Thanks for defamation

I need to get an admin review for the false accusations for sockpuppetry. I didn't knew why and how some one can accuse for something trivial? SuperHero👊 18:15, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Check my history mate. I have a clean record, anyways I do not negotiate with someone who defames anyone for own edit interests.

I told you I do not negotiate with any user without sane reason accuses for sockpuppetry. Anyways, I have been warned by users and not repeated that and even votestacking would have been done (or not to be precise) I abide by rules. My record is clean and your false claims of sockpuppetry is just harassment. See you and get well soon brother. SuperHero👊 21:27, 8 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey 48JCL, thank you so much for doing the GA review for my article npm left-pad incident! I appreciate the feedback about sourcing and I'll be sure to keep it in mind for the future. Have a good one! ~Liancetalk 21:55, 2 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

GA reviewing

edit

Hello there, I saw you've completed two reviews (Npm left-pad incident and Kiribati at the 2020 Summer Olympics) since my last message. I just wanted to check that you didn't just check the sources in those reviews, and that you also took a look at the prose, the layout, and the other bits of the GA criteria? If you did, it's good practice to just say so in the review. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:21, 5 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Just checking you saw this 48JCL? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:11, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
@AirshipJungleman29, terribly sorry I somehow did not see this. I made a promise, more specifically to Pokelego that I would add stuff on the talk page. Cheers 48JCL TALK 11:20, 13 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
OK, I did that stuff on Talk:Rhapsody (climb)/GA1. xq 12:52, 15 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your signature

edit

I saw your signature at this AfD, which has gotten pretty heated, and thought – did they really tag this guy's !vote with citation needed and dubious? That would be a whole new level of badgering! Thankfully, it was just your signature, which gave me a good laugh. Toadspike [Talk] 08:41, 7 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

GA reviews

edit

Hello. I appreciate that you're trying to get into reviewing, but I was hoping that you could return Talk:Fear of bees/GA1 and Talk:Autocracy/GA3 so more experienced reviewers can address them. I'd also prefer if you didn't appoint yourself the source reviewer of my other nomination Talk:Federalist No. 8/GA1 despite the actual reviewer not accepting your offer to share the review. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 00:11, 8 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, and done. Cheers! 48JCL TALK 02:31, 9 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
48JCL, it would be more appropriate for you to request a G7 speedy deletion on both the Talk:Fear of bees/GA1 and Talk:Autocracy/GA3 pages, so they can be deleted, rather than request a second opinion; there's been very little done on the former review and nothing on the latter one. See WP:G7 for more information. Please note that I have already made an adjustment on the Talk:Autocracy page to help deal with that one, but the best thing is still the G7. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:05, 9 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Based on the "done" above, and the latest addition of a semi-retired template, I've gone ahead and G6'd both of these. Let me know if something else needs to be done. I don't think anything needs to be done with Federalist No. 8.--Floquenbeam (talk) 16:26, 10 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi 48JCL, I would just like to check in on this regarding Talk:Slowpoke (Pokémon)/GA1. You have carried out some defined Spot checks, but it is very unclear what the process means. What is a pass, if not a reliable source? How are you checking offline sources such as Millennial Monsters: Japanese Toys and the Global Imagination for original research and copyvio?

Slowpoke Good Article Review

edit

Thank you for taking the time out of your day to review Slowpoke (Pokémon), both of us nominators appreciate it. However, are a bit confused about the lack of overall comments on the article. While we're glad our prose is apparently up to par, in my case I find it a bit odd that there were apparently no comments to be made about anything in the body bar the citations checked for the spotcheck, as well as an additional lack of comments about how we passed things such as the manual of style and overall. Additionally, your source check seems to only be checking about verifying the lead, whereas most reviews focus on verifying not only the lead, but also the rest of the body of the article. If it's not too much effort, would you be willing to leave additional comments or overall summaries of these areas in order to explain your rationale? While it may or may not affect your overall review, we do just want to ensure the review was conducted while complying with the usual Good Article review standards. We hope it isn't too much trouble.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:CaseOh

edit

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 Draft:CaseOh, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.

