On 27 December 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article James Comyn, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a woman once threw a dead cat at James Comyn while he was cross-examining her in court? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/James Comyn. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, James Comyn), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

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

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

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

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

	The Tireless Contributor Barnstar
	Thanks for removing junk (namely, those non-existent post-nominals) from the infoboxes of a plethora of articles. Great work!

Hi Atchom,

I have seen that you have removed a great deal of post nominal orders in infoboxes across Spanish-related individuals' articles. May I ask under what criteria have you done so?

--Cantabrucu (talk) 15:14, 20 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2019-07-20T15:14:00.000Z","author":"Cantabrucu","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Cantabrucu-2019-07-20T15:14:00.000Z-Removal_of_Post_nominals","replies":["c-Atchom-2019-07-20T16:47:00.000Z-Cantabrucu-2019-07-20T15:14:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi Cantabrucu. Of course you may. I removed these post-nominals because none of them exist. The habit of putting letters behind one's name to indicate state honours is almost entirely peculiar to English-speaking countries influenced by the British tradition. None of the Spanish orders of knighthood give an entitlement to post-nominal letters (unlike the case in the UK, where there is secondary legislation to that effect) and there is absolutely no evidence of a Spanish custom of doing so. In fact, the Spanish Wikipedia article on post-nominals specifically refers to it as a British custom.

I realise from your message to another contributor that you disagree, and that's fine. However, unless you're going to provide evidence that people go about referring to, say Miguel Arias Cañete, as Miguel Arias Cañete, OCIII, OCM, EUC, I'm going to keep removing them (the fact that two of these putative "Spanish" post-nominals are actually abbreviations of the English name of the award/post instead of the Spanish one is rather telling.)

Finally, no, I'm not "a biased British contributor", nor indeed am I British, and I would appreciate it if you skipped the personal attacks. Hope this answers your query.

The page Ernest Geoffrey Weeks has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from http://www.rcsigs.ca/index.php/Weeks,_Ernest_Geoffrey. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it.

An article you recently created, Ralph Littler, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

A tag has been placed on Bertram Mordaunt Chambers requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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. Ari T.

Who's Who (UK) is a generally unreliable source, per WP:RSP. Please do not create stubs solely sourced to this entry, since Outside exceptional circumstances, the source should normally not be used, and it should never be used for information about a living person. Examples of this include Alan William Shave, Draft:Patrick Garland (judge), etc. I suggest you move all single-sourced entries to Draft space. FYI, I might nominate the single-sourced entries after a reasonable WP:BEFORE for deletion. Thank you.

An article you recently created, Alan William Shave, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

the official rule is very simple: "If an editor raises an objection, move the page back to mainspace, and if it is not notable, list it at AfD."

There is a more practical version, which is much ore likely to keep the article: add one more good ref, and move it back. No one is likely to take it to AfD.

@DGG:, just assuming you're talking about Charles Henry Godden that I draftified and that you put reviewed. Following the workflow of AFC, how does the article meet the GNG with two sources, one of which is a primary source and the other of unknown reliability? Pilaz (talk) 15:44, 21 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-03-21T15:44:00.000Z","author":"Pilaz","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Pilaz-2022-03-21T15:44:00.000Z-DGG-2022-03-21T05:58:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

the official rule is that everything should be accepted which more likely than not to survive an AfD. This has generally been interpreted not at 51%, but at 67%; many reviewers, including myself, interpret it as being reasonably sure to pass AfD, which means something like 80%. (not that the erratic nature of afd really makes it able to be to quantitated more than very approximately).

the reviewing instructions are guide to learn how to use judgment--the only actual test is afd. I follow policy according to consensus, and guidelines as I think a reasonable interpretation --but think it responsible to advise anyone who asks to follow them strictly. Workflow and similar instructions and usages I take as advice, not as requirements--but I advise others to meet them to avoid being questioned. Thus I know that an article on anyone who has a RS for CBE is at least 80% sure of passing AfD, based on my experience of the only thing that decisions rest on here, common practice at AfD. (I was involved in several extensive discussion of the significance of these UK orders, where it was decided that that MBE by itself was not sufficient and did not necessarily imply other sources would be found, that OBE, made it probable, but not certain, and that CBE and above always proved to be notable enough, and I cannot recall one having failed afd unless for other reasons that notability. I also know the GNG is merely a subguideline of the Notability guideline, and all guidelines by their nature have exceptions . And Notability is a guideline; attempts to make it policy have failed; the actual policy it is based on is NOT INDISCRIMINATE.

