Hey, would you be willing to go to commons and nominate commons:File:Vic-Michaelis_imdb.png for speedy deletion on my behalf? I can't typically edit outside of en as I'm on an otherwise blocked VPN and my need to edit outside of en is infrequent enough that I'm not IP block exempt anywhere else. ^LaffyTaffer💬(they/she) 17:46, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

I see you've just done so, thank you so much <3 ^LaffyTaffer💬(they/she) 17:52, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

I guess we were thinking alike because I had the commons criteria for speedy deletion up when I saw your ping (I never remember the exact code numbers)! Tagged it with speedy deletion for copyright issues. Sariel Xilo (talk) 17:53, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

I don't know if this one would be in your wheelhouse, but does Draft:Sundering Adventurer's Chronicle hold any interest for you? BOZ (talk) 17:16, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

I took a look when red links started to popup to it but I don't think it is salvageable. 2 of the sources are just a recap of the Sundering event overview & 1 source is WP:FORBESCON. Also, the structure felt AI generated. Sariel Xilo (talk) 19:03, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

KDH

Hi SarielXilo; I've not seen you at KDH for nearly a month. There have been a string of edits from Fruitful Frugal to the plot there which I'm not sure what to think of; do they belong in the article. Could you take a glance. ErnestKrause (talk) 01:13, 25 June 2026 (UTC)

If I were to restore Dragonborn would you have the sources to help improve it? BOZ (talk) 13:53, 21 June 2026 (UTC)

Or how about the Goliath ? BOZ (talk) 01:18, 5 July 2026 (UTC)

I also kind of reconstructed Half-orc in case you've got more for that one, or the other two. BOZ (talk) 04:31, 9 August 2026 (UTC)

@BOZ: off the top of my head, a bunch of the sources I used in the reception at Half-elf (Dungeons & Dragons) mentioned half-orcs in a similar context (especially the academic sources). I don't have time to dig into that right now but that should put you on the right track for establishing notability. Let me know if you can't access any of the sources through the Wiki Library & I'll see if I saved any pdfs. Sariel Xilo (talk) 19:29, 13 August 2026 (UTC)

OK thanks, I will take a look when I get a chance. :) I can see that some of it can just be copy/pasted, but I will look at the other sources and see which ones could be used! BOZ (talk) 19:35, 13 August 2026 (UTC)

Any ideas of where to add links to The Crooked Moon? So far I've added one. Avantris Entertainment is probably notable enough for its own article but I don't know much about the company. Sariel Xilo (talk) 21:46, 14 August 2026 (UTC)

Good question, would List of systemless fantasy role-playing game supplements make sense here? BOZ (talk) 22:10, 14 August 2026 (UTC)

I did not know that list existed. Maybe? It is 3rd party which is why I removed it from the Wizards template. Sariel Xilo (talk) 22:43, 14 August 2026 (UTC)

I made that list because I had tons and tons of 1E and 2E era stuff, but there's no reason we can't use it for any edition. 3 era (d20) might one day needs its own list, and I don't know much about 4E. BOZ (talk) 23:25, 14 August 2026 (UTC)

A kitten for you!

Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Fantasy Flight Games)

Moved to Talk:Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Fantasy Flight Games) § Maintenance templates

 – Wrong venue. Sariel Xilo (talk) 17:24, 13 August 2026 (UTC)

What's wrong with the references in Star Wars Roleplaying Game (Fantasy Flight Games)? As a target sample I checked the first ten out... and, apart from the fantasyflightgames.com links (which could be considered as primary source), the sources seem valid to me. Kintaro (talk) 17:04, 13 August 2026 (UTC)

See response at article's talk page. Sariel Xilo (talk) 17:24, 13 August 2026 (UTC)

Articles for Creation backlog drive

Hello Sariel Xilo:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:38, 19 July 2026 (UTC)
