Bernie Finn
Thanks for your edits.

By the way, next time I edit BLP pages on "Wiki" I'll make sure to check Page 3 in The Sun for reliable information. -- Aronzak (talk) 11:01, 20 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Nooooooooo .... anyway, all I was really getting at on Bernie Finn is that if you add lots of content, and another editor reverts it for no obvious reason, then it's better to discuss things. The stuff you added is mostly okay and compliant with WP:BLP (if it wasn't I'd have done something like this), but just because you could break out the banhammers on somebody being non-communicative and disruptive, it doesn't necessarily follow that it's a good idea. Anyway, now the article has been broadcast on ANI and BLPN, I suspect more eyes will come down and improve it. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  11:16, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Rtichie333, the user has blanked sections again by Pmesiti, he's stated on User talk:Dsprc "Please leave my editing of Bernie Finn's page along. As his media adviser, it is my job. I will continue to delete your views and if I am banned I will take it further"

 * Translated into Wikipedian that means "I am a paid editor with a conflict of interest and I intend to edit war and issue a legal threat if blocked." Indef 'em. However, as I said earlier, you should not restore content cited to the Herald Sun without good reason. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  07:46, 24 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Care to make that comment on COIN? I'll try to raise source quality, though the more that this lady Mesiti cuts the more I feel like putting back.


 * Also, happy with my diff putting some content back? -- Aronzak (talk) 08:26, 24 March 2015 (UTC)


 * I think you should have left the article alone and started a discussion on the talk page. You've forum shopped your way round various noticeboard but missed out the one place that really matters. You might not like Pmesiti's actions but he does have WP:BLPSOURCES to back him up. IMHO you must be on very solid ground before you accuse a person of homophobia or racial hatred.

Could you please help me with the article, Stephen Dawson. Joe Vitale 5 (talk) 09:03, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

Tracy Park has been nominated for Did You Know

 * Hi, Ritchie! The reason you got this repeat notification is that the DYK nomination has been sitting there for weeks without action. I originally nominated it, but both of the things I had used as hooks were removed from the article in later editing. I don't offhand see another good hook, and I am about to withdraw the nomination - unless you want to suggest a new hook. I see that Giano felt the article wasn't ready for the front page anyhow. If it eventually becomes a GA it can go to DYK at that point. Is it OK with you if I withdraw the nom, or do you want to try to revive it? --MelanieN (talk) 14:46, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Melanie. I think we should just pull the DYK nomination for now, as the article has been improved far beyond my capabilities I think. I have several other DYKs in the queue, and have had many featured before, so it's not a problem at all to leave this. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  15:41, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

- there seems to be an issue with the history. The earliest revision I can get hold of is, which would suggest that created the article complete with A7 tag to go, which doesn't sound right. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  18:49, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
 * I had trouble figuring the history out too. Here's what I think happened, based on the history log : I saw the article earlier, before much work had been done on it, as I was patrolling speedy nominations. It had been tagged as A7 by Obi-Wan, and I felt that was justified (i.e., it didn't make a credible claim of notability). So I deleted it as A7 at 15:43 on March 28. But literally the very next minute, at 15:44, LingLass seems to have recreated the article, speedy deletion tag and all. I don't know how she managed that, she must have been keeping copies as she went along. The article still had its A7 tag, so an hour later I came across it again. But by then the article was in much better shape and no longer qualified for A7, and I declined it (not remembering that it was the same title I had deleted an hour earlier). So it looks like I both killed and saved the article, in the space of little more than an hour! Sometimes I don't know my own strength! (Or maybe my own mind.) Then after I had declined speedy, Obi-Wan tagged it again, and you removed the tag - quite properly since A7 had been declined by an admin. Anyhow, the article looks safe now, at least from speedy deletion. Advice to User:LingLass: In the future, create your new articles in your sandbox, or in a userpage such as User:LingLass/ICAME. There you can take your time and get it into shape before you move it into the encyclopedia - and you won't have people tagging it for deletion just because you aren't finished with it. --MelanieN (talk) 01:09, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Thanks! I’ll definitely do more of the citation work offline next time. The timing on this one was very frustrating, as I was adding in citations just as it was being patrolled. Then the whole thing got deleted just after I filed my deletion dispute. Lots to learn.--LingLass (talk) 01:36, 30 March 2015 (UTC) And, thanks for the help in making the case for not deleting the ICAME article. I still have lots to learn in editing. I appreciate your support.--LingLass (talk) 03:22, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Piccadilly
What a shambles of an article on a prominent road...♦ Dr. Blofeld  11:51, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah, ridiculous that "Idaho State Route 666" (or whatever) can reach FA status while this far more important road languishes in Crap Class. I'm on it. Charles Lethbridge Kingsford has a brief summary of the history I'm working on, and Faithorne maps have early layouts. Should easily be possible to get a GA out of this, time permitting. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  14:08, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Disgraceful isn't it! Even if we got it to C or B class that would at least be an improvement! I definitely think it's one worth getting to GA though. I'll try to help out as I work on the Ritz.♦ Dr. Blofeld  14:10, 23 March 2015 (UTC)
 * The "big WP:INDISCRIMINATE looking list" style reminds me of Denmark Street before I attacked it, but I had the advantage of knowing that street very well having visited the music shops for several decades, whereas I'm not too au fait with Piccadilly, as the Green and Hyde Parks nearby are a nicer alternative.
 * By the way, since you're here, I have had an idea for an editathon / meetup. In Broadstairs (at the arse end of High Speed 1 from St Pancras) there is a bookshop turned pub on the site of the Shrine of Our Lady, Bradstowe. They welcome drinkers and diners to look at the huge collection of books still there provided they are careful, and it strikes me as it's a rare opportunity to have food, beer and offline sources all together in the same place! I'll need to check with the owners that we're okay to just read books all day without buying them, but other than that I wonder whereabouts I could plug this? <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:27, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

