A short political rant
Dear WMF, thankyou for letting me know about the EU copyright changes - it is one of a handful of sane arguments I have heard in favour of Brexit (see here), although the odds of the British government not following with worse copyright laws than the EU are somewhat slim. Unfortunately my MEP is Nigel Farage who I wouldn't trust to go and do the shopping for me, let alone anything else. All he will do is shout "well that's why we should leave the EU" in a loud ranty voice, as per usual. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont)  09:52, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

"Professional" Admin-type query...
Ritchie333, do you think this demonstrates a true WP:PRIMARYTOPIC here? Or is this a WP:NOPRIMARY situation?... Just curious. TIA. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 19:08, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Without looking at any dispute that led to this query, in my personal opinion I don't see a primary topic there. In general, pageviews alone don't really establish a definitive answer, Google news / book searches and informed discussion tend to be required as well to cement an argument, but in this case I would be surprised if the answer was different.

Writing song articles
Hi, I'd like to improve Fool in the Rain and perhaps get it to GA-class, but I've never written a song article before. I spent an hour or so trying to find sources and this is what I found. I've been having trouble finding sources for the background and recording section, would you happen to know of any good places to look? Also, where do I find chart positions and track listings? I'm aware I can go to each individual chart's website and look through their archives, but is there an easier way? <b style="font-family:Papyrus"> Anarchyte ( work  &#124;  talk ) </b> 11:45, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm not a massive Zep fan (unfortunately Page and Bonham's talents in particular have been diluted by about 8 billion rock musicans copying them) nor an expert on Zep sources, as I have only one, but it seems to be a good one. Also, In Through The Out Door is probably their only album that's a bit "meh", in my view. Yesterday, I discovered I still had a copy of Dave Lewis' Led Zeppelin - A Celebration tucked away, that I assumed I had thrown out years ago. It's a pretty good factual book for just about everything up to 1990 and is written by a certified band expert who edited the Tight But Loose fanzine. There's a Google Books preview here. It includes a few pages documenting the 1978 Polar Studios sessions that produced In Through The Out Door. There's a follow-up book, "The Tight But Loose Files" printed in 2010. I can't find any official band endorsement of Lewis' work, but there seems to be a general consensus that he's the most reliable source going. Certainly, his research is based on contemporary interviews and listening to studio leaks of recording chat, so it's likely to be more reliable than the distant memories of the band themselves. Avoid "Hammer of the Gods" and anything to do with Richard Cole like the plague - they might be an entertaining read, but only if you force yourself to think that nothing in those books is factually accurate. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  12:21, 4 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Thanks for the help! I agree that In Through The Out Door wasn't the best, with Fool in the Rain being the only song I actively seek out. The Google Books preview for Led Zeppelin: The 'Tight But Loose' Files and Led Zeppelin: A Celebration look quite expansive and hopefully they'll contain some background information (though I may end up combining everything into one section). I'll reach out to Dan56 or Binksternet when I get to that bit of the article. Cheers, <b style="font-family:Papyrus"> Anarchyte ( work  &#124;  talk ) </b> 05:22, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Hello. They're not test edits, they're spamming a telephone number, and it's being repeatedly done by multiple throw away accounts ( is another, still unblocked, one}, so you might want to upp it to indef. The same number is being spammed not only as normal numerals but also as special characters (like the ones added by Dhonimahi), and with the letter O instead of a zero, to make it harder to search for.

ANI question
Hi Ritchie,

I have two questions for you. If I have worked on a section at ANI, like Disruption to Aszure Barton or User:Erescholar potential heavy bias in editing Eritrea related pages, no administrators weighed-in in awhile or at all, and there's nothing more that needs to be done, can I just archive it off. Or, is this like closurers that someone else needs to do it?

I've kind of enjoyed working some on the ANI page - it seems my niche is addressing incidents that aren't getting addressed by admins. Well, generally anyway. But don't want to wear out my welcome. Any pointers about things I should do differently?–CaroleHenson (talk) 15:42, 12 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Usually, it's best for an admin to close threads, but non-admins can with good judgement. You can close one if you think it's going to be more disruptive than keeping it open - let's say two editors are arguing, no admin feels action is warranted, and there's a general lack of WP:STICK-dropping happening. That's a good time to close it. Otherwise, I personally think you can just wait until the thread disappears off the active list into the archives. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:17, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Regarding Sarah Close
Did you see ? Also, could you please put sources into the article? Thanks, RandNetter96 (Talk) (Contributions) 00:11, 13 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, I have fixed up the article. It is not hard to verify that Sarah Close has a huge following on YouTube, has had a number one chart hit, and has played on the same bill as Justin Bieber at Hyde Park. I, meanwhile, have been playing music since before she was born and have achieved none of these things, so I say - fair play to her and I'm pleased she's got a strong grassroots following.
 * That AfD and template job on a new user whose only crime was to be one of the million plus fans of this musician was a completely boneheaded and reckless thing to do. If you read the discussions at WikiProject Women in Red, you will notice we have difficulty attracting women editors, and you've just done an excellent job in scaring one away this evening.

