I saw that you tried to sign up and were unable to find the contributors section, so I added your name to our contributor section myself. Sorry it was unclear as to how to add your name to the contributors section, I'll look into that and see if we can't make it easier for people wanting to join us.

Welcome aboard, on behalf of all of us. Its always nice to have a new editor, and even nicer to have a contributor whose credentials match mine (I majored in history at the University of Texas at El Paso, and minored political science :) If you have any comments, questions, or observations feel free to leave them on our project talk page, or you can get in touch with me on my talk page. TomStar81 (Talk) 22:30, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for fixing this, as I wasn't sure how to do that. Glad to be a part of the project! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 00:55, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Your draft article, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Humanitas

 

Hello Ktr101. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Humanitas".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Humanitas}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save page", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 10:00, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Assistance requested

Kevin, I meant to contact you sooner and I apologize now for my delay which is resulting in such short notice: Houghton Library, Harvard, is hosting a relatively small-scale Wikipedia training session and editathon on the afternoon of Monday, October 20th. We anticipate mostly library staff and other members of that community. I was hoping to have assistance from a couple other experienced Wikipedians. Are you interested/available? --Midnightdreary (talk) 11:04, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

AKA Red John

Hey there. I got an email from Tree about a requested account I sent to OTRS. The reason I did this is that there were multiple living persons that were notable with this name. Between the list on the disambig page and my search results on Google once I filtered out all of the crap social media crap (yeah, I said crap twice), I just didn't feel comfortable with anyone with a name that had that many hits for possible notability not verifying who they were. The gov email address from an IP that was blocked multiple times for block evasion by a specific duck indicated to me that this user could be from anywhere in the country and there were a couple from the states in the list of notables. Anyways... Happy editing! — {{U|Technical 13}} (etc) 19:50, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for explaining the situation, as I only saw the name their real name when they sent me the OTRS request and not Red John. I also received the e-mail from the government e-mail, and there was no other information available besides that. I also didn't see anything on Wikipedia in terms of any notable living persons by that name. Regardless, I just assumed good faith there and created it, so sorry about any trouble that that might have caused on your end! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 20:27, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello,

I just reviewed the above. As you noted in your nomination, a shorter hook is needed. Also, you should tag the article as being the Biography of a Living Person (BLP). Once you have approval of a hook by a new editor, I believe you should be good to go.

Support for Wikimedia grant- Lowell Edit-A-Thons

Hi Kevin! Winifred Flint from Pollard Memorial Library and I are trying to run some edit-a-thons in Lowell starting in December. We have a grant in to Wikimedia and we would really appreciate it if you could check it out, make some comments, and endorse it.

Copyright checks when performing AfC reviews

Hello Ktr101. This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to you in particular.

The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when hallmarks of copyvios in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered.

If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied from the draft, rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the Wayback Machine is very useful for sussing that out.)

If you do find a copyright violation, please do not decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using {{db-g12|url=URL of source}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with {{subst:copyvio|url=URL of source}}.

Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with weasel words; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors.

I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC).

01:07:50, 21 November 2014 review of submission by Geg42


I am requesting review for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/J._Gerald_Hebert. While you are correct that Hebert is not sufficiently notable as a professor, I believe the criteria should be based on his primary occupation of attorney. I have supplemented the section on his working in bailing out jurisdictions under the Voting Rights Act. Further, I had updated the formatting with the help of users from the wikipedia help channel (Iaritmioawp and nonsenseferret).

Thanks for your consideration.

Geg42 (talk) 01:07, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

You're going to have to re-submit it so that I can take a look at it at my convenience. Additionally, I would suggest finishing up the article before doing so, as it looks like the paragraph is not complete. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 03:02, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

I added all of the data up from this page, and then subtracted the total from the number of edits, found in Template:NUMBEROFEDITS, at the time. I will run the list again in January, so let me know if you have any suggestions before then! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 01:53, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

When to resubmit MethBase wiki page

Hi there,

I received an email from HasteurBot saying that because there have been no edits for 6 months on my submitted page, MethBase, it would be deleted if it was not either resubmitted for review or edited. The main reason for rejection the first time was because we were too new a database, but we have gone from 1 to 6 citations on google scholar and have a broad userbase. Is there a particular guideline for how many third party citations are required before acceptance? I don't want to resubmit if it is not yet relevant, and another comment on the draft page suggested that we keep it in draft space until it is deemed notable enough. I modeled our page after another methylation database page, NGSmethDB, and linked to them as well.

Let me know, thank you!