I've done a bit more on the article, mainly history and bit of traffic. has done quite a bit of work on it in the past, so we can hopefully get him on board and have a 3-way GA / DYK out of it, like we did on Denmark Street. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  18:08, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

 * I couldn't help but notice this and wonder whether you've looked at the Survey of London? There are two works by Sheppard which may be useful: Piccadilly, South Side, the Early History of Piccadilly and the Rebuilding of Piccadilly Circus. I don't know whether Pevsner covered London, but that could be useful too. There may be more and I imagine that a lot of this is too detailed, but they could be helpful nonetheless. Best wishes, —Noswall59 (talk) 13:58, 24 March 2015 (UTC).
 * I rather like the list of notable buildings, if only because it demonstrates how many significant things are located on the road. A better way of establishing membership would be welcome, but I doubt you'll find a source that's comprehensive and up to date. A note on pictures e.g. in the infobox: they should really reflect how the road looks today. It was extensively re-modelled in 2010-11 and now looks completely different to photographs taken before that time. Older photos may be of historical interest, but should really carry the date in the caption. <b style="font-family:Times New Roman; color:maroon;">Modest Genius</b> talk 23:15, 25 March 2015 (UTC)


 * Re: Piccadilly Circus Public Lavatories: "On a state visit to the toilets in 1998 Prince Charles praised their 'wonderfully quaint and authentic charms' and when their closure was announced in 2001 he led a campaign to keep them open by attempting to have them declared a World Heritage Site": . Can this possibly be true? I guess we'll find out soon enough.... Martinevans123 (talk) 23:24, 25 March 2015 (UTC)

I've started going through the British History Online sources, and there's a heck of a lot we could include. (Go on, I know you all want to help - it's not my job) There's quite a bit of work to do in a short space of time if we're going to meet the 5x expanded criteria for DYK (I think it's about 30K - that's a lot!) but I think Martin has given us the hook right here, right now. About the buildings, I think it would be nice if the list had number, current business, date built / opened and description. The problem with the list as is it's got no frame of reference. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:46, 26 March 2015 (UTC)

 * The BHO sources do look useful. The Early History one provides what appears to be a complete account of the land and its successive owners down to Robert Baker. I may well have a proper look over it later or tomorrow and do some editing, but it does appear promising. Cheers, —Noswall59 (talk) 20:43, 26 March 2015 (UTC).

GA review advice
Hi. I just picked your name out of Good Article help/mentor and I wonder if I can ask your advice. I put a question at Good article help, but it doesn't seem hugely active and no one has replied.

Yesterday I reviewed two GA nominations for the first time. I'd really appreciate knowing if I've got it right! The two articles are Atlanta Flames (nom) and Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary (nom). I notice in particular that a bot so far hasn't added the GA icon to the pages...

Many thanks for your help.

