Wikipedia talk:Third opinion

Is this the right location for third opinions? Wikipedia talk:Third opinion#Possible sneaky vandalism from SummerPhDv2.0 regarding Jim.27s Steaks and Dalessandro.27s Steaks? Valoem ^{talk contrib} 02:12, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

@Valoem: Another user closed the discussion you started on the talk page there and provided instructions (posts go on the main page at WP:3O). FYI there's also the Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard as an option you may consider, but you should only choose one of the two forums. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 06:18, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

Chiropractic Biophysics

Can you please userfy this plus the talk page for me. This is notable [1], [2], and many other sources. I would like to see what the condition of the article was in and improve it. Valoem ^{talk contrib} 21:17, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

@Valoem: I'm going to decline this request at this time, because 1) consensus at the AfD discussion was very strong for deletion of the article, which included discussion about WP:MEDRS issues regarding the availability of sources, and 2) the sources you provided above are not sufficient to establish topic notability. Here's summary of the sources you provided above:

• [3] – The article is almost exclusively about issues regarding opioids, and provides no information about chiropractic biophysics itself, other than a mention of it at the end of the article in the author credit. It's also a primary source that is not independent from the overall topic, so it's not usable to establish topic notability. Note at the top of the article, where it states, "SPONSORED CONTENT PROVIDED BY R. TODD SHAVER - DOCTOR OF CHIROPRACTIC , SHAVER CHIROPRACTIC & NATURAL MEDICINE".
• [4] – Does not provide significant coverage about the topic, just passing mentions.

To establish notability, topics require having received significant coverage in independent reliable sources. If you are able to find such coverage, I recommend compiling them and then making a post at Wikipedia:Deletion review regarding the article. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 04:44, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

I am sorry, but any editor acting in good faith should be allowed to retain a copy of the article. This allows me to see what state it was in and improve and rewrite the article. I will obviously go to DRV, this is very unfortunate given we've have pleasant interactions in the past. Valoem ^{talk contrib} 04:51, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

@Valoem: I'm not questioning your motives of faith, so please don't take matters personally. Per the circumstances of the article and deletion discussion, I am not comfortable bucking consensus to userfy the article in Wikipedia user namespace at this time. If you'd like, I can email you copies of the content you requested above. If you choose this option, and then improve the content to satisfy notability requirements, I seriously suggest submitting the article to Articles for creation, where the content can be reviewed. An easy way to do this when you're ready is to place {{Userspace draft}} atop the draft page and then select the "Submit your draft for review" link. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 05:07, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Sorry, I did not mean to make it sound personal. I understand that there is nothing to work on and better to start from scratch its one of the problems with Wikipedia not allowing non-admins to view deleted content. Also its perfect fine to decline if the content falls under A11, or copyright vio, I thought the article was sourced, it was not made clear the content was not workable, apologies for the misunderstanding.

• @Anna Frodesiak: My initial reaction is probably not. There's Category:Meat, which is a subcategory of Category:Animal products, which seems to pretty much cover it. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 00:00, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Testaroli

The article Testaroli you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Testaroli for things which need to be addressed.

Replaceable fair use File:Lean finely textured beef in its finished form.png

Thanks for uploading File:Lean finely textured beef in its finished form.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 11:41, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Food and Drink

Just wanted to say thank you for the invite to Food and Drink, again. I'm not very active (I've only created 3 articles there, although I really enjoyed creating all 3, especially Pastrami on rye, but I've saved a few from G13 or AfD), but I think as time goes on I'll be more active there. There's just so much work that needs to be done in the early film area, sometimes I get overwhelmed. Anyway, got the monthly newsletter and just thought I'd take the time to say thank you again. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 00:57, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

• @Onel5969: Thanks, and thanks for creating the Pastrami on rye article. Sometimes it's amazing how one can find a particular topic that does not yet have an article. I have nominated the article to appear as a Main page DYK entry. See: Template:Did you know nominations/Pastrami on rye. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 19:56, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks NA! It's my favorite sandwich, and, as I discovered in researching it, is pretty notable. I have to get more involved in DYK, I've only nominated a half-dozen or so, but I do get involved in enough article expansion, creation or GA edits that I should do more. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 20:01, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Project Accuracy

