Revert of my move of Phipps Bridge to Phipps Bridge estate

[edit]

Hi.

You reverted my move of move of Phipps Bridge to Phipps Bridge estate with the comment An area of London with 500 years of history is far more notable than a 20 year old tram stop. Which may well be, but the article that I was moving is very clearly about a housing estate built in the 1950s, and not about an area of London with 500 years of history. I can see nothing about 500 years of history, but the first five words of the article are Phipps Bridge is a housing estate, and the first sentence of the history secton is Phipps Bridge was built in the 1950s and 1960s.

If indeed Phipps Bridge has 500 years of history, then I'm entirely cool on us having an article on it with primary disambiguation, but Phipps Bridge in its current state is quite clearly not that article. I don't know enough about the area to say if the 500 year old Phipps Bridge is coterminous with the 1950s housing estate (in which case the current article probably needs to stay but with a very heavy rewrite) or they are different, perhaps overlapping, areas (in which case it is probably better for my move to go ahead and then somebody to write another article called Phipps Bridge about the 500 year old area).

I shall hold off on my move for now, and await to see what develops. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 16:27, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Just seen your comment on Talk:Phipps Bridge and copied this response there. Probably better discussed there, so we can get a wider contribution. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 16:45, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yikes

[edit]

I'm not sure how I missed the notice that was already there so thanks for this. I notice that the toollabs:fengtools/reflinks in the message goes to the old refill tool and not the updated one. Do you think that should be changed? Thanks again for catching my "space case" edit. MarnetteD|Talk 20:09, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Probably because the notice was hidden and in a different part of the editing window. It was introduced on 29 September 2014, so presumably before the updated refill tool. I personally would link the old tool, on the grounds that if the new one was better it would've moved, but if you feel strongly either way feel free to move it.--Launchballer 20:29, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply and the research. For those of us who fix bare urls the new one is better and accomplishes more. I think it is one of those situations where the tool/MOS/policy/guideline gets changed at one while spot the updating in other areas effected get missed. This happens at the film project all the time :-) I just noticed that User:Zhaofeng_Li/reFill#reFill_2 still lists it as "under development" and that finished months ago. If I get the time I'll ask at the village pump. Cheers and have a pleasant weekend. MarnetteD|Talk 20:50, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Your BLPVIO on the D’banj Article & WP:NPOV

[edit]

Hello per your edits on the D’banj article, I fear you are not adhering to the tenets of the neutral point of view policy we mandated to implement in all our edits in this collaborative project. Per WP:SUSPECT, I believe we should be fair when dealing with that particular article (as it is an ongoing investigation) You recall I once told you to leave that article alone for now & let expert Nigerian editors edit it instead as they are more knowledgeable & best suited in this regard? Now In this good faith edit you thought you probably made here you made a terrible blunder as the original information there actually was very much correct, please, please & please be more careful when handling biographies of living person. See BLPVIO & Furthermore Per WP:NPOV, I have changed the word “rape” to “sexual assault” You may as well change it back if you disagree with me. Thank you for your time.Celestina007 (talk) 21:23, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh I have done. WP:SUSPECT does not apply here as D'banj is a public figure (I've heard of him and I'm from London). WP:BLPPUBLIC says that "BLPs should simply document what [reliable published sources] say", which means it is unacceptable to claim that the allegations are only of sexual assault. And as I said before, I don't believe the nationality of editors has any relevance on their suitability. I've also gone ahead and corrected your wikilink in the header but you should really use WP:Show preview.--Launchballer 21:48, 26 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Signup

[edit]

Hi Launchballer,

Gary here!:), I’m just wondering, how would you go about creating an account on the following wikis, (both of which you are an administrator on).

  • The Countdown Wiki - Account creation is currently disabled due to “persistent vandalism”.
  • Ukgameshows.com - There is nothing about signing up.

Gary-Ashcroft1988 (talk) 15:08, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

UKGameshows.com is easy, because you haven't looked very far. On the main page find the phrase "Join Us" on the right-hand side and follow the instructions there. I'm also not an administrator on that site. The Countdown Wiki I need to ask about.--Launchballer 16:13, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Oh OK, I’ll have a look.

