Hello! I am making a new page and wanted to ask if you could look at it. It is currently in my sandbox. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:George_Fidel/sandbox --George Fidel (talk) 06:35, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @George Fidel, sorry for the late reply, I've been a bit busy lately. I've looked through the draft and I don't think it is currently ready. I think some improvements need to be made in regards to tone and referencing. Sources that are published by or related to the subject should not be referenced in the article, and the claims that these sources support should be more adequately referenced or removed. The tone should be neutral, and puffery should be avoided.

I'll be happy to look over it again, but before you continue working on the draft, could you first make sure that the subject meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines. In general, all subjects of an article should have multiple sources providing significant, independent and in depth coverage to them to merit an article, if that does not exist, the draft may not be approved. Justiyaya 20:43, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you @Justiyaya for reviewing the draft. I'll try and get better links for referencing the article and also check on the tone. George Fidel (talk) 08:43, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be appropriate to change "Spinoffs" to "Subgroups" or "Subunits" under Background Information? This would apply to other K-Pop groups as well. "Spinoff" has a strong connotation related to TV in which some element of the original work is turned into something new and existing on its own while still in the same universe as the original. In K-Pop, a subunit exists under the umbrella of its main group. In Stray Kids, 3RACHA existed prior to the main group, so spinoff does not feel like an appropriate descriptor. I apologize if this was answered somewhere, I am somewhat new to editing. --Melbydwaekk (talk) 15:50, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Melbydwaekk, what you are seeing comes from Template:Infobox musical artist. Generally, for edits on such a widely used template, you should establish consensus first before making or requesting a change on the template's talk page.

I think this term originated from the 2021 removal of the "Associated acts" field. It has already been discussed by a few editors in 2022 with most agreeing that the term is flawed but nothing (I believe) came out of that.

If you'd like to propose a change, start a section at Template talk:Infobox musical artist. I think it's an interesting and valid point to raise :D If you'd like me to do it, I'll be happy to but would be a bit busy before the weekend. Happy editing! Justiyaya 19:22, 10 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mentor,

I'm trying to create an wikipage for a person. We have all citations, articles everything. Please let me know how to create a detailed wikipage. Thanks. --Astromoorthy (talk) 04:16, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We have added a wikipage earlier but now I couldn't see the page. Please let us know what happen or do we need to create a new one.

Thanks. --Astromoorthy (talk) 04:18, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Astromoorthy, you've used "we" when referring to yourself, note that shared accounts are not allowed on Wikipedia.

It'd help a lot if you could give the name of the article/page that you've made so I can try to find out why (or if) it was deleted. Nothing on your account seems to indicate that you've created a page. Justiyaya 04:36, 15 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that we, . This is Moorthy. It is not shared, this page is my page. I want to create a wikipage, can you let me know how to start about it. Astromoorthy (talk) 14:57, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Astromoorthy, WP:1st would be a good place to go to get some guidance. Do know that writing a new article on Wikipedia is not really encouraged for beginners and could be really discouraging. You should try some tasks in the task center first if you'd like an easier start.

I'd still encourage you to point me to the name of your last article or provide more context about the one you are trying to make right now. It'd help me give much better advice Justiyaya 18:51, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, THank you so much for the suggestions. I have written my article, added citations, references everything and kept it under sandbox. But I cldnt see the publich button or even to point you. pelase help how to do that. Thanks. Astromoorthy (talk) 05:11, 14 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Astromoorthy if you tell me the name of the page I could move it for you if the article is up to standards. Justiyaya 21:48, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. This is the page name - User:Astromoorthy/sandbox : Dr. S. Pothuvudaimoorthy. Can you please check.

It would be great if you can check. Thanks. Astromoorthy (talk) 10:41, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Astromoorthy, writing a autobiography is not a good idea, we generally strongly discourage it and the subject does not seem notable. In most cases, the article will not be published and it'd be a much better use of your time to do something else instead. I should've noticed the page earlier and told you but I forgot to check for it when I saw your last message. Justiyaya 01:15, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Justiyaya THanks for the feedback. I totally understand. But his is about an astrology and astrologer. When i read few wikipages, there are many pages about a single person. Not some topic, just about a single person especially film directors, singers, sportsperson, businessman, doctors etc et. Then any other issue in this page. Because this page is not for marketing purpose or any promotions.

