Also, I've seen some new users confuse the AfD acronym with the political party (I'm not joking). On Wikipedia, "AfD" refers to the article deletion process.

Question from Gweskada Tapshak Inuwa (23:51, 13 April 2025)

[edit]

Hello how do I upload traditional music? --Gweskada Tapshak Inuwa (talk) 23:51, 13 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

For one, make sure the recording(s) and composition(s) are free to use and not restricted by copyright; then upload the file to Wikimedia Commons. If you need to add a fair use sample, make sure it follows the non-free content guidelines. — 🌙Eclipse (she/they/all neos • talk • edits) 21:40, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Detention of Mahmoud Khalil

[edit]

On 14 April 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Detention of Mahmoud Khalil, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that the detention of Mahmoud Khalil raises constitutional questions similar to a 1945 court case? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Detention of Mahmoud Khalil. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Detention of Mahmoud Khalil), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Fractal FAQ

[edit]

Hey I saw you made a new FAQ on Fractal... did else something happen? I really did write with the presumption that his real name was common knowledge for how quickly I saw it on Google. I still feel awful that he thinks he was doxxed, that was never ever the point. How would Wikipedia feel if I just removed his name all together? I've never had to deal with something like this before but I want to know what you think. Very Respectfully, Johnson524 00:45, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Johnson524, no, nothing happened. I just wanted to explain the matter in case a bunch of angry readers come to the talk page. — 🌙Eclipse (she/they/all neos • talk • edits) 01:03, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for improving article quality in April! - My story is about music that Bach and Picander gave the world 300 years (and 19 days) ago, - listen (on the conductor's birthday) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:40, 20 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I finally managed to upload the pics I meant for Easter, see places. - Also finally, I managed a FAC, Easter Oratorio. I wanted that on the main page for Easter Sunday, but no, twice. You are invited to join a discussion about what "On this day" means, day or date. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:58, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2025 May newsletter

[edit]

The second round of the 2025 WikiCup ended on 28 April at 23:59 UTC. To reiterate what we said in the previous newsletter, we are no longer disqualifying contestants based on how many points (now known as round points) they received. Instead, the contestants with the highest round-point totals now receive tournament points at the end of each round. These tournament points are carried over between rounds, and can only be earned if a competitor is among the top 16 round-point scorers at the end of each round. This table shows all competitors who have received tournament points so far. Everyone who competed in round 2 will advance to round 3 unless they have withdrawn or been banned.

Round 2 was quite competitive. Four contestants scored more than 1,000 round points, and eight scored more than 500 points (including one who has withdrawn). The following competitors scored at least 800 points:

In addition, we would like to recognize Generalissima (submissions) for her efforts; she scored 801 round points but withdrew before the end of the round.

The full scores for round 2 can be seen here. During this round, contestants have claimed 13 featured articles, 20 featured lists, 4 featured-topic articles, 138 good articles, 7 good-topic articles, and more than 100 Did You Know articles. In addition, competitors have worked on 19 In the News articles, and they have conducted nearly 300 reviews.

Remember that any content promoted after 28 April but before the start of Round 3 can be claimed in Round 3. Invitations for collaborative writing efforts or any other discussion of potentially interesting work is always welcome on the WikiCup talk page. Remember, if two or more WikiCup competitors have done significant work on an article, all can claim points. If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, feel free to review one of the nominations listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove your name from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

New page reviewer granted

Hi LunaEclipse, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone! signed, Rosguill talk 18:29, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from RubberDuckiesRAwesome (03:07, 6 May 2025)

[edit]

Hi LunaEclipse! While browsing Wikipedia I found a biographical article I thought was largely written by the subject. It seems the account they use has also inserted themselves into other pages as well (ex. notable alumni), although all the edits made are regarding themselves. Is this something I should report or edit? --RubberDuckiesRAwesome (talk) 03:07, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

RubberDuckiesRAwesome, yes. The conflict of interest noticeboard is the right venue. If the editor hasn't been active in a while, it would be best to try rewriting the promotional parts of the article. — 🌙Eclipse (she/they/all neos • talk • edits) 08:36, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free image File:Rosa the sea otter.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Rosa the sea otter.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of non-free use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:13, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from SashaVuk (02:27, 12 May 2025)

[edit]

Dear Stella,

As I am often to do I looked up "Cow" on wikipedia, I like cows. I then clicked random article, read a little bit, and noticed that a number was incorrect. I plan on exercising a bit of liberty and changing it from 10->14. Is there anywhere that it's good practice to explain why I am going to make a change? It's sort of just. "The article says so and I counted myself."

Thank you, SashaVuk, Someone who has been assigned to have you as a mentor --SashaVuk (talk) 02:27, 12 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for Creation backlog drive

[edit]

Hello LunaEclipse:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in June!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 1 month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 June 2025 through 30 June 2025.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 3200 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:25, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
