Additions to German Wikipedia

Hi Tymewalk, I'm working on publishing Bottega Veneta from English to German. I am wondering if you have time to help me out. I found your username on Wikiproject:Germany and saw that you're fluent in both English and German. I have a paid COI regarding Bottega Veneta, but my main concern here is ensuring that the information available in English is available and up to date in German as well. I have a translated version of the article on my colleague’s Sandbox. Would you mind reviewing it for accuracy as well as its compliance with Wikipedia guidelines? Thanks!--Chefmikesf (talk) 23:59, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

Hi Chefmikesf. I appreciate the offer, but I'm certainly not fluent in German, and wouldn't be able to help with what you're looking for. Good luck with your project, though! Tymewalk (talk) 00:31, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Bering Standard Time was blanked and redirected to UTC−11:00

The page Bering Standard TimeBering Standard Time has been blanked and redirected to UTC−11:00 after its proposed deletion was declined by reasoning of redirects as an alternative to deletion. As you nominated the article to be deleted via WP:PROD, you may wish to restore the page contents and nominate it for a full deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion.

Thanks for looking into the page, I didn't see that NYT article while trying to find out if the timezone was ever used. Tymewalk (talk) 13:06, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

No worries. Finding that NYT article was dumb luck on my end. I was trying to find a citation for when Alaska changed its time zones from 4 to 2 after reading about that elsewhere, but not at a source of whose reliability I was assured, which led me to that article. I wasn't able to find the article while searching for the term "Bering Standard Time" itself on google, only through that weird path I took above. TartarTorte 13:20, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

I did some digging and it looks like the timezone has also been called "Bering Sea Time", which appears in the NYT article. There's not many web results for either name of the timezone (and I think a lot of "Bering Standard Time" pages copied Wikipedia), but old newspapers seem to refer to both "Bering Sea Time" as well as "Bering Standard Time". I haven't been able to find any definitive sources as to which one is correct or preferred, but both seem to have been in use to refer to UTC-11 at some point. Tymewalk (talk) 03:52, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

I noticed that as well. I've just created Bering Sea TimeBering Sea Time and targeted it to UTC−11:00 as well with an {{R avoided double redirect|Bering Standard Time}} to show the link between the two. TartarTorte 12:24, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

Mariamnei (talk) 10:12, 29 April 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Mariamnei:, thanks for reviewing my articles. I'm replying to both the articles for Yemen and Zimbabwe here, as IMHO notability is the same for both.

These are articles for a particular nation's performance at a sporting event, in this case the 2020 Summer Paralympics. While Yemen and Zimbabwe did not win any medals at these Games, other such articles exist even when nations do not win a medal - for example Zimbabwe at the 2024 Summer Paralympics and Liberia at the 2020 Summer Paralympics. I believe my articles are notable for the same reason that these are (or, in a more general case, any similar article for a country at a sporting event like the Olympics). This also seems to line up with the guidelines at WP:NOLYMPICS, which say Significant coverage is likely to exist for nations participating at an individual Summer or Winter Olympic or Paralympic Games. Tymewalk (talk) 19:20, 29 April 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your response. I am not an expert in sports, but regarding your first point, please see WP:OTHER. Regarding WP:NOLYMPICS, it says that significant coverage is likely to exist; you should still establish the notability. If there's something in policy that I've missed, please feel free to write to me. Thanks and have a great day! Mariamnei (talk) 05:22, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

June 2026

Before adding a category to an eponymous category, as you did at Category:UpShot League, please make sure that the category is appropriate under Wikipedia's categorization guidelines and is consistent with WP:EPONYMOUS.

An eponymous category is a category named after a subject that contains pages associated with that subject. For example, an eponymous category about a person, place, organization, or work may contain articles about related people, events, works, history, or other topics connected with that subject, not just the main article itself.

