Gephi

Seems strange that you'd boilerplate straight to Speedy Deletion when I actually spent the time and energy to discuss the fact that an earlier version of this article had already been deleted and that the new article, given its reference to all that Gephi's been used for in the year and a half since that article, makes for a substantial difference. So, I'd appreciate it if you'd amend your Speedy Deletion justification to take that into account and I assume you'll have a little more engagement in the Talk page rather than a similar boilerplate response.

James Haskell

Can you please revisit your reversion of my edit? All I did was a copy edit - I didn't change the substance of what the other editor wrote. I can't even follow your edit summary. If you disagree with the other editor's interpretation of the cited source, then please reword it. At the moment, it's just poorly written, including a contraction and the lack of a space between two words. I have a feeling you know more about the sport than I do (I know nothing), so I'd rather you fix it.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:37, 27 November 2011 (UTC)


Russell Kane

Regarding the modification of Russel Kane's birthday. The source is incorrect. He was both Russel Grineau in 1975. Once source for this is http://everything.explained.at/Russell_Kane/.

This article also alludes to the fact that he is actually 36. http://www.guardian.co.uk/stage/2011/sep/18/russell-kane-interview — Preceding unsigned comment added by ADoveFlew (talkcontribs) 07:40, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

The everything explained article is taken from the Wikipedia article as it explains at the bottom of the page as such is not a reliable source. The Guardian article you quote above says ". Now 31 – though some press cuttings suggest he's 36". noq (talk) 09:22, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

I've declined the speedy deletion on the grounds that it is possible that the hoax story might be notable enough for an article in and of itself. However, I've also sent the article to AfD. Your comments are welcome. -- Blanchardb -MeMyEarsMyMouth- timed 14:55, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

veritaspaideia

I have the copy of Let History Judge, and believed it was worthy because it is written by a semi-prominent figure. He was Roy Medvedev, I'm sure you've read, but I am not all that good at creating an article itself. If you have any ideas on how to do an article on a book, I would love to hear them - Thanks. unitas (talk) 15:13, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

For a book to have its own article it must be shown to be
notable in its own right. Please read the notability guidelines to see what is required. It is also a good idea to read the links provided in the Welcome section on your own talk page. noq (talk

Madrid C's notability

I am not much on speed with WP rules, but your tag of notability does not apply here. Please use the corect tag. I am asking, as I do with all the other editors who wants to delete the RMC page, why did you pick this page, but not the other reserve team pages? Raul17 (talk) 17:37, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

I would suggest reading WP:notability - how does the team meet that? As for why I tagged it rather than others - I did not come across any others - If I had and they did not show notability I would similarly tag them. noq (talk) 17:58, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
You misunderstood. According to this statement:"It is not intended that this guideline should apply to sports clubs and teams; for these the specific notability guideline is
WP:ORG
", the tag you used does not apply. Again, I am not argueing that I proved notability, but that this was the wrong tag to use.
In general, I am not sure how I can prove a club's notability if does not play in a "professional" league. As an amateur entity in the 1950s & 1960s, this team were national amateur champions. The site I found this infomation, is no longer active so I can prove this fact. No disrespect, but I find it amusing that other editors can find technical errors, eg fair use of an image, and I ask if other (reserve) team pages comply and no one comes any of the others!! Again, no disrespect, but it is just so mind-blowing that I think RMC just being hated on! Thank you 21:18, 2 January 2012 (UTC)
I have modified the tag to remove the sport specific link. As I stated before, I tagged this article because I came across it. Not having come across any of the other pages you refer to I cannot comment on the notability or not - although I would expect them to have difficulty. noq (talk) 21:26, 2 January 2012 (UTC)

Artemis Accounts

Hi NOQ,

I see that you reversed my changes to the "Comparison of accounting software" page because of lack of notability. As it is just a table of accounting packages, I'd like some guidance on how I can meet this requirement.

GrumpyMike GrumpyMike (talk) 18:36, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi Grumpy,

In order for it to be listed it should have its own article on Wikipedia - and for that you need to show that it is

WP:notable using independent WP:reliable sources. I see you have started on this in your own userspace but you will need to get independent sources - not just the companies own website. noq (talk

Hi NOQ,

I understand your reasoning for marking this article as non-notable - I have to admit I was unsure so used other similar (competitor) pages as a yard-stick and found it to be similar. Have read WP:notability and its still a judgement call probably down to which side of Inclusionism vs Deletionism you are on.

I've been looking at them trying to understand the industry and have no affiliation with the company - hence added a page as it seemed useful. The company would be well known to pretty much every university library and every publisher in the world. It is in the news a lot (but admittedly in publishing circles only which doesn't make it onto the web as much as some industries (ironically)). I felt it was notable because of these things.

Have added some more sources I know about that are online (bloomsberg, and others) and will improve as I can. I've deleted the delete flag - but will add it back myself if I don't find some more evidence of notability. If you feel so strongly that it must be deleted faster then add it back.


Jon — Preceding unsigned comment added by JonPoley (talkcontribs) 17:33, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi Jon, online references are not necessary, so if you have some you can add them in. The independent refs you have added so far do not really seem to establish notability - one appears to be from a press release and the other is a directory entry. If you decide that you can't find appropriate refs then please add {{db-g7}} to the top of the article to request it be deleted. noq (talk) 18:24, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Clarification on AfD

Hey there, I realized after I made the edit that the AfD bit wasn't quite right (I assumed a "proposed deletion" was an "article for deletion")... But anyway, shouldn't PROD templates be removed only with justification or after a change has been made to correct the original complaint in the proposal? -- MacAddct1984 (talk • contribs) 19:52, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

They should be but there is no requirement for it. Just removing it without addressing the concerns will usually mean that it gets replaced by a full afd which cannot just be removed. noq (talk) 19:56, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Please be particularly aware, Wikipedia's policy on edit warring states:

  1. Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made; that is to say, editors are not automatically "entitled" to three reverts.
  2. 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.

