When leaving me a message, please DO NOT ADDRESS ME AS SIR. If you do, there's a good chance I won't answer

This user wishes she was back in Turks and Caicos But this in no way affects Chrissymad's ability to respond. She just wants everyone to know.

UVM

Hi,

In regards to UVM, you stated that my changes were promotional. I believe that at least the Online Training for UVM should have been left. That was written by one of Aldec's language experts and Research Engineer and it provides readers a free training to learn UVM. It only provides people with a resource to aid those interested in learning more about UVM instead of it being promotional. More information about the online training by Aldec for UVM can be found here. I hope that this can be reconsidered.

Unwarranted assumption

I see that there are currently messages on this page from two different editors who address you as "sir", and another one in your latest talk page archive. I, on the other hand, have not been addressed as "sir" in at least the last 1000 edits to my talk page. I wonder why so many people assume you are male. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:38, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

JamesBWatson I wonder daily myself since I've never met a male named "Chrissy" ;) CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 14:41, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Which reminds me, maybe I should add in big bold letters "PLEASE DO NOT ADDRESS ME AS SIR." CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 14:41, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Chrissytopher? 🤷 - TNT ^💖 14:43, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

I mean... it does have "Chris" in part of the name :-P ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 14:42, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Chrissy McKaigue is the only male listed at Chrissy. Home Lander (talk) 14:59, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Ironically, Home Lander, I did not think to check Wikipedia. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 15:00, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Don't forget about Chrissy Boy. Natureium (talk) 20:13, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Personally, I am happy not to be addressed as "sir", because to me it has a feel of cringing sycophancy, as well as being stiff and over formal. However, the fact that you get it so often and I so rarely puzzles me. I have now checked back and the last time I got a "sir" on my talk page was in May 2017, not far short of 2000 talk page edits ago, while you get it quite frequently. What do I do that discourages editors from calling me "sir"? There must be something. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 15:06, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

• You could always do like Premeditated Chaos did and put the “obnoxious pink userbox” up. I’ve been told it works :p TonyBallioni (talk) 15:09, 30 August 2018 (UTC)
• I'm not sure, Mrs. Watson. You could always add "sir" to your signature, and take out that pseudonym part. Drmies (talk) 20:08, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

I read this conversation and thought of Peppermint Patty telling Marcie to "stop calling me sir"! Just sayin' Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 18:03, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

Well spotted, @Ritchie333:. I had forgotten that. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 13:17, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

• For a very long time, I also thought Chrissy is a male editor; as nickname for chris/christopher. Now i think it is short for Christabella/Michelangelo/Christine. @JamesBWatson: I think it depends on what type of editors you are dealing with. Most of the indian editors tend to use sir/madam. Especially the paid ones. —usernamekiran(talk) 11:56, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

@Usernamekiran: yes, in fact when I told a couple of members of my family about this I said that I bet the editors were Indian. Perhaps the answer to my question is just that Chrissy does more editing than I do in India-related areas. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 14:48, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Reverting spam

Hello. I noticed that you reverted spamlinks on Whitefield, Bangalore but didn't warn the IP. To help keep track of which external links are being regularly spammed, and thus candidates for being blacklisted, it would be of great help if you would warn the user/IP and add the external link to the warning (formatted like this: [http://spam.brigadewoods.ind.in]) since the spammers will then show up when an external link search is being made (like this). I posted a warning and the external link in this case, since I happened to notice the revert, but I'm not always online. Cheers, - Tom | Thomas.W ^talk 10:57, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Articles for Creation: InsideSales.com

Hi. I'm having trouble understanding why the article InsideSales.com is being declined due to resources. Your first comment was about unreliable sources, so we found better sources, Yahoo Finance, Forbes, WSJ, Bloomberg, Gartner, Business Insider, Fortune, INC.com, etc. But then you mention that we just added the same advert back in (which isn't true we added additional sources to what was include previously). Can you help me understand what need sto be done to improve this article? Thank you. Ryanbreneman (talk) 16:04, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Question

