Draft: Paul J. Tesar

November 22, 2019: Hi AngusWOOF, thank you for your helpful feedback for construction of this draft. The changes have been made and references improved to include news articles rather than primary citations. Please let me know if it now fits Wikipedia standards. Thank you-

Draft: BAITSSS

Hi AngusWOOF,

Your suggestions had been incorporated in this draft, please let me know if it had been improved or anything needs to be done.

Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.130.88.169 (talk • contribs)

129.130.88.169, how does "Estimating Water use by Vegetation is crucial for conserving water, managing Irrigation, and acquiring Water right information of individuals for Legal purpose. Farmers need these information to apply accurate Water in Crop for optimum Crop yield...." introduce what the BAITSSS is? It should start with the second paragraph and be more concise. It needs a history of the term / project. Who created it? How was it funded? How was it rolled out? Is it still active? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:55, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Great, I have incorporated your various suggestions. I would appreciate if you review again.

Not sure about history and rolled out, this draft is based on the fact what is found in the web. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.130.88.169 (talk) 18:37, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

129.130.88.169, the article already has a bit of the history and origins in the lead paragraph. It just needs to be explained in better detail in a History section. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:06, 18 October 2019 (UTC)

Added small section of history as per found in web. Can you please let me know? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.130.88.169 (talk) 15:24, 19 October 2019 (UTC)

Does anyone know what is the problem in this draft, I have updated some? — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 14:49, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

IDKANS, it still looks overly technical like a journal report, see WP:NOTJOURNAL. It doesn't need to be a status update or a mirror of a website. I'm also concerned if any of the editors on this are connected to the program or the research group. If so, they should declare WP:COI. It's still in the submission queue, so other AFC reviewers can take a look from a fresh perspective. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:14, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Not sure about all these micro details, but for me, it looks a nice model description and better than many models described in the wiki. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 15:16, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Seems you have asked many things to add ?? — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 15:22, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

There is also promotional verbiage in the lead: "The estimation of water use by vegetation is crucial for conserving water, managing Irrigation, acquiring water right information, and crop production.[3][12] Farmers need these information for accurately applying water to crops for optimum yield." Other lines / bullet points read like they are advocating the advantages or using this model over others. This needs to be rewritten neutrally. Also it should be able to have some criticism from others in the scientific community. See WP:PROUD AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:25, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

I don't think so, it seems accurate statement to me. "The estimation of water use by vegetation is crucial for conserving water, managing Irrigation, acquiring water right information, and crop production", there might many other literature to support that.

Regarding the bullet, I think, they are trying to make some distinctions between other models, at least it is from the published manuscripts, not sure about the scientific community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 15:34, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Removed the bullets. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 15:40, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

IDKANS, I just realized the formatting of some other threads got mixed up with the BAITSSS one. Anyway, my point about the "estimation is crucial" phrase, and others like it, is that it carries a promotional advocacy tone. It's like saying "Clean drinking water is good for your health." See WP:NPOV. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:16, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Edited as per your points. Not sure, what can be done to make better. Overall, it seems widely published and mentioned in various places. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 17:50, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

IDKANS, another option is to put those opinionated statements as quotes from one of the researchers or reviewing writers, like: Ramesh said that "the estimation of water use by vegetation is crucial for conserving water, managing Irrigation, acquiring water right information, and crop production." (provided he actually said that) AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:38, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

I think, removal of that line is safer. Thanks, Overall good. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 19:09, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Not sure what is that cite error referring. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 19:27, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Great, anything needs to be done on this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 20:21, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Seems, this draft is pending for year, not sure, the expectations of reviewers. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 06:11, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

I have done some minor edits and updated some references, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Articles_for_creation/tables is showing prediction vandalism, any idea. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 06:02, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

IDKANS, how is it pending for a year when the last feedback was last month? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:26, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

IDKANS, the more it can be reduced to its basic explanation of the project and its impact / applications, without too much technical detail, the more that would help. It also helps if there are WP:GNG sources on the project. Ones that are secondary external news sources that are independent of the subject. Can you list those up front in the comments section? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:28, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Can you please specify the section that needs to be reduced (do you think we need to reduce or delete the Approach Section or reduce and also the technical details in application sections??). Probably, I can try to reduce as per your guidelines/thoughts.

Secondary external news sources that are independent of the subject: (added in comment sections). My concern this draft was initiated in January, 2019,and some of the coverage may start disappearing in websites/news.

