Shingareva
Hello Unknown Editor: You want to speed delete the entry i created saying it violates copyright. I contested it because it was taken from several resources, and the page you criticize as being copyright violated, was originally also written by me (although it is not said there, but you can trace back that I headed the commission website where it appeared. I cannot violate my own copyriight, and I also included the source in the references -- exatcly WHAT IS YOUR PROBLEM HERE? If I create an article from my research - delteed. If I create one from existing sources - deleted. Very nice. --Hargitai (talk) 09:36, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- I've moved this message from the top of the page, and posted a message on Hargitai's talk page. Despite what he says, it was 85% copied from a single source that wasn't explicitly PD and didn't have a CC BY-SA 3.0 Licence Jimfbleak - talk to me? 11:12, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- Jimfbleak, I did not notice it yet (lots of afc+anti vandal fight=too much talk page attention) - exactly and anyone can claim here to be the Copyright holder. Thanks Jim. CommanderWaterford (talk) 11:16, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- Hello Did you delete my newly created Kira Shingareva page? I did not even get any notice, it was just deleted. I used my OWN text on a website where I DID ADD the creative commons sign. I really think someone of you personally hates me and want to remove anything I create. --Hargitai (talk) 08:28, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
New page reviewer granted

Hi CommanderWaterford. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:
- Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
- If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
- Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. signed, Rosguill talk 17:47, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
- @Rosguill @Atsme Thank you. Could be possible that I will bother you with questions in the near future if I am unsure. CommanderWaterford (talk) 17:53, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
- Congratulations, CW - don't hesitate to refer back to your training page. Rosguill has also provided excellent advice so please keep it in mind along with the tips and other important procedures we covered during your training. And remember, the only dumb question is the one you didn't ask. 😊 Atsme 💬 📧 18:08, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
Congratulations
Hi, Im glad that you got the NPP rights. Sometimes I try to follow your AFC review on certain drafts get more experience. I hope you will reduce the backlog with the new rights. All the best and regards. Kichu🐘 Need any help? 18:11, 31 March 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you. My experience of the last months is that all is a matter of practice and curiosity. PS: How the heck did you get the elephant into your sig?! ;-) CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:14, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

| Thanks for your help wikifying the new creations of the edit-a-thon participants. Not only does it reduce my workload, but having another editor come make improvements shows the newbies that we have a vibrant and helpful community! Hopefully they decide to stay, and at the very least you helped show them the best side of our editorial community! — Wug·a·po·des 23:27, 8 March 2021 (UTC) |

| I would like to thank you for rejecting my article draft today. At first I was a little disappointed but then when I figured why, It made a lot of sense! Next time I go to make a new article I'll make sure it's one of the best articles! So, once again thanks for rejecting my article. - AestheticAllison2841 17:02, 13 March 2021 (UTC) |

Tagging G13s
Hello, again, Commander,
Not to be rigid but you are tagging stale drafts a little bit too early.
Please remember that we go by UTC time, not your local time. I know here in the U.S., there's a difference in corresponding time depending on whether or not it was Daylight Savings Time when the draft was last edited and whether or not it is Daylight Savings Time six months later. Earlier in March, there was an hour time difference but now the corresponding time periods are the same. I'm not sure whether you are located but there might be a similar time offset. It's been helpful to me to have a clock on UTC time on my upper menu but I forget whether that is due to a script I installed or a setting in my Preferences.
Thanks again for all of your work! Liz Read! Talk! 19:01, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
- CommanderWaterford, you also tagged Draft:Elaine Hsiao for deletion but it was just edited two days ago. Please, please, please, check the edit history of each draft before you tag it. Otherwise, you will need to stop tagging pages for speedy deletion, at least G13s. Liz Read! Talk! 18:43, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
- I apologize, I exported the Database Excerpt 2 days ago, thats the reason. Funny to see that it is always the same editor who is editing on the exact last day of each (!) 6 months, in a more or less constructive way, whatever sense this may have. But you are right, I should have seen this one. CommanderWaterford (talk) 19:16, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
HOW not reliable
TRNC Special Task Force Command first citation on this new translated page is official site of this unit. What could be more reliable than that?Cengizsogutlu (talk) 15:57, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hello! First of all I expect some kind of polite greeting on my talk page. You should read the message better, it says the majority of your sources are not reliable. 90% of the sources you presented are Twitter Tweets. CommanderWaterford (talk) 16:00, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
- I did not ever do insulting etc it was just quick response, Tweets, It is impossible to find out in any other way what weapons and equipment they using expect twitter photo's. Kind RegardsCengizsogutlu (talk) 16:06, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
AIV
Hello, please be a bit more careful with Huggle and AIV reporting. Please make sure that the edits are actually vandalism (ie deliberately damaging to the encyclopaedia; not content disputes, poor formatting, or editorial matters). I've noticed you've made a lot of AIV reports recently and you've probably seen that I've actioned a lot of them but some of them seem hasty and in some I haven't been able to find a problem with the user's edits. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 21:21, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hi @HJ MitcheII:,
you will need to give me examples, I do not pay attention to AIV after reporting usually - you are aware that Huggle reports automatically after the 4th warning of a user?!CommanderWaterford (talk) 21:23, 2 April 2021 (UTC) - Figured it out, was reported automatically, explained it at the AIV, I will deactivate the automatic reporting from now on. CommanderWaterford (talk) 21:40, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
Your Page deletion
Hi, you marked article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Simon_Chapple_(Langmead)for speedy deletion, it is part of a wider project on Books About Sobriety - if the article contained promotional style wording I am keen to resolve this, I have rewritten and resubmitted. Rather than delete the article I would like to learn to get it right and accepted by you as I have several other notable authors to submit. Please can you provide me with help and specific changes to make the article acceptable. Appreciated Claire.
- @ClaireUK1979: , please have a closer look at WP:NAUTHOR - authors are not notable enough for Wikipedia only because they wrote some books. CommanderWaterford (talk) 09:55, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
Your GA nomination of AMC AMX III
The article AMC AMX III you nominated as a good article has passed
; see Talk:AMC AMX III for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already appeared on the main page as a "Did you know" item, or as a bold link under "In the News" or in the "On This Day" prose section, you can nominate it within the next seven days to appear in DYK. Bolded names with dates listed at the bottom of the "On This Day" column do not affect DYK eligibility. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of JPxG -- JPxG (talk) 23:22, 14 March 2021 (UTC)