Ben

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:MethBase — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benjamin decato (talkcontribs) 08:51, 29 November 2014 (UTC)

@Benjamin decato: Sorry for the delay in this, but you can resubmit it again whenever you want. There is no guideline of which to speak, but you want to have significant third-party citations if you're talking about a rather new company. I hope this helps! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 19:20, 7 December 2014 (UTC)

Would you have any suggestions?

A few months ago during the eventually unsuccessful Wikipedia:Requests_for_adminship/Piotrus_3 you voted "oppose". I wonder if you'd like to discuss any concerns of yours, or if you would have any suggestions in the event I'd decide to run again (which I am not planning to do anytime soon, but might consider in the future). I understand your concerns about canvassing, and I hope I understand that policy better now - I would be more than happy to chat about it if you'd like to query me on it now. For a better sense of my work and activities around the project, I invite you to consider reviewing my userpage, my talk page archives (which are not redacted), to watchlist my talk page, or use edit analysis tools like Wikichecker, content.paragr, dewkin, xtools-pages or xtools-ec (which in theory should work as of late 2014...).

I appreciate your thanks for my edit about submarines built by Fore River Shipyard. It was a surprise when I looked down from my paragraph to see the subject had already been addressed! Who would have thought that USS C-1 (SS-9) was launched a bit earlier than USS B-1 (SS-10)? I also looked up the story of the Japanese and Russian Holland-type submarines that Fore River was involved with, and added to the material on these.RobDuch (talk) 00:05, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

revised (now properly cited) article for JERRY MASTERS

Hi Kevin,

I hope this message finds you doing well in the New Year. I recently submitted an article about a musician and recording engineer named Jerry Masters. You were kind enough to initially review the article for submission. It was declined on basis of not proper/not enough citation basis. I have worked hard to add the adequate number of references from various credible sources along with historic photography. There are now 9 cited sources pertaining to each paragraph.

I am a journalist and music business historian based in Alabama and some of my work covers the rich history of recording music arts and heritage in the South and this state in particular. Im a greenhorn novice as regards Wikipedia, so I appreciate your letting me know about the deficiency in citations being an issue. I was a bit lazy in dealing with a historical personage and sometimes I have to admit I get "tunnel vision" in writing about music and take for granted/assume that everyone has already heard of many of the people I write about. hahah. Sorry about that.

At any rate, I have got some solid citational references in there now, so at your convenience if you could let me know if all things look up to speed now for a re-submission, I'd greatly appreciate it. The newly edited/updated draft is saved in my sandbox for review.

I know you guys are busy, and I appreciate your volunteer work as a contributing editor to the Wikipedia cause. It's exciting to join the family. I hope that over time, I'll get more used to the process on submission.

best,

Request on 17:22:59, 10 January 2015 for assistance on AfC submission by 75.141.236.112


Kevin, thank you for your review of Kent Philpott.

I respectfully disagree with your determination and I offer the following additional explanation in argument for this.

On myself, which is not part of the page. I was an atheist, and had no knowledge that the Jesus people Movement existed, let alone what an awakening was. I thought Billy Graham was misguided at best, having heard him once at a rally in South Africa. I am today one of the authorities on Operation Savannah - in particular the battle of Luso. Angola 1975/76 - a CIA operation to stop the advance of communism.

http://operationsavannah.com/preface

I publish web sites on various social issues, like energy efficiency - http://open4energy.com - and write on the use of chemicals in the dental industry. If you google the term "bischoff chemical dental" - you will see an article I wrote for the #1 publication to the dental industry.

After 25 years as an alcoholic, I was helped to get sober, and on 10th October 2001 accepted Jesus. Today I am a student of PTSD and alcoholism, in particular how AA and a spiritual awakening has changed the face of alcoholism. It was in researching the history of "awakenings" that I discovered the spiritual and historical importance of the Jesus People Movement" - It is my generation that are recognizing how drugs and alcohol, which were the medication for PTSD and the Emotional Injuries of the Vietnam war. Sadky, we are repeating teh same mistake, as we see 10 young people commit suicide every day as a result of trauma this past 10 years and the gulf war.

This wiki page, is much more to me that a history on Philpott. It is how we expose our younger generation to the past, and to not make the same mistakes.

Before I start adding more information (there are 100's of references that could be added) (I wanted to begin with quality and not quantity) here is why I believe that the Movement is an important event (it is referenced on Wiki) - Philpott meets the definition for a person of "note" - and the citations meet the standard for independent authority.

I will of course add more information, and as many more citations as you require. Although, looking at pages on other people of note. I have found the to be less complete, for a more minor event, for a person with a more minor role, and citation of more minor authority than a PHD study by the authority on the subject.

