(It is here.)
Hi GoingBatty. So, I don't think I like this bot, or whatever it is (if it's not a bot, what is it? If it's just a semi-automated human assistance tool, it comes under WP:MEATBOT pr WP:ASSISTED or something like that it seems, which it looks like is treated much like a bot, if I'm reading things right?)
So, anyway, if T298352 is a bot, there's a whole process to get these deployed it looks like. I'm not familiar with it, but I see that there's a page Wikipedia:Bots which includes links other pages such as Wikipedia:Bot policy and so on, and there's a good deal to digest here. I'm not up to speed on any of this, but WP:BOTISSUE says to contact the "bot operator" first, which I guess you're not (its User:BrownHairedGirl and maybe others?), but you wrote it so maybe you'd be a good starting point? If not, let me know, thanks.
So... I'm willing to be convinced that it's a good thing, but that might be for a larger discussion (not sure). I made my points at User talk:BrownHairedGirl, if you want to see them. On that basis, I'm requesting here that you disable the thing until we can figure out the next steps, here. If you don't want to, OK, then the question is how can we work together to make sure everything is done correctly and smoothly here. One thing I'd like to know first off is, what is a quick overview of the process that leads from conception to deployment of these bots (or whatever they are), and this one in particular? If I'm reading it right, there would have been some discussion about it, I think? Could you point me to it? Thanks for your time. Herostratus ( talk) 12:05, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

BrownHairedGirl's work inspired me to ask the developers of

Hello, I've been trying to decline this item which does not pass WP:NMUSIC and which has twice been moved to main by a new account. But... keep gettng 'page unresponsve' messages after clicking on 'review' and then on decline. At that point nothing happens and the page wll not reload either. I've done a reboot etc. to no avail; everything else seems to be working OK – I can edit and review other pages it seems, but not this one. Any ideas? Orrr... if you feel it appropriate could you decline? No worries if not – I'm sure someone will do so hopefully before it gets moved again. Cheers. Eagleash ( talk) 00:51, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, You declined an article in October because of a problem with sources (which I think I fixed) and I needed to disclose a conflict of interest (which I've since added, I believe). We had a nice chat but I was pulled away to other work. I now see that maybe the article has been declined, or maybe not - since it still says it's being reviewed on the bottom of the page. Can you tell me if all is okay and/or what next to do? Thank you so much. This is the article: /info/en/?search=Draft:Geoffrey_L._Cohen CBGBcomm ( talk) 22:17, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

18:55, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Thank you, GoingBatty for your attempts to help. I have one more question -- if it is an easy one for you: how do I add names to the 'block E-mails' section of preferences. I tried a name in the box, but it did not take. Then, on retry, the "Save" box was inactive. I did manage to change my username though, prior to now giving up on "Axonometric Projection". [To paraphrase a great politician -- at least by today's standards, "They won't have LemChastain to kick around anymore." My new name should follow. I guess it is safer to not put your real name on Wiki-pedia; especially as it may remain there forever. "30" ( talk) Ljc 23:09, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
"A trick to get rid of me, he wondered. What if I can't reverse it, and not be able to get any more help?" Cross fingers, knock on wood, salt over shoulder, and push on. It was as simple as using the 'Enter' instead of the 'Tab' (which I must have used on prior tries). Reversal was effected simply by clicking on the 'X' for user to be restored. I will next be looking into 'barnstars', but for now, give yourself a Distelfink. And, thanks again. ( talk) Ljc 16:03, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Dear GoingBatty, I've been told to not make any personal statements on a user's Talk page -- certainly not issue Distelfinks; so I may have to go back an edit out that initial "Thank you", and the subsequent, "And thanks again." But, Barnstars, apparently, are impersonal. I must be on a few Watch(out!) lists, but hope you get to see this; unlike the other intended Distelfink recipient. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lemchastain ( talk • contribs) 03:59, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks so much for the quick reply to my Help Desk inquiry. But the link you provided ( [2]) simply brings up the redirect notice, nothing editable. I can of course pull up the revision history and look at, and even edit, previous incarnations of the article, but working on an old version would be like replacing parts and souping up a vehicle that's abandoned in a junkyard.

In Special:Diff/1068583045, the generic "Editors" author name was necessary in the citation Editors (1938), "Notatki: Z topologii", Mathesis Polska (in Polish), 11 (1–2): 26–28, in order to make the harv link Editors (1938) link correctly. Your bot broke the harv link. It should not be breaking things in order to make cleanups that are, in this case, not actually cleanups. I do not actually know how the authors are recorded in the original Polish for this citation, because I know the citation only through a 2004 English translation, available at JSTOR 4145019. That translation gives the authors as "Hugo Steinhaus and others"; an intelligent human, trying to fix this citation, would possibly have used that instead of "Editors". Your bot is obviously not intelligent enough to do that, but more importantly, it is not intelligent enough to recognize when it is making citations worse instead of better. Maybe it should leave well enough alone in cases like this. — David Eppstein ( talk) 08:12, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for answering my question about how to eventually publish my page, The Actors' Group. I will try to declare my COI. In addition to being the president of the theater, I am its historian, so the logical person to do this, and frankly, no one else will really take the time to do. The photo of myself is a screen shot of my photo as every time I tried to upload it I couldn't. I'm not sure why. I mean, it's my head shot, and, I have the permission of a number of other members of our theater to use their head shots. So at this point I'm experimenting with putting images, but I'm perplexed about why things are being accepted. I'm aware of the COI and how it will impact the writing, so given that, I will be mindful of being as truthful as possible. But there are certain things that involve me that are pure fact. I mean, I did found the theater and have always been a part of it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Enemoto ( talk • contribs) 21:13, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi GoingBatty,
You recently commented on this AfC Draft: Make a Difference Foundation that For example, the "Funding" section has no independent reliable sources..
As you said "for example" - which of the other sources do you believe to be not independent or reliable, and why?
I am reviewing the Funding section so that further references can be made. I hope that I can better understand your other points so that I can improve on the AfC.
Kind regards, D.C. at MAD Foundation Inc. ( talk) 01:24, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hi GoingBatty,
It is within Wikipedia guidelines to include references which are not independent. Anecdotally, I tested this out by going to Facebook's Wikipedia page. The first few references are all from Facebook's website itself. Where is the difference here? I am not attacking your point, I'm just wanting to clarify why the references - if used in a declarative and impartial way - cannot be included?
Kind regards, D.C. at MAD Foundation Inc. ( talk) 04:44, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

I know a lot about Kessler Foundation and that some of the information that is cited now is incorrect, so I was trying to update it. I am in the disability field and I know what is being done at Kessler Foundation. It has grown considerably since the past 10 years that the wikipedia page has been updated. For example, under the PROGRAM section, those 2 programs are no longer happening there. Plus, there is a new Center for Autism Research that is being launched this month.

