Hello again. I hope you enjoyed the festivities. For the record, this is what I meant by "FAC4 won't be the last time you'll be speaking with me". There's FAC numbers 5, 6, 7 and 8 to look forward to. But hopefully we can sort this out – one way or the other – before 6, 7 or 8. So to reiterate, specific aspects of the article you currently object to are:
Left some quick comments on the talk page but otherwise, for a number of reasons, I'm not planning to engage in a perpetual review as I did in-between the last three FACs. Laser brain's advice (re: reaching out to another experienced/unassociated FA writer) is a good place to start. czar 06:07, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
... "If they are design choices that need to be discussed in tandem with critical reception, then maybe they should even be split back out to their own subsection or section on the sexualization of her portrayal? And what would be left from this Reception paragraph as-is if the design choices alone were moved into another section?"You ask for one thing and simultaneously dispute the efficacy of performing such an action. Lest we forget about you complaining at FAC4 about something which was only done to the article based on something you said at FAC3. And now you're also complaining at the talk page about the moving of the 1UP.com source, which was only ever done as an attempt to address criticisms you made at FAC4. This is a never-ending cascade of self-contradiction. Also, your focusing and giving so much weight to a little bit of simple checkbox formatting is telling. You've been combative and edit warring from the get-go. All you're doing is confirming my suspicion that you're perpetuating an argument which I was never even party to.

Hi Czar, thanks for your note! The links were helpful; I added the project page to my watchlist and will check out the cleanup categories (I didn't even know that tool existed; thank you). Also, I don't think I ever said this, but thank you for teaching me how to use the sfn and harv templates, which I learned entirely by looking at your work while I was editing Schinas. I found that article from a help page request I saw, and got kind of hooked by the mystery of it all. I will take a crack at expanding the lead, too. I assume you've seen the peer review? If you have anything to add there it would be most welcome! BTW, I thought ANI was part of WikiProject Anarchism? :-) Thanks for reaching out! Levivich ( talk) 21:51, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
<ref>{{harvnb|...}}: "Quote."</ref>
and when should I use {{sfn|...|ps=: "Quote."}}
?<ref>
tags (footnote formatting) or trailing period. {{
sfn}} adds those latter two elements. In uncomplicated footnotes and when the article contains a separate bibliography, {{
sfn}} is the fastest way to cite a source+page. To avoid
this ref error, it's easier to construct your own footnote,
starting with {{
harvnb}} and adding elements than it is to struggle with shoving everything into {{
sfn}} modifiers. The error in this case came from {{
sfn|Kathimerini|2006|ps=abc}}
and {{
sfn|Kathimerini|2006|ps=xyz}}
having sharing the same (read: conflicting) ref name. Building custom citations with <ref>
tags avoids this collision. Check out
the template's documentation for more cases/options, though I think the format used in Schinas should cover most of your editing, depending on your footnote/notes style.

Hi all, following up on last month's announcement...
Multilingual file captions will be released this week, on either Wednesday, 9 January or Thursday, 10 January 2019. Captions are a feature to add short, translatable descriptions to files. Here's some links you might want to look follow before the release, if you haven't already:
Additionally, there will be an IRC office hour on Thursday, 10 January with the Structured Data team to talk about file captions, as well as anything else the community may be interested in. Date/time conversion, as well as a link to join, are on Meta.
Thanks for your time, I look forward to seeing those who can make it to the IRC office hour on Thursday. -- Keegan (WMF) ( talk) 21:09, 7 January 2019 (UTC)Text has been added in the article, without prior consensus.

Hi Czar, I was wondering if you could help with a dispute I'm having over at Talk:Carlos_Salzedo#Untitled. Baron D. Z. didn't like my substantial edits to the page and changed information on it without adding in-line citations. I reverted his edits. Baron D.

