Request on 07:06:36, 18 January 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Devopam[edit]


Hello David, Thank you for the feedback on this article submission. I have tried to add more relevant references to the article based on the lines suggested by you in your note. Before I resubmit the article , may I request you to have a look at it and let me know if it is in a good/formidable shape. The article was recently deleted for lack of content and other associated issues. I am trying to revamp it with proper structure and content. It is my usual practice to avoid deletion of existing pages due to lack of attention by editors (in bridging the gaps by putting effort) instead of simply letting it go. Best regards

Hi,
EMDEX has 4 references including two from international journals - SAGE journals publish for Drug Information Association. MIMS is published and not one reference. Seriously?
Please, remove the decline tag and move to the articlespace - there will be more contributions and further references with time
Thanks

The new page patrol now vs. 1 year ago[edit]

I was just thinking-the new page patrol is very clean compared to one year ago, it seems the past 6 months we have gotten through articles really fast. True every so often we do slow down, and there were times where there were only a couple thousand unpatrolled articles, but that usually didn't last long, now we seem to usually have it a around 1K-2K unpatrolled articles and it seems consistent! (I do remember around last March it got cleaned up so much that we had over 4K patrolled in one week!), but I must say we are all doing great work now, hope we keep it up! (and again it seems to have started within the past 6 months I will say) Wgolf (talk) 03:37, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wgolf Hey, I've of course been working at NPP as always! My operating systems got damaged so I haven't been able to NPP as quickly as often but FWIW I had managed to patrol to about a day or a few days ahead it wasn't even 1-2K and instead like a few hundreds (it mostly happened about in November and December when you were away). Cheers! SwisterTwister talk 04:23, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion G1[edit]

Hi. I see you have been tagging quite a few user space pages with speedy deletion WP:G1. However, the description for G1 says:

"This applies to pages consisting entirely of incoherent text or gibberish with no meaningful content or history. It does not cover poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, implausible theories, vandalism or hoaxes, fictional material, coherent non-English material, or poorly translated material. Nor does it apply to user sandboxes or other pages in the user namespace. In short, if you can understand it, G1 does not apply."

Most of these pages are in clear and easily understandable English (even if factually incorrect), and they are all in user namespace - and so they are not eligible for G1 on at least those two counts. I think G3 (vandalism) is probably a more appropriate tag for some articles like these, or perhaps U5 (or even G10 for a few). Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:35, 19 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello,

You declined my submission about the french company Stokomani. The reason : the sources I used were not reliable enough. However, all theses sources are from reliable french newspapers. The proof is that the article is considered good in the french wikipedia.

Here's my draft. https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Stokomani&redirect=no

Hello!

I'm trying to understand exactly why this post was rejected. I thought I adequately supplied notability about the company and there are many other small businesses which have found their way onto Wikipedia, some with arguably less notability than 55 Places. Would I be better served to submit it as a website? The company itself really only exists online. Any kind of insight you can offer me would be very much welcomed!

Thank you for you consideration. -Adam

Hi there, 

  I really believe this man meets the notability requirements, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Can you guide me?

  The book he writes on Adobe's Premiere Pro system (classroom in a book) is the standard textbook used by most film schools around the world to train new generations of film and TV editors. He is a well known name within among the technology professionals community. I've listed 15 interviews with him by major outlets from around the world and quite a few references. His book is on the shelves of Barnes and Noble and Waterstones, and many more.

  Would it work better as an article if I removed some information to clarify why he's notable? I realize I may have included too much variety in the information I provided. I suppose there's no need to include all of the filmography; however, some of that material is relevant because it connects to the books he writes and public speaking.

Thanks for your help,

Andrea Sweeney

Hello, my article was declined for notability reasons. However, this band has clearly gained notability. The band has made the US college radio charts. The link provided to the charts is an accepted, official link to published radio charts. Proper research on your part would have confirmed that. In the guidelines for notability, it clearly states that appearing on a radio chart is grounds for notability. Appearing on a national radio chart is no easy or small task. If I have followed the guidelines then my article should be accepted.

Guidelines for improving references - declined draft[edit]

Hello,

you have reviewed my submitted draft Draft:Pavo_Barišić and I would like to know how to improve it. It have been turn down because of lack of third party strong references about persons notability. Academic person I am writing about meets at least 2 criteria for academic notability (was editor-in-chief of leading Croatian philosophical journal and head of central institution for Philosophy in Croatia for 10 years) and each of those have third party reference in draft. References are, for example, Croatian Encyclopedia and official website of Institute of Philosophy in Zagreb. Both of those are central Croatian institutions in their field. Is potential problem that most of the references are on Croatian and German language, while only personal website and official website of Institute of Philosophy in Zagreb provide informations in English (both are in section for external links) ?

I'm a little confused as to why the article was rejected. The reason cited was in regards to the sources and them not being reliable, however there are more than 10 sources listed that are from external and independent sources. None of them are paid for, all of the written articles are written by factual and well respected media sources.

Could you give me some ideas about what would need to change in order for this submission to be accepted?

16:54:47, 28 January 2016 review of submission by DJLondenBuckner[edit]

I am requesting a re-review because I made this article-wikipedia on behalf of my client, Londen Buckner (DJ L) . I feel like the reasoning for declining his submission is inaccurate. If you look below for the article I have listed several sources from one of the most popular blogs in Chicago, FakeShoreDrive, which does have an actual editor. Not to mention it is noted on youtube and known throughout Chicago and the music industry culture that DJ L produced for artists lil herb, lil bibby, tink, plies. All people who have wikipedia pages. He is even in the studio and working right now with the producer, C-sick, who also has a wikipedia page. If he is collaborating with these individuals and made the sound for these individuals to achieve this level of fame/notoriety. I don't see why he can't have his own wikipedia page that he is rightly due for his work and contribution to hip-hop culture. All the credits I listed on his page can be found on the credits on the record. He was just credited on Lil Durk's last album as a producer with C sick. Lil Durk also has a wikipedia page. With all due respect I just feel like the person reviewing this article didn't have an indepth knowledge of hip-hop culture/chicago hip hop culture. DJ L was even listed as one of the top 25 producers in hip hop in 2015- http://watchloud.com/best-rap-producers-in-2015/ so I don't understand what the issue is. I look forward to hearing back from you. Thank you.

Hello, I would appreciate more specifics regarding your question of the subject's notability and my use of references. I have cited several articles from The Washington Post, including an editorial on the occasion of Scheiber's retirement. To my knowledge, for the Washington Post to run an editorial about the end of someone's career is very rare, and speaks to the subject's notability. The interview of Walter Scheiber by Don Nicoll was taped for the Edmund Muskie Archives at Bates College, and resides in those Archives. If your concern is with my citations of material from the MWCOG and NARC websites, I would be happy to remove them and I believe there would still be sufficient material to establish notability. I have added a few sources in the City Management section, and have another source from the Washingtonian Magazine. Before I resubmit this, I would very much appreciate more detailed feedback to guide my revision.

U5 does not apply to stale drafts[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

criterion U5 does not apply to stale drafts. Most of what you have been labelling as such are attempted drafts, not a dubions web hosting. The only one I delete with U5 was a political candidate statement. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 09:54, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Graeme Bartlett Yes, unfortunately, I noticed that but the fact is several other users (at least close to 20) have in fact deleted these type of articles as U5 because, for example, User:Er.abinkurian/Abin kurian is an obvious autobiography and has no actual meaningful draft materials. Furthermore, the fact that these accounts are SPA with no further activity and improvements may it applicable for U5 (see WP:U5). I hope you will reconsider as you can basically ask any other user such as, RHaworth, DGG, Boing! said Zebedee, Jimfbleak, Liz, Northamerica1000 and several others. SwisterTwister talk 18:36, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
If it is a stale draft of something already in WP, I usually delete it as G6, specifying unneeded duplicate. If they were coded U5, I delete them nonetheless. but I change the reason. DGG ( talk ) 18:48, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Keep up the good work. Here's a suggestion: instead of U5 slap the following at the top of offending pages: {{subst:AFC submission/draftnew}} {{db-g13}} .
But one request - check CAT:CSD from time to time and when its main section exceeds about 200 artices, suspend your operations to give us poor admins time to catch up. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:15, 31 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Most of the stale drafts I've deleted are clear G13s and have been marked as such. I'm not aware of deleting a stale draft with a U5 criteria but it might have happened. Sometimes, when the page is a biography of an editor, it's clear U5 material but the author might have intended the page to be a draft for a future article. Liz Read!

Amadeus Electric Quartet is one of the most famous Romanian bands internationally, therefore the international public needs a proper English Wikipedia page, one I have been trying to publish for the past month. Thank you for your help! Regards!

Hmm, there are several sources listed but I will let someone else, perhaps familiar with that subject area, review it instead. SwisterTwister talk 07:08, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 07:57:58, 1 February 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Sstan19[edit]


Help with my page; references. Hi. So can you help me understand why my page wasn't allowed? I have seen many other pages for race tracks of similar or less notoriety with far less info and background about the track. I'm new to Wikipedia contributing, so I admit there are violations of the "independent of the subject" rule. If I can find some other sources from other newspapers or what have you, will my page be good to go or are there other hoops to jump through?

Thank you for your time, Sean Sstan19 (talk) 07:57, 1 February 2016 (UTC) Sstan19 (talk) 07:57, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder what verifiable sources does it still needs to make it as a official entry into the Wikipedia index. The sources I have came from the official websites of Dinagyang Foundation itself as well as official wordpress site of local radio station in Iloilo where the Dinagyang is being held.

Hi SwisterTwister! Thanks for your consideration on the article. I'm hoping I have put in enough citations, but please let me know if you think there need to be more. There are plenty of links related to Reel Canada, but some of them are small newspapers and they generally say the same thing that other links have done. Reel Canada is a non-profit charity on the ground in every single Canadian province, so the team is tiny but dedicated.

Re. Mads Munk: Can you help me?[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister! Thanks you for reviewing the article on Mads Munk. I can see that you declined the submission of the article based on your opinion that the article does not adequately show the subject's notability. Can you help me with a little more guidance here, since I am not quite sure why the article doesn't meet the required criteria? The article has recently been updated with references to coverage on IMDb.com, Financial Times, Wallpaper Magazine, and Scandinavian Traveller as well as a all major Danish Business papers - Business, Borsen, Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten, Aarhus Stiftstidende (which I understand can be hard to verify for a non-Danish speaking person, but I see that Wikipedia aknowledges non-English sources as reliable too). I have seen a number of articles on film producers with much less documentation than this, e.g. Georges Dancigers, Lars Jönsson, M. Saravanan, Erik Crone and many more. Thank you very much if you can give me a bit of advice on this! Tpm1973 (talk) 08:39, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

18:49:17, 3 February 2016 review of submission by Axb697[edit]


I strongly believe that the sources I have provided prove notability. As LaMona suggested, they were unable to access jstor website, because of their password and the like. This is not a sufficient reason to decline. You can see notability through the Arab Writers Union website and also through jstor, which is the official publication of the French Institute of Arabic Studies. Add to this the dedication of different authors in the 20th century, all are named and referred to, and also the reputed Le Monde journal. Take this for example: http://www.jstor.org/stable/41608456?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents Which is by itself a proof of notability. Hope to take it into consideration. P.S I am a doctoral researcher in the University of Birmingham.

Why are you rejecting a major PBS docuemntary on a completely unique subject, who herself is already in Wikipedia? The film was nationally broadcast on the most important docuemntary strand in the USA. Its been nominated for a GLAAD media award, aka "the Gay Oscars", and its the only one of that list that isn't in Wiki. Do you have a problem with trans people?

Wikipedia:Twinkle[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

Noting Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Abeiku Okai/Senya Beraku Akumase Festival, where it was noted that you failed to notify the page creator of the nomination to delete, have you considered enabling and using Wikipedia:Twinkle? It makes the fairly complex steps of XfD nominations very easy. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:57, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

SmokeyJoe I suppose but frankly the account only edited a few times making me think they were an SPA. At best, they may remember their article immediately and thus see the MfD listing. Should they come soon, they can simply ask the article be moved to Draftspace. FWIW, I like the Twinkle concept but it seems it individually logs the daily nominations and I prefer to log them all at once. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 22:59, 3 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Georgia DCS[edit]

No Answer[edit]

I have not received any response to the question of why my explanation of Money Pump was reverted by you.

Dear Sister Twister -- I have many publications on this subject in advanced academic journals. Please see list of my contributions to highly technical topics. Ask someone who knows the difference between Money Pump and Dutch Book to evaluate whether or not it is a solid article. Note that the current main paragraph of explanation of Dutch Book is also my contribution, as well as many other technical sections in many other wikipedia articles.

The person has received several prizes and awards as pianist, is professor on two major music academies and on numerous prestigious international master classes, worshipped and adored by numerous present and past students, and juror on international competitions. I have included four references behind text portions and a list of about a dozen external links. Both seem to prove unquestionable notability. I can try do do more, but this may take time.

Hi! I'm not exactly trying to request a re-review yet, but this is the page I was brought to so I could ask you some questions/for some help with my article. So, first I'll try to replace the links to their website with some more 3rd party sources, I do see where you're coming from there. I was wondering though, are there any sections that you think are entirely insignificant or unsuitable and I should just remove them? I think the page is an interesting read, but if you feel that some of the info should just be deleted that's fine with me.

Thanks!

Kirby Allan (Pittman)[edit]

I've been struggling with an article about Kirby Allen. He worked with Chaino in the late 1950's and their work has been re-released many times since then.

The primary issue with the article seems to be in regard to the specific citations, or their placement within the article. I'm fairly sure that Allen meets the following criteria of notability:

If disagreement remains about this article, I'd like to suggest the possibility that a link be provided for Allan, to Chaino's article, or that portions of this article be {merge}d with Chaino's.

(To keep your page tidy, I'm placing a ref section below. Please edit or delete as needed.)

Draft:Celow[edit]

Greetings, I see that you reviewed my draft submission on Crelow and objected to its lack of notability and insufficiently "solid" third-party references. To address the notability issue, I have rewritten the lead section, which now says that Crelow is the first online marketplace for commercial real estate. It is the first, but perhaps out of excessive modesty, I did not assert that in the original draft. As far as references go, I should have thought the leading newspapers in Minneapolis, Denver, and Houston would be sufficient, along with the primary business journals for those cities and Seattle. But there will shortly be articles about Crelow in the San Jose Mercury News and the Los Angeles Times as well. Would that be sufficient? If so, I will resubmit the article when those additional news stories appear. Thanks, Burgo Fitzgerald Burgo Fitzgerald (talk) 20:59, 6 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

{{SAFESUBST:Void|

Hey,

I am trying to create a few pages on Litigation funders. I am currently writing my PHD around the industry, which is really quite pivotal, but very few companies are listed on Wikipedia.

The only company which I have seen on Wikipedia so far is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbour_Litigation_Funding and I cant tell what makes that page more worthy of note than the one I wrote. I wondered if you could please offer me some guidance?

Thanks

Ben

Benm182, WP is an encyclopedia, summarizing information published elsewhere. Therefore, we need references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements. They have to be about the firm itself. Unlike a Ph.D thesis, Wikipedia does not do analysis or write articles based on primary sources such as H of Commons hearings. Nor does an analysis of case where the firm presented an analysis of the evidence show a major role of the firm, unless there are specific third party statements that specially saw how their information was critical or decisive. Please see our explanation about original research, WP:OR, and our page about WP:Reliable sources. It is in fact possible that this will be difficult to do for this firm,; it often is for small specialized companies of vartious sorts.
This is very different from academic writing, which is expected to be original research. The nearest analog in the academic world to a WP article might be a section in an advanced textbook, which is expected to just present the accepted view, based on documentation from published studies.
By the way, once your thesis has been accepted and is publicly available, then it can be used as a source. DGG ( talk ) 19:56, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewing articles[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister. May I ask what you do when reviewing articles (normal articles, not AfCs)? Your page curation log sometimes lists up to 5 reviewed articles per minute, but I can hardly believe that you can check entire articles in 12 seconds, let alone tag them for problems. The BLP about Julito Buhisan Cortes for example was merely an infobox and should have been PRODded for a lack of references (I have done so by the way), but despite the issues, you plainly marked it as reviewed. - HyperGaruda (talk) 11:42, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

But it's trivial to add it,I just did in less than one-minute. T We've never deleted an article on a RC bishop. hey all have findable sources. DGG ( talk ) 19:39, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@DGG: That particular BLP was not my point. I am merely wondering how one can properly check a new article for problems in the nigh impossibly short span of <12 seconds. Yes I am aware of page curation tools, but it should take some time for a human mind to finish e.g. a checklist of potential issues. That is all, of course, dependent on SwisterTwister's definition of "reviewing", but I was under the impression that reviewing meant checking an article for errors and addressing them by either fixing or tagging. - HyperGaruda (talk) 21:24, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Honestly, I waited because I believed the author would continue working because the article was imaginably not finished. It's worth noting I actually watchlist any articles I find to need close examination and work. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 21:27, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
My own top rate is about 2 per minute , but sometimes a little faster when there are obvious problems, or an obvious lack of problems. And of course often slower, sometimes much slower like 2 a day, when it takes some thinking. DGG ( talk ) 02:19, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SwisterTwister, you can see I've been working on this article for a while - its an info article on TransRe (inline with many reinsurance companies like Swiss Re, Munich Re, etc). We had a recent exchange with your articles creation team and therefore I toned down the language and removed some references. I can imagine you guys are really busy, proving a invaluable reference for the world, but I was wondering if there were any further pointers or guidenance you could provide, or even if you could assist I'd be really grateful.

many thanks,

Neil.

