You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:
This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 206.189.32.0/20 has been blocked by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 07:33, 6 August 2027. Your current IP address is 206.189.44.186.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

== ''Quaker Experiences in International Conciliation'' ==

I hope you don't mind me following up [[Wikipedia:WikiProject_Resource_Exchange/Resource_Request/Archive_98#Quaker_Experiences_in_International_Conciliation|my recent WP:RX request]], whicn you were able to fulfil, here. I've found the chapter from Yarrow's ''Quaker Experiences in International Conciliation'' exceptionally useful for the rewrite of [[Adam Curle]] I'm [[User:Arms & Hearts/Adam Curle|working on]], but have belatedly realised I also need to look at Yarrow's third chapter, "The India–Pakistan War of 1965" (pp. 144–178). I don't suppose you could send that chapter over as well? Wishing you a very pleasant remainder of the festive season and a happy new year, &ndash;&nbsp;[[User:Arms & Hearts|Arms & Hearts]] ([[User talk:Arms & Hearts|talk]]) 17:47, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Wow, Eddie, that is just awesome !!!  Until [[User:ImaginesTigers]] came along, I just didn't know how to help.  As I mentioned early on in the peer review, FAC has lost all of its literary people (and [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia_talk:Featured_article_candidates&diff=997631745&oldid=997625234 they aren't likely to come back considering the current environment]), and it appears that I sent the Tiger to you just at the right time, and they addressed precisely the things that were needed, so big shout out and welcome to them, along with a congrats to you !

::: It was a good article! Eddie did a great job on it. All the major issues, to me, were ironed out in the peer review (I had a look back) and the earlier comments. The prose was serviceable enough that only some little changes were necessary to bring it up to "engaging"; it was already quite professional. Great work Eddie, and all who helped you, too.

:Just to chime in: the DYK led me to the page. Absolutely enlightening on an aspect of managing the consequences of combat.

== Importance of coverage ==
Hello Eddie! I'll like you to please bother clearing a doubt of mine relating to the notability of the subject of an article. 

I recently nominated [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deviprasad Dwivedi|Deviprasad Dwivedi]] for deletion. Although i believe that <s>[[Padma Shri]]</s> [[Padma Bhushan]] is not a significant award on an international level, lets, for an instance, consider it a major award that is talked about on [[WP:ANYBIO]]. Then will the subject still be considered notable and its article be kept even if he has not received even minimal coverage? To be more straight-forward, does passing [[WP:ANYBIO]] overrule failing [[WP:SIGCOV]]? 

My thoughts is that if the subject is a living person then passing [[WP:SIGCOV]] is must. Please have your say, if you don't mind, in the deletion discussion as well. Kindly [[User:Pesticide1110|<b style="color:NavyBlue">Pesticide<span style="color:orange">1110</span></b>]] <sup>[[User talk:Pesticide1110|<i style="color:Teal">Lets wrestle!</i>]]</sup> 17:32, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
: You're likely to get people with varying opinions on this, so note that this is just my opinion and not necessarily correct: ANYBIO is a curious guideline in many respects and you have to exercise common sense when interpreting it: for instance, what is a "dictionary of national biography or similar publication"? Do we consider an entry in the likes of [[The National Cyclopaedia of American Biography]] (which was compiled by getting the subjects to fill out questionnaires) enough? What about in a highly specialized encyclopedia? (my answer to those last two questions would be "no" and "yes", respectively){{pb}} Speaking specifically to ANYBIO#1, let me use an example I'm familiar with: Medal of honor recipients in the American Civil War. Is the MOH the US Armed Services highest award? yes. Is a Medal of Honor inherently enough for a stand-alone article? I, and many others as well, would argue: not without coverage to back it up. Many medals of honor were awarded for (comparatively) trivial things in the ACW, and there are more than a few cases where there just isn't enough verifiable information to write an article with. {{pb}} ANYBIO doesn't, by itself, overrule a blatant failure of GNG -- in fact the section it's in specifically says {{tq|meeting one or more [of the additional criteria] does ''not'' guarantee that a subject should be included.}} However, having a major award does make the existence of GNG-meeting coverage significantly more likely, particularly for this case, where I'm not familiar enough with the award and the region to say for sure that coverage does not exist in a different language. And, as you note, what a "well known and significant honor" is is subjective and there's not a clear consensus on what that means. Hopefully that's of some help?

==[[John and William Merfold]]==
Hi Eddie891, I have done what I can with the article, my apologies for not getting back to it sooner (see [[Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Thomas Erpingham/archive1|here]] for the reason for the delay). Looking at the Merfold article, I think it has real problems being taken further and may need failing; most of the text is not about the brothers, whose only claim to notability seems to be that they spoke out against their king in public a few times—almost nothing else can be said about them. Most of the text in the article could probably be taken out as being off-topic. Can you ping me back with your thoughts?

: {{u|Amitchell125}}, I'm afraid that I've come to a similar conclusion. There's also an unresolved citation needed tag, and this review has dragged out for far too long. I think a fail may be in order, though I hate to say fail-- because certainly good work has been done here and the article isn't in ''bad'' shape, but it just isn't a good article.

:: Personally, I'm walking away from it. Someone with better access to local history resources relating to the south of England needs to have a go at researching the Merfolds and their fate, although there may never be enough material out there to do the job.

