Call for Wikipedians in Residence in Africa
Hello,

I hope you are well and thriving!! WikiAfrica has just put out a call for two Wikipedians in Residence. One in Cape Town at WikiAfrica, at the Africa Centre; and the other for WikiAfrica Cameroon in Douala, at doual’art. If you are interested, please contact either Marilyn [marilyn.doualabell@undefineddoualart.org] for the WikiAfrica Cameroon call or Isla [islahf@undefinedafricacentre.net] for the WikiAfrica position in Cape Town.

If you are not interested in applying, I would be very grateful if you could spread this call far and wide among your networks to ensure that both projects get excellent candidates. Here is the link for the information page: http://www.wikiafrica.net/two-wikipedians-in-residence-for-africa/

Best regards, Islahaddow

Dricus du Plessis moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Dricus du Plessis, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

 * Hi Ossewa, The subject who is a mixed martial arts fighter would need to have at least 3 fights in top tier promotion (UFC/Invicta) to meet WP:MMABIO guidelines. At the present, he has only 2 fights and need to have another one in the future to meet the guidlines. I am putting the page in my watchlist and will move to the main space when he is notable. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia(talk) 00:30, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of PlanetTech


The article PlanetTech has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Non-notable news aggregator website. No evidence this was ever notable - sourcing was internal UCL promotional links, non-RSes, contributor blogs and one questionable source still in the article. A WP:BEFORE shows no RS coverage at all. There's no evidence this ever was notable, under WP:NWEB, WP:CORP, WP:GNG or any other notability guideline."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
