Still Active, Just Might Have a Few Days In Bed

[edit]

Why did you semi-protect Austria-Hungary?

[edit]

There are no recent confirmed sockpuppets at this article. This is just a lame pretext, Fakirbakir wants the article semiprotected to be able to impose his version without resistance from anonymous editors. 176.61.232.104 (talk) 12:54, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You'll note that I didn't say there was sockpuppetry going on. I see no immediate evidence of it, and besides, it's not my area of expertise. What I do see is an ongoing tug-of-war between IP editors and new accounts against other users with confirmed accounts. There doesn't appear to be any productive dialogue about the content on the article's talk page (though there is a complete abandonment of good faith by...everyone). For the next two weeks, the article will be restricted to only being edited by autoconfirmed users, but all IP editors and new editors can request an edit be made to the page in line with consensus. If there is sockpuppetry going on, I hope somebody takes the time to report it and handle the situation. As it stands, editors need to come to an agreement over the content and stop edit warring (I don't care who started it). PanydThe muffin is not subtle 13:01, 19 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Prep 2

[edit]

Hi, I put an "in use" template on this prep set as I am almost finished building it. Could you move Logan Beirne to Prep 3? Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 23:09, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clearing the prep areas

[edit]

Hi. If you clear a DYK prep area (or queue), please make sure you use Template:Did you know/Clear to do so. You have reverted key changes to the DYK prep areas, that would evenlually leak through to the main page. If you copied it from somewhere else, please copy the contents of /Clear to that location as well, so the old code is eliminated. Thank you. -- [[User:Edokter]] {{talk}} 10:01, 22 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:Joel Nkaya Bendera.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Stefan2 (talk) 22:37, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Stefan2 I thought I'd put the thing under fair use with a rationale... PanydThe muffin is not subtle 22:40, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
There is currently no copyright tag, which is different from a fair use rationale. The file information page contains some of the things required in a fair use rationale, but not everything. --Stefan2 (talk) 22:52, 25 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

East London meetups

[edit]

Hi,I am sitting in an almost empty Waitrose Café, Canary Wharf, on a Wednesday evening. I wandered around looking for a suitable place for a meet up: Unfortunately the Starbucks outside the library shuts at 7:00 pm. I think this place would be fine - almost empty, reasonable price with free coffee if you buy something (i.e. a cake?). After all the talk on WMUK list I thought it would be better to do something. What I would suggest is perhaps an East London meetup on the last Wednesday of the month, starting wed 24 June. What do you think? Leutha (talk) 19:43, 3 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Your comments at WP:ARC

[edit]

I saw your comments here. It is astonishing to me that ArbCom is going to pass a motion to sweep this whole damn thing under the rug. Through their inaction, they are giving their official blessing to grossly insulting behavior on this project. There isn't a person alive who doesn't have a temper tantrum once in a while. But this guy went far, far beyond that. He maintained a disgusting level of hatred for at least a week and a half. I've long maintained that our WP:CIVIL policy is void. I think it's a given at this point, and ArbCom has just proved that. Further, I think ArbCom at this point has proven they are incapable of dealing with problems like this. They have just justified the opinions of all those who say admins are a special class of editor. They have ensconced depraved indifference for the civility policy in stone. I am, to say the least, disgusted. --Hammersoft (talk) 15:06, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's less administrators and more 'my friends' but yeah :( PanydThe muffin is not subtle 15:17, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've just seen this discussion, but I do share the disappointment in the way most of my colleagues (and many (most?) of those commenting) are treating the civility policy as entirely optional for someone who is provoked. If you (or anyone else reading this) have ideas how to improve things in this regard please share them. Asking strong questions at the next arb election would not be inappropriate as one example. Thryduulf (talk) 10:28, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
If I block someone for incivility, their friends will come along with the following (from my experience) -
  • 'It's not offensive in my country, so why are you getting upset about it?
  • He/She has never called anyone 'X' before! Therefor we should let them off the hook.
  • Grow a thicker skin
  • There isn't any real harassment on this site, it's all in your head
And my absolute favourite excuse:
  • 'WE ARE HERE TO BUILD AN ENCYCLOPEDIA! NOT BE CIVIL!'
To which my equally capslocked response is:
  • 'IF YOU DON'T STOP CALLING OTHER PEOPLE IDIOTS AND 'CUNTS' THEN WHO WILL BUILD THE ENCYCLOPEDIA? YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS AND NOBODY ELSE. YOU CANNOT DO THIS ON YOUR OWN.'
So. ArbCom. Give administrators a precedent to set their blocks for incivility by, and we'll block the heck out of anyone who pulls this. But without precedent I can choose to do nothing or turn my hobby into a circus of abuse. I know which one I'm picking - and I hate it. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 10:41, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I can and will try, but I can't do alone and was outvoted on this occasion. Thryduulf (talk) 10:56, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, you did. Thank you. We all appreciate your efforts, we really do. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 11:09, 21 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A donated policy that paid out centuries ago has no cash value

