Revision as of 22:24, 30 April 2010
Hello there and welcome to HJ's talk page. If you're here because I left a message on your talk page, please reply there and leave {{Tb|"Your Username"|"Name of the section"}}
in a new section here but please leave a time stamp (~~~~~) so the bot can archive it!, I will endeavour to do the same for you unless you request otherwise, you're here to point me to a discussion elsewhere, or I know you're watching this page but I have been known to forget, so you might want to check back if you don't receive a timely response! If you have a question, ask me. If I know the answer, I'll tell you, if I don't, I'll find out, then we'll have both learned something! Above all, whatever I did, please know that I meant it in good faith and please keep it civil.
You have...
...mail. Email to be precise, I replied to your message. (I thought I'd create a new section and let the other one be archived) Btw, congrats on getting Lindsay Lohan up to GA. :) - JuneGloom07 Talk? 00:21, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- puts on best Monty Burns impression* Eeeeexcellent! I shall check it in a moment, I'm just prettifying my userpage (I think it lacks colour atm). I have a bot that archive it now- this page just gets too long too quickly to archive manually, but it fucked up my Roman numeral archiving system. :( Thanks for the congrats. It was a hard slog, but I'm glad it's done. I might have a look at her discogrpahy with a view to getting it up to FL- it's not too bad atm, but it's almost completely unsourced and it'll need a serious copyedit. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:34, 21 April 2010 (UTC)
- I've just sent you an email. :) - JuneGloom07 Talk? 15:02, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
- And another one. - JuneGloom07 Talk? 20:47, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
- Ping! "You have mail". - JuneGloom07 Talk? 22:30, 24 April 2010 (UTC)
- You don't have any mail from me this time, but do you still want to review Hello Goodbye (Ugly Betty) for me? - JuneGloom07 Talk? 00:23, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- I don't see why not. I'll have a look in the morning- I take it you've learned enough of my pet peeves to have it in good shape? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:47, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Everything should be okay. Let me know when you're online and I'll go nominate it. - JuneGloom07 Talk? 11:23, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- You're getting closer to WP:100. :) Anyway, are you free? - JuneGloom07 Talk? 21:15, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Yeah, sure. Go ahead and nominate it and I'll pick it up. I'm not really up to reviewing anything atm, but I'll certainly be able to make my initial comments and check the technical stuff. Let me know when you've added it to the list. :) HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:18, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Nominated and thank you. - JuneGloom07 Talk? 21:25, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- I replaced the ref you flagged up, but I'm unsure what to do about the second point you raised. - JuneGloom07 Talk? 00:01, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- Well it would be nice if you could find some material from cast/crew etc about the end of the series, but I just feel that the article as it is seems to mention that it's the last ever as an afterthought- for example, the lead says it's the last in the current series, but doesn't make it clear that it's the last ever episode. Any help? HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:09, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- I haven't forgotten about Hello Goodbye, just had a few distractions today. Made my first trips to both AN and ANI today, AN wasn't for anything interesting, just requesting some help with the AIV backlog. ANI was to see if there is anything to be done about a serial sockpuppeteer. Anything interesting happen to you today? - JuneGloom07 Talk? 21:54, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- Nothing "interesting", I've just been loitering. I spent a bit of time on the new account log earlier (I was bored and there was nothing interesting on my watchlist!) and I've been working on 2010 London Marathon- some gent has uploaded a load of photos to Flickr and freely licensed them all so I'm having a field day uploading them to Commons, trouble is there's about 20,000 of them! I also stumbled across a vandal creating a page with nothing but "4 and 6" copied and pasted a few hundred times and had to get a checkuser after he did it with three different accounts! I've been to AIV a few times today (the joy of having a watchlist like mine!) and it seemed busy- I saw your AN note and left another one. I think Xeno cleared it. Did you manage to find any stuff on the end of the series? It would go quite nicely in the article. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:04, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- I'm still having trouble finding anymore info about the episode, to be honest I don't think many people care about it. Like one of the critics said "Ugly Betty attempted to earn a place in TV history, but I fear their last episode will be quickly forgotten by the fans". It was no where near to getting as much press (or viewers) as the Friends finale. - JuneGloom07 Talk? 23:17, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- Sling that in then unless you think it's too negative-a-note on which to end it. I'll probably pass it in the morning anyway. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 23:22, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- I've already added it, plus a reaction to the axing by Vanessa Williams and I tweaked the lead too. - JuneGloom07 Talk? 23:25, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- Thank you for passing Hello Goodbye! :) - JuneGloom07 Talk? 00:34, 29 April 2010 (UTC)

RfA Thanks
![]()
More specifically, thank you for your support. You were very helpful in regards to the WT:RFA that was sparked and I wish you good luck with your own RfA. Thanks! ceranthor 15:23, 25 April 2010 (UTC)

- Well thank you- not least because its nice to receive thanks for my participation in a successful RfA for a change. I don't know exactly how helpful I was in the discussion, but I felt it needed saying and I didn't think it was fair that people were opposing over a guessed age. Evidently for the other 134 (myself included), the maturity of your contributions is what mattered. Have fun with your mop and be sure to whack lots of vandals with it :).

