Could you please help me with my first Article creation

Could you please help me with it. Because I found this person in google very exiciting. At such age he has been into many news channels and interviews with his tremendous work. If I can suggest you respectfully, I request you to please create by your name. Johndharmadeep (talk) 19:35, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Johndharmadeep, it's not a mere "I found this person on Google", but it appears you have associated with this person at an organisational level and are agreeing to help promote his causes. So there is a major conflict of interest that needs to be disclosed. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 01:01, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

And yeah, the Hoogenakker piece is a problem. 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:8D29 (talk) 00:53, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:8D29, thanks for letting me know. The article is quite dry in listing his work and references to external news articles and play programs that show he indeed was in the production, but it seems the other editor's embellishments make those listings like a promo piece, especially with the talks about padding the sentence with number of episodes and commercial views. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 01:05, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, first, I think you should receive combat pay. Agreed that tone isn't the issue with that bio now. Rather, it's the intent to list everything, which isn't what we do--just because sources exist, doesn't mean the content is necessary. In that respect, it has become a resume, and it doesn't help that we're actually using his resume as a source, even if only six or ten times. It's a red flag that tells us what the article's bigger issues may be. One of the things Kinfo doesn't get is that this sort of factual overkill backfires; a bio is far more effective when the half dozen or so major roles are emphasized. All the extra credits are fine on a resume, or as exposition for a published biography--here they look like someone is trying to promote the subject, or perhaps shine a light on their own research. Cheers, 2601:19E:4180:6D50:0:0:0:8D29 (talk) 01:23, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, it's why we add the IMDb link and the official website to the External links, if people really need to know what episodes and any really minor roles. I have commented out some of the entries that are exclusively sourced to resume / bio profiles for now. That editor really wants to make the Wikipedia article the detailed research article. Again, the content would be so much better served on their own fan website where they can even make their own screenshots and photos of memorabilia. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 01:52, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've edited a lot of voice actor filmographies, and they are highly susceptible to listing the most trivial roles. There are hundreds of entries where they are credited as "additional voices" or walla loop groups, and I've had to scrape all that cruft off their filmography articles. Many entries also rely heavily on the actor's input/resume, so in those cases I look for 1) external publications mentioning they have a starring role in the series first, and then 2) the actor making a tweet about playing the specific role. See talk:Cristina Vee filmography for better examples. There's a ton of commented out work that wouldn't be missed. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 01:59, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am talk:Cnyirahabihirwe, I started my work through my Sandbox " Wiki Loves africa Project 2023" and I still working on it, and I realized that it has been moved to the main page, I would like to ask you if you could move it again to the my sandbox work space? I still working on it.

Thank you very much talk:CnyirahabihirweCnyirahabihirwe123 (talk) 12:19, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cnyirahabihirwe123, did you still want me to move the project page from Wikipedia:Wiki Loves Africa 2023 to your sandbox? I tweaked the links so that the Coordinators and other pages go to the right spots. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 15:04, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thank you for doing that , please do, I really wish to stay there ( sandbox) for a while, once it will be done I will notify you to put it in the suitable place.

Thank you very much Cnyirahabihirwe123 (talk) 15:11, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 Done, it is now at User:Cnyirahabihirwe123/sandbox/Wiki Loves Africa 2023 AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 15:59, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello AngusWOOF, Thank you first of all for moving WLA 2023 to Wikipedia Sandbox, and I am now working safely to the page, but I would like to ask you if metapage has sandbox? I tried to find the sandbox of metapage but in vain, if it exist, is there any possibility to move the page Wiki Love Africa 2023 from Wikipedia Sandbox to metapage Sandbox?? Because that page which I am creating is a metapage not wikipedia article.

Please I need your help

Thank you Cnyirahabihirwe123 (talk) 07:14, 20 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello , I got the link to create a metapage in sandbox, Perhaps we must do it manually, I am working on it, and thank you very much

Have a nice day Cnyirahabihirwe123 (talk) 07:40, 21 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cnyirahabihirwe123, I'm not sure how to move stuff to wikimeta, maybe you can ask one of the admins there? AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:24, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Draft:Daniel White (real estate developer) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Just looking for more feedback on a recent article that was kicked back. It said it read like a LinkedIn page. That being said, this person is of interest due to their business ventures, which is why it would be similar to LinkedIn. There are references to the individuals sports and college career, however, there is not as much coverage there as there is on their business ventures so more of the emphasis is on that. There are a number of very reliable sources including Business Journals, Omaha Times and others that are on there which I would think are relevant.

Smecomplete (talk) 16:20, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Smecomplete, I was thinking more of articles that focused on White's life and career, where he grew up, went to school, first few jobs, how he became famous. Less of the press release stuff or ones where he is just quoted in a byline. AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:23, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I know you declined my request to have an article about Mayor Max III on Wikipedia. However, I noticed you also seggusted we added a general article about all three Mayor Max's (Mayor Max (dog)). Could we discuss some ideas for this proposed article? Thank you! JordanJa🎮es92🐱9 (wanna play?) Wikipedia ⭐ 22:24, 22 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
