RE: History of communism and miscellaneous

Regarding this, it was really helpful, thank you so much. I just do not think I can do it myself, especially on such a controversial article and subject and I would need some draft, guidelines, suggested sources and help from users such as you and The Four Deuces, who are one of the best users on reading our policies and guidelines, and actually following the literature, which often times is not the case. But I consider this a challenge and a big one at improving myself. "I intended to write more articles over my break (except on topics I've already researched) but I've been doing more replying lately ;)." I would love to help and hear more about this. :)

Might be worth asking TFD if they's interested in collaborating, hm? Considering the overlap in topical interest czar 04:04, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposal and ideas for Wikipedia

As for the last part about Wikipedia, that makes sense and I agree. I wish, however, there were different versions of the same articles and articles that have not got neither Good article nor Featured article status should be considered as draft and be "the official version" only once they obtain the Good article status. Ideally, the Good article and Featured article status should be a summary of the topic and not be overtly detailed but I would not mind if there was a tag alongside Read that read "(See) other versions" or something. There could be different types of version such as the aforementioned more detailed version, an academic-style version, a first-person version, a throw-any-reliable-sources-about-the-topic-without-following-literature version, a translated-other-wiki version, etc. I think it would be fun or interesting to write, say, Socialism article from the perspective of socialists or from liberals, and so on, civilisation from an indigenous POV, or an article of war from a single POV, another from the other POV, and so on.

Hell, there could be a version of any article from any Wikipedian, or a version of any article from any Wikipedian where original research and synthesis are lifted while only verifiability is necessary. In a way, we already do that through drafts and sandbox but I wish there was a way where they could be stored together or something, or the aforementioned "See other versions" bottom. As long as it is clear the difference (i.e. which policies and guidelines still applies, which ones do not, etc.; from what POV is written; and that it is clearly indented to reflect that POV rather than "truth" or our policies and guidelines, which must be respected to gain the Good article and Featured article status, as only the latter would be the official and "first page" version). While these latter ideas are more "fun" or "interesting" than "useful", so one counter-argument could be that it is "counter-productive", I think the idea of making any non-Good article status article a constantly work-in-progress draft, or even dividing a "summary" and "more detailed" version of the same article, would be helpful and useful in eventually helping achieve these two versions, making easier to gain the Good article and/or Featured article status. In short, there would be the "official" Wiki-encyclopedia where the goal would be to create as many Good and Featured articles; and then there would be the "free" Wiki-encyclopedia where the goal would be to create as much free knowledge and perspectives as possible, with the main policy and guideline being verifiability and attribution.

One issue could be the servers, as that could be "too much", but I like to think big and be optimistic someday it will really be possible to have all knowledge and perspectives, properly attributed and verified here. Are these just crazy and nonsensical ideas? Good but too much, too ambitious, too hard? More like "Eh"?

Can always dream I suppose :) but that will never be Wikipedia, not by technical restriction but because that's not what we're here to do. NPOV is a core principle of WP—just as central as verifiability/attribution—so POV splits would be a totally different project. Others have tried some of those ideas. Citizendium is moribund but tried the "only official/approved" content route. The POV-laden RationalWiki and Conservapedia have their own storied histories and reflect the fuzziness of moderation and quality control when NPOV is dropped as a core community principle. GA/FA has little to do with our policies since all articles need to meet policy. GA is a minimum threshold for meeting basic standards and FA is for standout writing and research. It means little outside of the small bubble of Wikipedia editors. Knowing some of your interests, I get why you'd be into the idea, but it's basically an entirely different version of this project for an entirely different community and readership. I would just firmly distinguish your interest in that from your Wikipedia writing. Editing here should be less about philosophical debate and much more of the dry mechanics of "what did the source say/well, what does another source say?" This is why I (and I think most editors) avoid big, controversial topics. The effort/reward ratio isn't there for the difficulty of writing finely on controversial topics. czar 04:04, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Miscellaneous

Regarding pings, my bad about it. It happened a few times that users did not respond and I thought it was good manner to ping but you are right. I also understand if "it's not a discussion I'm looking to follow." However, could you please write a neutral RfC about the scope and your own suggestion you proposed? That would be a way forward.

