Hallo Koyaanis!
Die von dir angelegte Seite BRAVO Hits 1 wurde zum Löschen vorgeschlagen. Gemäß den Löschregeln wird über die Löschung mindestens sieben Tage diskutiert und danach entschieden.
Du bist herzlich eingeladen, dich an der Löschdiskussion zu beteiligen. Wenn du möchtest, dass der Artikel behalten wird, kannst du dort die Argumente, die für eine Löschung sprechen, entkräften, indem du dich beispielsweise zur enzyklopädischen Relevanz des Artikels äußerst. Du kannst auch während der Löschdiskussion Artikelverbesserungen vornehmen, die die Relevanz besser erkennen lassen und die Mindestqualität sichern.
Da bei Wikipedia jeder Löschanträge stellen darf, sind manche Löschanträge auch offensichtlich unbegründet; solche Anträge kannst du ignorieren.
Vielleicht fühlst du dich durch den Löschantrag vor den Kopf gestoßen, weil der Antragsteller die Arbeit, die du in den Artikel gesteckt hast, nicht würdigt. Sei tapfer und bleibe dennoch freundlich. Der andere meint es vermutlich auch gut.
Grüße, Xqbot (Diskussion) 15:51, 1. Nov. 2018 (CET) (Diese Nachricht wurde automatisch durch einen Bot erstellt. Wenn du zukünftig von diesem Bot nicht mehr über Löschanträge informiert werden möchtest, trag dich hier ein.)

Projektneuheiten:
- (Pywikibot) Eine neue Version 3.0.20181203 wurde als Tag bereitgestellt. Die Änderungen enthalten unter anderen:
- Aus Sicherheitsgründen ist das Modul requests mindestens in der Version 2.20.0 erforderlich (Task 208296, Gerrit:470841). Diese Anforderung ist nicht restriktiv, Pywikibot mit einer älteren requests-Version läuft vorerst weiter. Es wird aber empfohlen, ein Update dieses Moduls vorzunehmen.
- EventStreams kann nun mit einem Zeitstempel benutzt werden (Task 205121, Gerrit:462006); siehe auch wikitech:EventStreams.
- Es wurden neue Generatoren bereitgestellt, die über die Optionen -wantedpages, -wantedcategories, -wantedfiles, -wantedtemplates direkt nutzbar sind (Task 56557, Task 150222, Gerrit:321089)
- googleOCR über tools.wmflabs.org/ws-google-ocr wird unterstützt und kann mit wikisourcetext.py direkt genutzt werden. (Gerrit:446973)
- (Softwareumstellung) Alle bisher noch nicht umgestellten WMF-Wikis inkl. der deutschsprachigen Wikipedia wurden auf Version 1.33.0-wmf.8 umgestellt.
- Für Jedermann
- (Softwareneuheit – Nur Administratoren) Administratoren, die gesperrt wurden, können den sie sperrenden Administrator nun sperren. Dies sollte vor allem in Wikis mit nur wenigen Administratoren helfen, falls ein Administratorkonto gehackt wurde und der Administrator alle anderen Administratoren sperrt. Durch die Möglichkeit der Rücksperre entsteht ein Patt, so dass dann die Stewards in Ruhe die Lage analysieren können (Task 150826, Gerrit:476080).
- Für Programmierer
- (API) Mit dem Hinweis DEPRECATION: Action API uncaught exception error codes wird auf eine Änderung bei API-Fehlermeldungen hingewiesen. Das diesbezügliche Mail ist hier, für Pywikibot wurde Task 210657 geöffnet.

Außerdem war es schwieriger, Unterschiede im Diff zu erkennen. Dieses Problem betrifft Änderungen, die zwischen dem 8. und 17. Januar gemacht wurden, und ist jetzt behoben. (Task 213922)

