Declined speedy deletion nomination of Mersalaayitten

Hello ChamithN. Speedy deletion work is important and I do appreciate the effort. I would just ask that you please review the criteria carefully because accuracy is also important. On that issue, I have declined your speedy deletion nomination of Mersalaayitten as lacking context under CSD A1. That criterion did not apply because it is only for articles where you literally cannot identify the subject of the article from its text. While the article was quite short, what it was about was plain. You also tagged it under CSD A7, which did not apply because the article was about a song, and A7 only applies to articles on real persons or groups, individual animals, organizations, web content and organized events.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 03:04, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

@Fuhghettaboutit: Thank you for your explanation. I admit that I was hasty with the addition of speedy deletion tag, where I didn't even take time to realize what the article is really about. It just seemed obvious to me that subject doesn't meet WP:GNG. Nevertheless, I'll be cautious next time when tagging for speedy deletion. -- Chamith (talk) 03:16, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Sure. I would suggest a prod tag instead.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 03:17, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
I nominated it for deletion at AFD instead. -- Chamith (talk) 03:20, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

MTL Blog Inc

Hello ChaminthN

I am not sure what exactly needs to be clarified on the MTL Blog Inc page. For example, what is the difference between MTL Blog Inc and the Thrillist Media Group page? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrillist_Media_Group

I appreciate any constructive feedback you can offer! Also, how can I input photos into the article? There are screenshots from CBC news that fit well into a section of the article that I found online.

Regards,

Matt — Preceding unsigned comment added by MattOhMTL (talkcontribs) 16:42, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

@MattOhMTL: Hi Matt, the difference between them is that Thrillist Media Group article provides several links to secondary and reliable sources and meets the criteria of general notability guideline. However, MTL Blog Inc article provides no links to external sources. Therefore it's difficult verify the accuracy of cited content. Citing reliable sources is crucial when it comes to verifiability policy of Wikipedia. Right now, most of the sources you cited can't be verified and seem to be Self-published sources. Thus it could cause a conflict of interest. In order to contest the deletion process the article must meet general notability criteria of Wikipedia. You may removed the PROD (proposed deletion tag) template if you could improve the article and address the issues I just pointed out. And also when writing an article you should avoid puffery at any cost. Always maintain a neutral point of view. Cheers! -- Chamith (talk) 17:34, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Follow this guideline to input photos to an article. In order to add photos an article you have to upload those photos to Wikimedia servers first. Before doing so you have to make sure that your images fall into one of these categories. -- Chamith (talk) 17:39, 14 August 2015 (UTC)

Hello ChamithN,

Okay I understand now, more third party sources. I originally confused the official websites as sources that could be used for verification. I will look into revising the article. Thanks for the clarifications.

Cheers — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.130.67.24 (talk) 12:48, 17 August 2015 (UTC)


Hello ChamithN,

I have added sources and clarified much of the page. Does it meet the Wikipedia standards now? Also, I looked into uploading images, and it says I must have done 10 edits to be able to upload photos. I am not entirely sure how or where to upload the photos to be able to retrieve them for linking into the article (since I have about 2 photos to upload that are relevant). The articles on how to upload the photos are more confusing since there are so many options and wikilanguage. Could you please clarify the process?

Thank you again,

MattOhMTL (talk) 16:02, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi again MattOhMTL, while most of your citations are valid the way you cited them is incorrect. You actually posted them as external links, not inline citations. For example if you want to cite the article [http://www.trademarkia.com/narcity-86475444.html] you have to place them between <ref></ref> tags. So you citation should be like this, <ref>[http://www.trademarkia.com/narcity-86475444.html]</ref>. Also, don't cite Facebook as a source as it isn't considered a reliable source. You have to link to the precise article (don't link to the homepage) where it explicitly mentions the cited content. For now I'll remove the proposed deletion tag and move your article to a draft space as you are working on it. Best, -- Chamith (talk) 16:24, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
And by the way, you can refer to Thrillist Media Group to get an idea about how a start-class Wikipedia article should be. -- Chamith (talk) 16:26, 18 August 2015 (UTC)


Hello ChamithN,

Perfect, I appreciate it!

Thanks again,

What is the value of using “ ” in edits?

