Red links are to be avoided... Please do not create them by linking to non-existent articles unless you intend to create that article ASAP... GWFrog (talk) 13:44, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

See: Wikipedia:Red link... GWFrog (talk) 13:46, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

From the WP:REDYES you cited: "Creating a red link also carries the responsibility to first ascertain that the red link is a valid title of a page, and that its foreseeable new subject matter will meet the notability guidelines for topics covering: people (WP:BIO), web content (WP:WEB), businesses (WP:CORP), and more." Although David Korn will very likely, at some future time, become sufficiently notable to have his own article due to his becoming more than an interim head coach, Brian Jones will likely remain a largely unknown goalkeepers coach due mainly to his lack of a college education which is usually a requirement for attaining higher level coaching positions. He could well rise above the lack, but at this time, both coaches are insufficiently notable to deserve their own articles, otherwise, I probably would have created those articles myself at about the same time I created the navbox. Additionally, what might appear in Category:NCAA Division I FBS coach navigational boxes has no bearing on what might appear in a soccer coach navbox; apples are not oranges...GWFrog (talk) 14:37, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@GWFrog: The format for college coach navboxes does not change based on sport.Joeykai (talk) 14:40, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@GWFrog: Basically look at anything in Category:American college athletic coach navigational boxes. The format is consistent.Joeykai (talk) 14:43, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Your claim that "...they all use red links..." is patently bogus. Some do, the majority do not. Your statement that, "The format is consistent" holds true only in that most of those red links are from coaches who worked more than a few years ago, so that citing references to justify their notability proves difficult... Current coaches generally do not have red links because the references of their notability is abundantly available... GWFrog (talk) 15:15, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

They all use either red links or are blue links. There are no unlinked coaches. The format is consistent.Joeykai (talk) 15:53, 2 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Consistent does not equal correct. Thousands and thousands of consistently incorrect incidents is naught but thousands and thousands of wrong entries. Rather than adding additional wrong entries in order to be consistent, the right and proper action would be to remove the improper red links... GWFrog (talk) 15:56, 3 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Joey, "mf=y" coding should be used in all non-military articles that use American English; it means "month first dates = yes," i.e., standard format American-style dates such as January 1, 2015: [1]. This is supposed to be part of the standard formatting for Template:Birth date and Template:Death data for every biographical article written in American English (with an exception for certain articles about the U.S. military because the military uses DMY dates), and the same infobox templates in bios written in British and Commonwealth English are supposed to be encoded with "df=y". Please do not remove this coding from the infoboxes of NFL players or any other American biographical subject. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 03:05, 11 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi, this works and requires less typing :) Frietjes (talk) 20:15, 11 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Joey, I have reverted your recent additions to Template:Florida Gators football navbox. There were multiple problems with what you represented as the "history" of the University of Florida "Florida Gators" football team:

1. There was no continuity of legal existence between the old Florida Agricultural College/University of Florida at Lake City (1884–1905) and the modern University of Florida (1905-present);

2. The modern University of Florida had not one, but four predecessor institutions: (1) Florida Agricultural College/University of Florida at Lake City, (2) East Florida Seminary in Gainesville, (3) St. Petersburg Normal and Industrial School in St. Petersburg, and (4) Florida Military College Bartow;

3. The predecessor institution in Lake City was founded as the Florida Agricultural College in 1884, and was known as the "University of Florida" for its last two years of existence (1903–1905) -- from the 1880s until 1903, the West Florida Seminary, one of Florida State's predecessor institutions, was officially called the "University of Florida";

4. The Florida State Legislature passed the Buckman Act in 1905, which legally abolished the University of Florida's four predecessor institutions -- that is, they legally ceased to exist as corporate entities -- and the legislature created a new entity, the "University of the State of Florida, and endowed it with the assets of the four predecessors and consolidated their academic programs within the new entity's purview;

5. All existing faculty members, including the university president, were required to re-apply for their jobs in 1905;

6. The new university was a men-only institution, whereas the four predecessors were co-ed;

7. The new university recognized 1905 as its founding date until the 1930s, where president John Tigert and the state attorney general agreed to retroactively adopt EFS's 1853 opening as the new university's "founding" date;

8. The modern University of Florida was officially known as the "University of the State of Florida" from 1905 to 1909, when the name was officially shortened to the University of Florida;

