Thanks—I've got a few ideas up in the air but nothing in shape to be nominated yet. Black Mirror's latest renewal (for series 7) is a blessing and a curse.

An important note about behavioral guidelines

(Verse 1) Yo, listen up, here's a story untold, About the Wikipedia streets, where the key is to be bold. But hold up, before you throw a punch or a jab, Remember, personal attacks, they ain't fab.

(Chorus) In the world of Wiki, we're writing the script, No room for haters, let's keep it equipped. With respect and unity, we stand side by side, In the credits of this 80s flick, together we ride.

(Verse 2) Now, editing's a battle, of facts and of wit, But when tempers flare up, we don't quit. We talk it out, share a point, or maybe concede, 'Cause in this community, it's unity we need.

(Chorus) In the world of Wiki, we're fixing the plot, No personal attacks, give it all you got. With a keyboard as our sword, and truth as our guide, In the credits of this 80s movie, with pride we abide.

(Bridge) So before you hit "send", take a breath, take a beat, Remember, kindness in this game, can't be beat. Let's make this Wiki world a better place to be, In the credits of this film, it's respect we wanna see.

(Outro) So here's to the editors, the writers, the crew, In this 80s movie credit rap, we salute you. Keep the vibe positive, the community tight, In the world of Wikipedia, let's do it right. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 02:57, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I realized you have a list of your GA reviews in your userspace so I did a quick compare: the extra ones are Cribbage (pool) and Geology Hall, New Brunswick, New Jersey, for which ChristieBot has credited you with both GA1 and GA2. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 20:13, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And checking, it looks like you did review the cribbage article, but the other one is an error on the bot's part -- you only reviewed GA2. I'll look into that. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 20:21, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I bowed out of the Cribbage one so I don't count it, that's what it was. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 20:33, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request for help with a peer review

Hello again. Sorry for the random message. I was wondering if you could possibly help me with my peer review for the Kes (Star Trek) article? I saw your excellent review for the Iron Man FAC so I thought that I should reach out. I am trying to gauge if the article would be appropriate for a FAC. I completely understand if the quality is just not on that level. I am not super confident with it so I intend to keep the peer review open for a while to get as much feedback as possible. I completely understand if you do not have the time or interest. I hope you are doing well and having a great week so far. I look forward to whatever article you bring to the FAC process next after The Hunger (Alexander McQueen collection). Aoba47 (talk) 02:18, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! You never have to apologize for messaging me, I'm always happy to help out a friend :) I'll put it on my watchlist and try to get to it within a week, but if I let it slip (as I often do), please ping me. I'm doing well and I hope you are too. Trying to decide whether it'll be Pantheon ad Lucem or The Girl Who Lived in the Tree first; they'll both go eventually so it's mostly just a matter of order. Pantheon has a few elegant designs, but is overall pretty boring, so there's a lot less said about it (much easier to write :P). Girl is outstanding from top to bottom, so it's more fun to write, but more work too. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:31, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the response and the kind words! Take as much time as you need. I am in absolutely no rush. I am glad you are doing well. I have been doing better, thank you for asking. I can understand the pros and cons to both choices lol. I agree that The Girl Who Lived in the Tree is more exciting, but a FAC for Pantheon ad Lucem could bring some fun to it (but hopefully not in a negative way of course lol). Either way you go, I look forward to doing a review and reading through either article, and I am sure other reviews feel the same way. I am still very impressed by all the work you have put into the Alexander McQueen collections. Aoba47 (talk) 16:56, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II.

Proposal 3b (in trial): Make the first two days discussion-only
Proposal 13 (in trial): Admin elections
Proposal 14 (implemented): Suffrage requirements
Proposals 16 and 16c (phase II discussion): Allow the community to initiate recall RfAs and Community recall process based on dewiki
Proposal 17 (phase II discussion): Have named Admins/crats to monitor infractions
Proposal 24 (phase II discussion): Provide better mentoring for becoming an admin and the RfA process
Proposal 25 (implemented): Require nominees to be extended confirmed

