How is this article "damaging" to "their reputation"? The article is well sourced with proper citations from major business journals and news outlets, which is where the information came from. Have you contacted those media outlets to inform them that their reporting was wrong? -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 15:18, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
References to LDS Church name change reverted
Please provide context why you removed the name change I applied to the Saint Peter page. The name of the church referenced is the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. According to their public style guide, references to them as the LDS Church are incorrect. Also references to their members as Mormons are also discouraged. Here is the public style guide. https://www.mormonnewsroom.org/style-guide. Changes occurred on this page https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Saint_Peter. Revision number 874115708
Wikipedia is an independent encyclopedia. Our concern is factual information, not pleasing institutions. However, you will see that the edits I made did not refer to them as LDS Church but Latter-day Saints. As for "Mormons" being discourage, I recommend reading Mormons, which states that members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints are encouraged not to refer to themselves as Mormons, but gives no teaching on what those outside the Church are supposed to do. Mormonism also encompasses other bodies outside of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 17:04, 17 December 2018 (UTC)
As I said, Breitbart is not recognized as a credible source. It also gave incorrect information. She was awarded a Pontifical Knighthood, being made a Dame Commander of the Order of St. Gregory and the award was not given to her in connection to her work for women's reproductive rights, but for her work as a government official. She happens to support abortion, which may have caused controversy, but that is not the same claim. If there is/was controversy regarding her award, this needs to be cited with credible references that are not from a political opinion and commentary website. As far as categories such as "Liberal theologians" and "Anti-Modernism" goes, those are orphaned categories. They are not connected to any other categories on Wikipedia. Furthermore, they are too vague. What is "liberal"? It has different definitions depending on the context, and who decides what a "liberal" theologian is? "Anti-Modernism" has the same issue. It's too vague. Is it Anti-Modernism in the Catholic Church? In Christianity? In visual art? In architecture? It's not specific and does not improve the quality of the article. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 03:39, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
It did not say in the article that the medal was given to her because she was an a pro abortion activist, but that it was given to a pro abortion activist. I cited another source. DizzinessOfFreedom (talk) 03:45, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
Lilianne Ploumen is a Dutch politician who has done activism work regarding women's reproductive health. She is not notable because of her activism. There was no mention as to why the award was given or who she is, other than a "abortion rights activist". This implies bias. Catholic News Agency is a reliable source, but you didn't use the article ([1]) to explain the backstory or the reason for the award, which would clarify the incident's supposed controversy:
"Responding to requests of clarification, Paloma Garcia-Ovejero, deputy director of the Holy See Press Office, said that “the honorific of the St. Gregory the Great Pontifical Order that Liliane Ploumen, then Minister for Development received in June 2017, during the visit of the Dutch Royals to the Holy Father, is part of the diplomatic praxis of the exchange of decorations among delegations during official visits between heads of state and government to the Vatican.”
It explains why/how such honours are given and that they are not endorsements and have no connection to any activism or pro-abortion policies Ploumen was behind. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 03:49, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
The source of Bishop Fellay calling him a modernist is in the article. It wasnt in the edition summary. You need to look first before making such claims. DizzinessOfFreedom (talk) 03:36, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
Hi there. You've been adding a lot of International Debutante Ball entries to articles where, as far as I can see, they have no place being. I've reverted the adds on articles that I was previously involved with, but thought I should ask you what your position was before I reviewed the others. Cheers, Bromley86 (talk) 01:19, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ebenezer Lutheran Church (Greensboro, North Carolina) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. ssт✈(discuss)14:41, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
As was explained before on this article, you do not need to convert to be received into the Anglican church. You just turn up at the service and join in. It is not the same as more Catholic Christian denominations. DrKay (talk) 16:35, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
As I explained, that is not the case. People can and do convert to the Anglican Church from other denominations, as seen by many categories established on wikipedia. --Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 01:03, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
You can self-identify as a convert, but you do not have to officially convert. That is the point. DrKay (talk) 06:45, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. You have performed four reverts within 24 hours on a biography of a living person. DrKay (talk) 16:50, 11 March 2016 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Cozart-Coley House
Hello Willthacheerleader18,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Cozart-Coley House for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
2016 Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director Search Community Survey
The Board of Trustees of the Wikimedia Foundation has appointed a committee to lead the search for the foundation’s next Executive Director. One of our first tasks is to write the job description of the executive director position, and we are asking for input from the Wikimedia community. Please take a few minutes and complete this survey to help us better understand community and staff expectations for the Wikimedia Foundation Executive Director.
Thank you for starting this article. I hope you don't mind, but I added the article to Wikipedia:Wiki Loves Pride 2016/Results, which tracks new and improved LGBT-related content as part of an ongoing Wiki Loves Pride campaign. If you create or improve other LGBT articles between now and the end of June, feel free to update this page with your contributions. Thanks again! ---Another Believer(Talk)00:20, 5 June 2016 (UTC)
Order of the Dannebrog
Hello Willthacheerleader18,
I was wondering if you could help me figure out some particulars concerning the Danish honour system, Order of the Dannebrog. According to its Wikipedia page, the class "Grand Commander" is reserved to "persons of princely origin", namely "Royals with close family ties with the Danish Royal House." However, I've found a source for the Danish vice admiralA. H. Vedel that lists him as a "Knight Grand Commander." I have not found anything explaining such a title. Could you help me research this end? It's possible the the actually title Vedel held was simply lost in translation by the producer of the source. Thank you for hearing me out!

