hello Tails. Are you able to create and publish a simple wiki page? Windrush3 (talk) 12:02, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi, Windrush3! Since I'm not really active on Simple English Wikipedia; I don't have an article there. I'm assuming that creating a page on Simple Wikipedia is basically the same as creating one here; so probably yes! ~ Tails Wx (🐾, me!) 14:00, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Ho

thanknyou for replying.

Can I send you my sandbox page? Or how to go forward?

actually that was a non technical use

if the word “simple”!!

I just have a simple

page I want to publish… Windrush3 (talk) 14:04, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Oh, alright! So, you moved your sandbox to a userpage, with the userpage belonging to a non-existent user. I've gone ahead and reverted it and marked the userpage for speedy deletion, just an FYI. Your sandbox isn't affected, however. Next, is the subject

significant coverage of them, and so far, it doesn't seem like the subject, Reverend Mark Farr, meets notability guidelines, unfortunately. I'll be happy to take a look for any sources that establish notability of Farr if you'd like, though! (Courtesy ping, @Windrush3!) :) ~ Tails Wx (🐾, me

So regarding the notability guidelines, being president of a fairly well known international organization working with dialogue between Russia and the US isn’t enough ? Or of the John Lewis organization

Not seeking to be picky, trying to understand Windrush3 (talk) 14:33, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

I put in some sources from Brookings, C-Span, global peace foundation, Eurasia Center, not sure if you saw them Windrush3 (talk) 14:34, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

It's alright! Understanding notability guidelines might be a bit difficult or frustrating at first; but you'll later know which sources establish notability or not.

So, the

general notability guideline states

:

A topic is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list when it has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject.

This applies to any biography of a person, though

WP:NBASIC

is a much clearer, specific notability guideline for people. It's basically the same thing.

For Farr, I'll do a source review below:

• The C-Span source just leads me to the homepage, and not a specific page. Is there a specific one?
• The Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training source doesn't even mention Farr, despite its reliability, so that's not a source to establish notability, unfortunately.
• The American Academy of Diplomacy source – same thing with the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training source.
• The US-Russia relations source – again, same thing with the above two sources.
• The Brookings source – we're getting there, but just a profile with two sentences? Not much to establish notability of Farr.
• The Eurasia Center source – reliable, has significant coverage – but not a secondary source, unfortunately.
• The Global Peace Foundation source – same thing with the Eurasia Center source: reliable, significant coverage attained, but not a secondary source!

So, Farr needs work in establishing notability of him. Let me know if you need help in finding sources, or if you need any example sources that are reliable, secondary, and have significant coverage of a person! There could be more outside of the noted sources above; though I'll need to take a more thorough, in-depth search for sources.

Thank you for helping me understand

let me see if there are sources like that out there. I will check and get back to you

thanks Windrush3 (talk) 15:00, 23 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi there, Tails Wx, and welcome to Women in Red. It's good to see you now intend to devote some of your editing time to writing about women. If you can develop biographies with the same level of detail as in your articles about weather disasters, you'll certainly be a useful member of the project. In this connection, you might find some useful tips in our Primer. Please let me know if you run into any problems or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 09:50, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Hey there, @Ipigott! Yes, I'm working to start articles for women in sports, and if ya haven't noticed, I've began working on Draft:Sara Scalia, an American college basketball player for Indiana Hoosiers women's basketball, and likely starting work shortly on Lexus Bargesser, another women's basketball player for the same team. Thanks for the warm welcome! I'll push my efforts for high-quality articles about women's basketball players, similar to my articles about severe weather events! :) ~ Tails Wx (🐾, me!) 14:10, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I noticed you'd made a one-line start on Sara Scalia. That's no doubt what prompted you to join WiR. I've also been reassessing your articles, upgrading quite a few to the B class they deserve. Good to hear we can expect high quality coverage of women basketball players. I look forward to seeing them on mainspace.--Ipigott (talk) 14:34, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for reassessing! I also, did make my 25,000th edit on Dictionary of Women Worldwide, which is also something to note as well as part of Wikiproject Women in Red. :) ~ Tails Wx (🐾, me!) 14:42, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

On 25 March 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Alfred de Laage de Meux, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Alfred de Laage de Meux received the rank of brevet without completing aviation school? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Alfred de Laage de Meux. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Alfred de Laage de Meux), 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.

Just letting you know that I'll be on holiday with very little internet from tomorrow until the 3rd of April, so if there's any issues to address with the Tapir! GA nomination I may not be able to reply for up to a week. Thanks! Suntooooth, it/he (talk/contribs) 11:45, 25 March 2024 (UTC)

No worries, @Suntooooth! After I'm finished with my review, I'll give ya plenty of time to complete any fixes and to address any comments. :) ~ Tails Wx (🐾, me!) 14:39, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
