Outline of investigations and court cases involving Donald Trump moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Outline of investigations and court cases involving Donald Trump, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Wikiproject Autonomous Zones

Hi - I noticed that you closed Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Proposals/Autonomous Zones as meeting the minimum threshold for creation. Can I just probe that closure a bit? Wikiproject's aren't really my bag, so I'm sure that you're more familiar with the creation thresholds, but at the time when you closed the discussion, there were three 'support' !votes - one from a blocked sockpuppeteer, one from a blocked sock of the same user, and a third from a different account (five years old, but with only about 30 edits at the time). There were two 'oppose' !votes. The Wikiproject has been created, but it has had no activity since the sockpuppeteer and their socks were blocked. Did you consider these factors at the time? Cheers Girth Summit _(blether) 07:02, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

I specified that the WikiProject was created when I closed it, but I didn't create it myself. If you'd like to propose deleting the WikiProject, see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council. I would not have closed the proposal as created if the project wasn't created already, and I don't think it should have been created. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 07:32, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

I guess I'm asking about your comment that it had gained traction for the bare minimum to be created - what is that bare minimum, is it just one person? I'm not trying to give you a hard time, just looking to find out about what the expectations are so I can consider the case for its continued existence. Thanks Girth Summit _(blether) 10:19, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

DYK for 2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election

On 21 January 2023, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the January 2023 election of the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives was the longest speaker election since December 1859 – February 1860? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, 2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello

So, for the 2023 Memphis protests what im trying to say is that the protests outside of Memphis are not yet notable enough for another page, so that's why im redirecting your page, maybe when the protests outside of Memphis are notable enough you can probably move the page, for example see the 2015 Baltimore protests like the George Floyd Protests when the protests outside of Minneapolis got out of control they moved the page, so thats why im redirecting. PopularGames (talk) 02:51, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for being forthcoming about what you hope to achieve. I believe we have a communication issue here with two separate pages, and it is likely that this situation will change faster than an AfD discussion can be closed.

I'm not opposed to two separate pages but, I agree, there is a difficult situation here. I created my page five minutes before yours and, going off of the titles, it seems as though "2023 Memphis protests" covers exclusively protests in Memphis. I believe we should take this to another talk page to get more attention from other editors. Perhaps here? elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 02:55, 28 January 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Killing of Tyre Nichols

Your closure here appears to be a wp:supervote, and generally RMs, unless nearly unopposed, last for seven days. Valereee (talk) 20:06, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

I'm going to agree that you probably should have let it run the whole seven days. Iamreallygoodatcheckers^t@lk 02:15, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

Communication is required, @ElijahPepe. When people bring concerns to your talk page, you need to address them. Valereee (talk) 14:12, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

I closed the discussion believing a conclusion was made. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:25, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

Again, your closure appears to be a supervote, and generally Requested Moves, unless nearly unopposed, last for seven days. Valereee (talk) 14:56, 31 January 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe, you've stopped responding again. Do you understand that the conclusion was not by any means made, as theres was significant opposition, and that the discussion should not have been closed after only a couple of days? Valereee (talk) 14:05, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

Yes. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:18, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

Now that you know that, would you rethink the close? Valereee (talk) 14:18, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

The close is done. If I could move it back, I would. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:21, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

Nothing's ever done. If you aren't sure how to unclose, you can go to that talk page, open a new section, and explain that you hadn't realized the discussion needed to be open for a week, and that if anyone participating there believes it should be reopened to receive a full discussion, it's fine with you. I wouldn't worry too much about getting the article moved back, that can be done if needed once there's consensus. Valereee (talk) 14:32, 2 February 2023 (UTC)

Issue with article

Hello, On the article you created, 2023 Tennessee House of Representatives expulsions, I noticed a few things wrong.

• The 2/3 majority is actually set by the US Constitution, not by the states.
• The “scorecard” for Johnson is reversed if I am reading it correctly, as it seems, by what you put on it, is that the vote to remove was successful. Could you double check that?

