NEOTU

I received several times a message stating that there is a conflict of interest regarding Neotu

There is no conflict of interest. The two galleries (Neotu in Paris and Neotu in New York) closed in 2001. So far I am the main contributor and try to trace the history of Neotu galleries which had a major role in the furniture design. Others are welcome to contribute to this history and hopefully other designers, critics, historians will add their comments.

Please could you help me regarding this matter.

Thank you

You founded the gallery, so yes, there is a conflict of interest. The conflict of interest arises because it's highly unlikely you could edit that article in an unbiased manner. Wikipedia strongly discourages you from editing articles where you have a conflict of interest.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:44, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I am one of the founders of Neotu. Neotu closed in 2001. I am entering a chronological history of Neotu and the references that I gave can be check by any one.The bibliography is the major one. I am hopeful that other people will contribute to this article. Beside I am simultaneously developing the FRENCH version and I did receive a message like this. In fact I received compliments and a message from a designer who added his name in the DESIGNERS section. Please check by yourself the French version: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neotu . Let me tell you that the English version is only a translation of the French one. Best regards Gerard Dalmon. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neotu (talkcontribs) 23:50, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The English and French wikipedias (and every other language version) have different rules for articles. WP:COI still applies.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 23:52, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Let me reiterate that I am not offering a point of view. I am listing a chronological history of Neotu. I only list the facts of the designers and the exhibitions. I am not making a story of Neotu, nor am I making any profit from this "article". So I do not consider this "article" a conflict of interest.

You don't, but wikipedia does. (See WP:COI, to which I've referred you several times). Stop removing the tag.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:02, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I regret strongly the English rules of Wiki and I am going to remove the English version giving only a reference to the French version. It is a shame for people who do not understand French and I sincerely think that is not the good way to broadcast the contents of this major Encyclopedia to all the world. But before erasing the English version could please provide me with your supervisors email addresses. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neotu (talkcontribs) 00:12, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You don't need to delete the article, just stop removing the WP:COI tag. As for a supervisor, like yourself and just about every other editor at wikipedia, I'm a volunteer. If you think I've acted improperly, feel free to take the matter to one of the pages recommended at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution (and please do me the courtesy of notifying me if you do.)--Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:21, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You should understand that this WARNING on the top of an article is not the best thing to introduce a content. I do not want to argue and bring this matter in DISPUTE RESOLUTION I have better things to do with my time. Regarding your "notifying you", I do not understand exactly what you mean by this, knowing that you do not appear under your real name but under the alias FABRICTREMPE. I think that is the big difference between you and me, I am not afraid to appear under my real name and I am not afraid to give my email address in my profile. So I hope that you will be able to measure the difference of attitude between you and I. Gerard Dalmon —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neotu (talkcontribs) 00:56, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

