I've swapped the pic around - any better?-- Seahamlass 20:30, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I've tinkered again... This is really, really strange. At peer review etc, there hasn't been any problems. This format was taken directly from an FA-status feature, and it worked fine for me until now. (Actually, it is still working fine for me on this computer...)-- Seahamlass 20:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Phew! Sorry about that! Glad we got there in the end.-- Seahamlass 20:44, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Just a quick question - is it still OK? I tinkered again with that section today, and just wanted to check. Also, is there anything more I can do to earn your support?-- Seahamlass 14:58, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

Many thanks for your review. I'll give the lead another look and maybe go for peer review. Can't go to FAC yet, nuthatch already there, might be my first ever FA fail!

WP:FOOTY discussion

Hi Peanut, not to sound annoying or anything, but I've recently started a discussion regarding the names of Brazilian clubs on wikipedia (here) and considering the scale and importance of the clubs involved and the fact that there is no formal move request, I thought it might be a good idea to inform some of the regular WP:FOOTY contributors in order to get a consensus and not just a few opinions. So if you could take a second to express your opinion, it would be appreciated, cheers. BanRay 22:24, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

RE:Bradford City GA review

Regarding this I don't think I'm you're man for this one. I've nominated FACs before which I thought were cast iron and which ended up with 100% oppose. The only suggestion I'd make is ensure that every single reference is accurate.

Generally when I've seen FA revs they tend to check every single reference whereas in GA it tends to be a random sampling to check there's none that obviously don't work. Otherwise good luck. BigHairRef | Talk 00:53, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

RE:Scottish expatriate footballers

I've deleted some players from the 'Scottish expatriate footballers' section because they've been put in there just because they have played outside Scotland.

Songs for the Deaf GA fail

It's been a few days or so since Songs for the Deaf was failed and that was for three reasons.

1. Breadth of coverage - you mentioned editors had voiced concerns and that the article seems fairly short. It's somewhat hard to understand what is meant. Compared to a huge amount of GA album articles, Songs for the Deaf is relatively average. Granted it is a famous album, but has surprisingly little online regarding the recording and such. From merely viewing other articles, it seems the coverage should have made it an easy pass (See Over the Rainbow (Connie Talbot album) and Mate. Feed. Kill. Repeat., promoted to GA in the same week SftD was failed).
3. Stability - a lot of changes were made, granted, but surely this is a good thing? And changes are planned, but a lot of those changes relied on it being promoted to GA in order for an FA push.
5. Images - not a clincher for GA, but if you felt it need more images, you could have asked for it among the many minor edits you requested.

This isn't meant to be seen as a critique of your reviewing methods or a plead for Songs for the Deaf to get a second chance. You certainly improved the article and for that I'm thankful, but maybe be a little less harsh on future articles, as I'm sure if Songs for the Deaf was drawn against one of the reviewers for the two articles I cited earlier, it'd be a GA already. Red157(talk • contribs) 00:42, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for replying to me so quickly. If it is truly down to breadth of coverage then I guess that bodes well for the future (Those plans in place for a sections about the tour/songs). I too am glad that getting a GA is becoming more difficult and was just slightly peeved that other reviewers were still passing unpassable articles. Don't worry, I won't go nominating it againt any time soon. Red157(talk • contribs) 10:05, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

ordering of cat page links on bios

Hi. Wikipedia-wide, listing cat page links chronologically is not a common practice, and what is wrong is for a particular wikiproject to assert a particular style at odds with wikip-wide practice. Having said this though, there is no fully established and accepted way to list cat page links, and the idea of listing chronologically is an intriguing one (I hadn t considered till your message). Cat pages should certainly not be listed by perceived importance, as this breaches WP:NPOV, but chronological listing obviously doesn t breach this in any way, and it also better addresses that the names of cat pages can change and listing them alphabetically is utterly random. Chronological ordering has an order that is non-bias - sounds like just the thing - the question though is can it become as widely accepted across wikip as alphabetical or by perceived importance?

That was always the trouble with Mr Nelson, that he included good edits in with the disruptive stuff, so it wasn't obvious vandalism. That's why I've only been warning this one about the metadata deletion, which is clearly vandalism. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 20:35, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Re: Kirsten Dunst

I hope you meant this, if not, I'll keep looking. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:23, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Alright, I ended up fixing the sentence in the Career section. As for the lead, I ended up removing like three films, but the other ones are notable for her career and therefore should stay in the lead. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:30, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Question: Are you talking about paragraph 1, sentence 3 ---> "In 1990, Dunst starred in The Bonfire of the Vanities, in which she played Tom Hanks' daughter"? Because, the first two sentences do have context. Its cool, I mean you are the reviewer and you have the "power" if the article passes or not. :P --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:56, 8 August 2008 (UTC)

