WIND (AM)

WIND (560 kHz) is a commercial AM radio station licensed to Chicago, Illinois, and broadcasting a conservative talk radio format. It is owned by the Salem Media Group with studios on NW Point Boulevard in Elk Grove Village.

WIND transmits with 5,000 watts, using a directional antenna with a four-tower array, in Griffith, Indiana, near the Little Calumet River. Due to its location near the bottom of the AM dial, transmitter power, and the surrounding region's flat land, WIND's daytime signal covers much of Northeast Illinois, Northwest Indiana and Southeastern Wisconsin. Its nighttime pattern concentrates its signal in the Chicago and Milwaukee areas.

Programming
WIND carries the Salem Radio Network line up of hosts, including Dennis Prager, Hugh Hewitt, Mike Gallagher, Sebastian Gorka, Jay Sekulow and Charlie Kirk. From Premiere Networks, WIND also carries The Sean Hannity Show. WIND airs two local shows on weekdays, Chicago's Morning Answer with Amy Jacobson and Dan Proft, and Shaun Thompson in afternoons. Most hours begin with an update from Townhall News.

Much of the weekend is devoted to specialty talk shows on money, health and real estate, some of which is paid brokered programming. WIND is the flagship station for Carl Amari and Lisa Wolf's nationally syndicated nostalgia & showbiz program "Hollywood 360" which airs Saturday evenings. "Beyond The Beltway" with Bruce DuMont is also heard on Sunday evenings. Northern Illinois Huskies football games air in the fall.

Early history
The station began broadcasting on August 16, 1927, holding the call sign WJKS, and was originally licensed to Gary, Indiana. It initially operated at 1290 kHz, and shared time with WSBC. Its studio and transmitter were located in the Gay Mill Ballroom, in Gary's Miller Beach neighborhood. The station was owned by the ballroom's owners, Thomas Johnson and Frances Kennedy. In 1928, its frequency was changed to 1360 kHz, where it shared time with WGES. Ralph Atlass purchased a 50% stake in the station in 1931. In 1932, WJKS's studios were moved to the Gary State Bank Building.

The station moved to its present 560 kHz frequency in 1933, after Chicago stations WIBO and WPCC, which had been operating at 560 kHz, were shut down. The station began full-time operations, and ran 1,000 watts. Its call sign was changed to WIND the same year. In 1934, the station's daytime power was increased to 2,500 watts and in 1935 its daytime power was increased to 5,000 watts. Its nighttime power was increased to 5,000 watts in 1941.

From the 1930s until 1985, WIND played "The Whiffenpoof Song" every night at 2 a.m.

In the fall of 1937, the station was one of several Chicago radio stations to donate airtime to Chicago Public Schools for a pioneering program in which the school district provided elementary school students with distance education amid a polio outbreak-related school closure.

In 1944, WIND's studios were moved to Chicago's Carbide & Carbon Building, and in 1947 its studios were moved to the South tower of the Wrigley Building.

In 1946, Ralph Atlass sold his stake in WIND to newspaper publisher John S. Knight for $800,000. Atlass remained station manager of WIND.

Popular music era
Eddie Hubbard began hosting a popular music program called the ABC Club in 1945. By the late 1940s, much of the station's schedule was devoted to contemporary music. WIND was Chicago's leading hit music station in the 1950s.

Howard Miller was WIND's program director from 1945 to 1949. In 1950, Miller started a longtime run as Chicago's top rated morning DJ. Miller would remain Chicago's top rated radio personality until leaving the station in 1968. Other WIND personalities during its music years included Jim Lounsbury, Linn Burton, Jay Trompeter, Bernie Allen, Lee Rogers, Dick Williamson, Perry Marshall, Bruce Lee, Kassidy, Joel Sebastian, Robert W. Morgan, Chuck Benson and Kurt Russell, Ron Britain, Bob Del Giorno, and Connie Szerszen.

From 1945 to 1957, WIND held the exclusive local rights to broadcast Chicago Cubs baseball. Sportscasters on WIND during this period included Bert Wilson, Milo Hamilton, and Jack Quinlan.

In 1956, the station was sold to Westinghouse Broadcasting for $5.3 million, which at the time was a record amount for a radio station. At the time of the purchase, WIND had no news department, though the station subscribed to wire services. Westinghouse established a news department at the station, and it aired 5 minute newscasts every hour. Earl Finckle was the station's meteorologist for a period.

In the 1960s, WIND shifted to a middle of the road, pop contemporary/pop standards format. In 1967, the station began adding some harder tracks to its playlist. Phil Nolan became general manager of WIND in 1969.

In 1971, WIND evolved into an oldies-heavy adult contemporary format, playing hits from 1955 to present day. In addition to the music played on the station, WIND aired Contact, a nighttime talk show hosted by Dave Baum. Larry "The Legend" Johnson hosted overnights. Ed Schwartz served as a substitute host for Johnson, before replacing him as overnight host in 1973. Schwartz had previously held several behind-the-scenes positions at WIND. Schwartz continued as overnight host on WIND until 1981, when he moved to 720 WGN.

In 1973, WIND won the George Foster Peabody Award for their series "From 18th Street: Destination Peking".

First talk era
In September 1978, WIND switched to a news/talk format. Local personalities included Clark Weber, Eddie Schwartz, Dave Baum, Steve King, and Jimmy Piersall. Syndicated personalities heard on WIND included British-American talk show host Michael Jackson and Dr. Toni Grant. The Larry King Show was heard overnight.

Spanish era
In 1985, Westinghouse announced that they would sell WIND to Tichenor Radio for $6.85 million. On December 12, 1985, at 1:03 p.m., on the same day of the closing of the sale to Tichenor, WIND officially signed off the air by playing "The Whiffenpoof Song" and "The Star-Spangled Banner". Soon thereafter, WIND signed back on the air, with a Spanish language format. The station aired Mexican mariachi and ranchera music and was branded "La Tremenda". By the late 1990s, the station was airing a Spanish talk/romantica format. In 1997, Tichenor Media merged with Heftel Broadcasting to form the Hispanic Broadcasting Corporation, which merged with Univision Communications in 2004. In October 2003, the station's talk programming moved to AM 1200 WRTO, and it began airing a Spanish adult contemporary format.

