Marian Anderson (Insaints)

Please discuss name conventions on Marian Anderson (Insaints) Talk page. The subject's birth name should appear in the article before referring to subject only by birth surname. Thank you. Aatist (talk) 20:54, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi {{|Aatist}} - have left a message on that talkpage. Onel5969 TT me 21:02, 2 March 2018 (UTC)

Simona Fusco

While your critique of the biographical page was appreciated, there are 13 citations that speak to the tone of the article, which was not intended to be promotional, in and of itself. It is always appreciated to be extended an opportunity to improve the page or ask for assistance, rather than delete it entirely along with the draft. Please cite examples of where you deem the article promotional and allow it to be improved upon. Thanks for your kind considerationMonologuebaby (talk) 21:13, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi. First, it's polite to leave a link to the page you're discussing. Second, almost every single line in the article was promotional, rather than simply informational. The article has already been deleted, so I can't provide exact verbiage/examples, but this is the 8th time a page about this person has been deleted. In fact there was an AfD a while ago. Onel5969 TT me 21:19, 4 March 2018 (UTC)
Keep your nonsense off my page. Either be civil, or be gone. I didn't delete the article. I marked it for deletion and another editor felt exactly the same way and deleted it. Totally promotional articles don't warrant an advert cleanup. That's when an article has certain aspects which are promotional, but can be salvaged. The article which was written had virtually nothing which could be saved, and is about an individual of dubious notability. Please don't contact me again, any future messages you leave will be summarily deleted. Onel5969 TT me 22:28, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Disambiguation of Lev Leviev

Hi Onel5969,

I just saw this edit, which disambiguated Lev Leviev to someone who is AFAIK unrelated to Africa–Israel, instead of Africa–Israel's chairman. Was this intentional?

—Ynhockey (Talk) 07:29, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi Ynhockey - No, it wasn't intentional, as he's already linked earlier in the article. Meant to unlink the overlink, not sure how I mis-clicked. Thanks for catching it. Onel5969 TT me 18:05, 6 March 2018 (UTC)

Huh?

What was your reasoning for this? I assume you looked at the page history; so please explain in at least as much detail as I did. Thanks. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 13:01, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi R'n'B - sure thing. First, it was an uncited stub, which I almost always feel are better served as a redirect, or in this case a dab. Second, it was part of a series of pages about Philippine highways, which had all recently been created, and which were also dabs, so I felt it best to make it conform. Third, other than a definition intro, the only content of the page where two entries which both referred to the constituent portions of the roadway. It could definitely be turned into an article, as Certes did with N62 highway (Philippines), and it probably should, but I felt in its current condition a dab was more warranted. Hope that explains it. And nice work on the dabs, btw. Onel5969 TT me 22:27, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for the ping. A pile of Philippine road dabs has just appeared and I'm looking at those with incoming links. As I mentioned to the author, I think they should be (possibly trivial) articles rather than dabs. N64 was top of my to-do list but it's bedtime here so it'll need to wait until tomorrow unless someone else has the time and inclination to fix it. Certes (talk) 23:36, 7 March 2018 (UTC)
I've created a couple of barely notable stubs at N64 highway (Philippines) and N231 highway (Philippines), and updated {{Philippine highway network}} to link to them directly. The author of the dabs hasn't edited since, so it may have been a one-off burst of enthusiasm which is now tidied up. Certes (talk) 11:17, 8 March 2018 (UTC)
Hi Certes - Nicely done nicely! Onel5969 TT me 12:32, 8 March 2018 (UTC)

Favor

Whenever you create an article about an American movie, you should be sure to use the category "American films." All American films are to have that category, regardless of whether or not a more specific one exists. Thank you for your time. Scorpions13256 (talk) 22:20, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi Scorpions13256 - sure thing. Onel5969 TT me 22:28, 7 March 2018 (UTC)

PC (disambiguation)

I noticed your edit where you changed a link to PC to PC (disambiguation), which actually redirects back to the PC article, so it was kind of pointless. It looks like you used something called Dispenser to make the edit. Well I just wanted to let you know about the error so you could report it if it was a bug in the tool or something. Smtchahal (talk) 11:37, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

Help : review article

Hi Let me introduce myself. I am Felix and I’m a novice in Wikipedia ! I wrote an article recently, it’s a biography of a french-american journalist : Laura Haim. Now, I’m waiting for validation from wikipedian reviewer. Would you be able to help me? I have no idea how long it could take… http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Laura_Haim Many thanks for your help. Best

Hi Billybon - Will review and leave comments there. Onel5969 TT me 20:24, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

