Thank you for, I hope you are enjoying editing on Wikipedia. When you move/rename articles, please be mindful of double redirects or navboxes at the bottom of articles. The navboxes will need to be updated too with the new link for the article, so that the article appears in bold in the navbox when on the article page. I've updated a few navboxes, but I'm sure there are more.

And while we're discussing redirects, linking directly to one is acceptable in the run of articles. See WP:NOTBROKEN for additional details.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Editors are expected to treat each other with respect and civility. On this encyclopedia project, editors assume good faith while interacting with other editors, which you did not appear to do at List of the 100 largest municipalities in Canada by population. Here is Wikipedia's welcome page, and it is hoped that you will assume the good faith of other editors and continue to help us improve Wikipedia! Thank you very much! It's rose gold!

• @RoseGold1250: I certainly would assume that good faith motivated your revert; however, I believe it is in error. The deleted tables do not belong in an article named List of the 100 largest municipalities in Canada by population, a list should be a list.

Please note that if you want to propose a merger of Laverlochère and Angliers into Laverlochère-Angliers, the process isn't just "template the pages and walk away" — you also need to post a section to Talk:Laverlochère-Angliers to explain why you're proposing the merger, so that there's something for people to discuss. If you don't do that, then the only thing that will happen is that the templates will eventually be removed from the pages as unactionable due to lack of discussion.

• @Bearcat: Canadian cities and towns' articles are usually named after the municipal government's name; since these are two small towns which recently merged and are not notable enough for separate articles, the merge seems pretty uncontroversial.

Explaining it to me here isn't the point. The process requires there to be a merger proposal posted to the talk page of the target article for discussion, and the merger will simply never happen at all if you don't post a proposal to the talk page of the target article, because that's how the merger process works. If you don't, the only thing that will ever happen is the templates getting removed from the articles without action, because no proposal was posted to the talk page of the target article for anybody to take any action on.

my reply here covers why the page move was correct by me -- As for assuming good faith, you're going out of your way to have an article with an incorrect title on Wikipedia, doing so in a deceptive way going behind my back to a Sysop board too. No post on the article talk page questioning the move, no post on my talk page questioning the move, just straight to technical boards looking for a Sysop or a rollbacker to revert without even giving me a chance to have a say or defend myself. So yeah, I won't be taking advice on assuming good faith from yourself, when clearly it was not something that you saw fit to assume of me.

Hi 162 etc.

When I do page moves I generally follow WP:Be bold. I think nobody wins if every page move goes through the full discussion process. Occasionally I come across users who have a strong feeling about article names. I am happy happy to go through a discussion in these cases. I guess you are mainly concerned about Joe Hall rather than Robert McIntyre and Roger Cardinal.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited International Table Hockey Federation, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Table hockey. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

At Talk:Nur-Sultan#Requested move 9 October 2021 you asked what was going on. This is all to do with a requested move at Talk:Allahabad#Requested move 20 September 2021. TrangaBellam was the editor who performed closure on the move. Tecumseh*1301 is an editor who favoured moving the article on Allahabad to another name. In his/her arguments for such a move, Tecumseh*1301 repeatedly said that the position was similar to Astana being moved to Nur-Sultan (which happened on 4 May 2019‎). Having not got the result he/she wanted at Allahabad, Tecumseh*1301 did two things: (1) he/she asked for a move review, and (2) has proposed that the article on Nur-Sultan be moved back to Astana, making much the same arguments for the move as were made to oppose the move from Allahabad to another name.

A tag has been placed on Joseph Park requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

• disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
• disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
• is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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 deleted 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.

Hello, 162 etc.,

I de-PROD'd this article because you failed to inform the page creator, who is still an active editor, about this deletion tagging. If you use Twinkle, an editing tool, any time you tag a page for any type of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/TFD/etc.), Twinkle will post these talk page notifications for you once you set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator". These notifications are one step of the deletion process that can't be skipped over plus it is just common courtesy, especially with a PROD because it is possible for an editor to address concerns raised in the PROD deletion rationale. If you decide to nominate this page for deletion at AFD, please remember to notify the page creator.

