Reliability of books
Hi again. I'm not aware of any automated tools to assess the reliability of a book. WP:RSP lists sources which are used frequently, and provides useful links to past discussions about them, but that can't possibly cover the countless millions of individual books that are in existence. Assessing the reliability of books against the guidelines at WP:RS is a task that requires editorial judgement, and it isn't always very easy. Sometimes a book might be published by a reputable publisher, but it receives substantial criticism by the scholarly community in the relevant discipline (or is even completely ignored by that discipline), to the extent that it is a fringe view - we treat sources like that differently to regular sources, as described by WP:FRINGE - it's sometimes (not always) worth mentioning in an article, but we make it clear that it's not a mainstream view. Sometimes a publisher will deceptively attempt to make themselves look reputable, when they are not - this is known as predatory publishing, and it can a good deal of background knowledge and investigation to identify it for what it is.

As I said, that isn't the case with the book you linked to - the publishers are quite open about what they do, and there's nothing dishonest or deceptive about it - but it is clear that it's not a useful source for our purposes.

If you come across a book, and want to know whether or not it is reliable, your best bet is to read through WP:RS and think carefully about the points it raises, with regard to your particular book. Factors that I tend to consider include: One example that might be worth mentioning is a book on my shelf about Scottish Tower houses. It is self-published, which is a bad starting point; however, it's written by an academic in the field, and I found that it had been reviewed favourably by an archaeologist from Cambridge University, in one of the UK's leading archaeological journals. Therefore, I am confident using it as a source for articles about historic buildings; however, if it contained information which conflicted with information in a different source, which was published by Oxford University Press and was also by an academic, I would either mention both separately, or if I thought that was going to be too complicated, I would go with the one that isn't self-published, on the basis that it will probably have been reviewed thoroughly prior to publication, and so doesn't just represent one academic's view.
 * Who published it? As I mention above, this isn't a situation where some publishers=good, others=bad, but it's a good starting point and worth knowing. If it's self-published, that immediately raises a red flag, so proceed with caution.
 * Who wrote it? Are they an acknowledged expert in their field - perhaps an experienced academic working at an accredited university in a relevant discipline? Or a well-known and respected journalist with a good track record in this field?
 * Has it been reviewed, and if so, where, and by whom? Were the reviews favourable?

As WP:RS notes, reliability isn't a binary, it's a spectrum. A source could be reliable for one assertion, and unreliable for another, and one source could be more reliable than another - it's all about judgement, you can't automate that (well, not yet...). If this isn't the answer you were hoping for, I hope it's been helpful anyway. Best Girth Summit  (blether)  11:48, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Sir, I sincerely appreciate your time and help. And thanks for everything. Best regards RAJIVVASUDEV (talk) 17:17, 24 October 2020 (UTC)

Copyright issues in Khasa (cloth)
Hello RAJIVVASUDEV. Some of your edits to Khasa (cloth) will be removed, as they appear to have added copyrighted content without evidence that the source material (such as the book The Artisans in 18th Century Eastern India) is in the public domain or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. (To request such a release, see Requesting copyright permission.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from sources to avoid copyright and plagiarism issues.


 * You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
 * Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Close paraphrasing. Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify the information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
 * We have strict guidelines on the usage of copyrighted images. Fair use images must meet all ten of the non-free content criteria in order to be used in articles, or they will be deleted.  All other images must be made available under a free and open license that allows commercial and derivative reuse to be used on Wikipedia.
 * If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a legally designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. Understand, though, that unlike many other sites, where a person can license their content for use there and retain non-free ownership, that is not possible at Wikipedia. Rather, the release of content must be irrevocable, to the world, into the public domain (PD) or under a suitably-free and compatible copyright license. Such a release must be done in a verifiable manner, so that the authority of the person purporting to release the copyright is evidenced. See Donating copyrighted materials.
 * Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you must follow the copyright attribution steps in Translation. See also Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. Thank you. --bonadea contributions talk 11:34, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your guidance and help. I shall be more careful. Regards RAJIVVASUDEV (talk) 02:13, 15 November 2020 (UTC)

