Rewards task

Here are some I found at a quick glance, some might have repeated content but they are good to prove notability by showing wide coverage[1] [2] [3] And a biography piece: https://thuraimugam.com/ .- Kevo327 (talk) 18:26, 1 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sources from Reidgreg

There are a lot of little (but high quality) sources to say that he was a BJP candidate for that riding in that election but not a lot of detail. Some of the bigger pieces on him are about his activism and rallies.

If you think I deserve it, I'd appreciate {{The BLP Barnstar}} posted to my talk page. – Reidgreg (talk) 15:19, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

About the Draft

Hello, SVcode! I have read your draft article and here are my opinions on it:

Images

My recommendation for you is to add one or more images to the article. A Wikipedia page should always have as much information as possible (but not too much).

References

It's quite good that you have references on the page. But, one thing bothers me: Could you add some referenes that are not from news sites, for example? That would make the article more "stable" and reliable.

Length of the article

The page itself is kind of... short. I have two solutions in mind: You could mark it as a stub, or gather more info about the subject and make the article larger.

Conclusion

I think that the article is not ready for the publishing yet. This is a very good start, I'd say, but it needs some more polish and expansion. Anyways, keep it going - as I said earlier, the draft is an excellent starting point. Best regards, Dimljacic (talk) 22:00, 25 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much! It was a pleasure to work with you :) Dimljacic (talk) 09:06, 27 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Draft

Hello. I read the draft, and I think you should do 2 things to make it better.

1. Add media, stuff like pictures and videos, stuff like that 2. Add some more text to the article, flesh it out, or just categorize it as a stub, easy as that.

I submitted it for review, so if they reject it, tell them you will add this stuff after it's published. I will try to provide you with anything you can't find. Right now, all you should try to add is a picture of the person and #1 should be fulfilled for now. We can work on #2 together after it's approved. Let me know about what you are going to do about this, and I'll get back to you. Good luck! BubbaDaAmogus (talk) 18:07, 3 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Guild of Copy Editors December 2022 Newsletter error

The GOCE December 2022 newsletter, as sent on 9 December, contains an erroneous start date for our December Blitz. The Blitz will start on 11 December rather than on 17 December, as stated in the newsletter. I'm sorry for the mistake and for disrupting your talk page; thanks for your understanding. Sent by Baffle gab1978 via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:30, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey SVcode,

You added references to the page Ilyas Khoja that seem totally unrelated to the topic; unless I am mistaken they do nothing to support the statements of the page. Was this in error or is there something I'm missing? Iazyges Consermonor Opus meum 03:20, 27 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, Sorry there was an error in this. I should have watched more.
FYI: I couldn't reply on time because I was busy. SVcode(Talk) 21:41, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
