Images needing articles
How about entering the much-respected and highly admired area of content creation? Would you be interested in starting one of these articles?
Please let me know if you need any help. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 01:14, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Anna Frodesiak: Absolutely, we can work on a few together if you wish. --JustBerry (talk) 01:28, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Colourbox Ian robbins
Hello, I knew of Ian Robbins death as Martyn Young told me ( ha actually died in Steven Youngs house). I have found online evidence here https://www.funeralzone.co.uk/obituaries/1192 Richard Anvil (talk) 18:09, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Richard Anvil: Thanks for reaching out. Your edits here appear to be unsourced. Please read through the introduction of Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons. The source above seems fine; you can follow the steps [Help:Referencing_for_beginners#Inserting_a_reference here] to insert the citation. Also, terms, such as "sadly," is not encyclopedic; it can be interpreted as Wikipedia:What_Wikipedia_is_not#Wikipedia_is_not_a_publisher_of_original_thought. --JustBerry (talk) 18:21, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
Also as to Martyn Young's involvement on the Modern English new album again he told me as I met him and the band last month. I run the official band endorsed Modern English fan forum and mentioned this on the site http://imeltwithyou.proboards.com/thread/250/new-modern-english-album-update the band so far have not posted up any details to verify this on their pledge site on the new album but this will be made public. I have photo's of Martyn sat at the mixing desk. Richard Anvil (talk) 18:22, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Sorry, it was an error. Thanks. It will not pass again. It just was an error of edition. The page is mine or it is part of my project. Thank you.
--Siredejoinville (talk) 22:31, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Siredejoinville: Ah, no problems. We're all human - mistakes happen. However, if you need a project space, I would recommend that you use your sandbox. --JustBerry (talk) 22:34, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
Elm park
Hi
Yes I did intend to remove a reference in Elm park. That was because the building mentioned has been demolished and replaced with a block of four flats.

- @RobertW1971: Do you have a reference for that? Please see WP:Verifiability. --JustBerry (talk) 02:28, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
Penny (Australian)
I have collected some more information about pennies including the fact that one has just been auctioned off just a few weeks ago. Can you please add them in? That would be great. [1]
Thealst (talk) 03:15, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Thealst: Thanks for stopping by, although I'm not quite sure what you're asking me to do here. It appears that you may be referring to this. If so, please don't be mistaken - you're welcome to add any content you wish to the article itself. Just be mindful, however, that providing reliable sources and inline citations are important for verifiability purposes, i.e. the validity of your statements can be verified. Let me know if you have any questions, comments, or concerns. --JustBerry (talk) 03:20, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
References
Jahn Cernăuți
Can you accept my article : Jahn Cernăuți. It is ready for main page. Thanks--Alexiulian25 (talk) 22:04, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Alexiulian25: Shopping for AfC reviewers isn't the answer. The only edit I see after the last decline is this. Please review the comments from other editors prior to making another AfC submission. It seems as though the subject you're trying to write about may not be notable enough for the mainspace in the first place. See WP:Notability for more information. --JustBerry (talk) 22:12, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
It was injust declined. It had 10 References ! It is a small old team, you can not find more information about it, and also Romanian and German wikipedia also have this page, with same amount of information .... English wikipedia should have more then German wikipedia, more people can view and read, is the International Language, thats why I edit in English and not Romanian.--Alexiulian25 (talk) 22:17, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Alexiulian25: Did you see GiantSnowman's comment on the article draft page? It doesn't appear that the team has played in a national cup competition or a tournament/achievement of the like. @SwisterTwister and Onel5969: Pinging previous AfC reviewers to discussion. --JustBerry (talk) 22:20, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
Here is the proof. This pages are not created by me, but you can see it clearly how close they was to the final.-- Alexiulian25 (talk) 22:28, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- Hi. I am not commenting on the team's notability. This was the last football article I reviewed based on notability. I'll leave that to folks interested in the football (soccer) project. I will say, that in its current form, the article still lacks a great deal of inline citations to back up the claims. adding 5 citations after the last sentence does not make it better. That's my .02. Onel5969 TT me 23:09, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- @JustBerry, SwisterTwister, and Onel5969: I'd say playing in the Divizia A, the top-level club competition, is notable. The article needs to make that clearer. It's not very well written. GiantSnowman 06:57, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
Heston
Hi there! I did indeed remove the copy you mentioned. Reason being, it is incredibly long, waffly and adds nothing to the piece. I can't be bothered getting into an edit war about it but do you think all that crap is really necessary?! --82.41.251.96 (talk) 12:57, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- @82.41.251.96: I'm not quite sure what you're referring to. Are you referring to this? If so, thanks for adding the source. --JustBerry (talk) 13:01, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
Image of Jordan Garavis
Note to talk page stalkers: this conversation was started by myself here instead of the article talk page to ensure that the discussion is resolved. Discussion will be moved to article talk page upon completion.
@Stemoc and Dale cooper87: I recently came across an article using an image you uploaded. It appears that it has been used in Devon Graye articles across multiple wikis; however, Dale cooper87 removed the infobox with the image here, as they claim that the image is incorrect. Would you mind justifying your addition of the image here that you also uploaded on Wikimedia Commons? --JustBerry (talk) 12:37, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
Comment: I have restored the infobox and do not plan to remove the image yet until receipt of at least one response from either party. --JustBerry (talk) 12:39, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- that is Devon Graye, if you look at the full picture, Jordan Garavis is standing on the left of the picture..--Stemoc 17:16, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Stemoc: Ah, okay. @Dale cooper87: Any explanation for your removal of the picture? --JustBerry (talk) 17:40, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- that is Devon Graye, if you look at the full picture, Jordan Garavis is standing on the left of the picture..--Stemoc 17:16, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
Vandalism
I don't believe this is vandalism. May you explain how it is? Thanks. Prhdbt (talk) 21:09, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

