The article
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see
- Hello, thanks for the notification, though I find the practice a bit aggressive (the fact that the translation tool is broken and had me copy/paste my work did not help). You can see there are hyperlinks to other wikis (German and French) so that should address the question of references, but I'll continue the translation and add some directly in the text. Have a nice day, Superboilles.
Other half of the discussion
I didn't want to put this on the talk page since it's more of a general thing and not article specific enough to put on there. I'm not 100% sure of the COI situation here. They have been almost solely focused on this one person, but that's not entirely unusual since it is common for someone to create initial edits solely around a specific person or narrow topic area. Their user page does have info about Pain on it, but it's also somewhat written like the start of an article. They have also stated that they're not Pain herself. On the other hand, I do get some COI vibes here but I'm not sure of what type.
It could be that they were asked to create a page on her (paid or volunteer work), but it could also be that they're just a student who wants to write an article about a professor they admire. I can definitely understand that drive, since I have a couple of professors I'd absolutely love to make an article for. One in specific just falls a bit short of the NPROF guidelines (at least the last time I checked). Basically, the only thing we can do in this situation is make sure the article is neutral and try to help the editor understand NPROF and general editing guidelines on Wikipedia. If they make any bad faith edits (blatant promotional edits, willful misunderstanding of guidelines, and so on) then that can be addressed. The article could be written somewhat more neutrally but it's not bad - it comes across more as someone who was trying but isn't used to Wikipedia's writing style.
I'm honestly kind of getting student editor vibes for the most part. My personal theory is that it's either a situation where they were writing about a professor they really like or they're part of a class where the assignment is editing Wikipedia. The assignment one is actually pretty common, if you were wondering about that - we have a LOT of professors who do this. There's no organization on here set up specifically for the UK like
- Interesting, thank you very much for the clarification! Superboilles (talk) 20:46, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
Translation
On a side note, I'll keep you in mind for any French specific articles that need work! I sometimes come across article topics where the coverage is predominantly in other languages, so I'll definitely try to remember to reach out. My focus is usually film and literature related, especially horror, fantasy, and sci-fi genres. I try to help in whatever areas I feel comfortable enough in, though. On a somewhat related note, I'm trying to clean up the article on
- Sure thing! I have been editing very irregularly so far (spare time is a rare and precious thing), but I'll be happy to help if I can. Superboilles (talk) 20:53, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

November Articles for creation backlog drive
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/21/AFC-Logo.svg/75px-AFC-Logo.svg.png)
Hello Superboilles:
WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 2 months outstanding reviews from the current 4+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 November 2023 through 30 November 2023.
You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.
Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
Thanks for the Spanish translations
I’ve been creating articles for some Basque peace groups, etc. and came across the Txapote slogan article you created. I think translating articles from other Wikipedias is one of the more useful things people can do here so thanks. Prezbo (talk) 17:02, 24 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hey thanks a lot! It was (still is) an interesting story, glad I came across it. If you have anything else you want to flag for translation into English or French, let me know. Superboilles (talk) 10:26, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- I have been trying to translate some of the articles about victims of the Peruvian internal conflict, stored in https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categor%C3%ADa:V%C3%ADctimas_de_Sendero_Luminoso and https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Categor%C3%ADa:Conflicto_armado_interno_de_Per%C3%BA. I think it's useful just to have stubs with links to the Spanish articles. In general I think Wikipedia's coverage of political violence could stand to be more victim-centered. Anyway that's something you could work on if it grabs you, but of course it's entirely up to you. Prezbo (talk) 14:01, 1 December 2023 (UTC)
- Ok will look into it. I have a couple other themes I want to get to first but I'll keep your message here for reference. Superboilles (talk) 09:42, 3 December 2023 (UTC)

Hi Superboilles. Thank you for your work on Charter of Paris against Cancer. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:
Thank you for the clear and helpful translation from French; no concerns from me. I would have stuck with your original page titie, but it seems that another editor thinks differently.

Decline in Massimo Filippini Draft
Dear Superboilles, Thank you for your comments on the draft of Draft:Massimo_Filippini. Your comments state that there are not enough external sources, however, I do feel like there are a lot. Indeed, there are sources from the national Swiss radio (in French, German, and Italian), associations, and initiatives citing his great work as an economist. I would like to seek your help on this matter. Thank you in advance. Best, Lea Leaschlatter (talk) 12:31, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
