== Canada Soccer not an authority on players' club team ==

My objection with listing Liam Millar as "Liverpool U23s" is that Canada Soccer is the ''only'' source that has him on that team, and Canada soccer recently had [https://northerntribune.ca/lucas-cavallini-transfer-leak/ Lucas Cavallini as a member of Atlas when that appeared to be completely false]. Listing him as simply "Liverpool" is automatically correct given his loan is over at Killie and he is in the Liverpool organization at the moment. Unless another source shows "Liverpool U23s" we should stick with just Liverpool. [[User:TrailBlzr|TrailBlzr]] ([[User talk:TrailBlzr|talk]]) 21:03, 1 June 2019 (UTC)
:Simply provide a source then. We have a high-quality source saying he's U23. We have no source otherwise that I've seen. If there's no source, you are speculating. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 01:19, 2 June 2019 (UTC)

:Well that's interesting [[User:Winged Blades of Godric]] - and all rather puzzling given the author's comments.

== October 2019 ==
[[File:Information.svg|25px|alt=Information icon]] Hello, I'm [[User:Dmehus|Dmehus]]. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, [[:Canada Computers]], but you didn't provide a [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable source]]. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|include a citation]] and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the [[Wikipedia:Tutorial/Citing_sources#VisualEditor|tutorial on citing sources]], or if you think I made a mistake, you can '''reply here''', possibly with a ping to me. ''I appreciate your [[WP:AGF|good faith]] edits of [[Canada Computers]] in which you attempted to add two citations. In both cases, the articles cited were either irrelevant or tangentially relevant. In the former, the blog post/article referred to "The Hut Dog" but made no mention of the article's subject. In the latter, it made reference to a fire in a building rented by post-secondary students which one of this [[WP:Notability|non-notable]] computer retailer's store locations had a fire. Such details are trivial and hardly worthy of a mention in an encyclopedia.'' <!-- Template:uw-unsourced1 --> [[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 17:51, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

::Moving this to your talk page to consolidate things and have less back-and-forth. Thanks. I'm willing to let the fire article stand, but "The Hut Dog" one is completely irrelevant and cannot remain. I didn't read the article, but didn't need to as I work more efficiently and use Ctrl+F to search for the subject article's name and/or its address, other details, etc. --[[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 18:04, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

:::::Please keep the discussion together, per my request above. When editing, it is often not necessary to read through entire articles, especially those that make only passing or tangential mentions to a subject. One has to work efficiently. Nevertheless, obviously, I was working too efficiently and Google Chrome didn't find the [[Canada Computers]] reference. As I stated, you can leave both references and I appreciate your [[WP:AGF|good faith]] refinement by adding the quotation in your reply above. --[[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 18:18, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
::::::You explicitly asked me to reply on your talk page. And that is often how I edit anyhow. If you are going to revert edits from experienced editors, while they are in the midst of working on an article, you must assume good faith, and they have added the information for a reason. If you want to work efficiently, come back in a day or two, and see where this landed - there is [[WP:NORUSH]]. Or just ask me why I added something that appears to be unrelated, instead of starting to edit aggressively.

:::::::In my initial notification, yes, that's correct, but I used Twinkle to place the notification, which is limited to the degree to which it lets you modify templates.

For clarity, I [[WP:AGF|always assume good faith]], but I reject your characterization of my edits as "aggressive". They are [[WP:BOLD|bold edits]], to which I'd add I did not undo your reversion of my edit consistent with [[WP:BRD]] and have taken this to your Talk page (where it should be). You're attempting to improve the article, which is good, so I'm hoping we can put this thread to bed now. If you'd like to help rescue other noteworthy articles, one that I stumbled upon is [[Independent Soldiers]]. I've added a number of details that establish this street gang's notability, added citations, added an infobox, and re-characterized the "club" to what it is, a street gang. I was surprised it AfD'ed actually, as it's definitely notable. So, I ''do'' try and rescue articles where I see potential for improvement and notability.[[User:Dmehus|Doug Mehus]] ([[User talk:Dmehus|talk]]) 19:01, 27 October 2019 (UTC)
::::::::* Twinkle doesn't sound very efficient to me! Your edits come across as aggressive - you may not see or intend it that way, but others do. I've been concerned for some time, with the various Canadian AFDs you've done of late - this is the first time, I've ever had anyone trying to edit attempts to improve an article in real-time - which I can say isn't very efficient! I hadn't seen that AFD ... improvement probably needed - but it looks under control - I've got a Rugby game to watch ..., and I'm not touching the article for violent criminal organization from my user id with a barge pole!

::::::::::{{ping|Nfitz}} Oh, you're a rugby fan? Cool. Why do you say you wouldn't touch a violent criminal organization's article with a barge pole? I'm just thinking, for prolific edits, the edits would be obscured in one's Contributions log by thousands, or even tens of thousands, of edits. One has to hand it to journalist like the Sun's Kim Bolan et al. that cover these organizations as one googling the organization and his or her name would produce lots of results.

== Out of curiosity ==

Sorry to message you on your talk page, but the ANI thread was closed before I noticed it. (I regularly Ctrl+F the page for "Japan" to see if my help is needed, but I've been quite distracted of late -- I actually did notice the thread a few days ago and stayed away for my own reasons; I didn't notice アリ until just now, though.)

You recently referred, on ANI, to an edit saying that the Japanese girl's name "Ari" meant "ant" as being correct and not nonsense. This seems ... questionable. Japanese is infamous for its large number of homonyms, and while ''Kojien'' only lists the words for ant and "to be"(-ish), it has never occurred to me that the girl's name "Ari" could come from the word for "ant". It's never written with the character 蟻 -- https://tangorin.com/names?search=%E3%81%82%E3%82%8A lists 44 different ways of writing it as a "female given name", and 蟻 is only given (questionably) in one that it lists as a "family name / given name".

