== Edit warring ==

Since you cannot decipher the diffs, I'll be happy to do step-by-step edits for your edification. The result will be the same. Just stay out until I'm done. [[User:Grorp|Grorp]] ([[User talk:Grorp|talk]]) 04:14, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
:{{ping|Grorp}} Not that you can make that demand, but it's fine with me. And stop making false accusations of edit warring. Nobody has crossed that line yet but you are much closer to it.   It's a highly contentious article with significant warranted concerns about COI edits by Scientology folks.   A massive bundle of individually un-revertable edits is a way to remove scrutiny by making it too time consuming (not the BS "cannot decipher" crap) to review/deal with which is not appropriate in this case. And so a more incremental approach is common practice for these cases, not for my "edification"    Please unbundle into individually revertible edits with edit summaries, or take it to talk if you  disagree with that approach. I don't know the situation with regards to yourself, but if you are simply NPOV working to improve the article, thank you for your efforts.   Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 04:29, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

:: If you have no prior knowledge of my editing work in the Wikipedia pages of Scientology, then I invite you to look at my edit history (contributions). FYI, tiny-steps-edits are not my style and don't fit with the way my brain works while trying to update out-of-date articles. When I feel there might be blowback on an edit, I usually have more to say than can fit in an edit summary and direct readers to the talk page. The rest of my edits are pretty recognizable and/or non-controversial. By now, I'm pretty sure you've been able to see that the edits I had made in that article were not controversial at all.

:: Most of the Scientology articles were written in the flush of massive public interest around 2008 when Anonymous came on the scene to protest Scientology. Many of the articles have little "digs" that aren't really appropriate for an encyclopedia, and are not necessary for readers to understand the subject. As such, a lot of the 'see also' and 'external links' sections are bloated with redirection to other (usually negative) articles of Scientology which are unrelated to the topic of the page. Citations have aged and need their URLs updated from current websites or copies gotten from online archives. Many articles suffer from "too many cooks" (including enthusiastic additions by critics and careful excisions by Scientologists) and no longer make any sense when you read them; those need straightening out.

:: The article [[Scientology status by country]] has been on my list of things to work on, but [[Special:Diff/1133485677|Xxxxx's edit]]  took me there and one thing led to another. I hope my transfigured incrementals makes sense to you. Don't, however, expect incrementals from me as a custom. It is my hope that you will recognize the style and worth of my edits and see my good faith efforts to improve the encyclopedia and be willing to try to decipher atypical diffs rather than request exhaustive explanations.

:::{{Ping|Grorp}}}  Thanks for the ping, the explanation and your work.  My points remain the same and so I won't repeat them.

== Trickle-Down NPOV topic ==

Your last addition was fantastic.  I've been trying to make this point for awhile and I think your example is the best one so far.  We need to be very careful discussing impacts because we are validating the concept in wikivoice.  The welfare queen example is perfect.  If we say this is the impact, we de facto are calling them welfare queens through synth.  Good response!  [[User:Squatch347|Squatch347]] ([[User talk:Squatch347|talk]]) 20:10, 1 February 2023 (UTC)
:{{ping|Squatch347}}  Thanks!  I have an interest in this term-related structurally more than NPOV.  In this case it has NPOV impact.

The relevant text is in the pink box located at the [[WP:3RR]] hyperlink - {{tq|An edit or a series of consecutive edits that undoes or manually reverses other editors' actions—whether in whole or in part—counts as a revert.}}

Best. [[User:Newimpartial|Newimpartial]] ([[User talk:Newimpartial|talk]]) 21:29, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
:I read that differently. That if a combination of consecutive edits is a revert, it's still a revert even if each one alone is not. Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 21:42, 7 March 2023 (UTC)
:: I hear what you're saying, but given the very generous way individual edits are interpteted as reverts in general, it isn't clear to me how a revert could emerge in the aggregate from edits that are not themselves reverts, considered separately. But in any event, the "case law" at WP:3RRN is fairly clear that consecutive edits always count as only a single revert.

== [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/World War II and the history of Jews in Poland|World War II and the history of Jews in Poland]]: Arbitration case opened ==

Hello {{u|North8000}},

You recently offered a statement in a request for arbitration. The Arbitration Committee has accepted that request for arbitration and an arbitration case has been opened at [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/World War II and the history of Jews in Poland]]. Evidence that you wish the arbitrators to consider should be added to the evidence subpage, at [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/World War II and the history of Jews in Poland/Evidence]]. '''Please add your evidence by April 04, 2023, which is when the first evidence phase closes.''' Submitted evidence will be summarized by Arbitrators and Clerks at [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/World War II and the history of Jews in Poland/Evidence/Summary]]. Owing to the summary style, editors are encouraged to submit evidence in small chunks sooner rather than more complete evidence later.

Details about the summary page, the two phases of evidence, a timeline and other answers to frequently asked questions can be found at [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/World War II and the history of Jews in Poland/FAQ|'''the case's FAQ page''']].

For a guide to the arbitration process, see [[Wikipedia:Arbitration/Guide to arbitration]].

== COI "gap" ==

Hello [[User:North8000|North8000]],

Just a quick note to greet you outside of a noticeboard discussion. 

I appreciated your recent comment at the COIN thread [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest/Noticeboard#Another_self-report_to_get_consensus_on_boundaries_of_COI] that there is something tangible, in certain closely examined cases, between "strongly discouraged" and "forbidden" re COI editing. Part of the community seems to be using the "wikilawyering" charge to shut down any thoughtful exploration of that gap, which I find egregiously unjust. 

