Hi, I'm from the Netherlands and Forum for Democracy isn't a far right party at all, please look at their point of view on https://forumvoordemocratie.nl/standpunten Forum for Democracy is also member of the European ECR Party that isn't far right at all. I would consider partys like the AfD, Front National and for example the Brazilian president Bolsonaro as far-right. Why do you see them as a far-right party?

Hi there anon, I don't make any judgements. I did some checking on what are you on about, and see that I made a revert on page you mentioned.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Anya chalotra. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Anya Chalotra. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Anya Chalotra. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, 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, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Sophiajoanne 04:49, 28 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made: you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Frood 06:19, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I will once again ask how providing context for Duke being a top 10 university within the US is any different than being a top 20 university worldwide. That is not puffery, POV, nor COI.

Kundan Ravindra Dhayade, Thanks for letting me know. There are hundreds of thousands of articles with little to no references, and it may not be always worthwhile to keep adding unreferced or refimprove templates. For cast section, typically citations are not required. 10 citations for a movie are not bad, so I don't think that refimprove at the beginning is needed. I'll take a look. Thanks.

Hi GreaterPonce665. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! bibliomaniac15 02:22, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I had written that I had sourced my rationale for deletion of sections of the article on SHC014-COV. It looks like you saw those and reverted the article back to my edits. I appreciate it. The article was previously in clear violation of WP:Original Research. The news articles from RT, FoxNews and The Guardian never mentioned SHC014-COV, or that it could be the parental virus. And one of their sources explicitly discounts the possibility (ironically enough). Articles about coronaviruses need to be watched carefully, as people adding blurbs like the deleted one is becoming commonplace. ComradeScientist (talk) 03:38, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Doug Weller talk 15:24, 30 April 2020 (UTC) [reply]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

A community discussion has authorised the use of general sanctions for pages related to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
The specific details of these sanctions are described here.

Broadly, general sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimise disruption in controversial topic areas. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to these topics that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behaviour, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. An editor can only be sanctioned after he or she has been made aware that general sanctions are in effect. This notification is meant to inform you that sanctions are authorised in these topic areas, which you have been editing. Before continuing to edit pages in these topic areas, please familiarise yourself with the general sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions.

Doug Weller talk 17:25, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

With regards to your problematic revert, see WP:BMB, which says that all edits of a blocked sock can be removed for the reason alone that it was made by a sockpuppet. Fact that you restored the problematic section shunned by WP:NOCRIT would make you responsible for any of the content that was being added there. "He was criticised for spreading fake news" is not even supported by the source. What criticism? Be careful with editing in these subjects given you have been notified of sanctions already above which are active in this area. Aman Kumar Goel ^(Talk) 13:11, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Aman.kumar.goel, I agree with your revert here; wasn't aware for WP:BMB policy. I still believe the content belongs there, albeit with a more neutral tone. About the notice part, hundreds of editors have it - you also have it on your talk page - so no need to insinuate anything here. GreaterPonce665 (talk) 13:14, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I was only reminding because many editors ignore the sanctions. I don't see why the content should be added. Sure he made a comment which created a kind of reception but it does not represent his career or significantly affects his image. If every comment of these people have been analyzed on Wikipedia then the page would become too big in no time, contrary to WP:INDISCRIMINATE. Aman Kumar Goel ^(Talk) 13:49, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Please familiarize yourself with other university pages. Forbes, US News, and the Wall Street Journal produce the most credible and widely read rankings in the US. There is nothing "cherry picked" about these sources. The line about Duke being a top 10 school deserves to be featured prominently in the lede. Particularly when other schools of similar caliber have all this fluff about being among "the most prestigious universities in the world" in their ledes. If you have a problem with it being in the lede, open it up to the community for resolution. Please don't edit the article without the input of others. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.74.237.226 (talk) 22:43, 10 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, sorry but I still don't understand. The edits look to me like a simple copy edit. They've fixed grammar, punctuation, wording, etc. No significant material was added or removed. There are maybe a couple of mistakes and some changes in wording that are a bit pointless, but overall it looks like an improvement. The IP has been copy-editing a lot of articles, again with some small problems and typos, but generally looks constructive and helpful. Maybe you could take another look? --IamNotU (talk) 12:01, 14 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

You are the expert, but you may want to consider that my addition to the Wikipedia bio that cited Dr. Brown's quote did cite my book "In the President's Secret Service." The Washington Post obit which the Wikipedia bio cites as a source considered the quote significant enough to include it, so an outside source--namely the Washington Post--did consider it important. In addition, since you asked why the quote is relevant, the Washington Post obit said, "In Washington, Dr. Brown became an authority on political psychiatry, focusing on individual leadership qualities, group dynamics, political strategy and tactics to achieve policy goals, especially when it came to the occupier of the White House." But I respectfully bow to your expertise and hope this additional info may be helpful!

