Dear Theroadislong |
|||
Hope you are fine and doing good. |
|||
I am requesting for a review again as the major comment for rejection/decline of this article was its Reference section or having less references. Now, the draft has been updated, and more than 20 solid references have been employed, with more historical details, and best possible bibliographic support in the light of the available literature. This single page article is now having over 25 appropriate references, and are strengthened with new data. |
|||
Your anticipation in this regard will be highly appreciated. |
|||
Sincere Regards |
|||

|||
Dear Theroadislong |
|||
Thank you very much for your prompt response. |
|||
The objected references (facebook) has been udpated with the departmental URLS (links to the webpages). I think, these were the most up to dated and regularly updating references. Moreover, the last paragraph was deleted, because the book describing the paragraph and the mentioned material is in press (which is written by Dr. Ikram), and once the book got published, the three to four lines paragraph will be inserted again. |
|||
I do hope, that the draft will get approved now and will get online, as after coming across other such articles, this one seems to be far better than those. |
|||
Your prompt and positive anticipation in this regard will be highly appreciated. |
|||
Thanking you in anticipation |

Sincere Regards |

== Cornshed sisters draft == |
|||
Hi! |
|||
I drafted a page which was declined for publication. I was wondering if you had any thoughts on why and how to fix it. The page was clearly of interest - this is a band with two albums, that has appeared on a film soundtrack and on the BBC, whose members are present or former members of well-known bands - so I can't see the issue. But I'd appreciate a bit of guidance to resolve it. |
|||
Thanks. |

== Comment on my draft == |
||
Hey, |
|||
Hi. You rejected my article because you believed it sounded more like an advertisement than an article. I disagree, and unfortunately you have given no facts in support of your opinion. This is, in itself, a violation of first principles of Wikipedia, regarding the emphasis of evidence over opinion. So, here are my facts. First, let's look at the article. Why does it seem like advertising? There is only factual information here---it has information attesting to the importance of the Festival (an essential qualification for Wikipedia articles), about the origins of the festival, and some brief information about the fifteen-year history of the festival, including its leadership and the highlights of their contributions, as well as mentions some of the more significant productions. In no way does it advertise upcoming seasons. That is exactly the sort of information that I would write (on a different scale) if I were preparing an article on any theatre company. Second, while I find it distasteful to cite my credentials as point of debate, it seems necessary in this case, because you have effectively suggested that I do not know how to write an article about a theatre company. I don't know upon what basis you have made this judgement, because you simply deleted my work with that sneer about advertising and without offering a single helpful comment. But the fact is that I certainly do know what an article about a theatre company needs. I am a full professor at Queen's University, I have a PhD in Drama and have edited a great number of encyclopedia articles and written contributions to various journals. So, please tell me about the factual basis upon which you have made your decision and perhaps you would also be so good as to explain what your credentials are to make this judgement.

|||
Thank you. You will understand, I hope, why it is difficult to assume good faith when a whole article is rejected without any specifics offered. But I am grateful for your helpful alterations.[[User:Craig Walker|Craig Walker]] ([[User talk:Craig Walker|talk]]) 18:37, 25 December 2017 (UTC) |

I recently saw your comment on my draft. I would like to say that I am aware that youtube is generally speaking not a reliable source, however i tried to avoid using youtube as a source except when discussing equipment, where as far as I know, footage can generally be considered a source. |
|||
== Draft for Shehab Khan == |
|||
Additionally, in my references using youtube(source 6, 7, 8 and 9(which 8 and 9 are the same source)), 6 is directly from the CGTN africa channel, 7 is from CCTV channel 7, and 8/9 is a reupload from the chinese MOD. |
|||
Hi, |
|||
If i have to, i am willing to remove the equipment section as a whole if the sources are still not considered reliable. |

== Review of Maurice Molarsky page == |
|||
This has been done - I was just wondering if you could possibly have another read and see if the article is now acceptable? |
|||
I understand why you would reject this page, based on the information submitted thus far. We have not yet uploaded the main section about his career. Molarsky was one of the best known portrait painters in Philadelphia during the first half of the 20th century, and his work is currently held by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Woodmere Gallery, the Princeton University Art Museum, and numerous private collectors. His work regularly comes up for auction in the Northeast US: |

== Tor Madira Machier == |
|||
Dear Theroadsilong, |
|||
Thanks for reviewing the article I created, Tor Madira Machier. However, to my surprise, I see that the article is rejected. As I did, I mentioned independence sources such as the Sudan Tribune, and Tor's own blog. I wrote the article because Tor has attracted the attention of thousands of South Sudanese readership in recent years. |
|||
Thanks |

== Gold Medal for Italian Architecture == |

Dear Theroadislong, the Gold Medal for Italian Architecture is wide known internationally as the most important architectural prize in Italy. Strange enough most of the available references I know are in Italian language. I'm trying to collect more. as much as I can at least. in order to re publish the article with more comprehensive data. In any case I suggest you to consider that the entire argument "Triennale di Milano" is treated in wikipedia eng in a very curious way as it looks like we are speaking of museum or a local institution while instead The Triennale is the most important cultural institution for art, design and architecture promotion of Italy. If you may and have time, please help me to correct all this issue.

