Thanks for raising this SPI, but on investigating I found an older sockmaster and an existing SPI at WP:Sockpuppet investigations/FilmMakers00023. So I have added your FilmMakers20168 to that, and also no less than seven other obvious socks. I'll say one thing for this guy, at least he makes it easy to keep track of him!

André Laug (company)

Ar you sure about your template? I was quickly looking at it and it looks to me there is enough at least for a standard deletion procedure.--Alexmar983 (talk) 14:10, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi, what do you mean by a "standard deletion procedure"? Do you mean a prod, or an AFD, or a different speedy deletion criteria? OnionRing (talk) 14:11, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

sorry I am not a super experct of deletions in enwiki (on itwiki, frwiki and dewiki I am, but not here). If you use "slang" without links I am not 99% sure, but I guess it is what is called an "Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion", I had that in mind. I've left a small message in Talk:André Laug (company).--Alexmar983 (talk) 14:28, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Apologies for my use of slang. Yes, by "prod or AFD" I meant WP:Proposed deletion or an Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion. If it were merely a question of notability, then yes an AFD would be appropriate, but the article is blatant WP:SPAM, so speedy deletion is the better choice. OnionRing (talk) 14:35, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

that's no spam. It is a description. If you want to reduce some part, help yourself, I am starting to read it, but a deletion is too hard. --Alexmar983 (talk) 14:41, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Perhaps it's hard to detect for someone whose second language is English: I would find spam difficult to detect in French or Spanish, certainly. But the whole article needs a rewrite, per WP:CSF#G11. OnionRing (talk) 14:44, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

I still don't think it is so critical, I speak English since I am 8 years old (I can imitate even the accents), and I come form itWikipedia which is one of the less inclusive wikipedia in the world. The style is not so bad, it mainly centers on past events and it actually relies on the sources. See also Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Fashion#Andr.C3.A9_Laug_.28company.29, they have just pinged me.--Alexmar983 (talk) 15:13, 23 May 2016 (UTC)

Mark as patrolled

Hi!
If you have tagged a new page for speedy deletion (like Wildstylerecords or HDI youth marketeers), can you please also mark the page as patrolled? No further action should be needed by other patrollers, so this helps avoid unnecessary work for others. Cheers. Kolbasz (talk) 06:43, 24 May 2016 (UTC)

As someone who's had her share at pushing back on patrollers and admins who have tended to put (faulty) speedy deletion notices on work from and of the Global South and/or women, I'm deeply appreciative of your fair and balanced work.

Thanks for the editing on the R9-Arms submachine gun article

First off, thanks for the editing. It's my first article and I have a few questions.

1: There is information that is cited in the sources, but is factually incorrect. However, there are no good sources to back up the correct version. The most technical information available is from a reddit thread. Is there anything I can do?

2: I reverted the removal of the Speculation as to the gun's origin section, sourced it (I finally figured out how to do inline citations) and edited it to follow WP:BLP. Is this acceptable, or is the problem larger than I thought?

Thanks again Astor Thrope (talk) 16:05, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi. The source looks good for that last section. Regarding the problem with incorrect info in sources, how do we know that they're incorrect? We need to be able to WP:VERIFY any contentious claims, and unfortunately personal knowledge is considered WP:Original research which is not allowed on Wikipedia. Reddit is also not considered to be a WP:Reliable source. So we have to stick with what we can verify for now. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 16:13, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Glad the last section is good. As for the problem with incorrect information, there isn't anything too glaring. There that could be said that is left off, and only really one thing that is flat out untrue (the gun doesn't take Uzi mags, they just look a lot like Uzi mags). I'm not sure if I should leave it as is or remove the reference to it using Uzi mags, especially considering that the only source to the contrary is personal knowledge. I'm leaving it as is for now, but it just sorta bothers me that it's wrong. Astor Thrope (talk) 19:39, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Inquizzitive