9. The FAC/UFLC football team was never officially known as the "Blue and White", nor was EFS's football team ever officially known as the "Orange and Black";

10. The 1905 squad would have been the first varsity football team of the modern University of Florida, but president Andrew Sledd cancelled the 1905 season when several members of the team were declared academically eligible;

11. Adding to the confusion, the new university operated on the Lake City campus of FAC/UFLC during the 1905–06 school year, while the new Gainesville campus was being built, and moved its faculty and students to Gainesville in August of 1906;

12. The modern University of Florida and the University Athletic Association do not recognize the pre-1905 FAC/UFLC or EFS football teams as part of the Florida Gators football team's history or win-loss record -- the first officially recognized varsity football team of the modern university is/was the 1906 squad;

13. The new university's colors were orange and blue -- a combination of the blue and white of FAC/UFLC and the orange and black of EFS; and

14. The new university's first football coach was James Forsythe, the last football coach of Florida State College in 1904, and only one player from the last FAC/UFLC team in 1904 was a member of the new university's first football team in 1906.

In short, there was a major break from the prior history of the predecessor institutions and teams in 1905, when the new university came into being. The history is complicated, but the break point was the 1905 Buckman Act, which legally did away with the four predecessor institutions and created a new state university to take their places. In order to get a better understanding of the messy political, legal, corporate and academic history surrounding the modern University of Florida, you need to read the Andrew Sledd, Henry Holland Buckman and History of the University of Florida articles, as well as the history sections of the University of Florida and Florida Gators football articles. The key is understanding that modern University of Florida did not exist until the Florida state legislature legally abolished Florida Agricultural College/University of Florida at Lake City, East Florida Seminary in Gainesville, St. Petersburg Normal and Industrial School in St. Petersburg, and South Florida Military College Bartow, and consolidated their assets and academic programs in the new "University of the State of Florida" (the modern University of Florida) in 1905. The new University of the State of Florida was a legally separate and distinct animal from the old Florida Agricultural College in Lake City, which was known as the "University of Florida" for its last two years of existence. Because the modern university did not exist until 1905, the University Athletic Association does not recognize the win-loss records of the pre-1905 FAC/UFLC or EFS football teams; the other two predecessors did not have teams.

I hope this helps. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 16:00, 17 September 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Joeykai. In this edit, your script made several fixes, but also two mistakes:

• It changed "2000-cash notes" to "2000–cash notes" (the hyphen was right there).
• It changed hyphens in an ISBN (in the |isbn= parameter of a citation template) to en-dashes.

Joey, please provide a linked reference on the module talk page for this change: [2]. Because of past vandalism and edit-warring over changes to college sports team colors, all changes and additions to the color module must be documented. As a temporary solution, we are adding linked sources for all such changes to the module talk page, so that the changes and additions may be easily confirmed by other editors. In the near future, those linked sources will be added directly to the module for quick and easy confirmation. Your cooperation and assistance are appreciated. Thanks.

@Dirtlawyer1: I have not changed colors, I've just added colors that were not there. For this edit I took the colors already in Template:Southern Jaguars football navbox and added them to the module because there had previously been no Southern U colors in the module. Reverting this edit goes back to having NO colors for Southern rather than having possibly slightly wrong colors that were already in wide use across various Southern Jaguars wikipedia pages and templates.Joeykai (talk) 02:43, 23 November 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Joey, try searching South Alabama Jaguars brand identity, University of South Alabama brand identity, South Alabama Jaguars hex colors, and University of South Alabama hex colors using Google. The overwhelming majority of major American universities now post their official Hex and/or Pantone colors on their websites in order to present a consistent image and trademarks to the public, and to control third-party sports marketing of their teams. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 02:51, 23 November 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Joey, the colors you're changing to are no longer the actual colors the schools use. If the policy is the official colors don't offer enough contrast, then we should be taking the colors out completely, not changing them to something that the schools don't actually use. Either way, the new scheme on Military Classic of the South looks atrocious. Billcasey905 (talk) 21:23, 21 November 2015 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Definition of Youth soccer

