Nomination of stuff for deletion

So a bunch of redirects you made are at AfD now for minor league free agents. Looks like it's that time of year again... it's why I don't understand the appeal of writing on minor leaguers since who knows how they'll end up, but that's a matter for another time. Wizardman 23:32, 9 November 2014 (UTC)

I feel we should always have something on every player on a 40 man roster, although these particular cases are the ones that didn't make it. – Muboshgu (talk) 12:45, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Edgar Ibarra

Any interest in a G7 for Edgar Ibarra? I think it still qualifies unless of course you find some sources.--Yankees10 20:25, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Actually nevermind it looks like your only edit was the actual re-direct and not the info.--Yankees10 20:26, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Todd Takayoshi

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Todd Takayoshi requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.baseball-reference.com/bpv/index.php?title=Todd+Takayoshi. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Brian Babin Wiki Page

Dear Sir,

I'm an interested party who supports Brian Babin, Im also a webmaster and wiki enthusiast. I have been made aware of some content on Mr. Babin's Wiki that is speculative at best and wholly untrue and can be considered a civil tort of defamation and libel. There is Wiki content which states that Mr. Babin had a campaign advisor/manager the age of 21 years old and was gay. We aren't interested in the sexual interest of someone with some secret latent desires... What we are interested in is a imaginary sexual drama played out in a respected person's personal Wiki page. The Wiki posting in question is nothing more than salacious drama meant to disparage and defame a person here, namely Mr. Babin and needs to be removed. The information posted is "erroneous and defamatory" to Mr. Babin.

Should this information be left on the Wiki in question, I will have no alternative but to advise Mr. Babin to seek a restraining order against Wiki and to ask for damages under Texas defamation laws.

Thank you in advance for your interest. Please advise your decision.

I'll take a deeper look at it, since another editor agrees with you. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:34, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

ThaddeusB (talk) 21:14, 17 November 2014 (UTC)

This is my first time using Wikipedia, so I hope I am doing this right.

I actually felt the article about Klingenschmitt was overly biased to the left, and not neutral at all. If it was neutral, it would've included the facts in it that I cited and linked to from credible news sources. So, with that said, I'd prefer if my edits were reinstated because they show both sides of the story and not just the negative side which you portrayed.

Klingenschmitt

Hi Muboshgu,

This is my first time on Wikipedia and doing editing. Thank you for your message. I felt the entry on Gordon Klingenschmitt was overly negative and not neutral at all, which is why I cited articles with facts about who he is. All of the information you proved was obviously negative towards him, which suggests a negative bias against him. I respectfully request my edits to be reinstated, with the sources I cited. Thanks.

Criticsm Section of 2014 World Series article

I think that the entire "criticism" section should be removed. This is the only article on any World Series that includes a criticism section. It was clearly added by a fan of another team who can't stand that the Giants won the World Series again. I'll admit that my comments aren't constructive, but I added them to make a point about the section in general. If you allow the section to remain, you are a hypocrite by allowing one person's bias to stand. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.15.89.6 (talk) 13:50, November 26, 2014‎

I didn't add the section, and you shouldn't be engaging in unconstructive editing or personal attacks. Instead, I suggest you bring this up to the community on the article's talk page, Talk:2014 World Series. Your concern about the section should be discussed. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:07, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

WARNING: Outdated pitching stats (Scott Kazmir)

Please do not remove content or templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Scott Kazmir, without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your content removal does not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please make use of the sandbox if you'd like to experiment with test edits. Thank you.

Your reason to include meaningless W-L record stats and exclude simple, defensive-independent stats was based on the belief that "Wikipedia:WikiProject_Baseball consensus is to use W-L". However, Wikipedia:WikiProject_Baseball/Player_style_advice asserts no consensus on pitching stats. See "statXXlabel, statXXvalue – TBD: guidelines on stats to include".

WikiCup 2015 is just around the corner...

Hello everyone, and may we wish you all a happy holiday season. As you will probably already know, the 2015 WikiCup begins in the new year; there is still time to sign up. We have a few important announcements concerning the future of the WikiCup.

