New Page Review - Newsletter No.4
Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 799 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that!
But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag. Make use of the message feature to let the creator know about your maintenance tags. See the tutorial again HERE. Get help HERE.

remove "Georges Romme" page
Hi Theroadislong: I noted the notability issue inserted on the page on Georges Romme. I'm the subject of this page (and also a contributor to wikipedia). I fully agree with your observation/comment.
I suggest you delete the page entirely. Can you do that, or have it done? (I do not have the authority to do so.)
a few questions about the page I'm constructing
Sir,
Thank you for your careful attention to my page about Dave Bradley. I am sorry to cause you so much work--I've never done this and I'm not a good writer. If you don't mind I have few quick questions.
Unreferenced puffery--this is my lack of skill. I failed to get across the significance of this person. He is known everywhere in neuroscience--and diabetes--as having a rare kind of creativity. He hops from one profession to another, each time with exceptional success. After ten years absent, his neuroscience papers are increasingly cited. This is rare; typically the citation rate falls to nothing in ten years.
That, of course, is puffery. I did try to present tangible things, awards and such, but I'm not sure how to reference them. He has the original invitation to meet the Queen at the museum opening. To have an exhibit in the world's largest science museum is significant, which is why I included it. The invitation is all I have to go on.
How should I reference his influences? With their location, or perhaps some of their papers?
Thank you again for your attention.

- I'm afraid that, like many others, you have misunderstood what Wikipedia is about. It is an encyclopaedia, which summarises what independent sources have published about subjects. Creating an article is one of the most difficult things to do on Wikipedia, creating one when you have a conflict of interest is doubly difficult, creating one without reliable sources is just impossible I'm afraid. You need to establish notability by adding references that show there is indepth, widespread coverage of him in reliable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 16:29, 23 May 2017 (UTC)
response to comments on COI
Thank you for your helpful comments.
I work near, previously for, Bradley, but I'm not really his friend. No hostility, but I'm not updating this page out of affection. Patrick Kennedy recruited Bradley to speak publicly about mental illness, so our boss (Daniel Goldin) said someone should update his stub. Bradley can't do it, so I got volunteered. Luckily I had help from (forgot the name) an editor who trimmed down all the melodramatic stuff. The page, as it is, isn't much longer or more elaborate than the stub, but it has a picture now and some words about his career.
I saw a comment about Bradley being fond of the awards, and how that shouldn't matter. In that spirit, I might just take it out.
Thank you again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dandh8 (talk • contribs) 16:55, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Hi Theroadislong!
Nice to meet you and thanks for reviewing my Wikipedia article so quickly. Can you please advise what exactly do I need to correct in my article, so it will be accepted? What wasn't good enough? Thanks and waiting for your response. - Anastasiia09 (talk) 09:40, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
- Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, which summarises what independent sources have published about subjects and has essentially no interest in what anybody says or wants to say about themselves or their company, on Wikipedia we need reliable sources independent of the subject.Blogs, your own website and press releases are not suitable sources. Theroadislong (talk) 12:52, 19 May 2017 (UTC). Theroadislong (talk) 12:52, 19 May 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response, @Theroadislong:. I understand it is required to have reliable and independent sources. My question is, how many of them do you require? Can you please look at the references of Draft:Maytech once again, and check the source №1 (Digital Marketplace lists all suppliers that can provide services to the government). Do these 3 sources I listed count as reliable and independent? They are not enough because my article is not very short? - Anastasiia09 (talk) 11:28, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
- Yes those sources are fine, but all the other content needs reliable sources too, that's what wikipedia does, it summarises what the independent reliable sources say about a subject. Better to make the article much shorter with better references. Theroadislong (talk) 11:41, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
- Good morning @Theroadislong:. I just had a look at the article about Google Drive, to the Features section: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Drive#Features.