IDKANS, thanks, that looks good. Thanks for pointing out the citations from the other journals and the AAAS article. That helps. It might still be tagged for being overly technical, but I'll let the other editors figure that out. if you are concerned the websites/news sites are going offline, then you have those particular articles archived with Wayback. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:49, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Thank you, I would help to clean up and make neutral point of view, if someone gives some clear guidelines, anyway, thanks again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 18:03, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

IDKANS, so are you connected to the group in any way? Same university department or used their product in your research? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:03, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Evapotranspiration is common to many subjects (engineering, agriculture, agronomy, biology, hydrology), BAITSSS is different than others. I am interested/aware of these models. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IDKANS (talk • contribs) 20:16, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Suite and Sour (The Loud House)

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Overnight_Success_(The_Loud_House)&action=edit

This episode is sumbitted to the Wikipedia Encyclopedia. Why Suite and Sour was declined ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.92.102.241 (talk) 15:59, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

41.92.102.241, "Overnight Success" has a reception section that shows how the episode is separately notable for its LGBT themes and coverage. "Suite and Sour" doesn't show anything to stand out from the list. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:02, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

Do I need a reception in this draft for it's inclusion in Wikipedia ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.92.102.241 (talk) 16:11, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

Not just that, but it needs to show how this is separately notable from the list of episodes. A simple TV rating isn't enough. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:15, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

This rating can be incrusted in this draft ?

There is not reception in this page

I just want to insert this draft to Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.92.20.138 (talk) 17:14, 24 October 2019 (UTC)

41.92.20.138, as I stated, a simple TV rating isn't enough to show notability. Do not reference IMDb as a source. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:11, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

I added a reception. Do I need to add the website for this reception ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 197.253.214.57 (talk) 19:16, 26 October 2019 (UTC)

197.253.214.57, I suggest going to the current MFD and explaining why the article should be independently notable. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:20, 28 October 2019 (UTC)

Please note that this draft is now deleted per the results of the MFD. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:56, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Monte Warden Wikipedia page

Hi there - Could you or someone make very specific editing suggestions. I studied a number of Wikipedia pages for Texas musicians and used them as models in writing this page. The sections of information included for Monte Warden appear in the Wikipedia pages of other Texas musicians with decades-long careers like him, so I am a bit stumped.

For example, the page for George Strait was a model I used. Could you please take a look at the opening section of that? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Strait The tone of the language on that page is very similar -- one could say it's magazine style. So I worked to apply that same standard.

FYI, I am not being compensated for creating this page. I put a lot of research into it because Monte Warden is truly a notable musician, in the Austin, Texas music scene, and doesn't have a Wikipedia page. As his notable achievements go beyond The Wagoneers, they can't be contained on the band's page.

Would you be willing to redline the exact language that you believe needs to go? That would be super helpful. Thank you! Katherine — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kgregoratx (talk • contribs) 17:31, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

Kgregoratx, It's mainly the multiple name drops, like "look at all the people he knows". Also the lead sentence talking about multi award-winning (see WP:PEACOCK), and "A band leader and live performer “known for his animated stage presence” that comes out of advertising/promotional material. That said, there should be some good potential with articles from Billboard magazine that focus on Warden's solo career, band and albums. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:19, 28 October 2019 (UTC)

Okay, thanks, I deleted all the content that you suggested, including that quote from the newspaper. Cut the named associated artists, just kept a minimum to establish notability/credibility. Katherine — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kgregoratx (talk • contribs) 04:05, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

Kgregoratx, can you remove references to Discogs and also the one about the business office? The latter is a source that isn't accessible or verifiable. Also take a look at other musician articles to see how they are structured so you can redo the headers. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:57, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Everybody's Everything (album) Draft

Hi, pretty sure I've done all I can do here. The album isn't out and was just announced about 6 hours ago, so i'm not sure how I find reviews. I have provided reliable sources to prove notability of the album and artist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joey125a (talk • contribs) 20:57, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Let's wait for reviews then. Also you can add reliable sources describing the development and production of the album. Who put it together, why was it made, and so forth? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:11, 1 November 2019 (UTC)

Joey125a, it looks like it's in mainspace now, so you can add reviews when it's close to released and chartings later. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:55, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

New Page Review newsletter November 2019

Hello AngusWOOF,

This newsletter comes a little earlier than usual because the backlog is rising again and the holidays are coming very soon.

Getting the queue to 0

There are now 803 holders of the New Page Reviewer flag! Most of you requested the user right to be able to do something about the huge backlog but it's still roughly less than 10% doing 90% of the work. Now it's time for action.
Exactly one year ago there were 'only' 3,650 unreviewed articles, now we will soon be approaching 7,000 despite the growing number of requests for the NPR user right. If each reviewer soon does only 2 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by every reviewer doing only 1 review every 2 days - that's only a few minutes work on the bus on the way to the office or to class! Let's get this over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Want to join? Consider adding the NPP Pledge userbox.
Our next newsletter will announce the winners of some really cool awards.

Coordinator

Admin Barkeep49 has been officially invested as NPP/NPR coordinator by a unanimous consensus of the community. This is a complex role and he will need all the help he can get from other experienced reviewers.

This month's refresher course

Paid editing is still causing headaches for even our most experienced reviewers: This official Wikipedia article will be an eye-opener to anyone who joined Wikipedia or obtained the NPR right since 2015. See The Hallmarks to know exactly what to look for and take time to examine all the sources.

Tools

• It is now possible to select new pages by date range. This was requested by reviewers who want to patrol from the middle of the list.
• It is now also possible for accredited reviewers to put any article back into the New Pages Feed for re-review. The link is under 'Tools' in the side bar.

