Sorry I've been busy on other things. I have yet to write up the documentation on the changes I have made. I'll do that sometime over the next 24 hours.
The original two unnamed parameters will still work in much the way as they did before, but I am going to leave them undocumented (and depreciate their use) as it will be better to use named parameters as they are more flexible. I have put in enough documentation to cover anyone who needs to add a new template until such time as I write up the documentation.
So I hope it will satisfy you for the moment. -- PBS ( talk) 13:42, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Of the recently added categories in Anastasius (Samaria), "clergy" strikes me as odd. He doesn't seem to have ever been a priest. Am I missing something? Dimadick ( talk) 09:55, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
I reverted your action on the ship that was built in Poland. The reason is, that I try to use two different systems: "Built in" and "Built at". For the schips by name you can find the country of building, the category by IMO number shows the shipyard. Combining will be double and there are a number of too strict rule-followers who will throw away one of the categories. I hope this way of working will survive. Experts work by IMO numbers and are interested in the yards. The gerenal publc is not very interested in the yards, only the country where a ship was built. -- Stunteltje ( talk) 17:50, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Categories must also be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you.

Hiya! I noticed that you have both Greek and German infoboxes on your profile. User:Vl.eu came onto the undeletion request forum requesting help with the article for Vicky Leandros. I left them some general information and recommended that they find a person who speaks their native language, since they have stated that their English isn't as strong as it could be. I'd like to say that they speak Greek or German since they listed the Greek and German websites for Leandros, although I'm somewhat suspecting that they're a Greek speaker. Nothing to back that up, though. In any case, would you be willing to try to converse with them in Greek and/or German to see if that's what they speak? I think that they mean well, but they would likely need to have things explained in their native language. I've tagged them with this post in the hopes that they'll come here, but you may need to go to their page. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 09:37, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey Place Clichy, you mentioned it's unnecessary to categorize Eastern Orthodox believers both by nationality and by jurisdiction: just by nationality should be enough. In fact I completely agree with you but it's a bit complex to realize. Just deleting the categories by jurisdiction is not an option because numerous of these articles are only in the jurisdiction category and not yet in the nationality category. So ideally we'd merge the categories by jurisdiction to the categories by nationality. But then the next problem is they do not always match. This is especially problematic for the Russian and Serbian jurisdiction after the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia fell apart. If you have an idea how to solve this, please go ahead.

Frankly, in this instance, yes. Just dropping out of the blue "christian palestinians face the same terrible oppression as their muslim brothers" is totally biased and out of place. This sentence is not only written as out of a propaganda piece, it's dropped as a complete non sequester and its 'source' is an opinion section of Al-jazeera.... seriously?
it's also quite ironic that the sentence was shoehorned in between statements about all the genocides, massacres and legal discrimination christians face in literally every other country in the middle east other than israel, perhaps the reason why the completely vague phrase "oppression" had to be used since the real details would have been too stark a contrast with the grim reality of neighbouring countries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:E348:5180:5871:5D04:FC53:EA08 ( talk) 09:48, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
Also, considering any 'oppression' palestinians may face from Israel is totally national in nature, it has nothing to do with the article at all.
You might as well had "Saudi/Egyptian/yemeni/syrian/iraqi/lebanese/libyan/qatari/etc christians face the same government oppression as their muslim brothers". I mean that oppression is often a lot more severe than anything you'll see in palestine, and it's as valid a statement.
Are you starting to see how colossally stupid that sentence is in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:E348:5180:5871:5D04:FC53:EA08 ( talk) 09:53, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Dear Place Clichy, You were correct to note that the claim of significance is present in the article. I see now that the bar is much lower than for Wikipedia:Notability, which I feel that neither it nor its French counterpart achieves at this point, absent significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. I tried, unsuccessfully, to remedy this problem by searching for anything written about the foundation in English from a reliable second or third-party source. (The French article cites a Parti de gauche website as its sole citation—probably not a reliable source and certainly not an indication of "significant coverage".) This led me to infer its non-notability. I'll look for your thoughts, here. Sincerely, User:HopsonRoad 01:52, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

I see that you restored some extremely substandard content to the encyclopaedia with this edit. In your summary you seemed confused as to why I had removed it. I did think that its total inadequacy was screamingly obvious to anyone who actually read it, but apparently not, so let me give you some reasons.
I removed it on 4 July, but it was restored by someone for no good reason. I removed it again, and now you've put it back for no good reason. I was planning to rewrite it, but as this content is fine by you, I won't bother.