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations, and thank you today for Oyster dress, introduced: "Once upon a time, Alexander McQueen was known for tight tailoring and sharp cuts. He made dresses, but he didn't make dresses. Then he went to work for Givenchy, where he learned the real art of dressmaking. Channelling his obsession with outdoing British designer John Galliano, he came up with the oyster dress, a riff on Galliano's 1987 shellfish dress that blew the original out of the water. The oyster dress, a full-length gown in layers of distressed beige chiffon that appeared in Irere (S/S 2003), is one of McQueen's most famous designs. Only two copies of the original are known to exist, owned by The Met in New York and Kim Kardashian, respectively."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:15, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the sudden edits

Fyi, I'm just letting you know that WWE have been doing an ARG campaign lately and a couple of the clues led to the Dusky Seaside Sparrow and Decree 900 articles. That's why it's so sudden. 86.13.203.114 (talk) 01:54, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I was wondering what the wrestling connection was. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 01:57, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your welcome. Kinda felt bad seeing so many fans change the article outta nowhere. I think the actual goal WWE had was specific dates and clues in the articles, so I doubt they would've even remotely wanted the changes either.

I suggest just keeping an eye out for these things during the next few weeks. 86.13.203.114 (talk) 02:04, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it looks like there's some kind of connection to June 17. I wish the wrestling people well and all with their ARG but I wish they would think about how annoying this is for other people. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:18, 28 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question about GA review process

Hi Premeditated_Chaos, may I ask you a question about the GA review process? I've agreed to do a review on an article, and I think it meets almost all the criteria, but I'm just uncertain about one: the cites. The article is well-sourced, and I've done a spot-check on a lot of the cites, but I've found several that lead to dead links or that don't seem to support the point that they're being cited for. I appreciate that GA review isn't as rigourous as FA, but I didn't see an answer to this in the GA FAQ. Could I put it on hold for a week and let the nominator have the list of cites that have problems? Would welcome your advice. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 22:25, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing this is for Tamil Nadu? For the dead links, you could try running IABot to see if it can rescue any of the dead links with archived links. There's also some useful ideas at WP:DEADREF to look at. My concern is the failed verifications - those are much worse of a problem. Were they inserted by previous editors or by the GA nom? If they were inserted by earlier editors, that's an oversight but not terrible, but if they were inserted by the GA nom, it's much more concerning. How many instances of this have you found?

Whether or not to hold, in my opinion, would really be predicated on how many instances and how egregiously off the mark the content is from the source. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 22:52, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. The dead links are older ones, as you might expect, I think before the current nominator came on (it was nominated a decade ago and got a quick fail). The ones that have content issues are ones that are clearly related to the matter under discussion, but just don't quite support the sentence. They're not a big part of the ones I checked. (Yes, it's Tamil Nadu).

What I did was check every 20th cite, and if it was an online cite, I clicked on it to check. Also checked a few around each 20th cite. (There's 590 cites,and I wasn't going to click everyone that had a link!)

I think I'll put a hold on it, suggest nominator check the ones I flag, and also consider checking the older links from 2012 or before; I think that's from the previous nominator. Other than this issue, I think it's very well-written, very detailed and good coverage.

There's also some typos and grammar issues; probably unavoidable in such a big article. I'll wait until the GA matter is decided, and then suggest my changes. I do wonder if part of what is catching my attention is a difference between North American English and Indian English, so I don't want to be too definitive.

Thanks very much for your comments. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 01:37, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, I've been enjoying your McQueen articles. It's an area I know nothing about, but it's fascinating to read. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 01:38, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I think your course of action sounds reasonable. "Connected but slightly off" is reasonable and fixable, and if there's not that many of them you can probably chalk it up to editor error; happens to the best of us.

Glad you're enjoying the McQueen series! They're lots of fun to write, each one presents its own challenge. Hopefully I'll get my next one out of draft and into main soon. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:03, 3 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just approved the Tamil Nadu article as a Good Article. The nominator was very helpful and responsive in updating cites. Does the Wiki software automatically add the "Good Article" button at the top of the article page? Or is there something more I need to do? Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 13:47, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Once you've taken all the closing steps, the bot will take care of the rest. It runs a couple times an hour if I recall correctly. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 13:49, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Great, thanks. Everything on the template is now "y", so that should happen in a bit. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 13:55, 11 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again! I've got a follow-up question: would you be willing to take a look at my GA assessment on the Tamil Nadu article? That was the first one I've done, and I would appreciate any feedback you may have on the way I did it. Was it thorough enough? balanced? Anything I could have done differently or better? I've seen your comments on the GA project page about GA not meant to be as rigorous as FA, and I kept that in mind. Any comments that you may have would be very welcome. (I've now been asked to do a GA review on another Indian state, Andhra Pradesh, and before I start that, I want to have some indication whether the Tamil Nadu one was properly done. Query: is it usual to have someone request that a particular editor do a GA review?) Hope this isn't too much to ask, but if you're busy, I understand. Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 17:28, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Mmmmm...I find it difficult to do a second opinion on other peoples' reviews. Very often they're not the review that I would have done, which doesn't necessarily make them wrong or bad, but it can make it hard to critique them objectively. Tamil Nadu is also a subject that's doubly out of my comfort zone; I don't really edit India articles or top-level state articles.

