Speedy deletion nomination of Category:WikiProject China articles using collaboration parameters

A tag has been placed on Category:WikiProject China articles using collaboration parameters requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

WikiProject Tamil civilization

Hello, you had marked it inactive but when I undid it, the Project still shows as inactive in all the articles. Can you help me out to make it active ? Thanks Kanatonian (talk) 03:16, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Great to hear that the project is active! You will need to update this template: Template:WikiProject Tamil civilization, which another editor had marked as inactive in 2018. After that, the talk pages will take around a week or so to be updated. --Tom (LT) (talk) 23:09, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Request on 11:39:04, 3 February 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Agantukaya


Thank you for review the article. I understand your point about external links not working. I have removed them.

I have read the footnote areas again and again but finds it difficult to understand.

Can you please review and see whether there are any other areas I need to work on? Bit worried about resubmitting as it might get rejected again. Agantukaya (talk) 11:39, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

  • Yes, it will get rejected again, based on the December 9 criteria from Dan Arndt. Many references used are not reliable or are not independent of the subject. Please see the comments and read the links that are already on your draft. --Tom (LT) (talk) 09:06, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

But have you seen...

Hi Tom (LT), per your comment about a distaste for two of our more specialist-focused infoboxes, I ask you: have you seen {{Infobox_gene}}? It boasts many many fields, and most beguilingly, cannot be edited directly as it automagically pulls all its data from wikidata. See e.g. BRCA1 or p53, both famous proteins that a normal person may actually try to read about. I had an issue where I updated the image for Alpha-synuclein (by adding a new image to Wikidata), and then realized there's apparently no way to resize images in this infobox after it pulls them from Wikidata! So now the article has just had a massive image for a year 🤷. Anyway thought you might get a kick out of it. Perhaps it'll even make it to your infobox pantheon. I hope you're staying well! Ajpolino (talk) 17:15, 9 February 2021 (UTC)

Oh yes, I have seen both of those. In my personal opinion, these are almost completely unusable and unreadable for 99% of our readers, who I am sure would be able to understand some plain text fields much better. However, there is little consensus to change them and I guess they do contribute to WP looking quite authoritative as most readers (myself included) assume they contain all sorts of uninterpretable technical details. --Tom (LT) (talk) 22:35, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Feel free to remove.

Smallbones(smalltalk) 14:06, 10 April 2021 (UTC) Thanks @Smallbones for your attention, but I'm not quite sure what this means. I know I just pinged you over at Wikipedia_talk:Wikipedia_Signpost#Remove_inactive_editors_from_the_subscription_list, but that was about whether there should be an automatic census by a bot of the subscription list to remove inactive editors. Do you suggest that last time an editor is contacted (in the "you have been removed from the subscription list") message that this box is used? If that's the case I think it's a great idea in addition to the message. That way they'll have the latest Signpost article on their talk page :). I guess good ideas like this are why you are the esteemed editor! Tom (LT) (talk) 22:38, 10 April 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, I got pulled away from my computer right after I posted this. I think you have the right idea. I'm a bit leery of just discarding subscribers - or at least of having some bot or "non-specified folks" doing it. But, yeah, I don't want to spam Wikipedians either. Maybe we don't really need a goodbye note at all, just put something at the top of the subscription page like. "Once or twice every year we check this list and remove the names of editors who haven't edited in the last 2 years. But don't worry, when you come back, there will be a box like the one on the right waiting for you, with links to the most recent stories."
Maybe even add "If you'd prefer the smaller box rather than the larger talk page notice, just add {{User Signpost-subscription|version=0|align=right|links=}} to your user or talk pages and leave your username off the list below." I think that could make just about everybody happy. I'll wait for your reply here and the tomorrow propose something like this on the Signpost talk page. Thanks! Smallbones(smalltalk) 00:00, 11 April 2021 (UTC)
@Smallbones great idea. I like the way that you preserve a connection with the signpost, which is both friendly and keeps the editor updated if they become inactive, but we also achieve the goal of reducing WP spam. I think it's important to leave a friendly message similar to the one you propose above at the time someone is unsubscribed, so that they know to resubscribe and why they are no longer getting updates. Please ping me when you make your proposal so I know which venue it's at :). Tom (LT) (talk) 01:24, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

