Flag icons

Please do not add flag icons to articles to show German Americans, for instance, to have allegiance to Germany. German Americans are Americans and are likely to have allegiance to the American flag. Binksternet (talk) 14:40, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Agreed - as I noted in the edit summary for New Hampshire, the flags should not be associated with ethnicities - they are used (when used at all, and they should be used sparingly because they can easily be a visual distraction) to designate items associated with the actual country. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 16:04, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Roger Federer career statistics

You keep adding things that are against our guidelines. The timeline chart cannot contain the flags for the tournies and the minor tournaments are not to be added to a timeline. They are over trivial and the page is over its size limit as it is. We are looking to trim 30-40k and you add stuff that has been rejected by the Tennis Project. Please go through our guidelines here to help better your understanding. Thanks. Fyunck(click) (talk) 09:09, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Federer–Nadal rivalry

Could you kindly explain your rationale for adding the flagicons to Federer's and Nadal's names in the head-to-head list of matches in the Federer–Nadal rivalry article? The flagicons are, quite frankly, redundant, and do not add anything constructive to the article. It's already been mentioned several times in the lead and in the body of the article that Federer is Swiss and that Nadal is Spanish. Thanks. Prayerfortheworld (talk) 07:31, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

There is so much text on the right side of the graph that it is difficult to connect the name to the tournament. Since everyone knows that Nadal is Spanish and Federer is Swiss the flags provide a visually pleasing way of clearly seeing who won. Also, the flags symbolize each win and clearly identify which player was dominant at certain periods as well as highlighting streaks.

Actually, you cannot assume that everyone knows that Nadal is Spanish and Federer is Swiss. However, this does not mean that the flags are not redundant. The issue of the flags' visual appeal is purely subjective; it depends on the viewer's knowledge of each player's nationality as well as the viewer's opinion on the presence of the flagicons. I personally feel that they are a distraction and add nothing constructive to the table, per the aforementioned reasons (redundancy and such). Also, it cannot be said that the wins that Federer secured over Nadal or vice versa show the player's dominance during that time; for example, Federer was arguably the dominant player in the tennis world during the first few years of his rivalry with Nadal, a fact that is obscured by the fact that Nadal had a winning streak against Federer in 2005 and 2006. Prayerfortheworld (talk) 07:48, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

I meant the dominant periods in the rivalry. They are not redundant because the 10 Swiss flags symbolize Federer's ten wins and vice versa. Please do not delete them. Thanks.

The flagicons still do not add anything constructive to the table. The dominant periods in the rivalry and the streaks or whatnot can be seen even without the addition of the flags. Prayerfortheworld (talk) 16:51, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Roger Federer career statistics (section 'Singles performance timeline')

You have twice removed my edit of this section, with no explanation. Please let me know what you consider the problem to be. Thanks. Free2brag (talk) 06:25, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

(No apparent response from Praline97). I now notice that you have removed my similar edit of the Novak Djokovic article. From my point of view, this seems highly inappropriate. If you consider what you are doing to not be vandalism, please respond to my requests for a discussion. For example: Do you think that I am adding too much material to already-quite-long articles? If so, we could discuss that here: Talk:Roger Federer career statistics#Page size problem. Do you object to the wording of the footnotes? Do you object to the references I chose? Let's discuss this.

Big Four chart for the sight-challenged

Your addition of flags to a chart breaks WP:ACCESSIBILITY. First, we have to keep flag icons to a minimum in all articles, but more importantly we cannot use color or flags as the main source of conveying information because they do not register in screen readers for the blind nor do they work well for the color-blind.

Thank you for your contributions. One of your recent contributions to Angelique Kerber has been reverted or removed, because it contains speculative or unconfirmed information about a future event. Please only add material about future events if it is verifiable, based on a reliable source.
On January 30 2016, you cannot say that something happened on February 1 2016. Wait till February 1, then you can edit the article and say it happened. Until then, it has not happened yet. You can only say something will happen on February 1, but as you can see, the article already says that. Infoboxes, however, only state the current, official state, which, in this case, you can verify on the WTA website.—J. M. (talk) 20:34, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

May 2016

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Republican Party presidential primaries, 2016. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Amccann421 (talk) 05:22, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

Source of third-party vote counts?

