Speedy deletion nomination of Middle Ring Road (Tianjin)
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Middle Ring Road (Tianjin) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. 98.74.156.204 (talk) 02:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC)
Beer by Country
I actually dont think Category:Beer by country is necessary. I have spent a lot of time sorting out classification in beer articles. And if you make changes in classification you must change all the articles not just a few of them, and discuss it first on the main beer page or the beer project page Wikipedia:WikiProject_Beer. I know some categories have x by nationality and similar, but this doesnt really fit into the classification guidelines, and the category is not yet unmangeably large. Justinc 13:27, 24 July 2005 (UTC) Also, articles should not appear in both a category and a subcategory, so everything in beer by country should have been removed from category beer.

Metal minerals category
Hi - just noticed your recent Category:Metal minerals and wondered about the rationale for it. Seems the vast majority of minerals have metals in their structure - or were you limiting your definition to base metals and precious metals or some such. Without further defining the cat is essentially redundant with Category:Minerals. I've not seen such a classification before - so am seeking clarification. Thanks, Vsmith 14:51, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

CASREF print problems
Hi,
I notice you are adding CASREF templates to many articles. However there is a reason that WP:Chem does not use this template in the infobox- it causes print problems in Firefox and some other browsers. If you click on "Print this article" or do a print preview you'll see what I mean - the ref expands out so the box fills up much of the page. We have a strict policy of no external refs in the chembox. I recently reported this problem to the Drugs WikiProject, they were unaware of it previously.
If you can find a better way to do this, I'd like to hear. We've considered an inline ref to an endnote that would link to the NIST site, but that's a bit clunky. Any better ideas? Walkerma 21:46, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
ChemInfoBox
I changed the Molar Mass section of your ChemInfoBox for Chemical ZnSe. You had listed 81.41 g/mol, but it is a known fact that the Molar Mass of any chemical is the sum of the Molar Masses of the constituent elements, so
Se Molar Atomic Mass = 78.963 g/mol Zn Molar Atomic Mass = 65.409 g/mol
The sum is :
144.452 g/mol
The NIST lists it at 144.35 g/mol,
so I went with the NIST listing instead.
I have seen that 81.41 listing on other websites, and I am just curious where you got your information from.
I can be reached at <A HREF=mailto:csdidier@mit.edu>csdidier@mit.edu</A>
Thankyou for the correction. I do not remember where it came from, but with hindsight it is obvious. Jaraalbe 11:39, 29 April 2006 (UTC)

Hi Jaraalbe, I saw your comment that SbH3 has used as a fumigant. Seems surprising given its extreme instability and the greater avaiability and effectiveness of PH3 - do you have a source? --Smokefoot 13:42, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the SbH3 comment - I might have read it here: [1]. Perhaps a comment on fumigant effectiveness should be added to the article? Jaraalbe 19:18, 9 May 2006 (UTC) Thanks, I am surprised but your source is better than my non-source so I will fix the report. --Smokefoot 03:51, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
Walcher of Lorraine
Hi there. I've added the "{{prod}}" template to the article Walcher of Lorraine, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Importance). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree, discuss the issues raised at Talk:Walcher of Lorraine. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
My reason is that your stub on Walcher of Lorraine duplicates a recently revised the article on Walcher of Malvern. I think you'll agree in doing away with the duplication. --SteveMcCluskey 20:28, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
I agree - do away with the Walcher duplication. Jaraalbe 20:41, 9 May 2006 (UTC). Perhaps change to a redirect? 21:25, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

