Cellemetry Data Services - Please review changes that were suggested

I believe I made the changes as you suggested and added the link to three references. The last review was March 17th. Can you please let me know if there is anything else standing in the way of getting this published?

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

CSYguy, the intro reads like it's going to be some essay, and should be rewritten to just present what it is. Is it a service? A company? A technology? Please see MOS:LEAD AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:55, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

CSYguy, it looks like the article has been approved and updated. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:01, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Manjappada Kerala Blasters FC

I have submitted several time for approval. but you declined, can you help us to improve the article. there are other articles example West Block Blues. they are the fan club of Bengaluru FC But they dont have enough content in their article. How they got approval.KBFCmaneesh (talk) 05:56, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

KBFCmaneesh, you need more external news sources independent of the subject to show notability for the organization. See WP:ORGCRIT and WP:GNG. And please do not keep resubmiting after every little tweak until you have strong enough sources. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:43, 13 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As the submitter has been banned, this does not need further discussion, but others not associated with the submitter can continue drafting on this. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:11, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft rereview

I have taken up responsibility for this draft and have drastically rewritten and filled in many missing citations. [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by UseTheWiki (talk • contribs) 06:55, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

UseTheWiki, so why are you still referencing IMDb and other not so reliable sources? How does this person meets WP:MUSICBIO? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 09:26, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AngusWOOF

IMDb is allowed as a citation as long as it is not part of the user generated review content. The IMDb editor reviewed content such as cast lists are considered reliable.

The subject of the article is mentioned in more than one, nontrivial, independent, and reliable sources. UseTheWiki (talk) 16:16, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

UseTheWiki, no, IMDb cast listings are user-generated and are NOT reliable. Only the WGA credits are. See WP:CITEIMDB AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:25, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

UseTheWiki, the sources needs to be checked to see if they are random blogs or actual notable reliable sources. They should also not be promotional and not tied to the subject / interviews AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:26, 15 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AngusWOOF Sorry, I misunderstood the IMDb accepted uses. Also now that you pointed that out, I only see two reliable sources, and the subject needs multiple more. Thanks for the feedback! UseTheWiki (talk) 02:37, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Move fast and break things dab

I reverted this as the quote is not mentioned in Zuckerberg's article per MOS:DABMENTION AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:44, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Will you implement any alternative constructive idea so as not to imply to the user that this sentence originated on the cover of Jonathan Taplin's book?--Reseletti (talk) 20:01, 11 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You could add something in Zuckerberg's article about it, or mention in Taplin's article that it originated from Zuckerberg's catchphrase. It would still redirect to the book though, but at least a hatnote would not require the dabmention. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 12:48, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"You could" :-(

I think your revert is destructive.--Reseletti (talk) 11:27, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

It's sad that you need to guard your contributions on Wikipedia from people who just revert edits because of mere formal mistakes rather than correcting themselves. What if people didn't check back on all their contributions to see if anyone tries to force them to learn the intricacies of Wikipedia rules and try again?--Reseletti (talk) 11:44, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reseletti, I've redirected this to Facebook as a motto, and created Move Fast and Break Things (book) for Jonathan Taplin' s book. If you want to make it a hatnote, you're welcome to, but I think this would suffice. It doesn't need to be a disambiguation, as it is only two items per WP:TWODABS and again, because the motto is not explicitly mentioned in the article. Per MOS:DABMENTION, neither Zuckerberg's article or Facebook's article even mentions this motto, so disambiguation is not needed. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:09, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Reseletti, I started a discussion at Wikipedia_talk:Manual_of_Style/Disambiguation_pages#Move_fast_and_break_things_motto AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:33, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please review my draft.

Hi AngusWOOF. I submitted an article for Phillip Ahn M.D. and i have now edited the draft with more information and references. I am confused why the original comment "seemss like one credit in a videogame is not enough" because I did prior research before submitting and Daniel Pesina has a Wikipedia page and he also is also only known for Mortal Kombat II. I have linked more references and Ahn's photos are even on WikiMedia Commons already.

