Speedy deletion nomination of Category:2017 in United States


A tag has been placed on Category:2017 in United States requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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 removed 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.

Draftifying in NPP
I noticed that you draftified an article today Draft:Mulanthuruthy Padiyola. First, whenever draftifying, it is a good idea to leave a message at the user's talk page, as otherwise they likely will not know where to find the draft to work on it, or know why it has been moved to draft. I recommend installing the script User:Evad37/MoveToDraft as it automates whole process for you. I also recommend requesting the pagemover user right, as it allows you to move pages without leaving redirects, and avoids the issue of having to tag the redirect for speedy deletion. Cheers and thanks for your contributions to NPP. —  InsertCleverPhraseHere  05:14, 27 July 2017 (UTC)

July 2017
Hello Mr. Guye. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that there is consensus that we shouldn't tag pages as lacking context (CSD A1) and/or content (CSD A3) moments after they are created, as you did at Nathalie Pires. It's usually best to wait at least 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may drive away well-meaning contributors, which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), copyright violations (G12) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes (G3) should of course still be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks.

Gossberg (Hunsrück): Review
Sir, I realize your concern about sources but let me clarify a couple of points here. First of all, the German version of this article has even less sources and it was accepted regardless. By the way, some information in that German article is inaccurate or incomplete. Secondly, we're talking here about a secret military object with extremely limited access, so don't even hope to find anything about it over the Internet except for some vague mentions on forums and Google Groups. It's not a museum and it's not open for public, thus, obtaining detailed information about it will be nearly impossible. Finally, I know people who own it personally, I've myself been inside, and I had a luxury to look through the (huge) pile of documentation on it. My proposal is to accept the article as it is right now because more "verifiable" sources is simply not going to happen in the nearest future. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.96.203.158 (talk) 09:15, 7 August 2017 (UTC)

 * I didn't say it wasn't real. I agree with you more than those editors.

Friendly notification
Hi Mr. Guye,

This is a friendly notification to let you know that I have recently posted a detailed rationale for the decision to revert an edit you recently made to the Environmental racism in Europe article. Please feel free to consult other editors should you continue to maintain a different viewpoint on the matter.

The response can be found on the Environmental racism in Europe talk page, under the heading "Rationale for length of article: organization by region and national jurisdiction."

Thank you for your taking the time to consider this response.

Vivienne de Silva Boralessa
Hi Mr. Guye. You made a request on WikiProject Sri Lanka on 13 April for an article for Vivienne de Silva Boralessa. Just dropping you a line to tell you it's done :) Thanks for putting the request in!

I am curious though, since I notice you aren't a Sri Lankan yourself- how'd you end up making the request?

- ක - (talk) 12:09, 2 September 2017 (UTC)


 * I don't remember, to be honest. I may have been exploring other language wikis and saw a long article on her in one of them. I will tell you that Vivienne de Silva Boralessa isn't the only time I've requested an article by putting it on the appropriate WikiProject's page. I do that when I discover an obviously notable subject (usually from a country other than the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, India, Nigeria, etc) that, shockingly, doesn't have an English Wikipedia article. Thanks for creating the article, Wikipedia needed it.&thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 17:08, 3 September 2017 (UTC)

In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. Alex ShihTalk 01:27, 4 September 2017 (UTC)
 * Please consider helping get the huge backlog down to a manageable number of pages as soon as possible.
 * Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
 * You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
 * Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
 * Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.

Stub sorting
Please don't use the Stub tag if you can find a more specific stub tag; stub sort whenever you are able. To do otherwise will backlog Category:Stubs. Thank you.

