Unreferenced BLPs edit

  Hello Sushilover2000! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 951 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

Office Hours edit

Hey Sushilover2000! I'm just dropping you a message because you've commented on (or expressed an interest in) the Article Feedback Tool in the past. If you don't have any interest in it any more, ignore the rest of this message :).

If you do still have an interest or an opinion, good or bad, we're holding an office hours session tomorrow at 19:00 GMT/UTC in #wikimedia-office to discuss completely changing the system. In attendance will be myself, Howie Fung and Fabrice Florin. All perspectives, opinions and comments are welcome :).

I appreciate that not everyone can make it to that session - it's in work hours for most of North and South America, for example - so if you're interested in having another session at a more America-friendly time of day, leave me a message on my talkpage. I hope to see you there :). Regards, Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 14:33, 26 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Sorry not to see you at the session; the logs are here. In the meantime, the Foundation has started developing a new version of the tool which dispenses with the idea of "ratings", amongst other things. Take a look at WP:AFT5 and drop any comments, criticisms or suggestions you have on the talkpage - I'd be very grateful to hear your opinions. Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 21:31, 28 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Eugene N. Kozloff edit

 

The article Eugene N. Kozloff has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Ed Ricketts edit

I'm assuming that "Coan & Valentich-Scott, 2010" refers to a source supporting the species you added.[1] However, since you can see that we have citations and references in use, it would help if you would add a full citation or note it on the talk page for someone else to add as a reference. Thanks. Viriditas (talk) 06:37, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Nope. The name(s) of the taxonomist and date are actually part of the species name, and they are not citations themselves. All the other species on the page should have names/dates, too. I'll get around to adding those sometime. Sushilover2000 (talk) 14:30, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
I think you misunderstood me. First, what source did you use to cite the species? All of the species in this list prior to your edit are sourced to the ref in the first sentence (Tamm 2005). Second, the list does not need or require the binomial name followed by the authority. On Wikipedia, we don't add "information about taxonomic authors to scientific names except where especially important." Third, the binomial authority is a source, so the full citation to Coan & Valentich-Scott 2010, is what I'm asking for because "scientific names like other facts, must be verifiable with reliable sources."

Disambiguation link notification for July 10 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Malcolm Clarke (zoologist), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page National Institute of Oceanography (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

July 2013 edit

  Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Fuck You (Lily Allen song) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • article&id=12705:el-ifuck-you-de-lanata&catid=46:el-pais&Itemid=71 El “¡Fuck You!” de Lanata] {es}}</ref>

Medusozoa edit

Thank you for your contribution. It would be good to quote a reference supporting your claim. Even if you were right you should have rather proposed to remove the redirect or to correct the redirect. Blanking is controversial.Xx236 (talk) 06:58, 20 August 2015 (UTC) According to Jellyfish they are Medusozoa, so maybe you present your sources here Talk:Jellyfish.Xx236 (talk) 07:16, 20 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Nikumaroro edit

Please read WP:ENGVAR and WP:RETAIN. When you are finished, perhaps think about how you could have avoided wasting both of our time by simply fixing the two measurements rather than simply reverting. Parsecboy (talk) 20:57, 28 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

Help..? edit

I've noticed that you've been active in the ongoing disputes surrounding Cristina Fernández de Kirchner, and that you as well have noticed the CFK-related articles' undisputable bias and anti-Kirchner POV. I have personally spent the past few weeks arguing with the user Cambalachero, and it is quite frankly exhausting – both him and Jetstreamer are POV pusher fanatics. I have attempted to apply for third opinions and peer reviews, but it generally doesn't get much response; the only third party user that has intervened, agreed that the article was non-neutral, though. I feel like the only way to clean up the articles would be to bring as much attention to them as possible, from as many users as possible. So, do you have any other suggestions as to how to solve this and establish the articles as properly NPOV? There must be something we can do to get mod attention?!

I might post this to some other users as well.

Thank you for any and all help, Μαρκος Δ (talk) 16:27, 5 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

GA review of Cristina Fernández de Kirchner edit

Hi, Sushilover2000. I have deleted the good article review you started for the Cristina Fernández de Kirchner article. As a previous contributor to the article and its talk page, it is not appropriate for you to lead the GA review of the article. An uninvolved editor should take that role. You are welcome to comment on the review once an uninvolved editor starts it. Please let me know if you have any questions about the GA process. --RL0919 (talk) 03:52, 4 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

List of marine biologists edit

You reverted my clean up of the talk page for this article and said you are "not sure why epipelagic deleted all the content". Well of course you need only examine the page histories to see why. But if you prefer encouraging the troll, then I won't intervene so you can indulge your hobby in peace :) --Epipelagic (talk) 07:58, 16 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Please follow up with your championing of the trolls on this page. Help is needed now to deal with their renewed efforts, much revived after you legitimised them. It's not right to abandon problems like this, and leave other editors trying to clean up the fallout when you were the instigator. --Epipelagic (talk) 03:57, 9 March 2017 (UTC)Reply
Hi Epipelagic. I've looked over List of marine biologists and its talk page. I don't understand your messages. How does erasing the history of trolling as you did prevent trolls? Quite the contrary. It appears as if you are trying to cover up the problem. Could you clarify your intent? Thanks, Sushilover2000 (talk) 19:40, 22 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of File:KelpGullNest.JPG edit

 

A tag has been placed on File:KelpGullNest.JPG requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file licensed as "for non-commercial use only", "no derivative use", "for Wikipedia use only", or "used with permission"; and it has not been shown to comply with the limited standards for the use of non-free content. If you agree with the deletion, there is no need to do anything. If, however, you believe that this image may be retained on Wikipedia under one of the permitted conditions then:

  • state clearly the source of the image. If it has been copied from elsewhere on the web you should provide links to: the image itself, the page which uses it and the page which contains the license conditions.
  • add the relevant copyright tag and if necessary, a complete fair use rationale.

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.
