No problem, we didn't realize the name connection would be an issue even though these are two different entities Think DeP Ent (talk) 00:01, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Hi, I received a notification that you sent a message but I can not see or locate it. Think DeP Ent (talk) 19:11, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

The "message" was me fixing your unblock request so that it appears, by removing the indentation. You get notified every time someone changes your talk page, even if the change is just a correction of a typo rather than actual communication. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:21, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

Oh copy, thank you. Much appreciated. Are you the one approving my request? I did what you asked or at least tried to lol. I wasn't sure if I had done so correctly. Think DeP Ent (talk) 19:40, 31 October 2023 (UTC)

Will my account be renamed? Think DeP Ent (talk) 03:57, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

It should, eventually. An administrator doesn't have the ability to rename accounts. A bureaucrat needs to do it. ~Anachronist (talk) 13:55, 2 November 2023 (UTC)

No. Bureacrats don't Stewards and global renamers do. -- Deepfriedokra (talk) 12:34, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Think DeP Entertainment

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 Think DeP Entertainment, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly defined criteria, then it may soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

• It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.
• It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, 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. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for 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". 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.

January 2024

Hello, I'm AntiDionysius. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, DeP (musician), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 03:12, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello The changes that have been made are bio changes, spelling corrections, etc. what reliable sources are needed for that? N 2 The Truth (talk) 03:23, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

You added several entirely new paragraphs. AntiDionysius (talk) 03:25, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

I am in the midst of editing and you interrupted. N 2 The Truth (talk) 03:27, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Okay. You may find it useful in future to mention in an edit summary that you're not done editing, or to use Template:In use.

There were some other issues with your edits. You removed maintenance templates from the article without explanation or having solved the relevant issues. Please don't do that. Much of what you wrote also did not appear neutral in tone. Language like

With a combination of innovative word play and energetic vocal delivery, this audio appetizer serves up extraordinary sonic vibrations including coursed liberations from “Movin & Shakin” and “Bi In” to soul stirring “Hoods Off” and “It Aint Ever Enough” And as “Boxes” boldly suggest, the boundaries of genre are courageously burst wide-open. Facts, this musical feast is well beyond today’s time constraints cause,This Shit Can’t Wait!

sounds more like PR copy than an encyclopaedia. Given your username used to be "Think DeP Ent", is it possible you have some kind of external relationship with the subject of this article? AntiDionysius (talk) 03:33, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

AntiDionysius, I'm going to prevent this editor from messing this article up even more. Drmies (talk) 03:36, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Fair enough, this is probably one of those cases where the direct approach is best. Thank you. AntiDionysius (talk) 03:38, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

More and More incorrect assumptions. My previous name was a name that has been used for years. If you want to explore the why, the talk thread is there for you to actually read and not assume.

If you looked at the timestamp of the edits, it is obvious that I was in the midst of working on it but instead you jumped to your own conclusions.

Language like "With a combination of innovative word play and energetic vocal delivery, this audio appetizer serves up extraordinary sonic vibrations including coursed liberations from “Movin & Shakin” and “Bi In” to soul stirring “Hoods Off” and “It Aint Ever Enough” And as “Boxes” boldly suggest, the boundaries of genre are courageously burst wide-open. Facts, this musical feast is well beyond today’s time constraints cause,This Shit Can’t Wait!" are not MY words. They are copy that I am pulling from a source, which was being cited and then completion blocked with your hasty decision.

Whatever your role is, it would be a better practice for you to use the Talk section to actually do that, talk and ask. All of your assumptions are incorrect. If you have issues with the "writing" you have to take that up with the sources I and other editing users are pulling from. You make using this site and platform undesirable.

When the next round of "donate to help keep us running" request are sent out, I will make sure they send these to you and your colleague. N 2 The Truth (talk) 03:58, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

If you took the language directly from the source, it's not only promotional, it's copyright infringement, which is in fact a much bigger problem (being not only against Wikipedia policy, but also the law). AntiDionysius (talk) 05:11, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

More assumption. You actually aren’t good at this. Permission buy the writer was given to use... You deleted it before the citing could be added. The message said you blocked me from doing so. So make sure that is in record. Obviously, you are bored and uninformed. However, I am protected legally and am not concerned by your misunderstandings about the ins and outs of what’s happening on my end. You just are completely incorrect and have based your entire actions/statements on assumptions, feelings and nothing factual. Your spewing of assumed intellectual jargon means nothing. 187.58.15.104 (talk) 05:24, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Okay, so it was just promotional language then. That's still an issue. AntiDionysius (talk) 05:25, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

and still wrong. Perhaps not being so quick to respond can help you. It is actually explanatory and definitive writing with creative styling and flare, a style you may only have encountered for promotional use but not the case for readers, writers and others across the world. If it led you to be interested, then it may feel promotional to you. The same could be said about anything that’s talking favorably about any topic. Just because you deem something promotional does not in fact make it so. You are just simply wrong and are trying to justify it; horribly so.

I chose to use it because it explains it and worked with the writer due to researching it. You have not done so. Simply arguing a incorrect stance. 187.58.15.104 (talk) 05:34, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

No, it's promotional. Calling things "extraordinary" or "courageous" is a normative judgement, not an objective description. Wikipedia's rules about neutrality preclude that kind of thing. If you are interested in continuing to edit the cite, I would suggest reading both those neutrality rules and this guide to avoiding unintentional use of such language. AntiDionysius (talk) 05:39, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Wrong again! By definition, “extraordinary” also means to be out of the Norm.

The project being described is outside of the artist’ normal genre of R&B, song topic, production style. It is in fact extraordinary as it is completely a deviation from his previous work. It is referencing that pojng which is fact not opinion. The word “courageous” means to not be deterred by danger. Again, a fact for this project as the topic and the artist’ stance is considered a taboo or a dangerous one. You are reaching still and missing. It is because you have not researched this topic. One thing is clear, you are not the best person to be doing whatever it is you think you are doing. Your “feelings” when reading words aren’t the responsibility of me or any other editor as that it your interpretation and not fact. Moreover, I already told you that it wasn’t completed before you interrupted. I have also said, I am not interested in continuing to edit on this platform so I do not feel any sorrow behind not being able to continue to edit. However, you are completely wrong and I have no problem letting you know and others that have to encounter these issues with minor updates know how you move, think and the bias you are operating under. 187.58.15.104 (talk) 06:02, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

ok AntiDionysius (talk) 06:04, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing certain pages (DeP (musician)) for undeclared COI editing.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.  Drmies (talk) 03:37, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

• And it's not just the obvious promotional tone of these edits--they're also just really bad: poor writing, poor formatting, no proper references. I have no doubt that if you continue an indefinite COI block or a WP:NOTHERE block is in your future. Drmies (talk) 03:38, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

You and your colleague are operating from a place of Racial bias. To determine that "writing" by urban writers is "bad or poor" because it doesn't follow some standard you deem acceptable is extremely disrespectful, discreminatory and the reason why this platform, along with your assumed power, are antiquated and becoming a non-factor to brands worldwide. No need to appeal. I am tired of the unwarranted back and forth to update minor edits about a brand I have been following for years. One of which you know nothing about to be making the incorrect allegations and assumptions you continue to do. N 2 The Truth (talk) 04:07, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
