North Star Academy

[edit]

Hi! I merged North Star Academy into Redwood City School District as is the common practice with elementary schools. WhisperToMe (talk) 17:10, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

That works for me, thanks. Jeanjung212 (talk) 18:02, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Photo requests

[edit]

BTW do you do photo requests in San Mateo County? There are places which haven't yet had pictures put on Wikipedia. WhisperToMe (talk) 11:17, 30 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I can attempt to do some, currently I've been focusing around Redwood City to bring up the standards of the articles. Jeanjung212 (talk) 18:13, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please change the photo of Shah Rukh Khan on Wikipedia.. Gypsy soul (talk) 14:20, 25 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Gypsy soul: I would suggest finding an image that's been uploaded to commons already that qualifies under fair use, Commons:Category:Shahrukh Khan and then asking on the Talk:Shah Rukh Khan page for consensus on the change. Looking through the archives of the talk page it appears that multiple attemps to change the image before have failed as the images were not fair use often.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Pacific Shores Center, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Alameda. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

[edit]

...for this. How refreshing to get this kind of response on a contentious topic such as this. I apologise for sounding a little grouchy, but if you go through the various archives to do with infoboxless articles, you'll see that this is a pretty emotive subject. Next to a cure for the common cold, this is as unsolvable as it is troublesome. CassiantoTalk 20:15, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to you for taking the time to inform me. The more time I spend on wikipedia the more I learn how nuanced the style and community is everyday. No worries about being a little grouchy, it's understandable when facing a continuous tide of people that don't initially understand a view and then instead of attempting to learn become combative. I'll be on the lookout for more reading and research in the future now that you turned me onto more of the resources. Jeanjung212 (talk) 20:52, 28 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Kappa-dera Temple

[edit]

On 7 December 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Kappa-dera Temple, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that offerings of cucumber (pictured) are left at the Kappa-dera Temple to appease Kappas? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Kappa-dera Temple. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Kappa-dera Temple), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.

cleanup gnome

Thank you for quality articles such as The Room (film) and Kappa-dera, for improving articles about the San Francisco Bay Area and Redwood City, for gnomish fixes of links, urls, it's vs. its, adding for wikidata, adding date templates (among others), for images, - Jean, you are an awesome Wikipedian!

--Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:23, 23 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Two years ago, you were recipient no. 1933 of Precious, a prize of QAI! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:47, 23 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Gerda Arendt It's actually meant alot as a gnome over the years to be able to look back on that. I'm sure it must have felt at the time like I was tailing your DYK articles alot too. There's been no gnome stuff for me to do on your DYK for awhile since you're so thorough! Even though I've been more active lately on the wikidata side of things than the article space it's good. So thank you! -Jeanjung212 (talk) 07:25, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Once precious, always precious ;) - I have to confess that in today's pictured DYK, I misspelled the subjects name several times, which a gnome noticed only yesterday ... - I proudly carry the icon - as the only topicon - in memory of a great missed gnome with a short career.

Further Reading?

[edit]

Please let me understand why you replace External links by Further Reading. An entry by the German National Library is not really "reading", nor another lexikon entry. Make two groups, perhaps? Further reading? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:00, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Gerda Arendt I felt moving them to a Further Reading section would be preferrable to complete removal if following the standards of Wikipedia:External links and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Linking. Otherwise based on those standards as well as WP:NOTRSMUSIC several of the external links in the section would be removed completely. Jeanjung212 (talk) 16:20, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Please tell me more, - so far I thought External links is the place for such things, not used as sources, but informative otherwise. Please give two examples and say what problem? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 17:36, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
For example the link to discogs would be removed per WP:ELBLP as WP:NOTRSMUSIC as it is not reliable and BLP articles are held to a higher standard. Another example is the overlink of foreign language material while English wikipedia has a strong preference for English external links per WP:NONENGEL. In particular with the Hilbert link which does not provide information not already covered in the other references and links in the article. The simplest way to keep the Hilbert link in the article would be to use it as a citation instead of having it within the External Links section. The large number of foreign language links in the reason I moved the other interview links to the Further Reading section as well. Another example I would remove from External Links is the German National Library link as it is already present in Authority Control template following WP:LINKSTOAVOID. If you disagree with my interpretation of the standards and want to move the links all back into the External Links section and keep them all, I'm okay with that. I just wanted to take the time to explain my thoughts on this because you took the time to ask and I generally enjoy editing the articles I see you involved in. Thanks Jeanjung212 (talk) 19:07, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for explaining. I won't revert (just perhaps say "reading" instead of "Reading"). I only try to understand. You are the second to say something against Discogs, so I won't use it again. They are better than WorldCat in detail, but sowhat. Hilbert is her agent, so never ever would I use that for reference. I didn't read it all, so couldn't tell if they offered more than other references or not, - it's just standard for opera singers to have the agent, especially when s/he has no official website. The German National Library link is another standard feature because go around and ask what authority provides? Most people seem not to know what the abbreviations mean, and ignore the whole lot of information. - Summary: I usually "park" in external links what is not good enough for reference, but still informative, so the standards for RS don't count. Always learning, and thank you again! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:17, 22 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wikidata

