Hi Exemplo347,

I am wondering if you will please reinstate my previous page information so that I can edit the content to be conforming to guidelines?

Thanks for any help you can provide me. Have a nice day.

VortexMKTG (talk) 13:20, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

Greetings @VortexMKTG:. Have you read the Conflict of Interest notice that has been posted on your page? You should do this urgently, and follow the procedure it outlines. The administrator who deleted your article is @SouthernNights: who may restore your deleted article if they feel it is appropriate. They are under no obligation to do so, however, and if you do not address the concern regarding your Conflict of Interest then you may have some difficulties. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 13:26, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for your help, Exemplo347. I cannot seem to find a talk page for @SouthernNights. How might I alternatively contact them?

VortexMKTG (talk) 13:34, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

@VortexMKTG: Can you first confirm to me that you have read the WP:COI page? Exemplo347 (talk) 13:39, 27 March 2017 (UTC)


Yes, I have read the conflict of interest page. I have requested for a username change, pending approval. And I was mistaken by the functionality of Wikipedia's page creation tool. After reading through Wikipedia's guideline pages, I thought that by "saving" my page, it would make it so that I could return to the page and it would be saved in a cloud in the instance my computer had malfunctioned. Until the page had been deleted, I did not realize it had been published by my pressing of the "save" button. I had every intention to go back and polish the content with credible references. For the future, now knowing the functionality, I will incorporate all sources and content in one sitting. I only request the original content to provide myself a jumping off point. The content will undergo rigorous changes before it is again vetted by the Wikipedia administrative process.

Thank you for your continued collaboration. Have a nice day.

VortexMKTG (talk) 13:47, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

@VortexMKTG: If you contact SouthernNights on their talk page (just click on their name in my comment, and then on the "Talk" tab to get to their talk page) then they may be willing to supply you with the deleted text. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 13:54, 27 March 2017 (UTC)

Trout

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

All of that speedy deletion crap was uncalled for and unnecessary. President (talk) 22:21, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

@THE PRESIDENT: Yes, well, the fact that the article has been Speedily Deleted kind of makes your Trout turn into a boomerang. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 22:23, 29 March 2017 (UTC)

Vats

Hey, thanks for editing on "Siddhant Vats". It's our responsibility to protect pages of fellow Indian entrepreneurs. Can you please look more into the article as to what references are being lacked to avoid its deletion?

As the article has so many articles by so many international newspapers.

I am trying to learn too and any help would be appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ronks123 (talkcontribs) 02:14, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

how do i get the article page kharenhill back so i can work it on a sandbox as i didnt have a copy and have lost my work. Please advise if you can get me a copy and if you can put it on my sandbox. I didnt think it would be deleted. ThankyouRhyH (talk) 17:52, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

@RhyH: Greetings. I see you have already contacted the Administrator who deleted your article. They are the person you should talk to regarding this issue, although you should bear in mind that while it is highly likely they will restore your article into your sandbox, they are under no obligation to. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 18:07, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Can you confrim how I contact this person officially. I have not had a response on if they can reinstate the page on my sandbox. I had put a lot of work into it and dont want ot start from scratch. I appologise as i am learning how to do this at the same time as tryng to create a page. Thankyou so much. is it possiblefor you to access it being an administrator. it seemed from his page that he was taking a break from Wikipedia and i would like to keep on with getting this right. Thankyou RhyH (talk) 20:34, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

@RhyH: They HAVE responded to you, the answer is on their talk page. Any further correspondence about this issue should take place there. I am unable to assist with this, as the Administrator you are already dealing with IS responding to you. Please direct your questions or comments to them, as there's nothing further I can do about it. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 20:39, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

Thankyou. I will look thereRhyH (talk) 02:55, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

I cant find where you are talking about? I looked on the persons page and cant find the talk page. Am i missing something.Can you point me in the right direction?RhyH (talk) 03:06, 30 March 2017 (UTC)

@RhyH: - Okay, look - you've been posting on the Administrator's talk page - see here - so clearly you DO know where it is. They may not respond straight away, but they have been responding, and I see you haven't answered their request to provide them with proof of reliable sourcing. They are the person you should be dealing with, and as I've already pointed out, I'm unable to help you with it. Address all questions to them, not to me.

