(1) Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Macromolecular assembly. Rejection of stub article for want of formatting: if I take an hour of professional time to draft an article that is (a) absent in any form at present, and (b) better in substance and more referenced than many chemistry stubs -- in order to create a context for other wiki material already appearing -- why is it pro forma rejected for lack of section formatting (with no substantive content issues raised)? I do what I do best. Cannot an imperfect stub vis-a-vis formatting go forward, for others then to improve?
(2) Article on Marco Rubio. Here I was disturbed by what appeared to be bias in the section on personal life: limited description of his spouse (omitting hispanic heritage, listing only a single occupational aspect, cheerleader), and, further, omission of his office's formal response to a news report he had "embellished" his parents immigration story.
I edited these two sections to add content from referenced sources, in particular, drawing the balance from the same Washington Post story that provided the negative content.
The edit was reverted as being "over the top" (?!?), without a further substantive word (no talk). I reverted it back, for want of substance to the initial reversion.
It appears the the reverting individual has bias in this issue (as judged by my more recent discovery of a talk debate over the presentation of the immigration history issue, between him and a additional seemingly biased individual on the other side of the question.
Since my edit was (i) fact-based, adding references in both Rubio-positive (spouse representation) and -negative (immigration history) directions, (ii) uses the same source as the original version (the WP article) to balance the section on the immigration controversy, (iii) adds the detail that the WP report led to revision of the Senator's web pages on the matter (a possibly perceived negative), alongside his counter-explanation to the charge of embellishment (a possibly perceived positive) -- I ask that my edit be allowed to stand, or that the matter be elevated as appropriate (so that the back and forth on this section ceases).
(3) Fyi, recent work done on Burgi-Dunitz and Flippin-Lodge articles is substantially mine.
That I have to write such things as 1 and 2 here, and waste both of our time, has as opportunity cost other content not being written, and continues to fuel my speculation that this commitment to this organization is a waste of time.
Please see this talk, from me. Appreciate intervention/guidance. This is last straw for this subject expert.

Jen, just saw the header indicating your busy summer. Apologies for tossing this in. If you can pass it on to someone in your network, great. If not, we will just have to make do while an Alaskan Harvard-trained lawyer gets bar'd, moves, and weds. Cheers, Prof D. Meduban ( talk) 21:40, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
I see you are busy. If you have tme though could you bot upload these stunning images?♦ Dr. Blofeld 09:18, 21 July 2012 (UTC)
Jen when time permits, please see relevant talk entries related to my "macromolecular assemblies" article, discussing credentials, badgering, walkers versus talkers, etc. Perhaps, if you have time for one thing, you can find someone seniorin wikipedia to whom this process concern can be elevated. (If discussion dies this time, I'm gone.) This said to you because of your apparent accomplishment (since you will understand what the demands of the non-wiki world are like), and because you're experiencing, in this summer, the juggling and demands of life that will be more or less normal for the rest of it -- where time demands of other major, future "projects" will replace the current timeline and milestones of getting hitched! Bottom line here, life is too short for work-related commitments that do not bear proportionate fruit (which is what wiki currently is for me). If too arduous, they impinge, overly, on other truly important things. If I can ascertain with someone senior at wiki, Y/N, if there is any long-term hope for changes in process that might lead to higher quality quality scientific content, it will help me to my necessary decision-point. Cheers, and best wishes for the bar and the big event.

Hi, can you find me an image of this with prisoners eating in it or something in whatever state archives you can think of. As a state institution there must be PD gov photos of it. Is this PD or not, its of the Alcatraz Library.♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:33, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

See pages 10-32 here. There's tons of PD photographs I need for Alcatraz Citadel. Can you indicate where I can access them or help upload them somehow?♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:17, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Also I wondered if you could access national archives or whatever which might list all of the prisoners ever held at Alcatraz. I would be good for rooting out missing notable criminals, not to to mention being a valuable record on here. I was right, list here in the National Archives. This though is more valuable as it lists the inmates in order of arrival and details on their crimes and when they got out. Can you do me a favour and try to compile a resourceful table in excel or something which would list them both in order of arrival and in alpha order in sortable tables or something and create List of inmates of Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary ? I've started Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary also today and it would be a useful link in the notable inmates section to have a full list. Also if you can find any more free images of its time as a penitentiary this would be much appreciated! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:49, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

