== [[Towaco, New Jersey]] ==

Hello, this message is in regard to one of your recent [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Towaco,_New_Jersey&diff=377762988 edits]. I reverted this addition because the information contained, and linked to, an address. I do not believe such material is permitted per [[WP:DOB]]. [[User:Akerans|Akerans]] ([[User talk:Akerans|talk]]) 18:49, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
:Thank you for the courtesy of letting me know, and also for correcting my misstep.  Many Wikipedia articles about municipalities (e.g., [[Freeport, New York]]) list the names of notable residents.  Moreover, the Giudice's home address has been bandied about widely in the news because of that family's bankruptcy proceedings and public notices of an auction to be held there.  However, I wholeheartedly respect the Wikipedia policy you alerted me to, which protects the privacy of subjects' home addresses.  Therefore, to honor that policy, while at the same time adhering to the aforementioned common pratice of publishing sections such as, "[[Freeport, New York#Notable Freeporters|Notable Freeporters]]", I will post a modified entry supported by a different credible, supporting reference that does not specify the Giudice's actual home address.  I hope that will be acceptable.

== (The?) Bronx ==

Hi Froid, You've wandered into a long-standing/winded ongoing debate about whether the article should be The Bronx or the Bronx. RFC on the talk page going on right now. You're other edits were great, but I think its best if you hold off changing The to the until the debate gets resolved. They may all need to be reverted, because IMHO, The will prevail.

== November 2010 ==
[[File:Nuvola apps important.svg|25px]] You currently appear to be engaged in an '''[[Wikipedia:Edit warring|edit war]]'''&#32; according to the reverts you have made on [[:Self harm]]. Users who [[WP:DISRUPT|edit disruptively]] or refuse to [[WP:COLLABORATE|collaborate]] with others may be blocked if they continue. In particular the [[Wikipedia:Edit warring#The three-revert rule|three-revert rule]] states that making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block. If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the [[Wikipedia:Talk page guidelines|talk page]] to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording and content that gains [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] among editors. If unsuccessful then '''do not edit war even if you believe you are right'''. Post a request for help at an [[Wikipedia:Noticeboards|appropriate noticeboard]] or seek [[Wikipedia:Dispute resolution|dispute resolution]].

== [[The Willy Wonka Candy Company]] and [[Laffy Taffy]] ==

You added sections of "in popular culture" references to these articles, yet both were unsourced and the entries didn't do much to improve an encyclopedic understanding of the articles' subjects, so I removed them. If you want to write about how a subject has been received by the media you should find some reliable sources that discuss the subject's reception and add a summary of this into the article, citing the source as a reference.  Just listing everytime the subject has made an appearance in the media is [[WP:OR|original research]] and creates a cleanup headache down the line.

== Alphabetization on disambiguation pages ==

From a glance at your contributions, it appears you may be under the impression that disambiguation pages are supposed to be alphabetized as a rule. [[WP:MOSDAB#Order of entries|They're not.]] [[User:Theoldsparkle|Theoldsparkle]] ([[User talk:Theoldsparkle|talk]]) 14:53, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

I came here to give you the same message: please do not alphabetize dab pages. The entries should usually be in order of importance, or in some other topical order (such as by birth year for people with the same name). It would be helpful if you would go through your contribution history and undo every edit where you have alphabetized dab pages.--[[User:Srleffler|Srleffler]] ([[User talk:Srleffler|talk]]) 03:28, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

:Oftentimes the content on the disambiguation pages is RANDOMLY ordered, with no discernible logical or order of importance. In such cases, Wikipedia appears to be unprofessional and sloppy!  Such content should be ordered in some discernible, logical fashion, with a schema that is neither tacit nor random.  You'll note that the work I did improves rather than detracts from the "dab" pages I edited. Froid 10:41, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

::Yes, disambiguation pages are often sloppy and random, but not always. Many have been organized by people in accordance with the MOS's suggested logical criteria, and you appear to make no distinction in those cases, disrupting the logical and sanctioned order of entries in order to apply an order that is, at best, only modestly more ''usable'' than randomization. I disagree that your work is an improvement, at least in many cases, and I will feel free to revert such edits (that detract from the page) as long as they contradict the MOS guidelines. [[User:Theoldsparkle|Theoldsparkle]] ([[User talk:Theoldsparkle|talk]]) 14:02, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

::[http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lime&diff=next&oldid=437936641 An example of your alphabetizing a page to make it less logical]. Did you really find it so logically incoherent that a) the Substances section was near the top of the page because users who search for "lime" are probably more likely to be looking for the common building material than Limé, a French community of 187 people that isn't even called Lime? and b) that in the Substances section, it makes more sense to list the generic term first, followed by the more specific terms, rather than listing two specific terms and then the generic term and then another specific term? Perhaps you wouldn't be so convinced that alphabetization is the absolute optimum ordering system if you ever bothered to look at what systems were already in use. [[User:Theoldsparkle|Theoldsparkle]] ([[User talk:Theoldsparkle|talk]]) 14:13, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

::Your condesending tone is less than professional, uncollegial, and unwarranted. So take a chill pill. If you'll note, the top of the "dab" page includes a contents table/index, which allows users to easily find the contents of interest. You haven't convinced me that my work hasn't improved the pages I've edited.  On the other hand, you've done nothing to dispel the impression that many have about the less than favorable temperament of many Wikipedians. Froid 14:35, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

:::I would probably have used a friendlier tone if I'd been less cynical about the likelihood that you would re-consider your methods (or if you'd acknowledged my comment when I posted it a month ago). You're not a newbie; you've made thousands of edits in the last month alone, most of which seem to be doing the exact same thing. In my experience, people who edit like that tend to pay very little heed to suggestions that they change their patterns, no matter how courteously those suggestions are presented. Your lack of response to two concrete examples of how your editing style is irrational and damaging is strong enough affirmation of me that trying to discuss it with you is pointless. You like to alphabetize pages; you've rationalized in your head that this is a good thing; you're not going to discuss reasons that it may not be a good thing; if I come across a page that you've alphabetized or otherwise edited and I want to re-order it in order to improve it and bring it in line with guidelines, I'll feel free to do that. [[User:Theoldsparkle|Theoldsparkle]] ([[User talk:Theoldsparkle|talk]]) 14:57, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
::::Again with the 'tude!  Methinks part of your issue is the need to feel validated. Froid 15:08, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
:::::Disorder in an encyclopedia, as I stated earlier, is unprofessional and sloppy.  So if you choose to order things other than chronologically or alphabetically, it would be good to make explicit what the order is so users can easily find what they're seeking and so the order does NOT appear to be sloppy and random. Froid 15:10, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
::::::The MOS, as I linked in my original comment, explicitly lays out the guidelines for ordering entries on a page. These guidelines are designed to make the most likely targets -- the topics that have dedicated articles and are most similar to the disambiguated term -- the most visible. Someone who searches for "Lime" is more likely to be searching for a town called Lime than a town called Limé; therefore, we put the town called Lime at the top. Someone who searches for "Lime" is more likely to be looking for a general discussion of the building material referred to as lime than for a specific variant such as hydraulic lime; therefore, we put the generic material at the top. If you disagree, then you should go to the MOS talk page and propose changing the guidelines to advise simply sorting everything alphabetically. (Also, you can continue making contrived remarks attempting to get my goat if you want, but I suggest you aim for something not quite so random. Yeah, my comment that I'm resigned to your ignoring me and continuing to make bad edits and I'll just fix them if I feel like it --  I sure am just begging you to validate me, aren't I? For your own sake I ''really'' hope you're not oblivious to the hypocrisy in making remarks like that one as you berate me for being rude and condescending.) [[User:Theoldsparkle|Theoldsparkle]] ([[User talk:Theoldsparkle|talk]]) 15:35, 5 August 2011 (UTC)
:::::::I hope my comments haven't deterred you from participating in Wikipedia. That was not my intention. [[User:Theoldsparkle|Theoldsparkle]] ([[User talk:Theoldsparkle|talk]]) 00:51, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
::::::::Thank you for your recent note. Would you please read my post of August 7 on Srleffler's User Talk page ([[User_talk:Srleffler|here]])? Froid 15:15, 11 August 2011 (UTC)

::Froid, even if the ordering on a page is random, alphabetization is not appropriate. The guidelines specify how entries on dab pages should be ordered. Your edits do not comply with this specification. Either put pages into the correct order, or leave the ordering alone. Do not arbitrarily alphabetize dab pages.--[[User:Srleffler|Srleffler]] ([[User talk:Srleffler|talk]]) 17:40, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

== Removal of red links from dab pages ==

Entries on dab pages are allowed to have two links if the primary one is red. In [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Gathering&diff=next&oldid=443099164 this case] you removed the link to the title of a film (which was a red link). The red link is there because an article may eventually be created on that film. If this seems unlikely, then ''the whole entry should be deleted''. See [[MOS:DABRL]] for info on red links on dab pages, and note that [[MOS:DABENTRY]] says "Each entry should have exactly one ''navigable (blue)'' link" (emphasis mine). An entry can have two links, as long as one of them is nonworking (red). The red link has to be to a viable article title.

Sorry to be raising another issue with you while the previous one is still being discussed. I'm not trying to pick on you. It's just that editors who enjoy doing large numbers of technical clean-up edits (e.g. to dab pages) can do a lot of damage very quickly if they are not aware of all the guidelines.--[[User:Srleffler|Srleffler]] ([[User talk:Srleffler|talk]]) 05:55, 7 August 2011 (UTC)

== [[Page Six]] in "See Also" section of [[Page 6]] ==

Hi there,

I removed your link to [[Page Six]] in the "see also" section of [[Page 6]]. The "See also" section is normally used for listing related articles likely to be of relevance or interest to the article that precedes it.

The NY Post "Page Six" column/magazine is unrelated (i.e. it only required mentioning to clarify any potential confusion over the similar name), so a disambiguation "[[Wikipedia:Hatnote|hatnote]]" is more appropriate. (There was already one in the article, so I left it in place).

Hope this helps, [[User:Ubcule|Ubcule]] ([[User talk:Ubcule|talk]]) 22:13, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

==Jon Roberts in Hollywood==
I have reverted your edit adding Jon Roberts as a notable resident of Hollywood, Florida because the article about Jon Roberts has no mention of Hollywood, and the citation you placed on the entry was to an advertisement for his book.

==July 2012 Study of authors of health-related Wikipedia pages==

Dear Author/Froid

My name is Nuša Farič and I am a Health Psychology MSc student at University College London (UCL). I am currently running a quantitative study entitled Who edits health-related Wikipedia pages and why? I am interested in the editorial experience of people who edit health-related Wikipedia pages. I am interested to learn more about the authors of health-related pages on Wikipedia and what motivations they have for doing so. I am currently contacting the authors of randomly selected articles and I noticed that someone at this address recently edited an article on Methamphetamine.
I would like to ask you a few questions about you and your experience of editing the above mentioned article. If you would like more information about the project, please visit my user page (Hydra_Rain) and if interested, please visit my Talk page or e-mail me on nusa.faric.11@ucl.ac.uk. Also, others interested in the study may contact me! If I do not hear back from you I will not contact this account again. Thank you very much in advance.

Greetings.  While I appreciate the effort and research done on suicides, they are not appropriate for these articles.  Copy-cat suicides can happen just to be included in such lists, and we really don't need that.  From my point of view, no suicides are significant, except to their family and friends, and no names should be included.  If people want to die this way, we can mention that fact, and maybe what's being done to make it harder to do, but going beyond that is not a good idea.  My opinion only. - [[User:Denimadept|Denimadept]] ([[User talk:Denimadept|talk]]) 07:54, 30 July 2012 (UTC)
::Hello, Denimadept - While those names have been publicly documented (e.g., in the citations I provided), publishing them in Wikipedia is an issue I certainly won't press, as I don't want to contribute in any way to encouraging copycats or to glorifying suicides. I agree with you, however, that it's a good idea to mention suicide-prevention efforts.  I also think it's important to provide information or links within suicide bridge articles about how painful it is to die by jumping/falling off a bridge, as many news reports (as in the case of Tyler Clementi) merely cite drowning, bruising and blunt injuries (a practice which euphemizes the gory details and does nothing to dissuade potential jumpers).  To whit, here's an excerpt and associated citation from [[Suicide_of_Tyler_Clementi#Suicide]]: "The medical examiner's autopsy report cites [[drowning]] as the cause of death, and notes [[Blunt trauma|blunt impact]] injuries to his torso."<ref>{{cite news|accessdate=29 July 2012|publisher=abcnews.go.com|url=http://abcnews.go.com/US/suicide-rutgers-university-freshman-tyler-clementi-stuns-veteran/story?id=11763784|

::Hello, Richard - Regarding your copycats inquiry: I am unaware of any such exact case.  However, two somewhat-related instances have been publicized.  One (I can't recall where I read about it) is the case of a professional Hollywood stunt man, who jumped from the bridge in connection with a feature film that scripted that action.  The other instance, posted at [[Golden_Gate_Bridge#Suicides]], was a really stupid stunt on the part of Windsor High School student Luhe "Otter" Vilagomez, who on March 10, 2011 sought to impress his schoolmates by jumping on a dare. Fortunately, he survived and fared better than most jumpers, including those who've survived.<ref>{{cite web | last = Preuitt | first = Lori | date = March 10, 2011 | url = http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/local/North-Bay-Student-Survives-Jump-From-Golden-Gate-Bridge-117769468.html | title = Student Survives Jump From Golden Gate Bridge | work=NBC Bay Area | publisher=NBC Bay Area | accessdate =March 10, 2011 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|accessdate=29 July 2012|

:I understand the names are in the cited sources.  I'm glad we agree on this.  It's one thing for a newspaper to document a death for one day, just after it happened, but given that WP keeps such stuff up for an indefinite time, I'm glad we can agree to leave it out.  If people want the details, they're welcome to check the cites. :-/  The more substantial "suicides" section at the GGB article seems appropriate.

Hi Froid. Thanks for contributing to [[United States Army Corps of Engineers]].