FabricTramp you really like playing the police. Are you some time more cooperative, helpfull and encouraging with other people?. You cannot avoid adding systematically this CONFLICT OF INTEREST warning. I was just in touch with Arakunem see in his Talk page our conversation regarding NEOTU. Please read attentively his last comments. I am asking you now to delete completely the NEOTU GALLERY article if you think that it does not fit Wiki standards. Thank you in advance. Gerard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neotu (talkcontribs) 22:26, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I have read the conversation you mentioned -- I need some time to formulate a reply that will express what I want to say in a polite, constructive way. But I do want to ask you to read WP:CIVIL, particularly Wikipedia:CIVIL#Engaging_in_incivility in light of your last two remarks to me.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:37, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Once again if you think that I am wrong, not polite, etc... Please feel free to delete the all article so I won't have to deal any longer with you. Please also read our conversation since the very beginning and do not forget that this article is my FIRST one so my FIRST steps in Wiki. I still think that your attitude was not very cooperative and very frustrating for a beginner. Sorry to be so frank with you but it is my manner of saying what I think and feel. Probably too French for you? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neotu (talkcontribs) 22:47, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fabrictramp I have a suggestion: why you do not start being a contributor to Neotu Gallery article. I am ready to help you. That could be, if you are interested in Design, a fabulous opportunity to start learning something about contemporary furniture design and help me in my task or other articles to be created in this field. Best, Gerard —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neotu (talkcontribs) 23:23, 18 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I was directed here by Neotu after I readded the COI warning to the article. It's clear to me that the tag should stay up there as the article WAS EDITED with a conflict of interest. The WP:COI guidelines state quite clearly that it is impossible to edit an article about an association that one is affiliated with in a non-biased manner. The fact that the article exists alone can be a conflict of interest, as it could go against Wikipedia's notability guidelines. The COI tag should stay up as long as substantial information that was placed by the user Neoto remains on the page and is not cited by verifiable third-party sources. Themfromspace (talk) 18:55, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just let me tell you something. You probably understand that I am French. In French "a conflict of interest" (un conflit d'intêret) has a very strong and bad meaning. This meaning is very insulting to me. It suggests that I am making facts which are not real, that I could hide others, that I am in a way lying or at least not objective and bringing contents to increase my prestige. It is not my goal. If it were, I am also a designer, I would have put my name with the other designers who used to work with Neotu. I am working on this article as an historian gathering information from ex-secretary of Neotu, ex-clients, invitations cards of the exhibitions, magazines, books (that I am gathering and some time buying) to build an article that I imagine no one could have started. Neotu ended in 2001 I thought that was time to trace its history. I would like other contributors able to help me or to bring more matter to this article or to check the information. Why not to help me. Why not if you know how to do to ask other contributors to participate to the article. I understand your policy. I am just asking you to understand my point of view. What I suggest in order to solve this "problem" is to add in the warning that I found and put on the top of the article something more explicit that states that "sofar this article is written by a contributor who had a major role in the creation of Neotu gallery and this article requires other contributions or verifications by other experts". If you agree with this suggestion feel free to write this WARNING as you want. Please avoid "conflict of interest". I am sure that your English will be 1000 times better than mine. Thank you. Best. Gerard PS: I hope that you notice that I did not try to hide myself. I use the name NEOTU as a user name and put my name + email address in the profile. I could have pretended to be someone completely different with no bound to Neotu. This was not my decision.

Neotu, this is the English Wikipedia. This is not the French Wikipedia. By the definition of WP:COI, you do have a conflict of interest if you are at all affiliated with the Neotu gallery. Why the tag must stay has already been established. Themfromspace (talk) 23:08, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate your help on Threefold death! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kjaer (talkcontribs) 17:52, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You are most welcome!--Fabrictramp | talk to me 17:58, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy, thought you might like to know about this, [1] which seems like an odd edit. Did AWB hiccup or something? Cheers, Paxse (talk) 16:02, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I'm dense today. What seems odd about it? The article was uncategorized, so an uncat tag was added. It's just a tad longer than a stub, so AWB removed the stub tag. Would you like me to add an expand tag to it instead? I see you reverted my edit. No biggie, but I still think it was valid.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 16:04, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for lightening response. I'm flattered you and/or AWB think it is better than a stub. The Cambodia stub tag gave it the only cat it had 'Cambodia Stubs'. So, removing the stub tag removed it entirely from the Cambodia cat tree. I agree it needs additional cats, but AWB killed the only pussy in the shop - just to add an uncategorised tag. Funny no?

Grange West

Just a friendly note on Grange West. I declined the speedy because there was definitely enough context to identify the subject.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 15:29, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the note Fabrictramp, you're definitely right. αЯβιτЯαЯιŁΨθ (talk) 20:33, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I wasn't sure if I should have removed it or not, sorry about that. I plan on slowly picking away at that article, but I have a lot of other things going on right now. is there a time limit to when it will get deleted if I don't show notablilty? Thanks! Ibanez Guy (talk) 22:45, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Time limit? Not per se. But any editor could come along at any time and propose it for deletion on those grounds. If that happens and it gets deleted for some reason, let me know and I'll userfy it for you so you can still work on it. HTH!--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:51, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Request to view deleted content

