Sandbox page in live category
FYI, User:Eumat114/sandbox/C is showing up in the live Category:Articles needing cleanup. -- Beland (talk) 19:28, 2 June 2020 (UTC)

Deletion
Unfortunately, I think you are right. there doesn't seem to be any useful compounds for the chemical. After copying my 'work', I think I'll move it to my sandbox There is always pubChem for that kind of rare chemistry — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aera23 (talk • contribs) 07:44, 5 June 2020 (UTC)
- Aera23, thanks. I have moved the page to User:Aera23/Magnesium cyanide. Next time when you start work on an article, perhaps you should follow the instructions in this page and the notability guideline. Thanks. Eumat114 formerly TLOM (Message) 08:04, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello Eumat114! Thank you so much for testing RedWarn so far. I kindly ask that you fill in a short survey regarding the future of RedWarn and to help me visualise general user opinion surrounding certain features.

Refan
I made some edits to:
- make article less "promo-ish" and more "about notoriety"
- used a link to Bulgarian already-existing article on the factory itself
- and added some links: a link to perfume site whch reviewed a purchase of some Refans.
I hope this is fine now Uchyotka (talk) 08:11, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
- Uchyotka, okay it's not promotional now. (I might even have erred on my initial tagging.) But most of the sources aren't independent (WP:IS); they are very closely related to the subject. So notability has not yet been demonstrated, meaning that it will likely be deleted later (unless things change). You also need to know how special this company is (WP:CCS). Cheers, and happy editing! I hope to see these issues solved! Eumat114 formerly TLOM (Message) 08:21, 15 June 2020 (UTC)
- @Uchyotka: In light of this I'm gonna wait a while until the issues are resolved. Ask me on my talk page if you have questions. Eumat114 formerly TLOM (Message) 08:24, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for fixing that! I'm trying to make more Chinese railway pages but they're really fiddly so there may be more mistakes.NemesisAT (talk) 13:18, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Congress of Russian Americans (possible vandalism)
Well, then just translate this: https://ru.wiki.x.io/wiki/Будзилович,_Пётр_Николаевич thats the founding guy. Father - Nazi colloborationist, himself - Holocaust denier, anticommunist and so on.

I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on User:Sandip.whitelion/sandbox/Whitelion Systems PVT. LTD.. I do not think that User:Sandip.whitelion/sandbox/Whitelion Systems PVT. LTD. fits any of the speedy deletion criteria because As a somewhat plausible draft of an article, this is not "unrelated to Wikipedia's purposes" and U5 does not apply.. If you wish, you may try using the simple proposed deletion (PROD) process, or the full articles for deletion (AfD) process, instead. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 14:52, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
- DESiegel, thanks, but why is AFD or PROD mentioned? Isn’t it a user page that fits mfd? Eumat114 (Message) 15:16, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
- Because the template I use for such notifications, {{Speedy-Warn}} was designed mostly for speedy tagging of articles. I should probably modify it to mention alternatives. Thank you. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 15:36, 10 August 2020 (UTC)
- DESiegel, upon further investigation I found that the username violates policy (note Whitelion in username) and that there was an extra full-stop before the "If you wish". Really trivial issues, but might be useful nonetheless :) Eumat114 (Message) 09:20, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
- I think that "User:Sandip.whitelion" is not a violation, I think it falls squarely into the approved "Mark at Arcola" pattern, in which a company name is combined with an individual name or handle to indicate a specific individual affiliated with a company. The templates warning users of improper names specifically invite using such names, as does the username policy. I know because I edited the templates after gaining consensus to make them conform with the policy in this regard. (Unless "Sandip" is also part of the company name, of course.)

WikiCup 2020 September newsletter
The fourth round of the competition has finished, with 865 points being required to qualify for the final round, nearly twice as many points as last year. It was a hotly competitive round with two contestants with 598 and 605 points being eliminated, and all but two of the contestants who reached the final round having achieved an FA during the round. The highest scorers were
Bloom6132, with 1478 points gained mainly from 5 featured lists, 12 DYKs and 63 in the news items;
HaEr48 with 1318 points gained mainly from 2 featured articles, 5 good articles and 8 DYKs;
Lee Vilenski with 1201 points mainly gained from 2 featured articles and 10 good articles.
Between them, contestants achieved 14 featured articles, 14 featured lists, 2 featured pictures, 87 good articles, 90 DYK entries, 75 ITN entries, 95 featured article candidate reviews and 81 good article reviews. Congratulations to all who participated! It was a generally high-scoring and productive round and I think we can expect a highly competitive finish to the competition.
Remember that any content promoted after the end of round 4 but before the start of round 5 can be claimed in round 5. Remember too that you must claim your points within 10 days of "earning" them. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. It would be helpful if this list could be cleared of any items no longer relevant. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to keep down the review backlogs!
