Lastarria
Hello, Jo-Jo Eumerus! First, let me wish you a Happy New Year! You will have seen that I have finished copy-editing Lastarria. I think it's in good shape now. I removed some duplicate wiki-links, following the guideline at MOS:DUPLINK, leaving the link at first mention, or at first mention in the lead and first mention after the lead. If you feel strongly that any of those I removed are needed, feel free to put them back in. I have only one suggestion, and that is that you link the word "flux". The first mention is in the last sentence before the table in Lastarria. If you type in "flux" in the search bar, you will get to an article Flux. I don't know if that's the best article to link to or not, but there is quite a list of related articles in the Flux section. Maybe one of those would be appropriate.

Here are the last two sentences of the second paragraph of the lead:


 * There is no recorded eruptive activity, but the volcano displays vigorous fumarolic activity. It is constructed on top of older volcanic rocks and features both andesite and dacite.

If you study the edits I made, you'll see that I changed "features" to "displays" in the first of these two sentences to avoid repeating the verb "features" (it appears in the second sentence). If you prefer "features" as the verb in the first sentence, perhaps we could change "features" in the second sentence to another word such as "contains" or "contains mainly".

Finally, I noticed that a photograph in Lastarria had no caption, so I read the Spanish caption in the image's information and wrote a caption in English. (I used the adjective "vigorous" rather than "violent".) Feel free to change it if you don't like it. Best regards, – Corinne (talk) 02:27, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Hey, long time no see, Corinne! And New Years. I've linked "flux" to volumetric flux rate. Thanks for doing the scutwork, anyhow! Your other changes seem fine. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:50, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

Happy New Year, Jo-Jo Eumerus!

Lake Tauca
Jo-Jo, sorry I wasn't more help on the Lake Tauca article. It appears we may get no other comments on the talk page. If I can help with whatever you decide to do going forward, let me know. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 16:00, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks for helping anyway. I think that this topic (Andean paleolakes) is kind of too niche to get more than a handful of editors who have any kind of familiarity. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 16:22, 7 January 2017 (UTC)

Nate Fish AfD close
Hello. Just out of curiosity, how does a 6-2 vote in favor of deletion, with multiple delete voters citing a failure to meet GNG as their reason, qualify as "the claim of GNG being met having gone uncontested"? - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 00:58, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , I'll leave Jo-Jo to correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like WP:NBASE was referenced as proof of suitability for inclusion, and no one said "but..." in response. Primefac (talk) 03:58, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * If that's the rationale, it appears Jo-Jo didn't read the discussion carefully or doesn't understand BASE/N. As a follow-up comment made clear, the person who cited BASE/N did so erroneously. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 07:23, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Greetings, Sorry, I should have specified that Rlendog's rationale carried the discussion. GNG is about sources, so providing them defeats any GNG-based deletion rationale unless someone contests the sources (e.g by saying that they are unreliable, not independent, that they all lead back to the same source and so on). This didn't happen, instead later voters argued to keep on the basis of WP:NBASE and delete on the basis of the previous AfD (consensus can change, so that does not automatically override otherwise valid keep rationales) or on the basis of WP:TNT and the promotional tone of the article (which is something that can be handled by a cleanup). Hence the keep close and the tagging for cleanup. I see that  has been cleaning up the page. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:50, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I think the issue is WP:NOTAVOTE. No matter how many people vote in one direction, its the case they make matters. Everyone who came in and just said "per previous AfD" basically did not present an opinion and therefore did nothing for the conversation. There could be debate as to whether or not the qualifier counts as "participating" in the tournament, but Israel has qualified now when they didn't in the previous AfD. The facts change, and therefore they need to be readdressed. Additionally as Jo-Jo mentioned, the complaints about promo, etc have all been cleaned up. I suspect if you look at the page now you will say it clearly demonstrates notability. Article clean up is not a reason to delete, its a reason to fix it. I think we should be thanking Jo-Jo for actually reviewing the arguments presented and making a call based on that rather than simply counting the words delete/keep which seems to happen too often. -  Galatz Talk  13:53, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
 * No, the page doesn't "clearly demonstrate notability" at all. If this is what qualifies as "notable" these days, then just about every good high school athlete in America should have a Wiki page, because good high school athletes get similar, if not greater, media coverage. Beyond that, I thought this place revolved around the concept of "consensus"? This was a 6-2 delete vote, but the closing moderator acted like there was a clear consensus to keep. Very odd. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 00:16, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Um, it's actually "administrator". "Moderator" does not exist on Wikipedia and is something definitively different. I can see you got confused about what "consensus" means; as the relevant section of the deletion policy notes a consensus is not a strict headcount, the arguments provided and evidence also matter. In this case the evidence provided was not contested and thus trumped the delete !votes. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 12:44, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Like a lot of Wiki moderators—oops, sorry, "administrators"—you seem fairly thin-skinned. Regardless, you're still wrong on the merits. As I explained above, the person who invoked BASE/N, which you seem to think "trumped" the six delete votes, did so INCORRECTLY. I understand it might be embarrassing to admit the mistake, but that doesn't change the fact you made a mistake. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 00:30, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * , I'm not really sure what you're trying to accomplish by insulting another editor. Jo-Jo has given a reason for their close of the AFD. If you think this was made in error, you are welcome to either file a claim at WP:DRV or re-nominate the page for deletion, though the latter course of action might appear to be an attempt to game the system (i.e. keep trying until you get the result you desire). So if you don't plan on going for DRV, I suggest you leave it be for now. Primefac (talk) 01:47, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * You're not sure what I'm trying to accomplish? I've politely pointed out, several times now, that this administrator's reason for closing the AfD was erroneous—which, for whatever reason, he still can't bring himself to admit or discuss. (For that matter, it's unclear why other people are more active in replying on this guy's Talk page than he is.) - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 06:48, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Er, the BASE/N argument was not the one that convinced me to close the AfD as keep; the sources provided by Rlendog were. Different poster and different argument. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 08:21, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * One essentially local article about the subject and a couple mentions on blogs are now enough to pass GNG? If those sources were so compelling, it's odd that not a single person chimed in to change their vote or to agree the sources were enough to meet GNG. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 03:13, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Clearly, nobody disagreed with them in the AfD. Which is what counts for an AfD close. "Nobody changed their !vote afterwards" is not something I usually consider as many people don't follow up on AfDs they've voted in. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 07:43, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * "Clearly, nobody disagreed with them in the AfD"? Are you being serious here? Those citations were so persuasive that two more people voted delete! after they were posted. - Bbny-wiki-editor (talk) 12:10, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

