The Gray Man

Hi. We seem to be on the same page. The film never mentions Court Gentry or Avik San. My question is why are they in the end credits? Avik San is in the end credits while Court Gentry is in the other language end credits (in Netflix with 2:18 time left). DareshMohan (talk) 13:55, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

@DareshMohan: We don't usually do anything with non-English end credits. "Court Gentry" is not mentioned in the film nor in the English end credits (credits say "Six", but "Sierra Six" is explicitly stated in the film and supported by RS's). I don't know who this Avik San is, but if he's in the English end credits then it's OK to put that in the cast listing. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:39, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
But his character name is Lone Wolf. Clearly nobody knows who this Avik San is. The person who made the end credits made an error and that should not be reflected in wiki. DareshMohan (talk) 16:42, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Per WP:FILMCAST, All names should be referred to as credited, or by common name supported by a reliable source. Your initial comment seemed to indicate that "Avik San" is included in the end credits, and I found several sources which mention that name: [1], [2], [3], [4]. If you think this shouldn't be in the cast listing, I would advise discussing on the talk page with the active editors of that page. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:55, 23 July 2022 (UTC)
Ok since it says "or common name", leave it as Lone Wolf in the article. Found out where Court Gentry comes from: the novel. DareshMohan (talk) 18:17, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Move Blade

Hi Nexus (or Infinite), after you finish updating the P5/6 drafts/articles with that helpful Variety ref, could you move Blade (film) to Blade (1998 film) since there is no primary topic for the 2023 MCU one? — SirDot (talk) 17:32, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

I'll look into it after I'm done with this. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:34, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
  Done. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:56, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Look you probably don't want to discuss this here

Look I probably said this once you have rules and I understand that and I'm doing everything I can to try to follow the rules. But with the thing like Namor you didn't believe the promo art was valid but now you've seen the trailer and recent merchandise it turns out it was true all along. The thing with I hope you can understand and won't use this as an excuse ever but I'm just more open minded. And I've come to know and I don't always believe every article I see but I've come to know somethings can be more reliable and accurate than they seem. I'll always still try to run by things when I see them with you guys and not blindly try to put down everything in an article. But I'm more than willing to give them a little faith. I'm not trying to get you to accept my views or change yours I'm just hoping you understand. Is that acceptable? 0Detail-Attention215 (talk) 18:50, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I'd say it was still wise of us to wait, given no other reliable trades had reproduced Huerta's casting citing Vice. —El Millo (talk) 19:22, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
@0Detail-Attention215: I had zero doubts that the Namor rumors were true, but we still needed a reliable source which actually confirmed that. WP:VNT. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:18, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

DYK for Multiverse (Marvel Cinematic Universe)

On 28 July 2022, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Multiverse (Marvel Cinematic Universe), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that while Marvel Comics originally designated the main reality depicted in the MCU multiverse as Earth-199999, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness established it as Earth-616? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Multiverse (Marvel Cinematic Universe). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Multiverse (Marvel Cinematic Universe)), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. 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.

New Page Patrol newsletter August 2022

 
New Page Review queue August 2022

Hello InfiniteNexus,

Backlog status

After the last newsletter (No.28, June 2022), the backlog declined another 1,000 to 13,000 in the last week of June. Then the July backlog drive began, during which 9,900 articles were reviewed and the backlog fell by 4,500 to just under 8,500 (these numbers illustrate how many new articles regularly flow into the queue). Thanks go to the coordinators Buidhe and Zippybonzo, as well as all the nearly 100 participants. Congratulations to Dr vulpes who led with 880 points. See this page for further details.

Unfortunately, most of the decline happened in the first half of the month, and the backlog has already risen to 9,600. Understandably, it seems many backlog drive participants are taking a break from reviewing and unfortunately, we are not even keeping up with the inflow let alone driving it lower. We need the other 600 reviewers to do more! Please try to do at least one a day.

Coordination
MB and Novem Linguae have taken on some of the coordination tasks. Please let them know if you are interested in helping out. MPGuy2824 will be handling recognition, and will be retroactively awarding the annual barnstars that have not been issued for a few years.
Open letter to the WMF
The Page Curation software needs urgent attention. There are dozens of bug fixes and enhancements that are stalled (listed at Suggested improvements). We have written a letter to be sent to the WMF and we encourage as many patrollers as possible to sign it here. We are also in negotiation with the Board of Trustees to press for assistance. Better software will make the active reviewers we have more productive.
TIP - Reviewing by subject
Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages by their most familiar subjects can do so from the regularly updated sorted topic list.
 
New reviewers
The NPP School is being underused. The learning curve for NPP is quite steep, but a detailed and easy-to-read tutorial exists, and the Curation Tool's many features are fully described and illustrated on the updated page here.
Reminders
  • Consider staying informed on project issues by putting the project discussion page on your watchlist.
  • If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, suggest they help the effort by placing {{subst:NPR invite}} on their talk page.
  • If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.
  • To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

Criteria for a fictional character to get their own Wikipedia Page

Hello InfiniteNexus, I hope you are doing well. I am interested to know what are the criterias needed for a fictional character to get their own Wiki page. Seaweed Brain1993 (talk) 05:20, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

@Seaweed Brain1993: That depends on what kind of character you're talking about. For original characters, an article would be warranted if the character has received enough coverage to satisfy WP:GNG. That usually means a character isn't likely to receive an article unless they have main/recurring roles across multiple works of fiction, or in special cases if they have received significant attention and/or extensive analysis from reliable sources. If the character is an adaptation of another character, extensive coverage/info/analysis that isn't WP:ROTM would be needed in order to justify a WP:SPLIT of the source page, and for MCU characters specifically, see WP:MCUCHARACTERS.

Wheely

Hello! On behalf of Wheely, I've submitted 4 edit requests to improve and update the company's Wikipedia article as part of my work at Beutler Ink. I've fully disclosed my conflict of interest at Talk:Wheely, where I've also identified specific issues with the current entry and proposed changes for editor review. Despite using Template:Request edit and seeking editor help at various WikiProjects, I've struggled to get feedback. You reviewed my requests for Waymo previously, so I was wondering if you might be willing to take a look at what I've proposed for Wheely. If you are not interested, I will continue to seek assistance at WikiProjects and other help pages. Thanks for your consideration, Inkian Jason (talk) 15:17, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

@Inkian Jason: I've been a little busy lately, but I'll see if I can find some time to take a look at this at some point, hopefully later in the week. InfiniteNexus (talk) 02:55, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
Great, thanks so much! Inkian Jason (talk) 15:19, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
