Hi Hasteur, I've noticed recently that when HasteurBot places a G13 notification on a user's talk page, not only is it a minor edit but also the user is not pinged. This seems a bit shady to me, since the user would be unaware of the notification unless they are actively patrolling their own talk page. I don't know if all bot edits are minor by default, but maybe adding a ping to the notification would help out. Cheers, ] (]) 22:05, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

== Thoughts regarding CSD G13 ==

*A great loss, RIP. He was also responsible for much of the code of the ] tool. I hope someone will take over that maintenance task too. ] (]) 07:53, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
Please note that, regardless of the namespace, I make G13 nominations only for the most hopeless pages that have zero chance of ever becoming articles. In many cases, these pages are not drafts at all, just putrid nonsense. These pages also do not carry the AFC templates, which is the reason they lie undiscovered and untouched for periods sometimes as long as three years. In my view, pages that have been reviewed by a reviewer have no reason to be speedily deleted, provided that it does not consist of any objectionable content which would qualify it for deletion under any of the CSD G criteria. I disagree with the concept of CSD G13. We don't need a criterion to speedy delete pages simply beacuse they have not been edited for some period of time. Defending such deletions using the arguement that WP is not a web host for indefinite hosting of content that could possibly be unfit for the encyclopedia is okay, but there should be a delay system of at least four days so that these can be examined. What we really need is a criterion to dispose off junk that were never intended as drafts, like ]. Drafts with which the only problem is that they are not being improved should be handled through PROD or XfD processes, or through the CSD process itself, but with a delay system, as is currently the case with C1 deletioms (4 days delay period), and with T3, F4 and F6 deletions (7 days delay period). ] (]) 19:41, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
*:Terrible - and so young. At least we know - we must have lost other editors to Covid that we'll never know about. ] ] 09:28, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
:{{U|103.6.158.193}} G13 is written for a very narrow case where pages are not making any improvement in moving to being accepted. The vitaL link you presented could be eligible under G13 on July 8th, however because the way it reads, there's a case for CSD:G11 (Advertising) and CSD:G2 (Test page) currently. CSD:G13 isn't all that "fast" it's more an "You knew the rules for this process and now that you haven't improved the page (and been warned about the lack of improvements) it's now going to be deleted". Furthermore, if you don't think something belongs and it's not eligible under the G series of speedies, you can always nominate for MFD. ] (]) 19:51, 15 June 2015 (UTC)
*What horrible news. I always got along well with Hasteur, even when we didn't agree on things. He was a good person. Fuck this virus. ] <sub>]</sub> 11:32, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
::That page does not qualify G11 since it isn't advertising (although if anyone does nominate it for G11, the reviewing admin may still go ahead with the deletion). Neither is it a test page since it is obviously not intended for testing purpose. It is an "about me" description of a 15-year old teen, which is exactly what I mean by ''unencyclopedic''! It's also worth pointing out that page ''is'' eligible for G13 deletion at present since the last non-bot edit was way back in October 2013. What you always fail to understand is that bot edits do not affect G13 eligibility. ] is very clear on this: {{Tq|Rejected or unsubmitted Articles for creation pages that have not been edited in over six months ''(excluding bot edits)''.}} (emphasis not mine). ] (]) 07:09, 16 June 2015 (UTC)
*Such terrible news!, My sincere condolences to friends and family, RIP Hasteur. –]<sup>]</sup> 11:36, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
::Coming back to the other part of your reply, the reason I disagree with CSD G13 is that I don't think deleting content that ''could'' be salvagable simply because they have not been edited in a particular period of time, is going to do The Project any good. The existence of these drafts does not cause any harm. Deleting might even be harmful to the project since a good number of salvagable drafts unquestionably do get deleted, since the ] reviewers won't be having the time to review each one of the hundreds of drafts that get nominated. See also ] on this subject. You say that I am trying to "lob every page that lives in Draft namespace under the G13 criteria", even though it is yourself who's doing that. Your bot has so shamelessly, if I may say, nominated thousands of pages for ''speedy'' deletion without once going through them, of course. The problem with G13 lies in the fact that any admin has the full rights to delete a draft even if its way to becoming an article is a 30-second Google search away. Of course, this is true, since G13 is a ''speedy'' criterion. And there are many admins who do carelessly make such deletions. Giving a 30-day leeway period to the page creator is rarely ever useful since it the original creator of a draft may just never return to it. In most cases, these drafts are created by casual users who may never be editing again after the initial efforts. ] (]) 19:57, 16 June 2015 (UTC)

#I see that the HasteurBot does not keep a CSD log. It would be useful if it has a CSD log as it would help in reviewing the bot's nominations more easily than scouring through the contribs for user talk page notifications. Looking at the number of blue links vs red links would be useful.

