About Me

Hello, I'm Princess of Ara.

What I do here

🌸The articles I've created or expanded are listed here.

🌸I work mostly in the Nigeria-related space because that’s where I come from and am most familiar with.

🌸I’m also currently trawling through the 'Orphaned' and 'Notability Unclear' sections in this list of Nigerian articles that require clean up. An alarming 40% of the 12,000

WP:NAIJA

articles require cleanup. You can help too.

🌸My initial efforts on Wikipedia have been geared towards content creation but I’ve noted that the Nigerian space has both a dearth of content creation and maintenance/improvement. I’m trying to balance both sides of the coin. I’d however like to note that a dearth of content does not mean non notable topics should remain in main space. Standards need to be adhered to.

🌸I also try to ensure that movies have posters in the infobox and biographies have images where possible. You can ping me to do an image search on notable subjects and I’d be happy to help.

🌸I don’t typically go out in search of vandalism or

sock puppetry

but I revert the vandalism I come across on my watchlist and typically review suspicious behaviour when I come across it. I understand the motivation behind sock puppetry in new users because I made the same newbie mistake. Having the illusion of multiple people interested in a subject creates a mirage of importance, but unfortunately that’s not how Wikipedia works.

🌸When I see new users on my watchlist, I welcome them using twinkle. New contributors are always welcome and I’m always happy to help.

🌸I create lots of redirects for alternative search terms.

🌸It will be nice to have at least one good article under my belt but I don’t have the time or headspace right now. I want to attempt to take Fela Kuti to GA someday.

Full Disclosure

🌸I engaged in sockpupptery as a novice editor, without knowing it was against the rules. I now edit only on this account after my appeal was granted to continue editing by Arbcom. My past account is Kemmiiii

🌸I will like to declare a conflict of interest with Nigerian Association of Resident Doctors (NARD) as I am a member of the association.

🌸I have an alternate account; Princess of Ara Training.

	Brilliant new article about NdaniTV. The company was a star of Wikipedia as for many years it published its material on line with a free to use license. Look at the great set of pictures that are available on line that came from NdaniTV. Sadly their policy changed but a great contribution to open info for Nigeria. Keep up the great work.

The Original Barnstar

I do appreciate your in-depth understanding of the Wikipedia deletion and notability standard, plus your effort to reflect every bit of this knowledge on a certain article that has been selected for deletion, but under certain conditions, meets the requirement for notability articles.

I really appreciate the fact that you have strongly pointed out those conditions.

Keep doing what you are doing. TJO28 (talk) 22:55, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Your contributions to the Nigerian film portal and articles are remarkably pure. I've noticed your efforts on the Naija cleanup pages list and I'm also volunteering to assist in reducing the backlog. Your aspiration to take Fela Kuti to GA status or isn't it a GA yet. However, will soon be realized. I, Safari Scribe, proudly present you with the Tireless Contributor Barnstar, recognizing your unwavering passion to this online encyclopedia. Safari Scribe^{Edits! Talk!} 07:13, 29 April 2024 (UTC)
