Be Kind
Hello Theroadislong, I really appreciate the tips you've given me regarding editing the article entitled "University of Benin (Nigeria)" and for captivating my attention to the shortcomings created by other contributors.

Conversely, your criticism is NOT constructive, rather you're practically against the development of the aforementioned University.

It is a truism that I have cited a good number of sources where applicable in the article, and most of them are primary sources.

Having diligently reviewed the alleged promotional content, I looked out for FACTS from reliable sources, and then edited the content from a neutral view. Yet, you ignored my efforts and removed the edited content (with facts and reliable sources) without patiently verifying the contents. Please, stop jeopardizing my suitable efforts.

Consequently, there's no more promotional content, and reliable sources which most of them are primary have been cited where applicable.

Thank you for your understanding, and I will appreciate any further suggestions. Zizikuli (talk) 21:32, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
 * Therein is the problem in that most of your sources are primary, Wikipedia only reports on what the independent sources say about a subject, adding a vast list of courses is promotional. I am trying to build an encyclopedia whilst you are concerned with promoting your university. Theroadislong (talk) 07:16, 7 July 2019 (UTC)

None of the references are to a press release, all 5 are to news reports, and I have no idea why four of them would be "451: Unavailable due to legal reasons."

Hi, This is regarding the Novigo Wiki page. I have removed the publication section and added a new citation of Novigo website regarding the locations.

DRAFT ARTICLE ON IoAAS - FOLLOW UP
Dear Theroadislong

Sorry to bother you again – about a month ago you very kindly looked at a draft of an article about the Institute of Advanced Architectural Studies, a former department of the University of York UK. Your main comment was I think that you felt it needed more references. Apart from that you didn't make any comment on the text, so I'm hoping that seemed OK. Current version, text largely unchanged but improved links and references: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Institute_of_Advanced_Architectural_Studies

I hope you find that the references are much more comprehensive. I take the point that Wikipedia wants independent sources and I have found quite a number. However, I think when writing about a University Department, it’s very difficult not to refer to a University’s own sources! (as I have seen on other articles). Also, as a top UK Russell Group University, I hope we can take the Uni of York’s word for it that it’s not making things up! This link in particular is very valuable:

https://borthcat.york.ac.uk/index.php/university-of-york-institute-of-advanced-architectural-studies

Also, the thing that the IoAAS was most well known for (and indeed I think notable) was the short course programme, but that strangely is also quite a difficult matter to produce published references to. Over 25 years, the Institute ran around 25 courses a year, say 625 course with around 30 attendees on each, giving training to nearly 20,000 architects. But not surprisingly, nobody writes articles or books about that - they go home and get on with it! The University of York Archives have copies of all the programmes, course notes, list of attendees etc, so it’s all a matter of record, but not online.

So, I'm hoping that you will accept that the IoAAS was a bona fide ‘notable’ institute. Indeed the surprise perhaps is that there has been no Wikipedia article recording it’s history before now.

Advice?
Hi there,

Thank you for reviewing my submission, The Fine Art Group.

I would really appreciate it if you could give me some further advice on how to get my page published - I thought I had enough third-party sources (Bloomberg, Antiques Trade Gazette, The Art Newspaper, Christie's), but apparently it still does not have enough notability. Getting this page up and running is proving to be a lot more difficult than I first thought, so any help that you could give would be amazing.

Thank you in advance for taking the time to read this, and for reviewing my article!

 * Christies in this instance is not a secondary source, the rest seem to be press releases, and the whole draft reads in a promotional manner I would strongly suggest you tell your employer that it is not going to get an article published very easily, conflict of interest editing is very much discouraged.

"Blatant Advertising"
How is this "blatant advertising," everything in here comes from a third party source and is stating FACTS so that the reader can get to know what Arbor Investments is. This is exactly what an encyclopedia article is supposed to look like. This is also written exactly in the same format as any other private equity firm or investment firm's page on Wikipedia. Visit any other PE firms page and you can see for yourself. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cprassas4 (talk • contribs) 15:32, 17 July 2019 (UTC)
 * "Arbor has built successful, diversified portfolio companies" "Fund IV will continue the same successful investment strategy" "investments in reasonably valued, high quality middle market food and beverage companies" are all marketing trumpery and the portfolio section is a list of external links which we don't use in article space.

