FPC
Technically, it is possible to enlarge an image, but it will always be apparent that it is "scaled up", since it becomes fuzzy in the small details. I don't recommend it, and FPCs are in fact opposed when scaling up is noticed. --Janke | Talk19:13, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I posted 'TWO QUERIES' in the Teahouse. Yes, I have tried to stop receiving bot messages by putting muninbot at the top of my talk page, however only in vain. So please tell me where I was wrong in the process. And for the second query, two images were posted after the image you are speaking of. Actually, I am speaking about the picture featuring Shami and Kumar. Thank you Michri michri (talk) 04:58, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
@Michri michri: I figured out why you keep receiving messages from that bot. It’s because you have
{{tlx|bots|deny{{=}}Muninnbot}} and you only need to have {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}}. For the picture I could not figure out which one you were talking about so I took a guess but thank you for you more specific info on which picture it is. I do not know whether that one is copy written let me ask someone. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb12:43, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

Userbox Request
Hello!
I was wondering if you could create a userbox with the Chicago Transit Authority logo on the left and text reading "This user rides the CTA". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stormykara (talk • contribs) 02:23, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
No problem! Any type of colors you want it to be? red and blue like the logo? (also don't forget to sign your messages at the end with 4 tildes ~~~~ like that). ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb02:36, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
Whoops, thought I did that, my bad! And I think just white background with black text, with perhaps a thin light blue (matching the logo blue, if possible) border around the userbox would be great ^^ Stormykara (talk) 04:31, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly; your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
Now, this is based on my interactions with you, your userpage and talkpage history, and is about this. Hi! I think it's neat that you're a Republican editor. I feel safe to tell you that I disagree with a lot of the views expressed in your personal userboxes, because I also feel confident that we're both here to improve Wikipedia and will stay focused on that, and I respect you. This barnstar isn't for not being politically provocative, that's just expected (and it'd be pretty condescending if it was). I award this barnstar because you have created an article on something of Republican interest, neutrally. If Wikipedia sways liberal like people say (and it probably does for a multitude of reasons), that could mean that right-wing topics aren't covered as much because editors just aren't interested. But Wikipedia should cover those things (like everything) to its best ability, so thank you for at least doing a bit for that effort. Kingsif (talk) 04:45, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
@ZX2006XZ: Maybe possibly today but will definitely be done by tomorrow. I’m just finding good refs right now and adding them in. Then I’ll probably go over the draft to see if it’s good. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb19:55, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
I also can not find anything for this sentence in release “The film would retain its January 28 date for the United States, Canada, Latin America, and Japan while being released on March 25, 2022, in Europe, Asia, and the Pacific, making it the first Disney+ original film to not have a "simulcast", in which it's released on the same day worldwide. so I think we should just not mention it until someone actually covers it. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb12:52, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
@ZX2006XZ: is What’s on Disney plus a primary source or a fan site? Because if it’s primary we can use it. And we can’t keep the tv series section if there is nothing covering it. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb12:56, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
@ZX2006XZ: I’ve learned during a GA review that if the sentence/section doesn’t have any reliable sources then it is not notable and should not be mentioned. So I see no reason in keeping the television section or the release date for other countries (unless disney+ said so for the release) ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb13:08, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
@ZX2006XZ: lol my talk page didn’t update before I put that last message. Okay I read the second article and saw this Today, Disney has actively started promoting the film on social media accounts with the new March release date for Europe. We need to find that social media Disney + is using and then find the post that says that. That is our source. Also I might add a footnote as well saying it says that on the app. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb13:38, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
@Kaleeb18: Apparently they did. There should be a tweet with the March 25 release date on the movie's teaser poster, which was posted onto Twitter on December 17, according to the second What's On Disney Plus article.... Wait, you said you found it???!?!!? ZX2006XZ (talk) 13:50, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Well, since we say in Europe, Asia, and the Pacific, I figure we would need a ref for the three of them. U know any Disney+ accounts in Asia and the pacific? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb14:06, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Well, now the release section is good. We have to get rid of the TV series section because there is no reliable sources for it and once we do that I think we can send it for a review. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb14:21, 21 January 2022 (UTC)
Oh okay, the thing is you cannot nominate the book of Boba Fett yet into GA while Billy Graham on other hand is very difficult to work. I think you working on fictional character will be much better, just seeing your experience and without edit warring. Goodluck. 2001:4455:364:A800:F101:3B60:82CE:9BD8 (talk) 01:31, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
Yes, Boba Fett will be a little bit, but I've also gotten my hands a little dirty into biographies of a living person before but it will still be harder than a fictional character. Thanks and happy editing! ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb01:46, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
Smile :)
Hello Kaleeb18, Pamzeis has smiled at you! Smiles promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day better. Spread the WikiLove by smiling at someone else, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend. Go on, smile! Cheers, and happy editing! Pamzeis (talk) 02:56, 27 January 2022 (UTC)P. S. If you're wondering when I'll finish the Woody (Toy Story) review, I'm afraid I won't be able to get to it until the 31st at the very least (or is it most...) Smile at others by adding {{subst:Smile}} to their talk page with a friendly message.
@Success think: The update so far looks pretty good to me. I did see one little thing though all the references are before the period instead of after, but that is just me being picky. Also in the section Ancestry and Transport instead of just copying and pasting from the dictionary of national biography try paraphrasing it and summarizing it just to make sure that there are no copyvios. Hope this helps! ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 19:32, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
Regarding placement of the references: before the period is the way I think I was thought to do it lough these many years ago, but I could be mistaken. Anyway, as you imply, it's a minor point and I think I'll leave them as is.
