Thank you for pointing out that Robert Charles Kettler was a copyright violation. I have completely rewritten the article (and improved/expanded/sourced it while I was at it.) Its pretty much a formality at this point, but would you mind going back and striking your !vote to delete as copyvio? Thanks, ThaddeusB ( talk) 16:37, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
This AFD was closed as keep shortly after this comment, so I didn't get a chance to modify my !vote. Note that Kettler US still has many of the same issues, though. Dori ❦ ( Talk ❖ Contribs ❖ Review) ❦ 21:12, 29 July 2009 (UTC)
I know it was a hasty revert, but people see the mis-styled titles and "learn" it and it spreads like wildfire. I wanted to retain your edits but I didn't have the time or energy to go through it word by word fixing the episodes whilst the serials and novels.

Dear Dori Smith, I would like to ask you for an advice, where in the article MPEG-4 should I add informations from article ISO Base media file format (MPEG-4 Part 12) which I requested for creation. The article MPEG-4 is only a junction for Parts of MPEG-4 specification and there is no space for detailed informations about particular formats based on the ISO base media file format, about history of this format in MPEG and about any individual extension over this format defined by other organization - such as 3GPP, 3GPP2, Apple, ITU-T, ETSI, SMPTE and others. As you can see, there are separate articles about MPEG-4 Part 2, MPEG-4 Part 3, MPEG-4 Part 10, MPEG-4 Part 17. I don't understand, why MPEG-4 Part 12 shouldn't be also separate article and why didn't anyone create it till now. In past months I added gross informations about ISO base media file format to articles 3GP, MPEG-4, JPEG 2000, MP4, G.719, Dirac and others. I was motivated because there was usually no mention about ISO base media file format in that articles and there is no separate article about ISO base media file format. So I has to put any piece of information to separate article. There is no article yet, to which anyone can refer, when there is a talk about MPEG-4 Part 12 - ISO base media file format. I would like to expand this article in next months (and I hope, other people will help), but that will need many days of free time. -- 89.173.68.106 ( talk) 05:20, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Dori, I just noticed that this article had been deleted as a copyright violation, & it appears that you were the one who determined that. (Or it was Uninvited Co.? I'm not entirely clear on exactly how it was deleted.) However, AFAIK earlier versions were not violations -- the article was the product of numerous edits from different people -- which is why I restored it from an earlier version. Or was one of these earlier edits also a copyvio? I know there has to be a revision somewhere in its history which does not infringe on copyright & would like to take it back to that version & work from there, rather than lose the article entirely. -- llywrch ( talk) 16:34, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Since you participated in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bullshido.net (3rd nomination), which was closed as "no consensus", you may be interested in a subsequent DRV. Since I disagreed with the close, I contacted the closing admin, who responded, " To be honest, Cunard, I would tend to agree with you, but I am not sure if the balance of things heads to delete rather than no consensus.