You make the comment above that "too often Wikipedia is a nasty place". I feel this, and may or may not resume editing the encyclopaedia. 

In case it's of interest, I made some general comments re my concerns about the editor experience, and tendentious applications of WP policy, in my statement at my user page. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Walton22]

I found the content and tone of your contribution to that thread refreshing. 

Sincerely, [[User:Walton22|Walton22]] ([[User talk:Walton22|talk]]) 21:50, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|Walton22}}  Thanks for the post and compliment.  I really don't enough about the situation to have an opinion.  The universe of Wikipedia editing can be a weird alternate universe and often a rough and tumble or nasty one. I don't have the wiki-minutes to take a deep broad dive, but if I can ever advise or help, let me know. Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 14:55, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

::{{ping|North8000}} Thank you very much. I was happy to just make broad brush strokes now by way of this introduction, but I do very much appreciate the offer to counsel a little in the future if need be. "Alternate universe" is right! There is great potential for justice here, and indeed I see it happen often. [[User:Walton22|Walton22]] ([[User talk:Walton22|talk]]) 16:23, 16 March 2023 (UTC)

::*The edit must add new lines of text, not just edit existing lines.
::*The edit must be signed by adding <code><nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></code> to the end of the message.
::*The edit must either be entirely within an existing section (it cannot have new section headers in the middle) or start a new section (starts with a new section header).

== kkk ==

I think you may be misrepresenting me [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AKu_Klux_Klan&diff=1161957977&oldid=1161956132 here]. I am trying to abide by [[WP:CIVIL]], as we all should. I find it troublesome, but perhaps it was just an accident? [[User:Darknipples|DN]] ([[User talk:Darknipples|talk]]) 04:24, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Darknipples}} I didn't write anything by accident nor did I write anything uncivil. I did civilly take issue with one thing that you said about those who feel opposite that you do but even that was just a sidebar to my post.   From your apologetic post I think you are being sincere and so I would like to offer a thought that might be useful.  I've familiar with TFD's work (for over a decade) and they are one of the most careful, non-emotional, academic and source-based editors that I've interacted with.  Their arguments (and mine) are just trying to sort out / discuss the specific narrow topics that you opened the section with.  I think that you are misreading this as being about some broader POV struggle.   There's nobody there who likes the KKK. IMO there are  people who want to make the KKK article be (just) about the KKK. What reinforced my thought about the possible misreading was that quote that you closed you post with is something the to me looks like excellent relevant material for the article but you seemed to mistakenly thinking that the people who want to exclude that (IMHO irrelevant) material that you opened the section with have some broader exclusion goals which they don't have. In short, you may be  imagining a battle that does not exist. And that a good way to sort that out would be to not conflate the narrow topic of your post that started that section with the other topics that you are mentioning, and to use the test of relevance to the article to help sort things out. Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 12:52, 26 June 2023 (UTC)
::I'll clarify my so-called "absurd argument" for you. It's because ''it is'' excluding him, not entirely, but it's still exclusion. If that's how you want to interpret it, that's up to you. I clarified that I wasn't accusing anyone and that I was talking about under-representation, not disassociation. You seemingly used a misinterpretation as a means to discredit arguments I technically wasn't trying to make, which is a [[Straw man]]. That is not something I get bent out of shape over because it isn't typically uncivil. Where it crossed the line was calling it "absurd" (your word) which adds [[Appeal to ridicule]] on top of the misrepresentation. Now try to look at it from my perspective. If my response to you was...{{tq|"I didn't write anything by accident nor did I write anything uncivil"}}, what would you do? Would you still take the time to try to clear the air in effort to keep things CIVIL? Think about it, unfortunately I won't be responding on the article talk page until this gets sorted out. Cheers. [[User:Darknipples|DN]] ([[User talk:Darknipples|talk]]) 01:42, 27 June 2023 (UTC)
::BTW I don't mean to sound condescending, by linking those logical fallacies. I do agree with and respect the rest of your explanation, but I don't feel as though I am being acknowledged or understood properly, so when I respond sometimes I overcompensate. [[User:Darknipples|DN]] ([[User talk:Darknipples|talk]]) 02:31, 27 June 2023 (UTC)

{{Ping|Darknipples}} There seems to be a fundamental misunderstanding.  I NEVER said that you made an absurd argument. Let's let the actual words speak for themselves.  Please review the following: 
* You made the following statement: "While I don't agree with the explanations I've been given as to why excluding David Duke from the KKK article...."
* And I responded to /referred to that statement saying "you open with saying that somebody made the absurd argument to generally exclude David Duke from the article (which I don't see anyone having said anything like that)"
It is not abundantly clear that this is NOT calling your argument absurd?  My complaint was that you were misstating the arguments of others in a way that makes them / their argument look absurd.

== Update on my status as a wikipedia editor ==

I just receive a notice on my talk page.

It seems I've been given a broad, indefinite ban on editing wikipedia articles.

No explanation has been given to me as to what I've done wrong.

I don't understand this. At all. Something is very wrong, here.

{{Ping|Sbelknap}} You are banned from editing ''certain'' Wikipedia articles.  I've not looked at the background leading up to this. Regarding degree of culpability maybe there are three possibilities: 

#Your behavior was fine by both Wikipedia real world standards and the result was a travesty. 
#You behavior was fine by real world standards but (possibly in good faith.....ala "take it to talk") not by Wiki standards.   With the most likely issue being [[WP:bludgeoning]].  And some thinking by the crowd that the referred to emerging-science that is overtaking widely accepted folklore widely presumed to be science-based but which has no basis in science.   
#Your behavior was outrageous by Wiki standards .....maybe extreme [[WP:bludgeoning]] and maybe strongly pushing ideas (aside from the above) which are actually fringier.

