Hello, Derek J Moore,

Thank you for creating Parkview Library.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

There don't seem to be many references indepednent of the library that lend notability to this locally important topic. Most of the reference related to the context of reading in South Africa more broadly, which could be helpfully added elsewhere. I also wonder about the relevance of national literacy rates in Parkview, which seems to a be relatively affluent part of Johannesburg. Are there figures on local literacy being problematic?

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Klbrain}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Klbrain (talk) 09:00, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

{{Re|Klbrain}} Thanks for the helpful feedback and additional guidance. They are much appreciated. Parkview is a highly affluent area. Wealth and literacy should not, however, be conflated. The library also serves several high-functioning state schools, with children drawn in from various socio-economc groups. Derek J Moore (talk) 12:31, 10 April 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to Council on Higher Education. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it does not appear to be finished. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. —asparagusus (interaction) ^sprouts! 20:37, 1 May 2024 (UTC)

Thanks very much for the feedback. You are absolutely right. I had hoped to work on in quickly, but ran out of time Derek J Moore (talk) 05:23, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

That's completely fine! I just wanted to make sure you hadn't put it in mainspace by accident. Happy editing! —asparagusus (interaction) ^sprouts! 21:02, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

Was just looking at code view for my profile page, and I saw the following instruction Please add categories at the bottom of this page, and interwikis on Wikidata!! Now trying to figure out what an inter wiki is? Derek J Moore (talk) 20:06, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited SADiLaR, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page OER. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Thanks so much for pointing this out. A silly mistake on my part. I have rectified the matter. Much appreciated Derek J Moore (talk) 04:22, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I've moved this article to draftspace because I believe it is a better candidate for the WP:AFC process given that two of the citations in question appear to be to yourself. This is not automatically against Wikipedia policy, but I would recommend reading WP:SELFPUB and WP:SELFCITE to understand Wikipedia guidance on doing this safely.

Ahead of the AfC review, I would also recommend trying to find more sources that use the WP:COMMONNAME for the phenomenon that you're describing, along with more sources that involve editorial review - blogs and student newspapers don't really contribute much towards WP:NOTABILITY. BrigadierG (talk) 21:33, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi BrigadierG. Okay. I’ll check the citations. Thanks for the advice. I recently have been granted access to the Wikipedia Library. I’m not sure if that is at your reccomendation. But I hope to up my citation quality now. Thanks Derek J Moore (talk) 04:26, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Good luck! I certainly like the premise of the article, and as a college dropout who has been disillusioned with the process, I do wish educators would set more of these kinds of assignments. BrigadierG (talk) 10:34, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

Higher Education is a mess at the moment. Moving on was probably a good idea. https://www.hepi.ac.uk/2024/05/11/weekend-reading-dismantling-the-marketisation-of-higher-education/ PS I like the slap with a trout button. I have put that on my page Derek J Moore (talk) 11:23, 21 May 2024 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Johannesburg Emergency Water Supply requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, a group of people, an individual animal, an organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content, or an organized event that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia.

Just checking if all is fine. I have addressed the issues for speedy deletion, kept the wording about an opinion, but have also substituted my position satisfactorily Derek J Moore (talk) 11:23, 29 June 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Derek J Moore,

Thank you for creating Johannesburg Emergency Water Supply.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

The article reads like a news release, is focussed simply on current (and current for how long?) events, and should give a fuller picture including background on the water supply, the issues and difficulties, and why it is a notable subject.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|LindsayH}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Hello! I have seen that you created the article Kloof Street Public Library. I love libraries and am very happy to have more library articles on Wikipedia, but the article was written in an extremely bias and promotional tone. I have edited the article to make in more encyclopedic, but please be more careful in the future as promotion is not allowed on Wikipedia. -- NotCharizard ^🗨 11:11, 28 July 2024 (UTC)