But you will notice that, just as I say I do, I advised the editor here to add sufficient references to meet the conventional statement.

Thank you DGG for the rationale behind your decision, and for being transparent about it. You raise a lot of good points and opened up a few I hadn't considered (given the prominence of the GNG at AfD, one sometimes forgets WP:N is a guideline). An additional question, since I interacted with User:Necrothesp on this specific topic, quite recently, at User:Necrothesp/List of AfD discussions for individuals with a CBE or above: do you happen to remember on which noticeboard these several extensive discussion of the significance of these UK orders took place? Not looking for a specific link, just the general direction on where to look - best to incorporate them in a future discussion, if I open a new one.

Dear User:Atchom. How does one get to 34,180 edits? Chapeau. Wikipedian WatermillockCommon pointed me to "your" article "Bernard Ribeiro, Baron Ribeiro" as an example in support of bolding titles of nobility (in this case "Baron Ribeiro") at their first use in the main text after the first sentence of the lead (where they usually also appear in bold). WatermillockCommon and myself had a discussion about this practice after he bolded such titles in the article Gustavus Hamilton, 1st Viscount Boyne. I was astonished by his edit because User:Peacemaker67 had requested to unbold similar bolding of titles during the A-class review of the article Donough MacCarty, 1st Earl of Clancarty (see [2] look for MOS:BOLD). We hope that with your extraordinary experience you will be able to shed some light on this issue. With many thanks and best regards, Johannes Schade (talk) 10:58, 4 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221104105800","author":"Johannes Schade","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Johannes_Schade-20221104105800-Bernard_Ribeiro,_Baron_Ribeiro","replies":["c-Peacemaker67-20221105004600-Johannes_Schade-20221104105800"]}}-->

MOS:BOLD is very clear, bolding is generally limited to highlight the first occurrence of the article's title word or phrase in the lead section. MOS:BOLD#OTHER allows for a situation where a reader has followed a redirect to an article or section of an article where they appear in the first couple of paras of the lead or at the beginning of a section. In this sense, they are treated as if they were an alternative article title per MOS:BOLDALTNAMES. It seems to me that it would be appropriate to bold alternative titles in the lead (in both the article title and noble title senses) IF there is a plausible redirect from that alternative noble title (ie someone is likely to search for the subject of the article using that noble title). So, in the case of Donough MacCarty, 1st Earl of Clancarty, if it is plausible that someone might look him up using the search term "2nd Viscount Muskerry" , then there should be a redirect at that title that points to Donough MacCarty, 1st Earl of Clancarty, and 2nd Viscount Muskerry can be bolded in the lead. So, perhaps a redirect at 2nd Viscount Muskerry would be appropriate. If a section of an article is dedicated to the period while the subject of the article held a particular noble title, AND the noble title is a plausible redirect to the section, then the first mention of the new noble title could be bolded in that section. Beyond those situations, I cannot see a situation where the MOS permits bolding of such titles.

Hey. I've partially undone this edit on Gender Recognition Reform (Scotland) Bill. The original tweet stated that Chakrabarti was "sympathetic to the law's aims", which is different from her being "personally in favour of the reforms". Please be careful when adding text like this in the future to not go beyond the assertions made by the source supporting it please.

I'll also be changing "claimed" in a moment, per MOS:CLAIM, for the sentence relating to Colin Macfarlane. With that, using "claim" can have the implication that what Macfarlane said is untrue. It's better to stick to a non-loaded term like "said" in most cases. And for balance I probably would have changed "warned" for much the same reason.

You have recently edited a page related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give James Stevenson (Glasgow Camlachie MP) a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Are you sure this is for the lead? "Home Office cat" is just a description. It's like saying "Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, also known as the UK prime minister ...". If we have that, we also need "government cat", "government mouser", "Cabinet cat", "Cabinet mouser", "Home Office mouser", "British government cat", etc. Tim O'Doherty (talk) 19:40, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230812194000","author":"Tim O'Doherty","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Tim_O'Doherty-20230812194000-Home_Office","replies":["c-Atchom-20230812195700-Tim_O'Doherty-20230812194000"]}}-->

"Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office" is like a very recent coinage (not least because the Cabinet Office is a very recent institution).

