Thank you. Funningly enough, I've just researched how and when to use quotes. I've fixed the missing citation that you removed, so we should be good. Keironoshea (talk) 10:13, 8 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Tony Holkham: thank you. I am currently in the middle of reading Welshmen in the Spanish Civil War by Hywel Francis and will come back soon to add more citations. Keironoshea (talk) 21:31, 11 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]

Hi - a quick note about this, Rhondda Sports Centre. For me there are a few issues with the article:

  • Tone - Wikipedia doesn't exist to promote things, and a promotional phrase like "Rhondda Sports Centre stands as a beacon of fitness and well-being in the heart of Gelligaled Park, offering a diverse range of facilities tailored to meet the needs of its community" shouldn't be used:
  • Copyright - moreover, it's a Copyright Violation (CV) as it is a direct lift from the source which says, "Rhondda Sports Centre stands as a beacon of fitness and well-being in the heart of Geligaled Park, offering a diverse range of facilities tailored to meet the needs of its community". There is the same problem with Source 3 and Source 6. As explained above, you can't copy blocks of text from other sources and post them on Wikipedia. They need to be redrafted in your own words;
  • Sourcing - We need to use Reliable Sources that are independent of the subject. Sources 2, 3, 7 aren't reliable, and 4, 5, 6 aren't independent. So you really only have one source;
  • Notability - With only one source, which actually covers the history of the site, not the centre, I don't think the Notability requirements are met. You really need a minimum of 2/3 reliable, independent sources.

Hope these suggestions are helpful. The article certainly needs a re-write/better sourcing. KJP1 (talk) 09:33, 11 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there,
Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such detailed and constructive feedback on the Rhondda Sports Centre article. This was actually the first Wikipedia page I've created, and I've learnt an enormous amount over the past couple of days.
You were absolutely right on all points:
Tone & Copyright: I've completely rewritten the article to remove all promotional language and copyright violations. The "beacon of fitness" phrase and other lifted text have been replaced with neutral, encyclopaedic content written in my own words.
Sourcing: I've removed all the unreliable sources (business directories, venue booking sites, etc.) and non-independent sources (council websites, promotional materials). The article now uses only reliable, independent sources.
Notability: I've managed to find additional sources, including a local history book by John May ("Rhondda 1203-2003: The Story of the Two Valleys") and coverage from Sports Management Magazine about the £6 million refurbishment. This has helped me to establish proper historical context and demonstrate the significance beyond just being a routine leisure centre.
The article is now much improved and focuses on the historical development from the 1930s Miners' Welfare Fund lido through to the 1975 £1 million sports centre and 2008 major refurbishment, all properly sourced and written neutrally.
Thank you for your patience with a newcomer! Keironoshea (talk) Keironoshea (talk) 21:13, 11 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment rationales

[edit]

Helo, thank you for conducting assessments on various articles. I appreciate the effort, but as assessments are naturally subjective to the editor (some projects may be more strict with them, but most are largely the same) as long as you followed the criteria faithfully and the rating can be justified then just rate it and move onto the next one.

For the rationales, just leave the ones you've written up so far, in the end you spent the effort and appreciate that! The rationales aren't wrong, but most of the time editors don't write them, unless the/your assessment has been disputed. Although it can be seen as potentially praise and encouragement for any new articles made by new editors so not a bad thing. Plus your rationales may raise good points on how to improve the article! If you wish to remove them though, as long as no one has commented on it (so not at Talk:Net World Sports) then you can self-revert, but there is no actual issue with it, just that there's no need to spend so much time on them in most cases.

Once again, nothing wrong with writing rationales, but they're not really done and well there is so much more of everything else to do! Diolch. DankJae 22:33, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@DankJae I'm both happy that I don't have to do them and disappointed at the time I wasted writing them! I'll bullet point my reasoning and if anyone asks about an assessment I'll be ready to respond. thank you for your patience. Keironoshea (talk) 22:37, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
There is always a backlog of assessments, so the first priority is to rate them (which you have done! thanks), and make sure existing articles have had their assessments updated if they've been re-written. Of course the only time you do have to provide some sort of rationale (or discuss it) is for the highest ratings, A-class, Good Article-class and Featured Article-class. Anything B-class below is really less strict and subjective of an editor. DankJae 22:44, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Neil Kinnock, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Norman Hogg and Derek Foster. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Duncan Ferguson

[edit]

Hi Keironoshea. I ran across Duncan Ferguson (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) and am wondering if it would be best if all your recent edits to it were rolled back given the numerous poor sources. Do you have time to review all the sources you used against WP:RSP and WP:RSN, and remove all that are not up to WP:BLP criteria? --Hipal (talk) 21:06, 25 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the notice. I've taken a look and many of the 'poor' references that were in there existed prior to my work. I have, as of now, fixed many of them barre one YouTube source that upon listening did seem to cover what was said in the direct quotation. It wasn't my work, but I feel like it added a substantive element to the article given Ferguson's personality at the time. Thanks for your patience, but wanted to make sure I did it well.

Closing an AfD

[edit]

Hi there, I saw your recent AfD where you intended to withdraw and didn't know how - you may be interested in installing Wikipedia:XFDcloser. Makes this easy.

By the way, thanks for volunteering at AfC (I'm about to accept your request). I was intrigued to see that you had such an old account, and was wondering what motivation brought you back to the project after so long away. A worthy one, I think. Not terribly unlike my own. You may be interested in joining WP:@, a small and close-knit wikiproject where you'd be very welcome. Cheers. -- asilvering (talk) 20:51, 29 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You disrespect the dead, you keep breaking copyright laws.

What in the flip is wrong with you, son?

You definitely went on r/wikipedia, to find articles to vandalize. We know people like you.

But vandalizing articles of a dead person. That is disgusting of you, you should be ashamed of yourself. Shrekipedia69 (talk) 19:39, 6 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, what? Keironoshea (talk) 19:41, 6 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Javier Polo article is not primary but secondary websites, newspapers that explain he is the president of a National Association, regional government websites as Xunta de Galicia referring to the prizes he won, and others. 83.52.38.125 (talk) 12:01, 9 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
