Hello JoePhin. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm S0091, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:   Introduction to Wikipedia   The five pillars of Wikipedia   Editing tutorial   How to edit a page   Simplified Manual of Style   The basics of Wikicode   How to develop an article   How to create an article   Help pages   What Wikipedia is not

Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:   Do be bold   Do assume good faith   Do be civil   Do keep cool!   Do maintain a neutral point of view   Don't spam   Don't infringe copyright   Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest   Don't commit vandalism   Don't get blocked

If you need further help, you can:   Ask a question

or you can:   Get help at the Teahouse

or even:   Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:   Fight vandalism   Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome   Help contribute to articles   Perform maintenance tasks

Become a member of a project that interests you   Help design new templates   Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost   Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

Hello JoePhin! I have for the most part restored the content you had removed from Bag of holding section in Magic item (Dungeons & Dragons). There was a separate article about this, but it was decided in a deletion discussion that there was not enough encyclopedic content based on secondary sources to warrant it's own article, but to merge it to where it is now. I think the content that does not pertain to D&D is also important to have there. Actually, I think it is especially important, because: I have seen many deletion discussions about such topics, where a main argument was that there is not enough content with real-world relevance, and so many an article was deleted because it was considered "fancruft". If we don't have enough such real-world connections, the Magic item (Dungeons & Dragons) article is also in danger of being deleted in the long run. If you think otherwise, or if you are concerned with specific phrasings, let's please discuss. Happy New Year!

Hello JoePhin, thanks for stopping by! Yeah, many D&D-related articles (and other fictional topics) have been deleted/redirected in the last year(s), and you can see the reasoning in this specific case here. Those most strongly advocating for deletion would expect a rather long direct treatment (and not focussing on plot-summary) of the topic in question in several secondary sources. As for combination on a level lower than the whole Magic item (Dungeons & Dragons), Hammerspace has been suggested as a possible parent article for the concept on a broader scope than D&D. There also once was an article about the concept of Magic satchel, but at that time was also voted to deletion here. Daranios (talk) 19:43, 2 January 2021 (UTC) First I had posted that at my page before realizing you kindly switched talk pages for answers. So I repost here, just in case.

Hi, just a note that edits like this one risk leaving misleading referencing behind. If the sentences you've added are not verifiable by looking at the citation (I haven't checked) then it's potentially misleading to leave an existing citation sentences away from the information it originally used to support. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the advice GPinkerton, and I see what you mean. I'm going to revisit this page and make sure its all in the reference (it should be, I think) and I'll try to make sure the references aren't mixed up or too far away from specific portions of the text they relate to. Maybe I could even get another good reference involved in there. On an unrelated note, is the reason you have no userpage so that when people link your name like 'GPinkerton' it comes out pinkish looking, or is that just a coincidence? Thanks again for the attention and critique, if you ever notice anything else like that in my edits, please let me know and I'll try to do it better (I'm noob).

If you are revedrted you make a case at talk you do not just edit war.

Your recent editing history 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. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for 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.

Hello @Slatersteven:. I'm "revedrted", am I? I invite you to discuss your concern over my edit to the Cryptozoology page here, or if you have some more technical objection to my edit, to bring it up in the article's talk page, which I will try to look out for. I recommend that you read the NPOV article to understand why the text in the Cryptozoology article does not currently meet Wikipedia's strict neutrality standard. The short version is: "Prefer nonjudgmental language. A neutral point of view neither sympathizes with nor disparages its subject", as well as the BRD article, particularly the 'What BRD is not' section where it is observed that, "BRD is not a valid excuse for reverting good-faith efforts to improve a page simply because you don't like the changes." as well as the 'Alternatives' section where it is observed that, "BRD doesn't work well in all situations. It is ideally suited to disputes that involve only a small number of people, all of whom are interested in making progress."

Reading through the Cryptozoology talk page, other editors have noted your unwillingness to compromise on the article, for example, @Hunter12396: wrote, "for each topic on wikipedia there are a handful of obsessed editors who in their minds 'own' a given page, and dominate any changes made to that page to ensure that it stays in line with their own views. For this page, Cryptozoology, the dominant editor(s) have decided that all crytozoology is a front for young earth creationism, and have applied to this topic (cryptozoology) the same condemnation they associate with the other topic (creationism). In reality they have homed in on a particular sub-group of cryptozoology and applied the entire article to that group. This is evident in the current 'owner's words, 'As the article makes clear, cryptozoology is a well defined subculture.'"