[[User:Hijiri88|Hijiri 88]] (<small>[[User talk:Hijiri88|聖]][[Special:Contributions/Hijiri88|やや]]</small>) 15:26, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
:Later on in the discussion, I noted that it was the same word, but didn't appear to be that meaning (a hononym, though I didn't use that), referencing a discussion about that. As such, it may have been nonsense, but not complete nonsense - as the editor wasn't making it up, but had likely read something erroneous. Thanks for the background - the etymology often fascinates me - but I'm far out of my league when it comes to some languages? [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 15:35, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
::Well, FWIW, I've had a lot of bad experiences with editors posting patent nonsense on Japan-related articles, then getting into long IDHT runs on the talk pages, and then when I asked the community to deal with it at ANI they just said "I don't see how that's patent nonsense" apparently because they themselves didn't understand the content; so I may be biased here, but I agree with the editor you were arguing with that that edit ''was'' patent nonsense, and I think it was somewhat unhelpful to argue with him at ANI that it wasn't. (Going to his talk page and asking for clarification probably would have been better.)
::And yes, I do see what is happening to him at ANI ''now'' as somewhat problematic -- a bunch of editors who either don't like him for their own reasons or who don't understand the nature of his disputes and are just assuming that there must be a problem calling for him to be TBANned or even SBANned.
::[[User:Hijiri88|Hijiri 88]] (<small>[[User talk:Hijiri88|聖]][[Special:Contributions/Hijiri88|やや]]</small>) 03:01, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
:::Well at least there's no talk page rants from that user, [[User:Hijiri88]] The edit, poor as it was, seemed to be in good faith, and I did find web pages discussing whether there was a link to "ant" so not completely out of the blue - and certainly not even the complete nonsense that was claimed by the instigator of that ANI thread. That edit added two facts that seem correct, and the not unique misconception about "ant". The editor making false claims and exaggeration about vandalism, trolling, and complete nonsense don't help. And that was the worst edit I could find ... most were pretty innocuous, though badly formatted. I asked more than once for diffs of vandalism and trolling - none were provided - and then later, they attack me with what appears to be a racial slur (or is it some strange sexual thing - I remain somewhat baffled)? Simply because I called them out about making false claims about trolling and vandalism? Perhaps you should read more of the discussion. That being said, some of the further edits by 서덕민 ‎since that discussion are becoming more concerning. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 05:40, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
::::Can you link me to one or two of those websites? It sounds like a joke/hoax -- you can be suckered in and not be in violation of Wikipedia policy as long as you don't add it to the article space, but an editor who either (a) doesn't believe it and adds it to our article maliciously or (b) adds it to our article because they sincerely believe it, is a problem for the project either way. Making a judgement call and saying it is (a) and not (b) (what you call "false claims about trolling and vandalism") may not be the move I would have personally made, but I don't think it's fair to go after Sk8erPrince for doing so as you have been doing either. I don't know what "Korean fetish" meant, but given what S8P has been putting up with for the last week or so his being frustrated and lashing out ''in general'' is very understandable -- and indeed it is appalling that nothing has so far been done to address this harassment -- and given that you had already effectively shut down an apparently good-faith ANI report and involved yourself in a discussion over whether S8P should be ''removed from the project'', his lashing out at you specifically is understandable if not necessarily justified. I think if you find interacting with him to be unpleasant, there's nothing stopping you from walking away, and there hasn't been for the last several days. Your !voting in the AFD was entirely uncalled for, IMO. [[User:Hijiri88|Hijiri 88]] (<small>[[User talk:Hijiri88|聖]][[Special:Contributions/Hijiri88|やや]]</small>) 07:39, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
:::::??? The sites said ant wasn't the meaning of [[Ari (name)]], but confirmed that Ari was a name in Japanese - are you saying it's not a name in Japanese? I don't see any evidence of malicious behaviour. The problem is that Sk8erPrince doesn't listen - and kept going on about trolling without providing a diff, refusing to see that some of the edits were correct (like noting that Ari was a name in both Korean and Japanese). Looks like they were already criticized by others before they even started at ANI - whatever trouble they seem to have had was brought on themselves, between the initial ANI case, and overzealous AFD (given their previous two topic bans about being overzealous at AFD). I only became involved when just after their ANI complaint was closed, they [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=924610376&oldid=924610353 asked] for examples of problems with their recent on-Site behaviour, claiming the issues were all in the past - to which I [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents&diff=924623638&oldid=924622855 answered] simply answered honestly. There's little justification for being uncivil simply because one is frustrated - but if one is uncivil - why not delete or apologize for the "Korean fetish' comment? There's been no attempt at that. Why? Why do you defend an editor who won't even apologize for being grossly uncivil - violating a basic pillar of the project? I asked them several times to provide diffs of vandalism, trolling, or complete nonsense - and the best they could come up was that Ari edit - which at the worst was only partial nonsense, given that he also correctly identified that it's a name in two other languages. Surely making false accusations and biting newcomers is a far worse issue than poor grammar and etymology, which could quickly be fixed. Which isn't to say that [[User:서덕민]] isn't going to have to be dealt with - though I'm just noticing that overnight they created [[Hanna (Korean name)]] - which does seem to be an improvement over some earlier edits, and does address some of the comments made about earlier edits (though I'm not sure about the messaging of others, that there should be standalone pages like this - but that's not my area of expertise). [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 14:26, 6 November 2019 (UTC)

===FWIW===
I apologize if our recent interaction on ANI got a little heated. I've been under a lot of stress lately for ... reasons. I think you and I disagree as to whether it is acceptable to call a certain type of edit "complete nonsense", but now that the editor who actually did that has been indeffed for probably unrelated reasons, I see no reason why we can't move forward, agree to disagree on minor trifles like that, and behave in a collegial manner toward each other. In that spirit, I would like express regret over that recent tiff on the noticeboards. Kind regards, and happy editing!

:No problem. After the "fetish" comment, I did some digging, and came across off-site evidence of the same kind of stuff that they'd previously been topic-banned for ... and far worse. This changed my my view from being relatively passive in the second ANI discussion. I suspect others had seen similar. But discussion has to be related to on-site actions. Glad to see Arbcom taking this out of our hands. Wow ... [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 03:09, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

== Quick question about GNG ==

Hey, I'm still getting my head wrapped around the concept of [[:WP:GNG]]. For example, would [[User:Nehme1499/sandbox/Ali Al Haj (footballer)|Ali Al Haj]] and [[User:Nehme1499/sandbox/Peter Khalife|Peter Khalife]] pass, in your opinion? [[User:Nehme1499|<b style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:80%;color:#000080">Nehme</b><sub><small><b style="font-family:Verdana;color:#27B382">1499</b></small></sub>]] ([[User talk:Nehme1499|<b style="font-size:80%;color:#a9a9a9">talk</b>]]) 16:41, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
:Good question, and it's not immediately clear. Looking quickly, they are certainly both more extensively referenced and better written than many borderline cases we do accept. I'll look into it in more detail when I have some time. Perhaps the best test, is what are the best two references for each article that are [[WP:GNG|significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject]]? Though even experienced editors disagree on what's "significant" or "reliable". [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 17:15, 8 March 2020 (UTC)
::Then I would say that Al Haj doesn't satisfy GNG, while Khalife does. Do you agree?

It's a bit borderline, and it would be nice if a couple of the references were more in detail, but I think the sum total of everything is good enough. I'd oppose deletion if the article existed. As for Peter Khalife - not quite as well referenced, but a couple of the references are a bit more detailed. Still borderline - perhaps slightly stronger. Some would argue delete for both I'm sure. Good luck - I'm not really sure what supposed to happen with such large quarantines. All very unexpected! [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 02:09, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

:* Gosh, I've never received a warning for a single revert before [[User:Woody]] ... I'm not sure what your revert 1 is ... it's a completely different edit than the first edit, which addressed the concerns after the initial - 1-character, edit. As Clarkson started on Top Gear around 1988 or so, my first edit was simply to correct what appeared to be a typo of 2002 to 1988. Then when that got reverted, the following day I inserted new text differentiating between his first 21 series of Top Gear between 1988 and 1998, and his later 22 seasons between 2002 and 2015. Surely that isn't actually a revert, as it was substantially different text, intended to address the concerns of [[User:Chaheel Riens]]. And yes, then I did a single RR. Even if you count the second edit as an RR (I'm curious about that), I was only at 2. Surely best to warn at 3, so that the troublesome 4th edit wouldn't happen ...
:* But hang on, [[User:Woody]], you are raising this 23 hours after I edited this?!? I'm not sure how such minor edits on an article about a B-list journalist seems to be so contentious ...
:* And could [[User:Chaheel Riens]] avoid the unnecessary critical edit summaries? I said myself that it didn't flow very well, after you rejected the initial correction. Not sure why you want to differentiate so much between 2001 Top Gear and 2002 Top Gear. 2002 looks more like 2001 than it looked like 2015. Please work co-operatively with other editors ... I really don't care how it get's phrased, but initially using 1998 in the lead (it's a lead, not a lede - UK spelling for this article), and then a paragraph later getting into 1988 doesn't flow well. Something needs to change ... if you don't like the way I changed it, you try and fix it, instead of just reverting every attempt to have it make more sense. At least [[User:Davey2010]] liked it ...

