Jiggery-pokery in userspace to avoid MfD?
editYou recently closed this MfD, given that the page was speedily deleted per author's request. Shortly thereafter, author recreated the page, with substantially the same content (an apparent fiction or hoax). I believe that either the MfD should be restored, or the author's CSD honored again, and the page salted to prevent future shenanigans. If you are disinclined to take action on your own, could you recommend a venue for me to take this matter? Thanks. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 01:05, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Hobbes Goodyear, this is an odd situation made stranger by the user having a whole load of draft articles about topics I can't find any evidence of existing, I've left the user a note here querying this, but otherwise it seems that WP:G3 will be the way to go for the obvious hoaxes (supposed but incorrect members of bands and a video game that doesn't exist for example), and MfD for the less obvious ones. But lets give them a day or two to respond first. Re-opening that MfD was sensible for now I think. Sam Walton (talk) 09:57, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks, appreciate your attention here. --Hobbes Goodyear (talk) 10:56, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi, could I ask you to take a second look at the request to protect Ratodero there appear to be multiple ip and new editors adding unsourced claims, incorrect image links and self promotional information (going by their username) to this article. Amortias (T)(C) 21:44, 1 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Amortias. I've just semi-protected it for a day. Do you know if the latest edits are correct, or worth undoing? Sam Walton (talk) 09:33, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- No they wernt and i've undone them. They do appear to ahve quite a range of IP's available to them so i dont know if its worth extending the protection until they get bored. Amortias (T)(C) 15:50, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

editOK. Will do, later this afternoon. I hope you'll stop in and post. It's funny — I did look for but couldn't find the applicable policy/guideline about "child" pages related to a deleted parent page, though I've seen other editors refer to it without linking to it. Maybe there isn't one specifically about that? Any info would be of help with an AfD.

Deletion of Nothing Clothing Company
editHi Sam
Ubiquity has made me aware that he did not actually delete the page that I made for nothing clothing company.
If you could kindly let me know the main reasons for deletion and supply a copy of the deleted page. I will be sure to amend this so that it meets your requirements.
In terms of why it deserves a space is simply the association it has with hundreds of credible charities, including many owned and operated by celebrities. I believe that I had made a start with crediting several of these in the links. I can remove the social media stuff if it was that causing concern.
Many thanks
Peter

Kurds infobox and user Ferakp plus his ip

The edit filter you made
editThanks again for making AbuseFilter/666], (designed to detect devilry. :) ) I am wondering, can you add other names to that which are unrelated to that particular user? I mean, why not add a bunch of these problematic sock/spammer names? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:57, 17 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Anna, sorry for the delay! There is a filter for general problematic socks (Special:AbuseFilter/16), but that can be rather restricting. In particular this user seems to write full articles in one go, which 16 wouldn't catch because of the relatively low edit_delta requirement. It definitely makes sense to combine multiple filters if they can share conditions though, did you have a particular user in mind? Sam Walton (talk) 08:51, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
- Also, I can't remember if I asked, do you think it's worth switching 666 to disallow? The log would still flag the edit attempts so you could block the accounts and catch any stray edits, but it would save you a little time and perhaps disuade the user from trying. Sam Walton (talk) 08:53, 14 May 2015 (UTC)
- Hi, Sam. Last question first. I wouldn't worry about the disallow. Notify is fine.
- There are some long terms socks that the following search strings would find. I regularly search for them:
- Phines West
- NPK Twice
- Abhay Gupta cricket
- Fils Tunechi
- If those were added and matches found, I'd know what to do. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:47, 16 May 2015 (UTC)
- Then again, those strings are everywhere as block sock names. Could they be searched for only if not on blocked userpages? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 22:49, 16 May 2015 (UTC)

Maelbros?
editHi Sam, this is a reeeeal long shot, but the new (and newly indeffed) user BoomBaluga has some similarities to Maelbros. The user made a bunch of unsourced changes to infobox stuff (countries, production companies, etc) like [1][2][3]. I tried to vet this edit where he changes |company= from "Spümcø, Cambium Film & Television Productions" to "Spümcø / CinéGroupe / FOXTEL / Sony Wonder, but it doesn't jibe with these closing credits which support Spümcø and Cambium. (21:23), so that looks like clear infobox vandalism, which is one of Mael's MOs. And since I noticed a few edits at the French Wikipedia, I thought maaaaaybe it's Maelbros. The user also created a bunch of hoax articles, which I don't really think is Mael's kinda thing. Anyhow. Just keeping you in my mental loop. :D Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:17, 18 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Cyphoidbomb. Not sure, definitely possible though. I'm thinking of starting an LTA page at some point by the way, do you think that's a good idea? Sam Walton (talk) 08:54, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

