Snowysusan

Hello,

I am re-visting a posting creation (The Crons Brand) that you had rejected last August with this comment.

This submission's references do not adequately evidence the subject's notability—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing, so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia.

Yet some of the primary references for footnotes were from the NY Times, Pittsburgh Post Gazette, Wall Street Journal, CNBC and USAToday.

Not sure why these references do not adquately evidence the subject's notability?

Thank you for the clarification and specific suggestion to improve the posting.

MESSAGES

Dear Snowysusan, An article about the humanitarian work I am doing recently appeared in the Miami Herald. I am trying to add it as a reference. I am not sure if I did this correctly. I also made some changes to the text and would love your feed back. Thank you, TinaTinacornely (talk) 04:30, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Articles for creation/TheQuizCenter

Dear Snowsusan,

Thanks for your editing,

You decline my first article related with my web site that is www.thequizcenter.com.

I just checked the wiki page of my competitors as like

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quizilla

• The first reference was totally dead (http://www.forbes.com/markets/feeds/afx/2006/10/16/afx3093990.html)
• The second reference is just a blog (http://xunker.livejournal.com/2002/08/04/)

Whereas my references are,

• The Chrome Web Store App. of thequizcenter : That is one of 5 popular app of Chrome Web Store in Teacher&Admin Tools category with more than 21.000 downloads per week and , average 4,18 /5 points from 39 different user.

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/test-%26-improve-your-knowl/ilagnajmjdobfhidldegnpomkhinccdi

• The second one is a user review from http://edupln.ning.com/ That is a ning site dedicated to the support of a Personal Learning Network for Educators, this review is totaly indepented from me .

http://edupln.ning.com/main/sharing/share?id=4241570%253ABlogPost%253A188480 I think this references are enough for initial publication.

Hi, wondering if the Bombs And Bottles article I submitted is good to go? I'm new at creating articles on Wikipedia, so my apologies if I seem a little lose in this process. How can I get this article in and up there? Thanks Michaelgr43 (talk) 16:26, 29 October 2012 (UTC)Michaelgr43

RazorThreat article submission

Snowysusan,

Thank you for reviewing the RazorThreat Article submission. Can you provide me with specific examples as to why the submission has been declined. It was modeled after several similar Articles. Thank you for your assistance. Frank Granite (talk) 01:39, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Neohumanism Submission

Hi Susan,

I don't know if you saw my previous message. It seems that you rejected my submission, because you think that an article already exists. Actually, it does not. The neohumanism of P R Sarkar has never been called "new humanism". And the link on Wikipedia for "neohumanism" goes to a single paragraph in a much larger article on P R Sarkar.

To clarify, the Neohumanism of P R Sarkar is a vast concept. There is no way to do it justice in a single paragraph. To amplify the subject within an article on P R Sarkar also makes no sense as it would disturb the flow of that article. Hence I propose to put a pointer under the paragraph on Neohumanism within the article on P R Sarkar to the "main article", where the subject may be more fully considered. This has already been done in the article on P R Sarkar in several instances (Ananda Marga, Social Cycle Theory, and PROUT). There are other pages on Wikipedia that relate to the works of P R Sarkar. For example, there is a page on Ananda Sutram.

P R Sarkar's philosophy of Neohumanism deserves a dedicated article and not just a single paragraph. Kindly guide me on how that may be accomplished.

--Abhidevananda (talk) 06:22, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Same subject... seeking clarification

Susan, you wrote: " As I indicated when I declined your article, if a paragraph is not enough, then add to it. Add your entire article to it you feel it is properly supported by reliable sources. There is nothing preventing you from doing that. There is no reason to delete the existing article or redirect readers to one rather than the other. Just combine your information with the information in the article that exists please."

