Invitation

Hello, This is Paul! I saw you recently edited a page related to the Green party and green politics. There is a WikiProject that has been formed - WikiProject Green Politics and I thought this might be something you'd be interested in joining! So please head on over to the project page and take a look! Thanks for your time.

List of years in British radio

I have also created new pages for 1957, 1958 and 1959 in British radio on the back of us expanding the List of years in British radio article as I felt there was just about sufficient material to justify an article for those three years, especially for 1957. Do you think we should create individual year articles for 1956 and earlier? Rillington (talk) 14:24, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Possibly, I don't know how much information is available for those years, but there's probably a lot about various radio series that were on, people born in those years, etc. Looking at what we have in the later articles, my guess would be the post-war years would probably be easier. This is Paul (talk) 19:26, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
I think that's probably how those articles would look, especially initially. It would be good to be able to expand the series to at least all of the post-war years. Rillington (talk) 13:58, 24 September 2020 (UTC)

New Timelines

I have created five new timelines. They are related to UK sports broadcasters and I am in the process of creating a timeline for sport on other channels although I can't think of a relevant title. If you can think of one do let me know. I also plan to create a timeline for football on UK television given that there are articles on this on Wikipedia. Rillington (talk) 14:24, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

Great work on these. How about something like "Timeline of sport on British television", or "Timeline of sport on non-flagship British television channels". This is Paul (talk) 19:24, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. Finding a title is not proving to be easy. "Timeline of sport on British television" as a title would give the impression that the timeline covered sport on all channels in the UK. That's not an article I am planning to create as it would have to cover everything, and "Timeline of sport on non-flagship British television channels" could be seen as covering Sky Sports and BT Sport in addition to the other sports channels. Therefore you can see why I am struggling to come up with a title - and the article is now almost ready to be created. Rillington (talk) 13:58, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
Article now created and I eventually settled on Timeline of other British sports channels. Rillington (talk) 12:36, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
Timeline of football on UK television now created. Am still trying to work out a title for my timeline of sport on sports channels other than Sky Sports and BBC Sport. Rillington (talk) 14:54, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
Good article again, I'll have a look to see if there's anything else I can add. This is Paul (talk) 20:16, 26 September 2020 (UTC)

I'm now putting together a timeline for television news in the UK. Do you think I should include channels such as BBC Parliament and Sky Sports News? Rillington (talk) 12:36, 1 October 2020 (UTC)

Women's Football / Soccer Update > October 2020

WP:WOSO News: October 2020

Chelsea striker Bethany England scoring the winning goal in the team's 2-1 win against Arsenal at the 2019–20 FA Women's League Cup, February 29, 2020.

Hello WOSO editors!

What a year to be alive. As usual (but perhaps even moreso since there have been unexpected quarantines), there has been a lot of activity on player, team, league and tournament-related Wikipedia articles with all of the worldwide coverage of women's football / soccer. Great work!

Fall Focus: FA WSL articles

You may have noticed lots of great things going on for the top English league this year: the FA WSL. More (international!) broadcasts, top international player signings, improved media coverage, and increased viewership. Let's keep the momentum brewing, shall we?

Here's a sampling of articles that could use creation, expansion or updating. What will you commit to working on?

Historical Topics
Managers
Teams
Players
Other

See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Women's football task force/Initiatives/FA WSL to collaborate and organize with other editors.

Every little bit helps! Thanks for your contributions!

Did you know...

WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NFOOTY (which only includes the players in two currently active women's leagues)? Often times there is enough media coverage that meets WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. For more information, see WP:WOSO#Notability and be sure to tag the new article talk page with: {{WP Women's sport|footy=yes}}

Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues


Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!

Timeline of BBC One

A user using only an IP address continually reverts an edit I have made on the Timeline of BBC One page. I did ask for a dispute resolution but they said it was "premature" and that the dispute should be discussed on the talk page.

This user has now left a threatening post on my Talk Page, accusing me on disruptive editing, saying that "If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Timeline of BBC One, you may be blocked from editing." Given that dispute resolution will not get involved at this stage, I'd be grateful for an independent view on this. Any help would be appreciated. Rillington (talk) 15:39, 20 December 2020 (UTC)

The changes you're making seem ok to me. It kind of makes sense. My involvement in the discussion would possibly mean you could ask for a dispute resolution. Alternatively you could go to WP:3O and get a third opinion. This is Paul (talk) 00:12, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you for your comment and if you could comment on the Timeline of BBC One talkpage then that would be really helpful.
I did ask for a dispute resolution but this was denied and was told to start a talkpage discussion but I somehow don't think that whoever is behind the IP address is going to engage in discussion as the user merely reverts any replies I have made, literally seconds after I respond. There is a clip of the final closedown on YouTube and if a YouTube clip is seen as a reliable source as defined by Wikipedia then I should be ok. Rillington (talk)