My guess is that #2 is most likely. If so, based on what you said at ANI you've probably learned that and already shifted course. If so, I'd suggest editing the 99% of Wikipedia that you are not banned from (and practice that) and then ask to have the ban removed in 6 months or a year. In case it might help and if you wish, I'd agree to watch you for a month after that.

== Do you have the authority to review AFC submissions? ==

I notice that you consistently like my new articles but they have a lot of trouble with getting through AFC. Are you an AFC reviewer too? [[User:Immanuelle|'''Immanuel'''le]] ❤️💚💙 [[User_talk:Immanuelle|(talk to the cutest Wikipedian)]] 18:18, 11 October 2023 (UTC)
:{{ping|Immanuelle}} I think that the short answer is yes, (the long answer is that it is not an explicit authority)  but I haven't been doing AFC reviews.  I think that the (unintended) standard for getting out of AFC is tougher than passing NPP patrol because the AFC reviewer is sort of saying "this article is overall fine" where in NPP patrol we are sort of saying "it's OK for an article on this topic to exist."   If you have one that you'd like me to look at ping me and I'd be happy to and do my first AFC review.

:::{{Ping|Immanuelle}}  That one has a few things that make it complicated.   Let's say that it wasn't already at AFC and I ran across it as a harried NPP'er who has about '''5 minutes or less''' to review the article. (NPP is basicaly a case of about 20 reviewers trying to review about 500 articles per day) . I'd give the article a quick first read and then look at the references.  There is (only) one paragraph on line.  The other 2 references are to off-line books. ''There is nothing wrong with that''!  However that leave me unable to verify suitable GNG coverage.  Next I would try to read the article to understand what it is saying / to learn what I can from the topic.   I must say that from a typical reader's standpoint, it is rough going. Throughout, your explanations utilize/depend on terms that the reader does not know.   Many are linked, but IMO links are to provide ''additional'' info rather than to make the sentence understandable by a typical reader.  So my recommendation would be to add a lot more plain English explanations.   So I read the article (without reading/learning all of the linked articles) and really didn't get an understanding of the topic from reading it.....if I had, that would have helped me assess.  So I'd google the topic.  Didn't find any in-depth coverage but found enough to know that it's a real/legit topic and which sounds likely to have more substantial off-line coverage. So I'd take a gamble and give it a NPP pass.   And I usually like to send the creator a note with a compliment or thanking them for their work. So, in my hypothetical scenario, I wasn't able to confirm that suitable GNG coverage existed, but took a guess/gamble that it does. 
:::For this particular article, an AFC reviewer has already declined it so me jumping in would be a case of saying that I'm using my guess to override their review. 
:::There are lots of possibilities here, too many to try to cover in my first post. Maybe a good next step is to ask for any thoughts of yours at this point?

:::::{{Ping|Immanuelle}} If I were to run across that article during new page patrol, I would pass it.   But IMHO it has the same readability problem that I discussed above.  A reader could not learn anything from just reading it unless they first know/learn the specialized terms than nearly every sentence is dependent on. Let me give you an example. 

:::::*'''Sentence dependent on knowledge of the terms:''' The nucleus of the atom holds together because the [[Strong interaction|strong force]] exceeds the [[Coulomb's law]] force.  

:::::*'''More explanatory...a person can learn something from reading it even if they do not know the meanings of the linked terms:'''   Since the protons within a nucleus of an atom are positively charged particles, they [[Coulomb's law|electrostatic]] force would make them repel each other, tending to make the nucleus fly apart.  But at the close distances within the nucleus, the [[Strong interaction|strong force]] is even stronger, thus holding the nucleus together.

Your removal of the Buffy Sainte Marie update that she is not Indigenous was corrected. Nice try. [[Special:Contributions/2001:569:7133:1600:5428:DB94:1845:9CA5|2001:569:7133:1600:5428:DB94:1845:9CA5]] ([[User talk:2001:569:7133:1600:5428:DB94:1845:9CA5|talk]]) 08:56, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

:At the time it was an unsourced BLP violation, and that was explained.  As sources became available, I supported the addition.

You have to admit what I posted was the truth and you removed that. At the time the truth was not available online as Buffy has spent 60 years (and the entire existence of the Internet) weaving her false story. Now Wikipedia is one of the only places where researchers can find the truth about Buffy. Encyclopedia Britannica (lies), PBS documentaries (lies), Numerous Major Award sites (lies) and pretty much the rest of the Internet and so called authorities have validated her lies. I am glad that numerous contributors updated her wikipedia page and you came to accept the truth, Buffy is a Pretendian. :(  <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/2001:569:7133:1600:EC53:E8D5:9F9F:8ADB|2001:569:7133:1600:EC53:E8D5:9F9F:8ADB]] ([[User talk:2001:569:7133:1600:EC53:E8D5:9F9F:8ADB#top|talk]]) 00:17, 1 November 2023 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Railway station ==

Hi. I'm here to talk about what you did with [[Piaseczno Narrow-Gauge Railway]]. It's a mess. You cannot just change he name of article (Wierzbno station) and pretend its entirely new article. You didn't write anything about the railway, you didn't change the interlanguage link, and you didn't mention any other railway stations. Not to mention it's not even the first time you took upon yourself to "delete" article about minor railway station without any discussion.[[User:Artemis Andromeda|Artemis Andromeda]] ([[User talk:Artemis Andromeda|talk]]) 12:20, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Artemis Andromeda}} I was going to AFD the railway station article during NPP  (IMO clearly fails wp:notability) but instead thought of using it to start an article on the rail line.  I though another station article (with the same problem which I would have also AFD'd)   which I thought was on the same rail line and planned to put material from both articles into the rail line article.  I knew that it would temporarily be a mess, which is what you noted.  Then I noticed that the second article was not on the same rail line.  That is as far as I got. I think that an article on the rail line (including details and images on the stations) would work out excellently and survive.    At this point, what would you prefer to do?

