Ways to improve Pathophysiology (journal)

Hi, I'm Kudpung. Jinkinson, thanks for creating Pathophysiology (journal)!

I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. In order to avoid deletion, please provide reliable, independent sources per Misplaced Pages:Notability (academic journals). Thanks.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 00:40, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

Antarctic Bottom Water

So are you going to leave that incorrect information in there? This makes me wonder whether Misplaced Pages is trustworthy at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.102.246.129 (talk) 20:32, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

Scheduled deletion of page "Enlightened Life Fellowship Church"

Hello,

I am attempting to understand how to fix the errors/problems on the page so that a deletion does not occur. I apologize, I have a TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) which causes comprehension of reading instructions to be extremely difficult for me. Our attorneys, the Colorado Department of Higher Education, the Colorado Secretary of State, as well as our local community has aided myself and my co-founder, in person, in forming this new denomination/church. Is there a possibility that someone could call me at (719) 373-2124 to give me a simple overview of what I must do to fix these errors. I would as my co-founder; however, he will be out of town in conference for another few weeks. To be a part of Misplaced Pages is extremely important to us. We have much more to add to our page, as time goes on. I am simply very confused on what I have done that is incorrect and how to rectify the problem.

I did read the comments that were made concerning reasons for deletion, which were emailed to me.

I must state my case and would appreciate this being shared. We are a new Christian Denomination with a a home base in Colorado Springs, CO. We are now training ministers, who are currently ordained within the United Church of Christ and the Metropolitan Community Church, who will be opening 4 new churches in Wyoming, Kansas, Pennsylvania and California. The page is not fluff. It is exact information about who we are. Martin Luther, upon separating and starting his own following was no different than we are now. The amount of google hits that a website has had should not determine the value of information on an institution. The page is NOT promotional in any way shape or form. It is meant to be strictly informative. With new churches opening and our community efforts, we want people to be able to research us in as many ways as possible. We may be considered a local church at this point and time; however, the Metropolitan Community Community church would have been considered local as well and look how that denomination has grown. Within the next 8 months we will be fully registered with the Colorado Department of Higher Education as a Seminary. We are simply waiting for the finalization of the donation of the school property to go through. When it comes to the notability of a Church it is that it serves the greater good. I can supply a plethora references from pastors across the country stating as to how Pastor Charter and I have been doing just that in our decades of ministry. As far as what is relevant for an encyclopedia ..... any all and any information, no matter how mundane it may seem. I my self have researched Misplaced Pages for information I knew I would find no where else. As far as being a Certified Reiki Master, Iridologist, Aromatherapist, etc. bringing notability to the church, for the many spiritual healing and self help awareness beliefs we have these areas bring much notability to the denomination and the church. There are MANY pastors who are Reiki masters, iridologists and such! Just because one has not met one does not mean we do not exist. We not only help people on their spiritual path but we help them learn to help themselves. I ask that you and the board of reviewers, please, make a decision to keep the article; and as we grow and are able to help communities across the county, more information can be added. Yes, we are a new denomination. Yes, every denomination/church starts small. However, our credibility comes from our many years of independent service, our focus on expansion, our desire to help people without a "what's in it for me" attitude. I aske that you make a decision to give us a chance. If your decision is to stay with the deletion of the article, I can do no more than to honor that decision; however, I would hope that you would see even though we are new. We deserve the opportunity to be researched. 

