Been a while since we've been in touch! I'm thinking of doing a small article on the West Wales team which often formed a part of the tourists' itinerary in the amateur era, but I can't find a great deal about it. I know from match details in Rothmans books that it was comprised of players from Llanelli, Swansea and other clubs from west Wales (strangely enough!) but there isn't much else out there. The West Wales rugby union has a website but their membership seems to come from clubs lower down the strata and doesn't have anything about a West Wales invitational / representative XV. Have you got any info or thoughts? All the best. --Bcp67 (talk) 18:41, 11 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-12-11T18:41:00.000Z","author":"Bcp67","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Bcp67-2012-12-11T18:41:00.000Z-West_Wales_XV","replies":["c-Bcp67-2012-12-12T20:32:00.000Z-Bcp67-2012-12-11T18:41:00.000Z"]}}-->

Thanks for the reply. Plenty of examples from tours around the 60s, 70s and 80s - they played the All Blacks in 67, 72-73 and 78, the Wallabies in 73, 81-82 and others like Argentina 1976. The 1973 Japan team played Western Counties (Wales). I'm thinking of writing something along the lines of "The West Wales rugby union team was an invitational team which played against teams overseas which were touring Wales" or similar. --Bcp67 (talk) 20:32, 12 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2012-12-12T20:32:00.000Z","author":"Bcp67","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Bcp67-2012-12-12T20:32:00.000Z-Bcp67-2012-12-11T18:41:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

...for the barnstar. Welsh history wasn't previously "my thing" but I stumbled across some redlinks which I thought might be interesting to fill out and they suggested a couple of further articles to me. Would be interested in your view on another article I've been thinking about doing: Conquest of Wales is just a re-direct to Statute of Rhuddlan, which doesn't seem appropriate. I can't find any article which covers Edwardian Conquest of Wales, and while there is Norman invasion of Wales, there isn't an overview article that summarizes that and the Edwardian Conquest. I've been trying to establish if any of these would dupplicate existing articles, and I'm not seeing any. I can't see anything between Wales in the Early Middle Ages and Wales in the Late Middle Ages, other than the Norman Invasion article and History of Gwynedd during the High Middle Ages which might partially cover it. What would you think of new articles Conquest of Wales and Edwardian Conquest of Wales?

On 29 January 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Erich Kettelhut, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that German art designer Erich Kettelhut was tasked with creating a life-size mechanical dragon for Fritz Lang's 1924 movie Die Nibelungen? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Erich Kettelhut. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Looking at the Category:Welsh rugby league players, I realised that any player who played before the 1970s, whose article name ended with the text "(rugby league)", e.g. Frederick Brown (rugby league) will likely have played rugby union before "Going North", yet their articles make no mention of their prior rugby union career, hence their article name. There are 95 articles that meet these criteria, would you know whether these players are detailed in either of Robert Gate's "Gone North" books? Best Regards.

I haven't created a list, but any player article name ending with the text "(rugby league)" on the three pages of Category:Welsh rugby league players, would be worth investigating if their playing era was prior to the 1970s, e.g. Dennis Brown (rugby league), John Cheshire (rugby league), etc. but probably not post 1970s players, e.g. Joe Burke (rugby league), David Clarke (rugby league), etc. For example, of the fourteen players with the surname "Davies" and article names ending with the text "(rugby league)", 8 have pre-1970s careers, and 6 have post 1970s careers.

As part of the investigation into the rugby union careers of pre-1970s Welsh rugby league players, I've found that the Cardiff RFC Season Review 1949 - 1950 webpage mentions a Malcolm Davies playing for the Cardiff Athletic XV, it's about the right era, so could this be Malcolm Davies (rugby league)? Is Cardiff Athletic XV a second team? Also, if you could please take a look at Talk:Sully, Vale of Glamorgan, there's another Malcolm Davies (rugby league) related query. Best Regards.

Hi again, FM. I don't have a Welsh etymology for Tregaron, but always assumed it's based on St Caron, whose church is there.

Hi FruitMonkey, I was thinking that a DYK for Teddy Bartram might be appropriate as according to the Rugby Football Union; "In 1879 came the first definite example of a rugby player being paid, with Teddy Bartram receiving money from Yorkshire club Wakefield Trinity.", making him the first professional rugby player.

