:If I delete something without a tag or prior warning, I try my best to notify the user with real words instead of a template (and I don't think there is one anyway, nothing I've been able to find).

So I wouldn't worry too much about the template, just a note to the author, with an offer to help them if they feel it was an incorrect deletion for whatever reason. For deletions that I do as a result of someone else's tag, I have also linked authors to my ] that explains why, and how to get it back.

Hi, Keeper.

None of these people have admitted to being gay, but all have information in their article that is within the project's interest.

:I'm not an admin, but I'm going to go ahead and throw my two cents in. From what I can see, the LGBT tag isn't purely for people who identify as LGBT. ] has one, ] has one, ], ], and ] all have them. So there's plenty of precedent for having the template up on the talk page of people who aren't LGBT. I think if an office ticket was submitted by the Crist camp then it would be the right thing to remove it, but until then community acceptance seems to be on the side of letting the project tag go up wherever it wants to. A change to letting these articles be tagged would be something that should be sorted out at either the project page or a general discussion area (village pump, RfC, etc). ] (]) 01:12, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Again, let me '''''adamanetly state''''', I'm explicitly '''''not''''' against adding this tag were appropriate, nor am I against said community. I merely feel that it needs to be applied sparingly and where necessitated. Crist, at this point, is not necessitated, only because it is at "rumor" stage, without any substantial sources to back up the claims. Please don't misconstrue this as being (personally) any way bigoted or close minded.

:::I think I may be a bit slow to respond because for some reason, this is getting my dander up. I don't like responding when I'm irked. So I'm going to reply when I feel all, you know, whatev. I want to make sure, however, the following is understood: 1) adding the tag does not state or imply that the subject is gay. True, some people may make that snap assumption, but the project cannot control what people infer despite cited fact in the article. 2) The comment "other than disparagement" is disconcerting. I can only speak for myself as a member of WP:LGBT in saying that only cited fact is what I'm interested in as a member of the project. I dislike that sexual orientation is used as political fodder, similarly to the Karl Rove-brainchild of calling voters in South Carolina and asking them if it would change their votes to learn that John Edwards had a mixed race child out of wedlock. He did not, but it's South Carolina, and just putting that idea in voters' heads had an adverse impact. Soon, a candidate may be accused of being gay and it will have absolutely no impact at all, because people simply won't care. Now, however, because Crist has been listed as a possible VP for John McCain, these rumors have emerged. If they are unfounded, I would like to make sure that the article reflects that. Ideally, all members of the project should have this goal in mind. Lastly, 3) I'm still having difficulty understanding how a template on the talk page violates BLP, which involves information on the article page. These two things are clearly separate in my mind. Is it that LGBT carries with it such an aura of... accusation? or guilt? that it's presence affects the contents of the article? If that is the case, is that the issue that WP:LGBT must overcome? --] (]) 01:39, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
:::<small>edit conflict x3</small>I do see where you're coming from, and I agree that BLP is one of if not the most important wiki rules, but I don't think the template implies that Crist is gay or an acceptance of gay rumors. If you look at the wide variety of people who have the tags, and the wording of the template itself, to me it doesn't say "we think Crist is gay" or any variant thereof. In my opinion projects should be given wide leeway in determining what's of interest to them, so long as the language of the template allows it. And don't stress!

Crist has not identified himself as gay, and as the allegations that he is gay are rooted solely from his political opponents (I looked this up), then it is inappropriate to have the WikiProject LGBT template on his Talk Page. Barbra Streisand and Paris Hilton have gone out of their way to market their recordings and appearances to the gay media, so having an LGBT template on their pages is not problematic (how come no one mentioned Liza?). But Gov. Crist has specifically denied being gay, so having the LGBT template makes no sense. After all, this is not Rumor-pedia. ] (]) 03:16, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

