speedy

Please do not nominate articles for speedy deletion 60 seconds )literally) after they've been started. Give people a chance. DGG (talk) 08:57, 3 February 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, you _just_ did this to me too :( --Phixxor (talk) 04:35, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

That is in refrence to a WP:CSD A1 or WP:CSD A3. I nominated yours for a WP:CSD A7.
Whether it is for no content or no notability, it is very discouraging to see this immediately upon creating the page, after spending so much time finding newspaper links and the review from Pitchfork to make sure it's notable. Does a page need to be perfect before it can be created? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Phixxor (talk • contribs) 04:47, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
I apologize for discouraging you. However, unlike no content, notability is much easier to determine. If something isn't notable, no amount of adding content is going to make it so. I would suggest looking at WP:MUSIC to see the notability guidelines for bands. Thanks, Non-dropframe (talk) 05:01, 20 April 2010 (UTC)

FYI

I removed your speedy delete tag from Dr. Thomas P. Rosandich. By the time you had tagged it it was clearly not a copyright infringement anymore. VernoWhitney (talk) 21:05, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thanks for the update Non-dropframe (talk) 21:08, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion

I was not actually test editing, I was speed-making userboxes for all minor political parties in the US, and copied a little too much. TN05 23:53, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

Oh okay, I'm sorry. I was a little confused. --Non-Dropframe talk 23:56, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
Not a problem; you were doing what was probably the best thing to do. I moved the article, BTW. :) TN05 00:02, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Total Riot

Well, I created some days ago a wikipedia page for the band Total Riot and was deleted. I request that you grand me permission on re-creating that page since this band is playing Wacken Open Air festival (a global well known festival) and on wacken's wikipedia page, Total Riot's name appears without having a link for Total Riot wikipedia page as there is with the rest bands.

Hello. I am not an administrator. I am simply a member of the New Page Patrol. We tag pages that we do not believe fit Wikipedia's policies and an administrator then deletes the page if he or she agrees with our reasoning. If you believe this band should have a page, after reading the section on musicians: wp:band, then you may go ahead and re-create the page unless it has been blocked from being recreated, in which case you need to seek an admin that will remove that block for you. Just be sure that your new article conforms to the notability guidelines that I linked you to before you create it or you run the risk of having the page deleted again. Thanks --Non-Dropframe talk 21:51, 28 April 2010 (UTC)

Walls historic site

Though I agree that this article can use references and wikification, I wonder why you are proposing deletion using BLP standards? This is not a biography of a living person, is it? Cullen328 (talk) 05:07, 16 September 2010 (UTC)

Well, while the title of the article suggests its topic isn't exactly biographical, 90%+ of the content is. I would suggest that the easiest way to settle the matter would be to reference your article, just as would be otherwise required. I'm really not trying to give you a hard time or anything and I'm sorry if I come across that way, I'm merely attempting to make sure everything meets standards, you know? --Non-Dropframe talk 05:56, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
I am not the author but am an editor who wondered why BLP standards were being applied to an article about an historic site. I have no knowledge about the subject other than reading the article. Much of the article is about the head of a college who served from 1924 to 1953 when he retired. Given these dates the chances this man is still alive are negligible. I now see the article is gone. My concern is using strict BLP standards in this case, and now we may have lost a potentially good article about an historic site in a 3rd world country. Cullen328 (talk) 20:23, 16 September 2010 (UTC) Cullen328 (talk) 17:55, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
After having had time to think about it, do you now agree with me that BLP was the wrong policy to apply in this case? Cullen328 (talk) 17:57, 17 September 2010 (UTC)

Your tagging on Anterria (world)

Thank you for your effort on tagging with maintanance templates on this article. Can you please explain why you chose some of those templates? I don't see any explicit Conflict of interest nor do I see how a specific POV is being pushed. I previously noted with twinkle that it was unreferenced and had notability issues. Please be careful with using twinkle as it appears to not respect previously created multiple-issues templates. Hasteur (talk) 18:22, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Alison Milbank

Hello Non-dropframe. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Alison Milbank, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The article makes a credible assertion of importance or significance, sufficient to pass A7. Thank you. Courcelles 01:54, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Tagging on 39 Episodes

