Questions about copyrighted work
Hello Nosebagbear, thank you for taking the time to review and leave comments on my talk page for my submission. I leave the comments posted by you here so it's easier for you to see;

This is regarding: Oppa Teach Korean submission

- Start

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted because it included copyrighted content, which is not permitted on Wikipedia.

This submission appears to be taken from https://www.facebook.com/pg/oppateachkorean/about. Wikipedia cannot accept material copied from elsewhere, unless it explicitly and verifiably has been released to the world under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license or into the public domain and is written in an acceptable tone—this includes material that you own the copyright to. You should attribute the content of a draft to outside sources, using citations, but copying and pasting or closely paraphrasing sources is not acceptable. The entire draft should be written using your own words and structure. Note to reviewers: do not leave copyright violations sitting in the page history. Please follow the instructions here.

- End

I have 2 questions to ask you;

1) The reason why I linked it to https://www.facebook.com/pg/oppateachkorean/about, is because another link which has more creditability is from a video source on a news company website. The video + what was mention in the facebook about page is the same. Should i just link the video sources?

2) I can't seem to find the submission anymore, it must have been deleted. Are you able to help me rollback or something so that I can relink the references?

Thanks for taking the time to read and help. If there is anything I can do, please let me know. LearnKoreanToday (talk) 16:51, 6 January 2019 (UTC)

[Update] I realised that i could ask for permission to use the content and the page could be re-added back. I have already contacted the copyright owner, and send the email to the submission team on wiki. I do not have any further questions, but just informing you that it's okay now. Thank you!

Your misunderstanding of copyrights and the law of public domain
Hello,

There is no copyright on works of government entities in the US and they are automatically in the public domain. This applies to your gracious but mistaken efforts of my work at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Ives_-_Henry_murders

I hope you will correct your mistakes.

Leidseplein (talk) 17:08, 13 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Attribution should be stated in-article, usually beneath the references. However only documentations created by the federal government are automatically in that category - states vary in set-up.


 * A look at the primary source's copyright log states "All portions of this Site and its Materials, including entries, site design, logo, title, graphics, software, text and functionality of the search, and browse and linking methods, are copyright and trademark protected under U.S. and International law and may not be reproduced, duplicated, copied, sold, or otherwise used for any commercial purpose." "No image or any part of this Site by its appearance here should be construed as within the public domain.".


 * As such the copyright investigation state it is in now is probably most appropriate. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:21, 13 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Genius, I mean Nosebagbear, if I put on my website that "Nothing here may be used without my permission and is copyrighted" this does not mean that nothing may be used without my permission and is copyrighted.  The words on a website are not correctly used as evidence to prove that what the words claim is true.  The law on copyright controls.  Not what is written on a website.  You can cite the relevant portions of copyright law but merely repeating here what another misinformed person wrote only perpetuates your errors and worse, prohibits the world from free access to uncopyrighted material  all because your point here is, apparently, to vandalise and exert teenage power.  Please correct your vandalsim.  Leidseplein (talk) 17:47, 13 January 2019 (UTC)

Questions about my article ( Previously denied due to copyright )
Hello,

Previously I sent an update but you have archive my message so i have to create a new topic. For my Submission, I was denied because of copyright issue which was not done correctly on my side. I have already submitted permission request approved from the owner and the copyright owner have included " CC BY-SA 3.0 " in the page itself to mark that he has accepted it.

However it has been more than 1 week since my permission email to wiki team but they have not replied and i can see that all trace of my page was removed. Therefore, I have recreated it.

However it seems like my article is not considered a draft anymore. Can you help me to add the line to resubmit it to approval?

 * - hi there, unfortuantely your draft seems to have, again, been deleted - this time for a promotional issue. There is both a templated and a personal response from the admin on your talk page.


