Can online news journal source be used

I would like to edit the Tony Rezko page Tony_Rezko to include a picture showing his connection to Senator Barack Obama. I was told that if a credible news source posted the picture, then said picture should be fair game and usable on Wikipedia. As things currently stand, I feel the inclusion of photo-op with only the Clintons is suggestive of underhandedness in light of the fact that there is zero published evidence of Rezko having any sort of connection with the Clintons. It doesn't seem fair that edit rights to that page should be controlled by proponents of a single candidate.

Need some advice

Sarc, I saw on a talk page, you intervening about a feud between John Celona and other editors. He made an edit on my first page "Larry Sinclair," and suddenly another editor jkp212 seems to have come running. I don't want to get between them. Could you please give me an idea of what is wrong with my page, and where I can go to be tutored on how to clean it up? I really want to. It's an important issue, and I think someone wants to remove it for political purposes. I am really green here, and don't even know if this is the appropriate way of messaging you. There's a lot of density to this community, and the tools take a lot of time to grasp. Is there any way to have email exhange in private without revealing emails over the air?

John Roggeveen

Hi Sarcasticidealist. I feel that John Roggeveen's wikipedia article should be kept at least for the duration of the Alberta General Election 2008 given that he is a candidate for a major party. As well, John is a member of numerous law associations and has been an active community member of Midnapore. If wikipedia policy is that nominated candidates should be deleted, I didn't know that and then the article should go. However, that's pretty unfair in the middle of an election that only the incumbent be allowed one. Is it official policy? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gakrueger (talkcontribs) 18:24, 17 February 2008

After a series of escalating blocks, he came back with this little gem and I indef'ed him. I just wanted to give you a heads up that rollback is probably not an issue at this point. Ronnotel (talk) 01:29, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not accusing you of vandalism. I believe that you were a good faith editor and an asset to Wikipedia. But I also believe that nobody who posts the kind of thing that Ronnotel linked to above has any business on Wikipedia. Also, please note that your posting here constitutes a violation of WP:SOCK, since you're doing so in evasion of a block. Sarcasticidealist (talk) 07:38, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Your recall process

As seen at User:Sarcasticidealist/Recall ... "a Bureaucrat is hereby requested to de-sysop me." That may not work, as 'crats don't have that authority. A request would need to be made to a steward, and it would need to be made by you. The details of why have been discussed before, see the talk for WP:AAA for example.

Piedmont High School

I don't know how to use this talk page, but please help me. You are the only Wikipedia person who seems to actually want to help me rather than attack me. The fact I have put up on Piedmont High School and Piedmont, Ca is really a fact. I live in Piedmont and am not lying. If I show proof of residence, will people let me keep it on? Will you please try to help me with it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Akhamenehpour (talkcontribs) 4:31, February 20, 2008


I don't think that wholly the liberalness of Piedmont has gotten into a newspaper, but I remember very well that people have written letters to the editor of the Piedmont Post regarding different aspects of such a liberal city. The most memorable for me are education and taxes. The Piedmont Post doesn't have an online archive though.

Problem uploading image in Kirikoketa

Thanks for pushing through the RfD of this article. As a side note, just out of interest really, I'm interested in your slight clarification of what I said. Are you saying a candidate can be notable, even if the only notable thing they've ever done is be a candidate, provided there has been substantial coverage by reliable sources independent of the subject? Can you point me to the reference in the Wikipedia guidelines? Thanks! NostinAdrek (talk) 11:55, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Candidates

No worries...

There's never been a clear consensus on how to handle people who've run in multiple elections. My own personal preference is to copy/paste, and then link directly to the appropriate candidates list (i.e. putting [[Liberal Party candidates, 2008 Alberta provincial election#John Smith (Riding)|John Smith]] into the results table) instead of turning the person's name into a redirect, although obviously under GFDL we can't do that if the article has already been created. Bearcat (talk) 22:35, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

If the article's already been created, then we have to keep the redirect in place. It's not that we can't bypass it by linking the same way from the election article, but the redirect itself would have to stay in place even if it's no longer being directly used. Bearcat (talk) 23:07, 22 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Samuel Kauffman

I noticed that you removed the {{db-nonsense}} tag I placed on the Samuel Kauffman article with the explanation "not nonsense". I was wondering if you could explain how you reached that conclusion. Before I added the tag, I did several searches using Google and other search engines and found that:

  • "Samuel Kauffman" gives no links to anyone having anything to do with Iraq
  • "Colonial Governor of Iraq" gives no links whatsoever

I also checked the Wiki article for Hendrix College and found that Samuel Kauffman is not listed in the Notable alumni and faculty section, which is unusual for someone with such an important role. And I noted that User:Nash4cash8, the article's author, is new and this is their only contribution. My conclusion is that this article is total nonsense and a fabrication attempt to artificially create history. That is why I tagged it. What would you suggest we do now? Thanks. Truthanado (talk) 16:19, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the feedback. Although I have been patrolling for a few months now, I am still learning. I had seen other similar "hoax/vandalism" articles tagged as A7 "nonsense" and deleted by admins ... that is why I tagged it as "nonsense". Thanks for tagging it as a hoax. I think I'll keep an eye on it for a few days and see if someone can add the requisite reliable sources. If not, I'll PROD it unless, of course, someone does that before I do. Thanks again.

