Why are you covering George Floyd?

Why are you covering George Floyd? People should know the truth. You hiding it and deleting it. That's stupid and unfair. He was an adult movie actor.

@Maksimiuk: The edits are not supported by Reliable sources. Some of the sources you have added here are gossip websites and are not reliable. When editing BLP articles there is a certain protocol that is followed and adding controversial sensitive information about BLP without reliable sources is not allowed.

@Got a Smart Idea tell me about it First of all, George Floyd is already dead. So rules about "living persons" don't apply to this page. Second, "iHarare Media" is Zimbabwe's newspaper - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media_of_Zimbabwe . Your actions are clearly - against African people. Shame on you.

Usage of 4 and 4im warnings

Hello!

Just a heads-up: You actually don't need to add a 4im warning after a level 4 warning. The 4im warnings are used as a first and only warning (See UWLEVELS).

Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia. - Flori4nKT A L K 22:31, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Invitation to RedWarn

Hello, Get a smart idea! I noticed you have been using Twinkle and was wondering if you'd like to beta test my new tool, RedWarn, specifically designed to improve your editing experience.

• Easy to use - Unlike other tools, RedWarn uses easy to interpret icons and simple summaries for common actions, reducing both learning and reading times.
• Supports rollback and rollback-like functionality - Unlike Twinkle, RedWarn supports both rollback and rollback-like functionality for users will rollback permissions. This decreases waiting times during rollbacks.

• Making life easier on the battlefield - Ever been in the middle of a vandalism war or campaign, frantically reloading the history page to see a new edit? No more! Enabling RedWarn's "Alert on Change" feature will automatically send you to the latest edit when a new edit occurs - and if you're working on something else, RedWarn will send you a notification while the tab is still open in the background. No time wasted.
• Rollback previews - If you're ever worried about the changes a rollback will make, especially in the case of reverting good faith edits, you can click the rollback preview button to preview the difference a rollback will make, with the version that will be restored on the right, and the latest revision on the left.

• Always the latest revision - RedWarn will automatically redirect you to the latest revision if the rollback is no longer for the latest revision - no more frustrating errors.

• Fast - RedWarn can automatically select a warning level, and, on vandalism and content removal rollbacks, automatically select a warning template.

• Built on your feedback - RedWarn is receiving frequent feature additions and changes based on your feedback. If there's something you don't like, or would like to see, just say!

• and many more features ...but I don't want to fill your userpage.

RedWarn is currently in use by over 35 other Wikipedians, and feedback so far has been extremely positive. If you're interested, please see see the RedWarn tool page for more information on RedWarn's features which I haven't listed here. Otherwise, feel free to remove this message from your page. If you have any further questions, please ping me or leave a message on my talk page. Your feedback is much appreciated! Ed6767 talk! 18:50, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Blanking

Why are you blanking warnings on your talk pages. Please see Wikipedia:Removing warnings Got a Smart Idea^{tell me about it} 11:34, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Because I have read them already. It's like an inbox, once it's read, you delete or archive the message. 188.214.15.31 (talk) 12:33, 7 June 2020 (UTC)

Twinkle rollback

Hello. Pretty sure twinkle rollback is a tool designed to counteract unconstructive or disruptive edits, not to decline speedy deletion nominations advanced in good faith. You may want to reconsider how you use it. 69.124.61.163 (talk) 02:19, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Elon Musk

You asked for me to provide reliable sources but the claim right now that he is an engineer is only backed by source [5] in which he states himself to be an engineer. That is be definition not a reliable source. Please make the changes in order to reflect this. I should not need a reliable source to show that.

Discussed Here Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 15:28, 18 June 2020 (UTC)

COVID biological agent

The European Commission has classified COVID as a biological agent, as has the US. It is quite obviously a biological agent. Explicit sources are not required for any of the other agents in the list either, but here's a source for you.

This is very obvious. Please stop vandalizing the article.

Wikipedia:Sandbox

Thank you for trying to make Wikipedia a better place.

This is really a pretty minor thing, but i'm having trouble figuring out how to say what i'm trying to say. i'm trying to be helpful and encouraging and supportive but what i write keeps sounding belittling in my head, when the truth is i think you did the right thing, i'm just afraid it might not have worked.

In this post, did you use a template to write out the message for you? because the result kind of nonsensically says, "Don't mess up the Sandbox, use the Sandbox instead." i know what you meant, "silt" probably knows what you meant... but...

Truth is truth and rules are rules, but some people need to see or hear them, and some people won't see or hear if they're distracted by... a pretty minor thing.

Does that make sense?

Anyway. Happy Wikipedia-ing. Hope everything goes well.

