The article Glee: The Music, The Christmas Album you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Glee: The Music, The Christmas Album for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility. eviolite (talk) 15:45, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Annual report

Whenever you can, do the rest of the write-ups you can claimed (you can also remove yours from George VI if you want, it's only there because he wound up split from his daughter). igordebraga 18:23, 31 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Good" news: you can recycle most of what you wrote for this week's #1 on the annual report! (thought of copy-pasting myself, but who knows if you want to change something?) igordebraga 03:33, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Igordebraga: Go for it (though change the "4 days" to two) - I'd probably also make a note about it being such a late entry, most of those views came in what was 2022 in parts of the world! And how much of an impact White's death clearly had to rack up so many in mere hours. Kingsif (talk) 03:37, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

What is going on in the Betty White Section ?

I must apologize in advance for even bringing up the topic of her image change in the first place because it seems as if I made a mountain out of a molehill. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:204:CF80:7440:296E:659D:DBD3:740B (talk) 16:44, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't checked it in a little while, but I really don't know. Last I saw, the underlying issue seemed to be one guy thinking that without his vote of confidence then an image can't be used... I don't know. But no, someone else would have suggested an image change (or just done it) soon enough without you, and it is standard if you look across RDs of old people with significant careers. It's not your fault. Kingsif (talk) 21:53, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Betty White on Top 25

I looked at the Betty White section of the Top 25 Report and wanted to mention that Betty White was a staple on TV game shows for decades, from the 1950s to the 1970s back when TV game shows were a big deal. She was a hilarious contestant and even met the love of her life and third husband, Allen Ludden, when she was on his game show. Password. He proposed several times before she said, "Yes!" It might be hard to work this in with all of her other accomplishments but she was a regular feature on TV for decades before her primetime hits. Liz Read! Talk! 05:41, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: Maybe we can paragraph it up; the Ludden notes can go in his entry further down the list! Kingsif (talk) 05:44, 4 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your GA nomination of Dinosaur Game

The article Dinosaur Game you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Dinosaur Game for issues which need to be addressed. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of The Most Comfortable Chair -- The Most Comfortable Chair (talk) 14:01, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

GA review mentor

Hey, I was wondering if you could be my GA mentor for a GA review as it would be my first time reviewing one. I familiarized myself with the GA criteria and read the instructions on how to review one. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 19:12, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @Kaleeb18:, what article are you thinking of reviewing and what mentoring would you want? (Some people want some tips before going in, others like a bit more guidance through the review, I'd be happy to help in any case!) And welcome to GANR, wonderful to have more willing reviewers! Kingsif (talk) 22:15, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well I think Im going to review Us Again (film) because it is pretty short and I know stuff about Disney. I would like some tips as well as some guidance through the review process. I think I will need help mostly with stuff related to WP:MOS. Thanks for helping! ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 00:20, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. I've already taken it and Pamzeis is the nominator. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 00:27, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Awesome! I'm sure you can work through the criteria, you know how to ping me for anything, and I'll probably check in to see if I think any of your comments stray/could go deeper :) Excited to do this Kingsif (talk) 00:30, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Cool! ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 00:35, 12 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey does this review for the lead look bad?/What would you change?

  • Conceived after Parrish noticed he was growing older, Us Again takes inspiration from his grandparents. – This sentence could be restructured because it kinda comes out of nowhere and seems like it is still talking about the plot at first.
  • Its score was composed by Pinar Toprak and was written before storyboarding and animation, in contrast to the usual filmmaking process. – This sentence needs to make it clear that the music was written before the storyboarding and animation process began, because it was very confusing at first and I had to reread it several times to realize what the sentence was trying to say

Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 03:46, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Kaleeb18: Hmm, I don't think only two wikilinks next to each other, especially when it's unavoidable really, is SEAOFBLUE. Another note is that, it really depends on the nominator if I would outright suggest sentence replacements, especially without explanation, and not just encourage them along the right lines. If you're not familiar with the nominator, I would probably suggest not doing that (it's more like you're imposing your version rather than reviewing theirs), and instead just explain the issue, and if possible, why - so they can rewrite it their own way that addresses your issue. (On that matter, your suggested replacement for the "Conceived" sentence isn't totally grammatically sound, so be careful if you do make suggestions!) Kingsif (talk) 04:04, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the tip. How does the above look now? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 12:39, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good, maybe something between the two, so what needs working on is narrower - like saying the first sentence could be restructured and the second needs to make it clear it was the music that was written first. P.S. I also think the things you are picking up on are good points, you seem to have read the criteria and looked through past GA reviews and I am impressed :) I also think everyone should find their own reviewing style and structure, so if you think I am kinda suppressing that, do tell me. Kingsif (talk) 18:20, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, I find your tips to be really helpful. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 18:30, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hey isn't there supposed to be a citation after a quote like is that a WP: policy. Im looking at the quote in development section of the article where Parrish says "It made me realize that if I spent all my time focused on what I thought I was missing, then I was going to miss the beauty in the present". or is it fine to put the citation later like they did? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 03:28, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Kaleeb18: I don't think that technically every quotation needs its ref right after it - just that everything needs to be sourced. It is assumed that the next ref after the quotation is the source that supports it. However, it is encouraged to have refs immediately next to quotations, especially if the ref would otherwise be several sentences later/there are multiple refs in the paragraph that may be confusing. In the section here, it looks like another quotation in the next sentence is sourced by the same ref, and whoever wrote it wanted to be economical with how many times they used it (a separate issue is that, quotations notwithstanding, it is considered poor style to needlessly duplicate refs across a paragraph). So, long story short, I would ask to have a ref added at the end of the quotation: even if the ref isn't far away, it's a GA nom, so it can't hurt. Kingsif (talk) 03:34, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Gotcha thanks. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 12:43, 14 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hey, I think I'm done with my review so if you want to go over it to make sure I didn't miss anything please do. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 13:53, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Kaleeb18: I've added a few comments that are more my input on discussion. I like what you've got, but I don't think you've addressed the coverage criteria? Is the article broad enough that it covers all the main points, not so broad that it talks about too-tangential things, and are all relevant points covered in appropriate depth (based on the importance and detail given in sources). Kingsif (talk) 21:46, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I mean I thought so. What are you seeing that I am not? Do you mean like some areas need to be expanded? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 22:37, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Kaleeb18: I'm not saying there's an issue, just that you should note in your review that you've checked even if there aren't any. The review is a full review - a teacher still ticks correct answers - as well as a kind of accountability record for the article's future. So, if the article is appropriate in its broadness and depth, you have to write that you've checked. (Imagine reviewing an article with zero issues, it wouldn't look like a review if you just passed it without even saying there was nothing wrong!) Kingsif (talk) 22:47, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I mean I think the critical reception could be expanded. So do you basically just want me to check over if anything could be added to the article like look at the refs they have and say what could be added? I'm trying to figure out how to what I'm supposed to do. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 23:19, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, if you've done a source review, does the article reflect the sources. Like, if a source says 5 things about A and 2 things about B, does the article have sort of the same ratio? But, more, do sources in general all talk about A and B, so they're not small details that have been added, with bigger things about the subject excluded - this requires a bit of searching of your own if you're unfamiliar with the subject of the article. So, to use your example, if there isn't a lot of critical reception, it doesn't need a big critical reception section. But then, does the section mention the major views that critics have so it is representative of what sources say on the subject; and, make sure the article content isn't cherry-picking (which would make it not-neutral, too). Kingsif (talk) 23:23, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh gotcha. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 23:51, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok so Ive looked through the ref and here is what Ive I have found. In the first three refs it says "Working with Keone and Mari was the key to making this film work..." and more I think that can be used. In the Indie Wire ref the paragraph that starts "In terms of the color palette, Disney contrasted" that paragraph can be used. And there are plenty of stuff from the CBR ref that can be added to the article. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 02:59, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Kaleeb18: So it would fail broadness if not including things that are significantly discussed in sources, you can add that to the review. Kingsif (talk) 03:02, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Okay so, Pamzeis has done everything in the GA review and it all looks good to me and I think I’m ready to pass it. Is there anything you see that is still doesn’t meet the criteria? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 12:53, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Kaleeb18: It all looks good to me! Kingsif (talk) 20:21, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Great! Ill pass it soon. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 20:27, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Kaleeb18: Make sure you review finishing the review instructions so all the templates don't break! Kingsif (talk) 21:57, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I just started to as I got this message lol. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 22:00, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

DYK nomination of Nebraska v. One 1970 2-Door Sedan Rambler (Gremlin)

Hello! Your submission of Nebraska v. One 1970 2-Door Sedan Rambler (Gremlin) at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) at your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible.

