SmokeyJoe (talk) 12:12, 4 May 2021 (UTC)Geesje Kwak
[edit]I read your translation of Geesje Kwak. It made me wonder why you added some details that are not in the source article. Fr example, You write that she lived in the Govert Flinckstraat, Zwolle. There are quite a few streets named after Govert Flinck in the Netherlands, but Kwak didn't live in Zwolle, but Amsterdam. The Tweede van Swindenstraat is also in Amsterdam. (the Dapperbuurt is a neighborhood, not a city). How did you come up with this?Vexations (talk) 12:18, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @Vexations, thanks for noticing and correcting the mistakes. Well, first of all, I just understand the basic Dutch (most of the texts were initially machine translated tho), and I searched in Google maps for those neighborhood, and the wrong ones came in first (as you said there are multiple neighborhoods of the same name). So then I looked up on Wikipedia, and found there's a page about Zwolle, so I just thought that might be it. Anyway, it was a mistake and thanks for correcting it. Peace! -- Tame (talk) 12:34, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- Tamingimpala, I don't think it's a good idea to use machine translations. Machine translations are freely accessible to anyone and continue to improve. I don't speak, say Bengali: If I want to look up a topic that is only covered in Bengali Wikipedia, I'm better off using a new machine translation than reading an article that was created using an outdated machine translation. I don't want to discourage you from editing Wikipedia, but perhaps translating from a language you do not speak is not the best use of your time. Vexations (talk) 13:30, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Vexations, As I said, I understand the basics of Dutch. And I only created a handful of articles from foreign languages, and those I did, I understand the language of. (i.e., German, Bengali). Thanks! Tame (talk) 13:40, 15 May 2021 (UTC)

DYK nomination for Lisl Goldarbeiter?
[edit]I guess she is an interesting person, and maybe she is worth of a Did You know? Like Did you know Lisl Goldarbeiter was the only Austrian Miss Europe? Or the first non-american to win the Miss Universe title? Or something else you see as more important in her life? Paradise Chronicle (talk) 18:17, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, Sure! That would be cool. -- Tame (talk) 18:18, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Well then you have 10 days to think of a hook. An interesting question. Check WP:DYK for the requirements and also see the DYKs of last few DYKs to get an idea what is possible.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 18:29, 16 May 2021 (UTC)
- Just reviewed the DYK section and noticed that one has 7 days instead of 10 days (as I wrote to you) to nominate an article for DYK.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 07:23, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle Ya, I was confused. Tame (talk) 08:43, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Maybe you could quickly see how I have arranged the sources for Lisl Goldarbeiter at the DYK. It is encouraged that it is done like this. I'm no pro either and also a beginner. It is only my second DYK, I do an edit in.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 18:29, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, yeah, I saw what you did. I also thought of doing as it is encouraged to do in the DYK instructions. Thanks mate, I hope it gets through. -- Tame (talk) 19:28, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Btw I noticed you've created a lot of articles, and many of them caused you problems, like getting blocked several times. And I appreciate your helping out editors who are or were in similar situations, also helping and guiding newbies like me. -- Tame (talk) 19:30, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, I haven't yet received any notifications regarding the DYK's. How long does it usually take to get a review? Do you have an idea? Or is it indefinite? Like I checked March 11th section is already expired. -- Tame (talk) 08:30, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Women in Red
[edit]Hi there, Tamingimpala, and welcome to Women in Red. You should be a useful member of the project as in the short time you have been on Wikipedia, you have already created over 20 biographies of women, most of which are well presented and informative. I see you are interested in bringing Fredericka Martin up to GA standard. It's coming along really well but it would help if you added a legacy section and one or two more images. The lead should also be expanded. You might also find it useful to look through our Primer for creating women's biographies. In connection with Draft:Victoria Selbach, you really need to find out if any of her works are included in the permanent collections of notable museums or galleries or whether she has been extensively reviewed in art books or journals. At the moment, the article seems to be premature. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 09:17, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Ipigott, Thank you so much for taking time to review my articles, and giving some useful advice on Fredericka Martin, it means a lot coming from a reputative editor like you. <3 -- Tame (talk) 09:25, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Ipigott BTW, do you think Lisl Goldarbeiter could be a probable nominee for DYK, as user @Paradise Chronicle certainly thinks so? -- Tame (talk) 09:30, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Certainly. Try to put together a hook.--Ipigott (talk) 09:32, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Fredericka Martin, too BTW. But Fredericka Martin must be nominated today, as today is the 7th day after its creation.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 09:44, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle Ya I'm on it. Installed the scripts, and currently filling out the forms. Tame (talk) 09:48, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, idk how does that look! Tame (talk) 10:23, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- As to me it is fine. The second source doesn't explicitly say Miss Universe, but she is mentioned as Miss Universe at the International Pageant of Pulchritude in Galveston, the predecessor of the Miss Universe contest. Maybe be prepared for a question like this. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 10:43, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, also how about F. Martin? Direct sourcing to urls is tough on this one, as sources are mostly of publications and archived links. -- Tame (talk) 10:47, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- This one is good, too. Is this source helpful to provide an URL? Then also, the newspapers archive is accessible through the Wikipedia Library, so I guess this shouldn't be a problem for DYK. If there is any further doubt, let me know. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 11:03, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, I read the article that you linked, I'm not sure if its reliable. Cause it's written by a person who claims to be the cousin of Freddie. And also the website Albavolunteer doesn't seem to be an independent source. Like even searching it up on Google doesn't bring much results. Anyway, these are just my thoughts, I'm no expert on these yet. Btw what u think tho, as you are the way more experienced one? -- Tame (talk) 11:39, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Anyway, I have put it on as a source. -- Tame (talk) 11:50, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Sorry for the little late reply. I guess it is a good secondary source to show that what is only is accessible trough archives, actually happened. And sure, sometimes accounts of relatives don't give a fair overview of the subject but to show she was active in the Spanish civil war, as to my account this one is enough. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 12:10, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, Btw there were some mistakes that happened in the dyk template by me, as you can see in the below discussion. I moved my template to correct date, can you check if I had messed up anything again, or everything is fine. Thanks in advance. -- Tame (talk) 12:15, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- You created the Fredericka Martin on the 11th May not the 12th May where it is located now. Paradise Chronicle (talk) 12:23, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Paradise Chronicle, Yeah, I'm currently in Asia, so I mess up with the UTC every time. Tame (talk) 12:24, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- And just on a general note. I sometimes use a biography archive for an article I create. Then thanks to this biography archive article I know for what to look for in other sources, which one doesn't find through a simple google search. But then also to calm you, seeing the Fredericka Martin article, I guess you are on a fine way to have a successful Wikipedia career. Never mind for these little DYKs difficulties. These are a few clicks for the experienced Wikipedia editors and you are new, you do not need to know that yet. We are just glad you are here.Paradise Chronicle (talk) 12:26, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Removing the date from Did you know
[edit]Can I ask why you are removing today's date from Template talk:Did You Know? It's had the consequence of messing up the syntax so today's date has been removed as a result of you changing 18 to 16. If you put one of your nominations in the wrong space, please feel free to move it up to the correct day but please do not just unilaterally change the section header. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 11:57, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @The C of E, I didn't know that I was supposed to move it up to the correct day. I thought it's done by changing date through editing. It was a mistake, I'm a new editor, so assume good faith. -- Tame (talk) 12:04, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- That's OK, I was AGF with you as I had assumed it was an accident but when you did it again despite me saying in the edit summary not to do it, it did lead me to wonder what was going on. I have asked at WT:DYK if someone can fix the template. Next time if you do put a nomination in the wrong date, just move it up (most of the time it doesn't really matter as it's still within 7 days of mainspacing). The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 12:07, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- Also, please be careful to only move your nomination, not the whole section nominations. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 12:11, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
- @The C of E, I didn't see the edit summary, so that caused the mess up for the second time! Sorry for the troubles. -- Tame (talk) 12:11, 18 May 2021 (UTC)

