Adelaide

OliveYouBean - Please stop edit warring and let this be resolved on the talk page. Your actions are destructive. They also break Wikipedia's standards on dispute resolution, incl. Wikipedia:CYCLE (if there is new edit, later is revert by other user = first must to be discuss and consensus to new changes). Your actions are a typical example that you trying to push a POV. You have made three offenses: [1].

• 1) You restore in the intro a text with an aboriginal name. According to the discuss and per many sources, name apply only for the centre area, this name is added to Adelaide city centre [2]). There is no consensus on the use of a center name as the name for the entire Greater Sydney area.
• 2) you put content into the first paragraph of the article about a selected group of people who had a minimal impact on the construction of a modern city and constitute a small percentage of the population - which is extreme breaks Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. I moved this data to third paragraph, but you moved to the first paragraph as the most important information about Greater Adelaide, without any consensus.
• 3) you are removed templates inserted by another user - templates have been inserted correctly. The content of Traditional Owners in the introduction to the article is still debatable (still under discussion), and the sources have also been questioned. Verification of the sources showed that they are inconsistent with the content of the article and a breaks rule of Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Verifiability.

These are serious offenses. It's not that you have your own opinion. You are not allowed to break Wikipedia's rules. You restore wrong the sentence about the Aboriginal name of the city center and inserted it into the first paragraph of the article although not applicable Greater Adelaide + you have deleted templates inserted by another user - you have no right to delete them. You break Wikipedia:CYCLE. You put in the wrong sources and use OR. This behavior will not be tolerated. Subtropical-man (✉ | en-2) 09:08, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Preferred pronouns

You can edit Special:Preferences under user profile to set your preferred pronoun. Look for the gender section. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 11:28, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip! OliveYouBean (talk) 11:30, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

I don't really know my way around wikipedia yet and I'd like to ask if there is any way to stop that user from continually making editorialised edits without any consensus. Cheers Smashedbandit (talk) 10:59, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

imo the best solution is to try to get them to engage on the talk page. It's probably best if you don't revert their edits yourself for a while because you're already well past three reverts so could get blocked. If they keep reverting without properly engaging I will report them at WP:ANEW. OliveYouBean (talk) 11:04, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

I don't think this user is engaging in good faith at all. Ive tried to engage them in discussion numerous times and they have either ignored me and gone along with their own edits or name called. And with the three reverts rules can I make any more edits on that page? Since its been left in a mess with poor grammar, too many sources and a role that is not consistent with all other cricket pages which follow cricinfo. Smashedbandit (talk) 11:09, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

With 3RR you can edit the page, you just can't make reverts to other people's changes (there are some exceptions but they don't really apply here). I'll look through and see if there's anything that needs urgent changes though. OliveYouBean (talk) 11:13, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for the help and time mate, its incredibly frustrating to deal with this as I don't know all the ins and outs around wikipedia yet but this user is clearly just injecting his own personal opinions over that page Smashedbandit (talk) 11:23, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

That user is clearly not acting in good faith, look at the edit he made to this page, Najmul Hossain Shanto Smashedbandit (talk) 12:13, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Adelaide

Hello. You didn't write back to me against all these charges against you, but let's move on. Let's talk calmly, without emotions. I assuming your goodwill, I figured you just rolled back roughly all the changes without looking exactly what you were doing (you did not notice that you entered the wrong text with an Aboriginal name and removed the source templates). Let's analyze the changes in more detail. If look closely at the editing changes between your revision and mine (editi-war changes [3]), can be concluded that:

• your version added sencence about Kaurna people to first paragraph of intro of article about city. My version added sencence about Kaurna people to fourth paragraph of intro of article, near other historical text like "Early colonial Adelaide was shaped by the diversity and wealth of its free settlers (...)" - Don't you think that the fourth paragraph of intro, along with other data of this type, is more sensible for Kaurna people than the first! paragraph of intro of the article?
• your version added Aboriginal name to intro but the matter had already been clarified earlier in the discussion. The Aboriginal name refers to the center, not the entire metropolis (Greater Adelaide). The name was added to the article of Adelaide city centre by another user involved in the discussion[4]. I think you did it by mistake and the matter is solved. Yes?
• your version removed two templates added by other user, one template relates to an incorrect source. Generally, you are not allowed to delete these templates, this is a serious violation of the rules. However, here I can assume your mistake for a moment and let's leave this topic alone (as part of my goodwill and willingness to solve the problem). Do you agree?

If you agree with these three points, that solves the problem of edit-war. However, there is still a separate question - whether information about Traditional Owners / Kaurna people should be included in the intro of the article at all. This is a broad topic, so I propose to conclude the discussion on this in Talk:Adelaide.

