Breckinridge Family in the American Civil War
Hello, Onel. I noted your new tag on this article, created by me, and recently approved and posted up.
I have no objection to your post, but I'm just a little puzzled as to why six different sources is considered too few for such a short article. There are much longer articles which quote only one source, or even none. Is there any reference-point in the Wiki guidelines as to how many sources one should aim at? Valetude (talk) 17:16, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Valetude - first, when you leave a comment asking about an article, please leave a link to that article. Second, regarding your question, the # of citations is irrelevant, but that everything in the article be cited. There are quite a few things in that article which have no citations. This also helps protect your hard work, since uncited material may be removed at any time. Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 11:27, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
Sometimes The World Ain't Enough
Hi, I saw you reverted Sometimes The World Ain't Enough back to a redirect. I read the revision history and the reason you gave was that it was 'per afd' as in Articles For Deletion, I suppose. Could you explain the reason? Is it not notable enough? Thanks! BornGabe (talk) 01:48, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi BornGabe - as per AfD means as per Articles for Deletion. In other words a discussion was had amongst editors and it was decided that the subject was not notable enough for an article. In addition, looking at the sources you provided, there is only 1 in-depth article about the album from an independent reliable source (the Blabbermouth review), so would not pass another discussion. Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 11:34, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of Indian Ports Association
Hi Onel5969. Thanks for your time and efforts in reviewing this article. However, I observe that speedy deletion tag had been placed on this articele. As its a statutory organisation under Government of India, its written for informational use of wider public. Request you to kindly guide if its not following Wikipedia policy but if it meets requirements kindly remove the tag so that it can be used for wider public. Thanking you. Gardenkur (talk) 12:21, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Gardenkur - Even if the article was about something of unquestionable notability, say, The New York Times, if all the article did was simply promote the newspaper, then it would be subject to deletion. You have to write the article about the subject, not promoting it. Get rid of any "objectives", and then I would re-write the "initiatives" section into prose, rather than list, and simply make sure the citations back up the statements. I started the process of transitioning the second portion to give you an idea. Onel5969 TT me 20:42, 1 February 2022 (UTC)
Dear Onel5969. I thank you for your suggestions and see that I follow your suggestions in future in all my articles. With vast experience you have I respect your guidance. Thanks a lot again for this favour and will get back to you soon after recommended changes. Gardenkur (talk) 02:27, 2 February 2022 (UTC) Dear Onel5969. I made improvements in article as suggested by you and resubmiited. Kindly have a look and let me know for any changes. Thanking you. Gardenkur (talk) 05:23, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
Kearis Jackson
I have gone back in and I have tried to fix my Kearis Jackson article by adding better references and removing the ESPN references etc. Please respond asap so I can fix the article based on how much more you think I should do. I want to work to come to a satisfying conclusion. Thanks! BullDawg2021 (talk)
- Hi BullDawg2021 - First, you do not need anyone's permission to remove a prod tag. Since you are disputing the prod here, I've gone ahead and removed it on your behalf. Second, the only coverage about this player is what I deem as WP:ROUTINE. And as such, he does not qualify as per WP:GNG. In addition, there is nothing in the article to indicate he satisfies any of the conditions of WP:COLLATH. I prodded it due to the fact that it was tagged for improvement for a month, without anything being done to attempt to fix the article. Unless better, in-depth sourcing is added to the article, it will probably end up at AfD. Third, there is nothing wrong with the ESPN references, other than their lack of depth of coverage. It wasn't your sources, but the lack of in-depth coverage about the subject. Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 11:42, 2 February 2022 (UTC)
ANI notice
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is Repeated recreation of Lovejoy (band) despite consensus. Thank you. wizzito | say hello! 01:48, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello, you reverted my edit with adding an article and changing Ed Bolian back to a redirect. I was aware of the previous AFD, but at this point, I thought he passed Wikipedia:ONEEVENT due to the popularity of his YouTube channel, and the RS's that have wrote about it. Can you please explain how "nothing new since it occoured" is true in the case of the overwhelming popularity of his channel? Cheers! Sea Cow (talk) 12:06, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sure. The AfD occurred in 2016, and nothing new has happened since then. The popularity of a channel might indicate notability for the channel, not necessarily for the man. In addition, other than the BIO1E, your version was mostly sourced by primary sources or unreliable sources (e.g. twitter, instagram, youtube, linked in). Hope this explains it better. Onel5969 TT me 12:11, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- I'm going to bring this back to my sandbox, and try and put in more RS's in order to fulfill notability guidelines better. Cheers! Sea Cow (talk) 13:02, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
Smerinthus astarte reversion
Hi, Onel5969. Why did it get reverted? Is it because I made it in a redirect page? Or is it because you don’t think it was valid? If it’s the former, then it’s because I was worried when I made it myself it was gonna make and error or link the redirect instead. If the latter, I’m sure it is valid. I am sure the Sphingidae Taxonomic Inventory is a trusted source, and there was even a study. If there is anyway I can resubmit this, please answer and thank you in advance. Mcatto (talk) 14:24, 3 February 2022 (UTC) Monarchatto Mcatto (talk) 14:24, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- As was said in the edit summary, it was because it was a copyright violation (COPYVIO). WP takes copyright infringement very seriously, so please refrain from doing so, as it could get you blocked. See WP:COPYVIO. Onel5969 TT me 15:05, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Hajoon0102. I noticed that you recently removed content from Samsung Galaxy A13 without adequately explaining why.

