Welcome to New Page Patrol!

Welcome, Novem Linguae to the New Page Patrol team. Congratulations on receiving the New Page Patrol user permission and on becoming a part of the patroller community. Our mission is to accurately, rather than quickly, handle the new articles which are created. As you begin to patrol it's natural to have lots of questions. Feel free to ask on my talk page or ask for thoughts in the New Page Patroller IRC channel #wikimedia-npp connect or on our Discord server (invite link). We also regularly discuss issues and topics surrounding New Page Patrolling at the NPP discussion page and I would invite you to join us there. If you have any questions please feel free to ask me. I hope you find NPP as rewarding as I do and, again, welcome to the community. Barkeep49 (talk) 14:39, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

rollback

Hi Novem Linguae. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

• Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
• Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
• Rollback should never be used to edit war.
• If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
• Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Beeblebrox (talk) 20:49, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

European Association for Biometrics

Hi, I have improved, sourced, would you mind to have a look if it's better? Regards, LukaszKatlewa (talk) 08:08, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

LukaszKatlewa, hello friend. I took a look at your new sources. Remember, we need multiple paragraphs of coverage in high quality sources like newspapers and books. The sources you added have issues with reliability and secondary coverage. WP:GNG talks about this a bit. I am duty bound to AFD this. It's nothing personal, all English Wikipedia articles get reviewed, and this one happened to be in my queue. Feel free to post in the AFD discussion. Take care. –Novem Linguae (talk) 09:29, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

Ryan Rodrigs

Hi! I've noticed that you have proposed the above article that I accepted in AfC for deletion. I don't entirely object the fact that it is not really that notable and I would not be against it if you go on with the PROD, but I just want to tell you I have approved the article based on the Ottawa Business Journal source and I find the source acceptable since it talks about him and they are not just passing mentions. Nevertheless, I agree that the sources you named are not that reliable. Any thoughts? Thanks and happy editing! WikiAviator ^talk 02:11, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

WikiAviator. Hey there. Thanks for the comment. I agree that the Ottawa Business Journal source is the best source currently in the article. Assuming that one is independent enough, and assuming the other two are not, then we are short of three GNG passing sources. I have no objections if you or anybody removes the prod. However I am confident enough in this one that if the prod is removed, I'd probably AFD it. Nothing personal, it was just in the NPP queue and I happened to run across it. Happy editing. –Novem Linguae (talk) 17:12, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

Oh, I'll add that I think Toronto.com and CBC News are reliable and are significant coverage. My issue is 100% with the "independence" aspect of WP:GNG. I was taught that an article that is mostly quotes is not independent enough to pass that part of GNG. –Novem Linguae (talk) 17:15, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

For the CBC source, it returned with a 404. For the Ottawa one, although it is mostly quotes, it is still counted as "significant coverage" since there are still some descriptions. I think this a borderline case and I find it hard to decide too. Perhaps I will remove the PROD and you can propose it for AfD to get a better picture of community consensus. Thanks! :) WikiAviator ^talk 02:07, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Pound Sterling Article

31.216.120.161 (talk) 13:30, 26 April 2021 (UTC)Hello Novem, I received a message that the added link to the article Pound sterling is not appropriate so it was removed. Please have a look again. I would like to add a reference to the word "Cable" it is a term used in currency trading so the hyperlink redirects to a financial blog that explains it and gives more examples of such jargon words. Please elaborate on why the reference and links were removed. See the link again attached: https://www.orbex.com/blog/en/2016/05/this-is-how-professional-forex-trades-speak31.216.120.161 (talk) 13:30, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

Hey there. Thansk for the note. Couple of issues with your edit. [3]. 1) We should not put external links in the article body, only in the "External links" section at the bottom. 2) We should not put external links, Wikilinks, or references in section headings. That goes against our normal article formatting style. 3) We should not use blogs as they are WP:SELFPUBLISH and not a reliable source. Reliable sources are things like newspapers and books. Here's a list to give you an idea. WP:RSPSOURCES. Hope that helps. Happy editing. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:36, 26 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello,