- Ah, I see. Just a little error. Nothing to worry about then. Prhdbt (talk) 21:15, 19 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Prhdbt: Yup, no worries. Thanks for letting me know, though. --JustBerry (talk) 21:18, 19 October 2015 (UTC)

Edited the tone of Article as suggested - want to resubmit
I have edited the tone of the article you reviewed and declined (for submission).
You commented "From the introduction, the tone of your writing appears to be somewhat similar to that of an advertisement" I looked at the whole article again and edited the tone. I would like to resubmit it again - but would like an opinion before i do that.
Lukehaokip (talk) 18:21, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Lukehaokip: I certainly commend the edits you have made; it seems like you have made some substantial changes to the article to make the tone more neutral. For now, I would encourage that you re-submit the article, and most likely another editor will come by and take a closer look at your article. --JustBerry (talk) 19:01, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
JustBerry Thank you! One question - you had inserted a comment at the top of the article. Should I delete that before I re-submit the article -or- let it remain there and re-submit. Lukehaokip (talk) 19:58, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Lukehaokip: You should let it remain there and re-submit it. Don't worry, it shouldn't go against accepting your article; if anything, editors will appreciate your efforts in improving the article and acknowledging the comments of previous editors. Happy editing! --JustBerry (talk) 21:07, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
JustBerry One last question. If the re-submission is accepted. Will the comment be removed by the editor. Thanks in advance :)
Lukehaokip (talk) 18:22, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Lukehaokip: Since accepted AfC articles are moved to the mainspace, yes. --JustBerry (talk) 18:58, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
JustBerry Thank you! Lukehaokip (talk) 01:20, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Lukehaokip: No problem at all! Please don't hesitate to reach out if you need anything else or have any other questions for me. --JustBerry (talk) 23:47, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
A bit busy these weeks
Regarding this, in all honesty I am fairly busy for the next few weeks. I do have your talk page on my watchlist but I am not actively looking over what you are doing. I can't promise any sort of in depth review any time soon. This page seems to be getting a lot less complaints though so things seem better at first glance. Have a good day. HighInBC 16:17, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
- @HighInBC: I understand. Thanks for stopping by. --JustBerry (talk) 18:09, 25 October 2015 (UTC)
Ping-able
You made an implication [1] at WP:RFA/Yamaguchi先生, that spurred my curiosity. If the doppelganger account of a user that redirects to the users actual account is pinged, is the ping forwarded to the latter mentioned account? I was under the impression that it was not. Perhaps I'm drawing too much from your statement, in the sense of what it would resolve. Regards,—Godsy(TALKCONT) 20:26, 31 October 2015 (UTC)
- @Godsy: Perhaps that might be correct. However, a username change could be an alternative solution to the issue. My point is that (a) to my knowledge, there doesn't appear to be any concrete evidence or past experiences with the user suggesting the username itself to be an issue and (b) it seems like a fairly weak reason to oppose. On that note, I'm trying to see if the user has any other reasons for opposing. --JustBerry (talk) 22:58, 1 November 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for your comment about my change to the article on Janet Cooke. I've now provided a source and put my change back into the article. 50.46.246.105 (talk) 22:19, 10 November 2015 (UTC)
Help needed at DRN
You are receiving this message because you are signed up as a volunteer at the Dispute Resolution Noticeboard. We have a number of pending requests which need a volunteer to address them. Unless you are an inexperienced volunteer who is currently just watching DRN to learn our processes, please take a case. If you do not see yourself taking cases in the foreseeable future, please remove yourself from the volunteer list so that we can have a better idea of the size of our pool of volunteers; if you do see yourself taking cases, please watchlist the DRN page and keep an eye out to see if there are cases which are ready for a volunteer. We have recently had to refuse a number of cases because they were listed for days with no volunteer willing to take them, despite there being almost 150 volunteers listed on the volunteer page.

