hi yes if you like. I’m only intermittently active as a page reviewer and if your articles are sport-related I won’t review them, but no harm in having a look. Mccapra (talk) 04:58, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ok well my view is that notability is doubtful in the case of Logan Levkoff based on the current sourcing. If there were some quality reviews of her books that would change my view. Mccapra (talk) 17:17, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Goodreads and other UGC sites are never acceptable as sources to support notability but yes the others are good and I think will make this subject a pass under WP:AUTHOR. If you add them in (not Goodreads!) I’ll complete the review. Mccapra (talk) 20:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I just discovered that the page has been protected so it can only be moved by an admin so I’m afraid I cam’t move it. Sorry. Mccapra (talk) 06:40, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Actually I am going to leave it. If it has been move-protected that means there is a contentious past history of editing on this topic so the best thing is just to wait till the AfC reviewers reach it and do their work. Mccapra (talk) 11:39, 17 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mccapra, I see that you have requested CSD U1 speedy deletion on User:Mccapra/1963 Attempted Coup in Turkey. I would be happy to carry out this request, except that this page has more than 23,000 edits to it—due to technical limitations, English Wikipedia administrators only have the ability to delete pages that have fewer than 5,000 revisions (see WP:BIGDELETE). If you don't need this page anymore, I would consider just blanking it and leaving it be, but if you are sure that you want to delete the page, then we would need to have a steward delete the page. You can request a steward perform the deletion at this noticeboard: meta:Steward requests/Miscellaneous. Thanks, Mz7 (talk) 01:32, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, I've reversed your move of this article to draft as it was created almost three months ago and there's no clear reason for it to be in draftspace. Feel free to nominate it at AfD. SportingFlyerT·C23:11, 4 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for re-directing the article. I uploaded with the middle name as this is the link from the Order of Australia, but I think the version without the middle name is probably the best one. Thank you for fixing this so quickly. I normally don't add messages to talk pages so perhaps have added to the wrong location. Thank you. User:DrPlantGenomics
@Rlandmann: hi my main concern is that the sources provided are either inaccessible websites (404) or non- existent isbn numbers. The article creator wrote a run of articles today where the sourcing starts off ok and gets gradually worse. There is a lot of what looks like user-generated content in some of the earlier ones. But in the two I tagged as potent hoaxes the sources seem to be completely invented. Mccapra (talk) 23:30, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Many thanks -- there are some deep problems here. I *think* these are based on bad machine translations of maybe other-language wikis. And the Ca.104 article clearly describes an aircraft very different from the one in the picture and which my sources describe. Thanks so much for the heads-up and the extra pair of eyes! --Rlandmann (talk) 23:33, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Rlandmann: I’ve draftified all of them except two, for which I’ve asked another editor’s help checking specialist sources. The rest have fake books, blog sites or other useless citations. Mccapra (talk) 07:43, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In fairness to the contributor, the copyvio was upstream of them, on Polish Wikipedia, which they were translating. So it turns out there was no actual malice there. Yet another reason why direct translations from other Wikipedias is generally a Bad Idea... --Rlandmann (talk) 14:53, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Caesarion8: hi apologies if I reached the wrong conclusion but I spent quite a lot of time trying to work this out. There is an ar.wiki article [Hasan Sabri Pasha] who is apparently the same subject as the article you recently created, and that already has a link to the en.wiki article Hassan Sabry Pasha. If the two men are not the same subject then perhaps you have chosen the wrong image to illustrate the one you created? Mccapra (talk) 12:47, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
No, the picture in the Arabic Wikipedia version is the one who is wrong. The picture belongs to Hussein Sabri, brother of queen Nazli. And the picture is from the Al-Musawar Magazine and on its caption is written Hussein Sabri. However in wikicommons it's attributed to Hassan Sabri, probably whoever posted it mixed them both up. Caesarion8 (talk) 13:35, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Caeserion8: ok I’ve passed your article and added WikiProjects. However I’m really not convinced about the photograph. The photo has been on Wikimedia Commons since 2013 as Hassan Sabri Pasha, not Hussein, and it’s used extensively on en.wiki and ar.wiki in multiple articles, so an awful lot of editors must have got it wrong if this is actually Hussein. Mccapra (talk) 23:31, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I found the full picture with the caption on from a Facebook, where it shows the version of Al-Musawr magazine, it reads "Hussein Sabri, Governor of Alexandria..."
If you google search the image [1] it’s clear pretty much every use of it confirms it is Hassan and not Hussein. The two exceptions are a blog spot posting and Alexandria Sporting Club, neither of which I’d regard as authoritative. It is really beyond belief that so many uses of the photo of a prime minister would be wrong. It is much more plausible that two user-generated sites mistakenly used the image of a prime minister with a very similar name by mistake. Mccapra (talk) 23:40, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Lastly, if you search Hasan Sabri Pasha pictures, you will see he looks nothing like the man in the photo. And if you see other pictures of Hussein Sabri Pasha, he clearly looks the same as in the photo. Other than sharing the same surname and smiliar names. It's probably that Hassan Sabry Pasha is more popular than Hussein, that's why whoever attributed the photo to him mixed them up. If you search Hussein Sabri in Arabic, all results will be about Hassan Sabri instead, and you can't even find a single article about Hussein. I had to search in all kind of books and sites online to find informations about him. Thank you for your reviewing the article. Caesarion8 (talk) 00:18, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
