Jim Cummins (Photojournalist) bio submission and our chat exchange yesterday (1/29/14)
Hi Dragonfly6-7. This is Bob here. The chat line said to use this as the way to get a message to you. Was just logging in to get the status of posting the bio on Jim Cummins (Photojournalist) that you kindly offered to wrap up and get posted for me. Since the bio is not posted on Wikipedia yet (as of 1/30/14), I just want to make sure there is nothing else you need from me before it can get posted. I don't know how to see your reply other than to ask that you post your reply to the same place I got comments from the reviewers after I submitted the bio, at my account under username mjjjhjemjsrj . Am hoping that all is set and it's just a case of your inserting that citation on Jim Cummins award and then your hitting some kind of "post" button on your end. Thanks! Yesterday's help much appreciated! Bob — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.138.229.255 (talk) 21:56, 29 January 2014 (UTC)
Dragonfly6-7. You asked whether this submission should be under username: 'Mjjjhjemjsrj' or 'Robertpokress'. Please go ahead and place this under 'Robertpokress'. Thanks. Mjjjhjemjsrj (talk) 16:51, 30 January 2014 (UTC)Mjjjhjemjsrj

Page review question
Hi DragonflySixtyseven, I am trying to create a Wikipedia page for the Cosmology Large Angular Scale Surveyor. I got a message that you had reviewed it, but I don't see what the review was (positive or negative) and it has not moved into the article space as far as I can tell. This is the first Wikipedia page that I've tried to create, so could you fill me in on how this works when you get a chance? Thanks so much! --tom.essinger.hileman (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 19:05, 30 January 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for February 2
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Greater (flamingo), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Geographic (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Your Review of my Account
Dear Mr. Dragonflysixtyseven,
I would like to ask you about the review of my account. If you are accusing me of being a sock puppet, you can search and I can guarantee you I am not. If you believe I am a threat to Wikipedia, I have done minimal activity and could in no possible way be a threat. If you have another reason to think I have done something wrong please inform me of this Thank You. Mistaspock (talk) 16:41, 2 February 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Julie Winnefred Bertrand may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

Hey, I saw you reviewed my vector.css and commons.js and am just asking how you found those pages? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Titusfox (talk • contribs) 15:53, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
DS,
Don't just give a guy heart attack by reviewing 17 at once. 17 is not a good figure for a red box. TitusFox 16:14, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
Redirection
The page you reviewed, User:Busukxuan/common.css was empty, I forgot what I did wrong back then but in the end I inserted my custom CSS into User:Busukxuan/vector.css instead, so this is the page that should actually be reviewed. Busukxuan (talk) 17:12, 7 February 2014 (UTC)
Deletion User:Prenote page
Dear DeagonflySixtyseven (new section), I recently noticed that you deleted my account page User:Prenote. May I now why? Please note that I'm new to Wikipedia Foundation and that I would like to participate to the community lifestyle. Thank you in advance for your internest and time.
prenote info • ports & freights
- (talk page stalker) Your user page was set up like a corporate website, with external links to company pages. That's considered unduly promotional. In fact I believe your username is also a violation of Wikipedia's username policy because it's the name of a company and implies shared use. Wikipedia accounts are for individuals, not for corporations. You should take a look at bot the username policy and our guideline on conflicts of interest, and you should have your account renamed so that it only represents yourself, not your company. Writing an article about your company likely also is not a good idea due to the conflict of interest; it's not strictly prohibited, but it's very hard to maintain a neutral point of view when you're that closely associated with a topic, and you should make doubly sure that your content is neutral, not promotional, and based on reliable sources that are independent of the subject.