I am confused how to resubmit an article for review. My apologies if I am doing it incorrectly.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Titusthecat (talk • contribs) 11:15, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Titusthecat, if you think Pesina is not notable even with the news aticles given, then you can nominate that article for deletion or tag notability on it. WP:OTHERSTUFF Otherwise, I would see if there are any more external news sources to get Ahn's article to be notable. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 12:50, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Titusthecat, by the way, I moved the article to Draft:Phillip Ahn (martial artist) as his notability is as a martial artist / entertainer and not as a doctor, unless he's notable as both, but that would require more news articles. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:55, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin Tod page

Hi,

You were helping me get the Benjamin Tod page. No rush of course, but you hadn't updated it after the last re-submission. If you're busy, I understand.... if you're wanting anything from me on it, please let me know so I can address the issues. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vjarizpe (talk • contribs) 18:56, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, if it's in the AFC queue again, any of the other AFC reviewers can check it. I would continue to look for external news articles that significantly cover Tod. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:56, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, the article is in mainspace now. Congrats, and happy editing. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:02, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, please disclose your conflict of interest WP:COI for Tod's page. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:07, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thanks for publishing the page. I did see that there was the conflict of interest post. Other than being a fan of the artist, and thinking they deserve a page, I in no way was paid or received anything from the artist, or anyone else associated with them. Is it a conflict of interest to like an artist and create a page? I’m not sure what kind of proof of non payment you need, but I’ll disclose anything you’d like. I am proud of this accomplishment. vjarizpe (talk) 23:00, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I do moderate fan page on FB started by another fan, but that is not connected with the band, it’s independent. My business is photographing apartment buildings and high rises. I can provide you or anyone at Wikipedia with a cpa certified letter stating I have received no payments from the band. Us fans just want to help spread the word of great artists that don’t have “Label” support. I wanted to work on a couple others soon, but I do want to know it’s ok. I’m not trying to break rules here. Please advise. vjarizpe (talk) 23:27, 26 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, thanks for clarifying that you weren't paid. Are you connected to the subject in the non-paid way (acquaintances/friends of the band and/or its members/crew) or indirect payment (tickets, merch)? If they're influencing you in any of the content or disclosing other information, then it may still be a COI. Same story if you are connected in any way to Gems on VHS, label, etc. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:03, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, the issue is that you've created content toward his official site, even if it's to set up their Internet presence. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:46, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I’ve been to 5 shows this year and met them selling merch after the show, but they aren’t friends or acquaintances, and I have not received any tickets or merch. I don’t have a direct line to the band. GEMS on VHS has a Patreon page, and I do donate to them to support them. They’ve responded to posts on Instagram and FB before, but that’s the extent of my relationship. I’ve been trying to clean up the page since I pulled all those “band” sources and have been going back through the copy to make sure there wasn’t any content that was left from them. I also found a new article published yesterday and have been going through it to see if there’s anything I can add back in. Also, all the Gems sources were pulled prior to your approval of the page since you labeled them not credible. I do appreciate your due diligence, and do want to make sure I’m following the rules..... as a side note, should I not create a page for GEMS since I donate to them? I was thinking about it. vjarizpe (talk) 00:50, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, you have an Instagram message that says you worked on developing Tod's official website. As for Gems, that's borderline, depends on whether you're a big enough sponsor; seems like it could be the case given all the shoutouts on their youtube videos / social media. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:07, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Benjamin Tod used a moving photo I created, from an existing photo, of him on his homepage, and I was/am pretty proud. I was not paid by the band. I donate to Gems at a tier that makes me a contributor. These people aren’t my friends, I'm just a huge fan who wanted to try to do something good for people who don't have a lot of money, and are trying to make it. I’m new to this so I appreciate your help. If my writing is biased, if I cited sources that are not valid, or left any ounce of opinion, please let me know. I’m trying to learn, so thanks for continuing the conversation. I do want to publish more in the future so all this helps. vjarizpe (talk) 03:28, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I get it. please check any info I posted, everything is from qualified sources. Nothing is meant to advertise, or promote. He meets the qualifications for a page. If I shouldn’t add to it anymore or edit, understood. If I shouldn’t create pages for artists I’m a huge fan of, ok. vjarizpe (talk) 14:08, 27 September 2019 (UTC vjarizpe (talk) 14:10, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Vjarizpe, I think you're gotten the hang of what verbiage would be promotional / biased vs. neutral, and same with the sources. That helped a lot in getting it out of the draft world. As for Gems, think of it like a political party or organization. Donating at some small flash in the pan level or having a bit of stock in the company doesn't really show a COI, but being on staff, even if volunteer, would be, and doing it to improve your standing among the organization or band would be. Also, editors should not be using Wikipedia to promote their subject, but report on them, good and bad (see WP:PROUD, yes, even our favorite people can have major issues and criticism). It's okay to be big fans of the article subjects, just have to keep neutral about it when explaining that to others. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:55, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. Thanks for all your guidance. I’ll stay away from doing Gems, that makes sense. vjarizpe (talk) 17:00, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Article Sacha Nemcov