Reviewer Feedback

Would you like feedback on your reviews? Are you an experienced reviewer who can give feedback to other reviewers? If so there are two new feedback pilot programs. New Reviewer mentorship will match newer reviewers with an experienced reviewer with a new reviewer. The other program will be an occasional peer review cohort for moderate or experienced reviewers to give feedback to each other. The first cohort will launch November 13.

Second set of eyes

• Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work, especially while some routine tagging for deletion can still be carried out by non NPR holders and inexperienced users. Read about it at the Monitoring the system section in the tutorial. If you come across such editors doing good work, don't hesitate to encourage them to apply for NPR.
• Do be sure to have our talk page on your watchlist. There are often items that require reviewers' special attention, such as to watch out for pages by known socks or disruptive editors, technical issues and new developments, and of course to provide advice for other reviewers.

Arbitration Committee

The annual ArbCom election will be coming up soon. All eligible users will be invited to vote. While not directly concerned with NPR, Arbcom cases often lead back to notability and deletion issues and/or actions by holders of advanced user rights.

Community Wish list

There is to be no wish list for WMF encyclopedias this year. We thank Community Tech for their hard work addressing our long list of requirements which somewhat overwhelmed them last year, and we look forward to a successful completion.

Draft:Titiksha (Festival)

Hi, thanks for taking the time to check my article on Titiksha fest. It hurts to see it rejected but I hope you'll help me fix it. I wanted to ask if you can provide me with some example of reliable sources for which the article was rejected. I am looking to add the fest to the list of tech fests in India found here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Technical_festivals_in_India Local news which is working for the last 54 years should be pretty reliable I think. Considering the scale of the event, It's hard to find a national and international post about it but I still think considering it's biggest college event of the whole state of J&K and happens annually should be in Wikipedia with other technical fests. Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoaib Ahmed 00 (talk • contribs) 03:04, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Shoaib Ahmed 00, I suggest reading WP:NEVENT and look for those national and international newspapers that cover the event in detail. It's very rare when a school-specific event gets Wikipedia-level coverage. Usually those will redirect to the organization that is sponsoring the event or the school itself. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:55, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF, I see. Where I believe that it's not a big event compared to other events but it still is happening every year from the last 11 years. I think that makes it notable enough to be added on Wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizon_(festival) set a precedent that articles like that are allowed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shoaib Ahmed 00 (talk • contribs)

Shoaib Ahmed 00, then please find the news articles outside of the region that cover it. Otherwise it might be closer to WP:MILL like the local school festival. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:19, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF, Thanks for your help, I fixed it. Linguaddict (talk) 22:54, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Generation of filmography tables

What method have you been using for your conversions of filmographies to the table format that I described on the WP:A&M talk page? There are a few anime seiyuu articles that I would like to either learn to convert or direct to you, depending on your answer. — Goszei (talk) 23:33, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Goszei, it depends on how many entries need to be done. For the filmographies of folks who have a ton of references, I have this scheme in Excel where I paste in VADB results, rearrange columns, translate them into English, sort and then insert the format. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:38, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

I see, I think I will this leave this task to you and other editors in that case. If you are willing to share your Excel scheme, perhaps I could help out as well; either way, I've generated these two pageview lists as a proposed to-do list for future conversions: one for Category:Japanese voice actresses and one for Category:Japanese male voice actors. — Goszei (talk) 00:15, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

Goszei, you can go to WP:ANIME/BIO and there's a request list you can add the actors that you want me to try to construct a table for. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:21, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

Goszei, if you want to make it simpler, you can copy over a filmography table and a few entries such as that of Aya Hirano, then redo the other entries in the filmography to the same format. Don't worry about release dates if you don't know them, just leave them blank. You can also look up their entry on GamePlaza Haruka and then Google translate that entire table to get an idea what the works are. You could also look up their resume and just translate those. Usually those are the most notable entries. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:46, 4 November 2019 (UTC)

Declining my draft.

Hello, you declined my draft stating unless being in 1,2 or 3rd place that my article is not notable enough

but on wiki's guidelines a musical artist is relevant to have an article about them if they Have been a featured subject of a substantial broadcast segment across a national radio or TV network.

the person i wrote the article about has been on 3 major TV show's and also appeared in a feature film.

you gave me no help with my article just simply declined and made an offensive comment with your opinion on why you chose to decline it.

this person also has verification on social platforms but you simply choose to decline

Liz — Preceding unsigned comment added by GrantLizzie (talk • contribs) 14:07, 5 November 2019 (UTC)

GrantLizzie, substantial segment is more like a national news segment like in 60 Minutes, not in the context of the contest show. Social platforms are not reliable sources to show notability. You need external news sources that write up specifically about the person, but they can't be WP:ROUTINE coverage as typically given to sports athletes and contestant of the week.

Article Improved 'Yusuf Magaji Bichi'

Hello AngusWOOF,

I have improved my article 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Yusuf_Magaji_Bichi' as you made some corrections. Please, can you assist me and check it again.Ibnadambici (talk) 11:06, 7 November 2019 (UTC)

Ibnadambici, it still reads like a resume. Major parts of it need to be rewritten in prose. Readers don't need to know the exact occupational titles. The article needs more external news sources explaining what he has done that has made him notable, not just press release material that he now has a new position or is speaking on behalf of the organization.