Here are the reasons for deletion:

   Delete per nom. No independent Google hits at all. -- 101.119.15.84 (talk) 06:11, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
   Delete I wouldn't expect much in the way of Google hits for it - it's only been been up and running for about a week. I don't know much about American Christian ministers/pastors or whatever, except for what I see here. I will say I've not come across one before who was a "Certified Reiki Master, Iridologist, Aromatherapist and Master Herbalist" though. I don't think that affects the notability of the Church anyway. Peridon (talk) 15:13, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
   Delete No independent reliable sources, fails WP:GNG. unsigned post by Tom Morris. Peridon (talk) 15:52, 13 November 2013 (UTC)
   Delete - Promotional tone and primary sources, not to mention the second paragraph is complete fluff. Unsurprisingly, Google News and browser searches provided nothing aside from their website. Out of the current references, only one is not primary and that's the Secretary of State ID which basically means nothing to an encyclopedia. Their website says it's based in Colorado Springs so I searched with that but found nothing aside from primary again, a new local church probably wouldn't receive that much attention anyway.

pint

You seem to have reverted my contribution. Why? It was a perfectly valid point and a factual one at that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scarbraa (talk • contribs) 01:23, 17 November 2013 (UTC)

It seems to have been unreferenced. If you are sure that the word pint was invented by Eddie Burns, add a reference to a reliable source that says so when adding it to this website. Additionally, you linked to Eddie Burns, but the only Eddie Burns on this encyclopedia is an Australian rugby league player, which convinced me that your edit was likely made up. If it isn't, I apologize, but it looks like you have vandalized this site a few times before, so it wouldn't be surprising if this were just one more case of your having done so.

Still interested? If so, let me know and I can get it set up this week. Christine (Figureskatingfan) (talk) 21:14, 2 December 2013 (UTC)
Ok, I've created our page: Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Good articles/Recruitment Centre/Recruiter Central/Archives/Jinkinson. One word of warning when working with me: I tend to have a lot going on in my life, which polite people would say makes me a bit scattered at times. (My family, who's not so polite, says, "She's got book smarts, but she's ditzy." How sexist is that! ;) ) Anyway, I suggest that you ping me to make sure that I follow up as needed.

Page patrol

Was just curious as to why you chose not to nominate David_McCrum for speedy deletion, I was going to so nominate but seemed rude to do so without mentioning it. --nonsense ferret 23:15, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Good question. With unsourced BLPs, sometimes it's hard to tell whether it should be speedied or prodded; I tend to prefer prodding since that gives them a chance to find and add sources. Jinkinson talk to me 23:17, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
You got to it first, so I'll respect that choice, but a claim to notability based on five-a-side football in the UK, which is not a professional sport, nor widely reported in news sources, I would have guessed classic A7. --nonsense ferret 23:24, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
Yeah, you're right, it probably should have been speedied. However, ever since people started declining some of my speedy deletion nominations I have preferred to err on the side of caution and prod rather than speedy when dealing with short articles that aren't really, really short, and which sometimes actually make a claim that they are well-known for something. If you want to speedy it, though, go ahead. Jinkinson talk to me 23:31, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Altered speedy deletion rationale: Amanda Reid

Hello Jinkinson. I am just letting you know that I deleted Amanda Reid, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided, which doesn't fit the page in question. Thank you. —Darkwind (talk) 23:35, 18 November 2013 (UTC)

Hi Jinkinson. I think it would be a good idea if you got back up to speed by reading WP:NPP and ]. Attack pages are particularly nasty and must be correctly tagged. G10 also puts a red alert on admins' control panels to ensure that they are deleted very swiftly. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 07:02, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

RfA closure

Hello Jinkinson. I exercised a provision to close your RfA early. A clear consensus emerged that you should gain more experience with additional tenure before seeking the admin bit.

Updating URLs

This is Cory Panshin. Because of a screw-up at the domain host for our website, links using the old ISP-issued address of www.enter.net/~torve no longer work, while those using our own domain name of www.panshin.com function properly. I began going through the numerous entries with references to our website in order to change the non-working links to working links. All of these go to the identical pages at the same service provider as before. I have not added any text to the entries or made any attempts to spam. However, all my changes have been reverted and I have been warned that I may be blocked from editing if I "harm" any more pages. How do I get the links updated without offending your extremely vigilant editors?

Thanks for helping with new page curation. Biographies of living persons that have no reliable sources should be tagged with WP:BLP PROD. Current policy does not allow such articles to remain published without at least one reliable source. Of course, if a source is added, then the BLP PROD should be removed. - MrX 15:31, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Deletion of Richard B. Norgaard.

