I agree with your comments. As I said, I think that a block from article space should be a more common sanction against paid editors who are acting in good faith but are acting like paid editors.

Next Thai General Election

You sometimes nominate articles for deletion after an appropriate draftification has been contested. This is another. The twist is that I have requested a sockpuppet investigation into the two authors, because the second one came in when the first was blocked. Tag team editing sometimes refers to a form of battleground editing, but there is another type of tag teaming which is a form of sockpuppetry. I am sure you have seen tag team sockpuppets before. Robert McClenon ( talk) 20:28, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Robert McClenon I see tag teams all too often. If you feel it urgent pinging a CU will always be welcomed. If non urgent, not!

Mr Henderson is a very pleasant editor, but is ploughung the wrong furrow in the wrong field.

I like the concept of blocks from mainspace. I agree with you. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 20:40, 7 October 2023 (UTC)

In the case of the Thai election, there is a known sockmaster, and the CUs and clerks want as complete a blacklist of sockpuppets as possible. So in a few days or a week they will check whether the one I reported comes from the same duck pond. Robert McClenon ( talk)

Hey @ Timtrent, I just had a look at this draft, felt I recognised it, and saw your post at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Princek2019.

Am I missing something, but I feel like the sources on this draft are okay and perhaps establish notability? The article isn't written particularly well, and there's a couple of missing sources, but overall this feels like a pass of WP:NPEOPLE? Or am I wrong?

Best, Qcne (talk) 12:54, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Qcne I haven't looked deeply at the quality. I would lose the recognition section totally since anyone can be a panellist, though. It is either UPE or vanity publishing. Your call. I'm not back to reviewing until Monday. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 12:57, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Qcne I've lefts a response to the editor at the SPI 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:01, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Hm, thanks. I'll mark it under review and scrutinise it really carefully. Can't wait to have you back reviewing! Qcne (talk) 13:04, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Qcne It's been a necessary pause for propriety after the unpleasant accusations.

A brief look at the draft suggests WP:CITEKILL and a lack of references, coupled with those that Fail Verification. That is as far as I should go to influence you, I think. Most importantly, your opinion is your own.

Thank you for the good wishes, I appreciate them 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:08, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello, and thanks very much for the lovely feedback. I'm a little confused about the declined article as a number of presenters Barra works with could be categorised exactly the same, but their articles have been approved. Is there something I've done wrong with this particular article. I've included some approved articles as examples. Thanks again. C.

@ Catherine Gowdy No precedent is ever set by any article for any other. If it were we would have a brutally fast descent into idiocracy. Please see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. We have many tens of thousands of poor quality articles, and remarkably few people hunting them down. In time they will disappear of be improved 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 11:43, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Catherine Gowdy of the four you used as examples, I see one that has borderline notability. The other three I have nominated for WP:AFD to allow the community to decide. My belief is that they fail our inclusion criteria. Consensus will be formed and they will either be retained or deleted. All come from days when our inclusion criteria were very lax. 2006/7 were the early days of Wikipedia when it felt like articles were created willy nilly. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:03, 9 October 2023 (UTC)

Why? 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 06:09, 15 October 2023 (UTC)

The sources are all publications of the cryptocurrency community, and so not independent, so it fails general notability. That's one more reason to delete. Robert McClenon ( talk) 01:19, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Robert McClenon I agree with you. I also find preying on the generous and emotional to be disgraceful. I do not include the creating editor, whose good faith I assume.

Thank you for your source analysis. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 07:19, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

It is my understanding that, during the World Wars, there were businessmen who were said to be involved in "war profiteering", that is, trying to make an unreasonable return from business associated with the war, during which every citizen was expected to focus primarily on the national goal of winning the war. This appeared to be war profiteering. By the way, the AFD has been early closed as delete. Robert McClenon ( talk) 18:05, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

We hope, and those of us who belong to organized religion (I'm Catholic) pray, that we are not in World War Three, but we may be in the skirmishes leading up to a conventional World War Three. In any case, profiteering from the war, whether WW3 or not, may not be as bad as terrorism or imperial expansionism, but it isn't good. Robert McClenon ( talk) 18:05, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Robert McClenon Unlike you, I have no religion. As a separate issue I have no belief in a deity. Deities always seem to be on all possible sides in a war, and are always invoked by winners and losers alike.