Well, is that a yes or a no? Exemplo347 (talk) 07:42, 31 March 2017 (UTC)

What happened?

I noticed a flurry of activity in my absence on my user page this morning, ending with a notice that I was somehow the subject of an investigation, but with a red-link where the link to the investigation should have been. I reverted to the last known good page. Do I need to do anything else? Am I somehow under suspicion? I noticed that one of the actors was a "Ubiquity2", with whom I have no known connection. I am asking you because your name accompanied one of the restorative actions. Thanks for your help. ubiquity (talk) 15:41, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Ubiquity: you had the ill fortune to become an object of interest to a rather malicious sockpuppeteer, who enjoys creating deletion discussions for random articles and for other editors' user pages and user talk pages. The "investigation" was deleted as an attack on you. It sucks, but fortunately the admins tend to be very quick with the block button when this person is concerned. I think he must be at well over 500 socks by now. --bonadea contributions talk 16:03, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
That's pretty much what I was typing. @Ubiquity: - I don't think you're under any suspicion so you shouldn't worry. I spotted the attempt to delete your talk page (yes, really) and ended up adding the two sockpuppets to an ongoing sockpuppet investigation here. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 16:06, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

OK, thanks. ubiquity (talk) 16:10, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

Ugh, unfortunately it's still going on. I found this: Articles for deletion/User:Ubiquity. No notice on my own page, of course. Anything I can/should do about this? Or just wait until all this guy's stuff gets cleaned up? ubiquity (talk) 16:37, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

DYK for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (song)

On 4 April 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (song), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the theme song for the television series The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is actually called "Yo Home to Bel-Air"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (song). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (song)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Regarding previous nomination for Deletion of Hochschule für jüdische studies

@User:Exemplo347, I forgot to mention that one of the reason for nomination of deletion of that article was editing done by the subject of the article or by a person with a close connection to the subject (e.g., public relations employees) WP:COI. If you can see the creator of the page Hochschule für jüdische studies, you should have noticed that. The article seems like a blatant advertisement of the institution rather than providing its importance of being at Wikipedia.

Furthermore, the article has more usage of a foreign language (I suppose German). So the article will better suit with improvements on German Wikipedia, rather than in the English one.

Bishal revenger (talk) 14:22, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

@Bishal revenger: If you read WP:DELREASON you will see the list of reasons that the Wikipedia community has decided are valid - a Conflict of Interest is not a reason on the list. If you scroll down further, you will see a list of alternatives to deletion, including cleanup - which is what the article requires. Hopefully that clears it up (and please don't quote bits of policy back to me). Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 14:29, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing the doubt. And I didn't intend for picking on you. Apologies if it looked so. Cheers Bishal revenger (talk) 14:40, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

RE: Habitat

Hey, I'm not sure why you undid the recent revision I made to the Habitat (video game) wikipedia page. It was mentioned in the edit summary that it had already been discussed in the talk page that a revision was needed. The creator of both of these virtual worlds technologies stated that it should be seperate and they previously existed for many years as seperate pages. The recent merge was done by a user unfamiliar with the intimacies of the technologies and I am acting on the creators blessing. Can you please undo the undo that you made? Thank you.

RenoProject (talk) 15:31, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

Firstly, can you explain very specifically what your connection is to the creators of the products in question? Exemplo347 (talk) 15:32, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

I am talking to them directly right now on Slack as part of the Habitat revival project mentioned in the wiki. http://www.renoproject.org/habitat/evidence.png RenoProject (talk) 15:35, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

You need to read through WP:COI firstly, and then WP:OWN - if you want to suggest a major change to an article, the correct procedure is to discuss it on the Talk page of the article in question. Wikipedia articles are not changed at the behest of people who are involved with the subject. Exemplo347 (talk) 15:38, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

What is the criteria for allowing the major change to take place? I have listed an explanation on the talk page of the article in question but what needs to happen in order for a major change to be allowed through? Do other wikipedia users also have to comment on the talk page agreeing or disagreeing and giving evidence as to why? RenoProject (talk) 15:57, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

