Copyright
Hi, I am Itcouldbepossible, also known as ICBP. Recently you tagged a draft for copyright deletion. What are the symptoms that are there, when you run a earwig test? I get amazed thinking about how you know that an article or draft could be copyrighted material. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 13:54, 20 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi ICBP. Some of these are that a draft/new article has been created in one step and the user not having any prior experience. Also a lot of people aren't familiar with copyright laws and believe it's fine to copy content as long as you place a link to the source. These edits are usually obvious as they contain paragraphs that are written entirely different in comparison to the rest of the edit. Also those paragraphs are often the only ones with inline citations.
 * I run the copyviochecker quite frequently and sometimes I am right, sometimes not. Especially when it's not a new article but an existing one, you sometimes run into the issue of WP:MIRRORS.
 * Do you use any user scripts ? There are some that make it significantly easier to run a copyvio check.. – NJD-DE (talk) 14:28, 20 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late reply. I was busy all day with many things. Please don't mind. Yes, I have installed User:DannyS712/copyvio-check.js, but don't know how to use it. I would be really grateful if you would suggest me something else or some more user scripts. Always like help from experienced users like you. Thanks in advance. Regards. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 11:07, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Itcouldbepossible, no worries :) Actually I didn't know about this one yet, and also not sure how to use it. Looks interesting though, seems to be part of a toolset (WP:Curation toolbar). Maybe if you ask at Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers people will know more about it.
 * Currently I use NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh's CopyvioChecker.js. It adds a button in the toolbar to the "More"-tab (the tab next to the Twinkle-tab). Clicking it will open Earwig's Copyvio Detector for the revision you are currently viewing. In article history it will open it for the most recent revision. It will work in multiple namespaces (Wikipedia, User, Article, Draft,..), just not in the Special pages one.
 * I have noticed others like to use the "MoreMenu"-gadget which adds a couple of helpful links to the toolbar, incl. one that opens Earwig's Copyvio Detector.
 * Hope I could help you somehow. Let me know which copyvio detector script works best for you :) – NJD-DE (talk) 18:27, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
 * @Njd-de Ok, but I don't like using scripts from users who can be trusted little. You probably know how dangerous user scripts are. Thanks for telling me about the more menu, but it looks like it doesn't work for me. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 10:13, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Good evening Itcouldbepossible. Yeah totally agree with you !! I checked it when I found it, and it looks and works fine. To prevent anything weird from happening I forked it to a .js that I have full control over. Honestly I struggled a bit with the MoreMenu gadget as well (too many options for what I usually need). So I just use the script by NDKDD hosted in my own user space. – NJD-DE (talk) 19:39, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
 * @Njd-de Can you explain the last comment you made properly? I did not get the points correctly. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 03:51, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Itcouldbepossible, you mean the one about using NDKDD's script ? I just meant I copied the script from the other user to a script page in my own user space.
 * Currently you don't have any custom scripts yourself, right ? What you can do is create User:Itcouldbepossible/CopyvioChecker.js, and copy the content from User:NguoiDungKhongDinhDanh/CopyvioChecker.js there. And then simply include a line about your own script on your common.js at User:Itcouldbepossible/common.js like this importScript('User:Itcouldbepossible/CopyvioChecker.js'); // Backlink: User:Itcouldbepossible/CopyvioChecker.js. This way you can be sure it won't ever be changed by anyone else.
 * Let me know if I could help at all, or if you knew all of the above already (in the latter case: sorry for mansplaining). – NJD-DE (talk) 12:05, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
 * @Njd-de Sorry for the late reply. I was on a wiki break (and still am). Now I understand what you are trying to say. I have one script, ie. User:Itcouldbepossible/RecentChanges.js. ItcouldbepossibleTalk 12:14, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
 * This is mostly unrelated to the above conversation, but still relevant to copyvio, so apologies for taking over this thread. I had the G12's pulled up but clearly you removed the notice from Draft:Dinosaurs Park Lonavala before I got to it; if a G12 stops being deletable, please make sure you request a revdel so the older versions can be redacted (there's a script to make this easier). Not the end of the world, just something to keep in mind for the future. Primefac (talk) 16:59, 9 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Primefac, as a huge fan of this script this is exactly what I'd usually do in such case. Sorry for forgetting in this instance, and thanks for correcting my mistake. Must've been distracted in that moment. Maybe time for a coffee now or going outside to get some fresh air. – NJD-DE (talk) 17:06, 9 April 2022 (UTC)