I think from the sources it is clearly a well-established common name. The current situation is misleading insofar "Chief Mouser to the Cabinet Office" is a very recent title and most of these cats were never known by that title, so having Home Office cat in the lede seems more accurate to me.

Ngrams is of dubious reliability in this context where most contemporary references are in newspapers (befitting the light-hearted nature of the subject) and not in books. There are enough newspaper references to Home Office cat, a compendium BBC story from the last decade using Home Office cat, evidence from the National Archives that this was what the cat was known as, etc.

For that matter, there is no evidence that Neville Chamberlain's cat, say, was known as Chief Mouser, so the whole basis of the article becomes quite fragile if the previous title isn't acknowledged.

I don't think so. They were salaried at least as early as 1929, and probably since 1924 or before. They lived in different places around London, sure, but that's a bit like saying Robert Walpole wasn't a prime minister because he only governed the Kingdom of Great Britain.

Look, I don't want to be difficult over this and I think we both agree on the basics (that there was a long-standing tradition of giving a small grant to an official cat in the vicinity of Downing Street). I just don't want "Chief Mouser" to be anachronistically applied to previous cats, especially when the contemporaneous press regularly referred to them as the Home Office cat.

I see your point. I don't like anachronisms either. That being said though, (and I apologise for the endless comparisons to the office of the prime minister) Robert Walpole to Benjamin Disraeli being called "prime minister" is also anachronistic as the term was not in use until then. I think, given that modern sources (plus the most "scholarly" work on the chief mousers, Chris Day's book) retroactively applies the term, we should too.

Hello, you were informed last year (diff 1) that Who's Who (UK) is a generally unreliable source (WP:GUNREL) per current WP:RSP consensus, which was settled with an RfC that year. That RfC represents the most recent consensus on the publication. I reminded you again of this last week, when I sent Bruce Weir, Lord Weir, Michael Bruce, Lord Marnoch, and Malcolm Morison, Lord Morison to draftspace for being entirely sourced or partially sourced to Who's Who, which for obvious reasons cannot help meet the GNG. For each of these three pages, you received an individual notification on your user page indicating that Who's Who was a GUNREL. You reintroduced the draft Bruce Weir, Lord Weir into mainspace without removing the Who's Who source (diff 2), which I then had to subsequently remove (diff 3). You then re-added the same unreliable source five days later (diff 4), leaving us with the current article having Who's Who included (diff 5).

What point are you trying to make? If you are unhappy with the 2022 RfC result at WP:RSN, you are free to challenge that with another RfC there, but not to engage in disruptive editing to prove a point. Please consider this your third and final warning regarding this source, after which this matter will be brought to WP:ANI on WP:ICANTHEARYOU grounds.

First, four articles is not "a dozen". Second, the four articles were not ready for mainspace, since they had fewer than two reliable sources, meaning they had "very little chance of survival at AfD" (2a-ii criterion of WP:DRAFTIFY). Third, I found your articles through this, which caught the articles you created on August 8, and which upon review I submitted back to AfC on August 10. One comes to wonder why you insist on bringing back Who's Who at Bruce Weir, Lord Weir, when the other sources already seem to cover the sentences cited: why the overkill with a source that is largely autobiographical?

It is customary to allow newly-created articles a few days to be finished. If you are really impatient to read them, you could have improved them yourself. If you draftify lots of them when it is obvious that they would pass notability it's pretty obvious who's acting in bad faith. You've had to move one of the ones you moved to draft back even though it was obviously notable. You moved another article to draft claiming there wasn't a single source when you were clearly wrong and when that article also obviously passes notability. This is harassment, pure and simple. Maybe you can redirect your energy toward improving this website instead of conducting your pointless vendetta.

It is customary to allow newly-created articles a few days to be finished. If an article is not acceptable for mainspace given a lack of sources, WP:AFC can give you more than a few days for you to be finished. And if time is really the issue, please consider Template:Under construction next time, so that your fellow editors may at least know that you are still working on the article. At any rate, Who's Who falls under WP:SPS, and WP:ABOUTSELF is the policy you should be concerned with. I also probably don't have to remind you that you can't source the claim that His son Robert Weir, Lord Weir has been a Senator of the College of Justice since 2020, having taken the same judicial title as his father to an unreliable source, per current consensus on this source being qualified as WP:SPS,WP:ABOUTSELF#2, and WP:BLP.

