Thank you for spotting what looked like a contradiction. I have found and added a citation for the hall having been founded in 1851, a few years before my first estimate. I can’t find one for when Charsley took on the title of Master, but clearly it came later, after the university statute that’s mentioned. I guess the original foundation may have been simply when Charsley set up his household or began to take in undergraduates. Sources are hard to find.

Thanks so much for linking some of the professors at Titles of Distinction awarded by the University of Oxford; it's a tedious process. Don't be afraid to redlink as well – pretty much all of them meet our notability guidelines at WP:PROF, so redlinks help to get them created.

@Noswall59:Hi, I see you started the Titles of Distinction article. Would it be useful to add some advice and encouragement on linking to the talk page? Do you prefer leaving initials in links or changing to first names? I have checked the 1996 names and found links for exactly half (unfortunately 2 are in German without an English version). I haven't done any redlinks at this stage, I would need to revise disambiguation first.TSventon (talk) 08:53, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-10-01T08:53:00.000Z","author":"TSventon","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-TSventon-2018-10-01T08:53:00.000Z-Noswall59-2018-09-30T18:37:00.000Z","replies":["c-Noswall59-2018-10-01T09:08:00.000Z-TSventon-2018-10-01T08:53:00.000Z"]}}-->

It might be useful to add some guidance on the talk page, yes. I've just added a few redlinks – it actually wasn't as hard as it seems, probably because many of the scientists are cited by their initials anyway. It's great that there were articles for half, that's more than I had expected. As for linking, I tend to believe that we should not deviate from the original source, simply because doing so could introduce errors; so, I would leave the text of the list with initials for now. That would probably not be acceptable if you ever wanted to get it to Featured List status, but it's probably best practice for now. The links, however, should use the name that the person was most likely to be known as (see under WP:TITLE). For instance: I.J.R. Aitchison. Full names could also be used, I suppose, because they would redirect to whatever the article title is anyway.

@Noswall59:I started linking to Titles of Distinction awarded by the University of Oxford because I had found the names mentioned in other articles. I then linked 1996 to see how many names would link. Oddly there are 154 names on the list not 162 as mentioned in the lead. I would like to translate "David Michael Metcalf" the German article for D. M. Metcalf as an exercise. Should I call the new article "David Michael Metcalf" for consistency? Also, I could reformat 2012 with initials if that would be useful: it is currently a mixture of names and initials.TSventon (talk) 11:10, 2 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-10-02T11:10:00.000Z","author":"TSventon","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-TSventon-2018-10-02T11:10:00.000Z-Noswall59-2018-10-01T09:08:00.000Z","replies":["c-Noswall59-2018-10-02T19:18:00.000Z-TSventon-2018-10-02T11:10:00.000Z"]}}-->

There's no harm using his full name – someone can change it if it's a problem. I've just checked the full 1996 list, and there are only 154 professors named, perhaps that was an error on their part: strange. I might keep plodding on with the 1996 list; googling the redlinks reveals an awful lot of clearly notable people, with obituaries in national newspapers, etc. Anyway, thanks again. —Noswall59 (talk) 19:18, 2 October 2018 (UTC).[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-10-02T19:18:00.000Z","author":"Noswall59","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Noswall59-2018-10-02T19:18:00.000Z-TSventon-2018-10-02T11:10:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

@Brenig102: Hello, thank you for responding to my message. I removed two sentences which were not supported by references. The first said “St John’s College has its origins in St Bernard’s College”. This was not supported by the reference which says the college “took over the premises of St Bernard’s College”. The second sentence said “other colleges such as Hertford erroneously use the foundation of previous institutions to be their foundation year”, which was not supported by a reference.

I also bore in mind the Wikipedia guidance on synthesis , which says that if material from multiple sources is combined to imply a conclusion, then that conclusion should be supported by a reliable source.

