Hello, I'm GiantSnowman. An edit that you recently made to Alex Iwobi seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Giant Snowman 13:23, 17 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

July 2018

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Daniel Itodo, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Giant Snowman 07:36, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Daniel Itodo.

The sources either do not confirm what you want them to confirm, or they relate to another person. Please stop adding them. Giant Snowman 12:02, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

oops!! I am sorry. I did not intend to vandalise Wikipedia. I was only trying to clear Wikipedia of misleading content. Thanks. Nauteeq (talk) 12:20, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Given that you are new here and struggling to find a way, maybe you should post your ideas/sources on to the article talk page (Talk:Daniel Itodo) and I can review them and include any which are suitable? Giant Snowman 12:46, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much, GiantSnowman. I would do as you recommended. Nauteeq (talk) 13:04, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

References

Thanks, Snowman. I would find references and add it to the article. Nauteeq (talk) 20:16, 17 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Transfermarkt is not a reliable source. Giant Snowman 08:42, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Snowman, the information and the references in the Daniel Itodo post all refer to the player. He is registered as Daniel James with CAF & the NPFL as that with the jersey name "Itodo". Itodo is a middle name that became more popular because of fans preference. Please, you have deleted the edits in error. Nauteeq (talk) 11:41, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Skalid Obi

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 Skalid Obi, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may 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, person, or point of view 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/Organizations 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 deleted 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. - FitIndia ^{Talk Admin on Commons} 19:22, 20 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion of Fisayo Soyombo

The article Fisayo Soyombo has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

BLP with fundamental WP:NPOV issues throughout.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Big Cabal Media moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Big Cabal Media, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Celestina007 (talk) 00:33, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i've cleaned the drafts up and only left verifiable claims on it. Nauteeq (talk) 08:42, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

COI DISCUSSION

Please could you explain this? Why are you creating a promotional article for an organization that doesn’t meet NCORP? Celestina007 (talk) 00:38, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the notability of the organisation, I found a lot of secondary sources for the claims in the article and it as at 21h00wat, I'd removed elements that sound promotional from the article. I'm also going to review again to remove statements that I can't find sufficient secondary references for.@Celestina007 thank you. Nauteeq (talk) 07:49, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- I am afraid I do not see even as little as two reliable sources in that article. Could you be so kind as to show what sources you are seeing that I’m failing to? Celestina007 (talk) 14:03, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  I think your and my understanding of reliable Nigerian sources might be the issue here. For example, TechCrunch, TechPoint, Nairametrics, Quartz, New Telegraph and Channels TV are considered reliable news sources. Yes, I might have a little idea about why you might have a different view about this, but if we're to look at the criteria that qualify media houses as reliable, I doubt any Nigerian media house can qualify as reliable.
  
  I sincerely want to know why you don't consider these platforms as reliable as it'd help me know whether to give up using Nigerian sources at all.
  
  Thank you @Celestina007 Nauteeq (talk) 15:16, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  - My understanding of sources in Nigeria is literally my forte, from the aforementioned TechCrunch, TechPoint, Nairametrics, Quartz, New Telegraph and Channels only New Telegraph and Channels TV are reliable sources as they are the only two Nigerian sources with an extensive reputation for fact checking and have a clear editorial oversight team and even at that the pieces published aren’t meeting RS. The rest of the sources lack a reputation for fact checking and please do not use ever use "TechCrunch" as they are an outright unreliable source. Celestina007 (talk) 16:43, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    Lmao! 😂 TechCrunch! wow! the way everyone in the ecosystem rave about them I thought they're a credible source! i think for my future articles, if they don't have a "traditional" press coverage from reputable media houses e.g. the businessdays, guardian etc (who have proper editorial structures) i'm just going to leave and find topics with relevant coverage to write about or i'd simply focus on editing other published articles of grammar etc. thanks a bunch for providing clarity @Celestina007. Nauteeq (talk) 20:01, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    - - They are "red listed" there are tools we use in anti spam & one of such indicated the source as "red listed" via community consensus which indicates blatant unreliability. Celestina007 (talk) 21:03, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