 * I apologize. I usually use the template temporarily, then replace it with a more specific template (although, not as specific as it probably could be) such as  or . Could you tell me where I left the general template and didn't replace it? And yes there are a lot of stub types, which is a little overwhelming. I usually use ones where I can safely assume that they exist, similar to the ones I've mentioned already. I wish there was a tool that could help editors find the best ones.&thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 15:54, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I've corrected several people doing this. You're not the only one. I can't recall which article caused me to send this message. My apologies. I do recall looking at your contributions, and noticing you were doing this multiple times through page curation.
 * I've heard mention of user scripts to do just that; I tried one and kept getting error messages when I tried to save my js, so gave up rather quickly. If you look into the subcategories that the template you're using puts the articles into (like Category:American people stubs for USA-bio-stub, or Category:Theatre stubs for theater-stub, for example), it might be less overwhelming and let you stub sort even further. You can even right-click on those stub categories to open a new tab while in preview. I do that a lot, actually. -- I dream of horses If you reply here, please ping me by adding to your message (talk to me) (My edits) @  03:03, 6 September 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Critics of Donald Trump


A tag has been placed on Category:Critics of Donald Trump, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion,. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discusion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". 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 removed 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.

 * . . .and I just realized I made a mistake. The redirect should be "Severe Tropical Storm Noru". The "deadly" part was the sources's way of informing that it's already killed people. I'll change that. But still, LOL. There are actually scales like that though.

Class changes
Any reason you have been changing article ratings using a script? I tried changing one only for the script to be overwritten. YE Pacific Hurricane  06:13, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I've been making banner edits for a considerable time and only relatively recently did I discover the script. I think that many of these cyclone articles have been underrated. Sorry about that last one. I understand your concern about the Noru article, so I'll revert it myself. I assume by your signature that you are active in articles about tropical cyclones and I must say that they are of decent quality. Perhaps I should raise my standards when it comes to those types of articles. What do you think?&thinsp;&mdash; Mr. Guye (talk) (contribs)&thinsp; 18:40, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
 * I haven't looked at each change yet so I'll review others you've rated later. Partially because we have so many good articles (yay!) and partially since we don't use B class much (most non-current articles written by people like myself get assessed at C and then sent to GAN and possibly FAC, so the B class checklist is more moot point), I think our standards are more often than not a bit higher than most. I do appreciate you adding non-WPTC banners to other articles when necessary though. YE Pacific Hurricane  04:32, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Zackmann08. Thank you for your recent contributions to Kára McCullough. I noticed that when you added the image to the infobox, you added it as a thumbnail. In the future, please do not use thumbnails when adding images to an infobox (see WP:INFOBOXIMAGE). What does this mean? Well in the infobox, when you specify the image you wish to use, instead of doing it like this:

SomeImage.jpg

Instead just supply the name of the image. So in this case you can simply do:

SomeImage.jpg.

There will then be a separate parameter for the image caption such as Some image caption. Please note that this is a generic form message I am leaving on your page because you recently added a thumbnail to an infobox. The specific parameters for the image and caption may be different for the infobox you are using! Please consult the Template page for the infobox being used to see better documentation. Thanks!

Zero Time Exercise
Hi, Mr. Guye,

"Zero Time Exercise" page has been speedy deleted recently, however, I think it is worth to keep as it is a exercise concept covered by many media in Hong Kong, and a academic conference paper. I have tried to "contest this speedy deletion", but resulting in "contest in the wrong place". Shall I contact the deleting administrator instead? Thanks for your help!Bao Bao Leung 0218 (talk) 03:40, 31 August 2017 (UTC)

 * Currently there are 532 pages in the backlog that were created by non-autoconfirmed users before WP:ACTRIAL. The NPP project is undertaking a drive to clear these pages from the backlog before they hit the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing a few today!
 * The Wikimedia Foundation is currently working on creating a new filter for page curation that will allow new page patrollers to filter by extended confirmed status. For more information see: 
 * On 14 September 2017 the English Wikipedia began the autoconfirmed article creation trial. For a six month period, creation of articles in the mainspace of the English Wikipedia will be restricted to users with autoconfirmed status. New users who attempt article creation will now be redirected to a newly designed landing page.
