Misplaced Pages

Revision as of 06:42, 1 February 2015

I have unreviewed a page you curated

Hi, I'm Vanjagenije. I wanted to let you know that I saw the page you reviewed, Minister of Foreign Affairs (Swaziland), and have un-reviewed it again. If you have any questions, please ask them on my talk page. Thank you. Vanjagenije (talk) 22:16, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks! I'll just add the tags next time.  :) --Eurodyne (talk) 22:17, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Use of rollback

Would you explain your reasons for using rollback (twinkle (TW)) to revert 31 of my good faith edits to try and improve the article about Sean_Paul_Lockhart, --Pennine rambler (talk) 00:19, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

Please, Eurodyne, slow down. Based on this, I don't recommend the use of Twinkle by you and at minimum an edit summary should be provided. I don't want to see you get blocked again.--Jasper Deng (talk) 00:37, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

Sorry about that. Nice catch! --Eurodyne (talk) 01:47, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

Autoblock

{{unblock-auto|Eurodyne|I was blocked for socking on User:Akifumii and on User:Xermano. I am now unblocked here at User:Eurodyne. For some reason, I edited in the morning and then later this night, I can't edit because of an auto-block? Eurodyne (talk) 05:53, 16 October 2014 (UTC)}}

I've checkusered your account, and as of now, there isn't an autoblock. Two of your underlying IP addresses are blocked, but as long as you're logged in, you will be able to edit normally. I suggest you try editing again, and if there is a problem, let us know what message you are seeing. PhilKnight (talk) 06:29, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

@PhilKnight: I was talking with Eurodyne on IRC. It seems he was auto-blocked (# 5220663), but shortly after it seemed to have expired. He did confirm that he's able to edit now. Mike V • Talk 06:48, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Mike. PhilKnight (talk) 06:57, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks guys! Your help is appreciated! Eurodyne (talk) 14:57, 16 October 2014 (UTC)

Hello

I noticed you thanked me for one of my edits, and then realized you were new here. I use huggle/rollback and twinkle to counter vandalism and test edits. That's what I was doing when you thanked me.

If you still "feel new", you can use {{this is a new user}} at the top of this talk page, but you don't have to. Hopefully, you've discovered the teahouse, where you can ask people-friendly Wikipedians questions. :-) --I dream of horses @ 03:45, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Actually, it's just a habit I have if someone beats me to an edit I want to make. No I am not new. I actually had an account here for a few months and then I was blocked for a good month and a half. This is my new account with a clean fresh start (after a block here). If you need me, I am more active on the Simple English Misplaced Pages. Cheers and nice meeting you! Eurodyne (talk) 04:25, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Actually, you were blocked indefinitely, not for a month and a half. That account is still blocked. --I dream of horses @ 04:40, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Ah, I've read your block log and the link contained within it. So this is a clean start for you. Good luck. --I dream of horses If you reply here, please leave me a {{Talkback}} message on my talk page. @ 04:43, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Yeah thanks! The old account is blocked but I'm unblocked here! Thanks! Cheers! Eurodyne (talk) 04:51, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion for Dr. Harbeen Arora's Misplaced Pages Article

Hi Eurodyne,

I explained reason why we should keep Dr. Harbeen Arora's Misplaced Pages Article on "Content This Speedy Deletion" section.

I request you to kindly review it again as Dr. Harbeen Arora has contributed a lot towards women empowerment & education.

The article has already been deleted. See Misplaced Pages:Notability (people) for more information. Cheers! Eurodyne (talk) 14:58, 14 November 2014 (UTC)

Seeking for some more time

Hy Eurodyne. Please do not delet my article. Yes I can see my mistake, but i need more time. Please give me sometime to work on it please.

Tagging articles for speedy deletion for not being in English

Hi Eurodyne. I noticed that you placed a speedy delete tag on Instituto Gerir requesting that it be deleted for being in the wrong language. An article being in a non-English language alone is not one of the specific criteria for speedy deletion. If you find a page that isn't English, tag it with {{Not English}} instead.

However, in this case I used Google translate and determined that the article was about an organization that didn't indicate why it was notable. I replaced your speedy deletion tag with an A7 speedy deletion tag instead. I've also reported the user to Usernames for Administrator Attention for having a promotional username.

Thank you! Seahorseruler 06:07, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

Sure. Thanks for your help! Eurodyne (talk) 06:32, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

reason for content removal "decreased suicide risk"

Removed the content regarding decreased suicide risk because the section was read like a pharmaceutical company advertisement and was inappropriately in the wiki article regarding increased risk NOT decreased risk. Perhaps a new article should be started for this PHARMA advertisement? Maybe we have enough on television? In fact the information cited in the content I removed was from an article sponsored and with data SUPPLIED by the pharmaceutical industry. Here is the footnote from the very article the section cited and used for its sole content.

"Additional Contributions: Data were supplied by the National Institute of Mental Health (Treatment for Adolescents With Depression Study), Wyeth, and Eli Lilly and Co.

