User:Rimzanms

Hello, User:Rimzanms, whose user page move you reverted half-an-hour ago, has moved it again. Unfortunately, a double revert is needed over a redirect, as he changed both the article space and the username. Can you please move User:Mohamed Rimzan back to User:Rimzanms where it belongs, along with his talk page? Thanks, Altered Walter (talk) 15:58, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

He's now moved it again, but this time to ~~User:Mohamed Rimzan~~ Mohamed Rimzan in mainspace. Altered Walter (talk) 16:07, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh dear. I will try to fix it. - Mr X 16:08, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, and please note correction above. Altered Walter (talk) 16:09, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I've just realized that you're not an administrator - I'll ask one to do this, as admin privileges are needed to move over a redirect. Thanks anyway, Altered Walter (talk) 16:32, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK. That explains why his user page is not acting like a user page. - Mr X 16:37, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

SPLC criticism

I reverted a couple of your additions of "on the right". Now, I don't know much about Ken Silverstein, but he doesn't appear to be on the right. He writes for Harper's Magazine, which is listed in Category:Modern liberal American magazines. St Anselm (talk) 01:20, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. I've made a revision with attributions and a direct quote so that the sentence in the two SPLC hate list articles accurately reflect both sources (Harpers and CS Monitor) added by Badmintonist. - Mr X 01:33, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

FYI

I changed out your deletion notice to Horserider2 (talk · contribs) as when I checked the deleted article, it wasn't an attack page as it didn't attack anybody. I think this is just an enthusiastic younger editor. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 19:25, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. I didn't regard it as an attack on a person or group, but rather an attack of the subject itself. In Twinkle the balloon help for G10 says "Page that serves no other purpose than to disparage the subject or some other entity." The policy page is a little more ambiguous. I guess the automatic Twinkle warning for that category is a bit harsh. In any case, I agree that the editor was probably an enthusiastic youth. - Mr X 19:40, 19 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion tag removed?

After you tagged the article Cyrus Aggarwal for speedy deletion, the author User:Ragwal removed the tag. I put it back on. Does this count as a war? If it does, could you give me some advice? Thanks, BlueRoll18 (talk) 05:19, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No, you did the right thing. Editors are not supposed to remove speedy deletion tags from article they create. This editor is editing from at least two accounts, apparently trying to write an autobiography, and has violated a few policies already. - Mr X 05:26, 20 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

About the reviewed page you unreviewed due to copy violation... sorry about that. Didn't notice it. -_- BlueRoll18 (talk) 02:05, 21 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

re: I have unreviewed a page you curated

What did you mean when you said that you "have un-reviewed it again" in Sin City Deciples? The incident happened when I removed a CSD G2 tag that I placed because at the time it appeared to be such, and then just seconds after, the author fixed it. I have never used page curation (if that's what you meant by "curated"), and as such don't know how to use it. Thebestofall007 (talk) 00:10, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That message is generated by the page curation tool. It happened yesterday, so I don't remember exactly why I marked it unreviewed. I think that when you removed the CSD tag, the article was automatically marked as reviewed, then around the same time I marked it as unreviewed, probably because I did not see the references. If you are using Twinkle, there is a setting that will allow pages to be marked as reviewed if certain tags are added (and apparently if CSD tags are removed). - Mr X 00:36, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, OK. Yes I was using twinkle. Thebestofall007 (talk) 06:01, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Everything and Nothing: But Referring to Something for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Everything and Nothing: But Referring to Something is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Everything and Nothing: But Referring to Something until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Thryduulf (talk) 19:32, 23 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You didn't do anything wrong. The page showed up as reviewed before the CSD A7 showed up on the page, so I though it may have been accidentally reviewed. Ideally, we would be able to disable the "notify reviewer that the page was unreviewed" message, since it frequently causes these kinds of miscommunications. - Mr X 04:24, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for wasting 5 minutes of my time. In the future, please do not send me such notifications. i know how to review an article and you do not need to double check my work. Thanks and goodbye.

Speedy deletion declined: Vera Thomas

Hello MrX.

Isles of Shoals Light

Sorry for leaving this hanging -- I took a break for breakfast.

It occurs to me, though, when you see a very experienced editor -- more than 100 new WP:EN articles, including 77 on lighthouses and 130,000+ contributions to WMF projects -- starting a new article, that you might hang back a couple of hours before tagging deficiencies. . .