Second talk era
In 2004, Univision Radio announced a multi-station swap with Salem Communications. This resulted in Salem acquiring WIND, while Univision Radio received 106.7 WZFS (now WPPN).

On November 1, 2004, WIND once again became an English-language talk station. Its original line-up included Bill Bennett, Laura Ingraham, Dennis Prager, Michael Medved, Michael Savage, Hugh Hewitt, and Mike Gallagher.

In July 2005, WIND entered into an agreement with the University of Illinois to carry Fighting Illini football and men's basketball games, as well as the coaches shows, through the Illini Sports Radio Network. Those broadcasts continued through the 2013 football season, with the Illini moving back to their longtime Chicago affiliate, WSCR. WIND was formerly the alternate station of the Chicago Blackhawks and the Northwestern Wildcats in the case of scheduling conflicts at their flagship, WGN.

On January 21, 2013, WIND rebranded as AM 560 The Answer, to follow suit with other Salem Communications-owned stations.

In 2014, WIND became the Chicago radio home for Northern Illinois Huskies football.

Talk:Blinking

Comments
Fascinating and insightufl, this article is everything the Wikipedia should aspire to be. --Squirminator2k 14:29, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

JMVS reference?
The Journal of Modern Vision Science appears to be a small, new, non-peer-reviewed publication. This should be noted or possibly the link should be removed? 64.140.82.50 15:21, 8 March 2006 (UTC)Greg Shubert

sexual orientation
Removed:
 * However, there is an established gender difference in inhibition of the startle response blink: men (and lesbian women) manifest greater inhibition of the reflex than heterosexual women (Q. Rahman et al., 2003, Behavioral Neuroscience).

Wikipedia cannot repeat each and every statement published by a researcher. The claim of Rahman is contested by other scientists, see e.g., [here] the statistics is questioned. Here is stated that Rahman in his small study of 15 + 15 persons  didn't take into an account of other factors known to significantly influence blinking, e.g., smoking habits.

In any case, one cannot convert encyclopedia into scientific debate. A single journal article is insufficent for verifiability. `'mikka (t) 23:08, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Animation
Use this image if you like. Silversmith Hewwo 09:58, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * I find the animation distracting, I think if an "animation" is going to be used then it should not be slowed down. It completely defeats the purpose of using the gif.

Spell
Well it may sound odd but there is a spell called Blink that more or less teleports the caster a small distence in a random directon. I don't know if Wikipedia should have it, but I feel that it should. The spell can be seen in games such as Warcraft III, D&D and others.Nefzen 21:22, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

Children and Yogis
Hey guys, wikipedia's policy is 'be bold in editing articles' so I added a few intriguing sections. If anyone does not believe in the veracity of what I have written he has but to observe children himself. I didn't believe it for a long while myself and I was supprised it wasn't in any psych textbook I had read, but I saw it over and over, in at least 15 children. If anyone wants proof that these gurus do not blink or blink much less than normal s/he has but to look up videos of them on google or through any other source. Note that as Sri Chinmoy does not have blinklessness when he is engaged in normal daily events, but he when he does public open eye meditation, such as he did for the United Nations; however as far as I can tell Yogananda and Osho do have a waking state of highly suppressed blinking/startle reflex. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David (talk • contribs)

Drugs
It is also possible that various drugs inhibit blink response. This i'm not sure of to put on the main page as of yet but it would be excellent to see an analysis of narcotics and which effect autonomic response such as the blink or sneeze. Particularly I believe marajuana has a significant effect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David (talk • contribs)

Trataka
Trataka, is a Hindu spiritualist pratice which involves controlling of the visual blink phenomena. Like in other portions of yoga a goal of the pratice is to control the autonomic system of the body. In pranayama, it's control of breathing, in trataka often control of blink. This is probably too 'religious' of a comment to put on the main page even though it's simply a pratice. If someone finds a good neutral wording for it go ahead and add some information. Or perhaps just a link. —Preceding unsigned comment added by David (talk • contribs)

Thanks for the image Silversmith--it looks great in the article! Baleyp 04:50, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Baleyp

Needing Info
There are no links available for the muscles within the eyelid. If anyone was interested in creating an article for these muscles it would be a great opportunity and would really help this article! Just a suggestion to anyone looking for some article ideas. I think that your idea for a drug analysis sounds interesting david. Baleyp 04:53, 22 February 2007 (UTC)Baleyp

possible error?
hey, im shure this was a good faith mistake, but im fiarly shure that Parkinson's Disease does not present with increased rate of blinking, but rather reduced - Parkinson's sufferers have a serpentine like stare about them, with facial akinesia. (Kumar and Clark, 2005, London) It is most distinctive. Ill edit the page, but if I have made a mistake, please feel free to correct it, and i apologise.

Brain Pauses
I have a book called "Can Cows Walk Down Stairs?", edited by Paul Heiney (2005, ISBN 0-7503-3747-5) which is a compendium of answers to questions. I shall recite here verbatim:

"Q: Why do we blink?

A: There is more to blinking than meets the eye. Clearly, we have to blink to cleanse and moisten the eye: each time the eyelids close, salty secretions from the tear glands are swept over the surface of the eye, flushing away small dust particles and lubricating the exposed portion of the eyeball. Normally we blink every four to six seconds, but in irritating conditions such as a smoke-filled room we blink more frequently to keep the eyes clean and moist.

