Re: List of natural gas and oil production accidents in the United States

I tried to upload a picture of the Green County (PA) gas well fire. I am concerned that it may not have uploaded.

Otherwise your corrections are clear and I should be able to make them today (Fri)

Cokodeal references challenge

Thank you sir for the review on the Cokodeal draft.

Please sir, the organization is a start-up organization and does not yet have enough review in independent reliable sources. With time, i hope that there would be reviews in independent journals and articles. Is there a way to get around this for now, and still make the article accepted?

Draft: Chaheru

Hi Mathew, were you able to get this article? I had sent an e-mail with questions etc. but have not heard back. Any feedback would be useful to improve the article and have it accepted.

Many thanks, in advance. kinder deo (talk) 06:30, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Hello kinder deo, I don't accept emails for an issue that can be dealt with publicly on a Talk page instead, so if you have questions, unless they're extremely sensitive for personal reasons, please just post questions here on my Talk page. MatthewVanitas (talk) 15:41, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Draft: Chaheru

Hi Mathew,

I created a new article and have submitted it for a review. I do not know if it complies with all the guidelines and would like to improve the article and have it accepted. I would like to have someone look at the article and advise. This is the first article on the Chaheru village and not much has been recorded and there are very few references available. The content came from a retired teacher of the same village.

My concerns are Grammer, References, chronolgy, and general content: In the article;
1.Reference 5 and 6 deliver the same point. Ref 5 is the actual page from a book, and ref 6 is the book. How should this be stated? Do I need ref 6 at all?
2.Reference 8 is a page out of a book, but the book has not been listed. Should the book be listed as a reference?
3.Reference 10 is the actual report and ref 11 is the url for a government site to deliver the report. The report is in "Punjabi" language and justifies my point. Is this o.k.? Do I need to have the url reference at all?
4. Under the section: Migration to Other Countries. Previously nothing has been recorded and the year of migration, which came from a Villager, can not be justified. How should this be handled? Would the indication of timing in the form of decades e.g. early/mid 1950's, work? Would a general reference of timing from countries like USA, Canada work, as to when a religious sect migrated.
5. Under the section: Famous viewpoints, I reference "Lovely University...". This is a private university with 25k students. Reference 17 is the URL for the university. Should the url be included in the article?
6. Are there any references missing? Should a section be removed if there are no references?
7. Are there any grammatical errors in the article that I should correct? 
8. Any other suggestions to improve the article? 

I would really appreciate if you can assist in this regard.  

Thanks. Kinder Deo.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.114.89.129 (talk) 16:20, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi MV, thanks for your timely action on my submission. I guessed that it would be rejected as soon as I saw another user had submitted the article. At this point what I need to know what the accepted protocol is for integrating the information I found into the prior article. Do I need to contact the original user or do I simply hit "edit" and let the process take care of itself? Thanks for your help, 'ppreciate it mucho.Tabangado (talk) 02:41, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Sheepshead (game), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Wisconsin Dells. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

  • Draft:Ray Alexander (musician) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Therealex (talk) 17:41, 27 December 2014 (UTC) Thank you for reviewing my submission for Ray Alexander, musician.

As his ensemble for the recording of Rain In June included many notables found here on Wikipedia (Kenny Barron, Harvie Swartz (also on Cloud Patterns), Oliver Jackson, etc.) I thought it would meet requirement #6 (Is an ensemble which contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles.)

Also, he performed with many notable jazz ensembles such as:

Charlie Barnett (who played the exact same solo for Cherokee every performance - Ray took the solo before him. One night, he played Charlie's solo note for note, and Barnett had a melt down!)

George Shearing (at one performance, they brought a stallion on stage for some reason. Don Rickles was one of the acts, and he tickled the horse in a private place with a feather just before the curtain went up. You can guess the rest), and many others.

His name appears in the Who's Who of Jazz and The Rough Guide To Jazz, possibly other books that I'm unaware of. He has a long history, being both a sideman and leader during the most exciting time of pre/post be-bop. As a man who was "there" as both a performer with and witness to some of the legendary icons of jazz, I believe he deserves a page in Wikipedia. His albums still sell reasonably well on CD Baby, and the solo vibe tracks he recorded for the late Paul Rodriguez (UK) are still used in various commercials around the world.

Thank you for your consideration.

Request for Approval of the Article on Maharshi Santsevi Paramhans

Dear MathhewVanitas,

Warm greetings!

I had submitted the last year an article on Maharshi Santsevi Paramhans for approval. The article was subsequently deleted. The main reason cited was that the article was not encyclopaedic in nature but sounded more like an eulogy. I admit that that might be possible for the love & devotion i have towards him.

I have tried to modify the article and resubmitted the same on Saturday, the 27th Dec 2014 for approval. It is an important article as there are millions of people mainly in India and also abroad who love him and will be interested to read about his life. It will also be a contribution and another step towards enriching and making the Wikipedia a complete place for the seekers of knowledge on a variety of topics.

I honestly aver that whatever i have put in the article is wholly true and factual and that i have not made the slightest attempt to advance any falsity. Even the photograph that has been included was captured by me personally on my own Sony Camera. I solicit your kind support in getting this article approved.

I very humbly request you to kindly find time and go through the revised article. I will gladly incorporate any suggestions that you make. I am reproducing what i had submitted the day before yesterday for your ready reference. I will very eagerly await your response.

With regards,

Dear MatthewVanitas,

Warm Greetings!

Sorry to bother you again. I had written to you yesterday requesting your opinion on the above article and soliciting your help in that regard. As I had pasted the whole article, you had asked me to give only the link to the draft article. I had given the link yesterday, but am not sure whether it reached you. So, here I give that again:

See User talk:Praveshksingh#Draft:Santsevi Paramhans. I have had to delete it again as a copyvio, but it is also still far too promotional in tone - he took out a couple of particularly hagiographic passages, but the rest was almost unchanged from the source here: "His modest disposition, magnetic persona, sweet charming voice, flawless pronunciation, captivatingly melodious rendition of devotional mystic hymns, captivating scholarly discourses..." etc. I have suggested Praveshksingh ask advice at WT:WikiProject India, but it occurs to me that you could maybe point him to some examples of acceptably non-promotional articles about gurus like this - I seem to remember you helping with a similar case a year or too back.
