Back

I'm back.--Pratyya ^{(have a chat?)} 03:53, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

That's great! To help you out, this is an example of (1) vandalism and (2) good faith. Good luck! Mediran (t • c) 04:00, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

I've put 2 examples at CVU. Check whether they are right. It's very difficult to find one and when I found one it was already reverted.--Pratyya ^{(have a chat?)} 04:35, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Great! You're improving and progressing! Yehey! But I guess both of the diffs you presented were all edited by the editor in good faith. You can find many revision that looks inappropriate, I guess you must be more keen and observant for you to find 2 vandals and good faiths. There are many revisions made in Wikipedia every minutes, even every seconds and it is impossible that there are no vandalism there. So, I hope that you find vandals, vandals are anywhere, you must just find them. Good luck! :) Mediran (t •c) 07:52, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

 Done. Whoh!! Whoh!! I've found answers for CVUA and did.--Pratyya ^{(have a chat?)} 12:01, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

I've answered 4 questions. See whether they're correct. And please help me for the 5th and last question.--Pratyya^{(have a chat?)} 12:49, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Hello Pratyya! That's great! To be honest, the 5th question was supposed to be the 3rd task. Anyways, what you will do there is that you will just give 3 different kinds of warnings that you know that you needed for recent-changes patrolling. That's it. Good luck! ;)Mediran (t • c) 13:15, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Hello dude.

greetings MervinVillarreal (talk) 04:03, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

There were unnecessary edits that you have made that's why I reverted your edit. I really can't understand your wordings, you may rephrase it for better understanding. Thanks! Mediran(t • c) 04:09, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Alice in Wonderland movie is a British-American film? is have consensus about the nationality of the film? MervinVillarreal (talk) 04:12, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Wanna adopt me for CVU training? :)

I am quite interested in clearing vandalism and other no-good edits from Wikipedia, but I would like to sort it right. Wanna adopt me in this field? :P Cheers, Hop n hop (on the arctic ice) 08:43, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Mediran, thanks a lot for accepting me as your CVU student. :D Just a note here... I am also schooling. Not just that, 2013, I will be taking national exam. And in the next few years, I will be more busy as I am going to secondary school. So, I may/may not be able to log on every day (or even for a week or more, sometimes!) and please don't expect immediate response. Thanks, once again.

Errors

Your phrase "I make errors... a lot - if you are here to complain about a tag or a warning please assume good faith."

Perhaps you would make fewer errors if you took sufficient time to consider your reverts before making them. In particular your reverts to the WE.177 page, where you took all of six minutes to carefully consider a revert to an edit made by an editor in the UK, - on the scene so-to-speak, who had access to the museum exhibit in question, (unlike an editor located in the Philippines, who's secondary school English is passable but not good) who knew his subject, and had clearly researched his contribution carefully. In editing, as in most areas of life, judgement is everything.

I do not share your view that "... Wikipedia is one of the most reliable sources in the Internet" for the very good reason that the judgement and wisdom of editors who admit to being secondary school scholars is rarely on a par with the best and usually older editors with more knowledge of life. A little humility goes a long way. Advice offered in good faith should be seen as valuable guidance, much as a secondary school scholar might expect from a schoolteacher. 94.14.138.109 (talk) 12:18, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Furthermore, your use of the "good faith" tag is either because you fail to understand its purpose, or a calculated insult as to the motives of the editor. My understanding, is that such a link to an illustration on an external website permits a less-informed reader an opportunity to learn more about the intricacies of the weapon than could reasonably be included in a encyclopedia article, and since copyright issues prevents that illustration being used on Wikipedia, it gives a reader an insight into how the device works without violating that website's copyright. Please explain how that can be challenged as not in good faith.94.14.138.109 (talk) 12:43, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

I'm sorry sir. I'm not sure if I'm going respond to this query you have prepared but unfortunately, being rude is not my forte. If you're going to be rude and judgmental, it will get you nowhere as per the early notice posted above this page. Anyways, as your query implies, please see WP:GF for more info in regards of good faith. Good faith edits as its name suggested is that editors who are acting in good faith are trying to improve Wikipedia, but have caused disruption. That's why I recognized your edit and also the prior edit as good faith as per I see that you're in the situation. What the both of you added are badly formatted and that is not the way to add images. If you like, you may create your own account for your own and WP's sake. Thanks, Mediran (t •c) 12:41, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

I saw nothing rude about the comments above. Forthright perhaps, - but then we all have different styles, - and these are often age-related. So when you described yourself as a secondary school student with good English you set up a situation where a confrontation with someone clearly older, a native British English speaker, and with a deeper knowledge than a teenage Filipino of the technological history of British nuclear weapons could possibly have. A subject that on balance, you were not likely to be well versed in. A situation that you created. Accept your responsibility for that and move on.

