Proposed deletion of Center for Computer Games Research

[edit]

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Center for Computer Games Research, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Unreferenced for nearly three years, fails WP:V

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Stifle (talk) 10:47, 22 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The article Digital Arts and Culture has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I don't believe this is a notable organisational event. Created in 2006 and flagged for citations since 2012, limited change has occurred and no references are present

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Jamzze (talk) 09:29, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

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.

A tag has been placed on Gabriele de Seta requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, 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. Ari T.

Wow! I only just saw this! I am amazed that you would want to delete it - they have won multiple prizes and their work is cited in multiple scholarly papers which I think I referenced in the article! What can I do to contest the deletion at this point? Lijil (talk) 21:52, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Joanne Roberts - possible mix up up another Joanne Roberts

[edit]

Dear Lijil, Hope is OK to bother you with this. I was looking at the AFD on Joanne Roberts and was looking up things to try and see about notability. The first entry in Selected Readings -(Amin, Ash, and Joanne Roberts. 2008. Community, economic creativity, and organization. Oxford: Oxford University Press.) which was added by User:DaffodilOcean (who I have also notified) might be by another person with a similar/the same name (I thing she is not the same as the Joanne K. Roberts) See here: https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/5x9xnm/professor-joanne-roberts. I think you added some reviews of this book to try to help with notability but.. . Just letting you know.

I noticed you added Category:Computer-related introductions in 1845 to The Eureka. What is the purpose of this category supposed to be? I don't know what 'introduction' means in this context. And the link to what is supposed to be its parent category is broken: it redirects to Category.

ChatGPT and translation

[edit]

Hey, Lijil. I recently came across the article Fugl (novel) and found a mistranslation from Northern Sámi that changed the quote to be about something completely different. I've fixed it now. I implore you, do not use ChatGPT to translate material. It does not have the prerequisite input to handle something like that, so it outputs complete falsehoods with no way of detecting it. If you need something translated from another language, then you should try to contact someone who speaks the language to aide you. I happen to be able to translate between Northern Sámi and English (and to a lesser extent other Sámi languages), so if you encounter Sámi-language sources, please message me on my talk page. Thanks.

Hello, Lijil

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Tidsreiser for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons. For more details please see the notice on the article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Tidsreiser moved to draftspace

[edit]

An article you recently created, Tidsreiser, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Liz Read!

Note about ELMCIP properties on Wikidata

[edit]

Hi Liji,

I just got back last night after midnight & am a little sick with stuffiness & post nasal drip, so a little slow due to sinus activity. I am in the Pacific time zone, PST UTC-8. I believe that you are in Central European Time, CET UTC+1h. Thus we are a seven hour difference.

I do not know what hours you keep for this, but I am sure that we can work out something for a Zoom call that is early morning for me & a late afternoon or early evening for you. Meanwhile I will start working on the proposals for ELMCIP properties: Author, Organizations, Publishers and Journals. I think there was another that LoveElectronicLiterature & I had discussed, but I will have to check with her. Peaceray (talk) 21:42, 16 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Peaceray! I think the other database was The NEXT: https://the-next.eliterature.org/ I'll send you a few suggestions for times we could meet up! As I understand it there would need to be a proposal here and then there'll be a discussion and decision based on that? So probably we should make sure that ELMCIP is solid enough that the criteria are clearly met before proposing it? Having your help in figuring out how to meet those criteria and make ELMCIP work as well as possible will be very helpful. Lijil (talk) 08:21, 17 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Women in Red

[edit]

