Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Roulette (Katy Perry so) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

ivote
- wanted to remind you that you have a right to ivote in the AfDs. So far I only see comments from you. Lightburst (talk) 18:06, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Lightburst Thanks for the reminder. Yes, I often vote at AfD, but only when I'm confident an article should be kept or deleted. For the cemeteries, I'm hesitant to vote 'yes' when there's limited accessible coverage and some other editors feel so strongly in voting 'no'. Sometimes I just accept that the community may not prefer to have a Wikipedia entry about a certain topic at this time, even when the topic may indeed be notable. In other words, I pick my battles, and since right now I'm a bit frustrated by the noms, I'm working on other things. ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:37, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Dot com episode 1

Chicken and Guns and leave
I was about to put an inline comment on this, but maybe it's better handled this way. You wrote the Chicken and Guns owner was "placed on leave". It left me wondering who has the authority to place an owner on leave? Did he place himself on leave? ☆ Bri (talk) 19:08, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Bri: You know, I was wondering the same thing! I specifically came across this phrase in the source, which is why I used, but I think I need to review the sources in more detail. Perhaps the restaurant group has some authority? ---Another Believer (Talk) 19:14, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Anonymous Apes monolith
Two notes in one day! If you haven't seen it yet: Activists Dressed as Apes Erect Monolith in Front of DEA Headquarters. Public art? Protest? Wiki-notable? New category for monoliths? (Utah monolith included)? ☆ Bri (talk) 00:00, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Bri Not sure this is independently notable. I'm not seeing enough about Anonymous Apes either to justify a new stub for the group. I almost wonder if there should be an entry for Cannabis protests or Cannabis demonstrations, since we have articles like Global Marijuana March, too. ---Another Believer (Talk) 00:08, 21 October 2021 (UTC)
- There's an existing category and a template {{Cannabis events}} with an unlinked title, so a full article seems appropriate and would cover the historical opposition to a long and disputed prohibition. Randy Kryn (talk) 16:08, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
Page for DHS General Counsel Jonathan Meyer
Extended content
|

Do you think it would be appropriate for you to create the article for Jonathan Meyer. POTUS Biden nominated him to serve as general counsel of DHS, essentially the number 3 position there. It has been highlighted in numerous articles. The nomination was recently confirmed the US Senate as shown here. Is this an appointment for which its own page should be created, particularly given the heightened publicity around the legality of DHS actions? 2601:14D:8A00:7390:ED5A:43FD:97B3:3271 (talk) 19:31, 21 October 2021 (UTC)

Seedfeeder GAN?
Extended content
|
---|
Hi Another Believer, I'm reviewing this article at GAN and have made a few comments that probably deserve some kind of attention, even if only "we thought of that and it's not specially relevant, because...". Nom has made a few quick edits as suggested but it's their first GAN, and they haven't commented on the GAN page. I see from the AfD (simultaneous GAN and AfD, is that a 69 or something) that you see yourself as a contributor to the article, and wonder if you wouldn't mind taking a look at the GAN comments? I don't think much effort would be needed to get this to GA. Anyway, just an idea. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 10:25, 23 October 2021 (UTC)

You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Statue of Minerva, Guadalajara), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page.

Idaho Statues...
Hey, I am trying to populate things like Category:Sculptures in Idaho, Category:Outdoor_sculptures_in_Idaho and Category:Public art in Idaho and could use whatever help you can offer. I started a todo list at: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Idaho/Culture. Appreciate any help. - Mjquinn_id (talk) 01:41, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Mjquinn id I'll try to revisit this once I'm back home from my travels. I'm especially interested in statues and monuments at the Idaho State Capitol (I assume some are installed on the grounds). A very quick search did not turn up helpful sources with details about Capitol artworks, but once I have more time I'll do a bit more research. Good luck with this effort! ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:27, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
2022 N.America convention
Extended content

Hello, and I hope your travels are going well. Was interested in recommending that the 2022 North American convention be held in Las Vegas (Viva WikiVegas), both as a celebration of hopefully post-serious covid revelry and to put the convention back in the western part of the continent. I'd assume one of the main strip hotels (as I said in a note to Kevin, leave downtown to Britannica) would welcome the Wikipedia and Wikimedia crew with deep discounts on both a large block of guest rooms and conference halls. MGM owns many of the strip hotels and may bundle w. in with lots of extras. I don't know who organizes the choice of city, but know that you,, Bluerasberry, and a few others are active, so wanted to post you for thoughts and guidance.

