Mordad
Why are you watching my account? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Docolusanya (talk • contribs) 13:49, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
 * I'm not. I watch User:Cyberbot I/AfD report, which lists problems relating to the WP:AFD process, including pages that have a deletion template with no accompanying discussion page, as was the case at Mordad. The message I left on your talk page explains the issue. clpo13(talk) 16:18, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer
Hello Clpo13. Your account has been added to the " " user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk. The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 21:48, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
 * You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
 * Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
 * Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.

Hi. Thanks for the messages. I was aware of that  already  but  it's good to  know that  someone else is also on the ball. I've issued a short block. I've given you the NPR user right (see above) which  might  help  your detective work, especially  catching  socks and block evaders. If you have time, please consider lending a hand with the immense backlog. Cheers. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 21:53, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Tech News: 2016-51
 Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.

Tech News
 * Because of the holidays the next issue of Tech News will be sent out on 9 January 2017.
 * The writers of the technical newsletter are asking for your opinion. Did you get the information you wanted this year? Did we miss important technical news in 2016? What kind of information was too late? Please tell us! You can write in your language. Thank you!

Recent changes
 * Administrators and translation administrators can now use Special:PageLanguage on wikis with the Translate extension. This means you can say what language a page is in. The Translate extension will use that language as the source language when you translate. Previously this was always the wiki's default language. This was usually English.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Wikis connected to Wikidata can now use the parser function  to get formatted data. You can also use   to get raw data. You can see the difference between the two statements. There are also similar new functions in Lua.

Problems
 * Some abuse filters for uploaded files have not worked as they should. We don't know exactly which filters didn't work yet. This means some files that filters should have prevented from being uploaded were uploaded to the wikis. MediaWiki.org and Testwiki have been affected since 13 October. Commons and Meta have been affected since 17 October. Other wikis have been affected since 17 November.

Changes this week
 * There is no new MediaWiki version this week. There will be no new MediaWiki version next week either.

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg The next meeting with the VisualEditor team will be on 3 January at 20:00 (UTC). During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. See how to join.

Future changes
 * The 2016 Community Wishlist Survey is done. It decides what the Community Tech team will work on during 2017. You can see the results.

crime in nyc
Clpo13 thank you for being courteous and sticking to wikipedias top 3 pillars, more than can be said for previous contacts I've had. Bottom line there are many non-existent links and sources in this and related articles that espouse a point of view that is simply factually incorrect. Top example the following completely inaccurate line is on numerous wikipedia pages: "Under Dinkins's Safe Streets, Safe Cities program, crime in New York City decreased more dramatically and more rapidly, both in terms of actual numbers and percentage, than at any time in modern New York City history". The sources cited for this in various wikipedia articles range from non-existent or broken links to a letter to the editor and in several cases Dinkins own auto-biography! (which by the way is totally self serving and as far as his term as mayor complete fantasy.) Plus as wikipedia policy states it cannot be the primary source for an article, in fact it is the only source. The fact is the four highest yearly murder totals in NYC history were the 4 years of Dinkins term 1990-1993. To say that the mayor who presided over the 4 most deadly years in NYC history cut crime more rapidly than any time in NYC history is the opposite of the truth and unfitting for wikipedia, I will try harder to take your suggestions, but let's get this corrected for the good of all. Please let me know any suggestions before I proceed, here are references there are many more. Aceruss (talk) 00:36, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Jill Stein
The topic I removed has very little to do with Jill Stein's political positions. She was running for president herself. That section seems to only be there to scapegoat her for Clinton's loss. If not, we should add similar sections to everybody on who had an opinion on who should be president. You call my removal unconstructive, but the topic has no reason to be there. It isn't constructive. 6,000+ characters on comments she has made regarding the presidency isn't constructive to exist. Seems like another hit piece to me. If not, I'd advise adding similar topics to Gary Johnson and other third parties HRC Supporters wrongfully blame for her loss. Chandler (talk) 06:22, 23 December 2016 (UTC)

Response on Schneider CA-1 question on desk
Greetings,

I had wrote you earlier, but I was busy. Thank you for your response on the desk, but that is not what I was asking. Offered data is too general. Article on Wikipedia specifies when they entered in service, not when they got to the fort, and I have read it a lot of times before the question. The order of battle covers all this war (it was very long), but I was asking what forces were garrisoned on the fort. I don't know where to get that information. I thought some kind of academic expert on that war could help me and provide more data than the currently posted.

