Disambiguation link notification for July 20



Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Ebertfest: Roger Ebert's Film Festival ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Albert Parker ↗. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.</small>

Bullying on the Nina Paley Article



You have jumped to reverting edits that you have no basis to revert and made this article about you bullying other . Nina Paley has done no work as a gender critical feminist. None. She is a trans exclusionary radical feminist. She discussed that in the TERFING . Her only discussion of gender are that she says transgender people are only the biological sex and not the gender they identify as. Her sources say that OUTRIGHT! She can call herself whatever she chooses. the same way she claims that transgender can but her identity is as a TERF and nothing more. 104.34.202.79 ↗ (talk) 19:25, 11 August 2018 (UTC)

WP:ALUMNI ↗ does not require material in embedded lists to have an article



In a recent edit summary ↗, you wrote that "notability requires a WP article, per WP:ALUMNI." I just wanted to let you know that the advice article you cited does not actually say that and material included in embedded lists does not have to meet our standards for notability. Specifically, our current guideline ↗ says: "Inclusion in '''lists contained within articles''' should be determined by WP:SOURCELIST ↗, in that the entries must have the same importance to the subject as would be required for the entry to be included in the text of the article according to Wikipedia policies and guidelines (including Wikipedia:Trivia sections ↗)."

The specific edit you made is still totally fine as the material was also unsourced and that is almost always an acceptable reason to delete material so no worries about having to go back to that article and make changes or revert your edit! This is just a friendly note about a policy that has been commonly understood differently by some editors (and I think it was slightly changed at some point to try to make it more clear).

Love for Sale FAC



Hi. I saw your name in my edit watchlist (''Gaucho'') and wanted to ask if you could comment on or review my FAC ↗ for Love for Sale (Bilal album) ↗. It is a not a long article, but the review has become a sprawling mess with ambiguous or reluctant takes on the sourcing in particular, and no new comments have been made in a week or so. So any thoughts would be welcome. Thank you. isento (talk) 20:22, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi NOLA1982, I just wanted to let you know that I have <span class="plainlinks">[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3ANOLA1982 added]</span> the "{{mono|autopatrolled}}" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers ↗. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled ↗. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help).

Matthew Shepard Article Sourcing



Hey, just want to explain my motivation for those citation edits on the Matthew Shepard ↗ article. The author of that source is a notable anti-LGBT journalist, so I worry that it might have excessive bias. Would it work better if I found another source with the same information? ChekhovsGunman (talk) 18:19, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

:When I undid your @ChekhovsGunman original edits, it was based on comparing your edit summary with the article content and edit history. At that time, I skimmed ''The Guardian'' article but had not read the entire work. And I had no previous knowledge about the author of ''The Guardian'' piece. Since then, I have read both. I don't claim to be an expert on this topic, but I did once made a public presentation about it, which required a fair amount of research. In my humble opinion, ''The Guardian'' article is not an opinion piece and the facts presented mesh with almost everything I have read about the case. The author appears to be controversial because of comments she has made about transgender issues in general and because she did not disagree with conclusions in the controversial book ''The Book of Matt'' by Jimenez. The Shepard article has a section about that book, with refs in support of both sides of the controversy. If you want to add additional references to support the claims, that would fit with the WP policy of Wikipedia:Neutral point of view ↗.
:That said, I try to stay out of discussions about WP controversies. If you want other opinions about this particular article, you should post your query to the Shepard article talk page ↗. Thanks. NOLA1982 (talk) 02:52, 12 March 2023 (UTC)

Hello again and Judith Hill


Hi. I just deleted "harp" from the "instruments" field on Judith Hill -- I can't find a reference. (I have been following her since Michael Jackson died and have never seen her with a harp!) Please revert if I am mistaken. Thanks and hope you are well! Julie JSFarman (talk) 18:33, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