2023 riots in France

I suspect, as one of the principal authors of the Yellow Vests protests entry, that I could probably be useful on this entry. However, I've noticed that you have become quite attached to the entry, to the point where you've already broken the 3-revert rule in the last hour:

• 21:53
• 22:04
• 22:06
• 22:46

I would be happy to collaborate, but do not wish to join a battleground. (There's plenty of that downstairs...) -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 23:01, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

The three-revert rule does not apply to vandalism, which the fourth link was. The third link was antithetical to what was being discussed in the talk page. This is not 3RR, and simultaneously boasting your accomplishments is not professional. I explained why the one-sentence paragraphs were not useful. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 23:14, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

1) at 22:46 you reverted a sourced, good-faith edit. 2) It is useful to separate subjects, in order to expand upon them. It is a first step, not a final step. 3) Please remain cordial, the reference to YVM was to suggest that perhaps you might listen before you "explain". -- SashiRolls ^{🌿 · 🍥} 23:22, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Draft conflict

It appears that there has been a reduplication of efforts. Draft:2023 SAG-AFTRA strike has already existed for some hours now, with several contributors. Why did you create an article that already had a draft? 〜 Festucalex • talk 19:16, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

There is nothing against creating an article with a draft. The draft was less in-depth and used less reliable sources. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 19:23, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Oh well. I'm a bit annoyed that all my effort is down the drain now. Wikipedia is a collaborative effort, and that's why I think you should have improved the draft if you found it to be insufficient. 〜 Festucalex • talk 19:25, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

I used some of the sources from that draft. It was not futile. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 19:28, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

Oh, so you actually saw the draft and decided to start a new one? That's worse. According to WP:DRAFTS: As the draft namespace is a common location for incubating articles (unlike user space), users are notified through Template:New page DYM when visiting a non-existent article whose title does exist in draft space, to prevent unnecessary creation of duplicates on current events. 〜 Festucalex • talk 19:30, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe: I'm dropping the matter, but I want you to know that I'm very frustrated. Hours of my time have been completely wasted because of this. 〜 Festucalex • talk 21:11, 13 July 2023 (UTC)

EP, I have to agree with festucalex that this was at minimum a breach of etiquette and kind of rude. Creating a page when there's already a draft currently being worked on is duplicative work, and using their sources takes credit for their work and denies them any recognition for that work. If this is something you think is perfectly fine, I disagree. The better option is to go help on the draft. Valereee (talk) 10:06, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing and source misrepresentation

Hi, ElijahPepe, I've removed a few sentences you'd written at 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike because they were too close to the wording of the original source. While paraphrasing sources is allowed, please be careful to not do so too closely, as the resulting text can still be a copyright violation. Furthermore, what you had written misrepresented the source in an important way: Vox is saying that shows such as those are an example of the broader problem with streaming shows, whereas you implied it was an issue writers had singled out. Both close paraphrasing and source misrepresentation are easy mistakes to fall into from time to time, but also very important things to get right, so please beware of these going forward. Thanks. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 17:45, 14 July 2023 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Arrest of Evan Gershkovich.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Arrest of Evan Gershkovich.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file from a commercial source (e.g. Associated Press, Getty Images), where the file itself is not the subject of sourced commentary. If you can explain why the file can be used under the non-free content guidelines, please add the appropriate non-free use tag and rationale.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Whpq (talk) 21:19, 16 July 2023 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to post-1992 politics of the United States and closely related people, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially-designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

You have recently made edits related to articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. This is a standard message to inform you that articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles is a designated contentious topic. This message does not imply that there are any issues with your editing. For more information about the contentious topics system, please see Wikipedia:Contentious topics.

Weiss special counsel page

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing.

