RE Changing The Name Of The Article

Jarry- If you could change it for me, i would be very thankful. Basically, the name of the article is TalentTrove and i would like it to be Talent Trove (with a space in between). By doing so, if someone searches for TalentTrove, will it automatically bring them to the new Talent Trove page? Thanks a bunch! MichaelScott569 (talk) 17:21, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

External Link

Jarry- Thanks for all your help with this article. The redirect is exactly what i needed and I did not need to change the name of the article. i looked at the external link page from Wiki and was not sure why you made note of it. Is there something wrong with the external links in my article? Thanks! MichaelScott569 (talk) 17:49, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

Your recent CSD tagging

Recently, you have tagged Sincrotron for speedy deletion as a foreign-language article that exists on another Wikimedia project. Please note that even though it was not in English, it was still not copied and pasted from another Wikipedia. See es:Sincrotrón. In addition, the article already exists on the English Wikipedia. Notice that I redirected the page. Any articles that are not copied and pasted from another Wikipedia do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion. For articles such as the one mentioned in this post, please use the {{Notenglish}} tag instead. Thanks. -- IRP ☎ 21:56, 10 March 2009 (UTC)

(see IRP's talkpage) I'm happy to agree to disagree. - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 21:47, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

An apology

Way back on 2009-02-26 you commented on a CfD (Wikipedia bots) that was closed soon afterwards. Somehow I managed to miss what you had said, and I would like to pick you up on it now (if I may). Basically, I would suggest that categorising inactive bots is sometimes a good idea and sometimes a very good idea - and it never really works against the system.

Don't worry, you don't need to reply to this or even remind yourself of the discussion if you don't want to, I just wanted to give your comments the attention they deserve. Thanks, - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 21:56, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

I had to go back and look to figure out the context of your comments : )

I'm guessing that you're talking about this?

Essentially, my thought was that while I agree that inactive bots should be categorised, I don't think they should be categorised as part of the breakdown schema. If ever they become active again, one can always add them to the schema. But having the inactives there simply does a disservice to those looking for certain kinds of bots (since they will have to - by trial and error - try to figure out if a certain bot is active to help...).

Do you disagree? - jc37 03:06, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Well, negotiations seem stalled with regards to by purpose categories, so it looks like we're going to have a status quo on them anyhow. But I would agree that if anything constructive ever comes out of them, we should make sure inactive bots are not listed. - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 07:51, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

Admin

Hi, I've had a look at your stats, and they look good. 3000 edits, about 32% to articles, and the rest mostly dealing with vandalism. Although you've been around since December 2006, almost all of these edits are in the last three months, which some might consider too short to make a proper judgment; however, you have rollback, which you don't seem to have abused. Also, some people regard self-noms as wanting the tools too badly, however I don't see any reason not to go for it. Have you read the guide? You'll also have to show you know policies such as WP:CSD and WP:BLOCK and be able to discuss any stressful situations you may have been involved in. If you feel happy you can take the roller-coaster nature of an RFA, let me know and we can discuss a nomination, which I would be happy to do for you. --Rodhullandemu 18:42, 8 March 2009 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay here, I got a bit bogged down with a WP:GAN and other stuff. If you're keen on an RfA, it would be helpful if you had email enabled, because it's more or less expected of Admins; meanwhile, I have some observations on an RfA if you'd like to drop me a line. Cheers. --Rodhullandemu 16:32, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

WP:RFA

Hi. I assume this was an honest mistake with the rollback button? Cheers, –Juliancolton ^{Tropical Cyclone} 16:42, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I undid tried to undo my revision back as soon as I saw I'd done it. Sorry about that folks. - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 16:49, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Clarification on condition

What do you mean by having the exclusion hard-coded into the bot? It should already respect {{bots}} and {{nobots}} (neither was present when the edits to Wikipedia:Template messages/Deletion were made). Is that all that is needed or should a list of pages it shouldn't go near be added to the code? FunPika 11:53, 14 March 2009 (UTC)

Re: Strauss

Hey, no worries! I appreciate your apology though. You're right about the length issue. I've put in a general Article Issues template instead. I did go ahead and put some basic context in the first sentence to at least provide a grain of frame of reference. But like I said, don't worry about it. I see where you're coming from. Anyhow, take it easy! - Vianello (talk) 21:02, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

Contested prod: Resident Evil monster list

I have removed the {{prod}} tag from Resident Evil monster list, which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article. Instead, feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks!