<GoingBatty> Unfortunately I do not understand the ins and outs of Wikipedia editing. I am a novice at it. But, I am a researcher and ally of the disability and rehabilitation field, attend conferences and presentations concerning Kessler Foundation and other industry nonprofits like Dana and Christopher Reeve Foundation, University of New Hampshire Disability division, etc. I read all press releases via EurekAlert for these types of organizations, which is why I am up to date on changes in the field.

Hello. As you're currently listed as a host at the Teahouse, I wanted to make sure you're aware of the imminent rollout of new Growth Team Features which every new account will be getting by default. Each users will soon see a new 'Homepage' tab next to their User page. It contains two main elements which might impact on your involvement - and you'd be welcome to get involved and help out directly with one of them.
To spread the load on our current list of around 65 mentors, I'm reaching out to ask if you'd like to help out and sign up as one? The workload is relatively small; User Panini! reports receiving four questions a month, on average, all of which were simple ones of the type we already get at the Teahouse, whilst I've had just one in the last 3 weeks. To view a list of every question asked of all mentors over the last 14 days, click here.
If becoming a mentor and being available to help new users on their first few days here interests you - just as have done at the Teahouse in the past - then please consider signing up at Growth Team features/Mentor list. But please only do so if you are genuinely willing to be available to help. Existing users can already 'opt-in' to seeing the Newcomer Homepage features via their Preferences.

Hi GoingBatty. As I pointed out in my revert summary, headline= is a requirement in Template:Track listing per its documentation (this was introduced in 2020). MOS:TABLECAPTION applies too, as it is a table, and there was a Wikipedia-wide consensus at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Accessibility/Archive 15#RfC on table captions that also took place in 2020. It was raised there that in instances like this it just repeats information from the section header and is clear even to visually impaired readers who use screen readers, but it was still found to be a requirement and that redundancy should ultimately not cancel out its inclusion. I disagreed at the time but there was consensus from a great number of users so I'm following that. Ss 112 10:04, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi GoingBatty!
I am the web manager for Poster House and we recently added more information to our Wiki page, including history of the building and the museum's mission statement, as well as our Collection. This seems to be a fairly standard and approved set-up for a museum's Wiki (for example, see the Jewish Museum's Wiki) and I was wondering why you removed most of the text that we added.
Thank you for helping us understand, and have a nice day!

With
this edit, BattyBot removed the trailing comma from |postscript=,
.
I recognize that removing trailing commas from parameter values is desirable in most cases (indeed, the same edit correctly changed the mistaken
https://citer.toolforge.org/citer.fcgi -generated |first=Heather,,
to |first=Heather
).
However, removing the comma from |postscript=,
defeats the purpose of the postscript
display option.
I have temporarily put a ,
HTML entity code in place, although this is undesirable as per the postscript
instructions: Additional text or templates beyond the terminating punctuation may generate an error message.
Since I have ".mw-parser-output span.cs1-maint {display: inline;}" included in my common.css file, it does indeed display a maintenance message. It also puts it in
Category:CS1 maint: postscript.
Please fix this problem. Also, if you know of any satisfactory work-arounds to alleviate this problem until you resolve the problem, please let me know. Peaceray ( talk) 18:06, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

Dear Mentor, Could you please help me with the submission of the new page for sculptor David Phillips? It was rejected again, this time apparently for reasons tied to the “quality and reliability of sources.” Since you had suggested that I add new references in the education section, I added references of Cranbrook Academy, the New England Conservatory of Music, State of Utah, and also the Christian Science Monitor, the Boston Globe, and the Art Net Magazine, all reliable secondary sources of good reputation and totally independent from the well-known artist David Phillips. Besides, in addition to the articles above in the Boston Globe and other publications, I added a few more references on his artwork, such as the Mel Lederman Memorial Foundation (private website), Landscape Notes (sourced in partnership with MIT and Harvard), and some blogs that perhaps are not strong enough references, in which case we could remove them, of course. On another note, I did not include an article from the AP News Agency that mentions David Phillips as the sculptor retained by the Boston Museum of Science to design and build the future Leonard Nimoy memorial with a 20-foot sculpture shaped like Mr. Spock’s split-fingered hand, because I thought this is just an ongoing project for now (Please see article from a CBS station here: https://www.wkyt.com/2021/03/26/live-long-in-sculpture-20-foot-art-planned-for-spock-symbol/) Likewise, I omitted the publication from the Animal League of Boston regarding the work they commissioned David Phillips for (see reference here: http://www.arlboston.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Donor-and-artist-profile-release_15-5-22.pdf). This sculpture is already referenced in Wikidata and I could add a picture to that page if appropriate ( https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q109272102). Other existing references include an article from the Boston Herald that I omitted since access is reserved to subscriber.

