Invitation to an in-person meetup in Mohua / Golden Bay

[edit]
Golden Bay Air are holding some seats for us until 21 November

Thinking about your summer break? Think about joining other Wikipedians and Wikimedians in Golden Bay / Mohua! Details are on the meetup page. There's heaps of interesting stuff to work on e.g. the oldest extant waka or New Zealand's oldest ongoing legal case. Or you may spend your time taking photos and then upload them.

Golden Bay is hard to get to and the airline flying into Tākaka uses small planes, so we are holding some seats from and to Wellington and we are offering attendees a $200 travel subsidy to help with costs.

Be in touch with Schwede66 if this event interests you and you'd like to discuss logistics. Schwede66 09:14, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Question about revert

[edit]

Hello @Epipelagic! I was wondering if you could help me better understand the revert you did on one of my edits. I added the food infobox there because it seems like other articles that are about a food item have it—I don't really understand why my adding it to that page was incorrect. Thank you! —Kittycataclysm (talk) 22:54, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

{{Infobox food}} is not designed to be used in an article like Fish as food, which is a overview article about the different fish species and fish groups, world wide, that are used as food. Instead, the food infobox is designed to provide information about specific culinary dishes, like chicken Kiev . The infobox is used mainly to provide information, like nutritional information, about one specific dish. It is not flexible enough to offer useful information about fish nutritional in general. The one useful additional information that you found you could offer in the infobox was a link to a Wikimedia Commons category about fish as food. That link had already been added to the article in a more appropriate place, the external links section. Regards – Epipelagic (talk) 04:15, 22 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Got it—thank you! I will try to make sure my use of that infobox is more appropriately tailored. If you have concerns about any of my edits, please let me know on my talk page. Cheers —Kittycataclysm (talk) 03:58, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In NZ English, is it "mentioned in despatches" or "dispatches"? I chose the British spelling in my edit as more likely than the US one, but defer to you.

Yes, I too am a Drachinifel fan. Narky Blert (talk) 16:43, 10 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Narky. It seems despatches and dispatches are used about equally in the context of the NZ military – I don't think it matters which you use. Yes, I certainly value Drachinifel's videos, though he can be combative and puts Wikipedia editors down. Drachinifel would be more impressive if he sometimes improved Wikipedia where he knows it needs improvement, like the superb Rif Winfield. — Epipelagic (talk) 05:58, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your kind praise. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, both "despatch" and "dispatch" are acceptable alternative spellings for the same word. Rif Winfield (talk) 09:58, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
People who grumble about Wikipedia when they have the knowledge - and sources - to improve it annoy the bejasus out of me too. Narky Blert (talk) 13:11, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
