Gibraltar general election, 1992

Hi Moonraker, many thanks for creating this article! I made a minor correction. Would you be interested in completing the list of articles for all elections in Gibraltar? --Gibmetal 77^{talk 2 me} 12:41, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

OK thanks, I'll look out for party manifestos. Although it was common in the past for independent candidates to stand for election. --Gibmetal 77^{talk 2 me} 13:08, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Green's Lodge Battery

Moonraker, there's been a reply to the concerns you expressed in your review of this DYK nomination back in December. Can you please see whether this addresses the issues you raised with the hook and articles? Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:09, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Kirishitan

Thanks, but it will take a lot of work from someone to actually merge those two. Though the issue has nothing to do with foreign words, the fork is due to an editor agitating about "contuing Christian" groups in the Catholic community in Japan. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:34, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Middlemores

Hello, I've just begun a page on Thomas Middlemore, and in the process noticed this remark by User:Middle More about the rejection of an article on Sir William Hawkslow Middlemore on grounds of notability. Sir William would seem the sort who's up your street – and I'm sure an article could be created about him – so I thought I'd let you know. Ericoides (talk) 10:07, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Mostar

I came here to thank you for reacting so quickly to the Anne St. Leger nomination, and was amazed to see that the first thing featured on your user page was a photograph of my home town. Having recently moved to Sarajevo, I am still getting used to not passing by the bridge every day. Thank you for the review and for making me smile. Surtsicna (talk) 21:16, 4 February 2013 (UTC)

I did not expect a greater link. I am touched that you found it touching enough to place an image of it on your page. You might be interested in reading about Gimnazija Mostar, the renovation of which is also quite symbolic. I have nominated it for DYK.

Walter de Manny article move

You recently boldly moved Walter de Manny, 1st Baron Manny to Walter Manny, 1st Baron Manny with the edit summary "name in England." I would point out that the 1911 Encyclopædia Britannica disagrees, and in Manny's own time, English names frequently used the French preposition de before locative surnames, due to the post-conquest influence of Norman Middle French on the English language, a practice reflected in contemporary and subsequent literature on English nobility of the late Middle Ages (particularly those of the period c. 12th-15th centuries). Walter de Manny is in fact his WP:COMMONNAME in English, just as the COMMONNAMEs of many of his contemporaries also incorporate de (e.g. John de Montacute, 1st Baron Montacute and William de Montacute, 2nd Earl of Salisbury).

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day

Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.

Quality

Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content

Is more content needed?

Headings

Does this article have an appropriate section structure?

Images

Is the number of illustrative images about right?

Links

Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?

Sources

For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

Paul Monod

Hello! I am writing on behalf of my father, Paul Monod. He is honestly curious as to your identity, and why you wrote a Wikipedia article about him. He's flattered, naturally, and thanks you for writing it. Are you from Wiltshire? I know that moonraker is a name for people from that county, and not just a James Bond film! Honestly I'm pleased that someone thought my dad was notable enough to merit a Wikipedia article. Then again, being his son, I suppose I'm a bit biased! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Novademon2010 (talk • contribs) 15:51, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Extermination of “likely”

I do not agree with your mass stylistic changes, which are not backed by consensus. Incnis Mrsi (talk) 07:13, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

"Likely" is a good English word, in its place, and does not need to be "exterminated", but there is a real split between British and American English and also between formal and informal use. See (for instance) here, where oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com says "In standard British English the adverb likely must be used with a word such as most, more or very: We will most likely see him later. In informal North American English likely is often used on its own: We will likely see him later. ◇ He said that he would likely run for President." Moonraker (talk) 04:32, 24 June 2013 (UTC)

Hello Moonraker, couple of nice articles there, thanks... Just wondering if there's a discrepancy here between "Three years later [i.e. 1852] he proceeded MA at Cambridge and was called to the bar, but did not pursue a career as a barrister" and my recent addition "In 1857 he was a founding member of the Alpine Club, the club meeting in his Lincoln's Inn chambers before it leased rooms of its own at 8 St Martin's Place, Trafalgar Square"?

