Your answer to my question in The Teahouse.
It's not really any excerpt in particular. Just that the whole thing seems to have a slightly Liberal lean in wording. Chewie1138 (talk) 23:59, 1 March 2021 (UTC)
My articles
Hello! I see that you are concerned with the articles I have been creating. As for the D3 games, I agree that most aren't overly notable, with the exceptions of Vitamin (which there is a lot more information I could add to), Last Escort, and possibly the Forbidden Romance series. I was creating them because I noticed the mass amount of redlinked otome titles on D3 Publisher - I haven't even played these games myself, but I enjoyed collecting the data. If you can think of a better way to organize these, please let me know - perhaps a list of D3 Publisher's otome games, where the info could be collected in a table or something but without separate articles? As for Roland (Japanese host), I started that article as a translation from the Japanese article - the blood type came from there and must not have been sourced there. I added it back as I found a reliable news source for it. I have already removed a lot of fancruft from the Roland article (such as favorite foods, liking Love Live!, and a preference for cordless electronics), but there's more I question the need for - though the subject is definitely notable. Thank you for trying to clean up! Londonbeat41692 (talk) 05:26, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Help
Hello ,Thetechnician27 will you please help me to review my article? Please reply sir/madam — Preceding unsigned comment added by TrueStarTruck (talk • contribs) 08:46, 21 March 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, TrueStarTruck. Unfortunately, I'm not an AfC reviewer, so I can't take any action in reviewing either of your drafts, though upon looking at Draft:MD Salman, it seems that KylieTastic has quite reasonably declined it on the grounds of the draft not establishing the subject's notability. Likewise, I looked at Draft:BINOD THARU, and I'm quite confused, insofar as its contents seem to have been taken directly from the article Binod (meme). Perhaps even more confusingly, this meme seems to have spilled over into your draft for MD Salman. In any case, Kylie may be able to look at Draft:BINOD THARU and review it, as they're quite an experienced editor. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 09:11, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

re History of the Jews in Hull HI I am becoming quickly demoralised about my experience on wikipedia, that the hundreds of hours of work I have put in have led to a messed up article that I an going to have to abandon. I am particularly concerned by the not so subtle intimidation by some guy called rockandrollmancer or some such.I would be grateful if you could review the position and advise.