AfC feedback

Hi Tom, Im also of the medical, respectively the nursing field doing lots of peer-review. Thanks for your look at the draft "Advanced Nursing Process". Can you please give help and/or a more exact feedback - the tone is a bit rough you used, and utmost short, you wrote: - Likely a copyvio - Notability not demonstrated - Tone is not encyclopedic but rather like an advertisment or textbook

I'm a reseracher writing scientific articles. So I need help, as my article describes a well researched but new concept - the deepened nursing process. I'm looking for advise - what you mean by "more encyclopedic"? This is not meant to sell something: its not a book, resp. articles were published, but the definition lacks in wikipedia. Thanks Mehwei (talk) 17:32, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi Mehwei. You are referring to here: Draft:Advanced Nursing Process. We do not publish original research here (WP:OR), so if you are a scientific researcher you will be better off submitting this to a medical journal. I have made some comments that I feel clearly communicate the reasons for your draft not being accepted. I also note another 3 reviewers over the last year have also put reasons on the article. You are welcome to have a look at the many links that have been included during the review process already to help you along your journey editing this article; I will not be spending my time duplicating the content that is contained within those links. Yours truly, Tom (LT) (talk) 04:59, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

Peer review question

Hello! Apologies for this random message. I have a quick question about peer reviews. How long would you recommend a peer review should be kept open? In the past, I was told that I close a peer review too quickly (as stated on this talk page) so I was looking for advice on how to better work within this space. I am admittedly quite impatient so it is something that I am trying to work on here. I hope you are staying safe and have a great rest of your week! Aoba47 (talk) 05:08, 29 April 2021 (UTC)

@Aoba47 that's not a silly question at all. Peer review is quite a rewarding experience because people seek often general feedback so the kind of feedback you give has a high chance of influencing how someone actually edits. People are often seeking broad feedback about things like readability, use of technical words and so on; usually (in my experience at least) people aren't seeking so much policy compliance type questions, unless they specifically state that or request a pre-GA/FA review. So this is a round-about way of answering your question, which is that in my personal opinion reviews should be allowed to linger, have some conversation and chance for questions and so forth. The "Backlog" is rarely more than 10 - 20 articles and, I think, given the often introductory nature to Wikipedia we serve, far more important than reducing the backlog is helping editors out (which is also more rewarding for both parties!) There are some procedural guidelines (WP:CLOSEPR) but I consider them less important than the spirit of PR. Hope that helps! Tom (LT) (talk) 04:25, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Thank you for the response. I really like what you said about the spirit of the PR as I agree with you that that is more important. I can be quite impatient so that is what really led me to ask you this question, but I need to remind myself of the importance of the experience as a journey and really enjoy and appreciate the conversations that I have with different editors rather than rushing into different projects. Anyway, after my rambling, I just wanted to say that I really do appreciate your response and it is honestly quite refreshing to see another editor who's attitude about Wikipedia really aligns with my own. While policies and guidelines are important and necessary, I think it is equally important to not let the spirit and good will of these process get lost in the shuffle. Aoba47 (talk) 04:30, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

Peer review

Hi Tom, I don't understand Wikipedia:Peer review/PAGENAME/archiveX - should I just check for "archive1" and stop if it doesn't exist, but if it does exist keep going until it finds the highest number using that one? Is there a possibility of in-contiguous numbers like 1,2,4? Thanks. -- GreenC 16:07, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

