Hi. When you recently edited Liu Shikun, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chinese (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

The information on how many hits an article has received.

Bryce, What you had posted for the number of times that Ben Breedlove's article had been viewed...Is that "tallied" every day? I went to it today and January 4 was not counted yet. Is it counted after Midnight? thank you! Petersontinam (talk) 22:57, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Gleniffer High school

The reversion of all my edits to Gleniffer High is completely without justification

All of the changes were fully references, more accurate than the prior versions, and were in NO WAY non-neitral.

Rather, the page has been put back to how it was WITHOUT being properly checked.

This is unfair on the editor, the readers of the article who now have a misleading and bias version, written in a MORE informal and more bias style and manner.

Please put the article back to how I had it; it contains more accuracy and less bias. It gives the readers a more accurate insigh to the subject AND IT IS NEUTRAL. THERE IS NOTHING BIAS OR ONE-SIDED IN IT. IT IS ALL FACTUAL, AND CAREFULLY REFERENCED.

If there was some bias (which I tried very hard to avoid) then where is it? Why not eliminate the bias rather than ALL the improvements.

The readers of wiki now have an utterly inferior and less accurate article; which is a joke.

I did, my reversion was a totally mistake. Now, please turn your caps lock off and calm down. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 08:22, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Godsized (band)

Dear Bryce,

You declined this page for procedural reasons:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Godsized(band)

Can you please help me? This band is way above the bar for notability since they have feature coverage in national music magazines Kerrang and Metal Hammer (meeting criteria 1); received live reviews of national tours with Black Label Society and playing Download Festival (criteria 4); and were spun on BBC's Friday Rock Show, a national radio show (meeting criteria 11). The same reviewer has declined it twice but not explained why (either in his edits or on his talk page). I don't understand why - can you assist?

213.105.1.168 (talk) 16:47, 8 January 2012 (UTC)

The majority of your references are Myspace references, which are not reliable. Please cite reliable, third-party sources. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 00:31, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Bryce, thanks for the response, but I have to tell you that you're incorrect. The only self-reference is (1) where I've cited the band's influences. The others are (2) a still from the BBC radio website confirming their national airplay, (3) an article about them in the print version of Kerrang! magazine (one of the UK's top selling music magazines, it has a circulation of 43k), (4) an article from the print version of Metal Hammer magazine (which outsells Kerrang!) and (5) a repository of on- and offline press coverage about them (which I thought too tedious to list in an encyclopaedia article). This band has national press coverage, they're obviously notable. 213.105.1.168 (talk) 14:02, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

I'll be willing to take a look. In the meantime, please add sources that do not contravene WP:RS. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 14:06, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Awesome, thanks very much for taking the time. As I said, I think the sources are fine - they're scans of the original magazine articles that qualify them for notability. 213.105.1.168 (talk) 13:22, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

Relisting

According to WP:RELIST: "Therefore, in general, debates should not be relisted more than twice."

If there's been no participation after two rounds of discussion, the standard procedure is to let an admin close it. Of course, AfD is getting less and less participation these days, so there may be a case for third-round relistings, but there probably ought to be a discussion about that. —Tom Morris (talk) 13:19, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for your reminder. I'll be sure to keep that in mind. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 13:55, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Close of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/I would rather cry in a BMW

Per this the reasoning is a bit strange: "Notability established"? The article still contains no references that discuss the phrase. But that's less important than it seems an inappropriate article for non-admin closure which requires a discussion "absent any contentious debate among participants", which there was.--JohnBlackburnewordsdeeds 14:50, 13 January 2012 (UTC)

Die Laughing (Band) page refusal

Hello Mr ,

I just wanted to clarify the reasons why the page wasn't accepted please :)

Die Laughing had many contemporaries in the gothic scene of the 1990s and many of these other acts already have entries on Wikipedia with a lot less references and information than I have offered. F

Die Laughing already appear in at least two places already on Wikipedia amongst other bands which have pages:


This page for example which is linked in my article

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gothic_Rock_Volume_2:_80%27s_into_90%27s

On DISC Two track 8 there is a Die Laughing link which actually links incorrectly to an album by a comedy artist. Surely it would be better to have a correct link to bring it into line with the other entries which all seem to appear on Wikipedia. You can see many of the band's contemporaries on this compilation which have all been justified pages.

