Hello, welcome to your New Page Patrol School page! Every person I instruct will have their own page on which I will give them support and tasks for them to complete. Please make sure you have this page added to your watchlist. Your NPP School page has been specifically designed according to you and what you have requested instruction in - for that reason, please be as specific as possible when under my instruction, so that I know the best ways to help you (and do not be afraid to let me know if you think something isn't working).

Make sure you read through Notability as that's the knowledge which most of the questions I ask you and tasks you do will revolve around.

This page will be built up over your time in the Academy, with new sections being added as you complete old ones. Each section will end with a task, written in bold type - this might just ask a question, or it might require you to go and do something. You can answer a question by typing the answer below the task; if you have to do something, you will need to provide diffs to demonstrate that you have completed the task. Some sections will have more than one task, sometimes additional tasks may be added to a section as you complete them. Please always sign your responses to tasks as you would on a talk page.
 * How to use this page

If both the instructor and student make completing the course curriculum a top priority, it will generally take around a month to go through the entirety of the curriculum. This pace is not required or necessarily expected, but rather is provided in order to give participants an idea of what to expect.

Notability
 PART 1 

When patrolling or reviewing an article, you may often come across articles do not meet the WP:N guidelines, but the editors make the edits in good faith. Please read WP:AGF and do not WP:BITE the new editors.


 * A. Notability is a test guidelines to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article in Wikipedia mainspace. Please read What Wikipedia is not, General Notability Guidelines, Specific Notability Guidelines, Stand-alone list before completing the following tasks.

General notability guidelines
1. In your own words, why it is important to WP:AGF and not WP:BITE new editors.

Answer: Most of the newcomers who join Wikipedia isn't necessarily familiar with the WP:POLICIES, followed convention and culture of Wikipedia. We all are, somepoint in the past, newcomers ourselves. Since Wikipedia a community of WP:VOLUNTEERs, every newcomers has potency to make significant contribution to the project and biting newcomers, who contribute in good faith, isn't helping anyone, rather it's discouraging them from making valuable contributions in future. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 10:12, 11 October 2021 (UTC)


 * ✅. Neweditors might not aware of Wikipedia guidlines/policies and if the edit is not helpful but contribute in good faith, it is best to behave in a civilized manner to explain the edit instead of biting the editor so the new editors would learn about Wikipedia and continue to edit Wikipedia. Cassiopeia   talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

2. In your own words, how is notability defined in Wikipedia?

Answer: General notability in Wikipedia is defined as a topic which had received a significant coverage i.e. a WP:RELIABLE WP:SECONDARY source material, which is WP:INDEPENDENT of the subject being mentioned, gives WP:DUE weightage to a topic which the subject addresses. Although, there are subject specific guidelines, the general idea of notability remains the same. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 10:23, 11 October 2021 (UTC)


 * . In Wikipedia, notability means "worthy to be noted" - it is defined as a topic is "presumably" notable for stand-alone article or list if (1) it has received significant coverage with reliable sources that are independent of the subject where by the sources talk "directly" about the subject in depth and in length and not only passing mentioned and (2) it is not excluded under the What WP:Wikipedia is not policy. Cassiopeia  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

3. Does a step by step instructions on how to "Change a car tire" considered a notable topic in Wikipedia?

Answer: No, Wikipedia is WP:NOTGUIDE. Although inclusion of car tire as a descriptive one is within the context of an encyclopedia, having a "guideline", "tutorial" or "step by step instruction" goes against what an encyclopedia is and violates Wikipedia's policies. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 10:31, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅. Cassiopeia  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

4. What are the differences between A WP:GNG and a specific notability guidelines? how do we determine which one to use when patrolling an article?

Answer: I view subject specific notability as a subset or extension to general notability guidelines. Some topics, such as a dedicated article on a book or a WP:COMPANY, have a specific community consensus which gets added as policies to help patrollers determine notability. When patrolling an article, once we figured which subject specific category an article falls into, we shall consider those specific guidelines along with WP:GNG to estimate notability. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 10:47, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅. Both can be used when patrolling but those subject falls under SNG/SSG (sport specific guidelines) but fails to meet the WP:GNG guidelines would sometimes nominated for deletion WP:AfD for discussion to determine the status of the article and often time the aritcles would be voted for keep as some subject would hard to meet the indepdend sources requirement such as WP:NACADEMIC. (We will cover AfD in later assignment). Cassiopeia  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

Specific notability guidelines
5. If an editor creates an article about "2024 Summer Olympics" in 2019 without providing any sources, is the subject considered not notable and why?

Answer: This specific article falls under WP:SPORTSEVENT and WP:NEWSEVENT categories, hence I shall consider those subject specific relevant policies. If there is no verifiable reliable sources cited in support of the event, it goes against Wikipedia's policies on notability. Since Wikipedia is not a WP:CRYSTALBALL, every WP:FUTUREEVENT must meet notability criteria. So, yes, the subject is not notable. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 11:04, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅. However, for such reputable event for 2024 we would be able to find plenty of sources to support the subject (the event). As a good practice, if the reviewer familiar with the subject, we would find sources and place it in the article (inline citation) (I have done it countless of time), so the article can be accepted and place it on the main space of Wikipedia. Cassiopeia  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)


 * B.  Without considered of sources/content policies and review just based on "subject specific notability" (SSN) "alone" for sake of the exercises below,  please answer if the subject meets the SSN guidelines, based on the given content below, and specify under (1) which notability criteria they meet or fail (example - MUSICBI#1 if certain sub set of criteria is applicable) and (2) reasons/explanations.

