Dori, thanks for your contact. Myself and another person has been trying to follow all of the guidelines but being novices in the Wikipedia world is making it tough. There is an Article for KICKSTARTER.COM which is a crowdfunding website for artistic projects. FundaGeek.com is a crowdfunding website for Innovative Technical and Scientific Research projects. They are helping inventors & scientific researchers get funding for really good projects. I've been looking for someone who can help me comply with the requirements. The other person who started the article is gone. And they had less of a clue than I do. Do you have any suggestions? NSAIN1947 ( talk) 15:47, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I have made a change on Unchahar page of wikipedia. Just provided a link (external) for a valid institution website. Hope you will approve.

Hey DoriSmith/Archive 12 :). A quick update on how things are going with the New Page Triage/New Pages Feed project. As the enwiki page notes, the project is divided into two chunks: the "list view" (essentially an updated version of Special:NewPages) and the "article view", a view you'll be presented with when you open up individual articles that contains a toolbar with lots of options to interact with the page - patrolling it, adding maintenance tags, nominating it for deletion, so on.
On the list view front, we're pretty much done! We tried deploying it to enwiki, in line with our Engagement Strategy on Wednesday, but ran into bugs and had to reschedule - the same happened on Thursday :(. We've queued a new deployment for Monday PST, and hopefully that one will go better. If it does, the software will be ready to play around with and test by the following week! :).
On the article view front, the developers are doing some fantastic work designing the toolbar, which we're calling the "curation bar"; you can see a mockup here. A stripped-down version of this should be ready to deploy fairly soon after the list view is; I'm afraid I don't have precise dates yet. When I have more info, or can unleash everyone to test the list view, I'll let you know :). As always, any questions to the talkpage for the project or mine. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) ( talk) 23:31, 5 May 2012 (UTC)
Dear Ms. Smith, I am writing to inquire why you changed the content of my article today? It was approved and all my references are verifiable. The changes you made render the content innacurate, and the sentences no longer make sense. Can you please help me bring the article back to the condition it was in at 20:37 on May 8. Your changes appear to have occurred at 23:22, May 8.

Dori, it looks good! Thank you! What can we can do to remove the flags? The public page still shows COI, weasel and other flags related to the verifiability of references.
Thank you so much for your help and input. Meredith at DBA ( talk) 13:42, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
I'd like to keep working toward a goal of having no comments. I understand I can no longer edit this article. Perhaps I can suggest ways of editing to omit the comments? For instance: Can you please let me know what kind of proof is needed for Berke's 2 partners and principals? A link or reference to the firm's website would show those 4 people, but my understanding is that is not acceptable to the Wikipedia community.
Perhaps we should remove the phrase "creative institutional" - it is a direct quote from a magazine but it can come out if that would improve the sentence and let us be rid of the "buzzword" comment.
As for a third party source needed regarding the firm has won "numerous awards", the rest of the paragraph shows those sources. However, if asserting that the firm has won awards is not appropriate, perhaps remove that sentence and begin the paragraph with the 2nd sentence: "The 21c Museum Hotel...".
Current projects are projects happening right now, as we speak, in 2012. They will be complete over the next 2-3 years respectively. I can provide those dates tomorrow morning if that would be useful?
Thank you again. I am truly grateful to you for your help. 67.85.225.12 ( talk) 00:12, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

I am absolutely NOT agree with the answer I received after adding the link to my blog ! I am a collector of barbie and I am very proud to show it ! because there was nothing to find about the barbie Tutti (my favorite), I decided to open a page especially for her, a lot of people were very happy to find some information and were able to complete their collection. There was nothing to find anymore about Tutti after '69, but here in Europe they continued the production. My collection is complete and you will soon see pictures of her with every outfit. I don't understand where the problem is ! the other link "tutti's playhouse" have done the same work as I did and have asked help to complete her blog with pictures of the european outfits for Tutti, and I WILL NOT give her them, she can buy them like I did ! She has the same blog as mine but mine is complete ! So, again, I don't understand why is the link to my blog for the Tutti page not allowed ! my blog is in french but easy to translate ! people could find me on google with writting barbie tutti sets, but now NOT anymore... why ???????????????? because I tried to add the link of my blog ? ! After a few pages it has nothing to do with barbie anymore and my blog is not to find (only with my name) ! and I am not happy with it my blog has nothing to do with promotion or selling !

unsourced BLPs for members of any important sports team, at least from English-speaking countries, can always be sourced. . I consequently removed your BLP prod on Adrian Taylor after adding one of the available refs. You could have done it. It's a lot of work checking the prods, and it needs some degree of cooperation by other people not prodding sourceable articles. That way, I & the very few other admins who have taken the responsibility for patrolling prod, can concentrate on the ones that may be more difficult to source, and more accurately remove the unsourceable. And since many of the prods turn out to be for players who are in fact not notable, the quickest way of removing them is to add the ref, see if they are notable , and prod accordingly.