Thank you for reaching back. I understand that we cannot put citations on the titles. Would you mind elaborating on how it is different to make references 72 and 76 as already in the Pound sterling article, that redirects to OANDA, a broker as well? The blog that I add links to is written by experts in their field that were awarded as Best Research Team. For more information, you can see their biographies. Please mind that the same were cites in media as Bloomberg, etc. so I do believe that the information will be accurate and relevant for the Wikipedia audience. Thank you for your consideration. 213.140.205.158 (talk) 07:11, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Hello friend. I'm not seeing anything obvious in Google News searches that indicates that Adrian Filip is regarded as an expert in his industry. There is an "expert" exception to WP:SELFPUBLISH, but it used rarely, and needs to be supported by evidence. The Oanda citation is to data, which is better than a blog, but might also need to be replaced. Anyway, just my advice. Take care. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:54, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

GNG

Hi. GNG requires "more than a trivial mention, but it does not need to be the main topic of the source material." It does not require "multiple" (not three) sources, of three paragraphs each. There is a great difference between what GNG requires in this regard, and your personal view. --2603:7000:2143:8500:E859:840:B60B:D974 (talk) 17:36, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Smell training

On 5 May 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Smell training, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that smell training is being used to treat long-term loss of smell after COVID-19 infection? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Smell training. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Smell training), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

You declined Draft:Habitation and Logistics Outpost (Gateway Module). It is a draft being worked on by the Mir, ISS, and Gateway task force at WikiProject Spaceflight.

It is completely irrelevant for a review who or how many people have requested an article, even if Jimbo in person would have requested it and I am pretty sure that they requested more than just a simple copy & paste of a PR newsrelease. CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:16, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

Revert of recent edits to Representational state transfer

Hi Novem Linguae,

You have recently reverted my week’s work on the article Representational state transfer, claiming that they may violate copyright. This is not the case, as Roy Fielding states explicitly on the site hosting his doctoral dissertation (https://www.ics.uci.edu/~fielding/pubs/dissertation/faq.htm):

Copying or printing this work

You may have noticed that I have included a copyright statement of "All rights reserved" on all pages of this HTML edition. The purpose of that is to make it clear who owns the copyright (me) so that you don't go asking the University of California or UMI (the microfiche archive company) for the following permission.

I, Roy Thomas Fielding, hereby grant permission to You, whoever you may be, to copy, print, or otherwise reproduce this dissertation for non-commercial use (including classroom, research, government use, or anything covered by the usual notion of "fair use") in its original PDF edition, 2-up PDF edition, or HTML edition, or excerpts thereof, provided that any such reproduction includes the full reference to this work, as described below, either on the initial page of the reproduction or by citation to a list of references within a larger work.

If you would like to reproduce this work for commercial purposes, as in selling it as a book or a significant part of a published compilation, then you will have to ask for my permission separately.

So could we restore my work?

Best regards,

Maggyero (talk) 17:37, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi Maggyero. Thanks for the explanation, I did not see that. I do not think that this copyright license is permissive enough, as there is a clear "© Roy Thomas Fielding, 2000. All rights reserved." at the bottom of the source page, and also "educational use only" licenses are not usually considered permissive enough to use at Wikipedia. But I am not an expert on this, so I am happy to ping Diannaa for a second opinion, if she's available and willing. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:00, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

That's not a compatible license, because it does not allow commercial use, and our license allows any use whatsoever, including commercial use.— Diannaa 🇨🇦 (talk) 21:58, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

@Diannaa: Thank you. So what is the process now? Can I submit a copyright compliant version this weekend? Maggyero (talk) 22:39, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Hey Maggyero. I already removed the problem text from the article and submitted a request for revision deletion. The old revisions will be hidden from view. If you continue work on the article, you will need to make sure that you do not use copy pasted text. Please use the current, copyright compliant version as a base. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:42, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for you help. I will better paraphrase. Could I request your review when I am done? Maggyero (talk) 23:48, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

Maggyero, sure. Two tips, if I may. 1) Check this tool every once in awhile to make sure your additions aren't setting off the copyright detector. 2) Consider using the existing structure of the article as a base, rather than doing a complete re-write. Small, incremental changes are more likely to be found acceptable. –Novem Linguae (talk) 04:17, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the tool suggestion, I really like that tool. What is the maximal similarity percentage of the copyright detector for an acceptable article on Wikipedia? Maggyero (talk) 09:08, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Maggyero, best to examine the red highlighted text on the left. Only quotes and proper nouns should be highlighted. Once you get over like 5 unquoted words in a row highlighted, that's getting into copy paste territory, which isn't permitted. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 12:27, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

I see. Thanks for you help. Maggyero (talk) 16:42, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

"Nothing personal" – does that still apply?

