Nomination of LGBT billionaires for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article LGBT billionaires is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/LGBT billionaires until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Liz Read! Talk! 14:44, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

License tagging for File:Sorry Cover.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Sorry Cover.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:05, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review for 24-Hour Vevo Record

An editor has asked for a deletion review of 24-Hour Vevo Record. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Prhdbt [talk] 18:34, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Remove the AFD tag again and you will be blocked. --NeilN talk to me 20:15, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have reverted your non-admin close of this AfD, which was highly improper for two reasons:

  • WP:NAC lists as appropriate NAC closures: "Clear keep outcomes after a full listing period (stated in the instructions to each XfD, this is usually seven days), absent any contentious debate among participants." (my emphasis). This had run for only three days, and there were delete !votes.
  • You had already expressed an opinion in the debate, and were therefore disqualified from closing it - see WP:BADNAC. Even an admin should not close a debate in which they have !voted.

If you think new information has come to light which alters things, the proper course is to explain it in a comment in the debate, and let other participants decide whether to change their !votes, and an independent closing admin decide what weight to give them. However sure you are of what the outcome should be, you do not get to decide it off your own bat.JohnCD (talk) 20:21, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

25 (Adele album) has been nominated for Did You Know

October 2015

This user is asking that their block be reviewed:

Moonsprite (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I'm absolutely not a sock puppet. I created the Vevo Record page and I didn't know the rules that someone who was involved in the debate was allowed to keep or remove the page. A lot of other users were backing me on keeping it, and now I'm apparently part of a sock puppet conspiracy? I don't even care about the page anymore, if it needs to go away I'm alright. But this is untrue. (Btw, if the reason you think another user Moonlight33 is a sock puppet of mine, please be aware that we are both fans of Ariana Grande and her "thing" is moons, as her next album is called moonlight. He or she probably checked me out by me editing an upcoming song page of her.)

Notes:

  • In some cases, you may not in fact be blocked, or your block has already expired. Please check the list of active blocks. If no block is listed, then you have been autoblocked by the automated anti-vandalism systems. Please remove this request and follow these instructions instead for quick attention by an administrator.
  • Please read our guide to appealing blocks to make sure that your unblock request will help your case. You may change your request at any time.
Administrator use only:

If you ask the blocking administrator to comment on this request, replace this template with the following, replacing "blocking administrator" with the name of the blocking admin:

{{Unblock on hold |1=blocking administrator |2= I'm absolutely not a sock puppet. I created the [[Vevo Record]] page and I didn't know the rules that someone who was involved in the debate was allowed to keep or remove the page. A lot of other users were backing me on keeping it, and now I'm apparently part of a sock puppet conspiracy? I don't even care about the page anymore, if it needs to go away I'm alright. But this is untrue. (Btw, if the reason you think another user Moonlight33 is a sock puppet of mine, please be aware that we are both fans of [[Ariana Grande]] and her "thing" is moons, as her next album is called moonlight. He or she probably checked me out by me editing an upcoming song page of her.) |3 = ~~~~}}

If you decline the unblock request, replace this template with the following code, substituting {{subst:Decline reason here}} with a specific rationale. Leaving the decline reason unchanged will result in display of a default reason, explaining why the request was declined.

{{unblock reviewed |1= I'm absolutely not a sock puppet. I created the [[Vevo Record]] page and I didn't know the rules that someone who was involved in the debate was allowed to keep or remove the page. A lot of other users were backing me on keeping it, and now I'm apparently part of a sock puppet conspiracy? I don't even care about the page anymore, if it needs to go away I'm alright. But this is untrue. (Btw, if the reason you think another user Moonlight33 is a sock puppet of mine, please be aware that we are both fans of [[Ariana Grande]] and her "thing" is moons, as her next album is called moonlight. He or she probably checked me out by me editing an upcoming song page of her.) |decline = {{subst:Decline reason here}} ~~~~}}

If you accept the unblock request, replace this template with the following, substituting Accept reason here with your rationale:

{{unblock reviewed |1= I'm absolutely not a sock puppet. I created the [[Vevo Record]] page and I didn't know the rules that someone who was involved in the debate was allowed to keep or remove the page.
