AFC reviewer rights

If I remember correctly, you were granted AfC reviewer rights on probation in early December - this means they will expire some time in February. Any plans on renewing it? Pahunkat (talk) 13:30, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Pahunkat, yes, although I have no idea how to renew it. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 13:31, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

I think you need to request them again on the same talk page. However, I may be wrong. Pahunkat (talk) 13:36, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Pahunkat, honestly, at this point I don't even know how long my AfC probation was supposed to be, according to Primefac, who granted me the right, it will be "3-6 months". although the project page says 2 months. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 13:39, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Odd, I suppose you can request an extension when they expire. I was going off the project page Also, what is 'reply-link' that everyone seems to be using? Pahunkat (talk) 13:47, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Pahunkat, as for reply-link, it's a script created by Enterprisey that gives you... well... a link that allows you to reply to discussions, see User:Enterprisey/reply-link.js to install it. It doesn't work that well on Uncyclopedia. Seriously. I tried it. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 13:55, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

JJPMaster, I see - testing it now. Pahunkat (talk) 13:57, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Speedy non-admin closures at RfD

Why have you speedily closed discussions at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 February 2? While all the participants other than the nominator agreed (albeit one weakly) there was not an overwhelming number of them and no obvious reason for the discussions to be closed early. Thryduulf (talk) 16:51, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Thryduulf, on second thought, I do agree that, especially with the one with the R from move discussion that I closed as speedy keep, I did indeed close those discussions too early, and will try to refrain from doing so in the future. I'll be honest, I don't even remember why I decided to do the RfD closes to begin with. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 16:59, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

I saw this on my watchlist

Why did you redirect your userpage? Just curious. Thanoscar21^talk_{contributions} 21:31, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanoscar21, I'm planning on redesigning my userpage to get rid of all the unnecessary userboxes/clutter, so I moved the previous content of the userpage to User:JJPMaster/old, but I was required to leave a redirect. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 21:32, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

That's smart. I just replaced things. Seems that you're... more organized than I am. Thanoscar21^talk_{contributions} 21:39, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

New York nursing home scandal renaming

Hi, I see you renamed Andrew Cuomo's response to nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic to 2021 New York nursing home scandal. Thank you for doing so. However, if you look at the discussion, the consensus was to rename it to New York COVID-19 nursing home scandal instead of the originally suggested 2021 New York nursing home scandal. Could you switch it to the one agreed to the discussion? Kyjama (talk) 23:46, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

How to directly upload an article?

Hello, I have previously written articles for Wikipedia, and been granted permission to publish a new article without going through Afc review. I do not how to publish an article without it being reviewed beforehand - could you help me with that? If not, could you please review & publish this article that I have written, which is now pending for review: Draft: Medial Epicondyle Fracture of the Humerus.

Many thanks, Apaul291003 (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 22:18, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

@Apaul291003: The article looks pretty good to me; approved. If you want to make an article without having it approved, you can just create it directly in the article namespace and wait for a new page patroller to approve it. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 22:47, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

@JJPMaster: How do I create it directly in the namespace? What does that mean? Thanks Apaul291003 (talk) 23:24, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Apaul291003, I mean creating an article directly, such as going to Insert page name here and adding the article there instead of going to Draft:Insert page name here and submitting it. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 23:25, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi JJP!

Hey, I'm Hipponias from Uncyc and I've decided to join Wikipedia! (btw thanks for porting RedWarn and Huggle to Uncyc!)

Just asking, as a newbie what policy/writing pages should I read first? I know how to format and the way wikitext works so I guess learning how to cite would be a good idea.

Also, is there a link-suggest ability similar to Uncyc? I tried preferences but there were 500 other choices and I could not find it (assuming it exists). Hipponias (talk) 11:47, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

@Hipponias: Welcome to Wikipedia! A few policies you may want to first read are our core content policies, five pillars, and ignore all rules, followed by a few other policies such as our biographies of living people policy and civility. If you want to know how to cite, specifically read WP:V and WP:RS to understand the basics of what a reliable source is, and read WP:CITE and Help:References to understand how to cite them. And as for link suggest, it is powered by the LinkSuggest MediaWiki extension, which Wikipedia does not have installed. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 11:56, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Cleaning up Special:WantedTemplates

Hi, due to quirks in the way that Wikipedia parses javascript pages, curly braces are parsed as templates, unless they are inside of <nowiki>...</nowiki>, <pre>...</pre>, <syntaxhighlight>...</syntaxhighlight> ... As a result of this, your script page, User:JJPMaster/RWS.js, is generating links in Special:WantedTemplates (in particular links to Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:RWTEXT and Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:RWTEXT\). Recently, an interface editor attempted to fix this by adding <nowiki> at the top and </nowiki> at the bottom of your script page. This didn't work because you already have <nowiki>...</nowiki> on that page. It would be great if you could add <syntaxhighlight>...</syntaxhighlight> tags (you don't have these) at the top and bottom of your page like this which will prevent your page from generating links in Special:WantedTemplates. Thanks for your help! Plastikspork _―Œ^(talk) 14:35, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Your edits to the RexxS case page

Please don't edit closed case pages, especially to make changes to the final decision. I have reverted you as changes to final decisions usually require arbitrator motions.

