editSee Help:Referencing for beginners. Doug Weller talk 16:42, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Hi Doug Weller,
I received what looks like a link only and it is noted. However, the article was rejected not for references or citing, but for not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. I specifically am asking to address this issue only for now. The other issues raised can be addressed accordingly.
(talk page stalker) @Spiritletters: your sources all appear to be Wikipedia articles, which we never use, and their website, which can't be used to show notability. I'm wondering if your Wikipedia links were meant to go to the news media mentioned. Doug Weller talk 16:41, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Doug, Good solid point. Yes, news media mentioned (unless its biased or slandering with malicious intent like some) As well as Wiki articles and the news media links that were used to verify the notability of the article to begin with. Thanks Spiritletters (talk) 17:19, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Thanks Spiritletters (talk) 17:04, 13 February 2020 (UTC)
Jayo Felony and DJ Rectangle are significantly notable considering all things, which is why they both have publications on Wiki. The Toven has collaborated and or contributed with both figures on key works. That in of itself alone warrants a stand alone draft article for The Toven.

The article Sagon Penn has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Clearly fails WP:PERP / WP:BLPCRIME
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. bonadea contributions talk 20:18, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
Bonadea
Looks like you stalked and butted in here also. Proposed deletion for what? Please be more specific.This is the only person in the history of United States to Kill an officer in SELF DEFENSE AND BE ACQUITTED!Facts! This is not a NORMAL situation.
Anyone who has a problem with a person standing their ground and defending themselves as stated by the courts should not be allowed to recklessly propose deletions.
Clearly fails WP:PERP / WP:BLPCRIME ?
Article was improved. Author of proposed deletion Please be more specific with proposed deletion concerns?
1. This person was accused of a crime and later ACQUITTED and therefore the issue of guilt is MOOT so the drafting is fine.
2. Ted Bundy has a Wikipedia page right? And so many others, therefore A person who is known only in connection with a criminal event or trial should not normally be the subject of a separate Wikipedia article is inconsistent and an incorrect attack against the article. Nor is this a Normal incident but rather the FIRST of its kind right?
3.Are their any great wiki volunteers that wish to help improve these facts and or the article? Hopefully someone butts in for a good cause even though the page was well drafted. Feel free to chime in. Injuries and death surrounding this landmark event are not condoned however the facts are the facts and the law is the law. Kindly.
Sand Diego's FIRST Citizen Police Review Board was enacted as a result. To some people in America that would make Sagon Penn a Unintentional HERO for STANDING HIS GROUND.
Get over the fact and except them for what they are I guarantee that Sagon Penn page will have its published article in wiki whether now or later.
Since when did proposing to Delete a verified groundbreaking piece of american history become apart of the makeup of core values of Wikipedia?
The draft was appropriately created and is now under attack.Kindly the indisputable truthSpiritletters (talk) 22:02, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
- As clearly explained in the original notice above, you are free to contest the proposed decision by removing the deletion template from the article. Please read the instructions above to find out exactly what you need to do. The article could still be nominated for deletion through a deletion discussion process in which case you would not be allowed to remove the nomination, but the "proposed deletion" template can be removed. The explanation of my deletion rationale is in the links I provided in the notice itself.
Answer
Dear Bonada,
The real question is why did you single the Sagon Penn page out for deletion to begin with? Its very interesting you would do that right after butting into a discussion regarding The Toven draft. Do you have personal feelings about Sagon Penn? It could seem to the millions of wiki USERS that he is being targeted yet once again by attempting to delete his very NOTABLE historic altercation! Kindly 16:27, 7 April 2020 (UTC)Spiritletters (talk)
- On a different topic: I assume that my fellow editors are intelligent and that they read the information presented to them. Please extend the same courtesy to others, and please make sure to follow the links used in other editors' replies to you. Also remember at all times to comment on content and edits, and never on contributors – that is part of assuming good faith which is a core policy. On a different talk page you accused me of "running away" from an argument, when the reality was that it was nearly midnight in my time zone and I had to go to bed; you could not know that unless you were to look at my user page (which I wouldn't expect anyone to do), so that's where "assume good faith" comes into play. In addition, just like you and everyone else here I am a volunteer, and I and you and everyone else is free to leave a discussion at any time. At this point, I am leaving the discussion about the proposed deletion of Sagon Penn. --bonadea contributions talk 06:22, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Answer
Dear Bonadea
I am confused about what point your attempting to make here. If it was bedtime why did you, in your own words ″butt into″ the discussion between theroadislong and I regarding The Toven draft? Then instead of responding to my question you mysteriously navigated to my Sago Penn article and selected it for Deletion. Maybe you can answer this question? KindlySpiritletters (talk) 16:27, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
- I thought, maybe misguidedly, that I could help explain the situation, which is why I participated in the user talk page discussion. That's how Wikipedia discussions work – they are open for everybody, in general. As you saw, other people also opted to join in to try to explain Wikipedia's policies, which are admittedly a bit obscure and convoluted at times (but we have to stick to them nonetheless.) As for your second question, I can see from my edit history that I posted mmy contribution to the talk page discussion at 22:09. About ten minutes later I posted the proposed deletion notice at Sagon Penn. Your questions to me at Theroadislong's user talk page were posted more than an hour later, and at that point I was no longer online. Hope that helps. I'm glad you don't see what "point" I was trying to make, since I wasn't trying to make a point, simply give you the information about how you could contest the deletion, and about the crucial "assume good faith" policy, since that is something that you will always be expected to follow, and I couldn't see that you had been given that information before. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 17:03, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Dear Bonadea
I am not understanding your point. Why did you select Sagon Penn for deletion? The discussion you butted into was not about a Sago Penn topic? It interestingly. By The way...Penn was was a martial arts expert and community leader from Southeast San Diego who taught Karate to under privileged kids BEFORE the Incident!