I also wanted to add I think this comment of yours ("ML is a floating signifier. To this bleary-eyed, third-opinion reader, there is no single reducible definition that applies to all of the ways it's invoked. Our article appears to jumble these different meanings into an invented, contiguous whole.") is a perfect summary of the issues regarding the main topic and scope at Mass killings under communist regimes and its talk page, i.e. I am referring to scholars stating that "a connection between the events in Pol Pot's Cambodia and under the Stalin era are far from evident and that Pol Pot's study of Marxism in Paris is insufficient for connecting radical Soviet industrialism and the Khmer Rouge's murderous anti-urbanism under the same category" and "[w]hether all these cases, from Hungary to Afghanistan, have a single essence and thus deserve to be lumped together—just because they are labeled Marxist or communist—is a question the authors scarcely discuss." Davide King (talk) 18:32, 3 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sure—I'll post some draft RfC language re: scope

I honestly don't think that the talk page participants on those pages are going to be convinced by any additional rationales. I think the best option is to take a temperature read, use the RfC feature to bring in outside opinions (do not overwhelm them with text, and see how the cards fall. If there is no consensus or no clear path forward, I suggest walking away from it for a while. Even if it's wrong, it'll go on without you, which is a good thing. My recommendation is that you'll be happiest as a Wikipedian finding topics towards which you can contribute productively, building out sections and articles that have not been documented before. It's not worth spending your time deadlocked in contentious discussions that only make you frustrated and miserable when you could be offering something of greater value to the world on other articles. czar 04:04, 7 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Moynihan Train Hall

On 23 January 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Moynihan Train Hall, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that U.S. senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan proposed an expansion of New York Penn Station as a homage to the original station, where he had once shined shoes? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Moynihan Train Hall. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Moynihan Train Hall), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Robert Service move

I was just going to move Robert Service back to Robert Service (disambiguation) but I thought I'd talk about it here first. I believe "Robert Service" is the primary topic for Robert W Service. I'm not sure why you say otherwise. I have books of his poetry that only say Robert Service... no "W" at all. I believe "Robert Service" should redirect to the poet, and if you still insist otherwise there should be an RfC on the move. Fyunck(click) (talk) 09:27, 30 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fresno Nightcrawler article

Hi, I've recently been working on creating a page on the topic of the Fresno Nightcrawler, which you can find at the top of my Sandbox. I noticed that a similar page was deleted in 2019 for failing WP:NFRINGE and having "dodgy citing", with examples of this included. I feel that there may now be sufficient coverage of the topic by reliable sources (including The Fresno Bee) to warrant an article, and was wondering what steps I would take to make this a reality. Thanks, -JJonahJackalope (talk) 20:00, 10 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For reference: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Fresno nightcrawler

Hi @JJonahJackalope, Fresno nightcrawler had more sources when it was deleted—it's more about the quality of the sources than the count. Based on the sources in Special:PermanentLink/1006684397#History_2, I'd wager that the sourcing is still insufficient, though you are welcome to reach out to participants in the last discussion. Grunge.com [1] and Ranker both look like content farms. We'd be looking for significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources. (?) If you were to recreate the article, it would likely go back to AfD based on the current sourcing. The alternative is to continue to incubate it in your sandbox or draftspace until better sourcing emerges. czar 22:48, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the response, I think at the current time I'm going to keep it in sandbox and wait until I can find better sources for it before publishing. Thanks, -JJonahJackalope (talk) 00:30, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure it should have been closed yet, besides the nominator mine is the only !vote. IMHO relisting would have been better. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 16:11, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Dodger67, are you requesting that it be relisted? Otherwise the arguments were sound and the relist procedure is to treat it as an expired PROD before relisting. czar 01:27, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiproject Video games Newsletter survey

Hello czar! I'm conducting a feature for the video games newsletter similar to that of a survey. I'm going to ask users their opinions on a specific matter and highlight unique and common answers to determine consensus on a subject. Your input would be very valuable, alongside others, to help answer this question.