Twinkle will also provide an appropriate edit summary for you. Any time you PROD an article or file, you should state this in the edit summary so that, if the page gets de-PROD'd, other editors can know it has already been PROD'd before. Thank you.

I have undone your undiscussed page move of Bonnie Lee Bakley to Killing of Bonnie Lee Bakley on the grounds that WP:BIO1E does not apply, and even if it did, there is a caveat that allows for a separate biography. My full explanation is on the talk page. However, one consequence of a page move like this is that a biography needs to be rewritten as a crime this is going to be controversial if the article is a long standing or full fledged biography that covers the person's life. In this case, the move should have been discussed, first. I distinguish this from similar moves about the same time to articles about Abraham Grünbaum, Milan Pantić and Jennifer Servo because in those articles there is minimal biographical content prior to death. However, in the case of Jennifer Servo I would have recommended discussing that move, too, because a previous notability discussion indicated WP:BIO1E did not apply, although this is not clear from the article. I hope this assist you in deciding how best to approach page moves in the future. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 00:39, 21 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-01-21T00:39:00.000Z","author":"Cameron Dewe","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Cameron_Dewe-2022-01-21T00:39:00.000Z-Not_discussing_page_move_of_Bonnie_Lee_Bakley","replies":["c-162_etc.-2022-01-21T00:44:00.000Z-Cameron_Dewe-2022-01-21T00:39:00.000Z"]}}-->

  • True, that is why I chose to discuss the issue, too. However, you might want to also consider WP:TITLECHANGES in the future, (which I spotted today), this piece of advice indicates changing the title of an article is likely to be a controversial one after an article ceases to be a stub or has been stable for a long time. There are times to Be Bold, though one should also take care when ignoring any rules. In other words: If it ain't broke, don't fix it, neither arbitrarily, nor just to follow a pattern; but do it to improve Wikipedia. Anyway, this little exercise proved useful as it informed me about everything I needed to consider when changing article titles, today, in the Parkinson case. Thank you for your inadvertent help!

@162 etc.: Yes, I agree with you that adding Somaliland to the title would be unnecessary. However, it appears both Hudun and Xudun are disambiguation pages so either way it would be required. Either that or one of the disambiguation pages would need to be deleted, which seems more controversial. I believe this is the reason the page was moved in 2012 from Xudun to Xudun, Somalia. Back then the region was under Puntland control and most towns were labeled as such. However now all this areas have been under Somalilands control and other articles have been debated and amended to reflect that. As for the spelling, Hudun is the English spelling and Xudun is the Somali spelling. The vast majority of the cities and towns in the region use the English spelling in the title, so it makes sense to keep that consistent throughout.

Hello, I noticed that you may have recently made edits to PMA while logged out. Wikipedia's policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow the use of both an account and an IP address by the same person in the same setting and doing so may result in your account being blocked from editing. Additionally, making edits while logged out reveals your IP address, which may allow others to determine your location and identity. If this was not your intention, please remember to log in when editing. Thank you. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 16:43, 7 March 2022 (UTC**

That's not the point, labeling perfectly fine edits as improper when an editor has chosen to redirect instead of going the overly-bureaucratic route isn't actually improper. No one said anything about an RM. Redirects are perfectly fine per WP:BOLD and there was nothing sourced or neutral to merge anywhere and I had no intention of starting an RM, so I haven't got a single clue what you're talking about as there is no move involved. Where exactly did you get the idea that I was starting an RM, especially considering I can't recall ever once even starting an RM? Oh and lastly, deleting it is useless when the second book is notable so it stands to reason that a redirect would be perfectly useful.

