Hello, I just noticed your banner on top of the Christine Leunens article and read your comment:" No, this is definitely still required – the page has a long history of obvious WP:UPE, ands needs to be cleaned up/rewritten".
Could you please provide some background information on the following:
1) why are you assuming that I am being paid to edit this page, when I am not?
2) all information I have provided is supported by evidence available for anyone to see on the internet - none of it is hearsay or opinion or commissioned - please point out the information that have led you to make this statement.
3) Christine Leunens is a public figure - if you type her name on the internet, you'll see that there's plenty of news about her.
4) what do you mean with "article needs to be cleaned up, re-written" - please advise. Just naming and shaming isn't helpful.
I am more than happy to follow your guidance, if you're willing to give some. Again, I'm not being paid, not employed either, so not sure where you're coming from but I'm willing to do what needs to be done to get the banner removed.
Thank you JRfougnazal ( talk) 21:09, 2 January 2023 (UTC)

Hey mate, you said "this is a list of breeds, not cross-breeds with silly made-up names", but Brangus is a portmanteau hybrid of Brahman and Angus. I am not sure how Wangus is different, being a portmanteau hybrid of Wagyu and Angus. Thanks in advance for clearing this up! Enix150 ( talk) 22:21, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
Hi, there was some more discussion on the Talk page for the Schloss Fuschl about our disagreement. I would be grateful if you would review the comments. One is by a friend of mine, but I asked him to reply with his honest opinion, even if he felt I was wrong. The other is from a stranger I contacted, whose name I frequently see on pages I also edit. There have been no comments by any other people, that's why I asked them to weigh in. I was also asked to notify you here that I'd like to open an official Wikipedia "Dispute Resolution," so we can get this resolved. It cannot be opened until I inform you here.

I did not want to debate the problems where with the initial entry for Triennale di Milano. My proposal is to split the topic into two entries: one reflecting the building ( Palazzo dell'Arte, which along with the nearby steel tower, is another example of fascist architecture. The second independent topic is the "Triennial" itself. It is a design exhibit held every recurrently. Its offices are in that Palazzo dell'Arte. That palazzo now has a "permanent" exhibit on prior Triennials. I should be able to find enough reliable information on those two topics, also the latter should headline a category that captures the dozen or so entries about different Triennali. I will try to leave message for those discussing in talk page.

Hi, yes I agree that it may not stick, but I personally think the article should be honest. Let's see. I personally think it is confusing and problematic if the infobox states it originated in Ireland but the lead says it was bred in England. How 'Irish' the breed is is debateable...
One question though: Do you think infobox should say 'England' or 'United Kingdom' or 'British Isles'? Fitzkarl ( talk) 20:21, 9 February 2023 (UTC)

Hi Justlettersandnumbers, I have written and edited this draft about a New York artist, "David Gonzalez" who is a bit difficult to classify (musician, poet, actor, teacher ....?) I have found references from independent sources of great relevance such as the New York Times, Washington Post and other news. I have seen that you are on the AfC participant list, and you have specialized in music. I ask you the great favor if you can review this article, thank you very much.

Wow! That was fast! I received a notification last night, while traveling, that my draft Notenik article had been tagged for speedy deletion and then, as soon as I had time to sit down and contest it, it was already gone! And this is a draft that had been in work for about two years, and reflected and incorporated improvements made over that period in response to previous objections -- none of which had suggested that the piece was pure spam. Could I please somehow retrieve the latest copy? Also, some explanation of why it is being classified as spam would be appreciated. A previous reviewer had noted that the piece was being drafted by the developer, and not a neutral third party, but stated that this was not against Wikipedia's rules. Since I began work on this article, its subject (the app) has been garnering additional positive attention and reviews from neutral third parties, and I have been dutifully adding these citations to the draft as they appeared. As I pointed out on another Wikipedia page, where I was asking for advice, the text that sounded like advertising was in a section clearly titled "Reception," where I was trying to summarize, with citations, how various neutral third parties had been responding to the app. Should I remove the section titled "Reception" for some reason? If so, could you state the reason? If other parts of the article are not written from a neutral point of view, then could you please point out which of those words are problematic? I am a hard-working independent developer who has developed an open-source app that a lot of other people have found useful, and have gone on the record stating this. Wikipedia has articles on other Mac software, and other note-taking apps, so while I am happy to rework the article in as many ways as I can to meet Wikipedia's guidelines, I am a bit mystified as to why you have seen fit to summarily delete the entire draft. Hhbowie ( talk) 09:28, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
Dear Justlettersandnumbers, I have already placed the "Connected contributor" template at the top of the "IESE Business School" article discussion. I have also carefully read the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest page.
I see that I should propose the text after the "request edit" template and if there is conflict in the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard.
Please tell me if this is correct or should I do something else.
From now on I will request the edits in IESE BS Talk.
With all due respect, is it now possible to remove the "undisclosed paid" template from the main IESE BS article?
Thank you very much for your help, between all of us we make a better and more professional wikipedia.

