Magen David Adom

Hi David,

I reverted your edits for a number of reasons: One passage engaged in original research (in reality it appeared only a means of enabling Israeli membership), others contradicted themselves (the controversy over the admission to the ICRC of the Magen David Adom was resolved when the ICRC allowed the use of a Jewish symbol (as opposed to a Christian or Islamic) and with the Red Crystal symbol adopted (in place of the controversial Jewish symbol), and other edits didn't appear particularly encyclopedic (despite the unacceptable use of a Jewish symbol,). If you have any questions, feel free to discuss them with me or anyone else. Don't worry about being reverted, these criticisms simply make us all better editors. Cheers, Tewfik^Talk 20:14, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

FYI

Based on some of your latest edits I just wanted to let you know that some of your recent edits are a bit redundant. If someone has the category "People from Nashville" on their page, their is no reason to add "People from Tennessee" to the page. One is a subcategory of the other. Just be cautious of which caegories you adding to articles. Cheers--Looper5920 16:01, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

Mecosta

Someone nominated Mecosta for deletion. I don't know enough about him to expand the article, but I want to see more articles about chiefs and treaty signatories, not fewer. If you can expand it, please do. Thanks Leo1410 02:32, 19 February 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Michael G. Morris

A tag has been placed on Michael G. Morris requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. ╟─TreasuryTag►contribs─╢ 16:23, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Did you forget to add a license tag for this image when uploading.?

Wikipedia takes copyrights seriously, so images need to have an appropriate license tag

File copyright problem with File:Romalea guttata Eastern lubber grasshopper, adult phase, Vacherie, Louisiana.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:Romalea guttata Eastern lubber grasshopper, adult phase, Vacherie, Louisiana.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the file. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 00:44, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

YOBI.tv

I've moved the deleted article to your userspace at User:David A. Victor/YOBI.tv. Basically, the whole thing reads like an ad, starting from the first sentence - "YOBI.tv is the contest network" (not "a contest network"). There is no third-party discussion of the channel or why it's notable, just breathless descriptions of its programming. The detailed descriptions of every thousand-dollar prize won is promotional, too. Please try and rewrite it so that it sounds neutral and not like a PR brochure. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 21:42, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

• The exhaustive list of prizewinners still seems awfully promotional. More importantly, Wikipedia notability does not come from the subject's being new or innovative. It comes from recognition in reliable, independent sources. The sources cited in your article are all either yobitv itself or PR releases on PRweb.com. None of those are independent. See WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 02:48, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. Let me delete the prize winners, although I had thought that the problem had been about the amounts given.

I really would like to ask your help in putting this into a usable format. I appreciate your willingness to help me. As you can see from most of my other entries, this is not my usual subject matter (this is a far cry from my last entry of "Hungerford's crawling water beetle") but I do think that Yobi.tv is important enough to continue trying.

If I have understood you correctly, you have raised three concerns: 1) inadequate objectivity to the references, 2) noteworthiness and 3) overtly promotional material. I am afraid that my lack of experience here is a handicap. Could I ask you advice on correcting these issues.

First, regarding objectivity of sources, I simply retained the original sources in the article. I was not even sure whether many of the items cited even neeeded references since this is meant primarily to describe the site. I did add information on the Wisdom of Crowds (which I linked to its own Wikipedia page) and to the .tv Wikipedia page to add other sources. Since this is, however, primarily a descriptive piece regarding the website, I thought referring primarily to the website would be justified. I thought that this was acceptable from the various Wikipedia articles on somewhat similar models at which I looked to determine the nature of references in such a situation. The five Wikipedia I used as references for my own references were:

NyooTV (please see, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NyooTV) Mefeedia.com (please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mefeedia.com) icebox.com (please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Icebox.com) Funny or Die (please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funny_or_Die ) Fun Trivia (please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FunTrivia )

In all five of these, most of their references were similarly from the web site itself or from pieces directly linked to PR pieces. That said, I have references I can add from news coverage on EOnline, People.com, etc. as well as radio and TV interviews, etc. I see that these are the other main sources on similar Wikipedia articles. Would those be acceptable?

Regarding definition of notability, I am a bit uncertain as to how to define this for Wikipedia since by your definition (barring new or, especially, innovative as determining factors) quite a lot of articles fall into that category. In my own view, innovations are themselves noteworthy; when those innovations lead to a worldwide following, it seems noteworthy. Perhaps the concern is that Yobi.tv is a commercial venture? If so, it is true that Yobi.tv is a commercial venture, but then again so are hundreds of other commerical ventures with Wikipedia pages.

If you could help me identify what the offending material in your view is, I would be able to correct the article. I had thought that the removal of what you had called the article's "detailed descriptions of every thousand-dollar prize won" was the promotional offense. The names point to the worldwide nature of the winners, something notable in its exception to other talent contests (such as the Idol or "Got Talent" or XFactor series). This speaks to what Cavusgil calls the "born global" Internet enterprise, something not seen before for talent contents. To me, this is in and of itself noteworthy. Here I speak as a professor with expertise in the subject rather than just a fan of, say, water beetles or the poetry of Vachel Lindsay as some of my other articles have been. In fact, I had been thinking of writing up a Wikipedia piece on the "born global concept" but on the whole I intentionally try to write Wikipedia articles on non-academic subjects (it is more fun for me).

I look forward to your feedback, and really hope that I can put this article into a form that you will not only allow but that you would personally think of as being worthwhile.

Thank you. DV David A. Victor (talk) 19:58, 15 April 2011 (UTC)

Nomination of Robert J. Myers for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Robert J. Myers is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Robert J. Myers until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Pburka (talk) 17:40, 18 September 2011 (UTC)

Signing messages on talk pages

Hi David, while doing some talk page maintenance, I noticed a comment that you added to the talk page about Swahili in December 2008. You added that comment above the archive box, which is a completely non-standard location for comments; they should be placed at the end of a page. It seems from your recent edits to talk pages that you still haven't gotten the hang of signing messages. You should sign every comment you make with four tildes like this: ("~~~~"), which will produce an automatic link to your user and talk pages with a timestamp in the correct format. Also, spelling errors should not be corrected on talk pages, as you did at Talk:Foreign relations of Tuvalu. See the talk page guidelines.

If you have any further questions about Wikipedia, feel free to ask me. You can also use Wikipedia's help desk. Graham87 12:29, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

I notice that you've figured out how to sign messages]. Graham87 12:34, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of John Malcolm Brinnin

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 John Malcolm Brinnin 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://omss-poem.blogspot.com/2011_09_13_archive.html. 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. Signed,The4lines |||| ^{(You Asked?)

I posted this article in 2004. The supposed plagiarized piece was published in 2011. This supports that my Wikipedia post predates by seven years the piece cited. David A. Victor (talk) 20:48, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Hannie Rouweler

The article Hannie Rouweler has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non notable writer. Currently unsourced and the only source that has ever existed on the page is a personal website. WP:BEFORE shows no reliable independent sources

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.

A bilateral article about Vanuatu is currently listed for deletion

Hello Dr. Victor,

I saw in WP:BILATERAL that you were in the past interested in Vanuatu bilateral relations, so I just wanted to let you know that the article Spain-Vanuatu_relations is currently being discussed for deletion here. Maybe you have access to some coverage from academia or the media that justifies that those relations are notable, or maybe they just aren't. Just wanted to let you know, and I know you original posted in WP:BILATERAL in 2009, so it's been a long time and you may not be interested anymore - if this were the case, I apologize for bothering you.
