==Intro and assessment of Muhammad ibn Abd al Wahhab==
[[User:Raqib nizami|Raqib nizami]] ([[User talk:Raqib nizami|talk]]) 09:01, 29 December 2011 (UTC)Every time you and other respective editors point me NPOV and other law,but let me tell you If it is only for Muhammad ibn ab al Wahhab that you can not criticize or tell truth then why not for "Adolf Hitler"!here in wikipidia[1]there is no debate and edit war to say that Hitler is commonly associated with the rise of fascism and the Holocaust in Europe and responsible for world war!then why So much alert and debate on the fact of Muhammad ibn ab al Wahhab tried to reform a new sect(firqa)wahhabism!?When there are so many Historical proof supporting my point. why we cant criticize Muhammad ibn ab al Wahhab when Wikipedia let criticize Even Prophet Muhammad[2]?
==Montessori High School at University Circle==
Hello -- Good Afternoon,

I am confused why you tagged my "Montessori High School at University Circle" page I've created this past hour.  I seemed to be in mid edit when you put in the warnings.

Thanks for what you do!

:Hi. In  some instances, tagging helps draw the creator's attention  to  possible issues while the creators may  still  be logged in  and able to  respond - many  articles, especially  those on  schools, are created by  [[WP:SPA]] who  do  not  return to  their articles which  may  then be subsequently  deleted if the issues are not  addressed. Such  tags are not  necessarily  a criticism  of the article or work  in  progress, and are intended as a help. Thank you  for responding to  the issues; there is however still  the concern that  the references you  supplied are not  [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] and do  not  assert notability  for inclusion  per our [[WP:ORG|criteria for organisations]]. --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 05:06, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

::Thanks for the fast response again.  It doesn't appear I am an [[WP:SPA]], since I have never been to the school or have any affiliation--I'm defined as an independent party.  

::''"references you  supplied are not  [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] and do  not  assert notability  for inclusion  per our [[WP:ORG|criteria for organisations]]."''

::According to your link, a newspaper article is a credible source.  There have been at least three newspaper articles written by the Cleveland Plain Dealer, two of which I linked as my reference.  Do I still need more?

:::Hi. My  apologies if you  misunderstood -  there is a ''big'' difference between [[WP:SPA]] and [[WP:COI]], and I  was just  generalising  on  a major issue concerning  new articles. By  reliable sources, it  is generlly  expected that sources will  be multiple and have extensive coverage; newspapers should be established, not  local, and be at least  of regional,  or in  the USA, of state-wide distribution;  this is of particular importance for schools as they often receive routine mentions in  local  newspapers. [http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2007/09/cleveland_montessori_high_scho.html This] for example, is simply  an  information  piece on  the opening  of the school; at  that  time the school would not  have earned any  notability, while [http://blog.cleveland.com/metro/2009/06/new_high_school_in_university.html this] is little more than advertorial that  again  is only  based on  the school's opening.

Hello, again.  I was able to add in an article out of Tempe, Arizona http://www.azcentral.com/community/tempe/articles/2011/09/23/20110923tempe-district-weigh-montessori-high-school.html, and essentially include about every other source I could possibly find on the new school, as you will see with the spike in sources.

This is very difficult to find additional coverage because the place is a new school.  Can the article remain?  Do I cover the warnings you posted at the top? [[User:Usaf 1832]] ([[User talk:Usaf 1832#top|talk]]) 00:38, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

== Re Create article ==

Hello Kudpung,
We were in touch earlier this year and I started to create an article for The Amazing People Club. [http://www.amazingpeopleclub.com www.amazingpeopleclub.com] At the time we were about to sign deals with Ebsco Publishing, Global Grid for Learning and Pearson Education.  This has all now happened which I believe gives a lot more credentials, PLUS we have been endorsed across the Education Press.
I was about to continue the edits but noticed that another administrator has since deleted our draft.  Can this be re-created or do we have to start a new one.  We will ensure that it is not 'promotional'.  Our list of educational resources has now grown vastly and I feel strongly that we should have a wiki page.
Greatly appreciate your help and support with this project and any advice you can offer along the way.
Thanking you, kind regards, Marion.

