Thank you for your support and thoughts, with my review, and the peace bell by Yunshui! -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 11:55, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

Cloister bell! All the best:

- Yes, click on bell for the soft sound of peace (and jest) ;) -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 12:20, 2 January 2016 (UTC)
It appears that there has been enough work on references to delete the tag. What do you think?
Cheers, -- Beth Wellington ( talk) 16:49, 4 January 2016 (UTC)
- I think so. However the text did not reflect the references in a number of cases I looked at. The most egregious was saying that three people called the traffic stop a setup, when in reality only one of them is cited as saying it "looked like a setup".
- The section tag on the personal life should stay though.
- All the best:
Rich
Farmbrough, 17:18, 4 January 2016 (UTC).
A file that you uploaded or altered, File:Portrait-Beard Andrew Jackson.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Files for discussion. Please see the discussion to see why it has been listed (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry). Feel free to add your opinion on the matter below the nomination. Thank you. Fram ( talk) 17:15, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Dear Rich, great to see you unleashed again! would it be possible to update Wikipedia:Articles with UK Geocodes but without images and ideally set some sort of regular refresh on it? The current list is extremely stale because of the Arbcom problem, and it would be much simpler for newbies if we didn't have to ask them to manually remove ones where they'd added an image. I was also wondering if it could perhaps be subdivided into two or three separate lists, the current one includes Bermuda and also British South Atlantic territories despite them not being covered by the Geograph. Ideally I would like two lists, one covering the UK and the other Eire - that would give us some good exercises for newbies with a high proportion of articles having images already on commons. Ϣere SpielChequers 15:16, 5 January 2016 (UTC)::
- Unleashed is a relative term. It's more like I have managed to wriggle my big toe free! But I will see what I can do. Will probably recode from scratch, I have some ideas. All the best:
Rich
Farmbrough, 01:26, 7 January 2016 (UTC).
- Great. Instructions for it are currently at User:WereSpielChequers/image adding - at least one step drops out if we can get the list regularly refreshed. One of the risks of the current system is that people can easily choose the wrong river or village if the names are duplicated; The Geograph has a lovely facility for finding nearby images - I don't know if their code is as openly licensed as their images. If we can get something based on geocoding and nearby images then we could make this more than the UK. Another possible route would be to look at articles which lack images but which have intrawiki links to articles illustrated from commons. Ϣere SpielChequers 19:56, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

SpielChequers is wishing you
Seasons Greetings! Whether you celebrate your hemisphere's

Just to let you know that your comments re: A. Parker may have been somewhat misplaced. DS ( talk) 21:14, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

should we merge the history of CountryAbbr into Country abbreviation? Frietjes ( talk) 15:05, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if we should. If you look at
{{ Country abbreviation/sandbox}}there is nothing left of the original. However I have no objection. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 16:57, 12 January 2016 (UTC).
Hi- any chance of some semi-protection? I know I should go to the heavilly-backlogged WP:RPP, but we're getting caned by IP vandals atm. Check recent history. Cheers. Fortuna Imperatrix Mundi 18:47, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

The Wikimedia Foundation is currently running a consultation on the value and planning process of Wikimania, and is open until 18 January 2016. The goals are to (1) build a shared understanding of the value of Wikimania to help guide conference planning and evaluation, and (2) gather broad community input on what new form(s) Wikimania could take (starting in 2018).
After reviewing the consultation, we'd like to hear your feedback on on this survey.
In addition, feel free to share any personal experiences you have had at at a Wikimedia movement conference, including Wikimania. We plan to compile and share back outcomes from this consultation in February.
With thanks,

Could you please, when you "manually" create 17 misspelled template redirects in a row ( Template:ISO 3166 code Yemen Ḩajjah Governerate and the like) and then have to move all 17 a few minutes later, either uncheck the "leave a redirect behind" box when moving them, or tag them for G7 deletion? Keeping these around serves no purpose. Fram ( talk) 11:48, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
- @
Fram: Only administrators, bots and global rollbackers can move without redirect. Rich is in none of those groups. --
Izno (
talk) 12:10, 14 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thanks, I had forgotten that that box was admin-only. Rich, Could you please tag them as G7 or is it fine by you if an admin simply deletes them as recent implausible redirects? A RfD discussion for these seems like overkill.
Fram (

Fram (

- 17 creations in 9 minutes is well, well within the capabilities of a human not using any automation other than ctrl-c/ctrl-v. Since many of these titles are similar, using ctrl-c/ctrl-v for much of it would be a natural thing to do. --
Hammersoft (

- Yes, but creating the same misspelling seventeen times in a row?
Fram (
talk) 10:26, 18 January 2016 (UTC)
- You're right, if the first one was correct, he would have performed 16 correct ctrl-c/ctrl-v actions, however, if he would have typed the first wrong because he thought that spelling was correct, he would probably have typed the same typo 16 times. --
Dirk Beetstra

- The ctrl-c / ctrl-v argument was surely about the body of the pages, not about the title though? In any case, all rather academic, pages are deleted, right ones created (by Rich), and all discussion done here, on his user talk page.
Fram (

- Ctrl-c/ctrl-v can be done with titles just as well as with bodies. I see no reason to believe this was not done manually. -- Hammersoft ( talk) 21:07, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Hey, Rich, since you were involved in this discussion last December, and the editor involved seems to me to be renewing the exact same editing behavior discussed there, could you take a look at current discussion on the article's Talk page and its recent edit history and see if you think further action is needed? Thanks ... General Ization Talk 00:34, 26 January 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia:London Gazette Index update request
Hi, I'm a user from Wikipedia in Italian language. I casually discovered some minutes ago that all the links in Wikipedia:London Gazette Index (created by you 5 years ago) needs to be updated. For example, the current link to the 5 November 1688 issue (http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/issues/2396/pages/1) now redirects to the home page of The Gazette website (https://www.thegazette.co.uk/), but fixing like this (http://www.thegazette.co.uk/London/issue/2396/page/1) it can be easily restored. In brief: http://www.london-gazette.co.uk/ must be replaced with http://www.gazette.co.uk/London/ and the final 's' of words like "issues", "pages", "supplements" (and so on) must be removed from the old URL addresses. Good luck! -- Mess ( talk) 23:00, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you I will see if this can be corrected. All the best:
Rich