Even though the nickname of the Jiaolong commandos is much more common, I have seen that it is also sometimes known as the 7th Marine Brigade, especially on some chinese websites, and the chinese wikipediia article along with red links on english wikipedia use the same name. I would prefer that the draft keep the name of the 7th marine brigade and have a redirect of Jiaolong commandos instead as it just simply is a more official name.

Hi, Theroadislong-- |
|||
Hi Theroadislong! I have recently uploaded a draft of the article "Admitad" here and you have declined it. Could you kindly explain what can I do to make it right? Is it possible to work with you as my mentor on the draft? Or, maybe, you can help with writing, could you kindly tell me what is the best option? |
|||
admitad is a global company, it already helps over 630,000 people worldwide. I believe, that it needs to be on Wikipedia. |
|||
I have edited the article about the American painter Maurice Molarsky (1885-1950), which you reviewed. I have provided citations from archival and web sources to demonstrate his stature as an award-winning portrait painter whose was displayed in many leading galleries and is now part of the permanent collections of several important museums. |

My question concerns Draft: Logic Sticks (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Logic_Sticks). As per Wikipedia’s need for significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondarysources that are independent of the subject— Logic Sticks are an emerging skill toy which have their own website, social media (I know, off-limts for WP referencing) but have yet to have their coverage in academic journals or other approved media. What should I do? For full disclosure, I am working towards a brief set by my client, the creator of Logic Sticks, Mitchell John but want to put forward a stub (or possibly an article) worthy of the well-meaning, and nobler, aims of this encyclopaedia. |

Hello! I was wondering if I could have a bit of an assist with your comments on the article I created on the IPSF. I already wrote the wikipedia pole sports article with a variety of academic sources. As I wrote that article, I realized that other sports federations have pages but not the IPSF. I wanted to create a quick simple article that gave basic statistics on this federation. I looked at other sports federation pages and they mostly discuss such facts as well as any historical controversies. I edited my article to add in academic sources like peer-reviewed journal articles as background but the details of that are in the pole sports general page. Since this is a relatively new federation there is not much to write about controversies. I now reference some media sources, as pole sports getting GAISF observer status made some headlines. Can you please let me know what I am doing wrong or if this is sufficient. Thanks! [[User:Dmfennell|Dmfennell]] ([[User talk:Dmfennell|talk]]) 22:09, 28 December 2017 (UTC)dmfennell |

== Notability and verification...? == |
|||
Thank you for your feedback on my submission for Texas Consilium. I have reviewed the notability requirements and am trying to better understand the disconnect and your concerns so I can take appropriate actions. |
|||
From my perspective, the recognition of Texas Consilium by the State of Texas with the State's own House Resolution HR 922 dedicated to Texas Consilium, read on the House floor and published in the House record on behalf of a state representing 28 million people, would constitute "notable." As I understand the Wikipedia guidelines, this recognition by the State of Texas would constitute published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of Texas Consilium. |
|||
It is unclear to me whether the concern is that this does not constitute notable, or whether this notability of HR 922 is not adequately verified by the referencing, or if I am missing the standards in some other way. Would you kindly provide further insight and guidance for me? Thank you. |

Sorry, but I couldn't figure out how to add a comment to our existing talk dialog so I've copied and pasted it here for reference. |

You said "I’m not sure what this is [3]" and I wonder if that confusion might be the root issue here, since [3] is the key documentation presented here for the notability of Texas Consilium. [3] is the .gov official online publishing verification of the resolution by the State of Texas, documenting the State's evaluation of the importance of Texas Consilium to the State of Texas and Texas Consilium's impact on the economy of the State. The State of Texas is independent of Texas Consilium, was published as a representation of the 28 million residents of Texas, and this entire resolution is dedicated to Texas Consilium. While many organizations can be discussed in journals, magazines, books and other commercial publications, we are not aware of another business improvement organization that has received this level of published recognition by the State of Texas, or any other state government. |
|||
If we clarified the importance and this meaning of [3] in the article, would this be helpful? |

== My Milan Diekman draft == |

I've submitted a draft which you then declined for obvious reasons so I improved it and resubmitted it, then you declined it again with the exact same message. So I changed it again with the exact same structure another (accepted) page had, and I also addressed the problems in my draft (according to your message) head-on and re-submitted my draft again. Now you've declined it once again, which I don't mind, but I'd just like to know the reasons why because I feel like I can't do anything with the message you've send me three times now. Thanks in advance. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:LucaKlijn|LucaKlijn]] ([[User talk:LucaKlijn#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/LucaKlijn|contribs]]) 13:37, 5 January 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Hello, thank you for your comments.