Invitation to the African Destubathon
Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:14, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
Your recent edits
Hi there. I couldn't help but notice that you appear to be going through articles about US towns to see if they mention the name of the person they are named after, then you're adding the name to the infobox. The problem is, often the name listed in the article is unsourced, and could be incorrect. I reverted your edits to Hillsborough, North Carolina and Zebulon, North Carolina. Before continuing, could I suggest you go back and check all the edits you've made to be sure they are in fact correct and properly sourced? Thanks a lot. Magnolia677 (talk) 21:08, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
The information I added to the infobox was already sourced in the article, but per your request I have copied the (already provided) links and used them again as references in the infobox. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 23:44, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I'm Robvanvee. Willthacheerleader18, thanks for creating Ballet Zürich!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. It could use a few more footnotes in the history section. Otherwise nice work!
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Robvanvee13:44, 26 November 2016 (UTC)
I see that you reverted my change to the infobox on the Delta Chi Xi page. The reason that I removed them is that an entry with a free label will not be properly displayed if there is not a label to go with it. So if a free_label value is added to indicate what those three things are, I'm just fine with it.Naraht (talk) 20:30, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
House of Cavendish
Hi I saw that you reverted my edit. The use of "House of" is exclusively reserved for Royal dynasties in English. I am in the middle of correcting a certain number of pages including the Cavendish family. Please read House of for more information. The term "House of" has unfortunately been made popular by the series game of Thrones. On my mother's side the family is descended from a certain number of aristocratic families and none use the term "House of". Once I have managed to move the Cavendish family page to its correct title I will correct this page. --Domdeparis (talk) 09:12, 10 March 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Women in Red's July 2017 worldwide online editathons.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
Regarding your recent edit at Greensboro massacre. Thought you might wish to see a discussion involving that subject. It took place on my Talk page, so it's unlikely you would know that it was being discussed.
Per your revert, stating that I "want to develop the idea that white juries inherently favor Nazis and the Klan" is a mistaken view on your part... just like I might be mistaken to say that you are attempting to whitewash the article. -Location (talk) 22:15, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
I assume good intentions on your part, which is why I said IF you wanted to develop that line of reasoning, it should be done in the body of the text. I do not assume good intentions on the part of the Chicago newspaper writer. He went out of his way to try to paint the jury decision (if not also the jury members) as racist. It is an inflammatory bit of writing. More yellow journalism than professional journalism. But you were only citing words from the article, which is quite fair in our world. But it does misrepresent the events. The "journalist" had only one reason to mention an all-white jury... to infer some form of racial prejudice. The article was rife with that innuendo, but came up short when it came to supporting facts. Both the jurors and the prosecutor who carried the case for the State support the contention that politics was the deciding factor. If you wanted to say that a Southern jury decided against communists, I think you would be on solid ground, with a good bit of supporting evidence. But all-white...? Why? Gulbenk (talk) 23:40, 10 September 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for your thoughtful response. I re-read the Chicago Tribune article more carefully and while I don't believe it to be be yellow journalism, it is clearly an opinion piece and you are correct that it should not be cited the way I placed it in the article. (I did not notice the first time about that it was in the "Perspective" section.) It looks like Charles Madigan, who typically does have a left-of-center POV, thought that the jury should have decided the case differently and he drew attention to the view that many blacks - in context with other contemporary cases - viewed the system of justice as racist. And you are correct that the unnamed author for The New York Times used described the jury that way without any context leaving the reader in infer something from innuendo. I imagine a lot could be written on the various POVs regarding the jury and the verdit (e.g. it does appear as though jury may have disliked communists more than any like or dislike for the Klan[2]). Anyway, my apologies. -Location (talk) 02:39, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
The reason I reverted your edits are 1)a very low level minor league hockey team's cheerleaders are not notable for the introduction (the team has not played yet, hence the lack of a body) and 2)your source is an dance class website that makes no mention of the cheer squad. The Thunderbirds' own website makes no mention of a cheer squad so I see no reason for it to be included here, even if you citation was better. (It would also be odd for as even most NHL/AHL/ECHL teams do not have a cheer team, they typically have "ice girls" which can be a dance team but often just come out at intermissions and sweep the ice and interact with fans.) I should also note that based on your edit content, region-based edits, and user name, if you have any affiliation with the organizations you are editing, you absolutely MUST read WP:COI. Yosemiter (talk) 02:48, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
I did not contest your removel the second time, so I see no reason for this post. The website I used did indeed reference the team. However, I understand that it is not considered notable enough for an article. My username is from when I created this account over seven years ago. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 19:48, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
Usually if I remove info twice, I try to explain why per WP:BRD, so this post was as much for me as it was for you. The source/dance class website had one mention for the Thunderbirds, but as I said, there was nothing there about the squad. A news article or a team article about the cheerleaders would have been better. Yosemiter (talk) 21:12, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Lady Kitty Spencer, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Also please note that the replacement text in Transfeminine exactly(?) duplicates article Sex and gender distinction (which has been around in same form over a year), so methinks the IP was not "on the good side".
Also, plagiarism to or fro WP in ext page [3] and, apparently, several others (on balance, they are 'quoting' WP?)
I believe very little at first glance here. 'Vandalism' as a judgement cannot be just what meets the eye, but what the page histories and user contributions reveal. Useful side effect of checking out the user contributions is cleaning up all the other badnesses executed, when indeed they are vandals.

I have no idea to what you are referring. If it is about information in an article you have contributed to then I would suggest you include a link to it.

Comment I went back and looked through my edits to find what you were referring to and realized you are upset because I reverted an edit you made on Figure Eight Island. The information you added to the article was not cited with any references. On Wikipedia, material that has no credible source can be removed at any time from an article. I highly doubt you consulted 49 individuals about adding one sentence to an article. And even if you had, you should provide a reference with proper citation. Policy stands with me on this. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 00:17, 13 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello friend, I hope you are fine. You are right to point out that few of these models and celebrities are linked to the Storm Model Management through reliable, third-party sources.

Hello, Willthacheerleader18. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Raleigh, for deletion because I don't think it meets our criteria for inclusion. If you don't want the article deleted:
remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
save the page
Also, be sure to explain why you think the article should be kept in your edit summary or on the article's talk page. If you don't do so, it may be deleted later anyway.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Raleigh until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 20:02, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
Red Links
I will not stop creating the single Ligon Flynn Red Link in the Figure Eight Island article. Per WP:Red Link, there is no problem with having Red Links for articles that are either forthcoming or should be. Ligon Flynn actually happens to be a noted architect, with a distinctive architectural design imprint, a storied, award-winning career. A study conducted in 2008 showed that red links helped Wikipedia grow, and keep articles from being orphaned from the start. So please stop stripping the Red Link from the article. Thanks. 842U (talk) 10:36, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
You have been blocked temporarily from editing for Edit-warring at Rachel Yeoh and Michelle Yeoh (socialite). The edit-warring was all the more unacceptable because you posted a warning about edit-warring to the other editor involved, making it clear both that you are aware of Wikipedia's edit-warring policy and that the dispute in which you were involved was an edit-war. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.
I understand that engaging in an edit war is against Wikipedia policy and I will not do it again in the future. I was attempting to prevent another editor from continuously making disruptive edits, and on the two occasions I reached out to admins for help I did not receive any, including a request for third-party intervention because the situation was not "discussed on the article's talk page", due to the fact that the other editor refused to engage with me on the talk page despite my multiple requests. Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 20:31, 12 October 2018 (UTC)
Which only deepened the disruption and made you also an edit warrior. It is not up to admins to step into every content dispute. You need to articulate the steps to take short of seeking an admin intervention.-- Dlohcierekim (talk) 23:31, 12 October 2018 (UTC)

since you are the only other genuine contributor there wanted to check from you on your conclusion. The only sources are self published. I have a strong feeling that this article is a hoax, Wikipedia rules are strictly applied to WP:BLP and even if there was a one off chance that this person is indeed genuine royal and not a hoax, notability is not WP:NOTINHERITED.