I believe you may be what the BRD article calls a 'VIP' - a Very Interested Person - and while I am dubious of your willingness to engage in an honest back and forth, or to address the NPOV violation on the article, I am willing to have a discussion with you. I understand that you probably deal with many cryptozoologists who wish the Wikipedia article to say 'cryptozoology is a perfectly legitimate science' and I would stand with you against edits to that effect. I am not a cryptozoologist, as is evidenced by my own edit where I refer to cryptozoology as pseudoscience. The fact that cryptozoologists use pseudoscientific methods does not mean neutrality goes out the window. One way or the other, the Cryptozoology page will be held to NPOV. No matter our disagreements, I wish you the best. Please take care.

The place to discuss this is over at the articles talk page, where others can also make their case. Compromise can only be reached, if people discuss, not just revert, you failed to discuss thus there was no possibility of compromise. Moreover, I knew others would revert you, hence why I told you to seek consensus. I will not discuss your reasoning here, I will at the talk page of the article.Slatersteven (talk) 16:50, 2 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-02-02T16:50:00.000Z","author":"Slatersteven","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Slatersteven-2021-02-02T16:50:00.000Z-JoePhin-2021-02-02T16:28:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in pseudoscience and fringe science. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

@PaleoNeonate:, I'll happily admit that I'm new and that I don't know everything about Wikipedia's policies yet (although I have been recommended more than a little reading over the past month). If you see me slacking on compliance with policies and guidelines, or if you think something I post is otherwise errant or disruptive, I really would like it if you would let me know; and since I've gotten mixed up in the Cryptozoology page, I will keep FRINGE in mind. It is fringe stuff, after all.

This is the only warning you will receive about ownership of articles, which you showed at cryptozoology. The next time you continue to disruptively edit Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Your edit summaries and edit warring seem to indicate that you are assuming ownership over this article. As you have been warned already, further actions in this regard are likely to escalate to request for remedies including blocks and bans. jps (talk) 20:46, 9 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-02-09T20:46:00.000Z","author":"\u0da2\u0db4\u0dc3","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-\u0da2\u0db4\u0dc3-2021-02-09T20:46:00.000Z-February_2021","replies":["c-JoePhin-2021-02-09T20:58:00.000Z-\u0da2\u0db4\u0dc3-2021-02-09T20:46:00.000Z"],"displayName":"jps"}}-->

A number of editors are behaving as if they own the cryptozoology page, but I am not one of them. You may have noticed that not a single one of my edits to the page, outside of minor copyediting, have survived, and we're discussing the edits in the talk page as per WP:BRD. Speaking of BRD, I'd appreciate it, @ජපස:, if you would contribute to the discussion we were having rather than summarily deleting material from the page that is under review.

Hello @Ritchie333:, nice to make your acquaintance, however digitally, and sorry for any confusion my name caused. In the future, if you're ever trying to tell the difference between my and Joe Roe's posts, there are several distinctions. Your man Joe's signature: "– Joe (talk)" always contains a dash, and the 'talk' portion is smaller. Mine is just the extremely generic "Joe (talk)" with no dash or embellishments. Now that you've brought it up, I've realized there are probably hundreds of other 'Joe's' out there on Wikipedia (it's hardly an uncommon name, after all) and I probably ought to add some distinction to my own signature to make it easier for people to distinguish, just as Joe Roe has. I'll probably make it emerald or something, if I ever figure out how you clever kids change the colors on these things. Thanks for mentioning it.

P.S. I enjoyed glancing through your user page, and particularly liked number 28 from Zen and the Art of Wikipedia Maintenance - wish you'd been there to scream for me the first time someone dropped 'WP:SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS' on me without explanation.

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in any gender-related dispute or controversy and associated people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here.

Cheers @Newslinger:, this 'super straight' page certainly is controversial, I'll try to be careful. I'll ask you if I have any questions, and if you see an edit of mine you think is poor, please ping me and let me know! I just want to copyedit, but I somehow find myself drawn into Wikipedia controversy. Must be a character flaw. Anyway, if you've got the time, check out the new super straight page that, if you ask me, has been created despite the subject matter's general lack of notability. Maybe you can help improve it before it gets deleted for being POV and unreliably sourced? I don't have high hopes.

