Review of submission : Yasmina

Hello . Thanks for your review of my submission of article : Yasmina My username is Yasmina Fan I don't know how to make the citation in English if the source website is completely in Arabic , can you explain a way to do that ? Also I tried to write in a neutral tone and avoid all peacock terms. Almost every sentence I wrote is referenced , so the opinion is not mine, its from the reference website. So I don't really understand where is the error in my writing tone. Please explain and I will fix. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yasmina Fan (talk • contribs) 21:54, 31 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Yasmina Fan - First, simply translate the Arabic into English. Second, you need to not use her first name in the article, instead use her surname as per MOS. But frankly, she doesn't seem to meet the notability requirements. She's never had a national tour, never won a major award, and never won a major contest (sorry, but Arabs got talent is not a major music contest). Onel5969 (talk) 11:21, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Help Understanding the changes that need to be made

NeoLife1958 (talk) 02:47, 1 April 2015 (UTC) My page is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Arthur_Furst. I don't understand what changes have to be made. I cited sources. I am making this wiki page on behalf of my company, GNLD International and most of the info is from a site we made for Arthur Furst: http://www.gnldcontent.com/ArthurFurst/index.htmlNeoLife1958 (talk) 02:47, 1 April 2015 (UTC)NeoLife1958[reply]

Hi NeoLife1958 - There are several major issues with your article. First, the one I declined it for, is that the article is drastically under-referenced. Time and again, you make assertions or statement without reference. For example, Early life is totally unreferenced. As is the Passions section (which should probably be completely deleted since it most likely falls under WP:TRIVIA). 1952 - unreferenced, 1954 - same. The list goes on and on. Second, you have a large WP:NPOV issue. Get rid of all the WP:PEACOCK terms like: tragically, genius for the sciences, revolutionary, beloved; report on facts don't paint a flowery picture. Third, you have a formatting issue. Please see the Manual of Style and the Layout guide to show you how to structure your article, and how to format the layout. Fifth, the publications section needs to be virtually deleted. You should have a brief mention (like you do in the lead) that he's been published frequently, and list perhaps 4-5 of his most notable articles, then reference the section with a citation which shows a list of his publications. Finally, you need to format, and more completely fill out your citations. All the articles need their authors and page numbers, for example. You can find templates at WP:CIT.
One last thing, I've added a potential conflict of interest tag to the article. You have a close association with the subject, and editors should know that. Doesn't mean you can't write the article, but does mean that you have to be careful about presenting a neutral point of view. Hope this helps. Onel5969 (talk) 11:43, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tricot

Hi, just wondering what more I should do with Draft:Tricot (band). As far as I can tell the article satisfies criteria 1, 2 and 4 of the notability guidelines. Could you explain why it doesn't satisfy any of these? Pwrong (talk) 02:53, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Pwrong - regarding #2, while you state they charted there are no links to those chart positions, therefore it is an uncited claim, which doesn't meet the criteria. There is no evidence that they toured in any country (appearing at 4 festivals is not a "tour"). Regarding #1, - in my opinion, they don't meet this criteria either, with the current citations. The first is a brief promo piece; the second is a blog (which doesn't count as reliable in terms of notability; the third is a nice article, but from a fringe source; the fourth is a pr piece, not reliable; the fifth is a brief mention of the band; the sixth is another unreliable source; and the seventh is equivalent to YouTube, which is another unreliable source. Hardly qualifies under #1. However, since I declined it, I see you have added a link to the Oricon charts, you've resubmitted it, and I'll let another editor take a look.

Hi Onel5969. I reviewed this article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Disinfect_(band). Should show the validity of the sources.

14:56:16, 1 April 2015 review of submission by Bichetteln


Bichetteln (talk) 14:56, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]


Hello,


i added new documents on the page : one on ( Reference ) , one "offical website" on (External links) and sources from Wikipedia on (See also )

am i on the good way ??????

Bichetteln (talk) 14:56, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bichetteln - Yes and no. The letelegramme and le-petitbleu are decent articles. I would think you would need another 1-2 articles like that to show notability. Wikipedia can't be a reference to itself. Also, get rid of the LinkedIn link, doesn't belong Wikipedia. The official website should be included, but doesn't help with notability. The references, however, need to be in-line citations. See referencing for beginners, to help you with that. Good luck. Onel5969 (talk) 14:21, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted in Good Faith

Hi there,

Just noticed you reverted an edit of mine on a list of learning management systems. What are the parameters for adding new LMS's? The one I added seemed to fit in well and I was going to add more before I noticed your edit.