Using proper titles for Ethiopian royalty and nobility
Please adhere to the proper titles for Ethiopian nobility and royalty. H.I.H. is reserved for members of the royal family by blood not by marriage. Also, the male descendants inherit the title of prince but "princess" is not inherited nor is it automatic at the point of marriage, but rather it is bestowed by the emperor at his discretion after (1) a woman of the royal family comes of age or (2) when a woman is married into the family. This is solely at teh discretion of the Emperor. There are many members of the royal family who have not been bestowed the title and are direct descendants of a crowned monarch. These mistaken appropriations are the application of western views of monarchic structure to a much older Ethiopian monarchy. Please see the below information available on Wikipedia on "Ethiopian aristocratic and court titles" which outlines the proper uses of titles and honorifics.
Imperial and royal titles[edit]
Negusa Nagast[edit]
Emperor Tewodros II of the Ethiopian Empire.
The Negusa Nagast (Ge'ez: ንጉሠ ነገሥት nəgusä nägäst, "King of Kings") was the Emperor of Ethiopia. Although several kings of Aksum used this style, until the restoration of the Solomonic dynasty under Yekuno Amlak, rulers of Ethiopia generally used the style of Negus, although "King of Kings" was used as far back as Ezana.
The full title of the Emperor of Ethiopia was Negusa Nagast and Seyoume Igziabeher (Ge'ez: ሥዩመ እግዚአብሔር; "Elect of God"). The title Moa Anbessa Ze Imnegede Yehuda ("Conquering Lion of the Tribe of Judah") always preceded the titles of the Emperor. It was not a personal title but rather referred to the title of Jesus and placed the office of Christ ahead of the Emperor's name in an act of Imperial submission. Until the reign of Yohannes IV, the Emperor was also Neguse Tsion (Ge'ez: ንጉሠ ጽዮን, nəgusä tsiyon), "King of Zion"), whose seat was at Axum, and which conferred hegemony over much of the north of the Empire.
The Emperor was referred to by the dignities of the formal Girmawi (Ge'ez: ግርማዊ, gärimawi, "His Imperial Majesty"), in common speech as Janhoy (Ge'ez: ጃንሆይ janihoy, "Your [Imperial] Majesty, or lit. "sire" ), in his own household and family as Getochu (our Master in the plural), and when referred to by name in the third person with the suffix of Atse (effectively "Emperor", i.e. Atse Menelik).
All formal speech concerning the Emperor was in the plural, as was his own speech; Haile Selassie, for instance, referred to himself in the first-person plural at all times, even in casual conversation and when speaking in French (however this was not the case when he spoke in English, in which he was not fully fluent).[2]
Negus[edit]
Main article: Negus
King Haile Selassie of the Solomonic dynasty.
A Negus (Ge'ez: ንጉሥ nəgus, "king") was a hereditary ruler of one of Ethiopia's larger provinces, over whom collectively the monarch ruled, thus justifying his imperial title. The title of Negus was awarded at the discretion of the Emperor to those who ruled important provinces, although it was often used hereditarily during and after the Zemene Mesafint. The rulers of Begemder, Shewa, Gojjam, Wollo, all held the title of Negus at some point, as the "Negus of Shewa", "Negus of Gojjam", and so forth.
During and after the reign of Menelik II virtually all of the titles either lapsed into the Imperial crown or were dissolved. In 1914, after having been appointed "Negus of Zion" by his son Lij Iyasu (Iyasu V), Mikael of Wollo, in consideration of the hostile feelings this provoked in of much of the nobility in northern Ethiopia (particularly Le'ul Ras Seyoum Mengesha, whose family had resented being denied the title by Menelik), who were now technically made subordinate to him, instead elected to use the title of Negus of Wollo. Tafari Makonnen, who later became Emperor Haile Selassie, was bestowed the title of Negus in 1928; he would be the last person to bear the title.[3]
Despite this, European sources referred to the Ethiopian monarch as the Negus well into the 20th century, switching to Emperor only after the Second World War- around the same time the name Abyssinia fell out of use in favour of Ethiopia in the west.
Le'ul[edit]
Le'ul (Ge'ez: ልዑል lə‘ul, "Prince") was a princely style used by sons and grandson of the Emperor. It conferred upon its holder the title of Imperial Highness. The style first came into use in 1916, following the enthronement of Empress.Zewditu
Abeto[edit]
Abetohun (Ge'ez: አቤቶሁን abētōhun) or Abeto (Ge'ez: አቤቶ abētō) -- Prince. Title reserved for males of Imperial ancestry in the male line. Title fell into disuse by the late 19th century. Lij Iyasu attempted to revive the title as Abeto-hoy ("Great Prince"), and this form is still used by the current Iyasuist claimant Girma Yohannes Iyasu.
Ras[edit]
Ras (Ge'ez: ራስ, translit. ras, lit. 'head', compare with Arabic Rais) -- One of the powerful non-imperial; historian Harold G. Marcus equates this to a duke. The combined title of Leul Ras was given to the heads of the cadet branches of the Imperial dynasty, such as the Princes of Gojjam, Tigray and the Selalle sub-branch of the last reigning Shewan Branch.
Bitwoded[edit]
Bitwoded (Ge'ez: ቢትወደድ, translit. bitwädäd, lit. 'beloved') -- An office thought to have been created by Zara Yaqob who appointed two of these, one of the Left and one of the Right. These were later merged into one office, which became the supreme grade of Ras, "Ras Betwadad". Marcus equates the style to an earl.
Lij[edit]
Lij (Ge'ez: ልጅ, translit. ləj, lit. 'child') -- Title issued at birth to sons of members of the Mesafint, the hereditary nobility.
Men's military titles[edit]
Further information: Ethiopian military titles
Dejazmach (ደጃዝማች däjazmač, "Commander or General of the Gate") -- a military title meaning commander of the central body of a traditional Ethiopian armed force composed of a vanguard, main body, left and right wings and a rear body.[4] Marcus equates this to a count. The heirs of the "Leul Rases" were titled Leul Dejazmach to elevate them above the non-Imperial blood Dejazmaches.
Fit'awrari (ፊትአውራሪ fit’awrari, Commander of the Vanguard) -- a military title meaning commander of the vanguard of a traditional Ethiopian armed force. Marcus equates this to a baron.
Grazmach (ግራዝማች grazmač, Commander of the Left wing) -- a military title meaning commander of the left wing of a traditional Ethiopian armed force.[4]
Qenyazmach (ቀኛዝማች qəñazmač, Commander of the Right wing) -- a military title meaning commander of the right wing of a traditional Ethiopian armed force.[4]
Azmach (አዝማች azmač, Commander of the Rearguard) -- a military title meaning commander of the rearguard of a traditional Ethiopian armed force. This was usually a trustworthy counselor and the leader's chief minister.[4]
Balambaras (ባላምባራስ balambaras, Commander of an Amba or fortress) -- these could also be commanders of the guards, artillery or cavalry of a traditional Ethiopian armed force, basically a man entrusted with important commands.[4]
Women's honorifics[edit]
Nigiste Negestatt - "Empress Regnant" (ንግሥተ ነገሥታት nígəstä nəgəstât) (in her own right) Literally "Queen of Kings," or "Queen of Queens," or "female ruler of an empire." Zewditu (reigned 1917–1930) was the only woman to be crowned in Ethiopia in her own right since ancient times. Rather than take the title Itege, which was reserved for empress consorts, Zewditu was given the feminized version of Nigusa Nigist to indicate that she reigned in her own right. She was accorded the dignity of Girmawit ("Imperial Majesty") and the title of Siyimta Igzi'abher (ሥይምተ እግዚአብሔር səyəmtä ’əgziabhēr, "Elect of God"). She was commonly referred to as Nigist "Queen". The 1955 Constitution of Ethiopia excluded women from the succession to the throne so this title was effectively abolished.
Itege (እቴጌ ’ətēgē) "empress consort". Empresses were generally crowned as consorts by the emperor at the Imperial Palace. However, Taytu Betul, consort of Menelik II, became the first Itege to be crowned by the Emperor at church rather than at the Palace. Her coronation took place on the second day of the emperor's coronation holiday. Menen Asfaw became the first Itege to be crowned by the archbishop on the same day and during the same ceremony as her husband, Haile Selassie. The Itege was entitled to the dignity of Girmawit ("Her/Your Imperial Majesty").
Le'elt (ልዕልት lə‘əlt) "Princess". Title came into use in 1916 upon the enthronement of Zewditu. Reserved at birth for daughters of the monarch and patrilineal granddaughters. Usually bestowed on the wives of "Leul Rases" as well as the monarch's granddaughters in the female line upon their marriages. The notable exception to the rule was Leult Yeshashework Yilma, Emperor Haile Selassie's niece by his elder brother, who received the title with the dignity of "Highness" from Zewditu upon the princess' marriage to Leul Ras Gugsa Araya Selassie in 1918, and then again from her uncle upon his coronation in 1930 with the enhanced dignity of "Imperial Highness".
