where is review
In your recent close, you say "already a move review underway with regards to Pan (genus)", I am not aware of any review (as the proposer of both moves it would be nice to know). What am I missing? cygnis insignis
 * , at Move review. Many thanks,   SITH   (talk)   09:40, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Or was, when I checked. Help me to understand what is going on, if you see what I am overlooking. There was no notification on this, I proposed the first and subsequent RM and followed all the discussions as they sprang up. There was an extensive discussion before I proposed the move. I notified every other discussion of related changes and proposals, in fairness to those who already had a say. The discussion you linked has (or had) limited participation. Would the decision to reverse the move just be presented to the surprise of those who had already participated in a discussion that was thought to be closed? The objections in the first discussion were very clear, they did not want the second discussion to happen, those who favour a multi-move discussion opposed my single-page RM for the same reason: they favour the arrangement prior to the first move and didn't want the title to be available (but think every link to that page was wrong). Everybody seems sure of their opinion, which is fine with me because I don't need to favour one or the other, and note I while opened the second RM I preferred another solution and no firm opinion on other options. Thanks for the reply. cygnis insignis 11:06, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
 * , a move review is a procedure by which an editor challenges the closure of a requested move discussion. The person who starts the requested move must first attempt to gain clarification on whatever it is in the closing statement they find to be incorrect and if it cannot be reconciled, a move review is started.  Users then discuss whether the closure was acceptable per closing instructions.  It is not common practice to notify all of the users who took part in the requested move discussion because the move review is not about whether the page should be moved or not, rather it is about whether the closer correctly determined the consensus of the discussion.  At the time of my closure of the second RM, the move review concerning the first RM was still active.  I hope this clears it up for you, please let me know if you have any further questions.    SITH   (talk)   11:47, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
 * That does clear things up, and I should have realised that would be the sensible approach! I don't think anyone is at fault in this, but there is a lot discord in whole business and I prefer to accept some responsibility for putting this in motion. I might see you round again, have a good one. cygnis insignis 12:48, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

Manual page swaps
When doing manual page swaps, can you make sure that all 3 moves are done without leaving behind redirects (and then fix the redirect at the old title), so that useless redirects aren't left behind in the Draft:Move/ namespace please? Iffy★Chat -- 14:43, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

Declined Draft:Executive Office for United States Attorneys
In reference to a declined draft https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Executive_Office_for_United_States_Attorneys you provided some great feedback to update. I made some updates so that the Department of Justice is more clearly referenced with respect to paraphrased or directly copies content. What should I do about bulleted information that is pulled directly from the Federal government website. Do I need to cite every bullet if it comes from the same page? Thanks for your time Scott8905 (talk) 15:58, 15 February 2019 (UTC)
 * , there's a bunch of templates here that you can use as footnote attribution disclaimers, I think Template:DoJ would probably be the best-placed one considering the article content.   SITH   (talk)   09:18, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks so much for your recommendation(s). I have resubmitted for review. If you have the time I would really appreciate another review to make sure that I followed through.  I also added some more inline references and cleaned up a couple that are hopefully up to the Wikipedia standards.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scott8905 (talk • contribs) 18:57, 20 February 2019 (UTC)

1994–96 United States broadcast TV realignment
Greetings. I just noticed your close of the requested move concerning of 1994–96 United States broadcast TV realignment. While there was clear consensus to move the page from the previous, I think it should have been moved to "1994–1996 United States broadcast TV realignment," based on feedback at the RM itself and per MOS:DATERANGE. Thanks,  Calidum   04:01, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, that took about a minute of head-scratching! Thanks for pointing that out, it should now be rectified.    SITH   (talk)   04:12, 21 February 2019 (UTC)