The Toven Draft
editHello Theroadislong,
You moved this article back to draft without proper basis as at the very least it meets the guidelines below
WP:OTHERS Composers and performers outside mass media traditions may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
1.Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture.
THE SAN DIEGO READER PUBLICATION
Has covered The Toven since 2014. As you know, it is a fact that the following source below was intentionally deleted by a journalist at the publication because the article which covered multiple works over a period of 8 years is missing and wiki has failed to assist with recovery. You, or other wiki staff have publicly identified the missing link as being key but have failed to help recover it.
"The Toven". www.sandiegoreader.com. Retrieved 2020-02-13.
However, I have the contents of the deleted articles in PDF format. How should I submit to you or wiki as evidence???
"The Toven". www.sandiegoreader.com. Retrieved 2020-02-13.
SAN DIEGO READER DELETED ALL THE FOLLOWING LINKS COVERING WORKS BY THE TOVEN, SINCE THE DRAFTING OF HIS WIKI PAGE

The only article they couldn't delete (below) was because it was written by a former employee who is now deceased.

How shall we proceed? Thanks 17:26, 6 April 2020 (UTC)Spiritletters (talk)
I can't help you I'm afraid your draft Draft:The Toven has no reliable independent sources and until you find some it cannot be accepted. Theroadislong (talk) 17:37, 6 April 2020 (UTC) Dear Theroadislong
Are you now claiming that the San Diego Reader is not a independent reliable source? and that this page does not qualify under wiki OTHER category below? Please provide an answer asap or escalate this question.
Others[edit source] Shortcut WP:MUSICOTHER Composers and performers outside mass media traditions may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:
1.Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture.
Definition of a source The word "source" when citing sources on Wikipedia has three related meanings:
2.The creator of the work (the writer, journalist)
If this source above isn't credible why do they have a wiki page
ThanksSpiritletters (talk) 18:12, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
It may well be a reliable source but if the articles have been deleted and they are not archived somewhere, (PDFs on your computer are of no use) then we cannot use them to establish notability. You can ask for other opinions at Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Help desk. Theroadislong (talk) 18:56, 6 April 2020 (UTC) I figured they were a reliable source and so did the person that deleted it obviously. Something vitally important is that your initial response to the draft on 2-13-20 coincides with the link source below which was RETRIEVED that same day meaning you or user Sulfurboy would have had to see the article BEFORE it was deleted. It is no coincidence that the article was deleted the SAME day the both of you reviewed this draft sir.
"The Toven". www.sandiegoreader.com. Retrieved 2020-02-13. https://www.sandiegoreader.com/bands/toven-the/
Are you stating that either of you ever saw the article before it was deleted and also, why would a pdf version of the article which is clear evidence be non sufficient? THE BELOW LINK PROVES THAT A ARTICLE EXISTED. "The Toven". www.sandiegoreader.com. Retrieved 2020-02-13.
Please answer before referring me elsewhere because the two of you are heavily involved in this matter and the circumstances to follow. Spiritletters (talk) 19:19, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
I don't know what you are trying to imply here, but even if we could see the sandiegoreader articles it would still not meet the criteria..."Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture". I suggest you get other opinions. Theroadislong (talk) 19:25, 6 April 2020 (UTC) You made the following statement regarding wiki's OTHER category