I am still wondering if you have had a look at the article where the link to "Neohumanism" goes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prabhat_Ranjan_Sarkar. If you have, you would have noticed that there are already three [3] redirects in that article. The reason for those redirects seems obvious to me: the article is about Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar and, as such, it does not dwell on any of his main contributions. In this case I only want to amplify one of those main contributions. I do _not_ want to delete the existing article on Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar (or even the existing paragraph on Neohumanism). The article on Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar is okay. The single paragraph on Neohumanism within that article is also okay (in that context). But the subject of Neohumanism badly needs amplification. And so I would create an additional, dedicated article on the subject. To my thinking, that seems quite reasonable. To add to the article on Prabhat Ranjan Sarkar all of the material on Neohumanism that deserves mention would severely disrupt the flow of that article. So I don't understand what is the objection to my creating a dedicated article on Neohumanism. In which way would this violate the purpose or nature of Wikipedia or disturb any existing reader or contributor?

Please pardon me for nagging, but your rejection of my article - for reasons that make no sense to me - leaves me little alternative. I tried to get answers on the "live chat", waiting for well over one hour without receiving a single response. I would greatly appreciate it if you could clarify this matter for me.

Hi Snowysusan, Thanks for your advice on how to make an infobox. I copy pasted the lines for a scientist infobox by highlighting the contents. Then I filled in the relevant details.

talk page created for me

Hello, just saw notification that you have created my "talk page" and sent me a message there. Thanks for that. I've never edited/created an article before, though I think I corrected a vandalism I happened upon some time in the distant past. I've drafted a very short initial article about the Korean dance team Waveya, motivated by the fact that I was surprised that one didn't exist given their notariety. Since I don't speak/read Korean it's been a bit challenging to dig up more actual facts on them, I'll probably try to use google translate if it seems viable but really I'm hoping that the (stub?) page I've created will actually attract people who do speak/read Korean natively that could assist in fleshing out the page. I guess I'll find out. In any case it'll be a worthwhile exercise for me, I don't know what I or indeed the world would do without Wikipedia so if there's anything I can add to the body of knowledge, trivial though it may be, I'm keen to do it. This seems like a good jumping off (in?!) place. Kpopfan1a (talk) 02:59, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Re: Wavey Article

Hello Snowysusan, thanks for your edits, constructive criticism, etc. I shall indeed research as you suggest to discover some more facts. Maybe after I've found a bit more you could take another look. --Kpopfan1a (talk) 12:25, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Snowysusan, Thanks very much for creating the info box which is very helpful. There is only one bug: birth and death dates are preceded by "template". How can I delete this?

I am now ready to insert the photo. I thought I succeeded in uploading it to Wickimedia commons as "Norman Edson.jpg" but could not find it. The photo is original from my collection so there are no copyright problems and access should be free. I got to the point when the programme asked me if to keep the resolution, I agreed, it showed the photo, then dead end. I thought it had been saved. Would appreciate help.

You might be interested in User_talk:MrNiceGuy1113#Usurping_a_link. I didn't really read the article - a touch of WP:TLDR - just handled the navigation issues. I don't know whether the article is still close to the version you rejected at AfC. PamD 08:00, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

"shortology" article

Thank you for your kind answer about the "Shortology" article. Maybe we chose the wrong definition, describing it as a new way to synthesize things. Shortology is actually a book, so would it be possible to create an article describing it as a book, i.e. a literary work? We've seen that books, movies and other literary or artistic works have their own articles on wikipedia.

thank you so much.

Question: Can you also help me put a link at the end of the article to my homepage: http://www.waynecountryday.com/~damelin. Im not sure how to do it.

Also, I wasnt sure how to upload the verification.docx as a document so provided simply a link to it via my public-html file but if you would rather like it as a uploaded document and you can help me do it--by all means--no problem.

I am hopeful that this now deals with all your concerns and this can be accepted and appear soon. I look forward to hearing from you real soon. Thanks so much susan.

