Hi, I was wondering if you deliberately only created two of the the redirects from this request (i.e. declined the rest) or if just didn't get to creating the rest? Andumé (talk) 16:16, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

@I Am Andumé : thanks for reaching out! I honestly didn't have time or energy to research all the terms and the redirects' validity, so I left it on hold. I'll look into the rest tomorrow if they haven't been accepted yet. NotAGenious (talk) 18:49, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the explanation, I might take a look at them. I didn't want to do anything with them without first hearing your rationale behind not creating them. Andumé (talk) 19:34, 29 December 2023 (UTC)

Lapland Chamber Orchestra moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Lapland Chamber Orchestra. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:46, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi, sorry to do this to a fellow new page reviewer (!), but I came across this article during this month's backlog drive, and didn't think it would have been right to accept it as the sources simply aren't there. First I thought no problem, I'll just find more and better sources and add them myself – should be easy enough, for a 50-year-old orchestra, right? Wrong; couldn't find anything. So I moved this to drafts, hoping that you will be able to find the missing sources, or otherwise prove this is notable. Cheers, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 15:52, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing : I purposefully didn't include every source as these can be very easily found with a simple BEFORE. More YLE including a credible claim of significance for being nominated for Gramophone Classical Music Awards (satisfies WP:BAND #8 alone though not specifically mentioned there (also John Storgårds for #6 as Outi Tarkiainen has been heavily involved with her concerto Polar Pearls, not sure though as she isn't an official member)), Hesari review, Hesari news, more Hesari, never heard of Kuukkeli before and unsure about reliability but seems significant local coverage, two pages here that aren't digitalized though. I've moved the page back. If you disagree, take to AfD. Hyvää uuttavuotta, NotAGenious (talk) 18:11, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

@NotAGenious: okay, so I guess it's fair to assume you weren't too pleased with that. ;)

I wasn't saying you should include every source, but is it unreasonable to expect that you would at least include enough sources to clearly establish notability, without the reviewer/reader having to go hunting for them? As a fellow NPR/AfC reviewer, I would have thought you, if anyone, would appreciate that's a fairly basic premise of article creation.

But whatevs, this isn't a hill I'm intending to die on tonight, so I'll drop the stick. Don't be too surprised, though, if another reviewer raises the same concern.

Hyvää uutta vuotta myös itsellesi! -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 18:55, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

Not unreasonable at all; I think I was rather confused on how this coverage didn't pop up on your search results. This was also my first article from a while go that I forgot about - I've surely grown to appreciate present GNG-establishing sources present in the article. I appreciate the message you sent though. Either way, do you think the sources above are good enough for inclusion? I'm prepping an edit to add them and expand a bit too. NotAGenious (talk) 19:03, 1 January 2024 (UTC)

@DoubleGrazing : sorry for my impolite response to your original post. Also, the refs are now there if you still want the review. NotAGenious (talk) 09:59, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Question from Thumanator4 on Language attitudes (11:20, 3 January 2024)

Hello my name is Nathan Thuma. I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. What is the most interesting/unbelievable topic you have researched/found on wikipedia? --Thumanator4 (talk) 11:20, 3 January 2024 (UTC)

@Thumanator4 : hello and welcome! I don't know; there's certainly a lot of knowledge here to explore. I just found Cicada 3301 which is interesting for sure. NotAGenious (talk) 15:57, 4 January 2024 (UTC)

India–Montenegro relations

FYI, you placed a speedy deletion tag on India–Montenegro relations as it was just a link to an external mirror of Wikipedia, hosting a copy of a subsequently-deleted Wikipedia article. The article had been previously deleted pursuant to a proposed deletion. I have interpreted the act of linking to an off-wiki copy of the article as an attempt to contest the proposed deletion and so I have restored the original article. If you would like to nominate the article for deletion, please feel free to do so at WP:AFD. --B (talk) 18:54, 5 January 2024 (UTC)
