 Comment: Article is extremely overlinked. To assist in the duplicate link cleanup, you can use this tool. — WILDSTARtalk 17:41, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - The notice in the article was placed two months ago and if there were many bare URLs then, it looks like the community fixed most of them. I found only one remaining and fixed it myself, so as of right now there are no more bare URLs in the article. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 18:24, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - Copy edit done. Neutral POV still needs to be ensured. Taeluta (talk) 05:35, 11 August 2021 (UTC)

July

yellow tickY Partly done Removed a good amount of the article, mostly including content that violated WP:NPOV and WP:NOTEVERYTHING. Considering a nomination for WP:AFD. Rosalina2427 (talk) 04:34, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
 Comment: - There is an exact copy of this article at: [2]; not sure which site copied which. I have been around WP for a long time and have never seen a more preposterous candidate for the WP:TNT process. It looks like a direct copy of a high school student's research paper. I suppose Ms. Landmann is eligible for an article because she has been covered by biographers, but this travesty needs to be reduced by 99%. I could help as part of a team effort but it may be an uphill battle if we get reverted by the article's fans. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:28, 8 July 2021 (UTC)
@Doomsdayer520: from the bottom of the page you linked: "Kiddle encyclopedia articles are based on selected content and facts from Wikipedia, edited or rewritten for children." The website seems to have copied their article from here, but they seem to be following Wikipedia's licensing terms judging by the attribution statement at the bottom. Definitely agree that our article needs an extensive rewrite though. Aranya (talk) 02:58, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
 Done, except for an issue with converting references to footnotes. I reduced the article to basic biographical facts, which made it probably 80% shorter. Most of it was about the general history of her religious group and deemed irrelevant for this one person's specific biography. I believe the whole thing was copied from a church publication. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:57, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
  • The Carpentries - tagged for linkrot and formatting issue; excessive detail likely needs a trim or rewrite. Aranya (talk) 19:46, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly doneWILDSTARtalk 02:45, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - trimmed a bit, added an advert tag - the article looks very promotional to me, but as I am not competent in the sphere, I'd prefer someone else take a look at it.Less Unless (talk) 10:56, 4 July 2021 (UTC)
  • Seijuu Sentai Gingaman - This article is among several other articles related to Super Sentai that contains original research and fancruft issues with issues for this dating back to March 2008. I would trim it myself but afraid to have the pitchforks from some fans come after me if the section detailing the characters and arsenal is better suitable for RangerWiki is trimmed down. But in my opinion, it seriously needs to be trimmed for general audiences to understand better. Pahiy (talk) 18:43, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

