User talk:Jo-Jo Eumerus

Note to self

As time permits, create the following:

• Ngatemato seamounts
• Tarava seamounts, also known as the Savannah seamounts
• Taukina seamounts

More arguably, considering the sheer amount of material:

• Foundation seamounts
• Macdonald hotspot
• Macdonald seamount

To add to the lakes list:

• Lake Cancosa

In addition, add inline citations to the paragraph of neopluvial, see if anything on de:Diskussion:Ausbruch des Samalas 1257 can be used on 1257 Samalas eruption and whether Lascar (volcano) would make a good DYK. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:38, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Done and done, but it looks like the 2800m height that @Sextant: flagged as implausible on the Samalas article is in the source - perhaps the source itself made a typo (800->2800m)? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 18:57, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Also try to fix Bowie Seamount and Mount Tambora. JoJo Eumerus mobile (talk) 12:07, 13 October 2017 (UTC)

Cleaned up the Bowie page and sent Tambora to FA review. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 10:15, 15 October 2017 (UTC)

Lee Dae-yeol

Hello, yesterday you deleted Lee Dae-yeol per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lee Dae-yeol and I just want to make you aware that it has immediately been created again. Abdotorg (talk) 12:26, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Greetings, @Abdotorg: I see someone already tagged it for deletion as a repost. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:50, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Woodward Camp

Could you undelete the redirect Camp Woodward? Thanks. WikiOriginal-9 (talk) 17:55, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Might make more sense to ask @Lankiveil: as they did perform the second deletion. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:17, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

@WikiOriginal-9: I assume that this was deleted as a part of the deletion of the now restored Woodward Camp. It isn't protected and there was never anything at that page other than the redirect, so you should be good to recreate it. Lankiveil ^{(speak to me)} 23:56, 20 October 2017 (UTC).

@Lankiveil: I was mainly requesting undeletion to save the history. WikiOriginal-9 (talk) 00:32, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

There really isn't any history. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 11:13, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Jacob barnett

Hi Jo-Jo! I see you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jacob Barnett (4th nomination), and thought you might be interested in the new Jacob barnett article (note the lower case last name). Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 20:32, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Content is completely different, but it doesn't seem like the concerns in the AFD have been resolved. Imma tag for deletion as G4. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:37, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

DYK for Lascar (volcano)

On 23 October 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Lascar (volcano), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Lascar volcano (pictured) has created at least one mushroom? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Lascar (volcano). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Lascar (volcano)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Quick comment

I don't have a problem with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/List_of_schools_in_Jamaica_(2nd_nomination) which was nothing like the page envisaged when I started the article 12 years ago but I think perhaps you should have insisted that they looked at all the "Lists of Schools in" pages, of which there were hundreds, per WP:Lists, if that still exists as a policy

--BozMo talk 13:52, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

I do not generally think of other articles that aren't in scope of a given AfD but are worth discussing anyway when closing it; pinging @Ajf773, Clarityfiend, and Base: who may be interested however. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 14:56, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

The company behind me/we

Jo Jo, I read that you deleted an article about Sgrouples Inc., the company behind me/we. Can you tell me where I might learn more about this company? Page Notes (talk) 14:15, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

Aye, it was deleted per this discussion. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 14:54, 23 October 2017 (UTC)

If you are asking about the company, the website might be a good start. As for Wikipedia's article, people in the discussion noted there is apparently no indication that sufficient reliable independent third-party coverage exists to justify an article.

Page Deletion explanation?

Hi Jo-Jo, I am following the steps in the deletion review "please attempt to discuss the matter with the closing admin as this could resolve the matter more quickly". Forgive me if I'm in the wrong place I am new to messaging via Wikipedia. The article page Essential Beauty was deleted this month, I am trying to understand why? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Essential_Beauty 22:49, 23 October 2017 (UTC)EssentialBeauty (talk)

Greetings, @EssentialBeauty:. As people noted in the discussion you linked nobody seems to be talking about the group the page was about, which makes it not notable in Wikipedia's terms. Incidentally, it's not a good idea to pick an username that is the same as the name of an organization. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:25, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for your tip on the username, I've fixed it. @Jo-Jo Eumerus: can you tell me what it would take for a group (company) with over 25 years history and employing hundreds of people across 70+ locations throughout Australia to be notable in the eyes of Wikipedia? We've been active on Wikipedia for a long time and use this space to share our history, achievements and progress, it was so disappointing to see it all deleted. Am I able to retrieve our old article content to use as a potential starting point for a re-write? Thanks in advance! JonD(AUS) (talk) 22:54, 24 October 2017 (UTC)

@JonD(AUS): WP:NCORP explains some of the criteria. To make it brief, if other people with a reputation for accuracy (say, a major newspaper) who are not connected with your company have written substantial text about you, then an article is acceptable. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 14:49, 25 October 2017 (UTC)

DYK for Arago hotspot

On 26 October 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Arago hotspot, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Arago hotspot may have been creating volcanoes, islands, atolls, and seamounts such as Îles Maria, Tuvalu, and the Marshall Islands for the past 120 million years? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Arago hotspot. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Arago hotspot), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Reason for deletion of my wikipedia page

Hi Jo-Jo Eumerus,

I would like to know the reason why a wikipedia page has been deleted - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rizwan_Koita.

It was active for a long time until it was deleted recently. Please let me know how do I get this page back up.

Thanks, Edgar Stephens
