Are you interested in bringing Buhari under good article review. I already put a message on user Everking's page for help. The article will probably be edited heavily for the next few years and I am trying to make it NPOV and placed under good article status during the period.

I am currently adding the results and I will add a ref and cites after I finished putting all the information

The invalid for each question of the referendum are official results, so I do not know why you keep deleting them as it is official results from PEOGrenada. User:Kylekieran

This is the source, if you do not believe and you need to sign up or log in first to see the result. http://www.peogrenada.org/refsoftapp/PD/BillStatus

And also I am going to complete all the parishes elections stats later today, so do not delete them please and also it is all up to date due to 100% completed result courted. User:Kylekieran

Hello Number 57. There is a discussion going on about using which type of treemap for 2016 United States presidential election in each state articles. Please join the discussion, so the dispute can be resolved. Thank you. Ali 03:43, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I saw your comment here and am not convinced that ANI would solve the problem. The whole situation with China / Taiwan (/ PRC / ROC / do you include Hong Kong, Macau, Tibet in each article etc) article naming and scoping is inherently messy. There is a strong faction who believes that "China" = "PRC" and "Taiwan" = "ROC" in all contexts, but they generally aren't the people who curate niche articles about Chinese and Taiwanese politics, who in turn prefer finer conceptual distinction. ANI could pour water on the fire behaviorally, but will only put on the pressure cooker and not address the underlying content dispute. Deryck C. 12:46, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Deryck Chan: I'm not heading there straightaway, but there does seem to be an issue with a handful of editors refusing to accept that China and Taiwan are at those titles and using any opportunity to block bringing other articles in line with the established naming format for various sets of articles. Number 57 13:00, 7 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Count me into that lot if you must and it's not just a handful of editors who hold such opinion. I disagreed with the original move and have spoken out about several absurdities en.wp's article scoping has caused disconnection with other Wikimedia projects (e.g. 1, 2. While I accept that as a majority decision in line with Wikipedia policies, I don't see it as a binding precedent upon all other articles that refer to these states and geographical regions.

I think that our rapid-fire responses are making the talk page a little unfriendly for third parties. Would you think it was OK if I collapsed some of our back-and-forth and left just our key points uncollapsed? I wouldn't change anything, just put collapse templates around it. If you want me to just do it for my own comments, that's fine. You can respond here if you want. If you don't want to respond, feel free to delete this section from your talk page, and I won't touch anything you wrote. Homunq (࿓) 16:23, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Homunq: I don't think it's necessary. They aren't terribly long responses so aren't too much of a wall of text for people to wade through. I also think it's important for any other contributors to read the whole discussion before inputting otherwise it could end up being even more circular than it is at the moment. Number 57 16:28, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK. Cheers, Homunq (࿓) 16:29, 8 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Given that I know approaching nothing about the structure or division of responsibilities in amateur clubs in the 1950s, I can't be sure. Can't really tell from the sources whether his post was first-team coach, i.e. working with what he was given, or whether he had enough input to make him more of a head coach/manager. I'd guess he probably would have done, but it is only a guess. I'll reproduce the sources, see what you think. The (contemporary, national newspaper) Ilford reference says:

Beby is Ilford's first professional coach in 70 years. I'd say his present charges, on their 1–1 showing against F.A. Cup rivals Brentwood and Warley, give him plenty to work on. So, while Ilford secretary Jimmy Yeo wonders why the club's fine amenities fall to lure stars, Beby prepares not without optimism to lick his team into the form of their 1929 and 1930 predecessors, who won the Amateur Cup plus a score of other trophies.

The Faversham reference, which is a 50-years-ago piece in the local paper with quotes from the original, says:

A start-of-season pep talk by the secretary of Faversham Town Football Club prepared players and supporters for an exciting few games, 55 years ago. Sid Hadlow told the Faversham Times: "As one of the two amateur clubs in the Kent League, we know we are in for a hard time, but if coaching and training mean anything - and I think they do - and there is an all-out effort by everybody who has the club at heard, I feel we can put up a better show." ... The newspaper's sports reporters analysed the prospects for the 1954/55 season, noting that the former Gillingham and Leicester City goalie Jack Beby had been appointed as trainer and coach. He had been working for three years in Greece and although his time at Salters Lane was relatively short, it was noted there were already signs of better football. ... The Faversham Times noted that there were 30 players on Town's books. It added there was a "pressing need for full backs" and that the managers were hopeful of signing two in time for the first match kick-off.