Re: Proposed deletion of Riko Kohara

The article was made literally 5 minutes ago and I was in the process of writing articles and sources.--Yukinotane (talk) 14:16, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

Yukinotane, Hello, having a PROD tag doesn’t mean that the article is going to be deleted immediately. Add the reliable sources to it to meet the Notability guidelines.and then remove the PROD tag. I suggest when creating an article use the draft space first before bringing to mainspace ,especially when unsourced,for less chances of deletion. Cheers Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 14:21, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

Deletion sorting

Thanks for your recent contributions in performing deletion sorting. Please note that regarding the Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/People page, it states, "Note: In most cases there is another, more specific category than this one. If possible, please use one of these instead". I have removed some AfD discussions you listed there because the discussions were listed on at least one of the more specific biographical delsort pages, and were not needed on the People delsort page. Just a heads up so you're aware of this. Thanks, North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 13:59, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

Northamerica1000, I’ll have a look, thanks for letting me know. I am actually new to deletion sorting. Hope I’ll become more better and precise as I continue. Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 14:02, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

Sushant Singh Rajput death timing

Heyyy want to you are from? I mean when you edit the Sushant death detail on Wikipedia Karuna Moryani (talk) 05:44, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Karuna Moryani, I don’t know what you mean? Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 09:43, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

(talk page watcher) There are some folks on Twitter passing around a claim that Rajput's death was added to the article Sushant Singh Rajput before he died and speculating that it was therefore a planned murder rather than suicide. I believe that the UTC timestamps (as opposed to editor-local timestamp) on edits have contributed to their theory. It looks like you were patrolling recent changes that day and did some reverts, so I'm guessing Karuna Moryani is asking what timezone you were in when you reverted the initial suicide edits. Schazjmd (talk) 13:35, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Schazjmd, Actually this was the first edit about his suicide and I happened to be around and saw that it was unsourced, so I had to revert it. I don’t know what the time was in India? I think the IP made the edit immediately after receiving the news? Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 16:43, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Here's a link to one of the conspiracy tweets, if you're interested: https://twitter.com/Official_Arnab_/status/1278005265434963974 Schazjmd (talk) 16:55, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

Schazjmd, WOW, those are just theories, the editor edited some minutes after his death, I think, so he might have had first hand information. Those speculations, about his page being edited before his death, may not be logical Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 17:01, 30 June 2020 (UTC)

WP:UAA reports on users with no edits

Generally, there is no reason to report usernames with no edits whatsoever. Per WP:UAAI: "Wait until the user edits. Do not report a user that hasn't edited unless they are clearly a vandal. We do not want to welcome productive editors with a report at UAA, nor do we want to waste our time dealing with accounts that may never be used." The exceptions are obvious hate speech or names that attack a living person/Wikipedia editor, those are blockable even without any edits, but other run-of-the-mill violations such as names of organizations or products need not be reported unless and until they at least attempt to edit, and you should be able to clearly explain what the problem is if it is not immediately evident.

For whatever reason, every day dozens, if not hundreds of accounts are created that never make one single edit. It is our responsibility as admins to conscientiously review every report a user makes at UAA, so we have to check for contribs, deleted contribs, and tripping of the edit filter for every one of these reports, only to find out there's nothing there and therefore no problem to be solved. That's time that could be spent doing more productive things, but you basically obligate admins to do it by making such reports. Beeblebrox (talk) 22:49, 5 July 2020 (UTC)

Beeblebrox, Sorry for the error. I should be more sight full next time. Cheers

Re Mass killings by communist states.

Citations can be inserted later - lack of a citation is not a reason for you to remove edits such as the entry pointing out that much mass killing was done by communist states. I will put it in again at a later date, but please do not remove it again. You could be kind enough to put it back in for me. In this case I may find a link at some stage. I do think that the point has to be made at the beginning of the page because currently it reads more like procommunist propaganda than being an honest look at the history which included the deaths of 10s of millions of people done by communist states.

Wikipedia becomes boring when administrators do an immediate removal of a reasonable edit!

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that relies solely on reliable sources, if you add unsourced controversial information it is removed immediately. Please also add your comment at the bottom Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 22:21, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Pay Phone (Edson Song)

Hi, I have seen you have put the song up for deletion although, I have seen the first edit was not reasonable, I then re edited the page with reliable sources, I think it it purely acceptable.

A point worth mentioning...

...is that YES I support your cause, Black Lives Matter. --92.41.16.175 (talk) 21:06, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

Hello Synoman Barris,

I was quite tentative about making that edit due to the lack of citation. However, I noticed that that entire introductory paragraph was devoid of citations, and thus figured that leaving out a citation wouldn't necessarily go against the flow of the overall text. However, with that said, I understand citations are nonetheless crucial. I referenced Rotten Tomatoes in the text itself, and perhaps should've left a citation to the website in order to verify this (?). Where I did struggle, though, was finding a citation to back up the claim that general audiences, i.e. not professional critics or writers for publications, generally derided Nanette. This is something that is evident from the plethora of comments across a number of different public forums and so on; thus, this is an important piece of information that is nonetheless difficult to cite (as it isn't summarised in a neat article in the same manner that the opinions of the critics were). I added this piece of information as it is crucial - to only relay the professional response to Nanette is to give a homogenous and one-sided perspective on what was otherwise a divisive Netflix release. Furthermore, this is ironic, as the critics themselves praised Nanette for shedding light on stories normally only perceived from one side of the coin.