Thanks very much, my pleasure, it means a lot to me to be thanked (so thank you) as normally the only thanks I get are the vandals on my user page! All the best Spitfire^Tally-ho! 20:16, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Swedish heraldry

My goal is to eventually be rid of the image gallery except for the helmets & crowns, incorporating the rest into the article itself. Sadly, I think the arms of Munkfors Municipality and Mora Municipality, together with the arms of Jämtland and Stockholm counties may have to go away altogether. My only hesitation there is that the image of Saint George and the Dragon in the Mora arms is so iconic in Sweden. There are statues of this iconic image scattered throughout Stockholm, and in Uppsala and Gothenburg. It is rumored to tie in with the birth of the nation, implicitly relating the dragon to the Danish crown, though I don't have any reliable source for any of this, so the Mora arms will probably go by the wayside with the others. I will also introduce a section on Swedish military heraldry (I've got some more research ahead of me) and move those images up to it. The county arms will go away, and the noble arms will be moved up to their section, leaving only the helmets and crowns. Once all that is done, I think the article will be reasonably complete. I'd like to work in a little more information about indications of cadency too, if I can find more information, but I'm reaching the limits of my resources, since I'm not in Sweden anymore.

PeriShip

Thanks for the note, I will take a look, if you want it to go to AfD feel free to replace the speedy tag. As the article sits now, they don't state why they are notable, they just say they are a shipping company that is aligned with UPS, and the reader has to draw their own conclusions from the references. Thanks again.--kelapstick (talk) 21:05, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

I just took a look at one of the sources, could potentially be notable enough for an article, I suggested to the original author he should explain why they are notable (which would be grounds for removing the speedy tag), rather than let the readers decide by reading the sources themselves.--kelapstick (talk) 21:12, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

At least with the hangon tag, it won't be deleted if there is evidence that there will be an improvement, best of luck! --kelapstick (talk) 21:18, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

The 4th line doesn't look right. §hep^Talk 03:58, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

English Heraldry

There is a book, much referenced at English heraldry, by an unknown author and simply titled English Heraldry. If you have this book, please add the bibliographical information to the article. While I'm on the subject, here's a free tip: you may already be using these, but just in case, http://books.google.co.uk/ can be useful, but sometimes I find http://openlibrary.org/ more helpful. Both projects have digitized copies of *some* rare or very old books, and both are searchable by ISBN. These can be useful when tracking down sources, and can be useful research tools. There are also some useful tools on Wikipedia like Template:Cite web, Template:Cite book, and Template:LCCN. I hope that helps! Wilhelm_meis (talk) 11:39, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

It was my ambiguous shorthand, now corrected (may have possibly been confused with a book of a the name English heraldry by Boutell, but the new refs match up). I have used the sources above (thanks anyway), but I personally prefer the 'flip-book' feature of http://www.archive.org - Jarry1250 ^{(t, c)} 12:00, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Indre Østfold

I have concerns over the Indre Østfold article. You recently re-encyclopaedified it. Now, however, the creator has un-encyclopaedified the article by quite an extent into its former state. It's really starting to look like a travel guide again. SD5 (talk) 21:13, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Article creation

Didn't even realize that was going to become an issue, so long as I was doing things manually; thanks for the tip. I'll try and keep things down a bit. --User:AlbertHerring ^{Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla!} 21:10, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Yeah - I'm being overzealous again, aren't I? Sorry. If it's any consolation, once I'm done with the "S"s, "T" will be all that's left for me to look at. After that, I'm going to be cleaning some things up and creating talk pages, which should keep the new page queue free. (By the way, JVBot knows me and tends to patrol my edits when I make them, so don't worry about hitting them all manually. With luck they'll be cleared up pretty quickly.) --User:AlbertHerring ^{Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla!} 18:21, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Again, thanks for the tip. At the moment, what I'm doing is a little unusual for me; most of my newpage creation is a bit more manually oriented, so I don't know that I'd be getting that much use out of an account such as you describe. I'll definitely consider it, though, if I ever decide to do stuff like this on a more regular basis. --User:AlbertHerring ^{Io son l'orecchio e tu la bocca: parla!} 18:36, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Faraware

Yes, you're right, now that I look at the edit summaries. I didn't know he was speedying it as a hoax, and it looked like a good faith edit at first glance, but with minimal google search results, so I quickly prodded it to avoid a newbie from being bitten, but now that I take a closer look at the search results, they aren't referencing the same thing. Thanks for letting me know, ƒingers^on_Roids 16:55, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