Hi GoingBatty, My article Monroe Grisman was moved to draftspace last year and as you had done some minor editing on it before it had been moved, I am hoping you could review and provide any feedback on how it should be improved. Based on the notes from the editor who moved it, I have cleaned it up and added better verifiable citations. I believe I have reliable citations that met the requirements, but always still learning. I would like to submit this draft for review once it feels like it will have the best chance of approval. Thank you! Ddab ( talk) 21:37, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

I have made serial zoom photographic review of the face of the famous Mona Lisa painting as seen by millions in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The eyebrows on the face of the beautiful Mona Lisa are clearly missing. They had not been painted in the 'genuine' painting present in the Louvre Museum as attributed authentically to Leonardo Da Vinci, around 1503 -1516 AD. I am not aware that attention has been focused on this particular important anatomic anomaly by art world experts and devotees (historians, critics, traders, collectors, film producers, commentators and teachers alike) to the best of my knowledge.
As a forensic pathologist I look forward to contributions of interested people keen on this subject to review and to develop a worthy wide discussion on it. -- Kjpath ( talk) 10:10, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

The following paragraphs are exactly copied from the above publication by Pascal Cotte:(up to end of Biography paragraph) The L.A.M. technique is based on images obtained by the multispectral camera, recording the light reflected on 13 wavelengths (filters). It generates over 1,650 images, capturing the interaction between light and matter at all depths of the paint-layer. The technique makes it possible to reconstitute the genesis of a work, its chronology and the different phases that compose i Pascal Cotte’s scientific discoveries rewrite the history of a mythical work that has become the emblem of Western Art. They lead to the hypothesis that the Mona Lisa was painted in four main stages: 1/ Leonardo painted a 1st portrait, slightly larger than today – perhaps the draft for the 2nd portrait. Nothing enables us to say who is represented. The posture seems identical to the portrait as it appears today. The hands placed on the arm-rest and the sleeves are similar but slightly larger. 2/ Leonardo effaced this draft and painted a 2nd portrait. The discovery of a head-dress made of pearls, draperies and hair-pins suggests the subject may have been sacred or mythological – perhaps a Goddess, Saint or Madonna. 3/ Above this Leonardo then painted a 3rd portrait, with a hairstyle and dress typical of Florentine fashion from the years 1502-06. It is suggested that this is the veritable portrait of Lisa Gherardini seen by Florentines and described by Vasari. 4/ Finally, Leonardo transformed this work into the Mona Lisa we know today, altering the posture, turning the head and eyes towards the viewer, moving the shoulders more to the right and adding a veil around the head and upper body to mask the former hairstyle and dress.
Summary The book reveals that the Mona Lisa is not Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, and that her identity has been mistaken for 500 years. Using a new scientific imaging technique (L.A.M.), Cotte unveils over 150 discoveries found beneath all the repainting. He establishes the chronology of the various paint-layers and reveals the authentic portrait of Lisa Gherardini, of which he proposes a realistic reconstitution. She has more feminine face and looks to her right, with a different posture; there is no dark veil, while her clothes (gamure) and hairstyle (foggia alla francese) relect Florentine fashion between 1502-07. Her dress has pretty tied ribbons (nastri) and openings (inestrelle) that reveal her chemise underneath. Her hair is held in place by a net (velo) and embroidery around her forehead. This was the portrait of a dignitary’s wife, typical of the Florentine upper-classes. The extraordinary discovery reconciles the various existing theories about the history of this Symbol of Western Art. Cotte goes even further, helping us discover two other projects hidden beneath deeper repainting. He reveals an impressive head-dress made from draperies, hair-pins and pearls (probably for a Madonna or Saint); and the forms and outline of another, larger portrait. The book enables readers to superimpose use four moveable transfer sheets, featuring the surrounds of the discoveries, on the images so as to chart the four stages of the work’s evolution. The reader can thus conduct his own investigation. Why did Leonardo transform the portrait of Lisa Gherardini into the Mona Lisa? The answer, suggests Cotte, lies with the story of Giuliano de’ Medici – the very man Leonardo himself, speaking at the end of his life, referred to as the portrait’s commissioner. Presentation The Mona Lisa is one of mankind’s great mysteries. With over 9.7 million admirers per year, it is the most mythical painting of all time. Thanks to an extraordinary scientific imagery technique (L.A.M.), this book takes us on a journey into the heart of the paint-layer of the world’s most famous picture and reveals secrets that have remained hidden for 500 years. Mona Lisa is not actually Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, but a portrait that masks others. Leonardo da Vinci did not paint one, but four portraits, super-imposed on one another. More than 150 discoveries help us rediscover the painting’s genesis, with Cotte reconstituting the true portrait of Lisa Gherardini – whose face, hairstyle and costume were radically different from those we now see in the Louvre. The book shatters the myth and alters our vision of the work. It is a giant leap forward in art knowledge and art history. Pascal Cotte, who digitized the Mona Lisa at the Louvre with his multispectral camera in October 2004, now presents the fruit of ten years’ research. Biography Pascal Cotte is an optical engineer specializing in photography and image signal analysis. He is the inventor of the L.A.M. scientific imagery technique and the first high-definition multispectral camera, which he has used to digitize several works by Leonardo da Vinci: the Louvre’s Mona Lisa, in October 2004; The Lady with an Ermine in Cracov, in September 2007; La Bella Principessa in 2008; and La Belle Ferronnière in 2011. All told, Cotte has digitized over 2,000 works in public and private collections, and authored several studies scientific about famous paintings. His book Lumière on The Lady with an Ermine reconstitutes the three phases of that painting’s creation, including one version without an animal. Since 2007 Cotte’s exhibition The Secrets of Mona Lisa, produced by Australia’s Grande Exhibitions, has been seen by over 8 million visitors on all five continents
The now famous engineer/photographer, Pascal Cotte, has carried research commissioned on behalf of the Louvre Museum, apparently since 2004 onward. He used by that time what was considered sophisticated optical scanning and array devices with enhanced number of filters covering a wide range up to thirteen filters from ultraviolet to infrared with powerful light homogenous light source. His camera was capable of 240 mega pixels (nowadays for example Samsung mobile company has on the market mobile phone equipped with 200 megapixel and in 2026 apparently it is scheduled to launch a mobile phone with capability of 560 mega pixels).