Dear Susan--the Damelin article has been completely rewritten and is much much shorter--would you be willing to look at it again? Im sorry I did not understand you. For example, if you look at other colleagues of mine, say Douglas Arnold at UMN he gives zero evidence at all for any of the posts he has occupied. Similarly many others, Percy Deift, George Andrews. All the same--the article now is is much much shorter. I have removed all the places where I have worked even though they are totaly true and only listed the bare minimum of things where each one can be easily verified. Id very much appreciate your help in seeing if we can get this accepted. Best, Steve. Stevenbdamelin (talk) 14:45, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

A little more help needed

Hi Susan - you kindly edited my submission a few weeks ago. Another editor has helped me a but but I am just stuck with something I think you can solve quite easily for me.

This is the submission link

A minor matter where I had noticed your efforts to assist

Greetings Snowysusan!
I noticed that you had worked to improve upon an {{AfC}} which was recently submitted and rejected. That article was subsequently re-submitted, and I reviewed it. I left these suggestions (re his Banking Sector Competition AfC) for the author/ user, which are quite detailed. I wanted to inform you of this, so you would be aware that he IS receiving attention and guidance for what appears to be a series of recent, recurring issues pertaining to related subject matter, and that as a new user, he is not being neglected.

I hope all is well with you. My Wikipedia experience is always brightened a bit whenever I see your distinctive moniker. Even if you are not the white haired grandmother that I never had, you do conjure images of an archetypal elderly relative-cum-kindly librarian, well-meaning and wise. Your actions are in accord with this, so I never feel manipulated nor deceived. I certainly don't feel that familiar stomach sinking sense of dread and dismay as when I see a certain unpleasant editor's footprint on article histories! But to be honest, I haven't seen that in a very long time, so the stomach sinking and lurching is no longer familiar at all. Best wishes for the Diwali, Thanksgiving, Hannukah, Yule-tide and overall Saturnalia season to you and your family! --FeralOink (talk) 15:26, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

Submission of Frascati DOCG and Frascati Cannellino

Hi Snowysusan,

thank you very much for your comments on two subjects which were rejected, Frascati DOCG and Frascati Cannellino

Let me say that, in good faith, I am trying to contribute to two subjects on the Frascati Wine which deserve better information. I was born in Frascati and live there, and my father and gradfather have been involved with wine since ever. I have no interest in wine, as I am an IT engineer, but I would like to contribute before I die.

Now to the points. Frascati DOC article exist in wikipedia, but this is old information, DOC has been superseded by DOCG, that's why I wanted to start a new article and improve it.

Frascati cannellino as well, is a jewel wine from Frascati little known, but famous since the ancient roman and the pope times, and that very few people know. As a matter of fact a Frascati Cannellino article exist in the Italian section of wikipedia. I wanted to make it in English and also adding some information which is missing from the italian article, since I know how was really done!

Let me add that from a writer perspective, it is frustating to see rejections when you are in good faith, especially when you see contributions from people who may not have sufficient in depth knowledge about the argument.

If you have time, please tell me if I have to contribute further or give up, in any case, many thanks

Dear Snowysusan: I have resubmitted article SPARC and Breastfeeding with a few citations. Can you pls tell me if I am on the right track?AJillani (talk) 13:14, 21 November 2012 (UTC) Subject of my article is...

− The issue bottle feeding caused by the marketing of infant formulas acted as a catalyst for SPARC’s establishment (SPARC was registered on December 17, 1992, in Islamabad, Pakistan, as Society for the Protection of the Rights of the Child).

− − IBFAN (International Baby Food Action Network), a worldwide coalition of citizen groups working for adopt and enforcement of legislations to give effect to the principles and aims of the International Code of Marketing of Breastmilk Substitutes (“the International Code”) , made SPARC a member and helped it in opposing the marketing of breastmilk substitutes.

− − In December 1985, one of SPARC's founding member, Mr Anees Jillani conducted a study for UNICEF concerning the implementation of the International Code. In February 1992, Mr Jillani was sent by UNICEF to attend an IBFAN Training Course on Implementing the International Code in Malaysia. From September 23 to October 3, 1992, IBFAN asked him to attend as a resource person its Training Course on Implementing the International Code in Antigua, Guatemala and then its Regional Training cum Workshop at Dhulikhel, Nepal, from January 27 to February 4, 1995. From September 6 to 8, 1983, he was invited by the WHO to attend an Informal Consultants Briefing on the International Code in Geneva, Switzerland.

