DipanjanMADPLAYHOUSE edit

The "Mark at Alcoa" exception has never been formalized into policy; it emerged from this discussion. Basically the idea is that someone whose username makes clear that a) they're one individual and b) they have a conflict of interest with regards to one subject shouldn't be blocked for that username.

Now, I see this user has been blocked for disruptive editing, so most of this discussion is moot. But regardless of the implications of his name, we don't block him for username purposes until and unless he makes edits that follow through on those implications. "Assume good faith" means we don't block people for what we think they're going to do in that circumstance. We block them for what they actually do. So your "sooner or later" doesn't matter.

And, as we've seen, just because we decide against a username block does not in any way preclude a block for other policy violations by the same user. Daniel Case (talk) 19:06, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Robert J Shelby edit

Dear Hitro:

Please tell me how I left an "unconstructive edit" that constitutes "vandalism" at Robert J Shelby?

In the previous sentence, it says that Hatch and Lee strongly supported his nomination. A sentence illustrating this is included by Lee. I added one by Hatch. How is this vandalism and unconstructive? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Truth1seeker (talkcontribs) 21:07, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I would like to let you know that I didn't revert your edits but an automated bot did, and I have rarely seen this bot doing mistakes. However, this bot may be wrong this time, your edits aren't vandal at all. Please reinstate your edits. Regards. Hitro talk 21:21, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Hitro: I have reverted the edits. They were not vandalism. Thank you for clarifying. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Truth1seeker (talkcontribs) 21:23, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

Request from Raymond Deane concerning your persistent and unhelpful interference with his Wikipedia entry edit

Hi -

I am Raymond Deane (merriman53@gmail.com). It was NOT I who first inserted the Wikipedia article on me, but I have occasionally attempted to correct changes made to it - most of them highly malicious.

I note that you have been making changes to it of late, and that when I have corrected those changes you have undone my corrections. May I request you PLEASE not to do so? I cannot understand why you choose to delete simple biographical information.

Thanking you in advance for your cooperation -

Sincerely - Dr Raymond Deane Merriman53 (talk) 19:43, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Merriman53 again re Raymond Deane article edit

Our messages overlapped! I was under the impression that if biographical information came from the actual subject of the article, it would scarcely need any further references to prove its authenticity - perhaps this is naive of me. It does seem strange that when the subject of an article "undoes" something that is unsatisfactory this can be described as "unnecessary use of the undo function". I am also puzzled that in the past highly malicious changes were made to the article by ill-intentioned people but were left in place - yet when I attempt to make a change it is immediately undone. Clarification appreciated. Sincerely - RaymondMerriman53 (talk) 19:50, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Mr. Deane, Wikipedia tries to maintain neutrality of articles that is why autobiography is strongly discouraged unless the claims made within the article is cited properly with reliable sources. The only reason behind my reversion of your contribution was "unsourced claims" which were unverifiable. In Wikipedia, verifiability means that people reading and editing the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source. Wikipedians do try to remove vandalism as soon as it appears, specially on biographies, I am watching this page now and will try my best to restrict malicious editors to add any kind of defamatory stuffs to this article. Best Regards. Hitro talk 20:20, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Merriman53 again re Raymond Deane edit

Allodapos - who is working with me - has now undone your changes again - but this time has added a reference to the book by Patrick Zuk that contains all this biographical information. I should point out that the same information is already contained in the website and CMC sources that are referenced in the first two footnotes - this could easily have been confirmed by clicking on those footnotes. I hope this will resolve the issues. We have noted that some of the people who maliciously made earlier changes have actually been subsequently blocked by Wikipedia. This, together with your assurance that you'll keep an eye on such things, is reassuring. Thanks. Merriman53 Merriman53 (talk) 20:23, 8 January 2014 (UTC) Merriman53 (talk) 20:20, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Sources will resolve all issues. I'll try to add inline citation to this article for better verifiability. Hitro talk 20:28, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Merriman53 on resolving issues... edit

Thank you - that's a good improvement. Let's hope the messers stay away... And once again - Allodapos isn't a "vandal", but an associate of mine. Best - Raymond Merriman53 (talk) 21:31, 8 January 2014 (UTC)

Moldova/Moldovan vs Moldavia/Moldavian edit

HitroMilanese,

Current correct English name is Moldova and the adjective is of course Moldovan. "Moldavia/Moldavian" was used before 1991 in English language as it was simply transliterated from the Russian "Молдавия" (Moldavia). Before 1991 Moldova was part of Russia/Russian Empire and all provincies carried the Russian names translisterated directly into English. Moldavia/Moldavian is no longer used in English language after the adoption of Moldova/Moldovan names after 1991 (break of Soviet Union and Moldovan Independence). Here is a link for the U.S. Embassy in Moldova showing the correct name Moldova/Moldovan on all pages: http://moldova.usembassy.gov/. Here is a recent NY Times article: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/10/27/nyregion/a-restaurant-in-brooklyn-offers-the-food-and-feeling-of-moldova.html?_r=0.

Speedy deletion tag edit

Hey dear, just visit talk page of Ninham9 Gary12 you will find list of articles he/she is creating repeatedly which have no sense/no much content at all to identify notability of article. Nechlison (talk) 18:41, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

The articles created by this user are short but they are sensible, they credibly claim significance. The content of these articles are short but they definitely identify the subject, we can not tag them with "speedy no context". Please read WP:CCOS too for info about "credible claims of significance". PROD has been removed from all the articles created by "Ninham9 Gary12", and I believe it is a good move. Hitro talk 18:55, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

here are some recently created articles of user Ninham9 Gary12 , [1], [2], [3] . I don't know why this user is repeatedly creating topics to same subject without giving any reliable sources, shows no notability, and articles lack significance Nechlison (talk) 18:49, 11 January 2014 (UTC) Ok I apologize if I made mistake.

Hello, WP:BAND and WP:A7, these are the reasons for my nomination of this article for deletion. Regards. Hitro talk 20:06, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

hi again edit

he does have importance if his band has a Wikipedia page, look it up its called "5 seconds of summer", so obviously there is importance. I did nothing, please revoke your complaint — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashtonsgirl (talkcontribs) 20:08, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

My revocation is not gonna help, Wikipedia is a big place somebody else will nominate it again for deletion. Every article on Wikipedia should pass some basic guidelines of notability such as WP:GNG. Article about a singer or band should pass on WP:BAND. You can make your case on talk page. Hitro talk 20:16, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

Please don't delete the page edit

G11. Unambiguous advertising or promotion

Shortcut: WP:G11 Main page: Wikipedia:Spam

Pages that are exclusively promotional, and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic. If a subject is notable and the content can be replaced with text that complies with neutral point of view, this is preferable to deletion. Note: An article about a company or a product which describes its subject from a neutral point of view does not qualify for this criterion. "Promotion" does not necessarily mean commercial promotion: anything can be promoted, including a person, a non-commercial organisation, a point of view, etc. See WP:NOTFORPROMOTION for the policy on this.

I don't see how a site about pregnancy with no adds on it that is neutral on all view points, as per your rules as shown above can be breaking these rules. Please don't delete the page. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crazy New Life (talkcontribs) 22:34, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

I just found out about the sandbox feature, which I would have used for my page if I knew about it beforehand. I did not know that my article would be published right away. It was now deleted, and the deletion log is visible on the page with captions explaining why it was deleted. Since I made a mistake and did not know about using sandbox (and will be using sandbox from now on) can you please remove the deletion log and deletion caption from the page I was working on? Can the page go back to not existing until my sandbox draft gets approved? Thank you. Va201301 (talk) 23:51, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
