Creation spree: minor-planet object articles

Hi Sadenar40000, mass creation of minor planet stub articles should be avoided (also see WP:NASTRO and WP:DWMP). Per my count, you've created the following articles in the last few days [update: revised articles in boldface]:

Please stop creating new articles. This creates a huge backlog for others like me (fixing adding templates, categories, talkpages and the like). Instead, I ask you to start working on the ones you have already created. There are plenty of articles about trans-Neptunian objects that serve you as a template (I see you adopted some basic structure from them, which is good, but you also left out a lot of the basic components). I have revised the first article in the above list – which hopefully will serve you as a more complete "start"-level example. Currently, all articles are candidates to be tagged with {{Notability}} if they are not expanded. Rfassbind – talk 16:29, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Understood, sorry for the bother.Sadenar40000 (talk) 18:14, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I've currently worked on (523687) 2014 DF143, but I ran into some issues with the numbering and naming section, where I couldn't find how you got this: "numbered by the Minor Planet Center on 9 June 2017 and received the number 495603 in the minor planet catalog (M.P.C. 105261)." from the Archive. It must be somewhat obvious but I just couldn't find out, so I decided to leave the entire part out of the edit.Sadenar40000 (talk) 19:58, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lastly, I don't quite get the spirit of the noticability guideline on minor planets/asteroids, it seems to say that even if those articles get enough work done on them, they would still be unnoticable, this is just my interpretation of it though Sadenar40000 (talk) 20:11, 29 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sadenar40000, typically articles are created when there is a study about the object (or anything that mentions it), so doing an extensive search on google is mandatory. Systematic creation of minor planet articles only referenced in databases should be avoided, which includes mass creation of articles based on red links found on the list of possible dwarf planets (historically, there were issues with mass creation of minor planet articles, creating a huge backlog; and the guidelines reflect the pain this has caused in the past). It's OK to find your own words and make your own descriptions from publications you found online about the object. Note: revised articles (above) are now listed in boldface to keep track of the current status. Rfassbind – talk 12:20, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Understood, I'll fix the mess I've created and once that is done, redirect my time to more constructive articles, once again, sorry for the inconvenience caused. I initially started doing this because I saw quite a few TNOs articles and found it weird a lot of TNO articles in the french wiki didn't have their counterpart in the english one, now I know the reason for this and will refrain from adding more.Sadenar40000 (talk) 13:48, 30 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Just to be clear. No one said "mess"; the term I used was "backlog". It could have resulted in a "huge backlog" if all the redlinks on list of possible dwarf planets § Likeliest dwarf planets were turned into underdeveloped stub articles. That's why I posted early on, in order to prevent you from too much frustration. This is not the first time a warned wikipedians from creating too many/unsufficiently source articles. Unfortunately, people feel offended nevertheless, and in some way or the other, express their frustration and intention to move on towards other areas. That's why this post here was my last one that tries to alert others of potential article over-creation. From now on I'll just skip this part. I wish you all the best and, as you mentioned, good luck spending your time on more constructive articles. Rfassbind – talk 00:05, 3 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2021 started

Hello,
WikiProject India Tag & Assess 2021 has started. The India WikiProject has a backlog of around 10,000 unassessed articles, built up over the last few years. The time has come for comprehensive housekeeping and that's what this drive is all about. The drive will run from 1 September 2021 to 30 September 2021.

We request you to participate in the assessment drive. Learn more about the event here, learn assessment process and rewards details. Please add your name as a participant here.

Feel free to discuss this on the event talk page or at WikiProject India noticeboard.

You received this message, because you participated in earlier iteration of the assessment drive, or we felt that you may be interested to participate. --Titodutta (talk) 11:33, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for joining. I invited you as I found your edits here which are actually part of the drive. You may consider using Rater script, which makes rating a lot easier. Let me know if it helps or if you have question(s). --Titodutta (talk) 11:38, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Assessing military history articles

I see that you recently assessed two Military history articles, HMS Strenuous and HMS Sturdy. The Wikiproject has a Manual of Style and guidance on assessment, including information on what makes a B-class article. I suggest having a look at these and then taking a look at the articles, particularly in light of the B-class criteria. If you have any questions, I have always found the lead coordinator Peacemaker67 and the rest of leadership team of the Wikiproject always extremely helpful. simongraham (talk) 03:53, 27 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment of Finnish I Corps (Continuation War)

Hi, and thanks for your assessment of Finnish I Corps (Continuation War). Would you be able to provide some more detailed feedback, preferably in terms of the MILHIST B-class criteria? I would have expected it to cover at least B1 and B3–5. –Ljleppan (talk) 13:12, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Taking a look at your contributions, it seems you took a total of 42 seconds to 1) find and 2) rate the article, based on the time from the previous rating to this rating. I'm relatively new to Wikipedia, but I'm not sure how you could have made a meaningful assessment of the article state in that time? I see that others have already commented on your ratings in relation to MILHIST articles. –Ljleppan (talk) 13:31, 13 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Project assessment

