Hi SwisterTwister,

A couple months ago you reviewed my article and had said it looked notable but needed more sources and to notify you once I have made the proper changes. I have made revisions to the article (Hubbell Water Heaters) and would appreciate if you could look over it again. Thanks for your time. Carrierc (talk) 14:49, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: User:Adr2609/Accolite

Hello SwisterTwister. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of User:Adr2609/Accolite, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: I see no reason that this page needs to be deleted under G6 - please provide a specific reason. Thank you. Jackmcbarn (talk) 23:53, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Jackmcbarn Actually that is applicable for the new WP:G6 which allows deletion for unused drafts with nothing but the basic article wizard content, "Deleting userspace drafts with nothing more than the default Article Wizard text if the user creating the page has not been active for at least one year". SwisterTwister talk 23:58, 12 January 2016 (UTC)

Interesting. I wasn't aware of that change. I've now deleted the page, and I also created {{db-blankdraft}} for future use to clarify the reason for this deletion. Jackmcbarn (talk) 00:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Review of "Legendary Pictures"

Hi SwisterTwister! I just wanted to bring to your attention that at 03:10, 12 January 2016 UTC you marked Legendary Pictures as reviewed, even though the page was blank at the time.

Hi SwisterTwister! Thank you for reviewing my draft. I tried to put more sources into it and external links as well. Hope the article is becoming Wiki-worth soon. --Robertsan (talk) 10:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi again! Could you please take a look at my draft again? There are a lot of references, taken from art magazines, lifestyle-magazines, newspapers, and museum-sites. I added the names of the authors of the articles, where available. The most articles are in Portugues, not in English but I think nearly everybody can imagine the content. If you dislike some of the references, delete them. There are enough good ones, I am sure.

Draft talk pages

Hello. Please do not remove relevant content from draft talk pages when you move them into mainspace (as you did at Talk:The Crown of Ptolemy for example). Thanks — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 13:25, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi MSGJ - I'm a (talk page stalker), but I do some work at AfC. I'm not sure that Swister removed those comments. I think that perhaps it's something that happens automatically when the draft gets approved. Can't be positive, as I can't think of an example of a draft I approved which had anything on the talk page. But when I look at your example, the change to the talk page was done using the AFCH script. If so, it's something that maybe should be brought up on the AfC talk page, to make reviewers aware of in the future as something they should be on the lookout for. I know I certainly haven't been looking for it. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 16:39, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for your reply. The script should definitely not be doing this! I'll chase it up, but a confirmation from SwisterTwister that this removal was unintentional would be helpful. Regards — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 17:28, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

MSGJ Of course that was not intentional and that actually happened because I tagged the former Crown of Ptolemy page to allow moving the draft (see Logs) so that's why it removed the talk page contents. SwisterTwister talk 18:47, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

No, that's not the reason actually. The removed text was part of the draft talk and not what was there previously. So it does seem to be a script error. Anyway it's now being investigated at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Articles for creation/Helper script. Thank you for your time — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:40, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

PS, please can you archive your talk page?! — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 20:40, 13 January 2016 (UTC)

Many thanks for reviewing my contribution. In my opinion I have included reliable sources in my article and in my opinion it is fulfiling the guidlines for academics at least in two points. Maybe I should move note (1) into references and include note (7) in the reference chapter. Then it would eventually become clearer. So my question is simply would it suffice? What shall be described differently? Also some links are to pages which exist only in the German version of Wikipedia. I am not aware how to link to those pages directly, so maybe this has also been contributed to the decline?

Hi there Swister Twister, this is Stephanie Rawson here. I'm part of Alesa's management team and we have been working on her Wikipedia page. I am writing to contest the rejection of the page. Alesa Lajana has been released on Australia's premier classical music label, and is working with both Grammy and ARIA winning artists (all of whom have Wikipedia pages. In addition, I think you will find that the references that my assistant provided in the writing of the page are very notable publicatiions in Australia eg. The Courier-Mail, Music Forum Magazine, WQ (Writers Queensland) Magazine, AND the National Library of Australia. If you are looking for another artist with a page that has similar references you can refer to Thelma Plum, or Shane Howard, both Australian aritsts. Is the person reviewing this in Australia?

Thank you Stephanie Rawson

  • Draft:George Burr Richardson (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Please note that little has been written about geologist George Burr Richardson (1872-1949), though he merits attention because he made significant contributions during his decades of work for the U.S. Geological Survey in its early days(when there were only about 12 geologists in the Survey). Richardson's contributions are outlined in the material presented. A particularly significant contribution is described in the first paragraph. I hoped to include Dr. Richardson in Wikipedia because he does warrant attention and little has been written about him.

I have cited the one publication that provides a significant amount of information about him (Richards RW. Memorial to George Burr Richardson. Proceedings Volume of the Geological Society of America Annual Report for 1951 July 1952:135-140. I would be glad to scan that piece and submit it, if desired.) Unfortunately, only brief references are made to Richardson in other material, such as mention of his appointment as a Fellow in geology to Johns Hopkins University (The American Naturalist, vol. 33, Jan. 1, 1899, p. 33.

I would very much appreciate a re-review in light of the above.

