A Personal Note of Thanks (From User: PennsylvanianSocialDemocrat

Hi! I noticed you created a page on the Zemskaya Rat. I just wanted to say this: Thank you so much for adding a little-known part of the Russian Civil War. Just out of curiosity, did you anything from my original draft of the article? I'm just saying, there's some good stuff to use there. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PennsylvanianSocialDemocrat (talk • contribs) 16:50, 12 June 2019 (UTC)

Military history of Puerto Rico

Even though the Battle of Zaragosa was a French victory, General Antonio Valero de Bernabe was considered a heroe and was condecorated by the Spanish Crown for his actions in said battle. Therefore, please do not delete anything from this article. Thank you, Tony the Marine 10:15, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

However, according to http://www.paris.org/Kiosque/aug02/history.aug.html the French armies were defeated by the Austrians in the Battle of Saragossa on August 20, 1710.

Battle of Saragossa

I am puzzled what battle this might be. It can't be the battle you refer at, because it was fought 100 years earlier. I will let you know if i find something.

Battle of Beachy head edit

Hello Filiep: You added this - "The ‘white’ squadron was commanded by Victor-Marie d'Estrées" to this paragraph:

"The French Admiral divided his force into the customary three squadrons – white and blue, white, and blue pennants respectively. Tourville, aboard the Soleil Royal, commanded the centre, or ‘white’, squadron.[16] The ‘blue’ squadron in the French van was commanded by Château-Renault. The ‘white’ squadron was commanded by Victor-Marie d'Estrées."

The addition of this last sentence contradicts the second sentence ie:Tourville commanded the White squadron. Did you mean d'Estees commanded the 'white and blue' squadron, or have I got it wrong? Cheers. Raymond Palmer 18:55, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the comment. I was very pleased with the links - I looked myself to find Chateau-Renault and Everstsen but couldn't find anything.

The third Allied commander I discover from 1911 Brittanica was Ralph Delaval. This seems to verify the fact (although I don't speak dutch):

'Beide vloten waren verdeeld in drie eskaders. In de Brits/Nederlandse vloot commandeerde luitenant-admiraal Cornelis Evertsen (1642-1706) op de Prinses Maria (92 stukken) de voorhoede, Torrington (Sovereign - 100 stukken) de hoofdmacht en vice-admiraal Ralph Delaval (St. Andrew - 100 stukken) de achterhoede. Aan Franse zijde leidde luitenant-generaal Francois-Louis Rouselet de Chateau-Renault (1637-1716) op de Dauphain Royal van 100 stukken de voorhoede, Tourville op Le Soleil Royal (100 stukken) het centrum en vice-admiraal Victor Marie D’Estrees (1660-1737) de achterhoede.'[1]

There's no article for him (at least I couldn't find one).

Keep up the good work. Raymond. Raymond Palmer 18:07, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Filiep to replying to my not so subtle hint about Ralph Delaval. If we can't find enough info to write a stub for him, well nevermind. He shall stay a red-link. Thanks for your help. If you you need any help in the future don't hesitate to ask - I have quite alot of books on the period. Are you Dutch? Your English is excellent. Raymond Palmer 15:56, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

Filiep, someones written a Ralph Delaval article :) Raymond Palmer 18:04, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

It looks like Sir Ralph Delaval, 2nd Baronet is not our Admiral Ralph Delaval. There's a reply from another user at the bottom of my talk page who seems to know about these things. It's all very confusing at times ;) Cheers for now. Raymond

WikiProject France

Hello! We are a group of editors working to improve the quality of France related articles. You look like someone who might be interested in joining us in the France WikiProject and so I thought I'd drop you a line and invite you! We'd love to have you in our project :-) STTW (talk) 18:31, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject France is a relatively new and we need new members to help is various departments one of them being Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Assessment. If you feel interested you could add your name to the list of members. Happy editing, STTW (talk) 20:40, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Newsletter n°1

Bonjour and welcome to the first WikiProject France newsletter!! It should become a monthly special of our project, but until the next issue, here are some points to consider for the month:

• In an effort to determine the active members from the inactive, all members are asked to simply sign on my special userpage.
• I have slightly rearranged and updated the Project page, putting all the featured lists in collapsible tables. This unclutteres the page and you only have to see them if you want to. Give your feelings at the talk page.
• I have made a Wikipedia advert for our project, Image:Qxz-ad108.gif, what do you think? Personally I feel the words need improving ...
• There are still map problems at Template:French commune - any help at resolving them would be greatly appreciated.
• What about starting a monthly drive? We currently have no Featured Portals (except for the Basque Portal which really isn't French any way), so how about improving Portal:France??? I don't know what's exactly wrong but the criteria can be seen at Wikipedia:Featured portal criteria.

