Publisher for you

This journal: https://search.worldcat.org/title/cainozoic-research/oclc/51307519 has been mentioned at Wikipedia talk:Notability (species). I don't see anything about it being predatory online (though it's apparently published some articles about predatory snails), but I thought you might be interested in looking into it.

Verywell

Hi Headbomb. Regarding this: the Verywell sites are in fact *unjustly* banned. They don't belong on the spamlist, because they aren't spamsites.

In December 2018, someone reported three of the four Verywell sites to WT:SBL, citing a tiny shred of evidence that quickly falls apart on inspection. An admin than impulsively banned the sites. Ever since, noone has unbanned them, either because of gross stupidity, or due to a conspiracy to keep them banished. I have evidence of both.

I see you are an admin. Can you remove those sites from the banlist? Thanks! Have a nice day, Manifestation (talk) 08:48, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First I'm not an admin. The place to raise these issues is that WP:RSN. But you've tried that several times and convinced few people, and admitted that Verywell is often "not the greatest". There's already other more reliable sources here, so I fail to see why Verywell is needed. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 14:47, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

People weren't convinced because they didn't pay attention. You can't convince people who are close-minded.

The spamlist should not be used to ban popular press sources. If you ban Verywell, then you should also ban: Men's Health, Women's Health, Psychology Today, Healthy Children, ScienceDaily, Healthline, Medical News Today, Daily Mirror, Sunday Mail, Investopedia.

Guess what? None of those websites are banned. It is advised against citing them, but you can still link to them.

I'm struggling to figure out how I can get people to listen to me. It will definitely take a lot of time to collect the evidence I need. Time which I don't have right now... - Manifestation (talk) 19:32, 16 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AA possible article not detected issue, or possible mistake of mine.

Greetings, this is HC226, i apologize for the inconvenience but I wanted to ask if it is possible that AlertBot did not send the article I submitted to the appropriate WikiProject or if I may have done something wrong while creating it. I submitted the following draft for review a few days ago: Draft:Grant Neal (MMA fighter). However, I it seems AlertBot has not picked it up to put it in WP:MMA's article alert AFC section. Could you please check if it has been picked up or if i have made an error while submitting? Thank you in advance for your help, and I again apologize for the inconvenience.

P.S: You have a really great page and I hope I can contribute as much as you have one day. HC226 (talk) 20:49, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@HC226: You need to tag it's talk page to with {{WP MMA}}, then it'll be picked up by the bot. 21:03, 2 September 2024 (UTC) Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 21:03, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
