Thanks for the heads up. It probably won't help any claim for notability on my part. I was interviewed by Computer Weekly at the time of the Kuwait war when I was press contact for Electronics and Computing for Peace which eventually merged into Scientists for Global Responsibility and did a week in the life of thing for a newsletter for drug or alcohol workers but I'm not sure that's enough. The assorted crackpots who have denounced me for my contributions here aren'treliable sources.
On the subject of my "fuck knows", I can't help feeling that the Foundation would have a stronger case if it could say something more about how it handles copyrights than "Er, when someone notices an editor is copying lots of stuff we hand them over to CCI and they check through things as quickly as they can. Of course, as it's staffed by only about half a dozen volunteers, there's a backlog of a year or two." The bill might be drafted by the techno-naive, but I don't think Wikimedia can claim to deal with systematic copyvios in a timely manner given the financial resources.-- Peter cohen ( talk) 14:53, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Chzz,
We're currently busy designing some new tests, and we need your feedback/input!
We also have a proposal to test new "accepted," "declined," and "on-hold" templates at Articles for Creation (drafts here). The discussion isn't closed yet, so please weigh in if you're interested.
Thanks for your help! Maryana (WMF) ( talk) 01:30, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your help in clearing this matter up, without your help I would have likely just stopped making use of Wikipedia at all, because I was getting very frustrated after only a short time, because I have encountered several hostile editors and few, like yourself, who have been willing to help someone new. Again, I appreciate your efforts and give you my sincere THANKS... Willietell ( talk) 19:11, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi. In Julia Child Rose, you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Floribunda ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Hi Chzz. Did you also take nitice of this line?
This article has already been submitted as Bodhidharma/Birthplace sources. The present submission was done without discussion with the author, after removing a substantial part of the article without discussion, and without taking notice of the reasons for creating this page, which can be found at Talk:Bodhidharma/Birthplace sources. Joshua Jonathan ( talk) 08:21, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
Friendly regards, Joshua Jonathan ( talk) 12:31, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Madi submitted a draft which was in my userspace, without any deliberation with me. the intent of the draft was to collect various sources which are being mentioned as references in an ongoing discussion on Bodhidharma's birthplace at the Bodhidharma page. There's also deliberation going on of what's the best way to collect these sources. Madi did shortcut this by submitting the draft. As a matter of fact, the page had already been created as a mainpage, and deleted. Sorry, my irritations are toward Madi, not to you. Friendly regards, Joshua Jonathan ( talk) 12:54, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

{{AFC submission|||ts=20111220090937|u=Cloveapple|ns=5}}
- you could've manually edited that, and changed the "u=" to the user you were helping. Because, that's who will get any notification.Hi Chzz. I restored my messages at User talk:LieneCL that you removed with the edit summary 'clear older messages'. In addition to the version of the article that is at AFC, there is a version currently in mainspace that is tagged as G11 by me. Removing the notification, unless you were going to also decline the g11, makes it unlikely that the user would post to defend the page. That may be moot as their old version is at AFC, I agree...but one could just as easily say the AFC version is moot because the article now exists in mainspace.
My COI note to them is valid in any case and should probably not have been removed except by them.
I could see 'clear older messages' being used to remove notes from several months or years ago. Using it for messages ~1 hour old seems odd. Regards, Syrthiss ( talk) 15:46, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Syrthiss, hey; since the above, the user has worked on the draft, and improved it; [5]
I've had a quick look at that, and - without fully checking - I think it'll be OK, if I tidy it up a bit.
So, my question to you is... do you think that is "acceptable"? ie, if I tidy it up, are you happy if I make it live again?

I'm not sure what I need to do. In (A7) it mentions "This criterion applies only to articles about web content and to articles about people, organizations, and individual animals themselves, not to articles about their books, albums, software, or other creative works." My article is about a book.

