:I nominate HickoryOughtShirt?4 to be Editor of the Week for her efforts in creating new articles and her administrative actions. Commonly, this editor is quiet and doesn't draw attention to herself, but not always, as, for example, she participated in the Women in Red panel at Wikimania 2021. At 81K+ edits, HickoryOughtShirt plugs along in true wiki fashion, building the encyclopedia. I admire what she does and how she does it; ergo this award.

Your GA nomination of Chandler Stephenson

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Chandler Stephenson you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of GhostRiver -- GhostRiver (talk) 23:21, 4 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Administrators will no longer be autopatrolled

A recently closed Request for Comment (RFC) reached consensus to remove Autopatrolled from the administrator user group. You may, similarly as with Edit Filter Manager, choose to self-assign this permission to yourself. This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now. To find out when the change has gone live or if you have any questions please visit the Administrator's Noticeboard. 20:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Damon Severson

On 12 December 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Damon Severson, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Damon Severson scored a goal with 0.4 seconds left in regulation to help lead Canada men's national ice hockey team to a silver medal? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Damon Severson. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Damon Severson), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.

More journalist biographies

Would you like to help write articles for the five red links in presidents of the Professional Hockey Writers' Association? I am working on Jack Berry. Would you be interested in any of the other four? I figured you might be familiar with Scott Burnside and Mark Spector. Thanks in advance if you are interested. Flibirigit (talk) 18:31, 28 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Flibirigit, Mark Spector is definitely a familiar name. I would love to collaborate! HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 05:05, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, an article for Mark Spector has been deleted twice. As an admin, you can likely see those revisions.Flibirigit (talk) 11:37, 30 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Flibirigit, I am unsure if both of these authors pass our notability criteria. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:01, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have enough information to write about Bill Fleischman and Rod Beaton. I looked into Dan Stoneking here, but I haven't researched any further. No worries if you cannot find enough for the others. Thanks. Flibirigit (talk) 23:09, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I completed Bill Fleischman. Any DYK suggestions? Thanks in advance. Flibirigit (talk) 01:48, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Flibirigit, I suggest something about his article following the Flyers Cup. Maybe ...that despite it being announced on the radio, journalist Bill Fleischman had no plans to write an article on the Philadelphia Flyers Stanley Cup run? Or ...that Bill Fleischman wrote an article on the Philadelphia Flyers Stanley Cup run in one day that "read like he spent weeks researching it."? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:05, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I was thinking something similar to that, and will play around with the wording. Flibirigit (talk) 02:10, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I submitted Template:Did you know nominations/Bill Fleischman. Cheers! Flibirigit (talk) 17:25, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Help with draft

Hello. I have edited Draft:BrooksRehabilitation draft for review and would like some feedback before submitting for approval. You were involved in reviewing a previous draft. I would like to improve the article and am looking for help to ensure I am meeting the Wikipedia Guidelines.

Gordon Glenister Article

Hi! I just wanted to ask for tips on what should I remove from the article? so that it would fit Wikipedia's standards. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by RBandojo (talk • contribs) 18:35, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi RBandojo and welcome to Wikipedia. Everything in the article needs to be re-written. Terms like his revolutionary influencer marketing course and he has inspired businesses all over the globe are the type of promotional wording we reject on Wikipedia. I suggest looking at other businesspeople's articles and copying that format. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 18:37, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification on Significant Coverage

Can you please clarify amount intended for Significant coverage - I will provide — Preceding unsigned comment added by User32178 (talk • contribs) 22:30, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User32178, You need to provide at least three articles from newspapers or reliable websites that cover Melissa Nicole Quarles in depth. Not just passing mentions, not just one paragraph, in depth. If you cannot find any, then she isn't notable enough for Wikipedia. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:55, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Simon Langley-Evans

This should meet the criteria as an academic with prestigious awards (Nutrition Society Silver Medal is the main award for the nutrition discipline in the UK); he holds a DSc (a rare second doctorate), is editor-in-chief of an academic journal. He has a Web of Science H index of 54 and has a number of highly cited papers. Would this make the grade if there are citations to some of those papers and maybe a link to PubMed search of his publications? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shakeandvac (talk • contribs) 19:54, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Shakeandvac, that's fine. My main critique wasn't that he didn't pass WP:NPROF but the lack of citations. Every single sentence in the draft must be sourced. It does not matter if you can provide a PubMed search, if there are no sources that it will never be accepted. If you can attach sources for everything, I will gladly accept it. Please also remove the external link to the Nutrition Society.HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 19:57, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've updated with citations and more detail. Hopefully these improvements meet with your approval. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shakeandvac (talk • contribs) 18:27, 18 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

