Revision as of 22:34, 11 December 2021
Question: How does one withdraw a draft article already submitted for review?
Dear Idoghor Melody,
Many thanks for your message yesterday regarding my creation of a draft for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Alexandros_Kapelis. Also, congratulations on your excellent articles. I learned a lot about Nigerian politics that I was not aware of. :-)
A quick question: Is there a way that I could completely withdraw the submission of my draft? I would like to construct the article from scratch, in a completely different manner, with a more exhaustive research. In the meantime, I have already deleted all the content (but the draft link is still up). Can we please delete it altogether?
Thanks a million!
--Musicofilo82 (talk) 10:04, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Musicofilo82: Thanks for the message. I will put it up for speedy deletion now since that's what you want. --Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 10:31, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Thank you very much. :-) --Musicofilo82 (talk) 10:37, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Musicofilo82: Alright take care and happy editing. 👍Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 10:40, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
You bet! Just now discovering the editing side of Wikipedia and it is an amazing world. Take care! :-) --Musicofilo82 (talk) 11:25, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Musicofilo82: Hope you're aware the draft has been deleted?🤔 Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 12:48, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Yes, I noticed it has been already deleted. Thank you! I guess that when I am ready to do it again, I will just create the article from scratch. Even if it will have the same name, it shouldn't be a problem, right? --Musicofilo82 (talk) 14:02, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Musicofilo82: Yeah it's no problem as long as the content is good and you're not creating an already existing article. --Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 14:07, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Great! Thanks a million again for the support and great advice! Cheers! :-) --Musicofilo82 (talk) 14:11, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Musicofilo82: You are most welcome. You are free to ask at anytime, once again, happy editing!😅 Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 14:26, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Thank you very much! And good morning! A quick question: I have noticed that when a couple of friends of mine (who have had accounts with Wikipedia for a while) write articles, they are published immediately on the main wikipedia system, before they are fully verified. However, when I wrote my first article, it was not published right away, but instead appeared as a "draft". Why is that? Thank you! --Musicofilo82 (talk) 09:43, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Musicofilo82: Good morning from this end... In regards your question, you know there's difference between a new user and an old person or someone who has passed the stage. As a new user, your article will have to pass through the AFC before they become published so as to enable them put the right thing in main space. You know if it's not done like that a lot of people will send irrelevant stuffs to main space. For us at AFC, we see alot of these stuffs new users create and they are declined with reasons so the user can adjust and also ask help at the Tea house. And articles created by old users including myself are scrutinized before they are reviewed. I hope I answered your question...🤔Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 10:38, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the explanation! I understand now. :-) Thank you! --Musicofilo82 (talk) 12:18, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
Rebecca Faulkenberry Wikipedia page
Hi Idoghor Melody,
Thanks for your feedback on my submission for a Wikipedia page. I have added over 12 citations from various news sources which I hopes gets us to the required validation. Please let me know if I am doing something wrong, once approved this page can be linked to the many shows on wikipedia where the actor is mentioned which attests to the notability. If you could review and let me know if you agree or I am missing something I would appreciate it. Many thanks for your time and guidance with my relative new wikipedia contributions! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Broadwaystars (talk • contribs) 15:02, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Broadwaystars: Thanks for dropping a message, the draft is currently in the cue and in no time another reviewer will check it out. Regards. 👍Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 15:10, 28 October 2021 (UTC)
Request on 04:49:49, 4 November 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Xinxiao7
Hey there,
The url links of the references are valid and public. Could you please tell me why the references are not reliable? Xinxiao7 (talk) 04:49, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Xinxiao7: Thanks for the ping. As per your question, having a better look at Reliable sources will help answer your questions. It is expected to add reliable, secondary and independent sources. You should also read about Inline Citation too. --Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 06:02, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
Review my recently created wikipedia page
Hello sir/mam, I was created a new article. Please review it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Krishan_Kumar_Ladoiya — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krishan Kumar Ladoiya (talk • contribs) 02:00, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Krishan Kumar Ladoiya: I have gone through your draft and sorry to say this that writing an autobiography on Wikipedia is an example of conflict of interest editing and is strongly discouraged. Writing autobiographies is discouraged because it is difficult to write a neutral, verifiable autobiography, and there are many pitfalls just like the one you did now. The joy of the process is that if you're notable enough, someday, a user will write an article about you. --Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 04:39, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
Review my recently created article
Hello Idoghor Melody, thank you for quick review of my article, could you please tell me why it reads like an advertisement. I'm trying to create my first real objective article about an app that is booming in the US? Thanks again. Dating-technology (talk) 15:34, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Dating-technology: Thanks for your message, but the version I met really was not written from a neutral point of view. Seems like it was being advertised to readers. --Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 15:53, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
Request on 18:46:54, 8 November 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Cinako
Cinako (talk) 18:46, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
What is significant coverage? The company has been featured in many news sites.
- @Cinako: Thanks for dropping a message. To your question, "Significant coverage" addresses the topic directly and in detail, so that no original research is needed to extract the content. Featuring in many news site doesn't make the topic notable, a question should be asked if those sources are reliable. Maybe you should take a look at General Notability Guidelines and Reliable sources, that will help improve your knowledge about notability and adding reliable sources. Thanks...Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 19:40, 8 November 2021 (UTC)