Hi Chzz:
You reviewed a new article I've been working on the other day and I'm wondering if you could tell me if I've responded to your feedback correctly / adequately. Your comments were:
"Concerned that a) All of the actual biographical content is unreferenced, that IMDB and YouTube (and possibly other references) are not reliable sources, and that refs such as [1] do not actually mention this person"
I found and linked to several additional articles online that refer to this individual's titles at a couple of points in his career to support his career history. I was also able to find an oral history that a graduate student at a university published that literally has his life's history as he told it to him/her. It not only corroborates the facts in the article, but (if I took the time) could be used to add an enormous amount of additional detail about his life. (How much of the "life story" information is appropriate for Wikipedia?) I think I cited / linked to that correctly (it's a PDF on an academic website). My links to IMDB and YouTube were just to corroborate his participation in the projects I referenced. If I put on my reader hat, I find them helpful. I'm not experienced enough as a contributor to know whether they're better left out (let me know?). The reference above you cite as not actually mentioning the person has been removed as a link.
I have looked at a number of biographical articles, and there are many degrees of referencing that people provide to support various life facts. If you have further suggestions for how to better substantiate this, I'd love additional direction. Otherwise, I think it's ready to be resubmitted. Please advise.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, Chzz,
I created page called OpenVReg, which is a open source design and pin to pin compatible Power IC design. I think this is significant progress in current IC industry, since most IC company protect each and sue others via patent law. To do so, they need to claim uniq ic design from other, which makes variety of power ICs with similar function on the market.
While this OpenVReg is a pin-to-pin compatible power IC design standard, majorly driven by NVIDIA. I am one of the engineers that create this ideas. OpenVReg shares patents across companies, which is so called Open Source design. It is just lunched and have 14 major companies joined.
I got some bad ass on the wikepedia saying my page about OpenVReg is advertising, which is not a truth. OpenVReg do not need ads. Companies just adopted if they want to.
But I do not know to solve this issue. I want to record my work of OpenVReg on wiki.
Do you know how to do to avoid my page being deleted by another hard ass again?

Hi Chzz, Howard Bloom is the guy who conceived the Bloom Filter which is used by Google, IBM and many researchers extensively in their algorithms. I was surprised that Wikipedia does not have a page on him. So it would be reasonable to say he deserves an inclusion.

Hello Chzz,
I have done everything ALL administrators have asked for the page Finney Ross. I have cited all resources, I have cited his importance to the Rodeo community. I was told to do these things. I complied. Please tell me what else I need to do.
Please don't send me to a blue link to click on. It is too confusing for me. Just tell me what I need to do.
Ross might seem like a non-notable person to people who sit behind a computer all day, but he was extremely important to the Rodeo community and early Rodeo craftsman history.

So - can you tell me, are those specific facts covered in one or more published articles? ie - where could someone check those things, if they wanted? If they're in an issue of the Houston Post, can you tell me what the title of the article(s) are, the page number, the date, and - if there is one - the author of the article.
Let me know by replying here, and we can work forwards from there. I'm quite happy to help you with all the formatting and things - all I really need to know are where specific facts about this person - not about his creations - can be verified. Thanks. Chzz ► 00:40, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

Hello Chzzmeister! How's things? I hope I find you well, and that Jayne Mansfield is behaving herself. Thanks for tipping up at the GA review for Reculver the other day - did you see my comment after, starting "Yep, you have!" and dated 15:05, 19 December 2011 (UTC) (scroll down)? When I posted that comment, I think I was a bit confused about whether you were referring to refs for paras or sentences, but anyway, any thoughts? No worries if not!
Another thing though, Senra has suggested I ask you about some copying I mean to do, from a sandbox into Reculver article space. Point is, I've copied the whole article to the sandbox to do some pretty major re-writing of paras and re-jigging of sections, with the idea that I'd then copy my changes back to the article, with an edit summary as usual. I felt that this (A) would be an obvious, non-controversial thing to do, and (B) would in any case be covered by Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia#Where attribution is not needed – obviously I'm not the "sole contributor" of all the text involved, but after all this time I suspect that I might virtually be, and, as I say, I'm only planning to copy back my changes, QED. Senra's obviously right to query it, and you're perfectly welcome to tell me I've got that all arse about tit!

