Odd question

Why do you change the date formatting in the refs? I've noticed you've done that a few times before, asking because the use mdy dates template should automatically take care of that no? Unless I'm missing something and it doesn't on some platforms? Kung Fu Man (talk) 17:32, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

My bad, didn't realize the article had that template on it. I just do it through muscle memory I guess. When I go to make any tweaks and see that formatting, it kinda becomes like a visually obvious thing to fix so I just tweak it, I suppose. Soulbust (talk) 17:38, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Gotcha. Just to keep you in the loop, compiling Zenyatta's reception, and will likely flesh out Bastion more to B class at least before it goes live. Still trying to keep all the characters for the most part structurally the same.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 19:59, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Since I'm guessing you're reading these, order of operations on my end is to bulk up that I've got out now, then move onto Roadhog, Lifeweaver, and Genji. After those, the possibles are Baptiste, Sojourn, Reaper (Cukie wants to do this one herself), and Sigma in descending order. Juno may also work but her sourcing is kinda light I fear.

The remaining ones are likely not happening: Winston and Echo have zilch for commentary unless I've missed something, Torb has a *start* but almost all of it is Valnet and doesn't work, even the Daily Dot list is just a trivia bit. Illari's discussions are strictly about how she doesn't have lore. And Mauga, Venture and Hazard never really seemed to get enough rounded discussion, which is sad because I was hoping there was some cultural conversation about Mauga at least.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 18:32, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Glad to see OW characters get some fleshed out articles and thanks for doing a lot of that work. I recall a year or two ago during AfD discussions others telling me most of them wouldn't be able to sustain their own articles, so definitely nice to see you working on the articles. Haven't had that much energy (or maybe just time) myself to work or start VG-related things in a while, honestly.

IIRC, Reaper was one I mentioned to you as one I figured could have his own. Based on how popular he is, I thought there was bound to be sourcing there for him. I'd probably want to assist on that one, as well as Genji's.

I think Venture is plausible if there is some discussion there on them being non-binary. But yeah probably understandable that the newer OW2 characters generally don't have much literature/sourcing written about them.

Will help out where I can. Soulbust (talk) 18:39, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Reaper surprisingly is still kinda on the weaker end, but what he has are three full articles for himself, which is not the best but we can easily argue it's viable for size split with the fact they're all clearly sigcov. There's a 4th reference, but it's an unpublished paper that was cited by a published work, so hoping that can squeak through. Cukie Gherkin's really got her heart set on doing that one, so if you want to lend a hand would probably jump in only after it goes live as a formality.

Venture was surprising; there was some commentary about them being nonbinary, but it fizzled fast. I figured there's at least be some *design* commentary but that didn't seem to pop up either. Retrospectives later on may manifest something for them down the road.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 18:45, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

Yeah that's more than alright about Reaper. I figure it will be a situation like Rein or Zen, where I'll just be doing some small edits. And I think so too about Venture. Perhaps the other OW2 characters in general will get some retrospectives that prove useful for making articles about them, but I would probablyyyy bet on Venture as the most likely to attract that.

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Pokémon introduced in generation VI

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 Category:Pokémon introduced in generation VI requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2024_October_12#Category:Pokémon_species_introduced_in_Pokémon_X_and_Y.

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.

Regarding SI

It seems On SI is a contributor branch, and there's concerns they were using AI: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Noticeboard#Sports_Illustrated Kung Fu Man (talk) 20:48, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

That's disheartening for sure. Might have to be assessed for WP:VG/RS where I hope it can at least be tagged as situationally reliable for actual esports articles (I also see pre-2019 seems to be fine for SI in general). I have used ESI and On SI on esports (and traditional sports) articles. I am aware On SI was a spinoff of the main website, but figured it was just for more focused pieces.

Adding image to GA hook

Saw you approved my "did you know?" thing and mentioned I could include the article's main picture. How would I do that? RenaMoonn (talk) 22:15, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

@RenaMoonn: Hi. I would this following template (go into edit this section on my talk page and then copy and paste it into your DYK nom):

}}

Place it in the line right under where it says {{DYK nompage links. Also I would add a caption to the image. And add a comment to your nom saying you added the image for consideration.

If you find any issues with this, please let me know and I'll help you out with it. Soulbust (talk) 18:15, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
