hello, my name is Joey from Huntington Beach. I have been trying to publish an article on wikipedia, but I can't seem to understand what the current status is and what I am doing wrong. Would love your help. --Kleinhanswiki (talk) 17:36, 21 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Kleinhanswiki: Hi, what issue are you running into? I see you pasted your article on to your talk page; you should instead make a new draft (Draft:Council of Whiskey Masters) and paste your article there. Then, once your article is ready to submit, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Articles for creation/Submitting. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 01:24, 31 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

thank you, that simple direction helped. I submitted... would you please take a look that I did it correctly? Kleinhanswiki (talk) 15:51, 1 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Kleinhanswiki: Yes, you had submitted it correctly. Another editor has reviewed it, and declined it. They've left some feedback on your talk page that you can use to improve the draft. Once it's ready, follow the same instructions to submit it again. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 01:38, 5 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

thanks, I have added citations as requested by the editor, and resubmitted it again once in the draft interface. could you please take a look? for some reason I am not hearing back at all. here's the latest link with reviewer comments already addressed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Council_of_Whiskey_Masters Kleinhanswiki (talk) 16:24, 22 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hi. HamiltonianXLVII here. Just wondering if there are any user page templates to indicate being able to solve a Rubik's cube. If so, what is the code? HamiltonianXLVII (talk) 20:44, 6 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

@HamiltonianXLVII: Hi, there's a bunch of userbox templates for the Rubik's cube at Wikipedia:Userboxes/Puzzles#Rubik's_Cube.

I'm 32 years old, a PhD candidate in Sustainable Development, and it's my first time opening a Wikipedia account. I feel like a baby trying to walk. Please, how do I go about citation? --Basseyotu (talk) 14:17, 19 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Basseyotu: Hi, when you click the edit button, there should be a toolbar that appears at the top of the article. Click on the button that says "Cite", and paste in the website you are trying to cite. If it generates properly, just click insert, and it will insert the citation for you. If there's an error, or you are not citing a website, click on "Manual" next to the "Automatic" tab, choose your citation type, and fill in as much information as you can. Then just click insert on the top right. See Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/2 for more information. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 02:19, 22 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hello!^^, I got a wikipedia account because I heard of the beta feature that translates the page to/for you, i'm trying to read an article about a rural village in Ukraine (which is where my parents came from) however I can't read the native language too well and I can't find a way to read it in english. The article doesn't have a pre-existing english translation and I was hoping that the beta translate tool would do that for me, but I can't find it/the entire page and all the commands are also in Ukrainian too (not just the article) I'm not sure what to do. Have I misunderstood the translate tool? --Rabbit hole binge time (talk) 10:59, 22 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Rabbit hole binge time: Hi, if you're talking about the Wikipedia:Content translation tool, please note that its primarily an editing tool to help editors translate articles into other languages, not a reading tool. Due to some quality concerns, machine translation using that tool is disabled, and creating articles using the tool is only enabled for editors with 30 day old accounts that have at least 500 edits.

If you're simply looking to read an article that's in only Ukrainian, you can use something like Google Translate, or depending on your browser, right clicking and selecting Translate to English. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 22:11, 22 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hello ARandomName123. Nice to meet you.

I am reaching out to you in your role as a Wiki admin and an editor willing to review edit requests. I am the declared COI editor for Bloomberg Philanthropies and would appreciate your review of an edit request I posted on the Talk page: Bloomberg Philanthropies:Public Health details to (re)include.

In May, an editor deleted significant details throughout the article, citing relevance, promotional language, and poor sourcing. I am working incrementally to reintroduce this information with neutral language and better sourcing, to ensure the article presents a comprehensive and up-to-date picture of the Philanthropies work.

A different editor prematurely closed my request to reinstate the details; it has been a struggle to get any editor's attention.

I'd appreciate your review, involvement, and assistance. DLARoss (talk) 15:43, 24 June 2026 (UTC) Reply

Circling back to you, ARandomName123, here. I am so grateful for all your input on this. Since I have been asked to not make edits directly to the article, it would be very helpful if you could implement the changes as we discussed on the Bloomberg Philanthropies Talk page.

Hey -- sorry, I think I stomped on your pblock with my full block. You're welcome to revert mine back to yours if desired, but given their willingness to use LLMs in non-Article namespaces I figured a full block was necessary. ⇒ SWATJester ^{Shoot Blues, Tell VileRat!} 21:52, 4 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

Since your 48 hour block expired, this editor has again been blocked, this time for 2 weeks because of disruptive editing. See their contributions. Perhaps I am mistaken but I am getting some faint alarm bells of a possible LTA, but can't quite parse out who/what though. - Shearonink (talk) 23:01, 7 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

Long Term Abuse, as in WP:LTA. -22's editing is so focused and oddly specific, I can hardly believe they haven't been problematically editing Wikipedia before but maybe they're just the new kid on the block. - Shearonink (talk) 03:04, 9 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hi, ARandomName123. You are cordially invited to the brand new Wikipedia:Mentorship noticeboard. I get the impression sometimes that we mentors are each toiling in our own cubbyhole or hamster wheel, quietly answering mentee questions with little to no interaction with other mentors. I think we have a lot to share and learn from each other, and I know it will make me feel better just having the opportunity to interact with you and other mentors there, and I hope it will for you, too. Looking forward to hearing your feedback. Please take the §Survey when you get there! Mathglot (talk) 00:41, 9 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

As I understand it, deletion does not happen simply based on a vote—as you did by citing a majority decision. The arguments need to be reviewed; how can an entire article be merged into a single paragraph within another article that already exceeds 19,000 words? Egyptiankeng (talk) 21:42, 19 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Egyptiankeng: There is clear consensus in that discussion for deletion. The consensus just happened to match what the majority of editors decided. I did not state that the entire article should be merged into a single paragraph, nor did I state that there should even be a merger. List of 2026 FIFA World Cup controversies#Argentina vs Egypt already has five decent length paragraphs. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 22:54, 19 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Andyob28: It seems your edit was published, but was later reverted as you didn't cite any sources for your analysis. Please note that Wikipedia editors are not supposed to analyse information, and should instead take it from published, reliable sources. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 03:02, 30 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

I realised the recent blockage in editing articles, and when I cross-checked, I found it was due to the use of AI. Yes, I agree I used an AI assistant in writing the articles; that's why the speed was high in publishing, because I first drafted them all once and then got to publish them all. What I did personally is, I gathered raw information, names, stats, screenshot from sources like Boxrec, compiled notes, and brought them to an AI assistant (Claude). It did source verification (web search) and wrote the full article draft, including the wikitext, infoboxes, and citations. I reviewed the outcome against sources. That's why I rejected the "aBomber" nickname when I did my searches; I realised it was not notable. I acknowledge I did not know disclosure was required, and now I understand the problem is the undisclosed volume/speed regardless of accuracy. Thank you for pointing out my problem. I want to confirm with you that I now understand that disclosure alone isn't sufficient under the current policy. Going forward, I will write article content myself and maybe use AI to refine ready content only for grammar and spelling errors and not to generate content. Oliver Samson (talk) 21:22, 29 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

@Oliver Samson: Please acknowledge that you also understand the current WP:NOLLM guidelines, which states any content generated by LLMs is prohibited, regardless of volume/speed. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 03:00, 30 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

Yes, now I understand NOLLM prohibits any LMM-generated content in articles regardless of volume or speed or how minor the edit is; henceforth, I will rely on non-AI tools (browser spellcheck) rather than an LLM even for small fixes. Oliver Samson (talk) 03:47, 30 July 2026 (UTC) Reply