"Context matters tremendously when determining the reliability of sources, and their appropriate use on Wikipedia. Sources which are generally unreliable may still be useful in some situations. For example, even extremely low-quality sources, such as social media, may sometimes be used as self-published sources for routine information about the subjects themselves." If you are suggesting he is lying about who his son is, be my guest.

Also, the way you conducted the Who's Who call for comments was disgraceful. You did not inform any of the editors who regularly work on UK topics.

Who's Who may be used as long as it complies with all 5 criteria of WP:ABOUTSELF, per the RfC designating it as a WP:SPS.

• Message for User:Pilaz. The Who's Who RfC of 2022 was tainted by cherrypicking and misrepresentation of sources, evidence and facts. The content at WP:RSP is tainted for the same reason.

  For example, WP:RSP presently claims Who's Who's "content is supplied primarily by its subjects". In reality, none of the content of the pre-1897 editions of Who's Who was supplied by its subjects. Accordingly WP:RSP cherrypicks the post-1896 editions and erroneously attempts to equate them with the pre-1897 editions. The whole RfC was a massive catalogue of mistakes like that.

  Ah, yes, the famous cherrypicking of the last 126 years of said publication, as opposed to the earlier 46 years. Speaking of the 1897 edition, Philip Waller wrote this about Douglas Sladen, the editor: "This was how Sladen behaved: if celebrities did not deliver, he invented a CV for them. It usually brought them into line.". Truly the epitome of accuracy, well ahead of its time.

  @User:Pilaz (1) The relative duration of old Who's Who and A & Black's Who's Who's is not relevant.

  (2) Sladen was editor for three years from 1897 to 1899. Waller's comments about Sladen prove absolutely nothing about the period before 1897 or the period from 1900 onwards.

  (3) The sources you have invoked in previous discussions appear to relate to actual or alleged errors in editions from the years 1972 to 2004. That is not 126 years, even if you include Sladen's three years. It is no more than 35 years.

  (4) Waller does not say that the "invented CV" was not factually accurate. W S Gilbert did in fact write verses and did in fact write the libretti to the said comic operas. Gilbert's stated objection to the biography was to the omission of his 70 original dramas from the book, not to the accuracy of what was included. Waller does not say that any other "invented CV" (if there was any other) was not factually accurate.

  (5) Waller does not offer any example of an "invented CV" actually being published in Who's Who other than Gilbert's. Waller's stated source "Twenty Years" does not offer any example of an "invented CV" actually being published other than Gilbert's. In fact, "Twenty Years" says that the one other "invented CV" was not published (if it existed). Neither Waller nor "Twenty Years" actually claim that Sladen ever actually published an "invented CV" for anyone other than Gilbert. You have not found any historical evidence that Sladen ever actually published an "invented CV" for anyone other than Gilbert.

  (6) If Sladen did publish an an "invented CV" for anyone other than Gilbert, it would be easy to detect that by comparing the same biography in consecutive editions, particularly those of 1899 and 1900.

  (7) Waller says that the actual facts are the addition and removal of a single line in that Gilbert's biography.

  (8) Waller does not say or suggest or imply that the "invented CV" means that the book is "generally unreliable" or anything like that, or that it should not be used as a source. Waller is not writing about whether the book should be considered a reliable source or used as a source.

  (9) Waller cites and quotes Sladen's autobiography extensively, which proves Waller does not consider autobiography to be inherently unreliable.

  (10) You have cherrypicked a sentence from a single source and quoted it out of context in a way that is misleading. James500 (talk) 19:54, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230818195400","author":"James500","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-James500-20230818195400-Pilaz-20230817082500","replies":["c-Pilaz-20230818215100-James500-20230818195400"]}}-->

  (1) It is, since you brought up pre-1897 and post-1897 as "cherrypicking". To quote you, the fact that none of the content of the pre-1897 editions of Who's Who was supplied by its subjects makes Who's Who a weaker version of Burke's Peerage or Debrett's Peerage, which was the criticism that Sladen raised against the pre-1897 publication in Twenty Years. If anything, it seems odd to me that you come asking for a moratorium for pre-1897 content when post-1897 is much more significant, by virtue of being submitted by the people themselves, being more inclusive and being more recent.

