OffshoreSoluciones‎

why aren´t you interested in free speech? and why do you want to censure the researchs in argentinian economy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrucho (talk • contribs)

This is not a matter of "Free Speech". This is simple a matter that the article fails to meet the criteria for inclusion into Wikipedia. In the case of Companies, the criteria is defined in WP:GNG and WP:COMPANY. OffshoreSoluciones‎ fails to show its Wikipedia based notability by meeting the criteria using reliable sources. Take a look at the criteria in the articles I have referenced and those referenced in the Welcome message in your talk page and let me know if you have any questions. Happy New Year! ttonyb (talk) 05:05, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well i wanna know how is it that you know that its not an important company? maybe you lve in argentina?
before maqking a statement like that you should really do some investigation and check out how the econmy works in some countrys — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrucho (talk • contribs) 05:12, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Or is it that you work for the goverment and you dont want new ideas out there on the web? are you scared about what they will say in there new book? is that it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrucho (talk • contribs) 05:16, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I heard a wonderful quote today, "It is possible to disagree with someone without being disagreeable." I suggest you memorize the quote. What makes you so sure I did not research the company or have little knowledge of Argentina? As I indicated above, all articles must meet certain criteria for inclusion in Wikipedia. That criteria is based on Wikipedia based notability. I also suggest you read WP:CIVIL, it is one of the pillars of Wikipedia contributions. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 05:21, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
si tanto sabes de argentina vas a entender el español. por que no venis a vivir aca?
please explain and describe where you´ve got the information to afirm the lack of notability. if you tell me this, and you convince me i will delete myself this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrucho (talk • contribs) 05:25, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Many people speak Spanish throughout the world and are multilingual. I have many German friends that speak Spanish better than I. Regardless, I digress. It is not up to me to prove the article meets the criteria I listed above. You, as the author, have the burden of proof. The article is not notable for one reason and one reason alone, specifically, the article fails to meet the criteria in WP:COMPANY using reliable sources. I am not sure how I can be more specific than that. ttonyb (talk) 05:31, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Hi well i see that you didnt not even take the time to see that the external link n1 is the Subsecretaría de comercio exterio maybe thats not a reliable sources if its not the Trade Unterstaatssekretariat Äußere Deutschland... if it figured there maybe you woudl not have a problem with it.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrucho (talk • contribs) 05:42, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Again, I suggest you not assume anything. Both were read; however, if you reviewed WP:RS as I asked above you would have seen they do not meet the criteria to support the article. ttonyb (talk) 05:46, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
well then i think that and argentinan goverment source is good for what it asks as -reliable, published sources- But as its also posted The reliability of a source depends on context maybe for you and argentinan official goverment page is not a source that is valid. Maybe if this company figured in the Unterstaatssekretariat für Außenhandel in Deutschland then it would be considered a valid source and there reasearch was about the USA or Germany then we would not be having this conversation... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrucho (talk • contribs) 05:59, 3 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

My Article

Hello, I'd like it to be noted that my article was not a duplication of Bodybuilding , but rather an outline of the subject. Is there any way my work can be restored? (See WP:OOK) Thanks, Tarheel95 (talk) 14:33, 7 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Miguel Roman

Hi Tony. In the light of further developments of the article and the addition of significant sources, could you consider self-declining your CSD? You can always PROD or AfD it if you still feel the rticle does not meet our criteria, but it is no longer a CSD. Cheers, --Kudpung (talk) 03:09, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Warning tags query

Hi there. With regard to this, I agree that it's an annoying editor, but I thought that non-IP editors were allowed to edit their own Talk pages, the logic being that removing the warning is in effect an acknowledgement that they've seen it? Best wishes DBaK (talk) 18:35, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You could very well be right. I am not sure, but I change to follow that premise. Thanks for pointing this out and my best to you. ttonyb (talk) 18:39, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I could also very well be wrong ... but I did have a vague feeling that there was something along those lines. If I was a proper Wikiperson I suppose I could go and look it up ... Have a very good Saturday, best wishes, DBaK (talk) 18:50, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lucas Abbott

hi, i just created the lucas abbott page and it's up for speedy termination. i apologize, i have no idea what i'm doing here. can you please explain how i can add a reference so i don't get my page terminated? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Whorah (talk • contribs) 06:12, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