− − In the midst of all these developments, Mr Jillani was asked by Unicef to draft a national legislation for implementation of the International Code which, which after undergoing several modifications and stiff resistance from the infant formula industry, eventually led to the enactment of the Protection of Breastfeeding and Young Child Nutrition Ordinance in October 1992. Subsequently, Unicef asked Mr Jillani to draft the Rules under the Ordinance which eventually were notified to come into force in February 2010.

Frascati Cannellino

Hi Snowysusan, thank you very much!

I really appreciate you taking your time to guide me through the submission process, these are my first contributions and I admit, I am a novice.

I have expanded it a bit and as you suggests, added several references, which are all independent. Just as a curiosity, you mention that the Italian Frascati Cannellino has 14 sources, but if you look carefully, they only the first two are real ones, the other 12 are references to a web site of food which they say can be coupled with Cannellino (and I doubt it), and has nothing to do with wine itself.

You are mentioning that the reader has to verify what is written, if you need any evidence that I have taken it from the sources, I can send you the reference and the material itself.

Thank you for supporting, if the article has reached a decent level, I will continue to improve it further and also resubmit the other pending article on Frascati DOCG.

Many thanks again

The Wikipedia page "User talk:Lauriebak" has been changed on 18 November 2012 by Snowysusan, with the edit summary: /* Welcome! */ new section

etc.

I really don't know what to do with these messages and I don't know the status of my article. I'm really not interested in editing or chatting at this time ... just want to get this article accepted.

Can you explain the process?

Thank you for your welcome and the pointers. Wikipedia is still a bit like a foreign language and will take me a little while to absorb all the info you have sent me.

Snowysusan, thank you for reviewing the article I recently put up for creation. The reason that you rejected the article is that it apparently read more like an ad to you than an encyclopedia entry. I am wondering what kind of information you would suggest adding to make it more appropriate.

New 'SoccerStarz' page that was declined because of referencing issues.

Hi Snowysusan

Please see my new updated page regarding 'SoccerStarz'. I have put in as many references as I can find at this time. As the brand is a fairly new product, there is not that many articles on the subject at the moment, however over time and with other contributors help I'm sure we can build this page up to be a very reliable and verifiable source of information. If there are any other specifics that require references, would you be kind enough to point them out to me.

Many Thanks

Decline due to non "notability"

I understand and accept the reasoning behind declining the proposed Wikipedia article for "Rachael Kelsey Smith," a prominent feline activist and up and coming graphic design artist. However, I find Wikipedia definition of "notable" both loose and contradictory. For example, there is a very large page devoted solely to Kim Kardashian. Really? As a member of America for over 23 years, I fail to see how Kim Kardashian has contributed to society at all; and the fact that her page credits her as a "style icon" leads me to question the editing staff of Wikipedia as an entirety.

I am resubmitting the article about Robbie Steinhouse that you declined on 21 Sept.

Please clarify Notability

Good Day Snowysusan, please clarify how we need to prove notability for the page Nampak Limited. As mentioned the company is indeed one of the biggest companies in Africa and very notable. I did not include all the ref links as it would seem very spammy to add well over 500 links mentioning Nampak as a major company in Africa (thought the Bloomburg link would be enough). Please advise me of the best way to incorporate these links and I will do just that. The company is listed on List of companies traded on the JSE and many much smaller, less notable companies are listed. Any help from you to get this listing live would be appreciated.

