Thank you.

The article Luen Warneke has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the notability of the subject may be deleted at any time. If you can indicate why the subject is really notable, you are free to re-create the article, making sure to cite any verifiable sources.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and for specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for musicians, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. NawlinWiki (talk) 03:04, 17 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of ProSciTech

edit
 

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

Appears to lack any coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject per WP:GNG, and WP:ORG. This article appears to be nothing more than promotion or advertising WP:DELREASON, and WP:PROMOTION. This article was tagged for notability about 1 month ago.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Steve Quinn (talk) 04:47, 19 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Jodie Rummer

edit
 

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 Jodie Rummer 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://www.physioshark.org/. 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. –MJLTalk 05:15, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Luenw. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Jodie Rummer, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:Spam);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. –MJLTalk 05:26, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Notices

edit

  There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard regarding a possible conflict of interest incident with which you may be involved. Thank you. –MJLTalk 05:49, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Luenw. This message is being sent to inform you that a request for a contributor copyright investigation has been filed at Contributor copyright investigations concerning your contributions to Wikipedia in relation to Wikipedia's copyrights policy. The listing can be found here. For some suggestions on responding, please see Responding to a CCI case. Thank you. –MJLTalk 05:49, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I'm an admin. I have asked you several questions at the Conflict of Interest Noticeboard discussion. It would be helpful if you were to familiarize yourself with the conflict of interest guideline beforehand. MER-C 09:44, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Regarding your questions.

Do you have a conflict of interest regarding Jodie Rummer? If so, why is creating an article about her improper? I know her but it's not a conflict of interest because I am not a scientist or anyway related to her career. All details were already public information and are factually correct.


Do you have a conflict of interest regarding WanderStories? If so, why is citing that website improper? What sources should you use instead? Wanderstories is a website that I contribute to also along with many others, like OpenStreetMap. I cite all appropriate sources for the information. It just so happens that Wanderstories has the most up-to-date information and often the only information regarding these topics. Some information may be available in books, like the first ascent of Mount Bowen, but I cannot find any reference to this online other than Wanderstories, nor do I know of which books have this information.


Have you edited Wikipedia for pay in the past? If so, please provide details.

No


Do you intend to edit Wikipedia for pay in the future? MER-C 09:37, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

No Luen (talk) 13:48, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

..But you have co-written articles with her professionally and have climbed Mount Pieter Botte with her....? Regardless, user generated content is an inappropriate source to use for content here. –MJLTalk 14:26, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

She has edited for Wanderstories in the past for leisure - A free website that covers Far North Queensland and North Queensland outdoor activities. People can submit articles and they get reviewed and edited before publishing - I think of it more like an online magazine. Yes, I did climbed Mount Pieter Botte with her but that doesn't make the article that I wrote about her false or incorrect. As said, I'm not a scientist so I don't believe that my writing was influenced because I knew her. She is still a notable scientist (as per the Wikipedia entry). JCU and Townsville are known for their world-class marine biology as it is situated right in the middle of the great barrier reef. It would be hard not to know her. I would be happy if you wanted to write the article or reword (if needed) and cut out sections of the one that I wrote. I think it was flagged for copyright due to the listing of publications at the bottom.

Thank you for taking the time to help keep Wikipedia clean and proper. I appreciate the work volunteers, like you, do. In the future, I will try to be mindful of these issues your brought to my attention such as user generated content, COI, and copyright-relayed issues. Luen (talk) 21:01, 6 January 2020 (UTC)Reply

Luenw it would be great if you can read through WP:COI. Note at the top is says "Any external relationship can trigger a conflict of interest. That someone has a conflict of interest is a description of a situation, not a judgement about that person's opinions, integrity, or good faith." So to your above comments, it is not about whether anything you wrote was false or incorrect, it is about the external (to wikipedia) relationships you have. What you have said above indicates that you do have a conflict of interest regarding at least two potential articles, and so you are kindly asked to abide by the relevant guidelines, which includes submitting proposed articles for review through the WP:AFC process and not making direct edits but suggesting changes on the talk pages of those articles.

Speedy deletion nomination of Townsville Bushwalking Club

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 Townsville Bushwalking Club 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 company, corporation or organization that does not credibly 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 read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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".

Making up "facts"

edit

After I removed your self published source from multiple articles you made multiple reversions where you seem to be saying you made up content. [1] "not a fact.". Really. If so why did you include it in the Wikipedia page? You put it there and then you claim it's not true. [2] "How is this a fact?" Once again why did you include it in the Wikipedia page? You put it there and then you claim it's not true. But we both know you didn't make this up. There are other sources out there. Why remove it when it was tagged as needing a citation? Why not provide a good cite or leave it for someone else to do it? Were you just taking your bat and ball and going home? On COI. You've stated re Rummer that "I know her" [3]. You've also provided links to local newspaper articles that call Luen Warneke and Jodie Rummer a "couple". You are clearly being entirely disingenuous about your connection and the level of your conflict of interest. On another note, [4] "Wanderstories is the only website where you could find this information" Sources don't need to be online. If your blog post got it from somewhere you can use that offline source. Wikipedia is a collaborative project trying to build a great source of knowledge. If you're here to help that, great, use sources you've found to help build it. If you're just interested in promoting yourself and your Wanderstories try a different venue. duffbeerforme (talk) 13:28, 20 January 2020 (UTC)Reply


I never said I "made up content". If this is a fact, then people would know it. No one knows this unless you have prior knowledge of the area. In this case, a square block can be seen at the summit and only after hiking to the summit, can you recognise it. The same could be said for The Thumb and Mt Bowen. If you add information back in, either cite Wanderstories or find another source to cite.

Wanderstories is using local knowledge, interviews, and bits and pieces of information scattered around in books, newspaper, and journals. Wanderstories puts two and two together and make sense of all the information. It would be impossible to cite sources as they are several sources, including word of mouth, and sometimes there is conflicting data due to errors in records and cartography.

You have removed all Wanderstories citations, even the citations I didn't even put there!

As stated previously, Wanderstories is not a personal blog. It's an online resource, like a magazine, that provides quality content for the North Queensland outdoor community.

I'm not interested in promoting Wanderstories or myself, and Wikipedia wouldn't be the best way to go about it. Wanderstories relies on producing quality content and word of mouth and does a good job at it. You would be hard-pressed to find an outdoorsy person who doesn't know Wanderstories in the region. Wanderstories ranks higher than Wikipedia in organic search also provides much better information to the outdoorist. My intention was to improve Wikipedia (as seen by several on my contributions, many without citing Wanderstories) and add in key bits of information in that was accurate and was of interest. - Luenw

Thorsborne Trail moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Thorsborne Trail, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your page to draft space (with a prefix of Draft: before the article title) where you can work on it with minimal disruption. When you feel that it meets our notability and neutrality requirements, and is thus ready for mainspace, please submit it using the Articles for Creation template on the page.
