So are wikis are good or not on the draft? Starkiryu64 (talk) 23:27, 25 June 2021 (UTC)

Starkiryu64, if you mean using fandom as a source, nope. it is classified as a self-published source. The same reason why we can't use Wikipedia itself as a source. – robertsky (talk) 05:40, 26 June 2021 (UTC)

Could TV Tropes be okay? Starkiryu64 (talk) 22:24, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

Starkiryu64, no. It is listed as generally unreliable at WP:RSP. – robertsky (talk) 04:47, 18 July 2021 (UTC)

Draft Abdullah Sulaiman Al Rajhi

birth cert

Re your comment on WP:UAA, "recommend user to reach out to OTRS with birth cert?"

1. What would it prove? Having researched my family tree, I could prove that I am any one of my ancestors born from 1840 onwards.
2. WP:VRT does not have any means of safely holding, or disposing of, this personal information once it's received.

If you haven't read or seen The Day of the Jackal (book, film), it's a good yarn. The storyline will shake your assumption that a birth certificate proves identity. - Cabayi (talk) 09:51, 12 July 2021 (UTC)

Cabayi, i have nothing to respond to this... (￣▽￣*)ゞ except that i may have a vague recollection of the story. – robertsky (talk) 14:36, 13 July 2021 (UTC)

Just a reminder, not a threat.

Just a reminder, not a threat.

Be aware of this rule, which was told to me. Charliestalnaker (talk) 05:31, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Your recent editing history at River Valley High School, Singapore shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

@Charliestalnaker: I am more than aware about 3rr. This is more applicable to you than me. – robertsky (talk) 05:37, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I believe this established a threat to robertsky. --Justanothersgwikieditor (talk) 05:53, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

Just wanted to say great work on the article, Robertsky. I enjoyed reading it a lot. We really do need more pages on Singapore's history. Seloloving (talk) 16:59, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

Seloloving, Thank you! And thanks for the barnstar too. – robertsky (talk) 17:43, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Original Barnstar
	Great work on Newspaper and Printing Presses Act Robertsky. One of the most fascinating articles on Singapore's history I have seen in a while. It's great to see what is typically relegated to the history books brought to life in a Wikipedia article as easily accessible knowledge. Seloloving (talk) 17:12, 22 July 2021 (UTC)

A pie for you!

Thank you for helping with the query for the AfC backlog drive leaderboard, and for helping to keep it updated! Enterprisey (talk!) 07:56, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

Would taking pictures of his Diplomas constitute reliable sources?

Kieron Taylor (talk) 12:10, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

Kieron Taylor, that only will establish the fact of him having the diploma(s) but not his notability. instead find third party sources such as newspaper articles, journal entries, etc to back his notability. – robertsky (talk) 12:53, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

Submission of Draft:Hum Kahan Ke Sachay Thay

The serial has been premired and has notable actors like Mahira Khan, Kubra Khan, Usman Mukhtar. The firat episode of the serial has been released and it received good reviews. Not only the reliable and big newspaper of the country such as Dawn News, The News International wrote about it but Daily Times Pakistan and GalaxyLollywood reviewed it also. So, I thonk the article is notable enough to be published. Phaans (talk) 05:22, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Phaans, oh apologies. I missed the part on the premiere date when I was scanning through the article. Can you include a Critical reception section with the reviews you stated above? That should seal the notability aspect of the article. – robertsky (talk) 05:25, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

I have added the added the section of criticla reception with those references of critics take on serial's episodes. Please, rereview it as now it is ready for publishing. Phaans (talk) 05:54, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

Draft:Unione Giovani Ebrei d'Italia

Hi I saw you declined my request for an excessively promotional language. Is there any paragraph in particular I should change? Could you clarify your suggestion?Gibbone22 (talk) 02:48, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Gibbone22, I will respond directly on the page itself. I suggest not removing the previous submission templates and comments as it would have seem to be a first pass review which most reviewers would not have left comments at all, or little details on how to improve the articles. – robertsky (talk) 02:51, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Thank you, I'll make sure the previous submissions won't be cancelled. Looking forward for other suggestionsGibbone22 (talk) 03:23, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Hi, thank you very much for your suggestions. I've modified the draft accordingly, and replied to each point. Is there anything else I could do? I'm a bit confused by the suggestion regarding the paragraph "History". UGEI has done many activities, listing all of them would be an endless work. As an overview those info should be fine, no? Gibbone22 (talk) 16:10, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Gibbone22, just the key activities. sounds like you are connected to the organisation. here's a tip, write only those are reported in news and other secondary sources. if you are writing an overview, back them with references. – robertsky (talk) 16:27, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Robertsky Hi, so I added more references and more information in general. Do you think the draft is ready to be submitted or should I change something else? And also, if I submit it again, will you be able to review it again? - Gibbone22 (talk) 17:36, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Request on 09:51:40, 10 August 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Tim Isaksson

• Tim Isaksson (talk · contribs)
  • Draft:Noise: A Flaw in Human Judgment (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi Robertsky,

Thanks for your speedy review of my re-submitted draft, I appreciate it a lot. However, being new to Wikipedia I'm not quite sure how to proceed based on the feedback you provided. Regarding the reason given for the decline ("This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article."), I feel that the draft now lives up to summarizing the book (previously the concept, now the book), that it doesn't contain opinions or original research and that the point of view is neutral point, with the text merely describing what the authors argue and what commentators have said about the book. The one thing I suppose could be lacking is reliable secondary sources about the book, but that should hardly be necessary since the draft is now about the book itself and summarizes what is written in the book (i.e. the book itself is the secondary source)?

I would very much appreciate if you could give me some more specific pointers on how to meet the standards.

You also left the comment "Literature review", which leaves me a little bit perplexed. How/what do you mean?

Again, thanks a lot! Tim Isaksson (talk) 09:51, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Tim Isaksson (talk) 09:51, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

Tim Isaksson, What I meant was that it read like an literature review of the book and of other sources combined. If it is an entry about the book itself, then a short description of the book + critical review/reception of the book through other notable book reviews/awards or recognition is sufficient. You have expanded on explaining the concepts and details in the books. Like the previous reviewer comment, split these two out, the book and the concepts. – robertsky (talk) 12:45, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