Hi, thank you for reviewing my article quickly.

Thomas Nail

Thank you for your feedback on "Draft:Thomas Nail". The article has been rejected twice but no one has told me how to fix the issues. One comment suggests that academics need a "named chair" to be listed, which is clearly no the case for most entries. Another says I need reliable independent sources that are verifiable—but that was what I thought I just added with links to peer reviewed journals, etc. I am super confused. Other entries are way less supported than mine. Can you tell me specifically what I need to do here? Its all so mysterious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RyanHSanborn (talk • contribs) 02:40, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Also: I read the wiki instructions and its pretty clear that the article meets at least one of the academic criteria listed: "The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work – either several extremely highly cited scholarly publications or a substantial number of scholarly publications with significant citation rates. Reviews of the person's work, published in selective academic publications, can be considered together with ordinary citations here. Differences in typical citation and publication rates and in publication conventions between different academic disciplines should be taken into account.

I have linked to google scholar and academia.edu to verify this. Thomas Nail has a book, The Figure of the Migrant, cited 285 times (which is a lot for philosophy books). He also fulfills the other named criteria of "unique" contribution that can be verified by reading the linked book review of Theory of the Border- where the reviewer clearly states the original and unique contribution of a whole new conceptual framework. Check it out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RyanHSanborn (talk • contribs) 03:22, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Please read this: I am pasting here the explicit criteria on wikipedia for academic notability and precise how Thomas Nail satisfies this: WP:NACADEMICS: Academics meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable.

1. The person's research has had a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources.

"The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work – either several extremely highly cited scholarly publications or a substantial number of scholarly publications with significant citation rates. Reviews of the person's work, published in selective academic publications, can be considered together with ordinary citations here. Differences in typical citation and publication rates and in publication conventions between different academic disciplines should be taken into account. To count towards satisfying Criterion 1, citations need to occur in peer-reviewed scholarly publications such as journals or academic books. Publication and citation rates in humanities are generally lower than in sciences. Also, in sciences, most new original research is published in journals and conference proceedings whereas in humanities book publications tend to play a larger role (and are harder to count without access to offline libraries). The meaning of "substantial number of publications" and "high citation rates" is to be interpreted in line with the interpretations used by major research institutions in determining the qualifications for the awarding of tenure."

Here is how criteria number 1 is verified: a) follow the link "highly cited" to google scholar and see that there are several "highly cited" books and many well cited peer- reviewed articles. b) follow the academia.edu link at the bottom to see that Thomas Nail has over 4,000 followers with a quarter of a million downloads. c) when determining "highly cited" consider 1. that philosophy has much lower citation rates than the sciences, 2. that books are much more important that articles, and 3. that Thomas Nail is a tenured faculty, meaning that he has published enough to be considered to have made an impact in his field. d) view his CV on academia.edu to see the 10 books he has written and over 30 peer reviewed articles and major conferences and full range of interviews.

Let me know what you think

Please see WP:NACADEMIC and indicate how this professor meets any of the criteria there. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:14, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

In all fairness, the author did cite from WP:NACADEMICS, and did show how the professor met criteria 1. Utopes (talk) 02:27, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Is the referenced video of her performing on American Idol Season 13 not credible evidence of her being on the show?

Satellitemusic (talk) 19:28, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Satellitemusic, she might have been on the show in one of the early rounds, but didn't made top 16, and certainly isn't a finalist per WP:MUSICBIO. Are there other articles to show notability towards WP:MUSICBIO? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:32, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

Raoul Bhatt wiki

Is it possible I can get your help to rewrite the Raoul Bhatt Wikipedia article as I don’t know how? Tonystargazer (talk) 16:16, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

Tonystargazer, I suggest you try rewriting it without using any primary sources. No websites, social media, or press releases. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:20, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

Draft: ISA 315: Identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement through understanding the entity and its environment

Hello Angus,

Thanks for the feedback on my article, I'll work on improving the references, citations and context of the article before submitting it for the next review.

--Anthony Mutua (talk) 06:30, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Toriko split?

I think we might need a consensus regarding split of the Toriko manga and anime series into different aspects (i.e. a manga page, an anime page and an episode list). As it stands now, the List of Toriko episodes is essentially an anime series article; the production was originally added without a proper consensus and most of it will need to be moved to a separate article (in this case, Toriko (TV series)). I'll see what can be done. I've also contacted Nihonjoe (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) and Sergecross73 (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA) for their thoughts on the matter. Thoughts? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 08:03, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Sjones23, the original action from last month (October) was that the List of Toriko episodes was boldly renamed to Toriko (TV series), which I stopped and the result was the Request Move. That resulted in a month-long debate over whether the articles should follow WP:ANIME or WP:TV standards. During this period, the LoE article was reformatted to have the (TV series) sections with Production, Casting, Reception, Broadcast and other sections, but was reverted a few times in case the LoE was going to remain a separate article. The result by the admin was no consensus but that all parties are willing to try a standalone (TV series) article. So without having to reopen the entire box, I suggest that TV series be developed proper and to leave LoE alone. Maybe this can be attempted in a draft? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:16, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