Hi JoePhin, this message is a standard notice issued to editors who demonstrate interest in controversial topic areas. In your case, the Super straight article is covered under special rules (discretionary sanctions on gender and sexuality) mentioned near the top of Talk:Super straight. Many editors involved in controversial topic areas receive a notice about once per year for each topic area. Please be aware of the rules, but beyond that, there is no action needed on your behalf.

If you would like to opt out of these notifications, please follow the instructions at {{Ds/aware}} to place an awareness banner on your user talk page.

Based on the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Super straight, it looks like the main argument for deleting the Super straight article is that the reliable source coverage on this topic is not sustained over a sufficiently significant period. Since article content does not determine notability, improving the content of the article would not actually counter that argument. If the article does get deleted, I recommend looking out for new coverage of this topic, and collecting reliable sources that can be cited into a future draft of the article. If the article subject is determined to not be notable now, it could still be notable after new reliable sources materialize in the future. — Newslinger talk 07:59, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2021-03-29T07:59:00.000Z","author":"Newslinger","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Newslinger-2021-03-29T07:59:00.000Z-JoePhin-2021-03-29T07:49:00.000Z","replies":["c-JoePhin-2021-03-29T08:04:00.000Z-Newslinger-2021-03-29T07:59:00.000Z"]}}-->

This is a bit odd: Your name doesn't appear in the discussion at RfD which led to the deletion of dead meme. More to the point: In most cases, only administrators can delete pages, so the statement that you 'deleted' something has the potential to mislead other editors into thinking you're an administrator. I suggest you change the wording or remove the section.

@BlackcurrantTea: I'm not sure how to say this. I'm guessing you didn't recognize the image? Or read the other sections on my page? (If you do have a read through, don't worry, that link doesn't actually go to a GoFundMe page)

Worry not, if anyone erroneously concludes that I am an admin from such scurrilous evidence as a meme, I will be only too happy to dissuade them. Maybe I'll even add a userbox to that effect. Nice to meet you anyhoo, Mr. Tea!

You know that the Men's rights movement article is under discretionary sanctions, right? So please start a discussion for the text you wish to include, and don't stick it back in without any kind of context connecting it to the MRM.

The WP:ONUS is on the person who wishes to have disputed text in the article.

Guild of Copy Editors December 2021 Newsletter Hello and welcome to the December GOCE newsletter, a brief update of Guild activities since September 2021.                  Current and upcoming events Election time: Our end-of-year election of coordinators opened for nominations on 1 December and will close on 15 December at 23:59 (UTC). Voting opens at 00:01 the following day and will continue until 31 December at 23:59, just before "Auld Lang Syne". Coordinators normally serve a six-month term and are elected on an approval basis. Self-nominations are welcome. If you've thought of helping out at the Guild, or know of another editor who would make a good coordinator, please consider standing for election or nominating them here. December Blitz: We have scheduled a week-long copy-editing blitz for 12 to 18 December. Sign up now! Drive and Blitz reports September Drive: Almost 400,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 27 people who signed up, 21 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. October Blitz: From 17 to 23 October, we copy edited articles tagged in May and June 2021 and requests. 8 participating editors completed 26 copy edits on the blitz. Final results, including barnstars awarded, are available here. November Drive: Over 350,000 words of articles were copy edited for this event. Of the 21 people who signed up, 14 copyedited at least one article. Final results and awards are listed here. Other news It is with great sadness that we report the death on 19 November of Twofingered Typist, who was active with the Guild almost daily for the past several years. His contributions long exceeded the thresholds for the Guild's highest awards, and he had a hand in innumerable good and featured article promotions as a willing collaborator. Twofingered Typist also served as a Guild coordinator from July 2019 to June 2021. He is sorely missed by the Wikipedia community. Progress report: As of 30 November, GOCE copyeditors have completed 619 requests in 2021 and there were 51 requests awaiting completion on the Requests page. The backlog stood at 946 articles tagged for copy-editing (see monthly progress graph above). Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Jonesey95, Dhtwiki, Tenryuu, and Miniapolis. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

What it says is Ethno-racial "color labels" may be given capitalized (Black and White) or lower-case (black and white). There is no consensus either for or against using mixed case (Black and white).

