Hunkpapa article

Hello @Mw52860: I wanted to reach out and let you know I undid your recent good-faith edit to Hunkpapa removing eight people because among those eight the edit removed six notable individuals (including Sitting Bull!) who do indeed have WP articles. I then followed that up with removing the two who do not have WP articles. Thanks for your watchful eye, but I think you may have made a mistake, perhaps because the items were listed by the Native name first rather than the translated Anglo names.

Oops yes, yes I wasn't paying enough attention, my bad. Yes Sitting Bull is kind of a big deal, thank you for catching it and fixing it. --Mw52860 (talk) 16:28, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Addition of notable to Vernon Township

Why in this edit did you add Donna Weinbrecht as a notable in Vernon Township, New Jersey? Why would you add this entry without a reliable and verifiable source establishing a connection to the place? Alansohn (talk) 14:04, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Because source linking her to spending childhood there skiing. Could be debatable if that should count or not. I'm okay with her not there. --Mw52860 (talk) 14:06, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Notables need reliable and verifiable sources

This edit added Stephen Panasuk as a notable to the article for Howell Township, New Jersey. There's no source in your edit and no source in his article. Please only add entries in lists of notables with a reliable and verifiable source to support the claim. Alansohn (talk) 18:56, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Agreed. I'll trace through my logic and figure out what tab I was supposed to put him in. Think wrong one. My apologies. Thank you for being New Jersey gatekeeper. --Mw52860 (talk) 19:02, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

I figured it out, his born date on the right hand side had it as Howell. I'm going to mark it as needing a citation. Thanks again. --Mw52860 (talk) 19:12, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

Notable people - removing redlinks

Hi Mw52860, I see that jou have been removing redlinked entries, as in this edit to Liepāja. However at least 3 of those names have articles in the Latvian Wikipedia, and possibly others have articles in the Russian Wikipedia, so they are notable, it's just that equivalent articles have not yet been written in English, Similarly with your edit to Rouen - the three names you removed all have articles in the French Wikipedia. Keeping redlinks is important because they are a reminder to other editors that these people are notable enough to have articles written about them. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 14:44, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

Not sure how to do it, but linking them to other wikipedias can be done. That'll help a lot. I've seen them done with the German and Spainish wikipedia. Unsure how to though. Thanks for monitoring and cleaning it up. Think I'll try to stay in North America. --Mw52860 (talk) 15:39, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

See Help:Interwiki linking - add a colon before and after the language abbreviation (WP Code) (per List of Wikipedias), e.g. use [[:de:articlename]] to link to "articlename" in the German Wikipedia. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 15:52, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

There's another way of doing it, which preserves the redlink, as well as showing that there's an article in another language Wikipedia - see Template:Interlanguage link. Cheers, Bahudhara (talk) 07:05, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