== Noble Savage ==

Hi Froid,

Your section on the Noble Savage Today is entirely without references. I think I understand what you are trying to say, namely that the motion pictures you list arguably depict tribal or primitive people in an idealized or "unrealistic" way, but you need to back up your statements with citations from a reliable source, otherwise it comes off as a mere opinion of yours and is not encyclopedic in tone or content. Thanks. [[User:Mballen|Mballen]] ([[User talk:Mballen|talk]]) 22:26, 15 November 2012 (UTC)
:Mballen - Click that article's "View history" tab, and you'll see that I edited the article's preexisting content but did not provide said content.  My only contribution, besides copyediting, was to add a link under "See also/Cultural examples" that directs readers to [[Altamont_Free_Concert#Security|Perspective that contributed to Hells Angels' use as security for some 1960s rock concerts]]. That section documents that fact that Ken Kesey referred to the Hell's Angels as "noble savages", explains his rationale, and provides a credible citation. -  Froid 22:29, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

:: My sincere apologies and thanks for the clarification. I've forgotten how to add needs citation tag, actually, or would have done so! [[Special:Contributions/173.77.77.172|173.77.77.172]] ([[User talk:173.77.77.172|talk]]) 23:51, 16 November 2012 (UTC) [[User:Mballen|Mballen]] ([[User talk:Mballen|talk]]) 23:58, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

::Hi, Froid, I had a look at the citation from James Miller and found that, so far as I can see, it was he and not Ken Kesey who used the word "noble savages" to describe the Hells Angels and I therefore changed the article to reflect this. It is interesting that rock critic Miller happens also to be a professor of political science who wrote a book about Rousseau, accusing Rousseau of being a precursor to totalitarian democracy and even Stalinism. Therefore, I would conclude he was not a neutral observer but that in using the epithet "noble savage" had an ax to grind. Best. [[User:Mballen|Mballen]] ([[User talk:Mballen|talk]]) 22:52, 19 November 2012 (UTC) 

:::Also, thanks for the heads' up about how to insert citation needed. Very useful.

== Broken City ==

Hi, Froid. I don't think it is necessary to recap Allen's career in ''Broken City''{{'}}s "Production" section. I do understand the partial relevance of mentioning what similar stuff he has directed before. Maybe we could do a "Notes" section like [[American Beauty (film)]] has? [[User:Erik|Erik]] ([[User talk:Erik|talk]] &#124; [[Special:Contributions/Erik|contribs]]) 00:44, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

== character's ==

Hi Froid, can you please explain how "character's" is correct and not simply "character". The sentence "Sarah Wayne Callies is still credited among the main cast, despite her character's being killed off" doesn't seem right. I've re-read it a bunch of times, and it seems wrong. For example, "Sarah Wayne Callies' character is killed of" is correct, but surely "Sarah Wayne Callies character's is killed of" is not. Why would "character" need an 's when it's referring to one character, not multiple. I'm genuinely confused, and I really want to know why that is correct. It'd be great if you could explain it. Thanks. [[User:Drovethrughosts|Drovethrughosts]] ([[User talk:Drovethrughosts|talk]]) 22:09, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
:Hi Drovethrughosts - The rule is:  use the possessive case before gerunds (words ending with -ing). [http://www.grammarbook.com/punctuation/apostro.asp See rules 12 and 13 at GrammarBook.com: Apostrophes] Froid 22:27, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
::Okay, those examples make perfect sense. But do you not agree the sentence still doesn't sound right at all? Or is it just me? While repeating the sentence back to myself another hundred times, I figured it makes sense when in future tense, "her character's being killed off", as in "her character ''is'' being killed of" but her character ''was/has been'' killed off. Am I on to something or am I still in the wrong? Thanks. [[User:Drovethrughosts|Drovethrughosts]] ([[User talk:Drovethrughosts|talk]]) 22:58, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
:::Drovethrughosts - The explanations for '''your thinking''' [note the use of the possessive pronoun "your", followed by the gerund "thinking"] the corrected sentence doesn't sound right are: 
:::#You're only newly acquainted with the grammar rule that sentence obeys, so you haven't yet developed a reliable ear for the proper usage, and
:::#The rule is commonly broken, both orally and in writing, so you've become accustomed to such violations. 
:::I'm glad you followed up on this issue, because we Wikipedia editors should take care to avoid making grammatical errors as well as correct those we find.
:::Best wishes, Froid 00:37, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
:::: Any chance the word "being" can be replaced with "been" in that sentence (and still be grammatically correct, ''it has to be''). To me, that sounds perfectly correct and won't drive me nuts everytime I read that sentence, lol. I feel there's a tense problem (been -> being) with that sentence, and that's what fucking me up, no? Thanks again. [[User:Drovethrughosts|Drovethrughosts]] ([[User talk:Drovethrughosts|talk]]) 16:30, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
:::::Actually, the use of "being" is incorrect. The sentence should read "the character's having been killed off", so I've made that correction. Thanks for pointing it out. Froid 16:42, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
::::::Wait, can it just say "despite her character has been killed off"? ''That'' sounds perfectly right. Thanks for dealing with me over just a minor thing (and probably slightly annoyed), ha. [[User:Drovethrughosts|Drovethrughosts]] ([[User talk:Drovethrughosts|talk]]) 17:07, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
:::::::Drovethrughosts - Your proposed replacement phrase, "Despite her character has been killed off", is sooooo incorrect; ouch! The sentence as currently written is grammatically correct; please don't change it. 

:::::::You've already acknowledged that you're unfamiliar with the rule of grammar that applies in this instance and, consequently, applying that rule [[Clear_(The_Walking_Dead)#Production|here]] doesn't sound right to you.  May I respectfully suggest, then, that the appropriate next step is NOT to mangle the sentence to make yourself feel comfortable, but rather for you to either: (1) give yourself time to become comfortable with the grammatically correct sentence construction , or (2) let this issue go and move on.

== [[Pullman porter]] article ==

Thanks so much for your excellent copy edit of the article!  I will fix the citations you asked for, but I'm not sure what you are suggesting for the "out of date" tag.  I wrote the article and I've searched the web for any information I could find and included it.  What were you suggesting for updates?  [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 18:54, 26 March 2014 (UTC)

:Hi Gandydancer:
:Thanks for the kind feedback!  The section of the article I labeled "outdated" indicated that two men were SCHEDULED to speak at the museum's 50th anniversary; since that date has past, the section needs updating to indicate whether or not they ACTUALLY spoke. Would you please edit that section to indicate whether they ACTUALLY did it or not?

:FYI, my great uncle was a Pullman porter, so for me that article is especially interesting and important. Thank you for writing and maintaining it! [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 03:42, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

::Of course I was aware that it would have been good to follow up that information but I've never been able to find a follow up.  In my experience this is not unusual, I run into the problem all the time.  I reworded the information and hope that you do not replace the tag.  I could have removed the men's names, but I have so much respect for these men who faced so much discrimination and yet somehow endured.  I like the idea of having the "power" of adding their name to wikipedia--it is one of the few joys that an editor gets around this place. :)  I did it in my [[Gandy dancer]] article as well.  Where was your great uncle living when He was a porter?  Was he black?  [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 23:56, 28 March 2014 (UTC)

:::Hi again, Gandydancer,
:::Love your wiki handle! Are you a current or former railroad worker?

:::I see what you mean about finding updated info about actual attendees and won't re-post the "outdated" tag. Instead, I posted references providing further info about the two former Pullman porters who were scheduled to speak at the anniversary event.

:::Yes, my great uncle was black.  He's originally from Virginia, but I'm unsure where he was living at the time he became a Pullman porter (and therefore what city/state he'd have listed in the registry).  I look forward to learning much more from my folks.

::::What a great find for the article!  Again, you have been a great help in both your info hunting and your edits.  I do the best I can, but I really am not at all gifted when it comes to writing.  

::::No, I didn't work on the railroads.  I am retired--I was an RN.  But I actually did sleep in a berth when I was little, perhaps four years old.  It was during the war years and my dad had been shipped out and "Mama" took us on the train to live in our family home in Northern Minnesota while he was gone.  

::::A black uncle!  Not too many white people can say that!  Yes, do learn everything you can from your parents.  Information that is not written down has a way of getting lost forever.

::::I'm going to use some of the new info you found in the article so please check back later and see if I've left more work for you. ;)  [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 23:18, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

:::::Hi Gandydancer,
:::::Wish I'd written down what Mom told me about my Pullman porter uncle, or requested more details sooner, as she now can't remember. Fortunately, we're having a family reunion this summer, so I'll ask around then.

::::: RE: "A black uncle!  Not too many white people can say that!" Why do you think I'm white?

::::: RE: "I'm going to use some of the new info you found in the article so please check back later and see if I've left more work for you. ;)" - It's fun collaborating on an article in this way!  - Cheers, [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 23:49, 30 March 2014 (UTC)

::::::Why do I think you're white?  Well, I did wonder...but in my experience a lot of people here do not like to offer any personal information.  It's something I don't understand as I'm not that way at all.  Now I'm feeling a little embarrassed about it all... [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 02:10, 2 April 2014 (UTC)

== OER inquiry ==
Hi {{BASEPAGENAME}}, I'm sending you this message because you're one of about 300 users who have recently edited an article in the umbrella category of [[open educational resources]] (OER) (or [[open education]]). In evaluating several projects we've been working on (e.g. the [[Wikipedia:School_of_Open_course|WIKISOO]] course and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Open|WikiProject Open]]), my colleague [[User:Peteforsyth|Pete Forsyth]] and I have wondered who chooses to edit OER-related articles and why. Regardless of whether you've taken the WIKISOO course yourself - and/or never even ''heard'' the term OER before - we'd be extremely grateful for your participation in this [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1Xc5vpYN1EH6cWlMnuJKSofKgCrWjEQ4amyPTxPhRqzg/viewform '''brief, anonymous survey'''] before 27 April. No personal data is being collected. If you have any ideas or questions, please get in touch. My [[User talk:Snarfa|talk]] page awaits. Thanks for your support! - [[User:Snarfa|Sara FB]] ([[User talk:Snarfa|talk]]) 20:40, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

== Don't tag... ==

...[[WP:SOFIXIT|fix it]].  Drive-by tagging simply leaves the work for other people to do, it's much more collegial (and efficient) if you actually '''''fix''''' the problem instead. [[User:Beyond My Ken|BMK]] ([[User talk:Beyond My Ken|talk]]) 02:31, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

::There's [[Template:Citation needed|no prohibition]] against noting cn's and unreferenced articles, pages, and sections.  Moreover, both noting the need for references and contributing said references contribute to improving Wikipedia. Sometimes I do fix the problem (which cleans up work the original contributor left undone); at other times while reading an article that I see needs citations or better references, I indicate that need, but I may be focused on another agenda or have limited time to chase down references, in which cases it would be INEFFICIENT for me to switch gears to go on a reference hunt. In still other instances, I might be reading Wikipedia on a device (such as my phone or ereader) that permits me to note the need for references but is ill-equipped to search for and/or type them in. Whatever the case - whether I hunt down and fix a reference or not - it would be irresponsible to notice the need for references yet not indicate that finding.  [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 03:01, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

::Also, I see you have reverted my notes indicating the need for references. You appear to be unfamiliar with the rules for using references - one cannot merely state facts without providing supporting evidence.  If you dislike providing such evidence, don't just remove the tags; let someone else provide such support. And please read one or more of the following guides for citing references, found at such links as these: 
*[[Wikipedia:Citation_needed]]
*[[Template:Unreferenced_section]]
*https://www.google.com/search?q=wikipedia+cite+references&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&channel=fflb

::I'm going to replace my good faith and well-founded edits. Let's not get into an edit war; if you dislike my notations, then please call in a mediator. [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 03:10, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

::I've requested input from a third party to help resolve this: see [[Wikipedia:No_original_research/Noticeboard#Bryant_Park]]. [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 03:24, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

:::Yeah, 9 years here and 145K+ edits means that I'm "unfamiliar" with referencing.  Stop being so fucking lazy and fix a problem when you see it. And stop tagging "the sky is blue" facts. [[User:Beyond My Ken|BMK]] ([[User talk:Beyond My Ken|talk]]) 04:43, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
::::I've expanded my request for intervention (regarding your reactions to my tags pointing out unreferenced and underreferenced content) to now also include attention to your [[Wikipedia:DISRUPTION#Dealing_with_disruptive_editors|disruptive]] and [[Wikipedia:Civility#Incivility|uncivil]] ([[Wikipedia:Civility#Identifying_incivility|category 1a 1b, 1c, and 1d]]) behavior.

== Help please ==

Hi there Froid, would you please take a look at the first two paragraphs under the "Later events" section of the [[Emmett Till]] article where I just made a few changes?  It's a GA and I'd like to get it right.  It's mostly the placement of commas that concerns me, but any other needed tweaks would be appreciated.  Thanks.  [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 13:14, 17 June 2014 (UTC)

== The Wikipedia Library:  New Account Coordinators Needed ==

Hi Books & Bytes recipients:  [[WP:TWL|The Wikipedia Library]] has been expanding rapidly and we need some help!  We currently have 10 signups for free account access open and several more in the works... In order to help with those signups, distribute access codes, and manage accounts we'll need 2-3 more '''''Account Coordinators'''''.  

It takes about an hour to get up and running and then only takes a couple hours per week, flexible depending upon your schedule and routine.  If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at [[User:Ocaasi|my talk page]] or shoot me an email at: jorlowitz{{@}}gmail.com.

== Commas ==

Hello, thanks for your edit to [[How to Win Friends and Influence People]]. However, I've removed the commas you added to the article because I find them quite clunky; perhaps it's an English variant issue. '''[[User:Graham87|Graham]]'''[[User talk:Graham87|<span style="color:green;">87</span>]] 15:01, 30 June 2014 (UTC)
: Hi [[User talk:Graham87]], I appreciate your letting me know, but I've reverted your reversion. The commas are not an "English variant" (i.e., style) issue but rather a [http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/act/chapter5section1.rhtml basic punctuation]/ issue; without them, the article is grammatically incorrect. In case you feel strongly about this matter, I don't want either of us to provoke an edit war and have opened a discussion on the matter at [[Talk:How_to_Win_Friends_and_Influence_People#Commas_debate]].