Hello! I speak in reference to my speedy deletion tag on the article Inquizzitive (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/inquizzitive). This doesn't meet the criteria for deletion because it's not an organized event about party or tour. It is about an open to all annual quiz event, the oldest one in Tripura, India that has been taking place for 12 years now and completes 13 years this year. This has been well recognized by the Honorable Chief Minister of the state, Sri Manik Sarkar. This has been an authentic event for the last decade and has a reputation of it's on. A similar article exists in Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/pravega. Please reconsider your decision. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2Dpedia (talk • contribs) 19:57, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

I repaired your cut n paste move

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Aftermath (Muse) a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Aftermath (Muse song). This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 22:34, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi. I am autoconfirmed, but as I'm not an admin I couldn't move the new article over the 2-edit redirect. Yes, I could have requested the non-controversial move at RFM, but since I was merging a brand new article to a redirect, there was no edit history lost, and I credited the new article in my edit summary. It was a case of WP:BOLD. If that's a problem, then feel free to revert and insist I do an RFM. But I can't really see the point in this case. I have no other similar moves in my edit history, so no need for a RFHM either. OnionRing (talk) 23:37, 3 June 2016 (UTC)

I already undid your cut n paste move and moved the page properly. Please don't take shortcuts of this kind. Here's a better shortcut: Let me know on my talk page and I will promptly move the page for you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:11, 4 June 2016 (UTC)

Brendan Dassey

Hi

Sorry I do not know how to respond via Wikipedia - I have spent the day repurposing it and adding more citations and removing bias - I posted on Reddit to see what sort of response the piece would get - I do think you are being quite presumptuous, as you will note I have painstakingly gone through the piece to ensure everything is corroborated and added the correct references.

I did not respond to you because I dont know how to navigate Wikipedia as yet and have only worked it out now - I thought your offer was very generous I just didnt know how to take you up on it.

Please dont think I have an agenda except to ensure there is a profile for Brendan Dassey in its own right on Wikipedia, Redditt is a rabbit hole and I put it up for response nothing more.

Kind regards

Close Connection notification in my new article

Hello there, OnionRing. Thank you for your feedback on my first article here in Wikipedia - Humberto Silva.

I'm here to respond to your claim that my article has a conflict of interest, because I may be related in some way with the person in which the article is about. I understand the reason that leads you to think it, probably because of my username includes a lastname that is the same as the person of the article, that lastname being Silva. But that lastname is maybe one of the most common name in Brazil and, both me and the person who I wrote the article about, are from that same country. But that's the only related thing that I have in common with the person of the article. I repeat, I'm not related with the person Humberto Silva in any manner, we are simply from the same country and share a very common lastname.

Again I appreciate your review and feedback on my article, I'm very much open for more discussion that can lead me to became a better Wikipedian! Julio.frasneli.silva (talk) 17:09, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello.I'm glad to hear you have no connection to Mr Silva, but it wasn't on the basis of the surname alone than I guessed a conflict of interest: the tone of the article is highly promotional throughout, and there are several unsourced claims. Let's try to improve the article. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 17:58, 8 June 2016 (UTC)

I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for 3d hologram pyramid, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, under criterion A1 because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. It was a badly written article, but it gave enough context to identify its subject, namechecking two manufacturers. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion.

I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Aparna Vinod, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: wasn't deleted via AfD, AfD was closed owing to a G5 speedy deletion. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. —SpacemanSpiff 17:45, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

Aha, you're right, sorry. OnionRing (talk) 17:46, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

No worries, this is a borderline A7 case and if I hadn't seen the AfD I would have deleted it as such, but I decided against A7 deletion (because of the keep vote at the AfD) and just leaving the PROD intact. —SpacemanSpiff 17:49, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

She appears to have had some coverage in WP:RS over her behaviour in her first feature film, so this will have to go back to AFD by the look of it. OnionRing (talk) 17:51, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

Percy Rivington Pyne

There are SIX men that have bore the name. I had listed all six. You have eliminated PRP III. Any historical reason why? Also you have directed Percy Rivington Pyne II (1857 - 1929) AND Percy Rivington Pyne 2nd (1882 - 1950) to the SAME article. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME PERSON. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rbabecki (talk • contribs) 20:49, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

