Draft: MGP Live

Hi AngusWOOF, thank you for your helpful feedback for the draft of the MGP Live article that I have worked on. I made a number of edits in order to improve the content of the page and make it more neutral and acceptable as a Wikipedia entry. Although I am not paid, the founder of MGP Live is a personal friend of mine, and I have now disclosed that in the article heading as well. Could you take a look at the progress that I have made and let me know what your thoughts are? If there is something else that you would suggest to improve this article? Draft:MGP_Live

Please let me know, I would like to resubmit the article for consideration. Thank you very much for your help!

Sunstone23, I'm trying to find some sources that cover the company in detail, not just that there's an news article about an event produced by MGP Live. See WP:ORGCRIT AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:43, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your help AngusWOOF, I found this article from iItaly Magazine that covers Massimo Gallotta. I looked through those guidelines you shared and it seems like the articles cited in the draft are more in-depth than "a single-sentence mention in an article about another company". For example, The Daily Star article has around 7 paragraphs about Massimo Gallotta's career and contribution to Assassin's Creed Symphony. This article from Financial Times also goes more in-depth into Massimo Gallotta's history. Sunstone23 (talk) 23:45, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Sunstone23, I'll post your three on the AFC review section of the draft so others can see. Please heed other AFC reviewers comments as well. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:08, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you for your help AngusWOOF, I appreciate it! Sunstone23 (talk) 17:52, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

  • Draft:Joey Gonzalez (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi, thanks for reviewing the Joey Gonzalez page. So when the last reviewer rejected the page, he emphasized the need for reliable sources that establish notability, which I certainly understand. He also said it's ok to include those non-notability sort of sources. Can you please let me know if any of the current sources on this page count toward notability? I know you asked me to provide three. I guess what I'm struggling with is that the subject has been written about in major publications and has indeed been the subject of many of those articles. Additionally, he has received significant coverage. So obviusly the mistake falls on me. I'm just trying to figure out what it is I'm doing wrong so I can fix it. Many thanks for your guidance. Djb2183 (talk) 17:16, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Djb2183 (talk) 17:16, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Djb2183, so you can list the major publications that cover Gonzalez's life and career? Make sure they're not mainly Q&A interviews. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:41, 27 March 2020 (UTC)

Hi, sorry for the delay. I know you asked for three, but was hoping you could take a look at these four, as they all seem suitable, and I just want to make sure I'm doing this right.. It's Men's Health, People, the Evening Standard, and the Los Angeles Blade.

Thanks again for all of your help. Djb2183 (talk) 14:08, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Djb2183, thanks, I'll put them on the AFC reviewing section so other AFC reviewers can see. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:33, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Cool, many thanks. So what are the next steps? Should I edit the article at all, or do I need to do anything? Or do I get notified? Djb2183 (talk) 14:36, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

You could ask GPL93 to review these sources and see if they're better than the previous batch presented. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:42, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

Oh wow, I somehow missed this message. I'll go ahead and ask them to do so now. Many thanks. Djb2183 (talk) 14:02, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi, the reviewer is not responding to the message I left on his talk page. Do I re-submit the page for review? Not sure what the best way to go about this is. Sorry for the delay. Many thanks. Djb2183 (talk) 13:41, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Djb2183, you could resubmit, but it still reads to me like a resume, and not much of a biography on the subject. If there's something you can do to neutralize the tone so it isn't promotional, that would be helpful. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:08, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for this. I hadn't edited the article at all, only added the three major sources. But I just went ahead and neutralized the tone of the article, and I'll re-submit now. Many thanks. Djb2183 (talk) 15:23, 17 April 2020 (UTC)

Draft:Basketball_IQ

@AngusWOOF: Hi AngusWOOF and many thanks for your contribution at the Draft Basketball IQ. I will edit again the article, enhance it with more resources, and re-submit it in order to try to comply with Wikipedia Guidelines. Just to give a summary: Basketball IQ is a term widely used by Coaches, players, fans and journalists. Though there is no defined any metric on this. Which I'm giving via my proposal. This is the essence of the article. And maybe can answer to your comment that ' I'm pretty sure this isn't this specific metric when coaches say their player has a high basketball IQ'. You are right that this isn't exactly what coaches say. Though it's an attempt to quantify that. Kindly let me know your view! Many thanks again. Polizois77 (talk) 12:03, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