The process is, you should propose the change on the talk page of the article in question. Experienced editors will then discuss the change and will make the changes they feel are appropriate - this can take time, but there's no rush - Wikipedia doesn't have a deadline. As you'll have read at WP:COI, you should make it clear what your conflict of interest is when you're proposing the change. Any further answers to questions about conflict-of-interest-related editing can be found at WP:COI. Good luck with your future editing. Exemplo347 (talk) 16:01, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

I did read the entire section it just seems that a lot of the information does not pertain to my case. Is this just a copy and paste warning? I will get the sources fixed and make sure to improve the content's notability, but other than that your assumptions are mistaken. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DayanaFabiche (talkcontribs) 13:18, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

Tips to Creating a Page without it being sent to Speedy Deletion?

Tips to Creating a Page without it being sent to Speedy Deletion? Please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TheNovaPrime (talkcontribs) 18:43, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

@TheNovaPrime: Well, the problem with your article is that it's an advertisement, rather than an encyclopaedia entry. Wikipedia is not a place to promote things. I'd advise you to use the Article Creation Wizard in the future - you can create a draft that way and submit it for review by experienced editors. Good luck with your future editing! Exemplo347 (talk) 18:47, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

SOUNDKODE speedy deletion

Hi there Exemplo347,

I contested the speedy deletion as the page was indeed not created to be a promotional tool. Could you please review my response? If there are certain items which need to be changed, I will be happy to make them. Best regards - TimeForTruth (talk) 12:38, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

@TimeForTruth: Greetings. There are actually three issues with your article. The first - and most serious - is the issue of copyright violation. Wikipedia cannot accept articles that are copied & pasted from elsewhere. Secondly, the article is promotional and Wikipedia is not a place to promote people. Thirdly, the article gives no indication of significance - why should there be a Wikipedia article about this person? These problems are so serious that the article, in its current form, has no place on Wikipedia. I'd advise you to use the Article Creation wizard in future - that way you can create a draft and submit it for review before it is published. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 12:42, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
I wrote why the article is not a promotional tool in the contention. Did you have time to read that? I will change the structure of the information immediately. Thank you for advising me on this issue. I was unaware of the copy/paste issue. TimeForTruth (talk) 12:44, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
@TimeForTruth: Again, let me emphasise this - you need to start again, using the Article Creation wizard. Your current article is eligible for Speedy Deletion and this can happen at any time without warning. Exemplo347 (talk) 12:48, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
@Exemplo347: I have done just that. I have a rewritten article with references and a discography which aligns with Wikipedias requirements for relevancy. The draft is submitted. TimeForTruth (talk) 13:33, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
@TimeForTruth: That's excellent, hopefully the editor that reviews it will help you to get your article accepted. Good luck! Exemplo347 (talk) 13:39, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Hey, I saw you nominated my article for speedy deletion. I have to disclose I have no connection to said person.

Please reconsider the request for deletion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spookyseamawn (talkcontribs) 21:19, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Just disclosed article on COI and disclosed it in my user page.

@Spookyseamawn: As you will see at WP:COI, you are not allowed to edit the article any further. You are allowed to suggest changes on the Talk page of the article but you must not edit the article itself. Exemplo347 (talk) 21:47, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

comment on your comment ref: Sheika randa Al Banna's page

Hello Examplo 347 ( if I am not wrong ) Your resume is impressive! you seem to be polite as well, ( i like how you said if I upset you please share) In a way not that you upset me, but your comments were hurtful towards notable ex-wives.. ( I am one of those that you seem to dismiss and diminish) anyway back to your comment on Sheika Randa: She is NOT just and ex-wife of the extremely notable Sheik Mohammed Bin rashid Al-Maktoum, Emir Of Dubai, but she is the mother of his first born child Sheika Manal Al-Maktoum Al-Nahyan, wife of Sheik Mansour Al-nahyan from Abud-Dhabi ruling family.