  (2) Post-Sladen, Who's Who became an even less transparent publication by hiding the name of its editor(s). In more recent years, this has been claimed as being a "shield" against solicitation (one has to assume this must have happened at some point, otherwise why take these measures), but shrouding the editorial board of a publication like this in secrecy doesn't quite create the transparency of a RS as described in WP:RS. To my knowledge, there were no corrections, apologies or acknowledgement of Sladen's behavior when Sladen's contract was not renewed in 1899, which is likely symptomatic of the attitude of A & C Black towards his craft. It certainly doesn't inspire confidence in their reputation for accuracy.

  (3) I'm sure if we look into other printed primary sources, we'll find plenty of inaccuracies complaining about Who's Who entries. This seems a constant in Who's Who history: it is impossible for a directory of thousands of entries to be free of mistake, even genuine.

  (4) Then why does Waller confirm, in footnote 94 of the same page: Sladen did not always allow accuracy to get in the way of a good story?

  (5) Funnily enough, the page you link to confirms that Sladen invented (at best, guessed) the age of a prominent authoress, making her ten years older. So yes, Sladen himself admits to doing this more than once, and I choose to believe his transparency. Sladen and the new publisher were trying to sell books, and to do that he needed as many entries as possible.

  (6) Honestly, since more convincing and hand-wringing seems to have been needed to fill the forms of the older editions, you could just run a 1897-1899 comparison and see what sticks out. Maybe you are right, and there are only one or two cases where Sladen knowingly sent inaccurate information to print. Or maybe you'll uncover more...

  As for (7), (8), (9) and (10), Waller was writing a history book, not trying to evaluate the publication's accuracy for the purpose of using it on thousands of biographies on a free internet encyclopedia. Waller seems to believe Sladen's autobiography, where the latter admits to these shortcuts, and I think it tracks with Sladen's motivations. Waller was not concerned with evaluating the entire history of a publication or whether Who's Who would fit nicely into the WP:RS guidelines of Wikipedia. What can be said about this publication, surely, is that it is autobiographical with a track record of at least some entries being incorrect, either due to editors spreading unconfirmed information (to be charitable to Sladen; others would call some of his gimmicks outright lies) or, most of the time, due to the temptation of entrants to embellish their autobiographies. Here's what we can say for sure, then, with respect to WP:REPUTABLE: (I) Post-1896, the publication's entries are not independent from the subject (II) Due to the entries being autobiographical, their application to Wikipedia is limited to WP:ABOUTSELF (III) There is a poor history of factchecking or corrections being issued, due to the power nature of the publications. Biographies are only corrected by mutual accord (Crick and Rosenbaum 2004), which tells us that the power lays with the biographee. So should we just hope that the subjects tell the truth about themselves and slap a RS tag on the publication?. If it were a reliable source, we should at least expect at minimum someone to exercise oversight on what is published, but A & C Black doesn't have a track record of doing that or standing up to errors. You can try your hand at another RfC, but with these basic facts, the guidelines and policies will remain on the side of this being a generally unreliable source - and certainly not one you can use to determine a biographee's notability, because the GNG demands independent secondary sources.

  @User:Pilaz: I have asked you to stop engaging in cherrypicking and misrepresentation of sources, evidence and facts. You have responded, twice, by engaging in even more cherrypicking and misrepresentation. If you do not stop engaging in cherrypicking and misrepresentation, then it is inevitable that your cherrypicking and misrepresentation will eventually become the subject of a conduct dispute, inasmuch as sooner or later another editor (and I do not want to be that editor) will eventually accuse you of a blockable level of incompetence. And they will not need to start another RfC in order to ask for your account to be blocked. If someone thought that you were going to seriously disrupt another RfC with more cherrypicking and misrepresentation, they might decide that they cannot start an RfC without asking for your account to be blocked before the start of the RfC, to prevent you from disrupting the RfC in the first place.

