You just stay around to keep the tools, you just stay around to keep the tools! You think that we're all fools, you just stay around to keep the tools! Making minute edits every year, you make minute edits every year! We can see it's very clear, you make minute edits every year! Users such as yourself who make a significantly low amount of edits just to keep your administrative tools sicken me and many others. Just give up the tools already!!! What are you holding on to them for anyways!! What a selfish thing to do!!

Sorry, meant to write this last night and my battery ran out just as I was wrapping up. I'm not quite sure what you mean by "entailed in the male line"; the barony of Cromwell was created by writ of summons, so heritable by heirs general, rather than heirs male. The situation on Cromwell's death is exactly that described inAbeyance#History: no account is taken of the relative seniority of daughters, so the title lapses when their are coheirs. (I rewrote the phrase "could not be split between two female heirs" because to me that implies there are circumstances under which a peerage could be split.) Payling just says "elevated to the Peerage as Lord Cromwell, a promotion facilitated by Neville's death four weeks earlier", so I don't feel that I broke source-text integrity on the rewrite (I wouldn't defile one of your articles like that!). Indeed, Cokayne says on p. 554, note "b" that Bourchier "was not a coheir himself", so I'm reluctant to describe him as "remaining heir", as the article does now. I don't want to encumber Neville's article with legal finicking that's rather tangential to the man himself, but I do think the phrasing should reflect peerage law a little more closely; I'd like to hear your thoughts.
As you saw, I spun up a stub onHumphrey Bourchier, 1st Baron Cromwell, which you might be able to pad out from some of the sources you've used, especially Payling. It looks as though Payling is writing his biography for HoP (he must have been in the Commons as well before 1461), which will make interesting reading when it comes out. There's an episode in his history which I don't quite understand: Bourchier becomes chamberlain of the receipt again at Edward's accession in 1461. In 1464, John Leynton, who as the legal mind among Ralph, Lord Cromwell's executors had presumably been sparring with Neville & Bourchier, is appointed auditor of the receipt, and in the next year receives, fide theCalendar of Patent Rolls, "a writing of Humphrey Bourgchier, knight, lord Cromwell, one of the chamberlains of the receipt of the Exchequer, under his seal at arms dated 31 August, 5 Edward IV, granting to the said John for life the said office of one of the chamberlains of the receipt of the Exchequer with the appointment of one of the ushers of the Exchequer and other officers, as granted to himself by letters patent dated 17 July, 4 Edward IV". Apparently Humphrey wasn't supposed to be alienating his office, as the writing is enrolled along with "pardon to the said Humphrey and John of their trespasses in this matter; and confirmation to the said John for life of the said office and all fees thereof." That seems rather relevant to the state of the settlement in the 1460s, and I'm a bit surprised it didn't come into Payling's piece!
Richard Beauchamp, 2nd Baron Beauchamp may also be of interest to you given yourrecent work: there's an unsourced paragraph there that brings his wife's adultery into the trial of Burdet and Stacy, although theCroyland Chronicle is ambiguous about which Lord Beauchamp's wife was implicated (the 1st or 2nd).
As always, I enjoy reading your historical articles, which are both lucid and full of pertinent detail. Cordially,Choess (talk)13:29, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The first round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 26 February. As a reminder, we are no longer disqualifying the lowest-scoring contestants; everyone who competed in round 1 will advance to round 2 unless they have withdrawn or been banned from Wikipedia. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receivetournament points at the end of each round. Unlike theround points in the main WikiCup table, which are reset at the end of each round, tournament points are carried over between rounds and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers.This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far.
Round 1 was very competitive compared with previous years; two contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and the top 16 contestants all scored more than 500 round points. The following competitors scored more than 800 round points:
Gog the Mild (submissions) with 1,168 round points, mainly from 4featured articles and 4good articles on old military history, in addition to an assortment of GA and FA reviews.
Generalissima (submissions) with 1,095 round points, mainly from 2 FAs, 2featured lists, 8 GAs, and 16Did You Know articles mainly on historical topics.
BeanieFan11 (submissions), with 866 round points from 20 GAs, 23 DYKs, and 2In the News articles primarily about athletes.
Sammi Brie (submissions), with 846 round points from 16 GAs about radio and TV stations, 45 GA reviews, and 3 DYKs.
Hey man im josh (submissions), with 816 round points from 5 FLs about sports and Olympic topics, 46 FL reviews, 3 ITN articles, and a large number of bonus points.
MaranoFan (submissions), with 815 round points primarily from 3 FAs and 1 GA about music, in addition to 9 article reviews.The full scores for round 1 can be seenhere. During this round, contestants have claimed 18 featured articles, 26 featured lists, 1 featured-topic article, 197 good articles, 38 good-topic articles and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 23 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 550 reviews.
Remember that any content promoted after 26 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2, which begins on 1 March. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it onWikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