Just for your information: The flag I removed was an earlier version, where the blue was far from correct, as you can see. And yes, I did take my concern to the author of the file, and they have made the current version. Actually I am not completely convinced that the new file is completely correct, either. I think the blue in the flag probably should be the same as the blue in the seal, but at least it is not conspicuously wrong now. Regards! -- T*U ( talk) 19:12, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BlackcurrantTea. I clicked on your contributions out of curiosity, and I noticed you're marking quite a few of your edits as minor, yet the ones I looked at aren't actually minor. Examples: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
It's an understandable mistake, and one I've made myself. The Wikipedia definition of minor is different to what most of us expect. I've reviewed Help:Minor edit many times, trying to decide if the changes I was making were minor. It helped me to think of a minor edit as a change that a reader is not that likely to notice (unless it's reverting obvious vandalism: this also counts as minor). Maybe it fixes a typo, or corrects the format of a reference without adding any new information. It doesn't change or add anything very noticeable to the page, and other editors are unlikely to dispute it.
I hope this helps. If you have any questions, you can reply to me here; I'll keep your talk page on my watchlist for a bit. Happy editing! BlackcurrantTea ( talk) 02:49, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
other editors are unlikely to dispute it, as as editors may dispute such things as the placing of a comma, sometimes rightfully so. In many years editing Wikipedia, I don't remember being challenged for misuse of the minor tag, although I have most certainly used it where I could not have, and the other way around.
To make up for the first diff, I'll add this navbox change; this change to a disambiguation page; and this change to an article. I don't see any of those as minor. BlackcurrantTea ( talk) 12:30, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

I've been thinking about your comments the other day about Syrian, Turkish, and Bulgarian Jews not being Sephardi. While I don't agree that most Syrians or Turks aren't Sephardi (not sure about Bulgarians), it does raise an interesting question. I wonder if these categories need to be reconsidered. Maybe being Ashkenazi/Mizrahi/Sephardi/etc. should be delinked from nationality categories. Jews from a particular nation may be Ashkenazi, Sephardi, or something else. Category:Hungarian Jews are classified as "Ashkenazi", but anecdotally, my Hungarian-Jewish friends are mostly Sephardi. Category:Dutch Jews are categorized with both Ashkenazi and Sephardi categories. Might it be more appropriate to have subcats for, say, Category:Dutch Sephardi Jews and Category:Dutch Ashkenazi Jews? Would it be more appropriate to have the categories as Category:Dutch people of Sephardi descent, etc.? I'm just not sure how useful it is to assume that an individual Jew or group of Jews is Ashkenazi/Sephardi/etc. based upon what country they are from.

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

diffused geographically but the category is called "by state" rather than something more generic such as "by location", "by place", "by first-level subdivision", "by state or territory" etc., I believe that subcategories for Washington D.C. and other territories are still expected to be found in the geographical category rather than outside of it.

), explicitly signalling that there's a difference in the membership. Plus if you want to be rigid, places like Oklahoma, Hawaii, or Alaska were territories for quite a long time before they became states, so there's already plenty of "territory" material in your precious "by state" categories.

In this particular day, I noticed that you supported a merge for "Members of the United States Congress of XXX descent" to "American people of XXX descent". For some of those discussions, however, the upmerge target that the nom suggested was for "American politicians of XXX descent" rather than the "people" cat. I'm referring specifically to the Taiwanese and Korean CFD discussions, who actually have "American politicians" categories with nontrivial numbers of members. I would like to confirm whether your supported target in those two instances are for the "American people" cats or the "American politicians" cats; I'd rather not make assumptions about what you think.

