I don't know if you added this source, but one editor seems to have issues with it. Best,  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  19:53, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Greetings, It has been sometime now. But, if that source is not the best, please feel free to use one of these other ones , or . Seems like the newer news articles are already referencing the new branding. Ktin (talk) 20:06, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Will do, thank you. Best,  Mr.choppers &#124;   ✎  20:08, 30 August 2020 (UTC)

Not spam!
Special:Diff/975849643 wasn't spam! My vote was pretty perfunctory—probably should have written what I just wrote in the first place :) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 19:29, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks, much appreciated. :) Ktin (talk) 20:07, 30 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Hola ! Just saw this comment here. I definitely appreciate all of it :)
 * I am not sure if I have told this earlier, I genuinely like the diligence that you bring into your work -- be it the thoughtful way you go about the AfDs, or the way, you iteratively work on copy-edits and improvements such as the most recent one at Kesavananda Bharati. You have been a pleasure to know here at WP, and I look forward to much more collaboration in the days to come. Ktin (talk) 19:47, 6 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Ah, thanks so much Ktin—I'm blushing! It's great to work with you too—you're thoughtful, thorough, and so considerate. I look forward to working with you in future as well :) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 20:09, 6 September 2020 (UTC)

Opening sentence of the article Kesavananda Bharati
Hi, Ktin. I tried to make the first sentence of the article Kesavananda Bharati to be as general and informative as possible, following MOS:LEADBIO. When I first read the first sentence, I couldn't immediately understand who the person in the article was. In my logic, as also shown in the examples of biography article opening sentences here, the first sentence of such article should contain the name of the person, the birth and death dates, the nationality of the person, the occupation, and then the positions/roles. The first sentence of the article as it is now does not follow this, and hence it is non-informative for me. I think we need to state that he is Indian, and then followed immediately by his occupation. What I could think of the occupation was "Hinduism leader". Perhaps it should be "Hindu leader" or "Hindu monk" or "Hindu priest"? sentausa (talk) 21:19, 7 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the note here . I do understand with what you are attempting to do there and I agree with the approach too. My concern with the text that you had there was that the phrase used was not right. Regarding the correct phrase - please can you post this question on the article's talk page for guidance from folks who are knowledgeable about this topic. Thanks and good luck. Ktin (talk) 21:26, 7 September 2020 (UTC)

Thank you!!!
Thank you, Ktin, for supporting my photograph of the construction site in Bellevue. You know, though, I am tired of fighting that one. I'm just going to edit other pages. But, thank you, it felt good to have a supportive comment like that.Truth Is King 24 (talk) 01:17, 8 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hey there, ! Thanks for the note! I genuinely believed that a construction site is a vital part of a city. It is going to be with us for the next few years, and it is best that we embrace it and truly show our city as the way it is! Anyways, moving on, I think is the pragmatic thing to do! Good luck and have a great week ahead! Ktin (talk) 01:48, 8 September 2020 (UTC)

Hindrise (NGO)
I'm intrigued by your assertion that an article at AfD that meets WP:G11 cannot be deleted under WP:G11. Always open to new ideas and correction. COuld you please show we where in policy it states that? Thanks, -- Deep fried okra  ( talk ) 02:08, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * You wrote, while this might be water under the bridge, I will continue to expect better from you as an Administrator, could you please provide greater specifics on how to meet your expectations? -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 02:10, 11 September 2020 (UTC).
 * , I have no particular stance on that deletion other than the fact that was already made, that your action was disrespectful to the time invested by others who had contributed there. Let's move on! Ktin (talk) 02:12, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * You say that by deleting a CSD candidate, I was disrespectful? I take that very seriously-- could you elaborate and guide me so that I can be more respectful in the future? -- Deep fried okra ( talk ) 02:17, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * There always have been and always will be those that hold deleting anything is akin to xxxx xxxxxx (preceding text has been blanked by the talk page owner, and not by the author of this particular comment) These are the people that will doom Wikipedia. John from Idegon (talk) 02:49, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Hey John! Nice to see you here. Absolutely nothing against deleting. Just the whole act of doing it while folks were discussing (however nuanced or not) seemed disrespectful to the time invested by the participants. But, anyways, water under the bridge now. I have moved on. Ktin (talk) 03:23, 11 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Generally, it's disruptive to make any process take longer than necessary. Some people here are all about the fellow editors; some are about the encyclopedia. Some of us are on the extreme on both ends. Having been in business for about 35 years, I've learned no individual is unreplacable. However, there's only one en.wiki.