Hi, you have got mail from Planetearth285
Hello, Njd-de, nice to re-connect with you again. But, just so you know, today, I sent you a mail. Thus, kindly/please be on the lookout for it from Planetearth285. Thank you, Planetearth285 (talk) 11:28, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello Planetearth285, nice to hear from you again. I received your email, and will get back to it later today or tomorrow. Right now "real life" is taking over. Hope you understand. Thanks. – NJD-DE (talk) 12:07, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello Njd-de, nice to hear back from you as well. And of course, please get back to me when you can. As we know, life needs to continue. Thus, please respond when its convenient for you. But to inform you as well, I have better insights on how to improve the page. Another editor advised/ stated that "the subject is notable as a senior civil servant but the article is a WP:BLP, which means it needs a reference for every sentence. There is whole sections that are effectively unsourced, that cover very large time periods. Update the article with at least another 30 references and it will be good". Thus, get back to me when you can, and we can map out how best to move forward. Thank you once again, Planetearth285 (talk) 13:44, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Planetearth285, thanks for being patient with me.
 * I didn't notice anything private that should be kept off-wiki so I will be replying here. I checked and the article has indeed been moved to draftspace at Draft:Yonov Frederick Agah in November 2021. Editors with a conflict of interest are strongly advised to request edits to articles via the talk page. However this doesn't apply to drafts. So you can edit the draft, add references, remove unverifiable content, and so on. Once you believe the draft is ready you can submit it for review then.
 * If you need some assistance in adding the mentioned references properly I am happy to help you with that. When it comes to finding them, I need to ask you to take the lead however. Did you have a conversation with Scope creep/or do you know already which kind of references are needed ? – NJD-DE (talk) 21:15, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, Njd-de, no worries, and apologies for my late response this time. Regarding to where to chat at, of course, we can do it on here - that is 100% fine with me. On the page, I see. It is good to know that in draft format, I can - edit the draft, add references, remove unverifiable content, and - Once I believe that it is ready, submit it for review. On adding the references properly, yes, please I would really appreciate assistance with that. But, I will come back to you if I do find some references, or I will let you know if I did not. Lastly, I did speak to Scope creep, unfortunately, he does not have time to help. However, he did not mention the types of references needed, just that "it needs a reference for every sentence/it needs at least another 30 references". But, I can always clarify and come back if I have more insight on this. Planetearth285 (talk) 12:40, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
 * @Planetearth285, ok sounds like a plan. Let me know when you found some sources that can be used as references. I will gladly help with the right formatting. Also let me know in case you have any other questions. – NJD-DE (talk) 19:34, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Misak Terzibasiyan
Hi dera Njd-de, i recently got a notice to a page (Misak Terzibasiyan) Which i edited before and you mentioned to remove the external links and i remove it but still i see the notice. would you please remove this?

Amir.mansour1370 (talk) 15:05, 28 March 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Amir.mansour1370, feel free to remove the maintenance template yourself. Also not all links necessarily needed to be removed. So if there are links that are in line with the external links guideline you could add them again. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:18, 29 March 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Cregg Castle to article
How do u make a draft an article??? Because I am making a page. Draft:Cregg Castle Chocolateba (talk) 14:27, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Chocolateba. I have added a template that will allow you to submit your draft for review so it can be accepted into article space. There's some things that will need fixing first though: e.g. we don't report rumours on Wikipedia, just facts published in reliable sources. Also the article will require inline citations instead of just the list of links at the end of the article. – NJD-DE (talk) 15:07, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Thanks Chocolateba (talk) 15:21, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * How do u add a location to my infobox? Chocolateba (talk) 15:47, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * You added a parameter but outside of the infobox. Add these parameters before the braces }}. – NJD-DE (talk) 15:48, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * Ok so hoe do you add it in the infobox?? Chocolateba (talk) 16:43, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * How do u add images without grtting copyvioed?? Chocolateba (talk) 17:41, 10 April 2022 (UTC)


 * I am not sure how to explain best as I am unfamiliar with editing on mobile devices. When adding parameters, such as "location_city", make sure it's inside the template. Look at how I moved the location paramter in this edit inside the infobox: diff.
 * Uploading images to Wikipedia can be a bit difficult. Images need to meet the license requirements outlined in the WP:Image use policy. Most images you will find on the web are protected by copyright and thus not correctly licensed for Wikimedia Commons. Easiest is to only uploaded pictures you have taken yourself. I am not an expert in explaining this to other users, potentially someone at the teahouse can explain better. – NJD-DE (talk) 18:15, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

Je Sa Jib-Man
Hi there, please take a new look at the article. I removed all copyright text. The only direct quotes now are about the manifesto and art piece instructions (which cannot be paraphrased without compromising historical accuracy). If I'm missing something, can you please tell me what section you are suggesting the copyright text is in? Thanks Fantwan100 (talk) 21:38, 25 April 2022 (UTC)fantwan100