Regarding the copywrite issue: all indications are that the text copied is out of copywrite, and probably never was covered by copywrite. Assuming it was or is, the quotation (to my knowledge and belief) is properly cited and quoted, and is well within the bounds of Fair use as described by Wikipedia in that it's a minor quotation for non-profit purposes having no effect on the value of the work from which it is quoted (except as might be as a result of (implied) criticism, which is allowed). Another factor is that the quotation has been more-or-less used without being properly cited or quoted for years on the existing Wikipedia page (unless the note at the very bottom of the page concerning attribution can be thought adequate). Added to this is the probability as implied in the reference to Burgess in my edit that the information in the existing Wikipedia page is incorrect. Plus the fact that this information from Wikipedia has been widely used by those with any interest in Willett. Seems to me that it's appropriate to quote the entire, probably incorrect, passage while making the probably correct information easily available to anyone interested, and let the reader decide what's most believable (if they can). Hopefully that's what the new edition does. Please let me know your thoughts about this.
More long-winded than I'd hoped, but sometimes that's required. Thanks again for your feedback, and I hope to hear more from you.
I wasn't saying you had to do what I said I was just pointing out very small, small details that probably won't affect the article much. Hope to hear from you too. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb23:47, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
Im sorry to say but I cant have the hello kitty head image because of copyright problems, but I can still make a userbox like that. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb00:18, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello again ZX2006XZ, I think the draft has a lot of potential. Although I might be able to help you here and there, I will not be able to help much, as I have a load of stuff I am doing right now on Wiki. I’m trying to save Jabba the Hutt from being delisted as an FA, trying to work on The Book of Boba Fett to get it to a GA, working on this User:Kaleeb18/sandbox3, and on top of all of that I still get custom userbox request I do. I can still totally help or give pointers if you need any. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb19:42, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
You included Template:User WP/sub in templates not based on User WP, so your version of the code doesn't work. I will restore User WP, but adding the pictures you chose, until you don't find another solution that doesn't break the code. Moreover, could you please link me the talk on WP:DISNEY? I'd like to know the precise will of the WikiProject, in order to better fix the codes according to members' ideas. Thank you in advance, Est. 2021 (talk·contribs) 00:48, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
Hey Kaleeb! I just figured I'd tell you this but when replying to users on the Teahouse, it would be a good idea to ping the user in your response so that they are notified of your reply. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#654521:06, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
@Blaze Wolf: Yes I know I need to make it a good habit like I have with signing my talk page messages. I unfortunately forget to ping the user often. Thanks for the friendly reminder though. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb21:15, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
The article Woody (Toy Story) you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Woody (Toy Story) for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

In the Casa Manana article, the portion related to the union conflict was removed by a person claiming to be “Elaine Davidson.”
Elaine is in the union that Casa Manana is fighting! So she would not have removed the article.
Someone (unknown) made an account using her name. Do you have the email information on people who make accounts? I’m not sure who it could be. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theater Nurse (talk • contribs) 16:37, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
Hey! I just wanted to point out that when you are merging two sections together in places like the teahouse (like you did in this diff), make sure you're putting your move notice above the message you moved, not below. When you put it below, the reply tool gets confused on what is or isn't a message, and what to respond to. Also make sure that when you're doing this, you're indenting the same amount as well. For example, the correct way to merge like you did in that diff would be like this:
:::<small>moved from a new section this user created to here ― [[User:Kaleeb18|<bstyle="background:#000;color:#f07b3a;padding:1q;border-radius:5q;">Kaleeb18</b>]][[User talk:Kaleeb18|<sup>Talk</sup>]]<substyle="position:relative;right:20q;margin-right:-15px;">Caleb</sub> 13:28, 11 February 2022 (UTC)</small>
:::I added some controversial information (complete with published newspaper references) to an article about a local theater. The theater is in violation of union contracts, and it made national headlines. Someone deleted what I wrote and impersonated my friend, by using her name as the one who took the information down. While there are many people with the same name, there’s only one person by this name in the union in question. It was intentional slander and defamation of character.

You can add sections (like religious userboxes or political userboxes) between userboxes using an <sec/> tag, but since the point of the template is to replicate a Discord profile, adding personal information would fit better either in the About Me section or just in a separate infobox, like how Blaze has his. ― TunaNoSurprisesPlease20:37, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
Alright, I've been thinking on a solution so that you can use whatever you want, and I think this should work. I've made the template work with tables so that you can recreate what the infobox looks like. For example, if I were to replicate what your current infobox looks like, here's a little example of what it could look like:
But this edit you made here is inappropriate. You shouldn’t modify the comments of others nor move it. More-so you unilaterally carried out this action without leaving me a message please do not repeat such next time there or anywhere elsewhere. Although that avenue isn’t a TP see WP:REFACTOR. Celestina007 (talk) 15:08, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Sorry @Celestina007: I was unsure how to go about this, and I am not a patient person at all. I should have just dropped a message on your talk page instead of making a hasty edit. I was just trying to make sure things lined up correctly, but I was not trying to ruin your response at all. Thank your for correcting me though so I do not screw up like that again. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb15:18, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
I see you also fixed what I was trying to. You know what I was trying do though right? It just didn’t make any sense for you to say I also... when no one else said that except my response below yours, although I still shouldn’t have done that. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb15:23, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
