tɕɤpʰɯ

A little help here, please. I attempted to create the page tɕɤpʰɯ as a redirect to Japhug language. I get an error that says "The page title or edit you have tried to create has been restricted to administrators at this time. It matches an entry on the local or global blacklists, which is usually used to prevent vandalism." It seems hard to believe that tɕɤpʰɯ would ever have been placed on a blacklist but who am I to judge? Anyway, I think the redirect to Japhug language is legit, so could you please create the page as an admin? Thanks. – Greg Pandatshang (talk) 19:38, 21 November 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Ashrafi Esfahani (cropped).jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Ashrafi Esfahani (cropped).jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 18:26, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

File:Rollie Free, record run.jpg

Hi Dragonfly, your edit adding the photographer source for the above file just popped up on my watchlist. Fantastic and well done. May I ask where you managed to source this info from? Mainly because I drew a blank on who the original photgrapher was when I first uploaded the image way back many moons ago and I'd be interested to know.

Cheers. --Cactus.man ✍ 18:38, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

I found it here, while rummaging through Getty Images on an unrelated project. DS (talk) 18:47, 25 November 2015 (UTC)

Why did you patrol me?

You patrolled my user page Wollmersdorfer and left a cryptic message. Sockpuppet? Delete me? Please state clear what you critisize and what I should do in your opinion. I have this account for years as well as the accounts on other wikipedias with the same name, my real name. Maybe during the user unification something was damaged by the admins (rename to Wollmersdorfer~enwiki) but they left it unrepaired. --Wollmersdorfer (talk) 06:52, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Humbert1.jpg

A tag has been placed on File:Humbert1.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an image page for a missing or corrupt image or an empty image description page for a Commons-hosted image.

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 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.

File:Gravity.jpg

Could you provide a valid rationale for deletion? "Image not used by any page" is not a valid rationale for deletion unless it is unfree and has been tagged with {{di-orphaned fair use}} for at least one week. --Stefan2 (talk) 15:54, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

• A valid speedy deletion rationale is also needed for File:Freda Dudley Ward.jpg. "Better quality" is not a valid reason for F8 deletion; it has to be an identical file (or of lower resolution). --Stefan2 (talk) 15:59, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
• Same with "20100718142338!Formation.jpg" of File:Formation.jpg. "Unnecessary" is not a valid speedy deletion criterion. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:00, 5 December 2015 (UTC)
• Same with File:Land.JPG. "image not used by any page, and with insufficient metadata to have any use" is not a valid speedy deletion criterion. If you think that the file lacks foreseeable use, the rule is that the file has to be listed at WP:FFD. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:02, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

"A valid speedy deletion rationale is also needed for File:Freda Dudley Ward.jpg. "Better quality" is not a valid reason for F8 deletion; it has to be an identical file (or of lower resolution). "

What do you think "better quality" means, if not "kept image of higher resolution, deleted image of lower resolution" ? Because that's what it means when I use it.

As for the others — ... be serious. Process is important, but it's not all-important. Remember, ignore all rules. I'm an admin because of, among other things, my judgment. Let me exercise it. I look at an image, and who uploaded it, and what else they've done, and what information they provided about the image, and how the image was used at the time. There are loads of unused images that I let stand if there's any conceivable use for them. The ones I delete are garbage images. Low-resolution blurry smears, incomprehensible diagrams intended to illustrate vanity spam articles that were deleted in 2005, scanned-in photocopies with no description. If there's any doubt about an image, I leave it untouched.

If you think I deleted an image by mistake, I'm willing to talk about that. But if you want me to restore a garbage image, just so that it can then be re-deleted as the subject of a Full And Proper Deletion Debate In Accordance With Procedure, you are wrong. DS (talk) 19:31, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

If there are valid reasons for deletion, then please amend the deletion rationales so that users can determine if the files were correctly deleted or not. As it currently stands, the deletion rationales contain no indication that the files satisfied a speedy deletion criterion in the first place. When files are deleted, sensible deletion rationales should be used so that users who look at the deletion logs aren't puzzled. Also, if File:Freda Dudley Ward.jpg really were a lower resolution copy of the file on Commons (with no other differences), then I'm not sure why I added {{ShadowsCommons}} instead of {{NowCommons}} in the first place. --Stefan2 (talk) 21:18, 5 December 2015 (UTC)

{{ShadowsCommons}}

When you rename a file which shadows Commons, can you please ensure you complete the following steps:

1. rename the file
2. update file links
3. remove the {{ShadowsCommons}} template
4. delete the redirect.