== request for further help ==
Dear TheTechnician27 re History of the Jews of Hull Thank you for involving Graeme Bartlett. This has provided with some breathing space.. your response was very helpful and effective. I have added many references, and edited down some of the worst areas of text, and plan to continue. I hope you can see the progress. It is difficult/impossible during the pandemic to check my original sources, some of which are currently inaccessible in archives 200 miles. Meanwhile someone called " rocknrollmancer " continue to intimidate me, deliberately making mostly unhelpful changes with spurious justifications (one was a good addition), picking rather cleverly on sensitive topics, deliberately trying to provoke. When I removed the one most unjustified of these changes he stuck up something about "WP ownership" and sent a message about some edit to British Airways that I don't really understand. Looking at his talk page (if that is the right term) I see that he is often involved in "edit wars" and in his own words "there are now repeated accusations against me of bite, team tagging, racism, sexism and hate". It also looks to me as if he edits the pages of left wing MPs and gets in dispute with left wingers, and this spills out onto twitter. Anyway it is as if a piece about an old dying Jewish community is just irresistible for him to play his rather sadistic game. At present it seems best to ignore him, as he is really not interested in the topic just in a fight. Please help and advise. I will now try to sign this entry Philip Sugarman Philip Sugarman (talk) 15:04, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
Cesar Jimenez
Hi Mr Technician!
Thank you for your offer of assistance.
The politician's name is:
Hon. Jimenez, Cesar Jr. "Jawo" He has no wiki page.
He is a sitting congressman in the Philippines House of Representatives (wiki reference: Philippine House of Representatives )
I would like to use the template https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_officeholder/example#General_office
I am an ex-journalist and copyeditor, i just need assistance setting up the templates etc.
Any suggestions on other templates I'll need etc would be greatly appreciated. I'm a complete wikiNoob.
Jackson Friedman (talk) 10:02, 27 March 2021 (UTC)Jackson Friedman
- Hi again, Jackson! I looked into Cesar Jimenez Jr., and I couldn't find any significant coverage from reliable, independent sources (e.g. news, books, etc.). However, Representative Jimenez, as you said, is a member of the Philippines House of Representatives – an elected, national political position, which does give him presumed notability under our notability criteria for elected officials. I was wondering if you know of any sources which discuss him in significant detail, as this would help establish notability – which each article's subject has to meet in order to merit its own article on Wikipedia – and it would help in starting an article. These can be in any language, such as English, Filipino, Chavacano, etc., but the important thing is that they be considered reliable, be independent of Jimenez himself, and give him more coverage than simply a passing mention. If sources like this can't be found or if just one or two are found, I'll reach out to an editor more experienced than I am – MarkH21, who frequently deals with East Asian subjects – and see if they think Representative Jimenez passes inclusion criteria.
- PS: no worries on being a wikiNoob! It's really easy to get lost in Wikipedia's inner workings – sometimes even for experienced editors – but it's all really intuitive once you've spent a while editing.TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 11:24, 27 March 2021 (UTC)
Speedy Deletion Elemental 4
I believe speedy deletion isn’t needed because there is a big community in Elemental 4 about 150 elements per day, which require votes to be added, so there is a big community of suggesting and voting!
Also, the thing is deleted and I have a backup can I remake the page, if my reason is valid. WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 19:08, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, WikiMakersOfOurTime. An article that has been speedily deleted can be recreated. The article was deleted for WP:A7, which means it lacked what's called a "CCOS", or credible claim of significance. The original article did not have one, which is why I nominated it for speedy deletion, and Izno deleted it on those grounds.
- However, while a credible claim of significance would save the article from being deleted immediately, the article would quickly be nominated to Articles for Deletion, or "AfD", where editors debate whether or not an article should be kept based on Wikipedia's inclusion criteria. Often these discussions are hotly contested, but sometimes, the "support for a proposal is so overwhelming or so obvious that there isn't a snowball's chance in hell that it could fail", which is known as an avalanche. Realistically, I don't believe this article's subject could possibly survive an AfD discussion, as it doesn't meet the general notability criteria or the criteria for web content notability. Because of this, it doesn't matter how well-written the article is – it wouldn't matter if I rounded up the 1000 best editors on the project and had them collectively write an article on the game; it would still be deleted on the grounds of notability. Creating an article is one of the most difficult tasks for a new editor, and a huge part of that is determining in the first place what subjects pass these notability guidelines. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 19:33, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- Well I say it’s notable enough how do I get it to the AFD? WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 22:34, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- @WikiMakersOfOurTime:: If you would like to recreate the article, you can go to this webpage and create it exactly as you had it – so long as you provide, within the article, a credible claim of significance (please read WP:CCOS). If you can provide this CCOS within the article, it will not be speedily deleted per A7, but please take my word that this is what will happen instead:
- Well I say it’s notable enough how do I get it to the AFD? WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 22:34, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- The article will be nominated to AfD within hours or even minutes of being published on the mainspace.
- Over the course of seven days, the article will be unambiguously be voted to be deleted, as there is no credible argument based on Wikipedia's policy or guidelines for the article to be kept. If you would like to seek out experienced users to look at the discussion, please see WP:CANVASS for what constitutes appropriate notification. AfD is ultimately based on policy and guidelines, not on majority vote, so you'll need a compelling rationale based on policy/guidelines for why the article should remain. Please see WP:N, WP:WEB, WP:RS, and WP:INDY for, respectively, what our general notability guidelines are, what our web content notability guidelines are, what constitutes a reliable source, and what constitutes an independent source. These four concepts will be critical to making any sort of compelling, discussion-swaying argument should one exist.
- In the seven day interim that the deletion discussion takes, the article will not be marked as "reviewed", meaning it will not be indexed on search engines.
- The article will now have a much more higher standard to possibly be recreated in the future, as a Delete vote at AfD ensures any attempt to recreate the article can be speedily deleted under WP:G4 so long as the issues discussed at AfD have not been obviously resolved.
- Whether or not the article is recreated and/or deleted isn't my decision to make, but this is my understanding as a fairly experienced editor of what will happen. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 22:54, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- While I do believe based on your experience it will get likely voted down, I’ll still try, there’s nothing I lose from trying. WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 22:56, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- I have a backup of the page, but I updated the page a few times and it doesn’t have if it, is there a way to get the page pre-deletion? WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 22:58, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- @WikiMakersOfOurTime: Interesting; I don't see it either, nor do I see it in your edit history. You should be able to go to this page specifically, copy-paste the original article into the text box, add a CCOS if you haven't already as discussed before, and click 'Publish page', and it should show up in the mainspace. TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 23:18, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- No i mean is there a way to get the article before you deleted the thing? WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 23:20, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
- @WikiMakersOfOurTime: Oh, sorry about that; I misunderstood. I thought you meant you already had an offline copy and just wanted to recreate it using that. @Izno:, as an administrator, would be able to view it pre-deletion and provide you – being its sole author and therefore its copyright owner (provided everything written was your own original material, the copyright is yours under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License) – with a copy of the article. Izno, your thoughts? TheTechnician27 (Talk page) 23:28, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

- @WikiMakersOfOurTime I have restored the page to Draft:Elemental 4. You will need to improve the page so that it meets our standards for notability before it will be moved to the main space, otherwise it will be deleted (at a later date). Izno (talk) 00:26, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you, I will change the page. WikiMakersOfOurTime (talk) 00:27, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