Just wanted to understand in detail. Astromoorthy (talk) 15:38, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Astromoorthy, we usually only accept articles with multiple independent secondary sources providing significant coverage to the subject. Which means that the sources must cover the subject beyond brief mentions, be reputable, and not be paid for or connected to the subject. All the links in the article appears to be the same text republished as paid for promotional pages, which is why I do not believe that it could be published. Justiyaya 22:02, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dear @Justiyaya Thank you for your feedback. I would like to clarify that I have not paid for any of the citations. The publications were either reached out to by me or approached me directly due to my work on building a temple, writing a book on astrology, and exploring wedding astrology. If these were paid articles, I would have provided distinct content and images to each. Additionally, there are references from reputable Tamil newspapers, which I’m unable to upload due to the platform's limitations.

I kindly request to do the needful and I appreciate your understanding and assistance.

Thanks. Astromoorthy (talk) 11:10, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Astromoorthy I mean... regardless of whether you've paid for it or not, they are clearly promotional in nature. I'm sorry, the draft has a extremely low chance at getting published that I just don't think it's worth your time to continue. Justiyaya 13:21, 8 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I have a question about tables.

On the article linked below, the table is wide enough that you need to scroll horizontally if you want to reach its end. I want to shorten it in order to fit it inside the webpage (no horizontal scrolling needed) and also to fit some images on the side for some reference.

Is it possible to shorten the width of a table? If so, how? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

How can I create a page for my soccer team? --Merqalicious (talk) 01:25, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Merqalicious, that's not usually a good idea. In short, if your soccer team should get an article, someone (a wikipedia editor) would likely write an article for it. Writing about an article something you have a conflict of interest with is usually discouraged. For the policies surrounding it, check out WP:N and WP:COI.

Hello Justiyaya,

I am really interested in learning more about Wikipedia! I really like your talents and my main goal is reverting vandalism and joining NPP! ScribblingScribe - TALK 17:42, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello ScribblingScribe, Wikipedia:Cleaning up vandalism is a really good way to get started reverting vandalism. NPP is a bit too early for you, maybe after some work in reverting and some article creation. I'm not as active on Wiki at the moment unfortunately and adoption is usually for those with a bit more time spent here. However, I'll be happy to guide you and answer any questions that may come up if you want to text me on discord or through a thread here if that's what you prefer. Justiyaya 21:46, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,

I just submitted this Draft page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:DRAFT_-_Climate_Active

I'd like to remove the "DRAFT - " from the name, how can I do this? I can't seem to find the "move" button as the guides suggest.

Thank you --DejaVu809 (talk) 05:11, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @DejaVu809, it appears that someone already moved the page for you, thanks for messaging me. I've also seen that the draft was already declined, and I'll try to provide a bit more insight into why it was. The biggest issue in the article is notability, specifically, an article needs to be based off reliable sources that are secondary and independent to the subject. Adding a few newspapers covering the subject in detail, books, articles, magazines or even TV programs, could prove notability, our inclusion criteria for subjects. If sources like these do not exist but the subject is mentioned in reliable secondary and independent sources, it may be useful to send the content to an existing article, like Climate change in Australia#Policies and legislation.

Greetings mentor,

This may be a rather simple question, but how do I archive a source?

Thanks and God bless. Bis-Serjetà? (talk) 20:10, 21 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bis-Serjetà? Great question! Not a simple one as there are plenty of ways to do it. If you'd like to archive one single source, using the Archive URL (linking to something like Internet Archive) alongside the Archive date field after clicking on a citation would get you there. If you want to do all sources on a single page, or just want something automated to do it for you, I found the internet archive bot to be helpful. Justiyaya 01:51, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Justiyaya,

Hi Kevin, thanks for the message, it's been a while. The article is looking really good right now! I went ahead and marked it as patrolled. There might be some interesting sources for you at google news archive to expand it just a tad bit more if you choose to. The article is quite extensive as it is and looks quite good. Feel free to message back whenever with more questions or things like these :D Justiyaya 07:06, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there I have not edited a Wikipedia page before and would welcome some help so I don't mess anything up.

I work for the Windhorse Trust, we own Abbey House in Cambridge (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Abbey_House,_Cambridge&_welcomesurveytoken=d7gfb2rokrc1m5ij0d0reirjmdra0gpr&source=welcomesurvey-originalcontext). We have a duty of care towards our tenants who live there.

