Populating categories you create

I've noticed that you made a lot of categories with only one or two people in there, like Category:21st-century Israeli translators and Category:20th-century Israeli translators, each only have 1 person in them. Moving forward, could you spend some time populating your categories, like make sure you can find at least 5 people for them? That way they don't get speedy deleted, as well as that allows folks to see that there's potential for populating. Mason (talk) 23:14, 11 January 2024 (UTC)

Populating Category:Queer people by occupation

I've noticed several small Category:Queer people by occupation categories, like Category:Queer sculptors and Category:Queer painters. Could you populate them a little more to closer to 5+? That would be extremely helpful in preventing the categories from being merged to the larger parent category or accidently being depopulated. Thanks! Keep up the good work!!

Redundant categories

I noticed every subcategory in Category:Transgender people by nationality has a subcategory of Category:Gender by country, however the parent subcategories in Category:LGBT by country carries it too. What should we do? Example: Category:Gender in Russia has Category:Russian non-binary people, Category:LGBT in Russia, and Category:Russian transgender people as subcategories. Gringolar (talk) 15:14, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

I would suggest removing Category:Gender in Russia from Category:Russian transgender people and Category:Russian non-binary people and vice versa. Giovanni 0331 (talk) 20:53, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

CfD nomination at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 February 2 § LGBT people by sexual orientation and nationality

A category or categories you have created have been nominated for possible deletion, merging, or renaming. A discussion is taking place to decide whether this proposal complies with the categorization guidelines. If you would like to participate in the discussion, you are invited to add your comments at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 February 2 § LGBT people by sexual orientation and nationality on the categories for discussion page. Thank you. Qwerfjkltalk 17:38, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

This was closed with a different outcome to your proposal. Despite this you have gone ahead an implemented your proposal, choosing not to respect consensus. This looks like WP:Disruptive editing and could lead to sanctions. Wikipedia is a collaborative project, and either we go with majority decisions (whether we like them or not), or we leave.

I propose to use Admin tools to roll back the actions that you have taken in defiance of consensus at CFD. Do you have any arguments (grounded in Wikipedia policy) why I should not do so? – Fayenatic London 11:11, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

To remove these categories was a very unreasonable decision. It’s very questioning to me why Wikimedia cannot have LGBT category pages dedicated to one’s identity but one’s occupation is okay? I created the identity category as a merge between the original sexual orientation and gender identity categories and put all the identities into one place, along with pansexual, intersex and queer people. Giovanni 0331 (talk) 18:47, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

As a queer person, I'm disappointed that you're trying to override consensus. The categories aren't being removed, they were being made more central. Mason (talk) 02:55, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

And I’m disappointed that you refuse to understand that I was putting these identity categories into one place instead of leaving them scattered all over the individual LGBT category by nationality. I can understand removing [[:Category:LGBT people by nationality and sexual orientation]] and [[:Category:LGBT people by nationality and gender identity]] because they were not enough categories to fill the pages, so [[:Category:LGBT people by nationality and identity]] was a merge between the two.

Also, it baffles me that the fact that you’re a queer person, the category page upsets you? Giovanni 0331 (talk) 18:29, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Did I say I was "upset" by the category page? No. I said that I was disappointed in your behavior, and that in this case, my identity as a queer person seemed relevant given that you were trying to highlight that this benefited queer people categories. You are trying to subvert the consensus because you disagree with it. That is not how consensus works. The problem at hand is your actions, not the content of the category. Mason (talk) 19:36, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

The previous consensus on this matter was further confirmed at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2024 February 2#LGBT people by sexual orientation and nationality.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. – Fayenatic London 12:56, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrol

Hello Giovanni 0331!

• The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
• We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
• Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
• Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
• If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.

Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!