== RSN / RfC: Sherdog.com Closure Mess ==

Hello, an uninvolved editor named Buidhe closed [[Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_318#RfC:_Sherdog.com]] some time ago with the consensus for '''option 2''' but somehow he used the explanation for '''option 3''' in this [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_318&diff=991141804&oldid=990162704|diff]. That caused some confusion and then some editors in favour of option 1 complained about it here at [[User_talk:Buidhe/Archive_12#RFC_closure]]. Then Buidhe changed his closure 2 weeks later in this [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard/Archive_318&diff=993463286&oldid=991141804|diff], again, and disregarded votes. He gave the explanation for why he changed the closure and disregarded votes 2 weeks later here at the complaint section [[User_talk:Buidhe/Archive_12#RFC_closure]] again. Apperantly he thought 5 options were confusing for editors who voted in the RfC and other editors perhaps voted for wrong options without knowing. So he didn't come to any straightforward conclusion and in the end the closure has become a mess that didn't close anything or reflect the consensus outcome of the RfC (or anything at all for one option or the other) although it was a pretty easy and short one with a rather clear rough consensus.

It would be far better if an experienced administrator like you closed the RfC once and for all, and erase this mess the closing editor caused because it affects a lot of articles in the Wiki and cause edit wars that rely on that RfC.

Any closure with regard to the nonstandard options risks confusing those who are looking at the closure but don't realize that the options are different than those usually used.

== building preps ==

Hey, Eddie! I'd be happy to help you through building your first prep, if you like! Building preps is really good experience for admins who want to work at DYK or ERRORs. It is a bit daunting at first, but once you've done a few you see that it's really just a puzzle you're putting together, and it's actually quite fun.  [[User:Valereee|—valereee]] ([[User talk:Valereee|talk]]) 13:43, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
:{{u|Valereee}} Thanks for the offer! I'd appreciate any advice you may have on getting started. Cheers, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 15:04, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
::Sure! You've got lots of experience nomming/reviewing. The person building the prep is trying to build a balanced prep, which means no more than 4 US hooks (and preferably 2-3 if we aren't currently overwhelmed with US hooks), generally no more than one from any other country, 4 bios/4 non bios (in alternating order), ideally no more than 1 on any subject if possible -- music, military, biology, whatever. You also need to pay attention to length, as if all the hooks are short or all are long, the MP will have an awkward blank space. And ideally each set alternates starting with a bio/non-bio in the image slot, so that if Prep 1 had a bio, Prep 2 gets a non-bio. And of course the final hook is the "quirky" slot. 
::The first thing to do is check to see if there are any special occasion requests for the date (when we're in two-a-days, take into account whether there are time zones where that hook wants to be in the daytime; for instance, a hook mostly of interest to the US should run during US daytime) and slot those in (or reserve space for them if the hook is still being reviewed.) 
::Most prep builders will attempt to build an entire prep, although sometimes you'll get stuck and leave a slot open, hoping someone else will fill it or something good for that slot will be reviewed by then. Most prep builders start with the image slot. For each slot, you scan the list of approved noms (generally top to bottom, as we want to get those older ones slotted), looking for something that works in your prep. When you find one, you do a review; how complete it needs to be is something you'll pick up as you become experienced. When I see that both the nom and the reviewer are highly experienced at DYK and the article is GA, I know all I need to do is check to make sure the hook is cited to the sentence. When I see that both the nom and the reviewer are inexperienced at DYK, I know I'm going to need to do a full review. Sometimes I need to ask for another alt or for corrections to be made before I can move. Once you've reviewed, you move the hook to the prep, then start again. 
::The main guidelines and instructions are at [[Template:Did_you_know/Queue#Instructions_on_how_to_promote_a_hook]].
::Let me know when you start building and I'll watch your progress. As you can see from the above, it's a lot of stuff to consider. Prep building is an art, and it takes some time to learn how to do it well. But if puzzles appeal to you, you may find you really like it. [[User:Valereee|—valereee]] ([[User talk:Valereee|talk]]) 16:33, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
::: {{u|Valereee}}, Thank you! how does something like what I've put together at [[Template:Did you know/Preparation area 7]] look? I removed c. 1510 from the first hook, and am not sure that "attempted buyer" is really a valid phrasing. I'm also not sure what to put as a 'quirky' hook-- would something like [[Template:Did you know nominations/Crowd Cow]] work? And of course, if this is the stuff I noticed, I'm sure that there is more I missed. Let me know what's what, please. Cheers, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 21:24, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
::::Hey, Eddie! Yes, I think Crowd Cow could work as a quirky. I think you did a good job balancing the hooks in general, although to me that looks like an extremely western set -- which, as we're enwiki, sometimes is what we have available to us -- but it's also very easy for an unconscious bias to creep in! You might look at whether or not there's an item or two from Asia/Africa/South America that you could swap in. [[User:Valereee|—valereee]] ([[User talk:Valereee|talk]]) 21:37, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
:::::Oh, and I forgot to mention -- when you're building a prep, always look for hooks by other prep builders, as prep builders cannot promote their own hooks or ones they've reviewed, and some of prep builders are fairly prolific nominators and reviewers. Other prep builders will do the same for you, as you can't promote hooks you've already touched. As an admin, you can move to queue a prep that includes a hook you nom/reviewed, but you shouldn't move a prep you were the primary builder of. [[User:Valereee|—valereee]] ([[User talk:Valereee|talk]]) 21:47, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
::::: {{u|Valereee}} you're definitely right. I considered [[Template:Did you know nominations/Manek Premchand]], but there's already one hook focusing on a film so I thought it would be too much. Many of the non-Western hooks are images or have unresolved issues. . . I swapped a south American hook in and I can use  [[Template:Did you know nominations/Zéna M’Déré]] in as the quirky one instead. What do you think about that? [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 22:04, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
::::::lol I love Zena M'Dere as a quirky! Yes, both those changes are great! :) And yes, sometimes it's not easy to balance by western/other areas, we can only use what people submit to us! :) [[User:Valereee|—valereee]] ([[User talk:Valereee|talk]]) 22:49, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
:::::::{{u|Valereee}} If someone is looking for a non-US bio to promote, there is [[Template:Did you know nominations/Agitu Ideo Gudeta]]. On January 17, Yoninah said on my talk page to wait for at least another week of the article being stable. [[User:SL93|SL93]] ([[User talk:SL93|talk]]) 01:11, 25 January 2021 (UTC)

