A big thank you to you and every single person who created articles during the period of the contest for making this happen!

Event coordinator granted
[edit]After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have enabled the flag on your account. Keep in mind these things:
- The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
- The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
- The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
- Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.
If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! — xaosflux Talk 17:45, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
Thank you very much & Kind regards B.Korlah (talk) 17:48, 26 April 2022 (UTC)

Last Request (2020 film) moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Last Request (2020 film), is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. — Bilorv (talk) 18:47, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
Hi @user:Bilorv, I have resubmitted the article for review so another reviewer can have a look. The article simply meet the GNG and has notable mentions in at least two notable newspaper, so I’d hear the view and opinion of another reviewer, moving forward.
Kind regards B.Korlah (talk) 18:55, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- Hi B.Korlah. As I indicated in my edit summary, my view is that three sources about the trailer of a movie are not substantial but routine, so they do not count towards GNG. IMDb is not reliable as it is user-generated, while the movie itself as a primary source. I see you have added two further sources since my review. I'll let another reviewer give their opinion. — Bilorv (talk) 20:21, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

Your Assistance on Draft :Merry Men 3
[edit]Hi there @B.Korlah
I did start a draft recently Merry Men 3 and then discovered that you where actually working on the same movie title before it got deleted.
Don't know if you would be interested on collaboration on working on the
Draft:Merry Men 3 because I am a lil bit stressed out and ill at the moment so I won't be stable here for the time being your contribution would be very very appreciative Afro 📢Talk! 15:21, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Afrowriter; a Quick Look shows that you’ve done a lot of work already. Yes, I started a draft, but I left it cause I got occupied with other things. Good to see you started the page, and I am excited to add to it, will check it much later and take good care of your health please. Some good stuff you’re doing on enwiki! B.Korlah (talk) 15:47, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello
[edit]Hi, Trust you are doing fine 🙂🙂
I recently expanded this article Gangs of Lagos with information gathered online, and I think the article could benefit from having a poster or cover image. Since you are from Nigeria, could you help with that ? Afro 📢Talk! 18:03, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Afrowriter, a good work you’ve done expanding the page, I started the page a while back and can see how much improvement has gone into it, as for the picture, I will check and revert. B.Korlah (talk) 18:11, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- @B.Korlah Thanks, that sounds great! I think the article has the potential to reach GA (Good Article) status, and I plan to nominate it soon. I get back from watching the Qarabağ FK vs. Ajax FC match at the stadium! 😃 Afro 📢Talk! 18:22, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Afrowriter, would be exciting to see an article about a Nigerian film hitting the GA! Love to see it, hahahaha enjoy your football watch. B.Korlah (talk) 18:26, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- @B.Korlah Could we develop the plot further, perhaps by expanding and summarizing it with more details? The current version feels a bit brief, and adding more substance might help it meet the criteria for a GA (Good Article). I believe this new draft Hijack '93 has potential, especially as it centers on a significant incident in your home country. Since I am familiar with both French and English, I think I can handle working through the plot details. Could you also assist in expanding sections like the cast and reception? Afro 📢Talk! 10:14, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hey @Afrowriter, been busy with a lot of stuff lately. I will look at both articles at 2pm-ish Nigerian time today and expand accordingly. B.Korlah (talk) 10:49, 26 October 2024 (UTC)
- @B.Korlah I have expanded the article Hijack '93 can you go through the article. i we be doing more research and waiting for more publications. Afro 📢Talk! 12:56, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Afrowriter, weldone and article looks pretty good, also trying to expand. B.Korlah (talk) 13:08, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