All that being said, I do think, if I were doing your review, I might have been more detailed with leaving comments. The majority of the review is focused on calling out sourcing - mainly dead link fixing and some formatting nitpicks, with a few content-based spot checks. Spot checks are great, don't change that, but GA reviewing requires more than just fixing sources. You mentioned seeing grammatical errors and actual sentence structure problems, but said they were out of scope for GA. They're not; the criteria explicitly says "the prose is clear, concise, and understandable" and "spelling and grammar are correct". It's true that the prose isn't expected to be as crisp as at the FA level, but genuine errors are still a problem.

There's nothing wrong with asking a particular person to do a GA review, as long as a proper review is conducted and there's no rubber-stamping from the reviewer or pressure from the nom. (Mind you, if someone asks and you're not prepared to do a review, it's perfectly fine to say no.) ♠PMC♠ (talk) 06:10, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, that's helpful! Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 14:53, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DYK queue promotions

I see you promoted three prep sets to queue in a span of a minute and a half and didn't note any issues with any of the hooks. It usually takes me about a half hour to do one set and it's rare that I don't find something to complain about. Forgive me if this is an impertinent question, but are you sure you're giving the review process the full rigor it deserves? RoySmith (talk) 14:14, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a fair question. I give the preps I'm thinking of promoting a scan beforehand, then hit post all at once. It's possible I don't scrutinize to the extent that you do, and certainly possible that I'm less picky about things, for better or for worse. I'm also, to be honest, less vocal about hooks I'm not sure about than I probably should be - I often give those prep sets a pass rather than going to WT:DYK. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 21:47, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Really? really.

Yes, really. Literally you gave no reason for undoing my edit of adding a GIF to the Running other than asking if "really?". The article is about running, "a method of terrestrial locomotion by which humans and other animals move rapidly on foot", not just the sport running. So when you were asking me if I really meant to add that GIF -- yes, I meant it, because the article lacks examples of normal people running. Normal people can be anyone, not just athletes or runners as the article shows. That is why, I added the GIF. The GIF shows the gait and upper body movement of a female human body as she runs. While no clear explanation of why my edit was removed, I bring forth an explanation of my part -- which I might add was in good faith. Did you assume good faith from my part? Thank you, I hope this explains the reasons behind my actions. Cheers. TepeyacPilgrim (talk) 19:03, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a gif of a chick with huge tits, apparently wearing no bra, breasting boobily down the street. Are you seriously, with a straight face, trying to tell me you added it for purely educational reasons? And that there's no other gif which might better illustrate the mechanics of upper body movement while running? ♠PMC♠ (talk) 19:39, 2 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

FAC review

I really enjoyed reading your review of the Singapore MRT station -- having just completed my own review it was like being in a writing workshop to see your notes appear only an hour or two after mine. I wasn't thinking about opposing, though perhaps I should have been; but what really struck me was that I agreed with a lot of your points and then wondered why I hadn't made those points myself. Anyway, I hope you don't mind the random post, but I think your comments were spot on and have made me want to be more precise in my own reviewing. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 01:24, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mind at all, in fact I'm flattered you took the time to say this. I read your comments as I was going through and found myself in agreement with the majority of what you said. One thing I find FAC doesn't often touch on - and which is weirdly important to me and I wish it would come up more in my own FACs - is flow and organization. I often comment on this at FAC and I'm never sure if I'm just being neurotic. Conversely, I often find myself looking at my articles and thinking the order feels wrong, but I never get comments in that direction so I'm never sure if it actually is flowing fine or if it's just that no one noticed. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 04:08, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree; I try to comment on flow and organization myself, but when one has a lot of sentence level comments it can be hard to pull away and look at the article at a higher level. Sometimes I'll wait till everything I've commented on is resolved and then read through again, now looking for the higher level issues.