A friend told me he had posted an article re: Ranlyn Hill or Ranlyn Tilley Hill. I have not seen the article and am not aware of the content. It has been deleted. May I please view/have access to the deleted language? Many thanks- Ranlyn Hill —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.177.64.60 (talk) 03:03, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The article was under Ranlyn Tilley Hill, but was deleted because it didn't meet the guidelines of Wikipedia:Your first article. Unfortunately, if it's a friend of yours who posted the article, there is also a problem with Wikipedia's conflict of interest guideline, and I don't restore or userfy such articles. However, you may find an admin who will at . --Fabrictramp | talk to me 14:04, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Fabrictramp

Hi - why did you delete my entry on Pearl of the West? Does a Courtesan need to be dead before she is of interest? Monkepuzzle8 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Monkeypuzzle8 (talkcontribs) 00:15, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No, she definitely does not have to be dead. But she has to exist and be notable. Looks like she might exist, but notable? --Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:21, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tristan Bowen

Thank you. --JonBroxton (talk) 18:31, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

De nada. Kind of a IAR deletion, but it made sense.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 18:33, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
To clarify (in case you were wondering) - Bowen has just signed for Los Angeles Galaxy from its own junior ranks, but has yet to make his debut for this (or any) professional team, and therefore doesn't meet the soccer player notability guidelines. Someone created a circular link to the Galaxy page from Bowen's link, which is really pointless, so I just took it upon myself to ask for the delete. When Bowen makes his debut next season he'll get a proper article. --JonBroxton (talk) 18:41, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I did a bit of basic research on him and came to that conclusion. The other choice was to remove the link to him on the Galaxy page to avoid circularity, but without more info about him on the Galaxy page the redirect there wasn't helpful to the reader. No real speedy category for that type of page, but deletion made the most sense.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 19:03, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A wiki-salute

Hi there FABRICTRAMP, VASCO from PORTUGAL here,

I saw your October 28, 2008, welcome message on PEP10's talk page. I surely do appreciate that gesture but, let me (sadly) say this:

Once upon a time ;) there was a user called PARARUBBAS whose MODUS OPERANDI and "contributions" consisted in: gluing sentences and paragraphs into just one, removing brackets but, much much more serious, removing all external links and references, at the same time he did contribute to some articles, although in a shabby way...To prove myself, here is a list of his deeds before he was blocked (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Pararubbas) and, so you can see he was duly (over)warned, here is his talk page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Pararubbas).

What is the connection you ask me? My fellow user, this PARARUBBAS "contributed" almost exclusively on articles regarding PORTUGUESE FOOTBALLERS and CLUBS (in 99,999999999% of the cases) and, as you can see from his cont.history, he wrote NONE, WHATSOEVER, edit summaries, not a single word, which is absolutely the same user PEP10 does (here is a list of his contributions http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Pep10), as well as several anonymous IPs he has too. As PARARUBBAS was blocked, the same person registered under a new name (PEP10) and continued his deeds. This new account has been warned too, and this is also why i dropped you this message, because i witnessed your friendliness towards him and know it will not be repaid with an honest hard work.

Hope this "vocal rambling" was of no incovenience, keep up the good work,

Have (a) nice week(s), VASCO AMARAL - --217.129.67.28 (talk) 21:16, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I try to always send a friendly welcome to new users if their first edit isn't vandalism, along with links to help send them down the right path. If they choose not to take that path, they'll have only themselves to blame for what happens. :)--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:46, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Strange redirect

I admit I know zilch about anime, but the redirects looked like gibberish to me and I couldn't find any references to them in the articles. If you think they're OK, please accept my apologies. Gonna brush up on my anime in the meantime. --PMDrive1061 (talk) 00:55, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I know less than zilch about anime, but I did a search in the Dio Brando article and Za Warudo is mentioned in the infobox. Seems to me like it would be a logical redirect.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 01:00, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Guns 'n' Bombs deletion

