Hello Devonian Wombat, thank you for reviewing the article Earl Ankrah which I submitted. However, when i do a google search I do not see the page up. is there any reason why it is so? kindly help out — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pagefour (talk • contribs) 18:12, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
 * User:Pagefour, that sort of stuff isn't really my forte, but I can say from personal experience it takes a while for Google to index the article and show it where Wikipedia articles are normally shown.

Rejection of Highest median rules
Dear Devonian Wombat, you rejected my submission of Highest median voting rules on the ground that it does not look like an encyclopedic article, but I do not understand what it is so. I believe the topic is highly relevant as it covers a class of voting rules that is absent from wikipedia, generalizing from the Majority judgment, which is only the rule represented on wikipedia within this class (although it is said not to have the best properties among this class). Could you provide me more specific insights to improve the article, so its submission can be accepted? Anon86461 (talk) 08:48, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * User:Anon86461, Specifically, the article engages in promotional language with this quote: "In addition to faithfully reflecting the voter's opinion, highest median rules satisfy the independence of irrelevant alternatives and do not fall within the scope of Arrow's impossibility theorem.[1]" That's a pretty promotional statement, rewording it to something like "Proponents of highest median rules state that it faithfully reflects the voter's opinion, and that they satisfy the independence of irrelevant alternatives and do not fall within the scope of Arrow's impossibility theorem" along with adding a negative view of Highest median voting in order to meet WP:NPOV, there are also large chunks of the article which are uncited, and the "definitions and notations" section reads somewhat confusingly, I quite frankly didn't understand what it was trying to say. I was admittedly a bit harsh, so clean up a couple of the problems and you should be good to go. Devonian Wombat (talk) 09:56, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for this detailed response. I have applied your suggestions and I reckon that the article has improved a lot. I hope it will now be accepted. Anon86461 (talk) 11:46, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Life and Liberty Party
There is a clear consensus on the talk page to include the Life and Liberty Party on the talk page of the 2020 US Presidential Election third party candidates page, your reversion goes against that consensus. Please refrain from doing so again.XavierGreen (talk) 01:44, 10 September 2020 (UTC)
 * User:XavierGreen, no, there is currently a 3-2 tally in your favour, given Tartan previously stated his support for the notability criteria. Please, next time you want to make a change actually have a proper discussion instead of using a backally agreement to make changes. Since there was no discussion and even the discussion you had did not actually arrive at a consensus, you cannot legitimately make those changes.

Request on 16:37:14, 13 September 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Garrettdcole
Hello, thank you for taking the time to review the draft crystalline coatings page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Crystalline_Coatings). I made the necessary corrections to the embedded and external links as you pointed out. I also apologize for this coming across as an advertisement, that was not my aim at all. I did my best to support all stated technical capabilities with links to published articles. This technology has been vetted in the literature with publications in Science, Nature, Nature Physics, Nature Photonics (x2), and so on... If you can make a pass and revise the points that you find most problematic that would be much appreciated. There is a very detailed write up here that I was aiming to summarize (and update with new and more recent citations). Or please highlight specific sections and send back to me to correct. I don't have a lot of experience with Wikipedia, but many moons ago I added contact to the VCSEL and semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) entries without issue.

I would claim that this is a a timely topic, there have not been much new in the way of optical coatings technologies developed for the last 30-40 years, this is the first new manufacturing method then in a generation...

Requesting attention
Hi,

It seems you came across and edited article Regensburg lecture. I would like to bring to your attention that the earlier edits to the article by ip 89.211.117.211 seemed doubtful to me. I reported on Wikipedia:Editor assistance and subsequently Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents too but strangely enough no body seems to have bothered. And I don't know what needs to be further action.

Since you have visited article and you are an experienced editor you may be knowing processes better so bringing the same to your attention. Bookku (talk) 06:40, 22 October 2020 (UTC)
 * , well generally the first thing to do is to raise the issue on the IP's talk page, they seem like they're trying to help and letting them know that you have an issue with what they're doing is probably the best thing to do right now. If they don't reply, then maybe you could go to AN/I again, but I would personally recommend simply fixing the content you disagree with, and only going to AN/I if the IP reverts you and refuses to talk. Since they haven't edited since September, I'd say you probably won't have to worry about them reverting you though. Devonian Wombat (talk) 07:22, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

Request on 20:41:29, 16 November 2020 for assistance on AfC submission by Bengals93
Good afternoon!

