Hey Legacypac,

Thanks for taking the time to review https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:PageCloud! Have to say off the bat that as a fellow Canadian I'm particularly impressed by your list of travel destinations... Hopefully I can say the same at some future point.

With regards to the article; at the outset I wasn't sure about being able to meet notability standards for the subject, but I thought dedicated articles about the company in the National Post and Globe and Mail (among others) would serve as credible sources because they are internationally distributed, published, reliable, and independent. I recognize that you probably see a lot of companies so the standards for notability are rigorous.

I'm trying to assess the likelihood of even getting this article accepted. I can provide additional sources but I just want to establish a baseline for what you would require to make this pursuit worthwhile. Thanks in advance for your help!

Request for review

Dear Legacypac, please if you could review my Draft:Susy Rottonara. The international awarded productions are supported by reliable sources. I have cancelled the references to the user's generated sources and I have substituded the reference to the publication on her own website with the link to the festival. I hope now it is ok. Thank you for your time and for your help. Best regards.Johannade57 (talk) 07:10, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

28 April 2018 submission review of the page Ben-Soussan T.D.

Hello Legacypac, thank you for your message. It is the first I try to create a new page on the English Wikipedia and your suggestions and tips are very helpful. Thank you very much, sicerely Pasciutoale (talk) , 28 April 2018 (UTC)

On the fence if Behavioral Signals meets WP:CORPDEPTH

Hi! I would be so grateful for your help in understanding why there is a possible issue as to if Behavioral Signals meets Corpdepth guidelines. I read in these guidelines that "Wikipedia bases its decision about whether an organization is notable enough to justify a separate article on the verifiable evidence that the organization or product has attracted the notice of reliable sources unrelated to the organization or product." Behavioral Signals and/or its founders have been mentioned in articles in the New York Times, LA Times, Washington Post and other news sources which have featured emotion recognition and behavioral analytics. Companies, like Affectiva who do emotion recognition in faces, and Beyond Verbal, that analyze emotions from vocal intonations, have a corporate page. Behavioral Signals is in the emotions speech/voice industry, as is Beyond Verbal. We want to explain what is this new trend, especially in the age of conversational AI, voice assistants.

I would be grateful if you could help me in understanding ways I can make the Behavioral Signals page fit better to the Wikipedia guidelines.

Please put this information on the talkpage of the draft. A reviewer will find it quite helpful. Legacypac (talk) 14:44, 9 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:ChessQueen1 - Your only edits have been made to the draft for Behavioral Signals and to inquire about its acceptance. Do you have a connection to Behavioral Signals? Robert McClenon (talk) 16:57, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:Robert McClenon - To answer your question, I know Behavioral Signals team. Is that an issue? I want to be objective and I believe what I have written is the truth. ChessQueen1 (talk) 18:52, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:ChessQueen1 - Your only edits are to Behavioral Signals and to have it accepted. When you say that you know the team, are you a member of the team? Or are you simply editing Wikipedia to help out your friends get their own page? Robert McClenon (talk) 14:31, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:Robert McClenon - My affiliation to the company shouldn't have any impact as to it getting a wikipedia page. I know the company very well and nothing that I have written is false. ChessQueen1 (talk) 09:10, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:ChessQueen1 - Yes, your affiliation is applicable to your efforts to get the company a Wikipedia page. It is important that what you have written is true, but we are also concerned with notability and neutrality, and conflict of interest editors may be biased.

NPR Newsletter No.11 25 May 2018

Hello Legacypac, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!

ACTRIAL:

  • WP:ACREQ has been implemented. The flow at the feed has dropped back to the levels during the trial. However, the backlog is on the rise again so please consider reviewing a few extra articles each day; a backlog approaching 5,000 is still far too high. An effort is also needed to ensure that older unsuitable older pages at the back of the queue do not get automatically indexed for Google.

Deletion tags

  • Do bear in mind that articles in the feed showing the trash can icon may have been tagged by inexperienced or non NPR rights holders. They require your further verification.

Backlog drive:

  • A backlog drive will take place from 10 through 20 June. Check out our talk page at WT:NPR for more details. NOTE: It is extremely important that we focus on quality reviewing. Despite our goal of reducing the backlog as much as possible, please do not rush while reviewing.

Editathons

  • There will be a large increase in the number of editathons in June. Please be gentle with new pages that obviously come from good faith participants, especially articles from developing economies and ones about female subjects. Consider using the 'move to draft' tool rather than bluntly tagging articles that may have potential but which cannot yet reside in mainspace.

Paid editing - new policy

  • Now that ACTRIAL is ACREQ, please be sure to look for tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary. There is a new global WMF policy that requires paid editors to connect to their adverts.