Need to discuss

Hello, If some article would be removed completely, some discussion should be done in the article's talk page before removing, I think. Cafeduke (talk) 16:02, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

  • Hi Cafeduke - Not if it's completely uncited. As per WP guidelines, any uncited material can be removed immediately. Rather than delete the article, a redirect is appropriate, until someone takes the time to reference the article. Right now it is totally WP:OR, which is a no-no. Onel5969 TT me 17:14, 16 March 2018 (UTC)
Hello, Onel5969. Then, if I would add some citations, what it will be??? Anyway, another article I wrote has a link to the article, and I'm improving the removed article just now. Cafeduke (talk) 17:31, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

Review article Laura Haïm

Hello

First of all, I would like to thank you for your reactivity and your feedback about my article : http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Draft:Laura_Haim I have made the changes you suggested. I hope it will be fine. I also would like to explain the choice of the word « tragic ». It refers to the terrorist attack in Paris in November 13th 2015 who made 129 dead. I thought, the term was appropriate. Tell me.

Kind regard Billybon (talk) 12:06, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

Draft review

Hey there! Just to let you know, there's currently a review request on the Draft page for Better Call Saul (season 2). Is it okay if you review it. The Optimistic One (talk) 17:04, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Hi The Optimistic One - There was a copyvio issue. Left a message on the draft. Fix that and you're good to go. Nice job. Onel5969 TT me 20:02, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
Where exactly in the article is there a copyvio issue? The Optimistic One (talk) 21:29, 25 March 2018 (UTC)

Draft re-review

Hey there! Just to let you know, the copyvio from the article has been removed thanks to myself and Primefac. There's currently another review request on the Draft page for Better Call Saul (season 2). The Optimistic One (talk) 06:05, 28 March 2018 (UTC)

I left a comment on Draft:Better Call Saul (season 2) regarding the "copyvio", but I'll leave a comment here as well. There was definitely no copyvio, I can't see the diffs anymore or what exactly was removed, but if you're implying content was copied from that alchetron.com website, then it definitely was not. Everything on that website is copied from Wikipedia. Most of the content on the BCS S2 article originated from the main BCS series article. All you have to do is search an article on that website and see it's a mirror of the Wikipedia article; though it may be an older version, because obviously it always won't be updated to match here. Just look at Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, or Lost; they're all copied from Wikipedia, plus just look at the bottom of the page it lists the Wikipedia article as its "Reference". Drovethrughosts (talk) 13:41, 28 March 2018 (UTC)
Can you review the draft again please Onel5969. The Optimistic One (talk) 04:30, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
I'm waiting for the current redirect to be deleted so I can move it to mainspace. Onel5969 TT me 10:31, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Important Notice

Information icon There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is User:31.154.71.87 and Israel-related edits.. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 19:31, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

This is nothing to worry about, you're only involved in a peripheral way. This is because you disambiguated Palestine to Palestinian Territories incorrectly, as we're dealing with Mandatory Palestine and Ottoman Palestine. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 19:33, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
Sorry about that Bellezzasolo - I try get the era correct when dealing with dabbing Palestine. Not sure how I missed that one. Onel5969 TT me 19:43, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
No problem, it's an easy mistake to make. Just notifying you because it's your disambig on a couple of edits, it might get brought up. ∰Bellezzasolo✡ Discuss 19:46, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Zoee

When you nominated Zoee for deletion, you added onto the old AfD in 2006 instead of creating a new nomination. To do this, tag the article with {{subst:afdx|2nd}} and follow the usual steps. The new AfD is here. LaundryPizza03 (talk) 19:43, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

Thanks LaundryPizza03 - I did that using the curate tool, and did not know how to fix it. I left a message on an admin's page for them to take a look. Thanks for fixing it for me. Onel5969 TT me 19:53, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

ACTRIAL:

  • ACTRIAL's six month experiment restricting new page creation to (auto)confirmed users ended on 14 March. As expected, a greatly increased number of unsuitable articles and candidates for deletion are showing up in the feed again, and the backlog has since increased already by ~30%. Please consider reviewing a few extra articles each day.

Paid editing

  • Now that ACTRIAL is inoperative pending discussion, please be sure to look for tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary.

Subject-specific notability guidelines

Nominate competent users for Autopatrolled

  • While patrolling articles, if you find an editor that is particularly competent at creating quality new articles, and that user has created more than 25 articles (rather than stubs), consider nominating them for the 'Autopatrolled' user right HERE.

News

  • The next issue Wikipedia's newspaper The Signpost has now been published after a long delay.