The reason you have received several CSD notices is that you did not delete the redirects. Not deleting the redirects prevents the use of the Commons image, which is after all the point of renaming the image. Thanks, BethNaught (talk) 22:42, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Request to consider modification of recent protecting of Webster University Thailand page

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Webster_University_Thailand

hello

you recently protected a page for this university.

please look at the links provided, the information is overwhelming and some type of critism section must exist because their have people who have both died and had their families threatened while attending this school

if you could add this following comment somethere to the page and then leave it protected it could very well save lives, please just look at the links and consider the gravity of this situation.

thank you

_____________________________________

Webster University Thailand has been the subject of ongoing public speculation and scrutiny over the practices of its administration and director in both the media and in lawsuits over the safety standards and maltreatment of students.

Webster University itself has acknowledged its failures in this campus through an internal review citing "dozens of significant trouble areas for the school, ranging from facilities overrun by pests to a toxic culture where students commonly believe their administrators are crooks."

What you are doing is known as Edit warring. If you have a concern about the article, you need to discuss the article on the talk page. Frankly, it's surprising you're not blocked for this edit war. Cheers, —GFOLEY FOUR!— 22:28, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

I agree with that assessment. Trying emotional blackmail will not help. What you wrote is a hit piece, with the most prominent claims of abuse based on a highly dubious source, the College Times article, plus a paragraph of serious allegations of misconduct cited to Wikipedia itself. There are blatant WP:BLP issues with the text you wrote. Just having the page protected, instead of blocking you, is rather generous of DragonflySixtySeven, and likely due to them only stopping the edit war without looking into the merits of the edits. Huon (talk) 23:18, 9 December 2015 (UTC)

Look through all four links, that college times article has been thoroughly vetted although some of the conclusions reached I do not agree with, all of the information backing it is authentic. The Bangkok Post article was released to the national press, the internal memo from webster is damning and the insighthigered article details not only reinforces what has been said but goes into significant detail about the high turnover rate of professors and the unethical business practices.

Fair enough that I should have been more restrained in what i wrote but how do you expect to react when you know the people who have been threatened? Something needs to be put up on that page for the safety and wellbeing of the students and needs to stay up, this is not intended to be a hit piece but to save peoples lives and something, anything, linking to those articles has to be on the wiki page.

please take due consideration in this matter and do the right thing. Thank you. (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 07:12, 10 December 2015 (UTC)

File:Deja Vu (Beyoncé song - sample).ogg

When moving a sound file, also move the corresponding subtitles (if any). TimedText:Deja Vu (Beyoncé song - sample).ogg.en.srt was under the old file name until I discovered the error today, and this means that the subtitles have been missing for over a year and a half. Unfortunately, Special:MovePage doesn't warn you if there are subtitles which need to be moved, so I'm not sure how to discover this. --Stefan2 (talk) 01:32, 21 December 2015 (UTC)

User talk:Cfsformations

You blocked this account quite some time ago (quite rightly, as it's a company username and their user page was promotional), but now the account operator has said that the account is for a single user and that they will not write about their company, and has suggested a compliant and transparent username (of the form "person at company"). So would you object if I unblock so they can request a name change? I'd keep an eye on their contributions for a little while. Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 15:43, 22 December 2015 (UTC)

Andrew Howard Barnes

Let's see. Did you block User:Andrew Howard Barnes because they are impersonating a real person and are not him? In that case, the draft biography is not an autobiography at all, and I will MFD it. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:50, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Well, 'impersonating' is a bit strong. "Didn't realize that you're not supposed to use someone's name when writing about them", more like; I guided the user through requesting a namechange, and am about to try showing them how to make their content more acceptable. DS (talk) 02:02, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Are they in favor of him or against him? Just curious. The biography is reasonably neutral and does not look nearly as promotional as most real autobiographies. Maybe I may decide not to MFD it, but just to comment that it isn't a real autobiography. Robert McClenon (talk) 03:18, 24 December 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of Star Wars science fair

