WP:MOVETODRAFT userscript

Hello Jonathan Deamer, I've tagged a redirect for CSD R2 that remained after you draftified Draft Hassan Hussein Musa. You might find the MOVETODRAFT user script helpful for draftification. It informs creators about the draftification process and tags remaining redirect for CSD R2 after the move. – DreamRimmer (talk) 14:50, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up, DreamRimmer. Was the first time I've done that and wasn't sure I did it right. Will check out the script! Jonathan Deamer (talk) 14:53, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello there!

Hi Jonathan - hope you're keeping well and having a happy New Year! Just wanted to stop by and say it was a pleasure getting to know you at the end of last year through Train the Trainer (I've only just found out what your username is, otherwise I'd have wished you a Merry Christmas too!). I hope to get involved in more Wikimedia UK outreach work soon. :-) Patient Zero^talk 01:31, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Hey @Patient Zero, good to hear from you! Glad you found me here :)

Was great getting to know you too! I'm excited to run a training session or similar soon. Anything like that on your radar right now? Jonathan Deamer (talk) 20:14, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you! I am hoping to be able to do that near to where I live in the forthcoming months, ideally with a group who identify as neurodivergent in some way and from an accessibility/inclusion perspective. I also wouldn't mind travelling a little further to do that if needs be! Patient Zero^talk 22:17, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

AFD

Hello, Jonathan Deamer,

I encourage you to withdraw the AFD you provided a nomination statement is. Then it can be closed as several editors want to happen. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:50, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Liz, thanks for being in touch. Agree that closure seems like a good course of action, but am I able to withdraw a nomination that wasn't really mine? I didn't create the AfD myself. WP:PROCEDURALCLOSE says: "A deletion discussion that is poorly formatted should not be closed for this reason alone, in order to avoid biting new users. Instead, fix it." So I fixed the nomination created by another editor. I still see it as "theirs" to withdraw, but happy to be told if there's policy or consensus that suggests otherwise. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 07:37, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

A suggestion for the future

Just reviewed your article on Camberley Kate, great work and really interesting subject matter. I have a suggestion for your future articles, as I'm not sure if you have applied for access to The Wikipedia Library yet. It's a really good method of finding sources, especially using Newspapers.com through it. Just for Camberley Kate alone, here's some examples I found:

• Dangerous? Not My Dogs Says Kate
• The story of Camberly Kate and the rabies town where many of the dogs are muzzled
• Moral of a good life
• The Dog Woman
• Memory of Kate lives on

Feel free to add these to the article, if you're so inclined. And that's just a sampling of the sources that can be found and just from Newspapers.com alone. There's a lot of other really useful databases in The Wikipedia Library. Silverseren^C 17:17, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks so much @Silver seren, this is really helpful! I do use Wikipedia Library occasionally, but I always search from the main homepage rather than going directly to Newspapers.com, and that doesn't seem to return sources like the ones you found quite as readily. I used it to access The BMJ for my work on Elizabeth Ward recently, but I'm sure there is lots of local news coverage for her too. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:29, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks too for reviewing the article/DYK :) Jonathan Deamer (talk) 17:30, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hello, Jonathan Deamer. Thank you for your work on Robin Hood's Stone. Ingratis, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Thanks for the thanks! and for this article. I moved it because although German Wikipedia uses the "curly" apostrophe, English Wikipedia doesn't. Also, when translating from other wikipedias, for reasons of copyright, article history and so forth it's necessary to include in an edit summary the attribution statement given at WP:TFOLWP. On this occasion I've added it but please bear it in mind in any future translations.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Ingratis}}. Please remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.) Best wishes, Ingratis (talk) 09:11, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

DYK for Belzan

On 19 April 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Belzan, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that food critic Grace Dent reviewed a Liverpool restaurant that served her rice pudding flavoured with a substance that is banned in the United States for its lethality? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Belzan. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Belzan), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Translated articles (continued)

Hi Jonathan. I left you a note above: "when translating from other wikipedias, for reasons of copyright, article history and so forth it's necessary to include in an edit summary the attribution statement given at WP:TFOLWP." I've since sought advice on this, and - with good intentions - have somewhat misinformed you: a translation from another-language wikipedia does need to be attributed but the wording in WP:TFOLWP is only a recommendation - any form of words that conveys the message is fine, and that certainly includes the wording automatically added by the translation tool, so if that is how an article has been translated, there is no need to add anything else. One less thing to do! Best wishes, Ingratis (talk) 13:32, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for clarifying! It makes sense that the tool would do the right thing by default, but I nonetheless like how explicit the attribution statement you suggested is. Will keep in mind! Jonathan Deamer (talk) 14:31, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
