Any suggestions on what to be done with this nomination? As noted, the nominator is blocked, but the nomination remains and the article has also been worked by others. Should we just add the red arrow to get a reviewer to look at it, or is there a reason it should be dropped? I'm unable to remember a like situation that I could use as precedence, but I haven't been around as long as you have. BlueMoonset ( talk) 00:38, 25 December 2012 (UTC)
Hey Crisco. I see that you are very good at writing FAs for films and I am interested into making all the films by Hayao Miyazaki to FA status, specifically Spirited Away and Ponyo.

Crisco, I was wondering whether you could take a look at this one and see whether it has improved to the point that the refimprove template you added to the article was ready to be removed, and if so, whether it was also to the point that it was ready to have its DYK approval restored (or if there were other issues that needed to be addressed).

Crisco, I've recently completed my tenth DYK prep set in a row (and staged the special occasion New Years hook in the next prep area). I've been trying to keep us a couple of days ahead, and I think I deserve a rest. Furthermore, the people whose hooks I've given final approval to over the past week or so need a chance to get their hooks promoted. If you're up to building the next prep set, I'd really appreciate it. I don't know what's happened to everyone else: I keep hoping someone else will step in, but no one does.
I'm also not entirely sure I'm being sufficiently critical: the Jalsha Movies hook currently in Prep 2 strikes me, on second look, as borderline (or possibly over the border) promotional, so if you could take another look at it, I'd greatly appreciate it. It's still in prep, but maybe not for long since the "backlog" header for queues is back on, and this is the only filled prep available.
Third, there have been a spate of nominations lately that seem to me to be lacking in the prose department, which includes structural deficiencies. I'm beginning to feel like the proverbial bad cop, and some of them have serious neutrality/POV issues as well: the articles on Armenian topics by a recent convert to DYK, Proudbolsahye, for example—one caught the attention of a brand new reviewer ( Template:Did you know nominations/Murder of Sevag Balikci).
Finally, either I'm getting better or too picky as a reviewer, but I'm sending a lot of approved hooks back for more work. Sometimes it's problems with paragraph sourcing, inline sourcing for hooks, or bare refs; sometimes it's prose; sometimes it's overly close paraphrasing, and sometimes it's a combination of them.
Thanks for anything you can do to help, and have a very happy new year. (Let me know how 2013 looks, okay? You get to give it a test drive long before I do...) BlueMoonset ( talk) 01:36, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the vandal revert! Peacemaker67 ( send... over) 01:30, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
Hey there - thanks for bringing in the mop and bucket but I'm sure that my recent revert fixed Indo people - Kwuaf change to that article was just a redirect not an actual move. ie, my previous version on this diff was actually correct. It fixed that page, but not the others. -- Merbabu ( talk) 01:43, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
Hmmm, so this section Indo_people#Historical_overview starts with hat note links to Indos in pre-colonial history and Indos in colonial history. The first works fine, but the second confuses me. Where's that article? The links were inserted into Indo people (that came our wrong, but I digress) well before today's dramas, but the second link appears to be new. hmmm. Did we lose an article? -- Merbabu ( talk) 01:57, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
...I think I've worked it out:
There were three existing articles that were moved or redirected - I've listed them below under their original/pre-today names in bold. I've gone through each of the history pages and checked from which page Kwuaf first moved each article. Essentially my recommendation/request is that numbers 2 & 3 be restored to the original title/location (in bold) - number 1 is already done:
Perhaps the best way is to fix 3 first, so it clears way to restore 2. Clear as mud? :) -- Merbabu ( talk) 03:15, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Crisco, the queues are empty, and as we're on the new 3/day schedule, a promotion is needed within the next four hours or so or our first 8-hour set gets extended. I'm hoping you can promote at least one. I've done the next three prep sets, but Lord Roem started the fourth (and with a nearly identical picture to one I'd just used: in fact, I was deciding between the two, and decided that the one I went with on ((prep|4}} was the better of the two), so I didn't do that one, since I didn't want it to seem like I was building nearly adjacent sets around two green mounds.
Thanks for anything you can do to break the log jam; with 3/day, we need more frequent admin prep promotions. I'm still blown away by the fact that we have 128 approved hooks, and only 48 open slots between the six empty queues and one nearly empty prep area. Yikes.

