Unfortunately I am not very experienced in editing/writing on WP and your suggestoons would be more than appreciated.

Merge performed
Hi Richie Campbell: Way back in January you participated in Articles for deletion/List of Miss World hosts and invited artists, which was closed as a merge. I have (finally) merged the content to Miss World § Miss World hosts and invited artists. This was opposed by the nominator for deletion, against the consensus of the discussion, who redirected the page without performing any merge, stating in edit summaries that there's nothing to merge (diff, diff). However, I disagree, performed the merge, formatted the table, and have begun adding sources to verify the content.

Writing to request assistance with further verifying and improving the section of the article, if you're interested. I've also notified, who participated in the discussion, and the closer, , about all of this. Cheers! North America1000 09:47, 22 June 2016 (UTC)

Miss Universe Slovak Republic
Hello, thank you for giving me message. Well I just saw on Miss Universe Slovak Republic website. The organizer created the pageant in 1999 and there are three queens which are Winner and two runners-up. Why don't I allow to write their position on MU Slovakia page? It is a real though.

Thank you so much, please correct me if I get something wrong.

Mrs Globe Australia 2016 in The Latin Australian Times
The Latin Australian Times is a National print hard copy newspaper and the story for Mrs Globe Australia 2016 is a feature with 3 full process color photos. You can buy a copy of the newspaper in any major capital city of Australia for $2.50 The article appears in edition 29 page 14 which is still available tomorrow Monday 20 of November 2016. Every Thursday a new issue is printed and distributed throughout Australia. Maybe read the article before you delete such a great article on a great charity based beauty pageant that happens to be second largest in the country and but the largest in terms of fundraising for charity as it is its main focus. (Australianblackbelt (talk) 13:04, 19 November 2016 (UTC))
 * Why don't you nominate this page also for deletion which I wrote it is basically like Mrs Globe Aust 2016=>>> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_Latin_America_2016 I wont wont try and stop you go for it be my guest https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miss_Latin_America_2016 it will be another notch on your belt. You've contributed so many years to wikipedia you deserve some satisfaction. I don't have anymore time to write wikipedia pages then spend hours arguing to have them not deleted. Good luck muchacho :) (Australianblackbelt (talk) 12:39, 4 December 2016 (UTC))
 * You have stated you can't read the text in the as you say (alleged) Latin Australian Times... now you certainly can read it here https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1181809865271749&set=o.154927351582779&type=3&theater (Australianblackbelt (talk) 03:20, 13 December 2016 (UTC))
 * Hi Australianblackbelt. Based on the chronology of the postings in Facebook, and "the need to post" this source in Facebook few hours after my comment considering that the wiki article is in question, and that Carmen Ibis Novoa who you have also written the article (in which the references  that you have provided  for this biographical article were screen shots and posted in her (Carmen Novoa) website raise a red flag. The Mrs Globe Australia is also weak keep from the references provided, but I'm willing to compromise if you strengthen the Miss Globe Australia article with reliable sources just like an article written in the Star Weekly (although other editors may think that this article is weak). The Miss Latin America 2016  can definitely  be nominated for deletion however one or two of those sources can be used to strengthen the article,  Miss América Latina. The annual editions of Miss Universe, Miss World, Miss Earth, and Miss International were almost deleted by AFD despite multiple reliable sources. So don't take this against you, sooner or later these articles (Miss Latin America 2016 and  Miss Globe Australia 2016) will be deleted for not being significant. The parent articles though may be saved if you provide reliable sources and I may help you with that if you need my help. However, avoid providing references from user-generated content which include personal websites, personal blogs, group blogs, the Internet Movie Database (IMDb), the Comic Book Database (CBDB.com), content farms, and other collaboratively created websites including material published by the subject on social networking websites such as Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit, and Facebook.--Richie Campbell (talk) 04:18, 13 December 2016 (UTC)
 * The article written on Carmen Novoa is not in question the scanned news sources on her website are not subject to copyright due to age and papers that are no longer in print. As for the post by Carmen of her article on the Latin Australian Times facebook page it too is not subject to copyright and there are plenty of face book users that can ask her to post as she has done which is totally logical since you question its existence and that you cant read it... for that you should be grateful it was done just to satisfy you.(Australianblackbelt (talk) 04:31, 13 December 2016 (UTC))
 * You fought me tooth and nail to delete Mrs Globe Australia 2016 even criticised my other pages. You are always on top of beauty pageants deleting content yet why does this article Miss América Latina exist with no sources what so ever?? one passing mention and only ref was put there by me.(Australianblackbelt (talk) 12:24, 12 March 2017 (UTC))
 * @ Australianblackbelt, you made the deletion nomination already.--Richie Campbell (talk) 13:33, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