Anyway, thanks to answer my question.

Good luck,

Dyatlov Pass
Hi, regarding the Dyatlov Pass contribution, it seems you've rejected it because it has no reliable source? The fireball (ball lightning) theory was believed to be the best explanation by Lev Ivanov the Police Investigator of the Dyatlov incident. N.B. imo the wikipedia page is highly deficient in not stating ball lightning within the explanation section. Although it gets a mention later on.

My theory adds cold weather lightning strikes as an additional cause plus a suggested timeline. This is possibly an original contribution for the DPI for which no reliable source may exist.

Regards Nigel Evans NigelEvans (talk) 18:15, 1 February 2017 (UTC)
 * yes, the lack of a reliable source is a big issue. One very important policy of Wikipedia is verifiability, which means that readers should be able to check for themselves where information on Wikipedia comes from. Reliable sources are preferred for various reasons (follow the link for more info on that). If you can find and include a source that supports your statements, feel free to add more to the article. clpo13(talk) 23:36, 1 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi thanks for the response, yes i can appreciate that it's a big issue. I think that a subject like dyatlov does challenge this paradigm. With mysteries such as this no one will ever know for sure what happened and in that sense all explanations are equal, everything is conjecture. So to rule something in or out depending on it being credibly published elsewhere does seem to be an unfortunate halfway house that in this case promotes nonsense like teleportation of mutants (movie - Devils Pass) and rejects a credible suggestion {imo :) which supports and enhances the apparent opinion of the official investigator which in itself cannot be verified other than it is claimed by a journalist to be the result of an interview with him late in his life, the Soviet authorities supposedly suppressing his opinion in 1959. Imo if you accept a heading such as "Explanations" then this list has to be comprehensive or you are not properly representing the matter, corrupting the authority of the site. There are dozens of explanations for this incident on the internet and wikipedia is only stating a small subset of them that randomly satisfy it's rules. This is not knowledge....

New Page Review - newsletter No.2
Hello , We now have New Page Reviewers! Most of us requested the user right at PERM, expressing a wish to be able to do something about the huge backlog, but the chart on the right does not demonstrate any changes to the pre-user-right levels of October. The backlog is still steadily growing at a rate of 150 a day or 4,650 a month. Only 20 reviews a day by each reviewer over the next few days would bring the backlog down to a managable level and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work! It didn't work in time to relax for the Xmas/New Year holidays. Let's see if we can achieve our goal before Easter, otherwise by Thanksgiving it will be closer to. Remember that we are the only guardians of quality of new articles, we alone have to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged by non-Reviewer patrollers and that new authors are not being bitten. This is even more important and extra vigilance is required considering Orangemoody,  and
 * A HUGE backlog
 * Second set of eyes

March Madness 2017
G'day all, please be advised that throughout March 2017 the Military history Wikiproject is running its March Madness drive. This is a backlog drive that is focused on several key areas:


 * tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
 * updating the project's currently listed A-class articles to ensure their ongoing compliance with the listed criteria
 * creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various task force pages or other lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the military history scope will be considered eligible. More information can be found here for those that are interested, and members can sign up as participants at that page also.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 March and runs until 23:59 UTC on 31 March 2017, so please sign up now.

For the Milhist co-ordinators. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) & MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 07:24, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

What I did wasn't "vandalism"
The page I "edited" clearly referenced the wrong Anne Hathaway.

I merely thought someone may have made a mistake, so I tried to revert it back to the correct listing.

That's all.

I wouldn't call that vandalism, would you? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.125.16.107 (talk) 02:15, 25 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi There, sorry about that, thanks for helping and this article also needs help on the deletion discussion page
Hi there! I didn't realize the information was archived elsewhere now, thanks for helping me see that. I will apologize to the other editor on his page as well. I ask you for your help, as the Nikki Phoenix article that has been placed up many months ago by other editors on Wikipedia, (andhas passed review as meeting Notability under WP:PORNBIO; which it does in many areas,) and has been subsequently vandalized, and then nominated for deletion by the same editor. Numerous editors have come to it's defense, clearly citing Notability across a broad spectrum, and I would ask you to go to the deletion discussion page, read the history check the links for yourself to see that she in fact over-qualifies in 2 (not just 1) areas for Notability under WP:PORNBIO. Please cast a Vote to KEEP the article so that it can continue to be worked on and grow, and so that it will not be come and example of how to Vandalize and the be able to Delete a page that many editors worked hard on. Any help you can lend would be greatly appreciated!