First of all , please sign your comment using four tildes ~~~~ . References are used to support statements made in the articles. For instance, if you make a statement that the moon is green, the reference must support that comment. In the case of the Lucas Abbott article, if you say he is the world champion X in the United States, the reference must support that he is that. A reference to the world or to the United States does not support he is the world champion. A valid reference for that would be a newspaper article or independent website that supports the statement that he is the world champion. All references must meet the criteria in WP:RS. If you have any questions, please let me know. ttonyb (talk) 15:34, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much ttonyb. I truly appreciate your help, as well as apologize for being slow at this. I will continue to search articles, and will post references. Thank you once again Whorah (talk) 19:30, 9 January 2011 (UTC)WhoRah[reply]
My pleasure...Are there any articles about individual? How about support for awards? Is he ranked somehow in a professional association? Let me know if I can help. ttonyb (talk) 19:35, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Yes sir, there are articles from a newspaper called "The GatorTail Times" written by a fairly well known man named John Callum who covers big events in Florida. He just wrote about the tournaments that the individual won, concerning the individual, and his success. They are currently being processed on a credible website, however they are only on facebook at the moment, which is not a reliable source. They will soon be featured on credible sites, hopefully within a few days. I know there are at least 2 articles concerning his main titles. Hopefully the website in which the articles will hopefully be posted are a reliable source. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Thank you very much again!! Your truly helping me.

Bruno Osimo stub

Hello Ttonyb1, This author, Bruno Osimo, has written the most read online translated translation course in the world, his influence and notoriety are not contested at least in Europe and here are some of his books:

I don't understand why a very small article about a notable scholar in Translation science should be eliminated in English when wikipedia admits is in other languages. I am a University Teacher, in South America, and my motivation to contribute here to this modest article is just a peer-recognition of the quality of the work of Mr. Osimo. Other notable professional of the field can also intervene in favour of this article, which need to be improved but not deleted. --Comptrad (talk) 12:40, 9 January 2011 (UTC)--Comptrad (talk) 12:47, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article fails to meet the criteria for inclusion using reliable sources. It appears to fail WP:BIO and WP:CREATIVE. I cannot speak to the inclusion of the article in other projects; however, it may be better supported in those articles or it might be that the article in those projects should be deleted as well. ttonyb (talk) 15:41, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Bruno Osmo article

Please explain how this article about Bruno Osimo a candidate for deletion. Anyway you should open a special page for the deletion of the article, so other contributors can intervene and a vote can take place. If you don't follow the procedure for an article submitted to deletion, your intervention may also appear as a form of vandalism. The books that Mr Osimo has written can be found on internet. The references are verifiable. So what are you doing? If you believe it must be deleted, follow the procedure, submit the deletion process to a vote Adumoul (talk) 18:02, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page stalker) Adamoul, Tony has expressed a perfectly legitimate reason for doubting the notability of the subject, and has applied one of our standard processes. He is not obliged at this stage to explain his action to you. Accusing him of vandalism however, using impolite tones, and removing maintenance templates may lead to you receiving further warnings. --Kudpung (talk) 18:34, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Kudpung, thanks.
Adumoul, I'll assume you have read my comment above where I explained my reasoning for nominating the article for deletion. What is it you do not understand about why this article appears to fail the criteria for inclusion. Just being an author is does not automatically make one notable per Wikipedia criteria. The references may be verifiable, but the fail to meet the criteria for reliable sources.
Kudpung is correct that this is a legitimate method to request deletion of an article. Adumoul, if you do not understand the process, feel free to ask questions or disagree; however, please remember it is possible to disagree without becoming disagreeable in tone. Being disagreeable is not in the spirit of the Wikipedia community. ttonyb (talk) 18:52, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Sorry for the undiplomatic phrasing, unfortunately that I have been in internet "vacation" during the time that you have nominated this article for deletion and I didn't log in during the week...now I will, as suggested,and if you don't object, remove the PROD deletion tag and the deletion of the article may become subject to a vote. We will add content justifying the notability of Mr. Osimo. Basically, in addition to his books and his academic credentials, he has written the only free online 10 languages translation course - in 200 chapters - available in the world, published on the site of the portal www.logos.it. It is widely consulted and his analysis are used in translation studies and linguistics, so the failure to meet criteria for notoriety appear ironic when articles about a boxing featherweight in north Korea or any unknown sport person or beauty pageant winner seem to meet the criteria. About the removal of the deletion tag, I need clarification: It is said on one hand that it is not constructive, but on the other hand that it stop the PROD process and changes the procedure. That is what I want to do... --Adumoul (talk) 23:24, 9 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You are more than welcome to remove the PROD tag. ttonyb (talk) 16:29, 10 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your opinion of events of "worldwide significance"

