Dear P, heartfelt thanks for your appreciation! I am doing my best, mostly with pleasure, especially with the support of someone like yourself. -- Po Kadzieli ( talk) 14:46, 22 August 2016 (UTC)

Thank you for notifying me about the case. I have added sources, every information has now its reference to reliable source. I have deleted the deletion template. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kubos16 ( talk • contribs) 19:03, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, Pyotr, much appreciated. You see, I am not entirely happy with my English, and a bit of extra exposure is exactly what I am not craving for. Would feel like a model scrambling up a podium in full knowledge that her figure is not entirely up to scratch)) I've read some of your stuff, too, found it quite brilliant and am a bit jealous - with your fine command of English :) -- Evermore2 ( talk) 19:34, 24 August 2016 (UTC)

Thank you Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus so much for your point of view! I hope this discussion will help to improve WP:SPORTBIO. Also for the reason that now there are many pages dedicated exactly to basketball referees in the space of Wikipedia. Here are just a few examples: https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luigi_Lamonica /info/en/?search=Tim_Donaghy /info/en/?search=Lauren_Holtkamp /info/en/?search=Ferdinand_Pascual /info/en/?search=Joey_Crawford You can also find the current List of National Basketball Association_referees in Wikipedia. Unfortunately, such list does not exist for referees FIBA Europe and Euroleague. But I think it's a matter of time. It because this information is of interest to readers and fans of basketball. Note that the pages devoted to basketball / Olympic Games and other major tournaments, mandatory have the list of referees and countries they represent. See examples: /info/en/?search=List_of_National_Basketball_Association_referees /info/en/?search=Basketball_at_the_2016_Summer_Olympics /info/en/?search=Basketball_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics In addition, Oleg Latyshev mentioned in more than 100 Wikipedia article. And it is advisable that readers have information about this official. Plus, there are more than 20 introduce links to the page Olegs Latisevs from related articles that I made by myself, with the idea that Wikipedia content would be more correlated, as required by policy Wikipedia. And my last argument for why the article must be saved, it is a really high importance of this person in the modern national history. In particular, Latyshev is the first Basketball referee in the history of independent Latvia invited to FIBA Basketball World Cup (Turkey), 2010. Is the first Basketball referee in the history of independent Latvia invited to the Olympic Games (London), 2012. The only Basketball referee from the Northern Europe invited to FIBA Basketball World Cup (Spain) (in total, 38 referees from 28 states from five FIBA continental zones took part in this FIBA Basketball World Cup), 2014. And the only Basketball referee from the Baltic States (Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania) invited to the Olympic Games 2016 (Rio de Janeiro). Amatour82 ( talk) 15:45, 29 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello. This is a request for guidance: is there an assessment forum on Wiki when elements of an article have been removed with their peer-reviewed sources, albeit in a foreign language, for alleged libel and POV? I don't know what POV means. This concerns the controversy surrounding the dismantling of the Jarzębowski Museum and Library and the manner of the sale of Fawley Court in England. As the article now stands, there is no hint that there was a controversy/scandal over the decimation of the collections or how the property was sold over a period of time at a large 'discount'. It seems that the remover wished to sweep away any reference to lost Polish heritage on that site, which has been annotated by the NIMOZ journal and a chapter on Stanislaw Albrecht Radziwill in a publication by the University of Opole which talks about 'skandal'. Also removed was a reference in German ( University of Cologne) to the sale at Christie's in 2005 of a marble bust of the Roman Commodius (son of Marcus Aurelius) from the Jarzębowski collection. The remover told me to use [my blog] for such material. I do not have a blog! I found this highly patronising. Thank you for your time. Regards, -- Po Kadzieli ( talk) 10:00, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

Hello Piotruś, your help with TKS exceeded all my expectations, although mostly due to you and others. As for Stefan, he turns out to be a find, all because someone, who had known him, asked me where his grave was. He exemplifies the course of 20th c. history in one lifetime. He probably deserves a DYK. I have a picture of his name plaque on the grave, but uploading it does not seem to be a practice on en.Wiki. What do you think?