[edit]

With reference to the last edit on the Manhattan Life Insurance Company page, your reasoning for the undo being Unless they donated a policy covering coolies to the museum, they donated the profit from the venture is not accurate. The company donated the paperwork (i.e. policy documents) to the museum for historical record. No profit or cash valued contract was ever transferred making that statement and entire paragraph irrelevant. Based on the referenced articles and historical facts, The Manhattan Life Insurance Company was not sued for and was not asked to pay reparations ever that your statement insinuates. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.124.222.18 (talk) 20:22, 17 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Removed then! PanydThe muffin is not subtle 16:34, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Seriously though, I remember creating this article as a favour to someone (I can't remember why, I think it was being deleted and someone was upset? Pretty sure the company had submitted a bad draft) - it wasn't 100% positive and now you've not only threatened to sue me but we've been at this forever. Thank you for being slightly more cordial at this point but jeez louise. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 16:38, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

" I'm sure everyone can come to an agreement"

[edit]

About Homo naledi, I think something should be mentioned about Nature not publishing. Right now I am not opposed to leaving out the word twelve. But I think the fanclub of a notable paleontoligist, or expedition members on wikipedia, or facebook support group of the fanclub or expedition members - might be unwilling to make any concessions. --Here to sway (talk) 14:40, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Here to sway: - I'm going to stay uninvolved with regards to the content and discussion thereof - but if you have concerns about canvassing on or off wiki let me have a look at it and I'll put up a template. If the edit war starts up again after the protection has been lifted, I'll be happy to protect it again to keep the article stable and come to a consensus. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 15:19, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Update: So far it seems that the discussion is at an impasse: I have suggested one word that can be left unused, and I have asked if there is any sentence that can be worded that has three elements. The discussion might be characterised as a number of people mouthing off, relatively politely - and some might say that I am no worse or better than the others in the discussion. Here to sway (talk) 19:22, 24 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for stepping in regarding the edit war yesterday. I hope you or (an)other sysop(s) can continue to monitor the situation. An RfC was started at my suggestion, but it may take additional management to let this proceed in an orderly fashion. Samsara 11:05, 25 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Possibility for a settlement - even without anyone having changed their opinions

[edit]

Hi Panyd, even though The muffin is not subtle, will you or someone consider asking the other parties in the RfC if a no-fault freeze of the RfC is acceptable? I suggest, that I will not contest - without improved references (which I have yet to see) - that there is significant opposition against saying in the article that some (or twelve) articles were rejected by Nature (or rejected by a journal).
In part I now see that there has been edit warring going on in other places of the article; perhaps I would like to see that some of those situations finds some sort of equilibrium first. Another point is that I am convinced that there will be a research article in Nature about the find, within 365 days from now. Even if things might turn out so that Berger and/or expedition members are not the first ones to have research articles about the find accepted by Nature, I suspect that the team's openness about their excavations will be instrumental for others to get research article(s) about the find accepted by Nature. I speculate that the find will turn out to be, at least in part, at least one existing species.
I think there is a good chance that the rejection issue might become less significant within months. "Good" peer reviews and/or "bad" peer reviews might contribute to that. Thank you. --Here to sway (talk) 01:21, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Here to sway: - You're going to have to let the RfC play out - it's the best way to resolve the issue one way or another. A 'no-fault' freeze would simply prolong the disagreement and isn't something that we do. As for 'edit warring', nobody who isn't an administrator can edit the page - and the only involved administrator, @Samsara:, is not editing it and acting completely appropriately. It will end in due time, and that should be the end of it. Other admins have tweaked it slightly, but otherwise nobody has or will touch the content without consensus. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 13:54, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Well, at least I suggested a no-fault freeze - at least until new significant info and references about the rejection shows up, and that might quite possibly be never. (I am not suggesting that the rejection is not notable.) Continuing with the RfC might be the least demanding alternative. However, one might say that "No intellectual pain, no intellectual gain"? Thanks for having replied. Here to sway (talk) 15:34, 26 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Help decide the future of Wikimania

[edit]

The Wikimedia Foundation is currently running a consultation on the value and planning process of Wikimania, and is open until 18 January 2016. The goals are to (1) build a shared understanding of the value of Wikimania to help guide conference planning and evaluation, and (2) gather broad community input on what new form(s) Wikimania could take (starting in 2018).