TFA

Thank you today for The Girl Who Lived in the Tree, introduced: "After the death of his frenemy Isabella Blow, Alexander McQueen took a month-long trip to India to process his grief. The result was The Girl Who Lived in the Tree, a wildly imaginative and critically beloved collection that smashes together imagery of the British monarchy with the culture of India during the British Raj through the story of a fairy tale about a feral girl who becomes a princess. It's a joyous collection that's rightfully remembered as one of his best."! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 12:09, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fashion article Wishi

Greetings, Today when I de-orphaned this article I thought you may be interested in this one. I added links at both Fashion, See also and at Index of fashion articles.

Help to de-orphan articles.

1. WikiProject Orphanage - working to reduce the article backlog.

2. Wikipedia:Orphan - the complete How-to Guide for Orphaned articles.

» De-orphaning articles is an important aspect of building the web.

For Orphaned articles from September 2024 for the entire month, I focused on de-orphaning many of those instead of the usual oldest articles. Some of the articles were double-tagged, and occasionally 3-orphan-tags. Cheers, JoeNMLC (talk) 14:20, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Joe, while I appreciate that you're thinking of me, I think that was not a great way to de-orphan that article. It's the same kind of inappropriately low-level link on a high-level article that people have been asking you to stop doing for several months now. The top-level article about fashion does not need a link to a dinky fashion app that no longer exists. Imagine if that "See also" section contained every single article within the sphere of fashion. That would be tens of thousands of "See also" entries. You can see why that would be completely unhelpful, right?

If there was an article like fashion app or list of fashion-related apps, then it would have been appropriate to put Wishi there, but not at a top-level article about the whole concept of fashion. When you encounter this kind of junk article, it's better to check if it's even notable first before bothering to de-orphan it, and if it's not, either nominate it for deletion or leave it for someone who's comfortable doing that. When I searched it, the Wishi app that our article describes is so non-notable that the name was reused for a different app in 2019. I've nominated it for deletion.

If you still can't understand why you need to stop linking low-level articles from high-level topics, it might be better for you to stop de-orphaning entirely. I get the sense from the numerous messages on your talk page that eventually someone will get frustrated with you and take you to ANI. I would rather not see you go through that, so please, from the bottom of my heart, I am begging you to change the way you're going about things. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 00:01, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much for taking the time to explain about low-level vs. high-level articles. I always thought articles to be equal so okay to add a link (like building the encyclopedia) to de-orphan. For now, I will go back to "Community portal", Help out section, as there is so more variety of things to do there. Thanks for your advice & insights.

Not Nonmetal

Rather than reverting your edit of the redirect Non metal, let me explain. The page Nonmetal only discusses the elements. The page Nonmetallic materials refers, to quote from the 1st line "to materials which are not metals" which is what "non metal" is. Why the names are so confused...that is a different issue of WP:1AM which does not matter here. Ldm1954 (talk) 21:59, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

N.B., if you really, really want I will be OK (but not excited) by making it a redirect to Nonmetal (disambiguation). Please note that I am not the "1", that is the person who insists on a Nonmetal being only for the elements despite various attempts by about half a dozen editors to move him.

N.B., of course Non-metal is the same. Ldm1954 (talk) 22:05, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not an expert in this kind of thing, but to me as a layperson, it doesn't make a lick of sense for the words "non metal" to redirect to anything other than "nonmetal". That's the article I was looking for. Nonmetal is a longstanding article that gets 21k views monthly. Nonmetallic material is a relatively new article that appears to be trying to cover a bunch of ideas about "stuff that isn't metal" into one article, and it gets 500 views monthly. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 23:00, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, you have it the wrong way around. The article 'Nonmetallic material should be renamed as "Nonmetal", as it is the correct useage in 21st century science.

The term "non metal" is used for elements when teaching high school chemistry Nonmetallic material#Periodic table elements. In the rest of science (including chemistry) it refers to Nonmetallic material#General definition or sometimes Nonmetallic material#Functional definition, while there is a historical anomaly with Nonmetallic material#Nonmetals in astronomy, Wikipedia should never be a populist vote, it should be NPOV and follow the accepted science as an encyclopedia. The page Nonmetallic material covers everything as NPOV, so should be "Nonmetal"; at worst the disambiguation page should be used. The current Nonmetal should be Nonmetallic element.

