From Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

Dear Silva, I have been trying to remove some of the "This page needs additional sources" templates and have forgotten how to do it.That template is unfortunately present on many articles that now have dozens of sources. I think what happens is that early on somebody puts it up, but mostly - once it goes up, nobody ever takes it down. Depending on how perfectionist a scholar tends to be concerning the number of excellent sources required for any article, the statement that "this article requires additional sources" may be thought to apply to ANY article, no matter how many, no matter how excellent the quality. How can we Wikipedians program a robot to remove the template? Or must each one be removed manually? I would think that the factors important in removing the template might be 1. date it was placed. In other words, how long has it been there? 2. How many sources were present when the template was placed, let's call that (number of sources at template placement) - as compared to number of sources now present. If the number now is reasonable large as compared to the number at placement, and the notice is old, let it be removed. There is still the opportunity for a reader to add the template at any time.

Invite to the African Destubathon[edit]

Hi. You may be interested in participating in the African Destubathon which starts on October 15. Africa currently has over 37,000 stubs and badly needs a quality improvement editathon/contest to flesh out basic stubs. There are proposed substantial prizes to give to editors who do the most articles, and planned smaller prizes for doing to most destubs for each of the 53 African countries, so should be enjoyable! So it would be a good chance to win something for improving stubs on African sportspeople, including footballers, athletes, Olympians and Paralympians etc, particularly female ones, but also male. Even if contests aren't your thing we would be grateful if you could consider destubbing a few African articles during the drive to help the cause and help reduce the massive 37,000 + stub count, of which many are rated high importance (think Regions of countries etc). If you're interested in competing or just loosely contributing a few expanded articles on African Paralympians, Olympians and committees etc, please add your name to the Contestants/participants section. Diversity of work from a lot of people will make this that bit more special. Thanks. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:12, 6 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