Hi, Sadenar40000, I've noticed from your long edit history that you primarily do assessments on article talk pages. I've started doing this within the past month or so and have added it on my user page as another project, probably the last thing to do on Wikipedia. Is there a project, a task force, or some group of editors that are involved with trying to clear this massive backlog? --WikiCleanerMan (talk) 01:34, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is no existing overarching structure for assessment as far as I know, I only use the Unassessed Articles category to find what needs to be done. If any large initiatives arise they are often from specific WikiProjects working on their own backlogs like WikiProject India currently emptying their project's importance assessment backlog.

HMS Saint Eustatius

Hi, thanks for rating HMS Saint Eustatius. Could you expand on what's missing in referencing and coverage so that it might be improved? Thanks, Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 21:14, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for asking questions, I'm of the opinion that while your 5 sources appear to be reputable and both sections of the article are correctly referenced, that their number being too low is mostly the issue here. The article itself is also somewhat short, even for an individual ship's article, which is why I felt it failed B1. If you feel like I've made a serious error and would like a second pair of eyes on it, feel free to submit it to requests for assessment on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Assessment page.Sadenar40000 (talk) 21:48, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think you've made an error, the ship just didn't do anything else! It was a short-lived vessel which saw no recorded action in her time as a Royal Navy ship, and so there's simply nothing else to put nor many sources that discuss her. Difficult! Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 22:09, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'll reassess her as B then, if her service was that uneventful, apologies for the trouble. Sadenar40000 (talk) 22:11, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No trouble at all, thanks very much for the swift reply. I promise not all my articles are as boring! Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 22:23, 14 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Typhoon Rusa was the most powerful typhoon to strike South Korea in 43 years. It was the 21st JTWC tropical depression, the 15th named storm, and the 10th typhoon of the 2002 Pacific typhoon season. It developed on August 22 from the monsoon trough in the northwestern Pacific Ocean, well to the southeast of Japan. For several days, Rusa moved to the northwest, eventually intensifying into a powerful typhoon. On August 26, the storm moved across the Amami Islands of Japan, where Rusa left 20,000 people without power and caused two fatalities. Across Japan, the typhoon dropped torrential rainfall peaking at 902 mm (35.5 in) in Tokushima Prefecture.

en:Bhagavata Mela

Please be bold and help translate this article!

Bhagavata Mela is a classical Indian dance that is performed in Tamil Nadu, particularly the Thanjavur area. It is choreographed as an annual Vaishnavism tradition in Melattur and nearby regions, and celebrated as a dance-drama performance art. The dance art has roots in a historic migration of practitioners of Kuchipudi, another Indian classical dance art, from Andhra Pradesh to the kingdom of Tanjavur.

The term Bhagavata, state Brandon and Banham, refers to the Hindu text Bhagavata Purana. Mela is a Sanskrit word that means "gathering, meeting of a group" and connotes a folk festival. The traditional Bhagavata Mela performance acts out the legends of Hinduism, set to the Carnatic style music.

Please be bold and help translate this article!

Timurid architecture was an important stage in the architectural history of Iran and Central Asia during the late 14th and 15th centuries. The Timurid Empire (1370–1507), founded by Timur (d. 1405) and conquering most of this region, oversaw a cultural renaissance. In architecture, the Timurid dynasty patronized the construction of palaces, mausoleums, and religious monuments across the region. Their architecture is distinguished by its grand scale, luxurious decoration in tilework, and sophisticated geometric vaulting. This architectural style, along with other aspects of Timurid art, spread across the empire and subsequently influenced the architecture of other empires from the Middle East to the Indian subcontinent.

The Adoration of the Magi is a tondo, or circular painting, of the Adoration of the Magi assumed to be that recorded in 1492 in the Palazzo Medici Riccardi in Florence as by Fra Angelico. It dates from the mid-15th century and is now in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C. Most art historians think that Filippo Lippi painted more of the original work, and that it was added to some years after by other artists, as well as including work by assistants in the workshops of both the original masters. It has been known as the Washington Tondo and Cook Tondo after Herbert Cook, and this latter name in particular continues to be used over 50 years after the painting left the Cook collection.

The doorway effect is a known psychological event where a person's short-term memory declines when passing through a doorway moving from one location to another when it would not if they had remained in the same place. People experience this effect by forgetting what they were going to do, thinking about, or planning upon entering a different room. This is thought to be due to the change in one's physical environment, which is used to distinguish boundaries between remembered events: memories of events encountered in the present environment are more accessible than those beyond it.

As a result of the tensions, Brazil had three presidents in the span of a single week.