I agree that additional information about St Bernard's College is useful so I have now added the foundation date and reference to the article.TSventon (talk) 09:43, 13 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-01-13T09:43:00.000Z","author":"TSventon","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-TSventon-2019-01-13T09:43:00.000Z-Brenig102-2019-01-12T12:24:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Cheers matie. Yep, so for example John Horley or Hornley (1448-1457) should be John Horley or Hornley (1448–1457), that's to say an endash not a hyphen. You probably know how to generate an endash on your keyboard – on mine it's alt+hyphen. Or you can use the html code –. Or it's the first of the line of special characters immediately below your editing window. But that whole section of MoS is really useful: when to use a spaced endash, when an unspaced, the use of emdash. Not a hyphen to be seen!

Aristotle comes into the New College article already because of the motto.

Hi

My original source was a 40 year old memory of studying Beowulf as an undergrad, but I came across something more relevant to others. There is a second Beowulf page, where this origin is discussed:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beowulf_(hero)

That page also connects him to the Hrolf Kraki character. I'll have to get back up to speed on Wikipedia syntax. It has been a while.

I hope you will be able to add some referenced information on Beowulf as bee wolf: I did a quick internet search which suggested it would be better to describe it as a conjecture.

If a copyvio is blatant then you don't need to list it at WP:CP, you can just remove it yourself. WP:CP is mainly for more complex cases e.g. where the source isn't known, it's not clear which bits are copyvio, the licensing status of the content isn't clear or where the author claims to have permission. If you want to request revision deletion then you can use {{copyvio-revdel}} as long as it's clearly a copyvio.

Hi, I'm not sure whether you meant to remove the 'public research university' field, as it was mixed with some IP edits.

Hi, I assume this is my edit of 08:32, 11 July 2019‎: I edit the article fairly frequently and don't remember the detail of all the unconstructive edits I revert. I reversed an IP edit which I thought was unconstructive because it removed content and added the phrase public research university. User:Jonathan A Jones had previously deleted the word public at 12:38, 6 February 2019 with the edit summary "delete "public": the division of universities into "public" and "private" is unclear and rarely helpful in the UK". I now see that Wikipedia consistently describes non-private UK universities as public universities, but I am not aware of reliable UK sources which do so.

The majority of UK universities, and certainly Oxford and Cambridge, are not "public" universities in the sense the word is understood in continental Europe or the US, and I do think this description for Oxford is confusing. But given the current contents of the United Kingdom section of Public University, which is pretty heavily laced with caveats, I no longer actively remove this description from the page.

@KnudW: You have placed a Template:COI on the article: could you start a discussion on the article talk page? The template guidance says "Like the other neutrality-related tags, if you place this tag, you should promptly start a discussion on the article's talk page to explain what is non-neutral about the article. If you do not start this discussion, then any editor is justified in removing the tag without warning. Be careful not to violate the policy against WP:OUTING users who have not publicly self-disclosed their identities on the English Wikipedia." If you have evidence of conflict of interest (which I don't) you could post on Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard. My Danish is fairly basic, so I am not well placed to judge if the company is notable or not. The draft has been submitted for review via articles for creation which has a backlog of around 8 weeks.

@The Retiree: Hi, I moved your question on 17 January to a new section called "Neutrality" and it got two answers, but I think the problem was that it was automatically archived after two days. Sorry if that was confusing, but at least you knew who to ask (or blame). The section is now archived at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions/Archive_1045#Neutrality.

Hi, yes it was only a "maybe" for the purposes of that conversation. But in all seriousness the Lower Rhine Germanic peoples had Celtic tribal and personal names at the time when Caesar first encountered them. One question is whether we consider those to be the ancestors of the Franks, but generally they are discussed that way. A lot of what has been written about this was not published in English, but for example:

• von Petrikovits, Harald (1999), "Germani Cisrhenani", in Beck, H.; Geuenich, D.; Steuer, H. (eds.), Germanenprobleme in heutiger Sicht, Walter de Gruyter, ISBN 978-3110164381 {{citation}}: Invalid |ref=harv (help)

