Why copy and rewrite someone’s article Latest comment: 13 hours ago 1 comment 1 person in discussion You created this article (https://w.wiki/9Bav) lifted someone’s hard work of reasearching . Its unfair to copy and rewritesomeone article in the sanbox and quickly publish first. As a newbie we help in reviewing articles by newbies as we encourage them from their sandbox. When community members participate in contest and this kind of things happens they stop newbies from staying in the community. In as much as this is free and open, the right thing needs to be done. If all volunteers do this there is no point contesting and participatning in contest or feeling like they have done something when we are in a community that also give credit to volunteers based on their edits.

This act is unfair and this article must be reversed to rightful person who started the research to publish. As you can see here - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Adansi11/sandbox.

This act must not be entertained in this space. Wikimedia stands for fairness and inclusivity.

Request reason:

Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy. My IP address is 197.251.187.104. My ISP keeps changing the IP Address. Heatrave (talk) 19:04, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Decline reason:

Yes, that's dynamic IP for you. Instead of getting into a really technical argument about whether your IP is an open proxy, I will just tell you that for that very reason it's much easier to advise you to use different devices, perhaps on another IP, to edit, and/or go to WP:IPECPROXY and request IP block exemption per the instructions there, which do not require editing access to follow. — Daniel Case (talk) 06:32, 4 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Kwame Yogot (May 2)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Lopifalko was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Needs independent sources.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Kwame Yogot and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Kwame Yogot, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Kwame Yogot

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Kwame Yogot requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from https://beatznation.com/profile/kwame-yogot/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. - Rich^T|C|E-Mail 13:55, 2 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you still feel that this subject is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with these policies.

Proposed deletion of Cape Town Stock Exchange

The article Cape Town Stock Exchange has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable stock exchange, not enough information to pass WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

S0091 (talk) 15:59, 18 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@S0091 thank you for your meticulous feedback.

As per Wikipedia's defining criteria of a Record chart (referenced in the article as a music chart), it includes streaming activity, number of sales and number of downloads as chart criteria. Hence the reference is duly warranted as a noteworthy mention.

Boomplay is the biggest streaming platform in Africa and is critical to the growth of music from the African continent. Recently, through an official announcement, data from Boomplay will count towards Billboard official chart ratings. At any point in time, there are a maximum of 100 songs on Top 100 which would not accomodate artistes on a global scale. Infact, Billboard chart is scaled towards the US Market primarily before everywhere else. This alone makes it difficult for indie artistes even in the United States to earn a place on the chart, talk less of elsewhere. A UCLA article has raised concerns about the bias of the Billboard chart and this in effect raises concerns on the some criteria and sections of WP:Charts.

To the topic of user-generated content, it can be quite tricky as most online platforms have some form of user-generated content. Here is an example from Forbes, which has a section on its platform that features articles from vetted contributors. Does this suddenly discredit the platfom? Or will a submission be rejected because it was sources from a Forbes contributor article?

Promotion as defined by Wikitionary, indicates the dissemination of information in order to increase its popularity. Without promotion, there are a myriad of information that will go unnoticed. Every source, whether independently written or not can be quoted for promotional purposes especially within the music space. The number one song on billboard chart, will in effect promote the song and lead to more sales, despite being independently drafted into the chart.

Please review your reasons for the rejection and propose improvements. Heatrave (talk) 12:04, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Heatrave, Record chart is a Wikipedia article and not relevant to the notability guidelines for musicians or the related WP:CHARTS guideline, which are based upon consensus by the Wikipedia community. If you believe it a chart meets the inclusion guidelines outlined at WP:CHARTS, you can start a discussion on the talk page to get consensus to include it but note it states Charts which rank material from a single vendor or network are generally unsuitable for inclusion in articles. As for WP:user-generated content, regardless of the publisher, those are generally considered unreliable and cannot be used to establish notability. For Forbes specifically, see WP:FORBESCON which states article's written by contributors are considered user-generated so generally not reliable. You are correct that a source writing about a topic may inherently promote that topic regardless if the coverage is positive or negative. Even so, sources must meet the reliable source criteria and must be independent to count toward notability. S0091 (talk) 14:00, 25 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your message.