Although it appears I may have coined the term, someone else started the essay - I'm not that vain... (!) Bencherlite Talk 18:45, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
I noticed that you closed the Victoria Leigh Soto AfD discussion with the text "Closing this a little early as it is quite clear that an out-and-out deletion is not going to happen, and AFD is not for the creation / retargeting of redirects." I'd like to request that you either re-open it and allow it to run its full course, or ask for some other administrators opinions, as I haven't seen an early close for no consensus before. The main reason I'm asking this is because the article really looks like it fails BIO1E, regardless of VICTIM or other policies, and the, in my opinion, large consensus is that a redirect is more appropriate for now. Also, it is an acceptable and enforceable outcome of an AfD to have a redirect made. I'd like to request that the AfD be at the very least reevaluated by you or another administrator.
Addendum: You in your closing statement refered further consideration to the talkpage, yet it's better to keep the discussion on the AfD page until the official closing would have occurred. That way editors can continue arguments without having to copy-paste or other things. Plus, the reason you gave for moving the discussion to the talkpage is, as quoted above, that AfD isn't for redirects. AfD outcomes can be redirects, and that's enforceable if the consensus is there for a redirect (which I believe there is in this case).

PERFINI, Enam Djam Di Djogja, and Max Tera I've started You might have something more on them.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 13:41, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
Crisco, I'd like to ask you a favor. I think I'm missing the forest for the trees (or vice versa) on a number of Proudbolsahye's ( talk) articles. There have been issues of neutrality and close paraphrasing, and I'm not always happy with the way facts are presented: there seem to be holes or assumptions. At this point, I think these articles need a fresh set of eyes, because I haven't been giving them the attention they need, mostly because I'm not sure what really needs to be done or said.
The first article, nominated by Yerevanci, is Pangaltı Armenian Cemetery. (The rest have been self-nominated.) Since it was nominated, most of its text has been duplicated in the table of notable properties in Confiscated Armenian Properties in Turkey; should it be merged at this point? The latter article, however, seems to have issues in how it uses the numbers: in addition to the properties that have been restored, another set seems to be in the process of being restored, etc. (See its talk page for a discussion of some of the issues.) I'm not sure percentages should be used, since they're interpretations of what the categories mean, which may affect neutrality. I'd like to have someone with a good sense of things look over her submitted articles—and not just these two—for POV. (The Hagop Vahram Çerçiyan article was the one which had the notable close paraphrasing. This was one of the rare English sources, and it was quite striking before fixes were made. That said, I think it's an interesting article, but someone else needs to look at it now.)
Thanks for giving this your attention, if you can. I haven't had a lot of experience on judging when POV issues have been dealt with, or where the line is, really. BlueMoonset ( talk) 03:35, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

Any suggestions on what to be done with this nomination? As noted, the nominator is blocked, but the nomination remains and the article has also been worked by others. Should we just add the red arrow to get a reviewer to look at it, or is there a reason it should be dropped?

