Copyvio revision delete

Hello Bbb23, could you please check this revision delete request? Regards! DreamRimmer (talk) 18:44, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure why you've come to me, but I suggest you ask an administrator who's more familiar with such tasks, although I believe the template may attract an admin. I always go to Diannaa myself, but I'm sure there are others.--Bbb23 (talk) 20:27, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@DreamRimmer: It's up to the admin doing the revision deletion to check your work and verify that the requested action is appropriate. I see a couple of problems. One is that the curent version of the article still has an enormous overlap with the source webpage, and did have a similar amount of overlap even before the addition of the content you removed. Is it a Wikpedia mirror? A second problem is that the content you removed does not seem to be present in the purported source. — Diannaa (talk) 21:02, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Seeming block evasion

Hi. This page is a favourite of a known and long term banned user. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Theories_about_Alexander_the_Great_in_the_Quran&action=history If you look at this edit by Gamma737 https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1149112662&oldid=1147893182&title=Theories_about_Alexander_the_Great_in_the_Quran&diffmode=source you'll see that they effectively reinstate the edits you reverted here https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=1146405804&oldid=1146400010&title=Theories_about_Alexander_the_Great_in_the_Quran&diffmode=source Seems a sleeper account to me. ThanksNEDOCHAN (talk) 13:24, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That's not enough for me to block. Please file a report at WP:SPI.--Bbb23 (talk) 13:29, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
ok thanks NEDOCHAN (talk) 13:46, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. A tag has been placed on User:Michael-Moates requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please note that Wikipedia is not a free web hosting service. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion".

Why did this end up here? Did I do something stupid? Valereee (talk) 14:48, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No, I created the page years ago when I tagged it for sock puppetry. Silly automation.--Bbb23 (talk) 14:49, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Ah! Valereee (talk) 14:50, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
hahahahaha...I'm thinking I should've unchecked some box...sorry, never actually CSD'd a user page before Valereee (talk) 15:00, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Probably wouldn't have this time if the user hadn't been kind of obstreperous. Valereee (talk) 15:01, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I noticed on his Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:03, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This is clear harassment by Valereee. My page has information about myself as to the many topics I write about here. This does not meet the U5 criteria. Michael-Moates (talk) 19:08, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nabela Noor

@Bbb23:, Would you be able to draftify the page you deleted (Nabela Noor) into Draft:Nabela Noor so I can improve the page in draftspace with the sources? Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 20:23, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Will you agree not to move the draft to article space on your own but instead use WP:AFC?--Bbb23 (talk) 20:24, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Bbb23:, I do agree, I will not to move the draft to article space on your own but instead use WP:AFC. Thanks, Das osmnezz (talk) 20:32, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
 Done. See Draft:Nabela Noor.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:00, 10 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Awaiting your response

I was awaiting your response and you reverted my inquiry? Before you say I was editing the archive, I would not have had to do so if I wasn't ignored – Batreeq (Talk) (Contribs) 03:43, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Request review: sock block for User:IloveDPPH and User:Pharmacystudent000

Hi, I'm writing to discuss your sockpuppet block for the two accounts.

I can confirm that they are not socks of each other but just two people who use the same IP (as of records), through probably different UA.

At the same time, they are participants of a current University undergraduate course that have a dashboard set up for this purpose. As seen by the link:

https://outreachdashboard.wmflabs.org/courses/The_University_of_Hong_Kong/CAES9720_Academic_Communication_for_Pharmacy_Students_(2022-23)/students/overview

Please unblock the accounts if possible, thanks. I'm happy to provide more evidence to support the idea that these two accounts, though related to each other, are in no possibility engaging in any sort of sockpuppetry. Please let me know if there are any questions.

What is your role in this?--Bbb23 (talk) 14:46, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I originally collaborated with the university to help deliver their WikiEDU programmes (till 2021) in a paid support role (where I help out administrative tasks, deliver editing training and help amend the materials for the courses). The collaboration ended as we think the instructors are equipped with skills in dealing with most problems that won't require attention and my busy schedule in issues well known, such as OA2021. I still do local (in Hong Kong) educational/GLAM programmes now so they found me when there's this issue.
Hope that clarifies stuff. 1233 ( T / C） 19:24, 11 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion Request Review/Help

Hi Bbb23, I was hoping to gain some better understanding of the speedy deletion tag on the page I created for Schellman. I'm new to Wiki and writing articles and thought this would be a good start. I would like to understand what edits I can make to help show that the topic I'm writing about is not advertising in nature. For background, I saw someone from this company speak at a conference in March. They spoke about Digital ID, which I'm very interested in. Trying to broaden my skills on wiki, I thought I would draft a page for Schellman (instead of the person I saw speak, since that seems harder to do) to gain experience before writing other pages. I would love any insights you have into the best way to approach writing pages. I reviewed the How to Create a Page, and I checked the Notability Guidelines page before drafting this page. I welcome your help, if possible. Thank you! CyberTrinity (talk) 14:42, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You might talk to Jamiebuba, who reviewed the draft before tagging it for speedy deletion. Other venues have already been noted on your Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:01, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the quick reply, Bbb23. I'll reach out to Jamiebuba. CyberTrinity (talk) 16:03, 12 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