I put a lot of work into sourcing the page, so I may be overly invested. Rachel Helps (BYU) ( talk) 17:55, 9 January 2019 (UTC)

You posted in my talk page some days ago! I´m very interested in help in the wiki project anarchism but I don´t know where to start.
Since most of the time I edit and try to improve the navigational boxes templates related to anarchism, socialism and libertarianism, I have some ideas to get the portal more friendly, like I try to do with the navboxes, I don´t know where I can show and discuss these ideas. But in the articles itself I don´t know what can I do since most of my knoledge on anarchism still comes mainly from the Afaq. I´m opened to suggestions on what I can do to the project!
ps: I´ve found very usefull this wikipedia guideline Wikipedia:Anarchism referencing guidelines specily the section of reliable publishers (Anarchy Archives, Anti-State.com, Libcom and Infoshop News).

Hi there!
So I've been a bit preoccupied with school over the last few months, and was for a while burnt out with editing. But I've recently got back into it and I'm trying to bring the No Russian article up to FA status. It's a rather dense article for a single level, but as I'm sure your aware, it deserves to have a dense and detailed article. Right now I was just wondering if there was anything you could do to help, like a mock peer review. Nothing major, I just wanted to know what else I can do. Right now I still have to add more information about the initial reception from both gaming journalists and major new publications, the British parliament debating the content of the level, more analysis from research papers about the impact of No Russian, and the possible connection to the 2011 Norway Attacks. Thank you! Famous Hobo ( talk) 23:13, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
To Whom This May Concern,
I understand that Grace Ueng's wikipedia page was deleted because it did not meet the general notability guideline, but even after doing a lot of research into what that means, I still do not understand why exactly the page was taken down. She had MIT Tech Review ( https://www.technologyreview.com/s/411472/grace-w-ueng-87/), Audrey Magazine ( http://kore.am/audreys-women-of-influence-grace-ueng-founder-and-ceo-of-savvy-marketing-group-with-web-exclusives/), Inc Magazine ( https://www.inc.com/magazine/20091001/ceo-passions-outdoor-cycling.html), and other secondary sources.
I was wondering if there's any way to restore her wiki. If there is no clear way, could I please at least have the content in Grace Ueng's deleted wikipedia page sent to my email? Thank you so much!

Hello! I have reverted the redirect on Othello (2009 video game). It seems like a game that passes GNG just by a touch thanks to it's Switch release. Has 2 reviews from reliable sources in WP:VG/RS in Nintendo Life and Nintendo World Report, with 2 situational in Cubed3 and Gaming Age. None of these are deemed unreliable, thus making the game pass WP:GNG. Not the most notable game from Arc System Works, for sure, and the article state is pretty bad, but it is enough notable by wiki standards I guess. If you think that is not enough then I would advise opening an AfD for a fair discussion. Regards, Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 13:11, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
Hi Czar, can I ask you a favor? I have finished with R Sources in history of anarchism. Can you help a little bit with spelling/grammar/syntax ( I am very weak in english and in my native lang in these kind of subjects). I have remove much of the content (unfortunatelly, non RS and seemed a little bit trivial) so there might be gaps in the history of anarchism. Have a look and let me know of your thoughts pls. My aim is to describe the history of ideas and actions of Anarchism as good as possible. Cheers! Cinadon36 ( talk) 06:22, 1 February 2019 (UTC)
I already explained this on the noticeboard, where I thought the issue was settled - I added the Authority control to articles to see if they have wkidata already - this happened, for instance, on the page for the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Some pages do not have wikidata already, so I add it to the bottem of the page so that it will be ready if and when wikidata is created. Note that I also add it while also doing routine editing on a page, for instance the The Literary Voyager.-- Bellerophon5685 ( talk) 00:53, 3 February 2019 (UTC)