I am curious about what you found advertorial about the inertial labs article? Quite a few editors have been working on the page in the short time between when it was published and when you returned it to draft. If you read the notes, I was trying to get exactly that type of help so I am curious why you drafted it when everyone seems to agree it was notable and the one editor took nearly 10k characters out of the article since it was tagged advertorial. This company produces tech that deal with military tech, UAV's, Space, Marine, autonomous vehicles and automation. Virtually anything that uses GPS location . They would meet the scientific criteria for publication.. Before you drafted it I was checking for adjectives and I was thinking of removing the advertorial tag. If you could give me some insight to your actions I would appreciate it so I know how to proceed. UCLAPhdCandidate ( talk) 09:06, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello Justlettersandnumbers, hope you are well. Came across some instances of Lierna being referenced in unexpected places. (See Wikidata for Livio, Achille, and Pier Giacomo Castiglioni – the poor follows ought be left in peace, alas.) Not sure if this data is collected by some automated process or manually entered, but some of it seems dubious. Though this might be aligned with your interests. Cheers, Cl3phact0 ( talk) 07:25, 16 April 2023 (UTC) PS: PS: I accidently left this note in your archive. I'll go tidy that up now. Sorry.

Hello again, Justlettersandnumbers. Expanding on the conversation above, re: Wikidata side of the Wiki-verse, I've been using a tool called Reasonator, which has been extraordinarily useful for filling-in blanks and missing nuance in some of the WP articles I've been trying to improve. It's an excellent way to make connections between the subjects one is working on and tie details together in an efficient manner. I've found some fascinating details hidden in plain sight (especially in Commons). (Try a search for: " Lierna" – you might find some other odds and sods that aren't where they are meant to be in the 243 items it turns-up.) Seems like a tool that can be put to good use in myriad ways. Cheers, Cl3phact0 ( talk) 05:45, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
Hi. Yeah, this was a tough one. I went through 9 pages of sources, and it appears that each section was simply cut and paste from off-wiki sources. But I didn't check the whole page, actually I couldn't, since the earwig report wouldn't give me any more hits. Thanks for making that change. Onel5969 TT me 20:46, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

30 is unsupported, but I was talking about Lorenzo's handling of the situation. This was sourced (or intended to be sourced) to The Rough Guide History of Italy which says, "...Lorenzo breaks free [from the attackers] and rallies his supporters. A furious mob dispenses summary justice to the conspirators and their troops." That, in my view, makes it quite clear Lorenzo was encouraging the lynchings, which is what I changed from "Although Lorenzo appealed to the crowd not to exact summary justice..." I presume the "rather poor" source is trecanni.it? Heavy Water ( talk) 15:31, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
Hello, Justlettersandnumbers,
Sorry about this article, I didn't notice that it had already been tagged for speedy deletion and that you had untagged it. If I had noticed, I wouldn't have tagged it again. I also tagged Diego Perez Obregon which was deleted. The article creator was very upset at the deletion tagging. Hopefully they will respond to your findings at the AFD and we can see if there are sources to verify the person's notability. Liz Read! Talk! 19:22, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
You seem to have confused redirect page age with target page age [3].