Financial Disclosure: Dr Gibbons has served as an expert witness for . . ."Wyeth, and Pfizer Pharmaceuticals in cases related to antidepressants and anticonvulsants and suicide. Dr Brown directed a suicide prevention program at the University of South Florida that received funding from JDS Pharmaceuticals. Dr Mann has received research support from GlaxoSmithKline and Novartis"

Hi there. If you want to remove that much content, leave an edit summary. Cheers! Eurodyne (talk) 17:58, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

Farm Team: Professional Wrestling Heading

Hello,

I have twice removed the Professional Wrestling section from the Farm Team page. The first time, I was questioned and provided a response, but I was never responded to, nor was any further action taken. This time, I see that you reverted my change by saying that I provided no reason for change. Please allow me to explain...

The definition for a farm team, directly from the Misplaced Pages entry, is as follows: "In sports, a farm team, farm system, feeder team or nursery club, is generally a team or club whose role is to provide experience and training for young players, with an agreement that any successful players can move on to a higher level at a given point."

Professional wrestling is not a sport. These organizations that are training professional wrestlers are are better likened to professional wrestling schools or academies than they are to farm teams. Professional wrestlers are not players, either. They are actors. Professional wrestling is a scripted television show, not a competition. If an entry for professional wrestling belongs on this page, then an entry for the scripted television program Friends also deserves an entry. Jennifer Aniston acted on four, failed TV shows, while David Schwimmer was a bit player in dozens of productions, before they were both "called up" to the Friends "roster."

As much as fans of professional wrestling would like to consider it sports entertainment, it's not a sport. In fact, in my estimation, it doesn't even qualify as entertainment. Regardless, it certainly has no place on a Farm Team entry on Misplaced Pages. Thank you for your attention in this matter.

Sincerely,

Jeff

Specifically human basic need - about its deletion:

1., The person who has deleted it ignored completely that the hypothesis was presented in 1968 by an academic doctoral thesis that got published the next year by the Academic Press: Personality dynamics and social existence . Bp.: Akadémiai Kiadó , 1969; 231 p. A hypothesis on the specifically human basic need (SHBN) with a structure that is isomorph with a specifically human basic activity: the work as an activity of arranging in a structure ends and means and transfering that structure to various parts of its universe. Garai's publications on "specifically human basic need": http://www.staff.u-szeged.hu/~garai/Strukt.htm#SHBN

2., The Hungarian text of the book got reviewed in English by the longer ever review of the European Journal of Social Psychology: F. Erös: Personality Dynamics and Social Existence, by L. Garai.. 4/3 . pp. 369-379. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ejsp.2420040308/abstract

3., Garai in 1969-1970 was invited by academicians Keldysh (the president of the Soviet Academy of Sciences) and Kedrov to the Institute for History of Natural Sciences and Technology (Moscow) for applying his hypothesis to studying simultaneous scientific discoveries (such as that of Bolyai and Lobachevsky).

4., In 1971 he was invited to the highly prestigious International Congress of the History of Science to present his findings in a keynote speech: "Hypothesis on the Motivation of Scientific Creativity". "Nauka" Publishing House. M., pp. 224-233. (Russian version: "Гипотеза о мотивации научного творчества"; "Nauka" Publishing House. Moscow.

5., The Hungarian Academic Press in 1980 published collected articles applying the SHBN-hypothesis in aesthetics collected stories: "Szabadságszükséglet és esztétikum" mek.oszk.hu/02700/02799/02799.htm.

6., For the 40th annyversary of the first publication of the Garai's hypothesis "Magyar Tudomány" 2008/9 (the theoretical review of the Presidium of Hungarian Academy of Sciences) published a revisiting paper "A specifikusan emberi alapszükséglet" ("Specifically human basic need revisited") http://www.matud.iif.hu/2009/09sze/16.htm

But if you declare that for the Misplaced Pages there exists only what exists in English I shall notice it humbly. Szalagloria (talk) 23:35, 21 November 2014 (UTC)

Suggestions Please

Can you provide information on standards of a dependable sources, criterias for notability of Misplaced Pages policies, and assessment of a close connection to subject. Am referring to article Salvatory L. Mosha. Thank you. tzlogos PM 21:23, 22 November 2014 (UTC).

Family Quick Care Speedy Deletion

Hi Eurodyne,

I'm a student at Illinois State University and am trying to create a page for a class project. My page was tagged for speedy deletion because it isn't clear enough why the information is important to be in an encyclopedia. I was hoping you could help me out with what type of information I can provide on the page in order to not have it deleted?

Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ryno32 (talk • contribs) 15:14, 1 December 2014 (UTC)

Hoyt Wilhelm

I beefed up some of the sections and added subsections to the MLB career portion. I am heading to bed, but I hope to return to it this weekend. To me, the biggest issue is that the 1960s seasons receive very little mention. Baseball-Reference.com or old articles from the Google News Archive may help us to fill in some of those gaps. We should have a little time to beef up the article, as most noms aren't reviewed right away. If it does get reviewed and is not sufficient, we can just fix it and renominate it.

