Pesky banners

So the problem is, there aren't any banners currently showing for me so I can't figure out what exactly needs to be written. I'll write to you the next time I see one, alternatively you can try to use "Right click > Inspect element" to see if the banner has anything similar to id="i_am_an_annoying_banner", then you could write #i_am_an_annoying_banner { display:none; } in your CSS file. – Thjarkur (talk) 23:15, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Þjarkur Can you take a look at my CSS file to see I did this right? Interstellarity (talk) 23:16, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
Yes it is correct, but it will only work if the banners still have the same CSS identifiers as they did 10 years ago ;) – Thjarkur (talk) 23:18, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
Þjarkur, Thank you. Interstellarity (talk) 23:19, 1 December 2019 (UTC)

Australian criminals

Why did you pull my edit to Australian bank robbers it's common knowledge about Raymond Patrick "Chuck"Bennett was one the greatest armed robbers in Australian history there is plenty of sources to check about him TV shows books movies newspapers etc he was the Mastermind of the great bookie robbery at the Victoria club in Melbourne,also why ain't Russell "mad dog" Cox on the list because apart from being one of the best and most prolific armed robbers in Australian history he also broke out of the maximum security (inescapable) katingell prison and was on the run for 11years and still commiting robberies and even signing on the file while on the run..so how do I get to add information to pages please because I'm not someone who just writes anything without checking that my information is 100% accurate Warrenscaff2 (talk) 16:59, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello Warrenscaff2, all information on Wikipedia must cited by an independent, reliable sources that talks about the subject in detail. If you can tell me what source you got it from, I will consider reinstating your edit. Interstellarity (talk) 17:25, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Problematic editing

Why the US-centrism? Countries are only allowed to be described relative to US states?! Any why is Guyana "on the coast" of South America? Guyana extends 500 miles inland - that's as far from the coast as Nashville.

This isn't OK - facts and reality matter on Wikipedia. Guettarda (talk) 16:17, 3 December 2019 (UTC)

Guettarda, I thought I was giving a better description of the countries. I try not to introduce something that is not true on Wikipedia or unsourced. The reason why I said Guyana was on the coast is because Guyana is not landlocked. Interstellarity (talk) 16:23, 3 December 2019 (UTC)
I for one think these edits were an improvement over the previous vague descriptions. – Thjarkur (talk) 22:22, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

Poetic Text

Just to let you know, author being blocked is not a valid reason for speedy deletion unless the page was created in violation of a ban or block (WP:G5). Pages created before the ban or block came into force are not subject to this criterion. However, I deleted Draft:Poetic Text anyway because it seems to be a copyvio. SpinningSpark 21:35, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

@Spinningspark: The author did get blocked from editing. The author did not appear to be here so I thought speedy deletion would apply. Thank you for the message and I will try to be more careful. Interstellarity (talk) 22:42, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Pending changes to Pacilia (gens)

Hello there! I'm just leaving this note to explain why I reverted the edits that you approved by User:195.110.134.162 to Pacilia (gens). The same editor has been making these edits since September 17, under this address as well as User:2.44.156.165, claiming without evidence that the Pacilii were an "important noble family". The edits are unsourced and contrary to everything that is known about the family: none of its members is mentioned by any Roman writer except for Cicero, who mentions two of them nine years apart, the second of them in passing. All the rest are known only from inscriptions, none of which suggest lasting importance. The family was "obscure", like countless other Roman families, because it is not mentioned in any other source, and because none of its members played any significant role in Roman history; it is plebeian because (as the word was used in the later Republic, and by modern historians) all Romans who were did not belong to the few dozen patrician families were by definition plebeian. Owning a house, even on the Palatine Hill, did not make one a patrician or noble in any way; Quintus Cicero, who wished to buy the house, was a plebeian, and chiefly known to us because his brother was a famous orator; in fact the IP editor names eleven famous persons—among countless thousands—who lived on the Palatine Hill at various points in time: seven of these examples were plebeians.

The anonymous IP editor appears to have no familiarity with Wikipedia policies or procedures; has never created an account, nor responded to edits left on his or her talk pages, nor used the talk page for "Pacilia (gens)". Instead, the editor placed a lengthy argument in the main body of the article, insisting that the edits were "incontrovertible" and demanding that they be left alone. I copied and pasted the argument on the talk page, where I responded to it point-by-point; but the editor never replied. From the fact that the editor's native language does not appear to be English, and the fact that the editor refers to most of the Romans in his argument by Italian names, he or she seems to be Italian, and although one can only speculate about his or her motivations, it seems likely that he or she is trying to make an ancient Roman family sound more important for personal reasons. The editor has previously been blocked from editing this page, and the article has pending edit protection in order to prevent this particular editor from making these edits. I'm sorry if this explanation appears to be excessive; I and another editor have been dealing with the same unresponsive editor for three months, and it seems unlikely that the editor in question can be persuaded to stop, or prevented from reintroducing the same edits again and again. At any rate, that's why I reverted the edits. Best wishes, P Aculeius (talk) 14:39, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