== War identification? ==

You're a military history person, as I recall—could you or one of your watchers help me figure out which war is referred to in the following (original text [https://books.google.com/books?id=DWIwAQAAMAAJ&pg=PA321 here]). I'm trying to reconstruct the history of a 19th-century mission over at [[Draft:Seneca mission]]. (Text of the draft is a total mess atm, so don't worry if it makes no sense.)
:During the 7 first years of Mr. Hyde's residence among the Indians [beginning, I assume, in 1821], he seemed to labor almost in vain. He suffered much from ill health, was entirely unacquainted with the language, and labored under many disadvantages from its acquisition. The war, which commenced soon after his arrival, greatly impeded the prosperity of the mission.
This is in upstate New York, near Buffalo. Am I just gobsmackingly ignorant? I can't think of a war that would have been happening in the early 1820s in that area, and neither [[History of New York (state)]] nor [[Military history of the United States]] is giving me much of a clue. Probably my paltry history education talking; any hints appreciated.

: {{u|AleatoryPonderings}} as you may or may not be aware, I live in upstate new york (near [[Syracuse, New York]], as it happens) so if you need help tracking down sources for this article,  I can probably be of assistance. I think you're looking for the [[War of 1812]] which had major influence and impacts in the region, notably after the attempted Invasion of Canada. Your source says {{tq|In 1811, Rev. John Alexander and Mr. Jabez B. Hyde were sent to this tribe [...] During the first 7 years of Mr. Hyde's residence among the Indians, [...] The war, which commenced soon after his arrival, greatly impeded the prosperity of the mission.}} 1812 -- soon after 1811. Let me know if I missed something entirely or can be of any more assistance.

::Ahh, thanks. I guess I must have had the dates confused; the War of 1812 certainly makes sense. And yes, any/all assistance welcome!

== Newspapers.com and public domain ==

At long last, I've finally gotten access to Newspapers.com via the WP Library, and I'm already finding great stuff. As I recall, you have Newspapers.com access too and I wondered if I could get your opinion on a copyright question. 

One great thing I've found is a good quality image of [[William Edgar Easton]] on [https://newspapers.com/image/692884938/ this page] from a 1915 issue of the ''[[California Eagle]]''. Since it was published in the US in 1915, it's in the public domain. But I didn't know if I could just go ahead and clip the image for use on the article, since I don't want me or the WP Library to get in trouble with Newspapers.com if they claim some unusual copyright status for the works on their platform. (For instance, "We OCRed it and scanned it, so we have copyright in the modified files on this website, hence they're not in the public domain"). So I wondered: have you used Newspapers.com for public domain content like this? [[User:AleatoryPonderings|AleatoryPonderings]] ([[User talk:AleatoryPonderings|'''???''']]) ([[Special:Contributions/AleatoryPonderings|'''!!!''']]) 21:45, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
: {{u|AleatoryPonderings}}: Yay, newspapers.com access! An absolutely vital source, I've found. This is an interesting question and one I'm not quite sure on-- check out ancestry.com (newspapers.com's parent) 's terms of use: [https://www.ancestry.com/cs/legal/termsandconditions] {{tq| all Ancestry Content is owned by or licensed to us and may be used only in accordance with these Terms, including Ancestry Content that may be in the public domain (“Public Domain Content”). You agree: To use the Ancestry Content only as necessary for your personal use of the Services or your professional family history research; To download the Ancestry Content only as search results relevant to such research or where expressly permitted by Ancestry; To keep all copyright and other proprietary notices on any Ancestry Content you download or print; Not to distribute, republish, or sell significant portions of any Ancestry Content; and, To contact us to obtain our written permission if you want to use more than a small portion of individual photos and documents that are Public Domain Content.}} I think this may fall under 'distribute significant portions' but am not well-versed in the area. It may be worth asking at [[WP:MCQ]] for a more qualified opinion. Sorry to not be of more help and best wishes, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 22:00, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
::Very helpful, thanks. I assumed there'd be something of this nature. Not clear if that language is legally enforceable, but certainly gives me pause. And yes, it's truly amazing what one can find on the site; a shame it's not more widely available for researchers. [[User:AleatoryPonderings|AleatoryPonderings]] ([[User talk:AleatoryPonderings|'''???''']]) ([[Special:Contributions/AleatoryPonderings|'''!!!''']]) 22:11, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
::: {{u|AleatoryPonderings}} I've just been informed on the [[WP:DISCORD]] by minds smarter than mine that these terms of service are "immoral" (I agree) and commons doesn't care about anything other than the fact that the images are public domain -- they can't be protected by copyright. So I think it may be beneficial for you to look around for someone better versed in the area than me for a complete answer.{{pb}} on an unrelated note, thanks for the typo fix-- I didn't intend to write an article about [[Walt Whitman and Abraham Lincoln|a pot and a politician]] :P Cheers, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 01:01, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

