@Fitindia: Thanks for the link to the newer case about municipal elections. I'll find a way to incorporate the information into the article. Regarding the non-free tag, i think we should discuss that on the article's talk page. MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:36, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Sega tambour Chagos

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Sega tambour Chagos requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://ich.unesco.org/en/USL/sega-tambour-chagos-01490. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. power~enwiki (π, ν) 07:56, 19 December 2020 (UTC)

Replacing image location

Hi MPGuy2824. I noticed that you are repeatedly replacing the |image_name= parameter with a |logo= parameter, like you did here and here. If you read the {{Infobox university}} template documentation, you will see that the logo field is actually meant for a different purpose such as athletics logo or corporate emblem. Happy editing. --Muhandes (talk) 11:42, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

@Muhandes:, i looked it up and you are right: "logo" is the wrong parameter name. But "image_name" is also wrong. "image" seems to be the right parameter. I'll try to fix what i've already wrongly edited. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 02:53, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

They do the same thing, but I agree |image= is preferred. --Muhandes (talk) 16:25, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

February 2021

Hi MPGuy2824! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Liberal College, Imphal that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. Muhandes (talk) 08:06, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Gotcha. Wikipedia's definition of minor edit clashed with mine. Will course correct. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:59, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

Constituency article

Hello MPGuy2824. Thank you for creating the Indian state assembly constituency articles. May I suggest a convention like this

Dimapur-II (Nagaland Assembly constituency)

The convention has historically been used for the Delhi and Rajasthan assembly constituencies. This makes it easier to disambiguate and easily identifies the constituency. Additionally, as this is the English Wikipedia, it is preferred that we use English terms (so it is best to avoid using "Vidhan Sabha"). If possible, could you please use this convention for future articles you create? I will try to move the existing ones to appropriate names. Let me know your thoughts.--DreamLinker (talk) 13:27, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

@DreamLinker:

Actually i also would have liked using the phrase "Legislative Assembly", instead of "Vidhan Sabha", but i was trying to keep the naming consistent with the constituency articles that were already created, for each state.
This RFC Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/India-related articles#Constituency names RFC drafting seems to have fizzled out, but might interest you. --MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:28, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. From what I checked, seems like originally the "(Delhi Assembly constituency)" type suffix was being used. This is also consistent with the categories such as Category:Assembly constituencies of Gujarat. Then it seems a few years ago some users started mass creating constituency articles and named it Vidhan sabha or Vidhana sabha which created a mass of article without naming convention. It would be good to create future articles using the convention though.--DreamLinker (talk) 09:32, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

I only have KN and RJ left to do. I think i'll follow your suggestion for them. But, JnK's constitieuncies will be delimited sooner or later. I'm not sure about those, the names will be too long e.g. Baramulla (Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly constituency). Let's cross that bridge when we come to it though. Take care. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:32, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. Btw, Rajasthan already has all the constituency articles right? Category:Assembly_constituencies_of_Rajasthan I think usually the term "Assembly constituency" is used for Legislative Assembly of a state or UT (most states are unicameral anyway). For legislative council, we can use (Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Council constituency), although personally I don't really think it is useful to create articles about Legislative council constituencies as they are not directly elected. I will have a look about the JnK situation in detail soon.--DreamLinker (talk) 11:23, 15 February 2021 (UTC)

RJ has 200 constituencies, only 91 of which have wiki articles.
Legislative councils do have a few, directly-elected seats e.g. Graduates (Category:Graduates constituencies in India).
No need to look at JnK, until the latest delimitation is done for the assembly constituencies. The Legislative Council was abolished though. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 04:20, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

Oh, my mistake. I didn't realise quite a lot of the constituency articles were missing. Sorry. I will checkout the legislative council constituency articles (there are a few but not too many). Anyway, personally I avoid creating articles about the legislative council constituencies.--DreamLinker (talk) 16:31, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted

Hi MPGuy2824. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary.

