St Patrick's Cathedral (Dublin)

parentheses is not the disambiguator for geography. Comma is the disambiguator. Laurel Lodged (talk) 07:34, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Laurel Lodged: that's not really true. Per WP:QUALIFIER, point 2, "With place names, if the disambiguating term is a higher-level administrative division, it is often separated using a comma instead of parentheses". That doesn't apply here though, as the Cathedral is clearly not a place name. Therefore it should use parentheses, as does St. Patrick's Cathedral (Manhattan) for example. It seems like there are a large number of wrongly named buildings in Ireland and the UK already though, so I guess you're right that this one has to go back to its incorrect name for consistency. — Amakuru (talk) 07:53, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Amakuru: I don't agree with that interpretation. See the disambiguation page St. Patrick's Cathedral where all instances use the comma. Manhattan ought to conform. Laurel Lodged (talk) 08:02, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Laurel Lodged: well I've linked the policy above where the rule is defined. I don't see how a cathedral could be defined as a "place name", and place names are the only kind of entity where the policy says we should use a comma. As I said above though, editors in the Commonwealth countries (and Ireland) have been doing this wrong for years, so it's probably a job too far to correct it at this point and this is all a moot point. All buildings and structures in the US use parentheses though, as you can see at St._Patrick's_Cathedral#United_States or Category:Statues in New York (state), so certainly the Manhattan one should stay as it is.

@Amakuru: The disambiguating term is the geographic location, not the object itself. So "Dublin" is the disambiguator. Since Dublin is a "higher-level administrative division", then it needs a comma. Laurel Lodged (talk) 11:05, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Laurel Lodged: for the third time, that criterion only applies to place names. Since this is not a place name, it moves on to criterion 3, which is to use the Wikipedia-standard parentheses. This isn't rocket science. — Amakuru (talk) 11:07, 6 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As someone who had to clean up a page title mess regarding St. Patrick's (Manhattan) mess recently, I should chime in. It does conform with disambiguation policy for US structures, for which literally all buildings and structures use parentheses, except for a few scattered violations. Actual populated places like Turtle Bay, Manhattan do use commas, but buildings do not, at least not in the US.

In the UK, Ireland, and elsewhere, I understand buildings and structures use comma disambiguators, and that is fine. In the US, the convention is parentheses. Since St. Patrick's (Manhattan) is in the US is not a neighborhood, city, town, etc, it does not use a comma. Epicgenius (talk) 02:31, 8 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

South Africans in the Netherlands moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, South Africans in the Netherlands, is not suitable 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.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the blocking policy).

Chelston-temp-1 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I screwed up, by being well-intentioned with page moves; I tried too hard to be helpful. I would prefer to make a clean start if I could. I'm not a POV-pusher, spammer etc. or someone writing misinformation, I want to be helpful. I did wrong, yes, and I admit it. I did make good edits 2018-2019 but cocked up.

Decline reason:

Confirmed sock puppetry via User:Kathanis92595 and User:Sobienir56. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 14:38, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

I'm having a hard time finding any useful edits that you've made; digging back before the pages and pages of pointless moves, I see a long pattern of unsourced edits, and in a few of the cases where you did use a source, that source was pretty shaky in terms of WP:RS. Even if you agreed to stop moving pages as an unblock condition (which would clearly be necessary), I'm not sure if doing so would be net benefit to the project.