Emebet Hoy (እመቤት ሆይ ’əmäbēt hōy, "Great Royal Lady") --Reserved for the wives of those bearing the title of Leul Dejazmach and other high ranking women of Royal blood.
Emebet (እመቤት, "Royal Lady" ’əmäbēt) --Reserved for the unmarried granddaughters of the monarch in the female line (they were generally granted the title of leult upon marriage), and to the daughters of the "Leul Rases".
Woyzero (ወይዘሮ wäyzärō, Dame) -- Originally high noble title that over time came to be the general accepted form of address for married women in general (Mrs.). It was still awarded by the Emperor on rare occasions in the 20th century to non-royal women, and sometimes with the higher grade of Woizero Hoy (Great Dame).
Woyzerit (ወይዘሪት wäyzärit, Lady) -- Originally high ranking noble title for unmarried women, now the general accepted form of address for unmarried women in general (Miss). It was sometimes awarded with the added distinction of Woizerit Hoy (Great Lady), but only to widows.
Important regional offices[edit]
Bahr negus (ባህር ንጉሥ bahər nəgus, "ruler of the Seas") -- King of the territories north of the Mareb River, and as a result the most powerful office in medieval Ethiopia after the Emperor himself. As a result of the revolts of the Bahr negus Yeshaq and the self-determination of Medri Bahri in modern-day Eritrea in the later 16th century, this office lost much of its power. Although men are mentioned as holding this office into the early 18th century, they were of little consequence.[citation needed]
Meridazmach (መርዕድ አዝማች märəd ’azmač, "Fearsome Commander" or "supreme general") -- This title is related to "Dejazmach" or "Kenyazmach" above. Beginning in the 18th century, this came to denote the ruler of Shewa until Sahle Selassie dropped it in favor of the title of Negus. Later revived in 1930 in Wollo for Crown Prince Asfaw Wossen.
Mesfin Harar (መስፍነ ሐረር mäsfinä ḥarar) --Duke of Harar. Hereditary title created in 1930 for Emperor Haile Selassie's second son, Prince Makonnen. (The wife of the Mesfin was properly titled Sefanit, but was more commonly referred to as the Mesfinit). Upon the death of the Prince, his son Prince Wossen Seged was elevated as Mesfin Harar and would currently be second in line in the line of succession if Ethiopia were still a monarchy after Prince Zera Yacob.
Nebura ed (ንቡረ እድ nəburä ’əd, one put in office through the laying of hands") -- civil governor of Axum reserved for the clergy. Also called Liqat Aksum. Because of the historical and symbolic importance of this city, the rules of precedence promulgated in 1689 ranked the Nebura ed ahead of all of the provincial governors. Indeed, when the title was granted with Ras Warq (the right to wear a coronet), it was higher than even the title of Ras. Although a civil title granted by the Emperor, it was usually bestowed on a clergyman due to Axum's status as the holiest site of the Ethiopian Orthodox Church within the country.[5] The title of Nebure ed was also granted to the administrator of the Church of St. Mary at Addis Alem, founded by Menelik II west of Addis Ababa. However the Nebura ed of Addis Alem was much further down the hierarchy than the Nebura ed of Axum, and was not accorded the Ras Warq.
Tigray Mekonnen (ትግራይ መኮንን təgray mäkōnən) -- governor of the province of Tigray. Under the rule of Emperor Yohannes IV in the late 19th century, the Tigray Mekonnen briefly became responsible for the territories once controlled by the Bahrnegus, and became the most powerful governor of Eritrea.
Wagshum (ዋግሹም wagšum) -- governor (or shum) of the province of Wag. The Wagshum was a hereditary title, and these rulers traced their ancestry back to the imperial family of the Zagwe dynasty.
Shum Agame -- Governor of Agame province of Tigray, and hereditary in the family of Dejazmach Sabagadis Woldu, a major figure of the Zemene Mesafint (Era of the Princes) period. Ras Sebhat Aregawi, a longtime rival of the family of Emperor Yohannes IV was one of the more famous of the Shum Agame.
Shum Tembien (ሹም ታምብየን šum tambyän) -- Governor of Tembien district of Tigray. Emperor Yohannes IV was the son of Shum Mercha of Tembien.
Jantirar - Title reserved for the males of the family who ruled over the mountain fortress of Ambassel in Wollo (now Debub Wollo Zone). The title of Jantirar is among the oldest in the Ethiopian Empire. Empress Menen, consort of Emperor Haile Selassie, was the daughter of Jantirar Asfaw. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.22.61.38 (talk) 02:47, 21 December 2018 (UTC)
This conversation belongs on the article's talk page, not here. Your continous edits from various IP addresses has been nothing but disruptive. Wikipedia is not a source, so we do not base edits off of information in other articles, but from independent reliable sources. The sources used in the article back my edits. Makonnen also styles herself as H.I.H. Princess Ariana Austin Makonnen. Furthermore, the monarchy of Ethiopia was deposed and the last emperor is dead, so he is unable to "bestow" the title of princess. Is it up to the Crown Council now? If you can find a source that counters this information, then we can add it in. But for now, the sources contradict your edits. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 01:45, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
This is my first time trying to use the "talk" feature. I didn't know that there was a difference between the article's talk page and this talk page. My edits have been few and far between, but I did inform others that references to valid outside sources and inside sources are being undone and wikipedia is ascribing rank in a way that is disrespectful to others. There are many women who are BY BLOOD unable to use the title Princess because they did not come of age before the monarchy was deposed. In the absence of an emperor there are no new princesses. None of the wives of the men in the royal family have been bestowed the title of "Princess". There are instances that a woman may be referred to as "princess" as a courtesy, but this is in no way an official title. There are many people trying to dispel miunderstandings like this. The link that you cited is from a former employer who was provided the information from an outside source that likely got it from Wikipedia, which is the only place where she is referred to as H.I.H Princess Makonnen. The website that you listed as a reference will be corrected after the holidays, as the person responsible for such edits is off. We were assured that it would be corrected posthaste with the sincerest apologies for the confusion. Independent reliable sources are available that define the terms. http://www.ethiohistory.com/aristocratic-and-court-titles-in-ethiopian-history and http://enacademic.com/dic.nsf/enwiki/1222077#Women.27s_honorifics for example expressly define the term princess in the Ethiopian context as a bestowed title that is not passed automatically to people within the royal family, let alone those outside of the bloodline by marriage. Though the title has been said to be used casually by people referring to the spouse of a prince of the blood, the spouse is not actually a princess unless the title is granted to her. Is it up to the Crown Council now that the council is in exile and the monarch has been killed? No, the Crown Council will not nor has it taken on the role of bestowing monarchic titles onto people. Can you imagine the political implications if they were to do so? The sources are here and many others are available that identify what an Ethiopian princess is. Your application of the title is outside of the valid cited material here. Think of it this way. This is not the first man in the royal family to be married, yet none of the other women are titled as "HIH" nor "princess". Mrs. Makonnen is a lovely lady, but she is no greater than the other wives in the royal family. She is only different because she is the first black American to marry into the family and so the American media paid attention to her. This doesn't give her the right to titles that other women who have supported the family as wives and mothers decades before her do not have. Passing reference to someone as a "princess" as a courtesy for the sake of her husband is not the same as claiming that this is her rank/title. Please stop referring to her as having the official title of Princess until a monarchy is reinstated and it can be bestowed by the appropriate party. This is the best way to ensure accuracy and respect for those who are in the family and have more of a right to call themselves a princess, but do not out of respect for the title and know that they cannot just assume titles because the West sees it as inherently theirs for the taking. I hope that you see my point. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.223.5.124 (talk) 04:31, 23 December 2018 (UTC)

