Hi! On a second thought, perhaps it would make sense to mention somewhere in the article that the junior records in 110m hurdles take place on smaller size hurdles than the regular ones. Just an idea. --Tone 09:42, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletions
Hi, you proposed a few of articles I created for deletion. After some expansion I thinks they meet WP:GNG so I removed the delition tag from Siti Noor Halimi Hussain, Nur Izzati Khairudin and Farahiyah Ridzuan. Sander.v.Ginkel (Talk) 22:29, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I need your help. I am participating in the African Stub Activity thing-a-ma-jig. I found a core stub for burkina faso, but it already exceeds 1500 characters. Do i just enter it as if i edited it or what?GrecoRomanNut (talk) 05:35, 14 November 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi, thanks for participating in the contest. Firstly, a core stub must meet one of two criteria:
 * A biography of a women
 * An article listed on WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon/Core stubs - Burkina Faso (and for other countries, it's equivalent)


 * Eye of the Storm (2015 film) meets neither of those criteria. However, that doesn't mean you can't enter it into the contest. Any article that was a stub that was then expanded to over 1500 bytes of prose is eligible. Your article is currently only 1311 bytes. This is taken from the page size tool, specifically the "Prose size (text only): 1311 B (226 words) "readable prose size"" line. If you expand it a bit more and make sure it is well referenced, your entry will be accepted by one of the judges, either (who is the main judge) or myself. Your entry on the entries page is fine although it is helpful for us if you include a diff of your changes. I also noticed that, perhaps accidentally, you added tick. That template should only be used by the judges to distinguish accepted entries. I would recommend that you have a read of WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon/Rules which details the full competition rules. The "competition and entry process" section of that page details the particulars on how to enter articles. Finally, once you have de-stubbed an article (even if it isn't long enough to be accepted — as long as it is over ~500 B+ should be fine) please add it to this list at the bottom of the main contest page. This acts as a summary of all articles approved in the contest. Thanks, — Yellow Dingo</b>&#160;<b style="color:BLUE">(talk)</b> 05:52, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Well Yellow Dingo, I am not talking about eye of the storm. I am talking about "sport in burkina faso" it is over 1600. So i just improve it? And second, Eye of the Storm is over 1500 bytes. I checked it. Could you please just tell me what i need to do for both pages to get them to be accepted? I am confused. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GrecoRomanNut (talk • contribs) 22:43, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Hey Yellow Dingo, I was wondering if Eye of the Storm is eligible now for the contest? And I was wondering when someone would approve the two posts i made on the burkina faso entries page. Could you help me? GrecoRomanNut (talk) 00:52, 15 November 2016 (UTC)

New Page Review needs your help
Hi ,

As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).

Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted. Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.

It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.
