Making minute edits every year, you make minute edits every year! We can see it's very clear, you make minute edits every year! Users such as yourself who make a significantly low amount of edits just to keep your administrative tools sicken me and many others. Just give up the tools already!!!

- Hey, cool. But I basically just wrote the original article; many moons ago I realised that any article put forward for ITN would be taken over, not so much by gatekeepers, but by trivialistas and this hasn't proved me wrong.

Page name query
[edit]Hi there SN. I don't know if we've had the pleasure, but I've been aware of your prolific work for some time. Do you think the White Ship page ought to be named something like "White Ship disaster"? It has always struck me as odd that the title is merely the ship. Particularly strange since we have the Victims of the White Ship disaster article. Aza24 (talk) 01:12, 2 September 2024 (UTC)
- Aza24, hi, I've seen you around FAC, I think? Thanks for the note, and I must apologise for my tardiness in replying. I'm afraid I have a memory like a sieve nowadays :) I think you're prright, actually. To me, an article on a ship should be about the ship as a whole to which any disaster (say) is just a portion. I guess Titanic and Sinking of the Titanic is a similar example, if a far larger/more notable one. But for a medieval ship, there's only so much we can ever know about its order, construction, launch, victualing, crewing, ownership, voyages, etc., and where, like the White ship, the most notable event by far is its sinking, that's what the article focuses on, and of course, the article title should reflect the article itself. Per the principle of least astonishment, if the article is called the White Ship, then the reader will expect an article about the ship; likewise, if an article is called White Ship disaster, then they will know that when they click the link, they will find an article about the sinking rather than the boat itself. And as you say, that's already accepted logic in the Victims of article—that the disaster is effectively the primary topic.SerialNumber54129 15:16, 6 September 2024 (UTC)PS, if you happen to be around FAC these days, I've got something there at the moment, although if it bores you to tears, that's pretty understandable :) thanks for looking in again!

Thank you for your comments in the FAC, - I replied now, - interesting aspect! - Today's story has 3 composers, I couldn't decide for the one on the Main page or the one who didn't make it on his bicentenary, so took both, and the pic has a third. Listen if you have a bit of time. The music, played by the Kyiv Symphony Orchestra in Germany in April 2022, impressed me. - To celebrate the day, I listened to Bruckner's Eighth on radio, conducted by Dennis Russell Davies. -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 20:57, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Just thought it would be easier to discuss this on your talk than through edit summaries. If you think the close should be updated/corrected/whatever you should probably ask WereSpielChequers if that's what they would prefer. Primefac (talk) 14:10, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
- Very funny Primefac. Of course, you're absolutely right. And I no way meant to suggest trolling or anything like that. Merely a gentle... digging out, perhaps. Of the kind that Fram's probably used to by now. And probably doesn't care about. Because if he did, he wouldn't be where he is today. I guess I just don't like being thought of as stupid. I remember WSC from the London meetups, funnily enough, where—and I hope this isn't OUTING!—I seem to recall him regularly getting stuck into the famed Wetherspoon's mixed grill :) I hope he's still enjoying them! SerialNumber54129 14:51, 6 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm still a regular at the London meetup, but can't remember when I last ordered the mixed grill.

These days we have good and bad cholesterol and its the just the good cholesterol that I have a low level of. Spoons being known for their beer rather than their food I have a number of choices on their menu that I'm unlikely to try again, so nowadays it is the Mandalorian curry if I'm feeling virtuous or the steak and kidney pudding if I'm feeling that I've been healthy in my last month's dining.

- Hi Premeditated Chaos thanks for the message! (First time, apparently!) Yes, it was good fun doing; and a dead good read too, if bizarre minuscule is a favoured genre (not that it even is a genre, but). I'd like to have taken it further—I've collected a shed load of respectable reviews, etc in the years since, but I suspect that'll be the point when it gets stripped of anything fun :) if you know what I mean. It's a shame though, cos the book deserves to be promoted in anti-G11/NOTPROMO way. I hope you're well! I had a look for the Paper article you were after, but they don't even seem to have an archive of their own? Let alone anywhere else. Did you have any joy? SerialNumber54129 17:11, 16 September 2024 (UTC)
- I'm well, hope you are also :) Shame about the Paper article, but it's so common with mid-90s magazines. It's really awful to think of how much cultural output has been lost for lack of digital archiving.
- I do like unusual reading, so I've popped Index on my library list. Can't say you're promoting it if it's all paid for by the king's money, right? I know how you feel wrt that level of "professionalising" kind of stripping the fun out, but I can't imagine it not at least being GA-able without losing the good stuff. (And, you know...I do do GA reviews, should you ever decide to pull the trigger on it.) Cheers! ♠PMC♠ (talk) 23:12, 18 September 2024 (UTC)
About the conclusions reached in my RFC
[edit]May I ask how the summary of the conclusions reached “RfC that is not an RfC”, here.In this discussion,two editors thought this was not RFC. Two editors (including me) thought editorial synthesis of published material implied a new conclusion. I think there is no consensus was reached here for now. I request you to review this discussion and reconsider this procedural close. If final conclusion is still “closing it”, the reason “no consensus was reached” is much acceptable for me.--Kof2102966 (talk) 15:54, 14 September 2024 (UTC)