In reading the policies of Wikipedia, I think one of the underlying concepts is that the entries should contain fact and not fiction. The simple fact is that Greece has no royalty. Therefore, even having a category called Greek Royalty is fictive. The category could accurately be called former Greek Royalty and any entries there would then be factual as to the historical figures who occupied positions of royalty during the time that Greece had royalty.
I was, therefore, surprised to find entries giving titles to people such as “crown prince” or “crown princess” of Greece. This implies, by the definition of crown prince, that this person would be next to acsend to the throne. However, there is no throne to acsend to in Greece. While Pavlos was crown prince when he was born, he is no longer the crown prince because there is no longer a kingdom where he will ascend to the throne. I see the term “crown prince“ as a job description so I would be OK with his Wikipedia entry being titled former crown prince of Greece. Just as his wife is certainly not the crown princess of Greece. She was not even born into this title. She is simply married to the former crown prince of Greece. And their children could be accurately described as the sons or daughters of the former crown prince of Greece or, alternately, grandsons and granddaughters of the former king of Greece.
I would not expect Wikipedia entries to give people inaccurate titles. If someone was the CEO of IBM 30 years ago, his Wikipedia entry would certainly indicate he was a former CEO. This is no different.
To call people prince or princess also implies some sort of accreditation by the country their title is associated to. There is certainly no such accreditation forthcoming from the country of Greece. If the former crown prince wishes to use his Danish Royal lineage, where royalty still exist, that would be accurate. But the Greek titles are not. People can call themselves whatever they want but their entries in Wikipedia should reflect who they actually are. Willthacheerleader18 changed my edits to the entries stating that they did not conform to the policies of Wikipedia. I disagree. He said the titles are included as a courtesy. Encyclopedias are not designed to be courteous. They should be accurate. They should not propagate myths. And, just because “the press” uses the royal titles, as Willthacheerleader18 pointed out, is no good reason for Wikipedia to do so. Any press that covers these people is, frankly speaking, probably not representative of the highest level of journalism. He also gave examples of other people who use titles that are meaningless. I think his example is a good one but for the opposite reason of what he intended. All those fictive titles should be changed. If the people’s passports don’t say “Crown Prince of Greece” or “Christoph Prince of Schleswig Holstein” their Wikipedia entries should not either. To be a member of a defunct royal house is to be a member of nothing. The historical fact that these people’s relatives were royalty is important to note but for Wikipedia to continue to propagate titles generations after they lost their legal standing and meaning is inconsistent with the stated pillars of the organization. Since Wikipedia is the first place people tend to go these days for facts, they should get them. The use of “former” and “descendant of” are fine and accurate descriptions. This egalitarian organization should not be used as a PR tool for descendants of ousted royals to perpetuate mythical titles.
I have an educated opinion and Willthacheerleader18 does too. But I don’t agree that his is actually more valid than mine. I find it insulting to have my edits changed without a discussion. His opinion was interesting but in no way definitive.
There is a category for Greek royalty just like there is for French, German, Russian, etc. even though these kingdoms and empires are also no more. As I stated on your talk page, Pavlos was crown prince at birth. No one will succeed him in that title, he was born a crown prince while the monarchy was still in power. If someone were a CEO of IBM, the article would refer to them as a businessman who served as CEO from a specific date to another specific date. I did not change your edits, another user did. I simply thought I should explain WHY they were changed, as that user did not reach out to you. You do realize the argument you are making against me (to a third party?) is on my talk page, right? -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 17:27, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
Halo Willthacheerleader18, saya lihat artikel-artikel Anda banyak yang belum di-interwiki-kan ke Wikidata & saya sudah meng-interwiki-kan ke Wikidata seluruh artikel yang sebelumnya belum di-interwiki-kan ke Wikidata tersebut. Mohon lain kali agar Anda sendiri yang meng-interwiki-kan artikel buatan Anda ke Wikidata karena hal tersebut dapat membantu orang untuk mengetahui apakah artikel tersebut sudah dibuat di Wikipedia bahasa Indonesia atau tidak.

