Hello, Grutness. Thank you for your contributions, including recent edits atList of metonyms. Unfortunately a piece you added as a reference uses the phrase "the Bombay Hills" but does not define it. References need to discuss the metonym as a metonym. SeeUse–mention distinction for discussion of the difference. Happy editing,Cnilep (talk)02:47, 12 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Grutness,

In late 2024, I expanded someone else’s Start-class article called Bombardment of Greytown,  which, after some changes by Donner60 and others, was declared a B Level article by Hawkeye7. In the course of the run-up to that B level bestowment, I had received, thanks to my watchlist, no less than 13 email notifications alerting me to changes made, ending on 7 December 2024.

Having received the B Level imprimatur and having ceased to receive any more email alerts as to further activity, I assumed no more changes were being made. But, recently, I glanced at the article, and I noticed substantial additions have been made to it in 2025 by History1138 and a warning template added to the top by you that said, “This article's tone or style may not reflect the encyclopedic tone used on Wikipedia. etc.” Again, my watchlist never alerted me that any of this was happening. Hence, my delay in reaching out to you. (I will also be contacting History1138 soon.)

I looked at the description of what can cause tone problems in an article (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Writing_better_articles#Tone) and did not see how I might have violated this cautionary. Perhaps you could point out some examples in the piece of such failings. I would also like to know if you can shed any light on how that template was added and those additions made to the article without my watchlist having alerted me by email. I’m guessing it was just some sort of pilot-error on the part of a first-timer.Will-DubDub (talk)17:06, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Will-DubDub: The main problem is parts like "An obscure and seemingly minor incident in which no one was killed or even injured, this event has had a secret history, hidden — until now — for over a hundred years. And it has had a major impact on American foreign policy for almost as long." It reads like the sort of thing you'd find in clickbait. It may be accurate, but it's not a very encyclopaedic way of putting it - better something more neutral like "Although this incident was minor, it had a major impact on American foreign policy." Reading theough it again, most of it is a good article, but that bit in particular stood out as a red light.

As to the reason why you didn't get alerted, I've no idea - someone over at theWP:Village Pump might be able to answer that one.Grutness...wha?02:09, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, Grutness,

Upon reflection, I think you’re absolutely right about that line, and I just changed it to your suggested alternative.

You have inspired me to seek higher rating levels, including Feature status!

I will check with Village Pump about why my watchlist didn’t inform me of the changes.

Speaking of changes, I’m going to ask Historyguy1138 to remove most of his additions. I think they slow down unnecessarily the run up to the titular incident and make an already long and complicated piece even more so. Also, one line, “Solon Borland . . . was forced to resign,” is incorrect. Borland was severely reprimanded by Secretary of State Marcy and, in a fit of pique, then resigned. “Whether or not Marcy’s note was actually intended to induce Borland’s resignation,” James Woods has written, “it had that effect.” (See Borland’s letter of resignation here: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=txu.059172149398109&seq=439. He was so angry with Marcy that he sent it over his head, directly to President Pierce.)Will-DubDub (talk)16:06, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

All the best with improving the article! And with finding out what is going on with the notifications!Grutness...wha?02:11, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! Hope to start improving on it right away and finding out what’s going on with those notifications! I’ve also been in contact with Historyguy1138, to thrash out some sort of agreement with him about his changes to the article. That said, where does that leave you and I with the tone template warning at the top of the article? Has the change I made to that red light passage satisfied your concerns, so that you’d be willing to take the template down once I come to an agreement with Historyguy1138?Will-DubDub (talk)22:00, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Done :) Once the problem was fixed you could have removed that yourself, though you were right that it was better to have either the person who put it there or an uninvolved editor do that. Good luck with Historyguy1138 :)Grutness...wha?23:58, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Historyguy1138 and I have come to a meeting of the minds over his changes to my B-level expansion of the Bombardment of Greytown.

The changes and additions are now mostly mine, inspired by suggestions from him and approved by him.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Historyguy1138&diff=prev&oldid=1288574147

The bulk of the changes involve my replacing the five initial paragraphs of the Prelude section with five new paragraphs. Then I added four graphs to the end of the article in two new sections: Post Bombardment Central America and Greytown’s Ultimate Fate. (The other changes are much smaller and described in the edit summaries for them.)

Thanks for all your previous help, and I hope you like the changes. I have sent similar notifications to Hawkeye7 and Donner60. Once I’ve heard back from all three of you and resolved any problems you’ve noticed, I am going to embark on an effort to increase the number of images in the article. I will inform you and the others when those additions are complete.Will-DubDub (talk)19:21, 5 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Will-DubDub: I didn't have an in-depth read of it, but from what I saw it looks very good. I made one minor alteration, in the capitalisation of the headings, which wasn't in line with theWP Manual of Style. Other than that, good work!Grutness...wha?03:37, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have now added the new images to this article — 22 of them. Thank you for the help with the headings. I have also alerted Hawkeye7, Historyguy1138, and Donner60.Will-DubDub (talk)21:50, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced and unimproved for over 15 years. Small island. Unlikely to find sources due to many islands with similar names. No other language's article has any citations either.

