Thank you + Requesting Help

edit

Hi Julle. Hope your ok. Thank you for helping to find some sources for Fyrishov, and helping to improve the page. With these new sources, I’ll improve the page as much as I possibly can at some stage this week. Again, thank you for finding and adding these sources.

I was wondering, if you have the time, if you could have a look at Gustavsvik and Simhallsbadet, Helsingborg at some stage. If not, it isn’t a problem, but I’d appreciate any help since I’m not a Swedish speaker. Of course, there are lots of ways around this language barrier problem nowadays, but to have some assistance on Swedish articles by users who are from Sweden would be greatly appreciated (please correct me if I am incorrectly mistaken in thinking you are from Sweden).

Essentially, the problem with these two articles is they don’t reference any sources. Any sources that are out there are likely to be in Swedish, and this is potentially why they haven’t been found. As I said above, please don’t feel pressured into doing this if you don’t have any spare time. Fats40boy11 (talk) 06:31, 21 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Fats40boy11: I've added the bare minimum – at least enough to remove the {{Unreferenced}} templates.
Finding Swedish sources for these kind of things, where you'll probably have to rely on print sources and newspaper articles, is very difficult for most people. Print sources for the obvious reason that they'll be offline and in Swedish, but newspaper articles are also difficult to find using e.g. a Google search among newspapers – the vast majority of Swedish newspaper articles just don't show up there. You sort of need access to w:sv:Mediearkivet, the Swedish newspaper archive (has most articles from the last 15 years or so, and some from the preceding 10 years as well), or the digitalised newspaper archives of the Royal Library (typically accessible only by physically going there, or to a small number of university libraries). /Julle (talk) 09:45, 21 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Camp Victoria

edit

Thanks for your work on Camp Victoria. You might want to make the same changes to the corresponding article in Swedish. I did a bit of work there, but I don't want to annoy anybody by adding machine-translated text. Eastmain (talkcontribs) 20:05, 29 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

I'll take a look. And yeah, we prefer to avoid the machine translations. (: /Julle (talk) 23:42, 29 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Happy Cinnamon Roll Day

I wrote Cinnamon Roll Day five years ago because you mentioned it, and it's on the Main Page#On this day right now. Thanks for telling me about that happy holiday. WhatamIdoing (talk) 15:08, 4 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the delightful article in today's Signpost. You've captured very well the determination and satisfaction many of us get from editing here, and I'm in awe of the lengths you went to produce a needed citation! Jfire (talk) 05:56, 13 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, Jfire! Appreciated. That surge of satisfaction when I finally knew I'd be able to add it to the article was very rewarding. /Julle (talk) 09:35, 13 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

David Pérez (footballer) moved to draftspace

edit

Thanks for your contributions to David Pérez (footballer). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because of consensus at [[1]]. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Let'srun (talk) 20:52, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Let'srun: Just making sure you've written to the right person(s) (too), I want to stress that I merely made some small additions while the article was up at AfD, hoping to be able to keep it in the article namespace but ultimately deciding that my efforts didn't yield enough results for me to make a convincing argument to keep it. (: Others are more likely to be engaged enough in the topic to keep building on it and move it back at a later date. /Julle (talk) 21:08, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Volleyball vs Beach volleyball

edit

Hello! The reason I wrote that Sweden won its first medals in the sport Volleyball is because that's actually true. In Olympics, Indoor volleyball and Beach volleyball are disciplines within the sport Volleyball. It gets confusing when Wikipedia lacks a separate page for the sport, instead linking to the other discipline, Indoor volleyball.

The way Wikipedia handles sports vs disciplines is illogical at best. Aquatic disciplines (like Diving, Swimming and Water Polo) are largely treated as if they were their own sports, even sorted seperately on countries' Olympic pages. Basketball (3x3 basketball and team basketball) and Volleyball (beach volleyball and indoor volleyball) are sorted together on countries' pages but obviously lack articles for the overarching sports. Meanwhile Equestrian is generally treated as one sport with its disciplines dressage, eventing and show jumping treated more like events within one sport.

Anyways, I don't object to you modifying what I've written on Sweden at the Olympics pages, you're welcome to edit and add info. We can always use more editors there, it often gets tedious to add all the various placements as most people only care about the medalists and don't provide any help beyond that. -- Lejman (talk) 01:52, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Lejman: Thanks for the explanation! /Julle (talk) 04:58, 11 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Need help

edit

As you are a Swedish speaker, any sources for Martin Q Larsson? Currently unreferenced in English and Swedish versions. LibStar (talk) 01:32, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

LibStar: Thanks for asking! I'll take a look. /Julle (talk) 09:17, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
LibStar: I've added a small bunch of references. Of the sources I've located, two (the TTELA ones) are focused on work he's been participating in or composing, but not on him as a person, one is pretty short, but two have more substantial coverage. /Julle (talk) 09:48, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
This is beyond my ability to work on this article right now, but additionally, there was a widely reported court case where Larsson and some others where convicted in a bribery case when he served as the president of the Swedish Society of Composers, as they had organized lavished dinners for some government officials on an annual basis – Larsson and one other person for the bribe, and some government officials for accepting it.
This might be relevant for inclusion, as it was in the line of his public role. /Julle (talk) 10:55, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
I now see the article used to be referenced, but that both these and the case mentioned above were removed in Special:Diff/946211256 and Special:Diff/1119637702. /Julle (talk) 16:55, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you. LibStar (talk) 23:03, 3 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Happy Cinnamon Roll Day
I hope that you have a sweet celebration of the 25th anniversary of Cinnamon Roll Day today. WhatamIdoing (talk) 17:26, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
WhatamIdoing: Thank you! This year, Cinnamon Roll Day coincides with Root Mash Eve, an important feast celebrated (by maybe a dozen people or so) on the first Friday of October. Alas, I'm suffering from the consequences of having spent half of last week at the Göteborg Book Fair, having breathed the air of thousands and thousands of other people, so no root vegetable mash for me.
But I did bring home some nice books, projects and plenty of photos for Commons, in addition to my cold. /Julle (talk) 17:33, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm pretty sure that a cinnamon roll with a hot drink would be good for your cold. Just sayin'... WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:19, 4 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