So you think that an amendment to the United States Constitution (the 27th and last one at) lacks "worldwide significance," but these do in 1992:

Jan. 26 - Washington Redskins win SuperBowl XXVI May 19 - A woman (Amy Fisher) shoots her lover's (a complete unknown) wife May 19 - Dan Quayle gives his "famous speech on an American sitcom May 25 - Jay Leno becomes the host of the Tonight Show

These are just examples. Yet you have things like:

June 1 - Kentucky celebrates its bicentennial statehood Sept 24 - The Kentucky Supreme Court okays same-sex sodomy

So Kentucky's bicentennial celebration is of more worldwide significance than the U.S. amending its Constitution? How many people in the world do you think even knows what or where Kentucky is? Same goes for Kentucky's Supreme Court. How many people know about that the United States has a Constitution? The funny thing is, the posting about the 27th Amendment was there already; I just corrected the date (it erroneously read May 5, 1992, with Alabama being the 38th state to ratify it.)

But, really, I don't care enough about this to start some debate on it. If in your mind Jay Leno, the Washington Redskins, Amy Fisher and the VP on a sitcom trumps the U.S. amending its Constitution (how many other countries even DO that?), go for it.Tcarterva (talk) 15:00, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rather than assuming something that is not correct, you might have asked if your assumptions about my actions were true. Basically, you could have assumed good faith. I did not say they others have worldwide significance. I said the one I removed did not. I have not reviewed the other entries in the article; however, based on your comments I agree they do not. Feel free to remove them if you feel they do not meet the criteria in WP:RY. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 15:56, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I took you at your word that you thought amending the U.S. Constitution lacks "worldwide significance." It's just curious to me as to why, with Leno, Amy Fisher and all on the same page, that you targeted the entry that I edited (but did not create), but ignored the others. Again, I don't care enough about this to bother with it. My best to you as well.Tcarterva (talk) 17:06, 11 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the speedy request, as importance was asserted--one of his films premiered at a major film festival. I do agree this article doesn't belong here, though--I couldn't find any nontrivial coverage of him, so I sent it to AfD. Blueboy96 04:43, 12 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Jesse Bonanno Submission

Hi ttonyb, If you don't mind I'd like to open a discussion as to why you feel the Jesse Bonanno article I recently created should be deleted. I am new to wikipedia and am still getting my bearings so I apoligize if I'm missing something obvious. Thanks, Musicwriter37 (talk) 00:22, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome, Musicwriter37. The reason I have nominated the article for deletion is the article has portions that appear to be copied from the website [2]. Copyrighted material cannot be accepted for use unless the text has been donated to Wikipedia or the text has been released with a license compatible with Wikipedia. Keep in mind that the text need not be exact copy, but can be a close copy. The bigger issue may be that the article may not meet the notability criteria in WP:BIO or WP:MUSIC using WP:RS. ttonyb (talk) 02:17, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Ttonyb! I read somewhere that if the site being referenced includes the text "Licensed under the CC-BY-SA license" this would grant Wiki the right to use the copyrighted material. This text is included on the http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/bonanno2 site. To view this license you can click the "read more" link under the album notes section. It's posted at the bottom of the passage.
In addition I modified the passages to acheive a greater level of uniqueness and originality. With these new changes in place would you see this article as more acceptable? If there's anything else I can do I'd be glad to oblige. I'd really like this article to be part of the wiki community. Again Thanks, Musicwriter37 (talk) 02:42, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
You are absolutely right. I have removed the CSDs and added a couple of concerns related to the notability of the subject. Currently there is no concern about deletion; however, that is not to say someone will not tag it as not meeting WP:BIO or WP:MUSIC using WP:RS. My best to you and if you have any questions, please let me know. ttonyb (talk) 05:42, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, the article does not meet the criteria, "Once the article has at least one reliable source, you may remove this tag.