If this is not notable enough?? what is?? If you don't know much about her biography it's because it was suppressed for years. Don't Suppress us ( the exes) anymore than that please!!! be nice! if you feelit is your duty to discourage the page, do so; but please don't hurt us more than we have been hurt though the years by the NOTABLES! I hope that you will re-consider and I pray you will encourage such a page to post! Us, the so-called ex-wives are hoping and praying it stays.. some dignity back for us as well along the way thank you for your time. REGARDS Mrs. X P.S Wikipedia has a page of a similar case much less notable than Sheika Randa ( jinan Hareb) was able to post a wikipage just because she had some publications in which she claimed to have been one of the wives of King Fahed whom I have known... So if notability comes through some prints? through he said she said? then Wikipedia is unjust in their postings thanks again — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.139.2.15 (talk) 23:24, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

P.S from the exes. ( sorry new to talk) BTW,

Like I said this is our first time on wiki talk etc.. I hope this reaches you. Just wanted to bring to wiki's attention that sheika Randa has had publications as well.. if that's what wiki relies on ( example the "Jinan Hareb page) as recent as september 2016; Arab times among them wrote huge articles few others as well in Arabic, French and English all make references to her being the ex wife of the ruler and mother of his first child. Maybe some of the wiki editors are really missing the point here.. Yes! people can gain notability through marriages.. in this case it is much more than just a simple marriage! thank you dear for your time.. sorry we are not professionals exes... let's hope we wrote in the correct page. we have no way of checking your replies but all said and done we wanted you, the editors and Wikipedia to know about these factors as well. regards from all Mr.s X's — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.139.2.15 (talk) 23:58, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

RFC Closure

In your recent closure of the RFC at List of Mahinda College alumni you state "No support for the proposal except from the proposer." However Obi2canibe clearly supports the view that the list should be converted to a table, if you read his comments. I accept that there is no consensus but disagree with your reasoning. Dan arndt (talk) 23:15, 10 April 2017 (UTC)

I'm sure that's what you think he means, but he definitely didn't say he supports it. In fact, he says the opposite - he supported the use of lists. You're making an assumption, while I, when closing the discussion, assessed the consensus in a dispassionate way using only the comments in the discussion. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 23:28, 10 April 2017 (UTC)
I intend to seek clarification from those editors who participated in the discussion as to what their exact position is, as it would appear to me that their intention was to support the conversion of the list to a table. If there is an indication contrary to your closing statements then I will be seeking the RFC be re-opened. Dan arndt (talk) 00:17, 11 April 2017 (UTC)
If you genuinely believe that "convert to list" means "convert to table" then go ahead. Exemplo347 (talk) 00:20, 11 April 2017 (UTC)
That's an error on my part - I meant to say "convert to table" which is what I've said in the comments.--Obi2canibe (talk) 10:34, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
Well the outcome stands - converting a list of that nature into a table would make the article barely readable, and there's no reason why it's necessary. Exemplo347 (talk) 11:50, 15 April 2017 (UTC)

Yes, it happens all the time. And I know it's up for deletion because I put it there.

Greetings. You should create a draft in your Sandbox, and then submit it through the Articles for Creation process - being sure that you openly disclose your conflict of interest following the procedure at WP:COI. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 09:42, 20 April 2017 (UTC)

Rejected article

Good afternoon and thank for taking the time to immediately review my first article. I wrote it following the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egon_Zehnder entry as a 'guideline' / example. I also see several lists like for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_executive_search_firms and in my eyes all entries there are promotional too with the same logic.

So, if you could please help me understand why my article is promotional and all the other listings are not, it would be greatly appreciated. Also if I know how to modify or what to delete from the article, so it becomes more neutral (give me please an example of a neutral company page), your advice and guidance will be most welcome. Even if you reject me newest edit, at least I understand clearly the why.

Thanks again, Spiros Tsaltas (talk) 03:23, 22 April 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tsaltas (talkcontribs) 03:08, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

@Tsaltas: The main differences between your draft and the example you provided are the total lack of any promotional language in the example, and the quality of the references. Please read through WP:COI and follow the instructions on that page before you edit further. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 14:45, 22 April 2017 (UTC)

Inquiring about my page- Perturbation Training

You have reviewed the page made by me- PERTURBATION TRAINING. It shows that it is nominated for deletion, but does not mention until when it will be deleted. And it is not viewed by public if you search via Google. Please let me know about the same.