Your closure
Hey, thanks for closing this discussion. However, I prefer to have an experienced admin close the discussion. Please open the discussion for me to have it addressed by an experienced admin. Regards. -- M h hossein   talk 18:19, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
 * , no problem, done. I usually don't undo closures based on non-administrator status but I am willing to make an exception in this case due to the multiple ANI threads about Iran-related disputes that I don't really want to get involved in!  Many thanks,   SITH   (talk)   23:14, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks. After making the request here, I saw there was a venue for having the moves reviewed. Yeah I understand what you said regarding the threads. Regards. -- M h hossein   talk 03:34, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
 * , yep, but MRV should only take place if a query can't be settled on the closer's talk page. Hopefully that's not the case here!    SITH   (talk)   19:35, 21 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi again, sorry for the delay. Yes we can settle it down here. Then I should let you know why I though the closure was not proper: In ictu oculi's oppose was mainly based on 2011 Iran assassination plot, which was actually 2011 alleged Iran assassination plot. There are 3 more oppose comments; One for Icewhiz with the other two being "per Icewhiz" adding nothing to the arguments. You may see that, as the admin said, "the summary of those articles [brought up by Icewhiz] was insufficient, and amounts to synthesis of content where it instead claimed that the term "alleged" was no longer used." Later Icewhiz said fresh sources where saying it as a fact, but you can see that even fresh sources are caution with attributing the incident to Iran and instead use terms like "alleged", "claimed", "accused" and etc. That said, I think the arguments raised by the users supporting the move (me, Kraose, Saff V. and Kraose) were convincing. I think reliable independent sources are supporting the move. -- M h hossein   talk 12:44, 24 February 2019 (UTC)

Your recent proposed deletions
Yesterday you proposed around 40 articles for deletion in the space of a few minutes. In most cases they either already cited reliable sources, or such sources were easy to find, and they have now been deproded. Proposed deletion is for uncontroversial deletion candidates only. You appear to have proposed these articles for deletion because of a lack of sources in the articles themselves. This is not an appropriate use of proposed deletion. --Michig (talk) 09:41, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
 * , you're more than welcome to de-PROD them, I note you have done so already on most of them, so I shall be sending them to AfD as I still don't think they pass WP:BAND. Many thanks,   SITH   (talk)   10:46, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

 * , please find the AfDs here. You're more than welcome to voice your disapproval there, however as I have said, before I PROD-ed them, I did a standard BEFORE search for each of them, so I see no reason to repeat those searches before sending them to AfD when your summary for de-PROD-ing them merely asserted that reliable sources exist without citing them.  Anyway, let's not fall out, eh?    SITH   (talk)   11:01, 23 February 2019 (UTC)

*for nominating so many articles so quickly, and from above "your summary for de-PROD-ing them merely asserted that reliable sources exist without citing them." while your afds do the same ie. asserting that WP:BEFORE done ("I did a standard BEFORE search for each of them,") without showing it.

Draft rejection Ernest Walker Simons
Hello. I received an email saying that my new article was rejected, but you did not say what part was in violation. It referred to my use of supposedly copyrighted material. I am not sure what could possibly be copyrighted, since virtually any references to this man you will find on the Internet were written by *me* (his findagrave.com bio, etc.), and if they were not from my own written sources, the references are from works at least 100 years old, now in the public domain. There is very little written about him. Where is this copyrighted material? The photo is mine as well. Please point out the offending passages if you will. I am still very new at this, and the secret code speak here baffles me.

Thank you. -Jon Jgcolcord (talk) 16:04, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * , Special:Diff/884870723 details the removals made, they were directly copied from the URL listed on the talk page message. Many thanks,   SITH   (talk)   16:06, 24 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you. Changes can be easily made here. I suspect that work is far out of any copyright, and it was not actually pasted from anywhere. I had to transcribe it from the 100-year old book. Would it be sufficient to simply leave those passages in an article simply and place quotation marks where appropriate? It’s not a big deal for me to reword it here obviously, but I would like to know for future reference, and I also have a similar article up for review concerning the Simons factory.

Draft Declined: Maurice Bevan-Brown
Thank you for your feedback. Are all the blockquotes I have used in breach of copyright? (I was under the impression they were fair use, since I exactly cited each one.) Or is it just the NZAP website? Happy to summarise: having just been declined for lack of notability, I thought the quotations would establish it beyond any doubl.--Hugh7 (talk) 03:29, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, the short answer is uggggghhhhhhhh! The detailed answer is that long quotes which are subject to copyright can be used under specific circumstances per WP:COPYQUOTE but it's generally favourable to slash the quote down just to the salient points to avoid a copyright dispute pre-emptively.

