Think we have old shocks back. A few times a year we have new editors saying the same thing Talk:North Korea. Wonder if we should work on the body of the article as it seems clear thoses not fammilar with terms think its a mess. Will do a rewrite of the government section and propose it for inclusion. What we seem to have is people saying it dont see the word "Hereditary" in the body...seems clear many dont understand that absolute monarchy, dynastic or cult of personality ARE terms of art.

 * Usually you upload a non-free file under a fair use license using the file upload wizard, but for some reason the Spanish Wikipedia does not have that page. In fact, it is one of the only Wikipedias that does not have that page. Yue 🌙 04:00, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Your WikiCup submission: Template:Did you know nominations/East Turkestan Revolutionary Party
Hi Yue, and thanks for participating in the WikiCup. I noticed that you claimed points for Template:Did you know nominations/East Turkestan Revolutionary Party, but the article does not seem to have appeared on the Main Page yet. In the future, please note that points cannot be granted until the article has actually been featured on the main page, as per WikiCup/Scoring. – Epicgenius (talk) 14:59, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

Iroquois -> Haudenosaunee Proposal
Hi Yue, it appears that you many have initiated a proposal to shift the name for the page for the Haudenosaunee Confederacy from "Iroquois" to "Haudenosaunee" in the past couple years? Is that correct? If so, I would support you when this proposal inevitably arises once more.

Thanks! Younvrknow (talk) 20:03, 1 February 2024 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your message of support.
 * You may or may not agree with my reasoning, but: A lot of the same old crowd were quick to jump to the idea that no new arguments or evidence had been brought up, but it is clear that in recent years, most reliable sources have opted to call the Haudenosaunee by the name they call themselves and not a corruption of a French exonym. Unfortunately, I do expect future proposals by anyone else to be prematurely closed by another ignorant bunch who consider policies like WP:COMMONNAME but not within the context of present societal and statistical trends. This was not an issue with similar changes to Ukrainian names a few years back, but of course (white) settlers in the Americas still want to own the right to name Indigenous peoples like they want to own the right to steal Indigenous lands.
 * I think that most likely the article will be moved in the future by community consensus, but that consensus will be a long way's away, when the arguments are taken more seriously than an immediately dismissal and a series of insults directed at the proposer. Racism is on Wikipedia, and it sucks. Yue 🌙 20:52, 1 February 2024 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the detailed response. I appreciate the background.
 * I think that the name used by a majority of the nations in external  facing publications or official documents should be the term used by Wikipedia. I took a cursory look at the various Haudenosaunee government websites yesterday, and it appeared that the preferred term is Haudenosaunee. (The major exception was the Seneca in Cattaraugus/Allegany.) I'm sure this opinion does not align with Wikipedia policy.
 * It's unfortunate to find this proposal is controversial; I hope community consensus arrives sooner than later. If you or another has the spoons to raise this proposal again, don't hesitate to let me know. I will support. Younvrknow (talk) 20:41, 2 February 2024 (UTC)

About your closure of Peer review/Hunza–Nagar Campaign/archive1
Hey Yue! Thanks for taking the time to review this article. I wanted to ask why you decided to close the discussion, as there's been very little time since the last activity on the page. You should have waited at least two weeks according to WP:PR/RP, but PRs are very often open for longer than that. Would you be able to revert your closure to give the nominator a larger window to receive comments from other editors? —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 00:11, 27 February 2024 (UTC)


 * My bad; I thought the window was one week. I must have misread. Yue 🌙 04:31, 27 February 2024 (UTC)
 * No worries, and thanks for reopening it! In general, I wouldn't worry too much about closing PRs due to inactivity, especially when relatively little time has passed since the nomination. It can often take a long time for editors to come around and post comments, so to a certain extent there is value in leaving them open for a few months, and no real downside. A few editors check on the older nominations if they haven't seen any discussion in a while, and there's also a bot to take care of the old nominations in case we don't get to them. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 04:41, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

WikiCup 2024 March newsletter
The first round of the 2024 WikiCup ended at 23:59 (UTC) on 27 February. Everyone with at least 30 points moved on to Round 2, the highest number of points required to advance to the second round since 2014. Due to a six-way tie for the 64th-place spot, 67 contestants have qualified for Round 2.

