Ambrose Alli University
Hello. Your recent edit to Ambrose Alli University appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 10:27, 17 May 2021 (UTC)

Gabriel Agbonlahor
Hi. Thanks for adding sources to the Gabriel Agbonlahor article. Unfortunately, all of the changes you made had issues:
- first change: the source (BBC) is good, but it does not support the claim that it was the player's first goal of the season,
- second change: same good source, but, again, it does not support the claims made,
- third change: Agbonlahor's Soccerway profile is used, a decent source. However, it does not support the claims – Soccerway does not record assists,
- fourth change: Soccerway profile, does not support the claims. "Honour" was the correct British spelling,
- fifth change: Soccerway profile, does not support the claims.
I reverted the addition of the Soccerway references and corrected the use of the BBC one. Kind regards, Robby.is.on (talk) 18:04, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Draftifying on the suspicion of conflict on interest editing. Please pass through
Undisclosed paid editing warning
Paid advocates are very strongly discouraged from direct article editing, and should instead propose changes on the talk page of the article in question if an article exists. If the article does not exist, paid advocates are extremely strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. At best, any proposed article creation should be submitted through the articles for creation process, rather than directly.
Regardless, if you are receiving or expect to receive compensation for your edits, broadly construed, you are required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:Atibrarian. The template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Atibrarian|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}
. If I am mistaken – you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits – please state that in response to this message. Otherwise, please provide the required disclosure. In either case, do not edit further until you answer this message. Celestina007 (talk) 22:51, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
Unfortunately, you are tagging me as a "paid Advocate" which I am not. I am not in any way related to or known the subject in person. I am only interested in improving or creating new articles relating to Edo State and her people. Atibrarian (talk) 00:12, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
Please explain the UPE concerns
As outlined in the template you aren’t allowed to move the page back to mainspace until you have discussed this, it is disruptive and counter productive. Ah! I see
If it appears my new article: Benita Iyere Okogie, reflects that of a "NEWBIE". However, I am still a "NEWBIE" because I am still learning the robe of Wikipedia editing. The "emboldened heading" was a result of me typing the article in Microsoft Word before moving it to Wikipedia editor.
Mattythewhite claims are not "concrete" as the references used are accurate and reliable. I would have responded to his observations but I am not that a PRO - to respond with appropriate tags/referencing - so I just let go. I know how straining it is for me in creating these articles.
Over the past year, I have learned from errors I make while editing or creating an article. I am scared of making mistakes.
Warm Regards
Atibrarian (talk) 00:31, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Atibrarian, The "emboldened heading" was a result of me typing the article in Microsoft Word before moving it to Wikipedia editor how so? Our markup is our markup and using Microsoft word doesn’t invalidate that. However why have you move warred rather than pass the article through AFC? as advised? How also are you in possession of this file as your own work and haven’t declared a COI? Celestina007 (talk) 00:50, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
- The file might reflect as my "own" not because I owned it but because I mistakenly not use the appropriate tag - "NEWBIE" Atibrarian (talk) 01:32, 10 July 2021 (UTC)

- After acknowledging the warning on your talk page about mirrors, your very next edit, seven minutes later, was to add another link to a mirror which clearly attributes Wikipedia and links back to that exact article.
- I'm really worried about this one. Here you added a link to "info.org", which does not work. I can see in the spam blacklist log that you attempted to add a link to "google-info.org", which is a blacklisted mirror. It looks like you hit the blacklist, then added the junk ref anyway by fudging the URL. That's not super-ethical, and it was followed-up by a large copyright violation.

Wikipedia and copyright
Hello Atibrarian! Your additions to
- You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
- Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
- We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. non-free content criteriain order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted. To be used on Wikipedia, all other images must be made available under a free and open copyright license that allows commercial and derivative reuse.
- If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into either the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
- Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps described at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. See also Help:Translation#License requirements.
It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. DanCherek (talk) 19:20, 11 July 2021 (UTC)