His scientific study still could not at all satisfy the question of the missing eyebrows and thus failed to answer the question of the missing eyebrows. When Pascal Cotte was directly asked about the eyebrows’ issue specifically his reply was really not convincing neither from a profoundly scientific finding nor from speculative answer to justify the absence of the eyebrows.
He claimed (only himself with no substantiation by a anyone else) to have observed (identified) in the hidden layering study of one single hair on the left eyebrow and that was that. He did not see a thing that remotely could look like a hair on the right side where the right eyebrow would anatomically have been. He further went on to speculate that the reason for the missing eyebrows could be attributed to repetitive restoration works carried on the painting since the supposed last work by Leonardo in 1516 on it or more logically after his death around ten to fifteen years later from the time he began working on it. There is no knowledge that the work had continued on it by Leonardo when it had become under the ownership of the King of France. There is no record in the internet of restoration work on the Mona Lisa painting since it had become the property of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. And Pascal Cotte did not tell whether such restoration work had been carried in the Louvre itself at least in the last two centuries and till the commencement of his study.
The eyebrows were not certainly the main concern at all or even the centre piece of the Louvre/Pascal study as the interest was on the finding the hidden story of the artist’s techniques of the real layers under the visible surface painting of the Mona Lisa. To this end he succeeded in shedding new light on the drawing of the left-hand fingers, the famous smile of the Mona Lisa and the supposed faded blanket. Mr, Cotte went further to publish work on his studies on other works that are well documented. His work received support from Prof. Martin Kemp of Oxford University whom he subsequently collaborated with him on other work: Kemp M., Cotte P., La Bella Principessa. The Story of the New Masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci, London, 2010
Pascal Cotte in his attempted explanation on the missing eyelashes he seems to come across dismissing the circulated alternative explanation that the eyebrows could have been plucked off by the lady herself. . This shaving off or plucking off the eyebrows was attributed by those advocating social explanation to trends and norms of Italian women in early 16th century.
It is difficult to find if this social reasoning could be substantiated. It is not hard on Art Historians and Art Curators possibly to simply undertake comparison on the presence or absence of eyebrows in Leonardo's earlier paintings or the work of Leonardo's contemporary painters in the Renaissance who have equally painted women faces in various art works executed by them. This study if done objectively could either strengthen the social explanation or treat is as weak at best.
Also, it is possible to see if the missing eyebrows formed a theme in Leonardo's subsequent post Mona Lisa work or the works of his contemporaries and those who followed him of other European Artists within a period in which social trends would gradually wane off if again the social explanation is to be taken seriously.
If Leonardo was truly reflecting in the Mona Lisa painting some accepted social trend of that time, he would have been equally acutely aware of knowing he had pupils in his art studio working to follow on his footsteps. There is a second copy of the Lisa painting that is housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid (to avoid referring to it as Mona Lisa). The Art historians and art experts of Leonardo’s works apparently favour pupil artists like Salaï or Francesco Melzi.
These followers were Leonardo’s most trusted pupils. Unlike other pupils, who apparently had been judged by students of Art paintings, created their own artistic styles out of their apprentices with Leonardo. Therefore, the verdict on the second Lisa painting by either of these two artists has been based on their adherence to Leonardo’s style.
According to published conclusion points of an interesting commissioned study by the Louvre Museum but conducted in the Prado museum in Madrid where comparison has been made between the French Mona Lisa and its Spanish counterpart copy, that the ‘technical analyses have demonstrated that the Prado’s version was executed at the same time as the original, supporting the hypothesis of a workshop “duplicate” produced at the same time and with direct access to the gradual process of creation of Leonardo’s original work.’
Yet one can make clearly evidence of the presence of eyebrows on the face of the Spanish Lisa copy, even if these were painted somewhat thinly. Giorgio Vasari in his 16th century account (stated that faint evidence of eyebrows and eyelashes were seen by him on the Lisa's painting. The question is which copy had Vasari seen. Was the copy with the evidence of the thin but visible eyebrows the real copy painted by the master Leonardo? Was Leonardo in some peculiar mental state or mood that he intentionally opted to deprive the beautiful face of her full beauty? but yet he ensured his pupil would grant this essential anatomical human facial feature on the second copy.
The medical world as sampled above focussed when it comes to the missing eyebrows on the health of the thyroid gland. Hypothyroidism, underactive and under functioning thyroid gland, would lead to hair loss. One way to explain the missing eyebrows is to consider them lost due to medical condition, such as Hypothyroidism. Therefore, condition like Peripartum Thyroiditis (which means inflammation of the thyroid gland around the time of delivery and shortly after in a pregnancy) and post-partum Hypothyroidism (which means development of underactive thyroid gland post- delivery of the baby in a pregnancy) were thought of to explain facial features of Mona Lisa.
Another medical explanation that had been seen in the literature is published in the Clinical and Experimental Dermatology Journal with the title
The Mona Lisa: an example of frontal fibrosing alopecia masquerading as Renaissance fashion? and written by Campbell, V and McKenna, K.
In summary the medical community has thankfully attempted to offer pathology related explanation for the missing eyebrows, the sociologists provided another explanation and the engineering research through the work of Pascal Cotte speculated but very likely weakly and most probably unconvincingly that engineer Cotte really has spotted the trace evidence, manifested by one hair in the area where the left eyebrow was supposed to have been painted and nothing on the right side according to engineer Cottee. The topic needs, no doubt, greater depth of studying with clear unbiased objectivity that is detached from personal leaning and importantly free of Museums' influence

