Speedy Deletes

edit

You keep adding the speedy delete tags to articles, but they don't fit the criteria one bit.--Yankees10 17:04, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

What particular articles are you referring to? AusLondonder (talk) 17:04, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
Without speaking for the OP, I would say that this PROD this PROD is problematic. You claim there are no references, which is absolutely false. What due diligence did you perform to arrive at the conclusion that the subject doesn't meet the GNG? This PROD was supported with a nonsensical rationale, "No credible reason for existence". Your speedy delete nom of Frank Pelzman is improper. You nominated the subject under A7, claiming that there's no credible claim of significance. If the subject is the mayor of a town, it is A) plausible for this to happen and B) reasonable that being mayor might make you notable. Please read Wikipedia:Credible claim of significance. With only 500+ edits under your belt, I have to strongly urge you to cool it with the deletion nominations and get some more experience with Wikipedia guidelines first. We're in no hurry to delete articles and your overzealousness is putting potentially useful articles at risk. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:09, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
In the first case I did not claim there was no sources. I do not believe being a Mayor of a local town is a credible claim to significance, as per WP:POLITICIAN. Nor do I believe a creek has any credible reason for an article. I don't accept I'm putting articles at risk by nominating them. Nice to meet you too, by the way. AusLondonder (talk) 19:14, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
In the first example I used the wrong diff. My mistake. Fixed above or see here. Nextly, you are confusing notability for "a credible claim of significance". For speedy deletions, we're only trying to figure out if there is a claim of significance. "Mayor" is a claim of significance. That doesn't mean every Mayor is notable, and this guy may not make the cut down the road. "Joe Smith is a writer" doesn't claim any significance. "Joe Smith is a writer who has published ten books on mustaches" claims significance. Notability is a much higher standard. I hope this helps. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:25, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

An article that has been proposed for deletion or nominated for deletion cannot be re-prodded

edit

I have removed the {{prod}} tag from North Fork Brewery, which you proposed for deletion, because its deletion has previously been contested or viewed as controversial. Proposed deletion is not for controversial deletions. For this reason, proposed deletion is disallowed on articles that have previously been de-{{prod}}ed, even by the article creator, or which have previously been listed on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article, but feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! —C.Fred (talk) 18:48, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Could you please explain...

edit

You applied a {{prod}} to Robert Rennie. Rennie was a General, and, as per WP:SOLDIER, Generals are almost always considered inherently notable.

I wonder if you could explain why you think Rennie should be an exception to this convention? Geo Swan (talk) 19:00, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

WP:SOLDIER is an essay. The article has very few sources. But I'll remove the PROD for now.AusLondonder (talk) 19:02, 2 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

  Hi AusLondonder. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Zutto.../Last Minute/Walk, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. This article does not meet the A9 criteria as the recording artist has an article. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Thanks!

OK, noted. I do apologise. AusLondonder (talk) 16:37, 3 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Lost State Records

edit
 

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Lost State Records, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising,  . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is AusLondonder's battleground conduct. Thank you. Mellowed Fillmore (talk) 17:04, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

 
You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

This block is the result of multiple incidents that were cited at the WP:ANI discussion: you have to comment on contributions, not contributors. Continued incivility will result in longer blocks, perhaps culminating in an indefinite block. Nyttend (talk) 17:41, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

User:Nyttend - other users commented on me first, accusing me of having an agenda and acting in bad faith, not to mention the swearing and abuse. I cannot believe this. AusLondonder (talk) 20:51, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
This must be the worst and most selective incident of selective and biased enforcement of all time. AusLondonder (talk) 20:57, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
If you think that others have also acted problematically, give me your evidence and I'll investigate it. The point is that you've infringed on our civility policy repeatedly and, as far as I can tell, unrepentantly, and as I already noted, you need to take this as a shot across the bow. Nyttend (talk) 23:19, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
User:Nyttend Look here - the admin closed as not abusive enough - what is it I did?

