Help on article creation and merging

I was expanding a bunch of stub level articles when I came across this group of lakes: Chambers Lake (New York), Woodhull Lake (New York), First Lake (Bisby Lakes, New York), Second Lake (Bisby Lakes, New York), and Third Lake (Bisby Lakes, New York). I think it would be best if these articles would be combined into a greater "Bisby Lakes" article. I'm kind of lost on this though. I know how to create the article, but not sure how to properly merge the original articles into the new article. I've started to create a draft Draft:Bisby Lakes if that helps. Thanks in advance!

You should read WP:PROMERGE, which provides enough help. I've done merging before, but usually in my userspace. -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 13:11, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
Otherwise, did the article look fine? NomzEditingWikis (talk) 15:03, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
@NomzEditingWikis it looks fine to me. -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 15:04, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Hermes(Marvel Comics)

Hello Wesoree. Caduceus has no powers in mythology and even in Marvel. No one has ever said that the caduceus controls beings or turns objects to gold. Also since he is a psychopomp he does not need his staff to conduct ghosts/spirits. 5.203.209.215 (talk) 13:02, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Ok but include it in the edit summary, to avoid friendly fire. -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 13:03, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Trouted

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

You have been trouted for: asking to be trouted. I mean, who doesn't want to be whacked with a wet trout? [sarcasm] Please pass this trout on to vandals who you think are deserving of a trout. Anyways, keep it up! The Troutinator (talk) 05:07, 28 May 2023 (UTC)

You are invited

@Wesoree: You are invited to watch my userpage and talk page. I just had a stupid vandal sockpuppet attack me and also this idiot tried to impersonate me. This was just rude. Know I now how you feel when your page gets attacked, this was my first. Catfurball (talk) 21:42, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

 Done. Your talk page is being watched, besides, don't fear for my rollback will be sure to revert it. I had my talk page be hit by socks before, plenty, and don't forget about the vandal that spammed on my talk page, I smashed them with the almighty whale. -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 22:24, 1 June 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – June 2023

News and updates for administrators from the past month (May 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, editors indefinitely site-banned by community consensus will now have all rights, including sysop, removed.
  • As a part of the Wikimedia Foundation's IP Masking project, a new policy has been created that governs the access to temporary account IP addresses. An associated FAQ has been created and individual communities can increase the requirements to view temporary account IP addresses.

Technical news

  • Bot operators and tool maintainers should schedule time in the coming months to test and update their tools for the effects of IP masking. IP masking will not be deployed to any content wiki until at least October 2023 and is unlikely to be deployed to the English Wikipedia until some time in 2024.

Arbitration

  • The arbitration case World War II and the history of Jews in Poland has been closed. The topic area of Polish history during World War II (1933-1945) and the history of Jews in Poland is subject to a "reliable source consensus-required" contentious topic restriction.

R211

I like what you did for the picture I did of the R211. I hope it’s spread over for years to come. Cheers A.R.M. 02:41, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks @ARMcgrath, the picture is used in the infobox, but for the R211T, I was searching through commons before finding one. I appreciate it! -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 12:41, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
@Wesoree: it’s a pleasure. I’m aware some of the train pics I took ended up on some newspapers like [1] this one. The R211 is better tho.

Assistance with Reverting Changes

User 173.216.158.154 has removed content from Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field without adequately explaining why. Is it possible to have their changes reverted? They've been warned previously of making similar changes. Getawaypaul27 (talk) 14:47, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

@Getawaypaul27, their edits are about a month old, so they're inactive. Their edits might've already been reverted already so there is nothing to do there. Additionally, they are already reverted, and there's a range of IPs there so the IP reassigns itself in a week anyway. Nothing I can see here. -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 14:50, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
Sorry, just now seeing this. FWIW, their edits have not been reverted. I'm happy to help with that if you're able to provide some guidance. I appreciate your help. Getawaypaul27 (talk) 00:18, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
@Getawaypaul27 I've mass rollbacked their changes as it contains WP:OR after looking at it again. Let me know if anything else needs help. Thanks! -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 02:44, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
Does that rollback take a while to propagate? I'm still seeing their edits on Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field. Specifically, they removed content from "Top paid attendance figures at Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field" and "LSU Record at Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field". Getawaypaul27 (talk) 15:11, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
I've restored a good version on Alex Box Stadium, Skip Bertman Field @Getawaypaul27. Rollback only works if the version is the latest version. let me know if I missed a spot. Thanks again! -- Wesoree (talk·contribs) 23:13, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
Thanks! I see a few minor issues, but I should be able to correct those manually. I appreciate your help with this. Getawaypaul27 (talk) 15:29, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023

Hello Wesoree,

New Page Review queue April to June 2023

Backlog

Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.

Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of Sam, Jason and Susana, and also some patches from Jon, has been hard at work updating PageTriage. They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in beta test where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of Special:NewPagesFeed, to help find bugs. We will post more details at WT:NPPR when we are ready for beta testers.

Articles for Creation (AFC): All new page reviewers are now automatically approved for Articles for Creation draft reviewing (you do not need to apply at WT:AFCP like was required previously). To install the AFC helper script, visit Special:Preferences, visit the Gadgets tab, tick "Yet Another AFC Helper Script", then click "Save". To find drafts to review, visit Special:NewPagesFeed, and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script.

You can review the AFC workflow at WP:AFCR. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that draftspace is optional, so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.

Pro tip: Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own SNG? The most common part of this "creative professionals" criteria that applies to artists is WP:ARTIST 4b (solo exhibition, not group exhibition, at a major museum) or 4d (being represented within the permanent collections of two museums).

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

Yes, this is actually a real trout, since you probably didn't mean to do it but you swapped around uninhabitable and inhabitable in Phaeton. And no, it's not like 24 days ago, when I was trying to see anyone who I could trout. As the Lego man says, "WHOOPS!" The Troutinator 🐟 - Slap me | What I've slapped 11:24, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Academia Mexicana de Genealogía y Heráldica

Please do NOT simply roll back edits because--well, why did you? The IP explained what was going on, and yet you used rollback, which is governed by the rules outlined here, WP:ROLLBACKUSE. I don't know yet if you warned the IP for vandalism, but if you did I am going to remove that warning and thank them for keeping Wikipedia free from, in this case, a list of names of members of an organization, which is not encyclopedic content (besides unverified and thus also a possible BLP violation). Thank you. Drmies (talk) 20:06, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – September 2023

News and updates for administrators from the past month (August 2023).

Guideline and policy news

  • Following an RfC, TFAs will be automatically semi-protected the day before it is on the main page and through the day after.
  • A discussion at WP:VPP about revision deletion and oversight for dead names found that [s]ysops can choose to use revdel if, in their view, it's the right tool for this situation, and they need not default to oversight. But oversight could well be right where there's a particularly high risk to the person. Use your judgment.

Technical news

Arbitration

  • The SmallCat dispute case has closed. As part of the final decision, editors participating in XfD have been reminded to be careful about forming local consensus which may or may not reflect the broader community consensus. Regular closers of XfD forums were also encouraged to note when broader community discussion, or changes to policies and guidelines, would be helpful.

Miscellaneous

  • Tech tip: The "Browse history interactively" banner shown at the top of Special:Diff can be used to easily look through a history, assemble composite diffs, or find out what archive something wound up in.
