Mikie Da Poet

edit

Due to editor's claims that the artist did not fully meet the criteria, the previous deletion reviews were turned down. The page is being placed under 'speedy removal' without any consideration to policy. The following statement is taken directly from a Wikipedia criteria and a Wikipedia editor, from an earlier deletion:

       * "The kind of independent reliable sources we'd need to justify the claims in this article would be things such as articles in culture- or music-oriented magazines, newspaper articles, mention in published books, newsmagazine articles, TV news segments, and the like."

The following is a TV news segment from Fox News, in which Mikie Da Poet performs a song and closes the show (4:32 mark of video) for platinum-selling hip hop group, Do or Die, who are also found to be notable by Wikipedia. [1]

       * News anchor David Navarro calls Mikie Da Poet a "hot new star" (0:09 mark of video) and Fox also reports him to be "the new Eminem" according to fans and music critics. (4:32 mark of video)

Wikipedia, among others find Fox News to be notable, therefore Mikie Da Poet is notable.

       * Mikie's song "Exploitation" is under license by 20/20 Media and has been used as the featured song in the upcoming film/documentary "Business As Usual: Exploitation of Hip Hop", starring Mekhi Phifer, Kanye West, Dr. Cornell West, Bobby Brown, and many more Wikipedia notables. [2] (Video at bottom of official site)
       * [3] His name is mentioned in the credits at the conclusion of the trailer.
       * IMDb page for the film, credits shown for Mikie Da Poet's composition and writing of the featured soundtrack. [4]

To sum up, based on Wikipedia criteria, the sources provided above should be more than enough to restore this page. Thank you for your time —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.228.44.99 (talk) 10:16, 25 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Can you please take a look at this article? It's another one of Time_Will_Say_Nothing (talk · contribs) pages that are from the autobiography. I've tried redirecting it, I tried warning him, but nothing is working. Thanks.--v/r - TP 23:04, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I've given him a final warning. Nakon 23:04, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I have read your final warning. Your conduct is unacceptable harassment. You state there is no context. Read the first sentence and the source which together provide the context.

Another page in this series has been deleted twice. Why is one page directed and another deleted? There is no consistency in your approach, demonstrating that it is the product of wilful and caprcious harrassment. Time Will Say Nothing (talk) 23:08, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

If you are looking to add primary source material, you may want to try over at our sister project, Wikisource. Nakon 23:10, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

This is secondary source material. It is from a published book. I have given the source on each page concerned. There is no consistency in your statements. First, you say put the extracts on the main page. Now you say put in on a different project.--v/r - TP 03:09, 5 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

There is also no consistency in the objections to these edits. First they are said to be promotional. I note that that ridiculous objection has been removed by the editor who made it, having been disproved. Then the objection seems to be vandalism of a page. Now you suggest indiscriminate collection of information. What exactly is the objection? There is nothing indiscriminate about this project. I intend over time to add significant extracts from the book. These extracts will take up too much space if they are all on one page. As it is they are co-ordinated (and therefore not indiscriminate) by the fact that they are linked from the main page Up To Now. This is a carefully thought-out project, unlike the raft of inconsistent objections, and aggressive edits. Kindly stop preventing information from being posted in an orderly and co-ordinated manner. Thanks Time Will Say Nothing (talk) 23:22, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

There is not enough content to warrant individual articles for each piece. Either add it to the main article, or add it to a different project. Nakon 23:23, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Now you make a further totally different objection! This not about effective editing, but about the egos of the editors involved. I also notice that a box was placed on the main page (Up To Now), saying there was no source, although I had previously put the source at the bottom of the page! Don't your editors bother to read the pages before tagging them?. Time Will Say Nothing (talk) 23:26, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I didn't place the tag, you'll have to speak to the editor that did. Nakon 23:28, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Now you make a further totally different objection - "not enough content"! This not about effective editing, but about the petty egos of the editors involved. There will be too much content for the main page. Therefore individual pages are justified. Your comment "add it to a different project" is ludicrous. There is only one project.

KLAS Enterprises, LLC

edit

I was stunned by the speed with which you deleted this page. This is a very important company doing extremely valuable research. Did you even bother to review their web side? I have no affiliation or personal stake in this company, just happen to know about their work. I am amazed I didn't even have a chance to add the {{hang on}} label. I have been a contributor to the Wikipedia for some six and a half years, have made thousands of contributions and have created many articles, and never had this happen to me. You are doing a disservice to the Wikipedia by doing this. I wonder what gives you this right. I urge you to undelete the article ASAP. Pasquale (talk) 23:59, 4 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