  • Draft:George Burr Richardson (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I think I did not correctly submit my request for a re-review of George Burr Richardson, so here I am again. I wrote the article about Richardson (1892-1949) because little has been written about him, yet he warrants attention because of his substantive contributions to geology during his decades of work for the U.S. Geological survey during its early days (when there were only about 12 geologists in the Survey). Richardson's contributions are outlined in the article, and the first paragraph describes a prominent one. The first reference cited is the only reference I could find that has a significant amount of information about Richardson. Other material just makes a brief reference to him, such as reporting his appointment as a fellow in geology to Johns Hopkins University (The American naturalist, vol. 33, Jan. 1, 1899, p. 33). In light of this information, please do reconsider the article. I would very much appreciate that.A.T.Gasch (talk) 07:00, 14 January 2016 (UTC)

Not a single one as all come from RYA governed pages, yet they meet the notability standards. How is it possible? Is my entry being discriminated now?

Hi SwisterTwister,

Thank you for taking the time to review my draft article on Grovo. I'm disappointed it was declined, but looking forward to improving it.

Would you mind clarifying your comments so I can make the appropriate edits?

In your note, it states, "Wikipedia requires significant coverage about the subject in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." However, I included 26 references from reliable, notable sources, including CNN Money, TechCrunch, PC Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine, The Wall Street Journal, and more. I could include many more references from objective sources (such as Bloomberg News, The New York Times, etc.), but currently every sentence in the article already has a reference associated with it. I'm happy to list those additional sources at the end if that's helpful. Please let me know.

Thank you in advance for your help, Goodwork84 (talk) 01:59, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Just following up to see if you can provide any additional information to guide me forward in my drafting process.

Thank you, Goodwork84 (talk) 04:46, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi SwisterTwister, I'm not actually requesting a re-review. The link I clicked on said I could ask you a question by clicking there. I see that you said I needed more in-depth, third-party sources. I wonder if it would be better for me to remove some of the more programmatic elements from the entry and stick to more basic facts about Metro TeenAIDS. Rather than getting more sources, would it be better to reduce the number of things that have website sources or are not cited?

Recent CSD tags

Hi, SwisterTwister,
I can see you've been very busy but I was just curious why you were seeking out and tagging all of these user subpages, often from users who are inactive. It doesn't seem like a very urgent task unless there are BLP or copyright violations. I can't tell you how to spend your editing time (and plenty of editors criticize how I spend mine) but I hope it is not a big effort to track down these subpages because I don't think they are harming the project unlike vandalism or attack pages. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:18, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Liz Of course but I've been helping to clean Category:Stale userspace drafts which has had over 40,000 pages and these are actually applicable for the new WP:G6, "Deleting userspace drafts containing only the default Article Wizard text if the user who created the page has been inactive for at least one year". At best, it simply helps to clean and I enjoy it. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 22:22, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

I appreciate the explanation, SwisterTwister, and for your viewing my question as an inquiry and not a criticism. It's just as you go through these CSD categories there are pages you typically see and all of these user subpages stuck out as something different. Thanks. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:25, 15 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello again SwisterTwister. I've been deleting a lot of your G6 nominations, and I thank you again for your efforts to clean up stale userspace drafts. Most of your nominations clearly fall under G6, but some are less clear and I see you sometimes adding G11 etc, which is great. I am curious though why you don't just tag some of the less clear cut ones under G13?--Mojo Hand (talk) 15:50, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Mojo Hand - Because, to my knowledge, the draft has to have been rejected, "This applies to rejected or unsubmitted Articles for creation pages that have not been edited in over six months", and several of these were never actually submitted. Thanks again for deleting, SwisterTwister talk 17:56, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

I don't do too much in AFC (and thus no expert), but wouldn't these qualify as "unsubmitted"?--Mojo Hand (talk) 18:15, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Ah, I suppose, I can start adding G13 along with the G6 tag. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 18:20, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello there, thank you for taking the time to review my first ever wiki entry on Val Denham. You have rejected it because there isn't enough "ssignificant coverage" - yes, true, I was surprised about the lack of online coverage, too. Here is an artist with 2 books published about her art, not self-published, not print-on-demand, but actual indepedentt books - and that isn't enough to make her notable? Very weird. Does your review and your decision to not run the aricle smell of transphobia? I don't think so. Can a person's notability be measured by the times he/she is referenced online? Let's not even go there. Please take the time and rethink your decision. Or let me know how to abide by your standards. Thank you claus Thujone 23 (talk) 09:03, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

  • Draft:R. Bruce Dold (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Actually I'm not requesting a re-review. I thought this was borderline for notability, and the subject (R. Bruce Dold) is notoriously publicity-shy, so it is very difficult to get independent sourcing on him. He is quite well known in Chicago at least, appearing on public TV and various panels, and because he shows up as a red link on a few pages, I thought it might be useful to have a page on him, even a stub. No big deal.

David Lodge is a major contemporary British author. The book I wrote about, The Man Who Wouldn't Get Up and Other Stories, is the only one listed in Lodge's Wikipedia entry that has no link/entry currently. The book is a limited edition, so it is owned by relatively few libraries (see Worldcat record: http://www.worldcat.org/title/man-who-wouldnt-get-up-and-other-stories/oclc/40801398&referer=brief_results). I own a copy and wanted to complete the information available on David Lodge's Wikipedia entry. (If it is of any interest, I am a librarian/professor at a university in NYC.) Thanks for your consideration.

