Hello there. I've got a few template syntax issues over at Wikipedia:Featured portal candidates/Portal:Massachusetts that I could really use your help with. When you get a chance, could you head over there. Just search for your name, I've said I'd ask you for help at each one, so they shouldn't be hard to find. Thanks! Sven Manguard Wha? 04:21, 4 January 2013 (UTC)
Hmmm... I'm sure someone else asked Gimmetoo (talk · contribs) if his handy bot could do any more of this, but I don't know what the answer is. There's probably only a limited amount of streamlining that can be done under the current structure. I'm not sure, for example, that the closer ought to have to leave a congratulations message for the nominator (that doesn't happen at FAC, although admittedly they have a greater turnover of nominations). Nor am I sure that delisted portals need to be added to Goings On - do delisted FAs get mentioned there? I'm not sure. Beyond that, we'd need to think more radically. Do we need Wikipedia:Featured portal candidates/List? Checking "what links here", it's not widely used. Does anyone use, or need, Wikipedia:Portal/Directory? Portal:Featured content is in dire need of a cleanup - the random selection of past TFAs and TFPs (some of which will now be delisted) hasn't been updated since sometime in 2009, and the situation is much the same for the FL selection (which isn't based in any way on the TFL system...). So I'd be tempted to abandon Portal:Featured content/Portals as ((historical)) on the basis that only the FPo maintainers keep that part of P:FC up-to-date and why should you/we bother if nobody else does? Thoughts? BencherliteTalk 15:25, 29 January 2013 (UTC)
Hello, Cirt. This is a courtesy notice that the copy edit you requested for Beck v. Eiland-Hall at the Guild of Copy Editors requests page is now complete. All feedback welcome! Hope you're considering FAC. Miniapolis 22:28, 29 January 2013 (UTC) |
Hi Cirt, as an active delegate at WP:FPOC would you be willing to give a write up about your favourite new FPo of 2012, or the one you consider most representative of Wikipedians' work during the timeframe? Something like this maybe, but for portals. If you're interested, just reply here and I'll set some space aside. (Note: I am also asking OhanaUnited, because the more the merrier). I figured, since we've promoted four portals this week there's no time like the present! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 06:50, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
Okay that arrangement sounds great to me. — Cirt (talk) 14:54, 2 February 2013 (UTC)

We've had a bunch of portals promoted to Featured Portal quality in 2012 among a diverse group of subjects, including: Animation, Arts, Conservatism, Indonesia, History, Maryland Roads, and New England. So far in 2013, we've promoted portals Bollywood, Cheshire, Massachusetts, and Society. I've personally worked on two of these: Arts and Society, as part of the Main Page Featured Portal drive. This is an effort to improve all portals linked from the top-right navigation of the Main Page to Featured quality. We've only got two more portals left to improve all the way up to Featured status in this quality improvement drive, Geography and Technology; the former is almost there and the latter is coming along nicely. It's been fun helping out with the quality improvement process of portals in the past year. Hopefully it won't take too much longer to complete the Main Page Featured Portal drive, and that will serve as a good model for future contributors to portals.
The above are my comments for The Signpost, at Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2013-02-04/Featured content. — Cirt (talk) 00:23, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
OhanaUnited
Being a small project is a double-edged sword. On one hand, we rarely (if ever) have to deal with vandals and other wiki-drama. On the other hand, our target audience is not as much as some article pages and therefore portals are less frequently maintained even though the articles showcased in the portal may be more up to date. Often there is a lot of inertia from the community and we have less capital to work with when the total number of votes matter a lot in a discussion. Just over a year ago, there were a number of good ideas presented to increase the visibility of portals. Including Cirt's idea of improving the portals listed on the main page to featured status, most of the ideas presented have received strong support and implemented. The one idea, championed by myself, would involve changing the standard bullet points on the main page to diagrams that reflect the portal. Even though it has already been implemented in German Wikipedia's home page (where the idea of portal originated), the effort involved in getting this implemented in English Wikipedia would be far too much. At this point, we're aiming for more participants in the featured portals candidate process. OhanaUnitedTalk page 03:31, 3 February 2013 (UTC)
You blocked Edwardgug (talk · contribs). Why? That is his real name, which is hardly promotional. He was editing his bio Edward Guglielmino. --John Vandenberg (chat) 05:48, 3 February 2013 (UTC)

The Portal Barnstar is awarded to Wikipedians who have made significant contributions to topic portals. For your excellent work improving the portals linked from the main page. Although the picture for this should totally have the barnstar going into an orange hole on one side, and coming out of a blue hole on the other. However, I don't have time to draw that.