If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. --Hajoon0102 💬 14:58, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- Wrong. I explained completely why, there are not enough in-depth sources from independent sites to show it passes WP:GNG. Sorry if that is too difficult for you to comprehend. Onel5969 TT me 15:06, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
User:onel5969 Good day, thank you for your suggestion and feedback. Duly noted. There have been by myself and with other Wikipedia users/editors a total of 7 reliable and independent sourced citations submitted to the Brandon Lorenzo article. Please provide feedback as you've moved this article to drafts. Thank you kindly. WikiHuman2021 WikiHuman2021 (talk) 17:45, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
- I've removed all the uncited material to give you an idea of what it was lacking, virtually gutting the article, which is something I didn't want to do, which is why I moved it into draftspace for you to work on. Onel5969 TT me 19:24, 3 February 2022 (UTC)
I appreciate your diligence, but I would like to understand why there is (maybe not only from you but possibly other editors) constant effort to continuously revert the changes on creating this page, especially due to this journal being a critical part of American history, specifically the oldest and longest running journal covering intellectual property (and founded in 1918). Do you suggest creating it in that alternate test space first? I just want to understand what you and these other editors take issue with is all before proceeding, and would like to get your blessing to create this page.
- There would be no issue with you creating it in draft space and working on it there. However, while there is not a question of notability regarding the journal, there is the question, why? Why does WP need a single line article about a journal, which is already covered in another very short article about the organization? Onel5969 TT me 11:58, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
User:onel5969 Why was this article moved to draft? All listed sources are top media houses in India. What more sources are expected? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JaisonAbeySabu (talk • contribs) 11:15, 4 February 2022 (UTC)
- It was explained in the edit summary, you appear to have some connection with the article's subject, so you should take a look at WP:UPE and WP:COI to see how you can comply with WP guidelines. Onel5969 TT me 11:59, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello Onel5969, I hope you doing great ? I see you review articles I created on the wikipedia platform. Just want to say thank you for your remark, I do appreciate and hoping to create more good articles in the future.--Gabriel601 (talk) 04:53, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello again!
Could you assess this article and give me some feedback whenever you have the time? I thought it would be a better idea for me to focalize a bit when creating articles so as to learn the ins and outs a bit more efficiently. This week, I'm considering creating articles for a number of notable musicians slated to perform at this year's Coachella.
Loraine James is notable, that's for sure, and I like to think I did a pretty good job with the article. But I'm certain there's room for improvement and I have a few lingering questions.
- What do you think of the "External Links" section, particularly for entertainer biographies? Should it be placed before or after the "References" section?
- The placement of sections in an article is best gone over at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Layout, but to answer your specific question, after.
- Would you have sectioned the article differently?
- This is very subjective. Personally, I wouldn't have the Biography header, would have just broken the article into 3 sections. But the way you did it is fine.
- Should I write more about the albums? I try to but it usually ends up sounding a bit subjective, or the tone just isn't very "encyclopedic". Still, I feel as if there is room for expansion.
- Again, subjective, but most editors would agree that single sentence paragraphs are problematic. I would condense them into a single paragraph, or two short ones (one for the 2010s and one for the 2020s). For the 1st album and the 2 EPs, I would expand, especially since they don't have their own articles. The 2nd album, which has its own article is fine.
- How should I proceed with categories? I feel like I often miss the important/pertinent ones while adding a few that are somewhat broad. For example, should I add the "Electronic music articles" category to Jame's article, a biography?
- Categories are not my strong suit, I tend to hit the major ones, and let editors who scour WP about categories flesh them out. But if you know of a cat, than by all means add it.
- Anything else I can improve?
- Looks good to me as it is, other than the single sentence structure. One thing though, you mention she has an aka, whenever you do that, and bold it in the lead, create a redirect. In this case I did it for you.
Thanks again for your time! If you'd rather I ping you on my own talk page next time, please let me know. Mooonswimmer 17:16, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 20:26, 5 February 2022 (UTC)
Arunmozhi
Thank you | |
The page 'Arunmozhi' was created by me as a music fan. Since Wikipedia remains an important source of information, I wanted to document the contributions of Arunmozhi to music in Wikipedia. There is absolutely no conflict of interest. As a new editor of Wikipedia, I couldnt connect this page with one page, which is already there in his name in Tamil language, which is very brief and short of information. Most of his songs are internally sources which were earlier found in his both names. Through this page, I organized them well and properly sourced.! I have also collected few more reliable sources, that I will add. Thank you so much.! Thirukannan (talk) 05:19, 6 February 2022 (UTC) |
- Hi. Sorry, but there is a clear indication that you have some relationship with the article's subject. Onel5969 TT me 20:00, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
Hi I accepted it as it was written as a fan of the subject. I regret for showing this value in editing, which is clearly in conflict with the neutrality policy. Except that there is no other conflict of interest. I am trying to learn the important basic policies of Wikipedia that govern the editors roles and behaviour. Thank you for indicating this. I have cited few more sources and revised it from a neutral point of view.Thirukannan (talk) 12:40, 22 February 2022 (UTC)
Manbang Yi
You moved the article on Korean composer Manbang Yi to "drafts". Please note that: 1) it is much longer and has much more information than articles marked as "stubs" which nevertheless have been approved to function on en.wikipedia; 2) I have done extensive research to complete the sections on Yi's compositions, written works and performances of his works and included all this in the entry 3) due to a language barrier it is practically impossible for me to quote other sources 4) there is very very little on Yi in English, so the need to create an entry on him is even bigger. The only thing I can do (cf. 3) is actually shorten the biography so that it can be approved as a stub. I would be grateful if you tell me which information to ommit and how much is enough for it to be accepted as a stub. thank you Ivonna Nowicka (talk) 18:04, 6 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. It has nothing to do with lack of notability or sourcing, neither of which I looked at. It all comes down to the fact that there are clear indications you have some connection to the article's subject. Would you care to explain what that connection is?

Non-notable awards
A user Lillyput4455 is adding the nominations and awards of IPPA awards in articles such as Aisi Hai Tanhai and Sammi (TV series) without any reference, they are not notable awards and also there is no nay article linked to that awards, thus not satisfy the wiki criteria for awards.

NFL Scoring Leaders - One Source
Hello,
I saw that you added a tag to the page List of National Football League annual scoring leaders. Creating articles is new for me, so I wanted to ask someone, are two sources normally considered good enough when it comes to references for stats?
Original source: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/scoring_year_by_year.htm
Additional source: https://www.footballdb.com/leaders/yearly-scoring-points
Any feedback is appreciated, as I'm still learning. Hey man im josh (talk) 14:00, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Hey man im josh - the number doesn't matter, but the quality does. But usually at least 2 quality sources are enough. You want to show that you are not synthesizing the stats, but are simply reporting them. And list articles are better if instead of simply providing the list, which many editors do, you also provide context. For instance, your list would be great if you explained why you have 3 tables (e.g. prior to the merger of the AFL and NFL...). But again, if you do, provide a source for what you right, so that it's not original research. Also, as a hint, when you leave a message, there are 3 real important things: first, be civil, which you were; second, sign your comment, which you did; and third, leave a link to the page you want to discuss, which you also did. So nice job. Keep up the good work, and don't be afraid to ask questions. Onel5969 TT me 18:38, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
Ksenija Knežević's wiki page
Hi! can you tell me why you always move Ksenija's page to te Hurricane's. Her page have all that needs to be there? Slovena4ther (talk) 15:02, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. First, I'm not always moving the page. I did it once. And that was because there is simply not enough in-depth coverage about her, outside the band, to show that she meets notability by herself. Onel5969 TT me 18:39, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
But she is definitely deserves her own page and she is notability a lot. Also think that this is not the reason to move her page to Hurricane's.