Regarding notability and verifiability, a lot of the facts in the biography are recorded: e.g. books and articles published. Would you suggest I ask him to try again, sticking only to these 'published' facts? Would you rather he actually published it, rather than me? |

However the code is now gone, and I am afraid if I create it, Hut 8.5 will just speedy delete it again. What should I do? |

Dear Theroadislong, |
|||
I wanted to let you know that I have been working very hard on this article and I have made all the changes you requested. I have also been studying how other wikipedia articles look like and I think that finally my article is starting to look like it should to be approved by you. I also added some citations, by the way. In conclusion, I have been doing my research and homework and I think you will find this new article to be much more aligned with the wikipedia style articles. |
|||
I wanted to ask your advice on something. I have found some relevant foreign language articles about the doctor. Do you think I should include them? |
|||
Finally, I wanted to ask you if I could get the article publishsed as is and then I can continue to add on it over time. |
|||
Can you let me know? :-) |
|||
I look forward to your feedback, and thank you for everything! |

== Reply to list of CEDM artists edit == |
|||
Hello, |
|||
I am replying to your message sent to me earlier. I do not understand why you revised my edit back to your previous redirect. I clearly explained why I was taking down the redirect and that I was going to revise the page. I went to submit 8 hours' worth of edits just now only to have them completely erased due to your edit in the meantime. The current redirect is to a page that lists artists who claim to be Christian whom have produced EDM-type music. The redirect page is not a list of CEDM artists. These are two different things. The page that this is redirecting to is a mess anyways. Many of the listed artists are decades removed from their last production of Christian EDM music. Many of the listed artists are even improperly categorized under what that page does represent. The redirect page has completely outdated sources too. This page would be better off taken down than redirected there because, as of currently, it is spreading false information by redirecting the readers there. <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Newens|Newens]] ([[User talk:Newens#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Newens|contribs]]) 23:21, 13 January 2018 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

== Nancy Wilson (basketball coach) == |
|||
I am interested in the history of [[Nancy Wilson (basketball coach)]], plus I want to see if I screwed something up by interrupting. |
|||
I do a fair amount of editing, but I haven't been involved in the review process, so I don't know the protocols. |
|||
I stumbled across this for reasons I'm not now remembering, but I wanted to work on it because of my interest in the subject matter. |
|||
I see that you initially rejected this when it was in a sandbox, but, to your credit, you quickly apologized when you realized you misunderstood the subject of the draft. |
|||
I confess I am puzzled that you decided to move it to draft space (was there a request that I missed?) and then immediately rejected it. I agree it wasn't ready at the time for article space, but it isn't clear to me that moving it to draft space was useful. Am I missing something? |
|||
The original editor clearly did not (initially) know how to do refs, but figured it out and largely fixed them, but did not know how to remove the redundancies. Unfortunately, the editor hasn't edited since then. I hope they aren't disillusioned, but they did not enable email, so I don't know how to contact them. |
|||
I did some minor editing, and checked just about every reference to make sure it supported the text. IMO, it is fine now, so I moved it to artivle space. However, I see a template suggesting it is still part of the review process – am I right you are the reviewer? So Im writing this to determine next steps. |

:{{u|Sphilbrick}}, just a few comments; we almost always move drafts from the user sandbox into the Draft space; it had been submitted for review, so Theroadislong did not "move and immediately decline". As far as I can tell it was never in the article space until you moved it. As far as "the editor hasn't edited since then" goes, they resubmitted the draft for review, and many draft-submitters do not edit after they have done so. As far as you moving it to the article space, you should remove the various AFC templates after moving a draft to Article space; if you add yourself to the [[WP:AFCP|AFCH list]] you'll be able to use the script which does it automatically. |

Hi Theroadislong, |

I removed your CSD template on [[Truebil]].

