I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi RevelationDirect. Thank you for your work on YMCA Building (San Diego). Another editor, Aszx5000, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

{{Bq|1=Nicely constructed article - why are you not autopatrolled? thanks.}}

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{code|{{Re|Aszx5000}}}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

:{{Re|Aszx5000}} I don't mind the scrutiny but would that save other editors time? If so, how do I apply to become autopatrolled? - RevelationDirect (talk) 14:55, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

::For editors who are definitely at the standard - and the articles you are creating at at that standard - it is far more efficient that they are autopatrolled, which you can ask for here (you will see I pointed User:Pdebee there yesterday for the same reasons).

::Also, you should think about WP:DYKNOM which is a very nice way of further validating new articles (you get 7 days to put your new article to DYK), which is another good validation of your editing :) best regards Aszx5000 (talk) 15:27, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

File:Wikipedia Autopatrolled.svg

Hi RevelationDirect, I just wanted to let you know that I have [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&page=User%3ARevelationDirect added] the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Elli (talk | contribs) 13:24, 20 June 2024 (UTC)

Sugar industry

Is there any reason in particular why most sugar industry categories are at Sugar industry of Foo rather than Sugar industry in Foo? The latter would be more consistent with most other industry categories, e.g. those under :Category:Automotive industry by country and :Category:Petroleum industry by country. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:55, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

:Sure, while not all of the categories have a main article, without exception the ones that do use "of" including Sugar industry of India, Sugar industry of the United States, and Sugar industry of Cuba. If those main articles were renamed in an RM, I'd of course favor speedy renaming all the corresponding categories per WP:C2D. (Substantively, I have no preference for "of" versus "in" though.) - RevelationDirect (talk) 16:41, 2 November 2024 (UTC)

A cup of tea for you!

  • Who are the most overlooked and interesting Women in Red? We've no idea,
    but we're putting together our list of the 100 most interesting ex-Women in Red.
    We are creating the list to celebrate 10 years of Women in Red and we hope to present it at Wikimania.
    We are ignoring the obvious, so do you have a name or subject we should consider?
    Can you suggest a DYK style hook?
    If you are shy about editing that page, you are welcome to add ideas and comments on the talk page.