Eskridge published the book God's Family Forever. The appendix to the book is the reference material for his doctoral thesis on the movement. He is now the accepted authority on the Jesus people Movement. He is on staff at Wheaton College, has been since 1988.

He affirms the importance I attribute to the movement.

i) "was one of the most important American religious movements of the second half of the 20th century." ii) "is one of the formative powers that shaped American youth in the late 1960's and 1970's." iii) "Calvary Chapel (Chuck Smith) and the Vineyard churches trace their roots to the Jesus People Movement"

He states that Philpott as the person who introduced Christianity (what grew into the movement) to San Francisco. (citation made)

He further accredits Philpott as the person who preached the Gospel to Hoyt. Literally saved from the fire in the temple. Hoyt is in the late stages of releasing his book. I have interviewed Hoyt, who after being born again, together with Philpott went on to establish the communities that saved 1000's of young people from the drug culture and abuse that was taking place.

Hoyt, was drawn away, to be a founder of the "Children of God (http://www.vice.com/read/the-bizarre-and-terrifying-propaganda-art-of-the-children-of-god-666) - lost his family, and almost his life before seeing his error, and rebuilding his life.

Hoyt could be seen as #2 of the movement. I am planning to develop a page for him also when his book is released.

The citation I have placed to Eskridge is the most authoritative that can exist.

Eskridge wrote the forward to Philpott's memoir - Memoirs of a Jesus Freak - saying "Memoirs of a Jesus Freak is an important, first hand, reminiscence about those pivotal early days... helpful to scholars, pastors and lay people as they reflect on the past.

I offer that that the material in Philpott's memoir, although written by him, can be considered authoritative by the introduction from the subject authority.

The memoir includes photographs, accounts of the music, the preaching, the leaders, the communities and the cults that developed later.

I hope that you will reconsider, or let me know what additional information you require.

Alex

Mary Ann Rhodes (supercentenarian)

Hi Ktr101, I just wanted to let you know that I speedily deleted an article that you recently moved out of AfC, Mary Ann Rhodes (supercentenarian) by criteria G4, as Rhodes was deemed insufficiently notable for Wikipedia by consensus and a deletion debate and the new article did not address the concerns that were raised in the discussion. Wikipedia has had a lot of difficulty with longevity-related articles in the past that culminated in an Arbcom case, and there are still issues from time to time regarding such articles' adherence to Wikipedia's policies. In any case, I just wanted to leave a quick message, since I'm not in the habit of deleting things without some explanation. 00:51, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

No problem, as I was completely unaware of that case until now and will remember it in the future when I am reviewing articles such as that! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 02:48, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Miss India USA

 

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 Miss India USA requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://missindiaflorida.weebly.com/uploads/2/7/8/8/27880907/miss_india_florida_2014_sponsorship_packet.pdf. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites 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 modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines 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 "Click here to 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 removed 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.

Hi there! I'm a Wikipedian who's been editing for about two years now. I was looking back at the very first edits I made, and I noticed that you happened to review my very first article at AfC.

Aero & Tech Nexth

Hello Ktr101 I see that you are dealing with issues involved with Aero & Tech Nexth, I appreciate you cant discuss your dealing but the person claiming to be the aircraft designer keeps removing cited material and adding marketing and unreferenced material. Its probably getting near the point where the article needs to be protected against these edits by somebody with clear conflict of interest. Some of the recent press clippings added by the user have not supported the claims made. It must be a simple thing for the owner/designer to update the company website or press releases and provide reliable references that can be verified. If they think anything is factual wrong but cited then it should be easy to bring them up on the article talk page or remove any unreferenced facts. It is in all are interests to get the best information and source we can find but patience gets a bit thin when we are at the point of disruptive editing. Thanks. MilborneOne (talk) 19:11, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

@MilborneOne: I have actually gone ahead and responded to them right now, so I will let you know once they get back to me. I did send them a note that stated that they need to abide by the neutral point of view, so lets hope this fixes it. If not, I am fully-supportive of reverting the page back to what it was before they started. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 19:18, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

As I'm going to move it soon, I just decided to create the conflicts now and move it soon to fix them, since I don't want to have a bunch of double redirects occurring during the day in its main timezone. At this point, all I need to do is move and format the main page, which will happen soon. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 04:24, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Stockton

I hope you didn't go and revert everything that you have changed in regards to the Stockton University, as that was not my intent. As I mentioned on the college talk page, it is much appreciated and makes since to do so. It was just the main article that I didn't think needed changed, but decided that it makes more since after I heard your thoughts on it. I also said that because I don't know much about categories, that was on thing I was glad you did! I did revert my edit on the main article, which you can revert if you think otherwise. Have a good day. Corkythehornetfan | Chat? 05:30, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

