This user is busy gigging a lot and may not respond swiftly to queries.

If you have a question about why I declined a submission of your article at Misplaced Pages:Articles for Creation, check first that your article has significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Click here for a fuller explanation. You might want to ask the question at the Articles for Creation Help Desk as there are more people looking there.

If you leave a message on this talk page, I'll respond here. You may want to watch this page to catch the response. Click here for a tutorial in watching pages. Please avoid using talkback messages if you can - if I've messaged you recently I'll either be watching your page or otherwise keeping an eye on it.

DYK for Dougal Butler

On 28 August 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Dougal Butler, which you created or substantially expanded. The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Dougal Butler. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Urgent: problem with Dougal Butler DYK currently on Main Page

Please urgently visit the thread at BLPN. Thank you. --Dweller (talk) 08:23, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

I have responded and backed up my claims with additional sources. Ritchie333 08:41, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

Dan Roberts (singer)

I don't think a redirect would be called for, since he's not even mentioned anywhere on Garth's page, and only did one work for him. That would be like redirecting "Bryan Kennedy" to Garth's page — sure, Bryan also co-wrote The Beaches of Cheyenne, but it was Bryan's only time working with Garth, and the two acts are not otherwise related.

But remember AfD is not cleanup - just because it doesn't appear in Brook's page right now, doesn't mean it can't in the future - the collaborations are verifiable so there's potential to expand the article and explain his songwriting partners while keeping within our policies. Brook's article is only at B-class, which means nobody's formally assessed to be complete in scope. Ritchie333 09:31, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Hammond organ players, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rainbow (band) (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Periodontal Prosthesis

Just trying to figure out how the periodontal prosthesis article already exits. When I go to Prosthodontics I don't see anything but when I enter in the Periodontal Prosthesis it comes up under Prosthodontics but with no information, just the name. So no real article on the subject as far as I am concerned. I am not sure why it is there or how I can edit and change it. Perhaps you can help me with this.

• It is there, but it's a redirect. We create redirects when you want one page to have two search terms. For example, Heart attack is a redirect to Myocardial infarction. If you search for Periodontal Prosthesis and go to Prosthodontics, you'll see a small message saying "(from Redirected from Periodontal Prosthesis)". Click on the link, and it will take you to the definition of the redirect here.

Having said all of that, I don't actually understand why the redirect was created to here. I think a better redirect is Periodontal disease#Treatment. I've added one sentence from your submission into there and cited the first reference to it. That might give you some idea of how to fill in the rest of the section. One thing I would caution you about is refrain from mentioning Dr. Morton Amsterdam - as a reader, I'm interesting in what the technique is and how it improves teeth. It's not so important who mentioned it, unless that person happens to be extremely notable and widely respected in the field (which I don't believe to be the case).

Dear Ritchie333.

I would like to let you know that I have created seven "Wiki" pages before and after your loverly message that I would like to reply be saying Did you know that I created the pages Talk Dirty (John Entwistle song), Waspman, Let's See Action, Postcard (The Who song), The Quiet One (The Who song) Dangerous (The Who song) and It's Your Turn as well as many edits on John Entwistle those of which you had commented on about The Ox "playing Nazis as a kid" is a quote and I'm afraid I can't change his words so I had to put the Youtube Reference on so that you did not think i was either a vandal or a mad nazi who wants to spread the word I am a simple Who Fanatic.

Kind Regards

Jay Bowden.

I would like to hear what you have to say (Again) —Preceding undated comment added 19:23, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

• Hi, Jay. Well, the good news is that your work's getting better. I don't think you're a vandal, just someone who's a bit unfamiliar with how Misplaced Pages works. I've seen teenage editors get blocked for seemingly trivial things, simply because they don't know how to talk themselves out of the situation, and I didn't want to see it happen with you as well. A number of your articles have been deleted, but not all have, and indeed one or two I've defended. Success Story (song) is still up for AfD - see here, and I note I'm the only editor championing for a straight "keep" of the article.

As for your new articles, Let's See Action definitely passes WP:NSONG by being a chart hit, and is almost a good candidate for Did you know? on the front page. All it needs is better sourcing, as The Hypertext Who is a self published source and, while, respectable, doesn't really come up to the quality of books that have been commercially published. I appreciate if you're young you can't just nip onto Amazon and buy them on a whim, but perhaps your local library can lend you copies. Dave Marsh's book, while old, is still my favourite book about the band. If I get time, I'll fix that up and DYK nominate it myself. You'll then start to see positive messages appear on your talk page.

The problem with Entwistle and "playing at Nazi's" quote isn't that specific fact, it's that you've cited to a YouTube video which is a copyright violation. To cut a long story short, YouTube is generally unacceptable as a source. I know it kind of goes against common sense, but Misplaced Pages is a free encyclopedia and we can't be seen to endorse copyright infringement. If the quote is memorable, another source will have it. For what it's worth, I'd have said the same for Entwistle helping Keith Moon blow up toilets, taking a shotgun to his record collection or the specific circumstances surrounding his death.

I'd love to see John Entwistle and The Who at good article status, and with a little more grounding in Misplaced Pages policies, you've got the enthusiasm and determination to do it. I appreciate policies take a while to wrap your head around, but once you're there, you can do good things for the place. Ritchie333 09:30, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