The question is: How do you determine what makes a video game character notable enough for their own page? Do you follow pre-existing guidelines or have your own opinions on the matter?

Wikiproject Video games Newsletter survey – May 2021

I'm conducting another survey for the Wikiproject Video games Newsletter. If you could leave your thoughts on the matter it would be greatly appreciated. Every response will be compiled into a MOS-Esque answer that balances the thoughts of our top contributors. You're one of them! The question is as follows:

What would you consider the requirements of making a video game series article? What about franchise articles?

If you would like to respond, please ping me here and write your reply. I'll handle the rest. Thanks in advance, Panini!^🥪 14:49, 14 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Panini!, in my opinion, summary style is the most forgotten organizing principle of Wikipedia. Most "series" or franchise articles are really just a list of items in the series, which is a matter of list notability criteria. For an article, there are obviously sources for each item in the series, so what justifies a separate article? Everyone else is going to say the GNG, that there are significant coverage in multiple reliable, independent sources (?) that discuss the series as a whole or being more than a sum of its parts. My stance is that all of that stuff fits within the Legacy section of the first item in the series, if the rest of the series was borne of the original entry. Then we're back to summary style: That content only warrants a summary style split into its own article when there is an overabundance of qualified coverage that would threaten the proportion of the main article's coverage, i.e., wouldn't want the Legacy section to dwarf the Development section if it's not the most important intrinsic aspect of the article topic. The "three entries in a series" rule is completely arbitrary and not backed by formal consensus, whereas summary style and due weight are foundational to WP.

By the way, I imagine it'd be easier to aggregate these survey responses on a single page rather than copying across talk pages. czar 19:38, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Semen Hitler moved

Hello, Czar,

I don't think you saw my last comment on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Semen Hitler but an editor moved the page to Semyon Hitler so what you deleted was a redirect, not the article itself which you can now find at Semyon Hitler, complete with the AFD tag. I didn't think pages were supposed to be moved during deletion discussions so I questioned whether to move it back. But you closed the discussion soon after I commented. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 05:54, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I saw your comment and usually the XFD closer is better about deleting the true article target but there have been some bugs lately, so appreciate the heads up! It's preferable to move articles before/after the AFD but no prohibition on moving them during the discussion. czar 06:05, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the link about moving pages during a deletion discussion. It seems disruptive to me but then, but, you're right, the policy says it's not prohibited. Thanks for your work at AFD. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:13, 22 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The future of The Wikiproject Video Games Newsletters

Hey Czar! I would've emailed you about this, but since I'm on the Wikipedia app the "email this user" button doesn't work. I'll just keep stuff anonymous and say it here instead.

I haven't been getting responses from Thibbs this past week about questions I have about the Video Games Newsletter but I have gotten an email from him yesterday. He filled me in on what's happening in his life at the moment (he mentioned you are aware of what) and said he will be out for an indefinite amount of time. Due to the lack of participation in the Newsletter from GamerPro64 and the retirement from IAS that leaves just me on the Newsletter; I'm new to it, and have gotten Thibbs to help all this time, and with him gone, I have no idea what I'm doing! Hehe...

I'm gonna break this up into two pieces because I dont want to risk clicking the back arrow and losing this whole Ted Talk. More info in a second. Panini!^🥪 02:58, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I haven't seen you around at all but there's a reason why I'm telling you all of this. Here's an excerpt from his email to me:

"He (Czar) has expressed the view that the WP:VG Newsletter should be merged into the The Signpost as a special section. I know GP64 has worked with The Signpost too so he may be helpful if that seems to be the best course going forward."

And due to these events, I think this is the best course going forward. He explained how he has gone out before and the Newsletter next to collapsed because of it, and it left GamerPro doing it all by themself about 3 years ago. I think this will be a repeat of those events. And, since GP64 hasn't been active in the field I doubt they have any interest in having to do it by force.

I would really appreciate your help in this, because if it gets to the point where arrangements start getting made I will definetely need some help with it. I've only been here a year, after all. I still dont know what a sysop is!

