Rollback granted
Hi Crh23. After reviewing your request for rollback, I have [//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=rights&user=&page=User%3A enabled] rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! &mdash; MusikAnimal  talk  20:04, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
 * Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
 * Rollback should never be used to edit war.
 * If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
 * Use common sense.

Flawed democracy
Hey Crh23. I inserted the flawed democracy comment because other nations on the list (Indonesia for example) have been called flawed democracy on the same page as well. According to the democracy index, Turkey is less democratic than Indonesia, so I see no reason why we should name Indonesia a flawed democracy but not Turkey. This is why I made the change on N-11.

Mistake
Look, I explained why. I said that there should be more info about the season before the coaching changes, OK? Fresh Charles Sullivan (talk) 21:21, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
 * OK, Fresh Charles Sullivan, I was just worried about the amount of content being blanked. If the content is not yet encyclopedic, I'm fine with its removal. crh23 (talk) 21:23, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Yeah sorry when I did that I got confused I'm new to Wikipedia. Fresh Charles Sullivan (talk) 21:28, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
 * No problem, we all make mistakes, me included. A couple of things for the future: put an extra colon before each reply on a talk page to format correctly, and if you're posting on someone's talk page to ask about a specific edit or article, it's helpful to link the article in question. crh23 (talk) 21:30, 6 March 2015 (UTC)

Grande Torino
Hi, I am translating the Italian wikipedia article of the Grande Torino.

All football clubs have a "History of.." article and this is my attempt to condense the history section on the main Torino article which is too long. I have added the corresponding bibliography from the Italian wiki and will continually improve the writing, but as you can see, it is a big job. Danieletorino2 (talk) 12:59, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
 * You're doing a good job, but the Italian article looks a bit suspect, and I think it may be copied from a non-free source. crh23 (talk) 16:07, 18 March 2015 (UTC)


 * I agree, it is referenced in the bibliography but it reads like it came out of a book. It also needs in-text citations besides the bibliography. I will eventually address these issues. Danieletorino2 (talk) 06:18, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

you delete me edit but the link is dead and the information is in this page : http://www.freepokiesbonus.info/gambling-revenue-technical-paper-10.html i have just corrected and updated the dead link.

can you explain me the error?

you say "because it did not appear constructive" --> you prefer a 404 link it is more constructive? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fakin16 (talk • contribs) 20:25, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

 * My problem is that I don't think that source is WP:RELIABLE, as the majority of the site appears to be a games site. Having looked around for a bit, that source seems to be a mirror of www.pc.gov.au/inquiries/completed/ageing/technicalpapers/paper_10/technicalpaper10.pdf, so I'll change the ref to that, crh23 (talk) 20:28, 11 May 2015 (UTC)


 * "Gambling"
 * Gaming and betting is another major part of Australian pub culture. Legal gambling is a relatively new phenomenon in Australia, but illegal gaming has always been part of pub culture. Because ::legal betting on horse and dog races was for many years restricted to racetracks, and no off-track betting was permitted, illegal betting (usually known as "starting price" or SP bookmaking) ::proliferated. Pubs became a major venue for the collection of bets and the distribution of winnings. One Australian author has noted that SP bookmaking had become so widespread by the early ::20th century that constituted "a virtual national act of civil disobedience".
 * One of the betting games most closely associated with the Aussie pub was the coin game two-up, which was extremely popular during the 19th and earlier 20th century. It is most often ::servicemen would gather at local pubs to drink, reminisce and play two-up. Although still technically illegal, Anzac Day two-up games are now openly played in streets and laneways outside ::pubs and it has become a national institution that is now generally ignored by police.
 * Slot machines, known locally as "pokies", remain an important source of custom and revenue, although restrictive state-level licensing means that only a minority of pubs can operate them. In ::2002, over half of the $4 billion in gambling revenue collected by state governments came from pubs and clubs.[2]

why did u remove my page?
I dont understand Wikipediagod69 (talk) 15:31, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I judged the page you created to server no purpose other than to attack an individual, so I marked it for deletion as such pages are not permitted on Wikipedia as per WP:ATTACK. crh23 (talk) 16:00, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

