Disambiguation link notification for September 9

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 365lax, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bethpage. 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.

Dixie

You have been blocked for 24 hours for a violation of the three revert rule on Dixie. Karl Dickman ^talk 07:34, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an administrator, who accepted the request.

Clpo13 (block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser (log))

Request reason:

I admit, I got a bit overzealous with the reverting. After I realized it was unproductive, I stopped and pursued alternate channels to resolve the issue (such as WP:RPP). Considering how certain users feel about the issue, I'll avoid touching Self-arrest and Dixie as well as related talk pages. I'll take a day off, but I want you to know I understand I violated policy. clpo13_(talk) 3:39 am, Today (UTC−4)

Accept reason:

Unblocked with a note that this block should not have been made. NeilN ^{talk to me} 15:07, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

I don't think this was a policy violation, due to the following exception to WP:3RR:

3. Reverting actions performed by banned users, and sockpuppets of banned or blocked users..

Burninthruthesky (talk) 10:36, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

There's no need for you to stay away from Self-arrest or its talk pages. In fact, discussion is occurring right now at Talk:Self-arrest that will be useful for documenting consensus if another edit war flares up. I'm sorry the situation escalated to a block. Karl Dickman ^talk 16:52, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

This block should never have been made. --NeilN ^{talk to me} 17:04, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

My thanks and commiserations to you, clpo13. I feel awful about the fact that we were simultaneously drawn into a situation where quick decision making was called for, and the edit warring component was overstepped. Oh, well. We're both going to have to wear a block log 'badge of shame' as a reminder not to intervene in the future. :( --Iryna Harpy (talk) 22:44, 21 September 2015 (UTC)

@Iryna Harpy: I feel you. Poking my nose into trouble areas has always been a problem. These pages are going to need a lot of work but I'm not sure I want to get too involved, especially with an IP user who thinks it's his way or the highway. What a cluster. clpo13_(talk) 04:48, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

In all honesty, I don't want to involve myself any further. The only reason I got involved was due to the user's aggressive comment left on another editor's talk page. I've had enough experience to sense that there was more to it than simply breaching CIVIL and NPA. As it stands, I'm one of those gluttons for punishment who works in the most controversial areas of Wikipedia: true ARBCOM sanction territory from Eastern Europe, to the Balkans, to the Middle East. The last thing I need on my plate is more of the same. Best of luck in keeping your nose clean! Oooh, but it's so difficult to not poke one's nose in just for a peek... --Iryna Harpy (talk) 05:07, 22 September 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Rotem sivan

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 Rotem sivan, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

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 removed 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.

Hello, I'm not writing an autobiography about myself. I'm writing a biography about Sage Mason and the controversy surrounding his tenure at Phillips Exeter Academy.

Request for edit

Hi! Thanks you for editing my recent Arthur Elsenaar entry. Before this article, I added an entry on artist Dani Ploeger, but this has been flagged as COI and notability has been questioned. As a curator, I do know the artist, so I guess it's a fair point. If you have time, would you be willing to look at the article and consider notability etc.? In its current state the article looks rather shabby, and since I'm not supposed to edit it anymore I would actually also be fine with deletion if nobody else feels it's relevant enough to look after.

Friendly advice

Please do not advise editors that they can use WP:UNDELETE to request that pages that have been nominated for speedy deletion as you did here. This is against process and only causes more work for the adminstrators (and volunteers) to procedurally decline the request because the page is a process intended to assist users in restoring pages or files that were uncontroversially deleted via proposed deletion, under certain speedy deletion criteria (such as maintenance deletions or rejected Articles for creation drafts), or in "articles for deletion" debates with little or no participation other than the nominator which does not apply in the case of the article you contacted Ememasco about (which was CSD:A7). If this bad advice continues, I will raise it as a concern to the administrators that regularly process the requests to determine if corrective action is warranted.

