G11?
[edit]Hi CycloneYoris, do you think that Swagger Sharma is bad enough to qualify for G11? I came across it while doing reference copyediting on the bus so I don't have more than a few minutes to look into it, but I see that you tagged another article by the same editor – which was deleted – as G11 a few days ago. It's pretty promotional, the one sentence I checked wasn't supported by the cited source, and the sources mostly look trashy, but I don't do much CSD tagging so I don't really know where the boundary lies. Thanks, Wham2001 (talk) 07:42, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Wham2001. The structure of the article looks decent, in my opinion, and it doesn't appear to be as bad as to qualify for G11. But perhaps sending to AfD should do the trick. The previous article you've mentioned had no sources (only external links scattered throughout the article), and because of this, it was a clear G11 candidate. CycloneYoris talk! 08:03, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
- OK, thanks – that makes sense. I will do a BEFORE and decide whether to AfD it this evening. Best, Wham2001 (talk) 11:31, 25 September 2024 (UTC)
2024 in animation deletion of new Event under Specific date unknown
[edit]Hello @CycloneYoris, thank you for your dedication.
On September 13, you deleted an edit I made to the 2024 in animation page under the Events > Specific date unknown section. Your concern was about missing a reliable source.
However, I believe that a source would not be necessary, as the information I added does not fall under any of the following: "All quotations, any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged, and contentious material [...] about living persons"[1] (taken from the documentation you provided).
Furthermore, the 2024 in animation page is generally missing citations for most of its entries. I'm not saying it as an excuse, it just seems to be more lax on that page.

- @Just-ero: I went ahead and restored the entry you submitted, though it would be best if you could find a source that supports it. CycloneYoris talk! 19:42, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

Reminder to slow down :)
[edit]Hi, CycloneYoris! I was checking articles for NPP and noticed you had nominated Wadanohara and the Great Blue Sea for deletion via A3. However, at the time you nominated it, the article was only two minutes old. As such, I just wanted to stop by and remind you that, per WP:NPPHOUR, "unless there are serious content problems" (i.e., CV, attack, or blatant vandalism), editors should "wait at least an hour before nominating an article for deletion". I know I sometimes move a little too quickly, so I understand how easy it can be to forget to check all your steps. :) Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 04:18, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Significa liberdade! I tagged the page as A3 because it was an exact recreation of a page that was deleted just yesterday by Pickersgill-Cunliffe (which was also deleted under A3), and that's the reason why I rushed to tag it since I noticed that the page was exactly the same. The author is behaving in a disruptive manner since they removed the CSD tag without explanation, even though they've received several warnings on their talk page; and they also didn't explain why they recreated the page in the first place. CycloneYoris talk! 05:32, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for the explanation! Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 13:15, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Declined speedy deletion: Paradise Lost (Inal Bilsel album)
[edit]Hi, CycloneYoris! I wanted to let you know that I declined your A9 speedy deletion nomination of Paradise Lost (Inal Bilsel album) as there may be a claim of importance/significance. If you believe the album does not meet notability guidelines, I recommend bringing the article to AfD. Thank you! Take care, Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 15:42, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
Declined speedy deletion: Sunita Gogoi
[edit]Hi there! I wanted to let you know that I declined your G4 speedy deletion nomination of Sunita Gogoi as the current article includes sources published since the page was deleted, and Gogoi has had more roles since the deletion. If you think the article she is still a non-notable actor, I suggest bringing the article to AfD. Thank you! Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 19:05, 5 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, Significa liberdade! Not sure why I tagged it, since the sources are clearly new. I'll see if I decide to take the article back to AfD. Thank you for taking your time to notify me of this. Cheers. CycloneYoris talk! 01:56, 6 October 2024 (UTC)

Difference between draft and afc draft
[edit]Hey. I noticed that when I look at some drafts I see this template:
This is a draft article. It is a work in progress open to editing by anyone. Please ensure core content policies are met before publishing it as a live Wikipedia article. Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL Last edited by MediaWiki message delivery (talk | contribs) 0 seconds ago. (Update)
Finished drafting? or |
In the article spaces. Why can we just publish these instead of going through the submission process, and how is different from the normal AfC review template?
thanks,
Cooldudeseven7 (Cheers! Let's Discuss over a cup of tea!) 17:09, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cooldudeseven7: Both are essentially the same thing. The difference is that an AfC draft cannot be published to mainspace without being accepted by a reviewer, while a normal draft can be published (i.e. moved) by anyone regardless if it has been reviewed or not. CycloneYoris talk! 04:31, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- so, why do some get the normal draft template? Cooldudeseven7 (Cheers! Let's Discuss over a cup of tea!) 11:14, 16 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cooldudeseven7: Probably because the normal draft template is added manually, while the AfC one is added with the help of a script. CycloneYoris talk! 20:42, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Important Question
[edit]I just looked at the user creation log and saw a new account, user:CooperSnyder787878 In the user creation log, it is written that his "other email" was blocked on wikipedia and therefore he created a new account. This seems to be a bypass of a recent block, however I do not know the account he is talking about. Does this need to be reported and where should I report him? Cooldudeseven7 join in on the tea talk 17:48, 21 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Cooldudeseven7: I suggest you open a thread at WP:ANI and an admin there will assist you with that. You could also go to WP:AIV if the user is vandalizing or acting suspicious. CycloneYoris talk! 00:04, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Hello CycloneYoris, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Black Souls (video game), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: This is not web content. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Whpq (talk) 02:32, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Whpq! Sorry about that. I thought the article was about a "browser game" and that's the reason why I tagged it as such. Will move it to draft though since it has no sources. Thank you for notifying me of this. CycloneYoris talk! 04:13, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

Fostered content
[edit]I edited User:CycloneYoris/Barnstars because it was listed at Lint errors: Fostered content. Fostered content is displayable content within a table structure that isn't in a table cell. For more info, see MW:Help:Lint_errors/fostered. I fixed the fostered content by removing the start and end table markup. If this is not what you wanted, feel free to find another solution. If you like my solution, I encourage you to copy the changes into your main user page, which also has fostered content for the same reason. Cheers! —Anomalocaris (talk) 08:58, 1 November 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Hi CycloneYoris -- I notice you speedied a couple of near blank articles what appears to be about 6 or 7 minutes after creation (unless the timestamps are just a glitch of the UK's clocks moving).

"Diddy Parties" article
[edit]Hello CycloneYoris, I'm 123drthy, the accidental editor of the Diddy Parties article. I would like to clarify that I (the primary owner of this account" was not the person who contributed to the Diddy Parties article. I'm in high school, so my friends and I were playing the Wiki Game, and we jokingly made it to the "White Party" article. There, one of my friends stole my computer, clicked on the red hyperlink "Diddy Parties," and added inappropriate comments in the newly created "Diddy Parties" article. I would like to apologize on behalf of their reckless behavior. I kindly request that you delete the "Diddy Parties" article, and I apologize for my friends' behavior, which I acknowledge was on my account.
From, 123drthy
P.S. Please tell the Wikipedia mods it was an accident and I didn't create the "Diddy Parties" article. 123drthy (talk) 22:54, 7 November 2024 (UTC)