Changing speedy deletion of Hitashi Nakamura to PROD

Hi. I was rather surprised to see that you overturned the speedy deletion notice I placed on the Hitashi Nakamura article and PRODed it instead. While the comment I wrote there was admittedly rather brief, I wonder it you looked at the Talk page? I thought that the article might be a hoax when I first saw it for a number of reasons (such as Hitashi not being a real Japanese name, and the total lack of web references to the subject or any of his "famous" works), which is why I simply tagged it as a possible hoax. Further investigation however showed that it was simply a copy of the Izumi Aso article with names and details changed. It is therefore clearly an intentional hoax which should be speedily deleted. While the article creator will no doubt be overjoyed to see his vandalism remain on view for another week, I find it embarrassing as a Wikipedia editor that something like this is left hanging around any longer than necessary. I will delete the faked sections from the article, but I would ask you to reconsider speedy deleting this. Thanks. --DAJF (talk) 08:12, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

ALEGRIA HOLDINGS COMPANY LLC

Hello Sarc- I am kindly requesting your help in including my article into wikipedia. It was speedy deleted due to A7. Can you please advise what changes I can make or additions to have this article included? Thanks, Ivan

Why was iitjobs deleted....It deserves to be put back.

I am going to answer every question about whomsoever felt that the article should be deleted.

1) Notability - Getting endorsed by government institution's and universities is am ample indication of notability and as a matter of fact i challenge you to name any ....even a single website that is similar to this.Isn't it pathbreaking idea.while many job boards are fragmented and focus locally.There is not even a single job board in this world that is similar to iitjobs.

These guys are unique and one of their kind.These guys deserve to be listed.

3) Damcks told it was advertising and iit means india it jobs.While it is clearly mentioned on the logo itself that it stands for "international IT jobs" and btw if it were india it jobs why would it show job openings from all over teh world.

Did you even bother to check the site first before deleting it ???

Misunderstandings pertaining to iitjobs

The problem is misunderstanding... people have said that iitjobs stands for " india it jobs " ,while it is clearly mentioned that it stands for "international IT jobs"

this was the reason for one deletion argument and the other was that its a non-notable company...well a company which caters to agencies like The United Nations ,fortune 500 companies isn't notable....isn't that a joke ?

what notability does naukri.com have ?....please be aware i am not questioning any site but i am asking for explanations.

Fort Edmonton Article

Hey there,

I'm just looking for feedback from an Edmontonian editor. I've been of the opinion that Fort Edmonton and Fort Edmonton Park ought to have separate articles -- one dealing with the historical, real-life Fort, and one dealing with the modern-day infrastructure which contains a facsimile of that original Fort (if you've been there, you know that the park represents a fair amount more than just the Fort itself). I've started a prototype article in my sandbox [[3]]. I just wanted to bounce the idea off an editor. Obviously I need to do more research, but the framework for what I see the article becoming is there. What are your thoughts on this? RPM (talk) 02:17, 3 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks!

Thank you for your reply. In response, in time I do intend to expand the Fort Edmonton article to reflect the history of the Fort to an extent that would probably seem digressive in an article about the whole Park, much as I feel that adding this much detail about the Park would be digressive in an article about the Fort just by itself. It'll just take time to find it on the net -- I'm already pretty well-read on the topic, but finding good, detailed sources is hard, and obviously I must avoid WP:OR. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rpmullan (talkcontribs) 00:25, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent. There's definitely enough info to make a full Fort Edmonton article -- what's there presently barely scratches the surface. Meanwhile, should I wait to see if there is discussion of opinions on the split, or perhaps finish up Fort Edmonton Park to a point that it is acceptable and publish it as a new article?

Infoboxes vs. succession boxes

There isn't an actual hard-and-fast policy about that, but my own rule of thumb is to not include a succession box for positions that are being listed in the main infobox at the top of the article or those which have a dedicated template such as {{ABPremiers}}. It's more of a design philosophy than a firm policy at this point, but I generally follow WP:TCREEP on that question. Bearcat (talk) 04:20, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

WT:CSD instead of WP:VPP

I thought about that, but thought (due to bigger themes than just CSD) WP:VPP might be better, and might get a bigger audience.

Noah Lemas

Sarc-

Hi. First, I wanted to thank you for the most objective opinion offered yet on my page about Noah Lemas.

I realize that, at this point, the deletion of Mr. Lemas' page is probably inevitable and I do understand why. I'm hoping, though, that you could answer a question or two for me.