DRN Coordinator position
JB, I note that you've not had an edit to DRN since October 11. You're signed up to take over the Coordinator position for four months beginning in 14 days from now. Are you still interested in doing so? If so, it would be good if you were to put in some edits there over the next couple of weeks; if not, it would be well if you would remove your request for the position so someone else can sign up. Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 19:28, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

My edit on the Evans High School Page
3 months ago, you removed my edit concerning the athletic conference of Evans High school. I would like to know why you don't consider it constructive. By providing the athletic conference, I have helped the reader to find out about the sports teams, and providing the athletic conference gives a good gauge of the school size. please explain to me why you removed my edit!

DRN help needed and volunteer roll call
You are receiving this message because you have listed yourself on the list of volunteers at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/Volunteering#List of the DRN volunteers.
First, assistance is needed at DRN. We have recently closed a number of cases without any services being provided for lack of a volunteer willing to take the case. There are at least three cases awaiting a volunteer at this moment. Please consider taking one.
Second, this is a volunteer roll call. If you remain interested in helping at DRN and are willing to actively do so by taking at least one case (and seeing it through) or helping with administrative matters at least once per calendar month, please add your name to this roll call list. Individuals currently on the principal volunteer list who do not add their name on the roll call list will be removed from the principal volunteer list after June 30, 2016 unless the DRN Coordinator chooses to retain their name for the best interest of DRN or the encyclopedia. Individuals whose names are removed after June 30, 2016, should feel free to re-add their names to the principal volunteer list, but are respectfully requested not to do so unless they are willing to take part at DRN at least one time per month as noted above. No one is going to be monitoring to see if you live up to that commitment, but we respectfully ask that you either live up to it or remove your name from the principal volunteer list.

Recent edit to Roman Empire: Reign of Blood
There is no POV at all. It is a factual statement about that film. It is heavily fictionalized. This is not an opinion. A simple reading of the page will tell you that. As I pointed out on the page, just listing "Gladiator" doesn't tell anyone what the heck it is or how it relates to the series being discussed. Context is valuable and improves the article. You can alter the wording if it seems too "harsh" (remove "heavily" or something like that), but I don't see how an article with less information is better than an article with more. 24.149.37.233 (talk) 01:44, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
- @24.149.37.233: I've looked back at your contribution. I agree, some context does need to be provided. As per your agreement above, I've made the following diff, though [3]. The word "heavily," although may be true in description, sounds somewhat like a criticism, as fictionalized already conveys the point about the film not be historically true. --JustBerry (talk) 03:07, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

December 2016
Hello JustBerry. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know, however, that there is consensus that we shouldn't tag pages as lacking context (CSD A1) and/or content (CSD A3) moments after they are created, as you did at 2016 December Instambul bombing. It is also suggested that pages that might meet CSD A7 criteria not be tagged for deletion immediately after they are created. It's usually best to wait at least 10–15 minutes for more content to be added if the page is very short, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Tagging such pages in a very short space of time may drive away well-meaning contributors, which is not good for Wikipedia. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), copyright violations (G12) and pure vandalism/blatant hoaxes (G3) should of course still be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks. {MordeKyle} ☢ 20:18, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
- @MordeKyle: I appreciate your message. However, the article is a duplicate of December_2016_Istanbul_bombings. I believe C.Fred has just made the page referenced in your previous message a redirect. --JustBerry (talk) 20:20, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
- You are correct. However, your initial request for speedy deletion was for CSD A1 approximately 1 minute after it's creation. Thanks. {MordeKyle} ☢ 20:23, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
- @MordeKyle: I understand. Thanks for watching out. --JustBerry (talk) 20:25, 10 December 2016 (UTC)

@Philip J Fry: Hey Philip, sorry to ping you to my talk page, rather than leaving a message on your talk page.

