Hello to all fellow Wikipedians. GoodDay 22:40, 17 November 2005 (UTC).[reply]

This user has been on Wikipedia for 18 years, 5 months and 6 days.

You may be wondering why my archives only start at August 2007. The reason: I didn't archive my pages before that date, I merely deleted them (as I didn't know how to archive). Therefore, if anyone wishes to see material before August 2007? check out this talkpage's 'history'.

Hard to guess. I'm surprised some of the obscure drafts didn't go through more easily (the ones that are relisted). Dicklyon (talk) 10:36, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Link change

I don't understand what you are trying to do by changing from

vice president of the United States, which is then redirected to Vice President of the United States anyway. Is there any particular reason to make this change? - Ttwaring (talk) 18:04, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

WP:JOBTITLES. -- GoodDay (talk) 18:05, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

The text was already compliant with
WP:JOBTITLES before you made the change. It was vice president rather than Vice President. There is no point in changing the link to a redirect instead of the actual article. - Ttwaring (talk) 18:12, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

I presume, you were the individual who made the previous changes, in this area? GoodDay (talk) 18:14, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think I have ever changed a "vice president" link. I can find out who put the link in its current form, if you like.
Anyway the point is that
WP:JOBTITLES refers to the text displayed on the page, rather than the piped link. Ttwaring (talk) 18:17, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply

Having the linked page capitalised, might cause editors to capitalise what's shown. GoodDay (talk) 18:19, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It seemed to do OK from 28 May 2021 through to April 2024. It seems like you might have set yourself up for a lot of link editing. Anyway, thanks for explaining. - Ttwaring (talk) 18:32, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I came here about the same thing. If there's going to be a lot of this sort of thing going on, maybe it should be discussed in a wider forum. Wehwalt (talk) 10:23, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

NHL Captains lists - Arizona

Hello there, I noticed that you removed ARI from the captain's list and while I am aware that the franchise is inactive, I feel as though the team should still be referenced in the list (as it is in the Alternate Captains list), since the franchise does still exist (and is referenced in other NHL list articles) so in my opinion, removing it from the list and having the article state that there are only 32 teams is incorrect. I also feel that having the article state that there are 33 teams but only listing the 32 that are active would likewise be incorrect, and would probably be confusing to the reader as well. That said, I didn't want to simply revert your edit without first discussing how we might proceed. FHSIG13 TALK 06:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fhsig13: I removed the Coyotes, because they no longer have any players, for the moment. Either way, the Coyotes' no longer have any alternate captains, let alone a captain. I think it would be more accurate to simply have a 'footnote', mentioning the Coyotes. GoodDay (talk) 13:36, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@GoodDay I can respect where you’re coming from on that one, however I think it would be less confusing to keep the Coyotes on the lists, but mark the captaincy/alternate captaincies as “inactive” instead of vacant. If you don’t feel this is suitable, I can stipulate to a footnote instead. Thank you for your consideration. FHSIG13 TALK 21:38, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Fhsig13: Do as you wish. I find the whole Arizona/Utah situation somewhat confusing. GoodDay (talk) 21:48, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@GoodDay It is a very confusing matter, to be certain. I think that since other editors held that listing the captain, head coach, and general manager positions as vacant on the team page was arbitrary, I will align the captaincy list article with that consensus and mark the empty slots as "inactive", as previously stated, along with an explanatory footnote.
