Request on 02:09:02, 19 January 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Justin Kelly
- Justin Kelly (talk · contribs)
Hi,
I am replying to your recent review of the Chiltern & District Football Association page that you decided to decline on the basis of
"113/114 references provided are simply routine coverage of the individual matches from the same newspaper, "Trove Newspapers." You need multiple reliable sources to establish notability. The article also needs some general cleanup."
I'am just letting you know that there is no actual Trove Newspaper, it is not an actual newspaper. If you check each published citation you will find that I have in fact supported this new page with 113/114 completely different published newspapers articles that have been scanned and saved on the Australian Government National Library website - "Trove"nat https://trove.nla.gov.au/about which is a heap more citations than almost all Australian Rules Football pages that I have checked out. Also what does general clean mean, can you please be specific as to what needs cleaning up. Thanks, Justin Kelly.
Justin J. Kelly (talk) 02:09, 19 January 2021 (UTC)
- @Justin Kelly: Yes, you are correct. I am sorry for overlooking that, and I thank you for kindly correcting me.
- By cleanup, there are a few issues. First, while the references are not all from the same source as I had thought, there are an awful lot of them. Ever seen this article? There is a such thing as too many citations, for instance, a citation for every single year and every number of teams. Are all of them necessary? Now, the answer may be yes, but I suggest you look over them. Then, in the "Participating Clubs section," take "Chiltern" for example: You list out the years that they were in the club as:
1912, 1913, 1915, 1919, 1920, 1922, 1924, 1925, 1926, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932, 1933, 1934, 1935, 1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1940, 1945, 1946, 1947, 1948, 1949, 1950, 1951, 1952, 1953
. Is every year necessary to be listed out? Even if they were all necessary, couldn't you have done something like this: "1912–1913, 1915, 1919–1920, 1922, 1924–1940, 1945–1953" just to condense it a bit. Also, the first sentence is "Chiltern & District Football Association The Chiltern & District Football Association was first established in..." Where the title doesn't need to be repeated. The lead section also ends in "...". Is that a mistake, or is there more to say? If the latter is true, just say it. In the final sentence of the History section, you end in an (!), which isn't really encyclopediac. Another thing is to make sure that all citations are AFTER the period at the end of the sentence, not before them.
- If you tidy those things up, go ahead and resubmit so someone can take a look at it again. If you need any help, there's always plenty of friendly people at the Teahouse or you can just ask me. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 13:59, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Gareth Delany
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 Draft:Gareth Delany, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
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".

young people
When you encounter a draft where a young person discloses personal information, especially if they give their age, please don't just reject or decline it. They don't realize how dangerous it can be to do this. Please notify me or another administrator, preferably by email, or by a carefully worded message on their talk page, so the material can be removed to protect them from their own inexperience. If the person is apparently younger than 12 or 13, whether its on a draft or user page, notify off-wiki the oversight team, or an oversighter (such as myself) by any of the methods at WP:OVERSIGHT without posting anything on-wiki. I try to screen all incoming drafts for this, but I will miss some. DGG ( talk ) 01:50, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
- DGG, I'm terribly sorry for overlooking that. With the monotony of going through the drafts, I forgot to keep an eye open for that. Thank you very much for reminding me and I will be more attentive in the future. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 02:07, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
Aleem
Hello,
You recently declined a submission by the name of Aleem Zafar. I would like to know if you can edit the page in your own words as well? Or if you can guide me through what does it shows promotional?
Any help would be greatly regarded xx ❤️ Kiranin69 (talk) 02:27, 14 February 2021 (UTC)
- Kiranin69, consider the sentence: "Aleem’s chocolate boy look has always made his fans go crazy after him." This sentence seems to contain more opinion than fact, wouldn't you agree? I would suggest that you scan through this draft and remove any statements that are pure opinion or replace them with a fact that is backed up by reliable sources. I think this draft has a chance, but you have to look over it to ensure a neutral point of view. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 20:38, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

How I can insert 2 images in an infobox.--General electric p30ch (talk) 19:23, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

DO NOT go into the editor here and copy that, it won't work then, copy what you see right now. When you paste it, click the blue "Use as plain text" button. I can also show you how to make the images appear side-by-side instead of one on top of the other. Tell me if that works for you. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 21:15, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

- General electric p30ch, I have marked Draft: CSX Train Symbols for speedy deletion, but Draft: CSX Dispatcher Desk cannot be deleted under G7 as you are not the original author, and the creator would need to be the one to nominate it for deletion. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me)

- General electric p30ch, that draft could not be deleted under G7 as you are not the author. The user who created this draft is Locomotive 0-4-0 t, so they would need to nominate it for deletion, not you.