But before we continue discussion about "Kaurna people should be included in the intro or not" in Talk:Adelaide, I want to make sure that you understand the current version of the article and you will not continue the edit-war. Is everything understandable in current version of article and can we continue the discussion about Kaurna people in Talk:Adelaide? Subtropical-man (✉ | en-2) 14:23, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

Why are you relitigating the discussion from ANI? I think that needs to run its course. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 15:39, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

rsjaffe, this thread of discussion concerns a purely substantive matter, not related to ANi, but to the content of the article of Adelaide. Subtropical-man (✉ | en-2) 16:38, 9 October 2022 (UTC)

I already explained on the talk page why I rolled back your edits: you didn't have consensus, and the talk page discussion was ongoing. The talk page discussion was showing a developing consensus against your edits, because the content was not problematic like you assert. I agree that this discussion should take place on Talk:Adelaide, where people have given more detailed arguments, but I also don't want to go back to that right now while the discussion at ANI is also still ongoing because I think that should be resolved first. That way we can go back to the content dispute once any behavioural issues are dealt with. OliveYouBean (talk) 06:09, 10 October 2022 (UTC)

		Thanks for keeping cool and hanging in there during this protracted and messy ANI dispute! Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 06:11, 24 October 2022 (UTC)

The 1 pixel Moon

Hi, thanks for the edit which made me check again and come up with the full name (good collab). I came across this on another site a couple days ago and actually finger-scrolled through the whole thing, took close to half an hour maybe (I didn't time it, 20 minutes maybe?) but worth the trip in order to get a perspective of the size of the Solar System (checked our Solar System page and it was already linked). Putting my attention back on it (thanks) I'll probably add it to my top of talk page list. Randy Kryn (talk) 01:46, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

I've been scrolling through it on my laptop for like half an hour now, finally made it up to Uranus! :D It's definitely worth the read. OliveYouBean (talk) 01:47, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

lol. Takes a long time. I've added it to my talk page thanks to your inspiration. A good mental exercise. Randy Kryn (talk) 01:54, 27 December 2022 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently been editing discussions about infoboxes and to edits adding, deleting, collapsing, or removing verifiable information from infoboxes which has been designated a contentious topic. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;

comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;

follow editorial and behavioural best practice;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

WIkiProject Doctor Who Newsletter: July 2024

The Space-Time Telegraph Volume II, Issue I — July 2024 Brought to you by the editors of WikiProject Doctor Who Okay–ooh. New teeth newsletter. That's weird... Hello! Welcome to the first regenerated issue of The Space-Time Telegraph, the official newsletter of WikiProject Doctor Who. We hope it finds you well in your safe travels across the Whoniverse! This newsletter was founded in 2008 and seemed to get lost in the time vortex quite quickly. Thanks to the Doctor dragging Sutekh through the time vortex and bringing life by bringing death to death (yeah... I'm a little confused too), it seems to have regenerated. The writing staff hopes to bring you future editions quarterly. For this first edition, we have created an updated version of our mailing list that includes any active editors who previously had their usernames included in our participants list. If you do not wish to receive future editions, please remove your name from the mailing list. If you no longer wish to participate in the project, please also remove your name from the participants list. I think that's enough about the newsletter for now. Let's dive into interesting things happening within the Doctor Who side of Wikipedia. Geronimooooo..... Big Spike in Productivity During 2024, the project has scored 8 GAs, 2 FLs and a GT, up from last year's 4 GAs and a GT. Several additional things are in the pipeline, with a bunch of things currently having been nominated with some mix of OlifanofmrTennant, TheDoctorWho, and Pokelego999 having their names attached to them. Allow me to look into the nominees. Series 14: As of July 18th, every single episode has been sent to GAN, with "Boom", "73 Yards", and "The Devil's Chord" having made it to GA. 2023 Specials: Early in the year, as part of trying to not lose the WikiCup, Ollie sent "The Star Beast" (still salty about the move) to GAN. It was reviewed by frequent collaborator (fly high) of hers, but failed. She then fixed it up and sent it back where it passed. Later "The Giggle" was expanded and sent to GA, followed shortly by "Wild Blue Yonder". WBY received help by JustAnotherCompanion, a pretty fresh user. This other companion chose not to be listed as co-nom. A page was created for "Destination: Skaro" and quickly got GA status. The Daleks' Master Plan was also sent to GAN by Rhain. It passed to join Rhain's other First Doctor content, being the fourth season three article to get the green check. Peter Capaldi: The filmography and newly created awards of Capaldi were both sent to FLC and passed. Capaldi's main page was sent to GA, though due to some minor incompetence on the part of the nominator it was failed. Proposals to the WikiProject A recent proposal at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Doctor Who suggested potential improvements and suggestions for the main page of the project, as well as discussions about the project overall. The proposals are as follows: The Task Forces section should be removed due to inactivity in the Torchwood Task Force, and a lack of significant interest in creating further Task Forces. The freenode channel no longer works and should be removed due to most discussion taking place on site. Due to the low quality of Lungbarrow and Jubilee despite being sample articles, these articles should either be removed as samples or improved. Additionally, the "sample device" has a very small application field, and should be removed from the sample articles section. An updates infobox should be included, similarly to those used by Wikipedia:VGCHAR. Radio Times's Doctor Who sections should be included in the references section due to their benefits for the project sourcing wise. The Deletion Discussion archive should be removed, or have work invested in updating it, due to its lack of updates. If you feel you have any thoughts or suggestions on these matters, or on any other matters pertaining to the project and its main page, feel free to chime in the ongoing discussion. Discussions of Note A move discussion is currently underway on whether or not Doctor Who series 14 should be moved to Doctor Who season 1 (2024). The discussion also involves conversation on a few other adjacent articles. If you have an opinion on the matter please read over the discussion or leave comments. Contributors TheDoctorWho (talk) Pokelego999 (talk) Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) If you wish to contribute to future editions of the newsletter, leave a message on the WikiProject talk page or reach out to one of the current contributors listed above.