Pioneer Brewing Co - moved to draft
I have absolutely no idea why you made the Pioneer Brewing article a "draft" - maybe some sort of play on words given that they produce mainly packaged beers?
What would you have me do?
- List the awards they have received over the past few years? Boring I reckon.
- List the types of beers they produce - given that they seem to ring the changes in styles fairly regularly the article would soon be out of date.
When I created the article some time ago, I deliberately left it bare bones because there is not a lot of third party references around at the moment it being a family-run rural based start up and being in Australia is not PR conscious (or full of BS) like a lot of US businesses.
I don't know why some editors do this sort of thing to articles created in good faith. It's no wonder that the numbers of active editors is dropping away. Most people don't have the energy to deal with this sort of crap.
If you want an article to pick on look closer to home - the article on Flying Bison Brewing Company has lots of issues.
Silent Billy (talk) 02:35, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- Because it doesn't have nearly enough in-depth sources to show it passes WP:GNG or WP:NCORP. Since I think it could be notable, I moved it to draft so you could work on it. And btw, then going to AfD and casting a !vote in retaliation is a pretty juvenile response. Onel5969 TT me 11:22, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- It wasn't retaliation. It's a flippin' locality at best. A short para in the local county article would be sufficient. Silent Billy (talk) 01:37, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry, when you haven't participated in AfD for years, then suddenly show up at a discussion right after you post on my talk page, whining about your article, which is just below the AfD discussion notice. Very few would not see the transparency of your above lie. Stay off my talk page. You are not worth anyone's time. Onel5969 TT me 02:43, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

CAST-15 notability tag
I think I see your point about the question of notability of CAST-15. I will try to address the concerns as far as I can infer them. I will need some time (weeks) though as I have to manage other duties.
Well, technically, you, personally, gave no suggestion or explanation for the tag, but the following seems to state things sufficiently.
Please help to demonstrate the notability of the topic by citing reliable secondary sources that are independent of the topic and provide significant coverage of it beyond a mere trivial mention.
Most of the citations at the time were references within the RTCA publication sphere. RTCA is not FAA, while the CASTs are FAA publications. So, the citations were in that sense, secondary to a degree; they were non-FAA documents referencing FAA documents that were crucially important in the development of the non-FAA documents. Particularly, the CASTs were effectively the reasons those documents came to be.
These CASTs are at once historic and useful; yes, on one hand they were technically obsoleted by the new releases of other documents, but on the other hand they have significant information in them that was not included in the new document, but is very helpful in understanding them, and secondary sources about the new documents also refer to the CASTs. I have found in them citations for words of advice that FAA-appointed auditors have given me over the decades.
The 2004 FAA Job Aid refers to a number of CASTs, directing reviewers to them for additional information and guidance. I am trying to find the current system of FAA Software Reviews as I presume there has been some shake up.
I was able to add some citations that are neither FAA orders or RTCA publications. Hopefully, these help.
IveGoneAway (talk) 16:20, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. No, RTCA are primary sources. And I understand your contention that they help to understanding the newer regs. Perhaps you could add this information into a historical section on the article about the newer regs? Onel5969 TT me 20:38, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- Never the less, I think I provided secondary sources (Rierson and Mathworks are authoritative). These direct workers to a number of CASTs, not just -15; Mathworks in particular seeing it necessary to cite CAST-15, not DO-178C, to explain the distinctions between HLR/LLR. A frustration of Rev C is how little clarity was improved; EASA are presently banging us up against CAST-15 (through the CM) in a language development.
- As a whole, the CASTs would be mentioned in the history, whereas the CASTs need to be sited in specific sections of DO-178C, et al, to explain some concepts particularly novel to the guidance.
- The FAA Job Aid directs the users to the CASTs where they know the DOs are incomplete or unclear. I am not saying all CAST are notable. CAST-15 may seem an orphan now, but there would be a few articles on FAA Orders that would reference it when I get to it. The CASTs record a historic effort and so appear in the established technical literature where they are cited rather than the standards.

You moved an article I created about Elio Villafranca
You said that it "appears" that the page was created by a paid editor or someone with COI? I am neither getting paid, nor do I have any COI. How does it appear this way? As far as the "independence" of the sources are concerned, can you please tell me which source is an issue? Most of the sources I used are sources that I saw being used in other approved pages. Please, if you are going to mark a page someone has worked on as a draft, do not do so with out explaining a bit more. I would like to follow guidelines. I think I did. If I did not do so, please elaborate how.

What kind of indications? --Arimaniacle (talk) 20:51, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
Look, the info is all sourced. I do not have a COI with the subject. People of less noteworthiness have pages written on them. You are not being descript in the feedback. If you do not give me any real feedback, I can make a RfC. --Arimaniacle (talk) 21:31, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry, I don't give hints to folks to show them how to circumvent being COI/UPE. And your reaction tends to say that you're probably UPE, rather than simply COI. And "make a RFC"? About what? Simply submit your article for review through the AfC process. And follow the instructions on WP:COI or WP:UPE about how to deal with your conflict. Onel5969 TT me 21:35, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
I'm paid?? If someone contributes only one article, are they automatically assumed COI or UPE? Even if the subject is Grammy nominated, all of their contemporaries have articles, and they consistently perform in the city I am in? If that is the case, it would be impossible for anyone to become a regular contributor. I am absolutely not UPE... I am an underemployed piano teacher with passion for music who took time out of my life to make what I thought was my first article. In fact I was somewhat proud of it...
You don't want to give me hints? If any reference to an issue is a hint, and you can't give hints, how can anyone be made aware of issues? As far as the RfC, I was understanding the term literally. If it is just you I need to listen to, and you don't want to give "hints" I thought a "request for comment" may be a good way to get a comment from someone. That said, is there an issue with making an RFC? Is it not as innocuous as it sounds? I really am trying to abide by the guidelines. What else am I supposed to do? --Arimaniacle (talk) 21:55, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
- RfCs are a way to attract more attention to a discussion about making changes to pages or procedures. You could certainly start one, but what would it be about? They usually have a very specific purpose, like "Should we change the SNG about Olympic athletes from the current one which says that anyone who participated in the Olympics should be considered notable, to limit it to only those who have won medals?". (That's a recent one). But feel free. Onel5969 TT me 22:08, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
I won't make the RFC if it will be of no use. I was thinking to use it in context of it's use for pages. That is how I thought of incorporating it to this situation. The idea was to Request for Comment if anyone else thinks I am UPE or COI. To me, the fact that you said I'm likely UPE tells me that you really are a wrong in your assumptions. I have resubmitted the draft for review. Are you saying that there is nothing else for me to do? - Thanks--Arimaniacle (talk) 22:18, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
Nadja Petrovic
Hello. I was notified of the lack of independent sources for the article Nadja Petrovic, but I have referenced three sources outside her own website. is this not considered enough? I know that two of them are in Macedonian, but that's where the information is. is there a rule that they most be in English? Regards. B. Jankuloski (talk) 00:26, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi B. Jankuloski. Of the 3, 2 are primary, since they are related to the artist (because they are the places putting on her shows). That leaves only the single remaining one. I could not find anything additional in-depth about her. You'd need at least 2 more to show she passes GNG. Hope this helps.
- I have added the required sources which I hope will satisfy GNG. Could you please have a look again and, if all is well, advise me if it's okay?

