Scam warning!

There is a scam underway, targeting editors who attempt to publish Wikipedia article(s); see WP:SCAM for more information. If you have been approached by someone offering to create, accept or otherwise help publish an article in exchange for a payment, please e-mail the details to paid-en-wp@wikipedia.org. This may help others in a similar situation to avoid becoming victims of this vile scam.
PS: If that someone claims to be me, they emphatically are not!

If I declined your draft at AfC, and you came to ask me to re-review it, please don't (unless I expressly said you could) – I feel it's fairer to the other drafts that yours goes back to the pool... and probably also fairer to your draft that someone else reviews it next. (And if you just came to tell me you've made changes, that's great, but no need to inform me.)

If you still want to leave me a message about a draft or article, I'd appreciate if you could please link to the page in question, so I don't have to go hunting for it. Ta.

Hello, I received a notification from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:AP_(Thailand)_Public_Company_Limited Let me talk to you about an article may have been created or edited in return for undisclosed payments that I added to the English language page. Because I think it deserves to be there. Because I have a friend who is from a foreign country. Come find information about this item. But no English So I made it for people to find information. I may have made a mistake somewhere. But I didn't intend it to be like that. Because I still don't understand some points and I'm not an expert. Could you please advise what I should do? 58.137.32.194 (talk) 08:43, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You must disclose your paid-editing status, per WP:PAID. That is the only thing I have requested regarding this draft, as I haven't reviewed the draft itself or taken any other action related to it. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:59, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

My Article on KunchaiKuttyPilla_Sarvadhikaryakkar[edit]

I am resubmitting it - but kindly let somebody else review it this time. (Thank you for previous review)

Question from E11e99 (16:43, 21 May 2024)[edit]

Hi - I just discovered I have a mentor ;)

I am wondering why the different pages about countries in WP do not have any kind of common structure - I would like to propose one - however that information does not fit here - what can I do?

Thank you for your time and your guidance --e11e99 (talk) 16:43, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@E11e99: hello mentee! :)

As you may know already, Wikipedia has 'WikiProjects', which are basically groups of editors sharing an interest in particular topics. Your question sounds like it would come under Wikipedia:WikiProject Countries, whose project home page says they "help develop country-related pages (of all types) and works toward standardizing the formats of sets and types of country-related pages". Perhaps you could go over there and suggest this on their talk page, to see what sort of response you get?

HTH, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:22, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thank you!...yes that sounds perfect 😁

I also need help with something else if you don't mind 😅 because I just blooped...I thought I was creating a draft article however I accidentally published it thinking that it would save it or confirm, instead it published directly and I don't have time to finish it now so I deleted it - now I think I have messed things up and the subject will show people a blank page? Not sure how to fix it... e11e99 (talk) 18:40, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@E11e99: can you provide a link to the page you're talking about? You can't delete a page, only an administrator can do that. If you mean you've deleted (ie. blanked) the contents, then that can always be reverted. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:23, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes - I blanked it because it is not ready for publication and I mistakenly published it thinking it was a two-step process. I think you can find it here: Alternative mining indaba e11e99 (talk) 17:35, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Great British Sewing Bee Series 10[edit]

The new series has just started, can you re-submit & I found a new reliable source please? Awise1203 (talk) 09:48, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Awise1203: this draft has been rejected, which normally means it won't be considered further at this time. If you now have sources which weren't available before and which you believe establish notability, you may make an appeal directly to the reviewer who rejected it, namely CanonNi. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 11:09, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The Great British Sewing Bee Series 10 appeal[edit]

CanonNi said you should appeal it, can you please? Awise1203 (talk) 14:44, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Awise1203: why should I appeal it? Indeed, why would I? I've no horse running in this race. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:51, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draft: The Grove, Harrow School[edit]

Hi DoubleGrazing,

I improved this article you have reviewed before significantly now, with many secondary sources and hopefully it should be ready to go into the article space. Could you review it again possibly? I am confident this time it meets the notability criteria as there is much more about the building. Thanks a lot. Daftation 🗩 🖉 19:21, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why would you do that?[edit]

Hello, I am Sam. I noticed that you have declined an article, Y000, but there is already a source that could be reliable. If you do not think that All About Japanese Trains is a reliable source, it could be because you had not read the the Japanese version. Please look into this matter and take even more necessary action. Thank you. Sam (talk) 09:58, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Having an article in the Japanese Wikipedia is irrelevant, each countries encyclopaedia has very different inclusion criteria, the single source does not appear to be reliable, please find better sources. Theroadislong (talk) 10:13, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@SAMCOcreator1655: I suggest you revise our notability guidelines. A single source is nowhere near enough to satisfy WP:GNG, especially when that source is little more than some trainspotter's private blog. And no, I haven't read the ja.wiki article, nor do I have to, because that's not what I was reviewing; I was reviewing Draft:Yokohama Minatomirai Railway Y000 series. If you wish to rely on sources in the ja.wiki article, you'll have to cite them in this draft. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DoubleGrazing Oh, thank you for telling me that. I appreciate your patience on relying on sources in the Japanese article and therefore citing them in the draft. Sam (talk) 10:46, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Now, I had added three more sources from the Japanese version to the English article, can you please look at it again? Sam (talk) 12:38, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Articles for deletion/Kourage Beatz[edit]

Hi DoubleGrazing!

I owe you an apology for rejecting your call to SALT the Kourage Beatz page. As you correctly predicted, it has become a target for recreation attempts. Mea culpa. Owen× ☎ 19:44, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, not at all, @OwenX, and there are of course advantages to leaving a title unsalted to see who comes sniffing around next. :) Cheers, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 19:50, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@OwenX I wonder if each of you have seen Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Tochi Clement? 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:44, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I rarely set foot in SPI, but feel free to ping me if there's something you think I should be aware of. Owen× ☎ 13:49, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@OwenX Since I cannot see anything of the deleted article as I lack admin goggles, would you mind checking that all "involved" editors have been investigated at SPI, notably this one? 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 13:51, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The only others I see involved with the Kourage Beatz page are Greybliss, who interacted on this page, and an anon IP from Nigeria. Owen× ☎ 14:04, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've lost count of at how many titles this has been attempted, with different permutations and combinations of Tochi, Kourage, NSI, etc. I guess at some point they must run out of possibilities, but it may be after my time. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:18, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Whack a Mole, or do I mean guacamole? 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 14:19, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@OwenX Would you mind raising an SPI if they are not already in the list (Twinkle makes it easy), since you can see what I cannot? 🇺🇦 Fiddle^Timtrent Faddle^Talk to me 🇺🇦 14:20, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Timtrent: Greybliss is there, at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Tochi_Clement#08_May_2024, and is still open. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 14:26, 26 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
