Hoping to clear confusion regarding your vandalism claim.

Hey Kylie! Gaurav here from Mumbai, India.

I just opened Wikipedia this morning (IST) to read about something and this message popped up -

I wish to clarify that I have not made any changes to the said page and I hardly ever edit Wikipedia. On the internet, IP addresses are usually hopping from one person to the other and so I guess its a bug if such errors are shown to random people visiting the site (without logging in)

Let me know your views on this and I'd be willing to share any more information required to clarify this issue further.

Thanks and have a great day!

  • Hi Ojha.iiitm thanks for the message - no need to be concerned most people know IP addresses are often dynamic so warnings for IP addresses are mainly just used to track issues over a short durations. Those edits were a long time ago so no one would have associated with you. Its unfortunate that new users get the shock of warnings for edits they didn't make. Even though your now logged in and thus would not see that page again I have still removed the warnings as its clear the IP have been re-assigned.

Why would you delete an official photo from the Howard Stern Show after it's been there 8 months? Can you please restore it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.90.89.164 (talk) 12:43, 5 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi 184.90.89.164 I didn't delete the file I just removed the link to the file after it had been deleted. From the report here for reason "Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion (CSDH))" however as it does not link to the specific deletion discussion I can't help you with the original reason. However it does look a bit odd as the deletion log only shows this deletion, not any previous one. If you want to get more information you'll have to ask [[User::Foxj]] who actually deleted the file.

13:11:14, 8 November 2015 review of submission by Rizwan ashraf khaksar


Hi,

what kind of references should i use in the article? as it was published in just some news papers

  • Hi User:Rizwan ashraf khaksar Wikipedia is an Encyclopedia and your article currently reads like a newspaper opinion column. Firstly if by "it was published in just some news papers" you mean this article was then we can not accept as it would not be allow as per Copyright violations. If you mean that the information comes from various news papers then look at Help:Referencing for beginners which covers all references including newspapers. Also note articles need to follow the Wikipedia:Golden rule i.e. "Articles generally require significant coverage,in reliable sources,that are independent of the topic." Finally, Wikipedia articles need to be written from a Neutral point of view and this article at the moment reads like a very non-neutral opinion piece. If you want more advice from a range of experienced editors I recommend asking at the Wikipedia:Teahouse. All the best KylieTastic (talk) 13:39, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Frank Stanford

Re: your Frank Stanford edits and deletions. Your actions constitute vandalism. In fact, I am the copyright holder and the photographer of the photo you deleted of his grave. I took the photo myself on October 13, 1998 at his grave at St. Benedict's Cemetery at Subiaco, AR; I also personally scanned it and uploaded it to Wikipedia. Save your scorched earth editing for trivial pages and meaningless subjects. The Frank Stanford page is meticulously researched and scrupulously coded, in large part by me and I and others don't appreciate vandals such as yourself who flagrantly violate Wikipedia codes of conduct to advance a personal agenda that does not come close to overriding the consensus reached on Frank Stanford content by myself and pothers knowledgeable on the subject who created the page. Marking a photo for deletion that should not have been deleted proves you are a vandal and your access should be restricted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ozarkhighlands (talk • contribs) 00:13, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Ozarkhighlands before accusing people of vandalism you should check your facts first. Your list of false accusations shows that in contradiction to your claim that you do not understand the "Wikipedia codes of conduct". I suggest you read Wikipedia:Civility and Wikipedia:Vandalism for a start. Now onto your points....
  • "your Frank Stanford edits and deletions" - I've made 1 edit only on that page and as per my edit summary it was to revert your reversion of the ImageRemovalBot edits thus adding back the already deleted images. This just meant you added red-linked error messages back to the article. You appear to have made no effort to reinstate the images, and failed to give an edit summary with your reversals.
  • "Your actions constitute vandalism" - I doubt you can find any admin or experienced editor that would think removing invalid links to previously deleted images giving a hint to the correct action (aka re-upload or restored by OTRS first) could be called vandalism.
  • "In fact, I am the copyright holder...." - Good then you should either re-upload, msg the deleting admin, or use another of the official routes to reinstate the image.
  • "Save your scorched earth editing for trivial pages and meaningless subjects." - Is this just random abuse? Personally I try to treat all pages with the same respect be they subjects I love or subjects I personally believe to be no interest. I believe the integrity of the project comes first. This type of edit is rare compared to most of what I do reverting real vandalism, reverting accidental image breaking, and valid image removal.
  • "vandals such as yourself who flagrantly violate Wikipedia codes of conduct" - name one? I can state WP:REDNOT for my edit which includes "Do not create red links to files"
  • "Marking a photo for deletion that should not have been deleted proves you are a vandal"
  • Firstly wrong again, I did not mark the files for deletion, in over 75,000 edits across the Wikipedia projects I believe I've marked less than 2-dozen for deletion, most for fragrant copyright violations.
  • Secondly, just marking a file is not vandalism and if it was flagrant bad faith flagging the user would be cautioned by the admins and the file not deleted (as these were)
  • Thirdly you have a message on your own talk page from Kelly informing you File:FrankStanford St. Benedict sCemetery.jpg was marked for deletion and why - not the action of a vandal. As I cannot see the original page I can only guess that this may have just been a technicality with the licence information you gave. English Wikipedia and Wikimedia Commons take copyright very seriously.
  • The other file, that as you had no notification I assume you did not upload, was File:Emery Memorial Home.jpg and was deleted as "No evidence of permission for more than 7 days" and as per your file was deleted by the admin Explicit
  • However after saying all this I will assume good faith and this post was just out of frustration, maybe just have a bad day. So as I really do think the good, relevant images are important to articles I encourage you, as you say you are the copyright holder, to either upload again with as much detail as you have for the licence, or possibly contact Explicit as the deleting admin, or you could ask at the OTRS noticeboard. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 21:43, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Ozarkhighlands: I have gone ahead and restored the image which you uploaded. Please understand that it was tagged for deletion as a possibly unfree file because an author's name was cited, but it did not specifically indicate that you were the same person. In cases like this, it is assumed that someone other than the uploader is the author, but lacks evidence that said file was released under the specified license. I understand your frustration, and I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. It is simply a safeguard to delete image that may possible infringe on someone's rights. — ξxplicit 06:37, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Taylor Lianne Chandler