== [[Digital rights management]] ==

Hi Froid,

I have rmeoved a section you added to this article as there was potential for it to be legally contentious. As the information is hosted in the Unied States linking to websites that provide advice and assistance with removing DRM protection as mentioned earlier in the article may fall foul of the following. ''In 1998, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) was passed in the United States to impose criminal penalties on those who make available technologies whose primary purpose and function are to circumvent content protection technologies''.
I feel that the information may still be able to be included without the link itself but as it was your edit you may want the opportunity to reword the section. If you want me to readd it with the potentially problematic bit removed just drop me a message.

Hi. I reverted your edits on [[Shuri Castle]] because you made disruptive edits. I will readd the italics to the game titles. And why did you add a literature section and then removed it? '''[[User:Sturmgewehr88|<span style="background:black"><span style="color:red">ミーラー強斗武</span></span>]]''' ([[User_talk:Sturmgewehr88|StG88ぬ会話]]) 03:38, 31 December 2014 (UTC)
::Hello and Happy 2015,
"Disruptive edits"? Yikes! That sounds serious, and akin to vandalism. I certainly didn't think my good faith edits were disruptive.  I'd be grateful if you would please explain why you found my edits disruptive.  

I removed the literature section I'd added because I was editing while using my cellphone.  I wanted to postpone that work until I was at my computer, from which I could more easily find a more precise citation. I'll hold off on adding that section, pending your reply. - [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 12:55, 3 January 2015 (UTC)
:::{{re|Froid}} [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Shuri_Castle&diff=next&oldid=640320843 This edit] was disruptive, as it made half of the top paragraph run off the page. You just made small wikicode mistakes that could have large effects. The "literature" and "games" section are a little unnecessary because of how small the "in popular culture" section is, but the book you were adding was fine and should be readded. Happy new year!

== HELP WANTED:  Good copy editor needed ==

Hi there Froid, I have (mostly) written an article, [[Lake City, Colorado]], and I'm looking for a copy editor.  I'm almost done and I'd sure like some feedback about it if you have any, and a copy edit.  Are you interested and have the time? [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 12:47, 1 February 2015 (UTC)
:Hello [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]], Happy 2015! I made some copyedits, and added some details and references to your very interesting article. Cheers, [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 14:36, 1 February 2015 (UTC)

::Thank you so much for the fine edit.  I hope that I did not hurt your feelings, but I cut back some of the Alferd Packer stuff since he has his own article.  Hope all is well with you.  Do you have time to do more copy editing?  It would be good to have someone go through the Ebola in Africa article that I have worked on.  We had a good copy editor for awhile but after the first talk page squawk (not about her work--just something she could not resist) she left and never came back.  We have one editor that takes care of some things, but he does not improve phrasing the way she did and you do.  Best, Gandy  [[User:Gandydancer|Gandydancer]] ([[User talk:Gandydancer|talk]]) 23:07, 2 February 2015 (UTC)

== Re: [[Boss (TV series)]] ==

Thanks for your work on this article. I ''loved'' this show. Would be a great article to promote to GA status one day (and certainly easier than articles for shows which had many more seasons). Keep up the great work! ---[[User:Another Believer|<span style="color:navy">Another Believer</span>]] <sub>([[User talk:Another Believer|<span style="color:#C60">Talk</span>]])</sub> 21:15, 4 February 2015 (UTC)

== The Borgias ==

"my change was valid and more appropriate than what you wrote; fyi - you do not own the article." ''My'' change was equally if not more valid, it undid a mistake ''you'' made and a hyphen was not inappropriate (it being one of those "differences between British English and American English" thingies). To suggest that I might think I "own" an article I had never looked at before and will never look at again is laughable. For your outstanding edit summary, and your careful editing - which you partially undid yourself, literally one minute later - you are my '''drongo of the day''' for 5 February 2015. Congratulations, there is no prize. [[User:YSSYguy|YSSYguy]] ([[User talk:YSSYguy|talk]]) 19:06, 5 February 2015 (UTC)

== [[HM Prison Bedford]] and [[Bedford Hills Correctional Facility for Women]] ==

Hi, I'm sorry but I've reverted your edit again. It's tricky to fit everything into the edit summary so I thought I would start up a discussion with you. Basically, the see also section of an article should be for related subjects, not similar or ambiguous article titles. I don't think there's any confusion between a prison called Bedford and one called Bedford Hills, but if you think there is, it's better to use {{tl|distinguish}} at the top of the article, instead of placing a link in a "see also" section. I don't think someone looking for Bedford Hills will end up at the HMP Bedford article, but do you? Thanks. –[[User:AnemoneProjectors|<span style="color:green; font-family:Tahoma;">anemone</span>]][[User talk:AnemoneProjectors#top|<span style="color:#BA0000; font-family:Tahoma;">projectors</span>]]– 13:12, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

== Easter eggs in the Ellis Peters articles ==

{{U|Froid}} If you look at the histories of the articles on the Ellis Peters novels featuring Cadfael, you will see that other editors undid what you insist on doing, calling what you did an "Easter egg." I think that means that real title of the link is obscured by using only part of it, leading to a surprise for the person following the link. I am not willing to believe that you have checked every page in English language Wikipedia that links to those controversial 'year in literature' pages for the format of the link, and clearly you have not looked at the edit history of the articles you recently altered. I agreed to do the link the way the higher level editors described, and they let the link to the 'year in literature' page remain in the article, which seems a fair bargain. The year in literature pages have improved a bit over the years, including more events across the world. Their first reaction was to delete the link altogether. I am not one for edit wars, nor for name calling about links or about commas and italics. I hope you can find the edit history, and see that you are reversing the reversal, and stop making the change in these articles, as you did in [[The Leper of Saint Giles]] and other novels in the Cadfael series.   --[[User:Prairieplant|Prairieplant]] ([[User talk:Prairieplant|talk]]) 06:32, 21 July 2015 (UTC)
:The "Ellis Peters cabal" can call it what they like, but they've isolated themselves into an iconoclastic bubble. Wikipedia has been specifically engineered to permit/encourage such so-called "Easter egg" links which are among other purposes, meant to be used in the way I did in the edits to which you are referring. [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 04:23, 26 August 2015 (UTC)
::{{U|Froid}} The Ellis Peters cabal? Do you have a list of names of editors who belong to that group? There are many editors for those articles, I think. When I added my bits to those articles, I was still pretty new to Wikipedia editing, and happy to learn from others how to contribute in a useful way. Some of the editors were very good writers, able to teach a lot with a timely edit. I failed to detect a cabal. And of course, I am still learning how to contribute in a useful way. Is this Easter egg thing discussed somewhere on Wikipedia? Besides the corrections I was asked to make, or course.  --[[User:Prairieplant|Prairieplant]] ([[User talk:Prairieplant|talk]]) 03:42, 27 August 2015 (UTC)
: You're kidding, right? I call it a "cabal", somewhat tongue-in-cheek, because the editors of those pages have decided they dislike the accepted Wikipedia practices of typing publication/release dates in parentheses or of linking those dates to larger pages.  Hence, my use of the term to describe the coordinated efforts of multiple practitioners, to achieve a common goal.  I'm surprised I have to explain this.

== David Chase Vox article retraction ==

Hi. Here Chase denies what Vox said: http://www.vulture.com/2014/08/david-chase-statement-response-to-tony-soprano-didnt-die.html . Even at the end of the Vox article, there is the mandatory mention of a retraction by Vox themselves, with a link to this: http://www.vox.com/2014/8/27/6076621/david-chase-responds-to-our-sopranos-piece . The Vox article has been criticized as a sensationalist fabrication meant to attract views, it does disservice to readers to know about it, as it may confuse them about Chase's overall stance towards the finale. We must not post journalist's lies to give them any undeserved attention. If Chase denies it, the article loses its legitimacy as being correct or notable. I hope you'll agree with me and change your mind about mentioning the Vox article. Even mentioning it and then its retraction would be confusing to readers, I think. The liars do not deserve any attention. [[User:TheBearPaw|TheBearPaw]] ([[User talk:TheBearPaw|talk]]) 06:19, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
::Thank you for your prompt response and for the citations!  Though I thoroughly understand your point of view, I disagree.  Rationale: you and I are having a private discussion about this matter, yet many others are not privy to the retractions.  Moreover, it's possible Chase said - sarcastically, and out of frustration to shut her up - exactly what the reporter printed, and later regretted doing so when it made it into print without the retraction he would likely have voiced in that same meeting. Whatever the truth is, the article is publicly available, its existence should be noted, and (I believe) so should Chase's rebuttal.

== Please stop that ==

I've just reverted the inappropriate formatting at [[Poisoned candy myths]] again.  Please read [[WP:ELCITE]].  [[WP:Citation templates]] do not belong in the ==External links== section.  Correct formatting is typically similar to <code><nowiki>[https://www.example.com Title of page] at Some Website</nowiki></code>, without the authors, dates, publisher, or other details that would be desirable or even essential in a cited source.

Also, there's no {{para|date}} parameter in the {{tl|snopes}} template, so adding it was pointless.  [[User:WhatamIdoing|WhatamIdoing]] ([[User talk:WhatamIdoing|talk]]) 22:35, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
:Hello,
Articles listed but not external links are "Further reading", should be formatted as articles, and should not be placed in external links, so I'm putting them there.  It's not inappropriate to date (or accessdate) links from websites, including Snopes, as web pages may change materially between the time they're posted and the time Wikipedia users read them.

== Instalments ==

Please stop calling the Flavia Albia novels "installments" of the series. For a start, the UK spelling has only one "l", but the word suggests an inoomplete entity, like an instalment of a story told in weekly instalments in a magazine, rather than a full free-standing book.

I've reverted your edits - in my view, the previous version presented the information in a much better format.

[[File:1 CJH Women in Jewish History Editathon May 4 2012.JPG|right|200px]]
Join us for a full Sunday of social Wikipedia editing at the [[Center for Jewish History]] (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to Women in Jewish History.

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. 

Expanding coverage of Jewish women on Wikipedia makes these women and their creations discoverable, addresses the gender bias on Wikipedia in a positive way, and works to correct imbalances archival collecting practice and institutional projects that have historically silenced women's narratives.

A training session on editing Wikipedia will be held at 12:30 pm. Experienced Wikipedians will be on-hand to assist throughout the day. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand. 

Light refreshments will be provided.

Make edits! Ask questions! Be bold!

*Sunday June 5 '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/WomeninJewishHistory2016|Women in Jewish History Edit-a-thon]]''' (''Participants have to bring their own laptops and power cords'').
:: '''Time:''' ''12:00 pm – 5:00 pm''
:: '''Location:''' ''[[Center for Jewish History]], 15 West 16th Street (between 5th and 6th Avenues), New York City, New York 10011'' 

Newcomers are very welcome! Bring your friends and colleagues! --[[User:Pharos|Pharos]] ([[User talk:Pharos|talk]]) 15:02, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

== Citation changes in Newark article ==

[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Newark,_New_Jersey&diff=724600737&oldid=724454629 Your recent edit] to the article for [[Newark, New Jersey]] made several changes to citations, none of which were either necessary or appropriate. Per [[WP:CITEVAR]], the citation style used in the article should be consistent and shouldn't be changed arbitrarily. [[User:Alansohn|Alansohn]] ([[User talk:Alansohn|talk]]) 14:04, 10 June 2016 (UTC)
:I agree with the importance of consistency. However, in my view, it's important not only for references (which rather than being maintained in the state they are in, should ALL be changed to conform with Wikipedia's style guidelines as well as copyedited to correct errors), but for grammar/mechanics, encyclopaediac ordering of contents (e.g., alphabetically, chronologically, or in accordance with some other appropriate scheme when applicable), and other issues competent editors attend to, as well. The changes I made (which you inappropriately reverted) addressed the aforementioned issues I cited and, as such, were appropriate and needed, not arbitrary. Since you appear to be inordinately proprietary about the article, I suggest you redirect the time and energy you're investing in guarding its ''status quo'' - which is counterproductive, iconoclastic, uncollegial, unprofessional, and not at all user-friendly (as you're obstructing efforts to improve the article) - into addressing the many elements of the article which require improvement.  

:I also suggest that you adopt another approach to working on this collaborative project that is Wikipedia. Your talk page indicates you have had similar clashes with other editors and have been cited multiple times for edit warring, but you don't appear to have reformed your behavior. As you've wasted my time by reverting my edits and have ignored my earlier advice to seek third-party intervention, if you disagree with them, I've now joined the ranks of editors who have cited you for edit warring, as noted on your talk page.

== Wikipedia rules and regulations ==

Wikipedia has a series of rules and regulations that are to guide our editing activity. One of them is [[WP:CITEVAR]], which states '''"Editors should not attempt to change an article's established citation style merely on the grounds of personal preference, to make it match other articles, or without first seeking consensus for the change. As with spelling differences, it is normal practice to defer to the style used by the first major contributor or adopted by the consensus of editors already working on the page, unless a change in consensus has been achieved. If the article you are editing is already using a particular citation style, you should follow it; if you believe it is inappropriate for the needs of the article, seek consensus for a change on the talk page."'''{{parabr}}You may also want to read [[WP:BRD]], which makes clear that once you've been bold and been reverted, you need to start discussion to obtain consensus for the changes you seek to make{{Parabr}}I'm not sure that you are fully aware of how Wikipedia works and the fact that your report on [[WP:3RRN]] was improperly formatted and thus rejected raises deep and fundamental questions of competence. While I do enjoy the claim that my edits are "iconoclastic", you wold be well served to step back and start over with the edits to the article for [[Newark, New Jersey]], which have been reverted to the status quo ante, per WP:BRD.{{parabr}} I encourage you to start observing Wikipedia guidelines that specify leaving citation styles unchanged. I look forward to your attempts to discuss these issues in a collegial manner on the article's talk page and obtaining consensus before making changes not backed by policy.  [[User:Alansohn|Alansohn]] ([[User talk:Alansohn|talk]]) 04:36, 14 June 2016 (UTC)
: Firstly, you contradict yourself.  On the one hand, you state you look forward to attempts to discuss matters in a collegial manner on the article's talk page; on the other, you (erroneously and uncollegially) impugn my competence. Additionally, since you raise the matter of competence, I point to the fact that I am not interested in imposing my personal style of citations, but rather the style dictated by Wikipedia's own style guidelines, for which reference/citation templates were created for a reason, and without my input.  All editors would do well to invest time learning and applying those, rather than clinging to and guarding attempts to update another style they adopted, which differs from the style Wikipedians invested talent and effort to encourage use of by creating a template to make its use user-friendly.[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 03:12, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

== [[Louise Brooks]] ==

Very much like Wikipedia, "goog grammar" is a consensus issue, not a scientific absolute, especially when as you did in your edit to this article, you changed the tense of the material.  Clearly you believe your version is superior, and clearly I disagree, so you edit is disputed, and the way we settle that here is not by using the [[Argument from Authority]], but by a consensus discussion on the article talk page.  So, please, do not revert again, I have restored the article to the ''status quo ante'' as required by [[WP:BRD]].  Your Bold edit has been Reverted, and now you get to Discuss on the article talk page, why you believe your version is superior and I am a complete ''dumkopf''.