Portal:Geography is now up for portal peer review, the review page is at Wikipedia:Portal peer review/Geography/archive1. I've put a bit of effort into this as part of a featured portal drive related to portals linked from the top-right corner of the Main Page, and feedback would be appreciated prior to featured portal candidacy. Thank you for your time, — Cirt (talk) 21:00, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi, Cirt. The King and I has been nominated for FAC. I know that you have reviewed articles in the musical theatre area before. It would be great if you could take a look at the article and give comments at the FAC. Thanks for any time you could spare! -- Ssilvers (talk) 00:28, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
I've nominated Portal:Geography for featured portal candidacy, discussion is at Wikipedia:Featured portal candidates/Portal:Geography. Thank you for your time, — Cirt (talk) 21:25, 4 February 2013 (UTC)
The selection of articles for the selected articles at Portal:Technology is overwhelmingly computer and internet based. The rest of the portal is much more balanced, but that one section is very, very unbalanced. We need to fix it. Additionally, a lot of them aren't really even primarily technology related. I believe items 12, 22, 28, 33, 34, 35, 37, 41, 42, 43, and everything from 46 through 52 need replacing. I won't be able to do this until, at the earliest, the weekend. There's been a major update at Wikidata and I'm spending my (limited) internet time on that site for a while until everything is stabilized. Sven Manguard Wha? 04:02, 5 February 2013 (UTC)
Hi Cirt. I consulted the article entitled Mister World, and saw that she was eliminated. I tried another article, but was later eliminated because of the discussion of elimination. I am new to Wikipedia and did not know it. I tried asking for the reversal of removal, and replied that I had to get in touch with you directly, who brokered the deletion of the article. Would that elimination was reversed without the controversial items that caused the deletion. My idea is just making an outline, without giving many details. If there is any item that is controversial in the article, this may be corrected first before proposing elimination. This is important because it is one of the leading beauty contest that occur constantly, then it would make sense that this event had not post on Wikipedia. I hope you understand that.

Hi Cirt,
I'm writing to you to request the reinstatement of a page that was deleted some years ago - Structure101.
I do not need, or intend to use the original content.
I have been carefully studying the requirements for Article Creation on Wikipedia, and I intend to create an article that meets these standards.
I will write the article in my userspace before submitting it for review.
I appreciate your attention, and look forward to hearing from you soon
Regards Robgey

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Mister World. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brenhunk (talk • contribs)
I noticed that the lede is either too long or too detailed... or something. The upcoming 2013 hearing is not mentioned outside the lede paragrah, and it's been two years since you promoted this article as a Good Article. I was thinking of re-assessment, but I must discuss the article's current state with you first. --George Ho (talk) 16:38, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi Cirt. Most of the things you suggested in the Peer Review I implemented directly, being mostly fairly mundane and obvious edits, but I took a second run at the Reception section and posted on Talk. If you have a minute, I'd love your comment.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Jenna Rose is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jenna Rose (4th nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.
You had deleted the article after I nominated it to Afd the first time. It was recreated and survived two subsequent Afds (one which I nominated myself). I have nominated it a 4th time, and hope you might review or contribute to the discussion. Thanks Rogerthat94 (talk) 10:03, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi Cirt,
Thank you for contributing to the first She Has a Name FAC. Unfortunately, it failed, but the article then passed a GAN and I have nominated it for another FAC. If you would be willing to contribute to the second FAC here, your input would be greatly appreciated. I contact you specifically because you were the reviewer who most encouraged me to split off subarticles, which I did, and that act is undergoing scrutiny in the new FAC.

Al Wahab is in the news again.
His body ravaged and weakened by a 50-day hunger strike staged in protest at alleged mistreatment of Korans at Guantanamo jail, Abd al-Malik Abd al-Wahab has a message for his loved ones.

Hey there. Just noticed that Otto Julius Zobel and George Koval don't have portraits in their selected bio writeups.

Agreed, there doesn't seem to be anyone on the case. If we want to improve it, we could push to have it be A class, in preparation for FA status. That would basically involve a peer review with Square Enix Wikiproject. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 02:55, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
Cirt, I don't know how to send you a private message. I see you trying to be fair and supportive when others are not. I feel that I am before an audience that makes LGBT community work twice as hard to keep their materials on Wikipedia. In my opinion, it's a flawed system at best that skews towards a majority. However, you are (to me) the only ray of sunshine is all of this terrible experience.

Cirt, I've been discussing with Khazar 2 and just started a discussion with Cisco 1492 about seeing if we could request that Wikipedia devote some space on the front page on 3 May about world press freedom and journalism as that is the day set aside annually for World Press Freedom Day. We just started talking at User talk:Crisco 1492#Pembrita_Betawi. Do you know some article under your project that would fit in DYK or in the Featured Article slot?

