== Invitation to participate in a research ==

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this ''''''.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.


The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ] .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
Re: https://en.wikipedia.org/Sylvester_Rivers


Kind Regards,
Thanks, Spartaz, for your thoughtful consideration of this article. I could definitely use some help.
Sylvester Rivers has recorded over one hundred albums with numerous major artists on major labels, many of which are RIAA
certified gold and multi-platinum. He is the composer and co-writer of the title song of the
Michael Henderson album, “In the Night Time,” certified Gold by the RIAA and in the top 10 in two of the
Billboard Charts plus in the top 40 in two other Billboard Charts. WP:NMUSIC lists notability criteria as follows,
“For composers, songwriters, librettists or lyricists: 1. Has credit for writing or co-writing either lyrics or music for a notable composition.”
Sylvester Rivers is mentioned several times in existing Misplaced Pages articles and several Sylvester Rivers works have their own separate Misplaced Pages articles.
The main issue seems to be verifiable sources. However, the main sources I used to verify these claims, Allmusic.com, RIAA.com,
Billboard.com and Discogs.com, are the same ones used in many Good Articles on many major artists such as
Tony Bennett and Nicki Minaj. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. I very much appreciate it. ] (]) 03:59, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
*I'll think you will find that Nicki Minaj and Tony Bennett are not relying on allmusic et al to show notability. The fact that they are used for non-N reasons has no bearing on the fact that they are not enough on their own for Sylvester Rivers to justify his own article. With regard to mentions you will see at ] that indepth is the required standard. Sorry but you need to find something more suitable. ] <sup>'']''</sup> 09:35, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
*Thanks, Spartaz, for the help. ] (]) 12:19, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
*Thanks again, Spartaz, for the recent clarification. The afd nomination and negative votes were all placed when the article first posted in early draft form, with almost no book or magazine references, except those showing chart positions and RIAA gold and platinum certifications.

Take the survey ''''''.
Hi. A small comment about your DRV close. You said, ''doesn't appear to be a clear consensus here that the sourced offered guarantee a new version would pass another AFD''. I think you might be holding things to a higher standard than necessary. IMHO, what we're looking for is a reasonable chance to pass AFD, not a guarantee, and then AFD can make the final call. I'm not objecting to your close, just my thoughts. -- ] ] 12:30, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
*i'm not sure we actually mean different things. In essence the close was endorse the prev deletion but anyone can have a go at recreating at risk from an afd. The degree of risk reflected as advice afterwards is perhaps superfluous to that finding. I'm towards the deletionist end of the scale so maybe I read the risk of failing an afd as higher then you did but we would both agree that this is for the afd to determine not drv. does this help clarify what was in my mind? ] <sup>'']''</sup> 12:45, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi Spartaz, you indeffed this user over two weeks ago. They continue to use their Talk page as "editing central" for pages that interest them at Misplaced Pages. I already removed one article-per-Brews from their Talk page and warned them. They haven't been as blatant since, but if it were my call, I'd still revoke talk page access as this is not an appropriate use of a talk page while blocked. However, it's your block, and if it doesn't bother you, I'll let it alone.--] (]) 19:52, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

</div>
Hi, you deleted ] on December 3, 2011, but a lot of time has passed since that time, and the project has gone through many ups and downs. I feel an article chronicling this project, still unrealized, is a legitimate topic for an article. Even from its title it's apparent the article isn't about the film itself, but the adaptation process. Maybe it could be renamed. But I would love to see the article restored, and have the chance to improve it. If the films or films does happen, the article can then be transformed accordingly, and if it never gets off the ground, the article can still function as a historical overview of the efforts, which are interesting to follow with the number of people have have been involved over its history and the variety of proposed ways to bring the book series to the big and/or small screen (as per ]). Thanks. ] (]) 14:28, 3 June 2015 (UTC)

I'm not here to cause trouble, so hear me out. As an admin, and if you want respect from others, it's best in future if you reverse the ways of doing things, as given above. As I have said, taking Rollback away from me bothers me about as much as mud bothers a hippo; I had simply forgotten about the rules. It therefore wasn't "abuse". I get a lot of filthy trolls follow me about, as you saw at ANI, who relish at the chance of coming along, purely to stick the knife in.

What again?

I'm a long term user (first edit 2006) and have been an admin on or off since 2007. When we first started there was so much idealism and we really had no strong policies about inclusion except a desire to have some level of sourcing. As time moved on we became more structured and around the time I became an admin in 2007 we were grappling with the concept of collapsing non notable articles into lists which I was at the forefront of as a regular afd closer and constant presence at DRV. I had a lot of patience once and for that reason was regular DRV closer for a long time after GR Berry left the project. Sadly, my patience was degraded over time and getting involved in the PORNBIO wars pretty much washed out a lot of the good faith that policy and courtesy quite rightly requires us to show. This was again a major change in our approach to content and one of the first SNGs that was deprecated in favour of a more rigid approach to proper sourcing. Since then our content in this area has become much better and we are seeing similar struggles now in the sports arena where SNGs are slowly giving way to GNG level standards.

I have always taken a very legalistic approach to closing discussions that I recognise does not fit well to the current community standard, where low participation level allowing more brigading of votes or allowing more non-policy based arguments. For this reason I'm not really closing discussions but will still happily review old closes. Otherwise I mostly review and nominate unsuitable content as a BLP is a serious matter and needs to be properly sourced.

i am willing to userfy deleted articles for improvement as long as there is a reasonable likelihood that they can be saved. If you are challenging a deletion, do you have three good sources?
