editing my userspace

[edit]

I appreciate the help you provided, even if I don’t remember where u came from - but please don’t change the structure I have it as, such as moving the infobox template and capitalizing the headings. I understand why u did and I’m not trying to be mean or assume bad faith. this is also against WP:NOBAN. — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 23:00, 15 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Well I came from Wikipedia Help desk. You said "i have a problem with {{userboxside}}" and also added "feel free to edit the page". So, I edited the page.
I am sorry if I messed up. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 01:58, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
I capitalized the heading because it felt a bit weird. I didn't know that it was on purpose. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 02:01, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Sorry, I guess I tried to improve the wrong infobox. No wonder, you got confused. I did mess up. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 03:35, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
oh. i linked which page i wanted help with, but maybe u didn’t see that. maybe i should’ve put it in the comment itself rather than the title.
thats on me as well a bit, since im autistic. that may make me say or put things in an unconventional way. i was making sure u knew the guidelines, but it appears it was just a misunderstanding. that’s goofy.
no bad blood at all! 😁 — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 05:45, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Nope, It's my fault. I didn't see the link. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 06:16, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
I’m not the best person to help with this specific userbox. Also, just a note that some of the wording on your page may come across as offensive to others, so you might want to review it in line with Wikipedia’s guidelines on user pages. Another editor at the Help Desk should be able to assist further. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 03:48, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
no, no you didn’t mess up! i wouldn’t put it like that.
which sentence(s) makes u feel that way? — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 05:38, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Your references. You wrote
  1. Christianity is the biggest religion in the world, with over 2B adherents. alongside Islam, they both make up of the entire world’s stupidity."
(You should know that this statement hurts almost billions of people)
Btw are you anti-communist or anti-capitalist. you wrote both lol TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 06:19, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
well, that’s what i believe but i hid it.
im both anti-communist and anti-capitalist. — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 03:12, 18 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
I would advice that it would be great if you removed Anti-Islam, Anti-Christian and Anti-Judaism from your infobox :religious views. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 06:23, 16 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Tonkarooson I'm inclined to agree here (I spotted this discussion when I happened to pop in to TGE's talk page.) Wikipedia is not a soapbox for anybody's political or religious ideologies; and we're all really better off if we don't talk about such things at all. There is no need for any of us to know where you stand on such issues. We're all here to build an encyclopedia, which by its very nature requires we leave our ideologies and biases at the door (as much as such a thing is possible). It's an "I [won't] show you mine if you [won't] show me yours" sort of thing. (This obviously doesn't apply to your statement of support for queer rights; human rights aren't, or rather shouldn't be, a political issue.) Athanelar (talk) 17:02, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
ok that’s fine. there’s also WP:UPYES. is the stuff on my main userspace fine?
i want to keep it but i’ll hide it. — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 03:02, 18 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
More relevant is WP:UPNOT which says there is broad agreement that you may not include in your user space material that is likely... to give widespread offense which stating that something like 4 billion people "make up the entire world's stupidity" certainly is (even if, as I have a hunch is the case, Wikipedia's editor-base generally trends toward atheism)
I would also say you're leaning a bit towards excessive personal information unrelated to Wikipedia per WP:USERBIO. I'm not going to unilaterally tell you you should trim any of it, but I would just like to gently point you in the direction of WP:NOTSOCIALMEDIA; user pages... should be used primarily to present information relevant to work on the encyclopedia. Limited autobiographical information is allowed, but user pages do not serve as personal webpages,
Like a lot of younger queer editors I've seen around, you seem to be mostly using your userpage like you would use a Carrd link in your twitter bio. This is appropriate to some extent (we definitely need to know your preferred pronouns so we can interact with you respectfully, of course) but things like your eye colour and a list of philosophies you subscribe to are leaning toward being out of scope. There's nothing specific I could tell you to remove in order to fix it, because it's more of an evident philosophical approach to the way you're approaching the concept of a userpage. Athanelar (talk) 12:45, 18 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
yes, of course. I apologize for this. I’ll work on it now. — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 22:45, 19 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
wait. lemme just make sure here. which should i exactly get rid of? i think it’ll be the religious part, right? — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 22:47, 19 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Like I said, There's nothing specific I could tell you to remove in order to fix it, because it's more of an evident philosophical approach to the way you're approaching the concept of a userpage. I don't think it's as simple as 'remove X and Y and it'll be better,' that's why I just wanted to give you some general pointers as to what the purpose of a userpage here is supposed to be. Athanelar (talk) 23:09, 19 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
i read the project page before.
👍 — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 01:24, 20 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
first of all, i’m not trying to offend anyone - attack the argument, not the person.
i didnt exactly think wp:soap applied there but i guess it does. i kept it so i can put it somewhere else. until then, i’ll fully remove it. i’d rather not make it a big deal. i messed up, i apologize for that, i just wanted to share my opinions. — Aurora :3 • (📭|edits) 03:17, 18 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