Thank you, Riddhipanchal981 (talk) 19:08, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

@Riddhipanchal981: As you can see by the notice on your Talk page here, there is a deletion discussion taking place because the content you added is a dictionary definition of "Perturbation Training" and is not sufficiently notable for its own article. I redirected your article to an appropriate place (Balance (ability)#Balance training) so you could add your content there, but you reversed my action. My suggestion is that you comment at the deletion discussion about this, as it is not appropriate to discuss this in two places at once. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 19:14, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

New Question

I am writing regarding the article "Draft:Linda Lloyd Jones." Two things, please: 1. Would you please tell me which text is objectionable in terms of copyright. 2. It appears the article has been deleted. Where can I retrieve it to continue editing.

Thank you.Wednesday 0008 (talk) 20:28, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

@Wednesday 0008: Your draft was deleted by RHaworth - they are who you should contact with your queries. I must warn you though, they may not be able to provide you with the text of your draft because it was a copyright violation, but they will advise you of the steps you should take. Exemplo347 (talk) 20:31, 27 April 2017 (UTC)


Thank you for the quick response.Wednesday 0008 (talk) 20:32, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

No problem. Good luck with your future editing. Exemplo347 (talk) 20:33, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Exemplo347,

Can you tell me specifically what text violated copyright in the Draft:Linda Lloyd Jones? All the writing was mine. I did include a direct quote for which I provided a citation. I assume that quote is what caused the deletion?

I haven't heard back from RHaworth regarding retrieving the article. Makes me nervous because it contains the only record of my edits since December 2016. Wednesday 0008 (talk) 22:04, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

I'm afraid you'll need to wait for them. We're all volunteers working across different time zones. Don't worry, there's no rush. They'll get back to you when they can. Exemplo347 (talk) 22:43, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Your tag on a article I created (Huang Qiuyuan)

I saw you tagged that to the article I created, if you don't know Professor Huang Qiuyuan, then check out here https://www.huangqiuyuan.com and https://www.imea.nyc, check out his son here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huang_Tiange. Please remove the tag ASAP. Thanks!:)Mobyvonrobot (talk) 00:25, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

@Mobyvonrobot: I will not be removing the tags, and neither should you. The article you have written - well, copied - is eligible for Speedy Deletion and this can happen at any time without warning. In the future, I suggest you use the Article Creation Wizard to help write your drafts, and then submit them for review before publishing. Exemplo347 (talk) 00:27, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

Linda Lloyd Jones

Wednesday 0008 and I would both like to know whence draft:Linda Lloyd Jones was a copyvio. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:44, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

@RHaworth: I'm unable to point it out because I can't see deleted contributions. Exemplo347 (talk) 10:47, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

Apologies, I did not see your "long list of copyright violations" comment. Please approve the present state. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:54, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) Yo, RHaworth, just to answer your question  :) it whence not. This is the condition of it at Weds0008's last edit; 45% copyvio, which was (as I think you've spotted by now) a direct quote. Was it tagged WP:G12? If so, it should not, as that tells us that 'where there is only partial infringement or close paraphrasing... the article or the appropriate section should be blanked with {{subst:Copyvio}}.' And, indeed, as WP:COPYQUOTE tells also that 'The copied material should not comprise a substantial portion of the work being quoted,'[1] it was probably OK to retain the material. Cheers! — O Fortuna semper crescis, aut decrescis 12:03, 29 April 2017 (UTC)