I think it's poor form to recreate pages that were deleted after a deletion discussion. Wikipedia:Deletion review is used when 'significant new information has come to light since a deletion that would justify recreating the deleted page'. Celia Homeford (talk) 10:46, 4 February 2019 (UTC)
Celia Homeford embarrassingly, I was unaware of deletion review so thank you for bringing it to my attention. From now on in creating articles that had previously been deleted after nomination and discussion, I will approach it this way. In fairness, it is now 2019 and Lady Amelia Windsor was deleted in 2015, Lady Marina Windsor was merged in 2017, and Chantal Hochuli was deleted in 2013. Since that time, as the articles' sources show, there has been significant coverage on all three subjects over the past few years. Regardless, you are right to inform me of deletion review. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 12:06, 5 February 2019 (UTC)

DYK for Tessa Ganserer
On 8 March 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tessa Ganserer, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Tessa Ganserer is the first openly transgender person to serve in a German parliament? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Tessa Ganserer. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Tessa Ganserer), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
Thank you for Tessa, and the many others! She is also featured on Portal:Germany. I would have loved this image to appear on the Main page today, instead of the horse: a woman smiling openly, and openly experienced. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 14:52, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

First off "singular 'they' pronouns" is not part of proper English in my view and clearly as the Wikipedia page for the 'singular they' also states that "It has been commonly employed in everyday English ever since then, though it has become the target of criticism since the late-19th century." Which seems to suggest I am not the only one, perhaps if you had decided to go to "English 101" as you so eloquently put it. Then you would've known that too. Also, I would like to add that the character in the show is not non-binary and in fact has transitioned into a male character and soooo maybe change that... Unless you think it is vandalism? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swobniarsodot (talk • contribs) 18:51, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
"in my view", exactly. Your view. It is part of proper English. It does not matter what your opinion on the matter is. More importantly, you violated Wikipedia policy. The article is about the actor themself, not the character, who has not transitioned into male but identifies as non-binary and uses singular they pronouns (not female pronouns, as you've insinuated), as the sources suggest. The information you added was not only incorrect, it was unsourced. You have already been warned by another editor for your edits, which appear to be vandalism, and you will be reported if you do so again. Wikipedia articles are not for you to express your opinion. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 18:56, 5 April 2019 (UTC)
"Watson plays the role of gender non-binary character Susie Theo Putnam" - these are your own words not mine. Which clearly says that the character NOT the actor is non-binary and he has transition from female to male... Swobniarsodot (talk) 11:59, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
My words? Those are the words in the article based off of the information in the provided sources. Click the links. If the character has transitioned, we need a source to back that claim. Wikipedia information has to be sourced. I am talking about the fact that you changed the pronouns of the actor themself, which were incorrect. You violated policy and were warned. Don't do it again. End of discussion.-- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 12:55, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Please don't cite those awful websites. They are prima facie unreliable. Note how they don't even cite sources. There are a few sources on Wuna, and this one is from a very decent press. I happen to know a thing or two about Boniface, and there is no "Christian tradition" that has her as his sister. There may be a few late medieval rumors somewhere, but if that is so, those need to be cited properly, and not as "tradition", rather as legend. Thank you. Drmies (talk) 01:45, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MurielMary was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue).

Hello, and thanks for all your contributions! I am just letting you know that I have redirected Boxley House to Madison,_North_Carolina#History, because it doesn't indicate how the house meets WP:GNG or WP:NBUILD. I found a few local news articles, but nothing that indicates the house is particularly significant. If you disagree, feel free to restore the article and let me know why you think it's notable. I am happy to discuss this further or take the article to AFD if you would appreciate more community input. Best wishes, Eddie891TalkWork00:30, 30 June 2020 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you removed a speedy deletion tag from Chantal, Princess of Hanover, a page you have created yourself. If you believe the page should not be deleted, you may contest the deletion by clicking on the button that says: Contest this speedy deletion which appears inside the speedy deletion notice. This will allow you to make your case on the talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you. PatGallacher (talk) 00:45, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

@TheHotWiki, Excuse me? I think you're confusing good faith with vandalism. Hardly a reason to threaten with a block. I didn't realize the information was not accurate.

An article you recently created, Ivy Getty, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by MurielMary was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
The comment the reviewer left was:
Insufficient evidence of independent notability (independent from her famous relatives).
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Ivy Getty and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.

Hello! Voting in the 2020 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 7 December 2020. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
Notability would come from coverage of her career, and most of this section is sourced to coverage which does not meet Wikipedia standards.
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Mccapra}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

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).
Can you please clarify why you reversed my edit of the wikipage of Alexander_Tschugguel?
Someone (I hope, not he himself?) keeps refering to him as a "Baron" and such, for which there is no source (I dare you to provide one!) and which is absolute nonsense because there is no contempory Austrian nobility. There cannot be. It has been abolished. By federal law.
Please refer to the talk page for a explanation if you need it.
I and others have pointed this out repeatetly and even referenced the federal law in which nobility was abolished and the wielding of titles made punishable in the discussion page of this article. Seeing that you refer to yourself as Swiss, I assume you understand German and that you are able to read the orginial reference. There was even a brief explanation in the article history, so I assume it was intentional. Somewhat ironical, the law in question was even referenced in the original version as to say "Here is a source that proves that the previous sentence is factually incorrect".
So why did you reverse the edit? If you are convinced of his nobility, I challenge you to provide an explanation with sources that provide a legal basis for his titles (or a reference where he calls himself "Baron")or otherwise accept the edit.
P.S.:
Please note that the acceptance of fake nobility is a political act as it questions the Austrian republic.
Clearly, this is inappropriate for the wikipedia.
Also I am not sure if you are in-partial to this issue given that you are clearly very fond of nobility articles.
Nothing wrong with that in general - this just happens to be the wrong category.
If a name is worth including in the lead, it's probably worth making a redirect from it: I've created both Philip Cottington Ludwell III and Philip Cottington Ludwell to point to the two of them. Helps the reader who has the full name, and without the redirect some future careless editor might accidentally create a duplicate. Thanks. PamD19:08, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

AH! So doing the piping in this fashion gets them in alphabetical order by first name, overriding the built-in order by last name. Brilliant!

This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work.

To my understanding, all nobility titles in Austria became illegal in 1919. She was born in 1920, so I'd conclude: none of these Freiin - Baroness things were still valid.

