Page creation

Hello, you were the last to edit this page: Mohamed Hassan. Could you make it a redirect to Mohammed Hassan please, the spellings are almost identical. Rgds, --Midas02 (talk) 00:33, 28 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you reverted Sindh University Alumni Template?

You have reverted Sindh University Alumni Template , which is uncomprehensible. Plz don't revert it because it only adds a image of the relevant template. Kindly give an autentic reason behind your revert, I think its illogical to revert it.--Jogi don (talk) 10:12, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted it because the image you are adding to that template is not a free image. Unfree images can only be used on articles and then only in limited circumstances. Non free images can never be used as you are trying to used this one. -- GB fan 10:27, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Dear , File:UOS logo.png is already used in Wkipedia article University of Sindh and its free image. so hope you do understand , ok.--Jogi don (talk) 10:32, 6 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No it is not free. It is used in that article under a claim of fair use. -- GB fan 10:34, 6 August 2015 (badge for thatGB fan thanks for the mention! You got a badge

Jonathan Irwin

Hi, most of the references on the page have a "Missing or empty |title=" tag. Is there any way of fixing this? Thanks. 109.255.120.83 (talk) 20:15, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Look at the first citation, you will see a line that says |title=Who We Are That is the code that gets rid of that message. You will need to look at each citation and determine what the appropriate title is and add |title=appropriate title to the citation. -- GB fan 20:22, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

Ta for reverting my oopsie edit at Wikipedia:Administrators/RfC for BARC - a community desysopping process. Unintentional. I was scrolling through the revisions on my iPad, so the big thumb syndrome struck once again. Moriori (talk) 20:36, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

NP, that is what I thought happened. It has happened to me a couple of times. -- GB fan 21:33, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Gerard Lima

I am wondering why the page I created Gerard Lima was deleted. It is a credible page containing 100% real information with media coverage supporting the page. I have seen other pages for people who have less information and credibility stay up on your site. What would it take for my article to remain up and not get deleted. Is there a way for me to appeal the decision and have the article put back up?--Gerad Lima (talk) 16:01, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted the page because there was no indication what is significant about you. Starting your own production company so that you can write, produce, direct and act in your own movie means nothing unless it is noticed by reliable sources. Some page you should read:

If you can confirm that you have read these and still think you meet all the requirements, I will restore the article as a draft and then others will review it before it is restored as an article. There is a way to appeal the decision. You can ask for a review at Wikipedia:Deletion review. -- GB fan 19:47, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nrwairport RfA request: comments

Thanks for your contributions concerning this editor; I hope the editor uses this opportunity positively and works towards the values the wiki-community has established. Some of his userboxes are a little dubious, while they have very little wiki-legality or meaning, but the accomplishments can be validated easily.(Regushee (talk) 23:52, 16 August 2015 (UTC))[reply]

Hopefully they will listen and improve. -- GB fan 23:56, 16 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict) GB fan, I too came here to make a comment acknowledging that notice is being taken of this editors activities. User talk:220 of Borg#Proposed deletion of Bikram Samvat is where my involvement started, and may be of interest. I too queried the editor about their userpage claims. Regards, 220 of ^Borg 00:00, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, today I removed a PROD tag that Nrwairport had put on a user page that contained completely innocuous content. I've seen him claim to have made over 100,000 edits with a previous account and then later claim he made 500,000 edits which was challenged by other editors (discussion here, since deleted from talk page). Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 00:43, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz: Last I looked it read 50,000 edits, and the reviewer icon I queried has also gone. Curiuoser and curiuoser! Too bad you aren't 'Alice' or I could say things about following the white rabbit, to see where it leads! Getting hard to believe that someone with so many edits could make so many mistakes. I'll be surprised if this doesn't end up at WP:AN/I. 220 of ^Borg 01:38, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@220 of Borg:, If you go through the user page history, you'll see the claim of edits has been as low as 2,000 to as high as 500,000...all in the same day. I would just like to know his previous account name. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:48, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I'm not surprised. AGF, I'm wondering which banned user they are. I hope I am wrong, but .... too much of this sort of crap goes on. We may have already lost new editors because of their tagging of totally allowable newby users' pages as 'advertisements' or 'promotional', with only a name, date of birth and their school/university attendance (or similar). Now to bed many hours late for a nap before 'real life' crap to do! Sigh. 220 of ^Borg 02:00, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have spent a little bit of time looking through some of their talk page history and saw the 500k edit claim. That is not believable. -- GB fan 02:02, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page history to be restored

Hi GB fan! Back in March, you kindly deleted the article Kateřina Kramperová (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), as the tennis player, at the time, was not notable per project standards. However, after winning the women's doubles competition at the 2015 Advantage Cars Prague Open this weekend, Keroks (talk · contribs) has re-created the article, which now meets the requirements. I was wondering if you would be so kind, again, to restore the page history as the article had, as far as I can remember, a fair few edits before being deleted half a year ago. Would you do us the honours? Many thanks in advance! Jared Preston (talk) 08:04, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done, all the history is back in the article. -- GB fan 11:34, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Super, cheers! Jared Preston (talk) 12:21, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