Wikipedia and Copyright and the "Black Supremacy" article
Hello Clpo13.

I'm writing in response to your message to me on my talk page regarding Wikipedia and Copyright as pertains to my recent edits on the "Black Supremacy" article.

I actually appreciate your remarks inasmuch as I actually was unaware of the policies pertaining to reproduction of material in cited sources.

If I understand you correctly, one should not simply copy paste but reword the information (or else presumably place the text in quotation marks, presuming the amount of text quoted is reasonably short as per fair use concerns etc.).

I have no problem with that whatsoever and appreciate being so informed.

While I have your attention, may I ask whether it is also perfectly fine to have restored the "Nation of Islam" header?

It is supported by a citation I inserted indicating that the SPLC does indeed describe the Nation of Islam as Black Supremacist.

Thank you so much for your input!

Extremely helpful information I otherwise would not have known. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CannotFindAName (talk • contribs) 00:01, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
 * You're very welcome. Yes, it's important that we respect the copyright of other people and organizations. Information can only be directly copied from a source if it's freely licensed or public domain (see WP:COMPLIC), though even then, attribution to the original author may be required per WP:FREECOPYING. Additionally, small amounts of non-free text can be quoted with attribution per MOS:QUOTE. I have no issue with adding that the SPLC describes NOI as black supremacist if it's supported by a source. clpo13(talk) 15:44, 12 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your response. I hope I am following the correct protocol responding to your reply here on your page; it isn't entirely clear where one is supposed to respond to a response (here or on my own talk page linking to you so that you are notified?).


 * I have some follow up questions and remarks.


 * One regards citing an SPLC article which describes the Nation of Islam as black supremacist. I found an SPLC article which describes the NOI as black supremacist, whereupon I edited the list of organizations described by the SPLC as black supremacist by restored the header (The Nation of Islam), writing below it "The SPLC describes the Nation of Islam as black supremacist". I appended a citation to that sentence which links to an SPLC article about the Nation of Islam which describes it as back supremacist (https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2011/06/07/black-supremacist-nation-islam-pushes-white-dominated-scientology).


 * This was reverted by an editor who claimed that the fact that the article's headline describes the NOI as black supremacist is not sufficient evidence that the SPLC describes the NOI as black supremacist, which I do not think is a valid objection. It is perfectly clear that the SPLC describes the NOI as black supremacist; I don't see why the fact that it's in the article's headline in anyway delegitimizes the citation. I would very much appreciate your input here.


 * Furthermore, after following your instructions and adding the information regarding Farrakhan's restoration of the teachings of the NOI using my own words rather than copying the text from the citation, it was reverted by editor Malik Shabazz with the following comment:


 * "I don't know what you're smoking, CannotFindAName, but source #7 says simply "Minister Louis Farrakhan, who broke with Mohammed over the change, separately revived the old Nation of Islam." Nothing about Farrakhan's ideology in the source, which (as I wrote) is an obituary of Mohammed and has no reason to discuss Farrakhan."


 * Now for one thing, the "I don't know what you're smoking" remark is clearly inappropriate for any editor, much less one with higher editorial privileges such as Mr. Shabazz.


 * Furthermore, it is abundantly clear in the context of the article cited (http://www.nbcnews.com/id/26630405/ns/us_news-faith/t/former-nation-islam-leader-dies) that the following excerpt:


 * "Minister Louis Farrakhan, who broke with Mohammed over the change, separately revived the old Nation of Islam"


 * means that he restored the teachings described as black supremacist.


 * Moreover, the existing description of the article cited is extremely misleading, and rather obviously attempts to suggest that the cited article claims that the NOI was no longer black supremacist after 1975, when in fact the cited article only stated that the NOI promoted black supremacy while under the leadership of Elijah Mohammed, that this ideology was abandoned when Elijah Muhammad's son was named leader of the organization after his father's death in 1975, and that Farrakhan subsequently reestablished the NOI and restored the Elijah Mohammed era teachings.


 * I think that the aforementioned Nation of Islam header with the SPLC citation should be allowed to be restored, as well as my description of Farrakhan's restoration of the teachings of Elijah Muhammed described as black supremacist in the cited article.


 * I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts about this.


 * Thanks again!