Hi Dori,
Apologies for causing any inconvenience about the article I was about to create. I was asked by my publisher to create a Wikipedia page, but it seems there must be some misunderstanding, as your policies (and your response to my attempt to create the article) don't seem to cater for that.
If I'm wrong in my assumptions, please let me know.

Hey all :). A notification that the prototype for the New Pages Feed is now live on enwiki! We had to briefly take it down after an unfortunate bug started showing up, but it's now live and we will continue developing it on-site.
The page can be found at Special:NewPagesFeed. Please, please, please test it and tell us what you think! Note that as a prototype it will inevitably have bugs - if you find one not already mentioned at the talkpage, bring it up and I'm happy to carry it through to the devs. The same is true of any additions you can think of to the software, or any questions you might have - let me know and I'll respond.

hi Dori,
thanks for your patience. my friends were in super panic mode about getting their page deleted, so I (the newbie) tried to get it cleaned up from a text perspective, (making it objective) but then ran into a reference list issue late last night.
I will ramp up on wiki so I will not screw the page up again, and will be using a good wiki writer to fix everything so the article is worthy of readership and your approval.
I will get on this right away, so please do not delete stew kosoy's page!
thanks again.

Dori,
I was reading through your editing of my article William Todd Tribell. I have researched this subject independently but do not understand some of your changes and hope you can elaborate at least for my benefit.
Thanks for answering my questions. NatashaBrun ( talk) 06:32, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
P.S. while researching this subject... i have noticed two semi-related articles which are far less documented than that of Tribel. Avo Uvezian and Davidoff which have no citations to speak of and tons of information. Based on your corrections on my article, I dont feel that i have the status in Wikipedia to clean those up but certainly you do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NatashaBrun ( talk • contribs) 06:48, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
this Gamesindustry.biz article:The company is headed by co-founder Todd Tribell
and this Venturebeat.com article:According to Swiss corporate database Monetas the company currently has three registered employees, including Tribell, Eugene Stewart Kosoy and president Artem Golubchenko
Tribell has no experience in the game industry but will be announcing an unnamed chief operating officer soon
If Tribell heads DCC, and he's not DCC's president or COO, then (imo), he's the CEO—particularly given that all three articles were posted on the same day (1 February 2012). There may be other explanations, but I can't think of one.
The term has widely disparate geopolitical, geographical, cultural and socioeconomic readings
As the article says later, Poland can be considered to be part of Eastern or Central Europe, and Bulgaria as part of Eastern, Central, or Southeastern Europe. My take: this is all part of the lead, so it's okay to be general—specifics go in the article body.
Personally, I don't see that that is sufficient to support:Car detailer sets up shop in parking deckByline: NEWS Arkansas Inc. Todd Tribell is back. And he's downtown in the new parking deck at the north end of Main Street, in essence helping Metrocentre Improvement District enhance the services of its two new pa…
Less than three years later, he relocated the business to Little Rock's Main Street to enhance the services in the area and show his support for the vision of a revived Downtown area.
There's a number of problems here (again, imo): "back" usually means that someone went away; a car detailer working out of a parking structure normally would sound to me like just a couple of guys with buckets and rags; and there's nothing about "relocation" or "a revived Downtown area"; etc.
There's a couple of reasons here: First, note that the date next to Natalya Rizhkova's name at the bottom of the article isn't the same as the article date. So what is it? Well, if you take a look at other articles on their site, such as this one, and scroll down to the bottom, you can see that that's the credit for the images, not the credit for the writer. The author name is over on the right-hand side: "Hendrik Kelner." Or at least that's the way it reads to me.
I don't see how that supports:in support of children with cancer… a lion sculpted in Kenya drew 3000 euros. The high bid was made by William Todd Tribell, who represents Davidoff Cigars… he also donated the cigar box
After Estonia's independence from the Soviet Union, Tribell was an early supporter of the Tallinn Children's Hospital Foundation where during its infancy, he introduced the foundation to members of the corporate community who he encouraged, by example, to donate both time and money.
Given that Estonia declared their independence in 1988 and this event took place twelve years later, it doesn't make him "an early supporter", nor does donating one item to and purchasing one item at a single charity auction describe "[introducing] the foundation to members of the corporate community" or an encouragement of them to donate time. Perhaps that's all in the other Estonian article, but I don't have access to it.
I looked at the swiss database you mentioned and continued further from their link to the official register here: http://www.hrazg.ch/webservices/inet/HRG/HRG.asmx/getHRGHTML?amt=170&toBeModified=0&validOnly=0&lang=1&sort=0&chnr=CH17030364042 It says that he is a member of the board - not employee. Only the article call him a co-founder.
ok - fair enough
I have re-read the entire article. Apparently, you are partially right. He sold the business before to someone else and it "ceased to be" in some time. He re-registered the company and made a deal with some officials to re-open it in that Downtown area. According to the article he moved to that area to live as well which is what gave me the impression i mentioned: "To show support and enthusiasm for his downtown adventure, Tribell has moved into the downtown historic district". According to the article, he had a real business etc. I also found records with the local government there that support that he had a real business. The article mentioned the business was subcontracted by a city contractor, so i am guessing that was a real business. It also mentioned he had four employees working for him, so logically if he was working with the city at arms length and he had empolyees, it had to be real.
I looked at this again, lucky for me; I am half Russian - so i can read those pages... The right hand side you refer to is a promotion for a blog. I looked at other articles and found different authors for different ones. I will leave that up to you.
Estonia was only separated from Russia in reality in 1994. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/en.html I am not trying to indicate that he was an early supporter of Estonian independence (maybe my bad) but rather that he was actively supporting the Childrens hospital at a time that no body cared about anything other than stealing land and factories from the government. Even today, even teh rich dont care about charity in these countries unless it is convenient. I know i cant include this, but it is known that he gave money to the hospital then and worked with a member of parliament to get big companies like Coca Cola and MacDonalds involved; according to the former director there. I will try to re-write this to make more sense to you.