I think the other sentence mentioned here - "In Washington, Dr. Brown became an authority on political psychiatry, focusing on individual leadership qualities, group dynamics, political strategy and tactics to achieve policy goals, especially when it came to the occupier of the White House." - is much better suited for addition to the article. Previously I was not sure it alone was worthy enough quote to be included in a start-class article (per WP:DUE). Personal perspective quote is definitely a plus, and with this new WaPo quote, I'm not opposed to its addition anymore. Thanks. GreaterPonce665 ^(TALK) 18:35, 25 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, We have been seeing an increased number of vandalism on Devendra Fadnavis Wikipedia page. The recent edit was undone by you, for which we are really grateful. The page was put on partial protection which expired on the 18th of May. During the protection period the act of vandalism ceased but as soon as the protection period was over the vandalism restarted. You may go through the edit history to merit the given accusation.

We would be obliged if the page was placed on permanent protection to ensure that these acts of vandalism cease forever and only those who have been registered, verified, and active on Wikipedia, make suitable changes to the aforementioned page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FSCOPC (talk • contribs) 11:00, 26 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

In reference to my recent edit to Multicast DNS, you said: "you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary".

But my edit included a summary: "remove unsupported Android claim, as the link is about DNS-SD, not mDNS".

Can you explain why you consider this inadequate?

It's a link to a page describing a different technology than the Wikipedia article is about -- DNS-SD, rather than mDNS. I tried to find another webpage which supported the claim that Android supports mDNS, and I couldn't find a clear answer. Android seems to include some parts of an mDNS implementation, but it's not part of the standard DNS lookup mechanism.

In any event, the link provided did not in any way support the claim it was attached to. The page is dead today, but I looked it up on archive.org (2017, when the article says it was retrieved), and the page doesn't contain the word "multicast" or "mDNS" at all.

Hello GreaterPonce665. While reviewing your request for the pending changes reviewer permission, I encountered the following reverts that you made using the rollback feature: [2][3]. Please be more careful when using rollback to revert edits. Generally, the rollback button should only be used to revert obvious vandalism, and the two edits that I mentioned above do not appear to be obvious vandalism. Use of rollback for purposes other than those listed at the rollback guideline is likely to be considered misuse and can result in removal of the permission, since rollback leaves a generic edit summary that may be discouraging to good-faith users or new editors who may not be familiar with Wikipedia's policies. Instead of rollback, I would use a different tool like the undo button or Twinkle, as that allows you to save a more descriptive edit summary. Thanks, Mz7 (talk) 22:50, 12 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

HI, saw your comment on Ramdev page. There were two major edits, and for both of them, citation is given Firstly, there was a wrong information, Karanveer is shown as Guru, which he is not, he is just a friend. I have added a news paper citation for the same. A friend, who later left. 2. If you are familiar with Ramdev, his close associate is Balkrisha and Pradummn, it is was important to mention where they met. that was the second edit.

Hi there, My previous rollback was for lack of reputable citations; that issue has not been cleared; please refrain from re-adding material without citing reputable 3rd party sources; Ramdev's own website is not a reliable source. GreaterPonce665 ^(TALK) 17:05, 16 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The statements do not come under WP:UNDUE at all, all viewpoints are fairly represented by the various reputed historians. It is just a fact of history that Aurangzeb failed to subdue the Marathas and died in 1707 being hemmed in from all sides by the Marathas. The statements be left as it is, as it enhances the article.

So according to you/Wikipedia anti Hindu leftist news sources are so called "Neutral Sources" and Pro Hindu News Sources are "unreliable" sources!? The same "Neutral Sources" who refer rightist media as "Communal or Violent"... The same Neutral sources who spread false propaganda through Wikipedia "beginning on 23 February and caused chiefly by Hindu mobs attacking Muslims."2020_Delhi_riots THIS IS BLATANT FALSE PROPAGANDA!! Either Wikipedia doesn't have the correct system for coping with false news/sources Or the entire Wikipedia is a blatant leftist propaganda Source promoting radical ideologies against a certain groups of religions. If this is the case then no one is stopping a "reliable" source from mentioning Pakistan as the World's safest place and India as a terrorist hub!!

