Speedy deletion nomination of DbNinja

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on DbNinja, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. V.vayer (talk) 20:53, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

Very amusing. It has been. I placed it there. You created the article. What is the point that you are attempting to make? Fiddle Faddle 21:04, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

AGF

Re this, I'm responding here so as not to clutter up the talk page discussion. Of course you're not required to assume good faith at all times no matter what the circumstances, but the important thing is that you make an effort, i.e. give the benefit of the doubt to your fellow editors. Re-reading my comment about consensus, and noting that I never engaged in any personal attacks or accusations of any kind, I don't think you can say you gave me the benefit of the doubt. Hence I think my reference to AGF was pretty on the mark.

That said I appreciate your change of heart and I hope we can continue to resolve this discussion (and future discussions) in a friendly manner. :-) --Dr. Fleischman (talk) 20:14, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

My opinion changed immediately you struck out what was, to me, the text that gave me cause for concern. That is as it should be. I have no issue with you at all. It was one behaviour and one alone that concerned me. That is now already in the past. Let's leave it there. The only thing ever to take personally on Wikipedia is praise. All else is clutter and a distraction. Fiddle Faddle 20:45, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

Glann ar Mor Distillery

Hey Tim. Thanks for your {{notability}} tag on the page I newly created, Glann ar Mor distillery! It now links to two pages (Héaux de Bréhat and List of whisky brands, the latter of which did not yet have a French whisky).
I know you are not an admin, but I'll ask your opinion anyway. I'm familiar with {{notability}}, but unsure of how it applies here. I think all existing whisky distilleries would merit a page on Wiki; there are a finite number of distilleries in Scotland and the rest of the world, so I think it is feasible that the majority of links on the list of whisky brands can exist at some point in the future.
There are additionally only seven whisky distilleries in France (see the French Wiki), of which I have translated one page (Glann ar Mor). I was planning on translating the other six, and updating list of whisky brands to include a French section. Let me know what you think, and if I could/should go ahead with this project.
Merci d'avance --(Moshe) מֹשֶׁה‎ 00:08, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Here is the thing. Some Whiskey distilleries are notable, others are not. If I had one in my back garden shed it would not be notable. Those which are notable are discussed in reliable sources, those which are not, are not. It doesn't matter whether the sources are paper, online, TV or radio, what matters is that they have discussed the distillery, not just mentioned it.

So you need to work at finding sources for each article that you create, and in reliable sources. The distillery's own web site is never going to be reliable.

That there are only seven distilleries in France may indicate that whiskey is unimportant to the French? If that is the case, that fact may be notable, but a distillery may not be.

My advice, for what it is worth, is to make this article bomb proof, and then go on to write the remainder. Categorise them as French whiskey distilleries by all means, and, if you feel the list also has merit, create that article also. Fiddle Faddle 00:19, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Kornog (Glann ar Mor) is on Dramming, Whisky Intelligence, and has been featured in Whisky Magazine. I'd say Glann ar Mor meets WP:RS, as far as whisky goes, so I'll remove the {{notability}} tag. I'll check other French whiskies' notability before translating.

Sorry, I meant only seven whisky distilleries in France only seven whisky distilleries in France with Wiki articles in French. There are a lot more than seven.

Whisky is actually very important to French people (http://www.economist.com/node/16412673 ). I'm not sure how many French distilleries themselves are notable, but again, I'll check before translating. Thanks! --(Moshe) מֹשֶׁה‎ 03:34, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

However, you need to look at the references in the article and add some. You are not using anything except the distillery's own web site. Fiddle Faddle 08:36, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

COI

Hi Tim, just realized who cleaned up the mess on Laura Figueroa, and would like to thank you for it. I did however asked user LauraFigueroa333 if she is willing to rather translate some Spanish language references about herself, since copying photos will just get her in trouble and we have a place for notable Wikipedians as far as I know? I think she didn't tried to breach COI she just wanted to add her exhibits neutrally. Correct me if I am wrong though, but all what the article needs is a list of exhibits, and Spanish language links, or translated ones.--Mishae (talk) 00:22, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

As long as she makes her requests on the article talk page there is no problem. Spanish language links are no problem either. She has already made one request on the talk page. I left her a message explaining what she must do on her own talk page, and she seems to understand. Notable WIkipedians, eh? I have no idea about that area!

Message from Laura Figueroa

Hello, I am Laura Figueroa. A sculptor from Mexico City. I made the mistake of adding and editing my own page that I did not create. I am new at this and did not think much about editing it. I am sending you some other places where you could check my authenticity, yes? I belong to ArAnimA an artist association in France The Society of Equestrian Artists in England The Centro Cultural Mizrahi in Mexico Art Gallery Archè Arte nel Tempo in Rome, Italy Art Gallery Pini Arte Modernacontemporanea in Pontevico, Italy and The International Equine Artists association in the US

How could I send you photos to add or more information? Or the list of my exhibits. Thank you very much, — Preceding unsigned comment added by LauraFigueroa333 (talk • contribs) 03:32, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Hey there. Please note that if you should post messages on the talk page, they must go on the bottom. Regards, Lord Sjones23 (talk - contributions) 03:56, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

@LauraFigueroa333: I'm not at all concerned about your proving who you are to me, Laura. WHat is important is that the article about you carries proof in reliable sources that you exist and that each fact in the article has a citation in a source to show that it is correct. What also matters is notability. I exist. I am a member of a number of excellent organisations, and I have created things, but no-one would ever imagine that I am notable.

