Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Earth Day, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Jack Johnson and John McConnell. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

AIV reports

edit

Note that I've removed your reports to WP:AIV as you are reporting all of the IPs that have recently edited the article whether they are active or not. The reports are inappropriate and are bogging down the remaining reports that need actioning. If you think Ryan Kavanaugh requires semi-protection, the place to make the request is WP:RFPP.-- Jezebel's Ponyobons mots 21:26, 5 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Draft:Laura Padilla-Walker

edit

Hi, I noticed you moved Draft:Laura Padilla-Walker to draftspace. Could I inquire why a draftify was necessary for a regular stub article for a professor? I reviewed her through AfC and her Google Scholar h-index was in line with Wikipedia:Notability (academics) and there is community consensus that WP:PROF is enough to establish notability for academics. Thank you in advance for your answer! nearlyevil665 19:46, 16 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

nearlyevil665, I believe the only source used is not good enough to meet WP:RS. The WP:PROF you are referring to has a lot to day about academic notability. However, feel free to move it back to mainspace if you feel it's ok. But I recommend adding a few more sources. Also have it reviewed at NPR otherwise, other editors may take it to AFD or back to draft. Cheers.Yaxı Hökmdarz (talk) 05:24, 17 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
Google Scholar is a perfectly reliable source and is sufficient to establish notability for academics with an h-index pass (unless you're suggesting that she is not notable with over 200 citations in 10 peer-reviewed journals). Also, draftifying a stub article moments after it was accepted through AfC is poor practice (more appropriate would be applying tags or fixing the problem yourself) and would generally be reserved for outright borderline cases of it being a UPE or being blatantly unreferenced. May I suggest New Page Patrol School if you're planning on reviewing new pages? It's harder and more complex than one might think to catch all the nuances of various SNGs and even experienced editors prefer to review articles for a specific thematic area. Thank you and take care. nearlyevil665 05:48, 17 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
