If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Pilar Del Rey requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Draft missing required translation attribution

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from it:Ken Scott (stilista) to Draft:Ken Scott (fashion designer). While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. Sample wording for this is given here. If you forgot, or were not aware of this requirement, attribution must be given retroactively, for example:

NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

Retroactive attribution may be added using a dummy edit; see Repairing insufficient attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk page of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, you must add attribution retrospectively, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.
Please also note that the copyright requirments underlying translation attribution apply to all articles and drafts, including drafts that are never released as an article.

Note: the same thing applies to your translation at Draft:Andreas Englisch. For this draft, I have provided retroactive attribution for you, in this edit, of 08:10, 4 March 2025. If there are other articles or drafts of yours that represent translations from other Wikipedias and lack translation attribution in the edit history, these must be added, even if a long time has passed. If there are a great many of them, a tool is available to add retroactive attribution en masse; if it is only a small number, it is probably easier to just do them by hand, like I just did. Ask for help if you need it. Going forward, please always add translation attribution to your edit summary at the time of translation; for proper wording, see WP:TFOLWP. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 08:15, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again. Just realized you are a very senior editor. Sorry for the templates, but they do include a lot of information that would be tedious to type out. Also, although the licensing requirement was always there afaik, some of the specifics of what kind of operations require attribution (copying and translating from sister projects), and where to place it (the edit summary/page history), as well as the specific wording to use in each case (WP:CWW and WP:TFOLWP when done on time, and WP:RIA when catching up after the fact) only developed much later, and you might have missed the memo. So, sorry about the somewhat impersonal templates, but the info they present is important. As this is policy with legal implications, it sits above normal policy and guidelines, and has to be dealt with. Ping me if you need support or assistance. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 08:27, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

This is follow-up to this comment of yours in section § Finishing school for articles below where you stated that you already attributed translated content you added to Westend Synagogue; this follow-up is more appropriate in this section than there.

Actually, your attempts to include attribution were unfortunately not enough as they do not comply with Wikipedia's licensing requirements. To provide proper attribution, you should add a dummy edit to that article, and include wording in the edit summary similar to that given at WP:RIA. A more detailed explanation follows. Please read it, as this is about a Wikipedia policy with legal implications and may not be ignored.

You are no doubt familiar with the hierarchy of force or compulsion underlying Wikipedia's policies and guidelines and other informational pages, where policy must almost always be followed, with very rare exceptions; guidelines represent Wikipedia consensus, but may occasionally be ignored for good reason; informational and Help pages are suggestions for best practice but not compulsory, and essays are pure editor opinion, with no compulsive force at all. Even a policy can be ignored sometimes, based on Pillar Five of our core principles, WP:IAR.

However, did you know that standing above policy is something even stronger, that may never be ignored under any circumstances? These are policies with legal implications. There are very few such, but include such things as libel, child protection, legal threats, and in particular, copyright, which has numerous aspects and (among other things) informs the licensing requirements for copying or translating content from one Wikipedia article to another. These requirements for translation attribution derive from the Wikimedia Terms of Use, and are explained for us non-legal humans primarily at WP:Copying within Wikipedia, which explains where to place the notification (in the edit history) and what wording to use. Unfortunately, although the spirit of your previous attempts to attribute the translation was in the right place, they are actually non-compliant and still require attribution in a form that meets the requirement.

The editing guideline WP:Copying within Wikipedia interprets the policy and suggests wording to use for this, in particular, see WP:TFOLWP, which has the following suggested edit summary to attribute a French translation:

  • Content in this edit is translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

If such an edit summary was absent from the original edit, then the wording is different; in that case, the wording is given at WP:RIA:

  • NOTE: Content in the edit of 01:25, January 25, 2023 was translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution.

It is this latter model that needs to be added to the edit history of an article that lacks translation attribution, including, for example, Westend Synagogue. Can you please add it, using a dummy edit? Going forward for your new articles, please add the wording in the top example to the edit summary of the same edit where you add translated content. This is important; if there is anything that is unclear, please ask. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 23:07, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for this. I will follow this policy closely going forward. Best, Thriley (talk) 15:40, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Great. That just leaves the issue of past translations that still require attribution to be added. Fortunately, that is much less onerous than it used to be, due to a new, bot-like procedure that can provide attribution en masse to a list of articles, so you don't have to do them one by one. It starts from a list containing the English Wikipedia article name, the translation timestamp, and the foreign Wikipedia article it came from. To make the process easier for you, I have created User:Thriley/translations for you by extracting information from your contribution history via regular expressions. It's possible that the list has mistakes, or is incomplete. Please go over it, and fix up any problems or omissions you see, or note them at the Talk page. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 22:18, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Just FYI: I added subpage /translation drafts for the ones you created in Draft space. Please have a look and lmk if you see any problems. In particular, I assume these are all translations, so if any of them are *not* a translation of a foreign Wikipedia article, please flag them. Mathglot (talk) 22:12, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Draft

