DYK review

A while ago you reviewed a DYK of mine on revolutionary movement, that after some discussion was falling under a radar. I now have another DYK that seems to have slipped from the front lines, could you perhaps look at it? It's the Template:Did you know nominations/International Sociological Association. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 16:41, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Nomination of The Code (band) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The Code (band) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Code (band) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Northamerica1000^(talk) 07:46, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Carabinieri, new to this but noticed your post from 2007 seeking more information on Battle of Tarnawka in early-mid September 1914. Have you identified more detail re this. Some references in a 2010 diary - "War Diary of My Prussian Grandfather" Kurt Asimis, ISBN 13: 9780981329406. I am trying to track history of my German grandfather who is likely to have been captured by the Russians around this time and location. Beuthner (talk) 10:48, 28 January 2013 (UTC)Beuthner

DYK prep set assembly

Carabinieri, I noticed that you shifted about the prep sets overnight, while constructing your own. I wanted to let you know why I was undoing some of your shifts.

First, I try to tailor sets so that all if not most of the hooks will be seen during the day of the local country. So I try to avoid U.S. hooks in a set, like prep 2, which will eventually run during the U.S. overnight hours. At most, I'd use one; in this case, I had zero, and now there are two.

Second, I try to list the more impressive articles earlier, unless they happen to be ideal for the quirky slot. So the unimpressive "cultural homogenization" hook, which was inserted into a second slot, will be moving much later in the set.

Third, I'm pretty strict about not running two bios in a row. I'm puzzled as to why you have rearranged things so that you have two writer bios in a row in prep 3, but one of them will be moving back to prep 2.

I will try to make sure the arts and sports hooks are properly spread out when I'm done. I'm happy to discuss this further. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 15:07, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

There was a discussion about whether or not to try to run hooks during the day hours of the country they deal with back in 2007 (Wikipedia_talk:Did_you_know/Archive_18#Priority_articles_take_2) and it was pretty much rejected. In any case, the current guideline is also to try and spread hooks about the same country around, particularly articles about the U.S., which there tend to be a lot of. I generally try to move the unimpressive hooks to the middle of the set (generally I feel that we shouldn't use them at all), but I thought the one about cultural homogenization was better than most. I don't see why two bios shouldn't be next to each other since that is a fairly weak similarity as opposed to them being about the same country or both being about sports or art, etc. For example, since you swapped the hooks, PREP2 now contains two hooks about music, while PREP3 doesn't have any.--Carabinieri (talk) 15:32, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

I didn't move any music hooks—centerless grinding and Noureddine Aba were swapped with cultural homogenization and Jami Floyd—and I'm not sure I'd count Mai as one, since it's a film and only tangentially about music (the star of the film had previously been a singer rather than an actress). Two bios in a row is specifically listed as to be avoided in WP:DYKSG#J4: "Try to avoid having two hooks of the same general type next to one another in the update (for example, two US hooks or two bio hooks together)." Since bios (or US hooks) should never be more than half of the total, it's not hard to keep them separated, especially with seven hooks and a maximum of three bios as now.

With all things being equal, I do like to try not to bury a hook when it won't be seen. The proportion of US hooks isn't so high at the moment that we need to run several during US nighttime, though I suspect I've gone further than I need in the other direction. (A lot has changed in DYK since 2007, as best I can determine.) As for the unimpressive articles, we don't have a mechanism for not using ones that have been passed. My philosophy for them is to slot them lower rather than higher, and certainly not in the second spot, which (with the third) I try to keep for those really good articles that don't have an image along with them. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:00, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

For some reason I had Noureddine Aba pegged as music-related in my mind. Oops. I still agree with the overall sentiment voiced in 2007, that people aren't generally more interested in reading about their own country than about others. And if they are, Wikipedia's objective should be to enlighten them about what's happening beyond those borders.--Carabinieri (talk) 16:11, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

It's inevitable that people are going to see hooks about other countries: US gets a maximum of half of a set, which means at least half is from the rest of the world, and other countries get one or maybe two in a single set. I'm looking at it the other way: that people who would most likely be interested in a hook are unlikely to get a chance to see it if it runs when they're asleep. Why should the only New Zealand hook in a week's time run during the country's overnight hours? Why not try to do it during some part of their daytime? BlueMoonset (talk) 17:13, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

(watching) Last week I had three DYK while I was asleep, one causing headaches, - that is another reason to avoid running a hook on a country when that country sleeps, on top of living people liking to see (and have others see) hooks about them in daytime. I agree that 2007 is long ago, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:11, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

I still don't buy into the notion that people are more interested in hooks about the country they live in, which is what you're both assuming. I'm also not certain people generally write about the country they live in - I often don't.