Piotrze, po zauważeniu umieszczonych przez Ciebie zastrzeżeń dopracowałem artykuł, uzupełniając źródła i rozszerzając jego treść tak, by spełnić warunek "notability". Potem usunąłem informację, wychodząc z założenia że art. spełnia kryteria. Jak widać uczyniłem to zbyt pochopnie (nie mam tak szerokiego doświadczenia jak Ty, ale się staram i wiele godzin swojego życia poświęciłem temu by dać jej i ludzkości coś od siebie), może nieco na skróty, jednak nie w sposób "stealthy" - bo przecież nic w Wiki nie ginie. Podstępu w moim działaniu nie było wcale, ale wygląda na to że poszedłem za bardzo na skróty. Czy było to powodem do zgłoszenia do usunięcia?

Na wydziale odkryte zostały hormony płciowe za co wprost przyznano Nobla, wiele innych osiągnięć, rozwijana jest współpraca międzynarodowa, powstają prototypy nowatorskich w skali świata urządzeń - nie wierzę, że warte jest to klawisza "delete".

Hi There,

The Teach For India page has seen some edits lately as outdated information needs to be updated. Per your notability concerns as cited as grounds for deletion, please kindly note the below evidence and feel free to reach out if you need more evidence for the notability criteria. There is quite a lot of media about Teach For India and the Wiki page needs to be edited to reflect the current organization.

Criteria A: "...please consider whether they have had any significant or demonstrable effects on culture, society, entertainment, athletics, economies, history, literature, science, or education." Evidence: Teach For India has significantly impacted the education sector. https://sipa.columbia.edu/sites/default/files/Teach_for_India_Final_Report_20Aug2012%20_TenPagesOnly_0.pdf http://www.huffingtonpost.in/entry/indian-teacher-surpasses-_b_8079042 http://www.huffingtonpost.in/teach-for-india/how-a-22-year-old-brought-hope-to-dozens-of-disadvantaged-childr/ Winner: Inclusive India Awards ICICI Foundation and CNBC-TV18, 2012 Winner: 2012 Innovation for India Awards, Marico Innovation Foundation, 2012 Teach For India was awarded an “Innovation for India Award” for positively impacting lives through innovation in the education sector. Winner: Best NGO Award, National Awards for Excellence in CSR and Sustainability - World Education Congress, 2015, Teach For India commemorated for contribution to reshaping India’s education landscape and working closely to promote CSR efforts across the country.

Criteria B: "A company, corporation, organization, school, team, religion, group, product, or service is notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in secondary sources. The depth of coverage of the subject by the source must be considered. If the depth of coverage is not substantial, then multiple[2] independent sources should be cited to establish notability."

Hi Piotrus, I have reverted this article to a previous version before the overly promotional, probable copyvio from [http://america.pink/reach-teach-recruiting_3692848.html here] was added (in December 2012!). In the process your prod has obviously been removed. I don't think there is anything in the older version which addresses your reason for deleting and I share your concerns about notability. If you want to have a look at it now you could re-add the prod as I am not contesting it in any way, or take it to AfD. Sarahj2107 ( talk) 10:09, 2 September 2016 (UTC)

I have reviewed the various articles re: Polish population transfers(1939-50) on Wikipedia. Piotrus the statistical information is a mess, total confusion that does not agree to official Polish figures or the population balance. I do not have the time or patience to clean up this disaster by myself. I try to avoid wasting my time on Wikipedia blogging about trivia and live a life in the real world. Yesterday I went with out the family to see Train to Busan and afterwords we went to Koreatown, Manhattan for bubble tea. Piotrus IMO getting involved in lengthy blogging on Wikipedia is like getting on that Train to Busan. Regards-- Woogie10w ( talk) 12:34, 30 August 2016 (UTC)