Hindsight ia a glorious thing: I should not have labelled it as 3RR nor gone into reverts, this was a note about edit warring more than the bright line of 3RR. I didn't want to template the regulars rather I had hoped to stop any more reverts and push it to the talk page. In terms of not being complete reverts and being amended text I take your point: it wasn't a plain revert, but your edit was still contested and that should have then gone to the talk page rather than long edit summary discussion. Sadly, I'm continuously amazed by what is deemed contentious on Wikipedia and I don't think it will ever cease to amaze me. In terms of your last paragraph Nfitz and your responses {{u|Davey2010}} I think these would be much better placed at the article talk page so it can go towards addressing the issue in one place: preferably on the article talk page as it pertains to article content.

:::As one of the two editors involved, I'll add what I hope to be neutral comments about both our behaviour.
:::*Templating either of us wasn't required.  Whilst this was obviously a content dispute, talkpage discussion had begun, and the editing had stopped.  So nut sure why Woody feels that he needed to template (or indeed warn in any manner) us to "stop any more reverts and push it to the talk page" - when that had already happened.
:::*I accept my edit summaries were overly critical - bad day and all that - and were probably provocative.  Apologies, and noted for future.
:::*I've always maintained that an edit becomes contetnious as soon as it is reverted.  The actual ''first'' edit may not have been contentious, but as soon as it is reverted - vandalism or pointy notwithstanding - the very act of reverting shows that at least one editor in the world disagrees, and thus there is contention.  That is the very core of BRD.
:::I'm quite happy to discuss this elsewhere - either my own talk page, or the article page, but there seems to be more open discussion here at the moment about the manner of editing, rather than the content itself.

I am focusing on non-league season articles in general, and Newport seem to have a lot of them). [[User:REDMAN 2019|<span style="color:#daa520">REDMAN 2019</span>]] ([[User talk:REDMAN 2019|<span style="color:#c0c0c0">talk</span>]]) 15:57, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
: But you've also included pre-1920 Southern League seasons, when it was the third tier of English football. This is inconsistent with past treatment. And really, if there's only a single season, and the team remains fully-professional, that the team drops down a level, before jumping back up ... how is notability going to be any different for that season. You are applying non-existent black-and-white rules to articles that have been fine for years. Surely, there's better uses of everyone's time. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 00:30, 9 September 2020 (UTC)
::The Southern league was ''not'' part of the Football league at the time, hence the non-league part of my nominations. There is currently no consensus that I can find as to weather early Southern League seasons are notable or not. Which is why I have AFD'ed the articles to see what others views are on them. I now see that Southern League seasons ''are'' considered notable and there will be no more nominations on such articles.

::::Yes I probably should have asked others first. Maybe AFD'ing all of them without any confirmation as to weather they were notable or not was a mistake.

== Just a note ==

Hey there! I just wanted to possibly give you a quick word of advice about [[Talk:Proud Boys#Claim that Proud Boys are racist]] - while I'm sure you absolutely mean well and are just trying to ensure that the other editor is aware of one of the ways that their messages may be interpreted, it's always best to assume good faith and not allege that they're spreading discriminatory beliefs. I've archived the discussion just to try and prevent any heated arguments, and to help keep the talk page on-topic, since the edit request it's related to is has already been answered. [[User:ItsPugle|ItsPugle]] <small>(please [[:Template:ping|ping]] on reply)</small> 08:05, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
::Surely, [[User:ItsPugle]], it would be remiss of me, or anyone, to not mention that someone is spreading blatant racist propaganda. I was AGFing, otherwise I'd have pointed out the user was racist, rather than simply spreading racist propaganda, which could of course by accidental. Though given the edit history, and the brevity of it, I think my AGD was generous. Also - shame on you for implying there are "sides" to racism. You are literally normalizing racism. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 14:22, 1 October 2020 (UTC)
:::I'm just stepping in to stop the article talk page being used for irrelevant discussion about the technicalities of a word.

::: Wrong - I attributed it to you in the comments. Please don't make false claims. Your sense of ownership here is completely unacceptable.

I'm not seeking to delete the article because I have a pre-existing draft, I'm seeking to delete it because I think it is non-notable, as I clearly explained at the AFD, and as community consensus at the previous AFD ''five days ago'' which resulted in the article being deleted clearly concluded.

Thanks for your responses at the Deletion Review and on Doczilla's talk. Given the first Afd, where it listed references, I saw no need to list them again.

I was looking for an archive of the now deleted article too. Any suggestions? --[[User:Hipal|Hipal]] ([[User talk:Hipal|talk]]) 22:19, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
:* You could ask for it to be temporarily undeleted for the course of the DRV, in the DRV thread. Might be useful, given I had no idea how extensive it was, when I "voted" to relist. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 22:43, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
:::This may be the first deletion review I've involved myself with, so apologies for the questions, and thanks for the help. Looking more at the instructions, I probably should have gone directly to an admin to get the deletion undone while review is underway. Where should I request it be restored?

The personal commentary [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2022_February_24&diff=prev&oldid=1074808625] is not appreciated and disruptive.

:I was trying to mitigate the impact of comments you made in your request - which I thought was unlikely to happen after you started saying all sorts of extra stuff in the request. Nothing personal. It really helps in an AFD and DRV to avoid tones that aren't neutral - and I say that from years of sounding really annoyed in such discussions. :) Looks like it's undeleted now. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 22:39, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
::Thanks.
:::Tone? Neutral? I think I pointed out clear facts. As I keep saying, it is very alarming that SPAs can get away with this so easily. I thought deletion processes were better at handling such situations. --[[User:Hipal|Hipal]] ([[User talk:Hipal|talk]]) 18:30, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
::::By tone, I mean things like your opening remark at DRV like ''Another attempt to whitewash the article by deletion by a bunch of SPA accounts''. This condemns those who wanted to delete it in two different ways. Better just to write something like "''those who supported keeping pointed out that the article is well referenced, with some references in major publications passing GNG", while those wanting to delete claimed otherwise, without any proof; there are also concerns about SPA and low-edit counts''".
::::The conclusion I've been coming to over the years, that many of the "senior" editors here are very young - often well under 40 - and have lead a very sheltered existence where they receive medals for just participating, and have never encountered criticism during their education or work career - and instead take any negativity personally as harassment and attacks, rather than just discussion. Part of this is that they see the negativity, and their brains shut off, going into panic mode, and don't even process the full meaning of what is written, stuck on the incomprehensibility of someone speaking bluntly. I say this from experience, and at risk of the WikiPutins putting me on the rack again :). [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 21:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
:::::Thanks. Again, those are the facts. I certainly could have worded it better, but to focus on that seems a waste of time at best.
:::::This is a volunteer-run encyclopedia, and the work environment here is chaotic and often hostile. Best focus on content and policy, and avoid inflaming a situation where it's clear we have NOTHERE editing going on from throw-away accounts.
:::::That appears to be my very first time at DRV. I've got a good feel now of what to do if I ever come across the need again, but I hope that won't be for a very long time. --[[User:Hipal|Hipal]] ([[User talk:Hipal|talk]]) 22:27, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

== "I wish someone would add {{tl|Use mdy dates}} to all the Canadian articles" ==
I just saw the above at WP:ANI.

Please don't. According to [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#Strong national ties to a topic]] "Articles related to Canada may use either format with (as always) consistency within each article." So no date format template, {{tl|Use mdy dates}} or {{tl|Use dmy dates}}, should be used until there is an actual date put in. Cheers.