It doesn't seem like a lot, so I hope we will still have enough problems for nexts months issue. Salut till the next issue, ChrisDHDR (17:15, 10 November 2007 (UTC)).

Page creations

Hi Filiep;

When creating pages on titled royals, such as Princess Maria Teresa of Savoy (just moved from Maria Teresa of Savoy), please observe WP:NC(NT). For kings and emperors, their articles are titled Name (Ordinal) of Place. Their consorts are titled Name of Place. Grand dukes, dukes and lower are titled Name (Ordinal), Title of Place. Their consorts are titled Title Name of Place. All other royals are titled Title Name of Place and holders of substantive titles are titled Title, Name of Place. There are a few exceptions and most of those are covered at WP:NC(NT). Happy editing. Charles 21:47, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Newsletter n°2

It's been one high aiming month! The French WikiProject and related pages have been aiming high for Christmas - and have received an equal number of presents in return!

• The French Portal is now a Featured Portal!!! It passed its Candidacy with 100%. Special thanks go to NYArtsnWords and all those that have made this Portal work.
• The Newsletter has made it to a second issue. You can find its page at WikiProject France/Outreach/Newsletter and its archives at WikiProject France/Outreach/Newsletter/Archives.
• A new page has been setup (WikiProject France/Links) to provide an index of the Projects/Portals pages (as well as helping newbees). When creating any pages in the Project/Portal namespace, please add them to the index page. This page also give WP:FRANCE members a handy watchlist.
• As like last time, members are asked to renew their memberships at Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Members.
• I will be on holiday when the next issue is meant to come out so could some generous person(s) please do the next issue at Wikipedia:WikiProject France/Outreach/Newsletter.

Well, that's this issue. Au revoir et à bientôt till the next time, ChrisDHDR (18:58, 9 December 2007 (UTC)).

Notability of Claudine Rhédey von Kis-Rhéde

A tag has been placed on Claudine Rhédey von Kis-Rhéde requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 18:21, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of British expedition against Cuba

A tag has been placed on British expedition against Cuba requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Anna Sforza

Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Anna Sforza, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Name change

Hi Filiep. I was just about to suggest a name change to the article Action of August 1702 to the Battle of Santa Marta when I realise that you had redirected the article from that name. Was there any particular reason for this? Would you object if I were to change it back to Santa Marta. I know the name is not that common, but I have seen it called the Battle of Santa Marta in a few sources. Thanks Rebel Redcoat (talk) 22:59, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

Doesn't matter. I can't find enough credible sources to justify a name change. Best. Rebel Redcoat (talk) 16:53, 11 July 2008 (UTC)

Havenwerken

Hi Filiep,

I saw your name in the history section of an article and I wonder if you can help me to find out anything about a construction company from Netherlands named Koninklijke Nederlandsche Maatschappij Voor Havenwerken. I live in the city of Mersin, South Turkey. The harbour of Mersin had been constructed by this company back in 1950s. It was an important company then and now I am searching to find out what happened to the company. I couldn’t gather anything from internet sources. But I have a very vague idea that the compant might have been sold to another company in Spain. Thanks Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 13:25, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:55, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 21:00, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Loon and Limburg

Hello! I saw your edit to County of Loon and then noticed your editing pattern is one that suggests you would be interested to see that I have recently expanded the historical section of Limburg (Belgium). You might be able to add a bit more. One thing I was trying to work out is exactly how Wikipedia should explain whether there is any part of the Duchy of Limburg still in the Province of Belgian Limburg. I think I am right that Dalhem sometimes counted as part of the Duchy, and that this means Voeren comes into this category? I saw somewhere else on Wikipedia (I am not sure if it was Dutch or English) that Rekem in Lanakan was also in the Duchy but I can not confirm this. It seems to have been directly under the emperor, not via the his title of Duke?--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 13:12, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Battle of Arques (1303)

Hey Filiep, Just wanted to let you know that I saw that you created the new article Battle of Arques (1303)--The content seems pretty substantial.It would be great if you could also add references to the related article Day of the Flemish Community.