Edit
This was not a minor edit[4]? Best Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 05:58, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Doc James: Took a quick look; I agree. Switched from STiki to Huggle today; after checking over the preferences/settings a few times, not sure where exactly that would be changed. Let me look at the revert more closely, though, and get back to you. Sorry about that. --JustBerry (talk) 06:01, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
- No worries. Not the greatest edit but not to bad. Still needs work.
- Removed this aswell[5] Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:03, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Doc James: Regarding the minor edit classifications made by WP:Huggle, I've just made a ticket on Phabricator. Regarding the revert, though, the issue I had was that the user had removed a handful of references and content without explaining the removal in the edit summary. Regarding the warning, if you feel that you can resolve the content issues and feel as though the content removal is justified, removing the warning is fine by me. Keep me posted. --JustBerry (talk) 06:09, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
- Looks like they added a fair number of references? They removed one? Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 06:13, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I'm User:Sis1914. Thank you for patrolling the pages. In response to the message you left on my talk page Sis1914 (talk), I revised the edits with a more detailed edit summary. Briefly, the original content had two lists with multiple inaccuracies: 1) The two lists contradicted each other in data 2) First list had no citation. The current revision has been cross-checked and referenced by 8 sources. Please feel free to examine them. Thank you! Sis1914 (talk) 23:53, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
- Thank you for reaching out. I certainly appreciate your dedication to maintaining the verifiability of information you add to articles by actively citing sources. Looks fine now. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions, comments, concerns, need advice, etc. --JustBerry (talk) 00:03, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

adminably yours (mover rights)
hello JustBerry, I see you're the Elsevier person. I have an unrelated request: years ago I could move pages, but now apparently I cannot. Can you pls move File:PeoplesWar Sept1944.jpeg to File:PeoplesWar Sept1943.jpeg for the uncontroversial reason of typo in file name (wrong year)? And if you can give me page-mover rights (which I will use rarely if ever, but it's very nice to have them when I need them.. forex I had to request another image page move for a similar reason a couple months ago), then that would be mahvellous. Tks! Lingzhi ♦ (talk) 04:00, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Lingzhi: Thanks for reaching out--are you considering requesting access to Elsevier? Regarding your requests, you can request file moves following these guidelines: Wikipedia:Moving_a_page#Moving_a_file_page. Also, you can request file mover rights here: Wikipedia:Requests_for_permissions/File_mover. Before requesting file mover rights, though, I would advise you to peruse through Wikipedia:File_mover if you have not already and evaluate how much you have been involved in dealing with files on Wikipedia thus far. Hope that helped. --JustBerry (talk) 04:19, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- I believe I allegedly already have access to Elsevier... as for being involved in moving pages, I am not and never will be, but it's a HUGE pain in the ass to make requests and sit for weeks waiting for someone to do it just because some assholes were page mover vandals. I am not a page mover vandal. Been here 10 years etc etc etc etc. Lingzhi ♦ (talk) 04:25, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Lingzhi: Ah, I see. Do you feel you have the resources you need now that you have had access to Elsevier? I would certainly like to receive feedback on your experience with the database thus far. Your page move seems to mainly qualify under WP:FNC#5 (but also under WP:FNC#1 as well technically speaking). Throw up a rename media template? --JustBerry (talk) 04:38, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Lingzhi: Anyhow, the move is done--FYI. File:PeoplesWar Sept1944.jpeg redirects to File:PeoplesWar Sept1943.jpeg. Have a great day! --JustBerry (talk) 04:42, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- My memories of Elsevier are vague. I have access to several databases. I seem to recall... vaguely... that Elsevier might be the one that I could never log in to, but then Nikkimaria played with it for a while and explained the glitch to me. Or maybe Elsevier is the one that didn't respond to my request for months and months... or was that Cambridge... I get them confused... anyhow, JSTOR has worked by far the best for me. If you're actually wanna know my Elsevier experience, it would take me 10 seconds to search my emails...Oh, OK, it looks like Elsevier is the "didn't reply for months" one. Cheers!