 * Also, I wanted to note that all of the edits I have made (that are being put up for redaction) were directly addressing the copyright issues. Fantwan100 (talk) 21:40, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Fantwan100, thanks for your contributions! I did have a look at the revised article and that's when I noticed that there still were some issues, e.g. the one you also mention about the manifesto. I have removed all of them and marked the old revisions of the article for redaction. Once an admin has redacted these versions, they can no longer be viewed by anyone who is not an administrator. The admin will also remove the template message regarding copyright issues. The current version of the article as well as any future version will be visible for users however. Hope that resolves any concerns/worries you have. Let me know if you have any further questions. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:48, 25 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your reply I really appreciate you clarifying the situation for me. I understand now that it's just the old versions of the article will be redacted, but nothing of the current state of the article will change. Thanks again. Fantwan100 (talk) 22:08, 25 April 2022 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

 * Thanks, SiriusBell. That's kind of you :) – NJD-DE (talk) 23:41, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Behind Solitude and Isolation
Hello, Njd-de,

I was wondering what tool you used to uncover copyright infringement. Because the Wikipedia tool that we use didn't find anything and when I went to the page you linked to, it was just a blank page, unavailable for viewing. Do you have some special subscription? As an admin reviewing pages tagged for CSD deletion, I check each one and while the page was self-promotional, I couldn't verify it was a copyright violation. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 06:16, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
 * It looks like when I was typing this message to you, another admin deleted the draft. But I still have my question that I hope you can answer. Liz Read! Talk! 06:17, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Liz, I think the tool you mean is Earwig's copyvio detector, right ? That's the one I use as well. In cases where I believe it may be a copyright infringement even though nothing shows up in Earwig's detector, I tend to manually search for a few key phrases online.
 * In this case I had searched for "Sometimes I think life was much easier when we were kids," and was lead straight to the book "Behind Solitude and Isolation". Earwig's copyvio detector against the Google book preview didn't show it as a likely copvio even though sections were copied word by word from it.
 * I suspect due to Google previewing the book as images rather than text, our favorite tool can't detect it. I had a similar case recently where someone had copied from a book extract. It was available as pdf-preview on a Springer website but the copyvio detector wasn't able to process the pdf-content.
 * Did you try accessing the page I had linked manually, or just through a copyvio detector tool? If it even showed a blank page when accessing it manually, then this might be due to a copy-paste error on my side while using my phone for tagging it.
 * Sorry for this lengthy message, and thanks again for your efforts in reviewing CSD tagged pages :) – NJD-DE (talk) 10:31, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

Message from Amasssaudi
Hi Njd-de,

Good day. I just submitted my draft article regarding the nonprofit association AMASS Association Friends of Cancer Patients (Arabic Name: جمعية أصدقاء مرضى السرطان -the Arabic word “AMASS” means in need of help and assistance) is a Saudi Arabian volunteer-based, non-profit, charitable organization that aims to provide psychological and moral support to cancer patients and their families, and to educate and spread health awareness to the community about the disease and the importance of early detection.

It was declined by you. I would like to ask your help to make it better to meet a standard for official Wikipedia page please

Syzygy Hospitality
Hi. Thanks for your note on AIV. I understand your point about the edits being for apparently promotional purposes, but I am not sure that dealing with them as vandalism/spam is appropriate. The new article will either fail/pass review or be speedy deleted, and the handful of other edits were late last year. If the editor were actively spamming now it could be a different issue. On reflection I should have added some more detail to the AIV note rather than just use the blunt template. Cheers TigerShark (talk) 23:35, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

AfC reviewer?
Hi again Njd-de. Have you though of becoming an AfC reviewer so you can decline/reject the cruft you are tagging for CSD? It at least gets it out of the feed so no one else takes their time looking at it. You are as qualified as I was, if not more, when I applied. Just a thought. Other than that, hope things are going well. S0091 (talk) 22:42, 12 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi S0091, nice to see you again and I hope all is going well for you too.
 * I hadn't given that much thought yet but sounds like a good idea actually. I will think about it today and probably apply later today or tomorrow. Thanks for suggesting it! :) – NJD-DE (talk) 04:44, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