I found some more refs and removed the prod. I don't think the problem is OR--its just whether it's notable enough under our BLP rules. Technically it meets them--multiple 3rd party sources, multiple events. If you want to send it to AfD, it might not be unreasonable to see what others think, as we are likely to have more of this sort of article. DGG ( talk ) 16:42, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi Dori,
I have just reverted the changes to the ' A Guide to the Business Analysis Body of Knowledge' article - please see reasoning below.
In a nutshell: Business Analysis is the practice of understanding what business problems or needs are to be met by a business change of some kind: software development, business process improvement, or organisation change -- and typically a combination of all three.
This article was about the Body of Knowledge for the business analysis discipline, as defined by the appropriate professional body, the International Institute of Business Analysis. There are plenty of other examples like this, appropriate to their own industries, which can be seen listed in the Body of Knowledge article. Each of these are arguably self-published, and full of jargon peculiar to the relevant industry, but this does not make them unworthy of an article on Wikipedia. Three examples in the same field of work, are:
Please note: when I originally created this article, it had the title 'Business Analysis Body of Knowledge', as this is how the work is normally known -- but another editor correctly pointed out that as this referred to a publication it should use the correct title.
Searching for this using it's normal title of just 'Business Analysis Body of Knowledge' finds:
So, please, if you find some of the references questionable, by all means tag them and offer guidance/explanation to editors less experienced than you.
Greyskinnedboy Talk 04:30, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
The article on International Institute of Business Analysis definitely needs tidying up, which work I presume can be safely modelled on the article for associated organisation Project Management Institute? (That is a question, and I welcome comparison and feedback to reach an article that we can all be happy with). Greyskinnedboy Talk 04:11, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the notification, but the AfD discussion was closed before I was able to participate. Having reviewed the article and the sources, I agree that this individual fails the spirit of Wikipedia's inclusion guidelines, so the article should be deleted. Because the article has been closed as "no consensus", I recommend that you renominate it in a month and notify all the participants of the first AfD, the second AfD, and the DRV on the day that you nominate the article for deletion. Cheers, Cunard ( talk) 20:08, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi there, just wondering why you removed the reference about Dr. Sommer having saved approximately 6 million lives. The reference to the book was to serve as a source of the "6 million" figure, not an intention to "spam." If a reliable figure, the "6 million" remark should be included as it helps to illustrate the man's notability.
Why is the cited book "spam" or otherwise unacceptable, and what would you suggest as an alternate, appropriate source? Do you think it would be possible to re-include that reference, or a similar one, if it was worded differently?
Thanks. DeathQuaker ( talk) 14:06, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Dori ❦ ( Talk ❖ Contribs ❖ Review) ❦ 20:03, 5 November 2009 (UTC)Earlier this year, User:April.eye created an account and immediately started spamming WP with articles about, links to, and mentions of Scientists greater than einstein and Scienceheroes.com. All articles and files created by this SPA have since been deleted by a number of admins (see here, here, and here), so now I'm going through and deleting all the book references added by this editor.
The book's claims may or may not be legit; the article on the book (prior to its deletion) mentioned how the numbers were calculated in a vague fashion, but was clear that they definitely did not go through any type of peer review process. As such, and given the non-notability of the book itself as well as the nature of the edits, I figured it was better to just delete the reference. If you find a similar number from a different book (one that's more reliable), add away!
Nice copyedit job. I'll try to work more on it. Bearian ( talk)
Hi Dori, Thanks for giving my page the once over, As you can probably see I am very new to these pages, All that I have added is true, My artists statement for example is standard, and used by me on the blog sections of various artist community pages to which I contribute. The quotes from other people were made by them for me to use wherever I want, all of the other stuff has been written by me and used on the same blog spots. I cannot see where a copy right infringment would arise, However I want to keep my WIKI page, and I dont want to break any rules,If you have a moment I would appreciate your advice.

Hello, few days ago I was monitoring Commons user Parenti93 uploads of images that were violating copyrights.

Each of these are arguably self-published, and full of jargon peculiar to the relevant industry, but this does not make them unworthy of an article on Wikipedia. Three examples in the same field of work, are:
Please note: when I originally created this article, it had the title 'Business Analysis Body of Knowledge', as this is how the work is normally known -- but another editor correctly pointed out that as this referred to a publication it should use the correct title.
Searching for this using it's normal title of just 'Business Analysis Body of Knowledge' finds:
So, please, if you find some of the references questionable, by all means tag them and offer guidance/explanation to editors less experienced than you.

The article on International Institute of Business Analysis definitely needs tidying up, which work I presume can be safely modelled on the article for associated organisation Project Management Institute? (That is a question, and I welcome comparison and feedback to reach an article that we can all be happy with). Greyskinnedboy Talk 04:11, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the notification, but the AfD discussion was closed before I was able to participate. Having reviewed the article and the sources, I agree that this individual fails the spirit of Wikipedia's inclusion guidelines, so the article should be deleted. Because the article has been closed as "no consensus", I recommend that you renominate it in a month and notify all the participants of the first AfD, the second AfD, and the DRV on the day that you nominate the article for deletion.

