neologism? p.s.
A good way to test something as a "neogolism" is to do a simple Google search of the word in question, and observe the nature of those search-results. If the word comes up in varied established historical and/or established modern usage, it would not match the definition of a "neogolism". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohiopioneers (talk • contribs) 15:17, 20 April 2012 (UTC)

neologism?
As per your decision that my Wiki page about the River named "Canesadooharie"... can you please elaborate why you feel that the word, "Canesadooharie" that has been widely in use in historical references as well as in modern geographic references, is a NEOLOGISM (your designation). Based on Wiki's designation of NEOLOGISM, that issue does not apply to this. I can work on adding more references, although the one reference that I sited should have been adequate to establish that the word "Canesadooharie" is not a neologism, and that it is worthy of a special separate Wiki entry. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohiopioneers (talk • contribs) 14:51, 20 April 2012 (UTC)
 * The decline process doesn't give many options, and neologism is the closest I could find to that. Paleologism would probably be more accurate. One reference does not give much notability. Also, couldn't all of the text just be merged into the Black River article? Zach Vega (talk)

Thanks Zach...I had considered adding it into the Black River article, but it would be difficult to condense for brevity and still be concise enough. Plus the fact that the original author quite specifically indicates that the river which he was writing about, was not the Black River, so it seemed logical just to have a separate entry. I will work on adding some additional inline references to it, and maybe it will eventually pass the muster of a worthy separate entry. I can see that the main issue would be having a Wiki-reviewer actually read the entire story which the original author had published, in order to see that his very work substantiates everything that I had restated for the article. However, I am sure that Wiki-reviewers haven't that much free time to delve deeply into each issue. So I will keep reworking it. Thanks again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ohiopioneers (talk • contribs) 14:54, 21 April 2012 (UTC)

Bob_Bell_(inventor)
Hi Zach,

I am curious about your decision to allow Bob_Bell_(inventor) to become an article. To me, the draft looked like a promotional piece with no RS support suggesting that the subject matter was notable. What about the draft made you decide it was worthy of being published as a real Wikipedia article? Thanks for your input. Cheers, Ebikeguy (talk) 01:48, 26 April 2012 (UTC)


 * The fact that Bob Bell served as a city councilor in a metropolitan area. It's better organized than some of the other stuff I've seen go through AFC. Zach Vega (talk to me) 01:53, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
 * OK. Fair enough.  I stumbled on the article when I was in the process of deleting multiple commercial links the author had inserted in articles regarding Bell's inventions, so I suppose I am hyper-sensitive about the promotional aspects of the article.  I think I shall lurk for a while and see how others react.  Cheers, Ebikeguy (talk) 02:11, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi Mr. Vega. I saw that you recently reviewed my article for creation which was conserve wildlife foundation of New Jersey. The site is: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Conserve_Wildlife_Foundation_of_New_Jersey

Thank you for reviewing my article. I know that the problem found with my article was with the notability. I spoke to a few other admins and went to the live chat talk pages. They all told me to find 2-3 news or magazine articles. After I learned about that, I added three online news articles which were articles that related to the foundation. Were those articles not what I was supposed to find? Did I reference them incorrectly? Can you please help me? I thought the references numbered: 3, 21, 25 were acceptable news articles.

The article submitted can also be found on my userpage, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Riverline5

Thank you.Riverline5 (talk) 19:05, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Zach, Thanks for taking a look at the article I was creating.

According to the feedback I think the only thing that was missing were better references. I don't have a lot of references because I am the major source for the article (I was one of the producers of the movie). I used the same format that was used for another film (Answer This!) that my actor was in. Can you let me know what I need to change? I'll get right on it! Thanks!

Valravn
Hi Zach! Thanks for reviewing my Valravn article. However, I am going to ask you to reconsider your evaluation. :-)

I don't know how interested you are in the Scandinavian folk revival, but I think most people who follow that area would agree that Valravn is one of the top dozen or so bands, and probably the top Danish folktronica band. It's no accident that there are articles on the band in six versions of Wikipedia (Danish, German, French, Dutch, Polish, and Russian) and five cross-references within the English Wikipedia (here, here, here, here, and here).

More to the point, the current article meets the Wikipedia standard for notability of musical groups. My understanding of the standard is as follows:


 * There are 12 criteria for notability.
 * To meet the overall standard, a group only has to meet one criterion.

Valravn clearly meets Criterion #8:


 * "Has won or been nominated for a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno, Mercury, Choice or Grammis award."

As documented in the article, it's been nominated for three Danish Music Awards, the Danish equivalent of the Swedish Grammis.