I live in the United States. I have never heard anyone say "I am going to see the physician". People here universally say "I am going to see the doctor." I think per common name we should move everything either to Category:Medical doctor, Category:American medical doctors, etc. or actually to even better reflect common name we should move everything toCategory:Doctors (medical);Category:British doctors (medical); Category:French doctors (medical), etc. The common name is not "medical doctor" it is clearly in modern English everywhere "doctor" but since doctor has multiple other meanings, it would be very confusing to use just doctor, but since medical is not part of the common name I think it would most reflect the actual common name to use Doctor (medical). There is the issue that in Britain there are "physicians", but they are a subset of doctors (medical) and not used as a synonym, but I think common use even in the US is such that American doctors (medical) or American medical doctors is the best name for even that category. There are some use differences, but no American would find the proposed name confusing, or even unexpected.John Pack Lambert (talk)13:35, 24 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Makes some sense, but what are they known as collectively in the United States? If they're called physicians rather than doctors, then the usual system (used in probably thousands of categories across Wikipedia) would be to use local usage, even if it varies from nation to nation (see, for instance, the categories for soccer/football/association football). Which is how they are now. If you think the American categories need changing, then propose them instead. "Doctors (medical)" might clear up the mess, but it would be better to run that past any connected WikiProjects before a mass renaming proposal.Grutness...wha?13:45, 24 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There is a distinction, at least historically in the UK, between physicians and surgeons, which is why some consultants are referred to as Dr Xyz and others as Mr/Ms Xyz.

Hello, Grutness. This message is being sent to remind you of significant upcoming changes regarding logged-out editing.

Starting 4 November, logged-out editors will no longer have their IP address publicly displayed. Instead, they will have atemporary account (TA) associated with their edits. Users with some extended rights like administrators and CheckUsers, as well as users with thetemporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will still be able to reveal temporary users' IP addresses and all contributions made by temporary accounts from a specific IP address or range.

How do temporary accounts work?

• When a logged-out user completes an edit or a logged action for the first time, a cookie will be set in this user's browser and a temporary account tied with this cookie will be automatically created for them. This account's name will follow the pattern:~2025-12345-67 (a tilde, year of creation, a number split into units of 5).
• All subsequent actions by the temporary account user will be attributed to this username. The cookie will expire 90 days after its creation. As long as it exists, all edits made from this device will be attributed to this temporary account. It will be the same account even if the IP address changes, unless the user clears their cookies or uses a different device or web browser.
• A record of the IP address used at the time of each edit will be stored for 90 days after the edit. Users with thetemporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right will be able to see the underlying IP addresses.
• As a measure against vandalism, there are two limitations on the creation of temporary accounts:
  • There has to be a minimum of 10 minutes between subsequent temporary account creations from the same IP (or /64 range in case of IPv6).
  • There can be a maximum of 6 temporary accounts created from an IP (or /64 range) within a period of 24 hours.

Temporary account IP viewer user right

• Administrators may grant thetemporary account IP viewer (TAIV) user right to non-administrators who meet thecriteria for granting. Importantly, an editor must make an explicit request for the permission (e.g. atWP:PERM/TAIV)—administrators arenot permitted to assign the right without a request.
• Administrators willautomatically be able to see temporary account IP information once they have accepted theAccess to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy viaSpecial:Preferences or via the onboarding dialog which comes up after temporary accounts are deployed.

Impact for administrators

• It will be possible to block many abusers by just blocking their temporary accounts. A blocked person won't be able to create new temporary accounts quickly if the admin selects theautoblock option.
• It will still be possible to block an IP address or IP range.
• Temporary accounts will not be retroactively applied to contributions made before the deployment. OnSpecial:Contributions, you will be able to see existing IP user contributions, but not new contributions made by temporary accounts on that IP address. Instead, you should useSpecial:IPContributions for this (see a video about IPContributions in a gallery below).

Rules about IP information disclosure

• Publicizing an IP address gained through TAIV access isgenerally not allowed (e.g.~2025-12345-67 previously edited as 192.0.2.1 or~2025-12345-67's IP address is 192.0.2.1).
• Publicly linking a TA to another TA is allowed if "reasonably believed to be necessary". (e.g.~2025-12345-67 and ~2025-12345-68 are likely the same person, so I am counting their reverts together toward3RR, but notHey ~2025-12345-68, you did some good editing as ~2025-12345-67)
• SeeWikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer § What can and can't be said for more detailed guidelines.

Useful tools for patrollers

• It is possible to view if a user has opted-in to view temporary account IPs via theUser Info card, available inPreferences →Appearance →Advanced options →Enable theuser info card
  • This feature also makes it possible for anyone to see the approximate count of temporary accounts active on the same IP address range.
• Special:IPContributions allows viewing all edits and temporary accounts connected to a specific IP address or IP range.
• Similarly,Special:GlobalContributions supports global search for a given temporary account's activity.
• The auto-reveal feature (see video below) allows users with the right permissions to automatically reveal all IP addresses for a limited time window.