"if we could see the sandiegoreader articles it would still not meet the criteria..."Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture" However you failed to explain why? was that a personal opinion or fact? You left out important details, I will wait for your response? Thanks Spiritletters (talk) 19:36, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
Because it's a single source, not multiple publications. Theroadislong (talk) 19:39, 6 April 2020 (UTC) Dear Theroadislong
Because its a single source? That's your answer? The OTHER criteria category (below) your referring to does NOT call for multiple sources are you now claiming it does? Its under the OTHER category for a reason. It clearly says ″meet at least ONE of the following criteria″.
Others[edit source] Shortcut WP:NMUSICOTHER Composers and performers outside mass media traditions may be notable if they meet at least one of the following criteria:

You made the statement now please support it with facts hereto. I will wait for you thanksSpiritletters (talk) 19:47, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
The criteria says "publications" plural? Theroadislong (talk) 19:51, 6 April 2020 (UTC) Dear Theroadislong
The criteria says "publications" plural? Yes, it does say ″publications″ but does not specify that those publications have to come from multiple different publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture, now does it? Again it is name the ″other″″ category for a reason right? otherwise the category criteria would not have been created. Please provide a reliable source to verify this other category issue we are having, perhaps direct clarification hereto from another source other than you. I will wait for you. ThanksSpiritletters (talk) 20:04, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) Sorry to butt in here, but two of the links that Spiritletters listed in their first post work fine, and a third one is available through archive.org, so it is easy to verify that they don't come close to WP:SIGCOV and also don't meet the criterion "[i]s frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable music sub-culture". Spiritletters, you will need to find significant coverage in multiple independent sources, not brief and trivial mentions in one and the same publication. The articles and you listed don't constitute significant coverage, they would not do that even if they had all been published in different papers, and the youtube link appears to be one of the musician's songs – not a reference for anything. --bonadea contributions talk 20:09, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
Bonadea,
Butting in or tag teaming is a tactic often used at selectively convent times to shift focus I understand. However, Now that you have butted in
1. please identify by attaching the first two links that you are referring to so I know exactly what your referring to.
2.explain in detail what the wiki ″OTHER″ category is reserved for via example article.
3. Constitute significant coverage? where did that word come from and what is the relation to the ″OTHER″ category criteria which is the topic of our discussion?
4.Other criteria refers to ″Is frequently covered in publications″ says nothing about ″significant coverage″ are we making things up as we go again?
I will wait for a response here where you butted in at. KindlySpiritletters (talk) 21:29, 6 April 2020 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you started
editHello, Spiritletters
Thank you for creating Sagon Penn.
User:North8000, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:
I did the curation / new article review on the article. Nice work! I had to take a good look at notability guidelines and the references for this article for this one. Most likely there should be an article on the event rather than on him. The references are really only about the event and him in the event. You may wish to consider transitioning this to an article about the event and aftermath. But I'm marking this as reviewed, happy editing!