Battle of Sandwich (1460)

I have a conundrum. The battle of Sandwich 1460, is called a naval battle/skirmish. However, according to The Reign of King Henry VI by Ralph Griffiths, this was a minor land skirmish between the Lancastrians and Yorkists.

My conundrum is, should I go ahead and change the battle to what this source state?(the only source is a link that is not searchable) or leave it and simply mention it on the talk page and hope for a response? I have also considered letting user:Neddyseagoon know as well. Thanks. --Kansas Bear (talk) 06:14, 23 July 2013 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot

We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.

IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.

Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day

Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.

Quality

Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content

Is more content needed?

Headings

Does this article have an appropriate section structure?

Images

Is the number of illustrative images about right?

Links

Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?

Sources

For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 11:35, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

Royal Naval College, Greenwich

I think you may be on the wrong path with categorising Royal Navy officers as "graduates" of the R.N.C. as from 1873 onwards all military branch officers had to pass through in order to reach the rank of Lieutenant, but they also had to go to Excellent and later Vernon in order to qualify for the rank. Having "Passed R.N.C." was just part of the process and to call them "graduates" seems an artificial label. Regards, —Simon Harley (Talk | Library). 07:53, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

Citation template

Hi Moonraker!

I noticed you recently removed a citation template from a couple references. I was just wondering, is there a problem with the template? I'm asking because I use that template frequently. Thanks! Wilhelm Meis (☎ Diskuss | ✍ Beiträge) 15:17, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi, Wilhelm Meis! I admit I don't like the "Harvard" style template, which should really belong more in natural sciences than in an arts subject, but I wouldn't remove it where it had been used consistently. In Erasure (heraldry), a page I started, the citations followed a different pattern, so I removed it for consistency. By the way, I thought your additions and corrections were very useful. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Moonraker (talk) 15:28, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Very good, then. Alles klar. Danke! Wilhelm Meis (☎ Diskuss | ✍ Beiträge) 03:25, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Request

I address this request to you because I notice that you have an interest the St Augustine's Abbey article. Would you be so kind as to take a look at my draft User:Vejlefjord/St. Aug's Abbey (Draft) as a possible replacement? I had intended to expand the present article and add inline citations, but I found that much of it is word-for-word the same as other web sites without citations. E.g., the whole first paragraph is the same as http://www.touristlink.com/england/st-augustine-s-abbey.html and http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/churches-in-kent-books-llc/1103418568?ean=9781157087199. That along with gaps in information and dearth of sources cited led me to draft a possible replacement. Please give me your thinking about the draft’s possibilities and what needs to be done?

I have fond memories of the 1956-57 academic year that I spent at St Augustine's College, Canterbury (as a student from the USA) when it served as the Central College of the Anglican Communion and before the College area and the Abbey ruins were separated as they are now. Yes, that makes me very old. Vejlefjord (talk) 17:34, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for you prompt reply. Of course you are welcome to edit my draft. I have just tried to improve the Queen Elizabeth paragraphs, but feel free to do more. (I no longer have access to the Judith Roebuck book.) Feel free to expand the dissolution of the monasteries while remembering the link to the full article and that the dissolution in only part of the abbeys article. When you have done your editing, please advise me how to use the draft in relation to the present article. Thanks again Vejlefjord (talk) 18:29, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Greetings and thanks for all your edits. You suggested more links so I have added three. Vejlefjord (talk) 22:03, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Thomas Paine

It seems that we both enjoy editing articles for clarity. I had reviewed the article on Thomas Paine and made quite a few edits a few weeks ago, and now I see your edits. I do not wish to get into an edit war, nor to upset you by reverting all of your edits in one "Undo" edit. I thought I would discuss them with you and see if we can come to an agreement. I feel that a few of your edits were an improvement, but I disagree with a number of them. On a few others I am not sure, and I am asking a fellow editor for his opinion on them.

