Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum C-Class
I requested a copyedit for the article Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, and was wondering you could check it against the C-Class criteria please? You were recommend by User:Alexandermcnabb after I initially asked him. He also said that he'd personally go for a B-Class, so just do whatever you feel is right. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:18, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
- Comment. User:Mr rnddude believes it fails to satisfy the B1 criterion, so perhaps just checking it against the C-Class criteria is best. Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 12:25, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

Editing "Curtis Stone".
Hello Materialscientist. I indeed added his appearance in Masterchef Australia. This episode was broadcasted here in the Netherlands yesterday. The link I provided as reference was the wiki-page of Masterchef Australia. There he's mentioned twice: "Guest Chefs" > "California Week" and "Episodes and ratings" > "55/11-5 Thursday, 14 July 2016" I thought it would be clear enough (because there're also the references). Was I wrong with this? Eddydevries (talk) 08:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi Materialscientist.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Peter Bart
Hello Materialscientist,
Thank you for watching over the Wiki page for Peter Bart! My name is Michael Mason and I am Peter Bart's Social Media Director. He messaged me yesterday saying that his Wiki page was inaccurate and asked me if I could update it with his bio. Unfortunately as his bio came directly from him and as such I have no source besides Peter himself. We can back parts of it up with references but some things like his personal life we have no references for. We are willing to provide any evidence that you would need that the bio came from Peter. Please let me know. Thank you!
Dimitri Smirnoff
Dimitri Smirnoff was nmarried to my mother, whom I cite in my edits; the article was written by an amateur with citsations that are not from the professional opera literature. I am the owner of thef Dimitri Smirnoff archives. The name is an incorrect transliteration of the Russian. Do you speak Russian? I do and have published in the field. I am not certain why you are taking it upon yourself to edit my edits when you are clearly not an expert in the field. Perhaps I can provide you with a referral for a job as a translator from Russian to English, specifically of the book: S.G.Isakov, Charodei Zvuka, Singer Dimitri Smirnoff, Estonia, Aleksandra Publisher Nelly Melts, Box 445 Tallinn 10101 Estonia email: nmelts@hot.ee Publisher: AO Kommunalproekt tel: 6411683

Eva Marie's Inactivity over 30 days from WWE
Dear Sir,
Eva Marie(Real name Natalie Marie Coyle) Who got suspended on august 18 2016 from WWE I've simply mentioned that after her suspension she's currently inactive because she is filming a movie Inconceivable 2017. none of the user or editer mentioned on her page on the section "Other Media" and "Professional Wrestling Career".
Tyson Kidd a.k.a Theodore James Wilson
I know the reason why Tyson denies to be in Season 6 of Total Divas. as he is curently inactive from WWE due to spinal injury. Spinal injury maybe the reason of this.

Dover, TN
Not sure what kind of source citation you want for the information that I added about my hometown. It is a simple fact that there is not a hospital in Dover, Tn. I know the urgent care is there because I see it as I drive by every day. I did a yellowpages.com search and referenced the search page showing that there is no hospital referenced in Dover. I repeated this for the urgent care. Dover is a small town and has no books or magazines that have this information presently published.
DYK update failed again
Materialscientist, DYKUpdateBot seems to be down again today, despite Shubinator having restarted it early on November 16. Do you think you could do a manual update? The queue that needs to be promoted is Queue 2. Many thanks. (Note: I did post on Shubinator's page a couple of minutes ago, so there is the tiniest chance that he's been able to kick the bot back into life, but as he isn't on very often, the odds are against it. You may still want to check before starting the update.) BlueMoonset (talk) 00:48, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
Article that it was just trying to make it perfect but you had to changed it and delete the things I'd really like?
Why did you deleted the "Category:Meat" for "seafood"? You like to make things so it is not perfect anymore. It is very, very odd there is not a "Category:Meat" for "seafood". However, why there is a "Category:Meat" for "Category:Seafood"? There is defentely a "Category:Meat" for "beef", "poultry", and "pork", but not "seafood"? Also, there is defentely a "Category:Meat" for "Category:Beef", "Category:Poultry", and "Category:Pork"?
- Seafood is not only meat, but also seaweed and alike. Materialscientist (talk) 11:38, 17 November 2016 (UTC)
Can you please stop deleting the "Category:Meat" for "seafood".

Electrospinning
Hi Glad to see someone is patrolling changes. My apologies for not leaving a better explanation of my changes. I usually do. Anyway, I was trying to clean up the Medical Uses section of the electrospinning page. There was a large section on "Endogenous Tissue Growth" shoehorned in the middle that has been copied verbatim from another online source and has only passing relevance to electrospinning. Further, that section on ETG broke up the section list of Medical Use topics into two lists which were at least partially redundant. Lastly, ETG is part of Tissue Engineering, and doesn't need its own additional bolded topic.
My edits were to fix both of those problems. As it stands now, that subsection is a complete mess.