Hello AngusWoof, I just wanted to let you know that a user User:SimonPenil is reviewing AFC submissions. It's not that it bothers me but his actions seem suspicious see. And the user seems to have a less than 10 days old account. please see the article Sacha Nemcov, I thought it needs to go through AFC. AbhiMukh97^{(Speak)(Contribs)} 04:56, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

After a user's account has aged for a while or has acquired a number of edits, they can construct articles directly in mainspace. It will then have to be reviewed by New Pages Feed. However, you can tag notability if the article isn't really notable. Or call for a PROD or AFD. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:52, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the suggestion. I think I should let it be there, and see which direction it goes. The sources are independent, but I think it lacks notability. AbhiMukh97(alt) (talk) 15:07, 18 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Diagonal split color box

I made the template to use it in "traffic sign recognition":

P/D F/D M/D M/C — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.162.112.133 (talk) 19:19, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can you show me the discussion of where that's been recognized as a good idea by Wikipedia:Accessibility project? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:31, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The colors in the traffic sign recognition page are a visual aid. The information is encoded by the letter. 217.162.112.133 (talk) 21:23, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is just the combination of "Template:Diagonal split header" and "Template:Color box" 217.162.112.133 (talk) 21:32, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Peer Community In Draft

Hello Angus, thanks for reviewing my Draft:Peer_Community_in. I added further and more authoritative references (links to official documents of the CNRS recognizing the organization, articles on the official page of the University of Oxford, etc.) Natematic (talk) 09:32, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Mick Lauer

You said that they only have one Yu Gi Oh role, did you read all of the credits? He is currently on a Nickelodeon series for lego and is in at least 10 MAJOR video games... I'm just confused how you distilled all those credits down to one role, please advise.

Also, he meets all of the following -

Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions. Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following. Has made unique, prolific or innovative contributions to a field of entertainment.

Even if there weren't video games (entertainment) and tv shows, youtube is also considered 'entertainment' now.

IMDB page (which is linked on the page, and more annotations are being added) Ellyrox (talk) 16:36, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ellyrox, those aren't significant roles. He's not in the main cast, only guest roles. Doing Additional Voices and minor roles that don't even show up on Behind The Voice Actors database is not helping show notability. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:22, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This is a main cast role. This is a starring role. This is a major character, he's in 146 episodes. He has a podcast that has a 'cult' following, so much so that many fans have tattoos referencing it.

"Has a large fan base or a significant "cult" following."

contemporaries of his have pages, most notably Jon Jafari and Arin Hanson. If I were to change the heading of the article to RicePirate would that make a difference?

There's 74 entries on imdb and that's not including 58 podcast episodes, or unlisted projects.

I'm just super confused here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ellyrox (talk • contribs) 17:37, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ellyrox, IMDb is not a reliable source. Neither is fandom. If his podcasts and youtubing are notable you need to find external news articles to support that. The only one notable so far is the Yu-Gi-Oh Zexal one, and it is not clear he voiced Roku for the majority of all those episodes. I see another name Darren Dunstain there. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 19:36, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I feel like you're ignoring a ton of other items I've pointed out here. Does this article suffice as as a reliable source (not for the whole of the entry, just the LEGO item, it also confirms yu gi oh) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ellyrox (talk • contribs) 19:59, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ellyrox, that's a cast announcement and does not show significant coverage WP:SIGCOV AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:01, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ellyrox, if you're going to bring up Arin Hanson look at the references that support his article. Stuff like Geek.com, Kotaku, Destructoid, VGFacts, Nerdist, Australian Broadcasting Corporation, SXSW. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 20:04, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

So is it my understanding that a press release is insufficient? What is an appropriate number of sources? It's also my understanding that yes, IMDB is not considered a reliable source for biographical information, it is deemed reliable for cast listings of released content (as noted in the VERY long wiki discussion about weather imdb is sufficient.)