The main point I would make about all this is that actually scholars now admit more clearly that we know very little, and we can eliminate few options. I don't have anything handy, but it is also interesting to read the varying assessments about when high, low and north sea west germanic split up, and how different they were likely to have been in late antiquity.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 11:38, 11 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-06-11T11:38:00.000Z","author":"Andrew Lancaster","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Andrew_Lancaster-2020-06-11T11:38:00.000Z-Answer_to_your_question_about_ancestors_of_the_Franks","replies":["c-TSventon-2020-06-12T13:07:00.000Z-Andrew_Lancaster-2020-06-11T11:38:00.000Z"]}}-->

I agree. Makes it tough on us sometimes. What makes it tougher is that the 19th and 20th century was a period where you could make a career from basically just making up a story that sounded about right.

@RS Qmile: Hi, thanks for your patience with the requested edit system. I am not very knowledgeable about development articles, so I would prefer not to update them.

I do not understand your opposition to my speedy renamings. All those categories are about Catholic canon law and not about any other canon law, e.g. the Canon law of the Anglican Communion, which is the main reason why they should be renamed.

Hi TSventon. You recently made an edit where you removed "Alumni of University of Oxford" and "Alumni of University of Oxford by College| Hertford College", but kept "Alumni of Hertford College, Oxford".

Hi Dr. Universe, I edited Nike Dattani because members of "Alumni of X College, Oxford" don't need to be in "Alumni of University of Oxford" or "Alumni of University of Oxford by College" as well. Category:Alumni of the University of Oxford has messages saying "This category is for alumni of the University of Oxford, grouped by college." and "Pages in this category should be moved to subcategories where applicable. This category may require frequent maintenance to avoid becoming too large. It should directly contain very few, if any, pages and should mainly contain subcategories." Category:Alumni of the University of Oxford by college just contains college subcategories. I hope that makes sense.

Uziel302, I am curious how many apparent errors you picked up and how many days there were between this and your last report, as that would give an estimate of how manyb typos are added in a day. I have cleared page 20 and most seem to be genuine typos. One oddity, there were four cases of "splited->splitt" (rather than split) in Old revision of Correct_typos_in_one_click/20.

I port the script from C to python and made some changes manually so it doesn't surprise me that there are some changes, I am surprised most of the output is good... The previous list focused on capital letters and that was hard to work on because most of the words were legit names. The previous lowercase list was done by Oct 25. The switch to python allows me to run the script on toolforge without downloading the whole wikipedia dump to my computer, and I hope I will be able to run it every month.

Cases like this are the reason the words should be checked manually...

Hi TSventon, I just got your message about Martyn Percy. As it turns out, when I looked at my contributions, I actually did revert an edit to the page. The edit got caught in one of the filters I had on (‘may be bad faith’) and I thought it was blanking. Since I don’t normally look at the article talk pages, I had no idea it was part of a discussion. Sorry if I caused any inconvenience.

HelenDegenerate, you correctly indentified an edit as unexplained content removal and quite appropriately reversed it on 2 April. The edit was redone with an edit summary, still on 2 April, and a talk page discussion about it was started on 4 April.

I probably should have checked your edit history before pinging you and realised that your edit was vandalism related rather than because you were interested in the specific article. I think you could have checked the history of the article to see if that was why I messaged you, but that is not a major issue.

(Continued from Wikipedia:Help desk#Redlink to Heathrow Airport in order to not clutter that page too much)
Honestly, if you're a complete novice WRT browser dev tools, I wouldn't recommend you try doing it this way. It'd probably be faster for you to edit the page, re-type the string in question, and use "View changes" or the diff to find out what changed, then just google those characters if you want to know what they are (or search them here; Wikipedia has redirects for a bunch of them). Also, there are probably better tools for this kind of thing – for instance, I wouldn't be surprised if WP:AWB were able to detect invisible characters and characters from different writing systems sprinkled where they probably don't belong, though I've never used it myself. Also also, it's not a very good idea to paste code a stranger on the internet wrote into your browser console unless you understand what it does or trust the person who wrote it (then again, user scripts pose the same theoretical risk, and everybody still uses them without looking at them, including myself).

