Afd rationale

Your argument is specious regarding dab pages for descriptive terms. Joker contains characters named Joker or The Joker, not those described as jokers, e.g. Robin Williams. Clarityfiend (talk) 10:25, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

@Clarityfiend That's not a good comparison because, as multiple editors have said, reliable sources call these events Russo-German Wars. The best argument you could have made was that the page should be turned into a redirect to Eastern Front (World War II) because it's what the term is mostly used to designate, but that's not the discussion we were having. This is all very different from listing banana at Fruit (disambiguation), and I agree that using DABs this way would not work. The reason I brought up Joker, however, is because you said that DAB pages are used only to disambiguate titles and this I disagree with. JBchrch talk 14:26, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

What? Joker is the name/title of various characters. I have no dispute with that. Those entries, however, aren't descriptions period, end of story.

As for the Afd decision, that's just wrong, but that's another issue. MOS:DABMENTION is violated: the term doesn't appear in Eastern Front (World War I) at all and only once in Eastern Front (World War II), as the title of a book, which doesn't equate the two.

A barnstar for you!

	The Barnstar of Good Humor
	On April Fool's Day, it is good to memorialize your contribution to Nebraska v. One 1970 2-Door Sedan Rambler (Gremlin) on the main page. Your words of informed wisdom at the nomination page helped make it possible. Cheers. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 14:39, 1 April 2022 (UTC)

Creation of page "Citadel Securities"

Hi JBchrch. Just wanted to follow up as you suggested in order split the Citadel Securities page. Included in this gentle reminder is the fact that there already exists, in my user space, a version of the article which can be moved to main space if you choose. Thanks again for your help. Amandaatcitadel (talk) 13:30, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Amandaatcitadel, thanks for the reminder. I have not forgotten about this and intend to get back to it some time soon. Thanks for your patience and understanding. JBchrch talk 20:11, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

@Amandaatcitadel It's now done, see Citadel Securities. I have rewritten the lead from your draft to make it less marketing-y and more WP:WIKIVOICE-y. Let me know if you see any issues or problems. JBchrch talk 17:25, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi JBchrch. Thanks for creating the Citadel Securities article and the corresponding edits to the Citadel LLC page and Kenneth C. Griffin's page. For the sake of accuracy, could you please update the final sentence of the Citadel Securities lead to “majority owned” instead of “owned”? Happy to provide sources if you’d like.

New article Marcelo Kohen

Hi JBchrch. Thank you for rating the page I created. I am new here, so I apologise for my ignorance. I was wondering whether the fact that you rated as "start" (rather than draft) an article that has not yet been approved might have an impact in the review process. Relatedly —and, again, I am not sure if this should be asked in this way—, but could you assess my submission? Thank you. Pugliese23 (talk) 19:40, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi @Pugliese23 and thank you for your message. The changes I've made were mostly formal and cosmetic and do not prejudge the review that will be made by the people at WP:AFC in due course. I personally do not conduct such reviews so I cannot review your submission. What I can tell you is that they will assess the article in light of WP:NACADEMIC, and that they will most probably ask whether you are related to Marcelo Kohen or are compensated for your work, since the article currently reads as promotional. If that is the case, you should follow the rules at WP:COI. Feel free to let me know if you have questions about WP:COI or compensated editing since I have some experience in that area. JBchrch talk 20:10, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks so much JBchrch for your kind and prompt response! That is not the case at all: I am an international lawyer and researcher and this is the first of a number of articles that I want to create for significant personalities that are presently missing in Wikipedia — a first attempt of sorts. I didn't intend for it to look promotional (hence all the references) but would be happy to adjust. I'm just new and learning — and you've helped, so I'm most grateful. All the best.
