Talkback

Hello, Yunshui. You have new messages at NickCT's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Help........

Morning! I need your advice (again) please. I'm worried I could get blocked for edit warring on Poodle and I'm not sure if I've followed the correct procedure and what to do now. The article had been protected in mid-March after a series of edits then an editor seemed to come along and after a confusing series of edits returned it to an older version. I tried asking for advice on the Dogs Project talk page but didn't get any response (it's not especially active). So after three weeks, I reverted the article back to what seemed to be the stable version and left a note on the talk page. Lo and behold within a couple of days an IP came along and put all the pet pics back in and removed referenced material making it the same as it was before. I have reverted again and left a note on their talk page but I think it's shortly going to be changed again.....what should I do? SagaciousPhil - Chat 07:55, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What you've done so far is basically correct - you aren't presently in violation of the edit-warring policy, so don't worry about that. However, further undiscussed reverts would get you into trouble... It's always awkward when another editor starts reverting your changes and refuses to discuss them, but you're doing the right thing in trying to open a dialogue. If you have no joy - if they refuse to engage - you've got a number of options, ranging from engaging dispute resolution to reporting the other editor for edit warring. My suggestion, if the reverts continue and you can't get a conversation going, would be to open a request for comment on the talkpage; this will draw more attention from other editors and will hopefully enable a clear consensus to be established. Yunshui 雲‍水 08:15, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I'll wait to see what happens next..... SagaciousPhil - Chat 08:29, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Looks like I'm going to have to take this to RfC; the same IP changed it back again with no contact/explanation/edit summary - this time also removing a couple of pics that had been added to the gallery by another editor, who has now undone the IPs change. On another matter, where does Writ Keeper's script for the orange box go? Is it the same place as the DYK checker code etc? The little red number is almost impossible for oldies like me to see on an iPhone (although the copious emails do give a small clue!). SagaciousPhil - Chat 08:20, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, I'd go with an RFC (they're pretty easy to set up, even if you've never done one before). Writ's script goes in your vector.js page - User:Sagaciousphil/vector.js - I recommend just adding importScript("User:Writ Keeper/Scripts/orangeBar.js");, rather than copying the entire text. It works brilliantly - it's actually an improvement on the OBOD, since it tells you who left the message as well. Yunshui 雲‍水 08:57, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Totally Tae Kwon Do Magazine Article Deleted

Hello, Yunshui. You deleted a very raw article I had in rough draft format, not prepared for submission. I feel the article was deleted prematurely. Similar articles exist for similar publications, such as Tae Kwon Do Times and Black Belt. Is this something I should expect to occur when I have an article in rough draft form without any citations yet whatsoever? I believe that creating the rough draft on Wikipedia itself allows me to edit the article from anywhere I have access to a computer, i.e. work, not just my laptop at home. If I must create the article in another manner, I'm happy to do so. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mike.e.swope (talk • contribs) 02:58, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mike. The best place to work on drafts like this is via the Articles for creation process, as you've done with Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Bok Man Kim. The page on Totally TKD was deleted for two reasons:
  • Firstly, it made no claim to significance - there was nothing in the article to suggest that TTKD was a noteworthy magazine. From the text, all that the reader can deduce is that it's a online PDF magazine (not print published, which means that it could very easily be a fanzine knocked up on someone's home PC). A claim to existence is not the same thing as a claim to importance - why is TTKD any more notable than, say, some 2nd kyu judoka's personal blog?
  • Secondly, (and in conjunction with the above) the article appeared to exist purely for the purpose of promoting the magazine - the text wouldn't have been out of place on its own website.
In addition, the article lacked any citations to independent sources - without such citations, the page stands no chance of survival, even if it doesn't meet one of the speedy deletion criteria. You will need to provide references to third-party, reliably published sources which talk about TTKD in some level of detail. Yunshui 雲‍水 07:01, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Script finished

I don't know how these Echo pings are supposed to work, so I'll try just posting here. I'm not sure if you were being facetious in your request to me or not, but I've finished the script; it's at User:Writ Keeper/Scripts/orangeBar.js. It's cookie-based, so you need cookies enabled in your browser for it to work. Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 15:46, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Akitsugu Amata

 — Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:04, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Need some input...

