WP:Hornbook -- a new WP:Law task force for the J.D. curriculum
[edit]Hi Phileasson,
I'm asking Wikipedians who are interested in United States legal articles to take a look at WP:Hornbook, the new "JD curriculum task force".
Our mission is to assimilate into Wikipedia all the insights of an American law school education, by reducing hornbooks to footnotes.
- Each casebook will have a subpage.
- Over the course of a semester, each subpage will shift its focus to track the unfolding curriculum(s) for classes using that casebook around the country.
- It will also feature an extensive, hyperlinked "index" or "outline" to that casebook, pointing to pages, headers, or {{anchors}} in Wikipedia (example).
- Individual law schools can freely adapt our casebook outlines to the idiosyncratic curriculum devised by each individual professor.
- I'm encouraging law students around the country to create local chapters of the club I'm starting at my own law school, "Student WP:Hornbook Editors". Using WP:Hornbook as our headquarters, we're hoping to create a study group so inclusive that nobody will dare not join.
What you can do now:
- 1. Add WP:Hornbook to your watchlist, {{User Hornbook}} to your userpage, and ~~~~ to Wikipedia:Hornbook/participants.
- 2. If you're a law student,
- Email http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:Hornbook to your classmates, and tell them to do the same.
- Contact me directly via talk page or email about coordinating a chapter of "Student WP:Hornbook Editors" at your own school.
- (You don't have to start the club, or even be involved in it; just help direct me to someone who might.)
- 3. Introduce yourself to me. Law editors on Wikipedia are a scarce commodity. Do knock on my talk page if there's an article you'd like help on.

Speedy Deletion of article
[edit]![]() |
WikiEditor |
Hi Phileasson. I created yesterday a page for the company I work for called " Richard Heath and Associates, Inc." and the page was tagged for speedy deletion (and it is already gone) due to G13 and G11.
I read both G13 and G11 and I do not believe that it was copyright infringement, and also I do not believe that it was marketing, but rather just telling what the company does. Indeed, I copied some of the informational stuff from the company website, but it was not copyrighted. A bunch of us from the office were planning to use the wikipedia description of the company on our facebook pages, but I did not know that it was going to be deleted. Is it possible that you could clarify why it was considered marketing and why it was considered copyright infringement? I spent a good amount of time working on the page to make it look good, like the Wikipedia articles, and I even researched other articles for companies, like IBM, JetBlue, PG&E to stick to a format that "works" for wikipedia. I am thankful for your feedback, and I hope I can write it in a way that would meet the standards. Thank you in advance for your help. Leoguerra33 Leoguerra33 (talk) 04:08, 14 November 2011 (UTC) |

Getting Wikimedians to the Olympic Games
[edit]Hi. I am part of an effort to get Wikimedians access to the 2016 Summer Olympics as accredited reporters and photographers. Part of this effort includes covering the 2012 Summer Paralympics. Two Wikimedians have credentials to attend these games as reporters through Wikimedia Australia. As English Wikipedia does not allow original reporting, this is largely through Wikinews with a project page found at Wikinews:Paralympic Games. If you are interested in helping to get Wikimedians to the next Summer Olympics,I'd encourage you to assist with Wikinews efforts, and also to work on all language 2012 Summer Paralympic Wikipedia articles before, during and after the Games to demonstrate a track record of success. Thank you. --LauraHale (talk) 04:24, 17 August 2012 (UTC)

Wannée Kookbook

- see talk user Berkh
- Hello Phileasson, Thank you for your explanation. I searched for English articles. In vain. Only recipes and second hand editions. Dutch articles are hard to find to. The article of the Koninklijke Bibliotheek, or the Dutch Library of Congress, is by far the best I could find. Dutch cookbooks are hidden cultural heritage. I hope it is okay now. BTW tags should be more informative. It is not the first time. A picture of the Nieuwe Haagse Kookboek was removed recently because of copyright violations without any explanation in the tag. Finally it proved to be that the authors of the book were not 75 years years dead already. These kind of puzzles out of laziness costs unneccessary time and frustration.

Just a note. A nudge to say, hey! Sup? I declined your hoax CSD applied to the above noted article. This article is a clear attack on a living person. These types of articles raise a red flag when they are allowed to slip by new page patrollers.

