![]() | On 9 July 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Nio Joe Lan, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Nio Joe Lan was trained to maintain aircraft, but instead became a journalist and history teacher? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nio Joe Lan. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Could you help me separate the article [[Kamehameha Statue]s] into a pre-06:39, August 16, 2012 version called Kamehameha Statues and the present mess into a separate article with the post-06:39, August 16, 2012 content called Kamehameha Statues (original cast)? I don't have the heart to revert User:Agupta72 since most of it is sourced so I think a link to them on a parent Kamehameha Statues article will suffice,--KAVEBEAR (talk) 06:02, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi, is there any chance I could be added to the DYK credit for Great North 10K? I did quite a lot of work on it. It doesn't really matter if it's not possible as it's in a queue at the moment. SagaciousPhil - Chat 06:06, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
Hi Crisco 1491. Would you be so kind as to move a copy of the deleted article to my sandbox or userspace? I would like to work on it. I would have copied it proactively, but I didn't think the deletion discussion was approaching consensus yet. I'm surprised a 126 year old hospital at the heart of a community can be so easily deleted, but perhaps I can find some better sourcing with a little effort. Thanks. Candleabracadabra (talk) 06:26, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
Just a thanks for your support and thoughtful comments over on Pskys page. I'm sorely tempted to start a protest movement (bowel-related pun intended) to encourage people to put random swear words into edit summaries -- only in a clearly NPA manner - to make a point. Except I suppose that would be too WP:POINT-y. We are livingin strange times. Montanabw(talk) 17:35, 8 July 2013 (UTC)
Crisco, the original hook for this article was objected to on a couple of grounds by one of the reviewers, which is where the ALT1 came from, and my suggested ALT1a which fixed some minor problems in the ALT1. Obviously, as I suggested ALT1a, I can't make the change myself to the promoted hook in Prep 4, which is why I'm dropping a note here. I should also mention that Ohconfucius came through and eliminated a couple of wikilinks in the main hook, but didn't bother carrying that through to either of the ALTs. I leave it to your judgment, should you use an ALT, as to whether those wikilinks should be retained or removed. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:23, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Greetings! I'm just curious as to your rationale for concluding the above AFD was a no-consensus. I know AfD isn't a vote count, but the only opinions expressed were delete votes (and, at the risk of tooting my own horn, I think they were both sound and policy-based). In any event, do you have any issue with me immediately re-nominating? It's horribly sourced and my own searching did little to convince me that there's any chance that will improve (particularly since I suspect the company is no longer operating). ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡbomb 21:45, 10 July 2013 (UTC)
I nominated Juan Antonio Yanes which isn't a self-nomination, for DYK, but there is a problem. Three of the sentences are not referenced and it seems like they are from the offline references, but I can't tell. Do you think that the best thing to do would be to remove those sentences if not verified with an online source or fixed by the creator? SL93 (talk) 02:30, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
Hey, Crisco! You seem to be a person of sense, so if you have a moment, maybe as an admin you could check and potentially change something? I've outlined the issue here [1]. There's no dissent, but nobody seems to be around, and that awkward hook is scheduled to appear on the Main Page soon. What do you think? Awien (talk) 12:39, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Hello Crisco1492, I was wondering if you would be interested on helping me expand an article (espically on the lead), it is the following: Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. I would like to it to become in FL in the future. The reason I approach you, I've seen lots of work that you have done and they are amazing! I would really appreciated it! Thanks in advance.