There is also a dead link here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitby_Gothic_Weekend

I have added as many references and evidence as I can to back up the page and hope to add more in the near future but as you will realise the internet wasn't at its peak during the 90s so I am having to doing a lot of scanning and paperwork to be able to provide proper links.

I realise my first admission shouldn't have been sent as it was very much a work in progress but I think the most recent one is up to scratch.

Thank you for your help,

Simon Whibley — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dielaughingofficial (talk • contribs) 13:32, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

It was declined due to no indicate of the importance...and also because of the article's lack of reliable, third-party sources. Please provide links to reliable sources and establish this band's notability. Thanks, Bryce (talk | contribs) 13:44, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Robert Tavernor

Hi Bryce

I've been editing the page above for a while now, and have studied the criteria for notable academics carefully. It seems very stange to me that I keep getting the page rejected. RT really is an important academic, and really has made a massive contribution to the field of architectural history and urban design. He really has published very notable works, the evidence for which (publishers and critics) I have tried to include. AND, with regard to the criteria for listing again, he has held an important named Chair (in Edinbrugh). So what more can I reasonably do to this article....you seem not to be applying your own criteria, which seems a little, dare I say, irrational! Dare I say, you are not an architectural historiam, are you, so how can you tell! Ive spent time on this, and followed the criteria. Please Help!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.5.64.141 (talk) 15:19, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Closure of AfD for Poet Tree

Hi, I saw your non-admin closure of this AfD. With 2 delete !votes and only 1 comment, I think a "no consensus" closure needs some explanation (and closing this as such as "non admin" may not be a wise move). --Guillaume2303 (talk) 08:53, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

There was only one delete !vote, and after it was made, the debate had to be relisted twice. Since no clear consensus was reached, and due to the fact in general debates should be relisted no more than twice, I closed it as no consensus. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 09:06, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
  • I've seen debates with this many votes closed as delete and the closure therefore does not seem to be uncontroversial. Hence it would have been better to leave this up to an admin. You can't say no consensus was reached, as all who !voted (even if it's just 2 editors) went for delete. That doesn't mean this cannot be closed as no consensus, but it does mean that a non-admin closure is inappropriate. --Guillaume2303 (talk) 17:23, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
  • To tell you the truth, I've seen exceedingly many debates that are closed as "merge", "redirect", "no consensus" and et cetera by non-admins. Those closures did not hurt anything - but I'll remind myself to only close debates that are a clear "keep". --Bryce (talk | contribs) 10:19, 19 January 2012 (UTC)

Article about Occupational Knowledge International

Could you give me more specific information about what parts of the article you thought were not neutral? The previous reviewer made the same comment, but when I asked him for specifics, he told me that the organization was not notable since he only got two hits when he googled it. It turns out he was googling the wrong name for the organization and he admitted to that and retracted is comment about notability, but never provided more detail on his comment about NPOV. He told me to resubmit and see what another reviewer thought. I removed some statements that were perhaps not neutral and resubmitted. Your comment is the same. I would like to continue to work on the article as I think that Occupational Knowledge International is an organization worthy of an article on Wikipedia, but if I have no specific input regarding which part/s of the article need to be changed, this will be a long anad arduous process.

Afd closure : Common chemicals

I don't think a non-admin Speedy Keep closure was appropriate here, as it doesn't seem to fit the criteria (ie: closed by the nominator, or blatant vandalism). However, I think an admin closing it would have probably gone for "Keep" as a consensus. --Ritchie333 (talk) 20:51, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

Please read Wikipedia:Speedy keep. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Amanda Holden (writer) may be considered a snow keep but clearly not a speedy keep. Goodvac (talk) 22:16, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Which bit of that policy do you consider appropriate in this case? Actually, I think the Amanda Holden nomination was worthy of a speedy keep, as the original nomination was little more than "not notable", with no weight in argument, whereas Common Chemicals did at least have some substance to why it should have been deleted. Anyway, it's been kept so it doesn't matter. --Ritchie333 (talk) 22:24, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Speedy keep is justified when 1) nominator withdraws or "fails to advance an argument for deletion" 2) nomination was made in bad faith 3) nominator is a banned user. None of these criteria apply. "Non-notable" is a valid argument for deletion, even though it is unsubstantiated. Goodvac (talk) 22:32, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
Changed result to just a plain keep - I'll be sure to read the policies again. Thanks --Bryce (talk | contribs) 02:04, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Sorry

