Hello. Thank you for your message relating to my article placed on Wikipedia. I am still trying to get to grips with the whole system and how to correctly use the site. I will endeavour to reference any further article I add so that the inclusions I make are considered legitimate. Thank you again for your message and I will probably be in touch when I encounter another problem. Thanks again ( Rain391 ( talk) 14:26, 31 October 2010 (UTC)) l
Hi. Could you take a look at this so you can get an idea what is going on. I have added your talkpage to my watchlist. Might I suggest you add the Groves article to yours because the propagandizing and editorializing are nowhere near done yet. I am so tired of being outnumbered and marginalized. To have a disinterested editor with at least an open mind monitoring the page's editing would be in keeping with Wikipedia's mission to be an encyclopaedia, not a site where propagandists can work unchecked by manipulating and bullying the system. You have that discretion under WP:IAR. Just compare my edits with those of the editor who immediately gutted them. Thanks. Rms125a@hotmail.com ( talk) 14:37, 31 October 2010 (UTC)
: Hi. I am assuming you may be asleep as according to this page it is 1:56 AM right now where you live. I won't expect a response then until your convenience. I just wanted to let you know I responded to the other editor and would like to get back to editing the Groves page, but am afraid to do so now for fear of violating
WP:3RR. I know there are exceptions to 3RR (like
WP:IAR, et al) but I can't and won't risk being blocked, so when do you think I can start re-editing/fixing the Groves page?

Mack the Knife has it's own page so why not this song? It's a Left-wing song and I am merely quoting it's lyrics. I made no statement as to whether it's ideas were good or bad so I don't see I can be expressing a POV. Smokey TheCat 08:52, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung. Respectfully I disagree with your philosophy towards stubs. You may want to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia:Stub for perhaps a more balanced view. Also I found your comments condescending, particularly since I've contributed to several feature articles (most recently Tosca and L'Orfeo) and good articles at wikipedia, have been editing on here for years, and have created hundreds of articles (some recent examples of more extensive articles being Mac Morgan and Lauren Flanigan). Further, I had two refs and the article clearly meets the requirement at WP:Music and WP:Creative, so I'm not really sure why you were harping on references and notability. I, and many other editors, occassionally create basic stubs knowing full well that we won't take the article beyond that level. That is a good thing. For example on October 22 I created this stub of Marie Sasse which another editor has turned into this current version which is much improved. He had never heard of the singer until I created the stub and it inspired him to make a beautiful article. Best. 4meter4 ( talk) 12:41, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
Haha, oh, ok! I think the hint might perhaps have been a bit too subtle for that early in the morning! Actually, I might just do that, then. I'm going in to meet up with one of my old school masters later this week to have a look through their archives, so hopefully might be able to expand it a bit further later.

Please be more careful when removing references. The cite in the Shirley Love article wasn't to another wikipedia article but to a print reference. Yes, wikipedia does have an article on that print reference, but the citation was to the actual reference source and not the wiki page. Thank you. 4meter4 ( talk) 08:42, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung, I appreciate your concern about these articles and possible deficiences in referencing. If you are going to PROD them, I'd really appreciate it if you could notify WikiProject Opera on our talk page, so they don't slip under the radar and your concerns can be addressed. We don't have every single singer on our individual watchlists and unfortunately, User:ArticleAlertbot, which we had subscribed to, is no longer functioning.

Could you have a look at what happened with Mohammed El-hadhiri for me, please? I used Twinkle for sending it to AfD and watched carefully while it rolled though the process. This time it seems to have missed adding the AfD template to the article page, although it has created the AfD page and listed it on today's AfD log. Any idea what's going wrong? Ooops - just realised that you are probably asleep right now, so I'll add the article template manually for now.-- Plad2 ( talk) 19:38, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Hmm. Nominating Halimzai (politician) for AfD also using Twinkle seems to have completed all the relevant steps without problems (or at least none that I can see).

Y'know, sometimes there's a difference between sites where you can get information while you're starting an article (like IMDb) and sites that you can actually use in the article as references (like newspaper articles)...so sometimes you gotta give a guy more than five minutes to actually hunt down better sources, eh?

You said, "Generally, academics and PhD members of faculty are considered notable," concerning my speedy-delete tag of Charles Warnken. Could you please cite Wikipedia policy or precedence that supports your claim? Frankly, I think you are wrong. There are plenty of academics and/or Ph. D.'s that are not necessarily notable.