I wanted to reach out because I recently submitted a draft page titled "Athens College of Ministry" that you declined. You cited that there were not secondary sources to acknowledge the titled subject, Athens College of Ministry. I wanted to see if I could receive assistance with this in getting this page published as it seems that there is plenty of material in the local Athens area that has mentioned the Athens College of Ministry. I will include a few sources that I found just from a simple google search. I'll be happy to answer any questions and look forward to hopefully receiving assistance with this (I'm a first time editor). Thank you!

MICHAEL REEVES DRAFT
I want to acknowledge that you approved my Michael Reeves article draft and approved it then got it created. But shortly after, another editor by the name of Delta fiver reverted your approval and made the article a draft again. I just wanna know of the hierarchy in the Articles for creation reviewers and how approved articles get reverted by others. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 12:37, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Any editor who is autoconfirmed can move an article to draftspace per WP:BOLD, though if it is unjustified they could get in trouble. Quite frankly I think Delta fiver is wrong. I would encourage you to simply move it to article space yourself, or submit it for review again, since from what I can see Delta fiver was incorrect in their assertions that the article did not prove notability. Devonian Wombat (talk) 20:33, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

Ok. I see how opinions can differ a lot. Delta Fiver said he had the same experience with me with his Fedmyster article and said I just have to keep adding more information of notability. You could discuss with him in his talk page if you feel that he should not have reverted the article's approval. Nintendoswitchfan (talk) 07:36, 20 November 2020 (UTC)

13_Cameras should definitely not have been accepted.
In it's current state, I could AFD it, and is only saved from CSD A7 due to the fact there's no A7 for movies. Kindly move it back. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 00:10, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * No, reviews in Variety and The Hollywood Reporter and The New York Times clearly indicate notability. I have cleaned up the article somewhat, adding some more information. Devonian Wombat (talk) 00:14, 23 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks. —moonythedwarf (Braden N.) 00:17, 23 November 2020 (UTC)

Cite format
This edit italicized sources which should not be italicized. They were fine. This is happening in many of your edits. Please fix this. -- Valjean (talk) 06:34, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * No, per Template:Cite web, whether we use "work", "publisher" or "website" is entirely up to editing discretion, and CITEVAR says we should stick with what it was originally, which was work. Therefore, without a talk page discussion I feel that is what should be upheld. Devonian Wombat (talk) 06:55, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * It's not that simple. Sources like PBS, NPR, CNN, ABC, NBC, BBC, etc. should not be italicized. Save that for newspapers and magazines. The end result is the most important thing. When in doubt, look at the article for the source and see how it's done there. -- Valjean (talk) 07:30, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Point me to a policy that says we should follow article italicisation in references and I will relent. Devonian Wombat (talk) 09:12, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * It's actually the other way around. The source title is italicized or not italicized in their article because we have manual of style guidelines for such things. They are not done haphazardly. So when in doubt, it's just easy to figure it out by looking at the article. -- Valjean (talk) 14:13, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

I found this: -- Valjean (talk) 14:22, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , still, I'm not seeing anything that says we use the "publisher" format for online versions of TV and Radio stations. Hell, even the template itself I linked above is confusing at a second glance, it says simultaneously: "The publisher is the company that publishes the work being cited. Do not use the publisher parameter for the name of a work (e.g. a website, book, encyclopedia, newspaper, magazine, journal, etc.)" and "Associated Press, Reuters, Agence France-Presse. Do not use for sources published on the agency's own website; e.g. apnews.com or reuters.com; instead, use work or publisher." Honestly, I feel like this is not a situation where either of us is "right", its just a matter of whether you think italicised or normal text looks better in references. Devonian Wombat (talk) 20:51, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * There are several different parameters one can choose that produce the same result, and I'm not always sure which is the proper one to use, so I just make sure that the end result is right, because that is not a matter of personal preference we can make about what "looks right" to us.
 * Our opinions and preferences are irrelevant, because experts have already made those style rules, and we should follow them. These things are not left to chance. Grammar, spelling, and typographical style rules have been decided long before we were born. -- Valjean (talk) 21:07, 24 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Well, I disagree, and I doubt that either of us will convince the other. Devonian Wombat (talk) 21:24, 24 November 2020 (UTC)