• We would like to announce that Josh (J Milburn) and Ed (The ed17), who have been WikiCup judges since 2009 and 2010 respectively, are stepping down. This decision has been made for a number of reasons, but the main one is time. Both Josh and Ed have found that, over the previous year, they have been unable to devote the time necessary to the WikiCup, and it is not likely that they will be able to do this in the near future. Furthermore, new people at the helm can only help to invigorate the WikiCup and keep it dynamic. Josh and Ed will still be around, and will likely be participating in the Cup this following year as competitors, which is where both started out.
• In a similar vein, we hope you will all join us in welcoming Jason (Sturmvogel 66) and Christine (Figureskatingfan), who are joining Brian (Miyagawa) to form the 2015 WikiCup judging team. Jason is a WikiCup veteran, having won in 2010 and finishing in fifth this year. Christine has participated in two WikiCups, reaching the semi-finals in both, and is responsible for the GA Cup, which she now co-runs.
• The discussions/polls concerning the next competition's rules will be closed soon, and rules changes will be made clear on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring and talk pages. While it may be impossible to please everyone, the judges will make every effort to ensure that the new rules are both fair and in the best interests of the competition, which is, first and foremost, about improving Wikipedia.

If you have any questions or concerns, the judges can be reached on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, on their talk pages, or by email. We hope you will all join us in trying to make the 2015 WikiCup the most productive and enjoyable yet. You are receiving this message because you are listed on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Pat Roberts

You removed my additions to Pat Robert's page. My edits were supported by references. They were not inflammatory. They were factual.

Who gives you the right to decide what can and can't be posted? Please put my posts back as I had them.

JR — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.66.9.131 (talk) 19:55, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I could as easily ask what "gives you the right" to make the edits you made. You removed referenced information on Roberts' residence, you added a link to a site that does not appear to be a reliable source, and your statement that "Senator Roberts is a Kansan by every measure. He meets every requirement for Kansas residency according to state law." is blatantly point of view. Therefore, your edits were not appropriate per Wikipedia policies, and I reverted them. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:00, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

Jon Lester

Jon Lester is on the Chicago Cubs. Its been official for over 12hrs now. Why did you change him back to a free agent? He's 100% officially a Cub. He just tweeted. Theo Epstein tweeted. Ken Rosenthal reported it. The reliable source is from Lester himself I'm pretty sure that's plenty reliable. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rojocube (talk • contribs) 20:36, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

I suggest you read about what is and what is not a reliable source. Those tweets confirm a deal is agreed to, not that it's completed. Remember last year, when Grant Balfour agreed to sign with the Orioles, but then a physical nixed the deal? Could happen here. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:52, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Final warning for the truth.. He's with the Cubs. How is it harassment When it was made official last night. Jon Lester is with the cubs after signing a 6 year $155 million contract. It's the truth it's 100% official stop chaining my edits. What give you the right to change my edits. When I change yours it's harassment. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rojocube (talk • contribs) 21:47, 10 December 2014 (UTC)

Winter meeting onslaught

Thanks for fighting the battle of the premature reports. On a minor note, you may have inadvertently warned a few editors of their "vandalism", when it was likely more of an unsourced edit or OR that it was a done deal. {{uw-nor1}} or {{uw-unsourced1}} would be less biting for first-time warnings. While there are plenty of drive-by editors, a few of these usually turn into long-time productive editors. Thought it's not Twinkle-friendly, there is also Template:Uw-sportstrans. Thanks for the heads up on articles needing protection.—Bagumba (talk) 20:03, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for stepping in as well. I thought I had used {{uw-unsourced1}} in most occasions, while starting with {{uw-unsourced2}} when they deleted the hidden comments added on Rollins or Kemp, since that takes more conscious ignorance to do than the other edits. Then again, I've issued a lot of warnings in the last 24 hours, so maybe I've been harsher than I should be. – Muboshgu (talk) 20:06, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Like I said, it was probably inadvertent. It can certainly feel like vandalism with the uncited edits and people reverting back to the unsourced or OR material :-( Probably why I'm staying on the sidelines a bit more this time around.—Bagumba (talk) 20:47, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Ross Mirkarimi