Fabergé egg closing

Can you please revert your close of the Fabergé egg discussion. I think you totally misread that there was consensus. Option 3 had way more opposes than Option 1, which has only one oppose. Option 3 is contrary to policy and how all articles on WP are named (see my comment on the talk page). If you don't revert, we'll have to go to Move Review, and I'd rather not. Thanks. --В²C 03:56, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Actually, I see you're not even an admin. You had no business closing such a controversial and complicated RM discussion. --В²C 03:58, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
@Born2cycle: You clearly don't understand consensus, not do you understand the Non-admin closure guidelines. By unilaterally undoing Primefac's work, you've gone against consensus. The discussion went on for a long time, and was closed over a month ago. If you had any knowledge at all about procedure, you would have opened another RfC discussion BEFORE reverting the changes that Primefac has implemented. Your actions are what I'd expect from some random I.P. vandal, not an experienced editor, and I'm within a hair's breadth of raising your actions at AN/I. Exemplo347 (talk) 06:03, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
I'm sorry, but in twelve years of Wikipedia work, much of it involving resolving title disputes and related policy and guidelines, I can't recall a more egregious misreading of consensus, and I've seen some pretty bad ones. Deciding option 3 is favored by consensus when it has much more opposition than option 1 is simply unreasonable, especially when that opposition to option 3 is grounded in solid policy-based reasoning consistent with title decision making all over WP.
But never mind the consensus of those participating, what about WP:CONSENSUS - the evaluation of the arguments with respect to relevant policy and guidelines? Well, trying to make titles recognizable to people who are unfamiliar with the topic is a common and understandable RM newbie error. But it's not consistent with policy, guidelines or conventions, and for very good reasons. And yet this was the explicit basis for the decision given in the closing statement.
And the whole thing was mostly decided by people interested in the topic of Fabergé eggs, not necessarily editors who are very knowledgeable with title decision-making on WP. Creating an RFC instead of a multi-page move at WP:RM demonstrates that, not to mention not announcing the discussion at WP:RM or in any of the affected pages but one. An experienced closing editor would have noticed this problem. The lack of announcement at WP:RM is why you had so little participation from title experts. Note that the previous attempt to move one of these titles which did go through RM went down in flames, because in that case enough people were involved who knew what they were doing.
There is no requirement to have a discussion prior to a revert of a change when the change was made without consensus in the first place, as was the case here.
Anyway, all is not lost. If consensus truly exists for adding unnecessary disambiguation to all these titles, then a proper multi-page RM discussion will demonstrate this. Good luck with that. --В²C 06:52, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Look, Wikipedia is not a bureaucracy. Blindly following your interpretation of guidelines to undo things that have been carried out in good faith does not make you a good editor. The fact that you chose to do it without waiting for discussion just makes it worse. Participation at Requests for Closure is thankless enough already, and having someone who claims to be some sort of policy expert undo the work (an act that is itself contrary to policy) isn't helpful. Exemplo347 (talk) 07:10, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

I know the work was done in good faith, but it was misguided. The discussion can and maybe should continue, but hopefully with better understanding about how titles are chosen on Wikipedia and why. If every group of editors with a shared interest in some topic area decided unilaterally how to title "their" articles our titles overall on WP would be chosen incoherently. To prevent that, many editors over many years have hammered out policy, guidelines and conventions, mostly laid out at WP:AT and WP:D. The idea that only some titles within an area are disambiguated might look strange if you look at just those titles, but it's a common practice. In fact, I have a section about this on my home page: User:Born2cycle#Examples_of_naming_consistency. --В²C 07:24, 2 May 2017 (UTC)
You and I both know that you shouldn't have acted without discussion. How you proceed is up to you. Exemplo347 (talk) 07:27, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Please refrain from referring to me as "inexperienced" or "misguided." To be frank, opening this discussion a couple of weeks after consensus was reached simply because you don't agree with it reflects poorly on you. Exemplo347 (talk) 21:17, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

(I moved this from the new RM - it doesn't belong there). I fixed it per your request. Let me know if that's better. I didn't identify you. But striving to make topics identifiable from their titles to anyone unfamiliar with the topic is the hallmark of inexperience with WP title decision-making. There was no consensus and it was a discussion about titles that was not filed at WP:RM. --В²C 21:27, 2 May 2017 (UTC)

Hamish Blakely Article Deletion

Dear Exemplo347,

May I ask for the content of my deleted article to be retrieved so I can use as reference to avoid similar errors in future articles?

I have contacted C.Fred also, requesting the removal of all the speedy deletion notices.I accept that this is in the public domain now but would be very grateful if this removal would be considered.

