18:35, 29 May 2021 (UTC)I am looking to edit the page /info/en/?search=History_of_the_Philippines_(1898%E2%80%931946) as part of a History project I am completing. I cannot get access to edit as my account is not old enough yet, is there any exceptions that can be made regarding this, as I need to have it done by next week, thank you.

I'm working on User:Nettrom/sandbox/Women's El Gouna International 2021, which uses {{ 16TeamBracket-Compact-Squash5}} to create the brackets with the results. One thing I haven't been able to find documentation for is how to write up walk overs and retirements. Both can be seen in User:Nettrom/sandbox/Women's El Gouna International 2021#Section 1, where there are walk overs in the second and third round, and a retirement in the third round. Are there conventions on how to do that, or an example you know of that I can use as a basis? Regards, Nettrom ( talk) 17:19, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
I'm planning to make userboxes upon request, and to not flood my talk page with requests, I want to create another account just for that. Because Wikipedia can be a bit strict with its policies, I just want to ask, is it some form of socking? -- Necctaylor ( chat) 17:38, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
I am considering deleting a draft for The Talking Tom and Friends Movie because it is unsorced, and has no description about the upcoming film.
Hello dear colleagues, hope you guys are having an wonderful weekend.
I came here as a last resort of a sort, to try and understand some why's and how's about the process of accepting some poorly constructed articles with very few to zero reliable references and the instant deletion to articles heavily referenced and very well constructed just because it comes from new users, like myself.
First, let me be clear, I understand very well the WP:N guidelines, and this is not a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. I´ve done my homework, studying over and over those.
Now, let's discuss what's been troubling me. Help me understand why such articles like Jennifer Friedlander and Lubomir Mykytiuk which i took from the top of W:NPP right now, articles that has no reliable sources, Jennifer has ONE source, from the college that she is currently teaching (inadmissible as reliable source according to Wikipedia guidelines) , has ONE sentence, poorly constructed and Lubomir has 2 sources , a website really suspicious with no secure internet connection and the other source from Wikipedia itself (not admissible as reliable, according to Wikipedia guidelines), BOTH of them have been patrolled and admissible on Wikipedia Mainspace, on the other hand articles like this Foxel, which has multiples references from multiple type of sources (as requested by WP:N) and its very well constructed , are neglected and even scheduled for elimination with a blink of an eye.
What seems to me, that the process its very biased, neglecting new users like me, with no consideration if the article is good or not , have references or not, its well constructed or not. The rules should apply to everyone and every article, in my humble opinion.
Again, this is not a WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, I just need to understand why this happens. I need an honest response, because so far i have not been able to find one. And yes, i checked all the references and all the articles mentioned here before coming here.

That's it? So if the person has the autopatroll ranking, he is above the general rules and guidelines? Creating aN atmosphere which they and only they can create articles no matter how poor and neglecting users like maltaroset and myself who is wanting to contribute, creating articles with all the guidelines in mind and well constructed. Also, you said focus on quality not quantity and i agree, but all of the sources in Foxel are widely respected magazines in the field of the subject (electronic music) in Brazil and none of the sources of the articles i gave as comparison are reliable, and you did not managed to explain why it is so biased? Let me be specific, this Jennifer Friedlander is extremely poorly constructed, the first and only reference is from Pomona University (where she is hired as a professor) so not reliable. And Lubomir Mykytiuk , which again, very poorly constructed article, two sources, one is a very suspicious website with no relevance what so ever (yes, i´ve done my research), even with no secure connection and the other source is from Wikipedia itself (which clearly contradicts the WP:N guideline). Could you help me understand? Sincerely ArzakMululu ( talk) 23:43, 29 May 2021 (UTC)
