Linebreak

Hi, In this edit I understand the change of player names to the correct symbols but I do not understand why you changed my linebreaks? Please read WP:LINEBREAK that says that you should use use <br /> (or <br>).Please note that they use <br /> in their example code and that the other break will be translated to <br /> so there was no need for you to remove that. Thank you. QED237 (talk) 09:53, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Moot point in my opinion. It's just my personal preference, that's all. Both do exactly the same thing, so no harm done. In fact leaving out the extra space and forward slash makes the article size smaller by two bytes each time. :) JMHamo (talk) 11:54, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Yes that is true, but if someone has used one of them there is no need to change, that is disruptive and some may take offense to it (not that I care that much). And at some article for example Champions league and Europa league only <br /> is being used. QED237 (talk) 12:09, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

As I said it's a personal preference and it doesn't matter which you prefer to use, you can even use a mix of both! It's certainly not a disruptive action. JMHamo (talk) 12:19, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

I am not going to argue over this "issue", since as we have said both can be used and it it up to the editor what to use. However changing an edit from an other user when there is no need to change that is disruptive. As you said "it's a personal preference" and I choose <br /> and you had no right to change that, and if you say it dont matter to you, then why did you change it? Such things can actually affect new editor thinking other will always correct them and they get tired of it. I will not comment this further and I will let this slide through my fingers, but I would appreciate if you would not make these changes in the future, especially since you said "it doesn't matter" you dont have to change it. Have a nice day. QED237 (talk) 12:57, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

and you said "(not that I care that much)"... JMHamo (talk) 12:59, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Yes I did, I dont care that much but other er may do and there is no need to change it when it is a perfectly fine linebreak. QED237 (talk) 13:03, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Please do not tell me "I would appreciate if you would not make these changes in the future"... everybody's free to edit Wikipedia and I will make any changes I wish, you can not tell an editor not to edit after you because you don't like, especially when we're referring to code that's not even seen by people reading the article. JMHamo (talk) 13:13, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) - JMHamo, to have other editors explaining to you that "this edit might not be good, because..." is much better then when people simply revert eachother. QED has not reverted you, he simply leaves a friendly message asking why you changed it, and after you explained why he asks you to not do such unnecessary changes in the future - that is exactly the kind of behavior every Wikipedia-editor should have. You both agree on that the code is the same, and If it ain't broke, don't fix it so I am hoping that you will follow QED's advice to not do such unnecessary changes again. Though it should be noted that I disagree with QED's comment about it being disruptive, but if you however continue to edit against the advice of fellow editors I might consider it to be disruptive. Mentoz86 (talk) 13:50, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Isn't it funny how trivial things get people annoyed. I do agree that this is a non-issue and If it ain't broke, don't fix it does apply here, so I won't edit <br /> no more if it's already like that, also I'm happy that you agree about my behaviour not being disruptive as implied. Thanks, JMHamo (talk) 13:58, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Deletion tagging

Hi JMHamo, A7 is for articles that don't assert significance or importance, not articles like Erdal Arikan. I've changed it to a BLPprod. ϢereSpielChequers 12:06, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know, I just realised that A7 does not apply to educational institutes. Thanks for the BLPPROD. JMHamo (talk) 12:11, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

No problem, he isn't an educational institution, but whilst not all Professors survive AFD being a Professor is significant enough to avoid A7, as indeed would be "famous for his invention of Polar Codes". ϢereSpielChequers 12:16, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Get you! Thanks for the explanation. Have a good day :) JMHamo (talk) 12:22, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Re:meatpuppetry

Almost definitely - but unfortunately it would be extremely hard to prove. We just need to hope that the closing admin has some common sense. GiantSnowman 20:41, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

G13 Checking

Dear JMHamo: I am sorry that you were offended by the conversation at the Afc talk page. I think that part of what upset you may have been a misunderstanding, though. The G13 bot nominates the submissions in order, oldest first. Those of us who have been rescuing some of the submissions usually just leave the ones that we don't rescue alone unless they are offensive or something, and the bot gets rid of them when it gets to them. That's why we let the others know which ones we've already looked at (Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/G13 rescue). No one was suggesting that the bot should do the checking instead of a person (obviously it can't), only that it pace the deletions so that the admins aren't overworked.