Hi there, I saw that you tagged the CKFF-FM Wikipedia article with notability. I found a newsletter from June 2020 saying that the radio station signed on the air in April 2020. There's also a link to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) of when the new radio station in Kipawa, Quebec, Canada was approved in 2018 to operate at 104.1 FM. Hope this helps! 45.78.101.125 (talk) 02:13, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- What you need is 3 or more in-depth pieces from sources which are independent and reliable. Newsletters would not be reliable. And simple listings are not in-depth. Onel5969 TT me 02:41, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Dudes (David Mead album)
Hello, Onel5969. Wikipedia says that you reviewed the page "Dudes (David Mead album)," but now it looks like it's vanished from Wikipedia. Did you delete it? If so, could you please explain why?
- As was said in the edit summary, it did not meet WP:NALBUM. Onel5969 TT me 11:21, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
David Edward Williams
My only intention is to enhance Wikipedia. I do this by adding content and citations to articles that display a warning. I also edit articles to bring them up-to-date, for example, Olympic results. This gives me real buzz! As I go through this process I come across interesting and notable people and organisations who do not have a Wikipedia page. I then do extensive research and publish an article following Wikipedia strict guidelines. I do not know David Williams (I wish I did as he appears to be an extraordinary character!) nor am I paid. Therefore there is no WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict. The article has 18 reliable secondary and independent sources. Please move the page back to mainspace so that readers can view the accomplishments of a notable person who I think is a genius.FuBiuC (talk) 21:51, 10 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry, but there are clear indications that you have some type of relationship with the article's subject. Onel5969 TT me 11:25, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
David Edward Williams is one of several gay married people I am researching for a series of blogs and publications on notable members of the LGBTQ community. That's my only relationship with him.FuBiuC (talk) 22:17, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
Rinkball vs Rink bandy
The Rink bandy article was recently separated into two separate articles: one for Rink bandy and the other for Rinkball. They are separate organized sports. Several other pages have since been relinked to the new article page for rinkball. Is there any way to revert the last edit? So that the two pages remain separate? CheckersBoard (talk) 10:26, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
Rinkball is not rink bandy
Incorrect, rinkball is not rink bandy. They have separate rules and separate governing bodies and equipment. Please help revert back to where they were separated. The International Rinkball Federation is a separate body from the Federation of International Bandy. They are not the same sporting bodies. CheckersBoard (talk) 10:52, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. I reverted back to the target article due to the fact that their is not a single reference from an independent reliable source which states that they are different sports. In addition, there were large swaths of the article which were unreferenced. Since you've returned the article to mainspace, I've removed all the unsourced material. It still does not pass WP:GNG, however, since it still does not have a single in-depth reference from an independent reliable source. Onel5969 TT me 20:18, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
It's probably a thing that warrants at least a few words outside the 'blood in stools' article. You're right that it needs decent citing, so that's been added now. Chumpih t 20:46, 11 February 2022 (UTC)
Of course you're American so it's no surprise you don't know this. The diacritic mark in her surname Štrba is an essential part. In my country, for example, Štrba and Strba would be considered different surnames. Stop with this Anglocentrism and move the page properly. Shumkichi (talk) 01:12, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Yanga Chief
Hello Onel5969. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Yanga Chief, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: In my opinion, the 2022 article is sufficiently different enough to the one deleted via Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Yanga Chief in 2019 to avoid outright WP:G4 deletion. That said, the 2022 article would appear to be sourced from references that would not be considered reliable, and second WP:AFD might result in a similar outcome. Thank you. Shirt58 (talk) 09:18, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Review the draft
Hello hope you are doing well. I had created an article named Arham Abbasi which was deleted previous day and the reason was G4. And the admin User:Justlettersandnumbers, who deleted the page suggested me that the article is better then the previous one and he/she told me to expand and submit the existing draft (Draft:Arham Abbasi) which has been created already by an another edit. I have expanded the draft and now I have selected the draft for review. So I will be thankful if you check and review the draft. Thank you in advance. Trakinwiki (talk) 05:05, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. The article needs to pass either WP:NACTOR or WP:GNG, hopefully both. At this point, there's nothing in the article to show that it passes either. Please read those guidelines and they'll help you understand. Onel5969 TT me 10:50, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello, trust you are doing fine. I am a bit confused why this article was moved to draft ... your rather short statement that "(the article) is not suitable as written to remain published" is not very helpful in understanding the reasons. The article is well sourced with extremely reliable and respected sources. It has been live and continuously being improved between 14th December and today.
IMHO, other articles with the same or less merit than this article are passed by WP to be "suitable to remain published", I can cite several dozen examples including Annelies_Strba
Can you please check the article and let me know why this should not remain published? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Shubhra_Mohanty User_talk:Wadlin13 (talk)Wadlin13 (talk) 08:26, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- First, I didn't leave a rather short statement, but a full paragraph explaining why it was draftified, second, I did leave a short edit summary, although not what you state above, which very explicitly said the reason for the move. Onel5969 TT me 10:51, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
Hello, Greetings! I have reviewed the article again, added some more respectable references. I have strong reasons to believe that the article does meet the WP:GNG guidelines.

