Hi, it seems that I am somewhat inadvertently working my way through your list of yet-to-be-created Royal Navy DNB articles! I'm currently writing up Policarpus Taylor, which I note is now more commonly spelt as Polycarpus Taylor, and also have a rough draft going for Sir Andrew Leake. When Wilson Rathborne is eventually created it might actually appear as Wilson Rathbone, too. Pickersgill-Cunliffe ( talk) 09:24, 11 August 2022 (UTC)

Please undelete Thomas Lister, 2nd Baron Ribblesdale. The deletion did not meet any of Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, so should have been listed at WP:RFD, and on it's own merits it seems like a reasonable redirect.

Hello, Charles Matthews. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Sect Shinto".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 21:36, 13 December 2022 (UTC)

I am delighted to see an article on the Grand Allies at last. I have come across references to them in the Tanfield Railway and Causey Arch articles, but I was disappointed that they were not wikilinked. I even thought of starting an article on my own, but I was rather limited to online resources, and most of those seemed to be blogs and hobby sites - not meaning to be disparaging, but not quite what WP wants. You are very much better equipped than I am. Now I shall settle down and enjoy the article that I wished for. -- Verbarson talk edits 20:19, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. Fram ( talk) 10:54, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
Indeed. Let me note a few further things. You made a cross-namespace move redraftifying my article displaying {{ under construction}} before alerting me to a problem here. I don't think that is good practice. I was in the middle of editing that article, which is why there was an article remaining in mainspace that was puzzling (not least to me). You used a stock message here addressing me as a newbie, which I'm not and as you know since we've had many dealings before. I could have added {{ in use}}, which is not my habit because I have found {{ under construction}} is generally respected. I'm left wondering if {{ in use}} would have been respected.
I do not see that you have respected WP:DRAFTIFY parts 3, in fact. Your comment about recent edits seem to imply that. Charles Matthews ( talk) 11:50, 6 April 2023 (UTC)
On the content of William Gellibrand (settler): the paras about Australia were imported verbatim and in good faith from St Barnabas Church and Cemetery, South Arm, Tasmania, to establish a section. I had every intention of working over them. There is a great deal more in the Sadler reference, which I looked at in the library yesterday.
As for my ego - it is funny, considering all that has happened since 2003 here, that anyone should think it could be bruised. Really, though, if I actually were a newbie, I could find your approach off-putting. In fact it is bad for business, and this point has been made to you.

As the author of this article, I thought you should be consulted before I edited it to address some spelling variations that I wasn't sure how best to incorporate (or whether to incorporate them at all), or perhaps let you do it instead (should it be desirable to do so). In reviewing this copy of The Accedence of Armorie, edition of 1597, I see that the title contains two differences from the 1562 version (at least as cited by Internet Archive and in the Wikipedia article; the Oxford English Dictionary gives "Armorie" rather than "Armory" with date of 1562 under "sardonyx"). Easy enough to state that the title is variously spelled "Accedens/Accedence" and "Armory/Armorie". But the author's name is also spelled "Leigh" in the 1597 edition. Since he died not long after publishing the 1562 edition, I don't know whether this is a proper emendation or a hypercorrection. As a result, I don't know whether it should also be noted in the article—although I suspect it should. I consider myself a dabbler in heraldry, so I've never read this work before, and know nothing about the author besides what's in his article. So I'd like to ask your advice before making any additions concerning these variations, and perhaps defer to you if you'd like to incorporate them in some way, or think it would be a mistake to do so.

Hello Charles, I just wanted to drop a quick courtesy note to explain why I reverted your edit of Anthony R. Dickinson (removing the "may not be notable academic" tag). In short, there are two Tony Dickinsons! It seems there has been a long-running confusion in which Anthony R. Dickinson was presumed to be the FRS and all such links/templates were pointed to that article. In fact, it's a totally different person. The FRS is really Tony Dickinson.

