Bello Lafia

Well done sir. With due respect, I will like to you to judge me in this issue. I been contributed articles to Wikipedia since when I'm very novice here. One editor called Curb Safe Charmer has been bias on numerous articles whom I created by writing fail verification, citation need, it me up to a point for accusing me of UPE and I never created an article with promotion that could considered of been paid. He was unable to provide tangible reason, his report was terminated. He subjected me into some track following me any article that I edited by making it his bia system of editing on the article. I almost decided to leave Wikipedia because I can't write an article without been him into the article writing verification fail, citation needed, definition needed etc I decided to used my user talk page where I declared that I don't want him to be participating on my articles. Because there more thousands editors that will edit it and his edition on my articles is full of bia. He nominated numerous of my articles that are not notable for deletion, I quickly aligned with him. Yesterday, be continue attacking an article that I contributed of Bello Lafiaji. Without any evidence he decided to merge the article to his former organization. He didn't even message on my talk page about the current issue like how he used to but end up adding templates. For that reason I immediately remove the template because of his previous bia on my edition.

Finally sir, I hope you will use your highly respect position to judge my current issue with this user I mentioned earlier to you. And please help me to separate him from me of being participating on the article or edit I made. Because most of his edition on the article or edit I made is full of bia and is really annoying me. I'm very sure, there is law that says whenever user declare something on his/her talk page, that thing suppose to be considered. I'm not vandalizing Wikipedia article, edit or creating articles that are not notable. Please considered my request and judge us accordingly.

This is currently under discussion at ANI. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 06:05, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

This will be implemented the week of December 13th, but if you wish to self-assign you may do so now.

How we will see unregistered users

Hi!

You get this message because you are an admin on a Wikimedia wiki.

When someone edits a Wikimedia wiki without being logged in today, we show their IP address. As you may already know, we will not be able to do this in the future. This is a decision by the Wikimedia Foundation Legal department, because norms and regulations for privacy online have changed.

Instead of the IP we will show a masked identity. You as an admin will still be able to access the IP. There will also be a new user right for those who need to see the full IPs of unregistered users to fight vandalism, harassment and spam without being admins. Patrollers will also see part of the IP even without this user right. We are also working on better tools to help.

If you have not seen it before, you can read more on Meta. If you want to make sure you don’t miss technical changes on the Wikimedia wikis, you can subscribe to the weekly technical newsletter.

We have two suggested ways this identity could work. We would appreciate your feedback on which way you think would work best for you and your wiki, now and in the future. You can let us know on the talk page. You can write in your language. The suggestions were posted in October and we will decide after 17 January.

Thank you. /Johan (WMF)

Your ratings of articles

It is demoralizing for an editor to have his recently created or crafted articles, Robert Lapham and Edward E. McClish, given a "start" rating. Can you explain your action? What factors do you consider in rendering judgment on the quality of articles? What are the deficiencies of these articles? What must be done to elevate these articles to the barely-adequate status of "C" or "B" articles as described by Wikipedia:Content assessment? Smallchief (talk) 10:36, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

If you don't like my ratings, nothing stops you or another editor from changing it. It's unassessed so I assessed it, if you leave a Tambayan Header blank then chances are I'll find that article and assess that. B to Stub tags are just an editor's opinion and not a badge of honor. If you really want something to help improve your morale or feel that your article feels adequate then submit them to Peer Review or Wikipedia:Good article nominations. GA to FA is where it's at. --Lenticel (talk) 00:59, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
0926 Zulu for your rating of McClish and 0928 Zulu the same day for your rating of Lapham. You took two minutes to review and post your rating about articles of 1,000 words, photos, maps, footnotes, references, etc. I'll let you draw your own conclusions from that.

Review the article and suggest me the article protection methods from biased information

Hello Lenticel,

I wish you are doing great. And I am glad that I have an opportunity to contact you here. As soon as I learnt how to edit and create articles here in Wikipedia, I started to do more and more in several langauges. So far I created articles in the following fields: medicine, cinematography, sociology, history, politics, entertainment. Mostly I translated ready articles into Turkish and Uzbek Wikipedia. And I mostly edited articles in English Wikipedia by updating and renewing the existing old information. But I found there are some editors who are making a biased edits to some of my articles in several languages. For example here in English Wikipedia my article about Utkirbek Kakhorov ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utkirbek_Kakhorov ) was nominated for deletion by one of the users. Then I tried to improve the article with credited proven information on the web and I wrote about it in the needed section of the deletion. As after it is not deleted yet, the user (with the Russian username Kagansky) inserted some biased information which is not backed up with references. I want you to check out the article and its well-being. And please suggest me how to protect my articles from edits that affect the reputation of the organizations, people etc that articles are about.

Thank you for your help I appreciate it Film contributor (talk) 11:09, 16 April 2022 (UTC)

@ Film contributor I think it might be more helpful if you contact Wikipedia:WikiProject Uzbekistan instead. I can't read Uzbek so I can neither help or hinder you in that article's AfD. --Lenticel (talk) 05:01, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Request on adding more sources to Manila

Hello. Can you please check on Manila article? It has several unsourced statements, and some of its sources are unreliable. I have tried "rescuing" the article by adding some reliable sources since it may be in danger of being delisted as a Good article at its current state (although the article has improved). Since you are very experienced and adept in looking for reliable sources, maybe you can add more citations? Thanks. Sanglahi86 (talk) 12:33, 8 September 2022 (UTC)
