Creating a bot to identify out-of-date information in Wikipedia entries[edit]
There are a mass of entries in English and Chinese Wikipedia that include out-of-date facts or references. And there are some existed software tools or algorithms relative to natural language pattern matching to solve this problem. We would like to measure the usefulness of these tools and algorithms and create a new bot to identify those information based on the result of measurement. During the work of measuring existed tools and testing the new bot, we will try to collect abundant Wikipedia entries and create some new cases. And the modular software can be used by Wikireview and other contributors of Wikipedia.
URL of detailed proposal is here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:IdeaLab/Searching_for_out-of-date_information_in_wikipedias
Please give us your advice in the discussion board of the proposal: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants_talk:IdeaLab/Searching_for_out-of-date_information_in_wikipedias

There is no proof but TV images that this person walked on the Moon. This article must be considered incomplete and must have different sources to approve this fact. Madovsky (talk) 17:04, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Madovsky, welcome to Wikipedia. This is not the right place to place this notice; it belongs on the talk page of the article. Can you please reply below what lead you to this page? I've seen others incorrectly place this notice here and I'd like to know what led them here. Best, Prhartcom (talk) 17:31, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Cricket and baseball[edit]
Hello. These two sports should be having separate listings under "Sport and recreation". I have completed a split in the article listings page but cannot access the index page where there is the "baseball and cricket" entry. The icon used in the article listing was a football, which is obviously in error, so I have inserted baseball and cricket ball icons in new listings. Thank you. Regards, Naz | talk | contribs 06:48, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
My apologies, I was not looking far enough and have found the right page now. The change has been made. You have incorrect icons for all sports and I will try to be rectifying this. Thank you. Regards, Naz | talk | contribs 06:53, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
Notice to participants at this page about adminship[edit]
Many participants here create a lot of content, decide if content complies with BLP policy, and much more. Well, these are just some of the considerations at Wikipedia:Requests for adminship.
So, please consider taking a look at and watchlisting this page:
You could be very helpful in evaluating potential candidates, and maybe even finding out if you would be a suitable RfA candidate.
Many thanks and best wishes,

Lesbian[edit]
I see that within "Culture, sociology, and psychology" articles, the article Lesbian is listed under "ethnic groups". It should be moved somewhere else, perhaps to "Culture and cultural studies". Lesbians are not an ethnic group. FreeKnowledgeCreator (talk) 07:38, 29 June 2016 (UTC)
