Ethics Workshop Participation Request edit
Hi! We're conducting a series of participatory workshops with Wikipedia editors, administrators, researchers, and Wikimedia employees to discuss, and hopefully improve, Wikipedia's structures for online research (see meta research page). In an effort to get the right people in the room to discuss these topics, I'm reaching out here to see if you are interested in participating as an active administrator. We'd work with you to ensure this workshop can fit into your schedule, but are targeting end of April/early May. I'm happy to discuss any of these topics further here or on our talk page.

Query edit
Hello, Bilby,
I was deleting a broken redirect to Gondwana Ecotour an article you deleted on grounds of CSD G5. This is confusing to me because the page creator is not a block-evading sockpuppet and the article wasn't tagged for speedy deletion. Can you tell me who the sockmaster is for this editor? Because they aren't blocked on any grounds. Thank you for any information you can provide to clear this up. Liz Read! Talk! 02:55, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Liz! The author is a sock of User:Eyoab based on off-wiki evidence. I am passing that on to paid-en, but they tend to take a while to respond, and as there is no doubt of the connection I deleted it as part of a broader cleanup of multiple accounts in the sockfarm. - Bilby (talk) 03:32, 28 March 2024 (UTC)

Help in Positive Review edit
@Bilby Can You help me with Positive Reivew for Draft:Vaibhav Palhade ? dont know why it is not getting accepted. cause the sources i added are from reputed indian media
Content Meets Notability Guidelines The draft article on Vaibhav Palhade appears to meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for individuals. The article provides detailed information on Palhade's professional achievements, awards, and contributions, which demonstrate that he is a notable figure worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia.The article cites reliable sources, such as news articles and professional profiles, to support the claims made about Palhade's background and accomplishments. This suggests the content is well-researched and verifiable.Therefore, the maintenance template indicating the subject may not meet notability guidelines can be removed, as the article content appears to justify the inclusion of Vaibhav Palhade on Wikipedia.I hope this provides a valid reason for removing the maintenance template. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Steelbird1967 (talk) 13:16, 27 April 2024 (UTC)