Stats
Thanks for adding the stats tables at Joe Ruklick. Don't get me wrong, they are nice to have (though some might argue WP:NOTSTATS). Typically, stats tables or comparable filmographies or discographies have not been an ITN requirement. Usually basic prose covering career highlights have been sufficient. Again, thanks for addressing it. Cheers.—Bagumba (talk) 05:44, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Agree with you -- particularly when there are reams of incoherent tables. But, here it seemed to make sense. And, was easy to source. So, all is good. Cheers. Ktin (talk) 05:51, 19 September 2020 (UTC)

DYK
Not sure if John Turner qualifies for DYK since I don't think you/we expanded it 5x from where it was a few days ago (refs don't count, unfortunately), and that's the only WP:DYK criterion that seems relevant. Special:PermaLink/975172470 (last pre-overhaul version) is 3546 words; Special:PermaLink/979577307 (current version) is 3242 words. If it got to GA status it could be nominated then. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 14:58, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , You will not believe this -- I was planning to check with you first before posting there. I was under the wrong impression that DYK was just about interesting facts. Seems like it is tied to an article changing status (e.g. 5x change, conversion to GA status etc.) Ktin (talk) 15:02, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Haha, I'm hardly an authority! But I've done a few DYKs so I'm pretty familiar with the criteria. Yeah, unfortunately DYK is about interesting facts + satisfying the very detailed set of criteria. I think reffing up an article should probably qualify, but sadly that's not one of the ways to get a DYK, at least at the moment :( AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:08, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , makes sense. Now, I should go and withdraw from there before it goes down a spiral. :) Ktin (talk) 15:59, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thanks so much! . Much appreciated. Ktin (talk) 01:48, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Sam Curran
The standard cricket project way of working is that we don't add franchise league teams to the lead. These are short lived contracts on a temporary basis rather than long term contracts. By all means feel free to remove the reference to CSK after this year's IPL is over and/or Curran leaves the team. Or just remove it now and go with the standard way we work. Blue Square Thing (talk) 18:26, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Appreciate your note. I will add a reminder to myself to follow up at the end of this season. As you can imagine, I went in to the article after today's IPL game and made the edit. For comparison Faf du Plessis seems to have this accurately written up. Ktin (talk) 18:29, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * That specifically says that he has played matches for... rather than he does play for. The list specifically doesn't mention that he's played for Kent, for example - whom he played three matches for last season. That was such a short stint that I would never have considered it important enough to add to the lead. I'll remove Melbourne now from that list - he played a single match for them.
 * There are cricket articles that I've come across that are more than a decade out of date. That tends to be exactly this sort of thing and is why we would never aim to include it. Blue Square Thing (talk) 19:30, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Point taken! I have added a reminder for myself and I will follow up . Ktin (talk) 19:39, 19 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , btw -- Sam Curran has been in the top 10 articles globally in the last couple of days!!! Saw that one today and was reminded of our interaction. Cheers. I see that you have been doing lots of patrols to avoid WP:VANDALISM there -- thanks! Ktin (talk) 05:20, 25 September 2020 (UTC)
 * -- I have kept my promise. Good luck. Ktin (talk) 18:50, 6 November 2020 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Haha. Thanks . You didn't have to do this :) But, thanks again. You know that I truly think you (and the work that you do here) are a great ambassador for our community! Have a wonderful rest of your day! Ktin (talk) 16:17, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