Hi! Yes, I did not have time today to put the references and I need to read more on how to set up the references template. I want to do it the correct way. I will be adding them soon. I have them all in a word document, primary and secondary sources. I am aware that I should not rely too heavily on primary sources or else the page will have that warning. I will also clean up the page more. I wish that Wikipedia had a way to just upload the draft and then later submit, so that is why I pressed publish.

Regarding Raymond J. Chambers
Dear reviewer, Thank you for taking the time to review our submission. My co-authors and I have taken your comments on our initial submission to heart and we have revised the material accordingly. We have doubled the number of citations and provided more wiki links and resources as to Chambers' importance to our discipline of accounting. We note in particular that Chambers was inducted into the Accounting Hall of Fame, which is the highest honor that an academic accountant can achieve, and that he was also inducted into the Order of Australia, which represents the highest level of achievement for an Australian person.

Please do let us know if you would like us to make further edits and we'll do accordingly.

With very best wishes,

IoAAS Draft Article
Excuse me bothering you again, Theroadislong. I wonder by chance if you might have overlooked my last request for you to have a look at some revisions to this draft? I posted this comment on your Talk Page on 9th July, and there wasn't a reponse, which is quite unusual, as you are super efficient! I guessed you were just away somewhere. You next commented on another post on 16th July, but I think hadn't picked up on mine? Anyway, it's about 10 posts back, if you have a chance to look at it. Many thanks.

Aid writing Wikipedia Article
Good Afternoon! I am an intern at CompactCath Inc, and I have been tasked with creating a wikipedia page, as the company lacks one. This is my first time writing and publishing a wikipedia page, so I am obviously not as skilled with applying all necessary guidelines into my post the first time around. I understand you (or another editor) commented that the post was too similar to a catalog (I am assuming this is due to the listing of products and "defining features") I am trying to figure out how to neutrally write about the company, as well as find sources that are strong and not as centered from the company's website and its distributors. However, the company website and distributors' information is the most accurate and credible representation of what I write in the article. I was wondering if you would be able to inform me on how to neutrally discuss my company, as well as how to include sources that qualify with submission standards despite additional reliable sources being limited.

I highly appreciate your time! Thank you! Jake.compactcath (talk) 21:08, 23 July 2019 (UTC)
 * You have been given a thankless task and I do not envy you, creating an article is one of the most difficult things to do on Wikipedia, creating one when you have a conflict of interest is doubly difficult. Wikipedia has no interest in what the articles subject wants to say about itself, only what independent reliable sources have reported. The article should be limited to a summary of what such independent sources have said about the company. Theroadislong (talk) 21:13, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

Dear Wikipedian Theroadislong,

There is a long time that I am busy and I forgot a quite lot of Wikipedia regulations. I just read my old written family's documents relating to 4000 years of civilization and I edited it with sufficient supporting references in my sandbox trying to explain why people could called 4000 years with concrete figures of calculation. I would need to receive your simple and easy-understood guideline.

RE: Deletion of Page
Hey there and good evening. I wanted to share with you with kindness and by being polite if prominent people can enable to have their own Wikipedia article public and live, then whats the problem of me not having my article public as it took my hours and hours to write up the article and I can confidently say that I've started to gain experience, but I want my article as of user: GS.Uppal350 immediately restored my friend and I want to request for an automatic unblock of my page or just restoring it.

I'm also aware that celebrities and other prominent people around the universe can get their article displayed in public, then what's stopping me from getting my article out in public? Also, I will reassure you that some of the video links that are part of the references are my own creation and I just cited it from my YouTube account.

Thanks

Kind Regards Gursh
 * I am not an admin so cannot restore your deleted page. In order to have a Wikipedia article you need to be notable Notability is judged by looking at the depth of coverage in independent, reliable, secondary sources.   Novice editors are commonly advised to cite at least three independent, reliable, secondary sources containing significant coverage. Some degree of regional, statewide, national, or international media coverage is also required. YouTube is never a reliable source for anything let alone establishing your notability.