I agree that there are sections of the article that sounded promotional but that was not the intention. Fortunately, I received help from an editor to correct that and hence i believe that is fixed. The topic is very notable as he is one of the few perfumers in Africa.

I will like you to review your decision as this article has been adequately cited. That industry is very niche and may not have 1000s of citations but meets all the notability requirements as stated by Wikipedia Heatrave (talk) 23:02, 20 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Managing a conflict of interest

Hello, Heatrave. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page Yusif Meizongo Jnr, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{edit COI}} template);
disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest § How to disclose a COI);
avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam § External link spamming);
do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:20, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, what is your relationship to Yusif Meizongo Jnr? Thanks, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:21, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@DoubleGrazing i have no relationship with the subject. Maybe you can say that we are both African but I like to write about African stories and increase the representation of our people on the platform.

The photo used in that article, which you uploaded as your 'own work' – it has clearly been taken at close quarters; can you tell me how you came to take that picture, if you've no personal or professional connection to this person? Thanks, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:31, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@DoubleGrazing OK i get the confusion. I didn't take the picture. Possibly a mistake on my part. It is the work of the subject found during my research for the article. How can I rectify this? Thank you for bringing it to my notice. Heatrave (talk) 06:48, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I see. I'll edit it out of the article, and request that it is deleted. Please don't upload images belonging to third parties, as this violates copyright law. Thank you. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 06:59, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@DoubleGrazing thank you for the rectification. I appreciate it. Heatrave (talk) 07:03, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@DoubleGrazing can i use a third party picture and attribute? Or does that also violate copyright? Heatrave (talk) 07:09, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The short answer is no. That's because images uploaded into Wikimedia Commons are made freely available in the public domain. So if you upload someone else's content, even with attribution, you are taking away their copyright, and they are unlikely to be very happy with that.

There are some very limited 'fair use' exceptions, eg. company logos and music album covers can be used in the articles on those topics, and of course some things are not in copyright to begin with (mainly if they've been released under a compatible Creative Commons licence, or are so old that the copyright has already expired), but these are relatively rare exceptions.

All that being said, I'm not really an expert on this, so if you have questions about copyright or what can be uploaded and how, you can ask at the Commons help desk. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:24, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Yusif Meizongo Jnr (October 21)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by Timtrent were:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission is not adequately supported by reliable sources. Reliable sources are required so that information can be verified. If you need help with referencing, please see Referencing for beginners and Citing sources.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The references consist of interviews with the subject, some with commentary, and gossip column-like material, coupled with apparent churnalism. It requires complete re-referencing in order to move forwards.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Yusif Meizongo Jnr and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.

@Qcne Thanks for your feedback. Please can you provide assistance on improving references for the article. Thanks in advance. Heatrave (talk) 19:39, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Heatrave Articles about people must pass the WP:NPEOPLE test. Most of your sources are interviews with Yusif, which can not be used to establish notability. The sources you use must be:

- Reliable: Your article should rely on strong, reliable sources that are published by reputable institutions. Primary sources can be used for basic facts (such as a date of creation), but they should be supplemented with strong secondary sources that offer analysis, review, discussion, or interpretation.

- Independent: Your sources should be independent of the subject, for example not self-published or from the subject's own website, and not interviews with people directly connected to the topic.

- Show significant coverage: Your subject should be discussed in detail in the sources you find. The sources should provide in-depth information or analysis about the subject, going beyond basic facts or promotional material.

- From multiple places: Ideally we would like to see three separate reliable, independent, secondary sources that discuss your subject.

- Not original research: Wikipedia articles should summarise existing knowledge about a subject, not present new research. This means you should avoid drawing your own conclusions or analyses from the sources. Stick to summarising what the sources say in a neutral tone.

If you cannot find sources that are appropriate, then I am afraid there can be no article about Yusif at this time.

Let me know if you have any questions. Qcne (talk) 19:44, 23 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

microbiologyMarcus ^{(petri dish)} 15:28, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@MicrobiologyMarcus thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately I disagree with the part on the notability of the subject. The article doesn't focus on the subject but mostly on his work. It is very common in the creative art industry especially in films for the people behind the film to be receive less headlines and coverage than the actor. Most of the sources used have made mention of his contribution to the works. It is against the guidelines of Wikipedia to state something without claim and hence I stuck to mostly his works.