@GreenC for this particular error category (Category:Peer review requests not opened the page that we are looking for is here: Wikipedia:Peer review/{{PAGENAME}}/archive{{{archive}}}; so use either archive is included as a parameter formatted as archive=X, look for the page archive=X, otherwise look for archive=1. I'm looking at the code on Template:Peer review Tom (LT) (talk) 06:49, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
I see, thank you. The bot is done and running daily from cron. I expect there might be unknown unknown problems that can arise such as page renames which is more work than I want to test for at the moment as it depends on which page was renamed, if both were renamed or only one, and when during the 7-day process. Could be some other things like that. Given the very low volume, might be best to wait for error reports and fix any rare problems then. -- GreenC 21:54, 17 April 2021 (UTC)
Thanks for your help GreenC. I'm happy to keep an eye on the errors. Are error reports listed somewhere or do you just mean problems that crop up and are reported at WT:PR? Tom (LT) (talk) 04:54, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
Logs and data are available at https://tools-static.wmflabs.org/botwikiawk/peerr/
  • logsuccess.txt - 1-line per page edit. It shows the command the bot invoked to edit the page
  • logerrors.txt - any errors on upload
  • list.txt - A CSV with "----" as separator. Field 1 is the talk page where the template is located. Field 2 is the date the bot first became aware of the template. Field 3 is the page being monitored for creation within 7 days of field 2.
The log shows two pages have been edited as of this time: Talk:Sophie Zhang (whistleblower) and Talk:COVID-19 pandemic at the University of Notre Dame. -- GreenC 03:32, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
@GreenC, thanks, both these act as intended - i.e. to remove {{Peer review}} that is not helpful to readers. This bot is much appreciated. If you are able, would you mind changing your message slightly to read: Removing template {{Peer review}} after 7 days without creation of the corresponding peer review page Wikipedia:Peer review/Sophie Zhang (whistleblower)/archive2 per User:GreenC bot/Job 20? I think the extra few words are important to explain to the uninitiated what happened with the edits. Tom (LT) (talk) 04:31, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

@Smallbones It was a really interesting comment from Bri that provoked some serious discussion. I was thinking of putting it in the comment section and leaving a short note in the interview. That way others can contribute to the discussion. Tom (LT) (talk) 09:38, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for sorting out the interview for members of WP:DAYS.

Reliable source

Hello tom, i have added "The pancreas : an integrated textbook of basic science, medicine, and surgery" (third edition) by H.G. Beger. This is a reliable book. I have also added some other references. I would like to know why lecturio is not a reliable source? (https://www.lecturio.com/magazine/pancreas/) Thermoacidophile (talk) 06:18, 12 June 2021 (UTC)

@Thermoacidophile see WP:MEDBOOK. In particular the page is described as a magazine, the authorship of the article is unclear, it seems to be reviewed by a team that also charge for additional features, it is a textbook designed for students and I don't think it is the 'high quality' textbooks that MEDRS refers to. So I don't think it is a suitable source for a fact that is to be inserted in an article's lead. Hope that helps, Tom (LT) (talk) 21:18, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

Request on 10:24:21, 23 August 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Astropolar13


Hi Tom! Could you give me some comments on how to improve the draft I'm currently editing (Praxis EMR)? I added multiple references that, to my understanding, meet every criteria that Wikipedia establishes for notability, but my submissions keep getting rejected with the same template message. Why is it that, for example, none of the books by Mark Braunstein qualify as reliable independent sources with significant coverage? Thanks in advance!

PD: In case you haven't noticed I'm a new editor, so feedback of any kind (specially regarding Wikipedia use in general) is much appreciated.