I've replied on my talk. [[User:Thryduulf|Thryduulf]] ([[User talk:Thryduulf|talk]]) 19:14, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

== I don't understand. ==

(This is with regard to [[User talk:Dcoetzee#Apprenticeship tools]], but I thought it best to bring it here.)

I don't understand. You have stated that the community trusts ''all'' users by default (which would be a nice ideal, but I'm afraid for example IPs aren't often given the benefit of the doubt and for good reason), and I proposed a rewording to that effect, which highlights the potential shortcomings of an individual rather than saying that most administrators would not be trusted with the functionary tools. But you also disagree with this because (if I am reading this wrong, please correct me) I opposed your RfA? That's a bit of a non-sequitur. My personal trust in any given candidate has nothing to do with this discussion.

Seeing as you passed, it is clear that the community expressed trust in you; that's fine by me. I bear no grudge, nor do I assume bad faith of RfA candidates. But this frustrates me, because it seems like everywhere you have interacted with me (even at the humorous Editor for Deletion page) my comment in your RfA seems to be a sticking point for you. I respect  you and your many efforts to improve the project, and worded my oppose accordingly, as carefully as I could, going so far as to quantify it as a "moral oppose" of sorts, similar to the "this is not the outcome I'm after, but-" moral supports. I simply pointed out what was an impression I had based on what of your opinions I had read and did not intend to sabotage your RfA (or do anything of the sort.)
[[File:P dove peace.png|100px|right]]
I don't know if my feeling that you're aggrieved is correct or not. If it is, I'd dearly like to rectify any bad blood between us. I don't want to feel like I've offended you, and I can assure you that I did not intend to. So... is there anything I can do to help resolve this, or am I making a mountain out of a molehill? [[User talk:Sonia|<span style="color:#CC0099;">sonia</span>]]♫ 23:51, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Sonia, you  can rest  assured that  as an admin and a 62 year old retired professor, I  have a ''very''  thick  skin, and don't  bear grudges. I'm  also  far from  being  the child hater I  was made out  to  be that  nearly  sabotaged my  RfA (while others realising  some voters' errors, retracted their oppose votes). I  have nothing  whatsoever against  young people, I've worked with  them  all  my  life, but  I  do  wish  they wouldn't  all  want  to  be admins or mess with  meta stuff -  aye, there's the rub, they'll all be stampeding for one of Dcoetzee halloween hats! What we need is to repair the current system, and that begins with honest, well researched  voting. No hard feelings, and I would very much like to see you participating more often at RfA :) --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 00:05, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Hi Kudpung. This is a courtesy note that your support in [[Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/MichaelQSchmidt 2]] is not recorded in your contributions. It was oversighted because an earlier post by another user contained an inappropriate link about a similarly named individual as the candidate.

:Sorry  Cunard but  this explanation is inadequate. A total of 29 votes/comment  were oversigted. On whose authority? Who  oversighted it? Why  has there been no  explanation  provided on  the RfA's talk  page?