When I began this article as a user page, I didn't know that when I submitted it, that the article went through some review process. If you checked, you'd see I've created over 80 articles. The only reason I used the user page was because this was a lengthier and more complicated(It has nearly 40 different citations in it) than any other article I had written before. All my other articles I completed in one day, or usually in one sitting.
I did the article even though the most prolific editor of wikipedia golf articles thought an independent article wasn't necessary. [9] It is golf's biggest golf cheating controversy in 50 years and is not well remember. An article about it should keep it from being forgotten. Cheers- William 00:31, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your help on the Sergio franchi discography. I am currently doing a major upgrade on the Sergio Franchi Stub article. I have experienced a rather arrogant editor removing a whole section on Personal Interests and Hobbies, and most of the information on Personal life. From the examples I have read, personal life is acceptable information. I have been discreet, and neutral. However the current deletion called my information "tabloid" in nature. That may be one person's opinion. Can you HELP ME? Nor only have sections been deleted, but he has messed up my references. I guess that is what I get for not working in a sandbox.. but I didn't know how to move an article from a sandbox. I am very upset with the arrogance of this editor! How do you encourage new editors with this type of arrogant interference when I am writing an article. And I do have a Master's Degree. I guess you can tell I am very upset.

I'm sure this title will evoke fond memories... A reviewer has again rejected this article for the same reason as that of the previous reviewer: "This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter". We discussed it, and I was under the impression that it wasn't the context that was insufficient but Citing sources, which I then addressed. If I'm correct, could you please confirm your advice, somewhere in my/his(her) talk page, or anywhere deemed relevant (I don't know), so the next reviewer can take it from there. And if he/she still feels the context insufficient, he/she might be compelled to offer a more substantive and specific explanation than those previously provided, so that I can actually understand his/her point of view. Everyone's input would then me more efficiently used.
Thank you, and happy holidays.

Hello Chzz, Happy Holidays. Thanks for reviewing Coalition of Hope draft entry ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Coalition_of_Hope). Yep, there are a lot of unsourced/unreferenced concepts within the article. Much of what is in the article comes from email traffic and conference calls. Is there a way to source/identify email traffic to Wiki standards? I'm guessing not likely. This COH concept is so new that there is little secondary reporting on it, but it is an important project with great potential in humanitarian service. There must be a way to bring this article up to Wiki standards. Can you recommend a similar, new-source article on Wiki that has 'made the cut' I might refer to for guidance?

Chzz, would you consider stepping in as a third party to a dispute? I don't want to burden you with any details (though it isn't impossible to figure out)... I don't want to take up any more of your time than you're used to spending if such an act is too time-consuming. For reference, I'm on the border of a dispute request, and I feel I've exhausted other options. Thanks for any reply. Squish7 ( talk) 04:01, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
I created the page because it is one of Harold Lloyd's best known works but did not have a page. I created one which is accurate and has several references and yet was denied when you submitted it for review. A stub classification might be fair but to remove it entirely only removes information from Wikipedia users and prevents others from contributing to improve it. How is this helpful? I don't want to put time and effort into creating pages if it is going to be wasted unless I commit to working on it indefinitely. I hope this does not sound like a rant and I apologize if it does. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TestOfTime ( talk • contribs) 16:13, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up. It probably won't help any claim for notability on my part. I was interviewed by Computer Weekly at the time of the Kuwait war when I was press contact for Electronics and Computing for Peace which eventually merged into Scientists for Global Responsibility and did a week in the life of thing for a newsletter for drug or alcohol workers but I'm not sure that's enough. The assorted crackpots who have denounced me for my contributions here aren'treliable sources.
On the subject of my "fuck knows", I can't help feeling that the Foundation would have a stronger case if it could say something more about how it handles copyrights than "Er, when someone notices an editor is copying lots of stuff we hand them over to CCI and they check through things as quickly as they can. Of course, as it's staffed by only about half a dozen volunteers, there's a backlog of a year or two." The bill might be drafted by the techno-naive, but I don't think Wikimedia can claim to deal with systematic copyvios in a timely manner given the financial resources.-- Peter cohen ( talk) 14:53, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi Chzz. Did you also take nitice of this line?
This article has already been submitted as Bodhidharma/Birthplace sources. The present submission was done without discussion with the author, after removing a substantial part of the article without discussion, and without taking notice of the reasons for creating this page, which can be found at Talk:Bodhidharma/Birthplace sources.