Returning to the matter of rudeness, your emphasis by italicizing the word "sir" was itself very rude, given your age, your status as a school student. If you behave in such a manner it is no surprise that your elders make an appropriate judgement.

There are, in my experience, two distinct types of people contributing to Wikipedia. A fairly small group composed of those who are creative, who have no interest in regulating the behaviour of others, have no interest in banning things with which they disagree, are often highly knowlegdeable in their own specialist areas, often curmudgeonly and often burdened with huge egos. These are the people who invent things that allows civilization to progress, maintain those essential services that are the necessities of civilized life. And frequently they take badly criticisms (real or implied) from young people, with (as they see it) little real experience of life.

The second and much larger group are those people with little originality or creativity of their own, - who are of an idealistic bent, who want to change the world for the better, - who are predisposed to banning what they perceive to be bad things, and regulating the behaviour of other people - often self-justified as "in their own best interests" and "for the good of the majority". These self-appointed guardians are deeply disliked and distrusted by many in the "creatives" group. And for good reason as you have just demonstrated. An example of how wrong you and your friends have got it is on your own Talk Page

Oh my god! Where can I find such pages which can be tagged for speedy deletion? Help me please.--User:Pratyya Ghosh

There will be pages that deserve Speedy Deletion. What is so wrong about your attitude, and that of your friends, is that you are making a career out of seeking them out for no other reason than that you appear to have too much time on your hands and too little productive work to do. You have the cart leading the horse! Pathetic really! Most sensible people and certainly the "creatives" would respond by saying "Get a life". No doubt your response would be to feel hurt. Yet if it does hurt, there is some truth in it.

As said above, you yourself set up the conditions for the criticism you got. Accept your responsibility for it and learn from it. If you can't or won't learn from it then you confirm your critic's original judgement. This is after all, an encyclopedia. It isn't a social networking site for those with little creative input to offer. 94.1.2.231 (talk) 15:25, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

You're too much but thanks for those little pieces of advise. However, my tone wouldn't be like that if you're not rude in the first place. I guess you have points but please, don't be so much aggressive. This is an online encyclopedia and the way things works here are different. In addition, those speedy deletion that you have mentioned is part of his CVU. Also, I know that this is an encyclopedia and not some social networking site as what you have said. Of course, for us to have our community and interaction, we must cooperate with each other to work on things that is necessary to build this encylopedia. Mediran (t •c) 00:15, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Sorry to interrupt this conversation, but Mediran contributes very positively to Wikipedia. If not, I don't really see why he has been awarded a few barnstars by different users. Moreover, he also know how to appreciate others' efforts to improve Wikipedia, by awarding barnstars to users with remarkable records. Please refer to his contributions for evidence. Just to add, I wanted to be trained by him because I know about his positive track record in Wikipedia and know that I can learn a lot more about Wikipedia under his training. Thanks for your time in reading and understanding what I have written. Cheers, Hop n hop (on the arctic ice) 15:44, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

• (talk page stalker) 94.14.138.109/94.1.2.231, I would kindly ask that you cool off, and abstain from making borderline personal attacksagainst this (or any other) editor. This kind of behaviour is totally unacceptable, and is the polar opposite of beingcivil. Making another feel inferior to yourself, such as by using comments regarding their education; or where they live; —will not be tolerated here on this serious encyclopedia, and further inappropriate comments like those could lead to ablock. Please assume good faith when communicating with other editor's, otherwise you'll get nowhere. Thank you,-- MST☆R ^{(Merry Christmas!)} 03:50, 29 December 2012 (UTC)

Hi Mediran... this is my answer for your question. I think that my username does not violate your policy because I'm just a film lover... but if you want, I can change the name: how can I do it? PassionFilm (talk) 10:02, 28 December 2012 (UTC)

Glad you responded.