Subject-specific notability guidelines

  • The box at the right contains each of the subject-specific notability guidelines, please review any that are relevant BEFORE nominating an article for deletion.
  • Reviewers are requested to familiarise themselves with the new version of the notability guidelines for organisations and companies.

Not English

  • A common issue: Pages not in English or poor, unattributed machine translations should not reside in main space even if they are stubs. Please ensure you are familiar with WP:NPPNE. Check in Google for the language and content, tag as required, then move to draft if they do have potential.

News

  • Development is underway by the WMF on upgrades to the New Pages Feed, in particular ORES features that will help to identify COPYVIOs, and more granular options for selecting articles to review.
  • The next issue of The Signpost has been published. The newspaper is one of the best ways to stay up to date with news and new developments. between our newsletters.

Go here to remove your name if you wish to opt-out of future mailings. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 20:34, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Your thoughts on New Pages Feed wireframes and copyvio

Hi Legacypac -- I know you're busy these days reviewing a lot of drafts (I've been watching the backlog number go down each day!) But I'm hoping we could get your thoughts and reactions to the update I posted on the New Pages Feed project page. There are some wireframes we've made to try to capture the conversation so far, and also some important open questions about how to implement copyvio detection. The WMF engineers are starting to write code, and I think your opinion will help give us direction. Thank you! -- MMiller (WMF) (talk) 22:27, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks - will see what I can add. Legacypac (talk) 22:34, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Legacypac,

I am currently creating a page for the Hard Rain Soloist Ensemble and after reviewing the page you left the following advice:

"I'm not sure this would survive as a standalone article but would be ok as a new section in the institution's page"

Hard Rain itself is an independent organisation and does not belong to an institution. You suggested it belonged to the Crescent Arts Centre which it does not. They are artist in residence there but this is only a temporary fixture. I stress again, Hard Rain is completely independent. I have attached links to three organisations similar to Hard Rain that do have verified Wikipedia pages. After looking at these pages over several months I cannot understand why our page has been declined.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psappha_New_Music_Ensemble https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Musica_Viva https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Da_Capo_Chamber_Players

What can I do to get Hard Rain's article verified?

Thanks for your help in advance,

It wasn't create-protected. The editor had already created a draft in draft space, so that if you tried to move the sandbox into draft space, it was blocked because there was already a page there. The two drafts are essentially the same, except that one version had its text hidden by mistake. I have declined one copy, and converted the other to a redirect to the declined draft. It wasn't create-protected, just a case of creating multiple copies of drafts. Robert McClenon (talk) 02:07, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Ok great. Legacypac (talk) 03:02, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
If you try to move a sandbox page into draft space and are blocked, it is much more common that it is just multiple copies of drafts than any sort of protection. Try to view the draft. In this case, the draft was malformed and appeared to be blank.
And Robert McClenon, this kind of thing is becoming a problem. I've recently come across a user (who ostensibly can't read English) who dumps poor, unsourced machine translations back in to main space which I had already moved to draft. In this instance, I deleted the draft and moved the mainspace version mainspace article back to draft. That is one way of legitimately deleting the mainspace piece, and the draft has not, in theory been deleted, because it has been replaced with the same original one. The only problem is that this action requires an admin. Thoughts? Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:46, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
User:Kudpung - My thinking is that a page should only be draftified once. I have seen, and I strongly disapprove of, move-warring in which a submitter moves from draft to article, and other editors move from article to draft. That is the wrong answer. In that case, User:Legacypac and I agree that AFD is right. Draftifying should only be done as a courtesy to the author, and tendentious authors are not entitled to the courtesy and should get AFD or WP:CSD. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:58, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
You're missing the point here: 'user (who ostensibly can't read English) who dumps poor, unsourced machine translations back in to main space'. So you want to do the author the courtesy of letting an inappropriate stay in mainspace while it gets debated for another 7 days? Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 10:38, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Super-short pages

After some prompting on IRC I added Category:Pending AfC submissions less than 450 bytes long to the pending submissions template to flag any templates <450 bytes, which should make for easy finding of sub-stubs that likely aren't properly referenced. Thought you might want to know (I know SQL has the dbase search, but this will update in real-time. Primefac (talk) 01:48, 28 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Training schools in China, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page English First (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Siege of Ragnarok 25

Hi there i would like to know why my submission https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Siege_of_Ragnarok_25 was declined? I was just telling the story about a real player battle that took place in ARK: Survival Evolved, it's just a battle report i have no idea how that would be a game guide. Looks like double standarts are prevalent here because this virtual battle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloodbath_of_B-R5RB was approved but my page about Ragnarok 25 not.