June

  • DealStreetAsia - needs to be reviewed for neutral point of view Sagekreyol (talk) 03:45, 30 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Diablada, Diablada (Bolivia) - music genre infobox should not be used, as both of them are not a musical genres, but a masked dances, whose music uses other musical genres. Solidest (talk) 17:41, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
    Note: - I wonder if it necessary to have a separate article for Bolivia's version (Diablada (Bolivia)), because that country is mentioned extensively in the original Diablada article. Perhaps a merge? An attempt to transform the specific Bolivia article to a music genre beyond the dance seems half-hearted to me. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 15:32, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
    No, I'm unfortunately not familiar enough with them. I work with infoboxes of musical genres, and a cursory checkup of the sources only found out that the term denotes dance and does not refer to a particular musical style. There's also History of the Diablada tho, which was already nominated to merge once Talk:Diablada#Merge Solidest (talk) 16:33, 25 June 2021 (UTC)
 Comment: with a ping to @Solidest:. Except for minor attempts to include music genre terminology, the two articles at Diablada and Diablada (Bolivia) are nearly identical, while History of the Diablada repeats info from both as well. I have initiated the merger proposal process for at least two of them at Talk:Diablada#Merger proposal. If nobody responds for a few weeks I can then do the merge myself, but if anyone resists we may need tough discussions on why duplicate info is inefficient. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:49, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
  • Oxford English Dictionary - Many citations appear broken (e.g. [18]:xx). These may be referring to a specific page of the cited resource, and should be moved to into the citation as per WP:CITE. Also, any of the revisions of the OED mentioned in the text contain question marks (e.g. ?th impression). I don't have easy access to the find the correct revision numbers. aaPle (talk) 03:04, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Insufficient justification - Needs slight adjustment in the tone of the article. It was written as if it was a school assignment. AbhigyaDahal (talk) 08:55, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Language interoperability - about programming language interoperability. An important concept with a low quality article. At least the grammar needs to be fixed, but it would be good to rewrite the entire thing. The section about VMs seems unrelated to me. Akeosnhaoe (talk) 06:14, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Aaron Gryder - article about the champion jockey reads mostly like a story (especially the opening paragraphs) with insufficient references. Submitting here with regards to story tone. JRHorse (talk) 21:40, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
 Done - Fixed story-like language and added sources. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 18:57, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
  • Drako Motors - Manufacturer of electric sports cars. Reads entirely as an advertisement, and I feel that a lot of this article is impressive-sounding statistics that don't really mean anything, but I don't know anything about cars. Needs copyediting, and citations need re-formatting to have further information. Waxworker (talk) 08:40, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Nickelodeon Toys - Toys manufactured by kids television network Nickelodeon. Lots of original research, I've already removed some unreliable sources like Pininterest and Reddit. Waxworker (talk) 15:21, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Listia - Online auction marketplace that uses credits instead of money. Lots of unreliable/primary refs and original research, I've already removed a bunch of links to individual auctions for Amazon gift cards. Waxworker (talk) 13:37, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Original research has been removed, still has a lot of primary refs though. HoneycrispApples (talk) 21:53, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

May

NB: Partial strike. Requested template was added to the multiple issues template in 2017. — WILDSTARtalk 15:23, 13 June 2021 (UTC)
  • Mega Man Maverick Hunter X - Needs expansion on the Plot and Gameplay headings, alongside some sentence rewrites. Shadowboxer2005 (talk) 02:03, 26 May 2021 (UTC)
  • SpaceX Starship - An article about in-development space rocket. Really long with no consistency, many grammartical errors and have a lot of unnesscesary details. It should be paid more attention as it have 20k+ view per day. DrifAssault (talk) 07:02, 9 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Nintendo Gamer - Defunct British gamaing magazine dedicated to Nintendo games and hardware. Original research and fancruft issues, I've already removed sections dedicated to recurring jokes and a table of the highest scoring games, but the 'sections/features' section still needs trimming. Waxworker (talk) 15:54, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
    yellow tickY Partly done: trimmed and condensed a large portion of that section, reducing list entries to one or two sentences each; also cleaned up refs. Aranya (talk) 03:45, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Amiga Power - Defunct 90's British gaming magazine dedicated to the Amiga line of computers. Lots of original research, promotional tone issues, and a lot of fancruft, with a good chunk of the article focusing on recurring jokes in the magazine. Waxworker (talk) 15:43, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
    yellow tickY Partly done - Fixed most of the tone issues and removed some uncited cruft. Still needs more citations and less original research.