As noted here and previously, most of the changes you make are merely subjective tweaks, not corrections, improvements or genuine copyedits, and some of them introduce new, outright errors.

These are neither grammatical or even stylistic errors. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 21:15, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
::RE: "As noted here and previously, most of the changes you make are merely subjective tweaks, not corrections, improvements or genuine copyedits, and some of them introduce new, outright errors." Regarding the first point, I did make one typo and omit the closing > on a reference.  Thanks for finding and pointing those out; I've fixed them. However, regarding the second point, I find it very disappointing, even sad, that you and others seem to mistake as stylistic, subjective, and/or valueless changes that actually repair or improve poor grammar or mechanics, and that you use "copyediting" and a patronizing, melodramatically world-weary tone in your post to underscore your disdain for my copyedits. Many copyediting and grammar-mechanics skills are reiterated (and for some students) taught for the first time in the old standardized test prep for English/Reading - e.g., for the ACT/SAT, as [http://www.sparknotes.com/testprep/books/act/chapter3.rhtml this one] and [https://www.bing.com/search?q=gary+gruber+sat+english&pc=MOZI&form=MOZLBR these] - and many of the corrections I've made are to remedy commonly made errors such as those addressed in those programs.  When errors are commonly made, many people (apparently, including you and numerous other Wikipedians) are so used to seeing/hearing them that they don't recognize the familiar usage/constructions as errors, and therefore, the need to correct them. However, that's no justification for Wikipedians who do recognize such errors to allow them to stand. Again, I'll fix the errors I inadvertently made (apologies for those!).

Reed", so it's appropriate to reference the two groups in that order.

:::Sorry, but you have still offered no specific evidence that much of what you change relates to actual stylistic, let alone grammatical, errors. Others have also disagreed with you, and your repeated response is to say "Yes, you see people doing this, but they're all just wrong. Luckily I know better". You'll have to do a bit more than that. Has it occurred to you that people don't think they are errors precisely because they are not? How about asking directly for someone else's opinion or citing a grammar authority that directly agrees with you on the specific points in question, rather than pointing vaguely to the entirety of one? By contrast, while berating everone else for their supposed errors, you happily insist on [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fort_Bridger&type=revision&diff=727903720&oldid=727883916 your right to impose] minority stylings such as "an hotel" (I never said it was wrong, just archaic and less common in 2016, assuming it was deliberate, which it is now clear it was). As for fixing errors, you [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fort_Bridger&oldid=prev&diff=727903935 knee-jerk reverted] one of my repairing edits, before then putting it right yourself. Now that's either incredibly petty or shows you're not thinking about what you're doing properly. This might help explain the weary tone. As for patronising, that goes both ways. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 08:40, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

As I said, it's not an outright error, but it's pretty close to one these days. It's definitely more of an error than the things you often change and mark as corrections. That link is also the kind of specific evidence that it would be good, as noted, if you could provide for some of your assertions, eg about "X entered the competition, winning first prize" being a faulty type of construction which is better rendered as "X entered the competition; they won first prize", which I suspect most readers would in fact find more stilted. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 09:57, 2 July 2016 (UTC)

== Copyediting, again ==

Just to be clear, I have occasionally looked in on your edits since [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nazism&type=revision&diff=723949026&oldid=723615782 this edit], claiming to be a grammar improvement, appeared on a page I keep an eye on. Of course, in fact, it broke the grammar of that sentence. As noted above, this happens quite often. For example, [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Newport_Jazz_Festival&diff=prev&oldid=732106386 this recent edit] has introduced several errors – i) "as well as continued", ii) "From 1984-2008" and iii) "On 1981" – when there were no actual problems that needed solving anyway. [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Newport_Jazz_Festival&type=revision&diff=732110747&oldid=732110348 This edit], on the same page, in its zeal to (needlessly) alphabetise every list, missed the point that the Roots Band were Etta James's backing band, and split them apart, as well as adding a link to an unrelated group. One only has to look as well at the number of bot notifications on your talk page relating to reference, linking etc errors.</br>
Aside from such errors, many other changes are simply neutral or dubious, hence arguably not worth making at all: why, for example, change "consists of" to "comprises"? Why move "in 19XX" to the start of every sentence? Why move every reference to a film being made "in 19XX" to brackets after the name of the film? What is exactly wrong with use of the -ing present participle (which as noted elsewhere, is not the same as a gerund)? None of this is "copyediting" or "grammar/spelling correction". I have tried to point certain things out to you a couple of times now, but you just ignore advice and carry on regardless. I'm not going to spend the rest of my life checking up on things like this, let along sorting them out for you, but a little more care and more openness to people who disagree with you about more subjective grammar matters wouldn't go amiss. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 09:17, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
:OK, and now there's [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Banana_Yoshimoto&type=revision&diff=732235189&oldid=732228615 this one]. I'll drop this now, as I don't want this to be seen as, or felt as, excessive scrutiny, but if an editor is constantly introducing errors into pages (alongside often redundant changes) while purportedly copyediting, that's a problem which other editors are entitled to keep an eye on and flag up. I repeat my last sentence from my previous comment, and will leave it up to others from now on to pick up and deal with the mistakes that keep coming. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 15:15, 30 July 2016 (UTC)
:::You wrote: "I don't want this to be seen as, or felt as, excessive scrutiny".  Too late, according to various sections of [[Wikipedia:Harassment]].  

:::I'll not waste a lot of time here, for various reasons, so I'll make but a few points:
*I've set bots to notify me of whatever errors bots can notify me of so I can correct them. I don't always delete bot notices after I've acted on them, nor is it required that I do so. 
*In some other instances, I review pages I've previously edited, in order to quality control my work. If you or another editor beats me to the punch, so be it. Unfortunately, though, I've seen instances where your "editing" reintroduces errors, "throws the baby out with the bathwater", or flat out reflects you either don't grasp, don't appreciate, or don't give a flying hoot about certain grammar/mechanics/syntax/style/copyediting conventions that warrant certain edits. *Moreover, you've repeatedly expressed disdain for my efforts to logically order items (whether alphabetically, chronologically, or according to other valid schema); that's surprising, since Wikipedia has guidelines calling for that.  Why don't you look those guidelines up?  
**Since, below, you indicated you didn't do so, I've posted the link here, for your convenience and edification: [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lists#Organization]]
*Despite your implication in an earlier post, it's neither necessary or appropriate to expect another editor to define or post a link to a grammar/style/syntax/mechanics rule every time they make an edit of that kind. 
*While I am open to and often comply with constructive feedback, suggestions, and even mentoring, your off-putting tone and approach, from your first post on my Talk Page, reflect the very culture and atmosphere Wikipedia is trying to correct.
*Since you've flat out stated that my edits bear oversight, and it's not inconceivable that you'll enlist other editors to join in, don't forget to also note the thank you's/kudos I've received for my work or the documentation on my Talk Page of amiably resolved debates and collegial work. Also, don't overlook the fact that numerous editors have such a poor grasp of written English and/or of the need to properly organize or cite their work that there might be higher "crimes" worth investing time/energy/snarkiness on than mine.

::I have engaged you politely and reasonably, but you just shrug everything off, or declare yourself to be right about grammar and style issues when you often are not, such as re "an hotel" and re gerunds/participles. You also reverted one of my unambigious corrections to your work, before making exactly the same correction yourself, which, as noted, is incredibly petty. And I have only of course pressed you for explicit justifications on points of dispute, not demanded them for every change you make (in most cases, when asked, you never try, and even when you do, the things you cite do not back up your assertions). As for WP rules, there is no guideline I am aware of that requires alphabetisation, and WP:Harassment explicitly only applies to behaviour that has the "aim of creating irritation, annoyance or distress to the other editor", which, as noted, is not my intent (nor is it my intent to "enlist" anyone else to do anything). It also, pertinently, says: "Correct use of an editor's history includes (but is not limited to) ... correcting related problems on multiple articles". Finally, I am aware of the terrible phrasing and unambiguous style errors that appear on many WP pages, and some of what you do indeed helps improve it. But given the extent of such problems, you can hardly be surprised that someone might be slightly concerned about edits that claim to be about copyediting and correcting errors, but are in fact as often as not making dubious and unnecessary changes to content which is currently perfectly OK. Worse, they often make it less readable or even introduce outright errors into it where there were none before. That, surely, is compounding the problem as much as it is solving it. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 20:19, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
===3 August 2016 reply to N-HH's posts, which have become harassing===
Dear N-HH:
*For the record, as I've already stated above, despite my solid confidence in my grasp of grammar/usage/mechanics/copyediting/style/formatting skills in the "real world" (given my education, training, professional experience, relevant test scores) and within Wikipedia, I'm neither omniscient (especially when it comes to some arcane rules) nor infallible, and I make typos, and I know/acknowledge this.  Therefore: I have set up bot alerts to help me detect and correct my errors, I sometimes (though not always) backtrack to review my past work and make any necessary improvements, and I'm aware other editors might either beat me to the punch or might make improvements or corrections to my work that the bots and I don't catch. I also have benefited from and appreciate some direct communications from other editors that I'll classify as "collegial", "mentoring", or "informative" in a constructive way. I think you perceive your posts to me as falling in those veins. (I wish they did, but many of them don't.)

*Also for the record, it doesn't offend me in any way when other editors beat me to the punch to correct errors I've inadvertently made but have either neither corrected yet nor detected. In fact, I'm sorry about introducing errors (when, in fact, they are errors) and glad when actual errors - whichever Wikipedian makes them - get corrected, whoever corrects them. The whole point of all of Wikipedia editors' efforts in this community should ultimately be to improve Wikipedia, ''n'est ce pas''? 

*It's only comments from other editors who either don't assume good faith, or who don't care about good faith and instead communicate offensively (for whatever reason), that grate.  However, any editor who becomes insulting, irate, a bully, a stalker, or an harasser (yes, I know you object to that construction, but it's grammatically correct and its use is subjective), crosses a line both rationally and according to Wikipedia's rules of civility, and is not serving the greater good/ultimate goal.

*Even in such instance, though, I take pains to bear in mind the greater good (which should supersede individual agendas/motives/ego, etc.) and the reality that time spent editing Wikipedia should be enjoyable, self-improving (e.g., by exposing one to new knowledge and skills), and/or designed to promote the greater good. Otherwise, why bother, since editing Wikipedia is optional, ''pro bono'', and for must of us, accomplished using aliases and therefore doesn't confer any real-life "credentialing" effects. With those caveats in mind, there's never any reason to engage in power struggles or to attack/harass/belittle other editors, nor to suffer such affronts. 

*As I've also stated, you and ''some'' other editors who have objected to some of my edits are not infallible, either, and you have sometimes made edits, reversions, or objections to my contributions which, on your part, have been in various cases (whether purposefully or not) inappropriate, incorrect, subjective, indicative of low standards (e.g., when you disdain edits you deem "minor"), and/or reflective of agendas that don't result in the best outcome for Wikipedia.

*I urge you to see your interactions with me from another point of view. My suggestion, first take a time out. Then, objectively reread all of your posts to/about me, made both on my User Talk Page and before that, on the article(s) that incited your "tracking" of me, and don't overlook your tone/approach from your very first engagements with/about me. Then reconsider your opening statement in the post to which I'm currently responding and fathom why I reiterate: your behavior, tone, and series of posts about/to me reflect you are more than "slightly concerned". I also urge you to then review [[Wikipedia: Harrassment]] and see how it applies to your behavior, which whether intentional or not, has the effects that article warns against.

*That's a pity, since Wikipedia's admonition and the statement posted atop my User Talk Page urge editors to assume good faith. As a corollary, I submit, any edits/contributions/corrections/interactions in the Wikipedia community should be made in good faith, too.  
*Contrary to what you believe, I adhere to those good faith principles and motivations, and I cannot control, nor do I much trouble myself about others' projections on me of the contrary.  That is, until others delve into harassing behavior, as I reiterate you are demonstrating (wittingly or not), your protestations notwithstanding.

===Neither petty nor a knee-jerk reaction===
*In case I didn't address this point earlier, but you've reiterated it in your last post, so it's important to you: my reversion the edit session you cite was neither petty nor a knee-jerk reaction as you claim. Your misreading of the situation indicates misreading and/or projection on your part.  Rather, my actions in that instance reflect my concern that you not "throw the baby out with the bathwater" (as often happens) and instead to revert the valid corrections I agree were warranted, while maintaining other (also valid) edits that I didn't want to have to track down and remake. Stop.  Consider. Do some perspective-taking.

How interesting - and worse, unfortunate - your reaction to that interaction expresses only your concern with being reverted and your indignation (or worse), fueled by your misunderstanding of my motive, than with consideration of what really was at play and (a more appropriate sense of) pleasure or satisfaction that the errors you're referring to were ultimately corrected, and the greater good (improving Wikipedia) served. I realize this may read as snarky, and so I apologize in advance, as that is not my intention.  Rather, it is an observation that bears consideration.