Polizois77, the term itself may be popular but it is NOT the specific metric as outlined in that draft article, which reads like original research. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:14, 8 April 2020 (UTC)

@AngusWOOF: Hi! I have resubmitted the page according to comments. So, I have altered the structure, enhanced the content, and added reliable references. Kindly re-check. Thanks.Polizois77 (talk) 22:05, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

trying to add an additional source (magazine) but edit feature no longer appears

hi Angus. why can't I edit \ work? Fulber (talk) 22:27, 9 April 2020 (UTC)

it looks as if Wikipedia is on lockdown...can only edit an intro.

can you please direct me to somebody else in the music industry that can do the next review? Fulber (talk) 14:20, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Did you talk with Sulfurboy? He reviewed your article. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:25, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Fulber, Did you not see the comment I left about issues with the sources? You cannot just list an issue of a magazine as a source, we need page number/author/title of the article etc. for verification purposes. Please see WP:REFB Sulfurboy (talk) 22:46, 11 April 2020 (UTC)

I didn't see that yet. thanks Angus. I included issue numbers and page numbers of all magazine articles aside from one I think.

AngusWoof can you please help me get this project done? I really appreciate your help. can you review it next time? I'll look up the names of the Journalists for each magazine article in the meantime. ☺ Fulber (talk) 18:26, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

o k Angus & Sulfur, I've worked on the references all day and even came across a new one. is it good to go? thanks so much for your help...sorry I'm such a slow learner. Fulber (talk) 02:25, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

how about now? ☺ Fulber (talk) 20:56, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

4kids winx

Hello Anguswoof, do you know why a lot information is moved about the fox version of Winx on Wikipedia articles? 4kids don't show specific role's in the credits. It is also strange that some cast members have any know who works on the show but some cast members not. Carol and Veronica they have no idea who works on the show but Gregory and Erica know a bit. That'said why I don'the believe that Caren is Stella. Also her voice is pretty similar to Darcy but not Stella and Chatta. 4kids don't dub s4. Cutting room think that. Amy palant was Mirta. I add some info at S1 page.--Maxie1hoi (talk) 19:43, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

Maxie1hoi, a lot of the English voices were removed from the main page and the characters list. Only the Nick dubs ones were relevant to keep since they produced and premiered English dub episodes for those seasons. You'll have to argue with the other editors that decided that. As for Caren voicing Stella, she still maintains that on her writeup from Cutting Room. It probably doesn't matter except on her own page, and the only thing that can really be confirmed is that she voiced in the 4Kids dubs for the show. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:25, 12 April 2020 (UTC)

okay, but in the cutting room nyc they wrote '4 seasons' but fox TV only made season 1-2-3. For Mirta as far as I know it was Amy Palant.--Maxie1hoi (talk) 07:22, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Yes, they can be wrong in the number of seasons. 4Kids only made 3. I agree with that. As for Amy Palant, she's a 4Kids voice, but not credited in any of the closing seasons 1-3 credits, see [1] Please don't waste any more time on Stella / Darcy. That's been discussed ad nauseum. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 09:43, 13 April 2020 (UTC) some people are not famous from this cast : Su Meredith, Dani Schaffel, Grace Shepard, Mary Stout. It is also unknown why and how 4kids got delete scenes from Rainbow and how they made graphics and scenes. Example: episode 5, Winx girls walking into the kitchen room. Stella has a magic glitter ball, episode 2.--Maxie1hoi (talk) 16:07, 13 April 2020 (UTC)

Draft: Dog Puller

Hi! I did my best to make Draft:Dog Puller better, shortened the rules sections, added international clubs and more information about history and nature of the sport. Can you please re-review it? AnimaloverUA (talk) 11:19, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Alihan Demir

Hello, can yolu please reconsider the article about Alihan Demir. He is quite famous and notable in TURKEY and all agencies ask for his Wikipedia page. He played Minnesota Golden Gophers for this year and He will play in Eurocup or Euroleague next season. Lots of NCAA players have Wikipedia articles even if they have not drafted for NBA or have any notable success in their career. Thanks in advance.