Zoe Sugg
Hello, I changed her name to Zoë as it is her legal name–people might get confused pronouncing her name etc. The media usually spell Beyoncé's name as Beyonce but her name on Wikipedia is spelt correctly. I just do not get why people cannot correct her name. I was not trying to vandalise her page. I am really sorry if I come off as rude. Thank you for understanding. 202.160.35.131 (talk) 09:59, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
 * That's OK, the reason I reverted the edit is because the article title doesn't use the Umlaut (where Beyoncé does) and none of the sources that I looked at use the Umlaut, including her own site. If you can find a source showing that it is proper to use the Umlaut, what I'd do is include a note at the beginning to explain, rather than changing all occurrences. Thanks! crh23 (talk) 10:07, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay. I have made a mistake, then. Thank you for the clarification. I guess Zoe did not use the Umlaut on her site because you would need to know the specific combination of keys to type an ë (it would be time consuming). Thank you, again! 202.160.35.131 (talk) 10:40, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:CMOST logo.jpeg
 Thanks for uploading File:CMOST logo.jpeg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:35, 18 November 2015 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi there Crh23,

Thank you for your suggestions on how we can edit the page for Rethink Mental Illness - as suggested this is my personal account and we will use this now as the older account has been closed. I have a draft copy of the text for the page but wonder what is the best way of getting this to you so that you can review it before we put it up. Please excuse my ignorance - this is one of the first times I have used wikipedia and my governance team are asking me to make this page factually correct!

Warmest wishes,

Peerquaide (talk) 13:39, 23 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi! Because you have a conflict of interest in the area in which you wish to create the article, you need to use the Articles for creation process, in which will submit your article for review by experienced Wikipedia editors, who will review it for neutrality. Additionally, you will need to declare your conflict of interest as detailed in WP:COI. If you need any more help, you can ask me here or (for a faster and more knowledgeable response) go to WP:Teahouse. Thanks! - crh23 (talk) 14:30, 23 March 2016 (UTC) See below! edited 21:08, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Whoops, I misunderstood your request! I thought you wanted to make a new article, I now realise that you actually wanted to make changes to the existing article! Sorry! What you actually need to do is to go to the talk page of the article in question, make a new section and put request edit above your requested changes. Then someone will be along soon to review the requested edit and implement it if they find it to be satisfactory. Sorry again for giving you the wrong info! - crh23 (talk) 21:08, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Changing of the image on David Berry (actor)
I note that you reverted the image. I note also that you say the changed image does not comply with your rendering of what a lead image should be. I note that you say it is not a natural depiction of the subject. Since you've never met the actor, David Berry, I question how you could make a neutral determination as per WP: NOV guidelines as to what is a fair/natural representation of the actor, David Berry. Furthermore, the lead image is of the subject and "his wife" and not of the subject alone, and does not therefore, "illustrate the subject specifically". A submission for change will be made shortly. In good faith I hope it is approved. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Maestro dmb (talk • contribs) 08:37, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
 * The image you originally inserted wasn't terrible, but was inferior to the image it replaced (at least in my view), as it was un-natural looking to my eye. The one you have now added, however, is great: it looks natural and features only the subject of the article. It's copyright status is currently under investigation as it is not clear if the copyright holder (who I believe to be Brendon Thorne) has given permission to publish it under the stated license, but if permission is given then I consider it an indeed superior image for that article.

Help with this issue

 * Until further consensus is established, I would recommend that you either leave it or ask to revert for the time being. Anyone apart from them reverting further could be interpreted as warring, by uninformed editors (although by the letter of the law it is not).—  crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 20:44, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
 * That said, you are free to ask another editor to restore the status quo, but I'd still advise you don't. I won't be doing so, as I'm too involved to be completely neutral now. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 20:56, 15 April 2016 (UTC) I take that back, that page is under various sanctions per WP:ARBPIA, so don't repeatedly revert on it at all. Additionally, on reflection, your asking other editors to revert things could be considered inappropriate. —  crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 09:53, 17 April 2016 (UTC)

inre Articles for deletion/Code 8 (2017 film)
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.  Schmidt,  Michael Q. 16:02, 19 April 2016 (UTC)
 * of course! I have done just that. Of course, any closing admin probably would have seen that the article is substantially changed from how it was when I put my position forward, but for clarity I have struck my comment anyway. Good job re-writing the article! — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 16:22, 19 April 2016 (UTC)

R.E. Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon
Header added — crh 23  &thinsp;(Talk)

Hi There Crh23,

I have seen you making some suggestions with respect to Article name and Web redirects.