I'll restore and send it to AFD. Nakon 00:02, 5 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for restoring it, Nakon, however, a few hours after you did and before I could get back to the article and flesh it out, another admin, Slakr, speedy-deleted it anyway, adding the comment "was blatant advertising, used only to promote someone or something". Well, the only thing that's blatant here is this kid's ignorance and arrogance! As a steady contributor to the Wikipedia since June 2004, I find this charge offensive and libelous. What prompted me to create the article about this company is the fact that there are red links to it, so I searched for information on the Web to start a stub. That's called advertising? I find this behavior on the part of certain admins egregious and abusive. As I repeat, I have no affiliation or personal interest in this company. I now ask you to please undelete it so that I can get back to it, edit what's there, and add more information. Let me remind you that the Criteria for speedy deletion state: "Administrators should take care not to speedy delete pages or media except in the most obvious cases. [...] Contributors sometimes create pages over several edits, so administrators should avoid deleting a page that appears incomplete too soon after its creation." Pasquale (talk) 15:25, 6 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
The deletion discussion is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/KLAS Enterprises, LLC. Nakon 18:52, 6 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Oh, well, thanks a lot for letting me know. I hadn't even seen this! You would think the creator of the article would be alerted sooner, wouldn't you? I am deeply puzzled by the users who make pronouncements without the least knowledge of cause, such as "Not notable." (E. Fokker); "Obvious advertisement." (Soewinhan); and so on and so forth. These people don't know what they're talking about, but they probably get a kick from exercising this kind of power. In six and a half years of contributing to the Wikipedia, I have probably dedicated several thousand hours to building the Wikipedia, but have never once engaged in this foolish, vain, and destructive type of exercise. Oh, well, I'll have to rewrite the article, keeping in mind that the Criteria for speedy deletion ("Administrators should take care not to speedy delete pages or media except in the most obvious cases. [...] Contributors sometimes create pages over several edits, so administrators should avoid deleting a page that appears incomplete too soon after its creation.") are apparently ignored and without consequence!

Stop threatening

edit

There is consensus to the move.

First, I suggest it.

Then, someone added an opinion that the year, 2011, was important.

All of these were incorporated into the title move.

If you complain and threaten but do not participate in the discussion, YOU are wrong.

If you oppose the move, then discuss it. Your voice would then be part of the consensus. Hakkapeliitta (talk) 23:06, 8 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

The poll was closed and any further moves will be considered disruption, as well as a breach of the three-revert rule Nakon 23:07, 8 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Please stop

edit

What you did is really wrong and improper.

You, as an administrator, should know better. This is a blockable offense.

What I discuss is entirely valid. It is whether we even need a reactions section, whether we should rely on reliable sources to decide who has a notable reaction, or whether we should allow original research to decide whom I deem as important.

This is very reasonable and an important issue.

Ok, so you don't like a poll so I've bowed down to your wishes and made it a discussion and not a poll. Hakkapeliitta (talk) 00:27, 9 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

It's still shaped like a poll. Please read about how Wikipedia determines consensus. Also, please be aware of the three-revert rule, which states that "an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period". Nakon 00:30, 9 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

It is a discussion. You are free to introduce more than the 3 ideas.

Please know that I have the very best of intentions. Every shooting and earthquake and typhoon will have a reaction from politicians. Americans tend to worship politicians. They put them on money unlike some countries who will put authors, artists, and explorers on money. They want to edit in the reactions of politicians in Wikipedia.

By trying to decide the issue before the bad event occurs, we can be objective. Hakkapeliitta (talk) 00:35, 9 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

To show that I have the best of intentions for Wikipedia, I am moving away from the Tucson article (probably won't edit it today) and bring the issue to Village Pump so there can be discussion among people who are not related or have any interest in Tucson. There, an objective discussion can be made. Hakkapeliitta (talk) 00:37, 9 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

stop

edit

  Stop following and hounding me. In good faith, I backed away from the Tucson article. You keep following me around. That is very vindictive and childish.

My discussion is for the betterment of Wikipedia. We can decide problems that we know WILL happen. If you make up laws after the crime to fit the crime, that is very devious. Likewise, to make the rules to apply to the article already written is bad. We already know the potential problem so we can discuss it now before it happens.

Once again, the problem is that there will be a desire for some to have a reaction section to major events. The discussion is whether we should allow reliable sources to determine who is a notable reaction or if we even need a reaction section since all politicians will express regret or sorrow to a tragic event. Hakkapeliitta (talk) 00:41, 9 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Apology: When I am wrong, I will admit. I am sorry to have called you childish and vindictive for following me. I have read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Hounding#Wikihounding What you did was not childish or vindictive. It is, according to Wikipedia, disruptive. Please do not be disruptive.