My page Commander One

Hi! My name is Dasha. I see you checked my page Commander One. Please help me. What do I need to do to improve it and have it published?DashaG11 (talk) 09:08, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

@DashaG11: Hi Dasha. I'd advise you to take a look at the policy pages, such as those on reliable, secondary sources. I see there are references added, so that's a good first step. The next step would be making those into inline citations, so readers can verify any claims made. Also, try to expand the article beyond a list of features, such as adding in what the media is saying about the product. Notability is a big part of Wikipedia. It's not just a list of everything that exists. clpo13_(talk) 09:20, 16 September 2015 (UTC)

Removing a picture in Korea under Japanese rule

"Hello, I'm Clpo13. I noticed that you recently removed some content from Korea under Japanese rule without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; I restored the removed content. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. clpo13(talk) 15:21, 13 September 2015 (UTC)"

Hi, Cody I would appreciate if you can help me removing a particular picture in the article "Korea under Japanese rule." I can assure you that the picture of President Park Chung Hee posing as a Japanese officer is intended to undermine his and his daughter's--who is currently presiding over Korea--reputation. Explaining the entire story will be very difficult, but I will try to provide a sketch. The reason I believe so, and am quite convinced, is that, as you can clearly see from the title of the article in question, Koreans still hold a grudge against Japanese people. As a twentysomething adult who have spent a fair part of my life in Korea, the anger towards the Japanese is hardwired into our systems. The leftist parties in Korea have often used this hatred in instigating the public in order to gain political power. The current president of Korea is Park Geun Hae, who is the daughter of Park Chung Hee, the youth in the picture (which also "happens" to have his Japanese name in the caption). It is likely that for whatever reason, whoever put the picture in the article, which I think is absolutely unnecessary, has a certain political ulterior in deciding to do so.

So here is my reason for deleting the picture. In short: I think the picture was unnecessary. If you understand my concerns, I would appreciate if you can delete the picture for me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 180.71.20.184 (talk) 14:23, 17 September 2015 (UTC)

@180.71.20.184: I only reverted your edit because there was no explanation for removing content (such as in the edit summary). I'm not passing judgement on what should or shouldn't be on that page. If you want, you can bring this issue up on the talk page of the article for others to weigh in. clpo13_(talk) 06:18, 19 September 2015 (UTC)

Some edits that you made this morning

I'm sorry, but there seems to be a problem with the edits you made to Lady Day, Fiscal year and Use (law). In the first article, you added the information that after the calendar change in 1752 Old Lady Day was 6 April. In point of fact, if you check the Calendar (New Style) Act 1750, you will see that eleven days were omitted. Setting a time line:

March 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 April  1  2  3   4   5
      +0 +1 +2 +3 +4 +5 +6       +7 +8 +9 +10 +11

So Old Lady Day was 5 April.

In the second article you said that landlords and tax officials took advantage of the change to collect eleven days early. In fact that same Act of Parliament provided that the dates of collection should be retarded eleven days so that this did not happen.

In the third article, you said that in setting up a trust a property owner would transfer his property to the trustee on the basis that the trustee would transfer it to his children after his death. What is your source for that claim? Normally, someone who wanted to leave his property to someone other than the eldest son would set up a trust on the basis that he would continue to live in it until his death, when it would pass to his heirs. If the system were as you describe the trustee would move in so where would the family go? Are you expecting them to buy another house? What would be the point? 188.222.174.10 (talk) 16:21, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

First, I'm not convinced you're as new to this issue as you appear, and second, I did not change any information beyond reverting a WP:BLOCKed user in violation of his or her block. clpo13_(talk) 16:39, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) per WP:BLOCK When reverting edits, care should be taken not to reinstate material that may be in violation of such core policies as neutrality, verifiability, and biographies of living persons. Why did you choose to add back the incorrect information the editor had removed rather than AGF? 78.146.208.121 (talk) 18:01, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

Check that verifiability policy again. The content changed at those articles was unsourced, probably WP:OR or WP:SYNTH. clpo13_(talk) 18:07, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

I've been blocking these IPs as they post, as it's the banned Vote (X) for Change.

