Speedy deletion nomination of 2017 purges in the United States


A tag has been placed on 2017 purges in the United States requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about something invented/coined/discovered by the article's creator or someone they know personally, and it does not 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.

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".

Deletion discussion about Control-left
Hello, Democratic Backsliding,

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

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,

Notice of noticeboard discussion
There is currently a discussion at Administrators' noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

Hi, I'm Jethro, an administrator. Some concerns have been brought up about your creation of articles such as Control-left and Beta uprising. Topics that are covered as articles here must satisfy some requirements. These include: You've been notified that many articles you've created have violated one of these guidelines (and others), so I'm going to ask you to stop creating articles that violate these expectations. I encourage you to consider creating working on articles outside of politics. I JethroBT drop me a line 00:58, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
 * 1) Articles cannot represent original research, meaning that personal observations or research on this topic can't be used as article content. It seems that some the articles you've created are novel terms that do not appear to be recognized or have use in credible sources.
 * 2) Related to original research, you must avoid drawing novel conclusions based on claims made in reliable sources. This is called synthesis, and it's not appropriate content for Wikipedia articles.  We have to stick to what the sources say, and not interpret or read further into them when writing article content.
 * 3) Wikipedia is not a platform for advocacy of any kind. The pattern of articles you've created, along with your username, suggests you are here to push a political message, and you cannot persist in doing so.

As Jethro notes, Wikipedia isn't a platform for advocacy, either for a given cause or for your personal interpretation. This extends to trying to popularize terms and concepts that you have coined yourself. Please provide evidence of significant coverage in major independent publications for all content, especially for neologisms.  Acroterion   (talk)   01:17, 4 September 2017 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to 2020s, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Dark-World25 (talk) 06:44, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of List of SoundCloud rappers


The article List of SoundCloud rappers has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "SoundCloud is a music distribution service, not a label, so there is no particular connection between it and these rappers."

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. ... disco spinster   talk  18:30, 30 March 2018 (UTC)

Your deletion at Democratic backsliding
You deleted well sourced material with the edit summary " a known very politically left biased news organization". That's your personal opinion and not backed up by sources. It's described as liberal in its article. You clearly didn't check the source itself before deleting it, as it is an article written by academics, one being Tom Ginsburg, Leo Spitz Professor of International Law, Ludwig and Hilde Wolf Research Scholar at the University of Chicago Law School, one of the top law schools in the world. This was a sloppy revert and from your edit summary perhaps politically motivated, especially as you hardly ever use edit summaries. I note that your only edit to the article's talk page was to complain about an alleged anti-right wing slant, where I said I saw neither the slant or a mention of right-wing and User:Neutrality also saw no such slant and remove the pov tag you added, again without an edit summary.

Another reason I call it sloppy because part of the statement above it, which you didn't remove, was from exactly the same source.

Please be more careful in the future when deleting sourced text. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 11:58, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2019 North Carolina's 3rd congressional district special election, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Republican and Tim Harris ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/2019_North_Carolina%27s_3rd_congressional_district_special_election check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/2019_North_Carolina%27s_3rd_congressional_district_special_election?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

2020 Virginia Citizens Defense League Lobby day moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, 2020 Virginia Citizens Defense League Lobby day, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
