Jared Lebowitz

Please also remove "Jared lebowitz" and "Talk:Jared lebowitz" - it was the original article, was moved, and is now a redirect. Thanks! Justin15w (talk) 22:31, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

edit to school bullying article

Hi, may I respectfully ask you why you took down my new section on intervention?Mokeeg (talk) 02:21, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Mokeeg: Mainly because of lack of reliable sourcing. The only reference provided was to the intervention's own website. There was no independent coverage cited. —C.Fred (talk) 04:14, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Jared Lebowitz

Why did you delete the page of Jared Lebowitz? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MiddleburyFootball (talk • contribs) 18:39, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MiddleburyFootball: Because the article failed to assert his significance or importance. Your conflict of interest didn't help the situation either. —C.Fred (talk) 20:15, 8 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Raymond Chan (WWII Veteran)

I have rewritten the page for Raymond (Buster) Chan/Chinese Canadian Military

[1]

The new title article (as written in my words), is as follows:

Raymond Chan (Canadian WWII Veteran) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Raymond Chan, also known as "Buster"

Born March 8, 1920, Vancouver, BC.

As a young man and throughout his life, Raymond was driven and determined. He was a welder by trade for the Burrard dry docks of North Vancouver. He came from a family of 4 children, and was an intelligent, young and adventurous man. an opportunity to sign up for the Second World War would soon make those earlier dreams of travel, a true reality. Many young Chinese Canadians, clambered quickly for the opportunity to sign up and become an integral part of the military. They were the first pioneers who broke away from social barriers and paved a better path for their own constitutional rights and world acceptance. However, it was not as easy for the young recruit, Raymond Chan. Due to his ethnic background, he was turned down twice. However, after his third attempt, Vancouver's local Army recruiting office accepted his services. Each young Vancouver Chinese Canadian recruited were soon to become known as the Special Task Force unit 136. The military training center was based in Chilliwack, British Columbia.

During the later part of the Second World War in 1944, the British were anxious to support resistance movements in the Japanese-occupied areas of South East Asia. It was then when Raymond Chan was finally deemed useful to his country. The military used his Asian looks to their advantage,, as it was thought he could easily blend into those populated regions. His mission was to gather intelligence and support sabotage operations.

Under rigorous training for Force 136 - Raymond Chan was ready for combat under the British Intelligence Special Operations Executive (SOE). SOE operations were low visibility, utilizing speed, surprise, audacity and deception to minimize the associated risks, while maximizing the results. These tactics, techniques and procedures (TTPs) enabled the SOE forces to accomplish missions that, in many cases, conventional military forces could likely accomplish, albeit with greater difficulty, Hence, they were the "force of choice". Therefore, Raymond Chan was trained as an SOE operator who was geographically oriented, and was able to culturally attune himself to his surroundings. He was capable fo communicating in the local language(s). This capability enabled him (and others alike) to acclimatize rapidly in exotic locales and undertake their missions from a standing start.

After an approximate two months of training sessions in the Fraser Valley, Raymond Chan was shipped to England. Whereby; another extensive voyage to Burma India, awaited him. He was stationed in the region for several months, there he specialized in wireless operations.

Raymond Chan returned to Vancouver, BC and continued to be actively supportive in his community. Once again, he would spend countless hours volunteering his services at teh Saint Vincent Hospital, to be by the bedside of many former veterans.

Recently the Government of Canada has established a commemoration of the men's valiant efforts. Mr Raymond Chan, along with his fellow comrades, have all been honored on the memorial service wall of the Sun Yat Sen Garden's in Chinatown. His name is also honored in the Chinese Canadian Military Museum in Vancouver, BC. Several years ago, he was sent to China as an honorary guest speaker on behalf of the Chinese Government. Raymond Chan was also invited as a guest by Canada's first Asian-Canadian Lieutenant-governor, David C. Lam, and received a distinguishable mention during the dinner gala. A recent documentary was made and highlights the Special Task Force 136 mission. "Buster" Raymond Chan's former regiment Force unite 136, has been published in numerous articles and tutorials. And each member has been strongly acknowledged for their admirable display of courage and strength.Heather5424 (talk) 08:15, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Heather5424: Wikipedia's guideline on whether there should be a separate Wikipedia article about an individual military veteran, is at WP:SOLDIER. Unfortunately, Raymond Chan, despite his distinguished service, seems not to meet these requirements. MPS1992 (talk) 08:39, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Heather5424: I think I have to agree with MPS1992. I am not convinced that Chan is individually notable enough to have his own article. —C.Fred (talk) 22:06, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

AGE-u-cate Training Institute

Hello,

My name is John Brandon. I'm vice president of AGE-u-cate Training Institute. Recently, I worked on an article for 3 days and finally thought it was in keeping within the Wikipedia guidelines for submission. My wife, president of the company, is mildly featured in the article AGE-u-cate Training Institute as the president and founder. We read and re-read the article many times to ensure that it would not appear to be advertising. It was factual and informative with regard to why the company was started. We cited many independent references and tried our best to give potential readers only the facts. When I logged back in this evening to read it again, I learned it was deleted due to unambiguous advertising. I looked at many commercial organization articles in public space to make sure we weren't in violation of Wikipedia rules. One particular article I noted was ACE Hardware. While factual, it did have the ACE Hardware logo plus other "gallery" photos embedded in the text.

Is our 3 days of work in vain... that is, is our article simply gone or do we have an opportunity to fix whatever was wrong with it?

@Johnhbrandon: You might want to address this message to RHaworth, the admin who actually did the deletion. I wasn't convinced that the article was pure spam, although there was some phrasing where it felt more like a promotional brochure than an encyclopedia article. It would also help if you showed where the company had been written about in newspapers or magazines—in reliable sources independent of the company. —C.Fred (talk) 01:25, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ayyadurai etc

I saw your message, but I'm not sure it will help. From an AGF point of view, it is true that (elsewhere) after the settlement of the Gawker lawsuit Ayyadurai was the subject of a number of repulsive attacks; I see why people are upset about that, and why it would be natural to assume that skepticism about his claims is racially motivated. If YatesByron steps back and starts to engage more calmly perhaps then we can explore why that's not necessarily so. Pinkbeast (talk) 02:00, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

welcome...

Welcoming new Wikipedia editors is surely a good thing, but you should employ some discrimination. I see you just welcomed User:Mohammed Gin; a look at what they have done would have revealed that this is a promotional account set up to write a single promotional article (which I speedied, hence your welcome showing up on my watchlist).

@TheLongTone: That's why I used the welcome message for people writing autobiographies. I guess I should've used the spam one, but close enough. —C.Fred (talk) 15:36, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So it goes. I'm intrigued by the idea of an alcoholic drink named after the prophet...TheLongTone (talk) 15:44, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Great Meme War

I would politely request you revive the page. It is an event being talked about by more and more Internet Denizens and was decisive in the 2016 US Election. To have it not archived is an actual bash on modern history. The only reason there isn't a huge chatter about this topic at the moment is because it is new, but news stories are already popping up and close to at least 1 million people know of the event.

[1] Pro-Donald Trump subreddit with over 250k users discussing the event

[2] News Article.

I would also source that Encyclopedia Dramatica has a page for The Great Meme War kept up, however Wikipedia refused my link. A quick Google search finds it.
