Applications for free, full access, 1-year accounts from HighBeam Research officially open

The applications for 1000 free accounts is now officially open until April 9th. I have the account codes in my email box and we are ready to go. This week's main goal is promotion. Several editors have already done a great job of getting the word out, but there is still time to make sure people don't miss out on the opportunity. Please tell your Wikipedia friends, WikiProjects, non-English Wikipedias, and anywhere else you think people would benefit from knowing. You can record your progress at WP:HighBeam/Promotion where we're keeping track of all of the notifications. Thanks so much for your help! I'll keep you posted. Cheers, Ocaasi t | c 20:45, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

אומלו

It might have been better to transwiki the article to he:אומלו, which as this shows was almost certainly the intention of the creator.  --Lambiam 07:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good idea. I'd like to do that, but I don't understand the transwiki procedure well and I don't want to mess things up. This help page seems to be outdated. I can move the deleted content to the user space User:Gilo.12/אומלו and direct the creator to the correct location at Hebrew אומלו. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 08:14, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's maybe best. The user seems to be struggling with our wiki conventions and is apparently unaware of the existence of a separate Hebrew Wikipedia, so rather explicit direction may be called for.  --Lambiam 08:49, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. Moved and explained. Thanks for your assistance, Lambiam. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 09:10, 10 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. When you recently edited The Indiana Theater, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Daviess County (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Dobra Voda

Hi Vejvančický. I am trying to do some maintenance on Czech articles, particularly Dobra Voda. I managed to move Dobrá Voda to Dobrá Voda, Trnava District, because there are many places called Dobrá Voda. There is already a disambig page at Dobra Voda, but there is in fact only one page with this name (the others have diacritics).

What I want to do is:

  1. move Dobra Voda (currently a disambig) to Dobrá Voda, where it will continue to function as a disambig page.
  2. set Dobra Voda as a redirect to Dobra Voda (Peak).
  3. add a hatnote at Dobra Voda (Peak), such as {{Redirect|Dobra Voda|||Dobrá Voda}}.

Please can you assist with the first step; I think I will be able to complete steps two and three. Thank you. Cloudz679 10:09, 14 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, done. Please, let me know if I missed/confused something. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 07:09, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Another move request

Hi again Tonda. I wonder if you can help move another page. It is Benice. Currently the Slovak village in Martin District. However, we can see at Benice (disambiguation) that there are multiple pages with this title. Could you please:

  1. Move Benice to Benice, Martin District
  2. Move Benice (disambiguation) to Benice over redirect

I will follow up by checking what links to Benice. Thank you for your time. Cloudz679 18:34, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Stories Project

Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I'd very much like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know anyone with whom I should speak.

Thank you for your time,

Czarnowcy

The short answer is that I have no idea. The slightly longer answer: I don't think it's in Bukovina (unless it's a bad approximation of Chernivtsi, the province's capital) - it may well be in Lviv, Zakarpattia or Ivano-Frankiv oblast. Something like Cherneve, perhaps. Or even Czarnów, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, although that's a small village, so probably not. Anyway, good luck. - Biruitorul Talk 13:37, 26 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please explain why you have deleted the article.

Thankyou Dimitri Kascovic Eufa League Agent

Hello Dimitri. The article Dexter Rosales has been deleted three times by various administrators, and then protected against re-creation. The article Dexter rosales has been deleted six times and then protected against re-creation. In November 2011, I've closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dexter rosales and deleted the article as WP:HOAX. At that time, it was impossible to verify that a football player of this name exists. Please, could you provide any reliable and independent edidence confirming that this football player meets our notability criteria? (... and I don't mean evidence of this kind). If so, I'm willing to discuss it further. Thanks for your understanding. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 06:34, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. I just checked the revision that I deleted. The article mentioned that Rosales played for Valencia FC and reserve teams of other notable clubs. There was a list of external sources in the deleted page, Dexter Rosales was not mentioned in any of the links, the FIFA and UEFA link referred to Landon Donovan. The article was a hoax.

Re:Regards

Good Day,

Please feel free to call or ask for regrence : AFC Ajax Arena Boulevard 29, 1101 AX Amsterdam Zuidoost (Nl) PO Box 12522, 1100 AM Amsterdam Zuidoost (Nl) Tel.: +31 (0) 20 - 3 111 444 Fax: +31 (0) 20 - 3 111 480

- Also from what i understand (Hoax) was copied and paste on a article(Landon Donovan) Due to amateur editing. Not that it was intentionally done to copy another player. please understand that not all of us are wikipedia friendly when it come to editing a bio.

- If you can please search well. we would be going thru this back and forth to try to resolve a small issue.

i will love to send archive and documents of the player (maybe i can,? if you can tell me where). then maybe you can help me edit a reversion on the artice (Dexter Rosales) the deadline for transfer windows opens in june and ends july, the last thing we need for a club president or team operation to search the player in wikipedia and find the following....

dkascovic@gmail.com is my contact if you also will like i would send my mobile.

please understand that there a miss understanding when coming from another country and try to build something in wikipedia.

thankyou

Hello Dimitri. His alleged appearances in La Liga and negotiations with Ajax would be almost certainly noted by independent media, and they were not. The article has been deleted as a hoax, as it attempted to deceive readers using false references for the claims stated. Please, bear in mind that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and as such, it covers football players who already achieved notability or 'fame'. According to the player's blog, you seem to be his manager and therefore you might have conflict of interest. This project is not a vehicle for enhancing career prospects of your clients. Thanks for your understanding. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 06:16, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Gianluigi Quinzi