I'm a bit baffled as to why you restored literally everything I changed. Firstly, I don't know why you didn't just format the dates yourself into mdy if you're going to force them to be in mdy with the df= parameter in references. The end result is exactly the same, and it saves needing to have those in the first place. Secondly, if there is only one author of an article, you don't need the 1 suffixes in first= and last=; I trust you know this? It gives the appearance of a newbie who just used an automatic reference template. Thirdly, we don't need the venue= parameter for studio albums. That's for live albums, and do you honestly think they recorded plastic objects at a venue rather than a studio? Doubt it. Finally, talking about something that hasn't happened yet as an excuse to remove a notability template doesn't really fly in all other circumstances. As I said in my second edit summary, I'm pretty sure admins should know better than to do this—this looks like an inexperienced editor who's pissed somebody tagged an article they made. If there is a concern, it shouldn't be removed until the issue is fixed and I'm quite sure a statement alone about something you think will happen but that hasn't actually happened yet doesn't fix it. If you're annoyed by my edit or me putting it there then you shouldn't be taking it personally, and that doesn't mean you should undo literally everything I did. Thanks.

|df=
. If you change the date format and spacing in a drive-by edit, yes, you should expect to be reverted. As for the other
cosmetic changes, as I already wrote, they make no material change and are not needed. My revert rests well within
BRD, but yours
does not. As for taking it personally, start by re-reading your own post.

Sabre Wulf is an action-adventure game by Ultimate Play the Game, initially released for the ZX Spectrum home computer in 1984. The player navigates the pith-helmeted Sabreman through a 2D jungle maze while collecting amulet pieces to bypass the guardian at its exit. The player does not receive explicit guidance on how to play and is left to decipher the game's objectives through trial and error. The developers had finished Sabre Wulf's sequels in advance of its release but—in keeping with their penchant for secrecy—chose to withhold them until later that year. Ultimate hired outside developers to port Sabre Wulf to other computing platforms: the BBC Micro, Commodore 64, and Amstrad CPC. Sabre Wulf was a bestseller and a financial success. Several gaming publications recommended the game, and Crash magazine readers named it the "Best Maze Game" of 1984. Game journalists rate it among the Spectrum's best releases.
In Greek: Η ανοιχτή ιδεολογική αντιπαράθεση κατέληξε σε αιµατοχυσία, η οποία έφτασε σε αληθινό πογκρόµ κατά τα ∆εκεµβριανά. Αν και από τους 84 εκτελεσµένους από το ΚΚΕ αρχειοµαρξιστές και τροτσκιστές της περιόδου 1944-1945, οι περισσότεροι έχασαν τη ζωή τους στην πρωτεύουσα, οι κατοχικές δολοφονίες (µέχρι τον Νοέµβριο του 1944) είναι λιγότερες από δέκα
In English:The open ideological confrontation resulted in a bloodshed, which reached a pongrom in Decemvriana. Although of the 84 archeoMarxists and Trotskyites executed by the KKE in 1944-1945, most of them died in the capital, occupying assassinations (until November 1944) are fewer than ten.
From a most prominent historian. This is from his msc thesis in a conference. Published in a book.

Regarding your justifications here.
To sum up, you have merged one page with another but trashed almost all of its information. That doesn't work for me. How to find a way forward? I suggest reinstating the page and cutting out the self-linked social centres which i can only presume is the bit that actually offended you? This is basically your solution 1, which you could have already done. Considering I'm still tidying up your destructive edits here as well, I am starting to wonder why i need to clear your mess up again. Anyway, i've started the new page here.

Would you like to work together on improving Tetris? I copied the entire article on my sandbox and just making improvements. Reason why i copied it into my sandbox is because there's a chance that a lot of unverifiable content will have to be removed and don't want to cause any edit wars with those who are fans of the article.That and my busy schedule causes me to make small edits at a time. I'm starting very basic, adding proper citation to the references and re-organizing the sections.