The urban portion of Varanasi District had an infant mortality rate of 70 per 1,000 live births as of 2010-2011. [1]
Saw your post on "ban Gibraltar DYKs for 1 year". So you'd oppose it if I expanded Algeciras from User:Gibmetal77/sandbox/Algeciras fully translating and sourcing it to a high quality articles and nom it for DYK. You'd say it is right to block it even though the work that had gone into it was done for free for a good purpose. It falls within Gibraltarpedia territory...♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 19:48, 27 October 2012 (UTC)
Algeciras is within Gibraltarpedia's territory though and would arguably one of the most important articles, commercially! Thanks for starting the cleanup of Varanasi, I'll start compiling a further reading section later which might help for gathering sources later.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 08:36, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
Lihaas has practically reverted everything on Varanasi, I'd revert back, a lot of the poorly written.sourced stuff has returned.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 15:12, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
Dunno, I have a rather dubious relationship with some of the WP:India members right now after I said its extremely unlikely a native will come along and write a decent sourced article. Have you seen my proposal on on Village pump proposals, that's what started it., a disgust of the state of average Pakistan and India articles. I'd be willing to put the effort into Varanasi but I suspect it'll be reverted. I've put your version in User:Calliopejen1/Varanasi, I'll work on it there with you if you like. If a few of us work on it bey the time we add to mainspace it'll be hard to dispute then. You are welcome to add history to Marrakech from the new History of Marrakech article to ensure it is fully comprehensive but concise. If you could find the most important missing info and make it concise in the main article with what's there this would be great. Once DYK'd I'll condense the Landmarks of Marrakesh to a reasonable size and GA nom, quite a lot to do yet though. Did you also see the Honiara expansion? Again Landmarks needs a cut but another possible GA..♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 17:02, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
That's exactly why you see I am no longer involved in continous mass stubbing and spend most of my time on quality nowadays on more core articles. Bjarke Ingels is my most recent GA with Ipigott. Most of the article people in the west care about and expect to be decent are not and I've been here 6 years and few of them have developed, some have degraded with haphazard lists and unsourced text actually. I still think Varanasi is worthy of the time and effort and a super interesting place. I will begin compiling a further reading section in your sandbox.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 17:33, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
Did you see Door to Hell?♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 19:31, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

Scanned Intro and chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 9, Bibliography and Index. I can get some more pages (may be a chapter), but probably beyond that copyright might end up an issue (the scanner itself is pretty fast). Let me know when you are done accessing the stuff.

I will concentrate on landmarks such as temples, ghats, university and so forth and also on cleaning of the Ganges in the Varanasi section. I have added all that was necessary on history and the lead section. Please tell me before you want to delete some of my inputs. if you have any particular sections to be added please let me know. Thanks and you are doing a great job on the article. In fact the Sapta Puri article was a DYK, which I did in collaboration with User:Redtigerxyz. Thanks.-- Nvvchar. 19:22, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
I think it would have bene best yes that Nvvchar had concentrated his efforts into the landmark article first with as comprehensive as coverage as he could muster and then summarise the information in the main, I still urge him to do this..♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 19:56, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
Both Kolkata and Mumbai are excellent articles but I think they both undercover architecture and landmarks. As landmarks form the physical body of a city I think it is very important to cover them comprehensively, but you can be in danger of overcovering them.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 20:25, 2 November 2012 (UTC)
I didn't say they were terrible, they're great articles, but the landmarks coverage is definitely undercooked, "light" as you say. Not comprehensive enough. I primarily visit articles on cities and town to learn about their landmarks and history.
Many thanks for messaging me regarding your proposal to delete my article about Ampthill RUFC. Obviously that's not news I like to receive but I would never have known if you had not mentioned it to me as I don't kepe a track of all of the articles I have written.
I have been working on producing articles for all current and former fifth tier rugby union clubs in England as this level, is seen as nationa level and I think partipating at national level is notable enough for each club which has reached this level to have their own article. Thus far I have completed this task for Northern and Midland teams and at some point I will finish the task by doing the London/SE and SW teams.
I've just taken a fresh look at this article because a major concern also seems to be about the level of basicness with this article is and it's fair to say that this is the most basic of all the pages I have created as part of this project. However, their website is very basic and contains very little information so I could only work with what was there. I have looked again at the article and added an additional sentence along with a reference so I hope this allays your concerns somewhat. However, I'm sure there are others who can assist with expanding this article rather than voting for deletion as it isn't just down to one person to work on these articles.{ Rillington ( talk) 16:45, 4 November 2012 (UTC)}