Hey. Do you have a RS for the line-ups for the international matches played by 1888–1889 New Zealand Native football team?

Peer review request for Thomas Ellison I'm currently attempting to bring the article Thomas Ellison to Featured Article standard. I've opened a peer review, which can be viewed at Wikipedia:Peer review/Thomas Ellison/archive1—any feedback, however brief, would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

What is your rationale for including the 'Notable people' list? It is unreferenced and has no inclusion criteria.

I have been here over 7 years - the sad thing is that tagging something as unreferenced is noble but very rarely results in improvement. Surely it's much better to remove and start again? Or at least remove some entries (Dixie Dean had a car crash in the area?!) to make it limited to people born / lived long time in the town.

Hey. Wondering if you have any ambitions to bring Arthur Gould (rugby union) up to Featured Article standard?

I have added a todo list to the Arthur Gould talk page. You should add any things you think need to be done to improve the article. I'm wondering if you think the article is comprehensive, and if not what more needs to be added? I was envisaging we try and polish the article, then take to a peer-review.

But seriously though, I believe having a notability criteria of 'Have fought at least n (number yet to de defined) professional fights for a top-tier organisation' would be perfectly acceptable. Unfortunately, the thing about boxing associations/boards/councils/federations/organisations/unions is that there are so many to choose from.

I would define the top-tier as being; IBF, WBA, WBC, and WBO.

and may also include;

• The Ring, TBRB, WPBF, IBC, IBA, IBO, WBU, and IBU.

Subject to further investigation, and article creation, top-tier could also include;

• World Boxing Association affiliates; FEDELATIN, Pan Asian Boxing Association (PABA), North American Boxing Association (NABA)
• World Boxing Council affiliates; North American Boxing Federation (NABF), Oriental and Pacific Boxing Federation (OPBF), European Boxing Union (EBU), Asian Boxing Council (ABCO), African Boxing Union (ABU), Caribbean Boxing Federation (CABOFE), Central American Boxing Federation (FECARBOX), CIS and Slovenian Boxing Bureau (CISBB), South American Boxing Federation (FESUBOX), and Hispanic World Boxing Association (ABMH).
• World Boxing Organization affiliates; North American Boxing Organization (NABO), WBO LATINO (LATINO), WBO Asia-Pacific

And as this is the English language Wikipedia, I see no reason why the national boxing associations/boards/councils/federations/organisations/unions within the Anglosphere should not be considered top-tier, e.g. British Boxing Board of Control, Boxing Union of Ireland, etc. and subject to article creation; Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Nigeria, South Africa, etc.

I'm off on holiday tomorrow for 2-weeks, so I won't be able to help with the redefinition of the Boxing Notability guidelines until I return, and by which time Nat Jacobs and Jimmy Cable will no doubt have been deleted. You may have noticed that my patience is running very fucking thin with Wikipedia, I've made Boxing notability the same as MMA notability, let's see how long that lasts. Best Regards.

I'm currently updating List of Commonwealth Boxing Council Champions, and I feel the Commonwealth Boxing Council really deserves an article of it's own, rather than a redirect to 'List of Commonwealth Boxing Council Champions'. Also, I'm not sure whether you've seen the Notability discussion for my inital notability criteria proposals of …

1. Professional: Have fought a professional fight for a top-tier boxing organisation.
2. Amateur: Have fought in the final of a national amateur championship, or have represented their country in an international tournament.

…but I was thinking of changing the professional criteria to…

1. Professional: Have fought for a national (or higher) professional title for a top-tier boxing organisation.

…while leaving the amateur criteria unchanged. Best Regards.

Hey, in the GA review for 1888–89 New Zealand Native football team, the reviewer has asked why Arthur Gould didn't like the four three-quarter system (see Talk:1888–89 New Zealand Native football team/GA1).

Would be great if you could, but if you can't it's not a problem. – Shudde ^talk 06:32, 15 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-09-15T06:32:00.000Z","author":"Shudde","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Shudde-2013-09-15T06:32:00.000Z-Question_about_Arthur_Gould_in_a_GA_review","replies":["c-Shudde-2013-09-15T08:52:00.000Z-Shudde-2013-09-15T06:32:00.000Z"]}}-->

A fantastic lot of images there - I've started cropping some to add to individual biographies of High Court / Court of Appeal judges where I know who they are (Christopher Pitchford, Nigel Davis, David Lloyd Jones, Wyn Williams, John Griffith Williams so far) and I've added a couple of the "group shots" to general images about judges in E&W. If there are particular images / people you'd like me to try to add to the file captions, let me know and I'll have a go.

