Proposed deletion of Tressie McMillan Cottom


The article Tressie McMillan Cottom has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Copy of Draft:Tressie McMilla Cottom that hs been declined due to lack of independent references to establish notabiltiy. It is an abuse of the draft system to ignore it and just copy into mainspace when the article is declined. You are free to continue editing the draft to get it into an acceptable state."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. noq (talk) 11:02, 25 July 2018 (UTC)

Katharina Paulus
Hi there, just letting you know I removed a couple of the categories you added to the Katharina Paulus article because they are not categories that go in mainspace articles. I'm referring to the ones about importance level, and needing an infobox. They are maintenance categories, and I left an edit summary saying I would move the infobox one to the talk page, but when I looked at talk page, I'm not sure how to go about doing that. It's not added directly like category in article. It looks like it needs the wikiproject women template, and can be added to the template but I'm really not sure. I shouldn't have said I would move it before actually checking first, but I figured it would be added the same, so I'm sorry I can't fix the problem, but leaving a maintenance category in the article is not the solution.

Hanne Nielsen
Hi Cbratbyrudd. Thanks for your work on Hanne Nielsen -- I've merged it into Havarti (somewhat hastily -- thought I was going from the back of the queue), as it doesn't look like there's a significant amount of RS biographical info available on her (Hanne Nielsen is also brief). If there is only going to be a max of a para or so, I believe that she should continue to be redirected and covered at Havarti. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 21:47, 27 July 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Nia Wilson


A tag has been placed on Nia Wilson requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a real person or group of people that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. John from Idegon (talk) 02:52, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

I suggest you move Nia Wilson into draft space before it gets speedied. I see Nia Wilson was rejected twice recently by AFC. Move it to draft space, if she doesn't get enough stand alone long term coverage in the next few weeks, you should merge it into an existing article as stated by another editor. I appreciate the hard work your doing. JC7V -constructive zone  04:28, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Your contributed article, Murder of Nia Wilson


Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Murder of Nia Wilson. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Nia Wilson. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Nia Wilson. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. ~Hydronium~Hydroxide~(Talk)~ 05:46, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

Please stop reverting this article to add her in parent categories. She is ALREADY IN THESE CATEGORIES. The category Category:African-American women writers is a SUBSET of parent categories Category:Writers, Category:Women writers, and Category:American writers. The same way Category:1955 births is a subset of Category:1950s births, Category:20th-century births and Category:Births. Do you see what I am saying? There is a reason we create specific categories.

 * If you have a problem with how Wikipedia categorizes then that is truly your issue. Do not edit against policy to make a point. You are not accomplishing anything with your protest categorization and you are certainly not improving Wikipedia. Spend your time doing something constructive like creating new biographies and adding sources to those at risk of being deleted. You're going to get yourself banned very quickly. <b style="color: #0066cc;">—Мандичка</b><b style="color: #6600cc;">YO</b> 😜 22:48, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Thank you for inviting me to the conversation, cbratbyrudd. Hello, . It is true that subcategories are parts of categories, but there is an agreement on EN-wiki that: "Categorization by ethnicity, gender, religion, sexuality, or disability can be the subject of controversy"; see WP:GHETTO. To this point, if an article is placed in a subcat such as, the article should also be in the parent cat, . Hope this helps. --Rosiestep (talk) 01:01, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
 * – Please note that Category:African-American women writers is declared a non-diffusing subcategory of Category:American writers, meaning that it includes writers that can also be found in the parent category. --Lambiam 08:54, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note: If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.also its not good form to copy another user's sig <em style="font-family:Rubik;color:Lollipop">JC7V <em style="font-family:Ebrima;color:Purple">-constructive zone  17:20, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
 * 1) Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
 * 2) Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.


 * to Cbr, I suggest you use the talk page of the Wikiproject for women's writers to come up with a consensus about this. It is a big issue.

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Ebony Flowers, you may be blocked from editing. I have explained to you directly why this is not correct. Please learn about how WP:Categories work and stop your disruptive editing.
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

to Cbratbyrudd, Some ways people deal with edit disputes are: Article talk page, if that doesn't work there is always Dispute Resolution, there is also edit warring noticeboards. <em style="font-family:Rubik;color:Lollipop">JC7V <em style="font-family:Ebrima;color:Purple">-constructive zone  22:55, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I strongly suggest you drop the stick with the editor you are warring against right now and not edit war them. Use the talk page of the article in question to seek consensus, seek out other editors opinions who belong to WikiProject Women's writers to discuss your purpose changes. Don't personally attack the warring editor (even if you are right). Rosie was a Wikimedia person of the year a few years ago and a project member of for Women's Writers, she can help you in your edit warring issue.<em style="font-family:Rubik;color:Lollipop">JC7V <em style="font-family:Ebrima;color:Purple">-constructive zone  23:17, 4 August 2018 (UTC)