I realize that you have said that you won't check any more, but if you should change your mind at any time you will be welcome. —Anne Delong (talk) 01:54, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your explanation Anne. If only the Admins could have explained it like that to me, things would have been different. I am going to stick to WP:FOOTY from now on. Thanks! JMHamo (talk) 02:02, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

I was also sorry to read about the interaction. Thank you for the work that you did with the AFC backlog, and happy editing. Jujutacular (talk) 02:36, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Some of us at WP:AfC are aware that there are problems with the way in which some editors (and admins) express themselves when one of the volunteers at gets it wrong. There's no need for respect and politeness to go out of the window when someone isn't on the right track. What you were told was valid, the way you were told was not. Please be assured the problem is being watched, so others don't get treated like you were. Rankersbo (talk) 19:24, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Many thanks for your message Rankersbo, you've hit the nail on the head! I was offended by the tone of the Admin's replies, not the request to stop G13 tagging. You've restored my faith a little. Have a nice weekend. JMHamo (talk) 20:41, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Not to mention the blatant PA you responded with. Between you, you have lost something else for the project. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:44, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

I hope you won't stop working in the AFC area. Ironically, I came across your comment because I'm concerned about the AfC backlog, and came to check out the talk thread before making a proposal. I'd like to reiterate one point that was hinted at, but bears repeating (although if it had been said earlier, it would have been better). A few month's ago when user:Hasteur started the bot to help clean out some of the G13s, there were some strongly worded discussions. Not quite a war, but some unpleasantness. That led to some agreements among the interested parties, and in the usual way of Wikipedia, we agreed to a process you are somehow supposed to know about, despite not being clearly written down in a single place. I also play a small part, which is why I feel a bit guilty that I might have contributed to the problem.

I am one of the admins cleaning out many of the G13s. I won't bore you with my full process, except to note that when it comes to anyone new, I look closely at the first few nominations (by few, I mean a hundred or so), until I reach comfort that the person isn't nominating articles that could easily be rescued. I reached that comfort level, so when I see your name, I can delete with minimal checking. However, I typically go out of town for a couple days each week. That didn't happen in November, but I was out of town on 5 December, and when I am out of town, my Wikipedia work is minimal, and my G13 deletions are close to non-existent. Which means much of the time you were nominating, I was making sure the backlog rarely hit a hundred, and was often almost empty. The bot alone will never generate a 100, but if the bot generates 50 at a time when you and Anne and Rankersbo are active, and I'm not around, the backlog can built up. That's when it happened. (FYI, I'll be out this Wednesday and Thursday).

You are a volunteer, so of course you can work on anything you want. If you wanted to know where you would be most effective, I would argue it is better to work on reviews, because those can only be handled by humans, whereas G13 nominations can be done by bot. But again, you get to choose what you want to work on. I hope you will stay active.--S Philbrick(Talk) 18:44, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

I removed your speedy deletion tag, as it appears (a) to be notable, and (b) has plenty of context - your reasoning is either invalid or outdated, based on an earlier version. Please take this to WP:AfD instead. Bearian (talk) 18:30, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

It has been updated a lot now since I tagged it for deletion. Thanks JMHamo (talk) 18:33, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

Apologies -- I messed up & somehow half the page was missing in the version you first saw. I don't understand why: It was there in the edit window but not in the saved page. I couldn't see any codes or anything at all at the point after which the text on the page was blank (except for the big red notice that there was no <ref/>) but the text in the edit window was all there. I then copied the whole page to my clipboard, spit on my hands, inserted the same text back & voila! it was fine. Weird. ch (talk) 22:54, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

No problem! Glad you got it sorted. JMHamo (talk) 22:57, 12 December 2013 (UTC)

I really think this asserts significance. 2 million views on youtube and the Canadian Broadcast Corporation article certanlly sound significance, if not notability. Dlohcierekim 23:04, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

A11

Hi. I've declined a couple of A11s of yours. A11 'made-up' is only for things like a student drinking game 'invented by Shane and Wayne in the Blur Gerbil pub on the 21st of November 2013', or a new word meaning the smell of roses, finding cat hair in the trifle, and missing out on the pizza at a party because someone didn't cut it right. Basically, not a hoax because it could be true - but there's no notability, AND it says or implies without any doubt that it was invented (recently being the default assumption). Hoaxes are written to deceive and are a branch of vandalism. We AGF that A11 posts are intended to be in good faith (but are misguided...). A list of thesauruses (or even thesauri...) isn't a made-up thing. It may have other faults, and I'm not sure what (if anything) to do about that one. A11 is still misunderstood by people who weren't in on its creation, but it is quite limited and doesn't duplicate hoax - and like A9 is a two part criterion. A9 requires a non-articled performer AND non-notability; A11 requires an assumption of good faith (largely because there's no evidence otherwise) AND non-notability (without any hope...). Peridon (talk) 15:37, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation. Good to know! JMHamo (talk) 15:48, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

The creation of new CSD things takes a lot of argument which leads to a template with a short description, and even more abbreviated summaries at TW and PC. If you have any queries about CSD, let me know. It's where I've worked since I started here, and I decided to get in on the discussions to counter some of the extreme inclusionism (and restrain some of the extreme deletionism...). Peridon (talk) 15:57, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

Your db-context tag at Üveggyapot

Hi. I saw that you tagged Üveggyapot for speedy deletion under criterion A1, lack of context. I wanted to let you know that that criterion doesn't apply to articles just because they're in foreign languages, Hungarian in this case. See WP:NOTENGLISH for information on handling articles like these if you don't find other grounds under which to have them deleted.