Thank you
Hello again. I hope you are doing well. Apologies in advance if I have already posted this in the past, but I really want to thank you for all your help with the Holly & Ivy article. You were so warm and kind to me when I first joined Wikipedia, and I genuinely believe that played a large part in me continuing to be an editor for this long. I was very fortunate that you were one of the first editors that I really interacted with on this site. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I have decided to really retire from Wikipedia (after I complete a current GAN review) to focus my time and energy elsewhere. Apologies for getting super sappy, but my decision to retire made me feel sentimental and go back to the first article I edited on here. Maybe one day, I will go back and do a FAC for that as it would be a nice full circle moment. Either way, I just wanted to say thank you for everything! Aoba47 (talk) 05:36, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Aoba47 Awww, thanks so much for the kind note. I appreciate your thoughtfulness. While I'm bummed to learn you're retiring, I appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia and hope you might come around now and then. Please take care, ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:26, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

Before you ask!, I already have plans to take photographs of the bar's exterior (and hopefully interior) and I've been unable to confirm the year in which the establishment opened.

A somewhat premature New Year's greeting
John Vanderlyn, Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos (c.1812), Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts |
Best wishes for a safe, healthy and prosperous 2022. | |
Thank you for your contributions toward making Wikipedia a better and more accurate place. BoringHistoryGuy (talk) 20:17, 26 December 2021 (UTC) Moral lesson: John Vanderlyn was an American painter who studied in Paris, and his life-sized Ariadne Asleep on the Island of Naxos was one of the first large nudes exhibited in the United States. Peddling the poison as well as the cure, this overtly sensuous work was presented to the public as a moral lesson on the consequences of lascivious behavior. Visible in the distance is the ship of Princess Ariadne's secret lover, Theseus, for whom she has betrayed her people by helping him to escape the Labyrinth and slay the Minotaur. Ariadne's bliss will come to an end when she awakens from her post-coital reverie, only to discover that the faithless Theseus has sailed away without her. |

Hi! Courtesy heads up that I've unfortunately sent this to AfD. I have some ties to the city and wanted to improve it, but I have been unable to find anything to meet WP:ORG. Didn't PROD as I thought it required discussion and have the utmost respect for your creations, so maybe someone will find sources. Star Mississippi 23:46, 27 December 2021 (UTC)

Hey there! Saw in your user page that you've also made a couple of discography list articles to featured, and I recently opened Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Ben&Ben discography/archive1. It's relatively recent so it's pretty much attracted just one user, so I thought you might be interested in reviewing (it's pretty short in terms of prose), but no pressure if you're busy ^ ^ GeraldWL 14:29, 30 December 2021 (UTC)

Photo requests
Hello. I'm planning a few walks for the next few weeks to collect some photographs for pages in the Cambridge MA area. I noticed your photo request template at Talk:1881 Gate, and was wondering if you can think of any pages that you (or others) have written regarding architectural features in that area which don't have photos yet. I found a few through User:Mx._Granger/Photo_program but I know I haven't found anywhere near all of them. Thanks! - Astrophobe (talk) 20:01, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Astrophobe Wow, great question! There may be some entries to consider at Category:Wikipedia requested photographs in Middlesex County, Massachusetts. Meyer Gate comes to mind. Can't think of any others off the top of my head, but thanks for asking! Enjoy your walking tours, ---Another Believer (Talk) 20:23, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- Oh great idea, thank you! It would be a shame if I got the 1881 gate but missed the Meyer gate. If you happen to run across any others, please let me know :) - Astrophobe (talk) 21:38, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
- It took a little longer than I'd have liked (it's ridiculous how early the sun sets here and I kept failing to get out of the house in time to take daylight photos), but 1881 Gate is now illustrated. :) - Astrophobe (talk) 00:12, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Astrophobe Thank you! I've removed the 'photo needed' tag on the article's talk page. Happy editing! ---Another Believer (Talk) 01:26, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- Oh great point, I forgot to do that. Thanks! - Astrophobe (talk) 01:32, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

DragRaceProgressTable/14
Extended content

Hello I want to point out that some registered users in particular Slay-12345678910 and Lorenzo 1109 who are repeatedly removing the DragRaceProgressTable/14 template on the page RuPaul's Drag Race (season 14), as usual, by inserting tables that do not respect the neutrality of the platform quoting the "Can yall give credit to the queens work .... like only showing who won the btm and elim can completely make someones track seem better or worse. like crystal methyds track looks way worse than it actually is. This is why people don't use wiki for track records anymore", which I find IMO nosense since we report the data that are actually announced during the episode (WIN - BTM - ELIM). Of course, I've already helped re-adjust the table to standards, but ut there is an urgent need for blocking changes for both users and anonymous IP addresses that persist in modifying the deletion table. --- « Ðømīnīk • Cåpuån » 16:48, 24 January 2022 (CET)