Slurpy

Hi Meridan, I'm Slurpy. I was wondering if you can do me a favor, you see, I have been dealing with some vandalism in this article:Cicero. And I am worried that it is exposed to vandalism and since vandalism in this article had happened before, I am worried it will happen again. I was wondering if you could put a semi-protection to the page, and since it is an important article, I'm asking if you could semi-protect it from vandalism, Thank you for your attention. (Slurpy121 (talk) 03:01, 31 December 2012 (UTC))

Oh... I wish I could but unfortunately, I don't have the privileges to protect any pages. Please see WP:PP to know more about our protection policy but if you have already, please submit a request at WP:RPP to have an administrator's attention to protect what ever page you want to protect from any reason.

CVUA

Again answered the CVUA questions. I've got a question. I have an alternative account for my test editing like Using twinkle and warn user or welcome user. I mean I use the warning templates of twinkle on that alternative account. Do I have problems with that? And I want that user talk page deleted. How can I do that?--Pratyya ^{(Happy New Year)} 08:43, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

It depends, if the alt account doesn't violate any policies and guidelines and it is known that the alt account is yours, then don't worry because there's no problem to worry about. I also have my alt account User:Mediran (alt). Please see WP:SOCK for more info about sockpuppetry. But remember that don't use that account on something else that is bad like voting multiple times in consensuses like AfD or RfA. But in your case that you only use it for tests, then there's nothing to worry about. Thanks! Anyways, your next task will come up. Mediran (t • c) 11:26, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

Propeller Venture Accelerator

I would contest that this page is not blatant advertising and is no more advertising then the Harvard or NASA pages are. This is a basic landing page informing interested parties who we are etc. We are a non profit accelerator which has 3 members of staff yet we get applications and interest from around the world who are interested in us. I felt that using a service such as yours which we could direct query's would be of great help to us and to entrepreneurs around the world.

Additionally companies which we have invested in have mentioned us on their pages and as such I felt it suitable to link to them.

Your timings

Please tell me the duration of your school hour.Then I'll go to the CVUA by the free time of you.--Pratyya^(Hello!) 06:49, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Pratyya. Sorry for the delays of your CVU. I'm free during 10:00 UTC until 13:00 UTC during weekdays. Also, during weekends I'm free almost the whole day but don't expect too much. I ran errands these days ago but I guess I will be somewhat back to my old timing. Your next task is ready. Thanks Mediran (t • c) 09:36, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Oh. Mediran, please make a summary to me about huggle and STiki. That would really help me.--Pratyya^(Hello!) 09:52, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

You can visit the tools section of your CVUA. There's a brief understanding on what Huggle and STiki are. Well, STiki is an anti-vandal tool consists of (1) a component that listens to the RecentChanges feed and scores edits on their possibility of being uncontructive; and (2) An application which scans through the most recent revisions on pages and scores the possibility of them being uncontructive. Huggle is a Windows program which parses (orders them on the likelihood of being unconstructive edits and on the editor's recent history) from users not on its whitelist. It allows you to revert vandalism, warn and reports users in one click. Hope this is enough. Mediran(t • c) 10:00, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you very much.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 10:05, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Question about welcome templates

Whenever I welcome users with Twinkle, I would prefer using the template as shown on this user talk page. However, I just can't find it. Do you know which one it is? Thanks in advance. Hop n hop (on the arctic ice) 09:44, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

The name of that template is {{Welcome to Wikipedia}}. If you're going to add it on a user talk page, you must subst it. To subst it, place {{subst:Welcome to Wikipedia}} or {{subst:Wtw}}. Now, because that template is not included in the Twinkle welcome module, you can go to WP:TW/PREF. This page is a preference page where you can edit your Twinkle modules. If you're going to the page, go to the "Welcome users" section then go to the "Custom welcome templates to display:" then click "Edit items" then there will be a window with boxes where you're going to fill in up saying to you to add the name of the template you want to add to your Twinkle welcome module. Then there you go. You can now add that template on user talk pages you want. Hope that helps. ;) Mediran (t •c) 11:10, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Request for adminship