Hi there, JoePhin, and welcome to Women in Red. As you are interested in archaeology and paleontology, you perhaps intend to write about women who are active in these fields. If so, you might find some deserving names in our redlinks, e.g. women archaeologists (crowd sourced) and women archaeologists (from Wikidata). Similar redlists exist for paleontology: (crowd sourced) and Wikidata. As you have not yet created any biographies, you might find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 07:31, 8 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2022-02-08T07:31:00.000Z","author":"Ipigott","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Ipigott-2022-02-08T07:31:00.000Z-Women_in_Red","replies":["c-JoePhin-2022-02-08T11:15:00.000Z-Ipigott-2022-02-08T07:31:00.000Z"]}}-->

Please don't reignite this again. We already had a long discussion, and got a consensus to mention the myth but not to use these three sources. We don't need three sources for a trivial statement, particularly YouTube videos. Move on.

Yo, I appreciate all the hard work you do at List of common misconceptions as I'm sure you do elsewhere. Just thought I'd point out that in linking you can use, for example, [[Help:link]]ing to generate the link Help:linking in place of [[Help:Link|Help:linking]]. Hope this helps!

Thank you very much @Anderjef:! I've only been editing Wikipedia for about a year and a half, so I'm still very much a noob, and I appreciate whenever people let me know these things. I think I've probably made a bunch of links that are needlessly long and stupid all over Wikipedia. I'll try to make my links with 's's and 'ing's and whatnot on the end rather than like ((Duck|Ducks)) from now on. Cheers!

Greetings. I noticed that you recently made an edit to Mary Sue with reference to an article in Bitch magazine. Do you happen to know the author/title/date of the specific article? I haven't been able to find these details online. Thanks. --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 13:41, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221010134100","author":"Sangdeboeuf","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Sangdeboeuf-20221010134100-Mary_Sue","replies":["c-JoePhin-20221010193000-Sangdeboeuf-20221010134100"]}}-->

Hello Sangdeboeuf, the source I was using for that was (I think the only) Bitch Magazine reference that's already on the page; Bitch: Feminist Response to Pop Culture, Volume 31, P56, specifically

"Regularly referred to as "Marty Stu," or "Gary Sue," they are especially prevalent in science fiction and fanfic..."

I see that someone changed the lede back to "Gary Stu." I'm not sure if that's attested to in the RS, but at the same time, speaking in terms of simple WP:BLUE, the term Gary Stu is undoubtedly used, and may actually be more common for all I know. It probably doesn't really matter if we say "Gary Sue" or "Gary Stu." I mean, we could say both, in addition to "Marty Stu," but if we listed every single male alternative, that might go on for a while. Unless you think we should change it to be "Gary Sue" per Bitch, I'm happy to have it either way.

Nice to talk to you, cheers!

Unfortunately a preview for that source is not available. However, with some digging I was able to find a full-text version of the article: https://works.bepress.com/raizelliebler/14/. --Sangdeboeuf (talk) 09:47, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221011094700","author":"Sangdeboeuf","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Sangdeboeuf-20221011094700-JoePhin-20221010193000","replies":["c-JoePhin-20221011153800-Sangdeboeuf-20221011094700"]}}-->

@Sangdeboeuf: huh, that's very weird, I can actually see a preview when I look on that google books page I linked. Maybe it's region locked or I have special access to it through an institution or something? I don't know why I can see it but you can't. Anyway, thanks for finding a general purpose version of the text, and thanks for your recent cleanups on the Mary Sue page - reference copyediting is one of those important but thankless things that tends to just get ignored forever because it's mostly out of sight and out of mind. I appreciate it whenever I see someone doing that sort of thing. :) Joe (talk) 15:38, 11 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20221011153800","author":"JoePhin","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-JoePhin-20221011153800-Sangdeboeuf-20221011094700","replies":["c-Sangdeboeuf-20221011163700-JoePhin-20221011153800"],"displayName":"Joe"}}-->

Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 12 December 2022. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2022 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page.

