This is the root article of large series of problematics articles and not not link clearly to an associated article on the Engiish Wikipedia. Everything indicates an attempt to create a either a fansite or an SEO promotional site on Wikiquote. @MathXplore: per Special:Diff/3235706 you appear to be marginally good faith involved in this effort, do you have any comments? -- User:Djm-leighpark(a)talk 07:00, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

I'm not sure how this is related to SEO, and I didn't think these as a fansite. MathXplore (talk) 07:06, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@talk: Essentially are you going to take responsibility for getting these splurge of poor quality articles with low verification resolved completely. If not can you suggest another venue for the discussion. Some anon IP's have been doing disruptive interference in the past 24 hours and there is a possibility not confirmed some are related to this article set. Thankyou. -- User:Djm-leighpark(a)talk 07:16, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
I have some questions etc.:
  • Why do I have to be completely responsible for entries made by somebody else?
  • What verification are you demanding? Are you asking verification for the quotes, or their notability?
  • I'm not sure what kind of places you expect for discussion, but if you think these should be deleted it goes to WQ:VFD. If you want to talk about these IPs I guess it goes to WQ:AN. Are these okay for you?

Per w:WP:Serenty prayer WQ:AN wouldn;t bring anything to the table sysops/glocal sysops and global checkusers are not already aware so likely wouldn't have a long term material result. The VFD list is pretty high at the moment and I'd prefer to have it down a little before butting anything there I don't immediately need to. And if these are articles are persisted here its likely should have integration into the rest of WikiProjects, and while I can do some of this I certainly wouldn't want to be wasting my time on the English Wikipedia doing that (even if I wasn't indef blocked on that). Anyway if I was to raise a VFD I'd like to get a feel of your view first. Thankyou. -- 07:40, 18 January 2023 (UTC) (Indent fixed, MathXplore (talk) 07:56, 18 January 2023 (UTC))Reply
(About AN) Actually I thought WQ:AN was supposed to let admins to notice things, that's what a noticeboard means, and that's why I included the AN in my suggestion. MathXplore (talk) 07:56, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
(About VFD) I thought normal nouns inside the parentheses should be decapitalized and that's the reason for the page moves that you mentioned, I didn't have a close look to the page qualities. So if you think a VFD is not needed right now then I will follow that thinking. MathXplore (talk) 07:56, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Thanks. It really needs a bulk VFD over all things Wimpy Kid to get a consistent result. A couple of related articles are/were under Speedie deletion process and overall if I'm raising myself I'd like to see a little more stability and settling before going into that process. But I've no objection to anyone else raising one. The existeece of a single "Wimpy Kid" article is no unreasonable; its the seeming sprawl which is the issue. I've no objection to anyone else raising a VFD now; and there are good reasons why sooner is better than later. However progmatically myself I'd prefer to deal with a more stable situation slightly later. -- User:Djm-leighpark(a)talk 10:25, 18 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
