I saw your DYK article at DYK. The GLAM/WIKI conference opens at the British Museum on the 26th/27th so an appearance of your article would be good then. Is this OK with you? Were you aware of the BM project or is this a great coincidence? Victuallers ( talk) 10:39, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello, just a little observation: if you are making a new version of 2010_Stockholm_bombings_map_EN.gif, you could move the 1st explosion star to the other side of the junction. If we want to be precise, the explosion happened on the South East corner of Olof Palmes gata and Drottninggatan, when the star is now in the North West corner. (You can verify this on Google Maps street view. Current satellite coordinates are exactly right spot when viewed on Google Maps) I don't know if you meant to place it there, or just randomly put the star at the junction. The second explosion star is in the exact right spot, however. -- hydrox ( talk) 18:29, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Haven't submitted 3RR yet and on second thought I think that I'll extend the same courtesy that other editors have extended to issues such as these and provide friendly warning. GoetheFromm ( talk) 13:22, 17 December 2010 (UTC) So friendly reminder instead. By the way the reasoning for the warning is that: your edits on the 15 of December (and the 16) were largely manual reverts of others. Next, your edit summaries acknowledge that your edits were reverts. Last, your reverts totaled more than 3, despite consecutive edits. Therefore, I suspected 3RR violation or at least 'hitting' 3RR (DougWeller's terminology). Also, the frenetic quality of your suggestions at talk pages (and comments directed to you) lead me to believe that a warning is an appropriate approach to prevent hitting 3RR and/edit war. Again friendly reminder. GoetheFromm ( talk) 13:22, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Prioryman, allow me to explain my last revert. I absolutely agreed with you that there were false statements on the page. However, I disagreed with the wholesale manner in which you removed the majority of writing without editing. So, I reverted your edit, to be able to work with the original. I then immediately made revisions and wanted to save the changes, but unfortunately, my internet went and only was restored today due to weather. So, frustratingly, I could not put the revisions after my revert of your work. So very sorry. You will see that I put those changes (which I worked hard to do) today (12/20/10). Trust me, I was so worried that you would think that I was trying to keep false information, which I am certainly not interested in doing. Btw, next time you have such a concern, feel free to contact me on my talk page. GoetheFromm ( talk) 19:19, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
The Dab'n facilities for "Ellingham Hall" are a mess that you're not going to be able to fix w/o admin help. (By the way, you are not the only one whose misunderstandings have contributed to the problems.) I think i'll be able to manage the fix, but you can help me with one clarification.
I think it's clear that there are two places, each being referred to (where the respective contexts make the meaning clear) as "Ellingham Hall". And so far, each of them is being treated as worthy of a WP article. The combination of those two circumstances is what requires a Dab page. That leaves unclear one final factor:
"Is there a primary topic?" As discussed at the target section of that link, "There are no absolute rules for determining" the answer. It is quite feasible to assume, for the time being and w/o prejudice to a future change, that the answer is "no", and make a change later if it seems appropriate, but if you would care to review that section and offer an opinion based on your knowledge of the subject matter, i would quite comfortably act on your opinion (without prejudice to a future contrary change!), since making the right decision now might save effort and leave a clearer record in the edit histories of the relevant pages.
You could productively respond by adding to this section, since i'll watch changes to this talk page for a while. Thanks for your attention.

Hi Prioryman,
I guess it's the only solution. My one suggestion would be that I would ask for the votes of only editors who are uninvolved in Savage-deletion debates elsewhere, to try to minimize the spillover of those debates here. I'm disappointed that these editors brought their war to us in the first place, and the last thing we need is to invite all of the partisans on this on either side into a new fray based on their preconceived notions about Savage. Your conversation with Rob was pretty disheartening; I want to give his views a fair hearing, but since he's posted 10+ times without citing a single piece of policy, it's hard to see how there's any room for rational discussion there. You might also consult long-time DYKers such as User:Gatoclass and User:Materialscientist directly on the issue and see if they can offer a neutral way to proceed, or ask those who originally expressed concern about this one way or another (like OC, Crisco, BarkingMoon, etc.) to comment, though be sure to avoid canvassing only those of one side. I am going to try to stay out of it after this, though--I still owe myself that wikibreak, and this has been postponing it badly! Cheers, Khazar ( talk) 13:04, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

