Sausage Party

Because for a Good Reason why. Sausage Party is released in a 2010s year, 2016. Makes sense to you?

I'm just want the Page not to be Added Unsorcedly and/or Vandalized. ZeEnergizer (talk) 04:30, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

No, because the category Category:2010s animated films (and the Category:2010s films) are container categories so articles appear in the year subcategories but not the decade container category. Hence this film should be in Category:2016 animated films not the parent (container) category Category:2010s animated films. Whereas Category:2010s adventure films and Category:2010s comedy films are not subcategoriserd by year (though they do have subcategories by subgenre) and articles are directly in the decade category.

WikiProject Wildfire

 

Hello! I have recently started a new WikiProject and am trying to recruit new members. The project, WikiProject Wildfire, focuses on articles that relate to wildfires. There is a lot of work that needs to be done. From updating templates, to classifying and improving articles. Any level of commitment is welcome! If you care to just add some input on the founding of the new project, awesome. If you would like to take an active role in editing articles, that is awesome as well! Knowledge of wildfires is NOT a prerequisite for joining the project. In fact, it would be great to have some members of the project who are NOT fire-buffs. That way we make sure that articles aren't just written by and for people in the fire community. If this is something you have any interest in, I would love to have you join the project! Please feel free to join the discussion or leave me a message on my talk page. (Note that you are receiving this message from me because I saw you made multiple edits on a wildfire related page, specifically Griffith Park Fire. Not just spamming you at random.) Hope you have a great day! Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 22:18, 2 August 2016 (UTC)

Category:19th-century Church of Ireland church buildings

Have a look at the version history. You'll see that the original name conformed to agreed name at WP:CFD. Laurel Lodged (talk) 15:34, 23 August 2016 (UTC)

The category Category:19th-century Church of Ireland church buildings already existed (from 2011) when I created the 18th-century category to match it. Although the parent categories Category:19th-century Anglican churches etc. had been changed from “church buildings” to “churches” the subcategories for Ireland and Wales had not been changed. Hence I also created 20th century and 18th-century categories to match Category:19th-century Church in Wales church buildings (created 2015). They could be nominated for speedy renaming if you think so. Hugo999 (talk) 01:38, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Yes. I think that these gaps in the CFD nomination should be filled. As you say, speedy would be sufficient. Laurel Lodged (talk) 07:51, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Years in international relations

You should be aware that there's a general move against individual year categories in the 1st millennium (and in some cases up to the 15th century or so), specifically if you'd actually tried to create the red-linked category you left with this edit you'd have seen that Category:901 in international relations was deprecated by this CFD.Le Deluge (talk) 09:45, 16 September 2016 (UTC)

Well, included just in case, although extension back to this century is unlikely as you say Hugo999 (talk) 21:47, 19 September 2016 (UTC)
But you just end up creating work for other people fixing all the categories that shouldn't have been added in the first place. Here's another example of why it's worth trying to create a red-linked category - you would have seen the link to the CfD where Category:Film directors by century was deprecated because there's not been enough centuries with films for it to be anything other than a WP:SMALLCAT.Le Deluge (talk) 21:02, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

Shopping malls and restaurants

Aren't retail companies. Shopping malls are real estate companies, often Real Estate Investment Trusts also known as a REIT.

Restaurants are regarded by the US Census bureau as 'Food Services and Drinking Places'. They are service businesses....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 00:52, 29 September 2016 (UTC)

Re shopping malls, the main parent category is Category:Retail buildings. And there are early markets and bazaars (retail establishments) in Category:Shopping malls established in 113 and Category:Shopping malls established in 1460 Hugo999 (talk) 23:25, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

Category:Nobel laureates from Northern Ireland

Hi Hugo999, I notice that you have worked on Category:Nobel laureates from Northern Ireland. The page contains the sentence:

Laureates listed should also be listed under "British Nobel laureates"

And yet, at the bottom of the page we see: Category:British Nobel laureates

Doesn't this mean that listing these people in British Nobel laureates is automatically implied. I had the impression that such "redundant" categorization was discouraged by Wikipedia (how many levels up should one stop?)