Should I make a post about this on WTVG in hope to get more participants? In my view, I dont think so; I made a post on the unofficial Wikimedia Discord server to yield only one response, who agreed with the decision to bring it up to The Signpost. Should I pull the plug on the Newsletter for good this time and request the merge? Please please please help me out here. Panini!^🥪 03:06, 25 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya @Panini!, I think Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games/Newsletter/Archive 3#Segment within Signpost was the historical thread. The gist was to drop the quarterly stats components and focus on one single feature article every few months for the Signpost readership and potentially wider audience. I.e., if interviewing a WPVG member, make it relevant to all WP editors by asking about their craft of editing and major/common issues facing WPVG editors; if writing about the pitfalls of setting the GNG bar for fictional characters, extend it slightly beyond the bounds of WPVG and write for a Signpost audience.

On resuscitating the newsletter, I'm of two minds: (1) It's okay to let things die. An effort fizzling out is just a capacity issue finding its equilibrium with interest. I doubt the WPVG actual readership is very large. In general, most WikiProjects newsletters (if not WikiProjects themselves) are moribund. I'd argue that WikiProjects should all be converted to topical noticeboards but that's another discussion. (2) If you enjoy doing that sort of stat aggregation, go for it! It's not too much work to compile and send a mass talk page notice. It would be fine to ping the WPVG talk/noticeboard page for collaborative interest or even as fair warning that the newsletter's about to die off without explicit help—you might get a few bites, though doubtful based on prior interest. It wouldn't need to be merged anywhere right away—it's fine to let the page sit fallow for a while (there is no deadline).

But I would ask whether, at the end of the day, you'd rather spend several hours on aggregating the newsletter vs. making a serious dent in an encyclopedia article. After all, we're here for the latter. czar 06:54, 26 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Typequick DYK nom review request

Hi Czar, I hope you're doing well! I was wondering if you would be willing to contribute to Template:Did you know nominations/Typequick? Another user RoySmith has begun a review, but it isn't very thorough. I believe the article could use a second opinion fromm a WP:VG mainstay.

About your proposal to remove ethical egoism in WT:VA5

Actually Wikipedia:Vital_articles/Level/5/Philosophy_and_religion#Approaches_(21_articles) should be changed to Wikipedia:Vital_articles/Level/5/Philosophy_and_religion#Approaches_(22_articles), since the "approaches" sub-section in "ethics" section now contains 22 rather than 21 articles.--RekishiEJ (talk) 07:46, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

#Remove Ethical egoism

@RekishiEJ, thanks! If it's easier in the future, I think it'd be uncontroversial to make that minor correction directly, especially as VIT5 counts continue to fluctuate. czar 15:36, 28 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

What did the "it" in "If it's easier in the future" mean? I don't understand the meaning at all.--RekishiEJ (talk) 16:44, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@RekishiEJ, I mean that while I do appreciate the heads up, it would be faster/more direct to simply make the minor, uncontroversial correction in my original edit instead of messaging me (or other editors like me in the future) to do so. czar 16:50, 29 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA Nomination of Paul Goodman

Thanks at AfD

Hey. Thanks for the kindly redirection on my too-frequent answers.

I do think that the "contested" articles that TFD and I wiki-fence over get better for the mutual (if not always collegial) investment on both our parts, nevertheless. However, I may still be "shell shocked" from previous, and continuing wiki-fencing with TFD. Again, I appreciate your caution to pause to let other editors have a chance to chime in.

(1) Last year ten months plus on the American Revolutionary War for American independence, with fighting ending at Siege of Yorktown pretty much, versus the 'real' worldwide French-Spanish-American war against Britain including the Siege of Gibraltar in Spain and the Second Mysore War in India.

(2) It took over two calendar years to get the United States of America article to include Puerto Ricans as US citizens in a continuing (sometimes daily) wiki-fencing with TFD. Despite US law, federal court rulings, citizen PR military service, three UN-supervised referenda, Congressional Delegate privileges office, appointing two military freshmen to Army, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard Academies, PR representation in National Republican and National Democratic Conventions ... But we still had to sort through all the UN committees, conferences and conventions chaired by Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, Cuba and Venezuela that contradicted the other internationally sourced evidence "on balance". Nothing denying PR citizenship in the US passes at the UN General Assembly, but there are so many reports from reliable sources that Puerto Ricans cannot be US citizens because of historical colonialism (sic), they each had to be vetted in context ... so it took some months to do that ... TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 07:16, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A technical question.