===Links to Wikipedia pages I urge you to read, in response to your comments to me/edits of my work===
*Excerpt from my earlier post: "Moreover, you've repeatedly expressed disdain for my efforts to logically order items (whether alphabetically, chronologically, or according to other valid schema); that's surprising, since Wikipedia has guidelines calling for that.  Why don't you look those guidelines up?" 
**Your reply to that: "As for WP rules, there is no guideline I am aware of that requires alphabetisation"
***Surprising. For your convenience and edification, see: [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lists#Organization]] (that entire article is worth reading).  Also regarding ordering, see, for examle: [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Layout#Works_or_publications]].

*Your following statements are inaccurate: 
<blockquote>"And I have only of course pressed you for explicit justifications on points of dispute, not demanded them for every change you make (in most cases, when asked, you never try, and even when you do, the things you cite do not back up your assertions)."</blockquote>
and
<blockquote> "as often as not making dubious and unnecessary changes to content which is currently perfectly OK. Worse, they often make it less readable or even introduce outright errors into it where there were none before."</blockquote>
But who has time or patience to engage in [[wikilawyering]]? Correction: '''''I''''' have neither time nor patience for it. I will, however, share some articles that explain some principles I follow when editing (that you seem unaware of or disdain), e.g.:
**[[Avoiding_common_mistakes]] and its "See also" section
**[[Wikipedia:Basic_copyediting]]
**[[User:Tony1/Beginners'_guide_to_the_Manual_of_Style]]
**[[Wikipedia:Writing_better_articles]]

*Excerpt from my earlier post: "Moreover, you've repeatedly expressed disdain for my efforts to logically order items (whether alphabetically, chronologically, or according to other valid schema); that's surprising, since Wikipedia has guidelines calling for that.  Why don't you look those guidelines up?" 
**Your reply to that: "As for WP rules, there is no guideline I am aware of that requires alphabetisation"
***Surprising. For your convenience and edification, see: [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Lists#Organization]] (that entire article is worth reading).  Also regarding ordering, see, for examle: [[Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Layout#Works_or_publications]].
===Bigger picture, forward-looking thoughts===
*All that said, here's what I wholeheartedly believe: Wikipedia should require every editor, no exception (in other words, including us) to take, to periodically retake, and to demonstrate mastery of Wikipedia-sponsored, graded seminars designed to ensure all Wikipedians have a common mastery and understanding of important Wikipedia-sanctioned rules of grammar/mechanics/usage/style/formatting, AND of rules of conduct, of engagement, and of conflict resolution within the Wikipedia community.   

*Additionally, Wikipedia sorely needs to fix the valid concerns - many of which are in play in our current dialogue and interactions - e.g., those detailed in: [[Criticism_of_Wikipedia#Editorial_process]] (see all section, including [[Criticism_of_Wikipedia#Consensus_and_the_.22hive_mind.22]]) and  [[Academic_studies_about_Wikipedia#Power_plays]].
===Last words (I hope)===
I welcome constructive, [[collegial]]ly-toned interactions from editors (including you) who share the above-mentioned "greater goal", and whose communications are enlightening, informative, or otherwise positive/constructive, and which are non-[[Wikipedia: Harassing|harassing]]. Point of fact: You've made/documented numerous points and have, in multiple instances, repeated yourself. Point of fact: I've read them and replied. Point of fact: Neither of us will benefit, and I don't welcome, further posts from you that beat that dead horse and would constitute (further) [[Wikipedia:Harassment]] (despite your contention that your posts are not harassing). 

More points of fact: You edit and care about the quality of Wikipedia. So do I. Neither of us wants to either be or to be viewed as a troll, stalker, harasser, or other type of Wikipedian who causes harm or destruction, despite the fact that we ''both'' sometimes make ''some'' inadvertent errors that need to be corrected, either by us or - as we hope to avoid - by others. (See [[User:Froid]].) Obviously, we share ''some'' common ground. 

Let's move on from there. [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 12:05, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
:::As seen, for example in the [[Janis Joplin]] article and others I've edited in the past few days, NHH is still "stalking" me, racing to find and correct any errors I might make before I can correct them myself, and - and here's the issue worth noting - in the process is making snide comments in the edit summaries, which constitute [[Wikipedia:Harrassment]].  NHH needs a time out, and perhaps, an intervention. A review of his/her User Talk pages indicates multiple others have complained and admonished NHH about incivility and other similar behavior with others, and it might be necessary for an administrator to monitor NHH's behavior. [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 15:38, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

As noted, I don't want to get bogged down in long, back-and-forth discussions about all this, nor is it my intention to harrass any user. The problem is with the quality of some of your edits and your apparent confusion about certain principles of grammar, despite your assertions that what you are doing is "copyediting" or "grammar correction", as well as your persistent refusal, in the face of observations by several other editors, to accept that you might be at all in error (which, as noted, is the cause of my slight exasperation with this situation). Sometimes you declare a rule, and one form of phrasing therefore wrong, when in fact both are acceptable; other times you declare a rule that supposedly favours what is in fact an incorrect form. There is of course also the slightly separate point about the regular introduction of obvious errors into what was previously clean text due to lack of self-proofing. I'll bullet-point the main recurring issues, some of which have been discussed elsewhere, and privide some links for you.
*'''Alphabetisation''': you linked above to the MOS guidance. But this is clearly about lists, not running prose, and also allows for other logic to come into play re ordering. Alphabetisation is neither obligatory nor often the best way to order material. For disambiguation pages specifically, please see [[WP:DABORDER]], which explicitly says the "most common meanings may be placed at the top". Others have raised this exact point with you on this talk page.
*'''Possessive form''': I see you are now in dispute with another editor ([[User:DrKay]]) about s' vs s's. The fact is that both are acceptable in the real world, and indeed in the [[MOS:POSS|MOS]] here. What matters is consistency in an article.
*'''Double possessive''': You seem to think this is compulsory (and not using it an error). It is not. Equally, no, it is not always wrong – indeed sometimes it is necessary for clarity – but it is often deprecated in formal writing and often unnecessary. I explained this to you [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3APoint_Lookout_State_Park&type=revision&diff=731815746&oldid=731809579 here]. [http://www.dailywritingtips.com/double-possessive/ Here] is a discussion of the topic.
*'''Participles''': you seem to have an aversion to the use of the -ing form of the present participle, including in adverbial and adjectival phrases, possibly because you confuse it with use as a gerund/noun; hence why you also have argued that "X led to Y doing Z" requires an apostrope and that "X did Y, doing it better than Z" is ungrammatical. Neither is the case. [http://www.chompchomp.com/terms/participlephrase.htm Here's] a link on this.
*'''As well as''': this again relates (in part) to participles. Yes, it can sometimes substitute for "and", but it does not do so universally, or require exactly the same grammar around it. "X does Y as well as doing Z" is the standard, idiomatic form; "X does Y as well as does Z" is incorrect. "W does X, Y and Z" cannot be replaced by "W does X, Y as well as Z"; only by "W does X and Y, as well as Z". On the first point, please see [http://site.uit.no/english/grammar/aswellas/ this] and [http://www.perfectyourenglish.com/usage/as-well-as.htm this].
*'''A/an''': with words that start with "h", such as "hotel" or "historic", "a" rather than "an" is usually preferred these days. I already pointed this out to you a while back, but I see you are still switching to "an". [http://www.oxforddictionaries.com/words/a-historic-event-or-an-historic-event Here] is the link again. And FWIW, your claim that you had to revert my correction of a separate typo of yours on that page, as I had thrown "the baby out with the bathwater" and lost other, legitimate changes, is simply untrue. As I said, I made that correction [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fort_Bridger&diff=prev&oldid=727883916 on its own]. You then [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fort_Bridger&diff=next&oldid=727903720 reverted] it, again on its own.
*'''Years''': As also previously noted, as far as I am aware, there is no rule of grammar or style that requires the universal changing of "X did Y in 1983" to "In 1983, X did Y" (indeed it leads to rather repetitive structure; and sometimes the emphasis needs to be different). Nor am I aware of any WP style guidance that requires "the 1983 film X", or "the film X was released in 1983" to always be changed to "the film X (1983)".
*As a final, one-off point, re adding '''Elizabeth Warren''' to the Indian disambiguation page. I will revert this addition again. This is a disambiguation page, to direct readers to different pages which uses the term in question, not to list every context in which it might be used. Warren's page does not open by saying she is "also known as the Indian"; nor is there page "Indian (Trump insult)". Absent either of this, it should not be there. [[Idiot_(disambiguation)|This page]] does not, and should not, list every person who has been described as such by someone else.
If you wish to complain about me harrassing you, feel free. I am more than happy to have each of our actions put under scrutiny. Equally, if you want further discussion about any of the above points, please post a note at [[WT:MOS]] and get a third opinion. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 11:03, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
====reaction to N-HH's post of 11:03 7 August 2016 (UTC) ====
N-HH's communications and behavior constitute [[Wikipedia:Harrassment]]. Both common sense and Wikipedia's advisement for handling such behavior advise against engaging perpetrators of same, so I will not reply to his/her last post. Nonetheless, this is MY talk page, and I am posting the following:

* N-HH has made multiple inaccurate claims and protestations, including the most recent (shared below), which his/her behavior - e.g., as documented by his/her posts on this User Talk page and on his/her stalking of me online and commentary in his/her edit summaries - are either disingenuous or reflect deep denial: 
<blockquote>"I don't want to get bogged down in long, back-and-forth discussions about all this, nor is it my intention to harrass any user."</blockquote>
* As this page reflects:
** N-HH keeps repeating him/herself and pushing his/her "case" on this page and has ignored my requests to stop doing so, which compounds behavior that already constitutes [[Wikipedia:Harrassment]]
** N-HH seems hell-bent on engaging in additional behaviors that constitute [[Wikipedia:Harrassment]] (e.g., following MY edits specifically and handling them in the manners I've described in my previous posts), e.g., stalking/hounding/[[Wikipedia:Harrassment]]/[[wikilawyering]]
** N-HH his obviously ignored my suggestion (posted in a previous post) to reframe the situation and move forward in a more positive, productive manner
** N-HH's communications on this user's talk page, in edit summaries when "editing" or reverting my work, and on multiple articles' talk pages is frequently uncivil, condescending, denigrating, insulting, and (as previously noted) repetitive, and constitutes [[Wikipedia:Harrassment]] 

* N-HH lacks the level of mastery of grammar/usage/mechanics/copyediting/Wikipedia guidelines/styles/rules s/he thinks s/he possesses (e.g., see N-HH's comments above which reflect unawareness of conciseness, parallelism, etc.), frequently demonstrates that s/he embraces (and tries to impose on others) the use of commonly made errors, and tries to impose on others the use of his/her subjective preferences when there's more than one approach.
* Because of N-HH's less-than-complete mastery, s/he has on multiple occasions reverted valid edits/contributions as well as overlooked/denigrated the legitimacy/value of valid changes/contributions
*N-HH seems unaware or unconcerned that his/her manner of communicating and his/her behaviors are not only inappropriate and violate Wikipedia's guidelines, but that s/he comes across as laughable in those instances when her "corrections" or reversions are incorrect yet accompanied by haughty/derisive commentary that is inaccurate or reflects ignorance
* N-HH is highly negative and selective, honing in on data that support his/her worldview and agenda, e.g., 
**N-HH looks for the existence of or relative proportion of errors, completing ignoring the existence of or relative proportion of valid edits/contributions
**N-HH focuses exclusively on rules/guidelines/options/incidents that support his/her point of view even when aware of other applicable rules/guidelines/options/incidents that don't 
** N-HH doesn't seem to distinguish between disagreements between editors (reflected in edit summaries or on talk pages) that are part of the normal/useful give-and-take associated with editing this community enterprise and frequently occur between editors, versus those (like N-HH's) that are dysfunctional/inappropriate.  Nor does N-HH seem interested in how any other disagreements are handled/resolved other than those which might support his/her negative agenda. 
**N-HH completely ignores positive posts on this user's talk page that belie his/her negative filter about this editor, such as thank you's, tortes, requests for assistance, invitations to participate in editing other pages/projects, and the like
* Posts on N-HH's user talk page, on this talk page, and on other Wikipedia pages (e.g., where administrative actions are being discussed) document that:
** N-HH has exhibited and been called out for/reviewed/admonished by other Wikipedia editors, admins, or admin bodies for multiple instances of similar behavior on other occasions, with other Wikipedians. So N-HH's pattern of behavior and communication style, in question here, are neither unique nor new.
** The above-mentioned remedy-seeking actions seem to have had very little, if any, reformatory impact on N-HH's behavior or communication style, which I reiterate in my case, constitutes [[Wikipedia:Harrassment]]
** N-HH frequently expresses an undue (and unwarranted) sense of superiority, an inflated sense of his/her competence, outright derision for the competence of others who disagree with him/her (whether such others are correct or not), an inappropriate and dysfunctional need for power/control, and propensities for obsessive-compulsive/punitive/stalking/hounding/[[wikilawyering]]/[[Wikipedia:Harrassment|harrassment]]

