Bozo Vreco Draft Article

Hi Legacypac,

Thank you for checking on my draft Bozo Vreco article. Just so you know, my draft is completely separate from the version written in Bosnian. I do not know who wrote that. When I had searched for a Wikipedia page on Bozo Vreco none had showed up, not even the Bosnian draft, so consider this one completely different. Thanks!

Very good. We need the page in English anyway. Legacypac (talk) 15:32, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi Legacypac--I received a notification that my sandbox and draft Bozo Vreco article have been deleted!!! I searched and could not find it--do you know what happened? Maybe I am not searching the right way? Keep me posted--thanks! RachelWex 23:01, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

It's now at Draft:Božo Vrećo. The little marks (whatever they are called) are causing issues. I'll move it to Draft:Bozo Vreco instead. Legacypac (talk) 23:07, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

Diacritics, for what it's worth. And it should probably stay where it is, given language guidelines at whatnot. Primefac (talk) 23:11, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
I already executed the move. When/if it goes to mainspace someone can decide which is preferred title and make a redirect for the other version. Page has not even been reviewed yet. Legacypac (talk) 23:14, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

Andrew Chow draft

I just deleted a page you had reviewed and submitted to AfC. The page was a straight recreation of the article that was deleted (which you linked to), which makes it a copyright violation, and also it was created by a problematic sockfarm likely involved in undisclosed paid editing. If the article is to be recreated I think it would be best to do it from scratch by locating reliable sources beforehand. Cheers. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:01, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Excellent. Legacypac (talk) 15:03, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Clandestine developments

surrounding The upcoming trial? I think you'll be very interested in this and may wish to chime in there. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:57, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

I don't watch Jimbo's page as it's nonstop nonsense and this is the same old story. Those who refuse to get down and shovel excrement are full of explicit directions, pointed opinions and harsh criticism for those who actually do the hard work. You are hiding what you are doing! Why did you do this or that? Explain these diffs or it's off to ANi! Why bother deleting pages at all there is lots of server space. That page might maybe could be possibly useful someday even though it has no sources and we are not sure who or what it's supposed to be about and we can't ask the editor who plunked it down 7 years ago and buggered off. You did x y and z which I think are a mistake so you have a pattern of incompetence/gaming/some other wiki-sin but I'm ignoring the 5,000 incontestably correct similar actions during the same time period. Oh and my personal favourite - let's find half a sentence of some wiki process text to interpret as narrowly as possible to stop whatever cleanup you are doing today. And when all that does not work, they spend a lot of time trying to change the rules to make cleanup harder, which gives you more processes to watch.
That's today's rant for all the talk page stalkers. I rode almost two hours on a train for 30 cents watching peaceful rice fields pass by with no internet :) The 700 year old temple ruins were pretty interesting but my feet are sore and it's still too hot!

Taku and others

I am not sure what Taku is telling you in the previous message. What I want to tell you is that it is probably not worthwhile taking Taku's drafts individually to MfD as you did for draft:algebra over a monad. Taku has more than 150 drafts some of which have not been touched for three years and nearly all of which are of dubious notability. We have recently been successful in reducing the draftspace heaps of Mad7744 and Adem20. It might be worth raising Taku's stuff at WP:ANB.

Others to watch with large draft space presences are: Captain Assassin! - seems to be turning them over but has a few very old ones and BD2412 - 2000 draft articles - let us wait to see how many are still in draft space in twelve months time. (Note that my draflis.php reports may blow with database errors - they are hammering it rather heavily. If you re-load immediately, they should work because enough has moved into the server's cache.) — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:25, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Excellent info. I'm not planning to deal with the math ones one by one. There are ongoing discussions Wikipedia_talk:Drafts and on the Math project that my odd nom is helping along. We might be going to the notice board soon but I'm seeing movement now on his position. Expansion of G13 Wikipedia_talk:CSD will be a useful tool for these situations.

Taku's Draft subpage

Hi,

I just wanted you to know User:TakuyaMurata/Drafts is no longer in use and also several of the pages linked there are redirects to the mainspace. -- Taku (talk) 09:20, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Ok thanks. Legacypac (talk) 09:24, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

If you are open to it, I wonder if we can just have private talk, that might be more predictive. You suggested I moved some draft pages to my user page. This doesn't make sense to me: isn't the purpose of the draftspace to hold drafts? If you think some drafts are problematic (i.e., not notable), they will still be problematic if I moved them to the user page. In other words, why the space where they belong matter? You also keep mentioning age: again why does it matter they are 6 months old or 6 years? I have been resistant since it's just not making sense. -- Taku (talk) 23:26, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Hey, not sure you will notice, but it appears PantherMan sent this reply in response to your notification that their draft had been nominated for deletion.