WIkiProject Doctor Who: September 2024 Newsletter

The Space-Time Telegraph Volume II, Issue II — September 2024 Brought to you by the editors of WikiProject Doctor Who You like Doctor Who? What's his name then? Welcome Hello and welcome to the second issue of the new newsletter! Following the success of the first newsletter we are back to write more stuff. Articles for deletion Several articles have been nominated for deletion, such as Time War (Doctor Who), and several articles have been deleted, or merged or redirected, especially those relating to books, due to lack of WP:SIGCOV and WP:NBOOK. Editors can always help either by participating in the deletion discussions (which are noted on the project page), adding to such articles, or bringing attention to other such articles through AfD or the WikiProject talk page, to aid in clean-up. Notice of Draft Articles A new Doctor Who spin-off was announced at the 2024 San Diego Comic-Con, called The War Between the Land and the Sea, and will feature old and new Whoniverse characters working for UNIT as they battle the Sea Devils. The main space article currently redirects to Whoniverse, but collaboration is currently underway in a draft article. As filming on this miniseries has recently begun, its relocation to the mains space will presumably take place soon per the recommendations laid out at WP:NTV. There is also a draft article in progress for the upcoming 2024 Christmas special. While this article won't be moved until the episode airs, any new contributions are welcome. Doctor Who News A small number of editors have recently raised questions regarding the reliability of Doctor Who News. This website is particularly used for information regarding viewing figures and the Appreciation Index of most episodes as well as some news information. If there is a better source for any information supported by this website, it should be replaced in good faith. A full consensus on whether or not to remove the information that can't be supported by a different source has not yet been reached. Any editor who has opinions on this matter should contribute to the discussion on the WikiProject talk page. Continued Progress Towards Good/Featured Content There has been lots of progress made towards recognized articles in the last two months, related to such diverse categories as series, specials, lists and episodes A sub-page has also been added to the WikiProject, to list any possible goals we can aim towards. Proposals Regarding the State of Fictional Elements Articles in the WikiProject Several proposals have been laid out regarding fictional elements in the WikiProject, which includes fictional characters, locations, and more. Due to a concerning quality state regarding the large majority of them, several methods of tackling them in order to improve these articles' quality for the future have been proposed. The primary three proposals are as follows: 1. A priority list should be made to determine what articles are most pressing and in need of improvement in the WikiProject overall. Focus would be put onto important subjects and articles in a state of dubious notability that would make them viable for deletion processes such as AfD. 2. A group of articles is selected for improvement, which are ones deemed most relevant to the WikiProject for the future. Any lesser important subjects can be sidelined and worked on as editors see fit. 3. A long term goal is made to improve all elements. This will come at the caveat of taking significantly longer and requiring more heavy participation than the above two proposals, but would guarantee a slow and steady way to solve the issue. If any editors are interested in chiming into the conversation and sharing their piece on how this should be handled, or if any editors wish to help with this proposal and improve fictional elements articles, then feel free to share thoughts at the discussion's section on the article's talk page.
