Draft:Yoasobi

Why did you ignore that a draft existed for Yoasobi before making it? You could have moved the draft to the mainspace and expanded upon it. I noticed you worked on the page in your sandbox before making the article in mainspace, but when you went to create the page, you would have seen the notice that a draft existed for the page, created by another user (Swift68). Granted, the draft is nothing special, but building upon the work of other editors is the core of Wikipedia and you could have chosen to do this. (I have turned off pings. I will check for a reply.)

I had finished my version in my sandbox at the time I noticed the draft existed. My reasoning at the time was that 1) the draft was basically a stub and didn’t have anything my version didn’t cover 2) Swift68 hasn’t worked on the draft in almost a week. I’m not sure what else I could’ve done. Would it have been better for me to update my version into the draft, then submit it for AfC? ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 06:38, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

It's true that I am not active on Wikipedia now, and I am happy to see other volunteers still work on it. Thanks for the contributions by both of you. Swift68 (talk) 06:45, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

@Swift68: Thanks for your countributions to J-pop articles as well. I hope I didnt offend you in any way. Feel free to edit the Yoasobi page as you'd like, and let me know if you have any questions or concerns. ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 06:55, 3 June 2020 (UTC)

Why did you revert my addition to the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign page?

I added a link to a list of companies/startups launched by Alumni/Faculty/Students from UIUC. It is crowdsourced and validated to ensure accuracy. The feedback is that it is not suited for an encyclopedia, which does not make sense to me since it is a validated list and has a mechanism to ensure accuracy.

I reviewed the guidelines provided for links and did not see anything on there that the link seemed to break.

Thanks!

@Anon2490n: You were reverted for our external links guideline at Wikipedia:External links, which states that inline external links are not to be added. The link provided also violates some of the points at WP:ELNO, specifically 1 and 14 (probably more). ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 04:33, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer newsletter June 2020

Hello Ganbaruby,

Your help can make a difference

NPP Sorting can be a great way to find pages needing new page patrolling that match your strengths and interests. Using ORES, it divides articles into topics such as Literature or Chemistry and on Geography. Take a look and see if you can find time to patrol a couple pages a day. With over 10,000 pages in the queue, the highest it's been since ACPERM, your help could really make a difference.

Google Adds New Languages to Google Translate

In late February, Google added 5 new languages to Google Translate: Kinyarwanda, Odia (Oriya), Tatar, Turkmen and Uyghur. This expands our ability to find and evaluate sources in those languages.

Discussions and Resources

• A discussion on handling new article creation by paid editors is ongoing at the Village Pump.
• Also at the Village Pump is a discussion about limiting participation at Articles for Deletion discussion.
• A proposed new speedy deletion criteria for certain kinds of redirects ended with no consensus.

Draft:OCR-A

You asked for providing sources. There are no sources. I myself am a computer software developer. The edits that I made are the recollections of me and my colleagues. There are things in life, particularly memories and feelings, that do not have any sources or documentation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:CF50:3390:0:0:0:49 (talk) 06:24, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

That would make the information added origninal research, which is prohibited per Wikipedia guidelines. ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 06:30, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Ganbaruby. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to Kubernetes because they seemed inappropriate

Sure, I'm going to take care of this! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kotruv (talk • contribs) 06:52, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

@Kotruv: I've reverted a bunch of other links you and people before you added. We really want to keep the external links section to a mininum: usually, the official website of the subject is enough. Check WP:ELYES for which kinds of links we want and don't want. ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 09:29, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

Niles' Register

Hello, I'm Ganbaruby. I wanted to let you know that I removed one or more external links you added to Weekly Register because they seemed inappropriate for an encyclopedia. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page or take a look at our guidelines about links. Thank you. ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 01:35, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Dear Ganbaruby,

Niles’ Register is not an encyclopedia. It is a newsweekly that was published from 1811 to 1849. To find references in in to a person, place, or thing, you need a cumulative index. The link I inserted (below) directs researchers to a useful index.

http://speccol.msa.maryland.gov/NilesRegister/pages/NilesRegisterSearch.aspx

By the way, the Wikipedia article for Niles’ Register includes a political cartoon that is attributed to certain issues of Niles’ Register. However, the Register never included political cartoons -- or any illustrations.

I know more about Niles’ Register than anyone else in the world.

Per WP:EL, inline externa links should not be added. Your link would actually be welcomed in a "External Links" section at the bottom of the page. As for the cartoon, if you have access to any Niles' Register paper and could provide a scan of it (like at Daily Worker or National Police Gazette), that would greatly help the article's quality. Upload the scan to Wikimedia Commons here and tag it with this template. ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 01:51, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Why did you erase the "fact" that the hords that nowadays control the streets of many American cities have vandalized the statute of Cervantes in San Francisco?

I can understand that you are one of the Americans ashamed of the hords of ignorant Californians that have taken the control of the streets and that, problably, will take the control of the government soon... But the reality is that they have vandalized the statue of Cervantes believing he is a fascist (3 centuries before fascism was invented!!), while the majority of Californias agree from their homes, ignore who Cervantes was and what is fascism or are terrified by demonstrators.

Do you need references? Here some:

or just google — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.63.69.175 (talk) 17:16, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

You were reverted for not providing a single reference in the article. Also, there is no mention of fascism in any of the three links above. ◢   Ganbaruby!   (Say hi!) 17:22, 20 June 2020 (UTC)

Not a single, but three.

You can continue saying the statue was not vandalized. The picture at the San Francisco Examiner (for example) is clear https://2zwmzkbocl625qdrf2qqqfok-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/21903853_web1_200620-sfe-statues_3.jpg The news is everywhere.

Denying the reality does not change History.