III-V compounds
I know that the names of GaAs, InAs, InSb etc. are formally Gallium(III) arsenide etc. However they are almost always known unambiguously as Gallium arsenside, indium antimonide etc. Therefore, your correct renaming of the articles is not useful. Less useful still is misnaming to Gallium(II) arsenide. Sorry to have to complain at this - but can you please check your recent edits. Jaraalbe 07:04, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I wonder, what did you mean, when you added here [2] this:
'Silicon dioxide can be formed when silicon is exposed to oxygen (or air) at extremely high temperatures. This can occasionally happen naturally in fires, or in lightning strikes onto sand.'
I think that fires and lightnings are not a relevant example of reaction of silicon and oxygen (Talk: Silicon dioxide). --AB-fi 18:31, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Theta Beta Potata PUNK HOUSE Deletion Review
This article was first started by me and was deleted back in May '06. I was reading the punk house article and saw that the link for the TBP article was no longer red so I clicked on it and there was an article back up, started by another user. I dont know who started it because, it was deleted soon after I saw it. The decision made in the "Article for Deletion" debate should be reconsidered. The article is about a punk house not a fratenal organization. It seems that the debate, run by User:ChrisB and results were reported by User:Mailer Diablo. I will post this on their talk pages. This is the first time I have requested a deletion review so please let me know what else I need to do. If there is anything. I am on wikipedia frequently and I want to learn. Thanks.

Thanks for taking the trouble to edit Cuthbert Ottaway. But could you explain why you have deleted three links to descriptions of early FA Cup Finals on the grounds that they are "blacklisted"? Mikedash 09:23, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
- When I attempted to submits edits to Cuthbert Ottaway, Wikipedia said that links from a domain were blacklisted, and would not save the changes. When I removed the links, I could save the changes. I naively supposed that theere must be good reason for the "blacklisting". If you have more information about the blacklisting process and how useful it is, could you please inform me? Jaraalbe 06:16, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
- Hmmm. Well, going here [3] it seems that the page on hometown.aol devoted to the 2006 World Cup is infested with spam, or spyware, so the whole domain has been blocked to prevent it spreading via Wikipedia. Or something. Nothig to do with the pages I'd linked to, but it looks like we'll have to do without them, which is a pain but certainly not your fault. Mikedash 07:53, 15 November 2006 (UTC)

- A remarkably modern-sounding name for something being applied to articles on people who've been dead for centuries. You really think it's appropriate for Harold Godwinson ? Angus McLellan (Talk) 18:26, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, It is appropriate as a temporary holding category, until a more appropriate sub-category is available (Category
- Killed in battle / Monarchs killed in battle Anglo-Saxons killed in action ?) What would you find appropriate? Jaraalbe 19:33, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that rephrasing it is the answer. At many periods it would be of more use to record people who died in their beds, as it was considerably more unusual than dying by in war or by other sorts of violence. I can see that this is a useful category for modern wars, but I don't think it adds anything for the early modern period or before. Angus McLellan (Talk) 20:01, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

- Hm. Well, I'd suggest a "Category:Samurai killed in action" (or 'killed in battle'), which could go as a subcategory of "Pre-modern warriors killed in battle" or something like that. I'm not positive on what wording would be best to be most inclusive for warriors of other periods or places - European knights, etc. - but I'm sure something can be worked out. Thanks for your help.

Hi: Jaraalbe, I was wondering where you found out that Franklin was KIA? If there is a source I didn't notice. It'd make my "wikitask" of improving unknown MOH winners...