Celsia?
Hi, I see that you previously deleted a page called Celsia. I wanted to create a disambiguation page after finding what seemed to be confusion from that plant name at Celosia argentea. There are two unrelated plant genera by that name, as well as some species in other genera that previously had that name, as well as some non-plant entries in wikipedia. It's quite a muddle, and a disambig seems useful. Would there have been anything on that old page worth salvaging? Thanks. Sminthopsis84 (talk) 19:17, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

You reviewed my page, but it still says unreviewed
Hi there
I am very new here, but I got a message to say you reviewed my page. But it still has the unreviewed message at the top.
The pages is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Debate_South_Africa
Am I supposed to remove the "unreviewed template"? If so, I don't know how - can you help me? Or can you do it? Is there any reason why it still needs to say unreviewed?
Please help Thanks

Response regarding my page
Thanks so much for the really fast reply.
So does that mean it is not possible to remove the section at the top which says "This page is a new unreviewed article" ?
Is there anything I can or should do to get someone to review it, or will this just happen at some stage when the backlog is cleared?
Again - Thanks very much!!

Hello. I will recreate a page for this company, which, I believe, thanks to its "technological" status, is comparable to many companies already included in Wikipedia. I will also add relevant links. Regards, Skartsis (talk) 15:36, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for your answer. I admit that it is a short article (it may be expanded at some point), but I am confident that articles about such companies - including links - should be present in Wikipedia, so that relevant categories are as complete as possible (thus helping researchers). Regards, Skartsis (talk) 15:55, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
Peter Brant ll
Hello.Dragonfly ,In the case of Peter Brant ll we do not know if he is really gay or it is something he said to divert attention away from the story of he and his mother (which they riffed on later). Subsequently he gave an interview where he said he was bi and it seems that he is dating gots. I guess the lgbt category applies however he was very young when he said that and in the end he might turn out to be Herero we have no documented boyfriend for him though he hangs out and is photographed a lot with someone named Nick Hissom. He is friends with a lot of other out cekebreties and notables like Lorenzo Martone , Derek Blassberg and Nick Gruber, I think the jury is still out on this one but he said it Masterknighted (talk) 16:38, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
Why did you review an article in my sandbox?
Hi. I've just received an auto message saying that you've reviewed one of the articles which I'm working on in my sandbox. It's non-controversial and doesn't contain unfree images etc. Anyone is of course free to just look at people's userspaces, but please could you kindly explain why an admin needs to review it before it goes into mainspace? Like all sandbox articles, it will go through major necessary changes before being fit for mainspace - so how can it be appropriate to review it at this stage? Checking userspaces for possible violations makes sense; formally reviewing articles under userspace preparation doesn't. Is this a common practice I don't know about? Or have I accidentally included some kind of trigger for formal reviews which I need to disable? All the best. --Storye book (talk) 09:54, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
- I patrolled your page. I went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that your page was okay: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which I would delete someone's page without asking. Then I clicked "patrolled" to remove it from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all. DS (talk) 12:46, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, thank you very much for kindly letting me know - apologies for the misunderstanding. The problem, then, was with the auto alert system which logged a review, which to a non-admin like me looks like an article-standards review, because it features a green tick like the ones used on the DYK nominations page. By the way, I've already qualified as an auto-patroller on Wikimedia Commons, and that saves admin time and saves me unnecessary hassle. Is there a similar system on en.WP? Meanwhile keep up the good work! --Storye book (talk) 13:07, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
"Malicious content"; seriously?
In your recent patrol, you reviewed the common.css file that I - like all other Wikipedia users - have attached to my account, and that I edited as is acceptable in accordance with Wikipedia guidelines; the file in question affects no accounts but my own, has the ability to do little more than change the appearance of my own username on pages I view while logged into my own account for easier browsing, and contains code that is only capable of a limited changing of font appearance and color. You posted a warning that said code might be malicious and could compromise my account. I have to ask, what exactly makes you think this? We're talking something that not only does the code quite obviously not do, but that is quite literally impossible to do in a whopping 123 characters. --IcarusPhoenix--The Labyrinth 01:33, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
- Ah, my apologies; the warning was not generated immediately, and thus wasn't where I actually edited the page a month ago; therefore, it was the only change I noticed between then and the message of your review, and I jumped to an unreasonable conclusion. --IcarusPhoenix--The Labyrinth 01:43, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
Greetings DragonflySixtyseven. I was notified that you reviewed a couple of wiki-'books' I created and wonder what that might mean? I don't suppose you flew the Dragonfly in '67? Perhaps I should write an article on that fine old warbird. Cheers! BBeagle