Delinking

Hi, You have delinked the link I created here[1]. I created that link because I am translating the relevant French article at present. It makes more sense to create the necessary links before I upload the article. It would be rather impossible or extremely difficult to find the necessary articles after I have uploaded. That was the reason why I created the link. It is also my understanding that Wiki Red supports that (of course in accordance with other policies) unless there is something else I missed. Please revert your edits as I translate these articles. Thank you. Tamsier (talk) 11:26, 4 March 2012 (UTC)

Bradley Barritt - Rhodesian/English Parents

Hi, just curious why you have changed that part on the BB article twice. The citation it links to makes no reference to any parenthood. I don't have a problem with it either way but the way that part of the article 'that Barritt has an English passport thanks to Rhodesian parents' (true or not) doesn't make as much sense as it would do if he had English parents.

Anyway, can we find a citation for that? If not perhaps it could be re-written.

Hi Noq! Thanks for your continuous effort to improve wikipedia. The present information on Next What's In is incomplete and partially correct. It actually appears incorrect as of now. I tried to complete it with more information providing details of the contents etc. The history is also partially correct. I have mostly quoted what editors of different national and international papers have written or spoken of and all the reliable and verifiable references have also been given. I request you to edit the problem areas (delete the words, sentences or part of it) to improve the artcile but don't delete it completely. Even the image has been removed which is supported by varifiable references. Kindly help in improving this article as per wiki policies and do not simply delete it.

The tag is to highlight that it lacks references to significant coverage in independent reliable sources. The references given are either not independent, or not significant. Press releases, directory entries etc do not establish notability. noq (talk) 08:46, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
Oh. Then I would've put a "lacks refs" template on it instead of "notability", since 1) that is more specific to the problem, and 2) a two-second search of the internet or google books etc. could establish that is a real concern. But you tagging/deleting people have your own logic etc.

The book is based on self analysis and is supported by proper research and learnings from management and real life experiences. Also supported by relevant sources. 3) The book has 19 chapters divided into 4 sections 1) build up to the concept 2) Concept 3) Practical implications 4) designing the future. Also supported by reliable sources. 4) It is the world's first book on dissolving the boxes. Also supported by reliable sources. 5) The book contains real life examples which people can relate to. Also supported by reliable sources. 6) Just check Next What's In, some of the editors have made me a jazz artist which is incorrect and wrong.

Dear Noq - embryonic stem cells

Dear Noq, I read a few days ago the wikipage on embryonic stem cells. I found there was a mistake, as the author had written that people question whether the human embryo is a human life. As I hope you understand this is not being debated, while what is being debated by some is whether it should be granted the moral status of a human being. I hold a MRes in Biology and a PhD in Biomedical and Life Sciences and i am a postoctoral researcher in Neuroscience. I am not being unbalanced as i have a scientific objective approach, while who wrote that statement and who is reverting my corrections is unbalanced towards his own ideas: what I am writing is stated in every embryology book, and who has the authority to talk about what's life in it's eary stages is a Biologist and an Embryologist. I don't understand why my correction is being reverted every time by you or others and find this an offensive act of violence towards my fredom of expression...I hope wikipedia is still a source of knowledge, not of disinformation. Too many people read wikipedia for such gross mistakes to be present. I hope I find in you a contructive attitude.

Cherry Hinton C of E Primary School

Hi, I have added information on why the above article is important in the talk page. Please review the contents and remove deletion tag. If you think more needs to added for making the article notable, please provide suggestions. As the article is about a major govt run school in Cambridge, it should not be difficult to find notable sources. Lakshmi2510 (talk) 19:58, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

This article was created by a new Wikipedia editor. We really need to try and encourage new editors as best as possible rather than scaring them away as per Wikipedia:Please do not bite the newcomers. Consequently I removed the PROD tag that you added to this article to allow time for a civilised discussion to take place with the newcomer on the talk page. I suspect that the ultimate outcome of that discussion would simply have been to merge and redirect the article to the Cherry Hinton page. Taking this article to AfD was somewhat unnecessary as this simply involves extra administrator time and the outcome would have been the same. Could I suggest that in future you adopt a more gentle approach with new Wikipedia editors? We all have to start somewhere. Dahliarose (talk) 11:07, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

Leinster Academy

Hi, I undid your delete of my work on the Leinster Academy. You stated that the academy players are not notable. I completely disagree. Many of these players are of significant interest, many are likely to be internationals in the future given the success rate of that Academy. Many previous graduates now play for Leinster or others sides. Recent Leinster graduates are now playing for Leicester, Cardiff, Munster - some of Europe's top sides. Many never/barely break into the Leinster first team but go straight into top class teams elsewhere. People I believe have an interest in this information. It is referenced and does not detract from the rest of the page.

I do not understand why you would delete someone else's work without any consultation.

Cfs198 (talk) 11:57, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

The current list of Academy players undoubtedly contain some that will become notable in the future - and lots that will not. If they have a professional contract and have played for the first team then they meet the requirements - until then they are not notable and the section as a whole is not notable. Other teams academy members are not listed so why do it for this one team? noq (talk) 12:10, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Not correct, Munster's Academy players have been listed for 2 seasons or so and nobody has thought to delete that. In the case of the 3 Irish Provinces their Academy players are the backbone of their British and Irish Cup sides. That competition also features the entire English Championship. Munster and Leinster were this year's semi-finalists, Munster winning. Therefore the Munster/Leinster A teams, made up primarily of Academy players, are well able for the entire English Championship. Nobody is proposing deleting the Championship squads as not notable. Many in both those Academy's have played senior games, but are not on contracts. Jordi Murphy even has his own page. Half a dozen Munster Academy players were promoted to the senior squad for next season and had their own pages prior to that promotion e.g. (JJ Hanrahan, Luke O'Dea, Dave O'Callaghan. Even though they are only now starting their first professional contracts they were of significant interest to people as they emerged through the past year as players in the A and then First team.

