User talk:Joe Decker/Archive 25

Hi I recently wanted to work on this page and saw it had been deleted for poor notability and references. I believe I have the proper references and am requesting if I may submit some changes to the page and see if it gets accepted. Thank you so very much for your time and will be here patiently waiting for your response at your earliest convenience. Vlolv (talk) 04:00, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi, thanks ... really the key step is showing me the references. I'll give my opinion when I see them as to whether they're sufficient to override the previous community consensus, and if they are, I'll restore. If not, I'll show you how you can appeal my decision. Fair?

I do realize that newer editors at Wikipedia often find it difficult to make rhyme or reasons of our notability requirements. You may also take a look at User:Joe Decker/IsThisNotable. I'm still working on refining it, but my hope is to provide a more step-by-step (if still not simple) approach to explaining what we need in terms of demonstrating notability. As the topic is a band, you will also wish to be aware that routine announcements are generally not considered toward this standard. I look forward to your reply. --j⚛e decker^talk 06:05, 29 July 2015 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your reply, I have gathered my references and will list them here for you. Let me know where to go from there if there is a place to go from there. Again thank you so very much for your time.

Rahul Verma is protected from creation, so only administrators can create it. I have noticed that article “Rahul Verma” was deleted 5 times in last so many years, but it was never related to Rahul Verma (activist). Since the name is available and only admin can create it. Please see if it can be unprotected and redirected i.e Rahul Verma (activist) to Rahul Verma. Thanks Shibanihk (talk) 11:23, 3 August 2015 (UTC)

Hey, Joe. Can you delete redirect page Center (American and Canadian football), so that I might move Center (gridiron football) to that title?

Thank you Joe for the link to the resources for new editors! Actually I'm an "occasional" contributor who still has much to learn. As an example in 2006 I dredged up big chunks of minutiae about the history of Ashfield NSW but left it on the Talk page because it would have pulled the article out of balance...

In regard to the most recent edits, I do understand that the "Jumpdrive" and "XO" topics do not yet have sufficient arm's length references. If the game gets 4 or 5 independent sources covering it (in a central way, not just a mention) I will fix and resubmit it in a year or so. Meanwhile I may visit the Teahouse to discuss a topic I am pondering about Albert Aramburu, whose name was given to an island in Richardson Bay:

http://richardsonbay.audubon.org/aramburu-island http://www.sfgate.com/science/article/Richardson-Bay-atoll-renovated-as-nature-preserve-2436440.php

... There aren't many electronic third party sources about the guy because his career (ending as head of the California Conservation Corps) was mostly pre internet. But from the topics you linked, it seems that I can refer to (reputable) California newspapers for the purpose of notability. So I can still do this one; it will just take more work! Anyway, thank you again! Juliannechat (talk) 17:24, 8 August 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the kind note!

With respect to Jumpdrive, that may be the best answer, but you may also try the VideoGames wikiproject and leave a note, there are some folks there who may know of offline sources that are relevant, or specialist sources that I wouldn't know about as a generalist.

With respect to Aramburu -- I do want to emphasize that offline sources are fine. Harder to find, for sure, but they're certainly allowed. I did take a look at a couple of periodical databases I have access to (Highbeam, NYT archives, not that I would have expected the latter to find anything) and didn't find quite enough, but I'm more than willing to believe that there's stuff out there. What I am seeing is mostly about the island, consider, if there's not enough for a biography, seeing if there's enough for an article on the island, which would provide a mention of Al, and we could create a redirect to the island. This is a pretty common sort of refactoring we do when dealing with people who end up largely being known for one thing, but .. again, offline sources could entirely save the day as well.