Techtonica.org
Hello, I respectfully request that my deleted page be restored so that I may continue working on it.
I wish to add information on two news articles about Techtonica.org. Our second news article is in the works and we will have a date of publication in a few weeks (Jared Jones of Upworthy is one of them.)
I have spent the morning reading on neutral POV and notability and have bookmarked the Wiki Game for tonight when I get home. I can see that I have much to learn and I want you to know that I am up for it.

notability
Hi,
The "notability" tag suggests news and interviews. Please note that I listed a highly prestigious interview with the Chronicle of Higher Education, and two news articles about Bradleys papers, one from Nature, the other from Science.
Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dandh8 (talk • contribs) 01:40, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
- Interviews are not normally considered reliable sources. Notability requires verifiable evidence, Sources of evidence include recognized peer-reviewed publications, credible and authoritative books, reputable media sources, and other reliable sources generally. See WP:WHYN. The references you have provided mostly link to PDF files on his website these are not suitable. Theroadislong (talk) 08:53, 26 May 2017 (UTC)
What?
Hi You told me off on my talk page? Huh? I read some of the other talks and it seems you correct people, which is a good job, but I made sure not to write social media related things. What have I done? I think you need to say more about what people have done wrong in your corrections, because otherwise it gets unclear.

I've been instructed not to edit Dr. Bradley's page. May I please request that the reference to Justia.com be changed to

External Links and Secondary Sources Margareta Boivin article
I would like to know what to you mean by External Link as I can see many celebrity has their own External Links(title) example are Celine Dion, Britney Spears, Metallica etc.
also the secondary sources, the only none secondary source used in Margareta Boivin article is her website all the other source are secondery sources. Sebastienb06 (talk) 15:24, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

I do not understand why this article was rejected due to "unreliable sources" Sur and El Mundo are two of the best newspapers in Spain. I have seen other articles (the same topic) with no ref. I think the reviewer is being subjective.
- Please readWP:NFILM and WP:NFO. To presume notability, reliable sources should have significant coverage. It is difficult to gauge the coverage as it's all in Spanish. A Spanish speaking reviewer might help?Theroadislong (talk) 14:22, 31 May 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Brunei Subaqua Diving Club BSADC,for REVIEW
Hi TRIL
I have to almost laugh at this situation. Sorry I am very new to Wiki and this is my first attempt.
I understand the problem that has been raised BUT the FUNNY side is Wiki has got it backwards All the text/material I have used is mine and i the author and copyright holder of it all. I have posted all of this text and material to OUR/MY website WWW.BSADC.COM at various time.
The site that is cited in the msg I got ""This page appears to be a direct copy from http://www.dtb.com.bn/blue-water-wreck/. F""
Is in itself correct - it does say appears!!!!!
Well the reason is they have plagiarised my ww.bsadc.com site, text, indian ink drawings and all.
I am actually not surprised that this site has done so. There are many that have, some with verbal permission, many know me or club and used without asking, or just straight good old plagiarised.
If you use copyright / plagiarised auto search software I/you will have this problem a lot. Our Site was is the Original source and it (and our book for that matter) have been copied by more sites that I can mention.. With the exception of a new Diving Artist on the scene last couple of year who is doing new sketches of all the wrecks..-- Any sketch you see of the American, Blue water, Australian Wreck are all off our site. One or two have been retouched up dated but on our originals.
The same applies to MOST text you see on these wrecks it is either a direct copy or an edit version of our writeups.
Ok I think I have given you the information necessary.
Now what do I do from here ???
I CAN'T PUBLISH BECAUSE LOADS OF OTHER SITE HAVE PUBLISHED MY WORK I do ALMOST see the funny side.

Editing Erin Hills
Hello Theroadislong,
I AM the person, Brenda Williams who designed the logo. I talk about the inspiration and the design BEHIND the logo. No one would know that but me, since I was the creative person on this project. When I explain this story to people lately they find this fascinating and that is why I am adding it also the US Open will be there in a couple of weeks and this will be looked at I would assume more.
Closest source would be at Cite error: There are <ref>
tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).ElliottWilliamsDesign.comCite error: There are <ref>
tags on this page without content in them (see the help page). where the logo is shown.
Sorry, I am new to this. Thanks for your kind help.

- In which case you should absolutely NOT be adding the material at all. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, which summarises what independent sources have published about subjects and is not a place to promote your own work. If the logo design has been reported on in sources unconnected to you then it might be possible to add a line by providing the source on the articles talk page, you should not add any content yourself as you have a clear conflict of interest.

