The '''Wikipedia Asian Month Edit-a-thon @ The Met''' will be hosted at the Metropolitan Museum of Art ↗ on '''Saturday November 16, 2019''' in the Bonnie Sacerdote Classroom, Ruth and Harold D. Uris Center for Education (81st Street entrance) at The Met Fifth Avenue in New York City.

The museum is excited to work with Wikipedia Asian Month ↗ for the potential to seed new articles about Asian artworks, artwork types, and art traditions, from any part of Asia ↗. These can be illustrated with thousands of its recently-released images of public domain artworks available for Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons from the museum’s collection spanning 5,000 years of art. The event is an opportunity for Wikimedia communities to engage The Met's diverse Asian collections onsite and remotely. Asia Art Archive will host a sister event in Hong Kong next week.

Titus Aristo ↗



Hi! I saw that you created this page and linked it to d:Q7002147 ↗ on Wikidata, for which you have my thanks. It seems however, from various others sources displayed in the bottom of the Wikidata item, that his name was in fact ''Titius Aristo'' — Titius being thus a nomen and not a praenomen. Smith's Dictionnary might be either wrong or outdated on the question. Would you consider changing the name of the page ? Cheers, --Jahl de Vautban (talk) 07:33, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Arete and Timocrates



Hi! Sorry for bothering you. In Arete (daughter of Dionysius) ↗ you wrote that Arete married a Timocrates and I am fine with it. ;) I have some doubts about the wikilink to Timocrates of Syracuse ↗. Are you sure that we are talking about the same person?

Arete's husband is in Plutarch (''Dion'', 21, 3 ↗).

Timocrates of Syracuse is in Xenophon (''Hellenica'', 7, 4, 12 ↗).

But apart some obvious coincidences, I can't find any conclusive reason to establish that they are the same person... Thank you for your concern. --Pequod76 (talk-ita.esp.eng) 18:13, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Hi Wiki-Yorkers,

We are reaching out as part of our community-building efforts at Wikimedia NYC ↗. Our regional group is engaged in a strategic planning process to sharpen our strategy for the next three years, and we would like your input. Given your connection to us and your experience with Wikimedia NYC, I would be grateful if you would be willing to share some of your perspectives and insights as we think about our next chapter.

Attached is an anonymous survey ↗, which will remain active until February 28. Responses will go directly to Barretto Consulting and the Wikimedia NYC board will receive responses in aggregate and to identify cross-cutting themes. Please take some time to answer it and share your thoughts with us.

Proposed deletion ↗ of :Archidameia ↗


left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The article :Archidameia ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''(talk page) #2 and #3 are the same person, who already has an article (Archidamia ↗), while #1 is fictional and only a minor character in the myth of Aristomenes ↗. This page therefore has no use as a list/disambiguation and should be deleted.'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons ↗.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the article's talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, the speedy deletion ↗ process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> Avilich (talk) 15:17, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

Possible misuse of Rollback privileges to revert non-vandalism



Hey there,

I noticed that you used your rollback privileges to revert my redirect of Antisthenes (Heraclitean) ↗ to Heraclitus ↗. As WP:ROLLBACK ↗ indicates, you really shouldn't use rollback to revert changes that aren't obvious vandalism, and as I explained why I redirected the page in my edit summary, you should have seen that my changes weren't vandalism. If you disagree with the reasoning I gave why that philosopher does not merit their own page, you're welcome to discuss on that page's talk page ↗. &#32;- car chasm (talk) 00:58, 9 March 2022 (UTC)

Nomination of :Antisthenes (Heraclitean) ↗ for deletion


<div class="afd-notice">
<div class="floatleft" style="margin-bottom:0">48px|alt=|link= ↗</div>A discussion is taking place as to whether the article ''':Antisthenes (Heraclitean) ↗''' is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines ↗ or whether it should be deleted ↗.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Antisthenes (Heraclitean) ↗ until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.

