== Help with summary style in [[India at the 2020 Summer Olympics]] ==

Hi Generalissima, I'm reviewing [[India at the 2020 Summer Olympics]] at the moment and it is one of the most exhausting reviewing experiences I've undertaken. The prose is clear but very repetitive; just look at [[India at the 2020 Summer Olympics#Athletics|the athletics section]]. I'm unsure how to proceed with evaluating against the GA criteria 3b{{Endash}}summary style and 1 in general. I noticed you held up [[Palestine at the 1996 Summer Olympics]] as a high quality Olympic article, but I wanted your feedback whether the gap between these articles is large enough, based on the GA crit, to be problematic? Thanks in advance, [[User:Rollinginhisgrave|Rollinginhisgrave]] ([[User talk:Rollinginhisgrave|talk]]) 05:20, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

:@[[User:Rollinginhisgrave|Rollinginhisgrave]] Hmm! That is an interesting case. You're right the prose is repetitive; it seems to be stating much of what has been said in the table in the prose (this is done a little bit with the Palestine 1996 article, but there also isn't that much else to say when you have a single athlete!) The GAN is certainly a good overview, but I think you're right that the prose of the individual sports needs to be in a stricter summary style for an article that big. A more condensed prose would probably help with the readability too. <small> [[User:Generalissima|Generalissima]] ([[User talk:Generalissima|talk]]) (it/she) </small>  05:26, 21 August 2024 (UTC)

It's been two and a half years since I [[User_talk:Generalissima/Archive_1#A_belated_welcome!|welcomed you and offered to answer any questions]], and about a year since you took me up on that. So I suppose that something like this is in order. There doesn't seem to be any barnstar for being a good mentee, but you're still a new editor to me, #148 on [[WP:WBGAN]] or not, so here you go.

I think you're well aware of how impressive it is what you've accomplished in a year, so I won't stroke your ego too much, but I will say that this has been just about the easiest mentorship experience someone could ask for. More importantly, it's been great to watch you grow in this time, seeing how Wikipedia's given you a space to share your interests with the world. It's also meant fewer late-night phone calls listening to you talk about coins, so truly a win-win for me.

It's easy to lose sight, amidst the heartache and the thousand natural shocks of building an encyclopedia, of the importance of what we do here. The more cynical I've become about this project and how we sometimes overstate our own righteousness, the more I understand just how much what we write about influences the way people see the world. It's not just that people go to us for their facts. It's that our facts decide what a lot of people think about. Whether we have a decently-written article on a topic might be the difference between someone ever learning or not learning that that thing exists. Relative to the size of that burden, there aren't nearly enough people in the world who are both able to create good content and willing to do so for free while conforming to our policies. I'm glad that you are one of those people, and glad to have you in my life. <code>:)</code> Happy editing, newbie. <span style="font-family:courier"> -- [[User:Tamzin|<span style="color:#E6007A">Tamzin</span>]]</span><sup class="nowrap">&#91;[[User talk:Tamzin|<i style="color:#E6007A">cetacean needed</i>]]&#93;</sup> <small>([[User:Tamzin/🤷|they&#124;xe]])</small> 04:17, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