Hi FruitMonkey, according to the Aberavon RFC Club → History page… "The back play during this period was of a high standard and in a King George V Jubilee match - between Wales and The Rest - the entire Aberavon back division was selected. It comprised: Tommy Owen James, Arthur Bassett, Randall Lewis, Jack Thomas and Alan Edwards." As far as I'm aware, only Arthur Bassett won caps for Wales, would you know whether the text; "the entire Aberavon back division was selected" means; for this in 1935(?) match they were selected for 'The Rest' and so they were uncapped; or, does it mean that although they were selected for Wales, as this was a non-Test match they were uncapped? Best Regards.

I can't say for sure, but comparing this photograph of an older Arthur Bassett in his Halifax days to the photograph of 'The Rest' featuring Frank Whitcombe, I would say that the younger Arthur Bassett is sat on the floor, on the right, cross-legged. If so, this may mean that the entire Aberavon back division was selected for 'The Rest', and not Wales. As an aside, I'm assuming that 'The Rest' was 'The Rest' of Wales, not Britain, nor the World?

But perhaps not, as this article has the team lists, and has Arthur Bassett in the Wales side. Best Regards.

Hey. I've been pretty busy the last couple of months, but have been planning to get a little more active again. I've had another read through Arthur Gould (rugby union) and I think it's nearly ready for a peer review. I was thinking about giving it a copy-edit and then requesting a peer review – probably sometime this weekend. Are you okay with that? Another couiple of things I've been meaning to mention: is there a ref for footnote b? And is the Lloyd, John Edward; Jenkins, R.T. (1958) referenced in the article, or can it be moved to further reading? Cheers. – Shudde ^talk 11:23, 26 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-11-26T11:23:00.000Z","author":"Shudde","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Shudde-2013-11-26T11:23:00.000Z-Arthur_Gould_(again!)","replies":["c-Shudde-2013-11-30T08:15:00.000Z-Shudde-2013-11-26T11:23:00.000Z"]}}-->

I've opened the peer review at Wikipedia:Peer review/Arthur Gould (rugby union)/archive1. I am going to leave a few messages on people's talk pages asking them to contribute to the review. If you know any people that may be able to provide good feedback, then maybe you could add a quick note asking for their feedback? Often PR's linger without requesting feedback directly. I do have one question: the article states "No accurate records are available until 1886, but from 1887–98 Gould scored 136 tries and dropped 42 goals for Newport" -- the only source I have is [1] which lists his total (over all years). Is there a source you have for that statement? Or should we change it to match the Newport club's site? -- Shudde ^talk 08:15, 30 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-11-30T08:15:00.000Z","author":"Shudde","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Shudde-2013-11-30T08:15:00.000Z-Shudde-2013-11-26T11:23:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hey. A further question. There is a discrepancy in the article regarding the 1885 match against England.

Hey. It was from Oxford Dictionary of National Biography (url) -- but I have access to a login for it. There are a large number of Welsh biographies on that database actually. If there are other existing sources that can be used instead see here, then I'm fine to do that. I was actually going to message you sometime today. The Gould PR looks more or less done. There are a couple of remaining sourcing concerns to need to be fixed, but once that is done I think it's ready for FAC. I'll probably close the Peer Review in the next day or so as long as that is okay with you. -- Shudde ^talk 08:29, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-12T08:29:00.000Z","author":"Shudde","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Shudde-2014-01-12T08:29:00.000Z-Shudde-2014-01-08T11:55:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hello again. I archived the peer review, which I hope is okay by you, and have added a list of remaining things to do to the article's talk page. There are not actually that many, but there are some statements that need to be cited. I was hoping you could help with that? The other things I can deal with. You can see the list at Talk:Arthur Gould (rugby union). – Shudde ^talk 09:55, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-13T09:55:00.000Z","author":"Shudde","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Shudde-2014-01-13T09:55:00.000Z-Arthur_Gould_(again!)","replies":[]}}-->
