Hi Chrissymad,
You declined my submission for an AfC, citing that one or more source(s) was not verifiable. I was wondering if you could tell me which of the sources was/were unverifiable? It would be a big help if you could. I was having some trouble finding sources that described the subject of my article, and literally the only source I could find simply describing the business in question was its own website. I understand Wikipedia states that this is not a verifiable source, but I have seen articles that do cite things from websites that the subject runs; one example I found was in an article for PHH Corporation, the second source listed is from PHH's own website. If one of my sources was unverifiable because of this, then could you tell me exactly what I wrote that isn't okay?
Thanks,

Barry Farah is an American businessman and motivational speaker who is a contender to be the Republican Nominee for Governor of Colorado. Mr. Farah's legal team is looking into remedies for his lack of ability to post a neutral wikipedia page. Can we please have the lawful name and address of the reviewer, as well as the name an address of their superior? Could you please provide us in-depth detail of what edits would be needed to make this article acceptable?

Could you provide some assistance in updating this page? I understand that you've reverted it to a previous version, but the information on there now is actually several years out of date and/or inaccurate. While I understand there might be some issues, I would still like to update the page. Is there at least a minimal amount of editing that could be done, while other aspects are still pending?

I feel that over the past 4 years, there are globally established 3rd party RS's - albeit in possibly a very weird format... and it seems you were given a lot of frustration... I received notice of your submission to delete my page. I replied, though with confusion. I feel that my work has been referenced by third party sources and more than once, covering the same themes of activism, my career as an expat entertainer (and prominently so in Seoul), and having been recognized by several respected sources.
I take exception to language such as exaggerated and spam (or the equivalent), but the feedback is valuable and rather than see a confusing deletion after 4 years and my asking wikipedia to assist me, I would prefer to improve the page. I see music bands thanking me, I do know some are in Korean language....i am at a loss, but i am also embarrassed and a but stunned. My career as an activist helped change legislation and this is documented via many interviews from national press. I ask for understanding for my emotional response as my work meant a great deal and what was contributed also meant a lot to me. I feel that it is clear there is truth or factual data, not "commissioned" data. I do feel offended, but this is understood as your job. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Megamediamissus ( talk • contribs) 16:56, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

I am respectfully requesting a re-review. I volunteered to write the Wikipedia page for a a very active philanthropic organization in my town that does not currently have a Wikipedia page. I have had deep experience contributing to another Wikipedia page which was published so was happy to roll up my sleeves and help them out. I do not work for Modernism Week and will not be compensated for this effort in any way. I have a full time job and have done this article on my own time.
What also motivated me to volunteer was that a more recent, newly-launched, art festival in our town, with some similarities and an overlap in audience, published a Wikipedia page after their first year this past year. They are: Desert X. They are a terrific, new non-profit event in the Coachella Valley. I used the Desert X page as an inspiration and a model that had successfully published. My references represent independent journalists writing about the organization. I checked many similar festival non-profit pages. I paid attention to, and stuck with, the citation guidelines very closely. The Modernism Week organization is mentioned on the city of Palm Springs Wikipedia page as well as other pages including those of most of the Palm Springs architects. It is validated on many pages in your community except having its own page. I ask you to respectfully reconsider the publication of the article. If you feel something is missing I will be happy to add it and likewise will delete what might not reach the bar for acceptance. I am continuing to go through the article and deleting anything that is not essential to the basic understanding of the organization. I think it is pared to its core mission and activities at this point but will continue to edit it. I will add that when I launched into this effort I mistakenly and naively used what I thought would be a harmless name to correlate with my volunteer effort: MWeek. That was met with instant disapproval. I read the justification, understood it, and moved immediately to change my name. It was an error on my part to create a "handle" that would mistakenly indicate I was paid by the organization. I am not being paid and am not employed by Modernism Week. I am volunteering. I hope that this answers that question. Thank you for your time. Abbe Rose Abbe Rose ( talk) 18:52, 18 April 2018 (UTC) Abbe Rose ( talk) 18:52, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

Thank you for your response. However, all the information there is factual. It is a matter of your opinion on bias. I believe that I had a NPOV with the edits as they are all taken right from the sources I cited.
You had the opinion that it was not a NPOV. They are right from the source.

