Speedy deletion under A7

I have created a page hours ago about a terrorist who has become active recently after 10 years. Therefore I created a page giving citation from three independent and famous news websites in our country. He has become active in the social media and asking for violence to his followers passively. So I felt there should be a page under his name so that people who don't know him should know his past.

I wrote nothing negative. Just wrote some neutral sentences with citing news articles, and thought of adding some more after sleep.

The page was deleted due to a speedy deletion under A7 tag. I was asleep so I couldn't challenge it. By visiting his talk page, it seemed to me that the person who placed the tag has a record of removing contents that lead to Islamic State.

My first contribution blocked

I added quotes from Kristen Clarke, Head of the USDOJ Civil Rights Division, to her page. The quotes were double sourced. Why was my contribution blocked? UndergroundVeritas (talk) 21:59, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

@UndergroundVeritas: was this you? If so, the quote was removed because we don't publish novel analysis, such as giving your personal opinion of a person's political views based only on something they said on Twitter. Content on Wikipedia is required to adhere to a neutral point of view, which is almost always incompatible with "setting the record straight". We cannot publish our own personal conclusions, we can only repeat conclusions made by independent reliable sources, and only in a way which reflects a balanced view of the subject. If you have such a source you could discuss including it on the article's talk page. If you were talking about something else, you'll have to be more specific.

RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

• Proposals 2 and 9b (phase II discussion): Add a reminder of civility norms at RfA and Require links for claims of specific policy violations
• Proposal 3b (in trial): Make the first two days discussion-only
• Proposal 13 (in trial): Admin elections
• Proposal 14 (implemented): Suffrage requirements
• Proposals 16 and 16c (phase II discussion): Allow the community to initiate recall RfAs and Community recall process based on dewiki
• Proposal 17 (phase II discussion): Have named Admins/crats to monitor infractions
• Proposal 24 (phase II discussion): Provide better mentoring for becoming an admin and the RfA process
• Proposal 25 (implemented): Require nominees to be extended confirmed

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)
