Your submission at Articles for creation: Luke Toki (January 3)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
This draft, as written, does not appear to indicate that the appropriate notability criterion is satisfied. In particular, this draft does not appear to indicate that WP:NBIO is satisfied. If one of the criteria is satisfied, please revise this draft appropriately, with a reliable source, if necessary stating on the talk page or in AFC comments which criterion is met, and resubmit. It is the responsibility of the submitter to show that a subject satisfies a notability criterion.

You may ask for advice about the notability criteria at the Teahouse.

In particular, see and refer to WP:NBIO for notability, which is the guideline that the subject should be evaluated against.

The added material is More Of The Same and does not appear to establish notability.
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 when they have been resolved.

Australian Survivor numbering system

Hello! Are there any citations for the claim that Charlie Parsons prefers the Wikpedia/Castaway Productions numbering system for Australian Survivor? This numbering system is extremely confusing for new or recent Australian viewers as well as for viewers coming to the show from Paramount Plus. The 2002 and 2006 renditions are not even widely available anymore. I believe there should at least be some acknowledgement of the different numbering systems or the confusion caused by this at the top of each season's page, not merely in a citation or footnote.

I have not used a talk page before, so apologies for any errors in decorum.

Soupcat (talk) 20:54, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

@Soupcat: Hi Soupcat, this is the reference which is linked in the Australian Survivor article.
I understand that this could be confusing to some newer viewers although seeking consensus on the article talk page before making significant or potentially controversial changes is necessary. For more info on talk pages, see H:TALK, WP:TALKPAGE or WP:TPG. Happily888 (talk) 05:18, 20 January 2022 (UTC)

That reference link leads to a 404 error. Soupcat (talk) 21:09, 22 January 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)

WikiCup 2022 March newsletter

And so ends the first round of the WikiCup. Last year anyone who scored more than zero points moved on to Round 2, but this was not the case this year, and a score of 13 or more was required to proceed. The top scorers in Round 1 were:

  • New York (state) Epicgenius, a finalist last year, who led the field with 1906 points, gained from 32 GAs and 19 DYKs, all on the topic of New York buildings.
  • Christmas Island AryKun, new to the contest, was second with 1588 points, having achieved 2 FAs, 11 GAs and various other submissions, mostly on the subject of birds.
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132, a WikiCup veteran, was in third place with 682 points, garnered from 51 In the news items and several DYKs.
  • Philadelphia GhostRiver was close behind with 679 points, gained from achieving 12 GAs, mostly on ice hockey players, and 35 GARs.
  • United Nations Kavyansh.Singh was in fifth place with 551 points, with an FA, a FL, and many reviews.
  • SounderBruce was next with 454 points, gained from an FA and various other submissions, mostly on United States highways.
  • United Nations Ktin, another WikiCup veteran, was in seventh place with 412 points, mostly gained from In the news items.

These contestants, like all the others who qualified for Round 2, now have to start scoring points again from scratch. Between them, contestants completed reviews of a large number of good articles as the contest ran concurrently with a GAN backlog drive. Well done all! To qualify for Round 3, contestants will need to finish Round 2 among the top thirty-two participants.

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Anything that should have been claimed for in Round 1 is no longer eligible for points. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

WikiCup 2022 May newsletter

The second round of the 2022 WikiCup has now finished. It was a high-scoring round and contestants needed 115 points to advance to round 3. There were some very impressive efforts in round 2, with the top seven contestants all scoring more than 500 points. A large number of the points came from the 11 featured articles and the 79 good articles achieved in total by contestants.

Our top scorers in round 2 were:

  1. New York (state) Epicgenius, with 1264 points from 2 featured article, 4 good articles and 18 DYKs. Epicgenius was a finalist last year but has now withdrawn from the contest as he pursues a new career path.
  2. Christmas Island AryKun, with 1172 points from two featured articles, one good article and a substantial number of featured article and good article reviews.
  3. Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132, with 605 points from 44 in the news items and 4 DYKs.
  4. Sammi Brie, with 573 points from 8 GAs and 21 DYKs.
  5. Ealdgyth, with 567 points from 11 GAs and 34 good and featured article reviews.
  6. United States Panini!, with 549 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and several other sources.
  7. England Lee Vilenski, with 545 points from 1 FA, 4 GAs and a number of reviews.