==[[University of the People]]== |
|||
Hello, |
|||
I read your note on why you undid my edits on [[University of the People]]. I do not understand what is considered "promotional material" that I have referenced. My edits referenced 3rd party news sources (i.e. New York Times) as well as primary sources. My additions reflect factual articulation agreements that have been made between the University of the People and UC-Berkeley, University of Edinburgh, and NYU-Abu Dhabi. This is not promotional, but explain how it is in your opinion? |
|||
Additionally, you undid an edit which I added the fee for transfer credit under the [[University_of_the_People#Tuition|Tuition section]]. What is wrong with that? |
|||

== RE: Article on Susan Merdinger == |
|||
I am writing to get some clarity on why the citations of "COI" and "Payment" for this article have appeared above the Article on Susan Merdinger. |
|||
I represent Susan Merdinger, as Wikipedia user SusanGreene. However, neither I nor Ms. Merdinger created this article, or paid for it and have no relationship to whomever composed it. |
|||
I did, however, make a recent very minor correction/addition to the article at the request of Susan Merdinger to honor a notable musician who was omitted from the list of collaborators by the original Wiki editor, and do not feel that the article should be flagged or taken down as a result, when clear notability of the subject of the article is established with verifiable sources. |
|||
The addition of these flags or citations at the top is a source of concern for the subject of the article, Ms. Merdinger, because it is potentially damaging to her reputation and integrity. It would be better not to have the article at all. However, I have no idea how to remove either the citations at the top of the article or the article itself. |
|||
Now, the article is reduced to a stub and most pertinent biographical and career information has been removed, which is what I think may have prompted the flag about "notability" to be inserted automatically. |
|||
Please advise and make a recommendation. |
|||

:I removed unreferenced puffery and added the notability tag because the article doesn't make it clear why she is notable. Wikipedia has essentially no interest in anything you want to say about your client. It is only interested in what people who have no connection with her have chosen to publish about her.

== In regards to the update to Ken Ham == |
|||
Dear Mr. Theroadislong, |
|||
The Reason for my update to the page on Ken Ham was to remove information that gave away an obvious bias of the writer, as "what science(supposedly)" tells us has nothing to do with what Ken Ham believes. It is an evolutionists attempt to propogate his beliefs as something other than what they are (certainly not science), as such defining factors of (macro)-evolution, to which he is referring, are not repeatable or testable. As the theoretical physicist Dr. Michael Ebifegha specifically states in regards to those studying evolutionary ancestry, the study of the origins of DNA ¨do not (fall under the purview of science), because this event is not testable and repeatable¨ (xii). My reason for looking at the page in the first place is because I am writing a "Thesis" (not actually that long) on "Evolution in the Public Schools", and it deeply disturbed me that someone would so blatantly blur the lines between relevance and irrelevance, science and philosophy. What is sad is how many ignorant people are deceived by these claims that Macro-evolution is a scientific fact. It matters not if a large majority of specialist scientists agree with the model, it is still a belief. 75% of Americans are Christians, according to a recent poll, but it is still a belief- faith, the defining factor of religion. |
|||
In know you are dedicated to the informational quality of every page on wikipedia, and this addition lowered such vastly. |
|||
Anyways, thank you for your concern. I recognize I should have explained myself more fully originally (rather than just saying "removed irrelevant information". |
|||
Good day, sir. I hope you will consider returning what I edited.<!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/66.11.109.96|66.11.109.96]] ([[User talk:66.11.109.96#top|talk]]) 00:01, 25 January 2018 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Xsign --> |

:[[User talk:Johnuniq]] reverted your edit with the summary “an encyclopedia has to record the facts as known,” I'm afraid Wikipedia has a bias for reality and mainstream science, by policy and we adjust the weight of articles according to the mainstream and scientific views of relevant experts in the field, supported with reliable sources ([[WP:RS]]). Macro-evolution is a scientific fact it has absolutely nothing to do with "belief". You might be better off editing at Conservapedia.

Didn't a tiny bell ring somewhere? It is an unmistakeable G11, and should be immediately deleted as such (please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that once nominated for speedy, a page can be deleted under any applicable criterion?). What's the next step here? [[User:Justlettersandnumbers|Justlettersandnumbers]] ([[User talk:Justlettersandnumbers|talk]]) 18:13, 26 January 2018 (UTC) |
|||
::{{re|Justlettersandnumbers}} Unfortunately, no. [[WP:G11]] is only for ''text'' that is exclusively promotional. It does not cover promotional ''intent'', because intent is sometimes hard to prove and thus easy to abuse. The next step is blocking the editor for the username violation and taking the article to AFD if you believe the subject not notable enough to warrant an article. Deletion of articles on notable subjects merely because they started out as part of promotional editing violates [[WP:PRESERVE]] and would be against the interest of our readers who don't care how an article started as long as it now neutrally informs them about the subject.