I figured as much. Thanks for the heads up. clpo13_(talk) 18:16, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)There's something you're both missing. Clpo13 says The 5 April year end for personal tax and benefits reflects the old ecclesiastical calendar, with New Year falling on 25 March (Lady Day). He also says From 1753 until 1799, the tax year in Great Britain began on 5 April, which was the old style new year of 25 March. So first he says it ended on 5 April, then he says it began on 5 April. One of those statements must be wrong. 176.250.248.180 (talk) 18:41, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

Maybe if there were clearer sources, this wouldn't be an issue. In any case, I said nothing of the sort. Stop putting words in my mouth. In fact, drop the subject here. Block evasion notwithstanding, that's a subject better-suited for the article talk page. clpo13_(talk) 18:45, 7 October 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for restoring the correct version of Use (law). Now do you agree to the restoration of the correct versions of Fiscal year and Lady Day? 176.250.248.180 (talk) 09:44, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

About RAT in the Browser page

Hi Clpo13,

Thank you for the note. As a first time user of wikipedia, I see that the page that I ctreated was redirected to another page, which I think should not be the case. The RitB, is a specific sort of malware, describing the group of malware likes Dyre, Dridex and others, unlike simply talking about Remote Acess Administrator, which is more general and describe what RAT is all about.

@DDavisDDavis: You're quite welcome. As far as new pages go, I'd suggest heading to Articles for Creation. Experienced editors there can assist you in building a page according to Wikipedia's guidelines. Keep in mind that you'll need a lot of unbiased news sources to establish notability for an article (see WP:42).

Might you consider suggesting a no-fault freeze of RfC H. naledi?

At the time you started the RfC of Homo naledi - it was probably unavoidable. I have made a suggestion that someone - not me - suggests something that is mentioned in this[1] link. If you suggest this, then I - or you - could contact individually the other parties involved. If I and the others say yes to "your" suggestion, then the discussion can be marked as a "no-fault freeze of the discussion - by consensus". (If I make the suggestion, so to speak, then that could possibly be used against arguments (supporting my view) in the ongoing RfC. Thank you. --Here to sway (talk) 13:38, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

Need Help...

Hello, I need help writing an article on a Film Critic from Canada who works with the IWK Someone on here keeps tagging it for deletion before I can even began??? Is there someone that can write it or do I do it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by ShiloSixx (talk • contribs) 19:11, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

@ShiloSixx: Hi ShiloSixx, I'd recommend going through Articles for Creation. The experienced editors there can assist in putting together an article and fixing any problems before it's submitted. Generally, the problems new editors run into when writing an article is establishing notability and finding enough reliable sources. You can also ask at the Teahouse for questions on what will work for sources. clpo13_(talk) 19:19, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

Rollback granted

Hi Clpo13. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
Rollback should never be used to edit war.
If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — MusikAnimal ^talk 03:48, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

Indian King/Emperor pages

Hi Clpo13.
I noticed your welcome to Khaadaal (talk · contribs) after they created Thakur Sardar Singh Koli. I then noticed the similar Thakur Himmat Singh Makwana page started by Hapapapajia (talk · contribs) who I have welcomed. The sourcing /referencing 'syle' looks very similar, and somewhat similarly deficient!
I wonder if there is an educational project behind these pages? 220 of ^Borg 10:45, 25 September 2015 (UTC)

@220 of Borg: I was thinking the exact thing about it being a school project. I suppose it's not much of an issue if these editors are not being disruptive. clpo13_(talk) 02:36, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

True. But I have come across others in the past and its quite obvious it's all done in good faith, if a little over enthusiastic, uncontrolled and not quite normal WP procedure being followed! Sometime they get a little 'ruffled' when their pages get speeded, which can be a problem. There was one where it was easy to work out the connections because about two(?) dozen+ noobs were 'reviewing' and commenting on each others new creations. I think once the instructor was located and a proper project page was created etc. it all settled down.

