| Hello! I like to hear your opinion on the article ] on the Israeli-Arab conflict which I put on AFD.

| Sure. I know Google Books (and more generally Google) gives different results for different users, but if you insert the string ''"Meg Foster" "May 14, 1948"'' on Google Books you should be able to locate it. Obviously if you want to remove the date of birth or want to mention only the year of birth on the basis of privacy concerns you are free to do it, but the reference is certainly correct. ] 08:35, 27 January 2023 (UTC) | |||

| (unindent) Hi, this page came up on my watchlist, thought I'd have a go and see if it worked for me. It didn't, neither in IE or Firefox 1.5.0.6. After a little investigating I discovered the reason is that replace.js is using a function addLink to actually display the tabs. This function is defined in User:Omegatron/monobook.js/addlink.js. An 'inc' in Gimmetrow's monobook.js includes this already, and the automated peer review script in Sandy's monobook.js also has a call to addlink hidden in there, which is why it works for them. If you add <code><nowiki>{{subst:js|User:Omegatron/monobook.js/addlink.js}}</nowiki></code> to your monobook.js before the corresponding call for replace.js (and then clear the cache) it should work! --] 20:53, 28 October 2006 (UTC) | |||

| === TS et alia === | |||
| Most of the jargon is wikilinked, but for the sake of those who read non-linearly some could be wikilinked later too. I already did that with "comorbid" - another one is "epidemiological" in the "Research" section. BTW, two consecutive sentences there begin "Controversy remains...". Also this sentence seems repetitive in a puzzling way: "One of the most controversial presumed causes, the PANDAS hypothesis, remains contentious." | |||

| == Monsignori == | |||
| Sorry, I cannot help more. The rules about age and priesthood qualifications were communicated by the Secretariat of State in 2001, but I know of no printed or electronic source where they were published. The rest of what I wrote (including, I think, the exception from the 45-year-old rule for vicars general, and very definitely the statement that vicars general hold "the rank of Protonotary Apostolic Supernumerary" - the reason given to justify the other statements) is based on a note I made about the same time, from some not excessively earlier source(s) of which I no longer have any memory. The content of that note is what I first posted; much of it is no longer in the article. | |||
| If the Pius X legislation no longer holds, on what basis are vicars general classified as Monsignors? Ten or more years ago, I enquired from the Congregation for Divine Worship whether priests were still authorized to celebrate three Masses on 2 November. The Roman Missal of that time mentioned only Christmas Day as a day on which this was permitted. Consequently, at least one Ordo (the Australian) stated that it was no longer permitted on 2 November. At least one other Ordo said the opposite. The Congregation answered me, saying that the privilege granted by Benedict XV had not been withdrawn. (The 2002 Roman Missal has now explicitly added 2 November.) I presume it is the same for vicars general. | |||
| Apart from the Misplaced Pages article, I never came across the expression "black protonotaries"; but I am not questioning it. | |||
| From this point on, do what you like with the article. I can give no more help, except to suggest that you omit anything that you consider - what's the phrase? - original research? But that neither should you put in, without clear evidence, denials of what I have written, since (rightly or wrongly) I am confident of its exactitude. | |||
| The article is not on my watchlist. It was more or less by chance that I looked at it yesterday or the day before. And I looked at it again today only because of a typical HarvardOxon message sent to me about my edit. In fact I replied to his message hours before the thought came to me to have another look at the article. ] 20:06, 21 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

| I did not see the YouTube link as a convenience link. My understanding of a convenience link is a link to a readily available (thus convenient) copy of a source, when the editor has actually used a different source which is cited. In this case, that would have been someone who could say I've seen the original, here is a copy. This definition comes from one of the bullet points in ]. | |||
| Had it been a convenience link, at the very least, the provider would have said when and where the interview ran on TV. Looking at the YouTube link again, I see today that Renetto only claimed that it ran on his local affiliate, not on the network. Nobody mentioned this in the DRV discussion, so I don't know if anyone else noticed that; I certainly didn't, and I generally think people were assuming it was the network, because local news coverage often gets deprecated for being local. | |||
| You can see an example of times I've used online copies of hard copy originals in the ] article that I mention in response to question two. Three of the seven sources are from Google Books. ] 20:08, 28 December 2006 (UTC) | |||

| Dear Wikimedian, | |||

| Hello, regarding your comment on the FLC page about the two sentences I don't really understand what you mean. Your sentence "This suggests that the current ratings not titles of jobs that individuals actually perform" doesn't make much sense. I think you mean that a reader could infer that none of the current ratings refer to actual jobs and that they all refer to job types and therefore each rating would have a job title under it. Now that being said I don't see a way to revise these two sentences to relay that information other than just spelling it out into three or four more sentences.— ] <sup>(]/])</sup> 00:42, 23 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

| This really had no source -- nothing at all. The uploader used {{tl|newspapercover}}, which might have been an attempt to communicate that the photograph was once used by some newspaper somewhere. The uploader was notified of the problem, and the image was eventually deleted by ]. ] may have failed to place the deletion notification templates in the captions of the articles using this image, but this was really more or less a blatant copyvio that should have been deleted on sight. All of that said, deleting admins do need to check the history, but even that is sometimes not enough. Blanking of a fair use tag by an anon is sometimes the copyright holder objecting to a spurious fair use claim, for instance. A lot of judgement has to be used with image deletion, but there is only a handful of admins doing it and there are hundreds of images to be deleted every day. More automation might very well be helpful. ] 01:49, 28 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

Unwelcome
Since apparently the community accepts talk page bans, the following people are unwelcome to post here in any manner.
- Kww, Malleus, John, Nuclear, Merridew
This ban includes any other accounts they may hold. If any of these people have something to say to me, their reprseentative must contact me first through "email this user" and obtain my authorisation. Their represeentative may not post here on their behalf either. Gimmetrow 12:00, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
Return of sysop user-right
Hi Gimmetrow. Welcome back. I have returned your sysop user-right, and I do hope to see you around a bit more. As always, there's lots to do! As I mentioned at BN, if you could use the Template:Cite web for the birthdate references, I am sure that will help people in the future. Worm(talk) 13:11, 25 January 2023 (UTC)
Meg Foster date
Sure. I know Google Books (and more generally Google) gives different results for different users, but if you insert the string "Meg Foster" "May 14, 1948" on Google Books you should be able to locate it. Obviously if you want to remove the date of birth or want to mention only the year of birth on the basis of privacy concerns you are free to do it, but the reference is certainly correct.

Administrative permissions and inactivity reminder
This is a reminder that established policy provides for removal of the administrative permissions of users who have made fewer than 100 edits over a 60-month period. You are receiving this annual reminder since you have averaged less than 50 edits per year over the last 5 years.
Inactive administrators are encouraged to reengage with the project in earnest rather than to make token edits to avoid loss of administrative permissions. Resources and support for reengaging with the project are available at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Editor Retention/administrators. If you do not intend to be engaged with the project in the foreseeable future, please consider voluntarily resigning your administrative permissions by making a request at the bureaucrats' noticeboard.
Thank you for your past contributions to the project. — JJMC89 bot 00:21, 1 January 2024 (UTC)