I was using Arin as a reference as they are in the same field, not the same strata fame wise. Per the youtube about page for Ricepirate (Mick), https://www.youtube.com/user/ricepiratenewgrounds/about he has 485K subscribers, and his channel has 62,909,492 views.

Is linking to content itself allowable, or just articles about the content? What is the threshold here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ellyrox (talk • contribs) 21:27, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ellyrox, you need secondary sources independent of the subject. Press release is primary. Interviews are primary. Direct YouTube videos are primary. There is not a threshold of subscribers / views that make a Youtuber notable. They need references to secondary news sources independent of the subject. See WP:42 AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:34, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Dave "Fat Man" Williams

My article Dave "Fat Man" Williams was rejected for several reasons. I am new to Wikipedia editing and value criticism and suggestions. The article was rejected, in part, for not showing references that qualify the subject for an article. I understand my need of better references. The subject of the rejected article, however, is chronicled in a German language Wikipedia page. I mention this only to point out the subject has previously qualified for an article. Also, as rejecting editor you asked that I not use discogs.com as a discographical reference. My reading of the rules for musician references suggests I could use allmusic.com as an alternative. Is this right?

Thank you for your help. yours, rudypoo

Rudypoo (talk) 22:16, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Rudypoo, yes, see WP:RSP. Discogs is no good, Allmusic is conditional. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:39, 20 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

your assistance please...

You added a primary sources tag to the article on Jessica Pressler. Could you please go to Talk:Jessica Pressler and explain why you placed this tag, or, if you don't think you can do that, or you think it no longer applies, remove it? Geo Swan (talk) 16:33, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Geo Swan, I replied on that talk page. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:01, 21 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to weigh in at at Wikipedia_talk:No_original_research#Are interviews considered secondary sources... redux Geo Swan (talk) 22:33, 22 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
My reading of that discussion is that no-one thinks interviews are all primary sources. They all seem to agree that it is the context of the interview that let's one determine whether it should be considered a primary or a secondary source.
For what it is worth, I don't think the three (so far) respondents there share your fear of using primary sources. My reading of our policies remains that there are many uses of primary sources that remain totally policy compliant. The key thing to remember is that primary sources don't establish notability. Geo Swan (talk) 15:52, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Geo Swan, I agree with you and the others there that the interviews are situational. Some are quality and balanced secondary with tidbits of primary, but others are Q&A primary and promotional where the interviewee dictates the content. Vanity Fair has a great interview of Lena Waithe, and I really like Tom Bissell's detailed interview with video game voice actress Jennifer Hale, even though there was one bit of information concerning her birth year that was erroneous / contradictory. Anyway, I still stand that I tagged correctly Jessica Pressler's article back in August 2018 when a huge chunk of the references were coming from Pressler's own writing. Changing out the primary interviews with the subjects for the secondary sources that mention Pressler interviewing the subject helps cut down on the primaries. Catching a quality interview of her by some other newspaper saying she worked for the Philly newspaper is better than having a link to her actual article in the Philly newspaper or citing her website. When it's clear the article is not going to be steered by Pressler advocates, then we can let in more Q&A interviews with her. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:57, 23 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation to discuss fate of Hermes Conrad

Hi AngusWOOF,

Thanks for reviewing my draft for "List of Planet Express employees" and for the suggestion. The main reason why I formulated it was because the page for Hermes Conrad, who is one of the main characters on Futurama, keeps getting nominated for deletion. While it has become apparent that Hermes' page does not meet notability requirements (the page for Amy Wong, another main character, might not be notable either), I didn't want it simply to be redirected to the generic List of Futurama characters page with no detailed description added like the last time Hermes' page was redirected, hence why I proposed merging the supporting characters of Futurama (Hermes, Amy Wong, Professor Farnsworth, and Zoidberg) into one article as seen in that draft, while leaving pages for the three primary characters (Fry, Leela, Bender) intact. I think your suggestion to simply create the detailed description below the main list has some merit though.

If you have time or happen to follow Futurama, I'd like to invite you to put your input for the deletion discussion for Hermes' page, or the one for merging Hermes with Amy, Prof. Farnsworth and Zoidberg.