- In categorising many killed in action, probably I have made a small number of mistakes. The year of death (1873) was close to the year of the MOH action (1871). Apologies Jaraalbe 16:01, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Categories: Main & Sub
Hello,
This message is in regards to the Article on Penleigh Boyd. I had added the Categories, Accidental deaths (which is the Main one) and the Category, Road Accident Victims (which is a sub of that). I realize that, at present, this is a controversial move at this point. However, this issue has been a source of consternation with me for some time in Wikipedia.
As it is set up now, The Article on Penleigh Boyd would not be included in the category list of accidental deaths. The encyclopedia does not have the capability of collating all the various subcategories into one master list. In another instance, Cancer deaths, if I wanted to list all of the persons in the encyclopedia who died from Cancer, I would have to call up each separate cancer type individually.
In another example, you are a researcher planning a major study of suicide; you are a clinician confronted with a patient with multiple suicide attempts; you are a student trying to learn the various aspects of the whole issue of suicide; or, you are just ghoulish – who cares. Where do you start? After you’ve read everything anyone’s ever theorized about the subject, you go to the real wealth of information: Case histories. You go to Wikipedia, and you find “Suicide”. In this main article you click on “Persons who have committed suicide: and, bam! You have a wealth of case histories to peruse. Now, if you want to focus on persons who have committed suicide by a specific method, say, by firearm, or by hanging, you click on Suicides by firearm, and again, Bam! You have it! But for both of these examples to work, the Category, Suicides must be entered in ALL of the articles, as well as the sub-category specifying the method.
Now, in another example, if you were doing a study of the impact of firearms on a society, you would first want all persons who died by firearm (of course, there may be some who would not want this complete list to be readily available, but that’s another issue for another time) you would follow the same process as with suicides.
What’s so complicated?
This “radical” notion of including both the Main & Sub-categories in the same Article has met with some resistance. What do you think?
Regards,
- I will have to spend some time thinking about this one. However, categories are generally easier to navigate if small. I would prefer that your function of listing all "Cancer deaths" say were available by a generic function operating on the database as "List category and sub-categories entries to level {1,2,3...}". What do you think about that? Meanwhile I will think some more about it (other jobs allowing!). Jaraalbe 19:01, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- Thank you for your response. I need to say at the outset that you are dealing with a somewhat computer challenged person here, so please be kind :-). If by "List category and sub-categories entries to level {1,2,3...}" do you mean a command that would present sublists? My only concern, being the lazy researcher that I am, is that the computer do as much of the grind work for me as it can. I would like to know more about your above alternative.
- Regards,
Caffaro
Was there any particular reason why you put an {{unsourced}} tag on Caffaro di Rustico da Caschifellone? It doesn't contain anything that wouldn't qualify as common knowledge, I don't think. I've been meaning to expand it for some time and will of course list sources when I do, but everything there now is contained in other encylcopedias and so on. Was there a particular statement that troubled you--perhaps that his Latin was lousy (it was. . .)? Chick Bowen 06:38, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- I did not mean to offend you - I personally believe that most people enter factual information in good faith - and no particular statement offended me. All articles in wikipedia are supposed to have sources. What might be common knowledge to you is not common knowledge to everyone. Unless a source is given people can not check the veracity of an article for themselves/ The unsourced tag also alerts all wikipedia editors monitoring the unsourced article categories: one editor might be prompted to find a source. Jaraalbe 07:11, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- I wasn't offended, just curious--if there was something you objected to, I would have found a source or taken it out. I do think the statement "All articles in wikipedia are supposed to have sources" is a bit overly broad, though, and our policies say nothing of the sort, but rather (in a guideline) "Attribution is required for direct quotes and for material that is challenged or likely to be challenged." Most stubs like this one don't have sources. Look, I'm all for encouraging citation, but I don't think sources should be demanded willy-nilly; if there's a reason, seems to me, put the tag; if not, why bother? Nobody other than me is likely to source this article, after all, it being a rather obscure topic. Chick Bowen 08:04, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
- I would not have put the unsourced tag if there had been a relevant stub category assigned. However, I re-assert my opinion that verifiablity is crucial to the authority of a wikipedia article and to wikipedia as a whole. It is almost a truism that guide-lines tend to become mandatory with time (this is an independent observation to my main point!). Jaraalbe 08:46, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

Hello,I am writing in response to your removing the Main Category "Accidental Deaths" from the Timothy Sullivan Article. I, truly, do not want to engage in an argument about this; I am merely trying to learn something here.
The whole issue of Category use has, and is now, the subject of a rather intense debate going on in the Wikipedia Community. If you subscribe to the WikiEN-L Mailing List you probably already know that.
My question is this: where did you learn that it is inappropriate to include both the Main and Sub Categories in an Article? When I began editing WP over a year ago, this was not the case: both were included. It made it much simpler for researchers like me.
Respectfully,
Heinrich Burger

