Articles are typically reviewed for two weeks. If substantial concerns are not addressed during the review period, the article will be moved to the Featured Article Removal Candidates list for a further period, where editors may declare "Keep" or "Delist" in regards to the article's featured status.

The European Destubathon

Project members are invited to participate in The European Destubathon in April. Almost $3000 in Amazon voucher prizes, including a prize for articles from your project, which can be used to buy books for content, though it can also be treated as an editathon if you're not interested in competing! Minimum content to be added to each article just to ensure that they're over a stub, though longer expansions also welcome. Entries at the end of the contest will be tipped into the 50,000 Destubbing Challenge and European Challenge. Previous contests were really enjoyable and I'm hoping this one will be too! Sign up if interested. Thanks! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:55, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion at WP:AN re: speedy deletion of articles created by a banned user

Several Italy-related articles were started by 1971asif's sockpuppets after 1971asif was blocked. They appear at first glance to be possibly worth keeping and improving:

There's a discussion as to whether these and any other of 1971asif's articles should be speedily deleted per WP:G5 ("Creations by banned or blocked users, or in violation of general sanctions").

Does any of these look like worthwhile articles to you?

Thanks, A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 20:39, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Italian Figure Skating Championships

Buona sera! I am working on this article and there are still several years that are unsourced. Can anyone recommend perhaps a newspaper archive that can be searched? My Italian is passable, so I don't mind doing the search in Italian. My goal is to eventually have this article promoted to Featured List status. Thank you so much for any help you may be able to provide! Bgsu98 (Talk) 22:39, 31 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Fabricated citations, possibly AI-generated, in content by User:Vineviz

I found several citations by Vineviz (talk · contribs) in Old Latium, both in the article and within talk page discussion, which failed my attempted verification. I suspect they were AI-generated, although they were problematic regardless of how they were created. I raised these concerns at Talk:Old Latium two weeks ago, which Vineviz, who had become inactive, did not reply to. I reverted Vineviz's edits to that article.

I fear that serious issues are in other material created by the same editor, who in March–April edited a lot of content related to Italy, primarily ancient Italy. (Example: Ancient settlements of the Liri Valley, where I am unable to find some sources cited.)

Do you think this assessment is correct? If so, please help clean up as much as possible. Adumbrativus (talk) 09:08, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I've cleaned up this user's ai generated contributions and warned them on their talk page, it should be all clean now. Psychastes (talk) 16:53, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
