Disambiguation link notification for August 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited On Your Mark, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Only Yesterday and Akira (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your GA nomination of Spirited Away

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Spirited Away you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria.   This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by GA bot, on behalf of 1ST7 -- 1ST7 (talk) 20:14, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Article Feedback Tool update

Hey ChrisGualtieri. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles.

We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article.

Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) 21:42, 1 September 2013 (UTC)

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day
Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
Quality
Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content
Is more content needed?
Headings
Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
Images
Is the number of illustrative images about right?
Links
Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
Sources
For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.

  Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Anime may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • /ref> Theatrical anime continue to be produced and re-released on different formats.<ref name=ae />{{rp|13> Television is a major medium for the distribution of anime, the first anime series began appearing
  • are not just made up, but can be based on real life locations from ''[[Howl's Moving Castle (film}|Howl's Moving Castle]] to ''[[The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya (anime)|Melancholy of Haruhi

In your last comment at RSN, you say that "Anno's response, in English, to criticism was summed up as "I have no problem with them. If there's a problem, it's all with you guys. Too bad." And you cite http://web.archive.org/web/20020606012703/http://masterwork.animemedia.com/Evangelion/anno.html.

"On Evangelion's last two episodes , which upset many fans...

ANNO: I have no problem with them. If there's a problem, it's all with you guys. Too bad. "

Please tell me you DO understand that Anno's answer refers to the "last two episodes", with which he has no problem, and not to criticism.Folken de Fanel (talk) 20:25, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Stay off my page. I said before that I don't want you posting here. Your polemic and rampant POV pushing is a problem. You ignore simple questions and create drama, you counter my good faith with bad faith and insults. You have demonstrated little knowledge of Anno's personal life and less for the information on Evangelion itself. You do not even understand the context of the sources you debate and this post was proof of it. Goodbye Folken, stay off my page. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 20:38, 11 September 2013 (UTC)
You're the only one insulting me here. I've been very patient with you. But obviously, whenever you have to interpret sources, there is a problem, and I'm merely trying to understand what it is, since we both have to collaborate on Evangelion.Folken de Fanel (talk) 20:44, 11 September 2013 (UTC)

Editor disputes

Hey I just have noticed that you do not seem to be getting along with three editors now all from wikiproject anime/manga (Lucia Black, Ryulong, and now Folken de Fanel) I am just saying I notice a trend here and hope things can get better. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 01:03, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

I'm sorry, but editors have issues with them as well. Ryulong and Lucia you already know about, but Folken de Fanel has been blocked on several pedias for POV violations and sockpuppeting. Here he is willingly misusing a bad publication to go against the original source. I have dozens of interviews with Anno, I can call a bad synth and a bad op-ed when I see it. I cited the original source and he removed it as "unsourced", making a false statement in his edit summary.[2] The original source should be used, not some third party paraphrasing that was done by the editor's friend. Folken assumes the op-ed to be more reliable than the ACTUAL source and just because I can't find the original Japanese article he is making a fuss about it. Wikipedia doesn't work that way. Also using bad sources and synthing them is a problem one of BLP levels because he is misquoting Anno and taking it out of context. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 01:18, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
Well if it is a bad source then yes the right thing to do would to be find a more neutral reliable source. As for the editor disputes it is just something I have seen I guess. If the editing gets hot you can always take a break just for future reference =). - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 01:30, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
Yep. Been a rough day, but the original is still the best source as always. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 12:09, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Anime- and manga-related articles

Im just curious, what do you want to see happen with the guideline/guide? I strongly feel that our wikiproject should have one as with other editors but all I have seen is WP:IDONTLIKEIT arguments and no talk on how to improve things. - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 21:15, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

I'd like MOSAM to be rewritten and become better. We may have different opinions, but A&M as a whole cannot use it properly as it stands - as a Wikiproject style it can perform the same function and be rewritten as many times as necessary. I'd actually like something to be rather novel to come of it, and that would be a standard worthy of a publication type complete with international cast lists in a table, a dedicated section to summarize other adaptations with some context and to put most merchandise like the OST on the relevant page and not some other side place when the OST doesn't meet N. I'd also like to have the episode list combined and not as a means to violate PLOT on small series of 26 episodes or less. If you can't cover a 26 episode series in 700 words you need to compress it more. I'd like a section about detailing casting and Japanese reception in magazines - we are always lacking such information on A&M despite it being the best sources. I have a lot of ideas and a lot of things, but no one wants to hear me out sometimes. I appreciate you asking me. I try to do what I see is best, but I know not everyone agrees with me. Its not a battle, and I don't expect all my ideas to be used or considered, but MOSAM needs a new standard. I just don't know how we will sit down and work this out at this time. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 21:24, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