Hi Dori, I added some new references in the biography and I am fine with no photograph. Are we good or do I need to do more? I'm sorry but I am sort of new to this and I can't figure out how to talk on my Talk Page. Thanks for your help. Linda Gulley Linda Gulley ( talk) 01:43, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I have made a change on Unchahar page of wikipedia. Just provided a link (external) for a valid institution website. Hope you will approve.

Hey DoriSmith/Archive 12 :). A quick update on how things are going with the New Page Triage/New Pages Feed project. As the enwiki page notes, the project is divided into two chunks: the "list view" (essentially an updated version of Special:NewPages) and the "article view", a view you'll be presented with when you open up individual articles that contains a toolbar with lots of options to interact with the page - patrolling it, adding maintenance tags, nominating it for deletion, so on.
On the list view front, we're pretty much done! We tried deploying it to enwiki, in line with our Engagement Strategy on Wednesday, but ran into bugs and had to reschedule - the same happened on Thursday :(. We've queued a new deployment for Monday PST, and hopefully that one will go better. If it does, the software will be ready to play around with and test by the following week! :).
On the article view front, the developers are doing some fantastic work designing the toolbar, which we're calling the "curation bar"; you can see a mockup here. A stripped-down version of this should be ready to deploy fairly soon after the list view is; I'm afraid I don't have precise dates yet. When I have more info, or can unleash everyone to test the list view, I'll let you know :). As always, any questions to the talkpage for the project or mine. Thanks!

Dear Ms. Smith, I am writing to inquire why you changed the content of my article today? It was approved and all my references are verifiable. The changes you made render the content innacurate, and the sentences no longer make sense. Can you please help me bring the article back to the condition it was in at 20:37 on May 8. Your changes appear to have occurred at 23:22, May 8.

Dori, it looks good! Thank you! What can we can do to remove the flags? The public page still shows COI, weasel and other flags related to the verifiability of references.
Thank you so much for your help and input. Meredith at DBA ( talk) 13:42, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
I'd like to keep working toward a goal of having no comments. I understand I can no longer edit this article. Perhaps I can suggest ways of editing to omit the comments? For instance: Can you please let me know what kind of proof is needed for Berke's 2 partners and principals? A link or reference to the firm's website would show those 4 people, but my understanding is that is not acceptable to the Wikipedia community.
Perhaps we should remove the phrase "creative institutional" - it is a direct quote from a magazine but it can come out if that would improve the sentence and let us be rid of the "buzzword" comment.
As for a third party source needed regarding the firm has won "numerous awards", the rest of the paragraph shows those sources. However, if asserting that the firm has won awards is not appropriate, perhaps remove that sentence and begin the paragraph with the 2nd sentence: "The 21c Museum Hotel...".
Current projects are projects happening right now, as we speak, in 2012. They will be complete over the next 2-3 years respectively. I can provide those dates tomorrow morning if that would be useful?
Thank you again. I am truly grateful to you for your help. 67.85.225.12 ( talk) 00:12, 11 May 2012 (UTC)