I think that a lesson we have learned about the DRN clerk bot is that if mediation is requested for an article, and it is declined, and it is then requested again, the duplication causes the bot to get stuck. My advice would be to have the bot check for an old mediation request with the same name. If it finds one, it can append 2 to it, as "Eurofighter Typhoon 2". That is a suggestion. ] (]) 21:59, 18 June 2015 (UTC)

== Good faith mistake on ANI ==

Hey, I reverted your edit . The proposal in question was for a mutual TBAN between me and another user, so inserting my name and not the other into the section title inadvertently biased it away from the original intent. I initially corrected it to a more accurate disambiguator, but since you disambiguated the RefHistory one as well, and since the discussion of me and the other user will likely soon be closed and archived, I figured it better to leave it the way it has been for most of the past two weeks.

Just leaving this message here so you know there were no hard feelings. I was initially very disturbed to see my name added to the section title, but when I found the reason I realized it was just a mistake. No harm no foul.

Cheers, and happy editing!

== Answer to message regarding to Brianne Siddall ==

Hi, Hasteur. I hope this is the correct way to get in touch with you. I received a message from you. Yet, I couldn't find a button to answer it, only this page here. this is in regard to your message to me / comment about https://en.wikipedia.org/Draft:Brianne_Siddall and I know that I'm just a noob at this, but I really need your help with this, even if you have to work on The references just a bit, cause Ms. Siddall is an important Voice actress to all Otaku fans everywhere, and she must be remembered for all time, cause she underwent surgery as well: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2015-03-26/digimon-.hack-sign-voice-actress-brianne-brozey-underwent-5-hour-surgery-after-accident/.86373 so in a way, she has done a lot of work that involves voice acting, and the character which are shown in anime series or links that were added to the page. Please let me know what else you need to legitimize this account and bear with me - I'm just a wikipedia editor in training and don't know much about the technical ways of communicating in here, also I'm don't usually login to wikipedia on a regular basis. However, if you write to my site again, I should be able to see it sooner or later. Thank you. :)
P.S. i also just send a request for an undeletion as i intend to work on this as well: https://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Requests_for_undeletion#Draft:Brianne_Siddall so i expect for you to do the same, ok. ] (]) 05:24, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

*Hey Hasteur, I've started up a discussion at ] about this. Basically, what we have here is an American voice actress that has performed major roles in multiple notable series and you can see some of these brought up at the draft talk page and at ], where I listed 8 instances where she's portrayed a major character (one of the characters was even in 3 games and 1 TV series). VAs rarely get coverage for their roles so notability for them almost always has to be judged on how major their roles were and how notable the series themselves are. IE, reviews and coverage for the series will rarely call out a specific VA by name but will review the series/game/etc as a whole. IMO Siddall is notable for these roles, so notability isn't an issue here, rather it's more of a BLP one. However this can be easily rectified by us monitoring the page and ensuring that any biographical data is backed up with a reliable source of some kind, even if it's a routine database listing like Anime News Network, and given the amount of work Siddall has done in her field I think that the coverage in databases and primary sources trumps the lack of secondary sourcing that focuses specifically on Siddall. ]] 09:29, 16 October 2015 (UTC)