Erfolgschancen breit angelegter Protestaktionen
Zu deinem Kommentar "grundsätzlich glaube ich nicht an die Erfolgschancen von breit angelegten Protestaktionen" möchte ich dir gerne folgende Artikel (in chronologischer Reihenfolge) ans Herz legen:
- Busboykott von Montgomery
- Wir haben abgetrieben!
- Gorleben-Treck 1979
- Wende und friedliche Revolution in der DDR
- Revolution in Tunesien 2010/2011
Viele Grüße, Tkarcher (Diskussion) 11:44, 14. Mär. 2019 (CET)
- @Tkarcher: Für ein derart historisches Kaliber halte ich den Protest nun wirklich nicht. ;-) --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 14:42, 14. Mär. 2019 (CET)
- Ich auch nicht. Dann nimm meinetwegen die erfolgreichen Proteste gegen SOPA und PIPA von 2012 (ebenfalls mit Wikipedia-Blackout!) oder die in ihrer Wirkung noch unabsehbaren Fridays for Future. Worauf ich hinaus will: Ob ein Protest erfolgreich oder vielleicht sogar historisch bedeutsam wird, lässt sich immer erst hinterher sagen. Aber keinesfalls von vornherein ausschließen. --Tkarcher (Diskussion) 16:36, 14. Mär. 2019 (CET)
- Wenn es den Sorgen und Nöten der betroffenen Wikipedia-Klientel in irgendeiner entgegenkommt, habe ich ja gar nichts dagegen. Nur gibt es auch die andere Klientel, die aufgrund der persönlichen Wiki-Interessenlage wahrscheinlich nie spürbare Auswirkungen in der Artikelarbeit erleben wird und daher weniger Interesse an dem Urteil hat. Jetzt kann man natürlich um allgemeine Solidarität bitten - aber nicht der gesamten Community ein bindendes Ausschlussergebnis aufzwingen. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 16:56, 14. Mär. 2019 (CET)

Hallo Koyaanis, ich wollte dich da in nix hineinziehen.

Wäre es nicht sinnvoll, die Kategorie in die Kategorie:Fernsehserie (Deutschland) einzusortieren? die Kategorie:Weihnachtsserie (ZDF) ist da schon seit 2014 einsortiert. --Solomon Dandy (Diskussion) 21:59, 28. Mär. 2019 (CET)
- Ich wollte erst einmal prüfen, ob tatsächlich jede ZDF-Produktion auch als deutsche Produktion durchgeht. Aber da das wohl der Fall ist, stimme ich zu. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 05:31, 29. Mär. 2019 (CET)
2 Fragen zur Kategorie:Schauspieler
Hallo Koyaanis,
ich hab in der letzten Woche mal wieder ein paar Artikel weggeräumt, die in die Kategorie:Schauspieler geraten waren, und nicht in eine der Unterkategorien, wo sie hingehören. Momentan verbleibt da nur noch der Artikel Schauspieler selbst. Bei dem war ich mir nicht mehr sicher: Der darf als einziger verbleiben, richtig?
Bei der Gelegenheit ist mir aufgefallen, dass es in der Kategorie:Pornodarsteller eine Unterkategorie namens Vivid Girl existiert – was mir nicht nur völlig überflüssig vorkommt (weil viel zu speziell), sondern sogar wie eine Marketing/Werbungsmaßnahme wirkt, insbesondere wenn man sich den Kat-Text zu Gemüte führt, z.B.: »Vivid Girl ist ein Registered Trade Mark der Vivid Entertainment LLC. (Register-Nr. u. a. 76522303)«. Wenn das eine legitime Unterkategorie ist, müsste man ja konsequenter Weise hunderte Firmenkategorien von Porno-Unternehmen anlegen; das kann doch kaum enzyklopädisch sinnvoll sein. Wo sollte eine Löschung (samt Rückführung der Personen in die allgemeine Pornodarsteller-Kat) diskutiert werden, in der RFF, oder woanders? Herzliche Grüße von --Sprachraum (Diskussion) 18:42, 31. Mär. 2019 (CEST)
- Moin, @Sprachraum:. Die Kategorie:Schauspieler ist in der jetzigen Form korrekt.
- Die Kategorie:Vivid Girl existiert bereits seit 2011 und wurde bislang nicht beanstandet, was aber durchaus daran liegen kann, dass sich nur wenige Filmliebhaber in dieser Schmuddelecke herumtreiben... :) Ich würde einem Löschantrag zustimmen, da es nach RFF-Richtlinien unüblich ist, Darsteller in Firmenkategorien zu stecken. Aber stellen wir die Frage zuerst in der Redaktion; da sind bestimmt einige interessante Statements zu erwarten. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 20:00, 31. Mär. 2019 (CEST)
- Ok, danke Dir, dann stelle ich die Frage mal dort. --Sprachraum (Diskussion) 20:12, 31. Mär. 2019 (CEST)

