Alleva Dairy – New article that has a few bare urls.North America1000 05:45, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
- Done Less Unless (talk) 20:38, 21 April 2022 (UTC)
- Navy Marine Corps Intranet – Needs major cleanup and updating; page has seemingly been co-opted by editors who have loaded the page with material that violates WP:PROMO. KidAd • SPEAK 23:02, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
Honeybee Heroes – Presently is a dead end with no links to other articles and is also orphaned, with no articles linking to it.North America1000 10:15, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
- Joseon Army and Joseon Navy - Some of the information I gathered for these pages were from the Korean websites that I translated using Google Translate. I need to know if I properly translated them right. I also need help with the way I put citations on these pages. Koreanidentity10000 (Koreanidentity10000) 21:59, 4 April 2022 (EST)
- @Koreanidentity10000 do you mean the source collumn? Champ9642358 (talk) 21:57, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Koreanidentity10000: This project focuses much more upon generalized cleanup matters that do not require a significant amount of research and language translation comparisons. This aspect of your request is for rather detailed work such as this, and would be much more suited to post at the Guild of Copy editors requests page at WP:GOCER, or perhaps at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Korea. This project does focus upon citation formatting, so the latter part of your post may potentially receive some response from members of this project. North America1000 14:10, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
- List of cult films - The individual alphabetized pages each have page layout problems, most of them with an extra blank column. Spectrallights (talk) 22:20, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

- Differentiable manifold Reasoning for the cleanup request:
- Error message "Script warning: One or more} {{cite journal}} templates have errors; messages may be hidden"; I don't know the correct CSS to view the messages (see Help talk:CS1 errors#Controlling error message display.)
- The text does not have a consistent style; sometimes it uses {{math}} and sometimes it uses
<math>...</math>
- There was an inconsistency between the use of \phi and \varphi, which I corrected, but I'm not sure whether I selected the best alternative. See Talk:Differentiable manifold#Inconsistent rendering of Phi]
- --Shmuel (Seymour J.) Metz Username:Chatul (talk) 11:22, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Mara_E._Rudman Reasoning for the cleanup request is that the article requires each substantive fact here requires a reliable independent source, although I have mentioned all reliable sources but still it's been rejected can someone help me out on this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Elisafrag (talk • contribs) 18:17, 2022 March 30 (UTC)

- Joseph in Islam - This article is in some ways very good and detailed, but has a serious tone problem and reads primarily like an essay. I'm not entirely sure where to begin editing it, especially since it seems like it has been the subject of several POV editing battles by somewhat inexperienced editors. I humbly ask for help. (Also if you think I should bring concerns about this article somewhere else, I'd gladly take suggestions.) - - mathmitch7 (talk/contribs) 14:50, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
- XACML - where do i even start? empty sections, mess of external links in body, and stuff that looks like it was copied out of a manual. 晚安 (トークページ) 10:56, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

February 2022
- Drug-Free_Workplace_Act_of_1988 - Reasoning for the cleanup request is that the article has poor grammar and style, much of the information in the article isn't clearly in its sources, some links are dead, and the article doesn't adequately describe the law and its impacts.97.121.187.67 (talk) 05:55, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

- 2022 Glasgow City Council election - Mainly consists of empty tables, one of the main sources is a dead link Helloimahumanbeing (talk) 18:35, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

- Helloimahumanbeing (talk) 16:55, 16 February 2022 (UTC) Partly done I did some minor cleanup, removing a couple uncited sections without much value
- Negative and positive rights This article needs help as it has multiple issues. The question is-- where to start? Can we get a cleanup? Edunoramus (talk) 18:57, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
- Comment: That article is an inappropriate synthesis of two different topics, and putting them together in one article is not just original research but a basic compare-and-contrast exercise that you would get from a college paper assignment. The hatnote at the top of the article is inaccurate because these two terms really are synonymous with negative liberties and positive liberties. I recommend complete deletion, and can start a nomination myself unless anyone here objects. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 00:51, 10 April 2022 (UTC)
- Logos This page is messy in terms of formatting. There are broader editorial issues that are outlined on the talk page. But, to start, it would be great to have someone look at this page from the cleanup perspective. Edunoramus (talk) 19:01, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

