Thanks for taking a look at our js13kgames article. I removed the external links as you recommended! Let me know if there is anything else we can do to speed up the process. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Slackluster (talk • contribs) 15:09, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Talk page "fix"

Hello, can you explain this? Is this something that would still happen with the current bot code? ~~~~

@1234qwer1234qwer4: Hi there! It appears that {{WikiProject Boxing}} was missing a right parenthesis. BattyBot 21 would now skip the article because the page already {{WikiProjectBannerShell}}. GoingBatty (talk) 19:20, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, thanks! ~~~~

LokiOttawa

Hi there...I am looking for advice on moving forward with one of the experts for simple easily verifiable changes. The Stan Shaffer book I referred to was JUST pictures and that is in the credits. Not even his book publisher, world renown TeNeues was allowed to see what he had written. Certainly not me. There are so many other easily sourced and second partied items that I have mentioned and many are in public domain on the internet. I need an IT specialist perhaps. I suspect I am not in your age group and did not grow up with computers. Tatler magazine has asked me for a second interview. They have done one a decade ago which is referenced in my page. Incidentally I did not start my page and have no idea who did. I appreciate it but there is much left out. For e.g. I was nominated for best actress by the Saturns in the 90's. Easily found. My show actually won emmys. Again that can be sourced. Does wiki have anyone available to work on this? Regards LokiOttawa (talk) 11:43, 26 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@LokiOttawa: Hi there! When you start a new post on the Help desk or a user's talk page, please mention the Wikipedia article you're referring to. It took me some research to determine that you're referring to the Louise Robey article. You can look at my user page to get an idea of my age group if you want, but it is not relevant to my editing here. Composing information for a Wikipedia article has more in common with a school term paper than computers: gathering published reliable sources and summarizing/paraphrasing what they say. Since you have a conflict of interest (COI) with the Wikipedia article about you, you should not be editing it directly. Instead, you can declare your COI on your user page and submit suggestions for improving the article on the article's talk page: Talk:Louise Robey with the {{request edit}} template, which will get the attention of interested volunteer editors. Or, you may use the simpler Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard, which is more user friendly for those who are not IT specialists. If you have independent reliable published sources to provide, please do so. The Television Academy website indicates that Friday the 13th: The Series was nominated for Emmys for graphic design and visual effects, which is relevant for the article about the series, but not the article about you. The Saturn Award nomination would be a great addition (with a source), and something you may request. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 04:18, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GoingBatty I have put in a word with LouiseRobey talk as suggested asking for editors to help. As for those directors I understand won emmys for my show, it was always a group effort so it affects me and my show. I won an award in Spain in the 90's but forget what it is. I was flown to Madrid 1st class from LA and it was televised. I was on stage and that's all I know. So many other stories. I shall do 2 more interviews with accredited journalists shortly. I hope that helps. Thanks Louise Robey LokiOttawa (talk) 12:39, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@LokiOttawa: Hi again! For things that are "so easily verifiable", I suggest you provide the reliable sources that will be needed to add the information to the article. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 12:43, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GoingBatty I await with baited breath any editors who might help to accredit any sources. That I hope is the way to proceed and also two interviews with magazines and online should be a start. As for being engaged to Stan Shaffer I don't have any sources for that. Best Louise Robey.LokiOttawa (talk) 08:30, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:The Amazing Chan and the Chan Clan.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:58, 2 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The main article uses this pic from: https://www.bcdb.com/cartoons/Hanna-Barbera_Studios/A-C/The_Amazing_Chan_and_the_Chan_Clan/ The Chan article is a 1950's- 60's children's tv cartoon show. It was on for one season then released decades-later on MOD DVD. The total audience would probably be rather small but the article seems to need a picture, one, at least for the benefit of younger readers. I'm just throwing this in as an option, in case an option is needed, don't know how things are working out for the above ^^. Missbellanash (talk) 00:34, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Protocol for editing information where you are the subject

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Nicholson

I am the subject of this page. I didn't create it but when I saw it in July, there were some errors, so I made some edits. But I didn't realise that the protocol was not to edit article information where you are the subject. Can you please advise if I should undo the edits I made?

thanks, Ann — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ausaen (talk • contribs) 02:05, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Ausaen: Thanks for reaching out. I reviewed the edit you made, and don't see any benefit in reverting it. If you want further updates to the article, you may declare your conflict of interest on your user page, and post on Talk:Ann Nicholson with the {{request edit}} template - or use the Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard. Thanks for asking, and happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 14:54, 3 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the prompt response and advice, I’ll follow that protocol if I make future edits. Best, Ann Ausaen (talk) 18:07, 6 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 19:11:59, 4 October 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Transcender.beyond


Hello mate,

the best source for metal in my view is metal-archives.com, though this is a user-made encyclopaedia. Additional sources for this album include: https://metalitalia.com/album/doomsword-the-eternal-battle/ https://genius.com/Doomsword-eternal-battle-lyrics https://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/54197/Doomsword-The-Eternal-Battle/ https://www.discogs.com/master/1542904-DoomSword-The-Eternal-Battle

In terms of notability, there are articles for every other DS album, they're a significant enough band

Are these good enough? If so, can the article be re-launched? thanks

Transcender.beyond (talk) 19:11, 4 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Transcender.beyond: The notability for an album cannot be inherited from the band or their other albums - see WP:NALBUMS. Also, the notability of the band is in question, as the Doomsword article has no independent sources. Three of the four album articles have no sources at all. Maybe you can find reliable sources that provide significant coverage for these articles as well. WP:RSPSOURCES states "Song lyrics, annotations and descriptions on Genius are mostly user-generated content and are thus generally unreliable." An archived discussion about Discogs states the same issue. The album review articles you provided are better. You may improve the draft and resubmit it if you like. Happy editing!

Why me...! Missbellanash (talk) 00:09, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Missbellanash: Hi there! Looks like you meant to use {{reply to}} (or one of its redirects, like {{ping}}, not {{talkback}}. GoingBatty (talk) 00:41, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Probably. This software does things it - shouldn't. Thanks! Missbellanash (talk) 00:52, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The script

GB, thank you so much for fixing those glitches. I don't want to put you to this trouble any more. Ohconfucius says it due to script stalling during the edits, due to "server lag". I wonder why this has just begun to occur. And if I'm to continue using the script, I'll need to work out what to avoid when inspecting the diffs. Tony (talk) 22:32, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Tony1: I don't think "this has just begun to occur", as your edits were from 2018, 2019, and 2020 (e.g. this edit from 2018). Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 22:37, 8 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