Hello there,
I'm a communications coordinator for the Mining Industry Human Resources Council. We are a not-for-profit organization located in Kanata, Ontario, Canada.
Our communications team is currently in the process of revitalizing our own website, and as such I thought it would be a good idea to update our Wikipedia page to better reflect our programs / content to better serve our members.
So far, I have only modified the introduction, added a brief background section and a few services. I also adjusted the sidebar to be more infomrative. Finally, I removed the old programs, MWIN and MiHR innovate, as they are very outdated and no longer in use. You have reverted these changes on the basis that they appeared promotional.
My intention is not to advertise, but to update our content so as to not mislead our members or others interested - much of the information on our current Wikipedia page is outdated, and I want our page to be the best possible reflection of our organization.
If you could please stop undoing my changes, I would greatly appreciate it.
Kind Regards,

The second round of the 2018 WikiCup has now finished. Most contestants who advanced to the next round scored upwards of 100 points, but two with just 10 points managed to scrape through into round 3. Our top scorers in the last round were:
So far contestants have achieved twelve featured articles between them and a splendid 124 good articles. Commendably, 326 GARs have been completed during the course of the 2018 WikiCup, so the backlog of articles awaiting GA review has been reduced as a result of contestants' activities. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met; most of the GARs are fine, but a few have been a bit skimpy.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required). Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hi there! I crafted my first wiki page but was not accepted due to 'This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources.'.
I was just wondering if possible to get advice on what sources were or weren't reliable within the article, so I can replace them with more appropriate ones? OR, if it's the content rather than the sources cited that is the issue?

I don't know the controversy with the creator of the page but this is a notable show with enough internet hits to be sourced very well. I intend to remove the deletion tags and add many good references to make the page better.

Dear Mdm User:Chrissymad,
I understood that you had suspected that I might have committed a conflict of interest, due to the specific updates I have done since I had already stepped in to help out with the article and reverted my revision yesterday, which I fully respected your decision.
Although I personally went as far as getting a photo (yet-to-be approved in wikicommons due to an issue) from Annette herself soon after I had completed my said revision on the article in order to simply represent the article of the said person, so that it would at least be displayed just like any other wiki articles which I and everyone had seen at the Wikipedia website, I would like to declare that I am neither a close friend nor a promoter to Ms Annette Lee. I am merely a contributor to Wikipedia and most recently as the approved person of her permitted photo to be uploaded to the wikicommons.
For this I greatly apologies for all the inconveniences and misunderstandings caused to the administrators at Wikipedia and Wikicommons.
I would like to discuss with you what can be at best done with the said article which currently having multiple issues, and would wished to hopefully revise it upon your request but under your supervision. Thank you Mdm. Rqiang84 ( talk) 11:30, 11 May 2018 (GMT+8)

Chrisdevelop ( talk) 18:44, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for reviewing my article on Derek Williams. While I appreciate you're still mid-review, most of the deletions you are making have now become un-undoable. For example, I note you have deleted his entire discography on the grounds that he entered all the credits on Discogs himself, however if you take a look through all 35 credits, not all are on Discogs, and you will find he entered only a few that had been missing from the catalogue. Moreover, there are many others credited on these albums, including the record companies themselves, and I have not seen any challenges made. The majority were not initiated by him, he is merely a contributor among other contributors, and those he did edit are also to be found on other catalogues such as CastAlbums, which were also listed in the Discography.
I notice you've also deleted numerous citations on the grounds that they're not directly about him, yet the full page story in the Rotorua Daily Post was entirely about him, in fact the article headline directly names him, so I am at a loss to know why that wasn't admissible in the background to his LGBT activism.
Re the Early Life part of the bio which you entirely deleted on the grounds that it was 'unsourced', as I understand it, facts such as which primary school the biographee went to don't all require to be sourced, as they're unlikely to be disputed, and it's nearly impossible to find a newspaper article about where a 5-18 year old child lived and went to school. Were that to be the case then the article would indeed become 'refbombed'. I also suggest that not every citation has to be directly about the individual, if it ties crucial facts together. For example, to place him in the White House, I had to first place the choir in the White House, and to do that, I had to go to Pat Nixon's diary for that day, and then to show from other sources that the Festival Choir Williams belonged to was there.
I added the section on his grandfather because Claud Williams himself was notable enough to have an entire chapter written about him as a notable explorer in the book Great Desert Explorers by Andrew Goudie, alongside a number of other books, and Derek Williams represented the Williams family not only at the Royal Geographical Society launch of his book, but in its research phase. He is also mentioned by name in the book acknowledgements, and in an independent review of the launch where he was the invited guest speaker, which was among the citations deleted. What I had been hoping for in the Review phase was helpful feedback, so I could make the fixes myself, and thereby avoid accidental deletions of items like the above.

