Thank you, truly, for your edits on [[Sarah Haoda Todd]]. Through trying to de-orphan a different article, I have become interested in business women from PNG (about whom I have previously known absolutely nothing), and pulled the article together in a fairly short time -- I had not expected it to become so long. Clearly, some of my attempts to paraphrase came out as promotional, and I would have hated for poor writing to have jeopardized coverage of this impressive and notable individual. I'm grateful!

:{{bcc|Oughtta Be Otters}}Certainly wasn't bad writing, indeed most of what would be considered great writing in a magazine can come off as just slightly promotional when compared to Wikipedia's dry style – '''[[User:Þjarkur|Thjarkur]]''' [[User talk:Þjarkur|(talk)]] 18:39, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

RE: Singh Tyagi surname

Hello

1. My ancestor from 9 generations earlier from Mughal times was Chaudhary Maha Singh. The whole village is predominantly his decendents. 2. My Grandfather from Sambhal District UP did not write Tyagi as his last name, he wrote Singh. 3. My other Grandfather from Karnal Haryana did not write Tyagi either. Some of his brother's used Sharma, served in WWII. 4. My Father, an Officer in the Indian Army started writing last name Tyagi. His cousins had names like Ram Singh, Phool Singh.

Do you mean to say that all these people are not Tyagis? How, please explain? Regards.

M Tyagi — Preceding unsigned comment added by Watcher2009 (talk • contribs) 20:57, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

The article is not currently about a clan, but about a particular surname. (See also WP:OR) – Thjarkur (talk) 21:26, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Why you have added mali word in saini article?mali is different caste in punjab according to Punjab land Alliation Act — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.225.46.101 (talk) 06:21, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Saini is different caste in punjab

The census of 1881 as shown on page 292 and 232 of the book linked below 'The Cyclopaedia of India and of Eastern and Southern Asia, Commercial, Industrial and Scientific by Edward Balfour, Jan 1885' ascertains that Sainis and Malis have always been documented as entirely separate tribes in census. Same with page 232.


https://play.google.com/books/reader?id=yvNWAAAAMAAJ&hl=en&pg=GBS.PA294


Why is it being ignored, please understand this is a sensitive topic for Saini community and we are being mistaken for other group which lives in different part of India Remove mali word with saini articles you can say that rajput mali started only in 1937 using saini surname how you can say all saini are malies only rajput mali using saini surname not all mali in other different states . — Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.234.186.169 (talk) 13:23, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Hi Þjarkur, thanks for your observation amd notes on the article you've tagged as 'Advert'. The goal is to respect Wikipedia guidelines, on that regard just cleaned up and added other sources to be fully NPOV compliant. Can you please check? Thanks!

Draft:Fred Ngajiro

Greetings,

I have seen you also reviewed the article Draft:Fred Ngajiro. Thank you very much , though after going through it and add more reliable sources i believe you can let me know if by now is in good condition for review. Hope your keeping safeNdizibanana (talk) 14:03, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

​Almost all of the sources appear to be sponsored content. – Thjarkur (talk) 14:10, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Thanks for your respond though i have also shared this to the help and they say not all of them are sponsored or advert content . Have you been able to go through the sources and read them?? Kindly re-check again. Thanks Ndizibanana (talk) 14:39, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

We been also discusing that byline here in Tanzania is not applicable for most sources which are reliable sources. And most of these sources are from reliable source / gorverment newspapers and all which are also used to many wikipedia articles. Kindly look again one by one article some they have byline and some are not but it doesnt mean they are paid sources. Ndizibanana (talk) 14:43, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Example this article ..how would you rate it ? https://www.thecitizen.co.tz/magazine/success/-How--Fred-Vunjabei--built-a-Sh4bn-business-empire-at-33/1843788-5637920-ec6oj5/index.html Ndizibanana (talk) 15:41, 29 December 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Smartworks

Hi Pjarkur, Please provide me the the deleted material for future reference or improvement. I would like to contest and understand which statement was unambiguous advertising and would like to improve the Aiticle. I do minor edits and would love to hear learn from you.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pratyush Chowdhary (talk • contribs) 16:43, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

​The article has already been deleted and so I don't have access to it, but it is sometimes possible to ask an admin to email the contents to you at WP:REFUND. If I recall correctly there were paragraphs such as "Had a dream to create a great company" and "offers business solutions" or something of the sort. The company has also previously paid editors for creating an article about them. – Thjarkur (talk) 16:54, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Pjarkur, Thank you. I have requested for recovery, could you see if it is in the right order. - Pratyush Chowdhary (talk • contribs) 16:43, 5 January 2021 (UTC) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion#Smartworks

In connection with article for Pixel Game Maker MV which you flagged as advertisement, you did not specify what sections are problematic. The article mentions criticism of the product, therefore it is objective. It would help if you could clarify. Rrobotto (talk) 17:41, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Howard Dresner page

Hello. I am completely new at this so I don't know if I am doing it correctly. I am in the process of revamping my page on Howard Dresner and I appreciate your comments. One mentioned that there could be a conflict. I don't see a conflict, so I hope that won't be a factor in getting the page approved or not flagged once I have figured out what I'm doing. Thank you. DiFreeze1 (talk) 19:08, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello DiFreeze1, if there isn't a conflict of interest then there's no problem. The only thing that would be necessary for a new article not to be tagged would be that the article neutrally summarized what independent sources said about the subject, and that sources containing significant coverage of the subject were cited. The subject does have many passing mentions, but I wasn't immediately able to find significant independent coverage of him – that can indicate that the subject isn't notable enough for an article here. – Thjarkur (talk) 22:10, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

About a Video of the Illuminati Building.