All that said, if you do want to do it this hard, overcomplicated, probably slower unless you're used to working with the dev console, way, here's how:

1. Open your browser's developer tools. In most browsers, press Ctrl+⇧ Shift+I (⌘ Command+⌥ Option+I on Mac). If that doesn't work, you can try looking for them in your browser's menu or just google how to do it in your particular browser. If your browser is very out of date (i.e. Internet Explorer), this might not work for you. If your browser's reasonably up to date, it should.
2. Go to the "Console" tab in the dev tools. Disregard the error messages you will almost certainly find there, many websites, including Wikipedia, just spit out a bunch of those while working completely fine.
3. Paste in the following code:

   console.log(``.split("").map(c => `"${c}": U+${c.codePointAt().toString(16).toUpperCase()}`).join("\n"))
   

   I've modified it a bit so the results are more readable and it's less error-prone.
4. Paste the offending text between the first set of backticks (`, right in front of .split). The result should look something like this:

   console.log(`abс`.split("").map(c => `"${c}": U+${c.codePointAt().toString(16).toUpperCase()}`).join("\n"))
   

   If the text contains backticks itself (which is unlikely), you have to escape them by putting a backslash in front of them (except of course the main surrounding ones between which you pasted your text).
5. Press ↵ Enter.
6. You should now see a list of all the characters in your string along with their code points at the bottom of the console, like this:

   "a": U+61
   "b": U+62
   "с": U+441

   Left of the colon, enclosed in double quotes, are the characters, right of the colon are the code points in hexadecimal notation. All of the English Latin letters and all of the normal punctuation will have double-digit code points, while non-Latin characters will always have three or more digits (you'll notice this is the case here – that's because the third letter is a Cyrillic Es). I don't think there's a way to get the names of the characters from JavaScript, unfortunately. From here, just look for the characters with suspiciously high code points and search for the characters or their code points here or on Google (or Bing if you're so inclined, I guess).

If I haven't yet managed to scare you off with my ramblings and how complicated this actually is if you've never done something like it before, happy editing. If I have: I'm considering making a user script that would make it possible to do this in a much more user-friendly way – unless of course somebody smarter than me has already made something of the sort. If I do do that, I'll try to remember to notify you. – Rummskartoffel 22:02, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-06-26T22:02:00.000Z","author":"Rummskartoffel","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Rummskartoffel-2021-06-26T22:02:00.000Z-Checking_for_unwanted_characters_using_the_browser_console","replies":["c-TSventon-2021-06-26T22:36:00.000Z-Rummskartoffel-2021-06-26T22:02:00.000Z","c-TSventon-20230126120200-Rummskartoffel-2021-06-26T22:02:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Rummskartoffel:, thank you for taking time to explain. That works in Chrome, but is probably too complicated for me to use regularly.

@TSventon: Ah id= Indonesia! Regarding cross-wiki promotion, I have come across this kind of thing two or three times. The last one I remember was someone pushing a Russian painter. It's quite common in the arts that individual artists develop massive egos and think they need to get the word out on their work globally. In the culture business self-promotion is also part of the business by nature. Regarding the outcome, the stewards will lock all those accounts shortly, across multiple wikis. The Prix Versailles pages on en and fr look to be headed for deletion, but the discussions are still in progress. Some wikis will take action while others can't be bothered or do not have the staff. This kind of cross-wiki manipulation really bothers many editors, and when the bothered editor is an admin or checkuser, you will see results!

On 15 August 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Royal Dental Hospital, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Royal Dental Hospital opened the first dental school in Britain in 1859? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Royal Dental Hospital. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Royal Dental Hospital), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page.