WiR Monthly achievements
Hi there, Cbratbyrudd, and thanks for adding so many new biographies to our Monthly achievements listings. As you may have noticed, I've been through several of them, adding categories and Defaultsort. Defaultsort allows you to set a person's family name as the basis for category sorting, etc. You'll find it in the Wiki markup options at the bottom of pages in edit mode. Maybe you could also add a WiR tag such as  to your article talk pages. This will ensure that any pages tagged for deletion will be displayed on the WiR main page. I've added it on Talk:Amanda Daflos. Keep up the good work. You are doing very well.--Ipigott (talk) 10:02, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Hi Cbratbyrudd, I've been doing DYKs for awhile. You can ask me for help or to review one for you once you get into it. I'm a Women in Red editor. I also just did some work on your Pat North Ommert article to try to help improve it. I'm having a tough time finding additional sources in Internet searches. I have access to newspapers.com and the newspapers archive sites through Wikipedia so I'll try searching there next. I think she may be notable just due to the Hall of Fame induction, though. Also, you should sign your comments at the end. Use four tildas to do so. You can do it manually, but there's actually a button underneath this editing window that will do it when you click it. I do mostly rodeo editing but have been known to do other things do. Happy Trails! <i style="color:#800000;">dawnleelynn</i>(talk) 23:43, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Brittany Ashley
Hello, Cbratbyrudd,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Brittany Ashley should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Brittany Ashley.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

Natureium (talk) 01:13, 21 August 2018 (UTC)

Suggestion for you
Hey Cbratbyrudd, I found a source from Variety for your Brittany Ashley article (google the term 'why i left buzzfeed","brittany"). You can also use this reliable source search engine to help you in the future with your articles. for that reliable source search enginge, you type your article subject into the box and then you click the blue button (with the magnfying glass on it) and you'll be able to find reliable sources for whatever subject you want.

Notable poetry
The fact that a performance of a poem is available at Button Poetry does not in-and-of-itself make that poem notable. The inclusion of that in multiple bios (Imani Cezanne, Desireé Dallagiacomo, Javon Johnson (poet)) feels very promotional for Button Poetry. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 20:40, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi power~enwiki thanks for your message. I do not have any connection to Button Poetry other than being a MFA in Creative Writing and a self-proclaimed poetry nerd. Everything is cited. I am merely creating poetry articles for notable poets/poetry organizations whose work I have come across in my own studies. Most of these folks are quite famous in the poetry world (it's honestly a little shocking they don't already have pages) cbratbyrudd 20:40, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Not A Cult


A tag has been placed on Not A Cult requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Toddst1 (talk) 19:06, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

August 2018
Your recent editing history at Not A Cult shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Toddst1 (talk) 19:09, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

Hi Toddst1 thanks for your comment--not trying to edit war at all. The revert requested some more sourcing, I added the sourcing per the request. Please see the editing history. cbratbyrudd1 (cbratbyrudd) 19:09, 24 August 2018 (UTC)

Skyler Cooper
I note you use the singular they in Skyler Cooper. While some genderqueer persons prefer it, it seems a bit clunky in this article, and seems contrary to how the subject is written about and self identifies: most of this sources use "her", while Cooper notes he has used both "he" and "she" pronouns in the past, but now identifies as "he" and with masculine pronouns. Thus, unless there is compelling reason not to, per MOS:GENDERID masculine pronouns should be used as consistently as possible, avoiding the potential grammatical confusion of "they", "zhe", etc. What do you think? --Animalparty! (talk) 05:47, 27 August 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi --Animalparty! thank you so much for this note! I was struggling while writing for this exact reason. My first idea was to maybe just avoid the pronoun and specifically use the name? It was unclear to me which pronoun Cooper uses and so I went with "they" due to the variant pronouns in the articles. I would appreciate any feedback. I didn't want to misgender so went for neutral. cbratbyrudd (talk) 05:47, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
 * For expert advice and style guidance, you might solicit opinions at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies. Unless there is more recent evidence to the contrary, I think "he/him" would be acceptable, with a simple in-text note explaining alternate or previous usages for clarity and context. One issue might involve deprecated pronouns in direct quotes: in this case a stylistic fix like Smith wrote that "[his] performance was superb" might be used if the original quote used "her". --Animalparty!

Ways to improve Juanita Tomayo Lott
Hi, I'm Rosguill. Cbratbyrudd, thanks for creating Juanita Tomayo Lott!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. I've marked it as reviewed so that the page gets indexed by search engines, but I've also identified some things that could be improved about the article. In particular, the article's lead needs to be rewritten, and it needs more citations to secondary-sources mentioning Lott. You may also want to consider adding a section listing Lott's notable published works.

