Article rejected due to referencing

Hello, you recently rejected my article on the grounds of inproper referencing. I made sure to get numerous reliable third party references so am unsure as to what I can do to improve the sources used. Can I get some tips as it is gradually improving but referencing is letting me down.

What did you make of the content?

Blorange2 (talk) 09:55, 16 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Given my advice at the article, don't think the department is ever going to be notable enough, it should just be a section of the main University of Kent article IMO. Joseph2302 (talk) 01:11, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can you help me edit

Bossladylife (talk) 09:51, 17 June 2015 (UTC)I would like to know if you can please update Rena Mero aka Sable from WWE wiki page, quite frankly as a huge fan of hers I feel she see deserves to have a newer much more updated picture than the one displayed on her page & I am new to wiki so i can't do it myself if you would be so kind as to do it for me I'd be very appreciative! Bossladylife (talk) 09:51, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Bossladylife: The problem is that most pictures of celebrities are copyrighted, so Wikipedia cannot use them- you can't just go on the web, find a picture you like, and add it to Wikipedia, like you tried to do. In order to use a newer picture, you would need to find one that isn't copyrighted, or where the copyright holder (usually the person who took the photo) gives permission for it to be used. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:01, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware of that but it is also very difficult to find a picture that is not Copyrighted and that's why I was asking you because you seem like an experienced wiki user and you seem like you'd be a great help — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bossladylife (talk • contribs) 10:10, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I can have a look when I have time, but it's highly likely no free-to-use photos of them exist. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:17, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

page creation

Autobiography issue sorted

hi Joseph, I got your note about not creating a page about myself, which trust me, I totally get. I am asked to have a wikipedia page about myself for a work related issue. I don't like to talk about myself, let alone create a page for me. So that's my conundrum, I need to have one to get some things done with work, it's a requirement. What do I do in this case? I do not want to break any rules here as they all make sense. Yet I need to have this page here. Advise? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pabl0godoyestel (talk • contribs) 01:20, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Pabl0godoyestel: I highly doubt that you "need" to have one for work. In any case, unless there is actually significant, independent coverage in reliable sources about you, per WP:GNG, then it won't be accepted/kept anyway, regardless of how much you claim to need it. Note that Wikipedia is not a social network, see WP:NOTASOCIALNETWORK, but an encyclopedia, so any article about you would have to be neutral tone and well sourced with reliable sources, rather than a promotional/marketing page. Joseph2302 (talk) 01:26, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Joseph, I totally agree with you and will only be happy to not have this page. Will copy and paste your message to get off the hook. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pabl0godoyestel (talk • contribs) 01:28, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. Glad I could help, seems like you didn't actually want an article anyway. Joseph2302 (talk) 11:07, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 11:39:39, 18 June 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by RisenFall

Draft accepted


Hi Joseph2302, thanks for your comments. I was wondering if I have enough citations now - I have 12 news sources. As you know I am a newbie : ) and I am worried that even comments like 'He sculpted a cheetah head and went back to the UK determined to sculpt full time' require a citation, even though they make no material claims about the sculptor other than the fact that his love of Africa started him working again, something that is evident in his many interviews. Thank you for your kind response. RisenFall (talk) 11:39, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@RisenFall: Had a quick look, and all those sources look good. I'll have a proper look when I've got more time. Joseph2302 (talk) 16:24, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That's very reassuring thank you.— Preceding unsigned comment added by RisenFall (talk • contribs)

@RisenFall: So they've got coverage in some of the UK's biggest papers, and some other sources, including a UAE paper. I believe this is enough to pass WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 17:46, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Joseph2302, brilliant! Thanks for assessing and passing the article so quickly. Is there any way I can show appreciation for your help? RisenFall (talk)

Replied

Hi,

I have spent quite some time reviewing the guidelines and have resubmitted. I have left in the code stating that the previous submission was rejected, should I delete it so people don't think this version has been rejected even though it says "Do not remove this line!" Thx!69.165.139.137 (talk) 13:04, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Decline message and comments- removed as messing with templates on this page
@69.165.139.137: No, you should keep the previous rejection and all the comments about it, it helps the next reviewer know what needed improving before, and whether or not it's been fixed. The reviewers will know it hasn't been rejected again, as the "review waiting" box is at the bottom, which means it's also on the list of submissions to review.

