Speedy deletion declined: Legitimate Businessman Entertainment
Hello CASSIOPEIA. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Legitimate Businessman Entertainment, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: co-founded by notable person, consider merging there per WP:ATD. Thank you. SoWhy 08:29, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
Request on 09:43:44, 6 March 2019 for assistance on AfC submission by Hanswembacher
The artist Mauro Bergonzoli has since almost 20 years exhibitions around the world, sells his artworks to royal families, known actors etc... and you decline the entry for what reason? He is covered in international magazines, did charities in the US etc...
Please advise what is wrong with your revision? I know him as i bought some artworks from him, attended exhibitions...
Hanswembacher (talk) 09:43, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Hanswembacher, Greetings and thank you for the questions above.
- Reasons of decline - Notability requirements: There is a message on the grey panel of the draft page which stated what is required and the reasons of the declined. Pls click on the blue highlighted texts and they will bring you to other pages for detail info. In short, (1) subject need to pass the notability requirements, (2) content claimed need to have significant coverage (at least 3) (3) independent, (4)reliable sources where by the sources (such as from major newspapers and reputable journals and etc) need to (5) talk about the subject in length and in depth and not merely passing mentioned. Pls only resubmit when you have added the inline citation (sources) as per content claimed for review.
- conflict of interest (COI) - since you know/are affiliated with the subject, you have a COI here. Wikipedia discourage editor with COI edit/create about the effected page as it is hard fro editor to maintain neutral point of view of the content written. Pls also declare you COI on your (1) User page and (2) on the article talk page. I have sent you a COI message and pls follow the links for info and instruction.
- pls check out WP:Your First Article and referencing to familiar yourself on the requirements and provide inline citation. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 10:12, 6 March 2019 (UTC)

Exogenous and endogenous variables
Hi Cassiopeia,
You’ve moved my new article Exogenous and endogenous variables to draft space since it is uncited. The problem is that previously around 100 other articles linked to an article that was irrelevant to them. I’ve already moved their links to the new article, which is on the proper topic for them. Even uncited, the new article can be seen to be notable since the topic has been cited in Wikipedia around 100 times. To declare the new article as being not yet certified as notable is to claim that 100 other articles have got it wrong. So notability is indisputable.
What remains to do is simply to cite some references to the concept. I’ll be doing that today or soon thereafter. In the meantime, please restore the article so that people clicking the concept will not land on a redlink redirect. Thanks. Loraof (talk) 15:05, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Loraof Greetings. When you have provided the sources, let me know and I will review and publish the article as for the current stage, the contain can not be verified without sources. Thank you. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 15:10, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- Done. Please take a look. Loraof (talk) 17:50, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
- Loraof Thank you and Done. Cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 18:09, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
Video tutorial "Referencing with VisualEditor" – newsletter issue 1
Good news: the (lengthy!) script draft 1 is complete!
Hello, I am happy to share that script draft 1 is complete and ready for public comment.
The script (link to the Google doc) is much longer than I anticipated, at almost 21 pages!
Although I think that the 21 page script would be a very good introduction to referencing policies and workflows, I am considering dividing it into two or more smaller scripts that would be produced as separate videos. For example, one script could focus on policies and a different script could focus on how to use the citation tool. I am considering this for three reasons:
- People may be more willing to watch shorter videos that have more specific focus.
- Shorter videos may be easier to search for an answer for a single specific question.
- There is a possibility that if I attempt to produce a single video from almost 21 pages of script that I might exceed the budget for this mini-project. I would like for both WMF and the community to be satisfied with the results from this mini-project, and I think that dividing the script into smaller scripts which could be produced separately would be a good way to ensure that the budget for the current grant is not exceeded. While there is a reasonable possibility that I could finish production of the entire 21 pages of script within the current grant, I think that dividing the script would be prudent. After one of the smaller scripts is fully produced within the currently available funding, remaining script could be considered for production within the current grant if there seems to be adequate remaining funds, or could be saved for possible production with a future grant.
Request for constructive criticism and comments
I would very much appreciate constructive criticism and comments regarding the script, preferably by March 10 at 11:59 PM UTC. This is a shorter time window than I would like to provide, but the planned end date for this project is March 14 and I would like to finish video production by the end of March 13 so that I have 24 hours for communications before the grant period ends. If you would like to review the script or make other comments but the end of March 10 is too soon for you, please let me know that you need more time, and I will take that into consideration as I plan for final production and consider whether to request a date extension from WMF. (Extending the finish date for the project would not involve requesting additional funding for the current grant.) I would prefer that the video be done perfectly a few days late than that the video be done on March 14 but have an important error that was not caught during a rush to the finish.
I have three specific requests for feedback:
1. Please find errors in the script. This is a great time to find problems with my work, before the script goes into production and problems become more expensive to fix. Please go to this link in Google Docs and use the Comment feature in the Google Doc.
2. Do you have comments regarding whether the script should be divided, and if so, how it should be divided? Please let me know on the project talk page.