The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:

Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 16:30, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Ryuchalo

Hello! Thank you for editing Wikipedia. Have you looked at any of the references on Ryuchalo before adding the notability tag? All are professional news sources (from more than one country/in more than one language) and most of the articles are explicitly about the subject - only a couple are primarily about his mother with mention of him. I can certainly see what else is out there, but it seems obvious to me that the subject meets WP:RS. If you have any further suggestions, please let me know. Londonbeat41692 (talk) 08:27, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

@Londonbeat41692:, I think that while WP:RS is a necessary condition for notability, it isn't a sufficient condition. While Ryuchalo has quite a few sources mentioning him, I don't think he deserves to have an article on wikipedia, assuming that this is all that we know of him. That said, I haven't marked the article for deletion and leave that upto the judgement of future editors. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:33, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Sikkimese elections

Hello. Thanks for your improvements to these articles. However, I noticed you introduced some inconsistencies into them. For example, in the 1953 Sikkimese general election article, you added a bit about five members being appointed to the Council, but the results table says there were six members appointed. In 1958 Sikkimese general election you added that there were six appointed members, but the results table has seven. In the 1967 Sikkimese general election you added that eight members were appointed, and then listed nine, while the results table says six. You might want to double check these. Cheers, Number 5 7 16:40, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

@Number 57: Thanks for noticing those. I've fixed the info for the 1958 and 1967 pages. Unfortunately, for 1953, i could only find information about 5 of the 6 appointed members. I'll see if there is any way to clarify that in the article. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:22, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Thank you, but I'm not comfortable with this change. The Bareh source states that there were six appointed members and three other elected members; you can't change one piece of sourced information because another one doesn't fit. To change the results table, you need to find a source that says there were eight appointed members and one other elected member, otherwise the results table is misrepresentation of a source. Number 5 7 07:55, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

They were 18 elected seats. I'll revert the offending edit. I found a source for two nominees of the tsong seat here and my other source about the proceeding of the Council says that one of them was in the meeting. Can I conclude that he (Harka Dhoj Limbu) was the elected member? -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:30, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

If you have a source that gives the breakdown of seats as 'others 1, appointed 8', then by all means amend the table and add that as a source. Also, there are nine appointed members listed now, which makes it a bit confusing. Is the remaining 1 'other' seat an appointed Tsong member? Number 5 7 14:21, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

I think you misunderstood my last reply. Anyway, I've added the reference and fixed the inconsistencies in the article. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:24, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Seppa East (Vidhan Sabha constituency), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National People's Party. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 06:00, 30 June 2021 (UTC)

Manjhipur

Hi MPGuy and welcome to new page review. This is a reply to your message to me at User talk:Yashasvi Singh Saini regarding Manjhipur. At Articles for Creation, the threshold we apply is "Articles that will probably survive a listing at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion should be accepted. Articles that will probably not survive should be declined." I accepted the draft because I do not believe it would be deleted at AfD. Why do I believe that? Because WP:GEOLAND says "populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low" and WP:NPLACE says "cities and villages anywhere in the world are generally kept, regardless of size or length of existence, as long as that existence can be verified through a reliable source." For this village, are there reliable sources that confirm that Manjhipur exists? Yes, there are. A Google search returns maps and census data. Is it possible to verify that the place exists? Yes. So the remaining issue is that the state of the referencing in the article should be improved. That's not an AfC task, but the tagging should be done by New Pages Patrol. As well as tagging, you can use the NPP curation toolbar to leave a message for the author with suggestions for improvement. As you've already identified a reliable source that could be added to the article I think the quickest thing to do is to add that reference yourself. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 07:57, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

All right, i understand. Hopefully the creator (or someone else) does add a good reference. I added a suggestion to Yashasvi (along with the message to you) on their talk page. Cheers. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:05, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Tripura East Mon Sabha