Tagging articles
[edit]Hello, Tamingimpala,
I retagged Raad Shakir with a new PROD because the one you posted was undated. Rather than cutting and pasting code when tagging articles for deletion, I've found it very helpful to use Twinkle which will format notices correctly, tag the talk page and post a notice to the page creator once you set up your Preferences to do so. The program will show up as a tab on the menu at the top of the article (but I'm not sure how this appears if you edit on a mobile device). And if you ever tag pages for Speedy Deletion, Twinkle will present all of the possible criteria for deletion that might apply and you can select the correct one although you still must know which criteria fits. The program really makes things easier so I encourage new editors to try it out. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 17:10, 21 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Liz, thanks for the heads up. I will definately use that from now on. -- Tame (talk) 17:15, 21 May 2021 (UTC)

[edit]Hi there,
You removed our edit which had corrected our principal's name. We understand our name implies a conflict of interest, however this wasn't a disputed fact. The source attached confirms his name is Michael Hensley, not Mitchell. Please check sources before you make erroneous edits.

Renault FT: Revision history
[edit]I am new here,but try to put some short info. I hope to have some more time later to learn more about editing and do proper citaion/sourcing. Sorry for inconveniences if any.
There is a source to the change I made, with own word of the very constructor of both replicas: http://www.pancerni.com.pl/index.php/%C5%BCycie-fundacji/108-o-fundacji.html (official web of foundation, established by r.i.p. Robert Tirczakowski ) Johanvonred (talk) 13:55, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
Re. to: Hello, I'm Tamingimpala. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Renault FT, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Tame (talk) 13:19, 22 May 2021 (UTC)

- Hi @Innisfree987, FYI, the website that it indicates the text is copied from is Artsandculture.google.com. This website itself copies texts from wikipedia. As it did from International Pageant of Pulchritude in that case. I copied the text from the lead of that wiki article, not the bogus arts and culture website. If you still think its copy vio, then put the tag back on the article, also on the main article too. Thanks. -- Tame (talk) 09:16, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know the original source. Here is information on how to attribute copying within Wikipedia: WP:Copying_text_from_other_sources#How_about_copying_from_one_Wikipedia_article_to_another?

Please don't copy material you find elsewhere online
[edit]Hello. I am Diannaa and I am a Wikipedia administrator. Prose you find online is almost always copyright, and cannot be copied here; it's against the copyright policy of this website to do so. All prose must be written in your own words. The Wikipedia copyright policy and its application are complex matters, and you should not edit any more until you have taken the time to read and understand our copyright policy. There's a simplified version of our copyright rules at Wikipedia:FAQ/Copyright. — Diannaa 🇨🇦 (talk) 10:36, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, thanks for the heads up, I will definitely be extra careful about copyright from now on. And I've already fixed most of my copyright issues, which was appreciated by other users. Thank! -- Tame (talk) 11:03, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- Again on Delorean Highway. This is your final warning. Further violation of Wikipedia's copyright policy will result in you being blocked from editing.— Diannaa 🇨🇦 (talk) 20:50, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, What was violated on that? Tame (talk) 20:58, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaam, I copied the texts from the pre existing article, Jay Watson, I also did declare it in the edit summary, as per [1]Please check the article. Tame (talk) 21:00, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, If the texts are copy vio, then they should have been removed from the Jay Watson article in the first place. How am I supposed to know if the texts already on another article, which have been there for a long time are copy vio? -- Tame (talk) 21:03, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, see the edit summary of revision: 1025968965 Tame (talk) 21:05, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- and I did resolve most of the possible copy vios that were previously done, which was aprreciated by @Innisfree987. Only two more left, which I would resolve later. Tame (talk) 21:08, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- (edit conflict × 4) Unfortunately the user who reported it to me did not notice (and neither did I) that you did include an edit summary providing attribution, because you did so in a later edit. the so-called source they provided to me is a Wikipedia mirror. Sorry for the mistake.A request: Please don't repeatedly edit the page after you have pinged me! I have been trying to reply repeatedly for the last 15 minutes but have been unable to save my edit due to edit conflicts!— Diannaa 🇨🇦 (talk) 21:13, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, I mean I was confused and paranoid, like u giving me a block warning (the worst nightmare)!!!!, despite I'm being confident that this time there literally can't be any vio. Anyway, I appreciate your replying fast. A weight off the chest. Btw I will not rapidly reply from now on...lol the edit conflicts! And it was the second time that this happened (the mirror web thing) Tame (talk) 21:18, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

- @Diannaa, Can I use texts from Wikisource, since they are under public domain? For instance [2]? -- Tame (talk) 12:54, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- That particular page is not a good example of public domain material that is available to us, because there's insufficient source information; it appears to be a newspaper clipping or a page from a book, but it doesn't tell us the actual source or the publication date. A google search reveals that it's from https://books.google.ca/books?id=zXEEAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA359&lpg=PA359 this book. So it's better to use the original source in your citation rather than Wikisource.In general though, public domain content is okay to copy, as long as attribution is given. This is typically done by including the template
{{PD-notice}}
as part of your citation. So for the above example, your citation would be as follows:<ref>{{cite book|last1=Willard|first1=Frances Elizabeth |last2=Livermore|first2=Mary Ashton |title=A Woman of the Century: Fourteen Hundred-seventy Biographical Sketches Accompanied by Portraits of Leading American Women in All Walks of Life|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=zXEEAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA359|year=1893|publisher=Moulton|isbn=978-0-7222-1713-9|pages=359}} {{PD-notice}}</ref>
— Diannaa (talk) 13:14, 1 June 2021 (UTC)- @Diannaa, not sure if that's your thing, but a discussion that I started on the reliability noticeboard has gone dormant without reaching any consensus. Can you possibly revive it by sharing your observance or thoughts?