None of the info there is fan-based as you claim. I suggest you take this to the admins and get consensus on how to mend those "rules" as ST47ProxyBot is preventing me from demonstrating a perceived "fansite" article here on WP. I felt that the text in the "Overly detailed" template (as you feel that it's a bad etiquette from me.) meant that the section is for promotion. for the sources, they are there. But as I'm under series upon series of I.P. address blocks by the bot for that, you may/will think otherwise. I've complained to others on similar instances and grounds and they've understood. It ain't your fault or mine that per WP:GNG, you should see non-"fansite" info without proof per WP:v. I see that you've brought it back, so I'll work on them and remove it again later. I thought WP is more than just education and "all-seriousness".

Hi 162 etc., I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help).

Hi, thanks for reaching out. It's impossible to summarize somebody's entire life in one word - yet that's what we have to do when picking disambiguation tags :)

I moved the article because "Japanese host" is overly detailed (there is no Roland (host) article) and "entertainer" is a standard form recommended by WP:SINGERDAB. Of course, he is also involved in business, but I wouldn't say that "businessman" is more accurate.

For example, Drake (musician) is also a successful businessman (OVO Sound) and worked as an actor (Degrassi: The Next Generation), but he is best known as a musician, so we narrow it down to that. 162 etc. (talk) 15:25, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20220921152500","author":"162 etc.","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-162_etc.-20220921152500-Londonbeat41692-20220921005000","replies":[]}}-->

Hello 162 etc.,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Bing Bong for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly indicate why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Hello, 162 etc,

If you expect to do more Proposed deletion tagging, a couple of things to put in mind. First, like making a nomination at AFD, you need to provide a deletion rationale for why this article or file should be deleted. Just writing "[[WP:N]]" isn't sufficient. Write at least one complete sentence to justify why this article merits deletion, just posting a code to a policy guidelines is not an explanation. Speedy deletion allows you to tag pages for deletion with just a reference to a criteria for speedy deletion but PRODs and AFDs require editors to make an argument why a page should be deleted. It doesn't need to be long, but it has to be more than [[WP:N]].

Second, you need to leave a descriptive edit summaries. PRODs can be de-PRODed. If, years later, another editor decides to PROD the article again, they need to be able to see that it has already been PROD'd once and the way they can see this is by looking at the edit summaries in the page history. This is made more difficult if you don't leave any edit summary at all! So, just write, "Proposing article for PROD" or even just "PROD" in your edit summary when you tag a page for Proposed deletion.

Finally, these processes are made easier if you start using Twinkle to tag pages for deletion or to tag them for other reasons. Twinkle is an editing tool most page patrollers and a lot of administrators use. For example, once you set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator", then Twinkle will post a deletion notice on the page creator's talk page for you. It will also leave a descriptive edit summary so you don't need to type one out. It remembers all of the codes and templates so you don't have to searching for the right one to use. It will maintain deletion logs for you. You can report vandals to noticeboards using Twinkle. It is very handy and I encourage you to try it out if you aren't already using it.

Just a few comments. Thank you for all of the work you are doing on the project! Liz ^{Read!

If you want to see some example of typical PROD deletion rationales offered by other editors, look over the list of upcoming Proposed deletions at User:DumbBOT/ProdSummary and you can see what I'm referring to.

A tag has been placed on Weezy (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

• disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
• disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
• is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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 deleted 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.

When you tag an article for a Proposed Deletion, please write a more substantial deletion rationale than just WP:N. By that I mean, write at least one full sentence that shows you actually examined the sources or looked for additional sources to improve the article.

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved, as you did to Andover railway station, without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. I have added this to the requested moves page, so this will be reverted soon.

It appears that you have been canvassing—leaving messages on a biased choice at Talk:Anthony Jennings to notify them of an ongoing community decision, debate, or vote—in order to influence Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anthony Jennings (American football). While friendly notices are allowed, they should be limited and nonpartisan in distribution and should reflect a neutral point of view. Please do not post notices which are indiscriminately cross-posted, which espouse a certain point of view or side of a debate, or which are selectively sent only to those who are believed to hold the same opinion as you. Remember to respect Wikipedia's principle of consensus-building by allowing decisions to reflect the prevailing opinion among the community at large.