- Artificial Intelligence for Environment & Sustainability - This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is source formatting. Besides, some sources are too closely associated with the subject, potentially preventing the article from being verifiable and neutral. aoescala (talk) 14:03, 24 January 2022 (UTC)
- Champ9642358 (talk) 01:34, 8 February 2022 (UTC) Partly done I fixed one spelling error. Not much, still needs a lot of work.
- Emily Kame Kngwarreye - Considered Australia's most important artist but Wikipedia's article is mostly un-cited and full of formatting errors. Article needs to be significantly pruned so the majority of the info on the page is verified, then rebuilt by a subject matter expert. Akkeri (talk) 08:20, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

- Less Unless (talk) 20:31, 16 February 2022 (UTC) Partly done - added many sources, removed tags, corrected ref errors. Looks better now.

- Sustainable Urban Development Network - basically an advertisement, overly promotional, copy-editing, I don't even know where to begin Siguida (talk) 02:16, 19 January 2022 (UTC)
- PandersonTV (talk) 11:59, 8 March 2022 (UTC) Partly done | Removed promotional language from first paragraph and lead section.

- 2020s in fashion -
bare URL in references andsome copy editing needed. Tinton5 (talk) 20:51, 16 January 2022 (UTC)
- North America1000 08:13, 17 January 2022 (UTC) Partly done Bare urls have been fixed.
- Sennheiser - COI editor had a field day with this article, still sounds excessively promotional after outright deletion of much of the cruft. Padgriffin Griffin's Nest 01:32, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
- Ben Spencer (politician) - Article looks to me to be quite clearly written by Spencer (uk politician) or a member of his team; two sections (political career and constituency priorities) are entirely unsourced and consist entirely of complimentary political talk. Entire article uses his first name. Even if it's not written by him the article definetely doesn't sound neutral so could do with a bit of cleanup in my opinion --SquidSquad77 (talk) 19:52, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- looking better now that one offending section has been removed but could still do with some work --SquidSquad77 (talk) 01:09, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
- Team Apache - 1998 flight simulator video game. Has excessive gameplay detail and tone issues; portions of of the gameplay description sound like a review, e.g. discussing the pros and cons of the game. Waxworker (talk) 06:24, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

- The Heatwave - British production crew from London. Needs careful evaluation of sources, most of them look like trivial mentions at unreliable sources. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 12:45, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Yuri Falik - Russian composer. Spooky design. Bad translation from Russian.--Владимир Бежкрабчжян (talk) 08:42, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- Check for copyright vio from original/first version of the article. I suspect copyvio from The New Grove Dictionary of Music and Musicians. I don't have a copy to check and misplaced my link to a copyright-checking tool. Platonk (talk) 10:47, 12 December 2021 (UTC)
- List of Sundance Film Festival selections - Formatting and wikilinking issues. Wikilinks in section headers that aren't particularly pertinent. Last decade is basically links to other articles, but prior to that are huge tables. Probably duplicate information (films listed in both another article plus listed here). Platonk (talk) 03:29, 10 December 2021 (UTC)
- Note: See discussion on project's talk page. — WILDSTARTALK 23:46, 16 December 2021 (UTC)
Sofia Alexander - Mexican producer and voice actor. Lots of trivia, largerly unreferenced, contains unreliable sources.--Bbarmadillo (talk) 13:54, 4 December 2021 (UTC)
- Struck the above. The article was significantly overhauled on 9 December 2021 (diff), and the Unreliable sources and Original research templates were removed from atop the article in the process. North America1000 18:57, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
November 2021
- Superfund Group - bare urls in the text and in ref section. Less Unless (talk) 10:44, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
- Fixed A bit more cleanup needed, as the copy is very promotional in style. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:40, 1 December 2021 (UTC)
- The Wretched Life of Juanita Narboni - Moroccan film, several cases of WP:REFBOMB. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 06:57, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
- Magic Knight - Fictional knight that stars in a series of 80's computer games. The article has tone issues, and alternates between being about the character itself, and the game series it stars in as a whole. Original research and slight gamecruft issues. Waxworker (talk) 14:38, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
- Cueva de las Manos – The article needs source formatting cleanup. More specifically, the article needs standardization of references, per Talk:Cueva de las Manos#Pre-FAC comments and Talk:Cueva de las Manos#Reference formatting on its talk page. I am currently working on this already, but I need assistance. Thank you for your help! Best, Tyrone Madera (talk) 19:28, 22 November 2021 (UTC)
- Police vehicles in the United States and Canada - Article is predominantly sourced from content found at policecararchives.org (a self-published online database) which is not cited but mentioned only in the external link section. Article is mostly uncited, and it has been this way since it was created in 2006, having gone through a series of expansions with several other online self-published websites/databases. See this 2010 version. Probably should be AfD'd, but could use another pair of eyes for evaluation to see if it could be cleaned up (with a chainsaw trimming job). Platonk (talk) 02:27, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
- Appreciation Index - There are quite a few broken links here and there in this article that need some updating, as the information provided talks about the average AIs from a decade ago and needs to be updated to be more recent. Pahiy (talk) 21:21, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- Neustar - the History section needs rewriting - almost every sentence starts with dates (WP:PROSELINE) and it's really choppy and repetitive. Bridget (talk) 16:07, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- Bbarmadillo (talk) 18:03, 3 December 2021 (UTC) Partly done shortened a bit. --
- Karim Benzema - This protected GA contains a section with an excessive amount of citations. A slight trimming would do nicely. — WILDSTARtalk 12:59, 4 November 2021 (UTC)
Akhtar Mohiuddin - No references provided for any information and there is no structure to the article- Hamza Ali Shah (Talk) 00:06, 7 November 2021 (UTC)- Done removed irrelevant information and improved article. Hamza Ali Shah 07:32, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