I am phisically disabled and have learning disabilitys. Somone fixed tha citations for me and said that they felt it was a good first article, I just do not understand what is wrong and what you mean with "Not seeing enough in-depth coverage in the sources". The main sorce is a recognised published story from a reputable place, also Spicehads gets mentioned in the Sunday Times article. As for the others, Spiceheads sells, vidoes and pix to Deadline news, who then sell them to National newspapers and the videos used in the citations are interlectual property of Richard Williamd the founder of Spiceheads.

Please tell me what I have to do to put this right, Spiceheads page and website are very populour with thousands of visitors everyday. Just typing Spiceheads in to Google Serch, or bing, brings up the facebook page, twitter page and website, in the first three hit's, so this to mey thinking indecates that they are notable.

I'm sorry my spelling and grammer is so bad and appeal to you to help me to get this sorted and the article published, as Spiceheads is a page that has helped meany thousands of others to overcome addiction and educated millions through it's help and support.

Many thanks Howard.

It is very difficult to find reliable sources for all of the detail. Most articles Wikipedia articles don't have reliable sources for every single detail, particularly those referring to living persons. Most of those details remain visible however, hence users tending to continue to add such material, in essence only doing exactly what has already been done from the outset.

CancerLinQ
Hello, your words 'Their own website, blogs and press releases are not suitable sources'. I believe you are mistaken here because first of all not all the press is from ascopubs and second those publications on ascopubs are written by doctors in the name of the American Asociation of Oncology they might not be fully independent from CancerLinQ but they are the most reliable source.

Page Verification
Hi Theroadislong,

I am curious if you could fill me in a little bit on the page verification process. Why does it take only a couple of days to decline a page submission, but it takes weeks to verify? Is there something wrong with my submission that could be causing a delay? I am new to Wikipedia and I hope you can help.
 * Articles are reviewed in no particular order. Your draft Draft:Arbor Investments still reads like an advert to me, with routine funding details.

Unsourced: Athel_Cornish-Bowden
Thank you for looking at my draft page on the enzyme kineticist Draft:Athel Cornish-Bowden. You left the message 'unsourced'. Could you expand on that a little so that I can improve the page? Thank you. Rhodydog (talk) 17:23, 4 August 2019 (UTC) Addendum: I think I know what you meant. I've updated the page by rewriting the research section which now has references to the various areas of research that the person did. I've also added citation numbers for some of his papers which shows that the person in question has notability. Rhodydog (talk) 18:04, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

In response to your comment: "All the sources are to her own books, Wikipedia requires in-depth coverage in independent reliable sources." I have added citation numbers to one of his books and all the influential publications I listed. His most popular book on enzyme kinetics has over 3000 citations. Most of these will not be self-citations but independent sources. As for being reliable, virtually all these citations will have come from peer-reviewed journals. Do you have any specific reliable sources in mind? For example, if I found citations to his books and papers from Nature, Science or PNAS? Rhodydog (talk) 21:26, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Please see WP:NACADEMIC for details of what is required. Theroadislong (talk) 21:33, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

That's a useful link you provided. On that page, it indicates: "Academics/professors meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable.". I believe the following criterion have been satisfied:

1. "The person's research has made a significant impact in their scholarly discipline, broadly construed, as demonstrated by independent reliable sources. The most typical way of satisfying Criterion 1 is to show that the academic has been an author of highly cited academic work – either several extremely highly cited scholarly publications or a substantial number of scholarly publications with significant citation rates."

To support this the author has, according to google scholar, 27613 citations and an h-index of 57. Both of these are substantial. His popular textbook alone has had over 3000 citations.

"Criterion 1 can also be satisfied if the person has pioneered or developed a significant new concept, technique or idea, made a significant discovery or solved a major problem in their academic discipline. In this case, it is necessary to explicitly demonstrate, by a substantial number of references to academic publications of researchers other than the person in question, that this contribution is indeed widely considered to be significant and is widely attributed to the person in question."

In this regard, I can refer you to his paper from 1974 (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/4854723) where he developed a new approach to estimating enzyme kinetic parameters. This paper has been cited 1716 times. This is just one of many examples of substantial contributions he has made over the course of his career.

4. "The person's academic work has made a significant impact in the area of higher education, affecting a substantial number of academic institutions. Criterion 4 may be satisfied, for example, if the person has authored several books that are widely used as textbooks (or as a basis for a course) at multiple institutions of higher education."

The author's texts books are used in higher education. Fundamentals of enzyme kinetics has 3120 citations; and Principles of Enzyme kinetics 706 citations.