I feel both are currently in a good state but might need some improvement. I am planning on taking a break rather soon and hope I can get them through quickly before it [[User:Immanuelle|'''Immanuel'''le]] ❤️💚💙 [[User_talk:Immanuelle|(talk to the cutest Wikipedian)]] 20:38, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
:{{Ping|Immanuelle}}  I was off the grid for a few days and it will be a couple days before I get caught back up in Wikipedia. <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 14:18, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

===Owari clan article=== 

====As an experienced NPP reviewer (and more recent AFC reviewer)====
{{Ping|Immanuelle}} As an experienced NPP reviewer (and more recent AFC reviewer)   I would pass it. The main criteria is "should this exist as a separate article in Wikipedia?", with wp:notability being the main question. There are no obvious GNG references to confirm this.  However, taking into account the (very old) period and the more obscure topic, the apparent type and quantity of references, the large diversity of footnoted coherent content developed from the references, I would make a judgement call and pass it. <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 16:05, 16 November 2023 (UTC) 

====General article notes==== 
From my limited knowledge of you past article, this looks much more readable and substantial that many of your previous ones.  By readable" I've seen previous ones that as basicaly unreadable by a typical reader. In nearly every sentence they rely on knowledge of unfamiliar terms to understand what the sentence says.  This article has far fewer of such problems. Alo0s it is more substantial and more content and source that your typical one.<b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 16:05, 16 November 2023 (UTC) 

====As a typical AFC reviewer==== 

As a typical (more cautious) AFC reviewer I might fail it or skip reviewing it.  I'd see no clear cut GNG sources; it would take days of research to see if any of those sources confirm GNG compliance, especially since you did not include page numbers and the sources are off-line.  And since you've had some troubles at the notice boards, I would be particularly cautious and err on the safe side.  <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 16:05, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

===Yamato no Kuni no Miyatsuko article === 

This article is a bit weaker in all of the areas I discussed above in the Owari section.    I'll need more looking at it before I could say anything.   Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 16:05, 16 November 2023 (UTC)
:To a typical reader, this article is nearly unreadable.  Nearly every sentence relies on knowledge on some obscure term to even know what the sentence says. Having an internal link to a term does not change that, a reader should not have to read another article just to figure out what each sentences says. Internal links are generally more "for further reading".    Also, you are creating redlinks for plan English words where the target of the redlink is not even in the sentence. I would not consider these items grounds to reject an article, but having an article with a severe problem in this area is a significant problem.

== RFA2024 update: no longer accepting new proposals in phase I ==

Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review|2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review]] is now '''no longer accepting new proposals'''. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship|RfA]]'s structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:

* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 2: Add a reminder of civility norms at RfA|Proposal 2]]''', initiated by {{noping|HouseBlaster}}, provides for the addition of a text box at [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship]] reminding all editors of our policies and enforcement mechanisms around decorum.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 3: Add three days of discussion before voting (trial)|Proposals 3]]''' and '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 3b: Make the first two days discussion-only (trial)|3b]]''', initiated by {{noping|Barkeep49}} and {{noping|Usedtobecool}}, respectively, provide for trials of discussion-only periods at RfA. The first would add three extra discussion-only days to the beginning, while the second would convert the first two days to discussion-only.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 4: Prohibit threaded discussion (trial)|Proposal 5]]''', initiated by {{noping|SilkTork}}, provides for a trial of RfAs without threaded discussion in the voting sections.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/2024_review/Phase_I#Proposal 6c: Provisional adminship via sortition (admin nomination)|Proposals 6c]]''' and '''[[Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/2024_review/Phase_I#Proposal 6d: Provisional adminship via sortition (criteria to be determined)|6d]]''', initiated by {{noping|BilledMammal}}, provide for allowing users to be selected as provisional admins for a limited time through various concrete selection criteria and smaller-scale vetting.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 7: Threaded General Comments|Proposal 7]]''', initiated by {{noping|Lee Vilenski}}, provides for the "General discussion" section being broken up with section headings.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 9b: Require links for claims of specific policy violations|Proposal 9b]]''', initiated by {{noping|Reaper Eternal}}, provides for the requirement that allegations of policy violation be substantiated with appropriate links to where the alleged misconduct occured.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 12c: Lower the high end of the bureaucrats' discretionary zone from 75% to 70%|Proposals 12c]]''', '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 21: Reduce threshold of consensus at RfA|21]]''', and '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 21b: Slightly reduce threshold of consensus at RfA|21b]]''', initiated by {{noping|City of Silver}}, {{u|Ritchie333}}, and {{u|HouseBlaster}}, respectively, provide for reducing the discretionary zone, which currently extends from 65% to 75%. The first would reduce it 65%–70%, the second would reduce it to 50%–66%, and the third would reduce it to 60%–70%.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 13: Admin elections|Proposal 13]]''', initiated by {{noping|Novem Lingaue}}, provides for periodic, privately balloted admin elections.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 14: Suffrage requirements|Proposal 14]]''', initiated by {{noping|Kusma}}, provides for the creation of some minimum suffrage requirements to cast a vote.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 16: Allow the community to initiate recall RfAs|Proposals 16]]''' and '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 16c: Community recall process based on dewiki|16c]]''', initiated by {{noping|Thebiguglyalien}} and {{noping|Soni}}, respectively, provide for community-based admin desysop procedures. 16 would desysop where consensus is established in favor at the [[Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard|administrators' noticeboard]]; 16c would allow a petition to force reconfirmation.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 16e: Allow the community to initiate recall RfBs|Proposal 16e]]''', initiated by {{noping|BilledMammal}}, would extend the recall procedures of 16 to bureaucrats.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 17: Have named Admins/crats to monitor infractions|Proposal 17]]''', initiated by {{noping|SchroCat}}, provides for "on-call" admins and 'crats to monitor RfAs for decorum.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 18: Normalize the RfB consensus requirements|Proposal 18]]''', initiated by {{noping|theleekycauldron}}, provides for lowering the RfB target from 85% to 75%.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 24: Provide better mentoring for becoming an admin and the RfA process|Proposal 24]]''', initiated by {{noping|SportingFlyer}}, provides for a more robust alternate version of the [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Optional RfA candidate poll|optional candidate poll]].
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 25: Require nominees to be extended confirmed|Proposal 25]]''', initiated by {{noping|Femke}}, provides for the requirement that nominees be extended-confirmed in addition to their nominators.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 27: Introduce training/periodic retraining for admins|Proposal 27]]''', initiated by {{noping|WereSpielChequers}}, provides for the creation of a training course for admin hopefuls, as well as periodic retraining to keep admins from drifting out of sync with community norms.
* '''[[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I#Proposal 28: limiting multi-part questions|Proposal 28]]''', initiated by {{noping|HouseBlaster}}, tightens restrictions on multi-part questions.

