Wikipedia Help Survey

[edit]

Hi there, my name's Peter Coombe and I'm a Wikimedia Community Fellow working on a project to improve Wikipedia's help system. At the moment I'm trying to learn more about how people use and find the current help pages. If you could help by filling out this brief survey about your experiences, I'd be very grateful. It should take less than 10 minutes, and your responses will not be tied to your username in any way.

Thank you for your time,

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Wrestler Trinity McCray (Naomi).jpg)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Wrestler Trinity McCray (Naomi).jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:34, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2017–18 San Jose Sharks season, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Martin Jones (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

WNBA Standings

[edit]

Hi GameWiz14! Thanks for updating the WNBA standings templates. Its nice to have someone on top of them so they get updated in a timely manner.  :) One thing to watch out for is the abbreviation that goes with the team is above the team in the wiki code. For example, the LVA for the Aces is next to the |- before their rank as 1st in the conference. Just be careful when you're moving teams around in the standings. Thanks!

Sharks & Golden Knights stats

[edit]

Hi there. There are a few minor things that I have noticed with your edits in regards to the Sharks and Golden Knights stats. First, players that are tied with the same amount of points but have more goals than the player they are tied in points with, are ranked above the players with less goals. In your last update on the Vegas page, you had Nicolas Hague ranked above Tomas Nosek, both have 11 points, but Nosek has 6 goals and 5 assists, while Hague only has 1 goal and 10 assists. I've seen this in a few of your edits on the Sharks and Vegas pages, which has led me to having to fix it several times. In addition, you need to update the |accessdate= parameter in the citation templates because it verifies that the reference URL's are still working properly. If you have questions, you can WP:PING me in your response. Yowashi (talk) 22:54, 18 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yowashi: Thanks for the advice. I wasn't too certain if I should put up a player above another based on goals in case they're tied with other in terms of points. Also, if two players happen to be tied in both goals, assists and points, should I place them based on Plus-Minus ratio at that point? GameWhiz14 (talk) 10:30, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
When I update stats, I use these references from NHL.com. Sharks skaters, Sharks goalies, VGK skaters, VGK goalies. The references have the players sorted by goals, assists, and then points. I don't know if you use these to obtain your info from or not, but these are the most reliable sources because it is straight from the NHL. These references are also included in the stats tables on both pages, but they look like this [1]. The Sharks page has this reference in the stats table. I don't use that one because there are times where the save % and GAA for the goalies don't match with the other references. That's because, the ref that I last mentioned only shows the goalies' TOI to the nearest minute, instead of the exact TOI for a goalie. Using the rounded off number will mess up the calculations for the GAA and save %. Avoid using that reference, but you can use the ones that I mentioned earlier. Yowashi (talk) 18:48, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Yowashi: Yeah, I use NHL.com for references, along with Hockey Reference for the Sharks [2] and the Knights [3]. I use the NHL site more now since Hockey Reference misses some Goalie Stats on Games Played and Games Started, along with a the TOI being more accumulated than just being rounded up to the nearest minute.