An article is not properly categorized just because it has a "category" transcluded by its stub template; the stub categories are temporary maintenance categories which are removed from an article once its expanded beyond stub length. So an article is correctly tagged as being uncategorized if it doesn't have any real, permanent content categories on it, even if it has 50 stub templates. Bearcat ( talk) 07:39, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi. I have been looking into the reference problem. It had nothing to do with reformatting. ;-) One was erased during an edit and two references were added by me but I forgot to cite them in the text. See my answer on the corresp. page.
I have added some information to the page because I am not happy with the chronology and it gave the impression that the British were all in to bomb Watten, which is the least we can say. They needed human intelligence, pictures, aerial photos to decide. The rocket was an unknown weapon at that time and most scientists doubt of its existence. It is very well explained in the recent BBC documentary on operation crossbow.
The main remaining issue IMHO is the list of raids on Watten. There are some discrepancies with the "official" list available on the official website: http://www.leblockhaus.com/modulosite2/board-of-25-bombings-gb.htm In my opinion, your list is more reliable because it is sourced but still, people may not be happy with it.

Hello Prioryman, I'm contacting you about the evidence you posted for the Cirt/Jayen Arbitration case. The scope for this case has been restricted solely to the conduct of Cirt and Jayen466; as such, any evidence presented should focus on the actions of those two editors. The only exception would be detailing actions of other users that provide necessary background information (such as "Cirt/Jayen did this because Other Editor was harassing them in this manner as shown in diff diff diff"). I don't see that this is what you were attempting to assert here, however. If you believe that DC needs to be sanctioned for these actions, then the relevant evidence should be provided at the Manipulation of BLP's case, and removed from Cirt/Jayen.

I saw your DYK article at DYK. The GLAM/WIKI conference opens at the British Museum on the 26th/27th so an appearance of your article would be good then. Is this OK with you? Were you aware of the BM project or is this a great coincidence? Victuallers ( talk) 10:39, 20 November 2010 (UTC)

Hello, just a little observation: if you are making a new version of 2010_Stockholm_bombings_map_EN.gif, you could move the 1st explosion star to the other side of the junction. If we want to be precise, the explosion happened on the South East corner of Olof Palmes gata and Drottninggatan, when the star is now in the North West corner. (You can verify this on Google Maps street view. Current satellite coordinates are exactly right spot when viewed on Google Maps) I don't know if you meant to place it there, or just randomly put the star at the junction. The second explosion star is in the exact right spot, however. -- hydrox ( talk) 18:29, 16 December 2010 (UTC)

Haven't submitted 3RR yet and on second thought I think that I'll extend the same courtesy that other editors have extended to issues such as these and provide friendly warning. GoetheFromm ( talk) 13:22, 17 December 2010 (UTC) So friendly reminder instead. By the way the reasoning for the warning is that: your edits on the 15 of December (and the 16) were largely manual reverts of others. Next, your edit summaries acknowledge that your edits were reverts. Last, your reverts totaled more than 3, despite consecutive edits. Therefore, I suspected 3RR violation or at least 'hitting' 3RR (DougWeller's terminology). Also, the frenetic quality of your suggestions at talk pages (and comments directed to you) lead me to believe that a warning is an appropriate approach to prevent hitting 3RR and/edit war. Again friendly reminder. GoetheFromm ( talk) 13:22, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