Draft: SAFID

Hi Eurodyne – thanks for reviewing the draft for SAFID, could you tell me where I went wrong exactly so I can edit? I've got three things in mind that May have prompted you to turn it down: 1. the lengthy list of products in the Products section, 2. The projected output of United Iron and Steel's new plant – perhaps that should be left out until it becomes a reality and 3. The award. I can't see much else in there that would be considered not neutral. Some editors might object to language like 'core business' and 'now has markets in', and that can be adjusted very easily, but the facts are that this is a significant operator in the region, in an important industry for that region particularly with the development taking place, that it is involved in a number of big projects, that it mainly makes ducts and that it has developed a specific type of duct. Thanks again for taking a look – if you could give me some pointers on how to improve it, that would be great. HOgilvy (talk) 23:54, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi HOgilvy. Thanks for reaching out to me. Sources 2 and 3 are both interviews with people belonging to SAFID so they aren't independent sources. The first source is a good one and if you have a few more sources like that, the article will clearly be acceptable. Eurodyne (talk) 00:07, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi – thanks for getting back so quick. Understand these are interviews but they're secondary sources with editorial oversight and I've used them to support content that's completely uncontroversial. If someone expresses a point of view in an interview and that's then used as a reference for a sentence that makes it a statement of fact, that's a poor use of that source. We have to be careful with interviews for sure - most notably in a BLP when the interviewee is the article subject - but these are just straightforward facts about the company. Can't there be some flexibility here? Thanks again. HOgilvy (talk) 00:28, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi Eurodyne – would appreciate it if you could get back to me on my reply above. I'd argue these aren't primary or self-published, but secondary sources that are sufficiently reliable for the content they're supporting. As I said, if a point of view was being expressed then that would have no place as a reference for a statement of fact, but that's not the case here. Many thanks.

Re: Reviewing

I could take you on, though to be honest I've reviewed for so long that the way I do it is pretty bare bones since I don't bother with templates or anything extra of that nature. Not sure if that would be an issue for you or not (probably not, since it's just a cosmetic-type issue). If you're up for it then I can at least try to walk you through a review or two, sure. Wizardman 03:25, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

What I'll do is, on the Wilhelm review, I'll break down what needs to be looked over from a GA reviewer's perspective as I progress so that you can follow along. After that if you want to take on a review I can shadow it. Wizardman 13:04, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Wizardman, great! Just keep me updated. Is there anything I have to do now? Eurodyne (talk) 16:16, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Right now nothing yet, unless you want to jump into reviewing an article as I keep an eye on it. I'll ideally get the prose review for Wilhelm done tomorrow so you can see how that's done. Wizardman 02:57, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

• Now that you did your first review, to make sure everything's in order on your reviews, I'd like you to tackle a longer article that's got a bit more detail to it, since the Boat Race articles generally don't have much of anything to correct. Wizardman 15:22, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi There

Thanks for the feedback on the article I submitted on the Canadian record producer musician Greg Kavanagh. I am trying to develop my interest in Canadian music history with a focus on the people behind the artists that Canadians know. Can you help me with improving my article please? Kavanagh was nominated for a Juno (Our Canadian equivalent of a Grammy) 5 times as a artist or a producer and a winner as a member of BKS. I read the guidelines for a notable person in the music and he seems to meet the criteria set forth there.

I cited Allmusic which I understood to be viewed as creditable. Should I have used another source?

Any suggestions would be of great help to me to further my passion for the Canadian recording history

04:44:22, 27 January 2015 review of submission by Spookyrider

• Spookyrider (talk · contribs)
  • Draft:Tex König (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I'm writing to ask if the current 'notability' views can have exceptions. I have read through the guidelines of subject notability as well as the three golden rules, and I can definitely see why you declined my article of Tex Konig; the only sources I have are mainly concert programmes and a forum discussion of his passing. There have been no books written about him, but I still refuse to believe he is not note-worthy. I understand that everything under the sun cannot and should not be listed in an encyclopedia, but Tex Konig is not a local manager of a Cesar's Pizza or an assistant sound editor of an album. I've been introduced to so mainly things through the help of Misplaced Pages and I made an account especially for this Konig article to spread the word of him for others to discover his life work.

There's already a large list of folk singers who appeared in Toronto's 'Fast Folk' magazine. I have browsed through this category and there are some who I would question being note-worthy. Roger Manning has three sentences and two sources. He put out only three albums and has been retried from music for over ten years. Tex Konig has played in Mariposa concerts, put out one album, two story narratives as well as several television and silver screen appearances. Additionally Michael Fracasso has an article with AllMusic.com being the only source. Fracasso is mentioned to have performed in coffeehouses, just like Tex Konig. However, Fracasso has put out six albums. Nothing else in his article screams "note-worthy" to me. If you are basing importance off of number of album releases, then you got me there. But going off of the rules of Wiki, Fracasso has no business being on this site. Fracasso and Manning are probably not the only non-notable people in this category, but I wonder how they slipped through the tight cracks of Misplaced Pages.

The sources I found were everything the internet would provide me. The forum thread was filled with stories from only personal friends and fellow folk-singers, some of whom have Wiki articles of them and some not. I still consider this as being truthful. If you reconsider publishing this article, I will look into correcting the headings (I'm very new to this and am not sure how to make general big font headings) as well as cleaning up the doubled links in the references (I am not sure what I did to make two of everything).