::::Well, yes, sort of ... except that that is not how the G11 criterion is defined: [[WP:G11|"This applies to pages that are exclusively promotional and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to conform with Wikipedia:NOTFORPROMOTION"]]. That doesn't say anything about '''text''', nor does it say that advertisements shoved into Wikipedia by commercial interests are not "exclusively promotional" – in fact, our definition '''exactly''' describes the page you declined to delete. Anyway, I've already reported the editor and an apparent sock, {{noping|Sonyatvnash}}, to [[WP:UFAA]], and will doubtless send the page to AfD if no-one beats me to it.

Hi. Please don't delete the article Netta Eames. She is was the editor of a well known and historic magazine and recognized writer. She was effectively the mother in law of the author Jack London along with being his mentor and promoter as a writer in his early years. It's a bit of a skeleton right now, but I hope to be growing it in the next day or two. Please view my profile. I have a longstanding participation at WP and a good reputation. I have been less involved lately, but in the early days was very involved in developing the notability guidelines and am deeply devoted to the project. I would not include an article which is detrimental to the best interest of the project. Hopefully with the spirit of collaboration among other editors we can build this to very meaningful article. Best regards! --[[User:Kevin Murray|Kevin Murray]] ([[User talk:Kevin Murray|talk]]) 17:50, 6 February 2018 (UTC) |

:: Bummer. I guess being fairly immersed in Jack London research right now, I see her as important to the story, but too much to be merged into his article. In the context of early San Francisco, California and turn of that century culture, she is notable. But in the greater context of life today, maybe not so much. Maybe think on this as a less egregious violation of the guidelines and doing an old wiki-has-been a favor.

== UCTV Page == |

Hello, I'm the assistant operations manager for UCTV and one of my tasks is to update our long neglected Wikipedia page. It appears you removed the majority of the page claiming it was promotional. A list of our departments and their series hardly seems promotional to me and I'm very confused as to why it was removed. Thanks [[User:UCTVOpsAssistant|UCTVOpsAssistant]] ([[User talk:UCTVOpsAssistant|talk]]) 21:11, 6 February 2018 (UTC) |
|||
:You should restrict your edits to suggestions on the articles talk page, you have a conflict of interest as a paid editor. Wikipedia is not a means to promote UCTV, Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject have published about it in reliable places. [[User:Theroadislong|Theroadislong]] ([[User talk:Theroadislong#top|talk]]) 21:15, 6 February 2018 (UTC) |
|||
:{{tpw}} {{reply to|MikeyFromUCTV}} Just to add to what Theroadislong posted above, it's very important that you and everyone else at UCTV understand that [[:UCTV (University of Connecticut)]] does not belong to the station; in other words, it's not "your long neglected Wikipedia" page, but rather a Wikipedia article written about the company. Nobody at UCTV has any final editorial control over what content is added and what content is removed as explained in [[:Wikipedia:Ownership of content]]. |
|||
:So, what I suggest you do is to follow [[:Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide]] and [[:Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure]] and use [[:Talk:UCTV (University of Connecticut)]] to propose any major changes you'd like to make to the article. (Please note that by "major changes", I am referring to how the term is defined by Wikipedia in [[:Help:Minor edit#When to mark as minor changes]] and [[:Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#Making uncontroversial edits]].) You can use [[:Template:Request edit]] to proposes changes; after that you just wait until someone responds. Since there are only so many volunteers going around assessing these requests, you can help them out by clearly wording your request and keeping things as simple as possible as explained in [[:Wikipedia:Edit requests]]; in general, long wordy requests asking for multiple changes tend to take more time to reassess, but short "Change A to B in Section C using this website as a supporting source" types of requests tend to take less time to evaluate. If you post a request and nobody responds within in a reasonable time (say about a week), don't assume that means you have a green light to make the changes yourself; in such a case, ask for further help at [[:Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard]]. |
|||
:Even though COI/PAID editing is not something expressly forbidden, the [[:WP:COMMUNITY|Wikipedia community]] expects that such editors comply with certain policies and guidelines because unmonitored COI editing often quickly leads to other more serious problems.

::I get what's being said above and how I have a conflict of interest. But I wasn't trying to use the Wikipedia page to promote us I was simply trying to update it so it would be accurate. My view on this is that only someone from within the organization is going to know anything about updating it so if we don't who will? I feel removing the section about our various departments was totally unnecessary. It doesn't promote us in any way it just says what departments there are. The conflict of interest rules seem a little bit silly to me in this case because I actually know the facts to be updated and that's all I was trying to do.