I'm kind of torn over an article right now. Long story short, in 2012 Victoria Foyt self-published a book that was seen as racist and got a ton of coverage over the internet backlash. This was initially covered in its entirety in her article, but has since been spun off into its own article. I'm really unsure whether or not this really needs its own article since it really only received coverage for the controversy- which is summed up already in Foyt's article. The book didn't really gain any reviews in reliable sources and the award it won isn't really notable at all per Wikipedia's guidelines. I remember people sort of debating this somewhere and it was seen as a fairly dubious award, enough to where it wouldn't even contribute a little notability. So... do you think this should be redirected back to the author's page? That's what I'm leaning towards, although I wouldn't entirely mind it having its own article so the plot section could be fleshed out. My other big concern would be editing in either extreme. The original version of the article looked to be a little pro-Foyt and was filled with fan gush and OR, but then I'm also afraid of vandalism since Foyt's article was pretty beseiged by every idiot with a keyboard that thought they were funny for calling her racist. I know that neither is really a reason to delete/redirect an article in the first place, but it's something that might sway people one way or the other. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 08:36, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yes, I remember Save The Pearls... The spin-off article is a bit of a coatrack, but whilst the book's really only notable for the racism thing, my take would be that it got enough coverage in the process to warrant a separate page. I'd rather see a neutral page on the book than an extensive "Controversy and criticism" section in a BLP (and it's certainly preferable to a standalone "Save the Pearls conroversy" article), so my (mild) preference would be to retain it as a separate article. I'm not taking an especially solid stance, though; I certainly wouldn't kick up a fuss if you decided to go with a merge and redirect. Yunshui 雲‍水 08:54, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Eh, I think I'll leave it for now. I'm kind of leery, but I'll think on it for a while. There is some merit to having it, but also merit to redirecting it. I guess I'll see what happens with the page? It'd probably be a good idea to keep it on watch for a while, if you're interested. I'm slightly curious to see if the people who created it did so on behalf of Foyt's company. I noticed that one of the editors also created a page for Foyt's publishing company and have only made edits adding the book to various pages. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 10:55, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Rajesh Kotecha

Hello, I understand the reasons why you deleted the page Dr. Rajesh Kotecha, but I would like to know how is that possible according to your principle of non advertisement, that many pages exist on ayurveda centers and for ayurvedic doctors, which are also promotional in your sense. We only put a neutral biography on him, is that advertisement? we dont think so. I have seen many doctors putting on Wiki similar pages, you can check please. Justice and fair methods should be applied to everybody.

Thanks for your response! regards Lakshmianoop — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lakshmianoop (talk • contribs) 12:25, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The existence of other, similar pages is not an argument for retaining a page with the same problems - each page is judged on its individual merits. The current version in your sandbox is something of an improvement, although it still needs a bit of editing to bring it up to standard. I recommend submitting it via Articles for creation to allow for review and advice before it goes "live"; you can also then be certian of it ending up in the right namespace (rather than moving it around between the Talk, Project, Help and other namespaces). To submit via AFC, simply add the tag {{subst:submit}} to the top of your sandbox article. Yunshui 雲‍水 06:59, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Completing peer reviews

I'm supposed to do peer reviews for two of my classmates and I can't figure out how to technically do it... can you point me in the right direction? Eparness (talk) 13:34, 3 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You'll have a bit of a job, since you've been far-and-away the most productive student so far, and I don't think else has requested an offical peer review on their articles. My suggestion would be to do what the students on my other course did; leave a review on the article's talkpage with an assessment of what's been done well, what could be improved, what you'd like to see expanded and so on (an example of their approach can be seen here). You can also pitch in and add to the articles as well, if you see fit. I'd recommend giving your thoughts on The Poor of New York and Alla Kigel, since these have seen the most student activity; although if you can give your classmates some ideas on how Costume design and Broadway theater could be expanded you'd be doing them a favour.

Seeking for Guidance

Hi Yunshui,

I had submitted an article on 'Cullen Investments', which was declined on 17 April 2013. Here's the link for your reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Cullen_Investments

Previously the article was declined on 31 March 2013 due to insufficient references considering which the reference list was updated considerably.

This time the reason for rejection is 'promotional stuff'. I'll be grateful if you can help me with the editing and successful submission of the same article. Additionally it will be good if you can point out a few lines in the article which sounds like promotional stuff.

Thanks

Ingoddess2805 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ingoddess2805 (talk • contribs) 09:51, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ingoddess2805. You've had a few bits of good advice on your talkpage, which I can only really echo. Basically, the way to fix the problem is this:
  • Gut the article of any information that is sourced directly to Cullen Investments or its subsidiaries.
  • Locate additional third-party sources - newspapers, books and the like - that mention the company: this ought to get you started.
  • Rewrite the article using only information that can be derived from those sources. This includes information that does not paint the company in the best light; you will, for example, need to mention the unsuccessful court case against Jowanda Holdings.
  • Add minor, uncontroversial information sourced from Cullen itself; this would be things like staffing numbers or site locations.
To be honest, there may not be enough on the company to warrant a separate page; most of the information I've located in a cursory search would be better used expanding the existing article on Eric Watson (which could also use some attention).
As for examples of promotional wording, the overall tone is very much that of a corporate brochure, but some particular highlights to watch out for are things like:
  • "offers a range of farm management and technology services to improve the productivity and profitability"
  • "has a widespread property portfolio"
  • "one of the country’s more exclusive private retreats"
  • "carries out an extensive research"
  • "The achievements are depicted by the successful receipts of its drafts"
  • "specializes in fresh New Zealand cuisine"
and so on. Basically, if a sentence sounds as though it could have come from Cullen's marketing team, it needs to go. Yunshui 雲‍水 06:56, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Your opinion !