Surprised that you have deleted an article in Sandbox. I was looking at the criteria for Wikinews https://en.wikinews.org/wiki/Wikinews:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion. It reads "Of course, the Sandbox is exempt from these rules and should not be deleted even though it may satisfy some of the criteria. In the case of vandalism, spam, or copyright violations, the violating text should be removed from the sandbox. " Derek J Moore (talk) 12:55, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Hello, Derek J Moore. I see that you are actively editing this article, but you don't seem to be working to resolving any of the issues with it, rather you are adding to them by simply updating current events. Could i suggest that you work on actually defining/describing the subject of the Johannesburg Emergency Water Supply, in such a way that it is both encyclopaedic and not a largely opinion piece (apparently) aimed at local users of the water supply. I'd suggest that you need a structure which first defines the problem and the reasons for it, then describes official/potential solutions, and finally gives current events as a small part of the article. If i can help in any way, please don't hesitate to ask, here or on my talk page, as i would be happy to help improve the article ~ Lindsay^Hello 13:19, 13 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello Lindsay. Thanks for the advice and assistance. Its likely that in the next few weeks, a new picture about the water emergency is going to emerge. I will try to keep this up to date. So that readers can see what is happening with the water supply and perhaps hold city officials to account. Again, my thanks. Derek J Moore (talk) 19:03, 14 December 2024 (UTC)

Hello Derek J Moore, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Luno (cryptocurrency company), should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Luno (cryptocurrency company).

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|BuySomeApples}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Good Day Fellow Wikimedian

I write to invite you to a Wikimedia ZA birthday celebration which will take place on 22 February 2025 at the Goethe Institut in Parktown, Johannesburg and Code Bridge in Cape Town as well as online if you will not be able to join in person.

Wikimedia South Africa is a chapter founded on 25 February 2012 after being approved as a chapter by the Wikimedia Foundation on 26 March 2011. Our chapter seeks to promote local awareness of the projects and their proper academic use, encourage translation efforts into local languages and support the creation of local free knowledge and media

We are always looking to support South Africans or Africans in the promotion of free knowledge and to promote the enhancement of local knowledge in local languages on wikipedia and online for the benefit of all.

As a chapter engagement is an important strategic initiative and we would encourage you to check out the chapter on the links below. Links:

Hello, Derek J Moore. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "Social Publishing library".

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 nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia! DreamRimmer bot II (talk) 07:25, 2 March 2025 (UTC)

Hi Derek J Moore. Thank you for your work on Bookdash. Another editor, Justiyaya, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

The article is probably notable but tonally it appears to be quite promotional. Sourcing is not great either, with Timeslive.co.za being a newspaper but appearing to be written by the subject themselves. Would draftify if it was within the time limit.

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Justiyaya}}. (Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Justiyaya 01:59, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

Hello Justiyaya. Thanks for the reply. Well spotted about the self promo piece about book dash on the Sunday Times newspaper. I missed that. Will include a few academic references that argue that the absence of appropriate children's reading material is affecting literacy.. Tell me what you mean by "draftify"? There was no time limit either. Best Derek J Moore (talk) 07:38, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

Thank you for the work you have put in to Tshepisong - with great references! Wizzy…☎ 10:09, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for noticing Wizzy. Pleased to meet you. Am very interested to hear about Wikipedia in Schools and your experience in this area. Am going to be running a workshop soon here at the local high school. Be good to pick someone's brain. Best Derek J Moore (talk) 10:53, 14 March 2025 (UTC)

Although everyone is welcome to contribute to Wikipedia, introducing hoaxes, such as Tangible Africa, is considered to be vandalism and is prohibited. If you are interested in how accurate Wikipedia is, a more constructive test method would be to try to find inaccurate statements that are already in Wikipedia—and then to correct them if possible. If you would like to make test edits, please use the sandbox. Under section G3 of the criteria for speedy deletion, the page has been nominated for deletion. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges.

