Keystone PA

Sorry to revert your change on List of political parties in the United States but the Keystone Party of Pennsylvania has ballot access per this article

https://www.witf.org/2022/08/01/third-party-candidates-file-to-run-for-pa-governor-senate/

Scu ba (talk) 00:40, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Scu ba: You are incorrect. Ballot access for the party means that they can place candidates on the ballot without having to collect signatures. They had to collect signatures for each candidate. Only the Republicans and Democrats have this in Pennsylvania. 15% of voters registered with the party is required. 25stargeneral (talk) 00:46, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@25stargeneral I see, sorry I misunderstood that. Thanks for clarifying! Scu ba (talk) 00:47, 22 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question re image legend

Sorry to bother you with this, but I looked at usages of File:Forms of government 2021.svg, used in several WP articles and where you are listed as the most recent editor of the image file, and the usages I looked at are missing the legend. I see that the {{Legend}} template needs specific colors to be identified and I am unsure of that info from looking at the Legend as rendered on the image page. Do you know how I could find out what specific colors are used in the image and in the Legend section of the image file page? Do you know what the customary method of creating image-specific legends for images with multiple appearances is in WP (maybe create a wrapper template using the image file name)? I probably knew that at one time but, if I did, I've forgotten it. Thanks for any help. Wtmitchell (talk) (earlier Boracay Bill) 01:17, 26 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistencies in four races

Howdy. Maybe you & @Steven Walling: can work out a compromise, concerning the four uncalled US state (Oregon, Alaska, Arizona, Nevada) governor races & whether or not to 'bold' leading votes/percentage. GoodDay (talk) 01:52, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the ping. IMO the purpose of the bolding is clarity for readers by making the infoboxes easier to scan. Even when races are still underway, quickly showing who is in the lead is helpful. Steven Walling • talk 02:00, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2024 Run

Would it be better to put 2024 underneath the Post-presidency (2021–present) section where it was originally was?

Regarding the Rashad al-Alimi article

Linking "Chairman" to "President of Yemen" implies that they are the same. You may not think it is a big deal, but then, what was wrong with my edit? All it did was clarify. Also, the "Disputed by Mahdi al-Mashat" footnote makes it sound like al-Mashat claims to be the chairman of the PLC, which is not true. Kornatice (talk) 03:32, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kornatice. In the future, when you have a content issue, be sure to use the article talk page. The Chairman of the PLC is indeed referred to by many sources as being essentially the same as the president, and he does carry out all the functions of the head of state. The PLC was created as a concession to warring factions but the other members have little power. Mahdi al-Mashat does claim to be the head of state of Yemen. I will add (Supreme Political Council) to clarify, just as it is in the footer. 25stargeneral (talk) 03:35, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That may be the case, but formally, the Presidential Leadership Council as a whole is the presidency. Whether or not al-Alimi holds most of the power is irrelevant because legally, he is not president. My clarification made this clear.

Seperately, adding the "(Supreme Political Council)" to the infobox note is a good solution to that issue. Kornatice (talk) 03:42, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we're not saying he is the president. It says "Chairman", we're just talking about a piped link to the President of Yemen article, which has been reworked slightly to say that the PLC has the powers of the president, but its chairman is the head of state. What matters is that the chairman is the head of state, and that's the correct article for the head of state. It isn't worth renaming the article because it's just a temporary structure. You will see on Yemeni government websites that even they treat it this way [1]. 25stargeneral (talk) 03:51, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't dispute that he is "head of state", only that he is "president". And I certainly don't propose renaming the "President of Yemen" article or anything like that, although it should clarify that al-Alimi is not the holder of that office, but the chairman of a body that exercises its powers, at least officially. As for al-Alimi's article, why should "chairman" link to president when it is easy enough to add a clarifying sentence that explains their relationship?