However, we blink more often than we need to, if blinking were just about keeping the corneas of our eyes moist and clear. Infants only blink once every minute or so, but adults blink an average of ten to fifteen times a minute. Scientists now think this is all to do with the gathering of information, because experiments have shown that we blink less when information is coming at us thick and fast, and we blink more often when we are not taking much in. Blinks are like punctuation marks of the mind, signaling a pause in the activity in your head. If we are reading interesting material, we blink an average of three to eight times per minute, as opposed to fifteen times a minute when we are not engaged in attention-demanding activity. We are also most likely to blink as our eyes shift from one page of text to the next, or from the end of a line of text to the beginning of the next line. Any single blink isn't always like the next. Scientists have shown that frequency and duration vary under different conditions. RAF pilots flying simulators over 'friendly' territory have been shown to blink more frequently and to keep their eyelids closed for longer than when flying over 'enemy' territory. Pilots blink the least when they have been spotted by enemy radar and are attempting to find and evade missiles, or when landing and aircraft."

Is there any evidence of this on the net or other books? Thisnamestaken (talk) 21:51, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

Loud Noise and Blinking Purpose
Most of our instinctive reactions have a purpose to defend us from would-be dangers, like suddenly raising your hands up and moving away from your current position when someone surprises and frightens you, and so on... But why do we blink when we hear a loud noise? I mean, it really has absolutely no benefit...it not only doesn't help you but blocks your vision for a time and delays your reaction.

Does anybody know anything about this? Bojan

Voluntary or semi-voluntary
The article says that blinking is a voluntary act. But I think it's more correct to say that it is a semi-voluntary act... like breathing, for example, because we don't "remember" every time that we have to blink, but it is an automatic action, that we can control if we want. Isn't this right?--Sid-Vicious (talk) 22:40, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Duration of blinks
I may be mistaken, but truly reflex blinks last less than 100ms (50 to 80 on average). It may be that "forced" or controled blinks last longer (even then, 400ms sounds improbable), but they are probably not explained bythe same processes. Blink duration is a very important question, as it is often used as a measure of attention and sleepiness. This requires clarification. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.59.147.183 (talk) 15:13, 20 September 2010 (UTC) I agree, 300m to 400m seconds is much too long. Paulxl — Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.196.59.243 (talk) 16:32, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Cited References
The #2 cited reference isn't useful since it's an opinion-survey with leading questions with incorrectly fixed answers. The "correct" answers are obviously altered to match the expected results, not the actual results of the survey. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mduvigneaud (talk • contribs) 06:43, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

Cultural blinking
If anyone is able to add to this by talking about when people blink to convey info such as passive aggression that'd be good Farleigheditor (talk) 16:48, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

Gender
The article mentions differences between males and females but calls them genders. I'd like to avoid the argument whether there exists biologically meaningful categories to describe homo sapiens sapiens sexual characteristics. (My opinion is there are, but they are aren't only of two categories; there're many exceptions). I checked the abstracts of the two cited articles on gender differences. First, they're primary research - I question them as authoritative. They also are small studies of demographically biased samples. The real issue is that both do NOT use the terms "male" and "female" unlike this article. Both use the terms "men" and "women" - which in my opinion (and, I believe, the current (WEIRD) public majority's opinion) are gender categories (not sex). I am going to change the terms used here from male and female to the correct (politically correct, also) men's and women's. I highly doubt the researchers checked the subjects DNA, hormones, or genitals to determine their sexes, making the studies of two adult gender groups: men and women.40.142.183.146 (talk) 22:24, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

Elgoibar

Elgoibar (Elgóibar) is an industrial town located in the province of Gipuzkoa, in the Autonomous Community of the Basque Country, northern Spain. Located in a valley, it is traversed by the Deba river. Elgoibar is nicknamed the "capital city of the Machine tool".

Originally the town was called Villamayor de Marquina, but it had been founded in a place called before Elgoibar field. The town came to be known by this name a few centuries of its foundation. Until the mid-15th century it appears in the documentation as Villamayor de Marquina, but in the statutes of the Brotherhood of Gipuzkoa of 1457 and 1463 years appears with the Elgoibar name and it has prevailed until today. Elgoibar name has been used in Spanish and in Basque in order to refer to the small town. The only difference is that in Spanish the name Elgoibar has an accent mark above its "o".

Elgoibar etymologically comes from the Basque language and is possibly composed of the word elge (meaning "field", usually cultivated), and iba - a word which means "valley" or "plain". Therefore, "elge ibar" would be a similar term to "vega" or "a cultivated field". This etymology would fit quite well with the mention of Elgoibar field that appears in the settlement charter of the town.

Economy
Since the very beginning of the establishment of the town, its industrial nature was very relevant. The king kept for himself the strip mining of the minerals such as gold or silver, and the ironworks production. As Tomás López described in 1800 "The industrialization transformed that protoindustry, on a machinery tools factories network; like this is how this village turned into being the "capital city of the Machine Tool".

Main companies

The following list includes companies that are located in Elgoibar, and that have at least an staff of 50 people according to the Basque Industry catalog:
 * Alcorta Brockhaus, S.A.: Manufacturer of components of forged steel for the automotive industry.
 * AVS Added Value Solutions: Designing and manufacturing equipment for the industry of science and machine tool industry.
 * Bernardo Ecenarro, S.A.: Manufacturing paints and special covers for the automotive industry
 * Doimak: Manufacturing rectifier machines
 * Engranajes Grindel, S.A.: Manufacturer of gears.
 * Etxe-Tar, S.A.: Machine Tool Industry

Local Festivities

Elgoibar celebrates festivity in honor of its patron; San Bartolome and San Anton. The latter is the patron of the villa. In addition, there are a number of celebrations that are celebrated in unison of the region or the country such as San Blas, Carnivals or the Eve of St. Agatha. There is cattle fair the last Saturday of each month and specially the last Saturday of the year, Gabon Zahar Feria.