The Abbey House Wikipedia page contains several photos of Abbey House uploaded by an a 3rd party (cmglee) who we have no relationship with.

Some of the tenants are unhappy about some of the photos of the property on the Wikipedia page for safety and security reasons and would like them removed from the page.

How would I go about this?

Thanks John --WindhorseTrust (talk) 14:10, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi WindhorseTrust, this is complicated. The image was uploaded by Cmglee, who took the photos themselves. I don't see a copyright/legal reason why we would be required to remove it and I don't think there is any policy surrounding the requested removal of interior images. I wouldn't count on it being done but you could email info-en-qwikimedia.org, which is from what I've gathered the correct way to go about requesting a change in an article that you are involved with. Do not edit the article yourself as you are related to the subject.

On another note, if you would like to continue working under the same account, please request a change of username. Wikipedia does not allow accounts that hold the name of a group as each account could only belong to a single person by policy. Additionally, review the paid editing policy if you are going to continue working on subjects where you are professionally related – note that you must disclose a conflict of interest on your user page (something like I am being paid by ___ for my contributions on ___ would suffice).

I sent you a memo, which is a type of message that can be sent to offline users and will be shown the next time they log on. If you want to, you can enable receiving memos as emails with /msg NickServ set emailmemos on.

Unrelated question: should I use |first=John 1, Jane 2 |last=Doe 1, Doe 2 or |first=John |last=Doe |first2=Jane |last2=Doe in citations with multiple authors? I personally think the latter format looks cleaner. WaterQuark (talk) 21:18, 9 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings mentor,

I was wondering about creating a disambiguation article titled "2025 census". For your information, it will be the newest disambiguation article in a series of disambiguation articles titled "[YEAR] census", with each containing a list of articles about censuses which occurred in a certain year.

Currently, there is only 1 article about a census which will occur in 2025. Should I create the "2025 census" disambiguation article now or wait until another article about another census in 2025 is created?

Thanks in advance! --𝔅𝔦𝔰-𝔖𝔢𝔯𝔧𝔢𝔱𝔞? 18:40, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bis-Serjetà? I think it would be a good idea to hold off on creating the disambig until another article is written. Justiyaya 18:49, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Rissadoll, editors on Wikipedia does a lot of things. There's article writing, maintenance, anti-vandalism, and this, answering questions. See WP:Task Center for a beginner friendly list of tasks, some of which you can do now! Justiyaya 07:16, 17 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Justiyaya! Thanks for being my mentor. Can you help me with this thing I did in my sandbox? I translated the original Spanish and listed the references but the references don't appear well.

Ok --Abdulkadir Nor mohamud (talk) 23:14, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings mentor,

I have been editing the "List of Eastern Orthodox saints" for so long now that the article has grown to over 315,000 bytes in size and around 900 entries in the list. I plan on further expanding the list to over 2000 entries. My question to you is, when should I split the article into several articles by alphabet? Currently, the article is at that awkward size where it's very large as one entity, taking quite long to load on certain wifi connections, yet it seems it's too small to be split into 2 or more articles. Thanks in advance. --𝔅𝔦𝔰-𝔖𝔢𝔯𝔧𝔢𝔱𝔞? 20:14, 1 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Bis-Serjetà? I do agree that it is quite large. I'm not that great with lists or splitting pages. I don't think I've seen a list that is split alphabetically though but rather more so those that are split by characteristic (see Lists of British people and Lists of Americans). If you were to split it into multiple pages it'd be better to do it by era? It would probably be more helpful to WP:Help Desk this, great question as always :D Justiyaya 03:51, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please help me write an article? --Braleomengo (talk) 08:34, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Braleomengo, editors don't usually take requests to write an article. Writing a new article as a beginner is extremely difficult, looking at some other tasks to start with would probably be better. For the draft that's just been declined, please read the notes the reviewer left in full and make improvements before resubmitting. Justiyaya 08:40, 8 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

January 2025 Backlog Drive | New pages patrol
On 1 January 2025, a one-month backlog drive for new pages patrol will begin in hopes of addressing the growing backlog. Barnstars will be awarded based on the number of articles and redirects patrolled. Each article review will earn 1 point, while each redirect review will earn 0.2 points. Streak awards will be given out based on consistently hitting point thresholds for each week of the drive. Barnstars will also be granted for re-reviewing articles previously reviewed by other patrollers during the drive. Interested in taking part? Sign up here.