Ninskip (talk) 13:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Ninskip, you might start by integrating the 3rd party external links into the references, and writing in paragraphs, not tables. Then you might want to remove those references which are essentially press releases. unless they are needed to document specific uncontroversial facts. And some financial information would help show the importance. DGG ( talk ) 19:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:Denis Alva Parsons[edit]

Hi. I see you reviewed Draft:Denis Alva Parsons and declined. I thought the article was getting there, even though this isn't a typical example of wp:creative.There are some similar persons at Category:English_woodcarvers; I think he fits in there. You commented about not being in museums, but perhaps that was a misunderstanding? Architectural wood carvings would probably not often be found in museums. I don't know if there are special policies for crafts vs. arts, and it does seem difficult to apply some of the criteria at wp:creative to crafts people. Because of the nature of church carvings, many of the sources will be local only. However, I'm tending to send this on out to main space - would you object?

Hi there!

Sorry for not doing this quite right at first, still learning and did try hard to find sources :).

Would it work better to focus on Nick as an author? I noticed a fiction author at Harper Collins (who published Nick's last book) has a page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joe_Abercrombie) and nearly all sources are his own website. I thought because Nick's books are best sellers in very competitive categories that'd make him more notable.

Also, when you say sources independent of the subject, I'm not sure I understand? I looked at the Golden Rule and get that pieces written by Nick might not be OK but what about the others that just talk about him/UP?

Sorry for being simple!

This is my first biography, I read the guidelines and I looked at a lot of different ones before I did this. I have a significant number of external resources noted. This man revolutionized track and field and invented the bounce house among a lot of other notable activity. I couldn't find that this information was noted anywhere, which made getting the references together very difficult, but there are pictures of letters, newspaper articles, videos from TV and a lot of other sources that validate the importance of Don Gordon. Finally, this is my father, he has cancer with about 2 weeks to live. I'd been waiting years in the hopes that someone would do a page for him given his popularity in the track and field and gymnastics circles and notables that are referenced in the article. I was really hoping to get this live while he was still alive and could see it. If you can help me out with what is specifically wrong, I'll take care of it, but I really thought I referenced the crap out of it, took me about a month to get together.

21:28:52, 10 April 2016 review of submission by Majd Aburas[edit]


This is the second time to post this and I've got no reply yet! Dear David, I have got a declined article mentioned in the subject with a reason of lack of reliable sources, and commented as "This looks like a journal report instead of a formal encyclopaedia article" knowing that, I've spent 6 months creating this article and collection sources, as this particular subject is very complicated and full of profession secrets, the only company that has been open to me was Al Wathba Marionnet (awmpalms.com), and allowed me to use their research materials that are related to this subject. So if you please make it clear to me how am I suppose to gain the approval of this article, although many of its references comes from wikipedia itself.

Thanks in advance, Majd Aburas [[User:|Majd Aburas]] (talk) 21:28, 10 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Majd Aburas, on seeing the message you posted here i had a look at the draft article. I agree with SwisterTwister that it presently reads like a journal report (or scientific report) on the subject, not an encyclopedic article (Frankly as a non-scientist i was confused upon reading the first sentence). Please have a look at Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and specifically WP:NOTJOURNAL ie. "Wikipedia articles should not read like: 7. Scientific journals and research papers. A Wikipedia article should not be presented on the assumption that the reader is well versed in the topic's field. Introductory language in the lead (and also maybe the initial sections) of the article should be written in plain terms and concepts that can be understood by any literate reader of Wikipedia without any knowledge in the given field before advancing to more detailed explanations of the topic." Also, Wikipedia:No original research (especially the first part on using sources), as i was concerned on reading in your above statement "as this particular subject is very complicated and full of profession secrets, the only company that has been open to me was Al Wathba Marionnet (awmpalms.com), and allowed me to use their research materials that are related to this subject." And finally i too recommend (as did SwisterTwister) you have a look at Wikipedia:Your first article as it contains a lot of relevent information and suggestions; i especially like point 4 in the introduction - "Practice first. Before starting, try editing existing articles to get a feel for writing and for using Wikipedia's mark-up language—we recommend that you first take a tour through the Wikipedia tutorial or review contributing to Wikipedia to learn editing basics." - i have created only a couple of articles (excluding talkpages and afds:)) even though i have made quite a lot of edits, thanks. kitten stalker - meowr!

J.Schaul[edit]

Dear SwisterTwister, I responded on the discussion page and apologize as I didn't mean to put it the font in bold. As I mentioned, I'm not sure what you mean by "independently notable." I was a contributing editor and then regular contributor to Nat Geo online for four years and my articles were both featured as lead stories, in some cases and in others cross posted in other publications. In addition, the first attempt to delete my article was unsuccessful. So I'm not understanding why there is such a strong effort to delete this now, especially considering there are new references since it was reviewed a few years back. I've really tried hard to be open and honest about the articles I've worked on since questions have been raised. I am aware of mistakes that I have made. I'm still learning, but I really hope that I am not being punished for being compensated, which seems to be the sentiment of some other editors. I really don't understand how, I was deemed notable before and now, my notability is being questioned. I'm sorry to bother you with this, but it is very disappointing.regardsJpop73 (talk) 06:26, 12 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is still new to me, so apologies if I'm doing this wrong. Your comment that I'm linking to social media for support of allegations seems to indicate that you didn't review the media. Those links all go to pictures of letters, people, TV shows, etc., that support what is being said in the article. Since a lot of the information is from the 60-90's, there are no online archives from the original content, or in some cases it is personal letters. There is no other method to present that information, but the videos speak for themselves as they in fact show Dwight Stones, or Don Gordon with Rafer Johnson at the Special Olympics, and on the Virgina Graham Show, or NBC News, or the Battle of the Network Stars. There is about 2 dozen supported sources for this brilliant man, who by the way, passed away yesterday. Thank you for your help.

Hi! I reviewed Anthony Rodriguez (pianist) page and he has won a major Bronze Telly Award in 2005 and also has a major influence in helping many people with motivational speeches. His name was mentioned in the News 12 New Jersey Spotlight segment for a writers summit. Not all notable musicians are linked with record labels. There're many notable musicians that are self-released with a distribution deal. And also has performed with powerhouse Artists. This page should be saved, this is my second day on Wikipedia and so this Article in a list of deletions. I ask that you help to construct the page to stay alive. Thank you very much!

Hi SwisterTwister, Could you please let me know which paragraphs you would like to see with more in-depth third-party news sources, so I can improve the article? Thank you!


Please provide feedback on the following below 17 April 2016[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

Thank you very much for reviewing my pages, I really appreciate it.

I have been creating pages for several yoga poses and plan on continuing to do so, first according to the List of asanas page, and then expanding beyond that as well. I am very passionate about yoga poses and this is a fun and important project for me.

I wanted to introduce a few books that feature yoga poses I'm writing about, since I feel it might help the Wikipedia readers expand their understanding of the poses.

I keep referencing the same 5 books, which I have in my library. I noticed that only one of the authors of these books has a Wikipedia page: Dharma Mittra.

I'd like to create the pages for the following authors, and I thought I'd run it by you to get your feedback, since I am new to Wikipedia and you have been very helpful and encouraging.

1. Darren Rhodes Darren Rhodes is a Yoga teacher in the US.

Darren Rhodes has been teaching at the YogaOasis in Tucson, Arizona from 1999 to present. (https://www.yogaglo.com/teacher/darren-rhodes)

He is an author of Yoga Resource Practice Manual book and eBook showcasing 400 yoga poses. (https://www.yogaglo.com/teacher/darren-rhodes)

Part of his practice consists of raising awareness towards the daily activities we do, which create patterns in the body. Darren Rhodes suffered from scoliosis in his teens and was able to greatly improve his condition with his yoga practice. (http://www.yogajournal.com/article/practice-section/blueprint-for-change/)

I'm sorry but my article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Housejoy has been reviewed by you and have been rejected. I seriously fail to understand the guidelines of Wikipedia and if or not every moderator follows it. The following article on wikipedia has a sub standard content and no notable citations, yet the article has been approved. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UrbanClap I have made many changes to the article, have gathered a good number of citations and was expecting a fair, unbiased review. I've had contributed to wikipedia in the past, but I've always failed to understand the guidelines on which these articles are approved and rejected.

Anyways, thank you for your kind advice but I all I can understand from your review comments is that the logic of providing solid citations and a well constructed article aren't as important as the age or experience of an entity or an individual (which can be overseen in certain special cases).

Dear Sir/Madam, Thank you for your kind recommendations on the DRAFT article: "The European Society for Artificial Organs (ESAO)". (This article relies too much on references to primary sources. Please improve this by adding secondary or tertiary sources. (March 2016)) Since it seems that the Wikipedia guidelines is new for me, I would highly appreciate more clearness on your comments. To me, it is not clear which paragraph consists of too much primary sources and which one requires secondary/tertiary sources. I would also like to mention that the wikipedia page of one of a similar organization(ERA-EDTA) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Renal_Association_%E2%80%93_European_Dialysis_and_Transplant_Association, has been granted and available on the internet. I would also like to add that the ESAO organization is an independent organization. In this case, since the ESAO organization has yet no history should I conclude that the article may not refer to other second or third sources?

Thank you in advance for your support.

The Romanian American League page has enough credible sources and is compliant with Wikipedia guidelines. The "piece of cruft" mentioned by "Biruitorul" is an actual community service announcement. It is a real site, reliable and used by the Romanian community in Florida. Furthermore it presents a poster, showing the event details. Also, the so called " the press release put out by a politician" regress to a member holding office in the Romanian Government. The difference between the President of the United States and "a politician" is that the President has the power to bind the Government by his actions. It is the same situation here. Mr. Lubanovici is a member of the Romanian legislative branch, in office, binding the Government with his actions. The article also contain links from the Romanian Embassy in Washington DC and Romanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. No other organization in Wikipedia, has better sources that this one.

03:19:05, 14 April 2016 review of submission by Carnival Honey[edit]


-I read that one of the notability requirements could be fulfilled if a notable person was involved the film, in which this film is a considerable achievement in their career. There are three notable persons who worked on this film: David Mullen, the cinematographer, who is a member of the A.S.C. and has shot many famous films, and who co-wrote the definitive book on Cinematography that is used in film schools; Anna Biller, the director of the film, whose last feature film was a huge hit on the international film festival circuit and was reviewed in dozens of major outlets; and Jeffrey Vincent Parise, a star on General Hospital, who also has starred in Wim Wenders films and has a notable list of other film credits.

-This film is also notable for being one of the last films to use a completely photochemical process, and it was the only film screening on 35mm film at the very prestigious Rotterdam Film Festival.

-The film premiered at the International Film estival Rotterdam, one of the top ten film festivals in the world.

-This film is listed on IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes, and has been covered in Shock Till You Drop, Rue Morgue, and Horror Asylum, three of the largest horror websites, as well as the sites Cinematic Investigations and Film Bizarro, and it was reviewed in the Film Comment podcast. It is also scheduled to screen at many other major film festivals throughout the world, where it will garner significant press coverage.

-Not all of the web references are listed here. If you want me to send more references I can do so, but I had not thought that this article would be a problem for notability so I did not include everything.

The references and external links on the Wiki page are all from industry recognized magazines and publications, that all have WikiPages as well: EEtimes, Bloomberg, etc. it takes ages to get recognition in these magazines.

Questions about recommendations draft[edit]

Dear SisterTwister,

Thank you for your recommendations on the DRAFT article: "Guy Van Nueten". (Still needs any additional amount of the best in-depth third-party news sources overall. SwisterTwister talk 20:36, 11 April 2016 (UTC))

About in-dept thrid-party sources; ...i must say i've added (and added) all of the reliable and heavy weight third-party sources i could find. Most of them are in Dutch, since Mr. Van Nueten is a well known composer in the Flemish and Dutch region of Europe. Multiple of these sources affirm all i have written in the draft. (Dutch is my first language)

Is it a problem that some of these sources are only available in Dutch? (I have noticed that there are other articles that are mainly supported by foreign language sources)

Could you please specify which paragraph, line or topic you would like to be supported more? And which sources you consider as insufficient in-dept or third-party?

In the UK the Role of Chairman / Executive Producer of the Royal Variety Performance is one of the highest accolades that a producer can receive and is a role appointed by the Queen.

Hello SwisterTwister

and thank you for your relentless efforts at proofreading the pages I translate from the French. Allow me to ask you some questions please:

1°-Should it be "Repertoire" or "Productions" (or something else) when it comes to listing the plays performed in such and such theatre that I make an entry for in the English Wikipedia?

2°- Is there any difference between the templates [1935 in film] and [1935 in the movie]?

Question regarding "edit" tab/feature to edit articles[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

I notice I am unable to edit entries and AfC submissions using the Edit tab. This seems to have happened just four days ago --- before that, there appeared an "edit" tab at the top right side of my screen, to make edits easy. Now it is gone! Instead, I only see an "Edit source" tab, which I can use to make edits but is much more cumbersome and difficult than using the easy editor "Edit" tab feature.

Have you ever encountered this problem when editing? If so, any advice/suggestions on what to do?

inre Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Code 8 (2017 film)[edit]

While all are in agreement that an article on the projected 2017 film is premature, there is the general consensus that an article on the current short could be notable enough... that understood, the article has been edited and re-titled to be ABOUT the 2016 film. And since the corrected article is no longer about an unmade film, my own stance is that with these changes the article can now be kept as Code 8 and the projected 2017 film as a topic can be dealt with if and or when it happens. Pretty much for now we need only deal with a film which exists and is sourcable... and even the original nominator supports this view. Care to revisit the discussion? Thanks.

Resubmitted Draft:George Quinn[edit]

Hi David, I have added considerable improvements to Draft:George Quinn: I modified the history section and re-written it as WP:Prose (it was previously written as bullet points). I have added more content and more in-depth third-party sources that show the notability of George Quinn Ltd. I have added references from: Lovechicliving, Home building and Renovating magazine, Heart Home, Insight DIY, Duedil – all of them covered George Quinn in-depth. Can you please review it again?! Let me know what you think. Thank you!

P.S. My previous submission was a couple of months ago. I wanted to leave the article there for some time and gather some more sources (which I did and I included them in the article - all of them are reliable third-party sources and show that George Quinn is notable). --Domiriat (talk) 08:31, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi David, Thank you for alerting me to the need for more sources to prove the "independently notable-ness" of my page. The company has been around since 1999, all of its competitors, much smaller BTW, have their own pages, and I do have many other third-party sources to reference, including leading analyst firm research reports (Gartner, Forrester). Do you require all of these changes to be included on the page at once, rather than working on this incrementally as I am able? I consider my page a draft when published. is there a way to work on this a bit at a time without "pubishing" and having it reverted again? Thank you.

Relisting at the same time as participating in AfD discussions[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister. I recommend against relisting at the same time as participating in AfD discussions as you did here for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jay Freeman and here for Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016 Greater Noida Rape Case.

Relisting could "cas[t] a perceived lack of neutrality over your relisting actions". This is a quote from the DRV closer of Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2012 July 25#Ashton Kutcher on Twitter:

Although it was not discussed in great detail in the DRV, the issue of multiple relisting of the AfD was mentioned by a number of editors, and this concern was not substantially addressed. WP:RELIST gives two reasons why a discussion should be relisted: A. insufficient discussion or B. insufficient participation based on policy. Based on my inspection of the AfD, neither of these two criteria were met. This was further exacerbated by the first two closers—relisting admins are described as closers by WP:RELIST—participating in the later discussion, casting a perceived lack of neutrality over their relisting actions.

There was a recent discussion about relisting and participating at Wikipedia talk:Deletion process/Archive 9#Relisting process – Should relisting discussions automatically exclude users from any !voting in the discussion?. The RfC closer noted:

Consensus is against including anything in the guideline about relisting and !voting at this time. That said, there is also general agreement that in some circumstances it's not a good idea, and that some caution is advisable when doing so.

As Izno (talk · contribs) noted in the RfC:

For "!vote, then relist", the bad actor scenario here is that someone objects to the apparent consensus in a discussion (at whatever date; don't forget that some things are relisted more than once) and then decides that the consensus is not in his favor, and so prevents an uninvolved person (admin or no) from making the decision to relist by relisting it himself. This is clearly something that we should want to prevent from occurring.

For "Relist, then !vote", I think this is just a point of semantics to distinguish between the two. Whether the !vote appears above or below the relist, you still look INVOLVED to have relisted it yourself. Though perhaps I'm taking the case of "these actions are occurring near in time to each other".

At Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016 Greater Noida Rape Case, you wrote, "Relisting considering this could be closed as Keep (including if I vote as such) but I'm still not confident about this being comfortable Kept thus I'm relisting for better attention." I think this is one circumstance in which relisting at the same time as participating in the AfD discussion is inadvisable. You've relisted the discussion even though you admit it could be closed as keep and then you added a "delete" vote. WP:RELIST says a discussion can be relisted for two reasons: insufficient participation or insufficient participation based on policy. However, at the time of your relist there were four participants and arguments based on policy for supporting retention. A relist and vote could look like the "bad actor scenario" Izno mentioned in the RfC.

At Wikipedia talk:Requested moves/Archive 28#Can we formally ban relisters from subsequently !voting, Jenks24 (talk · contribs) wrote:

I'm not sure. Relisting and then voting straight after is obviously poor form, as is relisting a discussion where you're already a participant. But something I occasionally do is relist a discussion and then when it reaches the backlog again, rather than just relist indefinitely, I'll add a vote so that we try and reach a consensus. I'm interested in whether people think that is wrong, or has the perception of impropriety. Obviously if there's a consensus here to institute a blanket rule against relisters voting then I will abide by it.