See: this GA review, GA reviewer demanding copies of printed sources and User page.
You've got your way - I won't take part in the GA process or any discussions about the GA process - so why are you twisting the knife? If you don't have the power to ban me from the GA process like you claim, THEN HOW ON EARTH have you the right to demand that I am not allowed to post on my own user page, or to demand that I "get back to work". What "work" am I allowed to do? Who gets to decide it? Are you trying to drive me off the project - if so you are doing a good job of it. I don't want to continue this discussion, so please don't.Nigel Ish (talk) 14:42, 5 October 2024 (UTC) |

- Although thinking about it, continuing a discussion on someone's talk page is an odd way of 'not wanting to continue' a discussion that Nigel Ish started in by now *checks notes* two other venues, and has now also taken to Users:Kyteto's and Thebiguglyalien's talk pages, ywo completely inoffensive editors who have somehow earned Nigel Ish's ire. Or perhaps not enough people were paying him attention. SerialNumber54129 18:10, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

Waldorf
[edit]Hey, I've just noticed that when you edited the lead photo for Shooting of Stephen Waldorf you uploaded it to Commons but it's a fair use image. Could you re-upload it locally? Just copy and paste this onto the description page (dug up from the deleted file that was used before):
==Summary==
{{Non-free use rationale 2
|Description = Side-by-side composite photograph of David Martin (left) and Stephen Waldorf (right), taken c. 1983. Waldorf was shot by police officers who mistook him for Martin.
|Source = '''Original publication''': media photo, presumably published in print in 1983<br/>
'''Immediate source''': http://westhampsteadlife.com/2016/09/07/they-shot-the-wrong-man/17751
|Date = c. 1983
|Author = Unknown
|Article = Shooting of Stephen Waldorf
|Purpose = for visual identification of the person in question, at the top of their biographical article
|Replaceability = Of the two subjects, neither was a public figure or likely to have been freely photographed prior to the incident for which they are notable. One has been deceased since 1984 and the other is not a public figure or somebody who is likely to be widely photographed. Additionally, the appearance of both subjects in 1983 is important for side-by-side comparison and any free image that may exist or could be created could not represent what these people looked like at the time of the incident for which they are notable.
|Minimality = The image will be used in one article only and will be the only image of these individuals used in that article. The full view of both subjects' faces is necessary for side-by-side comparison, which is the purpose of its use.
|Commercial = The incident took place in 1983 so the image has been publicly available for 40 years at the time of upload. Commercial opportunities are likely to be limited for an image of two people only notable for their involvement in a single incident such a long time ago.
|Other information = The subject of the photograph has been deceased since: 1984
}}
==Licensing==

Then we can arrange deletion of the Commons file and we won't get caught out on TFA day! Thanks, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 14:47, 7 October 2024 (UTC)
Thanks HJ Mitchell, have I done everything now. It is deleted on Commons (although some character called Taivo moaned about it all the same. No pleasing some people!), and I re-upped it locally with that FUR and put it back in the article. Did I miss anything?
Ah the good old days, when we used to work together :D cheers! SerialNumber54129 13:02, 8 October 2024 (UTC)

Administrator Elections: Call for Candidates
[edit]Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates
The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Call for candidates.
Here is the schedule:
- October 8–14 - Candidate sign-up (we are here)
- October 22–24 - Discussion phase
- October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase
Please note the following:
- The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
- Prospective candidates are advised to become familar with the community's expectations of adminstrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
- The process will have a one week call for candidates phase, a one week pause to set up SecurePoll, a three-day period of public discussion, followed by 7 days of no public discussion and a private vote using SecurePoll.
- The outcomes of this process are identical to making requests for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA or administrator elections.
- Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.
Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.
To avoid sending too many messages, this will be the last mass message sent about administrator elections. If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.

Re:talk page comment
[edit]I shouldn’t have to say this, but going to a 3rd-party talk page to post this, referring to a long-dead conflict I had with a different 3rd-party (4th party?) I no longer express any animosity towards, is disruptive. I also should’t have to say that my having business with LB and your having business with LB (which happen to have the same catalyst) does not mean you need to have any business with me. User talk pages are for communicating with their respective users— if you have a problem with me, take it to me directly. Dronebogus (talk) 21:17, 18 October 2024 (UTC)

[edit]I hope that this message finds you well. In one of your entries on a certain Talk page, you alleged that I had engaged in sockpuppetry. I would like to tell you that the admin team had investigated the matter twice and it both vindicated me. For the former instance it was a mis-ban based on the misjudgement of an admin.
Given that such a claim seems very serious in nature, may I humbly ask you to retract your claim and apologise? Steven1991 (talk) 04:54, 20 October 2024 (UTC)
Administrator Elections: Discussion phase
[edit]The discussion phase of the October 2024 administrator elections is officially open. As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:
- October 22–24 - Discussion phase
- October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase
- November 1–? - Scrutineering phase
During October 22–24, we will be in the discussion phase. The candidate subpages will open to questions and comments from everyone, in the same style as a request for adminship. You may discuss the candidates at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Discussion phase.
On October 25, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote tallies cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's tally during the election. The suffrage requirements are different from those at RFA.
Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for an indeterminate amount of time, perhaps a week or two. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose). As this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").
Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation. Happy electing.