Recent changes
- Mobile IP editors are now able to receive warning notices indicating they have a talk page message on the mobile website (similar to the orange banners available on desktop). These notices will be displayed on every page outside of the main namespace and every time the user attempts to edit. The notice on desktop now has a slightly different colour. [1][2]
Changes later this week
- Wikidata will be read-only for a few minutes on 11 November. This will happen around 06:00 UTC. This is for database maintenance. [3]
- There is no new MediaWiki version this week.
Future changes
- In the future, unregistered editors will be given an identity that is not their IP address. This is for legal reasons. A new user right will let editors who need to know the IPs of unregistered accounts to fight vandalism, spam, and harassment, see the IP. You can read the suggestions for how that identity could work and discuss on the talk page.

Answering a comment left on a draft
Hey! I was left a comment on my draft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Loveworm_(EP) highlighting that many of the references used are sourced from Instagram. This is only because the article directly refers to the relative Instagram posts for the purpose of creating a timeline (in which the artist was posting updates on her account.) I was unsure if anything needed to be actioned on this on my part. Thanks! :) Disappeur (talk) 10:09, 9 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Disappeur: Hi and Thanks for dropping a message. To answer your question, Content from websites whose content is largely user-generated are generally unacceptable. Example of such includes; Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Instagram, Reddit and others. And about 8(if I'm correct) of the sources in your article are from Instagram and I think one is even from YouTube. You should take a look at Reliable sources so that you'll have an idea of what next to do. Do have a nice day...Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 11:05, 9 November 2021 (UTC)

- Hi Jafente, I've checked it out but there's a problem, you didn't add any sources to those sections which makes it impossible to verify anything you wrote there. Do add some sources and I'll take a look again later...Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 11:13, 10 November 2021 (UTC)
Reviews of academics
For academics, the relevant standard is not whether there are third party sources to meet GNG. The relevant standard is WP:PROF., and that is normally met by showing the person to be influential in their subject as demonstrated by citations to their work.