Hi Kudpung, thanks for looking at my efforts. The reams of interviews on the subject Peter Jarrette exist in American papers from the 70's and 80's which I too cannot access print on however I have read these tears sheets. Along with NYC features in Art Direction magazine (listed) and scores of interviews in Trinidad Press form the 70's 80's and 90's...the last blitz being again mid 90's. How can I cite these beyond perhaps the names of the published mag/news titles if these all appeared before the times of google and wikipedia...obviously both new formats that have yet to trawl backwards in time to include some really outstanding types from art and media worlds etc? May I just say that I detect a negative note in the responses of some of your editors as regards my efforts and those of others that seem to be slated for their subject choices that for whatever reason are not of interest to the Sci-Fi pundits and middle aged niche interest individuals who seem to be prevalent here? No offence intended....simply my own opinion as per face value and profile reading thus far. Also to suggest that I am my subjects alter ego? How does one arrive at this? The Google entries, if you care to spend time researching this chap, perhaps by archives of the magazines that you can access, are articles written and published by others on him in legit and heavily circulated, established and respected magazines. I am simply trying to write an article on a person and like you I am trying to find my way into his past works and examples but if they have not been filed online say like his illustrations for Mademoiselle Magazine in the early 80's then what would you suggest I or someone else do? Like wise citing the existence of his grandparent who I have never met and I believe even the subject has never met? So, what is Wikipedia then? Is it a special interest source for a closed society of individuals who share harsh and dismissive views of things they do not know or care to consider? I understood there was an etiquette policy in place but with the feedback I have recieved from one or two more pointed editors it seems that this may not be the case in fact. I will continue to experience this site to my aim as long as permitted and thanks again for your words. They have been very discouraging and ungenerous however. -- Eggs Aldo ( talk) 18:49, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung. I'm not really familiar with you personally, only with your contributions and the fact that you're around a lot. Have you considered an RfA recently? You seem rather sensible, have great content contributions, and seem like the kind of editor that's passing RfA with flying colors nowadays. I don't know if you have a nom in mind, but you should definitely consider it! ceran thor 01:35, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Exciral. I'm surprised you put a G11 on this. I would have thought a A7 if it needs a speedy, but it's really a classic example for a BLPPROD unless I have missed something. Anyway, it's entirely up to you :) -- Kudpung ( talk) 12:01, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi Kudpung,
Greetings from Malvern. I wondered if there was any chance that you could help us out at WP:URBLPR sourcing a number of articles on Thai footballers that we have found in the latest month? I know you live in Thailand, and I assume you speak Thai, so I thought this might be a much easier job for you than it is for the rest of us. We think there are about 18 this month (Oct 2008) that will need to be done. Very many thanks Hallucegenia ( talk) 15:37, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Hallucegenia,
There were indeed exactly 18 - I picked them out by simply recognising the Thai names, but apart from that the work, which took just over 5 hours, was not a net benefit to the encyclopedia in terms of ROI for the time spent. IMHO, the project really needs to consider focusing its priorities on the articles that have greater quantities of unsourced content, and where keeping them could clearly be an enrichment to the encyclopedia. I'm inclined to let those that are already PRODED just slip awy into oblivion and not spend time duplicating the effort of searching to save what in my opinion was the single greatest mistake Wikipedia ever made: according de facto notabiity to every Tom, Dick, and Harry who has kicked a leather ball along a 100 m field ;) Results below.

Hi Storye book. Please bear with me if you are already aware of this.

I am involved in researching certain school buildings and buildings on school sites, though.

With reference to Michael Wainer's (MIKE 13)'s possible deletion. MIKE 13 has produced 3 platinum singles, has composed/produced music for the #1 scripted show in the United States, NCIS as well as True Blood and NCIS:LA all while signed to and performing with entertainment icon LL Cool J. (as referenced by a televised performance at PetCo Pk (39, 000 ppl) in San Diego on major television network CBS. The link can be found between the article music mogul and possibly the most revered and respected man in modern music, Russell Simmons, ran on his personal website, globalgrind.com where he cites MIKE 13 as one of the most brilliant young producers in the business...Mr. Wainer is also featured on LL Cool J's personal website, boomdizzle.com as an "ALL Star" and is posted alongside the national television/in store and internet commercial campaign which MIKE 13 composed, produced and appeared in bearing both the LL Cool J trademarked logo and the SEARS trademarked logo.
Currently Mr. Wainer is composing the theme song for a newly developed CBS series and collaborating with fellow producer, Timbaland and recording artist Justin Timberlake on three new singles to be released in early 2011 in a collaborative effort btwn LL Cool J's label and Timerlake's Jive Records.
A simple email to Wainer's management Violator Mgmt, google search or comtact with Wainers Performing Licensing Society, BMI, will bear the burden of notability.
A 25 year old man, under the wing of LL Cool J with the support of Russell Simmons produces music which has sold over 3 million units worldwide, writes and produces for the # 1 show on television as well as many others and has written, produced and actually appeared in a national commercial marketing campaign side by side with retail giant SEARS and grammy award winning, emmy nominated LL Cool J....
We here at CBS records Public Relations feel that there are many less qualified who walk the halls of wiki...short of a grammy, there is virtually nothing MIKE 13 - Michael Wainer has yet to accomplish.

