Hello! Thank you for your help on this page: I'm rather new to all this, and I appreciate your time. Would you mind explaining the "contradictory" note you placed on the page, please? I'd like to fix it, but I can't see anything obviously contradictory about the statement. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 09:19, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- @ArthurTheGardener Hi there, thanks for stopping by. They were not “contradictory note”s thought, lol, they were just tags to draw the attention of other editor. For example, the
{{orphan}}
is used to let others (and you) know that there’s no page on Wikipedia that links to this one, while the{{uncategorised}}
is used to let others know that the article has not been categorised yet. Anyway, it appears all these has been fixed already and the tags have been removed. Happy editing, Vanderwaalforces (talk) 11:17, 25 May 2024 (UTC)- Oh right: I understand. Thank you for explaining. Is this something I should have done myself? ArthurTheGardener (talk) 12:32, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- @ArthurTheGardener, you could have de-orphaned the article by linking it to other articles and fixed the categorisation tag by adding appropriate categories. Nevertheless, it’s great that it has been resolved. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:09, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you! I'll try to look into just how to do that next time. ArthurTheGardener (talk) 13:13, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Sh!tshow at Tesla page
A whole pattern [1] of bad behavior from numerous admins portrays a picture of how bad faith behavior from admins is covered up by other admins in the same manner the police is "protecting their own". Several admins are disrupting that page for years. The whole chronological order is nearly impossible to reconstruct because of their disruption. Impossible to imagine, but for years this is being discussed... [2] 95.168.118.16 (talk) 11:08, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your efforts in reducing the NPP backlog. You deserve this! Maliner (talk) 15:13, 27 May 2024 (UTC) |
- @Maliner Whenever another editor acknowledges my effort, I can't help but feel a subtle rush of excitement. Thank you so much. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 15:22, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
- brother, I just wanted to know that I am really proud of you. You came a long way from our first interaction. You have been an exemplary editor. Looking forward for your admin RfA FuzzyMagma (talk) 13:52, 31 May 2024 (UTC)

rfa
Hey, Vanderwaalforces, the new system is trying to avoid support/oppose statements for two days. Before someone responds, you could maybe edit this? Valereee (talk) 20:19, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Valereee Hi there, thanks for reaching out. Is “I’d definitely support” the problem here? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 20:22, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Yeah, sorry for being unclear. We delayed the voting for two days for this trial. I don't think you did anything wrong, just in the spirit of this trial it might be best if you simply deleted those words before anyone responds to them and you can't. Valereee (talk) 20:37, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Valereee Done. Thank you. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 20:41, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Just going to borrow this heading to say you may want to take a breath and step back for a while. Pushing too hard can harden opposition against your position and can sour those who are on the fence. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:40, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- @ScottishFinnishRadish Thank you so much. I can only imagine how sad this is for DreamRimmer. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:49, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
NPP drive
Hey Vanderwaalforces, great work on the NPP drive. The backlog looks absolutely beautiful. I came across a pretty interesting article covering a subject of clear significance -- the Giiwedinong Treaty Rights and Culture Museum. I've removed some of the language but it still has some glaring POV issues. I thought it might be right up your alley... JTtheOG (talk) 00:47, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- @JTtheOG Interesting… how does it look now? I’m a sleepy head right now, literally 02:47 in my time zone. Seeya. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 01:47, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
- Looks great! Enjoy your rest, comrade. JTtheOG (talk) 02:16, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!
The Barnstar of Diligence | |
VF, I wanted to have awarded you before the NPP drive awards. Your edits are one that inspires others. I really don't want to write a full chapter like Achebe's Things Fall Apart, but in recognition for your 'most' tireless work especially diversified and ranging from the project-wide, I hereby award you 'THE BARNSTAR OF DILIGENCE'. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 09:52, 2 June 2024 (UTC) |
- @SafariScribe What did I do? Hehe, thank you so much for your contributions too. I am happy to see you’re learning as time flies. Happy editing! Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:16, 2 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi VF, help me copy edit Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie for a FAC. Thanks with any help you can offer. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 14:28, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Vanderwaalforces, I don't realise this before nomination, you may add them as your comments at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie/archive2. Wish me well ooo. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 06:46, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @SafariScribe Pardon? What should I do please? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 06:58, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- That was a typographically error which I have corrected. The copy edit may now go as a review comment in the FA. Hope this is clearer? Thanks. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 07:06, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @SafariScribe Pardon? What should I do please? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 06:58, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
Orphan
Hey, I think I have sufficiently addressed the Orphan issue you added here; I’m not sure what the issue with the categories is, as this is my first BLP-article. Would you be willing to help? FortunateSons (talk) 12:04, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @FortunateSons Hi there. You have indeed de-orphaned this article and in a situation like this, be bold in removing the tag from the top of the article. I have removed it already though. For the categories, I have added relevant ones, see this diff for a list. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:07, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you very much, I will do so in the future. FortunateSons (talk) 13:08, 6 June 2024 (UTC)