No worries, I know you were merely trying to fix things up. On a more jovial note, as someone who suffers from acromegaly(gigantism) I'm somewhat obsessed with the science of height, i note you say in your UP that you are 5'11" (180cm) i believe in no time you'd hit 6'0" and join the so called "6 feet gang" whatever that means. jeez boys are so conscious about how tall they are. I'm 6'6" and believe me it is no fun, especially when you are a "woman" (You literally cant be/or identify as agender in Nigeria) the only "good side" to this condition, is that it makes dunking a lot easier, asides that its no fun, now I am messed up because I quit Basketball last year after an injury that almost left me paralyzed. Celestina007 (talk) 17:43, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Wow, glad you didn’t become paralyzed. I am exactly 5'11" and 3/4 of an inch so I’m need to grow 1/4 of an inch to be 6ft. I don’t know why us boys care about being tall lol, I guess we think that makes us cooler, but it doesn’t really. My dad is 6'7" so I will probably grow more, but I agree that height can make basketball a lot easier, especially dunking (which I am super close to doing on a 10ft. goal). But like you said there is a downside of height as my dad hit his head on a lot of things. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb18:18, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
If your dad is 6'7” you’d definitely surpass 6'0” (183cm). lol Yes! That’s very true and I can relate, I can’t count how many times I’ve slammed my head on random objects or when trying to undress, severely injure my hand when I stretch them (vertically) due to the proximity between the ceiling fan and my long arms. I probably deserved the knee injury, my doctors had told me severally to quit playing Basketball due to the fact my bones are very fragile, I didn’t listen because Basketball, Writing short stories, editing Wikipedia and my day job was literally all I had. I played in the male squad so what happened exactly was that day I was showing off by performing vanity stunts like “kissing the rim” "leaping and using my head to hit a 10'4” goal height, repeatedly" a blatant showoff I learnt from watching Guy Dupuy from Dunkademics(only a couple of us could do this ) This was just sheer unnecessary vanity display to show not only could I dunk easily but I was tall enough to leap and use my head to hit a 10'4 rim, "do a reverse dunk", a "hide and seek" and all this time completely forgetting that this condition was both a blessing and a curse and that my bones were very fragile due to my condition and previous knee injuries, what led to my knee rupturing was when the goal height was adjusted to 12'4" meaning i had to leap 5'8” inches In order hit the rim with my head. I did successfully (even) jump higher than the rim, but upon landing I completely injured myself, the pain was so much I thought probably I might never walk again but oh well I’m fine now. Oh one more thing you can check your peak or potential height by adding your dad's height and your mum's height by using this height calculator it serves as a guide so you’d know what your potential height is and if you aren’t getting there yet you might want to do heavy cardio, the yoga cobra pose (in order to aid your spine in stretching) (this isn’t backed by science though), add more protein to your diet, drink lots of milk, sleep latest by 7pm, vertical growth occurs when you are sleeping, and you need lots of sleep and all the aforementioned to reach true potential height, a lot of theories exist about a specific age when one can’t grow taller anymore, Some say (18) others say (25) at this point their growth plates have supposedly closed and cannot grow anymore but I’ve seen a 29 year old move from 5'9 to 6'4” in one year, this was a major cause for concern as people feared he shared the same fate with me, apparently he was okay but was just a very late bloomer, Thank me later when you hit 6'0” 😊. I’m just glad I can converse with someone who knows Basketball. Thank you for your time. Celestina007 (talk) 19:40, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Cool tip. The calculator said I’m going to be around 6'5", which I think is a solid height for basketball and swimming for me, but I don’t think I want to get to taller than that really, because then you almost get to tall and the stuff like you have mentioned happens. Sad that you had to quit basketball though. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb19:51, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Sad indeed but It was the best thing to do & yes, You are apt, you do not want to grow so tall that agility Becomes a problem, in my opinion 5'9” to 6'9” is the optimal height for a potential good Basketball player, examples are King James(6'8”) Chris Paul(6'0”) KD(6'9”) Stephen Curry (6'3”) MJ(6'6”) [but if you have seen him up-close, In my opinion he is probably (6'4”)], The list is unending but yes anything taller than 6'9” might not be a good fit due to lack of agility. The tallest player in the world is the Nigerian Basketballer named Abiodun Adegoke standing at 7'9” alongside Sunmingming (7'9”) Tacko fall (7'7”) but if you watch them play you can tell that they are a tad bit stiff and their agility isn't too good. Its very rarely that I look up to people Infact I don’t think I’ve ever looked up to anybody but for the first time in a long while, i had a chance to see the 7’9” Nigerian Basketballer, he stood 1 feet and 3 inches taller than me. Oh Boy! Kaleeb, It’s been nice discussing with you about BB, please feel free to banter with me anytime on my TP. I’d see you at the Teahouse. Cheers mate! Celestina007 (talk) 20:34, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
@Celestina007: That's cool and I agree the really tall people like Tacko Fall are a bit stiff and can look like they are almost in slow motion when they play. I'm glad my little incident somehow got us into this discussion. It was nice to talk to you and see you around at the Teahouse. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb21:31, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Thank you! That helped a bit, but I just wish I could figure out a way to shorten it without it taking up so much of the page. SlySabre (talk) 18:36, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Is that your Discord username? I should send you a friend request, I think we’d probably get along, well, politically speaking anyways, not so much about sports, I personally don’t get into them, well I like fishing and target practice, but that’s about it, which, well to some, those might be considered sports, but I never really considered them such. I’m also kind of a Disney nerd so I think we could have some good discussions. SlySabre (talk) 14:15, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
Sweet, yeah I’ll probably send you a friend request. Although I might have homework so I won’t be on until a little later, somewhere around 7 to 8-ish EST time, maybe sooner if I get lucky. SlySabre (talk) 15:03, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
This user proudly celebrates Tartan Day Please use File:ConneryKilt.jpg With a ForestGreen background. And can you move the word Tartan to the second sentence, it would look nicer.