There's nothing intrinsically wrong with pipes and redirects. See, e.g. MOS:DABPIPE and the sections below. There's a particular problem in linking to the geographical areas covered by the WGSRPD codes, since their definition may not correspond exactly to the precise definition used in the nearest Wikipedia article. Leaving a redirect allows for an easier change if a better article becomes available.
Please read Wikipedia:PLANTS/WGSRPD and follow its advice. For example, I cannot find a plant that is endemic to Indian Punjab, so there is no need for the category Category:Flora of Punjab, India. The ridiculously long list of distribution categories at Dillenia pentagyna is against guidelines, and should be reduced to a few higher level categories. Peter coxhead ( talk) 08:46, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
At Category:Flora of Altai (region), you added Category:Geography of Altai Krai and Category:Geography of the Altai Republic. There are major problems in how to categorize geographical areas, in my experience, and this may be the best solution. However, WP:SUBCAT says "If logical membership of one category implies logical membership of a second (an is-a relationship), then the first category should be made a subcategory (directly or indirectly) of the second." But "Flora of Altai Krai + Altai Republic" is not a subcategory of either "Geography of Altai Krai" or "Geography of the Altai Republic". In terms of geography, the reverse is true; in terms of topic (flora vs. geography), there's no "is-a" relationship. Anyway, I leave this to your judgement.

Hi, I'm grateful that you're cleaning tags and making sure that they're warranted, but I wanted to mention to you that edit summaries like this diff are making a pretty objectional assumption. The page had the tag because she does migration studies, social inclusion work, and especially Afro-German studies, she's an advocate with affiliation groups for Black people in Germany, and she's been specifically described as a "migrant woman". I didn't just look at her face and decide she looks African, and it's pretty brutal -- and not in the spirit of WP:AGF -- to assume that's what I did.

Hello, Place Clichy,
Just a reminder that anytime you tag a page for deletion (CSD, PROD, AfD/CfD/TfD/etc), you should post a notice on the talk page of the page creator informing them that the page has been tagged for deletion. Otherwise, a page they created can be deleted and they have no idea what has happened! There are times when they can easily correct whatever problems exist that cause the page to be tagged.
The process is made easy when you use Twinkle which automatically posts a talk page notice whenever you tag a page for deletion once you set up your Twinkle Preferences. You can see Twinkle-initiated messages (above) which I have posted to your own talk page when a page you created has been tagged for deletion. I encourage you to use it. Thank you! Liz Read!

This is confusing members of the WP:AIRCRAFT who are trying to do the right thing but you keep reverting and emptying the categories. Would appreciate if you could explain what you are trying to do on the aircraft project talk page so we can move forward rather then continuing emptying categories and potential edit warring, thanks.

even just one UN member state") is you personal opinion. Is it shared by reliable sources? The difference between Israel and the State of Palestine is also that one is a UN member-state while the other is not (OK, it is an observer, but so is the Order of Malta) and that Palestine is also only a de jure state with a lack of actual control on its territory, especialy in terms of borders and security, which are key components of international recognition of statehood. You can't just mirror one situation to the other. Place Clichy ( talk) 16:48, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

I'm trying to categorise mediaeval rabbis. Many of them are in Category:Rabbis of Academy of Pumbedita, which is in Category:Babylonia, but the note on that - which you have recently editted - says "This category is for articles relating to Babylonia (18th century BC–539 BC)." I'm looking at Category:9th-century rabbis and the like. I know very little about the history of this period, and I'm hoping you know more than me. Can we call these people Babylonian, as many of the articles do, or if not, what? Rathfelder ( talk) 13:10, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
The Talmudic academies in Babylonia [...] were the center for Jewish scholarship and the development of Halakha from roughly 589 to 1038 CE [...] in what is called "Babylonia" in Jewish sources, at the time otherwise known as Asōristān (under the Sasanian Empire) or Iraq (under the Muslim caliphate until the 11th century). It is neither geopolitically, nor geographically identical with the ancient empires of Babylonia, since the Jewish focus of interest has to do with the Jewish religious academies, which were mainly situated in an area between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates and primarily between Pumbedita (modern Fallujah, a town west of Baghdad), and Sura, a town farther south down the Euphrates. The key work of these academies was the compilation of the Babylonian Talmud.