Thanks for helping improve wikipedia!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Invitation to participate in study
Hello,

I am E. Whittaker, I am working with Wikimedia’s Scoring Team to create a labeled dataset, and potentially a tool, to help editors deal with incivility when they encounter it on talk pages. A full write-up of the study can be found here: m:Research:Civil_Behavior_Interviews. We are currently recruiting editors to be interviewed about their experiences with incivility on talk pages. Would you be interested in being interviewed? I am contacting you because of your involvement in Wikipedia’s Women in Red project. The interviews should take ~1 hour, and will be conducted over BlueJeans (which does allow interviews to be recorded). If, so, please email me at ewhit@umich.edu in order to schedule an interview.

Ways to improve Sophia Hall
Hi, I'm SkyGazer 512. Cbratbyrudd, thanks for creating Sophia Hall!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. For a statement like "she ran for retention in 2016," particularly for a BLP, it's better to have a more reliable source than a wiki that can be edited by anyone. Also, it would be nice if the article could be placed in some categories. Besides that, it's looking really great!

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Citations in lists of publications
Hi Cbratbyrudd, thanks for all the work you're doing. I came across your article Rebecca Nagle. One quick suggestion: in the list of publications, it might be better to use e.g. cite book directly rather than to list the work and add a reference at the end. It makes the links and detail that little bit more accessible and it has the handy side-effect of not making the list of references look so primary. I got the same advice about an article I wrote a while back and I think was an improvement. All the best, › Mortee  talk 21:22, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

AfroCine: The Months of African Cinema Continues….
Greetings!

Thank you very much for signing up to participate in the Months of African Cinema global contest/edit-a-thon, and thank you for your contributions so far.

It is already the middle of the contest and a lot have been achieved already! We have been able to get over 200 articles created in over seven (7) languages! The figures soars to up to a thousand, if Wikidata entries are included. Furthermore, there have been about 5 in-person gatherings of Wikipedians in different countries across the world to create articles about African(a) cinema!

We are very excited about what has been achieved so far, but your contributions are still needed to further exceed all expectations! Let’s create more articles before the end of this contest, which is this November!!!


 * Article suggestions can be found here. You can also add to this list.
 * Some notable reliable sources for African cinema can be found here. Again, this list needs expansion.
 * Interested in Wikidata translation? check out the Occupation Drive, which is being led by Wiki Loves Women, in support of the contest and the project!
 * Please remember to list articles you have created or improved in the Article Achievements section of the contest page, so that they can be easily tracked.

Thank you once again for being part of this global event!

Kind regards.--Jamie Tubers (talk) 22:50, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

Deletion discussion about Matias Viegener
Hello, Cbratbyrudd,

I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Matias Viegener should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/Matias Viegener.

If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

Thanks,

I just noticed that the article you created at Mary Kees is superfluous, as it duplicated the material in the much larger article Mary Dixon Kies. it seems like a redirect from Mary Kees to Mary Dixon Kies is in oreder; do you know how to do that?ThatMontrealIP (talk) 13:40, 16 December 2018 (UTC)
 * FYI I figured out how to do it and placed the redirect.ThatMontrealIP (talk) 13:45, 16 December 2018 (UTC)

Muriel Leung
I see you are adding many references to Muriel Leung, but the article needs to show independent, secondary coverage of the type that would demonstrate a pass of WP:AUTHOR or WP:GNG. Announcements of her readings, or her student bio, don't actually count toward establishing notability. When I tagged the article for notability I also opened a discussion on the article talk page, so I hope that you are willing to work collaboratively there. Bakazaka (talk) 18:38, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Hi Bakazaka (talk), Thanks for your message! I am currently working on it and trying to add sources, seems like we were maybe editing at the same time and some things got deleted? I added two more interviews with the author and am adding more as we speak. Any suggestions are welcome! thanks for your help. Cbratbyrudd (talk) 18:40, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Daniel Andrew Gross and Steven Goldstein


The article Daniel Andrew Gross and Steven Goldstein has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "WP:1E/WP:BIO1E the marriage itself is not notable, the notable event is the change in the column title and practices of the New York Times, and that isn't notable outside of the New York Times, so a low notability event."

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

This is done as a courtesy; I did not propose the deletion of the aforementioned article. &mdash;Javert2113 (Siarad.&#124;&#164;) 03:53, 14 April 2019 (UTC)

Something to keep in mind when you create new articles
Thank you for your work on the Koko Da Doll article!

However, the way that you attempted to add it to the Women in Red and LGBT Studies WikiProjects (there is no "LGBT" project, all LGBT-related articles just go under LGBT Studies) did not successfully alert either project. Next time you create an article, you can add it to the LGBT and WiR projects by:

1: Clicking "Edit source" in the top right corner of the article's talk page

2: Placing the text or  at the top of the talk page. Do not sign this by adding four tildes in a row. QuietCicada (talk) 00:11, 12 August 2023 (UTC)