Eddy's World
I wish you could have consulted with me before deleting this page. I was not aware that there were copyvios. I thought the problem with the previous delete was lack of notability. I worked very hard to address that issue and now I find that the page is being again deleted but for a different reason. I searched and found one sentence that seems to be copied from HERE. Perhaps there are other copyvios I did not find. But could I at least have a chance to fix the problem before it is summarily deleted.Toploftical (talk) 15:20, 14 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. I didn't delete the page, I redirected it. After that, the offending copyvio was Revdel'd by an admin. Copyvios are an issue that you really can't "work on", per WP policy they have to be removed as quickly as possible. I don't have access to the original post, since it has been removed, but you might ask the admin who did the revdel. Onel5969 TT me 18:40, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi! I noticed that a page I made was deleted. (I think)
I see you have good experience on here. Can you please tell me what the issue is or offer advice? You decide what articles are good on Wikipedia? You just wrote (no notability outside show). People have to be on multiple TV shows or...
I thought an interview in People was good enough. What about this one? Tiffany Hendra
Just trying to figure this out. How do you decide? Thank you
Table at dorsia (talk) 18:02, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Reality show participants have to show notability outside of the show. If all of the press revolves around their participation in a show, then consensus has been to simply redirect them to the show. If they've developed notability outside a show, then there will be press coverage. A good example of this are are contestants on The Voice. If after the show, even though they finished 5th, they get a record contract and put out some albums, they'll be notable, otherwise they'll simply get redirected. And interviews are considered primary sources, and as such do not count towards notability. I hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 18:43, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks. That is pretty clear. That makes sense as to why the Tiffany Hendra page is ok. Sounds good to me. Thank you for helping me. Table at dorsia (talk) 19:50, 15 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello please do not revert back the changes I made. These are in good faith and not vandalism. You can see why I made them in the comments in Talk:A Totally Hermetic Electron-Nucleus Apparatus. Note also the COI statement that I made in May 2021, and corresponding warning statement in the draft version of Draft:A Totally Hermetic Electron-Nucleus Apparatus. Draft article was approved with those in place. If you are worried about that, note that the page that you reverted to was written by me. Migue.arratia — Preceding undated comment added 06:28, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

WP:AFC Helper News
Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.
- AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
- The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.
Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Kayako
I'm not sure if you and 2001:4455:364:A800:69ED:98AE:B3B4:FB90 are the same or different users, but it's confusing to me that Kayako Saeki has been summarily redirected twice. Kayako and Sadako Yamamura are the two biggest J-horror icons and are essentially Japan's Freddy and Jason. Redirecting those pages is at least going to require a deletion discussion.
The main reason given on the Kayako talk page for why it (and several other Ju-On / Ringu articles) were redirected is that they are currently poorly-written and sourced, and require rewrites. However, that line of reasoning has no barring on WP:GNG and fails deletion criteria.
A few of the other templated/redirected articles were also questionable, such as the original Ringu novel, the Ringu novel series (although I could easily see a merger with The Ring (franchise)), the original sequel to The Ring (Spiral), the original protagonist, and the Korean remake. Those are substantial enough topics to warrant a discussion imo. Darkknight2149 18:04, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- Actually, articles without sources (which 2 of them are) can be redirected at any point in time, and should not be reverted, as per WP policy (see WP:BURDEN), until reliable sourcing is provided. The third article also does not have enough in-depth sourcing from independent sourcing to show it meets GNG either.Onel5969 TT me 19:12, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- WP:BURDEN refers to the addition of uncited claims within an article, it's not an excuse to blank one. The articles are also backed by the primary sources discussed in the article, which isn't enough to sustain them, but also doesn't fall under the scope of WP:BURDEN. Redirects can be contested by anyone, per WP:BRD and the deletion process. It isn't something you can decide to do unilaterally without discussion, especially if there is doubt in the primary reasons it was redirected. Darkknight2149 21:17, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
- If the entire article is uncited... do the math. BRD is guideline. BURDEN is policy. Onel5969 TT me 22:15, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you changed the The Great Canadian Baking Show (season 5) into a redirect for the reason that WP: Verify is required.
I would like to restore the page, the issue appears to be that it needs to be proven that season 5 of The Great Canadian Baking Show actually occurred/exists? And the citation on the page from the primary source, CBC, which aired the series, was insufficient? I've added as many verifiable citations as possible to prove that it actually aired and the season was not made up. If there continues to be issues, could this be discussed on Talk: The Great Canadian Baking Show (season 5)? Thank you - EikaKou (talk) 03:36, 17 February 2022 (UTC)

Devlet III to draftspace
Could it be that you are unfamiliar with the literature? Central Asian history is constructed from scattered sources in obscure languages that have not been thoroughly studied. This article is about the same quality as most biographies of Central Asian rulers. Given the poor sources I see no way to improve it. Am I missing something? Benjamin Trovato (talk) 05:05, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi. First, when you leave a message regarding a particular article, please leave a link to that article. Second, not sure what literature you are speaking about. If you're talking about the single, unreliable source you link to, than you are correct, I am unfamiliar with it. Other than the fact that it's an unreliable source. Second, the source does not mention, but I believe the equivalent is Devlet Giray Black. Regardless, the over-riding concepts are WP:RS and WP:VERIFY. Most articles require at least 2-3 sources, but they must be reliable. The fact that other articles about Central Asian rulers are in a crappy state, is called an WP:OSE argument. Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 11:04, 19 February 2022 (UTC)
- I was referring to the entire scholarly literature on the history of inner Asia. Sources to improve the article either do not exist or in some obscure location that I have not found. Benjamin Trovato (talk) 01:45, 21 February 2022 (UTC)
- I do not understand this. The purpose of draftspace is to make improvements. The article is a summary of the best scholarship that I could find and I do not see any way that it could be improved. Do you know any sources that could be used to improve the article? Benjamin Trovato (talk) 05:39, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
- If there is only a single unreliable source, than it is not an encyclopedic topic. Articles on WP have to pass WP:VERIFY and WP:GNG, neither of which this article does. If you are having difficulty finding sources, you might pose a question at the appropriate project talkpage, asking for help. Onel5969 TT me 11:50, 26 February 2022 (UTC).

- Are you unfamiliar with inner Asian history, or am I? First, there is no binary distinction between reliable and unreliable. There are degrees of reliability and the sources for inner Asia are much less reliable than those for modern Europe. We must use the sources we have. The idea is to summarize the best sources available and make improvements as new information is found. I see no reason to suppress what little information we have when better information is not available. Wikipedia articles are placed in mainspace so that people can improve them when improvements are possible.Benjamin Trovato (talk) 03:17, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Blanking-and-redirecting articles after being reverted
Hi Onel5969. I made a request to you at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Hong Kong#Mass housing estates articles blanking/ redirecting to self-revert the edits where you blank-and-redirected a second time.
Wikipedia:Deletion policy#Redirection says:In "Mass housing estates articles blanking/ redirecting", you blank-and-redirected the articles a second time which is a violation of the deletion policy.

