Hey Benhen1997

I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).

So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.

What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.

The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Thanks, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 21:39, 28 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate the work you're doing on rail route templates, but is the inclusion of every river really helpful to the reader? Those articles are more about services than the physical routes themselves. In the case of the Silver Meteor (for example), I would think the inclusion of rivers more appropriate in articles about the individual CSX subdivisions over which that and other trains run. Cheers, Mackensen (talk) 12:27, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I do see where you're coming from. My original intent was to include only major water crossings (Hudson, Delaware, Susquehanna, St. Johns, etc.), as a reader may be interested in that to know where the route leads. I didn't quite plan on including things like the C. Stanley Weaver Canal, or other non-important or non-navigable waterways, it just sorta happened toward the end. As I continue, I will try very hard to keep the small, non-important rivers out of the diagram, to keep the diagram from growing to a massive size (Template:Amtrak Acela), and revisit those on which I have done way too much (Template:Amtrak Acela).
Ben (talk) 12:36, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, but I've been looking at the growth of the various Amtrak templates and it's just out of hand. These are route templates. They're meant to show the stations the service stops at. There's so much detail now that the stations are getting dwarfed. I'm having trouble reading them. Mackensen (talk) 22:10, 10 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For your future reference, official standings can be viewed on the SEC website[1]. Head-to-head results as tiebreakers are not used until the regular season ends and all conference games have been played. Prior to that point, the SEC uses winning percentage in conference games to establish the standings. GarnetAndBlack (talk) 06:05, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Benhen1997. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! – Juliancolton | ^Talk 02:06, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

Oregon is not a Pac-12 North Division co-champion with Stanford. You are correct that they are indeed tied for first, until you take into account the tiebreaker, which is Stanford's win over Oregon. I'd like to point out that I am a die hard Duck fan, but the page has to be accurate.

Athies22 (talk) 00:02, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because they are tied for first, they are co-champions. See the 2011 Oregon Ducks football team page, where the same thing happened, only in Oregon's favor. Oregon still went to the championship as the divisional rep, but the division championship is shared among the two tied teams. Also see 2012 Florida Gators football team.
Ben^Yes? 00:11, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The problem is, is that they are not tied for first, in case of a tie, there is a tie-breaker, which Stanford wins. If that is the case about the 2011 page it should be altered. As for Florida they are in a different conference which may have rules that allow for divisional co-champions, the problem here is the Pac-12 does not. Not only does the Pac-12 have no mention of divisional co-champions, the University of Oregon Athletic Department has released nothing regarding being crowned as divisional co-champions.

Athies22 (talk) 00:15, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I'll look into the conference rules. Thanks for bringing this possibility to me. I didn't consider this.
Ben^Yes? 00:17, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ben,

I'm aware of the problems of constantly reverting the editions on Arena Corinthians. But I don't understand this last revision. I did as written on the dispute resolution guidelines ("When you find a passage in an article that is biased or inaccurate, improve it if you can;"). I gathered more sources to the controversies, written them in impartial form (the older revisions are clearly biased and even go off-topic, starting to talk about a club officer's night life) and moved the controversies topic to the bottom of the article (which is what I usually find in other articles around Wikipedia).

I didn't know I was doing something wrong this time. Is that wrong? Gathering more information to put in the article?

130.88.164.18 (talk) 23:10, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see now….I didn't see the move to the bottom. Thanks for bringing this to me. Sorry for any inconvenience. Ben^Yes? 23:16, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's okay, I am sorry for causing you trouble earlier, I should have done that from the start.

130.88.164.18 (talk) 23:44, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for troubling you again, but it the same use who made the first changes on the controversies (User:Rauzaruku) seems to keep reverting the revisions I did to the article. His text is simply a transcription of an article (and a very poorly translated one) And this guy continues to threat me and impose his will (if you go to the talk page, you'll see his behaviour, and later I found that he even deleted another comment at one moment just so he wouldn't need to respond, to later come with another threat), I know talking won't do anything: he simply won't listen.

On another topic, but still related to this, he said "blogs are unreliable sources" as the reason for undoing my revisions. I completely understand someone's blogspot or wordpress is clearly unreliable, but what about editors working for a news portal or agency on a regular basis (which is quite a common occurrence and released by a certain agency, which has credentials and credibility to publish news and reports)?