Sockpuppet
I noticed a question you asked another editor about identifying a sockpuppet. The Editor Interaction Analyser is a handy tool. I'm not sure if you're aware of it. Cheers. Magnolia677 (talk) 19:31, 12 December 2016 (UTC)

Page needs to be deleted
Hi Richie, I created this article Miss Latin America 2016 thinking there would be more references later.. I was wrong and now the page reflects poorly on me as an editor. I don't understand the deletion process seeing as I created the article is it possible for you to nominate it for speedy deletion. Australianblackbelt (talk) 01:32, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
 * @ Australianblackbelt, you made the deletion nomination already.--Richie Campbell (talk) 13:32, 12 March 2017 (UTC)

Miss Teen World
Hi Richie! I need your help, I did Miss Teen World contributions taking into account press releases and publications made about the contest since 2001, however Ayaat1998 reverted edits, I have read an "alert" and warning, preventing me from continuing with an impartial job that took me a whole day. I belive my contributios are correct, please, help me to cancel this warning and let me to write at Miss Teen World. The official contest emerged in Ecuador in 2001 by its founder Cesar Montece owner of the Queen of Ecuador company who died in 2009 https://www.eluniverso.com/2010/04/01/1/1379/murio-cesar-montece-empresario-belleza.html and for this reason was held as a new pageant under the same name in the US from 2009 to 2012. Due to a legal problem with Miss World he was forced to change the name of the pageant in the US, is called currently Miss Teen Continents. Montece's sister, president of the Queen of Ecuador Inc. company sold all rights to the pageant to Rodrigo Moreira, director of Miss Teen Ecuador in 2012. Montece had more than 20 beauty pageants in Ecuador. The website of that event was http://web.archive.org/web/20031229021751/http://www.queenofecuador.com.ec/ and on the web there are hundreds of referrals that can give you a more clear idea about it. Ayaat1998 is a user with bad intentions, who for some obscure reason asks to delete my user who has contributed neutrally to Wikipedia for many years.--User:Jeniferliberman19:00, 14 September 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi Jenifer you may want to bring your case to the Administrator intervention against vandalism.---Richie Campbell (talk) 02:33, 15 September 2020 (UTC)

Richie Campbell I want to bring this in notice to you that Miss Teen World was started by Mr Gaspar Cruz who is from USA. Later he was legally sued by the Miss World Organization and they obtained the trademarks in most of the countries.

Last year, Rodrigo Moreira from Equador changed the name of his pageant to Miss Teen World all of a sudden and made edits to Miss Teen World. The edits should be immediately unpublished and the correct information should be posted. I request you to look into it on priority.