After reviewing the consultation, we'd like to hear your feedback on on this survey.

In addition, feel free to share any personal experiences you have had at at a Wikimedia movement conference, including Wikimania. We plan to compile and share back outcomes from this consultation in February.

With thanks,

Vandalism?

[edit]

Hi! I don't know if I'm on the right talk page but since you're the one who put a protection on Lip Sync Battle Philippines, I'll seek your help. Someone with the username User:Oripaypaykim keeps on deleting episodes on some of the pages. S/he deleted the list of episodes from the Lip Sync Battle Philippines page saying that the reason is that it is a Wikipedia:Listcruft which I find entirely not related to the page because Lip Sync Battle also have their own list of episodes.

Another one is that s/he deleted the notable episodes listed on Magpakailanman without any reason. I don't know if that removal he did is considered vandalism but I hope he stops deleting an entire list made by other editors. I just restored both in their previous versions but I'm a bit worried that I may be reverting too much. MBdemigod (talk) 07:16, 21 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just I said before it will entire article WP:LISTCRUFT "In general, a "list of X" stand-alone list article should only be created if X itself is a legitimate encyclopedic topic that already has its own article. The list should originate as a section within that article, and should not be broken out into a separate article until it becomes so long as to be disproportionate to the rest of the article. It is very appropriate for the article on Zoology to include a list of important zoologists within it, and for the article on the fictional series character Rick Brant to include a list of the Rick Brant books." that the list of episodes are been the information I just moving on the article to seperate the list of episodes. I do not vandalism that include the List of Lip Sync Battle Philippines episodes are sequel, for the example List of Lip Sync Battle episodes. Oripaypaykim (talk) 07:20, 21 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Maiduguri mosque aftermath.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Maiduguri mosque aftermath.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Would enwiki benefit from having me as an admin?

[edit]

Hi Panyd,

After our discussion this week, I'd like your opinion on whether I'd be able to serve the project well if I were to spend a few hours a week admin-gnoming, and whether you think I'd be able to pass an RfA, based on my conduct and contributions.

Thanks --Slashme (talk) 21:30, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

t/p/s. Hi Slashme. Take a look at this. Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Optional RfA candidate poll‎. Put your name up. You will get excellent feedback on your chances. From a quick look, you would be a strong candidate. Cheers! Simon. Irondome (talk) 21:43, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, that's exactly where I should go. --Slashme (talk) 08:57, 30 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Slashme I concur! I think you'd be excellent and as I said, anyone willing to spend even 3 hours clearing up admin-background bits a week should be welcomed. I know most admins can't make it a full-time second job and it really does help content editors. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 11:16, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you both! As it happens, the feedback that I got there was that my performance at AfD isn't really strong enough, both in terms of stats and quality of comments, that my content creation track record isn't that great, and that my level of activity is not really high enough, so if I'm serious about becoming an admin, I should probably take a year where I demonstrate better skills. --Slashme (talk) 11:27, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I've been watching that. I highly disagree with the content argument, but the CSD point was a good one. You don't get the mop to write content. You get the mop to clean up spills. I find this weird fetishisation of content creation when there are numerous tasks on this site that don't involve it but are just as important infuriating. So yes to diving more into CSD, but no to the content argument. (Or that's my opinion looking at the feedback anyway) PanydThe muffin is not subtle 11:37, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

File permission problem with File:Dill cropped.jpg

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Dill cropped.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

  • make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
  • Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Kelly hi! 07:49, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Kelly: - thank you very much for the notice. It is my understanding that the file in question is no longer eligible for copyright. Given that the warning says I have used the copyright license, could you please let me know where an error has occurred? Thank you. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 08:02, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
To determine the copyright status, we would need some information on who the photographer was and when/where the photo was originally published. Kelly hi! 08:04, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
As you'll see in the linked article, the gentleman died in 1937. Surely this doesn't apply? PanydThe muffin is not subtle 08:06, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Kelly: PanydThe muffin is not subtle 08:09, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
If published after 1923, it could still be under copyright. We need to cite the source of the photo to make that determination. Kelly hi! 08:15, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Kelly: Aha! Thank you. Although I'll be damned if whoever took that picture is alive to write to OTRS. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 10:54, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
We wouldn't need anything like that if we could tell if either 1) it was published without a copyright notice or 2) the copyright was not renewed. Kelly hi! 11:07, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
