Notablilty Issue on Bantams Trek

Hi,

RE - Bantams Trek - Have added some more references, there are more, and more info to be added, have tried to make sure it is in keeping with Wikipedia standards, feel free to advise on any issues as only my second page addition to Wikipedia. Have tried to remain within the guidelines. Page seems however to have disappeared on the search, which seems a little quick as there is plenty of information. Not only that, now a number of other reliably sourced links. Telegraph & Argus link is also the paper for the 6th largest City in the UK, so not small fry. More info about everything on my talkpage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Easybizsites (talk • contribs) 00:48, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Professional football clubs x 4 and press of 6th largest city in the uk, what more do you need? Easybizsites (talk) 00:53, 2 May 2011 (UTC) Please state, a little confused :)

This article appears to fail WP:EVENT. I have created an AfD to get a wider view of the event and better eyes on the article. ttonyb (talk) 00:58, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

It is not an event, it is ongoing. If it was a one off event, or just a series of events i could understand your reasoning. However this is not, it is a group set up directly to help the bradford burns unit, which does work for the world helping research into burns and it is backed by bradford city football club. This is very relevant to the bradford burns unit, bradford city football club and the city of bradford. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Easybizsites (talk • contribs) 01:08, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

EJ Topping is back

Hello, Ttonyb1 …

It looks like EJ Topping, Author (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) has been recreated after you requested its speedy deletion under another name … this piece of vanispamcruftisement looks like it's an autobiography, or else the work of a serious fanboy … in any event, I'm afraid it will take a WP:AfD to get rid of it since a WP:PROD will probably be contested by the author … are you willing to take the lead on this?

1) I shouldn't have to ask but do not ever attempt to threaten me again. 2) You should have enough intelligent sense and experience editing and updating Wiki articles to know how to do research enough that you can see my references can be verified. They have been. Obviously, you didn't check all the sites and references I included. Check again. 3) I don't care what your arguments are against what I've stated above. I will not read or respond to further accusations, comments, or manipulations of the article I created so don't bother. Just do your research, remove the alerts, and everything will be peachy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Erkman27 (talk • contribs) 01:42, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

User talk:Erkman27

I hope you don't mind me using your talkpage for a bit, because, as you say, the discussion was beginning to devolve more around you and Erkman might not like us ignoring him on his own talkpage. As to WP:VANDTYPES I’ve read the relevant section on copyright violations and extending my good faith towards him it does not appear that this user is aware of what he is doing. As indicated by his comment "I actually have no idea what you're talking about" he is at least made aware that his actions are inappropriate, and so this is more of a behavior issue than mere vandalism. I know that some people can be thickheaded sometimes, but you should persist in attempting to communicate your thoughts to him, somehow. If you wish to continue to try and correct his actions I suggest using the more appropriate forums like the administrators’ noticeboard or the copyright contributor investigations page in order to more effectively communicate your problems, rather than heading straight to WP:AIV. Furthermore, I see that you have been placing a template on his talkpage and continually reverting on the article; what I would have probably done in your place would have been to contact him on his talkpage and explain to him why what he is inserting is a copyright violation. And if it doesn’t get resolved, ask an uninvolved administrator via WP:ANI to look into it if I can hopefully accomplish the same thing.

Hope this helps, :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 04:47, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for moving this here, but I do not agree with your assessment of the situation. There is nothing wrong with adding user warning templates to a user's talk page. If you note only the first template that was placed on the user's page without an additional comment – all others were placed with comments attached to the templates. You talk about continuing to try to communicate with user, well I tried for over an hour to get through to the user, but he continued to ignore the issue of copy violation. I do not understand what you mean, "this is more of a behavior issue than mere vandalism". Vandalism is a behavior. Look, I understand you concern that this might be seen as biting a new user, but this was not a issue that I jumped allover the user without trying to advise him of the problem – and yes, {{uw-copyvio}} is a valid way to accomplish this. Why would I wish to use the administrators’ noticeboard or copyright contributor investigations page, this was clearly a copy violation followed by vandalism. If you notice, this has been resolved without needing to ban the user, but only after he opened up to talking about the situation. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 05:11, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Fine with me. I'm just concerned if we end up scaring a good-faith contributor away, more so than inviting a bad-faith one. But it seems that with him at least, it seems resolved. Cheers, :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 06:39, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi Ttonyb1. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Diann Blakely, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers and review the criteria for speedy deletion. Particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion, proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion.