• I did mention it for information/comment at Wikipedia:Education noticeboard/Archive 11#Indian emperors, though WP:WikiProject India may have been a better venue. 220 of ^Borg 05:08, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

I came across another of these pages Thakur Wakhat Singh Ji, and added it to the Education board list. ~~Then I discovered that all the creators of these pages were now blocked as socks!~~ See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Thakur Abha Singh Makwana & Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of KingMandhata74. 220 of ^Borg 07:29, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Well that got weird and crazy.

If they're about someone actually notable, they'll be recreated in time. What a strange saga. clpo13_(talk) 07:33, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

@JamesCor90: Did you read the policy pages? They're there for a reason. If you're connected to the band and writing an article about them, it's a conflict of interest.

Hello. You instigated the Rfc at Talk:Homo_naledi#RfC:_a_dozen_articles_rejected_by_Nature on September 25. There has been discussion, but I am not sure if enough participants have commented to establish consensus. I am not sure how long RfCs typically last until closed, nor of the process of closing it, and as I am an involved editor do not want to do it myself. But as the article is currently locked pending resolution, any assistance you might provide as an uninterested editor and administrator would be appreciated. Cheers, --Animalparty!

Yaros belkin (talk) 04:56, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Greetings. All I wanted is finally inform the world about some information about the company. As you see there are very few pieces of information there, all very humble (same as I am) and easily verified. Please tell me what did I do wrong.

@Yaros belkin: Well, your user name seems to indicate you have some sort of connection with this company (Yaros belkin & Belkin Marketing). If that's the case, you should read the advice at the plain and simple conflict of interest guide. If not, then my mistake. In any case it's important to keep the Belkin Marketing page neutral, but you have to be wary of adding anything that might be seen as promotional. clpo13_(talk) 05:26, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

@Clpo13: Yes, I do have relation to the company, but why would it mean that I would try to promote it? I am an adequate person and I do understand what Wiki is all about so my ONLY intention was to provide some general information about the company and this is it. Please read the page yourself and help me judge whether it is neutral enough. I do not plan to add anything else to it, only company logo but for some reason I can not do that. Lil help on this, by the way?

It's always a good idea to declare a conflict of interest somewhere, such as on your user page, even if you don't plan on making promotional edits. Wikipedia has had an unfortunate history of editors promoting their employers or other interests and not divulging their connections. As for uploading images, follow the Wikipedia:File Upload Wizard. You'll need to provide a fair use rationale for using a copyrighted image, and the wizard will walk you through that. A small version of company logos is usually acceptable. clpo13_(talk) 05:38, 8 October 2015 (UTC)

Paul§Paul bourgoin (talk) 18:09, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Under American copyright law, everything published in the US before 1923 is in the public domain and can be freely used on Wikipedia. For images published later things become much more complicated. We'd need to know whether it was published with a copyright notice, and whether that was renewed within the first 28 years after publication. See commons:Commons:Copyright rules by territory#United States for details on US copyright law. If the images were first published in another country, that country's copyright law may also be relevant. In France, for example, copyright generally expires 70 years after the death of the author. That is, works of authors who died in 1944 or earlier generally are in the public domain in France. For images published in 1849 that's virtually guaranteed. Huon (talk) 18:31, 9 October 2015 (UTC)

Is it means that my article can be linked in page <local shared objects> in English, after click "русский"(in Russian) at left side? I wanted to my article in Russian can be seen like as in other languages about the <local shared objects>.