== Centering ==

Please don't use {{tag|center}}. This hasn't been valid HTML since the 1990s.  Most cases of centering (or centring, if you prefer) can be done with {{tlx|center}} AKA {{tlx|centre}}, including the centered note at the bottom of your "Good article drive notice" delivered by bot recently, and probably also all the centering instances on this talk page and your user page.  Using "dead" markup impedes our migration to HTML 5.  For more information on that, and to get involved, see [[WP:LINT]] and [[WP:HTML5]] (the latter of which also has advice on more complicated centering tasks, in a section about that). <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 03:40, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
: OK, {{u|SMcCandlish}}, let's try this again: 1) Thanks for bringing this to my attention, I wasn't aware. 2) I've read through the pages you link and I get that it shouldn't be used, will make a mental note to avoid it. 3) I don't actually understand why it's 'wrong': It works, so why can't it be used? 4) I also don't get why we should care about a migration to HTML 5 and have no interest in getting involved, but thanks for the offer, I guess. Cheers and best wishes, [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 18:32, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
::It "works" in the sense that it visually forces content to be centered, in browsers that still elect to support deprecated elements, but this cannot be guaranteed, especially for [[WP:REUSE]] purposes; a strict parser will either choke on it or ignore it, and either way it will not have the desired effect.  And it doesn't "work", in the sense that pages with {{tag|center}} in them fail to validate as HTML, which can have undesirable secondary effects, like forcing various browsers into "quirks mode", in which they behave like old browsers instead of modern ones. This isn't really the place for a big spiel about using standards-compliant code. [[WP:HTML5]] gets into it a little, and it relates to [[Semantic HTML]], [[Semantic Web]], [[Web 2.0]], code portability and manipulability with XML tools, etc.  Our own internal tools can also become simpler if the code is standardized.<p>By way of a more human analogy, most people (native speakers, anyway) will know what you mean if you say "thou" or "speaketh", but this obsolete English, and there generally isn't a reason to do it.  People who are using the CSS and JS we've set up for detecting and fixing bad markup will see instances of {{tag|center}} stick out like a sore thumb (as red, well pink, blocks). Kind of like how someone walking around talking Elizabethan all the time will grate on people. Heh. <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 13:29, 23 February 2021 (UTC)</p><p>PS: I saw the original version of your response; to address the embedded question in it, the issue is that {{tag|center}} isn't valid HTML. It's been deprecated for 20-odd years, in favor of using CSS for centering. In this respect it's like {{tag|font}} and several other old obsolete HTML elements that only served a presentational not semantic purpose.  Most browsers are written to be able to still understand the old markup, but that won't be true of more specialized parsers, and may not be true of general-use browsers forever.  Unfortunately, the CSS for doing centering is a butt-pain, so it's much, much easier to do it with {{tlx|center}} (which is shorter than {{tag|center}} anyway). <span style="white-space:nowrap;font-family:'Trebuchet MS'"> — [[User:SMcCandlish|'''SMcCandlish''']] [[User talk:SMcCandlish|☏]] [[Special:Contributions/SMcCandlish|¢]] 😼 </span> 13:36, 23 February 2021 (UTC)</p>
:::{{u|SMcCandlish}},  Thanks so much for the response! It actually makes sense to me now&mdash; the analogy was very helpful. I'll take care to use {{tl|center}} when centering things.

== WikiCup 2021 March newsletter ==

Round 1 of the competition has finished; it was a high-scoring round with 21 contestants scoring more than 100 points.  Everyone with a positive score moves on to Round 2, with 55 contestants qualifying. You will need to finish among the top thirty-two contestants in Round 2 if you are to qualify for Round 3. Our top scorers in Round 1 were:   

*{{flagicon|New York (state)}} [[User:Epicgenius|Epicgenius]] led the field with a featured article, nine good articles and an assortment of other submissions, specialising on buildings and locations in New York, for a total of 945 points.
*{{flagicon|Republic of Venice|wartime}} [[User:Bloom6132|Bloom6132]] was close behind with 896 points, largely gained from 71 "In the news" items, mostly recent deaths.
*{{flagicon|Scotland}} [[User:ImaginesTigers|ImaginesTigers]], who has been editing Wikipedia for less than a year, was in third place with 711 points, much helped by bringing [[League of Legends]] to featured article status, exemplifying how bonus points can boost a contestant's score.
*{{flagicon|Rwanda}} [[User:Amakuru|Amakuru]] came next with 708 points, [[Kigali]] being another featured article that scored maximum bonus points.
*[[File:Flag of the United Nations.svg|22px]] [[User:Ktin|Ktin]], new to the WikiCup, was in fifth place with 523 points, garnered from 15 DYKs and 34 "In the news" items.
*{{flagicon|Botswana}} [[User:The Rambling Man|The Rambling Man]] scored 511 points, many from featured article candidate reviews and from football related DYKs.
*[[File:Standard of Oliver Cromwell (1653–1659).svg|22px]] [[User:Gog the Mild|Gog the Mild]], last year's runner-up, came next with 498 points, from a featured article and numerous featured article candidate reviews.
*[[File:Bennington Flag.svg|22px]] [[User:Hog Farm|Hog Farm]], at 452, scored for a featured article, four good articles and a number of reviews.
*{{flagicon|United States}} [[User:Le Panini|Le Panini]], another newcomer to the WikiCup, scored 438 for a featured article and three good articles.
*{{flagicon|England}} [[User:Lee Vilenski|Lee Vilenski]], last year's champion, scored 332 points, from a featured article and various other sport-related topics.