Please do not continue to reinsert contested BLP and American Politics content into this article page. Use the article talk page to seek consensus for your proposed text. SPECIFICO talk 14:40, 13 August 2023 (UTC)

Your AfD for Linus Sebastian

... was obviously unnecessary and was also a colossal waste of time for several people. I hope you use better judgement in the future before starting such efforts. You clearly know there was only one outcome for that action - and makes it look like you have an axe to grind or an agenda. Picard's Facepalm (talk) 14:39, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

An article with two reliable sources, especially a person, doesn't need to exist. I have no relation to the Gamers Nexus feud. Before writing comments like this on people's talk pages, I suggest laying off the hostility, or you may end up yearning for the ability to edit at all. No excuse for the passive aggressive comment you left, this is blatantly a personal attack. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:45, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

WP:SOFIXIT would apply, long before calling for the whacking the article entirely. As demonstrated in the AfD discussion - there is endless RS material to support the subject's notoriety. It would have taken less effort to google that than it took you to make the AfD. Yes - without question the article needs improving. But as evident by numerous commenters in the AfD - it borders on the obscene to request deletion. You left many heads being scratched with that one. I never mentioned anything about GN... I was thinking a much broader scope for your unfounded action. Interesting that you did mention it though... *pondering*. Anyhow - as for hostility and personal attacks - believe me you will know if I am making them. I simply made comments about your recent activity regarding that article when both the outcome and the fix were so obvious and readily available, but I digress. However - I will advise that I do not take kindly to people directing their violations of WP:THREATEN towards me - veiled or otherwise. Let's not have another unnecessary escalation this week, okay? Picard's Facepalm (talk) 15:05, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe Linus Sebastian has had articles made about him in The Verge, Kotaku, The New York Times, Dexeto, and many others. He is clearly notable as a person, you not finding it notable is your issue, not that of Wikipedia’s, and does NOT in any way warrant the AfD. Don’t create useless AfDs. And for the record, what Picard says does not constitute a personal attack. They are just pointing out that you should not unnecessarily create AfDs. - Evelyn Harthbrooke (leave a message · contributions) 18:26, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

The argument does not surround whether or not Sebastian has received media coverage, the argument is about whether or not he has extended media coverage. A passing mention in The Verge or The New York Times doesn't make a person notable. There is little that you can state about Sebastian that can't be merged into the Linus Media Group article. "Useless" AfDs are not AfDs that you disagree with. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 22:26, 17 August 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe There are full blown articles in The Verge and New York Times dedicated sorely to Sebastian. I've followed LTT and Sebastian for literally years. He's received a lot of news coverage over the years. You clearly have not done much research on this. - Evelyn Harthbrooke (leave a message · contributions) 00:23, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

An article in The Verge and The New York Times alone is not going to suffice for establishing notability; accusing me of not doing my research is yet another personal attack. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 00:46, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe They were merely examples. I can mention other sources as well, like Forbes, NME, PC Gamer, and others. Merging the Linus Sebastian article with Linus Media Group will just add unnecessary content to the article, as he is no longer the CEO and, as such, no longer the most prominent face of LMG. There's a reason the two articles are separate, and as such, I still believe your AfD was unnecessary, not to mention made directly in the middle of controverises surrounding LMG, which is in poor taste and makes Wikipedia look bad. - Evelyn Harthbrooke (leave a message · contributions) 01:39, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Watch out using Forbes for notability; PC Gamer has no reliability established for it and should not be used either. I have nothing to gain or lose, and neither does Wikipedia. Optics are irrelevant when an article needs to be desperately merged. Whether or not LMG is embroiled and marred in controversy is not my concern and does not change how the AfD is presented. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 01:45, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

@ElijahPepe For the record, your second claim regarding PC Gamer is false, per WP:VG/S, as PC Gamer is heavily PC and video game centric and is typically where PC Gamer as a source is used, but can be used for other articles as PC Gamer also covers technology in some cases. Please check more than just WP:RSP before coming to conclusions. Anyways, your AfD was already closed under WP:SNOW and the fact that you filed it right in the middle of an LMG / Linus Sebastian controversy. - Evelyn Harthbrooke (leave a message · contributions) 01:54, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Also, the article can be improved to contain more details and information, and to cite more sources. An AfD is genuinely just unnecessary due to that. - Evelyn Harthbrooke (leave a message · contributions) 01:57, 19 August 2023 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted

Hi ElijahPepe, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Schwede66 23:31, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