== Re: Fisheries in the Philippines ==

Thanks for the review at DYK! It means a lot because I partly joined the DCWC to try and force myself to finish that draft, and I thought it may have been too late. Originally I was going to write an article on fisheries management areas as I find it interesting as a topic (see my request for a map [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Wikipedia:Graphics_Lab/Map_workshop&diff=prev&oldid=1228071617 here] which sadly no-one was able to do). However, I noticed the distinct lack of articles on fisheries for the Philippines or Indonesia (the other country I know of with FMAs), so I thought I may as well make one of those articles. Sadly, sources begot sources and the article got too long and the scope kept creeping and we are where we are. I've never made a good topic; I don't know how to evaluate whether this is every article you would expect from a topic on Philippine fisheries. I am generally quite hesitant to nominate GAs, and the sub-articles started as holding pens for overflowing information so may still need work. I know I wouldn't consider the Aquaculture article a GA, and would also have to take another look at Commercial fisheries. If you have thoughts from the perspective of someone who hasn't had their brain turned to mush by this topic for months, I'd of course welcome them. [[User:Chipmunkdavis|CMD]] ([[User talk:Chipmunkdavis|talk]]) 08:36, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
*{{yo|Chipmunkdavis}} GA criteria is fairly lenient, and I don't think you should be super hesitant to nominate stuff as long as its fully sourced and provides a somewhat decent overview; I feel even Aquaculture would pass it. The only things I could possibly think of that'd be missing would be sport/recreational fishing (although I have no idea how much of a thing that is in the Philippines), the [[Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources]] itself, and possibly a split on illegal fishing in the country if theres enough info on that.<small> [[User:Generalissima|Generalissima]] ([[User talk:Generalissima|talk]]) (it/she) </small>  18:34, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
*:Oh, maybe traditional fishing practices too if there's anthropological/historical papers on that? <small> [[User:Generalissima|Generalissima]] ([[User talk:Generalissima|talk]]) (it/she) </small>  18:36, 29 September 2024 (UTC)
:::I do always also say the criteria are lenient, but perhaps I also don't treat my own work the same way. The second opinion is really quite helpful though, I will keep it in mind. Recreational fishing does exist, perhaps mostly as tourism, but it's not going to be a big thing on its own as for the vast majority of people anyone recreationally fishing would eat or sell the resulting fish anyway. However, there is definitely enough out there to have a dedicated article on illegal fishing, I suspect there would be for most countries. Further, while I haven't looked into it specifically, I suspect you could really get into the weeds and have articles on the tuna fisheries, the sardine fisheries, and specific species farming if you wanted. For example, I [[WP:REDYES]]ed [[genetically improved farmed tilapia]], itself a subset of wider tilapia farming. So I'm not sure where the boundary lies in GT between the actual articles and the possible articles. [[User:Chipmunkdavis|CMD]] ([[User talk:Chipmunkdavis|talk]]) 01:32, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
::::{{u|Chipmunkdavis|CMD}} From what I have seen the line for GT is where the components parts provide a overview of the whole topic. There's way more you could say add to [[Wikipedia:Good topics/Macedonia (ancient kingdom)]], [[Wikipedia:Featured topics/Everglades]], or [[Wikipedia talk:Featured topics/Han dynasty]], but they give an overview of the topic collectively from a bunch of different angles under the main article. I don't think specific species fisheries would be needed, since they'd be given some coverage across all the articles. <small> [[User:Generalissima|Generalissima]] ([[User talk:Generalissima|talk]]) (it/she) </small>  01:53, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

For their submission of one FAC review, five FLC reviews, and 20 GAN reviews, {{DCWC participant|Simongraham}} wins for most article reviews.

The results of the contest have far exceeded any expectations the coordinators had for it at the beginning: among the submissions to the event were 3 FAs, 10 FLs, 88 GAs, dozens of article reviews of every kind, and more Did you know? submissions than we can count!

== Your WikiCup submission: [[Template:Did you know nominations/Wing Sam Chinn]] ==

Hi Generalissima, thanks for participating in the WikiCup. You recently submitted [[Template:Did you know nominations/Wing Sam Chinn]] for DYK points, but unfortunately it is not eligible for DYK points because it was nominated to DYK as a newly promoted GA. Had you nominated the page to DYK when it was first created/expanded, the article would've been eligible for DYK points.

I know this can be disappointing, but [[Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring#Did you know?]] states that only newly created or expanded DYKs are eligible for DYK points. The rules specifically exclude DYK submissions from receiving points if their appearance on DYK is solely because the article was a newly promoted GA.

Hi Laura. Impressive showing in the Wikicup. You recently recommended a reference format that includes things like <nowiki>"{{harvid|StreetNapieralaJanssens|2015}}" and "Street, Martin; Napierala, Hannes; Janssens, Luc."</nowiki> I haven't been keeping up with how these things are handled at FAC, but the more serious source reviews at FLC aren't going to be happy about discarding all the parameters that keep track of first and last names. Are there other options? - Dank ([[User talk:Dank|push to talk]]) 16:16, 2 November 2024 (UTC)