Ooops! Sorry. I must have neglected to set the new page patrol filter to "Were created by new editors". Please forgive my blunder. - Mr X 15:06, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not really a blunder -- no harm done. On Commons, I do a lot of new page patrol and occasionally have the same general kind of problem. On Commons, though, new pages from experienced editors don't ever show up in NPP because they are auto-patrolled. . . Jim - Jameslwoodward (talk to me • contribs) 15:35, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited August Röckel, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Waldheim (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Speedy deletion contested: Communist Party (Serbia)

Hello MrX, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Communist Party (Serbia), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The articles Communist Party (Serbia) and Communist Party of Serbia refer to two separate parties with similar names. They are not the same party. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 21:31, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm Hettore93, and i'm new and i don't speak English fluently. First of all I'm so sorry for having delated your contribution on Same-sex union legislation, but i've noticed you put it in the wrong place. The Yukon's case that you inserted was dated 2004 and between two israeli cases, which were dated 1994 and 1995. Eventually I delated your contribution because ten slots after you can see in 'Canada' that Yukon case is already present. Ok bye, and I apologize again.

Hmm. I'm a little confused. I reverted an edit by an IP editor User:93.37.199.246. Perhaps that was you, not logged in? In any case, there was not edit summary, so it looked like vandalism. I think you can continue with your intended edit, but I recommend you leave an edit summary so that your edits are not mistaken for vandalism. Best wishes. - Mr X 20:02, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

TWFanmily and WP:AN/I

I've mentioned you in a thread at Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents#TWFanmily_and_User:Ellielouux.

Hopefully Ellielouux follows the advice I gave here. --Hammersoft (talk) 22:41, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well, so much for AGF. Ellielouux has reverted again. --Hammersoft (talk) 22:43, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see that. I agree with making it a redirect, by the way. - Mr X 22:45, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, but Ellielouux keeps edit warring into their preferred version. Oh well. --Hammersoft (talk) 22:48, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I know. I think they may need a time out. I have retagged the article as CSD A7. An admin should be along shortly and may make it into a redirect. - Mr X 22:50, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Voskos Greek Yogurt

Hi MrX,

I believe you edited the page I made for Voskos Greek Yogurt. How can I edit it so that it doesn't sound like an advertisement and it doesn't get deleted.

Thanks, NGenerales (talk) 23:59, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article should no longer be speedily deleted, and most of the advertising language has been removed. There still needs to be reliable sources (newspapers, magazines, books, news web sites) to establish notability. Did you read all of the linked help articles in the welcome message at the top of your user talk page? That would be a good starting place, then you can ask questions in areas where you need further help. - Mr X 00:12, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MrX,

Thank you for your input. You have been very helpful since I'm still new to wikipedia and most of this coding language is foreign to me. I have a couple more questions if you don't mind:

1. Is there a way I can temporarily remove the page from wikipedia until I fix all the edits and add additional sources?

2. The page is only visible right now in the search bar when I type in "Voskos Greek Yogurt" with case sensitivity. Is there a way for the page to show up when someone for example types in just "voskos" with lowercase?

Thanks again for your help, NGenerales (talk) 00:36, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I'm happy to help. There is no need to remove the page, because it is stable enough so that it should not be speedily deleted. If it were nominated for a normal deletion, it would still take seven days and a discussion before before it would be deleted. Wikipedia editing is an incremental process, so you should simply edit the article as you find additional sources.

I have created what's known as a Redirect page from Voskos to Voskos Greek Yogurt. It will work whether or not the first letter is capitalized. You can see the underlying markup here.

Best wishes - Mr X 00:48, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi MrX,

I was just curious why you deleted Voskos's mission statement from the page I created. Don't you think a company's mission statement would be an integral part of their "history"? I would like to add it back if possible. NGenerales (talk) 03:39, 1 February 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by NGenerales (talk • contribs) 03:35, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because this is an encyclopedia, as opposed to an advertising web site, we avoid slogans and mission statements by convention. See WP:MISSION. Cheers. - Mr X 03:46, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion declined - United Nations Office of the High Representative for the Least Developed Countries, Landlocked Developing Countries and Small Island Developing States

Improbable though it looks, this is not a hoax - see its website. In case it was an elaborate hoax, I found my way to this starting at the main UN website. I guess the moral is, when you get into the international bureaucracies, nothing is too improbable to be true. Whether it's notable is another matter, but a real UN agency probably is.

