You seems to be reviewing short articles, would you also give Ashley Williams (Mass Effect) article a shot? thanks. 64.226.58.107 (talk) 11:30, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

DYK for Outram Park MRT station

On 16 August 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Outram Park MRT station, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that an artwork in Singapore's Outram Park MRT station represents the state of mind of commuters through 69 engravings of surreal human forms? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Outram Park MRT station. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Outram Park MRT station), 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.

Source checks confirmation

Hey Brachy0008, I was reviewing Talk:Wooloo/GA1 and Talk:Hougang MRT station/GA1 for the GA drive and noticed that you haven't mentioned which references you checked in both reviews. Could you please confirm whether you conducted a source review before passing the articles? — Golden ^talk 16:37, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

For Wooloo, I did a source check and notified them about the primary sources. For Hougang MRT station, I tag-teamed with another user, which kind of gave me a learning experience. Brachy08 _(Talk) 22:10, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

Do you know whether you or the other user conducted a source review on the Hougang MRT station? — Golden ^talk 07:47, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

The reason left by Zxcvbnm was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Besides the one instance of significant coverage in PCGamesN, the game is simply not notable with the depth of coverage necessary for a standalone page. We have a list article precisely for this reason that should be used to add any information instead.

September 2023

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Wildest Dreams (Taylor Swift song). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Zxcvbnm was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: There are very few Pokemon that are independently notable, and Cyclizar does not rise to that level. There is not very much coverage of it. I feel safe in definitively stating it is non-notable, based on my search for sources - stuff like GameRant is considered situational and not indicative of standalone notability. Its entry in the List of Pokemon is sufficient.

Temo Svirely =

Dear Brachy, I want to ask you for an advice on how to make the article acceptable. Temo Svirely was a prominent Georgian-Ukrainian painter. I believe that English-speaking readers of Wikipedia must learn about him. His widow Irina is a friend of mine. She provided me with some of info, as well as photos. Unfortunately I made a misprint in the auto-biography link, and that's why you could not navigate it. I will correct it now. But, besides that, in which sense the "Main projects and exhibitions" is cruft and unnecessary? That section, I thought, provides summary of his work. I think that section must be in the article, but how to improve it? You wrote that the sources are unreliable. But among them, several are very solid. For example, Dmitry Gordon (gordonua.com) is a world-known, if not famous, Ukrainian journalist. Also, Vogue, politeka.net, gazeta.ua. And kommersant.ru which, at the time of that publication, was a highly respectable outlet. Is it that I must remove those less reliable, and only leave those mentioned above? Or, do you deem sources entir ely unreliable ? (Why?) Does Wikipedia publish some sort of index of reliability, of news sources? Victoria Poleva is a famous composer, and some of her work was inspired by Temo Svirely, which I mentioned in the references. Please, advise me on how I could make the article publishable. Maybe you would suggest some additional sections? Thank you in advance! --AndreiMikhailov (talk) 23:46, 26 September 2023 (UTC) Andrei — Preceding unsigned comment added by AndreiMikhailov (talk • contribs) 23:42, 26 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I see that you were passionate on editing the Outram Park station and even tried to put it up for FAC. I don't have time to work on it, since the history is really complicated. Nevertheless, I shall share some resources, and you can help synthesise and summarise the facts and details.

• NEL construction of Outram Park: A scanned copy of Getting there : The story of the North East Line by Leong Chan Teik. See page 10, and pages 47 to 55 for mentions of Outram Park.
• NEL artwork details, from Tan Su's Art in transit : North East Line MRT. p 38, 39, p40 (Memories), p46-47, p 48 (Commuters). (It might be better if you can check the NLB copy at National Library Level 11 as well)
• Old Outram Park layout with NEL and EWL. (also page 1)
• An archived version describing the new interchange design by Arup.

Hope these will help in expanding the page! Also Happy Chinese New Year!--ZKang123 (talk) 05:03, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter

The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:

• Generalissima (submissions), who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
• Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
• AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
• Sammi Brie (submissions), who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
• MaranoFan (submissions), who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
• Skyshifter (submissions), who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to Vami_IV (submissions), who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed.

Draft: Dino Bontis

Hello, @Brachy0008, hope you're well.