Hello SwisterTwister! I've got a question for you – I've come across an article on a failed pilot for a TV series: Members Only (TV series). It is well sourced (so passes WP:GNG, I guess).

There are additional sources available at Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL specifically in the first link of simple web searches, that could be useful to perform Quality improvement efforts on the article.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Sarah_Tkotsch

Hi,

the article is about a German actress. She is known from Television in Germany. In German wikipedia she has an own article. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Tkotsch

I translated this article for English Version from wikipedia. So don't know exactly what you mean if you stated that the person isn't notable enough since she has already an article in wikipedia.

Pepino2410 (talk) 09:39, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi Pepino2410 - Each Wikipedia has its own standards for what constitutes notability. English Wikipedia has higher standards. In this case, the two overriding guidelines would be WP:GNG and WP:NACTOR. Clearly this actor does not meet NACTOR, and with the current referencing, the article doesn't pass WP:GNG. We'd need at least 3 in-depth sources from independent reliable sources to meet those guidelines. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 12:40, 17 January 2016 (UTC) (talk page stalker)

(talk page stalker)

I have looked at de:Sarah Tkotsch.

It claims she has appeared in de:Spuk am Tor der Zeit. There is no mention of her in that article.

It claims she has appeared in de:Good Bye, Lenin!. There is no mention of her in that article.

It claims she has appeared in de:Polizeiruf 110. There is no mention of her in that article.

A quick check all the other films and TV shows she is asserted to have appeared in brings up similar results.

Peter in Australia aka --Shirt58 (talk) 13:43, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi,

thank you both for the respective answer. Would it help to shorten the filmography?

In "Spuk am Tor der Zeit" as well as "Good bye Lenin" she played minor parts.

In "GZSZ", "In aller Freundschaft", "Dog with a Blog", "Q Pootle" she played or dubbed a main part. Of course she does not mentioned in the linked articles. These articles are about the series in general and the articles about the dubbing are the english original ones. She dubbed the German part.

It is my first article. I thought in English wikipedia I linked English version of the articles. Is this correct?

Spuk am Tor der Zeit http://www.cinema.de/film/spuk-am-tor-der-zeit,1312184.html

but these are German sources since she is a German actress and voice actress. Could I use these in English Wikipedia? My intention was to link to English Versions within Wikipedia that English users can inform about the respective projects.

Is that the wrong way?

Please don't get me wrong. I would not claim about the fact that the article was declined. I am just not sure if German sources help in English wikipedia or if it is better to shorten the article and only write about the main projects.

What would you suggest?

Pepino2410 (talk) 16:34, 17 January 2016 (UTC)

Can't understand this decission, related former actors from GZSZ have articels, for instance: Janina Uhse, Sandra Keller (actress) (both with only german sources (besides imdb)).

The new page patrol now vs. 1 year ago

I was just thinking-the new page patrol is very clean compared to one year ago, it seems the past 6 months we have gotten through articles really fast. True every so often we do slow down, and there were times where there were only a couple thousand unpatrolled articles, but that usually didn't last long, now we seem to usually have it a around 1K-2K unpatrolled articles and it seems consistent! (I do remember around last March it got cleaned up so much that we had over 4K patrolled in one week!), but I must say we are all doing great work now, hope we keep it up!

Speedy deletion G1

Hi. I see you have been tagging quite a few user space pages with speedy deletion WP:G1. However, the description for G1 says:

"This applies to pages consisting entirely of incoherent text or gibberish with no meaningful content or history. It does not cover poor writing, partisan screeds, obscene remarks, implausible theories, vandalism or hoaxes, fictional material, coherent non-English material, or poorly translated material. Nor does it apply to user sandboxes or other pages in the user namespace. In short, if you can understand it, G1 does not apply."

Most of these pages are in clear and easily understandable English (even if factually incorrect), and they are all in user namespace - and so they are not eligible for G1 on at least those two counts. I think G3 (vandalism) is probably a more appropriate tag for some articles like these, or perhaps U5 (or even G10 for a few). Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 08:35, 19 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi there,

  I really believe this man meets the notability requirements, but I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Can you guide me?

  The book he writes on Adobe's Premiere Pro system (classroom in a book) is the standard textbook used by most film schools around the world to train new generations of film and TV editors. He is a well known name within among the technology professionals community. I've listed 15 interviews with him by major outlets from around the world and quite a few references. His book is on the shelves of Barnes and Noble and Waterstones, and many more.

  Would it work better as an article if I removed some information to clarify why he's notable? I realize I may have included too much variety in the information I provided. I suppose there's no need to include all of the filmography; however, some of that material is relevant because it connects to the books he writes and public speaking.

Hello. I re-submitted the Jordan Lawson page because he is a notable and recognizable actor/musician in Los Angeles. I added several other references at the bottom of the page. They include interviews, resume, current and past work, questions and answers in the interviews that verify his work and reputation as an artist. Please review these additions that I have added. Thank you

Hello, my article was declined for notability reasons. However, this band has clearly gained notability. The band has made the US college radio charts. The link provided to the charts is an accepted, official link to published radio charts. Proper research on your part would have confirmed that. In the guidelines for notability, it clearly states that appearing on a radio chart is grounds for notability. Appearing on a national radio chart is no easy or small task. If I have followed the guidelines then my article should be accepted.