I'd argue that it meets several other criteria, as well as the "Golden Rule" of substantial, reliable coverage, but I don't want to write a long essay here. It's clear the group is notable. Cheers, Chris 24.69.174.26 (talk) 18:56, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Facebook Cover Art
Why was this submission declined? There's no reason listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Akaliquid (talk • contribs) 02:49, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
 * First, couldn't you just put this into the Facebook features article? It doesn't seem that it merits its own article. Second, you didn't put inline citations into your submission. You gotta have those. Zach Vega  ( talk to me ) 11:11, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to OS X Mountain Lion does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! JetBlast (talk) 12:39, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

MESDA group
Dear Mr. Vega,

I would like to ask why the article MESDA Group has not been approved.

Thanks,

 * It was because 1/2 the sections in the article were unsourced, meaning they didn't have incline citations. Adding citations to those 2 or 3 sections will make it be approved. Also, adding more information, especially about the programs, will increase the article's quality rating after it's approved. Zach Vega  ( talk to me ) 23:26, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Teagle Foundation
Hi Zach, Thank you so very much for getting back to me re: "Teagle Foundation." I'd really like to work to get a dedicated page for the Foundation (I see it's now referenced as a part of Walter Teagle's biography). This is my second attempt at the page, but I'm not quite sure how to amend it.Your guidance is greatly appreciated.Teagle foundation (talk) 21:23, 27 August 2012 (UTC)Desiree
 * Yo. Well, I don't really know where to start. It seems that majority of the article is copied from their website. You should check out tips on writing an article, and when done with that, check out our minimum standard for inline citations. Zach Vega  ( talk to me ) 22:33, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

new CTfastrak page you reviewed
--Fmamradio1 (talk) 13:16, 28 August 2012 (UTC) Hello. Thanks for reviewing the CTfastrak page. I saw I need to add citations. So, I will add several citations/footnotes and resubmit. For the record, I am part of the official entity for this huge transportation project in connecticut. so, i will make sure everything is backedup factually. thanks. fmamradio1
 * Great. Get back to me once you have added them. Zach Vega  ( talk to me ) 23:03, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

Degrassi timeline
Thank you for reviewing my article. I am one of the frequent editors on the Degrassi page. A timeline identical to the one I created already exists on that page of characters, but other editors, and myself, feel it's too large for that page. That is why I created a new page, and was planning on linking to it. Would making my timeline a template help in this? Do you have any other suggestions that may assist? Thanks! - PUNKMINKIS (TALK) 14:36, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Just make it a template. You don't even need references on templates. Zach Vega  ( talk to me ) 22:55, 29 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Anyway I could get some assistance? I've been editing for a while, but I'm fairly new to the "create a page/template" thing.. - PUNKMINKIS (TALK) 01:23, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
 * And thank you for your assistance. I wish I knew from the beginning how simple that was. - PUNKMINKIS (TALK) 04:11, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

re: Bryan Bell entry
Hi, Wow, I can't believe the article was BLANK!

I am having trouble I guess. I tried to put the article together AGAIN, and SAVE and then click the resubmit button but it Seems to come up blank every time. TIPS?

thanks - Paul — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pdbmusic (talk • contribs) 19:42, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks to you...
All my thanks to you... Actually i'm writing a book about tunnels, and i am using the wikipedia to found some data from time to time. And my personal opinion is that if i can help it, i will do. I'm a surveyor engineer... First of all, i will begin with tunnels. Later, survey, maybe...

The problem is like always... TIME!

AFC rejections
Hi! I noticed at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/NORD-STAR that you declined the submission with "doesn't meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations". Are you sure that's what you meant to do? The AFC Reviewing instructions state under "When to decline a submission" - "Step 4: Invalid reasons" that one shouldn't decline an article just because it uses general references to support some or all of the material. Though preferable, it isn't yet policy that all articles must have inline citations.

The NORD-STAR submission probably doesn't have enough independent sources anyway, and there's at least one paragraph that's a copyvio from one of the refs: http://www.cspr.se/forskning/nordstar?l=en too, so there's plenty of scope for rejection under other grounds. Will you have another look at it? Best, —S MALL  JIM   22:05, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
 * 😮 I can't believe that I have spent a year on here, and thought that inline citations were required. Thanks for the heads up dude. Zach Vega  ( talk to me ) 23:32, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
 * No probs. The ilc template parameter needs rephrasing too - I had to look at it hard to see what it was getting at. Maybe tomorrow. —S MALL  JIM   23:50, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