To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals]]. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing!

==[[Vigraharaja IV's first war against the Muslims]]==
Hello, North8000,

I just thought I'd let you know that this article, which was just moved to this particular title, had the PROD tag you added last week removed. Editors used to be routinely notified if an article they tagged was de-PROD'd but that habit has kind of died out now that we have more articles being de-PROD'd than in the past. So, I just thought I'd alert you in case you wished to take it to [[WP:AFD]]. Thank you. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 21:49, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
:{{ping|Liz}} Thanks for the heads up.  It was sitting in the NPP que for almost 4 months and nothing was happening on problems (including a severe one with the title and thus title-defined subject) long noted by others.  With the title change it would probably need hours of learning by me or involvement of someone more knowledgeable on the topic than me to figure out what to do next. Either way it still has "waiting for NPP" flag on it.   Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 22:07, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

==Tokio Hotel's Your Christmas==

I have found twice now this article redirected to the band's main article. This was down to "no evidence of notability", despite it charting at 42 on Official German Charts. Please enlighten me on what other evidence of notability is needed, because I thought if a song charted in at least one country, that's enough.

[[User:Bandit5660|Bandit5660]] ([[User talk:Bandit5660|talk]]) 12:36, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

:{{Ping|Bandit5660}}  The main idea of wp:notability, including the wording choices at N:Music is having the in depth coverage in sources from which to build an article from.  Similarly in the discussions at other policies and guidelines even if one made points such as yours regarding the wp:notability condition. This article has no such coverage and no such content. IMO it should be merged into the band or album article.   I'm going to step away from this one from a NPP standpoint (and also I'm not tagging it)  and let someone else review it.    Either way, happy editing!<b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 14:56, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

:{{Re|Sohom Datta}} Do you have much experience with Times of India. I can understand where they they might not be reliable enough for various purposes (such as sourcing something controversial for BLP).  But my most common situation is where `I'm evaluating for GNG coverage in the customary degree of stringency.  For example, if they have a substantive article on someone that looks like a real article (not posting a bio supplied by the person).   So we're basically looking for puplished independent coverage.   Do you think that they fall short for that type of thing? Enough so to not look at Times of India when reviewing for GNG coverage? <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 01:22, 29 April 2024 (UTC)

== Re: AfDs ==

Hi North8000, I'd like to raise a concern regarding your AfDs and ask for clarification. I appreciate that you do a lot of review of new pages. However, I'm concerned about how thorough your [[WP:BEFORE]] searches are particularly as they relate to looking for [[Wikipedia:NOENG|native language sources]] are required under step B7 of the process. I notice that you've recently nominated articles for deletion where the primary language is [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mihaaru Awards|Divehi]], [[2023–24 Porsche Carrera Cup Middle East|Arabic]], [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hatirjheel Thana|Bengali]], [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2018 Caloocan Supremos season|Filipino]], [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sabir Alasgarov|Azerbaijani]], and [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shibata Takumi (fund manager)|Japanese]]. These are quite varied languages and the probability that one person can do a competent WP:BEFORE search in all of these languages strikes me as unlikely. Understand you're a far more experienced editor than I am but it strikes me that in some cases articles may be getting deleted that would be kept if someone who spoke the language searched for sources. I appreciate that I was notified when you nominated a page I created but perhaps it would also be appropriate to somehow notify other editors who speak the appropriate language or consult them before making a nomination? Wikipedia is already [[Wikipedia:GLOBAL|known to have a systematic bias towards the Anglo world]] and I would hate for a pattern of AfD nominations to reinforce that bias. Just a note and appreciate that you help cull quite a bit of spam from the website. [[User:DCsansei|DCsansei]] ([[User talk:DCsansei|talk]]) 11:36, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