Bringing in @Deb: here, as an admin. Welcoming a Wikipedian to the Wikipedia community, even though he had edited continuously since 2015 seems rather odd. On the experienced editor's Talk page, your contribution included 'As you get started, you may find this short tutorial helpful: Learn more about editing.' The fact that you then started pushing him into discussions on the Welsh Not article at the same time, makes your action very sinister. 4 days later after your welcoming message, the user said: I'm done, my contribution to the discussion has ended, if you resurrect it, please note that it will push me over the edge. Please read WP:HUSH carefully.

Take care please!

As I said, @Hogyncymru: is an experienced editor, who edited the article in question since at least 2020. I have two questions to you: 1. What bought you to this article on the 16th August? 2. Do you know User:DeFacto and User Cheezypeaz in any way? All three of you are working together on the article, and your edits seem to me to be orchestrated, or is it just coincidental that all 3 of you landed on this article in August 2020, and have done more than 55% of the article's edits between you in just a few weeks?

Thank you @Deb:. Helo Llywelyn2000, I think you should WP:AGF until you have heard my side of the story.

• I came to Welsh Not on 14 August and made two minor posts after seeing the AN thread Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive335#User Cheezypeaz is vandalising the page; 'Welsh Not'.
• I don’t know User:DeFacto and User:Cheezypeaz in any way so I don’t know how they got involved.
• I posted a Welcome message on Hogyncymru’s talk page on 15 August for the reasons I explained there. With around a thousand edits at the time they seemed fairly new to me. I was using the page for communication not harassment.
• I would be happy to discuss any of my edits on the article talk page. From the edit summaries, I think most of my edits to the article should be uncontroversial.

I hope that relieves your concerns. I don’t think I have done anything wrong, but obviously I regret that Hogyncymru found the discussion on Welsh Not "mentally draining".

Llywelyn2000,Deb,TSventon Hi, wow interesting conversation. First things first. I came over here to ask TSventon if they would be offended if I compressed the table they added to Treachery of the Blue Books (I assume the detail here is to provide an audit trail, but I don't think that's necessary and it's reducing the readability). Also the description states the data in the table so that's a duplication that can be removed.

So just to clear up any other points...

• I don't know anyone on here.
• I came to the Welsh Not page because someone referenced it on another platform and I saw how awful it was.
• Checking the history of that page I saw how the history had slowly morphed and X became Y.
• I did some reading, tried to edit the page but my edits were reverted.
• I got into an edit war detailed here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Cheezypeaz#August_2021_2
• Later a dispute (nothing to do with me, although I did express a preference as to naming after it had become a dispute) spilled over from Treachery of the Blue Books to Welsh Not.
• Then I realised that the reading I had been doing for Welsh Not was more applicable to Treachery of the Blue Books.
• I am absolutely committed to historical accuracy. Events that actually happened (given their due level of certainty), the relevant context and importance.
• I'm happy to answer any reasonable questions & please do feel free to challenge my edits.

Bishonen, thank you, we will see what happens next. DGR16 seems to have been fully focused on Martyn Percy since they created the article in 2008, but they did use their talk page a few years ago.

Hi @Bishonen: and TSventon, I noticed another user Kr0s2005 has appeared and re-added similar edits as DGR16 , L30KJQWQeHZR and the IP 129.67.123.22 I traced this IP further and it originates at Christ Church Oxford specifically. I reverted the changes. It seems the Martyn Percy page is subject to edit warring and this is another block evasion. Odd that the IP is Christ Church though... could it possibly be Percy himself editing, given the unsourced nature and apparent COI? apologies for any errors, I'm new to editing!

Bit of a grey area, that. Cy doesn't have nearly as many written policies (or guidelines) as en, but neither do we have any divergent policies as far as I recall. It's a very different place because it has so few editors and so little activity by comparison. In that I don't think it is very different from other minority language Wikipedias. I can't recall us ever having a problem with socks because as a rule there are very few arguments; discussions rarely get heated. Vandals are nearly always non-Welsh speakers and there's a zero tolerance policy towards those. So basically there is no advantage for anyone in socking, or none that I can see. If I saw evidence of anyone doing it, I would immediately discourage them, even in the absence of a written policy, but I've never seen anything to suggest that anyone was.