 * Sorry to see this nuisance - it's great to see you go to such efforts and requesting a license change and actually carrying it out. Like the admin, I'm unfortunately unable to do a notability sweep in Korean to see if I could recommend any superior sources than facebook. Nosebagbear (talk) 18:04, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Help with Draft: Ascentium Capital
Hi, thank you for reviewing my draft article and providing suggestions on the Help Desk page. I’m not sure if this was intentional, but my help request on the Help desk page seems to have been removed. I’d like to clear up that I don’t consider myself a paid contributor. I often reference Wikipedia for all sorts of information and that is why I am interested in creating a page for the company that I work at, as I strongly believe it meets notability. I agree with you that being connected to Ascentium Capital can make possible for me to miss coverage on what is important and not, in terms of neutrality. I put a lot of effort into this article, and it would be much appreciated if I can get someone’s help on making this article more neutral. Would you know of a page where I can list the draft article for help on meeting neutrality, similar to the ? IrfanAli512 (talk) 15:38, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Potential copyright material on Draft:Richmond County Country Club (New York)
Thank you for your feedback. I doubt that the golf hole descriptions noted by the New York Tribune in 1901 originated with the paper but came from the golf club, RCCC, itself and were printed by the paper. For instance club membership names holes and the golf course architect or the head golf professional documents a description of a golf hole before construction begins. I am new to Wikipedia and for personal reasons I try to avoid using copyright material. Thanks for your help and I appreciate all comments and corrections.

About the article Draft:Dagilėlis
Dear Nosebagbear,

Thank you for your comment which you have left on reviewing article "Dagilėlis" (00:43, 19 January 2019 (UTC). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Dagil%C4%97lis

I have reorganised the article and based it on your comment: deleted less significant achievements and wroted more choral history.

Ethics
Hi Nosebagbear, and thanks for your comment on the help desk thread re ethics. I am aware that some work can be pre-cleared in some institutions. Hopefully the work being discussed fits that category. I have seen cases where work should have been to a HREC and wasn't and that led to major problems with publication / degrees, so I wanted to make sure that the editor in this case has checked out and followed all appropriate procedures. I don't see anything obviously problematic in what is described, but I have seen cases where I thought the issues were obvious but the researchers involved did not, so I now take a cautious line on these sorts of questions. Cheers! :) EdChem (talk) 01:52, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
 * - indeed, I can't definitely see that knowing if your work is pre-cleared should be a fairly fundamental fact. I mean, for us, it was the second thing we were told and the conditions for it, so clearly the importance on the division is fairly major. Nosebagbear (talk) 09:19, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I know of a case (some years back) where a thesis for a Masters went for examination and an examiner added a comment in their report that the HREC clearance should be mentioned in the methods chapter and the approval letter added as an appendix. Astonishingly (as it was not a risk-free study involving humans), neither the student nor the supervisor had considered the need for clearance nor consulted the HREC.  What to do when faced with a completed work that was far-from-certain to have been approved in the first place and a student's degree hinges on the decision – not an easy one, especially when the prime responsibility belongs with the supervisor.  So, I agree, knowing where you stand strikes me as essential.  EdChem (talk) 14:09, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

Scotty T
Hi, just wondering why you approved unsourced birth details on the Scotty T article? I previously removed these as they were cited to Genes Reunited, which is a violation of WP:BLPPRIMARY. However, the edit you approved didn't offer a source at all. Thanks, Nzd   (talk)  05:37, 1 February 2019 (UTC)


 * - sorry, my fault. You're welcome to remove them, or I can do it preferred.

Chocolatine VS pain au chocolat
I made an edit which was apparently not legitimate in your perception. The fact is that a chocolatine and a pain au chocolat (chocolate bread) are two very different baked goods and the terms are not interchangeable. Chocolate bread is literally bread with chocolate in it. It is the product of a baker, the dough used is bread dough and the cooking method used is for bread. Then you have a Chocolatine which is a croissant with chocolate. The dough recipe is different from the one used to make bread and the cooking method is completely different than the one used to make bread. I suggest you quickly research the difference between bread and pastries.

Can you say bread meat instead of meat pie ? Of course not, well this is the same exact issue. A mere lack of knowledge on the subject of pastry and bakery. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thepastrymasta (talk • contribs) 18:27, 3 February 2019 (UTC)


 * - the edit was made because you were asserting that in an article titled "pain au chocolat", all the subsidary information should refer to them as chocolatine - which would contradict your statement, however supportive a reference you might use. It also was breaking the picture (and not putting in a new one), and some other formatting issues.


 * The article could well be wrong on the issue (it's hardly my specialist subject), but the logical thing would be either to create a separate paragraph explaining the difference. It might even require a separate article. Additionally, a quick look round at a few more reliable sources indicate that though your separation might be the case in France, other countries have fairly firmly adopted them as being synonymous. Wikipedia generally goes with the majority opinion on naming issues.