I'm kind of new here myself but let me know if there is any way I can help. Thanks, Amy Z (talk) 20:03, 6 October 2011 (UTC)

Bernardino de Mendoza

There is no article on "Bernardino de Mendoza (Captain General)". Are you intending to create one? Until there it exists, it is inappropriate to change the title of the current article. We do not disambiguate names when there is no other article. Any links to "Bernardino de Mendoza" will still go to the same article, even if the "captain general" is intended. In such a case the links should be changed, not the article. Paul B (talk) 18:57, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

Please stop creating unreferenced and poorly referenced articles

You have created a slew of unreferenced and poorly referenced articles such as Philip of Burgundy-Beveren. Such articles do not improve the encyclopedia. If you have some book which contains information about a number of persons of nobility, please provide inline references to validate each statement. Also, more than one source is desirable, since if a person is notable by Wikipedia standards, there will be substantial coverage in several reliable sources. By adding such articles to Wikipedia, you perform a disservice. Please consider going back and adding references for the slew of poor articles you have created, before you create more such.

Liege casualties

Merci (Thanks) for the edit but do you have a published source for the casualty figure you have added; we aren't allowed to use Wikipedia as a source. |Regards Keith-264 (talk) 10:37, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi Keith. I understand your point. I searched on internet but I only found [2]. For the rest you find all kind of figures, even 25.000 German casualties in 1914 British newspapers ! Both sides lied about the casualty figures for political reasons, also the Germans. I just can't believe a quarter of the WWI Belgian casualties fell during these few days. Furthermore, no large military cemeteries are to be found in the Liege area. Something you would expect with some many soldiers killed. It must be an exaggeration, but I can't prove it (yet). Regards Filiep (talk) 13:22, 10 May 2014 (UTC)

Habeas corpus indeed. I used your web source as a reference and integrated it with the others but edited the commentary to avoid a possible NPOV objection. I hope that's ok but if not we can discuss it. Several editors have added to the Belgian Great War articles this year, so I'm sure you're welcome to join in, scrutinise them and suggest improvements.

Template talk:Navbar edit request

Hi. I reverted your protected edit request on Template talk:Navbar, as it clearly had nothing to do with that particular template (Template:Navbar). Your edit is for some other page which was unclear from the information provided there. I did find a couple of navigation templates which had incorrect "V T E" links on them, which took you to Navbar instead of the correct template. You may well be able to just edit the correct template, so I suggest you take another look and either discuss on the correct talk page or just make the changes you were requesting (if you know how to do it and it's not protected). --Murph9000 (talk) 13:25, 22 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

WikiProject assessment tags for talk pages

Thank you for your recent articles, including Arnold von Winckler, which I read with interest. When you create a new article, can you add the WikiProject assessment templates to the talk of that article? See the talk page of the article I mentioned for an example of what I mean. Usually it is very simple, you just add something like {{WikiProject Keyword}} to the article's talk, with keyword replaced by the associated WikiProject (ex. if it's a biography article, you would use WikiProject Biography; if it's a United States article, you would use WikiProject United States, and so on). You do not have to rate the article if you do not want to, others will do it eventually. Those templates are very useful, as they bring the articles to a WikiProject attention, and allow them to start tracking the articles through Wikipedia:Article alerts and other tools. For example, WikiProject Poland relies on such templates to generate listings such as Article Alerts, Popular Pages, Quality and Importance Matrix and the Cleanup Listing. Thanks to them, WikiProject members are more easily able to defend your work from deletion, or simply help try to improve it further. Feel free to ask me any questions if you'd like more information about using those talk page templates. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 15:20, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Good start, hope you like the additions I culled from other articles. Regards Keith-264 (talk) 11:39, 8 May 2016 (UTC).