  Returning to the matter at hand: It is totally unacceptable for WP:RSP to continue to falsely claim that the pre-1897 Who's Who's "content is supplied primarily by its subjects" as knowingly making such false claims is prohibited by WP:HOAX which says that hoaxes are forbidden everywhere "on Wikipedia" including the project namespace. I should also point out that, while you were cherrypicking, you ignored the fact that the content of the Who's Who Year Book, and content of the tables in the pre-1904 annual volumes of Who's Who, was not "supplied primarily by its subjects" either. I should further point out that, while you were cherrypicking, you ignored the fact that Who Was Who is fact checked and corrected before publication, even if the deceased biographee objected to the correction during their lifetime (Cable-Alexander, The Financial Times, 1990). I should further point out that, while you were cherrypicking, you ignored the fact that biographees in the post-1896 annual volumes are not permitted to include libellous statements in their biographies (BBC News, 2001), the implication being that Who's Who must employ either "libel readers", or similar persons, to check the biographies, and remove any potentially libellous statements, before publication. In each of these five cases the power certainly does not lie with the biographees. I should further point out that, while you were cherrypicking, you ignored the fact that the annual volumes of the post-1896 Who's Who have been extensively fact checked by a massive number of book reviewers, journalists, library scientists, historians and etc, and that those fact checkers generally say that the reliability and accuracy is somewhere between acceptable and excellent. I should further point out that, while you were cherrypicking, you ignored the fact that there are studies that say that autobiographees in the leading Who's Who publications generally do tell the truth about themselves: such as the study by Kiser and Schacter, and the other studies, discussed in Persistence and Change in the Protestant Establishment. (At page 394 of "Demographic Characteristics of Women in Who's Who" (1949) 27 Milbank Memorial Fund Quarterly 392, Kiser and Schacter say that, from fact checking of biographies, from a sample of 2,409 articles in the 1948 to 1949 edition, it appears that the number of errors in the American Marquis publication is "virtually negligible", notwithstanding the use of questionaires and practices similar to the A & C Black publication.) I should further point out that, while you were cherrypicking, you ignored the fact that a high proportion of the small number of allegations of errors in Who's Who originated in propaganda and negative advertising from business rivals of Who's Who or one of its biographees; or were written by members of an organisation whose then chairman said he is unhappy that Who's Who does not include more celebrities from that organisation; or were written by critics who could find so few errors that they had to resort to recycling old news of errors from up to two decades earlier. [The problem with these kind of allegations is not necessarily whether the errors actually exist (although some of the allegations are not accurate), but that the significance and importance of the errors may be massively exagerrated out of all proportion.] And so on. None of this information should have been witheld from WP:RSN. All of it should have been disclosed.

  As an aside: The sources you have been removing from articles include Who Was Who. Since Who Was Who is fact checked and corrected before publication, and the corrections cannot be refused by the biographee, and no evidence has been produced that Who Was Who contains any errors whatsoever, you should immediately stop removing Who Was Who from articles, because it manifestly does not satisfy the closing rationale of the RfC. By removing Who Was Who, which was not even mentioned by name in the RfC, you are going far beyond any consensus that could possibly be alleged to have been reached in the RfC.

  While it is absolutely true that some of the power relationship lies with the editor (as you rightly point out, the 2001 BBC piece has Charles Black saying that "the only criterion is that the entry is not libellous"), it is also the only change that the publication is capable of making ("The editors make no changes to the information supplied.") Similarly, the 2004 Spectator piece also has the publishing director of Who's Who, Jonathan Glasspool, state that in case of non-libellous disagreement between the publication and the biographee, the latter prevails ("But, to take one example, what if Jeffrey Archer insisted that his entry was correct when it wrongly states that he became a member of the Greater London Council in 1966? ‘We would have to take him at his word,’ says Mr Glasspool"). Hopefully this helps explain why I think that, in modern times, the power relationship lies with the biographee. This was not always the case, as Sladen's autobiography suggests.

  You may think that I am cherrypicking, but you may not have the full context of the first RfC. I brought the RfC to RSN editors because this source was being used in the context of the general notability guideline to claim a living person was notable, although that person had no other significant coverage from reliable sources under their name. In that context, I did not look for sources, like the ones you added from the early 1900s, since 1) I was interested in recent views on the publication and 2) I did not find, let alone have access to, the sources you later brought to the article. At the time, previous discussions and the article had little to no third-party assessments of the publication, so it seemed like a vast improvement to me. Some sources not being brought to the RSN thread does not mean they were intentionally "withheld".