About Unxi_time page Edit
Hi Njd-de,

Can you please tell me why did you rollback my changes in Unix_time wiki page? ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unix_time&type=revision&diff=1095144041&oldid=1095143635 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Saitejareddy007 (talk • contribs) 18:09, 26 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Saitejareddy007. I reverted the edits as you kept edit warring and it's clear you only made the edits to refspam links to a specific website. – NJD-DE (talk) 18:13, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Okay, Can you please help me on how to get my edit accepted. I am new in contributing wiki page. And also the website that I mentioned is not a spam website. Saitejareddy007 (talk) 18:28, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't believe the article is in need of a "Why Unix timestamp is needed?". It seems pretty much covered already by the Encoding time as a number section. – NJD-DE (talk) 20:02, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Agreed, content seems little bit similar to what you have shared for us as we already have knowledge on it.
 * But I feel the below mentioned points are missing in the page right now...
 * It didn't specifically talk about how easy the scalability of applications will be to serve worldwide if they use timestamps in programming and database.
 * Also, there is no appropriate example of how the Timezone offset effecting the timestamp values.
 * Also, the ISO-8601 is an alternative to the timestamp in the programming. Using it won't be as easy when you do timezone conversion with ISO-string. - This is not mentioned.
 * Putting "Why Unix timestamp is needed?" as a sub-heading would attract someone to get answer quickly who want to know the benefits of using the timestamp (This would be helpful).
 * If you feel the points I raised are valid. Please do reply to proceed.
 * Thanks for considering my contribution. 🙂 Saitejareddy007 (talk) 20:52, 26 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi @Njd-de,
 * please respond here... Saitejareddy007 (talk) 13:42, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Best place to discuss this is the article talk page. Generally speaking Wikipedia articles are not how-tos. Headings such as "Why xy?" are not desired. Also you need to provide reliable sources for your edits. That website you keep linking is not such source, especially as it doesn't mention half of what you are saying. In addition to that, you must not copy copyrighted content into Wikipedia articles. – NJD-DE (talk) 16:17, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

Concern
I made edits for Bright, based on his recent works. May I understand why it is removed? BrightVC123 (talk) 21:39, 27 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello BrightVC123.
 * What do you mean when you say you made "edits for Bright" ? Are you acting on his behalf? Do you receive financial compensations for your contributions?
 * As indicated in the edit summaries, your edits were reverted due to lack of references to reliable sources and/or due introduction of trivial content. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:41, 27 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Wikipedia is non monetary summary. All latest works & accolades are missing from his Wikipedia. Are you involved in monetary benefits to remove his contents? BrightVC123 (talk) 22:00, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Again: your edits were reverted as they were lacking references to reliable sources.
 * Funny that you ask me about whether I would have a financial interest in editing the article Vachirawit Chivaaree when you didn't respond to my question about that yet.
 * I don't recollect having made any edits to that article prior to today, and from my contribution history in various topic areas it should be clear that I have nothing to gain from this specific article. Your history of contributions looks rather focused on one topic though.. – NJD-DE (talk) 22:12, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
 * @BrightVC123: On your talk page you are claiming that you followed all policies and guidelines and used reliable sources. Looking at section Public Image, Advocacy & Brand, where can I find them ? – NJD-DE (talk) 22:15, 27 June 2022 (UTC)

@NJD-DE I just saw this this thread, NJD-De the user just wanted to know why his edits where removed you could have just explained to him that if he wants to add information he should provide references to reliable sources! But the way you responded “What do you mean when you say you made "edits for Bright" ? Are you acting on his behalf? Do you receive financial compensations for your contributions?" Considering it's a new user, it was like you were attacking him/her, just a friendly advise next time when a user ask why you removed his edits just explain why Have a nice day Rebel Agent (talk) 03:35, 28 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Rebel Agent, thanks for stepping by and your feedback. Reading my post from earlier again, I do realize it was not very welcoming and can be perceived as too harsh. If BrightVC123 did indeed feel offended by it, then I hereby do wish to express my apologies.
 * Rebel Agent, I would like to invite you however to consider not only the conversation here but the full situation. Plenty explanation had been given about why edits were reverted in edit summaries and on their talk page already. Furthermore, it is a normal thing to ask new editors about paid-editing, especially when they only have one area of interest, their username bears the name of the article subject and attempts at whitewashing that article are made.
 * Cheers, – NJD-DE (talk) 04:05, 28 June 2022 (UTC)

Also, to make paper even if it is recycled paper, that paper has to be made from trees that have to be cut at one point of time. That means, even if you are using recycled paper, trees were cut at some point in time.