The rules for featured and good article reviews require the review to be of sufficient length; brief quick fails and very short reviews will generally not be awarded points. Remember also that DYKs cannot be claimed until they have appeared on the main page. As we enter the third round, any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed now, and anything you forgot to claim in round 2 cannot! Remember too, that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hey Happily888

Happily888, can you please link SBS TV (South Korean TV channel) on Korean articles on the English Wikipedia that currently link to SBS TV. I already asked Liz and she said she was busy doing admin work and I want to thank you. From Bas. Bassie f (talk) 06:56, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

WikiCup 2022 July newsletter

The third round of the 2022 WikiCup has now come to an end. Each of the sixteen contestants who made it into the fourth round had at least 180 points, which is a lower figure than last year when 294 points were needed to progress to round 4. Our top scorers in round 3 were:

  • Zulu (International Code of Signals) BennyOnTheLoose, with 746 points, a tally built both on snooker and other sports topics, and on more general subjects.
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132, with 683 points, garnered mostly from "In the news" items and related DYKs.
  • Sammi Brie, with 527, from a variety of submissions related to radio and television stations.

Between them contestants achieved 5 featured articles, 4 featured lists, 51 good articles, 149 DYK entries, 68 ITN entries, and 109 good article reviews. As we enter the fourth round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 3 but before the start of round 4 can be claimed in round 4. Please also remember that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met. Please also remember that all submissions must meet core Wikipedia policies, regardless of the review process.

If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article nomination, a featured process, or anything else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required).

Your submission at Articles for creation: Luke Toki (July 4)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Robert McClenon was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
This draft has been resubmitted without any visible improvement, or with very little improvement. If you do not know what is needed to improve this draft, please ask for advice rather than making minor improvements and resubmitting.

You may ask for advice on how to improve this draft at the Teahouse or on the talk pages of any of the declining reviewers. (The declining reviewers may advise you to ask for advice at the Teahouse.)

If this draft is resubmitted without any improvement or with very little improvement again, it is likely to be rejected, and it may be nominated for deletion, or a topic-ban may even be requested against further submission by the responsible editor.

This draft, as written, does not appear to indicate that the appropriate notability criterion is satisfied. In particular, this draft does not appear to indicate that WP:NBIO is satisfied. If one of the criteria is satisfied, please revise this draft appropriately, with a reliable source, if necessary stating on the talk page or in AFC comments which criterion is met, and resubmit. It is the responsibility of the submitter to show that a subject satisfies a notability criterion.

You may ask for advice about the notability criteria at the Teahouse.

In particular, see and refer to WP:NBIO for notability, which is the guideline that the subject should be evaluated against.

There is a myth in Wikipedia that adding more references is always the key to acceptance of a draft. That is a myth. Simply adding another reference is often not useful.
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.

WikiCup 2022 September newsletter

WikiCup 2022 September newsletter

The fourth round of the WikiCup has now finished. 383 points were required to reach the final, and the new round has got off to a flying start with all finalists already scoring. In round 4, Bloom6132 with 939 points was the highest points-scorer, with a combination of DYKs and In the news items, followed by BennyOnTheLoose, Sammi Brie and Lee Vilenski. The points of all contestants are swept away as we start afresh for the final round.

At this stage, we say goodbye to the eight competitors who didn't quite make it; thank you for the useful contributions you have made to the Cup and Wikipedia, and we hope you will join us again next year. For the remaining competitors, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them, and importantly, before the deadline on October 31st!

If you are concerned that your nomination, whether it be for a good article, a featured process, or anything else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required).

You forgot to create the article 2023 in Australian television yesterday

Dear, @Happily888

You forgot to create the article 2023 in Australian television yesterday, so can you please create the article using formatting from 2022 in Australian television soon or tomorrow because there's already 5 2023 in television articles. From Bas. Bassie f (talk) 23:27, 1 January 2023 (UTC)

Also in our timezone (GMT+11), yesterday was New Year’s Day Bassie f (talk) 23:28, 1 January 2023 (UTC)
{{Done}}: Bassie, just a reminder that you could always be WP:BOLD and start a new article, (or if you'd prefer, to create a draft or userspace draft) yourself. Happily888 (talk) 02:47, 2 January 2023 (UTC)
Thanks Happily888 Bassie f (talk) 04:13, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Hey Happily888, can you please do what's in the description

Hey Happily888, can you please check what linked to Nine (Southern Cross Austereo) and Southern Cross Nine prior to August 2022, when I edited some articles that linked to both redirects and what articles still don't link to both. Both are redirects to 10 (Southern Cross Austereo). From Bas. Bassie f (talk) 04:29, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

