TolBot Task 8 for NPP Drive

I’m pretty sure that I can handle the confit writing but the page creation is limited to administrators and presumably TolBot, so if I just write the config, would you be able to create it, also is there anything else that needs doing to make TolBot work? The config is all that I see but if there’s anything on your side that needs doing, please let me know. Thanks, | Zippybonzo | Talk | 11:32, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Zippybonzo, I can handle the config file (config format may change as I tweak the bot code), but thanks! Most of my work is improving the bot code, which should be finished within a week. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 22:59, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Task TolBot 5 on zhwiki

Hi Tol, noticed your bot request for updating Template:COVID-19 data/data among several projects, thanks a lot for your effort! Just wondering would you like to run the same task on zhwiki for updating the same JSON page? If you have interest doing so, I could help you fill a bot task request on BRFA page. Thanks!

Sure, @Stang! I can speak a bit of Chinese, so I think I can navigate the BRFA process. I'll try to file the request today or tomorrow. Tol (talk | contribs) @ 01:43, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question from D Vela 125 (06:41, 8 June 2022)

Hello ! I'd like to publish a new page on English Wikipedia . I have already published Japanese pages but somehow I can't create English ones . Is the way you publish a page on Wiki different for different languages ? --D Vela 125 (talk) 06:41, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to English Wikipedia, @D Vela 125! Are you referring to Draft:Diego Velazquez (American actor)? On the English Wikipedia, only autoconfirmed users may create articles, but you are already autoconfirmed, so you should be able to move the draft to mainspace yourself. However, I don't think the draft currently demonstrates that Velazquez is notable. Before moving it to mainspace, I'd recommend adding references which demonstrate his notability (see the general notability guideline). Tol (talk | contribs) @ 15:45, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Rupeshm9 (09:55, 13 June 2022)

Hi,

Are there any volunteer programmes by Wikimedia group ? How can I contribute through my work ?

Thanks --Rupeshm9 (talk) 09:55, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Rupeshm9, welcome to Wikipedia! You can learn about contributing to Wikipedia at Help:Getting started. I'm not sure what "volunteer programmes" you are referring to — you may be looking for WikiProjects (on-wiki groups of Wikipedia editors who collaborate on articles in topic areas) or Wikimedia movement affiliates (geographical or topic-based organisations/groups affiliated with the Wikimedia movement).