Hello Mediran. Again met. My question is what'll happen if

• An user gets (Supp:10/Opp:10/Neutr:10) (example)
• An user gets (Supp:10/Opp:9/Neutr:10) (example)
• An user gets (Supp:10/Opp:9/Neutr:11-15)(example)

on the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship?--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 06:38, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

As far as I can know. Well, if the !votes were like that, most likely that all of those RfA will fail. As the criterion say perWP:RFA, "those above 80% approval pass; most of those below 70% fail". All of those were below average of 80. Well, because most of the time, Neutral !votes were ignored as the Supports and only the Opposes counts. Hope this helps. But why are you asking questions regarding RfA? Are you interested to take part-in and be an admin? Haha... just kidding. But if you are, now is not yet but the future will be. Be more tireless and you shall have what you want (if the community agrees). Thanks, Mediran (t •c) 09:54, 13 January 2013 (UTC)

WP:UAA and warnings

Hi, and thanks for your recent reports at UAA. I notice you are often warning the user about their username and then reporting them as well. Unlike vandalism or other issues, warning cannot solve the problem if the username is a blatant violation and it looks a little weird to tell someone they need to change their name and then a few minutes or hours later block them for it. So, not a real bug deal but I generally find it is better to either warn them of the violation and see if they are willing to change it or just report them at UAA and let a patrolling admin handle it. Beeblebrox (talk) 18:31, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I have did that most often since an anon complained on why I don't warn users when I'm reporting them to UAA. Well, I have been carried away from that note, sorry to you and to others for doing such actuations. Also, thanks also for that helpful note. This won't happen again. Have a nice day! ;) Mediran (t • c) 08:42, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Looks like you have gotten contradictory advice. I hate when that happens. There is not an actual policy or rule about this, but UAA, unlike other forums such as WP:ANI does not require users to be informed that they are reported there. The reason is that UAA is not really a place for discussion, it is a place to inform administrators of potential problems with usernames so that they can evaluate them and take appropriate action. Usernames that newed to be discussed by the community are dealt with at WP:RFC/NAME and do require an attempt at discussion first. Beeblebrox (talk) 20:14, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes, thanks for that advise but I was a little confused in regards of WP:ANI. As what I have understood above is that you're saying that I report users to ANI. I don't report users to ANI and never will be. Anyway, I know that UAA is just a page for a list of reported users whose usernames are invalid or inappropriate. Well, thanks for that link pointing to WP:RFC. Also, thanks for responding here and thanks also for your concern. :) Mediran(t • c) 09:01, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Henry Greenway

Hello. You have nominated the article concerning 19th c. harp builder Henry Greenway for speedy deletion. I contest that. Do you know anything about the topic of harps? Do you know even what a cross-strung harp is? On what basis did you nominate Henry Greenway, a significant 19th c. name in the history of the design of the cross-strung harp for speedy deletion? Signed:Basemetal (write to me here) 09:46, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. The reason why I tagged the article for speedy deletion in the criterion of A7 is because the subject doesn't claim any significance, it doesn't claim notability either. Here in Wikipedia, articles must meetits general notability guidelines wherein subjects must comply with the general Wikipedia standards for any articles. The article also fails WP:V as per the article is unsourced and doesn't have enough coverage. Sources are needed for verification of statements that may harm subjects if it has factual errors. The article also fails WP:BIO. If you want, please consider to use the Article Wizard on creating new articles or you can make a draft. Thanks,Mediran (t • c) 09:52, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Also, it is unnecessary to know or to have prior knowledge on the article you're going to nominate for deletion. As long as you know that the article has violated some of Wikipedia policies, it is the time to act. Mediran (t •c) 10:01, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your information but I've already created articles on Wikipedia. You do not need to teach me about creating articles. First you nominate an article for deletion under WP:CSD#A7 which is plainly false (have you read the article? don't you see that the reason for importance is given in the article?) Now it is the lack of sources. You have to make up your mind. In any case I have added a source which is none other than the Metropolitan Museum. And how does it fail WP:BIO? Have you read WP:BIO? Have you readWP:BIO#Creative Professionals? Signed: Basemetal (write to me here) 10:16, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Of course, I know all of the reasons I've presented above. What I have told you is not a big deal, but it is better to know more for subject knowledge in the future. Also, please observe your tone because it's really getting on my nerves and it is also againstWP:CIVIL. Thanks, Mediran (t • c) 11:23, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