Guidelines for improving references - declined draft

Hello,

you have reviewed my submitted draft Draft:Pavo_Barišić and I would like to know how to improve it. It have been turn down because of lack of third party strong references about persons notability. Academic person I am writing about meets at least 2 criteria for academic notability (was editor-in-chief of leading Croatian philosophical journal and head of central institution for Philosophy in Croatia for 10 years) and each of those have third party reference in draft. References are, for example, Croatian Encyclopedia and official website of Institute of Philosophy in Zagreb. Both of those are central Croatian institutions in their field. Is potential problem that most of the references are on Croatian and German language, while only personal website and official website of Institute of Philosophy in Zagreb provide informations in English (both are in section for external links) ?

Thank you for your time and help Pavao (talk) 13:41, 21 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for looking over this, I have found two more independent sources, including another text book. This is as much as I can find at the moment, I'm hoping that other readers can contribute more (especially if they have access to journal article subscriptions). There seem to be more sources for this draft now than the other software published in this category, but any further feedback is helpful...

A kitten for you!

Thank you for a heads-up on an AfD last month. sadly, I was busy working the holiday season and then went on a two-week vacation, so I never saw that.

Draft:Quadcopter flight controller

I see two reliable source cited ([1] [2]). The submission clearly needs work but I think notability is established and the article would not be likely deleted. A redlink on Flight controller (disambiguation) is looking coverage of this topic. Any more details on why this was rejected. I'm prepared to help Maxorazon with this if necessary. ~Kvng (talk) 16:32, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

The draft can be deleted for sure as you mentioned it is some very poor crafting. I have been working on a resubmit for three weeks now. Chat incoming. BR Maxorazon (talk) 17:04, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

You marked Draft:Kian Lawley as "under review" on January 18. Has that one fallen through the cracks? Or do you intend to accept it and need the redirect at Kian Lawley gone? In the latter case, ping me. For now I have reverted the "under review" edit so it's submitted again. Huon (talk) 19:11, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Kian Lawley

I believe the subject is more than notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. There are numerous sources in the article that are directly just about him, and the others mention him more than just briefly. More sources can be added if needed, but I believe he is more notable than a lot of other people that have articles on Wikipedia (some with very few references). Would you accept with more sources, or what exactly are you looking for? Andise1 (talk) 19:45, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Star Gazers

Swister Twister, did you start the page for the 2016 season of "Star Gazers" (the astronomy show)? I was rather surprised to see it. I've been working on the episode listings for that show for a number of years now. There was once another person who worked on "Star Gazers" as well; but, he has since retired from Wikipedia (so, I had been "going it solo" ever since). I'm glad to see new interest in the TV show.

Lisa Christine Holmberg

First of all, I'd like to say thank you for reviewing several of my pages that I started, Metalheads, Rising Falcon Cinema, and Gregory Cahill. Secondly, I'd like to start a page called Lisa Christine Holmberg, but it seems that I can't due to former deletions. I've found ten notable newspaper articles in my research to reference on the page, which exceeds the necessary four or five sources to prove basic notability. Not to mention that the page is already referenced on another Wikipedia page. How should I proceed? Thank you for your time. WikiConqueror (talk) 04:33, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

WikiConqueror Hmm, frankly, it would depend whether it now better satisfies WP:CREATIVE. SwisterTwister talk 04:59, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

SwisterTwister It does. I'm just unsure how to create the page since it seems to be somewhat protected. WikiConqueror (talk) 05:48, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

WikiConqueror One path is WP:Articles for creation, where third-party users including myself (I'm a reviewer) can review it before accepting it or not. SwisterTwister talk 05:52, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Draft:BlackBerry Soul Radio

Hello SwisterTwister. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:BlackBerry Soul Radio, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: no AfC template, so not within G13. Thank you.

This does not come within the definition of G13, which says "any userspace drafts and drafts in the Draft: namespace that are using the project's {{AFC submission}} template" (my emphasis). I don't know why that qualification was added, but unless there is consensus to remove it, abandoned drafts like this one must either go to MfD or simply be left alone. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 10:03, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

JohnCD - I think the difference is that these drafts are under an older AFC process. I can't think of a good reason why G13 shouldn't be expanded to include these drafts as well. Can you? I'm considering raising this at WT:CSD.--Mojo Hand (talk) 16:20, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

JohnCD. I use G13 on these--I read it more inclusively, exactly the same way as SwisterTwister does. I think that was the intent of the rule. I'm very reluctant to use anything like IAR at Speedy, but this is simply a technical problem in the wording. I support ST's use of G13, and I delete any such nominated article I see.