neue Bestätigung am 25.4.2019
Hallo! Du hast gestern eine neue Bestätigung von Ghilt bei Persönliche Bekanntschaften erhalten. Hier kannst du selber bestätigen. Du bekommst diese Nachricht, weil du in dieser Liste stehst. Gruß --SpBot 05:50, 26. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
Liste der Billboard-Chartsongs (1940)
Hllo, durch Zufall stieß ich eben auf Liste der Billboard-Chartsongs (1940), danke! Kannst du bitte künftige Listen (mit Jazzbezug) in Portal:Jazz/Neue Artikel eintragen? Gruß--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 15:57, 27. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Moin, @Freimut Bahlo: Mache ich doch gerne. :-) Da dies die Premierenliste ist: Meinst du, dass man das in dieser Form fortführen kann, und hättest du Verbesserungsvorschläge (egal, welcher Art) ? --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 16:14, 27. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Zwei Vorschläge hätte ich, aber eher technisch-optischer Art: Die Abkürzung BP (ich nehme mal an, es bedeutet Billboard-Platzierung) sollte im Intro erklärt werden; zum anderen wäre es schöner, wenn die Künstler-Namen nicht mit dem Nachnamen beginnen würden (Lösung: siehe in Liste von Jazzmusikern in Deutschland). mit kollegialem Gruß--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 10:00, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Ansonsten ist inhaltlich nichts einzuwenden. Viel Erfolg (bei evtl. gewünschten Besetzungs-Einzelheiten kann ich immer gern mit meinem Tom Lord Stipendium aushelfen! --Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 10:02, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- ...Was ich eben an drei ausgewählten Beispielen mal ausprobiert habe.--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 10:45, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Finde ich cool ! Da ein schweinemäßig großer Datensatz abzuarbeiten ist, bin ich für jede Zusatzinformation dankbar.
- Auf der Namensform denke ich noch einmal herum. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 11:55, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)

Wie ich eben sah, bist du schon eifrig an der Billboard-Singles 1941. Dein Einverständnis vorausgesetzt, würde ich daran gern vor der Verschiebung in den ANR weiterarbeiten (das vermeidet Kollisionen und zu viele edits). Wie du evtl gesehen hast, ist bei der 1940-Liste zu fast allen Songs was zu bemerken. Evtl. ist ja eine KALP drin... gruß--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 18:54, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Klar, fühl dich frei. :) --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 19:04, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Gern. Ich sag dir dann Bescheid, wenn ich alles eingefügt habe. Gruß--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 19:20, 28. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Hallo, bin weitgehend fertig, der Rest ist Feinschliff. Überdenken würd ich die Spalte Sprache, denn sie dient eigentlich nur der Unterscheidung zwischen Gesangs- und Instrumental-Nummern; letztere (es sind eher wenige) kann man auch in den Bermerkungen kundtun, die dann mehr Platz erhielten. Du kannst jetzt in den ANR verschieben (Erwähnung meinerseits in den Quellenanm. oder der Disk wär nett). Gruß--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 12:39, 29. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Du hast Recht mit der Sprachenzeile - da sowieso geschätzte 99 % sämtlicher Billboard-Stücke Englisch oder Instrumental sind, nehme ich sie heraus. Bei 1941 muss ich noch etwa 20 Songs nachtragen, aber die Verschiebung in den ANR erledige ich vorher. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 12:53, 29. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Und ich dachte schon, Musiker mit den Anfangsbuchstaben N-Z wären chancenlos...--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 13:47, 29. Apr. 2019 (CEST)

Bin soweit mit den Ergänzungen fertig (irgedwas fällt einem immer ein). Angesichts der Arbeit: Was hältst du von einem Wikipedia:Review? --Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 18:20, 29. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Die Seite kannte ich noch gar nicht... :-)
- Es wäre natürlich interessant, auf diese Weise Feedback zu erhalten. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 18:30, 29. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
- Okay, ich stelle die 41er-Liste dort vor; vielleicht werden auch so die letzten Lücken geschlossen.--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 07:56, 30. Apr. 2019 (CEST)
Wenn ich nichts Gegenteiliges von dir höre, würde ich gern morgen früh auf Liste der Singles in den Billboard-Charts (1940) bzw. Liste der Singles in den Billboard-Charts (1941) verschieben. Viel Erfolg bei den Formationierungsproblemen wünscht--Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 18:02, 2. Mai 2019 (CEST)
- Gut, dass es noch nicht verschoben hast; da müssen wir uns eventuell noch etwas anderes einfallen lassen. --Koyaanis (Diskussion) 18:36, 3. Mai 2019 (CEST)
- Sehe ich auch so. Inzwischen habe ich die Zeit genuztzt und ein etwas ausführlicheres Vorwort für die Liste des Jahrs 1943 entworfen. Das Intro für das Jahr 1944 wird dann wieder nciht so lang ausfallen, fürchte ich. Spannend ist die Aerbeit trotzdem, an dieser Stelle mal ein Dankeschön für die kollegiale und nutzbringende Zusammenarbeit. Ich bewundere deine Geduld bei den Recherchen und der Lösung formaler Probleme! --Freimut Bahlo (Diskussion) 18:55, 3. Mai 2019 (CEST)