Showing my appreciation for looking out for me. He's starting to get quite annoying, and his behavior is rather...bizarre. But I don't let him get to me much. Thanks for sticking up for a guy who was too lazy to report him. He gave me a barnstar the other day, and I honestly couldn't tell if he was being sincere or not. Guess not. Then today he touched my userpage and went to report him only to find he was blocked already. He keeps spamming the Metallica logo I have in my userpage to the band's talk page, too. How strange. Wonder why he goes after me...maybe because I can correctly identify him? Anyway, thanks a bunch. dannymusiceditor oops 14:25, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi Chrissymad, I've just seen that you have declined an article I've authored on Kastus Technologies on the basis that its sources lack notability. The note left on the page stated that "Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject". At the minute, I'm struggling to see how the sources fail to meet these criteria. There has been significant coverage of the topic across nearly every major Irish print newspaper, which themselves are reliable and secondary sources. There is also a scientific journal, which is an independent peer-reviewed journal verifying the properties of Kastus' product. Other sources include articles published by DIT, Ireland's largest Insititute of Technology. If these sources aren't suitable enough, then please help me by letting me know what is. Thanks for any help you can give me. Caileam Raleigh ( talk) 13:05, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
"Kastus’ Log4+ product is proven to eradicate the growth of 99.99% of harmful bacteria ..."without a decent secondary medical source. Hope that helps. -- RexxS ( talk) 13:55, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
@ RexxS: Hi, the sources listed are independent of the company and not press releases. As for the Nature article, John Browne is listed as an author as he provided assistance in developing the microbial testing and providing materials preparation during the actual experiment as it states at the bottom, however he did not author any of the article. For an article to be published by Nature.com, it must be independently peer reviewed. Caileam Raleigh ( talk) 14:59, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
@ RexxS: One of the news sources listed is RTE, the state broadcaster in Ireland, which obviously would not accept PR sourced articles. However, I understand your hesitance over the other sources but they are simply not PR articles. The subject of this article has made quite a splash in Ireland with the potential implications that its product might have for a vast array of areas and this can be verified by reading the company's profile of the Enterprise Ireland website (a government body overseeing business in Ireland) and Dublin Institute of Technology's website. I have had a look at the Identifying Sources page and I do not see how I have breached any of its guidelines. Also, as a journalism graduate, I am well aware of what churnalism is.
Hello, Chrissymad. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, " Baltimore City Council District 1".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia

code.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

The source is appropriate, since it is the article itself. Find me any other war in the articles that you are constanlty changing, that are based in any other references outside of the articles. Which are the several editors and how is an edit war since I haven't passed the limit.? How you can changed it with out talking it in the talk page? Who is reverting my edits and how this is excused? I will revert it on my own time with 5 proper sources, and then we will be discussing it in the board. Jazz1972 ( talk) 18:57, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi there! Thanks for reviewing my article. Could you please indicate which parts of it read like an advertisement so that I can amend it? I have read it so many times now, and I edited it after it was rejected the first time, but to no avail. All I can see are facts that I have stated about the organisation, and I can't see where I have gone wrong. This is my first time writing an article for Wikipedia, so I would really appreciate more specific guidance on what to change, as I am now at a loss as to what to do next. Many thanks!

