Proposition

Hello Nihonjoe, Congratulations with Happy Hollidays! I plan to gradually conduct a questioning to determine the best speculative fiction novels according to the wikipedians. I wanted, that you to think and gradually create (if you like the idea) a list (as long as possible, but not more than 50) of the best genre novels of different authors, regardless of the language of the works (it is desirable: 1 author - 1 novel, but not necessarily) personally read by you. The list can include all novels containing speculative fiction elements - science fiction, fantasy and fairy tales, horror & supernatural fiction, alternative-historical, etc. The place of the novel in the list should correspond to the quality of the work and your impression received from him. The first novel in the list will be scored at 50 points, the last - in 1 point. And when there are enough respondents to collect - we sum up the number of points and get a list of 100 best novels. I hope for your agreement and that you will get 50 or less less read novels and there will be time and desire.--Yasnodark (talk) 13:01, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest in the case of consent the following example of the formalization of the list:

  1. John Brunner «The Dramaturges of Yan» (Template:Lang-en)
  2. Péter Zsoldos «The Task (novel) [hu]» (Template:Lang-hu), with respect.--Yasnodark (talk) 13:01, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Yasnodark: I replied on your page. Please keep everything there. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 19:36, 2 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2017 Military Historian of the Year and Newcomer of the Year nominations and voting

As we approach the end of the year, the Military History project is looking to recognise editors who have made a real difference. Each year we do this by bestowing two awards: the Military Historian of the Year and the Military History Newcomer of the Year. The co-ordinators invite all project members to get involved by nominating any editor they feel merits recognition for their contributions to the project. Nominations for both awards are open between 00:01 on 2 December 2017 and 23:59 on 15 December 2017. After this, a 14-day voting period will follow commencing at 00:01 on 16 December 2017. Nominations and voting will take place on the main project talkpage: here and here. Thank you for your time. For the co-ordinators, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:35, 8 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User group for Military Historians

Greetings,

"Military history" is one of the most important subjects when speak of sum of all human knowledge. To support contributors interested in the area over various language Wikipedias, we intend to form a user group. It also provides a platform to share the best practices between military historians, and various military related projects on Wikipedias. An initial discussion was has been done between the coordinators and members of WikiProject Military History on English Wikipedia. Now this discussion has been taken to Meta-Wiki. Contributors intrested in the area of military history are requested to share their feedback and give suggestions at Talk:Discussion to incubate a user group for Wikipedia Military Historians.

“Disruptive editing”

Hi. The other day, you semiprotected MOS:ANIME citing disruptive editing, which I can only assume was referring to me (being the only involved user affected by semiprotection). This confuses me, because the timeline was:

  1. I edited the page to improve it, explaining the changes in edit summaries
  2. A user reverted my changes without comment
  3. I posted to the editor’s talkpage about it
  4. The editor neglected to respond (and still hasn’t, as of this writing)
  5. I restored the changes
  6. Another editor reverted with an edit summary giving no reasons, but requesting discussion without initiating it
  7. I posted to his talkpage about it
  8. The editor removed my messages with an edit summary saying, “Duly noted”
  9. I restored the changes since he now seemed in agreement
  10. The same editor again reverted with no explanation and another request for discussion