3. How do you feel about the name for the video? Do you prefer "Referencing with VisualEditor" or "Citing sources with VisualEditor", or a third option? Again, please comment on the project talk page. However, if I divide the script then I will create new names for the smaller videos.
Closing comments
Thank you for your interest in this mini-project. I am grateful to be working on a project which I hope will help Wikipedia contributors to be more efficient and effective, and indirectly help to improve Wikipedia's quality by teaching contributors how to identify and to cite reliable sources. I believe that the finished video will be good, and I hope that the community and novice contributors will find the video to be very useful.
Yours in service,

I nominated an article for deletion
Hello, I nominated an article for deletion and I was wondering if I did it correctly. It's called Waco: A New Revelation, a documentary on the Waco siege. You've been very helpful in the past, but if you want to point me to the correct place to ask that would be helpful too. Cheers, Pokerplayer513 (talk) 02:01, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Pokerplayer513, good day. Thank you for your question and if my assistance would yield positive impact on your contribution to Wikipedia, it would be time well-spent. Here are some backgrounds on nominate an article for deletion and the answer of your question will follow after.
- There are several venues under certain conditions whereby an article could be nominated for deletion under certain conditions:
- Criteria for Speedy Deletion (CSD) - a process which bypass the normal deletion discussing process whereby admins delete the nominated articles under certain limited conditions such as pages are deemed pure vandalism / blatant hoaxes, author (creator of the page) requests page to be deleted, pages intimidate / harass their subjects, advertising or promotion pages, pages violate of unambiguous copyright infringement (COPYVIO), pages duplicates an existing topic, improper licenses are used, pages blatantly misuse of Wikipedia as a web host and etc. (see full list HERE).
- Propose deletion (PROD) - (this is the method you employed) - it is for "uncontroversial" deletion and it is used as a shortcut to the normal deletion discussion process whereby the proposal does not meet the strict CSD. PROD can nominate one time only and if PROD tag is removed from the article, editor can NOT retag it. (if the article has been previously PRODed or AfD before and survive the AfD, then it can NOT be PRODed again). So an editor needs to check the article talk page and history page prior performing the nomination. If the tag has not been removed by any editors and admins would delete the page if the conditions of article is deemed not suitable to merit a page in mainspace in Wikipedia.
- Articles for deletion (AfD) - Is the venue whereby the editors in Wikipedia discuss whether an article should be deleted where by the discussion would last for 7 days from the nominated date. Editors who involve in the discussion would vote the article to be kept, merged, redirected, incubated, move/rename or delete the article largely based on notability, sources types and veritably of the subject and sources as per Wikipedia guidelines. The outcome of the is not based on a tally of votes, but on reasonable, logical, Wikipeia policy-based arguments.
- Other venues for deletion for categories, files , misc and others can be found at Wikipedia:Deletion venues.
- Notes before nominating an article for deletion- please
- Check if the article content violate of pages infringe of copyright violation (COPYVIO) - if so, raise a COPYVIO CSD. Pls use Earwig's Copyvio Detector to check if the content of the article violates COPYVIO.
- if the article (usually new article) is blatantly to promote the subject - then tag promotion under CSD
- pls do a WP:BEFORE - for independent, reliable sources (if there is no sources or enough sources in the article) before nominated the page for AfD. If independent, reliable sources are found to support the content claimed in the article, editors are encouraged to add the sources into the page.
- pls check if the subject pass the notability requirements.
- Your question - pls see Wikipedia:Notability (films) and IMHO subject does receive enough coverage from independent reliable sources to merit a page in Wikipedia main space. - see Here.
- Kindly pop back here if you need further clarification of anything I could help. You might want to have a look at the current AfD and might want to join in the discussion of the topics of your interest. cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 05:21, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
Take my article out of draft - Draft:A Very British History
Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Abbas1122 (talk • contribs) 17:08, 8 March 2019 (UTC)
- Hi Abbas1122 Good day, Thank you for adding the sources. The sources you have provided are primary sources (BBC) (sources associated with the subject) for such they could NOT contribute to the notability of the subject as they are not independent from the subject. We need at least 3 secondary reliable sources, sources such as from reputable newspapers which are not associate (are independent) from BBC such as THIS ONE. Let me know once you have provided the source, give so I could review the draft article and get it publish for you in the Wikipedia mainspace. Cheers. CASSIOPEIA(talk) 07:49, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
Jamie Moyer personal information
Hi, I'm not well versed in how wiki editing works but have been asked by Jamie Moyer to intervene on his behalf. Although it has not gotten much attention, Jamie and Karen were divorced in 2017 and both have moved on, as they say. Jamie would like references to Karen Moyer, his marriage, the Moyer Foundation, and his ex-father-in-law (Digger Phelps) removed from the wiki page. In general, he's happy with the discussion of his career on the ((Jamie Moyer)) wiki page but not with the references to his personal life. He would like them removed if possible. He sent me a copy of his divorce decree (San Diego County). It may be possible to find it referenced online somewhere. You can contact me at maganong@hotmail.com if you want further clarification. Thanks. DaisyCougan (talk) 20:23, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
