Hey, can you verify that this account is legitimate and is an alternative account that you created? Your logs don't show that you created this account. Instead, it was created on its own... Please let me know as soon as possible. Thanks :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:33, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Oshwah: it's mine. I deliberately went through the new account process as part of a training exercise. Nthep (talk) 11:38, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'll unblock the account now. Sorry for getting in the way; I just see a lot of impersonation attempts like this that LTAs try to pull. I just want to be safe and make sure... :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:44, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
Done. Account is unblocked. Thanks again! :-) ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 11:45, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

Llannerch
Hello Nthep
I noticed you have tagged my page for Llannerch for deletion. I have just checked around for reliable sources and have found one which proves the area is classed as a village. https://www.streetcheck.co.uk/postcode/ll170bb.
<remove the part I can read by following the link>
So this which handles postcodes confirms the area in and around Llannerch Park and Hall as a village. The following source also confirms this: https://www.doogal.co.uk/ShowMap.php?postcode=LL17%200BD and https://checkmypostcode.uk/ll170bd confirm the status of village. So I will be adding these in on the page and the deletion article page. If they say village, and are post codes. They then confirm it. Plus 70 people live around the park. Almost a hamlet population.

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!
Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

Rusty but still wondering
I'm a bit rusty coming back from a long (much needed) absence, so you may have this right and I may be off the mark... but, as an admin (who is simply refraining from requesting for the admin flag back for a while) and current OTRS member, I thought that any instance of copyrighted material being used in violation of the NFCCP and in violation of the content's licensing, was considered blatant copyright violations. This is the same reasoning I used for the revdel request you fulfilled without issue at Carlos Ghosn, I just used slightly different wording in the edit summaries for the tags. Am I missing something? — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 15:55, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Coffee: The Ghosn one wasn't a problem, the quote was completely irrelevant. This one I'm not sure is as clear cut and some people may wish to pursue the line that the quote is the best way to make the point and that it does meet NFCCP#1. If there's a consensus that the quote doesn't meet NFCCP#1 then it's open to reconsideration whether to revdel or not. Nthep (talk) 16:18, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
- Roger that, and thank you for the refresher/clarification. I will go poll the talk page now. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 17:51, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
- @Coffee: Give it 7 days, if there is no response or a consensus is reached, then I'll revdel. This is the same timeframe allowed for orphaned revisions of images so I think it's fair to treat text in the same way. Nthep (talk) 18:05, 28 November 2019 (UTC)
- It looks like the only consensus there will be limited but at least so far unanimous... obviously you can wait until later today as pre-discussed to make any move (if you feel that necessary), I just wanted to give you a heads up that I found and changed/removed additional copyvios that are quite clearly even more blatant violations than I first found. After a search with WikiBlame it appears the edits were added here. I'll go ahead and ping GoldbergHistory (talk · contribs), the editor who added the copyvio, so that they're aware of the issue here as well (not to be mean, I just want them to be aware of why such quoting without attribution at all is not acceptable per WP:COPYVIO). Would you like me to poll the talk page on this one too, or do you think these violations were bad enough to just warrant automatic revdel in this case? (I would have just used the revdel template at the page but I didn't want you to think I was forum-shopping or disrespecting your authority here in any way, as these much older copyvios technically would cause all of the edits I previously requested to be removed via revdel too.) — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 03:14, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- @Coffee: thanks for the update. This article is looking more and more like a deep hole of copyvios :-( See what GoldberHistory has to say and we'll take it from there. Thanks for the consideration too, I appreciate that but I wouldn't have seen it as forum-shopping or disrepect had you tagged it again without telling me first. Nthep (talk) 13:22, 5 December 2019 (UTC)
- Unfortunately that may be true. All I can do at this point is take them as I find them. I've sent an email to GoldbergHistory requesting they come comment here, but seeing as they don't seem to be a very active editor (12 edits since 2017) I have no idea how long that might take. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 02:38, 6 December 2019 (UTC)

- @Coffee: it looks like this has run its course. Have you got a first and last revision for revdel and I'll sort it out? Nthep (talk) 16:16, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
- Yes, here is the first revision (788725283) and here is the last revision (929327263). — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 18:52, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

Rationale use for specific logo
Hello, about your reversion of my edit on 2019 RFL League 1, I'd like you let me know why the Betfred League logo is used on a single season article instead of being on the League main page. My question comes from the fact that it is the logo of the league, not the emblem of an individual season.
Thanks in advance, - Fma12 (talk) 19:11, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
- @Fma12: you can put the logo on whichever article you think is best - I would point out that Betfred have not been the only sponsor of League 1, they are just the current one - however you removed one of the logos current uses but deleted both fair use rationales and didn't add a rationale for use on League 1 (rugby league). If you're going to do it please finish the job and not leave it half done with a logo hanging around without a rationale and/or use. Nthep (talk) 19:26, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