Suggesting additional information regarding this entry. Since she had gender reassignment surgery, should pronouns "his, he and him" be used in discussing Taylor? This separation of pronoun within the timeline is important in the identification of this person, especially as a proclaimed advocate of the transgender community.

Also, is the term "legendary" in describing the horse jockey subjective?

Lastly, according to her, her "alleged" boyfriend was dating her for less than two weeks although he has never confirmed their relationship (reference available).

Your feedback is appreciated. Thank you.

Juliealyssa Juliealyssa (talk) 16:19, 9 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Juliealyssa and welcome to Wikipedia - it's not really a subject I am familiar with my edit being the last on Taylor Lianne Chandler was just maintenance. I'm not aware of any policy on this type of thing - I can only suggest asking at the Wikipedia:Teahouse were lots of experienced editors hang out. Hopefully someone knows of a policy and or wiki project for this type of question.
I think the term "legend" is a bit Wikipuffery for me, but the linked source does use the word
Lastly I'm not sure what your asking on the alleged boyfriend issue? Normally I would say such items should not be included - however it appears to be one reason she "gained attention" thus is substantive to her Notability rather than just rumour or gossip.
As I said I'm not familiar with the subject so recommend either the Wikipedia:Teahouse, or start a discussion on the articles talk page or if you think these are concerns that violate the Biographies of living persons policy than you could post to the BLP/Noticeboard.

new to wiki

hi kylie I'm new to wiki and for a university project i need to create a page on an artist a colour or typography that does already have one, i made my account a couple of days ago but wiki said i may need to edit a few pages before i create my own, where do i start? thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jamielewist (talk • contribs) 10:30, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Jamielewist sorry for the delay but been at work with no time to answer. If you want to create a new page then it's recommend to create either in your own user area, own sandbox, or the draft area. This is especially important for new users as otherwise you can end up with the page being deleted for violation of one of the many policies. i.e just as you did for for AfC submission User:Jamielewist/sandbox/Jamie_Lewis which was declined as it was a statement more for your user page User:Jamielewist than it was an article. On to your question where to start?
  • First I would say do The Wikipedia Adventure - which you've done so checkY
  • Look around for small changes you can make to existing articles. I would normally suggest subjects your interested in, or the 'Random Article' on the left hand menu. However as you want to "create a page on an artist a colour or typography" I would suggest looking at those that already exist. Maybe find one that has a good structure to base a new one on.
  • I would think there are more missing articles on artists than colours or typography, however note that if the artist is alive you'll need to be aware of Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons
  • I would highly recommend either do as you did for User:Jamielewist/sandbox/Jamie_Lewis or use the Article wizard to start a new article.
  • Lastly if you have any other questions or want advise on editing you can ask at the Wikipedia:Teahouse where lots of friendly experienced editors help out, no having to wait for individuals to get off work ;)

How PAW Patrol won the West

Hello and thank you for reverting various film articles after unhelpful updates by dynamic IP 67.44.*. With the date changes, good-faith copyvio from IMDB and fantasy plot rewrites, this kid is keeping a few of us busy! I see Rio Conchos (film) is now protected. Is there anything more we should do to deter this pest?