@AngusWOOF: I see; I was quite busy with other things, so I missed the discussion. Given your thoughts on the matter, do you think we should consider restoring the article to the way it was before the situation happened as per WP:STATUSQUO? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 17:36, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Sjones23, I did fix up the LoE table structure and home media so that stuff should stay. But I think a draft would be a good idea as per Draft:School Rumble (TV series) AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:42, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

@AngusWOOF: My original draft was located at User:Sjones23/List of Toriko episodes (check the history page for it; it's a redirect now), but it was way back in 2011 when I spun it off from the main series article. Do you think we should restore the DVD cover and use the One Piece (season 5) (An FL) and the Naruto episode FLs as models to make it a potential FL? Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 17:44, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Sjones23, you can check with the others on the talk page for LoE. If there's enough material to create (TV series) then it would be put in the draft, and the LoE can then stay more like the LoE. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:52, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Oh, and as a heads up, the WP:VPM discussion was closed with the result being that the project is "Interconnected, not subordinate". Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 18:04, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Sjones23, regarding the DVD covers, you and the others are good at ensuring those aren't having issues with NFCC or Commons, so I'll support whatever you want to place for those. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:07, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Gotcha. Like I said, I think we should restore the DVD cover for the article once the dispute has been worked out. I think everyone involved should review WP:BATTLEGROUND and WP:OWN, as noted in Anomie's closing statement regarding WP:ANIME. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 18:18, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

I'm creating a new draft at User:Sjones23/Toriko (TV series) and have restored the LoE to the WP:STATUSQUO version for now. Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 20:34, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Section break

Since the previous image was deleted as per this discussion, do you think we should restore it if it's absolutely necessary or change it to a promotional poster per WP:NFCC#8? I felt that it wasn't a decoration for the episode list like in some featured lists such as One Piece (season 5). Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 20:26, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

  • Draft:The Nosferatu (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Vladjanicek66 (talk) 13:57, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Please can you explain the process to me as I have never created a Wikipedia page before and the conventions totally lose me.

1. I accept we do not have many citations yet, its early stages. Is there a way to hold this page from deletion until we can provide these?

2. While I understand you are treating this as a "spinoff band", technically this is incorrect as I never left the original band. As with many acts, one member used the band name without authorisation and traded under this name. This current band comprises most of the original lineup. The only reason we are called "The Nosferatu" and not "Nosferatu" is to protect ourselves from malicious legal nonsense and draw a line under matters.

3. If I copy and paste this article into a Sandbox, can I later republish if I can add more citations?

Vladjanicek66 (talk) 13:57, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Vladjanicek66, here's my reply:

• 1) You can continue to develop the draft where it is or move it to your sandbox. If nothing's been done on the draft for six months, then it might be deleted, but those can be easily recovered.
• 2) As for the band naming, that's rather confusing and depends on who thinks they are the original band and which is a spinoff. If both are claiming to be the original band, then it should be explained how there are now two separate incarnations of the band. Depending on how much can be written, this can mean a split article or perhaps be merged into the same original article.
• 3) You can copy it over to a sandbox, but it'll still be treated like a draft when you resubmit it.

Hope this helps clarify things. The second question you might want to ask around to other editors on how best to handle it, and if there are similar bands that were in this situation, you can copy their model. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:40, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Olivia Rodrigo

Where do you think we are with this one now? She has three bona fide "significant" roles released now, so she certainly technically meets WP:NACTOR. And the High School musical series is getting a lot of press... But when I look for profiles of just Rodrigo, I'm still not finding much. So... thoughts? (TIA!) --IJBall (contribs • talk) 22:38, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

IJBall, I see [1] which is echoed on TV Insider. That's got her birthplace but a paragraph-sized profile of what she's been in. I'm hoping there are some more detailed articles though. Here's a profile from See Jane / Geena Davis Institute [2] This article on AV Club is headlined how she and othe cast members are already stars [3] Lots of "meet the cast" articles from mainstream media though. Here's one from Columbus Dispatch about her career with Madison Hu on Bizaardvark [4] (same article at Fresno Bee [5] ) Here's one for Paved New World in J-14 magazine [6] and Variety [7] She in a ton of Just Jared Jr. blog articles, although that's not that good a source. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:52, 11 November 2019 (UTC)

I think one good profile piece or interview (from a decent-quality source) would get this one over the hump. But I've yet to find one that I really think does it (this LA Times piece makes some mention of her, but still not in enough detail)... However, it's possible with the Disney+ debut that somebody will write something substantive up on her over the next few weeks. I'll try to remember to keep an eye out... Thanks! --IJBall (contribs • talk) 04:13, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

Here's a press release that mentions her middle school. [8] and this interview talks about that she's Filipino [9] AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 08:18, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

