Just curious

Saw your contributions on some of my AfDs & pages where I'm chasing after SEO spammers & stopped by your page. Very entertaining after a day at work. I'm just curious, and please feel free to tell me to feck off if you don't care to answer, but from the articles you mention I'm wondering if you're a fellow Marylander? I only know one other Wikipedian here.  :-) Keep fighting the good anti-spammer fight. JamesG5 (talk) 01:35, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

JamesG5 I am indeed, hon. Praxidicae (talk) 01:38, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Looking for second opinion on likely NN & COI article

I'm just reaching out to get another editor's opinion regarding an article that I believe is both promotional and on a non-notable subject and I have noticed you do a good job at recognizing promo/nn articles. I came across the Potterless podcast article after tagging an article on it's production company, Multitude Productions, for speedy deletion. I originally tagged it with notability, sourcing, and COI tags but SPA editors have removed them a couple times. I am likely going to nominate it for deletion but just want to make sure I'm not missing anything. Much thanks, GPL93 (talk) 17:40, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

I agree and it's probably worth filing an SPI on the half dozen SPAs there. I can't comment beyond that though. Praxidicae (talk) 17:49, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Draft: Kary Oberbrunner

I keep trying to add a picture for this person and I know it is added correctly, but it keeps getting deleted for no obvious reason. Last deletion was done by you. Can you clarify it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JohnKnoxvile (talk • contribs) 19:24, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

I did discuss it before removing a merge notice from Shilah Phillips

When you click the button to discuss it, it takes you to Talk: Miss Texas , so I left a comment there. I had also, back on January 18, posted my reasoning for not merging to Talk:Shilah Phillips. Since nobody else has made any comments for more than a month, I figured nobody else was interested. I found quite a few more sources since then also. HouseOfChange (talk) 20:18, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

While working to improve the article, I found many RS that consider it a BFD to be the first black Miss Texas, including not only the Houston Chronicle and Dallas News but also CBS News, Slate, and the NY Daily News. Not one person in more than a month has argued that Shilah Phillips should be merged into Miss Texas. If you still object to my removing the merge discussion tag, please tell me what else should be done before that tag should be removed. HouseOfChange (talk) 18:56, 22 February 2020 (UTC)

References

I didn't get paid to write it

Hi Praxidicae,I absolutely don't have any financial take in it, I'm a blogger so I might have got carried away using some flowery language. Will make amends and remove anything that proves otherwise, but I definitely did not get paid to do it, the subject is an African American making strides and impact. I edited the article several times just to make sure it will not sound promotional I'm also welcome to advice on improvements. Some of the references are from major national dailies Thank you.Ms Siga (talk) 21:20, 21 February 2020 (UTC)

Understanding Wiki Contribution Guidelines

Dear Praxidicae,

This regarding my recent edits / addition to the robotic vacuum cleaner article ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robotic_vacuum_cleaner ). I did my own research on this topic and added some details in sections. I also added a site link which I found during my research on robotic vacuums.

I found that you completely reverted the sections which I added. If you feel that a website link is the issue, then you can definitely remove the link and place the legitimate one. But I would like to understand why a well researched write up is completely removed from the wiki.

Can you let me know the reason of the deletion of the write up ? It will help me to refine my future research. Waiting for your reply.

About malta

Sorry, but I just added the word "official" to distinguish each secular and religious state

because the constitution of malta states that malta is a catholic state Kebajikan111 (talk) 13:49, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

There is absolutely no need to do this. Please stop. Praxidicae (talk) 13:49, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Sorry. ok .. I mean just distinguish which state is secular and no secular Kebajikan111 (talk) 13:51, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

@Beritagsier: Which of my edits indicates I have a conflict of interest? Thanks. Praxidicae (talk) 16:59, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

@Praxidicae:, please look at your article. It seems you have a COI. Beritagsier (talk) 17:04, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Beritagsier now you're just harassing me. Go take it to WP:COIN with your evidence and stay off my talk page. Praxidicae (talk) 17:04, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Question concerning the motivation of draft removal

Hi there, I would like to inquire about why the proposed new page on Living Systems Process Suite has been rejected as an ad while this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camunda seems to be pretty much the same type of page so i was wondering how we can contribute more info in a more objective way. I have read through https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_soapbox_or_means_of_promotion and I am failing to see the problem.

Kind regards Eko1437 (talk) 13:29, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) Hi @Eko1437: I would recommend you read WP:GNG to understand why this subject is not eligiable for a Wikipedia article at this time. You are correct that Camunda is likely also in violation of the WP:GNG - thank you for bringing this to our attention. -- a ^{they/them | argue | contribs} 13:46, 26 February 2020 (UTC)

Edit summary of the week

I think "spammy unsourced blah blah" [1] is one of the best edit summaries I've seen in a while for capturing what you were cleaning up out of an article. Thank you for bringing a smile to my face. —C.Fred (talk) 18:55, 27 February 2020 (UTC)

Hello Sir, I'm not a paid use i create those article which are internet celebrity. I can't take money from artists. Wikipedia creation is my passion not for money. Please remove this blame from me.