:::Hi Cusop. I  did not  find it  mysterious at  at  all. I  perceived what  I  considered at  the time to  be another instance of unnecessary tracking  my  edits. Based on my  revert of an edit  you  made on  a  page following  [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:St._Ann%27s_Well,_Malvern&diff=447287286&oldid=446544108 comment  by  Gyromagician]  that  you  left unanswered  until three months and nine days until I  restored the reference, it seemed to me you had followed on by  commenting on and/or reverting edits  on  [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Talk:Malvern,_Worcestershire&diff=464353430&oldid=464348441 another page] that I  have contributed to -  which  did not in  my  opinion demonstrate good faith.  Having noticed  that I and Gyro are among the main  contributors to  an entire suite of Malvern articles that  includes at  least  two  GAs, you  could have come to  a user talk  page with  something  such  as ''Hi Kudpung/Gyro, I've noticed that  you  frequently  use a reference to Rose Garrard on Malvern related articles that  might not  in  some circumstances, be a reliable source, can you  tell  me why you feel  it  is?'' and if you  had, you  would have received a warm  and friendly  reply.  Nevertheless, as I do appreciate your concerns for accuracy, here is a complete list of pages that might concern Garrard references:  [[Edward Elgar]], ‎[[Venice Biennale]], [[Malvern, Worcestershire]], [[Great Malvern]], [[Barnards Green]], [[North Malvern]],  ‎[[Malvern water]], [[Rose Garrard]]. [http://www.malverngazette.co.uk/news/6202336.New_book_outlines_history_of_Malvern/ This reference] may ultimately satisfy your curiosity about Garrard, while  [[Talk:Kevin Brown (author)|this discussion]] (almost  all  of it) will illustrate not  only  my  personal  concern for accurate referencing, but  also  how I normally engage in  discussions about  them. If you  want  some examples of incivility  on  Wikipedia, [[User talk:Badger Drink#Reblock request |I can provide some]] (and which  are sadly  tolerated even by  some of those those empowered to  delrev them). In deference to your request, however, and based on  what  seems to  have been an unfortunate concourse of circumstances, I will modify the statement that you find so offensive, and perhaps we can both get  back to  a more collegial  approach to  editing and communicating.

== Douglas House School Malvern ==
I have recently been in touch with a Thai friend who attended Douglas House School Malvern, as I did, from 1955 -57.
I have been piecing together the history of the school  and know it was sold to Malvern College in 1974 and was rebuilt as the Lindsay Arts Centre.
I am interested in its earlier history  - did the school transfer to Malvern (as several schools did) during wartime from the south coast. I know it was founded in 1944 by Mrs Owen -Williams.
The Thai connection is also interesting as several girls attended the school from Siam (Thailand) and lodged at Homestead in Assarts Rd Malvern Wells.
Any additional information you have would be gratefully received

:::::There's no  harm  in tagging  an article for deletion as long  as it's clearly within the policies and guidelines -  in  fact  it ''should'' be done, and the actual criteria are quite clear. What  isn't  easy  to  understand is that  A7 for example, isn't to  be used if there a re reasonsable claims to  notability  even if there are no  refs. A company  that  claims 'We are the largest  supplier of nails in  the eastern hemisphere and we've won  awards for hitting  the nail  on  the head with  our marketing' might  be telling  the truth, although  it's spammy, and needs rewriting  for neutrality  and proving. On the other hand, a garage band that  claims 'We  are the biggest  band in  [[Bell End]] (easily true) and we've played in  all  the pubs in  Worcestershire (easily true), and have   and have 30,000 hits to  our YouTube' (easily true) probably  isn't notable, and a quick  Google search  will  soon see if they  meet [[WP:BAND]].  The best  thing to  do if you're not  sure which  criterion to  use is to  leave it  for someone else, or PROD it. The main thing  is to  do  some basic research  before tagging  anything. This is where there is often some misunderstanding - it  doesn't  mean stopping  and rewriting  the article for the creator (although  I  do  a lot  of that  too!) - most articles that arrive at special:new pages are created by [[WP:SPA]] who will never become regular editors.

Dr. Blofeld is making articles such as [[S.B. Jones]] and [[J.Y. MacFadyen]] and [[G.C.H. Thomas]] etc.. etc.. and someone is deleting the article and turning it into a redirect.  A user has done this to many of Blofeld’s articles.  Is this vandalism?  Go through Blofeld’s contribs it is surprising how many new articles have been turned into a redirect.  Users who turn perfectly good articles into redirects repeatedly should be blocked for vandalism.[[User:Msruzicka|Msruzicka]] ([[User talk:Msruzicka|talk]]) 01:36, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

Have you ever considered posting at [[WP:Rewards board]] calling for people to help reduce the new-article backlog? Maybe this will help the now-growing backlog and give Pesky a helping hand. Talking Pesky, I think she's on and off these days and so that might be the reason in the backlog's expansion. 