As editors of Wikipedia we cannot analyze the population of Germany, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Austria, Romania, Hungary, Yugoslavia and Bulgaria simultaneously from 1939-1947. By analyze I mean -Population in 1939, add births, less natural deaths, less military deaths, add or subtract net population transfers and subtract population in 1947, the balance equals civilian war related deaths. In 2016 the politicians in Berlin, Warsaw, Moscow and Belgrade want to inflate civilian losses and enhance their suffering during the war by publishing inflated war losses. Many historians regurgitate this official statistical data. Back in 1951 a professional demographer Gregory Frumkin was the author of Population Changes in Europe Since 1939 What is needed is a professional academic study that updates the work of Frumkin. This would set the set the record straight and settle the issue of wartime civilian population losses. Off Wiki I have done work on this topic that I cannot discuss here.-- Woogie10w ( talk) 13:40, 4 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi Piotr

Im doing a research project for my work, and Ive been looking to see if anyone has done any work on the difficulties of approaching new possible GLAM partners.

Regarding your note on the COSIRES conference web page. It is certainly not a for-profit pseudo conference, which you could easily have figures out by checking the conference proceedings published in an Elsevier journal which are clearly cited on the page (even if you do not have access to all the articles, the table of contents and abstracts are available to anybody).

Regarding notability, the research field has probably 1000-2000 people worldwide working on this, because it is an important scientific background for the semiconductor and nuclear industries. Admittedly this was not very clear in the article, so I modified it now with this kind of motivation.

Did you know?

Did you know that you can easily re-arrange columns and rows in the visual editor?

Select a cell in the column or row that you want to move. Click the arrow at the start of that row or column to open the dropdown menu (shown). Choose either "Move before" or "Move after" to move the column, or "Move above" or "Move below" to move the row.

You can read and help translate the user guide, which has more information about how to use the visual editor.

Since the last newsletter, the VisualEditor Team has mainly worked on a new wikitext editor. They have also released some small features and the new map editing tool. Their workboard is available in Phabricator. You can find links to the list of work finished each week at mw:VisualEditor/Weekly triage meetings. Their current priorities are fixing bugs, releasing the 2017 wikitext editor as a beta feature, and improving language support.

Recent changes

• You can now set text as small or big. [8]
• Invisible templates have been shown as a puzzle icon. Now, the name of the invisible template is displayed next to the puzzle icon. [9] A similar feature will display the first part of hidden HTML comments. [10]
• Categories are displayed at the bottom of each page. If you click on the categories, the dialog for editing categories will open. [11]
• At many wikis, you can now add maps to pages. Go to the Insert menu and choose the "Maps" item. The Discovery department are adding more features to this area, like geoshapes. You can read more on MediaWiki.org. [12]
• The "Save" button now says "Save page" when you create a page, and "Save changes" when you change an existing page. [13] In the future, the "Save page" button will say "Publish page". This will affect both the visual and wikitext editing systems. More information is available on Meta.
• Image galleries now use a visual mode for editing. You can see thumbnails of the images, add new files, remove unwanted images, rearrange the images by dragging and dropping, and add captions for each image. Use the "Options" tab to set the gallery's display mode, image sizes, and add a title for the gallery. [14]

Future changes

The visual editor will be offered to all editors at the remaining 10 "Phase 6" Wikipedias during the next month. The developers want to know whether typing in your language feels natural in the visual editor. Please post your comments and the language(s) that you tested at the feedback thread on mediawiki.org. This will affect several languages, including Thai, Burmese and Aramaic.

The team is working on a modern wikitext editor. The 2017 wikitext editor will look like the visual editor and be able to use the citoid service and other modern tools. This new editing system may become available as a Beta Feature on desktop devices in October 2016. You can read about this project in a general status update on the Wikimedia mailing list.

Let's work together

Do you teach new editors how to use the visual editor? Did you help set up the Citoid automatic reference feature for your wiki? Have you written or imported TemplateData for your most important citation templates? Would you be willing to help new editors and small communities with the visual editor? Please sign up for the new VisualEditor Community Taskforce.

Wikipedia Asian Month

Thanks for partipating Wikipedia Asian Month last year, and I hope you enjoy it. Last year, more than 7,000 articles contribute to Wikipedia in 43 languages in Wikipedia Asian Month, making us one of the largest event on Wikipedia. We will organize this event again in upcoming November, and would like to invite you join us again.

