AFC for Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit

Hi, I noticed you deleted the previous versions of this AFC, or at least I believe this is the cause of the struck out links for *all* previous versions. Presumably this was done in reaction to a reported CV. I want to flag that the reported CV affected exclusively *one section* in the AFC, titled "Education and Training at the Gatsby Unit" or something close to that effect, which was added (by me) at some intermediate version. Therefore, deleting only the version(s) affecting the said section should be sufficient for clearing the reported CV. Note that I can no longer verify the reported CV if the version(s) affecting it remain deleted, while I believe I had attributed the source of the content by inserting references. I'd be happy to check the reported CV and fix accordingly, for which I think that the deletion of the previous version affecting this section prevents verification of the reported CV and corrective action. At the same time, I believe it is not justified to delete other previous versions not affecting the said section. Many of the other previous versions of this AFC had content and references that will be helpful to keep track of. Therefore I request to please kindly revert the deletion of all previous versions. Thanks. Orivasplata (talk) 16:56, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

@Orivasplata yes, for some reason I applied revdel to too many versions. I have reinstated the versions prior to the point at which the violating material was added. Nthep (talk) 17:52, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

@Nthep Many thanks. I believe the content in question may not have constituted an unambiguous cv meriting a speedy deletion request, after all. I reiterate: the source of the content in question had been credited with citation, the source being the About page within the website of the Gatsby Unit, which is publicly accessible. Even if this was indeed a cv, it is easy to fix (removing the content in question, and/or replacing with suitable content). Besides, the content in question was non-extensive. I and I'm sure other users would be grateful to receive guidance.

On the other hand, having checked just now the copyright cleanup instructions, item (iv) appears to be relevant:

(iv) change the decline parameter in your AfC copyvio decline template from cv to cv-cleaned – or remove that decline entirely, since you've just cleaned it, and re-assess the draft on its other merits; and

Therefore, could the AfC be re-assessed based on its merits, please, since it's been cv-cleaned. Thanks. Orivasplata (talk) 19:05, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

@Orivasplata there wasn't a case for a speedy deletion which is why I declined that and limited things to revdel of some revisions. I did mark the template as cv-cleaned but I didn't conduct the review. You can either ask Lemonaka to re-review or, as you've already asked for another review, just leave it until someone reviews it.

Wikidata weekly summary #657

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the
week leading up to 2024-12-09. Missed the previous one? See issue #656

Discussions

• New requests for permissions/Bot: KlaraBot - Task(s): Append a human's lifespan to descriptions when they can be authoritatively sourced.

Events

• Past: Amical Wikimedia, the Catalan-language and culture focused thematic Wikimedia Organization organized the Celebrem Wikidata (Let's celebrate Wikidata) project to celebrate Wikidata's 12th anniversary, from November 10 - 30. This included a Wikidata introduction workshop to equip participants with the editing skills to tackle the project's main aim. This was presented as a game to delete duplicate info on Wikidata and Catalan Viquipèdia infoboxes, in three areas: protected buildings, officers' positions and data related to sports teams players. At the end of the event, ~200 Wikidata-fed infoboxes and Wikidata items were improved and many Wikipedia editors edited Wikidata for the first time!
• Upcoming events:
  • (Deutsch)Wikidata for Legal Historians - Tue. 10 December, 3pm - 7pm (UTC+1). This presentation explores Wikidata as a key platform for LOD, explains its Semantic Web foundation, introduces FactGrid (a Wikidata-based platform for historical research). Highlights potential of both platforms using examples and encourages discussion for legal historical research. Register here.
  • Today (09.12.2024) is the last chance to submit an Abstract for the Wikidata and Research conference (5 - 6 June 2025). If you are interested in participating, please review the submission acceptance format before submitting here.
