Hi! I submitted Chris Van Pelt as a new page on wikipedia. You said that you felt it needed more references so I added some. I hope this is sufficient? I have never submitted a new wikipedia page so please let me know what else I can do, and I'm sorry if I'm not following the proper process. Thanks!

== WikiProject Report UK ==
Hi, Following your note at [[Wikipedia talk:WikiProject United Kingdom]] I can do this if you tell me what is required.— [[User:Rodw|Rod]] <sup>[[User talk:Rodw|talk]]</sup> 19:30, 23 November 2018 (UTC)
:{{u|Rodw}}, thanks! If you wouldn't mind taking a second and filling out the questions [[User:ProgrammingGeek/WikiProject Report/Interviews/WikiProject United Kingdom|here]], I'd appreciate it! Thanks, [[User:ProgrammingGeek|'''<span style="color:Green">Programming</span><span style="color:Orange">Geek</span>''']][[User talk:ProgrammingGeek|<sup><span style="color:Green"> talk</span><span style="color:Orange">to</span>me</sup>]] 03:48, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
== Closing RFC ==
Hi, you misunderstood Roberts intention,
he argued to close the discussion in the NPOV notice board (80 km long discussion) with no consensus, not that RFC with two maps, where we voted the map to be included to the article and everybody accepted it finally (anyway the majority voted yes for inclusion, without any doubt, only two were no, (7-2) but they have to accept the community decision, so it cannot be no consensus). Recently, discussions were only made about what we should write in text under it (the illegitimate trials of the disruptive editor by WP:AN3 was discussed and finally we did not had to took the case into the ANI). Check please also recent edits and the discussions, only the text under was modifided recently, but it has no connection to the inclusion of the map. Please correct your mistake ASAP. This you should have been closed: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Neutral_point_of_view/Noticeboard#Origin_of_the_Romanians_Article]. Thanks([[User:KIENGIR|KIENGIR]] ([[User talk:KIENGIR|talk]]) 22:02, 26 November 2018 (UTC))
: "The discussion at NPOVN appears to be just going on and on, and I would suggest that it be closed as No Consensus."
: "Please have the discussion at NPOVN closed as No Consensus"
-> This were what Robert referred, not the RFC Two maps, where the inlcusion was accepted!!([[User:KIENGIR|KIENGIR]] ([[User talk:KIENGIR|talk]]) 22:05, 26 November 2018 (UTC))
::Thank you for closing the RfC. I would also like to understand why you concluded that there was no consensus, taking into account that seven editors supported the proposal and only two editors opposed it. [[User:Borsoka|Borsoka]] ([[User talk:Borsoka|talk]]) 01:14, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
:::{{reply to|Borsoka|KIENGIR}} closure reverted. Apologies.

:::::Thank you for your action. I wonder why did not you choose to close it properly? I mean in accordance with the opinion of the vast majority of the editors. [[User:Borsoka|Borsoka]] ([[User talk:Borsoka|talk]]) 04:48, 27 November 2018 (UTC)
::::::ProgrammingGeek, thank you, of course! As per [[User:Borsoka|Borsoka]]'s next question, I would ask the same...
::::::I'd say a proper closure would be like "The result was for the map inclusion, regarding the text written under it mostly people agreed on the version "Earliest mentions of Romanian settlements in official documents in the Kingdom of Hungary (between 1200 and 1400)" which may be expanded by another consensus" or similar.([[User:KIENGIR|KIENGIR]] ([[User talk:KIENGIR|talk]]) 12:46, 27 November 2018 (UTC))
== Talk:Mike Onoja ==
({{Ping|ProgrammingGeek}})
Hi, please this is my first time on talk page. Pardon me if i make any mistake concerning the rules.
I've been trying to publish the above article for sometime now but unfortunately, it has been rejected twice. The later rejection been that the source of the information(reference) on some activities and information of the subject wasn't provided, and where there is no available reference, such information should be removed from the article.
My reason for not referencing the information you highlighted was that majority of the details I used was from the subject's autobiography of which i thought the continuous use of the same source would not look good. I however discovered that I can insert page numbers in the reference if I'am using a particular source frequently. I'am hoping this should solve the problem and enable my article to be published. I have however referenced the various parts you requested for the source of information, but i am yet to resubmit it. Kindly advice on the best way to go about the article if there is any other correction i should make before resubmitting.
Thank you

== Up for Signpost-Article Questions ==
Hi there,
Big Signpost fan and more than happy to answer questions (if you're happy to have someone who only started AfC reviewing in the latter days of ACTRIAL), so felt I should reply.
[[User:Nosebagbear|Nosebagbear]] ([[User talk:Nosebagbear|talk]]) 19:40, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
:{{u|Nosebagbear}}, brilliant. Answer the questions [[User:ProgrammingGeek/WikiProject Report/Interviews/WikiProject Articles for Creation#Nosebagbear|here]] at your leisure -- I might add more questions later, I'll ping you if I do.

::{{u|ProgrammingGeek}} - cheers, I've answered most of the questions, I'll do the rest in the next day or two. By "new contributor" do you mean someone new to Wikipedia or new to AfC? [[User:Nosebagbear|Nosebagbear]] ([[User talk:Nosebagbear|talk]]) 22:07, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
:::{{u|Nosebagbear}}, New to AfC -- I'll clarify that in the question. Also, I'm asking people to have their responses in by December 20, but you wouldn't have seen that as you're the first respondant.

== New page reviewer granted ==
[[File:Wikipedia New page reviewer.svg|right|80px]]
Hi ProgrammingGeek. Your account has been added to the "<code>New page reviewers</code>" user group. Minor user rights can now be accorded on a time limited or probationary period, so do check back at [[WP:PERM/NPR]] in case this concerns your application. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as [[meta:Help:Patrolled edit|patrolled]], tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the [[Special:NewPagesFeed|'''New Pages Feed''']]. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encylopedia. If you have not already done so, you '''must''' read the tutorial at [[Wikipedia:New pages patrol|New Pages Review]], the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the [[Wikipedia:Deletion policy|deletion policy]]. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the [[Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers|'''new page reviewer talk page''']]. In addition, please remember:
*[[Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers|Be nice to new editors]]. They are [[WP:AGF|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. 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.

Hello {{ping|ProgrammingGeek}}, Although my sandbox was not yet intended to be moved live, thanks anyway for [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Cardano_(cryptocurrency_platform)&offset=&limit=500&action=history moving it].
