User script to detect unreliable sources[edit]
I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Wikipedia. The idea is that it takes something like
- John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (
John Smith "[https://www.deprecated.com/article Article of things]" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.
)
and turns it into something like
- John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14.
It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.
The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.
Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Discussion at Wikipedia:Content assessment[edit]
You are invited to join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Content assessment#Proposal: Reclassification of Current & Future-Classes as time parameter, which is within the scope of this WikiProject. This WikiProject received this message because it currently uses "Current" and/or "Future" class(es). There is a proposal to split these two article "classes" into a new parameter "time", in order to standardise article-rating across Wikipedia (per RfC), while also allowing simultaneous usage of quality criteria and time for interest projects. Thanks! —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 21:21, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
FAR for Monte Ne[edit]
I have nominated Monte Ne for a featured article review here. Please join the discussion on whether this article meets the featured article criteria. Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status. The instructions for the review process are here. Hog Farm Talk 04:10, 17 December 2023 (UTC)

I just put this article up. If any natives and/or Arkansas history buffs want to make improvements, go to it. I didn't go into great detail on the internal Republican party struggles he was involved in. Brianyoumans (talk) 23:57, 7 March 2024 (UTC)
- By the way, it seems like after Harmon Remmel's death the Remmel family continued to control the Arkansas Republican party, right up to the early 1960s. There doesn't seem to be much written about this, however. There's a little on Pratt Remmel, mayor of Little Rock in the early 1950s, but otherwise nothing. It might be a good thesis project for somebody. Brianyoumans (talk) 23:22, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
Is this subject notable or should I merge it to the school that hosts it? Seems significant to me. FloridaArmy (talk) 15:21, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