I do find it rather odd that a putative deity founded their religion in the Middle East. I wonder, were that deity to exist, if that might be an amusing experiment to see what transpired.

I hope that reason will prevail. I hope that all warring parties everywhere wilily down their arms and embrace their supposed enemies. I hope that those with money realise that they have enough, and have no desire any more to gain more. I hope that those with power recognise the inherent fragility of power and seek to educate others in sensible and equitable use of any power they, we, might have.

That cannot be a prayer, for I have no deity to pray to. In that thought I envy you a little, assuming you have faith as well as religion. You have a fixed point to pray to, to praise, and to blame. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 18:16, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Timtrent. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Ann Wead Kimbrough".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗ plicit 23:44, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Explicit I just couldn't get it over the notability hurdle. References just didn't exist where I coudl find them. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 23:47, 16 October 2023 (UTC)

I have started the source analysis, and so far they are, as you say, press releases and stuff like that. I will finish within 24 hours. In the meantime, I have !voted a Weak Delete because, if the sources are good (and I don't think that they will be), it needs to be blown up and started over, or just blown up, or sent to Sagittarius A*.

@ Robert McClenon Thank you. I never like to get into a comment fight at AfD 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 07:47, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

What is a comment fight? Is that sort of like a food fight, only a little worse because the ammunition cannot then be eaten? It probably still needs to be sent to Sagittarius A* (the mass of which can be calculated from the orbital period of the doomed stars circling it).

There is no law or policy against being a paid editor. It is only their work and not the paid editor that should be blackholed. Robert McClenon ( talk) 15:52, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

@ Robert McClenon Thank you for your impartial review of the references. It proves that I was correct in my opinion that this article is unsuitable to remain.

I am writing this to you to substantiate the article about Hasan Mohammed Jinnah on Wikipedia. This article is currently listed as lacking substantial references, but I believe that it meets the criteria for inclusion.

           He is a state public Prosecutor of TamilNadu, India, who has widespread media coverage.

The article about him on Wikipedia is a well-written and informative. It covers all of the major aspects of personality and the cases in which he played a crucial role. The article is also well-sourced, with citations to reliable sources such as Tamilnadu Department of Information and Public Relations (DIPR), Madras High court press release.

I believe that the article meets all of the criteria for inclusion on Wikipedia. It is well-written, informative, and well-sourced. It is also a topic that is of interest to a wide range of people.

I urge you to reconsider the article. I will add his Twitter,Linkedin handle and other sources here. Thank you for your time and consideration.

@ Abayan leo Please see the big box at the head of this page where it says "I do not review drafts on request, nor, normally, do I review a draft more than once, so please do not ask". If you have resubmitted it then someone else will review it.

Hi there, appreciate the comments on my draft - Draft:Ajit Raizada. I am a relatively new contributor and hence there may have been gaps. A few comments on how I have drafted the article for your refence:

- agree with your comment that ' The sole element that might be notable is likely to be authorship'. The career as an administrator is secondary. I did try to highlight the authorship and have followed most Wiki 'people articles' to provide chronology as well different aspects of the subject - education, career etc.

- I tried to meticulously referenced external sources - 31 in all - most of which are skewed towards the literary career of the subject. I have however ensured that I taken in enough references which support his administrative career which provide more texture and background to the subject.

- Moreover, I looked at several other wiki articles of people of very similar background - V. P. Joy (poet and administrator), Amitabh Rajan (mainly administrative career),. Arun Bhatnagar - (mainly non notable administrative career with reasonable but limited references). Parikipandla Narahari (administrator, author and musician). They are all non notable Indian administrators and most are authors. For all these cases without exception, references do not cover every position of their careers as is in the case of Ajit Raizada whereas their published works, articles and journals are well supported by references as is the case for Raizada.

I have duly note you comment that I do not review drafts on request, nor, normally, do I review a draft more than once, so please do not ask

However, I also noted :) - If you want me to do something for you, make it easy for me, please.