Review On My University Stub Article
Hi @IdoghorMelody;
Thank you for taking the time to review my article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Kings_University_(Odeomu). I do have a question:
I assumed a "stub" article did not exactly have the same requirements as a regular Wikipedia Article. Taking, for example, this Wikipedia article: " https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oduduwa_University " for example is a stub and has few to similar details like the one I submitted (pretty much what I tried to mirror)
And the others: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elizade_University etc.
Is there Something I am getting wrong in the stub department? or is there a particular section I am missing?
AhZ0k4 (talk) 10:21, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- @AhZ0k4: Thanks for dropping a message. But you should avoid comparing two articles as they are not the same. With that said, there's a reason why the article was declined, which was also written there. Even as a stub, the article needs more improvements and more writing. As it is now, it is poorly written and poorly sourced, but you may submit again and let another reviewer take a look... Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 11:43, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Idoghor Melody: Thank you for the taking time to reply. Could you please identify the areas that are poorly written so i can improve on them? The only feedback i could find was on the references. Also, the reason for the comparing is simply because; i used the same databases as those pages and the same number of references + sections; so I am just wondering how then they got approved and this one didn't. Guess I must have done something wrong. All the same, thank you for your responses, i would add some more references and try again. AhZ0k4 (talk) 10:02, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
- @AhZ0k4: Remember I told you comparing one article to another is really not a good idea. I said earlier that the article is poorly written and poorly sourced, and it is expected of you to improve the article and then resubmit. Thanks...Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 10:24, 19 November 2021 (UTC)

Hello, hope you are doing well. I got a rejection from you and just wanted to point out that I am not trying to make a new article. I just translated it from Portuguese to English. This is the original page: Camille Miller
Thank you for your time and consideration! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Negingrn (talk • contribs) 08:26, 21 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Negingrn: Thanks for dropping a message. Number one is that I didn't reject the draft, I only declined it which means you can improve on the references and resubmit again for another reviewer to take a look. With that said, I want to let you know that you can't compare English Wikipedia to Portuguese Wikipedia as the two are not the same even though it's been owned by the same WMF. Notability standards differ on each Wikipedia and here we scrutinize references a lot when it concerns BLP. Please see WP:References and Reliable sources for more information.

Special:MentorDashboard
. It allows registered mentors, who take care of newcomers' first steps, to monitor their assigned newcomers' activity. It is part of the Growth features. You can learn more about activating the mentor list on your wiki and about the mentor dashboard project. The predecessor to the current MediaWiki Action API (which was created in 2008),
action=ajax
, will be removed this week. Any scripts or bots using it will need to switch to the corresponding API module. [6]An old ResourceLoader module,
jquery.jStorage
, which was deprecated in 2016, will be removed this week. Any scripts or bots using it will need to switch tomediawiki.storage
instead. [7]

- I can't access that space now as my IP is blocked on this network. Someone else will check it out or maybe later in the day when I switch my network. Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 00:07, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Idoghor Melody: I suggest you stop creating all those "Etymology" redirects requested by that IP editor. Etymology can apply only to terms (words, names), not to geographic regions. There is no such thing as etymology of "KPK, Pakistan". One, there the term KPK has no etymology on its own - it's an acronym. Two, the term Pakistan is a separate word with a separate etymology. These useless redirects only add trash to the already crowded search box.
- Wikipedia is not Google Search and is not expected to answer natural language queries.
- I will be tagging all these redirects for deletion. Regards, — kashmīrī TALK 22:34, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
Join State House of Assembly Elections in Nigeria Contest
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/79/Flag_of_Nigeria.svg/80px-Flag_of_Nigeria.svg.png)
You're specially invited to join the State House of Assembly Elections in Nigeria Contest from 6 December 2021 to 6 January 2022.
This new project will be created to explicitly reassure and inspire experienced and new wikipedia editors to create articles on state house of assembly elections in all the 36 states of Nigeria. Starting from 1979, 1983, 1992, 1999, 2003, 2007, 2011, 2015 and 2019, Nigeria has conducted state house of assembly elections. But, none of these articles exist on Wikipedia and this new project will seek to categorically solve this problem once and for all.
Sign up for this contest by listing your username under the participants section.
The following prizes will be awarded at the end of the contest.
- Overall winner - Tecno Spark 8

- @Zie afeo: Thanks for dropping a message here, but the information you seek can only be seen on their various Wikipedia pages or website or from any of their staff(which I'm not). I attended Ozoro poly, but the school has now been turned into a university. And honestly I don't know anything more again.Comr Melody Idoghor (talk) 16:11, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