Warm regards, Jimmy

JMelons (talk) 15:06, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi JMelons - Only because it was, by Wikipedia definitions, non-notable. Usually I'll go through a list and get rid of the other non-notables, but I was lazy yesterday. I'll do that now. Happy editing. Onel5969 (talk) 14:24, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

JAM Paper & Envelope's Notability

Hello Onel5969,

A couple months ago you declined my article for "JAM Paper & Envelope". I'm wondering, was it close to being accepted? I thought I referenced a good amount of legitimate sources. Is there a certain type of source I would need that would push my article to be accepted? Do I need a company profile from a big news source?

Thanks, Vargarnar (talk) 16:09, 1 April 2015 (UTC)Vargarnar[reply]

Hi Vargarnar - I think you were very close. The first two references are very good for showing notability. If you came up with another solid 1-2 like that, I think you'd be good to go. Onel5969 (talk) 14:32, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Tamponatura

Dear onel5969, we got your message and we edited the page so it can meet the requirements of wikipedia. We are actually trying to translate the Italian page http://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamponatura already available in wikipedia, since there's no wiki page for this masonry type. Moreover I would like to underline that the Italian page has no reference, whereas we referred to european standards and a european approved project. Please, let us know if it is still not worth to be accepted.

Best regards.

Dept. of civil engineering of the university of Padova — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dicea.unipd (talk • contribs) 16:26, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Dicea.unipd - First, thanks for taking the time to translate articles. That's a pretty important undertaking. I can't speak to the standards of other wikis, but on the English Wikipedia we do have some standards as in regard to both notability and verifiability (which, in my opinion, is as it should be, since Wikipedia is attempting to become a credible encyclopedia). That said, your two sources may be enough to show both the notability and to provide the necessary verification for the underlying facts of the article. I'm going to let other editors weigh in on the piece, since construction is not really my forte. I usually like to see at least 3 sources, which is why a declined the article in the first place. But it is very well written. If no other editor gets to it by next Monday, let me know, and I'll spend some time on it. Happy editing. Onel5969 (talk) 14:45, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

16:52:44, 1 April 2015 review of submission by Davidwrubin

I'd like to ask for advice on how to formalize the tone of the article.

Hi Onel5969, would you please let me know how to formalize the tone of the article so that it is in line with Wikipedia's standards? I'm also having a little trouble figuring out which details are worthy of the article (such as the show that he produces and which comedy publications have written about him). I think he's definitely notable enough for inclusion based on other comedians who have Wikipedia entries. Thank you.

Davidwrubin (talk) 16:52, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Davidwrubin - It's a very short article, so don't use flowery descriptions, like unique and off-beat (you're not pitching him to an agent). Simply state facts. And don't draw conclusions. When you say insiders and audiences, that's a conclusion. In addition, I don't think you've met the notability requirement. While your articles are good, since they are mostly interviews, they are primary sources. Notability comes from secondary sources. You'll need about 3 of those types to show notability. And be aware of over-citing. Usually a single citation will suffice, at most two, and if something is very contentious, 3. But NEVER more than 3. Hope this helps.

Bjorn Gunnar Lefnaer - Resubmission Question

Hi, I am AnkaIva

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Bjorn_Gunnar_Lefnaer

I understand that more reliable sources are needed. We found two articles about Mr.Lefnaer. Both in foreign magazines. One in French and another in German. One talks about his hobby as an avid luxury cars collector. Another is talking about him running his multimilloan euro company.

but We only have hard copies, no electronic links to it. If I make a reference to both magazines, names and dates of publication but without an electronic links, would they be accepted by Wiki editors?

Thanks so much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ankaiva (talk • contribs) 17:10, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again Ankaiva - first thing, when you leave a message, don't forget to "sign it" by using the four ~ . That helps editors know who they're talking to. Now to your question, yes, citations do not have to be available online, that only makes it easier to verify. But if you do use hard copies, make the citation as complete as possible (magazine, volume/edition, pages, author, title, date, etc). You can find out about citation formatting at WP:CIT. Hope this helps. Onel5969 (talk) 18:58, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Question about article submission

Onel5969,

First, thank you for reviewing my submission: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Mark_Anthony_%28Author/Psychic%29

I was hoping you could point out any examples where the Article (NPOV) could be improved so that I could make the edits required for approval. Thank you, ewaretroy — Preceding unsigned comment added by EwareTroy (talk • contribs) 21:56, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi EwareTroy - Don't be descriptive, just state facts. No need to say a "published author.[1], licensed attorney[2], certified mediator", simply say, "author, attorney and mediator". Don't use trademark, copyright, etc. symbols. Only use his surname to refer to him after the initial mention of him in the lead. Don't use peacock terms like "distinguished" "prestigious", etc. Get rid of all the YouTube references. It's not a reliable source. You can create a section called "External links", and put a very small selection (no more than 3-4) there. Likewise, delete 90% of the tv mentions in that one paragraph. Simply say he's appeared on numerous television shows, and mention the top 3 or 4. You might also take a look at the Manual of Style and Layout manual to help you with figuring out the sections and layout of your article. Above all, be neutral. Tell us about the subject, don't sell him to us. Hope this helps. Onel5969 (talk) 19:14, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Onel5969,