Here's a probably incomplete list of damage in case it helps. I've not provided diffs, as most changes span several edits and are repeated from a different IP after reversion.

Thanks again, Certes (talk) 13:36, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Certes I had hoped that little pest had got the idea after they had been blocked several times and then I got Rio Conchos (film) blocked. Didn't notice them back as maybe they hadn't made the same mistakes as before that made me notice them. I've been fighting an even more pernicious vandal using large chunks of 2.24.* and 2.27.* vandalising transport articles - even had a block on a few thousand IP's for a while due their persistence. With more of these cases and the trouble IPv6 users can cause I'm starting to think they are going to have to block anon editing eventually. I'll keep an eye out and run a scan on 67.44.* as well as the other ranges now and then. Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 20:35, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nicosia district

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Lefko%C5%9Fa_District&action=edit

I don't get how me editing all "Lefkosa" words is nonconstructive. Why is it in Turkish and not in English? It's Cypriot land not turkish, it should be in English or Greek. It's an offense and if I could of edited the title as well to Nicosia I would of done so.

Λευκωσία/Nicosia/Lefkosia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.228.62.32 (talk) 07:03, 23 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi 62.228.62.32 the reason why it looked non-constructive was no reason (edit summary) was given for the change. So without knowing the context to others it looked the same as say you changing "Lefkoşa" to "HELLO". We unfortunately get a lot of random vandalising like that. As the page did not even mention Nicosia as another name the reason was not obvious, however as it's clear you were not being un-constructive I will remove the invalid warning. However as for the name change, you'll need to provide a source for what you say. The given source for the Census 2006 lists "Lefkoşa District". Up till you posted this I didn't even know there was a self-declared state of Northern Cyprus - but just as we have the article on Northern Cyprus we also have the main Cyprus article. Similarly we have Nicosia which covers the governance, as well as Lefkoşa District. Just as you see it as "an offense" I guess the people on the other side of the dispute see it the other way. As such Lefkoşa District is a valid encyclopedic entry, however it does appear odd that Lefkoşa District does not make the disputed status clear.

Hi Kylie

Ah I see! Sorry about this.. can I just ask you if think these links are reliable sources for my page and meet notability standards? I'm not sure what other sources I can use other than online links?

http://www.vogue.co.uk/miss-vogue/whats-up/2015/04/steven-young http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/stevenyoung http://soundofbrit.fr/review-steven-young-moveable-feast/ http://www.discogs.com/UNKLE-Where-Did-The-Night-Fall/release/2832340

Many thanks for your time Ruthie

  • Hi Ruthie I'm no expert on this I just try to help out at AFC and accept/decline the obvious (such as no references). Vogue I would believe would be considered a good source, however it does not really say that much about them. Also I followed the link to the facebook account and 385 likes does not help (not that popularity = notability). The cdbaby.com link is a reference for the information it contains, but is does not really help for notability as these days its easy for anyone to make albums, write books etc and get listed on such sites (but all valid references are still good to add to the article). As for soundofbrit.fr my french is not great, but English Wikipedia does not require sources to be in English - however it looks like a good source with a lot of information. Lastly although discogs.com goes to show his link with UNKLE, it does only list him as bass on one track so rather than "... part of the band UNKLE..." he just looks like a session musician from that link.
  • So firstly I definitely think you should add the first three references, and use Help:Referencing for beginners to add them as inline references. Look around for more online references would help, but you can also reference print media if any news papers or magazines have written articles about him (see References not online section). You could also ask for more help/advise than I can give by asking at the Wikipedia:Teahouse where lots of experienced editors answer questions and sometimes help more directly. You can then decide to either decide to submit again and get more feedback, or if you think you havn't managed to meet Wikipedia:Notability (music) then maybe just a bit of time is all that is needed. A good new artist will soon enough get articles written and/or reached one of the other conditions. All the best KylieTastic (talk) 20:51, 1 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately some names pop up on a regular basis, and appear not to care. All the best, and happy editing KylieTastic (talk) 20:38, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

16:42:07, 7 December 2015 review of submission by BeaufortPatrick


HI Kyletastic - thanks very much for your response. Could you please elaborate on which information needs supporting sources/verification? The biographical details are fairly straightforward - how much detail is required? Or is it a question of providing links to the publishers? I looked at Julian Maclaren-Ross' entry, which is similar, and could not see much in the way of citations. Any guidance you could offer would be much appreciated. Thank you.