Copyright
The entry I made was clearly cited with the url which you got from the entry itself. All it lacked was it was not put in inverted commas. I am sure you must have written papers in your education. It is a simple mistake. But you acting as if it is a flagrant abuse of copyright is just plainly insulting when you could have simply corrected it with an edit or posted a simple message to edit it. You did not. Dove642 (talk) 22:47, 26 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Nope, the edit didn't just lack apostrophes. Extensive verbatim quotations of copyrighted text are prohibited per Wikipedia's guidelines and policies on copyright. Also it is bad editing to just copy-paste. – NJD-DE (talk) 15:59, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for educating me on Wikipedia policies! Dove642 (talk) 02:04, 29 July 2022 (UTC)

Doxxing
https://www.dictionary.com/browse/dox

What you are trying to do is potentially illegal. Dove642 (talk) 22:57, 26 July 2022 (UTC)


 * I haven't tried nor did I do something illegal. It's quite obvious you were editing with multiple accounts as well as logged out, and added citations to material written by yourself. – NJD-DE (talk) 16:02, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Did it occur to you that a person might create an account using real information more than a decade ago and then create an account for privacy reasons just as you created with a username NJD-DE. That does not tell me your name, does it? So, you want privacy but another does not deserve it? You actually doxed me. That is what you did. Unfortunately, it is against Wikipedia policies - Harassment You should ask yourself if you will do that to another person if that person is close to you.
 * What you did is, "rules for thee not for me" behavior. Dove642 (talk) 02:11, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I suggest you contact an admin privately regarding this matter.
 * I would like to remind you though that the first edit you made was asking another user why a previous edit of yours to the USPS article was reverted. And quite a bunch of your edits with this account cite opinion-pieces/articles published by the same person. – NJD-DE (talk) 14:50, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Dont you sidetrack on the fact that you doxxed me which is against Wikipedia guidelines as posted earlier.
 * You should be banned from Wikipedia and for retaliation as well for removing my edits. And the previous wikipedia editor was a difficult person just as you are but then I was inexperienced and a novice. What original research do you have? I do. And they are based on calculations based on data from government websites.
 * Do you really think all those news sites posted those articles without checking facts or making math calculations? Every news site whether big or small checks facts and calculations. Below are NYTimes guidelines and other news sites also follow those kind of principles.
 * Here is NYTimes editorial guidelines regarding their guest essays or opinion articles -
 * https://help.nytimes.com/hc/en-us/articles/115014809107-How-to-submit-an-Op-Ed-article - "Fact-checking: Before we publish your article, it must be fact-checked. If an essay is accepted for publication, the guest writer will be asked to submit an annotated copy of the essay, listing the relevant sources for each factual assertion.
 * We focus our checking on verifiable facts. For example, the number of Americans without health insurance, the median household income or the date a law was enacted.
 * We also investigate broader factual assertions (“No one named to the court in the postwar period was as conservative as Justice Scalia or as liberal as Justice Brennan,” “Laos is one of the world’s most corrupt nations”) that may need to be qualified, explained or stated with greater precision or nuance.
 * We look at the factual evidence cited to verify that the methodology is sound and that the data is presented with precision and balance.
 * We prefer primary sources (an N.I.H. research paper) to secondary ones (a news article about the paper’s findings).
 * If we determine that a particular fact cannot be verified, we will not publish it. "
 * Dove642 (talk) 04:24, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Again, I recommend you to contact an admin regarding this matter in case you feel treated unjustly for spamming links to these opinion pieces. – NJD-DE (talk) 09:01, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * You should be ashamed to retaliate against people and doxing them. Dove642 (talk) 14:52, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * So, now you are spying on me regarding my earlier edits and my questions of it being reverted. Do you spy on others and their edits as well? Please feel free to post your editorial history. Dove642 (talk) 14:55, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

Talk:Abdolrahman Sarraei
Hello, Njd-de,

If you find a draft on an incorrect page, like an orphaned talk page, please consider moving it to Draft space. Many new editors do not know that Draft space even exists and since they can't create new articles, they put drafts on different pages, like Talk pages or Template pages. It's kinder to move their draft to the correct location rather than tagging it for deletion. You can then tag the redirect for CSD R2 deletion. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 02:38, 28 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Liz, nice to speak with you again. Yes sure, I have done that a couple of times in the past also with worthy drafts. Sometimes content is also created as a template which I then moved to draft space.
 * This one though you will notice is a special case. Draft:Abdolrahman Sarraei has been sysop-salted due to being a sock target (d:Wikidata:Requests for checkuser/Case/KIIFF & Sockpuppet investigations/KIIFF/Archive). – NJD-DE (talk) 02:44, 28 June 2022 (UTC)


 * My timing seems to be terrible. I seem to run a Quarry query for orphaned talk pages 10 minutes after you do! Nice to know though that we are catching these pages. Liz Read! Talk! 23:34, 30 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh I didn't know you are checking for them as well. Good to know.
 * I created my query some weeks ago out of curiosity and to learn how Mediawiki's database is structured, how categories work and so on. Personally I find direct database access very comforting. Especially when a graphical UI doesn't offer wildcard searcher, e.g. for searching similar titles of deleted pages, lists of users with similar usernames.
 * Btw, I now came across an orphaned talk page not by running the query again but good old recent changes: Talk:Origen del meme " sos re lindo basta". – NJD-DE (talk) 00:15, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I wish I knew more about coding but my query was created by another editor. If you look at all of the recent Quarry runs, you can probably see it under "Orphaned talk pages". I'm sure if I was familiar with coding, there's all sorts of cool questions I could ask. Liz Read! Talk! 05:02, 2 July 2022 (UTC)

