New page reviewer granted

Hi MPGuy2824. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:

• Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
• You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
• If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
• Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 16:30, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Ryuchalo

Hello! Thank you for editing Wikipedia. Have you looked at any of the references on Ryuchalo before adding the notability tag? All are professional news sources (from more than one country/in more than one language) and most of the articles are explicitly about the subject - only a couple are primarily about his mother with mention of him. I can certainly see what else is out there, but it seems obvious to me that the subject meets WP:RS. If you have any further suggestions, please let me know. Londonbeat41692 (talk) 08:27, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

@Londonbeat41692:, I think that while WP:RS is a necessary condition for notability, it isn't a sufficient condition. While Ryuchalo has quite a few sources mentioning him, I don't think he deserves to have an article on wikipedia, assuming that this is all that we know of him. That said, I haven't marked the article for deletion and leave that upto the judgement of future editors. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:33, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Sikkimese elections

Hello. Thanks for your improvements to these articles. However, I noticed you introduced some inconsistencies into them. For example, in the 1953 Sikkimese general election article, you added a bit about five members being appointed to the Council, but the results table says there were six members appointed. In 1958 Sikkimese general election you added that there were six appointed members, but the results table has seven. In the 1967 Sikkimese general election you added that eight members were appointed, and then listed nine, while the results table says six. You might want to double check these. Cheers, Number 57 16:40, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

@Number 57: Thanks for noticing those. I've fixed the info for the 1958 and 1967 pages. Unfortunately, for 1953, i could only find information about 5 of the 6 appointed members. I'll see if there is any way to clarify that in the article. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Thank you, but I'm not comfortable with this change. The Bareh source states that there were six appointed members and three other elected members; you can't change one piece of sourced information because another one doesn't fit. To change the results table, you need to find a source that says there were eight appointed members and one other elected member, otherwise the results table is misrepresentation of a source. Number 57 07:55, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

They were 18 elected seats. I'll revert the offending edit. I found a source for two nominees of the tsong seat here and my other source about the proceeding of the Council says that one of them was in the meeting. Can I conclude that he (Harka Dhoj Limbu) was the elected member? -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:30, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

If you have a source that gives the breakdown of seats as 'others 1, appointed 8', then by all means amend the table and add that as a source. Also, there are nine appointed members listed now, which makes it a bit confusing. Is the remaining 1 'other' seat an appointed Tsong member? Number 57 14:21, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

I think you misunderstood my last reply. Anyway, I've added the reference and fixed the inconsistencies in the article. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:24, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Seppa East (Vidhan Sabha constituency), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National People's Party. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:00, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

For info

Hi MPGuy. For your info, following comments on Nsjkwl's talkpage about Craig Lewis (Ireland cricketer), there's this ongoing SPI report. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 09:48, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I've added that SPI page to my watchlist. I'll read about sockpuppet investigations a bit more. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:59, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Manjhipur

Hi MPGuy and welcome to new page review. This is a reply to your message to me at User talk:Yashasvi Singh Saini regarding Manjhipur. At Articles for Creation, the threshold we apply is "Articles that will probably survive a listing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion should be accepted. Articles that will probably not survive should be declined." I accepted the draft because I do not believe it would be deleted at AfD. Why do I believe that? Because WP:GEOLAND says "populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low" and WP:NPLACE says "cities and villages anywhere in the world are generally kept, regardless of size or length of existence, as long as that existence can be verified through a reliable source." For this village, are there reliable sources that confirm that Manjhipur exists? Yes, there are. A Google search returns maps and census data. Is it possible to verify that the place exists? Yes. So the remaining issue is that the state of the referencing in the article should be improved. That's not an AfC task, but the tagging should be done by New Pages Patrol. As well as tagging, you can use the NPP curation toolbar to leave a message for the author with suggestions for improvement. As you've already identified a reliable source that could be added to the article I think the quickest thing to do is to add that reference yourself. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 07:57, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

All right, i understand. Hopefully the creator (or someone else) does add a good reference. I added a suggestion to Yashasvi (along with the message to you) on their talk page. Cheers. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:05, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Tripura East Mon Sabha

Dear MPguy Pls revert back to original form by removing your edits Wherever I am doing something you are following upto there and removing it You did it for Shillong and Kishanganj Lol Sabha pages also Stop your madness Asianchamp2 (talk) 11:32, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

@Asianchamp2: I'll assume you meant Tripura East (Lok Sabha constituency). I tried to initiate a conversation with you on your talk page, but if you are more comfortable on my talk page, that's fine with me. To reiterate (and add to) my points :

1. Please don't add the column "Leading in 2019". I don't think it adds anything to that particular page beyond what is already available about the LS constituency election results for 2019. At least the ones where I removed that column didn't even have a source. Instead adding a sourced value for the electorate as of the last election (LS or VS/LA) might be more helpful.
2. Try to add the whole party's name instead of just the short form. Another editor usually has to come and clean that up after you. Lately, you have been getting some Disambiguation link notification on your talk page about this.
3. There is no good reason to limit the width of the table, or set a column as wider than it would be. This just makes the table longer than needed on most screens and hence decreases the readability. Although, sometimes setting some (lesser-important) columns (e.g. Constituency number) shorter than it would be by default, helps to make the table more readable.
4. If you could separate the party from its colors, it would be great. I've done this at Kishanganj (Lok Sabha constituency), if you want to take a look.
5. To end, you can revert(undo) any of my edits, if you feel they are not improving Wikipedia. Please read WP:3RR though. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:08, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