wiki page for Duane Johnson

Hi, have a question regarding how many third party links are required for this page? I show several newspaper articles and a couple magazine articles one of which was a two page spread with images. Also appears to be a thesis on there that per the guidelines states is an approved document as it has peer review. I'll work on the intro as I was reading up on it and can see what it needs. The movie info as far as I can tell only appears on IMDB and his website. Is IMDB acceptable to reference for that section, I know it's not a true third party source?— —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacobtweis (talk • contribs) 02:40, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your message. Let me see if I can answer all your questions. The number of references is not important; however, the the quality of the source is important. The newspaper articles I could find were very limited mentions of the article subject. I tried to find the articles Express News and KS City Star and was unable to find any mention of the articles or the article subject in the archives. I believe a thesis is a reliable source in the case of a doctoral thesis, regardless, the thesis does little to support the article. IMDB is not a reliable source by itself. ttonyb (talk) 03:43, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Abinash/Avinash Patra

Hi. If this guy turns up again - and he's persistent - don't bother trying to sort his articles out, simply G4 him per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Avinash Patra (with a "v" not a "b"), and report the author(s) to join the ever-growing list of socks at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Avinashkrishnadasa. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 09:29, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Ah, I see from the history you did realise that was a G4. He is a pain as a persistent socker, but an entertaining character: his book "Lord Curzon Exposed" is visible on-line, claims to be "one of the most widely read Historical Literature of all time in this Present World", is marked "First published in Great Britain in 2010 by Oxford University Press An Imprint of British Board cast service, UK". It seems to be bits and pieces copied from all over, ends with the statement "This book has been written as a guide for those who are compelled to purchase a horse in the absence of skilled assistance. The author, Avinash Patra, a veterinary surgeon, is well qualified to advise... " and is datelined "EDINBURGH,OXFORDSHIRE.. UK" I would love to know how he got the Times of India to report that he had been invited to the wedding. JohnCD (talk) 10:45, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

This guy is amazing. I forgot I had run up against him in the past and started by treating him with WP:AGF. As I got further down the road I realized the absurd nature of the article and did some digging. ttonyb (talk) 16:21, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

CSD for Reggie Dale Frazier Jr prefix:Talk:Main Page

There's something weird about Reggie Dale Frazier Jr prefix:Talk:Main Page. Your CSD says the material came from this, but that site is simply a copy of Proof (rapper). Looks like someone either grabbed the facebook entry and changed a name or grabbed a WP article and changed the name.

Ought to be deleted in either case, but I'm not wholly comfortable deleting it as a CV of a facebook page, which itself is a copy of material that can be copied (although should be attributed).

In short, I'm happy deleting it, but I'd like some thought on the right criteria.--SPhilbrickT 23:13, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

My thought was the article was copied and the name changed. Perhaps deletion as a hoax? ttonyb (talk) 23:24, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Alternatively, you could try this url instead? :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 23:34, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

Not sure how that helps. The article purportedly is about someone named Reggie Dale Frazier, but the material is either copied from a Wikipedia article about a different person, which makes it eligible for deletion as a hoax, or it is a copyright violation of this although that appears to be a copyright violation of a WP article, which would mean it is not material under copyright.