You tagged The Warrior Heir for deletion as a copyvio of http://www.wikibin.org/articles/the-heir-chronicles-2.html. While it was a copyvio, that website wasn't the one whose copyright was infringed upon: everything on Wikibin comes from deleted Wikipedia articles (in this case, The Heir Chronicles), which in this case was CC-by-sa licensed by dint of being created here on Wikipedia, so those whose copyright was infringed are the original authors of the Wikipedia article. Whenever you find something copied from Wikibin, you can tag the article for deletion with {{ db-repost}} (with the title of the Wikibin page as the WP article that's been reposted), for that will likely make the deleting admin's job easier and quicker. As well, that way, the deleting admin won't be likely to say "Not a copyvio, just taken from a Wikipedia mirror". Thanks for your help! Nyttend ( talk) 12:10, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
One way to add multiple red dots to the map is to use {{ location map+}} amd {{ location map~}}. For example, the wiki-markup below produces the map to the right (showing Bromsgrove, Malvern, Pershore, Redditch, Stourport-on-Severn and Worcester).
As for "correcting the ones already on it", I'm not sure what you mean: Do you mean incorrect red dots on a use somewhere, or something wrong on the background map itself? If the first, where is the problem? In that case, it may be the coordinates are incorrect?. If the second, what's wrong?

Mack the Knife has it's own page so why not this song? It's a Left-wing song and I am merely quoting it's lyrics. I made no statement as to whether it's ideas were good or bad so I don't see I can be expressing a POV. Smokey TheCat 08:52, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung. Respectfully I disagree with your philosophy towards stubs. You may want to familiarize yourself with Wikipedia:Stub for perhaps a more balanced view. Also I found your comments condescending, particularly since I've contributed to several feature articles (most recently Tosca and L'Orfeo) and good articles at wikipedia, have been editing on here for years, and have created hundreds of articles (some recent examples of more extensive articles being Mac Morgan and Lauren Flanigan). Further, I had two refs and the article clearly meets the requirement at WP:Music and WP:Creative, so I'm not really sure why you were harping on references and notability. I, and many other editors, occassionally create basic stubs knowing full well that we won't take the article beyond that level. That is a good thing. For example on October 22 I created this stub of Marie Sasse which another editor has turned into this current version which is much improved. He had never heard of the singer until I created the stub and it inspired him to make a beautiful article. Best. 4meter4 ( talk) 12:41, 1 November 2010 (UTC)
Haha, oh, ok! I think the hint might perhaps have been a bit too subtle for that early in the morning! Actually, I might just do that, then. I'm going in to meet up with one of my old school masters later this week to have a look through their archives, so hopefully might be able to expand it a bit further later.

Please be more careful when removing references. The cite in the Shirley Love article wasn't to another wikipedia article but to a print reference. Yes, wikipedia does have an article on that print reference, but the citation was to the actual reference source and not the wiki page. Thank you. 4meter4 ( talk) 08:42, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung, I appreciate your concern about these articles and possible deficiences in referencing. If you are going to PROD them, I'd really appreciate it if you could notify WikiProject Opera on our talk page, so they don't slip under the radar and your concerns can be addressed. We don't have every single singer on our individual watchlists and unfortunately, User:ArticleAlertbot, which we had subscribed to, is no longer functioning. If you'd like to discuss your concerns further with other editors who regularly work in this area and have access to specialised publications, please don't hesitate to visit the project's talk page the project's talk page.

You people got quite some nerve. So you want to discuss with me the reason why I keep a more Germanic tone to my English translations?

