Thanks, GauchoDude (talk) 23:24, 3 February 2017 (UTC) I have a question about languages used on pages.Hi Safiel! Thanks for the contact. This site is very extensive and complicated so I have been hesitant to do much editing for fear of breaking something. I was editing a page about a Japanese actress that I saw in a movie, today. The URL says https://en.wikipedia.org/... so I thought that it was logical to expect to see everything in English, but there were some links and text in Japanese and I wondered where to find the policy on that. I deleted a link to a Japanese site (which I know can be recovered, if necessary) but I don't know if I did the wrong thing. Actually, I replaced it with an English link that I got from the movie's Wiki page. It seems to me that this actress could have a Japanese language page - and, in fact she does. Is there a Wikipedia policy about this or what is the best practice? BTW: this is the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sumire_(model,_born_1990) danindenver (talk) 01:12, 5 March 2017 (UTC)
Diff [1]Hello. OMA is not the same as IMO. That redirection is not correct. Thank you. RomanLier (talk) 02:09, 6 March 2017 (UTC) Noel Francisco expansionThank you!! :) I'll keep an eye out for a .gov freebie picture. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:58, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
Plagiarism allegationWhen you created the biography section on the Noel Francisco page, you blatantly plagiarized the DOJ official biography. You lifted seven whole sentences verbatim and made only the barest of cosmetic adjustments to them. I don't know if this is a violation of Wikipedia policy, but it would fail plagiarism and academic integrity standards at any university in America. Please see the talk page on the article. If this is not a violation of Wikipedia policy, then feel free to point out the appropriate Wikipedia guidelines that made your wholesale use of someone else's material acceptable. Otherwise, please try rewriting the section. Thanks. 107.145.77.108 (talk) 13:08, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:10, 5 May 2017 (UTC) Re:Federal Judge articlesI appreciate the heads up. When does the White House put forward the bios? I haven't seen it yet. This White House seems kind of backwards when it comes to providing information on their nominees. Snickers2686 (talk) 22:34, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
Amy Coney Barrett full nameHey, I have a quick biographical question for you... I'm not familiar with the editor who created the article, but initially they had the nominee's full name listed as "Amy Vath Coney" yet with no citation or reference to said name within the article. According to the Senate Questionnaire she's only been known by two names: Amy Vivian Coney and Amy Coney Barrett. So I switched "Vath" to Vivian for the time being....I haven't been able to locate a source for "Vath". Do you know anything? Thanks in advance Snickers2686 (talk) 17:26, 18 May 2017 (UTC)
Request an article reviewHey Sir I hope everything is fine if you can review this page Seham Khaled https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seham_Khaled --FaridAbas (talk) 23:41, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Education vs. alma materHey Safiel! Just a quick question...I noticed you moved Claria Horn Boom's university studies from 'alma mater' to 'education' within the infobox. Does it make a difference? I always thought 'education' referred to primary, secondary school, etc and 'alma mater' referred more to a collegiate level. Just curious. I just wanted to make sure there was uniformity amongst all the federal judge articles. Thanks. Have a good one! Snickers2686 (talk) 00:13, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
Alabama federal judge nomineesHey, Quick question. The Alabama nominations of Terry F. Moorer, Annemarie Carney Axon and Liles C. Burke haven't been officially transferred to the Senate, only announced, right? I haven't found them on any official record as of yet. Snickers2686 (talk) 00:35, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Snickers2686: I believe you are correct, I don't believe they have been sent over yet. Safiel (talk) 00:37, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Snickers2686: I confirmed on congress.gov that Terry F. Moorer still has not been sent to the Senate yet. Won't know for certain about today's announcements until tomorrow on congress.gov. Safiel (talk) 01:05, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Safiel: Well according to the nominations the White House says they sent to the Senate, I don't see any Alabama nominee on there. Snickers2686 (talk) 01:54, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Snickers2686: I agree. Safiel (talk) 01:55, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Safiel: Oh, just one other question and then I'll get out of your hair. Is there any consensus on which infobox we're supposed to use for new articles, is it the officeholder one or the one for a judge? I've been using the judge one typically but then I notice that another editor will condense it down to the officeholder version. I just want to make sure I'm using the correct infobox. Snickers2686 (talk) 02:14, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Snickers2686: It should be Infobox judge. It is actually a fork of Infobox officeholder, but the documentation at the main template says to use the most appropriate title, i.e. Infobox judge, Infobox ambassador, Infobox representative, etc. Safiel (talk) 02:16, 14 July 2017 (UTC) @Snickers2686: For your convenience, their is a "clean" copy of the template at User:Safiel/Infobox judge, which I derived from the contents of Template:Infobox officeholder.

Thank YouI noticed that you recently reverted the redirect pages I previously created at User:Polbot/fjc/Stephen S. Trott, User:Polbot/fjc/Emory Marlin Sneeden, and User:Polbot/fjc/Kenneth Francis Ripple, and I wanted to thank you for doing that, because in retrospect, it occurred to me that I should have just nominated those pages for deletion. After receiving the alerts relating to your reverts, I double-checked my recent edit history for other instances in which I might have created similar redirect pages, and although I did not come across any further instances, I would encourage you to continue correcting any similar pages you may come across in the future.--TommyBoy (talk) 04:14, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

