Thanks for making Lineage B.1.617. This article got about 200k pageviews in the past 30 days, which is extraordinary for a word and concept which practically no one would call by its name. I suppose I could post on the talk page there, but since you have insight, are you aware of a common name for this concept considering that it is now part of common conversation? Is it the "Indian variant" or similar? Blue Rasberry (talk) 13:54, 25 May 2021 (UTC) |
Can we create a page for Pango Lineage B.1.617? edit
Hi SpookiePuppy, I am not too good at how to start a new article. I wanted to know if you think we should have a base article called "Pango Lineage B.1.617" that speaks about all three currently know sub-variants?
- @Liquefier: Thanks for the suggestion. I suppose this is partially a question about the remaining material which needs splitting off from the original Lineage B.1.617 article. As you will know, the main lineage (B.1.617) and variants/sublineages are in a state of flux to say the least. So I don't see any reason why we can't have a general page about the main lineage and your proposed title: "Pango Lineage B.1.617" would be a good way to distinguish it. I would take this opportunity to create the article yourself, an editor has to start somewhere. One way to start it is to locate your own user sandbox (ensure you are logged in). Then in the top address which should look something like "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User" followed by your "username/sandbox" add a forward slash "/" and type your proposed title for the page. As a general rule, article titles should be in "sentence case", not title case, so only the first word would be capitalised, unless it's a proper names. WP:NCCAPS So the second word would not be capitalised and your proposed title would therefore be "Pango lineage B.1.617". However, I am sure you already know that "PANGO" is short for "PANGOLIN" (Phylogenetic Assignment of Named Global Outbreak Lineages). So perhaps the "PANGO" should be in capital letters? So the final result would be "PANGO lineage B.1.617". But also check out: "Acronyms_in_page_titles"[1]. Going back to you sandbox, when you enter the full HTML line in your browser, Wikipedia should ask you whether you want to create that page. But there are other ways. You could start a new draft article in the draft space WP:DRAFT. Draft articles have "Draft:" (without the quotes) before the article title. The full address you would input to create your draft would look something like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:PANGO_lineage_B.1.617 The advantage of creating a draft like this is that you could invite other editors to help out and keep a watchful eye on it. I hope this helps. I would urge you to take the plunge and create the draft and start working on it. Hopefully people will come to help, as there is a need for pages which help disentangle the parent lineage from the evolving sublineages. Feel free to reply here on my talk page with any further questions. SpookiePuppy (talk) 00:41, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
October 2021 edit
Hello, I'm TJRC. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of classical music competitions, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. TJRC (talk) 20:42, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- @TJRC: You were right to revert my additions. I was getting a bit lazy there, and relying on the blue link too much. I have been trying to find a suitable reference for the Malta International Composition Competition but keep hitting the same brick wall - the problem seems to be that the competition probably now has a different name, or that the name has evolved. It seems that the competition name may have changed along with the focus of the composition rubric, for example, the "Malta International String Orchestra Composition Competition", or the "Malta International Music Competition" (with a composition category), and more recently, "Malta International Composition Competition for String Quartet 2021". I believe these are all the same fundamental competition, but it's very confusing and very difficult to source especially with the competition name as it is currently worded. I appreciate you thanking me for my edit when I re-added the Masterprize competition with the 2 references. I will try and help out with adding reliable sources to the list.

Charles III requested move discussion edit
There is a new requested move discussion in progress for the Charles III article. Since you participated in the previous discussion, I thought you might like to know about this one. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 07:11, 24 July 2023 (UTC)

Other British monarch requested move discussions currently taking place edit
Since you recently participated in the Charles III requested move discussion, I thought you might like to know that there are two other discussions currently going on about other British monarch article titles here and here. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 22:28, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for letting me know (again). I note that the survey (now proposed move) of George I of Great Britain is the inverse situation to the Charles III proposed move, but the Elizabeth II is similar to the Charles the III proposed move, but the net is being cast much wider. What a nightmare. I never dreamt something like this could literally find itself on or in quicksand. SpookiePuppy (talk) 22:40, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
Requested move discussion edit
There is currently a Request Move discussion about William IV. Since you participated in the previous move discussion involving William IV, I thought you might want to know about this one. Cheers. Rreagan007 (talk) 19:19, 21 September 2023 (UTC)
Bill Carmody Draft edit
Hi! I see you are a member of WikiProject Law. I am seeking feedback on a draft I created about trial attorney Bill Carmody, of Susman Godfrey, who has been profiled in the press several times because of the size and prominence of his cases. I have explained more here: User talk:Backyard116/sandbox/Bill Carmody/Seeking feedback. He’s a personal connection of mine, so impartial advice on notability and neutral point of view would be greatly appreciated. Backyard116 (talk) 16:14, 10 October 2023 (UTC)

Invitation to join New pages patrol edit
Hello SpookiePuppy!
- The New Pages Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles needing review. We could use a few extra hands to help.
- We think that someone with your activity and experience is very likely to meet the guidelines for granting.
- Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time, but it requires a strong understanding of Wikipedia’s CSD policy and notability guidelines.
- Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision, and feel free to post on the project talk page with questions.
- If patrolling new pages is something you'd be willing to help out with, please consider applying here.
Thank you for your consideration. We hope to see you around!