:And you haven't addressed a single one of the substantive issues raised above, but are just throwing around insults now. I note previously you accuse me of repeating myself – but that is of course because you don't respond to points and don't modify your beliefs when the evidence is presented to you. I wouldn't have to keep coming back to this if you did, and yet it is all my fault? Please. Indeed, you are still reverting me [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=NBTY&type=revision&diff=733384523&oldid=733376218 here], despite the evidence I presented above about the idiomatic verb form usually found with "as well as". As for my "sense of superiority" and "inflated sense .. of competence", I have provided direct and focused third-party evidence for every single one of my assertions relating to your edits and points of dispute, and, on top of that, suggested you seek the views of other WP editors at the MOS page in respect of them. Yes, that is because I am confident I am right, but at the same time, I am not asking you to just take my word for it. By contrast, you simply assert you know best about various grammar "rules", and accuse everyone else of lack of competence and making errors, without providing any similar evidence about what they might have got wrong, and without anyone else backing you up. Indeed, as noted, plenty of other WP editors have already disagreed with you about the same things I disagree with you about. As it happens, if actual evidence was presented to me that I might be wrong about something, and other editors were patiently trying to explain why, I would at least stop to think for a second, and either respond to their criticism/evidence in a bid to rebut it or accept I might have been wrong. I'm not a fan of going to ANI or other project pages to moan about other editors, preferring to try reason first, but please don't let me stop you if you think my attempts at reasoning with you (and other editors in the past) – in the face of your (and their) obtuseness – constitute harrassment. I will not respond further here, whether you choose to make more constructive points or to continue ranting, which I am sure you will be pleased to hear. <small>'''[[User:N-HH|<font color="navy">N-HH</font>]]''' '''[[User talk:N-HH|<font color="blue">talk</font>]]/[[Special:Contributions/N-HH|<font color="blue">edits</font>]]'''</small> 17:13, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
=====Further evidence....=====
Looking in the notices on my user talk page at the last three actions N-HH made today, before I made this post, and for example, at the following excerpt from N-HH's most recent statement on this talk page...
<blockquote>"And you haven't addressed a single one of the substantive issues raised above, but are just throwing around insults now. I note previously you accuse me of repeating myself – but that is of course because you don't respond to points and don't modify your beliefs when the evidence is presented to you. I wouldn't have to keep coming back to this if you did, and yet it is all my fault?</blockquote>
...further evidences what appears to be, on N-HH's part, deep-seated:
*Need to be acknowledged
*Insistence on being "right" ''and'' on having ''that'' acknowledged
*Control/power issues 
*Persistent [[Wikipedia:Ownership of content]], at least when it comes to my edits/posts
*Propensity to engage in [[Wikipedia:Don%27t_bludgeon_the_process|bludgeoning]] and the types of disruptive editing described in [[Wikipedia:Harassment#Consequences_of_harassment]]
*[[Wikipedia:WikiHate]]
*Overbearing sense of ownership and authority 
*Obsessive-compulsive/stalking/hounding/[[wikilawyering]]/[[Wikipedia:Harrassment]] propensities
*Denigration of others who disagree with him/her, even when such others have been supported, in the past, by other editors and admin reviews of N-HH's misbehavior - e.g., "I'm not a fan of going to ANI or other project pages to moan about other editors, preferring to try reason first, but please don't let me stop you if you think my attempts at reasoning with you (and other editors in the past) – in the face of your (and their) obtuseness – constitute harrassment." 
*Lack of regard for civility
*Need to have the last word, though I hope s/he honors this insultingly-worded proclamation: "I will not respond further here, whether you choose to make more constructive points or to continue ranting"
*However, even if s/he does cease and desist on ''this page'', his continued stalking/hounding/[[Wikipedia:Harrassment]] of me on other pages bears addressing, so I've sought assistance from Wikipedia's admins

==WikiProject Wildfire==
[[File:WikiProjectWildfireLogo.png|left|80px|alt=Information icon|link=WP:Wildfire]] Hello! I have recently started a new [[WP:WikiProject|WikiProject]] and am trying to recruit new members. The project, [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Wildfire|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 [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Wildfire|join the discussion]] or leave me a message on my talk page.

Hello and welcome to the [[WP:MILHIST|Military history WikiProject]]!  As you may have guessed, we're a group of editors working to improve Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to military history.

A few features that you might find helpful:

* Our [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Navigation|navigation box]] points to most of the useful pages within the project.
* The [[Template:WPMILHIST Announcements|announcement and open task box]] is updated very frequently.  You can [{{fullurl:Template:WPMILHIST Announcements|action=watch}} watchlist it] if you are interested, or you can add it directly to your user page by copying the following: {{tl|WPMILHIST Announcements}}.
* Important discussions take place on the project's [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Military history|main discussion page]]; it is highly recommended that you [{{SERVER}}{{localurl:Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history|action=watch}} watchlist it].
* The project has several [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history#Structure|departments]], which handle [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment|article quality assessment]], [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Review|detailed article and content review]], [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Contest|writing contests]], and [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Logistics|article logistics]].
* We have a number of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Task forces|task forces]] that focus on specific topics, nations, periods, and conflicts.
* We've developed a set of  [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history#Guidelines|guidelines]] that cover article structure and content, template use, categorization, and many other issues of interest.
* If you're looking for something to work on, there are many [[:Category:Military history articles needing attention|articles that need attention]], as well as a number of [[Template:WPMILHIST Review alerts|review alerts]].

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask any of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators|project coordinators]] or any other experienced member of the project, and we'll be happy to help you.  Again, welcome, and we are looking forward to seeing you around! [[User:Anotherclown|Anotherclown]] ([[User talk:Anotherclown|talk]]) 23:31, 6 August 2016 (UTC)

== The Last Question at Hayden Planetarium ==

On 9 August 2015 you edited [[The Last Question]] from "It played at the Hayden Planetarium in the [[Museum of Science, Boston|Boston Museum of Science]] and..." to:

It subsequently played, as well, at the:
* [[Hayden Planetarium]] in New York City
* [[Museum of Science, Boston|Boston Museum of Science]] in Massachusetts
* etc.

I agree with you that it's easier to read the list of planetariums in list form rather than all in one paragraph. However, did you have any information that TLQ played at the Hayden Planetarium in New York City, as opposed to the Charles Hayden Planetarium at the [[Museum of Science, Boston|Boston Museum of Science]]? There are actually two planetariums called Hayden, in New York and Boston, and I haven't been able to find which one TLQ played at.

Join us for a full Saturday of social Wikipedia editing at the [[Museum of Modern Art]] (drop-in any time!), during which we will create, update, and improve Wikipedia articles pertaining to the lives and works of Latin American artists.

The ''WikiArte'' (Wiki Arte y Cultura Latinoamerica) edit-a-thon is a global campaign to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Latin American arts and culture and to counter geocultural systemic bias on Wikipedia. 

Featuring an opening Artists' Panel at 10am, with Sol Aramendi, Sharon Lee De La Cruz, and Marisa Morán Jahn, to be moderated by Rocío Aranda-Alvarado, curator at El Museo del Barrio.

The Museum of Modern Art and Fundacion Cisneros/Colección Patricia Phelps de Cisneros are uniting with international allies to focus on the lives and works of Latin American artists, architects and designers.  With keystone events scheduled for October 22 in New York City and other cities throughout the month (Mexico City, Buenos Aires, Caracas, & others), the campaign aims to further similar goals to [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]].

All are invited, with no specialized knowledge of the subject or Wikipedia editing experience required. Introductory training on the basics of Wikipedia editing will be given throughout the edit-a-thon. Please bring your laptop and power cord; we will have library resources, WiFi, and a list of suggested topics on hand.

== New York City government and public libraries ==

I have challenged the material you've added in your [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Government_of_New_York_City&diff=710994458&oldid=707060378 edit] from March, and I intend on reverting it as it pertains to the public libraries in New York City. While they may have "public" in their name, they are private entities. A good example of this would be a [[charter school]]: it has a government charter, it receives government funding, it provides services to the public, but alas it is still private.

On '''Saturday December 3, 2016''', in conjunction with a global campaign, the Guggenheim will host its fifth Wikipedia edit-a-thon—or, <big>'''#guggathon'''</big>—to enhance Wikipedia's coverage of modern and contemporary artists from Greater China. The event will cap off [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia Asian Month|Wikipedia Asian Month]], an online campaign dedicated to augmenting Asian content on Wikipedia throughout November. 

New and experienced editors are welcome. The event will include a training session for participants who are new to Wikipedia, and Wikipedia specialists will be on hand to provide basic instruction and editing support. Editors are invited to view the exhibition <big>[https://www.guggenheim.org/exhibition/tales-of-our-time Tales of Our Time]</big> following the event. 

The Guggenheim aims to raise awareness of the artists featured in the Tales of Our Time exhibition supported by The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Chinese Art Initiative, and build on the model of campaigns like the Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at the Guggenheim: Women in Architecture, Wikipedia Edit-a-thon at the Guggenheim: Contemporary Art of the Middle East and North Africa, and Art+Feminism. 

*Saturday December 3: '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Contemporary Chinese Art|Contemporary Chinese Art Edit-a-thon @ Guggenheim]]''' 
:*'''Time:''' 11:00 am - 3:00 pm
:* '''Location:''' [[Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum]]. 1071 Fifth Ave, Manhattan.

[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, I'm [[User:BeenAroundAWhile|BeenAroundAWhile]]. I noticed that you made a change to an article, [[:Santa Clarita, California]], but you didn't provide a [[Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources|reliable source]]. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|include a citation]] and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the [[Help:Referencing for beginners|referencing for beginners]] tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on [[User_talk:BeenAroundAWhile|my talk page]]. ''We need sources for everybody in this section; there is no sense in adding just one more unsourced person.'' <!-- Template:uw-unsourced1 --> [[User:BeenAroundAWhile|BeenAroundAWhile]] ([[User talk:BeenAroundAWhile|talk]]) 22:11, 18 February 2017 (UTC)

It seems you broke the HTML code with your edit, causing a line break where there shouldnt be one.  Please try again, and hoefully this time it will look better.
:I agree with needed change and already fixed it, before reading this. I respectfully add: 
#Please sign your posts, in the future; 
#Please link to the article in Q or indicate its title, in the future (I'm assuming you are referring to Blood Diamond but shouldn't have to assume); 
#Note: Not trying to be argumentative here, but stating objective facts - it would have been more collaborative and efficient, and less wasteful if you had merely removed the inadvertently added carriage return/line break rather than throwing the baby out with the bathwater with your reversion and then leaving this message.

== March Madness 2017 ==
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/March Madness 2017|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 [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/March Madness 2017|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, [[User:AustralianRupert|AustralianRupert]] ([[User talk:AustralianRupert|talk]]) & [[User:MediaWiki message delivery|MediaWiki message delivery]] ([[User talk:MediaWiki message delivery|talk]]) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

==[[The King and I]]==
Hello.  ''[[The King and I]]'' is a [[WP:Featured Article]].  It has been reviewed by numerous people who, in many cases, compromised on issues that you are commenting on.  In particular, the citation style should not be changed.  See [[WP:CITEVAR]].  I disagreed with many of your other proposed changes in the creation section, including your changes in the paragraphing.  Some of your proposed changes may be helpful, but please consider the previous talk page discussions and the FAC for the article before making merely stylistic changes.  Feel free to discuss your proposed changes on the article's Talk page.  All the best!  -- [[User:Ssilvers|Ssilvers]] ([[User talk:Ssilvers|talk]]) 20:25, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Join us at the Dorothy and Lewis B. Cullman Education and Research Building at the [[Museum of Modern Art]], 4 West 54th Street, on Saturday, March 11, 2017 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. for an all-day communal updating of Wikipedia entries on subjects related to art and feminism. There will be childcare, snacks, multiple trainings and panel discussions. People of all gender identities and expressions welcomed and encouraged to attend.

This year’s edit-a-thon kicks off at 10:00 a.m. with a conversation about information activism with writer Joanne McNeil and Data & Society Research Institute Fellow Zara Rahman, moderated by Kimberly Drew, the social media manager for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, creator of the Tumblr “Black Contemporary Art,” and the person behind @museummammy on Instagram. Afternoon breakout groups will engage in focused discussions about related issues, including intersectionality and librarianship, power structures in notability guidelines on Wikipedia, and radical archives. --[[User:Pharos|Pharos]] ([[User talk:Pharos|talk]]) 18:46, 7 March 2017 (UTC)

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at [https://www.acehotel.com/newyork Ace Hotel New York] hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, and following on the recent [[Wikipedia:Meetup/ArtAndFeminism|Art+Feminism]] campaign, we'll focus on building better [[edit-a-thon]] tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community.  Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

On the last Sunday of every month, the Boardroom at [https://www.acehotel.com/newyork Ace Hotel New York] hosts Action Equals History — a unique opportunity for New Yorkers to learn hands-on in a technology training/workshop session about the mechanics, practices and benefits of Wikipedia and the Wikimedia projects. This is an opportunity for all to gather, share and work collectively towards a more robust account of history.

For this month, we'll focus on Wikipedia casual editing, ways to use and develop [[Wikidata]], building better [[edit-a-thon]] tools for a variety of different thematic campaigns, and user-testing them with the community.  Towards a goal of advancing these tools for wider use with diverse local groups.

== "In popular culture" updates ==

Hi, I noticed you've updated several articles about the Mexican Drug War and updating them with information about the TV series on El Chapo. Would you mind adding reliable sources to your updates?

The '''Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met''' will be the [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]]'s second edit-a-thon, hosted on '''Sunday November 19, 2017''' in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

Following the first Met edit-a-thon in May 2017, the museum is excited to work with [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2017/Asian Art|Wikipedia Asian Month]] for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of [[Asia]]. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely.

== Damage to Windows 7 article ==

Hello. {{p|:)}}

It has come to my attention that unfortunately, you damaged Windows 7 article. Normally, it's okay; damage happens during bona fide editing. But... you were doing something that you weren't supposed to do in the first place.
* Starting 2014 {{tl|Cite web}} and {{tl|Cite news}} no longer have any semantic difference whatsoever. {{tlf|Cite news}} has some extra parameters, but other than that, changing one to another is a total waste of time and resource.
* {{Para|work}} and {{para|website}} are equivalent. There is absolutely no difference between them.
<del>I am not overly concerned with what you do with your own time</del> (waste it or use it well), but the damage was concerning.

