A new barnstar for you!
Anti-Wikibullying Barnstar | |
I just wanted to say that I appreciated your original comment a lot. Actually, I liked it so much that I mirrored some of what you said here. Thanks for being a voice of clarity in that thread. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 13:02, 20 August 2019 (UTC) |
- I appreciate it, MJL. The discussion has started to veer into outright gaslighting at points. People are casting wild accusations at anyone who either take issue with Eric’s behavior or would like a final judgement on the situation from ArbCom and it is really baffling to me. I saw someone recommend you get indefinitely blocked for starting this case and that’s what made me post my second comment. I doubt I’m going to say anything else there but I sincerely hope ArbCom takes this case. Toa Nidhiki05 13:22, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- [Thank you for the ping] I can take solace in the fact that I didn't make my filing for the benefit of the community. I simply reviewed the types of statements Arbcom has historically found the most persuasive, and I based mine of those.
However, it's slightly... disheartening to learn that what you said may have been considered a personal attack, but this or this are not considered equally problematic. I mean... I was literally being told I add no value to the project.. That stuff hurts. –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 13:34, 20 August 2019 (UTC)- Hi Toa, I hope you don't mind, but I revised my statement to reproduce parts of your original statement because I think what you said is much more valuable that what I had to say. If you do mind, please accept my apologies and let me know, and I'll remove it. Either way, thanks for writing it. – Levivich 18:58, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- No problem at all, and I appreciate that someone found it valuable. :) Toa Nidhiki05 19:01, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Open Here peer review
Heya! You had previously expressed interest in weighing in at the FAC for Open Here before it was archived. I wanted to let you know I've just submitted it for a peer review, with the ultimate hopes of improving the article for a second FA nomination. If you wanted to weigh in at the PR, please feel free to do so! If not, no worries, I'm sure someone else will at some point, and then I may ping you again later when I submit it for FA a second time. Thanks! — Hunter Kahn 11:37, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
- Sounds good! I’ve try to give some input by the end of the day. Toa Nidhiki05 13:58, 27 August 2019 (UTC)
Please help me find a way and place to have a positive discussion regarding Reagan talk page
I do not wish to cast aspersions, run people down, or do anything of the sort.
However, I think we do have a right to know why the big upsurge of participation (which was several times baseline). I can accept that you did not approve of the following approach:
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:Ronald_Reagan&diff=909659205&oldid=909659025
Please help find a positive way and place to have such a discussion. Thank you. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 22:45, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- Numerous controversial changes have been proposed. Why wouldn't activity increase? Toa Nidhiki05 22:47, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, some of them quite controversial, and plus with a big news item to boot. But I've seen other controversies/news items which did not generate this kind of interest. Maybe it's simply the luck of the draw. All the same, I think it's a good idea to have a polite, even-tempered discussion which basically just gives people a chance to volunteer information, for example, if they've talked it up on another board, have invited a handful of people, etc. None of which I would personally consider all that big a deal, but I do think it's better that our small working group be open with such information, rather than closed. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 18:23, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
- I really don’t like your repeated insinuations that there is something nefarious at play. If you have evidence of brigading, bring it but, but we’re not really going to run an inquisition to see where editors came from. High-profile pages with major changes and disputes will often get a lot of traffic in times like this. Toa Nidhiki05 18:29, 22 August 2019 (UTC)
- I'm using language like "polite" and "even-tempered." And I'm saying, "better that our small working group be open with such information." FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 17:58, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
- Why would you assume people aren’t being open? Toa Nidhiki05 18:03, 23 August 2019 (UTC)
- Okay, well, my post has been twice deleted, seemingly for simply asking the question. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 17:18, 27 August 2019 (UTC)

WikiCup 2019 September newsletter
The fourth round of the competition has finished in a flurry of last minute activity, with 454 points being required to qualify for the final round. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants with over 400 points being eliminated, and all but two of the finalists having achieved an FA during the round. Casliber, our 2016 winner, was the highest point-scorer, followed by Enwebb and Lee Vilenski, who are both new to the competition. In fourth place was SounderBruce, a finalist last year. But all those points are swept away as we start afresh for the final round.
Round 4 saw the achievement of 11 featured articles. In addition, Adam Cuerden scored with 18 FPs, Lee Vilenski led the GA score with 8 GAs while Kosack performed 15 GA reviews. There were around 40 DYKs, 40 GARs and 31 GAs overall during round 4. Even though contestants performed more GARs than they achieved GAs, there was still some frustration at the length of time taken to get articles reviewed.
As we start round 5, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (some people have fallen foul of this rule and the points have been removed).
If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to help keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