FYIHey, Just wanted to let you know I knocked all the recent district court and circuit court nominees that Trump nominated yesterday. I'm in the process of finishing up the Tax Court nominee now. There seems to be an editor who has an issue with A. Marvin Quattlebaum Jr.; he/she feels it isn't notable that they were nominated for a district court seat. The discussion is currently going on in the Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/A. Marvin Quattlebaum Jr. page and to me, all nominees have been given an article, even if they don't become a judge. I'm really at a loss as to what more this person wants. Maybe you can take a look? Thanks for the help. Have a great weekend! Snickers2686 (talk) 20:38, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
US Judge Succession boxesI'm not sure if you're familiar with Template:USRepSuccessionBox and Template:U.S. Senator box, but they are helpful additions to the legislative branch succession boxes. I think a template like that would a nice addition to Wikipedia:WikiProject United States courts and judges. Would you be interested in working with me to make a template like that? – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 00:58, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

John K. BushA user recently made edits to John K. Bush that modified the lede significantly to give more coverage to his, for lack of a better word, controversial political views. It contains a lot of content that is already present in the body of the article at the same amount of depth with no elaboration. Do you think the article should be changed? On a side note, thank you for participating in the RFC over the stops in the infoboxes. It's good that we don't have to take this to edit warring. – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 00:53, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
Richard W. RobertsThe sources cited in the Richard W. Roberts article, as well as all other sources I've seen, all say that Roberts retired. I can't find anything anywhere to corroborate him having taken inactive senior status instead. Do you have a source that we can cite? Also pinging @Snickers2686: I'd previously reverted his edits to the same effect as yours, for the same reason. Thanks! - Nellis 00:12, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
Deletion of Claremont Rug Company pageHello Safiel, When updating the Bakshaish, Caucasian, Sultanabad pages I added in information for Claremont Rug Company's Rug Type Guide pages which provides scholarly information on the origin, colors, design, and rich history of these Persian Rugs. My intention was not to advertise or promote Claremont Rug Company but to give reference to where the information came from. Our page has now been deleted and I request that it please be restored and in the future, I will not add written content to corresponding pages from our website. My intention was to provide more educational information about these types of rugs to enhance the user experience when searching through Wikipedia for these rug types and then reference the source not to promote our website. Thank you, Rug Connoisseur 09/20/17Rug Connoisseur (talk) 01:13, 21 September 2017 (UTC)
Sandra Day O'ConnorThe Supreme Court's Webpage (which is the authoritative source) states that a Justice's term begins when they take the oath of office (as opposed to the date of the commission). In Justice O'Connor's case, September 25 is the accurate date. I reverted your change and added the reference. JTRH (talk) 01:56, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

The article says he retired in 2004 (with no citation) but according to his FJC profile it says "Assumed senior status on March 8, 1991" but mentions nothing of a retirement. Is it possible he was on inactive status until his death? I didn't make any changes to the infobox regarding his term in senior status, I wanted to verify first before I changed anything.

Donald Trump judicial appointment controversiesI created Donald Trump judicial appointment controversies being as several of his nominees have been of contention, i.e. L. Steven Grasz, Amy Coney Barrett. And now with the withdraw requests of Brett Talley and Jeff Mateer--I think the article makes sense to create and maintain. However, it has been nominated for deletion and I'd like your viewpoint on the matter. (See:Afd:Donald Trump judicial appointment controversies).

The problem with putting the picture in the middle as a gallery is that the hovercard for the page then shows Trumps signature from the sidebar instead of the pic for some reason so if you could fix that i dont mind if its in the middle on Bush's page it just shows the beginning of the article if the picture is moved עם ישראל חי (talk) 14:51, 1 February 2018 (UTC) Justices and Senior StatusGood evening! I just wanted to give you a heads up about a contentious topic that doesn't seem to be going away, Supreme Court Justices and senior status --do we acknowledge it in Presidential tables (i.e. Judges appointed by (insert name)) tables or don't we? I did a ping earlier but I'm not sure if it worked. The relevant discussion is here. Feel free to add to the discussion. I'm just tired of the reverts and re-reverts and constant back and forth so I'm trying to reach a consensus. If there's any other editors you think would benefit from the discussion, please let them know. Thanks! Snickers2686 (talk) 02:43, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
Donald Eugene O'BrienPlease take a look at his entry on List of federal judges appointed by Jimmy Carter. He was appointed to both N.D. Iowa and S.D. Iowa and that seems to be throwing the termination date of senior status off. One of the dates isn't showing up at all due some kind of formatting issue I think. I tried to fix it to no avail. – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 03:32, 10 February 2018 (UTC)
List of federal judges appointed by Lyndon B. JohnsonI must say you've been doing a phenomenal job on the presidential list articles. I do think there's a problem with this specific page, however. The note "See List of United States district and territorial courts" which is present in the bottom of every article isn't on this one, even though the "notes" section is present. Is there something wrong with the footnote grouping? – JocularJellyfish TalkContribs 03:33, 11 March 2018 (UTC)

The second picture is fine, I have just uploaded it to commons and included it in the article. Safiel (talk) 15:21, 8 June 2018 (UTC) BLP and TrumpI think Wikipedia:Crying "BLP!" is relevant here. Obviously, mildly inflammatory comments in a contentious debate should be avoided, I get that, but the pertinent point to me is "Looking at the history of WP:BLP, contentious material is primarily that, if untrue, would clearly cause harm to the subject." Everything I have said about Trump is true and documented in multiple, independent reliable sources, and if he feels harmed by robust criticism at an identical level to what he publicly broadcasts to millions of people, then he shouldn't have sought public office. As I understand it, BLP was designed to protect potential libel and defamation of not particularly well-known people. However, I do make a point of going nowhere near Trump-related articles because I don't feel I can edit them while adhering to a neutral point of view.