Blaze Wolf Yes, this sentence that had gained popularity in the preceding weeks is incorrect now as in the preceding weeks was back in November. They changed it to starting off as, which I think is good. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb14:48, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
I do agree that term is a bit vague. I had assumed that sentence meant "in the weeks leading up to the release of the song". However if you don't think so then that is fine. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#654514:50, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
Probably. I'm not really that interested in that song (mainly because the term is a bit offensive to me, however I'm not going into why since it's a bit personal) ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#654514:54, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
I mainly just try and avoid politics altogether since that's just a giant mess that doesn't end up well when you get involved in it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#654515:01, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
Blaze Wolf That’s very true it’s cause everyone has there own opinion and doesn’t really listen to what the other side has to say so it ends up as a mess. That’s why I also try to avoid things I know I would be no help to. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb15:05, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
I'm glad that list could be a help! I remember how challenging putting together that original list was, so I know you put a lot of work into this one as well. :) Also, I hope this wasn't presumptuous, but I made a couple of minor grammatical changes to the lede. If you disagree with any, feel free to change them back. Thanks again! — HunterKahn16:41, 23 February 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, I might try to get Cobb Vanth to a GA, but that article looks like a mess rn so im just going to leave it alone for now. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb03:06, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
Features for new users coming soon (and mentors, like you, wanted!)
Hello.
As you're currently listed as a host at the Teahouse, I wanted to make sure you're aware of the imminent rollout of new Growth Team Features which every new account will be getting by default. Each users will soon see a new 'Homepage' tab next to their User page. It contains two main elements which might impact on your involvement - and you'd be welcome to get involved and help out directly with one of them.
Firstly, they will be offered a range of 'suggested edits', and encouraged to make simple improvements to pages that interest them. (Being aware of this feature would be helpful for all Teahouse hosts if you're likely to offer advice on tasks for them to start out doing.)
There's also a 'Your impact' box to show them how many people have seen the pages they've just edited.
Finally, each new user is randomly assigned a 'mentor' from a list of friendly, experienced editors, like yourself. If they get stuck, they can ask a question directly to them via a Your mentor box, and hopefully get a swift, friendly answer from that mentor. Currently, this feature is given to 2% of new users, but it's set to increase to around 10% in the very near future.
To spread the load on our current list of around 65 mentors, I'm reaching out to ask if you'd like to help out and sign up as one? The workload is relatively small; User Panini! reports receiving four questions a month, on average, all of which were simple ones of the type we already get at the Teahouse, whilst I've had just one in the last 3 weeks. To view a list of every question asked of all mentors over the last 14 days, click here.
If becoming a mentor and being available to help new users on their first few days here interests you - just as have done at the Teahouse in the past - then please consider signing up at Growth Team features/Mentor list. But please only do so if you are genuinely willing to be available to help. Existing users can already 'opt-in' to seeing the Newcomer Homepage features via their Preferences.
@Nick Moyes: Awesome I’ll definitely help out. I thought the homepage, just like the reply tool, was a thing everyone had, but I guess not lol, although I have never heard of the mentor thing. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb15:54, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
Great. Don't rush into it if you're not sure as I gather it's not so easy to reassign people to a new mentor if one pulls out. But it's effectively like being available to quickly answer people's first few queries at the Teahouse, though on a 1-to-1 basis.
If you've got the Homepage module enabled, do you not see a 'Your mentor' box at all? Yours is a quite new account, so you might be amongst the high percentage of new users who did get the homepage activated (25%), but didn't get assigned into the mentorship allocation so as not to overburden this new set of 'mentors' (2% of that 25% of new accounts got one assigned).
Yeah I don’t see any mentor box, but I do see a suggested edit, your imapact, and how to edit box. Thanks for the info. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb16:22, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
Regarding the Marketing section on The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild
I’m not really sure why that site wouldn’t be a reliable source considering how it came directly from Disney themselves, however outside of Disney, some fan-news sites have reported on it too such as LaughingPlace.com, wdwnt.com (Walt Disney World News Today), wdwmagic.com (Walt Disney World Magic) among several others. SlySabre (talk) 04:05, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
@SlySabre: I just did. Its not lookin bad, but I'm seeing some questionable sources like cinelinx, tumblr, and maybe one of the Twitter ones. Other than the sources I think its fine, but i do not think the draft will be accepted as it doesn not have sources that are independent from stuff like film news just like The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild did not get accepted until release. See WP:NFILM. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb20:07, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
I told ZX2006ZX about the Tumblr source not being reliable, but they kept insisting on keeping it. The ones from Twitter I think are fine because triplikid’s tweets are confirmations and answers to speculation and rumors people had, as he had first hand knowledge working at the studio. Cinelinx on the other hand, I can remove and just easily replace with a more popular site like Screen Rant. SlySabre (talk) 20:11, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello @Virtual319:, Unfortunately I must say it is very highly suggested that you do not make an article about your own company as that would be considered a conflict of interest (COI). COI editing can often stray the article from having a neutral point of view and can sometimes be written like an advertisement (WP:PROMO). I highly suggest you follow the instructions at WP:COIEDIT. If you do decide to write the article, even though it is highly suggested that you dont as it could get you blocked if you do not follow the intruction of WP:COIEDIT correctly, then I would suggest reading your first article. To be able to write an article about a company you must ensure it passes the notability guideline at WP:COMPANY first, and if it does make sure that the information you put on an article is backed with independent (non-primary), reliable sources. I hope this helps if you have any more questions be sure to ask. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb21:23, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
DYK for Woody (Toy Story)
On 28 February 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Woody (Toy Story), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Woody from Toy Story was originally written as a ventriloquist's dummy and the main villain of the film? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Woody (Toy Story) 2. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Woody (Toy Story)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.
