Request for Article Review
Hello, there is a conversation going on over at Talk:Instacart about a recent Undisclosed paid tag.

I’m reaching out to you based on your recent involvement in the discussion at Template Talk:Undisclosed paid. Thank you! 76.90.102.132 (talk) 23:59, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

Reinhold Aman
Hello, Pigsonthewing. I'm a bit confused about this edit of yours. There seems to be longstanding precedent to list editors who were not particularly prolific on Wikipedia but famous in real life—namely, Roger Ebert (Rebert). I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts. —Psychonaut (talk) 12:12, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- No such precedent exists. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:13, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- In that case, what do you see as the substantive difference between the two cases? —Psychonaut (talk) 12:16, 12 November 2020 (UTC)
- Well for a start, Ebert's edits weren't wholly autobiographical; they constituted more than 139 characters in article space, and they did not introduce citations like
<ref>Information supplied by Reinhold Aman</ref>
. But if you wish to purse this further, start a talk page discussion and see if there is consensus for your addition. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 12:25, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Klaas' cuckoo song
Hi Andy, I've been looking around on xeno-canto for a nice recording of the characteristic "maiki-maiki" call. There's a fine collection [4], but as far as I can see all but two of these are licensed as BY-NC-SA (the two BY-SA ones are pretty bad). I don't have much experience uploading sound recordings to Commons, but if I understand correctly that's not a usable license for our purposes? --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 19:08, 15 November 2020 (UTC)
- Elmidae You're correct; the "NC" clause precludes their use. You can always contact the uploader and ask them to reconsider. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 19:11, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

Kukur Tihar
Hello, I hope you don't mind me contacting you, but the user Elizium23 continues to disruptively edit the article Kukur Tihar, having just removed a large tract of cited material from the body of the text. I have reversed it, but I fully expect they will return and continue to edit war. You have also reversed some of their editing. Do you think they should be reported? I would have no idea how to do that.86.56.23.178 (talk) 08:05, 17 November 2020 (UTC)
- Follow the process at WP:DR. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 08:56, 17 November 2020 (UTC)

Many thanks for your recent edits. A relatively painless progression to FA this time, if only because the sources are limited Jimfbleak - talk to me? 16:10, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
- @Jimfbleak: And thank you for the great job you did on it. It would be good to get a high-res copy of the painting. We have several versions, BTW. See also edit summary here. Did you see [8]? Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 16:40, 20 November 2020 (UTC)