With regards to the tone and NPV, i have tried as much as possible meet the requirements. However if you can highlight where i need to improve, i will be more than happy to do that. Heatrave (talk) 23:48, 25 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Albert Kyei Baffour moved to Draft:Albert Kyei Baffour

I have moved this article back to draft, as it is woefully inadequate for mainspace. Yes, the person has directed/written some things. But, the sources used all mention this person in passing. There's nothing in the sources that rise above passing mention. Please carefully read WP:SIGCOV in particular where it says "Significant coverage is more than a trivial mention". --Hammersoft (talk) 17:34, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've just realized that this draft is a copy of Draft:Albert Kwame Kyei Baffour, which was also denied submission for insufficient sources. Moving forward, please pick one or the other to develop, not both. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 18:00, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Problems with sources

Observing a number of notices on your talk page here, and seeing various attempts at drafts, it would appear you are having significant difficulty in understanding sourcing for articles. Please understand the following is intended to help. You'll need to read a few things. First, it would be a good idea for you to review our General Notability Guideline. You should also read through Wikipedia:Reliable sources and this which will help you understand the difference between primary, secondary, and tertiary sources. In general, we try to focus on using secondary sources here.

I would suggest that you stop moving things to mainspace for the time being, and instead focus on properly developing drafts. I would also encourage you to stop re-submitting drafts that have been previously declined when you've added very little or nothing at all, such as you have done at Draft:Yusif Meizongo Jnr.

If you have any questions about any of this, please let me know. I'll be happy to help. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:05, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

But thank you for the feedback. Please be more specific so i know what exactly to work on. Heatrave (talk) 19:17, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Heatrave There problem here is that the sources cited are majorly promotional pieces. (PS: You don't have to start arguing that, it's something I know). So, you can't show notability in that manner, we need citations to sources that are reliable, independent of the subject and covers the subject significantly or at least close significance. Nothing currently like that in the sources currently cited. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 22:15, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Samuel Kwame Boadu moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Samuel Kwame Boadu, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Samuel Kwame Boadu (1)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Samuel Kwame Boadu (1) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Samuel Kwame Boadu. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

As previously advised, your edits give the impression you have a financial stake in promoting a topic, but you have not complied with Wikipedia's mandatory paid editing disclosure requirements. You were asked to cease editing until you responded by either stating that you are not being directly or indirectly compensated for your edits, or by complying with the mandatory requirements under the Wikimedia Terms of Use that you disclose your employer, client and affiliation. Again, you can post such a disclosure on your user page at User:Heatrave, and the template {{Paid}} can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form: {{paid|user=Heatrave|employer=InsertName|client=InsertName}}.

@Praxidicae I do not have knowledge of a pre-existing article and do not have knowledge of a said financial motivation. Perhaps the previous editor did but i have not received any such financial incentive for this edit. Heatrave (talk) 23:09, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't say anything about any other article.

Yet you uploaded them stating specifically that it was your own work and you had full copyright. Why should we believe anything else you say? GRINCHIDICAE🎄 23:23, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Praxidicae I did a previous search before writing this article and did provide all citations to back any statement. The subject was recommended. If there is a previous thread or article that was done for the subject and subsequently deleted, then i have no idea. I adhere strictly to all wikipedia guidelines and have not received any payments for this edit. Please advise on next steps. Heatrave (talk) 23:16, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't ask any of that in my previous question. How are the dozens of photos you uploaded your own work? GRINCHIDICAE🎄 23:18, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Praxidicae the subject was already mentioned in previous articles such as Spoken Word in Ghana, Ajeezay and Spoken Word. I had to research carefully and provide the right sources. The pictures are not mine and can be deleted for copyright if that is the infringement. But nobody has paid me for this edit. Heatrave (talk) 23:28, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be unable to actually answer direct questions. That's concerning. GRINCHIDICAE🎄 23:29, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Praxidicae those pictures are not my own work. Heatrave (talk) 23:31, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

So again, you repeatedly - to the tune of literally dozens of photos - uploaded items where you literally had to click to certify they were in fact your own work and you had permission, so why should anyone believe after your promotional editing and blatant lies about copyright, that you're suddenly telling the truth about everything else? Seems a stretch. GRINCHIDICAE🎄 23:33, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Rhymesonny moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Rhymesonny, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

