Page mover granted

Hello, CanonNi. Your account has been granted the "extendedmover" user right, either following a request for it or demonstrating familiarity with working with article names and moving pages. You are now able to rename pages without leaving behind a redirect, move subpages when moving the parent page(s), and move category pages.

Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Page mover for more information on this user right, especially the criteria for moving pages without leaving a redirect. Please remember to follow post-move cleanup procedures and make link corrections where necessary, including broken double-redirects when suppressredirect is used. This can be done using Special:WhatLinksHere. It is also very important that no one else be allowed to access your account, so you should consider taking a few moments to secure your password. As with all user rights, be aware that if abused, or used in controversial ways without consensus, your page mover status can be revoked.

DYK for Inauguration of Lai Ching-te

On 31 July 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Inauguration of Lai Ching-te, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that China launched a military exercise in response to the inauguration of Lai Ching-te as president of Taiwan (pictured)? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Inauguration of Lai Ching-te. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Inauguration of Lai Ching-te), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Draft:Hotdesk

Hello,

I'm the writer of the Hotdesk draft. This is my 1st ever article and I wanted to know if you could give me a bit more insight on how I can get it approved.

Thank you for your assistance!

Best regards, Gerard Gerardch12 (talk) 11:40, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

@Gerardch12 there are several issues, but firstly, what is your relationship with the company? If you are an employee, you are required by the terms of use to disclose it by placing the {{paid}} template on your user page. The main issues are:
  1. The draft is promotional in tone with many peacock words. Everything should be written neutrally.
  2. The draft lacks inline citations, which are needed so that information can be verified. See H:Referencing for beginners for more information.
  3. The sources aren't reliable. 2 of the 6 sources are the company's website (and are therefore not independent nor reliable), and the other 4 are about the founder, not the company (and are therefore not significant coverage).
For the draft to be accepted, it needs to meet the general notability guidelines and notability guidelines for companies. HTH, '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 11:47, 23 July 2024 (UTC)

Establishing Notability RE:Andy Hopper (Declined Draft)

Hi CanonNi,

I was reaching out for some guidance after you recently declined my draft for an article about Andy Hopper (Draft:Andy Hopper). I'm hoping you might be able to provide some guidance for better establishing notability. I have a number of other sources discussing Hopper and his election campaigns, but I want to make sure I'm providing sources that add to notability.

From the general notability guidelines, I feel with additional sources, I can establish all five components of notability, but I just want to make sure that it's not an issue of source quality versus number of sources. He has been covered by many professional media outlets in North Texas, including radio and television interviews. Also, I'm wondering what weight, if any campaign endorsements by other already established notable people might have? He has been endorsed by a number of people with national fame in the USA.

Thanks in advance for any feedback or advice you might be able to provide,

TC Texasconservative24 (talk) 03:01, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

@Texasconservative24 if you have multiple reliable independent sources that discuss him with significant coverage (such as the professional media outlets), feel free to add them. Regarding campaign endorsements: news coverage on said endorsements may contribute towards notability. Feel free to ask here or at the help desk if you have any further questions.

Question about article decline

Hi!

You recently declined my submission titled Draft:James Miller (professor), however, I find your response a little confusing. From what I gather, you declined my submission on account of subject Notability. After reviewing the relevant pages, I would like to offer a response. I believe that the subject in question here, can be easily connected to points 3, 5, and 8. Allow me to elaborate.

Point 3: The person has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor. The subject in question has been selected as a fellow of the United States Library of the Congress, which only selects a limited number of academics globally annually. This has been referenced by the Library's own website.

Point 5: The person has held a distinguished professor appointment at a major institution of higher education and research, a named chair appointment that indicates a comparable level of achievement, or an equivalent position in countries where named chairs are uncommon. The subject had been appointed Chair of the Faculty Assembly of the University, selection amounting to leading the whole faculty of a major academic institution, as credited by the Duke University website.

Point 8: The person has been head or chief editor of a major well-established academic journal in their subject area. The subject in question is editor-in-chief of a Brill journal titled Worldviews: Global Religions, Cultures, and Ecology, the first journal to focus on the relationships between religion, culture, and ecology worldwide, established in 1997. This has been sourced by the journal's page on Brill.