rejection of article

Hi - You just rejected my article on Richard Gordon Lillard. This was my first submission, so I must have things to learn. I had actually been working on some changes; I never expected the review to happen so fast. Are you able to give me guidance? If I resubmit, will it go back to you, or will it go to someone else? I noticed that you have posted mainly about hockey players. Richard Lillard is more in the academia area. I realized that I should have noted his many honors, national and regional, and the fact that a scholarship is named after him. I think that people using his Outdoor Classroom, or people receiving his scholarship, would be interested in reading about him. Am I on the right track? Thanks for your help. Prof Mo Lill (talk) 20:05, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Prof Mo Lill and welcome to Wikipedia. While my talk page may be full of hockey players, I have actually written over 100 articles on academics. My main concern with this is that you only cite three sources. This is not enough to show he is notable enough for Wikipedia. You may be unaware but you are allowed to use offline sources on Wikipedia. If you can provide citations for everything in the article, I will re-review it and consider accepting it . HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 20:15, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! I will work on it. I will take a look at the academic articles you have written, as they may have similar sources. It will take me a month or so - that should be ok, as it is within the six month window, correct? So in a few weeks I will get back to you. (I am going on vacation, not abandoning the project!) Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. Prof Mo Lill (talk) 20:22, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Prof Mo Lill, there is absolutely no rush. Just message me whenever you feel it should be reviewed. Enjoy your vacation . HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 20:25, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again - Just before I engage in a lot of work chasing down exact source citations, I wanted to ask you if I was on the right track. I will be able to establish that Richard Lillard had the Outdoor Classroom named after him (which was an honor, not something he "paid for," though I'm not sure how to "prove" that). Also he was a Fellow of the Historical Society of Southern California (which is an honor). He was given several grants and fellowships - Guggenheim, a listing the The WHite House Library: A Short-Title List, a Fulbright, A non-Fiction award from a Library Assn, a resident scholarship at the Bellagio Study and Conference Center and at the Camargo Foundation, and a Fellowship from the Henry Huntington Library. I did read an article you did on a professor, and I took another look at other author/educator pages, and I realized that wikipedia wants some corroboration that the work done by the person was exceptional, groundbreaking, etc. Are you able to tell me -- of course without any "guarantees," I really do understand that -- if this is the direction I should be going? (If I do not answer for a couple of weeks, it is because I am away. I do appreciate any direction you can provide.) Prof Mo Lill (talk) 21:16, 20 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Draft Ricky Dale Harrington Jr

@HickoryOughtShirt?4:

I saw you declined this page. I understand it does not meet the guidelines for political notability; however, I do believe it meets the category for General Notability. Electorally, he performed similarly to Marquita Bradshaw, Merav Ben-David and Paula Jean Swearengin, who each have a wikipedia page despite never having held elected offices.

I would also cite

Chris Cole (politician), 2008 Libertarian Party nominee for the U.S. Senate in North Carolina

John Monds, 2008 Libertarian Party nominee for the Georgia Public Service Commission and 2010 Libertarian nominee for Governor of Georgia

Joffejs, I would cite WP:Other stuff exists. Your references do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. this is an example of in-depth coverage. It is typically accepted that 3 in-depth and reliable/independent sources is enough to pass WP:GNG. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 19:57, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

That makes sense. I'll try and find two more of those — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joffejs (talk • contribs) 20:20, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Joffejs, I agree that he seems like a notable and interesting individual. Please message me once you have added more references and I will gladly pass it. Maybe consider nominating the article for a Did you know feature on Wikipedia's main page once it is accepted. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 20:22, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@HickoryOughtShirt?4:

I believe I have found two additional in-depth coverage pieces, and I have cited them in the article. I am having a little trouble formatting the citation of one of them. Let me know if these suffice

I left a comment. You just need to add citations to two sentences. Also, you need to add four tidals (~) at the end of your sentences to make a ping work. You don't need to ping people when you are talking to them on their own talk page but if you want to notify me anywhere else, you need to add the tidals.

Editor of the Week

Editor of the Week
Your ongoing efforts to improve the encyclopedia have not gone unnoticed: You have been selected as Editor of the Week in recognition of your great contributions! (courtesy of the Wikipedia Editor Retention Project)

User:Rosiestep submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:

I nominate HickoryOughtShirt?4 to be Editor of the Week for her efforts in creating new articles and her administrative actions. Commonly, this editor is quiet and doesn't draw attention to herself, but not always, as, for example, she participated in the Women in Red panel at Wikimania 2021. At 81K+ edits, HickoryOughtShirt plugs along in true wiki fashion, building the encyclopedia. I admire what she does and how she does it; ergo this award. SusunW seconded the nomination stating, "I second the nomination. With over 1,000 articles created, clearly HickoryOughtShirt is a valuable member of the community"