Dear MPguy Pls revert back to original form by removing your edits Wherever I am doing something you are following upto there and removing it You did it for Shillong and Kishanganj Lol Sabha pages also Stop your madness Asianchamp2 (talk) 11:32, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

@Asianchamp2: I'll assume you meant Tripura East (Lok Sabha constituency). I tried to initiate a conversation with you on your talk page, but if you are more comfortable on my talk page, that's fine with me. To reiterate (and add to) my points :

Please don't add the column "Leading in 2019". I don't think it adds anything to that particular page beyond what is already available about the LS constituency election results for 2019. At least the ones where I removed that column didn't even have a source. Instead adding a sourced value for the electorate as of the last election (LS or VS/LA) might be more helpful.
Try to add the whole party's name instead of just the short form. Another editor usually has to come and clean that up after you. Lately, you have been getting some Disambiguation link notification on your talk page about this.
There is no good reason to limit the width of the table, or set a column as wider than it would be. This just makes the table longer than needed on most screens and hence decreases the readability. Although, sometimes setting some (lesser-important) columns (e.g. Constituency number) shorter than it would be by default, helps to make the table more readable.
If you could separate the party from its colors, it would be great. I've done this at Kishanganj (Lok Sabha constituency), if you want to take a look.
To end, you can revert(undo) any of my edits, if you feel they are not improving Wikipedia. Please read WP:3RR though. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:08, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Tagging pages for deletion

Hello, MPGuy2824,

Just a reminder that every time you tag a page for deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/TFD/MFD/etc.), you need to post a notification on the talk page of the page creator so they are aware of the deletion tagging and/or deletion discussion. It's an important step of the deletion process and allows them to participate. I recommend you use Twinkle because once you set up your Preferences to "Notify page creator", Twinkle will post these notices for you which makes things easy. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:33, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

I mostly use the page curation toolbar for that. I did a few yesterday manually. I assume those are the ones you are talking about. I'll do my best to remember to tag the page creator when I do manual tagging. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 02:36, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Red link categories

Hello, again, MPGuy2824,

If you make changes on an article or article talk page that cause nonexistent, red link categories to appear (as what happened on Talk:List of constituencies of the Mizoram Legislative Assembly), it would be good if you would take a minute and create the category.

According to WP:REDNO, red link categories either a) need to be removed or b) the category needs to be created. When these red link categories appear due to changes in talk page banners, I'm reluctant to simply revert your edits to remove them because obviously you wanted to reclassify this page. So, if you could just follow up and create these new categories (or, in this case, an editor associated with Wikipedia:WikiProject Mizoram could do it), it would be greatly appreciated. Better that someone who knows the subject take care of this than a random editor tidying up Special:WantedCategories try to take a shot at it. Thank you! Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:35, 14 July 2021 (UTC)

Election results template

Hello. Just to let you know, you only need to use the valid parameter in the template when the valid figure is different to the party totals (for example, in elections where voters can vote for more than one candidate). If it's one vote per voter, the template uses the valid figure from the party totals.

Also, if a party hasn't contested an election before, mark it as 'New' in the seat change column. Cheers, Number 5 7 20:14, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Makes sense, will follow that now on. What about in the infobox? For a new party winning seats, should the 'seats_before' be 0/New/blank. I've currently left it as blank, but it looks a bit weird? -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:02, 19 July 2021 (UTC)

Sorry, didn't see your response. I would advise against using the 'seats_before' parameter. In the 'last_election' one I would put '–' and then put 'New' in the 'swing' and 'seat_change' parameters. Cheers, Number 5 7 15:33, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

@Bibhash404:, I understand that you didn't mean for the article to be like an advertisement, but it certainly looked so at the time that I tagged the page. You could have stopped/paused the deletion by doing the steps mentioned in the speedy-delete tag and adding your arguments to the associated talk page. The article has now been deleted, but you can recreate the article. I suggest that you go through the Wikipedia:Articles for creation process this time. Do that and then tag me on the talk page. I'll try to give you pointers on how to make the article acceptable to the wiki. Don't be disheartened. There is a first learning experience for everyone on Wikipedia. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 04:43, 30 August 2021 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted

Hi MPGuy2824. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:

Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. _signed,Rosguill ^talk 16:31, 22 August 2021 (UTC)

hello

@MPGuy2824: Dear user, I have created 22 complete resources for this. All my friends approved of my work. All in all, please help me. You are my teacher. Pages with more than 3 sources are approved on Wikipedia. But I mentioned 22 sources. Thanks. Remove the quick delete tag. Thanks.Ahmadreza Ashari (talk) 06:28, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

@Ahmadasna: I assume that you are talking about Shahzad Dana. If so, you can remove the speedy delete tag yourself. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 06:34, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

Also, its not a question of quantity of sources, but also their quality. Please see WP:RS for details on how Wikipedia judges sources. He "came up with the idea of traveling to the moon in 2011"? Humans first visited the moon in 1969. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 06:36, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

@MPGuy2824:

Please pay attention to this page. The flow of travel to the moon in 1969 was a lie and a part of special effects. He has just mentioned life on the moon, not the first trip to Moon.Ahmadreza Ashari (talk) 07:28, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

@MPGuy2824:

Please do not allow the page to be deleted. This character is Prince Dana, a young employee of NASA America. Therefore, agree to the permanent registration of this page. you're welcome. Thanks.Ahmadreza Ashari (talk) 08:04, 6 September 2021 (UTC)

disambiguation

Hello MPGuy2824!

WP:G14 (a conclusion regarding my scope of activity): A disambiguation page has the right to exist if it has at least 3 links and at least 2 links to existing pages, right?

Questions: • Do I have the right to leave a (red) link to a non-existent disambiguation on the article (Zhuravinka, Kurchatovsky District, Kursk Oblast → Zhuravinka)? • Do I have the right to leave a (red) link to a non-existent secondary meaning on the article (Dronyayevo, Kurchatovsky District, Kursk Oblast → Dronyayevo, Kursky District, Kursk Oblast)?

At the moment, Mosolovo, Kursk Oblast redirects to himself (Mosolovo), as does Dronyayevo, Kurchatovsky District, Kursk Oblast (Dronyayevo) ...

Regards, --ThWiki1910 (talk) 10:50, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

@ThWiki1910:, another editor reverted my edit which has now confused me. I'll finish talking to them and clarify things, before responding to you properly. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:58, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

@ThWiki1910:, you created a Set-index article which i mistakenly thought was a disambiguation page. One was reverted by the other editor and i've reverted my edit to the second article. So you should be good to go. Regarding your other question, i think you are talking about WP:HATLINK. In which case, WP:REDHAT applies. It states that "Hatnotes should not contain red links to non-existent articles since hatnotes are intended to help users navigate to another article they may have intended to find. The exception is if one intends to create the linked article immediately. In that case, consider creating the new article first, before saving the addition of the hatnote." -MPGuy2824 (talk) 06:46, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

@Jiggyziz: the article is not ready for mainspace. It is WP:OVERLINKed and there needs to be a general cleanup of the language, to start with. I'm not suggesting that the topic isn't WP:notable -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:46, 26 September 2021 (UTC)

Remove article from redirect

--Sagheermirza (talk) 04:55, 29 September 2021 (UTC)Sagheer Sir previously this article was not redirected. You have now redirected it. Most of the places in this area have falling rains or google map references and Tehsils & Unions in the District of Jhelum - Government of Pakistan. The names of many places mentioned by the government are not on the official website. I can show you my ID card which has Chakri, Jhelum, Mirza Abad, Chakri, Ajmair Sharif, Jhelum written on it.