Can you please let me know how can the request to get the Institute name change be considered.

I am talking about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_of_Energy_Management_and_Research

The name of the institute is now "Great Lakes Institute of Management, Gurgaon" and the current website address is http://www.greatlakes.edu.in/gurgaon.

The erstwhile website www.iemr.in is also getting redirected to the new web address. Dsachdeva123 (talk) 09:20, 26 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Hello, . It looks to me like the Institute of Energy Management and Research has been bought by Great Lakes Institute of Management, so merely moving (what we call renaming on Wikipedia) the page could cause confusion. I'd recommend that Institute of Energy Management and Research be merged into Great Lakes Institute of Management. You can propose this by following the instructions on Proposed mergers. Thanks — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 09:32, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Crh23, Thanks for your comment about the drumfinator. I couldn't help but notice that you've created a few articles for museums. As part of a project a group of new editors created an article for a museum in Ireland. It's a draft that's been waiting for peer review for two weeks: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:National_Science_Museum_at_Maynooth Since you're the ideal peer-editor for a museum article would you mind reviewing it? Cheers, AB — Preceding unsigned comment added by AugusteBlanqui (talk • contribs) 07:56, 6 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I've had a look at your draft and fixed a few issues I saw with it (relating to tone). Since I have now contributed to it, I won't be reviewing it as I am no longer uninvolved. I would be surprised if a review denied it though, as it looks plenty notable to me. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 09:30, 6 May 2016 (UTC)

Riggwelter
Hi! It has been almost one month since Riggwelter blocked me from the Swedish Wikipedia including my own Talk-page. You enquired him about this on his Talk-page and he still hasn't answered even though he has been active. Is there any way I can go on and make an appeal or report this guy? Thanks for the help.--Butterfly1066 (talk) 21:35, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
 * My only ideas are to try either the svwiki IRC or the email address info-sv@wikimedia.org. If you email, make sure to explain your situation very clearly, providing links as necessary. It may help to focus on the talk page blocking, rather than just the block itself. I don't know how much luck you'll have, and I can't help a huge amount as svwiki is basically a different site from enwiki, so they do things differently there. —  crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 06:42, 4 May 2016 (UTC)

Adding St Ives Shopping Village to Google Maps
Could you please show me how to add this article on St Ives Shopping Village to Google maps. BugMenn (talk) 08:19, 9 May 2016 (UTC)
 * We don't control Google maps, but when I search "St. Ives Shopping Village" on Google maps I am taken here, which looks to me like it is what you are looking for. Google do use Wikipedia, but we can't control what they do with the information. Template:Coord implies that they only pay attention to coordinates in the title, but St Ives Shopping Village has those already. I suspect that they will not use the Wikipedia information, as they already have data on the place from other sources (including a floor plan). While I am not an expert with regards to this matter (and I might be wrong), I wouldn't think that anyone who doesn't work for Google would know exactly how it works. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 09:15, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

WP:NOTGALLERY
It doesn't look as if you have actually read this policy (in the last 10 years anyway). Please don't mis-cite it! Johnbod (talk) 18:39, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, I'll cite WP:IG instead. Images do serve to illustrate an article, but too many of them just clutter it up and reduce readability. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:41, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Your idea of what is "too many" is clearly out of line with the great majority of editors and readers of articles on visual art. Johnbod (talk) 18:44, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * The images in the galleries are tiny and difficult to properly look at. I had a look at some of the other articles on similar topics (1, 2, 3, 4), and that, along with the advice at WP:Gallery and the comment on The Core Contest/Entries, is why I made the choice to remove the galleries on Ancient Greek art. I boldly made the change and you reverted it so I assume it is controversial, I'll make a post on the relevant talk page to seek wider consensus. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:55, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
 * I will be doing a lot of changes to the article, certainly including increasing the sizes, and improving the selection. But there will be galleries, in fact more of them! I suggest you wait until I'm finished. Johnbod (talk) 18:58, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

 * Do you have a question for me? Do you wish to write an autobiographical article? If so, I recommend you read Autobiography, as such articles are strongly discouraged. I have left you some links on your talk page to help you get started with Wikipedia. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 19:18, 5 June 2016 (UTC)

Hello Crh23!