Madi submitted a draft which was in my userspace, without any deliberation with me. the intent of the draft was to collect various sources which are being mentioned as references in an ongoing discussion on Bodhidharma's birthplace at the Bodhidharma page. There's also deliberation going on of what's the best way to collect these sources. Madi did shortcut this by submitting the draft. As a matter of fact, the page had already been created as a mainpage, and deleted. Sorry, my irritations are toward Madi, not to you.

- you could've manually edited that, and changed the "u=" to the user you were helping. Because, that's who will get any notification.Hi Chzz. I restored my messages at User talk:LieneCL that you removed with the edit summary 'clear older messages'. In addition to the version of the article that is at AFC, there is a version currently in mainspace that is tagged as G11 by me. Removing the notification, unless you were going to also decline the g11, makes it unlikely that the user would post to defend the page. That may be moot as their old version is at AFC, I agree...but one could just as easily say the AFC version is moot because the article now exists in mainspace.
My COI note to them is valid in any case and should probably not have been removed except by them.
I could see 'clear older messages' being used to remove notes from several months or years ago. Using it for messages ~1 hour old seems odd. Regards, Syrthiss ( talk) 15:46, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Hi Chzz:
You reviewed a new article I've been working on the other day and I'm wondering if you could tell me if I've responded to your feedback correctly / adequately. Your comments were:
"Concerned that a) All of the actual biographical content is unreferenced, that IMDB and YouTube (and possibly other references) are not reliable sources, and that refs such as [1] do not actually mention this person"
I found and linked to several additional articles online that refer to this individual's titles at a couple of points in his career to support his career history. I was also able to find an oral history that a graduate student at a university published that literally has his life's history as he told it to him/her. It not only corroborates the facts in the article, but (if I took the time) could be used to add an enormous amount of additional detail about his life. (How much of the "life story" information is appropriate for Wikipedia?) I think I cited / linked to that correctly (it's a PDF on an academic website). My links to IMDB and YouTube were just to corroborate his participation in the projects I referenced. If I put on my reader hat, I find them helpful. I'm not experienced enough as a contributor to know whether they're better left out (let me know?). The reference above you cite as not actually mentioning the person has been removed as a link.
I have looked at a number of biographical articles, and there are many degrees of referencing that people provide to support various life facts. If you have further suggestions for how to better substantiate this, I'd love additional direction. Otherwise, I think it's ready to be resubmitted. Please advise.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, Chzz,
I created page called OpenVReg, which is a open source design and pin to pin compatible Power IC design. I think this is significant progress in current IC industry, since most IC company protect each and sue others via patent law. To do so, they need to claim uniq ic design from other, which makes variety of power ICs with similar function on the market.
While this OpenVReg is a pin-to-pin compatible power IC design standard, majorly driven by NVIDIA. I am one of the engineers that create this ideas. OpenVReg shares patents across companies, which is so called Open Source design. It is just lunched and have 14 major companies joined.
I got some bad ass on the wikepedia saying my page about OpenVReg is advertising, which is not a truth. OpenVReg do not need ads. Companies just adopted if they want to.
But I do not know to solve this issue. I want to record my work of OpenVReg on wiki.
Do you know how to do to avoid my page being deleted by another hard ass again?

Hello Chzzmeister! How's things? I hope I find you well, and that Jayne Mansfield is behaving herself. Thanks for tipping up at the GA review for Reculver the other day - did you see my comment after, starting "Yep, you have!" and dated 15:05, 19 December 2011 (UTC) (scroll down)? When I posted that comment, I think I was a bit confused about whether you were referring to refs for paras or sentences, but anyway, any thoughts? No worries if not!
Another thing though, Senra has suggested I ask you about some copying I mean to do, from a sandbox into Reculver article space. Point is, I've copied the whole article to the sandbox to do some pretty major re-writing of paras and re-jigging of sections, with the idea that I'd then copy my changes back to the article, with an edit summary as usual. I felt that this (A) would be an obvious, non-controversial thing to do, and (B) would in any case be covered by Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia#Where attribution is not needed – obviously I'm not the "sole contributor" of all the text involved, but after all this time I suspect that I might virtually be, and, as I say, I'm only planning to copy back my changes, QED. Senra's obviously right to query it, and you're perfectly welcome to tell me I've got that all arse about tit!