Relentlessly (talk) 22:11, 29 March 2015 (UTC)


 * - The apparent problem I can see at a first glance is that these reviews are probably too short. What I do is generally the following :


 * 1) Run the "external links" script to see if any dead links pop up
 * 2) Estimate the page size and determine if the lead is long enough
 * 3) Start reading the lead, and mention any time the prose could be better or just different
 * 4) For each facet of the lead, ensure the body of text repeats it, and mention if it doesn't
 * 5) Read each section in the body, again mentioning prose changes
 * 6) For each citation, check as best as possible if it verifies the information immediately before it. This tends to take the longest - book and journal sources can sometimes be estimated against a Google Books source, but sometimes I will say "are you sure about 'x'" regarding an offline source
 * 7) If a claim is unsourced, or looks like it may be unsourced, flag it
 * 8) Check all images and check the fair use rationales
 * 9) See if there's anything missing in the article that should be included to meet the "broad in coverage" part of the criteria, and if so, suggest it

That said, I looked at Binky Brown Meets the Holy Virgin Mary and it doesn't seem to be too far off meeting the GA criteria. I would note the following:
 * "is a comic-book story from 1972" - does that mean it's a story set in 1972 or released in 1972?
 * "that gave him psychological torment" - since Justin Green is still living, that means the BLP policy needs to be adhered to, and something like "psychological torment" probably should be toned down a bit. I'd ask specifically what is in Hatfield 2005, p. 134 that led to this prose being written
 * What relevance has File:Saint Mary Catholic Church (Indianpolis, IN) - interior, statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary.jpg to the article?
 * The three large images at the bottom should be reduced in size

As for bot activity, it was taken off the queue in this edit, but the bot couldn't match up the review with its internal data structure for some reason. I've seen this problem before and raised it on WT:GAN but not really had a satisfactory response.

So there you go, some ideas. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:13, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Snake Pass
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Snake Pass you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days.

"Show me that I'm everywhere, and get me home for tea …"
Hi Ritchie. I wonder if I could borrow you and your copy of Lewisohn's Sessions for a couple of refs at "It's All Too Much"? You may remember I'd intended to work on Break-up of the Beatles – problem was, the more I looked into factors contributing to the break-up (McCartney's often-unwelcome assertiveness; Harrison's growth as a songwriter; Beatles post-Epstein, MMT, Maharishi/TM in India; Apple, Northern Songs, Klein, etc) and the relevant album & topical articles for the period back to 1966, the more … Well, let's say the more distracted I became. For now I seem to have settled on a pretty straightforward acid freakout: "It's All Too Much". There are some points made there cited to Beatles Bible currently, but they clearly come from Lewisohn. So I'd be very grateful if you could check with his book for statements such as:


 * "The track had the working title of 'Too Much'."
 * "Referring to the relaxed nature of the De Lane Lea sessions, Mark Lewisohn writes that Lennon and McCartney's backing vocals "started to waver a little, the chanted 'too much' eventually becoming 'tuba' and then 'Cuba'. It was that sort of a song."
 * Also, MacDonald gives 26 May for the second session, yet it looks like Lewisohn goes with 31 May?
 * Any mention of when handclaps and Ringo's tambo were recorded perhaps?

 * Big thanks, no rush. JG66 (talk) 10:31, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

Okay,, here are the answers. All the information you require is on Lewisohn's Sessions on page 112. The track sheet refers to it as "Too Much", the "that sort of song quote" is the last thing on the page, the second session was 26 May, and the percussion (it doesn't specifically say tambourine but everyone knows Ringo overdubbed tambourine on Beatles tracks more times than I've had hot dinners) and handclaps were recorded then. The third session on 2 June is on page 116, with David "High note on Penny Lane" Mason on trumpet, three other trumpeters, and a bass clarinet (and a partridge in a pear tree?) Harrison ran the session. So there you go. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  18:39, 2 April 2015 (UTC)


 * You're a star – thank you so much. At the risk of really trying your patience, I don't suppose Lewisohn has anything for those currently unsupported statements regarding the song's mixes? Or any comment about "too much" being a then in-vogue term meaning mind-blowingly good? No probs if not. With that last item, I can always cite this about.com piece – somewhat undistinguished as far as sources go, but the author, Robert Fontenot, has been identified at our Album Sources as being RS among the many contributors to about.com. Big thanks again. JG66 (talk) 19:17, 2 April 2015 (UTC)