  • Hi BeaufortPatrick I had assumed the intent was all information was included in the Obituaries section but it is far from clear. I guess maybe not all of the obituaries are not online, but I'm assuming you had copies to work from otherwise. Thus a big improvement would be to improve the obituaries listed as references. Firstly for those that do not know the publications the refs would be difficult to follow, if you use the ref toolbar or Template:Cite news (or cite web) directly you could add the url and page numbers and any other helpful details. Secondly if you <ref name="">... </ref> tags with names you can add inline links to show which items come from which sources (see Help:Referencing_for_beginners#Same_reference_used_more_than_once and Wikipedia:Inline citation). Obviously its easier for people to verify online links when they exist and that would help get the article accepted more easily, however its certainly not mandatory. I've not got the time to be more helpful at the moment but I have added an example ref to The Scotsman link to give you an idea of a ref and using it in more than one place (you may wish to add <ref name=scotsman.com" /> to other points). Hope that help you along - all the best. KylieTastic (talk) 22:01, 7 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a way to prevent repeated vandalism to a page?

The page titled "The Thin Blue Line has attracted a person or persons who keep deleting cited info and replacing it with ether nothing or silly opinions. I'm not knowledgeable enough to fix this issue. Can you help or explain to me how I can fix it myself? 23:17, 10 December 2015 (UTC)98.25.9.242 (talk)

More vandalisum has now been done. i am going to leave it till tmro in order to prevent being accused of waring. but just look at the current version and the info that was removed.Schemel (talk) 00:47, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi 98.25.9.242 and Schemel - Yes there is a way to try to stop repeated vandalism by IP users by submitting a request to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection. However as semi protecting the article would block all anonymous edits its usually only added for a short time. However in this case I'm not sure its vandalism per se rather than a a difference of opinion as both versions are unsourced. As such it would be best to find more sources as then edits removing sourced material would be reverted by more editors as non-constructive/vandalism. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 10:46, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The information being removed and changed had 2 citations.Schemel (talk) 14:01, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I have edited the info back to how it was before it was messed with. The info that is being removed is cited info that can be easily verified. I would like to request the protection you mentioned above for 30 days or so, in order to protect the page in hopes that the malicious editing will stop.Schemel (talk) 15:36, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The vandal has repeatedly attacked the page and its talk page since protection was temporarily imposed. Is there anything else I should be doing?Schemel (talk) 22:03, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Schemel, I see they have chosen to not block ip editors but put the article requiring review - as such yes the ip editor may continue but it will be listed at Special:PendingChanges until someone with the relevant permissions accepts or reverts. So their edits are now being effectively watched by a lot of people so if they persist they will end up blocked. Unfortunately this sort of thing is the price we pay for the Anyone can edit) policy. As least they are not ip swapping every few edits like two other persistent vandals I'm tracking. So my advise is keep an eye on them; report any other targeted articles to Wikipedia:Requests for page protection if needed, but most of all don't let them wind you up. I know that can be difficult, but it's best to walk away from a problem user and continue to be a constructive editor another day than to let the tiny minority of problem editors wind you up and possibly drive you away. The article is being watched, so go have a great weekend. All the best KylieTastic (talk) 22:25, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank youfor your help. the person has 2 ip addresses. also they went to the security guard page today and edited that I only noticed because I looked at his recent changes page. I fixed it and requested temporary semi protection but it was denied. again thank you for your help. I learned to do a cpl new things today.Schemel (talk) 22:32, 11 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your review. It was actually a Japanese translation from an article in the English version of Wikipedia. I had confused the two systems, but I have now successfully submitted the article on the Japanese Wikipedia. Sorry to have troubled you the time for reviewing, and thank you so much!

hi I'm not sure if you got it correct as I did not make any changes to any webpage before nor I have a Wikipedia account. Regarding the Korea contributions, I did not search on it before. please check before sending next time. Thank You for being a contributer to Wikipedia.

Draft Data Excellence rejected.

Hello KylieTastic ! My article was rejected but I do not understand why?