== Yuri Lowenthal ==

Hi Hasteur, re: your maintenance template addition at ], I wanted to point out that I raised a discussion about the scope of the article a while back ]. Clearly the filmography needs to be bounced out into a new article, but even then I'm a little unclear on what the scope of the ''filmography'' should be. ''Every'' thing the guy has done? If he lives for another 40 years that could be tens of thousands of credits. Are we IMDb? I raised the issue again at ] but I don't think anyone felt that listing ''every'' role the actor has performed was much of a problem. I dunno. ] (]) 21:55, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
:{{U|Cyphoidbomb}} I don't know the right answer on how to split the article, I was mainly looking at the page in the context of ] (as evidenced in the previous section) where a argument was advanced that because Yuri had such a long credits dump, Brianne deserves to be in mainspace with a large credits dump. I was going about it in the context of "We should remove these large credits dumps because we are not IMDB/AnimeDB/etc". Hope this helps with understanding my intention. ] (]) 23:27, 17 October 2015 (UTC)
::Perhaps creating a seperate "list-article" of roles and related achievements would help to solve this? Mention only "award-winning"/"major production" on the main article? Just my suggestion, though I haven't looked too deeply into the article. Cheers, ] (]) 00:03, 18 October 2015 (UTC)

As evidenced by the many people who are failing at the talk page and user page, I have undone the redirect of the talk page, but also placed the CBan and Sockmaster templates on the talk page so it's clear to any visiting users that the user isn't going to be able to respond. ] (]) 12:18, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

::Well, I don't think a bot should ever blindly overwrite a redirect, even an odd one - it should report that it encountered something weird and let a human decide. But that's a minor thing. But yes, about the notices - I can't help thinking, however, that the use case you described would be better served by a templated message that doesn't seem to be addressing a user who can't respond to it. Likewise, I don't think that being banned disables email notifications, so it's quite possible that every time your bot leaves one of these messages on the talk page of a banned user, they get an email about it. In the case of someone who's been a serious nuisance to the project, as in the prior owner of this particular talk page, we should aim not to do anything that might encourage them to circumvent their ban. I think a separate location for announcing orphaned drafts would be a better idea. Best, &nbsp;— ] <span style="color:#900">•</span> ] 10:25, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

== Re:Collapse parameters ==

I changed the parameters on the collapses you put on ANI. I'm not sure if it violated a guideline somewhere or not, but it seems kinda pointless to collapse entire sections including their titles. You were of course right in collapsing in the first place (thank you!) but for the archives' sake I uncollapsed the section titles.

However, I '''''REALLY''''' want to uncollapse the lolcat picture, too. It was just so hilarious and cute. Would you mind if I did? (Or, rather, if you approve of uncollapsing it, would you mind doing it yourself? I'm trying to keep ANI posts to a minimum at the moment, for obvious reasons, and I can't imagine anyone opposing uncollapsing the cat.)

== Consensus regarding UFC articles ==

Hi, I noticed your comments on the dispute resolution noticeboard. You didn't provide any links to the consensus you mention, but you say that there were many discussions so it is probably not easy to link to. I am not really involved in the ] dispute either, but I described my edit history and opinion on the topic. <br>
To be honest, I can't understand why there are all these minute details about the background (who was supposed to fight but pulled out, who was selected to replace them but got injured, etc.), but when you get to the section containing the actual results, it looks like an afterthought when presented in the table format. To someone who is new to editing the topic, the opposition to expanding upon the course of events makes it look like people don't really care for what happened. Of course I don't believe that is actually the case, but it seems like a strange approach. <br>
I don't plan on participating further than my statement at the noticeboard, but for the sake of my curiosity could you give me an insight into why there is such opposition to describing the fights? Thanks, ] (]) 03:05, 17 November 2015 (UTC)

== With reference to the submitted article 'Adi Dharam' ==

Hi,

I am writing with reference to an article submitted by me titled 'Adi Dharam'(https://en.wikipedia.org/Draft:Adi_Dharam). You had declined accepting the request citing that the article is already on wikipedia and had asked to wrtie back if the article mentioned by you was different from the article submitted by me. This was perhaps due to an already present article named 'Adi Dharm' (https://en.wikipedia.org/Adi_Dharm). Though 'Adi Dharam' and 'Adi Dharm' have very similar names, the subject matter of these articles are very different from each other. The earlier one refers to the umbrella term used for the religion of the Indigenous Peoples in India while the later one refers to the religion of the Adi Bramho Samaj, these two societies are very different from each other and also are the content of these two articles. I request you to kindly go through both the articles, and the references and citations once again to clearly get the difference between them.

Looking forward to hearing from you

articles for creation

Thank you for quality articles such as F. O.
