DYK nomination of Ala Stanford
Hello! Your submission of Ala Stanford at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified.

How we will see unregistered users
Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Help with draft
Hello. I have edited Draft:BrooksRehabilitation draft for review and would like some feedback before submitting for approval. You were involved in reviewing a previous draft. I would like to improve the article and am looking for help to ensure I am meeting the Wikipedia Guidelines. I believe the content is written from a neutral point of view and the sources meet the criteria. I would appreciate any direction you can provide. To be fully transparent, I have a declared COI with Brooks Rehabilitation.. Thank you Lauradavis44 (talk) 18:59, 7 January 2022 (UTC)

Gordon Glenister Article
Hi! I just wanted to ask for tips on what should I remove from the article? so that it would fit Wikipedia's standards. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by RBandojo (talk • contribs) 18:35, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. Everything in the article needs to be re-written. Terms like his revolutionary influencer marketing course and he has inspired businesses all over the globe are the type of promotional wording we reject on Wikipedia. I suggest looking at other businesspeople's articles and copying that format. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 18:37, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Clarification on Significant Coverage
Can you please clarify amount intended for Significant coverage - I will provide — Preceding unsigned comment added by User32178 (talk • contribs) 22:30, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , You need to provide at least three articles from newspapers or reliable websites that cover Melissa Nicole Quarles in depth. Not just passing mentions, not just one paragraph, in depth. If you cannot find any, then she isn't notable enough for Wikipedia. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 22:55, 14 January 2022 (UTC)

Page Deletion
Hi, You deleted my new page which was written per your exact guidelines. All academic information, nothing for sale, promotions. etc. Along with all proper sourcing. Please advise why you deleted and I need to re-do it and I am confused by what text you would have found deletion worthy. Thanks BetsyCohenPhD (talk) 01:10, 15 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. You wrote this on your userpage, which is not what the userpage is for. Please follow Help:Your first article. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 01:51, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

More journalist biographies
Would you like to help write articles for the five red links in presidents of the Professional Hockey Writers' Association? I am working on Jack Berry. Would you be interested in any of the other four? I figured you might be familiar with Scott Burnside and Mark Spector. Thanks in advance if you are interested. Flibirigit (talk) 18:31, 28 December 2021 (UTC)
 * , Mark Spector is definitely a familiar name. I would love to collaborate! HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 05:05, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
 * BTW, an article for Mark Spector has been deleted twice. As an admin, you can likely see those revisions.Flibirigit (talk) 11:37, 30 December 2021 (UTC)
 * , I am unsure if both of these authors pass our notability criteria. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:01, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I have enough information to write about Bill Fleischman and Rod Beaton. I looked into Dan Stoneking here, but I haven't researched any further. No worries if you cannot find enough for the others. Thanks. Flibirigit (talk) 23:09, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I completed Bill Fleischman. Any DYK suggestions? Thanks in advance. Flibirigit (talk) 01:48, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , I suggest something about his article following the Flyers Cup. Maybe ...that despite it being announced on the radio, journalist Bill Fleischman had no plans to write an article on the Philadelphia Flyers Stanley Cup run? Or ...that Bill Fleischman wrote an article on the Philadelphia Flyers Stanley Cup run in one day that "read like he spent weeks researching it."? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:05, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I was thinking something similar to that, and will play around with the wording. Flibirigit (talk) 02:10, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I submitted Template:Did you know nominations/Bill Fleischman. Cheers! Flibirigit (talk) 17:25, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * I completed Rod Beaton (USA Today). Don't know where to start for DYK hooks. So many interesting things but unsure how to word them. Flibirigit (talk) 17:45, 15 January 2022 (UTC)

About Toshinari Masuda's page
On January 14, you rejected Toshinari Masuda's wikipedia page. The reason why I created this page is because according to the Japanese Wikipedia, "Toshiya Masuda" is wrong and "Toshinari Masuda" is correct. I'd like to know the specific reason for your rejection. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 鈴木修一郎 (talk • contribs) 14:18, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