Warning

First of all, do not leave templates on the talk pages of experienced editors, as it shows you only wish to be disruptive and not talk things out. Secondly, consider this your warning about edit warring over multiple pages. If you keep it up, I will see to it that you are blocked alongside Taku as your editing is just as bad. Stop this nonsense while you are ahead. — nihlus kryik  (talk) 21:58, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

I've reported you. If you are an experenced editor you already know not to modify other people's signed posts, especially after they restore the unwanted changes. Legacypac (talk) 22:01, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

WP:TPO, policy overrules your feelings. Get a clue. — nihlus kryik  (talk) 22:02, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
TPO does not support what you are doing and the disruption you are facilitating. Let's have an Admin look at your behavior rather than further discussion. Legacypac (talk) 22:06, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
Disambiguating or fixing links, if the linked-to page has moved, a talk page section has been archived, the link is simply broken by a typographical error, etc. It doesn't get clearer than that. Also, two reverts is not an edit war. So you will only be seen as further disruptive. — nihlus kryik  (talk) 22:08, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

"Never edit or move someone's comment to change its meaning, even on your own talk page. Striking text constitutes a change in meaning, and should only be done by the user who wrote it or someone acting at their explicit request." but nice try to use a carve out for non-controversial stuff. Legacypac (talk) 22:17, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Are you incapable of reading? "Some examples of appropriately editing others' comments" right below that. Seriously? — nihlus kryik  (talk) 22:30, 27 August 2017 (UTC)
exceptions for uncontroversial stuff don't override the principle at the start. You have now vandalized many of my signed posts after I warned you. You need to be blocked to stop this disruption. Legacypac (talk)
Actually, that's exactly what it does. — nihlus kryik  (talk) 22:34, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Hey, I apologize for my behavior

I should not have reverted your edit. The whole golden rule thing; I would not have liked if that were done to me. Please feel free to make whatever changes you feel are appropriate. No worries; it won't happen again. Fluous (talk) 21:17, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

AfC submission

Hey, you recently submitted another draft of mine, Draft:Lars Trier Awards, as an AfC. Fortunately or unfortunately, I already created/revised an article based on that draft (List of awards and nominations received by Lars von Trier), so an AfC submission doesn't really make sense. Therefore, you could delete the draft (or whatever the right thing to do is in that situation). But this problem leads me to a question you might be able to answer. Since I can't delete the drafts after I made them into an article, what can I do so they don't get pointlessly submitted later? Should I blank them or is there something else I could do? I have currently two other drafts like that. Thanks Felida97 (talk) 20:21, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

Normally you should move the Draft to mainspace with the move button (hidden under more). If you already copy pasted you should redirect the Draft to the mainspace page or request a history merge. I've redirected this one. Legacypac (talk) 22:56, 9 September 2017 (UTC)

Evidence submitted for Arthur Rubin case

In relation to your evidence submissions at Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Arthur Rubin/Evidence#Evidence presented by Legacypac, please be aware that the Arbitration Committee does not take evidence on subpages into account. Please remove the link to all such subpages from the Evidence page, and transfer what material you want to submit for consideration to your own section (within the confines of the word limit). If you would like an increase in this limit up to 1000 words, please ask on the talk page. Please also note that the scope of this case should also be discussed on the talk page. For the Arbitration Committee, Mdann52 (talk) 19:48, 10 September 2017 (UTC)

In other words, "please dance precisely to Arbcom's tune because they're not taking this case or anything related to TRM seriously. It would be better if we could ban TRM from Wikipedia altogether, so we're really disappointed that you and a number of others have seen fit to disagree with Arbcom's attempts to hang, draw and quarter TRM here and even more disappointed that no evidence has been given to allow us to do that, we'll have to do that ourselves with our completely unbiased Arbs, some of whom have (ironically) been uncivil to TRM". Yup, that's how it works. Is there a mechanism for abolishing this shambolic bunch and calling new elections early? The Rambling Man (talk) 19:40, 11 September 2017 (UTC)
TRM, I don't have the experience at ARBCOM you do (nor do I want to!) but it looks like I need to sit at a computer and rework my evidence tonight. I don't think AR will be banned but perhaps he will lose the tools which will make him less dangerous. Legacypac (talk) 20:36, 11 September 2017 (UTC)

List of fictional characters with disabilities

Just curious about how the list went from being approved to being deleted to being restored - I saw each happen but I was on a work computer away from home and my work ip is blocked, preventing me from editing. I'm glad it's back - I don't usually do lists so after a certain point I put it in to the articles for creation to get a second opinion for publishing it. So I was puzzled to have it deleted as untouched since I was waiting til it was agreed before doing any further editing.... ☕ Antiqueight haver 11:59, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

Antiqueight, to answer your question, it was because the draft was nominated (improperly) for G13 (i.e. "stale draft") deletion. The error was noticed and the draft was restored.
Legacy, I know everyone makes mistakes, but given that you submitted the draft and G13'd it (after it had been accepted) it leads me to think you're blindly clicking without looking. Please be more careful with this sort of thing Primefac (talk) 14:18, 17 September 2017 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
Weird it was already accepted to mainspace yet still showed up on the StaleDraft report. Thanks to whoever caught that. Legacypac (talk) 15:51, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
Seems like the report isn't updating as often as it should (or as often as would be ideal), since you submitted the draft one day before it was accepted (two days before it was CSDd). It was restored due to a REFUND request. It could also be a cache issue on your end; might be worth talking to MusikAnimal about it. Primefac (talk) 16:09, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
Thanks all for the reply. I was dead curious as to how it had happened. Glad it's restored. I'll put in some more time on it. ☕ Antiqueight haver 16:26, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

