Your submission at Articles for creation: Misao Okawa (September 1)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by OhHaiMark was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Translations require attribution in the edit summary

Hi, I noticed you recently created the page Yitzhak Shamir Road by translating the Hebrew Wikipedia's version of the article. You added the transplated page template to the talk, but under the terms of the CC-BY-SA 4.0 license, you need to provide attribution in your edit summaries on the article, not its talk page. Please read the instructions at WP:TFOLWP and follow them going forward. I've fixed the attribution for you on Yitzhak Shamir Road. Thanks!

A tag has been placed on Category:1808 establishments in Poland indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, 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. Liz Read! Talk! 22:28, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Someone removed Przedmieście Oławskie from the category, but I don't fully understand their reasoning from the edit description. Is it okay for me to add it back?
EytanMelech (talk) 22:32, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

OR

If text lacks RS support, it is OR. It is incumbent on the person adding the text to add such support, not on others. If it is deleted, it is incumbent on them to add it with inline RS citations, per wp:burden. 184.153.21.19 (talk) 06:04, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I wanted to follow up about an edit where, Ilya Galant was removed from a parent category.

This category is part of a group that falls under WP:EGRS, which covers categories based on ethnicity, gender, religion, sexuality, or disability. These categories are typically set up as non-diffusing. That means when a page is added to a subcategory like this one, it's still meant to be included in the parent category as well.

This is important because removing someone from the parent category can unintentionally change who appears to "belong" there. Over time, that can make the main category look less representative than it actually is, which the EGRS guideline is designed to avoid.

If you're not sure whether a subcategory is non-diffusing, you can often check the category page itself; many include a note or template. You can also read more at WP:EGRS and in the section on the final-rung rule. I hope this helps clarify things! SMasonGarrison 21:41, 4 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi EytanMelech. Thank you for your work on Synagogue of Urbino. Another editor, Klbrain, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Thank you for creating this page for a historic synagogue. It is very similar, but not identical, to the Italian article, which as created some time ago. If you do use other language versions to construct a page, this should be explicitly acknowledged in the first edit summary (see Help:Translation).