Hello, I am new to WikiPedia, and I was creating the article, and forgot o add a reference before I saved the first draft. I have now added two sources, and I do not have many sources simply because I do not need many- this page is for my father. Please review again, as I do not want to have the page deleted.

Thank you, Matt Norgaard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mattnorgaard (talk • contribs) 21:16, 22 November 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately, not just anyone gets to have a Misplaced Pages page--your father's page will only remain here if you can add references to independent reliable sources--being his son, you are not an independent source. It looks like your father is fairly well-known, though, so there should be some sources you can add which would justify the removal of the PROD tag, such as this link.

Deletion sorting

Hi Jinkinson, thanks for contributions to deletion sorting. However I noticed you delsorted this deletion discussion under People. Where a person is eligible to be listed under Businesspeople, Actor etc. it's best to list them there, rather than under People as it just swamps that generic People delsort. For example a Painter would be listed under People & Visual arts whereas a Track & Field athlete would be listed under Sportspeople. A list of delsorts, alternative to people can be found here.

A1

Hey, Jinkinson, I've just declined an A1 tag you placed on an article. A1 is only for articles that have so little content that it is impossible to tell what the article is actually about, but this article (Church of God Rayos de Esperanza (Harrisonburg, Virginia, Pastor: Angel Echegoyen - Spanish Language)) is pretty clear about what its subject is. Also, in passing, it's recommended to give articles time before placing A1 or A3 (no content) tags on them, in case the author is still working on them; 10-15 minutes is generally the recommended minimum. As far as this article goes, it certainly doesn't seem to be notable at all, but as it doesn't fit any CSD criteria, it's probably best to use other means, like PROD or AFD.

After a certain point someone needs to step in and stop people from adding needless graphic content to pages, even if others agree. Letting the article's state be dictated by whoever spends the most time arguing just isn't a viable path. 70.112.2.185 (talk) 00:40, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

Promotional tone and citation

You said it is a promotional tone. Would help me in this regard? How not to make it promotional especially if it is an introduction about something?

You have asked about citation that I will work on as long as the article does not go into delete section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quwatkhan (talk • contribs) 06:28, 7 December 2013 (UTC)

What the article needs are reliable sources independent of the subject, so that rules out The Dardistan Times' Facebook and Twitter pages, for example. By "promotional tone" I am referring to the use of peacock terms such as "hard-hitting"; Misplaced Pages articles should not be written like an advertisement. Additionally, there are problems with, for example, the UNHCR source, in which the Times is mentioned, but it is not the subject of the UNHCR article. Read WP:WEBCRIT for more information.

"Something sweet artisan cafe's" article

Hello Jinkinson.Could you help me please to clarify where the issues are in the article ? (if you have the time at the moment that is) Thanks Sugarbasin (talk) 00:20, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Sure. Take the sentence "Founded by three brothers with a passion of doing something different in the credit boom." This suggests that you may have a connection with this company and/or its founders, as it is not sourced. Which brings me to the need for more reliable sources--the article currently has only one, and much of it seems to be original research, which Misplaced Pages generally frowns upon. In retrospect, it's not that promotional, but it could do without sentences like the one I quoted above. Jinkinson talk to me 00:26, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Ok well, i just made a few edits and changed the sentence you highlighted. would you mind checking it again to see if the changes are appropriate? Sugarbasin (talk) 00:30, 8 December 2013 (UTC) maybe remove the word >different< from the sentence also? Sugarbasin (talk) 00:32, 8 December 2013 (UTC)

Hey Jinkinson. I just wanted to let you know that when you come upon an editor like Mormonpride333 posting blatant racist hate speech, you can report immediately to WP:AIV. Misplaced Pages is not a bureaucracy.