What is the answer to this apparent contradiction? Thanks--Toploftical (talk) 16:41, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

The subcategories are not superfluous, but it helps to have a reminder that many English Nobel laureates (say) may be in the category British Nobel laureates. The subcategories should probably be labeled as “non-diffusing” though; like Category:Indian women engineers who should also be in the category Category:Indian engineers. Hugo999 (talk) 08:47, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

New Challenge for Oceania and Australia

Hi, Wikipedia:WikiProject Oceania/The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Australia/The 5000 Challenge are up and running based on Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge which has currently produced over 2300 article improvements and creations. The Australia challenge would feed into the wider region one and potentially New Zealand could have a smaller challenge too. The main goal is content improvement, tackling stale old stubs and important content and improving sourcing/making more consistent but new articles are also welcome if sourced. I understand that this is a big goal for regular editors, especially being summertime where you are, but if you'd like to see large scale quality improvements happening for Oceania and Australia like The Africa Destubathon, which has produced over 1700 articles in 5 weeks, sign up on the page. The idea will be an ongoing national editathon/challenge for the region but fuelled by a series of contests to really get articles on every province and subject mass improved. The Africa contest scaled worldwide would naturally provide great benefits to Oceania countries, particularly Australia and attract new editors. I would like some support from existing editors here to get the Challenges off to a start with some articles to make doing a Destubathon worthwhile and potentially bring about hundreds of improvements in a few weeks through a contest! Cheers.♦ --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:12, 24 November 2016 (UTC)

Category:2015 establishments in Manitoba

Hi Hugo999, would you mine explaining this edit? It was absent an edit summary. It appears the original cats survived (must be embedded in the replacement template). However, there is now two redundant sentences above and the placement of Category:2015 disestablishments in Manitoba between the second sentence and the navigation bar with the various years is sort of random. Respectfully, Hwy43 (talk) 04:10, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

I have been adding the navigation template for establishments in several Canadian provinces including Manitoba. I am not sure why the template adds the disestablishment category (usually it says "see also disestablishments in that year"). The "redundant" text is an explanatory re the category that was originally there but is not strictly necessary so will leave out. I have been through all the "establishments in Nova Scotia by year" since 1867, as some of the existing categories had only two or three of the four parent categories they should have (often missing the year or "18XY in Nova Scotia" category eg Category:1888 establishments in Nova Scotia).

March Madness 2017

G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:

  • tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
  • updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
  • creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:23, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Worcestershire Project Barnstar.

Hello Hugo999, First of all I want to tell, that all my life I dreamed to visit New Zealand, as I think, that this Country is one of the most beautiful in the World, but wasn’t yet able fulfil this dream. So, now about my message: I’m sending it to you, as I have noticed that you made a contribution to the article St Swithun's Church, Worcester. Recently I found out, that on Wikipedia exists a very good Project, called WP:WORCS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Worcestershire I became very interested, as I’m planning to visit the Archaeological sites in Worcestershire, make good photos and then to start an article about Archaeological findings of Worcestershire. I think, that WP:WORCS deserves to have its own symbol - a Barnstar, what will also work as momentum of positive energy, that will help to make this Project a bit more active: it’s in need of it. So, as a participant of the Wikipedia Awards Project I decided to create WORCS Barnstar: the emblem, used by Worcestershire units at the Battle of Agincour (now this emblem decorates the Flag of Worcestershire) - county's famed black pear - became the central motive of Worcestershire Barnstar. If you will have a couple of minutes, please have a look at the page WikiProject Wikipedia Awards talk page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Wikipedia_Awards and if in your opinion this Barnstar is worth it (I tried my best) — give a support. Your participation will be highly appreciated. Regards, Chris Oxford.Chris Oxford (talk) 23:13, 3 March 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Takapu Valley

 

The article Takapu Valley has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not notable 'suburb' consisting of a single rural road.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

I wrote an article on Takapu Road which is one of the official suburbs of Wellington City, as you can see from the template at the bottom of the article (though like Makara Beach which is somewhat larger, it has only a small population on one road). Hence I think they each deserve their own article. Hugo999 (talk) 10:59, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