Declined Draft: Daylight Entertainment
Dear SITH, I am editing my first draft: Daylight Entertainment. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Daylight_Entertainment I was told the references didn't meet the wiki standards. Since I was translating and editing this draft based on the same title in Traditional Chinese (which is here) and Category: Television series by Daylight Entertainment, so probably my inexperience caused some reference mistakes. Also, because of the Great Firewall in China, it is hardly to find English references from Google or NYT covering about a specialized area in China. So the references I found are all from independent Chinese media and I am not very sure if it is okay... Could you take a look at the draft and kindly tell if the draft is ready to be resubmitted again? Thank you for your time and help, Mclinyang (talk) 02:28, 25 February 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, I am not a native speaker of Chinese so I am probably not the best person to ask regarding the translation of sources, however, the version I rejected appeared not to demonstrate the requisite significant coverage for an article.

Draft Declined: CrazyGames (February 24) -- help with verifying traffic of a website
My article was rejected with the comment "SimilarWeb isn't significant coverage." I used Similarweb to reference the traffic to the website. What other references could I use to back this up?

I would appreciate it very much if anyone could help me with this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexander1803 (talk • contribs)


 * Hi, the only citation which covered the website in any depth on the submission was SimilarWeb. My contention is that SimilarWeb documents traffic and doesn't actually show depth of coverage.

Guidance kindly requested
Dear StraussInTheHouse,

Thank you very much for your review of the draft page of W. Patrick Murphy, I am writing to kindly ask for your guidance in order to ameliorate the page. Your comment stated that the page paraphrases content from a bio of Mr Murphy (found at https://fpa.org/events/index.cfm?act=show_event&event_id=548).

As the Wikipedia page itself aims to be a bio, I find it very difficult to avoid repeating the same content. Any concrete guidance would be highly appreciated as I see no copyright infringement of any kind and find the repetition of the same pieces of information unavoidable.

Thank you in advance! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Stenobook26 (talk • contribs) 22:06, 27 February 2019 (UTC)

 * I don't understand what 'no prejudice against speedy renomination' means, and that link is about deletion, not moves. I have read WP:NOTMOVED. This may be because 1. a discussion has fractured into several possible titles and none seem especially suitable, No. 2. or simply because equally strong arguments and appeals to Wikipedia policy and outside sources were found on both sides, without a clear winner in the discussion. The opposing side has not responded to the points brought up, so is not equally strong. Ythlev (talk) 23:54, 3 March 2019 (UTC)
 * , I know that page is about deletions but it is, in practice, used in move discussion closures as well. "No prejudice against speedy renomination" means you can start a new requested move with the same rationale and ping the users who contributed in the previous discussion and the closure of the resultant discussion will not take into account the speediness of the renomination.  As I have said, we do not relist discussions ad infinitum.  I determined there to be no consensus for or against the move and closed it accordingly.  If you still disagree with my decision, you are more than welcome to open a move review.    SITH   (talk)   10:03, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Bio copyright rejection for Manuel Cortes Castaneda
The page submitted: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Manuel_Cort%C3%A9s-Casta%C3%B1eda?action=edit was rejected because the same bio information was found elsewhere on the web.

Deletion of Draft:Al Pancho
Hello, Thank you so much for contributing to Wikipedia. It is an amazing site.

- I am writing because I created a new page (Al Pancho) and it was rejected for copyright violation twice and now I have been blocked from creating the page. - After the first copyright violation I explained that I had been given permission to reproduce some of the information (on www.alpancho.com). - The second violation was about www.discogs.com but that is the same information, which I have been given permission to reproduce. However, I was not given the chance to explain that and was blocked. That said, I do appreciate all the users efforts to continue to make Wikipedia such an awesome site :)

- It was also rejected because of whether Al Pancho is sufficiently notable. Al Pancho is a fairly well-known music artist. He has a link from a Wikipedia page. He has worked with a lot of famous music artists and smaller artists, all of whom have Wikipedia pages. - I noticed he didn't have a Wikipedia page when I looked him up. So, I created one for him. I spent a lot of time learning the Wikipedia source code so that it was created correctly. I was also careful to write an unbiased article.