:I disagree. I also don't know why one would ever use dmy dates - official usage in Canada is ymd, and mdy is also common. Outside of the financial world (which is increasingly using ymd), I don't see much dmy usage. I don't see any need to not put in the template if there is no dates. And to a great extent, I'm relatively neutral on either format - I only think that they should all be the same ... and I shouldn't have to worry about what format to put in a reference. I'm certainly not going to go on a crusade. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 21:16, 21 April 2022 (UTC)

==PRODs==
Hello, Nfitz,

Thank you for creating redirects from some articles that were recently PROD'd. I think in these cases, redirecting the page was the better solution than deletion. The high number of articles tagged with PRODs for today was definitely an anomaly that will not be repeated. I appreciate editors like yourself that review articles that have been PROD'd and either find some additional sources or come up with a better solution than deletion. Many thanks! <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 23:04, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
* Thanks. But will it stop, [[User:Liz]]? I see more poor prods, poor AFDs, and poor redirects in the last hour or two by [[User:TenPoundHammer]]. I'm puzzled why no one is bringing this to ANI. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 23:38, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
*:The only real issue was that I prodded 300+ articles in one day, which Liz informed me of and which I agreed not to do again. In the AFDs I made, I have tried to point out that I ''did'' do a [[WP:BEFORE]]. {{ping|Cunard}} was able to make something from nothing and rescued a whole bunch of these, for which I applaud them. (Perhaps they have access to some sort of source wizardry that I don't? I was legit getting ''zero'' hits on GBooks, Newspapers.com, etc. for some of these.) I'm letting the other AFDs run their course, keep or delete. <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> • <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 23:41, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
*::That is most certainly NOT the only issue [[User:TenPoundHammer]]. At a minimum, those prods should have been redirects to the list of network programming. There've been many prods on other days, almost all of them have failed. Including today. Then there's the choice of redirect targets, which I've pointed out, and you've agreed that there's a batter target - but not only have you not gone and fixed the ones you already did - you've created more! And finally there's the AFDs that you continue to create. If any have delete consensus I haven't seen them (but there's so many, I can't possibly look at them all. I do not understand why this isn't being discussed at ANI. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 23:55, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
*:::Maybe because there ''are'' ones that had consensus to delete? And because I'm not turning around and AFD'ing every declined prod? And am visibly working on [[User:TenPoundHammer/TV cleanup]] to raise awareness of problem articles? And am working on getting two articles through GAN, one through GAR, and one through DYK among others? And because I added the sources that Cunard found to a few of the articles? And added sources to articles that got prodded or deprodded? And just added sources to random articles that I felt needed a touchup, like [[Frank Nicotero]]?
*:::There is no [[Mr. Bean (season 1)]] article, so redirecting the Mr. Bean article to [[List of Mr. Bean episodes]] when it had literally zero sources is not a problem is it? <span style="color:green">'''Ten Pound Hammer'''</span> • <sup>([[User talk:TenPoundHammer|What did I screw up now?]])</sup> 23:58, 1 May 2022 (UTC)

*: You should be doing a BEFORE. Sure, if there's a single AFD to look at, adding a source to the article, or at least listing it here is reasonable; but when someone is creating dozens of simultaneous AFDs (very few of which are looking like there's consensus for deletion), and hundreds of prods, that's asking a bit much.

:::The issue is that my personal opinion is that Northern Ireland is not comparable to Hong Kong? I suppose that's personal opinion ... but a number of people had already opined on whether it was the same or not, and it was relevant, given the current ITN posting about the Northern Ireland election. It's that Sinn Féin is Republican that makes the case for Northern Ireland elections being notable - and especially so given it's history - which is relatively unknown outside the UK (i.e. for the majority of those participating in Wikipedia). I can see an argument that it may not be relevant (though I'd disagree), but I'm completely baffled by the NPOV comment, [[User:Fakescientist8000]]! Just because I used "groundbreaking"?

Thanks for reaching out, I appreciate it. My main point is that we have many, many human name articles where it's like a dozen names and a handful of surnames, or vice versa, and nobody ever complains about them being together. For Joseph, it's not a handful. In this case, people actually found the two surnames after the AfD was filed, and added them there instead of the main article. The separation can make sense, but this one seems contrived. --[[User:Joy|Joy &#91;shallot&#93;]] ([[User talk:Joy|talk]]) 08:35, 11 December 2022 (UTC)

== Toronto Deputy Mayor ==

Enough already, you should read the City of Toronto Act, and all major news sources in Canada. 

Once the resignation takes place, the deputy mayor assumes the role of mayor and Council meets to declare the office of mayor vacant and within 60 days of the office being declared vacant must pass a bylaw requiring a by-election to take place.

Everything you commented was just speculation, not grounded in real facts and news sources. Even if McKelvie were to run herself, that does not negate the fact that she is deputy mayor and as per City of Toronto the deputy mayor succeeds the mayor. She has not resigned as deputy mayor, and if she wanted to, that is just speculation and there is a process for succession as well. For McKelvie not to be acting mayor would require both Tory and McKelvie to both resign their positions at the exact same time, of which there is no indication of such a thing happening. 

“The City of Toronto Act says that once a city council member, including the mayor, resigns, council must declare their seat vacant at their next meeting. In this instance, that could happen as soon as Wednesday, when city council votes on the latest budget, but it will depend on whether Tory steps down before then.
Within 60 days of the the mayor's seat being declared open, city council must pass a bylaw requiring that a byelection be held to fill the vacancy, according to the act.”

https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.6745210

“Under the City of Toronto Act, Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will now take over the job until a byelection can be held.
She is likely to remain in the job for a period of months, as the City of Toronto Act requires that candidates be given a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of 60 days to file their nomination papers after a byelection is formally declared. 
Election day would then come 45 days later.”

:Where, [[User:Yeungkahchun]] in the City of Toronto act, does it mention that the deputy mayor takes over as Mayor? The City of Toronto act doesn't even mention deputy mayors (though does mention deputy clerks, deputy treasurers, and the possibility that the province creates regulations about the requirements of deputy head of councils (which they, as far as I know, haven't). The media reporting is contradictory. Looking at some of the ones you cite - 
* CP24 and the Toronto Sun says that McKelvie is poised ... which means nothing. General Haig was poised to become acting President - but as that was not the process, it never happened - no matter what Haig was posing. The leader of a failed coup is also poised to take over!
* G&M says McKelvie is likely to become interim mayor. Not that she will, but likely (and she is - but that doesn't mean we should be saying she will
:I've not even checked the rest. We shouldn't make concrete statements about speculative events - no matter how likely they might be. I await your response before considering reverting your edits. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 00:03, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

City of Toronto Act, 2006
Section 196: City of Toronto Municipal Code 
If the City passes a comprehensive general by-law that consolidates and includes the provisions of any by-law previously passed by the City,

(a)  the provisions in the comprehensive general by-law are deemed to have come into force on the day the original by-law came into force; and

(b)  any condition or approval required by law to the making of the original by-law is, where such condition was satisfied or approval obtained, deemed to have been satisfied or obtained in respect of the corresponding provision in the comprehensive general by-law.  2006, c. 11, Sched. A, s. 196.

From the City of Toronto Act, from official City of Toronto website (Toronto.ca)
https://www.toronto.ca/legdocs/municode/1184_027.pdf#page30

CITY OF TORONTO MUNICIPAL CODE 
CHAPTER 27, COUNCIL PROCEDURES
Article 1 Interpretation
§ 27-1.1. Definitions.

DEPUTY MAYOR - Any Member the Mayor appoints as Deputy Mayor to assist the Mayor , including one individual appointed by the Mayor as First Deputy Mayor to act as Mayor when the Mayor is absent from the City or due to illness or when the office of Mayor is vacant.