These contestants, like all the others, now have to start again from scratch. In Round 1, contestants achieved eight featured articles, three featured lists and one featured picture, as well as around two hundred DYKs and twenty-seven ITNs. They completed 97 good article reviews, nearly double the 52 good articles they claimed. Contestants also claimed for 135 featured article and featured list candidate reviews. There is no longer a requirement to mention your WikiCup participation when undertaking these reviews. 

Remember that any content promoted after the end of Round 1 but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is a good article candidate, a featured process, or something else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews]].

If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on [[Wikipedia talk:WikiCup]], and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! <small>If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send]].</small> [[User:Sturmvogel 66|Sturmvogel 66]] ([[User talk:Sturmvogel 66|talk]]) and [[User:Cwmhiraeth|Cwmhiraeth]] ([[User talk:Cwmhiraeth|talk]]).

A tag has been placed on [[:Eurovision Song Contest 2022]] requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under [[WP:CSD#G4|section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion]], because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a [[Wikipedia:Deletion debates|deletion discussion]], at [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 May 29#Eurovision Song Contest 2022]]. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time. 

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may '''contest the nomination''' by [[:Eurovision Song Contest 2022|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:List of policies|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 {{Querylink|Special:Log|qs=type=delete&page=Eurovision+Song+Contest+2022|deleting administrator}}, or if you have already done so, you can place a request [[WP:RFUD|here]]. <!-- Template:Db-repost-notice --><!-- Template:Db-csd-notice-custom --> — [[User:Smjg|Smjg]] ([[User talk:Smjg|talk]]) 21:54, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

== AfD Close & Move of Page ==

Hi Eddie, you closed the AfD for [[Mya Thwe Thwe Khine]], I have absolutely no problem on this, of course. But with what I have an issue is indeed the final move of the page by User {{Reply to|TheAafi}} - the AfD Disc was about a WP:VICTIM Article named "The Death of..." and it is somewhat irritating that hours before closing the article is (once again) moved back to be a WP:BIO Article. Since the AfD Disc was not about a WP:BIO I need you to ask to revert this move. Thanks in advance. [[User:CommanderWaterford|CommanderWaterford]] ([[User talk:CommanderWaterford|talk]]) 23:35, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
:{{u|CommanderWaterford}}, I don't see the relation to the afd-- the article nominated, after all, was [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mya Thwe Thwe Khine|Mya Thwe Thwe Khine]]. Based on Aafi's edit summary, I don't think they would mind if it was moved back, but won't speak for them. Discussion about the proper title can take place on article talk.

::I am sorry to read this {{u|Eddie891}} because I have to disagree - since the article was after AfD Nomination directly renamed and the whole (!) AfD Discussion concentrated on the question if it is a WP:VICTIM or WP:BIO article and formally you closed a WP:BIO article because the move was shortly made before you closing it. Honestly I have to consider taking this move to ANI since the motivation for the final move is quite obvious. [[User:CommanderWaterford|CommanderWaterford]] ([[User talk:CommanderWaterford|talk]]) 23:53, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
:::{{u|CommanderWaterford}} The consensus in the AFD was not to delete the article. I'm sorry that you feel this way, but I just don't see a strong consensus one way or another as to the title. Discussion as to where it should be located can still take place at the article talk -- [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 00:42, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
::::{{u|Eddie891}}, *This [[Special:MobileDiff/1010991410|move]] by Taung Tan is definitely undiscussed. It says, Taung Tan moved page [[Mya Thwe Thwe Khine]] to "{{no redirect|Death of Mya Thwe Thwe Khine}}" – and they did it right after the AfD was initiated. Later, {{u|CommanderWaterford}} moved page [[Special:MobileDiff/1011008709|Death of Mya Thwe Thwe Khine to Mya Thwe Thwe Khine]] and Taung Tan [[Special:MobileDiff/1011010562|reverted Commander's move]] saying, {{tq|No, you have nothing permission to move this}}. In this scenario, all of these moves were done against any sort of consensus, and thus are best described as "undiscussed". The article nominated after all was Mya Thwe Thwe Khine. An editor has initiated a RM to get the article renamed. Thanks. ─ [[User:AafiOnMobile|<span style="color:SteelBlue">The Aafī on Mobile</span>]] <sup>[[User talk:AafiOnMobile|<span style="color:#80A0FF"><sup>(talk)</sup></span>]]</sup> 05:51, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

== Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bill Davey ==

I just saw the above discussion. Wouldn't a [[Mr. America (contest)]] winner be presumptively notable under [[WP:SPORTSPERSON]]?  Or am I missing something? [[User:LtPowers|Powers]] <sup><small><small>[[User talk:LtPowers|T]]</small></small></sup> 18:20, 17 March 2021 (UTC)
:Hi {{u|LtPowers}}, it depends on several things. SPORTSPERSON explicitly says the championship only means that the subject "is likely to have received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject." If we can be reasonably sure they don't have that [[WP:GNG|SIGCOV]], then deletion may be appropriate. Additionally, you get into the weeds of what a major/significant sports contest is.{{pb}}At least one participant in the discussion also cited the criteria of [[WP:NMODEL]]. Most of the participants, however, felt that the subject failed [[WP:GNG]]/[[WP:BIO]] (note the phrasing at [[WP:SNG]]: {{tq| topics which pass an SNG are presumed to merit an article, though articles which pass an SNG or the GNG '''may still be deleted''' or merged into another article, especially '''if adequate sourcing or significant coverage cannot be found'''}}(emphasis mine)).{{pb}} Regardless, [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] is determined by the [[WP:CLOSEAFD|reasonable, logical, policy-based arguments]] presented at the AFD. Admins are not expected to go looking for other arguments afaik. If you're interested in restoring the article and feel there is sufficient coverage, I'd be happy to restore it to draftspace where it can go through AFC. Not sure if this is helpful or even understandable, let me know if you want further clarification.

::Thanks for the insight. Mostly I was puzzled why no one had brought that factor up in the discussion (and perhaps concerned that no one had realized during the discussion that he had in fact won a major bodybuilding competition), and I wasn't sure where to ask short of deletion review. (I'm also a little concerned by the link removal, leaving him one of the few in the list of Mr. America winners not linked, but that's a more minor issue.)

Yeah Following the recent integration of Paramount Parks and Viacom Consumer Products under the leadership of Nickelodeon Networks president Herb Scannell, Leigh Anne Brodsky and Al Weber have been promoted to new positions, consolidating the leadership of the licensing and recreation businesses under Nickelodeon Enterprises, the ancillary business unit of Nickelodeon Networks. Brodsky has been named president, Nickelodeon and Viacom Consumer Products, and Weber has been named president, Viacom Recreation. Cyma Zarghami is the President of Viacom Inc's (VIA.A and VIA.B) Nickelodeon Networks Group, overseeing all creative and business operations for the company.

: Actually, I'm also a  little confused how someone can be depicted as being clearly 'Moorish'. I'd be inclined to fold that into the quote from the Hillwood Museum (i.e. "The Hillwood Museum describes the allegorical woman of 'Africa' as being historically depicted as "...a Moorish woman (dark-skinned Muslim from Northern Africa), partially nude...") so it's clear where the connection is coming from, but don't feel too strongly.

== Moving a draft to mainspace ==

Hello, I was wondering if you, as an administrator, could move a [[User:OakMapping/sandbox/Miloš Trifunović (politician)|userspace draft]] I created to mainspace for me? The title is protected from creation because it has been created two times before without being adequately sourced. Thanks, [[User:OakMapping|OakMapping]] ([[User talk:OakMapping|talk]]) 08:31, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
:Hi {{u|OakMapping}}, I've gone ahead and removed the protection per your request and the fact that I don't see the logs as providing a justification for [[WP:SALT|salting]]. I don't review drafts upon request, but you should feel free to submit the draft for review or move it to the mainspace yourself.

== Team KART page ==

Hi Eddie,
The wiki page of Team KART was deleted on 9th April 2021, 12:48(UTC).
This page was actually an informative page for the freshmen and sophomores of the college Indian Institute of Technology, Kharagpur. And guides over 3000 people each year to recognize the opportunities for research on the campus.
The reasons for deletion were mentioned as promotional even though we took good care of not posting any such material related to sponsorships and promotions on the page. It would be great if you could guide me to the problems on the page so that it can be restored.

== Discontent Content Issue 1 ==

{{tmbox
|type = notice
|image = none
|imageright = none
|text = {{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Veckans samarbete 2.svg|left|50px]] [[File:Accessories-text-editor.svg|right|45px]] <center><font size = 6>'''Discontent Content Issue #1'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Welcome, subscribers, to the inaugural '''Discontent Content''' newsletter! Discontent Content is a newsletter aiming to collate and improve Wikipedia articles in need of more eyes and hands to get them in shape. Its unique trimodal structure allows editors to work where they feel comfortable -- with stubs and starts needing to be brought to standard, mid-quality articles with Good or Featured potential, or quality-assessed articles needing help to maintain their status.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Nuvola apps important blue.svg|left|30px]] [[File:Nuvola apps important purple.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Category 1'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Articles in this category are those that need to be brought up to a minimum quality standard. Some will be stubs; others will be longer articles that nonetheless have significant concerns putting them far below B- or C-class adequacy.

'''This issue's Category 1 articles are:'''

#'''[[Community Outreach Academy Elementary]]''': A recent AfD survivor, this is one of those entertaining exceptions to the 'primary schools aren't notable' rule. How many primary schools do ''you'' know of that host Cossack militias and are endorsed by foreign embassies? Sadly, the article itself is far from representative of the school's wealth of eccentric coverage. [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Community Outreach Academy Elementary|The AfD]] may provide a jumping-off point for an interested writer to cover a 'run-of-the-mill' topic that's anything but.
#'''[[Holy Diver (song)]]''': One of the signatures of metal legend [[Ronnie James Dio]], this start-class article barely touches on almost forty years of history, analysis, and veneration. With literally hundreds of interviews, pages upon pages of Google Books hits, and more than a few cover versions, there's enough sourcing to cover an article many times this one's size and status.
#'''[[Character class]]''': One of the most fundamental aspects of role-playing games, this is a sad case of "Start class/Top importance". A big topic with a big history, this article is just begging for some dedicated writers to sit down and shape it into something beautiful. According to the article's talk page, this is also mirrored on at least one Fandom wiki, so getting it into shape will have broader consequences outside Wikipedia alone.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Symbol partial support vote.svg|left|30px]] [[File:Yes check lines.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Category 2'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Articles in this category, while in better current shape than Category 1, are still missing something. They have the potential to be truly high-quality content, and may have been at one point. With work, they can be brought up to dizzying heights.

