User talk:Lorraine Crane

New page reviewer granted

Hi Lorraine Crane, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

Add Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers to your watchlist to follow NPP-related discussions
If you use Twinkle, configure it to log your CSDs and PRODs
If you can read any languages other than English, add yourself to the list of reviewers with language proficiencies

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone! _signed,Rosguill ^talk 19:08, 28 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, and sorry if this comes across as rude, but did you by any chance use a large language model/AI, such as ChatGPT, to write the article? Again, sorry if this seems a little invasive, but the formatting in the lead was a bit off in the first revision, and sentences in it such as Vegetarianism and veganism in the Philippines refer to dietary and lifestyle practices that exclude meat (vegetarianism) or all animal-derived products (veganism), as observed within the cultural, social, and economic context of the Philippines read very differently than sentences from elsewhere in the article, such as some of the contributing reasons for the reasons for the resistance of the Mainstream conversations about Veganism and vegetarianism is due to Filipino cuisine having a track record of adapting outside influence and making it uniquely Filipino dishes, this has been witnessed in Philippine history by Spanish, Chinese and American influences during each of their respective periods of colonization.. If you did use a LLM, that can be okay, but it's very strongly discouraged by a lot of Wikipedia editors because it can often introduce falsehoods or promotional wording. And it's important that you disclose it, if you do use a LLM like ChatGPT, so your fellow editors know what's going on. If you didn't, then please feel free to say too!

Hi GreenLipstickLesbian! I haven't used any LLM, however I did look into various other articles to get the idea on how to write lead sections properly. Perhaps this's why it looks a bit different from the rest of the article. I do realize that it still has a room for improvement. Lorraine Crane (talk) 21:50, 6 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