I would also like to point you to a review of his textbook in Biochem and Molecular Biology Education (vol 40(5), 345-346, 2012) where the book received a great review. The last paragraph of the review states: "This book is a gem. The writing is clear and concise. It is filled with historical information, hints, common errors of analysis, and enough theory to enable his readers to do what Cornish-Bowden really wants, which is to understand, perform, and interpret enzyme kinetic analyses correctly and in a way which unleashes the explanatory power derived from their sound use".

In addition, the book has been adopted for classwork in at many universities. After a few minutes searching I found the following courses that use his text book:

https://site.uit.no/biocat/phd-courses/list-of-current-courses/c4-biocat-enzyme-kinetics/ (Norwegian Graduate School)

https://www.inf.ed.ac.uk/teaching/courses/csb/CSB_lecture_enzyme_kinetics.pdf (University of Edinburgh)

https://registrar.princeton.edu/course-offerings/course-details?courseid=013487&term=1164 (Princeton)

https://owaprod-pub.wesleyan.edu/reg/!wesmaps_page.html?crse=003107&term=1099 (Wesleyan University)

http://www.chembio.uoguelph.ca/educmat/chm454/outline.pdf (University of Guelph)

I can list these on the page if you think it would be useful.

His textbooks were certainly the main books we used in enzyme kinetics when I was an undergraduate. I therefore consider the author to satisfy criterion 4.

8. "The person is or has been head or chief editor of a major well-established academic journal in their subject area."

Athel Cornish-Bowden has been on the editorial board for a number of peer-reviewed journals but in particular, he was "Deputy Chairman of the Editorial Board of the Biochemical Journal, London, UK"

I therefore consider him to have satisfied criterion 8.
 * Feel free to re-submit but "as demonstrated by independent reliable sources" doesn't appear to have been met yet? Theroadislong (talk) 07:33, 5 August 2019 (UTC)

I believe the author has "as demonstrated by independent reliable sources". He has, according to google scholar, 27,613 citations and a h-index of 57. His popular textbook alone has had over 3000 citations. The google scholar citations are peer-reviewed, I'm not sure how one can do better than this. I think I might need specific suggestions that would satisfy your requirements. One thing I could do for example to illustrate independent reliable sources is to cite on the page recognized notable researchers that have commented on his work. Would that be sufficient?

I came across some additional evidence for the significance of the author's impact which might be of help to you. According to "Citation Thresholds (Essential Science Indicators)". Science Watch. Thomson Reuters. May 1, 201, I quote "During the period January 1, 2000 – February 28, 2010, a physicist had to receive 2073 citations to be among the most cited 1% of physicists in the world." 1229 citations for molecular biology and genetics. Since the author in question has 27,613 citations, he is well within the top 1% of researchers.

I've updated the article by including sources in the section "Education and Career", and adding six examples of independent reliable sources from well-cited researchers (Note this is 6 out of 27,613 possible examples). I resubmitted it and awaiting your comments. 73.140.36.239 (talk) 04:42, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
 * The sources you added to the Education and Career section do not support the content? You seem to be have a basic misunderstanding as to what constitutes an independent reliable source. Theroadislong (talk) 07:18, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

I saw your comments in the education and career section, and I think I know what you’re getting at. Essentially if I don’t have independent verification for statements I make they shouldn’t be presented until I have such evidence. Most of the his career information I used came from his online cv which of course isn’t an independent source. Eg when and where he was born, what nationality he has, whether he was an undergraduate or even a graduate at oxford (I assume his thesis is not an independent secondary source). I also don’t have actual evidence he was for example at U of Birmingham or more recently at the CNRS (although he has a CNRS url for his research page). I’ve removed all these statements.

