Tune the Rainbow

[edit]

Hello Josh, first of all thanks for reviewing some of the Maaya Sakamoto song articles I’ve written. I was wondering if you could vouch for the article I wrote for Tune the Rainbow, as some people want to delete it. Or if you could tell me what could I add so they don’t delete it. Thanks in advance クラウデド (talk) 20:03, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @クラウデド, please do not follow up with anybody with messages such as these, as it may be considered WP:CANVASSING. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:20, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ghang Lhamo

[edit]

Good afternoon, nice to meet you. I am going to create an article on Tibetan politician Ghang Lhamo as part of the Women in Red project, and I have read the notice stating that you deleted the article in 2024 because it was created by someone in violation of a ban or block. I would therefore like to inform you that I am willing to create it, as there is nothing objective (notability of the person who is the subject of the article) or subjective that prevents me from doing so. In any case, if you consider that I should refrain from doing so for any reason that escapes me, I would appreciate it if you would let me know. Best regards. _-_Alsor (talk) 21:27, 20 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Alsoriano97, given that it was deleted under the rationale you mention, there's no need to give a heads up if you happen upon other similar articles that you wish to create. By all means, have it at, and thank you for putting the effort in to improve the project. Hey man im josh (talk) 13:04, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you Josh! _-_Alsor (talk) 21:27, 21 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for Creation backlog drive

[edit]

Hello Hey man im josh:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in December!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than half a month of outstanding reviews from the current 2+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 December 2025 through 31 December 2025.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 3000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 06:07, 23 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator Elections - Call for Candidates

[edit]

The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/December 2025/Candidates.

Here is the schedule:

  • November 25 – December 1 - Call for candidates
  • December 4–8 - Discussion phase
  • December 9–15 - SecurePoll voting phase

Please note the following:

  • The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
  • Prospective candidates are advised to become familiar with the community's expectations of administrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for admin elections candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
  • The process will have a seven day call for candidates phase, a two day pause, a five day discussion phase, and a seven day private vote using SecurePoll. Discussion and questions are only allowed on the candidate pages during the discussion phase.
  • The outcome of this process is identical to making a request for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA versus administrator elections.
  • Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.

Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. Later, a user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.

If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.
