GA mentorship help

I would be happy to help you review articles- ppl usually just go straight to WT:GAN ↗, so I think your messages went unnoticed. Any GAN you have in mind at the moment, which you would like to take? DWF91 (talk) 11:06, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

:Thank you, @DoctorWhoFan91! I forgot there was a talk page (somehow), so I just put it in the mentorship section... then it got archived by the bot.
:Again, thank you for responding. In my wait, I actually already started reviewing Keyshia Cole ↗, since I wanted to help with the backlog on one of the oldest GAs. You can find the GA review here ↗.
:Could you help me figure out the best places to work on first when starting a GA, if there are any? I also may need some more tools, as I only have the one to find authorship & WP:EARWIG ↗, but I assume there's more. I also may need to double check with you on some sources so I can make sure they are or are not reliable. Thanks! (again...) Ali Beary (talk!) ↗ 11:47, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
::Yeah, that happens, looking for the best avenue can be a mess sometimes lol.
::Looking at the review- looks correct for all the stuff you have checked for- two images is good, so you shouldn't hold it against them if more can't be found. You don't need to fail the article in 7 days time- as long as you think it can be improved in a reasonable amount of time(I would say a week or two of no/very low activity), you can keep it open.
::There is the external links tool, which is also included with the other two, in the included toolbox. As mentioned in the Wikipedia:Good article nominations/Instructions ↗, the GANReviewTool can help with the technical aspects such as closing the review and all the edits needed while passing/failing/holding. There are also other helpful tools, but I don't use them, so I would have to search before saying which can be used. Many of the sources on Keyshia Cole look fine, but I don't really edit in that topic area, so you would have to ask me based on ones you think are ambiguously reliable- I think you are good enough to know which are reliable and which are not looking at your edits.
::No need to thank me thrice, lol. DWF91 (talk) 12:57, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
:::Yup. I just wanted more images, but it's not needed. The reviewer hasn't made any edits in 5 days... how long should I wait until the review is stale (if the reviewer isn't responding or updating the article)?
:::Thank you, I didn't see that, but very helpful! I don't really edit in the topic area either... I'm more of a history buff than a music nerd (except for musicals), but I'm sure I'll be able to determine using sources I have and prior knowledge.
:::Sorry, just really thankful for you responding, @DoctorWhoFan91! Ali Beary (talk!) ↗ 13:57, 11 March 2025 (UTC)
::::Varies with what you think would be a reasonable time. The usual time spans I have seen are basically pings after some time, and another ping or two after a few days. Might be good go go with a ping after 7 days asking if they are working on it, then 4-5 with a reminder, then another after 2-3 days saying you will fail it in the next day or so. Just throwing out numbers, you should do whatever you think seems reasonable. DWF91 (talk) 15:28, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

John Laurens GA Nomination

Hi Ali Beary, thank you for your edits to the John Laurens ↗ article. After your improvements and a few I made myself recently, I now believe the article is worthy of another GA review. Should you nominate it again I would be happy to do so. Thanks! Compass'''1''''''2''''''8''' (talk) 21:05, 11 May 2025 (UTC) 18:41, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

COI Request for Leena Nair

Hi there Ali Beary,

A little while ago, you kindly made some improvements to the :Leena Nair ↗ article. Since then, others have made further edits to help improve its neutrality. However, the neutrality dispute banner is still in place.

As I have a conflict of interest, I’m not able to remove it myself. I’d really appreciate your thoughts on whether you feel it’s now appropriate to take the banner down. I’ve started a post on the Talk page to help build consensus, and it would be great if you’re able to weigh in.

Thanks so much for your time and for all your help with the article. Occasionalpedestrian (talk) 13:55, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

"Hot Sugar"

Hello. I hope that you are doing well and having a wonderful start to the new year. I am leaving a message about "Hot Sugar ↗" and its status as a single ↗. I do not think that the sources you have added to the ''Love and War'' (Tamar Braxton album) ↗ article (with the following edit ↗) are sufficient enough to support the claim that "Hot Sugar" was a single. Ideally, this should be supported either an official announcement or press release from the record label or from a radio release date (or both).

A majority of the sources that you have used, such as the ''Rap-Up'' article ↗, only briefly refer to "Hot Sugar" as a single in reference to its music video. A music video release is not same as a full single release. These writers may refer to the song as a single, but that is not same as an official confirmation. "Love and War ↗", "The One ↗", and "All the Way Home ↗" each have stronger and more official confirmations of their single statuses, but I could not find anything like that for "Hot Sugar". I have thoroughly looked even through archived sources. Besides that, there is not anything to support that the single was released on October 17, 2013. That is the date the music video was released, which is not the same as a single release. There are plenty of instances of songs being promoted through music videos without them being singles.

On a related note, there is not any evidence to support the purported single cover (which you had added in this edit ↗); I was aware of this single cover while doing the FAC, and I could not find anything outside of the Discogs ↗ entry to support its legitimacy. There is an extended conversation about this subject on the "Hot Sugar" talk page ↗. I would recommend reverting your edit on the ''Love and War'' (Tamar Braxton album) article until you can find stronger evidence to support this claim. Best of luck with everything, and I hope that you have a wonderful weekend! Aoba47 (talk) 20:34, 3 January 2026 (UTC)