About musicologist Paul-Gilbert Langevin
Hello Theroadislong, It's been one month since the page about Paul-Gilbert Langevin has been added to the category "conflict of interest". I would like to know if the problem has been solved and the page cleaned, corrected and verified. The same page in other languages does not cite the same problem. Paul-Gilbert Langevin, who passed away in 1986, is still considered by other musicologists as the specialist of Anton Bruckner and Franz Schubert's works in Europe. Thank you to give me information about how to solve the problem if it is not done yet. Kind regards, Paul-Eric Langevin (talk) 21:15, 04 June 2017 (UTC)

about removing pronunciations in "Dhaka"
Thank you sir for your assistance.The pronunciations are wrong as far as I think .

Hi Theroadislong. Thank you for reviewing my article. I have made a few edits but I'd like to know how else I can improve. The reason for rejection states, "independent, reliable, published sources." My article includes 18 sources that are independent published sources. Is there a better way to incorporate these to be given acceptance for my article? Are there specific areas of this article that read more like propaganda than encyclopedia? My aim is to write a factual article about this notable company with over 67 years of history. I plan to add more of that history in the future.

Draft:Robert_Ferguson is not an autobiography
Thank you for your message regarding the Wikipedia policy on submitting autobiographies. My article about Robert L. Ferguson is not an autobiography. I created an account with the name RLFerguson to submit an article about him, but I am Sallie J. Ortiz, a freelance science and energy writer. Robert Ferguson has been a significant influence and lifelong promoter of nuclear technology for peaceful uses in both the government and private industry. I foresee that I will be able to add more documented material about his work in producing the vital medical isotope, Mo99, using a much safer method than currently exists.

In Line citations for David J. Marshall, Jr.
Hi Theroadislong, Please let me know where you need to see in line citations in the article I posted about my late father. Please let me know what it needs and I'll be happy to accommodate. Thanks, John J. MarshallJJMarshall1961 (talk) 18:24, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
- Each sentence requires a source. But you first need to show that he meets Wikipedia's requirements for notability - basically, it appears there has not been enough material published about him to base an article on. (Wikipedia has no interest in what you or I know or think about him, and little interest in what he or his associates have said or published: it is only interested in what people unconnected with him have published about him in reliable places such as major newspapers).

I am enquiring to determine the exact reasons behind the TrustATrader page firstly, being removed, and secondly, being marked for Speedy Deletion. I must clarify that I am not in any way associated with TrustATrader or any kind of agency trying to use the wikipedia page to promote the brand or increase its search rankings. If this is the main reason for the article being marked for Speedy Deletion, please can this be noted. Of course, I am not sure what has happened in the past regarding possible previous attempts to create this page for marketing purposes, but this is certainly not the case in this instance.
I would also like some clarification as to what parts of the content are being deemed as 'advertising'. I have made one revision in which I removed quite a bit of content, which after review, may have been deemed as 'advertising'. Another wikipedia page - Rated people, is in a similar field to TrustATrader, and looking at their page, I cannot see stark differences between the two regarding content. All of the content on the TrustATrader page is entirely encyclopedic using good sources. If you are able to give me some further information as to what sections of the page need editing, I will make sure to look at the content and work on it further to make sure it is not deemed as 'advertising'. Thank you. JosephCaley (talk) 08:37, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you, I have nominated Rated people for deletion as it appears to be a non notable company. You would have to ask the users who deleted the article why they thought it was advertising, I cannot see it as I'm not an admin. Theroadislong (talk) 13:01, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

decline Deborah Claire Procter
Thanks Therodislong. I'm happy that wikipedia is so exigent - that's what makes it so important. I've trimmed this biography to respond to where citation was not possible. For instance Creative Wales Award is very prestigious but they do not have any online record of members at this stage. I intend to speak to them about this and will re add when they provide a reference point. Also some older newspapers and local newspapers do not maintain online records so I have also cut those references to make it easier. Please note that four newspapers from Argentina are referenced which are the big four (just like in the UK there is the Guardian, Telegraph and Times). Where in the world are you from? I wonder if you just didn't release that these newspapers are so important - there is no reason you would have to know. Federico Monjeau and Diego Fischerman are the most famous music critics in Argentina therefore it would seem that significance has been demonstrated. Wales Arts International also do not maintain online records so for convenience those references have also been removed. Happy to keep tweaking for accuracy, however I think now it is substantially improved and therefore demonstrates the requisites. I appreciate your spirit of excellence and wish you a good weekend.