Hi, Þjarkur, just a message to explain about the video of the Illuminati. The treatment is purely historical. I'm not interested on conspirative theories but in the historical phenomena of the Illuminati. The content lets to view inside the patio where the original building of the Illuminati was. I visited the place in March, before the lockdown, and as far as I know there's no other video that shows this historical part of the building, where the jewish synagogue that was burnt on the kristallnacht was too. I deeply think it can be useful to those that investigates this historical period.

p.s. I'm sorry if I don't use the wiki codes well: I'm a beginner on Wiki comments and discussions and working with the codes it's a bit complicated for me.

Thank you, and Happy New Year. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luismagerit (talk • contribs) 19:29, 30 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello Luismagerit, sorry for the late response. I personally found your video interesting, but Wikipedia tries to limit the types of content it links to in External Links. – Thjarkur (talk) 17:01, 5 January 2021 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) It's not a lolling matter, TheFirstVicar4: we can't host copyright violations anywhere on this site - not in articles, but also not in draft or user space. You're free to work on an article about that subject, but if you want to copy sources while you work on your content, do it offline and only upload here when you're finished. Cheers GirthSummit (blether) 18:22, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Sir, somone is messing with my page is creating the same edit over and over. It is an ip account and I belive it is vandalization. In fact, if you look at the version history you can see he deleted the speedy deletion template. You are free to put it back in although you have not responded to my recent contest. Thanks UpcomingPurse (talk) 22:44, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

​Certainly a strange thing to edit war over. I would recommend ignoring the matter for now, the IP has already called attention to itself in various locations. – Thjarkur (talk) 22:59, 12 January 2021 (UTC)

Ayazona tagged for speedy deletion

Thank you for your efforts in patrolling new pages. I wanted to let you know that I have applied a speedy deletion tag to the article Ayazona, which you proposed for deletion, because I believe it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion. In cases where it applies, speedy deletion is preferable to proposed deletion; in the future, please tag blatantly inappropriate pages for speedy deletion first if they meet the criteria. I have left the {{prod}} tag in place, so that if speedy deletion is rejected, your proposed deletion will remain in place. Thanks! JJP...MASTER![talk to] JJP... master? 13:44, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Skyr

Dear Þjarkur,

I see you reverted my minor edit on the skyr page. Do you think it's factually inaccurate? Or is it irrelevant? Or the problem is that I didn't provide a source? If the missing source is the problem, would these articles constitute a good source: The Guardian and 10Best? Both of them mention the Icelandic tourism boom as a major driving force behind the skyr's popularity. Please let me know. Johnnyjanko (talk) 08:25, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi, the reversion was only due to the lack of a source, it seemed a bit too speculative. The Icelandic sources I can find say it's due to marketing efforts from around 2005. The Guardian says the popularity is due to various marketing efforts, but that tourism has "helped to spread the word". Will add some of it to the article now. – Thjarkur (talk) 11:08, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

2lane and Teleblast Music Group

Hi there! Do you reckon it's worth putting these through AfD? It doesn't look like they'll get speedied, probably because there is an assertion of notability even though it's not supported at all by any references. Spiderone 09:48, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

​I feel it's almost not worth it, if SPI weren't so backlogged I'd have opened a case there to get these G5'd. – Thjarkur (talk) 12:12, 14 January 2021 (UTC)
It's a real pain. I'm not sure the A7 will go through as the editor has claimed that it has charted in Germany and Italy, which is technically a claim to notability. A fraudulent one but a claim nonetheless. Spiderone 15:01, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

Anantbodh Chaitanya

What is reason for deleting the article.

Good Morning. I do not understand why you put this article for deleting.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Deimantas007 (talk • contribs) 05:32, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Regarding Deleting page about Anantbodh Chaitanya

Hello Þjarkur. Article about Anantbodh Chaitanya on wikipedia for many years. I just tried to put some information what I got from Internet. I do not understand if this article was not according to wikipedia policy so why wikipedia did not delete it many years ago. This person belongs to strong tradition. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yogialakh (talk • contribs) 06:14, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello Deimantas007 and Yogialakh, since Wikipedia article's don't really undergo "review" as such, there are many old articles here that may not meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. Regarding Anantbodh, I wasn't able to find sources showing that he'd received significant independent coverage. You are welcome to respond at the discussion page Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Anantbodh Chaitanya, the matter being discussed is whether the subject has received significant independent coverage. You may however first want to have a look at Wikipedia's guidelines for editors with a conflict of interest if you are co-workers / co-founders or otherwise close to the subject. – Thjarkur (talk) 11:26, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Deletion of page about Anantbodh Chaitanya

Hi,

You have mentioned that Anantbodh does not have significant independent coverage. He is a very renowned spiritual leader and has followers in Lithuania, Malta, Thailand, Indonesia and India.

https://www.patrika.com/aligarh-news/european-public-has-accepted-the-sanatan-dharma-anant-bodh-1321176/

There are much information that can be added to his page. May I request you to put the hold at abeyance for sometime and allow me to give adequate references?