Please read
RaboDirect Pro12? If not, then they are not notable. If a small number have is that a valid reason to add an entire section with mostly non notable players. noq (talk
) 13:15, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for that noq. I have read the link and it refers to articles about notable players. I am not advocating writing an article about any of these players, yet. I am merely listing them. Munster had 5 hookers in their senior squad last year, this year 3. In order to field a second team a member of the academy (e.g. recent

IRB Junior World Championship player James Rael) will likely be called up, or one of the second year Hookers. That is before any injuries are experienced. Gareth Quinn-McDonough spent the second half of last season on loan at Doncaster Knights
, even though he was only a Munster Academy player.

As they make their way into the senior team over the course of the year then they would merit their own article, as 6 players did this month for next season.

FYI Edinburgh also have an Elite Development squad listed on their page. Cfs198 (talk) 14:31, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Notice of Fringe Theories Noticeboard discussion

Hello, Noq. This message is being sent to inform you that there currently is a discussion at Wikipedia:Fringe theories/Noticeboard regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.--WPPilot 04:51, 6 July 2012 (UTC)(talk)

Morrelli, Chance & Hubbart & MacLane

Sir, I think that you are out of line in your quest to have this page deleted. I would like to suggest that you google these men, as it really does not take a great deal of effort to find lots of information about World Class Sailing and the people behind it that has yet to be covered in Wikipedia. The Americas Cup is a large event, that has been going on for a long time now. Sailing is a sport that many people enjoy. I sail, on racing yachts on a regular basis and frankly speaking I knew and sailed with 2 of these men, as a kid, 30 plus years ago. Gino worked with Sail maker Randy Renyolds and Duncan MacLane sailed with me on the "FreeStyle" cat, out of Dana Point as a kid, 30 plus years ago. I knew them well back then but as that was 30 years ago I am in no way biased, I am simply clearifing history.

At no point in anything that is written in Wikipedia does it explain these men and the rolls that each played in creating the worlds first AC Cat, and the roots of todays Cat to the Little Americas Cup. I can not for the life of me understand why you feel so strongly that these men are not what the media has reported them to be (alleging some kind of fraud) and demanding that a story about them, on Wikipedia be removed. I have also taken the time to reach out to them via e mail SIMPLY to obtain some photos for the story, that you are so intent on removing.

You seem to be the only one that feels this story should be censored. Clearly you are not reading the stories that are linked to this, or taking any effort to look for yourself, perhaps you might want to do that at some point to gain some clearity. This is a story the deserves to be told, please stop with your solo quest to unwrite the history of the Americas Cup. Thank you

I would like to note that the Cat itself (US 1) has NO wiki page. As a professional photographer I have photos of this boat somerewhere in my chrome archives. I am looking for them now and will create a page, on the FIRST EVER CATAMARAN to compete in the Americas Cup, as it is a story that is hardly mentioned in Wiki. Another intresting note is that as a result of the legal challange from Mr. Fay and the legal battle that, in many ways tarnished the cup (excuse the pun) back in those days again is hardly covered here, and should be elaborated upon for future generations to be able to learn from and reflect upon. Censorship serves no function here. --WPPilot 13:25, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
But those issues are better served in the existing pages - not in a page named after a collection of names of some of the people that happened to be involved. There is no censorship here and no "quest to unwrite the history of the Americas cup". noq (talk) 13:37, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
I would have to disagree. Everything that you read about the 1998 event names this group as a group and the "group" that came together to win a race using technology that each was responsable for bringing into the group. Up to 1998 the Americas Cup was sailed in boats that were monohulls and sailed by men that for the most part only sailed monohulls. Intrestingly and in stark contrast to the sailors that races Catamarans, the Americas Cup sailors would rairly if ever sail Catamarans. As you will see should you read the story now, this was a group of experts that today continue push the technology that was created to defend one of the oldest races on earth. What Duncan did was to pull together a team of experts, A young Mono Hull Expert, a Wing Expert and a world class Cat sailor to create a boat that is a mirror image of what races in the Americas Cup, in Newport RI. TODAY.[2]--WPPilot 12:28, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
You would be better off arguing that at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Morrelli, Chance & Hubbart & MacLane rather than here. You keep repeating yourself and you have failed to show anything else they have done as a group. Please stop asking me to read the full story - I have multiple times. If the only reason they are notable as a group is for the Americas cup boat then, the existing articles that cover that is the appropriate place. As for the last link you added above, what is it supposed to show - I am seeing no reference to any of these people on that page. noq (talk) 12:57, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
You are totally out of line and should excuse yourself from the conversation regarding this story, you have nominated the page for Articles for deletion and you now need to let the Wiki community decide as to the future of the story.--WPPilot 15:49, 5 July 2012 (UTC)(talk)
How am I out of line - the afd process is a debate and I am perfectly entitled to participate in that debate - as are you. noq (talk) 16:01, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
You are out of line via your application of an assumption that this group has no notability. Under your interpretation nothing has any right to be in Wikipedia unless it was involving more then 1 event. Your request seems to be "Show me something else that this group of men did or it does not qualify to have its own Wikipedia page". That is a ridiculous argument that would result in the removal of just about everything on Wikipedia, i.e. Adolph Hitler Only started One World War, so perhaps you can suggest that his article is removed? Most US presidents that only served one term, lets remove those pages too right. Your error is in your logic, you are trying to assert that a group should qualify as a person and the standards that keep driving your efforts to remove this story were crafted from a total lack of understanding the standards AND OBJECTIVES of this Encyclopedia. A group does not need more then one event to qualify if as the standard states the issue meets notability standards, something that it clearly does as others have mentioned.--WPPilot 16:18, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

There would need to be an existing article about the software before it could be added to this list.

Jat list and references

I believe that the tools are now in place to insist on the referencing of items placed on that list. I simply took your lead and good work and strengthened it. The challenge is that none of the list e,embers so far are cited in the list as valid list members. From experience I have found that many editors are unaware of the requirement for list members to be cited in the list as valid members of the list. Editors are often full of goodwill and enthusiasm in this part of the world, and less concerned with the technical necessities for Wikipedia, so I am not sure how to proceed with mandating citations in the list.