April

yellow tickY Partly done Removed promotional content for the most part, though the references are still press releases. AdoTang (talk) 15:27, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Bontang – Just undergo some restructuring and rewriting, need cleanup (idk what to cleanup tho but it looks a bit messy), thanks. Nyanardsan (talk) 22:21, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Fixed spelling and grammar issues throughout the article. Bradster763 (talk) 17:11, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Dennis the Menace (U.S. comics) - An American comic strip about a mischievous boy named Dennis, not to be confused with a similar British strip of the same name. Fancruft and tone issues, as well as reliance on primary sources - a good chunk of the references on the article are the comic itself or unsuitable refs such as IMDB or the Grand Comics Database, which I'm not sure of the reliability of. I've already removed some particuilarly inappropriate refs such as links to search results on Bing. Waxworker (talk) 16:57, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Schrödinger's cat in popular culture - Examples of the thought experiment Schrödinger's cat in pop culture. Excessive pop culture trivia that is uncited or cites itself, and there are inappropriate sources like Amazon and Facebook. I already removed an inappropriate section titled "merchandise", as it consisted of a bunch of links to buy shirts with Schrödinger's cat on them on sites like ThinkGeek. Waxworker (talk) 14:08, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
 Comment: - How would everyone here feel about nominating this article for deletion? It breaks a lot of rules on indiscriminate fan trivia and unreliable sources. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:46, 3 July 2021 (UTC)
The above suggestion has not attracted any support so it's off the table. The article seems to have some semi-regular editors who add things periodically, so cleaning it up might work better in the form of discussions with them at the article's talk page. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 20:44, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
  • Jampack - "Jampack Demos & Videos Listed" is a strangely-formatted list that's difficult to read. Also, there are a few issues in the lead, I think. AdoTang (talk) 03:20, 16 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Johnson_&_Johnson#Coronavirus_(COVID-19) - This section just sloppy. Tense errors like thinking September 2020's in the future. Lots of small paragraphs that were added when they were fresh. Poor transitions. In short, a lot of additions as the news came out, but it really needs to be thought through, molded into sensible paragraphs—stuff like that. Maybe it can just be stripped down since there's a full article about this? Thmazing (talk) 07:08, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Trimmed and organized section. ThinkHat (talk) 14:42, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Gals Panic - A Japanese series of erotic games predominately released for arcades. Massive amounts of uncited gamecruft - article is insanely long for what it is. Waxworker (talk) 22:52, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Hadas Thier - American socialist and book author. I thought about AfD, but she may be notable. The article definitely needs a cleanup. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 06:05, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Checked the publications and removed less important ones, checked book reviews and removed promo citations from the publisher. -- Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:55, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
  • Fucoidan — this page needs quite a lot of copyediting Viséan (talk) 12:41, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
  •  Comment: Hi Viséan: The article has received some attention, on 3 April 2021‎ (UTC) from ThinkHat, which was denoted with an edit summary stating "Clean up" (diff). Did this address your concerns? North America1000 15:08, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

March

yellow tickY Partly done cleaned up the "Bibliography" section. Much more cleanup is needed. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 20:03, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Corrected some spelling and grammar issues. Bradster763 (talk) 17:29, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
  • Gulfstream Park - Copy editing, additional citations, undue weight. More on talk page. JRHorse (talk) 12:49, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
     Comment: Way too many line breaks as per MOS:PARA. Needs a lot of attention. Paragraphs need to be combined and the WP:TOC should be subsection-ified. I'll try but it's going to need the attention of a better editor. Catalyzzt (talk) 14:10, 16 March 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done created some paragraphs and performed a basic cleanup. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 13:15, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

February

  • Manuel Fal Conde - This article has multiple issues, it has a non-academic writing style, the chronology of this article is hard to follow, there are several grammatical or spelling errors. I think this article was translated from Spanish by a non-native speaker of English, as several definite articles are missing. Xwedodah (talk) 03:52, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done checked the "External links" section and removed some sources. It is strange that the Spanish version of the article is 10 times shorter than the English one. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 16:30, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
  • Thecho - Some sections are like lists. They need to be converted into the prose. Further, the article is unreferenced and citations should be added. –Kammilltalk⟩ 08:51, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
  • Marcelo Salas - this is an article about a very important footballer, but it is poorly written, and it seems like many parts were translated from Spanish literally. The intro seems to be too long and has too much information, some of it of dubious importance.--Celtic1985 (talk) 14:59, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
  • List of New York City Ballet dancers - poorly referenced, horrible citation style, many links redirects back to the article itself. Corachow (talk) 23:47, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Mostly fixed {{citation style}} (see diff), but didn't add any sources and article is still terrible. 🐈 cAtte_ · talk · contributions · 07:15, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
  • Jan Metternich - German singer. Looks like WP:TOOSOON, but I may be wrong. Too many details. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:26, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
  • Jasmine Dotiwala - British media executive. Article strays wildly from areas where the subject may be regarded as notable. Content is largely promotional & poorly structured. Stroness (talk) 19:41, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done trimmed down promotion, added citation requests. A lot more cleanup is needed. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 18:37, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done cleaned up 'early life' and rolled education into it. Stroness (talk) 19:13, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done shortened lead section. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 20:10, 12 February 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - Kamil Ali Bhat (talk) 19:04, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Put most of the lead in a separate section. Still needs a fair bit of copyediting and cleanup. --Awker22 (talk) 19:56, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
  • List of Tom and Jerry characters - List of characters in the cartoon Tom and Jerry. Massive amount of uncited fancruft and outright false information, such as giving names to unnamed characters and listing brief visual gags as a character in of themselves, as well as odd non-sequitur statements such as "There is some debate as to whether this is the genuine Clint Clobber as the original Clint would never be an outright animal abuser; he was just a put-upon grouch". A lot of the false information given seems to also be on the Tom & Jerry fandom wiki. Waxworker (talk) 07:42, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
  • Note: Not all of it may be false information. There are nicknames to almost all the characters in the Tom and Jerry universe, so it's possible someone heard about these nicknames and put them in the page. So I would keep the normally unnamed characters in, but remove the breif visual gag characters as you said. Phantasm99 (talk) 18:50, 1 February 2021 (UTC)

