Help

Hi Chris, You recently reviewed the article I created entitled Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Fostering Through Social Enterprise. Apparently it didn't meet Wikipedia's criteria regarding Notability requirements. When I submitted the piece, I tried to follow the guidelines in Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners, with particular reference to "you must use reliable sources, such as published books, mainstream press publications, and authorized web sites". In your feedback you say: "Even the articles it links to have major concerns with sources and neutrality". Is the problem that Children & Young People Now and Community Care are not regarded as being mainstream press publications? They are both highly regarded publications in the UK social care sector. Is this to do with readership numbers? Similarly, is the British Association for Adoption and Fostering not considered to be an authorised website? Any guidance you can provide would be gratefully received. Thank you for your time. LizHawkins (talk) 10:57, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, sorry to bother you again, I know we just spoke. But I just wanted to clarify that the article I created was ok.

Leslie Cheek Theater

Moved from user page. CharlieEchoTango (contact) 06:06, 28 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Dear ChrisGualteri, Thank you for your advice on my rejected article on the Leslie Cheek Theater. Of course, it makes sense that I should add it under the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts. I took your advice and just did that. This is new to me, so it took a while to make the transitions smooth, but I'll check back now and then to be sure it reads well and, I hope, is not edited out by the museum's PR office! Do you have a quick tip for how to make a wikipedia reference wihin other articles to the Leslie Cheek Theater? Do the double brackets work when the subject is not the page heading? Thanks again!

Rollback

I have granted rollback rights to your account. After a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know and I will remove it. Good luck and thanks. —Tom Morris (talk) 14:24, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Yesterday you deleted the changes I made to a page citing copyright issues. The bio I attempted to post was not copied from anywhere and was written by the subject himself. As it is a bio it may be similiar to something posted elsewhere but it is authentic and therefore of course will look the same. Please advise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by YevKasim (talk • contribs) 14:07, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your changes were an exact match for four entire paragraphs and only minor changes to a fifth before I axed the entire thing. Even if you argue that it was written by himself that does not mean entire paragraphs should be copied over as it was in this case; I posted the link and warned you accordingly, but I'm going to refer this to an admin to be sure. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 16:55, 10 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The subject would like his official bio to appear on his Wikipedia page. I believe Wikipedia wants the most accurate and up to date information presented on their site. As I said earlier, of course his bio is going to look the same, he wrote and uses it for other places where his bio is needed. As for the link you provided, that's from his old Firm and I don't believe it's currently on their website as he is no longer employed there. Should I ask them to take it down? Would that solve this issue? If I have gone about posting this in the wrong way I am happy to take direction as to how best do it. I am not a Wikipedia expert yet and will need to learn all the procedures over time.YevKasim (talk) 17:56, 11 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Chris, just following up on your last message. I would definitely appreciate any help you can offer to get the page updated to a more detailed analysis on the subject's life. I'm not sure if the warning below is in regards to me or not as I just checked the page in question and it still remains as you left it. Please advise. Thanks. YevKasim (talk) 18:57, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- Eh that ones for me; not you. I wish I could take look at it, but I just don't have the time right now. The biography that was posted was good, just use it as a guide and update and source as necessary. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 19:52, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Chris - Thanks. All I'm doing is updating his bio from the law firm where he retired at the end of 2010 (Covington & Burling, LLP). The new post includes his current work at the Center for International Policy and on the Board of WMATA (Metro). I'm also adding his date of birth, which the law firm bio didn't include and I will also update the photo in the next few days. Thanks again for your help.

March 2012

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. →Σ τ c. 06:51, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I did not want to get involved in an edit war so I did go to the talk page and only after a lengthy discussion and seeking third opinions did I restore it as per policy WP:NOTESAL. I've cited my reasons and discussed it at length with the editor who remains anonymous. As the discussion wraps up with the consensus and third opinion was it should be added. I put them back only after arriving at this conclusion per policy in regards to that third opinion on said policy. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 06:59, 13 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Refrain from cursing on my page. When the your own edits are only vandalism do not expect them to last long. You weren't warned for the Chuck Norris or Leeroy Jenkins entries and that entry was removed by another user. Though I did warn for you for defacing the page with that racist and insulting remark. If you could... next time post your comments in a new section as well; rather then in the middle of my user page. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 11:52, 15 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

reversions/removal at trayvon shooting wiki

I'm not sure what you are talking about. You suggest there is some reference to "OLD suspensions", when in reality I referenced what people CLAIMED was the most recent suspension. In other words, these people were claimng something happened that did not happened, all of which is highly relevant. Understand yet? Explain your confusion and/or re-revert your errorWhatzinaname (talk) 00:49, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This should be on the talk page. The claims were true and he has been suspended 3 times by confirmed accounts, one for the pot residue in the baggy, one for vandalism in which the 'burglary tools' were found, and one for attendance. The other previous 2 are not related to the shooting. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 00:55, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

how many times can one person be confused in one wiki? What the heck are you talking about. The father and the teacher LIED about what he was suspened for, full stop. explain yourself. It has NOTHING to do with PREVIOUS suspensions. Whatzinaname (talk) 01:01, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