I would say youth football is under-18/schoolboy/schoolgirl while college soccer is 18 to 21 and should be regarded as senior especially in the USA or Ireland. Campbell and Connolly are both senior Republic of Ireland internationals so how can their club teams be listed as youth teams. Campbell had a senior career playing at national league, Champions League and senior international level, before playing college soccer, yet you placed college career in youth years chronologically before her senior career, this makes no sense to me and is misleading. Djln Djln (talk) 21:13, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Djln: look at the infoboxes of say, Alex Morgan, Abby Wambach, Clint Dempsey, Mia Hamm, basically literally any other soccer player; college soccer belongs in the youth section. Joeykai (talk) 22:03, 24 January 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

• I disagree. It may make sense in these particular articles but not in every article. There is no rule written in stone we have to follow like sheep. As I said above, Campbell played national league, Champions League and senior international level, before playing college soccer. It makes no chronological sense ?

then change all the other templates to gold. Gold is the correct color and Black and Gold are compliant. We've been over this before. Joeykai (talk) 20:59, 15 May 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Joeykai: Gold may be the second color used by the Pittsburgh Pirates; however, for formatting purposes, the second color listed for the Pirates at Module:Baseball color/data should be  white . Please discuss at the module's talk page before reverting again. Charlesaaronthompson (talk) 21:35, 17 May 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

the Pirates' colors are black and gold. Represent the correct colors for the team (black and gold) or incorrect colors for the team (what you want, for some reason)? It's not a hard choice. Joeykai (talk) 03:24, 18 May 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing, as you did at Template:2016 OFC Nations Cup Group B table.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Hey, I was just curious for your rationale of abbreviating "touchdown" as "TD" in the infobox, like here. I see it often, and you may not be the only one who does it (I only checked for this one occurrence) but in most cases abbreviating it as opposed to typing it out doesn't save any line space.

Hello Joeykai,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Mattias Elfström for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Dane2007 (talk) 18:51, 1 July 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello, Joeykai. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Yegor Rykov, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Yegor Rykov to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

I see you sometimes use a script to change various spellings based on which country’s conventions make sense. Unfortunately, it’s casting too wide a net. A lot of the words changed (e.g. ‘color’, ‘center’) are part of HTML markup or Wikicode, and have to be spelled that way. The software won’t work if the word isn’t spelled as in the definition (which is usually the American way). I don’t know if the script you use can ignore things in code or quotations. Maybe it can be run in a no-edit mode, so it can identify words that should be changed, and you can use a manual search and replace to change only the instances that are appropriate.

I have been doing this in the same format for several years, and you are suddenly making changes without giving any reason for the changes.

In point of fact, Template:Goal gives absolutely zero guidance on how to typically indicate assists, and the only guidance for PKs is to include "|pen." inside the bracket, which adds a "pen." notation...

The same goes for Alphonso Davies. Yes, he was born in Liberia, but WP:FOOTY rules are that if he represents a nation at the international level he should be considered of that nation. The fact that he has never represented Liberia internationally somewhat precludes him being a Liberian footballer. That he has represented Canada without holding Canadian nationality is not germane to the discussion. In short, he's not a Liberian Footballer, but if you take the discussion to WP:FOOTY, I will go along with their consensus on the topic. Walter Görlitz (talk) 07:02, 3 October 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

He can be listed in both categories (Liberian footballers and Canadian soccer players). For anything that cannot reasonably use two nationalities, then go with Canada, I am in agreement. But for categories, he can be listed under both. Joeykai (talk) 07:05, 3 October 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Be careful with renaming ice hockey player categories. Ice hockey players are categorized based on the name of the team during the time they played on the team. So in atleast two cases that I fixed today many of the articles had to have their categories switched back to the original one. If you are trying to put players in a new name of the team just create a new category for a new name and then only put the players who have played since the name changed in that category. -DJSasso (talk) 14:56, 14 September 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Joeykai, I noticed your recent edit to 2006 UC Santa Barbara Gauchos men's soccer navbox with the following note added:

"The only criteria for inclusion in this navbox is the existence of a player or coach's page on Wikipedia. If other players or coaches from this team have Wikipedia pages, they should be included in this navbox. It is not the intention of this navbox to include the entire team roster, as college athletes do not automatically meet Wikipedia's notability requirements, unlike professional athletes."

