Review

Paul, please review this.
Draft:Central–Western Economic Corridor
Draft:Northern Economic Corridor
Draft:Northeastern Economic Corridor 2001:FB1:8B:8A53:7CD5:9075:3A65:6A05 (talk) 00:23, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

I'm not a regular AfC reviewer, so for that you might want to submit it through the usual process or ask someone else. I would comment, though, that unlike the EEC, which was the subject of a lot of sustained news coverage, these other economic corridor projects don't seem to be individually notable, and should probably be covered together under a single article, or as a section under an existing one. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:37, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Hmm I think CEWC is important enough, If we're talking about news coverage, there are even videos about CEWC, such as this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDqT2bNGiJ0. However, I can't seem to find any videos on NEC or NEEC though.2001:FB1:8B:8A53:81A0:2FF9:E563:A522 (talk) 07:46, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Also, do you think that if I submit it, the admins will delete the page and consider it as advertising? 2001:FB1:8B:8A53:A5ED:C82E:CE2F:1097 (talk) 08:52, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

I still think all of them should have a separate page instead of being under SEZ. Alternatively, we could consider merging NEC, NEEC, SEC, and CEWC under a single page for Special Economic Corridors of Thailand. 2001:FB1:8B:8A53:AC27:BD11:C95A:6229 (talk) 12:01, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

They shouldn't be at risk of speedy deletion for advertising, though they may not be accepted with the current references. I think they'd have better chance if combined under a single article. --Paul_012 (talk) 14:38, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

Draft:Special economic zones (Thailand): I am unsure if this article will cover all of the economic zones in Thailand, including NEC, NEEC, SEC, CEWC, and EEC.2001:FB1:8B:8A53:7D46:BB64:5227:A6C6 (talk) 18:33, 20 February 2023 (UTC)

That's a good start. I think it could be developed either way (expanding to include the ECs, or having them as a separate article). Combining would allow for a single overview of their history, since their development is under the same government agency, but if/once they become more developed with a lot of content having them as separate articles might be better for readability. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:22, 23 February 2023 (UTC)

about inventions

Why did you remove the Elide Fire Extinguishing Ball from the list of Thai inventions? Was it not invented by a Thai person? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_Thai_inventions_and_discoveries&oldid=989191021. Also, I feel like all traditional martial arts, sports, and musical instruments should be included. 2001:FB1:88:A95C:BDBC:269C:4F0F:6C71 (talk) 11:23, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

As noted in the edit summary, it appeared to be a single product by one company and not notable according to Wikipedia's criteria. As for the second point, I am of the opinion that "inventions and discoveries" refers to scientific and technological advancements, not cultural heritage. --Paul_012 (talk) 12:16, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

I understand your point regarding cultural heritage. However, the Elide Fire Extinguishing Ball has won multiple awards and is recognized in multiple countries, which could demonstrate its notability. 2001:FB1:88:A95C:6C7D:862B:3F90:A1E5 (talk) 22:17, 28 February 2023 (UTC)

I could be wrong about the fire-extinguishing ball. I won't revert if someone re-adds it. In cases like this, writing the article first would also help to more clearly demonstrate notability. --Paul_012 (talk) 10:58, 1 March 2023 (UTC)

Question of proposed deletion and suggestion

Hi, I got proposed deletion from Prachin Buri radiation accident Which I don't agree with that propose. Because If there is no one make the Page then there will be none. For example in thai page. There's always other people who will ready to write after me. Siravijbb (talk) 16:30, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Sorry, I already retracted the proposed deletion but forgot to remove the message from your talk page.

You shouldn't have copied from the Samut Prakan radiation accident article, though, as the circumstances were very different and as such the copied content was wildly incorrect, short and abruptly ending as it was. --Paul_012 (talk) 16:36, 21 March 2023 (UTC)

Usage of surname template

I removed the surname template from Lamsam family because it doesn't seem applicable when I read the template documentation. Moreover, a quick browse through hundreds of articles transcluding the template couldn't find any articles with Family in its title. And Family articles, e.g. those in Category:Business families of the United States don't seem to use the template at all. Aithus (talk) 18:11, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

I redirected Lamsam to Lamsam family when creating the page and included the name list as a section there as the surname is exclusive to the family. If the name list was a separate page, the template would be included as standard, but the documented guidance doesn't quite fit this specific case. I think it's most within the spirit of the template to have it, as there is a name list in the article and pages linking directly to Lamsam should be corrected if they meant a specific person. --Paul_012 (talk) 11:03, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

I agree that this case is can be argued either way and I won't try to remove it again. I find it strange, however, that if the surname template is used, any short description specified will be overridden by a standard "Surname list" text. Aithus (talk) 12:48, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Move request

Paul, do you think the Wikipedia article on Sbai should be merged into the page on Shawl-like garment? I feel like the current article on Sbai places too much emphasis on its connection to Cambodia. I don't have experience with moving pages, can you help me request it? Tmaoa492s (talk) 13:21, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

As this would be a potentially controversial move, raising the issue on the article talk page first, as you have done, is a good idea. I'll reply further there. --Paul_012 (talk) 11:31, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

Am Cholticha

I understand your point regarding the tik tok video, however, the editor claims to have taken the pic in November 2022, predating the tik tok upload. They've uploaded a number of other files, and have been selective in claiming authorship, or giving credit. Not sure about this one. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:27, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

I'm rather familiar with the contributor. He's contributed to dozens of articles on luk thung singers over many years; this one is very much within his normal area of interest. And he's literally a school student. It's very unlikely that he's connected to the subject by employment. A false claim on the Commons upload, of which he has a history, is a much more likely explanation. --Paul_012 (talk) 12:43, 29 May 2023 (UTC)

