Speedy deletion nomination of Niklas Nikolajsen

[edit]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Niklas Nikolajsen requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Niklas Nikolajsen. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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.

I am fine with a speedy deletion- was not sure about the notability in the english WP tbqh. Most of the content was from the german WP article- also the sources. Ayohama (talk) 07:17, 3 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Speedy deletion was rejected by @BusterD
Will work on the article, to improve further. Ayohama (talk) 12:52, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
My decline was based purely on the G4 criteria, which the freshly sourced new article did not meet. I made no comment on the merits of the sources or how the article does or doesn't meet GNG. I'm encouraged at the pagespace work after the decline. Thanks to both of you for the civility which makes this entire pedia possible. BusterD (talk) 14:06, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Edits to Wrecking (shipwreck)

[edit]

I notice that you removed a lot of content from the article with the claim that it was unsourced. Much of that material was indeed sourced by the citations at the ends of the paragraphs. It is very common, and has long been acceptable, to place a citation at the end of a paragraph if that citation is to a source that supports all of the content in the paragraph. It is generally not acceptable to delete content that has been in an article for an extended period time unless if been previously tagged as 'citation needed' for a reasonable time, is clearly false, or is content about a living person that is not properly cited to reliable sources. I will be restoring the content that you deleted that is indeed supported by the cited sources.

You have also been very liberal about adding 'citation needed' to individual sentences. Do you really believe that every sentence in a paragraph needs a citation when there is a citation at the end of the paragraph? Donald Albury 16:39, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Donald Albury, I always double-check citations to ensure they support the claims made. If I find a lot of unsourced text in a section, I add a {More citations needed section} tag rather than removing content immediately. For paragraph-end citations, I verify that they cover the entire paragraph. If you feel some deletions were in error, feel free to restore them. Will definetly take some more care on the citations at the ends of the paragraphs. Thanks! Ayohama (talk) 16:45, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Did you check the material you deleted or placed 'citation needed' tags on against the sources cited at the end of the paragraphs? I have restored the content and removed the tags from content cited to Paul Albury and John Viele. If you could indicate which of those sentences you could not verify in the cited sources, or that you think need to have a citation at the end of a sentence, then I have both sources at hand and can provide the page numbers. Donald Albury 17:27, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
No, I didn’t. Honestly, I didn’t expect that much context to be covered by citations at the end of the paragraphs. I thought it wasn’t well-sourced, but I’ll definitely take more care with that moving forward. Ayohama (talk) 17:33, 4 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A7 on Johannes Falkenberg

[edit]

Hello Ayohama -- I've declined this speedy request because there was a clear claim in being a university museum curator. I've also restored a toned-down version of the minor claim from the history that you removed. On a side issue, please don't tag every sentence in an article with "citation needed" -- it is not needed at all if the whole article is tagged as unsourced, and in other cases should be reserved for places where a source is clearly required. Regards, Espresso Addict (talk) 16:07, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Espresso Addict, thanks for the feedback! I usually tag sentences without sources individually and use the section tag for larger unsourced parts. For Johannes Falkenberg, I missed the "This article does not cite any sources" notice and misread it. I wouldn’t have nominated it for speedy deletion otherwise—my apologies! Ayohama (talk) 17:08, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
In this case there look to be several book reviews available, so I think the subject is probably going to be notable under WP:AUTHOR. Espresso Addict (talk) 17:10, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Just saw you are working on it- thanks for mentioning Ayohama (talk) 17:12, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As a further note for future reference, belatedly looking at the talk page it had actually been kept at Articles for deletion in 2021, and sufficient reviews to meet WP:AUTHOR had already been provided, but never added. If an article has previously been kept at AfD it is not eligible for most kinds of speedy nor for proposed deletion. Espresso Addict (talk) 18:11, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the note Ayohama (talk) 18:12, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Iraq shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