Best regards,<br/>[[User:Codename Lisa|Codename Lisa]] ([[User talk:Codename Lisa|talk]]) 06:09, 28 February 2018 (UTC)
:Not sure what you meant by "damaged"; please explain (minus the officiousness, insults, and passive-aggressive misuse of the Kiss-Kick-Kiss structure), and I'll fix actual damage (if any). FYI, pairing "cite web" with "website" always italicizes the website name, pairing "cite news" with "work", or "newspaper", or "magazine" always italicizes the news outlet's name; but other pairings do not consistently italicize the second term's name, and, consequently, news outlets whose names should be italicized (e.g., ''The New York Times'') often aren't, therefore resulting in ''bona fide''  formatting errors. Additionally, it bears pointing out, "publisher" is not synonymous with a website or news outlet, and including a publisher's name in a citation does mean either a website's name (in "cite web" instances) or news outlet's name (in "cite news" instances) should not also be included. Therefore, what I did is actually "''bona fide'' editing", and is neither "something [I] wasn't supposed to do in the first place", nor a "total waste of time of time and resource"[s].[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 08:54, 28 February 2018 (UTC)
::Everything you wrote under "FYI" prefix is pre-2014 and outdated. Now, both {{tlf|Cite web}} and {{tlf|Cite news}} accept {{para|work}} (a.k.a. {{para|website}} and {{para|newspaper}}) in equal capacity. Since 2014, CS1 requires all works, regardless of medium, to be italicized. It means you can give {{para|website}} to {{tlf|Cite news}} and cite a paper magazine with it! The syntax would be funny to a human, but indifferent for a machine. Here is the proof:
::* {{Cite web |last=Smith |first=John |title=A page |work=Example.com |publisher=ACME |date=1 January 2019 |url=http://www.example.com/a_page}} (with {{tlf|Cite web}}, {{para|work}})
::* {{Cite web |last=Smith |first=John |title=A page |website=Example.com |publisher=ACME |date=1 January 2019 |url=http://www.example.com/a_page}} (with {{tlf|Cite web}}, {{para|website}})
::* {{Cite web |last=Smith |first=John |title=A page |newspaper=Example.com |publisher=ACME |date=1 January 2019 |url=http://www.example.com/a_page}} (with {{tlf|Cite web}}, {{para|newspaper}})
::* {{Cite news |last=Smith |first=John |title=A page |work=Example.com |publisher=ACME |date=1 January 2019 |url=http://www.example.com/a_page}} (with {{tlf|Cite news}}, {{para|work}})
::* {{Cite news |last=Smith |first=John |title=A page |website=Example.com |publisher=ACME |date=1 January 2019 |url=http://www.example.com/a_page}} (with {{tlf|Cite news}}, {{para|website}})
::* {{Cite news |last=Smith |first=John |title=A page |newspaper=Example.com |publisher=ACME |date=1 January 2019 |url=http://www.example.com/a_page}} (with {{tlf|Cite news}}, {{para|newspaper}})

::Everytghing you wrote after "Additionally" is correct! I am glad you know them. And yet, please look at [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Windows_7&diff=prev&oldid=828016840 revision 828016840]:
::*You have changed "<code><nowiki>|publisher=BetaNews, Inc. |work=BetaNews</nowiki></code>" into "<code><nowiki>|website=BetaNews, Inc.</nowiki></code>", which is contrary to what you wrote. (It was correct before your edit but "<code><nowiki>|work=BetaNews</nowiki></code>" is also okay.)
::*Next, you changed "<code><nowiki>|publisher=Microsoft</nowiki></code>" into "<code><nowiki>|website=Microsoft</nowiki></code>", which is more wrong. The perfect version is: "<code><nowiki>|work=News Center |publisher=Microsoft</nowiki></code>". (Or "<code><nowiki>|website=News Center |publisher=Microsoft</nowiki></code>". As I said before, no difference.)
::*In the subsequent line, there are a lot of instances in which you changed "cite web" into "cite news". This is neither good nor bad. It has zero impact. <del>Hence, the waste of the time (which is totally yours)</del> but you ended up changing "<code><nowiki><ref name=thurrottfaq>{{cite web </nowiki></code>" into "<code><nowiki><ref name=thurrottfaq>{{cite webnews </nowiki></code>". This one is not okay. So, when you go chaning "Cite web" into "Cite news", if do it well, you didn't do anything positive and if you don't do it well, you have done damage.
::Best regards,<br/>[[User:Codename Lisa|Codename Lisa]] ([[User talk:Codename Lisa|talk]]) 13:50, 28 February 2018 (UTC)
:::Update: I said it is your business whether you waste time doing inconsequential edits like changing {{para|work}} to {{para|website}}. I was wrong. ArbCom blocks people who do stuff like this. Read about it in [[MOS:STABILITY]]'s fineprint. —[[User:Codename Lisa|Codename Lisa]] ([[User talk:Codename Lisa|talk]]) 13:55, 28 February 2018 (UTC)

== April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive ==

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history|Military history Wikiproject]] is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

* tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
* adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
* updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
* creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various 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 scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red]], and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive|here]].

== Style issues on [[Patch]] ==

I know from my own Watchlist that you frequently edit disambiguation pages and I genuinely thank you for that work. ''Because'' you do so many of those edits though, I thought it would be worth the effort to point out several things in your recent edit on [[Patch]] that go against [[MOS:DAB]], mostly to prevent more effort from other editors in the future. Please take this as the constructive criticism that I mean it to be, as again I do appreciate you trying to spruce up these articles.
* When piping, "the text of the link should still be very similar to the title of the target article, to avoid confusing the reader". So, changing <nowiki>[[List of The Tribe characters#Patch|character from ''The Tribe'']] to [[List of The Tribe characters#Patch|Patch]]</nowiki> is a move in the wrong direction. The "Ten" example at [[MOS:DABPIPING]] fits this case pretty well.
* Please don't change proper sections to [[MOS:PSEUDOHEAD|pseudo-headings]]
* A twofer on "[[Knee-patch breeches]], a form of riding breeches" which is both a [[MOS:DABRED|red link with no blue link]] and a [[WP:PTM|partial title match]]
* We do not need to cover every dictionary definition of a term. I removed the tire patching entry because it seemed like it was just added in order to try to cover the use of "patch" as a verb. That one's up for interpretation though.[[User:Fyrael|&#32;-- Fyrael]] ([[User talk:Fyrael|talk]]) 16:49, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

== Wikiproject Military history coordinator election nominations open ==

Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes. They do not, however, have any authority over article content or editor conduct, or any other special powers. More information on being a coordinator is available [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Academy/Becoming a coordinator|here]]. If you are interested in running, please sign up [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators/September 2018|here]] by 23:59 UTC on 14 September! Voting doesn't commence until 15 September. If you have any questions, you can contact any member of the [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Coordinators|coord team]].

== Your dab fixes ==

On dabs like [[Mac]], I've seen you make good corrections to things like alphabetization, but I've also seen you make a lot of changes that don't comport with [[WP:MOSDAB]], and that make the page less helpful. To take this page as an example:
* There is ''not'' a consensus to move "Places" and "People" out of alpha order to the top of the page, barring a special local reason. This was [[Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style/Disambiguation_pages#People_and_Places_at_the_top?|recently re-confirmed]].
* There ''is'' an allowance ([[MOS:DABCOMMON]]) for listing especially common meanings at the top of a dab page; these should not be removed without a good, expressed reason.
* Descriptions are supposed to be no longer than needed to disambiguate the entry ([[MOS:DABENTRY]]). If a description does this, don't make it longer.
* If a subsection logically fits in more than one section, ''[[Wikipedia:Organizing disambiguation pages by subject area#Create sharply defined sections|leave a hatnote in the OTHER section]]'' where it would fit. That means if you move the subsection, you need to move the hatnote as well.

Basically, I think you need to review [[WP:MOSDAB]], and remember that deviating from the guide should only be done with a good reason, which should appear in your edit summary. If you're going to do ''multiple'' things that the guideline recommends against, please do them in separate edits, and explain your reason for each one. If you think the guideline is wrong about something, the answer is not to ignore it (not saying you are), but to challenge it on the guideline's talk page. —[[User:Swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[User talk:Swpb|''T'']] [[Wikipedia:Beyond civility|go beyond]]</sup> 15:16, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

== Trellick Tower notes ==

What do you mean "too random as it is"? The original GA reviewer, {{u|Eric Corbett}} is one of the best reviewers on the project, no matter what you think of his occasionally brusque attitude. "Cultural references" sections are a trivia magnet for people adding unsourced or poorly sourced content, and not really what people are looking for beyond a short and concise "oh, it was in that".

:"Occasionally brusque"? Occasionally impatient perhaps. You're quite right though, I would never have allowed an article with a stubby Cultural references section to become a GA, and if Trellick Tower develops one I would have no hesitation in removing its GA status. Which I'm perfectly entitled to do.

::Hello, Ritchie333, 
I don't know anything about Eric Corbett's manner, his editing/reviewing track record, or the standard by which you have assessed the quality of his reviewing. Nor would such knowledge have affected my edit; I made it from a purely objective point of view and stand by it.  As I already stated, my edits resolved the random organization of content that was presented in no particular order (e.g., not chronologically nor by media type).  My edit neither added to nor subtracted from the content or references that were already posted. If you dislike the use of headers, that's one thing.  But the material was not well organized.§

While "Cultural references" sections may well be trivia magnets for editors, there is no reason to not present such content in that, or any other section of a Wikipedia page, in an organized fashion commensurate with standards adhered to by professional encyclopedias. Cheers.[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 12:09, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

== Edit summaries 2 ==

Thank you for your edits to dab pages. I just wanted to ask if you could possibly use edit summaries that relate to the edits in question: most of these edits consist in the rearrangement or reordering of entries, and that really has nothing to do with either categories or with style errors as your edit summaries suggest.  – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 15:27, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
: Hello, Uanfala - I see rearrangement and reordering of entries and/or categories as layout changes, the changing of category titles or recategorization of items as category changes, and the addition of a toc right or different use of bullets or hierarchies as style changes. What would you prefer to call those types of changes? [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 15:40, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
:::Ah, now I see where you're coming from. But these edit summaries are still misleading. Let's take an edit like [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Indian&diff=prev&oldid=867239096 this one] with the summary "Adding/removing category/ies Fixing style/layout errors". To me, and probably to most other people, the word "category" here would refer to wikipedia's categories (in the sense of [[WP:CAT]]), and "fixing style errors" would suggest an entirely technical change, like fixing broken html, adjusting the spacing around commas, and stuff like that. Rearranging the order of entries on a dab page can make it better usable, but there are no errors per se that it fixes. I think the most straightforward summaries are the best: something like "rearrange sections" or "re-order entries" would have been spot on.
:::And as for that particular edit, I just wanted to say – in addition to my edit summaries – that I don't object to your changes to the "Art and entertainment" section, but moving the musician into a seciton of its own isn't optimal: it's usually best to avoid one-entry sections, and in this case a section like "People with the name" might lead readers to expect to find people whose actual name it is the ambiguous term (rather than an artistic pseudonym as in this case), and any other section title would probably clash with the name of the major section on this dab; I don't think it's surprising to find a musician under the heading of "Music". – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 18:05, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

== Organisation of dab pages ==
Hi and thank you for your work. I just wanted to say that I believe you're sometimes overcomplicated the structure of dab pages. Breaking up already small sections into smaller ones, adding additional levels of subsections, or making the section headings long – these all make the navigational structure of the dab page a bit cumbersome. A decent amount of structure helps readers go around the page, but if there's too much of it it can start getting in the way. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 23:41, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
:I've brought up a similar question at [[Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Disambiguation pages#How much structure is too much?]]. Feel free to comment there. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 04:16, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

'''[[meta:Translat-a-thon/NYC/2019|Translat-a-thon NYC 2019 @ LaGuardia Community College]]''' is hosting the second annual Wikipedia Translatathon! At this event on '''Thursday evening and during the day Friday this week''', anyone from the public is invited to LaGuardia to join students, professors, and CUNY faculty in translating Wikipedia articles among any languages which attendees understand. Themes for this event include public health and the history of New York City.
 
New York City has a large immigrant population and great diversity of speakers of various languages. Among all schools in New York City, LaGuardia has the highest percentage of immigrant students, the highest percentage of students who speak a language other than English as their first language, and the greatest representation of language diversity. It is a strength of LaGuardia that it can present "Wikipedia translatathons", which are Wikipedia translation events.

== Numbers from one to ten ==

Please spell out numbers from one to ten as words when used in article text, as instructed at [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Numbers as figures or words]]. Thanks. [[User:Celia Homeford|Celia Homeford]] ([[User talk:Celia Homeford|talk]]) 13:12, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
:Hello, Celia Homeford - Numerous grammatical guides point out multiple instances when numerals, rather than words representing numbers, should be used (e.g., to indicate a person's age), and other instances when the numbers one to nine (not 10) should be spelled out, while 10 and above should be written numerically. These points are also noted in the linked page you cited. Therefore, it would be useful if you'd point out the instances where you feel my edits violated appropriate usage of numbers. (If, perchance, you're referring to my writing season and episode numbers as numerals rather than words, then please note:  it's a convention in article titles to use numerals when referring to seasons and episodes; consequently, it would be inconsistent to write, for example, "season 1, episode 2" in a title and "season one, episode two" in paragraph form. - Cheers, [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 21:34, 3 May 2019 (UTC)