Thank you, Cunard (talk) 09:36, 21 February 2022 (UTC)A page can be blanked and redirected if there is a suitable page to redirect to, and if the resulting redirect is not inappropriate.

Suitable venues for doing so include the article's talk page and Wikipedia:Articles for Deletion.

Disruptive editor
Hello. A user who seems to be disruptive following edits on Pashtun name (reverted back by you), Ytpks896, has also been removing content from Afghan name. These edits were made 18 days ago but has gone unnoticed until I discovered it just now. Another user, Hv3f5, reverted Ytpks896's content removal on Afghan name but the latter reverted it again with a reason given as unexplained. This editor is being disruptive by constantly making these reversions, all without valid reasons, and I suspect they're trying to "hide" it with the comment of "unexplained". I will now revert this person's edit again but further action is needed against the editor, as well as to patrol/protect the article in question. --WR 23:55, 22 February 2022 (UTC)

More AfDs needed?
If you look at User:Wikipedian India, it appears that this editor intends to create an article for every person in the India Army who was killed in action and posthumously received a medal. All show same pattern, down to photo of wife receiving the medal. I am going to see if I can get the attention of an Admin, perhaps to (strongly) advise to stop this effort.

Excessive copyvio revdel (cv-revdel)
A whole chunk of revisions that were not in breach of copyright have been removed from public view, so we can no longer see who added what or why, particlarly in the 'Reception' section.
Please only blank out the specific revisions that contained copyright-infringing changes.
Jakeqz (talk) 00:40, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry Jakeqz - That's not the way revdel works. Since the copyrighted material appears in EVERY VERSION of the article from when it was first inserted, the revdel must contain all the edits from when it was inserted, through when it was deleted. I myself didn't know this until about 2 years ago. I had been doing it the way you suggested, but was told that was incorrect, which is when I learned the reason. Onel5969 TT me 00:44, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hmm. I'm used to version control software like `git` where it would be possible for super-admins to 'rewrite history' in such a way that the non-copyvio edits can still be seen individially in all their glory. I wanted to try to 'thank' someone for a well-sourced review quote that seems to accurately describe the film (which I am yet to watch). But now it is impossible to determine who added that quotation. IMO this is something that needs to be fixed, but it is probably and arguably never going to be top of the agenda. Jakeqz (talk) 02:03, 24 February 2022 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker)Yeah, probably not, changing versions of history? The reason we have it that way is to be able to attribute who added what to any page, as part of our creative commons license. Happy Editing--IAmChaos 04:00, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Inline citations for math articles
About the need for inline citations. Math articles often do not provide inline citations because the materials can be checked using a pure logic. I know that in Wikipedia, all the materials need to be sourced. But the materials do appear in the books cited in the references (just that sometimes online citations are not provided). For the mac lane article, I have at least added an inline citation. I hope this clears the issue. -- Taku (talk) 12:19, 24 February 2022 (UTC)

Your incorrect redirect and unconstructive reversion of Vileda
If an article needs more WP:VERIFY and WP:PRIMARY, the solution is not to redirect it to the wrong place.
It is wrong to redirect a parent brand, Vileda to what is effectively a sub-brand, O-Cedar. If there is to be any redirection, it is to be in the opposite direction. If you wish to improve Wikipedia, then reverse the redirect, or find sources for Vileda rather than incorrectly redirecting it. --Cornellier (talk) 14:15, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry, it's a valid redirect - and redirecting an article which does not establish either WP:GNG or WP:CORPDEPTH is a valid move. If you wish to create an article on Vileda, please feel free to do so, and provide enough sourcing so that it passes those two criteria. The O-Cedar article is equally as dreadful, but if they are indeed the same company, than the O-Cedar article should be expanded. And if there was a name change, than the existing article should be moved. Onel5969 TT me 15:03, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

About Peranakan cuisine - G5 in one of the templates? Or categories?
Hi Onel5969,
This article currently (UTC 12:28 AM) displays with a WP:G5 tag.
This article may meet Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion as a page created by a banned or blocked user (Awanama – SPI confirmed suspected) in violation of the user's ban or block, with no substantial edits by others. See CSD G5.
My initial speedy decline response would have been "This article was created on 27 January 2006 by Makewa. Unless I am missing something, that user has never been tagged as a Awanama sockpuppet."
It would appear to me that the G5 applies to one or perhaps more of the templates and/or categories attached to the page.
- {{Cuisine of Indonesia}}
- {{Cuisine of Malaysia}}
- {{Cuisine of China}}
I'm Teh CIR about technical stuff like this. Could you possibly look into this and specifically identify the templates and/or categories that need G5-ing?
Pete AU aka --Shirt58 (talk) 10:52, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Shirt58 - okay, this is a bit bizarre, it looks like the CSD tag was never actually added by anyone, but was somehow added automatically during this edit, when Awanama, who is indeed a puppeteer, added the {{Cuisine of Malaysia}} template. Looking forward, that automatic add occurred when the G5 template was added to the template by an ip editor. Apparently when the underlying template got tagged for G5, it auto populated any articles it was on. However, imho, as much as I hate sockpuppetry, the template does not appear to be a valid G5 candidate, as Awanama created it on 7 October 2020, and was not blocked until December of that year. I took the incentive and removed the G5 notice from the template, because I wanted to see if that removed it from the article, and it did. That appeared to be the only template which was tagged. I actually did not see a {{Cuisine of China}} on the article.
- Curious as to why you brought this to my attention? Onel5969 TT me 11:45, 26 February 2022 (UTC)

Conica AG
Hi Onel 5969, regarding your tags on Conica AG: I have checked all sources again of which a high number is in German language (I am German). One of those is e.g. SRF, the public and main Swiss (German speaking) broadcaster, that serves twice as source and can be considered independent with no doubt. Others are reliable international or regional professional media in the fields of athletics in general and running in particular. Nevertheless, it was and is a current topic during and after the Olympic Games in Tokyo, where some athletes had problems with the surfaces of the running tracks used there. I am confident that this article can be expanded and would consider it more of an already well developed stub that needs only a bit more flesh on the bones. This is the way. I’ll take care. There is more to come! Respicefinem (talk) 00:30, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Respicefinem, the SRF is a good source. I haven't checked all of them, but the 8 or so I looked at all seemed to be primary or press release type material. That's why I tagged it, rather than prodding or AfD'ing it. I'll let another reviewer take a deeper dive into it. Onel5969 TT me 15:14, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

I see as the note below that it's now been taken to AfD (and while I agree with the nom's assessment, I won't be participating in, since it's canvassing -- although I would have if I hadn't been canvassed), so we'll see what the community thinks.