 * San Anton festivity, second landlord of the town, on 17 January.
 * San Bartolome, the patron of Elgoibar, on 23 August.
 * San Juan festivity, on 23 June.

Then, there are smaller celebrations in the rural districts and the hermitages like the pilgrimage of Santiago Sargoate day.

Ixtepec, Oaxaca

Ixtepec (formally: Ciudad Ixtepec; previously known as Villa de San Jerónimo Doctor) is a small city, and municipality of the same name, located in the state of Oaxaca, in southern Mexico. It is part of the Juchitán District in the west of the Istmo de Tehuantepec region.

History
The name "Ixtepec" is derived from Nahuatl and roughly translates to either "view of the mountain" or "face of the mountain."Its name was Iztepeque until 1935, when it was officially changed to Ciudad Ixtepec. The founding of the city was most likely in the 16th century as a Zapotec settlement shortly before the Spanish Conquest. It remained an indigenous community until the 19th century, with its economy based on subsistence farming. In the early 20th century, the community grew in economic importance as its location made it attractive to foreign investment with the building of the Pan-American Highway, originally as a rail line.

Geography
The municipality has an area of 294.1 km2 at an average elevation of 40 meters above sea level. The climate is warm, with rainfall of 950 mm annually mostly falling in the summer. Average temperature is 27.4 °C, ranging from 21.5 °C to 30.7 °C.

Communities
As municipal seat, Ciudad Ixtepec has governing authority over the following communities:
 * Cheguigo Juárez
 * Quinta Sección
 * Chivaguí
 * Colonia Alejandro Cruz Martínez

Economy
As of 2005, there were 6,481 households with a population of 24,181, of whom 4,667 spoke an indigenous language. Like Ixtaltepec, Juchitán and Tehuantepec, Ixtepec has a significant native Zapotec population. Many indigenous traditions are still followed.

Ixtepec used to be an important railway center point, but nowadays no passenger train traffic runs through. However, a university has recently been constructed there. Economic activities include very limited agriculture on 972 hectares of irrigated land growing corn, sorghum, sesame and vegetables, 408 small farms raising cattle, pigs or goats, fish hatcheries for crappie, tilapia and red snapper, manufacture of bricks, school uniforms and home furnishings, and mining of black clay for making pots and figurines and adobe bricks.

Talk:List of crossings of the River Thames

Central vs West
Chelsea Bridge and Grosvenor Bridge are next to each other. Why is one central and the other not? --88.110.189.21 15:56, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Crossings at Locks
Some locks have public access footbridges that cross the entire river, most have only a footbridge that crosses the locks. If the rest of the river has a weir any footway the weir carries is usually "authorised persons only" and padlocked. At some locks even an "authorised person" has no way across since there is a further section of river beyond the weir, eg Shepperton lock.

So any implication that any lock is a possible "crossing of the River Thames" is not correct and any definition including such is not a helpful one.

(MichaelRD 18:33, 14 September 2007 (UTC))

A private crossing is still a crossing. The article is not called public crossings of the River Thames. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.66.152.206 (talk) 16:22, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Upstream/downstream
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the article states "downstream first" in the lead, but isn't the order of crossings as upstream first? Craigy (talk) 13:33, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I read it as meaning that the list starts with the most downstream crossing and works up but I admit it is a little ambiguous. nancy  (talk) 14:33, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, I didn't see it like that. But yes, it is a little confusing at the moment. I tempted changing it to "most downstream", but it sounds awful. I propose "heading upstream" or something along those lines... Craigy (talk) 00:33, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
 * The correct "technical" wording is probably lowest first or lowest to highest but again that could be misinterpreted as being to do with the physical height of the structure so your proposed so your proposed heading upstream gets my vote. Who would have thought it could be this complicated to convey a simple concept? nancy  (talk) 07:19, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

East London
Another proposed bridge, the Sustrans Thames Pedestrian and Cycle Bridge has not yet had its (proposed) position finalized, although it seems it would certainly be between the Greenwich foot tunnel and the Rotherhithe Tunnel. Worth keeping an eye on. Open4D (talk) 21:14, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

tabulate, add coordinates and microformats
Would anyone be interested in converting this article to use a table, with grid references, coordinates and hCard microformats, like the table at List of crossings of the River Severn? Andy Mabbett (User:Pigsonthewing); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 20:17, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Personally, I like it as it is - without a clutter of coords and with selective pics alongside. Motmit (talk) 20:26, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Stop Removing Private Crossings!
There seems to be a history of people removing non-publically accessable crossings. There is no justification for this. This is not a list of public crossings of the River Thames - it is a list of ALL crossings of the river thames. The Thames Tunnel used by the former East London Line is not currently accessable by the public so should that be removed also? No! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.66.152.206 (talk) 16:28, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

Former subdivisions
I've removed the list of former subdivisions that was added for the following reasons:
 * 1) The list is incomplete; the entire river from right through London is affected
 * 2) The list has no dates which implies the changes all happened at the same time, which they did not; "ex" glosses over this
 * 3) If such information were to be added to a table it should be done through footnotes
 * 4) It is excessive detail for this table, which is intended to show a list of crossings of the river, not a history of boundary changes

That said, a summary sentence at the beginning of the article such as "The River is currently the boundary between x, y, z and was the ancient boundary between a, b c" would probably satisfy this. I'll have a go at writing that. MRSC (talk) 06:05, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I am not sure why you have taken it upon yourself to be an arbiter of what should or shouldnt be in one of the key Wikiproject Thames articles. Your earlier half-baked intervention of converting half the list into tables has left the the article looking a confusing mess and it has also extended the length of the article making it less accessible. (though I admit to adding a few pics to fill the resulting white space) When you plugged in the existing counties this had the effect of highlighting a potential confusion since these changes were only made about forty years ago and many of the bridges go back centuries. I tried to help the reader by showing where they used to belong. Conscious of the need to avoid "excessive detail" I deliberately excluded Greater London where the issue is not of such concern and used a simple expression ("ex") which is sufficient to make the point. But on the one hand you consider that is excessive detail, and on the other hand incomplete and glossed over!! I am afraid your attempt to add an introductory sentence was fairly unsatisfactory - the river separates rather than connects Essex and Kent for example. Fortunately the appropriate explanation already existed in the River Thames aricle. Motmit (talk) 23:06, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

 * Well done for finding that text! MRSC (talk) 03:03, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

Restored sanity (I hope) to format
As an early contributor to this article, I was considerably distressed by the mess I found it in when I looked at it just now. Half the length of the river was tabulated, and half was the original listing. I have no problem with tabulation in principal, although to be truthful I think it looked better as a list. However if the editor who had decided to turn it into a tabulation had managed to finish the work, I would have left well alone.