I have doubts that the draconian approach of removing all uncited items wholesale and only allowing them back once cited would work well here, though it has proved successful in many other areas, though I'm quite prepared to give it a try. I also recognise that consensus building shoudl not take place on you or my talk pages. I just wanted to ask you to think the issue over. Fiddle Faddle (talk) 15:24, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Balboa Yacht Club

Your tag has been removed and clearly you are continuing your Drive By tagging with total disregard to the facts. I am creating pages for each yacht club in Newport Beach. I have created a common template and as with the case of Balboa Yacht Club I have a slew of ref's that establish its Notability. If you have something to say perhaps you would be better off using the TALK pages rather then just tagging and running off to tag another page please explain yourself:

Here is a catagory for yachtclubs in the US: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Yacht_clubs_in_the_United_States And below is a link to a Yacht Club in San Francisco: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Francis_Yacht_Club Now with your overwhelming wisdom please point out what it is that a club must do to be NOTABLE and worthy of being included with a Wiki page????

The data that is on the St Francis page is the same data that is on the BYC page, I would love to hear you explain why the BYC page does not meet the criteria of NOTABILITY ADVERT but the St Francis page does?

Your attack at my efforts has become harrassment, nothing less. You have not placed a single tag upon any yacht clubs in the US other then the 3 tags that you feel the BYC page need, yet you refuse to communicate in a forthright manner. I will continue to remove your tags unless you can explain your efforts, on the talk pages as is required and what it is that you propose to do with these yachtclubs.--WPPilot 18:08, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

and suggest that before you tag and run, that you as it states in the tag the you deposit with daily regularity across the whole of wikipedia define your actions in detail, the tags state: MORE INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND ON THE TALK PAGE. Yet for whatever reason you seem to miss out on that part of the tag, and you just deposit a tag and run away, kind of like a sucker punch.--WPPilot 18:13, 9 July 2012 (UTC) Noq the waste man — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nanoboy852 (talkcontribs) 15:03, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi,

I have been looking to update the

List of computer viruses
page by removing as many redlinks as possible.

The Anthrax (computer virus) page was one of these redlinks. As I have heard of this virus before, I decided to research it and create a page instead of deleting the redlink.

However I can see that this virus is just a standard DOS virus (of which there are countless varieties).

This is a bit of a tough choice for me, as many of the viruses listed on the

List of computer viruses
page, rely on anti-virus definitions for their references, including the Anthrax virus.

Should these articles be deleted if they only reference Anti-virus definitions, leaving only (in)famous virus articles? This could mean deleting many of the virus articles present on Wikipedia.

Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Sirkus (talk) 15:01, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

Well, I don't see the need for wikipedia to maintain articles for the many, many viruses that have been created.

Thanks for clarifying that. As I am quite new to Wikipedia I am still learning what constitutes a valid article and I appreciate your feedback.

I know this is beyond the context of this deletion query, but would you recommend that I request deletion for virus articles from Wikipedia that do not meet the above criteria? (e.g. not high impact), or do you think I should leave them as they are?

ITM Power- Ref Improve

Hi there Noq, I was just wondering why you decided to put the ref improve template on ITM Power, I did previously remove that template, and if you objected my removal of the template, perhaps it should have been brought up on the talk page prior to the re-addition. I also disagree somewhat with the notability template, as it is covered by independent reliable sources. Most major references are either from a third party or backed up by a listed third party source. As for the non-executive director statement, common sense is required, as a company would probably not lie about their non-executive director. Thanks W.D. 18:19, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Most of the references are either local news stories, some of which do not even mention the company in the main text but just in user comments. Others are to the companies own web site or just directory or announcement sites. Others read as press releases - so better refs are needed. I am still not sure how this small company meets
the notability guidelines for companies. noq (talk
) 23:50, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
Apologies for the misunderstanding, but all of the references mention ITM Power in the main text. There is one reference that seems to be considered a press release. One. Aside from that, all major statements are backed up by reliable, third party sources. Common sense required in Wikipedia, not just rules. Common sense means believing that a company would not lie about who their director is. It is a national company covered by reliable sources, and therefore I believe it is notable. Hence, I am removing the templates. Thanks, W.D.(O.T.G) (talk) 12:44, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
Not sure why you are talking about directors - I never mentioned them - but you have still failed to answer how the company meets
WP:ORG. This reference dose not mention the company except in a user comment at the end. The history section just seems to be a list of people being appointed - not anything significant. The Green car reference mentions the company in passing - not significant coverage. The Hydrogen journal reference starts off "UK hydrogen company ITM Power reports that its revenues have grown from £8k to £480k in one year" and continues in the vein of a press release. Please address these issues before removing the tags. noq (talk

Sajal12 (talk) 04:06, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

In the past it was declined a speedy deletion nomination - this does not mean that it is immune from a prod proposal. If you read the prod rationale you will see that I have read all the references and dismissed them for one reason or another. The discussion on the talk page also seems to show you are not actually writing about the company but about a government scheme that the company is on - and that is not appropriate to the article or the notability of the company. The prod can be removed by anyone at any time but should you choose to do so without addressing the concerns raised, I will take it to a formal AFD discussion. noq (talk) 08:13, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

It seems you didn't go through the links clearly and you just skimmed, request you to do so immediately. Please read each and every item clearly before putting your comments. The very first line of the page itself justifies the significance of why the article should exist, its not the usual kind of wiki promo articles for a prod or org. It clearly states the sole reason of notability and existence as companies assisted by Victorian Government. If the letter from the Premier of Victorian Government seems like a promo or irrelevant, then it shows your mere ignorance. And the very idea of calling a Patent looks like a directory listing to you, it solidifies the same premise stated in the last sentence. I decline your deletion proposal.

I don't understand why you deleted my changes.

I have done similar changes with my IP adress before and there was no problem

I think the external links I have added have their place in an enclyclopedia and are not spam. Look at them.

