Moving of Draft:Trish O Couture to Mainspace

edit

Hello Epcc12345,

An article you recently moved to mainspace has been moved back to draft by me. This is because the article was at WP:AFC and articles created in draftspace should go through the process and be reviewed by reviewers. I would advise you do not move any other pages without being moved by a reviewer to avoid being blocked from using Wikipedia. Lapablo (talk) 09:40, 26 July 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thanks again, and happy editing!

Speedy deletion nomination of Babajide Oluwase

edit
 

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 Babajide Oluwase requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://www.weforum.org/people/babajide-oluwase. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

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 deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Speedy deletion of Battle of San Giorgio

edit
 

The page Battle of San Giorgio has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion Review.

Van Calebs moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Van Calebs, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.

  • @Ivanvector: Just playing devil's advocate here, is there a possibility that Kinkordada simply copied Epcc's comment without anything illicit by the latter? Feel free to reply by email if there's anything subtle to it. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 02:40, 15 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    @Tamzin: normally if there is private info involved in the decision to block we will mark the block log with {{checkuserblock-account}} or a similar template, and if we don't then the block review is up to admin discretion just like any other review. In this case there was nothing determinate in the private data, other than that both users edit through peer-to-peer proxy services, anonymizing services frequently used by abusive editors. As I recall I didn't think that both accounts were being operated by the same person, but were part of a larger group organizing to vote !keep on subjects they had an interest in promoting (i.e. meatpuppetry and canvassing). If you think that's not the case, or you want to extend good faith, I have no objection to unblocking. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:03, 15 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Ivanvector Sincerely I don't know that username , I only edit base on my personal discretion on source I found and nothing more. If my contribution on AFD happens to be much issues, I will stay away from it so issues like this won't arise again. Please kindly unblock me.Epcc12345 (talk) 13:10, 17 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    @Tamzin: are you still considering this? Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:11, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Sorry, needed to set aside some time to dig through the AfD history. I'm torn. A lot of the early AfD !votes are on articles with UPE connections, with is often a red flag for UPE (even if the !votes are to delete, since UPE operations will target one another's work). On the other hand, they're heavily clustered toward the start of the alphabet, suggesting someone working through the category of AfDs, which isn't an explanation I can square with paid !votes. And a whole lot of AfDs do have UPE connections, especially if one picks out the names that seem connected to the developing world. And there's a plausible narrative here of someone who saw an article of someone they know at AfD and then got curious about the process. On the third hand, that article was created by a UPE-farm, which is very suspicious, but on the fourth hand, if knowing someone off-wiki who paid for some kind of UPE were blockable, I'd be blocked, and declaring a COI when !voting keep isn't normally in the UPE playbook.
    That's a lot of hands. So, I could conditionally unblock with a ban from AfD, but that wouldn't really fix the problem. If Epcc is an undisclosed paid editor, they don't belong here, period. And if they're just someone in the wrong place at the wrong time, they don't deserve to be banned from part of the project over bad luck. @JBW: Are you free for a 3O here? If I had to pick right now, I'd say I'm at like 55% in favor of unblock, but I'm really on the fence. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 16:14, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    @Tamzin: I think that Kinkordada and Epcc12345 are unlikely to be the same person, mainly on the basis of differences in use of English, which theoretically could be faked, but I doubt that they are. The question of whether they are both undisclosed paid editors, and if so whether they are connected to one another, is more difficult. They can each be connected to other editors who can be connected to one another, and they could all be one big UPE collective. However, the evidence I have seen would certainly not been enough for me to have blocked Epcc12345: there would have been enough doubt for me to hold back. My threshold for reverting someone else's block is different from that for placing a block myself, but my inclination is to say that in the absence of really persuasive evidence we should probably AGF and unblock. JBW (talk) 21:45, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Okay, I've looked at this a bit more. And it'll come down to one question for you, Epcc12345, and I need you to think about it really carefully before you answer, because I'm not going to give you a chance to change your answer once you give it: Here is every article you've edited. Here is drafts. That excludes deleted pages, so add to that list: Patricia Onumonu, Draft:Trish O Couture, Draft:Tammy Nguyen, Kakofoni Group, Draft:Anil Choubey, Draft:Aaron Fjellman, Draft:Dana Schwalbe, Draft:Ahmed Belal, Draft:Aman Shekhar, Draft:Crowley Cheese, Biotique, Fela Akinse, Thokchom Lokeshwar Singh, Garang Wachbaar, Daniel Meszaros (swimmer), Annie Lim, Draft:Emilio Ferro, Battle of San Giorgio, Marianna Majorosi. Of these articles and drafts (the ones in the first link, the ones in the second link, and the ones I just listed), which do you have a conflict of interest with? To be transparent, I am asking because I'm willing to believe you are not a "hired gun" (someone editing for pay for any client), but I do think it's likely that you have engaged in some level of conflict-of-interest editing. This would not be an outright obstacle to unblocking, but it's something you have to be honest about. -- Tamzin[cetacean needed] (she|they|xe) 22:48, 18 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
