Aries (singer)

Hey Brachy, thanks for your tips on the Aries page I'm creating. I saw this was the link to chat with you. I have added a chart positon for Aries album on the Billboard 200 as I saw that having a single or album in a national music chart is a criteria for notability. I can't seem to figure out how to format that in the way that other artists have on their page like Keshi (singer) for example where there's a separate box for US below peak chart positions. Do you know how I can do that?

Hopefully this is enough notability for Aries to be approved. Aries is a notable artist that has had tours where other artists that have Wikipedia pages have been supporting him such as Brakence and Verzache. You can see here - https://www.instagram.com/aries/p/CVgNejTviBk/ .

I see Verzache's page for example doesn't have any major label albums or chart positions and is approved.

I'm not sure why 3 references are showing in early life and not in the main reference list. How can I fix that?

Also what sources are unreliable? I'd love to fix whatever's needed to get this approved.

What else do I also need to clean up? Is that something I do or does it go through to a moderator to do that?

Thank you for the help!

well, since you have proved that aries got an album into the billboard 200, which is a notable chart, passing one criteria in WP:MUSICBIO. it should be notable. i kinda found the problem about the three sources and fixed it for you, but for now, i think it can pass. that's just me. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 03:42, 12 February 2025 (UTC)

Great, thanks for the feedback and thanks for fixing those sources. Much appreciated. What are the next steps to get it approved and live? Do I need to resubmit it? Wikiguru19 (talk) 05:30, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

I just resubmitted FYI. Let me know if there's anything else I should do! Are you the one that approves it to go live or is that someone else? Wikiguru19 (talk) 05:34, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

you can do as much research on aries as possible. but be sure to check WP:ALBUMSOURCES and WP:RSP. it should help with sourcing but yeah the article should be good to go. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 06:57, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

Ok great thanks very much! Will do. I see it's live now that's great :)

Do you know how I can update the Discography chart so it looks like the one under studio albums here - Olivia Dean. So it has peak chart positions then the country's box underneath. Rather than having the country in parenthesis like Aries page currently. I just think it would look cleaner and more like other Wikipedia pages look.

Also do you know how I can remove the empty small square boxes that show on Aries public page now? At the bottom left under the career text there's one small empty square box. Then under the discography chart at the bottom left there's 2 small empty square boxes Wikiguru19 (talk) 01:30, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

ill try my best to clean the article up. ;D brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 02:40, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Thank you you're the best!! Wikiguru19 (talk) 02:41, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

no problem ;D brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 02:44, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Out of interest how long does it normally take for a Wikipedia page to reach the top of the Google search rankings? I tried search 'Aries musician' on Google but it isn't showing yet Wikiguru19 (talk) 18:43, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

i honestly don’t know but if i had to take a guess, it depends on how many people view the article. you can try submitting him for WP:DYK to boost some pageviews but you might want to dig deep to find something interesting about him. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 23:41, 18 February 2025 (UTC)

Late reply, but it takes until a page is reviewed by WP:NPP or indexed by google after 90 days- whichever comes first. Sarsenet (talk) 09:55, 9 March 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for that. How can I get the page reviewed by WP:NPP? Wikiguru19 (talk) 22:45, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

it's kinda random and the best thing i can compare it to is a gachapon machine. some articles get reviewed almost immediately, others can take a while. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 00:10, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

Haha all good thank you! Wikiguru19 (talk) 00:16, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

Please correct your mistake and approve the post. FateHum (talk) 01:48, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

@FateHum please dig out all the information the books have on wendall. from a quick glance from the quotes you gave me, it seems like passing mentions and do not count into SIGCOV. (think of it as the av club source you found, it has one paragraph dedicated to wendall) brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 02:53, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

The instructions state the entire thing does not need to be on them, one paragraph is not a fleeting mention, a fleeting mention is merely mentioning a character, the paragraphs in question describe her implications as a character from many perspectives, as seen above. A fleeting mention would be "Many people have been claimed to be deities throughout history, including Jesus Christ." Rather than discussing the role Jesus had on society and religion. Its also four separate sources, even if each is not enough for notability on their own. What is the definition of fleeting mention wikipedia uses? FateHum (talk) 04:40, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

a fleeting mention is simply just mentioning that it exists, not covering the topic. also please quote all the things about wendall, and you should be good to go.

