@Panini!: Well, that's an accident. That time I somehow managed to load a single section into the edit box, with MediaWiki thinking that I was editing the whole article. When I clicked the publish button, the whole page just went boom... Milky·Defer 14:55, 20 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Danqing

Disambiguation or redirect is only needed if they are the same word or spelling in English, since Danqing and Dancheong are spelled very differently, and people who search for Danqing is clearly searching for the Chinese Pinyin or the Chinese word Danqing in Chinese culture, Dancheong here is not needed. Although Dancheong is the Korean's English/Romanized translation of the original Chinese characters, and the word has taken its own place in Korean culture, to single it out here on the Danqing page is not needed.

@Hanren1: No, you got it wrong. I am using {{Distinguish}}. This template is used exactly when two page names are similar, but not identical.

"But they spell very differently!"

They may seem not similar, but when pronounced, they sound alike. Also, they appear alike when written in their original language, respectively. Also, we are writing Wikipedia for readers' sake. Readers have already had confusion on Danqing and Dancheong, and I believe that is why you are here joining us. It is for readers' good to help them find their right place. If you still feel like I should stick firmly around the rules (that might not fit in this case!), I recommend you read Wikipedia:Ignore all rules, one of our most fundamental rules. Don't get confined by rules, remember whom we are serving.

BTW, use talk pages for discussion, and always leave your signature. Also, please don't edit war. Milky·Defer >Please ping me while replying to me... 14:55, 7 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

	The Random Acts of Kindness Barnstar
	For correcting my Japanese. I'm still learning but greatly appreciate any corrections cause if I'm wrong I won't know it unless I'm corrected. Oddly enough you say you don't know Japanese at all and yet your corrections would suggest otherwise. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{Blaze Wolf#6545} 14:53, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Help with verifying content from Chinese source

Hey! I'm planning to make a mini-GA out of Leyou in the not-too-distant future. I rewrote the article back in 2021, with this article (from what appears to be a Chinese business analysis site) providing much information for the poultry-to-games transition. Since I do not speak any Chinese, I unfortunately needed to machine-translate the important bits. Now that I'm planning to GA it, I figured that a necessary first step would be to have that information properly verified. Since you speak Chinese, would you able to help out? Regards, IceWelder [✉] 12:15, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@IceWelder: I have compared the article with the source you provided. Here are my conclusions.

Lin Qinglin founded and became the general manager of Xiamen Xian Wu Modern Office Facilities Operation Company in January 1985 and served until June 1998. Perhaps this is covered by the other source, but the Chinese source only mentioned that Lin Qinglin founded that company in the 80s, without providing specific years.
The company (Xiamen Xian Wu Modern Office Facilities Operation Company) acted as an agent for fax machines manufactured by Panasonic. Yes.
During the late 1990s, the Longyan local government encouraged investments in chicken processing operations. Not found.
Lin had already opened a food shop in Xiamen, which he incorporated as Xiamen Sumpo Group Limited in June 1998. Actual date is not mentioned in the source, but other parts are roughly verified.
Using the profits from his previous venture, he established the meat production company Sumpo (Longyan) Industrial Co. Ltd. in Longyan in September. Again, actual date not mentioned, but other parts verified.
Lin oversaw the latter's main business, which dealt with chicken products, animal feed, and chicken seedlings. Among the company's clients were McDonald's, KFC, and Dicos in mainland China. Yes.
Lin stepped down ... evolved into a large food processing business, Not mentioned.
... producing 10,000 tons of meat and 180,000 tons of "Sumpo"-branded seed annually. Well, how do you define "meat"? If it means "deeply processed meat products", then verified. If it just means "raw meat", then nope. Also it would be "feed", not "seed".
It had a net profit of ¥57 million RMB in 2009. Yes.
On 22 February 2010, Sumpo Food Holdings Limited was incorporated as a holding company in the Cayman Islands, acquiring the outstanding 90% of Fujian Sumpo. Not found.
It completed an initial public offering ... HK$550 million. Yes.
Due to increased competition in the animal breeding industry, ... but was unsuccessful. Verified. Though I need to point out that the reasons for Sumpo's loss are "increased competition", and pandemics happening from time to time, according to the source.
The acquisition of Digital Extreme's shares was completed in July 2015. Yes.
The company acquired the remaining 39% in Digital Extremes in May 2016 for US$65 million. Yes.

The above is a sentence-to-sentence breakdown analysis of the article where source No.4 is used. I noticed that a press release is also used alongside this source, so perhaps some information not mentioned in source No.4 can be found in that press release.

Further notice: I did not evaluate the reliability of the source. I don't know much about business, and those "business analysis institutes". Milky Defer 14:04, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, some additional information was taken from the IPO filing. I will be reworking the article with both sources again when I find the time. Thanks for your help! IceWelder [✉] 14:10, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

VP

sorry about that post, when I made it I was mostly just excited about seeing wikifunctions open up access to all users when i made it. but it wasn't very clear and I got embarrassed, I'll only repost it if I can figure out a more coherent way of saying what I meant to say. cheers!

GNG

Hello @MilkyDefer! I noticed you added some banners to Internet checkpoint. Whilst I agree some of the sources may not be fully reliable, I disagree entirely with it failing WP:GNG. The phenomenon has significant coverage in a peer reviewed journal, the entire publication is about the phenomenon, not just a trivial mention within. There are also multiple outlets that have reported on it, including Dazed, The New Yorker, two French publications and a published book. I am not going to remove the GNG banner, as I am interested how you came to this verdict. 11WB (talk) 23:48, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My verdict came from my first impression of the sourcing of the Taia777 section. I am particularly sensitive to Chinese and Japanese sources, and I see questionable quality. My gut feeling is further amplified by the use of a YouTube video (disguised as Internet Archive page) and the use of a (presumably Master's, judging by page length) thesis. I also clearly remember a previous failed attempt to revive the Stickerbush Symphony article.

Would you please try to nuke the questionable sources and rewrite the article so that it leaves a better impression to other editors? Milky Defer 04:12, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I responded over on the other talk page in detail. It is unfair to exclude the other editor, so I changed my mind about switching over here. 11WB (talk) 04:18, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Our other talk page discussion has been moved here. I apologise for the various locations of this discussion, I contacted the wrong editor regarding the addition of those banners to the article. To respond to your reply above, I appreciate that you mainly contribute over on the Chinese Wikipedia in a similar role to what I do here on the English Wikipedia. I am unaware of the Stickerbush Symphony article and I have never edited that particular redirect. Regarding the Master's thesis, per WP:THESIS, they are not automatically disqualified from being used. That particular source is also only used to verify what a checkpoint is in video games.

I have removed the sources you flagged. Based on our interaction, I think it would be appropriate now to remove the unreliable sources banner. As for nuking the article, this comes under WP:TNT and would be completely inappropriate as the article is written appropriately for Wikipedia. I will conclude by asking that in future you don't immediately assume an article fails WP:GNG because of a few questionable sources. There are particular use cases for certain types of sources, including WP:SPS, for example in WP:BLP articles where the SPS is from the subject of the article in question. Thank you for making sure Wikipedia articles are reliable! 11WB (talk) 05:41, 27 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