:Thank you, Julie. I don't have a problem with your edit. I don't claim to be an expert on Hill, but harp does seem a bit far-fetched. If you can't find a ref, I believe you. Be well! NOLA1982 (talk) 21:31, 15 February 2024 (UTC)

PJ Hirabayashi


hi NOLA1982, I see you've deleted the '''Further Reading''' section for PJ Hirabayashi because the book listed is used as a source for citations. The article in the book has much much more than the wiki page on this musician and is an excellent source for finding out more. It does also verify much of the info in the page that was not cited. Please return the Further Reading section. I don't want to undo what you have done, but rather want to point interested persons to an excellent source on Hirabayashi. Thank you, Surefirebrand
: Greetings, Surefirebrand. Thank you for discussing rather than reverting on this topic. I don't necessarily agree with you in this case, because the WP:Further reading ↗ documentation states "In articles with very many footnotes, it may not be obvious which references are suitable for further reading, and such entries may be selectively duplicated in Further reading". At this time, the PJ article has only 11 citations and the book is ref number 1. But I won't edit war with you over this, so feel free to undo my prior actions if you wish. Thanks. NOLA1982 (talk) 17:00, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
::IMHO, what would be terrific for the quality of the article is for you to add inline refs from the book to the claims in the article that are not currently supported with a WP:RS ↗. NOLA1982 (talk) 17:04, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

Request for Guidance on Creating an Article



Hi NOLA,

I’m a professional bluegrass musician with a body of work that includes a forthcoming album release (featuring several notable musicians who have extant articles), collaborations with established artists, and media coverage in various outlets. I believe I meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines and would like to request the creation of a Wikipedia page to document my career thus far. Any help or suggestions you could provide would be greatly appreciated!
Here are some reliable sources that cover my work:

::Hi Max. I can't tell if you are asking me to write the article about you, but if so, I'm going to have to say no. I already have a long To-Do list, but more importantly, these days I find myself doing more clean-up tasks rather than creating new content.

::But I think if you go to the Articles for Creation ↗ page, it will guide you through the process. Also, creating a page about yourself is a clear conflict of interest, so I'd advise you not to try to do that. Best wishes to you on this project! NOLA1982 (talk) 18:45, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Hey, do you know a lot about Sweet Honey in the Rock? cuz I do really well, I have their 1993 "We Who Believe In Freedom" Book, and their 1999 songbook, and I wonder if anyone else out there can make a wiki for 2 former sweet honey in the rock singers Evelyn Maria Harris and Ingrid Ellis, cuz Evelyn (born: Sep 26, 1950) is a pretty popular former sweet honey singer, and Ingrid Ellis (March 6, 1948 - May 2, 1981) is apparently the first member of sweet honey to be deceased.

Hi, could you please review Draft Signal Post ↗ and move it to mainspace if it meets the requirements? Thank you. Hikemountain (talk) 17:38, 16 May 2026 (UTC)
: Greetings, Hikemountain. I see that you are new around here, so welcome to Wikipedia! I'm not sure how you found my Talk page for your request, because this is an area of the encyclopedia that I am almost never involved with. I suggest that you pose your question to the Wikipedia:Teahouse ↗, which is a great place for "newbies" to ask all sorts of questions. All best. NOLA1982 (talk) 18:20, 16 May 2026 (UTC)

Why did you revert my edit?



https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Verifiability#Self-published_or_questionable_sources_as_sources_on_themselves

According to this, social media is an acceptable source for subjects to talk about themselves. Is an artist talking about their influences on social media not considered acceptable under this rule? ChaosAkita (talk) 20:54, 4 June 2026 (UTC)

: User:ChaosAkita: I originally reverted your addition based on WP:RSPIG ↗, but I had not reviewed the exceptions listed there, so I undid my undo. But another editor undid my edit, based on different reasoning. I try to steer clear of wiki drama, so I'm done with this topic. Thanks. NOLA1982 (talk) 01:36, 5 June 2026 (UTC)
