Good call

with this merge. I had thought about doing that long ago. P. D. Cook Talk to me! 20:32, 25 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I'm working on clearing out old merges, so that's how I came across it. Sadly there wasn't that much I could salvage from the page. --DarkCrowCaw 00:09, 26 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Doryanthes and Doryanthaceae

[edit]

Hi, you were absolutely right to merge these two articles, which has been waiting to be done since 2010 it seems. However, the policy of WikiProject Plants is to use the genus as the main article when there is a single genus in a family. See point (3) at WP:PLANTS#Plant article naming conventions and, as just one example, Daphniphyllum. So I undid your merger, but would encourage you to do it the other way round, i.e. merge the content of Doryanthaceae into Doryanthes. Peter coxhead (talk) 23:46, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh! Thanks. I should've checked there first before doing the merge. I'll be sure to reverse next time. --DarkCrowCaw 00:13, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merge of content from I'm not lovin' it

[edit]

Can you point me to any discussion of your merge of content from I'm not lovin' it to the article Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine, as I can't find any. I think that the content justifiably stands on its own, and while I can envision a case for a merge I don't see that it has been made, discussed and that consensus was to merge the content. Alansohn (talk) 19:32, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There wasn't any discussion; there was a two-year old merge tag on the "I'm not lovin' it" article, with no objection at either Talk:I'm not lovin' it nor at Talk:Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine. Based on that and reviewing the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine content which was the same as half of the I'm not lovin' it article, I merely merged the few paragraphs that were not present. I maintain no personal connection to the subject matter and was just acting to clean up the merge backlog so if you feel it's better suited on its own, I will not object to a revert of my edits, as long as the old (2010) merge tag is not returned. --DarkCrowCaw 19:46, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Merger of simming and Play-by-post_role-playing_game

[edit]

Hey, I'm about ready to do the merger of these two articles. I was hoping you could look it over or let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. A lot of the content of simming is original research and impossible to verify, or doesn't have value so I'm not including it in the merger. --Frugen (talk) 15:26, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sure! I can give it a look over. I came to the same conclusion with regards to the Simming article, so I would not be surprised if you're able to cut it down by a fair bit. --DarkCrowCaw 15:38, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, merger is done. I hope it's much better than before! Please let me know how it looks. --Frugen (talk) 17:24, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good to me. The only thing I see missing (although, also not sourced) is that the Simming article mentions software associated with Simming; Nova by Anodyne Productions. I guess if there is some sort of source/more info on this, a section on Play-by-post software would be be beneficial, so its not mandatory for the merge at the moment. Outside that, looks alright. Thanks for your help! --DarkCrowCaw 18:12, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for looking it over. I looked into anodyne as the article was the first I'd heard of it, but their website offers extremely little information and I couldn't find anything on it anywhere else. I don't get the impression it's better known than standard forum software packages like php or vbulletin. Most simmers use those common public products and modify them to their needs. There are some lists of forum software but I think just mentioning it broadly is enough. My next step is to read a book to find some actual sources for the content.--Frugen (talk) 18:23, 13 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Datte Anata Wa Anata Da Kara

[edit]

The article Datte Anata Wa Anata Da Kara has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No references, no claim of notability, fails WP:NSONG and WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

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.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Redirect

[edit]

What is the problem with a short article "The Red House Report" giving a link to the article Adam LeBor ? The French Wikipedia has two distinct articles, thus it would be good if the article "The Red House Report" in the French Wikipedia had a link to an article in the English Wikipedia. What's the downside? Marvoir (talk) 11:13, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't been active on Wikipedia in seven years with no plans to return. With respect to whichever article you have linked please proceed with whatever action you believe is the best. Whatever I did seven+ years ago may no longer be relevant. Most of my edits were trying to clean up old tagged articles anyway. In short, I have no opinion on this, proceed with what works best for the French and English wikis. Thanks. DarkCrowCaw 12:47, 13 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I had misunderstppd the page The Red House Report: Revision history. Marvoir (talk) 13:05, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