Floyd The Barber

Hi. It's been a few months, I took a break, and decided to finish the page. https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Floyd_the_Barber_(Nirvana_Song) I hope this is good enough! 26 March 2021 BoxxyBoy (talk)

BoxxyBoy, the article LGTM, however I think it would be better to merge the article to Bleach (Nirvana album), because the source's generally reference the album as a whole, instead of the song specifically. JJP...MASTER!_{[talk to] JJP... master?} 01:39, 27 March 2021 (UTC)

I get what you are saying, and the page still could use a couple additions, which i am working on as we speak, but is a song such as floyd the barber, which the band considered their first big hit, less deserving of a page than, say, endless nameless (talk) March 26, 09:58.

Articles for Creation July 2021 Backlog Elimination Drive

Hello JJPMaster:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to eliminate the backlog of unreviewed articles. The drive is running until 31 July 2021.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is currently a backlog of over 1800 articles, so start reviewing articles. We're looking forward to your help!

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021

New Page Review queue September 2021

Hello JJPMaster,

Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.

Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.

At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.

There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.

If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.

Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.

Invitation to take part in a survey about medical topics on Wikipedia

Dear fellow editor,

I am Piotr Konieczny, a sociologist of new media at Hanyang University (and User:Piotrus on Wikipedia). I would like to better understand Wikipedia's volunteers who edit medical topics, many associated with the WikiProject Medicine, and known to create some of the highest quality content on Wikipedia. I hope that the lessons I can learn from you that I will present to the academic audience will benefit both the WikiProject Medicine (improving your understanding of yourself and helping to promote it and attract new volunteers) and the wider world of medical volunteering and academia. Open access copy of the resulting research will be made available at WikiProject's Medicine upon the completion of the project.

All questions are optional. The survey is divided into 4 parts: 1 - Brief description of yourself; 2 - Questions about your volunteering; 3 - Questions about WikiProject Medicine and 4 - Questions about Wikipedia's coverage of medical topics.

Please note that by filling out this questionnaire, you consent to participate in this research. The survey is anonymous and all personal details relevant to your experience will be kept private and will not be transferred to any third party.

I appreciate your support of this research and thank you in advance for taking the time to participate and share your experiences! If you have any questions at all, please feel free to contact me at my Wikipedia user page or through my email listed on the survey page (or by Wikipedia email this user function).

The survey is accessible through the LINK HERE.

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

• AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
• The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Speedy deletion nomination of Maya Georgieva (Q12286339)

A tag has been placed on Maya Georgieva (Q12286339), requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion.

Bibliography: publications about Orville Peck

Dear JJPMaster; thank you for your wiki-contributions. Just like yourself, I learn something new about Wiki-World almost everyday. Today you will learn about bibliographic articles:

https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Bibliographies Please take a look at another bibliographic article, that I contributed to recently: https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/John_Mearsheimer_bibliography .

I respectfully ask you to restore my article https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:List_of_publications_about_Orville_Peck , so that other wiki-editors can contribute to improving it. This article will be listed/formatted as a bibliography article.

Thank you in advance, Walter Tau Walter Tau (talk) 14:48, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Walter Tau: A few things. Firstly, I was not aware that bibliographies could be lists of publications about people before now, so thank you for that. However, your article still cannot be accepted (note that I have not deleted it; just declined it at Articles for Creation, so you can resubmit it at any time), for a few reasons:

1. Your article, as it stands, fails to demonstrate that it passes the notability criterion for stand-alone lists, since the only citations are the publications themselves. That criterion says that any list, including a bibliography, must demonstrate that the group in question has received significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject (sig/cov). To quote from the guideline:

   Topical bibliographies are lists of relevant books, journals and other references on a specific topic. The lead of a topical bibliography should establish the notability of the bibliography by citing at least two sources that demonstrate that relevant books, journals and other references on a specific topic have been discussed as a group. (emphasis mine)

   In other words, you must not demonstrate that individual members of the collection have sig/cov, but that the collection as a whole does.
2. I stand by my decline of the article as violating What Wikipedia is not, since it appears that the list was compiled directly from some database, and includes seemingly every publication on the topic, including many duplicates. You have as yet failed to demonstrate that your article does not improperly use Wikipedia as an indiscriminate collection of information, as I alleged in my comment while declining the article.

However, I have partially reversed my renaming of the page after rereading the relevant guidelines. Either way, you can continue to make edits to the draft article, since it has not been deleted, and resubmit it if you wish. And if you wish for an impartial opinion, I suggest that you ask on the Articles for Creation help desk. JJP_Master (she/they) 15:26, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@JJPMaster: thank you for getting back to me quickly. Today I learned, that there are notability criteria for bibliographic articles. A "list of his songs" would definitely meet the notability criteria (and it is provided in the article itself https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Orville_Peck#References), but I am less sure about a "list of publications about him" would qualify.