What "really gets on your nerves" is not my problem. And to tell someone to "watch your tone" because it is "really getting on my nerves" is not exactly civil. I had said nothing but the truth, namely that you went off half-cocked marking this page for deletion without first bothering to examine what your were doing. You are giving yourself a bit of importance for someone who's been around for less than a year. Incidentally I have been around one day longer than you have so at least you have no reason to template me. You would have far fewer problems with people's tone if you bothered to check the facts first instead of jumping to mark for deletion newly created pages, just to justify your existence, and then going to check the facts. This is not the first time you're doing something like this, I believe. Signed: Basemetal (write to me here) 20:41, 19 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello again. I don't know if I'm going to response to this query. But as what is posted in the early notice at the top of this page, being rude will get you nowhere. What you were doing is not a good implication of a Wikipedian. Yes, I did erred but I'm a human also. I commit mistakes but please don't make it worse. And nobody cares if you were older than me that your account is one day older to my account. Puhh-lease... account age here in Wikipedia is nonsense and being older to other's account doesn't make you superior. Yes, you have said the truth and I respect that but don't act as if you were greater than me or for anybody else and making me inferior to you. I really don't get that you need to take this too far but again, I'll respect that. Mediran (t •c) 01:08, 20 January 2013 (UTC)

After an in-depth search of coverage, I contested the article for deletion. Just add sources and expand the article for it to comply for some WP standards for an article. Thanks, Mediran(t • c) 10:07, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Hi Mediran

I want to ask you that how do you created your CSD Log. I mean what is the CSD module? Second is to thank you. For you and those CVUA now I fully understand about vandalism. Can I ask for the rollback right? Last please remove the deletion template that you placed atBPL portal I'm improving it.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 11:32, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

If you want to have a log for all the speedy nominations you will made, go to WP:TW/PREF. Go to the "Speedy deletion (CSD)" section then adjust your settings. To adjust the log, check the box saying "Keep a log in userspace of all CSD nominations". Then there you go, you now have a log after you nominate a page again for SD. Also, yes you now have knowledge about vandalism but do more vandalism patrolling and reverts for you to have the rights. But for me, the best time to request a permission is when you graduated CVU for you to have a certification that you have completed the course and for others to know that you really know countering vandalism. But it's your choice, if you think that you're ready, don't hesitate to add your name at the list. For the Portal, I will wait for some time before withdrawing that because the portal has nothing. But you can still improve that portal even if it is in the discussion.Mediran (t • c) 11:45, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you very much.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 11:50, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

I should have thank you first. My account got promoted with review and rollback right. I should have thank you because without you I could not have known about vandalism. So thank you very very much.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 13:57, 21 January 2013 (UTC)

That's nothing, you should have not thanked me because you deserved it. Good luck with those rights you have permitted and use it in a proper way and make sure you have already understood the nature of rollback, but of course I know that you already know it because of your great persuasion. Also, you're doing good with those in your CVU. I see that you're actively participating in countering vandalism. Good luck and you're most welcome. Mediran (t • c) 12:18, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey Mediran isn't there any automatic process to represent an user about his/her status like offline or online? I mean it's really difficult change them everyday.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 12:26, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey again coming to say, you can join Wikipedia:WikiCup.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 14:21, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for that I can say invitation to the WikiCup. Anyway, I told you already last time that what you will just add in yourstatus page is only what your status is (e.g. online, offline, around, etc.) Then add {{Statustop}} on what page you want your current status to be displayed. Only place {{Statustop}} with no other attributes except if you want to set an offset (e.g. {{Statustop|offset=150}}. Then go to your common.js page then add User:Xenocidic/statusChanger2.js. This script helps you to change your status automatically by just adding importScript("User:Xenocidic/statusChanger2.js");. Then that's it. You can now change your status comfortably and easily. See my status page for reference. Hope this helps. Mediran (t • c) 09:31, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Can you also teach me about non-admin closure? Anyway I've got a question which is up to you. My question is why don't you ask for the admin rights at WP:RFA? I'm saying it's up to you. I'm just asking casually.--Pratyya^(Hello!) 10:52, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey Pratyya. Well, doing non-admin closures here in Wikipedia is an essential activity done by non-admins in thedeletion process. Of course, not all admins can handle AfD closings that's why even a non-admin can close AfDs to lessen the admin workload. Anyway, closing AfD discussions should have no doubt and you are sure that the discussion has really met whatever consensus discussed by the participants. You can read WP:NAC WP:NACD. This is an essay wherein it presents ideas and how to do non-admin closing. Also, I don't think I'm ready for being an admin yet because first and foremost, I'm newly here for 10 months now, I need more experience for being just less than a year here. Although having admin tools can be very helpful to me, it's not yet my time to get that spot. Thanks, Mediran(t • c) 11:37, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey Mediran waht is this User committed identity ? How can I get one for myself?--Pratyya^(Hello!) 11:52, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

