Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Soho, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Paul Raymond ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

While reviewing new pages I have come across editor Rikhiyart. He creates articles about Indian soaps and suchlike, has a complete disregard for copyright, including a plot summary copypasted from a source into each article at his first edit. I have been nominating some for speedy deletion but I have now come across Premer Kahini (TV series) which is not quite so clearcut. The plot summary is there at great length, but the apparent source only has a couple of sentences. From the style of the plot summary, I am sure it is a copypaste, but cannot prove it, though I suppose theoretically, the two sentences that are there would be enough for G12. I also think you might consider blocking this editor. Cwmhiraeth ( talk) 11:30, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
Ritchie, I reverted your CSD removal there. That's not something I would do lightly. You've clearly misinterpreted the A7 restriction. First, the restriction is for schools, not educational institutions. Clearly this is not a school. It isn't even an educational institution. It's an association of 10 private schools, with the sole purpose of screening admissions for them. The A7 restriction no more applies here than it would to an athletic conference. I'm asking that you reassess your position and either delete it, pass it on to another admin or articulate a different reason. It appears you agree it needs to go as you attempted to PROD it (you mangled the prod, but no biggie there). Thanks, and no disrespect intended. John from Idegon ( talk) 20:06, 7 January 2018 (UTC)
Hi, Ritchie333. I am asking you to reconsider your deletion of he Eshet Tourist Services Ltd article, and/or offer me feedback on causes for the deletion and means to improve this article. See below talk with Kudpung, who flagged post for deletion- he directed me to you. Briefly, I had no intention to make this article promotional and ensured I included references and content covering the controversy regarding how Eshet Tours secured a monopoly on Israel's Public Sector vacationing. I believe that given the size of the company, the importance of tourism to Israel for millions of Wiki users, and the little appreciated impact the Israeli public sector has on shaping the the tourism market, Eshet Tours meets the required notability benchmark and that reviewing it is justified.
"Hi, I was unable to respond to your speedy deletion nomination tag before the Eshet Tourist Services Ltd article I posted was shot down (given that this seems to have happened within minutes of the flagginf). I noted you flagged it as "promotional". I want to make it clear out front that I am not, and never have been, employed or in any business relationship with Eshet Tours and that my only contact with them has been as a reasonably (one time) satisfied customer who took the time to look into their mode of operations. Furthermore, I thought I adopted carefully neutral phrasing throughout the article, and also provided sources and pointed out the controversy surrounding the manner in which Eshet Tours secured a near monopoly on Israel's public sector vacations.
I therefore do not understand why you flagged down this article as promotional. I would appreciate your feedback and any advice on how this article, in which I invested a considerable chunk of my private time, can be made acceptable.
I understand that the issue of notability might also apply to this type of article. However, Eshet Tours is not a "garage company" - it is one the largest tourist companies in Israel with hundreds of employees and hundreds of thousands of customers per year which has been independently covered by the media in the references I provided. Furthermore, the field it is active in - tourism to Israel, is one that is of major interest and activity of millions of Wiki users, Jewish and otherwise. Knowledge of the market forces affecting this field (such as the aforementioned monopoly over Israeli public sector tourism) seems to me to be of interest to these users.
Looking forward to your feedback,

I watch this page and, when I saw the heading 'I'm retiring' thought it might have been written by Ritchie... Thankfully I see not. However, on reading I see that I too have an example where Arthistorian has AfD'd one of my recent creations, Jack Croft Baker, nom'd earlier today. He was knighted, had a CBE and was president of an industry association; he has an obituary in the Times and an entry in Who's Who. Bizarre AfD, but the second time in a week that an obviously notable article I've created has been AfD'd without justification (the other was for Murdo Maclean; it was CSD'd by someone else). I've never had this happen before, so it's a bit dumbfounding. — Noswall59 ( talk) 17:09, 8 January 2018 (UTC).

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Wey Valley Radio is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Wey Valley Radio (2nd nomination) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. – Davey2010 Talk 18:36, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

I cited it in a GA review myself recently.

...I may have spoiled the broth by pinging more cooks in. Let me suggest, if you're agreeable, that you propose that ALT2 (specifically) be re-ticked by the reviewer and that it be held for April 1. E Eng 18:57, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Please change the name without use of the accent mark. If you don't make this change, anyone searching for Herbert Siguenza is taken to the Culture Clash page. I tried to change, but I don't know how. My keyboard can't even type it, and I am afraid people will never find his page otherwise.

Hey Ritchie333, I found your name listed on the mentor list for GAR help and thought to approach you right away. I have started a GAR of Papal conclave, 1667. I am new to reviewing GAs, it would be awesome if I can get some help and guidance from you through the process. Ping me if you are up on it. Thanks! :) Simranpreet singh ( talk) 11:11, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
I have a source to verify what I had inserted into the article about Genesis - a book written by Bowler and Dray. The claim that Steve Hackett wasn't interested in writing shorter and simpler songs is mentioned in the book. 61.69.217.3 ( talk) 11:21, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

In November 2017 you have declined a submission of Draft:Pro:Atria. Much to my surprise, the draft showed up today as a fake article here. I am inclined to prevent further tricks like that by nominating it for deletion, but is that an unusual or harsh way to act? The Banner talk 18:11, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
Hi there. As you know, I'm not really a content-generating person but I decided to try my luck with User:SoWhy/SpellForce 3. Since you have so much more experience with GAs than I do, do you think you can give me some pointers before I'm moving it to main space? TIA and Regards So Why 14:08, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

The site Scrapbookpages.com qualifies as an unreliable source but it has been cited in the following historic articles: 222nd Infantry Regiment (United States), Old_Synagogue,_Kraków, Ilse_Koch. I don't know how many more. Would it be appropriate to blacklist the scrapbookpages site or not? Atsme 📞 📧 20:01, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

I'm not seeing it - what medal did he win? Atsme 📞 📧 21:34, 23 January 2018 (UTC)
I cited it in a GA review myself recently. In my case, it was arguing that our readers are reasonably intelligent enough to not need a Wikilink to Vatican when they are reading about papal conclaves, and that linking to a 20th century sovereign entity in a 17th century topic was a bit odd. Such a versatile essay. TonyBallioni ( talk) 13:35, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
I recently passed " Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing through GA review. Shouldn't Legobot have placed the GA icon on the article by now? Or can delays last hours at a time? TheGracefulSlick ( talk) 00:35, 19 January 2018 (UTC)
An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Nursery Cryme, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John Mayhew ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).