Why did you have to do that ?
Hello, This article is best moved to draft why nominating it for deletion? @Light Hill Music Madeforall1 (talk) 17:06, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have moved the article to draft Madeforall1 (talk) 17:09, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Madeforall1 Hi there. Please see WP:AFDTODRAFT as it is not appropriate to draftify article once it has been taken to AfD. I will go ahead and bring it back to mainspace and reinstate the AfD templates, it’ll also not be appropriate if you revert me again. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 17:14, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Why did you take it there? Why will you nominate my article? I have page creation right, if you can’t improve the article, let it be. Madeforall1 (talk) 17:16, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Please do not be upset. That is not how it works exactly. Everyone have page creation rights but you have to be sure the subject you want to write about passes any of the WP:SNGs or WP:GNG or anything that applies. I told you already on Reading Beans’ talk page that it doesn’t qualify for a standalone entry hours before I nominated it. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 17:24, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- All I see is references from reliable sites that’s why I started that article. Madeforall1 (talk) 19:41, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- They’re not reliable pieces just as the AfD states. All you need to do is participate at the AfD. Also, please stop your disruptive editing pattern as it’s not the best thing to do at this point. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:46, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your efforts Madeforall1 (talk) 19:49, 2 June 2024 (UTC)
- Greetings Sir, I pled you withdraw your nomination and close it, while I work on the article, it’s not my fault those source seam’s promotional but some can be removed, thank you sir for your time, I will really appreciate. Madeforall1 (talk) 05:58, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- I just wanted to confirm @Madeforall1, did you nominate Egungun of Lagos as a way of “getting back”? Because that is the pure definition of bad faith editing. Anyways, I’ll assume good faith and still cast my !vote. Best, Reading Beans 06:42, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Sir @Vanderwaalforces, please kindly withdrawal your nomination just as I did and it has been closed by @Safari Scribe, Thank you. Madeforall1 (talk) 12:47, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Madeforall1 Hi there today. The short answer is “No”. The subject is not notable and I wasn’t a sleepy head when I put up that AfD. I also have no business with you withdrawing any nomination or whatsoever. Your nomination was, as a matter of fact, bad faith and snow kept. I am so good at assuming good faith and as of this writing I am still assuming that you have no special interest in Light Hill Music or another other articles you’ve created. Please see our policy on conflict of interests and declare if you have any. Do not ask me to withdraw any nomination again. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:11, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, I have many topics I want to write about, but at this point I want you to help me start this topic, I don’t want issues with my new topics, they are from reliable sources. Madeforall1 (talk) 13:23, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- That seems fair enough and thoughtful of you. What do you want to write about? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 13:26, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- It’s on Kingdom Achievers Award, it’s a gospel award show that awards notable gospel artists. Madeforall1 (talk) 17:57, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Madeforall1, quite a bit notable award. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 19:43, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yh, I’ve seen notable references about the award and I don’t know if I can start a draft on it so as I work on it, it gets moved when the article is ready. Madeforall1 (talk) 00:02, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Madeforall1 Hi there. Start a draft and when you think it’s ready, submit it for AfC so that a reviewer can cross check. Have a great day ahead. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 05:00, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hello @Vanderwaalforces@SafariScribe, Kindly take a look at the article to see if it can be moved to main space Draft:Kingdom Achievers Award, thanks. Madeforall1 (talk) 22:15, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

