Essay like Tag

Hi, I saw that you added the "Essay-like" to an article I wrote (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_in_India). I request you to explain me the reason so that I can be careful not to repeat the same in my future edits/articles and the ways and means by which I can improve the neutrality of the article.

Thanks, Akalank.

Dude, what the fuck. Why are you deleting my album page for mastamind? It's one of his legit albums..

That's an interesting way to phrase a message to someone from whom you were probably hoping for a thoughtful response. —Largo Plazo (talk) 00:34, 27 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thoughtful? You're the one removing a great article.. If there's a page for Mastamind, why can't there be pages for his albums? Makes no sense to me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jespon (talkcontribs) 05:17, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Romai Sportswear

  • This article was first speedy deleted by User:Peridon on 25 Dec 2014, following nomination by User:DGG
  • It was created again on 1 March 2015 by User:Romaiwiki , probably on behalf of the company
  • At 05.11 today DGG nominated the page for a speedy deletion
  • At 06.44 DGG nominated for AFD, but undid that edit in less than a minute (same timestamp)
  • It looks as if DGG's AFD was an error which he immediately reverted, but of course the AFD itself had been set up by the first 06.44 edit, and a bot replaced the template at 07.02
  • I deleted at 14.50

I agreed with the speedy nomination, I've blocked the spam user name, and I think the AFD was an error, so I don't see any problem with my deletion. I am, of course willing to consider any points I may have overlooked Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:56, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I very nearly deleted it, but thought it better not to in view of the previous pairing on it... I've closed the AfD, anyway. Peridon (talk) 16:09, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I had placed the AfD without noticing that I had already placed the speedy. I tried to reverse it, but I may not have succeeded in time. Thanks for cleaning up. DGG ( talk ) 18:33, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I had no problem with the deletion, I just noticed that the reason given in the edit summary seemed awry given what I was able to observe at that moment, and wanted to touch base about it. Thanks! —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:45, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Signs inviting deletion

I reckon a paragraph about the subject's infant and junior school career (if a person), or a lengthy mission statement plus a full set of profiles of the 'key people' (if an organisation), are both good indications too. Peridon (talk) 16:16, 29 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

sports hall

Now I agree that there is no need to Capitalize. But I think it should be 'halls' instead of 'hall' since phrase says 'one of the'.

Patent nonsense

From WP:CSD#G1: "Pages consisting entirely of incoherent text or gibberish with no meaningful content or history. This excludes poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, implausible theories, vandalism and hoaxes, fictional material, coherent non-English material, and poorly translated material." The Truth Behind Pancakes is not incoherent or gibberish, so G1 doesn't apply. It's really either a deliberate attempt to disrupt (G3, hoax), or there's not enough context to understand the work of fiction it's from (A1, no context.) The text doesn't show that it was made up by the author, so A11 doesn't apply. —C.Fred (talk) 03:04, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It sure fits my definition of incoherence. —Largo Plazo (talk) 07:58, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

TrackingTheWorld

Hello, The TrackingTheWorld article you recommended for speedy deletion has since been updated to include multiple references, including Popular Science Magazine and CNN to indicate the company's existence and significance in the field of GPS tracking. Please view the changes and leave a message if further items should be changed. We will cooperate and edit to avoid speedy deletion. Tlatoz123 (talk) 18:31, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, speedy deletion would no longer be appropriate. I've removed the tag. —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:33, 3 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete please

creation of the McKissy page was unintentional. Delete please. talk→ WPPilot  16:30, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, as the tag at the top of the page indicates, I already submitted it for deletion. —Largo Plazo (talk) 16:31, 4 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

ERC Institute

Hi Largo Plazo,

Firstly, I would like to thank you for reviewing the "ERC Institute" page.

I notice that the page I created "ERC Institute" has been recommended for speedy deletion by you. The writing was factual and neutral, leaving out emotional verbs and superfluous description of the institute. The page has been modeled after other Private Education Institutes in Singapore - PSB Academy, EASB East Asia Institute of Management. On top of that, the references and citations are not from ERC's website, unlike PSB and EASB which uses sources mainly from their own websites. The citations and URLs used were from government and various international university websites. These universities are internationally known, and have their own wiki pages as well.

Some examples of non-neutral description by EASB and PSB:

East Asia Institute of Management provide a "comprehensive" range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes across major disciplines

PSB Academy is one of the "largest" private education institutions in Singapore

In what manner would the above 2 pages not be deemed for promotional purposes only and be deleted in the same capacity as ERC Institute?

Macwyn Liu (talk) 08:22, 10 April 2015 (UTC)Macwyn Liu — Preceding unsigned comment added by Macwyn Liu (talkcontribs)