The Herald (submissions) during the second round.The second round one has all wrapped up, and round three has now begun! Congratulations to the 34 contestants who have made it through, but well done and thank you to all contestants who took part in our second round. Leading the way overall was 
Cas Liber (submissions) in Group B with a total of 777 points for a variety of contributions including Good Articles on Corona Borealis and Microscopium - both of which received the maximum bonus.
Special credit must be given to a number of high importance articles improved during the second round.
Coemgenus (submissions) was one of several users who worked on improving Ulysses S. Grant. Remember, you do not need to work on an article on your own - as long as each person has completed significant work on the article during 2015, multiple competitors can claim the same article.
Cwmhiraeth (submissions) took Dragonfly to Good Article for a 3x bonus - and if that wasn't enough, they also took Damselfly there as well for a 2x bonus.
LeftAire (submissions) worked up Alexander Hamilton to Good Article for the maximum bonus. Hamilton was one of the founding fathers of the United States and is a level 4 vital article.
The points varied across groups, with the lowest score required to gain automatic qualification was 68 in Group A - meanwhile the second place score in Group H was 404, which would have been high enough to win all but one of the other Groups! As well as the top two of each group automatically going through to the third round, a minimum score of 55 was required for a wildcard competitor to go through. We had a three-way tie at 55 points and all three have qualified for the next round, in the spirit of fairness. The third round ends on June 28, with the top two in each group progressing automatically while the remaining 16 highest scorers across all four groups go through as wildcards. Good luck to all competitors for the third round! Figureskatingfan (talk · contribs · email), Miyagawa (talk · contribs · email) and Sturmvogel 66 (talk · contribs · email) 16:42, 4 May 2015 (UTC)

Greek techno vandal -- can the filter email me?
editToday your filter number 663 disallowed a handful of edits from our friend the long-term disruptor from Greece. (See Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/Techno genre warrior from Greece.) He also got away with three edits. I would like to know whether the filter can email me a notice of activity so that I can manually check the work of the IP? Binksternet (talk) 16:50, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
- @Binksternet: From a first glance I'm actually not sure why the filter didn't catch those edits, perhaps MusikAnimal can take a closer look. Unfortunately I don't know of any way to get email notifications, but I did not too long ago propose that we be able to set up RSS feeds for them. Whether that will happen I have no idea though. Sam Walton (talk) 18:25, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
- @Binksternet: I can try to tweak the filter, but a little busy at the moment. I don't think there's a way to automate an email digest of filter activity, but that doesn't sound like a bad idea for a bot. I believe it can be done, and MusikBot may be willing to do it, if I teach him how. — MusikAnimal talk 18:35, 5 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi Samwalton9. Please add a closing rationale to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Array Networks. I do not see a consensus to delete.

Question about a deletion
editHi! You were the admin that closed the deletion discussion for MADE 2015 World Tour 11 days ago and as the article is back up already I wasn't sure what to do. So I decided to ask you if in this situation I should submit for second deletion request or is it the first because the last one had the page deleted so it starts over? I'm not real sure which it is, and I know I should talk with the editors on the page about it but I get the sense that we have an unsolvable disagreement on what type of articles prove notability since most of the page is copied from the last version. Peachywink (talk) 13:18, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Peachywink. Since it's identical to the last page it qualified for speedy deletion under criteria G4, so you can nominate recreated articles for that in the future :) Sam Walton (talk) 18:52, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
- Okay, thank you for letting me know!Peachywink (talk) 18:57, 27 May 2015 (UTC)
The first time the article was deleted is the lack of information, and the tour did not have an impact. But now it has, there are many records have been broken and the tour only just begin, the editors told me that when is there is more information the article could comeback. So i don't know why you delete it while it's a worthy article. CeserLeto. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CesarLeto (talk • contribs) 02:18, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

editPlease assume good faith in the future. I actually looked at it for 5 minutes (checking the source given and reading it carefully (I speed read ) to make sure that it actually referenced what it claimed to). It didn't, and per WP:BLP it had to be removed. I see the section was altogether removed as trivia later, I didn't consider it trivia, but that's ok, I removed the section that violated BLP per WP:BLP. KoshVorlon Rassekali ternii i mlechnye puti 18:50, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
- @KoshVorlon: Honestly I find it even harder to assume good faith if you really spent 5 minutes looking at the edit, this is a revert you made, from the correct wording (Bell, wife) to incorrect (Bellend, mum), which you preceded to edit war in. Sam Walton (talk) 18:54, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
- Sam, what I reverted was a quote attributed to Mr. Bell where he claimed he said he was a fuck up, the reference given never said that. Do we agree on that so far ? (and yes, I read what you wrote, I will go back over my own revert and see if he was being referred to as "Bellend". I didn't see that on the revert I made to be honest. KoshVorlon Rassekali ternii i mlechnye puti 18:59, 31 May 2015 (UTC) Addendum Just finished taking a look, and it looks like three users saw two different things. I saw the "fuck up" and reverted that but didn't see the "bellend" and "mum" from the previous revert, so looks like three users were reverting vandalism.
No problem. Self trouting (myself only ) applied ! KoshVorlon Rassekali ternii i mlechnye puti 19:02, 31 May 2015 (UTC)
- (edit conflict)It's not a huge deal, I'm guessing you meant to revert this edit but reverted this instead. Double checking what it is you're reverting in the future would avoid edit warring the wrong thing, you preceded to revert that edit 3 times without realising.
