User script to detect unreliable sources

Main page: User:Headbomb/unreliable

I have (with the help of others) made a small user script to detect and highlight various links to unreliable sources and predatory journals. Some of you may already be familiar with it, given it is currently the 39th most imported script on Misplaced Pages. The idea is that it takes something like

  • John Smith "Article of things" Deprecated.com. Accessed 2020-02-14. (John Smith "" ''Deprecated.com''. Accessed 2020-02-14.)

and turns it into something like

It will work on a variety of links, including those from {{cite web}}, {{cite journal}} and {{doi}}.

The script is mostly based on WP:RSPSOURCES, WP:NPPSG and WP:CITEWATCH and a good dose of common sense. I'm always expanding coverage and tweaking the script's logic, so general feedback and suggestions to expand coverage to other unreliable sources are always welcomed.

Do note that this is not a script to be mindlessly used, and several caveats apply. Details and instructions are available at User:Headbomb/unreliable. Questions, comments and requests can be made at User talk:Headbomb/unreliable.

Clearing out Category:Unknown-importance Buddhism articles

Category:Unknown-importance Buddhism articles currently has 1,500 entries in it. Similar to how Category:Unassessed Buddhism articles has been cleared out and as of writing is completely empty, I'd like to make it so that this category is also empty, so if anyone would like to join me in chipping away at these 1,500 unknown-importance articles I think we could make relatively quick work of it. - Aoidh (talk) 18:59, 22 July 2022 (UTC)

As an update, I've been whittling down the category and it's now at 500 entries. At this rate it should be empty within a month or so. - Aoidh (talk) 23:33, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
Now down to 250 entries. - Aoidh (talk) 15:12, 8 October 2022 (UTC)

Rebirth and Brahmanism

Could it be that the Buddha used a Brahmanical view of rebirth, but gave his own twist to it, as he did with other concepts? That is, the Brahmanical concept of re-embodiment of some atman, reinterpreted as the rebirth of ego? Joshua Jonathan -Let's talk! 02:43, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
