Deleterion of David Demola

Dear Vinay Gowda,

The subject is notable and featured on Christian networks. He has been accredited by Creflo Dollar and preaches to the 38th largest megachurch in the country as of 2017. Please do not mess with articles on prominent Christian leaders. May I have the original work for self-review and I will redo this article with sources for credibility? This will be redone neutrally and in an encyclopedic way.

Hey

The page Anil K Reji has been nominated for deletion. Kindly let me know what can be done to prevent the deletion.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anil_K_Reji

Valid sources and news articles have been included as references in the article. But it still has been nominated for deletion. Kindly assist me through the walkthrough process of preventing the deletion.

Thanks.

Repeated Reverting on article on "Samiksha Jaiswal".

Respected Sir/Madam,

Please tell why are you repeatedly reverting the article on Samiksha Jaiswal to #Redirect Zindagi Ki Mehek?

@Helpful14: As Barkeep49 mentioned in the edit summary that the subject not yet demonstrated to be notable per WP:NACTOR so please do not revert as it's WP:TOOSOON for this actress to have a separate article. Thank you. GSS (talk|c|em)

Edits made in Ram Awana Page

All that edits what i've made it's my working on my own bads. All that listed edits in "Revision history" i've made in draft mode.

Paid articles

Hello, could you help me? I can't fully understand if I can create and edit articles for people who ask me and offer some money or it is prohibited in Wikipedia? Thank you! Գարիկ Ավագյան (talk)

Page Review of Victor Mbarika

Greetings! Please the article Victor Mbarika has been reviewed and that is the reason why the COI code was removed and it is no more an orphan page since it is referenced in another wikipedia article (ICT University). I would be glad to have your comment. Thanks!

Gouri Kishan

Why did you move the page to a draft? The version of the page when it was deleted was this (version of the article re-created on 14:48, March 15, 2020). I have heavily expanded the page. All I did was move Gouri Kishan to Gouri G Kishan.

The page Gouri KIshan existed for some time, but after I moved the page, you immediately moved it to a draft.

Just wanted to tell you that the page created during the deletion discussion was only one line and that is why it was deleted. --TamilMirchi

Request for a new set of eyes

@GSS: is it okay if say new reviewers review Draft:Pascal Mouawad? Just wondering if it's possible! Probably a new mind would look at the additions and subtractions in a more positive light. Just a respectful request! Because for starters, the first reason you give for rejection of the article (reliable sources) doesn't really cut it. The subject of the article has been a notable celebrity gemologist for two decades and there're enough references in noteworthy media in which he's the subject of discussion. I think it's safe to please give other reviewers a chance to have a look at the article. I respectfully request that you please let a fresh mind have a fresh look at the article. Thank you!

Declined my article

Hi,

you have recently declined my draft article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Street_Lamp_Games Please let me know the changes I should do and the mistakes I did. This is my first article in Wikipedia

Request for help to improve the declined Draft

Hi GSS, Can you please explain on what needs to be added/modified to make this draft workable for resubmitting - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Sharath_Ravi The comment said, " Appear to have played some minor roles in major productions. Fails WP:NACTOR." He is an upcoming actor with good recognition from the Tamil language fans. It would be great if you can extend your support. Thanks in advance. GC

Ghanada

Wait a second, you're an Indian and you don't know about Premendra Mitra's Ghanada?!?

January 2021/Apbook

Hello User:GSS , Hope you are doing well, I spent very lest time in Wiki that is the reason I gave late reply, I am not an professional editor, still learning new things in wiki, spent my free time to participate wiki editing and leaning new things and improving knowledge in different topics and browsing and adding new profiles, creating pages in English and Telegu. I am editing wiki for my self satisfaction, not at all for someone. i created few new pages i got notifications on some mistakes or issues, nomination, it has a challenge to solve the problem according to me. that's way i am trying to lean and edit pages. thank you for understanding User:Apbook 03:48, 25 January 2021

Before resubmitting my articles for review, I will wait for 2 days for your go-ahead so that I am sure I am on right track, after that i will resubmit it. Regards, Kaleem6061 (talk)

response to claim of paid editing

Hi there! No, I'm not being paid for my editing at all, nor do I have any financial interest in any of my Wikipedia activity. I do confess to profiting from my intellectual pleasure. I've been working on my page about Rosamond for awhile, ever since last year when I was shocked to see that she wasn't on here. I'm a big fan of Wikipedia and have similar concerns about bias and paid editing, so thank you for yours :)

New Pages Patrol newsletter January 2023

Hello GSS,

New Page Review queue December 2022

Backlog

The October drive reduced the backlog from 9,700 to an amazing 0! Congratulations to WaddlesJP13 who led with 2084 points. See this page for further details. The queue is steadily rising again and is approaching 2,000. It would be great if <2,000 were the “new normal”. Please continue to help out even if it's only for a few or even one patrol a day.

2022 Awards

Onel5969 won the 2022 cup for 28,302 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 80/day. There was one Gold Award (5000+ reviews), 11 Silver (2000+), 28 Iron (360+) and 39 more for the 100+ barnstar. Rosguill led again for the 4th year by clearing 49,294 redirects. For the full details see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone!

Minimum deletion time: The previous WP:NPP guideline was to wait 15 minutes before tagging for deletion (including draftification and WP:BLAR). Due to complaints, a consensus decided to raise the time to 1 hour. To illustrate this, very new pages in the feed are now highlighted in red. (As always, this is not applicable to attack pages, copyvios, vandalism, etc.)