Move protection
Hmm, I guess that east718's move-protection admin script is dead... —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 01:00, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Must be. I expect it's due to whatever it was that buggered all the bots the other week, but having the TFA unprotected for an hour is not good- if it keeps up, sooner or later, someone'll take advantage. Thanks for your note. :) HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 01:03, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- I went to protect the queued TFAs, but Raul hasn't scheduled tomorrow's yet. Feel free to drop me a line if you need another protected (until you get your own mop, that is ;) —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 01:08, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Will do- are you usually on around midnight UTC then? Seems to be one of those weird "where the hell have all the admins gone" times of the day. Thanks for the support- it's very much appreciated ;) HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 01:11, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Normally, but I won't be tomorrow. No problem, you'll do great with the tools :) —Ed (talk • majestic titan) 01:13, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

ITN for 2010 London Marathon
Once again, very nice work - Dumelow (talk) 23:25, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, just noticed your RFA as well. I'll head over in the morning and add my support, I'm sure you'll be a great admin for the encyclopaedia! - Dumelow (talk) 23:29, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
Measurement system of the 2010 London Marathon
Hello HJ Mitchell,
First of all, contracts on your article about the 2010 London Marathon. It is good and complete. Secondly, as you realized quite rapidly, I added the metric system in the article. I saw you switched to put the imperial system first, mentioning the UK uses miles as primary measurement. In practice you are right: the UK in fact uses miles for distances and miles per hour for speed. However, officially, the UK does use the metric system. In addition, the rest of the world (US, Liberia and Myanmar excluded) uses the metric system. Hence, could you reconsider your modification and put the metric system first.
Thank you in advance, have a good day. Xionbox (talk) 00:27, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- Hello :). Thanks for your note, and thanks for the compliments, I enjoyed writing it. In my experience, the imperial measurements tend to be more commonly used in the UK, however, since the main article- London Marathon- puts the metric measures before the imperial, I'll defer to that for consistency. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 00:32, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Hey. Someone told me you were going to RfA. I took a look, and I feel very guilty about you being very critiziced. I feel you have done a good job, and you are very good editing. I would like to support you (y'know I can't), but I know you will pass it and best wishes for you as admin :-) Cheers. --Diego Grez let's talk 03:40, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
Sorry
Oops sorry. I was trying to make it easier so that people would recognize when they were born. I understand what you mean. CharlieJS13 (talk 19:01, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- It's OK- in some senses I prefer it your way, but the guideline says otherwise and it's better to keep things consistent :). Did you have a look at hotcat? Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 18:52, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
- I did yes, and I know what to do now! Thanks for the pointer. CharlieJS13 (talk) 20:51, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
AfD
Hi HJ Mitchell,
If you looked at the article for deletion discussion page for List of ice hockey players of Semitic descent, you can see that no consensus was reached and the article is no longer up for deletion. (It's listed under List_of_ice_hockey_players_of_Asian_descent, as the nominator grouped three related articles together.
So if it's okay with you, I'm going to remove that AfD tag again :D
Cheers,

Clegg's Religious Belief
From how he has described his religious beliefs, he sounds to me more of an agnostic than an atheist. He seems open to some kind of spiritual reality. I would be curious to hear your take on it. By the way, your edit in the "Beliefs" section reads much more cleanly than mine - good job! I am really interested to see if the Lib Dems can take out Labour and maybe even the Tories. I have a sneaking suspicion that there are a lot of voters that have never voted Lib Dem in the past for fear of wasting their vote. With the Lib Dems on 31% I am betting a lot of those same voters will vote yellow because it might count this time. I can't help but thinking that the polls are very soft on Lib Dem support. Is it actually possible that there could be a Prime Minister Clegg? Hmmm.... With this election as strange as it is, anything is possible! It will be an interesting 9 more days. Cheers mate - Take care! DaysOfFuturePassed (talk) 00:59, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
- Interesting. The problem with that, especially with Clegg being a living person is that either agnostic or atheist would require sourcing beyond shadow of a doubt- ie something along the lines of him giving an interview and pronouncing "I believe in god/I'm an agnostic/I'm an atheist" etc, rather like we handle sexuality. The main reason I reverted it though was the tone. I'm sure it wasn't supposed to sound like that, but we must avoid any appearance of judging him based on his religious beliefs (or lack thereof) which means we have to be very careful with our words.
- I'd love to see him become PM, but it's sadly unlikely, though we can hope for a hung parliament! Anyway, I hope that helps and feel free to raise any queries here or on Talk:Nick Clegg. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 01:12, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

