Wiki loves love wikipedian contest

Hi Kaizenify, I am gathering all created articles for Wikipedia:Wiki Loves Love 2019 to put on this meta page, as this is an international contest. Have you got any yet to submit? --Nattes à chat (talk) 17:06, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

@Kaizenify:. No answers from you… The contest is finished and we need to gather the list of all published articles. @Wikilover90:. Do you have any to submit apart from the ones of the Tunis Write for rights contest which are clearly listed? --Nattes à chat (talk) 06:19, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Yes, please give me little time, will add to the list. BestWikilover90 (talk) 06:27, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Hi Nattes à chat; apologies for not responding on time. I am really just seeing all this now.. Ok as regards the articles, I have few ones so give me just some few hours to gather them and send it to you. thank you once again. Kaizenify (talk) 09:41, 2 April 2019 (UTC)
Thank you and sorry for bothering you! --Nattes à chat (talk) 18:40, 2 April 2019 (UTC)

Event coordinator granted

After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:

  • The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
  • The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
  • The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
  • Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.

If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 01:49, 16 April 2019 (UTC)

Manual Confirmations

Hello Kaizenify, please note the rule above about manually confirming accounts. You must set the expiration on these when manually processing. I have corrected the ones you made without expiration. — xaosflux Talk 13:45, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Reliable sources

Kaizenify, I left you a message about mirrors and bad sources a year ago - still on this page. Please immediately read our policy on biographies. The source you are edit warring to include is a junk scraper that steals content from sources, usually wikipedia, and has explicit disclaimers of accuracy on the site. Most of the material there is a simple copy of our artices (the page recently changes its naem from "uplclosed" to "peoplepill"). This is absolutely unacceptable as a source for anything, much less the birth date of a living person. Please immediately stop adding that source. If you have some odd feeling that the source is acceptable and that I'm lying to you, please start a conversation at WP:RSN before making any other changes. Kuru (talk) 13:03, 4 April 2020 (UTC)

Erroneous birth date

On 18 April 2020, you added an erroneous birth date to the Wikipedia page Abba Kyari (politician). Since you failed to cite a source, edit warring ensued. Not until 6 hours, 6 minutes later was it corrected and properly sourced. I have no doubt that your edit was in good faith. However, please realize that it served to publicly embarrass Wikipedia on social media, where the discrepancy was sharply criticized and taken as an affront by many of your fellow Nigerians. In future, please pay closer attention to Wikipedia's policy of Verifiability. NedFausa (talk) 21:55, 18 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you NedFausa, this is quite embarrassing and wasn't intended. I actually got the reference from The Nation (Nigeria), a major Nigerian newspaper here and so the error was made there. Thanks for pointing it out. Kaizenify (talk) 01:12, 19 April 2020 (UTC)
Hello there Kaiszenify sorry you had a face palm moment and I write this as a fellow Nigerian: this is hard lesson about the need to verify news sources out of Nigeria. Many times, they rely on Wikipedia and you can have error based recursion. All the best. Kunkuru (talk) 03:48, 21 April 2020 (UTC)

Translating Nelsa Cardoso, Spanish->English

Were you working on this? I was unable to see any progress, possibly due to a error in the translation system. [1]--Anon423 (talk) 00:45, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Tip of the month:

  • Use open-access references wherever possible, but a paywalled reliable source
    is better than none, particularly for biographies of living people.