No, not Nicole’s law. On the main page it says he has a son Joseph II. He is a minor and should not be mentioned. BApbc (talk) 02:08, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@BApbc I looked through the page again and tried searching for "II" but still cannot find it. Can you point me to the sentence? I see nothing in the infobox Justiyaya 02:19, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme Kind of, while there is Wikipedia:Requested articles, from my limited experiance using the list, they mostly seem to be topics that might not be that notable. There's also Wikipedia:Most-wanted articles, but I don't find that extremely useful as well. What do you enjoy or would like to write about? Justiyaya 02:51, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme The subject appears to be probably notable and a lot of results are turning up on Google books. Good start, some expansion with the google books scans would be nice. Picking notable/interesting subjects are quite hard, I should've probably asked you to check with me before you started writing but you seem to have chosen a quite good one. Well done, there's a lot more to write about her though. Justiyaya 05:39, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

News and updates for administrators from the past month (December 2024).

Guideline and policy news

• Following an RFC, Wikipedia:Notability (species) was adopted as a subject-specific notability guideline.
• A request for comment is open to discuss whether admins should be advised to warn users rather than issue no-warning blocks to those who have posted promotional content outside of article space.

Technical news

• The Nuke feature also now provides links to the userpage of the user whose pages were deleted, and to the pages which were not selected for deletion, after page deletions are queued. This enables easier follow-up admin-actions.

Arbitration

• Following the 2024 Arbitration Committee elections, the following editors have been elected to the Arbitration Committee: CaptainEek, Daniel, Elli, KrakatoaKatie, Liz, Primefac, ScottishFinnishRadish, Theleekycauldron, Worm That Turned.

Miscellaneous

• A New Pages Patrol backlog drive is happening in January 2025 to reduce the number of unreviewed articles and redirects in the new pages feed. Sign up here to participate!

I was wondering what is Arbcom. There is no such thing in simple wiki. — Cactus🌵 ^{spiky ouch} 08:52, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Cactusisme, welcome back! WP:Arbcom is a panel of editors elected by the community that acts as the final step in resolving behavioral issues on the site using cases and motions, similar to a justice system. They also appoint checkusers (users able to view and link IPs of accounts), oversighters (allows user to suppress edits and view suppressed edits, usually for accidentally leaked personal information), deal with cases with private evidence, and manage contentious topics. This is probably a good overview on it and most of it you would probably not need to be that concerned with as an editor. Contentious topics would be a helpful read if you wish to edit in those areas. Justiyaya 09:08, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Are you part of them? — Cactus🌵 ^{spiky ouch} 09:47, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme WP:WPAFC reviewers can review drafts. I'll look over yours today if I have the time. Justiyaya 04:55, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme I've taken a look. You have a lot of sources in the article, but only a few are usable or useful. Wikipedia has a higher standard for sourcing for biographies of living people, and the amount of sources that are unreliable is much higher than it should be. The WP:FORBES source is unusable, [1] has the note "this transcript does not go through our standard editorial process and may contain inaccuracies..." on it, and [2]. The original reviewer left a note saying that it lacked sources to show notability, and I would agree. While there are enough reliable sources providing coverage, whether it is significant or not is questionable. I find a significant amount of the sources in the article just to be quotes from the subject themselves, [3] and [4] for starters. These sources are not that useful for notability, which requires significant coverage by multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.

I would recommend starting a new project if additional sources cannot be located (I haven't done a thorough search yet). This happens a lot to newcomers and is very very common. Let the draft be in case new sources surface. Check with me before you start writing your next article with WP:THREE best sources on the subject.