I have many news stories showing the credibility of Nampak Nampak News By reditable Third Party News Source In SA

Hybrid Law submission

Hi Susan,

as I am (very) new at this I quite don't understand if my article is good to go or not. Is there anything else I should do, as I already re edited it after being rejected once? Thank you, Anne — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnneWilmont (talk • contribs) 13:31, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

Focal Point page updated to include further references for notability

Hi,

I have updated the Focal Point page to include further references for notability. It is not a new tool; it has been around over 10 years and has tens of thousands of users. The references I added were a link to an independent survey on LinkedIn that rated it highest amongst Product Management tools, a link to the most recent Gartner EA Magic Quadrant within which Focal Point and System Architect are listed in the Leaders quadrant -- in fact they are highest in "ability to execute" but Gartner does not allow any vendor to say a tool finished highest; you can only say are listed as Leaders. I also added a link to an integration with Computer Associates Planview, which is one of the most widely used project management tools in the industry. There is a page on IBM that lists customer stories but I don't know if this should be on the wikipedia page -- published by IBM but shows how many big companies are using this product successfully http://www-01.ibm.com/software/success/cssdb.nsf/softwareL2VW?OpenView&Count=10&RestrictToCategory=default_RationalFocalPoint&cty=en_us

Crystal Spectacles

Snowysusan: Thank you for reviewing my submission so quickly. Can you explain what would be considered cite verifiable? I shared that the song Epistle To Dippy by Donovan refers to the Crystal Spectacles and that they are shown in the movie Imagine, about John Lennon.

Neptune Society Review

Hi SnowySusan,

Thank you for your feedback regarding my submission of the Neptune Society. You commented that the submission did not read neutral, but rather as a sales pitch. Can you please provide an example. My submission covers 4 distinct companies, and I made an effort to state only facts without showing preference to any one company.

Your feedback also stated that footnotes should related only to external sources. In this case, the references were from Business Week and the Houston Chronicle, not from company releases. So, what would you recommend?

Clean-up templates at AfC

Hi Snowysusan, I notice you're adding clean-up templates to draft articles at AfC. I'm not sure this is a good idea, because these are not articles yet, therefore have plenty of opportunity for improvement before they're moved to article space (if ever). Clean-up templates will add these drafts to someone's work list too! It will be far better (you've been doing this anyway) to add a brief word of advice in the form of an afc comment. Hope that makes sense. All the best! Sionk (talk) 10:32, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Justin P. Wayoro

Hello. You are one of four editors who inspected/declined Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Justin P. Wayoro for reasons other than blatant copyvio. This article was merely a bunch of text cobbled together from various sites. Step one in reviewing an article for creation should be to dump a string into google to see if it is a copyvio. If it is, the text should be immediately removed and an inspection of any images should be undertaken. In this case, the style of writing should have set of all sorts of copyvio alarm bells in your mind. Cheers, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 18:17, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Creation of Wikipage for Teodoras Daukantas ( Lithuanian Cabinet Defense Minister , 1925-1927 ) Member of European League of Nations : 1932 Treaty signator with Carlos Saveedra Lamas Treaty # 3542

Sue;

 I am Jorge Vytautas Daukantas , nephew of Teodoras Daukantas, Independent Republic of Lithuania Defense Minister ( 1924-1927).
Stephen Philbrick of Wikipedia Free Encyclopedia has allowed images of the Eastern European Lyceum images of Teodoras Daukantas to be uploaded to Google Images .   The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum  under USHMM Atchivist Rebecca Erbelding has approved a "Deed of Gift" of the Ceslovas Daukantas  collection to be placed  in the "Rescuing the Evidence" and Permanent Collections" Archives at the U.S.H.M.M.

Hello,

I am re-visting a posting creation (The Crons Brand) that you had rejected last August with this comment.

This submission's references do not adequately evidence the subject's notability—see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies and the golden rule. Please improve the submission's referencing, so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia.

Yet some of the primary references for footnotes were from the NY Times, Pittsburgh Post Gazette, Wall Street Journal, CNBC and USAToday. Not sure why these references do not adquately evidence the subject's notability?

Thank you for the clarification and specific suggestion to improve the posting.

Thank you for putting the article Walkodile" back to it's original version. I also tried to undo one of the edits. I hope I didn't make a mess of it and undo what you did!

I can't believe some people can be so mean spirited about an article that they would tae the time & choose to go into it and vandalise it. Does this happen often? Is there any way I can stop vandalism to the article?