(on a side note, apologies if i sound rude) brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 05:30, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

Okay, so the quotes i added Are enough to be more than fleeting mention. When you say i should quote the things about her, do you mean i should extract them from the sources and add them to her page draft or send them to you here? As in, should i add to the page "Person A described; <insert quote>?" and then add the sources? FateHum (talk) 07:39, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

Also, not at all, you are the nicest redactor i met thusfar, i also apologize if i came out as rude, i have been going through a lot of trouble with this draft recently and not everyone seems to agree on what constitutes different things FateHum (talk) 07:41, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

thanks =D

it's best if you put it here. maybe... you might find some useful information that you can add ;D

(and you didn't really come off as rude, i understand how it feels to have drafts rejected) brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 07:49, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

"There is a star contrast between the transformation of male and female werewolves in Hemlock Grove. Peter Rumancek (Landon Liboiron) experiences sevastating agony; Christina Wendall (Freya Tingley) describes her cange as being sexually arousing." - I'd say that is more than mentioning her existence.

"Everyone assumer the killer is male, yet the vargulf is eventually revealed to be local teenager Christina Wendall (Freya Tingley). This can be seen as either clever plot twist designed to catch the viewer out, or a familiar structure for female werewolf story where gender is simply a narrative device (Priest notes that the "reveal" of the female werewolf is often used as "a surprise" ["introduction"   4), depending on the viewer. Christina, who struck up friendship with Peter the first day he arrived in Hemlock Grove, and later discovers his secret, admires him for being free. She therefore chooses to become a werewolf, employing an obscure folklore ritual of drinking from the wolves' paw print, hoping to taste this freedom for herself. This chimes with Priest's characterization of young adult female werewolf narratives as presenting lycanthropy as "an escape from adolescence" ("Teenage she-wolf"   131)  or from the limitation of social expectations of girls and women. Christina is not overly sexualized, though she is motivated by her "crush" on Peter, and she certanly fits the stereotype of violence in female werewolves. Her narrative arc is completed in this season, though, and seems to reiterate that pattern Peter Hutchings indentifies in female werewolf films: "the female werewolf generally remains a monster throughout" (167)." - This is longer than my future. There is a bit more on her relation to the plot, but it's goes off the topic about Christina and is used as a connection to the rest of the text.

The vargwolf turns out to be the middle-class tweenChristina Wendall who seeks life-experience that will secure her entry intothe class-based identity of a novelist. To achieve this Bildungsroman, shechooses the werewolf in a reversal of Little Red Riding Hood when shefirst steals a kiss from the sleeping Romany. This act fits a conventional semiotic story about the fearful entry into agendered female identity, such as when she is shown peering into a roundblack space that will inaugurate her being plagued by whispers. Yet thegaze into the hole is not ultimately configured as a scopic mechanismof sex/gender-making, the apparatus as feminized lack, since what she islooking into is the factory’s abandoned Bessemer steel machinery. For the town Hemlock Grove is one of the many postindustrial rust belt cit-ies, where a factory that provided mass employment has been shut downby the Godfrey family in their turn to biotech as a more profitable, butjobless economy. The cleansing of the local working class comes not fromvampirism, but industrial modernization, much like what Frank Sobotkaexperienced in the Baltimore harbor. Eventually Christina realizes that her own aspirational life narrative, herbecoming, is better achieved through alignment or occupation with thelower class. This turn begins as she initially wants to observe anthropologi-cally the Romany and make him answer her interpellating questions abouthis identity. Yet this scopic and police procedural attitude is abandoned as‘Wendell realizes that to be a bourgeois fiction writer now means more thanjust becoming interested in the lifeworld of the working class, as Other,but by physically taking their side, when she transforms herself into a lycan-thrope even without being touched beforehand by one. This turn appearswhen she undermines the hailing town sheriff by dismembering his twindaughters, who had taunted Christina for failing to achieve sexual experi-ence, but also led her to the aforementioned factory as if to lord it overthe absent workers. Christina’s rejection of upward-class attraction with theauthority of elites is illustrated by her symbolic refusal of gender interpel-lation within heterosexuality. For she becomes a werewolf, not by gettingpenetrated through a werewolf’s bite, after conventional flight and struggle,but by getting down on her knees and drinking water she has added fromthe empty imprint of an absent werewolf’s paw (Figure 9.3). - This is longer than both our futures.

