Since ProdBLP

[edit]

It would be nice if this list only showed articles created from March 18, 2010. Or somehow indicated date. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 13:23, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, they are mostly chronological.... --MZMcBride (talk) 16:28, 25 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

New articles that are potentially unreferenced BLPs

[edit]

Finally got some results on User:AlexNewArtBot/URBLPNTSearchResult. This is a process to find potentially completely unreferenced BLPs. Similiar to the [Wikipedia:Database reports]] that User:LaraBot does. The advantages of this report is that it's way deeper in it's checking over articles for references, infoboxes and templates. The draw back is that it's only updated once or twice weekly using the toolserve cache so the result could be a while out of date. There will be some false positives.

PS currently going through this list and tagging etc various articles. So if you plan checking this you may like to watchlist it and check it at future runs. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 17:16, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Does authority control count as a reference?

[edit]

If not, why not? Template:Authority control identifies one or more reliable sources on which an article is based, in whole or in part (see WP:REF). Is a reference to the same link as an article's authority control necessary to prevent the article being tagged as "unreferenced"? If so, isn't that rather sad?

Mostly reffed

[edit]

The vast majority of these items have a statistics reference in the gridiron football infobox. Arguably this should be a footnoted ref., but regardless I have made a slimmed down version of today's list at this page. Please feel free to copy it to en:WP to work on it.
