User:Hkettani again

Hi Jreferee. After six weeks, the user is back again, replacing vast swaths of content with material sourced to himself and containing multiple errors of grammar, punctuation, style, etc. I have no wish to insert myself into the situation again and be accused of god knows what, and I actually have no firm opinion on the proprieties in this case (I've seen no CV links this time), although another user—and a perceptive one at that—has questioned it. I do think there may be some moderate WP:COMPETENCE issues. In any event, I'm planning to stay well out of it this time, but since you did some helpful intervention at COIN and on the user's talk page last month, I wanted you to be aware. Rivertorch (talk) 06:05, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

I've just posted a response to Hkettani's reply to my earlier post (see [1]), but I see that meanwhile Hkettani has restored the material. Hkettani's CV [2] (which he had been plastering over articles earlier) makes clear that his expertise is in computer science - and that there is no reason to see his self-published book on The World Muslim Population... as WP:RS, even if we were to settle the obvious WP:COI issues. It clearly cannot be cited, and something clearly needs to be done. I would suggest that maybe someone should revert Hkettani one last time, and then take it to WP:ANI if he doesn't get the message. Since I don't want to get involved in an edit war, I'd prefer not to have to revert the material again myself. AndyTheGrump (talk) 06:16, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
Given Hkettani's latest reply on his talk page, I can see no option but to raise this at WP:ANI - I'll leave it until later though, as I should have gone to bed hours ago. If someone else wishes to deal with it though, that will be fine by me. AndyTheGrump (talk) 06:25, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
The book is not self-published per WP definition of Self-publishing (and all definitions I know!) So try another one, or better, make the article better as volunteer editors. I have posted this to Wikipedia:Administrators'_noticeboard/Incidents Please continue the discussion there to resolve the problem: I am trying to contribute to history and size of population of Muslims in articles such as Islam in Asia. I have several peer-reviewed articles in scientific conference proceedings and journals and a recent 600 page book [3]. So I added some results in Islam in Asia and other continent and cited by book. Interestingly, some editors such as AndyTheGrump, Jreferee and Dolescum keep reverting my contribution (basically deleting all of it and the source). They keep citing COI or self-publishing, none of which applies here. When I refute their allegations they come up with another excuse and keep threatening of blocking my account. Such "referees" or "editors" may have other motives that they are not disclosing. The job of an editor or contributor is to make the article better, not deleting all sources and information. Better means: checking facts, better reference, etc. Hkettani (talk) 17:01, 23 November 2013 (UTC)
  • Self-citations are allowed per Wikipedia:SELFCITE#Citing_yourself. May be mis-understanding is promoting such ill-informed editors to go to war! Someone needs to stop this as it degrades the content of articles. Experts like me will not put up with this and will give up easily (they are busy doing real research and real publications). However, bloggers and those who know less, in the long term will control the quality and content of WP articles. Something that no one wants for WP. Hkettani (talk) 17:44, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

Al (Allen) Schwartz

Hi, Jreferee! At the discussion Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Al (Allen) Schwartz, you made an excellent suggestion about how the article titles for people named Al Schwartz should be redone. That discussion has now been closed. Would you be willing to implement your title change suggestions at this point? I would do it, but I think some of the changes will require admin tools and I'm not an admin. Thanks. --MelanieN (talk) 17:12, 23 November 2013 (UTC)

Request for a second round of feedback - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Bhargav_Sri_Prakash

Hi Jreferee, I greatly appreciate the suggestion about reworking the references. Per your earlier advice, I have looked through Template:Citation and have deleted many of the references and have reworked the significant references that I thought established notability per WP:REFBEGIN. I felt that the article about Mr Bhargav Sri Prakash by Bloomberg News established his notability the most and have therefore added it as the first reference. Does the ordering of the references make a difference? I am asking because many things about about him have been reported on multiple independent online sources on US and Indian media but I am not sure if the order of the references should follow a prescribed standard of priority. For example, his first company has been reported by Bloomberg News and by Kauffman Foundation and both to me are reputable sources. Would you please take another look and let me know how I am doing with the article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Bhargav_Sri_Prakash Thank you again for your patient feedback/advice as I am still learning my way around editing articles!

Geoff Morrell

Hi Jreferee. My name is Arturo and I work for BP. I am the company's official representative here on Wikipedia and I am looking for help with a BP-related article that I thought you might be interested in. Perhaps you've seen my message on the Wikiproject Biography talk page? If you haven't seen the request, I'm looking for someone who can help make a few updates to the Geoff Morrell (spokesperson) article. I saw your name on the list of members of the Wikiproject and based on your comment there about having a soft spot for people who edit their own biographies I thought you would be a good editor to ask.

I would like to be clear, I have never directly edited any Wikipedia articles and, to my knowledge, Geoff has never edited his own article. I only work on Wikipedia via talk pages. Still, I'm assuming you're well versed in the mistakes people make when they edit their own articles and I thought your review of my request would be valuable. The main request is on the article's talk page. I hope you'll have a moment to look at it. Thanks. Arturo at BP (talk) 15:47, 11 December 2013 (UTC)

Rough consensus

Hi Jreferee. I see what you've written at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Wikipedia:Rough consensus. I haven't completely digested it, but you seem to have a good proposal for action. What I don't understand is why a formal deletion is needed. Is it? The delete but preserve notion confuses me.

[8] null edit: I won't shed any tears over a block. Tears should be shed, however, over the fact that Wikipedia is permanently broken due to the miserable failure of editors such as yourself to remove partisan garbage from articles

Thermette

Thanks for your edit to Benghazi burner, however a quick Google search seems to show that "Thermette" was the brand name of a device also called a Kelly kettle - your own link describes it. These were issued to New Zealand troops in the Desert Campaign and acquired various "Benghazi" nicknames, but it's quite different to the improvised petrol burner. I have included a link to the "Kelly kettle" article in the "See also" section. I hope that you agree with my conclusions. Alansplodge (talk) 12:45, 3 January 2014 (UTC)

I'm sorry for the delay to the copy-editing. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 07:36, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Template:HD

Hi Jreferee, I saw your post on the help desk re Template:HD. Was curious--how do you and how would others typically implement these templates? That is, do you guys access the Template overview and copy/paste the one you want, or are you using some sort of utility a la Twinkle to select the appropriate template? I use Twinkle, but it doesn't do everything, and I'm trying to make my life a little easier. Thanks! (I'll watch your talk page in case you want to reply here).

Ballentine, Mississippi

Hi there, I see the info you added to Ballentine about William Pride was reverted. I came across Ballentine yesterday, and only noticed it because the town's name was wrong. I tried to find something to add to the article but found nothing. Your addition seemed to relate to the town in a sort-of "local boy makes good" way. It's noteworthy info. I hate to see it wasted.

Shelby Can-Am

You should not confuse Peter Brock with Pete Brock. They both raced at roughly the same time but on different continents. --Falcadore (talk) 19:08, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

My blog post on your MaraDNS deletion nomination

Last year, I posted a blog entry about the MaraDNS deletion discussion (the discussion closed with a unanimous “keep” consensus; I don’t blame you for not spending three hours looking for references establishing notability) from April of 2013. Now that I am (for who knows how long) an active editor again, I would like to point you to the article:

http://samiam.org/blog/20130420.html#Why_did_they_try_to_delete_the_MaraDNS_article

Do you feel this off-wiki blog entry fairly represents the nomination you made last year to delete the MaraDNS article?

Thank you for your time.