On the edits you made in the section "Line 21", visible in "View history", I do not agree with any of them. I think you added words that were unnecessary, making the article less concise.

I think you unnecessarily changed "he" to "Paine" too many times. When there is no other single male person mentioned nearby, it is clear that "he" is "Paine".

In the sentence describing his pamphlet "The Age of Reason", you changed "that advocates..., promotes..., and argues" to "advocating..., promoting..., and arguing". I think that here (not always), the direct tense is clearer and more elegant than the present participle. The only thing I would change is "advocates..., promotes..., and argues" to "advocated..., promoted..., and argued" (I realize they should be in past tense).

I do not think the word "the" is necessary before "debtors' prison".

"British writer Edmund Burke" is correct. "The" is not necessary before "British writer".

Paine "became deeply involved" in the French Revolution is better than "Paine became a participant" for two reasons: 1) "became deeply involved in" is much more interesting than "became a participant in". 2) When there is a choice between using a verb (or verb form) and a noun, the verb (or verb form) is usually the better choice. You could change "became a participant in" to "participated in", but that does not give any idea of the degree to which he participated, as the other phrase does.

"Firing", that is, "being fired", is American English. "Dismissal", meaning "firing", is British English. To most American ears, "dismissal" means when a teacher dismisses his or her students at the end of class or at the end of the school day. It is true that Paine was born in England. However, he was a major figure in the American War of Independence (or American Revolution), so I suggest the American "firing" or "fired" be used.

If I find any other things, I'll add them here. Do you feel strongly about the changes you made? Let's discuss. – CorinneSD (talk) 19:39, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

Not seeing any reply, I undid all of your recent edits to Thomas Paine, and then made a few individual edits, generally reflecting those of your edits that I felt were constructive.CorinneSD (talk) 20:17, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Move of SI (UK) to SI (GB)

Could you revert this move? I think it deserves some serious discussion at the very least.

Statutory instruments in the UK are a UK-wide concept, that is why they are referred to as "UK Statutory Instruments", see: [1]. What is more many of the SI's have effect throughout the whole of the UK. The first listed there [2] is an example of such an SI. They are almost all made by the UK Parliament and are UK instruments not "Great Britain" instruments. While NI has statutory rules, they are complementary to, not supplementary of, UK-wide SI's. Just as Acts of the Scottish Parliament run alongside UK Acts. Francis Davey (talk) 16:28, 28 November 2013 (UTC)

Idiomatic

Nice to see your name pop up on my watchlist. Please - if you have time - look at Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme (in progress), for translation of Frewdenspiegel and the like, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 23:54, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you! - "deß" is in wikisource, - should that be changed? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 00:26, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

A difficult call! For me, it depends on the context. If a title (or a name) containing "ß" appears surrounded by English text, then I prefer the double "s". If it's part of a passage quoted in German, then it's better to leave it. This is quite an old-fashioned approach, today's scholars seem to veer away from any form of anglicanization.

also here and here, FrewdenSpiegel ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 00:29, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I also found "FrewdenSpiegel". It looks so odd, but perhaps slightly less odd to a British or American eye than to a German one? If it's really the way the title was spelt, then I suppose for consistency we should use it. Moonraker (talk) 00:39, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

DYK for Robert Drayson

The DYK project (nominate) 23 October 2013 (UTC)

Apologies for this not getting posted. It may have been my fault for forgetting to add the DYKMake entry to the prep area (I'm fairly new at this). As for changing the hook, I needed a light/humorous hook for the last place, and the quip to Branson seemed ideal. However, both versions had some issues with wikilinks inside quotes, the first was awkward, and the second ALT1 proposed by you, although better, didn't refer to the article topic by name. So I rewrote it, and quite likely took one too many liberties with "high school", for which I also apologise. I would note, though, that "high school" does seem to be equivalent to "secondary school" in pretty much the entire English-speaking world outside of England and Wales, and even in England the term seems to be falling into use (eg here). -Kieran (talk) 17:53, 23 December 2013 (UTC)