Declined draft: Society of United Professionals copyright issue
Hi SITH. My latest draft was flagged for copyright violations. I'm very confused as to what to qualify as a copyright infringement. I'm new to the process so I'm pleading ignorance here. The previous reviewer flagged concerns with tone and secondary sources that I sought to address, but there was no mention of concern with copyright. I stripped out an offending section and I've since added a large number of secondary sources as references but did not copy content or include content without a reference. Are you able to provide more guidance why this is in violation and how i can address. I appreciate your help and am at a complete loss. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Canada4life (talk • contribs) 17:39, 4 March 2019 (UTC)

Draft Deletion: Jubilate Music Group
Hi StraussInTheHouse!

Thank you so much for your feedback on my draft that I created, the reply was very helpful (here is a link to the deleted draft pagehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Beracah123#Your_submission_at_Articles_for_creation%3A_Jubilate_Music_Group_%28March_1%29). This is my first time ever creating a Wikipedia page, so I'm sure my inexperience was very obvious haha. I am working to get this Wikipedia page published for one of my college class projects, and also believe this company needs to have a Wikipedia page. The comments you left on the deleted draft make total sense and I will work to make edits on some of the information that was pulled directly from their site. I was curious if there was any way I could get the deleted information back, so I could have a starting place on my edits rather than having to start from scratch. I believe that a majority of my information and sources were formatted and sufficient, so I would hate to have to start over completely. I thank you so much for your time, and for taking the time to edit my first draft. I will work hard to make sure my second draft covers all requirements.

Thank you!

Understanding that now, I have updated the content referenced in your notification as indicated below. Please let me know how I could further improve this page to meet your standards of integrity.

Justin Gabriel RM
Hello, I feel that the RM at Talk: Justin Gabriel could have been relisted another time. WP:RM says that discussions can be relisted up to three times. It even seems there was consensus to move the page. I know it's not a vote, but there was 4 supports and 3 opposes, 2 of the opposes being labeled "weak" by the commenters. The supports were backed by two guidelines, with opposes saying Gabriel might still be the common name.

You can use the OTRS process to confidentially submit proof that the material used on her website is being used with her consent, or you can ask her to explicitly state on the website that the text is not copyrighted and is released under a free license such as GNU, GFDL, CC BY-SA.  However, it would probably be best simply to reword the specific bits copied into your own words.  Many thanks,   SITH   (talk)   20:53, 6 March 2019 (UTC)


 * 1) Note that I disclosed our friendship when I first submitted the content for review on Nov. 25, 2018, where I stated, "This person is a neighbor and friend."
 * 2) I think the simplest solution would be to have her state on her website that the text is not copyrighted and is released under a free license. I will discuss this with her.

Ditikeni draft rejection - copyright
Good day, It has come to my attention that my draft article on Ditikeni was rejected, due to supposed copyright infringements. I would like to query this - firstly, I am not sure whch part of the article is being referred to. Secondly, the supposed copyrighted copy was originally included as a reference, but I was then informed I should remove the reference in favour of more broad, academic etc references that did not come from the source of the article itself. So I am confused - do I keep the reference (http://ditikeni.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Ditikeni-AR2018-FINALdigital.pdf) or not? Please help me here - I wudl really like to get this right, Regards, Karen KarenRutter (talk) 08:09, 7 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Thank you for the invitation. I wrote a reply saying that no, I didn't think it needed to be reworded; I just thought that it was misapplied here. (I wasn't intending to complain about your use of it -- if applying it was indeed a mistake, well, I make mistakes quite often.) But before clicking "Publish changes", I rethought. I'd be expecting every reviewer to chase up evidence for CoI, and I don't think that this is a realistic expectation. (It could even backfire, as I've seen accusations of CoI on very flimsy evidence.) So yes, I think that rewording would be beneficial. As a first stab at this:
 * You are welcome to write an article on the subject, but please do not use copyrighted work .
 * &rarr;
 * You are welcome to write an article on the subject (if you have no conflict of interest ), but please do not use copyrighted work .

