I admit I had a certain appreciation for the longstanding link to project space (Wikipedia:Wikipe-tan) on Catgirl, given it was one of the few places I'm aware of where such a link was tacitly (perhaps IAR?) accepted for years - I've always wondered if eventually consensus would decide it had to go. But I like your edit. It seems kind of obvious in retrospect, but I hadn't been aware we had anything in mainspace about Wikipe-tan. Since it turns out she is discussed in Moe anthropomorphism#Computers, where Wikipe-tan redirects, it is indeed for the best to link that.

And, of course, it is in line with orthodoxy for that section to have an "also redirects here" hatnote linking to the project space page, which it does. So your solution is probably the best of both worlds. CharredShorthand.talk; 01:59, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

The redirect Othello World has been listed at redirects for discussion to determine whether its use and function meets the redirect guidelines.

I don't think {{Unreferenced}} is appropriate with settlements than only give the localion, if content is later added such as population, notable residents or name origin then it can be re added, most settlement articles don't include references for the location when there are other sourced facts so I don't see a reason to tag if there aren't other facts that need sources.

As WP:NGEO says A feature cannot be notable, under either WP:GNG or any SNG, if the only significant coverage of the feature is in maps, though rare exceptions may apply (and I can assure, having gone through some of the likely unrefrenced lists, you that this is not a rare situation). So if it's notable (and I'm not disputing that) there will be coverage to add, and if not it shouldn't be here. The tag isn't about an accusation about the state of the article, it's a call to action and bring it to the attention of people trying to sort all unreffrenced articles out (WP:URA's progress means that's projected to happen about 1 year from now). If you prefer I could add a {{one source}} instead (since your claiming that all the claims in the article are based on the information from the coordinates).

I don't really think we need tags at all, as the template says "Consider not adding this template to very brief stubs, since anyone visiting the page can see, in a single glance, that it contains no citations.". I think this would apply, we should try not to add more tags than we need to. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:04, 17 April 2026 (UTC)

As I say the point here isn't necessarily to signal to people that happen upon the article, but to add it to the system that signals that others should look for sources for this (as they are needed at some point in the future). For example it gets added to Wikipedia:NEWCOMERTASKS and as I say it's the basis which many people at WP:URA use. I know I've personally sourced a bunch of unrefed GEO stubs found using Special:RandomInCategory/All articles lacking sources. I'm happy to leave these 3 for now, but I wouldn't be surprised if over the next year others try to add unref tags (because it is by most metrics unrefed).

Hi, I work in the Unreferenced backlog project. Unless there is a tag, it won't come in the list for me to work and add refs. So I guess it helps. Also, every article on Wiki must have a reference as per the guidelines/policies. Davidindia (talk) 07:58, 22 April 2026 (UTC)
