WikiProject WikiProject Latin and Hispanic heritage mass tagging

Hi Bunnypranav! I was wondering if you could have the bot place the WikiProject Latin and Heritage under these categories: Hispanic and Latino American people, American people of Haitian descent, American people of Guadeloupean descent, American people of Martiniquais descent, American people of Equatoguinean descent, but exclude Puerto Rican people from the mass tagging. Here is the consensus to include people of those descents into the WikiProject scope. Here is the template: {{WikiProject United States}}}} (with the parameter being HLA=yes). Thank you in advance! Erick (talk) 16:01, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Erick, I would love to be able to help with this task. I do also have a few questions to you. While making the lists of pages, what should be the depth of the categories to be included? Basically, how many levels of subcategories deep in the category tree should I search in the above categories to make the list? petscan:31676986 is only the pages which are directly in the above listed cats, while petscan:31677085 searches 5 levels deep. This needs to be carefully calculated to avoid over tagging of not related pages. PetScan also allows for the depth to be set per parent cat, i.e. for each cat you provided, how deep should it search customized to that cat. (Personal experience, 5 might be too deep, though you be the judge for figuring this out.)
Secondly, is {{WikiProject United States}} already included in these pages, if not, should it be added?
Apologies if this giant wall of technical text is overwhelming, I just wanted to list everything to avoid mistakes in the tagging. Thanks! ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 06:43, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks and no worries! I took a look at petscan and saw articles that wouldn't fit in the project scope like Colin Powell whose ancestries don't come from a country that we cover and I couldn't find the category that caused this. Since some categories are small like American people of Guadeloupean descent, I guess I can manually do those. So maybe just tag the categories for Hispanic and Latino American people and American people of Haitian descent just for now? Some pages have the US project banner already, while others don't, I wouldn't know which ones do or don't. Maybe add this to the exclusion page: WikiProject Hispanic and Latino Americans articles so it doesn't get re-tagged? And I'm fine with the subcats being set as is. Erick (talk) 16:41, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, instead of Hispanic and Latino American people, can the bot do Hispanic and Latino American society? Erick (talk) 16:50, 2 February 2025 (UTC) No that didn't work either, it included Andrew Jackson who again doesn't have ancestries from a country we cover. Just do Hispanic and Latino American people and American people of Haitian descent for now. Edit 2: I set the depth to "3" instead of "5" so that the bot doesn't accidentally cover articles that don't fall under the project scope. Also add these to the exclusion category: American people of Spanish-Jewish descent, American people of Asturian descent American people of Basque descent, American people of Canarian descent, American people of Catalan descent, American people of Galician descent,Guamanian people of Spanish descent, Hawaiian Kingdom people of Spanish descent, Louisiana Creole people of Spanish descent.[reply]
Here's a Petscan I did, which is more ideal.Erick (talk) 17:12, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hey @Magiciandude:, I'm a bit busy now, so I may file a BRFA in a day or two. By that time, I would appreciate if you could just spot check the pages in that petscan above to see if those 10,000~ pages need to be tagged, and if most of them have the US project tag in the talk as well (will make my job easy!), this will also minimize the possible extended trial in the WP:BRFA phase in case something goes wrong. (better safe than sorry!) ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 13:14, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Additionally, since this is a very large mass tagging job, I think we should get some explicit consensus about these categories of pages to be tagged. You can post this petscan query and link the categories in a new subheading under the above consensus section, possibly pinging its participants. This is just to ensure additional verification for the categories/pages listed. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 13:22, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, I completely understand. Pinging @Oscar .: to see what he thinks. Erick (talk) 18:44, 3 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Magiciandude I think it would be better if you add a talk notice to the wiki project talk taking some second opinions about the cats being mass tagged, or atleast a link to this page. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 11:12, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I will probably do it this Saturday. Erick (talk) 15:44, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
This is not because I doubt your listing is wrong, but just to take a few more opinions before this mass tagging. Thanks for understanding! :) ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 16:09, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the ping @Magiciandude, and Bunnypranav to help make sense of this. Long story short, last July we reactivated the project (which at that time was a task force of the USA project), and with a small consensus I moved the pages to the page that today is called WP:LATINOS, the problem is that in doing so, the original list of articles that linked to the banner was sort of lost. If we are going to start over, my suggestion would be to have a new banner and clasifications.

The benefit would be, as I think Magiciandude is starting to peek, is to have a better classification according to the definitions we have and also to have updated metrics of how many articles really exist there, the catch is, it sounds like a lot of leg work, but in all honesty, I think any help would be welcome, also suggestions on how to move forward on this. If you want we can continue on the project discussion page, thanks in advance, --Oscar_. (talk) 02:54, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the insights Oscar .. Once we have a template tag, parameters, and a list with least positive false positives, I am ready to go ahead with the tagging. I wouldn't mind having the discussion here, but if you do so, just make sure to post a notice to the project talk. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 04:27, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Great @Bunnypranav! If Magiciandude and I don’t get to it before the weekend, I’ll be starting the WikiProject thread next week, Oscar_. (talk) 05:13, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's best to do it on the project talk page so that way we can save the discussion for future reference whenever it gets archived. Erick (talk) 00:31, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Magiciandude Go ahead, feel free to copy the above section for some context as well. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 03:59, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Page Edit

I saw you edited a page I created "Dean Kaelin" and most everything was deleted. Can you explain why? I made sure there were links and additional information to back up everything written. I also made sure to look at several "like pages" to make sure the form, information, and tone was similar to ones already published on the site. Anna.kaelin (talk) 14:55, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Anna.kaelin, I'm a bit confused. I have never edited Dean Kaelin, see its history. Are you sure you got the right person? ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 14:57, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from JazzyOxygen (22:38, 8 February 2025)

Hello - I found a page of a professional athlete that said the following:

"After taking the ice hockey world by storm..."

and I edited that to have a more neutral point of view https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view to say:

"After gaining attention..."

However I received a message from a user saying my edit did not appear to be constructive and was reverted.

I don't think I broke any rules, but since I'm new I want to reach out and get your thoughts and suggestions for what I should do or how I could approach future edits? --JazzyOxygen (talk) 22:38, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @JazzyOxygen! My first quick glance at your edit shows that nothing is wrong. You did change it to a more neutral tone. The edit was reverted by @Freedoxm, let's see what they have to say.
On a side note, if you ever have such disagreements on content in the future, you can take the measures listed at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 04:14, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Signature

Hey, @Bunnypranav. I was wondering if you are able to change the font size in your signature as it can be quite hard to see for a person who may have low vision, like myself, and it can take a bit to be able to see the smaller text. A "font-size:10pt" (or 9pt) could work. Thanks, Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 05:43, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Cowboygilbert, I would be glad to chane it to be more accessible (once I get to my PC in a couple hours). Quick question, I didn't set a smaller size per se, does the monospace font make it look smaller? ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 10:05, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@Bunnypranav, I believe it is the font that changes the size. Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 17:48, 10 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