And it was the second time that this happened (the mirror web thing) Tame (talk) 21:18, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- (edit conflict × 4) Unfortunately the user who reported it to me did not notice (and neither did I) that you did include an edit summary providing attribution, because you did so in a later edit. the so-called source they provided to me is a Wikipedia mirror. Sorry for the mistake.A request: Please don't repeatedly edit the page after you have pinged me!

- @Diannaa, see the edit summary of revision: 1025968965 Tame (talk) 21:05, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaa, If the texts are copy vio, then they should have been removed from the Jay Watson article in the first place. How am I supposed to know if the texts already on another article, which have been there for a long time are copy vio? -- Tame (talk) 21:03, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
- @Diannaam, I copied the texts from the pre existing article, Jay Watson, I also did declare it in the edit summary, as per [1]Please check the article. Tame (talk) 21:00, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

June 2021
[edit]Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Rollback granted
[edit]Hi Tamingimpala. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Chetsford (talk) 21:45, 9 June 2021 (UTC)

Following up on Fredericka Martin
[edit]Hi, I wanted to follow up to see if you still planned to clean up the copyvio at Fredericka Martin. If not I can reach out to an admin for advice about how to handle the page (given the extent of the issue, if not rectified it may just need to be deleted), but I wanted to check one last time in case you were still interested in fixing the page. It’s up to you; I realize the page was created before the copyright concerns were brought to your attention. It could just be easier to delete and start again (i.e. WP:TNT).

Hi Tamingimpala, Can you please forward me all of the information - bots output, personal opinion etc., based on which you made your decision. This will allow me to address the specific issues based on which the article was rejected. Thank you Rybkovich (talk) 21:27, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, this should help: https://copyvios.toolforge.org/?lang=en&project=wikipedia&title=Draft%3AOne+World+Family+Commune&oldid=&action=search&use_engine=1&use_links=1&turnitin=0 -- Tame (talk) 21:34, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, the entire article doesn't fall under copy vio, there's a specific passage that is inserted falls under copy vio (highlighted in red from the COPYVIO results). I see the intent there, you meant to use it as a statement of a person, but you need to insert the source as a citation right after the copied texts. And use of exact copied texts should be as minimal as possible, and shouldn't be used if not absolutely necessary for the fulfillment of an article. -- Tame (talk) 21:37, 23 July 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you. Regarding the:
- We could see the benefit of going beyond the mortal-minded status quo programming in order to provide for one another the health benefits in exchanging hormones and energies in right sexing and the accompanying increased telepathic communication, while at the same time ridding ourselves of false programming of shame, guilt, jealousy and possessiveness.
- It's a single sentence, and it is important to hear the description from the point of view of the cult member. Regular, ritualistic group sex was controversial then as it is now, the description relates the reason that members participated in the taboo practice, to them it was creating an emotional as well as foundational bond between each other. I have it in quotation marks and cited, weird that the bot didn't pick it up. Do you think it would be clearer if I separated it out as a paragraph? Rybkovich (talk) 00:02, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- PS I saw Tame Impala in Boise, Idaho on their first tour of the US. In a pretty small venue/bar and there were not too many people there as no one heard about them yet. It was great! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRriBinv05s Rybkovich (talk) 00:24, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, the article can be informative even without that passage, however, since you seem very keen to use it, you should use as less text as possible and must attribute the texts with an inline citation. See:WP:LONGQUOTE. And this draft might be seen by some editors as it contains some original research. Original research is research that consists of collecting and organizing material from existing sources within the provisions of this and other content policies is fundamental to writing an encyclopedia. The best practice is to research the most reliable sources on the topic and summarize what they say in your own words, with each statement in the article attributable to a source that makes that statement explicitly. Source material should be carefully summarized or rephrased without changing its meaning or implication. Take care not to go beyond what is expressed in the sources, or to use them in ways inconsistent with the intention of the source, such as using material out of context. In short, stick to the sources. See:WP:STICKTOSOURCE.
- PS. Nice to know you are a tame impala fan, and old tame impala is gold, really loved the live of lucidity. Cheers. Tame (talk) 08:32, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, after finishing reading the article once again, I've noticed some more issues, first of all the lead section needs to re-edited. "The One World Family Commune (OWFC), is a new religious movement commune or a cult if referred to negatively", it's not a good line to start an article with. Especially the latter, part, "if referred to negatively." That's not how an encyclopedia article should be. It sounds more like a blog post? See: MOS:FIRST. And also there are a lot of problems in the latter sections which would take numerous amount of time to mention. I can do some copy edits on this draft if you wish. Nonetheless, the current state of this draft is not suitable to be accepted as a main space article. -- Tame (talk) 09:19, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- Let's not be rude - "It sounds more like a blog post?." I was not rude when I pointed out that you made an obvious fault missing my citations, the original reason for your rejection of my draft. Re my grammar, I'm an appellate attorney and have multiple published works, all peer reviewed, both in Russian and English. What is the official way to appeal your decision? Rybkovich (talk) 19:03, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, I didn't mean to sound rude, but several sentences in the draft might get any reviewer (including me) suspect that it may contain original work. The lead needs a subtle rewrite. Also some latter section. In wikipedia, the best practice is to summarize or rephrase texts from source in your own words, but one should care not to go beyond what is expressed in sources. The reason maybe I used the words "blog post" is because I've been a blogger and columnist for several years, so I might have just reconciled the tone used in the draft with my writing style. I meant that in a good way, I didn't mean to undermine your efforts or ability. In any case, it was a poor judgment of words. Specifying problems in the lead:
- The first sentence (as previously mentioned).
- It was formed in 1967, in San Francisco by 51 year old year old artist, cafe owner and UFO enthusiast Allen Noonan. Who opened the first first vegetarian restaurant in the city, completely operated by the commune's members. Rather, "It was formed in 1967, in San Francisco by 51 year old year old artist, cafe owner, and UFO enthusiast Allen Noonan, who opened the first first vegetarian restaurant in the city, completely operated by the commune's members".
- Christian themes of good and evil and humanity's eventual ascendance to higher state of being. Rather, "a higher state of being."
- Let's not be rude - "It sounds more like a blog post?." I was not rude when I pointed out that you made an obvious fault missing my citations, the original reason for your rejection of my draft. Re my grammar, I'm an appellate attorney and have multiple published works, all peer reviewed, both in Russian and English. What is the official way to appeal your decision? Rybkovich (talk) 19:03, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
As I said earlier, the draft has improved a lot over time and after some minor edits, its good to go.
Tame (talk) 19:20, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- And if you want to officially appeal my decision despite me trying to be helpful, you should contact ad admin. User:Diannaa could be one. Tame (talk) 19:26, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- Your last response is very collaborative and helpful, which is unlike a lot (not the majority) administrators here, who are often concerned with proving that they're right, rather than the purpose of the tasks which they took on. I'm an administrator on wiki-commons, primarily dealing with copyright issues. I finally stopped doing it, because of such ongoing and frustrating debates, primarily between fellow administrators.
- I asked for a way to appeal, only because I didn't want to get into another, back and forth, I'm right you're wrong argument. Which I see is not the case here. I totally agree with your first point, re starting with who. Re "Christian themes of good and evil" I would leave it because of the "Christian themes" part as the cult (or community) is another important aspect besides UFOs. I will think of a better way of making that point. Rybkovich (talk) 20:20, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, I myself have encountered numerous amount of toxicity from bureaucrats and admins (not in this account, its relatively new. I used to edit as an anonymous since 2014).
- Your draft is almost good to go, just fix the subtle issues, and resubmit, I or another reviewer will surely accept it next time. -- Tame (talk) 20:26, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Rybkovich, I've checked with your your new edits, they are far more better. -- Tame (talk) 20:33, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
- Great, thank you for your help. Rybkovich (talk) 20:44, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi,
You recently declined this article stating that the references are unreliable. To help edit, can I please know which of them isn't okay. Cheers 00:56, 24 July 2021 (UTC)~~
Good evening, I am writing after the article I created about Menotti Lerro has been declined. In my opinion it is not really true that the article "is not supported by reliable sources": there are three important monographs written by known scholars about Menotti Lerro and many articles in known reviews by known scholars. In addition he is author of around 40 books and he has received imporant prizes. Moreover is an accademic with important publications, and he also had appreciation abroud. I think wikipedia needs to give clearer reasons to decline an author. For this reason I would like to ask you help to improve my article and keep it as the author deserves. Best wishes.Gingeksace (talk) 18:09, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, Hey, welcome to Wikipedia. While everyone can create and submit an article to be reviewed and be accepted, there are certain guidelines and factors that the submission has to maintain by. The draft that you submitted not only doesn't have any reliable independent source that suggest the notability of the topic, but also is very poorly written grammar wise. The tone is not encyclopedic. Also it has some COI issues. I assume you're pretty new to Wikipedia, hence I would suggest you to see these pages: WP:Author, WP:YFA,WP:RS
-- Tame (talk) 18:32, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi, thank for this. Of course I am not English and for this reason I can understand about my not perfect grammar. I thought some one could help to polish my article to give it an encyclopedic tone. If possible, I would like to ask you to help with it and try to check if there are the minimum reliable independent source (I see the author has been object of students dissertation at University and well known scholars have written monographs about him. He is on many world wide libraries (20 books at Cambridge, Oxford, Princeton, Harvard etc...). I am not English but I am pretty expert in literature to see that maybe this author has earned his own page on WP. Please, is it possible from you to help a bit to improve this page? Regards, Gingeksace (talk) 18:49, 25 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi, I think your way has been a bit rude to me. I am very sorry considering also I asked you to help a bit to fix my article. Moreover, I do not understand why you say there are not reliable sources when I added so many citations from relevant monographs about this author.Gingeksace (talk) 08:10, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, Hello. Hope you're having a nice day.
- Having an article 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!
- -- Tame (talk) 08:21, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
To be honest, a bit disappointing in this case is to get declined without any real good reason: how can you indeed say that my sources are not reliable? (three academic monographs from well known scholars about the author...). I am pretty expert in the field of literature to suspect you are probably wrong about it, therefore I would be glad if you could try to better evaluate and as I asked you more times to give a hand to fix the article instead to ask for deletion... Is that impossible from your point of view to fix my article?Gingeksace (talk) 08:35, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, I understand you're new to Wikipedia, hence the reasons provided doesn't seem relatable to you. Please go to Teahouse, and post a query there, the very friendly users will surely guide you through what's wrong your submission. Have a nice day.
- -- Tame (talk) 08:43, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
I think it is enough for me, but I believe you did not give a good reason to support your point of view. In my opinion, the article could be reduced pretty easily (in particular from a native English speaker), leaving for instance just the essential. But you do not seem interested in it, but only in deletion of an author considered one of the most interesting in the contemporary period. In my opinion expert users like you on Wikipedia should be more open and supportive and interested in what other propose... It is indeed a bit rude just cut without maybe really understand the value of the subject which has been submitted. Anyway, have a nice day too.Gingeksace (talk) 09:00, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, The topic might be notable (even tho the sources provided in the draft do not suggest so), but the way its is written isn't suitable to be accepted in Wikipedia. Either you should rewrite it with correct grammar and tone, also find out some other credible sources and add them in the draft and resubmit, or ask other editors whom you might know to help you with rewriting the draft.
- You asked me if I can help you with rewriting, unfortunately, that's not my field of work. I review drafts, I do not fix them.
- In any case, I appreciate your efforts to contribute to Wikipedia.
- -- Tame (talk) 09:13, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
I think the sources I provided show clearly that it is notable... (I do not see what is missing from your point of view to be notable...). Anyway, does not matter... All the best. :) Gingeksace (talk) 14:31, 27 July 2021 (UTC)

