Your GA review of Cross of Saint James edit

Sorry, but I had to stop editing for a while. I went back and worked through everything you listed at Talk:Cross of Saint James/GA1. Can we move forward with this? Thanks! --evrik (talk) 21:41, 16 May 2023 (UTC)

I am having trouble finding a reliable source for those two minor points. I could use the cathloic encylopeida for one, and maybe this for the other [[:File:Navarrete pavement camino marker.jpg|A pavement marker indicates the route of the Way of St James through Navarrete, La Rioja, Spain]]. --evrik (talk) 03:58, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Women in Red 8th Anniversary edit

  Women in Red 8th Anniversary
In July 2015 around 15.5% of the English Wikipedia's biographies were about women. As of July 2023, 19.61% of the English Wikipedia's biographies are about women. That's a lot of biographies created in the effort to close the gender gap. Happy 8th Anniversary! Join us for some virtual cake and add comments or memories and please keep on editing to close the gap!

GAN fail comments edit

Hey, I saw you closed the discussion at Talk:Protist/GA1 and it left me with some unanswered questions. Isn't the reviewing period supposed to last 7 days? How come it can be failed before 5 of the aforementioned days? Especially before a second round of edits could be made on my part. Did I address your comments wrong in the first round? I never got to address the newer comments. Overall I get the feeling that Wikipedia follows a faster rhythm that I still haven't grasped. Although it is a relief that I'm no longer time-constrained, I would like to understand the GAN process better, especially for the future Protist nomination, because it left me quite confused. Thank you anyways for all of your review comments, I'll make sure to implement them and make the article more readable for a wider audience. —Snoteleks 🦠 11:11, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

@Snoteleks First and foremost, thank you so much for reaching out!! So, WP:GA has a policy colloqually referred to as Quickfailing. I understand that I said I'd be lenient with time, but the general rule is that if the issues for an article would take more than 7 days to correct then it should be failed. In this case, the prose, MOS, and unsourced section issues require a substantial rewrite of the page.
Normally, there is a longer wait time, however the backlog drive is speeding things along much faster. I tend to do science oriented reviews, and a lot of your work catches my interest. If you'd like help with the article please let me know, once the backlog drive ends I won't have much on my plate. 🏵️Etrius ( Us) 11:55, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day! edit

Introduction to contentious topics edit

 

You have recently edited a page related to Eastern Europe or the Balkans, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

  • adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
  • comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
  • follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
  • comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
  • refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

  This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in the Russo-Ukrainian War. Due to past disruption in this topic area, the community has authorised uninvolved administrators to impose contentious topics restrictions—such as editing restrictions, bans, or blocks—on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, expected standards of behaviour, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic. For additional information, please see the guidance on these sanctions. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