A tag has been placed on Diego Ruiz de Montoya requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

"Peacocke" doesn't appear once in the article, and I was wondering whether the redirect is most useful there, or if the title could be used without disambiguation for the other article? Thanks, Pickersgill-Cunliffe ( talk) 02:52, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

The article Louise Nicholson has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
This article is a revived version of a previously deleted article for similar reasons. This piece is largely self-promotional, relating to a person that is neither "notable", not "high profile" per Wikipedia's guidelines. 3 out of 4 paragraphs of "career" have no source. Most sources are indirect and anecdotal.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot ( talk) 10:03, 15 January 2024 (UTC)
Hello, Charles. As part of some editing I did earlier today, I came across this edit summary which mentions a reputable organisation of which I am myself a member. The ACS is The Association of Cricket Statisticians and Historians. I have spoken to three of my colleagues in the meantime and we all agree that these odious remarks are lies which defame our reputation. The ACS is not a tabloid newspaper and we do not "discredit" people who write about cricket. Indeed, so far as the work in question is concerned, we serialised it in several issues of our quarterly journal in 2006! If that is discrediting someone's work, what must we do to show approval?
My friends and I agreed that, as a first step, I should approach the responsible party to seek an explanation. However, he appears to have become inactive and I wonder if this could be because he has been held to account by yourself for his many failures to observe WP:PRESERVE, something that we as cricket writers were already well aware of? Although we research and publish our own material, we want WP:CRIC to succeed because of the site's wide circulation which may encourage more cricket fans to become researchers. That will only happen if WP:CRIC's members work together and respect both each other and the site's policies. This individual, however, drives people away. We could, with research, provide a long list of condescending, belittling, and bullying edit summary comments which have targeted mainly new editors, including two I know personally who now refuse to edit this site (and one of them is a journalist who happens to be very adept at research and writing).
As you can see, the edit summary I found was written on 2 August 2021. If it had been a one-off, we could perhaps believe that it was done in momentary frustration, but it was not a one-off. In fact, he used the same summary SIXTEEN times on that day, and perhaps on other days too. As far as we are concerned, it is completely unacceptable, and it is the tip of an iceberg. That editor has made countless insults over many years and we are left wondering how he can have got away with it for so long.
Is there any way you, as an administrator, can revert or erase insulting edit summaries? We are not concerned about removal of the source from the article because so much goes unsourced that it does not matter to us as readers. If he had deleted the citation and made no comment we would not even notice, but he cannot be allowed to summarise his edits by insulting other people.
We are grateful to you for the action you have already taken and, if you can help us with this matter, that would be appreciated even more. I should mention that I have very limited availability at present because of a new work project (I have taken a day off today) but I will keep an eye on my watchlist. Thank you for your time and, whatever you decide (or are permitted) to do, all of us wish you the very best for 2024. Batagur baska ( talk) 14:52, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Hey there! This is to let you know that phase I of the 2024 requests for adminship (RfA) review is now no longer accepting new proposals. Lots of proposals remain open for discussion, and the current round of review looks to be on a good track towards making significant progress towards improving RfA's structure and environment. I'd like to give my heartfelt thanks to everyone who has given us their idea for change to make RfA better, and the same to everyone who has given the necessary feedback to improve those ideas. The following proposals remain open for discussion:
To read proposals that were closed as unsuccessful, please see Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review/Phase I/Closed proposals. You are cordially invited once again to participate in the open discussions; when phase I ends, phase II will review the outcomes of trial proposals and refine the implementation details of other proposals. Another notification will be sent out when this phase begins, likely with the first successful close of a major proposal. Happy editing! theleekycauldron ( talk • she/her), via:

Since you created the article, please can you arrange to correct an error in the current version? Paragraph one states "Nonsuch Palace (SNIP) was completed in 1538." But paragraph five states "Construction had been substantially carried out by 1541, but it took several more years to complete." I lack the knowledge to correct it myself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JMBryant ( talk • contribs) 14:43, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi! We're conducting a series of participatory workshops with Wikipedia editors, administrators, researchers, and Wikimedia employees to discuss, and hopefully improve, Wikipedia's structures for online research (see meta research page). In an effort to get the right people in the room to discuss these topics, I'm reaching out here to see if you are interested in participating as an active administrator. We'd work with you to ensure this workshop can fit into your schedule, but are targeting end of April/early May. I'm happy to discuss any of these topics further here or on our talk page.

I haven't restored anything. Charles Matthews ( talk) 15:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
I did not revert your admin action. I did go over points of content policy with a new editor. You are not using "restore" in the sense of Wikipedia:Viewing and restoring deleted pages, where the Restore button is discussed. Charles Matthews ( talk) 05:41, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
I don't accept that, in any way. You can criticise my admin action, naturally. You don't have to do that in the tone of 15+ years ago here, with the implication of wheel-warring. Charles Matthews ( talk) 05:22, 21 April 2024 (UTC)
OK, apology accepted. I want to add a footnote on the "publicly visible face of Wikipedia". According to Wikipedia:Controlling search engine indexing, the user talk namespace is not indexed by search engines. Charles Matthews ( talk) 05:44, 22 April 2024 (UTC)