Although as I am a new registered user you can if you want explain me why my changes are irrelevant.

Now I am blocked for spam and vandalim!

Thanks JMRW67 (talk) 04:35, 26 October 2012 (UTC)

You do not appear to be blocked - if you were you would not be able to post here. The links you added seem to be to a personal website, and more specifically it seems to be your personal website.

Response You mean "Links mainly intended to promote a website"

Concerning chess, you can see my website presented here :http://www.jmrw.com/Bannieres.htm

 For Bobby Fisher I agree there are already plenty of links on him.
 Concerning chess studies, I am one of the proeminent member of ARVES http://www.arves.org/English/index.htm
   My page http://www.jmrw.com/Chess/Chess_Curiosities1.htm has no equivallent.
   So the informations provided by my page on chess studies cannot be found somewhere else on Wikipedia.

Concerning Strasbourg, the major of Strasbourg asked me the permission to place my slideshow on his blog

 Here I agree that other people have done pictures of Strasbourg, so there is no reason I would be privilegied.

You can see here (in french) my website presented : http://echecs64.20minutes-blogs.fr/archive/2012/10/23/mariage-de-reve-entre-echecs-arts-voyages-problemes-et-etude.html

Later response You discourage me working for Wikipedia.

The slideshow on Strasbourg http://www.jmrw.com/France/Strasbourg/diaporama/index.htm would too greatly interest Wikipedia users.

A link to chess paintings was added, and immediately removed as spam. I took a look at it, and see no reason why it should be considered spam. It isn't advertising anything. It is a large collection of paintings of people playing board games, and of chess pieces, and perhaps other things (I didn't look at all fifteen hundred images).

All Saint's Episcopal Church (Fort Lauderdale) proposed deletion

Hi Noq, I have added additional sources to this articles and will be continuing to add more over the week. Our centennial is next week so I'm trying to make a solid article by then. I removed the "proposed deletion flag" since member of my church are not very Wikipedia savvy and this will freak them out. Feel free to add it back if you feel the additional sources are not sufficient though. I am not really a Wikipedia newbie. I used to edit articles and make new ones all the time. I'm just took a long break and when I came back I created a new username. I'm really rusty! Cfitzpatrick3 (talk) 17:34, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

It seems extraordinary, but since the list was emptied of uncited items, there has not been a single new addition to it. In view of the prior enthusiasms for adding uncited items to the list are you as surprised as I am?

NTGR Research Link

Noq, thank you for the reply. I have reviewed the information in the link requirements and feel that the information provided in the link I submitted meaningfully adds to the wikipedia user experience. The information provided on the linked page provides non-open source updated financial information on the company which isn't appropriate to place directly on the Wikipedia page itself.

It is a link to a small financial research company. That company does not seem to be established enough to be a
WP:reliable source and the small amount of information that is shown is not significant and can easily be obtained from more established companies such as yahoo. All your posts so far seem to be linking to this one small organization which makes it look very much like trying to get the company named in Wikipedia. noq (talk

LAYYAH

Hi Before you go for a blind edit warning use simple Common sense. You need reliability where there lies a doubt, but my brother when you are making an article on a town (LAYYAH) of Province Punjab then it is very obvious that it must have Punjabi dialects as an language because it is part of PROVINCE PUNJAB. and main dialect is THalochi which is derived from Desert named Thal ( which is very obvious from geography of the town which is head quarter of the District comprising 80 % with thal desert). So common sense should prevail over RULES. rules are made for purpose and here purpose is realibilty and in this case reliability is obvious. STILL i have provided 2 references and a wiki pedia MAP which was not up loaded by me. i have also linked it with WIKIPEDIA page on PUNJABI DIALECTS.

Hi Noq, the reason why I added the gallery of stained glass is in the description of the church architecture I referred to those windows and someone added a citation needed label.

Thanks for your input to both this and the Fly Aruba article, NOQ. It's not my area of expertise at all - I just clicked-through in repsonse to a request from a worried-sounding user at the Teahouse - but it would be nice to help if we can. I think I understand your concern re neutrality on the Fly Aruba article, and I have tried again to edit it to achieve this. I have removed the reference to the AREVENCA Group as I can find no evidence that this was a legitimate entity (and plenty of blogs accusing it of outright fraud, but I doubt those meet Wikepedia's reference requirements). The original request for help was also understandably about distinguishing the bankrupt Fly Aruba from the extant Aruba Airlines; I understand your edit to remove the separate 'unrelated' section on this article, but could it be helpful to just clarify in passing as part of the main text?

Removed gallery

Why did you remove the gallery from Architettura Sonora? The uniqueness and notability of this company arises from the uniqueness of their product design, so an illustrative gallery of these designs seems appropriate. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 13:03, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Galleries are generally discouraged on Wikipedia and this one made the article look like a product catalogue. noq (talk) 13:32, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
Since the company's notability arises from its unique designs (read the references), how would you suggest that we illustrate that? WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:08, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
PS: According to the Wikipedia:Image use policy:
...the use of a gallery section may be appropriate in some Wikipedia articles if a collection of images can illustrate aspects of a subject that cannot be easily or adequately described by text or individual images. The images in the gallery collectively must have encyclopedic value and add to the reader's understanding of the subject.
I believe the gallery served this encyclopedic purpose by presenting a series of images that, taken together, illustrate the uniqueness of the subject's designs. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 14:11, 6 February 2013 (UTC)
I think it overkill. One or two images included with text to put it on context would be appropriate but not turning the page into a product catalogue. noq (talk) 18:13, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Removal of Content

Noq, I noticed that you are repeatedly removing content that I have added which I would like to address. I would like to start by mentioning that open source web content is for everyone, not just a select group with subjective opinions and views. As enjoyable as it can be participating in a big project, this seems to be rather concerning to me that you flawlessly remove content and consider it spam, while leaving other identical content active!

