The Strawberry Thief (novel)

Hi Vanderwaalforces, I've just tried to move an article into mainspace, but somehow I made a mistake and created a page with the wrong title. It should have been "The Strawberry Thief" (novel), but instead came up as "The Strawberry" (novel). I'm still very new to creating pages, and I can't find a way to change the title back to what it should be. I've tried undoing the page, but that doesn't work. Would you mind having a look for me, please? My mentor told me to: "ask an admin to move The Strawberry (novel) to The Strawberry Thief without a redirect," but I can't find where to do it! Your help would be much appreciated. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 15:21, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@ArthurTheGardener Hi there. I have moved the page to The Strawberry Thief from The Strawberry (novel) without leaving a redirect. PS: You don't need an admin to do that, I page mover could. I also noticed that you created The Strawberry Thief (novel) at first and thought you made a mistake when I checked history, that's why I requested speedy deletion, but redirecting The Strawberry Thief (novel) to The Strawberry Thief would not be a bad idea now. Happy editing! Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:32, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you: I appreciate your help. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 15:35, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There are more of these, just wanted to send these so you know he has Significant press coevrage from notable Nigerian sources according to Wikipedia:WikiProject Nigeria/Nigerian sources Dahproman (talk) 06:13, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dahproman Just so you know, for a source to be used, it needs to pass WP:SIGCOV, WP:INDEPENDENT, and WP:RS. If it passes WP:SIGCOV and WP:RS but does not pass WP:INDEPENDENT, it should not be used. All three needs to be passed. The first-three sources you provided above do not meet all three. The last three are PRs and cannot be used either. I have also done some searches on my own and will only urge you to forget about this subject for now and focus elsewhere. There are plenty things you can engage yourself with on here.

Okay sir thank you @Vanderwaalforces for your feedback much appreciated Dahproman (talk) 08:23, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your decline of redirects

You declined a redirect request. Asking for sources for the alternate names. However, three alternate name sources had been provided. Kindly reconsider. This relates to your 16:35, 14 May 2024 refusal of the redirects for Olympic swimmer Anastasia Gorbenko. The request had been made on 17:29, 10 May 2024. The refusal struck me as unusual given they the requested for links to uses of the alternately spelled name had in fact been supplied. And in no way were the slightly different spellings of this foreign name - as you termed it - an “unlikely” term. They are both quite similar. And supported by links. 2806:261:4AD:8319:D148:52FD:29B4:A82 (talk) 06:17, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I do not find either "Anatasia", "Anastasiya" or "Anastasiia" as alternative names for "Anastasia". These are weird and unlikely alternative names. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 07:12, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
These as you imagine are not imaginary concoctions. They are actual variations with the surname Gorbenko. Reflected in the links that were supplied with the request. In addition, I’m unclear what is meant when you say you “do not find” these to be other than “weird and unlikely.” Perhaps you are referring (I can’t tell) to a gut feeling rather than a fact based inquiry (beyond the links supplied in the request) In addition to the links supplied which I allude to, that comment is somewhat at odds with simple google searches. As well as simple Wikipedia searches. See https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?limit=500&offset=0&profile=default&search=%22Anatasia%22&title=Special:Search&ns0=1 I would ask that you reconsider and self revert under the circumstances. Thank you. - see for example https://www.google.com/search?q=%22Anatasia%22&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safari#ip=1 --2806:261:4AD:8319:D148:52FD:29B4:A82 (talk) 11:39, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you really want these redirects, kindly re-request them at the request page. I will not revert a review I made consciously. You could simply request again for another reviewer to look. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:11, 15 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