April 2022

Hello, Nauteeq, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who misuse multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please disclose these connections. Thank you. Celestina007 (talk) 00:40, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Celestina007 I actually only use one account @Nauteeq. So, my account is unconnected to these accounts you've mentioned. I'm also not aware of any further edits on this page, except the ones I made just minutes after creating the page. Nauteeq (talk) 07:40, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey I’m not entirely sure I understand what you mean or imply by saying "my account is unconnected to these accounts you've mentioned" as I have mentioned no other accounts other than the templated AGF Warning I left you. Celestina007 (talk) 14:16, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia." as I only posted and edited about 5 times with the same account as it's the only one i have. @Celestina007 Nauteeq (talk) 15:02, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- - - I am afraid you reference an automated response me templating you generated and those aren’t my words per se, I however do take responsibility for the confusion this might have caused you. I would however love to talk to you about other things pertaining this article sometime in the future. Celestina007 (talk) 16:48, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Big Cabal Media (April 14)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Theroadislong was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of organizations and companies). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Big Cabal Media and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Big Cabal Media, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Fresh Dialogue

Hello, I am starting a fresh dialogue for productive purposes. I am trying to understand your thinking, I just discovered that one of the brains behind the organization is an individual named Tomi Davies who 13 years ago created an autobiography in his UP which existed until today which I flagged it and it was speedy deleted it does appear as though one person has an history of self promotion as can be verified above, Please this begs my second question, were you in any manner approached by anyone to create this article? Please I have not accused nor am I accusing you of undeclared paid editing, I’m only trying to understand why you chose to create a non notable promotional article on an organization that fails NCORP, and also why you sourced the article to COISOURCES, unreliable sources and claimed the article had several secondary reliable sources when it didn’t, My frustration is, had I not devoted years after NPP academy with Barkeep49 and became a master at sourcing and especially at Nigerian sources, I would have missed this and an article on a non notable organization would have ended up on mainspace. Furthermore had Theroadislong who also, is a grandmaster at AFC and sourcing not been the reviewer who reviewed the article, it may have "fallen into the hands" of an inexperienced AFC reviewer who might have been confused and accepted the promotional non notable article, see your first revision into mainspace. Now we have discarded sourcing because it simply isn’t there, hence my question on if or not you were approached by anybody to create the article. Celestina007 (talk) 17:54, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i found tomi davies was associated with the company following a funding announcement i saw while sourcing for links before actually writing the article. although i am not affiliated with the company in any way, i've followed their sites zikoko & techcabal for a long time now and that influenced how i wrote about them in the article (which bothers on 'original research' on second thought). also, i assumed the parent company was notable enough considering they've had two public funding announcements between 2020 and now. regarding the choice of sources, i found out went through the gn guidelines you attached and i saw that even though the articles where written to look different from what other sites reported they were primarily sourced from the same press releases, which disqualifies the coverage from a credible and reliability perspective. no, i wasn't. thank you for your time, as i've learnt that "reliability" of source is about the origin of the message itself as it is about media platform the message is published on. @Celestina007 Nauteeq (talk) 19:53, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

i've now added {{Db-g7}} to the top of the draft so it can be deleted and removed completely. thank you! @Celestina007 Nauteeq (talk) 20:04, 14 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- There was no reason to have deleted the draft, if I felt it far from notability I would have nominated it for deletion I had hope in it is why I incubated it as WP:ATD. What I want you to understand something, and this is speaking in general, although discouraged there is absolutely nothing wrong in creating COI or UPE articles insofar as the person followed WP:COIDISCLOSE & WP:PAYDISCLOSE, the problem is in not disclosing this, Infact hypothetically speaking if this was a paid job someone gave you, what I would have done was to completely removed the references and aid you in putting reliable sources in the article.