Deb, thank you for an interesting explanation. I expected that the policy would either be unnecessary or covered in a more general policy. Are there accepted Welsh terms for sockpuppet and sockpuppetry? My previous visit to the SPI page involved sixteen languages and Google translate did not always produce consistent, let alone correct, results. TSventon (talk) 08:56, 8 October 2021

I don't know of a term. I think part of the problem here is that the concept hasn't really been recognised (let alone "meatpuppet"). "Sockpuppet" is really a US term anyway, and one I've never heard outside Wikipedia; in the UK we'd say "glove puppet". So maybe the literal translation of that - "pyped maneg" - would work.

Deb, thanks again, presumably sockpuppetry is a major issue on en Wikipedia because it is a high profile website with deliberately low barriers to editorship. I would say that "glove puppet" is more common in UK English for the device, but "sockpuppet" for the online phenomenon. I would expect Welsh language policy wonks to invent words for technical terms, but perhaps sockpuppet (and wonk) are just too obscure.

Hi TSventon. What I did was get Google to translate the document, and then copypasted the results into my sandbox. Then, take the sandbox's url and plug that into Earwig's tool as the source document. While I use my own sandbox and perform revision deletion after reverting back to a blank page, Moneytrees has a special sandbox for editors/patrollers to use for this purpose. It's located at User:Moneytrees/dummy. You can also use the same technique for English-language webpages that Earwig's tool can't access, or segments of a long pdf that's too big for Earwig to handle. — Diannaa (talk) 22:55, 14 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-02-14T22:55:00.000Z","author":"Diannaa","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Diannaa-2022-02-14T22:55:00.000Z-Using_Earwig's_tool_for_otherwise_inaccessible_documents","replies":["c-TSventon-2022-02-14T23:15:00.000Z-Diannaa-2022-02-14T22:55:00.000Z"]}}-->

Diannaa a related problem is that the Lithuanian sources I checked take a strongly pro-Lithuanian point of view of the politics of the interwar Klaipeda Region and that POV was then copied into the Wikipedia article.

This article seems to me so biassed that it ought not to have been featured on the main page.

Moonraker, this was my first controversial article review, how would you have dealt with it as a reviewer?

Dear Sir, the archives from St Anne's College, Oxford outline that at 77 Banbury Road (which housed Wychwood School in 1900-1902) there lived Miss Gertrude Middleton - an Oxford Home Students member from 1900-1902. The headmistress/owner of Wychwood School - Miss Lee - lived at Wychwood at this time and tutored Oxford Home Students a few years after this time (i.e after 1902).

Hi OK872, it's an interesting article, so I am happy to help. I don't have time to review it myself, but that should happen within a month or so, based on the current list of unapproved DYKs. I would advise checking Wikipedia every few days until it is reviewed as the eventual reviewer is likely to ask some questions. Do you have a watchlist (see Help:Watchlist) as that can help you see changes to pages you are interested in. For example there is a response at Wikipedia:Peer review/Subneolithic/archive1. Also, should Neolithic#Europe and Neolithic Europe mention Subneolithic?

Yep, just checked it out! I had a brief look at the articles but because some Subneolithic cultures coexisted with the Neolithic I’m not sure that it would feed in well anywhere, in a linear/timeline sense. I’ll have a closure look though and see if it can be integrated seamlessly at some point in the articles :) OK872 (talk) 14:23, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-05-22T14:23:00.000Z","author":"OK872","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-OK872-2022-05-22T14:23:00.000Z-TSventon-2022-05-22T07:29:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, Lucjan Pajdzik made calculations for the most accurate sundial in the world - he writes it in sources - Polish newspapers. People from all over Europe come to this sundial. Lucjan Pajdzik is a very modest man who graduated with honors from all his studies and was the first in the world to receive the European Mineralological Union - EMU Poster Prizes (2007). It is also described in 2 printed Britishpedia in the entry Dominiak Henryk Jan, which can be read in reputable libraries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krzysiek2224 (talk • contribs) 08:22, 28 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-05-28T08:22:00.000Z","author":"Krzysiek2224","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Krzysiek2224-2022-05-28T08:22:00.000Z-Lucjan_Pajdzik","replies":["c-TSventon-2022-05-28T08:48:00.000Z-Krzysiek2224-2022-05-28T08:22:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi Krzysiek2224, Generally Wikipedia expects that the subject of an article should have received significant coverage in multiple published secondary sources that are reliable, intellectually independent of each other, and independent of the subject. There is more detail in the policy Wikipedia:Notability (people), which is linked in the notice at the top of Lucjan Pajdzik's article.