Please un-delete Star Wars science fair as there was no consensus in deleting it. If you're wondering which article I'm talking about it's here [1]. It has a number of reliable sources and sufficient coverage which I pointed out in the talk page. Thank you--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 20:18, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) Hi Nadirali. You might want to review Wikipedia:Notability (books)#Criteria. The sources you posted seem to be mainly library sites proving the book exists rather than anything establishing notability. The two actual reviews you posted seem to be personal blogs rather than notable review sites. Anomie⚔ 20:48, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

There were also sources covering the subject that I posted on the talk page. And no, goodreads is considered a reliable source on Wikipedia and it's not a blog to my understanding. I don't use blogs as sources in compliance with WP policy. If you feel it does not meet WP:GNG, undelete it and open a nomination so consensus can be established. There you can explain your reasons why you feel it does not meet general notability. This happened with another previous article I created, also currently a stub, where an admin deleted it. When I requested an un-deletion and nomination, the consensus was keep with voters pointing to small, but reliable sources. If you still wish to delete it, you can un-delete and nominate it explaining your reason. I even provided coverage for this topic on the talk page including text and video coverage. If you un-deleted it, people would see and form a consensus.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 22:20, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

• I forgot to add, the library sources did not just acknowledge the book's existence, but does describe the topic as well.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 22:25, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

Are you seriously claiming that Goodreads is a reliable source in terms of notability? It's not. Your sources were WorldCat (proving that the book exists), the Queens NY Public Library Catalog (likewise), and a personal blog. Your external links were Goodreads (as mentioned above), and a page on Planet Science that doesn't even mention the book. The stuff you mentioned on the talk page is similarly useless: it's available via Google Books (again, proving that the book exists), and then there's blogs and library catalogs. And... that's it. Even all those videos you dug up - those are about the experiments, not the book. I'm not claiming that this book is not notable, I'm saying that so far, you have not shown that it is. There's no evidence. None of the evidence you supplied is valid. If you want it restored, show me real evidence. Okay? DS (talk) 23:50, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the draft

Thanks for the draft. To inform you, I won't be working on that for a few weeks since I'll be busy expanding other Star Wars pages, but this article is still on my agenda, so in case you wonder why it's not been edited in a while. Regards.--Nadirali نادرالی (talk) 23:24, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Hello and request to reload on The American School Foundation of Guadalajara, A.C.

Hello DragonflySixtyseven,

I am the Director of Development of the American School Foundation of Guadalajara (you may check this at our site www.asfg.mx) and worked last year with our staff on the article you deleted. All information is correct as it was taken from publications that were cited and our own web site. Our logo which is copyrighted by us was also deleted by you. Can you please explain what is the procedure to unpload the article you deleted? Can it be retrieved? Thanks for your guidance and help Respectfully, Claudia Claudia Grossi (talk) 16:13, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

Uninvolved admin opinion here (the deleting admin pinged me to look at it).

• American School Foundation of Guadalajara (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I took a look at the deleted material and logo-licensing issues. The logo is an easy case: if you claim it's not freely licensed (which is a reasonable situation), it is allowed to be present in the article as a non-free/fair-use exception. But it is allowed to be on Wikipedia at all if and only if it is in-use in that sort of scenario. As to the article itself, prior to your edits, it was a moderately neutral (WP:NPOV compliant) albeit mostly uncited short article. You added a ton of uncited claims (making the WP:V problem that has existed for 9 years much worse) and much of it was promotional in content and/or tone (not valid for our encyclopedia, but not uncommon for editors writing about their own topics). I have thus undeleted the article (which makes the logo file legitimate) but undone your edits. The school itself probably can have an article, being of high-school-level, but the article we currently have does indeed need substantial work to bring it into compliance with our policies and guidelines.

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.