FAC source review request
Hello. I hope you are doing well. Thank you again for your help with the "Jill Valentine" FAC. I was wondering if you could do a source review for my current FAC too? Feel free to disregard this message if you do not have the time or interest. Have a great rest of your weekend! Aoba47 (talk) 00:53, 1 September 2019 (UTC)
- Aoba47 I still plan on doing this, just a busy weekend. Will do when I can this week. :) Toa Nidhiki05 01:34, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
- No worries. Take as much time as you need. Another editor has recently looked over the sources, but I would greatly appreciate if you would look over it as well. It is always nice to get as many different perspectives as possible to avoid anything slipping through the cracks. I can completely understand about a busy weekend. I live in Florida right now so I am dealing with all of the hurricane business lol. Good luck with everything keeping you busy! Aoba47 (talk) 01:44, 3 September 2019 (UTC)
Stop reverting
Can you stop reverting my edits to the article List of states and territories of the Untied States? It seems that no matter what I do on that article, you revert it. I'd like to add back the changes I made, but first I'd like to be sure you're not going to revert it again. LumaP15 (talk) 15:21, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
- I have explained why I have reverted your edits in edit summaries. I would highly advise you go to the talk page (as you have done) instead of edit warring on a featured list. Toa Nidhiki05 15:26, 9 September 2019 (UTC)

Lying
I started the talk page discussion, I said the MCU films were not part of the SMU, and you are the one that has been breaking 3RR not me. You claiming otherwise is uncivil and not going to get you anywhere. Instead of telling me to go to the talk page, please stop edit warring and do the same. Instead of saying that I think the MCU films are part of the SMU, please acknowledge that I said the opposite and stop using it as an excuse to attack me. I'm not going to be bullied like that. - adamstom97 (talk) 13:35, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- You have continued to insist, without evidence, that there is a connection between the two - first that they were “adjunct” (based off of a quote Pascal herself disowned) and now that Homecoming and Far From Home are in the SUMC. This goes against what Sony execs and Marvel execs have said, as well as dozens of sources. Toa Nidhiki05 13:39, 17 September 2019 (UTC)
- I have never said that the MCU films are in the SMU, stop trying to put words in my mouth. - adamstom97 (talk) 13:43, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

American football
Hello:
The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article American Football has been completed.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
I would say apart from some older statistics which could be updated the article is in excellent shape.

2019 US Banknote Contest
US Banknote Contest | ||
---|---|---|
November-December 2019 | ||
There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons. In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate. If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here |

Toa Nidhikio5, From seeing the "List of Political Party" all of the party were given Ideology and Founders by PoliticalWiz. The Parties pages are linked to the side if you needed to double check, but you remove mostly all of his work with out doing your own research.

FA review?
Hey. I noticed your current FAC nomination, and was wondering if you'd be interested in trading reviews? I'd love to get as much feedback as possible this time around for my nomination, and would be more than prepared to review yours in return. I understand if you don't have the time though. Kind regards, Homeostasis07 (talk · contribs) 01:10, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, I'd definitely be interested in that Homeostasis07! You seem to be in a similar situation to me - I've nominated Almost There (album) for featured article three times now so I get the frustration. I definitely have the time to look at it and will get started tonight. I respect your tenacity in trying to get this to feature article, hopefully third time's the charm for both of us. Toa Nidhiki05 01:18, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks. I currently have 2 FAs, both of them album articles, so hopefully I'll be able to provide something substantial during my review. I've already started reading Almost There, and will hopefully have my initial review posted within 24 hours—although I'm not seeing much to complain about. You did a pretty damn fine job with the article thus far. ;) Homeostasis07 (talk · contribs) 01:27, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks! Yeah, it's mainly been a lack of discussion that's slowed things down in my opinion. It happens, but thankfully it has more attention this time. Toa Nidhiki05 02:11, 29 August 2019 (UTC)
- Hey again. Couldn't help notice Jo-Jo Eumerus' criticism of the sound files currently used in the article. I remember receiving more or less the same criticism with one of my own FAs – The Pale Emperor – when I was advised to study (well, copy) the description and FURs of the samples found at OK Computer. I'd advise you to do the same. ;) Homeostasis07 (talk · contribs) 00:22, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the advice and I'll definitely keep that in mind in the future. Unfortunately I don't think there's going to be a strong enough case to convince him here, and Nikkimaria raised similar issues. I'd prefer to have a sample, but it's not a necessity.

