Edit this box

I was looking through the GAN page and noticed this article was still stub-class. Per Wikipedia:Good article criteria#What cannot be a good article?, stubs cannot be GAs. I think it's a jerk move for reviewers to quick fail articles where a lot of work has been put it just because the article's a stub. I recommend that you get the article reclassed, so that it can make the cut. It looks like you've put a lot of good work into that page. Hope the reclassifying process goes well!

Thanks for the heads up! I'll post a request to re-class shortly. I would hope that the reviewing editor would have enough sense not to quick fail the article because of the class it had before my expansion, but it's always good to eliminate potential stumbling blocks when you get the opportunity.

The article

The article Bonanza City, New Mexico you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Bonanza City, New Mexico for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

On 9 February 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Bonanza City, New Mexico, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Bonanza City, New Mexico, was founded in 1880 and largely abandoned by 1890? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Bonanza City, New Mexico. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Bonanza City, New Mexico), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.

You have my blessings for this. I'm obviously partial to the SCP Foundation, but "In Popular Culture" lists cited solely to the creative work the article topic appears in are (in my opinion) inappropriate. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 04:31, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

…but for the mean time, I'll stay IP. Again, thanks!

Thanks a lot Novov! I created the article back in 2015 when the SCP Foundation was a much smaller writing community that got just enough press coverage to meet notability requirements. Keeping an article on such a rapidly expanding community has been quite the experience, but its work I'm happy to do. Spirit of Eagle (talk) 18:49, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

For improving the SCP Foundation related articles, I have seen them in the past, they're still great, but became greater when knowledgeable users, such as you, come in. I really want to give you a barnstar, but I have seen that other users have awarded the occasion. And now with the 6000 contest ending, I would wish that the article be expanded and enhanced. Cheers - Mark 125.167.112.177 (talk) 04:59, 4 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot! I've always been a fan of the SCP Foundation and I've had the opportunity to improve Wikipedia's coverage of the creative writing community. I'm currently pretty swamped with real-life concerns, but I'm hoping to go back in and fine-tune the article as more sources become available and I have more personal time.

I suggested last year that as a joke we should replace the mainpage with a message stating "Due to recurring disruption on April 1, Wikipedia has decided to close the site for today. The encyclopedia will be available again tomorrow." Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 11:07, 2 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