Good evening from the Far Calabria My Dear and Good Jen,
I'm writing to say hello and know how you are, beyond this to wish you a good happy week for you and your husband. I write also and above all to ask what items I cordially translate into Sicilian and Italian, according to our discussion in chat. I ask you to apologize for the delay and especially since I renewed my personal computer with some little something more, just to keep up with the times.
From my part, I wonder if you could expand a little and translate articles, of course, when the time is available for you, I do not want to waste your time..the real life is demanding 100%, but Wikipedia for some of us is our breakout daily and our source of creativity.
Articles I ask are 3:
Radio Studio 54 Network: Radio flagship of Calabria, very popular in analog ie radios and FM radio in Calabria and southern half of Italy, followed but also thanks to streaming web Calabrian diaspora in the world, even from a small Italian restaurant in Hong Kong.
Catona: is a village in the municipality of Reggio Calabria, a former independent municipality until 1927 .. very nice and especially its picturesque waterfront, you should come to visit him.
Campora San Giovanni: is my native hamlet, very beautiful and picturesque that it was a land of immigrants and emigrants, just slightly better style and expanded here and there, to give another improvement of style for the English-speaking origins camporeses.
I know that you are easier to translate from Spanish, so I ask you kindly to always ispriarti Spanish and French versions.
For the rest I hope soon to check out for help. and thank you for your welcome your cookies are delicious, next time you visit the port to the Calabrian roasted coffee (U Caffé Mauro from Reggio Calabria).

Dear Calliopejen1, Although I have been contributing here and there with what I can, many of the infrequent twists and turns of the editing process remain a total mystery to me. I understand that you recently deleted a file uploaded by me at some point and although I'm sure that there were reasonable doubts I would like to understand why is it that I just noticed the warning for deletion this morning. It seems to me that I'm doing something wrong because I had no opportunity whatsoever to amend what needed to be amended or update the information required in aims to prevent the final outcome. Do you have any suggestions for future similar incidents? Best, Sabonarola — Preceding unsigned comment added by Contrakultura ( talk • contribs) 16:44, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I've just noticed that at least one of your additions of maps to infoboxes on buildings in Portland, Oregon, caused the coordinates to be removed from the title bar (and to no longer display anywhere in the article): in Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. It appears that your removal of the coordinates from the embedded NRHP infobox (which infobox is set to automatically displays coords in the title bar) caused them to no longer display. I reinstated them now in that article, which appears to have worked, but there are now two different sets of coordinates in the infobox, so I imagine this could cause problems at some point (or maybe not? It doesn't seem to be a problem in Union Station (Portland, Oregon)) – but I don't know enough about coordinates to know. If my fix needs cleaning up, please feel free. I ask you that please try to figure out how to avoid this problem in the future, as you presumably will be continuing to add maps to more articles. Thanks. SJ Morg ( talk) 18:53, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
I am pretty sure you want to change
{{#if:{{{coordinates_display|}}}|title|μ}}={{{coordinates_display|}}}
to
{{#ifeq:{{{coordinates_display|}}}|inline|μ|title}}={{{coordinates_display|}}}
which should work to suppress the coordinates in the title when |coordinates_display=inline
, and will still keep the old behavior that when coordinates_display is blank, that the coordinates won't display in the title.

{{{intro}}}{{{ref}}} ==Prosecution== {{{prosecution}}}<ref name=dos/> ==Protection== {{{protection}}}<ref name=dos/> ==Prevention== {{{prevention}}}<ref name=dos/> ==See also== *[[Human rights in {{{country}}}]]
e.g. South Africa, Colombia
What you did was create numerous articles with the exact same wording, with only the figures from the DoS "Trafficking in Persons Report 2010" inserted. What on earth would be the purpose of that? Why not just create a single article, human trafficking, or a tabular Trafficking in Persons Report 2010, which would then not be nightmare to maintain?
This isn't all. You yourself tagged your template-created articles as being useless, due to problems with neutrality, failure to meet quality standards, and relying upon a single source. Again, what is the purpose of creating one article, let alone lots of articles, of which you publicly avow that they are worthless?
Now, some of these articles have been fixed by editors cleaning up after you ( Human trafficking in Greece), others may have received some minor edits Colombia) but sit there just as broken as the day your template spewed them out.
So here is my question: are you going to fix this anytime soon? These are your articles, you thought it necessary that they existed as separate pages, you tagged them for cleanup, but you do not seem to active in completing the work you started.
Because, if you are saying that you are not going to fix them, I would propose those articles which have not already been fixed by other editors and still have their template wording should be collapsed into a single article with a list of countries it is applicable to. People will then have a single article to fix instead of the current situation where there is an unknown number of broken articles sitting around the "human trafficking" category.