I am absolutely NOT agree with the answer I received after adding the link to my blog ! I am a collector of barbie and I am very proud to show it ! because there was nothing to find about the barbie Tutti (my favorite), I decided to open a page especially for her, a lot of people were very happy to find some information and were able to complete their collection. There was nothing to find anymore about Tutti after '69, but here in Europe they continued the production. My collection is complete and you will soon see pictures of her with every outfit. I don't understand where the problem is ! the other link "tutti's playhouse" have done the same work as I did and have asked help to complete her blog with pictures of the european outfits for Tutti, and I WILL NOT give her them, she can buy them like I did ! She has the same blog as mine but mine is complete ! So, again, I don't understand why is the link to my blog for the Tutti page not allowed ! my blog is in french but easy to translate ! people could find me on google with writting barbie tutti sets, but now NOT anymore... why ???????????????? because I tried to add the link of my blog ? ! After a few pages it has nothing to do with barbie anymore and my blog is not to find (only with my name) ! and I am not happy with it my blog has nothing to do with promotion or selling !

unsourced BLPs for members of any important sports team, at least from English-speaking countries, can always be sourced. . I consequently removed your BLP prod on Adrian Taylor after adding one of the available refs. You could have done it. It's a lot of work checking the prods, and it needs some degree of cooperation by other people not prodding sourceable articles. That way, I & the very few other admins who have taken the responsibility for patrolling prod, can concentrate on the ones that may be more difficult to source, and more accurately remove the unsourceable. And since many of the prods turn out to be for players who are in fact not notable, the quickest way of removing them is to add the ref, see if they are notable , and prod accordingly.

I noticed that you replaced the speedy delete notice at Flint stone bracelets and armlets of Egypt with a copyvio investigation notice. Looking at Ashashyou ( talk · contribs)'s recent edits, I notice some massive copyvio at Nawamis and more copyvio in other articles recently, mainly reverted.

I noticed the copyvio at Nawamis and Ancient Egypt as well and reverted them both, but someone probably ought to go through much of this guy's past contributions and see how much damage he's caused elsewhere. Dori ☾ Talk ⁘ Contribs☽ 18:25, 14 May 2012 (UTC)

I have submitted this article. There is no conventional publications which can be quoted as a reference, so I have used my personal interviews with him and a publication of the College (Senior School) that he has help establish and is involved in. Apparently this doesn't satisfy Wikipedia standards for publications. Please advise how I can overcome this difficulty.

Hi Dori,
Apologies for causing any inconvenience about the article I was about to create. I was asked by my publisher to create a Wikipedia page, but it seems there must be some misunderstanding, as your policies (and your response to my attempt to create the article) don't seem to cater for that.
If I'm wrong in my assumptions, please let me know.
Warmest regards

Hey all :). A notification that the prototype for the New Pages Feed is now live on enwiki! We had to briefly take it down after an unfortunate bug started showing up, but it's now live and we will continue developing it on-site.
The page can be found at Special:NewPagesFeed. Please, please, please test it and tell us what you think! Note that as a prototype it will inevitably have bugs - if you find one not already mentioned at the talkpage, bring it up and I'm happy to carry it through to the devs. The same is true of any additions you can think of to the software, or any questions you might have - let me know and I'll respond.

hi Dori,
thanks for your patience. my friends were in super panic mode about getting their page deleted, so I (the newbie) tried to get it cleaned up from a text perspective, (making it objective) but then ran into a reference list issue late last night.
I will ramp up on wiki so I will not screw the page up again, and will be using a good wiki writer to fix everything so the article is worthy of readership and your approval.
I will get on this right away, so please do not delete stew kosoy's page!
thanks again.