@Sagheermirza: Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. Please read up on WP:RS and WP:N. For the sake of your own cyber security, i'd recommend that you don't send me (or anyone else) a photo of your ID. Is there a census site for Pakistan which has this village mentioned? If so, that would fall under WP:RS. Try to look for that. Also, FYI people on WP usually add their signature at the end of their comments. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 05:34, 29 September 2021 (UTC)

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021

Hello MPGuy2824,

Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.

Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.

At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.

There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.

If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.

Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.

To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here. Sent to 827 users. 04:32, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

Can you help me ?

Hey, I saw that you left a suggestion on my Article. Can you help me improve it ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fußball1888 (talk • contribs) 07:32, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

@Fußball1888: Its a WP:notability issue for Ilyas Bircan, since the Turkish first league doesn't come in this list WP:FPL. You are going to have to meet the general notability guidelines (WP:GNG). In short, find news articles which talk about him (and not just a single line mention) and add these to the article. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:14, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Added reference for Leng Pei Tsuen

Dear MPGuy2824,

I had added the reference for Leng Pei Tsuen regarding the construction of sewers in that area which was at the time unsewered to improve environmental hygiene.

Thank you.

Aravindhan Ravikumar (talk) 09:26, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

@GoAheadFan95: could you add a good source for census information? That should be good enough to establish notability. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 09:31, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

@MPGuy2824: I had added a good source for census information regarding the Leng Pei Tsuen article as Leng Pei Tsuen is under Queen's Hill constituency, thus no need for the Refimprove tag. Thank you. -Aravindhan Ravikumar (talk) 09:46, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Regarding the census, i was hoping that you'd find a good source which gives the population of the village itself. They you could use that as the source and add the population information too. Anyway, i've removed the tag, but another editor could add it. I suggest that you add the link that you've put in external link as a reference somewhere in the article. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:33, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Fraz Wahlah review

You have marked the Draft:Fraz Wahlah reviewed. The article was moved to the draft space by MrsSnoozyTurtle and I dispute her opinion that the article is written from a fan's point of view or reads like a press release. The Movement for the Restoration of Democracy is a well-discussed event on Wikipedia, and Fraz Wahlah's photo is used on every single article that mentions MRD. I used highly reliable sources for references such as BBC and established national media outlets from Pakistan and India. Could you point me to those exact parts of the article that are written from a fan's point of view or being "press release style" in your opinion?

I'm happy to contribute to enhancing the article and am open to a discussion about it, but I want to submit it to another review to take it back to the main space. Thanks, DillonPalm (talk) 12:22, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

@DillonPalm: after MrsSnoozyTurtle moved the article to draft space, i marked the mainspace redirect as reviewed, to get it out of the New Page patrol queue. I hadn't even looked at the article (now draft). I suggest that you take this up with MrsSnoozyTurtle; you could continue in the section that they started on your talk page. That said, this line of the article "This photo is used as the leading illustration material for MRD on BBC,[1][2][3] The Wire,[5] Dawn.com,[6] The Friday Times[4] and Wikipedia." seems unencyclopaedic. Also the paragraph about the ICT award is a bit much. Just say that he won the award, why and where. Other unrelated suggestions: Add an infobox, move the photo to the infobox , add english translations of titles of citations -MPGuy2824 (talk) 03:14, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

@MPGuy2824: Thanks for your response, I'll do make some changes to the article and get in touch with MrsSnoozyTurtle via my talkpage/ DillonPalm (talk) 12:27, 26 October 2021 (UTC) Sorry, I just linked your username accidentally in my talkpage recently, I deleted it. DillonPalm (talk) 13:35, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

One source

Hi MPGuy. A quick note about the {{one source}} template when you are reviewing new pages: this is template is for when an article relies on a single source, and it's a problem that it relies on one source. As the documentation says, it is not a problem in all cases, and should not be added to stubs, articles that are being actively expanded, or articles that have no apparent problems with verifiability and neutrality. – Joe (talk) 07:32, 4 October 2021 (UTC)

@Joe Roe: Thanks for the information. Noted. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:34, 4 October 2021 (UTC)