Bill Russell illustrator draft
Hello Devonian Wombat,

Thank you for reviewing my draft, Draft:Bill Russell (illustrator). I am a first time editor trying to put together a page about Bill Russell, an illustrator in the San Francisco Bay Area. You declined my submission because the article "reads more like an advertisement." I felt I included numerous non-biased sources and my tone was neutral (perhaps I am wrong, more than happy to learn where I went awry), so I am guessing what you flagged was the external links section listing some of Russell's personal websites. I was trying to be thorough since I saw similar sections on other illustrator's pages, but in reading about what Wiki considers spam, the help pages list external links as a big no-no. I wanted to know if that section was indeed the issue, or does the whole article need restructuring? Thank you, I am enjoying learning about the community here! --Flewisss (talk) 21:29, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
 * , The external links section is actually fine, what I had issue with was the use of Peacock terms, such as "renowned fingerstyle solo guitarist", "Of particular note", etc, and the fact that the article has far too many quotes talking about Bill Russell. There are also way too many Primary sources in the article, Russell's websites are cited something like 25 times, way too many. If you removed some of those primary sources and cleaned up the prose to remove a few quotes, replacing them with prose written by you, I would say the article would be ready for article space. Good luck! Devonian Wombat (talk) 23:28, 3 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for that feedback. I understand what you are getting at, I'll make sure to rewrite any weighted language/quotes, and I will remove some of the personal site references. --Flewisss (talk) 00:47, 5 December 2020 (UTC)

Ready for another review
Hi Devonian Wombat,

You reviewed my submission, Draft:T. O'Conor Sloane III, a couple of months ago and declined it for the following reasons:

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

I appreciate your review and really got a kick out of the reference to "peacock terms," a term with which I was not familiar. The declination, although initially disappointing, was the best thing that could have happened to my proposed Wiki article! It spurred me into doing vast, possibly even unhealthy amounts of research and rewriting and the draft is dramatically improved in my view - including enough references to tickle the fancy of even the most ruthless of editors haunting the late night Wiki space.

I was wondering if you might take another look? Having recovered from that first gut punch, I am ready for another go round.

Thanks in advance,

Mistake regarding headline
There’s been a mistake regarding the headline of my article. It should be ‘Ivan Peresvetov’ instead of ‘Ivan Semyonovich Peresvetov’. I’m sorry if I made it confusing – I’m new to Wikipedia and this was my first article ever created.

How do I resolve this matter? Can you change it (if you were the one to review and accept it)? Or must I make a new entry for ‘Ivan Peresvetov’ that redirects to the current article?

The best would be if the headline could be amended, since ‘Ivan Peresvetov’ is what the historical figure is most known as in English language literature.

See your post on my talk page for more info about the article in question.

My first article - my first decline
Thank you for reviewing my first article - draft:Skateboard GB

Being my first article I wasn't expecting it to pass first time! Appreciating your comments, I've removed all primary sources and found some more references. I'm also doing some more reading around how to edit on Wikipedia so hopefully we'll get closer. I can see a lot of news websites refer to 'skateboarding' with quotes from Skateboard GB's CEO, but they do not explicitly state 'Skateboard GB' so I appreciate this may not be possible for publication until more sources become available. The official Team GB website, for example, refers to the Skateboard GB website, but does not provide much further context. So whilst there is a clear relationship and plenty of circumstantial evidence that Skateboard GB is the governing body, I'm guessing this is not in itself sufficient for a Wikipedia article?

(This is also my first talk so I hope I've done it correctly?)
 * , nice work on finding more sources, I've reviewed the article again and found it to be notable. Its close, but several of the sources provide significant coverage of Skateboard GB in particular. Your comment is fine, but remember to add four tildes on the end of it (there should be a button that does it for you). Devonian Wombat (talk) 21:39, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

 * , unfortunately, I wasn’t able to find references for those two, the first one I just couldn’t find any good sources for, while the flood of Astrology books and articles made searching for a source for the retrograde motion also impossible. Devonian Wombat (talk) 21:49, 31 December 2020 (UTC)

I don't understand your scepticism concerning the shrinking of Jupiter of only 1 mm/yr by the Kelvin-Helmholtz mechanism. You can read the book by Patrick Irwin. On page 4 of its second edition (2009) it is clearly given 1 mm/yr and not 2 cm/year. From where is coming this last wrong figure, I don't know.