Raul Yzaguirre page
Hi there. I just added content to Raul Yzaguirre's entry, and it's not showing up as published. I have worked for UnidosUS (previously known as the National Council of La Raza) for 22 years, and a colleague and I were tasked with updating Raul's information under an extremely tight deadline since the press is likely looking on Wikipedia for soundbites. Yesterday the White House announced that Raul will be receiving the Presidential Medal of Freedom on Thursday July 7. I am new to Wiki editing, but I did my best to at least hyperlink to the appropriate sources. The majority of the content I added is from internal institutional, historical documents and not necessarily "published."

Help! Wordsinging (talk) 00:34, 3 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello Wordsinging. Thanks for reaching out to me about your edits.
 * Your edits have been removed as they introduced promotional material without references to reliable, independent sources. Wikipedia is not a place to publish own research. Instead articles here should sum up what has already been reported elsewhere.
 * Would you mind clarifying who tasked you up to update the article ? – NJD-DE (talk) 00:56, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Of course. And thank you for your quick response! First let me clarify. Raul Yzaguirre was the President of NCLR for 30 years, and the organization's name was changed to UnidosUS under Raul's successor, Janet Murguia. I served under both.
 * I was given the task by Darcy Eischens, Deputy Vice President of Policy and Development (UnidosUS), and Charles Kamasaki, who recently retired as the Senior Cabinet Advisor (UnidosUS) after more than 40 years at the organization, and who previously was the Executive Vice President of the organization working alongside both Raul and Janet. However, he has extended his tenure to shepherd Raul's nomination for the Medal of Freedom through to its end.
 * The information I added is about Raul's accomplishments, which have been well-documented for decades in the press, books, journals, and so on. I want to do the right thing and will read through the information in the links you included, but unfortunately I am not in a position to take on archival research at this time.
 * I am at a loss on how to manage this before the awards ceremony next week.
 * Many thanks. Wordsinging (talk) 01:59, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
 * @Wordsinging: Ok, I was asking about it as there are some disclosure requirements in case of editing in a conflict-of-interest field or when edits are made with indirect/direct financial compensation.
 * I do believe you of course that the accomplishments mentioned in the article were not made up by you. However, there really is a need to back the edits up with reliable sources I am afraid. Books and journals are great of course but online news reporting by reliable outlets is fine as well by the way.
 * Is UnidosUS going to release a press statement/press kit? Once news outlets pick up on the story, I am confident other editors will come along and edit the article as well. – NJD-DE (talk) 02:15, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I will log off for today but happy to answer your questions tomorrow. In the meantime you might also be able to find help and advice at the WP:TEAHOUSE.– NJD-DE (talk) 02:20, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I understand. I guess I have a lot of reading ahead of me so I understand this whole Wiki process. Thanks again. The press release went out yesterday. https://www.unidosus.org/press-releases/raul-yzaguirre-presidential-medal-of-freedom/ Wordsinging (talk) 02:26, 3 July 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Talk:Burmaculex antiquus
Hello Njd-de. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Talk:Burmaculex antiquus, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Hi Njd-de. You are right that the talk page was previously about an article that never existed and just contained the text "Common tate w". A simple WP:BEFORE returns the now article Burmaculex antiquus. . Thank you. Shirt58 (talk) 10:24, 23 July 2022 (UTC)

Shay Wize
Hi, how are you?


 * 1) You deleted content such as that he reached Shazam top 50 chart, and I don't really understand why. Do charts don't matter? I provided a link to this from "The Jerusalem Post".
 * 2) I provided a link to an interview in Maariv (newspaper) . It's a big newspaper, and they don't interview anyone.
 * 3) He released an album, and got coverage from the press (radio, TV shows and newspaper), and sold out his first album.
 * 4) A lot of Israeli musicians that have much less coverage and they are much less popular did got a value in wiki...
 * 5) In Wiki in Hebrew he did got a value שי וואייז

It meets all Wikipedia requirements... So why do you think he still doesn't deserve value in wiki?