Hi there. Thank you for striking the comment, but leaving the text where it is still visible and readable did not solve the problem of a non-neutral notification. It needed to be removed completely to follow policy at WP:CANVASSING. I therefore redacted your non-neutral comment entirely from the page, and left the neutral part of the notice. This is what should have done by you earlier. In the future, if a similar situation crops up you can not make any sort of evaluation or provide any sort of opinion on the discussion or its consensus when placing a notice. That is canvassing.

Sigh, I thought I was being helpful in moving it to a resolution, but clearly we are not there. I am just going to just let this go, rather than needlessly create drama for you at ANI. We both have better ways to spend our day. However, I think you are being unreasonable, unfair, rude, and breaking the spirit of our policies.

You have claimed MOS:DABORDER states "Blue links should be at the top", but nowhere does it state this (please quote what you mean), and the entry on IIII being for Roman numerals also has a blue article to link to. You have been the only Wikipedia editor to claim an album is the primary topic for a Roman numeral. IIII redirected there for years without any issue—that makes it the primary topic. If you cannot handle the primary entry on IIII being for where the page redirected for years, I will revert your converting of the article to being a dab page and it can be put to a discussion whether it should even be a dab page or not. The fact you think an album takes precedence over how many centuries of IV being written as IIII is honestly ridiculous. The fact that the two or three other moves you requested the other day (that I performed) were reverted because there was already a move discussion months ago that you'd seemingly ignored should tell you your opinions on disambiguation clearly don't match other editors' and I think you need to reconsider what you request.

I tend to agree and would support restoring the original redirect. That's not something that should be changed w/o discussion and consensus. I'm fine with a DAB existing.

Hi 162 etc. Following the blank and redirect at Underwater ice hockey and the ensuing discussion at the talk page and reversion, I feel that for due diligence I must ask whether you have done other blank and redirects described in edit summaries as bold merges, without an actual merge, and if so, whether you can justify them in terms of policy or community accepted guidance.

I am familiar with the Special:Contributions page. I was hoping for a more cooperative response, which could have had this issue sorted out without wasting too much time, but you are not obliged to do that. I see from a search of your last 500 contributions that this was not an isolated incident.

Do you understand why "Bold merge" is not an acceptable edit summary for a "blank and redirect" edit, in which you do not merge any of the content into the target article, and there was in at least one case not even any mention of the redirected term in the target article?

Hello! :) Thanks so much for putting up the not to be confused message on the Cazale article. I am, however, struggling to find sources which suggest that those are two separate cities. I thought that it's just the same city and different spellings... do you know of any sources I could cite to help clear up this confusion?

Hello, 162 etc.,

Please use Twinkle when you are tagging pages for any kind of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/CFD/etc.). I'm looking at some articles you PROD'd and there are two problems: a) there is no edit summary explaining that you are tagging the article for a Proposed Deletion and b) you didn't post a notification on the talk page for the article creator. The latter is an important step in all deletion processes. I'm sure that if you worked on creating and developing an article, that you would want to know if the article was headed towards deletion. This is especially important with PRODs because any editor can address the issues brought up in the deletion rationale and remove the PROD tag.

Twinkle does so many things, you can use it to tag an article regarding problems, report vandals to noticeboards, welcome an editor, add a warning notice to a problematic editor, set up an AFD discussion, it basically remembers all of the templates you might need so that you don't have to. I think if you try it out, like most page patrollers and many admins, you won't know how you edited the project without it. But please set your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator" and then when you tag an article for deletion, Twinkle will post a notice on the talk page of the page creator on your behalf.

It would also help if you provide a fuller reason for deleting an article than just "WP:N", maybe a few sentences explaining why you believe an article should be deleted. Thank you for considering this request. Liz ^{Read!