Hello, Place Clichy,
Recently, you tagged some categories for speedy deletion. However, you didn't post a notification on the talk page of the page creator. This is part of the deletion process and a content creator has the right to know that a page they created is headed towards deletion. I'm sure you would want to know. Most editors and admins do this using Twinkle, an editing tool that makes things very simple for editors. Once you set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator", then Twinkle will post these notification on your behalf and notify the page creator. Please do this in the future. Thank you.

The Dakotas were one territory as Dakota Territory prior to statehood. I am not sure anyone would think of them as a distinct divided region, and since Maine was at one time part of Massachusetts maybe they constitute in some way a divided region. However at one time there was one political unit that included both Dakotas and nothing else. New Mexico Territory at one point included Arizona, but I would not advocate New Mexico/Arizona as a divided region. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 11:23, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

In my view, you should definitely not have removed this category. These are specifically lawmakers who were in the House of Representatives both before World War II (when it was "Empire of Japan"), and after World War II (when it was just "Japan").

Hello, Place Clichy,
Is there a good reason you are emptying out categories created by User:The Anonymous Earthling? They were a sockmaster, not a block-evading sockpuppet so they are not eligible for CSD G5. Of course, now they are tagged for CSD C1.
You are a very experienced editor and should know that it's discouraged to empty categories "out of process".

Hello, Place Clichy,
If you look at
Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion, you'll see the notation Categories emptied out of process are not eligible for speedy deletion under C1.
It seems like you are often emptying out categories, not necessarily recategorizing articles to other, different categories but just removing all of the contents of a category so that it gets tagged for speedy deletion. I regularly review Wikipedia:Database reports/Empty categories and other tools we use to locate empty categories and I see you emptying categories quite a lot. I wouldn't be posting this note if it just happened once in a while, this happens with most editors who focus on editing and discussing categories and categorization. But I'm seeing this happen with dozens of categories over time.
If you want to remove categories that, say, include "West Asia" or "Latin America", I would prefer if you did a bundled nomination at WP:CFD so that policy and precedence can get extablished rather just emptying out a lot of categories. And, to be honest, categories that get deleted CSD C1 can easily be restored at any time while that is not the case for categories that are deleted, merged or renamed through CFD. Any way, despite this note, I'd like to thank you for all of your contributions to the project. Liz Read! Talk! 02:36, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Sorry I've been busy on other things. I have yet to write up the documentation on the changes I have made. I'll do that sometime over the next 24 hours.
The original two unnamed parameters will still work in much the way as they did before, but I am going to leave them undocumented (and depreciate their use) as it will be better to use named parameters as they are more flexible. I have put in enough documentation to cover anyone who needs to add a new template until such time as I write up the documentation.
So I hope it will satisfy you for the moment. -- PBS ( talk) 13:42, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

Of the recently added categories in Anastasius (Samaria), "clergy" strikes me as odd. He doesn't seem to have ever been a priest. Am I missing something? Dimadick ( talk) 09:55, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
I reverted your action on the ship that was built in Poland. The reason is, that I try to use two different systems: "Built in" and "Built at". For the schips by name you can find the country of building, the category by IMO number shows the shipyard. Combining will be double and there are a number of too strict rule-followers who will throw away one of the categories. I hope this way of working will survive. Experts work by IMO numbers and are interested in the yards. The gerenal publc is not very interested in the yards, only the country where a ship was built. -- Stunteltje ( talk) 17:50, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Categories must also be supported by the article's verifiable content. Categories may be removed if they are deemed incorrect for the subject matter. Thank you.

Hiya! I noticed that you have both Greek and German infoboxes on your profile. User:Vl.eu came onto the undeletion request forum requesting help with the article for Vicky Leandros. I left them some general information and recommended that they find a person who speaks their native language, since they have stated that their English isn't as strong as it could be. I'd like to say that they speak Greek or German since they listed the Greek and German websites for Leandros, although I'm somewhat suspecting that they're a Greek speaker. Nothing to back that up, though. In any case, would you be willing to try to converse with them in Greek and/or German to see if that's what they speak? I think that they mean well, but they would likely need to have things explained in their native language. I've tagged them with this post in the hopes that they'll come here, but you may need to go to their page. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 09:37, 2 August 2014 (UTC)

Hey Place Clichy, you mentioned it's unnecessary to categorize Eastern Orthodox believers both by nationality and by jurisdiction: just by nationality should be enough. In fact I completely agree with you but it's a bit complex to realize. Just deleting the categories by jurisdiction is not an option because numerous of these articles are only in the jurisdiction category and not yet in the nationality category. So ideally we'd merge the categories by jurisdiction to the categories by nationality. But then the next problem is they do not always match. This is especially problematic for the Russian and Serbian jurisdiction after the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia fell apart. If you have an idea how to solve this, please go ahead.