Hi, Tamingimpala. I'm a longtime editor and believe that Bokksu article definitely meets GNG- every single reference there is an independent reliable source providing significant coverage. And I honestly don't see a neutrality issue- each sentence is a statement of fact; all figures, processes and awards reference inline citations. Wondering if you can specify why you declined Bokksu in more detail. Thanks.
Wikipedical (talk) 16:22, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Wikipedical, The submission was declined not because of its sources, but because it appears to read more like an advertisement than an entry in an encyclopedia. The whole submission reads like an promotional PR for the subject. Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view. And the reference are just promo articles. However, if you feel the subject is worthy of inclusion to Wikipedia, please rewrite your submission to comply with Wikipedia's policies.
- -- Tame (talk) 19:11, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- I've reviewed the draft again, and there's really no judgmental language or spammy adjectives; every sentence is a neutral statement of fact citing a reliable source, extremely similar to the language at Japan Crate. The references are not promotional either- there are simply some positive reviews, like an article about a film would include. What specific sentence or sentences to you are problematic? -- Wikipedical (talk) 23:30, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Wikipedical, first of all, there were evidence of unpaid editing stated here User talk:Filipinofox. Now, according to your review... there's really no judgement of peacock or puffery terms? Well I disagree. Here are some examples of terms and sentences that are non encyclopedic:
- Taing was frustrated with being unable to find Japanese snacks in the United States so Bokksu was founded as a solution.
- In the first two years, the company managed to sell 500,000 units to over 75 countries. Items are packed in Osaka and then shipped worldwide. It offers two types of services - classic and tasting, with difference in number of items and price. Now, this whole passage reads like its from a companies website to promote their service, or from a press release.
- Why is there an external link inside the prose: "strawberries and then re-hydrates them with white chocolate. 1"??
- And the sources used in the draft are mainly press releases, which are not accepted. The whole draft reads like an essay written for the clients to subscribe to their services.
- Encyclopedia articles need to be written from a neutral point of view and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources, not just to materials produced by the creator of the subject being discussed. This is important so that the article can meet Wikipedia's verifiability policy and the notability of the subject can be established.
- PS. extremely similar to the language at Japan Crate. Just because there are nonstandard articles exist on Wikipedia, it can't be an excuse for the inclusion of yet another. Tame (talk) 09:16, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- I've reviewed the draft again, and there's really no judgmental language or spammy adjectives; every sentence is a neutral statement of fact citing a reliable source, extremely similar to the language at Japan Crate. The references are not promotional either- there are simply some positive reviews, like an article about a film would include. What specific sentence or sentences to you are problematic? -- Wikipedical (talk) 23:30, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- Regarding the paid editing- I'm a neutral editor here, and while I also saw that talk page message, the editor asserted the evidence is "off wiki," so there was no actual evidence presented (or any I could find in the user's history). That aside, I still think you're mistaken that most of the sources are "press releases." They are actually reviews or features with bylines. Taking the first paragraph as an example- that the company sold 500,000 units in 75 countries, packs items in Osaka and ships worldwide, and offers two types of boxes – those are all neutral facts. And the sources presented are Tokyo Cheap, Womens Health, Thrillist, and Yahoo reviews/profiles, which are completely independent of Bokksu, not press releases or sites that regurgitate them. I've been an editor long enough to know the advertisement/spam guideline is mostly cautioning against language like "to subscribe to Bokksu, please visit Bokksu.com" or something like that, which isn't present anywhere in the draft. But I will re-word the sentences above. -- Wikipedical (talk) 15:50, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- And regarding Japan Crate- that's not a "nonstandard" article by any means. It's a similar article that cites independent coverage in reliable sources, meeting GNG. -- Wikipedical (talk) 15:52, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Wikipedical, No offense, but putting everything aside, if Japan Crate is a standard Wikipedia entry to you, IDKWTS. You know, there's a reason why everybody makes meme of Wikipedia's reliability, lack of quality articles and poor verifiability are among them, which that particular article pretty much conflates.
- Anyway, back to the draft, resubmit it and I or other reviewers might accept it next time if it seems to meet the guidelines. Hope you have a wonderful day. -- Tame (talk) 16:00, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Wikipedical, PS. Just to let you know, searching upon the internet, there seems to be a lot of good sources about the topic which are not included in the draft. At AFC, a draft is usually reviewed as per what's in it. Not many times we do got around and check the sources ourselves. -- Tame (talk) 16:05, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- I didn't say Japan Crate is a standard article, I said it's not "nonstandard." It still meets GNG, I would probably vote to keep it in a deletion discussion about notability. Also, the last sentence you wrote is very concerning. If you're reviewing draft articles, you absolutely do need to check the sources within the article before calling them press releases. I will work on the draft based on your concerns above and get back to you. -- Wikipedical (talk) 16:11, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