1.This user undid my edit, with an edit summary 'no I don't think so' which seems to breach WP:ESDONTS namely don't 'Make snide comments' or 'Be aggressive' 2.I tried to discuss at User talk:Cassianto but the user was again rather condescending and seemed to be ganging up on me with other users he already knows 3.When discussion began on at Talk:Moors murders, I simply put 'I think it is notable enough for a single line' - however, Cassianto replied 'Then you need to look up the definition of "notable", clearly.' (Ignoring WP:NNC) I believe this breaches WP:CIVIL - when I indicated the editor should read WP:CIVIL they replied 'I did once, and I vowed never to read it again' 4.It is breathtaking the way some editors feel policies don't apply to them. I was not rude to the editor, but I was treated in a condescending and arrogant manner over a very minor matter

The user then preceded to launch a very abusive and malicious attack on me. He linked my 710 contributions [166] and entirely falsely wrote 'Not so ridiculous when you look at his contributions which seem to be all geared around the May elections. This user seems to be on a campaign trial on behalf of UKIP'. This is called blatantly misleading other editors, surely in violation of policies such as WP:AGF, WP:BITE, WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA. I have nothing to do with UKIP. I am not a member of any political party. I am not enrolled to vote in the United Kingdom. So these are ludicrous allegations. I have created 21 pages, 16 non-related to the elections. Articles I have created such as Endorsements in the United Kingdom general election, 2015 are very important and been widely edited and viewed. I have also created articles such as United Kingdom general election, 2015 (Wales) in accordance with precedent. I have worked hard on the project for good and in good faith. Examples: List of European Union member states by GDP growth and Mr Galloway Goes to Washington. I have successfully nominated dozens of articles for speedy deletion. As a new editor, I am deeply upset by how hard it is to edit this site without abuse and being treated like a moron (WP:BITE). It certainly is not encouraging for those wanting to make a difference in good faith. Nothing at WP:SPA points to me. 5.The editor has breached multiple policies.

Editor still going. He has written now 'What makes you think I give a fuck about your political leanings?' (despite questioning them) and removed the ANI notification remarking 'what a waste of time'. What is the point of WP:CIVIL, WP:AGF, WP:NPA, WP:BITE?

What did I say that was uncivil? Mellowed Fillmore said 'It is my view that AusLondonder is clearly not here to build an encyclopedia. He is likely to remain a problematic editor and I'm not sure that any more patience needs to be shown' - yet I have created 27 pages including Endorsements in the United Kingdom general election, 2015 and List of European Union member states by GDP growth. How can they possibly say that with your agreement? I will address each other point at the ANI if you wish. AusLondonder (talk) 23:38, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

So it's not abusive to say 'fucking', 'fuck', 'bullshit', accuse of WP:SPA accuse of breaching WP:SPA but what I did deserves a ban? Look here The admin said this abuse did not even deserve a warning - yet my conduct deserve a block this is utterly unbelievable. AusLondonder (talk) 23:52, 7 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
User:Nyttend...AusLondonder (talk) 07:07, 11 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
For one thing, please read the forum-shopping page: I will not attempt to over-rule a decision at a closed discussion, especially one so recent. Meanwhile, linking your contributions and using them as a basis for saying "He seems to be on a pro-ukip campaign" is not a problem of the sort: maybe it's inaccurate, but unless it's a long-term pattern of behavior (e.g. he's harassing you long-term), it's not something deserving sanctions. The problems that led me to block you are not a matter of individual words; it's behavior patterns, with things like ad homines together with what looks to me like a battleground approach. Your comments here reinforce that: you need to stop beating the dead horse of "Everybody else is hating on me" and stop resuscitating arguments that have already been closed. If you continue spending this much space, and wasting this much time for other people, you'll soon be ignored at best. Nyttend (talk) 13:35, 11 May 2015 (UTC)Reply
But wasn't it your decision User:Nyttend? Can I appeal an expired block? I only even responded to much more abusive attacks, I never attacked anyone else first. Editors accused me of being a sock, or WP:SPA with no evidence, in contravention of policy. I have never sought to engaged in battleground behaviour. I also want to 'resuscitate' as I feel the block besmirches my record and was deeply unfair. AusLondonder (talk) 03:36, 12 May 2015 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Nikolaos Nikolopoulos, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Achaia.