The previously published article on the 1778-1787 county, titled "Ohio County (Virginia)", on the NORTH BANK of the Ohio River, with adequate citations from reliable sources, is lost to public view by an automatic link to Ohio County, West Virginia on the SOUTH BANK of Ohio River.

- Created at the American Revolutionary War incursion north of the Ohio River by Virginia militia Major George Rogers Clark, the LOST county article had substantial French-Speaking settlements at Cahokia and Vincennes. These together with Revolution veteran settlement were ceded by Virginia to the Northwest Territory in 1787.

- Please help to recover and reinstate the information as a separate article. Or, if you can give me a lead for general guidance, I can launch off into the wiki-spheres and give the restoration a good ol' 'college try' on my own . . . TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 07:20, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @TheVirginiaHistorian, it looks like Ohio County, Virginia (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) has no prior edit history—it's always been a redirect. I see no edit history, deleted or not, at Ohio County (Virginia) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs). Is there prior text somewhere you were looking to restore? If you have multiple, reliable, independent sources to substantiate a standalone article on the Virginia county in specific, feel free to click that page's "edit" link and start building it over the redirect. I'm not as familiar with how the geographic features notability guideline works with historical entities but unless these two counties have nothing to do with each other, usually it suffices to cover a similar topic within another. Wikipedia talk:WikiProject United States might be able to offer advice as well. Happy editing! czar 10:10, 7 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

They have nothing to do with one another, and all of the information that was found at the previous Ohio County (Virginia) has been extinguished, such as the French settlement in Spanish Louisiana at St. Louis, providing militia units to support Virginia Major George Rogers Clark's capture of the French settlement at Vincennes in the American Revolutionary War, and their acceptance of Virginia governance with the persuasive assistance of the local Roman Catholic parish priests. TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 09:31, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I can't find any prior edits or logs at "Ohio County (Virginia)". Perhaps you are thinking of a different title or phrasing? In any event, you would want to build that potential article at either Ohio County, Virginia (over the redirect) or at Draft:Ohio County, Viriginia, which is a recommended draft area where you can build the article without risking deletion. But in order to find/restore the "extinguished" prior content, I would need more information on where it once was located. czar 19:42, 8 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, despite your published dictum above. I may have confounded an "Ohio County" north of the Ohio River read on a map long ago, versus the Illinois County, Virginia here at Wikipedia.

Mass killings under communist regimes (again)

I took a break from it and I would've hoped things would get better but they aren't. It's always the same stuff, the discussions go nowhere, etc. This is a good summary.

I don't trust the AfD or RfC process for this article because, despite Wikipedia clearly not being about voting, it boils down to that, because more users are just going to say "per sources" and our arguments for why they're engaging in original research, synthesis, and other policy violations, and sources don't support what they claim they do... they're just going to be ignored. I may have to go to the noticeboard for sources and go one by one whether each source support the article. If you can write a neutral AfD or RfC, go for it.

Even though I'm skeptical, that is the only solution. Thank you again for your time. Davide King (talk) 09:50, 11 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Reporting: Editing clashes with another user