Hey Corkythehornetfan, I actually went right to be after that, but I wanted to make sure that didn't happen so I left a note there saying just that. I'll be sure to monitor their communications pages tonight to see when they rename, although I won't object if you move it first. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 21:29, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
Okay... the university has already updated the website so the page can be moved. I'll update the logos, as well. What else needs updated? Corkythehornetfan | Chat? 22:32, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
I moved the logos last night, but I think the only thing that needs fixing is the double redirects, and making sure that no other pages are going to have issues in terms of grammar. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 22:34, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
Sounds good. Bots should fix the double redirects, right? I'll look to see what other pages link to RSCofNJ. Corkythehornetfan | Chat? 22:51, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
They can, or you can just go through and revert my edits from last night, and set it so that there are no double redirects going on. In terms of the other pages, you might be able to set up AutoWikiBrowser to have another run if you have access to that, as that is how I made the majority of my edits during the first run. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 22:53, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
I don't have access to the AWB and by looking at the page, I don't think it works with Safari... Thanks for the suggestion, though!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Walkendorff declined

Dear Ktr101,

I am just starting out as a contributor on Wikipedia, so please bear with me. You recently declined the page at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Walkendorff. I am in fact attempting to translate the existing article about this family on the Swedish Wikipedia article, available at https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walkendorff.

I realise now that perhaps I should have created a stub article and then tag it with a translation template, as outlined here? The content and references used would be taken from the original Swedish page.

I would be much grateful for any advice. Perpetual Tourist (talk) 22:07, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

Waterparks draft

Is there anything public you can point me at with respect to the "paid editing debacle" you mention here? And will you be offended if the G13 tag and your decline remain deleted when I history merge this draft with the other one and the version in mainspace? (They're the only two interleaved edits.) —Cryptic 01:00, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

Essentially, one company created the draft, another editor who impersonated one an administrator offered to create the article, and then charged the company to build the same article using the draft. I don't know if they went through with it, but I am going to assume that the editor (who also sent information to another company), is a paid editor and a checkuser should eventually be run for the user. Go ahead and merge them though, as I will not object. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 01:30, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

No problem, as I actually started to write it as a fact, and then started to find the hoax part and decided to fully flesh-out the text, to make it more substantial. Let me know when you start the process as well, as I found a good amount of text online and really only skimmed it when writing the article. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 23:09, 1 March 2015 (UTC)

Rv of move during an open WP:RM

I have reverted you move of the article Aston Science Park to Birmingham Science Park Aston because there is an open RM on the talk page see talk:Aston Science Park#Requested move 13 April 2015. The appropriate thing to do is express you support for a move there, with the alternative title to which you moved the article, if you think that appropriate. -- PBS (talk) 16:36, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

  • @PBS: I only moved it due to a requested move from an OTRS ticket. Having never encountered anyone contesting a move before, I went ahead and moved it, so I have no problem if there is a discussion and you want to do it that way. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 00:52, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
No worries. I did not even know that there was such a mechanism for requesting moves, as they normally go through WP:RM either as an uncontested or contested move. In point of fact as there is no other science park in Birmingham there seems little point appending Aston to the article title if the name is to be changed.-- PBS (talk) 01:01, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Talk:John B. Tsu/Temp

Hello, just so you know, this was not the right way to resolve a page that has been blanked for copyright investigation. The author was re-writing it on the Temp page of course, but once done the temp page must be histmerged into the main article, not copy/pasted in with the Temp page blanked-redirected. Copy/pasting it as was done here loses all the attribution for the editing that the author had done on the temp page (required by our license), and that edit has now been attributed to you. I'll see about fixing the history. Thanks, CrowCaw 20:58, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

My apologies, as I was under the impression that as long as the same person wrote the page, there would be no issues copying and pasting it. Thanks for fixing the issue though, as it is greatly appreciated. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 21:44, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Your contributed article, 2015 Frankford, Philadelphia train derailment

 

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.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, 2015 Frankford, Philadelphia train derailment. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page – May 2015 Amtrak derailment. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at May 2015 Amtrak derailment – you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to 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 removed 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. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 04:06, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Thanks, as I certainly need it! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 13:10, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

Just so you know ...

The reason the month was used in the title of what you have now moved to 2013 Spuyten Duyvil derailment was that, as noted on the talk page, there had been another derailment, of a freight train, near the same site earlier that year. So there hadn't been "only one". This is why, before you get the idea to be bold and change something that doesn't appear to make sense, you should look around and see if there wasn't some good reason for it in the first place.