Hopefully, I got what you meant. If not, I'll keep trying. Question: Would it be subtle if this sentence read like this ---> "Dunst had a small role in the 1990 film, The Bonfire of the Vanities, in which she played Tom Hanks' daughter" or like this ---> "Dunst had a small role, in which she played Tom Hanks' daughter in the 1990 film, The Bonfire of the Vanities"? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:20, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

Okay, the Bonfire of the Vanities explains that she had a small role, in which she played Tom Hanks' daughter. If you want it removed, I'll remove it. Now, for the Virgins Suicides, I added a little more info. Finally, what's wrong with mentioning films that shes appeared in? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:20, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I get what you mean. Alright, I hope now, it goes with what your stating. Anyways, I doubt anyone is familiar with her being the voice of young Anastacia in the film. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:48, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

I'll do a B-class review on it as soon as I get chance, and happy to contribute to any further review, but just logging off now. I've been doing quite a lot of article assessment lately. I want to get the Unassessed articles down to zero for the England task force, although even that won't tell the whole story as I know there's a lot out there that haven't been tagged at all. But of the articles we have tagged at WP:EFTF, we are at around 95% assessed, which isn't bad. (btw I thought we deserved a shortcut, hence I grabbed WP:EFTF. Not sure if we're supposed to tell anyone, but the page didn't exist so it seemed OK to do) --Jameboy (talk) 23:54, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Albert White (basketball)/GA1

I have added back the hatnote per WP:NAMB. It seems to me that with three athletes on the dab page a link could easily direct someone to the page with text like "many remember Albert White as one of the great athletes of his generation." This is a new article and who knows what types of links may direct here in the future, but piped links referring to him as an athlete instead of a basketball player could easily lead a reader to the wrong place. If I am misinterpreting the directions under this part of the page let me know.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 13:01, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Technically, that is how that section reads, so you are correct. I am just thinking that with three athletes someone might be looking for one of the others when clicking on this one. It is your final decision to make since you are in charge here. I don't see a problem with an additional hatnote, but understand its removal. I think adding it would do no harm, but removing it might be slightly more in line with guidelines.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 20:58, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

History article

Was looking at History of Bradford City A.F.C., one thing I noticed was the use of commas seemed a bit inconsistent in places (sorry, it's the sort of thing I do notice). E.g. in the Early successes section

Several football clubs, including Bradford (Park Avenue) also adopted the code needs one after "including BPA" to pair the one before it

James Whyte, a sub-editor of the Bradford Observer met with needs one after "Observer", likewise

one of the club's centre-halves Peter O'Rourke was appointed manager needs a pair round "Peter O'Rourke"

etc. And in the cite-templates, you've fairly consistently put newspapers and club websites as publisher rather than work. I'd be happy to go through it and sort them out if you like (I don't mean re-punctuate the whole thing or anything stupid, just add the odd comma where one is obviously missing and fix the cites), or shall I mention it at the FAC so you can either disagree or do it yourself, or what? cheers, Struway2 (talk) 08:52, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

If you look at the talk page, the confusion shown at Template talk:Cite news#work= vs. publisher= and Template talk:Cite news#Example? proves how unhelpful the documentation for {{tl:Cite news}} is. However, the Telegraph & Argus is one of many works published by Newsquest Media Group, and Bradford City official website is a work published by Bradford City AFC, so logically if you refer to the Telegraph & Argus or to BCAFC official site they should be referred to as works (at least in my opinion; if no-one else queries it then perhaps I'm wrong). As you replied to the hyphen thing at the FAC page I'll answer that there. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 22:12, 21 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Michigan Wolverines men's basketball/GA1

I have responded at Talk:Michigan Wolverines men's basketball/GA1. If you are promoting GAs, please try to promote this article before Albert White. This is a much better 100th GA.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 06:02, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

FYI, Michigan Wolverines men's basketball is up for GAC2.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 15:52, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

College football GANs

Just want to thank you for tackling the task of those three GANs I submitted. I know it can be rather dense, but it is greatly appreciated. I hate to ask anything more, but I'm also preparing 2005 Sugar Bowl to face the FAC gauntlet, and if you have a spare moment, I'd really appreciate any thoughts or comments you might have on that article as well -- particularly in regard to its readability. Again, thank you. JKBrooks85 (talk) 21:29, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Okay; changes have been made to 1986 Peach Bowl. Let me know if it meets your approval. Thanks! JKBrooks85 (talk) 23:04, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. I believe that I also need to apply the convert template to measurements in the other two as well. JKBrooks85 (talk) 00:29, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Sorry about that; 1984 Independence Bowl fixes have been made. It's been kinda crazy lately. JKBrooks85 (talk) 07:37, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Just a note to say thanks for your comments at the Scott Carson peer review. I'll try to address the points you made sometime during this week. Cheers. --Jameboy (talk) 23:31, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

