Speedy deletion nomination of Avera Mengistu

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 Avera Mengistu, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

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 "Click here to 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.

WP:ARBPIA3#500/30

Another editor asked you a question at Talk:Breaking the Silence (non-governmental organization)#BtS or Breaking the Silence. I recommend you reply. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 20:53, 16 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your account does not meet the requirements to edit in the Arab-Israeli topic area. Please do not continue to do so until you have met those requirements or you may be reported and potentially blocked. Thank you. nableezy - 12:14, 18 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

WP:ARBPIA notice

This message contains important information about an administrative situation on Wikipedia. It does not imply any misconduct regarding your own contributions to date.

Please carefully read this information:

The Arbitration Committee has authorised discretionary sanctions to be used for pages regarding the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic which you have edited. The Committee's decision is here.

Discretionary sanctions is a system of conduct regulation designed to minimize disruption to controversial topics.

This wiki page barely mentions Palestinians.Kigelim (talk) 05:45, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The second sentence of Tikun Olam (blog) makes it clear that it is a topic covered by the discretionary sanctions, as does its talk page. Those restrictions are enforced strictly, so please desist. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 06:22, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Is this another Ashtul/Settleman sockpuppet account? If so, it can't be used to edit Wikipedia. Sean.hoyland - talk 06:58, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

List of arduino boards in Wikidata

Hi, I see you are one of top three contributor in "List of Arduino boards and compatible systems" How about including List of Arduino boards in Wikidata?

This would let to structure all this information because we should be able to use propierties like these https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Wikidata:WikiProject_Objects.

Maybe would be good to add a new column in tables with the links to wikidata items like this https://tools.wmflabs.org/reasonator/?q=Q25814150 or create list directly from wikidata

I start creating some list examples:

Example : List of arduino official boards Here, using Wikidata Query Service is possible to query "items manufactured by Arduino LCC company" equivalent to said "offical arduino boards"
Example : List of arduino compatible boards Using Reasonator you can see all items that are instance of "Arduino Compatible board" item (source: Arduino-compatible_boards).
Example : List of arduino compatible shields Same as above but this time value for "instance of" is "Arduino Compatible Shield"(source: http://shieldlist.org/).

If you like, you can get more info in the WikiObject project proposal https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiObject.

Final warning

This is your final warning. You have been told repeatedly that you are not permitted to edit articles related to the Arab-Israeli conflict because of WP:ARBPIA3#500/30. Nevertheless, you continue to edit such articles.

You have been warned that your obsession with and hatred of Richard Silverstein is interfering with your ability to edit the encyclopedia in accordance with our policies concerning WP:NPOV and WP:BLP. Nevertheless, you continue to edit Tikun Olam (blog) with wanton disregard for neutrality.

The next time I see you doing either of these, I will report you and you are likely to lose your editing privileges. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 06:10, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MShabazz: You should read the whole sentence before deleting it. It reads "according to Silverstein, was an FBI specialist translating wiretaps from Israel's Washington embassy". If you look further, Leibowitz denies that fact. Who do you believe? I don't care but you can't state it as a fact! Please reply or revert. Kigelim (talk) 06:31, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MShabazz: Why would this article even be covered by WP:ARBPIA3#500/30?? 99% of it deals with Israel alone. The fact Silverstein support one side or another is irrelevant as you wrote "If you think Silverstein is notable, feel free to start an article about him. Until then, the article is about the Tikun Olam blog and only incidentally about Silverstein." Kigelim (talk) 06:40, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

First, read WP:ARBPIA3#500/30. It says "any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict." If you don't think Tikun Olam (blog) -- especially the section about Shamai Leibowitz -- is related to the Arab-Israeli conflict, please ask an administrator.

Second, I wrote that the problem with your edits to that article is neutrality. I noticed that you didn't bother to respond to that. You're also still hounding Silverstein on Wikipedia despite being told to leave him alone.

Kigelim, your behavior is unacceptable. As I wrote, keep it up and I will report you and you will be blocked. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 10:47, 19 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that KIgelim should not be editing the Tikun Olam article, per WP:ARBPIA3, but how is he "hounding" Silverstein on Wikipedia? Is Silverstein even editing here? Firkin Flying Fox (talk) 08:53, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I am. Look at my contributions page. I have been active on Wikipedia for years, though not as regularly as some.Richard Silverstein (talk) 06:39, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@MShabazz: My first edit was cut and clear making a previous edit more accurate. The article was not ABOUT THE BLOG but a story that involved the blog. Please don't tell me you don't see the difference. Then, moving Leibovitz out of the "reporting" section is very logical as that story was about the blog and the leak.