On sockpuppets

[edit]

Please don't announce to users that they've been reported to WP:SPI. There's no need for them to know. If the check comes out positive, then they get blocked as a sock and that's done; if the check comes out negative, then they never know they were under suspicion. In the best case scenario where the user is innocent, then you'll distress them by implying they're in some kind of trouble. If the user is guilty, then you might let them know someone is 'on their scent' and prompt them to abandon the account and try evading their block with other accounts (which a checkuser should be able to check anyway, but in any case there's no reason to tip them off.)

There is a reason why SPI does not mandate that we inform people they've been reported, unlike ANI. There's generally no need, nor nothing to be gained, from users 'responding' on their SPI. Athanelar (talk) 16:57, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

I am sorry, I was just trying to help, but I shouldn’t have said that directly. I'll handle it properly next time TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 17:04, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Don't worry about it, I totally understand, I just wanted to make you aware for the future! You might want to read the relevant essays WP:BEANS and WP:DENY, which are both about limiting the kinds of information or interaction we have with [potentially] problematic editors. Athanelar (talk) 17:06, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply
Well, I am new to discussions other than WP:Teahouse, So i kinda messed up. btw, I'll make sure that I'll read the links you posted. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 17:09, 17 April 2026 (UTC)Reply

Reviving of Deaflympics WikiProject

[edit]

Hi and I am so sorry for the late response with regards to your query on Deaflympics. I regret to inform you that I am not much active in Wikipedia these days and I am busy with the work commitments. I am also facing indefinite ban from editing Wikipedia as well since February 2025. I have decided to shift my focus into other stuff. I did have a passion and vision on creating as many Wikipedia articles related to Deaflympics as I realised that the coverage on Deaflympic athletes in Wikipedia was comparatively lesser than the coverage about Olympic and Paralympic athletes. I made the initiative on my own to contribute from my end to write up articles related to Deaflympics. My interest in Deaflympics began in 2017 and I had created over 100 biographical articles about Deaflympic athletes. Unfortunately, there is a lack of awareness on Deaflympics at a broader level due to lack of interest among common audience and also due to lack of broadcasting rights on Deaflympics.

One thing I can tell you that I remember on how hard it was to convince the fellow Wikipedia editors in order push some high profile Deaflympic events on the front cover page of Wikipedia's ITN section. My nominations on both 2019 Winter Deaflympics and 2025 Summer Deaflympics are documentary proof for that. If you can look at the comments under my failed ITN nominations under Wikipedia:In_the_news/Candidates/December_2019#(Closed)_2019_Winter_Deaflympics and Wikipedia:In_the_news/Candidates/November_2025#2025_Summer_Deaflympics, you can understand how people were not much bothered to search about or give prominence for these kind of multi-sport events. I also understood that many Wikipedians did not have much idea about what Deaflympics really was and the lack of media coverage on Deaflympics also played a pivotal role. I am glad that at least you are trying to take up this stiff challenge and hope you can find success. Don't give up hope on this and I hope that I can try to support you in this despite my current editing restrictions. I would love to once again contribute to Wikipedia editing, but only time will tell. Abishe (talk) 08:02, 3 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Well, I noticed it too. So, I also stopped giving importance to the WikiProject. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 08:22, 3 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

On 14 May 2026, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Sheep farming in Ukraine, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that sheep farming in Ukraine declined from 6.4 million sheep in 1938 to about 0.7 million in the early 21st century? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Sheep farming in Ukraine. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Sheep farming in Ukraine), 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 nominate it.