Frankly, in this instance, yes. Just dropping out of the blue "christian palestinians face the same terrible oppression as their muslim brothers" is totally biased and out of place. This sentence is not only written as out of a propaganda piece, it's dropped as a complete non sequester and its 'source' is an opinion section of Al-jazeera.... seriously?
it's also quite ironic that the sentence was shoehorned in between statements about all the genocides, massacres and legal discrimination christians face in literally every other country in the middle east other than israel, perhaps the reason why the completely vague phrase "oppression" had to be used since the real details would have been too stark a contrast with the grim reality of neighbouring countries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:E348:5180:5871:5D04:FC53:EA08 ( talk) 09:48, 8 March 2015 (UTC)
Also, considering any 'oppression' palestinians may face from Israel is totally national in nature, it has nothing to do with the article at all.
You might as well had "Saudi/Egyptian/yemeni/syrian/iraqi/lebanese/libyan/qatari/etc christians face the same government oppression as their muslim brothers". I mean that oppression is often a lot more severe than anything you'll see in palestine, and it's as valid a statement.
Are you starting to see how colossally stupid that sentence is in the article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:E348:5180:5871:5D04:FC53:EA08 ( talk) 09:53, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

Dear Place Clichy, You were correct to note that the claim of significance is present in the article. I see now that the bar is much lower than for Wikipedia:Notability, which I feel that neither it nor its French counterpart achieves at this point, absent significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. I tried, unsuccessfully, to remedy this problem by searching for anything written about the foundation in English from a reliable second or third-party source. (The French article cites a Parti de gauche website as its sole citation—probably not a reliable source and certainly not an indication of "significant coverage".) This led me to infer its non-notability. I'll look for your thoughts, here. Sincerely, User:HopsonRoad 01:52, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

I see that you restored some extremely substandard content to the encyclopaedia with this edit. In your summary you seemed confused as to why I had removed it. I did think that its total inadequacy was screamingly obvious to anyone who actually read it, but apparently not, so let me give you some reasons.
I removed it on 4 July, but it was restored by someone for no good reason. I removed it again, and now you've put it back for no good reason. I was planning to rewrite it, but as this content is fine by you, I won't bother.

Just for your information: The flag I removed was an earlier version, where the blue was far from correct, as you can see. And yes, I did take my concern to the author of the file, and they have made the current version. Actually I am not completely convinced that the new file is completely correct, either. I think the blue in the flag probably should be the same as the blue in the seal, but at least it is not conspicuously wrong now. Regards! -- T*U ( talk) 19:12, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BlackcurrantTea. I clicked on your contributions out of curiosity, and I noticed you're marking quite a few of your edits as minor, yet the ones I looked at aren't actually minor. Examples: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
It's an understandable mistake, and one I've made myself. The Wikipedia definition of minor is different to what most of us expect. I've reviewed Help:Minor edit many times, trying to decide if the changes I was making were minor. It helped me to think of a minor edit as a change that a reader is not that likely to notice (unless it's reverting obvious vandalism: this also counts as minor). Maybe it fixes a typo, or corrects the format of a reference without adding any new information. It doesn't change or add anything very noticeable to the page, and other editors are unlikely to dispute it.
I hope this helps. If you have any questions, you can reply to me here; I'll keep your talk page on my watchlist for a bit. Happy editing! BlackcurrantTea ( talk) 02:49, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
other editors are unlikely to dispute it, as as editors may dispute such things as the placing of a comma, sometimes rightfully so. In many years editing Wikipedia, I don't remember being challenged for misuse of the minor tag, although I have most certainly used it where I could not have, and the other way around.
To make up for the first diff, I'll add this navbox change; this change to a disambiguation page; and this change to an article. I don't see any of those as minor. BlackcurrantTea ( talk) 12:30, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