You disputed that I created the map of Western Australian climates from Scratch using Powerpoint. This is possible - as powerpoint allows maps to be created - I have used it for many maps I have uploaded into the web. The maps are created using the polygon tool in powerpoint with the various colours created as overlays. As a powerpoint it is then saved as a jpeg file which I have then uploaded.
I hope this explains the method I have used. I would appreciate it if this satisfies you that you withdraw the map from deletion. John D. Croft ( talk) 06:43, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading
File:Fernando Amorsolo 1a.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Hi, I saw your edit. Perhaps a removal of this scale should be discussed first. However, the reason you gave - that it was not in the "introduction" - could be an omission in that section (the lead) rather than a commission in the body of the article.

(1) Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Macromolecular assembly. Rejection of stub article for want of formatting: if I take an hour of professional time to draft an article that is (a) absent in any form at present, and (b) better in substance and more referenced than many chemistry stubs -- in order to create a context for other wiki material already appearing -- why is it pro forma rejected for lack of section formatting (with no substantive content issues raised)? I do what I do best. Cannot an imperfect stub vis-a-vis formatting go forward, for others then to improve?
(2) Article on Marco Rubio. Here I was disturbed by what appeared to be bias in the section on personal life: limited description of his spouse (omitting hispanic heritage, listing only a single occupational aspect, cheerleader), and, further, omission of his office's formal response to a news report he had "embellished" his parents immigration story.
I edited these two sections to add content from referenced sources, in particular, drawing the balance from the same Washington Post story that provided the negative content.
The edit was reverted as being "over the top" (?!?), without a further substantive word (no talk). I reverted it back, for want of substance to the initial reversion.
It appears the the reverting individual has bias in this issue (as judged by my more recent discovery of a talk debate over the presentation of the immigration history issue, between him and a additional seemingly biased individual on the other side of the question.
Since my edit was (i) fact-based, adding references in both Rubio-positive (spouse representation) and -negative (immigration history) directions, (ii) uses the same source as the original version (the WP article) to balance the section on the immigration controversy, (iii) adds the detail that the WP report led to revision of the Senator's web pages on the matter (a possibly perceived negative), alongside his counter-explanation to the charge of embellishment (a possibly perceived positive) -- I ask that my edit be allowed to stand, or that the matter be elevated as appropriate (so that the back and forth on this section ceases).
(3) Fyi, recent work done on Burgi-Dunitz and Flippin-Lodge articles is substantially mine.
That I have to write such things as 1 and 2 here, and waste both of our time, has as opportunity cost other content not being written, and continues to fuel my speculation that this commitment to this organization is a waste of time.
Please see this talk, from me. Appreciate intervention/guidance. This is last straw for this subject expert.

Jen when time permits, please see relevant talk entries related to my "macromolecular assemblies" article, discussing credentials, badgering, walkers versus talkers, etc. Perhaps, if you have time for one thing, you can find someone seniorin wikipedia to whom this process concern can be elevated. (If discussion dies this time, I'm gone.) This said to you because of your apparent accomplishment (since you will understand what the demands of the non-wiki world are like), and because you're experiencing, in this summer, the juggling and demands of life that will be more or less normal for the rest of it -- where time demands of other major, future "projects" will replace the current timeline and milestones of getting hitched! Bottom line here, life is too short for work-related commitments that do not bear proportionate fruit (which is what wiki currently is for me). If too arduous, they impinge, overly, on other truly important things. If I can ascertain with someone senior at wiki, Y/N, if there is any long-term hope for changes in process that might lead to higher quality quality scientific content, it will help me to my necessary decision-point. Cheers, and best wishes for the bar and the big event.

Also I wondered if you could access national archives or whatever which might list all of the prisoners ever held at Alcatraz. I would be good for rooting out missing notable criminals, not to to mention being a valuable record on here. I was right, list here in the National Archives. This though is more valuable as it lists the inmates in order of arrival and details on their crimes and when they got out. Can you do me a favour and try to compile a resourceful table in excel or something which would list them both in order of arrival and in alpha order in sortable tables or something and create List of inmates of Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary ? I've started Alcatraz Federal Penitentiary also today and it would be a useful link in the notable inmates section to have a full list.