May I impose and ask you to please consider joining me as a coordinator for WP:Project Accuracy (WPA)? The initial plan is to recruit 3 or 5 WPA coordinators to oversee the project, work collaboratively with the various project teams regarding their GA and FA promotions, and become part of or help with the creation of an editorial review board (or team or committee)? An editor recently suggested a possible name change to "Accredited review" or "Accredited editor". WPA is in its embryonic stages of development, and I am currently in discussions with a WMF staffer who is helping me get things coordinated for a possible grant. ^{Atsme📞📧} 13:07, 29 March 2016 (UTC)

@Atsme: I'll need time to consider this matter. Thanks for the invitation. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 13:15, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, NA1000 - I have a discussion scheduled today with WMF staff to help polish the proposal and iron out the kinks. It would help greatly if I could demonstrate that I had at least 3 quality editors who are supporting it. One of the things I wanted to propose is that part of the grant money would be used for special incentives wherein WPA offers monetary awards to the winning project team for having the most WPA promoted submissions. This is one of the reasons we need 5 to 7 primary project coordinators helping with such details) Example - the winner of the contest is the team (or it could be an individual) who submits the most FAs that receive the RAA gold seal within a certain time frame. Such a contest would encourage more editors to join a project team and further encourage quality output. It would also encourage collaboration and help immensely in achieving the kinds of articles we need. Let's say the Project Med team wins with their submission of 20 FAs that were promoted by WPA with their RAA gold seal (the project team members did the majority of the substantive editing, were involved in the review process, etc). All 20 FAs get promoted to RAA (reviewed and approved). The team gets recognized for winning the contest but in addition to the trophy (badge of some sort) they also receive $xxx or equivalent product the WMF could get donated. After WPA announces which team wins, the winning team determines who receives the $. I would think the recipients would be the active team members who actually registered to be in the contest and did the work which can be confirmed by their edit history for the promoted articles. Just an idea I'm tossing out for some of the incentives the grant could help us achieve. ^{Atsme📞📧} 14:07, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

@Atsme: I can't commit to signing on at this time. However, I haven't disqualified the notion of doing so in the future. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:49, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

MFD relistings

There is no consensus at WT:MFD for admin's to Relist discussions especially indiscriminate relistings without a comment. I have begun reverting your deletionist attempts to get content wrongfully deleted. Close as no consensus as that is now MFD policy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.171.121.19 (talk • contribs) 20:24, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

• You should consider reading WP:RELIST:

The intent of the deletion process is to attempt to determine consensus on whether an article should be deleted. However, if at the end of the initial seven-day period, the discussion has only a few participants (including the nominator), and/or it seems to be lacking arguments based on policy, it may be appropriate for the closer to relist it, to solicit further discussion to determine consensus.

Also, your reading of consensus in the discussions on the talk page is the opposite of the actual consensuses there. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 20:35, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

No response here?

Source removal

Just to go off of that edit summary, I generally remove instances of extra sources such as that when I can, because it makes articles unwieldy when there are ten or so citations after a fact. I would have done it even if I did not vote, but I wanted to clean it up to help the article look a bit more professional. On the other hand, the amount of sources that was there before can often appear to be an attempt to make something appear more notable than it really is, which could influence more people into a delete vote on that discussion. I hope this helps to clarify things, and let me know if you have any further questions. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 16:54, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

AfDs

No, I can entirely say that those Transformers AfDs were not going towards any other result and I myself would've participated but it was clear enough, not to mention because the article had no signs of independent notability. Furthermore, threatening me with ANI is completely unnecessary as my participation at AfD outweighs any "troubles" I am supposedly causing. Furthermore, I know I have not been the only one to close an AfD and not merge the contents as mentioned, after all the contents are always in the history logs anyway. Furthermore, if you're going to mention the "too early", AfD also states that if a consensus is clear enough as it was with Transformers, it may be closed (two or three votes are enough at best and AfDs have been closed as such before). I'm going to be honest, if you and I can't see eye to eye, it may be best for us not to closely encounter each other. SwisterTwister talk 18:48, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

@SwisterTwister: I'm an administrator and perform a great deal of work at AfD, so it would be irresponsible of me to ignore these types of errors that occur. Please don't take it personally. As I explained on your talk page:

• At the deletion guideline page at Wikipedia:Deletion process § Early closure, it states "In general, deletion discussions should remain open for at least seven days (168 hours) to allow interested editors adequate time to participate". Please allow for a full seven days before closing AfD discussions.

• Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Foot selfie and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Android association football games were closed as merge, but the proper templates were not added to the article pages and merge target talk pages. You closed the discussions with a merge result (diff) and a "merge and redirect" result (diff), but then redirected the articles against consensus. There was not enough user input at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cab (Transformers) (link after reverting your closure) and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Checkpoint (Transformers) (link after reverting the close) to warrant early closures for these discussions either, and I feel that your reading of the consensus is not entirely accurate.

• The Administrator instructions for closing with a merge result need to be followed, because these procedures were determined through discussion and consensus. It is entirely unclear why you're against following the proper procedures, and it comes across that your closures may potentially include the interjection of your personal preferences. It's very simple, just follow the proper procedures.

For the early closures, how did you determine a consensus for redirection (diff, diff)? At Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cab (Transformers) the nominator essentially only opines for deletion, one user opines to "Keep or Merge" and one opines to "Merge and Redirect". Note that "Merge and Redirect" means just that, not just to only redirect. After merges occur, the page is then redirected.

It's exactly the same situation at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Checkpoint (Transformers)

I've explained the process for merges before on your talk page before (diff), and you provided no response. After this, you then continued to close discussions as merge without following the Administrator instructions. This is why I mentioned the notion of ANI if my sincere requests continue to be ignored.

Why not just follow the proper procedures? It's in the best interest of the encyclopedia, and the !votes of users that opine for merging should be respected, rather than ignored. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 19:09, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @SwisterTwister: If I may add a note here: I saw this comment above from you about early closure, "it may be closed (two or three votes are enough at best and AfDs have been closed as such before", and I strongly disagree with it. I would never early-close a discussion with just two or three !votes. In fact I think (and Wikipedia instructions state) that discussions should very rarely be closed early. They should stay open for 7 days except for the occasional case of SPEEDY or SNOW. A SNOW close is not 2 or 3 !votes; it is IMO at least 6, policy based, with no dissents - a discussion that has "not a snowball's chance in hell" of any other result. I know you have been participating at AfD for a very long time; please listen to advice from a couple of admins who have also been working at AfD for years. --MelanieN (talk) 20:10, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Relisting at MFD

Just a point but if you relist a page at MFD, you should also add a new timestamp at the top so that the bot will properly re-sort the discussion. That's part of the massive fighting at WT:MFD but it's needed. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:34, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

  • And sorry about the stupidity at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Rico Dinero. Unlike your relistings, for the last months, every time I have relisted an MFD discussion it has been reverted until the guise of being "discriminate and/or without comment" or whatever other demand has been made. I'd rather not revert and block for that kind of antics but the ANI discussions have been flooded with "you're a terrible deletionist for relisting these" so we have the idiocy at WT:MFD and so on. I don't care to engage in that level of nonsense any longer. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 22:52, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
    • @Ricky81682: For what it's worth, relisting is not particularly correlated with deletionism. When discussions receive few or no !votes or do not have significant guideline/policy-based arguments and are relisted in order for a clearer consensus to be determined, sometimes users !vote to retain the content. Conversely, sometimes content is deleted with no input from anyone other than the nominator without a relist being performed. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 22:59, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

I've been here 11 years, I'm well aware there's no relationship. It makes no sense why having more time would have stuff deleted until you believe that the more eyes will cause things to be deleted. I'm pointing out the futility of trying to argue about it at this point. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 23:25, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