Thanks for making this fix. I noticed the Telegraph when I got around to yesterday's Backlinks, but I probably wouldn't have spotted the Tribune. Can I safely leave Australian newspaper fixes to the bot? The ones I fix are

Hello -- Mohamed A Bangura ( talk) 10:17, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
The BattyBot change [7], now reverted, caused a "no inner hatnotes detected" error on Mathematics. Presumably BattyBot didn't like the hatnote group containing a non-hatnote, but an empty hatnote group was worse. I'll clean up the article's hatnotes but you might want to take a look at this.

(It is here.)
Hi GoingBatty. So, I don't think I like this bot, or whatever it is (if it's not a bot, what is it? If it's just a semi-automated human assistance tool, it comes under WP:MEATBOT pr WP:ASSISTED or something like that it seems, which it looks like is treated much like a bot, if I'm reading things right?)
So, anyway, if T298352 is a bot, there's a whole process to get these deployed it looks like. I'm not familiar with it, but I see that there's a page Wikipedia:Bots which includes links other pages such as Wikipedia:Bot policy and so on, and there's a good deal to digest here. I'm not up to speed on any of this, but WP:BOTISSUE says to contact the "bot operator" first, which I guess you're not (its User:BrownHairedGirl and maybe others?), but you wrote it so maybe you'd be a good starting point? If not, let me know, thanks.
So... I'm willing to be convinced that it's a good thing, but that might be for a larger discussion (not sure). I made my points at User talk:BrownHairedGirl, if you want to see them. On that basis, I'm requesting here that you disable the thing until we can figure out the next steps, here. If you don't want to, OK, then the question is how can we work together to make sure everything is done correctly and smoothly here. One thing I'd like to know first off is, what is a quick overview of the process that leads from conception to deployment of these bots (or whatever they are), and this one in particular? If I'm reading it right, there would have been some discussion about it, I think? Could you point me to it? Thanks for your time. Herostratus ( talk) 12:05, 29 December 2021 (UTC)

BrownHairedGirl's work inspired me to ask the developers of

Hello, I've been trying to decline this item which does not pass WP:NMUSIC and which has twice been moved to main by a new account. But... keep gettng 'page unresponsve' messages after clicking on 'review' and then on decline. At that point nothing happens and the page wll not reload either. I've done a reboot etc. to no avail; everything else seems to be working OK – I can edit and review other pages it seems, but not this one. Any ideas? Orrr... if you feel it appropriate could you decline? No worries if not – I'm sure someone will do so hopefully before it gets moved again. Cheers. Eagleash ( talk) 00:51, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, You declined an article in October because of a problem with sources (which I think I fixed) and I needed to disclose a conflict of interest (which I've since added, I believe). We had a nice chat but I was pulled away to other work. I now see that maybe the article has been declined, or maybe not - since it still says it's being reviewed on the bottom of the page. Can you tell me if all is okay and/or what next to do? Thank you so much. This is the article: /info/en/?search=Draft:Geoffrey_L._Cohen CBGBcomm ( talk) 22:17, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Hey! In your latest reply to a question on the help desk, I can't tell if you were genuinely trying to give a helpful response or making a joke. Not accusing of you being unhelpful, it's just that in the computer community, turning something "off and then back on" is a semi-joke because it seems to solve everything. ― Blaze Wolf TalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:45, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

I'm an amateur editor, and you are experienced. And I take positive feedback from you and will continue to use it. But you are right, there is a lot going on on the wiki, and it is gratifying to me that I feel like I am in court and I have to answer to a lot of people who are defending it. It's beautiful for me because I talk a lot and I got interested in this kind of work. May I have many experiences with you dear ones and with you. I hope this article ends with your help, friends, so that I can enter into other projects soon.-- Karestoonegoli ( talk) 17:57, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

18:55, 20 January 2022 (UTC)Thank you, GoingBatty for your attempts to help. I have one more question -- if it is an easy one for you: how do I add names to the 'block E-mails' section of preferences. I tried a name in the box, but it did not take. Then, on retry, the "Save" box was inactive. I did manage to change my username though, prior to now giving up on "Axonometric Projection". [To paraphrase a great politician -- at least by today's standards, "They won't have LemChastain to kick around anymore." My new name should follow. I guess it is safer to not put your real name on Wiki-pedia; especially as it may remain there forever. "30" ( talk) Ljc 23:09, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
"A trick to get rid of me, he wondered. What if I can't reverse it, and not be able to get any more help?" Cross fingers, knock on wood, salt over shoulder, and push on. It was as simple as using the 'Enter' instead of the 'Tab' (which I must have used on prior tries). Reversal was effected simply by clicking on the 'X' for user to be restored. I will next be looking into 'barnstars', but for now, give yourself a Distelfink. And, thanks again. ( talk) Ljc 16:03, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Dear GoingBatty, I've been told to not make any personal statements on a user's Talk page -- certainly not issue Distelfinks; so I may have to go back an edit out that initial "Thank you", and the subsequent, "And thanks again." But, Barnstars, apparently, are impersonal. I must be on a few Watch(out!) lists, but hope you get to see this; unlike the other intended Distelfink recipient. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lemchastain ( talk • contribs) 03:59, 22 January 2022 (UTC)
Dear GoingBatty, Well, a certain editor that is getting a lot of 'get well soon' wishes on its Talk page told me that comments are only for improving the 'Article' part. But, if I could thank you, I would do it again for the quick reply. ( talk) Ljc 04:21, 22 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks so much for the quick reply to my Help Desk inquiry. But the link you provided ( [2]) simply brings up the redirect notice, nothing editable. I can of course pull up the revision history and look at, and even edit, previous incarnations of the article, but working on an old version would be like replacing parts and souping up a vehicle that's abandoned in a junkyard. How do I proceed with the tinkering and then request that the restored car be, as it were, hauled out of salvage? -- 2603:6081:8004:DD5:51C:8F86:ED2F:527E ( talk) 00:22, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

The work that you do is inspiring to me (which means it is inspiring to others).
My area of interest is women in technology, supply chain, fashion, technology, American muscle cars, stock car racing, privacy, more, and the history of those. I found your bot (@BattyBot) on Elizabeth Jocelyn "Jake" Feinler's page and had to reach out to you. What interests me most is finding out from her if "Jake" was a name that was helpful to her career because it was a masculine nickname...
Anywho, that's all for now.