Another question, is Udon Thani the place where the USAF launched bombers and fighters against North Vietnam during the War?

:The only  thing that  would adequately  address the issue of the backlog  at  AfC now would be  the implementation  either of [[WP:ACTRIAL]] or to  resume development  of the Article Creation  Flow. The WMF refused to  implement  the former, created the latter instead but  don't  appear to  have  done any more development  on  it  for months.  I'm  surprised Pesky's still  with  Wikipedia at all after the insults and constant  hounding  she's had to  put  up  with. I think  the way  she's been treated is disgusting.

== Plaistow County Grammar School ==

Thanks for your offer of help, Kudpung.  I have commented on the Editor assistance request that it seems I cannot use the image of the 1930 magazine - which is unfortunate.  The article I am writing grew out of someone's request for information on famous former pupils.  My attention was drawn to the [[Newham Sixth Form College]] article with its short list, and I began adding to it.  I created [[Plaistow Grammar School]] and [[Plaistow County Grammar School]] with redirects, but I didn't do much to the NewVic article and it seemed to me that the pupils had nothing to do with NewVic.  I then resolved to write an article for Plaistow County Grammar School.  The main purpose was as a vehicle for the expanding list of former pupils but as I discovered more about the school the article grew.  When the article is published I will delete the list that is on NewVic.  I have a couple of paragraphs to add to "my" article when/if I receive a good reply from the Royal Air Force, otherwise I want to publish it as it is at present, and then add further former pupils as and when I research them.  The NewVic article is incorrect - the school was a municipal school called Plaistow Secondary School (NOT Plaistow Municipal Secondary School), and this changed to Plaistow Grammar School in 1945 as a result of the 1944 Education Act (it did NOT change in 1944) - and I will make these changes shortly.  Regarding "my" article, frustratingly I CANNOT find when the word County was added to the name and I CANNOT get other pupils to confirm precisely when 'Deo Confidimus' was introduced as the motto and when it was dropped for 'Power to the People'.  I therefore have to use words like "subsequently" and "later".  We (a group of former pupils) have the original admissions registers for 1926 to 1959 and, when digitised, these will be presented to the local authority for its archive.  Your help with the article will be gratefully received, especially since you have done such a good job in polishing the NewVic article.  Please, however, for now comment on my talk page rather than make the changes yourself.  Many thanks. [[User:LenF54|LenF54]] ([[User talk:LenF54|talk]]) 16:49, 18 December 2011 (UTC)

I do not intend to get involved in edit wars over commas etc, but I do want to get the article "live" asap so I can get other former pupils to look at it and offer comment, criticism or additional material.  Our yahoo group is aware of the article and making suggestions, which is where the idea for using the 1st edition of the school magazine came from.  I do want to go through the current list of former pupils and add citations to a few, and I will do that to my Word copy.

:::Thanks for the recent work, and finding a usable image of the badge, but it looks like we are going to fall out.  If the article cites a reason for changing from Secondary to Grammar (the Education Act of 1944) why shouldn't it show the reason for changing from Grammar to Comprehensive?  The text is there in the Wikipedia article [[Comprehensive school]], and I found and added the 10/70.  It is all factual and relevant.  I didn't feel the House colours were important but I can add them - although there won't be a citation of a source.  I agree entirely on the examination "successes" and university - it is an area I had in mind to remove.  The original list of notable former pupils on the [[Newham Sixth Form College]] article had only Price, Hayes, Jenkins and Glester - none of whom had articles or citations.  No-one removed them from the list.  In some cases I can provide citations; in some I cannot.  I will still list the pupils.  More later.