Hi Willthacheerleader18,
I've recently been looking for editors to invite to join the new page reviewing team. Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; the new page reviewing team needs help from experienced users.
Would you please consider becoming a New Page Reviewer? Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, most pages are easy to review, and habits are quick to develop). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us. If you choose to apply, you can drop an application over at WP:PERM/NPR. If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message on my talk page or at the reviewer's discussion board.
No *significant* coverage in reliable sources. The few non-primary sources included in the article are articles about the royal family not about van Straubenzee himself.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
The discussion will take place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Gaïa Jacquet-Matisse until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

A tag has been placed on Natalie Mars requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Natalie Mars. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay.

An article you recently created, Riley Knoxx, is not suitable as written to remain published.

Hey! I hadn't seen that other incident of cyberbullying in my quick skim of the article to see if the category is warranted, thanks for catching that for me. Also, I know the conversation is over 4 years old, however I noticed in the section "References to LDS Church name change reverted" above I noticed that you stated "but gives no teaching on what those outside the Church are supposed to do". The reasoning is while the Church provides guidance to its members, we believe that we are not authorized to provide guidance for others who are not in the Church, but we can encourage the guidance suggested to us for others. If this doesn't make sense I'm sorry I'm not good at explaining these things ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#654516:27, 27 March 2023 (UTC)
"Notable dancers" section on Kansas City Ballet wikipedia article?
Noted your addition of this section on the KCB wikipedia article and the link to the article on Ms. Mayfield. I reviewed her article. While she certainly has had an interesting career, from a Kansas City Ballet perspective I'm not sure having danced in the corps equates to "notable."
KCB actually maintains an "alumni" website (see https://kcballet.org/alumni/ ), there is one former dancer on the list with the first name "Maryhelen." Last name Hanson, perhaps her maiden name? The alumni list contains nearly 600 names! There are probably a few "notables" on the list but having just one name on the list seems inappropriate. I would propose we remove this section/link until such time as the current KCB artistic leadership has time to review and weight in on this subject. Ontomeister (talk) 22:35, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
Great! I'll contact the KCB webmaster and see if they want to link her name in the alumni list to the wikipedia article. I'll also reach out to the KCB Artistic Director Devon Carney and get his take on the concept of a notable section. Ontomeister (talk) 01:32, 30 March 2023 (UTC)

Hey
Love the work you've done on Women in Red, it's a passion of mine as well. It's clear you are a valuable contributor. We encountered each other before regarding my perhaps overzealous deletion proposals for some of your church articles.
I wanted to make sure you are aware of WP:COI and ask if you have any conflicts of interest with articles you have created or worked on that should be disclosed? You can place the {{Connected contributor|User1=Your username |U1-declared=yes| U1-otherlinks=(Optional) Insert relevant affiliations, disclosures, article drafts or diffs showing COI contributions.}} template on any affected pages.
As I see it this is a small matter and nothing that needs a big production made over it, or report to WP:COIN. It would be better for you to place the tags yourself, if it is accurate. If it is inaccurate, I apologize and again thank you for your work on WIR. —DIYeditor (talk) 19:26, 13 April 2023 (UTC)
@DIYeditor: Hello again! Thank you, Women in Red is one of my greatest passions. I actually did not know how to declare a conflict of interest. I did start an article on one of my siblings (Katherine Indermaur), and then on a few ancestors.. (I'm not sure if ancestors are conflict of interest or not? One is Thomas Lygon. I also wrote most of the article In der Maur. A lot of my personal time is spent going through family archives, and I like to use that where I can to expand articles. Are distant relations/ancestors off limits? Even in my sister's article, I do my best to come across neutral and only present the facts.) so I will go disclose that now. Do I place this tag on the article itself or on the talk page? Thank you for clarifying this for me! I'm sorry for any misstep on my part. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 23:59, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
As to how close of a connection, Any external relationship—personal, religious, political, academic, legal, or financial (including holding a cryptocurrency)—can trigger a COI. How close the relationship needs to be before it becomes a concern on Wikipedia is governed by common sense. For example, an article about a band should not be written by the band's manager, and a biography should not be an autobiography or written by the subject's spouse. There can be a COI when writing on behalf of a competitor or opponent of the page subject, just as there is when writing on behalf of the page subject. As far as I'm concerned it's no problem for you to edit articles about ancient ancestors if the COI is disclosed, but I am not an expert in this topic. You could ask at WP:COIN if you wanted.
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Willie Person Mangum, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hardscrabble.
Please see WP:BLPCRIME: "For individuals who are not public figures; that is, individuals not covered by § Public figures, editors must seriously consider not including material—in any article—that suggests the person has committed, or is accused of having committed, a crime, unless a conviction has been secured." Fram (talk) 07:49, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
And this was just a blatant, unacceptable BLP violation. Do NOT accuse people of being criminals when they are only charged or arrested, but not convicted. Fram (talk) 07:51, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
This was not an attack article. I've been writing articles on Wikipedia for over ten years and I have never once been accused of such before. I believed the subject notable, as a socialite who was arrested and charged as was cited in the article. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 07:57, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
You labeled her literally a criminal in multiple articles, without any conviction (just arrest and charges). I hope you haven't been doing that for over 10 years either. Fram (talk) 08:03, 24 April 2023 (UTC)
As I said above, I believe you are a well intentioned, constructive, and good faith editor. You probably simply have not run into these larger policy issues (BLPCRIME, COI, RSNP). Still, all three are issues that will raise the hackles of experienced editors and many will find it surprising that one didn't know of them, or feel that one should have known of them intuitively. People will become confrontational over such issues pretty quickly. —DIYeditor (talk) 19:03, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
You have recently edited a page related to gender-related disputes or controversies or people associated with them, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
refrain from gaming the system.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
You have recently made edits related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. This is a standard message to inform you that articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