Updating the universities Rankings info-box to include QS: USA rankings

Hello GreaterPonce665, Looking over your talk page I can see that you are more adept at editing than I am. I have made several unsuccessful attempts to edit the universities rankings info-box to incorporate the QS:USA ranking. Their international rankings are already included. The US ranking is new (The 2020 ranking is their first for the US.) Given QS's stature, I thought it appropriate to incorporate their US rankings.

Thank you for your time - and you help if you can provide some. Wrrsimone (talk) 18:51, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Wrrsimone:, I would advice you to try making your case on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Higher education. A discussion must take place for inclusion/updates to the rankings box. Hope this helps. Thanks. GreaterPonce665 ^(TALK) 18:58, 1 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello GreaterPonce665,

I am adding citations for the content I have added to the concerned page. It took some time since the information is a bit old. Please rest assured that the information is from a reliable source.

You removed my citations (Those were hard to find!) and restored the version. I gave citations for every section but without even checking you reverted the templates saying that it wasn't constructive. When you don't even check citations before reverting is not "constructive". The personal life section was incomplete and vague. DO NOT RESTORE PREVIOUS VERSION. — Preceding unsigned comment added by VedikaThorat (talk • contribs) 11:43, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear GreaterPonce665,

Today I did ask this question in Live Chat for help. One of the member YellowDurian78 (Pseudo name I suppose) guided me.
YellowDurian78 asked my name & my reply was "Vishal Kamlesh Gohel is my name & the birth year is 1985 which is reflecting in my profile name". YellowDurian78 replied that you are not Vikram Gaikwad then. Write to GreaterPonce665 on his user page with signature.
If this was the roadblock for my profile to be addressed as WP:GNG then I assure that my name is Vishal Kamlesh Gohel.
Requesting to remove my name from Vikram Gaikwad page and undo the changes. I will improve my edits going forward. Thank you very much in advanced. VKG1985 (Talk | E-Mail | Contrib) 12:21, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Dear GreaterPonce665, please check the Vikram Gaikwad article as I have added 61 more references/citations (from 7 to 68). If that is fine, then I have also passed the WP:GNG which was the second question/update you have asked. Please remove my name from the page once everything seems to be fine with you and let me know once it is done. VKG1985 (Talk | E-Mail | Contrib) 13:22, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I can't remove anyones names from the page history if that's what you are asking me. I'm still puzzled by your keen interest in promoting this particular person. Why? Btw, almost all of these 'references' are either tangential or non-reputable. No WP:SIGCOV. GreaterPonce665 ^(TALK) 13:39, 21 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks GreaterPonce665 for responding to my message. Instead of Hi there, if you could address adding username it would be good. So that I can get a notification as well.

Now, let me again clarify the things again:

• I can't remove anyone's names from the page history if that's what you are asking me -> I know this & asking to remove my username from WP:PROD message.
• I'm still puzzled by your keen interest in promoting this particular person. Why? -> I don't have any keen interest in that page. The reason for adding more details was because of PROD message which says If you can address this concern by improving, copyediting, sourcing, renaming, or merging the page, please edit this page and do so. I have already told you that Vikram Gaikwad is a make-up artist & there will be a lack of notable sources. Which is my mistake & I agree to it.
• Btw, almost all of these 'references' are either tangential or non-reputable. -> I was waiting for your response, meanwhile I was trying to get as many articles as I can. Every article has 1 liner regarding this artist & I know it is not sufficient. That's why was asking to REMOVE/UNDO my edits.

My concern is to remove my username from PROD message without any side effect (deleting a page is not the solution because it takes a good amount of time to construct it)

If you are satisfied with my clarifications, let us resolve this issue by guiding me the further process. -- VKG1985 (Talk | E-Mail | Contrib) 10:30, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I did not make any changes to Dhananjay Munde article. I simply asked the editor why he removed a link. As it was a healthy discussion. You seem to have personal ties with this particular page because I didn't even write a single word and you sent me a warning. So now I think you don't appear rational in this process. I am reporting this as I think you are trying to discourage other people from editing on this page. You are establishing ownership and threatening people directly with warnings. Do not spam my talk page. I am reporting the concerned page to the administration board as it is having so many issues. Let them decide. I do not wish to engage in what seems like a coop.

