If you feel that this Admin is over zealous would you be prepared to join a move to get his Admin status changed and even get him banned for a while. Albatross2147 (talk) 23:19, 23 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I don't think he is over-zealous. He made a mistake, acknowledged it, and fixed his mistake. Fair play as far as I'm concerned. The one I'm worried about is Nyttend. He made the first mistake, and then when it was exposed, went around and sabotaged several of my edits to try and cover it over. Fryede (talk) 23:29, 23 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

DYK for American Idiot (musical) edit

  On September 25, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article American Idiot (musical), which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits your article got while on the front page (here's how) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

You are now a Reviewer edit

 

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

For the guideline on reviewing, see Wikipedia:Reviewing. Being granted reviewer rights doesn't change how you can edit articles even with pending changes. The general help page on pending changes can be found here, and the general policy for the trial can be found here.

American Idiot edit

Can you please explain this edit? Why are you insisting to include the word "cum"? It does not make sense there... BOVINEBOY2008 15:35, 11 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

I insist on using it because it's the correct word to describe the situation. I refer you (again) to http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cum#Conjunction "Conjunction cum Used in indicating a thing with two or more roles, functions, or natures, or a thing that has changed from one to another." Jesus Christ, Superstar started out as a concept album and was eventually adapted as a stage musical. Hence the usage of the conjunction "cum".
Thanks. I apparently was not familiar with the use of that word in such a way. I have only seen it in the slang and in the Latin. BOVINEBOY2008 01:24, 14 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

Your GA nomination of American Idiot (musical) edit

The article American Idiot (musical) you nominated as a good article has failed  ; see Talk:American Idiot (musical) for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Achowat (talk) 21:00, 27 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

Could you explain this a little better? I can't figure out how to fix the article because there are no notes at Talk:Article. In addition, the link from Wikipedia:Good article nominations been deleted. There doesn't seem to be any discussion that I can track down. A little assistance would be greatly appreciated. Fryede (talk) 22:34, 27 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
Sorry about that, I broke the template. You were supposed to be a discussion at Talk:American Idiot (musical). I've fixed that now and hopefully clear up some confusion. It's a very fine article, easily B Class (it'd be A Class if we had that). For a template to go on to improve it up to GA, feel free to take a look at The Importance of Being Earnest, WikiProject:Theatre's Highest Priority GA. If you have any other questions, feel free to ask! (The Talk-Back was a nice touch; I appreciate that) Cheers! Achowat (talk) 23:20, 27 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for clearing that up and for the review. (Boo for failing it though! ;-) I can easily incorporate the characters into the plot section. And I'll check out TIOBE so see if there's anything I can glean from it. Before I go to all the trouble of a renomination, however, is there anything specifically that you think I should or could fix/add/update/change/etc? I'd hate to sit around for another six weeks waiting for a new review when I could spend that time improving the article. This is my first attempt at a GA, so any guidance would be appreciated. Fryede (talk) 23:46, 27 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
The only other issue that might give GA Reviewers pause is the length and detail of the Plot section. I didn't comment because I didn't mind it, it made sense to go over each musical number, especially for a musical of this kind, but other GA Reviewers might not see it that way. That not, for instance, the way the MOS would have us do it. Everything else looks fine (though, again, finding more or better free/fair use images would be worthwhile).

Message from the Editorial Team

Bienvenue! Willkommen! Welcome!

Please be warm-hearted in encouraging everyone to do their best to contribute to all Eurovision-related Wikipedia articles, and welcome our new members to the project. It is easy for editors to get into conflict with each other, and things can get very nasty on the most trivial of issues, whether that be on the language of songs, the names of certain countries, or how we deal with incidents at the contest. In such circumstances it is worth remembering one thing: we are all here to build an encyclopedia, and the contribution of Eurovision to human knowledge can only be given justice if we work together and make articles, not drama!

  • If you would like something to appear in the August 2012 Edition of the newsletter, then please inform us at the Project Newsdesk.
  • If there is an article you think we should have? Request it here.

Happy editing!


Project News
  • When creating new articles about a performer or song, please remember to add sources either from Eurovision.tv, ESCToday or other reliable sources. If you're not sure a source is reliable enough, then ask the project for an opinion.
  • Remember to only add content to articles that is relevant to the article's main subject. Anything not in relation to the article may be questioned and/or subject to redirection to an article that would benefit it's inclusion. Again if in doubt, ask on the article or project talk pages for an opinion - communication is an important tool.
  • On the subject of communication, please make use of the article talk pages. They are a vital tool in conducting consensus talks of additions of proposed new sections and/or removal of unnecessary section. If you don't use these pages to put across your views, then you only have yourself to blame if actions are taken that you disagree with and you end up wandering into edit warring territory.
  • The 2012 season of Eurovision has drawn to a close, and we now start preparations for the 2013 edition. While things will be slow to start of with, now is the ideal opportunity to do a clean-up exercise across articles relating to the project. There's over 4,500 articles associated with the project. If you happen to see a Eurovision related article without the {{EurovisionNotice}} template on the article's talk page, please add it. You can also read Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment if you would like to help assess or reassess articles in our project if you see that they have outgrown their current assessment. There is currently one unassessed article.
  • And finally... a massive thank you to all members of the project for your constant hard work on collaborating and contributing to Eurovision related articles. Keep up the good work team!

Project Gossip
  • The RfC discussion in regards to article layout, is still taking place on the project talk page. Could all members please ensure that they participate in the discussion so that we can all agree on important article structure issues. If you don't take part, then you only have yourselves to blame if a consensus is passed that you disagree with.

WikiProject Eurovision: Recent changes edit

Hello,

Please note that there have been some changes to operations surrounding Eurovision articles, these being that:

  • Template names have now been modernised and/or megred into super-templates, for example Countries in the Eurovision Song Contest has now been merged into Template:Eurovision Song Contest making it even easier to find everything under one template. If you are planning to create a new template, please keep the standardised titles in mind. Other templates have been modernised and a full list of them can be found here.
  • The Eurovision Song Contest and Junior Eurovision Song Contest articles have now been standardised to keep a consitancy throughout the project and to the genral reader too. Skeleton article drafts can be found for Eurovision Song Contest by Year and Junior Eurovision Song Contest by Year.

If you have any questions, please ask at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Eurovision.

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 12:55, 23 November 2015 (UTC)Reply

WikiProject Eurovision: Important Announcement edit

WikiProject Eurovision
Important Announcement


Dear Project Member

Following a project community discussion, which was raised over the use of English translation columns on annual contest articles, and advice from the lead coordinator of The Guild of Copy Editors, who are extremely knowledgeable in regards to all editing practises and manual of style policies. A consensus decision has been reached to fully remove ALL English translations, as such content falls under the prohibition on original research, even if it seems helpful to the reader. This is because we have now to assume that every reader has access to automated translation tools that can always give them a sense of the meaning of the title in their native language; it is not Wikipedia's job to provide those tools for the reader. Which therefore means we are no longer to include an English translation column, nor are we to provide translation by any other means on contest articles.

Such information is currently in the process of being removed, and a new table formatting and layout style is being rolled out across all articles. Please view the new guidance on table layout at Wikipedia:WikiProject Eurovision/Format and Guides#Article layout. An example of the new table layout style can also be access via the collapsed section within this message. Thank you.

New table format and layout per advice from the guild of copy-editors and consensus of the project community