Hence, may I request you to please spend some time to go thru once again. I'll be very to take in suggestions, as a new and inexperienced contributor, to make changes as required. Thanks!

YRSing ( talk) 10:53, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

@ YRSing What do you hope would be achieved by my taking a further look through it?

Probably that is a rhetorical question, so instead of going through it let me refer you to the process in this essay. It's one of many giving you a process that almost guarantees that an article may be accepted if the topic is truly notable.

Your job is only to show that the subject is notable. That can be done in very few sentences as long as you have three excellent references. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:14, 28 October 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for that. The stupid changes to the editing interface have really screwed things up for my standard editing. I think I've fixed it in preferences. We'll see.

Yes. Visual Editor is a poorly designed and poorly tested piece of code. Avoid it if you can, and you can avoid it. Robert McClenon ( talk) 02:48, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello Timtrent:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 2 months outstanding reviews from the current 4+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 November 2023 through 30 November 2023.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.

There is a backlog of over 2300 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:25, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi Tim, I'm writing to you about the Renexia page ( Draft:Renexia). After the first warning I updated the sources. Now, all informations contained on the page are supported by soucers for a total of 24 including: 1 institutional website (Delaware State Chamber Of Commerce) and 23 mass media (newspaper, press agency, television, information site, magazine). Some of these, are 5 main streams (for example WSJ, Reuters, Corriere della Sera and Rai – Italian Radio Television), the others are specialized in the energy sector. Do you consider WSJ, Reuters like other non-independent sources and the specialized press inadequate to write about the topic? I await your kind response to better understand.

Navajones ( talk) 19:32, 15 November 2023 (UTC)

@ Navajones Certainly, though I believe you will struggle to write an unbiased autobiography. Very few people are successful at the task because it is about them.

The simplest advice is to read this essay, which has a blow by blow guide on how to do it. If there are references that meet our needs it can be done.

For a living person we have a high standard of referencing. Every substantive fact you assert, especially one that is susceptible to potential challenge, requires a citation with a reference that is about them, and is independent of them, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS, and is significant coverage. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact cited, that meet these tough criteria is likely to make this draft a clear acceptance (0.9 probability). Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the person is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today.

Hi! I was wondering if you would reconsider you're decision re: Volume 1, seeing as Volume 2 already exists. Both were reasonably important albums in early sixties jazz and should have a separate page (imo) from the definitive complete sets issued four decades later. I also think they belong in the Davis album chronology, and it feels incomplete having only the second. Thank you for your time! TlonicChronic ( talk) 23:08, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

@ TlonicChronic I understand why you suggest that, but Vol 2 ought not to stand alone either. See Talk:In Person Friday and Saturday Nights at the Blackhawk, Complete where I have proposed that merger as well.

Isn't this a four volume set? 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 23:16, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

It's a four volume set, but volumes one and two are not a part of it. They were produced seperately and released separately; the track listings don't align. Just like Bitches Brew isn't listed under the Complete Bitches Brew release, nor Miles with Quincey with Live at Montreaux, or On the Corner with OtC Complete, nor Live 1969 with the Bootleg Series that includes it as well. They all have seperate pages. TlonicChronic ( talk) 23:23, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

@ TlonicChronic Since I am now very confused, I suggest you make that comment at the link I gave you above, and I will link to this conversation on the draft. I suggest you them resubmit it. My confusion means I will not easily be able to review it 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 23:27, 16 November 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for your help. I'll add links here to make this more comprehensive. We have:

· Bootleg Series Vol. 2 (2013) which contains Festiva de Juan Pins (1993)

· Blackhawk, Complete (2003) which contains In Person Friday Night at the Blackhawk, San Francisco, Volume 1 (1961) and Volume 2

· The Complete Plugged Nickel (1995) which contains Highlights (1995) and At Plugged Nickel, Chicago, Vols. 1 & 2 (1969)

· The Complete Montreux (2002) which contains Miles & Quincy (1993)

· and the eight "Complete" Miles Davis box sets.

I am of the opinion that the three pages that don't exist should be made, not that the other should be subsumed. However, I think it's inconsistent that the Plugged Nickel highlights, released concurrently with the Complete volume, has it's own page, where three albums released on Columbia when Davis was signed don't have their own pages, but need to be added to the Complete reissue that was released decades later, after his death.

