A suggestion for News section on signpost

[edit]

I remember asking one of the signpost regulars on discord about it, but it didn't actually get added. But meta:Wikimedia_Foundation_Bulletin/2024 was started last month and might be good for a small section on the News section. Best I can understand, it's WMF's ways of keeping the community updated on all departments and they recently published the one for 06-02, so we might see 07-01 before next signpost even. It's something I think more people will want to know about Soni (talk) 19:01, 6 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Miss International 2024

[edit]

Hello, why you remove these countries to contestants list. You cant falsing information Celestecourtesi (talk) 08:11, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Celestecourtesi:, I assume you are referring to this or an edit similar to it. The answer is simple and it isn't "falsing information". All information on Wikipedia must be verifiable: this is one of the core policies explained at WP:Verifiability. You or I or anyone else can remove information from articles that needs references, and is lacking them. So that's what I did. Please reply here or at one of the help boards if you don't understand. ☆ Bri (talk) 16:12, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note to talkpage stalkers

[edit]

Fellow Wikipedians, I'm about to take a hiatus on most editing, starting with lightening up on monitoring of beauty pageant articles. It's a mess of unattributed unreferenced content, nonstandard markup including inappropriate use of flags, and ... let's say passionate editors. I hope that others like @Sciencefish: can keep the momentum moving in the right direction. This is after all an encyclopedia, not a fansite. I've listed some pages to watch at the top of this note, which I'll soon be taking off of my own watchlist. Note that many of these pages are protected due to persistent disruptive editing (including sockfarms) and all are under WP:GS/PAGEANTS. ☆ Bri (talk) 16:54, 8 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Slowking4

[edit]
Potentially G5 eligible articles

Thanks for filing that SPI. I had noticed both Gonecarpe and Oilycoldly and thought something odd was going on with them but am not familiar with Slowking. I tagged Gonecarp's article for G5 deletion because I did not think most of them really met notability anyway. Are you going to go through any other the other socks and tag those for G5? If so, let me know if you need help. Happy to grab a group or two. S0091 (talk) 17:21, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@S0091: Yes, I G5'ed one of their creations but will have to take a break for a while. Go crazy with the rest. ☆ Bri (talk) 22:20, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Some of those had too many edits by other editors to be eligible for G5 and while I did tag Ana Laura Portuondo Isasi, another editor removed it. S0091 (talk) 14:54, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It looks like that editor had added some external links and an infobox, which IMO is not sufficient to qualify as a "substantial edit by other non-banned editors", but probably not worth fighting. ☆ Bri (talk) 15:27, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Teen USA (& Miss USA) articles

[edit]

Hi Bri. While I was taking a break from WP I noticed you redirected many of the Miss Teen USA and Miss USA articles. Most have significant media coverage as evidenced by a quick search in Newspapers.com, but at the moment the Wikipedia Library connection is broken so that while I can search and view the articles, I can't clip them to reference in the article. Just wondering what the best way forward would be? Wait until they (hopefully) fix the Newspapers.com connection? Or just reference the newspaper details without a clipping link? I was able to fix some of the Miss USA articles from existing clips but the job would be a lot easier starting the research from scratch. Cheers CJinoz (talk) 11:17, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure exactly which page you intend to work on, but I think the ones I redirected had at most one or two sources. I guess the best way is to wait until your sources are accessible, then restore the page from the last revision prior to the redirect, and add the sources? Still, adding just one source to a one-source article probably won't be good enough for general notability, so I hope you plan to bring them up to snuff for WP:NEVENT. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:22, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I just re-read your note and maybe you're worried about referencing an article that you can read without a URL to paste? This is OK, if you look at Wikipedia:Citing sources#Newspaper articles, you don't have to have an URL for a valid newspaper citation in Wikipedia. ☆ Bri (talk) 17:23, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Charm

[edit]

Hello Bri, I know why not have a date for Miss Charm. That's why you put in draft 77.77.219.118 (talk) 10:10, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello anon. Yes, I draftified Miss Charm 2024. It was postponed as I noted leaving no indication that there is a Miss Charm 2024. Also discussed this on the talkpage before draftifying. Does this satisfy your inquiry? ☆ Bri (talk) 16:28, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