Im so so sorry bryce for my behavier on MarioWiki and here forgive me :( --AwesomeSponge (talk) 12:42, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Your behavior was exceptionally childish, immature, and rude to users who actually work for admin rights. Future admins are split up into two categories - hard-working editors, and wannabes. To tell you the truth, this was absolutely enough for me to decide you are a "wannabe", don't work hard, disrespect those who do, and show a complete lack of maturity. Then you use the Super Mario Wiki for socializing, but when I told you about a billion times to stop, you continued. And then you asked User:Walkazo to "please let me be an admin and buracrat!!!" And so when I issue a final warning to stop this noted behavior, you announce retiring. Retiring is fine, but it was not my intention to let you retire, it was my intention to allow you to behave. Apologizing for all this with all your heart would be very difficult - of course, it's easy to say sorry, it's a lot harder to mean it.
So now, I'd advise you to put your previous behavior and editing patterns behind you, act mature, and work hard. Who knows, you'll be an admin as soon before you know it. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 13:29, 23 January 2012 (UTC)


i know i failed and i dont want to be a wannabe i said il will stop the let me be an admin thingie and how did you know i was being rude to admins i will stop that and im sorry about my RFA here i dont edit alot --AwesomeSponge (talk) 19:12, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

P.S. Join the PEG please

That's good - you previous behaved as if you were a wannabe, you probably necessarily weren't a wannabe, but acted like one. I'm glad to hear that you'll put your previous actions behind you. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 01:19, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
BTW, I'll see if I can join the PEG. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 02:32, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

Re: Robert Tavernor

I have followed your advice and added many third party references, justifying his status as a notable academic. Please will you take another look, as you promised?

trout

feel trouted! Don't decline any submission as you did here because of WP:MOS - either move them and tag them with wikify, fix the issue or decline because of a real issue. mabdul 13:51, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

ok, I see "you personally don't like the citation style or formatting. The use of <ref> tags is not required in any article. Editors may choose any form of inline citation, not just the most popular one." is NOT a valid reason for declining a submission - tnx for that. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 02:27, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
You might also watch and follow WT:AFC, there is an ongoing discussion about if we should add some new decline reasons (some likely, others will fail!) mabdul 02:46, 26 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks I'll have a look. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 02:46, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Request

Hello. First of all, thanks for all the great work that you do at AfDs. As to your close at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Indus Resource Center, I wonder if it is possible to request that you take a second look. There were two delete !votes (my nom and a second one), and a comment by an editor that was not policy based (and which was challenged for that reason). I would think that either it should have been closed a delete, or re-listed. Would it be possible for you to give that a think? Thanks.--Epeefleche (talk) 09:42, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Epeefleche, if I could, I would have relisted it, but according to WP:RELIST debates should not be relisted more than twice. There was two delete !votes (including your nomination statement) and one keep !vote (which you appeared to have challenged). I closed it according to WP:NPASR, so please re-nominate now if you'd like to. (If you really feel think I need to undo my close, please tell me, that's an ok option). Thanks for your compliment! --Bryce (talk | contribs) 11:02, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
Hello. It appears to have been closed as delete by Salvio giuliano (talk · contribs). I'll ensure that I'll not close any AfD's that are likely to be controversial. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 11:22, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks very much, Bryce. As I said before (and I meant it), I very much appreciate all the good work you do at the AfDs. Best.--Epeefleche (talk) 16:43, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Your review at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Ralph Waldo Tyler (1860-1921)

Mr. Bryce ,

I think my latest revisions on my Ralph Waldo Tyler article may satisfy your request for intext citations. If not please let me know what else is needed to make this article acceptable for wikipedia publication. Thank you, Karen Taborn — Preceding unsigned comment added by Karenfaye56 (talk • contribs) 19:37, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

I have copyedited, wikified, and added some further reading links to the article. Bmusician, I think it's ready for mainspace. Goodvac (talk) 22:29, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
Accepted - thank you for helping Wikipedia! --Bryce (talk | contribs) 00:40, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

Removal of Page on Personal Resource Planning

Hello Bryce

Thanks for your suggestion to create a new page on Personal Resource Planning. Actually , I was trying as how I can create a page and after creating I tried my level hard to delete but remain unsuccessful. So I left with a message. Thanks for deleting it. I am not computer expert. I shall try using your sandbox and shall also take help of my friend,if required, who is computer expert.

