COI and Very Long Warning

Hello! Thank you for proposing changes to my first wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_A._Hirsch You put in a COI and Very Long warning. To solve these problems what can I do? I was thinking of making another wikipedia page for Hirsch's Media appearances to condense the page so it is shorter. However, I do not know what I can do for the COI warning. I was provided no incentive for this page and created the page because David Hirsch is a respected member of the community with large achievements. Please help me troubleshoot this! Thank you again!--Dadsofamerica (talk) 04:55, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

(TPS)DadsofamericaYour article was unfortunately deleted as you had copied from a site which does not allow you to do so. You may create the article again but this time remember not to copy from any site,though if you have any relationship with the subject of the artice I would strongly suggest you to read WP:COI.ThanksRADICAL SODA(FORCE) 10:01, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank You!

I see what you mean. Simple words like "expert" can impose bias without 100% evidence. Additionally, I will work to use my references to paraphrase rather than take text. Much Appreciated!--Dadsofamerica (talk) 16:37, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Mandingo (band)

Hello El cid, el campeador. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Mandingo (band), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Being signed to a notable label indicates importance/significance (WP:CCSI#SINGER, WP:CCSI#BAND). Thank you. SoWhy 14:07, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

Semi-glitch on your userpage

Hey,

When viewing your user page in my browser (Firefox 52.2), the image gallery is all the way below the infobox on the right hand side, instead of next to it. Not really a big glitch, but it could look nicer :)

Speedy Deletion

I'm not sure how to request one so I came to you. I found a draft that does not really qualify for an article and I wanted to request that it be deleted. Dinah In Wonderland 14:57, 8 August 2017 (UTC)

Organi Giudiziari G12

Just an FYI that I changed the source here to be the original text issued from the Holy See. Copyright and the Holy See are complicated: in this case it was clearly protected, but some of the works of earlier Popes are not, and for this reason might be quoted on various websites on the internet.

Oh so that's what it means! I thought it was saying don't violate Wikipedia! Oops~ well I only abbreviate when in a hurry at least... ♠Dinah♠ 🎤 15:40, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

@Dinah Kirkland: haha, I was just saying that because on your Userpage it says not to abbreviate! You can do whatever you want :^) ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 15:50, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Si i remember putting that up awhile ago... geez I can't believe I didn't know what it meant and I'm supposed to be an Author!

Si I saw! Thanks for using it! ♠Dinah♠ 🎤 16:53, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

I'm not one to ask for help on these sort if things but one user seems like they follow my edits and just now reverted me AGAIN when this IP who originally put in the edits was revered by clue bot. When they put them back in I removed them again het this user states I didn't give a detailed edit summary that explained my edits or that I blanked the page. Could you help? It's getting on my nerves and on my TP it's in the section August 2017. I can't say anything to this user because they just remove my discussion on their talk page or don't reply to me on mine. I'm generally a nice person but this happens over and over again. And one time an IP edited a users TP so I removed it this user just put it back in and warned ME. ♠Dinah♠ 🎤 18:14, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

@Dinah Kirkland: I am looking into it right now ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 18:21, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Okay thanks. If I am wrong I will admit my mistakes and apologize for taking up your time. And I just figured out that this user I was trying help in taking the IP edit off just removed it ♠Dinah♠ 🎤 18:23, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you. Now I believe me and Theroadislong can get along better now. ♠Dinah♠ 🎤 18:59, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer granted

Hello El cid, el campeador. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.

  • URGENT: Please consider helping get the huge backlog down to a manageable number of pages as soon as possible.
  • Be nice to new users - they are often not aware of doing anything wrong.
  • You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted - be formal and polite in your approach to them too, even if they are not.
  • Don't review a page if you are not sure what to do. Just leave it for another reviewer.
  • Remember that quality is quintessential to good patrolling. Take your time to patrol each article, there is no rush. Use the message feature and offer basic advice.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. Alex ShihTalk 00:33, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

El articulo, Coleman Heating & Air Conditioning

Hi El Cid,

Thank you for the suggestion to add more refs to the new article: Coleman Heating & Air Conditioning. Per your suggestion, I've now added one more ref which new ref is independent. I've also tried to explain why I believe this article is worthy of a "keep," on the article's talk page.

Creative Leadership Page

Hi there, thank you for reviewing the Creative Leadership page and for your feedback. I haven't written a Wikipedia page in awhile so am a little rusty. How can I improve the page to avoid deletion? I did indeed read many articles to put it together (I haven't done any original research of my own). Looking forward to receiving your input! Thanks so much lododo —Preceding undated comment added 08:49, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

  • @Lododo: Hey! First, for your own benefit, you CAN remove Proposed deletions, even from pages you created. It is true that you CANNOT do so if it is a speedy deletion or a deletion discussion, but you can in this situation. Second, thanks for checking in with me! It shows that you want to make a good article. So while I always (95% of the time) assume good faith, now I can be confident in good faith.

But, let's see. I removed PROD, so don't worry about deletion. It's hard for me to conceptualize how the tone appears unencyclopedic. It's really just as though it is manual on leadership or a presentation at a conference, rather than an article in an encyclopedia. Instead of advocating or supporting the information, just attempt to just state it, objectively. Honestly, I also think it would be an improvement to delete the lists of themes and just summarize them in text.

Example: Instead of Creative leadership is a philosophy and style of leadership that involves leading a group to a novel and innovative outcome. Creative leaders display behaviors that may contradict traditional management styles. [1] Creative leadership rejects the premise of creativity as the act of a lone genius,[2] and is instead based on the premise that innovation emerges from a group of individuals, particularly in conditions that promote creativity. In addition to relying on creative contributions from individuals, creative leaders provide supportive contributions: psychological, material, and/or social supports that trigger, enable, and sustain creative thinking in others.[3]

The tone should be closer to

Creative leadership is a style of leadership based upon the concept of working cooperatively to develop innovative ideas. Those who employ creative leadership tend to do so by creating conditions which promote creativity, often using their own contributions as an example.

Does that make sense? I'm saying you have to do a total rewrite, but just try to fix the tone, if that makes sense. Does it? Thanks :o) ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 13:42, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

  • @El cid, el campeador: Thank you for your reply! That's helpful feedback, I think I'll be able to make those changes to the tone. I'll go through in the next couple of days and work on the phrasing for a more encyclopedic style. I'll also change the way those themes are presented as well; I had looked at other leadership pages and saw lists like that so thought they would strengthen the article but sounds like they had the opposite effect. If you have some time for it, would it be okay if I send you a note when I've made the changes and you can have another look with your critical eye and let me know if anything else needs improvement? Thanks again for your response- I am slowly but steadily learning what it takes to be good Wikipedia editor! lododo comment added 10:03, 19 August 2017
  • @El cid, el campeador: Hi there, I've made some changes to the creative leadership page. Would you be able to have a look and let me know if there's anything else I can improve?

Review these pages

Hello User:El_cid,_el_campeador, please review these 2 pages

Thanku Bhattacharya57 (talk) 15:34, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

Thanks User:El_cid,_el_campeador, for your review, please review these articles if u can

Thank you Bhattacharya57 (talk) 16:59, 18 August 2017 (UTC)

@Bhattacharya57 and Nayanhalder57: Hello! My concerns are: the articles are very short; they do not provide reliable references; and they may not be independently notable. My recommendation is to add the content from these articles into the article on the city they are located in. That is likely the best place to put information on these places - and even better, it will be in a central location (the city's article) where people can see everything at once, and learn more about the city, etc. Having separate articles for minor places in the city just makes it less likely readers will find out about the city. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 17:34, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