User-committed identity is I think a type of security to prevent your account to be compromised. You should pay Template:User committed identity a visit to know more about committed identity. Thanks, Mediran (t • c) 12:19, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

This cannot be done as a WP:NAC. Please undo immediately (✉→BWilkins←✎) 12:37, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

But why? Yes, I'll undo it. Mediran (t • c)

Number one, an administrator opened it up with a very specific purpose in that "no consensus" in that case should have meant "delete". Second, 1 "delete" and 2 "keep" is not consensus to "keep". Wikipedia is not a vote, and a 66% majority is well below the 90%+ that should be a threshold for NAC's (✉→BWilkins←✎) 12:44, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for contacting me. I wasnt too familiar and made a few mistakes. Would it be possible to remove this User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist)/sandbox User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist)

Please let me know. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added byFantasianews2013 (talk • contribs) 03:57, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

It depends, if you have a valued, valid and legit reason on why that page should be removed/deleted. It is possible just include or present an edit summary for other editors to know on why you have did that kind of revision. Thanks, Mediran (t •c) 04:04, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Removal and Proposed Deletion

Hello Mediran, Thanks for your message. Im still a bit confused regarding the removal of User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist) and User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist)/sandbox. You mentionted that it should be noted on the edit summary? I tried deleted the information; however, the information couldnt be deleted. The reason why I would like to request for the removal is because I was unfamiliar with wikipedia and I made a few mistakes already when creating the usernames. I also created articles on the sandbox whereas I should have first search and create a title that was available. I then saved it and it I didn't know that it would appear on google already. That is why I ended up having two of the same name and information User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist) and User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist)/sandbox. I do apologize for this.

After these mistakes, I was able to get it right and created Lana Lo. However, I am still working on the references but I received a message saying "Proposed Deletion of Lana Lo". All the information I wrote on this article is legit. Please advise. i really need help. Thanks Mediran!

I'm a still a bit confused regarding those pages of Lana Lo (Recording Artist) (talk · contribs). However, it doesn't matter if the content of the page you recently created is in the sandbox of other users and it is not right to mess up others' userspace page, just don't think about those duplication. However, the reason why your recently created article is proposed is because it fails to meet WP'snotability policies and guidelines in biographies. You can still work on to that article since it is just asproposal for deletion. After the proposed deletion timestamp expired without any improvements or progress, the article will be deleted for good as per the reason. See WP:BIO, WP:V, WP:GNG for reference on improving that article. Thanks,Mediran (t • c) 05:22, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Removal and Improvements

Im sorry to confuse you. I am the only user that created (User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist)/sandbox and User:Lana Lo (Recording Artist) I didn't know that I wasn't suppose to create the article on the sandbox. I was also confused and didn't understand why the word USER was infront of the Artist's name the entire time. That is the reason why I redid it again. I then realized that you create the article's name by searching for its availability on the search box and once that name is available, the word USER goes away. That is why I was hoping for approval to remove them since I was the only user that created the two names by mistake which is currently showing on google search. Now that I have successful got it right with the Lana Lo's Article, I didn't want to lead confusion to those who looks her up because she's got two other wikipedias. Please help me!

I have added some more references to Lana Lo's article. The information I have written is legit and I will continue to provide more references. How would I know if someone have checked the article and approved it?