Astropolar13 (talk) 10:24, 23 August 2021 (UTC)

Despite the denial on your talk page, I still suspect that you are a paid editor. I can't help you beyond the many links already contained in the advice on the draft page. Try looking at similar articles that have been accepted. You need to provide secondary publications unrelated to the topic that demonstrate it is notable. That is more than the bar for just describing it. Thank you. Tom (LT) (talk) 08:15, 24 August 2021 (UTC)

@Tom (LT): I'm a Spanish speaking college student, and I'm not by any means a professional writer; no company would hire me to write a Wikipedia article. If I was a paid editor, I would disclose so. I thought this would be a fun project to take on, to practice English writing and simply for the fact that I find Praxis interesting. I had no idea the bureaucracy that exists behind any Wikipedia submission, and now it has become a sort of personal challenge. Some editors at the Teahouse already helped me get on the right track, and many references were removed for not meeting the necessary criteria. I still believe the subject is notable enough to deserve its own Wikipedia article, and that there are sufficient reliable and independent sources to demonstrate it.

Authorship of Signpost article?

@Smallbones The current interview is with WP DOTY. EpicPupper hasn’t contributed at all to this interview - I am the sole interviewer - have a look at the contribs log. They intended to interview Spoken WP but the draft was empty so I have overridden it (I also notified them at the time). Hope that clarifies things. Tom (LT) (talk) 10:37, 28 August 2021 (UTC)
OK, now I've got it. It was my misunderstanding. You are the sole author. Thanks for stepping up!

Dear Tom,

I've noticed you are active on the Project COVID-19 Wiki page and I was hopeful youd be willing to review this AfC for Dr. Vin Gupta, who is a pulmonologist and prominent medical analyst on COVID-19 for NBC News. He's been on primetime TV nearly every night for the past two years across the US and feel like this is a key void to fill for wikipedia.

Grateful in advance for your review as you have time. Kind regards,

WP:AFC Helper News

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.

  • AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
  • The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.

Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Question about GA review - COVID-19 pandemic

Hello Tom, I see you are a very experienced editor and reviewer of articles; I noticed during your GA review of the COVID-19 pandemic article that you mentioned the 'herd immunity' material about Iceland was effectively similar to the endemic phase content(You said I'm not sure how this is in fact any difference), I was just wondering what WP:PAGs you were employing here—it could be argued, and is being argued elsewhere on a similar type of content that since the sources don't mention endemicity then it would be WP:OR to harmonize them. Trying my best to navigate the subtleties of the policies and guidelines here when the content isn't quite so clear. Thanks, SmolBrane (talk) 03:11, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

Sure. I can see that the Iceland statement has been removed. It struck me as WP:BIAS and WP:RS to include it. BIAS is because from my understanding it was basically a combination of vaccines and then letting the virus become endemic within less vulnerable groups to maintain a herd immunity around the vulnerable. Which is almost the same intention as other countries; however if it is announced by a developed country it gets called 'herd immunity' whereas if it is a developing country is is labelled 'endemic' (I take into account that these are not technically the same meaning but I think this is the way it is portrayed in the lay press). WP:RS is relevant because, as the article now states, achieving such a level of immunity is unlikely to impossible and, to me, the WHO opinion constitutes a more reliable opinion to include than the original source. Both issues are now not relevant as the statement has been removed. Tom (LT) (talk) 10:07, 2 December 2022 (UTC)

A correction you may want to make

Hello, at your note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Biology you wrote "asking her prior". I think you meant "asking here prior". I thought about fixing it, but decided to let you know here instead. SchreiberBike | ⌨  12:41, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Thanks, good catch. Fixed. Tom (LT) (talk) 11:33, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Willem Ombelet page

Hi Tom, I am not sure why factual information about dr. Ombelet's education and work is considered a copyright violation. One cannot rephrase 'Journal of the European Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy', or 'Willem Ombelet was the President of the Flemish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (VVO. Or how should I go about this? Karzel666 (talk) 11:33, 15 June 2023 (UTC)

There were full sentence matches on the copyvio check. You will have to find a way to overcome this yourself. I don't provide further information to draft bio creators outside of exceptional circumstances, as users are generally self promotional or paid. Yours, Tom (LT) (talk) 12:23, 17 June 2023 (UTC)