Classification of Railway Articles
- I will do as you ask and mark most such changes as minor. However, I think that classification into categories is an important part of an article. Jaraalbe 06:26, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
- And I totally agree. But all you are doing is renaming an existing category, rather than the article itself. In my mind, thats a minor edit. Canterberry 07:27, 10 October 2007 (UTC)
On this subject, I notice that you've added a new category, Rail Transport in the West Midlands. By consensus, as there are so many articles in the area, all rail-related articles have been placed within "Transport in (metropolitan borough)" categories as subcats of "Transport in West Midlands". Now, I realise that you've simply added the new category, but as all the "Transport in (metropolitan borough)" articles are subsets of "Transport in West Midlands" - if you want to keep "Rail Transport in" cats, shouldn't we add "Rail Transport in (metropolitan borough)" as subcats of "Rail Transport in West Midlands" and "Transport in (metropolitan borough)" so as to remove excessive categorisation, whilst keeping all the rail articles together and keeping the geographical articles together?
It would mean that, say, Walsall to Wolverhampton Line would just be in "Rail Transport in Wolverhampton" and "Rail Transport in Walsall" rather than the situation since your changes of "Transport in Wolverhampton", "Transport in Walsall" and "Rail Transport in West Midlands". Hope that makes sense. Fingerpuppet 10:30, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

Houses in ...
I don't necessarily disagree with what you're doing, but when adding a category to London, it would be helpful if you could maintain the list of standard London Categories and consider the effect of adding a further category to one borough, while not changing the 32 others (including CoL). (The purpose of that list is to achieve some level of standardisation, it is not necessarily complete).- I will try to remember to do this. Jaraalbe (talk) 06:59, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

The intent of Category:Military organizations was to cover groups that weren't actually within the military (excluding, in particular, actual units and formations). Categorizing those would be helpful, I suppose; but they should really go into distinct categories, to keep them separate from non-military bodies. I'd suggest the following:Kirill 19:42, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Or, alternately, the standard
- to avoid the awkward "formations formed" bit. :-) Kirill 19:57, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- OK, sounds reasonable. Most of the articles that I have categorised are military units and formations. What do you think is the best process for a transfer? Can we avoid a complete manual renaming? Jaraalbe (talk) 22:21, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- As you're the only editor to have worked on the sub-categories, you could probably get away with asking for a speedy renaming; that would eliminate the need to rename things by hand. I'm not sure if that'll work, so we'll keep the manual renaming as a backup plan; so long as additional categories are created with the new names, moving the current set by hand should still be feasible (if not particularly interesting). Kirill 22:43, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- Hi -- I was just thinking about renaming Category:Military organizations to Category:Military-related organizations to make it clearer that this is not organizations of the military. What do you two think? --Lquilter (talk) 07:24, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, that might make the distinction between organization of the military and Category:Military-related organizations more clear. Jaraalbe (talk) 07:36, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, that would work. (Or perhaps Category:Organizations associated with the military? I'm not sure what the normal naming of such categories is.) Kirill 14:09, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- Now listed for cfr. Jaraalbe (talk) 23:02, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Category:Defunct magazines of the United Kingdom
- Also Smash Hits, and Record Mirror. I see that Melody Maker is in the Category:Defunct newspapers of the United Kingdom - possibly some of the the other music weeklies should be moved there? Wwwhatsup (talk) 00:59, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Some of your recent edits in Category:Defunct magazines and sub-categories
You recently removed Fantasy Fiction (magazine) and another magazine from "Category:Science fiction magazines" on the premise that they are already covered by the more specific "Categories: Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States". While that may seem like a good idea there aren’t sub-categories for all the different types of Science fiction magazines. Since "Category:Science fiction magazines" covers all of the types of SF magazines all of them (including the ones in "Categories: Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States") are already listed there.Now of course if you are planning on creating the following subcategories, listing them under "Category:Science fiction magazines" and then putting all of the science fiction magazines in one of these subcategories that would be great.
- Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States
- Category:Current science fiction magazines of the United States
- Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United Kingdom
- Category:Current science fiction magazines of the United Kingdom
- Category:Defunct science fiction magazines from other countries
- Category:Current science fiction magazines from other countries
Pmcalduff (talk) 10:43, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- I am sorry, but I fail to understand your criticism. "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States" is a member of "Category:Defunct magazines of the United States", which in turn in a member of "Category:American magazines". "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States" is also a member of "Category:Science fiction magazines". "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States" is a member of "Category:Defunct magazines of the United States" which is a member of "Category:Defunct magazines by country", a member of "Category:Defunct magazines". Therefore "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States" covers all the categories that I deleted from Fantasy Fiction (magazine). I will consider your suggestion to make "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United Kingdom", as there are a number of such magazines. It think it best to leave those published in multiple countries in "Category:Science fiction magazines", and not to create "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines from other countries", but wait until several appear from a particular country and create a specific country category. Jaraalbe (talk) 20:33, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
- I guess my real problem was that you moved two defunct American magazines out of the "Category:Science fiction magazines" and into "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United States" but left 39 other defunct American magazines in the "Category:Science fiction magazines" which resulted in having some of them in one category and some of them in another which will cause a lot of confusion for anyone trying to find them. Pmcalduff (talk) 04:36, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Okay. Sounds good. What are your thoughts on creating categories for current magazines?
- Category:Current science fiction magazines of the United States
- Category:Current science fiction magazines of the United Kingdom
By the way, if you want we could divide up the work.Pmcalduff (talk) 08:12, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
- I went ahead and created the "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United Kingdom". When I finished that I created the following templates to go with the DefunctAmericanSFMagazines template:
- That's great. However, we must watch against the charge of overclassification. We also can not create country specific categories unless the statistical distribution of articles guides us in that direction. Jaraalbe (talk) 12:46, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- Yes I agree. After I made the "Category:Defunct science fiction magazines of the United Kingdom" I noticed that only had four magazines in it which is why when I created the template for British magazines I combined the Defunct and Current magazines into one template.
- By the way, I noticed on your profile that you're from the UK. What’s better "British magazines" or "United Kingdom magazines"? ("United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland magazines" is way to long to consider) Pmcalduff (talk) 14:05, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
- "British magazines" is probably the best format, next best being "Magazines of the United Kingdom". The defunct categories have settled on the "...of the country" format.
Royal New Zealand Navy World War II minesweepers
- Thank you for that information about item of country categories, I was not aware of that. I will consider requesting a re-name, as this probably does fall into that class. I don't know how to re-name categories, but I know how to start process for re-name requests (see Category:Categories for discussion, Category:Categories for renaming).