Declined submission for "Eran Shor"
Hi StraussInTheHouse,

You rejected my draft submission for "Eran Shor" (an academic and sociologist in Canada).

I am wondering if you can give me clearer instructions for how I can improve my page. It says that the page "included copyrighted content," however all of the content in this page was re-worded and re-phrased, and was not copied from anywhere directly. I understand that it may have similar content to the McGill Univerisity page mcgill.ca/sociology/faculty/eran-shor, however it was all re-worded and not copied directly.

How should I cite Eran Shor's research interests? Is it okay for me to only cite the McGill page, as his research interests are not found in other sources?

Please let me know what I can do, I appreciate your help.

Thank you,

Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in Canada
In reviewing the new pages feed I noticed Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) in Canada and your ESSAY and NOR comment at the top. It appears to be a well sourced article and contains some encylopedic contant. However, I also see much duplication with the generic LNG page where it has a great deal of info unrelated to the specifics of LNG in Canada. In general I think that the subject is relevant but the article is problematic. What are your thoughts on how this could be improved? --mikeu talk 01:24, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

 * The sections:
 * LNG life-cycle
 * LNG compared to diesel
 * Economic Considerations

 * Also, I noticed that the naming convention is usually Natural gas in... and that list includes a Natural gas in Canada stub. --mikeu talk 17:58, 8 March 2019 (UTC)

Robert McClenon (talk) 17:40, 28 February 2019 (UTC) I'm willing to throw some good faith out there, no objections. Hell in a Bucket (talk) 21:49, 28 February 2019 (UTC)

Do i keep working on this draft?or make a new one? were they not wanting all rejections to be discussed? Mickmonaghan343 (talk) 12:19, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, you can still work on the draft while it is at MfD but submitting is while it's there is a bad idea because we can't accept stuff with deletion templates on it.   SITH   (talk)   13:06, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

Good morning,

My article was refused because it says some parts are taken from the European Commission website. I have a copyright licence from the European Commission to use this content. If I provide you with this licence, will you agree to publish the article (on the Eurpean Pillar of Social Rights)? Thank you in advance,

COLIND (talk) 07:50, 12 March 2019 (UTC) Hello StraussInTheHouse - thanks for your feedback on my proposed page Aloysius McVeigh. I do appreciate the help as I am fairly new to Wikipedia and want to get it right. Can you please have a look at the amendments that I have made and see if they are suitable and that it complies now.


 * Talk page stalker here. No, your proposed page Draft:Aloysius McVeigh definitely does not comply. I selected one paragraph at random:


 * Sr. Aloysius began painting Icons in 1986. Her painting, Our Lady of Derry, marked her transition from artist to iconographer. She described icon painting as “an act of worship”, stating that the painstaking nature of the work gave her time to reflect and to pray. She often stated that it was not possible to be an iconographer without prayer.


 * Aside from the first, short sentence (whose origin I haven't investigated), the entire thing is filched verbatim from this web page. If Wikipedia welcomed material copied from other web pages, then the honest way to do this would be something like:


 * Sr. Aloysius began painting Icons in 1986. "[H]er [...] painting, Our Lady of Derry, marked her transition from artist to iconographer. [...] She described icon painting as 'an act of worship', stating that the painstaking nature of the work [...] gave her time to reflect and to pray. She often stated that it was not possible to be an iconographer without prayer."


 * However, Wikipedia does not normally welcome material copied from other web pages. Please read and digest Copying text from other sources. Let me quote a snippet from this: the quotation must not be replaceable with free text (including one that the editor writes), must be minimal [...]. Therefore please write your own text. -- Hoary (talk) 09:30, 12 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Thank you for your time Hoary - I appreciate the feedback. I will have a look again and strip out most of this content. — Preceding unsigned comment added by COLIND (talk • contribs) 17:12, 12 March 2019 (UTC)
 * +1 thanks for that .   SITH   (talk)   13:10, 14 March 2019 (UTC)

I submitted an article for Salt Cathedral (band). I used language from the band's biography, available in multiple places, many of them event pages like the National Sawdust page that was flagged for copyright. This content isn't copyrighted. Please advise how to fix the issue so that the article can be approved.

