The Barnstar of Diligence
	Thank you so much for picking up the task of slogging through the articles tagged for notability and determining if they should stay or go. I'd been doing it for several months before other things took priority, so I'm glad the work goes on. UtherSRG (talk) 13:32, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, utherSRG, and for your work on this. I have done it on and off for years and it's always nice to see others have been making a dent in it too. Boleyn (talk) 13:56, 15 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Boleyn! Thanks for all your work on the geography stubs (some of which need to be tossed for notability) - while I appreciate it, this has added about 130 articles to the November 2023 unreferenced articles category in a few hours. I know there are no hard rules about drive-by taggings, but if you have the time, would you please try to add a source or an external link to some of them? WikiProject Unreferenced articles has a very small handful of active users and our backlog is some 116,000 articles. We would also definitely appreciate having an editor of your caliber and experience involved if you'd be interested! Thank you and have a good evening. Best, Kazamzam (talk) 23:11, 21 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I had no idea I had tagged so many, sorry - I know the tags need to be there as they are unreferenced, but I appreciate it doesn't feel nice when you are working on a backlog and it goes up! I will be mindful of that if I look through any more and see if I can add any sources. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 11:53, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Much obliged :) Kazamzam (talk) 18:26, 22 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article Marc Hogan has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I deleted the above two dab pages as WP:CSD#G14. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:39, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have asked @UtherSRG to reinstate those two valid dab pages as they had been taken to AfD and there had not been enough time for other editors to contribute to discussion. PamD 13:03, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There are times an AFD can be quick closed. CSD is one of those reasons. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:08, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@UtherSRG Though your initial closes gave no such explanation. PamD 13:36, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the tool I used which gives the "quick delete" option doesn't allow for any explanation. I've updated the AFDs to indicate G14 speedy. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:45, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

UtherSRG, this was a dab with about 6 entries and another with 4 entries, in no way candidates for deletion, never mind speedy. Unfortunately there is an editor nominating hundreds of dabs for deletions and the guidelines around MOS:DABRL and MOS:DABMENTION in particular aren't well-known. Please restore. Boleyn (talk) 17:34, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

From G14: This applies to the following disambiguation pages: Disambiguation pages that have titles ending in "(disambiguation)" but disambiguate only one extant Wikipedia page. The above two pages disambiguated only one extant Wikipedia page and some number of other non-extant pages. This makes them G14 eligible. - UtherSRG (talk) 17:55, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, I see where you have got confused, UtherSRG. Both link to many pages (bluelinks). They don't have to be full articles on the person. See MOS:DABRL and MOS:DABMENTION. Boleyn (talk) 19:10, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am not confused. I disagree that there are multiple extant articles being disambiguated. - UtherSRG (talk) 19:26, 27 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I've noticed that you nominated the Database Nation article about Simson Garfinkel's book for deletion. I've found multiple reliable sources and rewritten the article to include them. I think that this article was probably nominated by accident, as you mentioned the WP:MUSICBIO and this book is about privacy and has nothing to do with music.

Hi Boleyn

Please see the recent RM at Talk:Stephen Kirk. The purpose of the move was indicated in the proposing comment - "Rather than using a pointless disambiguation page, it'd be much better to move Stephen Kirk (handballer) to Stephen Kirk and add an hatnote for each article saying "For the footballer/handballer, see Steve/Stephen Kirk"." This is a clear WP:TWODABS situation and there are no other notable people with this name. The dab page is no longer needed, and I will list it at AFD given that you've contested the PROD nomination on it. Cheers  — Amakuru (talk) 15:29, 25 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

On what basis exactly did you decide it doesn’t meet WP:N? Cheers, RadioactiveBoulevardier (talk) 04:35, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, RadioactiveBoulevardier. I couldn't find good enough sources to show it meets any part of WP:N, or any evidence of real significance. It is part of a group of hotels, which also appears to be a non-notable group. However, I read over your edit summary and removed it from CAT:NN. Hopefully someone can add to it and show more clearly how it is notable. Thanks for your work on this, Boleyn (talk) 11:43, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I've noticed that a lot of articles have lots of useless search results and the few SIGCOV results tend to get lost in there. But sometimes they actually are there, buried among the chaff.

In this case I did a "news" search, not sure which engine maybe Brave Search. I saw 2-3 candidates so I assume that there's more somewhere else. Often in 2024 we forget that not all "independent RS" are findable via The Google.