Hello again. I hope you enjoyed the festivities. For the record, this is what I meant by "FAC4 won't be the last time you'll be speaking with me". There's FAC numbers 5, 6, 7 and 8 to look forward to. But hopefully we can sort this out – one way or the other – before 6, 7 or 8. So to reiterate, specific aspects of the article you currently object to are:
Left some quick comments on the talk page but otherwise, for a number of reasons, I'm not planning to engage in a perpetual review as I did in-between the last three FACs. Laser brain's advice (re: reaching out to another experienced/unassociated FA writer) is a good place to start. czar 06:07, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
... "If they are design choices that need to be discussed in tandem with critical reception, then maybe they should even be split back out to their own subsection or section on the sexualization of her portrayal? And what would be left from this Reception paragraph as-is if the design choices alone were moved into another section?"You ask for one thing and simultaneously dispute the efficacy of performing such an action. Lest we forget about you complaining at FAC4 about something which was only done to the article based on something you said at FAC3. And now you're also complaining at the talk page about the moving of the 1UP.com source, which was only ever done as an attempt to address criticisms you made at FAC4. This is a never-ending cascade of self-contradiction. Also, your focusing and giving so much weight to a little bit of simple checkbox formatting is telling. You've been combative and edit warring from the get-go. All you're doing is confirming my suspicion that you're perpetuating an argument which I was never even party to.

Hi Czar, thanks for your note! The links were helpful; I added the project page to my watchlist and will check out the cleanup categories (I didn't even know that tool existed; thank you). Also, I don't think I ever said this, but thank you for teaching me how to use the sfn and harv templates, which I learned entirely by looking at your work while I was editing Schinas. I found that article from a help page request I saw, and got kind of hooked by the mystery of it all. I will take a crack at expanding the lead, too. I assume you've seen the peer review? If you have anything to add there it would be most welcome! BTW, I thought ANI was part of WikiProject Anarchism? :-) Thanks for reaching out! Levivich ( talk) 21:51, 6 January 2019 (UTC)
<ref>{{harvnb|...}}: "Quote."</ref>
and when should I use {{sfn|...|ps=: "Quote."}}
?<ref>
tags (footnote formatting) or trailing period. {{
sfn}} adds those latter two elements. In uncomplicated footnotes and when the article contains a separate bibliography, {{
sfn}} is the fastest way to cite a source+page. To avoid
this ref error, it's easier to construct your own footnote,
starting with {{
harvnb}} and adding elements than it is to struggle with shoving everything into {{
sfn}} modifiers. The error in this case came from {{
sfn|Kathimerini|2006|ps=abc}}
and {{
sfn|Kathimerini|2006|ps=xyz}}
having sharing the same (read: conflicting) ref name. Building custom citations with <ref>
tags avoids this collision. Check out
the template's documentation for more cases/options, though I think the format used in Schinas should cover most of your editing, depending on your footnote/notes style.

You posted in my talk page some days ago! I´m very interested in help in the wiki project anarchism but I don´t know where to start.
Since most of the time I edit and try to improve the navigational boxes templates related to anarchism, socialism and libertarianism, I have some ideas to get the portal more friendly, like I try to do with the navboxes, I don´t know where I can show and discuss these ideas. But in the articles itself I don´t know what can I do since most of my knoledge on anarchism still comes mainly from the Afaq. I´m opened to suggestions on what I can do to the project!
ps: I´ve found very usefull this wikipedia guideline Wikipedia:Anarchism referencing guidelines specily the section of reliable publishers (Anarchy Archives, Anti-State.com, Libcom and Infoshop News).

Hi there!
So I've been a bit preoccupied with school over the last few months, and was for a while burnt out with editing. But I've recently got back into it and I'm trying to bring the No Russian article up to FA status. It's a rather dense article for a single level, but as I'm sure your aware, it deserves to have a dense and detailed article. Right now I was just wondering if there was anything you could do to help, like a mock peer review. Nothing major, I just wanted to know what else I can do. Right now I still have to add more information about the initial reception from both gaming journalists and major new publications, the British parliament debating the content of the level, more analysis from research papers about the impact of No Russian, and the possible connection to the 2011 Norway Attacks. Thank you! Famous Hobo ( talk) 23:13, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
To Whom This May Concern,
I understand that Grace Ueng's wikipedia page was deleted because it did not meet the general notability guideline, but even after doing a lot of research into what that means, I still do not understand why exactly the page was taken down. She had MIT Tech Review ( https://www.technologyreview.com/s/411472/grace-w-ueng-87/), Audrey Magazine ( http://kore.am/audreys-women-of-influence-grace-ueng-founder-and-ceo-of-savvy-marketing-group-with-web-exclusives/), Inc Magazine ( https://www.inc.com/magazine/20091001/ceo-passions-outdoor-cycling.html), and other secondary sources.
I was wondering if there's any way to restore her wiki. If there is no clear way, could I please at least have the content in Grace Ueng's deleted wikipedia page sent to my email? Thank you so much!

