Aama (film)

I ran across the dodgy sentence in the first paragraph of 'Presentation"; "In the beginnings of Nepalese cinema there were no act in to watch production, distribution, and presentation of the Nepalese cinema." What does "no act in to watch production..." mean in this context? Is it meant to say 'no actors' in the sense of film actors, or perhaps actors meaning people who produce, distribute, etc? I'd check the given reference but the website wants me to use email, Facebook or Google. Removing the sentence seems preferable but I'd rather try to clarify it first. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 22:47, 21 April 2019 (UTC)
I've since rewritten the sentence according to my interpretation that Nepal had no film distribution infrastructure at that time; feel free to correct it if necessary. Cheers, Baffle☿gab 06:42, 23 April 2019 (UTC)
@Baffle gab1978: Yes Nepal did not have any film distribution infrastructure at that time. Also thanks for rewriting.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 09:20, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

John S. Lucas

Thank you for your guidance. I added a few more resources (with their respective links). Is there a way to include a Wikipedia as a resource? Wikipedia's Katy Keene page has John S. Lucas listed https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katy_Keene I was wondering if it is possible/appropriate to cross-reference. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eexton (talk • contribs) 15:59, 22 April 2019 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

Hi CAPTAIN MEDUSA, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Beeblebrox (talk) 17:15, 24 April 2019 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted

Hi CAPTAIN MEDUSA. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encylopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:

  • Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance. so that they are aware.
  • You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
  • If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
  • Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. -- Amanda (aka DQ) 06:22, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

Welcome to the team mate. If you haven't, please go check out the NPR Tutorial. In particular, check out the section on scripts, as there are quite a few there that help streamline the NPR workflow considerably. Cheers, — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here)(click me!) 19:27, 24 April 2019 (UTC)
@Insertcleverphrasehere: I've tried out some NPR scripts. Also thanks for the invite.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 16:24, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

Grant's Native American Policy article non-free tag

Why was a non-free tag put in the Native American policy of the Ulysses S. Grant administration. Can information in other Wikipedia articles be put in other Wikipedia articles ? No explantion was given in the talk page. Cmguy777 (talk) 17:52, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

@Cmguy777: see the comment left on the article's talk page.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 18:23, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Jim Riley

I declined your G12 tag and cleaned up the article. He looks notable, it's just the prose given (which had more puffery than Puff Daddy wearing a puffer jacket and eating a bowl of Sugar Puffs while listening to Puff the Magic Dragon and reading a book on the Passive Underwater Fire Control Feasibility System) wasn't suitable for an article, so needed rewriting anyway. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 19:55, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

@Ritchie333: Thanks for cleaning up the article. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 20:02, 25 April 2019 (UTC)

Recent changes

It will only invite users who have added a number of Wikidata descriptions in the app without being reverted. This is to avoid spam and bad edits. [7][8]

Problems

  • Tech News was late last week because of a MassMessage bug. Other newsletters had the same problem. [9]

Changes later this week

  • You will see when you last refreshed the recent changes page. This is so you can see how recent the changes are. [10]
  • When you write a comment in Structured Discussions but have not posted it yet your web browser will save it in local storage instead of session storage. This means you do not lose them even if you close your web browser. Structured Discussions used to be called Flow. [11]

Sir William Myers, 1st Baronet

Two comments regarding this review: Firstly the baronet has been dead more than 200 years, as noted in the draft's first sentence; that's not a BLP. Secondly, sources for the content were given; they just weren't formatted properly (ie external links in the body of the article instead of footnotes). Huon (talk) 15:45, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – May 2019

News and updates for administrators from the past month (April 2019).

Guideline and policy news

Technical news

  • XTools Admin Stats, a tool to list admins by administrative actions, has been revamped to support more types of log entries such as AbuseFilter changes. Two additional tools have been integrated into it as well: Steward Stats and Patroller Stats.

Arbitration

  • In response to the continuing compromise of administrator accounts, the Arbitration Committee passed a motion amending the procedures for return of permissions (diff). In such cases, the committee will review all available information to determine whether the administrator followed "appropriate personal security practices" before restoring permissions; administrators found failing to have adequately done so will not be resysopped automatically. All current administrators have been notified of this change.
  • Following a formal ratification process, the arbitration policy has been amended (diff). Specifically, the two-thirds majority required to remove or suspend an arbitrator now excludes (1) the arbitrator facing suspension or removal, and (2) any inactive arbitrator who does not respond within 30 days to attempts to solicit their feedback on the resolution through all known methods of communication.