None of these did address the sources - unless you consider K.e.coffman's "TNT" reference as an indication that the topic is notable. Overly promotional content is a different issue altogether. Anyhow, I think you want to start a new AfD on the basis that the sources offered in the second are questionable and that there is no other notability claim.

Would you revert changes back to Simone Ahuja's original Wikipedia entry?

I made changes, but what was there originally was posted well.

Please revert. We need this section back.

 * I was directed to WP:Articles for deletion/Simone Ahuja. User:Buckrun10 - After you read the conflict of interest guideline, you may request to have the deletion reviewed at Deletion Review or to have the article provided to you by email or in user space at Requests for Undeletion, but it appears that the article was deleted both for notability reasons and for tone reasons, so that you should not expect that the article will be restored to Wikipedia article space.  If you have any further questions about what is appropriate in Wikipedia or about non-neutral editing on behalf of  your employer, you may ask at the Teahouse.  Robert McClenon (talk) 04:52, 10 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Indeed. At the page linked by Robert, there was a consensus that your article was not suitable for inclusion; I am not going to simply restore it. Your bet would be to write a draft with proof of notability at Articles for creation. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 08:38, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

AfD concern - KJIVA
Hi Jo-Jo Eumerus sir- I'm interested in restoring the article KJIVA which was deleted by you following an AfD that you closed. I'm not sure that WP:Deletion Review would be the proper venue for discussing this, as I don't have any issues with how you handled the matter.The conversation that took place was clearly in favor of deletion of this article, so I feel that you interpreted the consensus correctly. Unfortunately though, the editors who voted in the discussion failed to notice some pertinent information about the article's subject. so i clearly explain here that this article is categories in non performing musician it pass WP:COMPOSER please check point no 6, he is composer, record producer & lyricists (song writer). According this point the specific standard reference book is this. The invaluable Resources that wikipedia mention is here BMI Repertoire Search KJIVA. This article also passes WP:NACADEMIC point no. 9. please check this sufficient sources. Means it is notable in wikipedia to restore this article. According to me this article is deleted means there is partiality with this artist because there are so many articles like this which is still exist in wikipedia for example: G-Enka, Gone Thursday, Jun Sasaki, Tomohiko Kira, Claes Björklund, Sébastien Schuller, Hideo Yamaki, Adam Perry (drummer), Dan Wilde, Ultre, Fujimoto Yae, Sandy Mouche, The Thurston Lava Tube, Pharaoh's Daughter, Zoar (band), Pierrot Lunaire (band), Smilers, Elysium (band), Control Machete, Nine (band), Ruffus, Susumu Yokota, Flesh Field, Candysuck & many more. So i request to you sir please restore this article KJIVA because it passes wikipedia notability Inkitca (talk) 13:45, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Greetings and a couple of notes. First, other artists having an article has absolutely no bearing on this one - other stuff exists. I have no idea whether these sources would be sufficient to overcome the deletion concerns and would probably defer to WP:DELREV. I'll ask first. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:02, 12 January 2017 (UTC)
 * This editor appears to be one in a long line of sockpuppets whose only purpose is to promote Kjiva. The result of the AfD was clear. Best blocked, tagged, and ignored. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:12, 12 January 2017 (UTC)