I did not copy pasted the article. I just took it as a reference and re-wrote in my words, I would still like to continue with the draft and improve it with time.

The suffix "-oid"
I note that you have stated that you realise that "the Earth isn't an oblate spheroid, but rather a close approximation of one".
Since the suffix "-oid" means (to quote) ' “resembling,” “like,” used in the formation of adjectives and nouns (and often implying an incomplete or imperfect resemblance to what is indicated by the preceding element): alkaloid; anthropoid; cardioid; cuboid; lithoid; ovoid; planetoid', it would thus seem that the description of the Earth as "oblate spheroid', meaning an approximation of a flattened sphere, is perhaps correct after all.
(Of course, the suffix "-oid" is sometimes abused. For instance a BBC Radio 2 afternoon programme talks about "factoids", in the sense of "small"or "trivial" facts; but "-oid" is not a diminuitive). Arrivisto (talk) 21:47, 2 March 2021 (UTC)
- Arrivisto, hahaha! You really did your research! Thank you so much, you made my day. According to your research, which seems sound, I would assume that you are correct. However, I believe that you would need to update the Wikipedia article regarding spheroids since it does say, "The oblate spheroid is the approximate shape of rotating planets and other celestial bodies, including Earth..." and the article on Earth, which says "...a better approximation of Earth's shape is an oblate spheroid." The latter is supported by a reference to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. But for real, I really enjoyed that! I'm surprised that you even noticed that. Have a good day dude and alert me of any other potential discrepancies on my userpage! :) Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 22:50, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

Draft: Free News
Thank you for your advice and comments on how to Draft: Free News article. I have carefully studied the source citation materials, checked all the links included in my article, and added new links to authoritative sources that referrer to Free News for their publications. If necessary, I can clearly show where exactly there is a mention or link of Free News on the source sites, they are in every source that I indicated in the links of this article. I would like to ask you to take a look at the draft again and let me know if there are any more errors or if there is a need to add information that confirms the significant coverage of the audience. In any case, thanks for the help, I hope I can improve this article so that it would be worthy of publication. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Except248 (talk • contribs) 00:46, 3 March 2021 (UTC)
- Except248, I would review the draft for you, but you haven't yet submitted it. However, I do not yet think you have sufficiently addressed the issues. The references you have provided mostly seem to use Free News as a source or list it for more information. None of them go into any depth regarding Free News itself. Try and find more sources that discuss Free News rather than just briefly mention it as a source in order to establish its notability. See Wikipedia:Notability (media) and Wikipedia:Notability (web) for more information, and feel free to contact me with any questions/concerns. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 14:42, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Hey ;) Hair advice pls
Heyyyyyy :)))))))) I checked out ur wiki page and ur says u got more than 110000 hair. I know my username is imnotbald but I’m actually bald.
My wife is thinking about leaving me coz I’m bald and she’s taking my daughter too. Can u pls give me some hair advice? Thank you so much. Have a great day!!!! Imnotbald (talk) 11:23, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
- Imnotbald, this talk page is typically for asking Wikipedia-related questions, like for help editing, asking me about an edit I made, etc. not for random questions like that. Please keep this in mind in the future.
- Hopefully, this is a joke, but if your wife is truly considering leaving you and taking your daughter because you are balding, I think you two should sit down and have a very serious conversation about the reason you got married in the first place. Did she really marry you and have a daughter with you simply because she liked your hair? Ask her which is more important, the love you have for each other or a head of hair? If you still want some advice on how to deal with hair loss, see the article Management of hair loss, but I wouldn't do it for her if it is a prerequisite for her love. I hope that helps.