Category:Autism journals

Hi, There are two issues with this cat you just created. The first one is technical: it is a subcat of Category:Psychiatry journals, so if a journal is added to "autism journals", it should be removed from "psychiatry journals". The second point is more fundamental. I'm not sure it is a good idea to have a category for journals on a single disease, because it gives the wrong impression, namely that these are the only journals publishing on autism. Almost all (if not all) journal in "psychiatry journals" will regularly publish research related to ASD. Obviously, you cannot categorize any journal that has ever published something on autism in "autism journals". For one thing, that would include all "psychiatry journals", and probably a good amount of "neuroscience journals", "neurology journals", and "pediatrics journals", too. Have a look at Category:Medical journals and you'll see that they are all named after areas of specialization, not specific disorders. In addition, I personally think that "autism" is actually a collection of disorders that look similar, but have different causes. Should that ever be proven, then we'd have to re-categorize everything again (but I admit that the latter issue is only very minor). Let me know what you think. --Randykitty (talk) 16:05, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

This first point is a good one. I have removed it from the category psychiatry journals. As for the second point, I suppose that it is true that we see articles in journals like Nature that have to do with autism even though such journals do not publish exclusively in this area, but maybe a new name for my category, like "child psychiatry journals", would be more appropriate. Perhaps a thread should be started at WP:CFD. Jinkinson talk to me 16:13, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Removing the category "psychiatry journals" is not a good idea at all. You cannot have a "standalone" category, it has to be integrated into the category tree. So if "autism journals" is going to stay, it must be in "psychiatry journals" (and the individual entries removed from that cat). Making a cat "child psychiatry" would make more sense in the current framework of journal cats, but that would add just 4 more journals. The psychiatry journal cat has only 81 entries, so I don't really see the need to split off more subcats. --Randykitty (talk) 16:47, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Alright, you have convinced me that this category should not exist. It is now empty and I have tagged it for speedy deletion. Jinkinson talk to me 16:54, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Great, thanks! --Randykitty (talk) 17:00, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Do I have to add something

Hi Jinkinson, thank you for editing my new page. I'm new on wikipedia and I'm wondering about the text: "This article relies on references to primary sources. Please add references to secondary or tertiary sources. (December 2013)". The source is from 1go1.net and from the German version https://de.wikipedia.org/Marc_Lee . Do I have to add something? Would it help, if I ad links to the exhibition spaces, that the reader could see the artist name on this external page? Please also consider the mentioned books on the bottom of the page https://en.wikipedia.org/Marc_Lee . Best, monika

What I mean by primary sources is that several of the handful of links in the external links section are to Lee's own website, 1go1.net. It would help if you added links/references that weren't created by Lee himself. Other than that, thanks for translating the article into English.

