Declined The name change is not in dispute. However, the existing claim in the article itself is unreferenced. The source given is a weekend magazine section from Ireland, and the source of their information is unknown.Spintendo 20:18, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
That's just a photograph. The problem is that the claim statement says that the falls are "near" the Reserve. What the word near means here is anyone's guess, as no maps have been provided showing the Reserve's exact geographical boundaries.Spintendo 20:55, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
No, the article has text if you click beyond the survey. It says, "I’m here for Majete’s access to the Kapichira Falls, which Livingstone called the Murchison Cataracts after Sir Roderick Murchison of the Royal Geographic Society. The bonus is our secluded, turf-roofed, solar-powered woodland chalet overlooking the Shire River." Inkian Jason (talk) 21:01, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Already declined Malawi is a small country, and it is not unexpected that a large reserve would be located near a lot of things found in that country. However, I'm not going to rubber stamp the Reserve's desire to increase their visibility through the mentioning of the Reserve on every Wikipedia article related to Malawi.Spintendo 21:20, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
The correction of outdated WL's appears to be a part of edits which COI editors are allowed to make themselves, per part 4 of the guidance on Uncontroversial edits. If you wish to have these changes made, it would seem reasonable to make them yourself, with the guidance I just mentioned as your license to act.Spintendo 21:32, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Spintendo: Thanks for the permission, but I do not edit articles directly, hence the talk page requests. I agree, these are not controversial, but I've noticed many requests have been declined. Inkian Jason (talk) 21:35, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not giving you permission, thats not my role. I'm saying you have long established guidance to use as your license to act if you wish to do so. I feel that these edits are ultimately done for promotional reasons by those administering these Reserves. There doesn't seem to be any other reason why these reserves should go out of their way to make mention of themselves on other loosely related articles. That is why I won't agree to these requests. I'll leave the template open for other editor's to act. Spintendo 22:13, 23 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
OK, thanks for clarifying. But please don't assume these requests are being submitted for promotional reasons. Again, I am not submitting requests to add links, I am simply trying to update the park's name where it's already mentioned throughout Wikipedia, using the "What links here" tool (see results for "Majete Game Reserve" here).
