Need opinions on a draft

I would like your opinions whether you think this draft User:Dwnloda/sandbox is good enough to be submitted to the AFC and whether you see any issues with it or what edits or changes you recommend before it is submitted to the AFC. Overall do you think this page has a chance? Dwnloda (talk) 02:56, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Dwnloda: I see that you have declared your status of WP:PAID in regard to the article. I am not an AFC reviewer but the draft seems adequately sourced and is not promotional. The issue, as with many biographies of living people, will be whether it demonstrates they meet the relevant notability criteria and I see that you have sensibly mentioned how the draft does that, in your opinion. I suggest you go ahead and submit it and wait for the reviewers comments, later addressing any concerns they may have. Mike Turnbull (talk) 15:12, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Does anyone know what happened to the Top 1000 report from HostBot?

Looks like the Top 1000 hasn't been updated since the end of May 2022. See: User:HostBot/Top 1000 report. - Scarpy (talk) 03:23, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:HostBot has stopped working. The bot owner seems to be aware. Shantavira|^{feed me} 08:51, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye

Hi, I need help for Abbey of Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye and Abbey church of Saint-Antoine-l'Abbaye, specially about style, spelling and grammar. Both articles are translated from the French. We had a workshop last week-end, where we took more than 1000 pictures of the church and the village, so pictures will be added soon. I will add references when I find them (not easy). Thanks, Yann (talk) 16:15, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Yann: The church article is almost entirely unreferenced. Have you considered slimming it down somewhat and merging it into the Abbey's article, in a section entitled Church? TimTempleton ^(talk) ^(cont) 22:51, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I will add references. Both subjects could be several pages, it needs two different articles to cover them in dept. Yann (talk) 07:57, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Yann: Hi! I looked over the articles and did some editing. I also started some threads on the Abbey talk page. Birdsinthewindow (talk) 03:11, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Yann: Help desk discussions tend to be archived a little faster than discussions on other noticeboards perhaps; I believe the idea is to keep at most three or four days worth of discussions visible on the main HD page so as to keep the page somewhat easy to navigate; however, you don't really need to "unarchive" discussions like you did in this case if you want add something else to the discussion; it's OK to continue archived discussions on their respective archive pages. If you want to revive a previously archived discussion on the main HD page, it probably better to simply add a link to the archived discussion and then add your new comments instead of copying and pasting the entire discussion back onto the main HD page. -- Marchjuly (talk) 08:06, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

List of Trojans for Representative Government members

Moved to Draft:List of Trojans for Representative Government members by User:Bbb23.
I made a copy at User:0mtwb9gd5wx/List of Trojans for Representative Government members.
User:DGG then Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:0mtwb9gd5wx/List of Trojans for Representative Government members
The topic refers to a University of Southern California fraternity cohort who later worked at the White House for Richard Nixon.
What could his objection be?

"Inappropriate use of wikipedia, speedy deleted already as A7, but then restored. There is no imaginable potential for an article."

How do I hold a site-wide RfC on changing a Wiki guideline?

I want to scrap the Wikipedia:Article size#Size guideline. How do I hold a site-wide RfC for this? Ak-eater06 (talk) 18:16, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Ak-eater06. I think WP:VPPR would be a good place to start. ColinFine (talk) 18:24, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind. I got it. Ak-eater06 (talk) 18:38, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Milepost table looks wrong

On U.S._Route_75_in_Kansas#Junction_list, after "US-54 – Eureka, Iola", the milepost cells are shifted to the right. What might be causing this? weeklyd3 (message me | my contributions) 20:05, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I accidentally put a milepost into the lspan parameter. It's right now. weeklyd3 (message me | my contributions) 20:06, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Box section

For the article RoboCop 3, something went wrong after I edited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.120.55.67 (talk) 22:29, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. It looks like in this edit, you closed the infobox template before the parameters. I'll fix it. weeklyd3 (message me | my contributions) 22:35, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