Fabrictramp, I went from the producers wiki page to his groups page and found that the page had been deleted. I don't believe this removal was a appropriate, the group (Guns 'n' Bombs) are well known artists in the electronic music scene, and are among a small group of fast rising electro groups from the North America. I've just seen them play in Ottawa/Canada while on tour and these guys are currently located in L.A. The deletion reason seemed to be a result of the band not being note worthy... just thought I would suggest trying a google or youtube search and see the hundreds of results for the group... as well as the large number of their remixes available on some of the top music blogs on the net. I appreciate your time! Thanks : ) dseal84 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:dseal84 10:00, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the reason for deletion was that the article didn't assert their notability well enough. Granted, there were two sources in the article, but they were more of the genre of blog posts than professional reviews.
Take a read through WP:MUSIC and see if you think you can get the article to a point where it meets that requirement. If you want to take a stab at it, let me know and I'll be glad to userfy the article for you so you can work on it. Note that I won't be around much until Monday -- if you want it sooner than that, Category:Wikipedia administrators who will provide copies of deleted articles has a list of admins who will provide the copy for you. (Point them to this discussion so they'll know it's cool). HTH--Fabrictramp | talk to me 21:50, 26 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RED SIGNAL!!!

Hi there FABRIC, VASCO here,

Remember that "user" i warned you about after you welcomed him to WP? PEP10? Well, after 4 days warming up, he is on the prowl again, nothing noticeable so far (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Pep10), but it won't stay that way...

From Portugal, cheers and keep up the good work,

RED SIGNALS!! Part 2

Hi there FABRIC, VASCO again,

On second glance, there is something noticeable about this "contributor"'s return: check what he did in RICARDO OLIVEIRA's article (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ricardo_Oliveira&action=history), in 3 edits at about 16h00...Pityful.

Hi there FABRIC, just wrapping it up by saying:

PEP10 aka PARARUBBAS has been reported here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Football) and here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents).

I fear we may have a language issue here, as I'm not 100% sure what you are asking me for. If you want me to add to the Lola Pagnani, I'll have to decline, as I'm not particularly interested in the subject, nor do I have any sources that aren't available to everyone else. You might try asking at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers. HTH. --Fabrictramp | talk to me 21:38, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I apologize for being badly me express train. Information are authentic in how much a contact of Lola Pagnani they are on its facebook, I only wanted an orthographic correction from a user of English mother language.

Then therefore could that notice be removed?--Lodewijk Vadacchino (talk) 22:23, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Are you talking about the {{primarysources}} tag? The article doesn't have any independent, reliable sources that show her notability. (IMDb isn't considered an independent source). You might want to read the links and see what's needed. HTH.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:29, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
But she has told me for everything, she has written it on imdb. she is log in Imdb, on facebook she has told me this way! There are no problems. Can I remove the template then? Thanks still!--Lodewijk Vadacchino (talk) 22:36, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If I understand you correctly, you are saying you got all the information in the article from the actress herself? That wouldn't show notability. Please read WP:BIO to see what's needed.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:44, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Speedy deletion of Maitland nova scotia

A tag has been placed on Maitland nova scotia, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Grika 20:27, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion request

Odd for a couple of reasons. There was a "Maitland nc" article by this user (pumkinjuice) that was CSDed but I don't see it in his contribs. Also, when I tried to CSD the new article "Maitland nova scotia," somehow this redirect page got tagged instead? Grika 20:44, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That might have been a timing issue -- you were doing the CSD right when I moved it to Maitland, Nova Scotia. Which is now deleted, except, of course, that there really is such a place (it's a village in East Hants, Nova Scotia), and it was an editing issue, not a deletion issue.
Still can't find an AfD to justify a G4, though.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 21:16, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I've now created a valid disamb page at Maitland, Nova Scotia, created one of the two articles listed there, and fixed as many incoming links as I could fix confidently. Please drop me a note before nominating if you think any of these need to be deleted. Thanks!--Fabrictramp | talk to me 21:58, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
