Orphaned non-free image File:NinjaOne logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:NinjaOne logo.png. 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 section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:25, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

My response to your ping

I had my edit window open at the same time as Liz closed the AfD, and submitted my response after that happened, but I pinged yourself and SunnyScion so I've decided to copy the comments below to avoid confusion. Alpha3031 (t • c) 04:56, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

either it's continued success or through the coverage of the failure of a $2B company?

The existence of suitable sources is not attained through routine coverage, so no. There are thousands of billion dollar companies that nevertheless do not attain the requisite coverage meeting all 4 criteria (WP:SIRS), and many non-billion-dollar companies that do. The amount a company is worth is not an useful indicator of the ability to write an useful, encyclopedic article from reliable sources. Additionally, we cannot write articles based on future, yet unpublished sources. As a matter of policy, notability requires verifiable evidence (WP:NRV) that a topic has attracted (not will attract, has) attention over a significant period of time (WP:SUSTAINED). An argument that something would be notable through continued success is a strong argument that it is WP:TOOSOON to have an article on the topic on English Wikipedia, and if you must insist on having an article it should be on a different project with different rules.

@The Grid and the nom made no arguments, and the two of you are arguing from a ridiculous pov when there is mountains of evidence.

Excluding the nominator, the participants here are more than familiar with the criteria used for evaluating sources. Sources that do not meet WP:ORGDEPTH and WP:ORGIND cannot be used to establish the suitability of a standalone article. SunnyScion, WP:AUD is an exclusionary criteria, not an inclusionary one. The primary criteria (WP:SIRS) still need to be met, and if you wish to assert that a particular instance of routine coverage or announcement is not actually a routine announcement, that is your prerogative but you do actually need to provide evidence of that. Alpha3031 (t • c) 04:12, 14 October 2024 (UTC)

I find it ridiculous you closed another article as a speedy keep from the same nominator with almost the same rationale. Here.. SmileyShogun (talk) 16:32, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

If you wish to challenge the speedy keep, that is your prerogative. An SK1 would no longer be possible with any other editor expressing a delete rationale, and the comment from HighKing was unquestionably a valid deletion rationale. In any case, SK1s are eligible for immediate renomination. Hope that clears things up. Alpha3031 (t • c) 06:32, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

Please don't ever interact with me on my page again. I find you dialect smug, incredible and likely alternatively motivated. Your logic is wrong and you are trying to convince me your own wikilawyerig is the actual rules of Wikipedia . Overall, your entire presence is alarmingly distasteful to me and your tone is vulgarly obnoxious. I guess in this world we need to learn to appreciate all types but I prefer you avoid any further contact. SmileyShogun (talk) 17:34, 16 October 2024 (UTC)

NinjaOne

You kind of got railroaded on that one. I would ask the closing adim to draft the article. If not, they do have an administrative review you could apply for but I would go through the draft option first. There have been a number of suspicious edits on the cybersecurity pages. I'm sure with some minor changes it will be approved in AFC.SunnyScion (talk) 02:22, 17 October 2024 (UTC)

Thank.. I requested it be restored to draft... Not really sure what you need to get an article published but sheesh! Thx for the help.. SmileyShogun (talk) 04:20, 20 October 2024 (UTC)

@Liz can you please refund the NinjaOne page? I know your talk page is busy so I thought I would try here.

Your submission at Articles for creation: NinjaOne (October 28)

Your recent article submission has been rejected and cannot be resubmitted. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by CNMall41 was: This topic is not sufficiently notable for inclusion in Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Decided at [Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NinjaOne this AfD] that topic is not notable. Submitter will need to show what coverage since that time meets WP:ORGCRIT in order to show notability.

CNMall41 (talk) 19:47, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Hello, SmileyShogun! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! CNMall41 (talk) 19:47, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Please do not resubmit a rejected draft without either the reviewer reversing their rejection, or a consensus at the AFC help desk(preferably the former). 331dot (talk) 09:04, 22 November 2024 (UTC)

I was told during the AFC that the draft was close enough it could be refunded and resubmitted as long as I go through AFC, which is what I did. Why are you removing it from the cue with no notes or any information. I had to wait 6 weeks for it to get that far in the cue and now I have no other information to work with. The subject is clearly notable as there are plenty of sources that I have seen used in AFC discussions since this was closed. It's a top 5 company with plenty of available market reports and I rewrote a good portion and included new sources as requested. I don't understand why this is turning hostile. Portland Oregon has a 100 defunct bars that pass the notability test, it is odd that a $2B company that competes w Microsoft and Amazon isn't notable w 45 sources but a defunct bar in Portland w 5 reviews is.

Fred the Tree

I have reverted your addition of Fred the Tree to the Florida Keys template, as it is a trivial subject, and has no place in that template. I also have proposed that article for deletion because one cited source is a blog, which are generally regarded as not reliable sources, and because the other source is an advocacy group soliciting money, which I do not regard as being an independent source. You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but if you do I will probably nominate it for deletion. - Donald Albury 16:42, 20 November 2024 (UTC)

This was a dumb nomination because the subject has tons of press. I was trying to get others to contribute but I will add them myself. Please check before nominating in the future.. I found all these on the first page of Google:

November 2024

Hello, I'm Frost. I noticed that in this edit to Sarah Catherine Hook, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Frost 09:14, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

I would like to move the draft to mainspace since she is the lead actress in the new Cruel Intentions show on Prime. Definitely notable.. and I'd like to use the draft someone already worked on to preserve history  SmileyShogun (talk) 09:17, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Can you move it and delete the redirect. I will update it. SmileyShogun (talk) 09:19, 23 November 2024 (UTC)