January

yellow tickY Partly done Removed some trivia and extra quotes. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 21:04, 31 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Stefano Fantoni - Italian theoretical physicist. Multiple issues highlighted with tags. Needs to be shortened at least by 50%. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 17:39, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done cleaned up everything related to the refs. Still needs to be substantially shortened. Not my field of expertise. Less Unless (talk) 20:26, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done shortened lead section a bit. The article needs expert attention to evaluate scientific content. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 17:31, 29 January 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - Fixed up punctuation issues and removed some archaic phrases and a red link. Don't know what to do with the lists, though. Phantasm99 (talk) 14:54, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Lee Labrada - Cuban bodybuilder. Too commercial, and has no references. Will also need to be split into multiple sections since it is too hard to read. May also include original research. -- Phantasm99 (talk)
     Done I found a source and reduced the article to what I could reference to that source, so it is now BLP-compliant and no longer advert-like. PJvanMill)talk( 16:15, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
  • Ceyhun Yılmaz - a Turkish comedian, actor, radioman and TV presenter - needs general clean up and links removed to non-existent pages --Miriumjenkins (talk) 14:22, 15 January 2021 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done general clean up -- [[MarialeegRVT (talk) 06:06, 25 January 2021 (UTC)]]
 Done thank to many users. Less Unless (talk) 05:46, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

2020 posts

December

  • Fighter Interception Unit - Blocky unsourced mess SnazzyInfinity (chat?what I've done) 05:21, 29 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Victor Mbarika - an American professor. Flagged for COI. --Opeinioluwa101 (talk)
  • Joanne Wilson - US venture investor. It is a properly stated WP:COI contribution. Here is an opinion from DGG: "I can't help thinking that the article is considerably excessive in view of the accomplishments. Perhaps it could be fixed by not including mere listings as awards, (and converting the table into a list--because of accessability problems tables as deprecated unless necessary), i moving those items in the bibliography that discuss her into references in the usual format, and possible decreasing the rather extreme number of references, too many of which are barely disguised PR, and from sources which are mainly devoted to publishing press releases" (expressed here). -- --Bbarmadillo (talk) 18:51, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
  • List of first openly LGBT politicians in the United States — tons and tons of unreferenced claims open to lawsuits. Needs fixing ASAP. DemonDays64 (talk) 09:58, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
  • LGBT movements in the United States - issues with tone, organization of sections, multiple sections need to be condensed WhirlWithoutEnd (talk) 06:52, 7 December 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - Misc fixes. — WILDSTARtalk 17:24, 13 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Animal Rights National Conference - I removed some of the more promotional areas, but could use another editor's review. Animal Rights Hall of Fame section I wasn't sure if that should be removed. Once cleaned up, I think the Advert. tag could be removed. Rievebug (talk) 19:38, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done: Removed the Advert tag. The article does not have a promotional tone at this time. North America1000 11:00, 27 January 2021 (UTC)