Best regards, --WuTang94 (talk) 02:14, 24 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WuTang94, thanks. It sounds like they're trying to reorganize the lists so that there should be some detail for the other major recurring or main characters. If Hermes Conrad's page can be beefed up with individual character notability: more reception concerning the specific character, more perspectives of the character outside its main media, then they won't have to merge it.

Robin Atkin Downes

Hello! I had notice that you edited Laura Bailey's Wikipedia page, and thought if I can ask if you want to use your skills to fix up and give references to Robin Atkin Downes's page. There's a hell of a lot of credits in it that probably shouldn't be there. Lacon432 (talk) 05:06, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Lacon432, I would move any unsourced credits off to embedded notes for now, check over and remove uncheckmarked BTVA credits, and get rid of the rowspan. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 05:24, 25 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Alexchristofi, you're referring to feedback from months ago. The article is still in the AFC queue so any other AFC reviewer can take a look at it now. It doesn't have to be me. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 13:47, 27 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Cultural impact of Michael Jackson‎

Regarding this, see what I stated here on Popcornduff's talk page and what Popcornduff stated.

I understand what you mean, but the editor did move it to draft space. So the editor can work on it in draft space. We should take a "wait and see" approach. Also, before it's redirected, it needs to be moved back to main space so that the edit history and talk page history are preserved. Draft space material is eventually deleted unless it's something like Talk:Star Wars: The Last Jedi/Archive audience response, which preserved the talk page. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 06:23, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Flyer22 Reborn, up to you, but I've seen it submitted to draft multiple times, which is where it's been in contention. You might want to recreate the redirect and have it tagged with R with possibilities or salted. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 07:03, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

When it's recreated, I will ping all of the editors (meaning you included) who commented on whether or not the article should exist, and note that we are now assessing this new incarnation. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 07:08, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Everestpedia, do not use goodreads as a source. You also need to explain how this person is notable. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 18:26, 29 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Please check all the sourcesEverestpedia (talk) 03:13, 30 September 2019 (UTC)

Hello Sir... I have written about Narendra Singh Dhami that he is a Nepalease author then I have also provided 3 or 4 URL (source) of his books, written by Narendra Singh Dhami that you can check.What can be the better and reliable source to prove about author then a Books ? Please Check the Books and you may search on Google 'Narendra Singh Dhami Books' then you will see..I think you are checking only one link. It isn't enough to provide the URL's of book to prove about author of the book.Sorry but iam tired of Wikipedia service,you can search about Narendra Singh Dhami on Google to know is he notable or not . People are buying his books everywhere in the word...his books are available on Both formats digital and Hardcover.

Now I think I have explained why the article about Narendra Singh Dhami should be accepted.

Please Please Please Check all the sources provided,and search about Narendra Singh Dhami on Google,he is already verified on Google.

Everestpedia, you're missing the point. The references need to come from external sources, not sources written by the subject itself. See WP:NOR AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:18, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Doxxing

Hi Angus, I genuinely don't want to cause any gried for you about this, because I absolutely agree with your concerns about the editing in this case, but you might want to quickly re-read WP:DOX. This applies to all editors, even vandals, self-publicists and spam merchants - if the information hasn't been posted on-wiki, we mustn't use it onwiki to link accounts to real identities. An admin has revdelled a couple of your recent edits to my talk page - I wanted to give you a heads up in case there are other steps you need to take. Feel free to remove this message once you've read it, of course. Cheers GirthSummit _(blether) 20:39, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Girth Summit, my concern is when there is possible undisclosed paid editing because it is advertising. When I look up the username in general or see that the username is related to the person (shares exact same name, shares last name), what is the right tagging to place there? COI? UDP? Autobio? or nothing? for Autobio, if they write the same info on their user page, can it stay tagged as such? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:12, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AngusWOOF, I share your concerns, but if you look at WP:COI, I think about the fourth paragraph down, it's pretty explicit - do not post identities. If you follow the link breadcrumbs, you have to report to COIN and to ask a functionary to examine the evidence in private. I think in this particular case, the COI doesn't seem to me to be crucially important at this stage - the draft and sourcing are so poor that they will never be published in their current state, regardless of the author's identity. Cheers GirthSummit _(blether) 21:21, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Girth Summit, okay, I will post to COIN if I feel like I need to question if anyone's username is connected to the subject and it is not declared right away. Can I still assume that if the username and the subject are the same, they can be autobio tagged or just punt that to COIN? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:26, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AngusWOOF, my understanding is that if it's posted on wiki you can talk about it - so, if their username or something on their user page that gives rise to suspicions, then you're fine, but if it's something off wiki, even if it's someone's Twitter account, blog and Facebook page all saying 'I edit Wikipedia under the name Girth Summit', then you need to reach for a Checkuser or similar before mentioning anything about it. Hope that makes sense. GirthSummit _(blether) 21:36, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Girth Summit, got it. Thanks. If they add references on Wikipedia itself to such twitter accounts, then I suppose it's fair game but it has to be done on their side to show they are self-disclosing they edit on Wikipedia. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 21:47, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AngusWOOF, exactly - if they post through their wiki account that such and such a Twitter account is theirs, then of course you can mention because they've made the connection - but not if it's the other way around. (And for good reason - if ever someone claims to be me on a Twitter and Facebook account, they are trolling me, cos I've got neither!) GirthSummit _(blether) 21:51, 30 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi sir or madam, I am Jaden7667, the person who created Malcolm Waters, I don’t know why you decline it. So please can you also explain why my article should be merged with Cathay Pacific. Jaden7667 Jaden7667 (talk) 17:09, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Jaden7667, see my comment on the draft. He needs independent notability besides the single event. If that has made him a celebrity as with Sully, then expand on that part of his life. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:36, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