Thank you for reading - I shall try to come back to this article with some citations.

HungerStation/Nova Company

Hello, I appreciate you for your help and treatment with new users, unlike the other admins, were they used to be aggressive towards us, first of all, i create articles about companies/brands that are popular in their countries, for example, HungerStation the most popular online food delivery in saudi arabia, i used to create article about it with adding source, Now Nova one of the most popular water bottles companies in saudi arabia, i collected all the sources from it’s websites so i can write a brief about them, when someone blames me for advertising these companies, then it’s all wrong. I never used to be a part of conflict of interests, I would be very grateful to you if you helped me get these two pages back, I am a passionate person in Wikipedia and I want to serve my country and show its popular companies/cultures and celebrities to the whole world as much as possible Aziz bm (talk) 18:49, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Aziz bm, Hello, if you want to write it again, you’ll have to remove promotional words from the article , make it neutral, add reliable sources and it will be just fine.I also suggest you work on the article while in draft space to avoid unnecessary deletion s. Ohh! I am not an administrator though. Regards Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 18:58, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Aziz bm, Left some helpful links on your talk page. Happy editing :) Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 18:59, 7 July 2020 (UTC)

Edit

hello my comment on Oliver Cromwell was removed after I stated Cromwell was a rabbit molester but this is intact true during his time in Ireland amongst other crimes he committed one was the molestation of rabbits most notably the molestation on great Victoria street where he performed this infant of the local Irish Catholics as a sign of disrespect.

Auckland - River Length

Hi,

It seems impossible for the rivers in Auckland to be that long. This should be corrected.

Best,

MKD.

Then fix it with a correct citation. Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 10:03, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi,

The longest river in the world is about 6000 km. I doubt there are that many rivers is Auckland. Also, I looked at the reference provided in the article. There is nothing there about the length of rivers or streams. There is something about 3700 of coastline in the Auckland region.

Best,

MKD.

your decline

What credible claim of significance exists in this article which you declined as an a7? Praxidicae (talk) 13:23, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

@Praxidicae:The criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source or does not qualify on Wikipedia's notability guidelines. He may not meet the General criterion on notability, but he is mentioned as a rapper in some sources I got my eyes on. I think A7 doesn’t apply, I suggest you put it up for AFd then. Period Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 13:32, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Mentioned as a rapper is a claim of significance now? What claim of significance is in those sources? Praxidicae (talk) 13:38, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Praxidicae, I don’t know what you think, but a musician to me is some prove of significance, you can CSD at will and the deleting administrator may decide. Maybe I may be wrong, but I’ll stand bold on my decision to deny the CSD. Regards Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 13:43, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Being a musician isn't a claim of significance. At all. Please leave speedy declines to admins or at the very least, more experienced editors so we don't have to waste time on no participation AFDs about utterly non notable people. Praxidicae (talk) 13:44, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Praxidicae, I see you put it up for AFD, so I don’t see where this discussion maybe leading to. I suggest we leave this to the community decide if he is notable or not, which I may agree he does not meet WP:GNG, but once again I still stand bold in my denial of the CSD. Period!

A request to not delete https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Katz_(author)

Hi, this page refers to a published author whose books have been published in different editions in English, Japanese, French and Italian. He is the authorised biographer of popular performer Lee 'Scratch' Perry and the producer of several TV and radio documentaries. Citations have been added to the page and the text re-written to be less promotional. The person in question is independently verifiable as noteworthy and the page should not be deleted.1dubwize (talk) 22:44, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

1dubwize, Hello, I have had a quick glance of your article, most of the sources there are not reliable sources I.e Amazon, Facebook e.t.c. I never nominated your article for deletion but simply sorted it. You can go to the AFD entry and provide a valid reason why the article should be kept. Thank you Megan Barris (Lets talk📧) 22:48, 8 July 2020 (UTC)

Maria Bartiromo

I have noticed negative connotations on anyone one had an association w/ Donald Trump. Peter Navarro is another one. Why does it matter about her interview with Donald Trump? She has interview hundreds of people. Why is her interview w/ Donald Trump the only one mentioned, why is this in her biography? It appears you, Wikipedia are exhibiting "unconscious bias?" 2601:841:4100:DBE0:F8:FD2A:38FB:9CDF (talk) 19:37, 12 July 2020 (UTC)