Hope this helps... cheers, Struway2 (talk) 14:55, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Canvey Island F.C., you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Jeff King (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

This article is about the presidential election. Article on senate and house elections are separate. Did you even read the article? It says "general elections" because it refers to the 36 state assemblies and gubernatorial elections. There will be a separate article for the other elections. Did you change "United State presidential election" to "United States general election" even though other elections took part the same day? I think not. Stop moving the article because you think you know what title is best for the article.

Re: Nigerian general election, 2015, someone created a redirect link. Check previous Nigerian elections. They've been called "presidential" all the way to 1979. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Willybeez (talk • contribs) 00:12, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The United States presidential election, 2016, the United States Senate elections, 2016 and the United States House of Representatives elections, 2016 were held on the same day. They are separate articles. The template specifically asks what type of election the article is about — Preceding unsigned comment added by Willybeez (talk • contribs) 00:20, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

So you're telling me I'm going to fit the results of the house of reps and senate in an article that says type of election = presidential. General elections means 36 state Assemblies, 36 gubernatorial elections, senate elections, house elections, and the presidential elections. That is what "general" means. Well, I'm not changing it to "general" elections. Funny how all the examples you gave were all African countries with very low Wikipedia editors. The article on 2015 elections has no detail on the entire election. It just talks about the presidential election. I'm not going to just give one line explanation on the remaining elections. For example, "Democrats won 50 seats, Republican won 20 seats". No. I'm going to give a detailed exolana. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Willybeez (talk • contribs) 00:42, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Take a look at the United States Senate elections, 2016. I want to make a detailed article similar for the Nigerian senate elections. And I don't buy that "it's too large to fit in one article." What was done to other election articles could be done to the US as well. You could just say "Republicans won 50. Democrats won 20". But no, there's a detailed article on it. That's what I wanna do. Get it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Willybeez (talk • contribs) 01:27, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I'm Adi Rose, Match reporter, programme editor, chairman of the supporters group and Social Media guy at AFC Totton. I have access to all club records and Michael Gosney broke the record back in January 2016. I will also be updating the page with our current squad as myself and our Press Officer have agreed it would be good for the club itself to update the page, although many thanks for attempting to do the right thing! It is much appreciated. If you have any queries about this, please contact our chairman Wayne Mew via enquiries@afctotton.com

We are the source, we are the club lol StagsVoice2017 (talk) 00:33, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Okay leave it with me, the I will apply the source, please don't re-edit StagsVoice2017 (talk) 00:36, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but that's complete rubbish, it's clear you are just trolling this page and abusing your powers as an admin. You will be reported and the club may contact its solicitors over your abuse of power. How on earth you can GUESS whether a page will be updated or not is a disgrace and not up to you at all. You've been informed that the club has taken steps to ensure this page is and remains fully updated and you are just a nuisance to that. Re-instate the current squad as was updated today as you have no right to remove it as per Wiki guidelines - what you THINK isn't a guideline - the source was provided and you've removed perfectly good, sourced info for no real reason at all. It's people like you who should be blocked!!! StagsVoice2017 (talk) 16:49, 13 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Egyptian presidential election, 2022 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

Heads up, the author of this has removed the PROD. I think it should be AfD'd now. I cannot easily do that myself, as an IP (can't make the AfD page). 86.20.193.222 (talk) 02:17, 13 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

There's no need to be defensive. I enjoyed reading your article. I honestly thought it was a typo, so corrected it. It now appears that you're determined to maintain the error, which, make no mistake, it is.

'With regards to' is a mistake. Regards are good wishes.

Sorry, it's not an error. Have a look at this ("in regards to, which, according to our data, is used nearly twice as often as in regard to") or this ("But while some people continue to insist that using regards in place of regard is simply incorrect, the old distinction is not consistently borne out in real-world, 21st-century usage. Regards is commonly used both ways, both in edited writing and elsewhere.") Cheers, Number 57 16:42, 13 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
