When I read the page titled "CNR Bridge", I changed it to "Queensborough CNR Bridge", then "Queensborough SRY Bridge", only then realising the brief article which said the bridge linked to Queensborough on Lulu Island, was not actually on the subject of the Queensborough rail bridge, but was in fact regarding the CNR bridge downstream (not into Queensborough) that links onto the Richmond part of Lulu Island. The CNR Bridge should be the "Lulu Island CNR Bridge" Is there way of actually deleting my move changes. I am hesitant to proceed further in ignorance because I fear if someone later writes an article entitled the "Queensborough SRY Bridge" on that actual bridge, it will be redirected to the other bridge.

Hello Belated Merry Christmas, everyone As I was working on the article, the image file which I uploaded was removed due to non-usage on infobox. So I would like to apply for a request for restoring the image File:Beautiful (2019 film).jpg as the article is ready and now the image file can be used on the article infobox. And one more request before restoring it please do the necessary file name changes and move it from the old title File:Beautiful (2019 film).jpg to the new title File:Beautiful (2020 film).jpg. Thanks, I duly respect the hardwork of an Administrator hatsoff. FascinateGuy ( talk) 07:03, 27 December 2019 (UTC)

Hello Teahouse hosts. I am editing the article New Albion specifically for a GAN. A suggestion, which I believe is worthy, has been put forth to include a push pin map such as the example for Jamestown which you may view HERE.

Thank you all!
Although it might be a big bite for a newbie, I am very hungry to start a major editing of this article. Its author has made an excellent effort, and is unbiassed in that his main source is the actual AR of the IPCC. Unfortunately, after over a century of increasingly intensive study, every reputable scientific organization has declared that the existence of this phenomenon is a certainty-unprecedented for scientists-the majority of Americans refuse to accept the reality of Global Warming. This is in my opinion due to two factors:
(i) One side of this issue seems to have free access to the media to press their position (the nonexistence of Global Warming). Believe me I have spent a lot of time trying to find a valid, reliable source for their position. I have yet to find such a source.
(ii) On the side supporting the existence of Global Warming (I am neutral), the inability of the scientific community the present their conclusions about such a huge and complex phenomenon in a language readily understandable to the general public has inadvertently much of all this bias.
I feel that, as the reputation of Wikipedia as an acceptable source continues to grow, you would perform a great service for our country and planet if you were to post an article on Global Warming which is both scientifically accurate and in a non-technical language that is crystal clear to the average reader.
I just feel that, although excellently researched and written, this article does not sufficiently meet these criteria.
Last thing: there is a possibility that this article will be viciously attacked for its supposed bias and/falsehoods.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Unable to edit Wikipedia Black Holes
The subject of Black Holes has been completed for some time However the subject is not complete, and my editing skills are not great
What I would like to see some of this added (after editing)
Black Holes are an object of very condensed matter. Possibly containing atoms that have had the space removed. The mass of a Black Holes acts very much like the mass of stars, the closer you get, the greater the effects of gravity. However, because they are very condensed, objects can get much closer before colliding.
https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › S0–102
Is one of the closest stars that we know of near Sagittarius A and has an orbiting period of 11.5 years
Closer objects would orbit in a shorter period of time and the orbit speed would be faster Somewhere near what is described at the event horizon, objects including light would orbit at the speed of light.
There is no indication that the event horizon is at the surface of a black hole Thus, any object orbiting closer to the surface, would be travelling faster than the speed of light. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Victoria7j ( talk • contribs) 13:16, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

13:32, 28 December 2019 (UTC)Names of bands/teams/groups etc. are treated as singular, unless the name also applies to the individual members of the group. An individual member of The Mentally Ill would not be referred to as "a Mentally Ill", so the band "The Mentally Ill" is treated as singular. On the other hand, members of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Yankees, Athletics, Flying Tigers, etc. are each referred to as a Beatle, Stone, Yankee, Athletic, and Flying Tiger, respectively, so these groups are treated as is they were plural. Sanctandriensis ( talk) 13:58, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
In a recent discussion about a metallic band, I found it odd that the grammar stated: " The Mentally Ill were a punk band". I thought that the band is singular, while the members are plural? i.e. The Kingston Trio: "... is an American folk and pop music group." If you take away the "name" and merely refer to the actual organization for what it is - "band"; one would not say: "The band were ..." but "The band is ...". The Juilliard String Quartet is a classical music string quartet; not "are" a classical music string quartet - regardless of the name. Also, "Vienna Choir Boys is a choir of boy sopranos" not "are". Pentatonix is an American a cappella group in its lede. Why are certain bands like The Who described on WP in the lede as: "The Who are an English rock band" and not "The Who is an English rock band"; like " Nirvana was an American rock band"? This: " Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band" just does not sound right. Doesn't the same principles apply? Curious. Thanks in advance. Maineartists ( talk) 23:23, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable, although editors may, at their discretion, choose to limit large lists by only including entries for independently notable items or those with Wikipedia articles.