I'm leaning toward hoax, but I can't delete it as a copyright violation of material that doesn't have a copyright.--SPhilbrickT 23:44, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

The url has substantial duplicates to make the WP hoax a copyvio, see Duplication Detector for the http://www.thisis50.com/forum/topics/proof-the-most-underated which has its own ToS for copyright. This was from a quick google check, and I'm sure you could find out more beyond that. :| TelCoNaSpVe :| 23:52, 17 May 2011 (UTC)

TeleComNasSprVen, I don't think we are on the same page. You are demonstrating similarity between a page about Proof and the Reggie Dale Frazier page, but I think that's simply because someone ripped off the WP material in the WP page Proof (rapper). If you are trying to show that Proof (rapper) is a copyvio, then that's a different subject. If you are demonstrating that the Reggie Dale Frazier page is a copvio, we need to confirm that the material at http://www.thisis50.com/forum/topics/proof-the-most-underated is under copyright. I don't think it is. I don't think Reggie Dale Frazier is an alternate name for Proof, I think it's some kid who wants a page with his name and Proof's bio. If someone wants to change the CSD tag to hoax, I'll delete it. If you want it deleted as a copyvio, we need evidence that the material at http://www.thisis50.com/forum/topics/proof-the-most-underated is under copyright, and I don't think it is. (I know, the presumption is that material is under copyright, but there's reason to question it. Sorry if it sounds like I'm being a pain, but I don't intend to delete material as a copyvio when I don't think it is a copyvio.--SPhilbrickT 00:22, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

...and what is the credible assertion of notability? Working 8 jobs in 8 years? Being an author? Starting a blog? ttonyb (talk) 22:23, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

There's a difference between notability and importance/significance. The A7 criterion is only for articles that make no claim of importance/significance. Notability is not a factor in deciding whether or not to use the A7 tag. The article does assert importance/significance, but not necessarily notability, for which articles should be deleted/discussed through the PROD and AFD processes. Logan _Talk ^{Contributions} 19:37, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Cykxincorp Group of Companies

Pertaining the article that you deleted, I never had the opportunity to show you why it should not be deleted. One main reason is, if this article was branded promotional, why isn't the article that I followed of a similar record company ie. used as a guideline(which 'is' and 'still is' on Wikipedia) not branded as "promotional". Before a correction was made on this article, one of your associates pointed out to something that I wrote "uncompromisingly creative" as the bad words that killed the article. What is the difference between what I have used and what someone have used "fiercely alternative" (and by the way it is still on Wikipedia)? If you're going the way of promotional, then they both are, but if you're not then they are not, but rather both descriptive. Right?

Looking up my history I realised that this same thing happened to my previous article several years ago. Back then I didn't bother, but this time I'm interested in the truth. So please some answers to some of my questions is the least I can get.(Tafal2525 (talk) 12:06, 23 May 2011 (UTC))

It appears you are not questioning the fact that the article is "promotional" in nature, but rather you are concerned that another article is allowed to remain on Wikipedia. Unfortunately, other stuff exists. I cannot comment on the other article since you have not provided the name of that article. As far as creating the article, I would suggest creating it in a sandbox in your Users space and when it is completed move it to the mainspace. If you need any help with this, please let me know.

Erik Brunetti page

Hi ttonyb1,

I was asked by Erik Brunetti to help clean up his page. I've made some edits to the content so that the article provide more of a neutral point of view. I think because of the short nature of the article it does not require any additional in-line citations (currently 2). I've cited the major claims that do not require reference links. I will be adding an image of Erik's work, provided from the man himself to help clean up the look of the page. Please let me know what you think, and I'll make the proper adjustments.

Thank you.