@P Aculeius: It was a long explanation, but it was understandable. I understand that having my edits reverted is a normal part of the editing process on Wikipedia. As long as you give an explanation to why you reverted my edits, it helps me become a better editor so I can be more careful in the future. Interstellarity (talk) 17:33, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter December 2019

A graph showing the number of articles in the page curation feed from 12/21/18 - 12/20/19

Reviewer of the Year

This year's Reviewer of the Year is Rosguill. Having gotten the reviewer PERM in August 2018, they have been a regular reviewer of articles and redirects, been an active participant in the NPP community, and has been the driving force for the emerging NPP Source Guide that will help reviewers better evaluate sourcing and notability in many countries for which it has historically been difficult.

Special commendation again goes to Onel5969 who ends the year as one of our most prolific reviewers for the second consecutive year. Thanks also to Boleyn and JTtheOG who have been in the top 5 for the last two years as well.

Several newer editors have done a lot of work with CAPTAIN MEDUSA and DannyS712 (who has also written bots which have patrolled thousands of redirects) being new reviewers since this time last year.

Thanks to them and to everyone reading this who has participated in New Page Patrol this year.

Redirect autopatrol

A recent Request for Comment on creating a new redirect autopatrol pseduo-permission was closed early. New Page Reviewers are now able to nominate editors who have an established track record creating uncontroversial redirects. At the individual discretion of any administrator or after 24 hours and a consensus of at least 3 New Page Reviewers an editor may be added to a list of users whose redirects will be patrolled automatically by DannyS712 bot III.

Source Guide Discussion

Set to launch early in the new year is our first New Page Patrol Source Guide discussion. These discussions are designed to solicit input on sources in places and topic areas that might otherwise be harder for reviewers to evaluate. The hope is that this will allow us to improve the accuracy of our patrols for articles using these sources (and/or give us places to perform a WP:BEFORE prior to nominating for deletion). Please watch the New Page Patrol talk page for more information.

This month's refresher course

While New Page Reviewers are an experienced set of editors, we all benefit from an occasional review. This month consider refreshing yourself on Wikipedia:Notability (geographic features). Also consider how we can take the time for quality in this area. For instance, sources to verify human settlements, which are presumed notable, can often be found in seconds. This lets us avoid the (ugly) 'Needs more refs' tag.

Massachusetts

See MOS:COMPASS. General Ization Talk 17:15, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

@General Ization: Please see the article Northeastern United States. The first sentence capitalizes Northeastern United States. If you want to change the first sentence in that article to lowercase, I'll be happy to do that. Please let me know your thoughts on this. Interstellarity (talk) 17:21, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
And "Eastern central United States"? There is no such region. General Ization Talk 17:25, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
@General Ization: I wanted to be precise on where the states were on the map. That's why I chose that particular short description. Interstellarity (talk) 17:27, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
The article Northeastern United States is a discussion of the characteristics of the region, made up of US states that share certain common characteristics (including but not limited to their location in the northeastern United States). The phrase "northeastern United States" in the short description of Massachusetts is used a) to identify that it is located in the United States and b) more specifically in the northeastern part of that geographic entity. It is not, in this case, referring to its being a member of the group of states in that region. Please follow the MOS recommendation. General Ization Talk 17:41, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
@General Ization: That's clear to me. I try to follow editing standards here. Thank you for educating me. Interstellarity (talk) 17:44, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
@General Ization: I also fixed the other state's descriptions as well. Interstellarity (talk) 18:02, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
Thanks. I realize the difference is semantic and open to interpretation, but the current format follows the general principle contained in our MOS and most other stylebooks. General Ization Talk 19:00, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

Short descriptions in place articles

Hi Interstellarity,

I'm not sure whether you were aware, but the infoboxes in a lot of place articles already add a short description. Adding another one strikes me as confusing the issue. Look for the "short_description" field in the infobox rather than adding a {{short description}} template.

If you configure your preferences to show the short description, as described here, the effect will be easier to judge.