Hi, thank you for your contributions. User:Jeremyeyork has on two occasions added Category:Novels by Stephen King to articles on books authored under the Bachman pseudonym, which I've reverted back to the stable version. These works are already categorized under Category:Novels by Richard Bachman, a subcategory of Category:Novels by Stephen King, and therefore the addition of the latter category is redundant. 162 etc. (talk) 17:57, 1 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230801175700","author":"162 etc.","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-162_etc.-20230801175700-Sundayclose-20230801123600","replies":["c-Sundayclose-20230801184700-162_etc.-20230801175700"]}}-->

I suggest that when you rename an article to a WP:PDAB title, you should make sure the article has a hatnote to address the resulting ambiguity, like the one I just added to Scarlet (song). —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 19:51, 11 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230811195100","author":"BarrelProof","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-BarrelProof-20230811195100-Hatnotes","replies":["c-162_etc.-20230811195600-BarrelProof-20230811195100"]}}-->

Hi, @162 etc.!

I see that you twice moved the dab Like the Wind (song) from pointing a more specific target to pointing to a disambiguation page (a "dab"). You also completely deleted both the entire redirect shell, and the two categorisations. I hope all this was due to misunderstanding.

In general, we avoid redirs to dabs, when there are more specific targets. As you can see, the dab you twice choose as target, Like the Wind, does contain a reference to the song as one of its entries, by referring to the article Belgium in the Eurovision Song Contest 1999. In such situations, we usually let the redir point to the more precise target, not the dab. (Actually, redirecting to a dab is deprecated, as is by the software; you can read the warnings that the software added to your edit comments for both your edits in the history.)

As you perhaps knows, we also have a bunch of specific templates used for redirs. You find them in the Category:Redirect templates and its subcategories. In general, a redir should contain at least one of these templates; often several. If there are more than one, a template shell should be used. For some reason (quite possibly by a simple oversight), you completely removed the whole shell, with its four specific redir attributes, when you changed the target. You can compare the information on the original version with the way you left it.

Finally, one of the attributes you removed was the Template:R with possibilities. At some time in the future, hopefully, someone with enough knowledge, interest, and time, will restore the article, but as a full article rather than a stub. Until then, at least, it should be possible to find the scant information we now provide about the subject by means of the relevant categories. (And, yes, categorising redirs with potentials very often is a good idea.)

Since I guess most of the trouble was due just to some oversights, I shall revert your last edit. If you disagree, you may change the target again - but, please, if you do, think over any further changes you want to make; do not remove content you have not decided ought to be removed!

Hi, Like the Wind (song) was listed as an ambiguous redirect at WP:PDAB, which is why I retargeted it. I'll instead move to Like the Wind (Vanessa Chinitor song), in order to keep the categorizations. 162 etc. (talk) 04:35, 4 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231204043500","author":"162 etc.","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-162_etc.-20231204043500-JoergenB-20231204042500","replies":["c-JoergenB-20231204050200-162_etc.-20231204043500"]}}-->

This is a much better solution! However, you might also consider some broken links, which I fear will be changed to the wrong target if you leave it to a robot; and the Wikidata item, which takes care of the links to other language versions (and more; but this time I fixed that item, d:Q3271724).

Likewise, the link from the file listed here now is wrong. (In general, if you move a page and leaves a link from the old name to the new one, most pages will still link to the intended; sometimes by a double redir, but a bot may take care of that eventually. However, if you do not leave any link at all from the old name, or, as in your case, immediately changes the target from the old name page, then things can get a bit confused. Thus, checking the "What links here" option may be a good idea.)

You could make that argument at an RM.

I was notified of this revert. I think it is contrary to MOS:DABPIPE: "Apart from the exceptions listed below, piping and redirects should generally not be used on disambiguation pages." See also its examples for "Switch" and "Ten", which do not start the list entry with the link. Also please note WP:DABSTYLE's efn statement saying "Communicating the actual titles of entries at variance with the base title one might expect—were the entries not ambiguous with each other—is integral to the purpose of a DAB page." In this case, the redirect is covering up the fact that the linked article is on a different (broader scope) subject. This is all moot if toy boy (slang) is agreed to be the primary topic for the term (see the RM at Talk:Toy boy#Requested move 18 December 2023), but in that case the opening sentence of the DAB page would be phrased differently. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 20:48, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20231220204800","author":"BarrelProof","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-BarrelProof-20231220204800-Revert_to_use_of_redirect_on_a_DAB_page","replies":["c-162_etc.-20231220233300-BarrelProof-20231220204800"]}}-->

