User talk:GPL93

Hello,

I would like to request a review of the G11 speedy deletion tag to this page.

This draft has been created so as to eliminate any promotional/advertising framing and now summarises coverage from multiple independent, reliable secondary sources. The article emphasises third-party coverage rather than self-described achievements and includes an explicit limitation of available coverage.

As the creator of the page, I understand I cannot remove the tag myself. I request a further review of the current version and a subsequent removal the speedy deletion tag if they agree it no longer meets the criteria for CSD G11.

Many thanks Sam Moffatt Roast (talk) 14:16, 4 February 2026 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by ~2026-26122-02 (talk)

There is no basis for your deletion. You keep mentioning an exclusionary list, but have not presented. The record section is there for a reason. These are 100+ year records, for 1,000s of teams, essentially the highest record honors a coach can earn, only other is the NCAA all time wins leader. One person. That is the list you are maintaining? Only one person. Please present me the link youre mentioning. Centurion Seraph (talk) 17:42, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Centurion Seraph, that is how it works. NCAA career records aren't included in the player infobox at all. We don't have school or conference records for Tom Izzo, Mike Krzyzewski, or John Wooden. Why is May an exception to the rule? Once again, to include a discussion would need to be made at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College basketball (or even possibly at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Basketball). Best, GPL93 (talk) 17:58, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Once again youre suggesting there is a rule or exclusionary list. I believe it should absolutely be included on their pages. You recognize them by two things: national championships and all-time wins records. To say because somebody didnt take the time to add on another separate article means it is prohibited is hardly accurate. You deleted an established section of records which had been in the infobox for months, with many and the most senior editors seeing no grounds to delete. Then you delete yourself and say start a discussion if you want it included, disregarding and stating generally or always has been excluded with no proof. & to say I need to others’ permission by starting a discussion for you to stop deleting them. Shouldnt you start a discussion on whether to delete an established section based on your belief some other pages dont have records listed. As I said, these are 100+ year records and some of the highest honors for a coach. There is nothing to say they dont belong that you have presented. I fail to see the problem with this article. Centurion Seraph (talk) 18:49, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Centurion Seraph THEN CREATE A CONSENSUS FOR INCLUSION! There have been many editors over many years who have decided these are not to be included. The editorial standard has been not to include, where is the proof that explicitly says these records should be included? GPL93 (talk) 19:13, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

The Template:Infobox college coach literally says “ coaching_records

Coaching records, e.g. most all-time wins”

Records is listed four separate times in the template for records!! e.g. “Records

Most wins in Michigan history (194)”

You dont even have to imagine another team. These are 100% listed in the template, aside from the fact we dont generate lists of things we can do. We have lists of things forbidden, and you have not shown anything. To the contrary, it is the standard to include per the template. Centurion Seraph (talk) 21:11, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Is it actually used in practice though? Because actual editing history leans towards not including. I'll create a consensus discussion anyway. Best, GPL93 (talk) 23:09, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war, according to the reverts you've made to Dusty May. This means that you are repeatedly reverting content back to how you think it should be, despite knowing that other editors disagree. Once it is known that there is a disagreement, users are expected to collaborate with others, avoid editing disruptively, and try to reach a consensus – rather than repeatedly reverting the changes made by other users.

Important points to note:

1. Edit warring is disruptive behavior – regardless of how many reverts you have made;
2. Do not engage in edit warring – even if you believe that you are right.

You need to discuss the disagreement on the article's talk page and work towards a revision that represents consensus among everyone involved. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution if discussions reach an impasse. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you continue to engage in edit warring, you may be blocked from editing. --Hammersoft (talk) 17:48, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

@Hammersoft: The addition of the conference and school references is against the norm regarding college basketball coaches. I have advised User:Centurion Seraph to start a consensus discussion, but in the meantime would it make sense to remove the school and conference records from the infobox given that no prominent coach has them included (ex: Tom Izzo, Mike Krzyzewski, Jay Wright, John Wooden, etc.) and for players even NCAA career records aren't to be included in the infobox. Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:07, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

I'm not involved in this dispute from the stand point of content. I'm interested in the edit war stopping. Both you and User:Centurion Seraph keep reverting each other. This ends now. Please follow WP:DR. --Hammersoft (talk) 18:27, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

@Hammersoft: Then the conference and school records need to be removed until a consensus is reached as keeping these in the infobox would be an abnormality. If you look atCenturion Seraph's talk page there are multiple instances of edit-warring. Editors Cbl62 & Jweiss11 have confronted them multiple times regarding various editing issues, including edit-warring. Best, GPL93 (talk) 18:34, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

I'm not inclined to block now. I am inclined to the discussion continuing, without further reversions. I would recommend this discussion be moved to Talk:Dusty May. --Hammersoft (talk) 19:35, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

@Hammersoft: I am not asking for a block. I am asking that the infobox content involved be removed for the time being given there is a precedent of not including them. If Centurion Seraph can form a consensus for inclusion then they can be added back. Best, GPL93 (talk) 19:59, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

To the contrary, Template:Infobox college coach lists “records” four separate times as grounds for inclusion. Including the exact records being labeled as unprecedented are used in an example on what to include. Centurion Seraph (talk) 21:24, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

I will say again, both of you need to move this discussion to Talk:Dusty May. It's obvious there's no moving the needle on your opinions with each other. Get others involved, and if nobody contributes then start an RfC. Talking past each other isn't going to achieve anything. --Hammersoft (talk) 00:29, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

GPL93, thanks for pinging me. The example presented at Template:Infobox college coach has indeed included a team-specific record in the coaching_records field for many years. But you are correct that the vast majority of the instantiations of this infobox do not present team or conference records. Would should have a discussion at Template talk:Infobox college coach, Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College football, or Wikipedia talk:WikiProject College basketball to work out a consensus on how the coaching_records field should be used.

Hello!

I noticed that the page for Michael Carbonara currently redirects to the 2026 United States House of Representatives elections in Florida article. I have been gathering extensive biographical information and secondary sources to draft a standalone article for him. Before I proceed with "breaking" the redirect and publishing the draft, I wanted to consult with you or the community regarding his notability status. While I understand he is a candidate in the upcoming elections, my research suggests he may meet the criteria for a separate article based on his professional background and significant media coverage independent of the election cycle. Do you believe a standalone article is justified at this stage, or is it preferred to keep the information merged within the election page until further developments? I would appreciate your guidance on how to best contribute this content without violating Wikipedia's consensus on political candidates. Best regards Grcnfat (talk) 10:35, 8 May 2026 (UTC)

Looking through my old speedies, I came up with this bluelink: Draft:Kezias Kazuba Mwale. You tagged it as G11 in December.

I do believe the sourcing is better, but this may be sockpuppetry from the original page creator. Same sort of self-created image (but they've shucked the metadata).

What do you think? BusterD (talk) 01:37, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

While in your space, you ever give the mop any thought? I trust you. You're not normally controversial, except perhaps when Philadelphia is represented at some sporting event... BusterD (talk) 01:54, 14 May 2026 (UTC)

Hello GPL93, Thank you for reviewing my draft of Draft:Gyftr, which you deleted on 15 May 2026 under G11. I had disclosed myself as a paid editor before submission and attempted to write the draft in compliance with neutrality and verifiability policies. The draft used 24 citations from publications including BusinessToday, Business Standard, LiveMint, VCCircle, CNBC-TV18, and Entrepreneur India.

Could you help me understand what specifically in the content read as promotional?

I would like to learn from this for any future work and would appreciate any guidance you can offer.

Thank you for your time.
