- I see you added though WikiProject Criminal Biography to David Jassy. But I happen to love David Jassy's work a lot, I mean a loooot, be it in Navigators or in music production work as a Swedish artist. His work particularly with Darin is so precious. I remember the charity song produced by him and hauntingly sung by Darin about bullying called "What If" or the Darin song where Jassy raps Just check the wonderful "Karma". Yes adding to David Jassy WikiProject Criminal Biography was correct, but it pained me so much. I think of him as a great artist and not what he committed at one sad moment of his life. After all, he should be judged by his work mostly. Actually another link to the wonderful "Karma" by Darin and David Jassy is Ilya KnocDown. I smile because I created a page for Ilya KnocDown, a Swedish Iranian producer very early on, and a colleague deleted it as Ilya deemed not notable. But I am delighted it has been reinstated since as Ilya Salmanzadeh by somebody else with far greater success now. By the way, I remember Ilya worked also with Mohombi, another Swedish talent. So on that mentioning of Mohombi, I dedicate to you a song that is becoming a true international success called "Habibi (I Need Your Love" by Shaggy, Mohombi, the Lebanese Australian Faydee and Romanian Costi...

Speedy deletion nomination of Gradur
Hello Werldwayd,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Gradur for deletion, because it seems to be inappropriate for a variety of reasons.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. SS13 15:47, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
About your (non)participation in the January 2012 SOPA vote
Hi Werldwayd. I am Piotr Konieczny (User:Piotrus), you may know me as an active content creator (see my userpage), but I am also a professional researcher of Wikipedia. Recently I published a paper (downloadable here) on reasons editors participated in Wikipedia's biggest vote to date (January 2012 WP:SOPA). I am now developing a supplementary paper, which analyzes why many editors did not take part in that vote. Which is where you come in :) You are a highly active Wikipedian (66th to be exact), and you were active back during the January 2012 discussion/voting for the SOPA, yet you did not chose to participate in said vote. I'd appreciate it if you could tell me why was that so? For your convenience, I prepared a short survey at meta, which should not take more than a minute of your time. I would dearly appreciate you taking this minute; not only as a Wikipedia researcher but as a fellow content creator and concerned member of the community (I believe your answers may help us eventually improve our policies and thus, the project's governance). PS. If you chose to reply here (on your userpage), please WP:ECHO me. Thank you! --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 23:23, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ahzee
The article Ahzee has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Fails WP:MUSIC with only a handful of singles and no indication of any notability. Sources are all WP:PRIMARY and orphaned since 2013.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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. Karst (talk) 12:26, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Oh, soon only one day left until the final of Melodifestivalen 2015, exciting. My favourites are Jon Henrik Fjällgren and Måns Zelmerlöw. But I agree with you that Samir & Viktor would be a fun choice for Vienna.--BabbaQ (talk) 20:41, 12 March 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, I knew about Erika and I am still kind of bumped that she did not win the Irish selection. Her song would have been a much better choice for ESC than the actual winner. I believe however that Måns has a great chance of winning the final in Vienna.--BabbaQ (talk) 22:52, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

The article Raaban has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this newly created biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Tomas e (talk) 17:36, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Nous Model Management
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 Nous Model Management, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
- It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
- It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.
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 "Click here to 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 removed 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Hi! I don't have any informations about release. Actually I know only about music video. Please answer me on my discussion page. Eurohunter (talk) 18:08, 5 May 2015 (UTC) I don't personally have any solid information either whether it is an official release besides the fact that we have an elaborate music video for it by Alec Cartio. What is clear is that it won't be a chart success as "She Makes Me Go" featuring Sean Paul or to some extent "Sex Love Rock n Roll (SLR)" with T-Pain. But since there is a music video, it is clearly promoted more than just a track on Superman. By the way I love Arash ever since I heard "Temptation" by Rebecca Zadig featuring Alex. yes he was known with the mononym Alex when he started as his full name is Alex Arash Labaf. Here is that video by Rebecca Zadig https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx1gAOOt7JM werldwayd (talk) 15:21, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
- I know you are fan of Arash, we was talked about that. We have now information only about music video for song - unfortunately, that all. I think it is one of the bests songs from album. Eurohunter (talk) 15:34, 6 May 2015 (UTC)
- Why you think she is excellent? It is my pseudonym, because I started producing music. It is about music and European affiliation. You can listen my debut song on my YouTune channel (link on my profile), new songs soon. Eurohunter (talk) 16:45, 6 May 2015 (UTC)

Let me know what you think.--BabbaQ (talk) 15:29, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
- I personally think Italy will win. It is a huge song. 1. Italy 2. Sweden 3. Belgium 4. Russia 5. Australia 6. Spain Australia's Guy Sebastian will also score very high as well simply because they are for the first time. But my personal favourites (will not win I'm sure) are Azerbaijan's Elnur Hüseynov, Armenia's Genealogy, Israel's golden boy Nadav Guedj and particularly Montenegro's Knez whose song "Adio" is just wonderful. These stand out as melodic, exotic and simply beautiful.