This year, we are lowering down the standards that you only need to create 4 (Four) articles to receive a postcard (new design), and articles only need to be more than 3,000 bytes and 300 words. We are also improving our postcard sending process, e.g. making the postcards right now, and collecting the address after the event ends without waiting other languges.

Wikipedians who create the most articles on each Wikipedia will be honored as "Wikipedia Asian Ambassadors". We will send you both digital copy, and a paper copy of the Ambassador certificate.

Hi, can I interest you in this or a 1000 Challenge for Poland?♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:42, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

I believe you deleted the /MarketResearch.com page incorrectly, I would appreciate it being re-instated as soon as possible ....

According to Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement, “notable” means "worthy of being noted" or "attracting notice." MarketResearch.com has attracted the notice of multiple independent sources that have large audiences. For examples, read on:

• EContent Magazine is an independent source with a national audience. In 2007, MarketResearch.com made the EContent 100 List as one of the top 100 digital content companies, a recognition given to the leading 100 companies in the digital content industry. This is not simply a directory listing like the yellow pages. Being recognized as a top company by a credible source underscores MarketResearch.com’s notability. http://www.econtentmag.com/Articles/Editorial/Feature/2007-EContent-100-List-40160.htm?PageNum=3 • In 2008, MarketResearch.com made the SmartCEO Future 50 List as one of the 50 fastest growing companies in the Washington, DC area. Companies recognized by The Future 50 are “chosen based on a three-year average of employee and revenue growth.” Again, this source is not simply a directory listing given to every company like the yellow pages. This source points directly to MarketResearch.com’s notability. http://www.smartceo.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/BCEO.F50.Past_.Winners.14.pdf • From 2007 through 2010, MarketResearch.com made the Inc. 5000 list of fastest growing private companies in the US. This kind of recognition shows that MarketResearch.com has attracted notice from credible, independent national publications with broad reach. http://www.inc.com/profile/marketresearchcom • Information Today published a full article about MarketResearch.com’s acquisition of Profound. Information Today is an independent source with a national audience within the library, information & knowledge management industry. Please note this article is not a press release. http://newsbreaks.infotoday.com/nbReader.asp?ArticleId=36824 • Research Information is a UK-based magazine with an international audience, which devoted a full article to news regarding MarketResearch.com. https://www.researchinformation.info/news/simba-information-and-education-market-research-merge?news_id=1312

MarketResearch.com was mentioned in multiple articles from outside sources regarding the acquisition of the Freedonia Group. - http://www.plasticsnews.com/article/20160203/NEWS/160209935/marketresearch-com-acquires-freedonia-group - http://www.usglassmag.com/2016/02/marketresearch-com-acquires-the-freedonia-group/ - http://www.mrweb.com/drno/news22161.htm - http://www.quirks.com/articles/research-industry-news-april-2016\ - http://www.crainscleveland.com/article/20160202/NEWS/160209944/marketresearch-com-acquires-the-freedonia-group

Furthermore, Wikipedia’s notability definition states, “Large organizations and their products are likely to have more readily available verifiable information from reliable sources that provide evidence of notability. However, smaller organizations and their products can be notable, just as individuals can be notable. Arbitrary standards should not be used to create a bias favoring larger organizations or their products. “

Hi Piotrus, thank you for your edits to this article. I've moved it back to the original title which I had checked at Google Books before selecting it. Essentially there are no hits at all for "Wałbrzyskie Mountains" whereas there were 15 hits for "Waldenburg Mountains", so it seems as though that is the usual English name. Quite why, I don't know, but that's languages for you! -- Bermicourt ( talk) 17:22, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

Hello Piotrus,

I am Bowen Yu, a Ph.D. student from GroupLens Research at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. Currently, we are undertaking a study about turnover in WikiProjects within Wikipedia. We are trying to understand the effects of member turnovers on the WikiProject group, in terms of the group performance and member interaction, with a purpose of learning how to build successful online communities in future.

