Requesting some article expansion help
Greetings @Simeon

Hi, I am User:Bookku, On Wikipedia I engage in, finding information and knowledge gap areas in Wikipedia and promoting expansion of related drafts and articles. Came across one of your article Rinata Sultanova of Kazakhstan.

Requesting your visit to the article Women and bicycling in Islam and help expand the topic areas if you find any of topics interesting. Wish you very happy Wikipedia editing.

Thanks and warm regards &#32;Bookku   (talk) 10:27, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Hi Simeon. Just letting you know when adding Wikiproject banners to talk pages, there is a general rule to wrap them with Template:WikiProject banner shell if there are three or more as I've done here for example. Cheers! -- DB 1729 talk 17:45, 18 March 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for that, I'll add these as well in the future, Cheers! Simeon (talk) 17:49, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

Former Pro Soccer Player
Hey Simeon!

I hope you're doing well.

I saw you've edited quite a few pages and articles, including articles related to the Lebanese Women's Football National team players. I have drafted a page for a former player and would appreciate your help in reviewing and moving it from the sandbox please.

User:LegacyAuthor2.0/sandbox

Many thanks. LegacyAuthor2.0 (talk) 01:03, 25 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, I hope you're doing well as well.
 * It seems that a few hours after you asked this question, the article for creation submission was declined due to a lack of significant coverage to qualify for an article. I'm not aware of football / soccer notability guidelines (if any) but it's not clear to me either why this person qualifies for an article.
 * The article itself is detailed, referenced and describes her life, but, the article mentions at least on three occassions that she focused on her studies / medical career rather than her sports career, so she doesn't appear to be notable for her sports career. Many athletes or sports competitors become notable after competing in senior-level matches or winning senior-level medals. See also: Notability (sports) for sports notability guidelines.
 * She may become notable in the future for her medical career but at the moment I think neither areas of her life would be sufficient to qualify for an article. Simeon (talk) 17:17, 25 July 2023 (UTC)

امیررضا برزویی ، Amirreza Borzooeichaghagolani
Hello, Can you Creat Article in English about Amirreza Borzooei an Iranian Karateka. In persian Available ( امیررضا برزویی), but in English No , if you can translate to English with many Thanks. Rezarahmani24 (talk) 06:07, 27 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi, I'm not able to read Persian or to translate it to English on my own but from what I gather using Google Translate, he hasn't yet won senior level medals so he would not yet be notable for an article on the English Wikipedia (unless there are other reasons for notability). So I think we'd have to wait until he wins senior level medals at (international) competitions - in that case someone will notice eventually and create an article on the English Wikipedia.

Draft:2024 US Olympic Team Trials (wrestling)
Hey Simeon, how you doing? It's been a while. I'm working on this article for the upcoming Olympic Trials for wrestling, but I'm having an issue with the brackets at 65 and 86 kilograms.

At these weight classes, 2023 World champion at 70 kilos (non-olympic weight) Zain Retherford (65 kg) and 2023 World bronze medalist at 92 kilos (non-olympic weight) Zahid Valencia (86 kg) will sit in the semifinals of their respective brackets, which would look something like this and like this.

I'm having trouble replicating this into 65 kilos and 86 kilos in the draft I'm working on. Do you happen to know a way to help replicate this into Wikipedia format? Thank you! Tomascr7 (talk) 20:17, 14 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, I'm not sure that's possible with the current templates (at least I haven't seen it done on other pages). It may be an idea to use  in the   template and then place the remaining matches below it? A different idea could be to add a separate match, like done for the Olympic wrestle-off match on this page (below the Repechage), and clarify with text / a footnote that this match took place in between the other matches. Simeon (talk) 20:33, 14 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Hey! Yea I haven't seen it before either, what I did for the last cycle was tweaking the original brackets so the matchups would be the same and that way I could add the wrestlers who went right into the semis, like at 74 kilos (2020), but there's like twice the amount of entries now and therefore that's not possible. I reached out to a guy that created the brackets for last year's World Championships to see if he can help, if he can't, I'll probably do what you said last and try to make it as non-complicated as I can for the reader.

Re: : these categories should not be tagged with WP Film. Instead, they should be tagged with. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 23:54, 26 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for letting me know - I tagged them that way because of the word "film" in the category name but I see now that the scope of that WikiProject indeed excludes people. I'll update those categories accordingly. Simeon (talk) 17:01, 27 June 2024 (UTC)

class & importance parameters on categories
When tagging categories, could you please remove blank class, cat, category, blank importance, NA parameters (case-insensitive) (e.g. -> )? Edits that do only this are WP:Cosmetic, so should not be done on their own in large number, so bundling them with your significant edit like a WikiProject tag is ideal. There was also a discussion about the use of 1, which ended with the bots not using it, and it being removed from the documentation. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 17:51, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