Where do we submit one to be reviewed? I have one that I’ve been considering submitting for consideration. Thanks for reading this. SlySabre (talk) 13:18, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
It looks like it is possible for it to be a GA there are just some references (if you scroll through the references section) where it says something like dead link or page needed that need to be fixed. I also saw one citation needed template. I will also tell you to see WP:GACR. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb13:38, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
Should I go ahead and remove the ones that I can’t find sources to that say reference needed? (Like remove their sentences)
Citation needed template at the end of the first paragraph in planning and devices, one near the end of reactions, and one in the third and last paragraph in aftermath. I would say if you truly can’t find a reliable source for that info I would remove it as it is not notable. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb14:14, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
I removed the sentences with the “citation needed” template. There’s also a YouTube link as a reference that I need to replace or get rid of, but anyways, should I go ahead and send it in for nomination? SlySabre (talk) 17:42, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
If you think it passes the criteria then yes and in fact, I will go ahead and review it as I have done one before with the help of another user. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb18:08, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
Thank you @Kaleeb18:! I like the way it looks, you did a good job. (Oh and for the question that @Tunakanski: asked, It's because I like that you can use Celluar data almost everywhere. Sure while most WiFi networks are usually faster than cellular data, you are only connected to the internet within the 150 feet range most routers usually have. While cellular data usually isn't as fast as most routers, you are connected to the internet as long as you have a good signal, and most places have a decent signal overall. That's why I prefer Celluar Data.) Toad6214:32, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
Noticed Your Woody (Toy Story) Contributions (3/2/22)
Hello, I hope you are doing well. I noticed your major contributions to the Woody article on Wikipedia and helped to get it to Good Article status. I was wondering if you'd be able to do the same for this article: Jessie (Toy Story)? I began to fix up the article a while back, but frankly, other things got in the way. There are a lot of reliable sources you can use for reference both on its main page and talk page. Would you be willing to rewrite the article and help restore it? It doesn't have to be nominated for GA status, just good enough that other people can read it. It would be a huge help. Thanks, hope you consider it! --Lord of Fantasy (talk) 06:10, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
The ones that are dead links from WebCitation are the ones that I will try to remove and replace with links from the Internet Archive instead. If I can’t find functioning back-ups on the Internet Archive, then I’ll just remove them. I’m at school right now so I’d have to wait until I get home however bare with me but I hope you don’t mind me asking if you can give me some time to continue fixing things before closing the review. SlySabre (talk) 18:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Oh dont worry im not going to close it. I was going to close it because i thought every reference was going be messed up but it was only a few. Also, I can place GA reviews on hold too, to give you time to fix it, but that is if the changes will take like a week. Im going to wait for you tho to fix the problems at hand first then check the whole article. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb21:05, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello!
I want to add new word to this (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ethnic_slurs) article, but I have no idea how to do it. I made a "draft", but I don't know how to add this word to the list. Here is what I want to add:
|-
|Sibul
|Estonia
|Russians
|Meaning "onion" in Estonian. The origin of this term is uncertain; some theories suggest it due to Old Believers community, whose primary participates are ethnic Russians who are growing onions on the shores of lake Peipsi. However, most likely it's due to the onion domes that are typical feature of Russian architecture.
How should I form my editing suggestion? Thank you very much for your help.
@Saveli Balujev: Welcome to Wikipedia, the reason you cannot edit it is because the page is protected letting only people that have autoconfirmed rights (aka editors that have been on Wikipedia for 3 days with at least ten edits) edit the article. The reason it might be protected is because that page might get vandalized a lot. However, you can still make an edit request on the article's talk page. I suggest that you follow the instructions at WP:ER in the sections Planning a request and Making requests. Make sure though when you make a request you back up your information with independent, reliable sources. I hope this helps, if you have any more questions feel free to ask. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb21:22, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Replying to the right message
I've noticed that when you're replying to people on talk pages or project pages such as the teahouse, you're often responding to the wrong message. It appears as though you're using the reply tool, so fixing this shouldn't be very difficult.
Next to all messages, you can see the [ reply ] button, which you press to reply to that message in specific. Based on how much you're indenting your messages (for example here), it seems like you're just hitting the reply button that is the furthest down. In the example I provided, if you were trying to reply to the IP's message, you should hit the reply message next to the IP's message, not the one next to blaze's message. How much something is indented lets other people know what you're responding to, and doing what you're doing could cause confusion. Thanks, ― Levi_OPTalk15:52, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
@Levi OP: Ok thanks. I guess I just confused as when to indent or not, because if you look at other replies like the one 3 up from the example you gave every response is indented. Should those responses not have been indented? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb16:04, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
In situations like this, editors might indent their response after yours because they're adding on to what you are saying. There are a lot of situations, though, where people have the same misunderstanding as you and will make the same mistake. Unless you're responding to a specific message, or adding on to something someone else said, you should always only indent one more level then the message you're responding to. ― Levi_OPTalk17:04, 4 March 2022 (UTC)
The new Lego Star Wars is coming out next month, which I’m pretty excited for. Plus it’s one of the only times we’ve gotten a product branded as both a Disney and Warner Bros. release! SlySabre (talk) 18:47, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
YES! I am actually looking forward to this. It was supposed to come out like a year and a half ago, but at least its finally coming out. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb18:57, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Have you pre-ordered it yet? I have a friend that has, but I don’t have any supported consoles/devices other than PC, but in the meantime I will look forward to seeing gameplay of it on YouTube. SlySabre (talk) 19:00, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Speaking of Star Wars, I miss the events that Disney would sponsor on Roblox. Those were really fun and they gave me something to do and look forward to, and I’ve had several people asking me if I can give them the Darth Vader helmet which is unobtainable now (plot twist; I can’t. It’s a limited in the way that it’s a limited time item, although it’s not limited as in a limited collectible, so I can’t sell or trade it). I also wonder if we’ll get a third Angry Birds game, that would be kinda neat. SlySabre (talk) 19:04, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
I know some of my friends play Fortnite though, which seems to be the game that they’ve taken their sponsorships and have moved elsewhere. The last time Disney sponsored Roblox with Star Wars and with anything from their company in general was in 2019 so it’s been several years now. SlySabre (talk) 19:06, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Someone undid my edit of removing the YouTube reference per your recommendation and has argued that it shouldn’t be removed because what they say is that the clip is from a reliable news source. I’m not sure how I should handle this so I figured maybe I should ask you. SlySabre (talk) 14:00, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
Yes the video is from Fox News, but the account that published the video is not from Fox News therefore making it unreliable. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb14:23, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
@Kaleeb18:, I have updated the tasks for the lead that needed to be fixed. Let me know if you saw something that you don’t agree with, thanks. SlySabre (talk) 19:14, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
Can I add you to a list of WikiFriends on my profile? That is if you consider me one of course, if not I totally understand. Thanks for reading this. SlySabre (talk) 15:53, 9 March 2022 (UTC)
Ah okay then, thanks for getting back with me pretty quickly. If it’s a one time event, then should I probably ask for the draft to be deleted? SlySabre (talk) 14:02, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello Colin.fn, well technically yes, but your userpage on wiki is not picked by the search engines and is something an average wiki reader, who is not an editor, will probably never see. More importantly I want to let you know Wikipedia is not a social network. Userpages that act as a blog to promote oneself are often speedily deleted. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb01:41, 13 March 2022 (UTC)
It looks a lot better, well done just don’t forget the comma before and here hip/trendy areas and high traffic/high visibility.