Yes there have been some report issues. A few deleted pages kept showing up on the list. I've noticed a few promoted or redirected pages continue to show on list the next day. Normally I catch them, but evidemtly missed this one. I got to the bottom of a list which once had 10,000 pages on it - and over 5,000 when CSD G13 expanded several weeks ago. There have been only a handful of what could be considered errors and complaints and a whole lotbof promlematic lages deleted. This list has no sources - I'm surprised it got accepted a AFC, but it's ok. Legacypac (talk) 16:27, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, I did get your ping at User talk:MusikBot/StaleDrafts/Report/AfC, and indeed it looks like I forgot to commit the code that makes the AfC version of that report. It's there now! :) Will updating daily be enough? The queries take a little while to run so we can't do it in real time or anything. I suppose you'll always have to re-check the revision history and make sure the draft hasn't been modified since the report was made — MusikAnimal talk 16:40, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
I'll comment on the report talk pages. Daily is plenty often. Legacypac (talk) 16:53, 17 September 2017 (UTC)

Anand Padmanabhan Page Deletion

Hi Legacypac

Can you please let me know why the page on Anand Padmanabhan was deleted? I have also given a reason for this page to be present in the encyclopedia. Please let me know if you can get back to me on this?

The page did not make a creditable claim of significance.[2] Legacypac (talk) 18:59, 20 September 2017 (UTC) pinging User:RickinBaltimore who would be Admin to talk to and who should delete the talk page too. Legacypac (talk) 19:02, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

FYI

I restored the undisclosed paid template on PG Paper Company until Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Jacob O'Brien is acted upon by a CU. TonyBallioni (talk) 21:37, 23 September 2017 (UTC)

Ok, the page is neural, the business notable and it's well cited. The owner has a OBE amd is therefore notable too. Legacypac (talk) 22:01, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
Thanks for your work looking at it. I was unsure as to the owner: I was under the impression that we did not count OBE as qualifying under ANYBIO (this is the most recent discussion I could find on it). TonyBallioni (talk) 22:38, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
I'm not an expert on that, but an OBE sure can't hurt. I recall another page where little was known about the person but an OBE was judged to be enough on its own to pass notability. Legacypac (talk) 22:48, 23 September 2017 (UTC)
A quick look (I may have course have missed something) suggests to me that that the owner's OBE doesn't contribute to the company's notability - although I too was always under the impression that an OBE is good for a BLP. I think Tony's SPI case is well founded and that we should go with that for the time being, at least until we get the CU report, and if you can turn up anything more it would be appreciated.

Agreed, the OBE does not help the company. I came on this reviewing Unreviewed new pages by new users that predate ACTRIAL. Legacypac (talk) 01:01, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Draft:George Payne Cossar

I don't think it appropriate for you to move un-submitted sandbox entries into draftspace and submit them yourself. I have a many user sandboxes myself and I'd be horrified if someone stole my work.

Further, the decline on that draft was correct, as the sourcing did not support the claims of notability. Again, the editor that wrote the user sandbox entry in 2011 was ignorant of the process and you should not have inserted yourself. Complaining after the decline is laughable. Why not accept the draft yourself? You're not helping AfC by introducing more work for other editors to deal with. And if you want to complain, why not ping that editor or contact them on their talk page? You're just spitting into the wind to make a silly comment about how the subject is notable.

Please re-think what you're doing here on Wikipedia. Chris Troutman (talk) 20:35, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing the page Draft:George Payne Cossar. I'm working a backlog that occasionally yields a viable page while clearing out crap that should be deleted. Every contribution is released for use the second you save it, so don't be horrified. I seriously doubt the editor that wrote the page 6 years ago and left the site would be upset about me trying to get the page into mainspace.

The decline was incorrect because the subject, as sourced, meets WP:NPOL #1 as I articulated. 32 years in a US state legislator and having a state park named for you gets you an article. Further there is no way that page would be deleted or even nominated for AfD. I can't move the page directly into article space because of a very ill advised unsubstantiated restriction. Now maybe one of my many talk page watchers will accept the draft. Carry on. Legacypac (talk) 20:52, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia.

AN/I notice about altering, deleting, or striking out other editors' talk page comments

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Bright☀ 10:51, 28 September 2017 (UTC)

No big deal

I already said the above heading at the ANI, but I hate that place so I thought I'd put it here too: you really didn't have to restore that comment. It was clearly removed on accident, I saw it at the time, did nothing, and promptly forgot about it. I'm sorry its being brought up now, I wouldn't have even remembered it if I wasn't pinged. No need to remove it again, but you went the extra mile there. Anyway, all the best :) TonyBallioni (talk) 16:16, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
