Belated Thank you! ))) Coffinfly (talk) 21:24, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Coffinfly, could you have a look at commons:User_talk:Jochen_Burghardt#Почему удалили категорию? User Шухрат Саъдиев left me a message there, in Russian language, as I was told by user Darafsh. Since I don't understand Russian, I could only guess what the message is about. Probably Шухрат Саъдиев will have the same problem with my answer (which might be inappropriate, anyway, in case I didn't get his/her question right). Could you help us with translating? You seem to speak both Russian and English language. Many thanks in advance! Best regards - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 19:43, 27 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Coffinfly (talk) 09:34, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks! May I ask you to translate my answer back into Russian? A hint to commons:COM:OVERCAT might be sufficient. There is a Russian translation at commons:Википедия:Категоризация; maybe you can just link the corresponding section from my talk page. Thanks again! - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 20:11, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Any time! Translation into Russian is also done. commons:Википедия:Категоризация apparently doesn't exist, but I added a link to another article (ru:Википедия:Категоризация). Coffinfly (talk) 21:22, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Once more many thanks! - Jochen Burghardt (talk) 23:46, 12 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

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. Randykitty (talk) 12:29, 22 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Dear Randykitty, I strongly disagree with the tagging/speedy deletion of the Journal of Management & Administration page and with your reasoning that the page was unambiguous advertising (?! - any proof of that?) and only promoting a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view. I've familiarised myself with your view point on academic journals, but my opinion on their notability is a bit different (predatory journals excluded). In any case, please let me have the deleted material. Thank you and best regards, Mike Coffinfly (talk) 14:03, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Hi, thanks for reaching out. I had a second look at the article and still feel it was too promotional. Obviously, the deleting admin agreed with me. I've seen that you posted the same message on {{u|Seraphimblade]]'s talk page and completely agree with their remarks. In addition, even if you'd produce a neutrally-worded article, I doubt that it would stay as it does not appear to meet our inclusion criteria (see [[WP:NJournals and
  WP:GNG; according to MIAR, the journal is not included in any database, let alone a selective one). --Randykitty (talk) 18:17, 23 February 2023 (UTC)[reply

Hallo, ElKevbo, thank you for welcoming, I'm contributing to Wikipedia since 2008, so before this COI nonsense started; however, I've updated my user page. I'd appreciate it if you remove the Category:User talk pages with conflict of interest notices tag. Coffinfly (talk) 06:45, 12 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