Close on AfD for Emanuel Bettencourt
Did you consult the first AfD on Emanuel Bettencourt (which had only been closed two days before the second AfD was introduced) when making your decision? I'm not questioning the decision which certainly was right based on the votes of the second AfD. However, when looking at two detailed keep votes in the first AfD and no real arguments in the second that respond to these at all, it seems odd to change the 'no consensus' decision. If you looked at both and decided 'Delete' was the way of consensus, I'll defer to your judgment and it will save me the time in trying to bring the article back (even if I think sour grape renominations are wack). As always, thank you for closing AfDs, thankless task that requires a deft hand. Following here for any response. AbstractIllusions (talk) 15:57, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Generally speaking, I do not weigh previous AfDs unless !voters explicitly refer to them. Policy, consensus and the facts on the ground can change and each of these things can justify divergent closes from one AfD to another. In other words, I always evaluate AfD closes on their own merits. This case is a bit more dicey though, as it seems that mostly the participants changed, although I am not convinced that a hypothetical AfD combining !votes from both would have been closed differently. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 16:16, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Now, assuming that you want to contest the close on the grounds that the !voters ignored the evidence you offered in the previous AfD, I think these Turkish sources would perhaps be the point to start from, notability is not tied to sources being in English after all. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 16:16, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's where I would go. Now to find a Turkish speaker to help me make sense of it! Thank you for just letting me know how you approached it (seems entirely reasonable). Trust your judgement and will take it under consideration when examining more. AbstractIllusions (talk) 16:21, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Bungled AfD
Hi Jo-Jo. I'm contacting you as an experienced AfD closer. Articles for deletion/Isaaq Genocide appears to have been created without the appropriate template being used, and I can't see it listed in the AfD log either. Even if this is corrected now, there is several days' worth of discussion that would precede the listing. Is this a problem? I note also that there are accusations of canvassing (and no, I haven't read the whole walls of text!). Cordless Larry (talk) 07:47, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Relists at FFD
Hi there, I noticed you've done a lot of relists at FFD lately. Just wanted to point out the admin instructions for FFD, particularly that at FFD, a nomination to delete with no subsequent contributions results in a delete, not a relist. This helps keep the backlog under control as FFDs do not usually receive a lot of participation, so would otherwise just get relisted over and over. Thanks! Stifle (talk) 09:17, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Hi Jo-Jo, I was a bit thorough and critical in the reading of the article, but as you said, it's not up to the same standards you normally follow. It was quite unclear for me in parts. I can help you improve the article if you like, although I don't have access to most of the academic journals. I think the article and topic is interesting enough to make a GA of, so if you can spend some time between the other volcanoes you're writing about, would be nice. I think the category "volcanoes of Central America" is not correct; Mexico is North America, and Baja California for sure, also geologically it's part of the North America region, different from the Costa Rican volcanoes let's say. I will work on the article to solve my own confusions a bit, if you like. Have enough to do myself, that's not the point. Have you done GA reviews yourself? If you like, could you take a look at Eastern Hills, Bogotá, my first nominated article for GA? It's quite extensive, but an interesting read I hope and related to your work on Lake Tauca and the Altiplano in Bolivia?

 * I've never done a GA review myself, largely because I don't feel comfortable at adjudicating stuff I am not deeply familiar with, especially the parts about sound writing quality. And because during reviews I tend to assess each article sentence by sentence, which in a GA candidate with over 110,000 bytes of text is kind of scary. Preliminarily, I'd say that your article would probably pass on completeness reasons, but I didn't check how it holds up against any other criteria so far so far.
 * Speaking of La Reforma, seems like you broke the Harv citations on La Reforma with your edit. I've changed the categories to the North America categories. That is going to be the only article this short that I'll send through GAN, fer sure - the next potential candidate Mount Erciyes in Turkey is already longer and I am long from being done expanding it.

 * Postscript - huh, seems like I did send Fueguino in as well and that is even shorter than La Reforma. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:50, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Ah sorry for breaking the harv citations, I never use those, so apologies. I have added a table and a reference (I can only read the abstract, you may have full access to the paper) for the Comondú Group (as it seems to be called). What do you think of such a table? Needs to be filled in with more, it was just a quick edit with the available refs included.
 * Fair enough on the GA reviews, I see you follow the same course as I did with La Reforma in terms of assessment. Nice. I will review your other volcanoes too, probably next week. Good you write such complete articles on the interesting volcanoes of the world. On La Reforma it's not so much the length, more the amount of information in 1 sentence. Expansion may help the readers more. Especially non-geologists who are not familiar with the terminology. I will work a bit on La Reforma in between the work on Colombia. Cheers, Tisquesusa (talk) 21:16, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
 * No biggie, harv citations and sfn gave me no end of issues beforehand as well. I'll look at these tomorrow, in between Erciyes Dagi. This evening my reading topic is Water in California and State Water Project, although I don't plan on editing the articles. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 21:23, 27 January 2017 (UTC)