<--To Moni, I need to rephrase something. When I said "other than disparagment", I did not mean Misplaced Pages disparaging a BLP by adding a tag. I meant the BLP's political opponents attempting to disparage him in the eyes of his (presumably conservative) support base/voters. I wholeheartedly agree that such an "accusation" should not be "disparaging", but it is, unfortunately, disparaging to a large percentage of the American population. Because its a BLP, and ''only'' because it's a BLP, should we be extra careful and "do no harm". I'll go look at the article and sources, and I'm going to crosspost this on your talk to be sure you see it. My apologies if anything I'm typing is being misread, I sincerely am ''not'' trying to sound offensive, but my keyboard is having difficulty expressing my tone and finding the right way to say what I'm trying to say. ] {{IPA|&#448;}} ] 14:11, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

::Thanks for the response, Keeper. I understand. I think. Actually I'm not sure what's being said anymore. What seems like a very black and white situation: a template on a talk page having nothing at all to do with content in the article, is being construed in ways I never conceived. It's quite creative, actually, and had I no investment in it I might find it pretty entertaining. --] (]) 14:23, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
:::It only "seems" like a black and white issue, but it's really more of a greyish yellow-brown issue. Like the color of baby-vomit, really. One day, the world will pull its borg-like head out its ass and realize that it really isn't an issue at all, of any color. My sincere apologies to you Moni if I've caused any offense to you personally, or if you feel that I'm only feeding the negativity of the conservative viewpoints. I think, in the end, that the LGBT tag can be appropriate if that particular multi-viewpoint WikiProject feels that the article is worth including, for whatever reason. There need to be third party reliable sources (yes, even for the talkpage tagging for a BLP) that show how Crist is involved (even in a negative way) with the LGBT community. Forgetting the political mucky-muck for a sec - as a legislator/governor, has he done anything policy-wise that is of specific interest to WP:LGBT to include his article under its wing? I can see a justification for adding it, in similar fashion to adding it to Dubya/Dobson/other high profile conservative politicians/faces. ] {{IPA|&#448;}} ] 14:36, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
::::Ok. This is a fight that this project has had many times, and no doubt will have numerous times in the future. Right now, ] is open to interpretation, and WP:LGBT's goals and missions, according to these discussions on Charlie Crist, are being interpreted to mean that we are trying to impose an agenda of gay sexual orientation on the article and on Crist. This is not the case. We are trying to make sure accurate information is being presented in the article. What is very bothersome is that editors not involved in WP:LGBT are allowed to interpret what our intentions and goals are, and remove the tag accordingly. Moreover, we may be the only WikiProject whose appearance on a talk page carries with it POV, just by being there. I've stared at this paragraph for what seems 30 minutes. I don't know what to write anymore... I'm nonplussed. --] (]) 15:15, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
:::::You realize, I sincerely hope, that I'm on your side of this particular issue. This keyboard is doing me injustice, I can't format my sentences properly. I'll try a ridiculously unrelated and inappropriate analogy. I wouldn't tag ] with ], even though most of the captial St. Paul is Irish and was built by the Irish. Why does this one particular article need the tag? What's the motivatioin behind it? There is nothing stopping you and every other editor from making sure that the article on a US governor is accurate, NPOV, sourced. Whether the talkpage is tagged or not. The fact that the LGBT wikiproject "carries with it POV", to use your words, is unfortunate, and wrong. I'll gladly (]) help clear that. I have no malice towards the WikiProject, I don't presume to know what the group's "intentions and goals" are, and if anything that I've stated otherwise was interpretted that way, let me know so I can strike it. I have no idea what the groups goals and intentions are, other than to work collaboratively to build a better encyclopedia like every other WikiProject. Also, I don't know what nonplussed means. And I'm not sure anymore what I think about any of this, but I highly highly respect you and the work you do here (for free) on Misplaced Pages and I'm going to stop responding for somewhere between 8 and 20 hours so that I can have a clear head.

