Improving health vital articles

Hello,

I noticed you said you were looking to improve those articles. There are a lot of omissions, but you mentioned more technical proposals. I'm a bit interested in public health as a side focus, so I wanted to reach out and see what you're thinking about on those. GeogSage ^{(⚔Chat?⚔)} 02:30, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

By technical proposals, I meant the kind of scientific articles that would be proposed on the talk subpage for STEM articles. These kinds of proposals seem to get participants more slowly than proposals on the Society or People pages. I have been working to make these proposals to improve the list, but it has been slow, since I don't want to overwhelm the page with too many of my own proposals at once. I would certainly appreciate help in getting the Health section up to the quota. QuicoleJR (talk) 11:48, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That makes sense. Yeah its really no surprise that people are more interested in people and such then more technical concepts. I'll try to vote more on those and see if there are any that should be preposed. GeogSage ^{(⚔Chat?⚔)} 06:16, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I voted on a lot of stuff for level five that should be able to be closed. I don't actually know how to close stuff on there, or add something to the list. Something to look into learning. Anyway, if you find anything that needs to be added feel free to ping me and if I agree (probably more likely then not if its medical) then I'll try to vote and move things along. GeogSage ^{(⚔Chat?⚔)} 16:31, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Wouldn't pinging you be canvassing? QuicoleJR (talk) 18:56, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Idk? I wouldn't vote for something I don't agree with but it might look bad you're right. I'll just try to check there more. GeogSage ^{(⚔Chat?⚔)} 00:51, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good. QuicoleJR (talk) 13:33, 23 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, joy.

Bah. At this rate they're making games faster than I can write an article about them. Panini! • 🥪 02:36, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pokémon Smile

Would you mind if I did some work on Pokémon Smile to prepare it for a potential GAN? It's a pretty small topic to begin with (A search yields mostly just news hits and reviews) but I feel there's definitely enough to improve it from its current state. I figured I'd ask in case you want to do the work and improve it yourself, given you created the page. If you'd like to hit it up instead, I can share the sources I found during my search so you don't have to do the work for that. If you are fine with me hitting up the article instead, would you like to be listed as co-nom if the article's in a state where a GAN is possible? Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 22:59, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pokelego999: I would love to take the article to Good Article status. This would be my first GA, so I would certainly appreciate your help. QuicoleJR (talk) 00:14, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@QuicoleJR grabbed basically everything I could find.

Reviews: [1][2]

Announcements: [3][4][5][6]

Miscellaneous: [7][8] (These two aren't reviews but are still technically opinion pieces) [9] (Can't see content due to paywall but it's a big source so) [10] (Opinion piece)

Update Info: [11][12][13]

Release: [14]

Coverage is a bit sparse and some of this may be repetitive, which is why I'm a bit cautious about the GA potential here. I think it's got a shot here, but it definitely depends on how much can be gleaned out of the opinion pieces. Gonna be a smaller end article, but perusing these sources should be quick. Paywalled source is annoying, so if it can't be accessed it's whatever, but it's worthwhile to save on the talk page if it doesn't pan out.

Hopefully this helps. I wish there was some dev info, but coverage on this game is light. Best of luck! Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 01:10, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"in future" vs "in the future" in open letter

Hi QuicoleJR -- Is this some UK vs US thing? In future reads much better to me. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 01:31, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, it's a regional difference. I actually didn't know that British English dropped the "the" until now. QuicoleJR (talk) 01:35, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. The extra "the" feels very clunky to me, especially given that "the future" repeats in the next sentence. The letter has a weird history, as I drafted it (Brit) in a hurry, based on frankensteining writing from several different editors from all over the place, but honestly I think we're best just leaving the wording alone now that people are trying to sign. It was always going to be quick and dirty rather than long and polished given that our aim is to get a weight of signatures by the 8th, ie today! Espresso Addict (talk) 01:49, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. As a Canadian, both sound all right, but in this case I thought "in future" sounded smoother. Cremastra (u — c) 22:26, 8 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