6. A New York city based 2021 start up software company, specializing in data mining, has just received a USD 200K investor fund.

Answer: Does not meet WP:CORP notability. Because, numeric figures like funds doesn't establish notability. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 11:28, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

7. Tagir Ulanbekov who is a Ultimate Fighting Championships fighters with the undefeated mixed martial arts record of 10-1.

Answer: Does meet WP:ATHLETE notability. Because, as per WP:NMMA, Ulanbekov fought more than three professional fights and Ultimate Fighting Championships meets WP:MMATIER top-tier MMA organization criteria. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 11:33, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * Subject fails WP:NMMA for not secure at least 3 fights under top tier promotion. At the moment he has only one fight under UFC. Cassiopeia  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

8. A upcoming action drama title "Suleiman the Great" based on the the life of Suleiman the Magnificent, was reported will be in production in December 2021 and to be released on August 2022 in the cinemas.

Answer: Does meets not WP:NTV notability. Because, as per WP:TVSHOW, a series or drama only meets notability if it had already started fliminig. But since the report only states will be in production in December 2021, it doesn't meet the criteria. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 11:46, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * ✅ If the action drama is a film, it is also fails WP:NFF - it is because the production start date in December 2021. Cassiopeia  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

9. A political candidates, without any previous or current political position, who is running for November 2021 election for a Senator position in United States with multiple local newspapers coverage of his candidacy.

 * ✅. Fails WP:POLITICIAN as just running for a position is not enough. Cassiopeia</b>  talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

10. A singer who self produced his first album in May 2020 and his songs are listed in Spotify.

Answer: Does not meet WP:NMUSIC notability. Because, as per WP:NALBUM#1, self-published works of a singer isn't notable, since they also fail WP:ENTERTAINER criteria on WP:BIO notability. The subject also fails WP:SINGER#1 since they only produced self produced album. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 12:00, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

They also casted with multiple singers, such as Selena Quintanilla-Pérez and sung in notable songs and music videos. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 12:29, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
 * - WP:NSONG is about the song and not the singer. Subject meets WP:ENTERTAINER - 1,2,3; WP:SINGER - almost all criteria and WP:NACTOR as she has featured in major roles in many movies.<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>   talk  04:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

Answer: Since Wikipedia is not a platform for original thoughts, any readers of the encyclopedia should be able to verify where the piece of information that's included comes from in order to trust that it comes through a reliable medium. It's also important to WP:NPOV, one of the core content policies. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 22:12, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 4. Please explain in your own words why the content claimed needs to be verified?
 * ✅. Content needs to verifiable so we may know where the info/source from for we could know if the source is independent and/or reliable; however, NPOV has nothing to do with verifiability. (note: We will discuss NPOV in Assignment 3).<b style="font-family:Georgia;font-size:105%;color:#FF8000"> Cassiopeia</b>   talk  09:31, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Answer: The Washington Post is reliable per WP:RSP, but it's owned by Nash Holdings LLC, the company now owned by Jeff Bezos, hence it's neither independent of Nash Holdings LLC nor Bezos.

Frank Lloyd Wright (June 8, 1867 – April 9, 1959) was an American architect, interior designer, writer, and educator. Wright believed in designing structures that were in harmony with humanity and its environment, a philosophy he called organic architecture. His creative period spanned more than 70 years. He works includes The Guggenheim, swirling, snail-shaped museum in the middle of Manhattan. Fallingwater, which has been called "the best all-time work of American architecture." This is one of Wright's most famous private residences (completed 1937), was built for Mr. and Mrs. Edgar J. Kaufmann, Sr., at Mill Run, Pennsylvania. Constructed over a 30-foot waterfall, it was designed according to Wright's desire to place the occupants close to the natural surroundings. The house was intended to be more of a family getaway, rather than a live-in home.

Hannibal Barca was a Carthaginian general and statesman who is widely considered one of the greatest military commanders in history. His father, Hamilcar Barca, was a leading Carthaginian commander during the First Punic War (264–241 BC).

Answer: Yes. Per WP:COMMONNAME, we're advised to use a title that's commonly used in prominent English-language sources. Thus, the article needs to be renamed "Hannibal". WikiLinuz ( talk ) 01:07, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

Answer: Per WP:BLPRS, the In April 2019, McGregor is the father of Terri Murray's son [...] should be removed since it doesn't include any inline citations. Per WP:BLPCRIME, accusations, investigations and arrests do not amount to a conviction, thus unless convicted, the information should not be included. Also, per WP:BLPREMOVE, we should include high-quality sources as defined by WP:RSP to cite the accusations, and avoid using poor sources. WikiLinuz ( talk ) 01:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