Deputy Mayor.
The Deputy Mayor has, and may exercise, all the rights, powers, and authority of the Mayor, except the by-right-of-office powers of the Mayor as a member of a Community Council


Major news sources: 

“Despite some speculation in Conservative circles that deputy mayor Jennifer McKelvie would launch a campaign, CBC News has learned that she is not going to run. McKelvie is in line to become acting mayor once Tory officially resigns, and would lead council through the upcoming budget process.”

https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.6745624

“ Once the office is declared vacant, Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will act as mayor until a by-election is held.”
https://www.theglobeandmail.com/amp/canada/article-john-tory-resignation-what-next/

“ If Tory’s resignation takes effect in the coming days, anticipated McKelvie, who has served as Ward 25 Scarborough–Rouge Park since 2018 and was appointed deputy mayor in mid-November, will become the acting mayor at that time.”
https://toronto.citynews.ca/2023/02/10/john-tory-resignation-new-toronto-mayor/amp/
 
“ Under the City of Toronto Act, Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will now take over the job until a byelection can be held.”
https://beta.ctvnews.ca/local/toronto/2023/2/10/1_6269718.amp.html

Even if the City of Toronto Act had not designated the Municipal Code which provides for the definition and  role of deputy mayor in assuming the powers of mayor once the office of mayor is vacant, 
It is important to note that virtually all major news sources are stating that the deputy mayor is next in line.
If that’s what all the major news sources (even if they are wrong in interpreting the law), then that’s what we must base Wikipedia on. All the news sources are reporting
 “Under the City of Toronto Act and the Toronto Municipal Code, Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will now take over the job until a byelection can be held.” 
(As per CTV, CBC, Global, CP24, CityNews etc)
Why are we blatantly ignoring the news? 

Recall 
 Wikipedia only includes topics that are covered by sufficient secondary sources (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Wikipedia_is_a_tertiary_source)

Prefer secondary sources – Articles should rely on secondary sources whenever possible. For example, a paper reviewing existing research, a review article, monograph, or textbook is often better than a primary research paper. When relying on primary sources, extreme caution is advised. Wikipedians should never interpret the content of primary sources for themselves (see Wikipedia:No original research and Wikipedia:Neutral point of view).
(https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources#Scholarship)

So using secondary sources, overwhelmingly MOST of the country’s major media news outlet (CTV, CBC, CP24, CityNews, Global, Globel & Mail etc) are saying “McKelvie WILL be mayor”.  Yes, several of the articles state “poised to”, “set to”, “will likely” but most of them use concrete terms such as “will”, “will now”, “shall”, “will become”. This is what the news is saying, not me. If the major news media had not all reported this, I would’ve agreed with you. But I base my writing on secondary sources, major reputable news media sources that is, rather than my own “what if” speculations (what if she runs herself, what if she resigns, what if she gives the role away to someone else, what if the council appoints another deputy). 
Now I will ask of you, where are the major reputable news sources which indicate that the city council will randomly appoint an individual, who is NOT the deputy mayor, to fulfil the interim role once the mayor’s resignation takes effect? I will wait. Please provide the major reputable news sources which indicate that the deputy mayor is not the officer who will fulfil the interim mayor role.

Now CBC has confirmed McKelvie will not be running now, so unless she resigns as deputy before Tory resigns office, she is set to be interim mayor.

:That by-law, [[User:Yeungkahchun]], says that the deputy mayor acts as mayor, when the mayor is unavailable or out of town. This has already happened multiple times. It does not say they become mayor. I see nothing to indicate that they won't still be officially the deputy mayor. Presumably the city will re-establish the Office of the Deputy Mayor, similar to what they did when they stripped Rob Ford of most of his powers. Also, I see no such title anywhere as "interim mayor" - can you reference that? 

:You claim that your sources say that “McKelvie WILL be mayor” - but looking at the sources, they DO NOT SAY THAT. They say she will act as mayor - as she has done on previous occasions. Besides - why the [[WP:NORUSH]] and the TLDR (though I did)? [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 05:09, 13 February 2023 (UTC)

The sentence says “Any Member the Mayor appoints as Deputy Mayor to assist the Mayor , including one individual appointed by the Mayor as First Deputy Mayor to act as Mayor when the Mayor is absent from the City or due to illness or when the office of Mayor is vacant.”

The sentence indicates the member “to act as Mayor”… (acts as mayor = acting mayor) literally says so itself: acts as mayor

the last part of the sentence: “OR when the office of Mayor is vacant.”

If one is acting as mayor, it literally means you are acting mayor.

Acting means temporarily fulfils the role of office (gaining the powers & title of the office) when the office is vacant/unavailable

The member acts as mayor when the office of mayor is vacant. A mayoral resignation means the office of mayor is vacant (nobody is occupying/holding the office of mayor)

I agree with your point here though: Presumably the city will re-establish the Office of the Deputy Mayor, similar to what they did when they stripped Rob Ford of most of his powers

“ Once the office is declared vacant, Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will act as mayor until a by-election is held.” https://www.theglobeandmail.com/amp/canada/article-john-tory-resignation-what-next/

Will act as mayor = acting mayor 

“ If Tory’s resignation takes effect in the coming days, anticipated McKelvie, who has served as Ward 25 Scarborough–Rouge Park since 2018 and was appointed deputy mayor in mid-November, will become the acting mayor at that time.” https://toronto.citynews.ca/2023/02/10/john-tory-resignation-new-toronto-mayor/amp/

= will become the acting mayor at the time 

“ Under the City of Toronto Act, Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie will now take over the job until a byelection can be held.” https://beta.ctvnews.ca/local/toronto/2023/2/10/1_6269718.amp.html

= will now take over the job until a by-election can be held

All the sources say she will be the acting mayor. They are not saying she will become the next mayor following the election, (the next permanent mayor will be elected in the by-election) they are saying she will become the acting mayor

There are literally numerous articles  from major news outlets referencing her as the acting mayor

Did you even listen to the Tory resignation speech where Tory literally referenced transition with Deputy Mayor McKelvie

“I will be working with deputy mayor Jennifer McKelvie to ensure an orderly transition in the coming days.”

https://www.theglobeandmail.com/amp/canada/article-toronto-mayor-john-torys-resignation-speech/

I was literally watching CTV news channel on my own tv, the headline chyron on my tv screen literally  stated “McKelvie is Acting Mayor”.  I can literally email or text you a picture I took of the tv screen with the news headline. 

On CP24 the news headline chyron “McKelvie becomes Acting Mayor”

You stated “That by-law says that the deputy mayor acts as mayor, when the mayor is unavailable or out of town.”

You left out the last part of the sentence of the bylaw “OR when the office is vacant.”

You stated “They say she will act as mayor - as she has done on previous occasions.” 

That’s what the sources and I are literally saying, she will act as mayor — once Tory has resigned. She will act as mayor (that’s what an acting mayor does) til the byelection  takes place that will elect the permanent mayor! <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Yeungkahchun|Yeungkahchun]] ([[User talk:Yeungkahchun#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Yeungkahchun|contribs]]) 06:03, 13 February 2023 (UTC)</small> [[User:Yeungkahchun|Yeungkahchun]]

I was not the one who wrote the text “Upon assuming the powers & duties of mayor, McKelvie will become the first female mayor or acting mayor of Toronto post-amalgamation". 

He has not officially unresigned. As of now, his intention is to resign as per Friday’s resignation announcement. Nothing has changed.  

The source literally confirms the fact the existence of the interim / acting / caretaker mayor, and that she will not inherit the newly enhanced strong powers from 2022 strong act. The source you cited literally stated strong powers do not transfer to the interim / acting / caretaker mayor.

“But in a statement provided to CTV News Toronto on Monday, a spokesperson for the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing confirmed that the powers cannot be transferred to a caretaker mayor, such as his deputy Jennifer McKelvie.
“Strong Mayor powers do not transfer to the interim/acting mayor,” Victoria Podbielski said.” 