Hello Chrissymad,
You wrote "Hello, I'm Chrissymad. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, Juventutem, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so!"
Yes, it is true. I made 40(?) changes to this article, updating Juventutem's article on Juventutem's birthday. I am not sure which change you're saying lack a "reliable source." If you want to identify that change here, I'm glad to add in a reliable source for that change. Otherwise, I'm just going to revert the whole article to its corrected form.

The lists of Facebook links were pre-existing. Look at the history. As of yesterday, there was a list of Facebook links that was largely out-of-date. I have updated the entry to include a list of websites (including Facebook links) that is more up-to-date.
GiovanniBosco ( talk) 18:42, 24 May 2018 (UTC)GiovanniBosco
Your reversion made the entry worse, not better. It is "encyclopedic" (vis. "the ordered presentation of all information") to point the Wikipedia user to all of the various teams that are carrying out Juventutem activities. The resource that you linked to ("Help:Referencing for beginners") does not offer any contrary definition of "encyclopedic."
GiovanniBosco ( talk) 18:55, 24 May 2018 (UTC)GiovanniBosco
... any way, have a nice day. Whether there are lists or not, your reversion still undoes the other grammatical corrections and updates that I had entered.

Hi Chrissymad,
You declined my submission for an AfC, citing that one or more source(s) was not verifiable. I was wondering if you could tell me which of the sources was/were unverifiable? It would be a big help if you could. I was having some trouble finding sources that described the subject of my article, and literally the only source I could find simply describing the business in question was its own website. I understand Wikipedia states that this is not a verifiable source, but I have seen articles that do cite things from websites that the subject runs; one example I found was in an article for PHH Corporation, the second source listed is from PHH's own website. If one of my sources was unverifiable because of this, then could you tell me exactly what I wrote that isn't okay?
Thanks,

I feel that over the past 4 years, there are globally established 3rd party RS's - albeit in possibly a very weird format... and it seems you were given a lot of frustration... I received notice of your submission to delete my page. I replied, though with confusion. I feel that my work has been referenced by third party sources and more than once, covering the same themes of activism, my career as an expat entertainer (and prominently so in Seoul), and having been recognized by several respected sources.
I take exception to language such as exaggerated and spam (or the equivalent), but the feedback is valuable and rather than see a confusing deletion after 4 years and my asking wikipedia to assist me, I would prefer to improve the page. I see music bands thanking me, I do know some are in Korean language....i am at a loss, but i am also embarrassed and a but stunned. My career as an activist helped change legislation and this is documented via many interviews from national press. I ask for understanding for my emotional response as my work meant a great deal and what was contributed also meant a lot to me. I feel that it is clear there is truth or factual data, not "commissioned" data. I do feel offended, but this is understood as your job. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Megamediamissus ( talk • contribs) 16:56, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

I am respectfully requesting a re-review. I volunteered to write the Wikipedia page for a a very active philanthropic organization in my town that does not currently have a Wikipedia page. I have had deep experience contributing to another Wikipedia page which was published so was happy to roll up my sleeves and help them out. I do not work for Modernism Week and will not be compensated for this effort in any way. I have a full time job and have done this article on my own time.
What also motivated me to volunteer was that a more recent, newly-launched, art festival in our town, with some similarities and an overlap in audience, published a Wikipedia page after their first year this past year. They are: Desert X. They are a terrific, new non-profit event in the Coachella Valley. I used the Desert X page as an inspiration and a model that had successfully published. My references represent independent journalists writing about the organization. I checked many similar festival non-profit pages. I paid attention to, and stuck with, the citation guidelines very closely. The Modernism Week organization is mentioned on the city of Palm Springs Wikipedia page as well as other pages including those of most of the Palm Springs architects. It is validated on many pages in your community except having its own page. I ask you to respectfully reconsider the publication of the article. If you feel something is missing I will be happy to add it and likewise will delete what might not reach the bar for acceptance. I am continuing to go through the article and deleting anything that is not essential to the basic understanding of the organization. I think it is pared to its core mission and activities at this point but will continue to edit it. I will add that when I launched into this effort I mistakenly and naively used what I thought would be a harmless name to correlate with my volunteer effort: MWeek. That was met with instant disapproval. I read the justification, understood it, and moved immediately to change my name. It was an error on my part to create a "handle" that would mistakenly indicate I was paid by the organization. I am not being paid and am not employed by Modernism Week. I am volunteering. I hope that this answers that question. Thank you for your time. Abbe Rose Abbe Rose ( talk) 18:52, 18 April 2018 (UTC) Abbe Rose ( talk) 18:52, 18 April 2018 (UTC)

