Did you really review [[Jamaluddin Al-Jailani]]? For starters, it lacks a lead section (you could have tagged it with {{tl|Lead missing}}), the section "[[Jamaluddin Al-Jailani#Name|Name]]" is a downright html mess. Most importantly, if you had googled some bits and pieces, you might have found that this article is basically a copy of the page [[Abdul-Qadir Gilani]], upon which someone slapped the name Jamaluddin Al-Jailani. Of course, copying from Wikipedia is allowed, but in other cases, the source could have just as well been copyrighted. |

Request on 18:06:41, 29 April 2016 for assistance on AfC submission by Slothbearina
- Slothbearina (talk · contribs)
Hi
Thanks for reviewing my draft of an article on the artist Moritz Götze.
It was rejected - despite me providing references from a wide range of sources, as required. This time the reviewer's objection was that the artist's work needed to be in major collections.
However, this was never mentioned as a prerequisite the first couple of times. I feel this is unfair. Will there be a different kind of objection every time I try to meet the requirements.
Please, check the article again. Once it is up, many more people will contribute and add descriptions of the artist's notability.
Thanks!
Still hopeful,

19:05:41, 29 April 2016 review of submission by MarkDPrindle
- MarkDPrindle (talk · contribs)
I'm not requesting a re-review. I just have a quick question. Is the editor saying that I need more major sources (like Wall Street Journal, Forbes and TechCrunch), more sources overall (meaning that more financial/banking trades would be fine), or both? And what number of sources (major and overall) would be sufficient to show notability?
Thank you in advance!
- MarkDPringle, I've independently looked at this, and I see no clear evidence of notability. The only substantial article is the one in the Independent. I consider it however the evident product of public relations--essentially a slightly disguised press release, and everything else is an unambiguous press release, or a mere notice. Techchruch is prone to publish material on new and non notable startup companies, and is not a discriminating source--and even it it describes the firm as "Credorax, a small startup" I could judge the likelihood of your being able to find adequate sources would probably depend on the size of the bank, and I see no financial information: that's pretty basic in an article about a financial institution.
- But even more important, since I note you have written on no other topic, is the question of possible conflict on interest. Please see our rules, at WP:COI, and, if they in fact do apply, make the necessary declaration. See also our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure.

19:13:15, 29 April 2016 review of submission by Thy12
Hi SwisterTwister !!!
I made on the changes on the Draft for GreatApps.com which was eliminating the multiple URL's which was links to credible new sources that mentioned the company and its owner.
I am a little confused on the last remaining issue. Meaning, the links that were there before did come large media outlets which verified the company and the person (in terms of topic of conversation). This translated to different links from different sources. Thus, I am bit confused as to why then this would not be added to Wiki. I am sure you get this often, but I have seen countless items listed in Wiki that have no support whatsoever. At least for my post I did provide it.
Any guidance outside the standard template or reconsideration would be really helpful.
Thank you !!! Thy

- Thy12, since SwisterTwister seems a little busy at the moment, I've made an independent review of the draft. I see no notability, and no likelihood of there being sources to show it. The TNW reference is an obvious press release, saying whatever the firm wants them to say. The Crunchbase and alexa items are just directory listings, and cannot be used to show notability.
- Please see also our rules on Conflict of Interest, at WP:COI, and our Terms of Use, particularly with respect to paid contributions without disclosure As you have written on no other topic, they might possibly apply. DGG ( talk ) 19:30, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
- You are quite right that there are several hundred thousand articles in WP accepted in earlier years when the standards were lower that we need to either upgrade or remove. The least we can do is not add to them.
A kitten for you!

I hope you stay
I'm sorry to hear that you are considering retiring, and sorry that I had to subject you to a deletion review this morning, on what seems to have been a bad day for you in other ways. I often encounter your engagement with AfDs, and have always considered your contributions to be valuable. I hope that you decide to stick around for the long term, even if you take a break.

emails
David, I am not receiving your emails, just a note that they have been sent. I have sent you an email giving my email address. Please email me from outside WP. If you haven't gotten it, let me know on my talk p. (I do not know why it isnt working--other email from WP is reaching me OK.) DGG ( talk ) 04:01, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
- But in response to what you have probably asked me, certainly don't become discouraged. Just go a little slower and do a little less. You are qwuite good at what you do, but you are sometimes trying to do more than any one person can properly manage. DGG ( talk ) 04:41, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

I have revised the entry and wanted to ensure it was resubmitted for approval properly. Thanks!
Take a look at this article
Hello! Have been researching about people that should have Wikipedia article, and has been creating articles with research (you can look at my contributions), however, I invite you to look at my latest article Delilah Alvares, if anything can be added, will like to receive a feedback from you! You are a nice contributor from Wikipedia, looking to get a longterm friend relation via Wikipedia with you. Nonetheless, check the article. OGfromtheGut (talk) 21:16, 30 April 2016 (UTC)