 * This type of complicated, interesting, issue has a logical first place - the article's talk page.

Draft:Sanjay Chhimpa (Artist)
Hii Nosebagbear, It is mainly connected to important points of the singer's (Criteria for musicians and ensembles) 2,4,5,10,11,12, and the singer has played the role of singer in many Bollywood films of India, which is the main form It is clear that you are requested to carefully look at all the points and publish the draft. Respect & Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teamsgnr123 (talk • contribs) 13:10, 4 February 2019 (UTC)


 * - You haven't stated (and critically, supported with reliable references) details in the draft that support points: 2, 4, 5, 11 & 12. Point 10, as noted in MUSICBIO, is a secondary criteria that doesn't necessarily warrant more than a mention in the film's articles. This is particularly true here, as Sanjay is only listed as a secondary singer of one song in each film.


 * In any case, if you were going to rely on point 10, then you need to provide reliable sourcing for his performances in them. The reviewers and I have previously set out that ImDB and Wikipedia are not reliable.Nosebagbear (talk) 18:41, 4 February 2019 (UTC)


 * - Hii,It is mainly connected to important points 2,4 of the Criteria for musicians and ensembles, and the singer has made national music tours, which clearly shows in the reference point number 2,3, well-known in point number 2 The music company (Sony Music) is an invitation to the national tour and it has been published in the main newspaper in point 3.

Hii ,Draft has been resubmit with reference again but it has not been published by reviewing the draft.It is mainly connected to important points 2,4 of the Criteria for musicians and ensembles, and the singer has made national music tours and worked with international music company (sony entertainment pvt. Ltd.). You see again and publish it. Respect and thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teamsgnr123 (talk • contribs) 02:02, 8 February 2019 (UTC)


 * - just resubmitting it doesn't mean it will be instantly reviewed. It will get reviewed as if you'd submitted a new draft.


 * Point 2 refers to national charting. Point 4 refers to an international or national music tour. You need to include this into the draft content, or no reviewer will know to judge it off that Nosebagbear (talk) 08:42, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Hii In the draft as mentioned by you, the singer's live show and details of the facts have been described, thank you very much for this. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Teamsgnr123 (talk • contribs) 11:27, 8 February 2019 (UTC)


 * - you will need to specifically reference that point, since it's the only possibility to demonstrate notability that I've seen. It will also need to be a proper national tour, rather than just a couple in different locations.


 * Once you've done that, it will be reviewed in the proper style - I've participated sufficiently that I couldn't neutrally review it. Nosebagbear (talk) 12:04, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

Hello ,


 * News
 * The WMF has announced that Google Translate is now available for translating articles through the content translation tool. This may result in an increase in machine translated articles in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to use the tag and gently remind (or inform) editors that translations from other language Wikipedia pages still require attribution per WP:TFOLWP.


 * Discussions of interest
 * Two elements of CSD G6 have been split into their own criteria: R4 for redirects in the "File:" namespace with the same name as a file or redirect at Wikimedia Commons (Discussion), and G14 for disambiguation pages which disambiguate zero pages, or have "(disambiguation)" in the title but disambiguate a single page (Discussion).
 * db-blankdraft was merged into G13 (Discussion)
 * A discussion recently closed with no consensus on whether to create a subject-specific notability guideline for theatrical plays.
 * There is an ongoing discussion on a proposal to create subject-specific notability guidelines for chemicals and organism taxa.


 * Reminders
 * NPR is not a binary keep / delete process. In many cases a redirect may be appropriate. The deletion policy and its associated guideline clearly emphasise that not all unsuitable articles must be deleted. Redirects are not contentious. See a classic example of the templates to use. More templates are listed at the R template index. Reviewers who are not aware, do please take this into consideration before PROD, CSD, and especially AfD  because not even all admins are aware of such policies, and many NAC do not have a full knowledge of them.

