Wikipedia:WikiProject Aircraft

edit

Thanks for signing up for this project. It is a very busy and active project with lots going on and we can always use more help and especially a fresh set of eyes. If you haven't done so already you might want to add Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft to your watch list as this is where much of the background discussion occurs. You may also want to watch Wikipedia:New articles (Aircraft) as this is where newly created articles get listed for peer review. Having a look over these new articles is a great way to get a feel for how things are done on the project and also most new articles need reviewing anyway. If you have any questions you can leave me a note or post at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Aircraft, either way you will get a quick response. - Ahunt (talk) 15:45, 25 May 2017 (UTC) Ahunt Thanks Ral 33 16:44, 25 May 2017 (UTC)Reply

Sockpuppet investigation

edit
 

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Ral 33, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.

Ben Reynolds

edit

Hello Ral 33. I noticed you did a little tidying on the Ben Reynolds article ([1]). However, the whole article at that time was patently worthless, unreferenced and had in fact just been hi-jacked. It needed reverting to a previous version, which someone else has now done. I appreciate any attempts to improve articles, but would just ask you to look a little more closely at pages you are editing: Noyster (talk), 10:02, 6 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Official sockpuppet investigation response

edit

The evidence that was used against me was purely coincidental. I undid the deletion of the section a user submitted because I felt that Jim from idegon made a legitimate addition to the Frederick Douglass high school (Lexington Kentucky) article and I had something else to add. Instead of copy and pasting (as this would be plagiarism) I simply reverted the edit and added what I wanted to add.

population

edit

I notice you updated the population rank of Pasadena. I had noted it was wrong, and put a note on the talk page for population rank about the possibility of automating this. It seems something that should be done, so all pages would be right. Gah4 (talk) 06:08, 7 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Rolls-Royce Phantom (2018)/GARolls-Royce Phantom (2018)/GA1

Hello Ral 33,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Rolls-Royce Phantom (2018)/GARolls-Royce Phantom (2018)/GA1 for deletion, because it seems to be a test. Did you know that the Wikipedia Sandbox is available for testing out edits?

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

GA review for "Royals"

edit

I noticed that you picked up my GA nomination for a review. I managed to translate much of the information from the portuguese version (which is a featured article) so I know there will be some miscalculations in the accuracy of the translation. Despite this, the article has a substantial amount of information and I feel that it deserves to at least have a review to see if it meets the GA criteria. Just want to let you know this before you dive into the article. Thank you for picking this up for review! De88 (talk) 01:45, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

@De88: Let me just start off by saying, wow! First off it is difficult to make a good article, I’ve seen my fair share of bad ones. But to make a good article that was translated, that’s next level dedication! Thank you for working hard to improve Wikipedia! Ral 33 (talk) 01:54, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Thank you so much for understanding. To say I am a Lorde fan would be the biggest understatement ever. I will say that translating another article, especially one tagged as featured, is still one of the hardest things I had to work with in my time on this site. Given how much attention publications placed on this song and Lorde, I am not surprised at all that it is this long at over 100,000 bytes. Not only did I have to check every article to verify its credibility, some of them were unavailable, deleted, etc. I had to search the archive library to see if they were there. That led to me to delete a lot of great information that could not be properly sourced. De88 (talk) 02:11, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
@De88: Gotcha, I’m more of an 80’s fan myself. I’m currently wondering why one of the bots didn’t tag one of the 14 dead links as dead or try to rescue them... Ral 33 (talk) 02:30, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
@De88: Can you replace the old iTunes links that are dead with this: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/royals-deluxe-single/1035012004

And the old amazon music link with this:https://www.amazon.com/Royals-Lorde/dp/B00H04E7FI

Someone is complaining about my work on this review...Ral 33 (talk) 02:54, 2 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

I’ll definitely take care of it. I noticed that the article failed to pass the GA nomination but the banner on the “Royals” talk page has it listed under GA status. Just wanted to clarify if the article passed or failed. Why is someone complaining about your work on this review? That’s quite intriguing. De88 (talk) 21:12, 2 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
@De88: I passed it. I have no clue why someone is questioning my work. I guess people don’t see the things I do behind the scenes. I am very open about my process by showing the check marks and the status and updates. I thought that would be helpful since I’m a behind the scenes kind of person. Ral 33 (talk) 21:16, 2 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
I will submit the article for a c/e just so that someone doesn't place it under a GA reassessment in the future. Out of the 14 dead links, I was able to fix 7 of the iTunes and Amazon dead links. The article is quite long but what were the other 7 dead links? De88 (talk) 21:38, 2 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Talk:Royals (song)/GA2

edit

This review, if you could call it a review, is shocking. You can't find one single mistake, type, grammar error at all? And you've passed it despite stating that it has an "alarming" 14 dead links which are still present?  — Calvin999 15:53, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply

Greetings @Calvin999:, yes, because when you pass an article on the top of the talk page is says something like: feel free to review this or make inprovements. This is what I suggest you do instead of attacking my work. I think you mean typo instead of type by the way. I stand by my work as most of my review work is done behind the scenes. Thank you, Ral 33 (talk) 16:24, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
I'm not attacking anything, I'm saying this is not how how you conduct a review. You don't pass it when you highlight "alarming" faults and don't even allow the nominator to correct them.  — Calvin999 16:45, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Overall, this is a good article, I looked and most of the dead links can be fixed very quickly. That is not a big deal to me. I read the instructions thoroughly before I started reviewing articles. Ral 33 (talk) 16:47, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
It doesn't matter if it's not a big deal to you. You need to adhere to the criteria. 14 dead links is a lot, and that's a lot of information in the article which means isn't sourced.  — Calvin999 17:10, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Calvin999: As I said before, most of them are still active links just at different URL’s. Ral 33 (talk) 17:56, 1 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, Ral33, any article that contains sentences like this—"The message of "Royals" was compared to Nirvana's 1991 single "Smells Like Teen Spirit," for both decrying the pop industry of which became a part of." or this "The song is instrumented by electronic touches, finger snaps and bass. Musically compared to Grimes' works, "Royals" features minimalist instrumentation, consisting of only low bass and percussion, and features a "strong and merciless" hip hop beat accompanied by crackling finger that repeat and echo, as well as some electronic effects. Its low-fidelity production."—simply does NOT meet WP's good article criteria IMO.Twofingered Typist (talk) 13:50, 9 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Twofingered Typist: I am currently doing behind the scenes research to prepare a review. Please understand this before posting anymore comments about this topic. Thank you Ral 33 (talk) 00:29, 10 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
I don't understand. You've already closed the review and awarded it Good Article status. In any event, I've made my point. I am in the midst of a massive copy edit to bring the article up to GA standards in the writing/grammar etc... area. Twofingered Typist (talk) 13:04, 10 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Twofingered Typist: I am going to re-review it. Ral 33 (talk) 03:21, 12 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
As you wish, but the dead links have been fixed and I have finished the copy edit. I think the article meets GA criteria now.Twofingered Typist (talk) 11:46, 12 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Twofingered Typist: I have reviewed it but have not launched a re-review and I can confirm it appears to meet the criteria now. Thanks Ral 33 (talk) 02:35, 16 March 2018 (UTC)Reply