Hi GreaterPonce665! I've noticed you updating the endowments of a bunch of colleges. I was curious, how are you going about inputting the data into AWB? At some point, I'd love to get education data (including also things like student body sizes) added automatically to Wikidata and infoboxes updating regularly relying on it. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 05:29, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Sdkb:, I must confess, my use of AWB is pretty rudimentary and I have no programming skills. However for routine edits I find AWB much smoother to use over the web interface. AWB is not ideal when there are multiple sources for multiple pages. Here's a brief rundown of how I use it:

1) I downloaded the excel data sheet from NACUBO release page and wrote down the reference in a separate text file.

2) In excel, I copied over "uni name" and "2020 endowment" columns to a new sheet. On that new sheet, I made a third column to "modified uni name" (more on this later) and fourth column which concatenates $, endowment value, and the reference (from text file)

3) Instead of opening each uni page on web browser, AWB can help with opening them from a list. AWB can make list using categories, but there's no satisfactory cat. to use here, so I make my own list. The "modified uni name" column in excel looks something like # [[:La Salle University]] which can be made by concatenating text with "uni name" column. Once the modified list is populated, I copy it to a txt file (which can be loaded in AWB).

4) Set the edit summary and make other minor changes if needed. List of colleges is on left, and only thing that needs to change is the endowment. For each edit, copy over fourth column from excel and command+S.

I know, this might not be best summary, but hope it helps. Thanks. GreaterPonce665 ^(TALK) 20:17, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, that makes sense, yeah. It still seems like a pretty manual way to do it, so I hope we find something better at some point. If we figure out how to import the Excel into Wikidata, we could just change the endowment line to ${{#expr: ({{Wd|property|raw|P6589}} / 10^9) round 3 }} billion ({{YEAR|{{Wd|qualifier|P6589|P585}}}}){{Wd|references|linked|P6589}} on every page and it'd draw from Wikidata. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 22:34, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Sdkb:, you are correct about edits being mostly manual. I've not used to wiki-data so can't help there, but that sure sounds interesting. Thanks. GreaterPonce665 ^(TALK) 23:12, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Sdkb: I have done it. I have successfully used OpenRefine to add 2022 & 2021 NACUBO endowment data to wikidata (entire excel sheet worth; & Fall 2021 enrollment numbers as well).

Thank you for your efforts to update endowment amounts. I have made similar updates for several years. The NACUBO report is a great source, but in the case of Lamar University, I think the reported amount understates Lamar's total endowment. Lamar University has two endowment funds. The smaller fund of around $26 million named "Lamar University" is included in the NACUBO report. The larger endowment fund totaling $104,596,587 as of August 31, 2020 is named "Lamar University Foundation" Note:See page 156 of the linked Board Materials for the December 7, 2020 Texas State University System Quarterly Board Meeting.Texas State University System December 7, 2020 meeting materials If you want to click through, the pdf source can be found on the Texas State University System website linked here: Texas State University System Board Meetings Calendar

The Lamar University Foundation fund is not included in the NACUBO report, but is included in the $128.5 million endowment total reported by US News and World Report. https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/lamar-university-3581 Except for the past few years both endowment funds were included in the NACUBO report. I used the NACUBO number in years past to update endowment totals. That is actually my preferred source, but I discontinued using NACUBO for Lamar when I noticed both endowment funds were no longer included in the report. I hope after understanding the current inaccuracy, you will reconsider your February 21 edit and revert it back to the amount reported by US News and World Report.

I believe continuing to use the NACUBO reported amount presents an incomplete picture. I attempted to note the reason for using the US News and World Report number instead in my January 24, 2021 edit. Here's a quote of my edit notes. "Update endowment using US News and World Reports amount. Lamar has two endowments. The NACUBO report only includes the smaller endowment, Lamar University. The larger endowment is with the Lamar University Foundation. Excluding the foundation amount grossly understates the amount. USNews and World Report is a common source." I believe the correct amount should be reported. For Lamar, I don't think the correct amount is currently being reported if one relies solely on the NACUBO report until the NACUBO report once again includes both endowment funds for the university.

for reporting User:ArkaRana at the edit-warring noticeboard. I was starting to regret adding a source to prevent the article being deleted. Usually if I point out that even Jesus and Muhammad don't have honorifics in their article titles people take notice, but in this case it seems that that editor thinks that MLA is more important than either of them so has to have his "Dr." in the title.