I'm not categorically against relisting and participating in an AfD. For example, I'm fine with the case Jenks24 mentioned in which Jenks24 relists a discussion and when it reaches the backlog again a week later, adds a vote to try to reach a consensus. But I do think relisting and voting immediately afterwards is poor form.

I think it'd be good to practice not to relist and around the same time participate in AfD discussions. Would you consider this? Cunard (talk) 06:54, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I could Cunard but, in case you haven't noticed, I'm conscious to not click "Edit" multiple times. I can also assure you I simply relisted because, with these cases, it was best to. I can also assure you that I was completely neutral when voting and I simply thought I would take care of two things at the exact same time.... SwisterTwister talk 06:57, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I can also assure you that I was completely neutral when voting – it is not possible to be "completely neutral when voting" once you've supported deletion or retention.

I can also assure you I simply relisted because, with these cases, it was best to. – it is possible that an uninvolved editor would relist those discussions. However, a relist and vote happening at around the same time could give the appearance of impropriety. If you want to participate in a discussion by supporting retention or deletion, it is best to let an uninvolved editor to decide whether to relist. Cunard (talk) 07:16, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

At best WP:IAR and WP:BOLD could apply and, at best, as I'm a frequent participant at AfD, I know quite well that anyone can relist (why wait until someone comes along and perhaps simply closes before a vote (which could be mine) come along), and several have commented afterwards. So what are the troubles of simply relisting and voting? Why click "Edit" twice and risk "edit conflict". What I meant by "neutral" is that I was not intent with outstandingly vote one path or another thus there was no "compromise". SwisterTwister talk 07:19, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So what are the troubles of simply relisting and voting? – relisting and voting is problematic because it could give the appearance of impropriety. For example, in the case of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2016 Greater Noida Rape Case you said that it could be closed as keep, "but I'm still not confident about this being comfortable Kept thus I'm relisting for better attention". You were uncomfortable with the "keep" consensus in the discussion, so you relisted the discussion and voted "delete".

As Protonk (talk · contribs) wrote at Wikipedia talk:Deletion process/Archive 9#Relisting process – Should relisting discussions automatically exclude users from any !voting in the discussion?: "Someone relisting a discussion going the 'wrong' way and then voting in the hopes that it will stay open long enough to attract votes to their position? That may be a problem but I don't know if it rises to the level of needing a policy to proscribe it."

Why click "Edit" twice and risk "edit conflict". – I think it's problematic to relist and vote in the same edit. I also think it's problematic to relist in one edit and vote in a second edit within seconds or minutes of the relist. I find both situations equally problematic.

Cunard (talk) 07:32, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I kindly suggest we both drop this and continue with our own path and tasks as I was completely open to closing as Keep but the AfD was not explicitly clear regardless so if I had closed as Keep, it would've been fingered as closing too early thus the Relist. My vote afterwards was not at all affecting the AfD, whether or not what you may think. I will not continue to entertain this thread as I know what my beneficial intentions are and were. SwisterTwister talk 07:36, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've opened a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Deletion process#Is it inadvisable to relist and at the same time participate in an AfD? to solicit thoughts from the community. Cunard (talk) 07:57, 23 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Blocked proposed new article[edit]

Hi!: I disagree with your decision of not including the short biography of Jose Alix Alix, physician, specialist in lung diseases, head of the lung diseases service in the Fundacion Jimenez Diaz (FJD), Clinica de Nuestra Señora de la Concepción, Madrid, one of the top ranking hospitals all over Spain, the references provides show he was a pioneer of Thoracic Surgery in Spain (Archivos de Bronconeumología, 2002, the official publication of the Spanish Society for Lung Diseases), any Web Map services will show you the avenue with his name in San Fernando de Henares/ Coslada (Madrid, Spain), Entrez PubMed could retrieve references of some of his publications, he was awarded some top range Spanish decorations, you can consult this in his obituary note in the Madrid newspaper ABC of sept 1989, of free and open access; when he died, he was dedicated an obituary note by the Madrid newspaper 'El Pais', I guess this is more than enough, you can find persons with the same surname, and being his relatives, as Alberto Garcia-Alix, photographer, having an article in the Spanish Wikipedia, or known, Jose Igancio Gaminde-Alix, Senator for the PNV, Baske Nationalist Party, the Jose Alix-Alix offspring, Josemari Alix-Trueba, even when belonging to a now illegal group was also notorious, the surname Trueba is connected to the movie maker having received a Hollywood Oscar, and persons having a similar position in Spanish medicine, as Hernan Cortes-Funes, former head of Oncology service of 12 de Octubre Hospital in Madrid, who has a large biography in Spanish Wikipedia. The fact that the international projection of Jose Alix-Alix is not that wide as that of Hernan Cortes-Funes may be connected to the basic fact that Jose Alix was born, and retired earlier, when medicine, specially Spanish medicine, was not so global as it is today. If you think this reasoning is enough, as I've shown, you can change your decision, it's up to you.

13:25:43, 25 April 2016 review of submission by Hillaoph[edit]



Hi,

I am wondering why my Wikipedia article keeps getting declined although I have provided independent sources. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Finnish_American_Chamber_of_Commerce_-_New_York_%28FACC_NY%29

The articles I have on the reference list are all from independent large media outlets from Finland. Kauppalehti is the biggest financial newspaper in Finland and MTV3 is the main news channel of Finland. In addition, the Consulate General of Finland in New York has no relations to FACC NY so the article it has written should also count as independent.

There is another very similar organization in America called AmCham Finland who have gotten their page published without any references: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AmCham_Finland

And an identical organization SACC New York (the Swedish version of FACC NY) has gotten a page published with only references to its website: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SACC_New_York

Why is that?

Nuclear torpedo[edit]

Hi @SwisterTwister: Thanks for the NAC of the AfD for The Rise and Fall of Nuclear Torpedoes. The outcome of the AfD is clear enough. I wonder though whether we correctly designate this as a Deletion or as a Keep? SInce both the fundamentals of the article prior to AfD and the article history were both Kept (under a new name), I would have labeled it as Keep. However, that's just me guessing. This difficulty probably arises because I pushed through the new name for the article, Nuclear torpedo, before the AfD closed, so maybe I pre-empted things in a way I shouldn't have. (I tried to point to that at the top of the AfD information.) In any case, the AfD tag is still on the renamed Nuclear torpedo page, so I thought you wouldn't mind me asking if this is really a Keep or Delete designation, and also letting you know about the remaining tag. Thanks again for helping close the AfD. Sorry if I am being weird - the closure is really correct in its practical outcome and this is just a nitpicky labeling question. Thanks. FeatherPluma (talk) 01:48, 26 April 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Xxanthippe I closed it as Deleted as the article was obviously deleted or rather moved to Nuclear torpedo instead it seems thus I saw no need for an open AfD for an apparently red-linked article. I have also removed it from the latter article unless you would like to renominate or somehow talk about that article separately. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 05:17, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Understood. An explanation would have helped. Xxanthippe (talk) 05:25, 26 April 2016 (UTC).[reply]
Hey, remember that AfD applies to the content of an article, not the title. Just because an article is renamed does not mean that someone should have to start a new AfD for it. As such, the close reasoning is rather misleading, it should ideally have been something like "moved to Nuclear torpedo without redirect and rewritten". Though, to be honest, it doesn't really matter at this point. ansh666 05:32, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@SwisterTwister: I don't know if the reason for closure is easy to adjust. While the closure has a reasonable practical outcome I am fairly confident that the label as Delete is technically incorrect. When you have a moment, and if it's not too much trouble technically, would you mind relabeling the close as Keep with the explanation along the lines of "consensus, after article was renamed without redirect to Nuclear torpedo, and partially rewritten". If this isn't easy to do, please just mention that here, so that I know you actively considered this request and also know how things work going forward. Many appreciative thanks.

09:41:35, 26 April 2016 review of submission by Collinmueller[edit]


Dear SwisterTwister, Thank you for taking the time to review the article on Thunder. This is my first Wikipedia article, so I would like to get some guidance on which sources are considered 'good' sources and how many do I have to cite. In my first version of the article I cited the 'Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung' with their online outlet faz.net, which is among Germany's largest serious newspapers and completely independent of the Thunder project, that the page is about. The second source is meedia.de, which is a large Germany media industry news service. They also don't have anything to do with the project. The third major source is the blog of Dries Buytaert, who is an 'online rock star'. He is almost as big as Linus Torvalds (Linux). Thunder is built on top of his open-source project Drupal, which is used by a significant share of websites.

Many media outlets around the globe have reported about Thunder. So how many other sources should I cite? And how should they differ from the ones I have already cited?

Thank you very much for your help. Regards, Collin Collinmueller (talk) 09:41, 26 April 2016 (UTC)collinmueller[reply]

P.S.: Thunder is a not-for-profit open-source project that aims at fostering the worldwide collaboration among publishers. Nobody is earning money with Thunder.

Dear SwisterTwister,

My article is not accepted because the references are considered as not independant from the subject. I do not understand how a reference can be independant from the subject. Since they have to be related to each other. Also, I checked the other wikipedia page in the same context, as the Nobel Prize https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Prize and most of its references are related to its main website. I kindly ask you to review, and help me by indicating how I could improve this page.

Thanks in advance for your support

Kind regards, Constance

I know I've already asked you about this, but I feel like I need to ask again. Are you even looking at the page before you mark it as reviewed? The rate you mark them as such is absurd. –Compassionate727 (T·C) 18:26, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Compassionate727 Of course I'm looking, I'm simply a fast typist and reader, I should also note that I use multiple tabs including with both a phone and laptop, and I'm accustomed to what the article contains, if it's notable and acceptable, and tagging when needed. Although some may think I'm not paying attention, I can assure you I certainly am. SwisterTwister talk 18:56, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I don't mean to pile on, but I came here to say exactly this. For the fourth time in recent memory—recent enough to remember your name—I've come across something you'd marked reviewed that was very clearly not. The latest instance of no-op patrolling is Red Messaging Mass Notification and Emergency Notification‎‎, a poorly-written advertisement. A few day ago, you marked an incarnation of Lara Technologies as patrolled—even though it was clear promotionalism with no indication of notability. It had been deleted twice in substantially the same form, yet you didn't even tag it for notability. This kind of patrolling is counterproductive and disruptive, and I would appreciate it if you would stop.  Rebbing  20:26, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rebbing FWIW, I have mentioned to other people that I notice it but I wait and watchlist to see if any improvements are made, because then people finger me as being "hasty"....Again, I assure I wathch the article. SwisterTwister talk 20:46, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Your watchlist won't tell you when changes haven't been made, and, with the countless pages you curate—you actually did one of mine this afternoon—I find it difficult to believe that you're going to manually follow up with each one. Moreover, new pages patrol is not the "adopt and wait" queue; I'm the third editor who took the time to object to this behavior today. (Please re-read the red-boxed warning on WP:NPP.) If you want to wait on a page to see if it will develop—I agree, an appropriate outcome when further editing may flush out notability—then please leave it in the queue. It can wait there just as well as it can in your watchlist. Also, if your concern actually is about hasty deletion, there's nothing stopping you from categorizing articles and tagging their talk pages for relevant wikiprojects.  Rebbing  20:59, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rebbing Simply to note, I can assure you I follow all of my watchlisted pages. In fact, I regularly watch them to where I see them every minute or so. SwisterTwister talk 21:02, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I believe you. But you miss my point: your watchlist only shows what's changed, not what's stayed the same. If you patrol and watch a problematic article, and nothing happens to resolve the problem, your watchlist isn't going to tell you that a problem hasn't been fixed. You are defeating the entire purpose of new pages patrol. I also have to wonder: if you're looking at your watchist every minute, are you sure you're taking this seriously enough? "It is critical that editors don't patrol sloppily nor treat it as a game or contest."  Rebbing  21:09, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rebbing Even if the watchlist will not show the "stayed changes", I regularly go through the entire list anyway. Also, I can assure you I'm one of the most serious NPPers around. That's why I've continued this a long time. I can assure you it's not a "game", it's instead that I know what can and cannot be accepted. Even if you disagree with some of my patrols, I still take it seriously and, to be honest, I'm not a fan of such overchallenging articles, as it's not easy to see if the user will improve it soon or not....thus I watchlist it. SwisterTwister talk 21:12, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Rebbing and SwisterTwister: Another thing I notice is that you've missed several copyvios that you would've noticed had you taken more time to actually look at the page. And this is much more serious than failing CSD A7—not to say that failing A7 isn't serious. However, CSD G12 is up there with G3 vandalism, G10 attack pages, and G11 spam as articles which must be removed immediately in order to preserve the integrity of the encyclopedia. You seem to be taking WP:don't bite the newcomers to an absurd extreme. Why do you think they created CSD? Because most pages like that won't be improved: the editor is simply promoting themselves or their product or just being a troll.
And one final thought: if everyone is upset with you for doing your job inadequately, maybe it's because you are? –Compassionate727 (T·C) 12:37, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Okay. At this point, I'm finding it difficult to believe that you are editing in good faith. I bring up my concerns about your basic behaviors in regards to this very important endeavor, and you respond by hiding this entire conversation instead of addressing any of it. When I go back through your archives, I see you've been receiving numerous complaints about this for more than five years, and who knows how other ones there are that you simply blanked like this. I don't even know what to say. I'm not the kind of person who typically makes accusations—I prefer to assume good faith and then have a calm, sensible discussion about things. But it's hard to do that when you appear to be actively resisting everyone's efforts to communicate with you on the matter, simply claiming that you "are watching the pages"—which requires so much more effort to do than to simply actually tag the problems in the first place that I don't believe you're actually doing it. –Compassionate727 (T·C) 18:28, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I'm going to be plain and simple, Compassionate727, if you are going to remove my archiving of messages by restoring them, please stop and leave my talk page. FWIW, I explained above to Rebbing but I am not going to respond to someone who boldly removes archiving. Any further attempts to remove archivng will be taken as hounding. SwisterTwister talk 18:32, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that reverting your deletion of this discussion was inappropriate. While some editors prefer to archive their talk pages—I've kept all the unpleasant and downright rude comments I've received out of a sense of honesty—it's your prerogative to remove threads from your own talk page for any reason (or no reason), and other editors have to respect that. I'd also like to clarify that, while I strongly object to your patrolling, I've got nothing against you personally, I appreciated your politeness in replying to me, and I have no doubt about your dedication to Wikipedia.  Rebbing  18:56, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I hate to bring this up but, there seems to be a real ongoing issue here, maybe the flag should be removed until the understanding of the reviewing process is resolved. Mlpearc (open channel) 18:41, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Mlpearc: I believe this is actually about SwisterTwister's new pages patrol activity: it appears that, rather than actually patrolling new articles, he simply marks them as patrolled and adds them to his watchlist for future perusal, thus short-circuiting the curation process. The NPP guide explicitly recommends against this: "If you are uncertain, leave the page unpatrolled, and another volunteer can review it later."  Rebbing  19:07, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

With nearly five hundred patrols in the last 24 hours, it's clear SwisterTwister is treating this as a game (see the comment above about patrolling from multiple consoles simultaneously), and it's beyond belief that he's meaningfully following up with each one of these articles in a timely fashion. It's equally clear he's not swayed by our protests. If you and I are correct in our concerns, this is a serious matter. Perhaps you'd care to bring this up—respectfully—at the new pages patrol noticeboard?  Rebbing  18:56, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Rebbing: Sorry, I'm not familiar with that noticeboard at all, at the moment it would be beyond me to author an issue there. Mlpearc (open channel) 19:08, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@SwisterTwister: You have not addressed my concerns—specifically the one about copyvios—nor have you really satisfied anyone else. You claim to not tag pages because you are watching to see if the user improves them. However, the user isn't going to know that it needs improvement if you don't tell them there's a problem, which is part of the reason maintenance templates exist in the first place. In my experience, the vast majority of people will make all intended edits to an article quickly, and will apply a {{new page}} tag otherwise, so waiting on them to edit is pointless, so they usually don't have intention to if they haven't edited in 10 minutes. Especially those stubs for football players which people mass produce. There's no point in waiting on someone to improve those, no one has any intention of doing so.
You're claim that I am interfering with your "archiving" is exaggerated when you hadn't added it to an archive. You were simply eliminating all trace of the conversation except for the history itself. I understand it is the right of a user to remove notifications they've read, but I'm quite certain that isn't an excuse to ignore someone's attempts to interact with you. I had at least assumed it was clear that I expected a reply to my last message.
I apologize for being so accusatory. I recognize that that only inflames discussions. Nevertheless, you so far have been very dismissive about people's concerns about your handling of this, and so I am attempting to make it crystal clear that I have some very big ones.
Does any of this make any sense to you, or do I need to go into even more detail? –Compassionate727 (T·C) 19:31, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Please note that I began working on that comment after SwisterTwister's last reply directly to me, and that it doesn't address any of Rebbing's and Mlpearc's comments. –Compassionate727 (T·C) 19:50, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Rebbing I kindly wish for the heads of this thread to end thus my removing of it but I will say that about three fourths (3/4) is actually acceptable material and it's only remaining piece that require serious needs such as tagging and deleting. You can see for yourself (between the articles for villages, sports, trains, etc.) so it's no serious trouble that I reviewed "500". I will explain again about " watching" them, I read my watchlist multiple times a day, and you nktice I'm heavily present at AfD. If I may not immediately, say, nominate an article for AfD, that's because I'm currently voting at the dparsely voted AfDs so there will be comfort room for attention if I nominate. Again I assure NPP is not a game for me and I take it quite seriously. Sincerely, SwisterTwister talk 19:37, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
So far, you're the only one seeing the logistical feasibility of checking every page on your watchlist after the fact. Come on! After one week, you're checking for problems on 3,500 pages that you should've already done all that for. You also seem to be under the impression that NPP exists only for the purpose of deleting problem ones. It isn't. This is not AfC. If a page doesn't qualify for deletion, you are supposed to tag it for problems, which you haven't been doing. And before replying to that by saying that you're watching them, read my first two sentences again. –Compassionate727 (T·C) 19:49, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Rebbing: As I just came here to ask about this behavior (again), we are at least four editors in one day now. This definitely calls for some kind of formal resolution. Maybe it's time to take this to WP:ANI? Kolbasz (talk) 20:37, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Kolbasz Rebbing, AFAIK, had read my comments and "hoped to not be obstruvively anymore" and yet here comes this comment again. I have no plans to end my beneficial work at NPP and I certainly am not going to respond to Compassionate727 after the heated moments yesterday. SwisterTwister talk 20:46, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@SwisterTwister: By not being obtrusive, I wasn't talking about this: I meant I hoped replying to one of your AfC responses wasn't offensive. (I had your talk page on my watchlist following my remarks above, and I couldn't resist.) I'd like to say, before this goes wherever it's going to go, that I personally appreciate your contributions. I'm obviously familiar with you from AfD—I see you in nearly every discussion—but I've also noticed your article-space contributions, and, this week, I've had a chance to peek at your admirable AfC work as well. So please don't think I've got a problem with you, because I don't.  Rebbing  21:00, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Kolbasz: I think ANI would be appropriate at this point. Earlier, I'd suggested raising this at NPPN, but that noticeboard doesn't offer binding decisions, and this issue has already been discussed by several editors without resolution. If we're correct, we need to have this addressed; if we're mistaken, it'd be good for SwisterTwister to have an answer to the editors who keep raising these issues here. Are you going to make the complaint?  Rebbing  21:00, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

ANI brought me here, and going through your patrol log, I've found Nuclear (band), which you marked as patrolled, even though it was obvious that it was an A7 and relied on only one source, which happened to be a primary source. I have to question your practise in patrolling new pages. Dschslava (talk) 04:09, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SwisterTwister,

Thank you for your effort on reviewing a draft I created on Draft:ATP Electronics , and I appreciate your suggestions that it needs more in-depth news sources overall.