Hello DragonflySixtyseven, thanks for reviewing me. I'm new-ish here, and while I often correct little things on articles, I've been wanting to work on more stuff.
While I was in my first year of law school, I drafted a lot of briefs I think would be very helpful to submit at some point.
In my current degree, (I am taking time off to do a second bachelors / work), I've been starting to do articles about people in the entertainment industry.
Since you're an admin, I was hoping maybe you could help me with leveling up and in return I could help you with edits, research or drafts for things you have an interest in! I saw you made some recommendations for pop culture.

Hi, I received the following message from User:ORNLPirhana
Hi Jim, You originally deleted this page due to copyright. However, after informing you all that it was US gov't content and therefore not copyright infringment, you reinstated it. I was told it would be up as a "stale" page for six months. I don't know what that means but that's what they said. Now it's been deleted again for marketing. I can understand flagging it for marketing but deleting it? I'm only trying to show a client a skeleton page and then I'm going to change the content. I understand that the're can't be exceptions but I've done this in the past and never had a problem. Why was I told it would be up for six months and will it be deleted again or flagged? I'm about to lose a client over this. Please advise
Because of the user name, the promotional nature of the text, complete with url links, and the comments above, which suggest paid editing or similar financial misuse, I have blocked this user. If I had not seen you userfying it, I would have deleted the ORNL Computational Data page again. I don't wheel, I wanted to make you aware of my concerns. For the avoidance of doubt, I don't mind if you unblock the user to allow a user name change, unconditionally unblock, or leave as is. Similarly with the relevant sandbox, you can leave as is or delete. You don't need to discuss this unless you particularly want to Jimfbleak - talk to me? 19:05, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
- I think(!, it might have been another user and another page...) that I was someone involved in the article, I fist tagged it as copyvio. Later Huon reverted me saying that US goverment is under PD. I entered the #wikipedia-en-help connect and overheard that Huon told the user would be able to edit the article up to 6 months before it would become stale.

Your review of my page
I have had notification that you reviewed my page, but I can find nothing on my user page or yours referring to this. Can you tell me what your review was about, please? Many thanks. --P123cat1 (talk) 12:59, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the explanation. I see many people have asked the same thing and that we have ALL missed the boxed message at the top of your "Editing User talk" page directing us to the explanation! Could the box perhaps be outlined in red or colour-highlighted so that it is not missed? I only suggest this because I am sure you get fed up having to answer the same query again and again. I suspect those who miss the boxed message are newcomers to Wiki editing like me; it is quite daunting to find one's way through the maze of pages involved in Wiki editing at first and things are easy to miss! --P123cat1 (talk) 13:46, 5 March 2014 (UTC)
Freedom Scientific
Hello, I've noticed your deletion of the Freedom Scientific article. I'm a bit curious about how you came across it. Even though the deletion seemed a little out-of-process (or were you invoking CSD G11?), I don't really mind it that much, as I've shown by deleting the talk page for you. That company is a big fish in a remarkably tiny pond (the blindness community); I can't really comment about its work related to learning disabilities. Despite being blind myself, I've generally been reluctant to work with articles about blindness on Wikipedia because of the difficulty of finding independent reliable sources for them. The best sources I've been able to find about Freedom Scientific are things like these articles from AccessWorld, a magazine about blindness from the American Foundation for the Blind. I don't know about you, but I wouldn't base an entire article on sourcing like that. Plus, the article as it was was woefully out of date, and colour me lazy, but I never really felt like updating it. It was only on my watchlist because of some previous vandalism.

