Hello, I’m just adding some historical information with some references. I’ve not removed any of the previously approved content. Will just add one more reference and leave it at that. Thank you. 2409:4071:E9D:5CCB:F1B3:2145:99EE:4B67 (talk) 06:27, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've left a message on your talk page as well, but I apologize for the revert (and have removed the warning). There's nothing wrong with your edit -- my revert was a mistake! Sorry for the hassle. jp×g 06:37, 10 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @JPxG – Didn't intent to interrupt, but just wanted to inform you that you created the GA review page for Presidential transition of Richard Nixon (nominated by User:SecretName101) on July 1, 2021, the day when the backlog drive started. I, being a page watcher of the nomination page, pinged you around 15 days ago on the review page, but you haven't yet reviewed. Would you be able to continue with the review, or is it abandoned. Thanks! – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 04:21, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A reminder to help at the Quad (company) page

[edit]

Hi there. I am not sure if you saw my previous request to come take a look at my edit request on the Quad (company) talk page, but in case you didn't, I am again asking for your help, which you kindly gave once before, and offered to help again if I asked. Thanks in advance. Tina at Quad (talk) 19:51, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Tina at Quad: I'm back now. Yippee! I'll take a look at it. jp×g 23:09, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I'm eager to see the article include more information about the company's extensive history, and I'm happy to help fix any unintentional "close paraphrasing" issues, as Royalbroil brought up. Tina at Quad (talk) 17:02, 19 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi JPxG! Happy Friday! It's good to talk to you again! Unfortunately, I had to block the bot that you created, HooptyBot. This is because it is not a bot that's approved for operation. To be authorized, the bot needs to either have a request for approval filed, be in an approved trial period by the bot approval group, or be approved and have the bot user right. This bot isn't in any of these categories, and hence is not approved to function. You'll want to start the approval process by visiting Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval. Once you're in the clear, an administrator that is part of the group will be happy to unblock the bot. In fact, they won't even need to consult me beforehand - they're free to unblock it whenever they wish or feel that it is necessary. :-) Sorry to have to do that to your bot and to you, but rules are rules... Just get the process started and you'll be in the clear and you'll be good to go. :-) If you have any questions, comments, concerns, hate (lol), let me know and I'll be happy to help you. :-) I hope you have a great weekend, and I'll see you around the battlefield. ;-) Cheers - ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 03:08, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a fucking moron. I forgot that bots that operate only within the bot operator's userspace does not need to be approved through the BAG. I've unblocked your bot. Please accept my apologies for the idiot move on my part. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 06:01, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Oshwah: It's no problem... as luck would have it, I was actually planning to file a BRFA in the next couple days anyway, to start running it on some pages in projectspace! I appreciate you looking out for the project, and take care. jp×g 11:26, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Oh nice, that's awesome! Let me know how the process goes! Keep in touch, and I'll see you around here and on Discord. ;-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:28, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Potential trial page for your script

[edit]

Hey there. I suggest running your script on a CCI that's primarily websites if you're looking for a trial run, like Sennecaster suggested. This one for example, has a mixture of sourced with refs and unsourced material. As it's relatively small, I think it could work for a dry run. Otherwise, any of the ones at the bottom at User:Moneytrees/CCI_Sort#Websites could be potential candidates. Thanks for making the script :) --MrLinkinPark333 (talk) 02:51, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@MrLinkinPark333: Hell yeah. I'm ready to run the script on any requested pages as soon as the BRFA is approved! jp×g 01:55, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

3rd Relists

[edit]

Gentle reminder: Per WP:RELIST if relisting for a third time ... Users relisting a debate for a third (or further) time, ... should write a short explanation either within the {{relist}} template, or in addition to it, on why they did not consider the debate sufficient.. Of course it is only a should and probably best to leave the discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simple file verification alone and recuse from further clerking at this time on that discussion, but ultimately your choice. Best wishes and thankyou for clerking support. Thankyou. Djm-leighpark (talk) 22:40, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Djm-leighpark: Yeah, I probably should have clarified. My reasoning was that there'd been a source mentioned earlier, but nobody seemed to have actually tracked it down or read what was in it. You're right that I should put that in the relisting comment (I didn't notice that it was the third relist) -- thanks for the heads-up. jp×g 01:55, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Actually I now noticed you;ve made a comment immediately above that, which, although obvious to me now, I'd simply taken as a comment by a discussion particpant and not a relister. I didn't immediately clock it as a relister commnet. Interesting discussion here. Thankyou for replying. Djm-leighpark (talk) 02:08, 25 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring, original research

[edit]

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
  2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.