November 2020
Your recent editing history at Spandex shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Proposed deletion of Khes


The article Khes has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Fails GNG. Refs do not support anything written in this article"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Roxy the inedible dog . wooF 13:48, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
 * @ Hi! Since you have already cropped the inadequate material from the Khes. Do you want me to develop it further to meet GNG? Or we can remove the above template. The subject has historical relevance and it is notable. Thanks RAJIVVASUDEV (talk) 02:41, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * The subject has not been shown to have notability imho, so no, I will not remove the PROD. I'm not sure if you know this, but you should - you, the main writer of the page, are allowed to remove PROD templates yourself, if you believe the PROD to be unreasonable. just letting you know. -Roxy the inedible dog . wooF 12:57, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * I know that I can remove the template, but i do not want to do it myself. I am assuming good faith, which does not prohibit us from discussing and criticizing each other. Our objective is common. Besides, the roles are different. .The page has almost been rewritten. Please have a look and reconsider. RAJIVVASUDEV (talk) 13:56, 1 December 2020 (UTC)
 * No, our objectives do not match. I am here to improve the project. -Roxy the inedible dog . wooF 14:43, 1 December 2020 (UTC)

 * RAJIVVASUDEV, unfortunately, this nomination does not qualify for DYK. You nominated the article far too late (fivefold expansions for DYK need to be made within seven days), and the article only increased from 5719 prose characters prior to your first edit back in October to 6058 prose characters currently, less than a 6% increase. Since you never did complete the nomination—you didn't even include the required hook, much less complete step 3—I plan to have the nomination page deleted.

Grammar Pedantry Syndrome moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Grammar Pedantry Syndrome, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia).

April 2021
Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Please stop attacking other editors, as you did on Talk:Staple (textiles). If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Comment on content, not on other contributors or people. Accusing others of vandalism when they don't agree with you about article content is not acceptable. bonadea contributions talk 05:44, 30 April 2021 (UTC)

 You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 month for making personal attacks towards other editors. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

 * It does look to me that the block was placed on the wrong editor. The other editor mentioned was extraordinarily provocative, as can clearly be seen from the article talk page.  DGG ( talk ) 07:08, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I would concur with ; I'm having difficulty seeing the basis for this block. 331dot (talk) 08:07, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * , : Special:Diff/1020622316 (you could've just pinged me for an explanation...). Last I checked, saying that another editor needs to be trained like a dog isn't exactly "collegial" (username or no). Roxy might need a block for PAs too, I haven't looked too deeply into their behavior here - the diff I linked is the one that was brought to my attention, and it is sufficiently beyond the pale that I believed a block was appropriate. Since this is the second time I've blocked them for PAs, I upped the duration. If either of you disagrees, then take whatever action you feel is appropriate. GeneralNotability (talk) 14:45, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * The only reason I didn't ping was because I thought you watchlisted this.(and maybe you did) 331dot (talk) 16:46, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
 * , and, I shall be more careful with my words. But Special:Diff is a selective presentation of information supporting the position the other user is advocating. The prohibition against personal attacks applies equally to all wikipedians. WP:IDENTIFYUNCIVIL. Thanks and Regards RV (talk) 10:08, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, but you may not fight personal attacks with personal attacks of your own. 331dot (talk) 10:36, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Agreeing and am embarrassed too. I shall not do this again. Regards RV (talk) 10:49, 3 May 2021 (UTC)