- Hi Stev201961 - it's most likely notable, but you need to make sure everything is cited and footnoted. I moved it into draft so that you could work on it. The history section is almost totally uncited as is the master section, meeting places and ritual are totally uncited. In addition, in your list of notable members, if there is no link to an article, you need a citation (and quite frankly, if there is no article, they should be removed from the list), and if there is a link, but the WP doesn't mention they were a member (e.g. William Reid Clanny), then that should have a ref.

I see that, yet again, you have moved a perfectly reasonable article, which includes independent references, into draftspace.

If you have an issue with articles that i write please can you help me to improve them rather than unilaterally removing them from Wikipedia? Rillington (talk) 12:42, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- Moving it to mainspace, rather than asking to have it deleted, is attempting to help you improve them. First, when you leave a message for an editor, it's polite to link to the item under discussion. Second, half the brief article is unsourced. I could have removed the unsourced material, but rather than gut the article, I moved it to draft to allow you the time to supply citations and footnotes. Third, currently there is not enough in-depth coverage about the station to show that it passes WP:GNG. Fourth, always happy to help, but it would be better if you approached it civilly. I hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 12:51, 3 March 2022 (UTC)

Please accept my apologies if you think I have been rude but you have to appreciate that when the same person draftifies three articles on two separate occasions, one isn't going to be too happy about it. And the reason I didn't mention the articles by name was due to my overall point about draftifying my articles.

Looking at two you made here and here. They were absolutely stubs with little information so I understand the redirects. However, both are bestsellers.

My global contributions can be found out here. I am not hiding anything to evade getting found out. As you can see from my userpage in Meta, I am having pretty well understanding of Wikipedia/Wikimedia and their policies.

In such scenario, there is chance of me violating the policies. I can't figure out which sentence in my write-up made you to think that have violated COI. I am a well-known writer of science and ICT articles in Kannada. I do get invitations to be the guest and participate in many programs like book-releases, seminars, conferences, etc. I do sit with many dignitaries and stalwarts on the dias at many programs. These may make people to feel they are my friends or known to me quite well, which need not be true. Regarding the article that I wrote about Girish Rao Hatwar, he is a popular Kannada writer. His books are constantly in the weekly top ten books of Kannada. Hence notability criteria is met.

I do get invitations to be the guest and participate in many programs like book-releases, seminars, conferences, etc. I do sit with many dignitaries and stalwarts on the dias at many programs. These may make people to feel they are my friends or known to me quite well, which need not be true. Regarding the article that I wrote about Girish Rao Hatwar, he is a popular Kannada writer. His books are constantly in the weekly top ten books of Kannada. Hence notability criteria is met. Hence I request you to move the article back to main space.--Pavanaja (talk) 11:00, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
Moving The Dip (Band) to draft
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:The_Dip_(band) I'll work on adding more references, although as far as I can tell the references I added were all independent (except for links to band information etc). But I'm not sure why you thought there was a WP:UPE or WP:COI issue? I'm not paid by the band or have any relationship with the band, but how do I prove that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamba (talk • contribs) 06:25, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- I didn't question the notability or the sourcing. Frankly I did not look at either. This is an issue where it appears you have a COI/UPE conflict, which I said in the message I left on your talk page. Onel5969 TT me 11:48, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- Maybe I am not familiar enough with Wikipedia to know where to look, but all I see on my Talk page is the comment "there appears to be a WP:UPE or WP:COI conflict." If there is some other place where you explain why this appears to be true, please let me know. Also you wrote "When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, and have addressed the UPE/COI issue..." Your comment above implies the notability is no longer an issue; what I am looking for is guidance on how to "address the UPE/COI issue" since I don't think there is any UPE/COI, and the content I can find on Wikipedia about how to address it seems to assume there *is* an issue. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamba (talk • contribs) 16:41, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- I never said that notability was not an issue, or that sourcing was not an issue. What I said was that I did not look at those, since it was obvious you had a COI/UPE conflict. It is obvious that you have some relationship to the subject, so I would suggest following the guidance which I've pointed to you in the message on your talk page, WP:UPE or WP:COI. Onel5969 TT me 18:22, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- Can you clarify why "it is obvious that I have some relationship to the subject", since I don't? Is it something in the content of the article or the style in which it is written?? It seems I am stuck being asked to prove a negative. Unless being a fan of a band or owning their records disqualifies you from writing about it, which seems excessive. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamba (talk • contribs) 19:21, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- Sorry, no. I don't give hints so that UPE/COI editors can attempt to get around the restrictions. But it's obvious to anyone who reviews articles.Onel5969 TT me 20:21, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- Can you clarify what the next steps are? The guidelines are not clear. Do I add the "connected contributor" thing and somebody reviews the text? Or am I just prohibited from editing an article about this band because you claim I have a COI? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adamba (talk • contribs) 20:47, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Improving the Ontario biker War
Onel5969 hello and thank you for your message I have no problem doing that editing I do apologize I believe when I was making the article I was getting extremely tired so I might have been doing a bit too much close referencing in terms of the language could you please point out to me the sections in the article you wish for me to work on so I may focus my attention in that area? As I did write a fair bit of it from scratch and I tried to fix a fair bit of the 2002 section as well.CanadianHistorian(MMA & History) (talk) 07:31, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hi CanadianHistorian(MMA & History) - you did a nice job after my last notice, but as I said on your talk page, still too similar. I gave you a link in that talk page message, which will bring up Earwig's copyvio report, which will show you the matches between the sources and your article. I've reviewed a few of your articles, and you do good work, I think this is only the 2nd one where I had an issue, keep up the good work. Onel5969 TT me 11:54, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
Onel5969 hello I have made a lot of edits to the page and I compared it it is still a bit high but I do believe that is due to the amount of quoted material I have I have quite a few quotations but take a look I believe it to be acceptable if you deduct the items with literal quotation marks around them
- It looks okay now. The matches are due to quotations, and common expressions. Nice job and thanks for your diligence. Onel5969 TT me 10:35, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
I do apologize about having a slip up in the first place appreciate your help as well. PS do you know much about uploading images to wikimedia Commons if so I do have an important questionCanadianHistorian(MMA & History) (talk) 05:58, 8 March 2022 (UTC)

