Vital Articles reform
Per Wikipedia:Village pump (idea lab)#VA 2022 Reform, how exactly do you think the Vital article project should be reformed? I'm really interested at your ideas. CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 12:04, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
- CactiStaccingCrane, I haven't thought about the issue too deeply tbh. I think we need the community to get together and look at VA as a whole so we can get consensus on what the issues actually are. If not we might end up proposing solutions that are inadequate or unlikely to gain consensus. I greatly appreciate you coming to my page, though, and share your wish to see the system improved. — Ixtal ( T / C ) ⁂ Join WP:FINANCE! 12:19, 10 August 2022 (UTC)

Assistance requested
Hi there! Following up on your comment from Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/Optional RfA candidate poll, would you mind taking a look at Sundrum Castle? I've managed to expand it from a bare-bones stub to at least a class C at least. Any comments would be very welcome! I think I ran out of steam a bit with the current status and description sections. Not sure how far away it is from applying for GA status. Thank you. -Kj cheetham (talk) 17:29, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) A couple of things I took note of after a quick browse. A lot of the history section reads as a list of disconnected factoids with no chronological narrative. For example, you discuss the discounted Pictish origin theory (which could do with a bit of detail, who thought it Pictish, and why, and what disruptive it?) separately from the actual building of the castle. The whole history section could use a once over with that in mind. I'd also drop them mention of the green lady haunting unless you can find better sources than websites about spooky ghosty places. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 17:47, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- ScottishFinnishRadish Thank you for the comments! I've expanded the comment about being Pictish, and made a start re-ordering some of the history section to make it more chronological. I'll leave the mention of the haunting whilst I have a look at the sources again, as I vaguely remember something more concrete somewhere (more than the passing mention at https://www.deadlinenews.co.uk/2018/09/05/stunning-castle-tower-available-for-rent-at-1300pcm-complete-with-resident-ghost/). -Kj cheetham (talk) 18:16, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Ixtal/WP:TPSs, I've done some more work to expand it, would you mind taking another look? Any help on the copyediting side would be much appreciated. I think I find it easier to proof-read other people's work than my own! Hopefully I can submit it to GA soon, though imagine it may be a while before it gets reviewed. Thank you. -Kj cheetham (talk) 15:55, 20 August 2022 (UTC)
- I'll take a look later today, if I forget pls ping me, Kj cheetham. — Ixtal ( T / C ) ⁂ Join WP:FINANCE! 16:02, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Doug Weller talk 10:15, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Doug Weller, replying in discussion threads on mobile using the built-in tool does not leave an edsum or allow you to write one. Not much I can do in those cases. — Ixtal ( T / C ) ⁂ Non nobis solum. 10:47, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
- Fair enough. But if you really want to delete sourced material, please get consensus on the talk page first. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 10:50, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