Could I get insight on the deletion of Wikipedia:Red Sea Brine Pool Microbiology? This page was created by several students that have gone through the Wikipedia training modules, reviewed by two other groups of students that completed the training modules and two Wiki_Ed instructors; the page was deemed to be acceptable, well resourced and a valuable contribution to Wikipedia. I have been a Wiki_ed instructor since 2017 and students in my courses have created at least 20 Wikipedia pages, and edited countless others. The contributions are always evaluated by peers and instructors. Consequently, I was surprised to see a page deleted without explanation. The Red-Sea brine pools are probably the most extreme environment in which life has been found, and of course the life is entirely microbial. The comment "Obviously created in error" seems particularly inappropriate given the obvious effort in creating it. If my understanding of what constitutes a valid Wikipedia contribution is so badly skewed, that a page that I think is a valuable contribution is deemed unacceptable by an administrator, then I need to understand the rationale so I can better guide students in the future.

Hi Justlettersandnumbers. You recently deleted Draft:Rahul choudhary, and now you're the lucky (or unlucky?) recipient of my enquiry regarding suspicions about this editor.
If you look at the userpage of Abdulmozidofficial4, you will notice that it's an identical copy of User:Mustafejrumon/sandbox. That editor, plus others, were already the subject of a SPI case, Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Elfin rules/Archive, from Jan-Feb of 2020. You yourself commented on the case on 15 February 2020. I find it hard to believe that this newest account copying the obscure sandbox of another user, already under scrutiny in the past, is just coincidence. -- Drm310 🍁 ( talk) 14:15, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

It would help me to see what I did there, because I have forgotten how I had it organized, it was more than copy paste, it was organizational, and also changes to the original text, and some new text.

User:Onel5969: I'm in the process of expanding it with better sources! Onel5969, I think you know that, because you are a regular on User talk:Justlettersandnumbers talk page where this article is being discussed. The timing of this AfD, a mere hours after I requested an old copyvio copy for reworking, is quite the coincidence. Are you that anxious to delete the article you can't give me a little time to work on it before nominating for deletion? Now the article in its current form will attract deletion votes, and I don't have time to work to improve it. Sigh. -- Green C 14:25, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
Good morning, @ Justlettersandnumbers. Just wanted to reach out to ask that you please restore/undelete Draft:Isaac Gang. While I understand the concerns raised, the action is inconsistent with the last reviewer's comments. When I was a newbie in this space, I made the mistake of submitting the article myself, but I realized it wasn't encouraged if allowed at all so, I transfer the task to a third party that is currently on verge of radically changing the original contents for resubmission based on last reviewer's recommendation. The deletion cannot come at the wrong time, and I hope that it is reversed. Please let me know if you need additional details. IsaacGang ( talk) 15:33, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Greetings, I would kindly like to discuss why the article HeavenMayFade was deleted. The reason given was "' A7: Article about a band, singer, musician, or musical ensemble, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject."
The page about A7 says:
"When assessing an article for such a claim (the first way described above), you should search for a statement within the article that attributes noteworthiness to the subject... The existence of such a statement of noteworthiness/importance/significance within the article would generally ensure that the A7, A9 and A11 tags cannot be applied. Such a claim of noteworthiness need not be supported by any reference; the fact that such a claim exists and has been made deems that the A7, A9 and A11 tags cannot be applied."
I stated the noteworthiness of HeavenMayFade in the "Impact" section of the article, which, according to the above, should mean A7 generally should not have been applied. Right? I described my reasoning in the talk page too which was also deleted without comment.
Please help me understand what was wrong with how I claimed noteworthiness for HeavenMayFade? Can I do anything differently? Thank you.

Hello,
Justlettersandnumbers. You performed a
recent revert to the
Dairy cattle article. The problem is that we are both citing
WP:MOSSIS. Sister project templates that produce a box—specifically
Template:Commons category, are not appropriate for § References with list sufficiently long to produce multiple columns (thus resulting in undesirable white space on the right). There is nothing in WP:MOSSIS that says § External links should not be populated if the only entry is the inline variant,
Template:Commons category-inline; it only discourages the box variant. "Do not make a section whose sole content is box-type templates.
" My edit using the inline-type is not invalid according to WP:MOSSIS. Let's work together on this; we could place the inline variant in the last section below the references without creating a § External links. —