Please don't start edit wars across multiple articles. If you have sources to back up your claims please present them on talk. -69.121.9.199 (talk) 01:43, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Johnpacklambert seems to be trying to ping you on his talk page. I tried to explain how to ping but his next edit was troublesome. Perhaps he might listen to you? Notfrompedro (talk) 14:09, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

That second diff has been suppressed, so I can't form an opinion on it. I imagine that John would benefit from someone to talk to, but at the same time it seems that TPA has been revoked, so I'm not sure what the wisest course of action is. An unpleasant situation, indeed. jp×g 23:04, 26 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jim Caldwell

[edit]

Wow that was a quick revert! How would one provide a source to the addition I added other than link to his page which the Patricia article already does. His page confirms he could not win a playoff game in Detroit and never received another Head Coaching offer in the NFL again. If you're looking for something more than his actual Wiki entry...don't know what to tell you! Thanks.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1702:2350:20f0:e03b:822c:eeb1:b426 (talkcontribs)

Let me take a look. You are right that he hasn't been offered a head coach position since -- after the Lions, Caldwell was a consultant for the XFL, interviewed for the Packers and was an assistant coach for the Dolphins... but I don't see any sources saying that it was specifically due to him not having won any playoff games. Have you got a news article from somewhere saying this? If so, I can handle the citation templates for you. jp×g 02:17, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for that. To be clear, I did not say that he was never offered another head coaching position in the NFL....BECAUSE of not having won any playoff games. In fact, he HAS won playoff games (at least one - with the Colts.) I probably am a lot more familiar with the NFL (in general) and Caldwell (in particular) than you may be. Caldwell was fired by the Lions because he couldn't get THEM to their first playoff win since 1991 despite having Matthew Stafford (a sure fire Hall of Fame prospect) AND Calvin Johnson (already inducted into the Hall of Fame.) The comment about him not being well regarded in the NFL is a observation based on the fact that the NFL will literally do SOMMERSAULTS to hire a black coach. Here we have a guy with playoff experience and glowing recommendations from both Peyton Manning and Tony Dungy, and yet still no one wants him. Of course, his abysmal college record at Wake Forest makes you question how he ever got a NFL head coaching job in the first place!2600:1702:2350:20F0:E03B:822C:EEB1:B426 (talk) 02:24, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Cr1TiKaL

[edit]

Hey,JPxG, i saw that you removed the "Personal life" section of Cr1TiKaL by stating that BLPs should not have sections based on primary sources. But i thought that rule applied to the article as a whole and not a singular section. I'm not an experienced editor so i could be wrong here but I'm just going by what i read at WP:BLP . Let me know if i can add it back, if not that's fine as well. Jaconsarto (talk) 03:55, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Jaconsarto: Yeah, there generally shouldn't be content sourced to Twitter or Facebook posts anywhere in a BLP; I just removed that particular section because that's the one I saw while patrolling recent changes (and, unlike the other sections, all of its content was cited to unreliable sources). If there's other stuff like that in the article, it should probably get the same treatment. jp×g 03:57, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
JPxG, but aren't the use of primary sources in BLPs covered by WP:BLPSELFPUB ? As long as the entire article is not based on these sources. The cited sources cover all 5 rules of WP:BLPSELFPUB as well. Jaconsarto (talk) 03:59, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I don't feel very strongly about the issue; you can add it back if you want, but I think it's likely someone else will roll through and cut it out for the same reason as me. jp×g 04:15, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JPxG:, Oh don't get me wrong, the Cr1TiKaL article has a lot of problems and i'm currently working on fixing a lot of them. I've already started talk page discussions with other editors such as L33tm4n and PantheonRadiance about it. I just didn't think this was one of them. I hope i didn't bother you. Jaconsarto (talk) 04:28, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
(edit conflict) Oh, it's completely fine -- I'd rather take a couple minutes and talk to someone than have people be confused! jp×g 04:44, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

/* Learning management industry */ removed reference to "top 3 LMS by institution in fall 2018" as the information is entirely outdated and irrelevant in August 2021

[edit]

Hi JPxG, apologies if I've breached protocols, I'm new here. I made three edits to this page. The first was extremely minor and I overlooked adding explanatory comments. The edit I think you are referring to though did have a comment, which was "removed reference to "top 3 LMS by institution in fall 2018" as the information is entirely outdated and irrelevant in August 2021". Have I missed something? Thank you LyntonHowes (talk) 00:20, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@LyntonHowes: Thanks for dropping by. I didn't mean to undo the addition of content prior to the last edit, so I'll apologize for that (and have restored what you added to the page). The most recent edit, I reverted on purpose, because it was removing sourced information -- an encyclopedia's purpose is to provide information that contributes to understanding of a subject, and while things often stop being true, things don't stop having been true. By comparison, George Washington has been dead for some number of years, and the Republic of Biafra stopped existing in 1970, but we nonetheless provide lots of information about stuff that was the case at one point. I've put the stuff in that section into the past tense, and added a {{update section}} tag (it would certainly be helpful to have current information), but the historical context is certainly relevant. jp×g 19:35, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

recent edit on The Beautiful Game

[edit]

You asked for a citation supporting my addition of the word "racist" to a mention of Matthew Simmons, the fan who Cantona attacked. Here it is: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2004/oct/31/newsstory.sport2 And here is the pertinent passage: "They discovered, for instance, that he had attended British National Party and National Front rallies and that, in 1992, he was convicted of attempted violent robbery when he attacked an attendant in a Croydon petrol station." In fact, not only was "racist" appropriate, but I'd add "violent" to that. Without this information, the Wikipedia entry is slanted in a way that makes including Cantona in a commercial for the beautiful game is somehow wrong or hypocritical. It isn't. Eric Cantona was a larger than life character, and the more we learned about the individual he attacked, the more people felt Cantona had been misjudged.