Walkodile was meant to keep children safer - nothing more. We never intended to offend anyone.

p.a. If the article gets vandalised again is there a way for me to delete it. I don't know if I could stand having to check on it all the time for vandalism? It would be a shame but we'd have to consider it.Thanks.

Yes, I havr read a little too far between the lines with that game, but trust me: I have reigned myself in tremendously. If I did anything with that game: it would be a totally different game! I would have to triple the final version to guide someone throug my "deductions". Just to give an example, I tried making the leaders of the Shroobs brothers (the NN leader and Fawful) I then made the Twibug the Dark Star after losing cotrol and going 'supernova' (what else would you call it). Then, I made the Dark Star a Shroob teraforming device built by Fawful (and lost), because the moon in Majora's Mask ate their planet, and the original Shroob sisters. See how off-target I got!

Review of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Identifiers.org

Hi,

Thanks very much for looking at my article. I'm afraid I've been very busy, and have only just come back to it, since I had some messages asking people why there was no page on wikipedia ;/ Anyway, I see that you rejected this article stating that it is already covered under Uniform Resource Identifier. I am not entirely convinced by that argument, since by the same token 'Human' should appear under 'Mammal', which should be under 'Animal' and so on. My point is that the page I have tried to create is an example of a URI system, in the same way a Human is an example (sub category) of Mammal. There are already other examples of URI systems which have individual articles in Wikipedia. For instance LSID and Digital Object Identifier.

This article was previously rejected as it did not provide enough context, and issue I had addressed before submitting for the review that you conducted. I would be grateful if you could take another look at it for me.

Thanks very much in advance. Nsjuty (talk) 16:24, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

Reply to the Comments found to be public on the Internet and Resubmission of the Contribution

Dear Snowysusan, Greetings! At first, I like to thank you for your immediate response for my submission.But at the same time I am surprised to note that there is a public comment from you in a way of defamation found on the internet. I am Dr. R. Stephen Louie, from India, practising as an Advocate in the Madras High Court, India. My forte is Arbitration Law. To practise as an ADRS professional successfully I am well versed in many related fields such as English Language ( Grammar & Linguistics) , Psychology,Business Administration, International Law and other Laws.I am doing / have done many Masters for which I need not be 100 years of age.Till this date at my age 49 I have been studying since I joined school.After completing my B.A.in English from St. Xavier's College, Pallayamkottai, India,run by Jesuit Priests I joined my M.A. in English in Scott Christian College, Nagercoil,in South India. Then I continued my studies in colleges/ Universities on regular basis or by post. This is for the qualification/ recognition of my knowledge. This does not mean that I did every Masters from infamous online Universities. M.Sc in Psychology from Manonmaniam Sundaranar University in Pallayamkottai, India, M.L. from Madras University, India, M.B.A from Manonmaniam Sundarnar University,Guidance and Counselling from Annamalai University,Tamil Nadu , India, M.A in Criminology from Manaonmaniam Sundarnar University and so on. The other details can be found in my enclosed/attached Profile for your kind concern. I was and am not at all intended to promote my profession. Never did I attempt to do that at any time in the past 17/18 years of my Profession. Nor be I inclined to do such a thing.But the way I presented my article would have looked so. Sorry for it. I have fully changed the method of my presentation.I thank you profusely for giving me such an understanding! Then as to the question of my conflict of interests, I am pointing towards peace,for which Alternative Dispute Resolution System demands many aspects, which are by way of using correct language,not being predominant/dominant with any disorder such as delusion or control impulse disorder or by way of knowing/ understanding about Human Resources. A person well versed with all these can be an excellent ADR Professional. This is possible for the persons who really want to spread good news called Peace. The Religion( Christianity) has also to do a lot with this particular part of Law. If permitted by time please read my article : http://www.lawyersclubindia.com/articles/Arbitration-Law-Rooted-Out-from-The-Common-Sense-of-the-Community-3517.asp