As I am still quite new to Wikipedia, and still digesting the notability rules of creating an article, would you be so kind to point out which existing references I've used for Draft:ATP Electronics is considered a notable source in your opinion ? Are there other suggestions for referencing a notable source ?


This would help in terms of editing the article and adding more in-depth sources before I submit my review again.

This was a redirect to High Priest of Israel. The editor who recreated it seems to be promoting himself in the article, which in any case I suspect is fringe at best.

02:17:16, 28 April 2016 review of submission by Evaki1972[edit]

Instead of just deleting my page, can you actually offer some advice on how to write it or fix it. It's not promotional. I don't work for the company. This is a company that works with the CIA, FBI, Dept of Defense and National Counterterrorism Center to ensure American's safety. Not sure how that is not a relevant subject matter, but Selena Gomez and Offspring Entertainment are. I have used both NY Times (which is as good as it gets for a press reference) as reference, and official government documents as reference. Are official government documents from the Clinton administration and the 911 Commission not real enough for you? It said on wikipedia's rules that you are supposed to use real references in addition to external links. So how are my references not adequate? Yet the references on other approved pages that are very similar that I have in fact submitted to other articles, ok'd? I was told draft space is where people are nice and help you develop your article by giving you feedback. I have spent over 3 weeks writing this article and researching it and it's founders. And I just get a note saying it's deleted because it's promotional. Please advise on how you would fix this article...Evaki1972 (talk) 02:17, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Evaki1972: I'm not SwisterTwister, but I'm going to interject here anyway. First, your draft hasn't been deleted; I'm not sure why you think it has, but it's clearly still there, the deletion log says it's never been deleted, and SwisterTwister doesn't have the power to delete it.
SwisterTwister told you what was wrong with your draft: it reads like promotional copy: it's mealy-mouthed, full of "weasel words" like "disrupt" and "methodology," vague statements like "Since its formation, the company has worked alongside numerous government agencies and social organizations to solve and analyze problems and issues of national concern" or "Over the last decade, RL Leaders has worked with various offices of the United States government," and marketing baloney like "Chief Executive Officer, John Rogers, professional life has centered on politics and policy." (As an aside, that sentence needs to be axed, but, if you kept it, it should read: "Chief Executive Officer John Rogers' professional life . . . .") Volunteers like SwisterTwister will give you pointers, but they aren't here to teach you how to write. Writing's hard—believe me, I know; I struggle with it too, but that's no excuse.
If you want my advice—and you may not at this point, but I am trying to help you here, so you'd be wise to take it: Cut your draft by three quarters. Discard everything that isn't essential to your point. Remove every phrase that isn't specific. Less is more. Then take what's left and make it more pointed. I read the article, and I still have no idea what RL Leaders is. (And don't tell me here; tell me in your article.)
Two specific things that stood out to me: don't capitalize things that aren't proper nouns. "National security" and "Government" aren't capitalized. And remove those navboxes at the bottom of your draft: They're only appropriate when your article is listed in them, which it isn't. Best.  Rebbing  03:09, 28 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your response. I'm not quite sure how to word it any other way....If 3 CIA agents were paired with a Director of Photography and and editor, to analyze terrorist snuff videos and propaganda videos to determine what machines they are editing on and what cameras are being used and where the cameras were bought, that would be pairing govt officials with creative people to work on issues of national security. How would you word it without getting too in depth? Clearly this is an important company, but much like the CIA, they don't disclose a lot of what they do. Also, I read about 5 dozen wikipedia pages that talk about their CEO's and their CEO's history and how they ended up running the company that they run. There doesn't seem to be much consistency on wikipedia's rules? I am getting all kinds of advice, yet all the advice I am given, I've seen on other approved wikipedia pages, that I have in fact modeled mine after. I will continue to try to work on the draft, as I said, I don't give two shits about promoting something. I'm tryign to talk about a company and who formed it. Who runs it. and their history before ending up working for an arm of the CIA. Please do respond if you can think of a clearer lead sentence to explain what they do. Thank you much. Also, when it comes to capitalizing "National security" it is because I'm linking it to the wikipedia page for National security I thought when linking to other pages, you are supposed to write the page exactly as wikipedia writes it, correct? Please advise. Trying to learn wikpedia is like trying to learn new language as an adult. It's not easy, and I don't do wikipedia for a living. So any advice is appreciated. Evaki1972 (talk) 20:31, 29 April 2016 (UTC)Evaki1972 (talk) 20:25, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

As a quick note, the initial letter is autocapitalized in a link, so both red and Red point to the same place. And as for the initial sentence, I would go with something like
RL Leaders is a company that was formed in 2004 to allow for the addition of people and technology from the entertainment industry to government counter-terrorism efforts.
Then *explain* in the second sentence why given the 9-11 commission report it was viewed as needed (and include creative there).Naraht (talk) 20:49, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
@Evaki1972: Hello, Evaki. First, I'd like to say that I'm sorry if I sounded bitchy yesterday. Thanks for explaining: I think I now understand what RL Leaders does; I'm intrigued by the company's work, although I would have guessed the intelligence community had its own internal experts for these kinds of issues.
You're right that there are plenty of problematic articles on Wikipedia. It's not so much that rules are applied inconsistently as that some articles slip through the cracks for one reason or another. Since you're going through Articles for Creation rather than straight-up creating your article, you're getting feedback about these issues right off the bat, which, while frustrating, is in your best interests: fixing these things now makes it less likely your article will go poof! three months from now, and it also helps your article be more useful to our readers. If you're looking at other articles for examples—a good idea—stick to our "good" and "featured" articles: they've been selected by the community as exemplary content; Wikipedia:Featured articles § Companies would be a good place to start.
I like Naraht's suggested lede. Another option would be something like:

RL Leaders is a company that provides consulting and staffing services for the intelligence community concerning multimedia technology with a focus on counterterrorism and video analysis.

I feel you on learning Wikipedia. I began my editing career in earnest just a few months ago, and I've had to study so many things: Wikipedia's formatting and markup, our standard templates, our house style manual and referencing conventions, our content guidelines and policies, editing norms and policies, and the conventions for discussing and resolving content disagreements, to name a few, and that's not even counting all of our internal processes!

In order to comply with the rules of WP:CREATIVE and to show her work has "won significant critical attention" I have added references to her multiple awards and accomplishments in the documentary world from the last year.

In the last 5 months Julie Goldman has had 2 films she produced shortlisted for the documentary feature Academy Award, "Best of Enemies" and "3 1/2 Minutes Ten Bullets",[1] she has had two feature documentaries she produced win at Sundance 2016, "Weiner" and "Life, Animated",[2] and she has won the 2016 Amazon Studios Sundance Institute Producer’s Award.[3]

This is in addition to her two decades of decorated work as a documentary producer. I believe these new references that have been added to her page prove that her work indeed has "won significant critical attention" and I hope it can be approved. Thank you for taking the time to review this page!

Secondary school AfD close[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister. I noticed that you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Colégio Anglo Drummond (I was about to return to follow up on my previous comments there) as speedy keep, with the rationale that "secondary schools are always kept as notable". While it's true that the majority of such schools are indeed kept, as summarised by WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES, they are not always kept. See, for example, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Good Shepherd English School and Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2016 March 30#Good Shepherd English School. I find it problematic that SCHOOLOUTCOMES is being used to close AfDs before a full discussion has been allowed to take place. Cordless Larry (talk) 06:47, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cordless Larry At best though, the general consensus at several AfDs, now and the past, always seem to say to keep secondary schools. With the only other cases being that they be moved to the local school group or the community itself. SwisterTwister talk 06:52, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, but consensus is supposed to be open to change, and that can't happen if AfDs are closed early on the basis of past consensus. It's circular reasoning. Cordless Larry (talk) 06:56, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Having reviewed Wikipedia:Speedy keep, I don't think that outcome is justified in this case, so have opened Wikipedia:Deletion review/Log/2016 April 29#Colégio Anglo Drummond. Please do comment if you feel that it is appropriate. Cordless Larry (talk) 07:44, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I've just seen that Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Köksal Ersayın Anatolian High School was also closed in the same way, although the consensus there seems clearer and it was much closer to running for seven days so I don't want to create unnecessary work for anyone by listing that for review as well. Pinging Stifle in case your view differs. Cordless Larry (talk) 13:34, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Although I personally do think all high schools should be considered notable, I don't think a speedy close is appropriate, sicne it is still a disputed issue. Stifle, I think your relisting was the right way to deal with it. DGG ( talk ) 19:51, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Greenbrook Elementary School[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

I am very new at Wikipedia, I noticed that you reviewed my Greenbrook Elementary School page. What can I do to improve it? I was planning to add a lot more information and pictures, the principle of the school was helping me find more sources. Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.

Request on 18:06:41, 29 April 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Slothbearina[edit]


Hi Thanks for reviewing my draft of an article on the artist Moritz Götze. It was rejected - despite me providing references from a wide range of sources, as required. This time the reviewer's objection was that the artist's work needed to be in major collections. However, this was never mentioned as a prerequisite the first couple of times. I feel this is unfair. Will there be a different kind of objection every time I try to meet the requirements. Please, check the article again. Once it is up, many more people will contribute and add descriptions of the artist's notability. Thanks! Still hopeful, Slothbearina Slothbearina (talk) 18:06, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

19:05:41, 29 April 2016 review of submission by MarkDPrindle[edit]


I'm not requesting a re-review. I just have a quick question. Is the editor saying that I need more major sources (like Wall Street Journal, Forbes and TechCrunch), more sources overall (meaning that more financial/banking trades would be fine), or both? And what number of sources (major and overall) would be sufficient to show notability?

Thank you in advance!


MarkDPringle, I've independently looked at this, and I see no clear evidence of notability. The only substantial article is the one in the Independent. I consider it however the evident product of public relations--essentially a slightly disguised press release, and everything else is an unambiguous press release, or a mere notice. Techchruch is prone to publish material on new and non notable startup companies, and is not a discriminating source--and even it it describes the firm as "Credorax, a small startup" I could judge the likelihood of your being able to find adequate sources would probably depend on the size of the bank, and I see no financial information: that's pretty basic in an article about a financial institution.
But even more important, since I note you have written on no other topic, is the question of possible conflict on interest. Please see our rules, at WP:COI, and, if they in fact do apply, make the necessary declaration. See also our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure.

19:13:15, 29 April 2016 review of submission by Thy12[edit]


Hi SwisterTwister !!!

I made on the changes on the Draft for GreatApps.com which was eliminating the multiple URL's which was links to credible new sources that mentioned the company and its owner.

I am a little confused on the last remaining issue. Meaning, the links that were there before did come large media outlets which verified the company and the person (in terms of topic of conversation). This translated to different links from different sources. Thus, I am bit confused as to why then this would not be added to Wiki. I am sure you get this often, but I have seen countless items listed in Wiki that have no support whatsoever. At least for my post I did provide it.

Any guidance outside the standard template or reconsideration would be really helpful.

Thank you !!! Thy

Thy12 (talk) 19:13, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thy12, since SwisterTwister seems a little busy at the moment, I've made an independent review of the draft. I see no notability, and no likelihood of there being sources to show it. The TNW reference is an obvious press release, saying whatever the firm wants them to say. The Crunchbase and alexa items are just directory listings, and cannot be used to show notability.
Please see also our rules on Conflict of Interest, at WP:COI, and our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure As you have written on no other topic, they might possibly apply. DGG ( talk ) 19:30, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You are quite right that there are several hundred thousand articles in WP accepted in earlier years when the standards were lower that we need to either upgrade or remove. The least we can do is not add to them.

When reviewing new articles[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister. When reviewing new articles, please take the time to skim them and see if you can tell if they are a copyright violation. I ask you to do this because CorenSearchBot is not operating at present, and neither is the search engine function of Earwig's tool. A good way to locate copyright violations is to perform a Google search on snippets of suspicious-looking prose.

Undo of Unbiased disambiguation page[edit]

Hi,

You were a little bit vague with your reason for undoing the revision to the "unbiased" page redirect - you said "Still not enough".

From: John Novack (JTNwriter) Hi, First, thank you for your prompt review and feedback on the submission of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Inspire_%28company%29. I see some ways I can make improvements so it meets the standards.

I have reviewed numerous other company-specific articles. I have dug into a number that are Inspire competitors, direct and indirect. Several I list below seem to have less sourcing, and more "peacock" phrasing. And with all due respect to a few of the companies listed below, what they've accomplished and where they are in the marketplace isn't that notable--and if it is, it isn't clear in their articles. As for "Patient Power," there's a reference that it's the "U.S. leader in online audio and video programs for patients," and that is directly from the founder, Andrew Schorr. I bring up these 4 examples only to try to understand better exactly where and to what degree the Inspire submission still falls short. We are a leader in the fairly new niche in which we operate. Having an online community of three quarter of a million patients/caregivers is significant--far greater than HealthBoards, DailyStrength, and even PatientsLikeMe, which I think has an impressive and detailed Wikipedia page. Inspire works with most of the top 25 pharmas in the world is something few if any of the companies of our type have accomplished. Having exclusive partnerships with so many nonprofit organizations is unparalleled.

1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HealthBoards (peacock) 2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MedHelp (peacock, and NO sources) 3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DailyStrength (only 7 sources) 4. Patient Power LLC U.S. leader in online audio and video programs for patients hosted by Andrew Schorr, a medical journalist and 14-year leukemia survivor. Patient Power's reliable resources connect, educate, and empower patients to take a proactive role in their healthcare. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Online_health_communities

In sum, I appreciate your prior feedback, and I am committed to presenting the editors with the best possible submission for review. Thanks again.

Superprestigio of the Americas[edit]

More mainstream references will not exist for this topic. As much as it pains me, the "Stick and Ball" media doesn't care about motorcycle racing, and motorcycles and motorcyclists only make it to mainstream media when there is a death or crime involved. The sources for this are always going to be very specific to the sport. The sources are not, however, directly connected to the event or promotors and are in fact, independently written.

I have checked with three well-known editors in the motorcycle enthusiast press industry (namely Brian Catterson, Nick Ienatsch, and Paul Seredynski--Cycle World, Motorcyclist, Cycle News, Sport Rider, Edmunds, and MSN Autos among their positions) and each of them have had no major edits to the Wikipedia article.

Thank you for reviewing the article, and I'm looking forward to having it approved for publication.

CSD A7[edit]

Please note that WP:CSD A7 is not about notability, so you should not use the term in your edit summaries when tagging. Indeed, as the policy notes, a credible claim of significance is easier to meet and demonstrate than notability. I think it would be prudent to use some other deletion criteria and/or process for some of your recent nominations. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 01:15, 7 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Gospel of Simon: Revelation of the Sacred Mystyeries[edit]

Hello. The Gospel of Simon: Revelation of the Sacred Mysteries is a book that documents and references support for the conclusions summarized on the wiki page.

Notifications[edit]

Please notify article creators when you tag articles for deletion. While it is acceptable in some cases not to notify, in general we should.

George Groslier[edit]

You placed a "biography of living persons" warning at the top of the article that I created about the French scholar of Cambodian culture George Groslier. This warning was in error, as it is appropriate only to living persons, and Grolier died in 1945. The Infobox indicated that Grolier was deceased, but the lead paragraph did not. That oversight has been corrected. Therefore, I have removed your warning. In addition, I have placed an "Under construction" box at the top of the article, as I will be working extensively on this article over the coming weeks. I have reference sources for the article but will be inserting them after inserting most of the text. Please go to my Talk page if you have questions. Thank you.

