Hi RevelationDirect. Thank you for your work on YMCA Building (San Diego). Another editor, Aszx5000, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Nicely constructed article - why are you not autopatrolled? thanks.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Aszx5000}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

@Aszx5000: I don't mind the scrutiny but would that save other editors time? If so, how do I apply to become autopatrolled? - RevelationDirect (talk) 14:55, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

For editors who are definitely at the standard - and the articles you are creating at at that standard - it is far more efficient that they are autopatrolled, which you can ask for here (you will see I pointed User:Pdebee there yesterday for the same reasons).

Also, you should think about WP:DYKNOM which is a very nice way of further validating new articles (you get 7 days to put your new article to DYK), which is another good validation of your editing :) best regards Aszx5000 (talk) 15:27, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi RevelationDirect, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Elli (talk | contribs) 13:24, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is there any reason in particular why most sugar industry categories are at Sugar industry of Foo rather than Sugar industry in Foo? The latter would be more consistent with most other industry categories, e.g. those under Category:Automotive industry by country and Category:Petroleum industry by country. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:55, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, while not all of the categories have a main article, without exception the ones that do use "of" including Sugar industry of India, Sugar industry of the United States, and Sugar industry of Cuba. If those main articles were renamed in an RM, I'd of course favor speedy renaming all the corresponding categories per WP:C2D. (Substantively, I have no preference for "of" versus "in" though.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 16:41, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is $3338 going into it, with $500 the top prize and $250 worth of prizes for architectural articles. If you are interested in winning something to help you buy books for future content, or just see it as a good editathon opportunity to see a lot of articles improved for articles which interest you, sign up on the page in the participants section if interested.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:02, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Just wanted to send you a quick note of thanks for productively engaging in the discussion. I just wanted to pop by to apologize that I hadn't had the time to get back to you on my usertalk to your questions yet as I have had very little time in the past week-ish due to some life detours, but I'll try to see if I can come up with a starting point unless some other helpful editor comes along to help. Raladic (talk) 05:12, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Raladic: Understood, real life is important, and you have a lot on your plate. When I filed an ArbComm case, I found it much more time consuming and stressful in real life than I expected. (And mine wasn't even about an important topic area like yours, but a dispute stemming from CFD actually.)

All the best! RevelationDirect (talk) 12:48, 1 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi LexiFixer, Totally get that your anxious to get it reviewed and potentially published. That particular one is way outside my areas of expertise, so I'm not able to help you direclty. I think there are editors who work that queue but, if you're looking to speed things up, it might be more productive to reach out to Wikipedia talk:Noticeboard for India-related topics or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Cities to get help. (Some WikiProjects are more active than others, the one for India looks like it has more participants, but they're generally helpful.)

In any case, thank you for your contributions and happy editing! RevelationDirect (talk) 15:05, 13 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Category:Fort Novosel indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. SɱαɾƚყPαɳƚʂ22 (Ⓣⓐⓛⓚ) 23:37, 5 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You made several edits to Centre for Research of Orthodox Monarchism in 2013, so I am hoping that you can help. Another editor said that the article Centre for Research of Orthodox Monarchism is out of date and needs current information. Has the Centre for Research of Orthodox Monarchism closed permanently? Please edit the article to add the references from the corresponding article in the Serbian Wikipedia and to add current information about the Centre and its leadership. LeapTorchGear (talk) 06:06, 7 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The most pressing issue would be to find some reliable secondary sources to confirm notability. I was honestly not able to find any in English on Google or the Wikipedia Library, but maybe the name is translated differently. If you have access to Serbian language sources or are able to translate articles from Serbian Wikipedia, that might be a potential avenue. (Do note that different language Wikipedia have different standards so any citations would need to be verified and checked to ensure it meets the expectations of this Wikipedia.)

Hi, thank you for opening the discussion about the reverts related to the silent radio stations CfD (I was still pondering where the best place to bring this up would be)! Just a small point: You wrote in your initial post that I carried out that decision by moving 6 stations to defunct categories including [names of six stations] even though I moved 23 stations, but maybe that detail is not important enough to be worth editing the post. Felida⁹⁷ (talk) 16:37, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Whenever I summarize an issue, I'm always afraid I'll goof up and unintentionally mischaracterize it. This is minor but I updated it anyway. Thanks! RevelationDirect (talk) 17:14, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No worries, thanks! Unfortunately, I think I confused you by mentioning the total number of stations in the category at the time the discussion was closed (24) in my reply (I did only move 23 stations to defunct categories because one station went back on the air during the discussion, so that number wasn't a typo).