However, I came up with another idea: if you scroll down this webpage https://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Lady_Gaga , you will see a "Literary sources" section. These are publications about Lady Gaga, which are not cited in the article. This list is limited to what the editor thought were the most important publications - it is not an exhausting list. What do you think about making a similar small "Literary sources" section for Orville Peck? Walter Tau (talk) 16:34, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Walter Tau: That likely would be fine, and I advise that you be bold. However, if your addition is reverted, you should come to a consensus on the talk page (Talk:Lady Gaga). JJP_Master (she/they) 18:30, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

JJPMaster, Walter Tau: If I may ... that section at Lady Gaga seems to me to be mistitled. It's a list of book sources. In any case, the proposed list of sources about Orville Peck is entirely or almost entirely journalism/magazines/fansites. If there are any extended treatments of him in books that are in there and haven't been used as references in the article, they should be used that way, not simply listed; but are there any? Walter Tau has been bold multiple times. There's an existing section at Talk:Orville Peck (which I think is what you meant to link to, JJPMaster), where Walter Tau has responded once. Walter Tau, if you can find any good sources about Peck within that list of database hits that are not yet cited in the article, please list them in that section. Since not everyone has access to the databases, that would be really useful. Yngvadottir (talk) 02:48, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

@Yngvadottir: I wasn’t aware of the prior talk page discussion, so thank you for showing me that. So, Walter Tau, please seek consensus on Talk:Orville Peck before adding any of these sources en masse. And if you end up adding it, please read our guideline on external links first, and please do not just copy your full draft in there, since my points about Wikipedia not being a directory still stand.

Biased removal of content?

Hi how are you? I recently had an edit instantly removed by you as you claimed it was "Not helpful" the irony being it was a detailed breakdown on a conspiracy. Let me ask, were you the initial poster of the conspiracy? How is any claims referencing a memecoin to a government department allowed on here? I'd love for some rationality from your side. 120.22.151.155 (talk) 03:13, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

Although I do agree that there is no conspiracy like that, I removed it nevertheless. Three reasons:

1. You did not provide any reliable sources for the existence of this as a major conspiracy theory,
2. You wrote it in a very non-neutral tone, using loaded political language, and
3. Even if this were a real conspiracy theory and written neutrally, it likely would not belong in the lead of the article, as we at Wikipedia try to avoid giving undue weight to fringe theories.

Meanwhile, the part that you removed, namely, that DOGE is a backronym for Dogecoin, is undisputed. JJP_Master (she/they) 03:16, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

That's fine, when i first started the edit the conspiracy was there directly stating it was a "pump and dump" so i addressed the statement and provided insight. Which is what i thought this place was about. "DOGE is a backronym" IT is not though, look at any government acronym and their names, do you mean to tell me FBI is a backronym for 'fining black individuals' ? If you check the edit history you will see somebody had wrote it was pump and dump, while i was editing you must have changed it to the doge backronym.

anyway appreciate your response, cheers. 120.22.220.169 (talk) 03:24, 15 November 2024 (UTC)

I can't seem to find any edit alleging such a conspiracy in the page history. And as for DOGE being a backronym, that claim in the article is sourced, so you will likely need consensus on Talk:Department of Government Efficiency before removing it.

Potential misfire

I'm assuming that this was a misfire? — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 02:18, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

@Red-tailed hawk: Correct, I'm sorry. We've been dealing with a lot of one specific kind of vandalism ("Mario Thomas Barros" --> "Mario Luigi Bros") from IPs, so I instinctively reverted the edit without realizing that it was actually the reversion of the vandalism I thought the edit itself was.

Not a problem. — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 02:21, 16 November 2024 (UTC)

Question from VincentWikkiCook on Masaru Emoto (06:31, 24 November 2024)

Google Scholar has many studies correcting this misinformation on Maseru Emoto work

Abstract The hypothesis that water "treated" with intention can affect ice crystals formed from that water was pilot tested under double-blind conditions. A group of approximately 2,000 people in Tokyo focused positive intentions toward water samples located inside an electromagnetically shielded room in California. That group was unaware of similar water samples set aside in a different location as controls. Ice crystals formed from both sets of water samples were blindly identified and photographed by an analyst, and the resulting images were blindly assessed for aesthetic appeal by 100 independent judges. Results indicated that crystals from the treated water were given higher scores for aesthetic appeal than those from the control water (P = .001, one-tailed), lending support to the hypothesis.

Vincent Cook --VincentWikkiCook (talk) 06:31, 24 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia! However, I do not believe that this journal, Explore, is a reliable source. Our article on it says,

Explore has been heavily criticized both for the content it publishes and the beliefs of its editorial team. Its self-description and author information explicitly includes pseudoscientific topics well outside the mainstream of medical practice. Critics have noted this willingness to publish work in areas lacking a scientific basis, and have labelled it a "quack journal" which "doesn't limit itself to just one quackery, the way [the journal] Homeopathy does", a publisher of "truly ridiculous studies", and as a "sham masquerading as a real scientific journal".

I advise that you seek consensus on Talk:Masaru Emoto before making any changes citing this source, as there are likely to be objections. JJP_Master (she/they) 06:37, 24 November 2024 (UTC)
