Hello, MaxnaCarta. Thank you for your work on

Nice job on the article. But then again, I would expect that from you (I didn't realize it was your article until I started to write my little blurb of encouragement).

Thanks @Onel5969!! Both for the feedback and your reviewing. What I lost most about Wikipedia is that it’s just so fun learning how to write better articles as I get more experienced so I am so grateful an experienced reviewer like you is noticing. Have a great week! MaxnaCarta (talk) 12:46, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia.

There is a crisis at Ponniyin Selvan: II (a released film) and that can only be resolved when one completes the AfC reviewing of this draft. Could you quickly do it please? Or recommend someone else? Kailash29792 (talk) 13:39, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

@Kailash29792 hey there, someone has reviewed already at AFC, I did mark the article as patrolled though. Nice work MaxnaCarta (talk) 20:58, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

Thank you, but the draft is awaiting re-review after LordVoldemort728 declined it two months ago. Kailash29792 (talk) 05:08, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

On 4 May 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article BP Refinery v Tracey, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the court in BP Refinery v Tracey upheld a decision to reinstate an employee fired by BP for posting a meme video from the 2004 film Downfall? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/BP Refinery v Tracey. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, BP Refinery v Tracey), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

@Caeciliusinhorto thank you! By the way, if you want me to email you a copy of the journal article used for much of the entry please let me know MaxnaCarta (talk) 09:00, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

The Fay article? Yes please! I've had a look and I don't seem to have access to it through any of my institutions. You should be able to email me Caeciliusinhorto (talk) 12:06, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

@Caeciliusinhorto nah it’s not accessible through the normal ways. I had to purchase it. Will send. It’s essential really given how many citations I made to it through the article MaxnaCarta (talk) 21:24, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

@Caeciliusinhorto all done. By the way, I am determined to work through any issues. If you find things to improve, I am happy to spend even more than the usual 7 day holding period to work through them. Please do let me know once you have reviewed. No rush at all. Cheers MaxnaCarta (talk) 09:45, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

On 10 May 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Tropical Snow, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

Aoidh (talk) 00:03, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello, MaxnaCarta,

It was a mistake for you to close this discussion less than 24 hours after it was opened. And it wasn't a SNOW as there were significant questions about the sources available and the Keep rationales were brief and not very complete. Please do not be in a hurry to close a discussion that is in progress as this one was. In fact, your closure may very well be reverted if the nominator lodges a complaint. Deletion discussions should run at least 7 days unless there is a pressing reason to close them early and, in this case, there wasn't. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:46, 13 May 2023 (UTC)

@Liz no worries at all. Thank you for the feedback I enjoy clerking at AFD as well as participating. I am always happy to undo a non-admin closure when asked, and I appreciate you letting me know. I have already undone the closure. I will never argue with any admin who asks me to undo a closure. If you ever see me make a mistake, please do feel free to just revert my action. However, regardless of participation I do not think I am going to be making any such early closures again because they do seem to rub people up the wrong way and that is not what I want. — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 02:47, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm sorry but this is not when SNOW argument can be used. SNOW can be argued when the matter is so obvious that there's not a slightest chance of another outcome. This was definitely not the case with this particular AfD – as you can see, sourcing was still being debated, length of media coverage was also up for a debate. Participation was still scant. Additionally, your statement implying that admin votes would somehow have more weight is incorrect – in deletion discussions, admin !votes have exactly the same weight as any other editor's, because it's the weight of arguments that matters, not account capabilities.

All in all, I'd ask you to revert your close, reopen the discussion and let it run its course. Please also never weigh admin !votes over other editors' at AfD. Thank you. — kashmīrī ^TALK 01:42, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

@Kashmiri done, and just to be clear, I did not hold an administrator is view in high regard than that of another editor. I only included that detail because I felt that given two administrators had voted keep it meant that a procedural early close, might possibly hold more appropriate. I do not weigh their arguments for keep any higher than another editor, as I know that all editors are equal at AFD.

I have undone the closure using my mobile phone as a priority. Later tonight when I am back at my desk top, I will go back over directly to the article and reinstate the AFD template. More than happy for you to reinstate this also thank you — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 02:43, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi, thank you, and sorry if I sounded a tad aggressive. It's quite possible that the article will ultimately be kept, but there are issues that need clarifying (like the very short period of media coverage or lack of compliance with

WP:NONPROFIT) and I'd prefer to have them discussed at AfD. Cheers, — kashmīrī ^TALK

02:58, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

You weren’t aggressive at all @Kashmiri. If I am going to try my hand at a close, an editor may always challenge it, especially as an NAC. Even though I don’t think it was a tragic close, it was overall a misstep to close something that early. Cheers and keep it up. — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 03:26, 14 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi @MaxnaCarta, can I ask why you added these tags to the draft? I am not a paid writer, nor do I have a close connection with the subject. I simply think, that Fifty Vinc is a notable person! That's it. And yeah, I am a bit pushy, that may be, but I try to write a good article and also try to show that the subject meet the criteria. It would be nice if you could please remove the tag, thanks. Matthew Tailor (talk) 08:04, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

@Matthew Tailor i suspect these based on my experience as an AFC reviewer. If you want then removed please visit the AFC help desk. If any other AFC reviewer wants to remove them, they can. Refer them to this comment. My decisions on that draft stand but other reviewers are able to act differently. I do not have anything further to add with that draft. Thank you. — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 09:10, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Thank you so much for your skilled, positive intervention. Fingers crossed that Australian law gets a good editor back next month. —A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 02:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Thanks @A. B.. I don’t blame those supporting a block now for doing so. I haven’t been participating in the discussions which he has obviously made frustrating for those involved. It’s been some weeks and I am really disappointed he didn’t stop. So many gaffes in a short period. However if someone has been a constructive editor previously, we should give them a red line to cross before an indefinite block. Hopefully this brings the matter to an end and assuage concerns without losing his constructive efforts for good. — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 03:59, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Please take a look at this. You are better qualified to judge the merits of this AfD than I am. We need your Antipodean legal expertise. —A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 03:15, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

I’ll have to look at this closer. I avoided it initially because the nominator was accused of misconduct without evidence and I didn’t want to get involved in a back and forth with Jack over it. This is probably a delete due to topic duplication. I’ll have a look. — MaxnaCarta  ( 💬 • 📝 ) 04:00, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Hello MaxnaCarta,

Backlog

Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.

Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.
