  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Please do not move pages to the help namespace when they are established articles.

I've attempted to move it back to it's original state (I couldn't fully do it as I don't have the user rights to delete redirects) as I can't find a discussion relating to the moving of it, if you could link me to one, I will get it moved in a short while.

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Earl of Sutton Coldfield. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Capital letters

edit

Please stop capitalising director general of the BBC. You should read MOS:JOB and realising you are doing this incorrectly. - SchroCat (talk) 09:40, 10 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

I second that wise request. Whatever our personal preferences, we all need to abide by the rules of any organisation we join, and Wikipedia's manual of style is crystal clear: we don't capitalise job titles like this. And, a word to the wise: don't keep reverting changes you don't like: repeated reversion will get you banned from editing. Tim riley talk 13:46, 10 September 2023 (UTC)Reply

Lord Great Chamberlain

edit

The Lord Great Chamberlain is a Hereditary office in gross post between Cholmondeley Ancaster and Carrington familes.

In 1902 it was ruled by the House of Lords that the then joint office holders (the 1st Earl of Ancaster, the 4th Marquess of Cholmondeley, and the Earl Carrington, later Marquess of Lincolnshire) had to agree on a deputy to exercise the office, subject to the approval of the Sovereign. Should there be no such agreement, the Sovereign should appoint a deputy until an agreement be reached.[1]

In 1912 an agreement was reached. The office, or right to appoint the person to exercise the office, would thereafter rotate among the three joint office holders and their heirs after them, changing at the start of each successive reign. Cholmondeley and his heirs would serve in every other reign; Ancaster and Carrington would each serve once in four reigns.[2]

Hi,

I've just reverted your edit at "Dave Lee Travis". The Manual of Style recommends against using a "piped" link where a redirect will do. Please see MOS:NOPIPE, WP:NOPIPE and WP:NOTBROKEN.

Hello again,

Could you slow down and discuss this?

Best wishes, Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 20:08, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ok I will have a break. Earl of Sutton Coldfield (talk) 21:12, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. I'd really like to understand what it is you're trying to do. Adding a "pipe" to pages that already have a link to (for example) "Marine Broadcasting Offences Act" doesn't change the displayed text or the target page, but complicates the source code. Changing the text to "Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967" may be technically more correct, but it's cumbersome to read, which is presumably why the shorter form is generally used. What I'd really like to avoid is a situation where I end up chasing you around reverting your edits. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 21:29, 30 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hi Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967 will have this from now on. Earl of Sutton Coldfield (talk) 17:17, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
Whoah! Slow down! If that's the preferred form that's arrived at by consensus, the best thing to do would be to either move the page that's currently at "Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967" to "Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967" and update the links as required, or create a redirect from "Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967" to "Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967". But you're making these changes - that affect many pages - unilaterally, without discussion. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 17:26, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hang on it will have this format Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967|Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967 with [[]]. Earl of Sutton Coldfield (talk) 17:27, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
You can use <nowiki></nowiki> and <code></code> tags to show code. So you're saying that you've decided that the standard form will be "[[Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967|Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967]]". If that's the consensus position, the right thing to do would be what I suggested above - either move the page or create a redirect. But you haven't sought consensus for these changes that affect many pages. Let's talk about the best way to proceed. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 17:34, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
That is the format which is on each article. Earl of Sutton Coldfield (talk) 17:38, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
That's the format that you've decided to impose on every article! It's not just there - you put it there! I don't think it's the right format, for the reasons I explained above. We should either move the page, or make a new redirect. So please stop forcing this change through, and discuss it with me, as I asked you to ten days ago. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 17:41, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
OK, each article should have Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967 where as some have Marine Broadcasting Offences Act or Marine (Offences) Act, it looks standard across the board as Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967. Earl of Sutton Coldfield (talk) 17:52, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
No, it does not have to be exactly the same in each article. Edits like this are at best a waste of time. DuncanHill (talk) 17:54, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
I understand the urge to have a consistent format, and I also think it's a good idea to use a simplified, readable form for the displayed text, rather than using the full title "Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967" every time the act is mentioned. For the reasons explained at MOS:NOPIPE and WP:NOPIPE, creating "piped" links as you've been doing isn't the best way to do this. I'd like to ask for broader input as this affects so many pages. Could you suggest the best way to go about it, DuncanHill? Would an RfC be a good idea? I'm not experienced in these matters. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 18:04, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
There is no need for an RfC or anything else, just for Earl of Sutton Coldfield to stop it! DuncanHill (talk) 18:05, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
I have stopped now. Earl of Sutton Coldfield (talk) 18:21, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. But really you should have stopped to discuss this ten days ago when I asked you to. You've taken a lot of time and effort to make a lot of changes that in general are not helpful, and that could have been avoided with a little discussion.
I agree with DuncanHill that there's no need to have complete uniformity in the title of the act. The full, correct title is cumbersome to use, and in many cases the context will make the "1967" date unnecessary. But the current variety of titles in use isn't ideal either. Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 18:32, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
For example, if you look at the changes you made at "Dave Lee Travis", you've added "1967" to the displayed text, but the sentence begins, "In 1967 ...", so repeating the date is unnecessary. You've also added the "piped" link to "Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967" which isn't displayed, and serves no purpose, since the original link redirected to the same page.
Why not create a redirect from "Marine Broadcasting Offences Act 1967" to "Marine, &c., Broadcasting (Offences) Act 1967" and use that as the short form when the date isn't clear from context? Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 18:51, 9 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