But it is clearly insupportable to have an article in this state for three months with no clear prospect of it being sorted out. So I have taken the drastic step of reverting the article back to the state it was in before the tabulation started. I apologise to all the other editors whose work I have reverted in the process, but I couldn't see any other way of dealing with this. I will go through all the changes, and try and reintroduce them as appropriate. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 17:49, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Hi - See my above comments complaining of the mess - have been meaning to sort it out but it will be a big job. I started by creating a category of riparian boroughs to help do this but the editor responsible for the mess referred it to the IBBs in the CFD process so it is no longer what it was intended to be. Anyway I have restored the intro text that was introduced because the same editor had a problem with noting the counties that the bridges were in for several hundred years. Hey ho Motmit (talk) 17:58, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

 * Thanks to Motmit and Station1 for assisting in getting things back straight again. I think all the other changes that can be accommodated are now done. Unfortunately there were some that were made by other editors to the tabular format, that I cannot really see a way to incorporate in the list. -- chris_j_wood (talk) 18:05, 30 March 2010 (UTC)

Hatnote
I see that the following hatnote has been added and removed a couple of times today:

Given that List of Bridges in London redirects here, i.e. this is the only article about bridges in London, I believe the hatnote is appropriate. It would also avoid a disambiguation page with just two entries as London bridges is now. — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:16, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
 * Too many people assume the Thames is only 22 miles long and the hatnote was a bit odd for a list of around 200 crossings of the Thames rather than the score or so of Thames bridges in London. Moreover London bridges include Lea Bridge, Stamford Bridge Holborn Viaduct etc etc etc so the redirect is inappropriate anyway. Motmit (talk) 20:32, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
 * I have made List of bridges in London into an article instead of a redirect and restored to it the tabular texts for the London crossings that were in here - so our four-letter editors can MUCK and MESS about with that. Motmit (talk) 15:23, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Cable crossings?
Am I alone in finding it strange that the list includes certain cable crossings? There might be justification if the list included bridge heights, but it doesn't. I would also exclude cable tunnels, which come into the same category as (non-public) weir crossings that aren't included. I see no problem with including tunnels which don't currently have any public use - they may return, as with the Thames Tunnel - but let's not include proposed crossings, the list is too volatile. Chris55 (talk) 15:07, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It is odd, but not worth getting worked up about. There are quite a few anomolies but it is probably more helpful to have an open and inclusive list rather than to try to pin it down more tightly so we end up with a very longwinded title and several crossings with no where to go. Motmit (talk) 17:43, 10 June 2010 (UTC)
 * It would make sense if it included all of them, but it clearly doesn't. I'm sure I've been under others going up or down the Thames though I don't have enough OS large scale maps to prove it at the moment. There is an implicit "human" element to the crossings in the title, surely? If not, why don't we include all the weirs and partial crossings that are an impediment to boats. Chris55 (talk) 21:15, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Indeed. This article should be about human crossings only. If not, where do you draw the line? I saw a goose flying over the river once - that's a type of crossing then. Bazonka (talk) 09:35, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Lock crossings
Every lock on the navigable river has a weir across the main stream. There is a full river crossing at a lock only when the weir has a walkway across it that is deemed safe enough for public access. Examples of these can be seen in the pictures at Hambledon Lock, Benson Lock and Abingdon Lock. Most weir walkways are closed to public access and some weirs have no walkway at all. Crossing at the lock itself is usually across the lock gates, although I can think of Boulter's Lock and Romney Lock which have separate footbridges (but no weir access). So a crossing at a lock should be described as via the weir walkway rather a bridge. Regards Motmit (talk) 21:16, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
 * This article mentions other crossings which are not open to the public, e.g. Thames Barrier. I think that there should be consistency, with either all possible crossings being mentioned (whether public or not), or just the public ones. Bazonka (talk) 21:51, 24 April 2012 (UTC)
 * The list is almost entirely of public crossings which is the most useful information for the reader. I dont have a problem with including a few conspicuous crossings that don't have public access provided there is a note to that effect. On the other hand I don't hold any brief for utility crossings. There are a huge number of crossings technically and to avoid creating an enormous list most of which would add very little value, the approach has been to acknowledge such possible crossings in the "Note on the listing". This takes care of service crossings of weirs and clipper services which cross the river at multiple places for example. This is just one of the "Where do you draw the line" issues and the current list with explanatory notes seemz to have satisfied the readership for several years now. Regards Motmit (talk) 23:04, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