CSD G13s
Hello, Vanderwaalforces,
Please do not tag expiring drafts too early. We go by the date and time of the last human edit on the draft or sandbox page. In these cases today, an admin went ahead and deleted them but they can choose to untag them and then we wait for another 6 months before they become eligible for CSD G13 deletion again. We have a bot, SDZeroBot that keeps track of expiring drafts and lets us know when they are eligible. Thank you for all of your contributions to the project! Liz Read! Talk! 18:11, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Liz Hello. Did I tag them too early? WP:G13 says if the last human edit to them is six months, then they can be deleted. I am also very much aware of the bot edits that do not count to reset the G13 clock. I am sure all that of the drafts I tagged clearly fell under G13. So I’m unsure why you said I shouldn’t tag them too early. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:38, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hey @Liz. Just noting that I explained this a bit more to Vanderwaalforces via Discord (with images, to make it clearer what we're looking for). Hey man im josh (talk) 19:51, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- Yes, I acknowledge this and thank Josh for his explanations. I’ll watch out next time. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:57, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, good day Vanderwaalforces I trust you have been great! As my Wikipedia mentor, can you review my articles for creation, I have submitted some new pages for review but it is taking forever. I want to know if I did them right. Thank you. Ahola .O (talk) 07:54, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Ahola .O Hi there, yes, I have been great. The review backlog, whether at AfC or NPP, is a bit substantial and will take time to get someone to review your article, please be patient. Is there a specific article you want me to look at? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:40, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Okay I understand. Yes please i'd appreciate if you look at these articles, Calabar Chic and Sofolahan Josiah Sawyerr. I noticed some AfC gets reviewed so fast while others don't, maybe new page reviewers on Wikipedia are not so much. I am working on the number of my edits so I can help out at least. Ahola .O (talk) 10:08, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Ahola .O I am currently looking at Sofolahan Josiah Sawyerr, and want to commend you. Please add the exact page number on the citations to books.google, so that one can easily verify the claim. A tag has already been placed on the citations, so fix it by adding the page numbers for easy verification. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:14, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- okay. Ahola .O (talk) 10:31, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Ahola .O, I want to add that there are a lot of unreliable sources present in the article (Calabar Chic). Please, see WP:NGRS for sources to use and those not to use. Best, Reading Beans 11:19, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hello, good day thanks so much for the observation, I just exchanged references from BellaNaija and Lindaikeji's blog. Those were the two unreliable sources I found. Thank you. Ahola .O (talk) 00:22, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

- @Ahola .O I will take a look. For the Calabar Chic article, I am not satisfied with it because the sources are poor in reliability. You also have to explain how you got her portrait to be your “own work”, please. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 07:19, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- i know I have asked for your help in adding photos and you laid it down for me but I still don't understand, they still get deleted afterwards. I do not own the calabar chic portrait, It is just that it don't get deleted if I claim it is mine. I'd really love to learn how to upload pictures though. Ahola .O (talk) 09:48, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Ahola .O That is deceptive to an extent, you know. Saying the image is your "Own work" when it is not is very deceptive. But it's good you opened up, are there others you uploaded on this ground? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:06, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

I noticed some AfC gets reviewed so fast while others don't, maybe new page reviewers on Wikipedia are not so much. I am working on the number of my edits so I can help out at least.

Olanrewaju Smart
You tagged the article Olanrewaju Smart as a re-creation of an article deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Olanrewaju Smart. I deleted the article, but an editor has now drawn my attention to the fact that the deleting administrator restored the article as a draft, and ask me to restore it again. I am not entirely happy with restoring the article, since it doesn't look to me as though the issues which led to deletion have been dealt with, but in view of the fact that the outcome of the deletion discussion was not totally clear, I have decided that the best thing to do is to restore it, leaving the possibility of it's being taken to another AfD discussion. You may like to consider doing that. JBW (talk) 16:44, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks James, I did this. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:35, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
You deleted my page
I am new to Wikipedia and wasn't aware that my article "Maral Salmassi" was violating the guidelines. Was it because of the reference links I had added, or was it the content in general? I would like to understand and avoid deletion. Also what type of reference links are allowed for a music label catalogue= I added Discogs links and I'm not sure if they caused the deletion. AZaMas (talk) 00:29, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @AZaMas Hi there. I’m so happy you came here, it means you actually have good intentions and I am sorry your page got deleted. The page was overly promotional and Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion.
- There are several things you need to take note of. For example, if you have a conflict of interest with the subject of the article, you should declare it. See what conflict of interest means here, see how to declare it if you have any. Discorgs is not considered a reliable source because it is user-generated, see WP:DISCOGS for more information and WP:USERGEN for what user generated means in general.
- If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 05:06, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
A goat for you!
Keep up the great work.