If you look up the longest drive of all time it says Mike austin at 475yds but if you look up tiger woods longest drive it is 497 yds i belive so why when i edited that you deleted

Marcin Gugulski
I know the article looked bad, but a quick glance at either the pl wiki article or a search in Google Books should show you that the subject is likely notable. You can always ping me re Polish topics. WP:BEFORE is a good practice to remember. Cheers, --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:43, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
- Piotrus, thank you for the notice but only a few people in the world do speak polish and please make yourself comfortable that when an article is eligible for WP:BLPPROD, this article had no sources at all. WP:BEFORE is not an obligation in such cases. It has primarily the sense that sources will be added to the article. Thank you. CommanderWaterford (talk) 08:17, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
PUBLISH
i want to PUBLISH my article but don't know how to go about it
- @VICOBOWYAN: - I suggest you start by reading the links I left you on your talk page, especially WP:YFA. If you have afterwards any question would be best to adress them at the WP:TEAHOUSE. CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:19, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
Question
Hello, I translated 3 articles from Farsi like my other articles and announced them in the discussion of my articles, but one user transferred my articles to the draft. Did I make a mistake?--MadD (talk) 06:48, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- @MADdi0X Well you will need to ask this question the one who moved your article to draft - best would be to contact the user, Discospinster, directly on their talk page at User talk:Discospinster. CommanderWaterford (talk) 10:30, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, I did the same thing. Before giving you a message, I asked him a question on my talk page. Unfortunately, they did not answer, and I had to ask you a question.--MadD (talk) 12:08, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- @MADdi0X, Well, first of all you should give the editor some time to answer and further as I wrote before I suggest asking on their talk page. CommanderWaterford (talk) 15:57, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- Hello again, thank you for your good help. I apologize. Is there a way to change your username on Wikipedia?--MadD (talk) 20:20, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- @MADdi0X of course, please have a look at WP:RENAME CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:22, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