Many thanks for your assistance. Kind regards, Goldentundra 08/05/2017 Goldentundra49 (talk) 09:23, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

@Goldentundra: The person who deleted your article was Athaenara. If you contact them, they might provide you with the deleted text. It is important for you to realise, however, that the content was purely promotional in nature and therefore the Administrator can justifiably refuse to provide you with the text - Wikipedia is not a place for you to promote yourself. If you truly do meet the standards Wikipedia demands of article subjects then why not wait for someone completely unrelated to you to write an unbiased article?

Thank you for your help on the new page I created. It's my first time so I'm working a little slowly. Hopefully over 2000 citations on google scholar begins to establish notability. 04cah (talk) 22:08, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

@04cah: If you have a read through WP:RS, you'll see the types of sources that articles require. As Wikipedia has notability standards for academics (see WP:PROF), you should focus on sources that provide evidence to support the notability requirements. Good luck with your article!

Restoring factual information

Hello! I just received a message that the edits that I made for a page on The Icarus Project were removed due to lack of neutrality. I completely understand and respect why you have these guidelines, but the information on the page is actually objectively incorrect and there are many factual errors. How can I address these factual errors? Judging by the content of the current page, much of this content was written as a smear campaign effort and includes information that is incorrect, highly biased, and selective information that is misleading. I would love to restore the truth. Thank you! Sadasiangirl (talk) 22:05, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

@Sadasiangirl: Have you read the notices on your talk page - specifically, the Conflict of Interest notice? Please do read it, and follow the procedure it outlines. The links in the notice will answer any questions you may have. Exemplo347 (talk) 22:07, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your speedy reply! Where can I send a draft of my edits for you to proofread? Sadasiangirl (talk) 22:19, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

@Sadasiangirl: The first, and most urgent, thing you need to do is to follow the instructions at WP:COI - you need to declare any conflict of interest that you have. It's not optional, and editors who fail to do this are routinely blocked from editing Wikipedia. If you're open and honest about your connections, editors will be more than happy to work with you. Exemplo347 (talk) 22:22, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

I work for The Icarus Project as the Operations Coordinator. I am more than happy to work with an editor to ensure that the content is neutral and only reflects the facts - not promotion. Thank you very much for your help! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sadasiangirl (talkcontribs) 22:28, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

@Sadasiangirl: Thank you for that. The procedure for formally declaring your conflict of interest is outlined at Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure. Once you have followed that procedure, have a look at WP:PAY - it lists the process that editors with a conflict of interest must follow. Again, the procedure at Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure needs to be followed before you do anything else. The answers to any further questions you may have can be found at the links that I have provided for you. Regards Exemplo347 (talk) 22:34, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

New Page Review - Newsletter No.4

Hello Exemplo347,

Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 813 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that!

But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag. Make use of the message feature to let the creator know about your maintenance tags. See the tutorial again HERE. Get help HERE.

Hi, I am not sure what I did wrong.Kreematismos (talk) 22:32, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

@Kreematismos: It's pretty self-explanatory really. Your recent edits to Recovery Version are not neutral. When I have more time, I'll be going over the article and removing the parts that are not neutral or unencyclopaedic. Wikipedia is not a place to promote things. Exemplo347 (talk) 22:34, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

The article before my editions was just advertising. My additions are from Witness Lee's writings. The comparison of Jn.14:6 is to counter-balance their adv that the version is unbiased. Theophilus did the removals of my additions. Are you the same editor?Kreematismos (talk) 23:53, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

The quotes from Witness Lee himself, contradict what had previously been written.Kreematismos (talk) 00:02, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

I don't wish to argue with you. Are you going to reverse your deletions or not? Saying (on my talk page) that this article is to be "concise" is a red-flag indicating bias. This article is one of the smallest in all of Wikipedia -- AND the deleted info contradicts the existing pretend-scholarship. Bottom line, please reverse or say NO, so that I then appeal your edits.

Re: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Igorevich_Gurevich

Dear Exemplo347,

You once kindly reviewed the article about my former professor Vladimir Igorevich Gurevich, so I'd like to ask you for advice, as I'm not as experienced in Wikipedia, as you are. I subsequently translated that article into Russian. Almost right after the article[2] appeared in Russian Wiki, one of my professor's long-time opponents started spamming his page with demeaning language and references. He makes his edits anonymously as 185.72.227.2 My question is how to block this user as a spammer in Wiki.