He was suspended three times. Not one. I've removed the other two; even though it seemed that the reports were the previous statements were lies they did actually happen. A weasely way which misrepresents the situation that was being asked. So I've removed the other two suspensions. Here's the link to prove it. [1] ChrisGualtieri (talk) 01:11, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Where the hell is the suspension for "tardieness" in that link. Where is the suspension for some form of trespassing as described by the father. Again, I've asked you multiple times now to explain your edits and you have miserable failed.Whatzinaname (talk) 01:22, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

A response.

Anonymous IP expresses concern for violence in their purported hometown of Sanford... I respond with a message talking about how we got there and a final gesture of hope that we can overcome such things. You realize that this is simply me trying to acknowledge their fear and trying to get them to see past the immediacy of the moment?

It is NOT

Advocacy, propaganda, or recruitment
An opinion piece
Scandal mongering
Self-promotion, or
Advertising

It IS

An attempt to console while at the same time acknowledging the source of their fear.

Please try to see beyond a simple 2-sided argument that limits us to actually thinking about what people say. If you have something to say, please make it constructive, don't simply attack a person for trying to be a human being about this. -- Avanu (talk) 19:21, 7 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I am not attacking you, but simply informing you that the policies are still relevant even on the talk page. Your speech on your personal beliefs for racism causing unfair jailing is not on topic and its takes a superior tone that is unconstructive and combative citing racebaiting lines and a demeaning tone.

STiki: A new version and a thank you!

Greetings ChrisGualtieri. As the developer of the STiki anti-vandal tool, I would like to thank you for recent and non-trivial use of my software. Whether you just tried out the tool briefly or have been a long-term participant, I appreciate your efforts (as I am sure does the entire Wikipedia community)!

I write to inform you of a new version of the software (link goes to list of new features). This version addresses multiple long-term issues that I am happy to put behind us. Try it out! Provide some feedback!

The STiki project is also always seeking collaborators. In particular, we are seeking non-technical colleagues. Tasks like publicity, talk-page maintenance, advertisement, and barn-star distribution are a burden to technical development. If you are interested, write me at my talk page or STiki's talk page.

As STiki approaches two significant thresholds: (1) 100,000 revert actions and (2) 400 unique users -- I hope to have your support in continuing the efficient fight against unconstructive editing. Thanks, West.andrew.g (talk) 00:01, 12 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Removing BLP PROD

In this edit you removed the BLP PROD tag from the Nurhayati Ali Assegaf article, with the explanation, "removed tag, was never followed up on". You appear to have misunderstood the BLP PROD process. That tag is to remain on the article for up to ten days to allow the author (or anyone else) to find and add sources for this Biography of a Living Person. If no such references have been added in 10 days, the article is deleted. You removed the tag after only 1 day, without any references having been added. Please check carefully before removing BLP PROD templates: doing so without actually addressing the problem is considered vandalism. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 11:09, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I actually added a source before doing that. Just found the bio where the CV came from and fixed that accordingly. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 13:08, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, OK. You didn't format the reference properly to have it appear in the reflist. That was my confusion. WikiDan61^ChatMe!_ReadMe!! 13:11, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for creation/600 Brickell Office Tower - I need your help please

Chris, I need your help with this article. We have been victims of vandalism regarding this building. Someone named Daniel Christensen has been using references against this building writing a very confusing article that stops being informative. Media and other sources use Wikipedia to cite sections for their own publications, but the information posted by Christensen is only partially true. This man took the time to add only all the negative and not focusing on anything positive. Using comments like: this building is "supposed" to be "green"... why should that be allowed? that supposition its nowhere in his references posted, however, he is allowed to make these negative comments and I get flagged and told that I'm doing promotion and advertising when I'm only trying to add facts to improve the articles? It's not my fault the building is incredibly advance in technology and its offering something completely new to the Miami area? However, I know the reason why this man is vandalizing and trashing our article. He even redirected a 600 Brickell page to his Brickell Financial Centre page, which that name is not event the name of the building at opening.

Anyway, the reason I created this new article "600 Brickell Office Tower" is to publish a completely neutral informative page on the building. All we need to say is who owns it, who develops it, how high it is and what's bringing to Miami. All the other comments about debt, loan, financing, tenants that decided to lease somewhere else, etc etc its just hurtful and non-relevant information; these comments are low and malign. None of the other buildings have contributors trying to hurt them, so what is the grudge against 600 Brickell? Besides, most of the references Christensen cite are outdated. And every time I cite a current reference I get flagged. Why is that?