I worked a bit on my article
[edit]Hi Tamingimpala, I just worked a bit more on my article and I would be really glad if you could give a look before I resubmit it. Do you think it may be better like this? Best wishes, Gingeksace (talk) 02:36, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, Hi.
- One quick note, please do not create a new section for a topic that already has been discussed previously in a different existing section.
- Now, the draft has improved a lot, good work. But I'm afraid, there are still many problems such as with grammar and the use of words.
- One example is here: "he gets a Scholarship from the University of Salerno to study abroad and begins the Masters' degree in “The Body and Representation”.
- The correct sentence should be: "he got a scholarship......began....".
- If the draft only had these copy editing (grammar, tone, style) issues, I'd have zero problems taking the time to fix them. But there are other issues, and that are mainly with the sourcing. Now, you have used mainly books as a source, and I'm afraid some of them are not to be considered as independent, reliable, and verifiable. You need to add more reliable and independent "Inline citations."
- Also, there are way too many books in the bibliography section. I think the title of the section should be "Selected works." A bibliography is a list of all of the sources you have used (whether referenced or not) in the process of researching your work. Maybe, you have mistaken it with list of books written by the subject?
- And many of the works in this section are unreferenced. It is not necessary to cite all the books written by the subject (but is recommended to do so), but if you added the list from a single source that has the list of all the books written by the subject, then you should use that source in top of the section.
- I suggest you remove the books that are unreferenced and only keep those that are referenced.
- The "critical reception" section has many problems with its WP:NPOV, grammar, clarity, citation. It needs to be rewritten. Tame (talk) 09:49, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, My suggestion to you for getting help from Wikipedia:Teahouse still stands. Please ask for help with your draft in Teahouse, and you will surely get some help.
- -- Tame (talk) 09:54, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you a lot for your help and your kindness. I will contact Teahouse to ask if they help a bit with this. Have a nice evening. All the bestGingeksace (talk) 22:45, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
Hi, I wanted to let you know I got some help in Teahouse to clean the article (thanks a lot...); Moreover, I followed your indication and I put "Selected works" on the top of the article and "Bibliography" at the bottom where I also added some other critical responses... Thanks again. Kind regards, Gingeksace (talk) 09:08, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, the user that helped you (User:Cullen328) is one of the most respected among the Wikipedia community. He helped me when I was new to Wikipedia like you. Good luck.
- -- Tame (talk) 09:33, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
Thank you a lot at both. It was very kind. All the best,Gingeksace (talk) 09:41, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
Hey, I saw you declined my draft. Can you help me with how I can rewrite some things in the article so it's in a neutral point of view? Thanks. reppoptalk 20:33, 28 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Reppop, if you have noticed carefully, the declination reasons were 2, first, WP:NPOV, second, sourcing do not suggest notability. Here are some sentences that unambiguously promote the subject:
- "has made a successful tour to Japan in 6 cities nationwide"
- has been credited as an "early pioneer" of the future funk genre - the sources here do not have the authority to make such claims.
- The whole draft reads like an essay to promote the subject rather than an encyclopedic entry. And his works are all remixes of existing popular songs, which go viral in TikTok, that surely do not make him notable. If we started creating articles on people who go viral in TikTok, Wikipedia would surely have crashed by now.
- Most of the sources are from foreign language websites, which needs someone who knows that language to verify. Also, these websites initially do not seem to be of good authority, independence, or reliability.
- There are only a few sources that are considered independent, reliable (not sure about verifiability since the language is foreign). One instance could be the Billboard Japan website. But even tho, these trivial and vanity articles do not suggest notability. You would need to insert more of these. There are some English websites used as a source, and they aren't of good authority either. For instance, this blog post.
- As you surely know, drafts that do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject can't be accepted into mainspace. You should see the guidelines on the notability of music-related topics).
- Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added, also terms that promote the subject need to be removed, or need a rewrite. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. Tame (talk) 08:59, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- So, I need more references? Cause he got viral cause of his remixes and not cause of TikTok cause that really wasn't a thing. reppoptalk 19:21, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Reppop, read twice, thanks. Tame (talk) 19:37, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Reppop, also see WP:THREE. Tame (talk) 19:40, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Reppop, tow previous reviewers comments:
- 1. Fails WP:MUSICBIO. Single low peak (170th) on minor music chart does not do enough for notability.
- 2. I see no claim of notability. I'm not sure about most of these sources. Newspapers and magazines are fine but much of this looks like random Japanese websites. Tame (talk) 19:46, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
- @Reppop, also see WP:THREE. Tame (talk) 19:40, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