hi. I am Polish. I read a lot and I'm glad that there is a man like Lucjan Pajdzik, who graduated from Oxford with honors and works in England as a scientist and has awards there, which I presented in the article and indicated links to them in England and Poland. He is an outstanding young man - only very modest. I, too, could not find any descriptions about Lucian Pajdzik in this template, but there are a lot of links on the Internet and I have included a lot of links.

Hello! I proposed a few updates on the talk page for Jim Johnsen, Talk:Jim_Johnsen#Proposals For James Johnsen Article, the former president of University of Alaska, addressing balance and neutral point of view issues, as well as poorly sourced edits made by a singular editor. Are you able to take a look at the proposals? I have a personal connection to Dr. Johnsen and I don’t want to violate Wikipedia’s conflict of interest policies.

In [2], you changed stoicheometry to stoicheiometry, but isn't the spelling stoichiometry? I can't find a ref that uses the "e" form anywhere. Same applies to a handful of other edits you made at about the same time (buggy tool, or bad tool data?).

DMacks thank you, I will look into this shortly, at the moment I think it was bad tool data.

DMacks, I was going through possible typos at Wikipedia:Correct typos in one click/20&oldid=1111321383. I don't know anything about stoichiometry, but the corrections suggested looked reasonable.

Neodymium phosphide stoichimetric->stoichiometric, which is OK

Cinnamycin stoicheometry->stoicheiometry, which appears to be wrong as the source refers to stoichiometry ^[1]

Nitronium perchlorate stoicheometrically->stoicheiometrically, which I can't check as the source is a dead link

An internet search suggests that stoicheiometry is an alternative spelling of stoichiometry, but I don't know why the tool would prefer stoicheiometry but stoichiometric. I have changed the two spellings with ei as i seems to be more usual.

On reflection, I think the tool probably stores both stoicheiometry and stoichiometry and chooses whichever is closer to the existing spelling of the word in the article.

Hello, just dropping by to give my thanks for your reply in Wikipedia Helpdesk. It makes perfect sense now. I too had some doubts like those statements being a "blurb" but couldn't find any policy to support that. ✠ Rejoy2003 ✠ (contact) 13:09, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221117130900","author":"Rejoy2003","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Rejoy2003-20221117130900-Thanks_for_your_reply","replies":["c-TSventon-20221117135200-Rejoy2003-20221117130900"],"displayName":"\u2720 Rejoy2003 \u2720"}}-->

Rejoy2003, generally when evaluating a source you should think about the requirements of Wikipedia:Reliable sources, i.e. is it a reliable, published source and does it give a Wikipedia:Neutral point of view. In the case of the text on Google books, I didn't think it was a reliable source for the subject being a "popular panelist". Guidance on blurbs is probably mostly on talk pages rather than in formal policy, for example I found an older Helpdesk discussion at Wikipedia:Help desk/Archives/2009 July 5#book blurb as reference?.

Ye the reliability of reliable sources do play an important role here but not that I wasn't aware of it. I wasn't much sure about the blurbs since I never faced such a thing before. But it's good that I have it all settled now. ✠ Rejoy2003 ✠ (contact) 18:30, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221117183000","author":"Rejoy2003","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Rejoy2003-20221117183000-TSventon-20221117135200","replies":[],"displayName":"\u2720 Rejoy2003 \u2720"}}-->