Request for review of resubmission of Draft:RouteRANK

Hello, I wanted to thank you for taking the time to review an early draft of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:RouteRANK. The result of your review was as follows: Comment: More chemical companies WP:SOLUTION AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:21, 17 January 2020 (UTC). I believe related to the usage of the wording of solutions rather than software. My colleague also added additional references and articles to sustain the quality of the draft. I was wondering whether the resubmission could be reviewed to see if it is up to par or if additional changes are required.

Thanks in advance!! Maximevondermuhll (talk) 14:49, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

Please help me resubmit corrected article

I had some time this weekend to proofread the draft article at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:John_McNamara_(sportswriter). It was declined with comments. The instructions say to edit using the EDIT tab. There is no edit tab left to accomplish the corrections requested. I believe I shouldn't be seeming to simply resubmit rejected articles. Can you please help me find the page to edit; or do I need to re-start?

Thanks. Acham (talk) 12:59, 19 April 2020 (UTC)

Acham, it looks like it's been resubmitted, so AFC reviewers can take a look and see if it's improved. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:56, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

New article: Maharashtra Prohibition of Ragging Act, 1999

Hi Angus, Thanks for reviewing my draft of the Maharashtra Prohibition of Ragging Act. I am trying to understand your reason for declining it. There is plenty more content that could be added about the law, about its implementation, controversies, numerous cases that have been filed under the statute. I was thinking of adding the stub designation. Would you recommend adding more to it? If so, what sections/topics should be added? If you do feel quite strongly that there isn't enough there for a standalone article, I wonder why you think it should be merged with the article on Ragging? It doesn't make sense to me logically to merge an act of law prohibiting ragging into the article on ragging, as it is not really a sub-category of ragging itself. Prohibition in the United States (besides having its own page) is most fully discussed under Alcohol law not Alcoholic beverages -- the thing it prohibits. If anything, there could be a more general article on Anti-Ragging Legislation in India (of which there is a lot), or maybe it would make sense to add it to Anti-bullying_legislation. Thanks again for your help!Kkavita (talk) 06:29, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Ragging in India has a sizeable section there in the Ragging article, and it includes several legislative acts prohibiting it, so that would be the appropriate place for it. It also covers multiple pieces of legislation such as 2009, so it isn't restricted to just the 1999 act. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 06:33, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

Voice actors in Persona 5

I am trying to cite reliable pages on Behind The Voice Actors for voice actors in Persona 5, but someone by the name of Dissident93 has been persistently and disruptively vandalizing them for a reason. They need to be blocked to prevent future edit wars. We should talk on these pages along with Sjones23 and UltraDark. Homechallenge55 (talk) 21:33, 20 April 2020 (UTC)

• So you have time to go around asking multiple people for me to be blocked (for no valid reason, as I reverted for good reason nor did I start an edit war) yet you won't take the time to participate at WT:VG/RS, where the site's reliability is in question? I even see on your talk page that you were warned about your use of the site as far back as 2016, yet clearly that made little effect. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk)

I replied on the WP:VG/RS thread. The BTVA for Persona 5: Royal (2020) https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/video-games/Persona-5-Royal/ has a bunch of green checkmarks that point to screenshots of the closing credits. If you don't trust that BTVA got it right, you would replace it with {{cite video game}} and it would be the same listing. If green checkmarks point to resumes / tweets, then treat it like WP:SELFPUB or replace with the actual tweet / resume. Note that Persona 5: The Animation https://www.behindthevoiceactors.com/tv-shows/Persona-5-The-Animation/ does not have any green checkmarks so no screenshots, so not reliable for that.

Ron Britton article draft

Hi there, thanks for your feedback on my draft of an article on psychoanalyst Ron Britton. One of the things you said when rejecting the first submission was: 'The early life and education section is completely unsourced and seems to be copy-pasted or closely paraphrased from somewhere.' First of all, I can promise that it is not copy-pasted from anywhere - I was provided with the bare-bones facts and then wrote it from scratch. I am also finding it impossible to track down online sources for Britton's schooling, training, army service etc., and am not sure what to do. Part of it is that he is a psychoanalyst, and they tend to keep very low public profiles (so their patients can't find out too much about them!). I've also looked at quite a lot of Wikipedia articles to see how they've covered their subjects' early lives, career details and so on, and lots of them are unsourced, so I'm a bit confused as to why this situation is different. I would really appreciate any help you could give me on this!

