The dates are now off so why undo. It was like that before the end of the year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gunter79 ( talk • contribs) 21:26, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
@Snickers2686 I read most of what was discussed but didn't find the consensus part. But even then the dates for Blumenfeld and Scarsi as well as Meyers in fed claims have them out of order. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gunter79 ( talk • contribs) 22:02, 9 January 2020 (UTC)

Section heading added for clarity. Pam D 17:29, 4 February 2020 (UTC) Hi, Snickers2686,
My name is Kate Fogarty and I am the Clerk of Court for the United States District Court, District of MN. We have been working on updating profiles and images for the federal judges in MN. We noticed that you had replaced our updates to Judge Patrick J. Schiltz with the previous version. Judge Schiltz approved our edits before we posted them. My colleague, Cristian Cobos, will be going back in to repost what we had posted per the judge's request. Please let me know if you are seeing issues with our edits. Thank you, Kate — Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.241.40.127 ( talk) 16:38, 4 February 2020 (UTC)
Hello Snickers2686,
The first NPP source guide discussion is now underway. It covers a wide range of sources in Ghana with the goal of providing more guidance to reviewers about sources they might see when reviewing pages. Hopefully, new page reviewers will join others interested in reliable sources and those with expertise in these sources to make the discussion a success.
New to NPP? Looking to try something a little different? Consider patrolling some redirects. Redirects are relatively easy to review, can be found easily through the New Pages Feed. You can find more information about how to patrol redirects at WP:RPATROL.
Geographic regions, areas and places generally do not need general notability guideline type sourcing. When evaluating whether an article meets this notability guideline please also consider whether it might actually be a form of WP:SPAM for a development project (e.g. PR for a large luxury residential development) and not actually covered by the guideline.

Sir, You removed my edit from the page of Thomas W. Thrash stating that it was "unsourced negative material." Sir - I respectfully inform you that the material did cite the source as the case number 1:18-CV-5388 in the northern district of Georgia. The court records are public. In the case, Mr. Thrash is listed as the district judge and he is also listed as an accused. Please advise why you consider the material as "unsourced?"
Thanks! Wilkn ( talk) 01:52, 10 March 2020 (UTC)wilkn
While - as I pointed above - I respectfully disagree that the material is unsourced, I do agree that it is negative. I see and empathize with your hesitation. I do see that you do assume that the edit was done in good faith. Additionally, wikipedia should not limit free access to well sourced material. Towards that end - I am pasting my edit below - kindly help me rephrase so that your hesitation which is actually our hesitation is also preserved and the important information presented using verifiable source is also added. Thanks in advance!
"Thrash is involved in a legal battle with an Indian citizen. See case 1:19-CV-5388. Thrash chose to administer the case as the presiding judge, despite the fact that he was one of the accused named by the plaintiff, Dixit. Dixit alleges that Thrash is part of a conspiracy that forced him to fight a divorce case that involved two Indian citizens who were not just residing in India but had no bona fide status to be present in the US. Dixit published a book Punished for being a father describing the alleged conspiracy. Thrash dismissed the case stating that Dixit did not comply with the requirement set for in the magistrate judge's order."

Please note (see below) that Wikipedia policy favors omitting birth dates of U.S. federal judges for personal privacy and security reasons. Unless a compelling case can be made for including such, please respect the edit to simply include birth year. Thanks.