This is what you wrote entitled (STILL SPAM): "Please do not add promotional material to Wikipedia, as you did to Relationship counseling. While objective prose about beliefs, products or services is acceptable, Wikipedia is not intended to be a vehicle for soapboxing, advertising or promotion. Thank you. noq (talk) 19:58, 20 February 2013 (UTC)"

I can easily find dozens of active and aged edits within wikipedia that are well below your soapboxing, advertising, promoting and SPAMMING guidelines. If you simply looked at the page in question, you would see that for yourself. Or, you're simply choosing to ignore them! None the less, according to your standards, a quarter of the edits on this website should be abolished!

If my post is going to be repeatedly removed, then I will be forced to contact the proper channels as you are clearly not being fair in judgement and are definitely not promoting a environment open to all.

"So there is an increasing need for the scientific community to engage with Wikipedia to ensure that the information it contains is accurate and current. For scientists, contributing to Wikipedia is an excellent way of fulfilling public engagement responsibilities and sharing expertise. For example, some Wikipedian scientists have successfully integrated biological data with Wikipedia to promote community annotation.[3][4] This, in turn, encourages wider access to the linked data via Wikipedia. Others have used the wiki model to develop their own specialist, collaborative databases.[5][6][7][8] Taking your first steps into Wikipedia can be daunting, but here we provide some tips that should make the editing process go smoothly."

Since Wikipedia is the open source for everyone to update information and also edit for the correctness.

The science behind etymology is a complex thing. No one can claim the exact timing and origin of any word. Similar is the name "Ranchi". There are indeed two theories and you can not overweight one over other. So please don't erase the "Rinchi" bird theory of the evolution of the city's name.

Your reversion...yeah I get it, it's hard to cite an Internet meme without citing the Internet. I was just trying to clean up some ongoing edits/reverts especially since the term "Brogre" and other "Shrek" terms do seem to show up in such abundance in Google searches. Where the Brogre term originated and how it was apparently insinuated into the Internet wordstream is probably a subject for some other article (on the order of

Campaign for "santorum" neologism perhaps), but I do think that having some type of section/subsection/content about associated Shrek terms as Internet memes is valid content for the article. Shearonink (talk

A google search on Brogre initially claims 106,000 hits but paging through it peters out at 717. Most memes are just fleeting fads that are forgotten about in a week or so but they still leave traces in google. Unless there is significant coverage in reliable sources, they really don't merit being in the article. noq (talk) 18:40, 11 March 2013 (UTC)
With all those hits the content seemed valid, so I was just trying to tweak the refs and stem the ongoing tide of edits/removals/re-adds of that section occurring earlier today.

What are you talkng about ? Which point of view ? The notes ARE WELL SOURCED. It's amazing how a people can twist facts in order to vandalise and destroy Wikipedia pages.I say you are a vandal because you remove sourced material over and over again, this has NOTHING TO DO with point of view or disagreeing. Wikipedia has clear rules and you are continously violating them by removing sourced material and liying about "points of view" which is not the case. A source is not my point of view. If you want to remove sourced material, you have to discredit the sourced first, you have to say why those sources are unreliable. Why didn t you remove the FALSE climatic table which is point out to Cherrapnuji and not Mawsynram ? Yes, I understand, because you only remove sourced material, not wrong or unsourced material.Typical of vandals.MaXiMiLiAnO 10:00, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

My first edit was reverted because "it lacks sources" . I added one source , my edit was reverted because " one source is not enough". I added a second source and my edit was reverted by you because "the sources don't belong to the page". I think somebody needs a shrink here, if you think this is logic, so you have serious problems. Do you want sources ? I added them. We are comparing the two rainest places in the world, so why you have to say this maddness "the sources talk about another topic" . It's the SAME TOPIC. The full Mawsynram page talk about rainfall. There is nothing else about language, folklore, etc.... So the topic is 100% related. BTW, the climatic data below which I removed -where WRONG because of nother village-Cherrapnuji. Why didn't you remove that wrong climatic table than ? For me it's clear your purpose is just to disrput anybody's else contribution. This is not a correct behaviour. The Lloro' page states the place holds the world record. Mawsynram page states the same thing. THIS IS NOT OK. Can't you see it ? So, it's VERY RELATED to add a note about that , because the information in the two wikipedia pages are CLEARLY CONFLICTING. I am just trying to explain the origin of the conflict, so the matter is 100% related. If you have no ideas of the issue you are talking about, maybe you'd better contribute to other pages. MaXiMiLiAnO 10:08, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

The argument has moved on from lack of sources to relevance to the LEAD of this article. Instead of making half of the lead about another place entirely just a short reference to the disputed claim and a link to the other article is sufficient. The references to the rainfall belong on the other page not this one. The world records are sourced to different places and it is not our job to judge which is better - just point out it exists and move on. Have you actually read
WP:BRD? It details the proper way of handling these disputes between editors and it explicitly says discuss on the talk page rather than repeatedly adding the contentious edits back. noq (talk
) 10:26, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Your words look really ridicolous. Half of the lead ???? I added just ONE LINE,not half of the lead. The references ARE NEEDED ,because other users have complained about the lack of sources. Do you know the BASICS of Wikipedia ? It seems you don't. I will try to repeat it again one more time, last time:

1-Lloro' Wikipage states it is the rainest place in the world. No mention about the dispute with Mawsynram 2-Mawsynram Wikipage states it is the rainest place in the world. No mention about the dispute with Lloro' before i mentioned it.

3-Wikipedia is an encyclopedia and both Lloro' and Mawsynram articles belong to it, nevertheless they are giving clearly CONFLICTING INFORMATION. A clarification was NEEDED, that's why I stepped in.

4-I added the clarification of the dispute of the two places in the Mawsynram page, it was immediately removed because lack of source

5- I added a source, it was removed because the source was not enough (maybe because it is in Spanish), so I added source in English

6-You removed both sources , so leaving the clarification about the Lloro'/Mawsynram unsourced again. 7-If it is unsourced, it would have been removed again 8-If it was removed again, the wikipages Lloro' and Mawsynram would have given conflicting information again.