[edit]https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Draft:Libero_Bigiaretti With my best wishes. Thanks a lot!! Gingeksace (talk) 13:21, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
- @Gingeksace, I have done some copy edits, removed unnecessary info, sources. Two quick notes, please do not overlink, you even link calendar years, for example "1777". While linking to related articles is a good practice, you shouldn't link every words. Just link to important and relevant places, persons, events...etc. And I've removed a source which you used, this one. This website is not reliable, it's a WP:MIRROR, that is, it copies from Wikipedia and uses as a source.
- The draft might in need of some more sources that to be considered as "good sources." But the current state will do just fine. Submit it, and I or another reviewer will accept it. Tame (talk) 17:22, 3 August 2021 (UTC)
Thank you a lot for this and all suggestions!! I confused that source for a proper dictionary... Have a nice evening. Kind regards.Gingeksace (talk) 17:56, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

Good day, thanks for taking the time to review the above mentioned article. I would however like to inquire about the reason for declining the AfC "Pocket Opera Company". I have a hard time understanding why the selection of sources is critized, implying that they are not independent. Basically every single listed reference/source is independent and wasn't self-published. I have provided a wide variety of notable independent sources including articles/reviews from major English newspaper The Independent, major Spanish newspaper El Pais, major German/European news magazines Der Spiegel, Die Zeit, peer reviewed academic articles/books. Can you give me a valid reason why they shouldn't count? It would also very much help if specific sources/excerpts are pointed out as problematic, the current feedback is rather vague in my opinion so it's hard to figure out what to do. Kind regards.

Reasons for your rejection
[edit]Hello, Tamingimpala
I’m sorry for this question, but I’m really confused by decline of my page about Ivan Riabchyi and I need of some support because there are articles about this person in French and Ukrainian Wikipedia; this person has four awards from French Embassy in Ukraine and more than 16 books of translation and non-fiction. In addition, I see now only one value judgement in my work – “he is one of the leading francophone translators in Ukraine”. And I can delete it if this action helps to publish the page.
Thank you 😊
WP:PROF
[edit]- please be aware of that for academic faculty and researchers such as Philippa Mary Hoskin the relevant standard is not whether there are third party sources to meet GNG. The relevant standard is WP:PROF., and that is normally met by showing the person to be influential in their subject as demonstrated by their work. See WP:PROF for the details. DGG ( talk ) 03:41, 15 September 2021 (UTC)
- In general people who have received honorary doctorates like Draft:John Chalmers (medical researcher) / I have not yet checked the citation recor for Draft:Giovanni Martinotti ,
Draft:Sergiu Mișcoiu, Draft:Jasone Cenoz, or further back, but I expect that they will meet the standard--at the very least, they should not have been declined for not meeting WP:GNG.

New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021
[edit]Hello Tamingimpala,
Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.
Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.
At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.
There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.

Moz
[edit]Hi Tamingimpala, good work on moz.com. I just saw that you removed the orphan tag I had placed because of the disambiguation link. According to WP:ORPH, disambiguation pages do not serve the purpose of de-orphaning. Maybe you can come a up with a different page to link to (I am not well versed in the subject area). Best, Modussiccandi (talk) 19:38, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for Reviewing Music Blocks Draft | Do you have any constructive feedback?
[edit]Hi. Thanks for reviewing the draft of Music Blocks visual programming. Do you have any constructive feedback for its improvement?
Basically, I used https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Snap!_(programming_language) as a template as I thought Music Blocks is at about the same level of maturity as that language, and the two are similar topics.
Please advise, and thank you in advance. --Remakemusic (talk) 21:58, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Remakemusic, Hi I appreciate you reaching out. Now, there are multiple issues with your draft. To start with, are the reliable sources. There are a few good sources you provided such as MIT, FSF. But you used a lot of primary and non reliable sources, such as musciblocks.net. Also, there are issues with vague wording and puffery words. For example, the lead begins with: "Music Blocks is a free/libre/open-source"- that is by no means a good intro. You could've removed the "/", and instead add commas ",". Also, the topic needs to get significant coverage, or be on headlines. Just passing mentions, for example in this source is not enough.
- I invite you to post a query on Teahouse. The friendly editors there will help you out with whatever you need assistance with. It really works. Try it. Thanks. -- Tame (talk) 07:25, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
- Thanks again. I will rework my draft based on your feedback. As for coverage, the most significant coverage in independent media that I cite in the draft is https://edtechzine.jp/article/detail/1802 The https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/5836 is intended to give context, but perhaps it is distracting. I did post once before in Teahouse, and will continue to seek guidance there. Thanks again! --Remakemusic (talk) 23:28, 3 January 2022 (UTC)
I have unreviewed a page you curated
[edit]Hi, I'm Celestina007. I wanted to let you know that I saw the page you reviewed, Neil Patel (digital marketer), and have marked it as unreviewed. If you have any questions, please ask them on my talk page. Thank you.

Speedy deletion nomination of Moz.com
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Moz.com requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Moz (marketing software). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
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 deleted 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Liz Read! Talk! 00:03, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion nomination of YugabyteDB
[edit]Tame Why is the YugabyteDB page not notable? There are three companies in the NewSQL/Distributed SQL database market. These are TiDB, Cockroach and Yugabyte. The Cockroach page has fewer references, is mainly marketing and doesn't show why it is notable The TiDB page has references almost exclusively back to the vendors site and is basically a list of features they want to push The former YugabyteDB page that was taken down was nothing to do with me and was clearly written from marketing material however I believe that what I have written covers the topic seriously and with relevant references for a fast growing $1Bn+ company - Please look at https://db-engines.com/en/ranking to see Cockroach at position 58, TiDB at 95 and Yugabyte at 121 (and rapidly growing) of 351 databases. Many of the database entries below in the ranking page have wikipedia entries I am happy to add any content that you think will demonstrate this to be more notable - I have already added the rapid funding rounds and growth and will add anything else you suggest.

Drabant Corps review
[edit]Thank you very much for reviewing the article, which I suspect must have been quite bothersome due to its length. I also appreciate the feedback (tags) you left and would like to ask if you can elaborate a little; especially on the "factual accuracy is disputed" (I find this to be quite serious and if there's anything I can do, I'd like to fix it ASAP). Thanks again for taking your time. Imonoz (talk) 12:53, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Imonoz, Hi, sorry for late reply. I actually don't remember, or not sure about why I put that tag at that time. For the time being, I have removed it. If it was a shorter article, I would have taken another look at it and let u know. But, u know, I'm not going through that "novel" again any time soon. Have a wonderful day.-- Tame (talk) 09:22, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
Request for more info
[edit]Hi Tamingimpala, yesterday you reviewed the Westminster lockdown parties controversy article, and added the 'too few opinions' and 'undue weight' tags. These tags were quickly removed though.