Could you have a look at what happened with Mohammed El-hadhiri for me, please? I used Twinkle for sending it to AfD and watched carefully while it rolled though the process. This time it seems to have missed adding the AfD template to the article page, although it has created the AfD page and listed it on today's AfD log. Any idea what's going wrong? Ooops - just realised that you are probably asleep right now, so I'll add the article template manually for now.-- Plad2 ( talk) 19:38, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Hmm. Nominating Halimzai (politician) for AfD also using Twinkle seems to have completed all the relevant steps without problems (or at least none that I can see). I have a couple more to do from the BLP Rescue Project current month (Dec 2008) so I think I will continue and see what happens.-- Plad2 ( talk) 20:07, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

A discussion has begun about whether the article Pqcell, which you created or to which you contributed, should be deleted. While contributions are welcome, an article may be deleted if it is inconsistent with Wikipedia policies and guidelines for inclusion, explained in the deletion policy.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pqcell until a consensus is reached, and you are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
You may edit the article during the discussion, including to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Phil Bridger ( talk) 21:27, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Y'know, sometimes there's a difference between sites where you can get information while you're starting an article (like IMDb) and sites that you can actually use in the article as references (like newspaper articles)...so sometimes you gotta give a guy more than five minutes to actually hunt down better sources, eh?

You said, "Generally, academics and PhD members of faculty are considered notable," concerning my speedy-delete tag of Charles Warnken. Could you please cite Wikipedia policy or precedence that supports your claim? Frankly, I think you are wrong. There are plenty of academics and/or Ph. D.'s that are not necessarily notable. Checking over WP:ACADEMIC, I do not see how Dr. Warnken meets any of the nine criteria. - Realkyhick ( Talk to me) 20:39, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi Kudpung, thanks for looking at my efforts. The reams of interviews on the subject Peter Jarrette exist in American papers from the 70's and 80's which I too cannot access print on however I have read these tears sheets. Along with NYC features in Art Direction magazine (listed) and scores of interviews in Trinidad Press form the 70's 80's and 90's...the last blitz being again mid 90's. How can I cite these beyond perhaps the names of the published mag/news titles if these all appeared before the times of google and wikipedia...obviously both new formats that have yet to trawl backwards in time to include some really outstanding types from art and media worlds etc? May I just say that I detect a negative note in the responses of some of your editors as regards my efforts and those of others that seem to be slated for their subject choices that for whatever reason are not of interest to the Sci-Fi pundits and middle aged niche interest individuals who seem to be prevalent here? No offence intended....simply my own opinion as per face value and profile reading thus far. Also to suggest that I am my subjects alter ego? How does one arrive at this? The Google entries, if you care to spend time researching this chap, perhaps by archives of the magazines that you can access, are articles written and published by others on him in legit and heavily circulated, established and respected magazines. I am simply trying to write an article on a person and like you I am trying to find my way into his past works and examples but if they have not been filed online say like his illustrations for Mademoiselle Magazine in the early 80's then what would you suggest I or someone else do? Like wise citing the existence of his grandparent who I have never met and I believe even the subject has never met? So, what is Wikipedia then? Is it a special interest source for a closed society of individuals who share harsh and dismissive views of things they do not know or care to consider? I understood there was an etiquette policy in place but with the feedback I have recieved from one or two more pointed editors it seems that this may not be the case in fact. I will continue to experience this site to my aim as long as permitted and thanks again for your words. They have been very discouraging and ungenerous however. -- Eggs Aldo ( talk) 18:49, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Kudpung. I'm not really familiar with you personally, only with your contributions and the fact that you're around a lot. Have you considered an RfA recently? You seem rather sensible, have great content contributions, and seem like the kind of editor that's passing RfA with flying colors nowadays. I don't know if you have a nom in mind, but you should definitely consider it! ceran thor 01:35, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Exciral. I'm surprised you put a G11 on this. I would have thought a A7 if it needs a speedy, but it's really a classic example for a BLPPROD unless I have missed something. Anyway, it's entirely up to you :) -- Kudpung ( talk) 12:01, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
Hello, I'm new to wikipedia and i'm making this page about edna wilma for a class. I plan on adding a lot more about this person, but we needed to submit a stub about them before the deadline. I was wondering if you could help me make this page work. I'm not trying to give any false information or make a joke of wikipedia. I really want this page to work out, mainly because my grade is dependent on it.

Hi,
Thank you for your help and comments with the above article. There are more references to come, including international merits and awards - and hopefully a list of recordings. The page is certainly worthwhile, given the number of international positions held and invitations received.