:::: Please don't take this the wrong way, but even though your "view" may work fine on UCTV's own websites, it doesn't work well when it comes to Wikipedia. It's not really what you know which is relevant per [[:WP:VNT]], but only what can be found in [[:WP:RS|reliable sources]] (preferably [[:WP:SECONDARY|secondary sources]]) which matters here. A person doesn't need to have inside information on UCTV to edit the article; what matters more is that their edits are in accordance with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines. Moreover, Wikipedia is a collaborative editing project which means that disagreements over content inevitable and when they aoccur they are supposed to be resolved through discussion per [[:WP:DR]]. Not everything that is verifiable or factual about a subject needs to be added to an article per [[:WP:NOTEVERYTHING]], article content is determined through [[:WP:CON|consensus]]. Now, if you feel the guidelines regarding COI are too restrictive, then you can propose changes at [[:WT:COI]]. My sugestion to you still is that if you feel the article written about UCTV requires updating, then make edit requests on the article talk page in accordance with these guidelines. -- [[User:Marchjuly|Marchjuly]] ([[User talk:Marchjuly|talk]]) 08:12, 7 February 2018 (UTC) |

Hello Theroadislong, |
|||
you've deleted the filmografie of the page mentioned above and I don't understand why. You've said, that Wikipedia is not a directory, but it is common to list the filmografie of an actor, a director, producer and so on. So why has it been deleted? I would like to restore it.

Thank you for your quick reply. The filmography is important to show the show the subjects notability so I would like to add it again.

@[[User:Theroadislong|Theroadislong]] the production company won an won an International Emmy in New York for one of their films [[A Day for a Miracle]] - which is very very rare for a German production company. Winning an International Emmy, which along with the Oscars are the most recognizable entertainment award worldwide.

I appreciate the comments as I am relatively new to Wikipedia editing. However, there seems to be an aggression you are displaying. I am trying to add content that I truly believe a) I have a right to add and b) the Wikipedia community will enjoy and from which it will derive benefit. Please give me a chance to fix things before you pull everything down! Now my photos are gone? All of them from the gallery?

Hello Theroadislong, |
|||
you've declined my submission of the above mentioned article because the submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. The German TV series is in fact very notable like the series [[Der Kriminalist]], which is on Wikipedia and by the way doesn't have any sources at all. Also the Belgian original series [[Professor T.]] has an english Wikipedia article, so why shouldn't the German (which is very popular) have one? If I add some more sources, would you accept the article? |

Your comment about the photos is wrong. Photos showing people engaged in addiction therapy are highly relevant to an article about an addiction treatment center. Photos of nurses and teachers working with children affected by substance abuse are also highly relevant. There is nothing about those photos that could be reasonably considered "self-promoting" or "self-congratulatory." Please stop looking for ways to limit my efforts. I am following the rules.

Hi there, |
|||
First time editing wikipedia, so a bit new to this. I work for Vision Express UK ltd and noticed that there was a problem with our wikipedia page. It contains a 'Controversy' section which includes several items relating to SEO malpractice, which I believe are down to vandalism. |
|||
Firstly, there's reference to a situation in Sept 2010. This is way before any of us started, but it links to an article which claims there was an event of spammy practice. |
|||
Secondly, there is mention of Vision Express editing their own wikipedia page in an attempts to gain links from wikipedia and further keyword relevance. This is not something I've been aware of during my time working at Vision Express. Like I said this is the first time, I've ever edited a wikipedia article! |
|||
Thirdly, we have had television articles featuring both Trevor McDonald and Julie Walters respectively, but I'm not sure why these would be listed as controversial. |

== How to improve my draft - I'm new editor == |
||
Hello,<br> |
|||
I recently edited the article [[Answers in Genesis]]. You reverted [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Answers_in_Genesis&oldid=824994556 this edit], claiming it is wrong. Your revert changed "Critics state that Creation science, which is promoted by AiG, is a pseudoscience that "lacks the central defining characteristic of all modern scientific theories"." to the previous version, "Creation science, which is promoted by AiG, is a pseudoscience that "lacks the central defining characteristic of all modern scientific theories"." You claim this is "incorrect information" and "could be interperted as vandalism," while this is not what is shown at [[WP:Vandalism]]: "On Wikipedia, '''vandalism''' has a very specific meaning: editing (or other behavior) ''<u>deliberately</u> intended to obstruct or defeat the [[WP:5P|project's purpose]]''," (emphasis from source). This edit was not made with any negative intention. By no means or interpertation is this false. Critics certainly do state that this is a pseudoscience. All we are left with is which state of the article better meets [[WP:NPOV]]. I would say that my edit is a more neutral point of view. The sentence cites two sources. Both are books, so I cannot read either at short notice, but I am fairly certain that they are both written by critics of AiG (of course, that's a large portion of the scientific community at this point). Because of that, my statement is not wrong, and labeling it as such is. The original statement states this extremely factually - which, I would say, is biased towards critics.<br> |
|||
Please let me know why you think otherwise, and if I'm missing anything.<br> |

:It is a fact! Wikipedia has a bias towards science, creation science is pseudoscience and is not given equal weight, it is not just critics who state that creation science is pseudoscience it is the whole of modern science in general.