Guidance on resubmitting REE Automotive page
[edit]Hello! I’m Caroline and I lead communications for REE Automotive. I posted this on the REE talk page as well. I do not intend to create any content in the site and acknowledge my conflict of interest up front.
I wanted to reach out regarding REE’s readiness to re-submit it’s page for publishing and get editors thoughts on this. Since we submitted in July, we have a host of national and global sources to add - ranging in tone and content. These include CNBC, Reuters, Electrek, Barron’s, Forbes and others.
We also have a Wiki page in Israel.
I am wondering if you can help guide us on when it would be appropriate to resubmit, and any thoughts on the sourcing below. I welcome any discussion and appreciate any feedback! Reeauto (talk) 02:19, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Vandalism, COI and other topics
[edit]Hello Tame. I thought it best to address you here. You may not feel like a "new user" but all things are relative. One thing I have noticed, is your tendency to issue level 4 warnings (also here) to editors and then shortly afterwards reporting them to WP:AIV (example). This is not really appropriate. User warnings have levels for a reason. Do not skip levels. Another thing is COI editing is not equivalent to vandalism. I certainly know the feeling you get when you think you have found someone who is abusing Wikipedia for promotion, but it is no reason for not following procedure. Just keep calm and follow the steps, even if it doesn't have instant gratification. Cheers, --SVTCobra 13:06, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- @SVTCobra, Thanks for the advice. I guess I wasn't really practicing WP:NOBITING. I however, intend to from now on. Tame (talk) 13:20, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- Thank you for considering my advice. I am usually an inclusionist. However, I find it curious that you would consider RnaR notable, but Dronacharya Group of Institutions, Greater Noida and Dronacharya College of Engineering non-notable. Unless you think it is a fake college, surely it is more notable than a YouTuber, no? Cheers, --SVTCobra 13:41, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- @SVTCobra, one is an educational institution, another BLP. they have different guidelines. Tame (talk) 13:53, 25 January 2022 (UTC)
- Indeed they do. I don't think you answered my question, though. And you don't have to. It was mostly a type of thought experiment. Cheers,
- @SVTCobra, The question wasn't answerable, per se giving a direct answer, if that's what you were seeking for. You have to take context and type of the articles into consideration, no? Anyway, sorry my ignorance not to go up and check myself, but do you spend most of your wiki time on COIN or related issues?Tame (talk) 14:12, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

Rough translations
[edit]I noticed that you tagged the article Ludwig Kainer as a rough translation, which is defined as "generated by a computer or by a translator without dual proficiency" - in other words, where the text is either incorrect or incomprehensible or both. This does not apply to articles where there are just a few residual translation issues such as LK. The appropriate tag would have been {{cleanup translation}}. It is counterproductive and very demoralising to wallop a translator with a tag saying in effect "your work is crap" when it isn't, as you can perhaps imagine given that you yourself apparently translate sometimes. Best, Ingratis (talk) 11:35, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

Cleanup tags at Bayesian quadrature
[edit]While I appreciate that mathematical articles can be difficult to understand, I am not sure how grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling are problematic here. Could you also explain where the accuracy of the article is in dispute? This would be very helpful so that other editors can effectively address your concerns. Felix QW (talk) 17:58, 31 January 2022 (UTC)
- @Felix QW, although not much grammar to be fixed, there are a few small corrections to be made, for example, in the first sentence, I think fall applies, rather than falls. Or some spelling correction. For instance, minimize instead of minimise (which is UK spelling, not US). Anyway, I removed the tag as it appears mostly redundant. Cheers!-- Tame (talk) 18:16, 31 January 2022 (UTC)

AFD closure
[edit]I have reverted your closure, because as an involved user you can't do a NAC closure like that. There are two things here: 1) you are the article's creator and 2) you voted. Just wait until the AfD's creator withdraws himself, or someone uninvolved wraps it up. Regards, Jovanmilic97 (talk) 14:46, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Jovanmilic97, Yeah I get it. But I did it based on this: If no one has supported deletion of the article you may close the discussion yourself as a WP:Speedy keep, or you may leave it for someone else to close the discussion. stated at WP:WDAFD. Doesn't it apply here? Maybe because I'm a voter myself too? Can you elaborate a bit more? Regards. Tame (talk) 14:52, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
- See Wikipedia:Non-admin_closure#Inappropriate_closures: "The non-admin has demonstrated a potential conflict of interest, or lack of impartiality, by having expressed an opinion in the discussion or being otherwise involved". Jovanmilic97 (talk) 14:55, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
The article Adventure of Sundarbans has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Non notable future film, fails WP:NFF. Should be deleted or moved to draft until release.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page 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. DonaldD23 talk to me 16:00, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

Lists of space travelers
[edit]Hi, I notice that you've closed the AfD on Lists of space travelers as "redirect". There are two things wrong with this: (1) the AfD should be allowed to run for 7 days; if it's obvious that a clear consensus has appeared before this, it could be closed early, but to close it on the same day that it was opened is extremely unusual and generally inappropriate; (2) An AfD should never, never be closed by the person who started it, except as a withdrawal. You can't close your own AfD in 24 hours as, effectively, a delete. I'd urge you to re-open it. I'm fine that the consensus is currently against me - I think it's a totally illogical redirect that would be better completely deleted, but I really don't feel strongly enough about it to lose any sleep. But the AfD must be carried out properly. If you don't feel able to reopen it yourself, I will have to ask for admin assistance at ANI, which is a messy thing I'd rather not do. Please reopen it! Elemimele (talk) 21:23, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Elemimele, Since u insist, I reopened the AFD. Although sooner or later its going to be redirected again. Tame (talk) 21:45, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Tamingimpala: Thank you for reopening it. I am not going to fight the final decision; honestly, I don't care that much about the actual decision (though if it must be a redirect, I think it would be more sensible to redirect it to the list of named astronauts rather than the list of lists, but that's a personal opinion and consensus is what matters). I just feel, strongly, that any AfD decision that actually involves deleting should be allowed to run long enough for any interested party to see it's happening, and should be closed by someone who's uninvolved. I do appreciate that you only closed it after the original creator agreed with the redirect, but there also, I'm not sure the original creator gets to bypass the process of what to do with their creation. Sometimes people make something more useful than they appreciate, and it takes independent eyes to see what use it has. But as I say, thank you for doing the right thing. Elemimele (talk) 21:50, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Tamingimpala, I just want to second what Elemimele said in point #2--I appreciate you wanting to help bring the conclusion to a quick and efficient end, but you should never close an AfD that you've commented in or nominated, just like Jovanmilic97 told you last week. The only exception is if you're withdrawing the nomination as a speedy keep when all other !votes were for keeping as well. Cheers! Alyo (chat·edits) 22:11, 15 February 2022 (UTC)
- @Alyo, I know the rules. However, I was being bold and I believe If a rule prevents you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore it as stated in WP:IGNORE (And I also read the essays interpreting it). I mean the AFD was pretty much done, and I closed it after the OP themselves supported the redirected. It was very unlikely that someone else would've voted otherwise, so just still keeping it on for AFD isn't very productive or time efficient. I mean one less AFD right? And keep in mind that I was aware of the fact that someone might object to it, so I'd have undone it, so did I once user Elemimele did obbject. In any case, I respect the rules, as they were an end product of a holistic and mass general consensus. I will avoid such acts in future. Regards. Tame (talk) 07:17, 16 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello! I wanted to drop a quick note for all of our AFC participants; nothing huge and fancy like a newsletter, but a few points of interest.
- AFCH will now show live previews of the comment to be left on a decline.
- The template {{db-afc-move}} has been created - this template is similar to {{db-move}} when there is a redirect in the way of an acceptance, but specifically tells the patrolling admin to let you (the draft reviewer) take care of the actual move.
Short and sweet, but there's always more to discuss at WT:AFC. Stop on by, maybe review a draft on the way? Whether you're one of our top reviewers, or haven't reviewed in a while, I want to thank you for helping out in the past and in the future.