I have a question for you, but I didn't want to publicly post it. Can you email me? CoachBriceWilliams at gmail Coachbricewilliams28 (talk) 17:43, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Coachbricewilliams28 Due to privacy concerns and for the sake of being transparent, I do not communicate off wiki. Sorry. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:45, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Chrissymad Fair enough. So in your edit comment you said the word "US" when communicating with Jaime. That is suggestive you are in the ICC and postulated yourself up against the ICOC/Jaime. Are you? If not, why say "US?" Coachbricewilliams28 (talk) 17:48, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Coachbricewilliams28 I think you've misread what I said, assuming you refer to this edit. I said in their "about us" section, which is on the source in question under "about us." I have absolutely no affiliation with whatever group you're referring to. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:55, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Chrissymad Ok awesome! haha I read "about us" and read in not as the topic section, but as you were speaking on behalf of one of the groups! hahah too funny. Ok, ty. Coachbricewilliams28 (talk) 18:01, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your message. In order that I can edit this page appropriately, I would be grateful for a bit more clarity on the changes required. Thank you. Lseio (talk) 14:24, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Assistance with March Networks draft submitted to AfC?

Hello, Chrissy -

Thanks very much for reviewing my proposed March Networks article; I appreciate it. Since the submission has been declined, I was wondering if you'd be open to providing me with some recommendations on how to improve it so that it better meets NPOV and other requirements? I'd love the opportunity to pick your brain about how to make sure we're stringently following the MOS.

Also, because I want to make sure I'm completely transparent about things, you can see my COI declaration on my user page regarding this submission.

Hey! Thanks for reviewing. Could I get a little help with my references? What criteria is not fulfilled? What is fulfilled with the current sources? Thank You!

Pharmacy Management System reappears

Software programs for pharmacy workflow management appears to be nearly the same content as Draft:Pharmacy management system, recreated under a new name. David notMD (talk) 00:53, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

I shortened it by half, but IMO still an iffy article.David notMD (talk) 14:37, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Another editor changed name of Software.... to Pharmacy management system, and then left a note at the Draft under that name - still out there - that the article now exists in the shortened form, so the draft should not be reviewed again. David notMD (talk) 17:17, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

why

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Óláfs_saga_Tryggvasonar&type=revision&diff=859395178&oldid=859389912

Why have you reverted this edit - the reasons for the changes are well explained in the edit history.

All the links where to different compilations of the same work. This work needs an article on it.5.198.10.236 (talk) 01:22, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Because it's a disambiguation page and is useful. Write a separate article and leave the DAB. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 01:23, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

The name of the article is/ would be Óláfs saga Tryggvasonar - no disambiguation is really needed because they are all versions of the same work .. there is only one topic.

Draft:$uicideboy$

Hello Chrissymad,

Will you please read the discussion on my talk page, and take another look? I believe that developments in the past two years means that this duo, while not yet notable in 2016, is now notable in late 2018. Please reconsider. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:22, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

I did and I see no actual change from the several other times, as I've detailed on the talk page of the draft. The Billboard source was present in the prior AFD/MFD and iTunes charts do not count. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 02:29, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

And the rest are interviews, otherwise unreliable or generally worthless for determining notability (like itunescharts.com). CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 02:32, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Cullen328 You're also more than welcome to move it to main space if you feel it's appropriate but the sources provided by the person on your talk page, as i've pointed out do not meet the threshold of establishing notability in the slightest. Interviews, a generic website link, sources that were already present in the prior AFD'd article etc...CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 02:37, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

NPR Newsletter No.13 18 September 2018

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

The New Page Feed currently has 2700 unreviewed articles, up from just 500 at the start of July. For a while we were falling behind by an average of about 40 articles per day, but we have stabilised more recently. Please review some articles from the back of the queue if you can (Sort by: 'Oldest' at Special:NewPagesFeed), as we are very close to having articles older than one month.

Project news

• The New Page Feed now has a new "Articles for Creation" option which will show drafts instead of articles in the feed, this shouldn't impact NPP activities and is part of the WMF's AfC Improvement Project.