• Ricky81682, North America, Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Draft:Rico Dinero appears to have been "kept" on the influence of a !vote from a banned editor. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:13, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Plus it is a banned IP troll that has been hounding Ricky for some time: see discussions here and here and a summary through last December here. I don't understand why Ricky closed on the !vote of his personal troll, who he must be quite familiar with by now - did he not notice who the !vote was from? Clearly, his apology for the troll's "stupidity" here indicates that he thought about the close more than perfunctorily A2soup (talk) 18:24, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Pinging @Ricky81682: to bring the new comment above to their attention. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 18:31, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

I'm aware of who this is. This character has been taking discussion I closed a half decade ago to DRV. However, if I revert or argue that their nonsense is nonsense, I've been chewed out for being biased because this character is attacking me (no, the irony of calling it uncivil to remove an uncivil comment from a banned user is not surprising to me). Welcome to the reason why no one ever wants to sign up for RFA, you get ripped to shreds for trying to deal with your own trolls following you around. Nevertheless, I reversed the closure and relisted the discussion. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 21:37, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 10

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Organic chocolate, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cacao. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Tech News: 2016-15

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Recent changes

• The visual editor can generate wikicode with image options in your language. Examples of image options are "thumb" or "left". You can ask to change to options in your language in Phabricator. [7][8]
• Wiktionaries and Wikisources can now use the visual editor. It is an opt-in beta feature. It still needs development to work better with these projects. [9][10]
• ORES is using new models. Tools that use ORES' predictions can behave strangely. ORES also has a new API. [11]
• The visual editor now supports classical Greek characters. [12]

Problems

• There was a bug when you used keyboard arrows in templates in the visual editor. This has now been fixed. [13]

Changes this week

• The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 12 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 13 April. It will be on all wikis from 14 April (calendar).
• The wikipedia.org portal will get many small bug fixes and improvements. Most will be for the search box and suggested results that were added in March. [14]

Meetings

• You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 12 April at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.
• You can join the next meeting with the Architecture committee. The topics this week are improving transclusion of templates for Parsoid and balanced templates. The meeting will be on 13 April at 21:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes

• Wikimedia has a new backup data center in Dallas. Because of planned work on this, you will be able to read but not edit the wikis for a short period of time on both 19 April and 21 April. This will start at 14:00 UTC and last for 15 to 30 minutes. [15]

Closure of appeal

Hi, I appealed for a removal of a ban imposed on me, here at Wikipedia:Administrator's noticeboard/Incidents#Appeal for removal of ban. Since the discussions are archived after 36 hours, I am unsure and hence want to know when this will be closed. I am primarily concerned because I apprehend that it might be archived before coming to a result. Please help me out. Thanks. RRD13 দেবজ্যোতি (talk) 17:48, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

N.b. @Royroydeb: As you've likely already noticed, the discussion was closed in your favor. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 19:48, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

P.S. @Royroydeb: For future reference, to postpone pages from being archived, you can add {{Do not archive until}} and the {{bump}} template to denote the delay created. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 03:56, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for your work on chocolate!

Thank you for helping to improve articles related to superfood nutrition, especially chocolate. Raw chocolate is a true superfood, and organic chocolate is a phenomenon worthy of recognition. David Wolfe is a pioneer in this market. Wikipedia should be impartial about alternative topics worthy of recognition.

Thanks again!! Glacier2009 (talk) 04:12, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

@Glacier2009: I didn't really perform that much, but thanks. Something I like about Dark chocolate is that it has a significant amount of antioxidants. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 04:02, 9 April 2016 (UTC)

Jamie Masada

Sorry, I had no idea about the copyright infringement (didn't know anybody had copyright on it). Again, sorry.Miep2 (talk) 04:45, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

@Miep2: In addition to the information I left on your talk page, check out Wikipedia:Plagiarism. Thanks, North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 04:46, 8 April 2016 (UTC)