Dear Fiddle Faddle, I am the author of the Draft article about painter Temo Svirely [1] A few days ago you declined it suggesting that I clean up the references. I have a question. There are several YouTube videos which, in my opinion, would add to the value of the article if properly linked. For example, this one, which is a short but powerful documentary about an important historical events, based on Temo's interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Q8JmqHxk1U Is there a right way of referencing it, in the Wikipedia article ? Would it be right to simply add them as inline links, as they are now? Please, advise ! AndreiMikhailov ( talk) 00:11, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

@ AndreiMikhailov Youtube is a problem because it is user generated content, so is not suitable as a reference. It may, however, be a suitable External link, in a section so named.

WP:YOUTUBE is your guide here. and {{ Youtube}} may be used to ensure the link works well 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 20:52, 19 November 2023 (UTC)

Thank you ! I followed your advice. AndreiMikhailov ( talk) 12:45, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

But I also have another question. The draft contains a list of his exhibitions. I have tried to find, if possible, a documented proof that an exhibition took place, and reference them. Is that really necessary? I mean, some of those references are not particularly informative. For example, I want to ask your advice, on these two: https://archive.ukrweekly.com/print-media/2011/The_Ukrainian_Weekly_2011-03.pdf and New York Art events in December 2012 . Does it really make sense to include such references? I am thinking about simply dropping them. Their only purpose would be proof that an event took place... What would be your advice?

@ AndreiMikhailov It’s hard to be sure 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 15:27, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

@ AndreiMikhailov The real question is whether the event adds value rather than the reference to it 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 15:28, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Well, I thought, it is kind of like CV. A list of achievements of a person. I thought I should list all tangible achievements... No ? Sorry I am new to Wikipedia authoring... Logically, if we want to tell objective facts about a person, then something like CV must be part of the article ! What do you think ? AndreiMikhailov ( talk) 18:15, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

@ AndreiMikhailov If it is a simple, uncontroversial fact not susceptible to argument against, then a primary source is allowed. See WP:PRIMARY. Even self published items can be allowed in some circumstances, see WP:SELFPUB

My interpretation is that it is allowable

I'm sorry to be equivocal. The problem is that these things are a matter of opinion, and then a consensus which may form. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 18:21, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

I see. Do editors dislike links pointing to PDF files ? AndreiMikhailov ( talk) 22:11, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

@ AndreiMikhailov a pdf file is fine provided it is not a pdf isolation. It needs to be on the site for which it is relevant. As an example, if you separated a pdf from its "neighbourhood" perhaps hosting it on Freds_host.com instead of learned_site.com (where it was first published), then it becomes difficult to justify. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:19, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi there, I was continuing to improve my Wikipedia article draft [ Bushfires NT], and wanted some clarification regarding Facebook as a reference. The initial reference was for the custom-made modified Toyota utility vehicles for the purpose of fire fighting. Given that the Facebook link is directly from the origination in question in relation to the topic, is it not appropriate to consider it a primary source over an external link?

Drayden475 ( talk) 20:24, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

@ Drayden475 The answer is "potentially" by Facebooks wholly deprecated. If, however, it is the org's own channel, which I think you say it is, it is allowed to be used to verify simple facts. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 22:15, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi Timtrent, I was wondering how Sayyid Ihsanullah Shah Rashdi got through AfC! Is there no guidelines for source analysis in AfC reviews? I see that you have been here for a while and know a lot more than many of us here, so I thought you would be the right person to get some insights on the AfC process. Also, what are your thoughts on moving it back to the draft space as at this point, it only has 3 sources that includes an essay. Jeraxmoira ( talk) 07:00, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ Jeraxmoira It has been edited substantially since acceptance, but no matter. It was accepted because I believed that it had sufficient notability to survive an immediate deletion discussion, something it has done. However, it was always a borderline acceptance, something we are expected to accept. The community is always a better judge than any one individual, the more so when it is seen to be borderline. Paradoxically, notability is meant to trump poor referencing, so the thinking must be "Is the subject notable?" rather than "These references are poor".