Sorry again for the trouble.

Hello. You appear to be involved in an edit war on User talk:86.148.106.245.

While the three-revert rule is hard and fast, please be aware that you can be blocked for edit warring without making 3 reverts to an article in 24 hours. You are not entitled to 3 reverts and edit wars may be slow-moving, spanning weeks or months. Edit wars are not limited to 24 hours.

If you are unclear how to resolve a content dispute, please see dispute resolution. You are expected to cooperatively engage other editors on talk pages rather than reverting their edits. Note that posting your thoughts on the talk page alone is not a license to continue reverting. You must reach consensus.

If you feel your edits might qualify as one of the small list of exceptions, please apply them with caution and ensure that anyone looking at your edits will come to the same conclusion. If you are uncertain, seek clarification before continuing. Quite a few editors have found themselves blocked for misunderstanding and/or misapplying these exceptions. Often times, requesting page protection or a sockppuppet investigation is a much better course of action.

Continued edit warring on User talk:86.148.106.245 or any other article may cause you to be blocked without further notice.

BTW, you should review WP:BLANKING. Toddst1 (talk) 02:58, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'll keep WP:BLANKING in mind. I would never start/engage in a war intentionally. WP:BLANKING will keep me from doing edit wars more. Ben^Yes? 03:09, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I came here to mention something similar. While the IP's attacks on your user page were completely unacceptable, and their vandalism of someone else's talk page which lead to you warning them also wrong (so your warnings completely justified), as Toddst1 has hinted at WP:BLANKING does allow the IP to remove most of the stuff on their talk page including that which you were removing, if they desire. It sounds like you know this now, I only really mentioned it again so people know I am following up. Nil Einne (talk) 04:45, 20 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted your changes. Most of what you did was adding street names and shields that do not appear on signs along I-4 (and some of which are incorrect, e.g. SR 438). As for the truck routes, there happens to be a linked article: Bannered routes of U.S. Route 17#Maitland truck route (and signs on I-4). --NE2 02:46, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

See the county FDOT maps. This one in particular shows that SR 438, per your example, is a (technically) correct listing for that road. I, myself, have, however, driven through Orlando many times before, and I know how some of the bannered routes are (frustratingly to people who don't live there, such as myself) not listed on the overhead signs. So, I do understand your rationale completely. I should have checked around for the Truck Routes for more information. I did save my (over?)expanded version of the exit list for I-4 in my sandbox, as I had a feeling that this would happen, so I can see if it can become more realistic. Most of what I did was putting the bannered route names and street names in the {{Junction}} template to eliminate situations such as DeBary, Deltona (CR 4162). Ben^Yes? 03:00, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Those county maps are full of errors (not only SR 438, but SR 15 in downtown, SR 424A, CR 434, the south end of SR 423 [typoed as SR 523], CR 535, the east end of SR 536, the east end of SR 482). Signs are posted indicating that state maintenance ends at Rio Grande, and FDOT GIS data and straight line diagrams agree (if you're looking for maps, the federal aid maps are imperfect but do show state maintenance accurately). With the exception of one recently-removed sign just west of Edgewater, SR 438 has not been signed east of Rio Grande for the 15 years I've lived here. --NE2 03:14, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Why exactly are you not listing the seeds on the Super Regionals? Do you not realize that the seeds carry over to the Super Regionals? And do you not realize that it isn't until the College World Series itself that only the Top 8 seeds get listed, not the Super Regionals. Please explain why you are listing it opposite of how the NCAA lists it, especially since that is the source. Bigddan11 (talk) 20:11, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I do not see an NCAA source given on the page that specifically refers to Regional-level seedings being used at the Super Regional level. Given that, it would be strange to have a game of a #1 team playing another #1 team, just because they're from different Regionals. Also, the consensus for every other NCAA Baseball Tournament page is to start using the national seeding for the Super Regional level and everything following. The reason for this is that the national seeds automatically host the Super Regional. However, if the national seeds lose in the Regional Tournament, then the Super Regional site is bid upon among the Regional champions. Ben^Yes? 20:24, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually the higest remaining seed hosts the Super Regional if the national seed is eliminated. If LSU loses tonight to Houston and Texas wins over A&M, Austin would host the Super Regional because the are the higher 2-seed. LSU is the 8th seed, meaning Rice was 9th seed, as they aim for 8 vs. 9 in the 2nd round. If you actually trace out the seeding with this knowledge, it makes Texas the 24-seed and Houston the 25-seed, so Austin would host the Super regional if Texas beats A&M and Houston beats LSU. There has never been any bidding involved. Should Houston and A&M win, Houston would host the Super Regional as they were a 2-seed and A&M was a 3-seed. While they only show the top 8 seeds, the baseball tournament has always been done the same way as the NCAA Basketball Tournament in terms of seeding. They make the second round a 1 vs. 16, 2 vs. 15, 3 vs. 14, and so forth should all the 1 seeds advance. And it is the official NCAA bracket that has always been used here at Wikipedia, which you can see here. It clearly shows there they carry over the seeds they originally have into the Super Regionals. However when the go to the College World Series, it is the national seeds they use.Bigddan11 (talk) 21:01, 2 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