AFC Declined

Hi @AngusWOOF I am currently confused by your reasoning, If you can please share some more details. I see that this is on Wikipedia as well? How come the Wikipedia policies are being overlooked for certain articles? for eg :- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time2

Also if you can share what exactly I would need in terms of sources that would be appreciated. My sincere apologies, my intention is not to be rude but I'm confused. I had never submitted an afc before so your help will be much appreciated and if you can also share what does time 2 has that my article didn't have for approval that will be much useful. Thanks & Regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.46.211.242 (talk) 08:32, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

185.46.211.242, the main issues are that you've described a very generic business organization that does not show how it is uniquely notable for Wikipedia. You've written only three lines about the organization:

"A decade old digital marketing firm currently active." - which decade? specify year founded and by whom? where is this situated? what do they do?
"Raises funds for charity as well from time to time with the networking events." - so what? lots of organizations raise funds and have networking events
"For article I've shared below the links which can be used to authenticate and validate their presence on Wikipedia." - half of the links are coming from the organization itself, press releases or interviews. You need secondary news sources that are independent of the subject, not primary social media sources. They also need to support the statements that you make about the company, not just be piled at the end of the article.

Questions on recently rejected article

Hi @AngusWOOF,

You recently review my article [2] and rejected it. I had a few questions related to it so that i could improve the article: 1. "This still reads like a resume": Will it help if i add personal life and education and club all the important events of the subject life under career? I looked into similar articles on defense subjects and this seems to the trend in all these articles 2. Praising the subject: Can you point out a few examples which led you to say so? I can edit these so that they are in line to Wiki policy. 3. Needs more external news sources to show neutrality: I have posted references 1-29 on the subject from reputed Indian news papers. I would also like to point out that these references have been checked by previous approves and they had no issue on neutrality and or need of more external sources. I think 25 odd references should be adequate. Please let me know otherwise.--Manas.chafekar (talk) 14:24, 5 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Manas.chafekar, 1) why are you adding "clubs" and "education" like a section? Why are there "Important milestones"? That would make it appear even more like a resume. Education can go in the early career section and Personal life section can come afterwards in a separate section. 2. Praising the subject. The sections pertaining to his "accomplishments" are worded in presenting the subject in a glowing / praising light. Stuff like over-explaining the conditions that he landed in and how he successfully landed. That he supervised different groups or logged thousands of hours / years of experience is also a resume stuffer. The section needs to be written to be more of a biography that walks through his career and events that make him notable. 3) There are a number of sources that are coming from his own writings. Those should be minimized as they are primary and self-published sources. For the purposes of notability, you should highlight the best WP:THREE on the comments / talk page from news sources that show he is notable. Most importantly, I am concerned about the overall conflict of interest as your username implies that you may be connected to the subject. It really needs to be neutralized in tone, and balanced as not everything he has done is praiseworthy. If he's made some high profile mistakes or drew criticism, that has to be included too.

Hi @AngusWOOF,