Sweety High isn't the most RSP of sources but still worth an interview [10] Video interview with ET Canada [11] Popsugar cast interview [12] It looks like co-star Madison Hu has her own page. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 08:29, 12 November 2019 (UTC)

IJBall, I don't know if that interview article will come out; it might be too much to expect something like Lena Waithe's Vanity Fair cover article [13] for interview, but do you think there's enough based on the news media coverage on the High School Musical web series? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:19, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Even for someone at career level of Rodrigo, and "in depth" profile is not out of the question, IMO. For example, look at some of the non-inline sources at Draft:Cree Cicchino (another draft article I need to go over again at some point, and see if it's ready!) – Cicchino actually has 2 or 3 in-depth profiles (from 1 or 2 decent media sources), so it's not unreasonable to wait for Rodrigo to get similar coverage... As to your question, without a more in-depth profile, I'd say it's a "not yet", as the HSM coverage is mostly about the show, with Rodrigo only getting more peripheral focus in a lot of those articles. However, as soon as Rodrigo gets a decently in-depth profile or interview in a decent-ish quality WP:RS, then I'd say it's ready for mainspace. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 21:37, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Hey, please be careful with Starklinson and their edits (FTR, I'm not the only one who has problems with this editor) – IMO, this is an editor that is more interested in getting articles into Mainspace than they are with writing good quality articles that are well-sourced. The issues that you and I have discussed with this article remain, and Starklinson's changes really do nothing to address them – it's still missing a high-quality profile article or interview. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 02:52, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

least dangerous assumption (draft)

Hi AngusWOOF,

Thanks for your (very rapid) reviews of the page I'm proposing. The turnaround is appreciated.

This is an important page to get on Wikipedia. The phrase passes the criteria notability, verifiability, and reliability of sources. It's an important concept and it should be documented. I am at a bit of a loss to know where to go with it. As far as I can see I have set the context clearly (it's a pedagogic concept, particularly important in educational policy areas such as inclusion, and used in the fields of intellectual disability and communication disorder). I've described the contept in an encyclopic way (neutral, reling on reliable secondary sources), saying what it is and illustrating its meaning with an example. I'm not sure waht else I can do. Sure I could write more (way more) but some entries surely need to be terse and to the point (I don't see what a history of its coining adds to the understanding of what it is). And I've never seen a journal abstract looking like this draft (maybe in terms of length, but not in terms of content) - so I'm rally not sure in what way it looks like a journal abstract. So I'd very much appreciate figuring out how to get this moving in a way that enables a terse, informative entry to find its place in wikipedia.

I very much appreciate the review process and the shared agenda of ensuring that wikipedia stays what it is intended to be - so none of this is 'moaning'. [[Draft:The_least_dangerous_assumption]

Iorek100, here's a blog writeup where someone tries to explain LDA. [14] Note how it includes the origins of the phrase. "Over 30 years ago, special educator Anne McDonnellan coined this phrase by stating that in the “absence of conclusive data, educational decisions ought to be based on assumptions which, if incorrect, will have the least dangerous effect on the likelihood that students will be able to functional independently as adults.”" Here's another blog writeup [15] that mentions 1984 as origin. And one from Oilbean [16] So it should explain what LDA is and then how it's been popularized and widely used since then. But find a more magazine article like source or a reliable source website rather than random blogs. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:17, 13 November 2019 (UTC)

Please help in solving queries

Regarding Your suggestions to improve article of Tanya Maniktala and Shivam Kakar.

1. I will work on your requested point to become neutral i.e.I will imagine I dont know them and try writing a concise (precise) stuff what is required from reader's point of view. 2. I have used all web sources only to gather the information. Can you give a example where I have not. 3. Additionally you have mentioned, the tone of writing is self promotion based. My answer to that is : I will modify the draft again. I am a follower of these upcoming actors who are very much popular since last two-three years in India. People have asked queries about them at several platforms and They have that credibility now (not a year before perhaps!) to have a wikibiography page. They have bagged good projects (tanya is going to work for Mira Nair in International - BBC project and Shivam is going to work for a bollywood movie. So as far as India viewers are concerned they are well searched in internet" Data for Tanya - https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=IN&q=Tanya%20Maniktala Data for Shivam - https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&geo=IN&q=Shivam%20Kakar

Please suggest me, apart from promotional tone, what else I should rectify? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sagargenetic (talk • contribs) 07:14, 13 November 2019 (UTC)

Sagargenetic, the concern is that the article is full of promotional verbiage such as "She is set to take the British TV industry by storm". Please read stuff like WP:NOTADVERTISING and WP:NPOV and try to get rid of the promotional phrases, stuff that makes the actor look good. Replace it with more neutral phrases which explain what the actor has done. It's okay to say whether they starred in or co-starred in a particular show or film.

