March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive
It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:
- This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Wikipedia Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
- Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
- The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
- An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.
Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.
More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.
I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!

Diego, please stop making deletion requests for the article about Nicolas Chaillan. We are actually working on adding new releases as we speak. We've already confirmed his notability and we will improve it in the next 2 weeks. 4 contributors agreed with us and approved this article so please, do not make all our work go away before we have a chance to update it in the next few days? Thank you. --— Preceding unsigned comment added by 167.88.85.97 (talk) 04:20, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
You're better stop modifying the page of Nicolas Chaillan to try to make him look ridiculous or I will make sure he officially contact the Wikipedia Foundation to report your behavior. A 19 years old kid should stay at school and not trying to bother adults. You should listen to me very carefully because this is going to go out of control now. This is my last warning. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tom.lindpen (talk • contribs) 05:09, 3 June 2014 (UTC) |

Estimado Diego ( Vi que usted es de Chile por eso le escribo en español) La fuente de Referencia de este artista Scribd esta escrita y editada por el Instituto Cultural de Providencia , donde pone Biografia de Chilenos destacados, usted la puede ver aqui [[1]], Tiene 6 paginas donde sale todo lo descrito en el articulo antes mencionado. Por favor ver esto que es una fuente primaria del Instituto Cultural de Providencia, donde este artista desarrollo principalmente su Carrera artistica , como lo relata plenamente este articulo La Fuente Angelfire es una web donde solo muestra la obra pictorica de este artista, si ustede considera oportuno se puede eliminar.

Estimado Diego
Por favor reanalizar el borrado propuesto, debido a que en el articulo hay dos referencias que muestran su importancia enciclopedica como critic literario y estas son las siguientes:
[Study on Chilean literature, 1940, foreword Pastene written by M. Correa, October 1940] [History of Literature Illustrated Francisco A. Encina, written by Leopoldo Castedo, vol. 11, pp. 144-152]
Esto usted lo puede colaborar recurriendo a estos textos indicados. En cuanto a la biblioteca del Congreso esta solo muestra algunas obras de este critic literario , pero no asi su biografia que esta en las referencias anteriormente descritas
Muchas gracias y espero su reconsideracion

August 2014
Your recent editing history at David H. Greer shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate 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. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.
To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution.

WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive
Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!
TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.
If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.
At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.
As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

GA Cup
Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!
As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:
For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.
For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).
The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

WikiProject Good Articles - GA Cup
WikiProject Good articles is holding a new competition, the GA Cup, from October 1, 2014 - March 28, 2015. The Cup will be based on reviewing Good article nominations; for each review, points will be awarded with bonuses for older nominations, longer articles and comprehensive reviews. All participants will start off in one group and the highest scoring participants will go through to the second round. At the moment six rounds are planned, but this may change based on participant numbers. Some of you may ask: what is the purpose for a competition of this type? Currently, there is a backlog of about 500 unreviewed Good article nominations, almost an all time high. It is our hope that we can decrease the backlog in a fun way, through friendly competition. Everyone is welcome to join; new and old editors! Sign-ups will be open until October 15, 2014 so sign-up now! If you have any questions, take a look at the FAQ page and/or contact one of the four judges. Cheers from NickGibson3900, Dom497, TheQ Editor and Figureskatingfan. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 19:04, 15 September 2014 (UTC) To receive future GA Cup newsletter, please add your name to our mailing list.

Que Levante La Mano
Hi there Diego Grez, long time no see! I had thought you left Wikipedia a while ago until I saw your move at Hector el Father thanks to the Latin music article log. Anyways, I don't know if you still contribute to Chilean music, but I wanted to bring your attention to Que Levante La Mano where I expanded the article to include information about the original artist who sang it and stuff. Cheers! Erick (talk) 05:33, 22 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hey Erick! I'm sorry I didn't see this earlier, good to see you around too. I'm not that much active nowadays, but still look into my watchlist regularly. Just looked at Que levante la mano, and looks great now that you've expanded it. I'd like to expand the Americo section at some point... maybe in early December, as I'll be done with exams and will have enough spare time to go to the library and read some 2007-2008 newspapers. Regards, Diego Grez (talk) 02:40, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- That would be great! Chile (and a lot of Spanish-speaking countries in South America) are so underrepresented in the project so it'd be good to see diversity. I can upload music samples if you any requests as well. Erick (talk) 02:51, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Curco Vein
Please do not make articles about a living person that are entirely negative in tone and unsourced. Wikipedia has a policy of verifiability and any negative information we use must be reliably sourced, and our articles must be balanced. Negative unreferenced biographies of living people are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create or repost such pages and images in violation of our biographies of living persons policy will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Thank you.
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 "Click here to 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 removed 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. Hoops gza (talk) 16:10, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
- Firstly, you have applied a wrong tag, as Kurt Cobain has been dead since 1994, and so I will ignore the accusations in your automatically-added notification. Curco Vein was, back in 2012 -IIRC- the name given to Kurt Cobain in the form of a meme (in Spanish-speaking countries), in social networks, making fun of his death. Indeed, I don't agree with this mocking, but when I created the redirect I thought it would be useful to use that "stylized" name to point to the article of the aforementioned musician. After all, Curco Vein refers to Kurt Cobain. Diego Grez (talk) 16:41, 3 November 2014 (UTC)
November 2014
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Eugenio Cruz Vargas. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Please be particularly aware that Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made.
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. CambridgeBayWeather, Uqaqtuq (talk), Sunasuttuq 18:43, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