@70.69.248.63: The source says that what the guy said was pretty much indistinguishable ("So what, then, did Simmons actually say? 'Well, unbelievably, not much at all,' he tells me. 'It was so trivial I can't even remember. It was nothing offensive or rude that's for sure'"), so it doesn't seem like this was a factor in the incident, and there's nothing to back up the claim that he was racist. The article says he was "reviled as a racist", not that he was a racist. For a little context, I'd recommend you go through WP:BLPCRIMINAL and MOS:RACIST; subjective claims about the moral character of living persons in the voice of the encyclopedia are generally avoided. For example, David Duke is referred to as racist only in an attributed quote, and he was a grand wizard of the KKK, and our article on Adolf Hitler contains the word "racist" a single time ("It was in Vienna that Hitler first became exposed to racist rhetoric"). This is not done out of an admiration for either of these guys; it's just not very useful for an encyclopedia to describe someone as a "racist", "asshole", "piece of crap", etc (even if it is true). jp×g 19:27, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

recent edit on Monarch butterfly

[edit]

Hello,

This is regarding the edits I made to the article Monarch butterfly that was reverted by you. I only made minor edits, one of which was clarification, and other was to remove unnecessary political part in a science related article, an that part was already covered in the previous paragraph.

I didn't revert back to my version because I didn't want to engage in an edit war or cause any inconvenience/trouble, so I thought it would be appropriate to contact you directly. kindly consider restoring my edit.

Thank you!2409:4042:281F:21FD:514:3D80:1F4A:CECB (talk) 12:29, 27 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The paragraph before it already talks about how use of glyphosate is destructing their habitat, so I removed the sentence that was political. Also I reworded the sentence in the previous paragraph to make it clear that glyphosate use was impacting them. So I think the political part is redundant and avoidable 2409:4042:2E96:8A14:259A:21B9:8290:6B2C (talk) 03:36, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I guess it's not clear to me that "The Natural Resources Defense Council filed a suit in 2015 against the EPA, in which it is argued that the agency ignored warnings about the dangers of glyphosate usage for monarchs" is overtly political in a way that precludes being in an encyclopedia article, but other sections from the same article like "On 20 June 2014, President Barack Obama issued a presidential memorandum [...] The memorandum established a Pollinator Health Task Force, to be co-chaired by the Secretary of Agriculture and the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency" are not. They're certainly political, but they're political in a way that's directly relevant to preservation activities for monarch butterflies. Certainly, if a monarch butterfly was elected to Congress, we'd mention that in the article. jp×g 19:41, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I think the political part that directly impacts them should be included like steps taken to preserve their population, not some random group suing the EPA. And as you said it is overtly political2409:4042:2608:DAE1:3583:3C28:4444:A37F (talk) 15:44, 31 August 2021 (UTC).[reply]

RE: July 2021

[edit]

This is in response to the reverts and messages you left on my talk page on July 12, 2021.

Firstly, I did leave an edit summary explaining why I removed the content from the Xi Jinping article. As my summary said, the sources did not appropriately address the statements made in the content that I removed. Nearly all of them predated Xi Jinping's rise to power and subsequent statements, and the most recent one was an op-ed article. None of them directly addressed the statement that "China has taken very little action to achieve this, and China remains one of the worlds major pollutants with extremely poor environmental standards". For these reasons, I removed the content and left an edit summary explaining why.

Secondly, with respect to the Uyghurs article, I was not trying to disrupt Wikipedia's neutral point of view. I changed the heading to match what the content of the articles said, not because I was "adding commentary and [...] personal analysis into articles". That the section was mostly about the persecution of Uyghurs and allegations of genocide rather than just genocide alone is not my "personal commentary" - it was precisely what the section was about.

As per Wikipedia's guidelines, you should not quick to accuse others of bad faith. I am not trying to disrupt Wikipedia's purpose or insert my commentary into articles mindlessly.Dankmemes2 (talk) 16:46, 18 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dankmemes2: The topic you've chosen to edit on is one that's had a large amount of discussion, and like most contentious topics, what Wikipedia says about it is largely determined by talk page consensus. I think you would be better-served by starting (or participating in) talk page discussions rather than simply going up to the article and editing it, especially if it is a thing which has been argued about many times before. jp×g 22:57, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@JPxG: I understand. However, please refrain from jumping to accusing others of disruptive editing or bad faith. As per Wikipedia's guidelines, consensus is usually assumed with an edit until someone else changes/reverts it. My edit with respect to the genocide section on Uyghurs was an isolated title edit intended to better reflect the actual content of the section, not repeated or part of a persistent pattern which is typically required for disruptive editing to be determined. I also did not fight the revert. Dankmemes2 (talk) 17:35, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