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. Mekomo (talk) 13:43, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

As far as I can see, there is no user called Mekomo? Happy to respond to a Wikimedians without a red line. Derek J Moore (talk) 15:18, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to Tangible Africa. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Whpq (talk) 13:56, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

No worries. I was wondering why this new article in main spaced looked so half-assed (pardon my language) from an editor that has been here for some time. Your explanation that it was meant to be a draft explains it. Have fun developing your draft. Cheers. -- Whpq (talk) 16:52, 24 March 2025 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Studiosity is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Studiosity until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Hello @OatPancake. Thanks for the message. I see that you are quite new at editing. Very pleased to meet both experienced and new editors. Will reply in the designated location. Is helpful to have the specific criteria for deletion clearly stated. Thanks Derek J Moore (talk) 12:27, 30 April 2025 (UTC)

Hello, Derek J Moore

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Coeusin, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, Social impact publishing, for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.

If you wish to contest the deletion:

1. Edit the page
2. Remove the text that looks like this: {{proposed deletion/dated...}}
3. Click the Publish changes button.

If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Coeusin}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

(Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.)

Hello Derek J Moore,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Perskor for deletion, because it's a redirect from an article title to a namespace that's not for articles.

If you don't want Perskor to be deleted, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

Thanks @Jonesey95 for cleaning up the documentation section. Have attempted documentation but am thus far not successful. Still trying though Derek J Moore (talk) 16:17, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

There is no actual template code. I have found that the easiest way to create a simple template is to find a different simple template, copy its code, and modify it to do what you want it to do. To edit the documentation, click the "edit" link inside the green Documentation box. – Jonesey95 (talk) 01:45, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Ca was:

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

• in-depth (not just brief mentions about the subject or routine announcements)
• reliable
• secondary
• strictly independent of the subject
  

Make sure you add references that meet all four of these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

 The comment the reviewer left was:

I am on the fence for this draft. On hand there is significant coverage about a product of the organization, TANKS, but there is little independent coverage about Tangible Africa itself. I recommend finding more independent sources that describe this organization in detail.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

• If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Tangible Africa and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
• If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
• If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Each Wikipedia has its own policies, guidelines and other conventions. What they do on e.g. Polish Wikipedia is of no concern to us: they don't tell us what to do, and in return, we don't tell them what to do.

Please either (a) find 60 or so articles that could use your new template and category, and then make a formal request at WP:WSS/P; or (b) tag each of them with {{db-author}} so that they can be deleted per WP:CSD#G7. Thank you --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 23:10, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

Content you added to the above draft appears to have been copied from https://openplaques.org/, which is marked as being protected by copyright. Unfortunately, for copyright reasons, the text of the plaques had to be removed. In South Africa, such plaques are protected by copyright law, even though they are displayed in a public place. See Commons:Copyright rules by territory/South Africa for more information on freedom of panorama in South Africa. You won't be able to upload any photos of the plaques either, so I have removed that column from the table. Please let me know if you have any questions. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 20:01, 11 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello Diannaa. The colunm of citations had reference to the page on open data. Which says explicitly that the date caned be "re-use the data in any way you see fit. It is released under the Public Domain Dedication and License 1.0." https://openplaques.org/data Derek J Moore (talk) 20:14, 11 August 2025 (UTC)

Sorry but I disagree. They did not write the prose on the plaques; they have collected information about plaques that were created by the Johannesburg Heritage Foundation. Therefore they do not own the copyright on the material, and are not in a position to release it into the public domain. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 01:46, 12 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello Dianna. Thanks for the reply. There are a number of problems with your argument, but let me contact Professor Kathy Munro who is behind most of the work. If I have her (and the foundation’s permission) to include the citations on Wikipedia, then I assume that this problem will fall away. Derek J Moore (talk) 04:49, 12 August 2025 (UTC)