I looked at the Kulturkaufhaus. It's mentioned on 2 pages, so I am reluctant of investing much time. How about a stub with the basics and leave the advertising details to the German article? -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:37, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at the references: some lost, one is from the house itself, some badly formatted, - not much left to build on, perhaps the two Tagesspiegel articles (one of them not marked as such). Nothing left about the architecture. - The synagogue (below) is perhaps worthier to invest time. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:28, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for looking. A stub certainly would be fine for now. I was surprised it had no English article when I went to Wikipedia to learn about it recently. Thriley (talk) 20:33, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Westend Synagogue moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Westend Synagogue, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Dan arndt (talk) 09:15, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Move to Draft space undone; restored to Mainspace. See next section. Mathglot (talk) 10:43, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Finishing school for articles

So, the good news, is that Westend Synagogue is clearly a notable topic, which means it is worthwhile for inclusion in Wikipedia. Thanks for starting it! That said, there are a number of problems with it, that prompted another user to remove it from the encyclopedia:

  • It had the wrong title. We use English titles at English Wikipedia, per WP:AT and WP:UE. I have fixed the previous foreign title, so it is now in English.
  • It was unattributed. Translations from other Wikipedias *must* have proper attribution added to the edit history. See WP:CWW for details, and WP:TFOLWP for suggested wording. If you forget, you can add attribution retroactively, per WP:RIA. This is a *must*, and has to be dealt with. See section § Draft missing required translation attribution above for details.
  • When creating any new English article that exists already on another Wikipedia (whether it is a translation or not) you should link it to the foreign article(s) via Wikidata using the language links. I have done this for you, linking it to de:Westend-Synagoge.
  • It is an WP:ORPHAN, meaning, no articles link to it, so nobody will ever find your article and read it. It's a waste of your time to create articles that are orphans; please take the time to add links to your new article from others. See WP:ORPHAN or how to find in-lnks and add them.
  • There were no outgoing links. In order to fully integrate the article into the encyclopedia, you should add links to other articles. (Some have since been added by two editors.) See WP:LINK.
  • It requires additional citations. The only two citations are WP:BAREURLs, and they need to be upgraded to full citations, and more citations need to be added.
  • Before updates, it was an uncategorized stub. This has been fixed with the addition of several categories.

Because of the parlous state it was in, another editor removed the article from mainspace, where you created it, and moved it to draft space. I undid this move, restoring your article to mainspace because it is clearly WP:Notable, but I understand why they did that, and it was a defensible move. Please now get to work on fixing the remaining issues with this article, so that it is worthy to remain among the encyclopedic articles at Wikipedia. When you create new articles going forward, please be sure to keep these points in mind. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 10:43, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I did attribute the origin of the content, I just did so with a casual "From German Wikipedia." I also included the proper attribution on the article talk page to state that I had translated content from the article in German. I meant to expand the article later, which has been done now somewhat. I appreciate the assistance. Best, Thriley (talk) 20:29, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Hello again, Thriley. The casual, "From German Wikipedia" is a helpful reminder to you, and the {{translated page}} template on the article Talk page is nice to have, but neither complies with the translation attribution requirement that is part of Wikipedia's licensing requirements. As this topic is less about improving the article, and more about copyright compliance which is a different animal, I have followed up in detail at the earlier discussion about this topic: see subsection § Translation attribution is part of a policy with legal considerations. Please read it carefully. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 23:16, 4 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your machine translations

Thriley, may I ask you to list which languages you speak or read well enough to do a translation from a foreign Wikipedia article into English? You can use the {{Babel}} template for this if you wish on your user page.

Looking at your contributions, you appear to have translated articles from Arabic, Cebuano, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Farsi, French, German, Hebrew, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Malaysian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Tajik, Ukrainian, Uzbek, and Vietnamese. Unless you are a hyperpolyglot, you must be translating from languages you do not know, presumably using machine translation to do so.

This is problematic with respect to accuracy of content, because at best, a translated article is only as good as the original, and articles at other Wikipedias often are of lower quality than at English Wikipedia, or have problems of sourcing or accuracy. In addition, if the articles use citations to foreign sources that you cannot read, then we don't know if the article is verifiable which is potentially a serious problem. Please limit your translations to languages you known well enough to verify are correct in the original, and to know when machine translation gets it wrong (which happens all the time).

Hello there! Since you had access to this article, I'd like to ask you if you could check whether that whole Honolulu Star issue has any copyright notice. If it doesn't, then that photograph could be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons for use here and elsewhere, as it may have lapsed into the public domain. Many thanks!

Notice

The article Firerose has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Sources focus on their relationship with Billy Ray Cyrus. Notability is not inherited, and nothing here shows this singer is notable on their own.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