The Draft Article for Dino Bontis has been updated with a recent link that shows the subject has signed a USports contract for the 2024 CPL soccer season on April 12, 2024. In your earlier comments, you had stated, "We want secondary sources". The sources included in the draft article meet the Wikipedia criteria of: notability, reliability, secondary, and independence.

notability: The subject has signed a professional contract with Forge FC + reprsented Canada on the U15 and U20 national teams + competed in the Concacaf championships. (These notable achievements have been covered by secondary news sources The Hammer and Northern Tribune which are cited).

reliability: The subject competes on a verifiable professional club, in a verifiable league, and has also represented Canada internationally. (All of these sources are legitimate including the source websites https://forgefc.canpl.ca/ and https://canadasoccer.com/)

secondary: The article contains several sources that are secondary to the professional club which describes the subject competing with Canada's national team, the Western Mustangs, and Sigma FC. (The sources include The Hammer, Northern Tribune, Western Mustangs, USports).

independence: In addition to the independent sources listed above, the subject Dino Bontis is also listed on other published Wikipedia pages as follows:

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/2024_Forge_FC_season

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/2022_CONCACAF_U-20_Championship_squads#Canada

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/CONCACAF_Under-13_Champions_League

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Sigma_FC

I appreciate your review @Brachy0008 and thank you for your contributions. 9ClearBubbles (talk) 15:23, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for addressing the message I left you, I will do another source review (if you can, feel free to find more sources). Brachy08 _(Talk) 22:16, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

@9ClearBubbles, regarding the source review, The Hammer [reaches] out to the appropriate parties and individuals to confirm any tips or other information we might receive from various sources, so it seems to be a bit of a primary source (but still mostly secondary source). Quoting its editorial policy, If we receive information about an individual or organization that is accusatory or unflattering in nature, we give the other party ample time (typically no less than 24 hours) to respond, which might be a concern when it comes to reliability (for me, that is). Brachy08 _(Talk) 03:53, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Good day @Brachy0008. Regarding "The Hammer", according to its website, it is a news site published by Insauga. The term "The Hammer" is a term that makes reference to the City of Hamilton, Ontario. Hamilton used to be a very industrial city with several large steel companies (Stelco, Dofasco, Slater Steel, Frost Fence) and the visual of a "hammer" makes reference to the city's steel roots. This is the reason the football club in Hamilton is also called Forge FC as it makes reference to the "forging of steel". The website publishes news stories about various happenings in Hamilton. The secondary resource link that makes reference to the subject Dino Bontis as a football player for Forge FC is here: The Hammer . You will notice the news site's editorial policy and efforts to publish accurate stories. Its editorial guidelines pageoutline its commitment to accurate and timely information, fairness, transparency and independence. 9ClearBubbles (talk) 18:00, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

I suppose the Hammer checks out. Great job. Brachy08 _(Talk) 23:38, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

I also can't find anything regarding Northern Tribune's reliability. The Western Mustangs source is a statistic, so there is not really any significant coverage from it, even if it is reliable. Same for the USports source Brachy08 _(Talk) 04:10, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

Good day @Brachy0008. Regarding The Western Mustangs website, it confirms that Dino Bontis was a soccer player for Western University and is on the official roster. Another independent website source is from the OUA. It is quoted as saying, "Bontis brothers have been standouts, with Dino Bontis making 12 saves in two clean sheets". The significance of the USports source, although only a statistic, is the importance of the statistic. This independent source speaks to the notability of the player. The subject is listed among the top goalkeepers in the nation and is ranked #1 on the list of goalie leaders with a save percentage of 0.877 for the 2023 season. Another independent website at Global Sports Archive describes several statistics that illustrate the players notable achievements including representing Canada internationally at the U15 and U20 levels. Another independent website at 49 Sport describes the performance of the subject durng the past season and predicts that he will be drafted and sign a pro soccer deal as follows: "Bontis’ 2023 was utterly remarkable, stepping into the role as one of OUA’s best shot-stoppers. 50 saves was only 3rd-best, but it’s about when those saves came that made the difference.  He guided Western to a playoff victory, going on the road against a tough Guelph side and keeping the Mustangs in the contest with 7 saves. They lost to York in the quarterfinal after extra time, but he still spectacularly made 10 stops." Another independent news source is from the Canadian Press as published on CBC which describes Bontis on the roster of Canada's U20 National soccer team. 9ClearBubbles (talk) 18:18, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Statistics, reliable or not, still can't establish notability (see WP:SPORTCRIT). Brachy08 _(Talk) 23:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)

Help with JRL stations clean up

Hey Brachy. If you are available, can you help standardise the JRL station articles? Basically remove citations in the lead and the history prose which you can model from Bahar Junction MRT Station (Phase 1), Tengah Plantation MRT Station (Phase 2) and Jurong Pier MRT Station (Phase 3). For contract details, just rewrite like "Contract J103" to "The contract" and also add the ToUSD values. Thanks.--ZKang123 (talk) 06:08, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