Hi Kudpung,
Greetings from Malvern. I wondered if there was any chance that you could help us out at WP:URBLPR sourcing a number of articles on Thai footballers that we have found in the latest month? I know you live in Thailand, and I assume you speak Thai, so I thought this might be a much easier job for you than it is for the rest of us. We think there are about 18 this month (Oct 2008) that will need to be done. Very many thanks Hallucegenia ( talk) 15:37, 20 November 2010 (UTC)
Hi Hallucegenia,
There were indeed exactly 18 - I picked them out by simply recognising the Thai names, but apart from that the work, which took just over 5 hours, was not a net benefit to the encyclopedia in terms of ROI for the time spent. IMHO, the project really needs to consider focusing its priorities on the articles that have greater quantities of unsourced content, and where keeping them could clearly be an enrichment to the encyclopedia. I'm inclined to let those that are already PRODED just slip awy into oblivion and not spend time duplicating the effort of searching to save what in my opinion was the single greatest mistake Wikipedia ever made: according de facto notabiity to every Tom, Dick, and Harry who has kicked a leather ball along a 100 m field ;) Results below. Cheers, --

Hi Storye book. Please bear with me if you are already aware of this. In early September changes were made to an infobox template that affected the display of hundreds of school crests/logos in the UK schools infobox.

Hi Kudpung. Thanks for remembering my interest. Yes I'm a retired teacher, among other things, but schools as such are not my primary interest. I am involved in researching certain school buildings and buildings on school sites, though. If Wiki needs me to help in that area, I'll do my best, but I don't think I'll be useful in an educational project group. Cheers and thanks again.-- Storye book ( talk) 11:09, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

With reference to Michael Wainer's (MIKE 13)'s possible deletion. MIKE 13 has produced 3 platinum singles, has composed/produced music for the #1 scripted show in the United States, NCIS as well as True Blood and NCIS:LA all while signed to and performing with entertainment icon LL Cool J. (as referenced by a televised performance at PetCo Pk (39, 000 ppl) in San Diego on major television network CBS. The link can be found between the article music mogul and possibly the most revered and respected man in modern music, Russell Simmons, ran on his personal website, globalgrind.com where he cites MIKE 13 as one of the most brilliant young producers in the business...Mr. Wainer is also featured on LL Cool J's personal website, boomdizzle.com as an "ALL Star" and is posted alongside the national television/in store and internet commercial campaign which MIKE 13 composed, produced and appeared in bearing both the LL Cool J trademarked logo and the SEARS trademarked logo.
Currently Mr. Wainer is composing the theme song for a newly developed CBS series and collaborating with fellow producer, Timbaland and recording artist Justin Timberlake on three new singles to be released in early 2011 in a collaborative effort btwn LL Cool J's label and Timerlake's Jive Records.
A simple email to Wainer's management Violator Mgmt, google search or comtact with Wainers Performing Licensing Society, BMI, will bear the burden of notability.
A 25 year old man, under the wing of LL Cool J with the support of Russell Simmons produces music which has sold over 3 million units worldwide, writes and produces for the # 1 show on television as well as many others and has written, produced and actually appeared in a national commercial marketing campaign side by side with retail giant SEARS and grammy award winning, emmy nominated LL Cool J....
We here at CBS records Public Relations feel that there are many less qualified who walk the halls of wiki...short of a grammy, there is virtually nothing MIKE 13 - Michael Wainer has yet to accomplish.

You tagged The Warrior Heir for deletion as a copyvio of http://www.wikibin.org/articles/the-heir-chronicles-2.html. While it was a copyvio, that website wasn't the one whose copyright was infringed upon: everything on Wikibin comes from deleted Wikipedia articles (in this case, The Heir Chronicles), which in this case was CC-by-sa licensed by dint of being created here on Wikipedia, so those whose copyright was infringed are the original authors of the Wikipedia article. Whenever you find something copied from Wikibin, you can tag the article for deletion with {{ db-repost}} (with the title of the Wikibin page as the WP article that's been reposted), for that will likely make the deleting admin's job easier and quicker. As well, that way, the deleting admin won't be likely to say "Not a copyvio, just taken from a Wikipedia mirror". Thanks for your help! Nyttend ( talk) 12:10, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
One way to add multiple red dots to the map is to use {{ location map+}} amd {{ location map~}}. For example, the wiki-markup below produces the map to the right (showing Bromsgrove, Malvern, Pershore, Redditch, Stourport-on-Severn and Worcester).
As for "correcting the ones already on it", I'm not sure what you mean: Do you mean incorrect red dots on a use somewhere, or something wrong on the background map itself? If the first, where is the problem? In that case, it may be the coordinates are incorrect?. If the second, what's wrong? I'd need to fix the SVG file in that instance.-- Nilf anion ( talk) 11:23, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
