Subpages

Hey JJE, I saw you were the deleting admin. on the MfD's of Portal:Brunei, Portal:Budapest, Portal:Time and Portal:Yoruba people. All of those portals have bunch of subpages as well; can you take care of them or do I have to tag each subpage with CSD G8 myself instead? Thanks. UnitedStatesian (talk) 17:20, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

Nah, I got care of them. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 18:22, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
Thanks; Portal:Railways in India also has a bunch. UnitedStatesian (talk) 19:02, 3 June 2019 (UTC)
That is also done. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:42, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for closing this. It also included Northern Islands, Northern Mariana Islands; could you please delete that and I'll move the municipality article there. Reywas92Talk 21:15, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

hey im just a editor you know

(I think of the voice in the original radio series of The HitchHikers Guide to the Galaxy of Zaphod Beeblebrox), and if you are able to re-frame the material, fine - I simply was looking at the bulk of material that seemed to be a link to something, and the way it was done as spam - hey if you have a creative reformulation of an ext link that works for you and you dont feel youre promoting a spam operation - go for it JarrahTree 14:16, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Aegir Hosting System

The resolution should be that if WP:GNG can't be resolved, then it should be merged because it is specific to the software now. If at some point it no longer is, and WP:GNG isn't resolved at that point, then it makes sense to delete. My point wasn't that it can't be merged now; it was that it may not make sense in the future. As someone else pointed out, this is irrelevant (and I now agree). As such, would it be possible to undelete and merge, or at least revisit? I'm quite sure that this is the consensus as it stands.

If not, how would I be able to recover the text? The page is now gone, and I wasn't prepared, thinking there would be some kind of warning countdown. Thanks. --Jayden Black (talk) 13:33, 4 June 2019 (UTC)

Greetings. When I closed this I was thinking of a merger but from the comments including yours it seemed like there was no clear reason to prefer a particular page. Do you want to have the text userfied? Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 13:40, 4 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi! Well, it would definitely be Drupal as it's a hosting system for Drupal sites. (Yes, there are plug-ins for other content management frameworks, but that's because they trick Aegir into thinking they're Drupal, when they're not. So these are hacks essentially.) Does this help? Do you need any other info? Sure, a dump of the main text area would be helpful. Thanks! --Jayden Black (talk) 15:34, 5 June 2019 (UTC)

Identifying within-wiki copying

Thanks for your attention to detail declining my G12 nomination of Chester Smith (police officer). Can I ask what tools/steps you used to identify the content came from within Wikipedia so I don't make the same mistake again? Thanks! MarginalCost (talk) 19:19, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

Greetings, MarginalCost Before accepting the G12 speedy deletion an administrator has to check that a) there is no clean version in the history, b) that all of the article content is copied and c) that the source is copyrighted. When checking c) I noticed an odd structure in the page that looked like a Wikipedia article and lo and behold there was "Source of the article: Wikipedia" at the bottom. I did check that that article wasn't copyrighted and found out it wasn't. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 20:19, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

NLRP, NICT

Hello - you just removed speedy delete tags from NLRP (disambiguation) and NICT (disambiguation). These pages (two of a number I'm dealing with) are redirects that point to pages which are not (or are no longer) disambiguation pages. I do not understand your edit summary suggestion "In this case, one can simply remove the template". These pages are useless orphans that ought to be deleted, and will go to AfD if you cannot undo your edits. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 08:51, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Greetings, Shhhnotsoloud. WP:CSD#G8 by its own text applies to a dependent page of a page which does not exist, has been deleted, or is itself currently tagged for speedy deletion which isn't the case for either redirect, and "useless orphans" isn't a speedy deletion reason. The reason for my edit summary is that I was thinking you were trying to fix the "redirect to a disambiguation page" text. I believe that WP:RFD would indeed be the correct place to request deletion, unless WP:CSD#G14 applies but I am not sure of that. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 08:57, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
Sorry - yes, of course - RfD not AfD. OK, but other admins have deleted similar as G8. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:02, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
@Shhhnotsoloud: Which pages were "deleted similar as G8"? I strongly suspect these deletions were incorrect. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:11, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
For example, see the redlinks at User:RussBot/Non-disambiguation redirects/003. I've now posted Wikipedia talk:Criteria for speedy deletion#Deletion of redundant (disambiguation) redirects. Thanks, Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 09:33, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Health of Donald Trump