In Special:Diff/1068583045, the generic "Editors" author name was necessary in the citation Editors (1938), "Notatki: Z topologii", Mathesis Polska (in Polish), 11 (1–2): 26–28, in order to make the harv link Editors (1938) link correctly. Your bot broke the harv link. It should not be breaking things in order to make cleanups that are, in this case, not actually cleanups. I do not actually know how the authors are recorded in the original Polish for this citation, because I know the citation only through a 2004 English translation, available at JSTOR 4145019. That translation gives the authors as "Hugo Steinhaus and others"; an intelligent human, trying to fix this citation, would possibly have used that instead of "Editors". Your bot is obviously not intelligent enough to do that, but more importantly, it is not intelligent enough to recognize when it is making citations worse instead of better. Maybe it should leave well enough alone in cases like this. — David Eppstein ( talk) 08:12, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for answering my question about how to eventually publish my page, The Actors' Group. I will try to declare my COI. In addition to being the president of the theater, I am its historian, so the logical person to do this, and frankly, no one else will really take the time to do. The photo of myself is a screen shot of my photo as every time I tried to upload it I couldn't. I'm not sure why. I mean, it's my head shot, and, I have the permission of a number of other members of our theater to use their head shots. So at this point I'm experimenting with putting images, but I'm perplexed about why things are being accepted. I'm aware of the COI and how it will impact the writing, so given that, I will be mindful of being as truthful as possible. But there are certain things that involve me that are pure fact. I mean, I did found the theater and have always been a part of it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Enemoto ( talk • contribs) 21:13, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi GoingBatty,
You recently commented on this AfC Draft: Make a Difference Foundation that For example, the "Funding" section has no independent reliable sources..
As you said "for example" - which of the other sources do you believe to be not independent or reliable, and why?
I am reviewing the Funding section so that further references can be made. I hope that I can better understand your other points so that I can improve on the AfC.
Kind regards, D.C. at MAD Foundation Inc. ( talk) 01:24, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hi GoingBatty,
It is within Wikipedia guidelines to include references which are not independent. Anecdotally, I tested this out by going to Facebook's Wikipedia page. The first few references are all from Facebook's website itself. Where is the difference here? I am not attacking your point, I'm just wanting to clarify why the references - if used in a declarative and impartial way - cannot be included?
Kind regards, D.C. at MAD Foundation Inc. ( talk) 04:44, 14 February 2022 (UTC)

GoingBatty, sorry for the mixup. I am not getting paid for these changes. I know a lot about Kessler Foundation and that some of the information that is cited now is incorrect, so I was trying to update it. I am in the disability field and I know what is being done at Kessler Foundation. It has grown considerably since the past 10 years that the wikipedia page has been updated. For example, under the PROGRAM section, those 2 programs are no longer happening there. Plus, there is a new Center for Autism Research that is being launched this month.

Hello. As you're currently listed as a host at the Teahouse, I wanted to make sure you're aware of the imminent rollout of new Growth Team Features which every new account will be getting by default. Each users will soon see a new 'Homepage' tab next to their User page. It contains two main elements which might impact on your involvement - and you'd be welcome to get involved and help out directly with one of them.
To spread the load on our current list of around 65 mentors, I'm reaching out to ask if you'd like to help out and sign up as one? The workload is relatively small; User Panini! reports receiving four questions a month, on average, all of which were simple ones of the type we already get at the Teahouse, whilst I've had just one in the last 3 weeks. To view a list of every question asked of all mentors over the last 14 days, click here.
If becoming a mentor and being available to help new users on their first few days here interests you - just as have done at the Teahouse in the past - then please consider signing up at Growth Team features/Mentor list. But please only do so if you are genuinely willing to be available to help. Existing users can already 'opt-in' to seeing the Newcomer Homepage features via their Preferences.

Hi GoingBatty. As I pointed out in my revert summary, headline= is a requirement in Template:Track listing per its documentation (this was introduced in 2020). MOS:TABLECAPTION applies too, as it is a table, and there was a Wikipedia-wide consensus at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Accessibility/Archive 15#RfC on table captions that also took place in 2020. It was raised there that in instances like this it just repeats information from the section header and is clear even to visually impaired readers who use screen readers, but it was still found to be a requirement and that redundancy should ultimately not cancel out its inclusion. I disagreed at the time but there was consensus from a great number of users so I'm following that. Ss 112 10:04, 25 March 2022 (UTC)

With
this edit, BattyBot removed the trailing comma from |postscript=,
.
I recognize that removing trailing commas from parameter values is desirable in most cases (indeed, the same edit correctly changed the mistaken
https://citer.toolforge.org/citer.fcgi -generated |first=Heather,,
to |first=Heather
).
However, removing the comma from |postscript=,
defeats the purpose of the postscript
display option.
I have temporarily put a ,
HTML entity code in place, although this is undesirable as per the postscript
instructions: Additional text or templates beyond the terminating punctuation may generate an error message.
Since I have ".mw-parser-output span.cs1-maint {display: inline;}" included in my common.css file, it does indeed display a maintenance message. It also puts it in
Category:CS1 maint: postscript.

Dear Mentor, Could you please help me with the submission of the new page for sculptor David Phillips? It was rejected again, this time apparently for reasons tied to the “quality and reliability of sources.” Since you had suggested that I add new references in the education section, I added references of Cranbrook Academy, the New England Conservatory of Music, State of Utah, and also the Christian Science Monitor, the Boston Globe, and the Art Net Magazine, all reliable secondary sources of good reputation and totally independent from the well-known artist David Phillips. Besides, in addition to the articles above in the Boston Globe and other publications, I added a few more references on his artwork, such as the Mel Lederman Memorial Foundation (private website), Landscape Notes (sourced in partnership with MIT and Harvard), and some blogs that perhaps are not strong enough references, in which case we could remove them, of course. On another note, I did not include an article from the AP News Agency that mentions David Phillips as the sculptor retained by the Boston Museum of Science to design and build the future Leonard Nimoy memorial with a 20-foot sculpture shaped like Mr. Spock’s split-fingered hand, because I thought this is just an ongoing project for now (Please see article from a CBS station here: https://www.wkyt.com/2021/03/26/live-long-in-sculpture-20-foot-art-planned-for-spock-symbol/) Likewise, I omitted the publication from the Animal League of Boston regarding the work they commissioned David Phillips for (see reference here: http://www.arlboston.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Donor-and-artist-profile-release_15-5-22.pdf). This sculpture is already referenced in Wikidata and I could add a picture to that page if appropriate ( https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q109272102). Other existing references include an article from the Boston Herald that I omitted since access is reserved to subscriber.

