Humayun Khan edit

Why did you create Humayun Khan (soldier)? The subject fails WP:MILPEOPLE and all the coverage is about this DNC argument, so WP:BLP1E applies. I'd like to hear your explanation before I take it to AfD. Chris Troutman (talk) 23:07, 2 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hey, now. I created the bio before it became a full-on political football,[1] with simply the WP:GNG in mind (or as the first sentence of WP:MILPEOPLE explains "In general, an individual is presumed to be notable if they have received significant coverage in multiple verifiable independent, reliable sources.") That was good enough for me.
I don't believe that the subsequent passing back and forth of the ball between the Trump and Clinton campaigns would make his bio any less notable.
Furthermore, I would suggest that the ensuing controversy might best be split off into it's own article, but... frankly, I did something similar with Mitt Romney's tax returns back in 2012, but then that article got deleted, and when I tried to undo my split, I got indef blocked by @Timotheus Canens for ~5 months until I finally convinced @Beeblebrox: to give me another chance.
As such, my learned advice to you, per WP:TIND, is to just ride this out until after the election; 20 weeks is short and the arc of WP:5P is long. August is a slow news month in any year,[2] which makes it during a Presidential election year High Holy Silly Season.
Still, if you really want to turn this into a Wikipedian political football too, just send it to AfD. Fools rush in where angels fear to tread. It'll only bring out the worse in all of us. -- Kendrick7talk 23:58, 2 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
The claim "I created the bio before it became a full-on political football" isn't so. The sources (and the stub you created) are based on coverage solely because the Khan family's appearance at the DNC. None of that coverage was ever about CPT Khan, himself, independent of the hubub and you know that. Now to say that I dare not send it to AfD because of the ensuing furor is disappointing from a ten year editor. It would appear you get joy out of creating these stubs about people and things that aren't really notable. In the future, please be more careful. Chris Troutman (talk) 05:49, 3 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
Maybe I've used slightly the wrong metaphor, but football is a sport that requires two teams playing. I honestly didn't expect Khizr and Ghazala Khan to end up much more than a footnote to the DNC 2016 article due to being Chelsea Clinton's opening act; now they have their own article.
You're correct that if I have two and a half reliable sources about someone or something I find even remoting interesting and a working keyboard, I'll probably stub out an article and I do take joy in that. Here's another one I'm quite proud of; yeesh, has it really been almost eight years?[3] -- Kendrick7talk 11:43, 3 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Reference spacing edit

Hi there,

Saw this at Humayun Khan (soldier). Not actually interested to get involved in that particular back-and-forth, but it made me curious. I understand each parameter on a separate line for templates not used in the text, like infoboxes. I'd also understand someone having a preference for them to be displayed that way with named references stored together at the bottom. But why that way in the text? When I see that, I presume it's because someone copy/pasted or used a citation tool and nobody has gone through to clean it up yet. To me a citation that takes up as much space as two paragraphs negatively affects usability/editability. Although I regularly remove such line breaks, I don't think I've ever been reverted for it (nor can I remember seeing a revert, except perhaps for an infobox). Seeing this ongoing dispute, however, makes me realize that I don't know what basis there is in the MOS or elsewhere for either position. WP:CITEVAR doesn't cover it (it's not a change in citation style/method), nor do I see anything on the rest of Wikipedia:Citing sources. If there's a page, or perhaps an RfC, could you point me to it? Thanks. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 00:44, 4 August 2016 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Mansour Haj Azim edit

 

The article Mansour Haj Azim has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Not a notable BLP. The only reference is a trivial mention from 2007, and no other references are found in a brief search.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. power~enwiki (π, ν) 23:39, 10 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Honeywell Lead section edit

Hello Kendrick7, I've been working on factual updates to the Honeywell article, and I'd like to get another pair of eyes on it. I have a WP:COI with Honeywell, so I'm refraining from editing directly. I saw you helped my former colleague FacultiesIntact, with Honeywell related projects in the past.

Hello Kendrick7, Thanks for taking a keen eye to the article. Can you help me understand your approach to reorganizing the lead and history section? Can you help me see what you saw when you came to the article?--Chefmikesf (talk) 23:42, 15 November 2019 (UTC)Reply
Kendrick7 Thank you for the context and additions to the article. I see where you're coming from. I believe the lead paragraph falls short of giving the reader context about the article and Honeywell as a whole, especially when considering WP: Lead. The lead should summarize the article as a whole, and it feels deficient relative to such a long article. I think some of the content moves make sense, but we could add to the lead while keeping it NPOV. Also, if you found it challenging to put the content originally in the lead paragraphs, perhaps it might help to collaborate.
Before making any changes, I wanted to run this lead proposal by you. Would you be open to coming up with a solution here before bringing this to the main article space?

May 2020 edit

Hi Kendrick7. Summarising the discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard #Kendrick7, you seem to have gone to lengths to circumvent an edit filter designed to prevent linking to the content revealing the name of living person. One admin has already opined that it's a blockable offence under BLP and I agree with him. I do understand that you may be merely trying to make a point about Wikipedia not being censored, but in this case, it's a step too far. Please don't do anything similar to that again, otherwise I am certain that an uninvolved admin will not hesitate to sanction you. Thank you for your understanding. --RexxS (talk) 16:08, 20 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Nick Nichols edit

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Nick Nichols requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it 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.

A barnstar for you! edit

  The Original Barnstar
Thanks for fixing my damage at C-Boy. I was removing links after that IP kept repurposing your redirect, but didn't see that the link was correct at that page. Jalen Folf (talk) 04:17, 28 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
Oh thanks, @JalenFolf:, although as I explained at Talk:Nick Nichols, I sort of screwed this up in 2018 to begin with, but usually an eight year old AFD doesn't have a bunch of incoming links. And no one even noticed until I did, which speaks a bit to the non-notability of the original target, I think. Still, there's probably a fandom joke in here somewhere! :p -- Kendrick7talk 21:39, 28 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