I was just about to ask a delegate for permission to start a new FAC when Garden Warbler attracted a fourth reviewer who is giving it a very thorough going over. The next one will actually be from your neck of the woods, since Pacific Swift is a far eastern species. It's not well studied, so it's quite short. Do you have anything up and running?
I think the edit this refers to is where I reverted his unexplained removal of referenced content. The problem (which i always think should be rather obvious) in accusing editors of bias, is leaving oneself open to similar accusations. The combination of the editor's comments on my page, and their contributions, suggests to me they think a pro-Dutch bias is OK but an (alleged) pro-Indonesian bias is not. It's not the first time I've been left wondering if a pro-Dutch bias is OK whereas a pro-Indonesian bias is not. ;-) --Merbabu (talk) 05:54, 12 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Crisco. About the 3RR - I thought it applied to reverting the same edit/ editor 3 times. I see now it is about any 3 reverts. Glad I found out in time - before getting myself in a spot. I do appreciate your gesture. As for civility, none of this would have happened had I been dealing with people genuinely dealing with the value of the information. But no, I was immediately broadsided by people with a long track record of deleting anything negative towards Flickr. That's not healthy for the WP. Two of these people tried their best to derail/ undo/ diminish the section on the controversy and managed to keep out most references to user discontent. I pointed this out in the present discussion, but one of the users in question deleted it twice. I would have thought it would be illegal to remove parts of an on-going debate - especially where it is merely calling on other editors to take into account the historical conduct of that editor on that same page. If I say eggs taste bad and you revert me, fair enough; but if I see that you have the habit of always deleting anything bad about eggs while always defending all that is good about them, then that goes to impartiality and ultimately to credibility. If I tell people to look up the proof and you delete that, it confirms that you don't want others to actually be alerted to your historical involvement with the subject. But surely then, a note should be left to the effect that parts of the discussion have been deleted - I don't know, I try to not get involved too much with policy (perhaps unfortunately). At any rate, I have crossed the cost/ benefit boundary (the time I have spent on Flickr) and if I am not going to be engaging with any serious editors (present company excluded, as you were not part of the whole saga) then there is no point spending another minute on this. But thanks for your contribution. Best regards, Rui ''Gabriel'' Correia (talk) 11:46, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

The Gimli Glider and Megawati Sukarnoputri coming up on the Main Page on the same day. It's a start! Awien (talk) 01:05, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
Crisco, I was wondering if you could take a look at this and decide whether the nomination can continue or not. Two articles were started a couple of days apart about a man who was about to become an India Supreme Court justice, and the second was nominated the day it was created. (The second creator attempted to have the earlier yet less robust article merged into the newer one, but was rebuffed. Then the contents of the two were combined by a copy of text from the newer into the older, and the older changed to a redirect. (The histories were not merged.)
I've explained what I've been able to find out there: Gfosankar's June 29 article had 605 prose characters prior to Uncletomwood's (the nominator) July 1 article being turned into a redirect and text from it being copied on July 2 into Gfosankar's, making the new total prose 1472 characters. So, is the nomination dead because the nominated article didn't survive, or does the nomination embrace the new combined article and proceed forward, only with some additional DYKmake templates? Please register your opinion/ruling on the template. Many thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 07:04, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

What do you think of this article? It was tagged for deletion, which is how I came to it. I redirected it to Lü Buwei. That didn't last; the creator undid my redirect. I don't want to get into an extended discussion about it, particularly because my knowledge of these sorts of topics borders on nil and because I don't know anything about the reliability of the two cited books. My instinct is that the article is a piece of crap, but I'm not sure I would be in a majority on that view as we have so many editors who believe that this sort of historical data is notable.

Dear Crisco 1492,
I apologize for the inconvenience, but have no other way than appealing for administrators’ help recover a deleted article.
I published a film article entitled Drits (Derivas), a film by Portuguese director Ricardo Costa. It is the second film from an autobiographic trilogy, Faraways. The article was kept untouched by several months. To my surprise, it was recently eliminated and redirected to the director’s page with no discussion. I undid the redirection, but saw the article was proposed to deletion. Reason: independent, verifiable, secondary resources. I argued that the article couldn’t have but primary sources (the producer’s ones) as it is an upcoming film, like many others listed at upcoming films. A film that has not yet been premiered or distributed may not be commented. Besides, none of the films so listed has ever been deleted or even contested.
At last, in discussion, user User:reddogsix proposed that the article should be renamed to Drifts (film) or similar, and at the same time put at the disambiguation page of Dritf this reference «Drifs, unreleased film by Ricardo Costa (filmmaker). I created a new page for the same article entitled Drifts (Portuguese film). As the semantic root “drift” seemed to be the problem, I replaced the article name to Derivas (Drifts) and published it once more with some improvements. As a result, the article was fast deleted and I blocked for three days.
In the meantime, a new article about the trilogy was published: Faraways, which was proposed to fast deletion as well by the same user, User:reddogsix.
Although unreleased, although having no reliable secondary sources, Drifts is unquestionably an outstanding film for its uniqueness and characteristics: autobiography, comedy, docufiction, metafiction in one. I guess that “outstanding” may be a synonym for “notable” in such cases and that articles like this shouldn’t be deleted without previous cared analyses: important information may be lost.
This sequence of interventions is clearly a personal attack by User:reddogsix, supported by two or three user friend. It has no other explanation. It contributes in nothing to improve articles quality. Mists article, which I created on 10 September 2010, is the latest example. The article structure was unreasonably modified, loosing clarity and useful content.
NOTE: sent to 30 administrators.

