Thank You

Hello Werldwayd,

I remember you being a helper with the article Alex Gilbert. I have been adding new sources and info for a while now and expanding it as you can see. It has grown dramatically with many new sources. I remember when it was having issues.. for a long time too. Your welcome to ahead and expand and write. Thank You --TheDomain (talk) 09:39, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

• Hello Werldwayd, Thank You for your help with updating the article. I see you are doing a lot. I think we shouldn't have much on his list of television work as mentioned in his story a lot of this is from his film school years. But not sure. Try not to change it as adoption advocate and production assistant. I think we should try keep it to just the adoption stuff but have a mention of his television. Not sure to have the list of his television work. Not sure. Also not many reliable sources on his television work too, just iMDB. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks! --TheDomain (talk) 11:24, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

• • I disagree actually. A Wikipedia page should not be just one selective aspect of somebody's life but a "comprehensive" presentation of what he is and what he does. My interest believe it or not was more in his adaptation process in New Zealand, his life and aspirations of becoming a successful television producer. I would be more fascinated of how he adapted to the new country. For example Where and what did he study. What did he do as a professional? How his brother is doing? I am sure as things go on, he will have to have a professional career and become an accomplished individual with various aspirations. Having said that, this is a cooperative project and anybody can pitch in. If you see his other career being highlighted counter-productive, you can revert anything I have done regarding his other careers. But wouldn't that turn him into this one-dimensional character with no other aspirations in life but to go on and on about being adopted? On a side note, when this article was being nominated for deletion I don't know how many times, I was arguing that Gilbert was not a "one cause" individual but was a diverse multi-talented professional. That was my argument for keeping the article and saving it from deletion. Believe it or not, a diversified level of notable activities reinforces an individual article of being maintained in Wikipedia. werldwayd (talk) 11:36, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
• I agree with you werldwayd :) Perfect answer. I didn't know that as I understand it's all part of his career so that makes perfect sense! Thank You! --TheDomain (talk) 11:39, 4 January 2018 (UTC)
• Hello werldwayd. Alex's new book I'm Adopted is due to be released soon. Some people have already read it. He is giving free digital copies out. I have been able to find one here as it's now released on the iBooks store in Japan. See [1] [2] I am thinking of writing a section about the story, or should we wait until it's released (apparently on the 19th) See [3] ? Problem is, it's self published. But alot of notes about his life are there in the story. I expanded some info on the documentary. Thanks werldwayd! --TheDomain (talk) 05:15, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
• By the way, how do I know people are already reading. He wrote about it on his Twitter. This file I have here. I took it from the iBook. Maybe you might need to remove, but expanding could be possible or a section about the book. Not sure. What you did to expand the article was great. Thanks in advance! werldwayd --TheDomain (talk) 05:21, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Let's wait for the 19th or 20th to add it. Probably we might need a little bit more until we have a critique of the book from an independent source. No hurry. We are here for the long term. To know the number of readers of the page, open page Alex Gilbert, Press history on top menu, and then press "Page view statistics". You get this https://tools.wmflabs.org/pageviews/?project=en.wikipedia.org&platform=all-access&agent=user&range=latest-20&pages=Alex_Gilbert So average readership is like 20-25 people, with a specila day on January 4 where for some reason 280 people checked the page. werldwayd (talk) 17:26, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Ok werldwayd. That sounds like a good idea. Your right about any sources as this is self published from what I see on Amazon and iBooks. Otherwise keeping it on the list is fine. And just a simple 'Alex released his second book I'm Adopted on the 19th of January etc.. If we can't find anything. Easy as that. For the long term I understand and of course! Thank You! --TheDomain (talk) 19:08, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

• Hi werldwayd. The book is now released. See [4] and [5]. I brought an iBooks version in respect to the author. I follow his work and advocacy. Do you suggest that we add some small areas here on the article? Like general personal life information or early life information? Should we wait for an independent source as you suggested? I have read the book and there is some background information about his New Zealand parents that we could add, but would like to know your thoughts. Thanks! --TheDomain (talk) 09:48, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

There are two issues here. The book will need some independent review before creating a paragraph about the book. But the second issue that you raise, sure, the book would be a good source about adding some facts about his family etc. Mention the book and the page you took it from as a reference. werldwayd (talk) 16:12, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

• werldwayd we are now allowed to do that are we unless it's back up by sources? I have just noted that he has released a new book. We can leave it at that for the time being. Thanks! --TheDomain (talk) 17:05, 19 January 2018 (UTC)

If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

Speedy deletion nomination of Religions for Peace

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Religions for Peace requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://rfp.org/learn/vision-mission/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The Dualers

My dear friend, I hope you're fine. I'm having difficulty with one persistent editor who repeatedly tries to turn The Dualers page into a gushy, unreferenced fan site full of trivia, anecdote and puffery. Perhaps you could add it to your watchlist and help me to keep it well referenced, neutral and accurate. Thanks very much, and best wishes, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 02:54, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

Sure. I see persistent effort by related-party editors to reintroduce unverified materials over and over again without references. I will surely keep an eye on this. werldwayd (talk) 14:41, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

Khalid Yasin

Hello dear friend, I hope you are fine. I’d be very grateful if you would please take a look at the Khalid Yasin page. An unregistered editor has turned a pretty decent article into a subjective, non-encyclopaedic and unreferenced fan page. Thanks and regards, George Custer's Sabre (talk) 02:58, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

Now the article is back to its original referenced text after so many reverts by an individual who obviously has a "related party". But I will continue to watch the page. werldwayd (talk) 05:56, 8 February 2018 (UTC)
