Autopatrolled

User:Petewarrior

I have created 26 articles so far, and it would be great to have the next ones appearing on search engines more quickly. PetéWarrior (talk) 11:18, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not a regular here, but is that the purpose of autopatrolled? --Deepfriedokra (talk) 12:37, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Deepfriedokra: More of a side-effect: new pages are marked as {{NOINDEX}}, telling search engine crawlers to ignore them, until they're patrolled or for 90 days (whichever is first). – Joe (talk) 12:49, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Do we have any admins who can read Japanese? All the articles appear to be translations and it would be good if somebody could cast their eye over sources. Meanwhile, PetéWarrior, could you please add sources for dates of birth to the bios of living people to comply with Wikipedia:DOB? Schwede66 02:35, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:BastianMAT

Greetings, it’s been a few months since I last applied for the permissions. I have created many political articles since then and taken on the feedback from before. I have not faced any issues and received several thank you messages from users with some of my articles making it to ITNR. Considering this, I do feel like its the right time to submit this now. Wish you all a good day. BastianMAT (talk) 21:28, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Me again. Last time, we talked about Wikipedia:DOB where it says "Wikipedia includes ... dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources". The date and place of birth for Tiémoko Meyliet Koné is referenced to Latest celebarticles. Does that website constitute a reliable source to you? Schwede66 03:07, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Schwede66:, the birth date was right but the source should have been better, pretty hard to find it but eventually found his birth date on the Ivory Coast government website (so went to update that). [3] As you did find that, you must have looked through my other articles too like Dragomir Zakov and all election articles created, is it fine? They have all been approved and as I mentioned some of them have even made it to ITNR. BastianMAT (talk) 07:48, 13 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done I've waited a few days to see whether new bios would turn up and yep, there are three of them. Diannaa, I had a look at Miguel Romero Sotelo and its sources are mostly in Spanish. Turning on Google Translate, it looks like close paraphrasing is a problem. Is there a tool that utilises Google Translate? Earwig does not seem to do it. Either way, this request will have to be declined as Earwig found this one, so the question is just for my own benefit. You may wish to have a closer look at this user's contributions and see what else there is. Can I leave it to you to deal this problem article? I suspect by the time that you've looked at Google Translate, it might be ready for nuking. Schwede66 06:57, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you could specify which sources were too closely paraphrased/copied from Google Translate, I would be happy to have a look. — Diannaa (talk) 14:50, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, Diannaa. The source I looked at is reference #2 (#3 and #5 is a duplicate): Management by Lima Municipality:

  • WP: Romero was born and grew up in Breña
  • GT: He was born and grew up in Breña
  • WP: He has a master's degree in Territorial Planning and Environmental Management from the University of Barcelona and a master's degree in Higher Education from the San Ignacio de Loyola University.
  • GT: He is ... Master in Territorial Planning and Environmental Management from the University of Barcelona. He has a Master's degree in Higher Education from the San Ignacio de Loyola University
  • WP: He later served as Deputy Minister of Housing and Urbanism ... during the governments of Alejandro Toledo and Ollanta Humala.
  • GT: He has served as Deputy Minister of Housing and Construction, and Deputy Minister of Housing and Urbanism, during the governments of Alejandro Toledo and Ollanta Humala.

Thanks for your help. Schwede66 22:18, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Job titles, names of university degrees, names of schools are skewing your assessment. I can't remove any of that content.— Diannaa (talk) 22:24, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's still close paraphrasing with little attempt to reword, isn't it, Diannaa? One could instead say:
  • Romero was born in Breña and he was raised in that town.
  • Under presidents Toledo and Humala, he was deputy minister of housing and urbanism.
And that still leaves what Earwig has found. Schwede66 22:43, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I have cleaned what Earwig found. I am not going to change "born and grew up" that's not necessary.— Diannaa (talk) 22:52, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Schwede66 02:57, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Florificapis

I've made about 50 articles, mostly related to the history of religion, none of which needed much cleanup. My particular areas of interest: ancient texts, philosophy, monasteries, monks. I sometimes translate from Wikipedias in other languages and always give attribution when doing so. Florificapis (talk) 14:32, 14 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Delqa

I've had the Autopatrolled right from January 31st, to May 1st, and I'm still regularly writing articles and would like to reduce the workload of the new pages patrol. Delqa (talk) 21:33, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Schwede66: You wanted to look over Delqa's recent creations. – Joe (talk) 15:42, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, Joe. Delqa, last time we communicated, I suggested: "You do not define the DEFAULTSORT parameter when you write bios – please have a look at WP:SORTKEY." You've written five bios since and DEFAULTSORT is missing in all cases. What's up with that? Schwede66 00:27, 24 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

User:Bruxton

I am requesting Autopatrolled rights. I have started close to 100 articles and I have improved many others. I try to aim for quality and I rarely start stubs. I have started 4 articles that are GAs and others which have been on the main page in DYK. Thank you for considering this request. Bruxton (talk) 17:27, 22 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Funnily enough, I had a look at some of your creations earlier today and thought they are all solid. "Should assign autopatrolled once I'm back at a computer" was my thought. And here's a request from you. Only feedback is to look out for not mixing date formats between body and infobox; see Jay Swayze how to format the date templates in an ibox.

User:162 etc.

Editor has created more than 200 valid pages. A lot of their work is on dab pages, but their AfD contributions indicate good knowledge about notability in general. (t · c) buidhe 17:16, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