Draft:Matt_Farley declination
Howdy Nosebagbear, my Draft for Matt Farley was declined a few days ago and you mentioned you might be able to help. "@TownesVP: - the reviewer may be right that the individual doesn't pass standard musician notability, however there's an interesting case to be made that his prolific work or spotify work might qualify him under the general notability guideline for his newsworthiness. I'm currently very busy, but I'm interested to see other reviewers' thoughts. I'll be free from Thursday onwards and if no-one else has, I'll take a look then (feel free to poke me on Friday - just hit the talk in my username!). Nosebagbear (talk) 11:55, 25 March 2019 (UTC)"

I followed up with the editor that originally declined it, and his reply was as follows:

"TownesVP, if you can provide the best WP:THREE articles that show his individual notability and not that of the bands, then the reviewers can focus on that to see if he passes notability. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:07, 26 March 2019 (UTC) TownesVP, it still has a huge number of non-notable tracks and album contributions. That list needs to be removed. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:08, 26 March 2019 (UTC)"

I was hoping you could help me assess what press articles would be best to use to prove Matt Farley's individual notability.

His press page lists a ton of things here: https://www.moternmedia.com/press/

I originally used the following references: "This Genius Lunatic Has Recorded 16,000 Songs About Everything from Poop to Ellen Degeneres". noisey.vice.com. "Spotify: how a busy songwriter you've never heard of makes it work for him". theguardian.com. "An Inside Look at Matt Farley, The 19,000 Song Guy". considertheconsumer.com. "Matt Farley's IMDB Bio". IMDb.com. "This guy wrote 88 terribly awesome songs about N.J. towns. Have a listen". nj.com. "Matt Farley continues to exist: How one man is bringing quantity and quality to Spotify". substreammagazine.com. "Moes Haven, seriously". hippopress.com. "A glimpse inside the mind of the world's most prolific musician". statepress.com. "THE MUSICIAN WHO'S GAMING SEARCH ENGINES TO ACTUALLY MAKE MONEY". wired.com. "The Best Music of Matt Farley (In Five Albums)". filmtrap.com. "Approved: Motern Media Songs Of 2015". completemusicupdate.com. "Social Media Detox:The Album". medium.com. "THE BIG HEIST STEALS OUR HEARTS, MINDS AND SOULS WITH DEBUT MO75". aftermoviediner.com. "IN MY EARS: MATT FARLEY". prospectornow.com.

I know The Guardian is listed under acceptable notability, but I'm not sure what else to use. Any help is very much appreciated!

Thanks for your consideration. TownesVP (talk) 17:39, 29 March 2019 (UTC)


 * - hi there. I did of course ask you to ping me on Friday - I was somewhat distracted on my "day off" by walking 12km house-hunting (unsuccessfully), but I'll attempt to give a brief look now.


 * First up is a review of whether the sources are generally reliable (as opposed to your specific articles)


 * Wired, Medium, noisey can all be reasonable sources - it depends on who's written it. Some have staff editors, which makes it very clear, others are harder to detect. They're confusing sources (in general that is) because not all of their articles have editorial review.


 * I can't make a judgement on substream - it looks fairly professional, so it wouldn't be shocking for it to be a good source.


 * nj.com looks promising as a general source, as a newspaper


 * The others probably are not so good.


 * Next up is how to judge a specific source


 * Rule out everything where there aren't at least three paragraphs that are not quotes or indirect quotes "He said this" etc.


 * That should give a general filtering of sources and get you on your way. WP:THREE is a good method, but I'd suggest 4 best sources. Nosebagbear (talk) 22:28, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for your response and sorry to hear about your unsuccessful house-hunt!

In response to your suggestion, I have a few things that I think meet the criteria. Would you mind checking them out and letting me know your take?

Draft for Pall Mall Barbers Waiting for Review: 4 months
What happened to you? You reviewed my draft for "Richard Marshall"... suggested I do an article on the business instead of the individual (which I did)... but then just nothing in spite of multiple attempts to reach out to you regarding the article. I believe that... at this point... with sources that include direct references in People Magazine, GQ, the Daily Mail, and The Telegraph... as well as a visit from Price William of England... the article more than surpasses the "Notability" guideline... but I can't get anyone to look at it. All I got was a kneejerk rejection of my first draft. (Which I still think was questionable given the fact that this is a retail chain and you can't really treat it as if it's the house that Lincoln was born in.... You kind of have to judge it by the standards of other retailers that have also passed the Notability guideline. Even then... my article is better sourced.) Now all the sources and the writing have improved. Would you please have a look at it? Thedavidshow (talk) 11:22, 8 April 2019 (UTC)


 * - hello, I've just approved it. It is still at risk on a notability basis - in terms of articles actually talking about the barbers themselves there's a whole lot of reliable sources that are marginal on Sig Cov - a similar issue to coverage on Marshall: the writing is split between owner, business, products etc.


