- Telling Vacant0. ~2026-40336-16 (talk) 15:42, 18 July 2026 (UTC)
- Please find citations from reliable sources that back up this claim. Europe Elects is not a reliable source, it is a polling aggregator. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 15:42, 18 July 2026 (UTC)
- Supporting EU membership in future? ~2026-40336-16 (talk) 15:44, 18 July 2026 (UTC)
- I can't really tell what you're saying because your English does not seem to be great, but if you want "pro-Europeanism" to be included anywhere in the article you should find a reliable source that backs this claim up. As I've said, Europe Elects is not a reliable source. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 15:46, 18 July 2026 (UTC)

Good article nominations RfC
[edit]Hi Vacant0,
There is an ongoing Request for Comment (RfC) at Wikipedia:Good article nominations/August 2026 RfC, which you may be interested in because in the past year, you have nominated or reviewed more than one good article nomination. This message has also been sent to all subscribers to the Good Article Gazette. The RfC contains many proposals (33 at the time of writing), which are split into the following categories: nominators, reviewers, reviews, volunteer roles, reviewing initiatives, and others. However, you are more than welcome to add any proposals of your own that you wish to put to the community.
By the end of September, all the proposals will have been closed by an uninvolved editor, either as a consensus for one of the options or with no consensus. At this point, editors will be invited again to develop these proposals into coherent policy and implement them.
Thank you for your contributions to the good articles project, and I look forward to your input! (in solidarity), JacobTheRox(talk|contributions) 16:03, 11 August 2026 (UTC)
