Speedy deletion nomination of Senior High School Entrance Examination

Hello Yejianfei,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Senior High School Entrance Examination for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. (tJosve05a (c) 19:07, 21 June 2013 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of 2014 China censorship of Google services

 

The article 2014 China censorship of Google services has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Almost no English sources, unreadably badly written (machine translation?) and hopelessly POV. The subject is already well covered by Internet censorship in China and it's impossible to see any way in which this article expands upon that one.

While all constructive 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. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Andyjsmith (talk) 16:12, 29 March 2015 (UTC)

It is definitely not machine translation. I can't find any unreadably words. Moreover, English Wikipedia is allowed have references or sources from other languages. The only problem is POV. I admit it is a problem. In fact, this entry is translated from the Chinese Wikipedia. Probably improving is needed, and it can be merged. -- Yejianfei (talk) 16:39, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
The words are readable but the grammar is bad in every sentence, making it almost unreadable. I agree with Andy's reasons for the proposed deletion. — Jeraphine Gryphon (talk) 18:30, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
OK, I have corrected some grammatical errors. However in fact, I don't think grammatical errors should be one of the conditions to delete an article. Moreover, the article is translated from Chinese Wikipedia rather than a native English article, and therefore there shuold be some Chinese expressions which seems strange in English. -- Yejianfei (talk) 19:10, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
Yes, but there's nothing in the article, really. Quite apart from the fact that it's almost impossible to read, the material ought to be in the main article about China's internet censorship. That's where readers would expect to find it. Andyjsmith (talk) 10:08, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
Why do you think it is almost impossible to read? I really cannot understand this logic. -- Yejianfei (talk) 14:13, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
Here is what is wrong with the article:
  1. The English is ungrammatical and strangely constructed, making it hard to read
  2. The article contains phrases such as "are obviously strongly influenced " and "this blocking is too sudden", making it non-neutral in tone
  3. The topic is already covered in a major article. This article is a content fork, which is frowned up in wikipedia. Unless there is a good reason why not, this material should be placed in Internet censorship in China
If you strongly disagree with me you are welcome to remove the deletion notice, in which case I shall take the article to a discussion deletion at WP:AFD
Andyjsmith (talk) 14:36, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
  1. If you find any bad grammar, you are welcome to correct it.
  2. It is true that "obviously" and "too sudden" sound non-neutral. I'll try to change these words. I am sorry that the article was translated from the article in Chinese Wikipedia, I didn't notice so much about POV in the original article.
  3. It is not content fork, it is a content extension or a "close-up shot". If you think it should be a part of that article, your suggestion should be merging rather than deletion. -- Yejianfei (talk) 14:59, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
It's a content fork. And I cannot merge it because (a) it's too badly written for me to be sure I've read it properly and (b) it talks about there being an ongoing event ("the blocking event hasn't stopped") but without any English language sources to support that assertion. I'm not prepare to introduce a possible inaccuracy into the main article. Since you speak Chinese and understand the material, perhaps you should merge it? Andyjsmith (talk) 15:13, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
(a) I am not asking you to merge by yourself. (b) Why do you so care about English language sources? I believe a source in any language is enough. --Yejianfei (talk) 15:51, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
This is the English wikipedia. English speakers must be able to verify information that is given in the article, which they cannot do in this case - this article relies heavily on references that most of its readers cannot understand, which fact alone is reason enough to delete it, quite without the other issues. Please read WP:NOENG. Andyjsmith (talk) 16:01, 30 March 2015 (UTC)
  • I'm not going to engage in any further pointless discussions about this article. If you want to retain it, please fix it by making it readable and adding English references. If you disagree with me then just remove the deletion notice and we'll take it to AfD. Andyjsmith (talk) 16:03, 30 March 2015 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Gh0st RAT, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Trojan. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

What level are you?

I found your name at Category:User js (probably because you posted the corresponding userbox on your user page), in the level-unspecified list of JavaScript programmers.