 * , please provide a link. I can't seem to find such a draft in your contribs.    SITH   (talk)   23:33, 15 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Here is a link to the page. Looks like it was deleted. What should be my next steps and how can I ensure that I meet all requirements so it isn't rejected again? Is it possible to just make this version live? https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:OfficerMeowMeowFuzzyFace/Salt_Cathedral_(band) — Preceding unsigned comment added by OfficerMeowMeowFuzzyFace (talk • contribs) 23:56, 15 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Hello, talk page stalker here. You have to understand two things.


 * First, the text that you are recycling was/is PR material, designed to increase interest rather than describe or explain. Meanwhile, this is an encyclopedia, whose purpose is to describe or explain. Regardless of its copyright status, PR material is unwelcome here.


 * Need an illustration? Try "a new and unique brand of well-crafted and culturally relevant pop music". What (if anything) does "culturally relevant" mean? Which reliable, disinterested authorities have called it new, unique, well-crafted or "culturally relevant", and precisely where did they call it so? (Promoters are of course not disinterested.)


 * Secondly, if copyright isn't claimed (or if somebody says that material isn't copyrighted), that doesn't mean that it's not copyrighted. For text not to be copyrighted, it must be in the public domain (in the legal sense of this term, not in any more popular sense). Since it's obvious that this text is pretty new, in order to be in the public domain it must be explicitly donated to the public domain. Wikipedia requires clear evidence of such donation. -- Hoary (talk) 04:58, 16 March 2019 (UTC)


 * Pretty much what said.    SITH   (talk)   15:50, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

Permission to Resubmit
Hello! You deleted my previous article for Shelby J. (Musician). I have completely rewritten the article from the bottom up and would like the opportunity to resubmit once more. Can I please be granted approval to move forward with this? This is my first time, but I think I am understanding the rules more now. I appreciate your consideration. Princefriend (talk) 01:47, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
 * , as long as it isn't a copyright violation (which I assume was the deletion reason), sure!   SITH   (talk)   15:51, 16 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello! I was trying to create a Meimeiwawa English Wiki page to accompany its already established zh-tw counterpart.

I understand that you're concerned about not enough secondary resources reporting on it directly, but a.) the Chinese page is already established and b.) a lot of the sources are not in English.

I have saved a new draft that mentions more citations, but they are in Chinese. Meimeiwawa is an established bilingual/multicultural company that exists in a country where there are very few "legitimate" English publications, so if you'll accept the Chinese sources that would be marvelous. If not, then I'll just hold off until more secondary English references come up.

Longjiangmei (talk) 05:32, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, thank you for your input. The sources need not be in English, the significance of the coverage on the Chinese stage will be considered, however I machine-translate, so I will hold off on reviewing and leave it to another reviewer, preferably one who has a native or near-native understanding of Chinese.  Many thanks,   SITH   (talk)   10:08, 19 March 2019 (UTC)

Permission to Resubmit Draft: Hengameh (Singer)
Hello: I worked really hard on [] and the page has been deleted due to alleged copyright infringement from two websites. Both websites have the same content, which is my (the artist at issue) biography. Both of these websites got these biographies from my former website which is no longer active. Would I still need to remove the content, despite me being the copyright owner? I put my biography out in the public domain for free use by anybody. Please let me know if this changes things or if I need to resubmit all together. If I do need to resubmit, can I please get the draft back in order to make the changes? SBavafa (talk) 07:42, 19 March 2019 (UTC)
 * Hi, if you publish on your current website a copyright waiver notice and tag the text on Wikipedia with a free license tag that should be fine. You'll need to contact the deleting administrator for a copy.  May I also recommend you declare your conflict of interest on your userpage using Template:UserboxCOI?