Thank you again for the clarification. I will try to clear up the article and resubmit. Your feedback and assistance is appreciated. EwareTroy — Preceding unsigned comment added by EwareTroy (talk • contribs) 20:21, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

22:06:04, 1 April 2015 review of submission by Harold Sloan

Hi One15969 Thanks for reviewing the Chris King article. you say he is not a notable person. Is this because he doesn't have a college education? He's a serial entrepreneur with quite a large social media following. He's also involved in charitable work. Can you give me a steer to improve the chances of approval. Kind regards


Harold Sloan (talk) 22:06, 1 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Harold Sloan - Actually I didn't say he wasn't notable. The template response states that the citations currently in the article don't show his notability. The first Forbes article is a really nice article, but it's mostly an interview, which is a primary source, the second is a bad link, and I can't find the correct article, and the third is a mere mention of him. Their are two general types of citations: those for notability and those for verifiability. Notability cites need to be from secondary sources which are reliable. They also cannot be mere mentions of him. If that first Forbes piece had simply been an article about him, it would be perfect. For notability purposes, you should have about 3 articles of that type referenced. I did a quick search, but unfortunately, there must be hundreds of folks with the same name. Three other things. First, according to the charity source, it's Christopher R. King, so I'll move the draft to that namespace. Second, since it's a blp (biography of a living person), all the assertions in the article will need verification. You can use citations like the Forbes article for that. For example, you talk about him losing his money in the real estate crash, since that's mentioned in the Forbes article, you could move the citation to the end of that sentence. But you'll need a citation for the film. Third, please take a look at WP:CIT, which gives you a format to correctly format your citations. Hope this helps.

05:26:37, 2 April 2015 review of submission by Thothbubble


Hi, thank you for taking the time to review my page.

I'd appreciate some clarity on one aspect of the feedback: 'should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources'

My sources include CNBC, Economic Times and Forbes India, in addition to sites like Afaqs.com and campaignindia.in which are well-known advertising sites in India. Could you explain why these sites are considered less-than-suitable? And what sort of sites should I include instead?

I'm rather new at this, so I really would appreciate your help.

Rejection of article

If I had the flair for writing, then there would not have been the need for editors. Your explanation on what needs to be done in order for the draft to be approved is quite unclear for me. Could you please be able to provide a much simpler outline of what exactly are you looking for to approve of the draft. The person is an author of 4 books, that is not just a directory listing, that is considered a reference as per APA and other methodologies. Like the Apple process of app approval, the acceptance or rejections are based on your feelings and perceptions. The links that you have outlined do not explain your perspective and perceptions. So could you please outline what it would require for this article to be approved? There are more links and resources in that article than in many of the approved articles on other similar personalities. I am sure that you are a fair editor that wants to help create history not be selective about who is worthy enough based on your choices. There are so many other individuals that are NON American and do more amazing things but since they are not covered in the media or have links cannot be included. That is totally unfair to the achievements of those individuals.

16:56:12, 2 April 2015 review of submission by Ivamanu


I think this time the draft has merit and deserves your acceptance. What do you think about it ? Thanks, Iulian Vamanu

Ivamanu (talk) 16:56, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ivamanu - the vast majority of the citations are by the subject himself, and therefore don't go to notability, but they do go to verifying the facts in the article. This guy is clearly notable, but the only citations which go to his notability are the last 3. The last one is a brief listing of him, so that doesn't count. The botosani citation is exactly the type of citation that you need. The jurnalul is a nice citation, but only mentions him briefly. If you can come up with two more articles like the botosani, I think you'd be good to go. Onel5969 (talk) 19:52, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

19:11:12, 2 April 2015 review of submission by MoJo3161981


I am not actually asking for a re-review, please read. I have added several references to the bottom of the article. I am not sure where to put them inline as they basically all have the same info. I was wondering if there is a way I could invite others to help finish it?

Other than that I'm really not sure why it would have been declined. She does fit the following criteria: Has had a single or album on any country's national music chart & Has had a record certified gold or higher in at least one country. Her other tours are already posted on their own pages. This one was just announced 3/31/2015, so there won't be a whole lot of articles. However, I have found several. I believe Entertainment Weekly & onlyciara.com would constitute as reputable.