 * I felt the sourcing was deep enough to warrant letting the page patrollers and community take a look at it - it's a really good article, so it would be a shame to lose it. I guess we shall see what the thoughts are.


 * Cheers, Nosebagbear (talk) 21:10, 12 April 2019 (UTC)

Decora (Musician) Article Draft
Hi,

I'm new to wikipedia. Just trying to create an article for a musician friend. This is my first one. He's an independent artist (under no music label). Currently releasing all albums through CD-Baby distribution.

You noted the article needed "A brief look-over I did 2 days ago suggested that your draft was on the brink of musical notability - if you can find that source that I asked for, that'd be great!"

I'm not sure where to grab this source you're mentioning. The closest thing is news articles mentioning the various albums he's released / worked on. There isn't much out there about his tour dates, etc.

Please assist. I'd like to get as much in order as possible for this article to launch seamlessly.

Thanks! -Rob — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rob-ALVB (talk • contribs) 15:19, 26 April 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, - there may not be a secondary source about his international tour dates. I suggested it because I felt the current sources about his actual music weren't sufficient to demonstrate notability (just). However, an international tour is also enough to prove notability - and it only needs one secondary source to prove it's actually happening for that to be enough - but if it doesn't exist then obviously that advice isn't much use, it's just that usually an international tour picks up an independent source sooner or later.

Hi, you questioned the title of the Kurdish Hunger Strike page.

Could the page be called 'Kurdish Hunger Strikes 2018 - 2019' instead?

Re: ping
Re: this, replying here because I want the DRV to focus on the article and often excessive comments from the deleting admin can be distracting: I’ll explain more what I mean. We routinely work under the assumption that BLPs have no clue how Wikipedia works. This is because for most of them it is true. To what degree this matters depends on the case. If it’s a subject of a contentious article giving out their phone number on a talk page, we suppress the content on the assumption that if they knew how Wikipedia worked, they wouldn’t want it out. If there’s a DJ who wants his article up because he thinks it will bring in more business, but he’s borderline notable and it’s likely that the article is going to attract libel concerns for the next decade because he allegedly committed a crime, we assume that he doesn’t realize he’s basically inviting libel to be the first result on google, and we take the future BLP implications seriously despite the subject saying they don’t care. This case isn’t drastic as those, but it is still a concern we should keep in mind: most people don’t realize how search engines or WP work, so there is a danger in assuming they do.That being said, the fact that the subject apparently doesn’t mind and it’s not a hugely significant issue, the concerns are much less then they would have been if we had no indication either way. It doesn’t mean that we don’t still consider them, but they are lessoned to a great extent when weighing all the factors. I hope that clarifies my view. TonyBallioni (talk) 00:59, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

 * - I generally work my way roughly down the backlog order, and specifically don't take review requests except where I've committed to one. Most reviewers are of a similar mindset - with the backlog, we're trying to at least cover those who have been waiting more than 8 weeks.


 * If you absolutely need to try to get it reviewed quicker, then perhaps the Russia wikiproject's talk page Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Russia might have a reviewer in its number who would be best equipped to appreciate your sourcing as well. Good luck with it. Nosebagbear (talk) 17:41, 7 May 2019 (UTC)

Pay & Allowances ...
Hi, thanks for the helpful & precise suggestions.

Thereafter, I had a live-chat online, and also browsed through the talk pages of certain Editors; I found that the approach of Wikipedia is quite the opposite of what we (the Editors of International Research Journals) insist upon -- we focus on 'primary' research, precision, accuracy, Citation Index/ Impact Factor, etc; and we look up Dictionaries for the correct meaning of words & phrases, and trust Encyclopaedias as reliable sources for the accurate description of a subject/ object/ phenomenon etc. But Wikipedia follows the sole norm of multiplicity of references (whether written by Experts or not) so long as the same are independent of the subject-matter. And one Editor candidly admitted that Wikipedia is "not a reliable source".

