Reply of User:Neilvin John Aventurado

Hello yunshui,

I am very sorry that I created again an account. I gave my Wikipedia password to my brother, because he said that he need it to create also an article, but when I need again to open my acct., I can't open because he changed it, and he show me the vandalism he made (including the deletion of the article Manggahan High School, so I'm creating it again.. I also sorry for the vandalism he made. Don't you worry, I'll not ever create again an account and I will not give my password to others.

Can you please also give me tips to creating an article, editing, and how to use Wikipedia wisely?

Er... why? Yunshui ^雲_水 12:55, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

He's saying he gave his password to his brother...instead of having his brother make an account. Origamite^{\(·_·\)(/·_·)/} 12:56, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Oh right, sorry - I thought we were still discussing Bonkers (I wondered why you'd posted up here...). No need to worry about this one, though, it's long been sorted out. Yunshui ^雲_水 12:58, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

By the way, please explain in my talk page and let me got change to create this page next time. And help me to renew the page without not success records.

Thank you

Wikipedia is not LinkedIn. We are trying to create an encyclopedia, not a social networking site or CV database. Please do not post an article about yourself on Wikipedia again. You may use your Wikipedia userpage to communicate a limited amount of information about yourself that relates to your work on Wikipedia, but you may not use it to advertise your CV. Yunshui ^雲_水 09:11, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Alright, can this page totally delete without any notices? I mean when search on this page Kho Boon Cheng without any notices.

K.b.cheng (talk) 12:10, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

No; that isn't possible, I'm afraid. Yunshui ^雲_水 12:13, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Ya, somebody speedy deletion can totally delete without any notice when search in. Please do it for my page Kho Boon Cheng.

Thanks

K.b.cheng (talk) 07:39, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

'Fraid not. Once a page has been deleted, a search on Wikipedia for that exact page title will always bring up the deleted article page (although it will eventually drop off search engines such as Google or Bing, if that's what you're asking about). The only time this won't happen is if a new page is actually created at that title. Yunshui ^雲_水 13:05, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Seeking Adoption

Hi Yunshui, I would like you to admit me into your adoption program. Although I am a bit of an old user I would not say I know my way around entirely. I am part of the welcoming team and I receive a lot of questions from new users, in most cases I'm not in the position to give them the best of answers so what I do is to reconstruct the question on their talk page and place a "help me" tag on it. I find that most of the time the response comes from you and it's usually very good though concise. But anyway that's how you came to my attention and I thank you for all the responses that you give out. I'm an admin hopeful and I believe there are so many lessons here and there you could teach me to becoming a better Wikipedian and a successful admin one day. I am looking forward to drinking from your well of many years of experience and great contributions. Kind Regards... —Sadat (Masssly)❤Talk☮C☺Email☯ 22:16, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

I don't see why not... you're experienced enough that my adoption school is probably pitched a bit low for your skills, though if you want to make use of one or two sections to test your knowledge you are more than welcome to do so. What might work better would be if you led the way in letting me know what areas you want to improve in - helping new users is certainly a laudable goal, so you might want to pitch in at the Teahouse and the Help desk - just monitoring those pages is a good way to learn the standard solutions to new editors' most common issues. If you're looking to run for adminship at some point in the future, I can point you at the areas you'll need to work in and suggest how to approach them. Or if there's any specific element of Wikipedia's policies that you think you need more explanation on, just say the word. Look forward to working with you. Yunshui ^雲_水 09:05, 16 May 2014 (UTC)

Wow that will be great, I really enjoy interacting and helping new users and to be involved with the the Teahouse and the Help desk would suit me perfectly. On my run for adminship later I cant wait for you to point me toward those areas I need to work in. Thank you so much and sorry for my late response.—Sadat (Masssly)❤Talk☮C☺Email☯ 00:38, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Survey for editors who mentor newcomer

Dear Wikipedia Ambassador,

I am seeking input on your experience as a mentor to new Wikipedians. This survey is designed to provide insight for the development of a new mentorship support tool on Wikipedia. If you have a moment, please take this survey, it should not take more than 10 minutes of your time to complete.

https://syracuseuniversity.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_4V2SSrhU2NFOVAV

Also, if you are able to, I would greatly appreciate it if you would send the following survey to the mentee you worked with:

Informal mentorship requested

Hello Yunshui! I saw you at the WP:Teahouse and your profile caught my eye because of your O Sensei quote. I have trained Ki Society Aikido for over a decade; it's quite a journey. I like your tone and approach in your responses. I've wanted some mentorship around editing a specific controversial page - it's an alternative medicine "fringe" modality which has attracted a number of editors who are very strict (which is appropriate) but who seem to be more interested in blocking anything that's not right rather than improving the quality of the page. The result is an article that reads poorly, with some factual errors and also some serious omissions. I have educated myself on WP:MEDRS and have concluded that the scientific studies that have been done are not valid for WP health claims because they were published in non-mainstream journals, so I'm not debating that aspect. Presently I've been focusing on locating more secondary sources, mostly books from mainstream publishers, because the article lacked good citations and relied too much on a primary website. I've been slowly adding some better-written content when I feel that I can strongly justify it with my sources - I accept that anything not supported will be reverted. The experienced editors on the page are not ideal collaborators for drafts, though I recognize that some consensus will have to be reached. That's why I'd like a mentor for discussing the issues and working up drafts, so when a change is presented it is already good enough that it doesn't ruffle any feathers. Would you be willing to help me with this? --Karinpower (talk) 03:55, 26 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi Karinpower. Rolfing, eh? Not something I've much knowledge of, so I don't know how much use I would be, but I'd certainly be happy to look over any draft changes you have and give my opinion as a Wikipedian. I suggest you use your sandbox to prepare your proposed amendments - then just drop me a link here when you have something that needs looking at and I'll see what I can do. Yunshui ^雲_水 07:12, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Thanks, Yunshui! It may be a couple weeks til I have time to put something together, but I'll let you know! In the meantime, would you be willing to take a few minutes to look at the short article Rolfing and the recent history? I think it will help give you a sense of the dynamic that's happening around this page. I've edited on a handful of other pages and this is the first time I've experienced having the feeling that editors were sometimes more interested in blocking improvements that fine-tuning them. Looking forward to having your neutral perspective; in a sense it's perfect that you aren't very familiar with the topic. --Karinpower (talk) 18:03, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

CVUA mentor

Hey! I have been here for almost a year now and with 3,000 mainspace edits. I would like to learn more about how to deal vandalisms in Wikipedia because I have installed Twinkle a couple of weeks ago. Can you be my mentor in CVUA? I specialize in sports-related articles, especially in professional wrestling. Thanks and happy editing! FairyTailRocks 14:11, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Sure, why not? I've created a CVUA page for you (you can move this into your userspace if you'd prefer); have a look through the tasks there and let me know how you get on. Sports and wrestling aren't really my thing, but those articles do get a lot of vandalism, so more competent anti-vandal patrollers in that area would definitely be a good thing. Yunshui ^雲_水 14:16, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Hi Yunshui - just checking in and saying hi - hope all is well in your world :-) I think I've had my first 'wikibreak'. I didn't plan it! but life just got the better of me. Back though, I think!, and looking forward to puttering around and doing some stuff again. If it's still ok, I may hit you up with some questions as I go along again, so thanks in advance! Cheers, Depthdiver (talk) 20:29, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

And while the subject is open I should probably chip in myself. Nearly got an edit down at UAA two days ago but the guy got blocked for vandalism before I could save the report. I really need to get around to finishing the Reliable Sources, that said that's what's dragging me back, unfinished business, that said Wikipedia is always 'unfinished business' as it's never finished, maybe I need that in my motives. Ah Well, CestLaGaire as I say randomly. Hope it ain't too crazy in your area. MM (I did the who in the whatnow?) ^{(I did it!)} 23:49, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Hello adoptees. Nice to hear from you both; you're always welcome to drop by this page. There's no deadline on the adoption school, so just get around to it when you can - real life and other wikibusiness always interferes with such things, but it's not as though I torture a kitten to death for every day you don't get it finished.

Hi and a request

Hi Yunshui, I wanted you to see some work which I have done on this article. Please review it for Neutrality.--Skr15081997 (talk) 11:00, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

I don't see any glaring issues with it, certainly, although I'll confess I havn't given it a very thorough going over, just a quick read-through. I certainly wouldn't have any qualms about offering it up at WP:GAN in that state; you'll probably have to make some adjustments before it passes but it wouldn't be quick-failed that I can see. Yunshui ^雲_水 11:34, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick review, I admit some more work is needed on the article. I am glad to read that it won't be quick-failed in the present state but since it has now become so dear to me(more than 99% of the content was added by me) I won't nominate it in this state. There's a lot more that has to be added and that will definitely be done.--Skr15081997 (talk) 11:59, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Re: User:TheLittleDuke's NLT block

TheLittleDuke (talk · contribs) has now deleted the tweets and this comment on his talk page shows that he has rescinded his legal threat. Since you was the blocking admin, this block can now be lifted. —Farix (t | c) 17:00, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

The legal threat was part of the reason for blocking, and rescinding it certainly goes some way towards mitigating the necessity for a block. However, I personally am still not convinced that he has any intentions here beyond plugging his company, and I see no sign that he has understood why that isn't acceptable. I am therefore not going to lift the block - other admins who monitor Category:Requests for unblock will review it in their own time. Yunshui ^雲_水 07:31, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

I've put in a request at WP:ANI for the block to be reviewed. TheLittleDuke has an outstanding unblock request that is two days old with no action take as of yet. —Farix (t | c) 17:05, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Well, I'm not totally convinced either, but the page in question is salted against recreation, so there's probably not too much further disruption that TheLittleDuke can cause; Yunshui, would you be okay if I unblocked on more-or-less the basis of "sure, why not" (with a long statement I'll write regarding notability as it pertains to Wikipedia, AfC, etc.) ?

