Scott Dixon pic
Just advising that I have restored the image of Scott dixon you replaced on his page. The new image may be updated (although it hardly obvious) but it is clearly not as nice a photo as the one you removed. Moriori (talk) 03:51, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Red notifications
Can you semi-protect your talk page for three weeks. Last two days I almost got 20-30 useless notifications from socks posting on other user's talk pages. They are mentioning my username. And remove this username from my talk page history.-- Cosmic   Emperor  04:47, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
 * There is a user named Babitaarora; that's why i asked you to delete the username from  this edit on my talkpage.--  Cosmic   Emperor  06:25, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, I was very busy last night and was only able to do a quick page protection on my own page before continuing with what I was doing last night. There are also other admins who were probably more available than me last night, so no need to rely on little old me :) It looks like User:Panyd already took care of it? I appreciate her being available to take care of the issue. Hope things calm down for you. Cheers -- Missvain (talk) 16:01, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
 * You say that but I woke up to two new accounts leaving messages on my talk page. Apparently men are evil and 'we women' should ban together...or something. I'm knocking them down when they pop up if I'm not beaten to it but this is very odd. PanydThe muffin is not subtle 18:59, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
 * I've had about 4 of those posts on my page too, User:Panyd. I went to go block the socks but you seem to beat me to it each time :) Thanks for being on top of it - sadly my time has been a bit lacking on Wikipedia this week to do some admin duties related to this (oh, and a deep desire to avoid the drama llama :) ) Missvain (talk) 19:05, 5 June 2015 (UTC)

Please, I am asking something else. Delete the username from my talk page edit history. I saw the same thing happen in Smalljim's talk page edit history(offensive username was removed from edit history). I don't want this offensive username to appear in my talk page edit history. As my username is CosmicEmperor and there is another user named Babitaarora.

Take a look at the latest edits:

AVS Video Editor
Dear Missvain, You have closed the deletion discussion of the article AVS Video Editor 17 Feb. 2015. After that I have created a new article with another content that meets the wikipedia guidelines of notability and has good references to reliable sources. You recommended to submit the article through Drafts or sandbox using Articles for Creation page. I have done that and the draft was approved and moved to the articles space. Please see Portal:Poland/New article announcements AVS Video Editor started on 2015-06-15, score: 20. However the new article was deleted again on 23 June 2015 by GB Fan. I've talked to him and he suggested I discuss the issue with you en:User talk:GB fan. Please recommend what I need to do to improve the article so it can be recovered, if possible.NeviRom 14:00, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi. If GB fan deleted the article then usually you would talk to them. I suggest you take it to deletion review: Deletion review where Wikipedians review the article of concern and either return it to the article space (undelete) or keep it deleted for various reasons they explain. Honestly, I don't think the subject is notable enough to have its own article. The previous deletion discussions state it, for example, here. I think you should just move onto another subject and not waste your time anymore with that one thing unless something happens and it becomes notable enough to merit its own article. Sorry for the bad news! Missvain (talk) 16:40, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Louise Nevelson
Hello Missvain! I'm sure you didn't intend it, but I wanted to let you know that you set the article Louise Nevelson to WP:PC2 protection rather than WP:PC1. I thought I'd let you know because you will probably want to correct that. Thanks! --IJBall (contribs • talk) 05:58, 4 July 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:American-indian-college-of-the-assemblies-of-god.gif
 Thanks for uploading File:American-indian-college-of-the-assemblies-of-god.gif. 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) 02:13, 6 July 2015 (UTC)