== Question ==

I suspect it's probably obvious from a couple of my posts elsewhere, but I am seriously thinking about submitting a [[WP:RFA|request for adminship]] at some point in the next six months. There are a number of reasons why I think I'd like to be an administrator. First, I have a strong interest in the [[WP:DP|deletion process]] and would like to partake in reviewing [[WP:CSD|speedy nominations]], [[WP:PROD|prodded pages]] (after they've run their course), [[WP:AFD|AfD listings]], and so on. I also want to prevent [[CAT:RFU|this category]] from becoming backlogged too frequently. Yeah I know those are only two things (well, OK, the first I listed is a pretty broad category), but I'd love to help out in an administrative capacity someday. I'm not interested in [[WP:ADCO|admin coaching]], and I don't see attaining adminship as the "be all, end all" of my time here. I have been contributing to Wikipedia as a registered user since 2008 and have made over 3000 edits throughout that time. I was offered a nomination for adminship by two editors back in 2009, but I refused. I want to hear your opinion &mdash; aside from having a higher edit count, is there anything I need to improve on before applying for adminship? I know I may not like the answer I get, but I'm ready to hear the honest truth. I'm sorry for burdening you with my questions, but I could use some advice.

== Nuke? ==

For tagging users involved in the IEP, I was running a bot ([[User:Manishbot]]). Unfortunately, I was using an older version of the Java framework, which wasn't too compatible with the new MediaWiki. So, one of the methods (the one that checks if a user account is registered or not) was malfunctioning, and this wasn't caught in the trial. This means that the bot has tagged [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Special%3ANewPages&namespace=2&tagfilter=&username=Manishbot lots of userpages which don't have a corresponding user]. Note that not ''all'' of those pages are user-less, there are plenty of userpages that have a corresponding user (who proabably neglected to add anything to his/her userpage).<BR/>
Basically, I want to ask if you could [[Special:Nuke]] all new pages (All new User: pages if possible) created by the bot. I'm asking you as you have already been involved in the IEP cleanup, and also you patrol NPP, so you may be more familiar with the tool.

The only reason we know is because he found that out, otherwise it would have been sprung on us sometime in the future (Just how the IEP was sprung on us!). Do you think that such a proposal is necessary, or would it be going overboard?

Remove? Nah, just moved it to my archives. I don't remove anything from my talkpage. 

Anyhow, I still say I disagree with the academic, but I've looked at it again and I can see why you think it's notable. I really don't think so, but it's your call, of course. 

The school- because I can't list it under A7, I listed under the "other"- somebody removed it; I would need to take it to AfD, I guess, but I won't bother. --[[User:Braniff747SP|Axel™]] ([[User talk:Braniff747SP|talk]]) 04:41, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

:No need to take anything directly to AfD. If a page doesn't fit a CSD criterion, [[WP:PROD|PROD]] it -  if the PROD is removed by  the creator without  addressing  the issue(s), it  will  then be taken to  AfD. Remember though,  that  schools are rarely  deleted, the usual  practice is to [[WP: redirect| redirect]]  non  notable schools (elementary) to  the article about  the school district (USA) or to the locality (rest of the world);  high  schools are almost  always kept.  [[WP:NPP]] is a crucial  function  at  Wikipedia, and we need to  get  it  right,  and if you're not  sure, just  pass on  to  the next  new page, someone else will  tag what  you  leave.

== A deleted article about myself... ==

Hello,

I recently was sent a link to a wikipedia page that was about me... I am in no way shape or form a significant figure, therefore I shouldn't have any wiki page made about me. Anyways, I saw that you deleted it, and I wanted to know if there was a way to see the page, to make sure that it wasn't harassing me or speaking of me in a negative nature. Also, is there a way to track where the article came from, and who made it? Thank you.

:Hi. I  can do  most  of this for you (except release the page to you), but  to  trace it I  need to  know either: the title of the article as it appeared in  Wikipedia (probably your full name), the link you were sent, or the Wikipedia user name of the contributing  editor who  created the article. Note that all  Wikipedia contributors operate either under their IP number, or under a user name - unless they  have registered under their real  name (which is extremely rare), we do  not  have their real  names. Rest  assured however, that if the page has been deleted, only admins (like me) or higher, are able to  view deleted material. Regards, --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 06:15, 25 December 2011 (UTC)

::The full name of the article is "Sarah Hennessey". The link that was sent to me was "en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Hennessey" I cannot seem to find an IP number on the page.