The page Gianluigi Quinzi was already deleted because it's considered as a case of WP:TOOSOON and also beacuse it did not meet notability requirements per WP:NTENNIS or WP:GNG, but now the player is n.2 in the World ITF Junior Ranking (Quinzi n.2) and he will play in 2012 Roland Garros Junior as seed number 2, so as one of the favourites! So, for me, for these motivations, the page mustn't be deleted! — Preceding unsigned comment added by RR6 (talk • contribs) 12:50, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello RR6. You are right. Our notability guideline for tennis players states: "Junior players are presumed to be notable if they have won at least a junior Grand slam title, have been in the top 3 of the junior ITF world rankings or can be shown to meet the wider requirements of WP:GNG." Mr Quinzi is currently #2 [1] of the junior ITF world rankings. I'll restore the article. With apologies --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 13:16, 28 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you remove the CSD notice?

  • Being in a WP:N do not a participant WP:N make! He is not mentioned in the articles.
  • The musical mentions hundreds of people.
  • Accrding to IMDB This is a tv actor who never got a notable part even on tv.
  • This is also an unsourced BLP all it has are semi-promotional links to non WP:RS OrenBochman (talk) 10:07, 6 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Assessment

Deletion was (I'm relatively sure, can't actually see it) righteous; starting ANI not a good idea. If an editor receiving admin action refuses to accept your appropriate explanation, it's a very good idea to cease discussion and you're certainly entitled to tell to drop the stick on your talk page, but tell them they can start the ANI thread instead of starting it yourself. Nobody Ent 20:43, 7 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

You are probably right. I have a little experience with this part of the admin work and I didn't want to sanction anyone. In my naivite, I just thought that I search for an independent assessment of my action. If I only knew... I can tell you... I would never do that again. Such a tirade :D It was the most disgusting experience during my work here. A perfect "online vomiting". Thanks gods it's over.

Hello again

Thought I'd tell you I'm around again on a limited basis. The opening notes are sounding for another round of the danse macabre when everyone on Wikipedia feels entitled to rework the findings of international law on Srebrenica - triggered by the election of the new Serbian president, alleged murderous war criminal himself, who led the opposition in the Serbian parliament to acknowledging the ICJ/ICTY findings. Anyhow while I'm around, feel free to call on me for anything. Opbeith (talk) 17:03, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Just seen you must have just had a bit of a doing-over - sorry to hear it, but bon courage. You're one of the righteous - according to me anyway, and that's what counts! Opbeith (talk) 17:08, 15 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Owen, you can't imagine how glad I am to see your message. Great news of the day :) I'm absolutely sure your presence at Srebrenica and Serbia related topics will contribute to a more neutral and overall better project. Don't let manipulators win :)
In the section above, you can see that I partially caused an ugly mess at ANI. What do you think about it? My action was a bit clumsy: I used the noticeboard (apparently intended only for serious admin interventions) for an open discussion without the slightest need to block or sanction anyone. However, the problem escalated and soon it was impossible to communicate in a normal way. I was rewarded with poison. Don't forget, I'm a member of the "evil admin" clan :D I wasted a lot of time of others, which is the saddest thing. But I keep smiling. The vineyards are healthy (so far) and my dog is successfully recovering from surgery of a large tumor. That's more important than senseless arguing through the computer screen. Today, I plan to write an article about a poem. A girl gave me a book called "Romance for a Flugelhorn". It's beautiful. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 07:10, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please don't remind me you're a member of the "evil admin clan", remember I am a reprobate blockee from the other side of the San Andreas Fault! (Just removed some previous comments here as I found the thread of the argument and it seems unwise to risk entangling you in any recrudescence.) You may have been a little hasty but in the end you were right. You are about as fair a person as I have come across at WP and in the end you should feel happy to trust to your instincts - they will usually take someone like you to the right place. Opbeith (talk) 11:05, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
By the way I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the vineyard. This is the first year ever that the vine on the balcony here has had mildew, already. Opbeith (talk) 11:08, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your kind words ... I know that my initial reply to wolfchild wasn't too diplomatic. That's because when I see cowardice, I act impulsively.
Yes, mildew is a big threat to vineyards also here in Moravia. After several weeks of intense rain, now we have tropical weather. I spotted mushrooms (the older brothers of mildew) growing under bushes of my oldest vineyard. It is a reason to panic ... chemical treatment is usually inevitable. The vineyard is situated in a valley, near the woods, which is always dangerous, especially in this period ... it suffers because of ground frost, wet weather etc. Luckily, major part of my vineyards lies on a windy hill in a nearby village, and it's a far safer place ... Any grapes on the balcony this year? Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 12:06, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Given the complete absence of flowers, I have a strong suspicion that yet again the harvest will be a light one this year. Opbeith (talk) 20:44, 16 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sushen. Wikipedia has its own rules of notability and neutrality, independent on wishes of your clients. This project is not an open business directory or free advertising space. You should avoid editing in the areas where you have a conflict of interest. See also WP:NOPAY. I'll watch your contributions. Editing of this kind (using "100% correct information" provided by a biased subject - a company who asked you to create an article here for money) is not acceptable here on Wikipedia. The content of Wikipedia articles must be backed up by independent and reliable sources. Thanks for your understanding. --Vejvančický (talk | contribs) 16:50, 26 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
