Oops

Howdy. Ya might've made a mistake with your deletion at Prime Minister of Australia. I was speaking about the 'Acting Prime Minister' section & not the 'Former Prime Minister' section :) GoodDay (talk) 18:40, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

See Skyring/Pete's revert, at 17:57 19 August 2021. GoodDay (talk) 19:29, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

We don't know each other, so...

...It may not be the best idea to approach me for the first time as "dude". I'm not offended at all, but you may want to reconsider for the next time you need to speak with someone unfamiliar that may be offended. Dawnseeker2000 09:28, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

The problem with "needs discussion"

Per wp:DRNC, "If the only thing you have to say about a Wikipedia edit is that it lacks consensus, it's best not to revert it." If you say "needs discussion" then you should start a discussion on the talk page. See WP:SQSAVOID. Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 16:11, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Copied from User talk:Butwhatdoiknow:

Rewriting long-established Wikipedia guidelines in such a way that changes their meaning without prior discussion rarely meets with support or is a good idea.

(That said, I'm not sure if you realised that you changed the meaning/if it was just careless drafting, but either way.)

As in every other occasion where someone wants to change a guideline and meets with resistance, you need to actually get a consensus to do so. The Drover's Wife (talk) 23:34, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Per wp:PGBOLD, "you should not remove any change solely on the grounds that there was no formal discussion indicating consensus for the change before it was made. Instead, you should give a substantive reason for challenging it either in your edit summary or on the talk page." Per wp:DRNC: "Don't assert 'no consensus' because you believe others might object to an edit. Let those editors do their own reverting, then the original contributor will know who disagrees with the edit and why. Or perhaps no one will object because, in fact, a silent consensus exits to keep the change."

I encourage you to state any substantive objection you have to my edit at Wikipedia_talk:Red_link#August_25_revert.. That is the place to say the edit changed the meaning and explain why you believe (if you do) that the changed meaning is inferior to the original meaning. - Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 00:45, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

Copied from User talk:Butwhatdoiknow:

What a surprise to know that I'm not the only one who had a problem with your edit. For future reference, it's often best to start with the discussion first with long-established guidelines. The Drover's Wife (talk) 03:55, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

It occurs to me that I should explicitly acknowledge the validity of the advice you give in the second sentence. Per wp:PGBOLD,"most editors find prior discussion, especially at well-developed pages, very helpful." When I know that I am changing the meaning I follow that advice. Here's an example. (I continue to maintain that this advice does not justify a substance-free "discuss first" revert.) Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 15:29, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

The other editor does not complain that I edited without discussing first. Instead, that editor provided a substantive explanation for opposing the change. You still have not done that. For future reference, it's always best to provide a substantive reason for any revert. - Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 04:38, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

west- section

the west article 'audience' section was the problem - the clues are there but do not make a coherent reference -

i look at the diff and you have reinstated the article tag - it doesnt make sense - JarrahTree 12:46, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

and for the likes of me cannot see where the extra refs dont go into https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Lovekin_Prize_in_Journalism JarrahTree 12:50, 28 August 2021 (UTC)

its that time of night - reply onto the page where it is appropriate...

I used to live on forbes street darlinghurst, many moons ago, and there was a time in the evening when the cockroaches used to start their journey from the back lane up to the house, usually after sunset. My feeling about the whole aspect of the newspaper/journalism field in the oz project is that it needs a bomb under the kitchen table/bar stool - metaphorical of course - there is so much that has slipped in... Palace Hotel habitues included in the Lovekin article of course... - even funnier was the fact that between the hotel and the newspaper house as late as the 50's (I think) was an underground loo in the middle of the terrace... presumably for the journos on their way back to work...

Reverted changes on Brickendon and Woolmers Estates

I'm entirely unsure why you reverted my 2014 changes on Brickendon and Woolmers Estates with the note that it was vandalism. The two estates have separate articles (Brickendon Estate and Woolmers Estate, the page was therefore turned into a disambiguation entry. That is not vandalism.

Cabinet Template

I don’t know what your personal issue is with me, but I had up to now always treated you with respect and held you in high regard for all that you have contributed on Wikipedia over the years. We don’t always agree, but we can agree to disagree without resorting to bad faith accusations of being unwilling to compromise and threatening to roll back years of hard work and care that had been taken updating the ministry pages. As you know there’s just been a change of government and there’s a mood now for people to be less combative and to treat each other with greater respect regardless of our differences. Hopefully that can be the case here as well, from here on out. TheScrubby (talk) 02:44, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for your help on Indigenous placenames debate

Thanks for coming out of retirement to give your opinion on this debate, it's been a hell of an issue to work on. I knew it would be contentious, but as you probably know Wikipedia rules have been both extremely complicated and seemingly impossible to enforce. So it's been a hell of a time getting anything done. Thanks for your help. Poketama (talk) 12:29, 1 June 2022 (UTC)

Reverts of my page moves

Hi The Drover's Wife. Could you be a bit more specific as to why you undid my recent page moves? (For example Hawkesdale back to Hawkesdale, Victoria). There is no particular requirement that all pagemoves be discussed, and note that the naming conventions at WP:NCAUST state for Australian placenames, "the name of a city or town may be used alone if the place is the primary or only topic for that name". Do you have some other objection? I am happy to start a RM if necessary, but it would be a waste of time if you are only reverting due to a lack of discussion. Thanks. A7V2 (talk) 06:51, 23 June 2022 (UTC)

BLP DS notice

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 articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. 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.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. 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.