Hi Justlettersandnumbers, I'll be the first to admit I'm not a copyvio expert, but I was under the impression that if the earliest revision of an article had considerable copyvio issues (which was true here), outright deletion was preferable to revision deletion. As it happens I came upon the page from CAT:RD1, and didn't find revisions I could preserve: hence the tag. Do you believe the tag is not appropriate in such circumstances? Or was this an exception because some rewrites happened after the tag was placed? Best, Vanamonde ( Talk) 20:31, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
I'm the admin who removed the speedy delete tag on the Area Scatter article. My analysis of the alleged copyright violation claim showed that this isn't a copyright issue. For the most part the article uses facts attributed to the cited sources, which isn't a copyright issue. While there are a few phrases used in the article that also exist within the original sources, a minor rewrite and use of quoted material can fix this. Am I missing something else? Look forward to your feedback.-- SouthernNights ( talk) 11:17, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Justlettersandnumbers,
I'm not going to undo your block but this editor disclosed multiple times, in edit summaries and on the User talk page, that they had a COI and worked at UCLA where the article subject is employed. So, I don't think that there was any attempt to hide a relationship they had with the article subject that they were writing about. There was clearly some misunderstanding about our guidelines on copyright violation but they did disclose the nature of their position and what they were trying to do. Liz Read!

@ Justlettersandnumbers:, hello, this is the author account of a page that I requested a speedy deletion by author for: Arachno Creek. Would it be possible to preserve or retain the talk page for this article for the purposes of transparency? To my understanding, the US Board on Geographic Names is still looking into sources of the name for possible recognition. It’s possible the only source is myself and a former co-editor of this account and I want to ensure that no information is away from their access if it turns out the Wikipedia article is the only source of the name. Thanks! - Navarre0107 ( talk) 18:58, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for your recent edits on Secret Cinema. That's one of the Brice Stratford sockfarm articles. So is Fabien Riggall (the founder), and the same recent person is IP-hopping and doing the same sort of weird stuff on that article. Could you put that article on your watchlist as well? They are edit-warring to keep their material in.
BTW, due to the resignation of CorbieVreccan (following the recent RFAR), we no longer have her to help with the sockfarm. It's just you, me, and Girth Summit. Softlavender ( talk) 04:54, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
My sense right now is that following the mass blockings and gutting of his personal wiki article post-SPI, the sockmaster knows that we are clearly onto his BS and his schemes, and has largely stopped the nonsense. Like you, I myself do not have the time right now to do a large-scale cleanup or LTA report of the other affected articles.
Anyway, to answer your question, Brice Stratford (sockmaster) was professionally involved with Secret Cinema, and (with a largely separate collection of socks) created a separate walled garden of articles which includes: Secret Cinema, Fabien Riggall, Future Cinema, Future Shorts. (This walled garden may actually be UPE.) Here are some on-wiki (usertalk and COIN) communications about this walled garden and the Brice Straford connection that were noted in 2015: [4], [5] (Secret Cinema mentioned), [6] (Secret Cinema mentioned several times).
All of that said, the IP that you blocked just now was engaging in serial vandalism rather than promotionalism, so it was a different issue. Softlavender ( talk) 02:30, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Hello Justlettersandnumbers:
WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long
Backlog Drive!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 2 months outstanding reviews from the current 4+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 November 2023 through 30 November 2023.
You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.
Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.

The article Unit One (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
This disambiguation page contains the primary topic and one other topic for the ambiguous title and no other topics can be found within a reasonable time.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Hi @ Justlettersandnumbers, The move to draft by @ Caseeart is highly impropriate as their justification are misleading. The justification they give is "WP:BLP WP:ATTACK. Deleted multiple times. No explanation why restored." The deletion history shows that it was undeleted by an @ Liz on 26 June 2023, this can only have occurred as a result of a undeletion request yes? The second justification given by Caseeart is WP:ATTACK, per that article "An attack page is a page, in any namespace, that exists primarily to disparage or threaten its subject; or biographical material that is entirely negative in tone and unsourced or poorly sourced" (my empathise). Clearly the article as it exists in its current state is well sourced having 16 citations to WP:RS. I've stated to Caseart on their talk page that if they thinks it was recreated inappropriately he should take it to AFD, which they ignored. TarnishedPath talk 10:27, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I just noticed your banner on top of the Christine Leunens article and read your comment:" No, this is definitely still required – the page has a long history of obvious WP:UPE, ands needs to be cleaned up/rewritten".
Could you please provide some background information on the following:
1) why are you assuming that I am being paid to edit this page, when I am not?
2) all information I have provided is supported by evidence available for anyone to see on the internet - none of it is hearsay or opinion or commissioned - please point out the information that have led you to make this statement.
3) Christine Leunens is a public figure - if you type her name on the internet, you'll see that there's plenty of news about her.
4) what do you mean with "article needs to be cleaned up, re-written" - please advise. Just naming and shaming isn't helpful.
I am more than happy to follow your guidance, if you're willing to give some. Again, I'm not being paid, not employed either, so not sure where you're coming from but I'm willing to do what needs to be done to get the banner removed.