Give more time to The Bruno Osimo article

The innovative aspects of Osimo's works are in the way he Articulate and develop various schools of thinking about translation and semiotics. To summarize it for a brief wiki article is not something to do in a rush.

Speedy Deletion Help Request

Hi ttonyb, I started a page for Bloginity earlier this week which is up for speedy deletion as a very short article lacking sufficient context. I have responded on the Talk:Bloginity page. I was looking for the history of the Bloginity but I was not able to find the page history to see whether there was an improvement that could have been done.

I was hoping you can help me take a look at the page and direct me how I can improve it rather then deleting it. Thanks in advanced for taking your time to read this comment. Your help is very appreciated, looking forward to your reply.(Kind regards, Knox387 04:10, 19 January 2011 (UTC))

Hi Knox387, this issue with the article is it has no content. I would suggest you create the article in your user space and then have me take a look at it. Since I cannot see the article, I cannot help you. Sorry... ttonyb (talk) 04:14, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

January 19th

Hi Ttonyb1, thanks for the speedy response. I was afraid that was going to be your reply. It seems as if someone deleted the page content while flagging it for Advertising. I have added content to the Bloginity page and was hoping you would take a quick look and would advise your thoughts. (Kind regards, Knox387 16:36, 19 January 2011 (UTC))

January 20th

Hi Ttonyb1, haven't heard from you still. How are you mate? Hope things are well. I was wondering if you will be able to provide your opinion on the page we discussed the other day. It is nominated for deletion still and I think that the article provides non-promotional, quality information that is helpful. Looking forward to your response. Thanks in advance here is a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Bloginity (Knox387 (talk) 15:21, 20 January 2011 (UTC)).[reply]

I have finally had a chance to review the article and it appears if fails to establish notability using reliable sources. The articles used for reference are not about the organization and do not support notability. Sorry, but unless the article can come up with better support it is likely to fail the AfD. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 04:03, 21 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Brother (Britpop band)

Could you explain what happened here? This appeared to be an article on a subject that we already had an article for but with different content and different sources. It seems odd that you would first redirect it to the other article rather than merging the content, and then secondly tag the redirect that you just created for deletion straight away as a "Recently created redirect from implausible typos or misnomers". --Michig (talk) 19:09, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

What happened was I messed up. I thought I had a copy of the article that I could merge into the newer one. If you can userify to me it I can continue the process. Thanks... ttonyb (talk) 19:21, 19 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Azalea Iniguez

Saw your message on Roeslerm's talk page concerning the article and your willingness to try and help the user with the afd. For what its worth I was reluctant to nominate the article for deletion, and left my own message inquiring about the work being done to the article in hopes that an reply of still working would allow me to move the article into the userspace. I'm not sure if its a language barrier or a simple misunderstanding of the way things work, but Roeslerm (talk · contribs) seems reluctant to ask for help, or to even answer simple questions/inquiries. Its a long shot, but it may be worth extending an olive branch in Spanish to see if the user is more comfortable communicating in that language rather than English; it could help us help Roeslerm with the article. TomStar81 (Talk) 05:18, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I had thought about this and had actually started to write something in Spanish. I then went back and looked at the text of the article and decided Roeslerm (talk · contribs) had not made any glaring errors in the English that was used in the article. I was concerned that they might assume that I considered them an non-english speaker and take offense, so I decided against it. ttonyb (talk) 06:07, 20 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
