Your thoughts on my suggested solution at the FPoC page? Unless the change I've made has been reverted, you'll be able to see what I've done to the references section on the portal: moved it into the News box but as a collapsed section, so the reader can see that there are references but isn't bugged with them by default. A happy compromise? BencherliteTalk 07:18, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
- As I've stated at the FPOC, my preference is to return to the original configuration. The directors' opinions are that the references improve the portal, although Cirt did offer suggestions to hide them, he didn't state that they should be hidden. Imzadi 1979 → 07:46, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
The hell? Regardless of whether you agreed with deletion or not, there was no support on the Talk page for the move to this title. I was the only one who said anything, and I had clearly retracted my support by striking it out and saying that if it were moved, a different title should be used.

Hi Espresso Addict, I was wondering if you restore this image? It's non-free, but per this discussion I think I can change the fair use rationale so it can be integrated into the article. I'm hoping to take the article to FAC soon, perhaps this evening after I've given it another read through. Nev1 (talk) 16:52, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks very much, I'll get the fair use rationale sorted immediately. Nev1 (talk) 23:53, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
- I wasn't sure which of the two images to use for the lead as one showed more while the other was sharper. I don't have a preference either way so I'm happy with the change. It's a shame the previous lead image turned out to be copyrighted, it was rather good. Nev1 (talk) 16:12, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

[edit]You'll never get a holiday villige in Wrenbury, mate. Good idea though, as it's just down the road!
I think it's best to say this: Please tell me why you need to have links to a non-existent website. I know it's a nuisance and it isn't easy to find links again on www.cheshirewestandcheshire.gov.uk and www.cheshireeast.gov.uk, but Wikipedia needs working links, not broken ones. There is no reason to have them.

Centering at the Cheshire Portal
[edit]I've cut and pasted from another portal and it's centered the layout at P:CHESHIRE in IE8 at least (which is what I've got on my machine); I can check for Firefox later, but how does it look to you at the moment? BencherliteTalk 17:49, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Lovely. (And I see from the Portal that my English teacher would be pleased with you now!) BencherliteTalk 18:00, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Sentence fragments / full stop usage really is uber-nit-picking, and I certainly wouldn't oppose on that. As long as you're consistent in how you approach it, no-one will probably even notice, let alone care! I'll nominate Oxford when I've finished the "On this day" section, which is time-consuming. (Instead of doing that, though, I've just added a "selected panorama" box! Go enjoy!) And see Portal:University of Cambridge... something I did in a rush while I was in the mood last year. Not that I have any plans of making it as good as Oxford's portal, of course. I'm occasionally tempted to write a negative story about Cambridge at Wikinews just to sabotage it (e.g. "Cambridge hit by new elitism row", "Cambridge lose to Oxford yet again at something"...) BencherliteTalk 20:18, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
- Feel free to undo my edit at the intro (like you needed my permission...) - it's just me being deathly dull again and trying to get neat lines. Once you've got Cheshire polished up, then UofTabs would be a good one to improve. (I might even be able to persuade User:The Rambling Man to help, if I promise not to be too rude about Peterhouse!) Let me know if you do, and I'll chip in. I did the bare minimum to get it going, left a message at WP:CANTAB (but that project seems as dead as a dead language), and thought little more about it. I found it very helpful when compiling the OU portal to have all the academics and alumni tagged with WP:OXFORD's banner, since that made finding FA/GA/DYK articles so much easier with the various Recognised Content bots. A botrequest for WP:CANTAB tagging might be a good step. There are some lovely Cambridge CC-licensed panoramas at Flickr, should you ever think of going down that route.

Academic journals
[edit]Hi, in those prods I also referred to WP:GNG, which is an accepted guideline. Do you really think that we should bother AfD with these (rather obviously) non-notable journals? --Crusio (talk) 23:31, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
I really think you are exaggerating. this particular journal is not indexed anywhere, there is no claim for notability, there are no references. It fails not only WP:Notability (academic journals) (which was mainly thrashed for being too permissive), but also WP:GNG and any other notability guide that one can think of. It could have been speedied as an "unremarkable website". There were recently many articles created for Medknow journals and I spent a lot of time cleaning those with a shred of notability, this one I did not even bother, as I really cannot fathom why this one should ever be kept. --Crusio (talk) 00:11, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
- PS: I cite WP:Notability (academic journals) in those prods to indicate that they do not only miss WP:GNG, but they even fail that more permissive one. --Crusio (talk) 00:38, 22 July 2010 (UTC)
Your rejection to proposed deletion
[edit]H there. You rejected the proposed deletion of an article, writing that "deletion has been contested by creator on talk page". However, the article creator did not object against the prod on the talk page. The text on the article's talk page from the article creator is from July the 13th, while I placed the prod tag on the article on July 14th. Your rejection rationale thus raises questions. Any particular reason (like a Wikipedia Policy) why you did that? Amsaim (talk) 06:57, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

"Coaching"
[edit]Thanks for getting back to me. I assumed it was a lost cause since I fell off the list, and there were others much more eager for power. Yes, please let us talk about what is involved if you can deal with the time zone difference. Since my request I was phasing myself out of Hawaii for a while (since we moved out a year ago, alas). But as you noticed there are still more and more notable people I find without articles at all. (Some have an England connection like William Lowthian Green and Henry Nicholas Greenwell.) The only recent conflict was someone who claimed a DYK hook had be included in a single sentence in the article, while I sometimes like to juxtapose two contrasting aspects, and do not consider that (or, say, simple arithmetic) as Original nor Research. But looks like we compromised on that one. I think User:KAVEBEAR is one of the few admins in the Hawaii project, since he has moved some articles over redirects. But he is only active in spurts (and not sure if all his moves comply with the MOS). I am also trying to do some California articles, and there are indeed many "historic" places in Silicon Valley for example that do not have articles. If you are willing to just be a sounding board for me to bounce questions off, we can try that for a while. Cheers. W Nowicki (talk) 19:47, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Dear Friend: Thank you for your note about the issues surrounding the DYK nomination for the Saw-shelled Turtle. Unfortunately, I have beeen travelling and out of internet contact for a few days (I am now in Chennai, India and should be on-line until Monday). I cannot find the nomination and the notes anymore - perhaps I was too late in replying? Can you please let me know if there is any way of saving this nomination and, if so, what is needed from me?