The comment the reviewer left was:

I went back and forth quite a bit here. On the one hand, the article subject has definitely made a name for himself and appears to be noteworthy. On the other hand, currently the list of awards is the longest section of this submission, and most of the references relate to the various awards the subject has received. I'm skeptical whether subjects would be considered notable solely based on having received a large number of awards (I can't find any specific guideline on it, but it raises some red flags). My recommendation would be to expand the other sections of the submission to describe the subject's career and life in more detail, in contexts other than the awards they have received, and provide sources that describe the subject in more detail (again, beyond just validating his acheivements

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by BuySomeApples were:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
reliable
secondary
strictly independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format.

Hello @MicrobiologyMarcus thanks for your feedback. If notability has been established, don't you think it's best to accept the article and suggest a fix to the Url? Rather than reject the article solely because of the URL Heatrave (talk) 18:02, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Heatrave: Likely notable. Personally, I still had my doubts that it met notability, and then given the bare url for a reference, that tended towards a decline instead of approval. The rest of the sources on the article are okay for citing facts, but they are no more than passing mentions and don't contribute to SIGCOV. Happy to re-review if you can find coverage from a independent secondary and reliable source, that would assuage my notability concerns, feel free to ping me. microbiologyMarcus ^{(petri dish·growths)} 18:07, 28 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of Ecowas Brown Card Insurance Scheme

If this was the first article that you created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

The page Ecowas Brown Card Insurance Scheme has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appeared to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appeared to be a direct copy from https://browncardghana.com/ecowas-brown-card-scheme/. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition has been be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

Yes, it was deleted only for copyright reasons, so please feel free to recreate the article in your own words. I understand that it can be difficult sometimes! I sometimes find it helpful to read the source material first, then try to summarize it without directly referring to it (of course you can look at it afterwards, but this might help avoid the temptation of using the same or substantially similar phrasing).

@Qcne he is a record producer and has recording credits some of the biggest names in the nigerian music industry. He has received nominations in the producer category at multiple Nigerian music awards. He has not yet won any of his nominations but i think that should not discredit his works, which have won awards for the respective artistes. I am not a Nigerian but I started this and hopefully others can come and contribute. I think you should look at it from those lines, not necessary on the convincing coverage, because most of the creative people behind the camera do not receive as much spotlight as do the main characters. You can see this particularly in movies and music. Heatrave (talk) 13:54, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why Steal My Article?

Hello Heatrave, i have come across your article titled Borteyman Sports Compkex, this article was first created by me on wednesday, 14th February and you stole it to publish it today. here is a link to my article showing i was the first to write about this User:Adansi11/sandbox . why did you do that? this is not fair enough Adansi11 (talk) 09:29, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Adansi11, initially I didn't want to respond but as this is an open space I have to set the record straight. Before I jump into that I will let me address a few things.

According to Wikipedia Friendly Space Policy, personal attacks must be avoided at all cost. In the event of a misunderstanding, you must first seek to enquire or start a discourse, rather than throw accusations around. You do not know who will be at the other end of the account you are attacking.
Wikipedia takes copyright seriously. The use of words like "steal" is a very strong word which without defence, can land both you and the person you are accusing in a lot of trouble.
No Editor has the right to make claim to an article. In the footer of every Wikipedia page, you see a creative commons shareAlike license, which renders all texts submitted to the platform to be binded by that copyright. So claiming that an article is yours is not correct to begin with because nobody owns an article on Wikipedia. See Wikipedia:Copyrights

With that said, information in your sandbox is private. Until an article is published into the article space, nothing stops another editor from starting the article. You cannot claim ownership to an article because you started writing about it first. The topic "Borteyman Sports Complex" has been in the news and has received a lot of coverage in the past few days, building up to the All African Games. I can understand your frustration, but I have not had access to your sandbox. Both of our articles are totally different and have no correlation whatsoever. It is just a mere coincidence that we happen to write about the same thing.

There will be a lot of opportunities to create your first article as a newbie but next time you have an issue, address the issue, do not attack the editor.

Happy editing

Vanderwaalforces (talk) 07:09, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces thank you for your feedback. However i do not agree on the conclusion that the listed references are not notable.