From the very source that you cited.  

https://www.cp24.com/news/acting-mayor-won-t-possess-new-enhanced-powers-in-the-event-of-tory-resignation-province-1.6271652

Please learn to read critically.


And that is just 1 source CP24, whereas most sources all confirm deputy as caretaker/interim/acting/temporary mayor, even CP24 itself has newer articles confirming so.

recent source 
“Tory's office said he met with Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie and city staff Monday morning to talk about how best to ensure "an orderly transition," signalling his intention to leave once budget talks are complete.

Deasley noted "further details" on the transition will be announced after the budget meeting.”

* Please sign your posts. You just wrote "the powers cannot be transferred to a caretaker mayor, such as his deputy Jennifer McKelvie." That means that she might become <s>deputy </s> acting mayor. Not that she will. Also, he can't unresign - he hasn't resigned. However, we are heading into Angel/pin territory here, with some arguing at cross-purposes. What exactly do you not like in the current edit? You certainly can't state in her infobox that she is the presumptive acting mayor! And you most certainly can't say "will become the first female mayor or acting mayor of Toronto" as a) she has been acting mayor before when Tory was unavailable, and b) there is no source for that. Please discuss further here [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 03:55, 15 February 2023 (UTC)

“She might become deputy mayor” What are you talking about? McKelvie has been Deputy Mayor since her appointment on November 16, 2022

https://toronto.citynews.ca/2022/11/16/jennifer-mckelvie-deputy-mayor/amp/

At the time, what I meant was that Tory cannot unresign, as he has not even resigned yet. Again please READ. I said his INTENTION was to resign, as per his Friday ANNOUNCEMENT. Do you know what the word “intention” means? 

Above I literally wrote 
“He has not officially unresigned. As of now, his intention is to resign as per Friday’s resignation announcement. Nothing has changed”

Like seriously. Please. 

Anyhow, this has all been put to rest now as Tory has just submitted his formal letter of resignation, to take effect February 17, 2023, at 5 pm and confirmed now that Deputy McKelvie will succeed, as all the news sources have confirmed.

Yes you are absolutely correct here, her title would remain Deputy Mayor, and she would would only temporarily obtain the mayor’s powers (except the enhanced strong powers from the the Strong Mayors Act 2022, as confirmed by the Province) as acting mayor in a caretaker capacity.

Please stop disruptively undoing  {{ping|GoodDay}}‘s edit of Acting mayor-designate. The term “-designate” or “-elect” indicates that the role is yet to be assumed
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/-elect

As per Wikipedia “ An * officer * -elect / designate is a person who has been elected / appointed to a position but has not yet been installed.” 

_____-designate or -elect is not a title, it a suffix added which indicates that the role is to be assumed, at a later date. [[User:Yeungkahchun|Yeungkahchun]] ([[User talk:Yeungkahchun|talk]]) 05:23, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

Can you now stop with all the original research please - why anyone thought there'd be an "acting mayor" or "interim mayor" or "acting mayor-designate" I don't know ... as this didn't happen last time! [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 06:47, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Fair, as it now officially confirmed directly from the City via formal public statement from official channels. Now there is no room for doubt. As per the City Official Statement, there is no such office of acting mayor in the City of Toronto. With this direct clarification, we can confirm this. Previously, there was no outright public statement clarifying such amidst the all of the noise, thus there was room for doubt and speculation. Now all is clear beyond a reasonable doubt. There is no office of acting mayor, as per the City.  [[User:Yeungkahchun|Yeungkahchun]] ([[User talk:Yeungkahchun|talk]]) 08:07, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Irrelevant side note: Now I still see most news media still incorrectly using the acting/interim mayor terminology. But that doesn’t matter now, with the City’s formal public clarification of the transition process with the general public. I base my editing on factual information, and when that is not clear, I base it on the major news media. So now even as most major news media are wrong, I am sticking with the official city’s statement. Because at the end of the day, the City is the legitimate source and relaying its interpretations to the public.  [[User:Yeungkahchun|Yeungkahchun]] ([[User talk:Yeungkahchun|talk]]) 08:22, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
* Previously, [[User:Yeungkahchun]] we had The City of Toronto Act, the Municipal Elections Act, and Bill 3 (Strong Mayors, Building Homes Act), which also didn't have interim mayor and acting mayors. More importantly were the events of 2013/2014, where Norm Kelly remained the deputy Mayor - even while the mayor was institutionalized. The references I  checked that you kept quoting, were all rather vague and avoiding titles - more so just describing roles; (though that some foreign media may have taken that, and made errors, in the same way that you did, isn't surprising). I'm not sure what you are looking at today that is still incorrect. I have both today's Globe and Star open on the table here, and the Star simply uses Deputy Mayor, while the Globe very very clearly says that "Ms. McKelvie will not become interim or acting mayor". I'd suggest in the future, sticking to papers of record. Can I also suggest that be a lot more succinct in your responses, and pay careful attention to the exact wording of what you are using to support an argument - it has often felt that you've quoted a sentence of an article, but missed the full meaning of the sentence (such as "Did you even listen to the Tory resignation speech where Tory literally referenced transition "). And what's with the insulting aggressiveness you've used such as "Enough already, you should read the ...Act" and "Please learn to read critically.", "Like seriously."  BTW, looks like the Internet version of the G&M article is [https://www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/article-john-tory-toronto-mayor-resignation-timeline/ here].  [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 18:53, 17 February 2023 (UTC)

Most the major news sources (incorrectly!) had  headlines referring to acting mayor. 
I was just basing it off the major news sources, as most the major news sources wrongly made reference to acting/interim/caretaker mayor. (For example one article wrongly literally said “Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie is the new acting mayor”  https://nowtoronto.com/news/deputy-mayor-jennifer-mckelvie-is-the-new-acting-mayor/) 

The fact is that there is no such thing as acting/interim mayor. 

The major news sources from a week ago (now outdated & old):
   
“Here’s what you should know about Toronto’s acting mayor” (Now Toronto)

https://nowtoronto.com/news/deputy-mayor-jennifer-mckelvie-is-the-new-acting-mayor/

“Who is Jennifer McKelvie? More on the councillor set to become Toronto’s acting mayor” (CityNews) https://toronto.citynews.ca/2023/02/10/jennifer-mckelvie-john-tory-mayor-resignation/

“Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie to temporarily take reins once Tory resigns” (Toronto Sun) https://torontosun.com/news/local-news/deputy-mayor-jennifer-mckelvie-to-temporarily-take-reins-once-tory-resigns/wcm/fc3d1cc6-dfeb-4736-9b3e-b2f5e5bfa598/amp/

https://beta.ctvnews.ca/local/toronto/2023/2/10/1_6269718.amp.html

“Breaking News: Deputy Mayor Jennifer McKelvie becomes acting mayor” (Humber) https://humbernews.ca/2023/02/breaking-news-deputy-mayor-jennifer-mckelvie-becomes-acting-mayor/

We now know, that this is all incorrect, as per official City law. The indisputable fact, as verified by the City, is that no such office of “acting mayor” or “interim mayor.  

“Enough already” was just copied pasted from your initial edit on the page.

The major news sources were wrongly headlined refer to acting mayor (a lot but not most) . I stand corrected, at present, all of today’s news headlines are relaying the correct information and using the proper terminologies. 

This can all put to rest now, as there is no such thing as acting mayor. Confirmed by city. 

At this time, I extend heartfelt deepest sincerest apologies for the inappropriate tone used against you. I appreciate you and thank you for all the useful and good contributions you have contributed on Wikipedia, and keep it up. Wikipedia needs and benefits from users like you, who are clear-eyed and continue to press on with the right thing even amidst any controversies or misinformed speculation. Again, I express fullest apologies for the harsh tones. You were right about the non existence of the office of acting mayor. I recognize that the city confirms there’s no such thing as acting mayor and I recognize the news sources were incorrect annd often vague, I recognize this and own up to it all.