So, I have extensively revised the above Draft-Article. Plz review the same, and do the needful. Thanks! Philhorn (talk) 16:11, 10 May 2019 (UTC)


 * We actually have an explanatory supplement on how we aren't a reliable source!


 * "sole norm of multiplicity of references [...] so long as the same are independent of the subject-matter" is not an accurate statement - independence is only one criterion sources demonstrating notability must have.


 * We don't require expert sources (excepting all medical and some scientific articles), however vast numbers of sources are excluded on reliability grounds - of which not trusting the competence of the writer or the editorial review is a common basis. This aspect is somewhat irrelevant to your draft atm.


 * The thing that's killing your draft at this point is that all your sources are now primary (you've actually got rid of the livelaw one that wasn't primary). That needs fixing before any review could succeed.


 * As a side note, don't have things like "currently" "above/below" etc - wikipedia articles last years, they also can have paragraphs moved around or deleted. This means "pointer" sentences must be freestanding (e.g. say "As of May 2019") Nosebagbear (talk) 16:26, 10 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi, Thanks for the Link, plz!


 * I came across at least one Editor who has not passed even High School -- because of Wikipedia’s Policy to appoint & promote Editors/Admins etc on the basis of number of ‘edits’ made by them, and not because he/she is a Subject-Expert or knows what ‘Research’ for a PhD-degree is.


 * When we rely upon primary data (e.g. original research or documents) we are referring to Facts and not Opinions; hence, 'neutrality' is automatically ensured. Moreso, we are not expressing an opinion that the subject-matter is good or bad. This Article refers to and cites primary documents, viz. Government & Court-records (with first hand Links provided to these sources). Secondly, it is the importance of the subject-matter (e.g. when a statute or court lays down a new Law or interpretation that creates a watershed between the new and the old legal thought & systems) then the change is noteworthy, i.e. 'notable'; the mere 'numbers' do not make it notable, e.g. the number of times it has been applauded or criticised by people who are not recognised Subject-Experts.


 * On legal subjects we always refer to proven Facts, applicable Statutory provisions and Judgments delivered by Courts -- "as is". And my Article adheres to that essential norm, plz. BTW, my Articles on Law are published on Editorial pages of leading National Dailies (English), and are read by the Legal Fraternity -- including Judges; some of the principles enunciated by me have also been incorporated in Judgments & Statutes. Best Wishes, Philhorn (talk) 02:39, 11 May 2019 (UTC)


 * - while the "editcountitis" bit of admin-picking is already there, conduct is the usual killer for legitimate admin candidates. Additionally, admins (and other user-rights) almost all are either technical or behavioural oriented (rollback to aid dealing with vandal posts etc). Being a subject-matter expert would be irrelevant for all of these because it's more about ensuring guide functionality rather than creating content (which is something all users have the right to - being an admin would be irrelevant).


 * In response to your second paragraph, as has been said before and is clearly stated on your WP:NOTABILITY page, it's not the dictionary usage, we use it as a word to talk about sufficient coverage - in almost all cases secondary coverage. You can't dictate that your content is or is not notable by Wikipedia standards.


 * I have no doubt that you are a subject-matter expert, but I am endeavouring to explain the way Wikipedia looks at these things. Nosebagbear (talk) 07:19, 11 May 2019 (UTC)


 * - Thanks! I was trying to explore & understand the overall and in-depth working of Wikipedia -- not merely about the publication of one particular Article on its website -- because I had sensed certain systemic errors in its workings; my discussions with you and other Editors confirm that some of these Issues are already known to the Editors, Admins etc -- but they implicitly accept the system without questioning its rationality. BTW, I have added more "secondary" sources to my Article; a similar Article is already live on the website of one of the Co-Founders of Wikipedia. Best Wishes!

Some more questions about the future RTA
Hello Nose. I want to thank you for giving good advice at the optional poll. That was incredibly helpful. I just want to ask you some things: Was my conduct with Cassianto harassment? I was just trying to give friendly advice about his civility. And: other than AFD, what should I do to better increase my chances in the future. I feel like the poll just stated the obvious: You don't have a chance, it said. I said that I didn't on my request. And if any talk page stalkers happen to come by, I don't plan to apply for adminship right now. The absolute minimum time I will try and apply is two years from now. Your help will be very greatly appreciated. Thanks! The Duke 18:19, 26 May 2019 (UTC)


 * - Giving "friendly advice" is like writing a rude sign that says "polite notice" - you can't just say it is. Instead, if you must give advice, do so in a form that makes its readers think it's friendly.