Fadew
[edit]I see you added Fadew to List of left-wing publications in the United Kingdom. Apologies if I've missed it but do any reliable sources specifically call it left-wing? As I haven't seen any. Helper201 (talk) 00:54, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Helper201. Hi, Helper! I mean it's a liberal atheism pub, so left-wing is "kinda" obvious? Plus, this from Bookbub mentions it. And it was my bad not introducing this source while adding to the list. I'm doing it now. Regards. Tame (talk) 07:50, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Tame. Hey. In the UK neither liberalism nor atheism necessarily equates to being on the left. The overton window is not the same as what it is in the US. In the UK liberalism is generally associated with the political centre, whereas ideologies such as social democracy and democratic socialism are associated as being on the left (as is also the case in most of Europe). That aside the source you gave does state this clearly so if this is cited it should be fine, although its not a source I know of so hopefully it is reliable. Cheers. Helper201 (talk) 23:38, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
- @Helper201. Yeah I was on the fence, and with hindsight realized things are different in Europe. Although that's besides the point since a source already mentions it. And I'm regular user of BookBub (great site for bookish people). I think the editors better have researched before labeling a magazine as left wing? In any case, thanks for ur efforts to make wiki a more reliable encyclopedia by fact checking. I mean as I already mentioned on your talk page once, these little contribution make up to something big. And unfortunately, not many editors inquiry about adding something to a list page with or without source. Wikipedia fo shizzle needs more pro-active editors like ya. Take care, Cheers!

Cleanup of Sajeeb Group
[edit]In July 2021, you tagged Sajeeb Group with {{Cleanup reorganize}}. At the time, the article consisted of a history section and a list of subsidiary businesses, which is fairly typical for company stubs. Do you still see a problem with that, and if so, would you elaborate on how you feel it fails MOS:STRUCTURE?
Since then someone has added a new section about a controversial event, which probably instead should be a paragraph in the history section, or a sub-section of it. Other than that, I don't see an obvious problem with the layout/structure. Cleanup tags are useful if they lead to an effort to fix the problem, but they should not be allowed to become a permanent badge of shame just because the problem isn't clear. --Worldbruce (talk) 06:42, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Worldbruce, removed it for now. cheers! -- Tame (talk) 15:13, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
Page mover right granted
[edit]Hi, I cleaned up the move on Draft:Joe MacMillan. As you've been around for a while now, and have nominated several articles for Did you know?, I think you can be trusted to use the page mover right, which allows you to do these moves without leaving a redirect automatically. If you have any further questions, have a look at the policy page for details, or ask me a question on my talk page. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 13:09, 4 April 2022 (UTC)
- I was wondering why you moved this page around, to User space and then back to Draft space. You just have to make a minor edit to stop a draft from CSD G13 stale draft deletion. Liz Read! Talk! 04:48, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
- @Lizm it was a mistake. i tried to move it to sandbox, clicked mistakenly. Tame (talk) 16:11, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:Gordon Clark (fictional character)
[edit]Hello, Tamingimpala. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Gordon Clark".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 05:50, 5 April 2022 (UTC)
Request
[edit]Hope that you are well. Recently there is a CCI opened about me. And that's why I have to rewrite my articles. But I am blocked now so I can't rewrite article. So can you inspect Murad Takla and rewrite it if necessary and remove copyright material from the article? Also I suspect that this article may have close paraphrasing issue. It is my request, I will not force you. I will be grateful if you spend your precious time for the article. Mehedi Abedin 22:46, 14 April 2022 (UTC)

April 2022
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions; however, it appears you may have written a Wikipedia article, or a draft for a Wikipedia article, about yourself, at Shoaib Rahman. Creating an autobiography is strongly discouraged – please see our guideline on writing autobiographies. If you create such an article, it may be deleted. If what you have done in life is genuinely notable and can be verified according to our policy for articles about living people, someone else will probably create an article about you sooner or later (see Wikipedians with articles). If you wish to add to or change an existing article about yourself, you are welcome to propose the changes by visiting the article's talk page. Please understand that this is an encyclopedia and not a personal web space or social networking site. If your article has already been deleted, please see: Why was the page I created deleted?, and if you feel the deletion was an error, please discuss this with the deleting administrator. It looks as if you have created multiple articles for yourself or for persons and subjects where you have a WP:COI and/or are paid by. See also Children and Atheism and Fadew.

Sockpuppet investigation
[edit]You are suspected of sockpuppetry, which means that someone suspects you of using multiple Wikipedia accounts for prohibited purposes. Please make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, then, if you wish to do so, respond to the evidence at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Mostly shoaib. Thank you. --Worldbruce (talk) 15:01, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

- @Innisfree987, yeah I'd miss working on this project. now they blocked me. Tame (talk) 09:20, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Innisfree987, i take pride for my contribution in this project, but those revenge fantasizing editors removed most of my stuff on this project. making wiki a worse place than it already was yesterday. Wikipedia ain't about building an encyclopedia, it's the two groups. the good and the bad guys. I liked what one user said when discussing my ban: "much like the United States prison system, Wikipedia is about punishment, not rehabilitation. Hence they need to erase every facet of a sockpuppet that ever existed, no matter the cost or even the logic or rationality behind the decision. Since Wikipedia is not about making an encyclopedia, it's about the in groups and the out groups." Tame (talk) 09:24, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
- A small word of advice: if you hope to be unblocked, it’s for the best to acknowledge and apologize for any violations of Wikipedia policy, rather than attack the people upholding them. I’m sorry someone gave you the impression it would help your case to do otherwise.
All that said, the monthly WiR message is automatically generated. If you’re not pursuing an unblock, I can remove you from the mailing list if you wish. Innisfree987 (talk) 14:05, 2 May 2022 (UTC)