On 2 April 2020, In the news was updated with an item that involved the article James A. Redden, which you updated. If you know of another recently created or updated article suitable for inclusion in ITN, please suggest it on the candidates page. — Amakuru ( talk) 14:37, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

I hope you're doing well. I created an article for a new Florida Supreme Court appointee, and another user made a new article about 45 minutes after me, saw that their article came after, and redirected the one I made to theirs. What's the procedure for this? I haven't heard back from the user yet. – JocularJellyfish Talk Contribs 18:04, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
Even if magistrate judges are not inherently notable enough to have their own Wikipedia articles, I still think it may be permissible to add the names of magistrate judges to articles about the courts on which they serve. Which is what I did.
You directed me to the article Wikipedia:Notability (people). This article says:
"That person A has a relationship with well-known person B, such as being a spouse or child, is not a reason for a standalone article on A (unless significant coverage can be found on A); relationships do not confer notability. However, person A may be included in the related article on B. For example, Jason Allen Alexander is included in the article on Britney Spears and the page Jason Allen Alexander merely redirects to that article." (Emphasis added).
So, because these magistrate judges serve on courts that are notable enough to have their own articles, I think that the judges may be mentioned in these articles. Shoebringer ( talk) 22:29, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
@ Shoebringer: What notable magistrate judges are you referring to? Snickers2686 ( talk) 23:22, 2 June 2020 (UTC) @ Shoebringer:: Are you planning to make articles for all these magistrate judges? Otherwise it would go against WP:RED. Snickers2686 ( talk) 23:27, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi Snickers2686 - Can you advise why you removed my edits to this page? I corrected the job title, changed the language on title make it clearer, added the correct name of the country, etc. All verifiable and accurate.

@ Editor369: Where was your information verified from a reliable source? I didn't see any citations to back up those claims, that's why it was reverted. You did add some prior to the White House citation, but those claims were not in the White House citation, so again, that's why I reverted. If you can add sources to your claims, then feel free to add them again. Snickers2686 ( talk) 16:01, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
Thanks. I admit I'm not familiar with the way to source content here, but figured the title is easy as it's mentioned earlier and is a matter of public record. https://www.state.gov/biographies/kevin-blackstone/ What's the requirement to modify language that is confusing? For example, it's not accurate to say that the title of Minister-Counselor was held since '91; rather, that's the current title and the subject is a career officer for that period. Also unsure what source would be acceptable to add the few details on personal life. This is me, by the way - Kevin Blackstone. Editor369 ( talk) 16:25, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
@
Editor369: I see what you're saying now. You're right, as a career member of the foreign service, that's the main title. It's preferable that any addition of biographical information be sourced, so its addition isn't challenged in the future and privacy concerns can be alleviated via
WP:BLPNAME. However, if you're the subject of the article, then the rules are a little more lax, per
WP:BLPEDIT. At a minimum, you can put a references tag which includes Cite error: There are <ref>
tags on this page without content in them (see the
help page). to source your information. So it would look like this "reference tag" (
[1]) to add a citation, if applicable.

I removed the link because the material was covered by the cite immediately following, and the White House website link didn't connect with the article, and the internal search engine didn't bring it up either. Is there some other way to fix the problem? Activist ( talk) 22:12, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
Hello Snickers2686,
NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.
In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.

Just wanted to give you a heads-up that the White House plans on nominating David Leibowitz to Judge Moreno's seat on the Southern District of Florida. I have a draft prepped already with key details. I'll be online less frequently in the next few weeks, so if he is nominated in the near future, you can just make the relevant edits to the draft and move it to the mainspace. – JocularJellyfish Talk Contribs 01:01, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi Snickers2686,
Your edit to Morgan Christen, reverting my incorrectly edit-summaried edit, capitalizes a several common nouns without stating why. I've been referring to MOS:JOBTITLES and MOS:CAPS as a reference. Could you explain your reasoning when you have a moment? Dleit Ḵaa ( talk) 08:52, 20 June 2020 (UTC)
What are your thoughts on whether the article should be Cory T. Wilson or Cory Wilson? I think it should be Cory T. Wilson since many news articles refer to him with the initial, and his state court of appeals bio does as well. – JocularJellyfish Talk Contribs 20:42, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
Hi Snickers: I don't mean to get into an edit war, but I would appreciate knowing why you have reverted edits on this article twice. Iowalaw2 ( talk) 16:29, 2 July 2020 (UTC)