Jo-Jo, we need a more defined closing statement besides "merge". The discussion favored merging but only the verified health information by doctors who actual examined him, not the armchair garbage, otherwise we're back to square one, and that AfD was for naught. When I took the issue to BLPN, I listed valid reasons for concern, and GreenMeansGo was kind enough to open the AfD. Can you please be more specific regarding what gets merged based on the concerns stated in the AfD discussion re: excluding the armchair diagnosis, or should we do something else because local consensus is not a wide enough swathe for community input like it was with the AfD. We shouldn't have to go through this all over again. Atsme Talk 📧 00:39, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

I feel like Jo-Jo's closure was very clear that only some of the information, not the speculation/gossip, should be merged. "there seems to be a consensus that some of the material should be covered somewhere". Jo-Jo - Thanks for the very verbose closure rationale. It's very helpful on controversial topics like this and I appreciate the depth of research you did in the closure.--v/r - TP 01:09, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
I did, too - at first. But there's a new discussion started at Donald Trump to merge all of it. Atsme Talk 📧 01:12, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
I see that now. Jo-Jo, we made need to ask that you be more explicit on that point if it was your intent.--v/r - TP 01:15, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Greetings, @Atsme and TParis:. To be honest, I am not sure if amending the closing statement would help in this regard; whatever I say there would not necessarily be binding on editors of Donald Trump as that page has its own discussion page, its own consensus finding process, and its own special rule

so stuff is a lot more up to debate than in other mergers.

That said, given that some of the concerns in the discussion included speculation/gossiping and questionable medical information and were fairly widely shared, I'll put in a comment about what editors should consider when copying over stuff. Maybe that'll help. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 08:32, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

Good morning, Jo-Jo. About 1-1/2 yrs. ago, Aircorn and I were working on a proposal to help bring clarity and eliminate the ambiguities involved in AfDs that end in merge. I'm of the mind that AfD discussions resulting in merge should clearly state what parts of the article should be merged, if there should be a redirect, etc., with emphasis on the reasons an article was an AfD nom in the first place. The latter is the part that causes confusion in many AfD-Merge discussions, which somehow get reduced to merge discussions instead of delete discussions, primarily because consensus assumes the contentious material will be eliminated, as with the article in question wherein PAGs supported deletion of noncompliant material - it just needs to be stated more clearly.
You provided a very well thought out close, Jo-Jo, and it would prove helpful if, for the sake of clarity, you would condense it and include the parts that should be deleted as noncompliant with WP:PAG which was an integral part of the discussion; i.e. merge without the noncompliant/contentious material. We need a paragraph that clearly, succinctly and unambiguously states only the prevailing arguments in the iVotes. To kick it back to the article TP for editors to fight it out makes the AfD appear to be a waste of the community's time, especially considering the AfD was an action that resulted from a BLPN discussion - there were issues in the article that do not need to be repeated. Yes, there are DS in place at the article but that's why we need clarity of the close because without it, editors typically become frustrated having to argue the same points over and over again (BLPN & then AfD) with a smaller faction of the same editors that participated at the other discussions. It's easy to lose patience under such circumstances, and that's what leads to good editors getting t-banned or blocked when it all should have been resolved at AfD. Just my nickel's worth. Perhaps TParis has a different view. Atsme Talk 📧 13:38, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
The problem I see with your request is that AFD is a "should this page exist separately?" discussion rather than a "what stuff can be saved into another article" one and thus not really a good place to hammer out what part of the content of Health of Donald Trump belongs into Donald Trump; as noted under e.g WP:PAGEDECIDE and WP:NPOVFACT the what is appropriate for an article may not be appropriate for a section in another article and vice versa. Further, as people have noted on Talk:Donald Trump the AFD cannot really mandate that they accept (or not) particular content into the Trump article. I've written Also anything overly trivial, gossipy or based on armchair analysis as these are the things that have raised concerns in the discussion. on the Trump talk page to cover some of the material that should probably be left off. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:37, 14 June 2019 (UTC)
Perfect. It brings clarity, and at the very least, food for thought when performing the merge. I have no issue with the inclusion of a report from a doctor who performed the actual exam that was responsibly published in a RS. I'm of the mind that it covers us regarding any privacy issues. I also have no issue with including brief mention per DUE regarding the armchair reports (fringy gossip/detractors/opposition opinions) as it was highly publicized, but then again, is it really encyclopedic and does it have lasting vaue? Do we remember any of the other mudslinging among candidates and their detractors from years past? Ha!! I hope editors will propose a paragraph for inclusion in an RfC at the article TP so we can provide input and reach a healthy consensus. Bottomline, you did an excellent job closing that AfD. Most admins try to avoid AP2 like the plague! Kudos to you!! Atsme Talk 📧 19:28, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

deleted page

Hello,

I was wondering why did you removed a page called 'Flashbacks (Contemplate EP)'? Because information about this EP can be found on the internet and the songs are on every store, streaming platforms etc.