  FYI, most people try to help the project, not hurt it, so I don't really understand where you got your idea that sooner or later another editor (and I do not want to be that editor) will eventually accuse you of a blockable level of incompetence. Although accusations of "cherrypicking" and "misrepresentation" I can understand (but not condone), if you believe my behavior is worthy of a sanction, then I invite you to take your evidence to WP:ANI where our conversations will become the subject of wider scrutiny. Otherwise, it's probably best not to accuse others of bad faith as long as it remains a content dispute: I really don't think I am cherrypicking or misrepresenting sources in any way, nor that I am being unfair to you. We have both significantly improved the Who's Who (UK) article from the state it used to be in, and have engaged productively there, so I have to ask that you keep the same level of collegiality here as you have with me there. Please heed my advice seriously, because I think your insinuations cross a line. We are all volunteers here, and we're trying to improve the project because we believe in it.

I have read the message you placed on my talk page. I believe that the previous RfC was at WP:RSN. I am afraid that I do not have time right now to prepare an RfC either. I cannot see myself having time to do that for several months, or possibly even longer. I suspect the best starting point for an RfC might be those parts of the Who's Who corpus where the editor was in complete control (and where the biographees (if there were any) had no control) of what information was published, namely the pre-1897 editions, the pre-1904 tables, the Who's Who Year Book, and Who Was Who. I cannot think of any arguments against the reliability of any of that content that the community would be likely to accept.

No one is ever going to notify you of any discussion at WP:RSN. As far as I can see, the particpants never send notifications to anyone, even when asked in express and unambiguous words to do so. If you do not actually watch WP:RSN, whether by checking it regularly or by using something like the Wikipedia:Feedback request service (which may not be able to do WP:RSN specifically), you will never be aware of any discussion taking place there.

Hi, I've noticed that you recently started hounding my edits (WP:HOUND) by following my contrib history and reverting my edits. It seems you disagree with what various template documentation pages say (notably, Template:Infobox military person and Template:Infobox person) and therefore you disagree with editors who implement what the documentation pages say.

Can you point me to where it was decided that honorifics should go in the 'name' field of the person's infobox? It appears contra https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_person#Parameters . If there is a policy or consensus on this, I'd strongly recommend using an edit summary pointing editors to it. I have reverted some of these changes, however if policy/consensus supports it, I'll stop. Separately, I note that you have added middle-names to a few people's bios, without providing a source.

Thank you for the message. There have been extensive discussions about Sir and Dame since one particular user decided to unilaterally move thousands of "Sir" and "Dame" to the prefix field, when they are part of the name (as reflected by the longstanding rule in WP:SIR that requires them to be bolded in the article lede with the other parts of the name. There is a long discussion at Template talk:Infobox person and a couple of simultaneous threads elsewhere.

The middle names are sourced from the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, which is widely considered to be authoritative.

Thanks. I don't see much of a consensus in that discussion, but on the other hand, I'm not equipped to argue one way or the other.

Your recent editing history at Tony Blair shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

You joined in with an on-going edit war, that you were clearly already aware of, to repeat an edit that had already been reverted repeatedly.

So with regards to Alan Bates, it's been set. But now I ask, what about other actors? Are their Sir/Dame prefixes all meant to be placed in front of their names as well, I would presume? (There shouldn't be any difference, right?)

Here are a bevy of examples that come to mind: Julie Andrews, Michael Caine, Gladys Cooper, Daniel Day-Lewis, Olivia de Havilland, Judi Dench, Edith Evans (And should Edith Mary Booth even be in the infobox like that??), Michael Gambon, Alec Guinness, Rex Harrison, John Hurt, Celia Johnson, Angela Lansbury, David Lean (So I snuck in a director, big whoop!), Ian McKellen, John Mills, Helen Mirren, Michael Redgrave, Vanessa Redgrave, Margaret Rutherford, Maggie Smith, Elizabeth Taylor, May Whitty

Whoops, just realized how long this list is already. I'll leave it at that for now!

P.S. Just if you wouldn't mind helping me comprehend this for future reference, since I'm still a novice at peerages but a huge fan of cinema and these actors and I want to grasp this: Laurence Olivier

The suffix, OM, that's the Order of Merit—his post-nominals, I get that. Now the rest.