Crisco, I've recently completed my tenth DYK prep set in a row (and staged the special occasion New Years hook in the next prep area). I've been trying to keep us a couple of days ahead, and I think I deserve a rest. Furthermore, the people whose hooks I've given final approval to over the past week or so need a chance to get their hooks promoted. If you're up to building the next prep set, I'd really appreciate it. I don't know what's happened to everyone else: I keep hoping someone else will step in, but no one does.
I'm also not entirely sure I'm being sufficiently critical: the Jalsha Movies hook currently in Prep 2 strikes me, on second look, as borderline (or possibly over the border) promotional, so if you could take another look at it, I'd greatly appreciate it. It's still in prep, but maybe not for long since the "backlog" header for queues is back on, and this is the only filled prep available.
Third, there have been a spate of nominations lately that seem to me to be lacking in the prose department, which includes structural deficiencies. I'm beginning to feel like the proverbial bad cop, and some of them have serious neutrality/POV issues as well: the articles on Armenian topics by a recent convert to DYK, Proudbolsahye, for example—one caught the attention of a brand new reviewer ( Template:Did you know nominations/Murder of Sevag Balikci).
Finally, either I'm getting better or too picky as a reviewer, but I'm sending a lot of approved hooks back for more work. Sometimes it's problems with paragraph sourcing, inline sourcing for hooks, or bare refs; sometimes it's prose; sometimes it's overly close paraphrasing, and sometimes it's a combination of them.
Thanks for anything you can do to help, and have a very happy new year. (Let me know how 2013 looks, okay? You get to give it a test drive long before I do...) BlueMoonset ( talk) 01:36, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Hey there - thanks for bringing in the mop and bucket but I'm sure that my recent revert fixed Indo people - Kwuaf change to that article was just a redirect not an actual move. ie, my previous version on this diff was actually correct. It fixed that page, but not the others. -- Merbabu ( talk) 01:43, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
Hmmm, so this section Indo_people#Historical_overview starts with hat note links to Indos in pre-colonial history and Indos in colonial history. The first works fine, but the second confuses me. Where's that article? The links were inserted into Indo people (that came our wrong, but I digress) well before today's dramas, but the second link appears to be new. hmmm. Did we lose an article? -- Merbabu ( talk) 01:57, 5 January 2013 (UTC)
...I think I've worked it out:
There were three existing articles that were moved or redirected - I've listed them below under their original/pre-today names in bold. I've gone through each of the history pages and checked from which page Kwuaf first moved each article. Essentially my recommendation/request is that numbers 2 & 3 be restored to the original title/location (in bold) - number 1 is already done:
Perhaps the best way is to fix 3 first, so it clears way to restore 2. Clear as mud? :) -- Merbabu ( talk) 03:15, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Crisco, the queues are empty, and as we're on the new 3/day schedule, a promotion is needed within the next four hours or so or our first 8-hour set gets extended. I'm hoping you can promote at least one. I've done the next three prep sets, but Lord Roem started the fourth (and with a nearly identical picture to one I'd just used: in fact, I was deciding between the two, and decided that the one I went with on ((prep|4}} was the better of the two), so I didn't do that one, since I didn't want it to seem like I was building nearly adjacent sets around two green mounds.
Thanks for anything you can do to break the log jam; with 3/day, we need more frequent admin prep promotions. I'm still blown away by the fact that we have 128 approved hooks, and only 48 open slots between the six empty queues and one nearly empty prep area. Yikes.

Although it appears I may have coined the term, someone else started the essay - I'm not that vain... (!) Bencherlite Talk 18:45, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
I noticed that you closed the Victoria Leigh Soto AfD discussion with the text "Closing this a little early as it is quite clear that an out-and-out deletion is not going to happen, and AFD is not for the creation / retargeting of redirects." I'd like to request that you either re-open it and allow it to run its full course, or ask for some other administrators opinions, as I haven't seen an early close for no consensus before. The main reason I'm asking this is because the article really looks like it fails BIO1E, regardless of VICTIM or other policies, and the, in my opinion, large consensus is that a redirect is more appropriate for now. Also, it is an acceptable and enforceable outcome of an AfD to have a redirect made. I'd like to request that the AfD be at the very least reevaluated by you or another administrator.
Addendum: You in your closing statement refered further consideration to the talkpage, yet it's better to keep the discussion on the AfD page until the official closing would have occurred. That way editors can continue arguments without having to copy-paste or other things. Plus, the reason you gave for moving the discussion to the talkpage is, as quoted above, that AfD isn't for redirects. AfD outcomes can be redirects, and that's enforceable if the consensus is there for a redirect (which I believe there is in this case).