I did not want to debate the problems where with the initial entry for Triennale di Milano. My proposal is to split the topic into two entries: one reflecting the building ( Palazzo dell'Arte, which along with the nearby steel tower, is another example of fascist architecture. The second independent topic is the "Triennial" itself. It is a design exhibit held every recurrently. Its offices are in that Palazzo dell'Arte. That palazzo now has a "permanent" exhibit on prior Triennials. I should be able to find enough reliable information on those two topics, also the latter should headline a category that captures the dozen or so entries about different Triennali. I will try to leave message for those discussing in talk page.

Wow! That was fast! I received a notification last night, while traveling, that my draft Notenik article had been tagged for speedy deletion and then, as soon as I had time to sit down and contest it, it was already gone! And this is a draft that had been in work for about two years, and reflected and incorporated improvements made over that period in response to previous objections -- none of which had suggested that the piece was pure spam. Could I please somehow retrieve the latest copy? Also, some explanation of why it is being classified as spam would be appreciated. A previous reviewer had noted that the piece was being drafted by the developer, and not a neutral third party, but stated that this was not against Wikipedia's rules. Since I began work on this article, its subject (the app) has been garnering additional positive attention and reviews from neutral third parties, and I have been dutifully adding these citations to the draft as they appeared. As I pointed out on another Wikipedia page, where I was asking for advice, the text that sounded like advertising was in a section clearly titled "Reception," where I was trying to summarize, with citations, how various neutral third parties had been responding to the app. Should I remove the section titled "Reception" for some reason? If so, could you state the reason? If other parts of the article are not written from a neutral point of view, then could you please point out which of those words are problematic? I am a hard-working independent developer who has developed an open-source app that a lot of other people have found useful, and have gone on the record stating this. Wikipedia has articles on other Mac software, and other note-taking apps, so while I am happy to rework the article in as many ways as I can to meet Wikipedia's guidelines, I am a bit mystified as to why you have seen fit to summarily delete the entire draft.

Dear Justlettersandnumbers, I have already placed the "Connected contributor" template at the top of the "IESE Business School" article discussion. I have also carefully read the Wikipedia:Conflict of interest page.

Please tell me if this is correct or should I do something else.

Quite a few editors have been working on the page in the short time between when it was published and when you returned it to draft. If you read the notes, I was trying to get exactly that type of help so I am curious why you drafted it when everyone seems to agree it was notable and the one editor took nearly 10k characters out of the article since it was tagged advertorial. This company produces tech that deal with military tech, UAV's, Space, Marine, autonomous vehicles and automation. Virtually anything that uses GPS location .

Hello again, Justlettersandnumbers. Expanding on the conversation above, re: Wikidata side of the Wiki-verse, I've been using a tool called Reasonator, which has been extraordinarily useful for filling-in blanks and missing nuance in some of the WP articles I've been trying to improve. It's an excellent way to make connections between the subjects one is working on and tie details together in an efficient manner. I've found some fascinating details hidden in plain sight (especially in Commons). (Try a search for: " Lierna" – you might find some other odds and sods that aren't where they are meant to be in the 243 items it turns-up.) Seems like a tool that can be put to good use in myriad ways. Cheers, Cl3phact0 ( talk) 05:45, 17 April 2023 (UTC)

30 is unsupported, but I was talking about Lorenzo's handling of the situation.

A furious mob dispenses summary justice to the conspirators and their troops."