Be careful if you get an edit conflict
You've just undone all my work again. I am not going to fix it! KittenKlub (talk) 19:06, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , hi there, I selected your edits to prevent over-writes, not sure what is happening. But, that said, I will step back for a bit, go ahead and re-introduce your edits if you can. I think references are more important at this time. Thanks. Ktin (talk) 19:11, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * But please stop submitting if you get an edit conflict, because else you will undo everything the other person was done which is what has just happened twice.KittenKlub (talk) 19:13, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , will do. My visual editor is not the best one at allowing me to merge changes. But, I will step back for a bit, please go ahead and add the references. My edits are copy edits and I can do that once the references are in place. Thanks again. Ktin (talk) 19:15, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Please let me know once you are done adding references. I will go in for a round of copy-edits. Thanks. Ktin (talk) 19:56, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Finding too specific German references is a bit to difficult for me. I've done the obvious gaps. (I can only switch between English and Dutch on my computer) Also I dropped German on high school to boot... KittenKlub (talk) 19:59, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , very similar problem for me :( I am using a translating service (translate.google), which is good, but not ideal. Ktin (talk) 20:01, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , My thinking is we trim the middle portions of the "Minister President" section. Seems overblown. Ktin (talk) 22:22, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * It's time for bed for me. I'm satisfied, but you can trim it a bit, because it is a bit larger. I deleted some things which too difficult to source and not that important... KittenKlub (talk) 22:25, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Cool. Let me trim that section and then call it good. This can go to homepage post that. Ktin (talk) 22:33, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

Precious
You are recipient no. 2447 of Precious, a prize of QAI. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:39, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Thanks a lot for this message! Definitely means a lot. Have a great rest of your day! Ktin (talk) 16:39, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Congratulations on the award! This is a rare and prestigious honour &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 19:30, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * "rare" made me smile, at no. 2447 ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:49, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * and -- thanks again for the very kind words, and also for the thoughtfulness that has gone into the comment in the prize box. I must admit, I feel like an impostor for the first article listed there, which I didn't have much to do with. Thanks again and have a good rest of your respective days. Ktin (talk) 19:54, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * according to Wikipedians, there are currently 39,986,340 Wikipedia accounts, of which 132,545 are actively editing, so 2,447 still counts as a rare honour! I certainly count myself honoured for being recognised and having my own day, for my work on the Rwanda article! &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 20:00, 26 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , definitely agree, and thanks much again, both of you! Also, just read the Rwanda article and saw that you have close to ~75% of the authorship (of that FA article) ! I just can not even imagine the huge amount of effort that would have gone in! Thanks for all that you do Amakuru! Ktin (talk) 14:35, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Yes, it's very satisfying to work on an article such as that and see the fruit of your work by getting the shiny FA star. It took me a really long time though, several years on and off but definitely worth the effort! Rwandan Civil War was another one I worked on extensively, and it's getting its main page slot four days from now on the 30th anniversary of the start of the war. Out of interest, where did you get the 75% statistic from? Is there a tool for measuring what percentage of an article was written by particular editors? (never mind, I see you've just linked the tool for me!) Cheers &mdash; Amakuru (talk) 14:40, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , Added the Rwandan Civil War to my read list. Will also look out for it on the main page. The depth of some of your works is truly inspiring! This thread has been truly eye-opening for me.
 * I just read 's efforts at her page, and the community building actions there are truly commendable. All in all -- much to be thankful about in these interactions.
 * Have a wonderful rest of your day! Ktin (talk) 16:13, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Thank you, blushing a bit. Today, Wolfgang Clement died, - Id normally make him ready for ITN but this is too detailed and unreferenced, and I did already three articles today (which includes some basic formatting for him, - normal is one). Unless you feel challenged enough, Ktin ;) - then I'd watch and help. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 16:19, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , I saw Wolfgang Clement's article earlier today. Seems like there is quite some work remaining. Unfortunately, I have work this afternoon, and I will have to go heads-down there. But, I can definitely help with copy-edits, if I can get some help with references / citations. Ktin (talk) 18:14, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * , this effort was totally worth it! Ktin (talk) 23:23, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
 * That's the greatest fedback for lazy me. I had three politicians this year (+ a successor), and it's not a field where I know the English words. Thank you so much! I'd give you Precious for that, but now that's a once-only thing. Guess who will be next? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:55, 28 September 2020 (UTC)