It is both perfectly possible, and also perfectly acceptable, if you consider that I have made a mistake. I may have done so. If I have, and you feel that the article in its current state should not survive, I can have no objection, and do not have any objection of you dispose if it as you see fit.

With regard to returning it to draft, I am not sure that will do more than delay matters. It "hides" it from the community. AfD might be more appropriate, which draws the community's attention to it, and has a wider scope for discussion. If it is sent to AfD I remain neutral in any discussion where I have accepted a draft. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 08:23, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ Jeraxmoira I should have said "Our acceptance criteria are that we accept if, in our personal judgement, a draft has a better than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion process."

In reality many reviewers, especially those starting out on a reviewing "career" ask for near perfection prior to acceptance. I think they see jt as a stain on their review if folk disagree. Instead, they should see that accepting borderline drafts is part of what we are meant to do. We need to act as a filter on quality that does not prevent Wikipedia from growing. As you can understand that 50% chance is a somewhat coarse filter.

AFC has a backstop, automatic unless one has auto patrolled states. New acceptances are queued for WP:NPP review. That filter is much finer. I "unreview" in an NPP sense, drafts I accept where borderline to seek to ensure further eyes.

The simplistic view is that AFC weeds out the great majority of the material that will never, ever survive. NPP quality assures the encyclopaedia th the extent it can. Very often articles are edited further in mainspace between AFC and NPP, and the system works as intended.

I hope that helps your thinking a little further, the more so to understand why a borderline article was accepted. I am one of the few AFC reviewers who will accept borderline drafts. I believe more should work to the acceptance criteria and not seek to polish too highly. Obviously the community may take the action it chooses after any acceptance. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 08:40, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

I completely understand and appreciate your perspective regarding the article's acceptance and I am glad you are one of those who accepts borderline drafts as I always thought we needed a near perfect draft to clear the AfC review from my previous experience. W.r.t the article, I don't think it's fair to draftify it now as it has passed AfC.

I also agree with all of your points except for the paradox statement. I am still thinking about AfD'ing it as the major contributor involved is trying to add back the unreliable sources. I suspect there is a COI as well! Jeraxmoira ( talk) 11:36, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ Jeraxmoira Sending to AfD because of behaviour is not really a good idea. If you have a policy based reason with the article then I see no reason to object. Editor behaviour should be handled another way 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:16, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

That was poorly phrased by me, my bad. If it's going to AfD, it will be for notability only. Jeraxmoira ( talk) 14:06, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ Jeraxmoira notability was verified by @Timtrent I had given bunch of the resources . I don't know why holding grudge with me 🙂 SaneFlint ( talk) 14:08, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ SaneFlint It is important not to take this personally. Jeraxmoira has no dislike of you (or if they have it is not relevant here, though I cannot see why they should). I verified by accepting the draft that, in my personal view, stood a better than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion process. It has done so, principally because there has been no immediate deletion process. Now this part is interesting: Even if a deletion process is started now, it is not an immediate process. Pass or fail that process, I have done my job, though that job is for Wikipedia. Your work has been important. It gave me the chance to seek to improve Wikipedia. You drafted it to seek to improve Wikipedia.

In the future, short, medium, or long term, others may submit the work as it stands then (which is no longer the draft I accepted) to one of our deletion processes. Absolutely any editor has the right to do this (there are a very few exceptions), and any editor has the right to offer an opinion to 'keep', to 'delete' or simply to offer a comment. This is where self restraint comes in. Of course you will wish to offer an opinion. Be very restrained, and wait a day or two before offering that opinion. It must be based on policy, and should be offered once, and well, Those who say the most, who answer every point, tend to lose the argument. That is the way of Wikipedia.

My firm suggestion to you is to consider what you will do next here. Will it be improving articles? Will it be starting a new draft? If you consdier a new draft, read this essay first. There is a process inside it which will help you to succeed,bit only if followed well and if the topic is notable. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 17:57, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

I would like to improve this article according to reviewers opinion SaneFlint ( talk) 18:05, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ SaneFlint You are at liberty to do so. May I suggest you do this for the next two or three days by planning, and only apply edits to it when you are 100% sure they are within verifiability policy. WP:V is your guide.