:{{Ping|DCsansei}} Thanks for that thoughtful post.   I think that even the most thorough search in all languages would not result in a keep on the first 5 of those 6 and maybe also the 6th. Discussing all of them would be a long multi-faceted discussion on each of them I'm not able to do here right now. But maybe if you could pick one of theme to have a more in-depth discussion on I'd be happy to do that and I think it would be helpful.  Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 12:13, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

::I also don't consider myself qualified to evaluate the notability of most of the examples I provided: I don't speak those languages. My interest was piqued by [[Shibata Takumi (fund manager)]], an article I started a few weeks ago with the intention of coming back to but didn't expect the notability to be questioned. I struggle to see how you could come to the conclusion that he isn't notable if a BEFORE search was conducted. I'm working to improve the article a bit now to at least head-off deletion (with the intent of return to it further later). I found [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia%3AArticles_for_deletion%2FShibata_Takumi_%28fund_manager%29&diff=1221351797&oldid=1221351754 your response] when I provided numerous sources a bit dismissive particularly as it relates to perpetrating Wikipedia's tendency to focus entirely on American/English topics despite being a global resource. Shibata was described (in English) by Reuters as [https://www.reuters.com/article/idUSL3N0EI0JS/ one of Japan's most high-profile financial executives] and there are numerous sources describing his various career moves. If English-speaking editors don't view one of the most high-profile business leaders in what was then the world's second largest economy as obviously notable on Wikipedia it's no wonder we have systematic bias. [[User:DCsansei|DCsansei]] ([[User talk:DCsansei|talk]]) 12:41, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
:::{{Ping|DCsansei}} Well that was the "#6" that I referred to which could go either way. Long story short, structurally the current question is whether or not there are two (maybe one will do) published independent sources that cover ''the topic of the article'' (him) in depth.  And the main point behind that is to see if there is enough published in-depth material to create a real wiki-article from.   So the question isn't how "real world notable" he is, the question is whether or not those 2 sources exist.  So if somebody googles a person and finds a whole lot of "hits" that doesn't answer that question. The real work is going through those hits to find the 2 (or maybe 1) sources that fulfill the relevant criteria (or find out that they don't exist). The flip side is that if those 2 (maybe one) sources exist to advise that keeping the article is far simpler than you think.....just identify those two sources and it's a "keep".      

:::There might be a bit of a background thing that affected the shortness of my response. Which might be me (possibly mistakenly) assuming that you know all of the above.  About the 20 most active NPP'ers need to do about 90% of the review work and right now we're struggling to get through /  drowning in a 15,000 article backlog. With the "real work" part being sorting through a bunch of hits to find the 1-2 sources of the right type, your post could be taken as criticizing me for not doing that work while declining to actually do that work.

::::{{Ping|DCsansei}} Here's a copy of my post at that "#6" 
:::::"'''Keep/withdraw''' The creator has increased it from 4 references up to 27 references.  They've also asked me to take a look at those/the article as they are away on vacation/holidays. (IMO this mostly means analyzing all of the new references and finding the GNG-best ones per my request above)....happy to help someone enjoy their vacation/holidays and I did.  Most of the best looking ones are behind paywalls, but as a minimum there are many near-GNG references by top tier sources.   They have also expanded the article substantially with enclyclopedic content, also indicative of the addition of in-depth references.

== Adding a section to a closed discussion. ==

Hi, I do not think it is a good idea to continue a closed discussion, like what you have done at [[Talk:Jordan Peterson#Jubilee medal|this section of the Jordan Peterson talk page regarding the Jubilee medal]] 14 minutes after the closure of that discussion. I have planned to revert it, but due to uncertainty over how appropriate the revision really is (and how appropriate it would be to revert it), I have found it better to instead discuss that revision here with you. [[User:CarlFilip19|CarlFilip19]] ([[User talk:CarlFilip19|talk]]) 21:35, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
:{{Ping|CarlFilip19}}  What I did was both OK and appropriate. Including responding to a comment/accusation about me wrongly implying that I was out of line because I participated in a discussion without an invitation. Or I could have reopened it to make it even more official. But it would be improper to revert it.  :-)   Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 14:07, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

:{{Ping|scope_creep}}  I don't know what you mean by the 2nd half of your sentence, but regarding the first half, IMO it's very solid that there is no reason for it to not be in mainspace.

In your AFD nom, you indicated that is has some low quality sources,    I did not review all 57 sources, just enough to confirm GNG compliance.  If some (or many) of the other 57 have the problems that you describe, that is not a reason to delete the article or preclude it from mainspace. BTW, I plan to move this thread to my talk page.

== History section of [[Neural network (machine learning)]] ==

Dear [[User:North8000]], thanks for your efforts! On 15-16 September 2024 I edited [[Neural network (machine learning)]]. You reverted and wrote: "You are doing massive reassignment of credit for Neural Networks based on your interpretation of their work and primary sources and deleting secondary sourced assignments. Please slow down and take such major reassignments to talk first." So that's what I am doing now. (Not quite sure whether this should be done on the article's talk page or your own.) Please note that most of my edits just resurrected important old references deleted on 7 August 2024 in a major edit when [[User:Cosmia Nebula]] (whose efforts I appreciate) tried to compress the text‎. I also fixed links in some of the old references, added a few new ones (both primary and secondary sources), corrected many little errors, and tried to streamline some of the explanations. IMO these edits substantially improved the history section of the article, although a lot remains to be done. Now I'd like to ask you: please check out the details and revert your revert! Best regards, [[User:Speedboys|Speedboys]] ([[User talk:Speedboys|talk]]) 16:42, 17 September 2024 (UTC)
:Hello {{Ping|Speedboys}} Thanks for your work and your post.   The series of rapid fire edits ended up being entangled where they an't be reviewed/ potentially reverted separately. In that bundle were several which IMO pretty creatively  shifted/assigned credit for being the one to pioneer various aspect. So I'm not open to reinstating that whole linked bundle including those.  Why not just slow down and put those things back in at a pace where they can be reviewed?   And the the ones that are are a reach  (transferring or assigning credit for invention) take to talk first.  You are most familiar with the details of your edits and are in the best position to know those.    I'd be happy to discuss at either place, but may I suggest having this general discussion here and any more specific ones at the article?   Happy editing!