As a separate note, @Taabii: I don't think this helps a newcomer understand policy much. It's better usually to explain to them why the sources are insufficient than simply pointing them to policy. Really really impressive reviewing work in the last few days though, well done! Justiyaya 15:21, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Justiyaya Thank you so much for your guidance. At first, I thought that everyone would read and understand all the guidelines on their own as I did. However, it's true that people need more active help in understanding them if they are new contributors. From now on, I will act upon your suggestions and do my best to make newcomers understand the guidelines and policies. Appreciate your kind recognition of my reviews, it is sweet! I love sharing my knowledge on Wikipedia because it has been one of my greatest teachers. Taabii (talk) 16:30, 25 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Justiyaya, my I kindly ask you to reconsider your decision to move page Igor R. Janev into Drafts. Me and other users contributed to improvements of that article and included more references. Comparable to categories related to Macedonian diplomats, sources here are many times more numerous. (For instance, in many cases there were no references at all.) Article on Igor Janev exist on 18 Wikies already and Wikimedia Commons.Academician.NYAS (talk) 14:17, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Academician.NYAS as per the note at the bottom of your talk page, writing an autobiography is strongly discouraged. Standards vary by wiki, and some of the other language articles probably shouldn't exist as well. I do not think any experienced reviewer would accept the draft in its current form or in any other version in the past year. I trust that your valuable time could be better spent elsewhere, so I've rejected the draft. If you would like to become a volunteer on the site, choose a task from the task center and start helping out. Justiyaya 17:25, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! By when will my page be reviewed? --Madhunagpal (talk) 07:20, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Madhunagpal, the draft will be reviewed after you click the blue submit button on the top of the page. If you are editing with a conflict of interest, you need to disclose it with a statement on your userpage. As of now, the draft does not have inline citations in several sections (which is needed for biographies of living people), has a promotional tone (language on wikipedia needs to be neutral), and does not have multiple reliable secondary sources providing in depth coverage to the subject that demonstrates notability. Please ensure the last point, notability, is resolved before continuing as no amount of editing can overcome a lack of notability.

Lastly, I would advise against making an article as the first thing you do, especially the draft you have. If you are here to make Wikipedia a better place, there are much easier and better ways to get started. Reply to this if you need any more help! Justiyaya 08:59, 1 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Can you review Draft:Eugenie Bormann? Thanks — Cactus🌵 ^{spiky ouch} 01:18, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme I do not think the article could be approved at the current state. Though I have little knowledge of the language, the majority of the sources appears to be by the subject themselves. Like I said before, it might be helpful to ask me before starting a draft about the subject's notability (providing your three best sources that would satisfy WP:GNG). I might take a closer look later if I have time but I'm a bit busy at the moment. Justiyaya 01:57, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, so delete? — Cactus🌵 ^{spiky ouch} 02:01, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not having enough sources to establish notability in the article doesn't mean there is not. Sorry if I wasn't clear. You can always find more sources, add them in the article, and make it better that way. Justiyaya 02:19, 7 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cactusisme Would you be interested in working on Draft:Virginia Moore? I think there is sustained media attention on her work outside of COVID interpretation to meet WP:GNG, but also she might (I think) meet WP:ANYBIO with getting the Kentucky Colonel.

Hi! I'm new to this, but have been wanting to contribute to Wikipedia for a while now. Is the edit I made today on the page for Jesse Watters within the guidelines? I just want to make sure. --Affinitystar (talk) 05:22, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya @Affinitystar! Thank you so much for the edit and for the question. Generally, we would not include quotes from a primary source, such as quotes in an interview/panel directly from the subject (as with the first source you've added), that hasn't been quoted by a reliable secondary source. While I do think your section could technically be included if LGBTQ Nation is considered reliable in this subject area (I'm not sure), I still would see if it receives wider attention to include it. I almost never edit articles surrounding US politics though. I've asked this on the teahouse, thanks for the interesting question. Justiyaya 05:59, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, @Affinitystar! I'd advise against including this material if these are the best sources. Controversial material in biographies of living persons should have strong sourcing to demonstrate that the claim is not only true but also noteworthy, to maintain a neutral point of view. The current sources don't seem to meet that bar. Media Matters is heavily opinionated and only "marginally reliable", according to WP:MEDIAMATTERS. According to this RSN discussion, LGBTQ Nation is an opinionated source, and many editors believe its use should be limited. The other sources don't discuss Watters's comments.

@Affinitystar I've removed it per the second opinion. I would like to note that boldly editing like this is encouraged by policy and I'd encourage you to keep on doing so (we learn by doing on Wikipedia :). If you don't understand the policy, feel free to ask for clarification here! I'm always here to help.

@Helpful Raccoon thanks for looking it up on RSN and for approaching this from a BLP lens as well, I really should've thought of that. I'll watch your talk page as thanks lol Justiyaya 14:02, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