Hello. There is no article at PSB Academy, and EASB East Asia Institute of Management was deleted about a half hour ago for consisting of chunks of text copied from Facebook. It's a fair question, but also understand that about half the time someone raises it I find that the articles aren't comparable, and the other half of the time I find that the articles raised in comparison actually do merit deletion as well! See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS for more on that topic. In any event, I wouldn't be able to do a real comparison because I no longer have access to the ERC Institute article. —Largo Plazo (talk) 10:20, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Now that the article has been restored momentarily, I'm reminded of the marketing language it contains. This includes expressing the intentions behind its existence (intentions are not factually verifiable information) in a way that promotes it: "education with a difference", "raise the bar in education services in Singapore". One wouldn't expect a reference article to mention such trivia as that it's "located centrally at 30 Prinsep Street, it is near Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station and Bras Basah MRT Station". This is clearly intended to increase the school's appeal to potential students. The rest of the article reads like a brochure for the school, not like a reference article. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:11, 10 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]


agh

hello! this guy NawlinWiki deleted my article. I asked some time to finish it but he deleted it...I do not understand in what was the problem...he said that article was promotion/advertising. Is not Bank of Georgia promotion/advertising?Gghonghadze (talk) 19:05, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't feel it was promotional when I nominated it for deletion, but he may have felt otherwise. My concern was whether the article gave a credible indication of why there would be an encyclopedia article on it. Holding companies are generally fairly anonymous anyway, I think, and having a portfolio of only three hotels doesn't seem to raise a holding company to encyclopedic status. I know you wrote that it's the largest and fastest growing holding company in the hospitality industry in Georgia, but that's a fairly constricted segment that you mapped out for it when you said that, so I wasn't sure I considered that to be an accomplishment per se. Also, being fastest growing is (a) relative and (b) temporary. It could mean that the business has experienced 25% annual growth for ten years running, but it could also mean that it's come out ahead only in recent months, experiencing an annualized growth rate of 1.5% in the last year while other businesses experienced 1.4%. —Largo Plazo (talk) 19:29, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
As I generally do when I submit article for deletion for reasons like these, I do, in good faith, run an on-line search to see whether there's the sort of substantial coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject that qualifies the subject for inclusion under Wikipedia's notability guidelines. But there's hardly any mention of it, at least that Google finds. Compare the reference list at the bottom of Bank of Georgia.
If you feel you can rewrite the article to make a better case for it, and in addition can find sources to cite that establish it as complying with the general notability guidelines or the additional guidelines for businesses, you're welcome to. —Largo Plazo (talk) 19:26, 15 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

9G deletion

Was I right in assuming it has to do with a reference or two that's required? If not just let me know so I can provide the additional information you're looking for.

It was that overall the article didn't give any sense of why this business would be listed in an encyclopedia. But showing evidence of substantial coverage in multiple reliable sources independent of the subject can make a big difference. See the article on demonstrating notability. I looked for myself and didn't find any, but you're welcome to provide some. —Largo Plazo (talk) 15:34, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

If it is no trouble, can I ask why you would delete this? I realize that I don't have sources, and I will get them, but otherwise, it breaks no rules. Thanks

Hi. Wikipedia articles can be speedily deleted if they don't credibly explain why they're significant. In other words, it should be clear why there might reasonably be an article about the topic in an encyclopedia. You say that it's "in the forefront" and "well known" but those are very non-specific descriptions and they sound subjective. It doesn't seem to me that being in the top 2,000 of any ranking is a substantial distinction, and even less so in the context of a single game out of the thousands of games that are out there. This doesn't mean that where the team is in the context of that game isn't cool, but it doesn't seem encyclopedic to me. —Largo Plazo (talk) 19:02, 19 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 16-line message format, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page TTY (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.

Speedy deletion declined: The need for gender roles

Hello Largoplazo. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of The need for gender roles, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Inappropriate essay material but not promotional per se. AFD should run its course. Thank you. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 08:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@FreeRangeFrog: Promoting an idea, such as the need for gender roles (which even the very title of the article does), does fall under WP:CSD G11. ""Promotion" does not necessarily mean commercial promotion: anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organization, a point of view, etc." —Largo Plazo (talk) 10:59, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Change?

why are you changing this into Albanian!!! It is english.. I made this page, please stop changing it. I don't see why you are changing it back to Albanian? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kristuq (talkcontribs) 18:05, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I explained this to you three times already. Here's the fourth time: because machine translations are unacceptable. Read WP:MACHINETRANSLATION. —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:08, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Union Bank (Albania)

Excuse me? You think that is promotion?

All the other banks around the world have a page and Union Bank (Albania) did not have a page on the english Wikipedia! I do not see how this is promotion or any sort of advertisement. Please do not delete posts that I create because they have valid information. Can you please explain to me why you would think that it is a promotional gesture when all the other companies have one?

Thank you Kristuq (talk) 18:14, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is no reason why there can't be an article on the bank (assuming it meets Wikipedia's guidelines for notability). In the article that you posted, the language, especially in the very long paragraph that made up most of the article, was very promotional, talking about how great the bank is, how wonderful its features are, etc.
Please read WP:Your first article for more information, including tips on what distinguishes an acceptable page from one that may be deleted. —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:50, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Union bank (Albania)

Sorry... I just saw you comments. I am new to this :( ! So if I translate this myself I am then able to repost it correct?

Sorry for all this mess!! I will get used to it quickly!

Kristuq (talk) 18:25, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's correct, if it also conforms to other Wikipedia guidelines, as I explained above. —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:51, 22 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Western Union

The middle text was an interview from the President of the company and I am not going to change her words, because that is saying things that aren't valid. Do you want that? Yes the text was straight from the article because that is the purpose of the reference or? Since I referenced it I am not going to change information because it goes beyond what is acceptable. That article was from a economic magazine which stays off bias... if the words are used in the interview why should I change them?

Thank you!!