NPR Newsletter No.18

Hello CAPTAIN MEDUSA,

WMF at work on NPP Improvements

Niharika Kohli, a product manager for the growth team, announced that work is underway in implementing improvements to New Page Patrol as part of the 2019 Community Wishlist and suggests all who are interested watch the project page on meta. Two requested improvements have already been completed. These are:

  • Allow filtering by no citations in page curation
  • Not having CSD and PRODs automatically marked as reviewed, reflecting current consensus among reviewers and current Twinkle functionality.
Reliable Sources for NPP

Rosguill has been compiling a list of reliable sources across countries and industries that can be used by new page patrollers to help judge whether an article topic is notable or not. At this point further discussion is needed about if and how this list should be used. Please consider joining the discussion about how this potentially valuable resource should be developed and used.

Backlog drive coming soon

Look for information on the an upcoming backlog drive in our next newsletter. If you'd like to help plan this drive, join in the discussion on the New Page Patrol talk page.

Problems

  • Some diffs show an error message when you try to see them. The developers are working on fixing it. It could be because of some edit comments. [17][18]

Future changes

  • The content translation tool on Wikipedia can use machine translations. There is a system to stop translations where the editors do not fix machine translation mistakes. This warns or stops them if they seem to just copy what the machine translation gives them. If this system is too strict or not strict enough you can tell the language team. [19]
  • Advanced item The Wikidata wbeditentity API endpoint will remove all aliases if the request includes an empty alias. This is how it supposed to work. It has not been working this way because of a bug. This will start on 12 June. [20]

DYK for Amazing Grace (2018 film)

On 23 May 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Amazing Grace (2018 film), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a documentary film of Aretha Franklin's (pictured) Amazing Grace concert in 1972 languished in a studio vault for decades because the director did not use a clapperboard? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Amazing Grace (2018 film). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Amazing Grace (2018 film)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.

Contested deletion

You have deleted a page "APYA", Unfortunately i am still learning the ropes on publishing an article to the wikipedia community, the page was developed with the intention of informing the community of the organisation, and its impacts on African descents. My intention is not to promote but to create an online presence for the organisation and educate the curious about its goals and objectives.

@Jcrowe2018: Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. Your article APYA failed WP:A7, WP:G11 which means your articles does not have reliable sources, does not show Notability. You may want to create a article in WP:FIRSTARTICLE. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 11:16, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

Malao Film Declination

Hi Captain Medusa, thanks for checking my article. I have a quick question: Why are these sources not reliable enough? The German version of it does already exist and it has even less sources/references than the English translation...

Thank you, Serge

@Sergemateso: Welcome to Wikipedia. The sources are not reliable because all of the article sources are from movie databases, including IMDB which are not considered reliable sources see WP:IMDBREF. Please find sources from newspaper, books, news article etc.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 14:42, 28 May 2019 (UTC)

Still the Best Loved game article rejection

Hello, I’m disappointed to see that my article on a book, Still the Best Loved Game?, has been rejected despite a source reference confirming its existence. The article is, in essence, no different from other articles on books that have been published (I can think of one that has no reference to its publication, only to awards it has won). I understand the need for standards, but there is also a need for consistency, which appears to be lacking. Perhaps you could advise me what is required for an article in a book beyond a reference confirming its existence? Regards, Neil Neilinabbey (talk) 19:47, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

@Neilinabbey: Hello thanks for your contributions. The article Still the Best Loved Game? has only one source, which leads to books.google.com where there noting about the book maybe there is mistake on citation. Please find sources from newspaper, news articles etc. Most of the paragraphs on the article are unsourced, please add sources to the claims made in those paragraphs.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 08:05, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. I'd still like to know, though, why this article requires more sources than other, similar articles? It seems there's an inconsistent approach here regarding the number of sources needed.Neilinabbey (talk) 08:25, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

@Neilinabbey: Hello, this article requires more sources due to various claims made by you such as, "Still the Best Loved Game? was inspired by the 1979 book The Best Loved Game, by Geoffrey Moorhouse, and generally follows the same format. Some of the original book's chapters are echoed in the new book, such as those on Test cricket, a county versus a touring side, the Roses Match, a Lancashire League game and CCanterbury Cricket Week.". Those claims need to be verified by a reliable sources to confirm its accuracy. Thanks.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 08:29, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

File move requests

Hello CAPTAIN MEDUSA! When making file rename requests, please remember to specify a reason in the second parameter of the {{rename media}} template. There is a list of commonly-accepted rename reasons at WP:FMV/W. Thanks, AntiCompositeNumber (talk) 18:16, 31 May 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I was looking in the rename media template where it says "The name of this media object is misspelled, incomplete, misleading, cryptic, does not conform to an established naming convention, is largely duplicative to another name, or shadows a file name on Wikimedia Commons. It has been suggested that this media object be renamed" which I thought a reviewer would look into. Also sorry about that.___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 12:21, 1 June 2019 (UTC)

