Hi. Could you please now refrain from creating short stubs of little or no encyclopedic value. It is causing concern for the other editors who have clean up and talk to you about it. Unfortunately this is the last time we will ask you. If you continue, the community will discuss the best way to proceed.

Nomination of Public image of Donald Trump for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Public image of Donald Trump is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Public image of Donald Trump (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. — JFG talk 09:12, 6 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

MfD on ACE

The first sentence of your posts, "User:VQuakr, Slate Star Codex was made 2 hours ago." is duly noted; I can strike/update the verbage of my nomination accordingly. The rest of your statements at the MfD indicate to me that you are too emotionally invested in this subject for you to productively contribute to the deletion discussion. Vipul requested userfication of deleted articles and then added INDEX tags to increase search engine visibility, in at least one instance, because he was explicitly paid to do so. Neither I nor any neutral editor is going to care about your personal endorsement of an editor's motivations, and it is hard for me to imagine such an endorsement having any bearing on the result of a deletion discussion.

At a minimum, please keep the drama relegated to talk space. VQuakr (talk) 03:53, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Vipul requested userfication of deleted articles and then added INDEX tags to increase search engine visibility, in at least one instance, because he was explicitly paid to do so" VQuakr, what is this one instance you speak of? Please link me to it. Ethanbas (talk) 03:56, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why? VQuakr (talk) 04:07, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
You accuse Vipul and Riceissa of doing something malicious; I want to see the proof. Ethanbas (talk) 04:09, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
And you have a history of tag teaming the exact articles in question. Your attempt to play dumb is quite transparent. VQuakr (talk) 04:14, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Where's the proof for your smearing attempt, VQuakr? Should be pretty easy to give, but for *some reason*, you're playing games with me! Ethanbas (talk) 04:17, 17 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

professors

If you;d like to do some completely non-controversial help, you might go to the stubs you have been entering for various mostly European professors, and add at least their academic degrees, and the titlesof the books (not articles) that they have written. DGG ( talk ) 05:09, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I think I only made 4 articles on professors, and they're all Israeli Ethanbas (talk) 05:33, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The articles are Ariel Merari, Esther Meir-Glitzenstein, Renee Poznanski, Gerald Blidstein (for my own reference too) Ethanbas (talk) 05:36, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I implemented your suggestions to a certain extend; but I'm not really interested in working on these articles further :P Ethanbas (talk) 06:32, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Ethanbas:Dysejaculation. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Dysejaculation. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Dysejaculation – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 05:50, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Disruptive IP

About this: Yes, I know, Ethanbas, I had already checked their range. Unfortunately the range seems to be used quite a lot for constructive editing, which probably isn't the same person. So, as much as I like blocking people,[1] I hesitate to block the range (though I may, if they continue to disrupt). Blocking the individual fluctuating IPs isn't much use, I'm afraid. I can semiprotect your page if you like. Bishonen | talk 17:28, 25 March 2017 (UTC).[reply]

A tag has been placed on Gauti Eggertsson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://voxeu.org/users/gautibeggertsson0. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:31, 8 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. I have no objections to your page movie -- in fact, I think it's a better title from an NPOV perspective even if the content isn't changed. However, if you truly expect that the move will be undone, you should have followed the appropriate procedure described at WP:Requested moves#Requesting controversial and potentially controversial moves. Just a suggestion for future reference. Thank you. — MShabazz Talk/Stalk 16:07, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