His value of 1 mm is corroborated by the paper by Liming Li et al. of 2018 giving an experimental flux of internal heat of 7.485 W/m^2 as measured on place by the Cassini probe. This correct reference to this paper is already given as n° 12, attesting the new figure, in the box, for the Bond albedo of 0.503 !

You can easy calculate yourself the effect and can get the observed figure of 1 mm/yr related to 7.5 W/m^2 with the derivative with respect to t of the formula giving the total gravitational energy of Jupiter (see here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin%E2%80%93Helmholtz_mechanism) :

U = (3/10)G M^2/R = 1.03 10^36 J,

i.e. dU/dt = -(3/10)G M^2/R^2 dR/dt = -1.46 10^28 dR/dt.

Introducing dR/dt = -1 mm/yr = -0.001 m/yr = -3.17 10^-11 m/s, you get dU/dt = 4.64 10^17 W.

Dividing by the whole area of Jupiter 6.14 10^16 m^2 you get 7.55 W/m^2.

Are you now convinced ?

If you introduce 2 cm/yr instead of 1 mm/yr, you'll get 150 W/m^2, clearly a much too high figure.

Please, I ask you to restore my paragraph !

Thank you in advance and with my kind regards,

Christophe1946Christophe1946 (talk) 16:54, 5 January 2021 (UTC)--Christophe1946 (talk) 16:54, 5 January 2021 (UTC)Christophe1946 (talk) 17:04, 5 January 2021 (UTC)--Christophe1946 (talk) 17:04, 5 January 2021 (UTC)
 * My problem isn't with the raw data, it's with how the section is structured, the referencing within it, and how it is worded. Currently, that paragraph is worded in a highly original research-ey way, Wikipedia articles should not contain lines like "This value of 2 cm/year seems much too high" and an entire paragraph to support that, they should just simply say, "Jupiter is shrinking by 1mm/yr" with one or two supporting references.


 * We also should not be providing advanced mathematical calculations in general-interest articles such as this one per WP:ONEDOWN, and this is especially the case here because your section talks about concepts that the reader would not have been introduced to earlier. Also, the references are somewhat malformed, information such as quotes and page numbers should be inside not outside of the reference. Devonian Wombat (talk) 21:56, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Marriage Agencies
Thank you for checking through the draft of the Marriage Agencies page which I have been working on. On the 31st of October 2020 you decline its publication citing: ''This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.'' I have done my best to keep the page neutral and encyclopedic, and with 20 citations I believed there was good backing for what had been written. What would be highly beneficial is if you could please give some pointers so that I can easily fit the page to the correct style. Thank you again for your cooperation and assistance in helping me expand information available here on Wikipedia. JonnyDee19 (talk) 07:29, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Fancy saving Antarctica?
Another FA with a climate section I'm tackling, but a geology section that is Chinese to me :). Do you have time and appetite to repeat our effort at Earth? The article is not yet at FAR, so no time pressure. Femke Nijsse (talk) 19:24, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Wikiproject Video games Newsletter survey
Hello Wombat! I'm conducting a feature for the video games newsletter similar to that of a survey. I'm going to ask users their opinions on a specific matter and highlight unique and common answers to determine consensus on a subject. Your input would be very valuable, alongside others, to help answer this question.

The question is: '''How do you determine what makes a video game character notable enough for their own page? Do you follow pre-existing guidelines or have your own opinions on the matter?'''

I have a question.
This is the article I submitted: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Yaga_(game). You rejected it with the following message: “This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources [...]”. I am fine with that, so I went to look at other videogame pages on wikipedia. Now, if you could kindly explain to me how this following article: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_of_Murder:_Hunt_for_the_Puppeteer respects the rules and mine doesn’t, then please do. I’m genuinely confused, as that article has even less sources than mine, and has been approved. I hope this doesn’t come off as rude, I just want to understand what I did wrong, by comparing my article with others on the subject. How did that article get approved?

 * , It is not just a question of "number" of references, it's how reliable they are. In the case of the latter article, it has a link to metacritic, which lists reviews in several publications considered reliable according to WP:VG/RS. That likely wouldn't be enough for it to be accepted at AfC today, but back in 2012 when it was created standards were lower. For your article, you should change the references from bare url's to proper references using Template:Cite web, and maybe check out WP:VG/RS as well.
