A beer for you!

[edit]
I saw the post on RfC and your reply. I liked your short and sweet response, and thought you could use a beer after dealing with that. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 04:44, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@GeogSage, are you referring to the COVID one? TarnishedPathtalk 05:25, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Aye, although I'd imagine the Geography one probably calls for a beer as well. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 16:58, 17 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Christopher Mellon history template

[edit]

Hello,

I was trying to figure out something about the history template when I saw you added it (thanks for taking the time to do that)! I wanted to see if it is possible to include Articles for creation nominations in the article history, but am not seeing that in the Template:Article history documentation. Any idea if that is possible to throw into it? GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 04:39, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@GeogSage, no worries with that. I came accross the article with the shenangians on the drama board and since I've been doing a bit of work recently bringing articles to GA status I've been using the template in order to reduce talkpage clutter and so I'm familiar with its usage.
Regarding your question about AFC. The template doesn't currently support it but I'd think that it would be able to, but it would require editing of the template and my experience doing that is very small. Additionally, the template is protected. I'd suggest starting a discussion at Template talk:Article history. TarnishedPathtalk 04:54, 14 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The Signpost: 14 May 2025

[edit]

Dear TarnishedPath, The issue around DMY/MDY dates on Pope Leo XIV's article has been tabled at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard. I have not discarded the RfC due to controversy about whether or not that is appropriate. As you have been reasonably involved in this issue, this is letting you know that it is requested that you submit a summary of dispute on the DRN entry for this issue.
Thank you for time in the RfC and more broadly on this issue. JacobTheRox (talk) 19:44, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked consensus building

[edit]

We were working on a consensus which we now can't work on as you've shut down the discussion?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AGraham_Linehan#c-Lukewarmbeer-20250516170200-Firefangledfeathers-20250515145400?wprov=sfla1

Also you're accusing me of bludgeoning. So can you suggest to me how I'm supposed to deal with a discussion where I've proposed something and then people are replying to me, am I not allowed to reply back then? It feels a little disingenuous, and just a way to shut me down and the conversation down. Icecold (talk) 11:27, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