Hi, You might be totally sick of looking at FACs on Australian military aircraft ...but in case not, I'd appreciate it if you could post a review at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Boeing C-17 Globemaster III in Australian service/archive1. Please do feel free to tell me that the article isn't up to scratch if that's your view after reading it. Regards, Nick-D (talk) 10:10, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi. Can you offer your opinion regarding the Infobox photo discussion here? Thanks. Nightscream (talk) 19:26, 28 July 2013 (UTC)
I'm relatively sanguine about the likely impact of GAs in the DYK slot, though I've opposed the idea as badly thought-out. The fundamental constraint, it seems to me, will be the willingness of people to invest the time in doing thorough reviews of GA content. Because GAs are usually far longer than DYKs, that will put a heavier burden on the reviewer and is likely to take longer. I certainly don't intend to do such reviews myself. I suspect that we will end up with a long backlog of unreviewed GA nominations and the whole exercise will be abandoned as a failure after six months, just like TAFI.

![]() | On 29 July 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Dale D. Myers, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Dale D.

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 23:53, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

Well! If you can see, he was the one who started edit war. Also, his post always tagets me. He has always ineruppted in the discussion taunting me. He always talks irrelevant to the topic. I was begging to stop it butr, he didnt. When Theopolisme came to warn him, then he listened. He was constantly haerassing me. Also, I have lot of work to do - An open PR, A GAC and some articles to work on and I dont have time for all this. Thanks for your gesture.

Hi Crisco, could you help me assess the haze article to see how its path to GA/FA is going? You will probably notice that tag on top. Could you help me to fix the issue? I'm quite busy now, and only have fixed a bit, so I may need your help. Anyway, other than grammar fixes, could you not edit the article. Not that I don't trust you, but I'm just afraid that things may get messy. Just place the suggestions on the same thread on talk page. Thanks. ✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎ 15:54, 2 August 2013 (UTC)

Since you are aware of Prashant's behaviour on Wikipedia, can anything be done about the repeated attacks directed against me here and here? Frankly, I am tired of responding to the millions of threats that have been directed against me, and feel that editing here is a colossal waste of time when such comments are directed towards my work. --smarojit HD 18:44, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
Per my final comment on this page: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/The_Office_Bistro, please provide a copy of the article so I can finish it up in the coming weeks.