But to eliminate ambiguity, see my proposed change at Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion#G13 Drafts - [3] DGG ( talk ) 17:41, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

I don't see the reason for the words "that are using the project's {{AFC submission}} template" in G13, but they are there, I assume for a purpose; part of the compromises when G13 was first agreed? I have commented at WT:CSD that I'm happy to see them removed. JohnCD (talk) 19:29, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

G1 speedy deletion again

Hi. You have tagged a number of user space pages with WP:G1 again, despite my having previously explained your errors in doing so. Firstly, if a page is written in readable English then it is not applicable for G1. Secondly, G1 does not apply to user space pages anyway. Please read the speedy deletion criteria properly and please stop tagging readable English user pages with G1. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 11:17, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Draft deletions

As I recently told you, every single one of your G13 nominations is being posted in incorrect format. Please learn how to do it. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 11:36, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

To actually explain the issue, Template:Db-g13 states that you need to add the |ts= parameter to indicate when the page was last constructively edited. Sam Walton (talk) 17:31, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Apologies: I should also have said that. --Anthony Bradbury^"talk" 21:02, 25 January 2016 (UTC)

G6

I do not think I would use G6 on userspace drafts as an additional reason, U5 is sufficient (but I do add G11 sometimes to the worst of them to prevent it being restored on request) DGG ( talk ) 17:16, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Hey Dave! If you haven't noticed, I'll add it as a "non-controversial housekeeping" and also for the new G6 which would be applicable, "Deleting userspace drafts containing only the default Article Wizard text if the user who created the page has been inactive for at least one year". Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 19:47, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Berenstain Bears (Atari 2600 game)

SwisterTwister Thank you for taking the time to review the article Draft:Berenstain Bears (Atari 2600 game). I am disappointed, however, that you found this article to not meet the notability threshold. As a highly collectible video game, and one that has been covered in many books and magazine articles (as shown in the references), I am wondering what more you find necessary to approve this article. Many revisions have taken place to expand the article and remove any information or references from non-reputable sources or wiki pages, with all seven current references being published books or magazine/journal articles. As a start-class entry, I believe the article to be well-sourced, accurate, and definitely notable both in the world of video game collecting as well as children's literature.

I have added links, and tried to source out as many links as I can without adding spam. It seems that this person is notable, and should have a wikipedia page, but maybe my process of creating it wasn't done right the first time. This person is on CBS Radio in the greater NYC area, he is often on television, see links and sources and additions I have made. Now I had to link this person's youtube page which you can see HERE, but that is because I couldn't find the direct link or any link that would have it on TV. If such a link/source does exist, maybe you can help me find it.

What's funny is as I was working on this, kind of taking a break, I see him pop up on TMZ sports on my TV. So I linked the TMZ article that mentions his show, and I am waiting for the TV clip to be up so I can source that. I just thought that was ironic, lol.

Ok so he is regular guess on the Arise Network...but again, mostly seen on his own youtube as they are a TV station and run live....here is one article I found but the video links are dead

ARISE TV LINK

And here is again the clips but they are on his youtube, which I don't feel like it should be a problem since they are real clips, but should I try to get them another way?

Scoop B on Arise Youtube Link

Then he is a guest on the BEN Network Show talking about Isiah Thomas joining the Liberty as their coach. LINK

but again, his own youtube is the source....so is that a problem?

Then I found a link to the audio for when he was on ESPN Radio discussing the Hoop Hall of Fame and Alonzo Mourning ....Here is the AUDIO LINK and then here is a SHORT WRITE UP The first link went down, then back up, it was at www.CatfishHughes.com which is just a page about that person I assume.

Ok then I added his education which includes his attendance to the youth camp ran by famous Ian Eagle and Bruce Beck. He didn't just attend, but they also had a write up about him being a famous alumni which I linked and you can see I added the link to the page LINK HERE

Then he was already on the Hofstra Page but it was red meaning no wiki page, as a graduate, it is also on the last link it lists his masters degree.

Now is there anything else that I should add or that is needed for this to move forward? I understand that not every sports journalist should have a wikipedia page, but this person is constantly on TV weekly and on air with a radio show that gets stories from it picked up onto other shows for example see the Samakia Walker story....

Please advise and hopefully we can get this moving forward....then once I get all the links for the Evansville Hoosier wiki page I am working on that will be another story LOL!

thanks

edit: added a link to the Evansville Hoosier page I am working on because that is starting to get hard lol!

John Saul

Thanks for plowing through my draft. I just need a little more guidance. I supplied five authoritative and reputable references detailing him and eleven in the bibliography: ten of which mention him. (There is also a book on him coming out in March, but one never rely on publisher's promises!) As a rough guideline, how many more citations referring to him would be needed to assure notability? A Google Scholar search under his name brings up plenty, so that's no problem. However, I thought the number I'd supplied was adequate for a starter stub, so now I'm puzzled.

Somehow, I get the feeling that this article should be notable just from the reasons you keep denying that the Blazers are not notable. Just how many multimillion dollar judgements have to be awarded by the courts for discrimination before you get it? (They did get the first, that alone should get by the issue of notability.)

At this point it's fairly redundant, The VB have been at the heart of Baltimores diversity efforts from their founding in 1970 to the present day. All of the news stories about the group were negative calls the news media trumpeted as the only thing they seemed capable of, namely calling out the racist policies of the BFCD. So positive stories of the Vulcan Blazers did not make the news. But cites are found aplenty of individual VB's whom are feted for their contributions, or their loss. Other than the 3 editors whom have declined the article as notable, is there any one whom sees this article as notable, possessing context, is timelined and can be streamlined by further editing?

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read this request for a review.