Draft:Murder of Jo Cox

edit

Hey :)

I'd just like to point out a few things regarding the draft you just created:

  • Under British English (which should apply given it's a British event), an assassination has to have a political motive. Since a motive is not yet known, this cannot be an assassination. (I note that you have since renamed the article from me starting to write this, but the infobox still says asssassination).
  • It's not a murder until it's proven as such in a court of law - there's some discussion on Talk:Jo Cox about this. In the UK, Sub Judice applies now since an arrest has been made, which has potential implications for those reporting on the event in the UK, which we both are.
  • You've named the alleged perpetrator of an unproven crime - I'd like to point you int the direction of WP:BLPCRIME

I'm not disagreeing with splitting it into a new article, just please be careful with this!

Nomination of Murder of Jo Cox for deletion

edit
 

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Murder of Jo Cox 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/Murder of Jo Cox 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. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 06:58, 17 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

You waited until less eyes were on the article to remove a massive section which you know had community support. You arbitrarily chose some nations as "involved" - not French neighbours such as the Netherlands or the United Kingdom. You left the United States in unsurprisingly. The revert summary was describing your behaviour not you as a person or you as an editor. I have disputed your arbitrary and pointy removal now should be the time to discuss.

Little late in writing this but wanted to say that I hope there aren't any hard feelings about Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Reactions_to_the_2016_Orlando_nightclub_shooting. Hope you know that it has nothing to do with animus toward the LGBTQ community or anything. I just feel that many of the news-related articles are TOOSOON but it's becoming clear I'm in the minority with that opinion (e.g., Talk:2016_shooting_of_Baton_Rouge_police_officers#Way_too_soon). I'm recalibrating my perceptions of the community norm based on the feedback in the AFD.

Asian 10,000 Challenge invite

edit

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Asia/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge and Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/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 South East Asia, Japan/China or India 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. At some stage we hope to run some contests to benefit Asian content, a destubathon perhaps, aimed at reducing the stub count would be a good place to start, based on the current Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon which has produced near 200 articles in just three days. If you would like to see this happening for Asia, and see potential in this attracting more interest and editors for the country/countries you work on please sign up and being contributing to the challenge! This is a way we can target every country of Asia, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant!

Yes because that is where it started. Events as well as companies can move, but all started somewhere. There are cases where they move and even come back to its roots before ending.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

AusLondonder (block logactive blocksglobal blockscontribsdeleted contribsfilter logcreation logchange block settingsunblockcheckuser (log))


Request reason:

I'm not sure whether this is a mistake or not. I'm a regular editor in good-standing. Absolutely no complaint was made on any forum by any editor about my conduct. I received no warning or discussion about the block, as is generally the accepted precedent per WP:BEFOREBLOCK and I received zero notification or explanation of the block from the admin, in breach of WP:EXPLAINBLOCK. That policy states "The community expects that blocks will be made with good reasons only, based upon reviewable evidence and reasonable judgment" and "Administrators must supply a clear and specific block reason that indicates why a user was blocked...Administrators should notify users when blocking them by leaving a message on their user talk page". The admin, in their blocking summary, apart from threatening me with an indefinite block, stated the reason was "to stop series of edits flouting WP:ENGVAR". However, none of my edits have been reverted, even by the blocking admin and I simply changed spelling to, for example, New Zealand English on Suburbs of Nelson per WP:TIES which states "an article on a topic that has strong ties to a particular English-speaking nation should use the (formal, not colloquial) English of that nation". The admin has not engaged with me nor other editors since the block. Very happy to discuss any concerns with the reviewing admin.

Accept reason:

Bizarre block. No discussion, no warning, not even a block notification, even though AusLondoner's last edit was 16 hours before the block was applied. This was a very bad block. BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 12:25, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Wrong guideline in editsummary?

edit

Hi AusLondonder

I was just checking your contribs from yesterday[2] to see if I could find any trace of what might have prompted the block.