Hi there! Thank you for your interest in New Page Patrol, however, it is often considered biting to tag articles A1 (insufficient context to identify the subject) or A3 (no content) within a few minutes of their creation. In the future, please consider patrolling further back in the log or checking the time that the article was created before tagging. Best, Danger (talk) 07:08, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Wind Power in Malta

Non-Dropframe, I expect the double posting of Your contributed article, Wind Power in Malta was an accident. Could you remove the first one? I would consider shorter headlines more neutral; here: Wind Power in Malta. In the main issue you have correct: The article was short and incomplete. The reason is that I focused in the project Category:Wind power in the European Union by filling the missing gap of Malta in this category. In my opinion each country has equal right for their own article in the series: "Wind power in "country". I call it neutrality, don’t you agree? The incompleteness or present state of an article is in my opinion not an adequate reason for deletion. The same applies to the wind power volume since there is high potential for Wind power in Malta. The publicity of the present status in the media including Wikipedia may promote the wind power development in Malta. Thanks to your question, I understood that the feed-in tariff article is also relevant in this category Category:Wind power in the European Union. Thanks! Watti Renew (talk) 14:22, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Same applied for the Category:Renewable energy in the European Union and Category:Solar power in the European Union. Watti Renew (talk) 19:46, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Deletion

Hi Non-dropframe. This page is tagged for deletion.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memini I have tried to improve this by adding reference in proper order, added one category also. I can try to improve it, only if it is not going to be deleted. Oherwise not intrested to use my time on an article which is to be deleted anyway. Regards.Mehmda (talk) 02:46, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Memini

I have declined the speedy deletion - since you tagged it, the article has developed and has three relevant references, enough to pass A7 and in my opinion enough for notability, though you can consider AfD if you like. By the way, you tagged it only four minutes after it was first input - with something like this, it is worth waiting rather longer to see what develops, as new users often press "Save page" to see what it looks like long before they have finished. Thanks for offering help on the author's talk page, though - that more than makes up for any BITEy-ness of the early tagging. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 11:37, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

re: Pteromerhanophobia

Regarding this feedback item, see also WP:ANI#Fear of Flying Article. --- Barek (talk • contribs) - 03:52, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for asking. This is copied, but gives you the general idea. I have taken the advice given and will see where it goes. Thanks again--Mt6617 (talk) 05:52, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

First, please excuse me if I am not familiar with your customs and procedures.

I have enjoyed the use of Wikipedia for many years. And all those that have been a part of Wikipedia I thank you.

I come here to ask that you improve an article that needs serious attention. This is not just my opinion, but appears to be others as well. (Please see talk page).

I do own a non-profit website, with forums titled Takingflight that I started when I was battling my own phobia.

I did put the website in the "External Links" and it has caused some discussion.

As I have "stumbled" and made mistakes, I have decided to make no further edits. I will however be more than happy to provide information to whoever wishes to take on the task of editing this article. But as my experience here, trying to do it myself has been.... less than favorable, I do not want to be directly involved in the actual editing of the article.

This is important to understand. I do not think my purpose here has been understood. I sincerely wish to see this article improved, or removed if it can't be. I do not care what links are placed, or what references are made, as long as they are reliable.

I have spent the last two weeks begging for help, only to be met with roadblocks, rules, links, redirects, etc. I hope that Wikipedia is better than this.

So again, so that we are perfectly clear, I wish for the article to be improved, accurate, and factual. I AGAIN do not care what links and references are presented as long as they are accurate.

Can someone please help with this project?

