BLP issues in Matthew Charles Johnson

Hi Arconning, since you reviewed the above article for GA, I should let you know I have voiced concerns about BLP issues in the article on its talk page here (permalink). Cheers, Baffle☿gab 02:03, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Baffle gab1978 I'm confused, they are sourced? "In May 1999, Johnson was sentenced for his participation in an attack on a protected inmate in Barwon Prison, for which he received a 20-month prison sentence. In September the following year, Johnson was tried for an attack on contract killer Gregory Brazel in Barwon Prison's Acacia unit." is cited to reference 2 and 5, and they do clearly contain information regarding the statement? Is it a problem that it's sourced at the end of the paragraph rather than every statement? Arconning (talk) 03:01, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Baffle gab1978 Oh I've seen the other comments, and I have to apologize as I did not know that was part of the criteria, I will try to do my best in the future to avoid these other mistakes again regarding the primary sources. Arconning (talk) 03:06, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, thanks for dealing with the article. I don't usually "police" GAs but since I was copy-editing it, I though it best to raise my concerns. In a BLP, every point made should have a citation because unsourced content can easily be added. My major concern though was the use of court documents in the article, which the BLP policy forbids. I did check the document about his murder trial, which the article does agree with, but there should be a secondary source. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 21:25, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Zoe Smith/GA1

Hi there, are you sure this one is a quickfail? A fail of 2a means there are no references at all - I've never seen this in a GAN, and it's not the case here either. I don't see any QF reason in the issues you've listed, either. They all seem like pretty quick fixes, and none appear to be dealbreakers for a GA? -- asilvering (talk) 20:27, 18 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Asilvering I think I've misread the criterion, I deeply apologize for this easily avoided mistake on my part. I don't think it should be a QF at this time. I'm more than happy if I could review again, if that's the case. Arconning (talk) 08:30, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since the review has been closed, it's probably best to leave it where it is (rather than trying to undo it), but you could let the nominator know that you think they should resubmit and you'll have a second look. -- asilvering (talk) 13:05, 19 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

DCWC closing update

The 2024 Developing Countries WikiContest has come to a close! 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.

If you have any questions, please leave a message on the contest talk page or ask one of the coordinators: Ixtal (talk · contribs), sawyer777 (talk · contribs), or TechnoSquirrel69 (talk · contribs).