I'm a little confused as to why the article was rejected. The reason cited was in regards to the sources and them not being reliable, however there are more than 10 sources listed that are from external and independent sources. None of them are paid for, all of the written articles are written by factual and well respected media sources.

Could you give me some ideas about what would need to change in order for this submission to be accepted?

Thanks!

I am requesting a re-review because I made this article-wikipedia on behalf of my client, Londen Buckner (DJ L) . I feel like the reasoning for declining his submission is inaccurate. If you look below for the article I have listed several sources from one of the most popular blogs in Chicago, FakeShoreDrive, which does have an actual editor. Not to mention it is noted on youtube and known throughout Chicago and the music industry culture that DJ L produced for artists lil herb, lil bibby, tink, plies. All people who have wikipedia pages. He is even in the studio and working right now with the producer, C-sick, who also has a wikipedia page. If he is collaborating with these individuals and made the sound for these individuals to achieve this level of fame/notoriety. I don't see why he can't have his own wikipedia page that he is rightly due for his work and contribution to hip-hop culture. All the credits I listed on his page can be found on the credits on the record. He was just credited on Lil Durk's last album as a producer with C sick. Lil Durk also has a wikipedia page. With all due respect I just feel like the person reviewing this article didn't have an indepth knowledge of hip-hop culture/chicago hip hop culture. DJ L was even listed as one of the top 25 producers in hip hop in 2015- http://watchloud.com/best-rap-producers-in-2015/ so I don't understand what the issue is. I look forward to hearing back from you. Thank you.

Hello: The Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival has been identified in news articles in several publications, including the New York Times, as a festival akin to some of the biggest and most well known bluegrass festivals, including Telluride Bluegrass Festival, which has a Wikipedia Page. In other words, both Telluride and Grey Fox have proven to be noteworthy or notable. I have amended the draft to add two more newspaper citations for a total of 6 footnoted citations. Please reconsider your rejection. Further, I have had trouble upload photos to the site which were provided to me by the Grey Fox Blue Grass Festival staff from photographers that gave the organization full use permission.

Hello, I would appreciate more specifics regarding your question of the subject's notability and my use of references. I have cited several articles from The Washington Post, including an editorial on the occasion of Scheiber's retirement. To my knowledge, for the Washington Post to run an editorial about the end of someone's career is very rare, and speaks to the subject's notability. The interview of Walter Scheiber by Don Nicoll was taped for the Edmund Muskie Archives at Bates College, and resides in those Archives. If your concern is with my citations of material from the MWCOG and NARC websites, I would be happy to remove them and I believe there would still be sufficient material to establish notability. I have added a few sources in the City Management section, and have another source from the Washingtonian Magazine. Before I resubmit this, I would very much appreciate more detailed feedback to guide my revision.

U5 does not apply to stale drafts

Hi SwisterTwister,

criterion U5 does not apply to stale drafts. Most of what you have been labelling as such are attempted drafts, not a dubions web hosting. The only one I delete with U5 was a political candidate statement. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 09:54, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

Graeme Bartlett Yes, unfortunately, I noticed that but the fact is several other users (at least close to 20) have in fact deleted these type of articles as U5 because, for example, User:Er.abinkurian/Abin kurian is an obvious autobiography and has no actual meaningful draft materials. Furthermore, the fact that these accounts are SPA with no further activity and improvements may it applicable for U5 (see WP:U5). I hope you will reconsider as you can basically ask any other user such as, RHaworth, DGG, Boing! said Zebedee, Jimfbleak, Liz, Northamerica1000 and several others. SwisterTwister talk 18:36, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

If it is a stale draft of something already in WP, I usually delete it as G6, specifying unneeded duplicate. If they were coded U5, I delete them nonetheless. but I change the reason. DGG ( talk ) 18:48, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

• Keep up the good work. Here's a suggestion: instead of U5 slap the following at the top of offending pages: {{subst:AFC submission/draftnew}} {{db-g13}} .

But one request - check CAT:CSD from time to time and when its main section exceeds about 200 artices, suspend your operations to give us poor admins time to catch up. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:15, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

Most of the stale drafts I've deleted are clear G13s and have been marked as such. I'm not aware of deleting a stale draft with a U5 criteria but it might have happened. Sometimes, when the page is a biography of an editor, it's clear U5 material but the author might have intended the page to be a draft for a future article. Liz ^{Read!

Re. Mads Munk: Can you help me?

Hi SwisterTwister! Thanks you for reviewing the article on Mads Munk. I can see that you declined the submission of the article based on your opinion that the article does not adequately show the subject's notability. Can you help me with a little more guidance here, since I am not quite sure why the article doesn't meet the required criteria? The article has recently been updated with references to coverage on IMDb.com, Financial Times, Wallpaper Magazine, and Scandinavian Traveller as well as a all major Danish Business papers - Business, Borsen, Morgenavisen Jyllands-Posten, Aarhus Stiftstidende (which I understand can be hard to verify for a non-Danish speaking person, but I see that Wikipedia aknowledges non-English sources as reliable too). I have seen a number of articles on film producers with much less documentation than this, e.g. Georges Dancigers, Lars Jönsson, M. Saravanan, Erik Crone and many more.