Biblical art.
- Actually it would be more useful to set up a Category:Paintings depicting Jesus sub-cat to match the Mary one, which could then be a sub-category of both. Most of the biblical art ones are not in the current Category:Artistic portrayals of Jesus, where they should be. A Virgin and Chld only need go in the Mary category I feel - I am adding a note to the Jesus category to say this. A Pieta should go in both. Johnbod (talk) 20:40, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- I think that Biblical art includes more forms of art than paintings. Biblical themes are also not just limited to Mary and Jesus. For example, all art depicting Old testament themes. There is, therefore, a requirement for a parent category. Christian art includes that which is not biblical, such as depictions of 2nd century and later saints; so there is a distinction between biblical art and Christian art. I agree that for completeness there should be a Category:Paintings depicting Jesus category (and possibly even a sub-cat on cruxifications). If you have a stronger argument, I would consider deletion. Thank you for the comment, sometimes it is good just to have some notice. Jaraalbe (talk) 21:25, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- I agree in theory, but there is now nothing left in the cat now except the Bosch garden, which could/should as well be in a Xtian cat, as it certainly depicts no specific scene in OT or NT, & the museum. I'm happy to leave it to see what develops. There are certainly many paintings that could go in. One day we will have a cat for Nativities/Adoration of the Magi also. A Passion of Christ cat might be better than just a Crucifixion one, as the depositions etc could go in too. I too prefer that works of art are at least initially classified by subjerct in all media, not just paintings. Really it should be Category:Works of art by subject etc. Johnbod (talk) 21:35, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
- I will work on classifying paintings and other works of art. Your comments will be most welcome. As to Passion/Cruxification, let us leave that for now. Jaraalbe (talk) 21:42, 25 March 2008 (UTC)

- Did you really mean to add Handel's Zadok the Priest to a category on Biblical art? The work is definitely biblical, and personally, I find it artistic; however I suspect you'll open the flood gates if you allow musical works in this category. —Preceding unsigned comment added by HWV258 (talk • contribs) 21:58, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