First, Mr. Lemas' situation is rather unique. He appears to be the ONLY Democratic Party candidate for the Congressional seat in Oregon's 2nd District (the only other Democrat that filed is 20 years old...not old enough to sit in Congress). Mr. Lemas' candidacy has been covered intensively by the Bend Bulletin (Bend, Oregon). Unfortunately, with one of the newspaper industry's only trends of growing circulation, Bulletin editors have chosen to make their web-site fee-based/subscription based. This means that the coverage that Mr. Lemas is getting in the Bend Bulletin (the largest newspaper in the 2nd District) NEVER shows up online and, in turn, NEVER shows up in Google searches. Since Google searches seem to be the only reference used by other editors, Mr. Lemas very much appears to have little or no "notability." Such is most definitely not the case. Mr. Lemas has been covered numerous times in the Bend Bulletin in the last year, but such coverage never makes it to Google or to Wiki editors.

I will (as I believe you've essentially advised) contribute a new biography of Mr. Lemas when "significant media coverage" develops. However, my fear as that my contribution will be tossed aside simply because of the idiosynracies of Mr. Lemas' regional newspaper; that hardly seems fair. The question(s) here? What would you do in such a situation? Just how has this type of situation been dealt with in the past (if at all)? Is winning the Democratic nomination sufficient for entry at Wikipedia? Okay, okay, long enough. Any advice you can give is greatly appreciated.

And, again, thanks for the objective and rational opinion re: the original entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by OregonChange (talkcontribs) 04:43, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lemas...again

I am indeed in charge of Mr. Lemas' campaign. I wasn't aware of the page you linked to until I followed the link. Admittedly, and as is obvious by now, this is my first foray into the Wiki world. Thank you very much for guiding me in the right direction. Even though I'm clearly affiliated with Mr. Lemas, I tried to be as objective as possible (and actually feel I did a pretty good job of it ;)). I'm more aware now, though, of the concerns, which will undoubtedly help me in the future.

The Bend Bulletin piece was the "front page" of the "Local" section (March 13, 2008, C1/C7). It was a relatively lengthy article and interview written by James Sinks, the Bulletin's state politics reporter in Salem. Every other major district newspaper has, at the very least, listed Mr. Lemas' candidacy and, in the case of the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin, biographical information as well (the biographical information wasn't provided by us; it is available in the public domain at the Oregon Secretary of State). I tried to list all of these references in the "discussion" portion of the AfD page, though I'm not sure that's the right place for it(?) or if it can even help at this point.

Would you recommend that I pass this project off to one of Mr. Lemas' dedicated supporters (assuming they are not part of the campaign)? It seems odd to create a messenger, as it were, when one isn't necessary, but I'd gladly pass the project on if it would change how it might be accepted by editors.

Also, I'm grappling with a notion introduced by this very debate. What are the bounds of "notability?" In other words, Mr. Lemas is certainly "notable" locally, certainly recognizable, as both businessman and, now, politician. There then is a geographical radius from that locale at which point Mr. Lemas is no longer recognizable. Perhaps somewhat further out is a geographical radius at which point Mr. Lemas is also no longer "notable." How does Wikipedia define this phenomenon? It would seem then, that Mr. Lemas' "notability" relative to Wikipedia standards is very much a product of these terrestrial radii (heretofore undefined ;)). For some reason, that strikes me as odd (the irony perhaps being that the web is supposed to make the world smaller but, in this case, it seems to be making the world larger, or at least is acheiving a 1/1 scale ;)).

Okay, one last thing...sorry. If the worst case scenario developed at Wikipedia (that is to say everyone and their bitch's whelp suddenly had pages on Wikipedia), how does that really hurt anyone (no, that's not what I want from Wikipedia, I admit)? People are only found when they are searched for. Wikipedia stood alone at first; you went to Wikipedia and you searched for someone/something. If you ignore Google for a moment, as though it didn't even exist, then, theoretically, as soon as someone typed someone else's name into Wikipedia, some level of "notability" exists. I keep thinking that, perhaps, Wikipedia should begin to measure notability by how many unique IP's (and I'm no IT guy, that's for sure, so I could be totally off here) search for any given person. At what point do unique searches within Wikipedia alone constitute "notability?" (the reason that I'm struggling with that word is that it seems a purposeful substitute for the clearly more appropriate term, "popularity," which, too, is difficult, if not impossible, to quantify).

Mr. Lemas is a progressive political candidate with a growing support base in one of the more interesting races in the upcoming election for United States Congress. He is also the overwhelming favorite to win the Democratic nomination in the primary. That's pretty heady stuff, and definitely "notable." Ironically, the same things that limit Mr. Lemas' campaign (finances (in the sense that political warchests buy candidates "notability" through sheer self-exposure) and media idiosyncracies) also limit his ability to be properly recognized at Wikipedia. That might just be the toughest part to swallow ("Wikipedia...it's like politics, only more political").

Sorry for the rant...I obviously feel strongly about this candidate and this issue. Thank you again, for your reasonable (and of course very helpful) voice in this and for reading until the end ;). I intend to do exactly as you have suggested and will either re-submit when more media coverage is available online or hand this idea off to a Lemas supporter not directly affiliated with the campaign (if you think that's best). Thanks so much. (OregonChange (talk) 07:36, 14 March 2008 (UTC))[reply]