- Hoops gza, you know that Kurt Cobain is dead, right? Everything I said in your previous deletion nomination still stands, and until you get to discuss this "negative in tone" redirect, I will remove the tag, as it is disruptive. --Diego Grez (talk) 00:56, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
What is the relevance of Kurt Cobain's death? Yes, I know that the tag says it is a BLP, however, there is no other tag that covers that fact that this is a negative redirect. How is mocking someone's death not negative? - Hoops gza (talk) 01:00, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
- The tag does not apply, then. You should put it up on redirects for discussion, that's the normal procedure for cases like this. I don't think the redirect itself is mocking Cobain's death (though some people do use it to mock it), someone (Spanish speakers, most likely) may actually search for him, as "Kurt Cobain" is precisely pronounced "Curcovein" in Spanish... --Diego Grez (talk) 01:04, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
Yes, it is mocking. Names are pronounced by the language in which the subject's native language is usually. Cobain spoke English and Cobain is an English-language name. And this is the English Wikipedia. Furthermore, the admin who deleted this the first time around noted "R3: Recently created, implausible redirect: -- unused in English; G10: Negative unsourced BLP". - Hoops gza (talk) 01:29, 8 November 2014 (UTC)
- It was not recently created, it was not implausible, it was not unused in English, and it was not a "biography of a living person", it was a redirect!!! You should have, at least, taken it up at WP:RFD. Diego Grez (talk) 03:11, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

- How I think things happened: some stuff was left over the keyboard of my notebook, selecting the "dTa! OneClick" option of a plugin named DownThemAll!, as I left my computer turned on, with my watchlist on it. It managed to download all of the links of the Watchlist, including those that rollbacked edits. --Diego Grez (talk) 21:11, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
- And come to that, it doesn't explain how "things over its keyboard" could mark all these edits as minor. The 'things' seem to have selected the material to revert, ticked the 'minor edit' box, and then clicked on the 'save' box. Repeatedly... AndyTheGrump (talk) 21:06, 23 November 2014 (UTC)

- @AndyTheGrump: @AmaryllisGardener: All rollbacks are automatically marked as a minor edit. - NQ (talk) 02:41, 24 November 2014 (UTC)
- As far as I can see from the documentation, DownThemAll! does exactly what its name suggests. [7] It mass downloads material to the computer it is running on. It doesn't appear to have a facility making mass reverts on Wikipedia - something that to be automated would presumably require a bot which communicated via the MediaWiki API.

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article El Marino you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Sfs90 -- Sfs90 (talk) 00:02, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
I reviewed this. I struck it out from the DYK list, as it is not in need of a reviewer. Your edit to the contrary is wrong. Perhaps we have had a failure to communicate. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 00:50, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
- See the block notice above, and Diego Grez's recent edit history - the edit was one of a long series of unexplained reverts from this account. AndyTheGrump (talk) 00:59, 23 November 2014 (UTC)
ANI notification
There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. AndyTheGrump (talk) 19:11, 30 November 2014 (UTC)
The article El Marino you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:El Marino for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Sfs90 -- Sfs90 (talk) 23:41, 21 December 2014 (UTC)
DYK for Rebeca Cofré
On 1 January 2014, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Rebeca Cofré, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that in 2013, mayor of Chépica Rebeca Cofré was named one of the 100 Leading Women of Chile by El Mercurio newspaper? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Rebeca Cofré. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

Disambiguation link notification for April 5
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Arauco Province, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lebu (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The article Jacob Soto Araya has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Fails Wikipedia:Notability (sports) guidelines
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles 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 article 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. AndyTheGrump (talk) 23:12, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- Hi Andy, I was about to leave you a message on your talk page, but you came first. I wonder why did you remove the mention to Soto Araya from the school's article, with the surfer's article being well-referenced with sources such as La Segunda. Anyway, it kinda brings me down to have the content removed... Certainly your 'notability' parameters are higher than those I believe. Regards, Küñall (talk) 23:16, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
Conflict of interest, part 2
As you should probably be aware, Wikipedia:Conflict of interest guidelines include "contributing to Wikipedia to promote your own interests, including... your external relationships, such as with family, friends or employers". Since you went to school with entirely non-notable "local surfer" Jacob Soto Araya, I think it is safe to assume that if you aren't promoting him by creating an entirely inappropriate article to promote your former school, you are doing so because he is a friend of yours. Either way, I suggest you accept the proposed deletion I've just made, and find something useful to do on Wikipedia, rather than once again misusing it for your own purposes. Otherwise, I will raise the matter at WP:ANI and ask that you be topic banned from any edits relating to the school, the commune of Pichilemu and any other locality or educational institution you have any connection with. AndyTheGrump (talk) 23:31, 5 April 2014 (UTC)
- Maybe you are misunderstanding things, Andy. Let me clarify: I have not had any contact with him since we left school. I knew he had some sort of surfing career, there were some sources and started the article, that's it. I am not contesting the article's deletion (I would have done it immediately after you proposed it, but I didn't), and, seemingly I will refrain from editing the school's article, because you see everything I do as a conflict of interest, where there is. You will not believe me anyway, I don't blame you, but I will take the easiest path. (By the way, threats are not necessary, discussion is better, isn't it?) Küñall (talk) 23:47, 5 April 2014 (UTC)

I only reverted your edit because rolling back to a previous version was easier than manually editing. I intended to reinstate your addition, but you did it before me, so, apologies. Vanamonde93 (talk) 21:14, 12 April 2014 (UTC)

When making a translation...
Thanks for translating 2014 Valparaíso wildfire from the Spanish article. When you do something like this, you need to document the translation for copyright reasons. I have done so for you this time, but wanted to let you know for future reference. See Template:Translated page for instructions. Thanks, ThaddeusB (talk) 20:37, 13 April 2014 (UTC)