Sorry about this article, I didn't notice that it had already been tagged for speedy deletion and that you had untagged it. If I had noticed, I wouldn't have tagged it again. I also tagged Diego Perez Obregon which was deleted. The article creator was very upset at the deletion tagging. Hopefully they will respond to your findings at the AFD and we can see if there are sources to verify the person's notability. Liz Read! Talk! 19:22, 27 April 2023 (UTC)
You seem to have confused redirect page age with target page age [3]. Vir-Nirvan Samvat, whose speedy deletion I requested, was created less than 24 hours ago through an undiscussed move of Vira Nirvana Samvat by a now-blocked user, which has now been reverted. I've now requested CSD again. Cheers, — kashmīrī TALK 13:12, 30 April 2023 (UTC)
Could I get insight on the deletion of Wikipedia:Red Sea Brine Pool Microbiology? This page was created by several students that have gone through the Wikipedia training modules, reviewed by two other groups of students that completed the training modules and two Wiki_Ed instructors; the page was deemed to be acceptable, well resourced and a valuable contribution to Wikipedia. I have been a Wiki_ed instructor since 2017 and students in my courses have created at least 20 Wikipedia pages, and edited countless others. The contributions are always evaluated by peers and instructors. Consequently, I was surprised to see a page deleted without explanation. The Red-Sea brine pools are probably the most extreme environment in which life has been found, and of course the life is entirely microbial. The comment "Obviously created in error" seems particularly inappropriate given the obvious effort in creating it. If my understanding of what constitutes a valid Wikipedia contribution is so badly skewed, that a page that I think is a valuable contribution is deemed unacceptable by an administrator, then I need to understand the rationale so I can better guide students in the future.

Wow! That was fast! I received a notification that my draft Boaz Raviv article had been deleted and then, as soon as I had time to sit down i discovered, it was already gone! And i had no backup. This is a draft that i have been in work for about 5 weeks, and reflected improvements made over that period in response comments and advise i got from the mentors.

Hi Justlettersandnumbers. You recently deleted Draft:Rahul choudhary, and now you're the lucky (or unlucky?) recipient of my enquiry regarding suspicions about this editor.
If you look at the userpage of Abdulmozidofficial4, you will notice that it's an identical copy of User:Mustafejrumon/sandbox. That editor, plus others, were already the subject of a SPI case, Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Elfin rules/Archive, from Jan-Feb of 2020. You yourself commented on the case on 15 February 2020. I find it hard to believe that this newest account copying the obscure sandbox of another user, already under scrutiny in the past, is just coincidence. -- Drm310 🍁 ( talk) 14:15, 5 May 2023 (UTC)

User:Onel5969: I'm in the process of expanding it with better sources! Onel5969, I think you know that, because you are a regular on User talk:Justlettersandnumbers talk page where this article is being discussed. The timing of this AfD, a mere hours after I requested an old copyvio copy for reworking, is quite the coincidence. Are you that anxious to delete the article you can't give me a little time to work on it before nominating for deletion? Now the article in its current form will attract deletion votes, and I don't have time to work to improve it. Sigh. -- Green C 14:25, 14 May 2023 (UTC)
Good morning, @ Justlettersandnumbers. Just wanted to reach out to ask that you please restore/undelete Draft:Isaac Gang. While I understand the concerns raised, the action is inconsistent with the last reviewer's comments. When I was a newbie in this space, I made the mistake of submitting the article myself, but I realized it wasn't encouraged if allowed at all so, I transfer the task to a third party that is currently on verge of radically changing the original contents for resubmission based on last reviewer's recommendation. The deletion cannot come at the wrong time, and I hope that it is reversed. Please let me know if you need additional details. IsaacGang ( talk) 15:33, 15 May 2023 (UTC)

Greetings, I would kindly like to discuss why the article HeavenMayFade was deleted. The reason given was "' A7: Article about a band, singer, musician, or musical ensemble, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject."
The page about A7 says:
"When assessing an article for such a claim (the first way described above), you should search for a statement within the article that attributes noteworthiness to the subject... The existence of such a statement of noteworthiness/importance/significance within the article would generally ensure that the A7, A9 and A11 tags cannot be applied. Such a claim of noteworthiness need not be supported by any reference; the fact that such a claim exists and has been made deems that the A7, A9 and A11 tags cannot be applied."
I stated the noteworthiness of HeavenMayFade in the "Impact" section of the article, which, according to the above, should mean A7 generally should not have been applied. Right? I described my reasoning in the talk page too which was also deleted without comment.
Please help me understand what was wrong with how I claimed noteworthiness for HeavenMayFade? Can I do anything differently? Thank you.