- Music of the African diaspora + Black music. In the context of music, the articles refer to the same thing, and probably either need to be reworked to make the difference between the entities clear, or the articles should be merged. List of musical genres of the African diaspora (which is probably also needs to be cleaned up) also indicates that there is no difference between the entries at the moment. Solidest (talk) 15:59, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: I would support a merge of those two articles if you'd like to formally propose it (WP:MERGEPROP). ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:02, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
- Social class in France the article looks like a draft - do you think it should be draftified? Moreover there's some issue with tagging and text. Less Unless (talk) 15:06, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: @Less Unless: I evaluated the article and placed my findings on its talk page. Platonk (talk) 21:40, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- Comment: I believe that article should be nominated for deletion. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 16:05, 2 November 2021 (UTC)

- Sol Kumin - Contains too much information (including lists of top racehorses he owns) and lean that might be better suited for a personal website and not a Wikipedia page. WP:COPYEDIT, MOS:LIST, WP:NEUTRAL. JRHorse (talk) 13:34, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- Platonk (talk) 01:56, 24 September 2021 (UTC) Partly done. I did a major copyedit on the article, but no major trim. Details on article's talk page.
- Thomas & Friends merchandise - Unorganized and unsourced. An absolute mess of an article. Green Shy Guy 54 (talk) 15:06, 21 September 2021 (UTC)
- South Yorkshire Transport - Tagging because while I thought this had only one section that was biased, it appears the entire article, written in 2007, massively fails WP:NPOV, barely makes use of one source and seems to have been written with some sort of malice by the original creator - see recently deleted entry on competition between companies. Would like some pointers on where I can go with it, or perhaps a decision on scrapping the article entirely and starting anew/merge it into either South Yorkshire Passenger Transport Executive/First South Yorkshire. For those in the know, should I write about Mainline in that article or does that go in First South Yorkshire? Unsure if this should go here, but worth a shot at discussing. Hullian111 (talk) 21:32, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

- Romani society and culture - article contains large spelling, grammatical, and stylistic errors, significant unsubstantiated claims and overly biased assertions (especially in relation to the origin of the Romani people), and overall unencyclopedic formatting and tone.

- Love Showdown (Archie Comics) – A rather notable Archie Comics storyline from the mid-1990s, the article may be in the territory of fancruft and original research.
I'm thinking with a few citations (articles about the storyline that the only Internet Archive citation mentioned in passing, the aftermath of the storyline, and its impact years later.) could help expand the article.Pahiy (talk) 14:05, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- List of LGBTQ Academy Award winners and nominees#Citations – See description there.--Hildeoc (talk) 14:14, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Most importantly, needs citations to establish WP:NOTE (if not, would move to delete).Good chunk of the article does not appear to adhere to WP:NPOV and shouts WP:SOAP.Lots of copy edits needed.JRHorse (talk) 03:29, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