Citinewsroom: As far as journalism standards go, this is the most reliable news outlet in Ghana. Their news is researched and written by their journalists via radio, TV and online.
GhanaWeb: This is the biggest online platform in Ghana and to some extent Africa. It has been publishing news since 1999 and it is where majority go to read their news. (Website with the highest traffic)
Graphic Online: This is the online version of one of Ghana's national newspapers, Daily Graphic which has been printing and publishing Ghanaian news six days a week since 1950.
GhPage: You can make a case for GhPage which is a private blog and i will agree. However they have been cited by the big blogs when it comes to news around entertainment, showbiz and lifestyle.

These sources are the most reliable I could find whilst researching about the subject. To say these sources are not reliable infers that most articles about the Ghanaian space are not reliable as these platforms cover 99% of the news in Ghana. If you take these sources out, there are no serious alternatives for news in Ghana.

I will entreat you to reconsider your position on this matter. Thank you. Heatrave (talk) 17:33, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Heatrave, how are you doing today? You literally got this confused, notability isn't reliability, I wasn't disputing the notability of these publications, I was talking about how reliable they could be. You have, as a matter of fact, overrated Citinewsroom, a publication that you think "as far as journalism standards go", "is the most reliable news outlet in Ghana" would not publish a piece without a byline, that is against journalism standard. Pieces like this from Graphic Online are nothing but paid promotional puff pieces, also, the relationship to the Ghanaian government is a red flag. GhanaWeb and GhPage without stress and argument are unreliable publications, even though there are very many articles that are currently based on them.

Again, this is not about whether they are publications that "cover 99% of the news in Ghana" or how long they have existed (even though it sometimes matters), this is about how Wikipedia can rely on them based on WP:RS. We have plenty of publications that were established 5-10 years ago and they're ideal reliable publications. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 20:44, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces first of all thank you for your reply and feedback. I didn't mean to come off as aggressive so if my statement sounded that way, please forgive. Maybe i didn't understand the context of "GhanaWeb, Citinewsroom and Graphic are unreliable sources" as they are one of the major sources around.

That said, I do understand where you are coming from after following the the links you provided. As an editor, i have no control over the sources we find. In an ideal world, we wish and pray for sources written to meet these criteria, but that is not always possible.

Going forward, what would you suggest as the solution for this, as sources are very hard to come by. Heatrave (talk) 21:54, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there Heatrave, I picked no offence at all. Indeed, it sucks that our most popular publications are not doing the right thing most of the times, and yes, we also do not have any control over them, so they keep doing what they do. ~~There's nothing we can do about it.~~ There's something we can do though, create content based on the few reliable sources we can find. I literally don't like depending on unreliable sources and will encourage other editors to do same. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:13, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces thanks for your feedback. Can you provide a general rule of thumb to help me determine if a source is reliable Heatrave (talk) 11:41, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This query is something that I have had in mind for months now, creating a page on my user subpage that will address questions like this. Journalism is, as a matter of fact, wide, and as such there are several rules of thumb for determining a reliable source. Also, it depends on context. I will try and brief you here based on my opinion, then maybe later, I will create that page.

For books, journals articles, etc. Books are mostly reliable, as long as they are not published by the subject of the article or by someone connected to the subject. Journal articles are also reliable if and only if they are published by a reliable Journal. There are several unreliable journals out there, but you'll mostly find reliable ones.

For Newspapers (Print/Online), Media organisations, Blogs, Aggregators, etc, it becomes more complex and requires vast understanding, especially in regions where sources from there are mostly unreliable. Generally, when you say "source", it actually refers to several bodies. For a newspaper, for example, it refers to the newspaper (which is what it mostly likely refers to by many Wikipedians), it could refer to the journalist who published that particular piece, it could also refer to the publisher of the newspaper, that is, the organisation that publishes/owns the paper.

Let's do some scenarios with this, let's say, a reliable journalist/writer publishes a piece in an unreliable newspaper that is owned by an unreliable publisher. An unreliable journalist publishes a piece in a reliable newspaper that is owned by a reliable publisher. Switch this as many times as you can think of, all these could affect the reliability of a piece/source.