Since it has been well over 30 days since you requested to be reviewed, I've gone ahead and archived your request as part of my effort to cleanup Editor Review. You may view your review here. Thanks & happy editing. If you have any questions, please message me on my talk page. =D Netalarm talk 23:32, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
I share the notability concerns, but... why did you drop the urls? "bad" doesn't quite explain, and if dead then wp:dead links would apply.- Sinneed 12:58, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
This is a notice to all who participated in the recent AfD of Human suit, here, that resulted in a consensus for delete. This article has been recreated as "Human disguise", and has been nominated for deletion: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Human disguise. Thank you. Verbal chat 21:04, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
Hello there, I thought I would draw your attention to this article as you were involved in discussions about its notability: Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/A_Guide_to_the_Project_Management_Body_of_Knowledge It has been nominated for deletion, feel free to comment on the relevant project page. Happy editing, -- Taelus ( talk) 15:22, 30 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi there, just wondering why you removed the reference about Dr. Sommer having saved approximately 6 million lives. The reference to the book was to serve as a source of the "6 million" figure, not an intention to "spam." If a reliable figure, the "6 million" remark should be included as it helps to illustrate the man's notability.
Why is the cited book "spam" or otherwise unacceptable, and what would you suggest as an alternate, appropriate source? Do you think it would be possible to re-include that reference, or a similar one, if it was worded differently?
Thanks. DeathQuaker ( talk) 14:06, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Dori ❦ ( Talk ❖ Contribs ❖ Review) ❦ 20:03, 5 November 2009 (UTC)Earlier this year, User:April.eye created an account and immediately started spamming WP with articles about, links to, and mentions of Scientists greater than einstein and Scienceheroes.com. All articles and files created by this SPA have since been deleted by a number of admins (see here, here, and here), so now I'm going through and deleting all the book references added by this editor.
The book's claims may or may not be legit; the article on the book (prior to its deletion) mentioned how the numbers were calculated in a vague fashion, but was clear that they definitely did not go through any type of peer review process. As such, and given the non-notability of the book itself as well as the nature of the edits, I figured it was better to just delete the reference. If you find a similar number from a different book (one that's more reliable), add away!
Nice copyedit job. I'll try to work more on it. Bearian ( talk)
Hi Dori, Thanks for giving my page the once over, As you can probably see I am very new to these pages, All that I have added is true, My artists statement for example is standard, and used by me on the blog sections of various artist community pages to which I contribute. The quotes from other people were made by them for me to use wherever I want, all of the other stuff has been written by me and used on the same blog spots. I cannot see where a copy right infringment would arise, However I want to keep my WIKI page, and I dont want to break any rules,If you have a moment I would appreciate your advice. Thanks again, Christopher Stone, Nachette ( talk) 10:34, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
Hello, few days ago I was monitoring Commons user Parenti93 uploads of images that were violating copyrights. Now it comes to my attention that this user may be a sockpuppet of Commons and English wikipedia User:Simon Lindh. Also I saw your concern over this user Userpage where it seems all content is taken from Andy Roddick article, just names and references to Sweden are changed. I am not familiar with en:wiki policy and guidelines, so want to ask you to re-evaluate this user talk page and if necessary raise this issue. Thank you -- Justass ( talk) 12:46, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
You're a 4 year editor with < 6k edits, and I like your edit history from what I can see.
I don't want to be a nominator, but I think you would make an excellent administrator from everything I've seen. If it ever comes to that point please let me know. Shadowjams ( talk) 13:39, 4 December 2009 (UTC)

without saying why you thought it didn't apply.Should have being included in the AFD although the article which is basically nothing really different then those deleted was created on the 27th so less then 48 hours before the AFD was opened so likely the nominator didn't notice this one. Any US TV series list similar to those deleted should be proposed for deletion or go to WP:AFD with the closing AFD as reference. You can nominate it if you want, since being the closer for avoiding any issues I should not myself open the AFD or prodded the article (s) nor it is a speedy deletion candidate either. -- JForget 21:29, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
Hi, again please review this user page, cos it's advertisement in clear form :) Already deleted this user page on Commons -- Justass ( talk) 21:37, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
I'm not that familiar with image policies, but {{
db-nowcommons}}
states that the duplicate image must be in the same format. I don't know if the image falls under some other deletion criteria. If I'm missing something, please let me know. Thanks,
