WikiProject Indonesia was featured in a WikiProject Report in the Signpost on 11 September 2013.

Hi, any Indonesian speakers would be able to locate any sources describing this village in Indonesian for Boho, North Sumatra? If not, might need to merge this article within another Indonesia related article and quote info from the source currently added. Much of the current info in the article, while interesting, is not reflected in the current source. Thanks Saussure4661 (talk) 16:34, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking as someone with a lot of affection for the Lake Toba area, does a village that small need a wikipedia article? Dan Carkner (talk) 16:45, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello WP Indonesia, I'm hoping someone familiar with Indonesia & its media landscape can help me identify whether or not either Central Kalimantan Today (located at https://kaltimtoday.co/) or The Voice of Indonesia (located at https://voi.id/en) are WP:RELIABLESOURCES; the "Entertainment" sections in specific.

I checked at Wikipedia:WikiProject Indonesia/Resources but didn't see much as far as a comprehensive list of Indonesian sources that are known to be reliable similar to the one for Korea.

Thanks! RachelTensions (talk) 21:36, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@RachelTensions: As an Indonesian, I had not heard of Kaltim Today before. It seems to be a local or regional news outlet that primarily covers topics related to East Kalimantan (with 'Kaltim' being short for Kalimantan Timur, and 'Timur' meaning 'East' in Indonesian). Their reporters are listed as members of the Indonesian Journalists Association, and their website mentions a fact-checking process and editorial oversight, which suggests they might meet the criteria for a credible news organization under WP:NEWSORG. However, I would advise using sources with broader, national coverage instead.

In contrast, Voi.id is a nationally recognized news outlet with a more established reputation and a larger team of reporters. I believe it qualifies as a reliable source per WP:NEWSORG. Ckfasdf (talk) 22:12, 28 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It has come to my attention there is a wikipage that contains seemingly fabricated if not fictitious data, and I think we should do something about it.

The page: Rantastia Nur Alangan

it's similar to Rangga Sasana but the wording on that page seems like it's presenting itself as 'factual' and I think this is dangerous to the credibility of idwiki.

″former military attaché of the Royal Prussian Order in Indonesia based in Russia. Rantastia was also promoted to General Oberst.″

I don't think it's appropriate for a wikipedia page. Feels a lot like a "schizo posting" for a lack of a better term than an actual article. - EvoSwatch (talk) 14:34, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is english wikipedia - and as such we have no capacity to deal with the id wiki -

you should take your concern to members of https://id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Pengurus JarrahTree 14:50, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Will do, thanks. - EvoSwatch (talk) 15:07, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The id:Tabrakan kereta api di Talerddig 2024 article needs correction. "Jalur kereta api antara Machynlleth dan Aberystwyth, serta Dovey Junction dan Pwllheli ditutup akibat kecelakaan ini" needs to be replaced with "Jalur kereta api antara Machynlleth dan Shrewsbury ditutup akibat kecelakaan ini". I've tried doing this myself, but am getting a warning and am unable to save the edit. I don't speak Indonesian and have no idea what the warning is about.

The Peruri 88 article discusses a purported skyscraper development in Jakarta (a very large and expensive project). It was (apparently - no source) to be finished by 2020. Does anyone have any references to support claims that construction was even started? If so, what is the state of the project now? I can't find anything beyond design stuff when searching online. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 18:32, 27 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Finlay McWalter: As of October 2024, I couldn't find any recent updates on this skyscraper development. All sources found date back to 2012, leading me to believe the project may have been abandoned. This could potentially warrant an AfD. Ckfasdf (talk) 08:12, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. This was my suspicion too. Is there any RS that we can show about what the state of the site is now? -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 09:12, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is very recent (July 2024) photography on Google StreetView of the area, which certainly doesn't have a skyscraper and doesn't appear to show a cleared area or a large construction site. The article has coords, but not a street address, so I can't definitely see which block(s) would be levelled for this. Can someone else take a look, please. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 09:17, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The creator of the article is still editing, maybe needs to be asked what happened? JarrahTree 09:20, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that Ckfasdf has nominated the article at AfD, and has informed user:M R Karim Reza, the creator. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 13:35, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes.. I have nominated the article for AfD. Please feel free to add your comments to the AfD discussion. Ckfasdf (talk) 13:43, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sad to report that JarrahTree has passed away. See his obituary on the deceased Wikipedians page. Condolences should go on his talk page. Graham87 (talk) 12:37, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:1257 Samalas eruption has a bunch of sources that might be worth including in that featured article, but only if someone can translate them. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk) 11:27, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article Muhammad Subuh Foundation has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced and unimproved almost 15 years. Run of the mill, very small, private foundation. Not enough information to merge, and a redirect would be redundant. Borderline religious Spam.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