This is the two cases what I understood: 1.This is the style of writing because you say: it is not an item worthy of an encyclopedia 2. Do I have edit my article in the wrong area ? Do I have write it in the sandbox ? If this case, i will remove my draft in the sandbox ?

So, can you clear up please your reject and explain the procedure to follow to be accepted ? Have a nice dayYanniyolo (talk) 05:00, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Yanniyolo the Articles for creation procedure is for submitting encyclopaedic articles, where the text you submitted was just a statement of who you are, etc. This would normally go on your user page User:Yanniyolo, and within a few restrictions you can put what you want on your User pages and they do not have to be submitted or accepted. This goes for all of your pages including your sandbox, which can be used to make test edits, or write new articles - so you are welcome to write there, its your area. Personal sandbox pages usually have the template {{User sandbox}} at the top that gives you the button to easily submit articles if that's what they contain.
  • So if this was meant as just a page to introduce yourself and what you would like to do on Wikipedia then you can just move/copy to User:Yanniyolo (just like I have mine User:KylieTastic)
  • However for an article to be accepted for the mainspace see the following articles:
The Golden rule and The Five pillars
What is an article? and What Wikipedia is not
Wikipedia:Your first article
All the best, and happy editing KylieTastic (talk) 11:50, 12 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
EDIT: Sorry I got confused I thought you were talking about the article User:Yanniyolo/sandbox that I declined you mean Draft:Data Excellence which has not been declined, but it was moved from User:Yanniyolo/sandbox/Data Excellence by another editor. This article has not yet been reviewed and it looks well formatted and has a number of references, so someone willl get arround to reading, checking and reviewing soon enough. Note we currently have 325 article in the queue so how long it takes will depend on how many people are reviewing - Its a busy time of year for many.

Thank You Kylie

Hi Kylie, I thank you so much for helping me correct my first wiki page, i added references to article due to no cite indexing on page can you please re-check any advice i sure appreciate it thanks Kylietastic Toniaesposito76 (talk) 00:06, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Toniaesposito76 happy to have helped. Sorry I'm currently a bit busy with work for the next few days so not really got the time to look at it the moment. It's a long article with a lot of references, and although that makes it a longer job to review it's a good thing to have a well referenced submission. A quick look makes it look like it should pass notability which is also an important thing. The only problem I noticed is the in-line external links; generally external links are only allowed in the reference, external links sections at the bottom (or in the infobox) not in-line in the article text. The reason is people (readers) don't expect to go to another site from links in the text. All in-line links should be Wikilinks and external links as references. Apart from that it's looking good. I would suggest you tidy these up first, but then you can either submit for review (lots more editors review with much more experience than me), or ask for more advise at the Wikipedia Teahouse where lots of experienced editors and admins hang out. On that last point I am not an admin here - so thanks for the barnstar but I had to remove so as not to make others think I was. All the best KylieTastic (talk) 15:42, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hairstyles

I was wondering if you are a hairstylist... I am a hairstylist and there are quite a few errors in those descriptions.... JessBant (talk) 19:10, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi JessBant I see your talking about List of hairstyles - no I'm not a hairstylist, my edit was purely maintenance (reverting an invalid attempt to use an external image). Be careful when doing such large changes, especially until you understand the wiki-markup. For instance you changed a valid link to Afro-textured hair to an invalid link natural ethnic. Also note that such things could be a mater of opinion, or local usage (English Wikipedia is for all English speaking countries). Another error you introduced was changing [[Temple Fade (hairstyle)|Blowout]] to [[ (hairstyle)|Blowout]] - the double square brackets are Wikilinks (links to other articles), if it contains a pipe | then the first part if the article (the one you changed from Temple Fade (hairstyle) to invlid (hairstyle) the second part is what is displayed. So it still shows Blowout, but the link is now broken (it was Blowout). Regards KylieTastic (talk) 19:39, 15 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there Kylie. I just wanted to mention that I removed the speedy deletion template, not the creator of the article. I do believe the subject is notable, at least in her profession of stripping, and that the article can be rescued. Coretheapple (talk) 21:55, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi Coretheapple yup I had noticed. I replaced the tag only because they ignored it's contents as the article creator and removed rather than contest. I then made a couple more edits and was just looking to see myself if the speedy was still valid as they had added content when you got there before me. The notice on the talk page was for their removal (before even adding any refs) not yours. All the best KylieTastic (talk)
Oh I see. Well, he/she shouldn't have removed it! I will amend my remarks. Thanks, Coretheapple (talk) 22:36, 16 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