I've been thinking about your comments the other day about Syrian, Turkish, and Bulgarian Jews not being Sephardi. While I don't agree that most Syrians or Turks aren't Sephardi (not sure about Bulgarians), it does raise an interesting question. I wonder if these categories need to be reconsidered. Maybe being Ashkenazi/Mizrahi/Sephardi/etc. should be delinked from nationality categories. Jews from a particular nation may be Ashkenazi, Sephardi, or something else. Category:Hungarian Jews are classified as "Ashkenazi", but anecdotally, my Hungarian-Jewish friends are mostly Sephardi. Category:Dutch Jews are categorized with both Ashkenazi and Sephardi categories. Might it be more appropriate to have subcats for, say, Category:Dutch Sephardi Jews and Category:Dutch Ashkenazi Jews? Would it be more appropriate to have the categories as Category:Dutch people of Sephardi descent, etc.? I'm just not sure how useful it is to assume that an individual Jew or group of Jews is Ashkenazi/Sephardi/etc. based upon what country they are from.

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.

diffused geographically but the category is called "by state" rather than something more generic such as "by location", "by place", "by first-level subdivision", "by state or territory" etc., I believe that subcategories for Washington D.C. and other territories are still expected to be found in the geographical category rather than outside of it.

), explicitly signalling that there's a difference in the membership. Plus if you want to be rigid, places like Oklahoma, Hawaii, or Alaska were territories for quite a long time before they became states, so there's already plenty of "territory" material in your precious "by state" categories.

In this particular day, I noticed that you supported a merge for "Members of the United States Congress of XXX descent" to "American people of XXX descent". For some of those discussions, however, the upmerge target that the nom suggested was for "American politicians of XXX descent" rather than the "people" cat. I'm referring specifically to the Taiwanese and Korean CFD discussions, who actually have "American politicians" categories with nontrivial numbers of members. I would like to confirm whether your supported target in those two instances are for the "American people" cats or the "American politicians" cats; I'd rather not make assumptions about what you think.

There's nothing intrinsically wrong with pipes and redirects. See, e.g. MOS:DABPIPE and the sections below. There's a particular problem in linking to the geographical areas covered by the WGSRPD codes, since their definition may not correspond exactly to the precise definition used in the nearest Wikipedia article. Leaving a redirect allows for an easier change if a better article becomes available.
Please read Wikipedia:PLANTS/WGSRPD and follow its advice. For example, I cannot find a plant that is endemic to Indian Punjab, so there is no need for the category Category:Flora of Punjab, India. The ridiculously long list of distribution categories at Dillenia pentagyna is against guidelines, and should be reduced to a few higher level categories. Peter coxhead ( talk) 08:46, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
At Category:Flora of Altai (region), you added Category:Geography of Altai Krai and Category:Geography of the Altai Republic. There are major problems in how to categorize geographical areas, in my experience, and this may be the best solution. However, WP:SUBCAT says "If logical membership of one category implies logical membership of a second (an is-a relationship), then the first category should be made a subcategory (directly or indirectly) of the second." But "Flora of Altai Krai + Altai Republic" is not a subcategory of either "Geography of Altai Krai" or "Geography of the Altai Republic". In terms of geography, the reverse is true; in terms of topic (flora vs. geography), there's no "is-a" relationship. Anyway, I leave this to your judgement.

Hi, I'm grateful that you're cleaning tags and making sure that they're warranted, but I wanted to mention to you that edit summaries like this diff are making a pretty objectional assumption. The page had the tag because she does migration studies, social inclusion work, and especially Afro-German studies, she's an advocate with affiliation groups for Black people in Germany, and she's been specifically described as a "migrant woman". I didn't just look at her face and decide she looks African, and it's pretty brutal -- and not in the spirit of WP:AGF -- to assume that's what I did.