Hello everyone, can anyone help me understand why the wiki I created has been deleted? This is the second time my contribution got deleted. The reason for deletion is section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. I must admit that my first submission was objective. But this time, I used neutral POV as per wiki suggestions so it doesn't sound like promotional (I also had someone read it to get another's perspective). Still, no luck.

Hello everybody, Hello to the community,
I'm coming from Germany and I try to include my knowledge into German Wikipedia for years. But with the English one I have some difficulties in understanding the procedure maybe... Since 24th of October 2019 there is a draft of the entry "Sayonara Player", which is also available in two other languages: /info/en/?search=Sayonara_Player
Can anybody give me some assistance on what I need to do, that the entry gets reviewed and published? My target is to include it here /info/en/?search=Comparison_of_audio_player_software where only players with an own entry are accepted.
The reason is, that I was searching for a good Linux audio player since eight years. Finally I found one this summer, but it's not well-known and I think Wikipedia could be a solution to change this situation.

Hi Captain Eek,
The discussion was archived regarding Radmila Lolly, so I am following up here. I am not clear how Radmila does not qualify as notable with the amount of coverage I included in my article draft. As far as possibly requiring some years before becoming notable, Radmila has been publicly active since 2012. I have also left out things that Wikipedia doesn't approve of (e.g. "dating a celebrity"), but said things also prove that public celebrities/influencers attend Radmila's events and that she has other known affiliates with Wikipedia pages of their own. Please, please help me as I have remained within Wikipedia's guidelines for citing/giving sources.
Carlden10, Howdy hello and welcome to the Teahouse! The main issue here is that at the moment, the community has determined (based on this discussion) that Lolly is not currently notable, i.e. they are not sufficiently written about and cannot be covered on Wikipedia. Realistically, some years may need to pass before this person does enough to make them notable to be on Wikipedia. At this time, I do not recommend you work on Lolly further. Creating a new article from scratch is one of the hardest thing to do on Wikipedia. You are likely best served by working on editing existing articles to get a feel for how Wikipedia works. Please feel free to ask any other questions you have about Lolly, or Wikipedia in general. Smooth sailing, Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 23:14, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

PR Agency: SGG Public Relationsindicating that it is directly based on a press release, and so is not independent coverage and does not count toward notability. The Women Fitness article is again an interview. So is the article from VOCE SPETTACOLO. The article from NSCMagazine again ends with
PR Agency: SGG Public Relationsand so is of no value for establishing notability. I cannot asses the article from Óyeme Magazine as it is not in English, but even if it is a high-class source, one independent reliable source is not enough. At least three are needed, and high-quality sources are particularly needed to overcome the determination made at the AfD discussion.

Ndołkah It is thoroughly appropriate to mention changes made to an article in an open AfD. I have done so several times. It is also perfectly appropriate to ping those who have commented previously, provided that you notify all of them. You should be aware that AfD discussions are not normally closed until they have been open for at least 7 full days (24 x 7 hours), so this one has a couple of days to go, at least, and sometimes they are relisted for an additional week or more. None of the conditions for a faster than usual close seem to apply in this case. You might want to look at WP:HEY as well. Thanks for your edits on this article.

Hello everyone, I became a monthly donor to Wikipedia and decided to set up a user page. As best as I could tell, it is a page that is intended to describe the user, but perhaps that is incorrect? It is not clear to me how the user page needs to be setup. I am not writing an article, just the user page. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BeowulfTheDionysian ( talk • contribs) 17:55, 30 December 2019 (UTC)
BeowulfTheDionysian, our training programs leave much to be desired. As en.wiki is entirely volunteer, that won't likely improve until an individual comes along that wants to fix that. One thing we do have is WP:TWA, an interactive learning tool formatted as a video game. Please try it before giving up. I doubt we share many common interests, so I'd be unable to help you with research, but you can always leave me or any other editor a note on their talk page if you have technical problems.