- Not particularly (Handel's Zadok the Priest being an anthem). My opinion is that musical works should have their own category page (and sub pages) if they are to be grouped on a biblical basis (but I'll leave it to wiser Wikipedians to decide). HWV 258 22:19, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Rabbi cats
- Thank you for the information, of which I was aware. Categories by century are a tighter time definition; they also fit well with other categorizations of people by century. In the case of rabbis, I do not believe that all rabbis would be given the status of Geonim, Rishonim etc., so century categories have a wider definition. Jaraalbe (talk) 07:52, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
New Project
Myself and several other editors have been compiling a list of very active editors who would likely be available to help new editors in the event they have questions or concerns. As the list grew and the table became more detailed, it was determined that the best way to complete the table was to ask each potential candidate to fill in their own information, if they so desire. This list is sorted geographically in order to provide a better estimate as to whether the listed editor is likely to be active.If you consider yourself a very active Wikipedian who is willing to help newcomers, please either complete your information in the table or add your entry. If you do not want to be on the list, either remove your name or just disregard this message and your entry will be removed within 48 hours. The table can be found at User:Useight/Highly Active, as it has yet to have been moved into the Wikipedia namespace. Thank you for your help. Useight (talk) 06:13, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Bombing of Essen in World War II
- Although, not limited to 1942 and 1943, two of the most serious raids are documentated in the article as occurring in 1942 and 1943. If any evidence appears in the article as to dates of significant raids in other years then categories for those years can also be added. Jaraalbe (talk) 06:42, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

Economic disasters
- You are of course correct in that capital markets between continents have been connected for centuries. However, some crises do not have a significant effect on the wider economy far from their point of origin. I think it wise to consider each case separately and classify/re-classify as necessary. Jaraalbe (talk) 05:46, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
Shipwrecks as disasters?
- All shipwrecks are categorized under disasters e.g. Category:Disasters_in_the_United_Kingdom|Category:Transport disasters in the United Kingdom|Category:Maritime incidents in the United Kingdom|Category:Shipwrecks of the United Kingdom|Category:Cornish shipwrecks, even down to sub-divisions of countries (e.g. Category:Disasters in England by locality|Category:Disasters in Kent|Category:Shipwrecks in the Downs or Category:Disasters in Massachusetts|Category:Shipwrecks_of_the_Massachusetts_coast and even Category:Transport disasters in Australia|Category:Maritime incidents in Australia|Category:Shipwrecks_on_the_Australian_coast. When shipwrecks occur close to a coast they can be associated with that coast. Tasmania is a distinct part of Australia with a distinct coast and so shipwrecks off it can be associated with Tasmania. In summary,I think that all Australian shipwrecks, and shipwrecks world-wide, should be reviewed. Jaraalbe (talk) 07:21, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
Maybe - but where is the precedent/first time tried that one and have there been alternatives? Surely there are shipwrecks in the global scheme of things which havent been drawn in to this particular format - it would be interesting to understand the overall process of where the disaster bit came in - citing where it is used is very useful and I appreciate the trouble you have gone to to point out usage - It is useful to have all that to hand if you want the global usage reviewed - good luck to you - I have become very jaded re category xfd and xfr issues in this old goldfishbowl as the overall process stinks at the moment - I will abstain if I see it come up anywhere - so thanks for taking the time to explain - as tassie items are on my watch i thought I'd bring it up - cheers - ( BTW - I have become very suspicious of global wikipedia wide category changes in some subject areas - due to the effect from some recent events - so that is why you can count me out on this topic - I do not believe there are phenomona that have consistently global application - the more I look at it differences across cultures and continents - I am genuinely dissappointed by the urge of some wikipedia editors desire to have global consistency in things in wikipedia that have none in reality) best of luck - cheers SatuSuro 14:38, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
Category:20th century in Christianity
Good job on these categories.Since we have begun naming these "Christianity century categories in different formats I think you and I should agree to stop creating any more until we (and others) can agree on one standard format, such as...
- Category:19th century Christian history
- Category:19th century Christianity
- Category:19th century in Christianity
Once we do that (agree to stop), I think the next step will be for us to post the issue to WP:CFD since that will be requiered to change any category names that exsist now. --Carlaude (talk) 22:21, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

- I prefer either Category:00th century Christianity or Category:00th century Christian history.