More articles to delete
Hi! I have seen you that deleted the articles Androoox created. There are still some more to remove. There was a consensus to merge one of them so I have copied info from it. Too bad that many banned users don't accept that they have nothing to do here anymore. They damage other contributors work too and leave much after them, like now there are many red links for those articles, including on dab pages. --IRISZOOM (talk) 13:18, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Need an Admin to Close a Group Photo Deletion Request
- Appreciate your decisiveness concerning the Jelly Roll Morton photo's trivial deletion-request. Similarly, I need an admin to clarify and possibly close yet another photo deletion request by User:Stefan2. Below is a link to another discussion concerning some proposed deletions of historic photos which had received written permission from their source, the San Francisco Public Library. The discussion is about 7 days old.
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Files_for_deletion/2014_March_1#Terrific_Street
- It seems that of the 3 photos which were recently tagged with Deletion Requests, the below photo has still not had its templates modified to any extent to reflect the result of that discussion.
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Terrific_Street_Facing_East_1913_San_Francisco_Pacific_Street_A1.jpg
- The other 2 photos of that single deletion request have had partial adjustments to their deletion templates and I have to wonder if they are still unresolved (see links below).

What does it mean that you reviewed me?
Hello. What does it mean that you reviewed me? KaosMuppet (talk) 22:12, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) DragonflySixtyseven probably patrolled your page. He went through the enormously-backlogged list of newly-created pages and confirmed that your page was okay: not spam, not an attack page, not a copyright violation, not any of the other reasons for which DragonflySixtyseven would delete someone's page without asking. Then DragonflySixtyseven clicked "patrolled" to remove it from the list of "pages that have not yet been patrolled", and moved on to the next entry. That's all.

Category deletion
Just a quick reminder about your recent deletion of several categories created by User:Androoox.
As pointed out at WP:BAN, because deletion of categories can strand articles as "uncategorized" or leave them sitting in redlinked categories (both of which are no-nos under our categorization rules), if you're deleting a category that was created by a banned user, then you have to manually depopulate the category before you delete it. Or, alternatively, if you don't want to take on that extra work then you can nominate it for deletion through the CFD process — but you can't just delete a category and then walk away while leaving all of its former content still filed in the redlink. That just creates another pile of maintenance work that other people have to clean up after the fact — there were almost twice as many articles on the uncategorized articles list the last time I did a tagging batch as there should normally have been, an overrun that was created almost entirely by your category deletions.
So in future, please remember that a banned user's category creations can't be deleted quite as arbitrarily as their article content can — rather, you need to take extra steps to ensure that you aren't leaving articles stranded in the deleted categories. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 22:34, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
- As important as "denying credit" is, WP:BAN is still quite explicit that if you're the one deleting the category then you're the one who needs to take responsibility for depopulating or recreating or upmerging it, or whatever other steps are necessary (such as taking it to CFD instead) to ensure that none of the articles get stranded in a redlinked category. The articles should never have landed on uncats in the first place, and if you're the one deleting a category then it's your job to keep them from landing there as part of the act of deleting it. Bearcat (talk) 23:14, 8 March 2014 (UTC)
Article deleted
Hello, You reviewed an article of mine recently and deleted it for being overly promotional. I wanted to know if the page could be made available to edit and resubmit. Nissinlaby (talk) 13:40, 11 March 2014 (UTC)
- Talk page stalker Hi Nissinlaby, I looked at the draft to see if I could restore it for you. Unfortunately, the whole thing is pretty much spam. It's more like a corporate "about us" than an encyclopedic article, which is also the reason I'm not restoring it. I looked through it, and there is nothing there that doesn't need to be completely re-written. Because there is nothing there you can use as a base for editing it, it will be of no use to you for a second attempt, and I'm not going to put you in a situation where you may be tempted to do so, which will definitely result in another decline. I considered salving the references you used, so you could re-use them in case you want to take another stab at writing it, but unfortunately, all sources are press releases, links to the organisation itself, or links to affiliated organisations. If you are affiliated with First Car Rental, or are paid to write for them, I'd like to ask you to review WP:COI. It is extremely difficult to write a neutral encyclopedic article about a subject you have a conflict of interest in, and we strongly advice against it. Cheers, Martijn Hoekstra (talk) 19:21, 11 March 2014 (UTC)