As someone who doesn't deal a ton in the Navbox space like yourself, I was interested to learn from you the reasoning as to such a statement. Can you point me to where this resides on Wikipedia, either as MOS or consensus elsewhere? I can't seem to find it when I've looked. Thanks in advance for pointing me in the right direction! GauchoDude (talk) 15:36, 18 January 2017 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thanks for the response. After doing more digging, I was able to come across NAVBOX, which doesn't shed a ton of light on this topic. There is also an unofficial essay, EXISTING, which proposes that the articles must be existing in bullet point 2, which is much more relevant. I don't think that's the ultimate golden rule, as it is an essay after all, but I thought I'd share with you if you hadn't come across those previously.

The Canadian spelling of centre does not work in the stat tables. You didn't change the spelling for "style="text-align:center" but if you were to do so it wouldn't work.

Thank you for your contributions to women's football/soccer articles.

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: August 2017

Should the women's football task force become WikiProject: WOSO?

According to an op-ed in the recent Signpost, some editors think task forces and subgroups are dying in 2017. What do you think about forming our own WikiProject separate from WP:FOOTY? There's an on-going discussion of the potential pros and cons on the task force talk page. Input is welcome.

Recent developments New initiatives have been created for: FA WSL (England's top-division league) NCAA (American university teams, conferences, etc.) W-League (Australia's top-division league) Ongoing tournaments UEFA Women's Euro 2017 (July 16 – August 6, 2017) UEFA Women's Euro 2017 Final (August 6, 2017) 2017 Tournament of Nations (July 27– August 3, 2017) Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues 2017 National Women's Soccer League season (United States) ongoing 2017–18 Liga MX Femenil season (Mexico) ongoing 2017–18 W-League (Australia) starts in Sept. 2017–18 FA WSL (England) starts in Sept. 2017–18 Division 1 Féminine (France) starts in Sept. 2017–18 Frauen-Bundesliga (Germany) starts in Sept. 2017–18 Indian Women's League season (India) starts in Oct. Did you know? While WP:FPL lists only two women's top-division leagues as notable due to its "fully professional" criteria, did you know you can create an article on any player in any league as long as the references meet WP:GNG guidelines? Make sure to tag the new article talk page with: ((WP Women's sport|footy=yes)). Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement? Add them to the Open Tasks page if you'd like and other editors may be able to help. Need tips, assistance, or resources from other WOSO editors? Leave a message on the task force talk page.

Thank you for your continued contributions to articles related to women's football / soccer (WOSO)!

Hello! I am coming to you because I saw you also edited on Josh Bailey's article and seem to be a well knowing and established editor. I am having an issue with an IP user on the Josh Bailey article. They keep on adding Elite Right Winger to the article despite me telling them on their talk page it doesn't follow a Neutral POV. I pointed out that other players who are considered Elite, like Crosby, do not have "Elite Centre" written on their page in that section but they ignore me. They claim the NHL announced it but I cannot find a source. I have already reverted it 3 times and left them a message. This also seems to be their only contribution to Wikipedia.

I was wondering if you had any further suggestions.

No problem. The article creator seems to have created over 100 articles on players in this league, almost all of whom seem non notable to me. Some of them had the national team in the info box but no claim to actual caps nor any reference to support the fact that they had actually played. Feel free to revert any prods I made that you think they are notable, I see you already spotted one. Fenix down (talk) 08:43, 6 January 2018 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hello! I saw your underlinked tag on Talia Chetrit and fixed it. In cases like this, where the article is only a few sentences long, I think it might be more productive to the encyclopedia as a whole to just link two or three things, rather than leave a tag. Just a thought.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 14:20, 17 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Why did you delete the material I contributed on Ethan Bryant's page? Kb3dad (talk) 00:38, 22 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Did you read the answer you received when you asked the same question at #Edits above? See WP:Unsourced, and WP:Verifiability. --David Biddulph (talk) 09:20, 22 April 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