Hello GreaterPonce665,it' been awhile. Regarding school rankings, as far as I can tell the last time Forbes published its "America's Top Colleges List" was in 2019. When googled, the links returned suggest that Forbes has deferred drawing up such lists to US News. In fact, they make reference to the US New's national rankings under their own name. If this is the case, should they continue to be one of the organizations whose national rankings are "automatically" included in the Academic Rankings info box? Has anybody else notice this?

This regarding Gora Khumbar Page. On the page it is mentioned that Gora Kumbhar is Khumbar/potter by trade. It write wording should be he was Khumbar a Shudra caste by birth and tradition. Kumhar are called Kumbhar in Marathi language. As per this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kumhar is caste belong to Shudra Varna. In India Caste system was very prominent and they would only do profession as per their caste. So there is nothing wrong to mention it in the doc. In the movie also it shown that he married to Khumbar women so it was not only his profession but also his caste. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aminbal (talk • contribs) 18:59, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kumbhar is cast. The caste is in his name. It is very part of Indian society. Do we need a book of foreign author to say it. We can rephrase the statement.

@Aminbal: Kumbhar is a profession. As you say there's already a mention of him being a potter (i.e. Kumbhar) on the page. So, if you are insistent on adding a caste, then bring a WP:RS. As for the western author's validation question, I never said I won't accept reputed Indian authors. Kiran_891 ^(TALK) 21:19, 5 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Kumbhar is profession as well as caste. Gora Khumbar was born in 12th century. Back in 12th century India was caste based society and people followed the profession which came by their caste. The people belong to Khumbar Caste only did the pottery work that's the way society was organized. He is famous as Gora Khumbar because of his caste. My friends who belong to Khumbar caste celebrate his appearance day. If you study Varkari school of philosophy the famous people are Sena Nhavi (Barber), Santa Mali ( Flower trader), Gora Khumbar (Potter), Namedev (Shimpi). These are all belong to Shudra castes but they are worshiped because of their devotion. Another message they bring is social unity. Although they belong to low caste they are worshipable. I hope you understand the larger discourse and message why these people were promoted and remembered by history even after 800 years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aminbal (talk • contribs) 01:53, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The first sentence of the page "Sant Gora Kumbhar (also known as Goroba) was a Hindu sant associated with the Bhakti movement and the Varkari sect of Maharashtra. He was a potter by trade and devotee of Vithal" is https://books.google.com/books?id=yriGbWNAF5EC&pg=PA188#v=onepage&q&f=false If you read the page properly it states "Contrary to the the orthodox bhraminical traditions that despised craftsmans were low caste". The reference mentions several low caste saints and also their caste. The word used is "profession and membership to Artisan society". I think wikipedia currently mentions only profession. The explicit mention of "membership to artisan society" proves that he was belong Khumbar caste. I think we don't need another reference for that. Current statement ignores "membership to artisan society" which means he belongs to that caste. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aminbal (talk • contribs) 19:26, 6 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There are bad reference links on his page. The Feds have changed the pages or deleted him. I was so looking forward to reading about him.

I am seeking the info of how he obtained his wives as the stories vary. Also, Pomp doesn’t seem to first born as some say. So I am interested. Thank you DrPMO (talk) 23:10, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea who this person is and why are you posting on my talk page. Kiran_891 ^(TALK) 13:31, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I removed your addition per "Per WP:PRESS, this page excludes coverage exclusively on a single WP-article, coverage of (some aspect of) the project overall is wanted." If they were talking about the en-WP article, you could add it at the article talkpage, there's a template for that. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:28, 12 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An article you recently created, Gunaratna Sadavarte, 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.

An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Phillip Geissler and has thus listed it for discussion.

Hi, I noticed that your redirect Katie Thomson (lacrosse) redirects to a redlink. Maybe you'd be able to fix that? I tried to use search but I'm not seeing any relevant results. Clovermoss🍀 (talk) 03:53, 26 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for providing a working link via NARA for one of many NRHP documents that used to be available at a NYS historical department website.

But please let's use the permanent URLs using NARA's reference numbers, e.g. (a) https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75320467, a proper permanent URL of Comstock Buildings NRHP document at National Archives.

As opposed to (b) https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/80004279.pdf, a perhaps-temporary direct URL of Comstock Buildings NRHP document at current storage location.

