DYK update frequency[change source]

Hello all, there's been some back and forth at Wikipedia talk:Did you know however no results were achieved/consensus. I was wondering if we might be able to reach something here or if not if we could direct a vote (if needed) somewhere else.

If you could see the did you know nominations page, there's a large amount of approved hooks in the holding area. We agree that the solution would be to increase the DYK update frequency. Perhaps instead of twice a month we could go back to updating once a week.

Not sure if we could get the ball rolling here since at Wikipedia talk:Did you know there hasn't been much activity/updates about this.

I'd be in favor of updating DYK's once a week/every ten days so that we could knock out some hooks from the holding area. Thoughts? TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 22:47, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Support I agree, at least till the time we have a lot of accepted nominations -- 💌Ayesha46 (talk) 00:58, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support We have way too many hooks in the waiting area. QuicoleJR (talk) 17:37, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Support Every week is a good idea. Kk.urban (talk) 16:21, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment @Ayesha46:, @QuicoleJR:, @Kk.urban: & @Eptalon: Looking at it, there might be some problems in terms as who will be dedicated in updating the DYKs with a week's frequency. Another alternative soluation that I've found might be to increase the number of hooks per queue. At English Wikipedia, each queue has around 8-9 hooks. Our queues currently holds five hooks. This might be another good alternative possibly if no one's willing to update DYK every week. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 07:08, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
At this point, we have a huge number of hooks in the holding area and our queues are full. We could get around 35 weeks of DYK with the holding area and queues combined, which would last us up until the end of the year. We just need to keep in mind that the queues should have a variety of topics, especially now we have plenty of hooks to choose from! TDKR Chicago 101, it might last even longer if we go for 5 hooks per queue instead of 6, honestly I don't think it makes a huge difference but I think it is better for the hooks to last for as long as possible rather than potentially not updating for months once we have burnt through all these hooks. --Ferien (talk) 14:50, 28 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dumping ground: Paintings[change source]

Non-notable painting, but notable artist.--Please find 12 thousand votes, uh, whatever is needed to redirect this painting, to the article about the painter.--Is wikipedia now out of the woods, in regard to being spammed in regard to many articles about non-notable paintings (or have i missed spamming campaigns)? --Please also show some mercy to those that are manning the pumps, at Article-for-Delete.--I will be busy fixing other articles. 2001:2020:333:B834:E810:92FE:BC67:A72E (talk) 22:19, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Link, simple.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Fall_by_lake_with_sculpture_(Garau)&action=history. 2001:2020:321:F3EC:422:85F:34CE:2AEE (talk) 21:03, 18 March 2024 (UTC) /2001:2020:333:B834:E810:92FE:BC67:A72E[reply]

IP editor, on what grounds are you using that paintings are not notable and should be redirected to the artist instead (or even to RfD)? Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 21:45, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
On what grounds does user:PDL think that the wiki-article states notability, and demonstrates notability?
The painting exists, and so what.

If user:PDL thinks that the painting is notable, then s/he should consider asking anyone (except me), to insert the Simple-English article at English-wiki.--If my post contradicts the intentions of the project that Jimbo Wales' started, then let me know.

(However, Jimbo Wales did not start the "Yellow Pages for any painting that has been mentioned, on one page, in a book or two, by non-notable authors".)--Please also show some mercy to those that are manning the pumps, at Article-for-Delete. 2001:2020:321:F3EC:6545:D815:ECAB:E065 (talk) 02:09, 19 March 2024 (UTC) / 2001:2020:333:B834:E810:92FE:BC67:A72E[reply]
Ok, you seem to have a misunderstanding of what notability means. It doesn't mean that the article shows notability (although including all sourcing helps). We just require that there is enough third-party reliable sources that talk in depth about the subject. Whilst I'm not sure that all paintings meet the criteria, redirecting paintings as a whole as non-notable isn't really suitable.
Whilst the English Wikipedia has a really good editor base, it doesn't mean that something that is notable has to exist there for it to exist on simple. Even if Enwiki had a consensus that all paintings were defacto non-notable, that wouldn't pass through to here.
My suggestion would be one of two things - either make a list of articles that you think aren't suitable, and post them somewhere for a discussion (as we have started this thread, it seems suitable here). We can then get a discussion going and confirm if we think as a group that all/any/none of those articles are notable.
The other thing you can do, now that someone has reverted your redirect is to take that article to AfD for that same discussion I just mentioned. The issue with simply redirecting non-notable isn't so much of a problem with one article, but when you do many it's difficult to catch up and get a consensus afterwards. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 07:07, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Fa... b... (G...) (link to article that says NOTHING about notability. (Being in an art-collection, means little. However, being on permanent display at the Louvre or (permanent display at) Germany's national museum: those articles stand a fair chance of not being Deleted, for whatever reason. 2001:2020:321:F3EC:6545:D815:ECAB:E065 (talk) 02:27, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I am only responding to the last and only that comment: The person's work (or works) has: (a) become a significant monument, (b) been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) won significant critical attention, or (d) been represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums. per w:Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Creative_professionals. Nowhere does it state that it only has to be on a permanent display as the only criteria. And since you made the statement you just made, you answered my previous question that you evaded by your run on turning it on me. That was all I needed to know. Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 02:42, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please quote (and link) to w:Wikipedia:Paintings, or something relevant.--I have made no attempt at discussing the notability of Painters (so for now, I have no plan to dig into En-wiki's guidelines about Painters).--If Simple-wiki wants to become a Dumping Ground Articles about individual (non-notable) Paintings, then that is a fair enough position. However, En-wiki is no such thing.--Wiki-lawyering and such, is one thing. But the proof is in the Delete-discussions, so to speak.--See ya there, when anyone starts any Delte-discussion.--Meanwhile I will be busy working on other articles.--Good luck! 2001:2020:333:B233:905E:248F:C4EA:DD11 (talk) 19:49, 19 March 2024 (UTC) /2001:2020:333:B834:E810:92FE:BC67:A72E[reply]