MoJo3161981 (talk) 19:11, 2 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MoJo3161981 - She fits the criteria, which is why she has an article. This tour does not. All of the announcements are promotional in nature. Take a look at the WP:NMUSIC, all the criteria to make a tour notable are after the fact (grosses, attendance, etc). There usually can't be coverage of something that hasn't happened yet. Promotional material cannot be used to show notability. Sorry, but keep the article until the tour happens, and then fill in with some media coverage.

Hi Areed06 - While a fascinating incident, you'd have to provide many more national citations showing that this is more than a flash-in -the-pan, trivial incident. Take a look at WP:SINGLEEVENT, which is clearly the guideline which should be followed here. I don't see where it passes the criteria threshold, but I'm going to invite some other experienced editors to take a look at it. Onel5969 (talk) 17:05, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Don Doe

Hey there. Sorry for the late response, I have been very busy and it easy for me to lose track of things. I greatly appreciate you going through and adding places where I require citation. It was very helpful.

I do have a question though. While I can see some places where the citations need to be found, there are many points you labeled where all I have done is paraphrased the article which is linked within that paragraph, or is linked in a previous/later citation, but not within that exact paragraph. Should I link everything even if it is to the same source? How do I go about doing that without cluttering up my sources?

I know some cases this isn't the issue and I need to go back through my personal list of sites and whatnot, but in other cases it is listed explicitly in one of the two books I am citing, both published by universities, so cited it within the paragraph, not each individual thought that way I would avoid quoting too much.

Thank you again for the time and effort you have put into this. -Sage

Hi SageheartBK - I went in and gave you an example of how to use the same citation more than once. And a citation is only needed for the information which proceeds it, so if the same citation can be used in two or three consecutive places, simply put it where the third citation needed is, and remove all 3 citations. Hope this makes sense. Onel5969 (talk) 17:18, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I took a look at the articles you suggested, and drastically cut the content of the article back to indisputably essential and encylopedic facts. Since venture capital firms are mostly notable for the companies that they have funded - removing the portfolio section is rather like removing the "artists produced" section from a music producers entry or "author's edited" from a publisher entry, but that's just my opinion I guess :) 76.21.41.198 (talk) 03:31, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mrohde13 - The best advice is to read the pages written to help new editors. Take a look at Wikipedia:Your first article and Referencing for Beginners. Also, WP:CIT gives some nice templates to use for citations, depending on the type of citations you are using. I corrected the first reference, to give you an example. Right now, your article needs reliable independent sources which go in-depth about your subject. Hope this helps. Onel5969 (talk) 13:48, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I have now completely re-jigged the entire article as you suggested. Am I getting there? Even found a ref for the brain abscess story. What's next? Eagerly, Sean M Jones (talk) 16:48, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sean M Jones - Getting there. I added some tags where you'll need citations. Remember, this is a blp, so if you say something about the person, it really should be cited. You also need to remove the raw links (I removed one as an example of what I mean by a raw link), they are a definite no-no. Keep on working it! Onel5969 (talk) 13:53, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I contancted the person for more details of his early and personal life as you said it was needed and he sent me more info which I included but some of these details are minor and dating from the 1960s or earlier, and therefore they are not independently verifiable with external citations. Nevertheless, since they fit with the rest of the picture I have included them in good faith without attaching any independent citations, adding phrases like "he recounts", "he recalls" and "he remembers". So how to deal with that? The High School has no archives about the tennis team or the philosophy club from the 2000s never mind the 1960s. Should I delete it all again? Thanks for your help with this, I did spend a lot of time looking for citations which don't exist but you said we need details of his early life. Sean M Jones (talk) 14:04, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification on Your Judgment

No Hostility,

Can you clarify the standards then? Because the 'Government Technology Magazine' has neither the circulation, Presence, nor the history of Inside Publications nor Sacramento News & Review. What facts do you have to support that either of the magazines do not meet the Wiki Standards?

Any Clarification would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks,

Hi Dmanis2kool- a general rule of thumb is that if something doesn't have it's own Wikipedia article, it's not notable. This is because to have your own article, you go through a notability vetting. If you feel this strongly about the magazine, might I suggest you create an article for it? You can use the Articles for Creation process. Take care. Onel5969 (talk) 13:58, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Ray Brown Entry

I had an online chat with the help desk. We discussed the validity of the citations for the entry. I was told they were just lists. They are indeed "lists" of the times, places and events participated in by a notable track athlete. The entry is a factual narrative of the information. These sources are the same sources an author of a NYTimes article on the subject would use to verify one's accomplishments. These are the most credible sources to confirm a track athlete's success. All other information comes from information not on the web which the web help person said was fine to use. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trb127 (talk • contribs) 23:08, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Onel5969

Thanks a lot for your detailed help and guidance. Based on your suggestions, i have changed all the things that you had requested in your previous post as below. Please check the draft and let me know if i can resubmit.