Dark Angel23490 (talk) 20:17, 26 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello Dark Angel23490,
 * the users reviewing your draft have left plenty of comments already. The article as it stands now doesn't have enough references to reliable sources that would demonstrate notability. Furthermore, it is not enough that a source mentions his name. The sources must verify what you write in the draft. – NJD-DE (talk) 15:47, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
 * But it does... In Hebrew. The age, the album, top 50 on Shazam all that is in there in the biggest newspaper in Israel... :O Dark Angel23490 (talk) 18:18, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Take for instance this version of the draft and the Haaretz reference. Where does the reference mention that he left Ramat Gan in 2010 and "began producing his first album"? – NJD-DE (talk) 18:39, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

Svenland
Thanks for stopping by the Svenland article. I was just reviewing it and started a discussion with the creator on the article talk page. Bruxton (talk) 18:42, 30 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Bruxton, sorry for my interfering there. I noticed your talk page message at Talk:List of micronations and a quick search didn't show anything credible that Svenland is a real thing. That's why I tagged it for speedy deletion as a hoax. If you find something indicating otherwise, pls let me know and feel free to remove the speedy tag. – NJD-DE (talk) 18:45, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I was just looking now. I think you are right that it is a hoax. Good job. Bruxton (talk) 18:47, 30 July 2022 (UTC)

About Bright Vachirawit's Topic
It's not about a promotion or advertising. It's an achievement. He's the first Brand Ambassador in South Asia-Pacific which many medias around the world posted about it (e.g., https://hypebeast.com/2022/7/burberry-brand-ambassador-bright-vachirawit-2022-news) It's a big news in case you are unaware of. BrightInter (talk) 17:40, 1 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi BrightInter. The language is promotional, e.g. "Vachirawit is the first Thai male artist who received such an honor from a Global Brand". It's not an award or a title, it's a job. Also it's too detailled, e.g. "He modeled for Burberry several times and often wore Burberry's total looks to official events, including various award ceremonies" and the details about the products. Last but not least the phrase about the other companies he has worked for is unsourced.
 * Your edits seem to focus on this single article. Is it possible you may have a conflict of interest? – NJD-DE (talk) 17:46, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * It's written in the Thai news and I just translated what they said. I can edit it if you think it's too much, but you can't just take the whole part out and the first time you delete the former text which have ben there for over a year. BrightInter (talk) 17:51, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * We have entire articles that are deleted years later for being too promotional. Just because content was part of Wikipedia for a while doesn't mean that it was supposed to be there in the first place.
 * If the source describes this in the same manner as if someone was awarded with the Nobel Peace Prize then you might want to question and reconsider using that source.
 * Please also respond on my question regarding a potential conflict of interest. Thanks. – NJD-DE (talk) 17:58, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry for my late reply. Earlier you deleted the part that related to his work about F4 Thailand, but now it has been brought back, so it is alright now. I understand the part that you think what I wrote may be considered as a potential conflict of interest. So, what you edited and mentioned him as a BA of Burberry is fine. BrightInter (talk) 05:03, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia editing
I here by declare that I am not being directly or indirectly compensated for my edits. Those removed contents were unwanted and not relevant for that page. Chandana2327 (talk) 03:51, 13 August 2022 (UTC)


 * The controversy section on Vachirawit Chivaaree is "unwanted" by whom ? – NJD-DE (talk) 10:59, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
 * The controversy section on Vachirawit Chivaaree is written biasedly. Some sources are based on biased translation like in this image: https://supchina.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/91e77980ly1gdpyxguug7j20k5168wgm.jpg and it was ridiculous that that section is the longest section among all others, even more than career, while the whole controversy thing started from a group of anti fans who got hurt after discovering that he had had a girlfriend and wanted to ruin their relationship (and got successful). We fans will be appreciate if Wikipedia allowed us to edit or make it more brief than that in the current version. BrightInter (talk) 05:12, 21 August 2022 (UTC)

Using khamakshop.com as a reference
Hello, Why should the source not be inappropriate? The formation is accurate and correct and is provided by researchers in the field of clothing and skilled tailors.Thanks--Iampharzad (talk) 23:09, 28 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Iampharzad. khamakshop.com is a webshop and nothing indicates that it would be a reliable source. Adding the same unreliable source in multiple articles may come across as spamming. You mention something about researchers. Could you detail please where on the webshop site you found information regarding their sources? Thanks. – NJD-DE (talk) 23:34, 28 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello, Njd-de You are right, but the information on the site is completely correct. In some situations, due to the lack of information on sites like Britannica or Iranica, we have to rely on these sources.
 * Now I added another source too which is accurate. Thanks--Iampharzad (talk) 00:42, 29 August 2022 (UTC)
 * In the situation of a lack of reliable sources the default is not to use unreliable ones. The default is not to include the information then.
 * Please let me know where on the website it says something about their sources. Until then the reference should be removed.
 * Repeated usage of the same unreliable links may be seen as WP:REFSPAM. – NJD-DE (talk) 08:56, 29 August 2022 (UTC)