Hey

So presumably you have access to many manga/anime magazines and books, know relevant websites, etc, maybe also you can translate from Japanese. I don't/can't really any of that, and for the entire last decade I've been a vidya guy, but now everything Slayers seriously needs attention and it's getting none despite its historical importance and being continued still. I've cleaned up the main article once and just rewrote Naga the Serpent, maybe you would take care of it? --Niemti (talk) 20:08, 17 September 2013 (UTC)

I think it is just the lack of interest which was the reason why, they are definitely notable works and all the current pages need a major overhaul. I'll add it to the list, but Japanese sources will be required and I don't have the best access to those. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 03:07, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
There's still an interest, just practically no one nobody edits anime stuff on Wikipedia anymore, in general. English sources are cool too. Or Polish. Or Italian. --Niemti (talk) 06:39, 18 September 2013 (UTC)

Dal gCais ruling

I'm at a loss to discover the rationale for your last message. You mention the use of talk pages. My defence spoke about my use of the talk page and how the nominator did not engage meaningfully there. So what was that about? I also demonstrated that I did not remove anything, that it use a grouping up to the level of parent category. So how is that a violation? I also demonstrated that it was a case of more precision instead of generic categorisation. How is that a fault? Laurel Lodged (talk) 16:32, 21 September 2013 (UTC)

Opinion for manga chapter list

So I was thinking of trying a new structure for manga chapter lists. Specifically, this prototype will usurp List of Maison Ikkoku chapters. I think this would be an improvement because its current structure is pretty confusing, its episodic chapters always have a beginning and ending to a short plot making it difficult to summarize as a volume, and improves on the article's accuracy due how the chapters are arranged in the English volumes. In the past though, I have been opposed by the A&M project when I try new things like his, so I was hoping for your opinion. Thanks. DragonZero (Talk · Contribs) 20:38, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

It is a lot better and I believe that would be a good set up for MOSAM because it adhers to WP:PLOT and doesn't offer for a way to allow for 100~ words per episode, chapter, etc. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 02:26, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

Slayers AGAIN (no, not the rumored anime)

So, what do you think about those split proposals of my at Slayers? That would be one article for the TV series at very least (if not 4, like with every season of Dragonball, but I'm not sure about it so maybe later).

Also, you might drop by and review my work with Slayers The Motion Picture and Slayers Return before I continue, as I'm not sure if I'm doing everything right. Oh, and to share any materials you've got (I'm going to ask people in the fandom too). --Niemti (talk) 15:19, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, I've been really busy with work, study and research for Wikipedia. I have literally a stack of papers two feet thick to review and I simply cannot devote much time to Slayers at this point, but given that the GITS dispute is going to mediation and will likely have implications for MOSAM I'd hold off on making separate articles unless you got a sizable chunk of content. After I get through these few thousand pages I'll probably be able to work quickly on Slayers. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 15:28, 22 September 2013 (UTC)
That's okay, no hurry. You, sir, are a scholar and a bro. --Niemti (talk) 17:40, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Your involvement with DRN

Hi there, I noticed that you haven't been as active at DRN as you was before. DRN has been a bit backlogged lately and we could use some extra hands. We have updated our volunteer list to a new format, Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/Volunteers (your name is still there under the old format if you haven't updated it) and are looking into ways to make DRN more effective and more rewarding for volunteers (your input is appreciated!). If you don't have much time to volunteer at the moment, that's fine too, just move your name to the inactive list (you're free to add yourself back to active at any time).

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions

We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:

Views/Day
Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
Quality
Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:

Content
Is more content needed?
Headings
Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
Images
Is the number of illustrative images about right?
Links
Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
Sources
For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Ghost in the Shell 2". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 3 October 2013.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Your GA nomination of Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (film)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind (film) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria.   This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Jionpedia -- Jionpedia (talk) 14:10, 27 September 2013 (UTC)