Problematic Jurrien J.B. Le article

I noticed you've had some serious reservations about the Jurrien J.B. Le article. You seem to be more familiar with the specific Wikipedia rules for dealing with such articles, so I'm leaving the comment here. Basically, I did a broad search and found nothing, zero, supporting this article. The user has now added a whole bunch of citations, but *none* of them mention *anything* about a person with this name (or for that matter a similar name). For example, the first citation (currently #1 in ref. list) is simply a link to the Taiwan Relations Act and the last (currently #10 in ref. list) simply an article about a specific type of operation. This is the pattern throughout. The more I've checked the more hoaxy it looks, incl. a bunch of "cover-up" citations that at first may appear genuine, but when actually checking they mention nothing about this supposed person.

DYK for Arthur Nock

On 21 October 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Arthur Nock, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that at age 28, Arthur Nock was the youngest full professor at Harvard in half a century? You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

A discussion on the use of the term God to explain Vedic terms

Dear Clpo13,

My apologies if my edit did not appear constructive. This is an issue that needs to be debated and resolved by Hindus and people learned in Sanskrit and the Vedas. I am a Hindu, but not a Sanskrit scholar. However the term "God" does not appear in any Vedic scriptures or Hindu Mantras and the term Deva is mistakenly translated to God or god. This happened in circa 1930's when the Rig Veda was translated into English. The term Agni Deva was translated into Fire God. This is incorrect. Consequently Hinduism has been described as a polytheist religion and that to is improper. There is no equivalent term for Deva in English. Just as Karma, Avatar, Mantra have been incorporated into the English language, I believe the term Deva/Devi needs to be adopted as well.

I understand I am treading on deeply ingrained religious and political issues. But it has to be addressed.

Yes what I am suggesting has profound impact in many explanations of Vedic concepts. This is by no means trivial.

Please tell me how and where I can discuss this among my Hindu brothers and sisters and Sanskrit scholars.

Regards,

I'll quote myself from Livelikemusic's talk page: The source you provided ([3]) doesn't say anything explicit about her relationship status. WP:SYNTH forbids drawing conclusions that the sources don't explicitly state. Her tweet may very well mean they aren't in a relationship, but we don't know that for sure. WP:BLP is very clear about contentious information about living people. Until there's a clearer source, the information shouldn't be added to the article. You can bring the issue up on the article talk page if you want, but I'd recommend waiting for more sources before adding anything new to the article itself. clpo13_(talk) 19:45, 24 October 2015 (UTC)

Recent Edits On Peter Martin page

Hi, I received a message that said something about being in an "edit war". I didn't know I was in one. (lol) I'm new to Wikipedia and I thought there was a glitch because when I referred to the subject of the page as Peter Martin, it changed to just Martin. I thought there was some computer reason why he lost his first name. I wasn't even sure if some things on this site was computer generated or programmed editing. I'm sorry if there's a problem. It would be nice to know why the edit preference is to drop the first name. It's uncommon in editing for publications. Surfnburn15 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Surfnburn15 (talk • contribs) 01:51, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

@Surfnburn15: There's actually another editor removing the first name. According to Wikipedia style guidelines (see MOS:LASTNAME), subsequent uses of a person's name omit the first name. I don't know why that's the policy, but I'm sure you could ask at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Biographies for clarification. Hope that helps. clpo13_(talk) 17:40, 26 October 2015 (UTC)

I am not Edit Warring

I am not edit warring. In fact, I am the only one who followed the proper procedure. I presented a large amount of citations. Consistantly used the Talk page, and merely protected the consensus made long ago. If there is ever an example of Wikipedia choosing popular opinion over its own procedure of fact checking and rules, it would be here. Please see that I am not dishonest, and review the edit history and Talk page. Thank you. Pahlavan Qahremani (talk) 16:58, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

@Pahlavan Qahremani: The policy on edit warring is clear: An editor who repeatedly restores his or her preferred version is edit warring regardless of whether their edits were justifiable. You've been reverted by three separate editors. I see this issue has been discussed on the article talk page before, and, to me, consensus appears to be against inclusion of Azerbaijani people. If you disagree, you could start a request for comment to bring in new opinions, but you absolutely shouldn't start an edit war. clpo13_(talk) 17:07, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

Then LouisAragon was as well charged with an Edit Warring warning?