Again, I'm sorry and it is removed (didn't know I'd written something that was based on plagiarism) Miep2 (talk) 19:46, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
Thank you for working to keep the Jamie Masada-article published! However, on your recent shuffling with the pictures, I have a few objections... that 'the original Laugh Factory...' picture makes a nice 'article-picture', and the 'Marquee'-picture is supposed to be illustrative (is that a word?) of the Thanksgiving and Christmas meals. Oh, and while you're busy anyway, could you do your 'Wikipedia-link' magic to this link http://www.hadassahmagazine.org/2006/06/11/profile-jamie-masada/ and add it to the 'Further reading'-section? Thanks so much Miep2 (talk) 22:20, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

@Miep2: I formatted and added the source you provided above to the article (diff), and moved the image. I didn't read the text in the marquee when I initially moved the image. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 22:28, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

You're forgiven, and thanks a lot for the magic link ;) Miep2 (talk) 22:33, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Um... how about if I tried to put you on the trail of my Laugh_Factory article (cuz The Banner put such a ghastly box there too)? Miep2 (talk) 22:46, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

User talk:Holly at FireText

Hi. I see you have blocked this user for having an unacceptable username. But at WP:ISU it says "However, usernames are acceptable if they contain a company or group name but are clearly intended to denote an individual person, such as "Mark at WidgetsUSA", "Jack Smith at the XY Foundation", "WidgetFan87", etc.", so I don't see why "Holly at FireText" is problematic.

AfD help

Hi. Hate to bug you. I went to nominate an article, Childress Vineyards for deletion, with the following summary: "Other than the fact of it being owned by a celebrity sportsperson, article has been cited for lack of sources since 2013. Searches turned up a number of hits, but all in the trivial mention category, for the most part, or in the local paper (which doesn't satisfy WP:CORPDEPTH. I was actually surprised, as I was going to add citations, at the dearth of available references."

When I clicked submit, the tag on the article appeared, but the article's entry at AfD did not. I would simply have reverted, and attempted it again, but was unsure if by so doing it would screw something up. Thanks in advance.Onel5969 ^{TT me} 18:34, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

This popped at WP:BADAFD - I'll sort it out, using the rationale above. UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 20:23, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

 Done. UltraExactZZ ^Said ~ Did 20:26, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for that, Ultraexactzz. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 20:31, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

@Onel5969 and Ultraexactzz: Wow, I didn't even have to do anything. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 20:49, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Girl in cake

I noticed that you are one of the leading editors at List of cakes. Do you know if we have an article or content in a section of another article for the type of giant cake from which a model pops out for festive occasions (e. g. this video)? I understand that these are sometimes made largely or entirely of cardboard and frosting, but sometimes there is a real cake outside of the hidden compartment. I have tried surprise cake, pop cake and popup cake.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:39, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

• @TonyTheTiger: I also saw your post at WT:FOOD. After some searches, it does not appear that an article exists for this. It"s mentioned in some articles ([16]), and here's an instance of a male jumping out of a cake, but that appears to be it. Sounds like you have found a new article to create. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 20:59, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
  • Do you know what the article name should be?--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:14, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
    • I'd probably go with Surprise cake. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 21:16, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
      • Staticshakedown suggested pop out cake, which generates google search images for the subject at hand, while surprise cake does not. I am going with pop out cake. Thanks for the encouragement.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 22:11, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Disregard the warning. That previous person was an imposter

Hi, Early you received a post about being warned and possibly being blocked. That was an imposter who created a similar username, but with only 1 “p” at User:Winterystepe. He's now blocked. im just letting you know that Im the real person and I won't do that. Shoutout to Tassedethe for taking quick action in 6 minutes. Happy Editing Winterysteppe (talk) 00:36, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Northamerica1000, I apologize for moaning ... but do you honestly feel all of the messages at Talk:Clarawood are of relevence to the article in hand?,
Bar the DRV They're all just "moans" about being reverted and in general are "moans" about the editor reverting....., Maybe I'm assuming Bad Faith here but I honestly can't see the point in having it all there when in reality it belongs on the users talkpage?,
Thanks, –Davey2010^Talk 01:20, 15 April 2016 (UTC)

@Davey2010: I collapsed the content on the talk page. Let me know if that works for you or not. Oh, and I don't mind your moaning, it's better than groaning. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 22:57, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