:::::::I understand you're not against the project, I do. I wouldn't remove WP:Ireland from any project they think is under their scope. Using analogies, imagine if I removed WP:Military History templates because I think they can only come from a place of warmongering and hyperviolence. That their actions in the article will only lead to a bias. It would be stunning, would it not? Would that not get them upset? Why should I determine what articles are within their scope? Loopholes and problems like these call for clarity in policy. I despise the bickering and accusation that goes on on the ANI page about who's more offended that who, but this seems to me as if folks are neglecting to Assume Good Faith of an entire WikiProject. Why on earth would we tag an article if not to ensure it should have accurate information in it?
:::::::A period of thought is probably called for. I would like to be able to proceed with something productive. If that means WP:LGBT should write out and have consensus from its project members about what falls under their scope for many editors to read, then I'll be happy to start that process. If BLP should be clarified, I don't know how to do that. If policy elsewhere should be clearer about AGF from a WikiProject, I don't know where to go for that or what to do. --] (]) 15:52, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

:Matt Lewis' commentary is far ''far'' from ideal, and I apologize if you feel I was ignoring his tone.

I reverted you again because I simply honestly fail to see how "undoing" his revert of your edit and readding the template (disclosure, I ''detest'' all templates, they are distracting to our readers), when he is clearly upset by it, will somehow help alleviate the problem with the article and its lead. ] {{IPA|&#448;}} ] 21:12, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

I have only ever worked on the Wales article, I have no vested interest in the content (or knowledge for that matter), and was asked by Ddstretch to comment as uninvolved, regarding the lead sentence. There's an archive of that craziness on Talk:Wales. The article has remained in my watchlist is all. I'm sure some good will come out of it, I found a refreshingly dedicated group of editors (with vastly different POVs mind you) that came together and found a solution that has "stuck" for a couple of weeks, no small feat considering the edit warring and near-protection of the article that was eminent. I think what happened is that the tagging ''felt'' "drive-by", too soon after so much effort went into the "lead". I strongly agree with you that there are multiple issues in the lead. The tag, while added completely in good faith, was simply not helping address the issues, it was merely shining a blinding light in the eyes of those working on fixing it.

Hey there Keeper. I just came here because I almost never get any new messages anymore. Besides Balloonman a few days ago and the 4 DYK templates on my short talk page... Heh... I just wanted to let you know I got a new user page design (Yay!). So if you come across someone with my old user page design (i.e ]), it's not me. ;) I also started adopting again... You can look at the program ]... hopefully it won't break down like the last time from what I've learned. I'll basically adopt only one editor, possibly two if someone desperately needs it.

Notification of pending suspension of administrative permissions due to inactivity

Information icon Following a community discussion in June 2011, consensus was reached to provisionally suspend the administrative permissions of users who have been inactive for one year (i.e. administrators who have not made any edits or logged actions in more than one year). As a result of this discussion, your administrative permissions will be removed pending your return if you do not return to activity within the next month. If you wish to have these permissions reinstated should this occur, please post to the Misplaced Pages:Bureaucrats' noticeboard and the userright will be restored per the re-sysopping process (i.e. as long as the attending bureaucrats are reasonably satisfied that your account has not been compromised, that your inactivity did not have the effect of evading scrutiny of any actions which might have led to sanctions, and that you have not been inactive for a three-year period of time). If you remain inactive for a three-year period of time, including the present year you have been inactive, you will need to request reinstatement at WP:RFA.

"Old Boy?" Oy, looks like I was gone a bit too long this time, lulz. I can't haz adminz. I remember back in the dusty days of 08-09 when it was fiercely debated (citation needed) whether admin rights could be stripped. I was adamantly opposed to indefinite admin rights and thought they should retire with inactivity. Glad to see that is what's happening! In brighter news, the Twins are above .500, all is well in the world. Thanks for stopping by Xeno and TC.  :-) Keeper | 76 00:59, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
Always good to see your name pop up on my watchlist, even if it's just to say that you still don't want to hang out with us anymore. --Floquenbeam (talk) 01:39, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
I'm afraid I'm just that kind of guy, Floq. Although, in my current state of nostalgia digging through my talkpage archives from the past year, I found the nuke/don't nuke discussion for WP:AN/K. Some kind words were said there and I had a good chuckle. I can't believe I started gnoming about in this place coming up on 10 years ago. Good times! Be well - Keeper | 76 01:44, 2 May 2017 (UTC).
You too. --Floquenbeam (talk) 02:06, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Vikings in the playoffs

