Speedy Deletes

You keep adding the speedy delete tags to articles, but they don't fit the criteria one bit.--Yankees10 17:04, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

What particular articles are you referring to? AusLondonder (talk) 17:04, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Without speaking for the OP, I would say that this PROD this PROD is problematic. You claim there are no references, which is absolutely false. What due diligence did you perform to arrive at the conclusion that the subject doesn't meet the GNG? This PROD was supported with a nonsensical rationale, "No credible reason for existence". Your speedy delete nom of Frank Pelzman is improper. You nominated the subject under A7, claiming that there's no credible claim of significance. If the subject is the mayor of a town, it is A) plausible for this to happen and B) reasonable that being mayor might make you notable. Please read Wikipedia:Credible claim of significance. With only 500+ edits under your belt, I have to strongly urge you to cool it with the deletion nominations and get some more experience with Wikipedia guidelines first. We're in no hurry to delete articles and your overzealousness is putting potentially useful articles at risk. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:09, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

In the first case I did not claim there was no sources. I do not believe being a Mayor of a local town is a credible claim to significance, as per WP:POLITICIAN. Nor do I believe a creek has any credible reason for an article. I don't accept I'm putting articles at risk by nominating them. Nice to meet you too, by the way. AusLondonder (talk) 19:14, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

In the first example I used the wrong diff. My mistake. Fixed above or see here. Nextly, you are confusing notability for "a credible claim of significance". For speedy deletions, we're only trying to figure out if there is a claim of significance. "Mayor" is a claim of significance. That doesn't mean every Mayor is notable, and this guy may not make the cut down the road. "Joe Smith is a writer" doesn't claim any significance. "Joe Smith is a writer who has published ten books on mustaches" claims significance. Notability is a much higher standard. I hope this helps. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:25, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

An article that has been proposed for deletion or nominated for deletion cannot be re-prodded

I have removed the {{prod}} tag from North Fork Brewery, which you proposed for deletion, because its deletion has previously been contested or viewed as controversial. Proposed deletion is not for controversial deletions. For this reason, proposed deletion is disallowed on articles that have previously been de-{{prod}}ed, even by the article creator, or which have previously been listed on Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article, but feel free to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. Thanks! —C.Fred (talk) 18:48, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Could you please explain...

You applied a {{prod}} to Robert Rennie. Rennie was a General, and, as per WP:SOLDIER, Generals are almost always considered inherently notable.

I wonder if you could explain why you think Rennie should be an exception to this convention? Geo Swan (talk) 19:00, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

WP:SOLDIER is an essay. The article has very few sources. But I'll remove the PROD for now.AusLondonder (talk) 19:02, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Hi AusLondonder. Thank you for your work on patrolling new pages and tagging for speedy deletion. I'm just letting you know that I declined your deletion request for Zutto.../Last Minute/Walk, a page that you tagged for speedy deletion, because the criterion you used or the reason you gave does not cover this kind of page. This article does not meet the A9 criteria as the recording artist has an article. Please take a moment to look at the suggested tasks for patrollers, criteria for speedy deletion, and particularly, the section covering non-criteria. Such pages are best tagged with proposed deletion or proposed deletion for biographies of living persons, or sent to the appropriate deletion discussion. Thanks! Michael Greiner 16:35, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

OK, noted. I do apologise. AusLondonder (talk) 16:37, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Lost State Records

You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles. See the Article Wizard.

Thank you.

A tag has been placed on Lost State Records, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an acceptable page. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item G11, as well as the guidelines on spam.

If you can indicate why the subject of this page is not blatant advertising, . Clicking that button will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. You are welcome to edit the page to fix this problem, but please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. As well as removing promotional phrasing, it helps to add factual encyclopaedic information to the page, and add citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the page will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

I probably find attempts at gay conversion as repulsive as you do.

Notice

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. The thread is AusLondonder's battleground conduct. Thank you. Mellowed Fillmore (talk) 17:04, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 24 hours for abuse of editing privileges. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text below this notice: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}.

This block is the result of multiple incidents that were cited at the WP:ANI discussion: you have to comment on contributions, not contributors. Continued incivility will result in longer blocks, perhaps culminating in an indefinite block. Nyttend (talk) 17:41, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

User:Nyttend - other users commented on me first, accusing me of having an agenda and acting in bad faith, not to mention the swearing and abuse. I cannot believe this. AusLondonder (talk) 20:51, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

This must be the worst and most selective incident of selective and biased enforcement of all time. AusLondonder (talk) 20:57, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

If you think that others have also acted problematically, give me your evidence and I'll investigate it. The point is that you've infringed on our civility policy repeatedly and, as far as I can tell, unrepentantly, and as I already noted, you need to take this as a shot across the bow. Nyttend (talk) 23:19, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

User:Nyttend Look here - the admin closed as not abusive enough - what is it I did?