At this time I would like to acknowledge those that HAVE been helpful, and understanding.[82] [83] [84] [85] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mt6617 (talk • contribs) 02:18, 8 February 2012 (UTC) 

   Mt6617 has a conflict of interest with this article and has attempted to add links to his own website to it. He's been asked to post specific recommendations in the article's talk page, but he hasn't done so. He's primarily complained repeatedly about the how bad the content is. Mt6617 did find one useful source and was commended for it. He was encouraged to use it and find more like it. However, when pointed to WP:EL for an explanation of why he can't link to a forum in the external links section, he responded by seeking out some other article that had one. Unfortunately, when I pointed him to WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS, some nimrod had nominated it a 2nd time (in five years) for deletion, and Mt6617 didn't read it through to find the link to the correct article. I do admit to getting testy with Mt6617's constant complaining, and I highly encourage other editors to try and help Mt6617 out. And good luck to you. Rklawton (talk) 02:45, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

The above is what I am speaking of. Again, again, and AGAIN... don't use Takingflight. Use something else. I don't care. Just publish an accurate article. Is that really too much to ask? --Mt6617 (talk) 03:07, 8 February 2012 (UTC) 

   And that's what I'm speaking of. Running around and telling us to publish a better article doesn't accomplish anything unless you have specific recommendations. We're all volunteers here. We edit what we like when we feel like it, so getting your shorts in a bunch because we're not jumping at your command isn't going to make you any more comfortable or pleasant to work with. Rklawton (talk) 03:09, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

I have suggested numerous sources, resources, articles, etc, that seem to be more than acceptable everywhere else. You say I have a "conflict of interest" then by that very reason I should not be allowed to edit this article. Fine... Please publish an accurate article. Again, way before I came along this article was noted as in bad shape, by editors, administrators, etc. I am just asking that you fix it. Rklawton, frankly I suspect that you don't care about the quality of this project, just your own position. Regardless... just back off since you are unwilling to help. Thank you, good night, and good bye. --Mt6617 (talk) 03:18, 8 February 2012 (UTC) 

   I have suggested numerous sources, resources, articles, etc, On the contrary. I read the talk page thoroughly some days ago, and you've made very few constructive suggestions. You've mostly complained about how bad the article is without providing the specifics needed to fix it, or fixing it yourself. In fact, I still don't have a clear idea of what you think is wrong with the article. Beyond My Ken (talk) 03:43, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

           If I may make a suggestion, how about starting small - pick one sentence from the article that is inaccurate and suggest an alternative onTalk:Pteromerhanophobia. Hopefully you could collaborate with the other editors to make it accurate (with reliable sources to support it). I've seen this process work well (but slowly) on Talk:The Beatles. Good luck! GoingBatty (talk) 03:47, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

               @Mt6617: GoingBatty's suggestion is an excellent one, why not give it a try? There's nothing to lose and everything to gain! Beyond My Ken (talk) 04:29, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

                   Good point. I agree. Δρ.Κ. λόγοςπράξις 04:33, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

                       I'm going to close this. Further interaction can take place on editor's or article's talk page. Thanks to all, Drmies (talk) 04:55, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

ARTICLE REPORT
Wikipedia's Newest Featured Portal: Conservatism

By Lionelt

On January 21, The Conservatism Portal was promoted to Featured Portal (FP) due largely to the contributions of Lionelt. This is the first Featured content produced by WikiProject Conservatism. The road to Featured class was rocky. An earlier nomination for FP failed, and in October the portal was "Kept" after being nominated for deletion.

Member Eisfbnore significantly contributed to the successful Good Article nomination of Norwegian journalist and newspaper editor Nils Vogt in December. Eisfbnore also created the article. In January another Project article was promoted to Featured Article. Luís Alves de Lima e Silva, Duke of Caxias, a president of Brazil, attained Featured class with significant effort by Lecen. The Article Incubator saw its first graduation in November. A collaboration spearheaded by Mzk1 and Trackerseal successfully developed Star Parker to pass the notability guideline.

PROJECT NEWS
Project Scope Debated

By Lionelt

Another discussion addressing the project scope began in December. Nine alternatives were presented in the contentious, sometimes heated discussion. Support was divided between keeping the exitsing scope, or adopting a scope with more specificity. Some opponents of the specific scope were concerned that it was too limiting and would adversely affect project size. About twenty editors participated in the discussion.

Inclusion of the article Ku Klux Klan (KKK) was debated. Supporters for inclusion cited sources describing the KKK as "conservative." The article was excluded with more than 10 editors participating.