Power House Rugby Union Football Club
HI, thank you for reviewing my first attempt at a wiki page. I was wondering if there was more specific advice you could give. I am at a little bit of a loss as i copied the source from four other clubs in the same competition who had wiki pages approved so thought i would be closer to the mark, thanks in adavice Kiwiwomble (talk) 22:28, 12 September 2022 (UTC)


 * apologies, i hadnt see the rest of the message you sent, i thought referencing our (i work for the club) homepage for the history section would be ok, i will look to re write in my own words. did my sandbox need to be deleted though, thats just for me to work on isn't it, not public? now i'll have to re do everything rather than editing the text Kiwiwomble (talk) 22:35, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Kiwiwomble, unfortunately the content had to be removed from the draft as it was copied from a site protected by copyright. You are right that the sandbox is for you to work on texts. It is however public and as such copyrighted material can't exist there either :/
 * My experience is that it can be easier starting with new text from scratch rather than trying to rewrite an existing one. Our brains tend to stick with words and expressions we read.. So my recommendation would be to look what has been published in independent, reliable sources and start from there. The idea of Wikipedia articles is that they sort of sum up was has been reported already in reliable sources, and not just what the subject of the article would want others to know.
 * You mentioned you work for the club, I will post a message on your talkpage with helpful links how to handle editing with a conflict of interest and how to disclose paid editing.
 * Let me know in case you have any questions. Alternatively, you can also get help from other experienced Wikipedians at the teahouse. – NJD-DE (talk) 23:05, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
 * thanks, that makes sense, all much more complicated than i thought given some pages ive seen including the other team ones i used as inspiration, will try again Kiwiwomble (talk) 23:58, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Dear Njd-de Looks like you add a speedily deletion on my article. Did I create it without building encyclopedia? Writinginfont (talk) 21:43, 24 September 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi Writinginfont. I nominated that article for speedy deletion as no sources are cited that would demonstrate notability. Also when I did a quick search online I couldn't find anything. There needs to be significant, independent coverage in reliable sources demonstrating notability in order to justify a Wikipedia article. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:49, 24 September 2022 (UTC)

New Sock
Have a look at https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Mcbath. Joined 11 days ago and behaving on very suspiciois ground. They moved the page Shahi Kabir to mainspace and nominated it for deletion.

 * Hi, sorry wasn't online here in a while. Thanks for reaching out to me.
 * I see what you are saying and opened a report at Sockpuppet investigations/Phoenix man. You mentioned Draft:Mallu Traveler specifically. If you have some further evidence, please mention it at the sockpuppet investigation. The only hard evidence I found was the creation history of (Draft:)Shahi Kabir. – NJD-DE (talk) 21:44, 16 October 2022 (UTC)

Does this look familiar?
Hi Njd-de, I just declined Draft:Niraj Vikram and got a tingly feeling in my spidey sense. A little bit of digging found a report by you in this SPI archive, as well as this AfD. Do you remember if this draft is about the same person? I mean, the mere creation of a spammy article with a title that multiple socks have been creating spammy articles recently is a suspicious on its own, and the draft creator has been pretty relentless about resubmitting, creating copies, etc. But it might be some other Niraj Vikram; this one is touted more as a script writer than as an actor (though the draft says that he has also been an actor), and it looks like there's been some variant spellings (Vikram / Vikarm) in the creations by Bikrookanpurgangster socks. Best, --bonadea contributions talk 13:40, 21 October 2022 (UTC)


 * Time for a self-trout – I never checked the current SPI page for Bikrookanpurgangster. The creator of the current Draft:Niraj Vikram has already been reported there.

Advice and question
Hello, and thank you for your advice. Although I'm a newbie to starting a Wiki page as well as editing an article, I've been an avid reader and big supporter of Wikipedia. I'm a bit stumped on how to start my own page. I believe that my professional career and personal life does merit an article with my name. I found it difficult to get started based on the step-by-step info available. Is it acceptable for someone to create an article in their own name? A colleague of mine said that he did and was successful. Should I have someone else who suggested that I have a Wiki page begin it for me to edit?

Also, in regards to the six month timeline to edit the article or risk losing the information, I did make an edit, albeit small, about a month ago. It was grammatical. Does that not count as a sufficient edit?

Any advice on this would be a big help.

Thank you,

Hello!
Hi, Njd-de,

I was just looking at some old drafts that are due to expire today and noticed that you had reviewed a lot of them but I hadn't seen you active on Wikipedia in quite some time. I hope everything is okay and you are just busy with off-wiki life. I know that I have taken several long breaks and it really helped clear and refresh my mind when I did decide to return to active editing. So, just a message to say that I hope you are well and that you are missed! Take care, Liz <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">Read! Talk! 23:36, 6 May 2023 (UTC)
