Hi. I'm just gonna leave some notice though and I am aware you're having a wikibreak. You pointed out there were prose issues at reception, but the 2 paragraph about sexualization have been rewritten now. Thanks for all the feedback! 🍕Boneless Pizza!🍕 (🔔) 00:44, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Boneless Pizza!: Thank you for the message. I am currently taking a break from doing reviews, but upon a very quick inspection of that section, it does look better to me. I hope that the FAC is going well, and apologies for not being much help. Aoba47 (talk) 01:38, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TFA

Thank you today for Kes (Star Trek), "about a fictional character played by Jennifer Lien from the sci-fi series Star Trek: Voyager. She is a member of the Ocampa, a telepathic alien species who have latent psychic abilities and a life span of only nine years. Featured in the show's first three seasons, Kes is primarily shown either handling her boyfriend Neelix's jealousy or helping the artificial intelligence known as the Doctor develop his humanity. The character was removed in the fourth season after Lien's unspecified personal issues affected her reliability on set."! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:50, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Akito Hyuga

Hi there. How are you doing? Heavenly Delusion still hasn't been copyedited by the guild so I instead had Lelouch Lamperouge turned into a GA which was kinda tiring due to his popularity and large appearances. I currently have no other goals besides Heavenly Delusion, but I just realized an old article I created, Akito Hyuga, has potential to become a GA as there is both creation and reception sections cited. The only thing lacking is a copyedit to see if it can become another GA. It's a really small Code Geass article when compared to Lelouch so I wanted to know if you could give it a look and revise the prose. Anyways, happy editing. If anything, ask me for a favor like reviewing something. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 00:24, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: Thank you for the message. I am doing well. Just trying my best to be honest. I am in the middle of reviewing two FACs and a peer review at the moment, but when I am done with both, I will look through the Akito Hyuga article. What does stand out to me right away though is the Japanese citations will need to have English translations for their titles. I hope you are doing well and having a great start to your weekend. Aoba47 (talk) 01:25, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I did what you advised me. Tintor2 (talk) 23:44, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

About Tidus. This is a really old FA I made in the past so after talking with the user working on Ada Wong about FA demands, I decided to follow the advices he got to rearrange Tidus' reception too. I'm trying to do the same with the GA Kyo Kusanagi too as it is also really old and thus removed most minor references.Tintor2 (talk) 17:01, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: Thank you for the message. I do want to note that the prose for the "Analysis as a heroic figure" subsection could use work. I would not consider it on the level expected for a FA. I would avoid listing universities as ways to describe the researchers. It does not really help readers better understand who these people are and professors do work for different places over time. There are grammatical errors, like Kristofer F. Sjølie University of Oslo claims, a few spots where the university is directly attributed as saying something, i.e. University of Newfoundland said that and as said by Washington State University. That is just not true as neither of these universities are officially saying either thing. This subsection in particular would need more work. Aoba47 (talk) 22:44, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the advice. I'll try removing those parts. Tintor2 (talk) 23:56, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I did a brief copy-edit to the lead for the Akito Hyuga article (here), and here are some comments that I had for it:

The lead uses a lot of in-game terminology that would not make sense to an unfamiliar reader. For instance, what is the E.U. in the context of this game? What is a.t.b. or a "Knightmare Frame pilot"?
I removed the following from the lead, from Area 11 called W-0, as it was another part that does not really make sense to an unfamiliar reader. I think it may also be unnecessary details for the lead anyway, but feel free to disagree and revert this part back.
I have know absolutely nothing about the source material so I honestly do not understand what this sentence is saying: Akito is cursed with a supernatural "Geass" after command by his brother Shin Hyuga Shaing that he controls at will, allowing him to savagely kill his enemies in the battlefield, thus was given the title "Hannibal's Ghost" (ハンニバルの亡霊).

I do not think the article is ready for a GAN. The prose for the lead is rough, and I would say the same for the article itself based on my brief look through it. Copy-editing has never been my focus on Wikipedia and as I worked through the lead, I was more and more uncertain if I was the right fit for this. I am just not fully comfortable making changes, particularly to a franchise that I honestly know nothing about (and as I said above, the article does not give enough context or information for unfamiliar readers like me). I think it would be best to work with an editor with more experience in copy-editing. Apologies for not being much help. I just do not want to mess up anything. Apologies again. I hope you are doing well and having a good end to your weekend. Aoba47 (talk) 23:27, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. Just the advice is enough. Tintor2 (talk) 00:04, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for understanding. Aoba47 (talk) 00:50, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the copyedit. If you find anything complicated to understand feel free to tag it. This week I tried revisiting his in-universe info to make it easier to understand. Tintor2 (talk) 23:26, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Userpage achievements

Hi. I saw your edit about this [1] and comments to other FACs. Honestly, that's a huge achievement that shouldn't be deleted (You should be proud of it). I love how you're too sincere and helpful to other editors aswell. Thank you for helping to improve articles. I hope you're able to stay in Wikipedia for long time. I know life is getting tough rn, especially when we have problems or limited time due to work, but we need to only edit if we're able to. Life goes first. Thank you! 🍕Boneless Pizza!🍕 (🔔) 03:46, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the kind words! Aoba47 (talk) 14:19, 14 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

Just coming down here to say hi and enquiring on how you're doing, my friend. Hope all is well. I am slowly getting back to active editing and might get back full-time soon. — Ssven2 ^{Looking at you, kid} 10:58, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ssven2: Thank you for the message. I am doing alright. I am currently taking a break from Wikipedia. I have been feeling self-conscious about my work on here lately so it seemed like a good time for that. I am glad that you are more active on here. Do you have any projects in mind? I hope you are doing well too! Aoba47 (talk) 22:30, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I feel you. Real life sometimes gets to us all. It got to me hence I haven't been active much. I miss this place. Speaking of projects, I have got a pro wrestling related article (Money in the Bank (2018)) up for GA. I was wondering if you could take it up or if you know someone who works on articles related to professional wrestling if you aren't quite familiar with the sport. Thanks. — Ssven2 ^{Looking at you, kid} 03:17, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but I do not know of any editors who work in that subject area. You could try leaving a neutrally-worded message on Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Professional wrestling to see if anyone is interested in doing a review. The GAN process recently introduced good article review circles so that may be worth looking into. To be honest, I am not entirely sold on the concept, but I can understand why they are trying something new since there is usually a large backlog for the GANs. You could also of course see what editors worked on past GAs/FAs on wrestling. I hope that these suggestions are helpful, and best of luck with the article! Aoba47 (talk) 17:15, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have listed it under the Wikipedia:WikiProject Professional wrestling good article nominations so I hope someone takes it up. I'll wait to see if anything turns up. If not, I'll ask on the talk page like you suggested. Also, the good article review circles is interesting but yeah I see your point. I kinda feel old-fashioned when it comes to GA reviews. Asking your fellow editors you know around to see if anyone takes it up is how I am used to doing things. I will give the review circles a try though sometime. — Ssven2 ^{Looking at you, kid} 11:43, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