Project membership continues to grow. There are currently 73 members. Member Goldblooded (pictured) volunteers for the UK Conservative Party and JohnChrysostom is a Christian Democrat. North8000 is interested in libertarianism. We won't tell WikiProject Libertarianism he's slumming. Let's stop by their talkpages and share some Wikilove.

DISCUSSION REPORT
Why is Everyone Talking About Rick Santorum?

By Lionelt

Articles about the GOP presidential candidate and staunch traditional marriage supporter have seen an explosion of discussion. On January 8 an RFC was opened (here) to determine if Dan Savage's website link should be included in Campaign for "santorum" neologism. The next day the Rick Santorum article itself was the subject of an RFC (here) to determine if including the Savage neologism was a violation of the BLP policy. Soon after a third was opened (here) at Santorum controversy regarding homosexuality. This RFC proposes merging the neologism article into the controversy article.

The Abortion case closed in November after 15 weeks of contentious arbitration. The remedies include semi-protection of all abortion articles (numbering 1,500), sanctions for some editors including members of this Project, and a provision for a discussion to determine the names of what are colloquially known as the pro-life and pro-choice articles. The Committee endorsed the "1 revert rule" for abortion articles.

Proposed deletion of Edge of the World (Randy Stonehill album)

The article Edge of the World (Randy Stonehill album) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable album.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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.

Please don't revise my edit to the page. It is ridiculous to have a fan made setlist on the page.

Metromile Notability

Hi- I added a note to the the discussion page, but the company is notable because they are the only company that offers a true per-mile insurance, which is different than behavior-based insurance.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/1 Park Lane

Hey just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I am supporting keeping this article based off the comments I left in the AfD. However, I completely understand your nomination as I learned that people really do want to keep these types of articles many years ago. I nominated the WallStreet Tower Omaha for deletion once in 2007 and it was decided it should be kept (see: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/WallStreet Tower Omaha) and then I nominated it a second time in January of this year after it had failed to ever reach construction, where it was decided to delete it (see: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/WallStreet Tower Omaha (2nd nomination)), Either way these two nominations served to alter my view on how these AfD's should be handled, and this case is very similar (only the WallStreet Tower had much worse sourcing that 1 Park Lane currently does). -War wizard90 (talk) 04:28, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Thank you for a prompt response. Will you kindly remove the tag, then, or do you want someone else to do so, or to confirm? DES (talk) 00:37, 30 May 2015 (UTC)



Sophia Abrahão

Please do not edit more What do I reverted on page Sophia Abrahão, I just wanted to do a test and forgot to do so in the sandbox. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.177.178.57 (talk) 23:36, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

  • @177.177.178.57: I've removed the content on the basis that it was un-cited and basically just a restatement of what was already in the table anyway. Removing large chunks of content is always going to attract attention. In the future if you get confused, please reach out to an experienced editor to help you rather than getting frustrated and edit-waring. I'd be happy to help you if you should ever need it again. --Non-Dropframe talk 23:44, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of (playwright)

Really have no idea why filling in information about an award winning playwright is 'irrelevant' but cool story bro.

It's fine. I was going through and was going to fill out all the bios, and in more detail, of the winning playwrights on that article but since apparently they are 'irrelevant' by your standards I won't waste my time. Better sites to get the info anyway. Cheers.

  • @Beccaobrien44: I'm very sorry you feel that way. Unfortunately, the fact is, an article that doesn't meet the standards agreed upon by the community will end up being deleted. There are ways to create an article in a semi-private space what allows you to take your time and ensure the article is up to snuff before posting it in the main article space. I'd be happy to help you with this as well as getting a copy of the deleted article if you'd like. By the way, I never used the word "irrelevant." --Non-Dropframe talk 03:40, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

By deleting it under the guise of 'credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject' it is saying it is irrelevant. Perhaps you need a thesaurus? The fact is the pages already exist and you'd rather they be blank. That makes no sense - delete the source article then? Call it not meeting the standards all you like, but it comes down to subjectivity when monitors are given so much power and the 'significance of subject' is something you have decided on when I'm guessing you don't know anything about the subject. There are other articles that are allowed to exist on this site that have less information and less 'importance of subject' - so it comes down to subjectivity. You really don't need to respond again - but I'm guessing you will because you seem to like the last word. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beccaobrien44 (talk • contribs) 02:24, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