Hello, Praline. I noticed that you just changed the number of votes for third-party candidates in many California counties, and removed the original reference for the vote values. Can you supply a reliable source for your data? Otherwise, we'll have to revert. Thanks! —hike395 (talk) 01:26, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

@Hike395: I created all the tables in the first place, and the reference is where all the information was originally from: http://uselectionatlas.org/ All the data is now correct, so if you revert it you will be reverting it to incorrect information. I only removed a reference note on one or two pages where it was placed incorrectly inside the table and distorted the entire column.

Thanks for updating the data. Would it be possible to add a reference (perhaps in the caption?) so that editors can verify the voting data? You'd be surprised that there are data vandals --- people purposefully corrupt tables in WP, especially climate data. Just today, I found that someone entered a fake name for the world's oldest tree: the name was in the article for two months, and people started to adopt it out in the internet.

I periodically go through and spot-check changes to tables. Without a reference to check, I assume that a change is likely to be data vandalism.

Thanks for the tables and keep up the good work! —hike395 (talk) 03:19, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Nowrap?

What is all that non-consensus nowrap stuff you added to Federer? I thought it was an anon IP changing the standard chart. If the columns are set wide enough to accommodate the widest text, that should be fine. We want the charts as narrow as possible to handle the information, yet the columns set wide enough to handle the info. And if a chart crunches a bit to handle a smaller window so we don't have to scroll, so much the better. I was trying to figure out how the odd coding was getting into some articles. I assume that's not you as the lone anon IP also adding the nowrap? Fyunck(click) (talk) 23:00, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

@Fyunck(click): I never edit anon, and stand by those nowrap edits. The charts had been vandalized so that in a full page with no reason for column wrapping, the distortion was occuring. You should be thanking me. You are welcome.

I don't see the wrapping. I checked all the charts and they didn't wrap in full page mode. Maybe it's browser specific. Which laptop browser are you using? Fyunck(click) (talk) 10:23, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

@Fyunck(click): Haha you don't see the wrapping issue because I fixed the column widths last night!! I use MacBook Pro and Chrome.

There was no wrapping even before you fixed it in my browser... firefox. Fyunck(click) (talk) 19:20, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

I'm beginning to think it IS a browser specific problem. They all look great in Firefox. They bunch up in IExplorer and a little in Chrome. They all seem to look fine in full screen if we use the standard of no column widths at all. I think that's the way it's supposed to be. Once we start adding column widths, if it looks great in IE it looks way wide in Firefox (or vice-versa). Sorry for not checking that to begin with. If using firefox I'll have to make everything about 10 pixels wider or remove the width completely. Fyunck(click) (talk) 11:13, 6 March 2017 (UTC)

width parameter problem

Here's the thing with the width parameter. There are some who want to not have duplicate charts for both the career stats and main page article, so they are using html to take just the Grand Slam tournament info but using the chart parameters on the main page. Those width statements look terrible on the main page since it doesn't have all the same info. I have no problem with the width statements in particular charts (and it's used that way in our guidelines) but then we can't use WP:LST to transpose that info to the main page grand slam chart (which per guidelines does not use the width statement). It will have to be a duplicate to avoid all the dead air. Fyunck(click) (talk) 04:25, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

Roger Federer career statistics errors

Ok... we seem to have a communication error and I'll assume it's a bad on my part, so I will try to be clearer. We are slowly conforming ALL players to match our consensus Tennis Project Guidelines and I happened to work on the Federer page the other day. I just updated the Federer Career Statistics article so please don't change to a non-Guideline setup. It took me hours to get it right. If you need a refresher on the guideline section see our Article Guidelines as that's what we use. Thanks. As for England... we never use England in charts of countries. Every other placename in the tennis charts uses the nation name, and United Kingdom is the nation that hosts Wimbledon. Just like Andy Murray's nation is the UK, not Scotland.

Speedy deletion nomination of Federer–Murray rivalry

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Federer–Murray rivalry, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for Deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discusion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

2018 US gubernatorial elections infobox

I'm not going to edit war over it, but the IP has a point about adding the territorial governors results to the infobox, too. After all, the article isn't restricted to just the state governorships. We have the territorial results in the infoboxes at the 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015 US gubernatorial elections articles.

April 2019

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

COVID Deaths Edit

Hi,

I saw you recently made an edit regarding COVID deaths in the USA. I'm not able to find a source for your edit, and it seems incredibly high so I reverted it and replaced it with the source page's numbers. Do you have a source for your edit? ☃ Unicodesnowman (talk) 04:53, 8 July 2020 (UTC)