Hello, Place Clichy,
Just a reminder that anytime you tag a page for deletion (CSD, PROD, AfD/CfD/TfD/etc), you should post a notice on the talk page of the page creator informing them that the page has been tagged for deletion. Otherwise, a page they created can be deleted and they have no idea what has happened! There are times when they can easily correct whatever problems exist that cause the page to be tagged.
The process is made easy when you use Twinkle which automatically posts a talk page notice whenever you tag a page for deletion once you set up your Twinkle Preferences. You can see Twinkle-initiated messages (above) which I have posted to your own talk page when a page you created has been tagged for deletion. I encourage you to use it. Thank you! Liz Read!

even just one UN member state") is you personal opinion. Is it shared by reliable sources? The difference between Israel and the State of Palestine is also that one is a UN member-state while the other is not (OK, it is an observer, but so is the Order of Malta) and that Palestine is also only a de jure state with a lack of actual control on its territory, especialy in terms of borders and security, which are key components of international recognition of statehood.

I'm trying to categorise mediaeval rabbis. Many of them are in Category:Rabbis of Academy of Pumbedita, which is in Category:Babylonia, but the note on that - which you have recently editted - says "This category is for articles relating to Babylonia (18th century BC–539 BC)." I'm looking at Category:9th-century rabbis and the like. I know very little about the history of this period, and I'm hoping you know more than me. Can we call these people Babylonian, as many of the articles do, or if not, what? Rathfelder ( talk) 13:10, 1 June 2022 (UTC)
The Talmudic academies in Babylonia [...] were the center for Jewish scholarship and the development of Halakha from roughly 589 to 1038 CE [...] in what is called "Babylonia" in Jewish sources, at the time otherwise known as Asōristān (under the Sasanian Empire) or Iraq (under the Muslim caliphate until the 11th century). It is neither geopolitically, nor geographically identical with the ancient empires of Babylonia, since the Jewish focus of interest has to do with the Jewish religious academies, which were mainly situated in an area between the rivers Tigris and Euphrates and primarily between Pumbedita (modern Fallujah, a town west of Baghdad), and Sura, a town farther south down the Euphrates. The key work of these academies was the compilation of the Babylonian Talmud.

Hello, Place Clichy,
Recently, you tagged some categories for speedy deletion. However, you didn't post a notification on the talk page of the page creator. This is part of the deletion process and a content creator has the right to know that a page they created is headed towards deletion. I'm sure you would want to know. Most editors and admins do this using Twinkle, an editing tool that makes things very simple for editors. Once you set up your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator", then Twinkle will post these notification on your behalf and notify the page creator. Please do this in the future. Thank you.

The Dakotas were one territory as Dakota Territory prior to statehood. I am not sure anyone would think of them as a distinct divided region, and since Maine was at one time part of Massachusetts maybe they constitute in some way a divided region.

New Mexico Territory at one point included Arizona, but I would not advocate New Mexico/Arizona as a divided region. John Pack Lambert ( talk) 11:23, 18 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Place Clichy,
Is there a good reason you are emptying out categories created by User:The Anonymous Earthling? They were a sockmaster, not a block-evading sockpuppet so they are not eligible for CSD G5. Of course, now they are tagged for CSD C1.
You are a very experienced editor and should know that it's discouraged to empty categories "out of process".

Hello, Place Clichy,
If you look at
Category:Empty categories awaiting deletion, you'll see the notation Categories emptied out of process are not eligible for speedy deletion under C1.
It seems like you are often emptying out categories, not necessarily recategorizing articles to other, different categories but just removing all of the contents of a category so that it gets tagged for speedy deletion. I regularly review Wikipedia:Database reports/Empty categories and other tools we use to locate empty categories and I see you emptying categories quite a lot. I wouldn't be posting this note if it just happened once in a while, this happens with most editors who focus on editing and discussing categories and categorization. But I'm seeing this happen with dozens of categories over time.
If you want to remove categories that, say, include "West Asia" or "Latin America", I would prefer if you did a bundled nomination at WP:CFD so that policy and precedence can get extablished rather just emptying out a lot of categories. And, to be honest, categories that get deleted CSD C1 can easily be restored at any time while that is not the case for categories that are deleted, merged or renamed through CFD. Any way, despite this note, I'd like to thank you for all of your contributions to the project. Liz Read! Talk! 02:36, 11 February 2024 (UTC)