Sorry for the slow response! Cheers, --j⚛e decker^talk 03:20, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi. And thanks for finally closing that article. However, in your closing remarks, you say, "... I would recommend that any newer participants opining for deletion ...." Excuse my presumptiveness, but don't you mean "participants opining for keeping"? Onel5969 ^{TT me} 14:27, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

You are correct, indeed. :) Mea culpa, and thanks for the note! --j⚛e decker^talk 15:59, 18 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi there,

I've recently come across the Janet Emerson Bashen article. I attempted to improve it by updating the references and removing some of the unnecessary ramblings, but I could not find any secondary sources to support its notability per WP:BASIC. As such, I plan on proposing the article for deletion once again. Seeing as you were the admin who closed the previous discussion as no consensus (see: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Janet Emerson Bashen), I felt that you should be notified. Given that it has been nearly a year since the previous deletion discussion, do you think it should be handled through a deletion review, or simply be proposed again? I plan on notifying all editors heavily involved in the article when/if the deletion is proposed. Thanks. Greedo8 04:54, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi, @Greedo8:. I'd definitely recommend simply putting it at AfD again. While we don't appreciate, in many cases, renominations right after a previous AfD, it's been more than long enough. Thanks for the note! --j⚛e decker^talk 17:33, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Would you please kindly explain why you moved Doug Batchelor to a user page? This is one of the most significant, influential, and sometimes controversial figures currently within the Seventh-Day Adventist movement, and is way, way, way beyond notable. Yup, article needs much better sourcing, but I don't believe userfication is the correct action here. But of course I may not be seeing the whole picture. 78.26 _{(spin me / revolutions)}

I originally deleted it as a result of closing an AfD discussion. I restored it on request from a user who believes, as you do, that there's enough material to establish notability, but given the deletion closure, but in this case, to override the AfD consensus, Valoem and/or you will have to "show me" that there's enough new evidence to override a community consensus. --j⚛e decker^talk 01:30, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi there. I am not sure if this is something you can do, but would it be possible to receive a copy of the page for Joseph Hanna, which I believe you deleted in August of 2014? 208.83.121.42 (talk) 19:42, 24 August 2015 (UTC)

Hi Joe

I am writing to you as sometime back you flagged an article as having overly promotional wording.

The message on screen reads: This article contains content that is written like an advertisement. Please help improve it by removing promotional content and inappropriate external links, and by adding encyclopedic content written from a neutral point of view. (September 2014)

Since then I've tried to edit a few times and removed the parts that seemed to me overly promotional. But the message is still there. Is there some way to remove the message? Am I missing something?

Also, there's another message on the page which dates back earlier saying:

This biographical article needs additional citations for verification, as its only attribution is to IMDb. IMDb may not be a reliable source for biographical information. Please help by adding additional, reliable sources for verification. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately, especially if potentially libelous or harmful. (January 2013)

If it is possible, I'd be so grateful for your advice on what can be done about this. I did not create the original article but I am interested in cleaning it up as Max is my father-in-law. I know all the details to be correct, having heard them from him directly and from others who worked with him. But there simply isn't anything on the internet that I can link to to verify his TV work. If you have time time, your advice would be very welcome. We do have copies of all the books and I could scan photos in of those if there is someone to send them to and if this would help verify that he did write the books. And some of the bios in the books reference the documentary version that came before some of the books, or the movie that came after, so I could probably provide supporting evidence of some, but not all.

Thank you!

This is a message from the Wikimedia Foundation. Translations are available.

As you may know, the Wikimedia Foundation Board of Trustees approved a new "Access to nonpublic information policy" on 25 April 2014 after a community consultation. The former policy has remained in place until the new policy could be implemented. That implementation work is now being done, and we are beginning the transition to the new policy.

An important part of that transition is helping volunteers like you sign the required confidentiality agreement. All Wikimedia volunteers with access to nonpublic information are required to sign this new agreement, and we have prepared some documentation to help you do so.

The Wikimedia Foundation is requiring that anyone with access to nonpublic information sign the new confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain their access. You are receiving this email because you have access to nonpublic information and are required to sign the confidentiality agreement under the new policy.

Signing the confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information is conducted and tracked using Legalpad on Phabricator. The general confidentiality agreement is now ready, and the OTRS agreement will be ready after 22 September 2015. We have prepared a guide on Meta-Wiki to help you create your Phabricator account and sign the new agreement: Confidentiality agreement for nonpublic information/How to sign

If you have any questions or experience any problems while signing the new agreement, please visit this talk page or email me (gvarnumwikimedia.org). Again, please sign this confidentiality agreement by 15 December 2015 (OTRS users have until 22 December 2015) to retain your access to nonpublic information. If you do not wish to retain this access, please let me know and we will forward your request to the appropriate individuals.