Hello there,
I'm a communications coordinator for the Mining Industry Human Resources Council. We are a not-for-profit organization located in Kanata, Ontario, Canada.
Our communications team is currently in the process of revitalizing our own website, and as such I thought it would be a good idea to update our Wikipedia page to better reflect our programs / content to better serve our members.
So far, I have only modified the introduction, added a brief background section and a few services. I also adjusted the sidebar to be more infomrative. Finally, I removed the old programs, MWIN and MiHR innovate, as they are very outdated and no longer in use. You have reverted these changes on the basis that they appeared promotional.
My intention is not to advertise, but to update our content so as to not mislead our members or others interested - much of the information on our current Wikipedia page is outdated, and I want our page to be the best possible reflection of our organization.
If you could please stop undoing my changes, I would greatly appreciate it.

The second round of the 2018 WikiCup has now finished. Most contestants who advanced to the next round scored upwards of 100 points, but two with just 10 points managed to scrape through into round 3. Our top scorers in the last round were:
So far contestants have achieved twelve featured articles between them and a splendid 124 good articles. Commendably, 326 GARs have been completed during the course of the 2018 WikiCup, so the backlog of articles awaiting GA review has been reduced as a result of contestants' activities. As we enter the third round, remember that any content promoted after the end of round 2 but before the start of round 3 can be claimed in round 3. Remember too that you must claim your points within 14 days of "earning" them. When doing GARs, please make sure that you check that all the GA criteria are fully met; most of the GARs are fine, but a few have been a bit skimpy.
If you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article nominations, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews Needed (remember to remove your listing when no longer required).

Hi! OK I understand there was the hand of a sock user, but there were my edits too. Please guide what to do to restore my added content. Thanks! M. Billoo 00:33, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
I don't know the controversy with the creator of the page but this is a notable show with enough internet hits to be sourced very well. I intend to remove the deletion tags and add many good references to make the page better. And since you have removed "tellychakkar" and "indiantelevision.com" references citing them as "exclusively wikis" is largely baseless accusations. Both are reputed "non wiki" internet news source running for more than last 17 years. Thanks JayB91 ( talk) 20:09, 11 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello Chrissymad. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Draft:Busiswa, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Not so promotional it can't remain in draftspace. Thank you. GorillaWarfare (talk) 21:53, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
Please stop reverting the old pages, the article was further written by an experienced user. If you have any issues, please highlight the offending parts in the talk page thanks
Dear Mdm User:Chrissymad,
I understood that you had suspected that I might have committed a conflict of interest, due to the specific updates I have done since I had already stepped in to help out with the article and reverted my revision yesterday, which I fully respected your decision.
Although I personally went as far as getting a photo (yet-to-be approved in wikicommons due to an issue) from Annette herself soon after I had completed my said revision on the article in order to simply represent the article of the said person, so that it would at least be displayed just like any other wiki articles which I and everyone had seen at the Wikipedia website, I would like to declare that I am neither a close friend nor a promoter to Ms Annette Lee. I am merely a contributor to Wikipedia and most recently as the approved person of her permitted photo to be uploaded to the wikicommons.
For this I greatly apologies for all the inconveniences and misunderstandings caused to the administrators at Wikipedia and Wikicommons.
I would like to discuss with you what can be at best done with the said article which currently having multiple issues, and would wished to hopefully revise it upon your request but under your supervision. Thank you Mdm. Rqiang84 ( talk) 11:30, 11 May 2018 (GMT+8)