Undeletion of article on My Thousand Sons
Dear Editor, A protest is lodged against three times deletion of article on “My Thousand Sons” which is on a very popular book written by Rajesh Bhola who is an acknowledged inspirational and spiritual writer. I am a regular contributor to Wikipedia and have made certain quality contributions in growth of Wikipedia by submitting articles / modification from time to time. There have been three deletions of this article of mine. The said arbitrary and erratic deletion is unfair. As desired, the necessary amendments, as advised from time to time, have been carried out by me. The book is indeed a masterpiece and notable and, hence, deserves a place in Wikipedia. References and links have been attached which are highly praise-full of the book which has been wrongly termed by TOKYOGIRL79 as “This is incredibly promotional even after the editing. You also have a lot of sources that are written by people involved with the book to some degree. Other sources are more about the author than the book itself, which doesn't really show notability for the book”. In fact, the book is reviewed by none other than Dr. Ramesh Goyal, Immediate Former President, Indian Medical Association. The argument given in rejection is false and misleading. The book and the writer are notable as per your rules. The notability of Rajesh Bhola is already established and there are adequate references attached to the article on My Thousand Sons which is written by the same person by the same person Rajesh Bhola. The notability is duly established by way of attachment of number of references which are authentic sources for making the subject notable. The notability of the subject is duly established by way of his contributions to the most esteemed newspapers and periodicals of India. He has made more than 320 contributions to such reputed national papers and periodicals apart from being founder of Spastic Society of Gurgaon where more than thousands of children afflicted with autism, cerebral palsy, mental retardation and multiple disabilities are being taken care of and a page is duly published by you on the same after due acknowledgement of the notability of that subject. The book is autobiographical and provides glimpses of how these thousand children afflicted with severely debilitating cerebral palsy lead their lives so courageously. The book is indeed awe inspiring. Kindly help publish the article in larger interest of the readers. The book is already launched by Amazon and others at their worldwide network. Warm regards — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sombir9555 (talk • contribs) 08:42, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi User:Sombir9555 in order to request an article being undeleted, you have to request that on this page: Deletion review. Not on my personal page. Sorry! Missvain (talk) 18:06, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Your expert editing skills solicited...
Hiya ! In doing Commons picture work, I received a note on my Commons talk page from the editor creating Draft:Krov_Menuhin. It's an interesting story with some references. I'm writing because I'm going to shephard the uploader through the picture process - I do not know what the consensus will be but she is certainly in total good faith; see her note on my talk page over there. I am writing to ask if you could use your marvelous editing skills and give this new editor whatever assistance she could use to finish this? He seems notable (BBC filmmaking, etc.) to my Wikicommons eyes and you did a marvelous job with Ben Proudfoot's films last year, so I thought I would ask for your help on this one. And bonus, the editor to help is female! Cheers! Ellin Beltz (talk) 14:00, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi. I'm actually on a a breaking from writing Wikipedia articles right now due to workloads with my professional life. While I am adding some images to Commons, this is tied into my professional work as a photographer. I suggest perhaps reaching out to folks at WP:Biography or WP:Film. The one time I worked on that Proudfoot film (just one article) was a mere fluke - I have a degree in Native American studies and it interested me. So please forgive me slow response and lack of inability to help right now. Thanks for all you do! Missvain (talk) 18:10, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Some stroopwafels for you!

 * Wish I was there too :( Missvain (talk) 15:39, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Another AfD closure
Also, in closing the Prison Products Gallery AfD, you added a link to WP:Requests for undeletion, should that be to deletion review instead? I'm just a bit confused since one is for requesting userfication, the other is for challenging an AfD closure. Thanks, Altamel (talk) 18:18, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Premature close of AfD?
Hello, Missvain. I note you recently closed Articles for deletion/Online Abuse Prevention Initiative after less than six days of discussion. My understanding of our deletion process is that discussions normally run for a full seven days before being closed. The discussion in question does not appear to meet the usual requirements for early closure. Have I misinterpreted or overlooked something, or is it possible you unintentionally closed the debate prematurely? If the latter, I'd ask that you reopen the discussion and allow it to run for the remainder of the customary seven-day period. —Psychonaut (talk) 16:20, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
 * It was an accident. I certainly know policies on AfD. I'll reopen it, sorry about that. That's what I get for closing things without coffee. Missvain (talk) 16:38, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
 * You forgot to restore the talk page Bosstopher (talk) 18:11, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks; I had just run across a full-length article about an OAPI campaign in The Guardian, which led me to the organization's Wikipedia article and to the AfD. I was just preparing my contribution to both when the article was unexpectedly deleted.  Thanks to your expedient restoration I was able to make my edits – we'll see now whether the sources I found are judged in-depth enough to change the outcome of the discussion. —Psychonaut (talk) 19:50, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Articles for deletion/Focal Point (band)
I was evaluating the Focal Point (band) article because I saw its listing at AfD as an open case. You removed the AfD tag on the article and said in the edit summary that the discussion had closed as No consensus but there was not closure of this AfD. I guess this is a formality but as long as it is open, editors will continue to offer their opinions on this article. Liz Read! Talk! 22:52, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
 * There is the same situation for Articles for deletion/Stash Up, where you removed the AfD notice from the article saying no consensus but the discussion is not closed. Liz  Read! Talk! 23:37, 18 July 2015 (UTC)
 * I came here to ask about this as well having nominated Stash Up. I agree with the closing result, I'm just confused as to whether its technically open or closed still since the banners were taken down., you also marked the where you removed the closed discussion box as minor which may have been an accident but probably shouldn't be marked as minor. Wugapodes (talk) 01:14, 19 July 2015 (UTC)

thanks
Hi Missvain, thankyou for recently closing the afd on A Fada Oriana. All the best

