DYK for Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board

I created and wrote the article on the MPRB. --  Mnnlaxer |  talk |  stalk 18:23, 20 July 2019 (UTC) reply

On 25 January 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board oversees a park system that has been called the best-designed, best-financed, and best-maintained in America? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Wikiproject Lacrosse

Hey! I noticed that you and me were the only ones working on the lacrosse wiki project, so I thought it would be good if we worked together on it a little bit. I’m more of a writer and researcher and not as much of a programmer besides the basic stuff. Twooeight ( talk) 16:43, 19 July 2019 (UTC) reply

Hi @ Twooeight:. I'm not sure what collaboration you're talking about, I mostly edit sporadically on my own. But I know wikicode and templates fairly well. Do you have some questions? Maybe on references? The best thing you can do is use the "Templates" drop down in the upper left of the editing box. (I think everyone sees this, but it might be a preference.) Use "Cite web" for non-news websites and "Cite news" for news. In the pop up box, paste the url and click the magnifying glass. It will populate some fields for you. Also, just click the date icon to add today's accessdate.
You can use parameter "pll_team" instead of "league" and "team" on {{ infobox lacrosse player}}.
Watch out for disambiguations. You can get disambiguation links to be orange. Under preferences, check the box near the bottom under appearance. There are lots of good options on the gadget page, btw.
You can post a note on the active members' talk pages to try to build some momentum. I went through the list and all are currently active. -  Mnnlaxer |  talk |  stalk 15:57, 20 July 2019 (UTC) reply
Yea I knew that link was to a disambiguation page, but I didn’t know which choice was correct so I thought it would be better to leave at the disambiguation than to choose the wrong one. I noticed you left a note on one person’s page and I will do the same with a few others. For the collaboration, I just meant we both work on improving the page for the project and stuff like that. I’m actually not really sure what I meant about that but I thought I should say something to you because we were the only ones editing it. The wiki project page does need a lot of updating though because so many of the links lead nowhere or to very outdated places, and the tasks and goals are also pretty old (although many still apply). Thank you for the editing tips as well. Twooeight ( talk) 17:42, 20 July 2019 (UTC) reply

Specific notability guideline for lacrosse players

Also, WP:ATH doesn’t have a criteria for lacrosse players. I want to make one but it seems like an important change and I thought I should check with someone before doing it. What do you think should be included in that? Twooeight ( talk) 23:39, 21 July 2019 (UTC) reply

I wouldn't bother. There isn't enough interest in deleting marginally notable lax players, so it isn't really needed. It also would likely cause more heat than light, as it is something to argue about. Have you gotten into a good wikipedia argument yet? But if you're gung ho, go for it. I have high standards for notability, which would mean only the best players in the professional leagues (NLL, MLL, PLL, and WPLL) are notable to me, say all-stars. Great DI college careers would also be notable, say first team all-american. Championship or career record coaches too. I'm good with anybody in the hall of fame, but I would want some other sources for prose besides the hall of fame page bio. That's really my notability standard. If you google somebody and have multiple articles about that person (not just a mention or stats) on the first page, then they are notable. And I don't like stats-heavy articles. Check out the other sports for more ideas. -  Mnnlaxer |  talk |  stalk 00:32, 22 July 2019 (UTC) reply

The FAQ page was very helpful. What I took from it was that the subject must have at least one or maybe two articles written primarily about about the person or thing. If there is a criteria of lacrosse players that will have all of that. Thank you for helping me with this on Wikipedia talk:Notability (sports)#Lacrosse, because you’ve added a lot of important points that I wouldn’t have thought of. And no, I haven’t been in a Wikipedia fight yet, sounds fun though. Twooeight ( talk) 18:14, 24 July 2019 (UTC) reply

An article you recently created, 2019 World Indoor Lacrosse Championship, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. ( ?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed ( verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

GA review of Aztecazo

Mnnlaxer, you just edited the WP:GAN page, attempting to put this review on hold. This is not how you put articles on hold, and the edit will be undone by the bot the next time it runs (which may already have occurred). The bot runs every 20 minutes, rewriting the GAN page when there are changes, and bases its content on the talk pages of the various nominated articles, and also (when they exist) the review pages.

The instructions on how to put a nomination on hold are at WP:GANI#Putting the article on hold, so you can do so correctly. (This will also result in a message being placed on the nominator's talk page, letting them know that it's on hold.) You will probably want to read the rest of the instructions for reviewers elsewhere on that page. Thanks for being willing to review. BlueMoonset ( talk) 15:32, 20 August 2019 (UTC) reply

Lacrosse/GA2

I have started reviewing Lacrosse and have put it on hold as I have concerns about depth of coverage, prose, and quality of sources. See Talk:Lacrosse/GA2. My recommendation is that as this is a significant topic, that some time and thought be given to doing detailed research using the various reliable texts (not commercial or club websites) on the subject, and fleshing out the bones of the article, and then getting it properly copyedited. In my experience, this is likely to take some months, so it would be best to close the review now; however, I have known determined contributors turn around an article in a few weeks, so I'm prepared to keep the review open if you feel you can devote the time and energy needed to get this up to GA standard before the end of the month.

A tag has been placed on Category:Southern Conference men's lacrosse indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

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".

Thank you for accepting the review. I understand your concerns and I have asked for help on the project page. Hopefully the project can rise to the occasion. -  Mnnlaxer |  talk |  stalk 13:54, 19 November 2019 (UTC) reply
I have closed the GA review as not-listed. When the issues have been addressed the article can be nominated again. SilkTork ( talk) 09:38, 27 November 2019 (UTC) reply

Dread Central

Hi, with regards to your edit [ [3]] on the AfD for 100 Million B.C., Dread Central is listed as a Reliable Source at WikiProject Horror/Sources for future reference. Thanks. Donaldd23 ( talk) 12:44, 29 December 2020 (UTC) reply

@ Donaldd23: That's nice that a project considers it reliable. Do you generally think that one review in Dread Central establishes notability by itself? -  Mnnlaxer |  talk |  stalk 15:19, 29 December 2020 (UTC) reply
Enough to pass WP:GNG. Donaldd23 ( talk) 15:21, 29 December 2020 (UTC) reply
Multiple sources are generally required for GNG, and certainly for such a low quality source. Glad to see the closing admin didn't agree with you. -  Mnnlaxer |  talk |  stalk 16:21, 29 December 2020 (UTC) reply