Lafée, also known as Sherry or Lee Sae-Bom, is a K-Pop artist who appeared on season 3, episode 9 of Korean music game show I Can See Your Voice. She released a single called Love Fever on November 8, 2018 and an EP called HELLO on January 10, 2019 (can be found here and has music videos, distributed via GENIE YouTube). Her voice is notable for its distinctive huskiness, which is more noticeable in her busking videos. Before appearing on I Can See Your Voice, she was a medical resident in Los Angeles.

An article I wrote Draft:Tibet House US was taken down and made a draft for articles for creation. Aside from the fact that the article was live on Wiki for months, had well over 1000 views including views and edits by other editors, it was taken down without any prior notice, and tagged: "Do not copy-paste material from sources, or your submission will be rejected for copyright violations. Write from a neutral point of view and base your article on reliable sources that are independent of the subject. It is strongly discouraged to write about yourself or your own business. If you do so, you must declare it." -- I checked all the instructions related to these claims and do not understand why the article was taken down. Nothing was copy and pasted except for direct quotes from reliably sourced articles that are listed according to Wiki standards as quotes with citations. All the citations are from reliable sources independent of the subject. It was not written about myself or my own business. I also improved the general Tibet House article so the Tibet House and Tibet House US entries were up to date and in line with reliably sourced facts.

I have recently come across this draft a few months ago when it was declined three times by two different reviewers due to the same editor resubmitting the article without thoroughly following advice. In the following months since I found the draft, I have added several reliable secondary sources establishing the notability of the song, while also adding primary sources to support these statements. The draft was then rejected due to the lack of secondary sources and for the same reasons as the previously declined submissions, despite adding several more reliable secondary sources.
I have since followed the reviewer's advice to discuss the state of the draft over at the main article's talk page two weeks ago. However, no other editor had responded over the two weeks, and I have not been able to gain consensus about whether contents of the draft should be merged as suggested by the reviewer, or if any other editors are willing to assist in the editing process. I am also unsure about the approximate number of reliable secondary sources that would be acceptable for the draft to pass submission, as information in most sources are combined with the announcement of the DNA World Tour or only solely mentioned during a television performance of said song.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. — Angryjoe1111 ( talk) 06:48, 30 December 2019 (UTC)

I have a bit of a puzzle that I would like some advice on, assuming things play out as I expect. I have nominated a stub biography article for deletion on the basis that the person mentioned does not meet notability guidelines. However, I have then discovered that this article is one of thousands (about 6,000 in all) created by one editor, and many of these stubs are little more than one line long, although usually with a couple of references (often the same ref for all of them).
So a sample of these pages are the Archdeacon of Raphoe, and one editor had the idea of redirecting one of these stubs to the Archdeacon of Raphoe page and placing the information there. Thus I collated all the information from all the stubs and put them into a table on the Archdeacon of Raphoe page. 20 stubs are now copied in their entirety into that page, bringing all the information into one place, preserving the editor's work but allowing something more encylopaedic.
My question is this: If the AfD goes through (i.e. editors agree the stub is for a non notable figure), and if we all agree that the Archdeacon of Raphoe page is a good way of going forward, is there a quick way to nominate the 19 other stubs to be deleted and redirected en masse? And bearing in mind that there are 6,000 of these stubs, is there a repeatable way we can do this for other similar collections (bearing in mind that a few of these biographies will be notable after all, and thus should stand in their own right)?

When I read the page titled "CNR Bridge", I changed it to "Queensborough CNR Bridge", then "Queensborough SRY Bridge", only then realising the brief article which said the bridge linked to Queensborough on Lulu Island, was not actually on the subject of the Queensborough rail bridge, but was in fact regarding the CNR bridge downstream (not into Queensborough) that links onto the Richmond part of Lulu Island. The CNR Bridge should be the "Lulu Island CNR Bridge" Is there way of actually deleting my move changes.

Thank you all!
Although it might be a big bite for a newbie, I am very hungry to start a major editing of this article. Its author has made an excellent effort, and is unbiassed in that his main source is the actual AR of the IPCC. Unfortunately, after over a century of increasingly intensive study, every reputable scientific organization has declared that the existence of this phenomenon is a certainty-unprecedented for scientists-the majority of Americans refuse to accept the reality of Global Warming. This is in my opinion due to two factors:
(i) One side of this issue seems to have free access to the media to press their position (the nonexistence of Global Warming). Believe me I have spent a lot of time trying to find a valid, reliable source for their position. I have yet to find such a source.
(ii) On the side supporting the existence of Global Warming (I am neutral), the inability of the scientific community the present their conclusions about such a huge and complex phenomenon in a language readily understandable to the general public has inadvertently much of all this bias.
I feel that, as the reputation of Wikipedia as an acceptable source continues to grow, you would perform a great service for our country and planet if you were to post an article on Global Warming which is both scientifically accurate and in a non-technical language that is crystal clear to the average reader.
I just feel that, although excellently researched and written, this article does not sufficiently meet these criteria.
Last thing: there is a possibility that this article will be viciously attacked for its supposed bias and/falsehoods.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Unable to edit Wikipedia Black Holes
The subject of Black Holes has been completed for some time However the subject is not complete, and my editing skills are not great

