I don't understand Russian, but a GA in another language Wiki does not mean the song itself is notable. Judging from the content of the Russian wiki, I believe the only notable thing about the song is the music video, which barely does anything to do with the song's significance/structure/lyrics etc. HĐ (talk) 01:52, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Hey, as you know I just made the page List of public art in Cincinnati and in working on that page, I noticed the page Equestrian statue of William Henry Harrison (Cincinnati), which you created a few months ago. I recently moved it to Equestrian statue of William Henry Harrison, as it appears to be the only equestrian statue of the man I can find, and if not the only one, at least the most notable one. If I'm incorrect or there's an issue with this, please let me know. I'm going to try to significantly expand that page and just wanted to let you know and say good work on the public art pages!

Round 1 of the competition has finished; it was a high-scoring round with 21 contestants scoring more than 100 points. Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 55 contestants qualifying. You will need to finish among the top thirty-two contestants in Round 2 if you are to qualify for Round 3. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:
These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. In Round 1, contestants achieved eight featured articles, three featured lists and one featured picture, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. They completed 97 good article reviews, nearly double the 52 good articles they claimed. Contestants also claimed for 135 featured article and featured list candidate reviews. There is no longer a requirement to mention your WikiCup participation when undertaking these reviews. Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or something else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hello:
The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article XLB (Portland, Oregon) has been completed.
You'll notice I masked a lot of text in the "Reception" section. It's out-dated and made the article read like an entry in a travel guide. I feel it's inappropriate in a Wikipedia article, but it's easily restored if you disagree.
Regards,
You seem to be the most experienced editor in that, so I think your opinion on the discussion located at Talk:RuPaul's_Drag_Race_UK_(series_2)#Ground_rules would be helpful. Cheers, RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 15:40, 7 March 2021 (UTC)

Greetings! I noticed you reverted the recent changes I made to Serpent (roller coaster). It is basically a duplication of what already exists in the primary Six Flags AstroWorld article minus the coaster's specs, which are insignificant. This is a junior coaster, of which hundreds if not thousands exist around the world. Am I missing the justification for preserving the article as opposed to changing to a redirect? Many AfD discussions in the past have resulted in redirectordelete (in fact, there's a similar one now on the chopping block: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Branson Coaster, only that one doesn't have redirect as an option).

Hello:
The copy edit you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article The Original Dinerant has been completed.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
It's academic since the article was reviewed and promoted to GA but I find the "as of"s that are scattered throughout the article suggest that it needs updating. I tagged one quote in the Reception section because it was unclear what "prize" is being suggested. The Menu section is out-of-date and comes close to sounding like an advertisement. There were a lot of links to common terms that I removed because they were unnecessary in my opinion.

The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Chi Chi DeVayne. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Chi Chi DeVayne), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page.

The second round of the 2021 WikiCup has now finished; it was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 61 points to advance to Round 3. There were some impressive efforts in the round, with the top eight contestants all scoring more than 400 points. A large number of the points came from the 12 featured articles and the 110 good articles achieved in total by contestants, as well as the 216 good article reviews they performed; the GAN backlog drive and the stay-at-home imperative during the COVID-19 pandemic may have been partially responsible for these impressive figures. Our top scorers in Round 2 were:
Please remember that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of Round 2 but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in Round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them (except for at the end of each round, when you must claim them before the cut-off date/time). When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Hello User:Another Believer. I am a COI/paid editor, and I too live in Portland. Earlier this week, I received an email from an author who would like an article on herself. She has written 4 books, and from a cursory Google search, it appears to me she is notable. She identifies as Black, and I was thinking that rather than taking her on as a client, she may be better served by working with a volunteer editor or volunteer project group that is trying to broaden the representation on Wikipedia - more women, more POC, more LGBTQ, etc. I was wondering if you would be interested in working with her, or might know a group or volunteer who would. Then I could connect her with the appropriate people/person to discuss the project. I'm speaking to her on Tuesday and would love to be able to tell her that someone would like to help. Can you give me your thoughts on the above? I'd greatly appreciate it. Best LeepKendall (talk) 22:18, 7 May 2021 (UTC)

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles. A tag has been placed on Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nominationbyvisiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". 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 deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. (Side note: I mentioned in my edit summary the source was unreliable. I mistakenly misread the IMDb external link as a citation instead of the Entertainment Tonight article, which is a reliable source. I can't alter edit summaries, but I would have nominated the article regardless of that. ) 51.37.97.190 (talk) 21:06, 8 May 2021 (UTC) |

No, there shouldn't, because all the chart positions are fake – check them yourself. Most of the other sources don't mention this song at all. The sock keeps restoring this article full of fake information. Richard3120 (talk) 14:33, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

On23 May 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Statue of Billie Holiday, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the statue of Billie Holiday in Upton, Baltimore, also depicts a crow eating a gardenia? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Statue of Billie Holiday. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Statue of Billie Holiday), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