I shall resubmit the page based on these changes. If I see anything else that is unsubstantiated for lack of evidence I’ll remove that too. I hope we can agree based on Wikipedia’s own riteria that he is a notable scientist (see previous comments). Rhodydog (talk) 20:55, 9 August 2019 (UTC)

Antisemitism
Hello. I am contacting you regarding your allegations against me and your revert of an edit I made. I am only noticing it now, as I have been busy IRL. I am very offended by your actions. It is antisemitic for Jewish people to not be able to read an article about a practice of our religion, Judaism, and I don’t see why you do not want Jewish people to not be able to read the article Nazirite. As I tried to explain to you, in Judaism we are not allowed to utter, think, read, write or type the four letters which are taught in the Torah to be the true name of Hashem, or G-d. No scholar of Judaism, no Rabbi, no sage, no figure in Jewish history have ever used the real name of G-d, and instead Adonai or Hashem is always substituted. I understand you are likely not Jewish and not aware of this practice. As the article concerns Jews, the correct term for the Jewish god should be used. To use the other name would prevent many Jewish people, especially those who are religiously observant, from reading the article and finding out about the interesting topic of Nazirites. I personally feel that it is antisemitic for the article to use the other name, as it is denying Jewish people the right to read an article about Judaism, and it culturally appropriates Jewish religion, culture and tradition and I find it very offensive, as many other people do. It is equivalent to having a depiction of Muhammed in every article regarding Islam. It is unacceptable and I hope that your actions were well-intentioned and not truly antisemitic in origin. I hope that you now understand the reason I made the edit, and I do not wish to engage with you any further and I will not be reading any possible replies on my page. Thank you. Yallayallaletsgo (talk) 10:00, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
 * I understand why you made the edit, however you are going to have a very tough time if you plan to remove the many thousands of mentions of this name from Wikipedia! To imply that I am antisemitic is abhorrent. Good day. Theroadislong (talk) 11:15, 10 August 2019 (UTC)

Your Reversion of My Recent 'Creation-Evolution Controversy' Page CorrectionCrissieLuckey (talk) 12:33, 10 August 2019 (UTC)
Although I make no pretense of expert knowledge on the subject, I do take offense at your suggestion that my recent attempted correction on the above-referenced page was invalid. By quite direct opposite, I wrote a detailed explanation for why the claim that evolution is "established ... empirical scientific fact," is false. I went on to note that it in fact does remain a theory vs. scientific law today - more than 150 years after Darwin first popularized his evolutionary view. Furthermore, I mentioned yet another easily verifiable fact that many scientific authorities reject evolution on various grounds. Then closed by one prime example cited as Darwin's own "irreducibly complex" test.

I was very careful not to interject my personal view or any pro-creation or theological persuasion in my revision. Thus, your reversion seems difficult to justify and highly suspect as biased. Please clarify at your first opportunity.

Reliable Citations
Dear Theroadislong and Wikipedia

I am very happy that you are keeping high standards for new article creation. This is much needed to maintain the quality and reliability of Wikipedia. I am all for it.

I am trying to create a page for a famous Kannada (a prominent south Indian language) film director who has made many dozens of feature films. Given, he is a regional figure and most of the sources are in Kannada, I have tried my best to cite important sources in English (including well known English newspapers like Times of India and the Hindu). Of course other cites I have cited are regional equivalents of IMDB, which you don't consider a reliable source. Please, do search around on the web to authenticate, rather than relaying only on the standard list of citations.

It will be unfortunate and a disservice if you delete this page. Thanks for your time.

Please remove your comment since I have done what you asked
Hello,

I just successfully moved my Draft article to the main namespace: Refugio I Rochin

I am new to Wikipedia, and this is my first article (and, most likely, my last).

Soon after you posted your comment, I did what you asked and removed all external links from the body of the article.

I had hoped your comment would be removed as part of the successful move, but I see it is still there, along with a new Warning box, which I'm not writing about here.

Would you kindly remove your comment, or tell me how to remove it, after your final review?

And if it is possible for me to remove the new Warning box, please tell me how.

Thank you, Mizpat (talk) 21:30, 13 August 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for removing your comment; did you also add new comments in the Warning box?
Hello again,

Thanks for removing your comment, which I fulfilled soon after you posted it: Refugio I Rochin.

I don't know how this happened, but the Warning box now contains two more messages: Multiple Issues, and Major Contributor Has Close Connection...

Did you add those two new messages (or, perhaps Multiple Issues is automatic after adding the Close Connection issue?)?

Why, and why now? Why not mention the Close Connection issue way back, in your first comment? I've been up front from the beginning about my writing this article for a friend, and I've been extra careful with wording and citations to be as neutral as possible.

Are all items (tags?) in this box things I can remove myself, without making further changes to the article?
