User:Antny08

Hello, I am a Wikipedia user that is interested in helping others improve their articles. I am an extended-confirmed user, and have over 1000 edits on here (some I have deleted). I have created many articles on Wikipedia, and am looking to help others do the same thing. I have never had any action taken against me for violating any rules, because I have not violated any. As an AfC participant, I will use my knowledge of Wikipedia and my skill to accurately, unbiasedly, and efficiently help to review articles to help make Wikipedia a better place. I am an active user and can actively check on articles and help improve them during the drafting process. Thank you for your time!

UPDATE TO APPLICATION: I have throughly reviewed Wikipedia notability guidelines, and countless other guidelines for Wikipedia, so I believe I am fit to review articles. I am fully willing to quickly answer questions from any users. Thank you.

  Not done, too many deleted articles and problems at AFD. Primefac (talk) 08:00, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
The deleted articles I have deleted myself except for some, and I have not had problems with AFD, I have only had discussions with people about what is correct and what is not. I ask that you please reconsider, as I believe I am more than fit to be a reviewer. Thank you and have a good day. Antny08 (talk) 13:08, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
For further information, I have only had 6 actually articles deleted. The rest were on talk pages / deleted to clean up space, such as my request for adminship. 3 of the articles I created that have been deleted were deleted by me, either because I realized they were not notable enough, or because of a name misspell (Battle of Namka Chun). The 3 that were deleted by others, 1 of them I was able to recreate. And the final 2 that were deleted by others and I was not able to recreate, were articles I did earlier into my time as a Wikipedia editor. I have not had any "problems" at AFD unless you are considering not agreeing with others on certain decisions as problems. Any mistakes that I have made have shown me not to make those mistakes again and why, and I believe that making these mistakes has given me more knowledge than somebody who never makes any mistakes. Thank you for your time, and I once again ask that you reconsider. Antny08 (talk) 13:15, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
33% success at AFD is a problem. You are correct that the deleted pages are not a significant portion of the pages you have written overall, but I also just found the copyright violation among your deleted pages. This decline is not a "never", just a "not now". Primefac (talk) 08:33, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
That's because according to that it says I have only participated in 3 AfDs (which is incorrect). The one for the List of military engagements of World War II is wrong, I was the one who created the AfD and I wanted it to be merged. It saying that I wanted it to be deleted is an error with the system, so I should have 66% success. Although I have not participated in many AfDs directly, I have viewed countless other AfDs, so I am more familiar with the process than it shows. Antny08 (talk) 11:22, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
A 66% success rate is still very low and a recent copyright violation is an indicator that you are not yet experienced enough for this right.   Not done, please continue to gain experience with AfD and content policies rather than arguing with this decline. Spicy (talk) 14:09, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
The copyright violation was because I was basing the text on an article off of a source I was using. It does not show I am not experienced enough in any way. I realized my mistake and as I stated earlier mistakes help you learn better than not making them in the first place. I recreated the article using my own words and it still up to this day. Having only 1 AfD result turn out against the consensus is not bad. Also note the copyright violation was multiple months ago, in my earlier times on Wikipedia, it is not that recent. Please reconsider. Antny08 (talk) 14:24, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Let me be blunt; you have had two admins tell you that you are not quite ready. I said earlier you were at a "not now". Continuing to insist that you must have access to this tool will very quickly turn that into a "never". Get some more experience, write some more articles, and come back in a couple of months. Primefac (talk) 14:31, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Okay, I will, but I believe I do have a right to argue this decision, which I properly and respectfully did, but I will not comment any further unless asked. Have a good day. Antny08 (talk) 14:39, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

User:Twinkle1990

@Primefac I'm applying again after 9+ months. I'm requesting this for a probationary period of 1-3 weeks to prove my competency. Let it be. If not then how I can prove my competency and efficiency in AfC? Twinkle1990 (talk) 15:36, 2 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
For reference see WT:WikiProject Articles for creation/Archive 53#We need to be more cautious which led to Twinkle1990 being removed. @Twinkle1990 what have you learned since that time and what would do differently? S0091 (talk) 17:02, 2 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
@S0091 whatever I learned is simple, my old perceptions and doings were wrong. And I don't hesitate to admit that I did wrong. Twinkle1990 (talk) 08:57, 3 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Twinkle1990, could you elaborate a little bit on that? What did you do wrong? Primefac (talk) 08:00, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
I did wrong by rejecting a handful of AfC drafts those were eligible for acceptance. Also, I accepted one draft, which was later deleted by AfD. At that time, I also did wrong by ignoring non-English sourcing. Those were my grave mistake. I have realized it over the time. Twinkle1990 (talk) 09:18, 4 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Primefac if you don't give chance for just a few (say 1-2 weeks) just deny my request. Otherwise, give me a chance to prove myself. Twinkle1990 (talk) 15:05, 11 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
The other requests were rather straight-forward. I am still thinking about your answers above. Please be patient. Primefac (talk) 15:12, 11 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

I'm requesting AFC helper script rights as I currently participate in recent changes/new pages patrolling and AfDs, and would like to contribute to the project further.
I've read the reviewer criteria and believe I meet them:
  • Experience in the quick-fail criteria review step from work on speedy deletions, vandalism patrols.
  • Experience in the notability and verifiability review step from participation in AfDs and my general editing/page creation.
  • Experience in the suitability review step through my own article creation, DYK submissions and general editing history. Jonathan Deamer (talk) 11:19, 21 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

User:Shonyx

I have an experience with WP:AFD and reverting articles. As a participator of WikiProject Articles for creation, I have now the experience of:
  • reject/decline the draft if the draft has low on citations and no notable support between independent sources and the draft itself.
  • approve of these drafts and move them to article space if theres a connection between independent sources, affiliated sources and the draft must have a inline citations. If does the article had 1550 letters, then I slapped (means 'nominate deletion of the article) and copyright violation.
  • declining of the draft submitted because breaks the WP:GNG, WP:BIO, etc.

Requesting AfC reviewer to help out in more general areas of Wikipedia, which includes decreasing the backlog. My account is about a year old, and while I've created very few articles overall (25~), I would say I have pretty good comprehension of the notability guidelines. I have plenty of experience in AfD, having participated in it nearly as long as I've been on Wikipedia with a 62% success rate (+ more if you count merges). I also have a general idea of other notability guidelines, but I only say "general idea" because I don't write articles for, say, sports players. I would respond to questions quickly as I am very active on-wiki. λ NegativeMP1 04:41, 5 April 2024 (UTC) λ NegativeMP1 04:41, 5 April 2024 (UTC)Reply

I've been a longtime editor with 3.5k+ edits, created (out of the 4 deleted articles 3 were self-delete) and contributed to a fair number of articles, having GA, and passed DYKs. I've participated in various WikiProjects, most notably WIR and WikiProject:Fungi. I've experience with AFDs and noticeboard discussions. For quite some time now, I'm almost regular to the wiki and if able, I hope to respond promptly to questions about my reviews. I have a good grasp of the policies and guidelines mentioned in the reviewing instructions, especially the various notability guidelines.