Ashton Keynes
The course of the Thames splits into different channels through Ashton Keynes. It is unclear which is the main channel, if indeed there is one. Large scale OS maps seem to indicate that the main channel heads north between Waterhay Bridge and High Bridge, and runs alongside the High Road to the north of the village. The channel that continues under High Bridge and Three Bridges becomes the Swill Brook, but it does connect to the Thames via another channel which joins it at Pike Corner. There are other channels that are making me even more confused. See So are we correct to state that High Bridge and Three Bridges are Thames crossings? Or are all the bridges along the High Road (not currently mentioned in the article) Thames crossings - instead or also? Bazonka (talk) 18:48, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
 * This is a problem that occurs elsewhere where the river splits particularly where the main channel has changed - for example in Oxford with Castle Mill stream and near Abingdon with Swift Ditch (which has Old Culham Bridge and a modern by-pass across it). At Sonning the backwater is close enough to treat it as one crossing. Again, it probably needs to be explained in a note. Regards Motmit (talk) 22:05, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
 * The Environment Agency's Sealed Main River dataset (which I have access to through work) names both the channel running alongside High Road and the channel further west as Thames (Upper). The section running under High Bridge and Three Bridges, however, is named as Swill Brook.
 * Their Detailed River Network dataset (which is due to replace the Sealed Main Rivers as the legal definition) does not give a name to the western channel - it just shows the Thames as running alongside High Road. I therefore think that we should remove High Bridge and Three Bridges from the list, and replace them with the bridges in the middle of the village. Probably worth retaining as a footnote though. Bazonka (talk) 07:27, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I have made this change. Unfortunately the EA dataset is not really sourcable. Bazonka (talk) 14:01, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Radcot Bridge - 1737?
Radcot Bridge is listed as opening in 1787, yet the article for Radcot bridge states that it was last "largly" rebuilt just after the Wars of the Roses which ended in 1485. Why is it listed as opening nearly 300 years later?

Bakerloo line
Somehow, during the great tablification a couple of years ago, the Bakerloo line got out of sequence. It is in fact upstream/South of the Hungerford bridges, as seen in this plan drawing. It is also shown this way on Open Street Map, running from Northumberland Avenue to the northern edge of Jubilee Gardens. Google Maps shows something similar. I blame Harry Beck for the error, as it's always been shown the other way on the diagrammatic Tube Map. I've put it back where it belongs. --rbrwr± 10:58, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Fords ?
The opening paragraph lists one ford, but I can find no mention of it in the rest of the page. Since this page is already more than just a list, but includes some history I would expect to see a reference to fords in the past, perhaps why they are not relevent today or their replacement by bridges.

Bare url inline refs
There are several bare url refs in the tables that ought to be formatted, with a title and a date added to the url. One url is “access forbidden”, others are dead and cannot be marked as such or replaced with a live link. I tried to do this task, but I could not get at the bare url refs in the table itself.

Pilgrim Ferry
There used be crossing between Erith and Rainham (Essex) by ferry. There is a plaque that marks the eight hundredth anniversary of the start of the Rainham to Erith and is one of the least known artifacts in Erith as very few locals are even aware that it that is there and was erected on the wall next to the wooden jetty adjacent to Erith Riverside Gardens back in 1999. The Pilgrim's Ferry began in the year 1199 and was used to allow people to cross the River Thames between Erith and Coldharbour Point in Rainham. There was an unsuccessful campaign back in 2010 / 2011 to try and get the ferry service restarted, as part of the "London Loop". The ferry last apparently ran on a regular daily basis back in 1854. Many years later Ford would run their own ferry until 2004 between Dagenham and Belvedere. It is a shame since the closest foot crossing is the Woolwich Foot Tunnel and the closest crossing by road is the Dartford Tunnel despite the fact the Erith pier and the Coldharbour Point Lighthouse can be seen from their sides of the River Thames. - 2A02:C7C:53C1:E00:998C:E4F2:A2FD:AE29 (talk) 08:29, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt

Animaniacs: The Great Edgar Hunt is an action-adventure video game, released in North America, Europe and Australia in 2005. It is based on the cartoon series Animaniacs from Warner Bros. and features the same voice actors for the main characters. The game is one of multiple Animaniacs video games. It was the first Animaniacs-related project to be released since the animated comedy film Wakko's Wish in 1999. It was released on the GameCube, PlayStation 2, and Xbox, with the latter two versions being released only in Europe, while the GameCube version was released in both Europe and North America.

Plot
Frustrated by being "overlooked", film director C. C. Deville steals the "Edgars" (statuettes that are a parody of the Oscars) and threatens to melt them all unless studio chairman Thaddeus Plotz gives him a lucrative contract. While carrying out his evil plot, Deville's dim-witted assistant accidentally crashes his getaway blimp into the Warner Bros. water tower. This scatters 44 of the 45 stolen Edgars across the studio lot and releases Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, who agree to search for the missing awards. The many different types of levels include: Ye Old West, Spooky Movie, Once Upon A Time, King O'Sullivan's Mines, and The Epic. The final level takes place in the sky chasing and shooting down Deville's blimp. In the end, Ralph T. Guard and Plotz end up capturing Deville and the Warners, mistaking them to also be part of Deville's plan. As the Edgars ceremony finally continues, the Warners proceed to torment Deville, who got accidentally trapped in the water tower, which got rebuilt by Pinky and the Brain for one of their latest plans to take over the world, with the Warners.

Reception
The game received "mixed or average" reviews, upon release, according to review aggregator Metacritic. GameSpot gave it 7.1 out of 10, stating that "The Great Edgar Hunt is a good, if not very original, platformer in its own right, offering up some funny writing and interesting environments to explore". According to GamingNexus, the game is "recommended to loyal fans of the series. It doesn’t bring anything fresh to the gaming table, but offers a substantial adventure that should take at least six hours to complete. The quality is uncommon for a licensed title and the show’s charm is intact for the most part. For adventure fans I suggest something meatier like Zelda; Edgar Hunt will be nothing but a passing amusement to the hardcore audience".

Speedy deletion nomination of 2024 Masters (darts)
Hello Bastun,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged 2024 Masters (darts) for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want 2024 Masters (darts) to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Speedy deletion of Leek RUFC
I see that you have requested the immediate deletion of my article about Leek RUFC.