Block of User:Kim at NetNumber
Hi Sarah. Not that it makes much difference, since I doubt he/she will produce anything but adverts for NetNumber, but you blocked User:Kim at NetNumber per the user name policy. A name like that is compliant with policy. They used to be called User:NetNumber, but apparently had their name changed to this one. See here, although I can't find any local logs except for that diff by User:K6ka. Best, Voceditenore (talk) 14:14, 22 July 2015 (UTC)


 * I assume the log you're looking for is here. Comparing the two timestamps though, the block was indeed set after the user had been renamed, in which I would strongly advise Missvain to lift the block ASAP. (Or another mop-holder can do it) --I am  k6ka  Talk to me!   See what I have done  14:41, 22 July 2015 (UTC)
 * ✅ Sorry about that. Missvain (talk) 20:00, 22 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I saw that you blocked this user, but to me this doesn't seem like a violation: "Sai Dharam Tej" is the name of a person, not an organization, and for all we know this is the editor's real name (and I note you didn't block them as impersonating somebody famous either).

About the username 'Balbriggan Cricket Club'
Hello Missvain! Just ran across your block decline of 'Balbriggan Cricket Club'. You asked the reporter to discuss with the user. I'm not trying to call out your judgement rather, just out of curiosity. Isn't that a blatant violation of UPol? (Usernames that are simply names of companies or groups are not permitted.) Regards-- JAaron95 Talk   15:05, 5 August 2015 (UTC)
 * I often like to give all editors (or potential "good faith editors") the benefit of the doubt and at least one week to either change their "ways" (for lack of a better term :) ), change their username, learn about COI, etc, or to have them screw up after repeated warnings and then, be blocked. Missvain (talk) 15:15, 5 August 2015 (UTC)

Cuesta Fire
Heyo! Saw you created an awesome page for the Cuesta Fire. I'm curious, do you have an interest in California Wildfires in general? I am trying to get more pages going for some of the larger fires dating back over the last few years. Any interest in helping out? -- Zackmann08 (Talk to me/What I been doing) 18:47, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi, I just live in California and happen to drive by wildfires sometimes :) I have casual interest, but, can't really guarantee my dedication to a project at this time (I just happen upon a photo and write the article - and I live in Napa, hence why I wrote Wragg FIre article). If there is a to-do list I might be able to help a bit, but, these days I generally have time for stubs (I'm a full time writer, so my energy to write long Wikipedia articles...is...next to nil right now :) ) Sorry I can't dedicate myself, but, I'm happy to help when my motivation is there!

Disambiguation link notification for August 27
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Scotty's Brewhouse, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Bloody mary and Frosting. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

12:47:52, 17 September 2015 review of submission by Julia.cmcf
Just need some help on this! I don't know how to add citations to an article on a publisher. I've included all the current publications in the bibliography. There are no articles or books about the publisher to cite, so I'm a bit stuck on how to proceed. The publisher and university websites are given. Could you give me some idea of what more to include to make the article acceptable?

Many thanks. Julia.cmcf (talk) 12:47, 17 September 2015 (UTC)


 * hi, fyi, it appears the same material was cut and paste here: Digital Image Archive of Medieval Music. if there are not reliable sources about publisher or archive, it might be a sign, "not ready yet," but then again it is encyclopedic, cheers. Duckduckstop (talk) 18:17, 18 September 2015 (UTC)

WikiProject tool?
MV, you once showed me a way to quickly and efficiently tag article talk pages with related WikiProject, including quality assessment ratings. Can you remind me what this tool is called or point me to a page with more information? This would be very helpful to me. Thanks! :) --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 15:37, 18 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi Another Believer! Sorry for the delay in responding, I have been a bit busy IRL. You can find the tool here. Missvain (talk) 15:39, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
 * No need to apologize, and thanks for the link! --- Another Believer ( Talk ) 15:42, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Hi User:GreenDayBeatles! Thanks for the suggestions. It's really great that you reached out - this article had a lot of issues, most notably it violated our policies regarding WP:Advertising and conflict of interest. The article was at risk for being deleted due to it's promotional nature. It's less exciting now, but, it now safely meets Wikipedia policies. Yay! I know you think it wasn't promotional, but, as a long time Wikipedia editor who has worked with advertising firms and promotional content on Wikipedia, it was promotional in nature. Using weasel words and peacock words, etc, are against policy, or should be avoided. Also, the track listings are something we rarely include in articles. The "reviews" of the albums and songs are promotional and uncited. We can't keep that information in the article. So, please do not add it back. I might have to protect the article and add a review process to it so that promotional material is not added. I suggest you take a look at articles for bands like Man or Astro-man? - you'll see that they do not have every track listing with a review written about it.