November

Red XN I do not think this article can be saved, and consequently I've (re-)nominated it for deletion. PJvanMill)talk( 15:26, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
Result: kept. Sources were found. PJvanMill)talk( 18:29, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
in my experience, all pages for genuine European universities with a significant history can be rescued fairly easily. Other areas can be much harder to find sources. DGG ( talk ) 21:14, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - Style/layout fixes. — WILDSTARtalk 16:32, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Picture This (film) – stylistic cleanup overall needed, excessively long plot, inadequate amounts of sources, and the "critical reception" section is incomplete. Rosalina2427 (talk) 17:35, 2 November 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done - Condensed plot Jennablurrs7575 (talk) 20:49, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

October

  • Secretlab - gaming furniture manufacturer. The style of the article is promotional. It also contains a lot of trivial details. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 18:47, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Trimmed some promotional. Partnerships section still too long. ThinkHat (talk) 17:16, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
 Comment:. Also the types of chairs, reception, and awards. I may list this for deletion as basically advertising. DGG ( talk ) 21:45, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
Not done the article was deleted. Less Unless (talk) 19:25, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
Hey Less Unless - this article was recreated earlier this month and tagged for similar issues, so I'm going reopen it for now. Aranya (talk) 04:54, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

  • Lost Tribe – the introduction and discography need major fixing Lacon432 (talk) 21:07, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
  • Alexandra Ansanelli - American ballet dancer. Excessively detailed, poorly sourced and unclear citation style. I'll work on the contents at some point. Corachow (talk) 15:28, 3 October 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done Trimmed some of the excessive detail. Removed blank refs. Needs a rewrite in the career section. ThinkHat (talk) 22:06, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

September

  • Eurocon seems to be WP:INDISCRIMINATE—it lists all awardees at all award events in tables. The content about the awards themselves is relatively small. —I'llbeyourbeach (talk) 06:20, 24 September 2020 (UTC)
  • Trans-Karakoram Tract - A region administered by China. It has a lot of mistakes and factual errors and is in need of more citations and generally more reliable citations. Taimoorahmed11 (talk) 12:37, 13 September 2020 (UTC)
 Comment: Struck part of the above, because this project no longer accepts requests for the addition of citations. North America1000 23:46, 11 January 2021 (UTC)
  • Tschaikovsky Pas de Deux - 1960 ballet. Some sources are dead, and some content seems to be irrelevant. I'll work on the "notable performers" section at some point, maybe other parts of the article too. And if you're wondering the spelling of the title is intentional. Corachow (talk) 15:15, 12 September 2020 (UTC)
 Done replaced dead links, added more refs. Looks ok for now. Less Unless (talk) 05:39, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

August

Strawberryfire and AussieWikiDan: this project generally does not add more sources to articles. I've struck that part of both of your requests. Kind regards from PJvanMill)talk( 21:49, 28 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Prophethood (Ahmadiyya) - MOS capitalising, requires more citations and possible removal of content, original research issue. AussieWikiDan (talk) 13:09, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
  • History of Dubai - Opening paragraph about UAE instead. Poor use of citations.AussieWikiDan (talk) 13:07, 25 August 2020 (UTC)
  • BT Sport#Programming - there are needlessly long lists of presenters on here. It's just lines and lines of names, like a register! Please either remove most names, create a new article listing the presenters or put them into a table. Thanks! Mrmariomaster (talk) 20:37, 19 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Zhou Shen - Please fix grammar and prose in this article if necessary. Some sentences do not have citations, so maybe add "citations needed" if necessary. Article may be praising the living person at times, instead of maintaining neutral point of view. I've done some edits and will continue to do so but would like some help. Thanks! GhostHuang'sFan (talk) 07:28, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
  • Shooting and crying - poorly written, needs a grammatical and syntactical cleanup. Sk96sk (talk) 13:34, 13 August 2020 (UTC)
yellow tickY Partly done fixed footnotes, minor grammar changes Seyasoya (talk) 6:25, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