Dunno, I have a rather dubious relationship with some of the WP:India members right now after I said its extremely unlikely a native will come along and write a decent sourced article. Have you seen my proposal on on Village pump proposals, that's what started it., a disgust of the state of average Pakistan and India articles. I'd be willing to put the effort into Varanasi but I suspect it'll be reverted. I've put your version in User:Calliopejen1/Varanasi, I'll work on it there with you if you like. If a few of us work on it bey the time we add to mainspace it'll be hard to dispute then. You are welcome to add history to Marrakech from the new History of Marrakech article to ensure it is fully comprehensive but concise. If you could find the most important missing info and make it concise in the main article with what's there this would be great. Once DYK'd I'll condense the Landmarks of Marrakesh to a reasonable size and GA nom, quite a lot to do yet though. Did you also see the Honiara expansion? Again Landmarks needs a cut but another possible GA..♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 17:02, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
That's exactly why you see I am no longer involved in continous mass stubbing and spend most of my time on quality nowadays on more core articles. Bjarke Ingels is my most recent GA with Ipigott. Most of the article people in the west care about and expect to be decent are not and I've been here 6 years and few of them have developed, some have degraded with haphazard lists and unsourced text actually. I still think Varanasi is worthy of the time and effort and a super interesting place. I will begin compiling a further reading section in your sandbox.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 17:33, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

I didn't say they were terrible, they're great articles, but the landmarks coverage is definitely undercooked, "light" as you say. Not comprehensive enough. I primarily visit articles on cities and town to learn about their landmarks and history.
Many thanks for messaging me regarding your proposal to delete my article about Ampthill RUFC. Obviously that's not news I like to receive but I would never have known if you had not mentioned it to me as I don't kepe a track of all of the articles I have written.
I have been working on producing articles for all current and former fifth tier rugby union clubs in England as this level, is seen as nationa level and I think partipating at national level is notable enough for each club which has reached this level to have their own article. Thus far I have completed this task for Northern and Midland teams and at some point I will finish the task by doing the London/SE and SW teams.
I've just taken a fresh look at this article because a major concern also seems to be about the level of basicness with this article is and it's fair to say that this is the most basic of all the pages I have created as part of this project. However, their website is very basic and contains very little information so I could only work with what was there. I have looked again at the article and added an additional sentence along with a reference so I hope this allays your concerns somewhat. However, I'm sure there are others who can assist with expanding this article rather than voting for deletion as it isn't just down to one person to work on these articles.{ Rillington ( talk) 16:45, 4 November 2012 (UTC)}

Good evening from the Far Calabria My Dear and Good Jen,
I'm writing to say hello and know how you are, beyond this to wish you a good happy week for you and your husband. I write also and above all to ask what items I cordially translate into Sicilian and Italian, according to our discussion in chat. I ask you to apologize for the delay and especially since I renewed my personal computer with some little something more, just to keep up with the times.
From my part, I wonder if you could expand a little and translate articles, of course, when the time is available for you, I do not want to waste your time..the real life is demanding 100%, but Wikipedia for some of us is our breakout daily and our source of creativity.
Articles I ask are 3:
Radio Studio 54 Network: Radio flagship of Calabria, very popular in analog ie radios and FM radio in Calabria and southern half of Italy, followed but also thanks to streaming web Calabrian diaspora in the world, even from a small Italian restaurant in Hong Kong.
Catona: is a village in the municipality of Reggio Calabria, a former independent municipality until 1927 .. very nice and especially its picturesque waterfront, you should come to visit him.
Campora San Giovanni: is my native hamlet, very beautiful and picturesque that it was a land of immigrants and emigrants, just slightly better style and expanded here and there, to give another improvement of style for the English-speaking origins camporeses.
I know that you are easier to translate from Spanish, so I ask you kindly to always ispriarti Spanish and French versions.
For the rest I hope soon to check out for help. and thank you for your welcome your cookies are delicious, next time you visit the port to the Calabrian roasted coffee (U Caffé Mauro from Reggio Calabria).
Hugs to you and your husband. Your Luigi/Lodewijk -- Lodewijk Vadacchino ( talk) 20:25, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Afroyim v. Rusk (a 1967 Supreme Court case on citizenship law) is, I believe, very close to being ready for FAC. As a significant contributor to my last FAC a year ago ( United States v.