Gnome sweet gnome

Hi Chris, Over the weekend, I expanded the AWB regexes for dmy based on recent status of my various scripts and have also made a small test run. While it seems to work well enough, some of the rules, such as removing certain comments, don't seem to work. I should say once again that my scripts have protection to some degree, whilst the ABW module has no inherent protection, and relies on that built into AWB itself, and the more rules I put in, the more these limits may be tested. Among changes you will notice is that there is more downcasing of commonly capitalised terms, and reduction in the incidence of chain-linking involving countries: In addition to a small number of countries, nationalities and languages that were unlinked, linked countries at the end of a line will also be unlinked. But as usual, feel free to let me know if there are more tweaks I can add, of if you want some taken out. Regards, -- Ohc ¡digame!¿que pasa? 01:34, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, with the next database dump, I will resume the project. I think any issues with DATE has been effectively resolved as hundreds and thousands of the same type of edits are performed by a bot without issue. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 02:04, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
Chris, would you please clarify what you mean by "issues with DATE". Regards, -- Ohc ¡digame!¿que pasa? 03:27, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
The linking of years without reason, like 1973 or 1741 or July 18, all in articles unrelated to the actual year or date in question. You know, the ones hotly contested for Year in "something"? Many of those have been fixed in accordance with the MOS by a bot, and I didn't see any objections raised. So problem solved... I think. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 03:33, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
You must be talking about User:Full-date unlinking bot. That singularly transformed sentiment about linking practices all across WP, not just dates... ;-) -- Ohc ¡digame!¿que pasa? 06:06, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
I think it was one by Mag or something, but I forgot the name of it. In any case, the database dump should be up next week and I can start again. Got a bunch of GANs up, but they should not interfere too much with gnoming. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 13:37, 30 September 2013 (UTC)

Let's work together on some Hiking trails

I got a stash of books covering hiking in Connecticut and I'm ready to put up a lot of information on Wikipedia about Connecticut's diverse and vast hiking trails. I'm going to begin with the creation of Hiking in Connecticut and use it as a springboard into the Blue-Blazed Trails and other nature walks. The article could possibly hit GA rather quickly if we work together on it. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 15:47, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

Chris -- That sounds great. Let me know what help or advice you might want. I have a large stock of photos on Flickr I can contribute [3] as well as some I haven't put up yet -- and I can take more photos for illustration if you want. Morrowlong (talk)

I've actually begun by putting all the trails into the Wikipedia:WikiProject Hiking trails scope so that they can see and improve the articles and work together if necessary. I think I need to make a run on the 300,000 articles in the USA scope and do a bunch of fixing there before I get too deep into Hiking. Among my stash is 8 books solely on Connecticut trails and I have dozens more in the archives. I just got bored and wanted to do something new for a bit and I couldn't pass up esoteric subjects when a complete collection of sources for GA/FA sat in front of me. Heehee.

The Wikialpha alternative for articles you can't save from deletion

If an article can't be saved from deletion, or is getting cut down to nothing by a merger, you might want to considering moving it over to WikiAlpha.org, which is a similar site to Wikipedia, but it's new, and it specifically does not require proof of "notability" to keep the articles. It's generally intended as an alternative wikipedia for people tired of the over-active deletionists. Mathewignash (talk) 02:26, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Here is what I want you to do

I want you to goto Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Anime and manga and in a layout submit what you want for changes to WP:MOSAM, go case by case "proposal 1, Proposal 2, Proposal 3" Chris I would do this for you but it has to be from you as you know what you want. What not to do: 1. "Edit on your beliefs even if you think you are right 2. Continue discussing other article examples each case is different 3. Not quit because if you do it will just give the others what they want if what you say is true. Now if you still are getting shafted after making an RfC on your proposals then it can go back to WP:ANI sound good? - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 04:03, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Okay. I'll draft it out and put it up tomorrow. I have some articles to merge... a lot of them, over at the D&D project. I'm in the middle of rewriting the list of deities page and making use of the long forgotten pages like Dwarf deities and Orc deities and combine them into working character lists. It'd be a bad thing to mention I plan to do this to some articles on A&M? Right? ChrisGualtieri (talk) 04:07, 6 October 2013 (UTC)
Yes, until there is a solid consensus on the things you want I would wait it out, saying you are going to do x to article z is only going to get editors to say not all articles are alike, you are pushing your point ect.... - Knowledgekid87 (talk) 04:10, 6 October 2013 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia; merging during AfD

Hi. I see that you have been merging D&D articles. Looking at your last 50 article edits, most of your edit summaries are as recommended, but a few of them do not have valid wikilinks to their source article, the most important part. Please take care to be consistent, and review WP:Copying within Wikipedia and WP:Merging if necessary. On a separate note, you copied the entire article from User:ChrisGualtieri/Bleach (anime) to Bleach (anime) without attribution (cross-page diff), but I don't want to attempt a fix in the middle of a dispute.

You merged Laduguer to Dwarf deities during WP:Articles for deletion/Laduguer. Even though merge was the likely outcome, please do not merge articles at AfD, per the fifth/last item under WP:Guide to deletion#You may edit the article during the discussion. Flatscan (talk) 04:44, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Please stop beating the dead horse

So long as you keep derailing the topic back to your pet issue, you can't act surprised when people address it.

You seem to be baiting me and not contributing to the resolution of the issue with inflammatory comments like this.[4]. I've asked you to please stop.