I would like to invite you for an interview if you are interested in our study and willing to share your experience with us. The interview will be about 30 - 45 minutes via either Skype or Google Hangout. You will receive a $10 gift card as compensation afterwards.

You can reach me at bowen@cs.umn.edu if you are interested or have any questions.

WikiProject Good Articles's 2016-2017 GA Cup Greetings, all! We would like to announce the start of the 4th GA Cup, a competition that seeks to encourage the reviewing of Good article nominations! Thus far, there have been three GA Cups, which were successful in reaching our goals of significantly reducing the traditionally long queue at GAN, so we're doing it again. Currently, there are over 400 nominations listed. We hope that we can again make an impact this time. The 4th GA Cup will begin on November 1, 2016. Four rounds are currently scheduled (which will bring the competition to a close on February 28, 2017), but this may change based on participant numbers. We may take a break in December for the holidays, depending on the results of a poll of our participants taken shortly after the competition begins. The sign-up and submissions process will remain the same, as will the scoring. Sign-ups for the upcoming competition are currently open and will close on November 14, 2016. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors, so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the judges. Cheers from 3family6, Figureskatingfan, Jaguar, MrWooHoo, and Zwerg Nase. We apologize for the delay in sending out this message until after the competition has started. Thank you to Krishna Chaitanya Velaga for aiding in getting this message out. To subscribe or unsubscribe to future GA Cup newsletters, please add or remove your name to our mailing list. If you are a participant, you will be on the mailing list no matter what as this is the easiest way to communicate between all participants.

Hi Piotrus. I noticed you've flagged ShieldsUp for notability. I see that you previously flagged it for notability, to which I added 5 references (lifehacker, routersecurity.org, howtogeek, computerworld and makeuseof). I think those together paint a picture of its general use, usefulness and notability in the industry. (I would note that it doesn't have a high profile outside of the network testing community, but then I wouldn't expect it to.) Has something changed for the notability of it to be questioned?

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. -- MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 21:09, 7 November 2016 (UTC)

Hello Piotrus, The Article has already been available when it comes to Polish version of Wikipedia. Due to many changes over the past years, it had to be changed. Therefore now the Polish version of the article is being improved and will appear in the upcoming days. So your argument about Gregoire Nitot being some CEO of a mid-size company with a minor business award is irrational, because the article has already been on Wikipedia. Could you please withold the delation process, and point out to me what should I do to improve the article for it to be alive. I would be very grateful for your suggestions.

Hi Piotrus, I am replying to a proposed deletion you left on my article, “Jan-Vincent Velazco”. This is the first article I've ever written on Wikipedia, I also have been having some trouble using the Wikitext formatting to Wikipedia standards, especially with regards to citing my sources and external links. Like the other users here, I have used what I believe to be reputable sources, such as Tama Drum Company, GMA News, Classic Rock Magazine/Teamrock, and now I can also add IMDB to my sources which is new, yet I am still getting notifications that my sources aren't noteworthy enough. I am very new to editing Wikipedia and I would appreciate it if I could get some better and helpful advice on improving the article so that it can avoid being deleted in the future. The links provided in the notification just aren't making it clear to me what I need to improve. Many thanks and hoping for your consideration and help.

Hi. I agree that the entry for PC Advisor hasn't been updated for quite a while but I disagree that it should be deleted from Wikipedia or that is is a "minor publication that has never risen to the limelight of notability".

PC Advisor has been recognised by Neilsen Online as "the world's number 1 technology magazine website for UK audience" and is the seventh most read magazine website for UK audience in any category.

PC Advisor is the #2 most visited website in the Hitwise IT MEdia category, and has 15m unique visitors a month, generating 27m page views each month. Its monthly revenues are in excess of $600,000/month.

It is part of IDG, the world's leading IT media, events and research company. So I contest that it is a "minor publication that has never risen to the limelight of notability". Its sister title in the US is PCWorld.com, and is part of that large family of magazines and websites worldwise.

Thanks for your consideration. We would be happy to update the entry if you think it merits inclusion.