Have you done many of these? It would be great if you have some efficient way to fix up a whole host of NYS NRHP articles' references. --Doncram (talk,contribs) 00:32, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Doncram: Hi thanks for the message. My edits are limited and I think we agree. I have added the actual link as the url and archive.org link in the archive-url space (and not the AWS link). Let me know if you see any mistakes. Thanks. Kiran_891 ^(TALK) 00:39, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

(EC) Actually you seem to know stuff I don't. I have long been an editor of NRHP articles and have been "fixing" a number of NYS NRHP document references recently. Now I notice that "location=NAID: 7532046" was put in, I think by you, into one or more of the references. That uses the National Archives IDentification number which I have been wanting to use in the URL, as in "url=https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75320467". If that is included then maybe the reference using (b) can be used, and as they are more direct to just the document, perhaps they are better? References of type (a) do work to get you indirectly to the document, but within an outer screen. What do you know about this kind of stuff? Could you be an expert who could help me and other NRHP editors understand what is best to do with these? --Doncram (talk,contribs) 00:44, 24 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Doncram: Yes, I had added the "location=NAID: 7532046" parameter for redundancy reasons. I'm very supportive of your automation initiative but lack technical knowhow on how to do it myself. Even when I wanted to fully utilize Autowikibrowser, I felt inqadequately prepared to use it so I limited my use of it for Univ. endowment updates. User @Sdkb: might have have expertise here, they had plans to automate this annual data. I wonder if it is possible to automate linking of NAID to wikidata and summons it to every article using nrhp infobox? That would surely make process much smoother and accurate. Thanks and good luck. Kiran_891 ^(TALK) 17:13, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Interesting. Add to the mix:

• The "location=NAID: 7532046" seems not compatible with {{cite report}}, which I use in NRHP document references (along with "|type=none" to turn off some unhelpful default display), and which I think is better, technically (whatever that means) than {{cite report}}. An NRHP document really is a report which could be available at multiple URLs from multiple sources or it could be not available online anywhere (and cite report allows it when there is no URL, while cite web does not).
• I think there is a spreadsheet file available with a correspondence between NRHP reference numbers and the NARA NAID numbers, which no one has really noticed and would be key in an automation effort (Yes, at Data downloads webpage for NRHP at the National Park Service, the "Spreadsheet of NRHP Listed properties (listings up to 01/19/2023)" gives "external links" to NARA copies of documents). Which would be extremely useful. And, by the way, putting the NRHP reference number in each reference, like your saving the NAID number, even if not displayed could be very good to do towards supporting future things. E.g. the German language wikipedia is very well automated with respect to covering U.S. National Register of Historic Places (thanks to User:Multichill IIRC ) and that automation relies heavily on NRHP reference numbers. And I believe the extensive German coverage of this area is carried over into other language wikipediae thanks to the same editor/programmer. --Doncram (talk,contribs) 19:23, 25 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kiran891 and Doncram! Having read the discussion here, I'm not sure I fully follow what you're trying to do. Can you walk me through it from the start? Wikidata indeed tracks NRHP reference numbers, e.g. here, so sourcing those would be possible if it'd be helpful. Cheers, {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 05:33, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you added a red link to St. John's Seminary, citing WP:REDYES. However, disambiguation pages are a special case for red links. While you can have a red link, it should only be in a line that includes a blue link that discusses the red-linked topic. You can see more detail on this at MOS:DABRED.

I ask that you review your edit in that light, and consider undoing it. -- Nat Gertler (talk) 16:36, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@NatGertler: Got it. removed red-link on article and added to wikilink to buffalo page. Does this help? Also, there is a red-link on a seminary in New Zealand, is that correct? Thanks. Kiran_891 ^(TALK) 16:48, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is that the Buffalo page doesn't mention St. John's at all, so it doesn't work as a disambiguation entry. In contrast, there's

• St. John's School of Theology-Seminary, College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University in Collegeville, Minnesota

...which works because the Seminary is discussed on the blue linked page. (And you're right, the New Zealand link should also be removed.) --Nat Gertler (talk) 16:55, 9 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article Syracuse University Alma Mater you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Syracuse University Alma Mater for comments about the article, and Talk:Syracuse University Alma Mater/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Just a friendly heads-up in case you weren't already aware, since it's installed on your common.js: Careless use of ReferenceExpander has caused serious problems. It's currently at MFD, and a large cleanup project is underway to repair the citations damaged by the script. I and several other users have !voted that the script be deleted or disabled, and I wouldn't recommend using it at all unless you thoroughly check every reference it modifies against the previous revision. If you're interested in a more detailed explanation of the script's issues, Folly Mox has provided an excellent summary at the MFD. — SamX [talk · contribs] 05:11, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kiran891, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 18:58, 1 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