Hi Keith, thanks for the additions. Glad you like the article. Just one question : why did you leave out the reference to Moltke deviating from the Schlieffen plan ? Something Barbara Tuchman emphasizes strongly in her book "The Guns of August" ? Filiep (talk) 15:05, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

Since Tuchman, the existence of a plan has been questioned never mind what it was. That article in the further reading is quite good on recent thinking and research. Schlieffen Plan has a recent summary (by me) too. Keith-264 (talk) 18:45, 8 May 2016 (UTC)

Query about naming – Louvain or Leuven

Editing Flaithrí Ó Maolchonaire, I see that you modified some wikilinks relating to Leuven and Louvain. I think it's proper to use the page name rather than the name of a redirect, but why not change both to be simple links to Leuven, given that both are intended to refer to the same place? There was no quotation that had to be preserved and in paraphrasing sources we are certainly allowed to make place names consistent within the article. Was there a reason behind your choice that I'm not seeing?  —jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 02:17, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

{Moved back here to keep thread together}

Hi, I would gladly agree with you, but I notice English speakers have difficulties to use Flemish placenames and mostly prefer the French variant. Just see articles on World War I : Ieper - Ypres, Brugge - Bruges, Veurne - Furnes, etc... That's why I left Louvain, although here in Belgium everybody uses Leuven.

Regards

Filiep (talk) 18:50, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

That explains a preference for one or the other but is not an explanation for having one be one way while another instance is the other way. I was hoping for consistency and don't have an opinion about whether Flemish names are difficult for English speakers.  —jmcgnh^{(talk) (contribs)} 21:39, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

Europe 10,000 Challenge invite

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --Ser Amantio di Nicolao^{Che dicono a Signa?}_{Lo dicono a Signa.} 06:08, 6 November 2016 (UTC)

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

• tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
• adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
• updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
• creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible.

Speedy deletion nomination of Carl Rudolf, Duke of Württemberg-Neuenstadt

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing inappropriate pages, such as Carl Rudolf, Duke of Württemberg-Neuenstadt, is not in accordance with our policies.

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.

An article you recently created, Eastern Front (RSFSR), does not have enough sources and citations 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.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Revolt of the Ingrian Finns requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an article with no content whatsoever, or whose contents consist only of external links, a "See also" section, book references, category tags, template tags, interwiki links, images, a rephrasing of the title, a question that should have been asked at the help or reference desks, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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.

May Offensive (1920)

Hi Filiep. I was wondering why, in 2019, you created May Offensive (1920) as a redirect to Eastern Front counteroffensive. The redirect's a puzzling one as the target article doesn't mention a "May Offensive" and is about events in 1919, not 1920. As such, I thought I'd take it to RfD, but also thought I'd ask here first in case I'm missing something and you're able to enlighten me.

Unattributed translations

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from fr:2e division d'infanterie coloniale to 2nd Colonial Infantry Division (France). 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. For example: Content in this edit is translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk pages of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, please add attribution retrospectively for that also, 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. Thank you. Mathglot (talk) 01:35, 28 September 2022 (UTC)

I took a look at your article creations this month (September), and in addition to the article mentioned above, the following articles you created lack the required translation attribution:

• 9th Colonial Infantry Division created 4 September 2022‎
• 14th Infantry Division (France) created 10 September 2022
• 2nd Moroccan Division created 3 September 2022
• 2nd Colonial Infantry Division (France) created 3 September 2022‎
• 9th Colonial Infantry Division created 4 September 2022‎
• 14th Infantry Division (France) created 10 September 2022
• 1st Infantry Division (France) created 11 September 2022 – attribution added; (diff); see below
• Paul-André Doyen created 13 September 2022‎

These articles all need to have the missing attribution added using a dummy edit to include a "repaired insufficient attribution" notice as described at WP:RIA. Note that the attribution you need to add lives in the edit summary and *not* in the article itself. That's why the three articles where you included the words, "This article is translated from French Wikipedia" do not count, and do not satisfy the attribution requirement; it must be in the edit summary, and the way to do that is described at WP:RIA. I fixed one of them up for you, so you can see what it looks like (here).

P.S. I notice that you created numerous articles prior to September, but I didn't check any of those. If any of them are unattributed translations, this notice applies to them as well.

Please take care of adding attributions for any articles that require them as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please {{Reply}} below, or feel free to contact me on my Talk page any time. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 04:33, 28 September 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for these 7 contributions; that takes care of the problem in those articles. Going forward, please follow the wording guideline at WP:TFOLWP or WP:RIA which recommends appending the following: "Please see its history for attribution". Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 11:39, 3 October 2022 (UTC)

Duke of la Vega moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Duke of la Vega, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs 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.

10+ years ago you created that interesting and important article, but it is poorly sourced. Could you work on it? For example, there is an unreferenced important estimate of the total number of deaths ("The estimates of losses among the IMI vary between 37,000 and 50,000"). This is crucial information to source.