Hi,
I see you put the edit warring template on my talk page. I see you did not do the same for the other editor. May I inquire as to why? They made the same number of reverts (12) as I did (12).
Thanks,Delectopierre (talk)20:10, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.So why not put a template on both of our talk pages? I was hoping that Fortuna had an answer that was something besides 'to single you out'. But I don't know how else to explain it.
highlight where you attempted to interact with Fortuna and they failed to communicateThis very thread. Fortuna made somewhere on the order of 50 edits over the course of two days -- including acknowledging other threads on this page -- but didn't reply to me. That's their choice, but I don't appreciate that my question wasn't acknowledged in any way.Delectopierre (talk)21:53, 20 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Given that every article inCategory:Opinion_polling_for_United_Kingdom_general_elections has this sort of detail, I think it was ill advised to attemptthis. Indeed, a cursory review of the articles inCategory:Opinion polling for elections shows this sort of format is very common in this genre of articles. I'm not suggesting anWP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS argument. Rather, such a massive removal from one of these articles should really come after some discussion to gain consensus. I will also note thatWP:NOTSTATS givesNationwide opinion polling for the 2012 United States presidential election as an appropriate way to handle this. The here discussed article follows that general format. --Hammersoft (talk)17:50, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Final warning: If you make any more reversions toOpinion polling for the next United Kingdom general election you will be blocked without further notice. You are directly contributing to disruption of the article which should have been clear with the discussion above. --Hammersoft (talk)20:24, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I noticed you made a few edits to a page I recently created for the National Braille Press. Thank you for helping me to improve the page! I saw that you changed a lot of the information to be more concise, but that you also removed the sections about their Innovation Award and Gala entirely. I assume the reasoning for this was the sources because I saw you commented about primary sourcing. If I find new sources for both of these sections, Award and Gala, could I add the information on them back onto the page? Let me know what you think would be appropriate.

I don’t see how or why you could have seen closing an ongoing RfC in a contentious topic as a non-admin as a good idea. The votes are 17 for, 11 against; while Wikipedia is not a democracy, most of the non-argument !votes are coming from theoppose side.Dronebogus (talk)10:46, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There is currently a discussion atWikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved.Dronebogus (talk)10:37, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is a formal warning forthis comment. Even if the link had worked it did not meet the expectations that exist for acontentious topic and was itself aggressive. I don't think you've been formally introduced to how contentious topics work, so I will be giving you the official template designed to introduce that topic below. Please let me know if you have any questions.Barkeep49 (talk)16:25, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I am glad to prove you wrong, not that that's a particularly onerous exercise. The quote you made wasn't of Dronebogus but was ofScottishFinnishRadish who was responding to a good faith question from Dronebogus about their conduct and was offering direct feedback to that question. Context matters and you, as someone in conflict with Dronebogus, saying the same thing is very different than SFR offering it as feedback after being asked about it. My choosing to correct issues when I see them doesn't mean there aren't other issues and it doesn't mean that I have an obligation to police the entire topic area. As a volunteer I do work where I think I can add value, have an interest, and have availability; I expect this to be similar for most of us here and that volunteer ethos is something I really cherish about the Wikipedia community.Barkeep49 (talk)16:49, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
to police the entire topic area, but you should have looked at the context of Fortuna's edit before you issued the warning.LEPRICAVARK (talk)16:59, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there! Appreciate you understanding my situation and lack of Afd knowledge. I do want to explain that usually use Afd for any article discussion related to merging or spliting or the like - though I usually stay clear. Some of my noms were mostly for mergers and went through though I've now been told there is another way for that which is not Afd. I have tried to get a convo started on article pages but, alas, nobody responses there which is quite frustrating.
I am still learning on articles and have mostly familiarized myself with the process but I'd like to play on the safe side more than go ahead on my own for the time being. The "lol", on my end, is just a way of expressing how... embarrassed I am, I guess, as to why I still don't fully understand Afd processes 😅 despite so many tries to. Far more complex that Categories and Lists which is my main area. Hope you are doing well! Sorry to drag you out from front of the fireplace!

