Hi Cukie Gherkin. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page or ask via the NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:

• Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
• You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
• If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
• Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Steps such as checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline are mandatory and will take a few minutes per article.
• Please review some of our flowcharts (1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any required steps.
• Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. ~~

I'd prefer to resolve this dispute here rather than start an edit war. I see you recently made some large changes the page Miles Edgeworth. I reverted some of these edits and cut the last paragraph because I felt it was needlessly long and in-depth (half of the paragraph consists of one writer's personal thoughts) while at the same time citing only a single source of questionable reliability. I also felt that the edits came across as a bit unprofessional, particularly with the use of ship names. All this comes across as giving the Edgeworth/Phoenix relationship undue weight (see WP:WEIGHT).

I think it is a fair compromise to limit the Inverse sourcing to Takumi's own comments on the relationship. At the very least, the last paragraph should be slimmed down and rewritten with a more professional tone.

I'd like to stress, I'm not trying to start a fire, I just want to make sure the article remains professional and impartial. ThanatosApprentice (talk) 20:04, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do not understand the perspective that anything in the text is unprofessional. That ship names do not belong on Wikipedia is not something I believe has merit. and to me is no more or less unprofessional as discussing the ship to begin with. The paragraph touches upon three things:

1. The ship as it relates to other non-canon ships in terms of "indicators" of potential romance;
2. Analysis of their relationship, whether read romantically or platonically, as different from a typical relationship in video games at a time between two men;
3. Analysis of why people latch onto ships like this. This could perhaps be trimmed down.

With Stenger, it can be argued that as a game designer, particularly a narrative designer, she serves as an WP:SME. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 20:13, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I still feel that the last paragraph is disproportionately long given its singular source and could be summarized much more succinctly. I think the best solution is to combine all commentary on romantic interpretations into a single succinct paragraph to give it more weight and make the reception section more cohesive. There are two sections cited by the more reliable San Francisco Chronicle and TechRadar that would fold in well there.

I also think that the term "fan pairing" is more professional than "ship", but it's not a major issue for me. I don't think the term "Narumitsu" is notable to be mentioned in the lead, and in any case the name "Wrightworth" is more commonly used from what I've seen.

I've implemented the above changes. Feel free to raise make changes to any of my cuts, though keep in mind that I tried to keep them minimal as not to make the paragraph too long. ThanatosApprentice (talk) 21:45, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanks for all your efforts reviewing good article nominations! Just a reminder to list the article at the Good Articles page once you're done, too. I often use User:Novem Linguae/Scripts/GANReviewTool which stops me from missing a step! Adabow (talk) 07:44, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Adabow: Oh, my bad, I always assumed that there was an automatic bot that did that, haha. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 16:24, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I wish to ask if you know about Three Houses and Three Hopes? Jayaltwriter2004! (talk) 03:07, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Y-yeah? - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 03:08, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm glad you do. I'm actually trying to do something about the character sheet. As you may have notice, the sheet of the characters looks a bit messy. So I'm trying to fix it up. I have already made the new and improved changes on my sandbox, and I was hoping to ask if you can help aid in my contribution on fixing the character sheet. Jayaltwriter2004!