Based on the notes from the editor who moved it, I have cleaned it up and added better verifiable citations. I believe I have reliable citations that met the requirements, but always still learning.

I have made serial zoom photographic review of the face of the famous Mona Lisa painting as seen by millions in the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. The eyebrows on the face of the beautiful Mona Lisa are clearly missing. They had not been painted in the 'genuine' painting present in the Louvre Museum as attributed authentically to Leonardo Da Vinci, around 1503 -1516 AD. I am not aware that attention has been focused on this particular important anatomic anomaly by art world experts and devotees (historians, critics, traders, collectors, film producers, commentators and teachers alike) to the best of my knowledge.
As a forensic pathologist I look forward to contributions of interested people keen on this subject to review and to develop a worthy wide discussion on it. -- Kjpath ( talk) 10:10, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

The following paragraphs are exactly copied from the above publication by Pascal Cotte:(up to end of Biography paragraph) The L.A.M. technique is based on images obtained by the multispectral camera, recording the light reflected on 13 wavelengths (filters). It generates over 1,650 images, capturing the interaction between light and matter at all depths of the paint-layer. The technique makes it possible to reconstitute the genesis of a work, its chronology and the different phases that compose i Pascal Cotte’s scientific discoveries rewrite the history of a mythical work that has become the emblem of Western Art. They lead to the hypothesis that the Mona Lisa was painted in four main stages: 1/ Leonardo painted a 1st portrait, slightly larger than today – perhaps the draft for the 2nd portrait. Nothing enables us to say who is represented. The posture seems identical to the portrait as it appears today. The hands placed on the arm-rest and the sleeves are similar but slightly larger. 2/ Leonardo effaced this draft and painted a 2nd portrait. The discovery of a head-dress made of pearls, draperies and hair-pins suggests the subject may have been sacred or mythological – perhaps a Goddess, Saint or Madonna. 3/ Above this Leonardo then painted a 3rd portrait, with a hairstyle and dress typical of Florentine fashion from the years 1502-06. It is suggested that this is the veritable portrait of Lisa Gherardini seen by Florentines and described by Vasari. 4/ Finally, Leonardo transformed this work into the Mona Lisa we know today, altering the posture, turning the head and eyes towards the viewer, moving the shoulders more to the right and adding a veil around the head and upper body to mask the former hairstyle and dress.
Summary The book reveals that the Mona Lisa is not Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, and that her identity has been mistaken for 500 years. Using a new scientific imaging technique (L.A.M.), Cotte unveils over 150 discoveries found beneath all the repainting. He establishes the chronology of the various paint-layers and reveals the authentic portrait of Lisa Gherardini, of which he proposes a realistic reconstitution. She has more feminine face and looks to her right, with a different posture; there is no dark veil, while her clothes (gamure) and hairstyle (foggia alla francese) relect Florentine fashion between 1502-07. Her dress has pretty tied ribbons (nastri) and openings (inestrelle) that reveal her chemise underneath. Her hair is held in place by a net (velo) and embroidery around her forehead. This was the portrait of a dignitary’s wife, typical of the Florentine upper-classes. The extraordinary discovery reconciles the various existing theories about the history of this Symbol of Western Art. Cotte goes even further, helping us discover two other projects hidden beneath deeper repainting. He reveals an impressive head-dress made from draperies, hair-pins and pearls (probably for a Madonna or Saint); and the forms and outline of another, larger portrait. The book enables readers to superimpose use four moveable transfer sheets, featuring the surrounds of the discoveries, on the images so as to chart the four stages of the work’s evolution. The reader can thus conduct his own investigation. Why did Leonardo transform the portrait of Lisa Gherardini into the Mona Lisa? The answer, suggests Cotte, lies with the story of Giuliano de’ Medici – the very man Leonardo himself, speaking at the end of his life, referred to as the portrait’s commissioner. Presentation The Mona Lisa is one of mankind’s great mysteries. With over 9.7 million admirers per year, it is the most mythical painting of all time. Thanks to an extraordinary scientific imagery technique (L.A.M.), this book takes us on a journey into the heart of the paint-layer of the world’s most famous picture and reveals secrets that have remained hidden for 500 years. Mona Lisa is not actually Lisa Gherardini, wife of Francesco del Giocondo, but a portrait that masks others. Leonardo da Vinci did not paint one, but four portraits, super-imposed on one another. More than 150 discoveries help us rediscover the painting’s genesis, with Cotte reconstituting the true portrait of Lisa Gherardini – whose face, hairstyle and costume were radically different from those we now see in the Louvre. The book shatters the myth and alters our vision of the work. It is a giant leap forward in art knowledge and art history. Pascal Cotte, who digitized the Mona Lisa at the Louvre with his multispectral camera in October 2004, now presents the fruit of ten years’ research. Biography Pascal Cotte is an optical engineer specializing in photography and image signal analysis. He is the inventor of the L.A.M. scientific imagery technique and the first high-definition multispectral camera, which he has used to digitize several works by Leonardo da Vinci: the Louvre’s Mona Lisa, in October 2004; The Lady with an Ermine in Cracov, in September 2007; La Bella Principessa in 2008; and La Belle Ferronnière in 2011. All told, Cotte has digitized over 2,000 works in public and private collections, and authored several studies scientific about famous paintings. His book Lumière on The Lady with an Ermine reconstitutes the three phases of that painting’s creation, including one version without an animal. Since 2007 Cotte’s exhibition The Secrets of Mona Lisa, produced by Australia’s Grande Exhibitions, has been seen by over 8 million visitors on all five continents
The now famous engineer/photographer, Pascal Cotte, has carried research commissioned on behalf of the Louvre Museum, apparently since 2004 onward. He used by that time what was considered sophisticated optical scanning and array devices with enhanced number of filters covering a wide range up to thirteen filters from ultraviolet to infrared with powerful light homogenous light source. His camera was capable of 240 mega pixels (nowadays for example Samsung mobile company has on the market mobile phone equipped with 200 megapixel and in 2026 apparently it is scheduled to launch a mobile phone with capability of 560 mega pixels).