Hey! crisco. Well, that user is playing very safe as I'm the only one who knows his wise tricks to get someone down and do what his mind want. I dont even cross his path. But, when I saw an edit at Ranbir Kapoor, It was like favouratism as he mentioned Anjaana Anjaani as an underperformer at the box-office which is actually an above average grosser. That's why he thought to tak revenge but, im ready to resolve everything as i believe in neutrality. I want to let you know, If you see Rani Mukerji's FAC, you'll find that he had actually mentioned an average grosser as a hit which Bollyjeff noticed and then, he changed. In, several articles in which he is he main contributor uses same technique to praise them to extremes. Tell, the guy who mentions an average grosser as a hit Can question others? That's why i asked him to change his other articles which he has broken all neutality in terms of critical and commercial success. —Prashant 02:35, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
What what???? Chopra articles has been edited by me and was questioned along with Fashion. I'm just solving your question. Did you see crisco, his wise tricks? First he questions an article and then says not to talk directly? So, who will resolve this issue.—Prashant 04:20, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Yes, but he is behaving like this. That's why. He says lets use the verdict by BOI and then He says BOI reports wrong about a film Kites. If he can't follow his words. How he get to know that Kites was a flop as BOI says it was a hit and highest grosser. Ask him. He is reflecting through his own words.—Prashant 04:35, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Okay Kites is a Flop. But Anjaana Anjaani is described as above average grosser. But, still you mentioned underperformer for it. How did you know that was underperformer. Because it shows your favouratism and this is not an attack as some rules of wikipedia gives rights to questions BIASNESS and NEUTRALITY.—Prashant 04:51, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
You reverted me two times before changing it. And for the rest of articles Neutrality is the main reason.—Prashant 05:04, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
I see your efforts to get on proved fruitless, I must say though that I'm not surprised, because Prashant has a habit of saying and doing things which irk people off....♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 13:50, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for your message on my talk page. I'm surprised, however, that you haven't left a similar message on User:Dr. Blofeld's talk page, given that he has called ThePromenader and I "disgruntled editors from the wiki Jurassic period" ([5]), on Jimbo Wales' talk page no less. Also considering that he told ThePromenader that he was "a danger to society" ([6]), and that he referred to "that sour Canadian tongue of yours" ([7]). Civility has to work both ways. Der Statistiker (talk) 13:12, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
That isn't an irrelevant personal attack which pokes fun at the work of others now is it. I've met my fair share of nasty people on wikipedia but hands down Der Statistiker you're the most consistently obnoxious I've ever come across. I'm yet to see you say a good word about anybody or anything. Your sort are damaging to the community who do frankly nothing here for 5 years and then turn up to cause trouble and attack decent editors...♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 16:27, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello! This is a note to let the main editors of the article Citra Award for Best Leading Actress know that it will be appearing as the main page featured list on August 19, 2013. You can view the TFL blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured list/August 19, 2013. If you think it is necessary to change the main date, you can request it with the featured list directors The Rambling Man (talk · contribs), Dabomb87 (talk · contribs) or Giants2008 (talk · contribs), or at Wikipedia talk:Today's featured list. If the previous blurb needs tweaking, you might change it—following the instructions of the suggested formatting. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. Thanks! Tbhotch.™ Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 21:04, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
The Citra Award for Best Leading Actress is an Indonesian film award given at the Indonesian Film Festival to actresses for their achievements in lead roles. This award was first given in 1955 to two actresses from competing studios: Fifi Young of Persari and Dhalia of Perfini. Initially given sporadically, this Citra Award has been granted annually since 1973, although a decline in the Indonesian film industry meant no awards were given between 1993 and 2003. The actress with the most wins to date is Christine Hakim (pictured), with six; she has cited her win in Teguh Karya's Cinta Pertama as convincing her to pursue a career in acting. Dian Sastrowardoyo became the first actress with multiple nominations in a single year, earning a win for Ada Apa dengan Cinta? and a nomination for Pasir Berbisik in 2004. The current holder is Acha Septriasa, who won the prize for the film Test Pack: You're My Baby.

An editor that disagrees with my edits has accused me of having a non-disclosed COI here and included in his note my prior username, which was changed in order to avoid disclosing personally identifiable information. I absolutely don't want the PR guy at SmartScore, who I've lectured extensively on the Talk page, being able to find out who I am. Do you know what - if anything - can be done to protect my personally identifiable information?

The fact was ... that fifty-year-old band the Bintangs have been described as "the most underrated live band from the Netherlands"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bintangs. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Just a few more days to go till Hong Kong! I'm pretty excited to finally meet you in person :)
So, I got roped into giving a bunch of talks, but the one you might be interested in is the Flow/Wikipedia discussions roundtable on Saturday afternoon. I'm still trying to figure out how to structure the conversation, but what I'd like to do is outline all the different kinds of discussions that happen on English Wikipedia, get an alternate perspective from folks who are active on other wikis, and talk about ways we can improve different discussion spaces with software. You may have already heard some rumblings about Flow; I'm the product manager on the Flow team, so I'm trying to push the conversation beyond just people freaking out that the Evil WMF(tm) is going to ruin user talk pages or whatever.
Anyway, one thing I'm definitely interested in for this roundtable is touching on good & featured content nomination processes – what's working, what's not, what can be improved with software tools. It would be great to have you present for that! Accedietalk to me 22:36, 4 August 2013 (UTC)