You work for Rudhra Technologies as per your userpage. You are an employee and writing about your employer, which is a digital marketing firm, so I find that hard to believe. Praxidicae (talk) 14:30, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

I was working in Rudhra Technologies. I written by mistake I am authentic person you can ask from rudhra technologies i am not working for any digital marketing firm as of now. I like Wikipedia that's why i'm creating.

You work for Rudhra Technologies whos clients are all people you've written about. Please don't insult our intelligence with this half ass attempt at covering it up. Praxidicae (talk) 14:44, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

Peter Stanton (Ecologist)

Hi, you have suggested my page "Peter Stanton (Ecologist)" appears to be intended only for promotional purposes. This is not the case, the subject is a significant figure in Australian environmental history and deserves a wikipedia entry. Many others who have recieved the IUCN Fred M. Packard award alone have qualified for a Wikipedia listing based thereupon and in addition thereto the Public Service Medal is considered to be a significant Australian government awarded honour. Does Quoting the citations that accompanied these awards or the scientific endeavours that led to their being awarded qualify as promotion? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mamieisblue (talk • contribs) 14:24, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

You have previously marked the gudban page as a copyio. I have worked on any possible copyvios and made improvements. If they still remain, I would wish for you to clarify which aspect of the page violates copyvio. Thanks and regards. Auxerre dejufan (talk) 12:01, 1 March 2020 (UTC)

Dental articles

Dear Praxidicae, I have gone through WP:MEDRS as per your recommendation. We represent an editing team from the University of Dundee who has been editing Dental Wikipedia pages for the past 4 years. All the articles posted have been written and reviewed by dental specialists/professors from the Dundee Dental Hospital and cited accordingly. The sources of our articles are also secondary sources from reliable journals, textbooks and dental guidelines. It would be great if you could let us know what exactly have we violated in terms of copyright or WP:MEDRS. Please kindly redirect us to the specific rules that we have violated so that we can make necessary changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by R.O.Ulceration (talk • contribs) 00:28, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) R.O.Ulceration, no comment on your editing, but your use of "we" is potentially problematic - Wikipedia accounts must represent a single person and may not be shared or otherwise represent a group. creffett (talk) 00:37, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Creffett, I can assure you that my Wikipedia account represents only me. However, Praxidicae has deleted multiple entries that have been entered by other users of the Wikipedia Collaboration of Dental Schools on the same page that I was working on.

Wow you work fast!

Hi Praxidicae I'm replying to your posts on my talk page regarding possible paid advocacy and deletion of a page I created. I'm just a huge MMA fan living in Asia, and for a huge MMA fan in Asia, ONE Championship is all I've got. That's why I'm trying to help their presence on Wikipedia since it was truly dismal. There's no need for me to write on the UFC, since they're well-taken care of already. I would appreciate if you could give me examples of the violating promotional language so I can remove it and learn what can or cannot be posted. I already read the guidelines, and thought I was within the lines already. Thanks! Evilmichaelscarn (talk) 15:25, 4 March 2020 (UTC)

David Murray (Australian Businessman)

Hello Praxidicae,

Thank you for reviewing my edit most promptly and advising me of this on my talk page

I do believe there has been a mistake made in this instance, possibly due to a number of changes made on David Murray's page. I'm still learning how to correctly edit pages and have run into some issues, hence the repeat edits.

The current paragraph is inflammatory and do not take a neutral stance as referred to in the Wikipedia's living person biography policy. I had also included his correct date of birth and education information, which has also been deleted. Could you please review the below suggested paragraph and advise how I can go about making these changes permanent? Is this an issue that I should raise on Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard?

Current paragraph:

Climate Change Denialism

Murray is an aggressive climate change denier and political saboteur to the benefit of Australia's mining sector, who has sought to derail public investment in renewables and moves towards carbon taxation. Against a backdrop of increasingly severe 2013 bush fires, he slandered an Australian group of scientists who he said lacked any "integrity" after they attributed the disasters to increased carbon emissions. This prompted the Australian Meteorological and Oceanographic Society to publicly declare they were "disturbed" by his statements.

Note here: The sentence; “Against a backdrop of increasingly severe 2013 bush fires, he slandered an Australian group of scientists who he said lacked any "integrity" after they attributed the disasters to increased carbon emissions.” Is completely incorrect. When looking at the Sydney Morning Herald Article – Climate Change: scientists attach David Murray for ‘serious slur’ – those referred to comments about the 2013 bushfires, were actually made by Tony Abbott, mentioned at the end of the article.

Suggested paragraph:

Climate Change Views

Murray has made public comments on attempts to mitigate climate change.

Murray has expressed views on Australia’s carbon tax legislation 2012, describing it as the worst piece of economic reform he has seen. Explaining, the legislation would raise costs within Australia and reduce Australia's competitiveness in energy exports. This has led to comments which have suggested he denies climate change.

Thanking you in advance.