Guidance

Hi Paul, I need little guidance, I am trying to upskill myself in tech field, hence exploring Wikipedia opportunities. Could you please let me know apart from HTML what domain majorly used in article making? BrightsForever (talk) 20:30, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Wikipedia, like all sites using the MediaWiki software, uses wiki markup to format its pages. I don't know if you've been using the source editor, but if so, you're probably already familiar with it. Otherwise, see Help:Wikitext for a guide. Other than that, there's MediaWiki's template system (Help:Template), and more advanced features are implemented using the WP:Lua programming language. All of these are only used by MediaWiki, though, so they might not be a very useful skillset elsewhere. Not sure if this answers your question; let me know if not. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:26, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

Train stations and notability

I just saw the closed discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Si Bearing MRT station. Are you familiar with this RfC from July 2022 regarding notability of train stations? I see someone cited the 2019 discussion which the 2022 one supersedes, but not the 2022 one - I'm a little aghast that this happened. I'm not familiar with the details on this particular station, but you might have a case for DRV as most of the keep arguments are directly contradicting the RfC's close of "There clear is consensus that train stations have no inherent notability." Trainsandotherthings (talk) 22:49, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

Thanks for the pointer. I knew of the 2019 RfC, but indeed not the 2022 one. I didn't think that that AfD singling out a single station was the best way to address the issue, so I didn't argue more strongly on the lack of source coverage. But the fact is also that past experience has made me averse to trying to enforce policy on railway station notability through AfD, as they seem to always turn into a battle against people piling on with I-like-it !votes not based in policy, RfC or no. --Paul_012 (talk) 07:41, 23 June 2023 (UTC)

Pages still under review

the pages Adolescent (mini album),Gawin Caskey and Bhasidi Petchsutee are still not visible in any search engine. Are they still under review? LoveBright247 (talk) 18:37, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

That's probably the case. Newly created pages won't be indexed by search engines until they are reviewed by the WP:New pages patrol process, or 90 days have passed. See WP:Controlling search engine indexing for details. NPP isn't supposed to be a stringent review by any means, but the queue is unfortunately often backlogged and pages may go unnoticed for some time. I'm not a new page reviewer so I can't help you there, but if you need further advice the place to ask would be WT:New pages patrol/Reviewers. --Paul_012 (talk) 09:21, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Translation help needed

Hello,

Back in 2002, someone tried to make an article entitled ร์โ«นยฌรงโ«ฐยนรจยงรจยงยฃ on Wikipedia, which infamously got mojibaked. My attempts at translating it via Google have rendered it as either 'The Thai Money "Factory"' or a misspelling of "Royal Theater", but your translation help would greatly be appreciated; even if it's garbled (which I highly suspect), maybe you can suss out what was meant back then.

Regards,

– John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 03:46, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

It's pure gibberish, and Google Translate's suggested "corrections" are also meaningless nonsensical character sequences that certainly don't translate to anything. Not sure why Thai was thought to be the intended encoding? --Paul_012 (talk) 05:04, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

From several encodings I tested from UTF-8, x-mac-thai was the only one without any "?"s or other faulty characters. Interesting to hear it still doesn't make any semantic sense, I'll let you know if anything else comes from it. – John M Wolfson (talk • contribs) 06:01, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

Jean Trescases death’s place

Thanks you for your modification and yes I think that the death’s place aren’t Thailand 🇹🇭 but Vietnam 🇻🇳 because the source says « point d’appui de Bai Tho » and Bai Tho is a location point in Vietnam. But I am not sure at 100%. I find also this : Bang Son ตำบล บางซ่อน, Ban Pho, Province de Chachoengsoa, Thaïlande Yes it’s in French because I am French. The first reference can be Vietnam (Bai Tho) but the second one can be Thailand. In this source : https://www.memoiredeshommes.sga.defense.gouv.fr/fr/arkotheque/client/mdh/guerre_indochine/detail_fiche.php?ref=1633325&debut=0 (by the French Government) It says that Jean was kill in Bang-Son in Tonkin and Tonkin is the north of Vietnam Have a nice weekend.

It obviously can't have been the Thai place, which is unrelated, since he died in the First Indochina War. --Paul_012 (talk) 08:44, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your help ! I am going to modify the page Yuilo (talk) 08:50, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

On wiki data, we can see Bang Son Thailand. So I am going to modify it Yuilo (talk) 10:52, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Wikidata only allows statements to link to existing items, and there's no Bang Son in Vietnam listed on Wikidata (nor enough information to support creating a new item). I've changed the statement to Tonkin instead. --Paul_012 (talk) 12:40, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Thanks you very much Yuilo (talk) 06:55, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

Short mackerel "Not within scope of WikiProject Oceans"

Can you explain this edit [6]? I'm curious about the rationale. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 15:46, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

Hi. The scope of WP:WikiProject Oceans is described as follows:

The scope of this project will include the articles within the Category:Oceans, Category:Seas, and Category:Gulfs, given the often ill-defined boundaries between such bodies. However, should there develop other projects with overlapping scope, this project will deal primarily with those articles which do not fall within the scope of any of those other projects.

My reading of this is that it does not include fishes, and indeed, checking a few pages through Category:WikiProject Oceans articles, I don't see any fish articles. But you could ask at WT:WikiProject Oceans to make sure. --Paul_012 (talk) 17:30, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

I should ask it on the page which contains the discussion "Discussion about new article on marine resources?" and clearly treats marine resources as within the scope of the project? Fish are marine resources. I also see a large number of fish and related topics in the linked articles category. Horse Eye's Back (talk) 17:32, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