Here are friendly suggestions for both of you. SwisterTwister, please do not place BLP tags on articles about people born in the 19th century who have been dead for 70 years. Dylanexpert, please develop your new articles in sandbox space or draft space at least until they have at least two or three references to reliable, independent sources. Then, you can move them to main space. Unreferenced articles are a red flag to new page patrollers. Thanks to both of you. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 00:07, 9 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your reasons for declining this page seem to be following their own logic. I have been told in the commons that this should be accepted as it was (let alone with the new edits). It meets the guidelines Wikipedia names for notability (secondary coverage in major media, academic accolades).

Redirect Cis-Kuen Lun Tract to Trans-Karakoram Tract[edit]

The Cis-Kuen Lun Tract is the same as the Trans-Karakoram Tract which I have edited extensively! You wanted sources. The Times Atlas link which shows the depiction of the northern border of Kashmir is the source! The map displays an enclosed area in northern Kashmir with the caption "Undefined Frontier area". The area encompassing the caption "Undefined Frontier area" is the Cis-Kuen Lun Tract. It is the same thing as the Trans-Karakoram Tract. The only difference is that the while the Trans-Karakoram Tract extends from the Karakoram Range northwards to the Kuen Lun Range, the Cis-Kuen Lun Tract extends from the Kuen Lun Range southwards towards the Karakoram range in central Kashmir. View the Times Atlas map of 1954 which depicts the northern border of Kashmir on the watershed of the Kuen Lun Range on the Taghdumbash Pamir, Mariom Pamir, and the Raskam range or ridge and depicts the caption "Undefined Frontier area" below it extending towards the Karakoram range and the Chhogori Peak K2 but not actually touching K2 as even the Times Atlas did not consider the K2 peak to be disputed. Nor did the Times Atlas consider the Shaksgam Valley disputed for that matter as can be seen in the 1954 map published by the Times Atlas.I am adding this because there is a concerted effort to restrict the Trans-Karakoram Tract to the Shaksgam Valley which is clearly erroneous and not borne out by records!Even the official map published by the The Government of Pakistan depicting the alignment of the northern Border of Kashmir in 1962, depicted much of the Cis-Kuen Lun Tract as part of Kashmir and the alignment published by the Government of Pakistan predominantly was similar to and coincided with the portrayal of the northern Border of Kashmir in 1954 by the Times Atlas which had predominantly depicted the Cis-Kuen Lun Tract as a part of Kashmir under the caption "Undefined Frontier area" though at places, the official position of the Government of

Map depicting the official alignment of the northern border of Kashmir in 1962 according to the Government of Pakistan

Pakistan deviated from the position of the Times Atlas and the Government of Pakistan even depicted areas as part of Kashmir which were to the north of the border of Kashmir as published in 1954 by the Times Atlas! Also for an idea of the extent of the Trans-Karakoram Tract or the Cis-Kuen Lun Tract, please view this map (C) from the Joe Schwartzberg's Historical Atlas of South Asia at DSAL in Chicagowith the caption, "The boundary of Kashmir with China as portrayed and proposed by Britain prior to 1947". The geographical and territorial extent of the Trans-Karakoram Tract or the Trans-Kuen Lun Tract is more or less the territory enclosed between the northern most line and the innermost lines! Also if one were to look for sources or references for the Trans-Karakoram Tract on the internet, the only references would be the articles on Wikipedia and no other. So there!

Hence I request you to redirect Cis-Kuen Lun Tract to Trans-Karakoram Tract and then there will be no need for a separate article titled Cis-Kuen Lun Tract. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.51.31.23 (talk) 07:45, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

10:30:49, 10 May 2016 review of submission by Nairji[edit]


Hello David,

Thank you again for your review and the feedback. Appreciate it.

With complete regard and due respect to your judgement I would like to put my argument forward to reconsider the declination because the citations and links provided are from some of the leading publications in India. And moreover the links / references submitted are not "passing comments" about the subject, most of them are dedicated interviews given by her in main-line media (print as well as television) and these television channels are in top 10 channels based on the popularity as well as the viewership when it comes to entertainment segment in India.

Requesting you to re-look at it, the references and links have been kept very specific and the selected sources are notable from a geo-specific popularity viewpoint.

Looking forward to a response from your side.

Thanks and best regards, Nairji (talk) 10:30, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Anthony Jakobs[edit]

Reviewing Anthony Jakobs you spend less than 60 seconds and chose to tag it with {{notability}} using Page Curation in Previous revision of Anthony Jakobs. To me the article with sentences like

Jakobs has gone through multiple aliases including Antonio Cabreja, Anthony Jako, and West Jaco, before deciding on Anthony Jakobs. He's stated that Anthony Jakobs is simply the most professional and flows the best.

reeks of 14-year old writing his WP:AB, and I can't find a single thing that, to me, sounds like a credible claim of significance. Which do you find is a CCS?

Another thing I would have done prior to tagging with {{db-person}} would have been to remove

Sydney Glaciarium[edit]

Hi, I got a tag from you for a reference improvement for the article on the Sydney Glaciarium. Before removing the tag you applied I thought I'd point out that absolutely every section of content on that article is in fact referenced and also every reference is from a major national newspaper. Newspaper articles from the time period, citing an event that took place in that time period, are about as credible a source and high quality a source that you can get ... I completely disagree that the credibility of the references need to be improved and do beg you to acknowledge national newspaper articles from the given time period as being one of the most credible references possible. I purposely try to not use reflective articles, written about an event years after the fact. I am happy to discuss this further with you if you still do not agree that articles written for national newspapers by first hand witnesses to the event, at the time the event occurred, are a credible reference.

How I would improve this article on the historic Sydney Glaciarium is not credibility of the references, but the quantity of information on the article itself. Something I am in the process of doing and in the very spirit of the wiki - hope others do too. Orion 2012 (talk) 12:42, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Dear SwisterTwister, thanks for your second rejection and 3rd from Wiki's editor team as it allows me to provide even more references from international coverages of Charged Hong Kong despite the fact that it is a year old. There are now 56 references and they are either critically important to the development of the officially registered charity in Hong Kong or simply highly notable such as Forbes, Bloomberg, Reuters, CNBC, BBC, International Business Times, etc. Just to name a few. I have also written the article according to the Wikipedia's "guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:The_answer_to_life,_the_universe,_and_everything, which states that "Articles generally require significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the topic." As far as anyone can tell, age of the organisation as the reason you have repeatedly rejected my article on, in this case on Charged Hong Kong as a registered charity doing good things to the world advocating clean air through electric vehicle adaptation, does not appear in any sense as a specific requirement and prerequisite by Wikipedia as a reason for rejection of article submission. What's more, using 'age' of a person, an organisation and particularly for a registered charity to judge its influence to the world is immature and unprofessional. Simply because by naming a minimum age requirement to be worthy of an article on Wikipedia, there will be thousands of counter-examples on Wikipedia.

Hello SwisterTwister. I'm a very new Wikipedia contributor. Not even beginning to be an editor. Earlier this month I added an article about Joseph McCormackMD. Today, I wanted to start an article about his son Arthur T McCormack but somehow instead of putting it in my sandbox, I put in somewhere for all the world to see. I'm just about finished with it, but in the meantime, I'd really like to understand what changes you made so I'll better know how to write in the future. Plus, I've got some questions about things that aren't working correctly and would love it if someone like you could help me through the sweet spots.

Hi,

i made an article on Aftab Group of Bangladesh, where i had my internship few years back. And now have no relationship with them. (So no chance for any interest conflict)

However i found that the article has been nominated for deletion.

I know that my article is not very very informative for a big group of business like aftab group.

but i sense their presence should be on wiki.

Please do not delete my article at once rather help me out in retaining the same, as i am new as a writer on wiki..

Request to keep Seraphim (American Band) page up[edit]

I would like to request that Seraphim (American Band) be kept up and not considered for deletion, as they are an established, even if unsigned, musical group. They have worked with higher-class musicians such as Johnny Franck of Attack Attack! and their music is legally obtainable through iTunes purchases.

Proof of Johnny Franck's work with them: http://www.johnnyfranck.com/

  • Under selected credits and discography, Seraphim's music is listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Apartion (talk • contribs) 06:43, 13 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proper Sources[edit]

The sources listed on the Joey Fatts article are very reputable, Vibe Magazine, Billboard, MTVNEWS, XXL Magazine...... I'm not sure how much more credible it gets for a newer artist... He also has an upcoming tour that will give him much more press but I need his wiki up. Please please let me know how I can get this darn thing up because it has already taken up far more time than I allotted for it. Thank you so much for your help!

A barnstar for you![edit]

The Editor's Barnstar
Just a BIG thank you for the support I have received from you in chat on Wikipedia. As a newbie here, I have the utmost admiration for the people here who give their time - extremely generously - to help others, like myself, and tomaintain this amazing free resource - that is Wikipedia. The more I come here, the more impressed I am. There are corporate organisations that pay large wages to people, that don't provide any where close to the service that I have received on Wikipedia, and when you consider that the Wikipedia service is provided by committed volunteers who don't get paid anything, I feel I have to pay my respects and major gratitude to people like yourself. BIG respect and simply Thank You VERY much! Keep up the great work. Monty heath (talk) 15:44, 14 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

14:47:27, 15 May 2016 review of submission by Bingargiola[edit]


Hello,

What other information do you think would be needed in this article? I looked at many different sources, peer reviewed articles, scientific journals - and I cited them all, so I am a little confused about the references. I developed this page as an independent study with my college advisor while taking a scuba diving course. Based on direct experience and what I learned from the research, I believe I created a thorough and complete page. I think it is an important concept and needs to have its own page, not exist within the larger page of just Scuba Diving.

Thank you,

Brendan Ingargiola

Dev Randhawa article[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

You have reviewed my article for Dev Randhawa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dev_Randhawa) and (I presume this was you) marked it for speedy deletion. The reason given was:

"All still questionable for the needed solid independent notability at WP:GNG"

I looked at the link for WP:GNG and came to the conclusion that the articles sources are problematic? If this is so, do let me know and I'll make the necessary changes - if I have to provide new sources for you to review I'll happily do so.

Hey, I have followed the review history for this article and believe I have made the necessary changes. But rather than resubmit it, I thought I would ask you first. Daniel Darling is a significant contributor in the evangelical world whose position at the ERLC representing 16 million Southern Baptists qualifies him as someone "notable." Whoever made these recent edits clearly did not know what they were doing. Based on the edits I made, would you say I have acquired enough independent resources or should I still find my sources? Please advise! Thank you for your help making wikipedia a professional encyclopedia. -Peter

Hello SwisterTwister,

This article has been declined several times for lack of sources. I provided multiple 3rd party, non local sources that confirm the vineyard's notability and it was declined.

North Carolina wine is a booming industry in the state that has recently attributed to it being also known as the East Coast's Wine Valley. Missouri and other smaller wine states have Wikipedia pages with substantially less credible and notable vineyard pages. The Raffaldini Vineyard is wildly popular, so much so that Obama brought a bottle of wine to the Italian President.

I understand Wikipedia's effort to keep the site credible, but it shouldn't be this difficult to get an article approved with valuable content. How can we work together to get this published?

Below are less notable vineyards and wine states with approved Wikipedia pages:

This Week Newspaper[edit]

Hello David, thank you for reviewing the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:This_Week_Newspaper submission and I'll go through the references one by one to try weeding out the sources that don't fit the the golden rule exactingly. Because the article deals with historic publishing events, my first inclination, rightly or wrongly, was to provide evidence of their existence using documents and images throughout the referencing process. Like the article on "The Independent" newspaper at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Independent, a number of the references used are not entirely independent (sic) in that the sources are The Independent itself and I would welcome your advice on this.

From Anna[edit]

Hello, my friend. I'm probably missing something obvious, but has anyone just asked you to maybe work other areas besides reviewing? A lot of people seem to find that you are going too fast or making errors or something.

Starting articles is bags of fun. We could work together on some of that. Thoughts? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 00:07, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Sir David
This article is created by some pan-arabists his name is alhaqiqa
This person vandalized many times the berbers article and also he commented on the articles for deletion to save his article so i deleted his comment
The North African Arabs article is created to abuse berbers and to distorting facts
In a section of this article "Berberisation and Berberised Arabs" they write Racism in North-Africa !!
There is an article "Arabs" so there is no need to create another article
I realy want your your opinion
This is his comment on the debate
"Keep Be Aware! This page is put up for deletion by a Berberist which has deleted many important information of many good pages on wikipedia about arabs. I already blocked AyOuBoXe of the page because he has deleted much reliable information without any sources or explanation. This is just a childish act of a North-African Berber which is playing games on Wikipedia and trying to remove the history of North-African Arabs. "

naitikavyas[edit]

Hello, Would like to have your advise on what content should be exclude on the page [9] for it to get accepted. I have personally met this individual and honest to goodness his show "Yoga for you" on Zee International is so famous that it completed more than 1000 episodes. You can find out how many shows have crossed 1000+ episodes in Health and Wellness category, my belief is hardly any. I need your suggestion to make this article accepted in wikipedia.

draft; Peter Reder[edit]

Hi re draft for Peter Reder

To answer your question, all the galleries and museums cited in the article are national institutions that have permanent collections. Just curious - why would this be a sticking point? Prestigious theatre venues and events also cited, and refs to well known publications. Thanks Celestial99 (talk) 08:38, 1 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Global Force Wrestling Amped[edit]

Hi, could you redirect GFW Amped to Global Force Wrestling#GFW Amped? I mentioned this in the AfD and nobody opposed; it seems uncontroversial but the page got salted after it was created following a previous AfD. Thanks.LM2000 (talk) 02:08, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Huh, I must be nuts. Turned out it wasn't salted after all and I was able to redirect it myself. Thanks anyway!LM2000 (talk) 02:40, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Request on 21:38:24, 2 June 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by 50.187.57.196[edit]


Thanks for reviewing my submission. I'll add reliable news sources as you suggest. As a first timer, perhaps you can advise on a couple of things: 1) do references have to be public or (for example) would analyst reports or conference material that require a subscription to access be acceptable? 2) there are a few other folks that are independent of the company that could contribute to the article. Is it OK for them to do so on this draft page, or is it better that one of them resubmit?

appreciate the help!

50.187.57.196 Yes to all of your questions; as for the analyst reports, if it's specifically about the company, you could add them, news is particularly what's important here. SwisterTwister talk 22:00, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Signac, LLC: Request for assistance on AfC submission[edit]


You said the page could not be posted because the company was "only founded this year thus it's not yet notable because it's too soon". Is this a rule that Wikipedia has? I can't find anything like that in the "notability guidelines", and it seems like an arbitrary decision. Signac is a joint venture by two separate billion-dollar, very notable companies, and is using software with a well-established track record. I made sure that my article had multiple citations from major, independent news sources that described the significance of Signac, which fulfills the all primary criteria for notability (depth of coverage; audience; independence of sources; and illegal conduct - the last of which does not apply). As detailed in the coverage from secondary sources, Signac is already making a substantial global impact by helping banking institutions to eliminate rogue trading and avoid other financial crises that have made major headlines and cost billions of dollars in recent years.

Thus it doesn't seem "too soon", and it meets all of Wikipedia's criteria for notability. It seems to me that waiting a year to post a Wikipedia page about this company would just make Wikipedia out of date for that time. I appreciate any suggestions you can give me to improve the article otherwise.

Valid ref. links to undelete 'Anandmurti Gurumaa' page[edit]

Dear SwisterTwister,

This is the reference to the wikipedia page of Anandmurti gurumaa" which has recently been deleted following the deletion debate at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Anandmurti_Gurumaa . I had requested to resume this page,in response to which I have been directed to contact you (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion#anandmurti_gurumaa). I would like to bring to your kind notice that the reason mentioned in the debate is lack of independent resources and dead links, whereas lot of sources and independent links exist featuring work of Anandmurti gurumaa as a renowned Indian spiritual master.

Rockford Fosgate[edit]

Hi, I saw that you redirected the Rockford Fosgate page to Jim Fosgate back in 2015. You wrote "Nothing to suggest independent notability or better improvement and may be best moved to Jim's article". I want to rewrite the page focusing on the history of the company but wanted to get your buy-in first since you took down the page. If I send you a draft, will you review it?

199.203.9.144 I meant to reply earlier but have not found the time to, you can certainly start a draft but I encourage you to start an account first to maintain consistency. Also, I suggest gathering enough information and sources to actually suggest its own notable article because, when I found encountered, there wasn't anything at all. Frankly I'm not confident there's actually enough for his own notable article because it seems he was best known for this. SwisterTwister talk 22:37, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

09:40:07, 8 June 2016 review of submission by Jackie Partarrieu[edit]


Hi there. I am confused. You say that I did not use enough reliable sources (I cited NCBI, Lancet, Oxford Journals, the World Health Organisation, EORTC, ESMO, etc). Not sure where I can find more reliable/quality sources. You also said that there is not enough "significant coverage". We are talking about RARE cancers. That is the whole point. They are rare. Not many people care about them because they are "rare". Labs don't think there is enough money in them to make them profitable and interesting. Not enough research is done on them. Patients, children (all paediatric cancers are rare) are dying because of this. I was hoping a wikipedia article could add a little stone to the building of creating awareness of this not so rare, unfortunately, unmet health need. Can you please help me by explaining what more I can say and how I can go about it? I have mined Google to find more information but I think I have added all the quality sources I could find. Many thanks in advance for your guidance. Jackie

02:19:59, 11 June 2016 review of submission by 67.9.151.198[edit]


Hi SwisterTwister,

I respectfully disagree with your decision to decline this article and request a re-review. It has been built up by several authors independent of the subject over a long period of time. It meets the Golden Rule guidelines and the Guidelines for the Notability of Creative Professionals (filmmakers, etc.)

