This is an odd revert. Policy is MOS:CAPTION. If a caption forms a sentence it has a period. If it doesn't, it doesn't. Please don't try to create a local consensus. Spicemix (talk) 07:22, 23 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Personally I would not put a period in a caption unless there was more than one sentence. I think this is in line with most captions in books, magazines etc.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 07:26, 23 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I saw you reverted my URL change to the address to The Pirate Bay website (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Pirate_Bay&oldid=prev&diff=1230705309). If you try to use the "thepiratebay.org" address, you may have your computer ridden with malware (the main webpage even try to convince the visitor to install Adobe Flash Player!!). I'm using Microsoft Edge 126.0.2592.68 (Chromium-based browser) on Windows 11 with strict tracking prevention and everytime I do a test on "thepiratebay.org" to download any torrent, it opens a new tab to install a "something.torrent.exe" and don't even open a page with the correct torrent selected on the search results.

However, if you use the "https://tpb.party" address, you get a working website that is not full of malware: it gives you right away the ".torrent" file (and not the "something.torrent.exe" file). Also, "piratebay-proxylist.com" doesn't show "thepiratebay.org" as a valid address; Bing Search puts "tpb.party" on the first search result; Google Search and Yandex Search don't even show "thepiratebay.org" on the first page of the search results.

Try to really use the URL provided by another editor, specially if that editor explained the reason behind the change, before reverting the edit.

The reason why I reverted this edit is because I looked at the TorrentFreak website and could not find any evidence that The Pirate Bay had changed its official URL. For practical purposes, thepiratebay.org is still the official URL. TPB has always had numerous mirror versions, but these are not official versions and WP:ELMINOFFICIAL applies here.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 06:55, 25 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

This category would benefit from some clarity as to whom it applies then. It has politicians, but also officials, advisers and publications. If it does not apply to people who supported Labour during that era, does it apply to donors during that era? Rodericksilly (talk) 15:22, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Elton John is known primarily as an entertainer. He has expressed support for the Labour Party, but WP:CATDEF says "The defining characteristics of an article's topic are central to categorizing the article. A defining characteristic is one that reliable sources commonly and consistently refer to in describing the topic, such as the nationality of a person or the geographic location of a place. For example, Italian and artist are defining characteristics of Caravaggio, and so of the article on him, because virtually all reliable sources on the topic mention them." It would be stretching things to say that supporting the Labour Party is one of the defining characteristics of Elton John's career. This could be raised on the talk page for further input.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 15:28, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello! I saw the reverted edit on the Michael Jackson page. I mean this very respectfully, but have you actually read the MJ piece that was linked? It seems only 15 seconds or so passed between the post and reversion. Again, this is not a negative observation but perhaps you should read the MJ PDF document and the historical facts stated within it. It seemed to be very unusual exposure documented from 1987. However I am fine with your decision. No war here at all. Cheers. Malcomsbridge (talk) 15:24, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

I was worried about due weight here. It doesn't seem to be something of key importance that has to be in the article. As ever, please discuss on the talk page if you want further input.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 15:30, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Yes, that sounds reasonable. Many thanks. Malcomsbridge (talk) 15:34, 30 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