Hi Kaleeb18 . I noticed that you recently used therichest.com as a source in Jabba the Hutt. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that it does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for such information. I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree, let's discuss it. You may want to check WP:RSP and WP:RSN to help determine if a source is reliable. Thanks.--Hipal (talk) 18:47, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
Hey I think what you did is fine. I almost always look at WP:RSN when trying to determine if a source is reliable or not. I guess I just misinterpreted how they viewed it as a source. I also thought it might be fine to use because I think they are owned by the same company that owns screen rant and CBR, Valet Inc. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb21:23, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
On 20 March 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Space 220 Restaurant, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

Kinda funny but also at the same time, not really, because now I gotta find another source to replace that one.
In case you’re curious, this is the draft I’ve been working on. Remember how I said that I know some pretty obscure Disney media? Well, here is another strange oddity that a lot of people seem to forget. SlySabre (talk) 04:13, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
Well, poop. I thought my research on this series was over but I was wrong. Apparently there’s three Talking Tom songs released by Walt Disney Records, and I’ve only found two so far. This has been a really weird thing to research. I mean, I’ve also found one Disney-branded Angry Birds toy so I’m sure stranger things have happened. SlySabre (talk) 05:28, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
If you think just reading about it sounds odd, just wait until you’ve seen actual the episodes. You can find them by going on Disney’s YouTube channel and by going from oldest to newest. It was the very first thing uploaded onto the account, which is strange considering how the property isn’t even from Disney, but rather, it’s a case of Disney licensing a non-Disney property and adapting it. It’ve known about the series for a little while now but it’s weird also finding out that Disney was also involved with the music. If I’m not mistaken, it may even well be Disney’s first animated web-series, although I’m pretty sure it was the first to have been based on a licensed property. SlySabre (talk) 14:48, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
The article The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK.

Hello, Kaleeb18,
As the notice states, Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself. If the category is no longer empty, another editor will remove the tag, there are editors checking the Empty Category category throughout the day. But it's important to not remove speedy deletion tags from pages that you have created. Empty categories sit for 7 days before they are considered for deletion so, in this case, "speedy" does not mean quickly. Thank you. LizRead!Talk!17:34, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
@ShahidAnwar18 your edits at Shiv Nadar University haven’t been technically deleted just reverted. But any who the reason your edits were reverted is because the information you were putting on there was trivial information. If you go to the articles' edit history one user said "Please don't add registrars, VC and chancellor are enough heads". ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb11:47, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
If your not busy, do you think you could expand the Mike Wazowski draft? It’s been a long time ago since I saw Monsters.

Since it’s been so long for me, I won’t remember everything, so it would be better to have someone who remembers the sequence of events that can put all the events revolving around the character together, like what is seen at Bob Parr.

Hello,there this backtoback03 l wanted to ask if it is okay to write an article about my late father who was a chief in my home village 😁😁 --Backtoback03 (talk) 07:44, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
@Backtoback03: Technically the answer is no. It is highly considered that you do not write an article about someone you know or a company you work for as that would be a Conflict of interest (COI). Often times COI editing will stray the article from having a neutral point of view. That being said you can technically still make one, but he has to be notable. Meaning he has to have indpendent, reliable sources mentioning him. So for example The New York Times would be considered reliable, but not a random blog. Also you would have to write the article in a neutral point of view. That being said it is still considered you don’t make it and instead ask someone else to if you can find reliable source to prove he is notable. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb12:30, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
Regarding your draft for ISWM
Heya! So I think your draft for In Space with Markiplier is very good, but what I think it's looking for is less sources from Markiplier himself and more outside sources. Try expanding the reception section with coverage from news outlets. Looking good!
Sorry for bothering you as your busy with your sandbox, however I was wondering if you could help me on List of fictional asexual characters?