Please add non-diffusing tags to the LGBT categories you create

Please add non-diffusing tags to the LGBT categories you create. It would also help others tremendously if you actually populated the categories you make with more than one person. Otherwise they risk being empty. I've made the populating of categories request several times. Please try to add at least 5 people.Mason (talk) 01:43, 10 March 2024 (UTC)

As I've asked several times, when you create categories like this: Category:Swedish lesbian politicians please tag them. @Giovanni 0331 Mason (talk) 23:27, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Gender/Sexual Orientation Categories

Hello, Giovanni 0331,

It has seemed that for the past few weeks, you have been undoing the edits of Ernsanchez00, often moving articles from categories Ernsanchez00 created to similar or almost identical ones. What is the basis for your reverts? Are you tracking the categories they create and undoing their work? Could you please have a discussion with this editor so that you are not working at cross-purposes? You both are doing good work but it is better if you collaborate rather than undo another editor's work. A conversation on gender and sexual orientation in category titles might prevent this "collision" from occurring. Thank you for reaching out and communicating with your fellow editor. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:37, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

For instance, we have Category:American transgender actresses so it is completely within guidelines to have Category:American transgender male actors because of rules about diffusing categories. You shouldn't have emptied this category. I'd rather not revert your edits so could you readd this category to articles where it is appropriate? Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:41, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Similarly, without explanation, you seem to be moving all actresses to actors. Was there a discussion somewhere to perform these moves?--☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 21:50, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Yep I third this concern. This seems to be a broader issue including bisexual actresses as well. You expressed concerns about the category being too small on a user's talk page. However, I just started tidying up Category:Canadian bisexual actresses, and there are more than enough pages to support a category. So if your concern *really* is category size, then you need to take that up at CFD. Mason (talk) 22:21, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Again

Then take those categories to CFD instead of pulling Wikipedia:Disruptive editing. Until you take those categories to CFD, I'm going to undo those edits and those articles will remain categorized that way.-Asqueladd (talk) 10:15, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

It was already agreed that some of these category pages are liable for deletion if there are less than five subjects in the page, and the original creator of the category has no problem with me reverting the edits. Also, you do realise that your edits are disruptive as well? For example Paco León, in addition to being an actor, is also a screenwriter, director and producer. So I added the LGBT categories for this page. By reverting my own edits, you’re removing all these categories in the process. Giovanni 0331 (talk) 10:26, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

So why don't you propose the deletion or merging of the bisexual categories? Emptying them is not the proper procedure to get them removed.--Asqueladd (talk) 10:35, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

@Giovanni 0331 The basis of that argument (Wikipedia:SMALLCAT) is depreciated. Please stop deleting categories out of process Mason (talk) 17:32, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

AMAB trans men categorization

It's not the first time you add transgender male categories to AMAB biographies. Let me list some:

• París Galán
• Quentin Crisp
• And more recently: Brendan Jordan

They identify as transgender, not sure if they identify as men, but pretty sure they never self-identified as trans men (syntagma). Some are even trans woman (but not in a transhet way, more like turigirl/gaylm way). Stop diffusing into gendered categories when they don't explicitly identify as such. --MikutoH ^talk! 22:57, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

"Dubbing" section

Hi, I've seen you standardize the order of the dubbing roles following this sequence: Animated films, live action films, animated series, live action series, video games. I, on the other hand, have always followed chronology and quantity more (priorities: the section with the earliest credits first, then the more abundant section, and so on). Do you know if there is a specific guideline for the order of those sections?--Tespiano (talk) 00:02, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I usually do tend follow this sequence that you listed here regardless of what role this person did first. I start with films, then move on to television, then video games. No reason behind it. Giovanni 0331 (talk) 17:25, 20 September 2024 (UTC)

I guess it might be less arbitrary to follow chronology and quantity as priorities, what do you think about it? Otherwise, for example, why should animated films put first?--Tespiano (talk) 22:08, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

Stop spam

Stop spamming https://www.antoniogenna.net/ everywhere, especially in the lead. Read Wikipedia:Reliable sources and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section. Cavarrone 09:33, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Excuse me, but how does citing a source equal spamming?--Tespiano (talk) 14:54, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

Look at the links I posted above. There are multiple issues about https://www.antoniogenna.net/, first its use is questionable as it is a self-published database, then it is blatantly used in a spammish way, in the lead (against MOS) and to source things that does not require a source (eg. here, where subject's being an actress and voice actress is obvious and already well-sourced in the body of the article and certainly does not require an additional, poor-quality source to be added prominently in the lead). Let alone all the other unnecessary and unhelpful edits, i.e. the unnecessary changes in the infobox date format, the WP:OVERLINKing of words like "Italy", the addition of sentences without citing a source and so on and on.