Proposed deletion of Meltdown (Stromae song)
The article Meltdown (Stromae song) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Not notable per WP:NSONG: minimal coverage in third-party, reliable sources.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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. Adabow (talk) 09:29, 2 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I've reverted your reversion. As per this discussion, most people who cast a vote regarding this subject stated the categories should be kept, since information about his homosexuality is available in reliable sources, which is all that Wikipedia's BLP policies demands for it to be included in an entry. 177.42.182.246 (talk) 16:23, 3 June 2015 (UTC)
- I disagree. The discussion was closed by "remov[ing] the cat per BLP and OTRS ticket #2008020210003368" meaning the categories about sexuality were to be removed. The discussion still stands, but you are reinstating something which with concensus was removed after a very very lengthy discussion. I also see you have introduced further gay references, and these were reversed by another colleague again requesting further discussion in talk. werldwayd (talk) 20:21, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi I am observing that different moderators are visiting my new article on which currently I am working. Is it ok as it is in review phase? when can it be available publicly? And I need suggestions on my article, am I doing right or need improvements? I am new at wikipedia please help. here is the draft on which i am working on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Health_Warehouse
Thanks in advance.
Delete, a handful of minor roles, but doesn't come close to WP:NACTOR in my view. I'm sympathetic to the argument that it's usually harder to find written information on Indian topics than Western ones, but when it's a BLP we're talking about, caution is called for. Subject must have played minor and supporting roles in various films and TV shows, but fails WP:NACTOR and WP:GNG. Mentioned only in passing in cited media articles (which themselves are mostly second-tier sources), and I couldn't locate anything more comprehensive.David 16:46, 7 September 2015 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ManishSrivastava1 (talk • contribs)
Hi, I'm new to wikipedia page creation and see that you have correctly tagged my article "Ray Foulk" as it didn't have references on it. I had planned to put the references on there but you tagged it before I had time to do it. I didn't realise it was necessary to do this immediately.

Draft:Samuel Kumar
While I totally agree that he looks to be non-notable, that isn't an appropriate speedy for Draft space. The A7 lack of significance criterion does not apply outside article space (the A criteria all only apply in Article space). Lack of notability isn't a speedy matter anyway - A7 is for the lower level of lack of significance, which is a claim to something that might be notability (but might not) that could possibly be of encyclopaedic interest. At Draft, the best one can do with something like this is that they'll forget about it for six months, in which case G13 comes in. I don't think even MfD applies to Draft. Only G criteria for vandalism, hoax, copyvio and spam. That's the ones that even the most rabid inclusionist couldn't argue about.... Peridon (talk) 15:12, 5 October 2015 (UTC)

Me personally I basically use 2-3 types of citations only... BTW I loved the musical materials you have put for "The Final Victory" and "History Will Be Written".

- I have visited the Basshunter page and there are excellent citation examples there you can follow and adapt for further citations. I really want to help you, but I don't know how to go by it. If you could be more specific in what you actually need for the page. Thanks. werldwayd (talk) 16:27, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- Sure. As you can see there are different standards. Check data in 16, 5 or 14. Eurohunter (talk) 18:47, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- 5 and 16 are very similar and either can be used. The end result is exactly the same when you compare what actually appears in the references. By the way, as many people edit the page or any page for that matter, various styles will be used even on the same Wikipedia page. The point is to be consistent yourself in your own references. What's also important is to fill in the text are {citations needed} which occur 11-12 times. These are eyesores and need to be filled in and the {citations needed} replaced with proper referencing. werldwayd (talk) 19:55, 12 November 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of I'll Show You (Justin Bieber album)
A tag has been placed on I'll Show You (Justin Bieber album) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
- disambiguates two or fewer extant Wikipedia pages and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
- disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines 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". 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 removed without delay.

Nomination of Robbie Middleton for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Robbie Middleton is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robbie Middleton until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. FreeKnowledgeCreator (talk) 02:35, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
The article Omar Arnaout has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Proposed deletion of Les Fréres Cheminaud
The article Les Fréres Cheminaud has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Searches unsurprisingly found nothing better at all and that's not surprising considering there's even hardly much here.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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. SwisterTwister talk 06:19, 10 December 2015 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Wouter Janssen
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 Wouter Janssen, 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, product, group, service or person 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".

DYK for Hilda Nilsson
On 31 December 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Hilda Nilsson, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that serial killer Hilda Nilsson committed suicide by hanging the same day the courts commuted her death sentence to life imprisonment? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Hilda Nilsson. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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. |