When I began this article as a user page, I didn't know that when I submitted it, that the article went through some review process. If you checked, you'd see I've created over 80 articles. The only reason I used the user page was because this was a lengthier and more complicated(It has nearly 40 different citations in it) than any other article I had written before. All my other articles I completed in one day, or usually in one sitting.
I did the article even though the most prolific editor of wikipedia golf articles thought an independent article wasn't necessary. [9] It is golf's biggest golf cheating controversy in 50 years and is not well remember. An article about it should keep it from being forgotten. Cheers- William 00:31, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your help on the Sergio franchi discography. I am currently doing a major upgrade on the Sergio Franchi Stub article. I have experienced a rather arrogant editor removing a whole section on Personal Interests and Hobbies, and most of the information on Personal life. From the examples I have read, personal life is acceptable information. I have been discreet, and neutral. However the current deletion called my information "tabloid" in nature. That may be one person's opinion. Can you HELP ME? Nor only have sections been deleted, but he has messed up my references. I guess that is what I get for not working in a sandbox.. but I didn't know how to move an article from a sandbox. I am very upset with the arrogance of this editor!

I'm sure this title will evoke fond memories... A reviewer has again rejected this article for the same reason as that of the previous reviewer: "This article provides insufficient context for those unfamiliar with the subject matter". We discussed it, and I was under the impression that it wasn't the context that was insufficient but Citing sources, which I then addressed. If I'm correct, could you please confirm your advice, somewhere in my/his(her) talk page, or anywhere deemed relevant (I don't know), so the next reviewer can take it from there. And if he/she still feels the context insufficient, he/she might be compelled to offer a more substantive and specific explanation than those previously provided, so that I can actually understand his/her point of view. Everyone's input would then me more efficiently used.

I have suggested that as a (very obviously) young editor it might be appropriate to push towards the adopt-a-user programme. What do you think? -- Bob Re-born ( talk) 11:55, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
Dear Chzz, Thank you for your kind support on 25.12.2011 Am onto it Regards, Nick NPRFTE Nick Robinson 14:49, 27 December 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by NPRFTE ( talk • contribs)
Hello Chzz, Happy Holidays. Thanks for reviewing Coalition of Hope draft entry ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Coalition_of_Hope). Yep, there are a lot of unsourced/unreferenced concepts within the article. Much of what is in the article comes from email traffic and conference calls. Is there a way to source/identify email traffic to Wiki standards? I'm guessing not likely. This COH concept is so new that there is little secondary reporting on it, but it is an important project with great potential in humanitarian service. There must be a way to bring this article up to Wiki standards. Can you recommend a similar, new-source article on Wiki that has 'made the cut' I might refer to for guidance? I think I've chosen a difficult topic for my first Wikipedia article. Any advice you can send is appreciated! Thanks G H Smith ( talk) 16:08, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Many thanks for reviewing my article. I agree that Discogs should not be used as a source and I'll remove that. I'll get back in touch when I've tracked down some more sources and referenced each fact . Best for now, Drywell ( talk) 19:11, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
☺ nice beans up there ;) benzband ( talk) 21:10, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
Chzz, would you consider stepping in as a third party to a dispute? I don't want to burden you with any details (though it isn't impossible to figure out)... I don't want to take up any more of your time than you're used to spending if such an act is too time-consuming. For reference, I'm on the border of a dispute request, and I feel I've exhausted other options. Thanks for any reply. Squish7 ( talk) 04:01, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
I created the page because it is one of Harold Lloyd's best known works but did not have a page. I created one which is accurate and has several references and yet was denied when you submitted it for review. A stub classification might be fair but to remove it entirely only removes information from Wikipedia users and prevents others from contributing to improve it. How is this helpful? I don't want to put time and effort into creating pages if it is going to be wasted unless I commit to working on it indefinitely. I hope this does not sound like a rant and I apologize if it does. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TestOfTime ( talk • contribs) 16:13, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