The second round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 28 April at 23:59 UTC. To reiterate what we said in the previous newsletter, we are no longer disqualifying contestants based on how many points (now known as round points) they received. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receivetournament points at the end of each round. These tournament points are carried over between rounds, and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers at the end of each round.This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far. Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned.
Round 2 was quite competitive. Four contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and eight scored more than 500 points (including one who has withdrawn). The following competitors scored at least 800 points:
BeanieFan11 (submissions) with 1,233 round points from 24good articles, 28Did you know articles, and oneIn the news nomination, mainly about athletes and politicians
Thebiguglyalien (submissions) with 1,127 round points, almost entirely from two high-multiplierfeatured articles onBlack Widow (Natasha Romanova) andGrace Coolidge, in addition to two GAs and two reviewsHistory6042 (submissions) with 1,088 round points from fourfeatured lists about Michelin-starred restaurants, nine good articles and agood topic mostly on Olympic-related subjects, seven ITN articles, and dozens of reviewsGog the Mild (submissions) with 1,085 round points from three FAs, one GA, and four DYKs on military history, as well as 18 reviews
Arconning (submissions) with 887 round points, mostly from four FLs, six GAs, and seven DYKs on Olympic topics, along with more than two dozen reviewsIn addition, we would like to recognizeGeneralissima (submissions) for her efforts; she scored 801 round points but withdrew before the end of the round.
The full scores for round 2 can be seenhere. During this round, contestants have claimed 13 featured articles, 20 featured lists, 4 featured-topic articles, 138 good articles, 7 good-topic articles, and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 19 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 300 reviews.
Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed in Round 3. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points.

Hi. I'm putting this on your talk page rather than at the Help desk as I'm still playing around with the parameters in the second box to get as close as possible to what you asked for. I suspect that it is impossible to get the two quotes exactly lined up because the second box acts like a subsidiary of the first one even when given a 150% parameter for its width. Note how I've increased the font size in the second box. In previous versions, it was obvious the fonts reduced once embedded within the main box. To be honest, I suspect that the best way forward might be to cheat by putting both quotes together as if one, using line breaks. Compare the source codes. I hope this helps!Mike Turnbull (talk)17:32, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I noticed you moved a request to the bottom of the page, but that was not just a regular section. It was an active Trainee/Clerking request. If you look at thepage history, all such requests use level 4 headers and are placed in theActive requests section at the top. That is also what the page instructions say. Thanks! –DreamRimmer■12:48, 21 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I had a look at the underlying content dispute that led to the legal threat at AN/I and I am sorry to say that it looks like the editor who made the legal threat has a bit of a point. Much of this material looks like it's covered underWP:BLPGOSSIP and should probably be excluded. I have no intention of adding another revert to the edit war but I'd appreciate it if you would self-revert. Happy to discuss my reasoning further.Simonm223 (talk)17:11, 13 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hi,I saw your response to an editor who was requesting changes toZionism. In your response you suggested they start a discussion and obtain consensus. Such responses aren't helpful because nonWP:ECR editors aren't permitted to make edits in the topic area beyond simple edit requests perWP:ARBECR. In general if they are making any requests which are contentious they should simply be informed that their request hasn't been carried out.TarnishedPathtalk12:56, 14 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I had acknowledged that my RFAR was in title case when sentence case is mandated, in my addition to my statement. I made that mention about 24 hours before you did, but you may have reasonably not been looking at additions to statements. I thought that the name of an ArbCom filing, like the name of a Wikipedia article or section of an article, is a title and can reasonably be put intitle case.

There is something I have wanted to complain about to someone for months and I cannot suppress it any longer: have you noticed how poor the state of the articles about the queens consort of England is? There is not a single GA or FA in the list of pre-Union consorts. On top of that, somehow the poorest of these articles is the one about the militarily most active queen. There, that's off my chest now. I'll put that article on my ever-growing to-do list.Surtsicna (talk)23:17, 5 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion phase of the July 2025 administrator elections is officially open. As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:
We are currently in the discussion phase. The candidate subpages are open to questions and comments from everyone, in the same style as arequest for adminship. You may discuss the candidates atWikipedia:Administrator elections/July 2025/Discussion phase.
On July 23, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use theSecurePoll software to vote, which uses asecret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote totals cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's totals during the election. You must beextended confirmed to vote.
Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last approximately four days, or perhaps a little longer. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on theresults page (you may want to watchlist this page) and transcluded to themain election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose), and must also have received a minimum of 20 support votes. Because this is a vote and not a consensus, there are nobureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").
Any questions or issues can be asked on theelection talk page. Thank you for your participation. Happy electing.