Hello there, Thank you so much for all of your help! The sources used are from reputable news outlets including MTVNews, Billboard, Vibe Magazine and XXL Magazine. I also wanted to mention that the collaborations alone are with very well established names in the hip hop industry, I hope you reconsider the validity and find that Joey is more than worthy of an introduction through Wikipedia. His manager and I are hoping to have this taken care of quickly, as a press release is about to announce Joey's next tour, which will generate even more sources! I hope all of the citations are up to the standard, thanks again for everything your consideration!!JJBlvcklist (talk) 00:56, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
Please do not do that
Please do not unilaterally blank out articles and make a redirect. There are articles for airline frequent flyer programs. That is standard Wikipedia. See AAdvantage, MileagePlus, etc. Whiskeymouth (talk) 05:19, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
Draft you declined got created anyway
Draft:Discovery and development of memantine and related compounds; uncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonists. The day after you declined it, the author, User:Tinktura1, cloned the content to Discovery and development of memantine and related compounds. That editor appears to have been a hit'n'run contributor, in keeping with a concern you raised when declining. Any thoughts about PROD vs AFD vs "meh, don't care"? DMacks (talk) 05:38, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, I may consider deletion here soon. Certainly not the first time I've seen that and certainly not the last. SwisterTwister talk 05:52, 1 May 2016 (UTC)

Hoax Governor of Jefferson
I just want to know how that is a hoax because they are actually getting Counties to join and vote for the state of Jefferson to be formed and it's not a hoax there Facebook and soj51.net is where I got everything from I make sure to get facts before posting so are you stupid or just rude about 51st state sorry for calling you stupid but I don't get how it's a hoax
- I searched and nothing better suitable such as news, Facebook and other user generated websites are not solid enough for Wikipedia to accept. SwisterTwister talk 02:38, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Hello SwisterTwister,
Isn't a link to the outcome of the deletion debate supposed to be included on the article's talk page? Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:58, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Hey, I need your help. I saw something on the page that's about me (Patrik Jensen) that needs to be taken out. I signed up for a wiki account just to find someone to help me, and I saw that you had been editing something on "my" page. That's why Im contacting you for help. I have a problem with stalkers and I need my address to be removed from my page (english version) asap. Thanks.
When that is done, would it be ok to also remove this thread here? Thanks again
Also, I dont know what the hell Im doing on these talk-pages so please excuse me for any violations or breaches of protocol. I just needed help with this one thing Felixation (talk) 07:55, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

How to add sources citation, reference, although the article is own self made

When reviewing new articles
Hi SwisterTwister. When reviewing new articles, please take the time to skim them and see if you can tell if they are a copyright violation. I ask you to do this because CorenSearchBot is not operating at present, and neither is the search engine function of Earwig's tool. A good way to locate copyright violations is to perform a Google search on snippets of suspicious-looking prose. You can also ask Earwig's tool to perform a match-up for you on existing links on the page. If you need any help with this, please let me know. Thanks, — Diannaa (talk) 18:26, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Page redirected with blank content
Dear SwisterTwister, The content of the page I created has been deleted and redirected to another page. I understand if you want me to review the content but where can I do that? LittleHelper8 (talk) 09:36, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
I have deleted a paragraph that sounded too promotional and reinstated the article. 202.40.244.196 (talk) 11:18, 3 May 2016 (UTC)
Reviewer, thanks for your time reviewing this proposed article. I have added two references from Forbes and one from Reuters. Hope they fit your requirement of notability.

I'd better do it again, so would yopu please be more specific about what, in your humble opinion, is not worthy or notable enough in the contribution for Victoria Nixon. I would have thought, as a previous reviewer had aid that her modelling career in itself makes her notable. four tildes (Thedreamsociety (talk) 14:25, 3 May 2016 (UTC)).
Undo of Unbiased disambiguation page
Hi,
You were a little bit vague with your reason for undoing the revision to the "unbiased" page redirect - you said "Still not enough". Does this mean that disambiguation require more meanings applied to the term? And if so how many do you think would be deemed sufficient or relevant enough before a disambiguation becomes the better tool to use?
Thanks!

NPP Jamaluddin Al-Jailani
Did you really review Jamaluddin Al-Jailani? For starters, it lacks a lead section (you could have tagged it with {{Lead missing}}), the section "Name" is a downright html mess. Most importantly, if you had googled some bits and pieces, you might have found that this article is basically a copy of the page Abdul-Qadir Gilani, upon which someone slapped the name Jamaluddin Al-Jailani. Of course, copying from Wikipedia is allowed, but in other cases, the source could have just as well been copyrighted.
I see that you have made it to WP:ANI recently and I have warned you about this before in February. Please take your time to properly review articles; follow a checklist if necessary. Let me remind you of the big red warning message at WP:NPP:
It is important to patrol correctly and seriously. The sheer volume of articles created is immense. Even a few percentage points more of erroneous or bitey patrolling can adversely affect hundreds of articles or deter many new users a day. It is critical that editors don't patrol sloppily nor treat it as a game or contest. |