What about the proper use of the Talk page?

A consensus was made. Citations given. Facts show Azeris as Iranian, but opinion against.

They failed to present citations for their point.

I showed mine in ever single portion of proof there can be.

What right is there in the rules of Wikipedia to allow this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pahlavan Qahremani (talk • contribs) 17:09, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

If there was a consensus, it's not clear considering how many people object to the inclusion of Azeris. That's why I suggested a RfC. Furthermore, no other editor has reverted more than once. You've reverted three times, which means you're bordering on violating WP:3RR. Start an RfC on the talk page before reverting any further. clpo13_(talk) 17:16, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

Which is why I am accusing a favoritism for popular opinion over facts. There are many who feel all Eastern Iranian peoples should be removed, yet they remain. Rightly so. As should Azeris, as evident of proper procedure, and my correct use of the Talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pahlavan Qahremani (talk • contribs) 17:19, 2 November 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Bull tv series uk

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 Bull tv series uk requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article or image appears to be a clear copyright infringement. This article or image appears to be a direct copy from http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4960444. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites or other printed material as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If the external website or image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text or image — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website or image but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

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 removed 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.

Closure of Complykaro AfD

Hello Clpo13, the discussion on this specific nomination was far from uncontroversial - especially as none of the "Keep" voters bothered to provide a single new reference for their allegations (an extensive online search on my part did not come up with any independent in-depth sources). If you are allowed to self-revert this closure (not sure about the process), would you please do so to let an administrator look over the case? If not, could you advise if a WP:DRV would be the next step to check the situation? I appreciate that you are trying to trim down the backlog a bit, but I believe the decision in this particular case here was too hasty. The better solution for all involved would have been a userfication as suggested in the nomination's last 2 posts. Best regards. GermanJoe (talk) 17:03, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

@GermanJoe: I've undone my closure to allow for an admin to take a look. clpo13_(talk) 17:12, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for the quick response. Trimming that increasing AfD backlog is really helpful in general, but in that specific case an admin could probably userfy the article more easily - if such a compromise is the consensus. GermanJoe (talk) 17:21, 29 November 2015 (UTC)

You can add this information into the article with proper citations. I removed it originally because it was unsourced. clpo13_(talk) 19:53, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

I already salted it after I deleted it. Thanks for closing the AfD.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:42, 1 December 2015 (UTC)

So I saw right after I saved.

Closure of Kathleen Snavely AFD

I will say the same as I said here: why did you choose to close this as a redirect? The consensus did NOT appear to lean towards redirecting, the same article was nominated for deletion only a month ago (an kept), so you should at least consider both discussions. The consensus over the two discussions was leaning towards keeping. -- Ollie231213 (talk) 22:55, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

@Ollie231213: If you disagree with my interpretation of consensus, feel free to open a review at WP:DRV. clpo13_(talk) 06:54, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Another one is Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Helmut Hoffer von Ankershoffen which I feel would be simpler simply reopening and relisted as one week is hardly enough to allow more comments without relisting and it would save everyone a 2nd nomination.

Fair enough. I relisted it. clpo13_(talk) 19:22, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for reminding me, Clpo13. I don't know why IP users keep doing this. I did not do anything wrong! I hope this stops someday. But, once again, thanks for reminding me that I have not been blocked. DBrown SPS (talk) 02:17, 6 December 2015 (UTC)

Jamie McCourt

Hi. I received your talk message in regards to the constant back and forth editing for Jamie McCourt's page. We are trying to update the page with the proper title of Co-Owner that she is entitled to use but it keeps getting reverted even though many footnotes have been provided. I need to know what acceptable documentation or references have to provided in order to keep the proper title in place. Thank you Pete731 (talk) 18:31, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