The Golden Rule: The subject indeed has significant coverage (multi-page editorials, not Q&A interviews) in reliable sources (NY Times, LA Times, LA Weekly, Hollywood Reporter, Variety, Filmmaker Magazine, IndieWire, the Museum of Modern Art, etc.) that are independent of the topic (of course, the periodicals previously mentioned aren't related to the subject of the article in any way).

Guidelines for the Notability of Creative Professionals:

1) The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.

The subject has been covered as one of the top 100 new filmmakers in a book published by Phaidon Press that was curated by major film festival programmers from around the world. The subject has also been nominated for an IFP Gotham Award. Also, included in the sources are interviews with other filmmakers who cite the work of the subject as an influence and something wholly original.

2) The person is known for originating a significant new concept, theory, or technique.

See the above respond to #1. The filmmaker is known for the originality of his work.

3) The person has created or played a major role in co-creating a significant or well-known work or collective body of work. In addition, such work must have been the subject of an independent book or feature-length film or of multiple independent periodical articles or reviews.

The subject created a work that was deemed significant by the NY Times, the Museum of Modern Art and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. The work, "Loren Cass", has also been the one of the subjects of a book ("Take 100" published by Phaidon Press) and of multiple independent periodical articles and reviews. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.9.151.198 (talk) 02:26, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

4) The person's work (or works) either (a) has become a significant monument, (b) has been a substantial part of a significant exhibition, (c) has won significant critical attention, or (d) is represented within the permanent collections of several notable galleries or museums.

The subject's feature film, "Loren Cass", is known for its originality (a), was featured in an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC (b), has been named a NY Times Critic's Pick and received strong reviews in numerous mainstream publications (c), was nominated for an IFP Gotham Award (c), and is represented at the Museum of Modern Art along with the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (d), linked below for verification.

Request on 17:17:06, 15 June 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Caerhys[edit]


Continuing the discussion at User_talk:SwisterTwister#This_Week_Newspaper, thanks, David, for your posting at User_talk:Caerhys, which has answered my first question as to where best to respond to your "Submission declined..." posting at Draft:This_Week_Newspaper. Please bear with me, I'm still finding my way.

References [1][1] and [30][2] have been added to the article to underpin the newspaper's notability in that the National Library of Wales holds a collection of the newspaper's editions and issues, which it continues to build, together with copies of the 1999/ 2000 Reader Survey. The newspaper itself was a reliable source of information throughout its seventeen year lifetime but I'm not sure if that counts. It also falls within the scope of WikiProject Wales to build a comprehensive and detailed guide to authoritative articles on Wales, and articles on Wales in Wikipedia.

I've run through all the other references and note many of them are there to provide evidence of the newspaper's existence and of events that led to its popularity and success before new media gained ground. This was particularly the case with campaigns conducted by the newspaper that resulted in significant outcomes. In reference [20][3] where a press release is used, this, together with reference [21][4], was to show how effective the newspaper had been in persuading visitors to abandon their cars and use public transport instead at their holiday destinations, to help reduce their carbon footprint in honeypot areas.

Additional amounts of in-depth, third-party news sources presents something of a challenge in that the newspaper itself was a primary news source by definition and apart from BBC TV's coverage of the official launch in 1989, reference [11][5], and their later coverage in 1990, reference [13][6], like the article on The Independent newspaper, a number of the references given are self-referencing and I would welcome your advice on this.

Deleted article restored[edit]

I am contacting you in connection with the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Two Sided Amphora 63.1515, in which you took part. I closed the discussion as "delete", but an editor has now contacted me, providing new sources. All but one of the sources are not available to me, so I cannot comment on their content, beyond the fact that they show that a larger number of scholarly works mention the amphora than was shown to be the case in the deletion discussion. However, I have obtained a copy of the other one of those sources, and I believe it significantly changes the situation from that which existed at the time of the AfD discussion. (It is available at http://www.jstor.org/stable/4171394 if you have JSTOR access.) Because I believe that this information significantly increases the amount of evidence of notability, I have recreated the article, but of course anyone who disagrees is free to take it back to AfD. I am informing everyone who took part in the discussion. The article is at Two-handled amphora (Boston 63.1515), having been moved from the original title given in the AfD page.

"Untold News" revision: please help.[edit]

Greetings.

You reviewed the original submission for "Untold News" and rejected it due to insignificant coverage about the subject and lack of media sources. I have subsequently revised the article, "Fleshed out the Untold News' mission, accomplishments and added many more media sources". You can see it here: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Untold_News&oldid=724518258

THE PROBLEM is that I am not certain it was uploaded properly, and whether it is in the Wikipedia system for revision and acceptance. There is a message on the site that I do not understand: Cite error: A <ref> tag is missing the closing </ref> (see the help page).

Please advise, and if possible review the revision and hopefully approve it for publication.

Ineligible speedy nomination[edit]

Per Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Speedy deletion, “If a page has survived a prior deletion discussion, it must not be speedy deleted except for newly discovered copyright violations.” You nominated the page for G11, purely promotional, when it went through an AfD, which you probably didn't notice, last year: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SANS Institute. I know this is probably an edge case, but it never hurts to check the talk page to see if a previous AfD kept the page. As history shows, however, it could still use a good bit of maintenance, so you are formally invited to help add balancing content and tone down whatever you see as promotion.

This is an entry to clarify information about the person behind a major political controversy which the entire South Korean nation knew and still knows about. It was in the headlines of major South Korean media for at least 5 days straight, and all of the news about this individual was the main topic of conversation among South Koreans for quite a long time. The topic has appeared on all major Korean shows and news outlets. Many Koreans still try to look up information about this individual because she recently reemerged into the spotlight via a series of interviews that she did about her work as an activist, writer, and an artist (the recent articles are also cited in the entry). The recent articles in question received thousands of likes on a major Korean news portal called "Daum" as well as other portals. Different articles that took from the original article also shared information about the individual through new articles that were created by different news outlets.

My reason for asking for this entry is that many people (both Korean and English-speakers) look up information about this individual because of the significant spotlight she has received starting from May 2014. You can even tell by typing in "candy koh" in a Google search bar, which tries to suggest that you complete the search by adding "law school" after the name.

Some people in forums have written false information about her. This wikipedia entry is necessary to correct any false information that has been spreading about her background, especially those that have been reported in the news already.

05:49:10, 25 June 2016 review of submission by 79.41.58.219[edit]


Dear SwisterTwister,

thank you for your message and for reviewing my article. I am a bit puzzled. My intention is not to create an article on someone who is not notable but, on the other hand, create a page (probably a stub) on a living person who is notable because of its inherited position in the House. I was inspired by several other articles of heir apparents (not head of Houses!) which I found on Wikipedia and, to be honest, have same notability. Check these pages, for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Scott,_Earl_of_Dalkeith / https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander,_Hereditary_Prince_of_Hohenzollern

I can add information on the page and I think it deserves to be published, at least as a stub. There are many stubs in Wikipedia with much less notability. I think it is more useful to have the page rather than not. Informing is our goal.

Thank you for your attention.

Declined G11 nominations[edit]

Hello SwisterTwister, I'm contacting you due to having to decline several of your G11 speedy deletion nominations. In two cases, there was a version of the article in history that was not spammy and could be reverted to, while in another case the article had already survived an AfD. Please take a bit more care and check for these things prior to nominating an article for deletion under G11, a nomination isn't appropriate in such cases.

16:13:02, 5 July 2016 review of submission by Bioecojess[edit]


Hi David! I looked at your profile, and I thought you might be able to help me out with a little more feedback. I know ecological restoration and onsite wastewater treatment aren't the center of the universe, but actually Biohabitats is very well-known as specialists in the field, which is growing rapidly and an important part of 21st century city planning and post-industrial development. I think I had more in the original submission about the firm's notoriety, but I took it out when it got dinged for sounding like an advertisement. So, for example, when north korea realized they had serious land use and degradation issues, they flew Biohabitats staff in for a consultation. (The staff had to sign a complete waiver for all bodily harm for the US government!) Stuff like that. It's not a big field, but Biohabitats is right on top of it. I know straight corporate pages aren't appropriate for Wikipedia without the notoriety criteria, but I think it's hard to show notoriety without sounding like bragging on the firm. Do you have any advice?

Bud Pierce[edit]

Hi,

Curious as to see why this hasn't been approved, it seems every moderator has a different threshold for approval.

I understand that Pierce hasn't been elected to the office yet, but there are others such as his primary opponent, Allen Alley, that have a wiki page but haven't even made it this far in a governor's election. How much sourcing do I need to get to meet this alternative criteria for politicians "Just being an elected local official, or an unelected candidate for political office, does not guarantee notability, although such people can still be notable if they meet the primary notability criterion of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject of the article"."?

I am happy to put in every known newspaper article about the guy and his campaign, but it seems excessive to repeat the same points over and over again with new sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Black Dogg1169 (talk • contribs) 17:23, 5 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The article now has 15 citations from credible third-party sources including The New York Times, Tech Crunch, The Wall Street Journal, Conde Nast Traveler, LA Times and Robb Report.

Walter Noetico article[edit]

Dear David,

I am a collaborator of Richard F Morris, who had been working for the past month on the article about the Artist, Walter Noetico. I thank you for your time in reviewing the page of Maestro Noetico. Sadly, I think that on your part there has been a hasty judgment and decision in considering this Artist, because it is fair that I let you know that Maestro Noetico does not desire to sell his work, even to the most important museums in the world, but this does not necessarily make him a less important artist. Quite on the contrary, it makes him more deserving.

The reason for this is that Noetico wishes to donate all of the works in his possession (circa 250 artworks) to the American Nation, and for this reason he is already in contact with philanthropist David Rockefeller Jr.

Maestro Noetico despises the mercantile speculation that is done to art and artists, and it’s incomprehensible why a serious encyclopedia, like Wikipedia, requires that the artists “sell” and great museums “buy”, in order to insert the artists into Wikipedia.

It really seems a contradiction, considering that Wikipedia is against those who want to be added to it, in order to make promotional speculation.

I think (and you, David, who appreciates the wisdom, I hope you will share my thoughts) that Wikipedia should have some different rules, to assess the artists, standards that have always been considered primary in art history.

Until not long ago, an artist was considered to be of value only if he had the support of either a philosopher, a humanist scholar, an art historian or an art critic of high reputation/value. Only these writers could historically decide on an artist's aesthetic validity.

Now, it must be considered that Walter Noetico has had the support of even four major writers and art critics known internationally as: Alexandre Cirici, being the critic who has made great Picasso and Mirò, and perhaps he did not manage to make great also Noetico, simply because he died prematurely. And only having in hand his presentation is already a title of merit and credit (which Maestro Noetico has).

Then: Gillo Dorfles - another great critic respected all over the world (and still alive, at 106), then the writer and art critic Raffaele De Grada, who was for many years the curator of the Venice Biennale, which - as you know - is the biggest art event of the world. Then, also the philosopher Silvio Ceccato.

It should also be considered that no more than 30 years ago, it was sufficient to have only one of those mentioned art critics, in order to make an artist of value and consequently encyclopaedic.

I truly hope you will agree in thinking that the value of an artist is not measured by assessing his market quotations, but it is measured by assessing his aesthetic value and cultural message – it is those values that enriche the Human Race. The things that one buys and sells, only form part of a market, and a mercenary speculation. But the true, real Art belongs only to the Spiritual sphere.

For these motives, I humbly ask you to reconsider your decision about the artist Noetico, in order to honor the diffusion of Art and Culture.

Thank you kindly, David. Jeremy --Jermy Alterman (talk) 21:45, 7 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Paul Soulellis[edit]

Hello and thank you for reviewing the new page Paul Soulellis and raising the important issue of notability.
Soulellis is a notable artist in the field of artist's books, and his medium is the printed page. The highest honor for book artists is to be collected by special artists' books collections at major museums and universities worldwide. Several such institutions collect the work of Soulellis.
Two edits have been made to the page to better demonstrate his notability.
First, a list of some of the institutions who collect his artists' books has been added. Please note that this list includes the Museum of Modern Art in NYC, one of the most significant museums in the world. Also added are Yale University and the Walker Art Center and several other important institutions.
Second, a list of art exhibitions that featured the work of Soulellis during the last three years has now been added to the article. This was originally left out to keep the article shorter but I believe it should now be added to demonstrate his notability. Please note that this list includes the Museum of Modern Art in NYC and the Gagosian Gallery, one of the most significant private commercial galleries in the world.
I hope these additions help demonstrate the notability of this artist.

Reviewer LaMona said my previous draft was overstuffed, and I am afraid that much of my subject's work is ultra-technical and way over the heads of most people who are not in graduate programs in neuroscience or hearing, so I didn't want to get super deep (nor was I able to understand much more).

Also I am holding a paper written by him giving all particulars mentioned in the article.

You are free to delete anything find non authentic and approve the rest instead of declining it. I think he is such a great person even at the age of 78 running the whole world to rejuvenate the good minds to do good to the society.

Welcome your suggestions and will be highly appreciated.

Footballers[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

I'm going through the new pages feed, and I keep seeing articles about footballers that just say their name, position and club. They're theoretically notable as per Wikipedia:WikiProject Football/Notability, but if there is no actual information on the page, isn't it correct to just redirect them to their club's page? Or is that a losing battle? --Slashme (talk) 18:28, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Slashme, with my years of experience at NPP, the footballers are in fact notable themselves if they have played for a notable league, yes. SwisterTwister talk 18:36, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

JD Busfield Article[edit]

Thank you for taking the time to review the article. Your rejection based on lack of notability because of a professional baseball player's minor league status appears to be contradicted by existing articles such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_Boldt_(baseball). If you would like, I can compile a larger list of examples where professional baseball players are considered notable based on their minor league status alone. Please let me know. 108.71.78.101 (talk) 19:03, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

108.71.78.101 It was because it seems he was only selected for the Tampa Bay Rays Draft, and perhaps not for the actual permanent team especially because he's only playing for the minor team Hudson Valley Renegades (there's no notability from playing with the Renegades). SwisterTwister talk 19:19, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for responding. If you will review the existing article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_Boldt_(baseball) you will see that Ryan Boldt is currently playing on the Hudson Valley Renegades and is in fact a teammate of JD Busfield. It does, therefore, appear that playing with the Renegades provides enough notability to allow https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_Boldt_(baseball) to be an accepted article. The same acceptance criteria should therefore be applied to the JD Busfield article. 108.71.78.101 (talk) 20:04, 8 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally please refer to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York%E2%80%93Penn_League_rosters. The players with wikipedia links on this page all play at the same minor league level as the Renegades. Specifically under the Hudson Renegades you will find https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Travis_Ott and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garrett_Whitley_(baseball) in addition to the Ryan Boldt article listed above. The https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_York%E2%80%93Penn_League_rosters article links to many, many players whose notability is purely based on their minor league status within a professional baseball organization. The JD Busfield article contains the same design and notability as these numerous examples. 108.71.78.101 (talk) 00:03, 9 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What's Up SwisterTwister[edit]

LunaTunes5 (talk) 04:46, 9 July 2016 (UTC) Hey SwisterTwister-[reply]

Thanks for reviewing my page for Craig Donohue. So, I based this page off the basis that Robert Greifeld, Duncan Niederauer Terrence Duffy and Tom Farley have Wikipedia pages-- Greifeld being the CEO of Nasdaq (an exchange with OCC), Niederuaer being the CEO of NYSE until 2014, Terrence Duffy as the Executive Chairman and President of CME Group and Tom Farley being President of NYSE (Board member of/exchange with OCC). Donohue was the CEO of CME Group and led the development and completion of CME's merger with the Chicago Board of Trade and the acquistion of the New York Mercantile Exchange and the Commodity Exchange Inc. Ah, this was huge for the financial industry! It resulted in over $20 billion in mergers and acquistions. Donohue is now the Executive Chairman of OCC, which was designated a Systemically Important Financial Market Utility and advocates on behalf of the listed options industry while ensuring that the obligations of the contracts it clears are fulfilled to essentially be the foundation for secure markets by acting as guarantor. CME and OCC are both SIFMUs, meaning their failure could threaten the US economy, so the heads of these SIFMUs should be easy to search on Google for more information (in my opinion).

Thanks, looking forward to your feedback.

Cheers, Luna

CS Afumati[edit]

It's not true, a football team gets professional when promoted to Liga III. Are a lot of teams from Liga II and Liga III that have pages on wikipedia and was not any problem ever, it's a football team, not a football player! The rule with at least one match at Liga I is for players!

Liga Profesionistă de Fotbal (Professional Football League) is a Romanian governing body that runs the Liga I, the top professional division of the Romanian football league system, and the Cupa Ligii, Romania's secondary club football tournament. But Liga II, III and Cupa Romaniei are organized by FRF, you can't tell me, or anyone that these are not professional, only because are all organized by FRF and not by their LPF's. For example, the winner of Cupa Romaniei is qualified for Europa League, so if this is not professional, how can the club participate in an UEFA competition? Liga II and Liga III clubs have also professional contracts with their players. When a club promoted from Liga IV to Liga III is affiliated to FRF, so, yes you can say that a Liga IV club is an amateur one, but not a Liga III and the less a Liga II one.