'''This issue's Category 2 articles are:'''

#'''[[Border Collie]]''': This article for one of the world's most popular dog breeds is a [[WP:1M|Million Award]] candidate. Now at B-class, it's had a few separate issues raised on the talk page throughout its history regarding various sorts of inter-owner drama. There's a good skeleton here, and some meat on its bones would make a comprehensive reference work.
#'''[[Cool World]]''': A former GA delisted just last month, Nathan Rabin's [https://film.avclub.com/my-year-of-flops-case-file-44-cool-world-1992-1798211682 spectacular piece] for ''[[The A.V. Club]]'' back in 2007 (quite the source in its own right) comments that {{tq|Wikipedia has a great entry on this}}, and it can again. The story of this film's failure, notorious in animation circles, is chronicled in depth in as many sources as a curious writer looking to bring this article back to glory could want. Quarter Million-tier yearly pageviews sweeten the deal.
#'''[[American poetry]]''': This big topic was an early FA -- could you make it one again? Now stymied by unsourced and dated additions, this article deserves the same artistic virtue as the works it describes.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Symbol heart vote.svg|left|30px]] [[File:GAEval.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Category 3'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Articles in this category have been assessed through a content review process in the past, but may require work to be brought up to current GA/FA standard. Editors can help bring them to a level where the star or plus near their names can once again shine.

'''This issue's Category 3 articles are:'''

#'''[[Python (programming language)]]''': This 2007 GA (swept in 2009) has been recommended for reassessment, although no GAR has been opened. With over two and a half million views a year, the readers of this widely read article deserve the best they can get.
#'''[[Grunge]]''': The sound of the 1990s is an FA currently undergoing review. [[Wikipedia:Featured article review/Grunge/archive1|The FAR]] discusses overquoting, prose, cite formatting, and length as issues -- all matters a knowledgeable editor can help with. This important article has had a star since 2005, and deserves help to keep it.
#'''[[Icelandic Naming Committee]]''': A short GA on an oddball topic with outstanding maintenance tags, in need of updating and perhaps expansion. Editors interested in going into a unique subject are encouraged to get this one back up to standard.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Veckans samarbete.svg|left|30px]] [[File:Gnome User Speech.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Letter from the Editor'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Hello, wonderful people, and welcome to the very first Discontent Content! I'm glad you're here, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do. In future issues, I hope to use this section to brag about the achievements of subscribers -- so why not go do something worth bragging about?

Article improvement initiatives have a long and storied history on this project, and I'm honoured to add myself to the list of people trying to find one that works. My perhaps quixotic goal here is to unify a few different issues -- the maintenance of old quality-assessed articles (GAs in particular) and the sheer length of the long left tail -- in one fell swoop. I'd be happy if this ended in something like another GA sweep; I'd be happier if it ended in another GA sweep where those GAs got ''kept''. I'd be even happier than that if this resulted in the improvement of our worst articles, not just our best. I believe in the project, and I believe in what we can be.

Most of all, I believe in you. Let's get out there and make this thing better.<br>[[User:Vaticidalprophet|<b style="color:#000">Vaticidal</b>]][[User talk:Vaticidalprophet|<b style="color:#66023C">prophet</b>]] 06:35, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

== [[Beverley Anderson-Manley]] ==

Thanks for starting [[Beverley Anderson-Manley]]. However, I am not sure if the title, nor the heavy use of "Anderson-Manley" throughout, is the most common nor appropriate. For her [https://www.amazon.com/Manley-Memoirs-Beverley/dp/9766373132 memoir] she uses the name Beverly Manley, which is the preferred name form in  [https://www.worldcat.org/identities/lccn-no2009049816/ WorldCat] and all [https://viaf.org/viaf/86315975/ VIAF databases]. The majority of citations in the article seem to use "Beverly Manley", as does [https://www.c-span.org/person/?beverleymanley C-SPAN],  In Darrell Levi's [https://archive.org/details/isbn_9766050880/page/328/mode/2up biography of Michael Manley], usage of "Beverly Manly" outnumbers "Beverly Anderson-Manley", although the latter is used when the author directly acknowledges the subject (acknowledgement, interviews, etc.). Articles in [https://jamaica-gleaner.com/ The Gleaner] seem to use a mixture of both (sometimes in the same article), in addition to the more recent name Beverley Duncan or Beverly Anderson Duncan (with and without the hyphen). In total, I think "Beverly Manley" is the most widely used and recognized name and should be the article title per [[WP:COMMONNAME]], even if "Anderson-Manley" or "Anderson Manley" was her legal name during and after her first marriage. What do you think? [[User:Animalparty|--Animalparty!]] ([[User talk:Animalparty|talk]]) 05:06, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
:{{u|Animalparty}}, quite right. I've moved and edited accordingly. Thanks. [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 11:57, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