Nil Einne (talk) 09:18, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

Please do not edit BLP articles as long as you are going to make claims with can cause harm to many article subjects

BLP applies on talk pages. Your statements on Talk:Zoe Daniel are incredibly harmful to many subjects who have been affected by paid editing, sometimes without their knowledge and are therefore completely unacceptable. What's worse is that you know the media is watching this yet you continue to spout such utter nonsense. Please do not make such utter nonsense unacceptable claims again or I will ask for you to be blocked. 09:20, 12 July 2022 (UTC) Nil Einne (talk) 09:20, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

I would also remind you that putting aside other articles, you've effectively said that in this case if there were paid editing, it is surely the article subject. So if evidence does emerge whether on wikipedia or elsewhere, that their is paid editing, you've effectively caused the harm you are trying to avoid. So really I have no idea why on earth you would make such an utter nonsense claim which causes so much harm. You said somewhere that this is one of the worst BLP violations you've seen. I agree but except you're missing the point that the worst BLP violations here seem to be coming from you and not from anyone else. The tag should have been removed, but you've continued to make completely harmful claims unneeded for removing the tag which actually cause far greater harm than the tag every could because you're telling the media they're right even though they and you are utterly wrong. Even if there was paid editing, it's quite likely we'll never know who did it and will never know. The exception may be if this gets enough attention that someone investigates externally but that just illustrates the point that it's not something we here on wikipedia ever want to touch since it does not concern us. Nil Einne (talk) 09:48, 12 July 2022 (UTC)

And to be clear when I said evidence emerges I was not discussing tagging. The removal of the tag does not stop the media talking about the possibility of UPE. And while I don't care to investigate the details, since this originated offwiki, it's possible they would have been talking about even if there had been zero mention let alone tagging etc on wiki. Yet you think it's a good idea to tell the media if there is UPE, it's surely the article subject. What you want to do privately is up to you, but the fact you would repeat on wiki such a nonsense claim given the clear harm you risk causing is just unbelievable to me. You should be correcting wrong ideas the media and others have rather than re-enforcing them. The simple fact is UPE says nothing about an article subject, it's not our responsibility as editors to worry about who paid, other than demanding all paid editors disclose who paid as required by the ToU, in full knowledge it easily may not be the article subject knowingly or unknowingly. To tell the media we are fairly sure if there's UPE it's the article subject as you have done is very harmful since we do not know and there are plenty of cases where it is not.

Louisa Wall

Hi The Drover's Wife, I noticed that you reversed my edit] to the New Zealand politician Louisa Wall's article. I don't understand what was wrong with my edit. All I did was add a reputable media source documenting Lousia Wall's involvement with the Inter-Parliamentary Alliance on China along with a media statement that she and fellow member Simon O'Connor made in December 2020. This was meant to complement the Twitter post and IPAC webpage. Pleas explain what I did wrong and feel free to suggest ways of addressing this problem. Andykatib (talk) 09:06, 22 August 2022 (UTC)

Warning about edit warring

Your recent editing history at Ruby Tandoh shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. George Ho (talk) 22:48, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Notice of edit warring noticeboard discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion involving you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Edit warring regarding a possible violation of Wikipedia's policy on edit warring. Thank you. George Ho (talk) 23:13, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Your approach to others, especially with "retired" tag

I don't know what you have been hoping to achieve, especially with the "Retired" tag in your user page, despite your recent activities. But as the saying goes, "you win some, you lose some". If you're trying to act like you're 100% correct and I'm 100% wrong, then I don't know whether you've succeeded or not. Regardless, this and the two of us clashing each other and unable to agree with each other make me wonder whether our collaboration together will be no longer possible.

Speaking of "Retired", are you actually "retired" as claimed in your user page? If so, then why have you continued editing articles more often? Why not "semi-retired" instead? George Ho (talk) 09:01, 27 November 2022 (UTC)

Colour coding for members lists

Hello. You have just reverted two of my recent updates, the first of which I am very grateful for, I had not noticed the party name change, and am also bad at fixing redirects, so your fix was very much appreciated, thank you kindly.

The second revert however I am a bit more puzzled by removing the colour coding I had done for a Western Australian list. I was working off of the basic format laid out from the NSW members lists, and based on colour coding I had also seen on many US state lists, and had assumed adding colour coding for the other Australian states would be useful. However if this is not allowed or welcome, should I revert the other Western Australian ones, and does NSW need to be changed as well. I just want to make sure I am not drifting too far from policy or style manual, I genuinely thought the colouring would make the lists easier to read? Dauwenkust (talk) 04:34, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

G'day TDW, hope you are having a great break and had a good Xmas. Thanks for all your work on South Australian pollies. As I mentioned recently when we were discussing Ernest Roberts, I wanted to share that I am on a bit of a mission to improve bio articles on SA pollies who served. I currently have Jack Critchley at GAN. Even though I've got a couple of pollies to FA in the past (Bill Denny and Arthur Blackburn, I'm not sure how much interest there will be in some of these other guys from WP Military history members as in some cases their military service is incidental rather than the basis of their notability.

Women in Green GA Editathon June 2024 - Going Back in Time

Hello The Drover's Wife:

WikiProject Women in Green is holding a month-long Good Article Edit-a-thon event in June 2024!

Running from June 1 to 30, 2024, WikiProject Women in Green (WiG) is hosting a Good Article (GA) edit-a-thon event with the theme Going Back in Time! All experience levels welcome. Never worked on a GA project before? We'll teach you how to get started. Or maybe you're an old hand at GAs – we'd love to have you involved! Participants are invited to work on nominating and/or reviewing GA submissions related to women and women's works (e.g., books, films) during the event period. We hope to collectively cover article subjects from at least 20 centuries by month's end. GA resources and one-on-one support will be provided by experienced GA editors, and participants will have the opportunity to earn a special WiG barnstar for their efforts.

We hope to see you there!