Reading a bit further down in the MOS section you referenced here, you'll notice the example with Eon (geology) which illustrates a usage which I think also applies in the case of Toy boy (slang). It's not a super big deal though, and as you say, there is a good chance that the slang term is the primary topic anyway and this is moot.

Hi again,

could I trouble you to take a look at this situation?

• Odisea (album)
• Odisea
• Odisseia

I daresay the mildly notable album makes a better primary than the current one, but I dunno what, if anything, should be done with the other two. They're about the same thing, give or take, are stubs, more or less, and are unsourced. They do have hundreds of incoming links, which based on a couple of spot checks is mostly because they appear in various TV-channel navboxes.

A split tag is not allowed to just sit on an article for three years without being resolved, especially when one of the key reasons it's never been resolved is that nobody ever initiated any discussion about it in the first place — meaning that nothing ever happened precisely because there was no discussion for anybody to act on, and nothing is ever going to happen given that editors don't revisit old outdated tags like that.

It's not a tag that people can just slap on a page and walk away from and leave there forever. It's a tag that requires discussion, and it's a tag that requires resolution within a defined period of time and cannot just sit there for years.

So if you really "support" a split, then you need to do two things: actually initiate the required discussion on the talk page so that there's something for people to discuss, and change the date on the template to May 2024 so that it's current. But nobody ever initiated any discussion, so the tag cannot just stay on the article forever if nobody's ever discussed it.

I think you went just a little overboard with redirecting Fender amps. Some of those might be combined (ie: reverb and non-reverb units) but most of those have been around long enough that printed press has covered them enough to pass WP:N. Redirect the Princeton? That is just one example but an obvious one. I've reverted most of them back. I'm not against trimming it up a bit, but if there has been decent coverage, the topic is better covered with separate articles rather than trying to merge them into a giant article, as they all have a long and detailed history. They need more sources, granted, but if you know amps, you know they exist, even if in libraries rather than online.

@Dennis Brown:Hi, thank you for your contributions. "Decent coverage" is indeed a core Wikipedia criterion - as WP:N says, "if no reliable, independent sources can be found on a topic, then it should not have a separate article." These amplifier articles, while in some cases well-written, did not appear to have sufficient secondary source coverage. At the very least, they should be {{more sources needed}} tagged, with the unreferenced content within deleted, per WP:PROVEIT. Note that some articles in this category, such as Fender Deluxe, were left as-is, since they seemed to have some evidence of reliable source coverage.

"Reliable" is also something I should touch on here. Not all sources are good ones; see WP:SOURCES. Blogs, etc. are not a source we should be basing an encyclopedia around. You mention that "printed press has covered them"; if that is the case, please be WP:BOLD and add relevant citations to the article. 162 etc. (talk) 16:39, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240519163900","author":"162 etc.","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-162_etc.-20240519163900-Dennis_Brown-20240519072400","replies":["c-Dennis_Brown-20240520001900-162_etc.-20240519163900"]}}-->

• Maybe WP:V would be a good read. Verify doesn't require that everything is fully sourced, only that it is reasonable that it can be, which is the case here for most of those. WP:No deadline might also be worth a read. We don't redirect articles that actually have a good chance to be fleshed out and sourced better, we improve them. I'm not sure how familiar you are with these topics (suffice it to say, I'm quite competent with this subject), but changing all these to redirects was sloppy and not supported in policy when they can be sourced. Nothing personal, but I've been here since 2006 with extensive contributions. I really don't need someone quoting me the most basic policies, particularly when they are reading them wrong.