::[[User:North8000]], thanks! Well, all the edits are backed by important references, and most of them aren't novel, just resurrecting old stuff deleted in a massive edit of 7 August 2024 that (unlike mine) has remained unchallenged so far. At your suggestion, I put it in the article's talk page. [[User:Speedboys|Speedboys]] ([[User talk:Speedboys|talk]]) 21:35, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

== NPPing species ==

I'm curious how NPP plans to patrol articles on animal species? To meet the proposed guidance of "valid name exists" a species only needs to be published (no restrictions on being academic or peer-reviewed) using the oldest available, non-invalidated name purporting to be that new taxon. This would mean even a single self-published journal article would be sufficient for a species to have a valid name and therefore warrant a standalone article. And since at least some curated databases do not assess scientific merit of species descriptions they will automatically designate such species as having a "valid name" unless and until someone else publishes something calling it into question -- which means we technically could also have a reliable source for this species even if it is not secondary, independent, or significant. [[User:JoelleJay|JoelleJay]] ([[User talk:JoelleJay|talk]]) 00:03, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

{{Ping|JoelleJay}} Thanks for the post. Didn't quite understand that last sentence.  My first thoughts regarding the other items in your post:   
*Several folks who know this area a lot better than me spent a good amount of time developing the proposal. And so sooner or later it needs to go up for an RFC rather than dying under it's own weight like many discussions do.   I think that it pretty clear that people would be open to tweaking it/ modifying it.  IMO such a two-step process is probably even the best way to move forward.  Get something reasonable in place and then have a separate conversation on where it needs changes. Or maybe it will go fine as currently written.         
*Regarding "how NPP plans to patrol articles on animal species", I don't think that there is an overall plan.  Speaking for myself, I'll need to learn / get fluency on that area to evaluate that sourcing.  I'm guessing that once I do, patrolling one of those will be 20 times easier than the kinds of situations that we are already dealing with.  Like in gng-dependent sports articles where the standard is technically GNG but in practice it isn't.  
*After the (presumed positive) close, if you have an idea on a change to improve it, I'd be happy to work on it with you and support it.   
Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 12:34, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
::Well, the issue as I see it is that the proposal claims that it's impossible to have a valid name without reputable academic sources when this is flatly false for millions of species. Before this proposal, you could dismiss self-published sources via WP:V; but if this passes we now have a guideline explicitly endorsing creation of articles based only on one self-published source. You could argue that WP:V overrides this, but then we're already actively flouting WP:PRIMARY so why should we expect people to observe the one policy but not the other? 
:The point I was trying to make with the last sentence is that even if someone ''is'' trying to avoid self-published sources (even though they would satisfy the guideline), they may assume that the content in a database is RS and secondary when actually it isn't. I showed that mollusks have essentially zero oversight in the mollusk database -- some species get "valid name" status immediately on publication of the primary discovery paper because the author is also a curator for the database, and some species still get this status automatically despite being self-published by someone known to be a taxonomic vandal. We likely have hundreds (maybe thousands? we'd need @[[User:BilledMammal|BilledMammal]] to query this) of articles sourced only to this database (or that plus the primary source) that have had no documented secondary evaluation at all and yet would be impossible to delete with this guideline in place. [[User:JoelleJay|JoelleJay]] ([[User talk:JoelleJay|talk]]) 22:25, 19 September 2024 (UTC)
::{{ping|JoelleJay}} Starting with the caveat that you have more expertise than me on this....  Let's be pragmatic on this.  Positing that it passes, is there a recommended change that you would make?  Or let's discuss to potentially develop one. <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 23:48, 19 September 2024 (UTC)

==Query==
Hello, North8000,

I was looking into the situation of a blocked editor after seeing one of their drafts, see [[User talk:ⵟⵓⵔⴽⵉⵙⵀⴽⴰⴱⵢⵍ]] and noticed that you posted over 30 messages to their User talk page after they were blocked, encouraging them on their editing. While well-intentioned, this seems excessive to me. I'm not sure if these notifications happen automatically or whether you chose to post 30+ talk page messages but I think you should limit the messages to 2 or 3 per day or it easily could be overwhelming especially when it is the exact same message each time. I can see that perhaps you didn't know that the editor was blocked and couldn't respond but it's still just a helluva a lot of messages to an editor on the same day. 

If this is editing behavior that you no longer do, then just ignore this message but I saw this flood of messages (and I've seen it on other user talk pages) and just thought I'd comment. But thanks to you for the encouragement you deliver, I just think you could dial it back a little. I hope you are having a great weekend. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 03:08, 22 September 2024 (UTC)
:Hello {{Ping|Liz}} Thanks for the post.  I usually like to leave a quick nice note after a NPP review. That was sort of an freak occurrence, (being many reviews of articles by the same person at the same time ).  With trying to help on the huge NPP backlog, I usually don't take any extra time to look into the editor or even notice the editor's name. But for the reasons I noted, it's no biggee and easy to do to avoid those unusual occurrences.