Proposed deletion ↗ of :Alcander ↗


left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The article :Alcander ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''Non-notable both as a warrior and a name. Also, Alcander (mythology) ↗ exists, and should be placed at this title instead.'''</blockquote>

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons ↗.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the article's talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, the speedy deletion ↗ process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 03:25, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

Aulus Cornelius Arvina



Hi there! Looking over your addition at Cornelia gens ↗, and then the stub article you just wrote ↗, I began to suspect that he might be the same person as the dictator of 322. Checking Broughton, I find that this seems to be the case, and I believe it also says this in Aulus Cornelius Cossus Arvina ↗. Unless there is some reason to believe that they were ''not'' the same person, I suggest merging your article into the larger one. Even though most of the contents are probably already covered, I note that said article is a bit wall-of-texty, and it could use more sources. Livy's account of his career is essential, of course, but he is probably mentioned by other Roman writers, and clearly appears more than once in Broughton (I can add these citations if you don't have that), and evidently the ''DGRBM''. Do you agree with merging these two articles? P Aculeius (talk) 02:42, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Looking at the main article again, I decided to go ahead and fix a few things, including the citations, and wound up spending a few hours cleaning up and improving it. I included both of the modern sources you cited for the new stub, so everything should be covered. If you agree, I'd go ahead and mark the stub merged, and redirect the title to the main article about Arvina (I note, I have called him "Cossus" throughout the article, but "Arvina" would do just as well). It could still use more modern sources, but I think it is much improved. I can see why you thought he was a separate man: the ''DGRBM'' entry for "Arvina" treats them as such, and does not suggest they might be identical, as it sometimes does in similar instances. But I would trust Broughton here, as he was looking for just this sort of thing, and consulted experts on the subject (which, sadly, are beyond my reach). P Aculeius (talk) 06:55, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

:Thanks so much for this! And yes, I concur with everything above. I had a suspicion they might be the same but didn't dig into it very far, as I couldn't find much one way or the other. And yes, I treated them as same because the DGRBM did. Ford MF (talk) 01:47, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

Title for Gnaeus Genucius article



I realize you're working on individual Genucii, and putting a lot of effort into it. But I would like to suggest that filiations don't belong in article titles, particularly when there are better ways to disambiguate. That's what I was trying to get at when I changed your link to "Gnaeus Genucius (historian)" before the article existed. You were probably already working on it at the time, which would explain why you changed it back. But filiations are not normally used this way; in fact it is likely that a number of Gnaei Genucii would share the same filiation. Preferably the year of highest office would be used for politicians, though in this case we don't have a certain year. "Gnaeus Genucius (praetor circa 70 BC)" would be acceptable and preferable to the current title; but in this case he's also described as the author of a significant history, unlike the various other Genucii who might have been praetor in one year or another. So "Gnaeus Genucius (historian)" seems like an optimal title. Since you just wrote the article, I did not want to move it without consulting you first. P Aculeius (talk) 17:30, 1 January 2025 (UTC)

:Fair, and thanks! Is there a style guide for these conventions you describe here? Ford MF (talk) 17:34, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
:Moved. Ford MF (talk) 17:39, 1 January 2025 (UTC)
::There ''is'' a guide somewhere or other that says that year of highest office or most notable feature are the best ways of disambiguating otherwise homonymous Romans. It shouldn't be taken as a strict rule, but given that filiations are not widely understood outside of classics, and some editors don't like having them at all, they don't seem like a good thing to put in article titles when there are easier ways of disambiguating.

Publius Betilienus Bassus and citation template



After working to update the article on the Betiliena gens ↗, I clicked on the link to your new article on Publius Betilienus Bassus ↗, and was pleased to find a discussion of whether he could have been the same person put to death by Caligula, along with the mention of Betilienus Capito, described as his father—something I only became aware of shortly before finishing my updates, when checking to see which sources belonged to which person. Evidently the sources had been mixed up somehow!

Anyway, I note that you used the DGRBM template to cite the Betilienus Bassus article from the ''Dictionary of Greek and Roman Biography and Mythology''. All well and good, as far as citing it goes; I did so myself for the persons mentioned in it. But this specific template creates a notice on pages that the articles "incorporate text" from the DGRBM—something that I have abandoned doing, in most instances, in part because once other people decide to edit the text of the article, it becomes impossible to tell what language belongs to the authors of the DGRBM (unless it's quoted), and what is the work of Wikipedians.