Hello. I wanted to let you know that I reversed your draftification of Monte Jackson. The reason I did this is because articles older than 90 days should not be draftified without prior consensus at AfD, per WP:DRAFTIFY (point 2d). Hey man im josh (talk) 19:19, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I also reverted the move of Craig Schlattman to draft space for the same reason. Hey man im josh (talk) 19:22, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I think my brain must have not been working well - thanksfor correcting my errors. Boleyn (talk) 13:01, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bolyen, I am wondering why you are deleting my page? And redirecting it. It is correct I just haven’t added most things, thanks 871-G (talk) 22:34, 6 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am really sorry for not giving a clear enough reason for my edit, 871-G. The article was at too early a stage for publishing - with refernces and it being clearer how it meets WP:NOTABILITY, it can easily be moved back. In the meantime, please don't let this put you off working on it. Boleyn (talk) 13:00, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed you just draftified it; I don't know how to do that but I think maybe Twin wall flues should also be. It was created by the same user at the same time and has the same kind of content. Mrfoogles (talk) 16:16, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, it still wasn't an approved draft so I have moved it back to draftspace. It has a reference, which is more than the other article, but still needs a lot of work. Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 22:01, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you are still using Evad37's version of the draftication script. Please switch to MPGuy2824's version, which is substantially better than the old version. GTrang (talk) 16:32, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, GTrang, I am using the 'Move to draft' that comes up at the side of myscreen as I have the permissions - do you think there is a way to change it there? Thanks, Boleyn (talk) 17:51, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Boleyn, please edit your common.js subpage by removing the existing line and adding ((subst:iusc|User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft.js)) to switch to the new version of the script. GTrang (talk) 21:32, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In Special:Diff/1213986179, for example, there is still a "via script" link that points to User:Evad37/MoveToDraft.js, but that script is outdated. So, please follow my above suggestion by editing User:Boleyn/common.js. Do not ignore this please! GTrang (talk) 00:33, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Boleyn, it appears we are engaged in a silly edit war on the Paul Boujenah page. In my experience, if a page has zero references, no reference section is included. Unless you plan on adding refs within the next 24 hours, I would suggest removing the section until references are available. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 19:59, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I think you maybe haven't looked at the page recently - when I wrote it was being actively worked on, I did mean that :) I also don't know of any guidelines/rules that say references sections should be deleted if it doesn't have refs yet, but please direct me to any guidelines like that, as I maybe just haven't come across them.

I don't know if there is such a guideline, but it seems obvious to me that an article shouldn't include empty sections. Next time, please don't add bare urls to a page. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 20:18, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you should edit war on what seems obvious to you, we all see things differently :) There are no guidelines I know of that ban how I added the reference (please correct me if I am wrong, as I may well be). It wasn't perfect, but was quickly putting together a refernce. Boleyn (talk) 20:21, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The page William Caulfield (disambiguation) has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was an orphaned disambiguation page which either

• disambiguated only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ended in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
• disambiguated zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
• was a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that did not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Hello! You moved Lists of Glagolitic inscriptions to draftspace because it had "no sources". It was a list of lists and therefore did not require any. I moved it back. Then you moved John Mearsheimer bibliography to draftspace because it had "no sources". The entire article is a list of sources, and like other bibliography articles lacking citations it does not need them unless claims are made, i.e. within the lead or annotations. Can you undo your move of John Mearsheimer bibliography please? Ivan (talk) 20:06, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Иованъ. Lists do need refs, as they are classed as articles. I wouldn't feel comfortable when patrolling to put articles fully into mainspace, search engines, etc. when there is no clear idea where the information has come from, especially as search engines are likely to put WP articles at the very top of the search results. Boleyn (talk) 21:49, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lists need refs. Lists of lists do not. Think of lists of lists as "advanced" disambiguation pages. See Lists of Glagolitic manuscripts for its manuscript counterpart, or Lists of New Testament minuscules for an older example, or Lists of hoards or Lists of dictionaries or Lists of deaths by year for examples currently lacking any sources at all. Or Category:Lists of lists if you are still skeptical (or List of lists of lists if you want a good laugh). These are simply articles that have grown too long for MediaWiki to render efficiently and have had to be split. Sometimes new additions don't fit any of the subsumed lists, and the list of lists page has to be used instead, and that is how sources make their way onto list of lists. Once these are placed within subsumed lists or split off into another list. Ivan (talk) 22:03, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Would it be too bold of me to redirect Ted A. Bohus to This Thing of Ours (film)? Bearian (talk) 21:27, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
