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.

  Miscellaneous

• Following a community referendum, the arbitration policy has been modified to remove the ability for users to appeal remedies to Jimbo Wales.

@Ceyockey: Regarding your recent revert, it's worth mentioning that I'm pretty sure Special:WhatLinksHere/The_Queue is currently broken as none of the hundreds of pages currently listed on there link to or even mention the word "queue" at all. I've just found one article that had such a link, but I don't believe there are any other such articles. Chessrat ^{(talk, contributions)} 00:52, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

I've already replaced a couple using autowikibrowser and am working through them. Don't be so quick to say "oh, you idiot", please. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 00:55, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Turns out that the majority of the what-links-here are due to a link to The Queue in Template:Elizabeth II. Not broken what-links-here, just an annoying confluence of text and template driven links. I hate that "feature". --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 01:04, 11 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Ceyockey, I couldn't help noticing that you are adding numerous categories like "Category:Evolutionary biology terminology" to articles.

Now, in the case of a tricky term like "Adaptation", you are arguably correct, the term has multiple meanings, so the article does not describe (or the term denote) a single biological entity, however much we feel that we understand the process, but several, and its topic must be considered at least in part as describing the term and its extension within biological discourse.

On the other hand, with something well-defined like "amino acid" or "adenine", we are not talking about tricky overlapping or conflicting meanings. Many, I hope most, terms in biology have a definite meaning, and a typical biology article is about the thing that the title names, not about the term itself. We are in fact explicitly enjoined by policy to write about things, not terms: WP:NOTDICT.

So, categories that end in "... terminology" do not fit well with subjects like these; indeed I would say that calling Adenine an article about "biology terminology", for instance, is a definite error.

One other thing: I don't really see why this sort of categorisation is needed, as if A is a biochemical and B is a taxon (group of types of organism), then both A and B will fit into a hierarchy which will be topped off by Category:Biology eventually.

I do not wish to spend the next days undoing thousands of newly-added biology categories, so it would be helpful if you could demonstrate consensus for the current categorisation drive (I hope the fact that these articles begin with A means it hasn't gone too far yet!) before proceeding. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:07, 20 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

• @Chiswick Chap: I'm trying to make SOME consistency among glossaries, terminology sets and categories of terminology and I appreciate input, but there is essentially no sense or reason to how things are included in these three piles at the moment. I'm not stupid nor editing in a didactic manner. I will likely re-evaluate in the near future but I'm trying out something to feel if it fits. It doesn't fit quite right at the moment and I do think that "aligning" glossary of biology with biology terminology will likely be bad in the long run. I'm going to step away for a bit and come back and see how I feel about the shape and will likely recompose the inclusion criteria in the terminology category to take into account your comment and some additional thoughts on the matter. Regards. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 19:14, 20 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Thank you. I certainly don't think categorisation or categorisers are stupid; I do think that categories about words are unlike categories about things. Whether categories about words are sometimes valid (as, it could be argued, with slippery customers like "adaptation") or always valid (again, it could be said that every article is named by a term, but that line of argument would have very far-reaching implications) is a subtle matter that warrants careful thought. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:19, 20 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
• @Chiswick Chap: I've reverted a couple of additions I made as I agree they didn't belong (things like "amino acid"). I've substantially re-written the inclusion criteria statements. I've also added a full accounting of the revisions to the category talk page so that the rationale for my removals from and additions to the category are transparent. I'm thinking of proceeding along these lines. Thanks for your thoughts. --User:Ceyockey (talk to me) 03:26, 23 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Many thanks. On the inclusion criteria, which are obviously welcome, I'd say explicitly that taxa, right up to the top-level (animal, archaea, bacteria, eukaryote) should be excluded, as we ought either to include all N million of them, or none (every taxon is an encyclopedic thing; the name of every taxon is a WP:NOTDICT dictionary term). The current list of 3 criteria is plainly difficult to apply, and could sweep in very many articles, including (uncomfortably) every member of "Biological concepts" and "Glossary of biology". I'd want to restrict membership to articles which are specifically about biology terminology, which discuss terms like adaptation precisely because they are of terminological (not purely biological) interest. To put it a different way, I believe that categories for terms should contain only meta-level articles, ones that discuss how concepts (in object-level categories like "Biological concepts") should be applied; it should not contain any object-level articles. So for example, "acclimatization", "aerobic organism", and "autotroph" are biological concepts, and the terms for them are not of special interest (they apply simply and directly to single, sharply-defined concepts).

  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

• Special:Contributions now shows the user's local edit count and the account's creation date. (T324166)

  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.

Hi @Ceyockey

I found your site and as a newbie to Wikipedia editing it's super impressive what you've already done here!

For my first article, I thought it would be easiest to take an existing article in my native language (German), translate it, and add additional information. I wrote about Nanoscribe which is part of the BICO group. In case you did not hear about them yet, they make 3D laser microprinters. e I made some mistakes at the beginning and didn't realize some problems with citations. But I think I have that pretty well fixed now. I submitted it for review and I've been waiting for several weeks for someone to review it. Could you help me with this? As a newbie, if there are still problems with the article, I would be happy to get your tips :)

Hello, Ceyockey. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Adagio Therapeutics".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When 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.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 19:37, 7 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your edit on 18 September, has inadvertently led to some Disambiguation links: Craik, Carrick, Craigie, Cragg and Craggs. Only Carrick was able to be resolved because it had a wiki dictionary name variant etymology page.

Do you want stub pages made for variant names; Craik, Craigie, Cragg and Craggs?
