Tea Party movement

I realize that this was a while back, but about 3 years ago, you apparently implemented a 1RR restriction on the Tea Party movement article. This implementation of 1RR only applies to the same content. The standard definition of 1RR applies to any content on the page. Do you happen to remember why we're using a non-standard definition of 1RR on that page? This seems to be causing some confusion. Please see the following discussions:

A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 18:52, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

I don't remember for sure the exact reasons, but I do know how I think, and why I would have made such an arbitrary-sounding decision. It is almost certainly a combination of the following:
  • 1RR not being placed on different content allows for greater leeway to follow the WP:BRD cycle. BRD is not a policy or guideline, but it is a very good rule of thumb for keeping edit warring parties in check.
  • The disputes almost always centered around the same passages. Thus a 1RR restriction on the article would have done almost nothing to prevent additional edit warring, but it may have caused collateral damage in the form of people not being able to revert on a good faith basis.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Green Park Stadium Kanpur.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Green Park Stadium Kanpur.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages.

This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Image source

Hi Michael. If you created this image, please indicate as much in the {{Information}} template and fix the licensing accordingly. Thanks. Magog the Ogre (tc) 15:20, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

I created this image, but looking over the template for a minute or two I wasn't able to see how to do this. Michael Hardy (talk) 22:57, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

I've done it for you. Magog the Ogre (tc) 23:11, 24 March 2013 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Barnstar of Diligence
Thank you so much for all the hard work you've done over the years regarding transferring images to Wikimedia Commons and doing the legwork on making sure the sources and licenses are valid. I really appreciate your recent work on the Community Memory image I transfered to Commons, but it is just one of many, many things that I need to thank you for cleaning up or generally improving over the years. Thanks so much and take care! Michael Barera (talk) 15:31, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