As part of this project, the feed will have some larger updates to functionality next month. Specifically, ORES predictions will be built in, which will automatically flag articles for potential issues such as vandalism or spam. Copyright violation detection will also be added to the new page feed. See the projects's talk page for more info.

• There are a number of coordination tasks for New Page Patrol that could use some help from experienced reviewers. See Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Coordination#Coordinator tasks for more info to see if you can help out.

Other

• A new summary page of reliable sources has been created; Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources/Perennial sources, which summarizes existing RfCs or RSN discussions about regularly used sources.

Moving to Draft and Page Mover

• Some unsuitable new articles can be best reviewed by moving them to the draft space, but reviewers need to do this carefully and sparingly. It is most useful for topics that look like they might have promise, but where the article as written would be unlikely to survive AfD. If the article can be easily fixed, or if the only issue is a lack of sourcing that is easily accessible, tagging or adding sources yourself is preferable. If sources do not appear to be available and the topic does not appear to be notable, tagging for deletion is preferable (PROD/AfD/CSD as appropriate). See additional guidance at WP:DRAFTIFY.
• If the user moves the draft back to mainspace, or recreates it in mainspace, please do not re-draftify the article (although swapping it to maintain the page history may be advisable in the case of copy-paste moves). AfC is optional except for editors with a clear conflict of interest.
• Articles that have been created in contravention of our paid-editing-requirements or written from a blatant NPOV perspective, or by authors with a clear COI might also be draftified at discretion.
• The best tool for draftification is User:Evad37/MoveToDraft.js^(info). Kindly adapt the text in the dialogue-pop-up as necessary (the default can also be changed like this). Note that if you do not have the Page Mover userright, the redirect from main will be automatically tagged as CSD R2, but in some cases it might be better to make this a redirect to a different page instead.
• The Page Mover userright can be useful for New Page Reviewers; occasionally page swapping is needed during NPR activities, and it helps avoid excessive R2 nominations which must be processed by admins. Note that the Page Mover userright has higher requirements than the NPR userright, and is generally given to users active at Requested Moves. Only reviewers who are very experienced and are also very active reviewers are likely to be granted it solely for NPP activities.

List of other useful scripts for New Page Reviewing

Twinkle provides a lot of the same functionality as the page curation tools, and some reviewers prefer to use the Twinkle tools for some/all tasks. It can be activated simply in the gadgets section of 'preferences'. There are also a lot of options available at the Twinkle preferences panel after you install the gadget. In terms of other gadgets for NPR, HotCat is worth turning on. It allows you to easily add, remove, and change categories on a page, with name suggestions. MoreMenu also adds a bunch of very useful links for diagnosing and fixing page issues. User:Equazcion/ScriptInstaller.js(info): Installing scripts doesn't have to be complicated. Go to your common.js and copy importScript( 'User:Equazcion/ScriptInstaller.js' ); into an empty line, now you can install all other scripts with the click of a button from the script page! (Note you need to be at the ".js" page for the script for the install button to appear, not the information page) User:TheJosh/Scripts/NewPagePatrol.js(info): Creates a scrolling new pages list at the left side of the page. You can change the number of pages shown by adding the following to the next line on your common.js page (immediately after the line importing this script): npp_num_pages=20; (Recommended 20, but you can use any number from 1 to 50). User:Primefac/revdel.js(info): Is requesting revdel complicated and time consuming? This script helps simplify the process. Just have the Copyvio source URL and go to the history page and collect your diff IDs and you can drop them into the script Popups and it will create a revdel request for you. User:Lourdes/PageCuration.js(info): Creates a "Page Curation" link to Special:NewPagesFeed up near your sandbox link. User:Writ Keeper/Scripts/deletionFinder.js: Creates links next to the title of each page which show up if it has been previously deleted or nominated for deletion. User:Evad37/rater.js(info): A fantastic tool for adding WikiProject templates to article talk pages. If you add: rater_autostartNamespaces = 0; to the next line on your common.js, the prompt will pop up automatically if a page has no Wikiproject templates on the talk page (note: this can be a bit annoying if you review redirects or dab pages commonly).