No sign of that, which makes the block look even more bizarre, but I did spot one small unimportant thing. Several of your edits which rightly corrected the spelling of International Labour Organization used an edit summary which included a link to WP:BRINT, which is a redirect to WP:Redirect#Bypass_redirects_in_navigational_templates. That clearly isn't what you meant, so I presume it was just a mistaken recollection of another shortcut.

Obviously, that small glitch in no way justifies any reproach, let alone an out-of-the-blue block ... but I just thought I'd point it out for future reference, in case someone gets antsy about it.

Hope this helps! If not, pls ignore.

Best wishes, --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 22:06, 4 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi BrownHairedGirl. Thanks for that and for your help the past few days. It has been most appreciated. Sorry for my delay in replying I've been super-busy off-wiki. You're right I wasn't using the most correct shortcut. I was meaning the part just below where WP:BRINT appears which says "Spelling errors and other mistakes should be corrected. Don't link to a misspelled redirect". When correcting spelling in similar circumstances in future do you have any advice on what I should say in the edit summary?

(ec)Hi AusLondonder
I was glad to be able to help. I saw your username pop up somewhere else, but with a strikeout line through it (I have a CSS setting which does that to blocked usernames), and went to investigate ... and just thought I'd not like that to be me!
I dunno if you have seen my reply to Wtmitchell's response at ANI: WP:ANI#Response_by_Wtmitchell. What I suggested there (in point #1) was that since you were correcting the spelling of a proper name, a better edit summary might have been as something like "correct spelling of proper name International Labour Organization".
But I'm sure there are other ways of doing it. Just check shortcuts afore using them! (I know, we all screw up on that one sometimes, and it's no biggie, unless you encounter an admin on a hair-trigger over a flakey internet connection).
Best wishes, --BrownHairedGirl (talk) • (contribs) 15:49, 5 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
Thankfully we have some competent admins around here! I thought what could I possibly have done to irritate this guy! I've seen your reply it certainly put in words exactly what I was thinking.

Glad that helped. And the ANI thread has been closed without any further action, which I think is a good outcome.

2017 Stockholm attack

edit

  In a recent edit to the page 2017 Stockholm attack, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.

For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to India, use Indian English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, or New Zealand, use the variety of English used there.

Proposed deletion of Enrique Guerrero Salom

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Proposed deletion of Abby Tomlinson

edit
 

The article Abby Tomlinson has been proposed for deletion. The proposed deletion notice added to the article should explain why.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Just FYI, another editor (not me) removed the word "false". I put it back in per longstanding consensus, but then it occurred to me that it's not proper to revert merely because of no consensus. So it's best if someone else (like you) puts that word back, given that I think it's overkill. Anyway, you wrote "???" in your edit summary, so I came here to explain. Cheers.

I have of course read the discussion in the archive, a discussion I took part in, and see no consensus for adding it (people who say they won't oppose it count as neutral in my book, and when looking at the rest I find more who oppose it than who support it...). - Tom | Thomas.W talk 10:10, 24 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Aaron Bastani

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Aaron Bastani, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for Deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discusion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

Use British English template

edit

Here you removed {{Use British English}} from Angers. While WP:TIES talks about which dialect should be used for new articles, my understanding of {{Use British English}}, based on its documentation, is that it's descriptive, not prescriptive. The article happens to be currently written in British English, and WP prefers that subsequent edits maintain consistency unless there is good reason to convert to another dialect (in this case, there isn't). The purpose of the template is to guide subsequent authors, and, at least in theory, the ENGVAR tool; this is an independent concept from WP:TIES. Did I miss something? David Brooks (talk) 02:14, 13 July 2017 (UTC)Reply

The Angers article currently uses a combination of American and British spelling, though. For example it uses "center" and -ize spelling. AusLondonder (talk) 09:57, 14 July 2017 (UTC)Reply