Regarding Draft:Tanya Maniktala, please indicate her significant roles in significant productions that would meet WP:ENT. These web series don't have any notability as it stands, so you need to have other shows. Do not write promotional stuff like name drops "which is being directed by famous Mira Nair" or stating opinions as facts like "is a rising star" We known Nair is famous. Also the web series should be briefly summarized, not that detailed because she didn't produce or create the series, just acted in it. If critics praise her work, then list the critics' names and publications represented and have it quoted. See Kari Wahlgren, a voice actor who has a ton of lead roles in cartoons, and how I briefly describe the role. It should also not be all positive tone, and open to criticism.

Same issues with Draft:Shivam Kakar. The web series isn't notable right now, so you have to find other shows that he stars in to meet WP:ENT. He should be in one of the lead roles there where external news articles from reliable sources can talk about his work or his career.

Hope this helps. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:15, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Anime biographies

Hello again. I have some concerns here. On some articles, Starbeam2 (talk · contribs), a relatively new user, has been using BTVA as a source when the user reformatted the tables in the Debora Rabbai, Michele Knotz and Veronica Taylor articles, despite most of them not including checkmarks. I've already notified them about BTVA here. I think we might need to use some resumes for those articles and probably help cleanup the Veronica Taylor and Michele Knotz articles (the former article only uses BTVA as a source for the voice credits, without resumes or other sources like CrystalAcids.com), using the Mike Pollock article as a model. Can you please let me know what your thoughts are about this and see if the user needs help? Thanks, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 10:07, 13 November 2019 (UTC)

Lord Sjones23, if they aren't checkmarked in BTVA then they can't be referencing BTVA, and I would remove those entries or comment them out for now. Also Starbeam2 should not rowspan the reference column like that per MOS:ACCESS. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:07, 14 November 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion

Hi AngusWoof

Could you give me some advice about the deletion of a draft article? I can't find a reference to which article it was. And I guess it's been deleted now.

This would help me to do better in future.

Was it about Spac Nation? I added citations from two national newspapers, Huffington Post, and one local newspaper; and that seemed to meet Wikipedia's guidelines. But maybe I'm wrong?

I'd value any thoughts you might have.

Thanks Sadgrove (talk) 18:27, 17 November 2019 (UTC)

Sadgrove, Huffington Post can only be used if the editor is actually part of the Huffington Post staff, and not a contributor. See WP:RSP on what sources can be used. Same with Forbes. Do not use Forbes contributors. There was a draft for Spac Nation but it was speedy deleted because it was an attack page. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:17, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Draft: Injury Reserve

Hi AngusWOOF

Thanks for looking at and reviewing my article on Injury Reserve's self titled album so quickly after I submitted it.

You mentioned that I should add more in the critical reception section, which I did. However, you also mentioned that I should put where it charted. As far as I know, the album didn't chart anywhere, as it doesn't show up on Billboard's website (they also track the non-US charts). I believe that the album is still noteworthy and deserves an article though.

If you think it's okay for me to submit the article anyway, then I'll do that. If otherwise, let me know and I'll see if I can fix the problem.

- Krimzonmania7078

Krimzonmania7078, it needs the reviews and the charting in order to meet WP:NALBUM. Please review the criteria there and indicate how the article would meet that. If it didn't chart, it needs critical reception from reviewers of reputable music websites. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:18, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF, I've had a look at the WP:NALBUM criteria and it would definitely meet 1. (it has been covered by multiple reputable music websites). According to WP:NALBUM it only needs to meet one of the criteria to be noteworthy.

Krimzonmania7078, you can resubmit that, and indicate that it would meet so. I've cleaned up the sourcing a bit to include the authors. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:38, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Krimzonmania7078, please ensure that the critics reviewing the album are respectable journalists and not the random "contributors" of the Huffpost/Forbes kind that post their own reviews without editorial oversight. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:30, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Jess Dyce

Hi AngusWOOF I'm currently trying to build a new page for Jess Dyce and have submitted two versions. The first was a fumbled attempt at trying to create a page but the second one is the one that I feel is a little better. The one that I would like published is;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Jess_Dyce_2

I understand that there is some problems with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Jess_Dyce_2 but did not know what to do to improve it. Once this page is OK I would like to delete the first version (Jess Dyce)

Thanks Jennie — Preceding unsigned comment added by UONLTL (talk • contribs) 00:22, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Jennie, can you edit on Draft:Jess Dyce version? I deleted the (2) version and redirected the content to that one. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:32, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

TOMMY ROBERTS

Mr. Woof I am new to Wikipedia. If you could help me in any way to better this submission it would be greatly appreciated. Thank You, Monmouth1946 (talk) 16:40, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