MetaProp NYC article speedy deletion

WP:NOTADVERTISING

Hi Joseph2302,

The page I wrote up, MetaProp NYC, was speedily deleted and I'm not sure why. Can you please let me know what needs to be changed and how I can get the editing for my article back so I can fix whatever it is that made it deleted.

MetaProp NYC is the #1 real estate technology accelerator that recently opened applications for its 2015/2016 class of 8 startups. It has been in the news: http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/16/metaprop-nyc-launch-idUSnPn7lMxdB+89+PRN20150616?irpc=932 . It also has its own website, Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn.

Please let me know what I have to do to make MetaProp NYC's Wikipedia page public.

Thank you, Slyandvert Slyandvert (talk) 22:50, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Already explained, WP:NOTADVERTISING, and I didn't delete it, someone else did. Also, you shouldn't be writing advertising for your company, see WP:COI. Joseph2302 (talk) 22:52, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

23:16:59, 18 June 2015 review of submission by CS at Sensis

Advice given


CS at Sensis (talk) 23:16, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Joseph,

Thanks for taking the time to review my submission - would greatly appreciate any feedback about how I could improve the article for potential resubmission. Reading back over it I definitely understand your point about it seeming too much like an advertisement, but we're a little unsure of how to proceed. Would it perhaps be better if it was just a very short (stub-like) article with a few facts?

CS at Sensis (talk) 23:16, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well from what I've seen, the company is in no way notable enough for a Wikipedia article, per WP:GNG and WP:CORP. Plus they already have a section in the Telstra article, which seems adequate to me for a company that doesn't seem very notable. Either way, writing it like a marketing brochure isn't going to help at all. Joseph2302 (talk) 23:20, 18 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
One of the main reasons we wanted to create a separate article was because we are no longer associated with Telstra any more, and without trying to sound condescending, I would argue your view of our notability. (A quick Google News search shows we've been in plenty of news articles recently) If, however, that doesn't satisfy the requirements for notability, I completely understand and will instead just update the disambiguation page. But if you think we do fit the requirements for notability, I am of course happy to organise a complete reworking of the article to comply with neutral language. CS at Sensis (talk) 00:31, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Don't touch the disambiguation page, it's not for your company, it's for companies with Wikipedia articles. Also, with a tone of writing like the last submission, any article will never be accepted. Cut the marketing rubbish, and stick to just facts and reliable sources. Joseph2302 (talk) 22:42, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Upward Sports/Editing Question

Hi,

I definitely did not mean to be a nuisance at all when inputting edit requests for Upward Sports. Through a Wikipedia handbook for how PR agency people are supposed to engage, I thought the talk page was the appropriate place to suggest edits. I'll refrain from multiple requests in the future.

Please let me know if there is a more preferred way to suggest edits to the page (or any page) in the future and if there is anything we could do with the page to keep it live. I realize the brand is not notable in the U.K but it is very notable in the U.S., especially in the southeastern part of the country.

Thank you!

Drewhawkins2 (talk) 19:23, 19 June 2015 (UTC)drewhawkins2[reply]

It is the preferred way to make COI edit requests like you did, but there only needs to be 1 of them at a time- you posted 3 of them, making it incredibly difficult to actually read the text. Requests are fine, but you only need to add the {{edit notice}} once to the article. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:27, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

SmileCareClub

You flagged SmileCareClub is stand-alone, as covered in reference articles. Subject has been covered outside of Wikipedia by multiple sources including New York Times, the Today Show, and Progressive Orthodontist (a leading publication in the orthodontic field) as well as a number of local news stations. I just added another local news station source to further substantiate the article. My guess is it's being reported as not notable because you may have thought this is the same as other invisible aligners. It's a totally different company with a different model, as the sources show.