I'd say I'd root for them for your sake, but I'm committed to the Jags' bandwagon. What a weird season. StarM 03:39, 3 January 2018 (UTC)

I'm almost ready to talk about that game. Almost. Go Twins! Keeper | 76 04:37, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
Minnesota Miracle! Alas I was rooting for them in the following game because #Beagles. Hope you're well. StarM 15:47, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
Everything about that game was horrible and terrible and horrible. At about 1:30 left, a non-football-literate friend of mine asked why the Vikings were using their timeouts at that particular juncture. I then proceeded to explain roughly how the game would go on to end. :-( Ed is a Saints fan  00:24, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
Why did I think you were a Pats/Sox fan, Ed? The terrible, horrible, no good, very bad games were the two that followed. StarM 02:12, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

This team is insane. You have a crap pass D, and we run. Luckily I like Brees, but I have no idea how he didn't light up Giants' D StarM 01:54, 6 October 2018 (UTC)


Are you done with Eli yet? Saquon looks high potential. OBJ looks like a diva. I'll take my Diggs/Thielen/Cousins trio any day over the mess in NY. Good to hear from you as always Star! Keeper | 76 01:28, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Football....

If you surface in the next fortnight or so and feel like some light reading, have a look at Misplaced Pages:Featured article candidates/Packers sweep/archive1 as gridiron is not my area of expertise by any means.....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 21:53, 5 October 2018 (UTC)

I can help on the football side if someone can walk me through FAC or link a tutorial StarM 01:53, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
A good way to start is to start reading and think, "is there anything about this that could be made better?" Essentially, an article should fulfil the Misplaced Pages:Featured article criteria. Have a look at WP:FAC though. There are not many American football articles that are Featured, so some more interest would be fantastic! Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 08:41, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
Wait, wait, wait. You want me, a diehard, pain-loving, heartbroken lifelong Vikings fan - to help you get a PACKERS article to FA status? Dream on, Cas :-) (and seriously, good work. I glanced at it, it looks very well written) Keeper | 76 01:30, 29 October 2018 (UTC)

Is it baseball season yet?

It's the doldrums for this northerner. The local football team found a spectacular way to grasp defeat from the claws of victory and missed the playoffs. In better sports, pitchers don't report for over a month. What to do. Keeper | 76 04:42, 12 January 2019 (UTC)

snowshoe? At least Ed will be happy - rooting for his boys and grateful to them for drop kicking the Beagles. Is your basketball team any good? Last I followed them,Christian Laettner was drafted. Hope you're well StarM 04:00, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
@Star Mississippi and Keeper76: Highway robbery. Ed  02:37, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
Ooh maybe I'll learn to ping now. Are you suing? <g> That was crazy StarM 03:54, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
@Star Mississippi: The pings are so fancy, right? Much better than having to leave {{talkback}} everywhere. No lawsuit from me, but next season could be rough. Literally the last chance, because there's no way they'll be able to meet Michael Thomas' asking price. (But they don't have a first round pick. Or third. Or fourth. Sigh.) Ed  06:11, 24 January 2019 (UTC)
@The ed17: let's see if I did that right. Last year with Brees too, right or do you think he goes another year? Michael Thomas is fun to watch as is Kamara. Plus as a Giants' fan I'm duty-bound to love Ingram. Keep, hope you're thawed from this week's awful weather. StarM 03:01, 2 February 2019 (UTC)
@StarM: You did! It has to be the last year for Brees. After this, the salary cap will start catching up with them. Like, there's no way they can keep Thomas after his rookie deal is up, they're not exactly going to get a lot of low-cost drafted players this year, and there will be $10.5 million in dead money for Brees alone. Ed  04:10, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
@The ed17: ooph, I feel you. Giants going to need rookie QB to come in Barkley year 3 to afford him, the QB and maybe OBJ. Although the cap has gone up, salaries have gone berserk. StarM 19:25, 9 February 2019 (UTC)

Hope you are both well, thanks for keeping ol' Keeper watchlisted. Keep those spammers away! I'll try to pop in now and then. And also, sweet JEEbus that RFA was like 15 years ago. Impossible.
