Heritage of Selena Gomez

[edit]

Heritage of Selena Kristian Gomez: Swedish heritage? Please help! Nagara373 18:24, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Surname means “haystack” but may be from anglicized from Dutch Hooiberg or Norwegian Høiberg. ―cobaltcigs 11:00, 25 August Selena is cray cray

Chicago signing

[edit]

It's against WP:RSBREAKING to include this yet. Per USA Today source, he "will be introduced officially at a news conference Tuesday afternoon, a person familiar with the development told USA TODAY Sports. The person requested anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the hire until it was announced by the team."—Bagumba (talk) 03:35, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion

[edit]

Previous editor removed a link from the infobox. Review shows the link was appropriate and relevant, and has been restored. if there is consensus for the removal it can be removed again, but such consensus should be documented in the talk page. Etamni✉   12:49, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

In the edit that you reverted, the other editor had placed in the edit summary a link to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_National_Basketball_Association/Style_advice (shortcut at WP:NBASTYLE). Generally, there has been no consensus within Wikiproject NBA to include stat leaders for secondary stats line 3FG%. If there was consensus for a given article, players like Hoiberg with few other "notable" accomplishments might include these, but there has been no general consensus to either generally include or exclude them.—Bagumba (talk) 21:04, 7 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Again, if there is some kind of consensus to remove that info, I think it can be documented here. Meanwhile, when reviewing recent changes to articles such as this one, explaining the rationale behind the deletion of information that was already present (when it's not an obvious vandalism revert) goes a long way in preventing other editors from thinking the deletion was some form of vandalism or part of an edit war.

"explaining the rationale behind the deletion of information that was already present": The edit summary the user provided was an attempt at that, albeit you can argue it's a WP:VAGUEWAVE. Still, it's superior to the majority of Wikipedia edits that don't provide an edit summary, or leave one that's even more cryptic. In the end, it was a bold edit that you reverted, a perfectly acceptable cycle. The one thing I'd caution against is avoiding reverts that appear to be based off of "no consensus". It's more effective to initiate a discussion by stating the empirical objection to the text being reverted, an improvement over stating that a prior edit was not "appropriate" or that there is no prior consensus. Alternatively, clarification could also have been requested on the rationale provided in the edit summary, e.g. "It's not apparent to me how the link in the edit summary is relevant. Can you elaborate?" Thanks.—Bagumba (talk) 16:49, 8 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