Hi Clpo13. I've been looking for suitable editors to nominate for adminship and think you'd make a good candidate! From looking at your contribution history you've been around for long enough, have contributed to a variety of areas, have a great AfD and FfD record, good CSD log, some content creation history, and are generally friendly and productive. Your ORCP poll was generally positive and most users seemed to say 'come back later'; I think later is now and you stand a good chance! You could do a lot of good with the administrator toolset and I would be happy to nominate you. What are your thoughts? Sam Walton (talk) 23:26, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

 * No rush at all - happy to take time to make sure answers are good and there's nothing lurking that might pop up during the process. I've started User:Samwalton9/RfA/Clpo13 to give you a chance to draft your question answers. I'll take a more thorough look through your contribs and might have some questions for you before we go live, and I'll give you some broad feedback on your answers :) I'll also see what I can do about the possibility of a co-nomination.

 * When you edit you can switch between the visual editor and the wikitext editor. This works if the wiki you edit has the visual editor. The menu will now say  and   instead of   and  . This is because it was confusing when the menu said you could switch to the editor you were already using.
 * Octicons-sync.svg The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 9 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 10 May. It will be on all wikis from 11 May (calendar).

Meetings
 * Octicons-sync.svg You can join the next meeting with the VisualEditor team. During the meeting, you can tell developers which bugs you think are the most important. The meeting will be on 9 May at 19:00 (UTC). See how to join.

Future changes
 * You will be able to get a notification when a page you created is connected to a Wikidata item. This will come to Wikivoyage on 9 May. If there are no problems it will come to most Wikipedias on 30 May. It will come to other projects and English, French and German Wikipedia later in the summer. It will be opt-in for existing users and opt-out for new users.
 * Octicons-tools.svg Markup that looks like code for language variants might need to be fixed. If  is used in transclusions or web addresses it has to be escaped appropriately. You can use   for transclusions and   in web addresses. A transclusion could for example be when you use   in a template:  . This is because of some code fixes to the preprocessor and affects all wikis.

A cookie for you!

 * Thank you very much, ! clpo13(talk) 15:44, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * You're welcome! Doesn't the RfA close in a few minutes? --TheSandDoctor (talk) 15:46, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Yep, it's scheduled to close in 10 minutes. clpo13(talk) 15:47, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I did add a comment to the RfA but then edit conflict with the person closing it so I reverted the edit. Despite reverting the edit, my congratulations still stands. Who knew getting a mop is so time consuming? I just go to the closet and get one! (Disclaimer: This is my attempt at a little bit of humour, not being serious in last 2 sentences.) --TheSandDoctor (talk) 16:04, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Mops from the closet are easy to get, but unfortunately don't have special powers. Thanks for the support once again! clpo13(talk) 16:09, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Very true! Thanks for the chuckle and you are certainly more than welcome! You glad the stress of the RfA is over? --TheSandDoctor (talk) 16:24, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Definitely glad it's over, though it went very well compared to how I was worried it might. Still, I appreciate the concerns that some people brought up and I'll keep improving. clpo13(talk) 16:28, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * That's the spirit! I think everyone who goes through an RfA fears the worst - I know I certainly would (haha) - at least at the beginning (for successful ones) --TheSandDoctor (talk) 16:52, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

Watergate scandal
Hi, I saw your edit on Watergate scandal recently (it is in my watchlist). I think our anon sneaky user created an account. In any case, the IP user has stopped editing, but another user by the name "Uusername678" is making edits with same style. As it is a quarter past three of the night here, i should try to sleep. Would you please keep an eye on the article for a while? I will appreciate it a lot.

PS: when did you get the admin user-right? It is going to be a bumpy ride as an admin lol. Best of luck :-) — <span style="font-family: monospace, monospace;">usernamekiran (talk)  21:48, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I just got the bit this morning. Don't worry, I'll keep close watch on the article. clpo13(talk) 21:50, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

Hey, Clpo13!
I made the Bijuu Mike wikipedia artictle which you deleted. Can you help me to understand why you removed it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.254.154.216 (talk) 10:38, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * I suspect he deleted it for the same reason I would have done - Wikipedia is not the place for kids to chit chat about their YouTube channels. (Expect messages like this to be a regular feature on your talk page from now on, Clpo13 :-D) <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  10:54, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * If you have not already done so, I suggest you make a FAQ of some sort about "Why I deleted your page". That way, you can just point to that in, for example, your editnotice.  —   Gestrid  ( talk ) 14:22, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the tip, . I'll put something together since, as Ritchie said, I'll bet getting a lot of this. clpo13(talk) 16:45, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