No hard feelings, I do deeply regret the tone used, I realize it was aggressive, inappropriate and inartful. Throughout this discourse, you have been polite and back up your  with reasonings. 

Glad we can move on a good note, I never want discussion on a bad terms, I fully express regret for the harsh tones. No hard feelings. 

You are a good insightful Wikipedian, and Wikipedia has a lot to gain from you and your efforts. 

PS. Hope the next mayor will do good for the City of Toronto!

In my opinion it's crazy how football pages with many sources and/or appearances in pro leagues are getting spam nominated for deleted nowadays like [[Kibu Denis]], [[Chris McStay]], [[Felipe Ortiz (footballer)|Felipe Ortiz]], [[Ömer Aysan Barış]], [[Fabio Ulderici]], [[2021–22 ÖFB-Frauenliga]], [[Christopher Chung (footballer)|Chris Chung]], [[Luka Jovanovic]], [[Aurélien Hérisson]], [[2005–06 Udinese Calcio season]], and [[Eriko Goya]] Thanks, [[User:Das osmnezz|Das osmnezz]] ([[User talk:Das osmnezz|talk]]) 07:42, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
* I agree - it makes it very difficult to tell the wheat from the chaff - or heck have time to tell the wheat from the chaff. It's certainly a good way to lose articles for various, often diverse, players and leagues, which are so much more work to source than players in English-speaking nations. Wait ... Udinese - really? I didn't see that one; you have to be kidding me!

== Airline destination lists ==

I’m genuinely confused at this point over certain editor’s reasoning regarding these. The same lists for American, Air Canada and Air New Zealand are of no better quality than the 13 deleted, yet still exist. What gives? [[User:SurferSquall|SurferSquall]] ([[User talk:SurferSquall|talk]]) 02:22, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
:Especially as some AFDs were SNOW keeps. And then there's this RFC ([[WP:Village pump (policy)/Archive 140#Should Wikipedia have and maintain complete lists of airline destinations?]]) which then lead to an AN discussion at [[WP:Administrators' noticeboard/Archive296#Mass deletion of pages - question of protocol]] which notes that ''"These AfD's should contain a link to the closed RfC, and the AfD closer should take the RfC closure into account when closing the AfD"'' ... oh wait, that's all in the AFD. Should have been obvious, I suppose, that the outcome from the AN ruling would be that BIAS would be the outcome. That said, looking at the AFD, I don't see how the original decision would be overturned. None of the Keep arguments were made on policy, and we have community consensus that such articles shouldn't exist. Other than a GNG argument - that no one made, it's hard to see what basis there'd be for keep. I'm not even sure the use of such an article. Knowing which destinations an airline serves isn't much use, if you don't know where the origin! It's all fine knowing that United serves Wichita and Walla Walla. But do they have a Wichita to Walla Walla route? It seems an surprisingly controversial topic area, that falls into the less I know about it the better, category. Though the choice of airlines selected for this treatment is unusual. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 03:07, 27 May 2023 (UTC)

:::::Probably GNG for those (I'm not sure I support that, but that's what the arguments will be). There's a lot of major news coverage here in recent years for Porter Airlines as it expands, and adds new services. And also the cancellation of previously major Air Canada services. That GNG doesn't necessarily mean keep, after than RFC and AN ... but I bet that's how it ends. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 02:37, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

I wonder if having article improvement and nomination all in the same stream is still the best approach (though it does at least get more eyes). Meanwhile, it almost feels like some are trying to be [[w:|Wikinews]]; and some of the nominations have been very local (as a Canadian, I'll point to the Johnston resignation - which while it may ultimately have massive global implications, is certainly not anything other than a local Canadian story for now).

== [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mug shot of Donald Trump]] ==

Please don't accuse a living person of crimes that he hasn't been convicted of: the BLP policy applies even at AfD and even when it's Donald Trump. Thanks. [[User:Extraordinary Writ|Extraordinary Writ]] ([[User talk:Extraordinary Writ|talk]]) 05:50, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
* I don't think that applies, as he's most certainly a criminal after the judgement in [[E. Jean Carroll v. Donald J. Trump]] affirmed that Trump had raped Carroll. As for the racism, I think that [[Racial views of Donald Trump]] speaks for itself; not to mention the 1975 consent decree. Please [[User:Extraordinary Writ]] don't try and pretend that Trump is not a rapist. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 06:05, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
**BLP simply doesn't let you call someone a criminal without a criminal conviction, which the ''Carroll'' verdict was not. I'm not going to press this any further, but there are plenty of admins who take BLP even more seriously than I do, so I would strongly suggest reverting your most recent edit to that AfD. [[User:Extraordinary Writ|Extraordinary Writ]] ([[User talk:Extraordinary Writ|talk]]) 06:40, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
***A court of law ruled that he raped someone. That surely meets BLPCRIME. Shame on you for suggesting raping women - with one's penis - isn't a criminal act! Please revert your abhorrent redaction, [[User:Extraordinary Writ]]. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 07:13, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
****I did not (and would not) suggest that: I'm simply saying that calling someone a criminal requires a conviction through the criminal (not civil) process. And even putting that aside, what I redacted certainly did not treat the subject {{tq|conservatively}}, {{tq|cautiously}}, or with a {{tq|high degree of sensitivity}}, as the BLP policy requires. Obviously we're not going to agree here, so if you really believe my revdel is "abhorrent", you're welcome to take it to [[WP:AN]] or [[WP:AARV]] for further review. I'm going to bed now, so any admin who thinks I'm in the wrong here has my blessing to un-revdel. [[User:Extraordinary Writ|Extraordinary Writ]] ([[User talk:Extraordinary Writ|talk]]) 07:52, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
*****I'm off to bed too, so lots of chance to discuss further tomorrow. Is there some previous ruling that supports that? In the real world, use of the word "criminal" doesn't need a criminal (or even any) conviction - but I realise the BLP rules are tighter. It seems claiming in Wikispeak, that he's not a criminal because there's no criminal conviction, is ignoring that the victim didn't report the rape until after the statute of limitations passed. Given the court clearly affirmed that Donald Trump is a rapist - and we note that he is a rapist in mainspace - that calling him a criminal in wikispace leads to a redactment is ... bizarre - and morally inexcusable.

== Help!==
Greetings Mister [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] I did some edits to the page [[1998-99 Manchester United F.C. season]] regarding the squad statistics, by improving the context more simple for the readers e.g. the previous tables said nothing, now with my important edits the reader can realise the starter squad: the Goalkeeper was Peter Schmeichel, Right-back Defender was Gary Neville, Centre-backs were Jaap Stam and Ronny Johnsen, Left back was Denis Irwin. The right mid fielder was David Beckham, center midfielders were Roy Keane and Paul Scholes, left winger was Ryan Giggs among Strikers Andy Cole and Dwight Yorke. The bench with the most used players were Raymond van der Gouw, Teddy Sheringham, Jesper Blomqvist, Nicky Butt, etc. The tables include the option for viewing the squad in numbering order whether you like.

However, [[User:Mattythewhite|Mattythewhite]] reverted my edits without no explanation since seven days ago, he wants the previous table with it is difficult to comprehend the season, the starter players in their respective position.

Also, I improved the [[Draft:1992–93_FC_Desna_Chernihiv_season]] now we can read more comfortable the starter squad.

:@[[User:I dream of horses|I dream of horses]] Because the [[WP:DRV#Instructions|instructions at DRV]] says the first step is to "Consider attempting to discuss the matter with the closer as this could resolve the matter more quickly.