9-Tell me than what I did wrong and why you have to say I am disrupting the page, when I am just improving that. You are the one who needed to open a discussion in the Talk Page BEFORE artibrately removing two sources.

10-Now I changed and shortened the sentence and I hope it' ok for you " It's reportedly the wettest place on Earth, with an annual rainfall of 11,872 millimetres (467.4 in),but that claim is disputed by Lloro' in Colombia which station had an average yearly rainfall of 12717mm between 1952 and 1989.[1] [2]."

This is not half of the lead, it's a NEEDED clarification in order to avoid a conflicting information with another WIKIPEDIA page. What is wrong with that ? Tell me. As you can say I removed a climatic table with data of Cherrapunji. Mawsynram has only a pluviometer, not a thermometer. I think I have far improved the page, not disrupted it. Any other issue will be discussed in the Talk page as requested. MaXiMiLiAnO 13:58, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

The simple answer is I didn't notice. Looking at it more closely, it appears that the cyclist is referred to in several other articles so this allows it to be an exception to the general rule that DAB page entries must point to an existing page. noq (talk) 23:50, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

Brooke Weston

I haven't really appreciated the tone that you spoke to me in. There are many videos on YouTube showing the pranks that take place at the end of the academic year. The school issues letters to students warning of bad behaviour at the end of the year additionally. There is a lot of information on the Brooke Weston page that is the result of 'original research'. What can you suggest for this information to be included? What is a reliable source?

Youtube links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0yzPlHorGKU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sr8aTbCIioI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNh7Ya0aCYk

Youtube is not generally regarded as a
WP:reliable source. Click the blue link for what that consists of. And just because other stuff that should not be in the article currently exists there it is no reason to add to that. noq (talk

Still don't see why it can't be included. I'm not claiming something petty - the school renowned locally as being incredibly strict, yet also locally recognised that the last day of school provides an opportunity for the pupils to play some comeback. You're not exactly going to find a news report on it, but it's still a significant part of the school. Also, would that mean I'm free to go and delete anything without reference? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brefardan (talkcontribs) 00:11, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

See WP:verifiability. If it can't be verified - and the stuff you are trying to add you admit yourself cannot - then it does not belong. If it looks like it can be verified, then either add a {{cn}} tag or add a reference. noq (talk) 08:01, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Trip Tern

Hi, I saw that you reverted Trip Tern's link from Tel Aviv's page citing " not reliable source". Trip Tern is a travel startup, It has released the site in dec and have been covered by major tech blogs http://mashable.com/2013/01/10/triptern/ It aggregates data from sources such as wikitravel, dbbase etc for each Place and city and help users plan their travel using the automated algorithms.

Not a Berman Sock

I just updated a couple of links to Berman's site. He removed a couple of pages where he tells the story about the murder he committed and got away with an insanity plea. He re-posted the pages where he brags about his exploits, but that was enough to make the links invalid. I used a name similar to one of his socks just to annoy him. Check the links you replaced, they lead to missing pages. Can you revert your change? Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by RodrigoalvesnetII (talkcontribs) 02:57, 20 April 2013 (UTC) already

I had already seen that the original links do not work. The pages you replaced them with do not seem to back up the assertion in the talk page and you should not refactor other peoples comments on the talk page to misrepresent what was originally said. And your expressed desire to annoy Berman indicates that you should not be editing the article at all. noq (talk) 09:29, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

Evans1982's Miami Heat edit

  • For the record, I didn't mean to vandalize the Miami Heat article. I saw the infobox had been removed from the article and simply re-added it using an earlier version of the article.

Falls Church disambiguation

The duplication of the disambiguation pages is strange, and I have not yet figured out what has happened. Both of the disambiguation pages show in their history that I created them on 19 May GMT / 18 May EDT. I agree that there should not be two disambiguation pages for the same name.

Johnny Sexton

When you say my changes were not needed, what do you mean? Atlas-maker (talk) 21:12, 7 June 2013 (UTC)

That adding "Johnny" in the middle of his name in the lead is not needed - see
WP:BIRTHNAME. There is also no indication that Johnny is a commonly used name to refer to him - I've not personally seen it used anywhere, just the full name. noq (talk

there is plenty of indication that his
common name is different to his birth name. I've added multiple citations. Atlas-maker (talk
) 11:52, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
It still does not belong in the lead. The article name uses Jonathan, the MOS entry above even shows an example of Bill Clinton, where Bill is not mentioned in the lead but William is used instead. So it does not belong there as it is
WP:UNDUE weight. noq (talk

Have a look at Jamie Heaslip or Bill Clinton. That's exactly what is done on those articles! What are you talking about? Atlas-maker (talk) 12:04, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
I had not seen that the Bill Clinton article is now in conflict with the example given in the Manual of style - the fact remains that the manual of style should be the guideline - not the current version of other articles. Adding common diminutives of names into the lead is just pointless - I know someone called Jonathan can also be called John, Jon, Johnny, Jonny - it does not need to be stated in every article. Similarly with Stephen and Steve, James and Jim, Jamie - it just not necessary to do. noq (talk) 12:09, 9 June 2013 (UTC)
There is an obvious conflict between
undue weight to the name Jonathan, which is not very often used at least in speech. I'm going to copy and continue this discussion on the article talk page where it will have a broader input. Finished here for now. Atlas-maker (talk

Dear Noq, I'm not clear how my first edit is spammy. It links to a new page (nuclear ethics) that is relevant to the sentence on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and it references several works beyond my own. I'm also not clear on how the mere reference to my own work is spammy. If it has been published in reputable journals, what is the problem?