Because of all the reasons above, I believe that the subject in question for this article qualifies easily on the Notability criterion, as well as using proper sources. Thus, I would like to hear your thoughts on this, and advice on how to improve the article, in order to better satisfy Wikipedia's needs in demonstrating these points even more clearly.


Take care,

Mateja Bokan MatejaWateja (talk) 06:04, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

@MatejaWateja regarding the points you made above:
  1. Yes, that may potentially make him notable, but that information is not included anywhere in the draft.
  2. Again, yes, that may make him notable, but that information isn't in the article either
  3. A rule of thumb is that if the journal doesn't have an article, it's not well-established.
So, Miller potentially meets 2 of the 8 criteria for academics, but the information needs to be included in the article. HTH, '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 23:14, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Carodet (08:20, 4 July 2024)

Hi there! I need to change the title of an article as the name of the institution mentioned is incorrect. It currently reads 'City Law School' whilst its brand name is 'The City Law School'. Do I need to make a request via the forum to achieve this? Or is there a quicker way since this is the entity's legal name? --Carodet (talk) 08:20, 4 July 2024 (UTC)

@Carodet, The process of changing the title of an article is called a move. Usually this is done because the current title does not fit our guidelines on article titles. If the move is straightforward and nobody objects, make a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests, and a page mover will do it for you. However, IMO, this case is rather complicated, as generally 'The' isn't included in article titles. But... City Law School seems to have an emphasis on the 'The' in its title, so a technical move might be challenged. Therefore, what I would do is to start a discussion called a requested move on the talk page. Let me know if you have any other questions. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 08:27, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
Thank you. This is really helpful, however I do not understand how to use the request form. Apologies for wasting your time. Thanks for your reply. Carodet (talk) 15:19, 4 July 2024 (UTC)
No wories at all! The process can be a bit confusing for newcomers. I've started the discussion for you, so all you need to do now is reply to my comment on the talk page with your rationale for the move. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 02:52, 5 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from RKenDo on Newcastle Customs House (08:53, 25 July 2024)

hello, I am responding to the excessive intricate detail issue. I am a new editor, is it OK for me to delete a lot or do I need to stick to the punctuation copy edits for a time before I can make larger edits? thanks! --RKenDo (talk) 08:53, 25 July 2024 (UTC)

@RKenDo common ways to address the issue are to: a) split some of the content, if the excessive detail is valuable, or b) deleting trivial information. The solution you use is up to you. Now, if you're not comfortable with a large task like this, consider doing small tasks, such as punctuation copy edits you mentioned. Thanks for asking, and welcome!

@Pmishra3 I'm assuming you're referring to Draft:Pranysqa Mishra? No, it has not been accepted. If it has, you'd see a green box on the bottom of your talk page. If you're notable, someone else will write one for you, so my advice is to stop writing about yourself. '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talk • contribs) 23:17, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

@Junurita I understand that, I really do, but the problem is, and I'm gonna be blunt, your English is not good enough to edit here. There are many other ways to learn English, but editing Wikipedia isn't one of them, as your mistakes end up having to be fixed by others. My suggestion is that, if you really like editing Wikipedia, edit the one in your native language, Vietnamese; or if you insist on editing here, come back when your English is better.

Your removal of a tag

Talk:War of 1812#Infobox and belligerents, with Spain on the list Rather than removing something you disagree with, you should see whether there is any ongoing debate on the talk page for the article.

Question about tags and draftspace

Hello @CanonNi!

I see that you removed stub and BLP tags from my draft article. Is there a reference for how these tags should only be used in mainspace and not in draftspace? I have checked the page on drafts and on tagging and I don't see it specified there.

Since Wikipedia search doesn't return draftspace articles by default, I don't see the harm in including those tags in the draft article. Having a ready-to-publish version of the article in draftspace, with all necessary tags, makes more sense in my opinion.

Happy to learn more.

Unfortunately, the filters probably don't, and never will, have the ability to check for the existence of other articles. (They can parse the HTML of the page, both the old version and the new, to detect red links.) Animal lover |666| 06:25, 31 July 2024 (UTC)