I don't know if you remember, but a few months ago you and I had differences with user MoneyHunny at the Ross Mirkarimi article. He did a significant rewrite. I just learned that this user has been banned as a sockpuppet. Accordingly, I rolled back the article to before his significant edits. Let's keep an eye on this article in the future. Sockpuppets usually rise from the grave at Wikipedia. Chisme (talk) 16:35, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Yep, I remember. And I saw you roll back those edits. Some of them weren't terrible compromises, if I recall correctly, so may be worth keeping even after the ban. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:39, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

True, but sifting the wheat from the chaff at this point would require way too much work. He really laid into that article, so I did a rollback. That guy sure wasted a lot of people's time! Chisme (talk) 16:48, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

Justin Upton

Hello, I do not know how to access a talk page, but I have credible sources from espn reporters about this trade between the padres and braves. Also it has been 2 hours since the trade has been reported, if there was a mistake, I'm sure it would have been corrected by now, and the braves website has also reported the trade

The Braves have not reported the trade. The ESPN story you're mentioning says "sources told ESPN's Buster Olney and Jerry Crasnick." That's not an official announcement. This is a rumor that hasn't been confirmed yet. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:01, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

I (as you recently know) made the update for The Wiki article "Justin Upton", and you took it away. You said to give you sources about where i got this information, And I have gotten this information From these Sources:

Ken Rosenthal- MLB analyst and his twitter account. Fox Sports 0522bowser (talk) 19:29, 19 December 2014 (UTC)0522bowser

That's not an official announcement. That's an unconfirmed report. – Muboshgu (talk) 19:32, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

WikiCup 2015 launch newsletter

Round one of the 2015 WikiCup has begun! So far we've had around 80 signups, which close on February 5. If you have not already signed up and want to do so, then you can add your name here. There have been changes to to several of the points scores for various categories, and the addition of Peer Reviews for the first time. These will work in the same manner as Good Article Reviews, and all of the changes are summarised here.

Remember that only the top 64 scoring competitors will make it through to the second round, and one of the new changes this year is that all scores must be claimed within two weeks of an article's promotion or appearance, so don't forget to add them to your submissions pages! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages. Good luck!

Disambiguation link notification for January 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Dave Martinez, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages American Association, Roberto Hernandez and Puerto Rican. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Removing by/mlby

Can you try not to remove the mlby/by templates from the infobox like you did here and a few other times lately. I'm sure it's only a mistake. Thanks.--Yankees10 02:34, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

@Yankees10: The date formatting script always removes {{mlby}} and sometimes removes {{by}}. I often take care to replace them, but I see I was a bit careless on Harang. – Muboshgu (talk) 14:26, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

National Register of Historic Places listings in the Town of Islip, New York

I reverted your move of National Register of Historic Places listings in Islip (town), New York to National Register of Historic Places listings in Islip, New York, because Islip is a separate hamlet and census-designated place from the Town of Islip. That NRHP list is for the entire town. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 21:36, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

@DanTD: But there's no article on National Register of Historic Places listings in Islip (hamlet), New York. It's unnecessary disambiguation. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:50, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

No, it's not an unnecessary disambiguation, because it covers the Town, and not just the hamlet. ---------User:DanTD (talk) 21:54, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

I would agree with you if there was a page for the hamlet, but there isn't. We'll see what the CfD consensus is. – Muboshgu (talk) 17:31, 7 January 2015 (UTC)

Congratulations and thanks again for writing / nominating this article. Best wishes, Bencherlite^Talk 12:13, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Wow, that's great! I knew it was in the WP:TOP25, but I didn't realize it ranked that high on the TFA all-time list. The struggles to make it FA were worth it for that. Thanks! – Muboshgu (talk) 15:08, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

John Merrill (politician) page

Hello. I work for the Alabama Secretary of State's office. The additional, in-depth information that I added to the "John Merrill (politician)" article yesterday on January 21, 2015 came directly from Mr. John Merrill himself, for he would like a biographically-detailed Wikipedia page. Please replace the removed information. Thank you. Kennedy2015 (talk) 15:38, 22 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi. I do believe you, but that's not how Wikipedia works. We only add information that can be found in reliable sources. If you can provide some, we can add that information. I will look to source some of that information myself, so that we can expand his biography. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:17, 22 January 2015 (UTC)
