Hi Mdann52. At Btljs's talk page, you mentioned that the "vast amounts of different coding used about the place" was making coding the bot difficult. Do you think it would help to limit the scope to just the Formula One driver/team/car articles, where there is likely to be less variation among the coding? (Or perhaps that's all you've been looking at?) DH85868993 ( talk) 09:27, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
It is my pleasure to inform you that your nomination to the Mediation Committee has been closed as successful. The open tasks template, which you might like to add to your watchlist, is used to co-ordinate our open cases; please feel free to take on an unassigned dispute at any time. Please e-mail me directly so that I know which e-mail address to use when subscribing you to the committee mailing list, which is occasionally used for internal discussion. When you are subscribed, feel free to post to this at any point if you need feedback from the other mediators. If you have any questions, please let me know. I look forward to working with you!

Hi! I'm contacting you because you offered to help with the File metadata cleanup drive on this wiki. There are still many files lacking machine-readable information, and many of them can be fixed by adding special markers to the information and copyright templates. Even occasional or small edits are appreciated :) I'm available via email, IRC or on-wiki to answer questions if you're not sure how to proceed. Let me know if you need help! Guillaume Paumier 21:10, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
Hello Mdann52. This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to you in particular.
The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when hallmarks of copyvios in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered.
If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied from the draft, rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the Wayback Machine is very useful for sussing that out.)
If you do find a copyright violation, please do not decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using {{db-g12|url=URL of source}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with {{subst:copyvio|url=URL of source}}.
Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with weasel words; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors.
I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards-- Fuhghettaboutit ( talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC).

I just became aware of your travesty of a bad close of the Media Viewer RFC, calling a 2-to-1 margin "NO CONSENSUS". Then I see that you are the person who displayed such flawed judgment as to SNOW CLOSE an RFC on a fundamental Wikipedia institution, RFC/U. You should never close anything at Wikipedia again. I have absolutely not the slightest modicum of confidence in your decision-making abilities in this regard. —Tim Davenport, Corvallis, OR USA /// Carrite ( talk) 14:00, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
Hello Cookies52. We communicated on the live chat forum last week about a page that I'm working on ( /info/en/?search=Draft:Alan C. Fox). It had been rejected for some small technical reasons and you generously offered to make the required updates and publish the page. I wanted to follow up and see when you think you'll be able to do this. I know you are probably very busy, and I don't intend to push. Just want to make sure that it's still on your list. Thanks! :) ( Pitneyj ( talk) 16:14, 19 November 2014 (UTC)Pitneyj 11.19.14)
Hello Mdann52,
FYI, a page you approved for publication, Baye McNeil, has been proposed for deletion by user Nagoyabllue, and I thought you might want to participate in the debate: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Baye McNeil. As you know, I went through the articles for creation desk with this article…I look forward to your thoughts on the proposed deletion…Hoping you're well...Thank you!...

Hey, I am a new wikipedia user, and I want to help patrol the recent changes log. However, I'm not too sure on how to warn vandals about their vandalism - I've got instructions given to me a while back when I first joined, they don't seem to work anymore. I'd love to have a nice, easy to follow way of using those warning templates. I've downloaded this plugin another wikipedian recommanded me a while back, I'm not sure what it's called, but I use it to patrol the recent changes list. Thanks!

Do you have a username associated with those draft articles? The author account, RenewTheaters ( talk) was softblocked as a group account, and I don't know whether she has yet set up an individual account.

Hi, I don't want to step on your toes with the Arab Winter mediation, but it seems like a challenging case. I noticed you said you were going to try to rewrite the article. While there is sometimes value in the mediator editing the article, it seems early to be trying to implement a proposed solution to the dispute before there has been much guided discussion among participants. I think in order to settle the dispute you will need to unpack the arguments and positions held by the various participants first. Does that make sense? I know you are relatively new to the committee, so perhaps it might make sense to review some of the instruction and explanation pages a bit more. Not trying to be condescending, just trying to be helpful. Andrevan @ 20:39, 4 December 2014 (UTC)

Hello
Thanks for checking my draft fast,
sad thing is that you have declined the draft by saying that it seems like an advertisement. I had personally made it neutral under the guidance of 'Live chat help' provided by the Wikipedia,moreover as my last conversation happened with a wiki expert on chat.He said that I can use source created by the creator himself ,
If this draft is not up to the mark please show me what can be done.

Thank you for your comments re my article on Smögen Whisky.

Hi. I would like to re-request something that got apparently overlooked. Could you please officially close this discussion? This is the discussion that was referred to WP:DRN and was resolved successfully there and closed by you. By doing this, we would have an "official" consensus if this issue is ever raised again.

Hi there. We connected a while back in the live chat about a page that I've submitted for Alan C. Fox ( /info/en/?search=Draft:Alan_C._Fox). The latest draft (at that time) had been rejected for some small formatting issues...and when we met on the live chat, you generously offered to fix them and then accept the page. I noticed that you did indeed fix the errors and then re-submit the page for review. Thanks for doing this!
Unfortunately, I just found out that the new draft that you submitted was rejected for reasons that I thought I had dealt with in my earlier drafts and which you and other reviewers seemed to be okay with. I'm very confused as to why, especially because the feedback that the previous draft received was only re: formatting issues, not content. The person who rejected the new page rejected the content on notability issues. Do you have any advice on how to proceed? Thanks! ( Pitneyj ( talk) 16:13, 15 December 2014 (UTC)Pitneyj)

Hello
Thanks for checking my draft fast,
sad thing is that you have declined the draft by saying that it seems like an advertisement. I had personally made it neutral under the guidance of 'Live chat help' provided by the Wikipedia,moreover as my last conversation happened with a wiki expert on chat.He said that I can use source created by the creator himself ,
If this draft is not up to the mark please show me what can be done.
Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.121.101.214 ( talk) 05:59, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi
Thank you for your comments re my article on Smögen Whisky. The piece is 8 sentences with 11 references, including a reference to Expressen, one of Sweden's two national newspapers, and an internationally recognised award. What else would you suggest I do to have his page accepted? Allezzoomzoom ( talk) 10:34, 9 December 2014 (UTC)
Hi. I would like to re-request something that got apparently overlooked. Could you please officially close this discussion? This is the discussion that was referred to WP:DRN and was resolved successfully there and closed by you. By doing this, we would have an "official" consensus if this issue is ever raised again. Regards, Tvx1 ( talk) 01:04, 12 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi there. We connected a while back in the live chat about a page that I've submitted for Alan C. Fox ( /info/en/?search=Draft:Alan_C._Fox). The latest draft (at that time) had been rejected for some small formatting issues...and when we met on the live chat, you generously offered to fix them and then accept the page. I noticed that you did indeed fix the errors and then re-submit the page for review. Thanks for doing this!
Unfortunately, I just found out that the new draft that you submitted was rejected for reasons that I thought I had dealt with in my earlier drafts and which you and other reviewers seemed to be okay with. I'm very confused as to why, especially because the feedback that the previous draft received was only re: formatting issues, not content. The person who rejected the new page rejected the content on notability issues. Do you have any advice on how to proceed? Thanks! ( Pitneyj ( talk) 16:13, 15 December 2014 (UTC)Pitneyj)