Comment: Per my edit summary, while I agree that adding content cited to oneself and only to oneself (it now has another, independent reference) looks bad, I see no problem with the content itself, and think it should stay. However,

Dynasty (Two Steps from Hell album)

Please explain why you think this album does not meet the

Two Steps From Hell's demonstration albums are legitimate albums and I thought my references for this album were clear enough. pizzaboy314 (talk
)

The reason is explained on the message I left at your talk page - it was deleted at AFD, your assertion that all their demos are notable is not justified - legitimate is not the same as
notable - how do you think it meets the NOTABILITY criteria rather than the "legitimate" criteria that is meaningless here. noq (talk
) 23:34, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
To be honest, calling that section of the TSFH article "demonstration albums" is misleading. They are not demos. They are simply extensive albums that are released to studios instead of the general public. I don't understand why you are singling out Dynasty among about 20 other non-public albums...? pizzaboy314 (talk)
An album for release to studios - isn't that a demo album? How does it meet
other similar ones, I just have not seen them. noq (talk
) 17:05, 19 July 2013 (UTC)
A
notability "requirements" for production-only orchestras like TSFH and others is difficult, but it is a unique situation. I have all these albums myself and know the tracklists. While lack of notability does not justify creating such an album page, it definitely doesn't justify deleting it, either. Thoughts? pizzaboy314 (talk
)
If the creation cannot be justified, then its continued existence cannot be justified. With a redirect it sends people to the TSFH page. And the link above to demo album says "A demo version or demo of a song (shortened from the word "demonstration") is one recorded for reference rather than for release." - that seems to match this perfectly. noq (talk) 09:40, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
False. Dynasty and all of
TSFH
's non-public discography are recorded for release, not reference. You can visit their webpage to see their full discography of albums, both public and not.
Out of curiousity, how much do you know about production music in general? It seems you don't quite understand how production music companies work. A perfect example would be Position Music, whose site you should definitely check out. Basically, the production music company records albums themself (like TSFH) or hires an artist or composer to record an album for their production music library. Then (in the case of Position Music) a client company who is interested in purchasing a license for an album or song has a special client login for purchasing said material. Like the top of this[10] page. In
TSFH's case, all their music is released under the label Extreme Music, as you can see here[11]. pizzaboy314 (talk) —Preceding undated

You have still not said how it meets
WP:NALBUM. "An album requires its own notability, and that notability is not inherited and requires independent evidence. That an album is an officially released recording by a notable musician or ensemble is not by itself reason for a standalone article. Conversely, an album does not need to be by a notable artist or ensemble to merit a standalone article if it meets the general notability guideline. Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article, space permitting." - quoted in its entirety. The album has already been discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dynasty (Two Steps From Hell album) and found wanting. How production companies work is irrelevant to the notability of this or any other album. noq (talk
) 15:43, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
So you deleted it because it needs more than a description and a tracklist to be "noteable"? (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 15:59, 3 August 2013 (UTC)

If you read the linked article it will explain it. Basically it warns about some of the pitfalls in editing articles about subjects you are involved in.

For the article to remain, you will need to find some independent WP:reliable sources that cover OpenProject in substantial detail - not just mentions of it. At the moment, the sources you have are not independent. If you can't find those then the article will end up being deleted. Concentrate on finding them first. noq (talk) 13:31, 5 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I created the disambiguation page for two reasons;

  1. it would appear Millionaire Devlin is notable. When I was writing the
    Robert Brydges
    article, one of the articles mentioned him and a very quick check indicates two more articles talking specifically about him from the same website. I consider that enough.
  2. a Wikipedia search indicates the existence of other Steve Devlins - which may well also fall foul of
    WP:1EVENT, but as they are notable for something a redirect to one of them would be inappropriate.--Launchballer 13:17, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Accounting software list

I think my edit should stay, because all the software listed is available in the US and for dollar accounts and only about 5-6 (a few more if you count Money and Quicken (which no longer exist), but still <10) of them are available here in the UK for £ sterling accounts, for example. Thus this list of dozens of packages is misleading and wrong for most of the rest of the world. It is really not good enough to have to follow the links to every single package to find out which work. The fact that it is US-centric should at least be up-front.

I see that a suggestion of a column for countries was made and apparently rejected / ignored several years ago.

Rachel Pearce (talk) 12:49, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

There is software in the list that is not US specific, and just adding that the list is US specific would only preclude the addition of non-US software. noq (talk) 18:03, 29 August 2013 (UTC)

The use of ç and ə always says Azerbaijani to me. Turkish looks similar, with the ı letter and the ç, but the ə gives it away. I've tagged it A7 but it's borderline G11 too. Peridon (talk) 10:12, 23 September 2013 (UTC)

2013 1st team squad, reference 9 clearly states a team list and point scores, how on earth can you claim that is not relevant and just a random report it is 100~% specific to that section of wiki page (2013 1st team squad), reference 8 is a Northumberland match report stating player names (some of them being Alnwick players) therefore giving credibility to the denotations at the bottom of the squad list (* denotes players who have represented Northumberland senior county). So again not a random report!!! every game I will continue to ad more references to that section. You need to take more time to check out the references!!!!!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by RugbyNE66 (talkcontribs) 07:35, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

Individual match reports are not what the table shows. Picking random games and citing them does not show what you claim it does. I have responded on the articles talk page which is the appropriate place to discuss this. And
WP:BRD states that is where you should make your argument for inclusion rather than continually adding it back without obtaining consensus for its inclusion. noq (talk) 07:48, 4 October 2013 (UTC)

That table shows people who have represented the 1st team and how many points they have scored. Reference 9 lists the team for one particular match this season and who scored points. What more do you want from a reference about a squad list stating points scored. Granted these roundups from the rugby round up website have not been produced for every match this season but when ever they are produced I will use them as a reference it is by no means random it is 100% specific to that section of the wiki page. There are 26 league games in a season, if a the round up website produced a team list and points scorer for every alnwick match I would use all 26 of them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RugbyNE66 (talkcontribs

As I have repeatedly said and explained on the article talk page - random match reports do not reference that table. And you have failed to address the issue of why the table should exist at all in the article. Wikipedia is not the clubs own website and you are not allowed to treat it as the clubs website. There is no one in that least that is in any way notable, the table is
WP:synth, and it is too much insignificant information. noq (talk) 11:33, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