@Books64: Sorry I haven't replied more quickly.

Generally, if you believe you've addressed the problem, and the tag doesn't indicate otherwise, it's okay to remove it. If someone contests it, then you discuss on the talk page. WP:BRD applies in most circumstances, and might be some helpful guidance.

As for IMDB, yes, it's possible to game IMDB submissions. Generally, we look for reliable sources with strong editorial processes. This not only verifies the information is accurate, but also gives a third-party, neutral grounding in what aspects of a subject warrant coverage, and which don't, in other words, it helps us reduce "spin".

Because you do have a stake in the game, that is, you are related to the subject, you will want to review WP:PSCOI. I am not suggesting you've done anything wrong, just letting you know what your COI policies are. Thank you for noting that. --j⚛e decker^talk 17:56, 14 September 2015 (UTC)

Hi! Joe Decker. Why did you delete the Passfeed page？ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ealltech11 (talk • contribs) 06:04, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

I judged that that consensus of the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Passfeed was that the article should be deleted, largely for not meeting the notability requirements of WP:CORP. --joe decker^talk 06:30, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi Joe,

I was hoping you would be able to provide some guidance on the best way to get an article published? I work in the Hedge Fund industry and there is no current page in existence for the company I work for. I am aware of the COI rules and am conscious of the need for neutrality whilst writing.

I have put together some text which contains a number of third party references.

Any guidance would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scorb1 (talk • contribs) 14:26, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Scorb,

In terms of article-writing strategy here, I think the key thing is starting from the right references. What the Wikipedia community is looking for in terms of those is complicated, third-party is definitely part of it, but arm's length third-party is really more like it.

What this means is that the community generally discounts the neutrality of sources that look like press releases (e.g., most things printed in business journals), that look like interviews, and reporting of routine corporate events (hirings, firings, etc.) What's left? Sources that provide a broader arm's-length view of a company. If you can find a couple such articles, that's a great place to start, looking first for the information provided in them (and which parts are emphasized or frequently mentioned), and using that as guidance for the main article content. From there, very routine factual information (employee count, headquarters location, name of CEO, things of that sort) can of course be filled in from other sources.

Finally, I would suggest that you try writing the article through our Wikipedia:Articles for creation process. There's a group of volunteers who work on draft articles and try and provide some feedback on how a draft is doing with respect to our neutrality and notability guidelines. While not perfect, and while it could be faster, the nice thing about AfC is that most articles that make it through this process never end up never facing a deletion process, and those can be pretty drawn-out and frustrating.

Best of luck! --joe decker^talk 15:34, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Would you please userfy this article for me so I can improve it? I wasn't aware that it was even up for deletion because the nominator never notified me. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 00:30, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Speaking of that, in another AfD (in which the article was later undeleted after I rationalized with that deleting admin), I brought up the issue about my not having been notified (of the original prod; not the AfD (the user in question didn't create the AfD discussion): , ); but then not even a week later, s/he did it again. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 00:49, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Userfied to User:Erpert/Sarah Shevon, no problem.

Sadly (at least to me), we've never gotten consensus that such notifications are required. Most of tools do it pretty automatically, so it shouldn't be a hardship for most editors. Humph. --joe decker^talk 04:46, 23 November 2015 (UTC)

Just for the record, the reason Erpert no longer receives courtesy notices from me is that he's announced that several editors (including Spartaz and myself) aren't welcome to post anything on his talk page, and responds with hostility and extreme rudeness even to mandatory notices. See , , , . All he needs to do is to commit to stopping this, which he wouldn't do when the same issue was raised last week. If he wants a punching bag, he can buy one.

You know full well that I didn't say that (and the other examples you posted are irrevelant).

The guy's work has received some reviews that were listed on Rotten Tomatoes and the scanty coverage for his other films should be enough for the director to pass notability guidelines as a whole.

Thanks for the note! There's a review of Deviation , although I don't have a Highbeam subscription anymore so I can't see the whole thing. --joe decker^talk 15:01, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