Notability

Hi SwisterTwister

How is one firm less notable than another, especially when Wikipedia has a whole Category for these kinds of companies (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Private_equity_firms_of_the_United_Kingdom), all of which have less sources than the post I am writing, and none which are noted as needing more sources.

I strongly believe that the sources I have provided prove notability. As LaMona suggested, they were unable to access jstor website, because of their password and the like. This is not a sufficient reason to decline. You can see notability through the Arab Writers Union website and also through jstor, which is the official publication of the French Institute of Arabic Studies. Add to this the dedication of different authors in the 20th century, all are named and referred to, and also the reputed Le Monde journal. Take this for example: http://www.jstor.org/stable/41608456?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents Which is by itself a proof of notability. Hope to take it into consideration.

Hi SwisterTwister,

Noting Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Abeiku Okai/Senya Beraku Akumase Festival, where it was noted that you failed to notify the page creator of the nomination to delete, have you considered enabling and using Wikipedia:Twinkle? It makes the fairly complex steps of XfD nominations very easy. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 22:57, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

SmokeyJoe I suppose but frankly the account only edited a few times making me think they were an SPA. At best, they may remember their article immediately and thus see the MfD listing.

Merla

Hello SwisterTwister; I was wondering about your review of this page... I stumbled on it earlier today and noticed it had been created out of a re-direct relating to the surname Merla by a very new editor (account only minutes old) who initially blanked the page. Another editor then restored the re-direct, but the new editor then re-created the page for a company named Merla. It seems to me that there may be a COI (just a suspicion) and the page appears promotional and is unreferenced as far as I can tell. I wonder if the page should be allowed to stand as it is. I did at one point consider just restoring the re-direct. On another note thanks for always reviewing my submissions so quickly! :) Regards, Eagleash (talk) 21:35, 4 February 2016 (UTC)

Kirby Allan (Pittman)

I've been struggling with an article about Kirby Allen. He worked with Chaino in the late 1950's and their work has been re-released many times since then.

The primary issue with the article seems to be in regard to the specific citations, or their placement within the article. I'm fairly sure that Allen meets the following criteria of notability:

Perhaps, if there's not enough for a solidly independently notable article. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 23:34, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

Problem with review?

Greetings, I see that you reviewed my draft submission on Crelow and objected to its lack of notability and insufficiently "solid" third-party references. To address the notability issue, I have rewritten the lead section, which now says that Crelow is the first online marketplace for commercial real estate. It is the first, but perhaps out of excessive modesty, I did not assert that in the original draft. As far as references go, I should have thought the leading newspapers in Minneapolis, Denver, and Houston would be sufficient, along with the primary business journals for those cities and Seattle. But there will shortly be articles about Crelow in the San Jose Mercury News and the Los Angeles Times as well. Would that be sufficient? If so, I will resubmit the article when those additional news stories appear. Thanks, Burgo Fitzgerald Burgo Fitzgerald (talk) 20:59, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

help understand National Trust paintings

There is a set of Paintings by Jane Hawkins - one of Mary Catherine Stanley, Lady Derby and I would be delighted if it was possible to upload them to commons and use them in the articles - but I don't understand the rules about if they are possible to use or not. I noticed you mention you have added images and thought you might be the person to ask about it? The paintings are referenced on the page about Jane Hawkins if that helps? 🍺 Antiqueight ^chat 22:08, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Antiqueight I would suggest visiting WP:UPLOAD which will explain. I have loaded images myself but looking at that page may explain better. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 22:10, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

{{SAFESUBST:Void|

Hey,

I am trying to create a few pages on Litigation funders. I am currently writing my PHD around the industry, which is really quite pivotal, but very few companies are listed on Wikipedia.

The only company which I have seen on Wikipedia so far is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harbour_Litigation_Funding and I cant tell what makes that page more worthy of note than the one I wrote. I wondered if you could please offer me some guidance?

Thanks

Ben

Benm182, WP is an encyclopedia, summarizing information published elsewhere. Therefore, we need references providing substantial coverage from third-party independent reliable sources, not press releases or mere announcements. They have to be about the firm itself. Unlike a Ph.D thesis, Wikipedia does not do analysis or write articles based on primary sources such as H of Commons hearings. Nor does an analysis of case where the firm presented an analysis of the evidence show a major role of the firm, unless there are specific third party statements that specially saw how their information was critical or decisive. Please see our explanation about original research, WP:OR, and our page about WP:Reliable sources. It is in fact possible that this will be difficult to do for this firm,; it often is for small specialized companies of vartious sorts.

This is very different from academic writing, which is expected to be original research. The nearest analog in the academic world to a WP article might be a section in an advanced textbook, which is expected to just present the accepted view, based on documentation from published studies.