We don't create category redirects like article redirects. Please look at the code on this page so should you need to make a category redirect in the future, you'll know the correct wikicode to use. Thank you. LizRead!Talk!04:07, 26 August 2023 (UTC)
Hey. I was wondering if you had additional sources for The Countess (trans woman)? Right now its citations are to two book reviews and a Twitter thread, the latter of which isn't really a reliable source and also makes assumptions about gender identity that aren't supported by the other source (and make the (trans woman) disambiguation, and the pronouns used, at odds with the reliable source.) Beyond that, I'm concerned it doesn't meet notability standards on the basis of the sourcing provided. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchstalk19:21, 28 August 2023 (UTC)
I believe so..? That's why I stated in the edit summary that a conversation should take place first between editors before such a large and well-cited section is removed. The news about incident between the school and Durham politicians was in the national news. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 11:39, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
Hi Willthacheerleader18 - I was also coming here to talk to you about the COI guidance. I actually wondered whether you were aware of the existence of the guidance - please can I ask you to confirm that you have read it, particularly the parts about the requirement that you disclose your conflicts of interest when making edits about subjects that you are personally connected to. You do not appear to have email enabled, so I can't reach out to you privately about this, but there is some discussion of your editing taking place on another website (I'm not going to post a link to it here), and what I have read there does give me concerns. If you would like more detail about that, you would be welcome to e-mail me directly (you'll need to enable email to do this). GirthSummit (blether)12:15, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
Is that the only article you have ever edited that you have a personal connection to? The off-wiki discussion would seem to suggest that there are more, but I do not see any 'connected contributor' templates on the talk pages of those articles. Also, do you not also think that, since you have disclosed a conflict of interest with regards to that particular article, you ought to be using the talk page to propose changes rather than reverting other editors on it directly? GirthSummit (blether)12:44, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
No, I have declared myself as personally connected on a few talk pages after I was made aware of COI policy here and here. This was actually discussed further up on my talk page (which is a bit of a mess, sorry) with DIYeditor (talk·contribs) (I tried to link that discussion down here but am not sure how to). Yes, I should not have used the reversion template as a discussion, and should have used the talk page initially. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 12:55, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
If those are the only people that you have written about with whom you have a personal connection, then you have satisfied that part of the guideline's recommendation. I see a number of other articles on your userpage about people with the same surname as those two, but that may be a coincidence and they are not related. Do also note, however, that the COI guidance strongly discourages you from editing such articles directly; these series of edits seems innocuous enough, but it would probably have been better to handle it through an edit request. Now, I see that your recent revert to Immaculate Conception Catholic Church (Durham, North Carolina) has been reverted - please do not reinstate it again, you can discuss the matter on the article's talk page but you should allow editors who do not have a COI to determine whether or not the content should be reinstated. Best wishes. GirthSummit (blether)13:23, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
Oh, by the way, you can link to a particular section of a talk page using the hash character. I did a Ctrl+F to find the discussion with DIYeditor, and I was going to tell you that you could like to it like this: User talk:Willthacheerleader18#Hey. Annoyingly though, that doesn't work since there's another section on this page with the same title to the browser just takes you to the first one. You could consider archiving this page - there's instructions for that at WP:ARCHIVE, but I'm afraid I am not an expert at setting it up (a very helpful person set mine up for me many years ago). GirthSummit (blether)13:44, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
In User_talk:Willthacheerleader18#Hey (this link is ambiguous, Willthacheerleader18 should set up archiving)I was trying to be moderate in admonishing you about COI. I think you do have a COI on some of these articles and should be careful about editing them. —DIYeditor (talk) 05:21, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
I've been looking into this a bit more. You've recently made this series of edits and [this one]. Do you believe that those were made in compliance with WP:COI (and potentially WP:PAID)? Look, you've been very open so far, and I'm not trying to give you a hard time here or accuse you of deliberate malfeasance - you just need to be more careful in this area. If you choose to edit in areas where you have a personal or professional connection, you need to disclose that, every time. I hope that makes sense. GirthSummit (blether)14:41, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
Yes, there are many articles with the same surname (Indermaur/In der Maur/ von Indermaur, etc.) But the closest relationship to any of them that I am aware of, besides the two which I already disclosed, is a fourth cousin twice-removed that I have never met. And I only know of that relation by our family tree records, not because I've ever had any contact with said person (Robert Indermaur). It's a large, old family and I am not personally connected to any besides the two previously mentioned. I am a part of WikiProject Switzerland so I was excited to write and expand coverage on Swiss people. I understand, and I will not make edits like those linked above again. Am I still allowed to make edits to other Indermaur articles that I have no personal connection to? I understand regarding ICCC as well. Thank you for the additional information on linking the discussion and archiving, I believe it is time for me to archive my talk page as I don't think I ever have before. I will look into that. Addressing your next point, no worries I understand that you are doing your job and want to be as diligent as possible. No, I do not believe that the edits I made to the Suicide of Tyler Clementi and Brian Sims are WP:COI and they absolutely were not WP:PAID— I have never recieved compensation for my writing and editing on Wikipedia nor would I ever accept it. My only connection there is that I began working for the foundation named after Tyler Clementi last Monday as an administrative assistant. I got an email that was sent out to all members of the foundation, that Brian Sims (a celebrity and LGBTQ+ advocate that, as a transgender woman, I have been following for quite some time) had joined the foundation's board of directors. It was also added to the foundation's website. Upon seeing that I, excitedly, added it to Wikipedia seeing as the article already listed other celebrities who had been affiliated with the foundation. I would not have thought that to be a WP:COI otherwise I would have disclosed it. Is that a violation of WP:COI? I have never met Sims nor was I instructed to do anything on Wikipedia. -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 15:40, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
Well speaking for myself, if a famous person were to be appointed as a governor at the school where I work, I would consider myself to be too closely connected with the subject to either record the fact at the article about my school, or to edit the article about the famous person; I'd leave that for someone else to do. Use your best judgment, but if in doubt, leave it to someone else or at least declare the connection when making the edit.
The stuff about distant family members is probably fine - if you don't know them personally, don't worry about it. Your openness about the ones you are connected to does you credit, and it goes a long way to convince me that there is no attempt on your part to do anything improperly. Best GirthSummit (blether)15:48, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
That makes sense, I think that's a good rule of thumb for me to use moving forward in my editing. I apologize for any inconvenience that I've caused, and I will re-read through the WP:COI if I'm in doubt and see if it's something I can ask another editor to do instead. I wouldn't need to declare my connection when editing a page on, for example, my alma mater or the city I grew up in though, right? I feel like those are far enough removed institutions for it not to be considered a conflict of interest? -- Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 00:15, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
Hi. I've been watching this conversation, so hope you don't mind if I jump in here with some examples which might help answer your question. I mostly write about the history of the Bronx, which is where I live. I don't feel the need to declare a COI for most topics that I edit. I did, however, for Harlem Yacht Club, because I'm a member of the club. RoySmith(talk)01:59, 30 August 2023 (UTC)
I agree with Roy on this. Writing about the city where you live - sure, no problem at all, loads of people do stuff like that. Writing about your alma mater? Not a problem in the general sense, but it would start to get a bit nearer the knuckle if you were to write about the department where you studied, and I would certainly suggest staying away from people like professors who taught you, or people you were in classes with you who went on to become famous/notable.

Disambiguation link notification for August 29
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Julia Livingston Delafield, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fieldston.
Many of the good cites are behind NYT's paywall. It would nice to find some more accessible references.

Hello! Voting in the 2023 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 11 December 2023. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.
The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
I have added a citation needed tag and fixed some of the bare URLs. Please see WP:BAREREF.

Hi Willthacheerleader18, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.
Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.
I am afraid that I have removed the "autopatrolled user" right because you have created dozens of new pages that have been deleted, so keeping them from being easily reviewed doesn't seem wise. -- 23:33, 22 January 2024 (UTC) BCorr|Брайен23:33, 22 January 2024 (UTC)

I imagine that a story of a bodybuilding college cheerleader got some attention from blogs in 2012 but there has been no sustained coverage of this article subject. Looks like momentary notability.
