21:21:28, 5 January 2016 review of submission by 2605:A000:CCC3:C100:D4FD:3F:C8FD:B07F



Dear Dat GuyWiki,

I had to resubmit the article since the previous reviewer did not answer my question. Would you please help (see below)?

Dear Reviewer,

My article was about `Haider Khaleel Raad` has declined 3 times for different reasons! First it was a referencing issue, then external links, and now about notability. I believe along with many academics in this field that the person I am writing about is notable in his field. He is an author of 2 books (one of which was ranked number one best selling on Amazon last year under Aerodynamics category), and more than 50 articles of high impact factor. Could you please show me the difference in terms of notability and referencing between my article and these 2 examples?

Thank you again for your time. Happy New Year!

@2605:A000:CCC3:C100:D4FD:3F:C8FD:B07F: First of all, please read this. Then, read the notability criteria. If you feel that he still does pass it, then you might like to find more WP:RS. Cheers, Dat GuyTalkContribs 21:37, 5 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The script is now "User:Samtar/dev/editquest/editquest.js" (as I misspelt editquest..) - see the instructions and remember to purge your cache otherwise your diffs will go to my test page (which your latest did). Cheers! -- samtar whisper 10:36, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Bot

That a no for the bot then? -- samtar whisper 21:58, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Samtar: Not sure. Found out that there is a bot, but it and it's operator aren't active. Here. Dat GuyTalkContribs 21:59, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm.. Decat-ing blocked users would be pretty trivial - I'll work on a script in the background as a learning exercise and maybe take it to the approval group if you/others request it -- samtar whisper 22:06, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion may be used only once

Please note that WP:Proposed deletion is intended for proposed deletions that can be reasonably expected to be uncontroversial. Accordingly, a prod tag "may only be placed on an article a single time. Any editor (including the article's creator) may object to the deletion by simply removing the tag; this action permanently cancels the proposed deletion via PROD." The more formal review procedure of WP:Articles for deletion remains available. Thanks! --Arxiloxos (talk) 23:55, 6 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

answering help me requests

Good job answering the help-me request such as at User talk:Aniyahboo1 however it would be helpful if you do a couple things while you're at it... (1) cleanup (WP:REFACTOR) their original message so it has proper formatting; (2) be sure to answer their message after their signature; and (3) remove the template by changing it to {{help me-helped}}... all the best, and good work!

Flatterer. I have no aspirations. I don't use tools (I am almost entirely a manual editor) and since I don't have them don't know what I would do if I were handed them. It would be a real responsibility, and I take that stuff seriously. When I got into the top 400 wikipedians of all time maybe. 22:22, 16 January 2016 (UTC)


Eva Mozes Kor

Good catch. However, she is my opinion important and interesting enough that I am rewriting the article. Besides the first section which was copyvio from the source given, most of the rest is probably copied also, and I plan to cut out everything not directly about her, and rewrite the rest. DGG ( talk ) 19:21, 17 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@DGG: Sure! Also, I thought of working on another holocaust survivor, Draft:Jona Laks. Going to try to bluelink some of those people from the List of Holocaust survivors. Dat GuyTalkContribs 06:20, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thank. I'll be glad to look at it. It can be difficult to do this properly without copyvio, but in most cases the detail is better summarized. I'm also going to check the links & content for the pages of the various Auschwitz physicians DGG ( talk ) 06:35, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Changes to The Light Princess

I appreciate your diligence in maintaining the integrity of the page regarding the fairy tale The Light Princess, however I disagree that the change I made was not constructive. Extensive information about an adaptation of the fairy tale belongs on its own page, as has been done with works like Kinky Boots (film), Wicked (Maguire novel), and other stories and media that have been adapted to stage productions. I'd be interested in seeing other examples of articles in the style of this one, as it doesn't make sense to have so much information not relevant to the original work, for which the page is titled. Please share your thoughts. Thanks. Eric.yarham (talk) 16:43, 18 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading File:Rawest Nigga alive.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Problem with the same user

Hi,

I added more sources and details to Kurdish-Turkish conflict (1978-present) and that guy prevented my changes. He says that only captured soldiers who are not released be in the infobox and not all captured. I really don't understand his logic. Can you please help me with this?Ferakp (talk) 11:10, 20 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Ferakp: First of all don't revert it. Keep trying to discuss it on the talk page. I see it has temporarily stopped, however tell me if it resumes. Dat GuyTalkContribs 15:02, 20 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reporting tendentious editor

Hi,

There is tendentious user Ottomanor who is copy pasting "terrorist" words to Kurdish articles. Probably vandalizing. He did it in Kurdistan Workers' Party and Kurdish-Turkish conflict (1978-present). I called someone to help in chat and he/she reversed his changes in KWP. I reversed his changes in KTConflict. Should I report him?Ferakp (talk) 16:07, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Alice Roberts reverted proof that she is no longer vegetarian, but prescatarian

Hi DatGuy,

what was your precise reason for reverting the change? I just watched this interview and she said herself, that since she had kids, she is no longer a vegetarian, but a pescatarian.

Cheers

You did not prove that by linking the interview. Dat GuyTalkContribs 17:27, 21 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I did:

She is a pescatarian

---

I'm stunned by people like you. Have you even watched the provided link? Did you see it's from the Account of "The Royal Insitution", which has editorial oversight?

You want to look in the rulebook of wikipedia for citing youtube: YouTube and similar sites do not have editorial oversight engaged in scrutinizing content so editors need to watch out for the potential unreliability of the user uploading the video. There are channels for videos uploaded by agencies and organizations generally considered reliable such as that of the Associated Press on YouTube. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Videos_as_references)

So if you want to keep the false statement of Alice being a vegetarian, be my guest. But you do work actively against truth and knowledge. Live long and prosper.

A barnstar for you!

RE: China_National_Refinery_Corporation

TOTALLY FAKE: NO SUCH NATIONAL OR STATE-OWNED COMPANY EVER EXISTS OR EXISTED IN CHINA.

Sorry. No time to explain. --121.44.225.51 (talk) 15:54, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize, however you must explain. Dat GuyTalkContribs 15:56, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Please search in English or Chinese, eg via Google News or LinkedIn. It is easy to check［http://www.sasac.gov.cn/n86114/n86137/index.html the complete list of the central state-owned companies of the PRC] (sorry, no English version of the list on their official site.)

Such huge Chinese "National" company is too famous to exist. Only Big 3 "National" oil/gas companies there.

The only source is too ridiculous to look like a "national"-level official website. It just lists some oil refining companies (the first being a local branch of SINOPEC, one of the Big 3) and fake a title of "National Group" even with a wrong Chinese title ("China National Refinery Factory Group Corp" instead of its claimed "chinanationalrefinerycorporation").

Response from CommsPro123

DatGuy, thanks for reaching out. I've submitted a page for review on behalf of a client and am currently waiting to hear back. A few questions on that point: 1) Is there a way to pull the article so I don't get in trouble given my COI? 2) If the article is reviewed and accepted, do I have to take any further steps if I'd like to make future edits? 3) If my article is denied, should I have you review and approve it, and then have you submit it?

I'm so glad you adopted me- I've been waiting for over a month to have help and you now here you are! :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by CommsPro123 (talk • contribs) 16:51, 22 January 2016 (UTC) CommsPro123 (talk) 16:58, 22 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