@LTasc: Great. Now go discuss your affiliation to the company at WP:COIN#‎Dr. Panda Games- the evidence suggests you are affiliated, as you removed my cleaning up of the article, and the articles just been maintained by single-purpose accounts. Joseph2302 (talk) 22:38, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Note

Hi Joseph - thanks for all the work you do, especially dealing with the torrent of new articles that get created. You have positioned yourself right at the mouth of the torrent of conflicted editing that spews into WP and are doing a great job helping defend the integrity of WP. But it is getting to you - are getting too harsh, too fast, and dehumanizing the people you are dealing with. Which dehumanizes you. So... whatever you have to do, to keep from getting bitter, please do it. That is more important than anything. Thanks again for all your work here - you are doing a ton of good work. Jytdog (talk) 23:48, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

PS - for some reason, the "New Section" tab at the top of your Talk page is gone. Wierd. Jytdog (talk) 23:49, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
How am I being too harsh? They outed themselves by posting at the helpdesk, WP:Help Desk#Wiki disappeared from Google Search results, and then complained when other users (not me) tagged the articles as COI and advertising. Looking at the histories, a lot of the bad content was from them, for instance Britannia Creek was created by them, and is basically just a copy of Britannia Beach#Britannia Creek pollution. And it wasn't me who outed them as a paid editor, I simply moved the discussion to WP:COIN, the most appropriate venue for the discussion. The fact is that multiple editors have been disapproving of their work, yet for some reason they've decided to entirely blame me. Please explain exactly where I was harsh to them, given the fact that 2 other users clearly agree that they are an undisclosed paid editor whose company specialises in river articles? Joseph2302 (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the New Section tab is probably to do with a Javascript I tried to create, it'll hopefully fix itself soon, as I deleted the Javascript. Joseph2302 (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
(the horrors of javascript. i hope your headers do self-heal) i didn't write here to fight with you. I hope you can hear what I wrote. If you cannot or don't agree, you can ignore it. But please know that I watch what you do, and I really value your work at COIN. I don't want to see you burn out. Jytdog (talk) 00:07, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I get it, you think I'm doing too much, and in your opinion it's making my contributions less good. The fact is I don't see it- is there anywhere you specifically think I've been too harsh? Joseph2302 (talk) 00:13, 20 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think you are doing too much - every body has different capacities and i cannot judge yours (if only we had a "fed up with bullshit gauge", right?) . What i've seen is you getting harsher, quicker, lately, which is the closest thing we have to one of those. you actually struck the most recent comment at COIN where you were maybe too aggressive - so you saw it. thanks for doing that. i wish you the best, mister.

Tagging of Tuan Le (Computer Scientist)

I recently removed a speedy delete tag that you had placed on Tuan Le (Computer Scientist). I do not think that Tuan Le (Computer Scientist) fits any of the speedy deletion criteria  because "Tuan has published over ten peer reviewed papers in top journals and conference proceedings" is a claim of significance, as is "Best Papaer award". I request that you consider not re-tagging Tuan Le (Computer Scientist) for speedy deletion without discussing the matter on the appropriate talk page. I think you were a bit too quick on this one.

Requesting speedy deletion (CSD U5). (TW)

Dear Joseph,

I have been notified this morning about the speedy delation request you have issued. I'm a bit confused on the motivations and was uanble to read your message to me as it did not appear on the talk page. I wonder if you could guide me to better understand what has prompt you to request the delation and to check if there are any solutions to avoid this. I believe that the informations contained in the article are reliable, most of sources can be traced, and that there is a strong public facing aspect about the subject of this article (Orsola de Castro) that fully justify its publication, therfore I'm not clear on the exact reasons of your request. I have included to this email a few links about the subject for your attention. I can provide more if this can help.

I hope to hear from you soon, best regards,

Dear Joseph,

many thanks for your reply. To answer to your questions.