Now, for a source to be reliable, it should follow journalism standard professionally, as well as in line with Wikipedia's policy on reliable source (WP:RS). Basically, whenever you are looking for sources, pay attention to whether the newspaper/website has editorial policies which governs how articles are published on the publication, pay attention to whether the source is a news producer or an aggregator, pay attention to whether the particular piece you're citing has a by-line (name of the authors/journalists/writers). Something common in African sources is that they refuse to label their advertorials as so, they mostly publish under no byline and some even do it under an actual journalist's name, it is important to watch out for promotional pieces, there are a lot of them nowadays, all published under no byline or under a journalist's name. Of course, we have some that do clearly state it, either via categorisation or authorship.

There are many things I would love to add but let me not clutter your talk page, lol.

I hope this helps, have a great day ahead. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:48, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces thank you for this thorough response. I have applied your feedback and rectified some of the issues raised. Going forward, I will refer back to this conversation regarding citations when drafting a new article. Thank you for your audience. Heatrave (talk) 16:42, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Samad Davis (May 23)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Ca was:

I hate to decline this draft for now, but I feel like the coverage of this person is too shaky. It mostly comprises of short articles that just mentions he directed/produced x movie. Perhaps you could find articles talking about his life in general or his filming style.

He has been involved in a lot of films and won a decent amount of awards, so I think you can find more in-depth sources about Davis. I don't think Davis passes the bar of WP:NCREATIVE yet, but I am not familiar with Ghanaian film industry.

Also, is the term entrepreneur appropriate? None of the sources say he is one, and he does not run any businesses.

All in all, good luck and feel free to ask questions.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Ca ^{talk to me!} 15:20, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Ca thank you for your feedback. I will agree that most of the sources used may qualify as passing mentions. However, like I have observed when writing for the people behind the scenes, it is difficult to find secondary sources that goes into the depth when it comes to the person unless they win an individual award. There is a lot of coverage however of the work they have done and the achievements those works have gone on to chalk. And this was my approach to the article. I wrote the article to focus on his work and the impact of that work and left room for his personal life when I find it.

I also realised that a huge aspect of his filmography already have Wikipedia articles which i believe is a good thing and should help his case.

Davies' work in Ghana was mostly as a music video director so again in my writing, i focused on his work which was highly impactful.

The only reference i found that went in depth about his personal life was an interview found on YouTube and i don't know if that qualifies as a secondary source. Heatrave (talk) 18:46, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Youknowwhoistheman was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)

Your contributed article, Nsoatreman FC

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Nsoatreman FC. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – Nsoatreman F.C.. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Nsoatreman F.C.. If you have new information to add, you might want to discuss it at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Telfordbuck (talk) 12:33, 4 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces I agree that the sources are not helpful, but his impact in his local community cannot be underplayed.

Heatrave (talk) 12:53, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is not the point. There are countless African philanthropist, I’m probably one of them. But we’re looking are sources that do not give these subjects WP:ROUTINE about their philanthropic works but coverages that delve into them as a person, not promotional of course. This is what the point is and the sources currently are not from this perspective. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:55, 18 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Stop Galamsey Now Protest

The article Stop Galamsey Now Protest has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Lack of notability

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 02:59, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Revirvlkodlaku the protest is ongoing with some arrests and is a very notable event happening in Ghana right now. It is still unfolding so there has to be some fact checking and time to continue the article but it is notable. Unless there's another notability yardstick I am unaware of.

You also haven't given any reason why you think it's not notable Heatrave (talk) 03:09, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Heatrave, the article says the protest ended on the 23rd, so as far as I can tell, it's a three-day protest where nothing of note seems to have happened. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 03:12, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Revirvlkodlaku There have been several arrests and cases of police brutality that have been ongoing yesterday and Tuesday. You don't have all the details so it's a bit premature to propose it for deletion because you think it's a 3 day event and so it has ended. That's not how protests work. Heatrave (talk) 03:16, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Heatrave, my prod is based on the content of the article. I don't "think" it's a 3-day event—the page says so. If you have an issue with this, please take it up on the appropriate talk page. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 03:28, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Revirvlkodlaku I don't have any issues. All I'm saying is that the delete proposal is premature. We need events to unfold and be duly verified before we proceed to update. Heatrave (talk) 03:31, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