Guild of Copy Editors December 2022 Newsletter Hello and welcome to our latest newsletter, a quarterly digest of Guild activities since October. Don't forget you can unsubscribe at any time; see below. Blitz: Our October Copy Editing Blitz focused on July and August 2022 request months; and articles tagged for c/e in December 2021 and January 2022. Seventeen of those who signed up claimed at least one copy-edit, and between them copy-edited forty-six articles. Barnstars awarded are here. Drive: In the November Backlog Elimination Drive, thirty editors signed up, twenty-two of whom claimed at least one copy-edit. Both target months—December 2021 and January 2022—were cleared, and February was added to the target months. Sixteen requests were copy-edited and 239 articles were removed from the backlog. Barnstars awarded are here. Blitz: Our seven-day-long December 2022 Copy Editing Blitz begins on 17 December at 00:01 (UTC)*. It will focus on articles tagged for copy-edit in February 2022, and pending requests from September and October. Barnstars awarded will be available here. Progress report: As of 22:40, 8 December 2022, GOCE copyeditors have processed 357 requests since 1 January, there were seventy-four requests outstanding and the backlog stands at 1,791 articles. We always need skilled copy-editors; please help out if you can. Election news: Nomination of candidates for the GOCE's Election of Coordinators for the first half of 2023 is open and continues until 23:59 on 15 December. Voting begins at 00:01 on 16 December and closes at 23:59 on 31 December. All editors in good standing (not under ArbCom or community sanctions) are eligible and self-nominations are welcomed. Coordinators serve a six-month term that ends at 23:59 on June 30. If you've thought about helping out at the Guild, please nominate yourself or any editor you consider suitable—with their permission, of course!. It's your Guild and it doesn't coordinate itself. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers and best seasonal wishes from your GOCE coordinators, Baffle gab1978, Dhtwiki, Miniapolis, Tenryuu, and Zippybonzo. *All times and dates on this newsletter are UTC. To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

The GOCE December 2022 newsletter, as sent on 9 December, contains an erroneous start date for our December Blitz. The Blitz will start on 11 December rather than on 17 December, as stated in the newsletter. I'm sorry for the mistake and for disrupting your talk page; thanks for your understanding.

We wish you all happy copy-editing. Election results: In our December 2022 coordinator election, Reidgreg and Tenryuu stepped down as coordinators; we thank them for their service. Incumbents Baffle gab1978, Dhtwiki, Miniapolis and Zippybonzo were returned as coordinators until 1 July. For the second time, no lead coordinator was chosen. Nominations for our mid-year Election of Coordinators open on 1 June (UTC). Drive: 21 editors signed up for our January Backlog Elimination Drive, 14 of whom claimed at least one copy-edit. Between them, they copy-edited 170 articles totaling 389,737 words. Barnstars awarded are here. Blitz: Our February Copy Editing Blitz focused on October and November 2022 requests, and the March and April 2022 backlogs. Of the 14 editors who signed up, nine claimed at least one copy-edit; and between them, they copy-edited 39,150 words in 22 articles. Barnstars awarded are here. Drive: Sign up now for our month-long March Backlog Elimination Drive. Barnstars awarded will be posted here after the drive closes. Progress report: As of 12:08, 19 March 2023 (UTC), GOCE copyeditors have processed 73 requests since 1 January 2023, all but five of them from 2022, and the backlog stands at 1,872 articles. Thank you all again for your participation; we wouldn't be able to achieve what we have without you! Cheers from your GOCE coordinators Baffle gab1978, Dhtwiki, Miniapolis and Zippybonzo.

	Women in Red 8th Anniversary
	In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

New contest!

This month has seen an incredible amount of activity creating high quality content, with 3 FAs, 3 FACs, and a veritable flood of GAs and GANs, not to mention the FLs and FLCs. To help maintain this high level of activity going forward, WikiProject Tree of Life is starting a new monthly rolling contest, inspired by the contest run by WikiProject Military History. This contest should hopefully help incentivize editors to contribute in ways that are less daunting than writing articles that are GA and FA-quality. Even improving articles from stub to start class, or helping other editors by reviewing their work at GAN, FAC, or FLC, gets you points, with bonus points for articles with especially high page views. Make sure to participate in any way you can, and help improve the 'pedia while having fun and winning Barnstars!