What do you want to ask about Countdown Wiki? Gary-Ashcroft1988 (talk) 16:23, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The sockpuppeteer who caused the lockdown tried to contact another administrator as recently as last week.--Launchballer 16:30, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Oh I completely understand that, I can’t do any social media checks as I don’t use Twitter ,Facebook etc. Gary-Ashcroft1988 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 16:37, 15 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
As for Apterous, what I suggest you do is create an Apterous account, and contact a chap called Charlie Reams. My instructions for UKGameshows.com stand.--Launchballer 10:09, 17 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rosehill

[edit]

Hi Launchballer, could you please explain why you reverted my edits to Rosehill? Your edit summary cites MOS:DABONE but I didn't add multiple blue links to any entry? Instead, the majority of the changes that I made were adding single blue links to red-linked entries (as per MOS:DABRED). The other changes that I made, listed in my edit summary, are included in MOS:DAB as well. Leschnei (talk) 22:12, 20 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Anton du Beke

[edit]

Anton Du Beke needs moving back to Anton du Beke. The official Strictly website has written his name as Anton du Beke in his bio see here

The only reason it’s capitalised in social media profiles is because lowercase letters are often not allowed. I have tried changing the article left but it will not let me because of what you’ve done. You did not start a discussion before changing du Beke to Du Beke and therefore a discussion needs to be started before you change it. Messinwithbruce (talk) 23:20, 17 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

UKGS Covid article

[edit]

Thought this was a better way of contacting you, as the form on UKGS is not working. // At present the site states that RuPaul's Drag Race UK only got 1 episode of Series 2 in the can. Episode 2 came out last Thurs (21st) and was clearly pre-covid as well, so that needs correcting. Haven't seen anything either way on Ep3 yet. Spa-Franks (talk) 17:07, 25 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spa-Franks: I'm sure I read at the time that only one episode had been shot before lockdown. Annoyingly, I added that before I'd got into the habit of pasting URLs into the edit summaries, so I have no idea where I read it. Probably somewhere unreliable, which was why I didn't admit to using it. I've changed it to read 'mid-series' and have left a message on Staffers to say the form isn't working. As for the show, I've watched the 'Meet the Queens' episode, I'm still deciding whether or not 70 minutes of that is something I want to sit through.--Launchballer 01:52, 26 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Launchballer: Ah, we now have a definitive answer. Rather than try to hide the join, they've opted to make it stand out as much as possible. Episode 4 tonight has ended on a cliffhanger: the "next time" trailer for Episode 5 shows the moment that filming was suspended, with a hastily-made announcement video from RuPaul. You can see it here for yourself, timestamp 1:09:20. [1] Spa-Franks (talk) 21:41, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Kojey Radical page edits

[edit]

You left a message claiming the edits made to Kojey Radical's page were 'less than neutral', please clarify?

The new bio edits made included 1 press quote which was linked out to and listed a various number of artists he's worked on. This was cross referenced with other artist pages and does not seem any different to theirs.

Hi, when you get a minute, would you mind trying to fix the map in the infobox of this article? They have two branches, one in Morden and one in Sutton, but the Sutton one is the main one and the only one that is permanent.

WP:AFC Helper News

[edit]

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

  • AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
  • The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

About restoration and update of Kylian Mash

[edit]

Hi Launchballer ,

I hope you are good despite this crazy period. Happy to talk with someone having the same syndrom :)

I saw that you added a cleanup rewrite tag on my update. First, have you noticed that I have quickly update this article after an obvious vandalism made from an anonymous user with clearly bad intentions?

Due of this obvious vandalism, I had to revert this and restore the page according Wikipedia BLP Policy (contentious libelous and harmful material must be removed immediately according Wikipedia terms). Please understand my surprise when a contributor like you checked this edit under 10 hours, when absolutely no one have took actions against previous contentious, libelous and harmful material that then have stayed for more than one month online... At the end I believe the most important is that this vandalism is no more online.

