Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of feature films with LGBT characters

Hello! Advising the project of this AfD which may be of interest to members of the project. Thanks. Talib1101 (talk) 02:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Misandry

There seems to be a certain lack of consensus at Misandry. So I am asking interested editors at all related wikiprojects if they would care to help in some consensus building. Though editors should be aware that this topic can be divisive. Talpedia (talk) 16:48, 10 March 2022 (UTC)

FAR for H.D.

I have nominated H.D. for a Featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" the article's featured status. I am sorry for the clumsy notification, its my first nomination for a FAR. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 08:19, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

User script to detect unreliable sources

Main page: User:Headbomb/unreliable

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

• John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Help with new page The "Mighty Girl" Effect?

I just made https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:The_%22Mighty_Girl%22_Effect because it seems to be a documented scientifically proven phenomenon with no wikipedia article. I have no idea how to get it attached to other gender studies/feminism articles on Wikipedia. Help please? Oathed (talk) 14:45, 8 May 2022 (UTC)

Invitation to look at redactive/reverting edits

I am a former professor, now involved in startup buainesses. I occasionally edit out of WP retirement when I turn to a WP article for added sources and context, from a mainstream business news sourse.

Today, after being informed of a Spotify-related article in the NYT, I turned to the Call Her Daddy podcast article, and noticed both its datedness, and earlier removal of content that I thought well-sourced and substantive. Because the content that was removed related to varying views about whether the content and aims of the podcast align with some form of feminism, I raise the propriety of those edits here.

Specifically, after my first edit to return some of the inappropriately removed earlier content — wherein I added only a single well-sourced sentence regarding the former owner-distributors of the program in question — that edit, and indeed, its entire section were deleted.

Here are the two diffs that are relevant.

1, and

2.

The original edit regarding feminism and misogyny was removed, ostensibly because it was seen as "mostly conjecture and WP:UNDUE" (with which I disagree, largely). The return of one sentece of it today was removed (along with rest of section), because it was stated that reputable discussion of the attitudes and mores of the owner-distributor of the podcast were not relevant (again, a perspective with which I disagree).

I propose that the removed content be evaluated by several here, and the initiative be taken from this Project to evaluate what of the original content is worth fighting to have remain.

Note, the overall positivity of the article with regard to the podcast content, the removal of original content questioning the feminist bona fides of the program, and the rapidity with which my attempts at scholarly additional edits were identified and reverted, suggest the possibility that this article might have devoted editors committed to maintaining the current limited scope and perspective of the article.

Note, I edit intentionally from IP, which also may be the reason for the very rapid attention and reversion of these edits. (I will not return to logged editing, because of the various forms of bias and trolling that can take place here, I am least concerned that someone trace me via IP to Chicago, or whatever city I am currently visiting.) With regard/cheers. 2601:246:C700:558:2584:8D15:B064:AD34 (talk) 17:03, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