Dori,
I was reading through your editing of my article William Todd Tribell. I have researched this subject independently but do not understand some of your changes and hope you can elaborate at least for my benefit.
Thanks for answering my questions. NatashaBrun ( talk) 06:32, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
P.S. while researching this subject... i have noticed two semi-related articles which are far less documented than that of Tribel. Avo Uvezian and Davidoff which have no citations to speak of and tons of information. Based on your corrections on my article, I dont feel that i have the status in Wikipedia to clean those up but certainly you do. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NatashaBrun ( talk • contribs) 06:48, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
this Gamesindustry.biz article:The company is headed by co-founder Todd Tribell
and this Venturebeat.com article:According to Swiss corporate database Monetas the company currently has three registered employees, including Tribell, Eugene Stewart Kosoy and president Artem Golubchenko
Tribell has no experience in the game industry but will be announcing an unnamed chief operating officer soon
If Tribell heads DCC, and he's not DCC's president or COO, then (imo), he's the CEO—particularly given that all three articles were posted on the same day (1 February 2012). There may be other explanations, but I can't think of one.
The term has widely disparate geopolitical, geographical, cultural and socioeconomic readings
As the article says later, Poland can be considered to be part of Eastern or Central Europe, and Bulgaria as part of Eastern, Central, or Southeastern Europe. My take: this is all part of the lead, so it's okay to be general—specifics go in the article body.
Personally, I don't see that that is sufficient to support:Car detailer sets up shop in parking deckByline: NEWS Arkansas Inc. Todd Tribell is back. And he's downtown in the new parking deck at the north end of Main Street, in essence helping Metrocentre Improvement District enhance the services of its two new pa…
Less than three years later, he relocated the business to Little Rock's Main Street to enhance the services in the area and show his support for the vision of a revived Downtown area.
There's a number of problems here (again, imo): "back" usually means that someone went away; a car detailer working out of a parking structure normally would sound to me like just a couple of guys with buckets and rags; and there's nothing about "relocation" or "a revived Downtown area"; etc.
There's a couple of reasons here: First, note that the date next to Natalya Rizhkova's name at the bottom of the article isn't the same as the article date. So what is it? Well, if you take a look at other articles on their site, such as this one, and scroll down to the bottom, you can see that that's the credit for the images, not the credit for the writer. The author name is over on the right-hand side: "Hendrik Kelner." Or at least that's the way it reads to me.
I don't see how that supports:in support of children with cancer… a lion sculpted in Kenya drew 3000 euros. The high bid was made by William Todd Tribell, who represents Davidoff Cigars… he also donated the cigar box
After Estonia's independence from the Soviet Union, Tribell was an early supporter of the Tallinn Children's Hospital Foundation where during its infancy, he introduced the foundation to members of the corporate community who he encouraged, by example, to donate both time and money.
Given that Estonia declared their independence in 1988 and this event took place twelve years later, it doesn't make him "an early supporter", nor does donating one item to and purchasing one item at a single charity auction describe "[introducing] the foundation to members of the corporate community" or an encouragement of them to donate time. Perhaps that's all in the other Estonian article, but I don't have access to it.
I looked at the swiss database you mentioned and continued further from their link to the official register here: http://www.hrazg.ch/webservices/inet/HRG/HRG.asmx/getHRGHTML?amt=170&toBeModified=0&validOnly=0&lang=1&sort=0&chnr=CH17030364042 It says that he is a member of the board - not employee. Only the article call him a co-founder.
ok - fair enough
I have re-read the entire article. Apparently, you are partially right. He sold the business before to someone else and it "ceased to be" in some time. He re-registered the company and made a deal with some officials to re-open it in that Downtown area. According to the article he moved to that area to live as well which is what gave me the impression i mentioned: "To show support and enthusiasm for his downtown adventure, Tribell has moved into the downtown historic district". According to the article, he had a real business etc. I also found records with the local government there that support that he had a real business. The article mentioned the business was subcontracted by a city contractor, so i am guessing that was a real business. It also mentioned he had four employees working for him, so logically if he was working with the city at arms length and he had empolyees, it had to be real.
I looked at this again, lucky for me; I am half Russian - so i can read those pages... The right hand side you refer to is a promotion for a blog. I looked at other articles and found different authors for different ones. I will leave that up to you.
Estonia was only separated from Russia in reality in 1994. https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/en.html I am not trying to indicate that he was an early supporter of Estonian independence (maybe my bad) but rather that he was actively supporting the Childrens hospital at a time that no body cared about anything other than stealing land and factories from the government. Even today, even teh rich dont care about charity in these countries unless it is convenient. I know i cant include this, but it is known that he gave money to the hospital then and worked with a member of parliament to get big companies like Coca Cola and MacDonalds involved; according to the former director there. I will try to re-write this to make more sense to you.