Hello! I have reverted the redirect on Othello (2009 video game). It seems like a game that passes GNG just by a touch thanks to it's Switch release. Has 2 reviews from reliable sources in WP:VG/RS in Nintendo Life and Nintendo World Report, with 2 situational in Cubed3 and Gaming Age. None of these are deemed unreliable, thus making the game pass WP:GNG. Not the most notable game from Arc System Works, for sure, and the article state is pretty bad, but it is enough notable by wiki standards I guess. If you think that is not enough then I would advise opening an AfD for a fair discussion. Regards, Jovanmilic97 ( talk) 13:11, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

I already explained this on the noticeboard, where I thought the issue was settled - I added the Authority control to articles to see if they have wkidata already - this happened, for instance, on the page for the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Some pages do not have wikidata already, so I add it to the bottem of the page so that it will be ready if and when wikidata is created.

I'm a bit baffled as to why you restored literally everything I changed. Firstly, I don't know why you didn't just format the dates yourself into mdy if you're going to force them to be in mdy with the df= parameter in references. The end result is exactly the same, and it saves needing to have those in the first place. Secondly, if there is only one author of an article, you don't need the 1 suffixes in first= and last=; I trust you know this? It gives the appearance of a newbie who just used an automatic reference template. Thirdly, we don't need the venue= parameter for studio albums. That's for live albums, and do you honestly think they recorded plastic objects at a venue rather than a studio? Doubt it. Finally, talking about something that hasn't happened yet as an excuse to remove a notability template doesn't really fly in all other circumstances. As I said in my second edit summary, I'm pretty sure admins should know better than to do this—this looks like an inexperienced editor who's pissed somebody tagged an article they made. If there is a concern, it shouldn't be removed until the issue is fixed and I'm quite sure a statement alone about something you think will happen but that hasn't actually happened yet doesn't fix it. If you're annoyed by my edit or me putting it there then you shouldn't be taking it personally, and that doesn't mean you should undo literally everything I did. Thanks.

|df=
. If you change the date format and spacing in a drive-by edit, yes, you should expect to be reverted. As for the other
cosmetic changes, as I already wrote, they make no material change and are not needed. My revert rests well within
BRD, but yours
does not. As for taking it personally, start by re-reading your own post.

Sabre Wulf is an action-adventure game by Ultimate Play the Game, initially released for the ZX Spectrum home computer in 1984. The player navigates the pith-helmeted Sabreman through a 2D jungle maze while collecting amulet pieces to bypass the guardian at its exit. The player does not receive explicit guidance on how to play and is left to decipher the game's objectives through trial and error. The developers had finished Sabre Wulf's sequels in advance of its release but—in keeping with their penchant for secrecy—chose to withhold them until later that year. Ultimate hired outside developers to port Sabre Wulf to other computing platforms: the BBC Micro, Commodore 64, and Amstrad CPC. Sabre Wulf was a bestseller and a financial success. Several gaming publications recommended the game, and Crash magazine readers named it the "Best Maze Game" of 1984. Game journalists rate it among the Spectrum's best releases.
In Greek: Η ανοιχτή ιδεολογική αντιπαράθεση κατέληξε σε αιµατοχυσία, η οποία έφτασε σε αληθινό πογκρόµ κατά τα ∆εκεµβριανά. Αν και από τους 84 εκτελεσµένους από το ΚΚΕ αρχειοµαρξιστές και τροτσκιστές της περιόδου 1944-1945, οι περισσότεροι έχασαν τη ζωή τους στην πρωτεύουσα, οι κατοχικές δολοφονίες (µέχρι τον Νοέµβριο του 1944) είναι λιγότερες από δέκα
In English:The open ideological confrontation resulted in a bloodshed, which reached a pongrom in Decemvriana. Although of the 84 archeoMarxists and Trotskyites executed by the KKE in 1944-1945, most of them died in the capital, occupying assassinations (until November 1944) are fewer than ten.