Zahra Joya
Hello Onel5969, it's been a while! I had been busy this past month so I didn't have much time to make any extensive edits, or create any articles. I've got quite a bit free time now, so I'm back at it ;)
I just created Zahra Joya. Here are my questions:
- Do you have any comments on how I placed the hyperlinks in this article (United States and its allies invaded Afghanistan, US and its allies withdrew their troops, fell to the Taliban, ethnic and religious minority)?
- Is citing 4-6 sources to back up certain claims a bit overkill? In this case, I did so to back up the claim that "being a female journalist in Afghanistan is difficult and dangerous". I couldn't find a pertinent page to hyperlink. I initially had 6 citations for that one phrase, but cut it down to 4.
- What do you think of using Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty as a source? Is it reliable, considering its history and funding?
Thanks again! Mooonswimmer 12:25, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- Glad to see you back Mooonswimmer. As to your questions, regarding the first, the overriding guidelines are WP:EASTEREGG and MOS:EGG. Looking at those, I think the first 3 are fine, but last one, ethnic and religious minority, is a bit of a stretch. Since the fact that she's a religious minority is not mentioned in any of those three sources, I'd delete that whole first sentence, as that seems to be WP:OR, or, conversely, if you provide a source which makes that claim, that would do. Regarding your second question, usually anything over 2 cites is considered overkill (sometimes that gets stretched to 3). The guideline for this is found at WP:CITEKILL, particularly look at the 4th paragraph, which deals with this question specifically. And regarding you're 3rd question, yes I think it's a reliable source. I can't remember if it's ever been discussed at WP:RS, but Radio Free Asia was, and the discussion ended with it being considered reliable, so I would say this would fall under the same rationale. Hope this helps. Keep up the good work. And nice article btw. Onel5969 TT me 14:13, 5 March 2022 (UTC)

Lost Boys (album)
You repeatedly changed into a redirect the page about this album, the question being its "notability". But while thanks to your actions this album (which chartered in the UK with peak position 11) actually doesn't have a proper Wikipedia page, two other Flying Pickets albums do: "Live at the Albany Empire" (which recorded the peak position 48 in the UK charts) and "The Original Flying Pickets: Volume 1" (which never entered in the charts). Could you explain why? Eleuterio P (talk) 10:41, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
- Because there are a lot of poor articles on WP. Onel5969 TT me 00:02, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
- Although I keep disagreeing about the notability of Lost Boys (album), must admit your answer makes sense. Eleuterio P (talk) 20:10, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Eleuterio P - I'm not commenting on the notability of the album, simply on the fact that there is nothing in the article to show it passes WP:GNG or WP:NALBUM. Quite often, I'll redirect an album article, and another editor will revert me, but add the necessary sourcing.Onel5969 TT me 21:43, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

Do you think this article is appropriate? (probably not and should be taken into AfD) this article has been only made up to promote their company and it only contained self published sources. 2001:4455:364:A800:DC01:4741:52BB:EE9A (talk) 00:01, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

You, Onel5969, keep moving the article into draftspace. I do feel annoyed. Ngancheekean (talk) 15:55, 5 March 2022 (UTC)
- I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. This is a real State road under development and it links to the toll authority article that is building the road yet you keep saying there is no proof. Please advise. KINGBOBOFTHENORTH (talk) 21:47, 7 March 2022 (UTC)
- You have to provide sources. Not links to other articles. If you don't know how to add citations and footnotes, please see WP:CIT and WP:CITE, they will show you how to format citations, and what information needs to be included. You might want to try going through the WP:Articles for Creation process. There should be at least 2-3 sources. Hope this helps. Onel5969 TT me 22:46, 7 March 2022 (UTC)

Michael Stammel
If the article can be fixed through normal editing, then it is not a candidate for AfD. Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability. There are plenty of articles online about Michael Stammel. I'd encourage you to help with editing this article instead of submitting for AfD if you are so interested in the subject matter. Instead of allowing the article to be updated, placing it back in draft space, you redirected to another article. After I moved the article to draft space, you submitted for AfD and your only reason is notability. Have you done an online search for Michael Stammel Rensselaer, NY? Again, I invite you to help improve this article as well as other articles on Wikipedia instead of nominating AfD after others have worked hard on producing an article with valid references.
Search for additional sources, if the main concern is notability. The minimum search expected is a normal Google search, a Google Books search, a Google News search, and a Google News archive search. If you find that adequate sources do appear to exist, the fact that they are not yet present in the article is not a proper basis for a nomination. Instead, you should consider citing the sources, using the advice in Wikipedia:Citing sources, or at minimum apply an appropriate template to the page that flags the sourcing concern.
The above are all steps that have not been taken on this article by those proposing deletion due to notoriety. This information is clearly noted in the article: Articles for deletion.

- Wrong. After you reverted the redirect, and made no improvements to the article, I sent it to AfD. Once there, you invalidly moved the article to draft, which I corrected. I have no interest in this non-notable small town mayor. You must wait till the AfD runs its course, which is most likely going to result in either deletion, or redirection to the list. Yes, I did do a WP:BEFORE, and there is not anywhere near enough information out there to show they pass WP:GNG. And I see you've moved it again, in spite of being informed that that was against WP policy. Do it again, and you'll most likely be blocked from editing. Onel5969 TT me 12:31, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
- You are being extremely disrespectful. You have not done your research. There are many articles about Michael Stammel as Mayor, a member of the fire department, ambulance service, serving as emergency coordinator for Amtrak, serving on the County Legislature and as their chairman. There are also many articles about his commitment to environmental threats in the community. So people spend a lot of time working on an article and you decide you don't like the content and move it to a redirect instead of contacting those who put work in to an article and letting them know you are doing a redirect if the article is not improved. I've personally spent a lot of time improving articles that deal with the community I live in. Now just because you don't agree with me you are threating me to be blocked from editing. Is this how Wikipedia really works? You alienate those who actually take the time to improve articles? You nominated an article for deletion just because you were made that I removed the redirect and then claim there is no notability without doing your research. Maybe you need to be blocked from editing since you are not doing proper research. Dellis12144 (talk) 12:38, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