Hey, I just saw the message you left for me on my talk page,it said in the end 'ping me' or something like that; what does 'ping' mean? XWilliamson101 (talk) 14:46, 4 March 2021 (UTC)XWilliamson101
- This is a ping → @XWilliamson101:. Pinging is just mentioning someone specific so that they receive a notification in order to respond to you. You can ping someone by typing this:
{{ping|USERNAME}}
. Hopefully that helps and thanks for the barnstar as well. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 14:58, 4 March 2021 (UTC)- @EDG 543: Ok, and your welcome :) XWilliamson101 (talk) 15:54, 4 March 2021 (UTC)XWilliamson101

, those are just for me so that I can show you the code for the ping without it actually pinging anyone. Just type what you see before going into the editor:{{ping|USERNAME}}
. Also, you don't need to type your username after your signature, since it's already in your signature. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 16:03, 4 March 2021 (UTC)- @XWilliamson101: Please excuse me sticking my nose in here, but in case you were wondering, the term "ping" as used by the esteemed EDG_543, originally derives from the TCP/IP (computer networking) concept/utility called Ping (networking_utility). A little Saturday morning etymology for anyone interested. Cheers! Toddst1 (talk) 20:01, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Sources needed for Days of the Year pages
I see you recently accepted a pending change to April 27 that did not include a direct source.
You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages are no longer exempt from WP:V and direct sources are required for additions. For details see the edit notice on that page, the content guideline and/or the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide.
All new additions to the DOY pages without references are now being either reverted on-sight or in some cases where the patroller is especially motivated, immediately sourced. I've gone ahead and backed this edit out.
All the pages in the Days of the Year project have had pending changes protection turned on to prevent vandalism and further addition of entries without direct sources. As a pending changes patroller, it's not required but it sure would be helpful if you didn't accept additions to day of year pages where no direct source has been provided on that day of year page. The burden to provide sources for additions to these pages is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages.
Thank you and please keep up your good work! Toddst1 (talk) 19:54, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- Toddst1, thanks for the explanation! I will keep that in mind in the future for sure. To address your message above this one, thanks for the trivia, much appreciated!

DYK for 2021 Texas power crisis
On 12 March 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 2021 Texas power crisis, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Governor Greg Abbott initially blamed the 2021 Texas power crisis on frozen wind turbines? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/2021 Texas power crisis. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, 2021 Texas power crisis), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (ie, 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

- General electric p30ch, I did a quick look for references and could not find any quality ones. The only references I could find were to Fandom sites, which can't be used as they aren't reliable (since anyone can change the information). You may have to abandon this draft as it lacks general notability. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 12:10, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

- General electric p30ch, I cannot help you with referencing on Draft:Brendam Branch Line because, unfortunately, no good sources exist. All articles on Wikipedia need to be supported by reliable references. While Fandom sites can be helpful, we cannot use them as they can be changed by anyone and could contain false information. WP:REFB gives you a very good guide to referencing. Wikipedia:Reliable sources gives you a good explanation of how to determine whether a source is reliable or not, and you can click here for a fun quiz you can try to help you test your knowledge of reliable sources (don't worry, there's no grade and it explains why the sources are reliable or not for you).

John J. Richardson
EDG 543 Hi..I've followed hundreds of film and actor stub pages that depended solely on imdb.com, despite the fact that imdb is not a Reliable source! The page is definitely need to be improved, not deleted! I've made many Wikidata and Wikimedia Commons pages without their Wikipedia's counterparts. This time, however, I've created a page about John J. Richardson only to distinguish him from his contemporary Jack Richardson. Please see also his John J. Richardson Commons page and watch his Mack Sennett short with Bevan and Turpin.Maher27777 (talk) 15:48, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
- Maher27777, sorry for the confusion, but your article was not actually deleted. It was moved to a draft. Since it was moved to a draft, the blank article was that was left behind was deleted. Regardless of any articles you may have seen in the past, IMDb is not generally considered a reliable source as most of the information is provided by random editors. It may be used in a few cases, but should not be the sole reference for the article. You can read this short essay directly related to this issue.