[edit]

Hey, I've undone some of your contributions to The Haunted Island because I'm not so sure about the reliability of Wikidata for article content. It's probably just better to use the local information instead. TheAwesomeHwyh 19:34, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

TheAwesomeHwyh Wikidata uses the same sources as the article so not sure why the reliability of it would come into question, not only that but the Infobox video game template is designed with the intent to use Wikidata for any field not manually entered into the box itself. Your revert also removed the addition of information including the exact release date and the external link to mobygames that many video games articles have. You're the main editor of the article so whatever way you want it in the end is fine with me. The main content I wanted to add in which was the reviews template is still there. Jeanjung212 (talk) 19:56, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Jeanjung212 It doesn't look like the Wikidata template actually shows it's sources- you have to click through to Wikidata in order to see what sources are being cited. If I'm not wrong, I think there was a controversy regarding using Wikidata in a similar manner to this a while back. Let me try to find those threads. TheAwesomeHwyh 20:23, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Jeanjung212 Here it is:
TheAwesomeHwyh It's all good, I know there's tension between wikidata and wikipedia sometimes, even though to me it's all the same wonderful thing. I do edits and watch pages on both and enjoy both and. That's why I choose not to really push for anything on articles and if the major contributors want something a certain way, best to just go with the flow since there's always other pages to edit and work on.Jeanjung212 (talk) 20:31, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, to be fair, I think I might support migrating more infoboxes to Wikidata if the information at Wikidata only showed up on Wikipedia if it has a source on Wikidata- a lot of things on Wikidata aren't sourced and that's a pretty big problem for me. Maybe I should start contributing over there more? TheAwesomeHwyh 20:38, 26 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Hiroshi Nagahama, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Japanese (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello!

Is there a way to add those to the list without breaking the page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C50:7F:7121:AC5F:D9AE:E8A8:70D7 (talk) 14:59, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

To not break the page you need to ensure when you delete comment code that you remove both the start AND end portions of the comment code, otherwise the page is not parsed correctly. However, also to not have your edits reverted, you'll need to add sources to those sections as the comments state. --Jeanjung212 (talk) 15:08, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

[edit]

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

Thank you!

Can you fix the template? Or find someone who can? It shouldnt generate categories which dont exist. Rathfelder (talk) 16:15, 2 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Rathfelder I don't have Template Editor permissions, so I can't change the template. As far as I can tell it seems the users who created and maintain the template are aware of this functionality and even include a section about it on the documentation page, so I doubt they will change it.

Orphaned non-free image File:Workboard logo.png

[edit]
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Workboard logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 03:00, 24 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Workboard has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Promotional article - basically a press release. No references. This is the less-puffed-up version, see here for the really puffed-up version. Despite the grandiose claims, there is no evidence of notability under WP:CORP, WP:GNG or any other guideline; a WP:BEFORE shows zero beyond press releases and occasional passing mentions. Should have been G11'd at creation.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. David Gerard (talk) 18:55, 29 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@David Gerard: It seems to me like people that work at Workboard have been editing the article with the IP addresses and an account called WorkBoard itself doing several revisions to the article. This article used to actually have references as can be seen in this old revision here. I think this revision would most likely be the best to revert to as it is pre the fluff the WorkBoard account added and after user Mean as Custard revised the article to correct for fluff the IP addresses added. Jeanjung212 (talk) 05:20, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Trouble is, that version doesn't have any RSes either - the Forbes and HuffPost are both contributor blogs, neither is the RS news outlet ... do you know of any RS coverage of Workboard? - David Gerard (talk) 15:37, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@David Gerard: I was able to locate coverage by VentureBeat, TechCrunch, GeekWire, ABC7News. I searched on the Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard archives and it seems to me that these would be fine to use. Jeanjung212 (talk) 19:24, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
excellent! yeah, feel free to WP:TNT the press-release version and rewrite from the good sources :-) always nice when an article turns out to be saveable - David Gerard (talk) 21:10, 30 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