DYK for Howard Martin
[edit]Thanks for your view. Surely the test is NPOV though? The guy is famous for a trial, acquittal and then being struck off. This is likely to result in something slightly negative, but surely it's not unfairly so.
The See Also section was linked to people likely to be of interest. Only Adams was potentially inappropriate, surely? Observers have compared Martin to Shipman, and Moor himself admitted hastening deaths. The link is clear and links are helpful to provide. IMHO. But if it helps get the DYK then I'm happy to drop it if you're strongly against it... Malick78 (talk) 08:17, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
- I see Martin's nomination has been removed completely. Does this mean there's no chance of a compromise? Even if I tweak the article? I could highlight the fact that Martin has said that he would like to start a debate on how people die and our attitudes to it. Would that be acceptable? Compromise is good :) Malick78 (talk) 08:21, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
- Hi again, after reading the DYK rules I presume you are referring to "Articles and hooks which focus unduly on negative aspects of living individuals should be avoided." So, the question must be - is the focus "undue"?? Well, he was struck off by an independent medical body of his peers. The BMA is known to be heavily in favour of its doctors, so there must be serious grounds for striking him off the register. I'd argue that the negative focus here is far from undue, especially since he has admitted hastening two of the deaths. NPOV seems to have been met. Any thoughts? Malick78 (talk) 08:42, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the thoughts... :) I guess the word that we should think about is actually the word "should" in "should be avoided". This obviously leaves open the possibility of including articles which are negative. We just have to know which ones can be included and why :) Thanks again.

Sorry for getting in your way, only after I did a number of edits did I notice that you had just created it minutes before and might be likely to still edit it, so I stopped. By the way, what is the source for the assertion that the journal is edited from Oxford and that the editorial office is located there? For the live of me, I haven't been able to find an address for the EO on the journal's website and the EIC is not in Oxford but in the US. Without further data, I would usually assume that the EO is where the EIC is (and where he is, that certainly is the place from where the journal is edited), but perhaps I missed something?

I visited Tabley House earlier this year, decided that the article should be improved, and bought the booklet. I have now expanded the article and feel that it is on the way towards GAN. However my sources are rather limited and wonder if you have anything to add to what is there. I have deleted the former Gallery, and changed the Reference section heading to Further Reading, but wonder if this really has any value (should it also be deleted?).

Apparently I missed some for this book, and it will take a week or more to get the book again. I can either withdraw the nomination for now (which I will do anyway if I can't get more details about the conference soon), or .... would it be possible for you to pull out some of the information in the Hodge book for me? I'll be happy to incorporate it into the article. However, I understand if that is not possible/too much work. Thanks! Karanacs (talk) 15:41, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:J Cell Sci cover (Feb 2008).gif. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not.

Interview for the 2011 Wikipedia Fundraiser
[edit]Hello Espresso Addict, (me too!) I hope you're well. My name is Aaron and I'm one of the Storytellers working on the 2011 fundraiser here at the Wikimedia Foundation. For this year's campaign we're seeking out and interviewing active Wikipedians like yourself, in order to produce a broader and more representative range of "personal appeals" to run come November. If you'd like to participate in this project, please email me at amuszalskiwikimedia.org. Interviews are typically conducted by phone or Skype and take between 30-90 minutes. (Note: This invitation is open to any interested Wikipedian — If you're reading this, and would like to be interviewed as well, please contact me.) Thanks!

Admin Coaching
[edit]Hello, Espresso Addict!
I've seen the Admin Coaching (Status) page, and I found out you are willing to coach one more editor. Thus, I would like to have you as my Admin Coach so I can prepare for my RfA in the future.
I was an editor a few years ago and became a rollbacker successfully. However, due to massive amount of time needed for school and studies (and competitions), I have taken a Wikibreak, causing a few years of inactivity. Now I'm back and ready to contribute, however, I think I do need some help, in case I forget anything important. One of my previous coaches, Gwernol, has retired. Thus, I would love to have you as my coach.
I have not made any significant contributions so far, but I will do my best to share what I know.
Thank you. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Thank you.

Deletion of 'Camp Agawam'
[edit]Dear Espresso Addict,
You deleted the article 'Camp Agawam' (along with Fastily and Oniongas) because of an expired prod on a non-notable summer camp. First of all, what is a prod and how does it expire? Second of all, the article is notable. Please answer and we shall talk further.

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity
[edit]
Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in over one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e., as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised and that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions). This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Hi! I'm serving as the wikipedian-in-residence at the Smithsonian Institution Archives until June! One of my goals as resident, is to work with Wikipedians and staff to improve content on Wikipedia about people who have collections held in the Archives - most of these are scientists (from anthropologists to zoologists) who held roles within the Smithsonian and/or federal government. I thought you might like to participate since you are interested in the sciences! Sign up to participate here and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on our to-do list. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at the request page, and of course, if you share your successes at the outcomes page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation! SarahStierch (talk) 19:02, 20 April 2012 (UTC) |