None of your article is quoted from the DGRBM article, as far as I can tell; it doesn't incorporate any of its language, even though it's quite proper to cite it or even link to it. I think maybe you want this template ↗, which is for citing the encyclopedia without attributing any particular text to it. Admittedly I don't use it myself—I prefer not to use citation templates, at least in Greek and Roman articles, since they tend to prescribe a certain format that I don't like to use, and also I find that templates make the text harder to read when editing articles. But if you're going to use a template, this one avoids giving the impression that the article includes unidentified snippets of text from that encyclopedia. I'd have substituted it myself, but I wasn't sure where you'd want it to go, so I thought I'd leave a message here and let you decide.

Thanks for the article, and have a happy new year! P Aculeius (talk) 02:03, 31 December 2025 (UTC)

:Thank you for the feedback, and happy near year to you as well! I see what you're saying, but I don't share your feelings about templates.
:I agree that inline citation templates make articles hard to read, but, imho, easier to write, certainly when it comes to things like journal or encyclopedia citations. And broadly speaking the articles I write are those that see *extremely few* edits -- I've been writing articles from the DGRBM for close to 20 years now, and I can still go back to the beginning and see articles in fundamentally identical shape to what I first wrote, so I feel comfortable preferencing the ergonomics of me, the original writer. I might feel differently if I was writing articles about pop music stars.
:Second, I see why you might object to the DGRBM template, but idk, it just doesn't stress me out. The situation of "once other people decide to edit the text of the article, it becomes impossible to tell what language belongs to the authors of the DGRBM (unless it's quoted), and what is the work of Wikipedians" is -- well, I don't disagree, but I guess I don't see why it's bad. I don't get why it would be important to do that, but also, if it ''is'' important, it should be easy to do by comparing with the linked article.
:Also I feel like objecting to it being "impossible to tell what language belongs to the authors of the DGRBM (unless it's quoted), and what is the work of Wikipedians" seems broadly like an argument against the existence of that template, not any individual editor's usage of it, and feels like an argument for another forum. (And I guess I have a similar feeling about the former argument against citation templates as well.)
:The article belongs to the project though, and not to me, so you as an editor are free to replace my usage of one DGRBM template with another, though if this were to be a broad program you'd embark on with other users of that template, I'd suggest that for bot or bot-like edits of that nature, it'd be best to put out a proposal for that first, in a space where interested parties can comment, and solicit consensus, before executing on it.
:I hope these objections will not read as combative. After doing this so long, I'm delighted when anyone has anything at all to say about my work, and I genuinely, sincerely do appreciate this feedback. Ford MF (talk) 16:53, 1 January 2026 (UTC)
::While I appreciate it is easier to make articles with what are essentially general references (WP:GENREF ↗: {{tq| citation to a reliable source that supports content, but is not linked to any particular text in the article through an inline citation}}), maintaining text-source integrity (WP:TSI ↗) is important for the encyclopaedia. It is necessary so that editors can determine what claims are supported by what sources. Indeed, the use of general references for certain types of material is not consistent with Wikipedia's verifiability policy, which {{tq|requires inline citations for any material challenged or likely to be challenged, and for all quotations, anywhere in article space}} (WP:REF ↗; Wikipedia talk:Citing sources/FAQ ↗). Ifly6 (talk) 21:10, 1 January 2026 (UTC)
:::<nods>
:::Sounds like one or both of you want to start developing a consensus argument for deleting that template then. Ford MF (talk) 22:53, 1 January 2026 (UTC)
:::Also is this a broad generality you would like me to acknowledge, or are you trying to highlight something that I've written that you feel like is insufficiently sourced? If it's the latter could you be more specific about where the problem is so I can take a look? Ford MF (talk) 22:56, 1 January 2026 (UTC)
::::It's not that the template serves no useful purpose, at least in very short articles. But once upon a time it was common to import large sections—or whole articles—from reference works in the public domain, like the 1911 ''Encyclopædia Britannica'' or the DGRBM. Which helped build up our content in specialist areas, especially when the material being cited wasn't likely to go out of date. But now we have stricter citation requirements, and most of our articles have inline citations for just about everything that needs a citation. And it's good to be able to attribute specific language to the sources it comes from, otherwise nobody knows it's being quoted. A little notice at the bottom of the article that ''some'' text is quoted—but no indication of ''which'' text—from a particular source, is undesirable IMO.