Thanks Raman Ramanhome (talk)Ramanhome

First, even though the underlying links might be in Tamil, the reference notes themselves need to be in English.

Reply>>> He is Tamil scholar in the pre-internet times. One of the references is in English, rest are in Tamil because articles about him were written in the Tamil vernacular since he is a Tamil scholar.

You misunderstand, Ramanhome, I'm speaking about the citation footnote in the article, not the underlying citation. The underlying citation may be in Tamil, but when you create the footnote, that needs to be in English. To me, it looks like only 3 or 4 sources are referenced.

Reply>>> How many references do you need to accept the article? This cannot be a reason to reject the article.

You need at least 3 solid references to show notability. Then, since this is a biography, you need a fair amount of references to validate the underlying assertions in the article. Most of the Tamil language in the article also needs to go away.

Reply>>> yes i have removed most of the tamil language in the article. Pls check and let me know.

Much better. I think the quotes in the original are okay, but you could (if you wanted to), simply leave the English translations. All the raw links in the article have to go away.

Reply>>> what do you mean by the raw links? pls give an example of a raw link.

A raw link is simply inserting a link to an external source by using a weblink. An example would be in the Literary Work section, Madurai Tamil Sangam is a raw link. Simply put the name of the item, since the link does not have anything to do with the subject of the article, you shouldn't even use it as a reference. If the link showed the subject's relationship to the item, than you should use it as a reference. Your first two references are also raw links. You can find out how to format citations at WP:CIT. And finally, the article has an WP:NPOV issue

Reply>>>Please be specific in places where you do not find no neutrality. Identify those places in the article.

Avoid using peacock or overly positive terms. "detailed work" should simply be work. "well discussed" should simply be discussed. "fully dedicated" should simply be dedicated. Get rid of words like that (other examples: "elaborate", "novel" (as in novel way), "important". Ramanhome (talk)Ramanhome

Hope all this helps. Onel5969 (talk) 00:19, 23 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi Ramanhome - You still have to remove the raw links. I removed one to give you an example. Also, that paragraph should have a citation which verifies the facts it includes.
The citations themselves are still in Tamil, not English. Again, I'm not talking about the underlying articles, but the footnotes in this article have to be in English.
The Literary work section needs a lot more citations (same reason I just cited above).
But on the whole, MUCH better! Nice job so far. Let me know when you've made the above changes and I'll take another look. Onel5969 (talk) 14:12, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A Saucerful of Secrets (song): Difference between revisions From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Revision as of 10:42, 4 April 2015 (edit) 87.7.43.20 (talk) ← Previous edit

Latest revision as of 13:55, 4 April 2015 (edit) (undo) Onel5969 (talk | contribs) (Reverted 1 good faith edit by 87.7.43.20 using STiki)

Probably good faith is yours, have you ever listened to ASOS?

In the studio version the low rumbling sound is made by vari speeded timpanies, playing A♯ and C♯, the infamous cymbals* are in the high spectrum they are sounding like pieces of glass§.

"We did the first part starting from the high pitches of the cymbals. We placed a mike right next to the cymbals and we hit them very lightly with wooden hammers. Actually, this creates a sound that is very different from that of the cymbals§." (D. Gilmour talking with D. Frikte in Musician, n. 50, Dec. 1982)

In the live version the bass is playing A♯ and C♯, so is the bass instead of the timpanies. :-)

Hope it could help, take care! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rabarbarum3000 (talk • contribs) 20:18, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Rabarbarum3000 - It was that the edit made the language seem too technical for an average reader. I think if you simply said, "The timpani sound..." that would read better. Onel5969 (talk) 22:10, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Having re-read it, the existing version makes more sense, showing the that the original sound was symbols, replaced by the lower sound. Now, whether or not the lower sound is by a bass or a timpani, I'm not sure. Since the section is uncited, I can't check. If you believe it's the latter, by all means change bass to timpani.

Buck Owens

I won't dispute your judgment there, but perhaps you could have saved both of us a little time by using a more descriptive editsum than "rev incorrect edit". I think that much was self-evident; it was obviously a revert, and reverts are generally used to remove "incorrect edits" of one kind or another. Cheers,―Mandruss ☎ 00:44, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Mandruss - You're absolutely right. When I reverted the change, I was writing the edit summary, and hit the enter key, rather than the spacebar, so the truncated summary was all you saw. I meant to say, rev incorrect edit and NPOV addition. I didn't want to simply say either, since either by itself did not adequately describe why I was reverting. Sorry.