  WP:VERIFY states that "All material in Wikipedia mainspace (...) must be verifiable (...) any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, must include an inline citation to a reliable source that directly supports the material." Your assertion that "Verify doesn't require that everything is fully sourced" appears to me quite the opposite of what the policy actually says.

  The articles in question have either no sources, or contain an unacceptable amount of unverifiable information, the removal of which would reduce the article itself to stub status. Note that per WP:NODEADLINE, "we can afford (...) to wait before creating a new article until its significance is unambiguously established."

  So, in a nutshell, either it's properly sourced, or it has to go. The burden to demonstrate verifiability lies with the editor who adds or restores material.

Hi 162 etc.,

 You should have checked some dictionaries before reverting my good faith edit, A throughway is "n.amer. (also esp. US thruway) an expressway" (The Canadian Oxford Dictinary (1998). Chambers (13th edition) has a similar entry but uses the word "motorway". However, on searching further, I found that the full online Oxford English Dictionary also gives, "A passage or way through; esp. a road or path forming a route between two places; a thoroughfare." Sorry if I offended, but as I noted earlier I didn't recognize the word "throughway". So, are you using British usage for this newly created article? Please fix.

PS I was overly belligerent, for which I apologize, but I felt that there had been poor communication and confusion in the ongoing discussion. I have never been reverted so often, though I'm banned for life by Conservapedia.

The discussion there is heading towards being unhelpful for others.

• WP:RETAIN: "With few exceptions (e.g., when a topic has strong national ties or the change reduces ambiguity), there is no valid reason for changing from one acceptable option to another."
• WP:COMMONNAME: Rally racing is not the common name for all rallying, anywhere in the world. Only a portion of the sport - see Rallying#Speed competitions (in a portion of the world). It's Athletics vs Running.
• WP:ENGVAR: Following the above point, this does not apply because we're not talking elevator vs door, we're talking elevator vs elevator button.

It looks like Rally racing moved to Rallying as the scope expanded. It happened 20 years ago. To me it isn't justified but maybe a split would be a better proposal? However as rallying would remain (somewhere), the notability of, the available sources for, and desire to create Rally racing would be pretty weak I imagine.

Hi, I have no opinion when it comes to a split of the article. I've already expressed my view concerning the title of the current article at Talk:Rallying.

I'm trying to explain my position which isn't being challenged. Your suggestion is as helpful as suggesting the article should move to Cheese. I'm trying to understand your position.

Such an insolent statement certainly should be apologized for. See WP:CIVIL and WP:AGF.

I'm unsure why you've decided to bring this to my talk page, rather than Talk:Rallying, which is where the discussion is taking place. 162 etc. (talk) 21:51, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240625215100","author":"162 etc.","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-162_etc.-20240625215100-Rally_Wonk-20240625212300","replies":["c-Rally_Wonk-20240625225800-162_etc.-20240625215100"]}}-->

I have been civil at all times. I am trying to have a constructive conversation with you as you're not showing an understanding of anything I am typing, nor a will to engage in constructive conversation about a topic which is important to me. Your replies are always on the offence, and once again you have replied with a link to policies rather than anything constructive.

I came to your page because nobody else is struggling with this at Talk:Rallying. I shall now abandon this friendly gesture because I cannot distinguish if you are trolling.

It is permissible, and has always been permissible to draft the proposed new content under the redirect while the discussion is ongoing.

It literally says in the RfD template: "Don't add anything after this line unless you're drafting a disambiguation page or article to replace the redirect".

I will give you the opportunity to restore this yourself.

You removed entry 'vici (Sanskrit, Hindi 'विची'), wave (in mathematics, water, etc., contrasted to avici)'. Since there's avici ('waveless') article there needs to be entry on word it's derived from.

Regarding this edit, it seems that the previous romanization system was declared invalid and a new system replaced it last year.[4] This includes some key changes, for example "г" is romanized as "g" rather than "h" and "ў" is romanized as "w" rather than "ŭ". I also found this news article.

Since we are using BGN/PCGN romanization, this does not really have any effect here, but WP:BELARUSIANNAMES still includes the official instruction on geographical names as something that may be additionally included. Does this need to be updated?