- Thank you for the helpful tips you gave me:).And I had another question, if there is no problem, I will ask if the deleted pages can be recreated or should I talk to the delete manager before creating to create؟--MadD (talk) 20:25, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
- @MADdi0X, Sorry but this question I did not understand, best would be to ask such questions at the Wikipedia:Teahouse. CommanderWaterford (talk) 20:30, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
Article to be restored
Hi, I am sorry for not including Edit Summary for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furus I created new section for demographics and included all the information from the "Deleted segment" into it Kindly restore as I am adding more information in it — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mudassarsunge (talk • contribs) 16:09, 4 April 2021 (UTC)
Changes to Transactional Synchronization Extensions
I realize I should have mentioned moving content to the Applications section in the edit summary. You reverted all of my commits to the Applications section as well, if this was done by mistake, it's best to undo your action.
page for deletion
hi, you just nominated a page PrOphecy sun for speedy deletion. It is an old page I created that was unjustly deleted (apparently notriety in Canada's 3rd biggestest city was deemed insufficient), so I was re-working it to have it published. What I am really confused about is the fact that I was working in my sandbox while making the edits and had not published it to my knowlege. I did save all my edits from the previous rendition—is there some coding in that that would have created the page? ShouldI just make all my edits now in the page asit has been created? It will take less than the 7 days. BF (talk) 09:12, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
- Well you published your sandbox article to mainspace. Yes, now you should make all edits in this article. CommanderWaterford (talk) 09:15, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
Can you delete my page Amaneconnect (talk) 13:16, 15 April 2021 (UTC)
About Congressional Armenian Caucus
You wrote on the draft that secondary sources should be cited. Could this page for example be a secondary source about the topic? Thanks in advance. KhndzorUtogh (talk) 17:31, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
Help
Please can you send me the link to create an article directly without the need to send it. LeoPla99 (talk) 17:54, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
- @LeoPla99 Please read Help:Your first article and ask at Wikipedia:Teahouse if you have further questions after you have read it Fiddle Faddle 17:57, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
- @LeoPla99, I am sorry but I do not understand your question. Are you referring to the Article for creation process? CommanderWaterford (talk) 17:57, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
I mean that. What is the page to directly create the article without the need to create a draft.
LeoPla99 (talk) 18:03, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
- @LeoPla99, Question had been answered by @Timtrent CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:08, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:J-Mis%C3%A1
Please review the draft. LeoPla99 (talk) 18:28, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
- @LeoPla99, please understand that more than 5,000 other drafts are currently in the process of being reviewed and it can take up to several months before it finally gets reviewed. Writing on my talk page will not accelerate this process at all. CommanderWaterford (talk) 18:31, 5 April 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I had a small typo when I published this article, and I corrected it by transmitting it. I also added resources to the article. If you have time, take a look to see if the article can stay on the wiki.?--MadD (talk) 18:04, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
Tech News: 2021-14
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- Editors can collapse part of an article so you have to click on it to see it. When you click a link to a section inside collapsed content it will now expand to show the section. The browser will scroll down to the section. Previously such links didn't work unless you manually expanded the content first.
Changes later this week
The citoid API will use for example 2010-12-XXinstead of2010-12for dates with a month but no days. This is because2010-12could be confused with2010-2012instead ofDecember 2010. This is called level 1 instead of level 0 in the Extended Date/Time Format.
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 6 April. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 7 April. It will be on all wikis from 8 April (calendar).
Future changes
PAWS can now connect to the new Wiki Replicas. Cross-database JOINSwill no longer work from 28 April. There is a new way to connect to the databases. Until 28 April both ways to connect to the databases will work. If you think this affects you and you need help you can post on Phabricator or on Wikitech.

@CommanderWaterford Dear Sir, I had replaced dead links with fresh source, as my knowledge techawaz transfer to techgurug. Please check the source and approve the changes.
I added secondary sources on the Congressional Armenian Caucus
As you asked me to, I added a few secondary/tertiary sources on the Congressional Armenian Caucus draft, could you approve it to be a page now, or is there more to be improved? Thanks in advance. KhndzorUtogh (talk) 10:08, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- Few is correct - unfortunately 10 out of 14 of your sources are primary Sources (see Wikipedia:No original research) or self published ones. I doubt that any reviewer will accept this draft right now. If you have further questions please head towards WP:AFCHD - thank you. CommanderWaterford (talk) 10:18, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
Michael Ballweg
Hello, you suggested to delete Michael Ballweg. Ballweg is the most known anti-corona-anti-government activist in Germany. Please start a discussion about this deleation. Thanks! --Outdoor-Bro (talk) 11:12, 6 April 2021 (UTC)
- @Outdoor-Bro An Anti (or Pro) Corona Activist does not mean that the person is generally notable per WP:GNG for an Article in Wikipedia, please make yourself comfortable with the notability policies like WP:BIO and WP:GNG. Furthermore your article lacks lots of inline citations, many phrases are not sourced anyway.Discussion could you raise at the talk page of the article.

Oliver Grau Page
Hi, noting was removed, but moved only..! Literature from the beginning to the literature section in the end. So that it makes more sense. Please restore.
Why are you not answering?
When you are just going to delete my message ill post it again. Until you answer me. You are not a historian, you are just an editor what source am I supposed to cite the old medallion of Murtag or his stone manuscript that is not published in any other language than Bulgarian even if I cite that you will still remove it, You don't have any information, I have the information and I'm trying to fix the falsehoods that are currently on display. I removed some text because it is false according to new data. For example I removed that Krum comes from turkic origin not only because it's false and also because you can make that stupid connection with every name. For exmple Attina(Athena) the greek goddess and Attila the hun mean the same thing in old sumerian does that mean Attila was greek or the other way around Attina(Athena) was hunnic? FullPlat (talk) 12:26, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- First of all I am expecting at least somewhat polite tone, @FullPlat - you received several warnings from several reviewers for disruptive editing so far. If you want to continue contributing here and not being blocked soon you better make yourself comfortable with our policies, especially Wikipedia:No original research, and read carefully the warnings we gave you. If you continue contributing this way you will be blocked soon. PS: You have no idea if I am a historian or not. CommanderWaterford (talk) 12:34, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