The Most Important

A football club it does not have to be professional to have a wikipedia page, are amateur clubs that have pages so I don't see why is a problem for a professional or a semi-professional club?

Ex: Whitehaven A.F.C., Blaenau Ffestiniog Amateur F.C., Ormond Amateur Football Club and these are fully amateur, CS Afumati is professional in my opinion, if you insist with the LPF thing, in the worst case I can say that is semi-professional. But I don't believe that, because all the FRF rules are made for a professional level.

Also Liga II have a governing body that is named LPF 2, but is not official.

Herve Claude article proposed deletion[edit]

Hi there,

I am a bit confused about your reason for deletion

"Still questionable for the authors notability considering WorldCat only lists 340 libraries, 25 of them is for 1 book widely held at libraries."

Does this refer to his novels, which are crime noir novels. Also he was the main news reader for the main French news TV show for 20 years. That should be notability by itself.

Walter Noetico, Artist[edit]

Dear David /SwisterTwister, I believe my colleague, Jeremy Alterman, wrote to you on 7 July. I have now added the reference to one of the works that are being in a Collection of Pala Graziussi Museum in Venice (what I had managed to find for now). In the 1980 book "Indimensional Art", there are references to certain number of works that have been sent back in the late 1970s, to Kunst Museum, Wallraf Richart Museum, Ermitage, Tate Gallery, Getty Collection, Museum of Modern Art in New York and Kuunz Collection in Vienna (all of which are very old archives and cannot be seen on the web, but details of which are mentioned in the penultimate pages of this book). I am not sure what else you wish me to do. As Jeremy Alterman said in his note to you of 7 July, Maestro Noetico since the 1970s, never wished to sell his work to any museum, but has always been mindful to leave all his artworks to American Nation, which he has already discussed with David Rockefeller Jr in correspondence with him. I shall submit again my draft, having also made some grammar improvements etc, and hope that you could exercise your discretion. Many thanks for your kind attention, David.

Thank you so much for your revision... Kuan Sanchez has played in several games, however, all I could find is a photo during a Google search of him being tackled by #15 of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. There was also a photo of a fan that had taken a photograph with him. I put a photo of him that I found from the NFLPA Facebook page at the Philadelphia Regional Former Players Conference in 2015. Maybe because it was over 10 years ago that I can't find anything else?

Request on 05:03:33, 11 July 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by EddieRHartman[edit]


You've just rejected my submission (Durreen Shahnaz) as "not notable." I have reviewed the guidelines for notability at some length. I observe:

  • Ms. Shahnaz is a TED Fellow (WP:ANYBIO)
  • Ms. Shahnaz won the Joseph P Wharton Award (WP:ANYBIO)
  • Ms. Shahnaz played a pivotal part at Nobel Peace Prize-winning Grameen bank

On a personal note - anyone playing shortstop for a second-rate team is automatically worthy of a Wikipedia page, but this inspiring woman of color is not? She is about to be the subject of the Clinton Foundation plenary this coming fall. Would you please let me know what she would have to do to be worthy, or perhaps you might kindly relook your decision?

Wealth Beyond Wall Street Suggested Deletion[edit]

Hey User:SwisterTwister I added this business "Wealth Beyond Wall Street" because of two things really:

1. The search "Wealth Beyond Wall Street" (And other longer tail searches combined with Free book etc) are searched 1800-2000 times more or less in Google every month.

2. The reason it is searched so much is, because this business is all over the radio, tv and other media (Not so much online mostly they are very "physical" sending postcards even from what I have heard from different people) this is happening all over the country it seems and people are interested in learning more about this company because of the economic times we live in.

Hence the high search volume.

I added into wikipedia so there is a neutral place for people to get information on the company because from what I see most reviews and such that are out there are mostly affiliates of theirs and this would be the one place that could be truly independent. Hopefully it won't get deleted. Clifffonte (talk) 07:37, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

There are third party reviews of Cook's novel in the New York Times, Financial Times, Daily Mail & Independent, & extensive interviews with him about his music in Repeat Fanzine & Pennyblack music, as well as a link to the major publisher Random House who publish his novel. Please could you let me know what more could be added? Thank you.

Notability[edit]

Hi SwisterTwister,

Thank you for reviewing World Branding Forum. I can see where you are coming from and I will add more references. Another thing to note is that they are a news publisher with an Alexa rank of 76,723. If they are not notable, then SF Site (2 references, Alexa 368,615); Odyssey Magazine (2 references; Alexa 9,665,835); and The Flea (3 references, Alexa 24,456,546), will all have notability issues in terms of lack of references (and perhaps audience). I do understand if this is just a normal organisation, then more references are required. But as they are also a publishing house, do you agree that the references that are there are sufficient for now? Thank you for your feedback. — SMasters (talk) 09:04, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Forever After (Paradise Lost song)[edit]

Hi, I noticed that you have deleted the aforementioned article. You write, "Still nothing suggestive of its own notability." I'm quite confused about this whole procedure. Did the article receive an earlier warning that it has to improved or risk deletion? Why such hurry to delete it? It's not that a single from a notable music band is necessarily so hopelessly obscure that there's no way it has its place on Wikipedia. Tiv kurss (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 09:36, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) @Tiv kurss: Most songs are not notable. A song needs significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources to demonstrate notability. Songs should only have an individual article when there is enough material to warrant a detailed article.{{R from song}} This version does not demonstrate that the song warrants an article. — JJMC89 (T·C) 16:33, 11 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the explanation! Got it. I just wonder how many of, say, these songs do deserve their own articles. A quick examination shows that a fair share of these articles do not contain much information about their notability. What is the criteria based on which some articles get to stay while others are deleted in a hurry, then? Tiv kurss (talk) 14:11, 13 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thoughts?[edit]

I PROD-tagged this article and it was de-prodded. Wondering if it is AfD material (see talk page discussion). I think this guy is non-notable and self-published, but he has some minor notoriety.

Request on 13:59:52, 15 July 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Kfidler0823[edit]


Not necessarily requesting a re-review as none of the information has not changed, just trying to get some clarity on what criteria he doesn't meet in terms of the notability. I found dozens upon dozen of articles and radio interviews on Michael Drapac during my research, most of which were from major (and reliable) Australian and US newspapers. Many of the articles are solely about him and don't mention him as an "after-thought" or in a "trivial" way. All of the sources that were provided were secondary sources and written by people who have zero connection with him other than interviewing him for an article. He owns Australia's only Professional Cycling team and was just named co-owner of the Cannondale-Drapac Pro Cycling team, which is currently racing in the Tour de France (how I came to know about him and start researching him in the first place - huge Cannondale fan here).

Going through all of the General Notability Guidelines, I just don't see what criteria he doesn't meet. While I only provided 14 or so references (that's all I needed to build the article), there are dozens more articles about his company, cycling teams, and successes in investment/real estate and cycling.

Any further information you can provide to clarify why he doesn't meet the Notability Guidelines would be much appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time.

Oneilius[edit]

I received notice regarding the potential deletion of Lace International Ltd because "Searches found nothing at all to suggest anything or enough for independent notability for its own article; nothing else convincing". Previously, one of this company's subsidiaries, Lace Mamba Global, had an article which was deleted on grounds that it was written in an advertising style. The grounds for deleting the previous article were not that there was insufficient "notability for its own article". Please clarify what qualifies for such notability. Also, "nothing else convincing" means what exactly? I would like to comply with Wikipedia's standards, but this message is vague and doesn't explain what is needed of a qualifying article. Noting that "you can address this concern by improving, copyediting, sourcing, renaming, or merging the page, please edit this page and do so" merely indicates that editing might help. It does not specify what qualifies or is needed in terms of additions or edits.

Hi, since you participated in an AfD discussion that involved this topic, I'm letting you know that I started a discussion at Wikipedia talk:Notability (people)#Notability in Knight's Cross Holder Articles -- to see if the issue can be dealt on a systemic basis, rather than one off AfDs.

Kyle T. Leighton[edit]

Respectfully, the subject Draft:Kyle T. Leighton (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs) is a professor, author, and notable electrical industry leader as described by Siena Heights University, and the National Association of Electrical Distributors (the governing body of the electrical industry), among other sources. The subject designed an initiative about energy efficient lighting that was adopted by an entire U.S. State. He has also published at least 13 studies nationally and internationally about lighting applications in 7 different publications, and has widely distributed work independent of those pieces by other universities such as University of California, Davis about lighting laws and lighting education. Articles about his work and career have appeared in at least 8 other different reliable sources referenced in the article. He received an international award for a video that explained lighting technology. He received 2 additional awards from 2 notable institutions (1 university) about his research and commitment to lighting technology. All of these facts including the subject are about the same thing: lighting science. Criterion #7 for WP:Academic is described as a "person to have made a substantial impact outside academia in their academic capacity" and isn't defined as a single event. Other criterion of WP:Academic like #2 are in place for what you’re implying. All of the subject’s awards and facts count towards criterion 7 because criterion 7 is a criterion that has been met with totality, or in other words, “substantial”. While the interpretation of notability is broad, everyone should be able to agree that every notable impact or notable act could be recorded differently as each WP:Academic would likely be unique. It does not mean that the subject is not a notable lighting academic because someone may not be familiar with the subject or science. Evidence, and notable institutions clearly indicate that the subject is. GNG and WP:ANYBIO #2 also applies here. Looking forward to your response.Sciencegirl5858 (talk) 16:47, 25 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sciencegirl15858, let me help out here, as WP:PROF is sort of my specialty. I don't think that guideline applies to him at all. An adjunct professor is not a professor in the usual sense, he's a person teaching a course or two in a university part-time, either as a beginner, or, in this case, as someone from an outside profession or industry. In his linked bio , he is described not as a scientist or engineer, but as a professional public relations executive,"Lauded as one of the top PR professionals in the nationwide electrical industry, he has now represented 6 energy efficient commercial brands." He did not do the studies described in the article, he wrote the press releases and articles in trade magazines. His profile in tedmagazine says "Leighton has by-lined or ghost-written several articles for industry publications". Your article is carefully ambiguous about all this, and it would not have been clear if I had not actually read the references. Your statement here, is an attempt to disguise the facts of his career in the hopes of getting an article. In my opinion this is not good faith editing.
Furthermore, your user history shows you have written nothing else, yet you are familiar with the details of our rules, familiar enough find a guideline which you can use inappropriately in an attempt to justify your article. I remind you or our policy about WP:Sockpuppettry. I also remind you of our guidelines on WP:Conflict of Interest, and our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure.

DGG He did write the studies described in the article or he wouldn't have received credit for them. Each publication cites him as the original author. The phrase "by-lined or ghostwritten several articles for industry publications" means he also authors articles and doesn't get credit for them. We don't know what those articles are. You are definitely twisting this up. There are 13 total studies cited in the article that he originally authored hence his awards and recognition for them. I'd tell you to go back and look, but you quickly deleted it before making your ignorant point and insinuating that I am a "paid editor". Might I remind you of the WP:Academic, GNG, and WP:ANYBIO.

I see I have provided 15 references from the International media including from Oman,USA,Europe and India. I have also provided link from Univ. Of Illinois where he as served as Professor. I see in you comment you mentioned that no social media lilnks, I do not see any of my links are from Social media.

Could you please reconsider? He has played with many known artists which are already there on Wikipedia.

22:04:48, 28 July 2016 review of submission by Innisfree987[edit]


Hi SwisterTwister. I'd like to touch base about the AfC draft I submitted a few weeks ago for Rembert Browne. Since you advised against resubmitting, I haven't done so; however, I have added 14 more secondary sources to the entry, as the press continues to take note of a wide variety of Browne's writing and appearances. Consequently I believe the entry would meet the consensus for notability at AfD (per AfC reviewing instructions)--and perhaps even more importantly, I believe it also meets the criteria for WP:WHYN, that we have a large, diverse selection of reliable sources necessary to ensure we're offering readers a balanced perspective on the subject.

Still I wanted to check with you before resubmitting because if you really believe it would only waste time for me to resubmit, I'll hold off: I don't want to create unconstructive work for anyone. I only ask because, even as I realize you and I might draw the line somewhat differently on borderline cases, it really is my impression this entry is one that the present community consensus would accept. Thanks in advance for your consideration and guidance. Innisfree987 (talk) 22:04, 28 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Recreated article about Jason Binn[edit]

In August last year you took the article Jason Binn to AfD: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jason Binn. The article was duly deleted. Since then it has twice been re-created and re-deleted under CSD G4 (Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion). Just over a month ago, the editor who had created the latest version posted to my talk page, objecting to the deletion, and expressing the wish to discuss it. It seems to me that the body of the article is substantially similar to the one discussed at AfD, but there are far more references, which is likely to be used as grounds for objecting to a G4 deletion. I therefore restored the article, but I am far from convinced that the new article answers the objections raised at AfD, so I am telling you in case you would like to take it to a second AfD.

Since I restored the article, the editor in question has made no attempt to initiate the discussion he said he wanted, and his only edit related to the article has been adding a photograph to it. In my opinion, the article does no more to show notability than the one discussed at AfD. It has been bombarded with large numbers of references to give the superficial impression that it is well sourced, as often happens with recreations of articles deleted for lack of evidence of notability, but most of the references do nothing or very little to indicate notability. I checked a more or less random sample of eight of the 28 references in the article. To give you an idea of the quality of the references, those eight were: one dead link; two pages not mentioning Jason Binn (one of them refers to a farm owned by "Moreton Binn", who apparently is Jason Binn's father, the other does not mention "Binn" at all); the personal page about Jason Binn on the web site of DuJour, of which he is the CEO; a page at www.etonline.com, where the only mention of Binn is a credit for a photograph on the page that he took; an announcement of launch of magazine, merely including Binn's name in a list of the owners of the magazine (and also the webstite where the announcement is made is "www.adweek.com", which may be an indication of how independent a source it is); a mere announcement of an appointment of Binn to a post; and a page about him on a website which claims to deal with "an increasingly complex marketplace" which "heightens the need for information and competitive intelligence", which to me reads very much like marketing speak for saying they provide PR.

21:02:03, 29 July 2016 review of submission by Midwestguy80[edit]


I was hoping to get some additional feedback regarding the Wikipedia entry for Peter Johnson. The entry was denied due to a lack of notability. Mr. Johnson was notoriously press-shy, preferring that the focus remained on his clients. As such, there are not an overwhelming number of articles about him. However, Johnson did represent the #1 athlete in five different sports over the course of his career (football, men's tennis, women's tennis, women's golf and boxing). The Sports Business Journal, a leading source on sports business, named Mr. Johnson the most influential agent in all of sports in 2004. Of the other nineteen sports agents who finished below Mr. Johnson that year in the agent rankings, twelve of them have individual Wikipedia entries. Multiple agents who reported to Mr. Johnson during his time at IMG have Wikipedia entries, including Tom Condon, Pat Brisson, Casey Close and Jeff Schwartz.

It is my understand that when articles such as annual "Most Powerful in Sports" list were written, Mr. Johnson asked publications to highlight agents that worked for him instead and recused himself. Given these limitations, would you be able to provide some assistance as to how I can augment Peter Johnson's entry to meet Wikipedia's notability requirements?

Hello:

I am writing because you have blocked publication of a submission to Wikipedia. Please tell me how Wikipedia published, for example, the item https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Molly, which contains substantially less information, and substantially less citation, concerning a group of musical performers, than the article that I submitted. Thank you very much


Hello, I'm writing because as of today you put a tag on the article about Glenn S. Lipson saying the page should be deleted. He is the director at Alliant University for the forensic psychologist dept. I placed that under Notable Alumni for Alliant University as well as what he works on that they put out as Alliant Spotlights and wrote a whole summary of what he does and what he researches. I also connected under Alliant his listing as the department head and his interests and research. Each of the books listed that he contributed are text books. He writes a lot of chapters in text books that are used nationally in other universities. Any specific suggestions you can make as to showing all of this without using the PR release by Alliant University under their "spotlights" would be greatly appreciated.

I was about to begin helping with other waiting psychologists pages waiting for help that needed to be added to Wikipidia but obviously I need to learn more of what is required first. It was suggesting I not use links to his research papers because they weren't in text books and he did have chapters in multiple text books used today.

I' cross posting this on the talk page for my user page so I can get other help if you are busy this weekend.

Many thanks.

proposed that this article be deleted of Glenn S. Lipson - GoogleScholar listing no citations[edit]

On the article talk page I listed 6 listings for Dr. Lipson under GoogleScholar, I outlined it there in detail, would you like me to put it here as well?

I can also replace the NY Times article with a much longer one I verified again today from the the Des Moines Register paid archives that listed almost all of Dr. Lipson testimony in the defense case of Stephen Blumberg, since that is a paid archive site of newspapers.com can I substitute that for the the othee NY Times artcle.

I also listed on Dr. Lipson's talk page the listings and concerns and what I found on World Cat as well as Google Scholar and I hope when you read it I have appropriately addressed your concerns with both categories of WP:AUTHOR and WP:PROF.

Can the two of us working together come to a consensus his article can be fixed to meet your concerns?

"Permanently collected by major art museums" is not the only means for accepting worthiness or notoriety. I would view that a contribution in one of the most prestigious fashion magazines, at least for a photographer, is also a veritable claim. Chris Floyd, another British photographer has indeed managed to get a page (well one line) in Wikipedia based it seems mainly on a contribution in the Guardian and an exhibition. His notoriety may just come from the photography of famous people but gives no concept of quality (his photos are actually not bad in my view but certainly not exceptional). I am not really sure that the criteria for a photographer´s entrance into Wikipedia is really associated with a permanent presence in a museum or similar.