Haw i can chow more than 200 page at the same time, in this category.

18:10, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, could you explain what you mean a bit more? There are 685 pages in Category:Fern species, do you want to show then in your web browser all at the same time? — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:14, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * yes, I want to show all pages at the same time. --18:21, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Do you mean on the same page, or in separate tabs of the same browser? — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:24, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I mean at the same page.--18:26, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * As far as I know, there is no way of doing this without using an external tool (I don't know of any that do this) or transcluding every page in that category onto one page, which is a very bad idea as it would be a huge page and would cause significant strain on the server. What is your reason for wanting to do this? There may be another way to achieve your end goal. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 18:32, 13 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I want to try some pages with a fast method, and this is my method : I want to chow the 685 pages to try some of them. -- <strong style="font-family: Andalus; font-size: 10px; text-shadow:background:blue;color:#FFF"> yassine : <small style="font-family: Andalus; font-size: 10px; text-shadow:border:.5px #444;background:DarkOrange"> <strong style="font-family: Andalus; font-size: 10px; text-shadow:background:DarkOrange;color:#000080"> student        18:55, 13 June 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Blue Star Coloring


A tag has been placed on Blue Star Coloring 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 an organization or company, but it 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 removed 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 deleting administrator. Gbawden (talk) 07:48, 21 June 2016 (UTC)


 * I have removed the speedy deletion tag, the news sources I read show that an encyclopedic article on this company can be written, or at worst merged with adult coloring book. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  10:15, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks . : I wasn't certain when I started writing it, but I found enough independent coverage in the course of doing so to satisfy myself that it passed GNG (even if it might not be much more than a stub for a while). — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 12:07, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I will generally decline any A7 nomination that is more than namechecked in two reliable sources, which this article is. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk) <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  12:12, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * It's a little scary actually - I've been away for the morning, so had an admin with a more lax approach to CSDs (if one exists) come along, the article could have been tagged and deleted before I had even had a chance to defend it. Sort of makes you think about how rigorous the deletion criteria have to be. — crh 23   &thinsp;(Talk) 12:18, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * There are a couple of us who try and save CSDs / AfDs wherever it's practical - if I'm not about, or  might be able to look into it. I will as personal policy restore anything I delete that is not obvious vandalism, attack page or copyright violation as a draft on request, anyway. The CSD criteria is pretty well defined actually and I think admins are generally clueful, the problem is the NPP taggers, who require no qualifications whatsoever. <b style="color:#7F007F">Ritchie333</b> <sup style="color:#7F007F">(talk)  <sup style="color:#7F007F">(cont)  12:27, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the ping, Ritchie333. I certainly agree that the article did not qualify for A7. I'm not sure it would pass AfD - could be borderline - but I personally would !vote "keep". The references already in the article provide lots more information that could be used to expand it - more about apps, for example, or more background about how the company was founded. I'm not available to do that myself right now, but I would encourage Crh23 to use the existing sources to put a little more flesh on the article. --MelanieN (talk) 20:05, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * I had doubts when looking at source 3, but then read on down.... I wouldn't have deleted it, and even if I had thought it wouldn't pass A7, I'd have offered to userfy it. (I prefer to userfy rather than draftify.) I'm surprised at the tagging - Gbawden is one of the more clueful taggers IMO. This was a fairly obvious case of not being written by a company intern (why, oh why, do companies get interns to write their articles?) or one of those outsourced apparently Indian or Pakistani outfits (similar comment...). I'd also support it at AfD if it came to hey lads hey. Fill it out a bit more, as best you can. It's a business with not a very long history - but one that looks profitable. (I think I'll get in touch with a young artist that's done some work for me to suggest she has a go in that line...) Peridon (talk) 21:20, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