The paragraph begins Laurence Kerr Olivier, Baron Olivier

While the infobox reads~

The Right Honourable

The Lord Olivier

The prefix, The Right Honourable, his pre-nominals.

The moniker "The Lord Olivier".

And the territorial "Baron Olivier".

What each means, especially those latter two…why they're different in each spot—plus specifically placed in either spot? This is all a bit foreign to me (an American), but I'd love the Peerages-for-Dummies version without the excess palather, please?

Just noticed Richard Attenborough had the same distinctions when I was about to add him to the above list, in which he didn't qualify.

Thanks for adding the full names of a lot of MPs as they take the oath/affirm (I'm still waiting to see whether my local MP Lizzi uses a "Sunday name"). But you seemed to give up on adding the excellent source after a while - there's nothing to show where Anna Gelderd's middle name came from, nor several other later ones. Could you perhaps add the source, so the middle names don't get deleted as unsourced?

And will you be creating the necessary redirects from these names? I wonder whether there's a bot which would pick up the bolded lead name and create one? But in some cases there will be more than one plausible name from which to create a redirect, so I've created Maximilian Wilkinson as well as Maximilian Peter McGregor Wilkinson, for Max Wilkinson who is on my watchlist (which is what alerted me to your project).

Walco1 (talk) 13:18, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240720131800","author":"Walco1","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Walco1-20240720131800-Seeking_consensus_on_MOS:SIR","replies":[]}}-->

Hello, Atchom, and thanks for your contributions, especially to biographies of French jurists and politicians, and related concepts in French law. I think I first noticed this in your article Avoué, which I updated, and that led to some of the biographies, and I noticed you created nine articles today, and a similar number yesterday. I ended up at one of them, and long story short, that is now in Draft space at Draft:Eugène Caillaux, after I discovered that it has no secondary sources as required by English Wikipedia's notability policy. Please incubate this article in Draft space, and then either submit it for Afc review, or just move it back to Mainspace after the issues are dealt with.

Also, please use in-line citations (the article had none, but there were already three tags by that point, so I didn't bother adding another one for that) rather than plain, bare urls in a general references section. Also, even if the topic meets the minimum bar of notability, if there is insufficient sourcing to develop it past a bare-bones, two-sentence article with 33 words, per WP:PAGEDECIDE, it might be better to include it as one section or paragraph in an article on a broader topic, such as, perhaps, List of French jurists, rather than leave it there as a permanent stub.

Thank you for the message. There are in fact two secondary sources on the Caillaux article if you click through the first and second links. He wasn't a jurist but a politician, and as he was minister of finance I think you can assume he is notable.

Seems very likely, but still needs the sources to prove it, right? Seems a little thin, so far. I did some searching around (Qwant has some links; see the talk page) and it looks like one of those borderline cases, where it may pass the threshold of notability, but sources dry up past the most basic information, which appears to be the same information, plus or minus, from all the sources, so their independence is questionable. It might end up better as part of a list article, maybe, List of French Finance Ministers, or something. I mean, how much is available out there about him, if we used every single source in existence about him, from what I have seen so far, they all paint the basic, resumé of birth/death, career positions and dates, and one I saw had his wife and children on it, but we usually don't include them in an article if not separately notable, other than a brief mention in a ==Personal life== section.

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from German Wikipedia to Hellmuth Becker (politician). While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. Sample wording for this is given here. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attribution must be given retroactively, for example:

NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

Retroactive attribution may be added using a dummy edit; see Repairing insufficient attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you must add attribution retrospectively, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you.

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Charles Cameron Lees (colonial administrator), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Governor of Mauritius.

Hello @Atchom. Why have you felt the need to remove the HonMag and Bar post-nominals from the Infobox?

Hi Mac. UK usage does not give barons a special postnominal. Ditto for honorary magistrate, which is covered by JP. Cheers!

In fact, baronets who are peers do not use Bt or Bart. by long-standing usage.

Hello, I'm Neveselbert. I noticed that you recently removed content from Denis Thatcher without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ‑‑Neveselbert (talk · contribs · email) 20:19, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20241208201900","author":"Neveselbert","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Neveselbert-20241208201900-December_2024","replies":[]}}-->