Thanks, Trovatore (talk) 21:34, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

Hi Trovatore. I use the Shortdesc helper gadget in my preferences to fix the short descriptions. I wasn't aware of the setting you described until you told me about it. I just have a question. What is the difference between Shortdesc helper and "Show page description beneath the page title (not compatible with Page assessments gadget)"? Interstellarity (talk) 21:39, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
I don't know. I haven't used "shortdesc helper".
I wanted to add that I think if you don't specify a short_description field, the place infoboxes generate one automatically from some combination of the other fields. If you want to override that, you should set the short_description field rather than using the template. --Trovatore (talk) 21:46, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
@Trovatore: Do you recommend that I remove the short description template and let the infobox generate a short description? Interstellarity (talk) 21:49, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
Yes. If the autogenerated one is suboptimal for some reason, I recommend overriding it in the infobox short_description field. --Trovatore (talk) 21:52, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
@Trovatore: I also found that if I removed the short description to New York City (which I didn't), the short description would just be City which is not a very specific short description. I feel that the shortdesc helper allows you to be specific with the short descriptions rather than letting the infobox determine the short description. Interstellarity (talk) 21:57, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
Well, I still think it's better to override using the short_description field rather than using the {{short description}} template. The problem with using the template is that the article then has two short descriptions. Exactly what problem that's going to cause, other than for those of us who have our prefs set to show the short description, I'm not sure, but it seems like bad coding practice. --Trovatore (talk) 22:11, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Draft:सोहन नायक

Hello Interstellarity. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:सोहन नायक, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The reason given is not a valid speedy deletion criterion. Thank you. Primefac (talk) 19:37, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

@Primefac: Thank you. I just have a question. If a page in mainspace or draftspace is written in a foreign language, does it qualify for deletion? Interstellarity (talk) 19:48, 27 December 2019 (UTC)
WP:A2 covers articles written in a foreign language, but there is no similar criteria for the draft space. If it's part of AFC, then it should be declined as being non-English. If it's not submitted, then the creator should be notified and otherwise it will be deleted in six months. Primefac (talk) 01:52, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Ways to improve Bahamas Life

Hello, Interstellarity,

Thank you for creating Bahamas Life.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

It would be good if you could find some independent, reliable sources to help support the notability of this show - the Country Living article was the best I could come up with, but I'm not ideally placed since a lot of US media sites are blocked in the UK for legal reasons - if you can find a couple of good sources, I'd be happy to see the tags removed. Cheers

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 prepend it with {{Re|Girth Summit}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

GirthSummit (blether) 15:23, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

@Girth Summit: How about this source: https://www.backstage.com/casting/bahamas-life-164057 ? Sometimes, you can use a VPN or proxy to access US sites from the UK. I live in the US and I'm not sure which country has more websites blocked. Please let me know your thoughts on this site. Interstellarity (talk) 15:28, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
Does it meet the notability guidelines to have an article? Interstellarity (talk) 15:28, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
Interstellarity, hi there. I've never really investigated using VPNs/proxies - sounds a bit too technical for my liking! I'm afraid that source looks a directory listing - and it looks like the listing was paid for by the company behind the program. What you are looking for is something genuinely independent, giving the subject significant coverage. A review in a respectable newspaper, or on a website that meets WP:RS would be a good bet. If you can find a couple of them, then notability would be covered. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 15:34, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
@Girth Summit: I did a Google search here and I'm not sure these sources are independent, reliable, and discuss the topic in detail. Does the topic meet notability criteria? Interstellarity (talk) 16:21, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi - no, I'm afraid that nothing in that search looks suitable. Briefly:
  • IMDB is UGC - unreliable, doesn't add to notability
  • HGTV is affiliated - not independent, doesn't add to notability
  • TV Guide is just a listing, rather than a review - trivial rather than significant coverage, doesn't add to notability
  • I was hopeful about the TV Over Mind website to begin with, since it's a reasonably detailed review - however, on closer inspection, it's UGC - the piece is written by a 'contributor', rather than a staff write. You can see more discussion of this kind of thing at RSP - take a look at what it has to say about Forbes.com 'contributors'. This doesn't add to notability.
  • Amazon.com is selling it - not independent - doesn't add to notability...
You can see where I'm going with this - I did a search like that myself, the best thing I found was the Country Living ref. Try being a bit more inventive with your search terms though - "Bahamas Life" + Review for example, see if you can find any independent reviews in reliable media - that's really your best bet. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 16:29, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
@Girth Summit: It can be hard to do a search sometimes because when I do a Google search on this topic, I can get results related to the TV series or what life is like in the Bahamas. I did a search for something like "Bahamas Life TV", I get a lot of sources that are either user generated or not independent of the subject. Interstellarity (talk) 16:37, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
Interstellarity, yeah - searching for sources can be tricky! Set Google to show you more links per page, so you can scroll past the rubbish more easily, and try a few different search terms. Perhaps consider also searching Google News, rather than regular Google - it might not give you anything, but sometimes it provides reviews that appear in newspapers, or something that might be helpful. Good luck. GirthSummit (blether) 16:39, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

Please remove both the tags Megastar and Complete Actor from the characters portrayed by Prithviraj Sukumaran and Suresh Krishna respectively since more than two decades. These are the tags used by Mollywood actors Mammootty and Mohanlal (you can check on Google). Neither of the characters were so called in the movie.