His scientific study still could not at all satisfy the question of the missing eyebrows and thus failed to answer the question of the missing eyebrows. When Pascal Cotte was directly asked about the eyebrows’ issue specifically his reply was really not convincing neither from a profoundly scientific finding nor from speculative answer to justify the absence of the eyebrows.
He claimed (only himself with no substantiation by a anyone else) to have observed (identified) in the hidden layering study of one single hair on the left eyebrow and that was that. He did not see a thing that remotely could look like a hair on the right side where the right eyebrow would anatomically have been. He further went on to speculate that the reason for the missing eyebrows could be attributed to repetitive restoration works carried on the painting since the supposed last work by Leonardo in 1516 on it or more logically after his death around ten to fifteen years later from the time he began working on it. There is no knowledge that the work had continued on it by Leonardo when it had become under the ownership of the King of France. There is no record in the internet of restoration work on the Mona Lisa painting since it had become the property of the Louvre Museum in Paris, France. And Pascal Cotte did not tell whether such restoration work had been carried in the Louvre itself at least in the last two centuries and till the commencement of his study.
The eyebrows were not certainly the main concern at all or even the centre piece of the Louvre/Pascal study as the interest was on the finding the hidden story of the artist’s techniques of the real layers under the visible surface painting of the Mona Lisa. To this end he succeeded in shedding new light on the drawing of the left-hand fingers, the famous smile of the Mona Lisa and the supposed faded blanket. Mr, Cotte went further to publish work on his studies on other works that are well documented. His work received support from Prof. Martin Kemp of Oxford University whom he subsequently collaborated with him on other work: Kemp M., Cotte P., La Bella Principessa. The Story of the New Masterpiece by Leonardo da Vinci, London, 2010
Pascal Cotte in his attempted explanation on the missing eyelashes he seems to come across dismissing the circulated alternative explanation that the eyebrows could have been plucked off by the lady herself. . This shaving off or plucking off the eyebrows was attributed by those advocating social explanation to trends and norms of Italian women in early 16th century.
It is difficult to find if this social reasoning could be substantiated. It is not hard on Art Historians and Art Curators possibly to simply undertake comparison on the presence or absence of eyebrows in Leonardo's earlier paintings or the work of Leonardo's contemporary painters in the Renaissance who have equally painted women faces in various art works executed by them. This study if done objectively could either strengthen the social explanation or treat is as weak at best.
Also, it is possible to see if the missing eyebrows formed a theme in Leonardo's subsequent post Mona Lisa work or the works of his contemporaries and those who followed him of other European Artists within a period in which social trends would gradually wane off if again the social explanation is to be taken seriously.
If Leonardo was truly reflecting in the Mona Lisa painting some accepted social trend of that time, he would have been equally acutely aware of knowing he had pupils in his art studio working to follow on his footsteps. There is a second copy of the Lisa painting that is housed in the Prado Museum in Madrid (to avoid referring to it as Mona Lisa). The Art historians and art experts of Leonardo’s works apparently favour pupil artists like Salaï or Francesco Melzi.
These followers were Leonardo’s most trusted pupils. Unlike other pupils, who apparently had been judged by students of Art paintings, created their own artistic styles out of their apprentices with Leonardo. Therefore, the verdict on the second Lisa painting by either of these two artists has been based on their adherence to Leonardo’s style.
According to published conclusion points of an interesting commissioned study by the Louvre Museum but conducted in the Prado museum in Madrid where comparison has been made between the French Mona Lisa and its Spanish counterpart copy, that the ‘technical analyses have demonstrated that the Prado’s version was executed at the same time as the original, supporting the hypothesis of a workshop “duplicate” produced at the same time and with direct access to the gradual process of creation of Leonardo’s original work.’
Yet one can make clearly evidence of the presence of eyebrows on the face of the Spanish Lisa copy, even if these were painted somewhat thinly. Giorgio Vasari in his 16th century account (stated that faint evidence of eyebrows and eyelashes were seen by him on the Lisa's painting. The question is which copy had Vasari seen. Was the copy with the evidence of the thin but visible eyebrows the real copy painted by the master Leonardo? Was Leonardo in some peculiar mental state or mood that he intentionally opted to deprive the beautiful face of her full beauty? but yet he ensured his pupil would grant this essential anatomical human facial feature on the second copy.
The medical world as sampled above focussed when it comes to the missing eyebrows on the health of the thyroid gland. Hypothyroidism, underactive and under functioning thyroid gland, would lead to hair loss. One way to explain the missing eyebrows is to consider them lost due to medical condition, such as Hypothyroidism. Therefore, condition like Peripartum Thyroiditis (which means inflammation of the thyroid gland around the time of delivery and shortly after in a pregnancy) and post-partum Hypothyroidism (which means development of underactive thyroid gland post- delivery of the baby in a pregnancy) were thought of to explain facial features of Mona Lisa.
Another medical explanation that had been seen in the literature is published in the Clinical and Experimental Dermatology Journal with the title
The Mona Lisa: an example of frontal fibrosing alopecia masquerading as Renaissance fashion? and written by Campbell, V and McKenna, K.
In summary the medical community has thankfully attempted to offer pathology related explanation for the missing eyebrows, the sociologists provided another explanation and the engineering research through the work of Pascal Cotte speculated but very likely weakly and most probably unconvincingly that engineer Cotte really has spotted the trace evidence, manifested by one hair in the area where the left eyebrow was supposed to have been painted and nothing on the right side according to engineer Cottee. The topic needs, no doubt, greater depth of studying with clear unbiased objectivity that is detached from personal leaning and importantly free of Museums' influence

Hi GoingBatty, The draft submission I worked on, Draft:Monroe Grisman, was declined. As all the citations are verifiable and independent 3rd party, and published sources, with even some where the subject was the focus I am unclear why it was not approved as the reason stated is not detailed. As you had graciously looked at and tweaked this a bit, I am hoping you can help give me some insight/feedback/direction on how to improve this properly before submitting again.
