On 21 April 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Alepotrypa cave, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that archaeologists believe the cultural memory of the burial site at the Alepotrypa cave may have become associated with the mythological entrance to Hades? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Alepotrypa cave. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Alepotrypa cave), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding Armenia, Azerbaijan, or related conflicts, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions....Just wanted to let you know about this. The stuff about the map may be understood by some editors as genocide denial due to what RSs have said about the term Eastern Anatolia. This has been explained on the talk page. Étienne Dolet ( talk) 04:49, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
may be understood by some editors as genocide denial due to what RSs have said about the term Eastern Anatolia— I have been looking for sources to support your POV since you haven't posted any (after multiple requests) and I can't find any. I'm sorry, but that is more than I am required to do by any policy. Are you saying using the term Eastern Anatolia is genocide denial? Please post WP:RS for this to help me update the map, or drop it. Seraphim System ( talk) 05:09, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

"edit warring while someone is expanding a section is extremely irritating btw"--sure, but so is introducing really contentious material in a BLP based on RT (seriously, RT???). After that series of edits based on RT and YouTube videos (where a few quotes are easily pulled out of context), I am not convinced that the sources you cite say what you make them say, particularly "rejecting the values of equal rights", which does not automatically follow from the first part of that sentence. I am going to revert, with a ping to MShabazz and to C. W. Gilmore, and y'all can try to hash this out on the talk page where, I suggest, you try to find accessible sources so they can be judged, and/or you cite extensively from the source material so it's clear you're not synthesizing or orginal-researching. Thank you. Drmies ( talk) 14:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi Seraphim - could you possibly take a look at/intervene in the Julius Evola article?
Looking at the talk page you seemed to have the most rational point of view out of anyone, and there is a group of editors hell bent on retaining the current form of the article via an unacademic source. I don't really have the experience or clout to deal with it.

I reread all the suggested Wikipedia pages about article creation. I tuned up my refs and citations. I asked
"a question on the Articles for creation help desk".. I understand the respond that I got from worldbruce, but it just doesn't seem to fit with the world of American Zen. This is a small world with an internal reputational system different than that espoused by worldbruce. I reviewed a number of related Zen master Wikipedia pages:
They seem to have a comparable level of notability and sources.
Is there no place for American Zen in Wikipedia?
Hello,
I was wondering why you declined the Save the Water (STW) Wikipedia page submission. If you could provide specific reasons, that would be great!

Hey,
Thanks for your feedback. I have added new reference links. They should suffice. The j's again for your time. The Irish Artist is well known internationally, but especially in Ireland.

Guild of Copy Editors June 2018 News
Welcome to the June 2018 GOCE newsletter, in which you will find Guild updates since the February edition. Progress continues to be made on the copyediting backlog, which has been reduced to 7 months and reached a new all-time low. Requests continue to be handled efficiently this year, with 272 completed by the end of May (an average completion time of 10.5 days). Fewer than 10% of these waited longer than 20 days, and the longest wait time was 29 days. Wikipedia in general, and the Guild in particular, experienced a deep loss with the death on 20 March of Corinne. Corinne (a GOCE coordinator since 1 July 2016) was a tireless aide on the requests page, and her peerless copyediting is a part of innumerable GAs and FAs. Her good cheer, courtesy and tact are very much missed. March drive: The goal was to remove June, July and August 2017 from our backlog and all February 2018 Requests (a total of 219 articles). This drive was an outstanding success, and by the end of the month all but eight of these articles were cleared. Of the 33 editors who signed up, 19 recorded 277 copy edits (425,758 words). April blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 15 through 21 April, focusing on Requests and the last eight articles tagged in August 2017. At the end of the week there were only 17 pending requests, with none older than 17 days. Of the nine editors who signed up, eight editors completed 22 copy edits (62,412 words). May drive: We set out to remove September, October and November 2017 from our backlog and all April 2018 Requests (a total of 298 articles). There was great success this month with the backlog more than halved from 1,449 articles at the beginning of the month to a record low of 716 articles. Officially, of the 20 who signed up, 15 editors recorded 151 copy edits (248,813 words). Coordinator elections: It's election time again. Nominations for Guild coordinators (who will serve a six-month term for the second half of 2018) have begun, and will close at 23:59 UTC on 15 June. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are eligible, and self-nominations are encouraged. Voting will take place between 00:01 UTC on 16 June and 23:59 UTC on 30 June. June blitz: Stay tuned for this one-week copy-editing blitz, which will take place in mid-June. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators: Corinne, Jonesey95, Miniapolis, Reidgreg and Tdslk. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from
our mailing list.

Hello. Yesterday I made an edit to his page where it says....2018 He finished with a .301 batting average, I reverted it to .299 but you didn't accept that. The sources used didn't update his last game and Baseball Reference is reliable and up to the minute with stats. Go to Baseball Reference and it has his 2018 final batting average which is .299. If you agree with me, use Baseball Reference as a source, not the sources that are there now. Also MLB and ESPN also have him at .299. Thank you for your time and have a good week. 2601:581:8500:949C:58C:356:57CA:693D ( talk) 23:12, 24 June 2018 (UTC) Was done today.

I've asked the other editor to add in better links instead of blanking the section if they have issues. Louis' views on this are well known and so the section should not be blanked if you do not like the source. Find better sources instead and work together is all I asked. C. W.

