Dear Artic Kangaroo
Firs,t all my apologies for disturbing your peace, I am new to wikipedia. I have spent dozens of hours trying to edit the article on Bruno Solnik trying to provide proper references. I do not understand what is wrong. I searched hours before disturbing you. All the references provided are from official websites of; - HKUST (Hong Kong University of Science and Technology)a leading university in Asia (often regarded as among the top 5 by many rankings). All documents posted by the university are verified by HKUST before posting. I can see that most academic authors also use university websites to authenticate. - other official websites of the Financial Times and CFA Institute.
Every single information is verified in these public websites from reputable institutions.
I am not saying that I did not make a mistake. But it would be useful if you could point to my error. I have checked numerous other wikipedia biographies and could not find where I erred.
Many thanks Solnik
Reliable sources???
Hello,
I submitted an article by the name of Zainab Chottani, a well known designer in Pakistan. But my article was rejected on grounds that my sources were not reliable. The sources I used were newspapers and fashion magazines. What else is needed?
Jordan Older notability satisfied according to http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Notability_(sports)#Association_football
Dear Artic Kangaroo,
Sorry to bother you and thanks for your time.
When this player was playing the Internet was not widley in use so there are not good records from this time available online, espcially in Brazil and Europe where mainstream use of the Internet lagged domestic(USA) use. However, there are 3 links that fully satisfy Misplaced Pages rules notability in Association Football, proving the subject's notability.
1) One of the top sports news agency's in Brazil states the names of the teams and the dates and every Brazilian soccer fan knows these famous teams. This is the most recent objective evidence from a reputable 3rd party news source that is entirely independent of the subject, but you have to use Google translate. This proof is much better than 90% of the proof used for thousands of other soccer player articles published on Misplaced Pages, alone. http://www.futebolinterior.com.br/news/259995+Ex-jogador_vira_empresario_e_comeca_a_ganhar_espaco_no_futebol (Portuguese language - use translator)
2) http://uslpro.uslsoccer.com/stats/23496.html States that the subject satisfies the Misplaced Pages rules of notability via Association football by having appeared in a in a fully professional league "USL Professional Division . (USSF Division 2 Professional League, USL First Division and USL Second Division". This is This is tricky because the team has changed leagues and is no longer in existence.
3) http://www.lsk.se/default.asp?do=game_details&gameID=1111 The official web site for professional Swedish 1st division team states clearly that the subject played in the top league in Brazil. (Swedish language - use translator)
There are a few other reputable, 3rd party citations/links which prove the notability of the subject and the statements made. The main problem here is that the Internet was not in use during the time the subject played, but this shouldn't matter since we have the current news article from the one of the top soccer news agencies in Brazil which fully corroborates all statements.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000
FOUR STEPS TO PROOF OF NOTABILITY CHAIN OF PROOF LOGIC MORE THAN FULLY SATISFYING WIKIPEDIA RULES
1) "Players who have appeared ... in a fully professional league"
2) "list of fully professional leagues"
3) "USL Professional Division"
4) http://uslpro.uslsoccer.com/stats/23496.html (official USL Pro game stat showing subject has satisfied Misplaced Pages rules of notability and is entirely independent of the subject)

Association football Shortcuts: WP:NFOOTBALL WP:NFOOTY WP:NSOCCER
1. Association football (soccer) figures are presumed notable if they meet the following:
Players, managers and referees who have represented their country in any FIFA sanctioned senior international match (including the Olympics) are notable as they have achieved the status of participating at the highest level of football. The notability of these is accepted as they would have received significant coverage as outlined above in the general notability criteria.
2. Players who have appeared, and managers who have managed, in a fully professional league, will generally be regarded as notable. oooooooooooSee a list of fully professional leagues kept by WikiProject Football.ooooooooooo
Note: A player who signs for a domestic team but has not played in any games is not deemed to have participated in a competition, and is therefore not generally regarded as being notable.

inquiry on the jerome rudolph article
I received your review message, specific to the verifiability of the article. Using this article http://en.wikipedia.org/Maurice_Mitchell and http://en.wikipedia.org/Ka%27Deem_Carey as templates I do not see where the sources cited are any less credible. Are there certain portions considered too detailed that should be cut out?
Historical precedence says that these particular sources i.e. Patriotleague.org which is a peer insitution of pac12.com and the Mitchell article cites the FSU seminole website similarly to the Lafayette Leopard cite being cited. Should I trim certain specifics?

Hi,
My first article on Thierry Dreyfus was rejected because it was said to be an advertisement.
Even though it is not true, I really do want to improve my article so that it can published. Since it is you who said it was an ad, could you please tell me why you thought so ?
By advance, thanks.

Dear Arctic Kangaroo: I have come across several of your more recent reviews when the articles were resubmitted and I want to compliment you on how specific you are being in your comments. I'm sure the submitters appreciate it. Keep it up! —Anne Delong (talk) 20:48, 25 July 2013 (UTC) |
- Thanks Anne. Too bad, I can't review any AfC submissions for now, since there is a discussion at ANI about an AfC topic ban on me. Feel free to comment there if you want to. Anyway, I see that CAT:AFC's gonna hit a backlog soon, but I'm glad that those reviewers (especially Dodger67 and Minna) are doing their best to keep it down. Even if I'm not going to get a topic ban, I can't be at AfC anyway. The haze is back in Indonesia and Malaysia, and the haze just returned to Singapore tonight! Have already been busy with it in the past few days. I probably will be busy with the article whenever the haze returns, and it can be anytime until October. Cheers. ✉→Arctic Kangaroo←✎ 15:01, 26 July 2013 (UTC)

I think this would be a good time for you to stop posting on Geo Swan's talk page, as things do not seem to be improving there.
In passing, I would note that Mattbuck can't block you on the English Misplaced Pages (though he could presumably block you on Commons). Spending time telling him about your opinion of him is probably not useful. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 14:54, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for July 28
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2013 Southeast Asian haze, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Subang (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.