There are other groups who were involved in blue plaques. Including the Wikipedia chapter (WMZA) with a project called Joburgpedia see Wikipedia:GLAM/JoburgpediA. Naturally as Wikipedians, their plaques are openly licensed. Derek J Moore (talk) 05:07, 12 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Diannaa I have texted Professor Kathy Munro via Whatapp. She has NOT yet given explicit permission to add that JHF Blue Plaques but we still need to have a conversation. I will however being adding images and text from the JoburgPedia Digitalization Project to this Johannesburg Blue Plaque list, since this is clearly openly licensed. See the blue plaque at alongside

Also adding @Bobbyshabangu to this conversation so that he can confirm that these plaques are indeed open (He sent me the details about the JoburgPedia Digitalisation project a few days ago). Assuming there are no objections? Best Derek J Moore (talk) 09:20, 14 August 2025 (UTC)

It appears to me that the Johannesburg Heritage Foundation owns the copyright to the prose on the plaques. We need to have documentation that shows in writing that they have given permission for the material to be copied to this website, and are prepared to release the material under license. Wikipedia has procedures in place for this purpose. Please see WP:Donating copyrighted materials for an explanation of how to do it. There's a sample permission email at WP:Consent.

There are already numerous photos of blue plaques uploaded to the Commons. I have nominated the plaque File:Satyagraha-House-1.jpg for deletion so an administrator there can assess whether or not it is okay for us to host these photos. See commons:Commons:Deletion requests/File:Satyagraha-House-1.jpg — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 10:30, 14 August 2025 (UTC)

There are quite a few plaques there. You will have to quite a cull. Derek J Moore (talk) 20:22, 14 August 2025 (UTC)

I am not an admin on the Commons. It will be their decision what to do. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 23:13, 14 August 2025 (UTC)

Your nomination will go down in history though. For an organization concerned with making the world’s knowledge freely available, you are doing exactly the opposite. Derek J Moore (talk) 04:43, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

It's also not a good look if the 10th most popular website in the world has no regard for copyright law or its own copyright policy. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 12:11, 15 August 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Diannaa I contacted Barbara at the Joburg Heritage Association (I became a member recently) and enquired whether JHA had objections to me posting Blue Plaques onto Wikimedia. Her reply was "No objection", good publicity". I see that you saved those files in your sandbox. That's very kind. I'm assuming that I can restore the files. Perhaps, to protect Wikimedia, I'll use one your very helpful templates? Derek J Moore (talk) 13:01, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

Sorry but we can't take your word for it that it's okay for Wikipedia to publish this content. To protect the rights of copyright holders, we need to have documentation directly from the copyright holder that they have released the content under a compatible license. This is done by them sending an email directly to our Volunteer Response Team. Please see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission as to what you can do to get this process started. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:29, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

Thanks @Diannaa. Of course. Have you had a reply from Commons admin yet? Derek J Moore (talk) 13:31, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

No, nothing yet. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:53, 19 August 2025 (UTC)

@DiannaaHello @Diannaa So let’s start with this issue first. Please restore the column you deleted.Derek J Moore (talk) 16:50, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

Update: the test image that I nominated for deletion has now been deleted, and the admin who deleted it has initiated a mass deletion request for the remainder of the images. He agrees with me both on the copyright status of the prose on the plaques and the issue of freedom of panorama in South Africa. You can view the deletion request at Commons:Deletion requests/Files in Category:Blue plaques in Johannesburg. There's also a brief discussion at my Commons talk page: commons:User talk:Diannaa#FOP in South Africa, where you will also finds links to deletion nominations for blue plaque images in other South African cities.— Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:24, 3 October 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for your contributions to Research infrastructure. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Your edit to Draft:Research infrastructure has been removed in whole or in part, as it appears to have added copyrighted material to Wikipedia without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. If you are the copyright holder, please read Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials for information on how to contribute your work appropriately. For legal reasons, Wikipedia strictly cannot host copyrighted text or images from print media or digital platforms without an appropriate and verifiable license. Contributions infringing on copyright will be removed. You may use external websites or publications as a source of information, but not as a source of content, such as sentences or images—you must write using your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously, and persistent violators of our copyright policy will be blocked from editing. See Wikipedia:Copying text from other sources for more information. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:08, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello @Diannaa, so good to bump into you again. You made a wrong call last time. The admins did not delete the plaques, you said infringed copyright. It would have been polite to say. Sorry. I made a mistake. Looks like you are about to make a wrong call again. Now I understand the pressure to maintain your position on top of your league table. But there are five pillars of Wikipedia. And assume good faith is one of them. So I am going to assume you have good faith, and you will show me the source of my infringement. Derek J Moore (talk) 16:43, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

