Plus Life Media Page Comment

[edit ]
Latest comment: 6 months ago 2 comments2 people in discussion

Hi! About this comment: "Comment: I think this still needs a broader range of sources, rather than one NGO and the source itself. Can you find any secondary news coverage of this organisation? Smallangryplanet (talk) 13:16, 22 January 2026 (UTC)"

There are multiple secondary sources, including GLAAD, CFDA, Out, Essence, Blavity, Self, ABC and more. Curious what additional sources can be added or where to find them? Appreciate the assistance! vfrank (talk) 13:34, 22 January 2026 (UTC) Reply

A lot of the sources appear to be about Karl Schmid, or by Karl Schmid, or from the organisation itself, rather than about Plus Life Media itself. Does that make sense? The awards citations are also duplicated several times, so I would check out WP:REFNAME also. Smallangryplanet (talk) 17:36, 22 January 2026 (UTC) Reply

Feedback for AfC - Draft: The Eganville Leader

[edit ]
Latest comment: 6 months ago 3 comments2 people in discussion

Hi there,

I can understand why you might think I made that page using AI, but I most certainly did not.

I’m a professional newspaper reporter and I read a lot. Apologies if my words sound a bit robotic, or as if everything is a big deal.

I will ask some others to peruse the draft over, dig up a few more sources and re-word some stuff. But I promise you: I wrote this all myself from scratch. As for the more formal tone, I’ll read up on Wikipedia Style and see what I can do.

I have already submitted this article once before and learned a lot from the experience, but onwards and upwards, right? I don’t mean to be a pest, but what I wrote on the draft was all me (I have a tendency to be fluffy from time to time).

I am familiar with editorializing, so I’ll be sure to ready everything over a few times.

I would appreciate if my draft was not deleted, since have been working on it since my first submission was declined.

Thank you for understanding.

Cheers,

Hi @Slipperyonice! Sorry for the misdiagnosis!! I would recommend having maybe a look over at WP:NPOV, I know it can be tricky when editing something you're closely connected to. Would be happy to take another look. Smallangryplanet (talk) 00:22, 24 January 2026 (UTC) Reply
Thanks very much for understanding.

Hi Smallangryplanet, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone! signed, Rosguill talk 15:16, 28 January 2026 (UTC) Reply

Speedy deletion declined: 2025 AFC eChampions League Elite

[edit ]
Latest comment: 6 months ago 2 comments2 people in discussion

Hello, and welcome to NPP! I wanted to let you know that I have declined your G11 and WP:A7 speedy deletion nomination of 2025 AFC eChampions League Elite. The article does not qualify for G11 speedy deletion because it does not contain blatant advertising. Further, because sports seasons can be notable (and the article has three sources now), I believe the 2025 AFC eChampions League Elite has a credible claim to significance, which is a lower standard than notability. If you do not think the subject meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines, feel free to nominate for deletion at Articles for Deletion. If you have any questions about this. Please let me know. Take care, Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 02:00, 30 January 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hi @Significa liberdade! Thank you for the kind feedback. I was a little iffy about if that was a valid delete and I should have asked at the NPP help board. Thanks again! Smallangryplanet (talk) 09:17, 30 January 2026 (UTC) Reply

January–February 2026 NPP drive - Phase 2

Latest comment: 6 months ago 1 comment1 person in discussion
NPP unreviewed article statistics as of February 02, 2026

Welcome to Phase 2 of the January–February 2026 NPP drive. During Phase 1, we reviewed 16,658 articles and 4,416 redirects, and there is currently a backlog of 16,475 articles and 23,782 redirects in the queue. Fantastic job! Completing 22,502 patrols in the first phase made a significant dent in the backlog. Let's keep our foot on the gas for Phase 2, and I hope we can achieve even more reviews than Phase 1. Best of luck!

Information icon Hi, Smallangryplanet. Thanks for patrolling new pages. I've declined your deletion request for a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to read the new tutorial for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Thanks! ~2026-80954-2 (talk) 15:26, 9 February 2026 (UTC) Reply

User:IPOfAFlower, it is not remotely odd. When active I remove incorrect speedy tags on a daily basis, though I am not a regular and thus do not have an account. A link to WP:RFD was provided in my edit summary, and the instructions for how to proceed are there. Normally I would offer to do them myself if there was an issue, but I do not plan to edit much until the last week of this month. ~2026-80954-2 (talk) 20:35, 9 February 2026 (UTC) Reply

Your behaviour on pages Hamas and Talk:Hamas

[edit ]
Latest comment: 5 months ago 1 comment1 person in discussion

Recently, on the pages Hamas and Talk:Hamas, you seem to have several times violated the policies of Wikipedia:Consensus and Ownership behaviour, and to have abused page Talk:Hamas.

