Speedy deletion declined: Tradekorea

Hello JustBerry. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Tradekorea, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Being part of a notable entity indicates importance/significance (WP:CCSI#CORP, WP:CCSI#ORG). Thank you. SoWhy 08:04, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@SoWhy: Thanks for the note. Looking at the article's sources, claiming to be the largest business organization by one's own website (kita.org) does not make its notability verifiable. Also, the fourth reference seemed to be simply promoting or advertising the organization (tradeford.com). I suppose notability can be adequately verified via the other two sources? --JustBerry (talk) 15:03, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Notability or verifiability is not an issue for A7, just some claim of importance and significance, an explicitly lower standard. Usually, subjects that are part of a larger entity can be merged or redirected to a broader article per WP:ATD. You might want to consider that. Regards SoWhy 15:12, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@SoWhy: Before I post an AfD, I want locally hash out its merit as its own article further. The third reference (globaltrade.net) does not verify the subject's notability. However, the volume of trade represented by joins.com seems to suggest the potential for notability. Here's another source: [1]. If you have no further thoughts, I can proceed with posting the AfD. --JustBerry (talk) 15:47, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
At second thought, the extent of our discussion seems to imply the suitability of opening up an AfD. Opened. --JustBerry (talk) 16:38, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

NPR Newsletter No.11 25 May 2018

Hello JustBerry, 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) 20:35, 24 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Five years of editing

Hey, JustBerry. I'd like to wish you a wonderful First Edit Day on behalf of the Wikipedia Birthday Committee!
Have a great day!

@Chris troutman: Thanks! I really appreciate your commemorative efforts. --JustBerry (talk) 23:34, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Decline my page

Why u decline my page??? It took me like 17 seconds to write it Rais Cooper (talk) 20:09, 29 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Oshwah: @MSGJ: User left a "Hey" on both of your talk pages (Special:Contributions/Shelli015) after about a year of no activity and no prior interaction with either of you (even via edit reverts) in the past. Sounds like a duck of... (that's the mystery). (I called both of you to this talk page because I realize the sock is probably waiting for your replies on their talk page. Also, the title was made with Template:noping.) --JustBerry (talk) 08:44, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

User is now blocked. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 15:57, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

at last

after all these years have been called somebody else. Where I come from elsewhere is actually a geographical area so to speak - at last JarrahTree 23:21, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@JarrahTree: Sorry, what are you referring to? It is not so clear cut when we have both edited on multiple pages recently. --JustBerry (talk) 23:28, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
apology - I can be annoyingly obscure on talk pages - the new user https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:HTIDCam
and then I saw who created the veterinary medicine page and I think the synchronicity is just a little spooky.. Someone else...
I think maybe I need to be careful what I wish for today (at 8+ it is just the beginning)
btw - thank you so much for the link - [2] just brilliant, I can think of some applications for that now that I know it exists - must dig into the deep fathoms and rabbit holes that may well take me JarrahTree 23:32, 30 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
On that page, my edit summary was briefly acknowledging the fact that you had already welcomed the user. Regarding the link, no problem. Cheers, JustBerry (talk) 01:39, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks - the link to the veterinary area on the user page reminded me of the backlog of trying to keep vet med cats up to date JarrahTree 02:00, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Apologies if I've done something wrong here but i'm new to Wikipedia. I was using my sandbox just to draft up changes to an article that I wanted to make. You flagged it up as something to do with copyright violation so I thought it best to just blank it but you also seem to have flagged that as being wrong. Any chance you could explain this to me so i don't make the same mistake again?

Thanks Edit1224 (talk) 15:49, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Edit1224: Absolutely! Firstly, I truly appreciate your reaching out to me on my talk page; discussing and collaborating is all of what Wikipedia is about. Edit1224, welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone makes mistakes, but that's how we learn.
Some of the text that you had added to the page was directly copied from Ronald Duncan Literary Foundation website. In short, this is not allowed, particularly because the site is explicitly copyrighted. Wikipedia's copyright policies can get a bit extensive, but you can reach about the policies at WP:COPYVIO and WP:C.
With regards to the particular notice that I had posted on that page, the notice was requesting an administrator to delete some of the prior versions of the page, i.e. the verisons that contained copyrighted material. This is so that the copyrighted material is no longer in public view. Once again, the policy here can get a bit extensive, but the reference to that would be WP:CRD (criterion #1). I do appreciate your trying to remove the content on the problematic page. However, because copyrighted versions of that page are still stored in the page history, I merely wanted an administrator to delete those past versions of the page (not the entire page). No worries, though, as I have restored the page for you.
In short, you want to avoid copy-pasting from sites; paraphrasing is the way to go. If you're not sure, just ask! WP:TEAHOUSE is a great place to ask more experienced editors, and putting {{help me}} <your message> on your talk page is also another way of asking for help. I'll leave you an invitation to the Teahouse and a few welcome links on your talk page. --JustBerry (talk) 16:06, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@JustBerry Thanks for this. I had copied and pasted the info there so that I didn't have to keep flicking between the two web pages. Hadn't quite appreciated that the sandbox was also effectively a public page! Will bear that in mind for the future. Thanks for the help and the invites.

Talkback from Yu Jing Hao Tse

Hello, JustBerry. You have new messages at Yu Jing Hao Tse's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Hi,

Thanks for your advice. I am just learning the ropes and this is a lot of fun. I spent some time reviewing and learned a lot about references. I reviewed the article adding footnotes and researched a little more and added more references about the author and re-submitted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yu Jing Hao Tse (talkcontribs)

@Yu Jing Hao Tse: Fantastic! I am thrilled to see that you are having fun editing Wikipedia. I'll leave reviewing this version of the draft to another editor, as I already performed one review. --JustBerry (talk) 16:48, 31 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