RE > Message to myself - Chris LAdds
Dear EDG 543, you are correct in your observations about the number of edits in succession and the detail in the edit summaries. I am aware of what you describe, but what you see was done deliberately because unfortunately as a fairly new editor to Wiki, I am experiencing persistent vandalism to a page by a more longstanding editor. I recently left a message in the tearoom about this (about an hour ago at 21:40 British time).
The issue is that I reversed a series of non-sensical edits that introduced clearly fallacious information and changed the semantics or nuance of what was originally included. Some benefit of the doubt was given because the other editor cannot access specific sources, and they did make a series of other genuine improvements.
However, the user has been repeatedly reversing the edits and now has went as far as to change all of them whilst veiling it over with a series of minor language improvements. As far as I can trace this is a method of sidestepping direct vandalism and is called hidden vandalism. I have since issued an appropriate warning onto their wall. Some of the changes have amounted to changing comma lists of surnames into first and second names; describing small areas within others as forming the whole of a geographical area; describing one of multiple rented occupants as owning lands, by changing 'occupied' to 'belonged'; changing the names of churches and removing capitalisation of names, and much more. The editor seems insistent on doing batch edits and captioning them as 'slimming down' or 'adding sense' to the language. This they are not doing. As a new user this is very discouraging, especially because I am an archivist prominent in the area the articles cover, and many of the sources are ones I am identified with being a steward for. People in this part of Scotland are already coming across the article aware it has been expanded, and are pointing out the various mistakes the user is introducing.
Each single edit I made in succession as to make it absolutely clear why the edit was necessary and why it should remain for the record. The user reversed it all. It is odd because I can find little evidence of other vandalism by this user, but there is no mistaking the situation faced here. I think I have it right that after this warning there can be another two and then an administrator can step in?
Chris L. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrisladds (talk • contribs)
- Chrisladds, thank you for taking the time to explain the situation to me. At the Teahouse, it seems that most of the helpers think that the edits done by this user do not amount to vandalism, and users can be quite offended if newer users accuse them of doing such when, more likely, there is just a misunderstanding. If you want to discuss this matter with the editor in question, please click here to start a discussion regarding the user's edits. Type
{{ping|Bmcln1}}
(in order to notify them of the discussion) followed by a brief explanation. Please also remember to properly sign your post by typing~~~~
. Also, please be advised that this user has expressed a disinterest in engaging in this discussion and is a well-respected and highly experienced editor and I highly doubt that theydo nothave malicious intentions. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 22:17, 26 April 2021 (UTC)
- EDG 543 Thank you for your concise and wise statement. The issue with communication is that I am still getting used to the features of the Wikipedia interface such as Talk and Tearoom. I am however adept at this stage with the editing process and review of editing summaries. Whilst I note the majority of what is described, there is issue with the descriptions of tenure and respect. Whilst that may very well be true, the facts speak for themselves. I don't think any objective Wikipedia editor if fully aware of the facts and chronology of what happened, could label it anything but vandalism. The changes were made several times and the reasoning made clear in the summaries. This even amounted to my resort to one by one fixes, 17 in order, with full substantiation. That was partly because a full reversal would have removed two or three other improvements. Some of the changes accused as vandalism are quite acute, such as changing names of places and people. Details aside, if an experienced respected user takes issue with being 'corrected' and makes repeated attempts at restoring false information, and takes steps to shroud them in genuine edits - is that not a very clear case of vandalism? As a new user I actually feel bullied, and more so bullied by an established editor base that seem to value reputation and experience over the facts of what is right and wrong. That gives me very serious concerns as to whether I should continue making meaningful contributions to Wikipedia. Of course the other fear is that this may have happened before, but that other new users were bullied out and did not bother to stand up for what is right. My stance on the matter was not dissuaded by being new to the game. Best wishes.