 * Please keep in mind I have been editing Wikipedia for ten years. I am also from Indianapolis originally and want nothing more to see this article be retained on Wikipedia and to have it meet our guidelines. Please understand that! This is nothing personal.


 * I have a question regarding a source used to write the article, perhaps you can help me figure this out. this Indianapolis Monthly article states that they will/have played Chicago ComicCon. Did something happen that they did not? Easy enough to fix, I just get concerned when things don't line up. I just want to confirm that they did not play Chicago ComicCon?


 * This Nuvo article states: "Aside from their opening-night performance, the band backed up Star Trek Voyager star Tim Russ for a dinner set the following day. They were listed as the favorite part of this year's Starbase Indy by fans on the convention's Facebook page — along with astronaut David Wolf."


 * So they were not the backing band? Just confirming, since this information is in a reliable secondary source.


 * I added a mention of the video. I fixed the spelling of Indy PopCon (it was a mere typo, I'm sure you recognized that, I know PopCorn isn't a conference :) ). I edited the language regarding when Year 3 was released.


 * Again, please do not add the promotional track listing information. It will just be removed due to lack of reliable secondary sources. Everything in this, and every Wikipedia article, should use only reliable secondary sources for the article.


 * Thanks for reaching out and I appreciate your collaboration and participation in bringing information about great music to WIkipedia. We just have to make sure it follows guidelines :) Missvain (talk) 17:27, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

User:Missvain: The convention that they played at in Chicago was Wizard World, not ComicCon. I even double checked with a member of the band!

I can understand how the overviews of the album came across as promotional, but why would the track listings themselves be promotional? Since Wikipedia is a place to get information, I think it would be useful to have them there, especially since four different band members write the songs. That way, people can use the track listings to see who wrote which one.

As for Tim Russ, I see now where you got that. However, the source article worded it poorly. They were not Tim Russ's backing band, they just played a few songs on stage while he joined them on an instrument. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GreenDayBeatles (talk • contribs) 17:51, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi! I have removed the ComicCon mention (Wizard World is already mentioned) and copyedited it to say that Tim performed with the band. I have actually recruited the help of two awesome editors - User:Guerillero and User:Ritchie333, both who have been editing articles about bands for years. I think it will be useful for us to have their thoughts about the tracklistings. While Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, we also want to WP:Keep it simple and also think about how people access information - perhaps we can find some reviews from reliable secondary sources (magazines, newspapers, zines) of the albums and use those to write summaries. Let's see what our fellow editors think, too! Missvain (talk) 18:02, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The good news is that there seems to be enough here to prevent deletion. The bad news is that there are still more things that need to be cut iff an outside source can not be found. I am going to dig into lexisnexis and see what other newspaper articles I can find. To answer your question, it would not be appropriate to include the tracklisting because wikipedia is not discogs. However, if (and this is a big if) there is enough information in the sources to spin off an article about an album, the tracklist is included. It is part of our confusing, and somewhat bizarre, house style. -- Guerillero  &#124;  Parlez Moi  03:18, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Can you email me, Guerillero. I have a PDF of articles about this band --In actu (Guerillero) &#124; My Talk  17:11, 23 September 2015 (UTC)

Query about a block
Hello, Sarah. I see at User talk:Professor Robert Spillane that you have blocked the editor on the grounds that the username " does not meet our username policy", but, as far as I can see, you have not said in what way it fails to meet that policy, and I can't see what the problem is. The only possibility I can think of is that you may have reason to believe that the editor is not, in fact, Professor Robert Spillane, so that is a misleading_username: is that the problem? If not, can you let me know in what other way the username conflicts with the policy? The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 12:02, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I honestly don't remember. Sorry. If people want me to unblock that user I will. It's been a while since I blocked that user and I'm sure there was something convincing about it, based on the reason given by whoever reported it to the username review team. Missvain (talk) 19:42, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

Block template
With regard to this account, you blocked them for having an org/group name. In this case however it is actually a violation of WP:IMPERSONATE as FKA twigs is an individual. They should receive the block message advising them to either change their name or confirm their identity via OTRS. Would you like to follow up with them, or I can do it if you prefer?-- Jezebel's Ponyo bons mots 20:45, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi there. I replaced the template. This was during the time when I was processing tons of username cases and slipped up on a couple of templates. Feel free to be bold in the future. I have taken a long-term break from username work. Missvain (talk) 19:00, 3 October 2015 (UTC)