In this case, there were two applicable speedy deletion criteria: WP:CSD A2 because the article was copied from Hungarian Wikipedia and, probably, WP:CSD A10 because the article's topic is already at Fiberglass. In theory, before tagging it with A10, I could have looked through the Hungarian article to see if it had any information that could be added to the English one, but:

1. I was tagging it with A2 as well anyway.
2. Even if A2 didn't apply, I wouldn't feel an obligation to wait till someone translates it to find out, because if no one translates it then the article would be deleted after a couple weeks anyway.

So I replaced your deletion tag with a multi-tag for A2 and A10. —Largo Plazo (talk) 11:44, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

VisualEditor newsletter • 19 December 2013

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has worked on some toolbar improvements, fixing bugs, and improving support for Indic languages as well as other languages with complex characters. The current focus is on improving the reference dialog and expanding the new character inserter tool.

There have been dozens of changes since the last newsletter. Here are some of the highlights:

• Rich copying and pasting is now available. If you copy text from another website, then character formatting and some other HTML attributes are preserved. This means, for example, that if you copy a pre-formatted suggested citation from a source like this, then VisualEditor will preserve the formatting of the title in the citation. Keep in mind that copying the formatting may include formatting that you don't want (like section headings). If you want to paste plain, unformatted text onto a page, then use Control+⇧ Shift+V or ⌘ Command+⇧ Shift+V (Mac).
• Auto-numbered external links like [1] can now be edited just like any other link. However, they cannot be created in VisualEditor easily.
• Several changes to the toolbar and dialogs have been made, and more are on the way. The toolbar has been simplified with a new drop-down text styles menu and an "insert" menu. Your feedback on the toolbar is wanted here. The transclusion/template dialog has been simplified. If you have enabled mathematical formula editing, then the menu item is now called the formula editor instead of LaTeX.
• There is a new character inserter, which you can find in the new "insert" menu, with a capital Omega ("Ω"). It's a very basic set of characters. Your feedback on the character inserter is wanted here.
• Saving the page should seem faster by several seconds now.
• It is now possible to access VisualEditor by manually editing the URL, even if you are not logged in or have not opted in to VisualEditor normally. To do so, append ?veaction=edit to the end of the page name. For example, change https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random?veaction=edit to open a random page in VisualEditor. This is intended to support bug testing across multiple browsers, without requiring editors to login repeatedly.

Looking ahead: The transclusion dialog will see further changes in the coming weeks, with a simple mode for single templates and an advanced mode for more complex transclusions. The new character formatting menu on the toolbar will get an arrow to show that it is a drop-down menu. The reference dialog will be improved, and the Reference item will become a button in the main toolbar, rather than an item in the Insert menu.

If you have questions or suggestions for future improvements, or if you encounter problems, please let everyone know by posting a note at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Feedback. Thank you! Whatamidoing (WMF) (talk) 20:45, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

VisualEditor newsletter for Janaury 2014

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has worked mostly minor features and fixing bugs. A few significant bugs include working around a bug in CSSJanus that was wrongly flipping images used in some templates in right-to-left (RTL) environments (bug 50910) a major bug that meant inserting any template or other transclusion failed (bug 59002), a major but quickly resolved problem due to an unannounced change in MediaWiki core, which caused VisualEditor to crash on trying to save (bug 59867). This last bugs did not appear on any Wikipedia. Additionally, significant work has been done in the background to make VisualEditor work as an independent editing system.

As of today, VisualEditor is now available as an opt-out feature to all users at 149 active Wikipedias.

• The character inserter tool in the "Insert" menu has a very basic set of characters. The character inserter is especially important for languages that use Latin and Cyrillic alphabets with unusual characters or frequent diacritics. Your feedback on the character inserter is requested. In addition to feedback from any interested editor, the developers would particularly like to hear from anyone who speaks any of the 50+ languages listed under Phase 5 at mw:VisualEditor/Rollouts, including Breton, Mongolian, Icelandic, Welsh, Afrikaans, Macedonian, and Azerbaijani.
• meta:Office hours on IRC have been heavily attended recently. The next one will be held this coming Wednesday, 22 January at 23:00 UTC.
• You can now edit some of the page settings in the "options" dialog – __NOTOC__ and __FORCETOC__ as selection (forced on, forced off, or default setting; bugs 56866 and 56867) and __NOEDITSECTION__ as a checkbox (bug 57166).
• The automated browser tests were adjusted to speed them up and bind more correctly to list items in lists, and updated to a newer version of their ruby dependencies. You can monitor the automated browser tests' results (triggered every twelve hours) live on the server.
• Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide was updated recently to show some new and upcoming features.

