Hello, Industrial Metal Brain,

Please do not create User pages for non-existent editors. They will just be deleted. I saw your explanation but I still do not understand why you think these pages help improve the encyclopedia or help its editors. Do not create any pages that are not beneficial to the project or to the current group of editors who work here. Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 16:01, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, @Liz. Yes I know now I should have checked more carefully before I made that. Are these messages both about the same page?

I saw something missing and tried to "fix" it, but I will check more carefully before before acting in future. And if it relates to user pages I'll leave a message for the user suggesting an improvement instead of trying to do it myself.

Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 17:07, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I put "fix" in quotes meaning that is what I thought I was doing at the time. Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 17:30, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Liz, is it all fixed properly now? Do I need to do any more clean up or follow up? Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 23:59, 15 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draftifications

Hello. I wanted to reach out regarding a number of your recent draftifications and let you know that articles older than 90 days should not be draftified without prior consensus at AfD, per the result of this RfC. Please be mindful of this when moving pages to draft space in the future. Hey man im josh (talk) 16:58, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note that I've reverted your draftifications of the various years in Croatian television as a result. For what it's worth, I agree the articles are problematic and do not belong in main space in their current state. I noticed you did merge a couple, so I wanted to at least mention there's nothing stopping you from redirecting them to a merged and relevant topic. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:20, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hey man im josh. Yes, I was merging them, AfD doesn't sound like the right process? A lot of them were completely empty, just headings, most had one dot point. I moved them to draft space to modify before combining the nearly empty years into decades. Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 17:24, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:PROD may have been the best course of action, but AfD would be technically correct. In this case, redirecting to a merged topic does make the most sense. The problem with moving to draft space is that, after 6 months, drafts which have not been edited are deleted. If we redirect them instead it preserves the page history, which is the ideal course of action if your goal is a decades article instead of a yearly one. Again, I agree that they were problematic, but I also work to ensure the draftification rules are followed, even if I sometimes agree that items aren't fit for main space. Hey man im josh (talk) 17:27, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hey man im josh By "redirecting them" do you mean delete everything on the page and replace it with a redirect? Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 20:45, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, that's fine because the edit history is preserved. Hey man im josh (talk) 20:53, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Somebody nominated them for AfD as soon as you put them back in main space. I added the redirects but I left the AfD box above it, I hope that's right. Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 08:04, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Hey man im josh

By the way, should I call you "Josh" if I am referring to you but I don't need a response? e.g. "as Josh suggested above", or if I have already tagged you in the thread but I want to add another comment or question before you have replied? Or have I misinterpreted your username? Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 08:13, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 08:13, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

IMB, per his userpage, his name is Josh. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:47, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Josh is fine. Also, there's no need to be pinging me in your edit summaries when making these changes. I'll check out the AfD when I get a chance. Hey man im josh (talk) 11:55, 22 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

Hello User:Industrial Metal Brain. When requesting a move, please include some rational. Otherwise, it's much harder to argue for or against you. I'm specifically talking about this. Esolo5002 (talk) 05:14, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. It seemed self explanatory, but I'll try to think of something. Is there a page on the other sub-topic that I haven't found? If so, I'll request a merge instead. Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 05:37, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

List of Croatian television presenters moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to List of Croatian television presenters. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources and may not meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines for lists. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit for review" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 00:08, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Significa liberdade, is it a list. The list class isn't supposed to need references because they mostly just link to other articles. Is there a broader topic that would be notable? Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 00:17, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there! Standalone lists still require references and have their own notability guidelines, which I recommend you review. If you're looking for somewhere to just list articles by specific characteristics, categories may be more appropriate ([[Category:Croatian television presenters]] already exists). Let me know if you have any follow-up questions. I'm happy to help! Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 00:20, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Significa liberdade. I built it from the category, I thought it might be helpful to readers who are unfamiliar with the mechanics of Wikipedia. If that's not useful maybe I'll just delete it. How do I do that without needing a consensus debate?

What are lists supposed to do that categories don't already? The help pages deal with them separately and I've not seen any they differentiate that clearly. Industrial Metal Brain (talk) 02:37, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's acceptable to have overlapping categories and lists. In accordance with the notability guidelines for lists, "One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources ... The entirety of the list does not need to be documented in sources for notability, only that the grouping or set in general has been". Does that make sense?

If you would like to have the page deleted, as the author, you can tag it for G7 speedy deletion. Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 15:34, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