::::I used to lean heavily on the text of the DGRBM, since the prose is well-written, concise, and often—at least in short passages—difficult to improve on or reword without considerable thought. But when I began to notice that articles I had been writing in this manner were being reworded without notice, it became clear that one could no longer tell what came from where, depriving the original source of proper attribution, and making it look as if it were cited for things it didn't say, even in summary or paraphrase. That seems problematic, so when I run into my old articles with this template, I look for passages that I originally quoted ''verbatim'' and replace them, except when the specific language is better as an identified quotation. Once I'm certain that there are no more unattributed quotes, I delete the template, having cited each passage individually instead of relying on a general reference.
::::There's no problem with having general references, but they shouldn't state that text from the source is incorporated into the article if it isn't, hence my suggestion to use the other template. If the text is still there unaltered, or you can't tell what text is from the source and what is someone else's work, then not using quotation marks and inline citations makes parsing the text confusing. I think readers should be able to tell whether a particular passage is quoted from a source, or simply supported by it. That said, I don't feel the need to go through and replace templates like this in articles I didn't write, and in which I can't tell what's probably an unattributed quotation. I was merely making a suggestion once I realized that none the article that brought me here appeared to incorporate any text from the source, making the statement that it does a bit misleading. P Aculeius (talk) 04:43, 2 January 2026 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't say (assuming things are done conscientiously) that there is anything to object to, other than the fact that general references ''do not'' allow for editors to easily assess text-source integrity. Editors care a lot about TSI because everything we do is supposed to be sourced.
::::Indeed if there are no in-line citations, I would think almost everyone would simply assume the statement is ''unsourced''; indeed there is no difference under the policies between an unsourced statement and a sourced statement without an in-line citation when it comes to a content dispute. Both can be removed under WP:VER ↗.
::::But refocusing on the actionable, I think (and I am sure Aculeius will correct me if I am wrong) we are both urging you to cite DGRBM in-line rather than just tossing the {{tq|This article incorporates text from a publication now in the public domain}} line in at the bottom. Ifly6 (talk) 05:03, 2 January 2026 (UTC)
:::::You ''probably'' already know this, but just in case you didn't, there are two ''different'' DGRBM templates, both of which allow you to cite specific articles by author, volume, page, and title; but one of them—the original, I think—automatically adds the "this article incorporates text from..." line at the bottom of the page. The other—I think newer, and which I only just discovered—allows you to cite the articles as before, but without the "incorporates text" line, which I think is preferable, because text incorporated into an article without quotation marks can get completely lost or become unrecognizable as people edit it. This is the reason why I no longer use the text of the original, unless it's just so perfectly worded that it would be a shame not to use it, and then I use quotation marks or block quotes. Since the article I mentioned at the beginning doesn't incorporate any text from the original source, it seems confusing to use a citation template stating that it does, when there's a nearly identical alternative that doesn't include that. P Aculeius (talk) 16:40, 2 January 2026 (UTC)
::::::I think it comes from analogy to the {{t|Cite EB1911}} and {{t|EB1911}} templates which do essentially the same thing except also having (or not having) the {{tq|this article incorporates}} prefix. In both cases I think we should make between the {{tq|this article incorporates}} templates except where the article really was just copied wholesale from the relevant source. In general both sources are also very outdated and newer sources should be preferred, eg ''PIR''{{sup|2}}. Ifly6 (talk) 19:15, 2 January 2026 (UTC)

Proposed deletion ↗ of :Dart (character) ↗


left|link=|alt=Notice|48px| ↗

The article :Dart (character) ↗ has been proposed for deletion ↗&#32;because of the following concern:
<blockquote>'''No indication of stand-alone notability, no viable merged target that I can see either. Entire article is a collection of non-notable Image Comics characters with the same name.'''</blockquote>

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary ↗ or on the article's talk page ↗.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{Tlc|proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process ↗, but other deletion process ↗es exist. In particular, articles for deletion ↗ allows discussion to reach consensus ↗ for deletion based on established criteria ↗.

If the proposed deletion has already been carried out, you may request undeletion ↗ of the article at any time.<!-- Template:Proposed deletion notify --> Kung Fu Man (talk) 13:44, 10 July 2026 (UTC)