I don't try to sell that. - We had a problem with Kreuzschule (assumed copy-vio, which wasn't), that I could have easily solved in a minute, whereas a different editor spent hours. So perhaps it's worth looking if a main contributor will we awake, --Gerda Arendt (talk) 15:31, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Did you know/Removed

Carabinieri, I'm guessing that the Removed page wasn't around when you were last active on DYK. Basically, every promoted hook that is manually removed from a prep area, queue, or the main page DYK section should be noted here, including the reason it was pulled back. I've just added the Christina Maranci page; if there have been any others, please add them. (Note that this doesn't involve hooks swapped between prep areas or prep and queue, just ones that have been removed altogether, usually involving the reversal of a template promotion.) Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:12, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. The reason I hadn't listed the nomination on the Removed page is that I hd promoted it only very briefly and didn't feel much damage had been done. Anyway, thanks for straightening that out for me.--Carabinieri (talk) 09:25, 22 February 2013 (UTC)

DYK Hook for Albert Stevens

Note: This is for DYK that is about to go live. (In Queue 5 Template:Did_you_know/Queue)

I wonder if there is still time to edit the hook for Albert Stevens? There was a lot of discussion and hashing out of the hook originally, but it seems a bit hard to parse in its current form. This is semantics perhaps.

Current:

• ... that for a Manhattan Project experiment Albert Stevens was secretly injected with what was expected to be a lethal dose of plutonium, and paid for providing samples of his urine and feces?

How about this:

• ... that during a Manhattan Project experiment, Albert Stevens was paid for providing samples of his urine and feces after he received a secret injection of plutonium?

I think that is more concise, and I added a comma where I think it's needed. Thanks for looking at this and your other work! I like to saw logs! (talk) 03:07, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Template:Did you know nominations/Karsten Whitson

Carabinieri, Gatoclass has suggested a new ALT hook for this one. Since you were the one who objected to the various hook suggestions, can you please vet this one and give it the appropriate icon? Thank you.

I was also hoping to ask you that, when you raise objections to hooks or other matters in a review, that you include the appropriate icon at the beginning of your comment. Otherwise, if you leave the prior approval tick standing, it looks as if you're registering an issue, but that it isn't serious enough that it needs to stop the hook from being promoted, which is a very mixed message if you're saying a hook isn't interesting, a comment that usually means the hook should not be promoted. Another result of the new icon is that the hook will no longer show up in the # Verified column of the List of Hooks by Date table on the queue and nominations pages, so people looking to promote hooks won't waste time looking under a particular date.

Maxwell and Tuke and Template:Did you know nominations/Maxwell and Tuke

I appreciate your efforts.
Not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but maybe we should have a formal Alternate on the DYK before it is closed. Could add — "at the time Britain's two tallest buildings." Just a suggestion?
I would have replied on the nomination page, but it is now closed and I don't want to transgress. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 12:05, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

I don't think more formalities are necessary. Technically, the article doesn't say that those two towers were Britain's tallest buildings at the time. It only says that the first tower was the tallest building when it was built and that the second tower was taller than the first. Another tower, taller than the first, could have been built in between. Unless the article clearly states that the two towers were the country's tallest at the time the second one was and this fact is sourced, I'd be hesitant to add that to the hook.--Carabinieri (talk) 14:49, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

Prep 4 We could add that to the article, but I am well satisified with your work. I was only concerned because some of us at DYK get hung up on procedural niceities, even when they are really superfluous.

