iServer proposed deletion
Hi there,
My apologies for deleting the Article-for-deletion notice - this was accidental when I made the article title a lower case template. iServer is a product developed by Orbus Software, whose page was recently deleted. Could this be why the iServer page is now being flagged for lack of notability? The iServer page was flagged right after the Orbus Software page was deleted so I'm just trying to understand a bit better the problems with this page
Many thanks in advance — Preceding unsigned comment added by BatesyM (talk • contribs) 13:53, 14 May 2015
- @BatesyM: Well, had you not deleted the PROD template the article would have been deleted in a few days, so that is not an issue. What happens now is that we, you included, please, discuss the deletion at the deletion discussion page and a consensus is formed, after which the article will be kept or will be deleted.
- Having looked at your talk page I see I also nominated Orbus for speedy deletion. There must be some causal link there. I imagine I was simply following up links to see if other things required consideration. We are very happy to have notable software whether the producer is notable and has an article (or not) or is not inherently notable, so that =, of itself, is not the link. It must be that the Orbus article attracted my attention for a different reason. You are right min that it is not likely to be coincidence.
- Your road now is to look for referencing that will make iServer a no brainer to keep. We require references from significant coverage about the topic of the article, and independent of it, and in WP:RS please. See WP:42. You have tome. The discussion will run, generally, for seven days. But do not leave it until the final day. Make the referencing improvements, and then state on the discussion that you wish to keep the article and have improved the references.. Do it once and do it well.
Thank you very much for the feedback, I will work on this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BatesyM (talk • contribs) 13:53, 14 May 2015
Re your comments, etc. for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Anne_Seisen_Saunders
Hi,
Ah, good, you got a break from all of this... so did I!
I think I've gotten all the inline links removed. Am I right, that does not include the footnote or reference numbering?
I know I'm short on external references... She certainly isn't as well known as some Zen Abbots. However, it's unlikely that there will be challenges. Am working to find more.
In the Zen Buddhist Tradition in America, Abbots and others are referred to by their Buddhist names, rather than their surname. For example, Enkyo Pat Ohara (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enkyo_Pat_O%27Hara) is known as Enkyo, her Buddhist name, rather than O'Hara as would be typical in American Journalism. Similarly, John Daido Loori (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Daido_Loori) is also known more often by his Buddhist name, Diado. Hence when I refer to Anne Seisen Saunders I use Seisen rather than her surname... does that make sense and am I okay to continue?
I'm about half way through a major rewrite... more tomorrow.

- @Annew43: Correct. References 'appear' to be inline, but actually gather at the end. With names, the common name will take precedence. This is a small thing, since pages can be moved to new names at any time Fiddle Faddle 11:16, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
Username block
Hello, Tim. I agree with almost all of what you said at User talk:Acorn Publications, but there is one point where I think you are mistaken. The blocking administrator chose to give only a username-block, which means that the editor was free to continue editing, as long as he or she did not use that username; this means that IP editing was not block-evasion. Personally, I would not have given a username-block, and I have now changed the block, but we can't blame the editor for editing without logging in, under the circumstances.

- Fair comment, JamesBWatson Were I an admin I would have checked more deeply. Fiddle Faddle 10:55, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- If it's of any interest to you, I never use username blocks. 99% of them are given to promotional editors, and it is, in my opinion, totally unhelpful to tell them that the username is the only reason for the block, when it clearly is not the only reason. Doing so tells them that it's perfectly acceptable to go on editing in the same promotional way they have been doing, so long as they use a username which hides their conflict of interest, so we don't know about it. Why anyone would think that is a good idea I can't imagine, but loads of admins do. The other 1% of username blocks are good-faith new editors, who have done nothing wrong except that they didn't know about some aspect of the username policy, such as that a username can't end in "bot", or whatever. In that case, why bite the newcomer by blocking them, instead of just giving them a friendly message explaining the problem, and asking them to change their username? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 11:19, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
- @JamesBWatson: Until today I had given this matter no thought. Now you point it out it is plain as a pikestaff. Thank you. If I am ever unwise enough to apply for adminship successfully I will act in the same way.
- I like your contribution to the AFD on the stairlift folk. I often do a full reference analysis and have taken to placing it in my !vote at AFD when necessary. This time I was busy with real life. I have placed a further note on the COI editor's talk page. I think they are not an asset. Your mileage may vary. Fiddle Faddle 11:24, 8 July 2015 (UTC)
IP 80.193.74.227 and Acorn Mobility
Hello. The IP definitely has a conflict of interest on Acorn Mobility since the hostname of the IP is "ms.acornstairlifts.co.uk", clearly showing that it's a company employee doing the editing. Thomas.W talk 08:08, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
- Indeed it has. It is also evading a block, but has not edited for a while. Thank you Thomas.W Fiddle Faddle 08:09, 9 July 2015 (UTC).
{{Admin help}}
Please look at this AFD which has reached a conclusion. I am not competent to perform the process follow through. It needs speedy closure and removal of the AfD banners from the draft. Fiddle Faddle 10:55, 9 July 2015 (UTC)
Done. Favonian (talk) 11:13, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

I don't know if you have noticed but Bretthuk72 is the same user as Acorn Publications, they've just had a name change. Thomas.W talk 19:52, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