"copyvio" reversion of Paradise Valley additions

Hello Onel5969: Puzzled about your reversion of my addition to <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradise_Valley,_Arizona> earlier today -- not clear how this was a copyright violation since I rephrased the source in my own words. ?? How can I add this historical information without being reverted again? thanks for any help... wcwkS15 — Preceding unsigned comment added by WcwkS15 (talk • contribs) 02:15, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi WcwkS15 - I probably should have used the term "close paraphrasing" rather than "copyvio", and provided the link, which I will here: WP:PARAPHRASING. I used the same term as the first time I had reverted it, simply as a matter of expedience. My apologies for that. Hopefully, you'll understand that you need to completely re-write information, not simply change a word or two, or slightly rearrange the order. Onel5969 (talk) 20:27, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! -- WcwkS15 (talk) 17:26, 6 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is it appropriate to ask you to review a revision for this addition? If so, how's this? (I didn't format the refs yet because I don't know how these would go up on your Talk page). Thanks! WcwkS15 (talk) 20:36, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The land that became Paradise Valley was first used by European settlers as a grazing ground for cattle. The name was given in the 1880s by Frank Conkey, Manager of the Rio Verde Canal Company, which surveyed the land to develop it for agricultural purposes.[Will Barnes, Arizona Place Names (University of Arizona Press, 1997), p. 318] Legend has it that he named the area "Paradise Valley" because of the abundance of spring wildflowers and Palo Verde trees.[“About Paradise Valley”, http://www.paradisevalleyliving.com/about/, accessed 4/7/15] In the end, the canal was not built, but the name stuck. Modest homes and small resorts began to be built in the area, which was notable for large lot sizes (1-5 acres).[”Town of Paradise Valley History”, http://www.ci.paradise-valley.az.us/DocumentCenter/Home/View/223, accessed 4/7/15] As development accelerated after World War II, residents began to fear annexation by nearby and expanding Phoenix and Scottsdale, threatening the low density, non-commercial character of the area. To prevent this, a “Citizens Committee for the Incorporation of The Town of Paradise Valley, Arizona” was formed and gathered enough signatures to present a petition for incorporation to the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors. On May 24, 1961, the Board incorporated the Town of Paradise Valley.[”Town of Paradise Valley History”, http://www.ci.paradise-valley.az.us/DocumentCenter/Home/View/223, accessed 4/7/15]

Robert Honablue

Am very confused as to what Wikipedia wants as proof that Robert Honablue was employed as a recording engineer for CBS Records (NYC) -as well as what proof Wikipedia needs to show that he engineered albums for them -especially in light of the fact that Wikipedia has these albums posted elsewhere that cleary states him as the Recording Engineer, Mastering Engineer, or both. Robert was employed by CBS Records, Motown Studios, and did in fact run a recording studio with George Benson in the 70's. Tape-Op did a featured story on Robert which ran last year -and is still running. Getting on Wikipedia is really a very, very hard thing for credited people to get on because of the red tape that makes no sense. Please check out your listing of Edgar Winter's White Trash LP and Laura Nyro's Christmas and the Beads of Sweat -and explain to me how Robert is noted on them -yet can't be recognized for such on his own page. And likewise, on his previous school's site (www.THIaudio.org) he has endorsements from the late Dave Brubeck, Dave's oldest son, Darius, and the legendary George Benson. Yet that seems to have no merit with Wikipedia. Just trying to help a retired person who has been in the industry for 48 years to get his props. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Recording1948 (talk • contribs) 15:24, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am really having a difficult time with getting Robert Honablue on your pages. I have researched a lot of your pages of recording artists that are on Wikipedia and found Robert Honablue's name attached to several of their recordings -which is indicated on the pages of Wikipedia. Is this an error by Wikipedia??? And did CBS Records err by noting Robert Honablue on many of their released albums that cite Robert Honablue's name??? Can someone talk to me man-on-man about submissions that are accepted on other Wikipedia pages -but not good enough for Robert to have his own page about such??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Recording1948 (talk • contribs) 16:04, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Recording1948 - Just because someone has done work on some albums does not make them notable. Please take a look at Wikipedia's general notability guidelines and the guidelines specifically tailored for music associated articles. You need in-depth references from independent, reliable sources to show the subject's notability. LinkedIn, Tapedop, Yelp, YouTube, WordPress are all non-reliable sources. Allmusic is a good source, but for verifying facts, not for notability. Perhaps in this instance, it is simply a function of Honablue's job function. Engineer's don't get a lot of ink, and therefore, many of them are not notable by wiki criteria. Onel5969 (talk) 20:46, 5 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You said that there "is a definite argument to be made that the sources (at least some of them which were affected by the content removal) are not unreliable". Can you please elaborate on which sources you are referring to, and why you say they are reliable - be it here or at the article talk page? If that's the case, I clearly have been operating at a standard which is too high, and there are plenty of articles which will warrant changes to include the lower standard sourcing.

