I'm reviewing the article right now, I was running for ArbCom, then I was hospitalized for illness so I was highly distracted, very sorry for the delay, also with Paul Blair (baseball) he was on my watchlist for a long time, good fella that deserves a better article, wanna work on it. Secret ^account 16:03, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Sorry to hear about your illness. Hope you're doing better. And ArbCom, I didn't follow that but I hope you won. I was sad about Blair too, I met him a few years ago at Camden Yards. Nice guy. I can help work on it later, I just have a few minutes online now during my Christmas vacation. And no worries about Latos. Let me know when your review is done and I'll address what issues exist. I'll be back to my normal editing schedule next week. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:39, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

Yea I had some Blair autographs in my collection very underrated player. I withdrew right before the elections (I was the infamous withdrawn candidate on the ballot). I read the Latos article twice and comments should be done tomorrow, not much to fix. Secret ^account 02:51, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

The article Red Ruffing you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Red Ruffing for things which need to be addressed.

On29 December 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Patrick Schuster, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Patrick Schuster threw four consecutive no-hitters for his high school baseball team, setting a Florida state record? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Patrick Schuster. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Hello Muboshgu, and welcome to the 2014 WikiCup! Your submission page can be found here. The competition will begin at midnight tonight (UTC). There have been a few small changes from last year; the rules can be read in full at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring, and the page also includes a summary of changes. One important rule to remember is that only content on which you have completed significant work, and nominated, in 2014 is eligible for points in the competition- the judges will be checking! As ever, this year's competition includes some younger editors. If you are a younger editor, you are certainly welcome, but we have written an advice page at Wikipedia:WikiCup/Advice for younger editors for you. Please do take a look. Any questions should be directed to one of the judges, or left on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup. Signups will close at the end of January, and the first round will end on 26 February; the 64 highest scorers at that time will make it to round 2. Good luck!

Hi. I notice you recently assessed this article. Who is authorised to make these assessments? What is the process? I have reviewer rights. Am I able to make these assessments? Thanks --Greenmaven (talk) 20:40, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Anyone can change the ratings. We do it based on Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:56, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi!

I dropped by to ask for clarification why you think that the article about Keith Mars in unencyclopedic. I tend to think otherwise. Civeel (talk) 17:38, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

I don't see anything that would make it encyclopedic. Meaning, anything that would make it meet WP:GNG. It's simply a WP:PLOT summary of a TV show character, but doesn't suggest that this character meets any criteria for being notable. I was going to merge them all (I got interrupted by real life before I finished), but can go through with a nomination for deletion if need be. – Muboshgu (talk) 15:47, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

Dear Muboshgu, It has come to our attention that the Wikepedia article for Barry Loudermilk (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Loudermilk) contains inaccurate information in the following online text: “Loudermilk and fellow state senator William Ligon were implicated in a racial discrimination suit brought upon them by a worker in their shared office in 2011. The case was settled by the State of Georgia.”

The article itself states that it was the Democrats who "implicated" the two Senators and not the case itself.

In a reasonable and good faith effort to maintain the accuracy and integrity of Wikipedia’s web content, we respectfully request a removal of the text above. Thank you very much.

Rob Adkerson Loudermilk for Congress — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.155.7.185 (talk) 16:59, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

It's a poor choice of words. They were actually "implicated" by their former employee. I rephrased the sentence. It doesn't mention the Democrats and their call for Loudermilk and Ligon to resign. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:47, 6 January 2014 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Nyjer Morgan, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fly ball (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

		Editor of the Week
		Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week, for superb article creation, specifically related to baseball. Thank you for the great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:AutomaticStrikeout submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

A veteran Wikipedian with over 100,000 edits, Mubsoghu specializes in content creation, having produced almost a thousand articles. Mubsoghu's main editing activity comes in the fields of baseball, politics, US history and comedy. His work is featured on the DYK section of the main page with an almost dizzying frequency and he has nearly 50 GAs. I have personally worked with Mubsoghu at WikiProject Baseball, where his efforts in article maintenance are all the more impressive when coupled with with his prolific content creation. Although Mubsoghu has been privately lauded by many of his fellow editors, I do not believe that his impressive track record is given the widespread recognition that one might expect. He is most definitely a worthy candidate for Editor of the Week.

What exactly is your problem with the edit I made to the above-referenced page? The source I cited was more authoritative than 90% of the other sources cited on that page and you know that very well. The head of the DEA clearly cited the source of her statement (which I directly quoted) in her article; this is it: White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, "What Americans Need to Know about Marijuana," 10; Dutch Health, Welfare, and Sports Ministry, report, April 23, 2004; University of Tilburg (Netherlands), "Coffeeshops in the Netherlands 2003," September 2004. For the record, this was my revision: "Teen use of marijuana in the Netherlands where it is sold legally and openly is lower than in the United States because "[a]fter marijuana use became legal, consumption nearly tripled among 18- to 20-year-olds.... [and then] [a]s awareness of the harm of marijuana grew, the number of cannabis coffeehouses in the Netherlands decreased 36 percent in six years." You want to leave out the recorded history of why the consumption is now lower in the Netherlands and the fact of how the consumption nearly tripled among young people before it decreased. The question is why would you want to hide that information from the public? The current statement about the Netherlands that you are publishing, which leaves out the historical facts, is a clear misrepresentation of the facts. What makes you think that you can publish falsehoods as fact? If you persist in publishing misinformation and refuse to publish accurate facts, I will have to report your misconduct to authorities and media outside of this Wikipedia network. It is really as simple as that. ResearchfirmUSA (talk) 01:55, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
