Hi Hayden, Inquiry on behalf of Louisville City FC Owner

Hi Hayden! I see you’ve been a contributor to the Louisville City FC page so we wanted to reach out as we are working to have one of the owners recognized for his affiliation with both the men's and women's teams, and the stadium - as well as for his philanthropic efforts. He’s a prominent investor, art collector, and sits on the boards of several charitable and non-profit organizations tied to everything from animal welfare to humanitarian + emergency rescue efforts across the globe. Our team is curious if you or a collection of contributors would be willing to help us submit a well-cited page about him, or if you have recommendations as frequent editors and contributors about how to go about it. If so, please email me at robyn@starkgroupnyc.com and thanks in advance! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.185.101.142 (talk) 20:19, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

Ways to improve 2022–23 Duke Blue Devils men's basketball team

Hello, IagoQnsi,

Thank you for creating 2022–23 Duke Blue Devils men's basketball team.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

This article is missing prose, which means it fails notability for sports teams. Team season articles should consist mainly of well-sourced prose, not just statistics and lists of players. Wikipedia is not a stats directory. See WP:NSEASONS for guidance.
It may be useful to include some content about the previous season performance and outcomes.
Failing this notability guide, this article may be redirected to the main team page. For good example of a season article for a team with prose, consider the Overview in 1987–88 AEK Athens F.C. season
Other examples are LSU Tigers football and the 2022–23 North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball team articles.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and begin it with {{Re|Whiteguru}}. Remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Speedy deletion nomination of Ver.1.03

 

A tag has been placed on Ver.1.03 requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

As per Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 November 16#Ver.1.01, this should also be deleted. I don't think this deserves discussion due to WP:SNOW and WP:BURO

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.   {userpage! | talk!} 22:39, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Sports Illustrated cover 2002-02-18.jpg

 

Thank you for uploading File:Sports Illustrated cover 2002-02-18.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. — Red-tailed hawk (nest) 01:05, 16 December 2022 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:0x10c logo.png

 

Thanks for uploading File:0x10c logo.png. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

  1. Go to the file description page and add the text {{Di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
  2. On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification, per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 10:00, 22 March 2023 (UTC)

I just want you to know that a large number of articles are severely biased

Hi, around March 2016, you once told me that "Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view". I would only like to point out that certain topics on Wikipedia (I am specifially referring to religious demographics (i.e. the composition of religious groups in a country or territory)) are very heavily biased towards very specific viewpoints that go completely going against Wikipedia's principle of a "Neutral point of view". What I am refering to is that articles about countries' religious demographics are somehow now biased towards either a heavily secularist bias or are biased towards minority groups. I just hope you can understand and help spread the message to others. Belson 303 (talk) 18:28, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

File:St. Louis City SC logo.svg

It seems the club only made a trademark application, see [1] [2]. Wouldn't that suggest it's uncopyrightable? For example the LAFC logo has been deemed uncopyrightable by the US copyright office, see [3]. Jonteemil (talk) 06:29, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

All works that can be copyrighted are automatically copyrighted under the Berne Convention, even if the copyright holder doesn't register their copyright. It's possible that, if the team did try to register their copyright, the US Copyright Office could reject it as too simple. But they've got at least a decent argument that it's complex enough for copyright, so without a published decision to the contrary, I think we have to assume it's copyrightable. (I'd say it's similar in complexity to the Vancouver Whitecaps FC logo, for which the USCO initially denied registration but later reversed their decision; see that decision). –IagoQnsi (talk) 23:31, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

Notice Box Corrections

Hello. I am a frequent editor of the page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Trejo and I saw the notice box on the article this evening. It states that a section of the article may be overly detailed, the section with match summaries for 2023. It states that spinning off or relocating may be necessary while reducing the number of details I wrote. Would shortening the match summaries help? Or would a "See Match Summaries" work that directs to a Wikipedia sub-page? Thank you. Jmr012 (talk) 22:49, 5 October 2023 (UTC)

@Jmr012: More likely, the fix would be removing the match summaries altogether. It is pretty rare that we have paragraph-level detail about any single soccer match on Wikipedia unless it's a particularly notable match. For one season of one player's career, particularly a non-professional season, we usually would have a paragraph or two. It seems like you're a really motivated editor for this article so I could imagine having a bit more depth than is typical, but we have to avoid giving undue weight to any one part of his biography. Right now half of the article is just the 2023 season, which seems very unbalanced to me. –IagoQnsi (talk) 22:57, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for your reply. I see what you mean. I have weighed the article down and made it unbalanced with material that is not critical to the subject. If I may, would it be possible for me to create a subpage for the article with the match summaries on the subpage? That way the match summaries are not lost and readers do not have to waste time poring through them if they don't want to. But the option for details is there if readers want it. This will rebalance the article and if the subpage doesn't work out, then the entire subpage can be easily deleted with no harm to the article. Jmr012 (talk) 23:11, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
@Jmr012: It would be pretty atypical to have a separate article just for match summaries focused on a single player; we don't have that level of depth even for very famous players like Lionel Messi, so it would not make a lot of sense to have it for a player with just two professional appearances. We could have an article titled 2023 Ohio State Buckeyes men's soccer team that talks about these matches from a team perspective though. IagoQnsi (talk) 23:17, 5 October 2023 (UTC)
Thank you for the information and for the idea. My main concern is that the article focuses on the subject as it is biographical in nature. Not the team he plays on. Everything in the present article is centered around the subject because he is the focus of the article. Material about his team and fellow players is included in the article because they affect him, and he affects them. The match summaries aren't really about his team or fellow players on his team who are occasionally mentioned, but rather, they are focused on the subject and his performance in matches. So much of his personality and existence is wrapped up in his identity as a D-I keeper. My goal has been to provide the subject with one of the most thorough, accurate, highly cited, well-researched, fair, and readable D-I soccer player articles in all of Wikipedia. As for writing up a new article about Ohio State's 2023 men's soccer season, to do so properly and have a resulting high-quality article would require a burdensome amount of time and take editing skills I am yet to possess (though I very much want to keep learning). Further, such pages are usually prepared by fans of the sports program or fans of the university. Back to the article... As there are only a few matches left in the season, if I may, I would ask for me to please be allowed to finish the match summaries for the current season. And when the season is complete, in approximately one (1) month, I will then remove the summaries en masse. I may find a suitable place for the information at some place other than Wikipedia.