I agree with Outback. Reverting any discussion without explanation looks both inappropriate and highly suspicious. Explaining in the edit summary why the revert was made would avoid any confusion from the get go. YardsGreen (talk) 08:07, 11 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
The explanation is in the user's block log. Nakon 08:13, 11 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
Perhaps the system was taking a long time to update, but when I checked the sockpuppet's user page immediately after your revert, there was no obvious indication that the user had been blocked. Also, it still looks bad to those who don't take the time to look at the user page to get to the user's block log. Adding a small message like "User blocked as a sockpuppet" to the edit summary would take seconds and would prevent a lot of misunderstanding. YardsGreen (talk) 05:07, 12 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
There isn't an easy way to do that through the rollback links. There will usually not be a block template on the user's userpage. Please check the block log in the future. If anyone has any questions about the legitimacy of a revert or block, I welcome their comments here. Thanks, Nakon 05:10, 12 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

So I'm on Huggle and I see edits by a user to a sandbox page. Looks like they're trying to add WP:SPAM. I check their user page and see your warning about creating articles, but don't see it in their edit history making me think the an article has been deleted. So I report over at WP:UAA because of WP:SPAMNAME. Given that you warned them, and the page was deleted, that probably should've been a clue that you're an admin that could handle it without a report at WP:UAA.

Indefinite block is inappropriate.

edit

An indefinite block for User:Momma82, User:mlcdimes, and 2 others on the same IP address who made and immediately reverted mere test edits to learn how Wikipedia worked was _inappropriate_. An indefinite block for their IP address is against Wikipedia policy. Please read up on how blocks are supposed to work. An indefinite block on an academic IP address is now allowed. I require these students to learn Wikipedia as part of a university course. You didn't know that. Regardless of that, though, we are supposed to administer indefinite block only in specific circumstances, and their test edits (like adding an extra space between sentences) do not qualify.

Deletion of Hstory of Kruger National Park

edit

Hi. First the background:

Hi. I've created my first page and it was speedily deleted. All the information in this new article was from another Wikipedia article (Kruger National Park). The idea being to to start somewhere and expand from there. Apart from the introduction, about 80 - 90% of the new article was in my own words since I contributed it to the original Kruger National Park article. I've also provided references. Can you please point out the offending parts? Or must I start from scratch using the same references again? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Salitje (talk • contribs) 19:06, 22 January 2011 (UTC) Sorry, forgot about signing Salitje (talk) 19:16, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

If the text was taken from another Wikipedia article it has to be deleted there also, as it was taken word for word from a third party source. Travelbird (talk) 19:17, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of History of Kruger National Park Mmm I see what you mean - it was taken from "Author's Statement". Extinct Megafauna - The First Victims of the Human Caused Extinction. Edmeades (self). http://www.megafauna.com/author.htm. OK lesson learnt... Salitje (talk) 19:35, 22 January 2011 (UTC

Question. Is it possible to restore the article minus the offending part? Or must I start afresh? Salitje (talk) 20:12, 22 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

If the copyvio content was in the original article, please recreate it without the copyright violation. I can email you a copy of the deleted article if you'd like. Nakon 20:27, 22 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi,

Can you tell me after how many months/days will I be able to apply again for Reviewership? I guess I satisfy all the other criteria.

Thanks in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Boolyme (talkcontribs) 20:39, 24 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Dreamworld Pakistan page deleted almost 5 mins after the Hangon request

edit

By the grace of AlMighty Allah, this is an extremely important page for Pakistan as well as Pakistanis. The wrong media perception of the country (which has population of more than 200 million people Alhamdulillah) is strongly countered by Amusing places like Dreamworld. People of Pakistan are passionate, fun loving, family oriented people who live a very normal and usual life like most of the other 5.80 billion people of the world. Dreamworld is one such place through which Allah provides such life style to Pakistanis. The Australian Dreamworld page on wikipedia have much more info than this page which is infact giving a "promotional" impact of that Amusement Park. But more importantly it does not have its national identity associated with it as loudly as this page, as you may notice the title of this page: "Dreamworld PAKISTAN". Thus, this page is not only fit on wikipedia criteria but its subject is also very important and significant as it adds another value into Pakistan's true National image.

It is strongly recommended to not only restrict deletion of this page but also help in deigning it better. You may visit the official website of Dreamworld PAKISTAN and see for yourself that by the grace of AlMighty Allah how big the Resort is. How many Resorts in the world do you think have following so many attractions in one place: Water Park, Amusement park, Golf course, Hotel, Spa, numerous Restaurants, etc?