Hi there, Lijil, and welcome to Women in Red. I'm glad to see you now intend to spend more of your editing time creating biographies of women in electronic literature and in technology. I realize you are an experienced contributor but in this connection, you might find it useful to look through our Primer. Thank you also for writing a number of articles in connection with electronic literature and for creating WikiProject Electronic literature. According to Category:WikiProject Electronic literature articles, there are only 14 articles today but I am confident it will expand as it gains wider attention. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 08:32, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I only created the template that populates Category:WikiProject Electronic literature articles last week, so the category is not well populated yet. I think I need to request a bot to go through relevant categories. The template also has a women=yes parameter but I don't think I've got the code right to make it auto populate a category for articles about women. I figured joining Women in Red would help me learn more about working in a WikiProject while doing something important for the Wikipedia! Lijil (talk) 09:32, 30 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I've been populating it manually and there are now over 200 articles. I only discovered the women option later but I've started to work on it. In connection with possible assessment (see WP Electronic literature talk page discussion), I'm also working on Class in the banner shell which will then be reflected in Elit assessments. Given the very small number of biographies of men, it looks as if it would be useful to create red lists people can work on. (Don't forget to ping me if you want me to respond.)--Ipigott (talk) 09:35, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Wow, thank you, @Ipigott! I'll look into making a red list - you mean generally for all authors of electronic literature, right? And/or maybe one for works actually. Lijil (talk) 14:01, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's no rush but if we are to promote the project more widely, I think one of the best ways to gain interest and involvement would be to start with redlists on the main project page. Up to now we've concentrated mainly on women but we should now make sure deserving men are also included. And works by both men and women should also lead to more articles. I was thinking we could begin by including a section on "Requested articles" along the lines of Wikipedia:Requested articles/Biography/By profession. If we start with perhaps 20 men and women authors and 20 works, that would provide an initial basis for creating new articles. Later we can perhaps develop a separate subpage.--Ipigott (talk) 14:57, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On the basis of your project banner, I've created Template:User WikiProject Electronic literature which can added to users' talk pages. You might like to improve it.--Ipigott (talk) 15:31, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you @Ipigott!! Looks great! I made a Wikipedia-generated redlink list today - so exciting to figure out how to do this! I put a msg about it on the WikiProject Talk page: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Electronic literature#Redlink lists Lijil (talk) 16:25, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Progress on WP:Elit

[edit]

As we now seem to be progressing pretty well on basics for the project, do you think it would be useful to bring it to the attention of related wikiprojects? I'm thinking of WP Literature, WP Women's literature, WP Books, WP Poetry, WP Novels, WP Science fiction, WP Children's literature, WP Computing, WP Writing, WP Video games, WP Internet and WP Internet culture. You may like to suggest more yourself. We could post a short message on their talk pages, suggesting that some of their participants might like to take part and inviting them to provide any feedback or suggestions on the Elit talk page. Perhaps Rosiestep and LoveElectronicLiterature will also have suggestions.--Ipigott (talk) 15:05, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's a good idea, Ipigott though, IMO: (a) no rush to do it, and (b) I'd give consideration to copying/moving this message from Lijil's talkpage to a new section on the WP:Elit talkpage, with a clarifying title, e.g., "Notifying related WikiProjects" or some such. In that space, a group of interested editors could draft the message, decide who'll notify which WikiProjects, when they'll do it, etc. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:30, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Great idea! I'm going to be pretty busy elsewhere over the next days, and also need to prioritise getting Electronic literature improved since it's undergoing GA review (thank you to the patient reviewer) so I don't have time right now, but perhaps it doesn't require too much? I was also wondering about sending out info on wider mailing lists (e.g. Association of Internet Researchers) to invite people we may not yet know about. Lijil (talk) 15:19, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Good idea, Lijil. Again, I'd carry on the conversations regarding this topic on the WP:Elit talkpage, starting with a new header, something like "Notifying off-wiki mailing lists". Also, again, no rush. --Rosiestep (talk) 15:30, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I certainly think it would be an excellent idea to notify people on the mailing lists you suggest, Lijil. You might have noticed, that I have been drawing on Electronic literature in connection with articles which should have Elit on their talk pages. In doing so, I undertook a bit of non-intrusive copy editing. I'm sure it will soon be promoted to GA. As for no rush, Rosie, I certainly agree that it would be great if Deena could participate more actively in all this but on the other hand, I also think it's important to let others know what we are doing sooner rather than later. I've accidentally run into contact with contributors in related areas and I feel we need to be open about what we are doing. But let's wait a couple of weeks and see if there are any responses on the Elit talk page. There has been some interest in developments there since the beginning of February. I'm actually not at all familiar with electronic literature but thought I ought to help the project along in its early stages. You, Rosie, are certainly much more familiar with developments than I am.--Ipigott (talk) 15:52, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I hope to have the content for our off-line Wordpress site, similar to Women Do News site relatively soon. I am also going to announce our Third Thursday event on our mailing list of 40 people.

Hello, Lijil

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Klbrain, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Bergen By Byte, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

  1. Edit the page
  2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
  3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Klbrain}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

DYK for Elizabeth Storie

[edit]

On 29 May 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Elizabeth Storie, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Elizabeth Storie's doctor poured nitric acid into her mouth, causing her teeth to fall out? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Elizabeth Storie. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Elizabeth Storie), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. 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.

Hook update
Your hook reached 16,949 views (706.2 per hour), making it one of the most viewed hooks of May 2024 – nice work!