Check out other similar building's articles, just to name a few. NONE of them have such negative comments involved. Espirito Santo Plaza: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Espirito_Santo_Plaza Southeast Financial Center: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southeast_Financial_Center Brickell CitiCentre: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brickell_CitiCentre

Also, Mr. Christensen had took the liberty to make this comment in the Talk section of Brickell World Plaza: "recent media attention // This building has gotten a lot of attention and is now called the Brickell World Plaza. It has the highest leed green building rating and is one of very few for its size. It has some kind of special internet connection with cisco and is supossed to be really something when it opens in august. Today two window panels on the south side near the top were replaced with plywood and earlier one was broken on the front (that's not so green!)

Hi, thanks for the advice, I corrected according to your suggestions and would appreciate more assistance

Hi, thanks for the advice, I corrected according to your suggestions and would appreciate more assistance. The entry in question is the one for the Israeli Jewish Congress. Once it is approved I will do a Hebrew language version. Thanks Michaelijc (talk) 19:47, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Articles for creation/DMAX (film format)

Thank you for your review here: [3]. I wonder how I can improve the article. You state there is a lack of context. Are you thinking about context regarding the situation for movies in China or maybe regarding IMAX or something else? Academica Orientalis (talk) 21:42, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've reverted further than your edit; appears to be the same person vandalizing on multiple IPs. Calabe 1992 00:32, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. You have a new message at Skier Dude's talk page.

Kin iamamiwhoami article rejection

Please explain to me clearly why this cannot be an accepted article when it's clearly an album about to be released. I don't appreciate just a simple link full of complicated excessive stuff I don't understand. Borderings (talk) 14:06, 17 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Terribly sorry, but my posting on the RfC is to be very limited and potent. While you do make a valid point I doubt it will have any impact on that particular discussion. I'd suggest bring the matter up at a later date with a full proposal because the results of this RfC are to be appended to the ArbCom decision, it is too far removed from the goal of the RfC for them to consider at this stage or time. Keep me posted though, I am interested in it. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 13:16, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay! I will try to keep you abreast of any notable change regarding that issue.

But, could you tell me where I would be able to get information about the RfC outcome? Brendon is here 15:36, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It will be posted later. Three admins are going to review the RfC, but it will probably take a week or two before any mention comes out. Should be at the Village Pump then. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 15:38, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just wanted to ask something,

Say, we didn't like the RfC Results in the end. So, can we appeal against the results of that RfC? Brendon is here 15:48, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's ArbCom, you'd have to appeal to them and I doubt they would take it up immediately. These binding resolutions and actions are essentially the highest of the high courts. They have basically final say unless the community as a whole disagrees. Would be probably 6 months to a year before the option even presents itself. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 15:51, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What do you sense will be the result? Any ideas? Just asking. (I'm apprehensive, that's all.) Brendon is here 16:02, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Looking like no hat notes. The question of the images was already 'keep', and other policies clearly are opposed to it as WP:NDA. Many people made the WP:NOTCENSORED argument, but that argument isn't as strong because the policy for WP:NDA exists. Even without massive backing as seen with WP:V or WP:NOTE it still is a policy that directly says no to hat notes and disclaimers. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 16:05, 19 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, Chris. I wanted to ask you about WP:CANVASSING. Nobody warned me about that earlier. Do you think I'll be blocked for unwittingly breaking that? Is my approaching your talk-page a direct contravention of WP:CANVASS?

BTW, I didn't tell you what to like and what not to like. I didn't use the word "support" but "feedback". So, do you think I broke WP:CANVASS? Wikipedia has so many behavioral guidelines.

Man, some people are hateful and vindictive here. They bite newcomers, discourage them from continuing to get involved in Wikipedia processes of their choice, ostensibly trot out their bad-faith against you (based on their whims), want Wikipedia:pillars (virtually, the defining identity of Wikipedia) to be out-right broken in order to accommodate their unfounded POVs.
But amazingly enough, at the end of the day they get to play the "victim"?

On an unrelated note, do you think I've been extraordinarily uncivil (were there no extenuating circumstance) in that RfC? I think I'm being victimized by virtue of my forthright views and their uncensored and essentially unvarnished verbalization. It feels really discouraging, I must say. Brendon is here 06:09, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So now you've manufactured a situation in which you didn't know a guideline because people have pointed out that you knew policy all too well for a newbie? Give me a break Brendon. One could buy that you didn't know the rules prior to canvassing, but you're now pretending, after learning about it not to understand one of the four clearly outlined components of the guideline - "audience." If you selectively chose people whose opinions you agree with that's a no no. You knew that though, of course. It's a very lame canvass and I'm not buying it. Also you're not going to convince anyone that you're new here when you use terms like "bite the newcomers" off hand as if they are part of normal everyday speech when they are actually Wiki jargon.Griswaldo (talk) 11:50, 20 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