WP:AFC contributions
Hello AK, this is just to formally let you know that I have closed the discussion at AN/I. The result is that the community has banned you for three months from the limited field of making decisions (accept/reject) at AfC. As suggested during the AN/I discussion, there is no ban on you continuing to learn and develop, indeed I see that you have already signed up to this program and would encourage you to participate. Please in future, do consider accepting advice and guidance from more experienced editors at an earlier stage. Nobody wants to be banned or blocked, and it's much nicer all round for guidance to be graciously accepted rather than forced unwillingly upon someone! Good luck.

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
- Views/Day
- Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
- Quality
- Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
- Content
- Is more content needed?
- Headings
- Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
- Images
- Is the number of illustrative images about right?
- Links
- Does this article link to enough other Misplaced Pages articles?
- Sources
- For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Misplaced Pages better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 00:02, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
User:Arctic Kangaroo/Blacklisted users & WP:POLEMIC
Hello, Arctic Kangaroo! Regarding User:Arctic Kangaroo/Blacklisted users and User:Arctic Kangaroo#Blacklisted users (by me), please read WP:POLEMIC.
- Polemical statements unrelated to Misplaced Pages, or statements attacking or vilifying groups of editors, persons, or other entities (these are generally considered divisive and removed, and reintroducing them is often considered disruptive).
- Material that can be viewed as attacking other editors, including the recording of perceived flaws. The compilation of factual evidence (diffs) in user subpages, for purposes such as preparing for a dispute resolution process, is permitted provided it will be used in a timely manner.
- Users should generally not maintain in public view negative information related to others without very good reason. Negative evidence, laundry lists of wrongs, collations of diffs and criticisms related to problems, etc., should be removed, blanked, or kept privately (i.e., not on the wiki) if they will not be imminently used, and the same once no longer needed.
I'm afraid your blacklist is going to result in another AN/I thread and really could lead to additional sanctions per WP:CIR and WP:NOTHERE. To minimize the damage, it is most likely in your best interest to remove the section from your userpage and tag your subpage for speedy deletion with {{db-author}}. I say this with your best interests in mind, so please do not dismiss this offhandedly. Rgrds. --64.85.214.57 (talk) 16:11, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
- Hi AK, I suggest you follow the advice above as soon as you are editing again. As I hinted further up this page, getting into this sort of battle with other editors is not going to lead anywhere good. (Clearer: it is likely to lead to you being blocked, regardless of whether that's fair or unfair.) Lists of users with whom you are unhappy does not help to improve the encyclopedia in any way. I guess you are away at the moment, and I hope you will deal with this promptly when you return. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 18:50, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
- I agree that this blacklist is a bad idea likely to lead to unnecessary drama and would say getting rid of it voluntarily is the best course of action. Huon (talk) 18:52, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for fixing this! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 20:19, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please remember to mark your edits, such as your recent edits to 2013 Southeast Asian haze, as "minor" only if they truly are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. Please do NOT use the minor edits checkbox unless it is truly minor. Nearly all of your edits are flagged as minor, such as this one which is obviously not a minor edit. Basically, if it's not a typo or format change, don't use the check box. Ravensfire (talk) 17:25, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
Please do not add unreferenced or poorly referenced information, especially if controversial, to articles or any other page on Misplaced Pages about living persons, as you did to Manuel Jiménez Jiménez. Thank you.

Topic ban, and postponed indef block
AK,
As an uninvolved admin, I've reviewed the ANI thread. There are a few things that need to be crystal clear:
1. You are topic banned from uploading any more media to Misplaced Pages or Commons. If you upload any more media before this topic ban is removed, you will be blocked indefinitely. I would usually not threaten a block for doing something on Commons, but this is a special case. You still have a very obvious misunderstanding of licensing, and that lack of understanding has sucked up a lot of other people's time and attention. I will attempt to explain more clearly in a while, but I need to get this summary down first.
2. There is a very clear consensus to indef block you as well. I'm going against consensus and declining to do that. Another admin may see it differently, and if they choose to block you, I cannot fight it. So keep in mind that comments I make about what you need to do to stay unblocked may be moot, if another admin decides to follow the very clear consensus at ANI.
3. I will explain in a little while what you'll need to do to stay unblocked, but a sneak preview is: keep your head down, don't do anything remotely controversial, and be constantly aware that there is, evidently, only one stupid admin standing between you and an indef block. You've used up your 9 lives, and half of a 10th.
More in a while. --Floquenbeam (talk) 21:36, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
- One of the biggest reasons people think you should be indef blocked is that you don't appear to understand how licensing works; the same theory applies to images and to text.
- There is a message when you edit that indicates you accept the CC-BY-SA license (there was also such a message when you upload images). You may have been aware of it before, but you can't claim to be unaware of it now. So I'd like you to confirm, before you edit anymore:
- Do you acknowledge that all text you contribute to any Wikimedia project is automatically licensed CC-BY-SA, and cannot be revoked, ever?
- One last thing before I let you digest this: one of the main reasons I declined to block is I wanted to slow this discussion down; to be honest, I'd recommend you take some time before you respond. A lot of what you've said in the last day is, I hope, due to adrenaline. Let's keep calm, and take it slow, OK? --Floquenbeam (talk) 22:04, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