No I'm not drafting an Article, the article was originally published I believe three years ago and subsequently updated, unfortunately because of an error it had been published with the title - User: Orsola de Castro. I had been trying to correct this without success and then enquired with wikipedia a while ago on how to address the matter but did not received an answer.

No I'm not Orsola de Castro, the article was published originally by a student that came for an internship, working with us at Reclaim To Wear, a company where Orsola de Castro is appointed creative director. After her experience with us she had the idea to start a wikipedia account and develop the article, she then has given us access to the user page. As previously said I strongly believe that Orsola de Castro has a public profile that justify the article and this is way I'm requesting for the article not to be delated. I recommend that you further look into this matter as in recent years Orsola de Castro has been involved in some of the most prominent campaigns for supporting sustainable development in fashion, she is the co-founder of Fashion Revolution Day an annual campaign that has reached a global reach, she is a regular speaker at international conferences and has been teaching in universities around the world. I hope tat his will further help to clarify, Very best, Filippo Ricci Orsola de Castro (talk) 14:11, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Orsola de Castro was deleted years ago as a copyright infringement. And as I mentioned above, it's not an acceptable use of a userpage. Also, you've said that multiple users have been using this account, which is not permitted by Wikipedia policy, which clearly states single use. If you want to write an article about them, please read WP:COI, and then create a new account for yourself (not one being used by multiple editors), and use WP:Article Wizard. Note you aren't allowed to just copy your website, per WP:COPYVIO.
A note to admins: This account should probably be blocked for shared use. Joseph2302 (talk) 19:36, 24 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Gay Center, Tel Aviv-Yafo Deletion?

I am new to wikipedia, and do not know how to work this site. I didn't know there was a "sandbox" or a "draft article space". I didn't see those options available. I don't mind editing the article that exists, but the name of the article is incorrect. The Tel Aviv Municipal LGBT Community Center is not even the name of the center. The Center would like that corrected. How do I go about messaging the author of the article and asking for him to correct this mistake? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gsperlin89 (talk • contribs) 11:17, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This seems to have been answered at the help desk. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:54, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Louisiana Culinary Institute

Hello: Louisiana Culinary Institute has been trying to correct information on its wikipedia page that is outdated. This is not to be done to self promote but to ensure that the information is correct. For example we do not offer diploma's anymore. This is my first time attempting to edit a wiki page and I have seen your resources, however I am still unsure of what exactly got my post removed. The information listed is factual. I have received several menacing emails that are very hostile but we are not trying to do anything wrong but rather repair a page that was recently removed. Please provide me with specific instruction. Noting wiki rules is vague without saying exactly where the issue is.

@Leah.white: As mentioned at your talkpage, you need to stop removing content supported by reliable sources and replacing it with "official company text"- you may claim that what you're adding is correct, but this cannot be verified. Also, the content of your additions is ridiculously promotional, against WP:NPOV These include:
  1. Adding a contact address, which is entirely unnecessary and unwanted.
  2. Listing all your degrees- not wanted per WP:NOTADIRECTORY
  3. "Admissions" section- not wanted, it's information that should be on your website, not an enyclopedia.
Also, you have a conflict of interest, please read WP:COI- it strongly discourages you from editing this page due to your COI. Instead you should suggest changes at the talkpage, Talk:Louisiana Culinary Institute, with your changes supported by reliable sources.
Also, per WP:OWN, you don't own the Wikipedia article about your institute. Joseph2302 (talk) 20:44, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your feedback. As you just were more clear in your last response, that is what I was requesting. This is our first attempt at using wikipedia. My first post contained an address and contact phone number however my subsequent one did not. Our toll free number recently changed as did our degree program offerings. That is not noted anywhere in a media file, therefor how should that be handled? The reason for the other short attempt at posting has still not been explained.

If it was important for the encyclopedia, it would be covered in reliable sources. And no-one is going to contact you via email or post about it. If no reliable sources support your changes, then they shouldn't be made. Addition of unsourced material (or material just sourced from your own website) is not acceptable.