Looking ahead: The character formatting menu on the toolbar will get a drop-down indicator next Thursday. The reference and media items will be the first two listed in the Insert menu. The help menu will get a page listing the keyboard shortcuts. Looking further out, image handling will be improved, including support for alignment (left, right, and center) and better control over image size (including default and upright sizes). The developers are also working on support for editing redirects and image galleries.

Subscriptions to this newsletter are managed at Wikipedia:VisualEditor/Newsletter. Please add or remove your name to change your subscription settings.

Find all the references to the lot of these players, and develop the articles to see how the 100 plus references each across Irish publications add up to paint a complete picture of these players careers. While that may not convinence you of their notability after you've added 100 or so newspapers sources to each article, it will begin to give you a good idea about using Irish newspaper sources. --LauraHale (talk) 15:08, 29 January 2014 (UTC)

Sunderland against Di Canio

Very interesting that more than 2 months ago you came to the same conclusion that I have recently reached, on the basis of different evidence. Thanks for letting me know. Unfortunately, I see that the account does sudden bursts of editing, with long gaps between, which means that it is entirely possible that he/she will not even notice the current block. However, even if that is so, putting a block for the account on record, together with the talk page message about likely IP sockpuppetry, will be useful for future reference. If there already had been such a record in existence, I would have realised the situation much earlier, and perhaps would have taken action earlier. Unfortunately, when we have an editor who jumps about among IP addresses over far too large a range for a range block, and who edits disruptively on numerous pages, it is not possible to completely stop them, but we can at least take whatever steps we can to hinder his/her disruptive editing as much as possible. Sometimes, that eventually leads to the editor giving up, but even when it doesn't, it can reduce the damage. JamesBWatson (talk) 17:30, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

VisualEditor Newsletter—February 2014

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor team has worked on some small changes to the user interface, such as moving the reference item to the top of the Insert menu, as well as some minor features and fixing bugs, especially for rich copying and pasting of references.

The biggest change was the addition of more features to the image dialog, including the ability to set alignment (left, right, center), framing options (thumbnail, frame, frameless, and none), adding alt text, and defining the size manually. There is still some work to be done here, including a quick way to set the default size.

• The main priority is redesigning the reference dialog, with the goal of providing autofill features for ISBNs and URLs and streamlining the process. Current concept drawings are available at mw:VisualEditor/Design/Reference Dialog. Please share your ideas about making referencing quick and easy with the designers.
• A few bugs in the existing reference dialog were fixed. The toolbar was simplified to remove galleries and lists from the reference dialog. When you re-use references, it now correctly displays the references again, rather than just the number and name. If you paste content into a dialog that can't fit there (e.g. ==section headings== in references), it now strips out the inappropriate HTML.
• You can now edit image galleries inside VisualEditor. At this time, the gallery tool is a very limited option that gives you access to the wikitext. It will see significant improvements at a later date.
• The character inserter tool in the "Insert" menu is being redesigned. Your feedback on the special character inserter is still wanted, especially if you depend on Wikipedia's character inserters for your normal editing rather than using the ones built into your computer.
• You can now see a help page about keyboard shortcuts in the page menu (three bars next to the Cancel button) (T54844).
• If you edit categories, your changes will now display correctly after saving the page (T50560).
• Saving the page should be faster now (T61660).
• Any community can ask to test a new tool to edit TemplateData by leaving a note at T53734.

Looking ahead: The link tool will tell you when you're linking to a disambiguation or redirect page. The warning about wikitext will hide itself after you remove the wikitext markup in that paragraph. Support for creating and editing redirects is in the pipeline. Looking further out, image handling will be improved, including default and upright sizes. The developers are also working on support for viewing and editing hidden HTML comments, some behavioral magic words like DISPLAYTITLE, and in-line language setting (dir="rtl").

I removed your tag placed on this new article. The article has not even been alive for half an hour. I am building the story line as I go. In the lede I have already established that he held the world record in the 100 metres. When I do those paragraphs I'll add a source. In short, you are too damned impatient and didn't read the already existing qualifier in the first iteration of the article. Cool it with your tagging. In fact, while you cool your guns, take a read at my user page and see how people who spray these unsightly tags around wikipedia damage the project in general. Maybe you'll be a little slower to pull the trigger. Trackinfo (talk) 02:18, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Why did you tag this user page for speedy deletion? It didn't look like a test page to me. In fact, I didn't see any problem with it. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:15, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

My mistake, it shouldn't have been tagged. I'll be more careful in future. JMHamo (talk)