It was widely established, and accepted, many years ago that any English rugby union club which plays, or has played, at level 5 or above is notable enough to have its own article. Leek is now playing at that level and this is why I created the article. Therefore I am not sure as to why you have asked for this article to be speedily deleted. Rillington (talk) 01:53, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi, Rillington, I replied at Talk:Leek RUFC. Cheers, Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 11:17, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

 * I have replied. I hope you will accept that my reply is respectful and sticks to facts, and that it does not revert to displays of emotion/upset which, you will understand, does exist following this speedy deletion request.

 * I also want to respectfully make two observations which I feel are better suited to your talk page. Wouldn't it have been much more positive to have spend a short period of time improving the article rather than engaging in this speedy deletion request. If you had done this then the already several hours of my time which I have spent trying to counteract your speedy deletion request would have been spent more productively elsewhere on Wikipedia. Also, with hindsite, might it have been better to have left a note outlining your concerns on my talkpage rather than going for a speedy deletion? Rillington (talk) 02:23, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi, . We help the project where we can and where we have interest. So I edit articles of interest to me, and in my own case, I decided to help out doing some 'backroom' stuff. So, for context, I joined the New pages patrol in the last couple of weeks. Checking WP's newly created pages involves following a somewhat convoluted procedure. After checking Leek RUFC against the standard 'General Notability Guidelines' (as teams don't have a specific notability one) I followed up by checking the specific guidelines for Rugby Union teams. As mentioned, Leek RUFC doesn't seem to meet those guidelines either, but if, as you say, there are already dozens of such articles, the logical thing to do would be to get that notability guideline changed on the Rugby Union project, as, as it stands, the article still doesn't appear to meet the GNG guidelines:

 * Likewise, no disrespect intended, but if you've spent several hours on the article since I tagged it, I'd expect it to be longer than two sentences and have some independent sources added. While I'm not going to nominate the article for deletion, it's quite possible somebody else will, and as it stands, it would not survive AfD. And no, I'm not a deletionist - the logs show I've tagged/patrolled 121 articles since 1st Jan, and nominated only 5 for deletion. One of those was in a foreign language, and one was about a family farm with no claim to notability or sources. Cheers, Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 12:44, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your replies, and I am glad that you haven't taken any offence to my postings. Despite our disagreement, we remained respectful and civil and we should both be proud of this. Almost all of us have the same basic goal and that is to improve Wikipedia, and I know you share this goal with me.

 * Even before you made your point about only nominating 5/121 patrolled articles for deletion, I had already concluded that you are not a deletionist, and only hinted at this because you used such a draconian tool on this occasion. Rillington (talk) 06:04, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your patience
I just wanted to say thank you for your patience and your contributions to Black Irish (folklore). As a subject, it's proving to be one of the most contentious I've ever had to engage in on Wikipedia, and I appreciate having someone knowledgable "in the room" for the conversations on the Talk page. I don't know about the immediate future, but maybe a year from now, I could envision the article becoming semi-protected or some other kind of lock if it continues to attract a certain kind of user who is overtly interested in pseudo-history/pseudo-science.

I appreciate your efforts, CeltBrowne (talk) 18:52, 1 February 2024 (UTC)

Pfft
Hi Bastun. I don't follow rugby so I know very little about it. I didn't know the sport doesn't have "friendlies", so-called.

I see at the friendly match article that rugby friendlies (as I call them, in my ignorance) are never called exhibitions or friendlies "as they always have Test match status", according to the article. I have heard of test matches in cricket but without knowing what that means, because I don't follow cricket either.

Concerning rugby, the article continues, "National teams sometimes play exhibition matches" and "preseason matches". What wasn't clear to me was what these games are called in rugby, if not friendlies, so perhaps that article could use a lick of clarification from an eggball expert like you to rehabilitate an ingenue like me.

I see you opted for "Autumn Nations Series" – I can only bow to your greater wisdom.

My knowledge of sport extends from football to throwing boomerangs and frisbees, so I'm vulnerable to the odd eyerolling "pfft" when I stray beyond my competence :) Thanks for the edit fix. Spideog (talk) 13:16, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi,, my tongue was firmly in my cheek when I wrote that edit summary, and I really hope that managed to come across! I am no rugby expert, just a fan, and about 50% of the time I have no clue why a penalty has been called at the breakdown! But essentially, yes, all international games, except warm-up matches on a tour (against, say, a club or provincial side, like when Munster beat the All Blacks, or against a "scratch" team like the Barbarians) count as "test matches" for world ranking points. Which decides things like seedings and pools for the Rugby World Cup. I'll have a look at the article you mention later. In the meantime - happy first day of Sixmas! Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 13:29, 2 February 2024 (UTC)
 * No offence taken! I saw your smileys and recognised my ignorance. Sixmas, huh? I thought it was The Day After Brigid's Day but, like rugby, I don't follow Christianity either, although I know the Old Testament contains six references to which I was told was rude ;) Spideog (talk) 13:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of NEXT GIRLZ
Hello Bastun,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged NEXT GIRLZ for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want NEXT GIRLZ to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Mailbutler page deletion
Hi Bastun, can you tell me what is the promotional part that you saw on Mailbutler's page? Can you check Mailbird Wikipedia page to compare it? Thanks Sekulov (talk) 16:08, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi Sekulov, the whole page was essentially unambigious advertising or promotion. Articles on WP must be about notable topics, that meet the General Notability Guideline, i.e., "A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." - but please read the page for a better understanding. Prior to deletion, the article essentially listed a bunch of features, and plugins that the app works with, i.e., promotional/advertising with no indication of notability or significance.