I shall visit again after I complete my lierary work and make practice on your sandBox.

Sorry for Inconvenience caused.

Regards Ajai Kumar Agrawal - Microsec 08:19, 28 January 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ajaijsps (talk • contribs)

In order for articles to be kept without risk of speedy deletion, you'll need to help yourself with a userspace draft, and move it it article space when it is ready. And you can experiment using Wikipedia's sandbox, but not mine. I hope you will continue to contribute, and you don't need to apologize for the inconvenience - it doesn't take one day to create a successful article. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 03:32, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Your review at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/"Big Dick Bitch" / TS Madison

Okay Im not understanding what was wrong with my submission I dont understand why it was denied like what needs to be fixed i provided all of the information about this individual . Like What is MISSING that would make the submission valid? What do you need ? This individual is a pioneer in her community.

Then I'm doubting that you have read User:Bmusician/Why was my AfC submission declined? Your submission didn't have even one reliable secondary source, not even written from a neutral point of view, and so many other things, and you are like "I dont understand why it was denied like WHAT (my emphasis) needs to be fixed.. ?" The decline reason has clearly stated what was wrong with the submission. Your submission has been blanked, credits to User:Goodvac for doing something I forgot. I have now modified the rationale for decline, and I hope it was helpful. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 06:55, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
Quick note: I've reverted the blanking, as the user practically spammed links into IRC. I've talked them through adding citations and to some extent reliable sources, and he may have enough for notability.
I will, however; decline on a WP:NOTE standing, as the article isn't ready to go live. Thanks, ~ Matthewrbowker Talk to me 07:15, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for the notification Matthewrbowker. I hope this editor can address all of the issues stated in his AfC and fix his article so it can be accepted. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 07:18, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Your review at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Goha.ru

Hey!

I added some more references, tried to resubmit for review, but the page doesn't actually reflect this. Not sure why... Is there anything else that I should add?


Thank you,

~Tata — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tataxfn (talk • contribs) 07:49, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I declined the page previously due to lack of inline citations, which the page still lacks. Also, your references need to be secondary and reliable. Thanks, Bryce (talk | contribs) 10:06, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

GA Noms

I think you've done a few GA reviews before (forgive me if I'm wrong), so ould you please check this. I asked Ironholds on IRC and he said to add some more references which I did. If possible could you review it or tell me what needs improvement and how the plot is. Thanks, --Kangaroopowah 04:16, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Kangaroopower. I must apologize for saying that I did not review a single GA before. Presently I feel the article needs more reliable sources (which Blogspot and YouTube are not) and needs some typo fixing (I'll try to fix a few). Again, although I know how to review an article for GA I haven't even reviewed a single one - you could consider contacting User:Sp33dyphil. All the best and good luck, Bryce (talk | contribs) 05:34, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
Thanks Bryce. I'll definetly add more sources but as for blogspot and youtube- well those are official, posted by riordan himself, so does that make a difference. Thanks for pointing me to Sp33dy. Best, --Kangaroopowah 16:34, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

Your review at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Goha.ru

Hey ,

You mentioned that there's not enough inline citations. Exactly what kind of citations were you looking for? As a forum, and a russian one at that, there's almost no references to the website in the English web. References to the awards and such are cited to other websites, who confirm this. What else should be added? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tataxfn (talk • contribs) 08:52, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

Please read WP:ILC and WP:RS. If there's "almost no references to the website in English web", there is no way we can establish notability, unless you can add reliable sources in the forum's language. Thanks and keep contributing, Bryce (talk | contribs) 10:18, 30 January 2012 (UTC)