Apologies Regarding ANI Incident
Whilst my opinion about your probable COI editing remains unchanged due to incidents such as this, your outright refusal to answer this, this & a plethora of other concerns on your TP, I want to expressly apologize to you about wrongly assuming the $2000 was a reward price instead of the grant & more-so, It wasn’t nice of me to say the article creations were financially motivated, I mistook the grant to mean cash prize, im sorry, although if I’m not mistaken Nil does say there does seem to be some incentive for creating the article financially or otherwise I really can’t tell because I recused myself from that conversation or any form of discussion that disturbs my peace of mind, I am extremely sick, I am hypertensive and my blood pressure as of 20 minutes ago read 145/109 which anyone with a medical background knows I shouldn’t be doing anything but resting so that’s that for that. Celestina007 (talk) 23:00, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- I empathize with you at this time with your health challenges.
- Don't stress yourself with many engagements, and/or engage yourself in anything that can give you unnecessary palpitations.
- You will agree with me that at this juncture you do need a break to focus more on your health and proper medical assistance.
- Going forward, you are completely misrepresenting my good intentions in this space, there are no COIs and I am not involved in paid editing. Those instances of not responding was a result of your outright rejection of my explanation when you accused me of being UPE here as your mind seems made-up.
- My journey here started with my participation in the maiden edition of the African Librarians Week and subsequent editions. In June of 2021, I enrolled WikiAfLibs Cohort 2 an adaptation of the OCLC Libraries + Wikipedia Better Together curriculum meant to equip African librarians with the requisite skills to edit and create content on Wikipedia and sister projects.
- Part of the requirements for successful completion was to draft a community outreach project to impact others with skills acquired which the ongoing editathon is the end product of the draft - training people on how to create/ edit articles on Wikipedia. Kind regards. Atibrarian (talk) 07:29, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Your edit to Bola Ikulayo has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for more information on uploading your material to Wikipedia. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted material, including text or images from print publications or from other websites, without an appropriate and verifiable license. All such contributions will be deleted. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words.

the guide to writing your first article.to help you create articles.You may want to consider using the Article Wizard
A tag has been placed on Bola Ikulayo requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Mr.weedle (talk) 07:05, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Edo State
Hello. Your recent edit to Edo State appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you. - Arjayay (talk) 12:57, 6 September 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for the notification. The subject qualifies for a stand-alone article on Wikipedia as he passes the W:GNG and is an elected political office holder. I have already submitted an article on the subject through AfC awaiting review. Best regards. Fatimah (talk) 19:41, 6 September 2022 (UTC)

Event coordinator granted
After reviewing your request for the "eventcoordinator" permission, I have temporarily enabled the flag on your account until 2023-03-01. Keep in mind these things:
- The event coordinator right removes the limit on the maximum number of new accounts that can be created in a 24-hour period.
- The event coordinator right allows you to temporarily add the "confirmed" permission to newly created accounts. You should not grant this for more than 10 days.
- The event coordinator right is not a status symbol. If it remains unused, it is likely to be removed. Abuse of the event coordinator right will result in its removal by an administrator.
- Please note, if you were previously a member of the "account creator" group, your flag may have been converted to this new group.
If you no longer require the right, let me know, or ask any other administrator. Drop a note on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of the event coordinator right. Happy editing! Salvio giuliano 17:09, 5 February 2023 (UTC)

What caused you to write about Susovan Sonu Roy? GeneralNotability (talk) 19:46, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
- Hi User:GeneralNotability!
- I trust you are doing great. I occasionally visit the request page and other WikiProjects pages to create articles. Nothing from the ordinary other than seeing the subject on the requested article list. I discovered later that I made a mistake on the subject name which was disappointing and discouraging on my part.
- Other engagements off Wiki kind of made me oblivious of the draft until another editor made some edits to it and subsequently, your inquiry made me do a deep search on the subject revealing that there have been attempts to create the article leading to spamming, socks, and investigations on different occasions.
- My attempt is not in any way related and I will be requesting its deletion ASAP going by the previously generated issues.
- Kind regards. Atibrarian (talk) 16:00, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
- Please explain your comment about how I did not "assume AGF". – bradv 00:12, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- Atibrarian, thank you for the explanation. Susovan Sonu Roy has been trying to promote himself on Wikipedia for a very long time and so I get concerned when I see somebody writing articles about him, but your explanation makes sense to me and I have no further concerns. I hope you have a great rest of your week. GeneralNotability (talk) 01:33, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

Women in Red 8th Anniversary
Women in Red 8th Anniversary | |
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap! |

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:
- Generalissima (submissions), 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
- Vami_IV (submissions), who has 790 points from two FAs on Felix M. Warburg House and Doom (2016 video game), two GAs, one DYK, and 11 reviews
- AirshipJungleman29 (submissions), who has 580 points from one FA on Hö'elün, two GAs on Mongolia-related articles, two DYKs, and five reviews
- Sammi Brie (submissions), who has 420 points mostly from nine GAs and seven DYKs on television and radio stations
- MaranoFan (submissions), who has 351 points from one FA on Holidays (Meghan Trainor song), a nine-article FT on 30 (album), and three DYKs
- Skyshifter (submissions), 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 Vami_IV (submissions), 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