You probably had no idea of the sort of quagmire you were stepping into by reviewing Jill's article, but your uninvolved, unbiased critique was exactly what was needed: it genuinely helped clear the air surrounding the article of a lot of its toxicity. I can't explain in words in a barnstar of how appreciative I genuinely am. Just... thanks for all your help. And congratulations on your own nomination being promoted as well. ;) Homeostasis07 (talk/contributions) 02:19, 19 November 2019 (UTC) |
Open Here?
Do you plan to continue the Open Here PR, or should I seek it from someone else? No offense either way, just let me know so I can proceed accordingly. Thanks! — Hunter Kahn 02:11, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
I reverted your removal of the talk page comment at Star Wars: The Last Jedi and responded to it before noticing your comment on the new account's page. If the account is sock, please feel free to remove/strike it and my response. Thanks. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 21:26, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- No problem. I’ve opened an investigation so we’ll find out soon. Toa Nidhiki05 21:37, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. I had also just asked NinjaPirateRobot to run a check, and so I let them know about the SPI. I wouldn't have restored the edit if I had seen it was for a sock evasion, which seems pretty clear based on the behavioral evidence. Probably best to ignore them for now until they are CU blocked. – wallyfromdilbert (talk) 21:49, 20 November 2019 (UTC)
Not a sockpuppet
I have responded on the talk page of Christian right, but to answer your question, I am not a sockpuppet, but felt the material warrants inclusion. SuperCarnivore591 (talk) 14:17, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
- @SuperCarnivore591: Are you aware that is exactly something a sockpuppet would say?
Clearly, you are a sockpuppet! [FBDB] (talk page stalker) –MJL ‐Talk‐☖ 14:48, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
No personal attacks please
Regarding this: It's a personal attack either way. Don't do that, or you might end up blocked yourself. Huon (talk) 22:48, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
- Sometimes, when responding to sockpuppet trolls, ridicule is an adequate solution. Toa Nidhiki05 22:52, 21 November 2019 (UTC)
WP:HOUNDING
Tao, you are following me around to noticeboards that have nothing to do with your WP interests, but clearly are a form of WP:HOUNDING as I have mentioned before. Please focus on content and not on what I am up to in other parts of the Pedia lest you end up at AN again. Mentioning my topic ban to discredit me is strictly prohibited, and I have previously informed you of this. There is absolutely no reason not to leave our issues at the Attkisson talk page, or a related noticeboard, unless you are literally trolling. Please convince me you are not here for that. petrarchan47คุก 20:34, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
- I’m not following you anywhere. I follow the COI noticeboard and saw the discussion. It is not prohibited to mention your topic ban, especially when it’s pertinent to the discussion at hand. I would suggest you stop casting aspersions on other editors, especially given your history here. Toa Nidhiki05 20:41, 25 November 2019 (UTC)

Sockpuppet
I couldn't make this shit up: is one of the dudes who fought to get me banned last month literally an anti-Muslim sockpuppet account?[2] I don't have time to investigate further, but the circumstantial evidence alone strongly points to "yep". Snooganssnoogans (talk) 00:27, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- This is shocking to me, nobody could have possibly guessed this! Toa Nidhiki05 18:25, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
Edit question
Curious as to why you reverted my edit on Return of the Jedi? I did a BRD revert on a change someone wanted to put in, explained it on the talk page and in the edit, but you restored the original edit with a talk purely of "Stop", (which could come across as a bit rude, but that's by the by). Curious as to your thinking. Canterbury Tail talk 13:40, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- The consensus has been for years that he is dead. There is no consensus for a version that says he isn’t. Toa Nidhiki05 13:41, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
- Actually the mention of the emperor's death has changed constantly over the years, with long periods of both sides of it. Though I now notice it's never been formally discussed and an actual consensus arrived at in the talk pages, so that's where it should go then. Thanks for the explanation. 13:46, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

Thanks again for all of your help this year. It was very much appreciated. Wishing you and all your loved ones a happy and healthy holiday season.

The Top 3 most-popular articles about People in WikiProject Christianity were:
- Pope Benedict XVI – retired prelate of the Catholic Church who served as head of the Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State from 2005 until his resignation.
- Pope Francis – the head of the Catholic Church and sovereign of the Vatican City State. Francis is the first Jesuit pope, the first from the Americas, the first from the Southern Hemisphere, and the first pope from outside Europe since the Syrian Gregory III, who reigned in the 8th century.
- Dolly Parton – an American singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, record producer, actress, author, businesswoman, and humanitarian, known primarily for her work in country music. Quotations related to Dolly Parton at Wikiquote: "I just depend on a lot of prayer and meditation. I believe that without God I am nobody, but that with God, I can do anything."
- ...that the All Saints Church, Henley Brook, the oldest church in Western Australia, held its first service almost eight years before it was consecrated?
- ...that the Golden Madonna of Essen is the oldest preserved sculpture of the Virgin Mary?
- ...that the parish church of James Parkinson, after whom Parkinson's disease is named, was St Leonard's, Shoreditch, a church just outside the City of London and most famous for being one of the churches mentioned in the nursery rhyme "Oranges and Lemons"?

A Song for Simeon, is a 37-line poem written in 1928 by American-English poet T. S. Eliot (1888–1965). It is one of five poems that Eliot contributed to the Ariel poems series of 38 pamphlets by several authors published by Faber and Gwyer. "A Song for Simeon" was the sixteenth in the series and included an illustration by avant garde artist Edward McKnight Kauffer. The poem's narrative echoes the text of the Nunc dimittis, a liturgical prayer for Compline from the Gospel passage. Eliot introduces literary allusions to earlier writers Lancelot Andrewes, Dante Alighieri and St. John of the Cross. Critics have debated whether Eliot's depiction of Simeon is a negative portrayal of a Jewish figure and evidence of anti-Semitism on Eliot's part.

Star Wars sequel trilogy edits
@Toa Nidhiki05: Can you please keep an eye on user Rosvel92 as he continues to be be disruptive by ignoring previous edit comments and reverts by re-introducing prose on what he thinks should be included in the article such as the conspiracy theories surrounding the J.J. Abrams' cut and Colin Trevorow's script for IX; any deletion results in him changing the wording and then moving it to different sections in the article. He doesn't seem to be a user that responds to pings or notices on his talk page. -- Wikibenboy94 (talk) 09:13, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
