The Lives of Winston Churchill and Alfred Milner

Original Research (OR): I reviewed the above article on OR and believe you may be mistaken. It is cited by 24 references and 35 footnotes, and wherever possible linked to the Internet Archive. Every bit of it is credible. Please refresh yourself with wikipedia's original research policy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research My pseudonym: I am not related to Alfred Milner in any way, and the article shows no bias. We share the same last name, and if there is a family connection, is over two centuries old. Sincerely, Lord Milner (talk) 11:25, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Never claimed you had a COI, but there are numerous examples of WP:SYNTH. Just one example is the line about them both being workaholics. That may indeed be true, but I doubt either of the sources referenced states that both of them were. More likely one states Milner was and the other that Churchill was, and you've synthesized the conclusion that they both were. That's original research. And the article is full of examples like that. Further down in that section, there is a paragraph which starts out colleagues, which is both uncited, and again is full of SYNTH. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 11:52, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Under construction

Thanks for explaining your intervention and quick followup on Adam Clark Vroman. After your suggestion, I chose the Under construction template as better suited to what I anticipate will happen next. (This was sparked by my husband's indignation at A.C. Vroman not having a page in English besides his undeniably notable bookstore. On my part it was procrastination thinly disguised by an intellectual exercise: first use of the WP Translation tool in a mainspace article, first CS:EN translation via GoogleTranslate (as that pair isn't supported inside WP). Vroman the man does have well-established notability per his Wikidata item (with four dozen identifiers!). Some suggestions for further work are listed on the Talk page. A tribute to my former hometown, Los Angeles. Cheers! -- Deborahjay (talk) 13:12, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, yes, I should have mentioned the under construction template as an alternative. But you'll need 3 references which go in-depth about him from independent, reliable sources to show he meets notability criteria. Also, I removed a few of the links you had in the External links section. If a site has an official website, then their social media sites should not also be included. When you're done, if you want me to take another look, feel free to ping me. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:29, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

🙄

I can't believe all the effort you put into throwing my translation work away instead of looking up… what, you wanted *one* more reference? That would've been easily found. But you clearly didn't even try. It honestly blows my mind how much time it seems to me you'd rather spend trying to delete stuff than actually help improve an article, which would have taken far less time. Anyway now we finally have an article — that is an actual contribution to Wikipedia. Thanks for nothing! Excelsiorsbanjo (talk) 16:20, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea what you're talking about. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:26, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to discuss Silver Crane

Good morning @Onel5969,

I would like to invite you to observe the Talk:Emilis_Vėlyvis#Silver_Crane_award_effect_on_notability discussion. Thank you, Sincerely yours, Tom Ttk371 (talk) 17:07, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I already have. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 17:10, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copyvio accusation on Bruno Platter

Good afternoon, I noticed that you redirected the article on Bruno Platter and copyvio-ed all of my revisions on the article. There was no plagiarism on the article and I actually reworded numerous phrases in the article (the original versions are probably more infringing than my revisions). IIRC, there were around 8 sources on said article spread throughout the article, many of them being used on other language Wikipedias. As such I believe that you are mistaken in claiming that these edits violated copyright. Knightoftheswords281 (talk) 22:28, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, there was, which was checked by an admin, who revdel'd the edits. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 22:35, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

TWD characters

Hello again Onel. Hope you are keeping well! I’ve noticed lately that there was quite a few articles created for minor characters in The Walking Dead recently e.g. Dante, who I can’t even remember. I think there are far too many articles already for TWD characters, and adding these insignificant, minor characters into the mix isn’t necessary imo. AfD??? The Optimistic One (talk) 23:32, 1 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Always a pleasure. Don't know how successful an AfD would be. There are a concerted cadre of editors who will !vote keep just because they are fans of the show (and when I say, I'm saying regardless of which show the character is from). And you will always find references in trade magazines which deal with recaps of episodes. Like the Dante article you reference, the two best in-depth coverage, from Forbes.com and insider.com are non-reliable sources, and the other 3 are simply dealing with in-universe stuff. But I'm in the minority, I think. I like to look at WP as an actual encyclopedia, and not just another wiki. Personally, I don't think any fictional character should have an article unless there is scholarly academic material which goes in-depth about them. To me, the Dante article doesn't come close to showing real-world notability. No one's going to remember many, if any of the characters on TWD 20 years from now. Sorry, didn't mean to go on like that, but I made an attempt a couple of years ago to push back on some of these types of articles, and got weary of the struggle.

Candied carrots

I added an article from the LA Times "Glaze me a carrot" for the Glazed carrots article will that be ok for notability? Yaksmarrow (talk) 09:20, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Lodz city VS Expo 2024

I don't understand why the Expo 2024 page would redirect to the Polish city of Lodz. There is no such event as Expo 2024.

Since I am unable to delete that redirect page, I simply removed the redirect. If you know how to do it, could you delete the Expo 2024 page? Cheers Nyoome