1. Directly after my edit of 21Nov2025 on page Hamas with elaborate motivation, you reverted it with no more substantial explanation than saying "This misrepresents the RS" (22Nov2025), which is a too vague ‘reason’ because it doesn’t say which quote would be misrepresented and in what sense. Thus this revert violated our obligation to clearly explain every edit in the edit summary, as stated in WP:CONSENSUS. (It is very likely, you learned and copied this trick from Raskolnikov.Rev who demonstrated it in Sept2024, Oct2024 and April2025. I’ve warned Rsk about this behaviour; he seems to have ignored that; right after this posting to you I’ll warn him again.) After those four much too vague words in your edit summary however you spent another 44 words in that edit summary on grumbling against the opposing editor, which probably isn’t helpful for the process of reaching a consensus. If you’ll continue reverting edits without clearly saying(in the edit summary!) what’s wrong with the edit in question, I’m afraid I’ll have to request you to be sanctioned for apparently lacking the skills or the willingness to cooperate constructively and collaboratively.

2. Talk pages are meant for pursuing consensus in cases of edit disagreements, by reading the arguments of the opponent, criticizing or even rejecting them but in a respectful and constructive way, in search for some ‘common ground’ with the opponent and thus some compromise or consensus. But in the talk section about my motivation for my edit of 21Nov2025, in your reply of 22Nov you don’t react on any of my arguments of 21Nov. Also you don’t give a clear and concrete reason for your edit revert of 16 minutes earlier; so basically your talk posting of 22Nov2025 is misuse of a talk page discussion for attacking and grumbling against another editor – even though you’ve been officially warned, on 2 Oct 2025, to not treat Wikipedia as battleground. In that 22Nov talk posting (of 246 words), you say no more about my edit than: "I have already explained in great detail that your edit misrepresents the RS". But regardless whether that is true or not, it certainly is not an explanation of what you consider to be wrong with the edit.

3. But your: "I have already explained in great detail that your edit misrepresents the RS" is, unfortunately, not even true; therefore, in effect you have not given any argument at all (not even indirectly), on 22Nov, against my 21Nov edit proposal with fully new motivation; but nevertheless you bluntly reverted it. This either implies that parts of the article Hamas in your opinion can’t be edited and have been declared sacred by you, which would violate WP:CON, or that editor Cb can’t be allowed by you to edit parts of article Hamas, which would violate WP:AGF what you’ve already been explicitly and officially warned for on 2 Oct 2025; in both cases it is an example of Ownership behaviour.
What really happened in your posting of 22Oct (that you link to on 22Nov), is: we had a (beginning of a) discussion on 16Oct–3Nov2025, not about the edit (proposal) of 21Nov2025 but about a different proposal of 16Oct2025. On 22Oct, you disagreed with my edit proposal of 16Oct or with parts of its motivation, and tried to argue what was wrong with them. But after my reply on 3Nov you never replied back.

Summarizing: you’ve used these three transparent tricks (1:a too vague reverting ‘reason’ in the edit summary; 2:saying "I have already explained" on talk page in stead of actually explaining; 3:misrepresenting your own old talk posting), to make it seem to the superficial observer that you’ve properly motivated your edit revert of 22Nov2025, while you actually have not; which seems to me a form of gaming the system. Today though, I’m planning to start a new talk section (Talk:Hamas#The statement about ‘1967 borders’) about this same edit proposal of 21Nov2025 which until now seems to have only been obstructed by you and one other editor through tricks, violating WP:CON, Ownership behaviour, and ‘gaming the system’. I hope to see you participating in that discussion in a constructive way, in line with WP:CONSENSUS and WP:AGF.

By the way: in case Smallangryplanet wants to reproach me again for my speculating, 30Jan2025, that Seurat might be a ‘propagandist’: this was a possibility that sprang to my mind when I read Seurat’s citation "acceptance of the 1967 borders in the Cairo Agreement in 2005" etc. in our article, and saw how it was paraphrased in our article. As soon as I finally got hold(Feb2025) of Seurat’s whole book I understood there’s no reason to mistrust Seurat. --Corriebertus (talk) 11:23, 14 February 2026 (UTC) Reply

Draft:Tomas_Lang

[edit ]
Latest comment: 5 months ago 2 comments2 people in discussion

Thanks for the comments regarding the Draft:Tomas_Lang that you reviewed early December. The page has been edited by adding external references and removing some of the other references. Among others, links were added to an event hosted at the University of Chile in late October 2025 to celebrate the legacy of Professor Tomas Lang, whose recording is available on-line. His co-authorship of books released by major publishers is highlighted, given that such authorship is one of the established criteria for notability.

I will appreciate your feedback on this new version, which was submitted for review in early January.

Thanks in advance. Jh2024 (talk) 21:00, 20 February 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hi @Jh2024 - from first glance I still don't necessarily think this article passes the requirements we have for academics - you can read more about that here - but it's still featuring mostly citations to the subject's own work (which is not in and of itself notable, regardless of publisher). It might be worth reaching out on general help pages like WP:TEAHOUSE or WP:COMPSCI (more specific project devoted to computer science) to ask editors for help sourcing this article.