YCRBYCHI

Essentially I think this article needs to be completely redone. It should be just a bare description of the organization. The comments may be cited, but they are almost entirely from left-leaning political sources. It is the equivalent of letting every anti-Obama article be posted and referred to on the President's page. Let's keep the opening two paragraphs and delete the rest for now. We can always add more. This is in the interest of being fair to both sides (both for and against the organization).

Tbwhitham (talk) 22:17, 1 February 2013 (UTC) tbwhitham[reply]

Help

I submitted an article about this foundation and information sharing about a genetic disorder that the foundation supports. It was tagged for deletion and before I could respond to the deletion tag it was deleted. The entire process took about 10 minutes while it took me two hours to create the article. The response was apparently ignored and I would like to know what has to be done to submit this article so that it meets the Wikipedia criteria. There are thousands upon thousands upon thousands of articles similar to this one’s nature, much less credible, no sources, no websites, yet they exist.

HELP?!? user: Nicholas.wade 15:25, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately Wikipedia has very strict policies on copyright infringement. Your talk page response did not address the issues. It would have been a good idea to read the six helpful tips at the top of the article creation window when you created the article. Especially: "Content that violates any copyrights will be deleted" and "Before creating an article, please read Wikipedia:Your first article"

Intrasomatic model

See the wikipedia fringe noticeboard, this article Intrasomatic model is self published in one book, by a fringe paranormal author. It is not notable, and has not been reviewed in any scientific publications etc. Fodor Fan (talk) 04:39, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure how you determined it was fringe, but your edits were broader than just that one source, and you also introduce what I would consider POV content. Please let's discuss it on the article talk page. - Mr X 04:42, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The author Anthony Peake is a finge non notable paranormal author (search wikipedia archives, his own wikipedia article was deleted last year becuause there are no sources for him), he is not a scientist, and his "model" exists in a self-published book only, it is not notable and has not been reviewed by the scientific community, hence why it should be deleted, the same as the other one I deleted, which is also a fringe book published by a paranormal author and has not been reviewed by the scientific community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fodor Fan (talk • contribs) 04:47, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm happy to discuss it with you on the section I started on the article talk page. I would like to involve other editors. By the way, aren't you supposed to be retired? - Mr X 04:52, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The accepted scientific view (like for all paranormal phenomena) is psychological, not endorsing crackpot paranormal ideas. I think the pseudoscientific ideas should be deleted.. even those subtle body ideas should go. I mentioned the theory on the Fringe noticeboard, so other experienced editors will get involved. I am retiring for four months at the end of this week, and I think that Intrasomatic model article with get an afd. Becuase it is not notable. :) Fodor Fan (talk) 04:59, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We should not delete pseudo-scientific views, if they are notable. Of course we should also not present them as scientific, at least not in Wikipedia's voice. Again, verifiability, not truth. If we were discussing cures for cancer, the standard would be higher. OBEs are largely a poorly understood phenomenon/experience, both to mainstream and paranormal researchers. - Mr X 05:17, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Having looked, the subtle theory is actually notable, so that will probably stay as that theory has been around over 100 years and mentioned in many publications. But the Peake theory is not notable, and I am not getting a single internet hit for Intrasomatic model, this may well be a case of original research. Fodor Fan (talk) 05:21, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. - Mr X 05:27, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fred Phelps & Al Gore

The three edits that I made to the Fred Phelps article were reliably sourced and notable. Those edits do not violate NPOV. You have not provided any reason for your removal of my edits. All you stated is that you find them not to be neutral. That is a statement of your opinion. You did not provide what reasons and why you found my edits to be not neutral. I will go back and put my edits back in place. Going forward I will not discuss this topic on either my talk page or your talk page. These are not the correct forums for this discussion. If you want to discuss your reversal of my edit without providing a reason then you should take that discussion to the talk page of the article itself. You can find that talk page here: Al Gore's Talk Page. Have a good day!--ExclusiveAgent (talk) 16:18, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The message that I left on your talk page was the closest canned message that I thought described the reason why I reverted your edit. If you look at the edit summary, I also mention that the content that you added is WP:UNDUE and the article is not about Al Gore and Fred Phelps Jr. This raises the question of why you believe adding content about Al Gore and the Clinton's to the Fred Phelps article was a beneficial edit, which I agree should be discussed on the article talk page. Note also that I am not the only editor who objects to the content that you added. - Mr X 16:30, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you MrX. You have made my point exactly. You should not have written on my talk page, you admit this yourself.