I rounded them but more importantly removed them from the title. Abductive (reasoning) 20:26, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Please work on the draft-space article Draft:Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip

Hey ElijahPepe. I wanted to let you know that Draft:Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip was created yesterday to not violate WP:FUTURE, given the Israeli ground invasion hasn't begun, or at least, not enough RS say it has begun. I saw you previously worked on the now redirect stub 2023 Israeli invasion of Gaza, so I wanted to suggest you could work on the draft-space article. Also, I wanted to note the stub-article title was wrong in general (Gaza Strip, not Gaza), plus it violated WP:FUTURE. So yeah, the draft-space article can be worked on and improved prior to the invasion, so when the invasion does occur, it is start/C class rather than a stub article. Cheers!

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Please slow it down

Hi there. This morning, when I was reading about the OpenAI drama that's going on, I suddenly wondered if someone would have been tempted to create an article about it. I then had a second thought: if they did, chances were that you would be the article creator. I logged onto Wikipedia, searched "firing of Sam Altman" (so close!), and indeed — there was an article created by you, and as I had guessed, it had been nominated for AfD. While your dedication to article creation is greatly appreciated, please consider slowing it down when it comes to creating articles about current events, which I know you are prolific in. Consider WP:NEVENT, WP:10YEAR, and especially WP:NOTNEWS. Thank you. InfiniteNexus (talk) 17:56, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

I concur with @InfiniteNexus. By coincidence, I came to this talk page to post the exact same concern. Removal of Sam Altman, and other articles such as Efforts to remove Kevin McCarthy are 1) clearly out of step with our best practices for naming and titles, which you should be aware of by now and 2) questionable in terms of notability, and would best be brought up on the relevant talk pages first as a proposal, rather than an abrupt fork. In the spirit of collaboration, please consider these points first before just starting a new article. It will save lots of grief and wasted time in requested move or Articles for Deletion debates. - Fuzheado | Talk 13:19, 22 November 2023 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Outline of investigations and court cases involving Donald Trump

Hello, ElijahPepe. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Outline of investigations and court cases involving Donald Trump".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:03, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

PROD for Tornado outbreak of December 9, 2023

I was sad to see you reverted my redirect. I redirected it to the yearly article because a draft-article was already in the making (Draft:Tornado outbreak of December 9, 2023). I even explained that in the redirect message. I have now placed a PROD on the article and would like to ask if I may re-redirect the article and let the much better-shape draft replace it in the future. Basically, I also think an outbreak article is warrented, but the current draft-article was created first and is in a whole lot better shape than the stub you reverted back. Please, let me re-redirect it (cancelling the PROD) and let the better-shape draft get ready for mainspace. The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 03:03, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

If the flow of information is greater in a separate article, there's nothing particularly disheartening about unredirecting it, and I mean zero ill-intentions. I read that you are honoring WP:0RR. At your discretion, you may redirect it again, as are alternative avenues; note that this is a developing situation that is garnering notability. You may also copy your content into the existing article. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 03:39, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

I went ahead and re-did the redirect. If I was the only editor, I would have just copied it in. However, seven other editors have edited the draft article, so I couldn't just copy/paste it over to mainspace without the article history being merged, which is a little bit of a hassle to do. Either way, I really thank you for letting me redirect it. It wasn't because I don't think it should be an article, just rather that several other editors had been working on this particular draft, so the 1-sentence mainspace article you made just complicated things a little bit. Once again, thank you! Feel free to help out on the draft: Draft:Tornado outbreak of December 9, 2023! Cheers! The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 03:48, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

If other editors are working on that draft in a significant manner, a history merge is likely necessary. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 03:50, 10 December 2023 (UTC)

Invitation

Hello ElijahPepe/Archives, we need experienced volunteers.

• New Page Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles. We could use a few extra hands on deck if you think you can help.
• Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.
• Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, it basically boils down to checking CSD, notability, and title). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us.
• If you would like to join the project and help out, please see the granting conditions. You can apply for the user-right HERE.
• If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message at the reviewer's discussion board.
• Cheers, and hope to see you around.