Next edit, while need a revision and moving the "according to Silverstein" after the FBI and before the translator, is once again accurate.

Last edit is sourced well.

I can't see a reason the delete any of them but one minor revision which you used as an excuse to delete all. Somehow, the original IP editor which added the NYT wasn't slamed with warnings about WP:ARBPIA3 threats but rather you have reverted it after its removal. Kigelim (talk) 14:50, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kigelim, please read WP:ARBPIA3#500/30. It applies to "any page that could be reasonably construed as being related to the Arab-Israeli conflict". Any page. As I wrote, If you don't believe Tikun Olam (blog) is "related to the Arab-Israeli conflict", please contact an administrator. She or he will set you straight. (Read the second sentence of the article, for god's sake!) There is nothing to discuss—the rule is clear—you are not permitted to edit Tikun Olam (blog). Period. — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 21:57, 22 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MShabazz: You asked me about neutrality and I answered. Now please refer constructively to the points I brought up. You had no issue with @91.193.51.64: edit which is completely inaccurate.Kigelim (talk) 04:49, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

You're mistaken. I didn't ask you about anything. — MShabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 10:43, 23 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@MShabazz: "Second, I wrote that the problem with your edits to that article is neutrality. I noticed that you didn't bother to respond to that." -sounds familiar?Kigelim (talk) 15:09, 24 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Note that the blogger in quesiton just personally attacked [1], and started a campaign to get his readers to queer an AfD Kigleim started. Why isn't the blogger [[User:Richards1052] blocked?E.M.Gregory (talk) 14:01, 22 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

July 2019

Hello. Your recent edit to Graph database appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. A passing one-sentence mention in another article is not sufficient to establish notability. GermanJoe (talk) 17:13, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@GermanJoe: The same can be said for DataStax but I don't see you remove it. I'm reverting your change and expect you to take it to the talk page if you feel like it. Kigelim (talk) 17:25, 16 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for July 18

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Document-oriented database, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Go and Python (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Help with materials about Redis

Hello, I saw your recent edits on Redis Modules. Can you help with it? RedisTimeSeries was just deleted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_series_database. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gkorland (talk • contribs) 08:18, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Gkorland: You always have to provide an WP:RS for facts otherwise it is considered WP:OR. Kigelim (talk) 17:12, 23 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Time series database

Hello Kigelim, please see WP:RS for Wikipedia's requirements regarding reliable sources. Wikipedia is no PR platform to promote startups and niche products. Please make sure that entries have had sufficient coverage in independent, credible sources before you add them (not just branche-internal advertorials and "Top 25" gossip). Thank you for your consideration. GermanJoe (talk) 08:00, 23 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. The contributions being made are not appropriate for this article, but for more reasons than may be realized. GermanJoe, you may not have noticed the solicitation request made immediately above this section within the user's talk page. Gkorland is Guy Korland, a senior employee of Redis Labs. You previously warned Gkorland about his COI on his talk page. Appears Gkorland has publicly solicited the help of Kigelim to get Redis added to the page. Proof available on (talk).

TLDR: This user appears to have a potential conflict of interest as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gaimrox (talk • contribs) 04:46, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@GermanJoe: I disagree. As soon as asoftware gets coverage from an WP:RS there is no logical reason to leave it out. Some of the software included are probably not supported by now. Redis Time Series is mention in a book. What else do you need? Kigelim (talk) 17:47, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Forbes contributor articles are generally not considered reliable on Wikipedia (as opposed to Forbes staff articles), see also WP:RSP. In this specific case, the author is a marketing specialist just repeating company talking points fresh from the product developers' own press releases and documentations. This is at best an opinion piece, but not a reliable source to assess a company's or product's notability. Editors should be cautious when using branche-internal and marketing-focussed sources - companies clearly have a vested interest in promoting their products here on Wikipedia. The only effective hurdle to limit advertising is to insist on non-promotional, reliable sources and/or an existing stand-alone article for such lists. I'll remove the entry per WP:BRD pending further discussion on article talk or a better source. I'd be glad to discuss this issue or other disagreements on article talk when needed. Thank you for taking the time to discuss this. GermanJoe (talk) 18:54, 25 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