Hi, thanks for closing the discussion. I understand the close, but I'm a bit confused about the warning; I've read the page you linked;WP:Disruptive editing, in full, and I don't understand why I have been warned. The examples given on that page are:
Is tendentious: continues editing an article or group of articles in pursuit of a certain point for an extended time despite opposition from other editors.
I have edited the article once, after the active discussion in which I replied was archived by an involved editor for no reason. This seems to describe the behaviour of the editor I reported.
Is unwilling or unable to satisfy Wikipedia:Verifiability; Engages in "disruptive cite-tagging"
Irrelevant
Fails to engage in consensus building: repeatedly disregards other editors' questions or requests for explanations concerning edits or objections to edits; repeatedly disregards other editors' explanations for their edits.
I have never done any of those things on the article or talk page;
Fails to recognize, rejects, or ignores community input: resists moderation and/or requests for comment, continuing to edit in pursuit of a certain point despite an opposing consensus from impartial editors.
There was no consensus and I've never resisted anyone.
In my view, I reported an editor that reverted another editor 4 times in a row, that archived an active discussion immediately after I disagreed with them, that didn't addressed the points in my comment even after I unarchived the discussion, and that kept not cooperating in the consensus-building process.
Could you kindly explain which of my edits were disruptive? It clearly seems I've done something wrong without knowing it, and I'd like to avoid repeating the same mistake.FaviFake (talk)15:18, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
you've missed the most important sentence: Editors may be accidentally disruptive
If this is supposed to be in chronological order, it is wrong.It started over a change to the format of a See Also link at the bottom of a recently promoted Featured Article. This lead to a disagreement that was rightly continued on the Talk Page. Rather than engaging in this discussion FaviFake starts an edit war.
[E]ngaging in this discussionwas the very first thing I did.
Technicallythe discussions were in fact deleted for more than 2 hours. I'm not sure if this mistake, which i haveexplained and corrected had anything to do with the closure.I'm genuinely at a loss.FaviFake (talk)16:54, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]FaviFake starts this thread at ANI, which includes erroneous accusations of deleted discussions

Again, please refrain from undoing edits to this article. This article is completely incorrect. It is riddled with factual errors. It includes incorrect dates, incorrect names and incorrect locations, and whole passages have been copied from poorly-researched articles.

I did not want to make a reply comment on the coordinator page because I did not want to make it into a big deal or any type of contention. Nor did I want to appear to be critical. Since you commented, I thought I would just leave you a note on the side instead.
I occasionally struggle with templates that are somewhat out of the ordinary and other programming tasks, unlike some others such as Hawkeye7 who have more skill and experience with such tasks. I actually tried to change the alphabetical order and for some reason was not getting it done without deleting some lines. I saw no reason to mention that generally in a reply. Hawkeye7 is right, the bot does not do it and it is not in the instructions, just in the introduction to the voting page. I am reasonably sure that is meant to show neutrality. Also, I forgot about the tally box and I suppose the others did too. The bot also does not do that but Hawkeye 7 has written that he will change that. In my experience, it has magically appeared each year. So in view of the fact there were only five candidates, and I did not want to spend more time trying to change the listings, I gave up on alphabetizing of the entries.
TomStar81 is right that the project "has seen better days" in one sense. There were more coordinator candidates that coordinator slots for some years in the past. Now, the project could use more coordinators. The number of coordinators for the project was set up at 10 plus the lead so that there would be enough coordinators to handle all of the tasks and make some other writing and editing contributions, even if a few coordinators participated only sparingly. As it is, the number of coordinators has been declining over the past few years. We are at a low with only five candidates. Luckily, the project also has had some coordinator-type work from a few coordinator emeriti, former coordinators and experienced users such as yourself. That's not really enough to do all the work of the project, especially promptly. On the other hand, many projects now exist in name only with no coordinators or guidance. They may have an occasional random comment on the talk pages but that is about all.
If you may wish to be added to the coordinator group, the lead coordinator can co-opt new coordinators at any time before the next election and I think would do so gratefully after a request. I hesitate to suggest you add yourself to the list at this late date. However, I think that nobody would object if you did so. Also, you would assuredly get the one vote that is needed to be elected this time around.
Thanks for all your good work for the project and Wikipedia in general.Donner60 (talk)21:45, 26 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