Now, of course, we had left the article title that way because we thought we might create July 2013 Spuyten Duyvil derailment eventually. But almost a year and a half later, we still haven't, so in that respect I don't blame you because it was on us to create the other article and we never did. So I shall do so in the near future, and then restore the other article's original title. Daniel Case (talk) 14:45, 22 May 2015 (UTC)

Белорусская лесная компания & Раф-кофе Comment

Hi Ktr101,

With regard to the above articles, I have reverted your edit because a foreign article does not meet the criteria for speedy deletion (see WP:A2). Usually these articles requires the tag {{Not English}} to see if anyone would be interested to translate the particular article. These articles would only be deleted after 2 weeks and even so requires a nomination for deletion.

That being said, I have checked the respective Copyvios reports and confirmed that above articles are copied from individual websites (CSD G12). I have updated the CSD tags for the articles now.

Hope that's fine. - Andrew Y talk 13:46, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

No worries, as I figured that something was up with the articles. Thanks for catching that, and I will remember it next time! Kevin Rutherford (talk) 13:48, 26 May 2015 (UTC)

Re-reverting

I am going to revert this edit. None of these articles should exist, I simply didn't have the interest to do all the work. None of these meet GNG. Maury Markowitz (talk) 23:05, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

2015 Accra explosion

The 2015 Accra explosion killed more people (200) than the Accra Sports Stadium disaster (127), therefore it appeared incorrect to say it was the worst disaster 'since' then as it was a worse disaster.

MBTA station stubs

Hullo there! I've been thinking that this might be a good time to elevate your five userspace drafts of the MBTA's former Charlestown Elevated and Washington Street Elevated stations to full article status, what with the creation of WikiProject Greater Boston Public Transit and all.

The pages in question are:

Don't worry about them being stubs - they'll grow, and they'll do so faster in the main article space than as userspace drafts. Whoop whoop pull up Bitching Betty | Averted crashes 17:39, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

Orangemoody

Something to look at is that many of the "gnoming" accounts insert a phrase "it's class is [[insecta]]" to relevant articles. Note the grammar. Maybe someone who can run AWB might want to go through and fix those. There are also a huge number of inappropriate {{italictitle}} insertions that should probably be cleaned up, as well as bad internal linking. Risker (talk) 16:13, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

That is something that I noted as well, but I suppose I can go back in and fix them from now on, especially since many of the additions were added in over multiple edits, which makes it near impossible to individually revert them. I'll go leave a note on the AWB board though, to see if anyone wants to help out over there. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 16:55, 1 September 2015 (UTC)

List of historic Properties of Phoenix

Listen, why do you insist in adding this non existing link: Historic Old Phoenix City Hall? Create the article and then link it if you wish. Tony the Marine (talk) 06:53, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

There is no rule that says that I have to immediately create the link the second I link to the article, as I have been busy doing other things in the meantime that have more importance in my life. The site even encourages red links, to show people than an article can be created and to encourage people to do so, but I also know that this page is an exception. Regardless, I plan on creating it today. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 16:21, 10 September 2015 (UTC)

Bwmoll3's old work

Thanks for your message Kevin. I appreciate you contacting me. However I actually cannot agree with what you propose; as Moonriddengirl tries so hard to make clear so often, we really face a major copyright liability - which could threaten the site's very existence if left unaddressed. Therefore when I find clearly dubious articles of Brent's, I am going to put them through the deletion process. It's just so sad that he did all this hard work and didn't take the time to mix his sources more, put things in his own words, and reference them!! Again thanks for dropping me a line. Buckshot06 (talk) 22:37, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

Maybe I wrote that and did not make sense, but essentially what I meant is that we would leave things so bare bones, that the articles would just have templates, a basic sentence or two, and maybe an infobox left. What would be left would just say it exists (or existed), and have links to other things for people to add back in material that is cited. I definitely agree that all offending text should be purged, but I think if we could at least save the articles so that they are bare skeletons that can be improved upon, it might be easier for someone to improve it later on in the future. I already have added back in two articles by this method, and made sure that everything that could possibly be of issue was removed, because I believe in being overly cautious about this whenever possible.

497th Combat Training Flight

I don't see anything to suggest this unit has been returned to squadron size. Although I can find post 2006 web pages referring to it as a squadron, they tend to predate the AFHRA Factsheet of May 2011, which affirms it is a flight.

At any rate, appears to have been redesignated seems more appropriate for a section on the talk page, not a move of the page. I believe the flight to squadron changes should be reverted. --Lineagegeek (talk) 22:36, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

I'll add a lineage to the 54th. By the way [evil, unciteable] primary sources indicate the 497th was not redesignated between 2006 an 2011, so if it happened, it had to be later than that. And a