A while ago, you said "nothing personal". It was when you moved "video game piracy" article back to its original title, I think. Does that still apply? I don't feel happy at all right now. I don't feel happy in general. Do you think that I'm trying to be disruptive? You have no obligation to believe me but I promise you I'm not. I've seen a problem and I'm trying to fix it. Is it my wording that causes me to fail? Or is it something else? Please help me. This situation is depressing. DesertPipeline (talk) 04:32, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

DesertPipeline, hello. Yeap, nothing personal still applies. I think you're a good person and I think you're editing in good faith. I do not think you're being intentionally disruptive. You're not edit warring, and you're keeping most of this on talk pages, which is good. I am just not comfortable having this "software piracy" POV stuff in mainspace or in a Wikipedia essay that gives advice to users. My view has solidified on this since we last talked, because this issue has come up on 3 talk pages that I'm following, and if I recall correctly multiple editors have sided against this POV, and not a single editor has sided with this POV. Also, we asked you to userfy your POV essay Wikipedia:Loaded words and terms on Wikipedia, and you declined, so the next logical step is MFD.

Is it my wording that causes me to fail? Or is it something else? The core problem is that reliable sources are fine with the phrase "software piracy", but you are not. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. We are a WP:TERTIARY source that summarizes what WP:SECONDARY sources (such as newspapers and books) say. We do not get to decide these things ourselves. We must summarize what reliable secondary sources say. It is OK to have a personal POV, we all do. But it is not OK to let it show in our editing. We must always remain neutral in the sense that we survey what secondary sources say about something, then we cover the ideas proportionally. Please see WP:WEIGHT and WP:NPOV. –Novem Linguae (talk) 07:48, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Then should I give up trying to fix things here and simply focus on the real world? DesertPipeline (talk) 07:51, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi DesertPipeline. In my personal opinion, I think you should give up on editing your personal list of loaded words out of articles. A strong consensus seems to have formed against that. However you are of course welcome to help out doing pretty much anything and everything else. For example, your talk page says you enjoy copy editing, so that'd be a great area to jump into. Just be receptive to feedback and you'll be fine. It may seem like it's a bunch of people posting their personal opinions and corrections on talk pages, but there's actually a lot of written and unwritten norms around here. If an experienced editor is making the post, it is often not an attempt to bully you into following an opinion, but rather to let you know what the norm is around here. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:05, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Thank you. I was too vague in my comment though; I meant should I stop trying to fix things here relating to these words and instead try to solve the problem in the real world itself? DesertPipeline (talk) 08:07, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

DesertPipeline, yes, I think that'd be a good idea. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:12, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Okay; thank you. I have no idea how I'm going to do that, especially with the CVD-19 pandemic still going on, but I don't want to do nothing about all the problems in the world. DesertPipeline (talk) 08:16, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

DesertPipeline, hmm, maybe start a blog on WordPress.com or something similar? Or maybe see if GNU has a forum/Discord and participate there? –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:29, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

I'm not sure if I trust WordPress; if I were to do something like that, I'd probably want to host my own website (even though I don't have a computer I can leave on all the time for that). I've never liked Discord – it's proprietary spyware. It would be strange if any GNU community was using it. DesertPipeline (talk) 09:01, 23 May 2021 (UTC)

Allegra Mostyn-Owen

Hello, I have added one additional source from the Evening Standard as you requested for Draft:Allegra_Mostyn-Owen article. Please let me know if this will suffice. Thank you. --Death Star Central (talk) 08:01, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Death Star Central, thanks for your work on the article. This new source appears to be based off an interview (lots of quotes), so arguably is not independent. Also, it being from the same newspaper as one of the other GNG sources is also not ideal (ideally, all 3 should be different). It doesn't quite pass my threshold yet, but I am happy to leave it in the queue for another reviewer. Or you could also add some additional sources and I'll take another look. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 08:21, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Death Star Central, thanks for that source. I obtained a copy through WP:RX and read it. I am concerned that the author has too close a relationship to the article subject (talks about going places with her), OR that the entire article is a submission from a reader (says "Email yasmin with your life-affirming true stories" at the bottom). –Novem Linguae (talk) 10:33, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Qwerfjkl,  Done. I added a redirect so I don't have to keep it updated in two places. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 01:23, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