I am trying to fix up the article on Joseph Rotblat. The article says he was 'a self-described "Pole with a British passport"'. The source says:

Lech Wałęsa uważany jest zwykle za jedynego Polaka, który otrzymał Pokojową Nagrodę Nobla. Nie jest to do końca prawdą, gdyż w 1995 r. nagrodę tę (wspólnie z założoną przez siebie organizacją) dostał Józef Rotblat - urodzony w 1908 r. w Łodzi lub w Warszawie i mieszkający od 1939 r. w Wielkiej Brytanii fizyk i radiobiolog żydowskiego pochodzenia, założyciel i przewodniczący pacyfistycznego ruchu naukowców „Pugwash”, nazwanego tak od miejscowości w Kanadzie, w której amerykańscy i radzieccy naukowcy utworzyli w 1955 r. tę organizację. Na rzecz tezy, że Rottblat był polskim laureatem Pokojowej Nagrody Nobla przemawia fakt, że do końca życia (zmarł w 2005 r.) Józef Rottblat świetne mówił po polsku, podkreślał swoje związki z Polską – akcentując, że jest Polakiem z brytyjskim paszportem… i nie znosił, gdy jego imię pisano lub wymawiano jako Joseph – a nie po prostu Józef. Zostawmy jednak – przynajmniej na razie – w spokoju Józefa Rottblata i jego organizację – rzecz jest o Lechu Wałęsie.

Hello, Piotrus:

Looking at your user page and all the projects and articles in which you are engaged, I'm hesitant to impose on your time, but ... here goes. In 2015 you were among the first (if not the first) to flag an article for the law firm of Steptoe & Johnson PLLC for deletion. The article, written by a firm employee, failed on just about all counts to conform to Wikipedia's standards for notability and documentation. As part of my job for a small publishing firm, I've been assigned the task of rewriting the article in compliance with Wikipedia's requirements. User crpytic mentioned you in connection with the earlier deletion discussion. If you can spare the time, I'd be grateful if you'd look quickly at what I've begun and advise me if I'm on the right track. A very preliminary draft is in my user sandbox at /info/en/?search=User:JoeE_PPC_PubAssist/sandbox; a discussion of what I hope to achieve is my sandbox talk page. If you can provide just a quick impression, that would be great: "right track" or "blow it up again and start over"? Thanks very much for any time you can spare.

@ Piotrus: I appreciate your time and pointers to NOCORP & YELLOWPAGES. We gave it a good shot. I've discussed your evaluation with my employer and, although she had been hopeful, I've explained that Wikipedia's requirements for notability are pretty stringent, especially for corporate entities. I defer to your experience in the matter and I expect that we will abandon the effort with "no hard feelings."

Hi User:Piotrus, this article meets the primary criteria as HB Reavis is the subject of significant coverage in the following independent secondary sources:

• The Wall Street Journal
• Property Week (paywall)
• Construction News
• The Slovak Spectator
• Europa Property
• Eurobuild CEE

In the interests of better meeting en.wikipedia standards, I've improved the article by removing content about as yet incomplete projects and content that was referenced in non-English sources.

Ultimately, HB Reavis has developed significant buildings in major European cities. This makes the article relevant to a general audience who are interested in the built environment. Manc1234 ( talk) 15:31, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

---

As requested here is the content from the Wall Street Journal:

 Wells Fargo settled on its new building in London’s main financial district after a two-year search that included other locations, including Canary Wharf.
 
 At first the bank was open to leasing or buying the 10-story building, named 33 Central, from Slovak developer HB Reavis, but late last year it was clear the preference was to buy, the person familiar with the discussions said.
 
 Meanwhile, executives at HB Reavis are being philosophical about the price decline and the weaker currency. While the value of the Luxembourg-based developer’s U.K. assets were hurt by Brexit, most of its assets are in Central Europe, where the market has stayed strong.
 
 “This would have been a great year for us. With Brexit it’ll be a good year,” said Radim Římánek, who is on the board of directors at HB Reavis.