Fatbookreader (talk) 14:11, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Fatbookreader, where are you getting the bare bones facts from? If it's from Britton or his family directly, then that's not going to help. Each of the lines should be sourced to some reference that others can look up, whether it be a news article or published book. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:24, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

Seeking advice on how to improve 9b9t article

Hello Angus,

Thank you for your input regarding my article. So that I can best improve, are you suggesting I mention similar servers, like 4b4t and Constantiam?

A major roadblock I've encountered is a lack of external news sources regarding 9b9t. For this, I have two possible remedies, both of which I am uncertain about. 1) I'm considering using the official 9b9t Discord and 2) myself, I consider myself a primary source [having played on the server for just under a year]. Would either of these be up to Wikipedia's standards?

Thank you so much, TheSaucyPizza TheSaucyPizza (talk) 19:13, 23 April 2020 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheSaucyPizza (talk • contribs) 23:04, 22 April 2020 (UTC)

TheSaucyPizza, please try to find more external news sources. Some of the articles listed have bare coverage of the server, but it would be good if there were more of those and in depth. I would avoid using your own findings from being in the game itself. Also, asking the staff there for information and sharing that might be a conflict of interest.

Credits dump

What is "credits dump" on Articles for Deletion you usually mentioned? CuteDolphin712 (talk) 08:47, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

CuteDolphin712, credits dump is where most of the article is just a bunch of usually unsourced credits that you could find on IMDb, and doesn't show the significance of the person. It's important that you show how the actor or director was worked on significant roles in significant productions using external news sources, and not just list every possible thing they have been in.

Rejection of Article

Hi AngusWOOF This is regarding Balipa Narayana Bhagawat article I submitted. In fact, I have not created this article as a promotional purpose or keeping that in mind. He is a renowned person in the Yakshagana field and people are surprised why he is not figuring out in Wikipedia. I can relook at the article but could you please give some hints and I can make that happen?

Regards ngholla1968 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ngholla1968 (talk • contribs) 16:30, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Ngholla1968, see the Identifying blatant advertising writeup WP:IBA. Draft:Balipa Narayana Bhagawat shouldn't have stuff like "over 60 years in the profession". It needs to use more common terminology as "Bhagawatha" is not defined. It's not clear what he is a leader in, a religious sect, or an organization? Why is there detail on Bhagawathike? Did he coin that term? That wouldn't make sense since Bhagawathike is over 700 years old. Should that detail be in Yakshagana instead? The awards section just has a bunch of localized awards, and doesn't show which awards are nationally notable or have Wikipedia pages on their own. It should not have bragging phrases like "much respected" or "honored with" or "legendary". AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:54, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Your review

Good evening AngusWOOF

1292simon gave me the tip for Sayonara Player entry to focus on how references and texts are done in Audacious article. I don't have any further idea than including all these independent and reliable sources (linux magazine, linuxlinks.com, itsfoss). Could you please help me: Which areas in the article are still like a website copy? I oriented that much in all these other articles in Comparison of audio player software and they are almost the same, sometimes even without reliable references (like musikcube without any or JuK with less than Sayonara has already).

Could you also help me how to include the logo of the Player?

Kind regards

Dominic2105, it's the bullet list of features that makes it really look like an advertising brochure. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:46, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Thank you, I appreciate your specific insight. No offense, but anyway I still have some difficulties to see, where I made a mistake and others did not? Just comparing with Songbird (software), XMMS and Guayadeque Music Player. Further articles (in addition to the three mentioned before) also have these lists in minor topics like plugins: Winamp, Rhythmbox and especially Audacious (software). Kindly allow me to ask where I could see the difference? Dominic2105 (talk) 21:40, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

Dominic2105, if you can list out your best WP:THREE sources and point AFC reviewers to those, then that might help. Other reviewers might have a different opinion on the bullet list. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:44, 27 April 2020 (UTC)

AngusWOOF, thanks a lot once more. It's a good hint, even if in WP:THREE it was a lot of English text and I have some difficulties with it (my native language is German, so for sure my English is only "school level"). I'll try to adjust the references list by just deleting some of those references, because at least three good sources are in it. May you stay healthy. Dominic2105 (talk) 21:54, 27 April 2020 (UTC)