Hello Yunshui! I hope you are doing good and kind as always ! I would like to ask your opinion again on the question which I asked a few days ago in Teahouse about User space and Article space. Please have a look at this page User:Mwinyimkuu . IMHO, I believe this is a Biodata about the person. My first step will be to inform the person that wikipedia is not a job hunt website ? I would like to know if it is a right step. Ghorpaapi (talk) 09:28, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That'll suffice.

Yunshui 雲‍水 13:10, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
It might be a result of a seminar/speech from an important person in the university, who might have mentioned his own BLP on wikipedia. It might be a viral source. Ghorpaapi (talk) 13:13, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think it's that - one of them specifically stated that he was being trained. Well, hopefully the deletion of several of their pages will have prompted their (irritatingly uncommunicative) tutor to review Wikipedia's guidelines; hopefully they can come back and be a little safer and more policy compliant. Yunshui 雲‍水 13:16, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Purple Strategies

Hi Yunshui! Thanks so much for reviewing and moving my draft article for Purple Strategies live. As you might have seen from Huon's note on the AfC entry, I have a COI here as I wrote the article on behalf of Purple, so I'll make sure to add a "connected contributor" template to the Talk page. I was wondering if you could help me with a small update to the article: adding the logo to the infobox. I've uploaded it but prefer not to edit articles directly where I have a COI.

The file is here: File:Purple_Strategies_logo.png Would you mind adding this for me?

Hello Yunshui, I was just debating with myself whether to bother you - again - when your name popped up on my screen, so fate made the decision for me! The FCI, which is sort of the European Kennel Club, has uploaded all of it's breed standards as word documents. How do I include a link in the dog breed info boxes as the old link is just showing as an error? If you go to a google search like this and click on the third result given, that's when it downloads the word doc; but how to I put that in the English Setter info box? Help, please!

Confusing

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/DavidYork71

The comments at the bottom of the page no longer make any sense

One part of the text suggests that something is confirmed (what was confirmed?), and then a contradictory item is provided...

The duck test was important to ascertain one way or other - and the layout of the comments made so far are not clear.

So it was not David Yorke71 after all that? If that is what is being said, I wonder if there are reviews of whether sock producers methods might disguise their tracks? sats 08:59, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

HI! Inquiry about a question at Teahouse that you replied on.

Hi Yunshui. I was wondering if you would have any objection to my deleting the teahouse Q&A thread "Looking for newbies to cooperate against obstructive editors!". My feeling is it was purely disruptive. Gtwfan52 (talk) 03:16, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

None whatsoever; I very nearly did so myself (had it been anywhere other than the Teahouse, with its slightly more generous ethos, I would have). Yunshui 雲‍水 06:43, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Teahouse

Taking inspiration from you, I joined the Teahouse as a host and answered to one of the questions. However I feel that the answer is just too complex. Would be great if you can give me a few tips to give the answers. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ Talk Email 07:58, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Vaibhav, long time no see! Answering questions at the Teahouse is pretty much like answering questions anywhere else, with the following extra provisos:
  • Be super-friendly (you should have no problems with this!)
  • Try not to reply with a load of links to WP:RANDOMSTRINGSOFLETTERS (a few well-labelled links are okay, though)
  • Keep answers as concise as you can
  • Always leave a talkback (I find the talkback scripts handy for this)
If you haven't already found your way to the Host lounge, there are some useful pointers there, as well as helpful links.
As regards your answer, everything you said was correct, but it might have been a bit overly specific - the questioner asked where to go next if he wanted to help with translations, not for instructions on how to translate interface messages, so you gave him more information than he needed. Often, it's better to provide the minimum amount of information so that the user can get started with what they want to do, rather than explaining every nuance. For example, we quite often get asked about how to use references - whilst we could respond with a detailed explanation of how to use refnames, refgroups, multi-column references, Harvard citation style, the various citation templates, the reliable sources policy and so on, it's much more helpful to say: "Put the citation between <ref> and </ref> tags, and add {{Reflist}} at the bottom of the page."

Thanks. It is indeed because the Chinese characters don't appear in the canonical form of the title; adding them would therefore make it impossible for the software to resolve to the right name. Thus, anything using DISPLAYTITLE has to use the actual page name. It works on your page, Dennis, because although the formatting's different, the actual text of the title is the same.

To be honest, I was more curious than anything; my vanity doesn't run to working out the CSS coding for such a thing. (Dollars to doughnuts Writ Keeper's written just such a hack already anyway...) Yunshui 雲‍水 18:14, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We should use it to replace those tired old {{uw-vandal4im}} warnings... and get Mr Neeson to deliver the block in person. I wonder if he edits here? Yunshui 雲‍水 12:50, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You deleted the page Ashiqur rahman mehrab

Sir,

You deleted my page Ashiqur rahman mehrab. It was a legitimate article. He is a current famous singer in our country and it was not a hoax or anything fake. I have worked the whole day writing it, and it means a lot to me. So can you please check back the article and reinstate it? or give specific reasons why it was taken down?
