Question from VexoTheSilly (18:31, 5 March 2025)
[edit]Guten tag! How do I find articles for a really obscure topic, and how would I find bias in a way where its bad may I ask? --VexoTheSilly (talk) 18:31, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- Hi VexoTheSilly, I'm not sure I understand your first question. I assume you've tried searching for your obscure topic.
- Editors mark articles with various neutrality and bias issues. The Wiki system can give you lists of the articles with these issues. Let me know if you need more specific help with this. ~Kvng (talk) 15:02, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
Hello, I am working on a Wiki page for a visual artist, journalist and photographer and am having a tough time getting the citations in correctly. How can I do this? --Uboent (talk) 22:30, 5 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Uboent, I assume were talking about Draft:Stephanie Taylor. Looks like you've correctly formatted the footnotes. I have adjusted so that they appear in the References section. You'll want to move individual references from the top to the end of the sentence or paragraph each supports. See WP:INLINE for general information about placement. Let me know if you need further assistance with placement. The other stuff already in the References section could use a little cleanup but that's a lesser concern. ~Kvng (talk) 15:12, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @KvngI added published works by Stephanie Taylor. I may have some more links to add later, I am going through all of my notes tomorrow to see what is left. I am curious if I should also add the other writings or reporting about public works and published works by Stephanie Taylor as well as my independent sources that were already added into the article here but that you had moved into the article itself. - Cheers, Aaris @Uboent Uboent (talk) 02:08, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Uboent, it looks like User:Kuru has been making improvements. You definitely should be concentrating on independent sources because that's what WP:AFC reviewers will be focusing on. It is often acceptable to include a bibliography of works by the subject but this does not typically help establish notability of the subject (notability is the primary criteria for inclusion of your article draft into the encyclopedia) and such a list is sometimes seen as WP:PROMOTIONAL. ~Kvng (talk) 14:31, 7 March 2025 (UTC)
- Hello @kvng,
- I can not find all of the Published works that were added the last few days. Please let me know where they are. I did have two-three independent sources, should I share them here with you or add them in and let me know if they are independent or not? I previously did and you moved those somewhere as well.

Question from VexoTheSilly (22:44, 6 March 2025)
[edit]Hey, am i allowed to use a translator to put the Wielka Lechia into english? --VexoTheSilly (talk) 22:44, 6 March 2025 (UTC)
- @VexoTheSilly, pure mechanical translation is discouraged but if you review and polish the translation output, it can be quite acceptable. Two other things to be aware of:
- Wikipedias in other languages may have different policies than the English Wikipedia so don't assume that content copied and translated from another language Wikipedia is of sufficient quality for the English Wikipedia.
- You must indicate the source of translated material. This can be done in an edit summary and by adding one of the translation templates to the article you create. See WP:CWW for details.

Request from AwkoTaco19 (06:31, 18 March 2025)
[edit]Ronald Prent was on the Professional sound project page, requested articles to create. I created it, and within less than 24 hours User:Frank Ken moved it to draft without explaining what was wrong. I added one not-so-signifcant line and asked him to move it back, and he told me to move it back. I saw the previous discussion on his talk page was an editor telling him that he was moving a page too quickly into draft, so I asked that editor to look at the page, and this editor admittedly is not familiar with music and award requirements for notability. She is tagging grammy.com as a primary source not in his name, when it should make the subject notable, and in fact, it is in his name. Do you think you can take a look at this page and help? Thank you! AwkoTaco19 (talk) 06:32, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
- Hi @AwkoTaco19, sorry if this is frustrating. We can promptly move it back to mainspace for you per WP:DRAFTOBJECT but the editors that have raised questions (Frank Ken and Significa liberdade) may then just nominate it for deletion and I'm not sure you want to go through that. I would suggest you leave it in draft and spend some time trying to address their notability concerns. It appears the Grammy nomination is for NMUSIC not Ronald Prent so I'm not sure this meets WP:MUSICBIO #8. Do we have multiple independent sources to establish notability? I can have a closer look at the draft itself once you reply. ~Kvng (talk) 14:22, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, @AwkoTaco19! I want to clarify what I stated to you on Frank Ken's talk page. If I had not seen the Grammy nomination, I would have informed you that notability has not been established. However, because of the Grammy nomination, I think he may be, though I admitted I am less clear about what constitutes being the "direct recipient of a nomination in their own name" per WP:NMUSIC. Personally, I would be wary about nominating for deletion because I am less familiar with that specific criterion. However, I provided much more feedback to you in hopes of showing how you could improve the article. I apologize if any of that was unclear. Please let me know if you have any additional questions, comments, and/or concerns about this draft, and I'd be happy to help in what ways I can. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 14:44, 18 March 2025 (UTC)
- Hi @Kvng, @Significa liberdade, no worries! Thank you both for taking the time to improve the article rather than just nominate it for deletion. I've added a few more citations (LATimes, Variety, Billboard, etc.) verifying Prent's Grammy nomination and his work at Galaxy Studios with Darcy Proper, and took off the respective tags. I'll continue to work on the page, but let me know if there's anything in particular you think I should improve. Best, AwkoTaco19 (talk) 18:41, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
- @AwkoTaco19, as an AfC reviewer, I find the best way to get articles improved is to get them into mainspace. What stands in the way of doing the move? ~Kvng (talk) 19:02, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

Question from Kami khattak (16:52, 21 March 2025)
[edit]Hello, how are you. Will you be able to tell me why the Wikipedia use different signs in the writing why not dimple sentences. Regards Kamran --Kami khattak (talk) 16:52, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Kami khattak, I am well! I'm not sure this will answer your question but are you aware of the simple English Wikipedia? ~Kvng (talk) 17:27, 21 March 2025 (UTC)
Question from Geisterwald2755 (10:32, 22 March 2025)
[edit]Hi, I was looking at the page for the Fastball song "The Way" and noticed it lists a cover but not the Gigi D'Agostino remix from his 1999 album. I was going to add a sentence about it o the "covers" section but a remix is not the same as a cover. This is my first edit and I don't know if I should put it there or add another section for remixes (?? if I can?). Please advise! Thanks! --Geisterwald2755 (talk) 10:32, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
- @Geisterwald2755, welcome! There is already a discussion started at Talk:The_Way_(Fastball_song)#Gigi_D'Agostino_Cover. Have a look at that and let me know if you have any followup questions. ~Kvng (talk) 14:47, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
