The comment the reviewer left was:

Many sources are unreliable, see WP:VG/S.

Speedy deletion nomination of List of eponymous albums

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on List of eponymous albums requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of eponymous albums (2nd nomination). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Now that I think about it, I probably should've created a category instead. It might already exist, though. Dabmasterars (talk) 20:17, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Stop Killing Games

On 3 July 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Stop Killing Games, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the YouTuber behind Stop Killing Games compared video-game publishers shutting down online-only games to silent-era film studios "burning their own films ... to recover the silver content"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Stop Killing Games. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Stop Killing Games), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

		Hook update
		Your hook reached 38,552 views (1,606.3 per hour), making it one of the most viewed hooks of July 2025 – nice work!

@Dabmasterars Thank you so much for your work on the article, and for helping to get it on the front page! It was a hugely pleasant surprise to see it in DYK. Apfelmaische (talk) 21:18, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

My pleasure, I'm just doing what I can to spread awareness of the initiative. I was pleasantly surprised receiving the DYK notification, but also kind of proud, thinking about the potential effects of me creating the article. Dabmasterars (talk/contribs) 21:27, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, good job avoiding the many pitfalls of Wikipedia activism. Keep up the good work and continue to mind the the five pillars and core content policies. Apfelmaische (talk) 22:15, 3 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I was about to add that information but oh well...

When I saw the information about 1 million signatures, I thought that this addition is not really sufficient as there might be invalid signatures which will be debunked at the end of the signing time.

Actually thank you for adding the information about possible invalid signs, was about to mention it in the article's talk page.