(Fantasianews2013 (talk) 07:20, 26 January 2013 (UTC))

Well, if you have created those page in the userspace of Lana Lo (Recording Artist) and if you are Lana Lo (Recording Artist), just log in then with that account and tag those pages with Template:Db-u1. However, deleting that page wouldn't be necessary if your only purpose is for it to not be visible, it's not a big deal. Also, if you're going to add another message, please add in the existing topic like in this section to have a uniform discussion. Thanks. Mediran (t •c) 09:22, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

About CVUA

What do you mean by how? Do you mean that how'll I report that user?--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 09:25, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

According to the questions raised, "where and how". Since you have only added where, it must have how. Now, what you will add is on how should users violating such policies be reported, on how you will report them, what things should you consider in reporting them. Thanks,Mediran (t • c) 09:29, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Okay you mean I have to say why I reported that user?--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 09:34, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes, also add what you should consider in reporting them (e.g. when reporting users to ANI, you should notify them, etc.)Mediran (t • c) 09:40, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Hey what should I say. Twinkle does the notification.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 09:42, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Assume you are not if Twinkle do the notifying part just think what you do in reporting users. Mediran (t •c) 09:44, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Check them whether they're right.--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 10:03, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Seems vandalisms has been stopped. I mean re vandals by a user. Nothing to report no page to protect. What'll I do?--Pratyya ^(Hello!) 10:28, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

There will be, have you checked Special:RecentChanges and STiki? It's impossible for vandalism to sleep, they're always awake and forever will be, why are we (vandal counters) existing if vandalism will stop then? There will be vandals. Mediran (t •c) 10:36, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jean-François Quentin

Just a heads up - when you relisted this you forgot to comment out the transclusion the original AfD log - I've fixed this. Thanks.--Michig (talk) 09:32, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Wow, thank you very much. I also have problems in transcluding some of my relistings. Well, thanks for that help! :)Mediran (t • c) 09:37, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Wikiproject BPL

See if you can help him

--Tito Dutta (talk) 11:19, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Haha... I don't know but I'll try. Mediran (t • c) 11:22, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Ya, he created the WikiProject, went to 2-3 WikiProject Bangladesh member, no one replied to his post. Then he came to me. But, you can guess the huge burdedn to run a WikiProject by 2 members only. --Tito Dutta (talk) 11:30, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

BTW, isn't the invitation very sweet " We're currently facing problems to run this project"? I liked it simplicity!--Tito Dutta (talk) 11:31, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, I like that very too! Anyway, I already signed up for the project. I'll see what I can do to help! Mediran (t •c) 03:51, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Hope to have your feedback...

on my first article here on Wikipedia, Koh Poh Koon. I have been working on it for hours over yesterday and today. Please refer to[version] Cheers! Arctic Kangaroo (talk) 09:10, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

So what kind of feedback do you want? Anyway, I see no really major errors and I found out that the article is fine. Great work for start. Mediran (t • c) 10:24, 28 January 2013 (UTC)

Well, just anything that can improve the article. I also noticed that you marked it as a stub, any feedback on how I can expand it, considering he's a rookie politician? Also, you may want to help me monitor vandalism on that page. Refer to history for details. Cheers! Arctic Kangaroo 10:35, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

I'll try to monitor that article. thanks, Mediran (t • c) 10:44, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks a lot...but any way to improve the stub? Arctic Kangaroo 10:47, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

You're welcome! Anyway, stub doesn't mean any harm. A stub means an article deemed too short to provide encyclopedic coverage of a subject per WP:STUB, well, you can remove that every time you want if you think the article is not a stub class. Thanks and sorry for the late replies due to I'm busy doing homeworks. Cheers! Mediran (t • c) 10:57, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Never mind, I knew that stub was just an indication of a short article, not harm. Because I was just trying to clarify why you classified it as stub so I can make improvements to the article. So, I think I will remove it at the moment, and try to update the article whenever there is something new about him. Also, no worries about late replies, studies come first, anyway. Cheers!Arctic Kangaroo 15:10, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Changed my mind. Will leave the stub template there, in case someone else thinks other stuff can be added. :) Arctic Kangaroo 12:35, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