@7&6=thirteen: Yeah, I kinda checked out when the legal heavy debating happened, but your initial explanation had made sense to me. Hope it's all sorted. Kingsif (talk) 21:28, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Nope. Fram is just a "no" and will not listen to reason IMO. But you take a look and decide what, if anything, there is to say. I'm out of things to say there. The jury is still out. 7&6=thirteen () 21:31, 17 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Holocaust jokes

YOU wrote: don't invent new sentence structures to shoehorn in links, either. I've amended it to more naturally incorporate a link to the article you made, but that Holocaust humor article needs serious clean-up so I'd be cautious linking it anywhere in its current state anyway

What do you mean "dont invent"? It is normal wikipedia process of editling. And I do want to "shoehorn" this wikilink everywhere it is relevant to attract attention to the article. Maybe someone will take some time and insytead of grumbling just impove it.

All three issues are a normal process of collaborative editing in wikipedia: nobody owns articles, but nobody chastises other's work idly: either you help or place tags. Loew Galitz (talk) 01:05, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Loew Galitz: What? I did improve it. My edit reason, which you quote, says I've amended it to more naturally incorporate. Did you skip that part to complain that I wasn't helping? Now, by "don't invent", I clearly mean don't invent new sentence structures, you know, exactly what I wrote that you also quoted. It's a friendly way of saying "your English grammar is abysmal, don't put malformed fragments into other sentences with no regard for context, because then none of it is comprehensible." Shoehorning is when a link or phrase is added in a way that is unnatural; as much as you may think it relevant, if it disrupts a sentence, it is inappropriate because it ruins readability for the purpose of advertising a link. Be more careful with your grammar and manner of editing things in. Nobody owns articles, but if I'm watching one and someone is being disruptive, I'm going to remove or clean it up - if you don't like that, Wikipedia editing isn't for you. I cleaned your mess up, by the way, since you're accusing me of being unhelpfully critical (the edit reason was explaining why I'd made the change!), and you come complaining to me because you apparently can't understand more than two words of the edit reason to see that. FYI: repeatedly adding shoehorned links is not collaborative editing. Cleaning that up to keep the new content in a way that doesn't harm the old content, and leaving an edit reason explaining why, is collaborative. Kingsif (talk) 01:15, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, let me dispel your belief that "either you help or place tags" when something is bad. Sorry, no, if edits are detrimental, especially when a cleaner version of them is not actually beneficial to an encyclopedia, they can be point blank undone, without clean-up or tags, to keep the article in a stable state. Kingsif (talk) 01:29, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I am sorry, miscommunication, because I did not ewxpress myself clearly. You did everything correctly in your article; no argument here. I was talkinn about my article Holocaust humor. As you may have noticed, my English is bad. But the subject of Holocaust humor is very notable (LOTS of references to complete books on the subject) and I am baffled nobody wrote about it in Wikipedia until this week. I wrote what I could, threw in plenty of "Further reading" and wikilinked from ewerywhere possible in hopes that someone with better writing skills will expand the article. Believe me, what I've read is enough to write more than The Holocaust article itself. I apologize that I decreased the quality of your article meanwhile. Thank you, Loew Galitz (talk) 04:42, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Loew Galitz: Yes, it is a hard subject to write about; the nuance to distinguish gallows humour from sadistic barbs is something many editors have probably worried about putting into an article of its own well. Holocaust jokes are otherwise covered, if tangentially, at related articles. I know you wrote it from scratch (I'd start with improving the structure), but be careful of WP:FORK as well. Kingsif (talk) 04:49, 15 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for an advice on improving the structure: I agree that even small sectioning according to joke subtypes/context. It will prevent meess during possible expansion. Also, can you point out the articles which have a threat of forking. Other than Jewish humor and Black comedy. Surprizingly they don't touch my subject at all, although "Black comedy" (improved) may be used as a cross-link for the essence of the Gallows humor. (By the way, "Black comedy" is a kind of a mess as well because not drawing clear explanations of the synonyms boldfaced in the lede (I noticed that the article is a result of a mechanical merge with "Gallows humor", which resulted in the confusion similar to that you are warning me about.)) Loew Galitz (talk) 00:18, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Well, I was thinking of all the articles about jokes about Hitler. But Polish joke also sees some crossover. Kingsif (talk) 00:23, 16 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

RfA

The recent changes made you less interested in running RfA? valereee (talk) 21:53, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Valereee: No, the way it looked like it was going before the recent changes - I haven't looked enough into the changes to see if I would now, but some of them seem really positive! Sorry if that wasn't clear, I'll make some edits because, yeah, not the thing you want to be writing in an RfA. Kingsif (talk) 21:55, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, nothing you wrote was bad! I just wanted to clarify with you as I know people have discussed you running. valereee (talk) 21:56, 27 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
