  • Draft:Mishiiken Tribe of Mackinac Island (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

This is in regards to the article that you reviewed, Draft:Mishiiken Tribe of Mackinac Island. Can you tell me what in particular you are talking about, signs of an LLM? After my initial denial I did use ChatGPT to organize my article, but all of the writing is my own as are the very valid sources. I went through and fixed the broken links to sources and made sure everything was correct. I am not fully versed in the sections or templates, so I can’t really speak to that. Can you please give me some specifics about what you found that is a problem so that I can correct it? Thank you.

Mamaazhi'iwe (talk) 01:42, 22 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mamaazhi'iwe. Your draft displays several obvious indicators of LLM use as outlined at WP:LLMSIGNS. I recommend you start again without using AI at all -- if you have an initial draft before ChatGPT got involved, use that as your base. There are plenty of helpful humans here who will help you with organizing and fixing errors. Otherwise, you will likely find yourself stuck in a loop. Hope that helps. Happy holidays, MediaKyle (talk) 02:33, 22 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

January–February 2026 Backlog Drive | New pages patrol
New Pages Patrol is hosting a one-time, two-month experimental backlog drive aimed at reducing the backlog. This will be a combo drive: both articles and redirects will earn points. The drive will run from 1 January to 28 February 2026. The drive is divided into two phases. Participants may take part in either phase or across both phases, depending on availability.

Hello, I noticed you recently added links to opinion polls to the {{44th Canadian Parliament}} and {{45th Canadian Parliament}} templates. I have removed them for now as I think the way they were placed might cause some confusion. For example, opinion polling for the 44th general election is not very relevant to the 44th Parliament, as they would have been conducted while the 43rd Parliament was in session, hence why I don't think it belongs in a navbox titled "44th Canadian Parliament". However, I would not be opposed to adding the opinion polling for the next election in a separate group of the navbox, as it would reflect the popular opinion of the parliamentarians of that specific parliament. E.g. Opinion polling for the 46th Canadian federal election would be relevant in the {{45th Canadian Parliament}} template. Would you be on board with that? RedBlueGreen93 01:04, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the message. I trust your judgement, do whatever you think would be best for navigation. I was merging some duplicative sidebars into their respective navboxes, so I just copied those links from there. If you don't think all of them belong or you want to re-organize them, I won't stand in your way. Cheers, MediaKyle (talk) 01:11, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. Thanks, RedBlueGreen93 01:12, 30 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Did you create the page for Patrick Woodcock? Farhang Bennett (talk) 18:21, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there, that would be me yes. If you'd like to discuss the article's content feel free to leave a message at Talk:Patrick Woodcock and we can go over it there, happy to make changes if need be. Cheers, MediaKyle (talk) 18:34, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I am Patrick Woodcock - why did you create the page - a lot of the information is incorrect. I really want it removed or edited. Farhang Bennett (talk) 19:40, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Did you do it for ECW? Farhang Bennett (talk) 19:44, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a volunteer -- no one is employing me, nor most editors, to create Wikipedia articles. I created an article about you because you're a notable Canadian writer, and I like to create articles related to Canadian literature. Can you please tell me what specifically is incorrect? Thanks, MediaKyle (talk) 19:52, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I would like it deleted if that is ok - I do not have time to edit the entire page and I am quite busy. I have two new books coming out in 2026 and do not want misinformation online about me. Farhang Bennett (talk) 19:55, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid deletion is unlikely at this point, and further, you shouldn't be editing the article anyways -- article subjects are strongly discouraged from writing about themselves on Wikipedia. If you have an issue with the content of the article, please leave specifics at Talk:Patrick Woodcock so they can be addressed. Otherwise, the article subjects FAQ may be of use to you. I'm sorry that you aren't happy with the article, but I need to know what's wrong in order to fix it -- I can only go off what the sources say, and I trust The Canadian Encyclopedia. All the best, MediaKyle (talk) 20:00, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

What rubbish - I have already reported you and this site to Wikipedia. You have no idea how to fact check obviously. Farhang Bennett (talk) 20:02, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry that the article is unsatisfactory. You are in the best position to help me improve it by pointing out the inaccuracies -- I actually do not have the ability to delete the page, and it would survive a nomination for deletion based on the fact that you're covered in The Canadian Encyclopedia. There is not much I can do but make it better. MediaKyle (talk) 20:08, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

The Canadian Encyclopedia is shit. The info is wrong and they did not factor check it with the author. This is disgusting - I have reported it and have begun other ways to flag it and you as well - thanks for causing such great offense. What a waste of time - Farhang Bennett (talk) 20:12, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

== Misinformation on Patrick Woodcock's page ==

Hello,

My name is Patrick Woodcock. The page created is full of misinformation. Can I ask why it was created and if you work for ECW Press. Farhang Bennett (talk) 19:51, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Please delete the page. I appreciate you tried to do something kind but this is not the time and Wikipedia is not the place for it. Farhang Bennett (talk) 19:59, 2 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, can you take care of this, following MOS? Talk:Giorgia Meloni#who she said, "with the boards of their own examples, built the ladder that today allows me to climb and break the heavy glass ceiling placed over our heads". Thanks.

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Grimms Settlement, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lunenburg County.

He's back... per the History of the article. Starting a BLP Noticeboard discussion now that he's using two different accounts to edit the article about himself: Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#Patrick_Woodcock Geoff | ^{Who, me?} 15:13, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for reaching out, I noticed... The edit changing the book title was OK so I reinstated that, turns out it is most often referred to as "Farhang Book One"... not sure what else is wrong with the article because so far he has refused to elaborate. It's actually three accounts, if you check the history, there's also one under the name William Woodcock. I wouldn't assume any bad intentions in that regard, I think he's just forgetting his password or something and doesn't know that using multiple accounts tends to be frowned upon. He's clearly not trying to mislead anyone into thinking they're separate people. Hopefully this doesn't turn into a big thing -- out of the dozens of BLPs I've written, this is my first complaint. It's been an experience. MediaKyle (talk) 15:18, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

I am not using two different accounts and have not hidden who I am - I just don't want a Wikipedia account my friends. Wanting to have correct info on a page about me that I did not ask for before two new books come out is quite an obvious thing to want. Please review this page to see publications, awards and festivals -

and Yes, it is Farhang: Book One since two more volumes are coming out.

If you read more reviews and interviews I am not called a travelling poet - that intimates at a short time abroad - I live in these countries - sometimes for 4 years.

Can we fix this page - it is driving me crazy - here is a link to review - the publication and awards you have up are incorrect:

https://writers.ns.ca/member/patrick-woodcock/ Farhang Bennet (talk) 15:21, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

@Farhang Bennet: I would be glad to fix the article, but you haven't told me what's wrong with it yet. Can you please point out the specific inaccuracies and missing content at Talk:Patrick Woodcock? Thanks, MediaKyle (talk) 15:23, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

ok - will do it on the weekend when I have time Farhang Bennet (talk) 15:28, 15 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Thanks so much for reviewing my draft. I'm wondering what specifically appeared like LLM speech in the draft. While I did consult with an LLM, no language from an LLM was actually used in the draft. So perhaps you can point me to specific instances where it appears an LLM was used so I can correct. I was sure to edit out any language that sounded vague or promotional which was the claim in the first declined submission.

Thank you in advance for your time.