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. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 03:21, 12 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

TheTechie, it is literally a draft. Why is this tag being added? 48JCL 📲 22:15, 13 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
At the time of tagging, all it said was "CaseOh's grocery store". But, as an admin has declined it, I'll leave it alone. thetechie@enwiki: ~/talk/ $ 20:22, 16 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Seriously? It’s a DRAFT 48JCL 19:42, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
  • (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/CaseOh (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)) Are you aware this is a draft of something the community looked into recently (especially as to sourcing) and decided to delete? The article was deleted, plus the moved draft got deleted, and a user sandbox got deleted as well as content forks. You've offered no BLP-worthy sources and only a copyvio image. Yes, this matters even in a draft. It's not an alternative space to edit with free rein. Cheers. JFHJr () 01:04, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
...and Deb salted this article name space with the comment "Repeatedly created A7 article". See CaseOh red templates for more deletions and moves. JFHJr () 02:53, 21 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Re: Warnings

Not sure why you replied to a notice I gave over a month ago, but I am not required to follow the exact order of the warning templates (that's why we have level 4im warnings) and users generally should warn based on the severity and amounts of vandalism.

Hi 48JCL, thanks for nominating Template:Piccadilly Page for deletion. I was thinking, instead of another 7-day discussion, it would be better to just tag the template for G8 once the MfD closes. Maybe withdraw the TfD? '''[[User:CanonNi]]''' (talkcontribs) 01:26, 17 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Drive by fail of Mark Zuckerberg

edit

I was surprised to see here your statement about the minimum % of contributions and position in the contributions list. Can you tell me where you got those numbers? I didn't think the GAN instructions gave any definite numbers for determining if an article was a drive by. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 02:38, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Mike Christie: Pretty sure here, at first I thought it was either 10% or above 6th in authorship but I was proven wrong by BlueMoonset at World War I which then led me to QF the GA (Nom complained so I was very hesitant and g7’d the review). I got the stats here. To be fair, they didn’t really add much prose, and in fact removed more than add, which really screws up the rankings. In fact, most of the text added them. Looking in the history, their main contributions were actually just trimming stuff down and archiving sources. Cheers, 48JCL 12:23, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
OK, thanks -- I'd forgotten about that footnote. I think there are cases where it wouldn't apply so I'll probably start a conversation at WT:GAN about it. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 12:40, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
It seems unfair and overly hasty to fail solely based on who nominated this for GAN. For whatever it might be worth, the nominator did consult me (a frequent contributor) beforehand. You didn't even comment on the prose, referencing, breadth of coverage, neutrality, stability, or media usage. If there are glaring issues with any of those aspects, then it definitely would've helped to elaborate on that within the review. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 13:32, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
You might be a frequent contributor but are not a major contributor. 48JCL 13:35, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
@SNUGGUMS, you are 1.8% contributor. I am assuming MSinccc deleted much of your text. 48JCL 13:37, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
It is quite possible that user did so. Either way, your review should've assessed the article quality based on the criteria I mentioned above, which at least would give people an idea of what needs to be improved. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 13:40, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
48JCL, looking again at that footnote, it says "if there's no post on the article talk page" you can uncontroversially fail it. In fact Msinccc did post a note saying they'd nominated it for GAN and hoped nobody would object. Nobody did object. I think that means you should not have quickfailed it. Did you not see that note? Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:47, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Mike Christie, could you remove this from my reviews? I have g7d it and put the nom back up. Sorry for all the inconvenience.
Ping 48JCL 21:09, 19 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
That should happen automatically when someone else picks it up for review -- it'll mark your review as superseded at that point and subtract it from the count. Thanks -- I think this was probably the right move on your part; if you missed the note on the page it was an easy mistake to make, but since the nominator did ask on the talk page I think a quick fail wasn't the right choice.

DYK for Larrabee County, Iowa

edit

On 23 June 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Larrabee County, Iowa, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that because Larrabee County was not established, Iowa remains a state with 99 counties? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Larrabee County, Iowa. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Larrabee County, Iowa), 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 suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