Hello
Mis-named category for Russian America
- Apologies if this is not the best title, I used information within Russian Alaska to formulate the category title; the word colony is used sereval times. As an alternative title, how about "Russian North America", is that more clear? I have no objection to the main Wikipedia discussion board process. Thanks for your note. Jaraalbe (talk) 15:33, 13 December 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply; the Russian Alaska article has its problems...including its title...I'm doing some research, I think now it may have been a "guberniya" ("Governate") rather than an ablast; ocne taht's determined I'll run it by WP:CFD....Skookum1 (talk) 15:54, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

- Hi; please see the yellow, deleted section at left; turns out the easiest way to do this, rather than a full-fledged CFD, is for you, as the recent creator of the category, to simply ask for it to be deleted as explained in the linked material; then simply create Category:Russian America.

Hi, Happy New Year...I see you're around today by your user contributions...could you please do the deletion of Category:Russian colony of Alaska and create/transpose Category:Russian America in its place; I just created Category:Governors of Russian America. As noted, it's easiest for you as the category-creator to simply do the deletion (place a "delete" template is all that's needed); I've saved a list of the current category's contents so can use it as a reference point for adding the new category to all of them, as I realize you may not have the time/energy. It's just easier this way, since we're the only two involved (at this point). I could just created Category:Russian America and do all of that but it's redudant at this point, until the one you created is deleted...other subcats are going to be created, but I didn't want to make too many until their parent cat is renamed/deleted. Thanks mucho.Skookum1 (talk) 16:22, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

- 'K, thanks. Note my creation of Category:Governors of Russian America today; I'm also going to create List of Russian ships in the Pacific Northwest and California, similar to List of Royal Navy ships in the Pacific Northwest and List of ships in British Columbia; might throw the title around a bit, including California because of Ft Ross and the visits of Russian ships to California as a show of anti-British support during the Civil War; ostsensible cut-off date is 1867; if I'd titles List of ships in British Columbia differently I could just integrate teh Russian ships there....sorry, just thinking out loud, but mostly bringing this up to indicate the variety of potential subcats of Category:Russian America....marine expeditions and vessels being only one sub-category, Category:Russian Orthodox missionaries in North America would be another.....Category:Russian American Company employees etc....Skookum1 (talk) 20:42, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Category:Old soldiers' home
- A problem with Category:Old soldiers' home as a sub-category of Category: United States Department of Veterans Affairs is that it is not international. Royal Hospital Chelsea in London, UK is an "Old soldier's home". Other countries will also have similar institutions. With the current level of population of Category:Old soldiers' home it might seem inapproproate to create Category:United States veterans retirement homes as a sub-cat to Category:Old soldiers' home. However eventually such a category is required. If we can find sufficient articles to place in such a category then we can justify its' creation. A starting place (for the US) might be Old soldiers' home. Jaraalbe (talk) 09:41, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Hi Jaraalbe,I AM sorry to mess this up. I'll refrain from too much of this. All I was trying to do was include as many articles in as many categories as seemed reasonable. Thanks, Fergananim (talk) 14:23, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
- Jaraalbe, I've noticed you are randomly removing people of Munster origins from the category Medieval Irish people. Many of them I just added because I found it filled up only with Connachta and Uí Néill. The Eóganachta and others belong to. Please fix the way your program is working or I will remove everyone from the category. DinDraithou (talk) 20:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
- DinDraithou, please see my reply to Fergananim on this issue (User talk:Ferganim#Categories and catgeory diffusion). Basically the move that I have performed is to a valid sub-category. Regards, Jaraalbe (talk) 20:52, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
- Please reply to me, thank you. As I said, if the Munster Irish keep disappearing, I will remove everyone from the category. DinDraithou (talk) 20:58, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Why are you removing Categories related to Iran?
- I thank you for your comment. I have been trying to do some sorting of some Iran-related articles. The level of categorizing appears to be sparse compared to some other countries (for example compare the number of articles within states of India, such as Tamil Nadu with articles within most provinces within Iran)). I am attempting to play a small part in improving the category consistency between countries. I believe that in all cases I have inserted a more appropriate set of categories for each article considered. Mostly this involves moving articles to sub-categories which are children of at least two parents. It is a general practise in wikipedia that articles are not also placed in parent categories. For example, havng created a category for "Category:Visitor attractions in Tabriz" which is a child of "Category:Tabriz" and "Category:Visitor attractions in Iran by city", it is no longer appropriate to have articles on attractions in Tabriz directly within "Category:Visitor attractions in Iran by city"; they should now occur within "Category:Visitor attractions in Tabriz". If the article falls within another sub-category it can be plaved within that as well, so "Visitor attractions in Tabriz" which are also buildings should also occur under "Category:Buildings and structures in Tabriz". If you think that a particular group of edits on an article is incorrect then please point it out, with your reasoning, and I will, if necessary revert. I acknowledge that I occasionally make mistakes, and I will be grateful if you do point them out to me. I have a genuine interest in many subjects in wikipedia: the history of Iran is one of those interests. Jaraalbe (talk) 21:16, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
- Hello I tried to follow this algebra. What I can say is that it is correct to have category Iran under all pages related to Iran. As it is often a poliically loaded decision, deleting them can make many people regard you as politicaly biased.--Babakexorramdin (talk) 08:56, 16 February 2010 (UTC)
- If it is correct to put all pages ralted to Iran in the Category:Iran itself, then why does category:Iran contain the banner message: "Due to the scope of this category, it should only contain subcategories and possibly a limited number of directly related pages."? (As do the main category pages for almost every country). Therefore few articles should be directly in Category:Iran. When I deleted the category: Iran from any page it was to sub-categorise - fulfilling the banner injunction. This is not a political issue, but one of wikipedia logic. Again, I say if you have a particular issue with a particular article, please bring it to my attention. Regards. Jaraalbe (talk) 08:24, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