I have spent some days revising and improving this article, with many citations, and organising the material into sections. I have just noted that you have reverted all of this. The merges were the result of an AfD discussion re Save Sibelius, and I note this merge has also been reverted. Can you please go into detail as to why none of the edits are ok? Thank you. Chrisdevelop ( talk) 18:44, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for reviewing my article on Derek Williams. While I appreciate you're still mid-review, most of the deletions you are making have now become un-undoable. For example, I note you have deleted his entire discography on the grounds that he entered all the credits on Discogs himself, however if you take a look through all 35 credits, not all are on Discogs, and you will find he entered only a few that had been missing from the catalogue. Moreover, there are many others credited on these albums, including the record companies themselves, and I have not seen any challenges made. The majority were not initiated by him, he is merely a contributor among other contributors, and those he did edit are also to be found on other catalogues such as CastAlbums, which were also listed in the Discography.
I notice you've also deleted numerous citations on the grounds that they're not directly about him, yet the full page story in the Rotorua Daily Post was entirely about him, in fact the article headline directly names him, so I am at a loss to know why that wasn't admissible in the background to his LGBT activism.
Re the Early Life part of the bio which you entirely deleted on the grounds that it was 'unsourced', as I understand it, facts such as which primary school the biographee went to don't all require to be sourced, as they're unlikely to be disputed, and it's nearly impossible to find a newspaper article about where a 5-18 year old child lived and went to school. Were that to be the case then the article would indeed become 'refbombed'. I also suggest that not every citation has to be directly about the individual, if it ties crucial facts together. For example, to place him in the White House, I had to first place the choir in the White House, and to do that, I had to go to Pat Nixon's diary for that day, and then to show from other sources that the Festival Choir Williams belonged to was there.
I added the section on his grandfather because Claud Williams himself was notable enough to have an entire chapter written about him as a notable explorer in the book Great Desert Explorers by Andrew Goudie, alongside a number of other books, and Derek Williams represented the Williams family not only at the Royal Geographical Society launch of his book, but in its research phase. He is also mentioned by name in the book acknowledgements, and in an independent review of the launch where he was the invited guest speaker, which was among the citations deleted. What I had been hoping for in the Review phase was helpful feedback, so I could make the fixes myself, and thereby avoid accidental deletions of items like the above.

Hello Chrissymad. I don't understand why you declined the article 'maurice smeyers'. Can you please explain? Because this text is approved by the Dutch Wikipedia, and appears in several art historical encyclopedia (which are neutral)
Thanks for looking at the article. I'm not sure what the problem was where you added the {{ citation needed}} in this edit, but the quotes are definitely in the source cited ( http://www.literarymatters.org/ryan-wilson-our-editor/). Let me know if I've misunderstood your intent there. -- RexxS ( talk) 18:45, 16 May 2018 (UTC)
Showing my appreciation for looking out for me. He's starting to get quite annoying, and his behavior is rather...bizarre. But I don't let him get to me much. Thanks for sticking up for a guy who was too lazy to report him. He gave me a barnstar the other day, and I honestly couldn't tell if he was being sincere or not. Guess not. Then today he touched my userpage and went to report him only to find he was blocked already. He keeps spamming the Metallica logo I have in my userpage to the band's talk page, too. How strange. Wonder why he goes after me...maybe because I can correctly identify him? Anyway, thanks a bunch. dannymusiceditor oops 14:25, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi Chrissymad, I've just seen that you have declined an article I've authored on Kastus Technologies on the basis that its sources lack notability. The note left on the page stated that "Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject". At the minute, I'm struggling to see how the sources fail to meet these criteria. There has been significant coverage of the topic across nearly every major Irish print newspaper, which themselves are reliable and secondary sources. There is also a scientific journal, which is an independent peer-reviewed journal verifying the properties of Kastus' product. Other sources include articles published by DIT, Ireland's largest Insititute of Technology. If these sources aren't suitable enough, then please help me by letting me know what is. Thanks for any help you can give me. Caileam Raleigh ( talk) 13:05, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
"Kastus’ Log4+ product is proven to eradicate the growth of 99.99% of harmful bacteria ..."without a decent secondary medical source. Hope that helps. -- RexxS ( talk) 13:55, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
@ RexxS: Hi, the sources listed are independent of the company and not press releases. As for the Nature article, John Browne is listed as an author as he provided assistance in developing the microbial testing and providing materials preparation during the actual experiment as it states at the bottom, however he did not author any of the article. For an article to be published by Nature.com, it must be independently peer reviewed. Caileam Raleigh ( talk) 14:59, 18 May 2018 (UTC)
@ RexxS: One of the news sources listed is RTE, the state broadcaster in Ireland, which obviously would not accept PR sourced articles. However, I understand your hesitance over the other sources but they are simply not PR articles. The subject of this article has made quite a splash in Ireland with the potential implications that its product might have for a vast array of areas and this can be verified by reading the company's profile of the Enterprise Ireland website (a government body overseeing business in Ireland) and Dublin Institute of Technology's website. I have had a look at the Identifying Sources page and I do not see how I have breached any of its guidelines. Also, as a journalism graduate, I am well aware of what churnalism is.

