Got it. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 14:25, 18 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While the news IPs have been blocked by Smalljim [2], could you revdel the vandalism done since 21 June 2024 [3]? Thanks. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 16:49, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fylindfotberserk. Done ✅. It’s good that others (Ae245, ToadetteEdit, Jdcomix and Smalljim) have caught this latest incident of long-term harrassment. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 17:59, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

. And thanks to @Ae245, ToadetteEdit, and Jdcomix:. Right now, I'm scanning comments @Sitush's talk page. I believe I've seen them there before. Making a list. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 18:05, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, yes, Sitush is very active on India-related pages. It’ll be a surprise if they haven’t run up against this chap. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 18:11, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As of 28 June 2024, we have assessed 100% of all articles with a project banner.

(Some new and additional article talk pages may still require a banner however)

Thanks

A very big Thank you to all the editors who labour away quietly and help make this WikiProject what it is; no edit goes unnoticed.

To members who have added suggestions to the ToDo list at Yorkshire Portal.

To the football and rugby editors who have done sterling work in keeping abreast of the top clubs.

To all the WikiProject Yorkshire editors who have been busy on vandal patrol at watchlist.

Great!

Aims

After discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire in April 2008.

Specific aims for the project are:-

To complete tagging and assessment of all Yorkshire related articles (See below)
To recruit more active editors (See Member News)
To bring our top level article Yorkshire up to Featured article status
To bring all other top priority articles (currently 15 with 2 at FA) to at least Good article status
To set up a weekly or monthly selected article improvement drive (See this month's feature below)
To produce a regular news letter for circulation to members

and apropos of the above a 2010 New Year article improvement drive/collaboration is being organised.

Priority Articles

The top priority articles that have been identified to date are as follows -

Bradford • Doncaster • East Riding of Yorkshire • Henry Moore • Kingston upon Hull • Leeds • Northern England • North Yorkshire • Ripon • Sheffield • South Yorkshire • Wakefield • West Yorkshire • William Wilberforce • York • Yorkshire • Yorkshire and the Humber

The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.

General Election

This month will see the General Election take place with a raft of boundary changes for the constituencies, thanks to the boundary commission review. A lot of work has been done on updating the constituency articles to cover the changes and new articles created for the new constituencies. Once results are in there will be changes to make to all of the candidate articles to show their new status as MP or not as the case may be. There will also be changes to make to the settlement articles to show the new MP and may be change the constituency if the boundary changes affect it.

Please nominate future articles for improvement at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Yorkshire.

Please bear in mind...

The project is subscribed to a clean-up listing which lists articles tagged with various clean-up tags that need attention. The listing is refreshed by a bot on a regular basis.

Monitoring is essential
Use the watchlist to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.

Moves
Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational. Otherwise the archives, to-do lists, assessment comments and GA reviews get lost and the image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR. You will also have to check that the Commons link is set correctly.

Comments, questions and suggestions about this, or any, issue of the newsletter are always welcome and can be made by pressing the feedback button below...

[edit]

do you know the history of this? DayGG (talk) 11:43, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DayGG. Sure, I can see there has been much disruption to the article today. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 11:45, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

where are u from it u don't mind DayGG (talk) 11:47, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DayGG. I am from York in England but that is not relevant on Wikipedia. I see you have blanked the infobox of the article, I will give you a warning for that. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 11:50, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

why post that when u don't know anything about it DayGG (talk) 11:55, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DayGG. You are new here and I see that you don’t understand how Wikipedia works. Let me explain. Wikipedia is based on reliable sources. Editors summarise what has been written - by people who do know something about it - in reliable sources.

Your two edits to Tui Manu'a have been to blank the infobox and the leading paragraph. That degrades the article and is widely seen on Wikipedia as vandalism. I recommend that you start talking about improvements to the article on the article talk page. -- Malcolmxl5 (talk) 12:10, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would be out of place in a serious thread, but...