And because of this, there is also no evidence at all that the subject is in any way notable. For these reasons, the article is emphatically not ready to be published.
New Page Patrol is an important job and comes with great responsibility. It is the last line of defence, before a new article gets released to public consumption (and also becomes available to search engines). Once NPP has signed off an article, no other quality control is applied. Therefore NPP should only approve articles that are ready to be approved. By clicking on the review button, that is you saying this article is 'good to go', and that removes it from the NPP feed so no other reviewer will look at it. I only happened to catch this one, because that page was already on my watch list because of some previous issues I've been dealing with.
Sorry, I'm not having a go at you, I'm genuinely trying to help. It's really great that you've volunteered to work on NPP, we sure need help there (!), but please be careful with the reviewer permission, it is a powerful one. Only approve articles that you really mean to approve, and if you're not sure about anything, don't hesitate to ask (either me or any other admin or NPP'er).
Happy edi... I mean, reviewing! :) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:26, 5 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
Okay, I'll be really careful next time. tbh I though the review button was just like "I saw it". I am really sorry. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 14:31, 5 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
No problem, I'm sure you didn't do it on purpose. We all make mistakes (I sure do!), but that's great because that's how we learn. Like now you learned that the check button means 'reviewed', and I learned that the hover text displayed over that button perhaps needs to be clearer. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:37, 5 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
btw I really have a doubt. Like what is that gray box with a heart a delete button, etc beside my screen when I review an article. And how to use it. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 14:40, 5 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
That is the Page Curation toolbar, which becomes available to you when you get the NPP permission, see Page Curation/Help which tells you in broad terms how to use it. Or if you want to learn more thoroughly (highly recommended!), you can go to New pages patrol/School and sign up for some 1:1 training. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:48, 5 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. I am currently using the hostel Wi-Fi, I don't understand why I can't edit when I am using my hostel Wi-Fi, but I can edit normally when I am using mobile data. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 11:22, 12 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Decline reason:

You don't give the IP address involved, but the hostel is probably using a webhost or proxy for its internet access. It is not permitted to edit via a webhost/proxy(though merely reading Wikipedia is not affected). You'll need to keep using your mobile data to edit. 331dot (talk) 15:02, 12 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Articles for Creation backlog drive

[edit]

Hello TheGreatEditor024:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:38, 19 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Good article nominations RfC

[edit]

Hi TheGreatEditor024,

There is an ongoing Request for Comment (RfC) at Wikipedia:Good article nominations/August 2026 RfC, which you may be interested in because in the past year, you have nominated or reviewed more than one good article nomination. This message has also been sent to all subscribers to the Good Article Gazette. The RfC contains many proposals (33 at the time of writing), which are split into the following categories: nominators, reviewers, reviews, volunteer roles, reviewing initiatives, and others. However, you are more than welcome to add any proposals of your own that you wish to put to the community.

By the end of September, all the proposals will have been closed by an uninvolved editor, either as a consensus for one of the options or with no consensus. At this point, editors will be invited again to develop these proposals into coherent policy and implement them.

Thank you for your contributions to the good articles project, and I look forward to your input! (in solidarity), JacobTheRox(talk|contributions) 16:03, 11 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone! signed, Rosguill talk 19:00, 11 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

WP:NPPHOUR

[edit]

Hello. Please wait at least an hour after the last edit on a page to draftify it, as per WP:NPPHOUR. However, Suzanne M. McEnroe should not have been draftified anyways, since the subject meets WP:NACADEMIC by being a member of multiple scholarly societies and the recipient of a prestigious academic award for her work. Thank you, JTtheOG (talk) 23:01, 11 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

I agree that Suzanne meets WP:NACADEMIC, after all, she won the William Gilbert Award. But the creator of the article has not provided sources to prove her notability for inclusion to mainspace. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 08:19, 12 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
I guess I can improve the article a bit to help the creator by adding more sources. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 08:22, 12 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
WP:NPPHOUR should have been followed at Draft:Sony Vizha as well. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 12:38, 17 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
@MPGuy2824, It didn't even have a single citation. So, I moved it to draftspace so that the creator can improve their draft for future inclusion to Wikipedia. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 12:40, 17 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
That doesn't matter since it was in the first hour of creation. Not following that standard is considered as being WP:BITEY. If you notice in the NPP Feed (Special:NewPagesFeed) too there is a warning label for every page created in the last hour ("This page was only created X minutes ago. Please don't rush to tag pages at the front of the queue. The author may still be working on it.") Such things are looked at when NPR rights come up for renewing. In fact, during your trial period I suggest that you not look at such new articles at all. Happy reviewing! -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:17, 18 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
Okay, Thank you for explaining it. Well, I believed that moving an article to draftspace helps the creator to improve the article without posting it on the mainspace. I will be careful next time. TheGreatEditor024 (talk) 08:41, 18 August 2026 (UTC)Reply

Your submission at Articles for creation: Bimyō (August 17)

Draft declined
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia. Your draft submission to Articles for creation has been reviewed but not accepted at this time.
Feedback
The reviewer, Dafootballguy, left the following feedback:
This draft is not written from a neutral point of view. Wikipedia articles must be written neutrally in a formal, impersonal, and dispassionate way. They should not read like a blog post, advertisement, or fan page. Rewrite the draft to remove: Instead, only summarize in your own words a range of independent, reliable, published sources that discuss the subject.

Next steps

  • Edit Draft:Bimyō to address the points above, making sure to publish any changes.
  • When you are ready to resubmit your draft for review, click the Resubmit button.
  • If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it may be deleted.