The article is saying something. What is the artcile is saying? The same apply to the list of wars involving Cyprus that you have changed. I can add all the reference of the article. However the articles are to be in harmony between them, in the first place Jazz1972 ( talk) 18:30, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
You need to do it now, since you have changed it already 2 times and I can not change it, a third time in a row, in a short period of time, since then you can accuse me for edit war. It is very simple. We shouldn't even having this discussion. The article is saying something and is properly referenced. All articles in relation with it, should be in harmony with that Jazz1972 ( talk) 18:36, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
The source is appropriate, since it is the article itself. Find me any other war in the articles that you are constanlty changing, that are based in any other references outside of the articles. Which are the several editors and how is an edit war since I haven't passed the limit.? How you can changed it with out talking it in the talk page? Who is reverting my edits and how this is excused? I will revert it on my own time with 5 proper sources, and then we will be discussing it in the board. Jazz1972 ( talk) 18:57, 19 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi there! Thanks for reviewing my article. Could you please indicate which parts of it read like an advertisement so that I can amend it? I have read it so many times now, and I edited it after it was rejected the first time, but to no avail. All I can see are facts that I have stated about the organisation, and I can't see where I have gone wrong. This is my first time writing an article for Wikipedia, so I would really appreciate more specific guidance on what to change, as I am now at a loss as to what to do next. Many thanks!

Hello. I am a very green wikipedia user! I have made some edits to the submission in hopes that it will read more objectively. After reading your review I can understand why it was rejected. I am also looking for more reference links but it is difficult to find information online as many of Klypso's career milestones occurred before the great social media wave. Do you have any other suggestions? Wikipedia can be a great tool and I am hoping to learn more about the submission process. Thank you for your help.

Hello Chrissymad,
You wrote "Hello, I'm Chrissymad. I noticed that you made one or more changes to an article, Juventutem, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so!"
Yes, it is true. I made 40(?) changes to this article, updating Juventutem's article on Juventutem's birthday. I am not sure which change you're saying lack a "reliable source." If you want to identify that change here, I'm glad to add in a reliable source for that change. Otherwise, I'm just going to revert the whole article to its corrected form.

The lists of Facebook links were pre-existing. Look at the history. As of yesterday, there was a list of Facebook links that was largely out-of-date. I have updated the entry to include a list of websites (including Facebook links) that is more up-to-date.
GiovanniBosco ( talk) 18:42, 24 May 2018 (UTC)GiovanniBosco
Your reversion made the entry worse, not better. It is "encyclopedic" (vis. "the ordered presentation of all information") to point the Wikipedia user to all of the various teams that are carrying out Juventutem activities. The resource that you linked to ("Help:Referencing for beginners") does not offer any contrary definition of "encyclopedic."
GiovanniBosco ( talk) 18:55, 24 May 2018 (UTC)GiovanniBosco
... any way, have a nice day. Whether there are lists or not, your reversion still undoes the other grammatical corrections and updates that I had entered.
