Wikidata page deleted

edit

Hi Bencemac, Thank you for bringing the spam/advertising issue to my attention. I am actually not trying to advertise or sell a product, I am just trying to improve the representation of female philosophers on Wikidata and Wikipedia (a similar project on female scientists was undertaken by Emily Temple-Wood and Rosie Stephenson-Goodknight for which they were both awarded Wikipedian of the Year in 2016). Can you give me some advice as to how I could describe my project on my Wikidata page so that it will not simply be deleted and dismissed as advertising? - DiotimaLives (talk) 22:04, 11 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

IPBE

Hi Bencemac - if you could IPBE me on wikidata, that'd be fab. thx --Tagishsimon (talk) 08:21, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Tagishsimon: Let me know that if you do not need the right anymore. Bencemac (talk) 08:23, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
I will; but is there any issue with keeping it? I travel enough that it'd be a pain to keep losing an hour trying to get back into wikidata. --Tagishsimon (talk) 08:28, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply
Then global block IP exemption is what you are searching. :) Local solutions are not the best if the problem is global, in my opinion. Bencemac (talk) 08:37, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

DJ Felix

I've declined your speedy deletion for DJ Felix, which you nominated for speedy deletion as db-madeup. Please review WP:CSD#A11: people are not eligible for speedy deletion under this criterion. Captain Calm (talk) 09:18, 26 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Dear Captain Calm, it's cross-wiki spam, already removed from hiwiki. Could you please spare me some time and remove it? Thanks in advance! Bencemac (talk) 09:37, 26 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
It's not eligible for speedy deletion on grounds of zero notability or spam, but you can take it to WP:AFD if you think he doesn't meet notability guidelines. Captain Calm (talk) 09:39, 26 August 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi Bencemac! The thread you created at the Wikipedia:Teahouse, Edit-a-thon articles, has been archived because there was no discussion for a few days (usually at least two days, and sometimes four or more). You can still find the archived discussion here. If you have any additional questions that weren't answered then, please feel free to create a new thread.


The archival was done by Lowercase sigmabot III, and this notification was delivered by Muninnbot, both automated accounts. You can opt out of future notifications by placing {{bots|deny=Muninnbot}} here on your user talk page. Muninnbot (talk) 19:00, 27 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