You marked this article, which I contributed to, with the "reads like an ad" comment. It would be helpful to know what items read like an ad, since I was going for pretty dry and factual, omitting just about all adjectives. Was it the sentence about shifting to more unrestricted grants? Or something else? I am planning to do more work on nonprofit organizations and leaders, and so advice on this should pay future dividends. JRandomF (talk) 18:11, 8 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

{{SAFESUBST:Void|


Hi Smallangryplanet. I'd like to discuss the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence pages, which you kindly reviewed (ie, two pages: 'Draft:ARC Centre of Excellence for Engineered Quantum Systems' and 'Draft:ARC Centre of Excellence in Exciton Science'). I'm not quite sure how to do this - can you help me? The ARC CoEs are the country's highest level of (non medical) research institution and I beleive there is valuable information that can be recorded on these pages, once they have been created. (I do realise my starting pages are short, as you said). If you look at other existing ARC CoE pages tho (there are around a dozen of them), other Aust science editors have made valuable additions documenting the Centres' scientific discoveries, notable persons and highlights, once there is a 'base' to work from. (Each Centre usually runs for seven years btw, and they probably have a few hundred researchers working at them in that time - they're pretty large.) A bullet list of the COEs on the ARC page would not accomplish this. My thought was to create the 'starting point' for these two COEs, and then myself and others could add more value later. I think there are other COEs that could have similarly useful pages, but figured to start with these two. (Partly in case they were rejected!) Errolhunt (talk) 22:37, 12 May 2026 (UTC)ErrolhuntReply

BoyTheKingCanDance , Rosiestep , SunDawn , and Vanderwaalforces were inducted into the NPP Hall of Fame for having two separate years of 2,000+ article reviews.

January–February backlog drive

The experimental two-month long backlog drive concluded with 183 reviewers patrolling over 27,761 articles and 35,309 redirects, earning over 36,836 points. Congratulations to JTtheOG , who achieved first place with 6,484.6 points in this drive.

May backlog drive

An article-only backlog drive is currently underway. We are hoping to make a big dent in the backlog. You can read more about it or join at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2026.

PageTriage

An attempt was made to get the New Pages Feed to sort by date marked as reviewed instead of date created. However we had to revert it due to bugs. We may try again in the future. You can subscribe to the Phabricator ticket if you're interested in following along.

Hey,

Evidence and other stuff should be discussed at AE but I came here only to tell you that the first 3 paragraphs after Diffs of edits that violate this sanction or remedy, and an explanation how these edits violate it contain no diffs and look like they should be in your additional comments. You should probably move them there (it also makes everything much more organized) NorthernWinds ❄️ (talk) 14:08, 16 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Anthology Inc.

[edit ]
Latest comment: 2 months ago 4 comments2 people in discussion

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Anthology Inc. requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia, as it exhibits signs of having been generated by an AI model with no clear human review. Text produced by these applications is prohibited on Wikipedia. For further information, see section G15 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think these signs were incorrectly identified and you assert that you did carefully check the content, you may contest the nomination by visiting 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. Additionally – if you would like to create an article but find it difficult, please ask for help at the Teahouse.

@JTtheOG I'm not sure what happened here. Something went awry when I was cleaning up some obvious AI cruft on Blackboard (company) and Twinkle somehow created and attributed this to me. 😬 Should definitely be deleted, thanks for flagging. Smallangryplanet (talk) 22:07, 19 May 2026 (UTC) Reply
Yeah, I've been attributed some articles too when I've moved pages around and stuff. Sorry about that, JTtheOG (talk) 22:17, 19 May 2026 (UTC) Reply

Hello Smallangryplanet:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:38, 19 July 2026 (UTC) Reply

DCWC August update

[edit ]
Latest comment: 19 hours ago 1 comment1 person in discussion

The 2026 Developing Countries WikiContest has been running for a month now, so let's check in with the competition so far!

As of the time of writing, our top contestants are:

  1. Nigeria Vanderwaalforces (submissions) ahead of the pack with 715 points, with two FAs and many GAs on the monarchs of the Kingdom of Benin;
  2. Simongraham (submissions) with 291 points, mostly with GAs on jumping spiders, alongside various GAN and FAC reviews;
  3. Jaguarnik (submissions) with 240 points, mostly from an FA on the 1945 film Ivan the Terrible;
  4. Grnrchst (submissions) with 215 points, mostly from GAs on anarchist history in various countries, alongside many GA reviews, and;
  5. Vestrian24Bio (submissions) tied for 4th with 215 points, with an FL and four GAs on Indian cricket!

These competitors are in the lead, but if past experience is any indication, big shake-ups might still await us in the contest. If you're looking for a way to boost your position, we got a table of review requests from fellow participants—you can rack up a lot of points through reviews, and it might just convince others to review your own nominations! You can also look through the eligible reviews page to find other articles to review, with highlights for articles eligible for the ×ばつ multiplier. The coordinators would like to thank Jaguarnik (submissions) for his work to keep this page up to date.

Thank you so much for all your work in the contest so far, dear participants, and keep on the good fight against systemic bias on our wiki! Have any questions? Leave a message on the contest talk page or send it to one of our wonderful coordinators: Arconning (talk ·contribs ), Generalissima (talk ·contribs ), MagenticManifestations (talk ·contribs ), sawyer777 (talk ·contribs ), and TechnoSquirrel69 (talk ·contribs ).