 * I have accordingly unblocked. But be careful--there are some experienced editors here who use their skill to tempt their opponent into doing something blockable.   The way to avoid it is think only about the article, not the editor.   DGG ( talk ) 20:00, 3 May 2021 (UTC)
 * You are right. Thank you very much for your help. Warm regards. RV (talk) 01:34, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Hallo, When you create an article for something like Negro cloth or Medley cloth which is known by alternative names, please provide the reader with a route to get to the article from those other names: make a redirect, or add to a disambiguation page, as appropriate. That helps the readers, and reduces the chance of a future editor carelessly creating a duplicate article at another title. Then also bold the alternative title in the lead sentence, as the target of an incoming redirect. Thanks. Pam D  18:27, 14 May 2021 (UTC)


 * And please also remember to includ reflist after the "References" heading, and to give a geographical context if something is specific to a particular country. Thanks.
 * Hi! I understood it after your edits on the mentioned pages, and I shall take care of the same. Thanks for correcting me. best regards RV (talk) 02:25, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
 * As per advice, I tried it here add to a disambiguation page. Is it ok? Kindly check. Thanks and Regards RV (talk) 05:43, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks. The hatnote you added at Barege was longer and more complicated than needed; such hatnotes shouldn't have any extra links, only the link to the article involved. I've trimmed it. Pam  D  22:59, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * And I have added your new items to the disambiguation pages at Durant and Tammy: please start to do this yourself. Thanks. Pam  D  23:05, 19 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Well noted! Thank you so much and best regards RV (talk) 07:57, 20 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Remember also that you should make a redirect from any alternative term such as Butcher linen, in case someone else decides to start an article at that title. I've done that one. Pam  D  16:22, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Sure! Thanks and best regards RV (talk) 17:35, 23 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I just tried it with Castor (cloth). Kindly check if i am not doing wrong. Regards RV (talk) 03:16, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

The redirect is good but it needs to be on the Castor disambiguation page too. I've added it. Pam D  04:43, 24 May 2021 (UTC)
 * Ok thanks, I tried it with Melange (yarn). Regards RV (talk) 05:24, 24 May 2021 (UTC)

Suggestion
Please stay away from Roxy the dog. I understand that there are issues, and that you both edit in the same area, but if you are reverted by Roxy just raise it on the talk page. Don't revert back - even if you are completely in the right - and don't make the issue worse by adding warnings. Where Roxy is concerned, act is if you are on a 0-reverts restriction, and ask for help if you find yourself getting caught up.

My concern is that this pattern only leads to one of three ends, and that is one or the other being blocked, topic banned, or having an inetraction ban which effectively means you can't edit in an area where you have a lot to provide. - Bilby (talk) 09:59, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * @ I sincerely appreciate your concern. Unfortunately, the user always provokes me and sets the trap. Thanks and regards RV (talk) 10:14, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Ultimately, it is your choice. But, if it is as you say, walking into traps doesn't make a lot of sense to me. - Bilby (talk) 13:03, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * @ I am getting your point and absolutely in agreement with you. And will avoid any conflict/trap such as [], []. Thanks RV (talk) 13:36, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I need to remind you of this, considering the comments during the AfD discussion listed just below. If you need to defend an article, do so as objectively as possible, and do not respond to further baiting. I've left them a similar comment. .  DGG ( talk ) 04:53, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Nomination of Performance (textiles) for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Performance (textiles) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Articles for deletion/Performance (textiles) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Roxy . wooF 19:34, 13 June 2021 (UTC)

where to ask
If you woud like me to look at something, either ping me during the discussion or ask me on my user talk. But unless the matter has a good reason for requiring privacy, please don't email me about it. It tends to look like an hidden attempt to CANVASS.  DGG ( talk ) 04:40, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
 * I am sorry I missed this. noted and will surely take care. Thanks and best regards RV (talk) 11:57, 22 June 2021 (UTC)

 You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for making personal attacks towards other editors. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:. Bilby (talk) 15:13, 5 July 2021 (UTC)

