the perpetrator. The newspaper article containing the false and defamatory content was linked to multiple Knowledge subjects. I will gladly locate and provide the substantiating references and documentation to support the need for my edits on the pages of the affected subjects. The statement - which follows - by @ToBeFree on another Adakiko section is directly relevant here: "In most cases, when someone explicitly complains about "defamatory content", that's a good point to stop reverting and to thoroughly analyze the situation. Even if you are completely convinced that the material a) qualifies for inclusion in the article (WP:UNDUE may be a concern), and b) is completely perfectly verifiable: Even then, we should wonder whether it's really worth insisting on keeping the material."

can select from. If you choose to edit one of the suggested article, they are guided with some on-screen prompts. 2) They have the ability to ask questions of an experienced 'mentor' who gets automatically assigned to them. In turn, the mentor is allocated a new button called 'Mentor Dashboard' where they can see who has been assigned to them. Obviously only a tiny proportion of new users will ever get around to seeking help - but they know a real person is actually willing to help them, if necessary. 3) A Help panel - with links to other help and support.

2648:. By removing the period after the S in the article title in the AfD notice, all of the AfD vanished, and the creating editor replaced it with a plea to not delete the article. I reverted this, and warned the editor on Talk page that this could lead to an indefinite block and the topic being 'salted.' I have seen editors delete AfD notices, but that shows up in the AfD View history. By changing the name of the article inside the AfD, the AfD View history content vanished. Only after I reverted the change to the article itself did the AfD content reappear. 5508: 2726: 1429: 6391:

necessarily the case I’m very much relieved. Coincidentally, I had also thought of the hypothetical scenario which you addressed above wherein a new editor just wants to create an article on their favorite artist/singer/actor and whatnot and just leaves the encyclopedia after they have achieved this, it’s great an intelligent mind has envisaged such possibility/outcome. I believe i shall adopt your philosophy and also include a brief note at the top my UP. Thanks NM, always a pleasure interacting with you.

So there's really nothing for me to do. Of course, you can reduce how many are shown to me by using the filters: If I set minimum edit count to 1, and last edit to within 7 days, it falls to just 9 editors. And if set to 1 minimum edit and activity within the last day, it falls to just two editors! 2830: 2760: 2550: 4087: 5551: 2907: 5296: 2267: 687: 306: 5329: 2300: 339: 6227: 6155: 5775: 4516: 705: 696: 5307: 2278: 317: 3034: 5500: 2752: 519: 5387: 3728: 6516:

cases not so much the wrong answers, some new editors do grasp really fast and are capable of giving correct but very premature answers due to lack of experience which unfortunately can not be taught, for example, I once noticed a new editor barely 3 days old asking how to become an admin and to my greatest shock a host literally pointed the new editor to

help out, providing we can steer them if they don't do it quite right to start with. Mentorship is slightly different as it's a one-to-one interaction, with little to no oversight by anyone else. But I still don't think it needs to be a proper permission with lots of administrative checks. Let's see how it works out.

4065:. I saw you’d csd-ed them, and was grateful. I’ll delete them when I’m back on a PC. I had seen my archives had all got badly messed up quite some while ago, presumably through my own incompetence. I’ve had other priorities, so never got to fix them. If you care to advise on resolving the mess, I’d welcome it! Cheers 6465:& the tone felt a little too harsh for a new editor who is supposed to be a mentee of the editor who gave the response I’m pretty sure at the Teahouse proper, the editor may have gotten a friendlier response. In any case, the whole development is still a work in progress, so I’d love to see how it all pans out. 6685:

is there all day, every day, should any student need practical help. I always advise any course participant to put a short statement about who they are and why they're editing on their userpage (no need for personal details), but it helps if editors like me can understand where a new editor is coming

6560:

You do make a valid point Nick, you are correct when you say we do not need to make TH onerous, but my thinking is, isn't a host cleaning up after another host tiresome? In any case, Nick, I have absolute trust in you to remove new inexperienced editors proffering wrong solutions, premature ideas and

6500:

My personal view is that The Teahouse could well be a good breeding ground for future mentors once they've become familiar with acting as hosts. At the Teahouse other editors can always correct any bad habits a new host might start off with, whereas they're very much on their own with mentorship. For

I went back and did some math on the number of questions I received monthly (I measured "months" as in February 13-January 13, for reference). I got 8 in January, 3 in December, 2 in November, 7 in October, 1 in September, 4 in August, 1 in July, 9 in June, and 1 in May. If I had to make estimates on

5972:

I can see it becoming a way for those who enjoy helping others to make themselves available to answer basic questions - just like you already at the Teahouse, but in a more one-to-one manner. I believe it would suit you perfectly, so if you wanted to give it a try, you can add your name to the mentor

4661:

Thanks. I tend to try to communicate with the reporter to explain why their report was declined so they don't repeat the mistake and waste everyone's time. I think I focussed more on the low level caution than on its staleness (which I'd not spotted). I guess either/both are valid reasons to decline.