Hello Czar. I am sending you this message as I am being targeted by a random user who is accusing me of vandalism and falsifying information on an article here on Wikipedia. The article is about the South Korean movie, Once Upon a Time in High School. This user is even threatened to report me to the admins to have my account or, at the very least, my editing privileges removed. Before I tell you my request on this issue, I need to tell you how it all happened. So I was browsing through different articles on Wikipedia and then I encountered the Once Upon a Time in High School article. Upon reading it, I noticed that the last paragraph of the movie's plot was incorrect as I have seen the movie multiple times before and the last paragraph of the plot did not match with the movie's. I initially was taken aback for a few moments until I eventually decided to change the article so that the last paragraph was more accurate and correct. This was my first time editing an article on Wikipedia so I took careful actions when doing it. I even took the time to re-watch the movie once more before finalizing it, making sure there wasn't any errors. A week later, another user, the one I am referring to, reverts it back and starts accusing me of vandalism and falsifying information of the article. I then responded to the other user on the user's talk page, clarifying that I wasn't falsifying information nor vandalizing anything and I even provided a link of the movie for the other user to view to back my statements, but I have not heard from the user since. From there, I went back and undid his/her revision of my revision. I gradually waited for the other user to respond to my reply, but the other user instead went back to undid my revision again of Once Upon a Time in High School and once again accuses me of vandalism. This time, I started to get irritated and think that this other user is disregarding what I have to say and believes that he/she has justification for his/her action. I even looked up the revision history of the article and it seems that this may or may not be the first time he/she has done this to the article. Soon after, I did once more revision to the article and this again clarify that I not vandalizing nor falsifying anything, but the user still reverts it back and threatens me that he/she will report me to the admins. This is when I started to get on edge and decided to take matters into my own hands and contact the admins myself. I took some time to look up how to report to the admins, came across your name, and decided to message you. As for my request, I would like for you to confront this user and probably consider having him/her removed or blocked. You can find the user using this link: http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Special:Contributions/2604:3D09:A580:3900:7558:734B:E6FB:64D4. When you go to the article and read the revision history, you can see a small conversation between me and the other user. For the link to the movie I used to back my statement, here it is: https://archive.org/details/once-upon-a-time-in-high-school. You may view the movie and the article side by side and decide who is correct. This is urgent as the more people vandalize and make innocents fall to their schemes, the more victims will fall into misinformation and disinformation. I have been a long time guest on Wikipedia and it hurts me to see someone drastically change an article, inputs false information, and then accuses others of falsifying information when it gets corrected. Thank you. Detective Stranger (talk) 21:38, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) I don't know what can be done about the other editor, whose IP changes. However, I've reverted the article to the correct ending per the film. Schazjmd (talk) 22:11, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Detective Stranger, first, welcome to Wikipedia and I'm sorry your first editing experience has gone this way. It looks like @Schazjmd has confirmed the plot detail (thank you!) and can help monitor the page for changes. Since any editing community is bound to have disagreements, we have a general practice for resolving disputes: Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle. The gist is that editors are encouraged to be bold in their edits, but when the edit is disputed (reverted), to discuss on the talk page (Talk:Once Upon a Time in High School) rather than reverting back and forth out of desperation, which is known as Wikipedia:Edit warring (and note that more than three reverts on a single page in 24 hours will result in an automatic block). If the talk page discussion does not have traction, there are plenty of ways to move forward, first by seeking a third party as you did on my talk page but also by asking a forum like WT:FILM or others suggested at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. There is no rush, so if your edit is reverted, remember that there is always time to discuss and restore the suggested text at some future point. Hope this helps and that you'll decide to edit some other film articles! :) czar 23:23, 28 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Czar. I have seen the recent changes to the article and I would like to show my appreciation to you for taking the time to read my issue regarding my recent experience here on Wikipedia and taking action. It really demonstrates how people like you genuinely care about your users, editors, the Wikipedia standards, and so on. My first editing experience may be rough, but I still look forward to future endeavors here on Wikipedia with you, @Schazjmd, and many others. Again, thank you.

Hi! Looks like something lost in the shuffle from User talk:Candleabracadabra/Native Hawaiian cuisine and, in any event, it's already covered in Talk:Native cuisine of Hawaii's templates so I've deleted it. Thanks for checking! czar 01:38, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm glad you know what to do with it. I'm coming across a lot of odd stuff. Apparently, when AFDs or PRODs are closed, the tools don't always delete article subpages, like archived talk pages and "To do" pages. Most everything showing up on the 1000+ page list is from after ~2014 so I guess before that, administrators relied more on manual deleting each page rather than deletion tools. I've also recently found that Twinkle will delete article redirects but not article redirect talk pages so maybe it's the same problem. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:52, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz, if it helps, it looks like I was using a tool for that in 2014—probably User:Mr.Z-man/closeAFD. If so, the good news is that was deprecated in 2017 and replaced with WP:XFDC, which is more robust. czar 02:06, 1 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help).