 * - This isn't trying my patience, if you want to do that, try changing the genres in The Beatles (album)'s infobox yet again ... but seriously, Lewisohn p.112 says take 10 was chosen for mixing, and that George Martin wasn't around, Geoff Emerick assuming de facto production duties. Meanwhile, MacDonald 1997 (first revised edition) p. 228 says Harrison was "drug-mesmerised" and "under the influence of LSD". Then Lewisohn p. 128 talks about the 12 October mixing session at De Lane Lea by Martin (while the Beatles were doing Magical Mystery Tour background music), then p.162 mentions the 16 October 1968 remix to go on Yellow Submarine. Does that help? <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  10:45, 4 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Aargh, I'd seen that start up again at Talk:White Album. (Have to say, "rock, pop" seems kinda bland when one thinks of the obvious developments from the Pepper era – eg, blues rock, folk/country. But then I saw the caped crusader arrive at the album talk page, so …Moving on, people, moving on.)
 * Thanks for those Lewisohn dates for the "Too Much" mixes, that's great. I'd always suspected that the other mixing info given in the article was OR-ish – and it'll have to go unless something comes to light (maybe about the 2009 reissue). Seems that you and I have the same edition of MacDonald; from what I can see he's talking about the song/recording being "drug-mesmerised" – I've included his (always generous!) opinion under Reception. Cheers, JG66 (talk) 02:21, 5 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Yeah, it is a bit strange I've carried on citing the 1997 First Revised Edition rather than the 2003 Second Revised Edition that's on Google Books, but it's because the second edition specifically states it revised things from (amongst other places) Miles' Many Years From Now which in places reads like McCartney trying to rewrite history. And even then, McCartney has still said stuff is wrong. In any case, McDonald's POV is blatant, so it's easy to dodge. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  10:54, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

Adminship
Ritchie, have you ever thought about becoming an admin someday? Given how you've had lots of editing experience, quality article work, and good judgement, I don't think you'd have too much trouble at RFA should you decide to run. <b style="color:#454545">Snuggums</b> (<b style="color:#454545">talk</b> / <b style="color:#454545">edits</b>) 20:36, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

Well, I have a few skellies (I believe I told an admin to fuck off once), a lot of my experiences aren't logged (it would be interested to capture AFD / CSD "saves" though) and I need extra work and responsibility like a hole in the head. Still, I've been doing forum moderation on / off for about 20 years and have seen it all (hence my involvement today at ANI trying to find a resolution that doesn't involve WP:NLT banhammers at 12 o'clock), so I dare say I might well have a shot at the bit at some point. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk)  <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  21:07, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

 * I've been able to add some content, including her earlier BBC TV movie "Two Golden Balls" and more information about "Satisfaction"—and the fact that it was never filmed, and on her marriage to her NY-LON and Satisfaction collaborator Simon Burke. I've found a bio at her agent's site, but am not sure if that would be considered a reliable source for basic biographical information. I'd appreciate some advice on that question. Carl Henderson (talk) 19:22, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
 * The relevant bit of policy is WP:SELFPUB, which is what I would think her agent's official biography falls under. You can add basic facts, such as what films or TV shows she was involved in, or schools attended, but not much else. A good way of looking at it is if you've ever been asked as a reference for a former co-worker, the sort of things you'd be allowed to say there are roughly the same as my interpretation of this policy - basic, uncontroversial facts. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  09:45, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I will limit any use of it to that level. Carl Henderson (talk) 18:36, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
 * I've completed substantial research and revisions to the Anya Camilleri article, and would appreciate it greatly, if you could review and comment. Thanks. Carl Henderson (talk) 19:47, 13 April 2015 (UTC)


 * I've had a look, and done a few copyedits, but the changes look good, Carl. Nice to see somebody else who likes rescuing bad speedies! <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  19:57, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your review and fixes. It was an interesting project, but I worried I might fall afoul of some obscure BLP rule, so I might have over-cited things. Carl Henderson (talk) 20:05, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Great work, Carl, and welcome to the Heymann Club - an imaginary organization of people who don't just rescue articles but make them great. Ritchie is clearly the founder of this club, and I do what I can. (My latest A7-to-DYK effort is here: Huy Duc. Coming soon to a DYK near you.) I would like to nominate Anya for a DYK but I think I'm one day too late. Expansion started on April 5, it's now the 13th. Anyhow, I look forward to collaborating with you on lots of article rescues. --MelanieN (talk) 20:19, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
 * Thank you. I didn't realize there was a time limit for DYKs. Well, Now I Know (NIK). Too bad really, there could have been an interesting one: "DYK: British television and film director Anya Camilleri's father is featured on the Maltese 10 Euro coin?" Let me know if you see an article you think I could help with in the future. Carl Henderson (talk) 22:33, 13 April 2015 (UTC)