On 12 April 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Neville Page, which you created or substantially expanded.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Neville Page. 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.

Greetings Portal Comrade!
Just a quick update on the two FPOCs I'm involved in.
Portal:Sports has it's first review in. I'd really appreciate it if you'd be willing to do the second review (so that I have some momentum going for it.)
I've been chipping away at that last section of Portal:Geography for a while now. Did some yesterday with my alt account. It takes surprisingly long to make everything the same size, and I really don't have much time to spend on Wikipedia as it is, but I am aiming to get it done late this month. 1 through 14 and 18 through 20 are the right size. 15 through 17 and 21 through 30 still need to be done, and then I'll cast a support vote for the portal.
Cheers, Sven Manguard Wha? 16:33, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
Thank you very much for your welcome message. Well, I am a French contributor since 2004, and I work sometimes with the English one. My English is not good enough to write directly in the main part of the English encyclopaedia, so I usually write remarks in discussions pages.

Well, Bruce Campbell decided to retire from the wiki, but not before removing the GA noms that she had started. At first I just renominated an X-Files episode (not only we both were in the project, but I edited that article as well). Then I decided to do a favor to her work and put all but two of her noms back - with my help, Crimewave, The College Dropout and Within the Woods have green shields on the top now. Now only The Evil Dead remains. (and if it's not too much trouble for you, a nom by me alone is pending because the reviewer still thinks there are prose issues, can you take a look?) igordebraga ≠ 14:43, 26 April 2013 (UTC)

I would be against it. This page already exists for 7 years and is quite often linked to. A lot of editors know what right you have to Free Speech on Wikipedia. :) The WikiProject however is only a few months old. I don't see a good reason why the WikiProject should suddenly have this name. A link to the wikiproject on the page, like there is now, should be sufficient.

Funnily enough I was an avid player of Birth of the Federation and I remember it quite well. Fortunately it should just be young enough that information on it will be backed up in archive.org, so it should just be a case of digging it out of there. I'm certainly happy to give it a go, although it's likely that I won't be starting any new GA-type projects until after I get back from holiday in two weeks. Although a bit of variety sure is tempting, and the reception section should be fairly easy to add - the one at Star Trek: The Next Generation: Klingon Honor Guard didn't take too long at all. I'll see what I can do. Miyagawa (talk) 07:37, 28 April 2013 (UTC)
Hmm, no idea actually. I assume you tried the usual stuff, talk banner templates (how much I miss red talk pages when there is no actual discussion :), advertising and the like? I am not really a wikiproject person so can't really help you there. The other relevant WikiProjects perhaps? Like WikiProject law. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Garion96 (talk • contribs)

Hi Cirt,
I have renominated 2012 tour of She Has a Name for featured article status here. Considering that you were the GAN reviewer, I thought that I would inform you of the discussion. Any constructive comments you are willing to provide there would be greatly appreciated.

You removed a few instructions from the closing steps per inputs from 2 others.[1] I think we should have kept 2 steps involving maintenance on Portal:Contents/Portals and Wikipedia:Portal/Directory.

Thanks for your messages, Cirt. I've spent none of my limited WP time in portal land recently, so cannot remember precisely what the issues were or which steps I suggested cutting or why.

Please do not revert edits without analysing properly whether they are constructive or not. You may have been edit warring with Defender miz; he may be a sockpuppet (no idea on that); he may have disrupted the style of a featured list (not everybody is aware of all FL discussions); he may have shown or does show some poor editing from time to time; but all that does not mean that you can revert a page to its state before he made any edits [3][4]. By that one, not only did you revert three other persons' edits, but also removed valuable additions to the article (which, unlike awards lists, is intrinsically incomplete). Five of the releases he added have they own articles (and do not necessitate references in a list - although, yes, they should be added if we aim for feature quality; but it is unattainable in this case...); the one that did not have an article, he referenced; and some other fixes he also did properly. At least he knows wiki markup, unlike all those IPs... And anticipating any questions, I am not a sockpuppet of anybody. YLSS (talk) 21:02, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi Cirt! Long time no talk.

As you probably know, award-winners are usually better handled in lists where they can be ordered properly and include information about how and why they won the award; see WP:OCAT#Award. I'm posting the official notice below. --Lquilter (talk) 13:35, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for your support of my RfA. It didn't succeed this time, but that's no reason not to have some nice pierogi. Cheers, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 14:20, 3 May 2013 (UTC) |

Haha, glad that caught on a bit! I, for one, think there should be mandatory quid-pro-quo reviews for FAC, but that's just my opinion. :) --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:15, 5 May 2013 (UTC)