:::Hi Sarah. The article was extremely short (five lines) and had absolutely no egregious content - indeed, it  spoke of you  as '...one of many talented singers and performers in the school.' A referenced source was provided to [http://www.kansascity.com/2011/12/02/3298400/school-notes.html this newspaper article]. The article was created by  an editor  who  appears to  specialise in performing  arts topics and their other edits are in  order. I  have the page title on  my  watchlist and if it  is recreated I  will  make a decision, notwithstanding  that if your notability is established per [[WP:BLP]], and the content is perfectly neutral,  there is little that can be done towards having it removed,  although you would be able to edit  any content  yourself for accuracy.

==Hi Kudpung==
I have absolutely no idea what to do which is why i sought assistance which Melbourne Star kindly provided. Can this not be done by an admin? Out of curiousity i just had a look at the bio of Deep Purple (Ritchie Blackmore's former band), and noticed yet more examples, [[User:Lane]] edits Ritchie Blackmore, French actresses ([[Renée Adorée]]) and Tennessee politics ([[Tennessee House of Representatives]]), the previous editor, [[User:Laod]] edits Ritchie Blackmore, French actresses ([[Emmanuelle Béart]]) and Tennessee politics {[[Bob Corker]] the same page that two editors i previously listed}. Thats maybe 15 editors i have come across on the same three subjects of Blackmore, French actresses, and Tenneessee politics.[[User:GrampsSydney|GrampsSydney]] [[User talk:GrampsSydney|(talk)]] 12:25, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

:Admins can summarily  block  a clear, simple case of sockpuppetry that  they  are familiar with, but  this one is more complex and will most probably need a [[WP:Checkuser]] investigation. Please go  to  [[WP:SPI]] to  file a regular sockpuppet  report and follow the instructions carefully; the SPI  clerk will  then decide what  to  do. If you get  stuck, ask  me again. --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 01:36, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

== Requested Move result ==

You recently closed the [[Talk:Parenthood (1989 film)#Requested Move|RM discussion]] we had on moving [[Parenthood]] to [[Parenthood (1989 film)]].  I appreciate the help, but there is one slight issue.  During the discussion it was suggested that we change the proposed name to [[Parenthood (film)]] dropping the 1989, since there are no other notable films named ''Parenthood''.  I attempted to update the proposed name, but perhaps it didn't occur in time before you closed the discussion.  Are you able to make this quick adjustment, or should I start a new discussion?  Thanks, [[User:GoneIn60|GoneIn60]] ([[User talk:GoneIn60|talk]]) 16:58, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Been there. Done that.Bought the T-Shirt. Unfortunately when others revert such edits there is only one way forward. AFD. Sad but true. So here we are.  [[User:Fmph|Fmph]] ([[User talk:Fmph|talk]]) 11:49, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

:Actually, such  reverting  isn't  quite so  commonplace. Also, to  save all  the unnecessary  bureaucracy, if you  are deeply  concerned that  such  articles must  be deleted, you  could consider PRODiing  them. As most  school  articles are created by WP:SPA anyway, who  never come back, the articles will be procedurally  deleted at  the simple click  of an admin's mouse without  all  the discussion and any  further research  or even needing  to open  the page concerned. . Again, it's quite rare for such  PROD deletions to  be contested, and if they are, a refund is just  as easy, and ''then'' the thing  can be sent  to  AfD. --[[User:Kudpung|Kudpung กุดผึ้ง]] ([[User talk:Kudpung#top|talk]]) 12:14, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
::I did consider that but felt on reflection that  AFD was the simpler course of action. [[User:Fmph|Fmph]] ([[User talk:Fmph|talk]]) 13:28, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