  • @Beccaobrien44: Believe it or not, I've actually been trying to help you. If you go back and read what I've written, I've linked you to the appropriate resources so you can understand what the guidelines are here. And as a matter of fact, I didn't delete your article, an admin who agreed with my reasoning did. I don't have the power to delete articles, only bring them to the attention of those who can. In any case, I'm sorry if you disagree the guidelines. I don't write them, I just enforce them. --Non-Dropframe talk 02:29, 31 May 2015 (UTC)

You linked to one article that is actually quite vague since it talks around itself and lists things that will be deleted when some of those same things exist on live pages - this whole site is based on subjectiveness. That's fine, but rather than acknowledging that you just keep carrying on about the guidelines which, as I've mentioned, are subjective. Yes, I am aware you don't make the guidelines - not sure where I said you did? I also didn't say you deleted it I said it was deleted. I did mention I didn't need you to continue to repeat yourself since I don't think you've been helpful (and this is actually OK). I also tried to walk away from this thread but I'm not allowed to delete my own comments either. Whatever man you're not interested in listening you're interested in talking so please come back again and tell me how helpful you are.

Thank you for your help. I will now create a draft of the article and copy it over once it has been announced at WWDC.

I am well aware of the guidelines, however please note that it was a mistake that I created a new page in Tamil language named கேப்டன் அமெரிக்கா: உள்நாட்டுப்போர் rather than translating its pre existing content from the article "Captain America: Civil War", and once I realised it I requested a speedy deletion.

Rollback granted

Hi Non-dropframe/Archive 4. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:

  • Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
  • Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
  • Rollback should never be used to edit war.
  • If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
  • Use common sense.

If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! — MusikAnimal talk 03:34, 11 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi there, a page I just made is being patrolled by the user Iamahashtag. I saw you commented on this user's talk page and it looks like they're been called out as a bot.

MINDBODY, Inc Article

Hi! I'm looking into the rejection of my recent article about MINDBODY. I know it was rejected for appearing as advertising, but I was hoping to get more detail about how I can improve it so that it can get approved.

Thanks! Dputgr11 (talk) 21:02, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Hi Dputgr11! I'd be happy to help! First and foremost, I have a concern that you may have a conflict of interest or "COI." While editing a page with a subject you have a relationship with isn't technically against Wikipedia policy, it is nevertheless strongly discouraged -- even more so if you have a financial relationship. To move onto the article itself, Wikipedia policy states Information about companies and products must be written in an objective and unbiased style, free of puffery." However, the article is overwhelmingly positive, essentially boiling down to a list of achievements. Of course it's not unacceptable to write about positive aspects of the company but balance is important. I would highly recommend reading some of the articles on mid-sized businesses that can be found here to see how those organizations are written about. If I can be of any further assistance please let me know! --Non-Dropframe talk 21:28, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

Hello, 90731fly, as someone with many stories that I have very strong feelings for and attachments to, I understand why my deletion nomination may be distressing. Please know that it is in no way personal. However, Wikipedia does have standards for notability and context. I would highly recommend reading this article which describes how to get started writing your first article. Also, the articles for creation project is an outstanding resource that incorporates feedback from experienced editors. If I can be of any more help, feel free to leave me a message here! --Non-Dropframe talk 20:57, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Danialesmaeili's repeated removal of Academic Presenter speedy deletion templates

What are we supposed to do about this? Should it be reported to WP:ANI? Also, did I accidentally violate WP:3RR? It seems hard to avoid three reverts before reporting (if that's what we should do) when there are four warning levels to be given before reporting. Is reverting removal of CSD templates three times allowed? KSFT talk 22:22, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

@KSFT: I've already brought it to WP:AIV. And as far as 3RR goes, there is a list of exemptions, one of which is "reverting obvious vandalism." Intentionally removing CSD tags is obvious vandalism.
Ah, alright, I wasn't sure if it was considered vandalism. That also answers the question I was about to ask about whether it was okay to use rollback there. KSFT talk 22:29, 17 June 2015 (UTC)
@KSFT: I wouldn't use rollback the first or second time. The third time is definitely vandalism but once I go past 3 reverts, I like to use Twinkle's Rollback button so that I can note in the edit summary that I'm claiming a 3RR exemption in case there are questions. --Non-Dropframe talk 22:39, 17 June 2015 (UTC)