If that's the case, with the highest remaining seed from Regionals hosting, then the fifth paragraph of the lead section on NCAA Division I Baseball Championship should be rephrased. Is there a source that could be used from the NCAA that provides guidance in that matter? I see how the seeding is done on the NCAA bracket, I'm just a bit curious about why there seems to be a consensus on how the Super Regional teams are seeded on every other page. It does make sense that the national seeds are used in the College World Series, I just find it a bit odd that the NCAA wouldn't use them at the Super Regional level. But, that's just how I see it, and we must use the NCAA format if that is the given source. Ben^Yes? 14:07, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Also, I just noticed something that I find a bit strange. In the "Austin" Super Regional, both #2 seeds advanced to the Super Regional Tournament, Houston and Texas. I thought that Houston would be the host, since they were from the national seed's Regional, LSU. Why does Texas host in this case? Ben^Yes? 14:13, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

And according to this, it seems that the Committee selects the Super Regional hosts if the national seed doesn't advance. Ben^Yes? 14:40, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

They will claim that they select the site, but they really just defer to the actual way they seeded everyone 1-64. As I explained earlier, they actually seed all the 1 seeds 1-16, though they only list 1-8 for everyone to see. They make it where the 16th 1 seed will play the 1 1-seed in the 2nd round should both advance. The 17-seed is then placed in the 16th 1-seeds region as the 2-seed, and they work there way back to 32 being the 2 seed in the overall 1's region. A lot of the placement is done geographically, but if all of it were done so, then it would have been Houston in the Houston regional and not Texas. With that knowledge, you can figure out exactly how they seeded everyone. LSU was the 9th 1-seed. That makes Texas the 24-seed (or 8th #2 seed) and Houston the 25-seed (or 9th #2 seed). Looking back you will find that they always select the higher seed to host the Super Regional, as long as their field is available, based on how they initally seeded them all. You will also see that no 4-seed has ever hosted a Super Regional.Bigddan11 (talk) 15:43, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm trying to copyedit a template that I've put in my sandbox, but I keep running into the same issue of an "unrecognized character," which I can't figure out because every other parameter looks the same to me. What do I need to put into the template to solve the error? The template in question itself is Template:Infobox NCAA football yearly game. Thanks!

It took me some doing, but this should do the trick. In short, you used an additional "{{#if:" clause, but never added the corresponding "}}" to end that clause. Huon (talk) 01:26, 25 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Benhen1997:

On the Mountain West football championship website <http://www.themw.com/#!/page/championship_m-footbl>, there is a link for "Host Site Determination and Divisional Tiebreaking Procedures," which takes you to <http://mwc-platform.silverchalice.co/v3/files/54496344e4b0641ed5ceeeab>. Page 2 covers "Divisional Tiebreakers."

The following is an excerpt: Tie Between Two Teams In the event of a percentage tie for a divisional championship between two teams, if one team was the winner of the Conference game between the two teams, it shall be the divisional champion.

Fresno State beat San Diego State on 3-Cct-2014.

MW Conference standings can be found at: <http://www.themw.com/#!/standings?sport=m-footbl> and <http://www.themw.com/#!/news-detail/mountain-west-football-weekly-release-championship-edition-12-03-2014>.

