Your GA nomination of Ged Nash

The article Ged Nash you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Ged Nash for comments about the article, and Talk:Ged Nash/GA1 for the nomination. Well done! If the article is eligible to appear in the "Did you know" section of the Main Page, you can nominate it within the next seven days.

I did mean to comment again about ElectionsIreland.org, but forgot -- it's OK if you want to leave it in, but if you do have other sources that you can cite instead that might be better. Or if you're confident that further review would mean it can be considered fully reliable, that's fine too. I also wanted to say that if you nominate anything else and are looking for a reviewer, let me know; I'd be happy to review another of yours -- this one was painless! Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 17:18, 5 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Of course. I checked to see if I could find a county council source for the elections but regrettably a lot of their stuff isn't online from that era. Much appreciated re the further review, glad to have spared you the pain! ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 13:06, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bernie Moreno Edit/Undo

I hope that I'm putting this in the proper place, as I don't often respond to other Wiki users. Yesterday, I had changed something on Bernie Moreno's page, and in doing so, I made an inadvertent mistake. I changed the terminology of a particular word, but I also changed it in the context of a quote, and that was my error. However, you reverted both changes, noting that the word was used in the source. I wanted to stop by to note that the word was improperly used in the source. The women being discussed were not necessarily mothers, and the author had no way to know if hypothetical women were mothers or not. Therefore, the term that should be utilized is women, and that's why I changed it. I don't think that we should repeat the mistakes of a source. Jmg999 (talk) 18:58, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Jmg999:, sorry for the late response - got this notification and forgot totally. I'm not firmly set on the phrasing of "mother", mostly just saw the quote being changed and thought it'd be best to represent what the source says. Plus pretty much all of the terminology I've ever seen refers to the "mother's life" rather than the woman's life. For future reference, you'd be as well raising this on the article talk page though - other editors may have thoughts on it. Thanks, ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 17:45, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Good Morning, @Ser!,

Thank you for your response, and thank you for pointing me in the right direction. I agree w/ you that the term "mother" or "mother's life" is often used, but I think that it's a mistake made by the media, since they're assuming facts not in evidence. I'll change the term on Moreno's page again, and if anyone has issue, I'll make certain to discuss it on the page's talk page. Thanks, again! Jmg999 (talk) 18:18, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What do you mean "If this happen"?

Did I write something wrong on Peggy Flanagan's article that is not we are not to suppose write it?

How would you write it that is not if this happen? 50.91.26.176 (talk) 14:29, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. The issue wasn't with your writing, it's with putting content about "if X happens, Y will happen" in the lede; it just doesn't seem overly significant that it could happen. If she becomes governor then it probably will be, but until then it falls into WP:CRYSTAL territory IMO. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 14:34, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When do you think it would be a good time to put the edit back? 50.91.26.176 (talk) 20:34, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If Walz is elected and Flanagan is now officially in line to become governor, I'd say then. But this is only my opinion, so do feel free to raise this on the talk page if you disagree. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 20:43, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Who would be lieutenant governor if Peggy Flanagan was a governor? I was thinking Mohamud Noor. 50.91.26.176 (talk) 21:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid I'm not that familiar with Minnesota's politics, so your guess is as good as mine... ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 21:21, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator Elections: Call for Candidates

Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates

The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Call for candidates.

Here is the schedule:

October 8–14 - Candidate sign-up (we are here)
October 22–24 - Discussion phase
October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase

Please note the following:

The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
Prospective candidates are advised to become familar with the community's expectations of adminstrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
The process will have a one week call for candidates phase, a one week pause to set up SecurePoll, a three-day period of public discussion, followed by 7 days of no public discussion and a private vote using SecurePoll.
The outcomes of this process are identical to making requests for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA or administrator elections.
Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.

Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.

To avoid sending too many messages, this will be the last mass message sent about administrator elections. If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.

Administrator Elections: Discussion phase

Administrator Elections | Discussion phase

The discussion phase of the October 2024 administrator elections is officially open. As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:

October 22–24 - Discussion phase
October 25–31 - SecurePoll voting phase
November 1–? - Scrutineering phase

During October 22–24, we will be in the discussion phase. The candidate subpages will open to questions and comments from everyone, in the same style as a request for adminship. You may discuss the candidates at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/October 2024/Discussion phase.

On October 25, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote tallies cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's tally during the election. The suffrage requirements are different from those at RFA.

Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for an indeterminate amount of time, perhaps a week or two. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose). As this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").

Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation. Happy electing.

Bret Baier, info

Hi Ser!, since I am not that familiar with WP:ONUS, user FMSky "reverted" on Okt. 30, 2024 an important passage concerning Bret Baiers career, just by arguing "unnotable". I put the issue on the discussion page. Would you please have an eye on that? Thanks a lot. Peter Christian Riemann (talk) 11:43, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Peter Christian Riemann:, I see you've left a message on the article's talk page. Your best course of action would be to ping FMSky underneath it and get a discussion going about the content, where other editors can chime in. ser! ^{(chat to me - see my edits)} 16:38, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Website names

Hi Ser! Good work checking the candidates against Returning Officer websites. It's something to finalise between today, with nominations closing, and Monday, with an opportunity for withdrawals. ROs natiobally will probably publish their final lists early next week. A small observation on the references you added: Template:Cite web says that for the website parameter, "website: Title of website (when the website has a clear name, use that rather than the domain name)", so a title in these instances should probably be "Cork County Returning Officer", rather than "corkcountyreturningofficer.com".