Contest results

The first edition of our new monthly contest had perhaps a little less participation than I hoped for, but it still resulted in a huge amount of content work, mainly focussed on de-stubbing articles on little-known species, although we did also see two GAs for Holozoa and Hypericum perforatum. Overall, over 60 articles were improved, with most going from stubs or redlinks to fully fleshed out articles. The winner this month was Simongraham, who improved 21 articles about spiders, mainly to B and C class, and racked up 70 points, over twice the next highest. Hopefully, we'll continue to see such great work next month, with even more participants and even more articles improved. Also anyone who wants to help coordinate the contest can just drop by at the talk page, I really need help.

New newsletter!

Now, this newsletter is technically not new, but I have only recently become aware of its existence and am only a month late, so it still counts. Wikiproject Fungi's Lichen task force has a new newsletter that is very nicely formatted and also features much better writing than this newsletter. Anyone interested in receiving the newsletter can add their name here.

News at a glance

The newsletter will not be returning to a monthly format (mainly because the author is busy failing every exam imaginable) and is on a bimonthly schedule for the foreseeable future. The second round of the WikiCup was very competitive, requiring the highest points total to advance since 2014. Two TOL editors, AryKun and Fritzmann2002, advanced to the third round. The March edition of our monthly rolling contest was won by simongraham, who amassed 118 points from 21 articles on various species of jumping spider; in second place was Quetzal1964 with 109 points from 53 articles on marine ray-finned fish. Quetzal1964 and simongraham were also the top two in the April edition, although Quetzal was ahead this time, with 68 points to simongraham's 48. In the annual leaderboard, Quetzal and simongraham are in first and second place respectively, with 291 and 246 points; in third place is Snotoleks, with 76 points.

March DYKs

It’s not bothersome at all! I am not entirely sure, but I think you just need to mention that the image has been cropped, masked (you removed the background), and mirrored under "source" alongside giving a link to the original image.

Hey Joe, thought I would drop a line here as I'm going to open an RfC on the lede if no other editors are weighing in (beyond you and MS). I wanted to run some options by you and confirm that you won't drop a link to a source you believe the lede is summarizing:

Option 1) Is the paragraph:

"A common misconception is a viewpoint or factoid that is often accepted as true but which is actually false. They generally arise from conventional wisdom (such as old wives' tales), stereotypes, superstitions, fallacies, a misunderstanding of science, or the popularization of pseudoscience. Some common misconceptions are also considered to be urban legends, and they are sometimes involved in moral panics."

sourced by WP:BLUE in light of an editor challenging it as incorrect and unverifiable?

Option 2) Is the paragraph....

Summarizing the sources provided in the body of list of common misconceptions?

Option 3) Does WP:BURDEN require sources verifying the information in the paragraph...

Be provided before the content can feature in the article after its veracity and correctness has been challenged?

I will admit I will be quite rocked if an RfC confirms that the sourcing was fine and I was reading policy this badly the whole time, and I'll likely have to step away from the page for a while haha. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 22:44, 7 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20240707224400","author":"Rollinginhisgrave","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Rollinginhisgrave-20240707224400-RfC_on_Lede","replies":["c-JoePhin-20240708074100-Rollinginhisgrave-20240707224400"]}}-->

Dear User Rollinginhisgrave, first of all, please feel free to make a RfC, it's always good to get lots of people's opinions about these things. I very much expect you will not get the lede removed, however, in light of the overwhelming number of RS that support it. When you ask for someone to "drop a link to a source", I'm a little perplexed by what you exactly want or expect. Do you think there is a single citation in the body of the List of Common Misconceptions page that will source the entire lede? I mean, there may well be, given the absolute preponderance of sources, but you'd be better served by seeking out the individual aspects of the lede that you find issue with. For example, if you are in some way unsatisfied with the statement about common misconceptions being linked to old wives tales in the lede, I recommend having a look through the article and checking out the sources on entries that could also be considered old wives tales. If you do the same for each individual aspect of the lede, you will find ample citation, and I suspect that in a RfC, the same result will be found. That said, this is the sort of dialectical that improves things! I'm sure the lede isn't perfect, and having multiple people think and argue about it is sure to result in some kind of synthesis. I'm afraid your section became a little bit buried on the Common Misconceptions talk page, and didn't get much attention, so again, by all means, feel free to get a RfC going!

Haha, User:WhatamIdoing has resolved the issue I had with the entries. I don't think it was a failure to read policy, but a failure to think through exactly how conventional wisdom could cause common misconceptions. Glad it's resolved.