A tag has been placed on Eric Cornel requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Hi there! Noted you had tagged a fair bit of articles as orphans using AWB. I noted that some of the tagged articles are not orphans as per current definition. The new definition is that an orphaned article is an article with no incoming links instead of the old minimum 3 incoming links, see WP:ORPHAN. AWB default setting for orphans might have been set as 3 incoming links. I believe you can set it to one! Thanks! --Xaiver0510 (talk) 08:19, 23 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Appreciate if you can run AWB and de-orphaned those wrongly tagged orphan articles. Thanks --Xaiver0510 (talk) 02:13, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Is there a way to do that with AWB? Joeykai (talk) 03:54, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I believe so. Perhaps re-running the same list again with AWB with the correct orphan settings will de-orphan it automatically --Xaiver0510 (talk) 04:49, 24 May 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect New York Rangers.. Since you had some involvement with the New York Rangers. redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you wish to do so. _signed, Rosguill ^talk 22:07, 8 June 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi, Yes, it is official as of now. He was signed to a 7 year contract worth 81.5 million. I also provided Sportnet link to confirm it. Suden13 (talk) 16:50, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Provide a link that doesn't say "according to Elliotte Friedman". When the Rangers or the NHL announce the transaction it won't say that. Joeykai (talk) 16:51, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Sorry about that. I have noticed that it reads according to Elliotte FRedman after you pointed that out. Suden13 (talk) 16:54, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Found one link from NY Post which does not say according to. Hopefully that is sufficient. Suden13 (talk) 17:04, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you. Joeykai (talk) 17:05, 1 July 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Women's Football / Soccer Task Force News: July 2019

Opening ceremony of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup, Parc de Princes, Paris, June 7, 2019 Hello WOSO editors! What a 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup in France! There has been a lot of activity on tournament- and player-related Wikipedia articles with all of the worldwide coverage of the tournament and its players. Let's keep the momentum going. WOMEN IN SPORTS EDIT-A-THON FOR JULY + AUGUST! WikiProject Women in Red is focusing on Women in Sports during their edit-a-thon for July & August 2019. Get all the info here: Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red/Meetup/126 Sign up and help fill in the gaps within various articles related to women's football / soccer - whether they be players, teams, leagues, historical, administrators, referees, etc. Every little bit helps. Be sure to tag your article talk pages with ((WIR-126)). These edit-a-thons are a great way to work with others to help bridge the gender gaps on Wikipedia. Thanks for your contributions! Did you know... WP:GNG takes precedence over WP:NFOOTY (which only includes the players in two currently active women's leagues)? Often times there is enough media coverage that meets WP:GNG or other notability guidelines. For more information, see WP:WOSO#Notability and be sure to tag the new article talk page with: ((WP Women's sport|footy=yes)) Current and upcoming seasons for top-division leagues Australia: 2019–20 W-League Belgium: 2018–19 Super League Vrouwenvoetbal China PR: 2019 Chinese Women's Super League Colombia: 2019 Colombian Women's Football League Croatia: 2019–20 Croatian Women's First Football League Czech Republic: 2019–20 Czech First Division (women) England: 2019–20 FA WSL Faroe Islands: 2019 1. deild kvinnur France: 2019–20 Division 1 Féminine Germany: 2019–20 Frauen-Bundesliga Iceland: 2019 Úrvalsdeild kvenna (football) Republic of Ireland: 2019 Women's National League Israel: 2019–20 Ligat Nashim Italy: 2019–20 Serie A (women) Korea Republic: 2019 WK League Japan: 2019 Nadeshiko Mexico: 2019-20 Liga MX Femenil Moldova: 2019–20 Moldovan Women Top League Netherlands: 2019–20 Eredivisie (women) New Zealand: 2019 National Women's League Nigeria: 2019 Nigeria Women Premier League Scotland: 2019 Scottish Women's Premier League Spain: 2019-20 First Division (women) Sweden: 2019 Damallsvenskan United States: 2019 National Women's Soccer League season Have some new articles in mind or see some that need improvement?

Hi Joey, just a quick note, please be careful using AWB to automatically add stub tags. I've reverted two additions to pages with around 2kb of prose, significantly more than the start class example at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Assessment. Thanks.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Adam Fox requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

My bad. I didn't realize your page got vandalized. AnUnnamedUser (open talk page) 00:20, 3 August 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

An article you created, Kirill Kozhevnikov (sailor), does not have enough content, sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more content, and citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I'm just curious. Why do people pay you to edit Wikipedia for them? It's free to edit and anyone can do it... why would they pay someone else? Is this a lucrative field lol? SolarFlash (talk) 22:22, 5 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I was only paid between December 2016 and March 2017 to create four articles. Every edit I've made other than that has been free. Here's Vipul's website for why he sponsored Wikipedia editing [6] Joeykai (talk) 22:32, 5 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Ok, thanks. I was just curious. Cheers bro. SolarFlash (talk) 00:09, 6 October 2019 (UTC)Reply[reply]