Removing user rights[change source]

Should this Wiki remove special user rights (example: Rollback) from inactive users? I know we do this for administrators, but is there something like this for other special permissions? SI (talk) 18:06, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Rather than remove them from inactive users, maybe we should remove them from indeffed users. Inactive users haven't done anything to show that they can't be trusted, but blocked and banned users have. -- Auntof6 (talk) 21:49, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Auntof6 I disagree with you on this. I’m thinking of w:WP:INDEFRIGHTS where if the editor is not site banned or did not misuse their rights, then the right(s) stay in place and they do not need to go through another RfP. Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 22:03, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The reason for high tier user rights being removed for inactivity is security. Items such as rollback isn't close to dangerous enough to remove from all accounts on an activity basis. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 22:23, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
We don't remove rollback because its not a security concern with that flag. Has been discussed in the past a few times I think and there really just isn't a good reason to remove them. -Djsasso (talk) 18:05, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, I see no benefit to this. Apart from the amount of work it would take I see no reason to do it. Removing rights from banned or blocked users is fine however. If they score an unblock they should have to apply for RB again.fr33kman 18:12, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dumping ground: Furniture-thingy (designer furniture?)[change source]

Tomato sauce article[change source]

I feel like tomato sauce should be a standalone article rather than a disambiguation page. What do you guys think? We can then put a redirect to Ketchup in the hatnote. TheWikiCyclone (talk) 18:59, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure we'd want an additional article for tomato sauce if ketchup already exists. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 19:39, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Tomato sauce and ketchup are two different things though. They both are tomato-based, yes, but they are made with different ingredients. TheWikiCyclone (talk) 19:55, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at what we have, it's ocmpletely off the track:
  • Tomato sauce is made from tomatoes, and is the base for many sauces in the Italian and other cuisines. It is not pasta sauce, and it isn't limited to Italian cuisine
  • Ketchup is a spcial condiment, which likely also exists in two or three versions.
So, how should we clear this up? Eptalon (talk) 20:03, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Replaced it with a three-sentence stub, to be extended. Also, I leave cleaning up intwewiki stuff to others. Eptalon (talk) 20:28, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry I was busy, but thank you. TheWikiCyclone (talk) 22:06, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'd say split tomato sauce and ketchup, although modern ketchup is just tomatoes and sugar, it can be a variety of edible foods, like fish, and mushrooms. RiggedMint 15:13, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Getting an article to GA status[change source]

Hello.

I've come to ask about the quality of this article and what still needs to be done as an editor improved it and came recently to the talk page of the Video Games Wikiproject to ask for help getting it to GA status, and I figured I'd field opinions on it. It'd be nice to get it there soon. Derpdart56 (talk) 15:41, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The biggest issue may be that there's a lot of redlinks. Whilst the WP:GA criteria doesn't specify that all links have to be blue, there is a requirement for most links to not be red. In terms of sourcing and content it's good, but may need some additional clipping in terms of sentence structure. Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 15:47, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
As the editor he mentioned, thank you for the suggestions. Seems like MourningRainfall has fixed most of the redlinks already. QuicoleJR (talk) 19:29, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Most links are not red (as of today).--I am guessing that the ratio blue:red, is c. 3:1.--That issue seems (as of today), taken care of. 2001:2020:317:BD8D:D839:E120:3200:9764 (talk) 22:33, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can somebody please revdel the high offensive MR term from the Generation Alpha Page's history?[change source]

Is there anybody on Simple English Wikipedia whoever can take off the MR disability term in the history of that page, please?

