Question from Esterhazcolony (16:37, 17 February 2025)
Hello: I want to correct an item in “Esterhazy” Wikipedia at the end under “Count Paul Oscar Esterhazy” – the number of settlers is incorrect and where they came from in Hungary is incorrect. I want to insert the following instead along with the reference.
Count Paul O. d’Esterházy (30 September 1831 – 3 October 1912, a.k.a. Janos Baptista Packh) is credited for founding the Hungarian Esterház Colony in 1886 south of the present town of Esterhazy, in Saskatchewan, Canada. Of the 44 original settlers that immigrated in 1886, four families were originally from the Bohemia Lands and the remaining 40 settlers, made up of Hungarians and Slovaks, were from Greater Hungary who had first immigrated to the United States. By 1900, there were 108 Esterház Colony settlers. In 1903, his name was given to the Canadian Pacific Railway siding three miles north of the Esterház Colony, that is known today as the town of Esterhazy, Saskatchewan. Although christened Janos Baptista Packh, he claimed he had “incontrovertible proofs” of the legality of his claim and had the right to be called Paul O. d’Esterházy. However, documents substantiating his claim were never presented. His family in Hungary and the Hungarian Esterházy family also denied his claim.

Stub Request
Good day @UtherSRG
I just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to review Neddie Smith’s article sir. Having it taken down actually gave me the chance to dig deeper into his coverage, and I realized that a big reason he wasn’t as widely covered as he should be was due to issues with his old music distributor the kind that helps artists get their music on streaming platforms, like DistroKid.
With that in mind, I’ll be removing any press coverage that doesn’t meet Wikipedia’s standards and making some updates to improve the article. Given these adjustments plus other notable coverage on the subject article Resident Advisor, IMDb, The Source amongst others, sir what do you think about me removing some of those press coverage I talked about earlier sir and converting it into a stub instead of leaving it in draft space?
Would love to hear your thoughts, and again, really appreciate your time on this!
Best,

- As I said, please read WP:NMUSICBIO. Whether as a stub or a full article, it must satisfy the minimum requirements laid out there. You should also read WP:BLP, though I don't see any current breaches there, once you start removing references that don't pass WP:SIRS, you may need to remove unreferenced content. Once you think it meets the notability requirements, please submit the draft for review and a reviewer will eventually come upon it and review it. - UtherSRG (talk) 12:34, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
Submitted
Good day sir @UtherSRG i have corrected and fixed all issues so it has to meet up with WP:NM WP:BLP and WP:MUSICBIO and am now fully sure it qualifies for a STUB or a full article thank you and enjoy the rest of your day. Dahproman (talk) 20:13, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- Ok. Someone will be along to review in in a day or a month or so... - UtherSRG (talk) 21:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
Question from MOHAMMED A SHARIF (13:23, 20 February 2025)
hello brother i want to add a page on wikipedia for this news org what shoul i do ? can you help me ? --MOHAMMED A SHARIF (talk) 13:23, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- I am not your brother. You should start at WP:MFA. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:27, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
- I have moved your sandbox to Draft:Aljeebal. However, I see you work there. I will put a COI notice on your talk page. I've also deleted your userpage as it was against our policies. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:32, 20 February 2025 (UTC)
Question
Are you able to intervene with the talk page section of an article? I see no way to get to a consensus. Engage01 (talk) 12:47, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- No. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:20, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- It's not an easy thing to hash out something with editors who won't engage on their talk page sections. I can't debate with them if they won't even talk. Engage01 (talk) 13:29, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- You do what you can for as long as you can on the article's talk page. When you feel that that has failed, you take the discussion to another venue designed for these discussions, or where intervention can be requested neutrally, such as WP:DRN. Seeking out individuals is canvassing, as pointed out below. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:33, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- Another venue is an admin in many cases. You don't wish to be involved, fine. Engage01 (talk) 13:42, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- As I said, there are places for engaging admins in a neutral manner, like WP:DRN. Please do not seek out individuals so settle disputes. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:44, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- I don't have more to ask you, DRN is not something I think most users understand. Engage01 (talk) 13:46, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- And now you know. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:48, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- No, I don't think I do know. DNR is not something "most" may understand. I am not understanding that much about it other than that it seeks to resolve disputes per its name. Engage01 (talk) 13:56, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
- Does your original question to me not fall under the umbrella of requesting a dispute resolution? Please cease this argumentation. - UtherSRG (talk) 13:59, 22 February 2025 (UTC)