- Thanks for the live goat! I would have preferred goatmeat pepper soup though :) Vanderwaalforces (talk) 08:47, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- lol. I am glad you like it. Ahola .O (talk) 09:25, 13 June 2024 (UTC)

Dude why revert to false information again? Wikimoanster (talk) 08:39, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikimoanster You are obviously Special:Contributions/103.86.139.10. Please stop removing significant information from articles and using an inappropriate edit summary. Why are you removing the information? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 08:44, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- i try to fix it in right information Wikimoanster (talk) 09:12, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Look again at the article, is what I did a mistake?
- I'm just trying to help because I have an accurate source Wikimoanster (talk) 09:14, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikimoanster What is the source of your information? The sole source cited in the article does not verify any of your changes so you have to provide your own source to back up your changes, they're too significant to be ignored. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:21, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- I rode it myself that bike Wikimoanster (talk) 09:26, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikimoanster What about someone like me who did not ride the bike? We need sources to verify claims, please read WP:V. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:32, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- OK, first of all, I want to apologize if my words offended you, the information I got is quite reliable from the motorbike club that I join.
- Secondly, I'm new here so I apologize if I make any mistakes (maybe you can guide me?)
- thirdly where are you from my english is not very good Wikimoanster (talk) 09:44, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- some of the information I wrote also came from the official website of the motorbike manufacturer that made that motorbike in my country but it has been deleted so I can't link it Wikimoanster (talk) 09:47, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikimoanster I am absolutely not offended. I understand that you're new here and will not hesitate to guide you. Do you have the specific link to the web page you're talking about? Even though it has been deleted, maybe it must have been archived somewhere and that is definitely going to suffice. So, do you have the link to the web page that you got the information from? Vanderwaalforces (talk) 09:52, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- I have several, maybe you can help me list them because I don't really understand how to do it Wikimoanster (talk) 09:55, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- here the reference
- Please don't change it again. I've been working hard to collect the information

- there is another one but I can't find it on the wayback machine Wikimoanster (talk) 10:05, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- You also need to know that the information in the article before I edit, is wrong information Wikimoanster (talk) 10:08, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikimoanster See this page to learn how to do inline citations which is likely the easiest, especially if you're editing using visual editor. You can not use the Blogspot site as that is considered unreliable, but you can use the otomania.gridoto.com. Please learn how to do the citation as I mentioned above before attempting. If you make mistakes, I will correct you. Do let me know. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 10:27, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi I just added a reference, is there anything I did wrong? Wikimoanster (talk) 15:33, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Wikimoanster Hi today. So, based on WP:INLINECITE, you're supposed to put the citation right after the claims that it supports, as opposed to just listing it at the bottom the way you did it. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 16:26, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

About the page Calabar Chic
Hello Vanderwaalforces I noticed you nominated the page Calabar Chic for deletion because her notability wasn't stated in the updated version of the page. When I created the page, it was reviewed then it was still edited by the same person to the version it is now. I would like you to check the edit history to see the difference. Thank you. Ahola .O (talk) 18:10, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Ahola .O There is no much difference and would have still did the same thing. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 04:32, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

About the draft Ola Cardoso
Hello….
I created a page Ola Cardoso but later moved it to draft Draft:Ola Cardoso so it could go through the AFC review process, to be sure I’m on track with my creations. Please let me know what you think. I hope it’s okay to ask though. Cheers! Mevoelo (talk) 19:18, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Mevoelo Hi there. Will take a look if someone else doesn’t attend to it. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:24, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- Many thanks. Mevoelo (talk) 19:42, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