MEDRS

Hi. Could you please read over WP:MEDRS and make sure that you follow its guidelines when citing medical claims? In general, you should not be citing primary research articles. There are also discussions at WT:MED and WP:FTN over the appropriateness of your last DYK the hook for the last DYK article you worked on. Thanks, Sunrise (talk) 16:35, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Congratulations, you're the millionth person to tell me about MEDRS. I know about MEDRS very well, and I have tried to abide by it, but evidently I have not been trying hard enough. Anyway, I replaced one of the primary sources in Animal models of autism but I suspect you have an issue with the inclusion of the Hornig study, given that it is a primary source. However, I think it should stay provided that we say that it is contradicted by the views of every major scientific body on the planet, so we don't give undue weight to the discredited notion of a thimerosal-autism link. Also, I intend to add a reference to a secondary source to the Animal models page section about the Hornig study. BTW, I did not nominate it as a DYK, and had I done so I wouldn't have chosen to mention the Hornig study in the hook given the kerfuffle I knew it would cause. Jinkinson talk to me What did he do now? 20:23, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
Oh yeah, and as for my addition of primary sources on Thimerosal controversy, I am only doing what previous editors have done on that page, namely find epidemiological studies that contradict a link between thimerosal and autism and add mention of them one by one in the "population studies" section. I notice that you have removed the Deth study, the Hornig study, the Miles study and the Tozzi study. I can understand the removal of the first two, given that in vitro and animal studies are advised against in WP:MEDRS, but the last two should probably stay there, as they support the consensus view that thimerosal doesn't cause autism. If you're removing Tozzi and Miles, why not Hviid, Thompson, and Stehr-Green? Jinkinson talk to me What did he do now? 20:35, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
Thanks for the reply! I haven't worked with DYK before, so since you didn't nominate the article, I have struck and reworded my comments above and at FTN. Let me know if there's anywhere else I should do that. In the meantime, I've figured out who actually made the nomination and I will go talk to them instead. :-)
In response to your questions, I don't think whether the sources support the scientific consensus is an important issue in this case (the reason we have to check this in the first place is that due weight is determined using the secondary sources, which tell us what the consensus is). Perhaps my "fails MEDRS" comment in the edit summary was too strong (my personal standards are somewhat higher than MEDRS; maybe I'm misunderstanding part of the guideline?) - but the article already has plenty of primary studies with N in the tens of thousands or higher, so I don't see why we need these new ones with low N. For the examples you mention: I identified the sources from the history as those which had been recently added, so I didn't check the article in detail. Stehr-Green appears to be secondary (they did not collect the data they analyzed), whereas Hviid and Thompson appear to be primary. I would call Hviid a useful source for the article due to the massive N, but I would remove Thompson. I will hold off while I start a new talk page section.

Declined article creation Boon Tuan Boon-Itt

Hi Jinkinson, You decline the creation of my article "Boon Tuan Boon-Itt" as you say he is a non-notable person. He may be insignificant in the West, but he is notable in Thai church history at the first Thai person to start a Thai Protestant church (which I have now added to the article). He is known here in Thailand, even if he is not in the West. Thai church history is a very under-developed academic discipline, partly because of the small number of Christians in Thailand and the small number of foreign scholars who can read and write the Thai language. But I am trying to remedy that :-)

The reason why we don't yet have any well-known English language publishers with books about him. But the "Historical Sketch of Protestant Missions" listed in the References is published by White Lotus, a well-known publisher of English-language books about history and culture in Southeast Asia. But Southeast Asian history is not very well known, which is why you may not have heard of them.

Can you reconsider your decline?

Proposed deletion of Autism Research and Treatment

The article Autism Research and Treatment has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Not notable yet. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Misplaced Pages are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Your GA nomination of Autism omnibus trial

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Autism omnibus trial you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. GregJackP Boomer! 07:30, 5 January 2014 (UTC)

schools in New Delhi

Hello Jinkinson,

I was trying to create a category by the above name. Since categories such as schools in east delhi and west delhi already exist, I realized that a number of schools listed on the schools in delhi belong in the south delhi sub category. Blessinvarkey (talk) 17:51, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Oh, okay. In that case, you should search for "Category:Schools in South Delhi" and create that page instead of the Schools in South Delhi one. This is how you create categories. Jinkinson talk to me 17:53, 7 January 2014 (UTC)

Rajeev satav

I removed your CSD A7 tag because I believe the statement that the subject is the president of the Indian Youth Congress is a credible claim to notability. However, the article Rajiv Satav already exists and seems to be about the same subject, so I replaced it with an A10 tag. XXX antiuser 01:24, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Proposed Deletion of the article "2013-2014 BC calc w/Mr. Leddy

Please do delete the article I created "2013-2014 BC calc w/Mr. Leddy". I only created the article to "test the waters" of Misplaced Pages. Sorry for any inconvenience. MattAlvey50 (talk) 17:51, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

As it states at the top of this page, I am not an admin and therefore can't delete anything. If you want it deleted, replace its contents with the following template: {{db-g7}} Also, if you want to test Misplaced Pages, go to WP:SANDBOX. Jinkinson talk to me 18:13, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Jan C. Childress

