Hi Variation 25.2. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for TechnoLabs Software Solutions, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. ''Please note that being unsourced is not a speedy deletion criteria; however, it could be given as a reason for a Proposed Deletion tag, which is a different process. Please post here if you have any questions.'' Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Thanks! 331dot (talk) 13:41, 24 July 2015 (UTC) Thank you, I will keep in mind.

Speedy deletion tag of Munder Sharma
Hi! I'd like to ask that you please use extra caution when tagging pages for speedy deletion. The speedy deletion criteria are very specific, and should not be used unless the article meets the individual criterion in every way. For example, you tagged this article under G1 for being patent nonsense. This is only for pages whose content cannot be understood at all. It does not include bad English, which I think is how the page in this case could be described. The text was understandable, though, so G1 does not apply. I changed your tag to an A7 tag because it was about a person and did not assert their significance. Please let me know if you have any questions. Cheers, Nick&#8288;—&#8288;Contact/Contribs 07:04, 1 August 2015 (UTC) Thanks for letting me know.Variation 25.2 (talk) 12:31, 1 August 2015 (UTC)

Elee Kay
No need to go to AfD for a clear-cut case such as Elee Kay. Speedy deletion as NN was all that it needed, plus an autobio warning to the user. -- Alexf(talk) 17:39, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Altered speedy deletion rationale: Ranjeev Verma
Hello Variation 25.2, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I deleted Ranjeev Verma, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided. The speedy deletion criteria are extremely narrow and specific, and the process is more effective if the correct criterion is used. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  17:54, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Lima express deletion
I am adding various references to improve the quality of the article so that it is not deleted. Please discus at Talk:Lima Express Sparkyb10123 (talk) 19:24, 12 September 2015 (UTC)

New user page tagging
Thank for your edits to Wikipedia (WP)

I notice you are tagging some new users articles for speedy deletion via page curation, As these are new editors, having the first message on their userpage a bland deletion notice may be rather off-putting.

I would suggest welcoming them first, using templates like as I did here, or, as I did here for examples. These welcome messages also direct the editor to more information to help them create more appropriate new pages, or edit them more correctly. Other welcomes, warnings and similar tags are available via a tool called WP:Twinkle. 220  of  Borg 19:39, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

re Baz Persaud, Inc.
This edit here to the page creators talk-page doesn't appear to have worked as it isn't visible on the page. I think you need to add the deletion criteria to the template. 220  of  Borg 20:03, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

New Page Patrol
NPP is not for beginners. I notice that with  only  225 edits to  mainspace that you are a very new user and that you would generally need a lot more experience before trying your hand at patrolling new pages. There are easier tasks such as Counter Vandalism that would enable you to get your feet wet on maintenance tasks more easily. Now that you have over 200 mainspace edits you can enroll at the WP:CVUA to learn more about it. Happy editing! --Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:53, 15 September 2015 (UTC)


 * I have to agree with Kudpung here. A bit more experience would be good for you. 220  of  Borg 10:18, 15 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Derek Tait
Hello Variation 25.2. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Derek Tait, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: his work has been featured in newspapers and magazines around the world.is a credble assertion of importance sufficient to preclude A7. Thank you.  Ϣere Spiel  Chequers  23:41, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for persistent disruptive editing. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice:. S warm  ♠  07:48, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Please brush up on WP:EW and WP:AGF, and in the future, discuss disputes rather than deleting/reverting, attempt to reach an agreement, compromise (something the other user was clearly attempting to do), or consensus to support your position, and if necessary, seek out dispute resolution or report an offender to administrators if the situation warrants it. I understand you yourself were acting in good faith and if you can give me an assurance that you'll be able to do so in the future I will have no problem unblocking you.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

License tagging for File:U The End A album.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:U The End A album.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:05, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

Are you a paid editor?
This edit introduced so many primary sources and promotional wording towards the subject that I have to ask the following.

Hello,. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article Alexandra Cousteau, you may have a conflict of interest. People with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, see the conflict of interest guideline and frequently asked questions for organizations. In particular, please:


 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, its competitors, or projects and products you or they are involved with;
 * instead, propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the template);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use require disclosure of your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation.

Please familiarize yourself with relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing, and autobiographies. Thank you. Brianhe (talk) 02:17, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

Comments and requests
Wikipedia is a widely-used reference work and managing conflict of interest is essential for ensuring the integrity of Wikipedia and retaining the public's trust in it. As in academia, COI is managed here in two steps - disclosure and a form of peer review. Please note that there is no bar to being part of the Wikipedia community if you have a conflict of interest; there are just some things we ask you to do (and if you are paid, some things you need to do).

Disclosure is the most important, and first, step. While I am not asking you to disclose your identity (anonymity is strictly protecting by out WP:OUTING policy) would you please disclose if you have some connection with Alexandra Cousteau, Discovery Channel, or her causes such as Global Water Challenge, Oceana and Pacific Institute Advisory Council, et cetera? You can answer how ever you wish (giving personally identifying information or not), but if there is a connection with Alexandra Cousteau, Discovery Channel, or her causes such as Global Water Challenge, Oceana and Pacific Institute Advisory Council, et cetera, please disclose it. After you respond (and you can just reply below), perhaps we can talk a bit about editing Wikipedia, to give you some more orientation to how this place works. You can reply here - I am watching this page.
 * I am environmental scientist who happens to know about Alexandra Cousteau through her works around the world. I do not think this creates any kind of conflict of interest as I have no particular connection with her. If I misunderstand something, please let me know. Thank you.Variation 25.2 (talk) 17:21, 5 February 2017 (UTC)
 * I accept your prompt reply on good faith. Apologies if I mixed up your edits with prior promotional content, but some of the sources you used did seem inappropriately close to the subject. Other editors may have questions for you, but I'll step away now. - Brianhe (talk) 18:42, 5 February 2017 (UTC)


 * Brianhe has asked me to take a look at some things and I agree that some of your edits appear suspiciously like paid editing. Can you please explain where you obtained the dates of birth for Tracey Wilen and Stevie Mackey? I've been unable to verify them from the sources cited (granted I can't access all of the Wilen ones) and also been unable to find them anywhere else online. Thanks SmartSE (talk) 10:37, 6 February 2017 (UTC)


 * , I understand your concern as I have asked other editors the same question in the past. In general, you may want to know that subjects generally have private websites managed by admins who know well about them. Therefore, I simply contact admins who provide personal information as soon as my noble intention is known. It's that simple. - Variation 25.2 (talk) 18:22, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

Draft:Tracey Wilen concern
Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Draft:Tracey Wilen, a page you created, has not been edited in 5 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 21:09, 24 September 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Unilever Bangladesh Limited


The article Unilever Bangladesh Limited has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No evidence this subsidiary passes WP:NCOMPANY. Redirecting to parent company Unilever is an option (also per SOFTDELETE/PRESERVE)."

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.

Orphaned non-free image File:Rocket-400x400.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Rocket-400x400.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 04:08, 27 May 2020 (UTC)