I've restored it as it wasn't meeting the WP:CSD#A9 criteria, but I'd like to note that Because information about this EP can be found on the internet and the songs are on every store, streaming platforms etc. is not sufficient cause to have an article on a topic.

AFD Close

I noticed that when you closed Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Hudson_Greene, you mentioned that "It seems like the sourcing presented by Andrew Davidson has convinced most editors." Did you account for the fact that four of the five "Keep" !votes (excluding A. Davidson's) are from Article Rescue Squadron participants who showed up after it was posted there by A. Davidson, creating a possible canvassing situation? –dlthewave 17:54, 28 June 2019 (UTC)

I did see this, but I also noticed that while Davidson's post was made on the 20th, most of the keeps came over the next few days even though the editors in question have been steadily active without noticeable breaks. To me this sounded more like organic keep !votes rather than those that a canvass would produce. In addition, even if I discounted them it would only suffice for a "no consensus" as Rusf10's rebuttal and Andrew's counter-assertion look more like reasoned disagreement about whether the sources are SIGCOV rather than a one-side-right-the-other-wrong case to me. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:14, 28 June 2019 (UTC)
Thanks. I'm not going to argue the point, since it wouldn't really change the outcome. I'm just trying to gauge whether or not closers notice when most of the votes come from ARS members after being listed there. –dlthewave 12:04, 29 June 2019 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eric Records

Hi, apparently the Eric Records page was never reviewed and was flagged as a possible copyvio on new pages patrol - I went through and made sure it wasn't, but then I prodded the article since I thought it was a clear WP:NORG failure based on looking through the possible copyvio sites and through a WP:BEFORE search. I didn't check to see if it had been sent to AfD since I figured it was a new article so I removed the prod. I think you got the close correct, but I don't see anything there which covers the company significantly either apart from one article (and a bunch of advertisements for Paul Anka's music.) Just wondering if you think this article should go a whole year before being renominated. SportingFlyer T·C 06:57, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Greetings. This was the state of the discussion before closure (for some reason linking directly to the AFD page does hide all its content); I am not really familiar enough with most of these sources to judge their appropriateness. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 15:11, 1 July 2019 (UTC)

Russell A. Alger deletion proposal

Thanks! I was about to redo as a PROD but decided to check another source to try to get cancellation date and details. It turns out the source given in the piece, another of my good sources, blundered (rarely, but just as DANFS and others blunders do happen). The "article" is unlikely to go beyond stub status, but the ship did exist.

Partial hospitalization

Just a courtesy post in case you noticed that I'd speedied this despite the "Keep" at AFD. The article was then correctly tagged as a copyright violation, and I deleted on that basis.

@Interstellarity and Jimfbleak: Begging pardon, but according to the deletion discussion there was a salvageable version. G12 only applies to text pages that contain copyrighted material with no credible assertion of public domain, fair use, or a compatible free license, where there is no non-infringing content on the page worth saving. Only if the history is unsalvageably corrupted should it be deleted in its entirety; earlier versions without infringement should be retained.

Hello Jo-Jo Eumerus, a Portal that you have previously refused to speedily delete Portal:Climbing has been nominated for deletion by the same person who wanted to speedily delete it. If you could share your thoughts in the deletion discussion, that would be great. Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:Climbing (2nd nomination). Thanks Hecato (talk) 07:05, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Sorry, but I don't have an opinion on that portal other than that I stand by my refusal to speedily delete it. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 09:47, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Hi Jo-Jo--I hope you can do me a small favor. I'm reviewing this nomination, but it's pretty technical. Really, I need an expert to look at a few things--is the hook properly verified? (The language in those sources is very technical, and I cannot access one of them.) Is the article content in reasonable condition, is anything important missing, etc.? It's not a GA nomination, but still, we don't want to look like fools, and I shouldn't sign off on that one until I am more certain of the content. Thank you so much!

Greetings. The hook shouldn't say "unusual" as we don't really say that in such a context, should perhaps say "recent" as in the Miocene-Pliocene there surely were volcanoes there. Ramos does say that there are no volcanoes in the gap and the rest of the text seems reasonable to me (disclaimer: I have not done any detailed source-text comparison).

Thanks--that's what I was looking for. Drmies (talk) 21:45, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