Let me give you this thought. Often less work is more effective. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 18:14, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

it says **

Its content is determined by previously published information rather than editors' beliefs, opinions, experiences,

means it will be reviewed by those who visits daily and published information which I published before will matter? SaneFlint ( talk) 18:20, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ SaneFlint I think we will benefit from an explanation of where we are now.

• There are no reviewers, not by that title, any more.
• There are no editors with more authority that any other editor, ever, not even our founder Jimbo Wales
• Every editor, any editor, may edit any article, provided their edits are constructive, and within policy. Edits that are not constructive or not within policy may be reverted at any time

This means that we have a totally self policing encyclopaedia. We must also police ourselves. Policing ourselves leads me to those prior references. I'm not going to look at any in any detail now. I am going to ask you to look at them in detail. Are they what we require?

We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, in multiple secondary sources which are WP:RS please. See WP:42. Please also see WP:PRIMARY which details the limited permitted usage of primary sources and WP:SELFPUB which has clear limitations on self published sources. Providing sufficient references, ideally one per fact referred to, that meet these tough criteria is likely to allow this article to remain. Lack of them or an inability to find them is likely to mean that the topic is not suitable for inclusion, certainly today.

So, you must ask yourself two questions:

1. Is this edit, the one you wish to make now, going to improve the article, or is it likely to be criticised by editors, reverted, or perhaps lead to an editor suggesting a deletion process?
2. Is the reference you are going to use compliant with the indented paragraph above?

If the answer to either of these questions is negative, then do not make that edit. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 19:08, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

being a heartbroken by all these and people's behaviour. only you were being kind enough here which i truely appreciate. World is not kind enough for a reason. I don't feel good to do anything with Wikipedia for now. feels totally disappointed. I think urdu and Sindhi etc article aren't easy to understand easily for most reviewers. sometimes they deliberately claims that British based writers articles are not allowed even for a source, etc in early morning everything was all good then reviewers came and saw it was entered so they targeted me it's ok they were right I was wrong enough. thanks again🙂 SaneFlint ( talk) 19:36, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

@ SaneFlint Please do not feel the way, if you are able not to, I mean. Wikipedia is not an easy place, but it is a rewarding hobby.

I am English. I see many attempts by those wth English as a second, or third language to get their drafts accepted. Many succeed, as you have done. Some, like you, find the process difficult.

Wikipedia is online 100% of the time, globally. It is inevitable that editors will arrive at some point ,and edit any article without mercy. I have created many articles here. Some have been so edited that I do not recognise any of my own words, but that makes he happy. I am happy that I started something that others made their own.

Please try very hard to look at it that way. Wikipedia gives us all a chance to be generous. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 19:43, 27 November 2023 (UTC)

Hi there,

You reviewed my draft of ISU Skating Awards ( /info/en/?search=Draft:ISU_Skating_Awards ) yesterday and gave the following feedback:

All other considerations apart this needs a careful look. It is meant to be a generic article abut the awards, so why is there a 2024 intro about that venue? Please work on what you want to wrote about before resubmitting. Once you do that we can give it a competent review

Please could you give me some more information on this as not completely clear.

Are you suggesting as the 2024 Awards are yet to take place we can not include any information/placeholders on this for now?

If i was to remove mentions of 2024 Awards would the draft be approved?

Many thanks! RedTSports ( talk) 10:06, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

@ RedTSports Thank you for asking for more information.

Please take a hard look at your "Key Information" section. It sits at the top and makes the draft about 2024. It needs to go, either from there, or, if you judge it to be relevant, to the correct place in the draft.

With the draft in whatever that new state is it can receive a competent review, which may point out other areas for attention or may see it accepted immediately. I have not looked at it through that lens, so cannot be more specific.

Your task is to look at it through the eyes of a stranger. Ask yourself "Does this make sense?" then ask "Is it readable? Does it invite me in?"

I think you might also choose to combine "About" into the lead section by removing the heading there.

Come back and ask more when you need to. 🇺🇦  Fiddle^Timtrent  Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 10:15, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

Was there anything else for me to look at before i put it in for a review again?