Regarding your comments on Draft:Mychonny, he had a starring role in a major film production and his sketch series was released on a major television network. Therefore, I do think he passes notability for a person. lullabying (talk) 01:38, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
Regarding the pages that were "deleted" on multiple occasions, I looked at the delete history and his article was deleted several times prior to 2010. This was prior to him having any notable works, as the sources I provided are from 2014 onward. lullabying (talk) 01:42, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
hmm It doesn't look like the films or television network are major. Let me ask for another opinion. Note I was close to passing this one. Sorry to bring you into this @Primefac:, but I'm stuck over this article. So if you don't mind to give an opinion please do. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb01:52, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
I think that was a reasonable decline, for a few reasons. First, most of the references are interviews, or essentially so (full of quotes from Luc). Second, the references are mostly about Sucker, with Luc receiving generic coverage. Third, there is nothing about Mychonny specifically, all (per the previous point) as John Luc in his role in Sucker. Basically, as a YouTuber there is no coverage of him, and as an actor there is only the one film. Primefac (talk) 12:15, 15 May 2022 (UTC)
I'm seeing here that you deny the existence of the article Kaique Alves, who is a swimmer with a medal in a Swimming World Championship. Obviously the swimmer's notoriety criterion is more than met with this, as he isn't a low-level athlete. The fact that it has many data sources is no demerit. There is a source from Globoesporte, which is the largest sports news site in Brazil, showing his bronze medal at the World Championship. I see no reason to deny the existence of the article. Soon this swimmer will get more medals in relevant competitions and the article will have to be redone unnecessarily. See that the athlete is 19 years old, his career is at the beginning and he already has a medal in WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS, it's not Pan American or South American competition, it's WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS. 187.8.181.206 (talk) 18:23, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
Hello there, there is no need to get angry, but I am not denying his existence. In order for an athlete to have an article, they must pass the notability guideline of an athlete, which he might. The article should have at minimum three independent, reliable sources covering him, but you will usually want more. Globoesports may or may not be a reliable, I have no clue since its in Portuguese. If its true that he is going to start winning a bunch of stuff, this may be a case of WP:TOOSOON. I'm sure once he wins more he will have more sources covering him. If you have further questions you can just ask right here. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb12:15, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

Jan Broekhuis
Dear Kaleeb18, Thank you for your review of Draft:Jan Broekhuis. Compared to the version that I initially found (mainly written by User:20th c violin concerto) I added a photograph of Broekhuis performing with famous French singer Charles Trenet, I added some biographical information and the names of the institutes where his music is archived. I also added several sources, a.o. five newspaper articles and a ref to a Master's thesis at Utrecht University. Broekhuis teached, performed and wrote music (amusement & classical scores) in the UK, France, Switzerland and the US, and worked with Josephine Baker. The Dutch Wiki lemma and the German Wikipedia don't mention any other sources. What is the best way to take this up? I explored all sources I could find. (I could add a dozen other references to newspapers, but that would merely be ref-dropping, and not add any essential information.) Vysotsky (talk) 20:03, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
I'm sorry I didn't realize they were newspapers. Is it possible you could tell me the name of the company that published it (in English if possible) so I can see if its reliable or not ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb01:14, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
I feel as though the article is close to being accepted, but I think something is off and I think it is the tone maybe. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb12:40, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
That's not how a review process works, I think. I have written (journal) articles myself that have been reviewed, and I have been a peer reviewer myself. Normally one doesn't have to jump through unexpected new hoops. The last review of the draft was explicit: "This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified." I added nine (9) reliable sources, so I think the draft should be judged on the basis of that aspect. Vysotsky (talk) 15:21, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
My first review of the draft was definitely wrong in that he is not notable. I did not look into great detail at the sources and I screwed up there. I always try to find something wrong with an article before I accept it so I don't put a bad article into mainspace, but in this case maybe I have convinced myself there is something wrong with the article even though there isn't. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb15:27, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
Rejection of Article for Creation: Dr. Ujjwal Patni
Hello!
Hope you are doing well!
I see that my recent draft was rejected because it did not have strong references. I added the strongest and most prominent news websites of India (where I am situated) to support the article. Will you be able to guide me a little regarding what can I do to make the article better?
Moreover, it says the article reads like an advertisement, will you be able to help a little with the same?
I am new to Wikipedia and I am not skilled with the technicalities of the encyclopedia.
Some of the refs are definitely good, however things like Amazon, Diamondbook, and I don't know about the pdf files because it won't even let me open it. The parts where it sounds like an add is where its trying to promote him. For example in the lead it says He has led three Guinness World Records although there is no reliable source to prove that. Also, this section in the lead especially sounds like an add He runs a YouTube Channel in his own name, Dr Ujjwal Patni. The channel regularly publishes videos on Business, Digital Currencies, Parenting and Life Lessons. The channel's viewership exceeds 6 million and Patni has won the prestigious YouTube's Gold Creator Award for the same. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb18:12, 26 May 2022 (UTC)

I don't if there is any missing information since I know almost nothing about the guy, but it seems it has already been published ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb18:18, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
The article Garsa Fwip 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 needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Garsa Fwip for issues which need to be addressed.

Declined Draft for 2021 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championship??
Hello,
The reason you listed for declining the draft submission for 2021 NCAA Division I Men's Golf Championship doesn't make any sense. Not only does it include the same type of references as all of the other individual championship entries for each year, they are literally the only primary sources that exist excluding the record book which was updated just the past week AND pulls it's info from the Golfstat pages that were linked since they are the **official location where scores are posted for NCAA golf events. I'm not sure what else I or anyone can possibly do to "better" source this article other than making an arbitrary link to the NCAA record book (which I would be happy to do).