Hi there. Okay, I understand that nbsp is a non-breaking space. But that is a raw HTML entity, correct? Why do some editors create edits with nbsp in them such as edits here? Thanks in advance for the clarification. --SpyMagician (talk) 04:06, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

As you might you already know it's actually done by a script called User:Cameltrader/Advisor which automatically suggests improvements to the formatting. WP:ADVISOR#Features mentions "if an mdash or ndash is preceded by a space, it had better be a non-breaking one". This is mainly because WP:MOSNUM#Non-breaking spaces recommends to use non-breaking spaces to prevent causing linebreaks in some situations. However, If &ndash; wasn't preceded by a space then the script won't try to modify it because, as there aren't any whitespaces it's unlikely to cause linebreaks. So as you can see there was a space before the &ndash; here which made the script suggest a non-breaking space rather than a whitespace+&ndash;. This is however, not a rule, but rather a formatting method to improve article layout. I hope you'll get my explanation. Cheers! -- Chamith (talk) 05:05, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

WikiProject Good Articles's 2015 GA Cup - Round 3

WikiProject Good Articles's 2015 GA Cup - Round 3

Greetings, all! We hope that everyone had a nice summer.

Saturday saw the end of Round 2. Things went relatively smoothly this month. The top 2 from 4 pools, plus the top participant (the wildcard, or "9th place") of all remaining competitors, moved onto Round 3. We had one withdrawal early in Round 2, so he was replaced by the next-highest scorer from Round 1. Round 2's highest scorer was Pool D's Tomandjerry211, who earned an impressive 366 points; he also reviewed the most articles (19). Close behind was Zwerg Nase, also in Pool D, at 297 points and 16 articles. The wildcard slot went to Good888. Congrats to all!

Round 3 will have 9 competitors in 3 pools. The key to moving forward was reviewing articles with the longest nomination dates, as it has been in every round up to now. For example, 2 competitors only needed to review 2 articles each to win in their pools, and each article were either from the pink nomination box (20 points) or had languished in the queue for over 5 months (18 points). The GA Cup continues to be a success in many ways, even with fewer competitors this time. For some reason, the competitors in the 2015 GA Cup have reviewed fewer articles in Round 2, which has made the judges scratch their head in confusion. We've speculated many reasons for that: the summer months and vacations, our competitors are saving their strength for the final rounds, or they all live in the Pacific Northwest and the heavy wildfire smoke has affected their thinking. Whatever the reason, Round 2 competitors reviewed almost 100 articles, which is a significant impact in the task of reviewing articles for GA status. We've considered that the lower participation this competition is due to timing, so we intend to discuss the best time frame for future GA Cups.

For Round 3, participants have been placed randomly in 3 pools of 3 contestants each; the top editor in each pool will progress, as well as the top 2 of all remaining users. Round 3 will start on September 1 at 0:00:01 UTC and end on September 28 at 23:59:59 UTC. Information about Round 3 and the pools can be found here.

Good luck to the remaining contestants, and have fun!

Cheers from Figureskatingfan, 3family6 and Jaguar, and MrWooHoo.

WikiCup 2015 September newsletter

The finals for the 2015 Wikicup has now begun! Congrats to the 8 contestants who have survived to the finals, and well done and thanks to everyone who took part in rounds 3 and 4.

In round 3, we had a three-way tie for qualification among the wildcard contestants, so we had 34 competitors. The leader was by far Scotland Casliber (submissions) in Group B, who earned 1496 points. Although 913 of these points were bonus points, he submitted 15 articles in the DYK category. Second place overall was Philadelphia Coemgenus (submissions) at 864 points, who although submitted just 2 FAs for 400 points, earned double that amount for those articles in bonus points. Everyone who moved forward to Round 4 earned at least 100 points.

The scores required to move onto the semifinals were impressive; the lowest scorer to move onto the finals was 407, making this year's Wikicup as competitive as it's always been. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:

  1. Belarus Cas Liber (submissions), who is competing in his sixth consecutive Wikicup final, again finished the round in first place, with an impressive 1666 points in Pool B. Casliber writes about the natural sciences, including ornithology, botany and astronomy. A large bulk of his points this round were bonus points.
  2. Smithsonian Institution Godot13 (submissions) (FP bonus points), second place both in Pool B and overall, earned the bulk of his points with FPs, mostly depicting currency.
  3. Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions), first in Pool A, came in third. His specialty is natural science articles; in Round 4, he mostly submitted articles about insects and botany. Five out of the six of the GAs he submitted were level-4 vital articles.
  4. Somerset Harrias (submissions), second in Pool A, took fourth overall. He tends to focus on articles about cricket and military history, specifically the 1640s First English Civil War.
  5. Washington, D.C. West Virginian (submissions), from Pool A, was our highest-scoring wildcard. West Virginia tends to focus on articles about the history of (what for it!) the U.S. state of West Virginia.
  6. Somerset Rodw (submissions), from Pool A, likes to work on articles about British geography and places. Most of his points this round were earned from two impressive accomplishments: a GT about Scheduled monuments in Somerset and a FT about English Heritage properties in Somerset.
  7. United States Rationalobserver (submissions), from Pool B, came in seventh overall. RO earned the majority of her points from GARs and PRs, many of which were earned in the final hours of the round.
  8. England Calvin999 (submissions), also from Pool B, who was competing with RO for the final two spots in the final hours, takes the race for most GARs and PRs—48.

The intense competition between RO and Calvin999 will continue into the finals. They're both eligible for the Newcomers Trophy, given for the first time in the Wikicup; whoever makes the most points will win it.

Good luck to the finalists; the judges are sure that the competition will be fierce!

Garbage picking article renaming

You previously opposed a merger of the garbage picking article.

@Akmaie Ajam: I'm sorry but it needs to be reverted, mostly because it's poorly written. As far as I know there's nothing called "Graphics card that support DirectX 9 needed to support Aero". If you could provide a reliable source to backup your claims I'm willing to discuss about this further. And please refrain from providing opinion pieces. I've explained about this in detail on your talk page.--Chamith (talk) 09:53, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

It's ok Akmaie Ajam. I appreciate your concern to improve Wikipedia. Speaking of my reversion, 4.09.00.0900 (RC4) is a version of DirectX. So saying Graphics card that support DirectX 9 needed to support Aero" contradicts the meaning as it's not a graphics card, but a version. I hope you understand why I reverted your edit and not get hurt by it. And, any addition could be challenged if a reliable source is not cited. Which is another reason why I had to remove your content addition. If you need any help in editing feel free to ask on my talk page. Best -- Chamith (talk) 10:04, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Moreover, you can ask another editor to fix typos, grammar mistakes you made in your sandbox project. Collaboration can go a long way here on Wikipedia.

re:"I noticed that you made a change to an article, USB, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed . . ." here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:24.96.210.230

I DID include a reference, a reference to the SAME site, stackexchange, that the defective reference (no url) for the claim pointed to. So if it is legitimate for the claim, it is legitimate for the indication that the claim is disputed. The page I cite (with link INCLUDED, unlike the ref for the claim I'm indicating is disputed) contains additional references. I specifically included that one because it is the SAME site, so to claim one reference is reliable and the other is not is illogical.

I haven't revisited that article and I don't know it this is still relevant. I decided to bring it up because I'm beginning to think there is a problematic general pattern with wikipedia mods to support the status quo rejecting improvements on grounds that apply even more strongly to what the improvements replace.

As if to say "Existing crap is ok. New stuff has to be gold. Crap-replacement must be done with gold. Replacing crap with brass may be an improvement but it can't be allowed because it is contrary to Holy Policy." You might think about passing this observation on. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.96.210.230 (talk) 02:20, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Stack Exchange is not considered a reliable source as it contains user generated content, just like Wikipedia. See WP:RSOPINION for more details. If you can cite a reliable source, you are welcome to restore your content addition. -- Chamith (talk) 02:27, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
Nevertheless you were right about USB having citations from Stack Exchange. So, for now, I think it's fair enough to restore your content. I'll tag it as an unreliable source. -- Chamith (talk) 02:37, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Modern Family

The article Modern Family you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Modern Family for things which need to be addressed.

Disambiguation link notification for October 28

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Gravity Falls, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Variety. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:27, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Broadcast section

I undid one of your edits [1] as I think you are reading WP:TVINTL a bit too strictly with respect to what should be in a broadcast section. Originally people put tables of every single foreign broadcast and that was strongly discouraged. Writing the info in prose with emphasis on English language broadcasts was encouraged, presumption being those were noteworthy for an article on the show. Geraldo Perez (talk) 14:10, 28 October 2015 (UTC)

Yeah I concur. I forgot to take into account that it simply encourages editors to do so. Thank you for your explanation. -- Chamith (talk) 14:27, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