 * I have wondered that myself, RandNetter. It seems that your edits are focused on an over-zealous need to find fault. Have you thought about working on improving articles or creating articles, by chance? Or, joining a WP:Wikiprojects of particular interest to you and see what needs to be done there? Often projects have lists of articles that need to be improved, and often interesting conversations on the talk page. A thought anyway.–CaroleHenson (talk) 01:00, 13 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Thanks again. I have never been a big watcher of YouTube videos (about math or anything else); some of Vi Hart's stuff makes me think I should, and I recently enjoyed this one.  About -1/12: my feeling is that it's all about what the meaning of the word "is" is.  If I tell you that there's a method (one of many) that assigns a real number to sequences of real numbers and has the properties that
 * if a + b + c + ... converges, then it assigns that value to the sequence (a, b, c, ...), and
 * it assigns the value -1/12 to the sequence (1, 2, 3, 4, ...),
 * I don't think it sounds quite as mysterious. It's only (?) the choice to use the symbol "=" to denote this operation that causes any unease.  I quite like the section of our article on the subject that discusses the failure of a stable, linear summation method to sum this series (even though it's never been as well-sourced as it should be) -- in some sense, what it says is that if you want to assign a sum to this series, you had better be willing to give up something that feels natural.  What do you think?  --2601:142:3:F83A:2836:5723:BC35:E4C6 (talk) 01:03, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * That ties up with something I read about a long time ago. If you start with integers and try and divide 3 into 1; you can't use another integer to represent that, so you "pretend" you can do it and call it ⅓. Later on you discover you can't get the square root of -1, so you use complex numbers to "pretend" you can. And that seems to be the similar case here - you can't really sum a divergent infinite series, so you reinvent the ground rules so you can. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  10:04, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Interesting analogy! I wouldn't have thought of it, for the following reason: I think it's pretty clear that none of these other summation techniques will rise to the level of ubiquity that, say, the rational numbers or complex numbers have.  Maybe this is because there is no single one of them that is obviously "right", or maybe it's because the particular question they address is just less central to mathematical thought than "what is a number?".  But certainly this kind of broadening of context is one of the main ways in which mathematics has developed over the last century or two.  --2601:142:3:F83A:355E:CA3A:18ED:2F33 (talk) 14:50, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

He should have taken that advice. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  23:44, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Led Zeppelin IV
Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Led Zeppelin IV you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Ojorojo -- Ojorojo (talk) 15:00, 13 July 2018 (UTC)


 * I thought I'd try something different. See if my mark up is helpful @ User:Ojorojo/Sandbox3: [italicizied]=example for other wording, [regular]=comment. —Ojorojo (talk) 21:18, 13 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Like buses, you wait ages for a GA review, then three come along at once during a busy weekend :-/ I'll have a look in the next day or two, hopefully. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  12:10, 14 July 2018 (UTC)


 * No hurry. I'll hold off until you've had a look at what I've done so far. —Ojorojo (talk) 15:19, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

accidental rollback
Heads up, I fat-fingered the rollback button on your edit to Tony's talk page just now. I have reverted myself. Sorry! &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 16:26, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I saw the funny side. I don't know if this is of interest, but in User:Ritchie333/common.css I have turned the rollback button off as I never use it. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:28, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I appreciate it; I use it (properly) from time to time though so I think I'll hang on to it. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 16:36, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * On the occasions I have actually wanted to revert multiple edits en-masse, I go to the history, pull up the revision I want to go back to, click "Edit", then "Save". It's "fat finger friendly" and allows you to preview your changes with a diff to the current revision. Works for me, at least. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:44, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Uhh... I'm familiar with how to revert edits manually, but thanks for explaining it to me anyway. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 17:03, 11 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Another pro-tip: Hitting the "Publish changes" button when you're done ensures that your changes stick around for other people to see!  ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants   Tell me all about it.  19:22, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * While we're on the subject, as you can see in this thread, I don't think the Sunday Sport can be considered a reliable source for BLPs. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  19:23, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * And you would be completely wrong about that. I'm heading to RSN right now to sort this out and possibly ANI to get you desysopped and indeffed for besmirching the reputation of the veneareal venerable Sunday Sport. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants   Tell me all about it.  19:28, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Hey whoa slow down, some of us like looking at naked men and would like to interject that they are just as encyclopedic as naked women. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 22:12, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I take it you have not had the experience of my youngest son running stark naked around the house having been in the shower, simply because he's too lazy to get dressed. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  22:14, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

 * A shame that was deleted - I found it funny. If it's discriminating against anyone, it's the stereotypical bedroom geek's narrow-minded view of the world. I do admit that I think Hannah Fry's rather nice looking and has the sexiest talking voice since Sally Boazman. However, I also admire that she's managed to get a whole demographic of people (teenage girls who like shopping) interested in mathematics, and outlined the topic in such a way that it seems relevant to their lives and affects them in ways they can relate to. It is possible to have both opinions! <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  11:57, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

 * Never one to encourage third-patty YouTube copyvio linking, I'd never suggest "Countdown wankers outtake" is worth a replay. (But it has been there nearly 12 years now). Martinevans123 (talk) 19:47, 12 July 2018 (UTC)


 * I saw the comment above and thought "This looks like a job for me!" so I went ahead and brought this along with a reminder that fair use is not copyvio, and linking is not copying. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants   Tell me all about it.  20:44, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Somewhere on YouTube there is the complete 1-hour "Gotcha" episode of Countdown where Whiteley fell for one practical joke after another, hook line and sinker. But he took it in the good grace and spirit intended. What a great chap. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  20:47, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
It's never pleasant doing this stuff - I assume this is for making a valiant attempt at stopping DF from being blocked and failing. It's not an indefinite block, so he will be back (assuming he wants to do so). <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  16:18, 16 July 2018 (UTC)
