DYK Update?Hi @TheNuggeteer: I assume you'll be reviewing my DYK DYK:Dilaw (song) nomination. I just want to check if it's been approved or not. Thanks! Royiswariii (talk) 11:52, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

Please review the comment(s) at your nomination's entry before nominating further. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Leafy46 (talk) 15:23, 16 September 2024 (UTC) DYK for Teodoro AsedilloOn 17 September 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Teodoro Asedillo, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that a former teacher in the Philippines became a Robin Hood–like outlaw? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Teodoro Asedillo. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Teodoro Asedillo), 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. —Kusma (talk) 00:26, 17 September 2024 (UTC) Your GA nomination of Philippines at the 1928 Summer OlympicsHi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Philippines at the 1928 Summer Olympics you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Arconning -- Arconning (talk) 13:21, 17 September 2024 (UTC) Hey there TheNuggeteer. I got your email about the 1953 Pacific typhoon season. I wondered what you meant by reformatting. Do you mean expanding? If so, that would be really beneficial. Almost all of the sections are empty. A few easy sources you could use:
Hopefully this is a good start! Good luck fellow Wikipedian. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:40, 17 September 2024 (UTC)

There was also a conversation at WT:GAN to the same effect; you responded there but didn't comment on the request for you not to review for a while. Since you've now picked up another review, can I ask you to address those concerns? You've had some experienced editors telling you you need to slow down, but you seem to be ignoring them. Can you tell me why? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 14:26, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

DCWC submission declinedHey TheNuggeteer, and thanks for your participation in the Developing Countries WikiContest. I've declined your submission of this GAN review for points as it does not meet the standards expected for a review of this kind. Your review is quite short and none of your comments make reference to the good article criteria to explain why you failed the nomination, and some of the suggestions you made — such as lengthening the lead or rearranging sections — are neither within the scope of a GAN review nor explicitly required by any policy or guideline. Please see the relevant section of the scoring rules for more information, and let me or another coordinator know if you have any questions. Speaking only as an editor and not an event coordinator, I would highly recommend that you immediately disengage from content quality–related processes on Wikipedia and focus your efforts elsewhere for some time. Many editors over the last few months have warned you about the improvements needed in the way you approach these processes. So far, those improvements have not been forthcoming, and continuing on that path will likely lead to the community placing sanctions on you based on the "competence is required" rule. These kinds of decisions are unnecessarily stressful for everyone involved, and will make it much harder for you to return to contributing to those areas in the future. I think everyone would prefer if that mess could be avoided, so the best option that I think you have is to voluntarily step away from article creation, GAN, FLC, NPP, and possibly others. Use your time away to take it slow, build your editorial experience in other areas, and familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines so you can come back in the future (at least a few months later) a much more constructive contributor. And you don't need to dive back into things headfirst, there are resources in place for you to seek help if you need it. For example, you could make use of the GA mentorship, articles for creation, or NPP school processes to ease your transition back into those roles with lower stakes and guidance from experienced editors. I hope you will consider my suggestions, and I wish you the best wherever your editing career takes you next. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 22:34, 22 September 2024 (UTC) Bilorv's minimalist challengeHey, I don't want to be the fun police, but that challenge is for getting an article to GA before there are 50 revisions in the page history total. Both of the articles you're citing have well over 100 edits, so they don't qualify. ♠PMC♠ (talk) 04:19, 23 September 2024 (UTC)
Hey, quick question: you have been around for a while and could create an article directly into mainspace yet decided to submit Draft:Bigkis Pinoy Movement for review (I'm currently going through the AfC backlog). Is there any specific reason for doing so? Superboilles (talk) 21:14, 23 September 2024 (UTC) Your submission at Articles for creation: Bigkis Pinoy Movement (September 24) Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by AlphaBetaGamma was:
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.
The Wikipedia LibraryHey there, I'm reviewing Philippines at the 1928 Summer Olympics which I saw you nominated for GA. I think looking at the improvements made by another editor before they renominated it, and their use of WP:The Wikipedia Library would really help you with writing better Wikipedia articles. Tell me if you have any questions. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 08:04, 24 September 2024 (UTC)

