Wiki What?

Thanks for your message. The video you referenced in my edits of T.J. Miller is not promotional but a series whose sole goal is to fact check individual's Wikipedia pages. Thank you

@Mrazzle: The edits promote a non notable facebook page. Please read WP:RS. Dammitkevin (talk) 11:40, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The video is unequivocally notable per the Content Rules—T.J. Miller is fact checking his own Wikipedia page; a new page on 'Wiki What?' was not created. The video is merely cited as a verified and objective reference source.

@Mrazzle: Please cite the "Content Rules" that make this facebook page notable. Dammitkevin (talk) 11:52, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the opportunity to: Relationship between the subject, the article, and Wikipedia[edit] Dealing with edits by the subject of the article

Subjects sometimes become involved in editing material about themselves, either directly or through a representative. The Arbitration Committee has ruled in favor of showing leniency to BLP subjects who try to fix what they see as errors or unfair material. Editors should make every effort to act with kindness toward the subjects of biographical material when the subjects arrive to express concern. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons#Dealing_with_edits_by_the_subject_of_the_article

@Mrazzle: That doesn't in any way make a facebook page notable. Are you admitting that you have a conflict of interest because you are editing on behalf of the article subject? Dammitkevin (talk) 12:02, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not at all, and it's not a Facebook page. It's a video series that just happens to be airing on Facebook. It's unsettling to think that you are striking revisions without so much as viewing the references cited. I thought the state goal of Wikipedia was "to get it right."

@Mrazzle: Do you or do you not have a connection to the article subject? Dammitkevin (talk) 12:05, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I do not have any connection in any way to the article subject. I've been helping edit his page for the past few months, that is all.

@Mrazzle: You still haven't cited the "Content Rules" that make this facebook page notable. Do you have any connect to it? Dammitkevin (talk) 12:27, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I did, see above: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons#Dealing_with_edits_by_the_subject_of_the_article

Speedy deletion contested: Ruchita

Hello Dammitkevin, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Ruchita, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: This is a test page created by a brand new editor, usersify would work here. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Anoptimistix (talk) 12:17, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Anoptimistix: G2 exists for a reason: test pages don't need to exist. Dammitkevin (talk) 12:19, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I have nominated it for Afd usersify, the page can simply moved to the subspace of the user without any need of deletion. Also I was concerned about editor retention as the page author is a brand new user. Hope you understand, Have a lovely Day. Anoptimistix (talk) 12:24, 4 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