Black Holes are an object of very condensed matter. Possibly containing atoms that have had the space removed. The mass of a Black Holes acts very much like the mass of stars, the closer you get, the greater the effects of gravity. However, because they are very condensed, objects can get much closer before colliding.
https://en.wikipedia.org › wiki › S0–102
Is one of the closest stars that we know of near Sagittarius A and has an orbiting period of 11.5 years
Closer objects would orbit in a shorter period of time and the orbit speed would be faster Somewhere near what is described at the event horizon, objects including light would orbit at the speed of light.
There is no indication that the event horizon is at the surface of a black hole Thus, any object orbiting closer to the surface, would be travelling faster than the speed of light. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Victoria7j ( talk • contribs) 13:16, 28 December 2019 (UTC)

13:32, 28 December 2019 (UTC)Names of bands/teams/groups etc. are treated as singular, unless the name also applies to the individual members of the group. An individual member of The Mentally Ill would not be referred to as "a Mentally Ill", so the band "The Mentally Ill" is treated as singular. On the other hand, members of the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Yankees, Athletics, Flying Tigers, etc. are each referred to as a Beatle, Stone, Yankee, Athletic, and Flying Tiger, respectively, so these groups are treated as is they were plural. Sanctandriensis ( talk) 13:58, 28 December 2019 (UTC)
In a recent discussion about a metallic band, I found it odd that the grammar stated: " The Mentally Ill were a punk band". I thought that the band is singular, while the members are plural? i.e. The Kingston Trio: "... is an American folk and pop music group." If you take away the "name" and merely refer to the actual organization for what it is - "band"; one would not say: "The band were ..." but "The band is ...". The Juilliard String Quartet is a classical music string quartet; not "are" a classical music string quartet - regardless of the name. Also, "Vienna Choir Boys is a choir of boy sopranos" not "are". Pentatonix is an American a cappella group in its lede. Why are certain bands like The Who described on WP in the lede as: "The Who are an English rock band" and not "The Who is an English rock band"; like " Nirvana was an American rock band"? This: " Fleetwood Mac are a British-American rock band" just does not sound right. Doesn't the same principles apply? Curious. Thanks in advance. Maineartists ( talk) 23:23, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, per the above guidelines; notable list topics are appropriate for a stand-alone list. The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been. Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable, although editors may, at their discretion, choose to limit large lists by only including entries for independently notable items or those with Wikipedia articles.

Dear Teahouse, the current draft article Draft:Jacaranda Books has now been rejected twice as '...Submission is about a company or organization not yet shown to meet notability guidelines (AFCH 0.9.1)'. This despite a growing list of references, at least some of which would appear to be of reasonable quality (independent/ secondary/ reliable etc.).

Hello everyone, can anyone help me understand why the wiki I created has been deleted? This is the second time my contribution got deleted. The reason for deletion is section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion. I must admit that my first submission was objective. But this time, I used neutral POV as per wiki suggestions so it doesn't sound like promotional (I also had someone read it to get another's perspective). Still, no luck. This makes me believe that we can't possibly create a wiki article for someone not so famous? Or maybe I did miss something? What should I do to have it approved? Please help.

Hello everybody, Hello to the community,
I'm coming from Germany and I try to include my knowledge into German Wikipedia for years. But with the English one I have some difficulties in understanding the procedure maybe... Since 24th of October 2019 there is a draft of the entry "Sayonara Player", which is also available in two other languages: /info/en/?search=Sayonara_Player
Can anybody give me some assistance on what I need to do, that the entry gets reviewed and published? My target is to include it here /info/en/?search=Comparison_of_audio_player_software where only players with an own entry are accepted.
The reason is, that I was searching for a good Linux audio player since eight years. Finally I found one this summer, but it's not well-known and I think Wikipedia could be a solution to change this situation.

