Big Island

Please note that disambiguation pages like Big Island are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, each entry should have one blue link to an article that mentions the title being disambiguated, and references aren't used since those should be in the supporting article.

Pages you have created

I see that you have created some pages that are now blank, would you like them to be deleted? Rusty4321 talk contributions 23:03, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure what pages you're referring to. Do you mean the island drafts that I blanked? It'd be great if you could delete them, thanks for the offer! —Panamitsu (talk) 23:10, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
Yes, I mean them. Next time, you can place {{db-g7}} on top of a page you created that you want to delete to tag it for speedy deletion. Happy editing! Rusty4321 talk contributions 22:53, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for teaching me this! —Panamitsu (talk) 22:54, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Lemon & Paeroa

The article Lemon & Paeroa you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Lemon & Paeroa for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Rjjiii -- Rjjiii (talk) 20:22, 30 September 2023 (UTC)

Responding to "Well thank you for choosing to review an article that was obviously very far from GA status! It helps a lot." here. You're quite welcome. I personally believe that the ultimate point of each of Wikipedia's auditing processes is not to rate pages, but to provide a framework to improve the encyclopedia. I think you've improved the article a good ways from where it was, and if this GA review helped at all, then I am glad. I had intended to post this message about a week ago, but have had much in real life. Regards, Rjjiii (talk) 01:34, 8 October 2023 (UTC)
Agreed, it really helps to have outsiders suggest improvements that are quite difficult to spot for people closely related to the subject. No worries about timing! —Panamitsu (talk) 01:40, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Notability

Thanks for creating articles about NZ. However, please ensure that the subjects of the articles are notable; i.e., that the subject merits a separate article. WP:NATFEAT is the relevant notability guideline. Cheers, Edward-Woodrowtalk 15:31, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Yup, I've had this conversation with another review and I agree that they aren't notable. —Panamitsu (talk) 21:51, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

FYI re NZ Herald citations

Congrats on the continued great work with the NZ articles / DYKs. :) I just wanted to flag that the automatic citations for articles on https://www.nzherald.co.nz/ aren't really working at the moment. Instead of the actual date of the article, the |date= parameter will include the access date. So for example this article[1] should be dated 13 September 2019 but is coming up in the citation as 22 October 2023. The headline also comes up differently ("Owner of Hawke's Bay ice cream brand Rush Munro's sells to company's GM" is what the headline actually says on the article) although that's a more minor issue I think.

  1. ^ "Rush Munro's GM now owns the company". NZ Herald. 22 October 2023. Retrieved 22 October 2023.

I've sorted citation dates for the Rush Munro's article, but thought I'd flag in case it helps with future work. P.S. I grew up in Hawke's Bay and can't believe that Rush Munro's didn't already have an article. Thank you for creating it! Chocmilk03 (talk) 21:59, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

@Chocmilk03 Thank you! I had noticed this issue a few times but could never figure out what caused it! —Panamitsu (talk) 22:02, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

How to phrase Goody Goody Gum Drops hook

Hi Panamitsu, hope you're well. I've just promoted Goody Goody Gum Drops to Prep 2 at DYK, but the question of how to refer to it in the hook is a little tricky. The thing we article-name as Ice pop really doesn't have an engvar-neutral name (check out the list in that article), and most of the names it does have are very regional/not well-recognized by readers in other countries -- I don't know if "ice block" will get across "ice cream" to a broad audience. What do you think is the best way to phrase this? I think Ice cream bar is likely to be best, especially given it clearly suggests an ice cream rather than the often water-based form of (icypoles/iceblocks/popsicles/etc), but interested in getting your thoughts. Vaticidalprophet 18:44, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

@Vaticidalprophet That could work. The sources used "ice cream on a stick" which may also work but sounds a bit unwieldy. —Panamitsu (talk) 21:26, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
@Vaticidalprophet: In my experience, most people would eat these in an ice cream cone. If you can buy a container (usually 2 litres) in a supermarket, then people would also have it for dessert, possibly with sliced fruit. I've never heard of the version on a stick, but I tend to prefer hokey pokey flavoured ice cream. I think the blurb should say "ice cream flavour".-gadfium 22:33, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
It did originally, but when I re-read the article I noticed the hook referred specifically to the bar form. Vaticidalprophet 22:35, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
The hook is specifically about the version of the flavour on a stick so I think it would be misleading to just say "ice cream flavour". —Panamitsu (talk) 23:12, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