Dumb question
Hi DragonflySixtySeven! I saw that you reviewed a list I'm building in user space, I was wondering about that? Nothing is wrong, I'm just perennially curious and no one has ever reviewed my sandboxes before! I thought sandboxes were places to build articles before moving to mainspace. And yes I read your message but I am still confused. Please let me know? Thanks! Ellin Beltz (talk) 17:58, 19 March 2014 (UTC)

P.S. If Banana Island page was patrolled, should something else happen to it? It seems a little light on citations and long on POV. I'm not an expert on notability. Thanks! Ellin Beltz (talk) 04:06, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Startup Village - Yokneam
I saw that you reviewed the Startup Village - Yokneam page that was rejected. I made some changes after getting feedback. I am still looking for a citation for one of the items that I was told needs to be checked. I know where I was given the information, but still need to get a citation. Do you have any specific recommendations. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Unclefeet (talk • contribs) 14:54, 23 March 2014 (UTC)
A kitten for you!
I believe that I am not a sockpuppet, but I am not so sure. Who am I? What is this place that I am at? Where am I going? How will I get to where I need to be? When is this text complete? Anyway, thank you for your studiousness in my general direction and the others that I assume that you must be going at the same time, as I was made to feel special, today. It has been awhile, since I have been able to use the Internet, and I want to complete a single article on the Wikipedia to prove to myself that I exist and that I am not merely a drug-induced delusion experienced by an ex-girlfriend. This existentiality thing is making me hallucinate. I must be away. Thank you, again.

Review / Szathmary Article
Hi DragonflySixtyseven,
I received a message that you reviewed my profile. I noticed you did not leave any comments, but thought it might be good to follow up. I am a student librarian at the University of Iowa Main Library in the Special Collections department currently working on my first article on Louis Szathmary. I just updated the page with a copious amount of new information and given that it is my first article, I would appreciate it if you could review my work. I have tried my hardest to stick with Wikipedia protocol, but since I am new, I believe another set of eyes might be beneficial. Any help you or another seasoned Wikipedia editor could offer would be much appreciated!

Hobby Lobby Article Edits
Hello! I've been lurking on the Hobby Lobby talk page and I noticed your removal of the hypocrisy wording on the page and thought you might be a good person to contact about my question. I wanted to add a rebuttal to the Mother Jones piece inside the Hobby Lobby article, but wasn't sure how to go about it. I found another piece on Forbes which is a good counter point: http://www.forbes.com/sites/ryanellis/2014/04/02/hobby-lobby-owners-can-have-a-401k-and-first-amendment-rights/ It's as biased in the opposite direction as the Mother Jones piece, but it brings up good points about the nature of indexed funds and how the employees of the 401k program actually are the ones who decide where the money gets invested. Could it be offered up as a counterpoint? Something along the lines of, "However, an alternate piece put together by Ryan Ellis at Forbes, suggests that it is the employees of Hobby Lobby and the plan administrator that selected these particular funds and not Hobby Lobby itself." I have some experience in investing before, and even if I don't agree with Hobby Lobby's case the argument that the Mother Jones piece doesn't make sense. Anyhow, I'd love any suggestions you can give as I'm fairly new and don't want to step on any toes. (EasyStreetMusings)
Triples Table Tennis/Ping Pong
Hello, You have blocked me as a user as I have tried to recreate a page that has previously been blocked as being too promotional. Please could you advise as all I am trying to introduce is a new variation of the classic game of ping pong and include game rules, images, and footage where we have been filmed. Would be grateful for any advise you could give.Michelesw5 (talk) 15:19, 4 April 2014 (UTC)
Rejected Submission
Please explain the reasons why the article "SSHH" was rejected. It is an article explaining the healing process known as "SSHH" or "Synergistic Solutions for Health and Healing" which is similar to "MMS" or "Miracle Mineral Solution" but modified slightly by adding an organic chelating element. Wikipedia already has an article about "MMS" but does not have an article on "SSHH" and I think the public needs this additional information available on Wikipedia.