Unfortunately, there wasn't any right way to deal with that issue. You advised the filing party to go to the copyright noticeboard, which, in general, was reasonable advice. However, the problem is that the copyright noticeboard is for filing reports by a reporting party, not for filing a defense by the alleged copyright violating party. The filing party at DRN was the alleged copyright violating party. Db54 had posted material from a "public document", which may or may not have been a public domain document, and Garchy had reverted their edit and warned them, and Db54 was complaining at DRN. Thank you for closing that, because it was badly filed and was a mess. However, there is no right advice, other than for the filing party to stop complaining and discuss with the reporting party. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:17, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: Can't the alleged copyright violating party file a case at the copyright noticeboard to resolve the issue in the spirit of User:Garchy (as xis revert implies disagreement/conflict which User:Db54 is seeking some closure on)? --JustBerry (talk) 20:20, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
- I suppose that they could if they wanted to be reasonable. However, that has its own problems. First, they would actually have to show that the public document was in the public domain, rather than just saying that (and most printed material in the United States now is copyrighted even if it isn't labeled as copyrighted). Second, in that time, they could, instead, rewrite the material. Yes, if it really were public domain, they could resolve it by filing, but I don't think it really is public domain. Robert McClenon (talk) 20:37, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: Neither do I, but (in handling the case) I was more referring to the scope of DRN in my general close note than the actual content of the dispute. --JustBerry (talk) 20:40, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
- Agreed, if you are saying that copyright issues are out of scope for DRN. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:33, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Deletion
Thank you for dealing with the Ed Brown dispute. Your efforts are appreciated. However, DRN was the wrong forum for two reasons, not just one. First, as you noted, it was forum shopping. Second, because another editor had made a typo in their instructions to the filing party, they should not have been at DRN at all, but at DRV. DRN doesn't deal with cases when there is another forum available, and so, among other things, we don't deal with deletion, which should go to deletion review, which is what another editor meant to advise. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:14, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: Thanks for clarifying that. However, please make that clear in your opening statement next time (I was not aware of the typo/DRV proposal given by someone else). I didn't propose DRV yet because of the ANI listing. Let the ANI case finish its course first at least. --JustBerry (talk) 18:43, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- Okay. The typo only became clear to me after further checking on the talk pages of the participants. Requests and complaints concerning deletion are something that we get from time to time at DRN, and we close them as the wrong forum (in this case, wrong forum and also at ANI). When cases are filed at DRN that should be somewhere else, we should redirect them as soon as possible, not wait for ANI (which sometimes runs for a long time, especially when a tendentious editor keeps adding to it in order to demand administrative attention (and maybe the only administrative attention is a boomerang) ). Robert McClenon (talk) 18:56, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: Thanks for looking into the talk pages and such to provide some context as to what had happened. I thought that perhaps you had known about the typo ahead of time and had just forgotten to mention that in the opening statements. Although I'm aware of the wrong forum issue, I figured that issues at ANI should finish their course there prior to providing any other suggestions. I have heeded your note regarding not waiting for ANI discussions to close. I checked the case; your closing rationale seems spot on--great work! --JustBerry (talk) 19:04, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- User:JustBerry - Unfortunately, what we have here is two editors, an experienced editor and an inexperienced editor, who do not like each other. There is a mechanism that is nominally available for such cases, two-way interaction bans. However, interaction bans do not work well, because they typically result in baiting, in which one of the editors gets close to the edge and tries to provoke the other one to crossing it. Robert McClenon (talk) 19:12, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: I saw your note on that in the case as well. DRV or riding out ANI seem to be the viable options for now. --JustBerry (talk) 19:14, 28 December 2016 (UTC)

Deletion Review
By the way, in general, issues concerning the decisions taken at Articles for Deletion can be discussed at deletion review. However, in the specific case, it doesn't really matter because unregistered editors are seldom given any significant weight in deletion discussions. Robert McClenon (talk) 06:07, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon: Thanks for stopping by, but as you mentioned, the main reason why I hadn't suggested that was because unregistered editors are not usually given substantial weight there. Since the user already appeared frustrated with the AfD process, I figured coordinating further disagreement with the deleting admin--one person, rather than a discussion space in which their voice may get overridden--may be a workable option to mediate their frustration or concerns associated with the article's deletion. --JustBerry (talk) 06:12, 22 December 2016 (UTC)
Garage punk article dispute
For the sake of being more concise, I went back and trimmed my remarks in section #4 at the dispute resolution noticeboard (I hadn't earlier seen the two-sentence limit). Working within that limit, I'm not sure if my present remarks will be able to adequately convey my thoughts or be able to show the changes I'd like to see (I hope that people will read the upper columns of the thread to get a better picture). I should probably go into the garage punk article myself and make a few changes, and then people could give me feedback. I'm now reluctant to do that, because, though I have been involved in the article for a longer time than the other party, I don't want to engage in edit warring--that is why I made the request for dispute resolution. I'm sorry that this whole thing is so complex, I wish there was a simpler way to say it. Garagepunk66 (talk) 12:26, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