Hi Nick. This is Colman2000. I was recently just unblocked from editing Knowledge today and I am so glad to be back! I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and hope you have a wonderful New Year 2022.

said), and we're going to let mentors click a button to set their status as "Away", meaning questions will be redirected to other mentors until they change their status. This can be helpful to mentors who do a lot of different kinds of wiki work and need to balance it all from time to time. Please

I hereby award thee the Administrator Barnstar. You are truly one of the best and nicest administrators I've come across. You are definitely a great Teahouse host too. Thank you for all your contributions and help to make Knowledge better! We need more Wikipedians like you. Keep up the good work! ―

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to cite evidence that person x's claim was subsequently proven incorrect. Even so, claims of libel action can still be reported here (with due care over wording) where those claims, counter-claims, law suits and punishments are relevant to the subject

3947:

After becoming more familiar with Knowledge policies I understand the reasons for your concerns and undoing my edits. I certainly had no intention of creating an edit war. The intention is to remove defamatory content which was discredited and the false claims acknowledged and reversed in writing by

3408:

For your perfect works at the Teahouse, I find your responses to new users not to be just polite but also, (which is what I appreciate the most) is the patience and diligence you exhibit when giving out well thought out responses to new editors and the humble manner in which you follow up, when they

their mentees in their dashboard (and not just those who have edited or who have asked a question) is to empower mentors to be more creative or proactive if they wish. Perhaps some mentors might want to proactively get in touch with mentees who appear to be struggling, even before they are asked.

6537:

I see little problem of a new editor not answering TH questions very well, because there are always other hosts able to follow up and correct any misinformation. For that reason I don't think we need to make becoming a TH host too onerous. There's nothing wrong with a keen, young editor learning to

6520:

and that was all they said, not necessarily wrong but beyond premature, due to the fact that the host is very inexperienced, thus the reason I advocate for a threshold of perhaps arbitrary, being a year old, answering questions there without anyone correcting you for at least a month, a clean block

6312:

I can't see any sign of anyone asking a new user question on your talk page, so I wouldn't worry if I were you. See it as a bit like my local doctor who might have 10,000 patients on his register. He/she never gets them all turning up at once with an issue, so they shouldn't feel too swamped (covid

if they need help, not you going to them. These usernames get assigned automatically, and by far the vast majority never make more than a single edit, if that. Of the remainder, most have no need to get advice, and only a few will take up the offer of contacting a Mentor with a basic Teahouse-like

OK - it's actually quite simple. Categories are part of a hierarchy - like roots of a tree spreading down into the ground, getting smaller and smaller as they go, splitting into finer categories. So you feel you need a new sub-category? Then go to a related article - or one higher up - and see what

4856:

Your question surprised me as I felt such a category ought to exist already. Sure enough, it does, albeit worded slightly differently. It’s really important to check thoroughly before making a new category. I’m not going to tell you the right answer as it’s a better learning experience to discover

3980:

I see nothing libellous in that source that would affect Knowledge reporting the news article. Even if the claim were proven false, the fact that such a claim was made could, in itself, be relevant to the topic. We might simply deem it relevant to then state that the claim was subsequently shown to

Sorry for bothering you again. I don't know if I am sane or not, but I wanted to know if there was such a project or anything other thing called WikiProject Tables? I have now grasped the concept of tables, and love creating and modifying complex tables. Is there a place or project where I can hone

935:

Thank you. I'd already added that page to my watchlist for the next 3 months, but wasn't sure if it was one of the other articles you were referring to. (I also had a moment of panic as I thought I'd accidentally blocked you instead! There's something about IPv6 address that brings out the dyslexic

6515:

You are apt Nick, I agree with your analysis, I had in the past erroneously thought of hosting as a process wherein one could only get officially invited, i was amazed to discover it required just signing up. This in my opinion has led to bad advice given to editors asking questions there, in some

which I advocate is only suitable for new but committed users who want to be guided in more depth, and have a clear recent history of trying to edit across different areas. It's certainly not for someone wanting to be guided to making their one and only page about their favourite musician and then

It's all about offering a new, structured way to encourage and retain new users. When activated, they get to see an extra tab called 'Homepage' This contains three elements 1) they are given a feed of suggestions for small editing ideas to perform, and with different levels of difficulty that they

but having checked my mentees alas the individual was assigned to me. I’m quite relieved to hear it’s they coming to me rather than me “chase” after them as I erroneously presumed. I’m happy to answer questions from them tirelessly but my sole fear was what I described above now I know this isn’t

6328:

But I do know what you mean. (I'm also personally feeling rather swamped at the moment, both off- and on-wiki as maybe shows in my recent threads here and through some complex Teahouse engagements.) So, my advice is give it some time to settle in, and do feel free to raise any broader concerns or

Thanks but I have some more things to ask you. First of all, am I allowed to contribute to other language wikipedias, along side the English Knowledge? Is that allowed? I don't know how they know me, but administrators of the Bengali wikipedia, are begging me to contribute there. So, should I say

6367:

Finally, just to help any new mentee who sees my name on their Dashboard, and wonders who this unknown person is, I've added a new top-of-the-page note to my Userpage to help them understand why they've randomly got me 'assigned' to them. I hope this all makes sense; let me know what you feel.

If you decided you wanted to offer to only mentor someone who, say, you'd met at the Teahouse and felt you wanted to put a metaphorical wiki-arm around them and encourage their learning journey on a 1-1 basis, then there's nothing to stop you doing that. A formal way to offer that is via

Unregistered editors using the mobile website are now able to receive notices to indicate they have talk page messages. The notice looks similar to what is already present on desktop, and will be displayed on when viewing any page except mainspace and when editing any page.

6461:, my thinking is as aptly stated by Nick is if ever I feel inundated I could always opt out of being a mentor. Nick also made a valid point some time in the past as to how this would or may affect the Teahouse. I really hope this development is a success, I noted this 3988:

In addition to these low numbers, in the very near future, you will be able to determine the volume of mentees you receive, set to either low, medium, or high. People that are short on time can set this to low to make things more manageable.