Monmouth1946, it looks like the verbiage was copied from some other biography, so that needs to be rewritten, otherwise it is a copyright violation. Also if there are better attributions to online media newspapers or books, that would help show whether the person is notable. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:06, 19 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF, I'm new to Wiki. How is this different than the iPhone page that promotes one product and company? I'm using other products as a guideline but struggling with these seemingly arbitrary decisions as to what is and isn't a promotion. Creating up a p[age that defines a significant product and how it helps rescue pets doesn't seem like "blatant advertising" to me. I reference Microsoft Windows and Apple's iPhone as examples. (talk) 13:53, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Ezbsg (talk) 14:02, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Ezbsg see WP:NPOV. It should describe the product or company in a neutral way and not read like verbiage copied from their website. See if you can write the article without using any of its websites, press releases, or social media. Also if you are connected to the company or its people in any way, you need to disclose conflict of interest WP:COI and it would be better that someone else write about the product. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 14:46, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF I've read NPOV and understand its stradegy. Once again I reference iPhone which has links to Apple's web site and describes a single product and talks about nothing but the iPhone. I don't see the difference between that page and what I am trying to create. (User talk:Ezbsg) 14:56, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Ezbsg It should only have a single external link to the company / product at the bottom. The rest of the info can be constructed from secondary source news articles that write about the subject. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:04, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF Once again I reference Apple's pages which do not follow your guidance. Why is it acceptable to have many links there but not acceptable to have a couple on what I am contributing. There appears to be a huge gap in in consistency as to what is acceptable and what is not. (User talk:EzBsg) 15:12, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Ezbsg, if you look at the iphone articles like iPhone 6S, most of the references are not coming from Apple. There are a few places where they do, like specs and technical information that can't be garnered by external news sources. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:18, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Ezbsg, I would suggest trying to dig up information on Rabies Reader using sources that are not connected to the product or company. Get some newspaper or magazine reviews on it. See WP:WBA on the sections on impartial tone. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:01, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF, Understood. It seems for new services or products that don't have much maturity that could be a stumbling block for creating an article. (talk) 20:08, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

Draft:Michael Cammarata

Hi,

I have edited the draft of Draft:Michael Cammarata by incorporating your suggestions. I have also filtered out reference and have only included the ones which were neutral and detailed. Reference number 8 - NASDAQ, I am not totally sure about, if you want I can remove that. Please let me know if this is OK or if you have any other improvement points. Thanking you. 103.27.231.148 (talk) 15:14, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF - I wanted to check if you have any views on the Draft:Michael Cammarata. Kindly let me know if you need any other modifications. Thanking you.103.27.231.247 (talk) 16:31, 22 November 2019 (UTC)

About Draft:Markov constant (Diophantine approximation)

Thanks for informing me of the problems of my draft article. There are a few things I would like to ask as a maths pro (my username translates to "Lord of Math"):

• Firstly, the draft I wrote was intended for mathematicians, the object in question itself is intrinsically technical and laypeople is unlikely to come across this term from normal math books. So do I still need to provide (at least some) explanation for some terms? Because I wrote this draft based on the style of Lagrange number.
• Besides, Markov number, Markov constant and Markov spectrum are actually different types of things - a sequence of integers, a function on numbers and a set of real numbers respectively - so I think it is quite easy to distinguish between the three. Also, I already put the term "Diophantine approximation" on the title, and the other two items are also unrelated to Diophantine approximation. So by your comment "Please indicate how this is different from Markov number...", how do I proceed?
• Finally, do you know an admin who excels in math? I would like to know one.

Thanks. 數神 (talk) 01:46, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

數神, the reason I asked why they were different was because the article started talking about Markov numbers in bold. I would check the history of the related articles and see who has been editing it the most and is still active. They can help you from there. As far as AFC reviewing, we need to know how the term is notable so we need external news sources, journals, or papers that discuss it and that are not coming from the originating research group. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:41, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF Okay, I guess that was a typo; I am also not sure if the sources I cited were sufficient and high-quality. 數神 (talk) 03:22, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

See WP:IRS and WP:GNG for reliable sources. But like I said, we need sources that discuss the use the term that aren't from the person or group who might have coined the term. Markov chain and Markov process are well known in the community. I just don't know about the constant. There's only one paper so far from E Pelantová that makes use of the term and not much else. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 04:48, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

AngusWOOF Okay, Markov Chain is actually unrelated to Markov constant - they are, in fact, different concepts. As I said before, this new item is related to "Diophantine approximation", and that is not related to Markov chains/processes. Plus, the books that I cited also include the use of the term. Anyway, the amount of available scholarly articles is (slightly) limited, and authors sometimes name this same item differently. Reading through WP:N, I suppose this subject is notable enough. 數神 (talk) 05:18, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

KKCG declined / Karel Komarek review pending

Hi AngusWOOF, thanks for the explanation of KKCG declined, I will prepare more relialible sources for KKCG article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:KKCG

I have another question, I sent "Karel Komarek" for review at 8th August, but the article is still pending for review (the first information was 6 weeks, now it is 4 month).

Is there any possibility to find out in what order is this article? Because this trend shows that article would be never published:)

Thank you so much, Marthy007 (talk) 12:44, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

Marthy007, you can look at WP:AFC. Articles can be reviewed in any order. Some AFC reviewers like to tackle the really old submissions, and others the really new ones. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:37, 21 November 2019 (UTC)

Regarding the image restoration for the List of Toriko episodes

Hello again. I have a concern about restoring the previous image to the List of Toriko episodes. Since it was deleted as per this discussion, should we restore it, take it to WP:Deletion review or replace it with a promotional poster for now?