The NCAA decided in the early 2000s that all regular and post-season NCAA golf scores must be posted to Golfstat in order to be considered official. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Collegegolfbook (talk • contribs) 22:54, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
Just because another page has something doesn't mean it is okay. Primary sources do not show that the subject is notable, but reliable, independent of the subject sources such as The New York Times do. It doesn't seem that one of the sources you have are either reliable or independent therefore it doesn't pass WP:GNG ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb23:07, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
How does Golfweek, an independent publication that covers most significant pro and amateur golf events including the NCAA national championship(s) not qualify as both reliable and independent of the subject? Collegegolfbook (talk) 23:14, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
So am I to understand that your hangup with the article isn't revolving around the validity of the sources but rather the "notability" of the national championship entry? If so, I'm even more confused seeing as there is a main article for the national championship itself as well as independent articles for each year of that championship from 1939-2019 (80 independent articles coving 80 years). I understand you are likely not familiar with this topic or even possibly with United States Collegiate sports, but this being the National Championship with clearly established "notability" should easily qualify my submission of the most recent playing of that championship event. While I respect your intent to keep Wikipedia devoid of needless/biased/etc articles, this is clearly not one of them. Collegegolfbook (talk) 00:08, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
@Kaleeb, I am travelling for the next few days, so if you have questions or thoughts about a draft, please post at WT:AFC for other opinions; sorry I cannot be of more help at this point in time. Primefac (talk) 02:17, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
Hey! Just dropping you a quick note about this article you declined at AfC yesterday: in general, most reviewers will accept species articles with at least one valid scientific citation, because the nature of the scientific process means that they're practically guaranteed to have a couple more good academic sources. (See WP:NSPECIES). This isn't a rebuke or anything, your decline was perfectly reasonable by GNG and the version of the article I accepted was significantly improved, but just wanted to let you know about the rule of thumb. Thank you for your work at AfC! Rusalkii (talk) 04:35, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
First off, thank you for taking a look at my AfC entry for Égoïste the other day and approving it. I was wondering if you may also examine my Draft for NYCxDesign if you get a chance? I tried the improve upon the issues that were raised and resubmitted a while ago but it's been stalled. SleepyWhippet (talk) 06:15, 31 May 2022 (UTC)
Hi Kaleeb. I've seen you working on several fictional character articles, and they're interesting. Do you think you could review a fictional character from video game also, Ethan Winters? All the sources I've used were reliable, and the article is already prepared. Thank you. BloatedBun (talk) 04:23, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
@BloatedBun: Ill review the other one too. Reading that article intrigued me into the game and I saw it was on Xbox Game Pass and I thought I would try it. Then I watched the first 5 secs of the trailer and said well... maybe not lol. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb02:20, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
Ha, I guess you're not really into Horror games. Resident Evil was the one who revived the horror genre since 90's. Its not that scary unlike the RE2 remake. Thanks for willing to review. if you want to review another one since I think youre a participant to the GA backlog, you can review this last article I nominated recently if you want again . Its a little bit huge thou. BloatedBun (talk) 12:10, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
Changes addressed; thanks for the review! Let me know if anything more is needed!
And by know how to play, if you mean you can play baseball, that gives you an advantage over me - I love watching it but have no athletic ability whatsoever - which always makes me impressed with people that can play a sport! Sanfranciscogiants17 (talk) 23:25, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
Cool, I will look over them. Also yeah I am definitely not the greatest at baseball (not even close lol) as it is not one of the main sports I play, but I will just play it with others for fun sometimes, cause we arn't throwing anything at high speeds. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb01:41, 5 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I think there is a mistake and no one helps me, only declines the draft. So in hopes you will, I would like to know how and why my draft was declined when its about an Israeli journalist who published a book. Also, this book received a grant from The Israel Film Fund nd a grant from Beit Lessin Theater and the Tel Aviv-Yafo Municipality, the book also is adapted into a screenplay adapted for the stage. He might not be known worldwide but he is sure not someone who doesnt deserve a wiki page.
As you can see I placed many sources who shows his articels and sources on him.
Could you please help? Polysaccharides (talk) 06:51, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
I suggest you read the reason why it was declined on the draft. Read it and look and the links it provides. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb23:06, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
The article Garsa Fwip you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Garsa Fwip for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Pamzeis -- Pamzeis (talk) 08:01, 20 June 2022 (UTC)
List of The Book of Boba Fett characters FLC
Hi, Kaleeb. Unfortunately, the FLC really didn't have enough reviews to say that there was a consensus to promote the list. The fact that it had a source review is great, but there was only one supporter and we normally would expect to see at least three before considering promotion. The list had been at FLC since February. It seemed that reviewing activity had halted, and we can't keep lists at FLC indefinitely. The FLC was at the stage where reaching a consensus in the near-future was unlikely, so I decided to close it. I hope you continue to pursue FL status for the list, though. Cheers.

The third round of the 2022 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 180 points, which is a lower figure than last year when 294 points were needed to progress to round 4. Our top scorers in round 3 were:
BennyOnTheLoose, with 746 points, a tally built both on snooker and other sports topics, and on more general subjects.
Bloom6132, with 683 points, garnered mostly from "In the news" items and related DYKs.
Sammi Brie, with 527, from a variety of submissions related to radio and television stations.
Between them contestants achieved 5 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 51 good articles, 149 DYK entries, 68 ITN entries, and 109 good article reviews. As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process.
I have just had my music related publication declined as being unreliable and lacking verification but I want a record of the info I submitted..is this possible and how is it done? Thank You. Gammes (UK) --Gammes (UK) (talk) 18:10, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
Gammes (UK) Hello there and Welcome to Wikipedia, I am having trouble knowing exactly what you mean. Did you make an article about music you published, because I cannot find it in your edit contributions? If so, it is highly suggested that you do not make an article about yourself or something you are related to. That is considered a conflict of interest. Answering the question about reliability and verifiabilty of articles, In order for someone or something to have an article, it must have reliable, independent sources covering it to verify the information on the article. If no reliable sources can be found, the article is not notable ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb02:29, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