- please let category Iran stand under the Iranian cities pages. You can also put them under the category Iranian cities--Babakexorramdin (talk) 16:36, 17 February 2010 (UTC)
- I believe that under strict adhence to Wikipedia categorizing principles, all pages for Iranian cities should come under Category:Cities, towns and villages in Iran or even sub-categories of Category:Cities, towns and villages in Iran. However, personally I have no problem with a small number of pages on major cities of Iran being also being listed in Category:Iran if fellow wikipedians so desire. The articles so left should not be of very poor quality, and definately no stubs. Another proviso is that the total number of articles in Category:Iran should not be so high as to cause "clutter" that obscures easy navigation. If I remove an article from Category:Iran in future I will give a more detailed argument on the general categorization of that article, including why it should be removed from Category:Iran.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Satelite image of Malta.jpg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on File:Satelite image of Malta.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.
For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:11, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Request to take part in a survey
I am Piotr Konieczny, a fellow Wikipedian (User:Piotrus) and a researcher of Wikipedia (http://scholar.google.com/citations?user=gdV8_AEAAAAJ). I am currently (in collaboration with WMF) embarking on a project trying to understand why the most active Wikipedia contributors (such as yourself) may reduce their activity, or retire. We have a growing understanding of why an average editor may do so (see http://strategy.wikimedia.org/wiki/Former_Contributors_Survey_Results), but we have a very limited understanding of why the top editors would limit their contributions. Yet it is the top editors like yourself who contribute most of Wikiepdia's content, thus understanding this is of vital concern to Wikipedia's project future.I am contacting you because you are among the top Wikipediana by number of edits, yet your editing activity shows a decline. I would very much appreciate if you would take a minute and answer the following four short questions. Please note this is not a mass email; I am contacting only few dozen of editors like yourself, and each response is extremely valuable. Your response will not be made public, and your privacy will be fully respected.
If you would like to help out in this project and take part in a very short survey, please send me a wikiemail, so that I can send you an email with the survey questions. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 19:47, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