Hi Jinkison! I just received an alert on my page from November 29, 2013, that my article on Jan C. Childres was proposed for deletion due to having no references. There are several references on the page, so I just wanted to make sure that the page would remain. Please confirm. Thanks Kershawdraw (talk) 22:45, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Yes, it looks like the article, since it now has 5 references, will not be eligible for deletion. However, it could use some more independent, reliable sources, as opposed to, for example, Photobucket and a blog (i.e. references 3 and 4). Jinkinson talk to me 00:04, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Claude Sabbah

You wrote me concerning Claude Sabbah's page I've created. The main pages are in french and german Misplaced Pages, and I wrote a little sentence to create the page in the english version. I'm french and my english is not so good, I will try to make a good page, but I really hope that other people (who have a better english) will help me to translate the information. Thank you. Maitreidmry (talk) 01:53, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

 Done Please add some sources to the article, as it is a BLP and therefore needs sources or else it will be deleted. Jinkinson talk to me 02:05, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

I've added books he has wrote, which is the most important source of his work. However, I have a problem with the ISBN, they don't appear correctly. Maitreidmry (talk) 02:20, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Autism omnibus trial

The article Autism omnibus trial you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . It is possible for the article to meet the good article criteria, but there are some major changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within 30 days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Autism omnibus trial for things which need to be addressed. GregJackP Boomer! 11:22 am, Today (UTC−6)

Jimbo semi-retired?

I have undone that edit to User:Jimbo Wales. I find that a bold conclusion that he is '(semi-)retired', he may just not have much time, be on holiday, do his work elsewhere on Misplaced Pages (other wikis, or even behind the scenes). I don't even think that not editing outside of his user-talk (and in the last 100 edits there are 4 mainspace edits, and edits to talkpages) make someone (semi-)retired either. Thanks! --Dirk Beetstra 19:28, 11 January 2014 (UTC)


No7t funny. Don't do that again. --Jimbo Wales (talk) 09:19, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Sorry Jimbo. Yeah, this definitely wasn't my proudest moment on this site. I'll try to stay out of other people's userspace from now on. Jinkinson talk to me 13:25, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

Barbara Rosenblat

I got a message from you saying I didn't have any references in the article I started for Barbara Rosenblat. I think you reviewed it while I was still figuring out how to add links. I have added a number of links to Misplaced Pages pages that include her. I added her IMDB page and some other outside references - hopefully that helps? Scowls (talk) 02:21, 13 January 2014 (UTC) 

 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Scowls (talk • contribs) 23:28, 12 January 2014 (UTC)
Yes, this definitely helps, particularly the recordedbooks.com link. However, IMDB is not particularly highly regarded as a reliable source, since its content is contributed by users in much the same way as Misplaced Pages's content is. See Misplaced Pages:External_links/Perennial_websites#IMDb. Also, her official website is a primary source, and as such is not ideal for articles about living people (see WP:BLPPRIMARY). Jinkinson talk to me 02:34, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

They still say there are no references and are threatening to delete the page. Do you have any idea what kind of sources they are willing to see as reliable? I added a NY Times article - if that's not considered a reference or a reliable source then I don't know what is. 108.27.24.78 (talk) 12:04, 13 January 2014 (UTC) Never mind - looks like it passed muster - thanks for your assistance! 108.27.24.78 (talk) 18:33, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

European company lawyers association

The article is created by blocked user ECLAcontact and account creation by that user has been blocked, I've tagged this article for speedy deletion. Nechlison (talk) 17:35, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Good catch. I can't help but wonder why we even need that criterion, since if they were blocked, wouldn't they be prevented from editing Misplaced Pages and thus from creating new pages? Ah well, I'm sure I'm just missing some technical aspect of blocking here. Jinkinson talk to me 05:00, 14 January 2014 (UTC)

CoinMKT

Hey Jinkinson! I've been seeing a lot of cryptocurrency-related articles on Misplaced Pages. According to Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Internet their are over 5 cryptocurrency-related articles up for deletion, I'm not sure if this is a problem, but since many lack notability it's becoming a problem.
