Sekkyfly, What kind of help are you looking for? — Amkgp 💬 02:53, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Presidency of John Mahama

The source you shared rather copied the Wikipedia page John Atta Mills. I copied most of his policies from the John Atta Mills page and I attributed I copied. The text I wrote all have sources as well. Kwesi Yema (talk) 03:47, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Recheck Tejsingh Sendhav

Please recheck Tejsingh Sendhav. I've added (a bit) more detail, including more sources. Do you think the "primary sources" tag can be removed now? MPGuy2824 (talk) 06:55, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Help?

Hi, I see you review draft basketball articles. If you have time, might you be able to take a look at Draft:Jordan Cohen? As I understand it, it was rejected (more than once) when it was an article about a different person, but now that he meets the basketball notability standard, i would think it should be a slam dunk (sorry). Thanks. --2604:2000:E010:1100:CD45:970:B175:7B13 (talk) 10:31, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

I have gone through it, and it passes WP:NBASKETBALL and WP:GNG. There is some kind of confusion. I can see the discussion here and some action here. — Amkgp 💬 10:47, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
I have moved from Draft:Jordan Cohen to Jordan Cohen (basketball) — Amkgp 💬 10:47, 27 November 2020 (UTC)

Humble request

Hi! I know you're busy reviewing other articles but, may I request you to review Love the Way U Lie? Thanks! I appreciate your efforts and hard work.— ArriehM 💬 23:14, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

ArriehM,  Done Please try to add Wikipedia:WikiProject for articles you create next time, — Amkgp 💬 11:02, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Yep, I just forgot to put it, btw, thanks, I appreciate your efforts and hard work. Keep it up! ArriehM (talk) 11:08, 28 November 2020 (UTC)

Misunderstanding

I believe there's a misunderstanding here. The article was originally my draft, but a conflict of interest arose and it was deleted. The text you referenced was a copy-paste of what I wrote here - technically the true violator of copyright - and the editor behind the new iteration was given the words by me. I myself, however, can't contribute to the article. That's why the draft died in the first place. DÅRTHBØTTØ (T•C) 05:15, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

DarthBotto, I leave the decision to the deleting admin to decide. Thank you — Amkgp 💬 05:20, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
@Diannaa and CaptainEek: Can anyone of you help regarding the above? Thank you — Amkgp 💬 12:23, 29 November 2020 (UTC)
The new article is the same as the deleted draft. We need a history merge - I have tagged it for specialist attention and someone should be along shortly to fix the page history.— Diannaa (talk) 14:33, 29 November 2020 (UTC)

Priya Ramanai

I think the page now has enough links to demonstrate notability.AltruisticHomoSapien (talk) 14:33, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

Merbok Assessment

Hello, I’m Robloxsupersuperhappyface. I am here to talk to you about the article Tropical Storm Merbok (2017). You reviewed the article just minutes after it was created and gave me very little time to continue my expansion on it. I would like to kindly ask you to reassess the article since it has had expansions. Thank you! Robloxsupersuperhappyface (talk) 01:43, 2 December 2020 (UTC)

Prep 4

Hi, you have two U.S. hooks side by side here, and also two mural hooks in the same set. Yoninah (talk) 16:30, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Yoninah, swapped the mural from 4 with that of a hook in 5. Separated side by side US hooks in 4. — Amkgp 💬 18:51, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
Thank you. But now you have 3 U.S.-based hooks leading off Prep 4.
BTW we have been running 3 rather than 4 bios per set, and 3 rather than 4 U.S. hooks per set. See queues above. Yoninah (talk) 18:52, 5 December 2020 (UTC)
Yoninah, Do we need to swap again with some other? — Amkgp 💬 18:55, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Request on 11:57:12, 9 December 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Vitvellorecampus


Since already existing page have conflicts in data, the author of the page give negative impression to the Institution's page and which misleads article readers, since we have given better data with many reference to change data in the "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vellore_Institute_of_Technology" but the page author refuses and continuing the article with the same misleading information. We have given deletion of content too there is not any improvement and the author refuses to do that. Since lot of readers are misguided and makes a serious issue so we have created the new article for that. So kindly approve the new page so that the reader of the article will get correct information this is related to student education. Vitvellorecampus (talk) 11:57, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Vitvellorecampus, That looks like WP:CONTENTDISPUTE and looks like a deliberate WP:REDUNDANTFORK. You are also subject to WP:PROMONAME and is more of WP:SPA. @331dot and Oshwah: See this — Amkgp 💬 12:21, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
Vitvellorecampus - We cannot approve drafts where an article already exists on the same subject in the mainspace. Wikipedia is not the place to "write your own version" of an article simply because you have a dispute with another editor on the current revision of the published version. You need to follow Wikipedia's dispute resolution protocol and work things out with the editor. If no agreement can be made, the dispute resolution guide has information and instructions on how to properly handle this. If you have questions or need advice, please let one of us know and we'll be happy to help. :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 12:32, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