Request on 20:46:17, 5 June 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by AugustTip

 I'm AugustTip.  .  I am trying to write about Gregg Jann of Jannda.com.  I think like him when he  states he has been a black listed speechmaker for US Presidents probably "Tear Down This Wall" speech fragment of Reagan, and for stating AIDS name and  acronym first and originally as his A Jann Plan book was released World Aids Day 2014.  Verifiable takes looking into his publisher, and his lawyer, and why the media would not publish important starts and parts of Gregg Jann's history except his many essays and editorials in local newspapers in 80s and 90s.  How to verify a "Black list", or verify a reluctant media topic?
 Gregg Jann wants attention, but he has a  duty to be known to the public as a former public official.  He has authored non-fiction books, writes in mental health education and coaching, and we know Sacramento sleights or steals credit from genesis endeavoring.  CA Prop 63 WAS in 2004 when it passed, and Gregg Jann is passed the daily newspapers in gaining his credit but the history of Wikipedia is the answer.  Do you see what is important especially for Wikipedia the encyclopedia from this article on Gregg Jann, for he is authentic and original about history making.===AugustTip June 5, 2018


AugustTip (talk) 20:46, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Merging the Bara-Parsa tornado articles

@CAPTAIN MEDUSA:, I saw that you placed merger tag on the article about the March 2019 southern Nepal tornado that I was working on. I have completed the merge and I also edited the resulting article extensively to make it stylistically consistent and to remove redundancies. But, I think the final article has more content from the source article than the destination one. So, I am not sure if I did it right. Maybe, I should have merged it the other way? I just liked the title better for specificity purpose but I am not sure anymore. I think I misread the discussion on the source talk page, also. Would you please look at what I've done and see if I've made some mistakes in the merger process? I was not sure if I was supposed to copy the discussions on the talk page from source to destination as well because it doesn't say anything like that on the "How to merge" guidelines, so I left it in the source talk page for now. Thanks! Usedtobecool TALK 19:55, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

I thought the lead there read more like a lead for "Tornadoes in Nepal", ie. more general and talked less about the actual tornado that the article is about. I am not satisfied with what I have either but at least it focuses on the actual subject. I have pinged the creator of that article. Turns out he's an admin with loads of FAs and GAs. We'll see what he has to say. Perhaps he does know better. Thanks for your help and the input. Also, for reviewing my userpage subpages.

Current text

Whether fish, such as this hooked salmon, can be said to feel pain is controversial

Proposed and reverted edit: Whether fish, such as this hooked salmon, feel pain has been debated for years. The balance of current evidence says yes.

The proposed change has been reverted although the current text does not align with the wikipedia page and the cited evidence. There isn't any controversy - at least not any more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.84.33.106 (talk) 19:13, 27 June 2019 (UTC)

2002 Women's Ice Hockey World Championships

I am puzzled by the creation process of this and three other similar redirects. Was there a discussion or rationale for why this exists at all? It strains the limits of plausibility to be a search item at all but if there was a previous discussion about it I thought it would be prudent to view that first.18abruce (talk) 22:27, 27 June 2019 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Bhuj – The Pride Of India

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Bhuj – The Pride Of India. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – [[:Bhuj: The Pride of India]]. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at [[:Bhuj: The Pride of India]]. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at [[Talk:Bhuj: The Pride of India|the article's talk page]].

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Rickyurs (talk) 03:04, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

draft article

My Name is Lennox Theodore Anderson and Sadly, this is the Only source that works. So on the Page General Juan Lopez, try finding other sources, try finding other ones. You could reply to me on why you declined it, and also explain how I could make this page better. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lennox Theodore Anderson (talk • contribs) 12:51, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

Lennox Theodore Anderson, Hello your articles need more sources, please find sources from books, newspaper, and news articles. Also, consider expanding the article it consists of one sentence. ___CAPTAIN MEDUSAtalk 12:57, 26 June 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter July-August 2019

Hello CAPTAIN MEDUSA,

WMF at work on NPP Improvements

More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters. Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at NPR. There is now also a live queue of AfC submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important.

QUALITY of REVIEWING

Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please be on the alert for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors. The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at NPR.

Backlog

The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever.

Move to draft

NPR is triage, it is not a clean up clinic. This move feature is not limited to bios so you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which might have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations.

Notifying users

Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are SPA and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for leaving a friendly note note for the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging.

PERM

Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome if absolutely necessary, but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway.

Other news

School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages.

Our next newsletter might be announcing details of a possible election for co-ordinators of NPR. If you think you have what it takes to micro manage NPR, take a look at New Page Review Coordinators - it's a job that requires a lot of time and dedication.
