Proposed deletion of Chanda dynasty

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

No sources seem to exist that associate a Chanda dynasty with Jaipur in Rajasthan

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages 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.

Why

Why is the Nimi Stix article an orphan 444metaphor (talk) 18:40, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

444metaphor, Because no there at no links to it from other articles. MB 18:42, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

{{CN}} Vs {{Citation needed}}

Just out of curiousity is there any difference, or just personal preference? Also thanks for catching dated where it should have been date, apparently I've type that so many times I'm going blind. 89.241.33.89 (talk) 22:58, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

89.241.33.89, full names are preferred but other versions are fine. If fact, template names shouldn't be changed without a more substantive (non-cosmetic) change. See ]. MB 23:03, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the info 89.241.33.89 (talk) 23:08, 9 October 2021 (UTC)

Nuwandika Senarathna

Hello sir MB, Sir I see the massage you noted in Talk:Nuwandika Senarathna, Sir it should be included a reference to prove it but sir her official facebook page is the only one reference we can take as reliable, but we can't add it to Misplaced Pages as a reliable source, that's why sir I didn't add that reference there. May be I am saying this with my lack of experience, so that sir I expect you will teach me to get more experiences in Misplaced Pages. Sir could you please say me that can we add a Facebook link under Basic Citation? Thank you sir.—Superatp( 💬 ) 04:55, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

Akinlolu Jekins

Just a heads up...when the user removed the orphan tag, Helen Paul did link to the Jekins article. It no longer does because in my reverting back to before a copyright violation (made by another user), the link, which was promotional anyway, was removed.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:49, 19 October 2021 (UTC)

Line 2 (Shanghai Metro)

Hi MB. I've just added back the wikilinks you removed from the notes in this article. The links are circular (e.g. Line 2 (Shanghai Metro), but without them {{rcr}} throws a cite error when it's called breaking the table data. ActivelyDisinterested (talk) 13:21, 20 October 2021 (UTC) previously 89.241.33.89

ActivelyDisinterested, I looked into this further. {{rcr}} merely returns a color. Text should not be colored in the first place; it violates MOS:COLOR. I'm not colorblind and had trouble reading some of those colors due to the poor contrast. I've removed all the colored text and the circular redirects and it's all good now. Probably needs to be done in more of these articles also. MB 17:23, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

Likely every article {{rcr}} is in, it's an odd little template. I'll leave that to someone else though, I'm not taking on the railway enthusiasts. ActivelyDisinterested (talk) 19:20, 20 October 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Railroad and Bank Building

On 23 October 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Railroad and Bank Building, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Railroad and Bank Building was built with six miles (9.7 km) of pneumatic tubes used to send items anywhere within the building in under ten seconds? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Railroad and Bank Building. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Railroad and Bank Building), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Woodlands Checkpoint

I got conned by the Articles Alert in Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Singapore. It displayed that it was you who requested for the split, but upon completing the split article (sorta, I have spent the entire Sunday on it) and checking on the page history, it was an IP editor! – robertsky (talk) 11:53, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

Robertsky, yeah, all I did was fix a date on the split request. I didn't even glance at the article itself. I asked at WP:VPT if this could be fixed. But unless you are sure splitting a article is a good idea (regardless of who proposed it), I would suggest waiting longer to see if any discussion develops. MB 20:04, 24 October 2021 (UTC)

No worries. The split is done already. If anyone has objections, they can revert and go through BRD anyway. – robertsky (talk) 01:47, 25 October 2021 (UTC)

DYK-worthy topic: recycled stained glass from churches bombed in WWII, used in ND Episcopal church completed in 1949

Hi there, I haven't been very conversant, and not super-active, for quite a while, and particularly not in DYK area. But the topic of Draft:St. George's Episcopal Memorial Church seems pretty interesting, and I wonder if you'd like to develop it and submit it to DYK, either by yourself or with me too? It is mildly newsworthy/timely for DYK in that the church was just now (October 5, 2021) listed in the NRHP. But the interesting stuff is the windows. The source from around its 75th anniversary details which stained glass window derives from, or at least includes fragments from, which (bombed out) church in Kent, etc. I am hopeful we could link to the specific English churches/parishes whose buildings contributed. I think I saw one window was from 400 a.d. or 800 a.d. or the church was from that time. It is asserted this is only church in the US with windows like this; I have not ever heard of anything like this myself. Not sure if the stained glass designs copy the original churches' designs or not, or if they just include fragments. There is also assertion this is the "first building in the northern U.S. to use pumice concrete", whatever that is. Have a lot of sourcing, though have not found the NRHP registration document for it, but that could be requested, old-style from NPS, and/or found by contacting people in Bismarck, e.g. the named news reporter(s) or the church itself or the Bismarck Historical Society (about to have its annual mtg Nov 10). I would be happy to make those calls if we can't find it online somewhere first. --Doncram (talk) 03:11, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Doncram, here is the form (or at least a preliminary version, but in glancing at it there are two churches in England that "donated" glass. . I don't have a lot of time right now, but can work on it as time permits. MB 04:04, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

I just found that too. I could email the author to confirm it is final or obtain the final version. So with the old source from 75th anniversary, there is a lot available. Seems like there are no photos at Commons; it is not in [REDACTED] Media related to Churches in Burleigh County, North Dakota at Wikimedia Commons. Thanks for taking a look and responding so quickly. No rush at all. DYK clock has not started as it is in Draftspace. Okay by me if you want to copy it over later and leave edit history behind, by the way. --Doncram (talk) 04:12, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Request for correction of article framing (uncensored with ali tajdary)

hello, good morning, in my new article i had a problem with framing for the article (https://en.wikipedia.org/Uncensored_With_Ali_Tajdary ), please correct the framing of the upper part of the article if possible, thank you Hoseinkandovan (talk) 20:58, 31 October 2021 (UTC)

Request a review of the article (Ali Tajdary)

Hello. Good morning, I wrote an article about (Ali Tajdari), the article had problems, I fixed them, I added the appropriate links and removed the duplicate links, one of the administrators reviewed it before I edited it, and He said he could not comment on it and was not sure about it, could you review it? Hoseinkandovan (talk) 11:01, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

This is not an area in which I am knowledgeable of the subject, another reviewer will get to it eventually. MB 14:49, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Orphan tag on Kari Altmann

Hi, there are articles linking Altmann to the Post-Internet article and all those in the "Awards and Commissions" section. Could we now take this note off?--Wikitikitengo2 (talk) 18:02, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Wikitikitengo2, there are no links to this article from other articles (. MB 19:06, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

There was one when I created the article and I brought it back just now. Hope it lasts!--Wikitikitengo2 (talk) 01:07, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

Wikitikitengo2, it looks like that section may be removed again. You should add one to MICA; that will be more stable as notably alumni are standard components of school articles. MB 01:16, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

A cup of coffee for you!

Thanks for dealing with that certain page. It was mentioned on another page and I noticed it was blank so I figured I'd put something there. You took care of it better. AlphaWolf294 (talk) 02:11, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