I am unsure as to why the V-Dem Institute is not worthy of a wikipedia article. I have included references and attached a link to the webpage.


ValeriyaMechkova (talk) 13:10, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi ValeriyaMechkova - Right now the sources for your article do not show the notability. 2 of the citations are from the organizations own website, a third is from a blog. None of those are valid references for notability purposes. The fourth citation, is merely a listing at a university website. The three general references appear to be more about the concept of data variables, rather than about the organization itself. The article has very few inline citations, so that makes it difficult to ascertain the veracity of the underlying sources. Onel5969 (talk) 16:19, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

New Submission

Hello. I am a total newbie to writing WP articles, though of course I have used the service countless times. Thank you for reviewing my recent submission Charles Ernst Scharlau. When I submitted it, just yesterday, I was under the impression that I would have days, even weeks, before it was reviewed. So unwisely I planned to research how to make certain improvements to it in the interim, rather than waiting to submit. One planned improvement was to change the name of the article from "Charles Ernst Scharlau" to "Charles E. Scharlau". Although the individual's German middle name was indeed Ernst, the anglicised name he actually used is obscure, and all references to him that I've discovered indicate he went by "Charles E. Scharlau". This name change will also fix at least one "red link" on another page without having to edit the other topic.

Can the name of the article still be changed without too much effort? If so, can you point me in the right direction for accomplishing the change?

Again, thank you for your help.

KE5JK (talk) 13:45, 7 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

First of all KE5JK, congrats on your first published article. It does still need work, but I felt it could be published in its current condition and worked on. Was impressed with your first effort. You can change the title of the article by clicking on the "more" tab at the top of the page. The drop down menu will have a "move" selection, click on that and it will take you to the "move" screen. On that screen, simply delete the current "Charles Ernst Scharlau", and type "Charles Scharlau". You can type the E. if you want, but either is fine. If you have trouble, just let me know.

Greetings! I am new to submitting to WikiPedia, and have been trying to get a living person bio published for a man named Jayme Illien, who is the founder of the International Day of Happiness. I am not sure if I have taken the right approach in my previous submissions. For instance, it may be more appropriate as a 'stub' rather than an 'article.' I'm really not sure what method to take in submitting this bio and would really appreciate some help!

As a reference, please visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Williamson. This is about the length (perhaps even shorter) of the article I would like to submit. It does not have any references at all, only one external link (which appears to be broken). If I wanted to publish something like this, simply to give credit where it is due in acknowledging Mr. Illien as the UN adviser who conceived of the IDoH, how should I go about that? Again, any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.

Hi Juniperusco - Wikipedia is monitored by volunteers, so it's not unusual for an inappropriate article to slip through the cracks. That example you gave was created 5 or more years ago, when standards for inclusion were different. In fact, based on research, I've nominated it for deletion. Take a look at the links for the golden rule and general notability requirements. To show notability, you'll usually have to provide 2-3 good in-depth articles about the subject of the article, which are from independent, reliable sources.

I am requesting a re-review by the esteem reviewer(s) because the articles had been improvised based on the reviewers' comments hence it is cited accordingly. Moreover, the nominee had achieve many recognition(citation listed), award(citation listed), publication(references listed), experience in diverse discipline of research(citation listed) and had many pages cited his name in Google search (kindly search "khalisanni") regardless to his young ages. Thus, I would like to thanks the reviewer for his suggestion and hopefully, the article can be accepted as a part of Wikipedia sources.

Thank you Khalisanni khalid (talk) 15:57, 8 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Khalisanni khalid - you've definitely done some work on the article. However, it still has a way to go before resubmission. First, the sources still do not show the subject's notability. They have to be from independent, reliable sources (usually major newspapers or magazines). The sources you have are fine to verify the facts of the article (which is important), but not for notability. Second, the article actually suffers from WP:OVERCITE. Rarely use more than 1 citation, 2 sometimes if the citations aren't clear. Also, you've now created an WP:OVERLINK issue. Don't wikilink to common words primary school, etc. Wikilinking to people, places and organizations which have their own wikipages is okay. Hope this helps.