== FAC of R. A. B. Mynors ==

Hi Eddie891, I hope you are doing fine. I'm contacting you because Gerda Arendt mentioned you as a person with relevant FA experience. I'm about to nominate [[R. A. B. Mynors]] for second run at FAC after addressing issues that were raised at the previous nomination. Since Gerda recommended you, I was wondering whether you might want to contribute a review when the article arrives at FAC. Best, [[User:Modussiccandi|Modussiccandi]] ([[User talk:Modussiccandi|talk]]) 22:10, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
:Yes, I can take a look, though feeling rather unmotivated when it comes to higher-class article writing and reviewing at the moment. Regardless, I should be able to manage it [[User:Eddie891|Eddie891]] <small>''<sup> [[User talk:Eddie891|Talk]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Eddie891|Work]]</sub>'' </small> 23:28, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

== Discontent Content Issue 2 ==

{{tmbox
|type = notice
|image = none
|imageright = none
|text = {{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Veckans samarbete 2.svg|left|50px]] [[File:Accessories-text-editor.svg|right|45px]] <center><font size = 6>'''Discontent Content Issue #2'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Welcome, subscribers, to the second '''Discontent Content''' newsletter! Discontent Content is a newsletter aiming to collate and improve Wikipedia articles in need of more eyes and hands to get them in shape. Its unique trimodal structure allows editors to work where they feel comfortable -- with stubs and starts needing to be brought to standard, mid-quality articles with Good or Featured potential, or quality-assessed articles needing help to maintain their status.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Nuvola apps important blue.svg|left|30px]] [[File:Nuvola apps important purple.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Category 1'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Articles in this category are those that need to be brought up to a minimum quality standard. Some will be stubs; others will be longer articles that nonetheless have significant concerns putting them far below B- or C-class adequacy.

'''This issue's Category 1 articles are:'''

#'''[[Michael Krasnow]]''': A recent AfD survivor, this article is currently a single-paragraph stub, but has substantial expansion potential in online, print, and archival sources alike. [https://www.browardpalmbeach.com/news/the-hunger-artist-6332189 This piece] is a particularly useful starting point for such a unique article.
#'''[[Injury]]''': A start-class Vital Article with the common problem of medical articles of list-formatted content that'd work better as prose. 
#'''[[Fetish Con]]''': This ''eccentric'' topic that I absolutely do not apologise for placing right under "Injury" survived AfD in March. Though currently in poor stub-and-table shape, the AfD made it clear substantial expansion potential exists.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Symbol partial support vote.svg|left|30px]] [[File:Yes check lines.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Category 2'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Articles in this category, while in better current shape than Category 1, are still missing something. They have the potential to be truly high-quality content, and may have been at one point. With work, they can be brought up to dizzying heights.

'''This issue's Category 2 articles are:'''

#'''[[Home]]''': Another start-class Vital Article, this one is at level 2, making it one of the 100 core topics. It's also...I think it's a Million Award candidate? Honestly, man, I don't know, I checked three years and they all had frankly weird charts. This one has good bones, but the internal sections are all in need of expansion. Someone able to work on them could certainly take this to GA.
#'''[[Tea]]''': The world's most popular drink (inb4 water) was an FA back in the Brilliant Prose era, but no longer. Attempts since to bring it back to standard have failed. Will you succeed?
#'''[[Mazes and Monsters]]''': Tom Hanks' first leading role, an early DYK, and an unusual quirky topic, this article bears real potential for expansion.

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Symbol heart vote.svg|left|30px]] [[File:GAEval.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Category 3'''</font></center>|radius=}}

Articles in this category have been assessed through a content review process in the past, but may require work to be brought up to current GA/FA standard. Editors can help bring them to a level where the star or plus near their names can once again shine.

'''This issue's Category 3 articles are:'''

#'''[[Death Cab for Cutie]]''': This GA is up for GAR primarily due to uncited text. A motivated editor could save this article's plus sign by hunting down verification.
#'''[[Doctor Who missing episodes]]''': An FA at FAR and in danger of moving to FARC without engagement. This significant chunk of television history has tons written on it, and yet a number of the sources in the article are subpar. Can you save it?
#'''[[Windows RT]]''': Though this GA has been recommended for GAR since last September, it hasn't been brought to the process. No reasons are given on the talk, but the lead looks in need of a trim to bring its information to the body, and there's more than a bit of [[WP:OVERCITE]].

{{divbox|1=simar|3=[[File:Veckans samarbete.svg|left|30px]] [[File:Gnome User Speech.svg|right|30px]] <center><font size=3>'''Letter from the Editor'''</font></center>|radius=}}

''Updates on articles from last issue:''
#'''[[Grunge]]''' has been delisted following an unsuccessful FAR. Anyone who wants to get this important article back to FAC is strongly encouraged.

''Reader suggestion:''
<br>{{noping|BOZ}}, a founding member of the new [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Cemeteries|WikiProject Cemeteries]], has an additional suggestion for anyone looking for further inspiration:
#'''[[Bohemian National Cemetery (Chicago)]]''': A Czech cemetery in Chicago and the first I've heard of with an area dedicated specifically to fans of a given baseball team, this cemetery has ties to outsider art, historical shipwrecks, and one of the city's founding ethnic communities.