City, state in infoboxes[change source]

In your opinion, should infoboxes for US cities include the name of the state in their header? (For example, should the infobox for Tampa, Florida have just "Tampa", or "Tampa, Florida" for its header?). I know they are usually copied from enwiki, so it's not that important for simplewiki to have its own preference, but if someone is updating the infobox, which do you think is better. Enwiki has suggestions but doesn't really follow them. Kk.urban (talk) 00:47, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Kk.urban They should have the state. Some states have the same cities. Scranton, PA and Scranton, OH; San Diego, CA and San Diego, TX. Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 05:29, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, and that's because many names were taken from Britain, where they are still used (well, not the Spanish names!) Macdonald-ross (talk) 08:45, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yep for the reasons already stated as well as there not really being any reasons I can think of not to. -Djsasso (talk) 18:52, 21 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Totally was thinking you meant page name as opposed to header on infobox for some reason. In the infobox they probably aren't as necessary because we aren't disambiguating in the infobox, but I might do it for smaller places that need to be disambiguated but not for big places that are clear what they are for example "Los Angeles". I just use what en.wiki uses since we tend to just bring over the infoboxes from there and having a difference in this case just adds complexity that isn't needed. -Djsasso (talk) 14:24, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Djsasso It still should have it in there because we pull wikidata from it so it helps to have the extra name in it as I look at the page and the infobox to make sure they are the same and contain the correct information for that specific city/town. Would we want the wrong data for a town that has a population of 200 vs. 450,000 (extravagant difference but being used as an example)?

How are you defining "the backlog"? Darkfrog24 (talk) 21:40, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Darkfrog24 It will be based on the categories. We have a lot that show as “back log” based on how that category is set. For example All BLPs needing sources which is a parent of of All BLPs needing more sources, lacking sources, no sources. More than likely start with the BLPs no sources to eliminate that by putting at least one source on the article and then work our way up. Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 21:45, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure BLP would be a good place to start. Biographies of living people require extra skill that I've not seen required for other types of articles. I've been wikiwriting for many years, and I don't know how to BLP. Darkfrog24 (talk) 02:37, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Timestamp tool[change source]

Link to image

Hi, Does anyone know what tool the clickable timestamp is ?, I can click timestamps which copies the url to my clipboard and changes the url to for instance Wikipedia:Simple_talk#c-FusionSub-20240322141400-Importer however the timestamp is grey and I hate it,

I dont appear to have this feature enabled on EN as the timestamps are black/unclickable so I have no idea what this tool is ?, Nothing's ticked in beta features and as far as I know CSS stuff's fine?, Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 14:44, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think its a beta feature, I believe this is the current version we are on here now. Likely en opted out of the change knowing them or it just hasn't happened there yet, rollouts tend to go to smaller wikis first. But I will take a look. -Djsasso (talk) 14:48, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Djsasso, Oh ..... okay .... What does grey do that black doesn't though? (sorry wasn't asking you I'm just confused with the point of it lol), I've checked WP/T and TECHNEWS and nothing seems to come up so I'll ask at EN on the offchance they might know, Thanks for your help it's greatly appreciated, Many Thanks, Warm Regards, –Davey2010Talk 15:32, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AI generated images[change source]

HI! Just wondering how we are going to deal with AI generated images being used on pages. One example of it is what I saw on Loyalakpa‎, and I just wanted to know what the wider community thinks about it.--BRP ever 12:08, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's a problem for commons, as we don't allow image uploads. Note also: detecting that an image is AI generated can be very difficult. Eptalon (talk) 12:19, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The only reason we would ever really care here is if we allow image uploads, which is certainly not happening anytime soon.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 12:33, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Eptalon, @FusionSub, I am talking about using the images. Artificial images that aren't real might not substantially represent the topic, and similar issue. And there is the problem of genuinity. BRP ever 15:52, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In my opinion, an AI image should probably be avoided if possible.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 16:00, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
to be clear: if the image serves to illustrate what it should, I don't see a problem of using an ai generated image. Ideally we should mention it is AI generated. Modern cameras and smartphones already have technologies that enhance an image, 'AI' is just another set of such technologies. Eptalon (talk) 17:16, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
To clarify my stance: I believe if there is a non-AI image that serves the exact same purpose as an AI image, the non-AI image should take priority, but AI images can be used if it represents the subject well and there isn't any non-AI version. I also agree with Eptalon that, in cases where AI generated images are used, it should be clearly stated that it was either generated by AI or digitally modified by an AI.- FusionSub (Talk page) (Contributions) 17:32, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think anything AI should be avoided. It’s taking parts of images and putting them together and no clue if any of it is copyrighted or not.

Hi! Would someone be willing to help us create a Wikipedia page for our client screenwriter/playwright Jonathan Abrams? He wrote the book for "The Heart of Rock and Roll" that is about to open on Broadway, and he wrote the screenplay for the upcoming Clint Eastwood film "Juror No. 2." Here is his IMDb Pro page: https://pro.imdb.com/name/nm3524942/credits Rubyzinner (talk) 13:34, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

this may not be notable enough, if it is, though, I think we can. (see WP:GNG) simpleist (talk) 13:47, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly I would decline this. He doesn’t meet any notability requirements and having some ask the community to create a page for their client means they want us to do the work so they can get paid. @Simpleist Thanks - PDLTalk to me!Please don't eat da 🐑! 20:03, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I promise we would not benefit from this haha! He is an independent artist and writer - his new film involves Clint Eastwood and he wrote a show that is opening on Broadway. He is mentioned on multiple wiki pages but there is no link to an outside page for him. Would love your help beginning a basic page for him. Not trying to take advantage at all haha - just not my area of expertise and figured maybe someone who enjoyed this could offer a helping hand. No need to be rude!!
