Question from BALRAM KUMAVAT (22:52, 3 February 2022)

Hello --BALRAM KUMAVAT (talk) 22:52, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Mothica

On 4 February 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Mothica, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Mothica (pictured) credits TikTok for the success of her career as a musician? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Mothica. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Mothica), 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.

Your submission at Articles for creation: Antilibrary has been accepted

Antilibrary, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

If you would like to help us improve this process, please consider leaving us some feedback.

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Margot Heuman on OTD

Thanks for adding Margot Heuman to Wikipedia:Selected anniversaries/February 17. I am planning on including her this year, but I have one concern, which is that the introduction is kind of short. Can you expand it a bit so that it summarizes the entire article? Thanks. howcheng {chat} 18:22, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks so much, howcheng! I've expanded the lede. ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 19:03, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
That's good, but now I think it's too long. You don't have to be too detailed. Just hit the high points and you'll be good to go. With an article of this length, I wouldn't expect more than one or two paragraphs at most. howcheng {chat} 19:28, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
Sorry about that, howcheng – the too-long lede is a recurring problem of mine. (It's all interesting!) I trimmed it down a bunch, if you want to take another look? ezlev (user/tlk/ctrbs) 19:47, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

  • AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
  • The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future. Cheers, Primefac, via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:00, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