Your Yemeni government website is interesting, because it refers to him as both "The President", and, right next to that, the "President of the Presidential Leadership Council". It does seem to recognize a difference. Kornatice (talk) 03:59, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The biographical article is not really the place to explain the government structure. That's outside the scope. It should be explained on the government articles. I'd suggest adding clarifying language to the President of Yemen article noting that while the chairman is the head of state (what the article and infobox are ultimately about), executive power is shared by either the PLC or the SPC, depending on which government you're talking about. As for the bio article, we should be able to have a simple link to the head of state article where all this is explained. 25stargeneral (talk) 04:01, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I guess that is fair enough, but one fragment of a sentence is too much explanation of government structure? Your ideas for the "President of Yemen" article are good, but it is best just to clarify in al-Alimi's article itself. At least change the link from the word "chairman" from "President of Yemen" to "List of heads of state of Yemen". Kornatice (talk) 04:08, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

So what we have here is a choice between a few options:

Option 1: Link "chairman" to the article "President of Yemen" in both the infobox and lead. (your preference)

Option 2: Do not link either instance of "chairman", and append a short note explaining the relationship between al-Alimi's office and the presidency. (my preference)

Option 1 is not acceptable because the chairmanship of the Presidential Leadership Council is not the presidency. Formally, the PLC is the presidency. It would make more sense to link "Presidential Leadership Council" to "President of Yemen" than it does to link "chairman" to that page. You say that linking "chairman" to "President of Yemen" does not imply they are the same, but it does. You also say that the "President of Yemen" article is the article for the head of state of Yemen, regardless of title. That is not true; if that was the case, why would articles like "Imams of Yemen" exist separately? They were heads of state too.

Your argument against Option 2 was that al-Alimi's article is not the place to explain government structure, and that even my short explanation was too much. While I do not agree, if you insist upon this point I will agree to the following, additional solution:

Option 3: Do not link either instance of "chairman", and do not add any note.

After all, there's no reason why al-Alimi's article has to have a link to "President of Yemen" anyway, since he is not the holder of that office. It is better to have no link than one that is misleading.

So, what are your thoughts on these options? Do you have any additional arguments? Do you still object to Option 2? Do you object to Option 3? Kornatice (talk) 06:24, 23 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Eritrea

I don't dispute calling the gov't totalitarian. I made that edit to separate two issues (ethnic/religious demographics and calling the gov't totalitarian). The demographic questions have been an issue of contention, and were finally resolved after a couple RFCs (see talk at Demographics of Eritrea for some context), and I really didn't want to wade back into all that by getting it tangled up with an entirely separate question of whether the article should call Eritrea totalitarian in wikivoice. Hence my first edit to restore consensus around demographics, and then my second to not revert the edit removing the totalitarian description. I have no intention of reverting your edit.

Horn of Africa

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently been editing the Horn of Africa (defined as including Ethiopia, Somalia, Eritrea, Djibouti, and adjoining areas if involved in related disputes) which has been designated a contentious topic. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;

comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;

follow editorial and behavioural best practice;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Hi, @25stargeneral, I appreciate that you appear to have a passion for the subject at hand at the article referred to above, and I recognise that you edit in good faith (although I think you may possibly have developed a partiality in respect of the subject at hand), but I ask you respectfully and in the spirit of collegiality not to be rude or leave messages for me which could be construed as bullying. My edits to that article have been, like all my others, done in good faith and certainly improve the article. I have taken some time and efort to ensure this. I have discussed most edits in advance and on the odd occasion I have not with a small edit I have made it clear that WP:BRD applies. You and any other editor are at liberty to revert. There is literaly no question of edit-warring. If you feel it appropriate, you may follow on as per WP edit warring guidance; and indeed any other guidance you may feel relevant. In the meantime, the article Talk page is not the place for such as discussion and I do not wish to enter further into the subject. I may continue to make small improvements to the article, notably to remove what seems to me to be occasional political bias. All the best, Emmentalist (talk) 12:44, 28 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Italian PM portrait

