Expand Russian
editThese flags in the articles you are adding them are actually counterproductive. I do speak Russian, I have experience with the Russian Wikipedia, and I know that their source requirements are way below what we require. It is a lot of information there which is either unsourced or sourced to low-quality sources. And if it gets added here (and often with machine translation) I will be the one who has to deal with it. Please stop reverting my edits, at least until you are prepared to deal with the consequences - I mean, adding these pages to your watchlist, watch them every day, be prepared to figure out what sources are, copyedit machine translations etc.--Ymblanter (talk) 16:25, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

societies prior to their contact with European empires, such as those of Endre Sik
. Would it not be better to have a society that has an article?before the invasion of the Europeans
. Is "invasion" the right word to use, doesn't this imply intend? I haven't seen this wording used on other articles related to the subject.One paper has argued
. Isn't this a bit vague? I mean, I like the point it is making, but doesn't there need to be some significance?Margaret Mead, argue that private property exists in hunter-gatherer and other "primitive societies", but provides examples that Marx and subsequent theorists label as personal property and private property.
I really don't understand this. It reads like critics and proponents have the same arguments.

@Skjoldbro: Thank you for the barnstar, I've been working on the edit to publish for around two months so it seems I made some mistakes and overlooked some parts before publishing it.
societies prior to their contact with European empires, such as those of Endre Sik
. I used Endre Sík as the example as that was the person specifically referenced in the paper cited, turns out he does have an article, just the "i" in his surname has an accent instead of tittle.before the invasion of the Europeans
. I would choose to use invasion as after initial contact it was acknowledge by the contemporaneous parties that the Americas were inhabited by various societies and polities so the subsequent conquering and subjugation of those societies and peoples I believe fits the wording of "invasion". Though I have now adjusted it to say "colonisation" instead.One paper has argued
. This is from the already existing article, I've adjusted the wording and will look at doing more of a rework if I can access the paper and/or find other similar papers.Margaret Mead, argue that private property exists in hunter-gatherer and other "primitive societies", but provides examples that Marx and subsequent theorists label as personal property and private property.
My bad that final "and" should be a "not". I've now corrected it.
Military ranks
editHey mate, thank you for creating the Military ranks of the Royal Lao Armed Forces, great stuff! There are Navy ranks too which I will add when I can unless you get there first. Wondered if you were planning on any others? Bulgaria Kingdom and People's Republic + People's Republic of Kampuchea (Cambodia) would be grand if so. I can't make the icons unfortunately :(

Rank improvements
editHey, I have been thinking of making some minor changes to the rank templates, and wanted to run it by you, to get your thoughts.
- Removing the "National rank" category. There is only a limited number of nations which have it, making it redundant in 70-80% of the cases. Additionally, these ranks are generally classified as General/Flag officers.
- Removing "None/No equivalent". With the removal of the "National rank", there will be no need for the "none" in the officer category, as most have some kind of general officer. It also makes sense for the other ranks. Even in the NATO system, it should be fine with the removal, as I think it would be self-evident that an empty field in e.g. OR-6, would mean there is no rank within this rank code. I think that Comparative army enlisted ranks of Africa, shows that it is possible to have comparatives without any indicator of "missing" ranks.
Let me know what you think. Skjoldbro (talk) 11:54, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