New draftify script: In response to feedback from AFC, the The Move to Draft script now provides a choice of set messages that also link the creator to a new, friendly explanation page. The script also warns reviewers if the creator is probably still developing the article. The former script is no longer maintained. Please edit your edit your common.js or vector.js file from User:Evad37/MoveToDraft.js to User:MPGuy2824/MoveToDraft.js

Redirects: Some of our redirect reviewers have reduced their activity and the backlog is up to 9,000+ (two months deep). If you are interested in this distinctly different task and need any help, see this guide, this checklist, and spend some time at WP:RFD.

Discussions with the WMF The PageTriage open letter signed by 444 users is bearing fruit. The Growth Team has assigned some software engineers to work on PageTriage, the software that powers the NewPagesFeed and the Page Curation toolbar. WMF has submitted dozens of patches in the last few weeks to modernize PageTriage's code, which will make it easier to write patches in the future. This work is helpful but is not very visible to the end user. For patches visible to the end user, volunteers such as Novem Linguae and MPGuy2824 have been writing patches for bug reports and feature requests. The Growth Team also had a video conference with the NPP coordinators to discuss revamping the landing pages that new users see.

New Pages Patrol newsletter June 2023

Hello GSS,

New Page Review queue April to June 2023

Backlog

Redirect drive: In response to an unusually high redirect backlog, we held a redirect backlog drive in May. The drive completed with 23851 reviews done in total, bringing the redirect backlog to 0 (momentarily). Congratulations to Hey man im josh who led with a staggering 4316 points, followed by Meena and Greyzxq with 2868 and 2546 points respectively. See this page for more details. The redirect queue is steadily rising again and is steadily approaching 4,000. Please continue to help out, even if it's only for a few or even one review a day.

Redirect autopatrol: All administrators without autopatrol have now been added to the redirect autopatrol list. If you see any users who consistently create significant amounts of good quality redirects, consider requesting redirect autopatrol for them here.

WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team, consisting of Sam, Jason and Susana, and also some patches from Jon, has been hard at work updating PageTriage. They are focusing their efforts on modernising the extension's code rather than on bug fixes or new features, though some user-facing work will be prioritised. This will help make sure that this extension is not deprecated, and is easier to work on in the future. In the next month or so, we will have an opt-in beta test where new page patrollers can help test the rewrite of Special:NewPagesFeed, to help find bugs. We will post more details at WT:NPPR when we are ready for beta testers.

Articles for Creation (AFC): All new page reviewers are now automatically approved for Articles for Creation draft reviewing (you do not need to apply at WT:AFCP like was required previously). To install the AFC helper script, visit Special:Preferences, visit the Gadgets tab, tick "Yet Another AFC Helper Script", then click "Save". To find drafts to review, visit Special:NewPagesFeed, and at the top left, tick "Articles for Creation". To review a draft, visit a submitted draft, click on the "More" menu, then click "Review (AFCH)". You can also comment on and submit drafts that are unsubmitted using the script.

You can review the AFC workflow at WP:AFCR. It is up to you if you also want to mark your AFC accepts as NPP reviewed (this is allowed but optional, depends if you would like a second set of eyes on your accept). Don't forget that draftspace is optional, so moves of drafts to mainspace (even if they are not ready) should not be reverted, except possibly if there is conflict of interest.

Pro tip: Did you know that visual artists such as painters have their own SNG? The most common part of this "creative professionals" criteria that applies to artists is WP:ARTIST 4b (solo exhibition, not group exhibition, at a major museum) or 4d (being represented within the permanent collections of two museums).

Reminders

The Detective Barnstar

		The Detective Barnstar
		During your routine edits on Wikipedia you noticed the odd behaviour of an editor and went on to investigate further with good faith. Upon your preliminary investigation you started a watertight SPI case against those editor(s), which led to their blocking and reduction of vandalism, gaming the system, and paid editing, etc on Wikipedia. Your SPI case is a beacon of diligence and eye for detail on Wikipedia. For the above, I am pleased to confer upon you the The Detective Barnstar under my signature on this date and time.

Jennifer_Uchendu

Hi GSS you recently deleted Jennifer_Uchendu which is a new article about a woman who is notable and well linked and article had been worked on by several editors. There was an article of the same name that was deleted with a valid reason and this may have confused you. I don't understand your deletion ... can you review or supply a rationale please. Speedy deletion seems to lack justification. Victuallers (talk) 16:39, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

@Victuallers: (1) GSS did not delete the article: Deb did. (2) You attempted to restore the deleted article unilaterally, without first consulting the deleting administrator; do you think that is good practice? (3) You actually restored only the latest revision. (4) I'm not sure why you say "this may have confused you". As an administrator with as much experience as you must know, there's a wide range of good faith and rational views as to how similar a new version of a page needs to be to a deleted version to qualify for a G4 deletion, and even if you personally tend towards the "must be absolutely identical" end of the spectrum, the similarity in this case is well within the range of variation of views about this. (5) Even if we set aside the G4 issue completely, the other reason given for deletion was that the article was promotional. Again, it is not at the blatant spam end of the spectrum, but there is certainly a very clear promotional tone to it, and some statements in it are far from neutral; for example, consider "Her work highlights the importance..." That both advocates a view as to what is important and also expresses the view that Jennifer Uchendu "highlights" that matter which is viewed as important. (6) You state as a fact that Jennifer Uchendu is "a woman who is notable". That is contrary to a 100% consensus in a deletion discussion. Of course you are free to disagree with that consensus, but using your personal opinion, contrary to consensus, as a justification for unilaterally reverting an administrative action is questionable. (7) You also say "article had been worked on by several editors". The number of people who have edited an article has absolutely no bearing whatsoever on whether it should be deleted, and I am bewildered as to why you mention that.

Would you be prepared to revert your own undeletion, wait to hear the deleting administrator's view on the matter, and then if you are unsatisfied, consider whether to take the deletion to Wikipedia:Deletion review? JBW (talk) 19:19, 1 May 2024 (UTC)