The exact picture was used when she visited the Italian base in Iraq and it is also used on the Italian page. I believe it can be regarded as an "official portrait". VosleCap (talk) 11:48, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@VosleCap: Please look at the source. It is not a portrait photograph. It is a still frame taken from a video of her speaking. It is not uncommon for official sources to end up using whatever image we put into a Wikipedia article, that doesn’t mean anything. A Wikipedia editor is the one who created this particular image, by choosing a frame from the video. 25stargeneral (talk) 11:52, 5 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give 2023 Sudanese Armed Forces-Rapid Support Forces confrontation a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into 2023 Sudan clashes. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. Panam2014 (talk) 10:51, 16 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Warning RE: move warring

Hi. Why are you move warring, twice, 2023 Sudan clashes over 2023 Sudanese clashes? Both L'Mainerque and TankDude2000 have provided similar reasoning—Demonym and All of the other wars involving Sudan on wikipedia have “Sudanese” instead “Sudan”. For example: First Sudanese Civil War, Second Sudanese Civil War, respectively—which your reply does not address.

That reply, rather, seems to consist of: This was already discussed and is incorrect. Please don't move without further discussion. Well, where is that previous discussion? Why was it not linked in the summary, then, if it indeed exists as such? This falls short and is sanctionable behaviour. If applicable, please reflect on the essay Wikipedia:Don't revert due solely to "no consensus" and act on the basis substantive reasoning only (i.e. ones that are responsive to the points that actually being raised, rather than deferring elsewhere, somewhere, etc.). Thanks. El_C 02:57, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

About that, though: please use don't use atop/abot for RM closes — use RM top/RM bottom + RMnac.

He has led the Tatmadaw (military), an independent branch of government, as the commander-in-chief of Defence Services since March 2011" do you recommend changing Tatmadaw (military) to Tatmadaw (armed forces)? Thank you for the best recommendations. If I have more questions with whether my edits are in line with Wikipedia's Manual of Style guidelines. If I have more questions I will ask here if that's okay with you. Thank you! KhantWiki (talk) 10:58, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for asking. You can change military to armed forces if you want. Just remember links and capitalization are meant to be used sparingly and there are guidelines for those. If you have a source for His Excellency you can add that as well. 25stargeneral (talk) 23:49, 10 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What source should I use for His Excellency? And can I do that without any sources or sources are needed? If so which sources? Thank you for your answer on changing military to armed forces. Also do you recommend adding his List featured on a TIME Magazine, Min Aung Hlaing - The 100 Most Influential People of 2023. "In 2023, Min Aung Hlaing was featured on TIME Magazine's list of the '100 Most Influential People of 2023.' The acknowledgment highlighted his commanding presence during Myanmar’s Armed Forces Day parade on March 27, 2023, emphasizing his control over the nation since the February 2021 coup d'état. Despite recognition of his influence, controversies surround his tenure, including a criticized campaign against pro-democracy rebels and allegations of involvement in significant humanitarian concerns."

I don't think him being in the TIME 100 is lead-worthy, I'm going to move that further down. Also you did not provide a source for His Excellency so I'm going to remove that. 25stargeneral (talk) 23:14, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright. Thank you for your reply. If I have more questions on articles that I would like to improve, I would further ask here. It's better to ask you through here than to do edit without asking on what has to be done on Min Aung Hlaing's article or just anyone. By the way, Is this one accepted as a source for "His Excellency"? https://www.mfaic.gov.kh/posts/2023-08-22-Press-Release-Congratulatory-Message-of-His-Excellency-Senior-General-Min-Aung-Hlaing--Prime-Minister-of-the-Repub-22-43-29

KhantWiki (talk) 10:56, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now I found a source and provided a source for "His Excellency". Thanks for your clarification. More will be improved by me in the future. KhantWiki (talk) 12:22, 14 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'll incorporate them into the listings above.