Eddie Van Halen
Hi there, I just wanted to discuss your edit on Eddie Van Halen before I make any changes. I know that the general rule is to refer to the subject of the article by their last name per MOS:SURNAME but, given that the band is also called Van Halen and the article talks about various members of his family with the same last name, I think that this would be an exception to the general rule and it would be more appropriate to use "Eddie" throughout to avoid confusion and to disambiguate from the band and his family members. What are your thoughts on this? TribunalMan (talk) 00:29, 7 October 2020 (UTC)
 * , thanks for checking. I did change per MOS:SURNAME. But, I do see your point. Maybe try changing it to Eddie and see if any other editor chimes in with their opinion? One thing to ensure is that we remain consistent with whatever we go with, through out the article. Good luck and thanks for checking. Ktin (talk) 00:33, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Chiratae Ventures


A tag has been placed on Chiratae Ventures, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Organizations for more information.
 * It appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement of https://english.lokmat.com/topics/chiratae-ventures/. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted 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.

Hey, I just marked this as reviewed and then unreviewed it because I realized I had voted in the AfD and was thus involved. Sorry for the multiple notifications! No reflection on article quality, of course—just didn't want to review something I was arguably connected with, even in some distant way. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 05:15, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * , howdy! Not an issue at all! I had totally forgotten about this one. Funnily, I was thinking of pinging you over the weekend to see if you could review Charles Allard. But then, thought that it would be inappropriate to do so and held off :)
 * Have a great week ahead! Cheers. Ktin (talk) 14:13, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * If you're sitting around waiting for reviews (I know it can be annoying), maybe consider applying for Autopatrolled rights? You've been here for a long time and have created a number of articles, so it might be reasonable. Happy (Canadian) Thanksgiving! AleatoryPonderings (talk) 15:54, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
 * , happy thanksgiving to you and your family as well! Pardon the delay, I had stepped out with the family here for the weekend!
 * Re: the article itself, it seems so ironical, somebody went in and deleted it for being a copyvio of a site that mirrors wikipedia content and was created somewhere around September 22, 2020. No attempts to check dates, seems like someone has been trigger happy. Anyways, let's see. Ktin (talk) 01:13, 15 October 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Chiratae Ventures Logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Chiratae Ventures Logo.png. 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:23, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

 * Ah, I think that's just because I didn't have a userpage on Commons when you nominated? I just created a minimal one and It shows up blue now, although perhaps the nomination itself isn't transcluded on the main nominations page for some reason? In any case, thanks again—you truly bring joy to my wiki-life :) AleatoryPonderings (talk) 18:51, 17 October 2020 (UTC)

That date of birth is on the internet, but most obits I have read said 86, so I assume that 86 is correct. Anyway, I made a double check of the article, so as far as I am concerned it's ready to go. KittenKlub (talk) 19:59, 4 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , Thanks much. I had given the dob a search, but, didnt find one. Hence, had left it empty in the body of the article. Agree on leaving the 86 as its referenced by almost all news articles reporting on his death. Ktin (talk) 20:15, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

That's BS!