I was wondering how experienced you are at JavaScript, and whether you might be interested in getting involved with developing user scripts, hobnobbing with other JavaScript programmers, and organizing and improving JavaScript articles and support pages.

We do all of that and more at the JavaScript WikiProject.

Scripts undergoing development, and the state of JavaScript on Wikipedia, are discussed on the talk page.

For an overview of JavaScript coverage on Wikipedia, see Draft:Outline of JavaScript and Index of JavaScript-related articles. For everything on user scripts, see User:The Transhumanist/Outline of scripts.

The WikiProject also organizes every resource it can find about JavaScript out there, such as articles, books, tutorials, etc. See our growing Reference library. If you know of any good ones, please add them.

If you would like to join the JavaScript WikiProject, feel free to add your name to the participants list.

Hope to see you there! The Transhumanist 16:55, 12 May 2017 (UTC)

Well, only a little. I've changed the it into {{user js-1}}. --Yejianfei (talk) 16:47, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
I've been busy writing scripts. I was wondering if you would like to beta test one for me....
Here it is:
User:The Transhumanist/StripSearchInWikicode.js – this strips search results down to a bare list of links, and inserts wikilink formatting for ease of insertion of those links into lists. Please try it and let me know if it makes any sense. I find it most useful when changing the search results to showing 5000. (see Wikipedia:Tip of the day/March 18).
To install it, add this to your Vector.js page:
importScript("User:The Transhumanist/StripSearchInWikicode.js");
Then do some searches. It works best with searches using the "intitle:" parameter. Like "intitle:Alaska".
I look forward to your comments, questions, ideas, and suggestions. The Transhumanist 09:28, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution

  Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Internet censorship in China into Great Firewall. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:21, 21 September 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of RYB Education

 

Do not create articles about living people that are entirely negative in tone and unsourced. Wikipedia has a policy of verifiability and any negative information we use must be reliably sourced, and our articles must be balanced. Negative, unreferenced biographies of living people are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Under section G10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy may be blocked from editing.

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. Govindaharihari (talk) 23:15, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

It is about an organization rather than a person, and it is well-source. If you ask for speedy deletion, you are doing a vandalism. It is you who will be blocked. --Yejianfei (talk) 00:12, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

RYB_Education

Hi there - there is a section open at blp noticeboard where a wikipedia arbiter recommends deletion, have a look there. thanks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons/Noticeboard#RYB_EducationGovindaharihari (talk) 00:23, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Warning

Do not add material about living non-public people accused of crimes but not convicted; do not add material about non-public people even when convicted if it is not essential to the article. This is even true if one does not name them. This is a violation of WP:BLP and will not be tolerated. You may also not add rumors at third hand. X said to ha reporter that a child said that Y did something is not reliable content for an encyclopedia. I am in the process of removing at least the names, and also the material that violates WP:NOT TABLOID. Excessive detail also violates BLP and TABLOID. The specifications of morning and evening and so on would be appropriate to the report of a major battle in a war, but not here. As an encyclopedia that is intended to be readable, we do not repeat names of organizations after the first mention except when needed for clarity. We link to otherWP articles only once for each article. I am fixing this and other matters of style.

If you restore it, you will be blocked. this is part of my responsibility as an administrator and I cannot ignore it. To clarify this, the standard formal warning follows

(On the other hand, adding unquestionably reliable references to appropriate material is a good thing to do. In addition to confirming the material, it provides users who do want to see the detail the information needed to find it. Providing that sort of access is one of the purposes of an encyclopedia.). DGG ( talk ) 06:11, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

November 2017

  This is your only warning; if you add defamatory content to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. DGG ( talk ) 06:12, 29 November 2017 (UTC)

@DGG: I don't think it breaks BLP. Li is a very common surname shared by 92.76 million people in China, so when the police say "Mr Li" or "Ms Li", it actually means nothing, just like John Doe. Liu is the same, a very common surname. --Yejianfei (talk) 06:53, 29 November 2017 (UTC)