Please do not send me pictures, those are the last thing that any article needs. An article on you also does not need pictures of your work. It will, in due course, need a pleasant portrait of you, or perhaps a picture of you at work, to illustrate it, but the basics need to be correct first.

I posted a message on your own talk page containing details of {{Request edit}}, something you can use to alert any editor at the article's talk page that you have a particular edit that you hope will go into the article. Please do use it.

I would also like to see you edit articles that are about other people and things before I place too much important on editing an article about you. I am not keen on people's use of Wikipedia being to promote themselves. I realise that you have been patient, but you may simply not be notable. Fiddle Faddle 08:41, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

I wouldn't say that she is not notable (though its probably my fault that I made her notable), more like not yet notable. Like, I don't know if she have any awards or not, but exhibits do make artists notable.--Mishae (talk) 15:00, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

I don't disagree, but I can find nothing about her anywhere so far. References in Spanish will be fine. Fiddle Faddle 15:49, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, but apparently she trusts us, and at the same time says that your comments were a bit insulting to her about her being not notable. Read my page for more info (so that it wont sound like I am spreading a rumour). As far as Spanish links goes, I don't know Spanish, however there is plenty of Spanish speaking users (considering it is USA second language), there still a chance of refusals for various reasons.--Mishae (talk) 23:56, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

dear user, the page is in the process of correction on my part, thanks or read this message and allow the page is not erased, I ask him to assist in the editing of the same.--Von Luxburg (talk) 13:00, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

@Von Luxburg: Your comments are required on the deletion discussion (linked from the article itself), my friend, where you will find the rationale for deletion and you will be able to make arguments for retention of the article. I appreciate your comment here, however this does not alter my current view on the article.

In addition to commenting there you need to find reliable sources to enter into the article. There is a finte time period to do this, so do it now.

English is not your first language, so this task is harder for you. However unfair it may seem, the English language Wikipedia can not make concessions to those who choose to edit in a language that is not their mother tongue. Fiddle Faddle 13:07, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

and tried to edit the page in question and every time I want something better in the article there is a user who constantly changes mind without explanation.--Von Luxburg (talk) 17:30, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

@Von Luxburg: It appears that you removed the notice that the article was being discussed for deletion, which is not appropriate. The reversion of that removal caused your other edits to be rolled out as well. Assuming those edits are valid and are cited in reliable sources you are welcome to add them again.

Request for Blocking IP Address 209.129.16.78

This address has a loooooooooooooooooooooong track record. I'm impressed that it still didn't get banned. I don't have permission to block this IP address, can you please do it? Also, I'm not entirely sure how to propose blocking; I'm merely a novice editor on Wikipedia. If I did it improperly (which I'm almost certain I did), then please leave a message on my talk page. Thanks! TheTriple M 18:16, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

pace Piotrus, you should watchlist user talk pages that you post on. Tim isn't an admin (last time I looked), neither am I, thus neither of us can block anything. Also, are you sure the IP isn't a school or a regularly reassigned dynamic IP address? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 22:56, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

@The Triple M: I am definitely not an admin, nor do I wish to be one, so I cannot block accounts or I addresses. To request that accounts (etc) are blocked, I use Twinkle which, if I remember correctly, is enabled in your user preferences. One can do it manually, but it is a pain. Other eyes then look at the request and determine if my request was reasonable. They accept or reject my request as they see fit. More times than not I get it right. You also have the ability to use Twinkle should you so wish. Fiddle Faddle 09:02, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

@Timtrent: Sorry for assuming. I just thought you were one, based on your productivity. And I've learned how to request blocks properly now, but thanks for your consideration. TheTriple M 17:23, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

"WHat is important is that the article about you carries proof in reliable sources that you exist". You understand why I would want you not to do so, right? --Demiurge1000 (talk) 01:05, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Spoon feed me. I cannot fathom your thinking yet. Fiddle Faddle 08:38, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Indeed it is not.

What also matters is notability. I exist. I am a member of a number of excellent organisations, and I have created things, but no-one would ever imagine that I am notable."

Bisexuality in the Arab world

Hi Fiddle, the article you requested copy-edit for today has only one reference. As it stands, it should really be reduced to a single sentence and stubified, per WP:OR. I've put the request on hold and I'm thinking of declining it but I want to ask whether you plan to work on the article further. If so, we can accept the request when you've finished expanding and referencing it. The GOCE's main mission isn't one of building content and referencing (although I sometimes do so if I can improve or balance an already well-referenced article). Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 23:05, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Fair answer. I can't find any references that I can search for or understand, so I suggest rejection. I don;t disagree with your analysis. Fiddle Faddle 23:09, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the quick reply; I'm probably incorrect thinking that it cannot be referenced; WP:OR doesn't demand references, it requires that text is verifiable. Have you tried the BBC? That's where I usually start with this kind of thing. I'm off to do RL stuff for a bit, back in a couple of hours. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 23:23, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
