@Megalibrarygirl: You added a Mercury URL but labeled as Vice News? ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:47, 17 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

I think I'm 'off' today. I put the wrong URL in the field. >.< Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:10, 17 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
@Megalibrarygirl: No worries! Just making sure. ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:13, 17 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

@Bri and Megalibrarygirl: If either of you are interested, this could be a fun collaboration for the ongoing 420 challenge at WikiProject Cannabis. Good start, just needs to have the above sources (and possibly a few others?) incorporate into the existing text. If not interested, all good, just know we're on the lookout for possible collaborations of the day, etc. ---Another Believer (Talk) 01:34, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Sounds like a good collaboration of the day to me! ☆ Bri (talk) 01:52, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Bri, Great, thanks for updating the template. I should clarify, reliable sources above should be added to the text. I'm not so sure about all of them. ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:52, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Bri and Another Believer: I don't think I'll have any time to work on this right now. But I appreciate you thinking of me. :) Megalibrarygirl (talk) 21:09, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Megalibrarygirl, No prob, I just saw you edited before so wanted to invite if interested. Happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:09, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Bri: I'm still trying to add a few more sources and tinker with wording a bit, but if you'd like to help, would you mind requesting a copy edit from the Guild of Copy Editors here? I'd submit one myself, but I've already hit the limit of two open requests. Something short and sweet is fine. Hoping a little more work might get this article GA-ready. ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:00, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Yes, requested ☆ Bri (talk) 02:03, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

I'm not a fan of Facebook links (WP:ELNO), but let's see what the GOCE volunteer does with it ☆ Bri (talk) 02:05, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Bri, I asked about this below. Wasn't sure if this counted as an official page or not. I'm open to keeping or removing. Based on my experience, GOCE won't make this call (they stick to prose improvements), but you can decide if you feel strongly either way. ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:06, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

The State Column

edit

Is The State Column a reliable source? I've added for now, but sentence could easily be removed. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 00:28, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Death and Taxes

edit

Is Death and Taxes a reliable source? Death and Taxes (website) redirects to Eldridge Industries. I've added this source to the article once, but this could easily be removed. ---Another Believer (Talk) 00:40, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

I'm not sure, should the Bold Type Tickets and Facebook pages be kept or removed? ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:03, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Facebook is allowed only if it is the only site used to organize the event. Is this so -- they had no domain for the event, for instance? ☆ Bri (talk) 02:20, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Bri, If there is/was a domain, I'm not aware. Perhaps the Mercury had a page up at one time. I'm also not sure if the Bold Type Tickets URL serves as an official website of sorts...? ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:30, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
I've added another Mercury link to the EL section for further consideration. This is all grey area to me, and I don't feel strongly about keeping or removing any. ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:42, 4 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Metalcraft vs Metal Craft: when primary sources trump secondary

edit

Primary sources for a company's name take precedence, I think... will add citation later. The company called itself Metalcraft Fabrication, and so it says in this review/interview as well. I suspect that those who used two words Metal/Craft were confused by the initialism MCF. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:39, 20 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

The guideline I was thinking of is WP:ABOUTSELF. ☆ Bri (talk) 00:41, 20 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Bri, OK, I'm definitely more comfortable using "Metal Craft" when this is what way more sources say, but if you feel strongly, feel free to revert my revert. Overall, I see this as a minor detail within the article. ---Another Believer (Talk) 00:41, 20 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