== Don't be the police with POV warriors ==

If they want to act out of concert with our social norms, they are painting themselves. We are not in a rush. If you wanted to be the behavior police, [[WP:RFA]] is thattaway. It's not a particularly good paying job, and eventually even a good faith admin is accused of POV warring themselves, just because they tend to be a balancing force. I'm sure this editor doesn't regard themselves as a problem; but they ''are demonstrating'' themselves to be. This is how Wikipedia works, as you know as well as I. (Both of us are getting our 20 this year.) If I say something stupid, I expect you to call me on it. [[User:BusterD|BusterD]] ([[User talk:BusterD|talk]]) 17:40, 31 March 2025 (UTC)
:I've been trying to help them rein it in; I'm not sure they are a POV warrior, as they do seem to learn from their misdeeds. Although the bizarre trying to play down RFK's decades of anti-vax hysteria that has literally killed people may have pushed me over the top a bit. Anyone trying to make up rules against our policy, to play down something, that could actually kill people, has crossed a line - given there is zero scientific evidence to support a bizarre fringe conspiracy. However, I've continued to try and push them in the right direction. But I gave up after their [[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Talk:The_Heritage_Foundation&diff=1283212224&oldid=1283215861#tantrum]] yesterday, to a constructive observation and suggestion; the irony is that their comment isn't completely wrong - the weight on one particular aspect of that group's behaviour is indeed slightly off kilter; and they've sparked a discussion to help fix it - but the battleground behaviour is going to end badly unless they rein it in.. However, there's clearly enough eyes on this now.

:That RFKJ's anti-vaccine advocacy is the hill they want to die on though is just baffling - and the blame that a discussion that has been going on at that page since last decade is "anti-right" is very disturbing, given that even recently, RFKJ was a prominent Democrat!

== Byelection  ==

Kurek announced his resignation and there is no evidence that he's rescinded it.

:No he didn't announce his resignation. He announced his intention to resign, just after the April election. As he's not resigned, he can't rescind it. Even that reference you found (and it's interesting to actually see some reporting on this - I could find nothing current), makes it clear he hasn't quit yet, and it talks of him not planning to quit for more than another month! Assuming there is going to be a by-election (especially given the Conservatives currently crashing in the polls, and the sound of the sharpening knives) is pure speculation. There was no rush in creating a subpage until such time as resignation is submitted. Also, why are you pretending I did it unilaterally. I pondered doing it on the Talk page, even pinging the person who erroneously created the article. And then I waited for a week, and heard no criticism of the idea. I guess the alternative is AFD.

::::Sorry, I thought the official results were expected to be Gazetted June 18th. Apparently this was done on May 15th. Which puzzles me given that the final judicial recount wasn't completed until May 23, and elsewhere they'd said 30 days after the throne speech, which wasn't until May 27.

::::::Gazetting for most ridings occurs ''up to'' 30 days after the ''election''. Gazetting makes an MP's election official. It wouldn't make sense for that to happen after the Throne Speech as there wouldn't be any MPs to read the Throne Speech to which is why the Throne Speech happens ''after'' the riding by riding election outcomes are published in the Gazette.

:::Because mine was a real suggestion on how an article can be improved. Your's is purely expressing your own emotional reaction to the subject. And it's especially important on the Talk:Killing of Charlie Kirk page because it's getting excessive traffic and there's no need to further clutter the disucssion with irrelavant reactions [[User:LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle|LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle]] ([[User talk:LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle|talk]]) 19:27, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
::::I don't see how NPV fear of what kind of shitshow the talk discussion is going to become, if it turns out that a far-right racist conspiracy theorist was killed by an extreme-right conspiracy theorist, @[[User:LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle|LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle]]. The right-left stuff is bad enough - but this adds 2 more dimensions of crazy! Its not like there was even a hint of controversiality of bias in what I said. Perhaps a bit chatty. But given your extremely limited Wikipedia experience, perhaps you stop telling me the wind direction of where I need to piss.

:::::It doesn't help contribute to improving the content of the article whatsoever. It's a simple as that. Let's not get into authority fallacies or get crude. 
:::::I think if we're gonna discuss experience it should be how even with your extremely extensive Wikipedia experience (top ≈[[Wikipedia:List of Wikipedians by number of edits|99.98%]] of editors), you're repeatedly on the same page violating one of the most simple and commonly violated guidelines and then grasping at straws to try attack me to deflect away from it instead of taking accountability.

::::::You simply haven't been here long enough to be able to understand fully the guidelines - let alone lecture people about them. If you have concerns, raise them on that page, and stop posting here. Unless you want to reveal the other user names you use to edit Wikipedia, to gain such experience. We aren't automatons. There's no policy against being concerned about how changing news stories are going to blow up discussions (which seem to have gotten even more bizarre since that theory came up).

:::::::And really ... you raise this TWO DAYS LATER, with the concern about it being a busy discussion? What is wrong with you? Turn around and look at yourself. And stop posting here. (gosh I haven't even touched that page in a couple of days - I'm the one you are expressing editing concerns about? I can only assume there's an ulterior motive here. Let's see the editing history ... wow, that's so short. Not much there before this other than trying downplay RFK's bizarre vaccine lies and conspiracy theories. Hmm.)

::::::::I actually helped provide a correct source on rfk's vaccine quote "autism comes from vaccines" when it was unclear whether it was real or not.

:::::::The WP:FORUM policy is extremely clear actually "bear in mind that article talk pages exist solely to discuss how to improve articles; they are not for general discussion or voicing opinions about the article topic or anything else" No amount of seniority clears you of this. 
:::::::It's still a very busy discussion so much that it's an issue admins have had to deal with it, I don't see how "2 days later" matters. (A bit less than 2 days if you wanna get nitpicky)
:::::::I wholeheartedly deny having multiple accounts
:::::::Also I'd remind you of WP:DNB  [[User:LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle|LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle]] ([[User talk:LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle|talk]]) 21:00, 14 September 2025 (UTC)
::::::::And I'd like to remind you @[[User:LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle|LachlanTheUmUlGiTurtle]], that when someone asks you to stay off their talk page, you can be banned for ignoring the request. If you have a concern, use the talk page for the page in concern (or perhaps you haven't got enough Wikipedia edits to post there? ☺ No, don't reply, that's a rhetorical question. Why you only seem to edit on the pages of conspiracy theorists I don't know (and I don't want to know). [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 01:21, 15 September 2025 (UTC)

== September 2025 ==

I have reverted your restoration of [[John Fraser (Canadian soccer)|this redirect]]. Redirecting was the outcome of the close at [[Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2025 August 30|this DELREV discussion]]. If you have a problem with the close where consensus to redirect was found, take that up with the closer ([[User:S Marshall|S Marshall]]) on their talk page, and if you are not satisfied with that discussion, take it to [[WP:AN]]. [[User:FOARP|FOARP]] ([[User talk:FOARP|talk]]) 06:34, 25 September 2025 (UTC)

:No it wasn't. The outcome was endorsement. Redirecting is fine - if it's not objected. You need to start an AFD if it's contentious. Oops, I pinged the wrong person. [[User:S Marshall]] see the comments in my rejection of the redirect. [[User:Nfitz|Nfitz]] ([[User talk:Nfitz#top|talk]]) 17:10, 25 September 2025 (UTC)

== Collège de l'Assomption ==

I just knocked off a quick stub on the [[Collège de l'Assomption]]. I noticed it was on your to-do list in checking in-coming links. I thought you might care to expand or improve it in some fashion. Best wishes.[[User:4meter4|4meter4]] ([[User talk:4meter4|talk]]) 14:59, 7 October 2025 (UTC)
