Gorani

Hi SunDown I you did make a mistake! Gorani are an ethnic croat group! Because they are bosniaks and bosniaks are Croats of muslim faith!

Now this seems a little bit nationalistik but I have reasons! Long story short there was never a bosniak tribe which settled the balkans with the Croats and serbs! And there are many more arguments over that!

Not to mention that he closest related ethnic group to the bosniaks are the Croats

But I have other arguments! Anyways thank you for notifying me about the change! As we concluded the Bosniaks are muslim Croats! And there is so much proof that tie the Gorani to these Croats! I would like the change back the page in the way I corrected it

If you don’t agree that is completely fine! I respect everyones opinion but this is my opinions

Again thanks for notifying me have a great day 78.0.55.150 (talk) 16:35, 4 August 2023 (UTC)

Mistake in Wyomissing high school page

I apologize, it was an accidental copy-paste without adding the rest of the information. AlsoPterodactyl (talk) 16:18, 4 August 2023 (UTC)Reply I understand why you reverted the student demographics section, but did you also mean to revert my edits on the History section? Thanks!

Brit Awards 1996

You incorrectly reverted my edit on the page. I corrected the wrong quote, which was misquoted by the article and provided a first-hand source for the correct quote, the actual video recording of the words being said. Please don't do that in the future. --Luchador619 (talk) 06:56, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello Luchador619, the references given clearly stated "Hasbeens shouldn't give awards to gonnabes." If the source is incorrect, you must provide alternative references that said otherwise. Wikipedia is about verifiability, and your preferred version can't be verified by the current reference per WP:RS. The actual video recording can't be seen as reference, as editors watching the video and taking the quote from such video is WP:OR.

As it stands, the stable version should stand - you are welcome to provide different reference that quote your preferred version. I will revert to the stable version. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 16:14, 5 August 2023 (UTC)

Punjab University Law College

Hi! I've improved the page "Punjab University Law College" by adding infobox and some history. I'll improve it more by adding detailed history and current standing after my research. So will the page still be deleted or the warning message will be removed on its own? Thanks Dawood Ch 471 (talk) 08:45, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

It looks like the article will be Kept. The page won't be deleted and the warning message will be removed on its own. Have a good day! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 17:12, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of 2022 United States infant formula shortage

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article 2022 United States infant formula shortage you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Sammi Brie -- Sammi Brie (talk) 06:03, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for taking up the article for GA review. Hopefully I can work it out with you. I would have to admit that the timing caught me in a bit of pickle, as these weeks I would be particularly busy for work, but I will try my best. Again, thank you! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 10:42, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – August 2023

Technical news

The tag filter on Special:NewPages and revision history pages can now be inverted. This allows hiding edits made by automated tools. (T334338)
Special:BlockedExternalDomains is a new tool that allows easier blocking of plain domains (and their subdomains). This is more easily searchable and is faster for the software to use than the existing MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. It does not support regex (for complex cases), URL path-matching, or the MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist. (T337431)

Arbitration

The arbitration cases named Scottywong and AlisonW closed 10 July and 16 July respectively.
The SmallCat dispute arbitration case is in the workshop phase.

Review of Prussia-U.S. relations article

Hello, SunDawn, just wanted to check in in case you haven't had time to review my recent article creation as you have done so in the past. The article was moved out of my user space back in July. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 16:05, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Review of Euskirchener Kreisbahnen

Hi! I saw that you marked Euskirchener Kreisbahnen as reviewed, but it currently has no inline citations. I don't think it complies with WP:V, and it may have been more appropriate to WP:DRAFTIFY or at least tag it for sourcing issues. I wouldn't consider that article ready for mainspace. I've discussed this with the creator User_talk:Kelisi#Euskirchener_Kreisbahnen. Let me know what you think. Happy editing! :) Actualcpscm (talk) 14:01, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

I do agree that it lacked inline citations, and I have tagged it as such. From my point of view, this article is still good enough due to WP:NEXIST. It also didn't look like a hoax or lies, the main difficulty is finding the pages of the book. But the safer position is to WP:DRAFTIFY it, and I have no objection to draftification. ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 14:11, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback! I agree that (lack of) notability is probably not a major concern here. Have a good day. Actualcpscm (talk) 14:14, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

The railway was part of the Euskirchen district's industrial history; so of course it's notable. Well, ladies and gentlemen, we have a problem: I have discovered that the German article's creator, Nordgau (I was mistaken earlier about it being Radiojunkie), died on 14 October 2021 (it says so on his userpage on de:WP); so I will have to figure out what to do over on de:WP to see whether anybody there can furnish inline citations for the original German article. Any chance of having them in the English article is contingent on that, as the sources are actual printed books published in Germany.Kelisi (talk) 15:10, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

That's really sad, rest in peace :(

Regarding the books, it might be worth checking at WP:RX if someone has access to these books in some (searchable) digital archive. Actualcpscm (talk) 15:20, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

Talk:2022 United States infant formula shortage/GA1

Wanted to know if you plan on making any changes to this article? I don't want to start a full review until the sourcing and missing context issues are fixed. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 19:16, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