Hoax
[edit]Just wondering, what makes you think Rildi lumi is a hoax? Uberaccount (talk) 21:31, 26 March 2013 (UTC)
- Dear Uberaccount, I was trying to find at least a little information about that guy. The Wikipedia entry of his club FK Shkëndija does not mention his name, a google search returned no results, while the club's homepage is under construction, and he is exactly as tall as the original editor User:Klaudio hoxha K.A.H (OK, that might be coincidental). I'm not sure if it's really a hoax, but I couldn't find anything to prove his existence either. Even if he was existing, he does fail WP:NFOOTY (the table describes him as a under-17 player...). I refrained from adding another PROD since the BLPPROD is already there and will most likely result in the article's deletion. Best regards, --Phileasson (talk) 14:32, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

Warning templates - escalation of
[edit]Hi, you templated Sawantvaibhav23 three times in four minutes. Whilst the first one was justified, the other two were not, because the user had not made any edits after the first warning (see WP:UW#Introduction "The user must be given a chance to see, and react to, each warning given."). --Redrose64 (talk) 16:25, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
- Dear Redrose64, thanks for that advice! I warned the user because of separate violations. To be completely honest, I was not aware of the guideline you mentioned and had a slightly different understanding of the warnings system so far. But it absolutely makes sense. To avoid any confusion I have removed the two later warnings from the user's talk page, citing the reasons in the edit summary. Best regards, --Phileasson (talk) 19:34, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
Ramona Pagel
[edit]You left a tag on the top of this article, but the tag provide no description of what is wrong. Worse yet, you went to the Talk page, but still didn't say anything. Another editor just used a phrase that describes this activity, which I will start employing. This is tag spam. All a tag is, is you, a single individual, complaining about the article. If there is a problem, rather than spamming and defacing the article with a tag, fix it. If you don't want to or can't fix it, then at least have the courtesy to explain what your complaint is. Otherwise, your unfocused complaining, your defacing the article, is just vandalism. Trackinfo (talk) 22:23, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
- Dear Trackinfo, thank you very much for your comment! Maybe I should clarify a few things: 1. Of course, I did place the "citation style"-tag on the article intentionally and, in my opinion, for a good reason. If you take a close look at the references section of the article, you'll see that the first reference uses a quite appropriate inline citation format, the second and third plain URL, and the others are mere external links with no inline citation (although such might be useful). 2. The alternative to this tag would have been to place two tags for "more footnotes" and "linkrot". I always prefer to use as few tags as possible to avoid distraction for the reader. 3. The tag is, again in my opinion, quite self-explanatory. It's a rather short article and the problems meant by the tag are quite obvious once you take a look at the references-section. That's why I didn't see, and still don't see, the necessity to explain anything further on the talk page. 4. I went to the talk page to assess the article, and several others, for the WikiProject Olympics, of which you are a fellow member.
- I hope, you will accept that I do respectfully disagree with your opinion that placing the 'citation style'-tag on that article constitutes 'tag spam'. Furthermore, while I certainly not take your criticism personally, I could imagine that some other editors would. I would highly welcome if you could use a kind of different wording in such cases and especially try to avoid the term vandalism if possible. Best regards, --Phileasson (talk) 23:09, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) @Trackinfo: Whilst Phileasson was typing that, I've had a look at Ramona Pagel; and I'd like to clarify the comments above with some links. Of the six refs, three are general refs; two are bare URLs; and one is formatted using
{{cite web}}
. I consider that inconsistency to be an unclear citation style. --Redrose64 (talk) 23:13, 13 February 2014 (UTC)- You are obviously not the first editor I have run into this. I addressed this situation long ago in my user page User:Trackinfo#Link rot, continue onto Tagging. In this case you didn't even specify Link rot, you just left an even more generic complaint. Its obvious I'm not inclined to waste my time to run reflnks on an article, just for the pure useless satisfaction of perfectly formatting a source. A properly directed bare URL can take any user to the source of the information, the formatting provides NO additional direction or information. Fine, if you think that hidden wikiformatting is necessary for the source, you can push the reflinks button yourself. You didn't. You took the time to edit the article, but your edit, actually your two edits, served no purpose other than to deface the article and to deface the credibility of wikipedia in general. The public doesn't see the differences in the formatting of a source, they just see the source of the information. They DO see your tag as the first thing in the article. They think there is a problem here. There is no problem other than your opinion (and obviously that of a few other high level wiki editors) that the sources are not ideally formatted. So really, your edits are not any more productive than the idiots who edit "poo" into articles. Trackinfo (talk) 00:08, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

Invitation to the African Destubathon
[edit]Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:14, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
New deal for page patrollers
[edit]Hi Phileasson,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