- I just checked out [1]...I guess the transwiki is more complicated than either of us thought? — Scientizzle 17:46, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
- Follow-up: Wikipedia:Wikinews states
I guess I'll go ahead and delete the userified content now... Thanks for trying! — Scientizzle 17:48, 28 April 2010 (UTC)As noted at Wikipedia:Template messages/Sister projects#Wikinews, "Moving pages to Wikinews is not possible, for legal reasons. Copying material to Wikinews would relicense it under the CC-By license, which is incompatible with CC-By-SA and GFDL. However Wikinews articles can be moved to Wikipedia."

Oliver O'Grady
Hi. I was the one who updated the Oliver O'Grady page to include his current whereabouts. I didn't know it was a violation of the BLP policy to do that. Sorry. It most certainly wasn't vandalism - he is definitely in Dublin, and definitely did leave after the airing of the documentary (to assume coincidence, when evidence to the contrary exists, is a bit silly, but I understand that BLPs are a different breed). I thought the page could do with that information, as currently it is clearly incorrect. 217.91.140.27 (talk) 16:18, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
- Well as you've probably seen your edit was tagged with "possible BLP issue or vandalism". I don't think the edit was vandalism but it could be considered a BLP violation and we need to be especially careful with information on living people. I hope that helps :) HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:28, 29 April 2010 (UTC)
- I did see that, but I don't know how it could violate the BLP, as it's not accusing him of anything, other than simply clearing up his location. The linked article has photos of him where they say he is. Again, sorry if I did anything wrong :) 217.91.140.27 (talk) 10:53, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

- In regards to the oil spill, I was in the middle of adding it (added the size to the article first though, and then got a bit distracted). The World Expo one obviously should be put up, but the opening ceremony has not happened yet. -- tariqabjotu 00:23, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

BBC News GAN
Hi HJ Mitchell - I was just dropping you a message about the GA review you are conducting of BBC News. It has been over a month since there was a comment by either you or the nominator, and a ping by Wizardman has gone unanswered for over a week. As this article has been under review for over a month and a half, it's probably time to make a decision on this one :) Thanks for all of your work reviewing GAs, it's great to have dedicated reviewers!

- Indeed, much as I hate to fail an article, I've been meaning to get round to doing so for a while. I'll do it now while it's on my mind. :( Thanks for the poke. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 01:48, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
Done and I've left a note for the nominator. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 02:04, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the quick response! It's unfortunate when an article has to be failed, but sometimes it must be done :( Dana boomer (talk) 02:25, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

- Agreed. You've got 97 minutes to pass it and log it :)! HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 22:24, 30 April 2010 (UTC)

Re: Hey
I'm good how 'bout you? What you been up to? Of course, if I abandon it, and people add whatever the hell they want, the article will lose it's beautiful star, which will not happen, cause that's not how I roll. I want my work to continue being excellent and I will not allow its status to be demoted. Ooh, nice. I'll drop by later. Besides the latter, are you busy? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 18:44, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- It's always good to hear from ya. :) Yeah, a whole bunch of people that I know do that wiki gnome thing. Oh, okay ["I don't want to get into anything too heavy while my RfAs on"] I was just wondering. Nice work on the 2010 London Marathon article. Yeah, I hear that working on discographies are hard, that's why I've never attempted to work on them. Yeah, I hate the fact that people come here and do that sort of stuff. All the hard work one does and some idiot comes and just wants to trash it. Do these idiots not have anything better to do? -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 19:04, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- I was just wondering if you could review one of my nominations at GAN, but if you're busy, then forget it. Yeah, working on discographies are hard work, cause there's a lot of research to do, like finding out when the song/album charted or was released, etc. It's a shame they log in and just start vandalizing, giving us more problems. The fact that he "lost" weight eating Subway sandwiches and getting the pounds back, and people criticizing him for it. I just don't understand how people can come here, do their vandalism crap, and be proud of themselves. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 20:10, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
- "Jackie Jormp-Jomp" should be short and easy to do, and it'd be good for the elimination drive. "Floyd" is pretty long, so I wouldn't recommend doing that one. Yeah, we should block them so that they stop coming back, that's how I see it. Sure, some IPs do good, but they're really the ones who start the problem. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 20:34, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