Hi Captain Eek,
The discussion was archived regarding Radmila Lolly, so I am following up here. I am not clear how Radmila does not qualify as notable with the amount of coverage I included in my article draft. As far as possibly requiring some years before becoming notable, Radmila has been publicly active since 2012. I have also left out things that Wikipedia doesn't approve of (e.g. "dating a celebrity"), but said things also prove that public celebrities/influencers attend Radmila's events and that she has other known affiliates with Wikipedia pages of their own. Please, please help me as I have remained within Wikipedia's guidelines for citing/giving sources.
Carlden10, Howdy hello and welcome to the Teahouse! The main issue here is that at the moment, the community has determined (based on this discussion) that Lolly is not currently notable, i.e. they are not sufficiently written about and cannot be covered on Wikipedia. Realistically, some years may need to pass before this person does enough to make them notable to be on Wikipedia. At this time, I do not recommend you work on Lolly further. Creating a new article from scratch is one of the hardest thing to do on Wikipedia. You are likely best served by working on editing existing articles to get a feel for how Wikipedia works. Please feel free to ask any other questions you have about Lolly, or Wikipedia in general. Smooth sailing, Captain Eek Edits Ho Cap'n!⚓ 23:14, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

PR Agency: SGG Public Relationsindicating that it is directly based on a press release, and so is not independent coverage and does not count toward notability. The Women Fitness article is again an interview. So is the article from VOCE SPETTACOLO. The article from NSCMagazine again ends with
PR Agency: SGG Public Relationsand so is of no value for establishing notability. I cannot asses the article from Óyeme Magazine as it is not in English, but even if it is a high-class source, one independent reliable source is not enough. At least three are needed, and high-quality sources are particularly needed to overcome the determination made at the AfD discussion. If you want to proceed (which I advise against) drop all the interviews and Press releases and look for Independent and reliable sources that each discuss her in detail.

I just revamped the article Jim Rogers (California politician), it apparently had BLP violations so its reliable sources that covered him in depth were removed as was his referenced notability.

Ndołkah It is thoroughly appropriate to mention changes made to an article in an open AfD. I have done so several times. It is also perfectly appropriate to ping those who have commented previously, provided that you notify all of them. You should be aware that AfD discussions are not normally closed until they have been open for at least 7 full days (24 x 7 hours), so this one has a couple of days to go, at least, and sometimes they are relisted for an additional week or more. None of the conditions for a faster than usual close seem to apply in this case. You might want to look at WP:HEY as well. Thanks for your edits on this article.

I have recently come across this draft a few months ago when it was declined three times by two different reviewers due to the same editor resubmitting the article without thoroughly following advice. In the following months since I found the draft, I have added several reliable secondary sources establishing the notability of the song, while also adding primary sources to support these statements. The draft was then rejected due to the lack of secondary sources and for the same reasons as the previously declined submissions, despite adding several more reliable secondary sources.
I have since followed the reviewer's advice to discuss the state of the draft over at the main article's talk page two weeks ago. However, no other editor had responded over the two weeks, and I have not been able to gain consensus about whether contents of the draft should be merged as suggested by the reviewer, or if any other editors are willing to assist in the editing process. I am also unsure about the approximate number of reliable secondary sources that would be acceptable for the draft to pass submission, as information in most sources are combined with the announcement of the DNA World Tour or only solely mentioned during a television performance of said song.

I have a bit of a puzzle that I would like some advice on, assuming things play out as I expect. I have nominated a stub biography article for deletion on the basis that the person mentioned does not meet notability guidelines. However, I have then discovered that this article is one of thousands (about 6,000 in all) created by one editor, and many of these stubs are little more than one line long, although usually with a couple of references (often the same ref for all of them).
So a sample of these pages are the Archdeacon of Raphoe, and one editor had the idea of redirecting one of these stubs to the Archdeacon of Raphoe page and placing the information there. Thus I collated all the information from all the stubs and put them into a table on the Archdeacon of Raphoe page. 20 stubs are now copied in their entirety into that page, bringing all the information into one place, preserving the editor's work but allowing something more encylopaedic.
My question is this: If the AfD goes through (i.e. editors agree the stub is for a non notable figure), and if we all agree that the Archdeacon of Raphoe page is a good way of going forward, is there a quick way to nominate the 19 other stubs to be deleted and redirected en masse? And bearing in mind that there are 6,000 of these stubs, is there a repeatable way we can do this for other similar collections (bearing in mind that a few of these biographies will be notable after all, and thus should stand in their own right)?