In further support of the current stand following text of "WikiProject Amusement Parks" is pasted here for your quick referrencce which gives another reason that why it is extremely important for Dreamworld Pakistan to have its own individual identification on Wikipedia: Project scope The ultimate goal of this WikiProject is to improve the quality of articles relating to amusement and theme parks. In order to accomplish this goal, Wikipedia will need an article on every amusement park in the world (as well as parks that are no longer operating) as well as articles on everything related to amusement parks. This includes, types of rides (ie. log flumes, roller coasters, carousels, etc.), people involved in developing rides and amusement parks and actual ride installations.

Now, if Dreamworld Pakistan will not have the page here than how will it participate in the above existing project of Wikipedia.

Another reason: Following text is pasted from Dreamworld Australia page which is very promotional than Dreamworld Pakistan: Dreamworld is a large theme park situated on the Gold Coast in Queensland. It is currently Australia's largest theme park with over 27 rides including 4 roller coasters. The park is made up of several themed lands: Ocean Parade, Nick Central, Wiggles World, Gold Rush Country, Rocky Hollow, Tiger Island and the Australian Wildlife Experience. These lands feature a collection of rides, animal exhibits, shows, food outlets and merchandise shops.[1] Dreamworld is well known for being the location of the Australian Big Brother House for 8 years. In December 2006, Dreamworld expanded its offerings by opening WhiteWater World next door.[2] Numerous times throughout the year, Dreamworld remains open after dark. This event, known as Screamworld, features all thrill rides and a selection of children's rides.

Autopatrolled

edit

If you have autopatrolled rights, then the page does not show up in the new pages or as an unpatrolled page highlighted in yellow. Theoretically, the page wouldn't get marked for speedy deletion because new page patrollers would not see it. In all honesty with no sarcasism, am I correct? Thanks for your time. Mìthrandir (talk) 23:41, 28 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

New page patrollers would not see it on Special:Newpages, but it would still be visible on Special:Recentchanges and other areas. Autopatrolled is not a way to evade the speedy deletion criteria. Nakon 23:45, 28 January 2011 (UTC)Reply
What would be the advantages of using it then? (I am not trying to be smart, just trying to get help) Thanks. Cheers... Mìthrandir (talk) 00:09, 29 January 2011 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Allen Brothers

edit

Please reconsider your deletion of Allen Brothers. The article was created by someone with a COI. It was tagged for speedy deletion, and I excised the promotional content. From the Google cache, I note that there is a citation from the Wall Street Journal. A Google News Archive search also confirms that the company is notable. I ask that you undelete the article since it is notable and no longer promotional. Thanks, Cunard (talk) 09:35, 2 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Deletion of my wiki

edit

Why did you delete my wiki on Minecraft Maps?

I spent so much time on it! Could you please be more specific?

Thank you, the hard working, Casper Bezemer, creator of Minecraft Maps. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CsprBzmr (talkcontribs) 22:06, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

The page was deleted as spam. If you are affiliated with the subject, a conflict of interest exists and it's strongly suggested that you not edit or create articles on the subject. Nakon 22:08, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Wasn't it informational then? Did you even read it? I do not want to be or even sound impolite here, but I think you are just authoritarian, and kind of overuse your power by deleting innocent wiki pages because they are the work of small, innocent, beginning web developers, who just want to create a basic knowledge, history and status base just like mine, on Minecraftmaps.net.

Could you please reconsider actually reading it, and being a little less harsh in your decisions whether to delete a page or not. I was not aware of any violation in any way, and deleting it this instantly, without further information or help given is not a humane thing.

Please be more tolerable in the future, and if you still can, read my article, and decide whether it really is as much 'spam' as you say it is. :) Yours Sincerely, Casper Bezemer — Preceding unsigned comment added by CsprBzmr (talkcontribs) 22:20, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

I'm sorry for my burst out there, man, but I seriously think you should consider being more mild in deciding if something is spam or not. I spent one and a half hour on that wiki page, and then one person, which in this case is you, Nakon, instantly deletes my hard and totally innocent work. You could at least have given me a warning first, instead of instantly destroying it. But again, my apologies, I'm not a hateful person! :) CsprBzmr (talk) 22:37, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

question

edit

Hi i just made a page for the first time. why was it deleted?

Please see the biography guidelines. Nakon 20:04, 12 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Talk:Grimmeh I dispute this decision, because A. It is not false information. B. It is about a character that does exist on IMVU, it is not a hate page . And they are "famous" on that website. I want to make a page on them, I feel it is just. This is free encyclopedia, and Grimmeh is a section of it I doubt will /ever/ be used, thus is harming nobody. There is far worse pages that have NEVER been deleted which hate on people who are physically disabled or mentalled challenged like "TsimFuckis", a whole page of slander about a poor physically challenged child who is trying to make better of himself by placing humor on it so he can have some sort of peace with himself.Every word I posted about the character I spoke about is true, I have the users permission to post such things about him, I do not see why it needs to be deleted especially when I am granted the individuals permission.