I have considerably expanded the article Guerrilla filmmaking and took care in referencing it as far as I could (over 90 links to trustful sources). I am an experienced editor of Wikipedia. For my surprise, the article was reverted by user CIRT to a preceding stub version mainly consisting of a very narrow list of films. Many important contents were removed. Self promotional vandalism seems to be the reason of such intervention, sustained by acute threats. I do not intend to respond with helpless and inconsequent arguments and the time I have to dedicate to Wikipedia is quite limited.

I’d be happy if you could pay some attention to this occurrence and let you decide whatever you think is reasonable.

My best,

Peter Landrock

Hello Carabinieri, I created a page about the Danish cryptographer Peter Landrock under: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Peter_Landrock Landrock was doctoral student under Richard Brauer who's page was created by you. I would appreciate if you could have a look at Peter Landrock's draft page. I will still add some final touches and references (e.g., on his awards). Would you have some suggestions on modifications or additional information for this page? A short comment on the draft page's talk section would be very much appreciated (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft_talk:Peter_Landrock). --ScienceGuard (talk) 14:50, 21 May 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Max Deutsch

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Max Deutsch requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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 removed 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Extended confirmed protection

Hello, Carabinieri. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.

In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:

• Extended confirmed protection may only be used in cases where semi-protection has proven ineffective. It should not be used as a first resort.
• A bot will post a notification at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard of each use. MusikBot currently does this by updating a report, which is transcluded onto the noticeboard.

Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.
This message was sent to the administrators' mass message list. To opt-out of future messages, please remove yourself from the list. 17:48, 23 September 2016 (UTC)

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in more than one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Wikipedia:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFA. This removal of access is procedural only, and not intended to reflect negatively upon you in any way. We wish you the best in future endeavors, and thank you for your past administrative efforts.

Two-Factor Authentication now available for admins

Hello,

Please note that TOTP based two-factor authentication is now available for all administrators. In light of the recent compromised accounts, you are encouraged to add this additional layer of security to your account. It may be enabled on your preferences page in the "User profile" tab under the "Basic information" section. For basic instructions on how to enable two-factor authentication, please see the developing help page for additional information. Important: Be sure to record the two-factor authentication key and the single use keys. If you lose your two factor authentication and do not have the keys, it's possible that your account will not be recoverable. Furthermore, you are encouraged to utilize a unique password and two-factor authentication for the email account associated with your Wikimedia account. This measure will assist in safeguarding your account from malicious password resets. Comments, questions, and concerns may be directed to the thread on the administrators' noticeboard.

A new user right for New Page Patrollers

Hi Carabinieri.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.

It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.

If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

Rocker German sources

Hey, would you still have copies of the German sources you added to Rudolf Rocker? Wanted to check the citations (see recent edit history re: challenged statements) czar 06:59, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

@Carabinieri, unwatching this page now but please do {{ping}} if you have these sources available czar 16:23, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

@Czar: Sorry for not getting back to you earlier. You caught me while I was away from Wikipedia. I don't have the sources right now (I got them all from the library). I was planning on doing a little more work on the Rocker article eventually, but only once I get done with a few other projects. I'll get the sources again then. Were you referring to these challenged statements? It's been a long time since I added that, but I'm pretty sure those claims are backed up by the sources.--Carabinieri (talk) 23:45, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks, just wanted to check. Let me know if you need a reader when you get around to the article czar 00:07, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

Yep, for posterity, looks like you added those claims [1] [2], so they should show up in the current source czar 00:24, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ludwig Baumann

The article Ludwig Baumann has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. » Shadowowl | talk 09:30, 24 July 2018 (UTC)

Organized labour project

Hi - I noticed you are one of the original members of the organized labour project. I'm contacting active original members as the project has fallen inactive of late and have a couple of thoughts of getting things moving again:

• redesign of the project page using the new project x tool - some examples here Wikipedia:WikiProject_X/Dashboard
• trying to identify editors to focus on regional levels - esp. Africa, MENA and Asia
• start a newsletter
• targeted work on gender and unions (eg seeking support from projects on women, feminism, making women blue etc)
• generalised encouragement of editors involved (eg a Stakhanovite barnstar...not being completely facetious)