You can contact the website and get them to load it onto Wikipedia, giving up their copyright, but that would be the only way. Onel5969 (talk) 16:08, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

changing the title of R. T. Wallen

Hi Who would have thought that one space could cause such problems? People are having trouble find the page because it is R. T. instead of R.T. Also most people know him as Skip. So I want to change the title to the following: R.T. "Skip" Wallen

I have never changed the title of an existing article so hopefully you can help me with this. cheers, from Down Undah, Reefswaggie (talk) 01:11, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Reefswaggie - it's really bad form to have "nicknames" in the title of an article. You can include them in the lead, but shouldn't be in the title, except in very rare circumstances. I've created a redirect to the page if folks don't put the space in, so hopefully that will help. Onel5969 (talk) 16:13, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ok no worries, thanks for that. Reefswaggie (talk) 23:22, 9 April 2015 (UTC) how about this? put in a redirect if someone looks for Skip Wallen ? is that possible? Reefswaggie (talk) 23:26, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

14:38:15, 9 April 2015 review of submission by 24.13.237.93


Hi Onel5969 - I sent you the following message on March 16. I see that you have replied to messages before and after my message, but you have not replied to my message. I have copied it below and would greatly appreciate a response since I think that we have established the required notability to publish the article for the reasons explained below. Thank you !

16:53:03, 16 March 2015 review of submission by 24.13.237.93[edit] 24.13.237.93 (talk · contribs) Draft:Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)


I don't understand why the submission for Kol Hadash Humanistic Congregation was declined. The congregation is "notable" both as the "oldest and largest Humanistic Jewish congregation in Illinois" and for its rabbi emeritus being "the first Humanistic rabbi in Illinois." There are citations to articles ABOUT the congregation (not just a passing reference) in two different editions of the Chicago Tribune (Jan 13, 2008 and Sept 15, 2014), the Daily Herald (Dec 23, 2009), and WBEZ radio (July 16 2014).

Wikipedia has published articles about other Jewish congregations that have almost no citations or special distinction. See the links below:

1. Congregation Solel in Highland Park, Illinois - This article has almost no references, and none of the three references cited are independent, third-party references like a newspaper. The article was printed asking for additional submissions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congregation_Solel

2. North Shore Congregation Israel in Glencoe, Illinois – This article has only two references, one of which is just a “dictionary and sourcebook,” and the other is a reference to the synagogue’s building. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Shore_Congregation_Israel

3. Temple Beth El in Madison, Wisconsin – This article has NO citations at all. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Beth_El_(Madison,_Wisconsin)

4. Temple Beth El in San Antonio, Texas – This article has only one citation, and not for anything that makes them “notable” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Beth-El_(San_Antonio)

5. Temple Beth El in Great Neck, New York – No citation for anything other than its location. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temple_Beth-El_(Great_Neck,_New_York)

6. Beth Shalom in Frederick, Maryland – Nothing notable about it. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beth_Sholom_Congregation_(Frederick,_Maryland)

I would appreciate any explanation or specific instruction that would enable me to edit the article and have it approved for publication.

Thank you!

Mitchel Kriegman update

I appreciate you taking the time to go over the proposed changes to the Mitchell Kriegman. In my draft article, you should know that all of the references are in the References section (Reflist|ref=), I use shortcuts in the body of the article to reduce the clutter and it helps me avoid duplicate references. Kriegman is a nice guy and he has refrained from editing his article for many years, now as a novelist, he'd like to have his film career documented and have an article without banners in the header.

Brooks Benedict Biography Page

Dear Editor Onel5969, I appreciate your time and effort in review and acceptance of “Brooks Benedict” biography page as an addition to Wikipedia. Similarly, I am grateful for your kind note, in reference to which, I thought that I had directly submitted the page. Also, I am not very familiar with the rating system. However the page that I submitted contains historical references important to him and the topic. They are not found in any other collective. Please note that all that was known about him as reported in public databases did not surpass 3-4 sentences. Thereby his page at Wikipedia is the most comprehensive, and importantly underlines his education, military service, and challenges in an acting career spanning silent movies to television. In this respect, I would be grateful if you could advise me as to how further improve this page so that it reaches a level higher stub. I understand that stub articles can be deleted. Also, I am curious to see if I am credited with the creation of the page. Respectfully, M.

"copyvio" reversion of Paradise Valley additions, continued

Hey Onel5969: A few days back I posted a proposed revision as a question for you under "copyvio" reversion of Paradise Valley additions -- have not heard back though I see other action on your talk page -- so maybe you didn't see it? If it's appropriate, I'd appreciate your feedback on this proposed revision -- this process occasioned quite a bit more useful research and a much better submission --thanks for that! and hope you agree.