Also my faith in Jesus Christ has made me do things in a selfless way.This is no wrong on my part. I am propagating this Peace as propagated by Jesus Christ Himself by way of ARDS Professional and an Advocate. This is a new approach whereby I have introduced a new era in ADRS. [3] I am not sponsored or paid by anyone except for my seminars or for teaching or for my Sessions as an Arbitrator or for my Pleadings/ arguments in the Hon'ble Courts.I am charging a higher fee as I am well qualified,well prepared and at good standing to achieve the target. But, you know, I do not take so many cases in a year as I could not complete them. Mine is quality centred not quantity centred. I work hard for the case to succeed. I am also particular about the ethical points in taking cases or accepting briefs.

Therefore please delete conflict of interests and other defamatory statements.If you need any proof for any of my statements I am at your disposal to send them. I am doing my Examination now also. I am teaching, learning , working where I am not bothered about my being paid for, as I believe the Cosmic Law of God as in the Bible would do its work as it is a Law. I am not believing things as it is and for anybody's sake.It is working in a reasonable way as a fixed Law for me.

You can invite me for any debate for anything you believe to be a lie on my part. I cannot pay and visit but I can spare time using my resources if sponsored. I am living happily with my wife and a child aged 7 without any conflicts whatsoever. Please do the needful.

(talk page stalker) Excuse me for jumping in here, but I notice your draft article Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/R. Stephen Loui was deleted in December 2013, therefore any comments left by Snowysusan would no longer exist either. Snowysusan has not been active on Wikipedia since 2012.

Draft articles submitted to the Articles for Creation process need to meet a number of basic criteria to be accepted, notability, neutral point of view and verifiability for example. Comments are usually left by reviewers to give pertinent help and advice.

The main problem may arise here because you appear to be writing an article about yourself. This is strongly discouraged, partly because (as you have discovered) you will find it difficult to be objective about yourself and may take personal offence at other editors' opinions/edits.

Before you submit another article about yourself, you may want to look at Wikipedia's 'golden rule' and WP:GNG to check whether you are sufficiently widely known and important for a Wikipedia profile. Kind regards. Sionk (talk) 17:02, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Hi.

What makes you think I tried to create a page about National Legal Scholars Law Firm? I didn't. I never heard of National Legal Scholars Law Firm. Your message did not please me.

Hello Snowysusan, Wikipedia has identified me as a major contributor to the Teodoras Daukantas article, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teodoras_Daukantas and agrees that I have a close connection with its subject.I am prepared to justify the claim .

justification: Wikipedia indicates that the Teodoras Daukantas page may require cleanup in order to comply with Wikipedia's content policies, particularly a neutral point of view,and on general guidelines for submission of notable individuals ,(September 2014),

I took the advice of a previous talk page critique and joined the Wiki Lithuania Project talk page as a participant . 

My initial query to the talk page allowed me,the event handler,to add my name as participant to the Wiki Lithuania Project as the aforementioned major contributor posted September 13, 2014 at 16:52.I thank the talk page source for being forthright and timely in the critique . I assured the Wikipedia source that I am on task with the clean up up of the Teodoras Daukantas page including a valid Teodoras Daukantas Image (jpg) even if it is of a Lithuanian origin.

n.b.

I need help to validate a proper image spurce for Teodoras Daukantas to justify Wikipedia criteria for uploading an image to the Wiki Media creative commons page sans fear of copyright infringement.

In that regard I have attached a hyperlink link, http://gvdaukantas.wordpress.com/ embedded within a WordPress web site thereby substantiating a claim that,Cabinet Defense Minister,Teodoras Daukantas meets the criteria for inclusion to Wikipedia Free Encyclopedia under the General Guidelines for notable individuals , Teodoras Daukantas article, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teodoras_Daukantas .--Zckjsrbn 22:51, 14 September 2014 (UTC). The two identified (microsoft.word)file.docs indicate ,(0ne European League of Nations Treaty, #3542 ) and ( One minister.doc) .

Thank you !

The courtesy of a reply is most appreciated .

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