The following scorers in Round 1 all scored more than 300 points:


 * , who has 916 points mostly from one FA on John Littlejohn (preacher), 15 GAs, and 16 DYKs on a variety of topics including New Zealand coinage and Inuit figures, in addition to seven reviews
 * , who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
 * , who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
 * , who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
 * , who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
 * , who has 345 points from one FA on OneShot, one DYK and two reviews

In this newsletter, the judges would like to pay a special tribute to, who unfortunately passed away this February. At the time of his death, he was the second-highest-scoring competitor. Outside the WikiCup, he had eight other featured articles, five A-class articles, eight other good articles, and two Four Awards. Vami also wrote an essay on completionism, a philosophy in which he deeply believed. If you can, please join us in honoring his memory by improving one of the articles on his to-do list.

Remember that any content promoted after 27 February but before the start of Round 2 can be claimed in Round 2. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

sfn?
Hello. I appreciate you explaining specifically why a source was not needed there, as I was not aware of this policy. But Could I ask why you suggested to use a sfn in the infoboks instead of a normal reference? What sets them apart? Genabab (talk) 20:39, 16 March 2024 (UTC)


 * helps reduce redundancy by having footnotes all point to one instance of a given source, so that things don't get cluttered, and the article is easier to edit. Remsense  诉  20:42, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
 * The question was less about sfn in general and more about it's use in the infobox. @Yue suggested I use it in there instead of a regular citation for specifically the infobo for the WPK page (or at least, that's how I interpreted it) Genabab (talk) 23:16, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
 * All the existing footnotes for the Workers' Party of Korea article are shortened. The template "Use shortened footnotes" was added to the article a while ago, hence its use. There is no content-specific reason that requires the Workers' Party of Korea article in particular to use sfn; it's just good practice to use sfn. Because it's already an established practice for that article, we ought to continue it. Yue 🌙 00:36, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
Hello ,

Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to, who led with over 2,300 points.

Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.

Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.

It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!

2023 Awards won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.

Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.

Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.

Reminders:
 * You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
 * Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
 * To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Alex Counts
I must say that I am somewhat shocked. While I was still writing on the Talk page the reasons why this article has the value to exist, it has already been deleted, destroying the work of two hours.

Here are again the reasons for not deleting the page:

This page should not be speedily deleted because Timothy Ogden's book chapter clearly demonstrates that Counts played an important role in the development of the whole Grameen project.

My other reason for writing this bio was that while researching on social entrepreneurship, I found Counts' book on several lists, and found it most helpful.


 * https://www.forbes.com/sites/rhettpower/2019/06/30/best-books-for-social-entrepreneurs/
 * https://blog.candid.org/post/16-free-nonprofit-books-for-your-nonprofit-reading-list/
 * https://shepherd.com/best-books/social-entrepreneurship

Sorry that I did not initially include these links in the text, but I was not prepared that something like this would happen.

This in my view vastly overly speedy deletion has really shattered my trust in Wikipedia. Hannoscholtz (talk) 23:16, 27 April 2024 (UTC)


 * If you would like to recover the content of the deleted article, you may put in a request at Requests for undeletion. The article Alex Counts was not tagged for deletion by me and subsequently deleted by an administrator solely because there was a lack of reliable sources. Another major reason was because the article was purely promotional; Wikipedia is not a web host for professional profiles. This isn't LinkedIn.
 * Again, you can still recover your work on the article through Requests for undeletion and have it moved to your user spaces, but you will not be successful in drafting or publishing the article for public readership unless you completely reword and restructure the article and cite sources that are not blogs or books by other businesspeople in the same industry. Yue 🌙 23:36, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I modeled the article on what I have seen on many other Wikipedia pages on researchers and was happy to put together a bio that for me seemed to conform to normal practice. Extracting citations from outside literature was postponed to a second step (hoping to get feedback in between), but I have learned now that it has to be first.