... Christina is a monster , but she goes outside the natural order ofthings and becomes a vargulf , which Peter explains is " a wolf that'sgone insane ... [ It] doesn't eat what it kills . " But were - wolfism is.described as beautiful ... - I have not been provided with full access to this article. FateHum (talk) 08:45, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

eh, seems like it could pass. feel free to resubmit it =D brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 08:47, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

i am not sure how to, but here is the draft Draft:Christina Wendall FateHum (talk) 08:58, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

I managed to! FateHum (talk) 09:02, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

By the way, when i google the article the talk page is the one that pops up, is that normal? FateHum (talk) 09:25, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

ok that is weird brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 09:38, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

probably a glitch ig brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 09:38, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

I did give a slightly older version of the article for publication, if that is not the issue, i assume its not on wikipedias part of the fence buty on Google's FateHum (talk) 22:56, 30 March 2025 (UTC)

ok =D.

you might wanna check the aries (singer) convo for a little bit more info abt google showing wikipedia articles brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 01:07, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

Okay, i also edited the text recently to fit a more academic style. If you have any, specific, ideas on how i can improve it further, feel free to tell me FateHum (talk) 02:54, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

You can try looking at articles about other fictional characters, to get a good gist on what her article should look like. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 03:42, 31 March 2025 (UTC)

re: Christina Wendall

I'm not totally sure you should have moved Christina Wendall into mainspace yet. I've done a lot of cleanup work including removal of inline external links/converting them to references and fixing blatant typos (and some smaller things like changing wikilinks and fixing spacing). There are still numerous bare URLs as references which I haven't gotten around to expanding yet. I'm not going to necessarily say it should be draftified, but please be a little more careful in the future with accepting things. Thanks for hearing me out, Sarsenet (talk) 11:16, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

it should be moved to mainspace but im hoping that it could be cleaned up as much as possible. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 03:43, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

re: REC Solar

Hi, Brachy! I saw feedback that my article was not approved. Curious to know if you have any additional feedback.

This page is needed as a solar panel manufacturer REC Group (which has a Wikipedia page) is very commonly mistaken for REC Solar. Making this distinction is necessary as REC Group's Wikipedia page is connected to REC Solar's webpage in Google results since REC Solar doesn't have its own Wikipedia page. Curious to know if there are specific edits that should be made to the proposed REC Solar Wikipedia page.

Thank you! BellwetherSolar (talk) 17:23, 28 March 2025 (UTC)

you might want to find some reliable sources (based off a quick skim, it seems like none of them are reliable) brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 03:44, 29 March 2025 (UTC)

Sure, I can definitely fix the sources. Do you know which sources seem unreliable? I removed the links to our website and kept the links to media articles and media releases. BellwetherSolar (talk) 14:21, 1 April 2025 (UTC)

well, none of the sources (from my perspective) seem reliable imo (GreenTech doesn’t seem promising ngl), so you might wanna find other sources. brachy08 _{(chat here lol)} 22:45, 1 April 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback! I'll try my best to add context and address the reliability of my sources here:

Greentech Media, a green technology and renewables news site, was acquired by global data and analytics provider Wood Mackenzie in 2016 and integrated into the Wood Mackenzie brand in 2021. Before its integration into Wood Mac, Greentech Media had four offices globally. It was frequently referred to as one of the world's top publications for cleantech news and analysis. In 2021, Wood Mackenzie announced that it would leave Greentech Media's legacy articles up on its site -- instead of removing them entirely -- and began publishing new content under the integrated brand. (I'm happy to provide additional information supporting Greentech Media's legacy and reputation.)

PV Tech is one of the top sources of information for the international solar PV supply chain and is frequently read by many in the renewables industry.

Sunrun has been a major player in the residential solar business for nearly 20 years. Their 2014 media release announcing the acquisition of REC Solar's residential division is accurate and was covered by reputable national trade publications. Instead of referencing their media release, I'm happy to attribute the 2014 sale/acquisition to this article in Clean Technica.

Duke Energy is one of the top utilities in the U.S., and I referenced one of its media releases. The acquisition of REC Solar was also covered by industry outlets, including this article in Utility Dive. I'm happy to link to the Utility Dive article if you prefer that I not link to Duke Energy.

Solar Power World is one of the top sources of information for the U.S. solar market, focusing on solar manufacturing.

For my news sources, I selected reputable trade media outlets that are well-respected in the renewables industry, employ journalists, and have a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy. Nothing in any of the news outlets' coverage or legacy would suggest that they wouldn't (or shouldn't) be considered a reliable source. If the press releases are not considered to be independent, I'm happy to swap out the SunRun and Duke Energy media releases with the two articles linked above.

I hope this provides additional context to the reliability of the sources! Please let me know if I need to provide anything else. BellwetherSolar (talk) 15:52, 2 April 2025 (UTC)