Simon Langley-Evans
This should meet the criteria as an academic with prestigious awards (Nutrition Society Silver Medal is the main award for the nutrition discipline in the UK); he holds a DSc (a rare second doctorate), is editor-in-chief of an academic journal. He has a Web of Science H index of 54 and has a number of highly cited papers. Would this make the grade if there are citations to some of those papers and maybe a link to PubMed search of his publications? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shakeandvac (talk • contribs) 19:54, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , that's fine. My main critique wasn't that he didn't pass WP:NPROF but the lack of citations. Every single sentence in the draft must be sourced. It does not matter if you can provide a PubMed search, if there are no sources that it will never be accepted. If you can attach sources for everything, I will gladly accept it. Please also remove the external link to the Nutrition Society.HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 19:57, 17 January 2022 (UTC)

I've updated with citations and more detail. Hopefully these improvements meet with your approval. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shakeandvac (talk • contribs) 18:27, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , I've accepted it. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 02:11, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Userpage
Could you please look at User:BetsyCohenPhD again? You deleted it as WP:G11 and WP:U5 once before... it's been re-created and looks borderline to me. I put a userpage at the top just in case it's acceptable. Thanks. --Drm310 🍁 (talk) 16:15, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , Thanks for letting me know and putting the template up. It's much better than the previous version so I think I'll let it go. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 17:54, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Colton Sissons
The article Colton Sissons you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Colton Sissons for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility.

Draft:Gerd Ulrich Nienhaus
Thank you so much for your help with editing. I have made extensive changes to Draft:Gerd Ulrich Nienhaus. I am wondering if you could check if it now meets the requirements for appropriate citations. CSNV (talk) 09:50, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , It's much better but you are still missing citations for his entire honors section. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 18:53, 24 January 2022 (UTC)

Draft Ricky Dale Harrington Jr
I saw you declined this page. I understand it does not meet the guidelines for political notability; however, I do believe it meets the category for General Notability. Electorally, he performed similarly to Marquita Bradshaw, Merav Ben-David and Paula Jean Swearengin, who each have a wikipedia page despite never having held elected offices.

I would also cite

Chris Cole (politician), 2008 Libertarian Party nominee for the U.S. Senate in North Carolina

John Monds, 2008 Libertarian Party nominee for the Georgia Public Service Commission and 2010 Libertarian nominee for Governor of Georgia

Imad-ad-Dean Ahmad, 2012 Libertarian Party nominee for the U.S. Senate in Maryland
 * , I would cite WP:Other stuff exists. Your references do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. this is an example of in-depth coverage. It is typically accepted that 3 in-depth and reliable/independent sources is enough to pass WP:GNG. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 19:57, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

That makes sense. I'll try and find two more of those — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joffejs (talk • contribs) 20:20, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
 * , I agree that he seems like a notable and interesting individual. Please message me once you have added more references and I will gladly pass it. Maybe consider nominating the article for a Did you know feature on Wikipedia's main page once it is accepted. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 20:22, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

I believe I have found two additional in-depth coverage pieces, and I have cited them in the article. I am having a little trouble formatting the citation of one of them. Let me know if these suffice
 * I left a comment. You just need to add citations to two sentences. Also, you need to add four tidals (~) at the end of your sentences to make a ping work. You don't need to ping people when you are talking to them on their own talk page but if you want to notify me anywhere else, you need to add the tidals. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 21:19, 19 January 2022 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay on editing. I've responded to your comments and resubmitted for approval. Thanks!

Editor of the Week
User:Rosiestep submitted the following nomination for Editor of the Week:
 * I nominate HickoryOughtShirt?4 to be Editor of the Week for her efforts in creating new articles and her administrative actions. Commonly, this editor is quiet and doesn't draw attention to herself, but not always, as, for example, she participated in the Women in Red panel at Wikimania 2021. At 81K+ edits, HickoryOughtShirt plugs along in true wiki fashion, building the encyclopedia. I admire what she does and how she does it; ergo this award. SusunW seconded the nomination stating, "I second the nomination. With over 1,000 articles created, clearly HickoryOughtShirt is a valuable member of the community"