HB Reavis has a public arm but it seems to be tied to funding rather than being an actual flotation.

Hello Piotrus. Speedy deletion work is important and I do appreciate the effort. I would just ask that you please review the criteria carefully because accuracy is also important. On that issue, I have declined your speedy deletion nomination of CoreCluster as an article that does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the topic under CSD A7. That criterion did not apply because software is not within the scope of A7, so it should never be nominated for speedy deletion regardless of credible claim of significance.

Hi! Thanks for the information regarding DYK and Talk pages. I have shied away from doing DYKs, as I was not too sure how to word the hook when doing them. I have read the links you provided, and will probably be bolder and attempt one. I hope it will be OK if I approach you for help if needed. Thank you. Kaayay ( talk) 07:32, 13 December 2016 (UTC)

On 1 January 2017, WikiCup 2017 (the 10th Annual WikiCup) will begin. This year we are trying something a little different – monetary prizes.

For the WC2017 the prizes will be as follows (amounts are based in US$ and will be awarded in the form of an online Amazon gift certificate):

• First place – $200
• Second & Third place – $50 each
• Category prizes – $25 per category (which will be limited to FA, FL, FP, GA, and DYK for 2017). Winning a category prize does not require making it to the final round.

Note: Monetary prizes are a one-year experiment for 2017 and may or may not be continued in the future. In order to be eligible to receive any of the prizes above, the competing Wikipedia account must have a valid/active email address.

After two years as a WikiCup judge, Figureskatingfan is stepping down. We thank her for her contributions as a WikiCup judge. We are pleased to announce that our newest judge is two-time WikiCup champion Cwmhiraeth.

The judges for the 2017 WikiCup are Godot13 ( talk · contribs · email), Cwmhiraeth ( talk · contribs), and Sturmvogel 66 ( talk · contribs · email).

Signups are open now and will remain open until 5 February 2017. You can sign up here.

FYI I have contested your prod of Olsson Frank Weeda Terman Matz PC and I have improved the scope and coverage and citing in the article. The firm isn't widely known, but it's an important player in the DC agriculture and nutrition world and it merits an article here. Wasted Time R ( talk) 13:03, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

The subject article was PRODed by yourself - it has been restored as a contested PROD. You may wish to consider WP:AfD in the light of this result. (PROD was 2 years ago...) Ronhjones   ^(Talk) 01:32, 15 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi -

Can you please remove the deletion consideration on this article as I believe I've addressed the issues that were originally flagged for this article:

1) I've added content to the original brief article that had previously been created by a fan 2) I've added many links to other wikipedia pages were relevent 3) I've added external sources links for reference

Please let me know if this is insufficient - this is my first contribution editing a Wikipedia article.

Thanks, appreciate your help. Falconwhit ( talk) 00:54, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I am replying to a proposed deletion you left on my article, "Jonathan McHugh". Since this is the first article I've ever written on Wikipedia, I have been having trouble using the Wikitext formatting to Wikipedia standards, particularly with citing my sources and creating external links. I have used what I believe to be reputable sources, such as IMDb and GrammyPro.com, yet I am still being battered with notifications that my sources aren't noteworthy enough. My employer, who asked me to create this article for him, is definitely recognized as a noteworthy person in IMDb given the number of projects he has worked on, and yet the proposed deletion is in regards to the article not meeting notability guidelines. This is obviously very frustrating for me, as again, I am very new to editing within Wikipedia, and I would find it extremely helpful if I could get some better advice on improving the article so that it can avoid being deleted in the future. The links provided in the notification just aren't making it clear to me what I need to improve. If I don't hear from you before Nov. 1st, I will remove the notification for proposed deletion in order to keep the article up.

10/27/2016: I'm starting to see your point. Would it be better if I placed IMDb as an external link? I am having trouble differentiating the two. Also, I'm still confused as to the notability guidelines—this is someone who is linked to multiple other published Wiki articles, as someone who has worked on multiple projects. Would it be better to create a filmography section? Are music supervisors generally not candidates for Wikipedia articles?