Also, have a look on the other pages like Miss Teen Supranational etc. They all have been occupied by Rodrigo Moreira and no events have been done. Few small media links have been created to acquire these pages. Aayat1998 (talk)

Also, if you check there are more than 20 accounts of the people from Equador who have been blocked from making Wikipedia edits. Aayat1998 (talk)

Miss Grand WP:WEIGHT
While I've blocked some accounts and semi-protected the article due to whitewashing attempts, I also have concerns that the "Controversy" section is the largest part of the article. I've removed one that seems to be strictly about one contestant bad-mouthing another contestant. Also, why does Miss Grand have a "Controversey" section but Miss Universe doesn't? Surely the Steve Harvey affair would qualify as a "controversy." OhNo itsJamie Talk 15:29, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * The Steve Harvey controversy can be found in the lede of Miss Universe 2015 article. For the other issues, I left a note in the Miss Grand talk page.Richie Campbell (talk) 05:08, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Big Six pageants
Was there previously an article on the "Big Six" pageants? I can't find one under obvious titles, and I thought you might know more of the history of this. —C.Fred (talk) 15:08, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi C.Fred, please see my reply at Talk:Big Six International beauty pageants.---Richie Campbell (talk) 04:06, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

Miss Teen International
The Miss Teen International article could use some attention from an expert editor on beauty pagent matters such as yourself. There is currently disruptive editing going on, possibly by one or more ban-evaders, to promote this version or that version of the pageant over all others who also own trademark rights to the name for their respective countries. I sourced with references three active trademarks for current pageants in the United States, India, and Ecuador. An editor just reverted my Ecuador material and has made false accusations about my editing on my talk page saying I added content that I did not. I really am not deeply interested in this topic and want to walk away. If you can, please add the article to your patrol. Thanks.  5Q5 &#124;&#9993; 12:38, 21 May 2021 (UTC)


 * Dear Richie, I hope you are well, please add the article Miss Teen International (India) to your patrol, the user Aayat1998 is tendentious and continues editing and changing the history of the contest for an extended time despite opposition from other editors. This was discussed a long time ago at the following link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Miss_Teen_International however the user keeps changing everything to promote this version or that version of the pageant over all others who also own trademark rights to the name for their respective countries. Thank you so much. Yahsabaot (talk) 14:23, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

I have thoroughly gone through several engines and I did not find any video or credible/big media source or even any picture of the event Miss Teen International(the Ecuador Version). I would ask the experienced editor the kindly check it once again. Without attacking the contributions of the different editors, the information should be put in the right way. 5Q5 also mentioned that the trademark status in Ecuador is pending. More than that, I believe in the notable sources which is not there for Miss Teen International, as claimed to be the Ecuador version. There have been several edits on the pages Miss Teen International, Miss Teen World, Miss Teen Supranational etc The editors who have been banned by wikipedia have added information in the name of the person based in Ecuador. There are no pictures, videos, notable articles for the same. We should work to make the article better, not destroy the misuse of the same. --Richardmat (talk) 04:59, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Disambiguation page
Hello Mr. Richie. I hope you are well. I have collaborated in several beauty pageant articles with citations and relevant information, I have proposed to create a disambiguation page in the Miss Teen International article without anyone commenting on this matter, because other editors added more versions of the pageant in other countries, some only have a facebook fan page as a reference, they do not have citations, no legal status or website, this in addition to creating some confusion and unfair advantage in relation to the true owners of the trademarks who disputed some time ago to be considered within the article, causes fatigue to the reader. Previously alongside  5Q5 &#124;&#9993; I helped with relevant information to successfully resolve a discussion in the same article. I would appreciate your consideration to help organize each of the versions into an article with its corresponding version, I just need a more experienced admin or editor to help create the disambiguation page. Thanks in advance for your answer. Yahsabaot (talk) 02:42, 16 February 2023 (UTC)

Disruptive edition
Dear Richie, I hope you are well, the conflict continues with the article Miss Teen International (India), the user Aayat1998 continues editing and changing the information. This was discussed a long time ago at the following link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Miss_Teen_International. I feel very tired of reversing all the time, the damage that this user is causing. I appreciate that you consider my contributions to the articles and can put an end to this conflict. Yahsabaot (talk) 07:25, 4 August 2023 (UTC)