The fact that no Commons administrator has yet acted on or commented on my proposed deletion of the images does not mean that they are okay to keep. We are all volunteers here, and there's a big backlog of deletion requests up for review (see commons:Commons:Deletion requests. There are 5782 open deletion requests, the oldest being 126 days old. We will have to wait, and someone will make a decision eventually.

Regarding the draft, I found the matching content here. The matching content is on page 60. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 22:03, 7 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello Diana (@Diannaa) I've not heard from you so I'll assume that Diana is fine. Been meaning to reply to you about the Research infrastructure PDF page that you sent me, and thank you for finding it. I'll take your word that you found a match. The problem is, that's not where I sourced the lead paragraph from. I found it on German Wikipedia. See dewiki research infrastructure (Q1438053) There's a similar version in Swedish and in Polish all licensed under a CC BY SA. I've tried to summarize them all. Hope that meets with your approval. Best Derek J Moore (talk) 14:11, 7 October 2025 (UTC)

It's okay to copy/translate from other-language Wikipedias, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 14:49, 7 October 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Sophisticatedevening. An edit that you recently made to Joburg Centre for Software Engineering seemed to be generated using a large language model (an "AI chatbot" or other application using such technology). Text produced by these applications is usually unsuitable for an encyclopedia, and may contain factually inaccurate statements, fictitious citations, or other problems. You should instead read reliable sources and then summarize those in your own words. Your edit may have been reverted. If you want to practice editing, please use your sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Sophisticatedevening^(talk) 12:52, 22 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello Derek J Moore, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Vredehoek library, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Vredehoek library.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Wasianpower}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Howzit @GeographicAccountant. Thanks for the proposal. With all due respects I think that the merge is a poor idea, because of interface. Take out your phone. Preferably not a phablet, but a cheap phome with a small viewport. Compare the two templates with each other and tell me what you see! On my side the one template involves lots of sideways scrolling.

Hello, Derek J Moore,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Guessitsavis, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged Middelburg Mpumalanga Map for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. You may find our guide for writing quality articles to be extremely informative. Also, you may want to consider working on future articles in draft space first, where they cannot be deleted for lacking content.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Guessitsavis}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

@MichealKal: Can I also say what a pleasure it is to have a fellow African on the job. I hope that you enjoyed Manilla. I think that they have a very interesting experiment going there with their Lsjbot. Send me an email and lets have a meeting! Derek J Moore (talk) 07:36, 21 November 2025 (UTC)

Hi Derek, Thank you. I have been able to read comments from Jan-Hendrik about the AI.

AI usage is discouraged though Wikipedia does not ban AI use outright, but it requires that editors follow all core policies like Verifying the information. But it's alright if it's generally grammar and I'll take the flag off for now. Thank you Derek!. MichealKal (talk) 09:41, 21 November 2025 (UTC)

Thank-you sir. Have a good Friday! Derek J Moore (talk) 11:06, 21 November 2025 (UTC)

Hello David. Thanks for the feedback. I'll pass the message onto Onke. He's doing great work in writing about the lives of the so called "Born Free's". His first book was about being educated in a privileged school (as a black teen) and the second is about the culture of corruption (Canary) in government and whistleblowing. Two important themes!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. This is a notice to inform you that a tag has been placed on Weltevredenpark Public Library/map requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

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".

Thank you for creating Wits MIND Institute.

Too small to warrant coverage as an institute, it might be better to reframe this as a biography of Benjamin Rosman. Most of the sources are from associated entities.