Hello Ttonyb1. I noticed you, or another editor created a Requests for Adminship page under your name, and I was wondering as to what the status of that request might be. If you are still intent on running for adminship with that request, please do let me know; otherwise, I'll go ahead and delete the RfA page for you in about a week or so from today. FASTILY ^(TALK) 08:32, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Yes, I still plan on running. Thanks. ttonyb (talk) 14:49, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Grube & Hovsepian

You keep removing the Biography from page: Grube & Hovsepian...Why? It is a biography for the music duo. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PressGiant1984 (talk • contribs) 23:01, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

As indicated on the tag on your talk page, it is a copyright violation, a copy of the text in http://www.armadamusic.com/artist/grube-hovsepian/. ttonyb (talk) 23:04, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Notability is not in question per Ttonyb1's incorrect marking

Tony: The templates you put up are being erased because they are incorrect. The person the entry describes has no issue meeting Wikipedia's notability requirements, for example, since she is a featured contestant on a national network show on Bravo TV. Please check your reference links. thanks! Learningsocal (talk) 23:54, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Please show me where this is a criteria in WP:BIO, WP:N, or other Wikipedia notability criteria. ttonyb (talk) 23:57, 30 May 2011 (UTC)

Deletion Request

Hi, Why do you keep recomending this article about "Harris Rehana" deleted? I've added one neutral source, 1 direct source from the Harris' website? Same goes for "Hina Sultan", she's a host of one of the most popular shows on Pakistan network, I've given a reference of her channel's website and yet you keep asking it to be deleted. Is there anything that I'm not doing right or what? Regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Attractivue (talk • contribs) 12:17, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Wikipedia articles must establish notability using reliable sources. Both the articles in question are not supported by verifiable, independent, reliable source. Without this neither article meets the notability criteria in WP:BIO of WP:ENTERTAINER. ttonyb (talk) 14:33, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi in the case of Harris Rehana, its got info from IMDB and Perfectblend.net which is a site from Neighbours (TV Series) confirming Harris' past credits. How is this not reliable? In the case of Hina Sultan, look up the link, its a major TV channel! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Attractivue (talk • contribs) 21:19, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Not spam

I wrote on the Death of Caylee Anthony's talk page about the book citation I posted there. It is not spam. I added the book about the case under External links, and you've removed that too, calling it spam. I don't understand how including a book about the death of Caylee Anthony can be considered spam. Thank you. AuthorAuthor (talk) 21:02, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Given the book was written three years ago prior to the trial and subsequent update of information, the book adds little if anything to the article. ttonyb (talk) 21:13, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

The Shalom Show on tv

Dear Ttonyb1, I ask that my article please not be deleted. May I ask you to remove that risk, simply because the article is correct and true and may just need more editing and References. Could you please assist? I have not checked this article for weeks due to health and recent surgery, but I’m back and would like to ask for your assistance in correcting this article please. I apologize that I probably am not communicating with you the correct way. You wrote to me a while back that if I have a good secondary reference, I should send it to you and you will add it to the article; Could Dr. Abraham Fischler, President Emeritus of Nova Southeastern University serve as a secondary reference source? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham_S._Fischler He would be glad to. How do I submit him to Wikipedia as a secondary reference source? The Shalom Show features in depth interviews with leaders in many fields, also with politicians from left and right. It just had Presidential Candidate Speaker Newt Gingrich on the show: http://www.allvoices.com/contributed-news/9020820/video/79716175-newt-gingrich-on-shalom-show-with-richard-peritz-on-current-issues-and-israel . Would this article and the Speaker’s team serve as a reference? In a Google search the Shalom Show brings up many articles, including Fox News. Could the following serve as references: http://nation.foxnews.com/religion/2011/02/03/rep-allen-west-says-muslim-congressman-represents-antithesis-america-s-founding- Could YouTube serve as a reference? http://www.youtube.com/user/SHALOMshowTV Even in Pakistan: http://pktube.onepakistan.com/www.shalomshow.com/ MSN: http://tv.msn.com/tv/series-episodes/shalom-show/ AOL: http://television.search.aol.com/search?o_q=shalom+show&s_it=topsearchbox.search&q=shalom+show+richard+peritz www.wn.com (WorldNews): http://wn.com/Amb_Yehuda_Avner_interviewed_by_Richard_Peritz_on_Shalom_Show_841 http://www.world-tour.co.il/2011/05/harris-rosen-on-shalom-show-838-with-richard-peritz/ http://www.therightscoop.com/allen-west-speaks-truth-on-islam-israel in the United Kingdom http://www.jltv.tv/profile.php?user=ShalomShow2010 http://www.bnaibrith.org/opeds/Kohn11192010.cfm Bnai Brith is a big international organization: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%27nai_B%27rith Official website link is correct, however the External Website link was not.