Hello,

recent revert to the
Dairy cattle article. The problem is that we are both citing
WP:MOSSIS. Sister project templates that produce a box—specifically
Template:Commons category, are not appropriate for § References with list sufficiently long to produce multiple columns (thus resulting in undesirable white space on the right). There is nothing in WP:MOSSIS that says § External links should not be populated if the only entry is the inline variant,
Template:Commons category-inline; it only discourages the box variant. "Do not make a section whose sole content is box-type templates.
" My edit using the inline-type is not invalid according to WP:MOSSIS. Let's work together on this; we could place the inline variant in the last section below the references without creating a § External links. —

Hi Justlettersandnumbers, I'll be the first to admit I'm not a copyvio expert, but I was under the impression that if the earliest revision of an article had considerable copyvio issues (which was true here), outright deletion was preferable to revision deletion. As it happens I came upon the page from CAT:RD1, and didn't find revisions I could preserve: hence the tag. Do you believe the tag is not appropriate in such circumstances? Or was this an exception because some rewrites happened after the tag was placed? Best, Vanamonde ( Talk) 20:31, 17 August 2023 (UTC)
I'm the admin who removed the speedy delete tag on the Area Scatter article. My analysis of the alleged copyright violation claim showed that this isn't a copyright issue. For the most part the article uses facts attributed to the cited sources, which isn't a copyright issue. While there are a few phrases used in the article that also exist within the original sources, a minor rewrite and use of quoted material can fix this. Am I missing something else? Look forward to your feedback.-- SouthernNights ( talk) 11:17, 25 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello, Justlettersandnumbers,
I'm not going to undo your block but this editor disclosed multiple times, in edit summaries and on the User talk page, that they had a COI and worked at UCLA where the article subject is employed. So, I don't think that there was any attempt to hide a relationship they had with the article subject that they were writing about. There was clearly some misunderstanding about our guidelines on copyright violation but they did disclose the nature of their position and what they were trying to do. Liz Read!

@ Justlettersandnumbers:, hello, this is the author account of a page that I requested a speedy deletion by author for: Arachno Creek. Would it be possible to preserve or retain the talk page for this article for the purposes of transparency? To my understanding, the US Board on Geographic Names is still looking into sources of the name for possible recognition. It’s possible the only source is myself and a former co-editor of this account and I want to ensure that no information is away from their access if it turns out the Wikipedia article is the only source of the name.

Thanks for your recent edits on Secret Cinema. That's one of the Brice Stratford sockfarm articles.

My sense right now is that following the mass blockings and gutting of his personal wiki article post-SPI, the sockmaster knows that we are clearly onto his BS and his schemes, and has largely stopped the nonsense. Like you, I myself do not have the time right now to do a large-scale cleanup or LTA report of the other affected articles.
Anyway, to answer your question, Brice Stratford (sockmaster) was professionally involved with Secret Cinema, and (with a largely separate collection of socks) created a separate walled garden of articles which includes: Secret Cinema, Fabien Riggall, Future Cinema, Future Shorts. (This walled garden may actually be UPE.) Here are some on-wiki (usertalk and COIN) communications about this walled garden and the Brice Straford connection that were noted in 2015: [4], [5] (Secret Cinema mentioned), [6] (Secret Cinema mentioned several times).
All of that said, the IP that you blocked just now was engaging in serial vandalism rather than promotionalism, so it was a different issue. Softlavender ( talk) 02:30, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi @ Justlettersandnumbers, The move to draft by @ Caseeart is highly impropriate as their justification are misleading. The justification they give is "WP:BLP WP:ATTACK. Deleted multiple times. No explanation why restored." The deletion history shows that it was undeleted by an @ Liz on 26 June 2023, this can only have occurred as a result of a undeletion request yes? The second justification given by Caseeart is WP:ATTACK, per that article "An attack page is a page, in any namespace, that exists primarily to disparage or threaten its subject; or biographical material that is entirely negative in tone and unsourced or poorly sourced" (my empathise). Clearly the article as it exists in its current state is well sourced having 16 citations to WP:RS. I've stated to Caseart on their talk page that if they thinks it was recreated inappropriately he should take it to AFD, which they ignored. TarnishedPath talk 10:27, 21 December 2023 (UTC)
