(Some new and additional article talk pages may still require a banner however) Aims After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire in April 2008. Specific aims for the project are:- To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below) To recruit more active editors (See Member News) To bring our top level article Yorkshire up to Featured article status To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article status To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below) To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members and apropos of the above a 2010 New Year article improvement drive/collaboration is being organised. Priority Articles The top priority articles that have been identified to date are as follows - Bradford • East Riding of Yorkshire • Henry Moore • Kingston upon Hull • Leeds • Northern England • North Yorkshire • Ripon • Sheffield • South Yorkshire • Wakefield • West Yorkshire • William Wilberforce • York • Yorkshire • Yorkshire and the Humber The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

Hi, Thank you for correcting the cite date issue. I used the automatic citation option and assumed that it would format everything appropriately. Is it something I did or didn't do that caused the error or is there something I can do in future to make sure the issue doesn't happen again?

Hello, it is a problem with the cite creation option. You can scan the references, once you have used the option, to see if there are any red error messages "Check date values in: |date= (help)" next to the reference text. Another way is to look for the hidden category CS1 errors: dates, but you will need to turn on the option in your preferences to see these. In preferences, on the Appearances tab check option to "Show hidden categories".

Please note the recent edits on the above article and its talk page. Please would you kindly help me? I am having trouble with an unregistered editor who may or may not have a valid point (I don't believe he has, but you are welcome to disagree on that), but he is trolling, hounding and bullying, and will not stop. He has also engaged in an edit war, taking cover in editing as an unregistered user, although he is clearly experienced in and familiar with the workings of Wikipedia.

If we were to ignore his trolling for a moment - the question that he raises, about the use of GRO index references for a biography subject, has already been dealt with in the past,in respect of the above article. You yourself have commented on it, I have added plenty of secondary sources in response to that discussion, and someone then removed the citations tag, saying that the background section now had sufficient secondary sources. The GRO index and Census references are only there as a double-check for the secondary sources, which in my experience are never fully reliable and don't always agree with each other on the subject of bmd dates etc. So he does not need to raise that issue again and he certainly does not need to raise it by trolling, hounding and bullying.

I am wondering if he is in reality a registered user who is currently blocked. It might be worth checking the IP address?

Update: The above troll, (User contributions for 88.109.209.235) is now starting on my other created articles. See William John Seward Webber.

@Storye book: - cannot help with checking of the IP address as I have not got the authority for that. If you think that they are socking then you will have to raise a sockpupet investigation request for those with CheckUser privilege to do the checking. It certainly looks like they are an experienced user who knows the ropes. Probably the same person as 88.109.207.96. May be you would need to identify who you think is the blocked user to get someone to do a check.

Thank you, Keith D. I'm afraid that I have no idea of which registered username(s) the unregistered troll 88.109.209.235/88.109.207.96 may have used or is using - so according to the WP:SPI page I have no chance of raising an investigation request. If the troll persists in making disrupting edits, especially on pages which are going to DYK, and in hounding me and so on - would it be possible to block the IP addresses which he uses?

@Storye book: - if they are causing problems, then I can block them for a time or indefinitely.

@Keith D: Thank you, I would be most grateful for a full block rather than for specific pages, because he has been hounding me, and has shown that he may well continue to search through my own archives and list of created articles so as to find more articles to gripe about - and that tends to result in more disruptive editing by him. Besides the damage to Wikipedia articles, the hounding and goading has been causing me distress and interruption, when I have a lot of work to do here. So yes, please, block him.

Update. FYI, the same user has now completely vandalised the same two articles (see Revision history of "William John Seward Webber" and Revision history of "John Wormald Appleyard") under two more IP addresses 88.109.205.227 and 88.109.218.190). He has also left a creepy comment on my talk page (I added the subheading of 4 IP addresses for my records). At least we know now, that if there was ever any doubt as to this editor's ill intentions, all is clear now.

Update: FYI, the same user has blanked and scrambled an article again, under IP 88.109.218.190, this time when the article William John Seward Webber was at DYK. Gerda Arendt spotted it and reverted it as soon as she saw it, but the article had already remained scrambled and mostly deleted for 14 minutes while at DYK. (diff). As you will see from the link, the user had used that IP previously to scramble John Wormald Appleyard. Since that IP has been used only for clear vandalism, please could you kindly block it?

I have started an individual good article reassessment of Photovoltaic power station which was rated "good" in 2013 and I think it needs modernizing. If you are interested in the discussion, please participate by adding your comments to the reassessment page.

(Some new and additional article talk pages may still require a banner however) Aims After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire in April 2008. Specific aims for the project are:- To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below) To recruit more active editors (See Member News) To bring our top level article Yorkshire up to Featured article status To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article status To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below) To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members and apropos of the above a 2010 New Year article improvement drive/collaboration is being organised. Priority Articles The top priority articles that have been identified to date are as follows - Bradford • East Riding of Yorkshire • Henry Moore • Kingston upon Hull • Leeds • Northern England • North Yorkshire • Ripon • Sheffield • South Yorkshire • Wakefield • West Yorkshire • William Wilberforce • York • Yorkshire • Yorkshire and the Humber The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first. Happy Christmas Just to say thanks for all the effort put in by members on articles covering the Yorkshire area and to wish everyone a Happy Christmas. It is time to take a break and to spend some time with family and friends. May be even to indulge yourself in the food and drink that abounds at this time of year or even make that occasional visit to a church.

Hey Keith D, hope you're having a great day sir :)

I'm not sure if this is exactly how I should contact you - but I believe this is your talk page haha!

I am writing about an edit undo you made yesterday on Bedworth & Nuneatons Wikipedia. You stated I need to be in "mainspace" before making changes, can you clarify what this means exactly? New to this all. Would be great to get my edit verified, thank you!

Hello, the link Dylan Davies target is in the draft namespace. You will need to get this approved and moved to Fxtch before you can add links to it from other articles. The draft namespace is used to allow articles to be developed before being published for general consumption, when you think they are ready then you can submit them for consideration for publication as per Articles for creation. Once accepted it will be moved to mainspace and then you can add the link in to the Bedworth and Nuneaton articles. Hope this helps.

Hello, few minor points to look at.

1. Be consistent with the templates used for citing sources. At least 1 reference uses {{citation}} while the rest are {{cite web}}.
2. Date formats appear to be mixed day first and month first format, as a British person I would go with day first format.
3. Dates are usually given without ordinals, i.e. 2 January rather than 2nd January.
4. The lead section should summarise the rest of the article, and does not need references. Move the reference down into the body of the article where the fact is discussed.
5. Punctuation placement - the reference markers should appear after the punctuation.

Hope these help.

Can be either, as the deprecation of the non-hyphenated parameter was defeated. I much prefer the non-hyphenated version as it does not wrap in the edit window and is underlined in red by the spellchecker.

Hi, could you look at the 2022 Squad under Hull Kingston Rovers. I've updated the squad etc, but something isn't right, as it wont show the squad numbers etc. i'm not sure what i've missed, but maybe you could look at it and correct it?