On 8 January 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Nugroho Notosusanto, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Indonesian historian and minister of education Nugroho Notosusanto (pictured) had a film-writing credit? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nugroho Notosusanto. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Hi,
I would appreciate your opinion about notability issue on this page.-- Antidiskriminator ( talk) 08:24, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
I'm doing a GA review of Jacob's Ladder (film). Is the image File:Head_VI_(1949).JPG, already used at Francis Bacon (painter), fair use in it? It's quite useful for showing one artistic model for the film's horror, but I know we're supposed to minimize our use of fair use files. -- Khazar2 ( talk) 02:18, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
( edit conflict) there.... Thanks for promoting! Can we have it on 12 January please? That's 150 birth anniversary of the person , a very special day (I can give you many reliable sources to show how that day will be celebrated worldwide, please see this Google News search result page). And.. after the edit conflict... I tried to add PD 1923 File:Swami Vivekananda 1893 Scanned Image.jpg.. can you please add this image? Thanks! -- Tito Dutta ( talk) 15:46, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
Crisco, this one's kind of stuck: Aaron nominated it a couple of days too late, but it isn't his article, it's someone else who, as far as I can tell, has never had a DYK before. I'd like to ask you to decide whether to give it an exception or an X; I'm a little too annoyed at Aaron right now to be able to properly weigh those two factors. Thank you.

Can I get links to such things in English? Today is the first I heard of this, and I am teaching about human rights right now.-- Kintetsubuffalo ( talk) 12:00, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
Replied. Sorry. AsianGeographer ( talk) 23:15, 7 January 2013 (UTC)
Thank you! I talked to James about this, since it was something of a surprise for me, and he said that he had chosen one for me, knowing what I already had, and had meant to talk to me about it after Christmas, but it had slipped his mind. I had not even read the nomination until today, and I'm humbled. Really, floored. (Honestly, there may have been some moisture.) I think I will wait to say thank you until it arrives. And I figure out how. -- Moonriddengirl (talk) 16:22, 10 January 2013 (UTC)
Hey there! Just wanted to note that you may want to run the alt as a Delist-and-replace (inviting all commenters from the original to participate): There's probably not enough time to evaluate another alt on the current nomination, but a D&R, so long as everyone from the original nom is invited on their talk page, should go fine and have plenty of participation.

Thanks for your help on the DYK talk page. Could I get you to have a quick look at the image for Template:Did you know nominations/Marian Cripps, Baroness Parmoor? I'm fairly sure the licence isn't right (see discussion), and not at all sure whether artist dead for >70 years is sufficient alone. Cheers, Espresso Addict ( talk) 05:22, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
I saw you asking, wonder what the others will come up with.

I am interested in a picture like this, Mystic Marriage, to illustrate BWV 32. This one comes with many question marks. Can you resolve some? Cats? Do you know any other one? -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 19:21, 11 January 2013 (UTC)
On 12 January 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Janur Kuning, which you created or substantially expanded.

PERFINI, Enam Djam Di Djogja, and Max Tera I've started You might have something more on them.♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld 13:41, 12 January 2013 (UTC)
Crisco, I'd like to ask you a favor. I think I'm missing the forest for the trees (or vice versa) on a number of Proudbolsahye's ( talk) articles. There have been issues of neutrality and close paraphrasing, and I'm not always happy with the way facts are presented: there seem to be holes or assumptions. At this point, I think these articles need a fresh set of eyes, because I haven't been giving them the attention they need, mostly because I'm not sure what really needs to be done or said.
The first article, nominated by Yerevanci, is Pangaltı Armenian Cemetery. (The rest have been self-nominated.) Since it was nominated, most of its text has been duplicated in the table of notable properties in Confiscated Armenian Properties in Turkey; should it be merged at this point? The latter article, however, seems to have issues in how it uses the numbers: in addition to the properties that have been restored, another set seems to be in the process of being restored, etc. (See its talk page for a discussion of some of the issues.) I'm not sure percentages should be used, since they're interpretations of what the categories mean, which may affect neutrality. I'd like to have someone with a good sense of things look over her submitted articles—and not just these two—for POV. (The Hagop Vahram Çerçiyan article was the one which had the notable close paraphrasing. This was one of the rare English sources, and it was quite striking before fixes were made. That said, I think it's an interesting article, but someone else needs to look at it now.)
Thanks for giving this your attention, if you can. I haven't had a lot of experience on judging when POV issues have been dealt with, or where the line is, really. BlueMoonset ( talk) 03:35, 13 January 2013 (UTC)