 * Thanks so much, I really needed this morale boost this morning after hearing something quite demotivating in a different forum here, when I had asked for something. Much appreciated. Please have a great rest of your day. I have one more for you, when you have some time Marguerite Littman. Regards. Ktin (talk) 17:14, 8 November 2020 (UTC)

TheRichest.com as a source
Hi Ktin. I noticed that you recently used therichest.com as a source for biographical information in Alex Trebek. Please note that the general consensus as expressed at WP:RSN is that it does not meet the reliable sourcing criteria for the inclusion of personal information in such articles. I've gone ahead and removed it. If you disagree, let's discuss it. You may want to check WP:RSP and WP:RSN to help determine if a source is reliable. Thanks.--Hipal/Ronz (talk) 22:31, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , Thanks. Have you considered adding it to the edit filters? We should, if not already. Not a scalable model for editors to reference discussions from WP:RSN everytime a new source is added. Good luck. Ktin (talk) 22:37, 9 November 2020 (UTC)
 * I've not paid attention to when and how that is done. --Hipal/Ronz (talk) 23:00, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

Sorry Ktin for missing your credits, you've now been credited. You can always add credits to yourself, but I appreciate that's suboptimal. Stephen 02:51, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Anjum_Singh.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Anjum_Singh.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media 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 will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

My addition of contents on abhinandan varsha man
Hi Ktin, I have indeed added citation from reliable source. I.e. a renowned website in Marathi language in Maharashtra state of India. This 114 lines Epic has become very famous in Maharashtra and It was even sent to Prime Minister. Hence I request not to delete the important poem that was written taking huge efforts. It will be an inspiration to Indians to read the poem Sumantjuvekar (talk) 21:11, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

RD Devi Priya
Hi, Nice work on that article, just have a look at the awards Nandi Award for Best Lyricist as his name is not mentioned there for 1992 as stated in the article (before some of the more enthusiastic scrutinizers notice and/or oppse the RD) JW 1961   Talk  18:47, 22 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , great catch JW! I went by the newspaper article . I have gone ahead and removed the sentence for now. Will do some more searches and reintroduce. Unfortunately, even this link has a different name for 1992. But, let me search some more. Thanks again. Ktin (talk) 19:00, 22 November 2020 (UTC)

Suggestion
Hi, we meet a bit on WP:ITN but I was just wondering would you be interested in New Page Patrol, I think someone with your eye for detail and enthusiasm would be great at patrolling new articles - just a thought JW 1961   Talk  22:42, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for the thought JW. I would be honored to support. Quick question -- I have been able to spend additional time this week, because of the holidays in my offline world. Would the NPP responsibility require a time bound commitment? E.g. x reviews in a 1 month period to remain active? That might end up becoming a little bit of a challenge, not in the short term, but in a sustained period. If it is on a best effort basis, I am 100pc onboard to support. Ktin (talk) 22:52, 25 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , Like everything else on wiki, it's voluntary and so there is no minimum, though at the start you would be encouraged to take it slowly not approve or reject too many, 2 or 3 a day was all I did in my probationary month (that way an admin can easily see if you're doing ok) I just got the permission permanent this week so I haven't increased much yet. I just thought of you when I see the backlog and the amount of new pages appearing daily.  JW 1961   Talk  10:26, 26 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , makes sense. Sounds good. Sign me up. Thanks again for the gesture, JW!
 * Also, if you have a moment, can I request you to have a look at Mary Fowkes and review (if appropriate). Unfortunately, I didn't get to this one on time to get to WP:ITNRD. Will send it to WP:DYK instead. RIP. Ktin (talk) 05:09, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , Done, nice little article JW 1961   Talk  11:35, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
 * We can't just sign up people - everybody (apart from admins) has to apply for the flag themselves at Requests for permissions/New page reviewer. Have a great day and I'll check in at ITN later to see what you've come up with today!  JW 1961   Talk  14:45, 27 November 2020 (UTC)
 * , oh true. My bad. I think I have done this once before and got my hands slapped, but, hopefully with some additional data points, they might give me a relook. On your latter point, just wrapped up an WP:ITNRD submission. Was good to revisit my econ notes to expand the article. I think it is has shaped well. Thanks JW.