List of Lehi members

Hi there are only 15 members on this list and 10 already on the other page. Why do you think there is a need for a separate page. WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS is not really a good argument. Domdeparis (talk) 16:53, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Lehi was an important organization, and many of its members went on to be important in Israel. The issue is that Lehi has significantly less material on it in the English language than in Hebrew. I think the main article can list the members who are important enough that they have Wikipedia articles, while the separate list article can list many more notable members who perhaps don't have anything written about them in English. Ethanbas (talk) 16:59, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
FWIW Domdeparis, http://lehi.org.il seems like the authoritative Hebrew source on Lehi, and it's what I'll be using to add people to the list. Ethanbas (talk) 17:00, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
To be on the list the members have to be notable themselves as per WP:LISTS. I really feel that unless there are a large number of notable people that were members this WP:STANDALONE list is not necessary which is why I created the redirect. You have already added a person that does not have his own WP page so in reality there are just 14 notable members for the moment which is better kept on the main article page. When the list become unwieldy then a separate article is needed. For the moment the article is superfluous. Domdeparis (talk) 17:08, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Domdeparis https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability#Stand-alone_lists "Because the group or set is notable, the individual items in the list do not need to be independently notable" Ethanbas (talk) 17:14, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Putting commanders who aren't notable enough to have their own article isn't appropriate for the main article, but it is appropriate for the list I created, and it's in fact one of the major purposes of the list. Ethanbas (talk) 17:16, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe you want to focus your time on things like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_al-Qaeda_members? :P Ethanbas (talk) 17:18, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Domdeparis I added some stuff to List of Lehi members. I'm busy with my final exams now, so that will be all for now. Ethanbas (talk) 17:40, 3 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ethan I've left a comment on the deletion talk page with my POV. We'll see how that pans out. If it is redirected rather than being deleted there is the that the work that has already gone into it is not lost it is kept in the history and you can continue to work in your sandbox finding and sourcing and writing about other members as per the criteria of WP:LISTPEOPLE and then when you think it's ready edit the redirect with a discussion on the talk page to justify your changes. Happy editing and good luck with your exams. Domdeparis (talk) 09:52, 6 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. This article needs more references to sources that provide substantial coverage from independent, reliable sources.

Speedy deletion nomination of Frida Ghitis

Hello Ethanbas,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Frida Ghitis for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.

Ways to improve Nook in the Brain

Hi, I'm Zakhx150. Ethanbas, thanks for creating Nook in the Brain!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Please include in-line citations into the article from reliable, secondary sources to ensure notability.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Pillows

Why not expand that Pillows article if its so important to you? See WP:MOSALBUM for album article guidelines. --Jennica / talk 06:31, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

User:Jennica, there is the issue of me not speaking Japanese, so it's difficult for me to interpret Japanese language materials. However, I generally follow an article creation philosophy of creating mostly stub/short articles that meet notability criteria and are unlikely to be deleted (because they met notability criteria, even if they are very short/stubby). Some people like this, some don't. I would say maybe 25% of these short/stubby articles become full articles within 6 months (many person articles I create do; another notable example are the presidential timelines, thanks solely to the efforts of user Informant16). I find that this is the easiest/best way for me to contribute to Wikipedia; I generally do not have the interest/motivation to write beyond a stub, even for articles on a band I'm a big fan of. A number of Wikipedians have opposed my stub creations in the past; however, most survive AfDs (not to mention speedies and PRODs), although I don't really like it when a stub I create generates a long AfD discussion. So, this is some of my thinking. Ethanbas (talk) 08:05, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Example of recent stub I created that generated a long AfD: Eric Katz. This AfD isn't as bad as usual though, because it may have some value by helping nuance what WP:ACADEMIC covers. Ethanbas (talk) 08:07, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Ethanbas I think you should start these articles in draft space and work on expanding them. Google translate will translate full pages. If there is no other coverage though, I am afraid it is eligible for deletion or becoming a redirect. It's not supposed to be an insult to you. There needs to be chart, sales, or reviews. Upon a quick search I cannot fin dany of those, therefore it's non-notable and shouldn't be on wiki. --Jennica / talk 08:35, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I couldn't find anything either User:Jennica, so I'll leave the article redirected. Ethanbas (talk) 15:53, 21 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Could you please now refrain from creating short stubs of little or no encyclopedic value. It is causing concern for the other editors who have clean up and talk to you about it. Unfortunately this is the last time we will ask you. If you continue, the community will discuss the best way to proceed. ThanksKudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:44, 22 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