In the revert summary, you have written "bio-engineering is still considered a conspiracy theory" Nope! The 'Lab leak theory' argues about 'gain-of-function' research in Wuhan lab, it is bio-engineering! I think you meant deliberate genetic engineering of coronaviruses. Considering, her more sinister claims that the virus is a tool in Chinese biological warfare. Well, that could qualify as conspiracy theory for now. :) Neurofreak (talk) 12:58, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Lab Leak

I just wanted to say that despite taking the opposite point of view as your essay, I actually do like it. In fact I've recently ripped you off . . . twice! Cheers. Adoring nanny (talk) 02:30, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Adoring nanny, thanks for the message. I'm glad you like. I try to stay out of the edit wars and just work on my essay. Life is simpler that way :) –Novem Linguae (talk) 06:41, 18 June 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Said el Badaoui

hello i dont know what are inline citations ive read the article that you put but i still dont understand — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki editor 9004 (talk • contribs)

Wiki editor 9004. Hey there. Try adding <ref>https://url.com</ref> at the end of some sentences. Or if you're using the visual editor, try hitting the "cite" button. –Novem Linguae (talk) 12:04, 4 July 2021 (UTC)

i made some citations but the rest of the informations are taken from an interview with the coach in arabic is this enough to get the article accpeted? can yu please accept it now — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki editor 9004 (talk • contribs)

Please explain how you apply your neutral point of view

Thank you for your friendly reminder / final warning to block me. Do you mind sharing all the details of your investigation/research on PolitiFact that the source is neutral itself? When a different point of view was cited and presented, it was automatically labelled as against the neutral point of view and Vandalism and disruptive editing? Thank you in advance for the education I am looking forward to.

The same reply was also posted on [talk page]. CatchBias (talk) 21:22, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

CatchBias. Hey there. Your edits did not have the correct tone for an encyclopedia. We can't say that a publication "spread truth". Also you were edit warring, you received multiple reverts and user talk warnings yet kept repeating the same edits. That is why you were given a level 4 warning. You are welcome to suggest changes to the article on the page Talk:Guo Wengui, and if enough editors agree, changes will be made. –Novem Linguae (talk) 21:29, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

You did not answer my question. Please answer it first, so we can take it from there together - whether PolitiFact is biased and back it up. All I can see is you promote bias narrative. Also, you lack basic user-centered mindset to work in your role: you CANNOT expect new users to notice all your features all at once. All I can see if the undos in the version history which distracted me from any notifications. my biggest concern is the first undo was because of no reliable source; now the story changed to tone. What is next? Is it called inconsistency？CatchBias (talk) 22:08, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

CatchBias, PolitiFact is "generally reliable" at WP:RSPSOURCES. But as I said on your user talk page, this would be a good discussion to have at Talk:Guo Wengui. –Novem Linguae (talk) 22:35, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

According to the thesaurus, the opposite words of misinformation include, for example, "truth", so Wiki's neutral point of view means the word "disinformation" is neutral, but the opposite word "truth", a word listed as an antonym in the dictionary, is not? What is your suggestion to bring the Wall Street Journal commentary to Wiki: The Science Suggests a Wuhan Lab Leak to Wiki? Thank you. CatchBias (talk) 22:50, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Michael Amini

Thanks Novem for your edits about the links not working on my draft for Michael Amini. I';ve made the updates and the links should be live and have been numbered accordingly. Thanks again for giving my first attempt at publishing a critique. Also, please let me know if you have any other helpful tips on getting my Wikipedia for Michael Amini published., Have a great day and happy editing! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Keithduross (talk • contribs)

Keithduross. Hey there. That's better but not quite what I had in mind, so I went ahead and fixed it for you. Take a look at this to get an idea. The <ref> tag is what makes this work. Hope that helps. –Novem Linguae (talk) 00:14, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

WP article on Carlo Digilio

Good morning @Novem Linguae:, I would like to apologize for an article which probably is not in an idiomatic English. I have inspected it and just made same corrections.

There was a red wlink in the article about the Piazza Fontana bombing, so I thought the encyclopedia needed a translation of it.

I would be grateful if you or other WP users are likely to have a look to the text and made eventual further improvements. Regards, Theologian81sp (talk) 10:36, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