Undraftifying Draft:Incomplete_database
Hello, I see you had draftified Draft:Incomplete_database which I had moved to mainspace. Following your feedback I have gone over the article to make it clearer. I think this article is now is a good enough space for main space. If you agree, could you move it back and recreate the redirects that you had deleted? Thanks! a3nm (talk) 14:14, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi, for a draftified article, you will need to submit the page for review, per WP:AFCREVIEW. Regards, Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 15:41, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, I'm confused because I see the following in WP:DRAFTOBJECT: "If an editor raises an objection, move the page back to mainspace and, if necessary, list it at AfD." So I was thinking that, given my objection, you would undo the draftification and move back the article to mainspace. Could you do so? Thanks. a3nm (talk) 15:49, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I assumed that was a request, not an objection. That's done now. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 16:13, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

Your CSD nomination of Spice rack
Hi Bastun,

Just letting you know I removed your CSD tag on Spice rack. You had tagged it under G4, but the article previously deleted was a redirect to "spice" at the same title, not the article that is currently present. CoconutOctopus  talk  11:41, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Cathal Ó Searcaigh again
Hi again Bastun,

I wasn't aware that I shouldn't link to drafts -- being very inexperienced, I was simply responding to the advice pages advice that drafts should not be left as 'orphans' by having no links to them from other related articles. I've completely misunderstood in that case. You have an eagle eye! Dmhball~enwiki (talk) 13:38, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

 * No worries,, the bio page is on my watchlist. Just to note, the bibliography article should be referring to Cathal as Ó Searcaigh, not by forename, in common with the rest of WP. Although references aren't strictly needed for a bibliography, ISBNs. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 13:56, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Global World Series
Hello Bastun, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Global World Series, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: G4: not remotely similar to deleted article, and deletion discussion was nearly 10 years ago. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 18:21, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi Ivanvector. As I'm not an admin, I don't have visibility of deleted pages, but I can see the prior deletion discussion. What applied in that AfD seemed equally relevant to the current article. In fact,, who nominated the prior article for deletion, has also sent the re-created one to AfD. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 22:05, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
 * How can you say the new article is not "remotely similar to the deleted article"? It's about the exact same subject and the content is substantially the same. Spanneraol (talk) 22:31, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Draft:The book of numbers that appear in the sacred scriptures
Hello, Bastun,

You draftified this article but didn't inform the article creator about this page move as you are supposed to have done. Either post a message yourself on their User Talk page letting them know where they can find their article or use a script like User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft that does it automatically for you.

Draft:Cheerleader (Porter Robinson song)
You draftified Cheerleader (Porter Robinson song) to draft without giving explicit reason for it. While checking th draft, there are reasonable number of sources for standalone or maybe short which can be expanded. All the Best! Otuọcha  (talk) 11:13, 21 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Hi,, I used the 'Move to draft' script, which leaves the reason in the edit summary (unless it's a custom reason, which this was), and which also fills in the full reason on the draftified page. Per WP:NSONG, trivial repeats of a press release announcing a new song do not count as significant coverage. Bastun Ėġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 11:17, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * That can be a case of TOOSOON. Well, under WP:NCOVER,  Songs that do not rise to notability for an independent article should redirect to another relevant article, such as for the songwriter, a prominent album or for the artist who prominently performed the song.  It's best it's redirected to the singer. I suggest you do that or I do. (Passionate appeal) All the Best!  Otuọcha   (talk) 11:21, 21 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Just an FYI, you aren't supposed to draftify articles more than once, as using draftspace is optional. Elli (talk | contribs) 18:40, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
 * No one was talking about draftifying twice. OP in some way. All the Best!  Otuọcha   (talk) 19:02, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I was talking to Bastun, who draftified the page twice. There was no point in making a separate talkpage section. Sorry for the confusion. Elli (talk | contribs) 22:45, 23 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Owh! Alright. Just to clear claims. All the Best!  Otuọcha   (talk) 22:47, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Edelman Family Foundation
Hello @Bastun

I am reaching out to you because of your previous participation in one of the discussions regarding the reliability and neutrality of HuffPost/Pink News/ProPublica as sources used on Wikipedia.

Currently, there is an ongoing issue with the Edelman Family Foundation section in the Joseph Edelman Wikipedia article. The section appears to be biased and lacks a balanced representation of the foundation's activities, as it primarily focuses on a single controversial donation while neglecting to mention the organization's numerous other significant contributions to various causes.

I would like to invite you to participate in the discussion on the BLP Noticeboard to address the concerns surrounding the section's neutrality and explore ways to improve its content. Llama Tierna (talk) 18:06, 1 April 2024 (UTC)

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
Hello ,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

Reminders:
 * You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
 * Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
 * To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Your recent editing history at Killone Abbey shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.Kindly stop hijacking the page and adding non-encyclopedic statements Kellycrak88 (talk) 11:45, 6 May 2024 (UTC)

 * @Kellycrak88, please don't template editors who obviously know what they're doing, and please don't call other editors biased when there is no evidence that they are not acting in good faith. It is ridiculous that you are being accused of trying to WP:OWN articles you did not create or substantially contribute to, but it's no less antagonistic to repeatedly hit another editor with warning templates about edit warring. I have suggested a way forward on my talk page in response to Bastun's comment there. The two of you can take it or leave it - it's only a suggestion and there are other ways to work through this - but continuing the argument via warning templates is not a good solution. -- asilvering (talk) 21:57, 10 May 2024 (UTC)

Lowland Scot and English Protestant Settlers did not Speak Irish Gaelic
The Lowland Scot/Ulster Scot and Anglo-Irish communities in Ireland spoke Scots or English, not Irish, and still do.

 * I started a discussion on the talk page, and the organization you linked to never claims that Irish Gaelic was historically ever a community, native or ethnic language of Protestant Scots and English settlers or descendant communities in Ireland (it wasn't). Protestantism's arrival in Ireland began the intense Anglicization of the country, and the settlement sought to sever Gaelic, Catholic Ulster from the Gaelic, Catholic Scottish Highlands.
 * Also, the website you linked to confuses Scots Gaelic or Galwegian Gaelic with Ulster Irish Gaelic. They are different languages. Ulster Protestants and Ulster Scots were never native IRISH Gaelic speakers. 65.95.157.102 (talk) 15:54, 12 May 2024 (UTC)
