Silvia Derbez

Thank you for your review for Silvia Derbez and noticing the date of the source/date of the possible copyvio. As a follow up, I think the source I found may be a reprint because it is in a "Cultura Archivo" (Google translation: "Culture Archive"); the same news outlet also reproduced a similar piece, from a different agency, in 2015. I have not yet checked the Wikipedia Library, but this may help track down the original version(s). If I find a version that predates the creation of the article, I will post another revdel request with updated source information. Thanks again, Beccaynr (talk) 16:22, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your diligence. Nthep (talk) 16:37, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Atlantis: The Lost Empire

Hey Nthep, hope you're doing well. I believe that the above article was mistakenly tagged for revdel a few days ago (cc @Geardona); it's backwards copying from Wikipedia and most of the overlapping text was already present in the article when it passed FAC eleven years ago. Do you mind if I reverse the revdel? DanCherek (talk) 21:44, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Not sure if it helps, but I did suspect a backwards copy, but disqualified it at some point for some reason. (Other site claims it’s from 2001)It is non compliant with the cc by sa then…Geardona (talk to me?) 21:47, 10 February 2024 (UTC)
@DanCherek no objection in the slightest Nthep (talk) 21:50, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

Copyvio revdel at Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor

Thank you for doing that revdel; however, I think you missed a few diffs that needed to go; for some of these, up until 08:05, 13 February 2024, the copyvio was still in the article, and for those after it was in the revdel request itself. BilledMammal (talk) 20:57, 13 February 2024 (UTC)

Done them. The revdel template does allow you to insert the most recent revision that needs dealing with. Nthep (talk) 21:05, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
Sorry, I should have been clearer in my comment; 08:05 got the copyvio that was in the article, but as I had included the content in the revdel request to explain what the copyvios were, that needs to go as well - which is up to 15:14, 13 February 2024.
In retrospect, that might not have been the best idea, as it meant that there was no fixed revision that needed to be removed up to - every time someone edited before the request was addressed expanded the number of edits that needed to be revdel'ed. BilledMammal (talk) 21:10, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
If you need to show the violations (and even with close paraphrasing as there was here, I'm not totally convinced of the need as Earwig will highlight it), then I'd suggest
  1. take the content out of the article
  2. add the revdel template
  3. put any explanation on the talk page
  4. add a separate revdel on the talk page, if needed.

Questions

Hello, how are you doing?....pls how long does it takes a new page before they are reviewed or approved finally on Wikipedia. Jutos222 (talk) 20:19, 12 February 2024 (UTC)

@Jutos222 presumably, you're referring to User:Jutos222/sandbox. Once submitted for review, it can be from days to several weeks before a review is completed the current backlog is 6 weeks. To submit your sandbox for review, you need to add {{subst:submit}} to the top of the page - including the double curly brackets. Nthep (talk) 20:52, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
@Nthep I created a page Fisayomi Abebi recently and it was published. Am asking when it will be reviewed and approved. Jutos222 (talk) 21:02, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
@Jutos222 If it's in the main article space that it doesn't need any approval. Nor will it necessarily be reviewed. Anything can happen to it in the future but for now, it looks like you have your first article, congratulations. Nthep (talk) 22:01, 12 February 2024 (UTC)
@Nthep When will the page be indexed on Google and other search engines. Jutos222 (talk) 06:02, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
@Jutos222 It won't get indexed for 90 days. Nthep (talk) 07:56, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
Thank so much @Nthep for answering my questions. Jutos222 (talk) 10:50, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
@Nthepis it possible to index a new wikipedia page on Google some days after publishing, without waiting for 90 days. Jutos222 (talk) 18:11, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
yes, if it goes through Wikipedia:New pages patrol sooner than the 90 days. But there is no guarantee that anyone who does NPP will get to it in time. Nthep (talk) 18:43, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
@Nthep The page I just created I notice that few autopatrollers, new page viewers, back loggers, pending change reviewers have check through it and make necessary changes.....and none of them is coming again... So what can still be delaying the article from being indexed on search engines? Jutos222 (talk) 19:19, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
@Jutos222 I don't see that it has been patrolled, there's no log entry for it. Nthep (talk) 21:03, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
Jutos222 (talk) 22:05, 13 February 2024 (UTC)
@Nthep is there anything you can do as an autopatroller officer to aid the patrol process quickly. Jutos222 (talk) 01:28, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
Sorry, but I don't do NPP. Nthep (talk) 10:44, 14 February 2024 (UTC)

Draft:David Petersen (American author)

Cheers mate, I just figured that the AFCH-script assisted talk page message has been wrongfully placed on your talk page; I reckon you've submitted the draft by fixing it, and this is why I accidentally posted that talk page message. Anyways, Best regards, --Johannes (Talk) (Contribs) (Articles) 22:40, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

done it myself. Nthep (talk) 22:47, 23 February 2024 (UTC)

A tip

If you are submitting a draft on behalf of another editor there's a couple ways to do it so it is not under your name. The easiest is {{subst:submit|User name}} or if you use the submit button, after submitting change the User parameter from your name to the other editor's name (u=xxxx).