Arsenal FC squad

Hi there - you recently contributed to this thread at WT:WPF. Could you possibly spare the time to contribute the same thoughts to Talk:Arsenal F.C.? I'm having to deal with one particularly zealous user there who is calling me a vandal (while themselves deleting the discussion) and more reasoned and measured contributions to the discussion would be very much welcome. Thanks. Qwghlm (talk) 22:26, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Bradford City FA/GA

Croatia national team: Reply

Thanks for your message. I understand what your trying to say, but I still feel you may have a slightly blinded idea about the situation. I most likely will take this to GA if it fails FA now. But the fact remains that the nomination candidate page is almost deliberately being treated differently compared to that of other pages. It's similar to what I said on the talk page of the project. Some people merely react to a nomination based on the subject itself, not on the merits of the article. Surely one has to admit that there is a little bit of unnecessary flame going on. Countless issues were addressed on the nomination page and I fixed them all up completely. I even went through all the trouble to find extra references based on the most obvious and non-published rare information (regarding the volatility statement). On top of that, I tweaked everything to the way it was recommended, some of the users even edited the page themselves to fix it up. Yet there was still not a single support in return. The image issue is more ridiculous than anything I've ever seen! One user asked for an appropriate source on some of the images, and I clearly provided the sources with relevant links and author information etc. He then commented and said that some images may have inappropriate copyright tags on them. I asked him to specify such and recommend which tags should be added, his reply was an instant 'Oppose' based on 'inappropriate image use' even though I had clearly met all his stated comments and requirements.

Surely you can't call that fair. I assume good faith where I see good faith. I see good faith in you right now trying to resolve this situation, but I don't see or assume good faith in users who ruin the nomination with unstoppable 'Opposes' based on issues which are clearly already resolved. Don't even get me started on Fasach Nua. All I will say that as usual, it is evident that the majority of people (I'd estimate about 95%) disagree with his argument and it is therefore not an applicable one.

Suggestion re: BCAFC league table

I've been reading a few of the club season articles recently. The quality of these varies quite a bit, and many seem to attract new users who seem to use them as fan pages, though we all have to start somwehere I guess. But it's good to see that Bradford City A.F.C. season 2007–08 is a Good Article and I think it sets a good benchmark for this type of article. Just a quick suggestion regarding the league table in the article though. As the article is about Bradford City's season, would a grey table with a single claret and/or amber band across Bradford's row not be more appropriate? All the other colouring is appropriate to the promoted/relegated/play-off teams only (fine for an article about the division/league as a whole), but in terms of this article I want Bradford's league position to leap out at me ... or maybe not :-) Just a thought. I've managed to tag another 60 or so lists for WP:EFTF since the last article count was run, which makes me wonder how many more are out there. Certainly there must be hundreds more articles untagged so I'll keep plugging away. I've also made a start on the PR comments for Scott Carson and should be done fairly soon hopefully, so thanks again for your comments. --Jameboy (talk) 10:53, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

I added an amber band and removed the existing colours, see what you think. I tried to bold the club name as well but this seemed to break the template. By the way I was wondering if you had any thoughts on 2007–08 in English football, which I've started tinkering with recently (although there is still much to do). I've moved the bulleted list of events into prose (still need to lose a few bullet points though), and have generally tried to create sub-sections for the various competitions that point to the relevant daughter articles. I'm thinking about adding an "off-field events" section, that could possibly include stadia developments. The lists of deaths, retirements and managerial changes bother me though as I haven't a clue what - if anything - to do with them. Any input would be welcome. --Jameboy (talk) 20:36, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Hope I'm doing this right. His D/O/B is 21/11/1989, not 05/05/1991. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.64.84.48 (talk) 20:32, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Rothmans

Cheers for the offer of assistance. Literally all I need is the page numbers from the 87/88 and 88/89 editions upon which the preceding season's appearance/goals data for Norwich City are found, so that I can reference those seasons in the table in Steve Bruce's article. If you were able to find those page numbers for me that would be fantastic!!!!!! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 19:35, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Thomas Farnall

Created a very stubby stub for Thomas Farnall, who's one of yours. Maybe your books know more about him than mine do, suspect they can't know less :-) cheers, Struway2 (talk) 16:28, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Both Matthews and Joyce have 1871. If it was just Matthews, I might think 1876 was more likely. If he joined Blues in 1895 aged 24, I'd expect more than one previous club, especially the way he went on to change club every five minutes, whereas aged 19 I wouldn't. And to be still playing at 35+ wasn't all that common in those days. Dunno. cheers, Struway2 (talk) 17:07, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Re: Contractions

Sorry about that, I was just going with the British English way, since Coldplay are a British band and stuff. Totally sorry for my part. I've got the stuff for "In My Place". --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:36, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Alright, again, sorry for my part. The songs were my first in the British English style, just wanted to go by that. Also, I responded to your comments at "God Put a Smile upon Your Face". --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 21:46, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Cool then. I responded to both reviews. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:04, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
