:I've played the demo of this one and I think the ''Digitally Downloaded'' and ''Siliconera'' reviews capture my feelings. It's shamelessly unoriginal and conceptually it shouldn't work, but the gameplay actually does work, it's fun but don't go in expecting brilliance. ~ A412 talk! 19:36, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Belz factory outlet mall (Allen, Texas) Article to Draft.

Hello, excuse me i’d like to discuss the issue you raised with the Belz Factory Outlet Mall (Allen, Texas) page. I know it was clean, but I mentioned it in the forum, and you didn't reply. So, I said I created the page, and if there's a problem, you write or edit it yourself. The page was clean and well-sourced; please explain what's wrong.

Thank you for your reply. Louloureagan9 (talk) 16:41, 19 May 2026 (UTC)

:Hey, welcome to Wikipedia. The issue is that the page was ''not'' well sourced by our standards. The page is sourced to Wikimedia Commons ↗ and Wikimapia ↗, which are both user-generated sources ↗. Our policies require that information is cited to reliable sources ↗, which do not include user-generated ones. ~ A412 talk! 16:51, 19 May 2026 (UTC)
::Here are a couple better sources to get you started: https://www.dallasobserver.com/news/the-ultimate-dirt-mall-inside-what-remains-of-the-old-belz-factory-outlet-in-allen-7127811/ ↗ https://www.politico.com/magazine/gallery/2013/11/closed-for-business-000004/?slide=4 ↗. Feel free to hit "Submit for Review" on your draft once you've added in some better sources. ~ A412 talk! 16:56, 19 May 2026 (UTC)

You may be eligible to vote in the U4C election

<section begin="announcement-content" />
I am contacting you because you previously voted in elections related to the Universal Code of Conduct Coordinating Committee (U4C) ↗. You may be eligible to vote in the current U4C election, which is open now and closes on 2 June 2026. You can find out more about the candidates and the election on the election page on Meta ↗, and from there you can access the vote itself. Your participation in these elections is important to the governance of Wikimedia communities, and your time spent learning about the candidates and voting is appreciated.

Lithium-ion battery components ↗ review and link

Thanks for reviewing the article! I noticed that in this ↗ edit, you linked to Lithium-ion battery ↗ in the lede of the Lithium-ion battery components ↗ article. I had intentionally not done this, since the lede of the components article is transcluded in the 'parent', and so now there is a circular link in the Components ↗ section of the parent. I was wondering, was you edit done with this in mind? I agree the link would be useful to have in the child, but I don't know how to prevent it from showing in the parent. Thanks, CommonsKiwi (talk) 13:54, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

:Oh, interesting. I don't have a good solution for that situation. Feel free to revert. ~ A412 talk! 14:00, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
::I'll try to use one of those 'main article' or 'see also' templates that shows up above the lede. Maybe that won't show up. CommonsKiwi (talk) 14:04, 9 June 2026 (UTC)
:::Nevermind, I should be able to fix this using inclusion control ↗. Sorry for the bother! Cheers, CommonsKiwi (talk) 14:07, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

Review of Loop (statement) ↗

Dear A.
I got notified that you reviewed the article Loop (statement) ↗ but I have a hard time seeing what changed.
To sate my curiosity, I thought I'd ask what it meant.
Thank you in advance. — xo '''Ergur''' (talk) 13:41, 10 June 2026 (UTC)

:New pages are reviewed by New Pages Patrol ↗, this review allows them to be indexed in search engines. Typically, new page patrollers check for major content issues; if there are no major issues articles will be reviewed without further comment. Good job on the article! ~ A412 talk! 15:09, 10 June 2026 (UTC)
::Thank you for the answer, thank you for the compliment, and thank you for the service. — xo '''Ergur''' (talk) 07:23, 14 June 2026 (UTC)

Sourcing on Mount Zas

Greetings A, many thanks for reviewing Mount Zas ↗ earlier this week.

Since your initial review, I’ve attempted to improve the reliability of the sourcing. (Namely, more reputable citations for the elevation, and mythology section).

If you have time, would you be able to assess whether the sources now meet Wikipedia's reliability guidelines, or if more work is needed? The article is still a stub; I have asked Wikiproject Greece if they can help expand, as it is not my area of expertise.

Kind regards, Sy234sn (talk) 11:55, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

:Hm, we're still using some user-generated ↗ (''Peakbagger'') and blog ↗ (''Earth Trekkers'') sources. ~ A412 talk! 15:14, 16 June 2026 (UTC)
::Acknowledged, will keep working on it. Thank you for taking a look Sy234sn (talk) 19:01, 17 June 2026 (UTC)

A412/The Artisan of Glimmith ↗ moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to A412/The Artisan of Glimmith ↗. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because '''it is blank'''.
I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page ↗.
When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. jolielover♥talk 08:47, 28 June 2026 (UTC)

:Note that I've renamed it Draft:The Artisan of Glimmith ↗. I think you accidentally published this to mainspace rather than a subpage. jolielover♥talk 08:50, 28 June 2026 (UTC)

Tag for 2025 Black British Theatre Awards

May I disagree with the new box on this page, asking for more secondary/tertiary sources? I have modelled this page (and the ones of the previous BBTA award years) on other British Awards, like the Olivier Awards ↗ and Whatsonstage Awards ↗, where yearly awards are presented very similarly. As they're a list of awards nominees and winners no secondary nor tertiary sources are provided for either of them. Musicalge3k5 (talk) 18:52, 4 July 2026 (UTC)

:Just to add to my point, other pages like the Academy Award for Best Director ↗, just to pick one of the Oscar categories, also references mainly on their website, listing nominees and winners as their primary source. Musicalge3k5 (talk) 18:55, 4 July 2026 (UTC)
::Fair enough. ~ A412 talk! 19:18, 4 July 2026 (UTC)
