Wikipedia:Article Rescue Squadron – Rescue list

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Wikipedia:RESCUELIST)


ARS Code of Conduct
  • Note that this wikiproject is only intended to improve the encyclopedia. The project is not about casting votes or vote-stacking. Be sure to follow the guideline on canvassing. This means, in part, that you should use Template:Rescue list on the deletion discussion page when you list the discussion here.
  • Focus on improving content. For example, when working on an article listed for rescue, try to qualify topic notability by adding reliable-source references with significant coverage of the topic. Edit the content to address specific concerns raised in the AfD discussion.
  • Show the light. If you comment in an AfD discussion, try to describe points in the nomination that have been corrected. Note any remaining deficiencies (e.g. lack of organization, structural problems, lack of balance, etc.). Base comments upon Wikipedia's deletion policy. If an article has been rewritten, you may place a comment in the AfD as a courtesy to assist the closing admin in determining which article version others were referring to.
For more information about article rescue, please refer to ARS Tips to help rescue articles and ARS Rescue guide

This is a list and discussion of Wikipedia content for rescue consideration. When posting here, please be sure to:

  • First familiarize yourself with Wikipedia's guidelines for topic notability and identifying reliable sources, as well as the prohibition on inappropriate canvassing
  • Include a specific rationale why the article/content should be retained on Wikipedia, and any ideas to improve the content. Please ensure that your comment here is neutrally worded. (You can also !vote to delete an article at its deletion discussion because you think it is untenable in its present state, and still list it here in the hope that another editor will find a way to improve it and save it.)
  • You should disclose in a deletion discussion that a post has been made at the rescue list.
  • Sign posts with four tildes ~~~~.
  • Place the {{subst:rescue list|~~~~}} template in Articles for deletion discussions, to notify editors about the listing here. The tag can be placed below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

The following templates can be used for articles listed here:

  • *{{Find sources|Article name}} - Adds source search options
  • *{{lagafd|Article name}} - Adds relevant links
  • *{{lagafd|Article name|Article name (2nd nomination)}} - Likewise but for page nominated twice
  • *{{lagafd|Article name|Article name (3rd nomination)}} - Likewise but for page nominated 3 times
  • *{{lagafd|Article name|Article name (Nth nomination)}} - Likewise but for page nominated N ≥ 4 times



ATTENTION! Go to https://wikipedialibrary.wmflabs.org/ to apply for access to multiple databases to search for sources to help save and improve articles.

There is a Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Cal Horton discussion of transgender studies scholar Cal Horton. I believe they easily pass NACADEMIC as I've pointed out and have added more sources to the article. Raladic (talk) 15:38, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

William Wyckoff was recently nominated for deletion. I would appreciate any help with sourcing his books. I believe he meets notability as an author. Thriley (talk) 13:11, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a deletion discussion for the page Kugelmugel. See the deletion discussion for more details. I have already expanded the article with a lot of relevant sources and inline citations to show that it clearly passes GNG, but some extra eyes can help. I haven't included any of the papers that I found in scholar into the article yet, but there's additional things there. Raladic (talk) 18:41, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a deletion nomination for the page John Mateer (musician). See deletion discussion for more info. --9t5 (talk) 02:29, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