Another new user

Hi Yunshui, how are you? I trust all is well. Please help this new user. On a quick look, almost all of his/her contributions appears to be vandalism; see here. He recently have also created an article about himself which I tagged for CSD. So, I thought if you can help him. Thanks. Jim Carter ^(talk) 15:18, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Doesn't seem to be getting the message, does he... To be honest, I doubt there's anything I can say that's going to change his behaviour (apart from, perhaps, "You have been blocked from editing...") but I'll swing by his talkpage on Monday if he's still going by then.

 ::Speaking (or in this case writeing) of {{subst:uw-disruptive1}} Is used for vandalism that doesn't fit into anything else but doesn't fit into {{subst:uw-vandalism1}}

N As above. {{uw-disruptive1}} is worded more severely than {{uw-vandal1}} - why would you use one in preference to the other?

...I admit i havent really Used {{subst:uw-disruptive1}} I hadn't Had much idea about what it was Used for. In fact i only noticed what it was ment to be used for when i read it on the warnings page :(. Dudel250 ChatPROD Log CSD Logs 10:02, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Well, the key advantage of the {{uw-disruptive}} templates is that they can be applied to edits which might not actually constitute vandalism in the strictest sense, but are nonetheless disruptive. An example might be the good-faith addition of clearly unencyclopedic or inappropriate content. The {{uw-disruptive1}} template also has a link to the Welcoming Committee, which you might want to offer the user to help them feel more at home. It might help if you can clarify in your own head why disruptive editing differs from vandalism - the two terms cover different, if related, issues. Yunshui ^雲_水 10:39, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

The Brass Armadillo

Hello, I was trying to add an article about The Brass Armadillo, but I wasn't finished. I tried to simply save my work, not knowing that the article would be posted immediately. I was under the impression that until I had a verified account, nothing I wrote would be seen. Also, I forgot the password to the account I originally posted the article with so I had to create this one today. I will be resubmitting the full article again, so it will be similar to the first one which was apparently rejected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WilliamtempletonIII (talk • contribs) 16:20, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

I assume that makes you User:Badbatchbilly. Technically what you're doing would be considered an abuse of multiple accounts, but if we can assume that you won't be returning to your previous account then there should be no problem.

The original article was deleted because it did not make any case for the company being notable - the version you have posted under your new account, whilst in need of some editing to remove the promotional language therein, does contain sufficient sources to attest to notability, and so you need have no fear of the page being deleted again on that score.

Request for a review of a block

Hello, Yunshui. I have recently taken the unusual step of blocking an administrator for what I regard as abuse of the admin tools. That administrator has appealed to me to unblock, and I have declined the request. I wonder if you would be willing to look at it, and see what you think. If you would prefer not to, let me know, and I will ask another administrator. If you are willing to have a look, you can read all about it at User talk:Joy. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:12, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

I'll take a look (I've just had a cursory read-through) but I'm going offline in about half an hour (during which time I have some other stuff that needs doing) and there seems to be a lot to wade through. If I don't think I can offer a satisfactory resolution by then, I'll let you know. Yunshui ^雲_水 14:20, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for at least being willing to look at it. However, I have to go offline myself now. I may just possibly get a chance to come back very briefly in a few hours, but other than that it will be about 16 hours before I will be able to to edit again, so whether you can do it within half an hour or not makes no difference to me. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:27, 5 June 2014 (UTC)

Would it be possible to re-create the page - I am really worried it is lost now? All the words I used were my words and not copied from anyone else. I wrote these words- http://www.barnebys.co.uk/d/%25C2%25A7-philip-jones-british-1933%25E2%2580%25942008-balance-of-pinks-2008-signed-lower-left-%2522philip-jones-08%2522-148906880.html

I hope you can re-create the page for me or tell me what I have to do to keep it please and have it on wikipedia.

Thank you so much

Hi. The problem is that the text on the website - which as far as I can see predates the addition of the same text to Wikipedia - is clearly labelled as © Auctions Online Scandinavia AB. That makes it effectively unusable here. If you can supply evidence of your authorship (the easiest way to do this is to send an email from an address associated with the website to permissions-en@wikimedia.org) and release it under an appropriate licence (see this declaration for appropriate wording) then we can use the matarial here. However, as long as another website holds the copyright to a piece of text, Wikipedia cannot make use of it. Yunshui ^雲_水 14:56, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

abusive edit summary

here are some edit summaries which are quite abusive. Please remove them all. thanks https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Durga_Vahini&action=history — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.199.0.242 (talk) 18:49, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Looks like it's already been dealt with. That's almost certainly Obelixobelix evading their block. Yunshui ^雲_水 06:56, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

Blocked username

Fine; obviously there were other issues besides the name. It was rather complicated on limited review; if you felt you had a better understanding of it than I did then of course I defer to your judgement. Daniel Case (talk) 23:30, 9 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Daniel. I figured you'd be okay with it, but thought it was only polite to let you know what I'd done. Cheers, Yunshui ^雲_水 06:52, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