Because of that, adding a category to an eponymous category means that the added category should make sense for the contents of the eponymous category as a whole, not just for the subject it is named after. In general, the added category should apply to all or nearly all of the pages in the eponymous category.

For example, a category such as establishments in YEAR may apply to the subject itself, but usually will not apply to every page in the eponymous category, so it is usually not appropriate to add it there. Please also make sure that any category you add already exists. Categories that do not meet these requirements may be removed. Thank you. ^SMason_Garrison 14:11, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

About your contribution in 'Regions of Peru'...

Thank you so much for adding back the flag of Ica! The previous user who upload it got all their files deleted because most of their contributions were only hoaxes.

Organized Labour September Editing Event

You're invited to join the Organized Labour community editing event, a cross-wiki event taking place throughout September 2026!

The campaign brings together Wikimedians interested in improving coverage of organised labour, workers, trade unions, and labour history. We have confirmed collaborations with Wikipedia language editions in English, Dutch, Persian, Serbo-Croatian and French. If you want to add other language editions or other wiki projects you are strongly encouraged to do so! This event spans geography and languages!

This is a one-time invitation. You're receiving it because you previously signed a petition related to Wiki Workers United (WWU). We hope you'll join us!

Jessie Sanders

Hey, this is a great new article, but I am concerned that the later biography and obituary are incorrect when they say she attended Arizona State University. I have a number of sources—one from 1932, one from 1948, and one from 1972 — that say she attended the University of Arizona. (And I found one more from 1929.) As a paid editor for ASU, let me reinforce that they are not the same thing.

I am inclined to believe this. While she was a teacher and it's believable she attended the then-Tempe Normal School, Arizona State was not a university in name until 1958 or in structure until 1955. Until then, there was one university in Arizona, the University of Arizona. Melted Brie^ASU (onward to victory · t · c) 06:18, 21 August 2026 (UTC)

@Melted Brie: Thank you for catching this! The Biographical Directory of the South Dakota Legislature incorrectly says "Arizona State University", and it's the only source that does so. I used it to start the article and forgot to double-check once I had more sources (even the newspaper sources I used when writing said "University of Arizona", so definitely an oversight on my part). I just updated the page now with the correct info. Tymewalk (talk) 22:23, 21 August 2026 (UTC)

Direct, reliable sources needed for Days of the Year pages

You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages now require direct reliable sources for additions. For details see the content guideline, the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide or the edit notice on any DOY page. Almost all new additions without a reliable source as a reference are now being reverted on-sight.

Please do not add new additions to these pages without direct sources as the burden to provide them is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages.

Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 23:54, 4 September 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. I do have reliable sources for the dates of birth of the people I added, so I'll add those to the article alongside their listing. Tymewalk (talk) 00:07, 5 September 2026 (UTC)

Yeah, the Days of the Years (DOTY) pages were becoming a complete mess with incorrect and unverifiable info so things have changed so that all new entries require a direct source.

The DOTY project had exempted themselves from verifiability. As a result, almost none of the pages had any sources to back things up, based on the naive (and against Wikipedia policy) belief that all entries would be backed by reliable sources in the linked article. It turns out that was not the case and the DOTY pages were filled with incorrect info and even worse, other places started believing the info there and publishing the incorrect info in newspapers, for example on "Today's date in history" type listings (classic WP:CITOGENESIS).

So a few years ago the DOTY project took the bold step of requiring that all new entries be backed by direct reliable sources. Several of us have gone through and started cleaning things up. May 11 is an example of where we want to be. For details see the content guideline, the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide or the edit notice on any DOY page.

We could use your help in:

1. Preventing new entries that don't include direct sources and when they occur, either supplement them with a reliable source or reverting them.
2. Helping us clean up articles. The project members have asked all participants to go through their birthday and clean the entries up by adding reliable sources to each entry, or removing entries where reliable sources aren't readily available.

I hope this helps and keep up the great work! Toddst1 (talk) 00:32, 5 September 2026 (UTC)