Hello! I saw you worked on 1:54, and was wondering if you cared to weigh in on the ongoing AfD discussion for Turf War (Banksy), or make any improvements to the article. If you're not interested, no prob! Happy editing --- Another Believer ( Talk) 21:40, 11 March 2019 (UTC)
Hello again. I hope you are doing well. I finally worked on another video game article and I actually really enjoyed it. A majority of my projects have been focused on television and music-related articles and lists, but it is nice to do something different (even if it is still within the entertainment category). I also wanted to say that I think all of your work on anarchism-related articles is very interesting. I must admit that I know very little to nothing on the subject so it is interesting to read about. Aoba47 ( talk) 18:57, 15 March 2019 (UTC)
Hi Czar. I am struggling to find RS that outlines the main branches of contemporary anarchism. Unfortunately, I haven't found any that doesnt give me a headache after reading it for 5-6 minutes. This one is not useful. McLaughlin's book either is not suitable. I feel that the contemporary anarchism section in the article of Anarchism is underdeveloped and I 'd like to see it getting better.

I just made the necessary adjustments that you found issues with. Hopefully its satisfactory to GA criteria. Blue Pumpkin Pie ( talk) 15:12, 21 March 2019 (UTC)
I saw that you created the articles for Metamorphabet and Windosill back in 2015. I have created the article for Vectorpark itself. If you want to check it out and improve it you can. AdrianWikiEditor ( talk) 14:43, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
Hi I've got some questions regarding the decision to merge Social centres in the United Kingdom with Autonomous social center which you appear to have been involved with.
Regarding your justifications here.
To sum up, you have merged one page with another but trashed almost all of its information. That doesn't work for me. How to find a way forward? I suggest reinstating the page and cutting out the self-linked social centres which i can only presume is the bit that actually offended you? This is basically your solution 1, which you could have already done. Considering I'm still tidying up your destructive edits here as well, I am starting to wonder why i need to clear your mess up again. Anyway, i've started the new page here.

I am trying to write simple facts about Ukranian anarchists (gang rapes of women) and i can't. Can you help me? Maybe something i don't understand. /info/en/?search=Talk:Nestor_Makhno#Rapes_of_the_anarchist_army_(in_english)
I hope we can add some things from historians that some anarchists(or nationalists) don't like. We have 2019 after all.
Thanx in advance. Αντικαθεστωτικός ( talk) 00:56, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
Hello czar! I hope you are well. Will you please take a look at Draft:BIOS (film)? I need you to move the draft to BIOS (film) or merge into Bios (film). Whatever you think is the best option and I think the best title is to keep it in Capital title per IMDb link. Thanks. -- Captain Assassin! « T ♦ C ♦ G» 18:59, 6 April 2019 (UTC)
Would you like to work together on improving Tetris? I copied the entire article on my sandbox and just making improvements. Reason why i copied it into my sandbox is because there's a chance that a lot of unverifiable content will have to be removed and don't want to cause any edit wars with those who are fans of the article.That and my busy schedule causes me to make small edits at a time. I'm starting very basic, adding proper citation to the references and re-organizing the sections. I think it would be an amazing feat if we make it to GA status, but at the moment i'm aiming for B-class. Blue Pumpkin Pie ( talk) 02:41, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Bosque (programming language). Since you had some involvement with the Bosque (programming language) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. TJRC ( talk) 17:10, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