Pontius Pilate talk page
Hi, you accused me of "disruptive editing" of the Pontius Pilate talk page. I don't think this is a fair accusation. I was attempting to communicate with User:HaileyNKim that their joke wasn't funny and it didn't belong on the page. This is more constructive than just deleting what they say as if they were never there. All that is going to do is make them angry and increase any hostility they may have towards wikipedia. I am aware that this is likely the same person vandalising the main Pontius Pilate page. But 5 minutes of calm reflection should be enough to conclude that trying to reach out to them on the article's talk page can only be beneficial. I should reiterate - this is a talk page, it is not meant to look pretty and conform to rules. It is meant to facilitate discussion to improve the article. Woscafrench (talk) 11:53, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

Request on 09:33:55, 3 July 2017 for assistance on AfC submission by DanielleDriveWorks
Hello @Theroadislong:, I got your message about the draft:DriveWorks page being declined as it sounds like an advertisement. Please could you give me some more guidance on which bits are causing it to be declined? This page has been active since 2008 and was only flagged for deletion as I was a new editor (this highlighted there were issues with references). I was advised to establish notability, which I did with guidance from admins and then added more when it was declined by another admin. I removed a lot of the text from the original article and kept it to the bare minimum so it's factual about the software - all of which is backed up with a wide range of independent sources. I'm very lost now as to why it still sounds like an advert and would much appreciate some help from an experienced editor :( Thanks, Danielle DanielleDriveWorks (talk) 09:33, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

- The Methodology section reads like an advert and should probably be removed entirely. The editions section is just promotional and the Version history is also only sourced to their website and not required. Theroadislong (talk) 10:12, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
Hello @Theroadislong:, thanks for your reply. The 'editions' section isn't promotional, but intended to be factual, as there are different types of DriveWorks and they are all seperate pieces of software. 'DriveWorks' isn't just one product, it's several editions which are all different products - some which are included in other software, which is why we broke it down so I don't understand why you think this is promotional? This isn't advertising software, and the section also contains sources to professional engineering magazines speaking about the different software so it's backed up with notable sources.
The version history is purely there so people know which version is the latest one - I can remove the list of past versions if you think it's irrelevant? There aren't any independant sources linked to this as when a new version is released DriveWorks users just tend to go onto the latest one. No-one would ever really need to write about previous editions and any references to old editions are outdated articles (I read the referencing guide related to using very old sources and it said to be cautious).
In the 'methodology' section, I tried to give a general overview of DriveWorks, but I understand why you think it sounds like an advert - sorry about that. If I remove the part from 'The DriveWorks API allows custom plug ins to be written.....' do you think that would make it sound less like an advert? I think some part of this section needs to remain or the article doesn't really explain what DriveWorks is but rather just the impact on the market.
Thanks again for your help and sorry for the long message! :) Danielle DanielleDriveWorks (talk) 12:44, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
- The problems you are having are precisely the reason why it is strongly encouraged that you don't write about yourself or your company. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia, which summarises what independent sources have published about subjects and has essentially no interest in what anybody says or wants to say about themselves or their company, on Wikipedia we need reliable sources independent of the subject.

Hey @Theroadislong:, Ok understood. I will ask for help at the teahouse as I really need some guidance on how I can fix the issues before I re-submit it for review.

About musicologist Paul-Gilbert Langevin
Hello Theroadislong,
This is the message I got from Brian Newbould: "There may be difficulty with the Wikipedia article because you wrote it yourself. You need to get someone outside the family but with knowledge of your father and of the musical world to validate it. They could read it through and say that it is accurate (if they think it is) but perhaps change or add something here and there. I will still ask others about this."
Paul-Eric Langevin (talk) 12:20, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you are asking here? Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that summarizes what independent, reliable sources say about a topic.
You need to establish notability by adding references that show there is widespread coverage of him in reliable sources, we are not interested in what you or anyone else knows about him. Theroadislong (talk) 10:25, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