Please carefully read this information:
The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding Armenia, Azerbaijan, or related conflicts, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.
Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics. This means uninvolved administrators can impose sanctions for edits relating to the topic that do not adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, our standards of behavior, or relevant policies. Administrators may impose sanctions such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks. This message is to notify you that sanctions are authorised for the topic you are editing. Before continuing to edit this topic, please familiarise yourself with the discretionary sanctions system. Don't hesitate to contact me or another editor if you have any questions....Just wanted to let you know about this. The stuff about the map may be understood by some editors as genocide denial due to what RSs have said about the term Eastern Anatolia. This has been explained on the talk page. Étienne Dolet ( talk) 04:49, 6 May 2018 (UTC)
may be understood by some editors as genocide denial due to what RSs have said about the term Eastern Anatolia— I have been looking for sources to support your POV since you haven't posted any (after multiple requests) and I can't find any. I'm sorry, but that is more than I am required to do by any policy. Are you saying using the term Eastern Anatolia is genocide denial? Please post WP:RS for this to help me update the map, or drop it. Seraphim System ( talk) 05:09, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

"edit warring while someone is expanding a section is extremely irritating btw"--sure, but so is introducing really contentious material in a BLP based on RT (seriously, RT???). After that series of edits based on RT and YouTube videos (where a few quotes are easily pulled out of context), I am not convinced that the sources you cite say what you make them say, particularly "rejecting the values of equal rights", which does not automatically follow from the first part of that sentence. I am going to revert, with a ping to MShabazz and to C. W. Gilmore, and y'all can try to hash this out on the talk page where, I suggest, you try to find accessible sources so they can be judged, and/or you cite extensively from the source material so it's clear you're not synthesizing or orginal-researching. Thank you. Drmies ( talk) 14:21, 6 May 2018 (UTC)

Hi Seraphim - could you possibly take a look at/intervene in the Julius Evola article?
Looking at the talk page you seemed to have the most rational point of view out of anyone, and there is a group of editors hell bent on retaining the current form of the article via an unacademic source. I don't really have the experience or clout to deal with it.

On 18 May 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Oleg Vinogradov, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Oleg Vinogradov was the first Soviet ballet master to invite Western choreographers like Maurice Béjart to stage works for the Kirov Ballet? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Oleg Vinogradov. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Oleg Vinogradov), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I reread all the suggested Wikipedia pages about article creation. I tuned up my refs and citations. I asked
"a question on the Articles for creation help desk".. I understand the respond that I got from worldbruce, but it just doesn't seem to fit with the world of American Zen. This is a small world with an internal reputational system different than that espoused by worldbruce. I reviewed a number of related Zen master Wikipedia pages:
They seem to have a comparable level of notability and sources.
Is there no place for American Zen in Wikipedia?
Hello,
I was wondering why you declined the Save the Water (STW) Wikipedia page submission. If you could provide specific reasons, that would be great!

Hey,
Thanks for your feedback. I have added new reference links. They should suffice. The j's again for your time. The Irish Artist is well known internationally, but especially in Ireland.
Thanks
Guild of Copy Editors June 2018 News
Welcome to the June 2018 GOCE newsletter, in which you will find Guild updates since the February edition. Progress continues to be made on the copyediting backlog, which has been reduced to 7 months and reached a new all-time low. Requests continue to be handled efficiently this year, with 272 completed by the end of May (an average completion time of 10.5 days). Fewer than 10% of these waited longer than 20 days, and the longest wait time was 29 days. Wikipedia in general, and the Guild in particular, experienced a deep loss with the death on 20 March of Corinne. Corinne (a GOCE coordinator since 1 July 2016) was a tireless aide on the requests page, and her peerless copyediting is a part of innumerable GAs and FAs. Her good cheer, courtesy and tact are very much missed. March drive: The goal was to remove June, July and August 2017 from our backlog and all February 2018 Requests (a total of 219 articles). This drive was an outstanding success, and by the end of the month all but eight of these articles were cleared. Of the 33 editors who signed up, 19 recorded 277 copy edits (425,758 words). April blitz: This one-week copy-editing blitz ran from 15 through 21 April, focusing on Requests and the last eight articles tagged in August 2017. At the end of the week there were only 17 pending requests, with none older than 17 days. Of the nine editors who signed up, eight editors completed 22 copy edits (62,412 words). May drive: We set out to remove September, October and November 2017 from our backlog and all April 2018 Requests (a total of 298 articles). There was great success this month with the backlog more than halved from 1,449 articles at the beginning of the month to a record low of 716 articles. Officially, of the 20 who signed up, 15 editors recorded 151 copy edits (248,813 words). Coordinator elections: It's election time again. Nominations for Guild coordinators (who will serve a six-month term for the second half of 2018) have begun, and will close at 23:59 UTC on 15 June. All Wikipedia editors in good standing are eligible, and self-nominations are encouraged. Voting will take place between 00:01 UTC on 16 June and 23:59 UTC on 30 June. June blitz: Stay tuned for this one-week copy-editing blitz, which will take place in mid-June. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators: Corinne, Jonesey95, Miniapolis, Reidgreg and Tdslk. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from
our mailing list.

Hello. Yesterday I made an edit to his page where it says....2018 He finished with a .301 batting average, I reverted it to .299 but you didn't accept that. The sources used didn't update his last game and Baseball Reference is reliable and up to the minute with stats. Go to Baseball Reference and it has his 2018 final batting average which is .299. If you agree with me, use Baseball Reference as a source, not the sources that are there now. Also MLB and ESPN also have him at .299. Thank you for your time and have a good week. 2601:581:8500:949C:58C:356:57CA:693D ( talk) 23:12, 24 June 2018 (UTC) Was done today.