Hi there - we exchanged messages earlier today - Sunday Australia time - about Pamela Schulz's entry. I've done some further research and found the following notability guideline for academics, on the Wikipedia:Notability (academics) page: "2. The person has received a highly prestigious academic award or honor at a national or international level." As the recipient of an OAM - listed here on Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_Australia, Pamela Schulz has indeed been awarded an 'honour at national or international level'. I will revisit the page now to attempt to address your concern about 'advert-like' language, but otherwise, according to Wikipedia's own guidelines, it appears that Pamela Schulz is notable. I will resubmit for review shortly. Thank you for your feedback.

18:43:15, 31 July 2016 review of submission by Musicwithoutlyrics[edit]


Hello, I am confused why having art in a major museum is a requirement for this article when there is no suggestion of the same for other artists. Under the following pages I see no mention of having works in permanent museum collections: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sama_Raena_Alshaibi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ahmad_Kanan

Abdul Rahman Katanani's work has been displayed in major art exhibitions in countries around the world, and is frequently sold in Christie's art auctions. Why is this not enough to add to wikipedia?

Musicwithoutlyrics See WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, I can easily deleted those others myself, especially if they were unreviewed (at least yours is currently being reviewed). The permanent collections would've been the best shot at accepting, because a lot of artists can be exhibited, but only a certain number can be permanently collected thus notability.

It appears that what is already in Wikipedia is a lower standard than what is being required now. In most cases, the wikipedia information that is available for pianos is far inferior than what is shown for this piano company. I ask that another reviewer step in for the future. I believe bias is apparent here.

Thank you for your review and I wish you good luck on your future reviews.

And thank you for bringing someone in to help with the bias on the bias. From an academic (and I am one), Wikipedia is pure news. It is not a peer reviewer based academic media. Having knowledge on how to create documents and using subjective interpretation is not condoning the reviewer, it is condoning the product.

Review of draft of "Johann König (art dealer)"[edit]

Hello TwisterSister. First of all, thank you very much for reviewing my draft about German art dealer Johann König. Unfortunately, you did not accept it. Of course, that is absolutely okay, for I am aware of how important it is to sustain the quality of Wikipedia. Also I considered this to be a possibility, for I am not yet quite experienced in creating new articles (I have only created one article before in the German Wikipedia). I really try to meet the standards of Wikipedia, so may I ask you what I can do to improve the article? You say that the references do not show adequately the subject's notability. König was repeatedly listed in ArtReview's Power 100 list, which lists the "most influential people in the contemporary artworld". Additionally, there has been a story about his gallery in New York Times Style Magazine and also several stories about him and interviews in influential art magazines. In 2011, he won FIAC's Prix Lafayette for "the best exhibition project presented by an emerging gallery". All this information is already part of the article. So I am wondering what else can I add to underpin König's importance? Or asked differently, why does all this not already verifies König's notability sufficiently? Indeed, with respect to an art dealer, I cannot imagine a better reference than being part of ArtReview's Power 100. There already exists a German article about König, but I haven't contributed to that one — would it be wise (or even strongly recommended) in this case to submit my draft as the English version of this German article? Thank you so much for your help and commitment!Bfait (talk) 10:42, 28 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am surprised the draft was rejected. - he was the youngest Executive Vice President Finance of SEAT. - he was the CEO of Sartorius AG in Goettingen, Germany (has its own medium long wiki article), in addition, the company is an international acclaimed pharmaceutical and laboratory equipment supplier. - From 2003 to until 2007 he was CEO of EnBW Energie Baden-Württemberg, which has its own lengthy wikipedia article and is the third-largest utilities company in Germany - From December 2014 - June 2016, Claassen was President of RCD Mallorca, a highly popular spanish football club. - he's been honored as the "most innovative entrepreneur international 2016" by Günther Oettinger

Could you please specify what more is needed? Many thanks --Dosenbier1990 (talk) 10:32, 27 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I would like to notify you that I implemented your feedback. I made some edits to show further notability. I added his membership in the supervisory board at AWD as well as his role as CEO of Solar Millennium and the fact that he accomplished the best high school grade point average in Germany. In addition, I found that the adidas CEO has his own wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herbert_Hainer and that notability was granted. The company makes 4 billion euro less revenue compared with EnBW where Utz Classen was CEO. Yet notability was not given to him.

Hello! This is my very first article and I am just learning. I picked someone who is referred to in two other Wikipedia articles, whose name comes up red saying there is no page on him yet. I researched and did an article which was rejected because he was not notable enough for inclusion, which I don't understand why since in the current articles his name is in red which seems to imply he would qualify. I deleted everything except the reference to the two Wikipedia articles. Will that work?

Aaron Chang Draft[edit]

Hello SwisterTwister,

Thank you for reviewing my article on Aaron Chang. As was mentioned in the references, he is already in an encyclopedia, so I'm not quite sure why a permanent museum exhibition is the sole defining factor for "notability". But to help add to his notability, I have added reference to a 3 month exhibit that Aaron Chang was featured in at the San Diego Natural History Museum, as well as reference to a famous magazine titled "A Day in the Life of America" that featured photos from "200 of the world's leading photojournalists". Aaron was featured alongside the following photographers that already have live wikipedia articles, but not necessarily active museum exhibits.

Ian Lloyd (photographer), Bill Pierce (photographer), Jean-Pierre Laffont, Peter Freed, George A. Tice, Larry C. Price, Graciela Iturbide, Sandra Eisert, Rich Clarkson.

I have a lot of the magazines that Aaron took the cover photo for, and can upload those as references as well if there is need for more references. Just wanted to see what was needed to get the page live before I went crazy uploading random magazines that might not be "notable" enough. He is also going to be featured in Forbes in an article that is supposed to be published in a couple weeks. Would that add enough notability as well?

Explorethatstore (talk) 18:54, 29 August 2016 (UTC) Explorethatstore[reply]

Explorethestore. Let me help out by explaining here. The general requirement is for references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements. The references seem essentially press releases or mere notice of exhibitions, or unreliable laudatory comments. The specific requirement for visual artists is eiether work in major museums of substnatial critical discussions. Neither seem to bepresent here. In addition, the article would be rejected for being advertising. Thesort of X is a great artist quotations used here are appropriate for a promotional web pae, not an encyclopedia article.

Hi SwisterTwister,

I am following up on my below note. In addition to the notable coverage I have outlined below, 18Birdies was also covered this week by a USA Today affiliate, which I have just edited to cite in the article. I want to emphasize that in the golf industry, the publications that have covered 18Birdies are notable and significant in the industry. While competitor, GolfNow, who has a Wikipedia page has been referenced in mainstream media, the coverage has been relegated to just mentions and not actual coverage of the company. I am hoping 18Birdies will be afforded the same treatment given that they have been featured in several golf industry relevant publications as well as mainstream media, which are all cited in the article.

Thanks Sbjumper21 (talk) 15:28, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Hi SwisterTwister,

I understand Wikipedia's notability guidelines but wanted to present the below argument on why our references should be considered significant, given that a competitor of ours, GolfNow, has been granted a Wikipedia page.

Within the golf industry, the biggest golf publication has under one million unique visitors a month. We've been covered and interviewed by major publications such as The Examiner (2.5 million unique visitors a month), Dujour Magazine (47K+ unique visitors a month), GolfNewsNet (55k+ unique visitors a month), ESPN Radio, CBS Radio, Golf Channel Sirius FM and Golf Channel (video). These are major hits within the golf industry, but they aren't going to be covered by the Huffington Post/Forbes, which I believe what Wikipedia is looking for. The Huffington Post also mostly covers the professional game and lacks golf technology coverage.

Lastly, I wanted to mention that a majority of the coverage that GolfNow received from major publications (Forbes/GolfWeek - no longer active/Business Insider) was about either their competition with a slight mention to GolfNow or acquisition by Comcast. They have no coverage other than that in major publications. Their Forbes piece was focused on EZLinks and had some mentions of GolfNow being a competitor.

Cool, I will do my best!
So to me it's really clear your intentions for WP are only the best, and you do a ton of work helping process backlogs in a variety of areas--I really value that (which is saying something as you and I probably are on rather different ends of the deletionist/inclusionist spectrum!) What I think may be an underlying, substantive question (which only became an interpersonal problem because it came up a bunch, understandably frustrating all) is a difference in perspective in how much outside research into the sources is necessary before reviewing drafts, sending to AfD, etc.--I know some users (yours truly included sometimes!) wish reviewers would spend more time looking for sources, while others prioritize moving through submissions quickly, which I can also understand given severity of aforementioned backlogs among other reasons. Over at the ANI Kvng usefully points out there's real policy ambiguity on e.g. WP:BEFORE there that could do with sorting out, but until policy's clarified, is there a compromise that could work for everyone for now? I do realize looking for sources isn't fun for everyone--as an alternative way of avoiding this point of friction, would it be possible, say, to shift your focus slightly so that if something seems like a lot of source-reading would be required to evaluate (as certainly, not all sources confer notability), you just leave that aside for someone else to deal with, and focus on the (too-plentiful) instances where it's really unambiguous? Like focus on the Ellers of WP and leave the Hazeldines? Given the 13,000-page backlog at NPP (!!), it seems like even limiting your focus this way would still keep you extremely busy, and allow WP to continue to benefit for the significant energy you offer the project. What would you think of that idea? Tell me if you think I'm really overlooking some aspects of this, or have mis-assessed or whatever. Honestly my hope is just that various people who are volunteering to help Wikipedia can do so in the most constructive and stress-free ways. Luckily I do think a lot of the people involved really care most about the substantive questions, and if those could be navigated, the personal stuff would melt away too. Innisfree987 (talk) 19:26, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Hey ST, I wanted to touch base again to see what you would think of one more idea--actually it was E.M.Gregory's, maybe you already saw it at the ANI. What would you think of agreeing to a certain number of AFD noms and PRODs--like maybe 10 per week for a month or so? I realize this would be a big limitation on your work, but I feel like others would take it as a really nice olive branch, give all involved a nice breather, and put everybody back on track to smooth collaboration so that going forward things would be easier for you as well as all others involved? What do you think? If you like that idea, or something along those lines, let me know--I am happy to propose it as an option for closure at the ANI if that'd be helpful.

Regarding my submission for review for Maximilian Busser and your rejection due to lack of notability. I fully appreciate that as the founder and CEO of an award-winning watch company that Busser is likely to appear more notable to myself as a Swiss-based watch journalist than to you in Texas. But I have gone through the Wikipedia definition of notability at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability and it seems to suggest that articles from respected independent publications that concentrate on the subject are what Wikipedia is looking for. I have submitted references from 

Wall Street Journal, The Telegraph newspaper from the UK, The New York Times, Forbes, The Robb Report and the South China Morning News all articles exclusively about Busser, not a quick mention. I would like clarification whether you are suggesting that these publications are not independent enough or if there is another issue I should be addressing

Underthedial, the key problem about the article now is not notability, but promotionalism. Th article is an advertisement for his watches. Try to remove adjectives, as a start.

Thanks for considering my draft of an article on the historic cartoon Han Ola og han Per [Draft:Han_Ola_og_han_Per]. I will address the issues raised that led to the rejection of the article and will attempt resubmitting. In particular, I will seek additional independent references to the work and its influence.

Also, I hope that you might also be able to help me improve this article and connect it to a larger community of Wikipedia contributors. I see from the inclusion of several categories at the foot of the Decorah Posten article. I will try to appropriately assign categories to the Han Ola og han Per article so as to better connect the article to its larger context.

Can you advise me as to how best connect this article to appropriate categories?

I am having some difficulty finding how to place this topic in the appropriate category. It clearly is an [Category:American_comic_strips|American Comic Strip] (published in Decorah, IA), but the subcategory “Foreign Language” would have to be created (my guess is there are and have been many non-English-language cartoons by American creators published in the USA).

Again, thanks for considering this article and for your work on Wikipedia.

Voicing[edit]

Sorry, I was knee-deep in User:Launchballer/My Kind of Girl when you voiced me. Is there any external IRC that can make a bit more noise when a chat window I have open receives a message?--Launchballer 23:50, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not to my knowledge, no. SwisterTwister talk 23:52, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Luise Clayborn Kaish article[edit]

Hello SwisterTwister-- Thank you for your review of the article on Luise Clayborn Kaish. I appreciate your time very much. Hopefully the arts community will continue to grow and improve the page. I will certainly make additions as I can! Wishing you all the best. Sarahcmccollum (talk) 14:38, 31 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Draft: Thony - thanks[edit]

I add ref to the 'Lavazza film festival' since it's a English page with description of the movie she got the nomination. I also made the direct link to the wiki page on 'David of Donatello for Best Female role' and fix few broken links to wiki pages. Please let me know if extra editing needs to be done. This is my first wiki article and I'm not 100% sure if it fulfills all the requirements. Srrwiki (talk) 16:53, 31 August 2016 (UTC)srrwiki[reply]

Re: Maryam Elisha[edit]

Hello Twister, Thank you for your review of my draft Maryam Elisha, which you rejected on 21 August 2016. Maryam Elisha is a very notable person in the Nigerian fashion industry. Notwithstanding, I reworked the article and improved on it. The sources provided are not junk. These are top media publications and news/fashion blog in the country. I am yet to resubmit though. I do not want it rejected again. Could you please go through it and advise me the way forward? Thank you very much. Zayzeeltd (talk) 00:41, 1 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]


Removed All The False Details and Referrals![edit]

File:File:IAF Roundels.gif Message from Indian Media
Hello SwisterTwister this is regarding the draft "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Syed_Aman_Mian_Sharma"

This is Bestern, I am a field journalist and work for a news agency, let's get staright to the point! Me and rest more than 50 people (from different parts of the world) are trying to create a Wikipedia Article for our Indian TV Star "Syed Aman Mian Sharma" AKA Miya. But however you guys are rejecting it, sometimes there are some grammar mistakes, sometimes there's a copyrighted photo, sometimes if we directly try to create the article you guys block it so even no one can ever create an article for Syed Aman Mian Sharma. But let me tell you all your objections are wrong.First things first 1)There is no Grammatical Mistake (Go and check The Draft) 2)There is no Copyrighted Picture, 3 days ago the picture of Miya was removed due to copyright. but if you go to that draft's history, it is a simple picture taken in a Make-Up Van by his Manager! (Go and check The Draft) 3)When it comes the part of notability how you guys sitting so so far from India can judge the notability of a person, You say that the sites mentioned are gossip sites but here in India there is nothing like BBC that BBC will post about Miya, The Main Big Web News Portals are BBC and TOI both post material which is highly hyped like for eg- News about Salman Khan (BOLLYWOOD ACTOR), THE Prime Minister of India, etc! 4) When we post valid Hard Copies of newspapers, you guys can't read because it is in Hindi (language)!

for eg -

https://scontent.fbom3-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/14462922_1452454401437426_1097451268135508851_n.jpg?oh=1888d8712be9618d12ee24244cbdd6ae&oe=58D49F67

https://scontent.fbom3-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/s480x480/14495447_1452454544770745_805789615843306525_n.jpg?oh=0b2ef48359305bb4769b6b94785a95cf&oe=58C5174C

We request you that please don't ruin our hard work, and please do remove that block where any editor can not directly create a page named "Syed Aman Mian Sharma" because of us we don't want to ruin the career of that young guy.

We are working together with Facebook and Instagram both Profiles will be verified and Miya will receive Blue Verified Badges this w·eekend or next. Twitter is left, we will see that next week!

Thanks a Much for Reading, it really takes effort and thanks for showing such a humongous support towards our case! Besternkhan (talk) 18:27, 8 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi SwisterTwister,

Thank you for helping me create this article. It is very helpful to get suggestions from experienced wikipedia writers. I was working on creating a article profile picture but apparently added it in the wrong context. I also saw that you said that I don't need to request for additions. Can you advise me on where to look on just making my own additions as well as how to add a headlight picture to my article? Thank you!

Greg

Re: USATestprep[edit]

Hello Swister! I want to firstly appreciate you for taking the time to review this article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:USATestprep and for your candid reviews. They were really helpful going forward. As per your recommendations, I have searched for and added new reliable third-party sources, including a dissertation written in 2012. I have not submitted though, I need your thoughts and further recommendations before doing so. Thanks. Wtoalabi (talk) 09:44, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Review of Amshan Kumar page[edit]

Thanks for taking the time to review the page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Amshan_Kumar). As you had mentioned in your comments , I have removed the docs.google.com reference and I have also added news and reference for the national award given by the government of India and have added a few more references . Request you to review it again .

Article for your Review[edit]

Hello, you recently looked at my article and said that the company didn't have significant coverage. I went back and added some good sources to the page. I was wondering if you could take another look at it. Let me know if I need to fix anything else. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:ESA_Talent_Agency

Thanks!![edit]

How are you, Sr. Swister! Thank you for moving an article Draft to the Main space. Liliya Yu (talk) 02:09, 11 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Draft: Maltz Jupiter Theatre[edit]

Hello Swister, your comment on the draft submission of Maltz Jupiter Theatre requested all reviews... There are quite a few over the theatre's history. Attached are some references.[1][2][3][4][5][6] Where would I include these in a submission? They seem too specific for mention anywhere organically. Thank you! Daveortrud1 (talk) 13:00, 27 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]


While I have your attention, I also want to ask about my draft for Invictus Security. Your comment was that my sources weighed "only as announcements or notices," which I agree with as to a couple, but four were community interest pieces in the company or major news coverage of events... The company's involvement in major world events, as evidenced by the credible references, seems to give it notoriety and notability. The sources I originally included were the most credible, unbiased, encyclopedic sources I could discover regarding the company. Are you sure they don't qualify?