Many thanks! Josephn18 (talk) 20:56, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Your RFA

Sorry about how your RFA turned out. You'rr a strong candidate with a lot of good work under your belt, and the issues raised are easily fixed. I've full confidence if these issues are addressed, you'll have no issues next time around. Best of luck, don't let it get you down too much. We all make mistakes, RFA is often a learning experience. Learn from it and move on, and you'll do just fine. All the best. :) Steven Zhang ^{The clock is ticking....} 01:12, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Steven, thank you very much for your comments on the RfA and your words of encouragement. You have my deepest respect and appreciation. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 01:22, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Good job keeping your cool...that shows balls

Takes some poise to put yourself out there and deal with a bunch of jerks on the other side of a modem interrogating and judging you. And not flip out at them. That is an aspect we need in moderators.

P.s. If you write some articles for our readers, I will support you. I don't understand all the A7 stuff, so you are safe (FROM ME) on that. Just think that our eventual product is content (not process) and that content is read by a lot of people all over the Intertubes who don't even have usernames. You don't have to be some Steinbeck like writer...just good to have at least some deeper exerience in writing articles. It's expected in school and work and all, so is not that big of a deal. And it introduces you to an aspect of the project (collaboration with users) that you don't see in the pure "moderator" type activities.

Anyhow...hang in there, man...TCO (talk) 01:42, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks... ttonyb (talk) 18:00, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Hi Tony. Sorry things did not turn out the way you expected. I'm nevertheless convinced that if you take the comments on board you will easily pass a future attempt.

BTW: For statistical purposes, could you pleas consider re-editing the closing statement to "Withdrawn by candidate", as "Unsuccessful" makes it look like an RfA that went its full term and failed. Cheers. --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 01:48, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Your comments are much appreciated. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 18:00, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

I would like to encourage you too. My neutral was leaning towards a support, and one dubious A7 speedy nom does not mean much at all. But I think if you write some articles it will get more support from others. I like to see a candidate try out a lot of things, even if they specialize in say NPP. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:13, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks and I will move an that direction. ttonyb (talk) 18:00, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

RFA

Tony, I wanted to thank you for accepting my nomination. I am sorry for the way it turned out but I still look up to you and I still picture you as an admin. Let me know anytime if you'd like to give it another go, I'm more than happy to nominate you again.--v/r - TP 02:04, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

You have my appreciate for the nomination. It was an honor to be nominated. Thanks... ttonyb (talk) 18:00, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Recent RFA

Hey, I did not see your RfA until it was over, but wanted to wish you all the best. In my experience your efforts at NPP have been exemplary. Regards! VQuakr (talk) 03:24, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind words. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 18:02, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Huh, you withdrew that one quickly, Ttonyb1, I'm surprised. I haven't read followed it, but I hope you did so because you found some concerns valid, not because you were discouraged by them?
Anyway, just wanted to say that yours was an RfA I was planning to participate in. I remembered you from way back (2008 probably) when I brought a couple of concerns to your talk page, and I know I wasn't always satisfied with your reaction, but whenever I noticed your edits in recent months it was always with appreciation. If you're thinking about giving RfA another go down the line and want an opinion in advance, feel free to let me know!
Cheers, Amalthea 16:55, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I will certainly let you know. My best to you. ttonyb (talk) 18:00, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Hina Sultan Deletion

Hi Tony

I've added two more independent links confirming the information to be correct. If it still doesn't qualify then delete the article if you wish.