- "I highly doubt that they do not have malicious intentions." Was that what you meant to write? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 10:04, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Gråbergs Gråa Sång: Not at all! I'm certain that I was trying to type "I'm pretty sure they do not have malicious intentions" and "I doubt they have malicious intentions" at the same time. Thank you for pointing that out! Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 12:24, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Chrisladds: I apologize if I made it seem like the other user was in the the right simply because they have a higher edit count as that is not the case. I have not thoroughly examined either of the edits, I only skimmed through the history of the article and do not have an opinion on who is right or who is wrong in this case. All I'm trying to say is that it doesn't really make sense that an editor with such a clean track record as theirs just suddenly starts bullying you out of the blue. Sure, the "power" that comes with being such a respected editor can go to some editor's heads, but I don't think this is the case. I'm certain that there is just a misunderstanding that could probably be talked out on the article's talk page. (I noticed here that an editor partially agrees with your stance.) I don't think that this should discourage you from making contributions to Wikipedia as I think you are a promising editor who can add a lot to this project. I would recommend simply either trying to talk it out calmly and respectfully (without making accusations of vandalism, whether true or not) or taking a step back from that article and editing elsewhere. The latter will allow you to continue to train your editing skills further and help you to develop a deeper understanding of Wikipedia's policies, as they can be a bit confusing when you are just getting started. I've been here a few years myself and still make plenty of mistakes and learn something new everyday. I hope you choose to stick around. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 12:46, 27 April 2021 (UTC)

Autopatrolled granted
Hi EDG 543, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the "autopatrolled" permission to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the autopatrolled right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. However, you should consider adding relevant wikiproject talk-page templates, stub-tags and categories to new articles that you create if you aren't already in the habit of doing so, since your articles will no longer be systematically checked by other editors (User:Evad37/rater and User:SD0001/StubSorter.js are useful scripts which can help). Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Beeblebrox (talk) 23:34, 9 May 2021 (UTC)

- ShameenaSultana562, perhaps you should've waited for a reply to the similar message you left to CommanderWaterford before coming here? The article you use as your example for why your article is good, Techfest, is actually marked as sounding like an advertisement as well, so maybe it's not the example you should be emulating... Take a look at WP:PROMO for more on our policies against advertising and make at least an effort to improve your draft this time. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 13:43, 11 May 2021 (UTC)

- Peaches4free, you've done well to gather more sources, but I'm not quite sure that they establish the notability of this church. According to WikiProject Religion, "
as for any subject on Wikipedia, presumption of notability for a religious structure or building depends wholly on the existence of significant coverage in multiple reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.
" If you feel the draft satisfies those guidelines, feel free to resubmit and a reviewer will take a look at it. Please be patient as their are currently 5,178 other drafts also awaiting review. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 20:48, 17 May 2021 (UTC)
Issue with getting approved
Hello,
Thank you for your review on Maria Gloria Dominguez-Bello's page by me, RU Microbiome Program.
I believe I fixed the citations on that page and I had submitted the page again. Would it be possible to review the changes, and hopefully be approved?
Thanks,

- RU Microbiome Program, I'm terribly sorry, but I am currently incredibly busy in real life and am not actively reviewing articles until mid-August. Please just be patient and another reviewer will take care of it eventually. However, I do want you to be aware that there is a such thing as too many citations. I would advise removing many of them before a reviewer will take you seriously, as 100+ in the further reading section is quite excessive. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 20:53, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

Question from K T McVeigh (07:53, 17 August 2022)
Hi, can you tell me if it is OK to edit or delete a comment on someone's page if it relates to an unbalanced, headline grabbing newspaper article? I can see someone has written about the story and added in the source link but the article features inaccuracies and has taken one statement said in private and made it into a newspaper headline. I would like to change it or delete it all together, but is this allowed? --K T McVeigh (talk) 07:53, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
- K T McVeigh, sorry for the delayed response. No, typically you should not delete or edit anyone elses comments on talk pages. Instead, reply to the comment and state your concerns. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 16:10, 18 August 2022 (UTC)

- This isn't really the place to ask technology-issue-related questions. Try restarting and then factory resetting your device (after backing up any important data) if the issue hasn't resolved itself by then. Thanks, EDG 543 (message me) 02:36, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