Like you could have seen, I found a lot of reliable sources during my research on the subject. So I turned the article in a way to point out the bad intentions and the lies from the previous user as Wikipedia isn't a place to share personal opinions and frustrations, but documented facts right? Even if I made my best efforts to respect all the Wikipedia guidelines, I'm sure we can render this article better. Could you please explain me your rewrite tag and tell me with few examples how should I have written the parts causing problem for you? I will be please to make new changes and fit your request. I just don't have yet your experience and your help will be much appreciated.

Also, do you think there is now enough references and sources to remove the "more citations requested" tag added in 2020?

Thank you for you help and time. Please have in mind that I'm certainly not so experimented than you but I will always do my best if you help me Launchballer (an sorry for all the edits, I didn't wanted to annoying you!).

(.... Also I really wish your mental health will go better. I know that it can sometimes be very hard to go through this and you have all my support. Take care of you !)

I should start by saying your edit came to my attention because you added a link to an article I had created, which gave me a notification. I had no previous involvement with that article before then. I reverted your edits because they violated WP:EPSTYLE; please read that before making any further edits. For now, I have put it back to the last 'good' version.--Launchballer 01:54, 14 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hello back Launchballer, thank you for your answer and help.
I will take care of your suggest and make a new edit, as I believe I found many sources that should be exploited on this article, and that should lead to remove the actual tag.
Will work on it. Would be great if you could provide a clear example with for example the biggest mistake I made, a sentence that for you violating WP:EPSTYLE, and the correction you would have done. Then I'm pretty sure to be able to make the good corrections and be conform like it should. Thank you in advance, and again for your lights. KaptainEO (talk) 05:59, 18 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The Mash Report

[edit]

About your renaming of the Mash Report to Late Night Mash, I don't have a strong opinion, but it was discussed previously Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Television/Archive_35#The_Mash_Report_naming, and there was no consensus for the move then, so perhaps it should be discussed now. W. P. Uzer (talk) 13:29, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That conversation was eight and a half months ago, and comprised of two editors, one of whom was in favour, the other of whom wanted to see it get at least another series, which it has now done. I suggest waiting until the move's reverted.--Launchballer 20:41, 20 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Talia Mar Page

[edit]

Hi, Launchballer

Just wanted to ask a question about references regarding the Talia Mar page, before changed I had a few references from twitter and was considering some from YouTube but they are deemed "unreliable" I was just wondering why that is despite the information being public and posted by the user. In Talia's case there's info about her personal life and other career related info littered through her YouTube videos and social media but we can't use any of it due to it being "unreliable" despite it being factual information said/written by her herself. Just wanted to ask why this is the case and if we can do anything about it. Also what is a copyedit, I saw you posted that on the Talia article for deletion.

Matty Healy

[edit]

Hi! I've closed Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 April 17#Matty Healy without any action as that's not really within the scope of RfD. Moving the redirect Matty Healy out of the way is not an option, as that's the location of the long history of the article between 2016 and 2021. If the article is recreated, it will have to be at that page. You can just copy and paste your draft over the redirect. As you're the author of all the text to be copied, there are no licencing requirements to preserve the history of the draft. In case you'd like the history of your edits on the draft to be visible in the article history, then you can request a WP:HISTMERGE.

Your version is substantially different from the articles that were previously discussed at AfD, so speedy deletion or redirecting won't be applicable. However, it would be a good idea to ping the participants of the previous AfDs, in case they would like to challenge the topic's notability via AfD again. Or if you absolutely want to see community consensus behind your version of the article, you can try the somewhat unorthodox step of sending it to AfD yourself. – Uanfala (talk) 11:47, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Uanfala - I've copied it over. An IP edited the draft while it was in userspace, so not histmerging it isn't an option. I'll be putting this through DYK, so I'm sure if it isn't notable, someone there will send it to AfD.--Launchballer 12:26, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It's about these two edits [2], right? The IP removed a bit of text and replaced "attempted" with "encouraged the hosts to impersonate". Neither of these changes add any copyrightable content to the text (the second one is below the threshold of originality), so there's no need to keep attribution in the sense of WP:COPYRIGHT. However, there may be other reasons to want to keep the history (say, edit summaries explaining things in the text), so if you prefer a history merge, you can ask for one. – Uanfala (talk) 12:50, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