Dear Calliopejen1, Although I have been contributing here and there with what I can, many of the infrequent twists and turns of the editing process remain a total mystery to me. I understand that you recently deleted a file uploaded by me at some point and although I'm sure that there were reasonable doubts I would like to understand why is it that I just noticed the warning for deletion this morning. It seems to me that I'm doing something wrong because I had no opportunity whatsoever to amend what needed to be amended or update the information required in aims to prevent the final outcome. Do you have any suggestions for future similar incidents? Best, Sabonarola — Preceding unsigned comment added by Contrakultura ( talk • contribs) 16:44, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

Regarding Wikipedia:Redirects_for_discussion/Log/2012_December_18#Template:Infobox_County .... the proposal is only about deleting the upper case versions. The "find" argument that you gave does not apply, because the templates can still be found by the lower case versions.

Hi. I've just noticed that at least one of your additions of maps to infoboxes on buildings in Portland, Oregon, caused the coordinates to be removed from the title bar (and to no longer display anywhere in the article): in Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall. It appears that your removal of the coordinates from the embedded NRHP infobox (which infobox is set to automatically displays coords in the title bar) caused them to no longer display. I reinstated them now in that article, which appears to have worked, but there are now two different sets of coordinates in the infobox, so I imagine this could cause problems at some point (or maybe not? It doesn't seem to be a problem in Union Station (Portland, Oregon)) – but I don't know enough about coordinates to know. If my fix needs cleaning up, please feel free. I ask you that please try to figure out how to avoid this problem in the future, as you presumably will be continuing to add maps to more articles. Thanks. SJ Morg ( talk) 18:53, 20 December 2012 (UTC)
I am pretty sure you want to change
{{#if:{{{coordinates_display|}}}|title|μ}}={{{coordinates_display|}}}
to
{{#ifeq:{{{coordinates_display|}}}|inline|μ|title}}={{{coordinates_display|}}}
which should work to suppress the coordinates in the title when |coordinates_display=inline
, and will still keep the old behavior that when coordinates_display is blank, that the coordinates won't display in the title.

There are several details of the project that would do well with wider input and participation, such as the article nomination and selection process, the amount and type of articles displayed, the implementation on the main page and other things.

I note that you created articles by using a template, during 2008-2011, of the form
{{{intro}}}{{{ref}}} ==Prosecution== {{{prosecution}}}<ref name=dos/> ==Protection== {{{protection}}}<ref name=dos/> ==Prevention== {{{prevention}}}<ref name=dos/> ==See also== *[[Human rights in {{{country}}}]]
e.g. South Africa, Colombia
What you did was create numerous articles with the exact same wording, with only the figures from the DoS "Trafficking in Persons Report 2010" inserted. What on earth would be the purpose of that? Why not just create a single article, human trafficking, or a tabular Trafficking in Persons Report 2010, which would then not be nightmare to maintain?
This isn't all. You yourself tagged your template-created articles as being useless, due to problems with neutrality, failure to meet quality standards, and relying upon a single source. Again, what is the purpose of creating one article, let alone lots of articles, of which you publicly avow that they are worthless?
Now, some of these articles have been fixed by editors cleaning up after you ( Human trafficking in Greece), others may have received some minor edits Colombia) but sit there just as broken as the day your template spewed them out.
So here is my question: are you going to fix this anytime soon? These are your articles, you thought it necessary that they existed as separate pages, you tagged them for cleanup, but you do not seem to active in completing the work you started.
Because, if you are saying that you are not going to fix them, I would propose those articles which have not already been fixed by other editors and still have their template wording should be collapsed into a single article with a list of countries it is applicable to. People will then have a single article to fix instead of the current situation where there is an unknown number of broken articles sitting around the "human trafficking" category.
Thanks, -- dab (𒁳) 12:48, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
You disputed that I created the map of Western Australian climates from Scratch using Powerpoint. This is possible - as powerpoint allows maps to be created - I have used it for many maps I have uploaded into the web. The maps are created using the polygon tool in powerpoint with the various colours created as overlays. As a powerpoint it is then saved as a jpeg file which I have then uploaded.
I hope this explains the method I have used. I would appreciate it if this satisfies you that you withdraw the map from deletion. John D. Croft ( talk) 06:43, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

File:Fernando Amorsolo 1a.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.