Your signature

Hello there! I'm working on a project trying to bring most of the coding on Wikipedia up to the most current standards (HTML5), and I noticed that your signature is using <font>...</font> tags which were deprecated in HTML 4.0 Transitional, marked as invalid in 4.0 Strict, and are not part of HTML5 at all. I'd love to help you update your signature to use newer code, and if you're interested, I suggest replacing: 

<span style="color:gray;">--</span>[[User:Non-dropframe|<span style="color:Orange;">Non-Dropframe</span>]] [[User talk:Non-dropframe|<span style="color:gray;"><u><sub>talk</sub></u></span>]]

<span style="color:gray;">--</span>[[User:Non-dropframe|<span style="color:Orange;">Non-Dropframe</span>]] [[User talk:Non-dropframe|<span style="color:gray;"><u><sub>talk</sub></u></span>]]

which will result in a 190 character long signature with an appearance of: --Non-Dropframe talkcompared to your existing 169 character long signature of: --Non-Dropframe talk — Either way. Happy editing! (t) Josve05a (c) 23:45, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

188.30.192.26, My revert of your edit is entirely valid. Blanking content without a valid reason will get reverted and "don't worry about this" as an edit summary suggests intentional vandalism. --Non-Dropframe talk 03:54, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
It contains the line "Remains of olive oil have been found in jugs probably over 4,000 years old would you believe in a tomb on the island of Naxos in the Aegean Sea.". Would you believe? That is sensationalism not encyclopedia-editing. All my reverts contain one form of nonsense or another. 188.30.192.26 (talk) 03:57, 28 June 2015 (UTC)

PS Stop sending me template warnings, any problem with me can be reported to AE. Newquartermaster (talk) 12:07, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Newquartermaster I need not be an expert to become involved in simple general editing matters. The talk page exists to reach a consensus and I recommend you use it to do so. The issue here is that you believe these institutions are not "legitimate." Yet, they do indeed both exist and operate in the area in question. Therefore a consensus must be generated to determine if so-called "illegitimate" institutions should or should not be included. Further, you removed the reflist, among other things, which would have gotten your edit reverted regardless. Finally, I'd rather not report you. I think we can work this out civilly. --Non-Dropframe talk 12:13, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for understanding, and thanks also for taking part in the talk. I admit it is of political nature but changes I feel need to be made. I self-reverted anyhow as you see when adding the remark of illegal. Newquartermaster (talk) 12:27, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Your acceptance of a pending change on Alex Jones (radio host)

I undid your acceptance of this change to Alex Jones (radio host). Per WP:BLPCAT, for a category to be added to a page about a living person, "the case for each content category must be made clear by the article text and its reliable sources." Because the article did not discuss Alex Jones's activism against GMOs or vaccines, those categories cannot be added to the article. In order for those categories to be appropriately added, the article would have to (1) discuss his stances on those issues and (2) use reliable sources to verify the addition of that content. This is especially true because those categories have the potential to be controversial and could potentially portray Jones in a poor light. Inks.LWC (talk) 20:14, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Creation of Emma Swan article

Thank you for reviewing and creating Emma Swan. I just would like to know if there is any possibility to have my old sandbox back, since the Emma Swan article was created (moved) from a draft I wrote in my sandbox, and the revision history of the Emma Swan article is actually the history my sandbox.

Greetings! --LoЯd ۞pεth 19:26, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Lord Opeth Hello and congratulations on a very well written article! Page moves leave behind redirects which I apologize for not cleaning up in your sandbox. I've removed the redirect resulting in an empty sandbox. However, if you want to wipe out the page history, you can place a {{db-u1}} template on the page to ask for an admin to delete it, allowing you to start fresh. Alternately, you may consider beginning new articles in the "Draft:" namespace which is the preferred namespace for articles you intend to submit to AfC.