Prioryman, allow me to explain my last revert. I absolutely agreed with you that there were false statements on the page. However, I disagreed with the wholesale manner in which you removed the majority of writing without editing. So, I reverted your edit, to be able to work with the original. I then immediately made revisions and wanted to save the changes, but unfortunately, my internet went and only was restored today due to weather. So, frustratingly, I could not put the revisions after my revert of your work. So very sorry. You will see that I put those changes (which I worked hard to do) today (12/20/10). Trust me, I was so worried that you would think that I was trying to keep false information, which I am certainly not interested in doing. Btw, next time you have such a concern, feel free to contact me on my talk page. GoetheFromm ( talk) 19:19, 20 December 2010 (UTC)
The Dab'n facilities for "Ellingham Hall" are a mess that you're not going to be able to fix w/o admin help. (By the way, you are not the only one whose misunderstandings have contributed to the problems.) I think i'll be able to manage the fix, but you can help me with one clarification.
I think it's clear that there are two places, each being referred to (where the respective contexts make the meaning clear) as "Ellingham Hall". And so far, each of them is being treated as worthy of a WP article. The combination of those two circumstances is what requires a Dab page. That leaves unclear one final factor:
"Is there a primary topic?" As discussed at the target section of that link, "There are no absolute rules for determining" the answer. It is quite feasible to assume, for the time being and w/o prejudice to a future change, that the answer is "no", and make a change later if it seems appropriate, but if you would care to review that section and offer an opinion based on your knowledge of the subject matter, i would quite comfortably act on your opinion (without prejudice to a future contrary change!), since making the right decision now might save effort and leave a clearer record in the edit histories of the relevant pages.
You could productively respond by adding to this section, since i'll watch changes to this talk page for a while. Thanks for your attention.

Hi Prioryman,
I guess it's the only solution. My one suggestion would be that I would ask for the votes of only editors who are uninvolved in Savage-deletion debates elsewhere, to try to minimize the spillover of those debates here. I'm disappointed that these editors brought their war to us in the first place, and the last thing we need is to invite all of the partisans on this on either side into a new fray based on their preconceived notions about Savage. Your conversation with Rob was pretty disheartening; I want to give his views a fair hearing, but since he's posted 10+ times without citing a single piece of policy, it's hard to see how there's any room for rational discussion there. You might also consult long-time DYKers such as User:Gatoclass and User:Materialscientist directly on the issue and see if they can offer a neutral way to proceed, or ask those who originally expressed concern about this one way or another (like OC, Crisco, BarkingMoon, etc.) to comment, though be sure to avoid canvassing only those of one side. I am going to try to stay out of it after this, though--I still owe myself that wikibreak, and this has been postponing it badly! Cheers, Khazar ( talk) 13:04, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

An article is not properly categorized just because it has a "category" transcluded by its stub template; the stub categories are temporary maintenance categories which are removed from an article once its expanded beyond stub length.

Hi. I have been looking into the reference problem. It had nothing to do with reformatting. ;-) One was erased during an edit and two references were added by me but I forgot to cite them in the text. See my answer on the corresp. page.
I have added some information to the page because I am not happy with the chronology and it gave the impression that the British were all in to bomb Watten, which is the least we can say. They needed human intelligence, pictures, aerial photos to decide. The rocket was an unknown weapon at that time and most scientists doubt of its existence. It is very well explained in the recent BBC documentary on operation crossbow.
The main remaining issue IMHO is the list of raids on Watten. There are some discrepancies with the "official" list available on the official website: http://www.leblockhaus.com/modulosite2/board-of-25-bombings-gb.htm In my opinion, your list is more reliable because it is sourced but still, people may not be happy with it.

Hello Prioryman, I'm contacting you about the evidence you posted for the Cirt/Jayen Arbitration case. The scope for this case has been restricted solely to the conduct of Cirt and Jayen466; as such, any evidence presented should focus on the actions of those two editors. The only exception would be detailing actions of other users that provide necessary background information (such as "Cirt/Jayen did this because Other Editor was harassing them in this manner as shown in diff diff diff"). I don't see that this is what you were attempting to assert here, however. If you believe that DC needs to be sanctioned for these actions, then the relevant evidence should be provided at the Manipulation of BLP's case, and removed from Cirt/Jayen.