Try the Task Center. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Again, welcome! User:Matticusmadness (talk) 09:11, 28 September 2024 (UTC) I don’t see a welcome on your user page, and, given the current attention you’re getting, thought the links that most welcome templates give out, could serve useful. I’ve asked at the ANI thread what other tasks might fit your skill set. Might be worth chipping in there what you like doing? Danke. MM (Give me info.)

Suggestion/plea to help with a projectHey there TheNuggeteer, I wondered if you had any interest in helping with some of the older Pacific typhoon seasons. It's clear you have a passion for editing, so I wondered if you had any interest in this task. It's a really important project, but it might take some time. There is a need for most years between 1902 and 1935. You can use IBTRACS, which it seems you're familiar with. You can also use sources like the Monthly Weather Review. For example, September 1935 here. It's more useful, in my opinion, having more season articles, rather than making new storm articles. Lemme know what you think of the idea. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 01:01, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
Will try to find projects for you!Hey TheNuggeteer! I read about the ANI situation. Sorry to hear that you went through that. All long-term editors have been in a place once where we ran into some trouble, but I think (from the responses in the thread) you are handling it the correct way. While you are on your topic bans, I will try to help you find smaller projects to do (in between school, of course!). Here's one: I looked at 19th Congress of the Philippines and there are several members who do not have articles in English Wikipedia. Would you be interested in writing up some of those articles? If they exist in Tagalog Wikipedia, then translate it and either put it in draftspace or mainspace and then I (in AFC) or someone in NPP will look at it. If they don't have an article in the Tagalog wikipedia, then it may need to be written from scratch. Just remember to make sure it's got good sourcing and a NPOV. If you're not interested in that, let me know if there are other things I can suggest that we need help with. Best of luck Bkissin (talk) 21:03, 2 October 2024 (UTC) Asking explanation for declining draftHi, I saw you declined my draft for Comedy Central Family (Hungarian TV channel). I just took references from Hungarian Wikipedia'a article and I want to know: which of the sources I took are not reliable? PS: I already changed some references to that draft.

After a thrilling finish to the event with a slew of submissions on the final day, we have our winners. With 608 points, Thebiguglyalien (submissions) comes in third with his series of Kiribati and Botswanan submissions; BeanieFan11 (submissions) flies into second place at the last second with 771 points after a string of good articles about sportspersons; and after leading for much of contest's three months, Generalissima (submissions) finishes with a whopping 798 points to take home the Gold Belt Buckle. Congratulations to our winners! In addition to his spot in the top three, BeanieFan11 (submissions) also wins the special awards for submitting under the most countries (44 countries) and for writing the most articles about women (15 Did you know? nominations)! Magentic Manifestations (submissions), after making 16 submissions under the Indian flag—15 of them good articles—receives the awards for most submissions for a single country and most featured or good articles promoted. For their submission of one FAC review, five FLC reviews, and 20 GAN reviews, Simongraham (submissions) wins for most article reviews. The results of the contest have far exceeded any expectations the coordinators had for it at the beginning: among the submissions to the event were 3 FAs, 10 FLs, 88 GAs, dozens of article reviews of every kind, and more Did you know? submissions than we can count! Regardless of your level of participation, every contestant can be proud to have contributed towards a major step in countering the systemic bias on Wikipedia. Every year, millions of readers and editors around the globe use Wikipedia to educate themselves and communicate with others about parts of the world that often receive less attention than they deserve. Thank you for participating with us in the contest and contributing to this effort. The DCWC will return next year and we look forward to seeing you contribute again! However, before that... We need your feedback! Join the conversation on the talk page to discuss your reflections on the contest (even if you didn't participate!) and help us make it better.