editDo you know if there is a specific language code for "modern/late/1600-1800" Cornish? I think kw and cor are equivalent, and incorrect for this purpose? Tewdar (talk) 14:14, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Tewdar: as far as I could find no, so I used the cor code to distinguish internally from revived modern Cornish. I know it's not really good ground to stand on, so if you feel it should be changed then I have no argument against it. --Cdjp1 (talk) 16:39, 3 October 2021 (UTC)
- No, I thought it worked well. Somone else went around "updating" the iso codes, but I think your solution is very good. I think we should just put a note somewhere saying not to change if it happens again. I'll change it back to your version. Thanks for fixing the infobox on Vocabularium Cornicum by the way, looks much better! 😁 Tewdar (talk) 10:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Tewdar: added an invisible note to the section explaining the reasoning to it's use. --Cdjp1 (talk) 11:13, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Great, I saw it, thanks! Also, I should mention that I used "lang|kw" tags a lot in the "Vocabulary" section to mean 'Cornish of any period', whether old, middle, late, or revived. I think it would make sense to use oco = Old Cornish, cnx = Middle Cornish, cor = Late Cornish, and kw = Revived Cornish (and perhaps also linguistic reconstructions or Cornish of any period). What do you think? Tewdar (talk) 11:49, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Tewdar: yeah if we are talking of words from particular periods, we should use the codes to reflect this so the article is as accurate as possible, for the reconstructions I would suggest checking how such things are handled in other articles for guidance. --Cdjp1 (talk) 11:57, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- I fixed the tags and the De Gruyter reference problem. I think on balance, for attested forms, oco = Old Cornish, cnx = Middle Cornish, cor = Late Cornish is best. Then, kw = Revived Cornish (all forms), with reconstructed Old, Middle and Late forms having the above codes but indicate that it is a reconstruction with the usual asterisk. Sound good to you? Tewdar (talk) 13:32, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
- Looks like this system is unacceptable. See the discussion at Talk:Cornish_phonology#language_tags_cor_=_kw. Tewdar (talk) 17:16, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
- There's a new discussion here now. Tewdar (talk) 11:38, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

editI didn’t look at all, but the words are from Morgan, and therefore Seneca. Unfortunately I guess this is obsolete orthography (I’m not an expert either).

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
edit Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into Religious communism. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa (talk) 15:07, 4 January 2022 (UTC)
Francesco Cesare Casula moved to draftspace
editAn article you recently created, Francesco Cesare Casula, 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.

Page Views
editWondering what the purpose of putting page views on so many talk pages is? Is this a part of a new initiative?

- I was wondering the same thing. I don't like it, it clutters the talk pages and is rather trivial too booth. Before doing this on a large scale, I think you should seek consensus that this is actually something desirable. --Randykitty (talk) 22:15, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

- Are you now going to argue the citation YOU pointed to, which I then actually found and provided, is wrong? Cdjp1 (talk) 18:27, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- If it is wrong, remove it. If you have better, add it. If the citations are ok, they can be left. Cdjp1 (talk) 18:38, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
- Nice strawman argument. When did I provided any citation for "verifying your pictures"? My source was to verify the "rank names" which I updated, not your pictures. I asked you about the source for the "pictures of badges" you uploaded in SEPTEMBER 2021. The question remains, what is your source? The Doom Patrol (talk) 17:36, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
- My apologies, I thought you were talking about the rank titles. The badges are extracted from images such as this one, which are prevalent on search results, and seems to relate to an everyday working uniform. Cdjp1 (talk) 18:06, 22 August 2022 (UTC)
- Removal has been reverted, stating source, image descriptions updated. Though looking at this the NonCom ranks look to be on a red backing, though they also seem to be in full parade dress, so those images may need updating, depending on what else can be found.

September 2022
editThose were nice edits yesterday at the 2022 Russian invasion article. The article is currently about to go over 400Kb which seems to require a bulking down of the article which is becoming too large and sprawling.

small things
edit- Google books. Generally my ETVP script adds
| via = xxxx
wherever it makes sense. Because google books is so commonplace for URLs in book citations, I don't see any need for| via =
if the URL points to google books. But I won't remove it if it is already present. - The point of ETVP is to make the wikitext easy to read (visually parse); normally this means a blank following list markup, but not for citations within biblio listings. Doing this helps to delimit the beginning and end of each template.
- Normally in ETVP, there is always a blank before a pipe. ETVP is a trade-off between white space for clarity and trying to keep the cite as short as possible, so I made a small exception for the first pipe after the template name, with the exception of cite journal. It's possible I might remove this exception, since it saves so little space.
Which reminds me – I really must get round to documenting ETVP properly so I don't have to type out explanations like this!