I understand that you have been the subject of harassment, but you've been warned repeatedly not to get into these edit wars and not to respond as you have. You have repeatly accused another editor of incompetence in the midst of an edit war, and there has to be a limit. I'm not making this a long block, but please, for your own sake, find a solution to this dispute that doesn't involve insults and edit warring. The next stop is likely to be ANI and an interaction ban. - Bilby (talk) 15:14, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Do you think this is fair? See their talk page. I have left messages, warnings and flags for help on time, but the result is you are punishing me. Why? RV (talk) 15:25, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
 * This time Roxy did revert you in an edit war - but that was all. You also edit warred, but at the same time repeatedly added personal attacks in edit summaries:, , . Calling someone incompetent is a personal attack. Then not only did you edit war over the article, you reverted Roxy's removal of your posts to their talk page. I don't think this is one-sided, and I don't feel that you are solely repsonsible for the current state of affairs, but ultimately we can't repeatedly insult an editor over an editing dispute. - Bilby (talk) 15:34, 5 July 2021 (UTC)
 * , I had no intention of going after them personally. I was attempting to correct the user for their error. The restoration of the talk page was to prevent their escape from the involvement of pinged users, which I was waiting to finalize The redirect to Technical textile was valid when the performance (textiles) the original subject was absent. Even after a deletion attempt, the later article was decided to be kept.  The relating name should be redirected to Performance (textiles) only.WP:R, WP:OTHERNAMES. Secondly, Technical textile is mere a classification whereas Performance (textiles) explains the performance characteristics and attributes of the Performance fabrics. Hence, It makes more sense to redirect it on performance (textiles). The core issue is still waiting for a decision/consensus. It is not a pissing contest, we have some responsibility. I am still concerned about the same. Kindly advise. Thanks RV (talk) 03:00, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Whether or not you had any intention of going after them personally, you did - again, and again, and again, and again. I absolutely understand that you feel you have been goaded, and you have a case. But you need to understand that personal attacks and ongoing edit warring are not the way to fix the issue - something multiple editors have tried to make clear. - Bilby (talk) 05:41, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I think I was pinged because I supported the split article at afc. I do continue to think there are two valid articles here.and I am prepared to defend them, hough not by edit waring! This is a classic case where one ed taunted the other into a bloc--I had in  fact waned the other ed. about  NPA. , this is on my opinion one of those times both editors should have been block as I consider them equally responsible--applying blocks without taking this into consideration I think promotes edit warring,  provided one is clever enough to get the other editor blocked.  DGG ( talk ) 09:48, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree, but I blocked here because only one editor was making personal attacks. At the time I blocked, neither editor had passed 3RR. That said, immediately after RV was blocked Roxy reverted RV again and hit 4RR . I looked today at taking this to 3RRN, but was unsure that it was the right place given the overall situation. I'm happy if you feel that warrants a block as well, or I'm happy to take it to 3RRN myself if you would prefer. - Bilby (talk) 09:54, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * IMO Roxy hit 4RR before I was blocked.. Kindly check. Regards RV (talk) 12:18, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * You are correct. That said, I'll leave it up to DGG how to proceed in relation to Roxy. - Bilby (talk) 12:20, 6 July 2021 (UTC)
 * It is not fair. Thanks RV (talk) 02:11, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Hallo, Thank you for creating Tubada (coat). When you create an article like this with a "disambiguated" title, please make sure that the reader can find it from the basic name (ie Tubada), by adding or expanding a hatnote, or adding the article to a disambiguation page. This helps the reader to find your article, and also reduces the chance of a future careless editor creating a duplicate article with a slightly different disambiguator. I've fixed this one. Thanks, and Happy Editing.

That's my standard message above: this case was a bit more complicated as Tubada was a redirect to the plant, but as it was not obvious which if either was the WP:Primary Topic, I've created a disambiguation page. An alternative would have been to add  to the page at Melaleuca phoenicea: that produces the message: " "Tubada" redirects here. For the garment, see Tubada (coat).". Pam D  09:22, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Noted your comments and appreciate all. I have tried to fix the things. Kindly have a look. Regards RV (talk) 15:57, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