Also, Happily888, can you please list them in number format like this:
1. (Article)
2. (Article)
3. (Article)
4. (Article) Bassie f (talk) 04:33, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
{{Done}} Bassie f: Sorry, but I'm unsure why you're asking me to do this, and don't have the time to do this for you currently. You would be able to do this manually by just going through your contributions or using the WhatLinksHere tool.
In future, try reading WP:BEBOLD first and I would also recommend that you would please try do the edits you want to do yourself first – if they are reverted or someone brings the edit up on your talk page, then you can discuss it or ask for help. Happily888 (talk) 11:45, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
I will do it myself per WP:BOLD Bassie f (talk) 20:08, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
So, it turns out the articles Deniliquin, TNQ, Drouin, Victoria, Canowindra, User:The Strikester/Userboxes/Southern Cross 10, QTQ, Cooma, Parkes, New South Wales, WTFN, Ballarat, SGS/SCN, Broken Hill, TDT (TV station), State Focus, Sharyn Ghidella, Canberra, Colac, Victoria, Australian Capital Territory, Southern Cross Media Group, Rockhampton, Rockhampton City, Queensland and CTC (TV station) did link to Southern Cross Nine or Nine (Southern Cross Austereo) prior to August 2021 and now link to GLV/BCV, TNQ, 10 (Southern Cross Austereo), Southern Cross Ten or Southern Cross 10, thanks to me. I didn't count the articles that still link to Southern Cross Nine or Nine (Southern Cross Austereo), for example the Nine Network article has literally only 1 link to Nine (Southern Cross Austereo), prior to August 2022, a Nine (Southern Cross Austereo) link was also in the infobox of the Nine Network article. From Bas. Bassie f (talk) 01:48, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Hey Happily888

Would you please retarget PrimeTV and other related redirects to Prime (disambiguation)#Television. From Bas. Bassie f (talk) 10:12, 28 September 2022 (UTC)

Hi, I won't do this as I don't think this is necessary, as redirects should link to WP:PTOPICs (what a reader is most likely searching for) where possible and the redirects are, from my perspective, appropriately targeted already to the most likely related article that a reader would be searching for. The hatnote on Prime7 contains a link to the disambiguation page too, so the disambiguation page is easily accessible already if for some reason a user gets to the wrong article.
Of course, if you disagree with something on wikipedia and want to change it, please just be WP:BOLD and edit it. If you're unsure, just start a discussion on the article's talk page, rather than waiting for someone else to make edits or add content to articles you want to be changed.

Copyvio request at Rock Island Mysteries

Hi Happily888, could you please check to see if the revdel at Rock Island Mysteries is correct? The second diff you supplied was incorrect, so I took a guess and removed upwards to your last close paraphrasing. Thanks. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 13:10, 30 October 2022 (UTC)

WikiCup 2022 November newsletter

The 2022 WikiCup has drawn to a close with the final round going down to the wire. The 2022 champion is

  • England Lee Vilenski (1752 points), who won in 2020 and was runner up in both 2019 and last year. In the final round he achieved 3 FAs and 15 GAs, mostly on cue sports. He was closely followed by
  • Kingdom of Scotland Bloom6132 (1732), who specialised in "In the news" items and DYKs, and who has reached the final round of the Cup for the past three years. Next was
  • Zulu (International Code of Signals) BennyOnTheLoose (1238), another cue sports enthusiast, also interested in songs, followed by
  • New York City Muboshgu (1082), an "In the news" contributor, a seasoned contestant who first took part in the Cup ten years ago. Other finalists were
  • Sammi Brie (930), who scored with a featured article, good articles and DYKs on TV and radio stations,
  • United Nations Kavyansh.Singh (370), who created various articles on famous Americans, including an FA on Louis H. Bean, famed for his prediction of election outcomes. Next was
  • Chicago PCN02WPS (292), who scored with good articles and DYKs on sporting and other topics and

During the WikiCup, contestants achieved 37 featured articles, 349 good articles, 360 featured article reviews, 683 good article reviews and 480 In the news items, so Wikipedia has benefited greatly from the activities of WikiCup competitors. Well done everyone! All those who reached the final round will receive awards and the following special awards will be made, based on high performance in particular areas of content creation and review. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, these prizes are awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round, or the overall leader in this field.

  • England Lee Vilenski wins the featured article prize, for a total of 6 FAs during the course of the competition and 3 in the final round.
  • United Nations Kavyansh.Singh wins the featured list prize, for 3 FLs in round 2.
  • Adam Cuerden wins the featured picture prize, for 39 FPs during the competition.
  • Toronto Z1720 wins the featured article reviewer prize, for 35 FARs in round 4.

You are invited to sign up to take part in the contest; the WikiCup is open to all Wikipedians, both novices and experienced editors, and we hope to have a good turnout for the 2023 competition.

Red ensign flag

The explanation for this can be found in the Whitepapers Realm and commonwealth by Steven Spiers. Well worth the read for the truth of the commonwealth and the flag. 2001:8003:3810:EB00:C121:7B7F:66E1:4F23 (talk) 22:16, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Edit reversion

"Julius" is not the name of the gens, otherwise it would have been titled Julius gens. Clarityfiend (talk) 19:43, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

No, Julia gens refers to the Roman family, which is used by members as the stem of their name "Julius" – Julia gens#Members. If you had read that article, you would have seen how they were clearly linked and how it is a better target for the "Julius" redirect. The name "Julius" inherently refers to, for most users, a member of the Roman family, rather than the large number of people found at Julius (name) which are much more ambiguous and are much less detailed in terms of information.