I see that recent edits have been made to Instruction on transliteration of Belarusian geographical names with letters of Latin script, and I don't necessarily agree with them. The 2023 "Transfer of names" rules appear to be a new standard, not an update of the 2000/2007 Instruction, and should be in their own article. It's also unclear what, if any, secondary sources actually use the 2023 rules. 162 etc. (talk) 22:55, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240815225500","author":"162 etc.","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-162_etc.-20240815225500-Mellk-20240815223900","replies":["c-Mellk-20240816074400-162_etc.-20240815225500"]}}-->

Good point, the instruction on transliteration was declared to be no longer valid, rather than updated, so it does not make sense to include the 2023 rules there. I also agree that it is best to wait to see if any sources use this system first before making any changes. Thanks.

Hello Mr. 162! I saw you kept on reverting the NASCAR Cup Series at New Hampshire Motor Speedway to Crayon 301, however it seems like that name will stick as race names change every season. If possible, could I shorten those types to just "at New Hampshire" or "at Dover"? I feel like having the full track name'll make it uncomfortable for the generic reader.

Hello 162! I've noticed that you keep reverting the name change back to "Graz 99ers" while stating secondary sources use the space. It makes more sense to remove the space in the team's name since the ICE Hockey League, the Champions Hockey League, and the team itself spell it this way. If you believe you are correct, feel free to submit it to a higher Wiki moderator.

Take care!

I understand the point you are making and your valid reasoning behind it; however, it does seem a bit odd that you consider it bad etiquette for my edits while I presented an actual reason behind my suggested edit. I appreciate the reasons you have provided, and I will definitely remember that during future edits. I'll leave the page move alone since I see no point in us continually reverting each other's edits. I have no ill will towards you or your actions, but I would like to provide a piece of constructive criticism.

Please provide your valid reasoning during your initial page moves reversions. Doing such will eliminate any confusion with the initial editor and will cease any back-and-forth reversions.

Take care, and I hope you have a great autumn!

Thank you for working to improve Wikipedia.

Regarding your revert to Somebody Save Me (disambiguation): based on the way "Save Me" (Remy Zero song) (the song, not the article) uses the refrain "somebody save me", i thought that line was the title, and i imagine numerous other folks make the same mistake. Maybe enough of us that we should ignore all rules against including partial title matches in disambiguation pages? May i revert your revert?

Wishing you safe, happy, productive editing.

Hi, thanks for your contributions. While I understand your edit's intent, it would be quite impractical to clutter dabpages with every misheard lyric or partial title match.

Hello, 162 etc.,

Could you put some more identifying information on this disambiguation page? Typically, disambiguation pages aren't simply a list of names but have some information about each person, like their birth year, nationality and occupation. There is no way to see on this page what "El Flaco" even refers to much less let a reader understand why this was a term applied to these people without going to each article listed.

You seemed to have erroneously moved the talk page of this article to the disambiguation talk page? I'm not entirely sure what has happened here. The talk page for the main article that was previously there has been deleted, and redirects to the disambiguation for 'Zapp', thusly removing the main article's importance ratings from the R&B and musicians wikigroups.

Hi, it has been suggested that you might not want to reveal the details on your user page. Let me know if you want me to delete the page (and this message). Or if you are happy to continue displaying it, then I for one don't know of a policy-based reason why you're not allowed. But I'd say it's up to you, either way? -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:35, 28 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241128163500","author":"DoubleGrazing","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-DoubleGrazing-20241128163500-Question","replies":["c-Hey_man_im_josh-20241128202100-DoubleGrazing-20241128163500","c-162_etc.-20241129020500-DoubleGrazing-20241128163500"]}}-->

Someone has continued to contribute from that IP for what it's worth, though only about ~300 edits compared to the ~3800 done prior to registration, so it's at least worth considering whether you want to associate yourself with that address still.

Unless there is a policy-based reason, I see no reason to make any change.