1.This user undid my edit, with an edit summary 'no I don't think so' which seems to breach WP:ESDONTS namely don't 'Make snide comments' or 'Be aggressive' 2.I tried to discuss at User talk:Cassianto but the user was again rather condescending and seemed to be ganging up on me with other users he already knows 3.When discussion began on at Talk:Moors murders, I simply put 'I think it is notable enough for a single line' - however, Cassianto replied 'Then you need to look up the definition of "notable", clearly.' (Ignoring WP:NNC) I believe this breaches WP:CIVIL - when I indicated the editor should read WP:CIVIL they replied 'I did once, and I vowed never to read it again' 4.It is breathtaking the way some editors feel policies don't apply to them. I was not rude to the editor, but I was treated in a condescending and arrogant manner over a very minor matter

The user then preceded to launch a very abusive and malicious attack on me. He linked my 710 contributions [166] and entirely falsely wrote 'Not so ridiculous when you look at his contributions which seem to be all geared around the May elections. This user seems to be on a campaign trial on behalf of UKIP'. This is called blatantly misleading other editors, surely in violation of policies such as WP:AGF, WP:BITE, WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA. I have nothing to do with UKIP. I am not a member of any political party. I am not enrolled to vote in the United Kingdom. So these are ludicrous allegations. I have created 21 pages, 16 non-related to the elections. Articles I have created such as Endorsements in the United Kingdom general election, 2015 are very important and been widely edited and viewed. I have also created articles such as United Kingdom general election, 2015 (Wales) in accordance with precedent. I have worked hard on the project for good and in good faith. Examples: List of European Union member states by GDP growth and Mr Galloway Goes to Washington. I have successfully nominated dozens of articles for speedy deletion. As a new editor, I am deeply upset by how hard it is to edit this site without abuse and being treated like a moron (WP:BITE). It certainly is not encouraging for those wanting to make a difference in good faith. Nothing at WP:SPA points to me. 5.The editor has breached multiple policies.

Editor still going. He has written now 'What makes you think I give a fuck about your political leanings?' (despite questioning them) and removed the ANI notification remarking 'what a waste of time'. What is the point of WP:CIVIL, WP:AGF, WP:NPA, WP:BITE?

What did I say that was uncivil? Mellowed Fillmore said 'It is my view that AusLondonder is clearly not here to build an encyclopedia. He is likely to remain a problematic editor and I'm not sure that any more patience needs to be shown' - yet I have created 27 pages including Endorsements in the United Kingdom general election, 2015 and List of European Union member states by GDP growth. How can they possibly say that with your agreement? I will address each other point at the ANI if you wish. AusLondonder (talk) 23:38, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

So it's not abusive to say 'fucking', 'fuck', 'bullshit', accuse of WP:SPA accuse of breaching WP:SPA but what I did deserves a ban? Look here The admin said this abuse did not even deserve a warning - yet my conduct deserve a block this is utterly unbelievable. AusLondonder (talk) 23:52, 7 May 2015 (UTC)

User:Nyttend...AusLondonder (talk) 07:07, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

For one thing, please read the forum-shopping page: I will not attempt to over-rule a decision at a closed discussion, especially one so recent. Meanwhile, linking your contributions and using them as a basis for saying "He seems to be on a pro-ukip campaign" is not a problem of the sort: maybe it's inaccurate, but unless it's a long-term pattern of behavior (e.g. he's harassing you long-term), it's not something deserving sanctions. The problems that led me to block you are not a matter of individual words; it's behavior patterns, with things like ad homines together with what looks to me like a battleground approach. Your comments here reinforce that: you need to stop beating the dead horse of "Everybody else is hating on me" and stop resuscitating arguments that have already been closed. If you continue spending this much space, and wasting this much time for other people, you'll soon be ignored at best. Nyttend (talk) 13:35, 11 May 2015 (UTC)

But wasn't it your decision User:Nyttend? Can I appeal an expired block? I only even responded to much more abusive attacks, I never attacked anyone else first. Editors accused me of being a sock, or WP:SPA with no evidence, in contravention of policy. I have never sought to engaged in battleground behaviour. I also want to 'resuscitate' as I feel the block besmirches my record and was deeply unfair. AusLondonder (talk) 03:36, 12 May 2015 (UTC)
