Your submission at Articles for creation: Source of Income Discrimination (March 10)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by AngusWOOF was:
The proposed article does not have sufficient content to require an article of its own, but it could be merged into the existing article at Section 8 (housing). Since anyone can edit Wikipedia, you are welcome to add that information yourself. Thank you.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Homelessness added to US states

You have added data about homelessness to each US state, but the URL provided in your source cited does not link to the data, per WP:CITEWEB, which states: "Please link to URL of specific web page where the referenced content can be found".

If the actual data is found at this URL, could you please go back and add that to your source. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 10:53, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

The data is at https://www.huduser.gov/portal/sites/default/files/pdf/2022-AHAR-Part-1.pdf, but I didn’t know how to cite that, and I figured people would be able to figure it out, since it is the first attachment on the page. Catboy69 (talk) 16:55, 11 March 2023 (UTC)
Actually, the sourced content is found at https://www.huduser.gov/portal/sites/default/files/xls/2007-2022-PIT-Counts-by-State.xlsx. Just go back to your citations and add the correct URL, because your edit is currently not correct. Thanks for your understanding. Magnolia677 (talk) 18:34, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

Open Secrets/donors

Noticed you're going through Congressional articles adding AIPAC contribution amounts based on Open Secrets. I think this is WP:UNDUE. I will be reverting but happy to discuss per WP:BRD -- tagging @Muboshgu and @Marquardtika who may have thoughts one way or the other. Dcpoliticaljunkie (talk) 22:35, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

I don’t feel it’s undue. I added one sentence for each. I am only adding it to representatives’ pages that reference support for Israel without any positive or negative connotation. Arguably we should add donor information regarding other large lobbying groups and industries on their pages, but I wanted to keep it due weight. For about 90% of the pages I edited (not sure the exact amount), AIPAC was their top donor. I think that is important to highlight, even if the phrasing might need tinkering. Catboy69 (talk) 22:45, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
We don't take raw donor data from the FEC/Open Secrets and pick and choose which to highlight (presented in a manner to imply there is a connection between the donation and positions). If there is a connection, we need a (extremely) reliable source saying that they are connected and, even then, I would argue it needs to be attributed. If we want to start adding a candidate's top donors to their articles, there needs to be a wider consensus and needs to happen for all articles, not just for one specific donor. Dcpoliticaljunkie (talk) 22:52, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
I think we should add the top donor to all of their pages. Where would we have that discussion? Catboy69 (talk) 22:56, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Either of the two editors I tagged in my first message would likely have a better idea so I would give them a chance to reply but I would suggest starting an WP:RFC on one of the articles where I undid you (can copy this discussion in). I think you'd have more luck getting consensus to add it to articles about each campaign rather than biographies, though. Dcpoliticaljunkie (talk) 22:59, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Okay I can look into that tomorrow. Catboy69 (talk) 23:02, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Cool. I will keep an eye out but would appreciate a ping when you start the discussion. Cheers! Dcpoliticaljunkie (talk) 23:15, 2 January 2025 (UTC)
Also edits like this (linking Schiff calling Omar's remark "never acceptable" to weaponization of antisemitism) is clearly POV pushing and violates NPOV. Dcpoliticaljunkie (talk) 22:56, 2 January 2025 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thanks for reminding me about the draft else I might have forgot to push it to mainspace before it got autodeleted, and also wanted to thank you for your contribs more broadly regarding your work on housing rights and tenants rights articles. As your already invovled in the project, I might recommend placing them in the new articles section of Wikipedia:WikiProject Housing and Tenant Rights too! Bejakyo (talk) 23:13, 2 June 2025 (UTC)

Recent edits

I'm not aware of a simple/non-annoying way of thanking someone for a whole bunch of edits... besides sending them a message on their talk page, so this is me saying thank you for all your work on Tenant screening as of late :) Viv Desjardin (talk, contrib) 16:57, 12 June 2025 (UTC)

Commodification of housing moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Commodification of housing. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because While this topic might be notable, this article is full of WP:SYNTH. Only the last section is backed up by sources, the rest of the article, commodification is not mentioned once in any of the sources.. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit the draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Onel5969 TT me 14:32, 31 August 2025 (UTC)

A comment about your work-week schedule image

Hello there! I was looking into alternate work day schedules and came across your image contribution to the Six-hour day page. It would appear, however, that your image has eight bars for each comparison, rather than seven! Just wanted to point that out :) Diedie98 (talk) 13:26, 26 November 2025 (UTC)

oh shoot !! thanks! I will fix that Catboy69 (talk) 14:54, 26 November 2025 (UTC)