Hello, Swami Sharad Puri is a renowned saint based in Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India. He has many followers across the globe. People are looking for him on the internet. I don't understand the reason why Wikipedia has considered the page of Swami Sharad Puri for deletion. Kindly reconsider.Puneet180291 (talk) 08:08, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

See answer above – Thjarkur (talk) 00:23, 14 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello Sir, Kindly reconsider it once more time before deleting. Anant bodh Chaitanya is a well-known person. He belongs to very strong tradition of Hindu monk. You should not deleted this article. At least you need to consult who knows about Hindu religion and who knows about Shankar vedanta tradition.- Regards Ashirwad — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.204.169.205 (talk) 10:11, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

saigrace pokharel

Hi, My page Saigrace Pokharel and Shashwot Khadka was recently deleted. Would you please be able to advise me on what should be done in future to avoid those? Also, would I be able to get my deleted page draft for editing Saigrace Pokharel please? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Venusorion (talk • contribs) 02:03, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Hello Venusorion, your old page is (at the time of writing) available in Google's temporary cache. Try to focus on just summarizing what reliable secondary sources have said (not FamousBirthdays.com, Lyrics.com, SocialBlade, Facebook), and focus on facts rather than praise. Instead of "His storytelling is compelling" you'd write "Z is an author. His book X won the Y award in 2015". See WP:PUFFERY and WP:NEUTRAL. – Thjarkur (talk) 15:14, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Reason - Content Removed from the Dental Implant page

I'm removing or updating only 404 error pages on wikipedia. At the same time if I am getting the right page I'm updating the 404 error page with the correct working page. Please guide me if I'm doing anything wrong in updating the links. Can you please check my contribution and let me know if you have any inputs. Thank You — Preceding unsigned comment added by Praveenkrify (talk • contribs) 12:12, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Praveenkrify, in one instance that I reverted you the archive URL contained a functioning PDF but the new URL didn't. Archive links to the Internet Archive are usually fine and don't need to be replaced. It's usually preferable to tag dead sources with {{dead url}} rather than to remove them – removing sources makes verification more difficult and can make it seem that the content is coming from other sources in the paragraph. – Thjarkur (talk) 15:03, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

Hahnsberg

You wish to delete the article on the Hahnsberg family. If you delete the entry because they are a very minor noble family, you will need to delete many others -- the v. Weber article because they are only mentioned in the Siebmacher armorial in 1845. The Hahnsbergs are mentioned in the 17th century Siebmacher.

I assumed the entry would be of historical interest.

There are more sources from the Tyrol I could include. It seems to me that relying entirely on on-line sources as criteria will leave a lot of entries on the lesser nobility liable to deletion.

Thank you,

Filo

Post Script

There are on-line sources. I can change the title of the article to Han v. Hanberg, if you wish.

The Han v. Hanberg, Hahsperg, Hahnsberg etc. was a noble family in the Tyrol.

The Siebmacher armorial is available on-line, too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Filokalos1974 (talk • contribs) 18:54, 22 January 2021 (UTC)

​Hi, I could see that there was an armorial with this title, but I couldn't find any coverage about the family itself that would verify the content in the article (there are claims about the year 1803 but the most recent source there is from 1801). Have you found any offline sources that directly discuss the family rather than just list its armorial? While sources don't have to be accessible online for Wikipedia to use them, it seemed to suggest non-notability that no sources in Google Books (that I could find) mentioned the family. We do indeed have some old articles on non-notable (even some made-up) families that should be deleted, but filtering through them to find which are notable is relatively time-consuming. – Thjarkur (talk) 13:49, 23 January 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for helping out with this problematic editor @Isaacbabatundeo, I have reported them accordingly for disruptive editing as well as covert UPE, I happened to nab this non notable possible covert UPE article on Adebukola Foluke Osunyikanmi who fails PROF & of which he claims the image in the article as his “own work”, tale signs of blatant UPE.

Thank you

Thank you, truly, for your edits on Sarah Haoda Todd. Through trying to de-orphan a different article, I have become interested in business women from PNG (about whom I have previously known absolutely nothing), and pulled the article together in a fairly short time -- I had not expected it to become so long. Clearly, some of my attempts to paraphrase came out as promotional, and I would have hated for poor writing to have jeopardized coverage of this impressive and notable individual. I'm grateful!

​Certainly wasn't bad writing, indeed most of what would be considered great writing in a magazine can come off as just slightly promotional when compared to Wikipedia's dry style – Thjarkur (talk) 18:39, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