== A few recent dab cleanup errors ==

* Re: [[Clean]] and others: No dictionary definition entries ([[MOS:WTLINK]]). 
**True; it might be constructive for you direct that comment to whatever editor(s) created the article [[Clean]] (and the unspecified "others")
***The dictionary definition you added to [[Clean]] is the one I removed [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Clean&diff=895338449&oldid=895338398 here]. That kind of entry should never be there.
* Re: [[Clean]]: All subsections need to belong logically to their parent section ([[WP:LONGDAB]]) 
**Agreed, in principle. But my many encounters with Wikipedia articles, since I began using, then editing Wikipedia, revealed sufficient numbers of editors use the category title "Arts, entertainment, and media" (as does section 3.1 on the page you linked to) that doing so is a convention, if not a consensus
***The error you made was leaving "Other uses in arts, entertainment, and media" as a ''subsection'' of "Music". It is not. There is no wiggle room for interpretation there; you erred.
* There is [[Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style/Disambiguation_pages/Archive_42#People_and_Places_at_the_top?|no consensus]], nor has there ever been one, to put "People" and "Places" at the top of the page. These sections should be in their normal alphabetic positions unless there is a compelling local reason to do otherwise.
:#There's no consensus, but a preponderance of Wikipedia DAB pages I've encountered since I began reading and later editing Wikipedia has followed the introductory content with the category Places, followed by People unless, as you stated, "there is a compelling logical reason to do otherwise" In those latter instances, Places, then People, then alphabetized categories typically followed. Sometimes the ordering of those two categories was reversed. I saw both approaches frequently enough, and read enough discussions on the subject that it was apparent numerous editors viewed that ordering as a convention. 
:#It's worth reiterating, I didn't create the idea; rather, that DAB page structure was commonly in use before I ever began editing Wikipedia. 
:#I read the discussion your link pointed me to, but that discussion underscores the extant lack of consensus you cited, e.g., the discussants disagree about   where to place the categories in question and why r.
:#Discussion is good, but w/o consensus, your statement, "These sections should be in their normal alphabetic positions unless there is a compelling local reason to do otherwise", is an articulation of your preference rather than a directive. [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 22:55, 3 May 2019 (UTC)
***Alphabetization is the default behavior, and therefore the [[WP:STATUSQUO]]. There doesn't need to be a consensus ''against'' the People/Places practice – what matters is there's no consensus ''for'' it, and therefore no reason you should ever change a page to it without that compelling reason, which must be ''specific to the page in question'': You can do it on a page whose title is ''predominantly'' a personal or place name, otherwise no. —[[User:Swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[User talk:Swpb|T]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:BEYOND|go beyond]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:MIAB|bad idea]]</sup> 18:37, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

== Oranisation of dab pages, again ==

Sorry to be bringing this up yet again, but I don't think your reorganisations of dab pages are helpful most of the time. There was a discussion (linked [[#Organisation of dab pages|above]]), in which you were invited but did not participate), and there was consensus there that breaking up dab pages into so many sections and subsections (and subsubsections) is not a good idea. You do, however, seem to have continued to make such edits at quite a steady rate. That's not good. I think that you should either participate in the discussion and persuade everybody else that your approach is helpful, or you should you stop following it. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 21:00, 4 May 2019 (UTC)

== Stop using misleading summaries ==
[[File:Dialog-stop-hand.svg]]
You were recently [[User_talk:Froid#Edit_summaries_2|guided]] by [[User:Uanfala|Uanfala]], and even more recently [[User_talk:Froid#May_2019|warned]] by me, that your dab edit summaries are not acceptable.

# The word '''[[Wikipedia:Categorization|"category"]]''' has a very specific meaning on Wikipedia, and it does not encompass the edits you make to dab pages. You are rearranging ''sections'', ''entries'', or ''headings'', ''NOT'' "categories". Your summary must conform to everyone else's understanding of language, not your own definitions. 
:OK.[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 20:13, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
# Re-arranging the majority of text on a page, as you did at [[Exhaust]] or [[Hard boiled (disambiguation)]], is ''never'' "minor".
:I thought merely organizing/rearranging, rather than making major changes to content was minor; but ok.[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 20:13, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
Although you have several dab-editing quirks that your fellow editors disagree with, this one has no wiggle room, and it must stop immediately. If you're using a summary auto-filling tool, you should probably turn it off if you can't use it responsibly. Consider this a level 2 warning. —[[User:Swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[User talk:Swpb|T]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:BEYOND|go beyond]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:MIAB|bad idea]]</sup> 18:42, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

== About the organisation of dab pages ==

Hi, I'm glad that you're back. I've come across several of your edits to dab pages and they're mostly helpful. I appreciate that. I'm sorry for bringing up something that has been raised many times before, but isn't there any way you could avoid breaking up dab pages into numerous very small sections? Sections with only one entry in them, as [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Linger&oldid=899102921 here] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Snare&oldid=899190794 here], are almost never a good idea.  – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 12:44, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
:Hello, Uanfala. Thank you.  In general, I agree that single item groupings should be avoided when possible, but at the same time recognize that such a guideline has valid exceptions, such as People and Places entries, which I believe warrant distinct groupings. Would you please specify: how would you handle them?[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 08:09, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
::If there's only one entry in a section, I would merge it into "Other uses". I don't think there's anything special about "People" or "Places" – the fact that many dab pages have such sections doesn't mean that all should have them. I understand that you and one other editor disagree, but this should be weighted against the disadvantages of having a one-entrt section: it bloats the table of contents without providing much in the way of navigational help to offset the added clutter. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 11:33, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

== Again about the organisation of dab pages ==

I'm fining it difficult to believe that you should continue with [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flight_(disambiguation)&diff=902369269&oldid=902146100 these] types of edits after all the discussions and especially after the ANI thread last month. To answer your edit summary: no, if there are two entries in a section that doesn't automatically make it good. The problem is that you're breaking up dab pages into a large number of small sections and subsections that result in a disproportionately complicated section structure and an unnecessarily long table of contents, which become an impediment to readers using the dab page.

Look at the Flight dab page [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flight_(disambiguation)&direction=prev&oldid=902134498 before you edited it]: it had six very reasonable sections, each having about seven or eight entries – that was ''okay''. Now look at the same page [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Flight_(disambiguation)&direction=next&oldid=889660445 after your edit]: it's got five main sections, then one of those sections is split up into five subsections, and one of those subsections is in turn split up into three further sub-subsections. That makes for 13 headings in total, at three levels of organisation. This is ''not okay''.

Of course, there is some leeway here. For example, replacing the 8-entry section "Film and television" with two sections, "Film" with five entries and "Television" with three is alright; I don't think it's much of an improvement, but it's alright. However, breaking up the "Music" section three subsections "Albums and EPs", "Songs", and "Other uses in music" is going over the top. Also, it's perfectly acceptable to have "Films", "Music" and "Literature" as separate nodes in the classification: there's no need to subsume them all under a big "Art, entertainment and media" megasection – the point of organising dab pages is not to make an exhaustive and logically precise classification of entities, but to make it easy for readers to find what they're looking for. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 12:48, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
*Froid, it doesn't seem like you've changed your ways in this respect. See for example [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Trill&oldid=923051981 this version of Trill]. With just twelve entries, this page could have easily done without sections, but you've somehow managed to introduce eight sections, at three different levels. This is way over the top. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 02:05, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
:I disagree with you and insist that you note that on many pages I've reduced the number of sections and levels. I <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Froid|contribs]]) 08:12, 26 October 2019 (UTC)</small>
::Yes, I acknowledge you do a lot of good work on dab pages. However, in terms of the complexity of section organisation, you still seem to regularly take dab pages that are already suboptimal and to reorganise them in a way that pushes them even further away from the optimum. That's not just me – this was briefly discussed [[Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style/Disambiguation_pages/Archive_42#How_much_structure_is_too_much?|here]] a few months ago, and if I remember correctly it was also brought up at the ANI thread – that's the view of community at large. – [[User talk:Uanfala|Uanfala (talk)]] 10:33, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

You are invited to join us at the "picnic anyone can edit" in the lovely Southpoint Park on [[Roosevelt Island]], as part of the [[Wikipedia:Wiknic|Great American Wiknic]] celebrations being held across the USA.  Remember it's a wiki-picnic, which means [[potluck]].

This year the Wiknic will double as a "Strategy Salon" ([[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Wiknic 2019#Discussion|more information at Wiknic page]]), using open space technology to address major questions facing our social movement.

== Stop making messes ==

I just cleaned up another one of your disambiguation page messes at [[Star (disambiguation)]]. You continue to make edits that break with [[WP:MOSDAB]] without reason, and you constantly create typos in wikicode that break both entries and headers. If you can't stop making these mistakes, then please restrict your dab work to alphabetizing/sorting entries ''within'' sections, which you seem to do well at. I'm sure you'd rather self-correct than spend more time at ANI. —[[User:Swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[User talk:Swpb|T]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:BEYOND|go beyond]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:MIAB|bad idea]]</sup> 18:25, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
:I'll refrain from posting the reply your post warrants. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Froid|contribs]]) </small>

Let me recalibrate. I've checked over quite a few of your recent dab edits, and they are mostly ok (one note – periodicals are absolutely a type of literature). And since you did (eventually) correct the misleading summaries that took you to ANI last time, I should assume you're trying to improve and work with, not against, the rest of the community. I'm not saying everything is fine, but I could have been less harsh on Friday, and I think I can tentatively back off from watching your work so closely. If you feel like I need to see a reply here, ping me. —[[User:Swpb|<u>swpb</u>]]<sup>[[User talk:Swpb|T]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:BEYOND|go beyond]]&#8201;•&#8201;[[WP:MIAB|bad idea]]</sup> 14:58, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

:* '''RE: "periodicals are absolutely a type of literature".''' True, but - point of fact - although periodicals ''are'' a type of [https://www.bing.com/search?FORM=HIBCDF&PC=HIBC&q=define+literature literature (which is broadly defined as "written works")], professional organizers of written materials (e.g., trained librarians and bookstore organizers) distinguish periodicals (and such works as comics) from other forms of literature (e.g, books, essays, long- and short-form fiction and non-fiction, plays, poetry, and the like). A stroll through any library or bookstore amply illustrates this distinction. Apparently, judging by the number of Wikipedia articles I have read but not edited, I'm not rare amongst Wikipedians who (like librarians and bookstore organizers) distinguish between periodicals (and in some Wikipedians' cases, like this one's, comics) and other forms of literature. 
:* '''Food for thought, for your benefit, not mine (and, therefore, a reply is neither expected nor requested)''': "With" vs. "against the community" statements reflect thinking that numerous experts have pointed out is avoided by those who approach differences with a win-win mindset, and by those who practice effective teamwork and/or contribute productively to learning organizations. The same goes for condescension, sarcasm, insults, and attempts at intimidation, whether brazen (as in your  August 9 post and other statements you have made to or about me) or back-handed (as in your August 12 statement). Such communications typically reflect more upon those who transmit them than on the recipients, often lack the intended impact, and can backfire by diminishing the credibility and effectiveness both of the communicator and their message. Taking my own points in this paragraph to heart, I'll stop here.[[User:Froid|Froid]] ([[User talk:Froid#top|talk]]) 17:46, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

== Backlog Banzai ==

In the month of September, [[WP:MILHIST|Wikiproject Military history]] is running a project-wide edit-a-thon, '''Backlog Banzai'''. There are heaps of different areas you can work on, for which you claim points, and at the end of the month all sorts of whiz-bang awards will be handed out. Every player wins a prize! There is even a bit of friendly competition built in for those that like that sort of thing. Sign up now at '''[[Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/September 2019 Backlog Banzai]]''' to take part. For the coordinators, [[User:Peacemaker67|Peacemaker67]]  ([[User_talk:Peacemaker67|click to talk to me]]) 08:18, 22 August 2019 (UTC)

== Your edits to dab pages ==

I have a huge problem with them. You have butchered [[Mint]], for example. The most prominent topics are now hidden at the bottom of the list because of your obsession with alphabetical order. Did your visit to AN/I not leave any impression on you? &mdash;[[User:Xezbeth|Xezbeth]] ([[User talk:Xezbeth|talk]]) 10:56, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
:Temper yourself. Mint is NOT butchered; it's now much better organized now than it was before. As ''you're'' so concerned about AN/I, then you should recall there are some commenters there who emphatically insisted upon the use of alphabetical order (which to some extent I've taken efforts to honor, for the reason addressed further below); in contrast, I believe Places/Geography, then People should precede most other groupings/entries, but that there is occasionally content that should obviously precede Places/Geography and People groupings because it's so closely associated with the disambiguation page's topic.  However, because there's no definitive, objective standard that I know of that Wikipedia uses to determine which topics should be considered - as you call them - "more prominent topics" that should incontrovertibly be placed at the top of a disambiguation page, then the proper order would be subjective unless alphabetization were used.  It's for that reason I am not strongly opposed to those editors who vehemently insist upon alphabetical order.  Have you considered taking things up with them? Oh, and by the way, I don't use terms like "huge problem", but if I did, anything in my life that I might characterize as a "huge problem" would certainly be far more meaningful in the scheme of life than ''anything'' associated with Wikipedia.

The '''Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met''' will be hosted at the [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]] on '''Saturday November 16, 2019''' in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

The museum is excited to work with [[meta:Wikipedia Asian Month 2019|Wikipedia Asian Month]] for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of [[Asia]]. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely. Asia Art Archive will host a sister event in Hong Kong next week.

== Wikiproject Military history coordinator election nominations open ==

Nominations for the upcoming project coordinator election are now open. A team of up to ten coordinators will be elected for the next year. The project coordinators are the designated points of contact for issues concerning the project, and are responsible for maintaining our internal structure and processes.

Wikipedia Day is always a big day for [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC|Wikimedia NYC]]. While we cannot meet in person, we still have something special planned. We will begin the event with the debut of a new video celebrating our community. This will be followed by a panel discussion with some of the people you'll see in the video talking about [[m:Wikipedia 20|Wikipedia's 20th anniversary]], Wikimedia New York City, and the amazing work they do on Wikimedia projects.

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbqxsJaTDQM The event will be broadcast live via YouTube]. Feel free to ask questions for the panel through the chat!

Responses will go directly to Barretto Consulting and the Wikimedia NYC board will receive responses in aggregate and to identify cross-cutting themes.

You are invited to join the [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC|Wikimedia NYC]] community and visitors from the global [[Wikimedia Foundation]] for our '''[[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/March 2023|WikiWednesday Salon by Grand Central]]''', in-person at [https://convene.com/locations/new-york-city/101-park-avenue/ Convene 101 Park Avenue] in the vicinity of Manhattan's [[Grand Central Terminal]]. No experience of anything at all is required. All are welcome!

This is somewhat of a sequel to last year's [[Wikipedia:Meetup/NYC/Brunch]] in terms of the participants, though this time it is an evening event in a different borough.

We may leaven the event with a few impromptu [[lightning talk]]s, a Wiki-fashion show (yes, really!), and likely an afterparty tour.

All attendees are subject to Wikimedia NYC's [[meta:Wikimedia New York City/Code of Conduct|Code of Conduct]]. In addition, to participate in person you should be vaccinated and also be sure to respect others' personal space, and we may limit overall attendance size if appropriate.