I can provide diffs to back this up, if needed. I’m surely biased toward myself, but the only WP:DE behavior I see there, behavior which disrupts progress toward improving an article or building the encyclopedia, is from the editors reverting for literally no reason, especially the final revert ignoring my prior attempts to discuss the matter. If you do feel I was guilty of DE while the other editors weren’t, please, please explain why. Thank you. —67.14.236.50 (talk) 07:04, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If it had been directed only at you, you would have been warned about it on your talk page. The protection was due to a pattern of disruptive reverting by multiple editors. Keep it on the talk page there. Thanks. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:44, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for clearing that up, but how does semiprotection address that? Pretty sure I was the only non-autoconfirmed editor there. Feel free to relocate these comments if you wish, but I figured it best to just ask you directly. —67.14.236.50 (talk) 22:44, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
When I protected it, I didn't look to see which specific IPs were causing problems and edit warring. I just saw several edits by IPs and multiple regular editors reverting them. That indicates disagreement with whatever the IP(s) were doing. That there was only one IP involved at this time is largely irrelevant. Take your concerns to that talk page and work it out there. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 22:49, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to request unprotection of MOS:ANIME, in light of the above and the discussion at its talk page, so that I can implement uncontroversial copyedits. —67.14.236.50 (talk) 05:08, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As long as you obtain clear consensus prior to making the edits, that's fine. Make sure you clearly define on the talk page what you want to do and get that consensus before making the edits. If an edit war starts up again, it will be protected again. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 18:56, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Understood. Thanks! —67.14.236.50 (talk) 21:11, 9 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The committee has been in touch with Coffee in the past couple weeks, so your second point does not really stand. I understand my message may have been overstepping, but neither do I think one should be laughing around right after making another questionable block, when the context of past several weeks is taken into consideration. I thought that was grossly insensitive, in my opinion. If we were to raise the point that we are all human beings behind the screen, it has to take place mutually. I do understand where you are coming from, and I apologize if offense were taken. Alex Shih (talk) 23:19, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Alex Shih: The second point still stands, but you did already contact him, so you already took care of it appropriately. As for "laughing around", requiring someone to be totally serious in all interactions is a bit ridiculous. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 23:38, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Alex Shih: You realize that it's likely your post is going to be flung in Coffee's face every time they take a remotely unpopular/controversial admin action for the next couple months/years, right? --NeilN talk to me 23:52, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@NeilN: Of course he does, otherwise he wouldn't have done it. All my communications with ArbCom have been voluntary (mostly asking for advice). For Alex Shih (talk · contribs) to bring up private correspondence on-wiki, is a very, very troubling sign from an Arbitrator. Especially one so new to the committee, and especially when he is deliberately mischaracterizing the communications I've had. I am very stressed and disheartened by this entire situation, as I now feel like I have a sniper target on my back at all times forthwith. This type of behavior from ArbCom is not what I expected upon my return. *sigh* Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 14:49, 25 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Pounder

It's a borderline case, and it might well end up at the "CCH" spelling (probably not this time, but it would if an interview somewhere shows her stating she wants it spelled that way). You seem to be proceeding on the assumption that a raw majority of usage in sources is sufficient. It is not. To accept an unusual stylization, we expect to see virtually no deviation from it in the RS. In this case, there's quite a lot of variation, and that's only from looking casually for under 5 minutes. It's about near-uniformity in sources indicating that the average reader would be confused if we didn't use a particular spelling, not about whether a raw count shows, e.g., a 90% majority that someone can try to use as a WP:WINNING declaration. It's not a vote. No one would be confused "C. C. H. Pounder". Quite a few would be by "Ipod" [how would you even pronounce that? "ippud"?].  — SMcCandlish ¢ 😼  01:03, 24 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Biografer "correcting" others' talk page comments

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Biografer "correcting" others' talk page comments. -- Marchjuly (talk) 04:00, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Is this still needed? I only just now checked the peramlink you mentioned in the description, and it looks you'd need the filter to use irlike (case insensitive) instead of rlike. However I would instead recommend contains_any(added_lines, "foo", "bar") since that won't unnecessarily use the regex engine. Finally, a lot of people are hit by "extendedconfirmed". Would "confirmed" work just as well, for performance sake? Regards MusikAnimal talk 04:22, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@MusikAnimal: Someone asks this every month or two. Yes, it's still needed. The vandal that does this is really random and sometimes goes a month or two without doing anything. I'm fine if you want to change the filter to use contains_any(added_lines, "foo", "bar"), if you think that will work better. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 17:22, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That someone is probably me :) There's no issue using filters for this, but if it goes long enough without any hits it should be disabled, since the expense of the filter affects everyone who edits (and we've been running into issues hitting the condition limit). The example edit you gave wouldn't have been caught with the older filter implementation, so I've updated it accordingly. Let's see how she flies. I must ask again though, are we sure we need to target extended confirmed users? Thanks MusikAnimal talk 17:55, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@MusikAnimal: Confirmed is fine. ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 17:58, 14 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