Chaudry Muhammad Ali

Hi there, I've noticed you tagging new articles as CSD:A7 within about a minute of them having being created, in the future try to give the such pages around 10 minutes before tagging and also please make a background check of the article for notability. In the instance of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MuhammadAliChudry for example, the person is indeed notable and has their own wikipedia page already which you can find here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chaudhry_Muhammad_Ali, this would make the page you tagged as A7 more appropriately an A10 (Duplicate page). In any case this is just a heads up to do a quick google search of any article you're about to tag regardless of how little content there is, obviously I do not count attack pages or blatant hoaxes in these situations, tag those immediately if you find them (G10 and G3). Have a good day Mr rnddude (talk) 14:01, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi, have a look at his talk page: all he's done is post up vanity pages. I do normally wait 10 minutes, unless it's obviously a repeat post or an obvious case of someone misplacing their user page. I've tried userfying pages like this, but most often they get deleted by admins. OnionRing (talk) 14:03, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

I see, I actually didn't think to check their userpage, shows how good my checks are eh? Mr rnddude (talk) 14:05, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

No worries mate, there are a lot of trigger-happy NPP editors bashing potentially good articles a minute after they've been started by new editors, but I do try hard to keep to the spirit as well as the letter of the guidelines. I also try to clean up new articles where a quick cleanup will prevent a G11 or a BLP prod. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 14:08, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

All good, happy CSD tagging. Mr rnddude (talk) 14:09, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

Conflict of Interest

Hello, OnionRing! Thanks so much for the message. This is the first time I've contributed to Wikipedia so I apologize for my ignorance! Just wanted to follow up with a couple questions: I do have a conflict of interest as a member of the band (although the username is intended to represent myself as an individual rather than the band as an organization), is there any way for the text to be reviewed by a third party like yourself to ensure that it's not "whitewashing" or "promotional" or otherwise in violation of guidelines?

My primary reason for writing the article this morning was to clear up confusion between "The Mallett Brothers Band" and my father David Mallett, who has an existing wikipedia page, due to a recent unexplained increase in the number of older folks showing up to our shows thinking they were seeing our father... a quandary for us, him and them.

Let me know if there's any way to clear that up; I do work for The Mallett Brothers Band, for full disclosure; but if there's any way an editor could check the text out or find another solution that would work without violating any guidelines, that would be amazing; otherwise, I totally understand the policy, no worries at all and thanks again.

Wdmallett (talk) 17:54, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

There's nothing overly promotional in the article at the moment, but I would suggest that you avoid editing the article further. Let someone unconnected with your band do it. If you're notable, they will eventually. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 17:58, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Srabonti Narmeen Ali

Hi OnionRing! Yes I did create an identical account under the name Srabonti Narmin Ali, but I realized later that the spelling of the latter was mistaken. If we could keep the page for Srabonti Narmeen Ali, and delete the other Srabonti Narmin Ali, that would be great. As for the references, I added two links at the bottom but was unable to create a separate References section. Sorry I am new to Wikipedia and trying to get a hang of this thing. You could edit it if you like and add in a References section with the two links I posted. Let me know what I need to do. Thanks.

Edit warring at Gold Line (Los Angeles Metro)

Thanks for your edits at the above page, but it appears you may have unintentionally edit warred. Per BRD, it's probably best to take the discussion to the talk page at this point. I've speedy nom'd the links added by the other editor per A1 and A3. Regards, James (^talk/_contribs) 15:15, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

I reverted once, and then edited his broken link. I wasn't planning to edit it again, but what I've done so far isn't exactly edit warring. The new editor in question has been creating empty articles with misspelled titles. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 15:17, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

Copyright Violation on Company Logo Monster Moto

Hi, I appreciate the welcome and the help on editing the Monster Moto page. I added the company logo, however it was removed for copyright violation. I believe because it was applied under the CC license incorrectly. Since I am not autoconfirmed yet, I was hoping for a little help on how I should properly add the Company Logo to the page? While it is trademarked, it is obviously available for fair use so we'd like to make it available on Wikipedia. What is my best course of action? Thanks!

Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities

Thank you for contacting me about the page for the Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities (IASH) at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_for_Advanced_Studies_in_the_Humanities. You said to me "you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are, work for, or represent, the subject of that article." This is just to confirm that I am not the IASH, I do not work for IASH, I do not represent IASH, and I am not the subject of the article. I happen to work in Edinburgh where IASH is based, and I have attended a couple of IASH events. I don't think, however, that this adds up to a conflict of interest.

@Xx236: No, you have it completely backwards. I removed a db-nocontext added by a trigger-happy NPP to a new article which was completely clear about its subject. It's an unreferenced one-line stub, but rather than whine at me on my talk page about how it's "one of the worst pages in this Wikipedia", did it occur to you to Google for it? The first article returned says that it's one of the most important sites in Iran for an endemic species. If the creator's writing autobiographies, then deal with that separately. OnionRing (talk) 09:10, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

I guess it was automatically marked reviewed by you when you added the CSD template from Twinkle. I later saw that the article author removed the speedy deletion template themselves. Just wondering, is it notable enough? Or should it be sent to AfD? --Lemongirl942 (talk) 04:14, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Hi. It was originally just a paste of marketing from their website, bud the article creator did a complete rewrite, so I let the removal of the speedy tag slide. It seems reasonably notable per WP:CORP, but if you disagree you can always take it to AFD. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 06:32, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Ritmo (musician)

Hi, I've re-writen everything, used a language that suit for wikipedia , I added more references, I removed everything that looks like a promotion, and I compared it and took reference from 5 other musician from the same genre. I do not understand what is promotional if I have external third party articles and information that comes from leading magazines of the musical genre.... Thanks for your time, ElectronicWiki (talk) 09:24, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

No, I'm not. I think there are many psytrance artists that should be in wikipedia as a source of information. I do love his work and music style and I'm a fan of the psychedelic music scene, plus we are from the same town and I know his work, but I do not know him in person. that's why I choose to write about him. It was much more comfortable for me to start a wikipedia page on him instead of a huge psytrance atists. can you please remove it from speedy deletion, and check that I did really changed a lot of the content...— Preceding unsigned comment added by ElectronicWiki (talk • contribs) 10:35, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

All you've removed is this. It's still highly promotional. OnionRing (talk) 12:25, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply, I just want to let you know that I edited the article on my computer localy and in the sandbox that's why you don't have the log file of the edits I've done and just this text deletion I did. I have a copy of both articles there are way much more change than that. this is just a small change I did earlier so the page won't be promotional at all, I can assure you that if you have read the first article and this article you would notice a huge change. I think that I did broke few rules (not by purpose) in the first article, but I did change a lot in the second one this I can promise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ElectronicWiki (talk • contribs) 12:40, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

South Australian Railways CSDs

I see several CSD's relating to South Australian Railways. On one hand, these might be a little premature, as the editor just started working on them today. On the other hand, I am firmly of the belief that while we use to allow "under construction" and mainspace years ago, that's no longer accepted practice especially given the existence of draft space.

One option is to contact the editor note that they should not be creating articles this way, urged them to start such articles in draft space and only move them into mainspace when they are far enough along to meet our standards.

In some cases, it might be polite to offer to move these incomplete articles to draft space for them, although I'll understand if you think it would be less work to blow them away and urged the editors to start over.

This is a new editor's would like to approach the editor in a positive way. What do you think?--S Philbrick(Talk) 15:23, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello. Yes I definitely agree on moving them to draft. It looks he was trying to populate the redlinks at South Australian Railways#SAR steam locomotives. You might have seen that I offered him some help at User talk:Jjbm2011#Please slow down, with a pointer to a good train article to use as as template. But I'm happy to help with draftifying (if that's a real word) those stub articles. Thanks, OnionRing (talk) 15:28, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
