My block

Hi Zwerg,

I noticed a couple of months ago, you were discussing my most recent block with someone. I just want to clear something up: although I was blocked for edit-warring, I was also blocked because I disagreed with an admin. He offered me the opportunity to retain full editing privileges on the condition that I left the 2016 season article alone. I disagreed with this because I did not think that it would fix the problems that I wanted to address, and while I wanted to have that discussion, I didn't get the chance.

I get the feeling that you share similar sentiments as I do with regards to the current state of the WikiProject - that it's generally pretty good, but weighed down by endless bureaucracy. I think that there is a subset of editors who are far too concerned with what the season articles in particular will look like when the edits gradually taper off (ie a year from now), and are especially concerned with apparently contradicting the FIA.

Look at the Renault situation: we had multiple reliable sources where Carlos Ghosn stated Renault's intention to take over Lotus. We had multiple sources from within Lotus stating their intention to sell. And we had a High Court judgement which recognised that Renault were the legal owners of the team (and following the Flavio Briatore ban being overturned, we know civilian courts can supersede the FIA). But because the FIA hadn't made any comment on it, this subset of editors refused to include it in the article.

I have also noticed that there is a growing trend for editors to show up five minutes after Autosport run a headline and make decisions about the state of the article without any consideration to the state of the article or the direction other editors have been going. We saw that in the MP4-30 article; I worked on that for months, addressing the technical development of the car and choosing images to compliment it. But then someone showed up and decided that the images should focus on the livery change and formed a consensus off it. I don't OWN the article, but it would be nice if the people who put in the most work on them are consulted on the future direction rather than overruled because of an Autosport headline.

It's these attitudes that I want to try and change, because I think that the project has suffered because of them. Prisonermonkeys (talk) 06:40, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Seriously? It's been three months and you're still not over it? It's disappointing that you still haven't realized what the discussion was all about. Nobody ever disputed that Renault had become the new owners of the Lotus team. In fact that information was included in the article through a footnote. The discussion was over the fact that at the point of your edit-warring we actually had no idea whether they would rebrand the team and constructor with their own name and nationality. After-all they kept the Benetton name and nationality for a full two seasons when they became owners of the team back in 2000. We had no way to know whether they were no intending to so again. Additionally, they could have renamed the team to any other of their brands as well. Remember that the American Ford Motor Company owned and ran a British Jaguar Racing Team with Cosworth engines for five years. It strikes me that an editor that is so seasoned with this subject remains so oblivious to the workings of an ownership change of a F1 constructor. Your edits were premature and ultimately partially wrong. The team did not get the name you were edit warring into the article. We should always remember that we are never in a rush to publish information. Tvx1 21:57, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"European migrant crisis" under discussion at WP:ITNC

The removal of "European migrant crisis" from Main Page is re-proposed at WP:ITNC. Because you were involved in the previous discussion several months back, I invite you to improve consensus. --George Ho (talk) 08:24, 7 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

GA Cup reviews

Hey Zwerg, I didn't know if you saw the email/the judges talk page but I guess I'll say it again just in case. Do you mind just using three tildes instead of 4 when checking reviews? Some contestants review a lot of articles, and the "date stamp" can clutter up. Thanks! 02:46, 8 March 2016 (UTC)

@MrWooHoo: Oh, sorry, I wasn't aware of that. I'll do so in the future! Zwerg Nase (talk) 08:39, 8 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Who's my supervisor now?

And what personal attacks?

@84.161.247.158: The community supervises the community and you have been notified of disruptive behavior by as many as four of your fellow Wikipedians. Your talk page speaks for itself. Zwerg Nase (talk) 12:04, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

GA Cup

Greetings. Since the GA cup scoring is manual and I just saw you update my scores I want to make sure that I have 3 more GAs listed as completed on Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles/GA Cup/Submissions/MPJ-DK. For Mary Isenhour, 2015 Tour of Flanders and Ernest Deane. I know there is a lot going on and stuff gets overlooked so I figured I would just call your attention to it. Thank you for all the work you and others have done on the GA Cup pages.  MPJ-US  12:57, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MPJ-DK: I'll look at the others shortly! Zwerg Nase (talk) 13:00, 11 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of 2015 Mexican Grand Prix

The article 2015 Mexican Grand Prix you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:2015 Mexican Grand Prix for things which need to be addressed.

Westerwelle

Schuldigung, Zwerg, but do you think the Westerwelle article should include his official coming-out? I leave it to you....

Sein öffentliches Coming-out hatte Westerwelle jedoch erst im Sommer 2004 durch eine Schlagzeile am 21 July in der Bild, nachdem er gemeinsam mit seinem Partner erstmals öffentlich bei einer Feier zum 50. Geburtstag von Kanzlerin Merkel auftrat.[1][2]

@Sca: I'll include it. Thanks! Zwerg Nase (talk) 14:58, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Minor CX made.
Hey, while I'm here, what's the diff between meiden and vermeiden? Sca (talk) 17:54, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Sca: Meiden is used when you stay clear of someone or something. Vermeiden is when you avoid doing something. Zwerg Nase (talk) 17:57, 19 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