Welcome to the world of collaborative editing. Please review WP:TPG. Bye now. - Mr X 17:48, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that you directed me to review a certain page indicates that you could not find a specific reason that your brought up the Phelps/Gore issue on my talk page. It also proves that you have no reason to be discussing it your talk page. I will repeat if you want to rationally discuss the Phelps/Gore issues then I would encourage you to go the Phelps talk page and engage in mature conversation over there--where Phelps/Gore should be discussed.--ExclusiveAgent (talk) 18:00, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like we've got a WP:COI or WP:AUTO on this recreation of a previously deleted article. I seconded your prod but the WP:SPA removed it. Will you be taking this to AfD? That is a move I would support. Qworty (talk) 22:18, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're probably right about the COI and AUTO, but at least there are references now. I've unreviewed the article so that we can get a few more eyes on it. I'm disinclined to take it to AfD myself, at this point. - Mr X 22:24, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Sydney Convicts Logo.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Sydney Convicts Logo.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:17, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Need help understanding cleanup tag you added to Westbrook Public Schools

Hi MrX! Back in in December you added a cleanup tag to this article, but I don't quite follow what the issue is. I started a discussion on the talk page at Talk:Westbrook Public Schools#What needs to be cleaned up??. Would you please join the discussion or illustrate what you think the issues are, or point to an exemplar article? Many thanks in advance!--Arg342 (talk) 14:00, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The article just needs to be fleshed out a little and written as prose, rather than a bullet list. If you click on the link in the box at the top of the article you will see a layout guide. An example of a similar article that is more complete is Bridgeport Public Schools. You can also click on the category links at the bottom of the article to find more examples of school district articles. WP:MOS may also be helpful. Best wishes. - Mr X 14:29, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

OK, let me see what I can do. Thanks for the feedback.--Arg342 (talk) 14:55, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of \Doub's Mill

A tag has been placed on \Doub's Mill requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to an article talk page, image description page, image talk page, mediawiki page, mediawiki talk page, category talk page, portal talk page, template talk page, help talk, user page, or user talk page from the article space.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Sergio Michel

Greetings MrX,

From what I understand, the previous deletion requests were removed because it was flagged for an insufficient reason. I re-added the speedy deletion requests because it satisfied other criteria for speedy deletion.

Specifically:

1) The article is a recreation of a previously deleted article (section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion)

2) Article was created by blocked user. Three accounts have been blocked by admins already, including Sergio Michel's personal wikipedia account (section G5 of the criteria for speedy deletion)

- AuggiePaoli (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- RockFanUK (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)
- SergioMichel (talk⁺ · tag · contribs · deleted contribs · logs · filter log · block user · block log · CA · CheckUser(log) · investigate · cuwiki)

3) The article does not indicate why its subject is important or significant (this is a lower standard than notability) (section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion)

"An article about a real person, individual animal(s), organization, web content or organized event that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant, with the exception of educational institutions. This is distinct from verifiability and reliability of sources, and is a lower standard than notability."

I don't mean to step on any feet but I am just confused that this wikipedia entry is still up even though it meets CSD criteria. Let me know what you think as I think it would be appropriate to re-add the speedy deletion tag but with your feedback on the above first.

-- Wikibronx (talk) 19:05, 10 Feburary 2013 (UTC)

I understand the history of the article, however the statements "Sergio Michel appeared on Telemundo's Corazon Valiente as a hitman named El Rubio" and "Sergio Michel is the host and announcer of Celebrity Boxing" are both assert significance. To put it plainly, the assertion of significance is he was on TV.

Remember that CSD is a narrowly construed criterion for deletion without a broader community discussion. It's a short cut to be use only in very clear cases. Generally, if even one other editor (excluding the creator or sockpuppets) oppose a CSD, that's the end. It should not be re-nominated. The next logical step is AfD where, if your reasoning is sound, other editors will form consensus to delete the article after due discussion. I hope that helps. - Mr X 19:37, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I appreciate the response. Please note that the other editor that is opposing the CSD is the original author of the article (In fact I did not realize this until you stated so in your opening paragraph of his talk page). I've been going through his cited sources/references just to verify that they are in fact substantiating any information he wrote in the page. There were a few red flags. He has cited youtube videos to prove that he played a role in a TV show. However the clips from the show illustrate that this was a minor and brief non-speaking role. I don't believe that a minor nonspeaking role in a TV show assert significance. I'd imagine that would open the flood gates for all actors who attain a small bit role in a film or tv show to publish a Wikipedia page about themselves based on an insignificant role.