It’d be great if you could review it. [[User:Hamza A. Durrani|Hamza A. Durrani]] ([[User talk:Hamza A. Durrani|talk]]) 14:01, 10 December 2024 (UTC)
:Hello {{Ping|Hamza A. Durrani}}  It's a well written article, particularly/given for one which does not have GNG type sources.  The article content does look like routine resume/CV material for an academic.  I don't see any sources which would qualify for meeting wp:notability under [[WP:GNG]].    I'm guessing that he/the article would meet wp:notability under the Special Notability Guideline for Academics but I don't currently do reviews that require that because I haven't yet acquired the expertise / got fluent with that special guideline.  Happy editing!!! Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 19:36, 10 December 2024 (UTC)

Okay, okay, I get it. The amount of notification bells you're sending me is going to cause me to have an heart attack. I thought I was sent to ANI for some reason (this happened to me before!), pinged several times while I was asleep, then blocked. Jesus christ.... [[User:AlphaBetaGamma|ABG]] <small> ([[User talk:AlphaBetaGamma|Talk/Report any mistakes here]]) </small> 23:19, 18 December 2024 (UTC)
:{{Ping|AlphaBetaGamma}}  Thanks for your work.  Certainly nothing "ANI" related.  I did four posts on articles which you created which a copy went to your talk page on.  Three were a heads up on three train station articles which are unlikely to meet wp:notability criteria on.  The fourth was on a train station article which IMO was an edge case and I marked as reviewed.    On all 4 I made the suggestion on a way forward to up-merge or cover them on an article which is on the overall rail line.  Either way, happy editing!  Sincerely, <b style="color: #0000cc;">''North8000''</b> ([[User talk:North8000#top|talk]]) 02:05, 19 December 2024 (UTC)
::(I'm aware [[WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS]] is a thing) I've been confused on what to do on [[WP:NTRAINSTATION|train station articles]] which could just be sent to the railway line article and be called a day, because in the end I'd be yelled at when the massive infobox in the "Stations" section that would be placed if I merged everything and converted the train stations articles into redirects surpasses the rest of the article. 

::The WP:N issue exists with thousands of TRAINSTATION articles, even if you limit the scope to [[WP:TIJ|trains in Japan]]. Of course, some articles have been BLAR'd by some editors, but that's merely a fraction considering some can be improved to prove their point of having an article. (ex. [[Kominato Station]]. Of course, not every articles have the history to be expanded up to GA, but [[Ogawa Station (Aichi)|older stations]] and [[Yumeshima Station|newly built stations]] are usually easier to cover and cite and expand) Because merging literally every station articles is a move that destroys dozens of potentials of GAs and even FAs, (although, there aren't any FAs in the scope of WPTIJ, you can find plenty of GAs in jawiki related to trains) I've hesitated to do the "just mention it in the railway line article, this doesn't meet GNG!" move that everyone does (and should be doing).

::Considering that [[WP:TIJ]] is barely managing to do its work with the small fraction of the former members, a major change of mass BLARing articles with insurmountable [[WP:GNG]] issues and expanding stubs that can be covered and expanded to the point people won't question their notability anymore is impossible.
::[[User:AlphaBetaGamma|ABG]] <small> ([[User talk:AlphaBetaGamma|Talk/Report any mistakes here]]) </small> 02:34, 19 December 2024 (UTC)

:::{{Ping|AlphaBetaGamma}}   Thanks for the post. Well, we both said our things. Rather than discuss those many angles, I'll just limit myself to two notes which might be useful:  IMO it's not necessary (or even advisable) to list all of the stations in the info box of an article on the line.   IMO it would be best to give each station a small subsection in the body of the article (or a row in a table) which would have the factoids that the text is derived from and the image.  The other is that the issue of wp:notability (on these) isn't one of unexpanded articles, it's a matter of having a couple sources which cover ''the topic of the article'' in depth.  The existence of these determines whether it is build-able into an ''enclyclopedia article'' vs where there are just some factoids in sources which the editor expands into sentences. Whether or not that building of the article has already occurred is not the question, except that it can be an indicator of whether or not the GNG sources have been found.

== "Orphan" page ==

Dear North8000, thank you very much for your checking Stano Bubán's page. I really appreciate your work... 

I would like to consult with you:

Admin Reconrabbit added tags to the page using Page Curation (orphan). Even though I studied the issue of "orphan" pages, I did not understand what I should change or redesign on the Stano Bubán's page to remove this bar.
Please, could you advise me, what exactly I should do? After all, the page has links to other internal pages of Wikipedia. For example, at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bratislava, Academy of Fine Arts, Prague, Velvet Revolution, Slovak National Gallery, etc. Should I add more links to other pages from Wikipedia?

I wish you a nice Christmas time... [[User:JoshuaHeri|JoshuaHeri]] ([[User talk:JoshuaHeri|talk]]) 10:17, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

:Dear North8000, thank you for your help... [[User:JoshuaHeri|JoshuaHeri]] ([[User talk:JoshuaHeri|talk]]) 13:59, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello {{Ping|JoshuaHeri}}, 

Thanks for the post.  ((As an aside, Reconrabbit isn't an admin.)  If you want to remove the reason for that tag, find an article elsewhere) where it is appropriate to) create an internal link to the Stano Bubán page and create that link. It's not specifically a problem to not have those links so IMO another approach might be to consider it to be providing some info and say "Thanks for the info" and remove the tag.