Ok, please forgive my ignorance...it seems that the MWC is the only league in organized amateur football that doesn't do shared titles. Thanks for being bold. Ben^Yes? 20:33, 6 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The reason I switched it to how I had it is because I think it looks cleaner and is MUCH easier to follow like this. "Memphis QB Paxton Lynch" sounds kind of unwieldy, while "QB Paxton Lynch, Memphis" of some sort would be more recognizeable. Also, just because that's how it's listed in the documentation template doesn't mean that it MUST always be like this (no policy or guideline states that). Personally, I think this warrants further discussion on the template's talk page. Tom Danson (talk) 16:47, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I really don't have a preference as to how it's worded. My thing is that the style on one page should not be different to the wording style of another; I started changing them because there were several different ways the MVP was worded, and I went to the documentation to see what the example is there, under the assumption that the documentation reflects a pre-established consensus. "QB Paxton Lynch, Memphis" is fine with me as long as every page looks like that. 17:10, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

In 2013, Ole Miss self-imposed a postseason ban against that year's women's basketball team, meaning that the 2013 SEC Women's Basketball Tournament had only 13 teams. No such bracket exists, so I just put dashes in place of where Ole Miss would have played. Now, I'm trying to create a 13-team bracket, and am almost there, but can't quite solve the puzzle, and need someone to show me how to put on the finishing touches (or do it for me). My work so far can be found here. Thanks! Ben^Yes? 23:52, 2 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Great edit! Love the new diagram. Do you think I-295 should be included on the map either instead of or in addition to the Turnpike? It has a dedicated/named exit for Woodcrest station and that station is set up as a Park & Ride for travelers on 295 whereas I-95 simply passes through without a nearby exit. j.reed (talk) 16:25, 11 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I misread Google Maps thinking that the Turnpike was I-295. I also want to go back and add I-95 on the west side of the Delaware River. Thanks for your feedback. Ben^Yes? 01:14, 13 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I see you added 295 but didn't add 95 as you mentioned. I went ahead and did it. Because of the mass of icons in that area, I extended the road a half icon on each side for clarity and matched the two roads to the east for uniformity. j.reed (talk) 14:58, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah I was waiting on a pictogram for a 4-lane road for parallel/across use to combine it with the Market–Frankford Line as it is at Spring Garden, but it's just as well the way you made it. I guess they don't run parallel to each other quite then. Ben^Yes? 15:20, 21 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Regarding your recent edit at 2015 Tennessee Volunteers football team, "12:00 p.m." is in fact incorrect, and "Noon" is correct. This is because of the Manual of Style requirements of WP:TIME, which dictates this format. Thanks! Ben^Yes? 22:23, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry but you are mistaken. Just look at other 1200 posting on other NCAA football schedules. But I see you are going to all the Wikipedia pages for this year and changing them to soot your need to say noon. If that is what you want feel free to change each and every football page from the 1890's to today because they all have the number format. Noon is not a military or time. P.S. I don't want to discus this anymore so please don't write me back, as I am saying change them all if it makes you happy. MDSanker 23:28, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

After seeing you edit 2018 Southeastern Conference Baseball Tournament, I'm assuming you have a high level of familiarity with updating these tournament pages. I'm having trouble figuring out the correct wiki-syntax for editing 2018 Atlantic Coast Conference Baseball Tournament in order to include results of FSU's win over UVA -- it's a pool-play style tournament, and I've only made edits to tournament pages with traditional brackets. If you could explain to me how to properly update the ACC's tournament page, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for the calculation of the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. See User:RonBot for info on how to not get these messages.

Thanks for improving Template:2021 SEC baseball record vs. opponent. For future reference, changes to a template may require changes to the documentation and/or template variables and possibly to the articles that use the template. Although it is just as well, since I had inadvertently left off the variables team=FLA and team=LSU on their articles. The variable really isn't necessary since it only colors the row of the team specified. That is done for the template used for the same purpose for the AL and NL, as shown at 2021 Boston Red Sox season#American_League. It wouldn't in particular bother me if someone did not want to use that feature. Jay Jor (talk) 01:26, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