Please note the tag at the top of Nonmetal about the sources that are not verified. If you want to understand more, please look at Talk:Nonmetal, WP:1AM, many editors. So far the "1" has outlasted the "M" who have got fed up and moved on.

As I said, I am OK with a compromise if we redirect to the disambiguation but not to Nonmetal. Ldm1954 (talk) 23:32, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the talk page there looks like a bloody mess, and I'm not remotely qualified to wade in. But again, from a lay reader's perspective, it makes no sense for an internal Wikipedia redirect to refer "non metal" and "non-metal" to something other than "nonmetal". If and when you get the article scopes settled properly, then by all means it would make sense to retarget them. But given the way things stand, if I'm looking for "nonmetal", variant renderings of the word should take me to nonmetal, not to some other article. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 23:52, 8 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Socratic method (apologies, I like it). Which of the following is a "nonmetal"?

Paper, wood, glass, pizza, table salt, titanium nitride? Ldm1954 (talk) 00:03, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ldm1954 why not just take this to WP:RFD? That would probably get a more solid consensus than a discussion on someone's talkpage. Elli (talk | contribs) 00:15, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Elli. Ldm1954, I've said above at least twice that I'm not competent to argue about the contents of the page. My argument is purely from a reader-utility perspective, which suggests that redirects should target the most obvious target. Please make the RFD and I'll be happy to say so there rather than playing silly games. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 00:21, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The definition of "Nonmetal" has already been there, and met the same 1AM.

Being blunt, I no longer care enough about this to fight you. Your edit is wrong. Wikipedia has a bad reputation for science inaccuracy which some of the professionals have tried to change, but sometimes we run against a wall. To quote Johnjbarton from the talk page (another editor who has moved on):

Everything that I have found points to the same conclusion: there is no such term as "the nonmetals" except in the narrow sense of "elements which are not metals". The nonmetals are not, in any source I have read, a category like "halogens" or "transition metals" or "lanthanides". See for example,

Fluck, E.. "New notations in the periodic table" Pure and Applied Chemistry, vol. 60, no. 3, 1988, pp. 431-436. https://doi.org/10.1351/pac198860030431

Of course I cannot provide a reference to show that a non-thing like non-metals is not a thing! There are refs that use "nonmetals" for the category of elements listed here, but this is not chemistry but simply logic: many elements share the property of being metals, the rest are thus "nonmetals". The only common property is exactly one: not being a metal.

There isn't a history for the term "nonmetal" because it is not a thing. The closest we get is the current discussion, which I've fixed up the refs for. In the earliest days, "nonmetals" was a "Type" before elements were more broadly understood. My claims can be easily refuted with a reference and maybe there are a few but it's not a mainstream concept beyond a logical category. I've done what I can here. Ldm1954 (talk) 00:52, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You know buddy, maybe that other guy isn't the only person in that discussion who can't listen, considering that none of your responses have taken a single thing I've said into account. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 01:13, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have read what you said and offered a compromise; as against you reverting without discussion on a topic which you have stated you don't know much. Not being rude, but being rigorous; to make a value judgement expertise and/or reading and researching the topic matters. I quoted one of the other editors to refute your argument, which you have ignored.

A quote from a second editor, Double sharp, you can find the context:

What we have here is a lie-to-children simplification of the real definition, since you cannot explain all of this to people first seeing the periodic table without most of their heads exploding: and I think it is somewhat of a mistake to treat it as an actual, independent definition.

There are more, some are much less polite. Ldm1954 (talk) 02:03, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please take this to RFD. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 02:18, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TFA October

Thank you today for The Birds (Alexander McQueen collection), introduced: "For his fifth collection, Alexander McQueen presented The Birds, a collection inspired by the Hitchcock film of the same name. Where a lesser designer might have been satisfied with aping Tippi Hedren's classy dresses and pencil skirts, McQueen chose sex and violence: gratuitous nudity, tire tracks, and dead white eyes. Desperately poor, he was courting controversy in an effort to attract financial backing, and it worked. Although it was his next collection, Highland Rape, that made him a star, The Birds is a work of macabre genius that deserves recognition in its own right."! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:48, 9 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