 * Your way of doing so was poor, at best, for several reasons. One big one is that you commented multiple times, doing so multiple times is at best "not friendly" and is easily POINTy. Additionally, chastising another user when you only recently came off a block for a major rules violation is inherently dubious. At a bare minimum, when asked to leave someone's talk page alone, do so.


 * AfD is some general advice I gave just because Cassianto had already pointed out the killer ones - given a need to demonstrate good behaviour for so long, your priority is "be nice and polite" - there's no point targeting holes in your experience at this stage, better to focus on what you enjoy and can be a productive contributor towards.


 * Thanks for the response. Looking back at it, my conduct was quite poor. Though Cassianto telling me to "piss off" didn't help either, but that doesn't excuse my conduct. So (Last ping I promise) I apologise for my frequent ventures to your talk page. I should of just left you alone. A man in a glass house shouldn't throw stones, as they say. I hope all is forgiven. I will now over these next two years and above, improving my conduct, writing good articles. And finally writing that featured list and good article I've been meaning of doing. I hope you both have a good day, Cass, and Nose. Thanks for the comments. It made me realise that my conduct wasn't right. Thanks once again.  The Duke  19:52, 26 May 2019 (UTC)
 * This is the wrong place for this so I'll make this my only comment: I told you to "piss off" as you were openly warring with me on my own talk page. I think you got off pretty lightly.   Cassianto Talk  20:08, 26 May 2019 (UTC)

Hi Nosebagbear! I created an article for Emsisoft, but it was declined. You included the note, "I should note to future reviewers that I specifically opted to decline rather delete, despite its multiple prior deletions, due to the reduction in promotional nature."

New Page Review newsletter July-August 2019


Hello ,

More new features are being added to the feed, including the important red alert for previously deleted pages. This will only work if it is selected in your filters. Best is to 'select all'. Do take a moment to check out all the new features if you have not already done so. If anything is not working as it should, please let us know at NPR. There is now also a live queue of AfC submissions in the New Pages Feed. Feel free to review AfCs, but bear in mind that NPP is an official process and policy and is more important. Articles are still not always being checked thoroughly enough. If you are not sure what to do, leave the article for a more experienced reviewer. Please be on the alert for any incongruities in patrolling and help your colleagues where possible; report patrollers and autopatrolled article creators who are ostensibly undeclared paid editors. The displayed ORES alerts offer a greater 'at-a-glance' overview, but the new challenges in detecting unwanted new content and sub-standard reviewing do not necessarily make patrolling any easier, nevertheless the work may have a renewed interest factor of a different kind. A vibrant community of reviewers is always ready to help at NPR. The backlog is still far too high at between 7,000 and 8,000. Of around 700 user rights holders, 80% of the reviewing is being done by just TWO users. In the light of more and more subtle advertising and undeclared paid editing, New Page Reviewing is becoming more critical than ever. NPR is triage, it is not a clean up clinic. This move feature is not limited to bios so  you may have to slightly re-edit the text in the template before you save the move. Anything that is not fit for mainspace but which might have some promise can be draftified - particularly very poor English and machine and other low quality translations. Remember to use the message feature if you are just tagging an article for maintenance rather than deletion. Otherwise articles are likely to remain perma-tagged. Many creators are SPA and have no intention of returning to Wikipedia. Use the feature too for leaving a friendly note note for  the author of a first article you found well made or interesting. Many have told us they find such comments particularly welcoming and encouraging. Admins are now taking advantage of the new time-limited user rights feature. If you have recently been accorded NPR, do check your user rights to see if this affects you. Depending on your user account preferences, you may receive automated notifications of your rights changes. Requests for permissions are not mini-RfAs. Helpful comments are welcome if absolutely necessary, but the bot does a lot of the work and the final decision is reserved for admins who do thorough research anyway. School and academic holidays will begin soon in various places around the Western world. Be on the lookout for the usual increase in hoax, attack, and other junk pages.