By the way, once your thesis has been accepted and is publicly available, then it can be used as a source. DGG ( talk ) 19:56, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Reviewing articles

Hi SwisterTwister. May I ask what you do when reviewing articles (normal articles, not AfCs)? Your page curation log sometimes lists up to 5 reviewed articles per minute, but I can hardly believe that you can check entire articles in 12 seconds, let alone tag them for problems. The BLP about Julito Buhisan Cortes for example was merely an infobox and should have been PRODded for a lack of references (I have done so by the way), but despite the issues, you plainly marked it as reviewed. - HyperGaruda (talk) 11:42, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

But it's trivial to add it,I just did in less than one-minute. T We've never deleted an article on a RC bishop. hey all have findable sources. DGG ( talk ) 19:39, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

@DGG: That particular BLP was not my point. I am merely wondering how one can properly check a new article for problems in the nigh impossibly short span of <12 seconds. Yes I am aware of page curation tools, but it should take some time for a human mind to finish e.g. a checklist of potential issues. That is all, of course, dependent on SwisterTwister's definition of "reviewing", but I was under the impression that reviewing meant checking an article for errors and addressing them by either fixing or tagging. - HyperGaruda (talk) 21:24, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Honestly, I waited because I believed the author would continue working because the article was imaginably not finished. It's worth noting I actually watchlist any articles I find to need close examination and work. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 21:27, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

My own top rate is about 2 per minute , but sometimes a little faster when there are obvious problems, or an obvious lack of problems. And of course often slower, sometimes much slower like 2 a day, when it takes some thinking. DGG ( talk ) 02:19, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

  • Draft:TransRe (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi SwisterTwister, you can see I've been working on this article for a while - its an info article on TransRe (inline with many reinsurance companies like Swiss Re, Munich Re, etc). We had a recent exchange with your articles creation team and therefore I toned down the language and removed some references. I can imagine you guys are really busy, proving a invaluable reference for the world, but I was wondering if there were any further pointers or guidenance you could provide, or even if you could assist I'd be really grateful.

many thanks,

Neil.

Ninskip (talk) 13:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Ninskip, you might start by integrating the 3rd party external links into the references, and writing in paragraphs, not tables. Then you might want to remove those references which are essentially press releases. unless they are needed to document specific uncontroversial facts. And some financial information would help show the importance. DGG ( talk ) 19:44, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

White_pixelization

Hi there, I've just been linked to the AFD for this article, I didn't realise there had been a second one after the first AFD was decided to keep. Anyway, I've provided a credible source and request to keep the article perhaps with a better outside of Sweden rewrite of the article (Which I'm willing to do) as this is done also in Germany. In Germany it is done to keep anonymity of suspects prior to conviction as per German Law. There isn't really a race aspect to it, more just to make every pixelated person look the same regardless. The fact is even prior to the refugee crisis, images were pixelated in this was for exactly the same reason, not to protect refugee crimes as the original article claimed. Thanks in advance.

<-- 1. This company has a significant presence in the EU, Middle East and Asian markets through wholesale coffee sales and through company owned and franchised coffee houses. 2. The company's heads have made important contributions to the study of coffee roasting, including publishing articles in scientific journals. 3. The company's coffee has been recommended to consumers through off-line consumer magazines. Because other recommendations of the coffee are through blogs (which do not qualify as acceptable sources), they have not been included in the article. 4. Its partnerships with foreign businesses have been reported on in both English and non-English industry journals/newspapers (online or off-line). 5. With Google translate, it is possible--if you possess a copy of the offline magazines--to understand the nature of each article. The articles cited are not mere mention. I could upload the PDFs to Wikipedia, however, I can't do so until the article leaves draft. The PDFs are of published articles, so I can only upload them using fair-use copyright rules.

While I have included references which are 'mere mentions' and don't weigh in, I understand that consumer magazines do qualify under the rules. While "The National Enquirer" would not, I believe a European equivalent to "Good Housekeeping" should.

I included the 'mere mentions' primarily to back up the coverage of their expansion.

I recognize this article requires ongoing improvements, however, I believe this draft qualifies for entry at the lowest level permissible.-->

schools

Is it really your intent to challenge the compromise on schools? I'd think that we have quite sufficient articles that really need deletion to waste time on debating what would quite literally be tens of thousands of these. Before the compromise, we sometimes had 10 or 15 of these every day,about a 20% increase in the number of afds to consider. The results weren't even deleting the worst of them--the results were essentially random in terms of importance or quality, depending on who showed up and how strongly the article was attacked & defended. DGG ( talk ) 19:32, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Ah, I thought boarding schools were not applicable for notability from the schools notability. SwisterTwister talk 20:13, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

  • Draft:Xavient Information Systems (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hello:

I submitted the page "Xavient Information Systems" a few weeks ago and it was denied on the grounds of a lack of notability. However, I understand notability is dependent upon having significant coverage in several reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Based on these criteria, Xavient's page should be reconsidered regarding notability, as

• a) we provided 10 references, showing sufficient "significant" coverage and
• b) the coverage is from reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject.

Xavient's coverage in CableFax, Investor's Business Daily and Broadband Technology Report especially should provide substantive evidence of notability, especially compared to the following companies' pages:

• Aditi Technologies
• Cybage
• Harbinger Systems
• Absolutdata

CableFax and Broadband Technology Report have been used as sources on multiple other company pages (CableFax: INSP (TV network), Full Channel, Blackboard Wars; Broadband Technology Report: Integrated Broadband Services, Pixelmetrix, Comcast Business) which supports the claim that Xavient's presence in these outlets constitutes a higher degree of notability than has been recognized.

Please reconsider Xavient's notability.

CommsPro123 (talk) 21:15, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

CommsPro123 Hello and thanks! However, the current article is still not satisfying notability guidelines. It will also need any further available solid in-depth third-party sources overall. SwisterTwister talk 21:21, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