::I'm not saying they're wrong (and I'm afriad that's a subject we'll probably never come to terms on - this isn't the place for a creation/evolution debate), however you yourself say that "Wikipedia has a bias". ''That's exactly what we're trying to aviod!'' I say that evolution doesn't make sense. Evolutionists say that creation doesn't make sense. That's their opinion, and obviously one of those opinions is right - again, this isn't really the place to debate it. There are quite a few Christian scientiscts who would dispute that, although, again, that is a minority of scientiscts and, again, this isn't the place to debate it. The point I'm trying to make is that critics do state that, and it is factually correct (isn't that the basis of science?) <br> |

Could you possibly explain just what condition is the reason for issuing this warning of a conflict of interest? Just when is it a conflict of interest when I see a film, review the plot on WP, see errors and attempt to edit them? Should I consider this a sign of conspiracy thought among WP'ians just the same as there about accusations about being a sock puppet, or the inability to understand that I cannot sign into a registered user account name because I do not have one and have no intention of establishing one --and that WP needs to deal with how the technology reacts in a way that i have absolutely no control?[[Special:Contributions/2605:E000:9143:7000:4541:FEA4:B7BA:FDE9|2605:E000:9143:7000:4541:FEA4:B7BA:FDE9]] ([[User talk:2605:E000:9143:7000:4541:FEA4:B7BA:FDE9|talk]]) 15:34, 16 February 2018 (UTC) |

::Pardon my expression but I find that the most incredible stupid reason when everyone's IP is provided by the provider. I have absolutely no control about an IP or that system. Why out of the thousands of people connected with WP you decide that there is a conflict of interest is mind boggling! This I have to rank among all those that cast aspiration about my participating on WP and because my IP changes that somehow I am involved with some sort of conspiracy to deceive people when anyone reviewing my edits will see that they are limited to certain activities. And then i get the "suggestion" that i should establish a registered user name when all that I am doing is using the system endorsed by WP of using my IP address as my identifier. I find this conspiratorial attitude among those that are far more invested in WP than to be astounding and not in a positive way. That is what happens when a web site functions on a decentralized system. What next, there will be some other warning issued because sometimes my spelling goes in and out of British/American English? That somehow in that manner I am attempting to deceive people in some evil manner? And then by voicing my concerns I get labled as uncooperative and hostile and therefore undermining WP?

== Articles for creation: sandbox (February 18) == |
|||
Thank you for your prompt review of my draft entry for SPICMA, a charity. You have turned down my request for approval, citing my CoI and a lack of verification for encyclopaedic content. |
|||
I wish to challenge your review, on the following grounds: |
|||
1. My CoI has been declared. Moreover, I am a volunteer, as is everyone who works for/ assists this charity. Consequently, the only risk raised by my CoI is that the charity receives more donations than otherwise. I fail to see how this outcome constitutes a 'conflict' - of any kind. |
|||
2. Every statement of fact is verified by links to the website of the UK Government's Charity Commission, where SPICMA's financial returns and other details may be viewed in full. These returns and details are independently audited and continuously subject to review by the Charity Commission. There can be no more solid or independent verification. |
|||
3. The draft entry appears to conform to the precedents set by existing entries for charitable organisations, such as CAFOD (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CAFOD), OxFam (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxfam), and Save the Children (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Save_the_Children). |
|||
Please reconsider your review of SPICMA's entry in light of the above. |
|||
Thank you for your attention. |

Comment on my draft
[edit]Hey,
I recently saw your comment on my draft. I would like to say that I am aware that youtube is generally speaking not a reliable source, however i tried to avoid using youtube as a source except when discussing equipment, where as far as I know, footage can generally be considered a source.
Additionally, in my references using youtube(source 6, 7, 8 and 9(which 8 and 9 are the same source)), 6 is directly from the CGTN africa channel, 7 is from CCTV channel 7, and 8/9 is a reupload from the chinese MOD.
If i have to, i am willing to remove the equipment section as a whole if the sources are still not considered reliable. Best Regards, Thehistorianisaac Thehistorianisaac (talk) 10:15, 1 December 2024 (UTC)
Review of Maurice Molarsky page
[edit]I understand why you would reject this page, based on the information submitted thus far. We have not yet uploaded the main section about his career. Molarsky was one of the best known portrait painters in Philadelphia during the first half of the 20th century, and his work is currently held by the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the Woodmere Gallery, the Princeton University Art Museum, and numerous private collectors. His work regularly comes up for auction in the Northeast US:

Cranbourne West Secondary College Draft Decline
[edit]Hi @Theroadislong! Thank you for your review on Draft: Cranbourne West Secondary College.
Can I please get an idea of what part of the article sounds like its blatant advertising? I would like to improve the quality of the article prior to submitting again for review.
Your feedback is much appreciated! Thank you! DebugDruid (talk) 21:58, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- From the very first paragraph " growing steadily, adding a new year level annually. The school is committed to providing a diverse and inclusive learning environment for its students" is blatant promotion. Followed by "Rob Duncan, the current principal, brings extensive experience in educational leadership" then " has facilities designed to support both academic and extracurricular activities" etc etc. It reads like it was written by the schools marketing department. Theroadislong (talk) 22:02, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Theroadislong I have edited the draft as per your feedback. Could you please have a look now and let me know if anything else needs changing.
- Thank you in advance! DebugDruid (talk) 23:39, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Theroadislong, I saw your comment on the draft, it states the same thing as the reply from before, however the draft has been edited.
- Could you please let me know which part of the page still seems like its advertising, as all the information I have got is from the sources listed in the draft.
- Thank you. DebugDruid (talk) 22:44, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
X-tail
[edit]sorry for being annoying, (i can tell you got a lot to deal with). i'll try to find a reliable source to support the article, sorry it didn't meet specifications. Cheers! <3 Taffy boeing b 17 (talk) 22:04, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- No worries at all it seems like Draft:X-tail could make a great new article, you just need to find reliable sources that confirm your content, presumably you have them. Theroadislong (talk) 22:07, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
- You might find some of the references in the Tail-sitter article of some use. Theroadislong (talk) 22:14, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
7th marine brigade
[edit]Thank you for the comment on my draft on the 7th marine brigade.
Even though the nickname of the Jiaolong commandos is much more common, I have seen that it is also sometimes known as the 7th Marine Brigade, especially on some chinese websites, and the chinese wikipediia article along with red links on english wikipedia use the same name. I would prefer that the draft keep the name of the 7th marine brigade and have a redirect of Jiaolong commandos instead as it just simply is a more official name.

Maurice Molarsky article
[edit]Hi, Theroadislong--
I have edited the article about the American painter Maurice Molarsky (1885-1950), which you reviewed. I have provided citations from archival and web sources to demonstrate his stature as an award-winning portrait painter whose was displayed in many leading galleries and is now part of the permanent collections of several important museums.
Please let me know if you have any questions about the article.
Thank you.

- @Kingsmasher678 (talk page watcher) I truly do not think there is a problem with extending a welcome to any editor, even to a disruptive one, assuming your quoted editor to be one such. I have not checked. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 17:32, 5 December 2024 (UTC)
- I think it would be rather !AGF not to welcome a new editor, even if with the benefit of hindsight this turns out to have been naïve. (Granted, I don't bother myself welcoming very obvious vandals and spammers, but even then, perhaps I should.) -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 17:42, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Draft:La Casita Cultural Center
[edit]Hiii,
You rejected by draft most recently saying, "Four of the sources are their own website, we have little interest in what that says".
I have fixed that issue, now there is no website used twice as a source! I believe I have addressed your other concerns too :)
Let me know of any other necessary edits!

- However the draft was written, it's not suitable for Wikipedia, an Earwig check comes up with nothing but it looks like it's been copied and pasted. Theroadislong (talk) 17:43, 5 December 2024 (UTC)

Penn Medicine BioBank
[edit]Hi,
I'm trying to write a page about the Penn Medicine BioBank, similar to the UK BioBank's: UK Biobank. This page has generally the same sections plus more than mine, so I'm unsure of why mine is being rejected. Thank you! JLD120 (talk) 14:43, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
- You haven't submitted it for review? The previous draft was deleteted because it was a copyright violation, your latest version is blatant advertising, what is your connection? Theroadislong (talk) 14:46, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
- I just submitted a new one, I tried to add a sentence and change my wording so it doesn't look like advertising, I'm just trying to add it to the list of biobanks and make a page for it.
- I'm not connected to the subject- For one of my classes I get extra credit for contributing to Wikipedia about any topic in genetics, so I picked a biobank that hasn't been written about yet. I went off the formatting of the UK BioBank's page and sections. JLD120 (talk) 15:10, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
- The UK Biobank article has 90 sources, yours has two neither of which appear to be reliable or independent. Has your tutor read Wikipedia:School and university projects? Theroadislong (talk) 15:24, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
- I will search for more sources! Thank you JLD120 (talk) 15:30, 12 December 2024 (UTC)