- Teleserye - similar problems, with lots of fancruft and requires verification. There were proposals to merge it with telenovela, but nothing's come of it. Can someone have a look at this? Image2012 (talk) 12:28, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
- List of The Loud House characters - fancruft,
prone to vandalism and edit warring,and could also need some good sourcing. Image2012 (talk) 09:23, 23 July 2021 (UTC)

- Less Unless (talk) 10:56, 4 July 2021 (UTC) Partly done - trimmed a bit, added an advert tag - the article looks very promotional to me, but as I am not competent in the sphere, I'd prefer someone else take a look at it.
Partly done —
- Seijuu Sentai Gingaman - This article is among several other articles related to Super Sentai that contains original research and fancruft issues with issues for this dating back to March 2008. I would trim it myself but afraid to have the pitchforks from some fans come after me if the section detailing the characters and arsenal is better suitable for RangerWiki is trimmed down. But in my opinion, it seriously needs to be trimmed for general audiences to understand better. Pahiy (talk) 18:43, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

- Insufficient justification - Needs slight adjustment in the tone of the article. It was written as if it was a school assignment. AbhigyaDahal (talk) 08:55, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
- Language interoperability - about programming language interoperability. An important concept with a low quality article. At least the grammar needs to be fixed, but it would be good to rewrite the entire thing. The section about VMs seems unrelated to me. Akeosnhaoe (talk) 06:14, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

- Bontang – Just undergo some restructuring and rewriting, need cleanup (idk what to cleanup tho but it looks a bit messy), thanks. Nyanardsan (talk) 22:21, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
- Bradster763 (talk) 17:11, 1 May 2021 (UTC) Partly done Fixed spelling and grammar issues throughout the article.
- Dennis the Menace (U.S. comics) - An American comic strip about a mischievous boy named Dennis, not to be confused with a similar British strip of the same name. Fancruft and tone issues, as well as reliance on primary sources - a good chunk of the references on the article are the comic itself or unsuitable refs such as IMDB or the Grand Comics Database, which I'm not sure of the reliability of. I've already removed some particuilarly inappropriate refs such as links to search results on Bing. Waxworker (talk) 16:57, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
- Schrödinger's cat in popular culture - Examples of the thought experiment Schrödinger's cat in pop culture. Excessive pop culture trivia that is uncited or cites itself, and there are inappropriate sources like Amazon and Facebook. I already removed an inappropriate section titled "merchandise", as it consisted of a bunch of links to buy shirts with Schrödinger's cat on them on sites like ThinkGeek. Waxworker (talk) 14:08, 20 April 2021 (UTC)
Comment: - How would everyone here feel about nominating this article for deletion? It breaks a lot of rules on indiscriminate fan trivia and unreliable sources.---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 14:46, 3 July 2021 (UTC)- The above suggestion has not attracted any support so it's off the table. The article seems to have some semi-regular editors who add things periodically, so cleaning it up might work better in the form of discussions with them at the article's talk page. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (TALK|CONTRIBS) 20:44, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- In fact, I am considering taking it to AfD, as there is just one appropriately sourced statement about it in general and exactly one appropriately sourced statement about a specific case (that is, the source is independent, though it's a brief mention), so the only way I see to clean this up with the current sourcing is to remove 98% of the article.

- Johnson & Johnson#Coronavirus (COVID-19) - This section just sloppy. Tense errors like thinking September 2020's in the future. Lots of small paragraphs that were added when they were fresh. Poor transitions. In short, a lot of additions as the news came out, but it really needs to be thought through, molded into sensible paragraphs—stuff like that. Maybe it can just be stripped down since there's a full article about this? Thmazing (talk) 07:08, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
- Gals Panic - A Japanese series of erotic games predominately released for arcades. Massive amounts of uncited gamecruft - article is insanely long for what it is. Waxworker (talk) 22:52, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hadas Thier - American socialist and book author. I thought about AfD, but she may be notable. The article definitely needs a cleanup. --Bbarmadillo (talk) 06:05, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
- Bbarmadillo (talk) 19:55, 25 April 2021 (UTC) Partly done Checked the publications and removed less important ones, checked book reviews and removed promo citations from the publisher. --
- Comment: Hi Viséan: The article has received some attention, on 3 April 2021 (UTC) from ThinkHat, which was denoted with an edit summary stating "Clean up" (diff). Did this address your concerns? North America1000 15:08, 13 April 2021 (UTC)