His second assertion of being a host for a Celebrity Boxing match isn't demonstrated by his cited articles. At best, his cited article indicates he was hired for a single match that ended up never materializing (per his own cited reference). There is nothing in his referenced URL that substantiates that he was hired as a host on an ongoing basis. Author of the article continues to revert my changes when I edit the article to reflect that fact.

I don't mind an AfD, however I feel that the aforementioned points above already demonstrate cause for CSD. -- Wikibronx (talk) 20:54, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've given you the best advice I have at the moment: Take it to AfD, or continue tilting at windmills. The choice is yours. - Mr X 21:15, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I could not see the reference because, when you start a new a line of text with a space like you did here ^, some of the text flows off the screen and can't be seen (see original version: [2]).

I have removed your BLP-prod because this is not a living person - according to the article he died in 2003. I don't find any confirmation, though and I suspect it's a hoax. I will probably PROD or AFD it after I do a few more checks. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 15:38, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Mr X

Thanks again Mr X - I was eager to contribute some information on 1970s uk comic strips as they are quite specialist subjects. I saw a link for the Teahouse and will definitely be exploring - so many best practices to take into account. Any advice & tips from people is much appreciated. Cheryl 14 feb — Preceding unsigned comment added by Muffeiy (talk • contribs) 20:38, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Mr X - as you know I'm new to Wikipedia.

I hope I can help in a small way, and apologies for any mistakes I make. Probably I am one of the older people registered.

My main speciality is UK comics mid 1970s to mid 1980s and certain titles after from my days as a collector (so should be able to add more detail and references to these pages). I also have an interest in politics (late 1980s onwards), business and history (specifically 16th century, 17th century, World War 1 and World War 2 - so hope I can contribute in a small way to these areas.

Should I try and get adopted on Wiki? It sounds like a good thing.

Hi Cheryl (Muffeiy) - Welcome to Wikipedia! You may indeed benefit from being adopted, or you can just start reading some of the help tutorials and start with some small edits on existing article so that you can learn about wiki formatting, article layout and citing references. Of course you can always ask questions if you need help. I spent a couple of years editing and reading before I had the courage to create an article from scratch, and when I did, I went through the new article review process. There are people here of all ages, from all around the world, with diverse backgrounds, so I'm sure there's a place for you to fit into the community. I recommend taking it slow and learning from your mistakes. Best wishes. - Mr X 00:25, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Annata

declined speedy deletion as "multinational corporation" asserts significance, a lower standard than noatability. Dloh cierekim 19:59, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What is significant about being a multinational corporation when any company with a web site can credibly make such a claim? I think that's an overly flexible-interpretation of CSD A7. - Mr X 20:07, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

An assertion is an assertion. Any assertion of significance that is credible. As you say, subject could credibly claim international scope and still not be notable. Determining notability is more difficult than recognizing a claim of significance. There is always WP:PROD where an assertion of significance exists but the subject is not notable. If notability is in doubt, there is AfD. Of interest is that I tagged it as being of questionable notability and that tag was removed. So perhaps anothe user questions the lack of notability? At any rate, if the subject proves not notable, we can delete it under prod or AfD. Dloh cierekim 20:54, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I understand. It's always a judgement call and the process is imperfect. Thanks for listening. - Mr X 21:01, 13 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

link removed on Pachino

Hi MrX, the link that you removed, link to a web portal that represent an unique font of info about Pachino's history, culture, people and consistent with the contents of the wiki, most of the other links showed. it is not a spam.So i think that, that link can be appropriate.

Magellano2013 (talk) 09:22, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed all of the extraneous links that promote tourist destinations, local sports teams and news portals. Wikipedia articles should not be used as link farms (see ELNO). If the content on those web sites is encyclopedic and directly related to the town of Pachino, then that information should be added to the article with reliable source citations. In other words, we generally should not send readers to other web sites for information about the subject. - Mr X 14:07, 14 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Vince Williams (ice hockey)

Hi, just wanted to say that the page you nominated for deletion via WP:BLPPROD, Vince Williams (ice hockey), was a perfectly good article apart from its lack of referencess. I added refs, categories, and an infobox, and untagged the page. BlueRoll18 04:43, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It may have been a perfectly good article, but BLP's requires sourcing for very valid reasons determined by community consensus. Also, articles, especially BLPs, should be sourced before they are published to the article main space, as noted at the top of the new article edit window: "When creating an article, provide references to reliable published sources. An article without references, especially a biography of a living person, may be deleted." - Mr X 04:51, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, I understand you can't fix every article you find with a BLP issue. Thanks. BlueRoll18 05:01, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
