Your rollback request

Hello! I have granted your account rollback in accordance with your request. Please remember that rollback is for reverting vandalism/spam, and that misuse of the tool, either by revert-warring with other users, or simply reverting edits you disagree with, can lead to it being removed. For practice, you may wish to see

Fair enough—that one looked like he was revert-warring, by restoring a previously-rolled-back edit that seemed out of context (given the lack of a picture). I see the history of the problem now. TheFeds 17:26, 1 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

please put my thing back how it was. It's common sense and I've heard a few highschool football coaches in Arkansas say it. If you don't like "best of all time" then "one of the best" —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ninjabike matt (talkcontribs) 23:16, 14 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's important to write articles using a
who?] to believe Nutt is the best NCAA coach of all time[citation needed
].

I've inserted tags where there is a question about the statement. For example, what's the source that says Arkansas is 6th? And when you say "many sports historians", it's a good idea to identify them.
In order to validate those statements, you need to add
references to reliable sources. Although it's probably true that you've heard other coaches say Nutt is the best of all time, any reader on Wikipedia ought to (in an ideal article), check every fact against a reference in the list at the end of the page. How would you cite the source if it's just someone with whom you were having a conversation? The best way is to use something like the {{citation
}} template (with code that looks like <ref name = "ExampleSource1">{{citation|parameters go here}}</ref>) to reference a journalistic or scholarly source.
For example, is Nutt reported in the media to be the best? Then cite the program and the person who said so. Or has someone analyzed team performance and found that Nutt has the best record under some conditions? Then cite the researcher and the paper.
By the way, you put the information that you added into the "Resignation" section. That is probably the wrong spot, since you didn't say anything about his resignation.
So at this point, I'm not going to restore it, but if you want, go ahead and research the sources and try adding it back with some references. If you need more information about the process, feel free to ask. (Also: I put some information on your talk page with useful links for writing and editing articles. You might find some of it useful.) TheFeds 01:33, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Deletion Converted to PROD: Tayo Ogidan

Hello TheFeds, and thanks for your work patrolling new changes. I am just informing you that I have changed a page you tagged (

criteria for speedy deletion before tagging further pages. If you have any questions or problems, please let me know. Thanks again! SoWhy 13:43, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply
]

No problem; I was wavering whether to prod it or CSD it, and figured that someone would do what you did if it wasn't fit for A7. I figured that the claims of notability ought to have been substantiated over the two months since creation of the article. After removing those as unsourced BLP material, and finding nothing at all to support even the uncontroversial material, there didn't seem to be anything left, so I elected to CSD. In any event, I doubt it would survive an AfD, if it came to it, but I didn't want to create more work for AfD—there's plenty of backlog there already. TheFeds 22:49, 21 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with the assumption, but for A7 claims are all that is needed. Missing or non-established notability can only be a reason for deletion via PROD or AFD, hence the conversion. Regards SoWhy 05:59, 22 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion at Wikipedia:No original research/Noticeboard

I thought your answer at the Village Pump (policy) regarding calculations was insightful and am hoping you could weigh in at Wikipedia:No original research/Noticeboard regarding the use of calculation software regarding Erdos-Bacon numbers (I'm not all that aware on the specifics). No matter what side you take in that discussion at least it might make everyone think a little harder, as emotions of "I'm right your wrong" are taking over instead of insightful discussion.Camelbinky (talk) 17:51, 26 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Looks good, Spike; I'll actually make a little edit to pull them into one section and clarify a little. I think about 3 of us saw it and moved in from different angles...someone else also reverted the copy-paste move. TheFeds 07:43, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As I mentioned in my note to him, I thought perhaps he was trying a
WP:CSD#G7 because of the contributions of others, if he is the others! I notice that since I reverted his page blanking, the only editor working on the article is himself, the same editor that blanked it.

I was completely unaware of the stuff that you mentioned in your post to his talk page. I only saw the page blanking in Aberdeen floating village because it showed up in my Huggle screen. How were you made aware of the copy and paste operations? — SpikeToronto 07:56, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply

P.S. Liked your consolidation and revision of our comments. — SpikeToronto 07:58, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I checked his contributions, because I was curious what was going on—after all, he wrote most of that article, and it was pretty good, why would he suddenly want to delete it? And sure enough, he was moving it back to its old title (which Olivier had changed previously). As that was happening, Anakin101 stepped in and reverted the copy-paste move (which I was contemplating doing). So all that was left was to try to piece it back together on his talk page.... Thanks for the assistance! TheFeds 08:00, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

wiki of cvr college of engineering

hello, I am a student of cvr college of Engineering and the page I created for cvr is :

cvr college of engineering

I have taken all permissions from the chairman/principal/governing council to create a page in Wikipedia to use our college images in the page directly for our web-siteAs I am not familiar using Wikipedia I need some help I have given most of the content that i can give but Wikipedia shows "This article does not cite any references or sources. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. (October 2009)

This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. Please improve this article if you can.

This article may not meet the notability guidelines for companies and organizations. Please help to establish notability by adding reliable, secondary sources about the topic. If notability cannot be established, the article is likely to be merged or deleted. "

I kindly request you to have some thing done to not display these lines as I have done what I can,If possible please try to improve my article so that it does not show these lines,you can use data from The official college web-site ,I have taken all permission from our chairman.

Thanks in advance (

talk) 12:55, 18 October 2009 (UTC))[reply
]

Regarding the images, there is a way to confirm that you have permission. Please follow the procedure at
free licence
. (Because that image is the same as one published on the school's website, we have to assume that the school owns the copyright; therefore, only someone who officially represents the school can give this permission.) It is possible that the school will not allow this; in that case, it is unlikely that Wikipedia will be able to use the image, because of copyright laws.
Regarding the tags for improvement, please be aware that those are a standard feature of many Wikipedia articles that need improvement, and should only be removed if the concerns expressed there are no longer valid.
The first tag warns readers that there is some question about the notability of the subject—basically, we need you or another editor to provide evidence that CVR College is a notable institution. The usual way to do this is to demonstrate that there has been significant coverage of CVR College by independent sources (like in the news, or by trade publications). Also, you've made reference to an accreditation organization, but I can't find your school on their list. (Is this the same as C.V.S.R. College of Engineering?) If you can
verify
all of this, that would be ideal.
The next tag states that this article has no references. Again, please cite sources independent of the school to verify major facts about the institution, and cite the school's documentation for things like staff details and course contents.
The final tag just states that the style of the article needs improvement. Wikipedia has lots of guidelines regarding article formatting; please see the
Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, you can see examples of what the best format for an engineering college's article might be. TheFeds 16:18, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply

Allied Artists International and Senior Abuse of a 93 year old, computer illiterate man at Wikipedia

Allied Artists International and Senior Abuse of a 93 year old, computer illiterate man at Wikipedia

  • I am a relatively inexperienced editor of articles about China. Louis Lesser is a historic business figure in China, who was instrumental in opening it up.
  • Louis Lesser does not self promote with his own Wikipedia page, even though he was partners with President
    Kirk Kirkorian
    .
  • Louis Lesser is now 93 years old man and is computer illiterate.
  • Louis Lesser is CEO of
    Allied Artists Pictures Corporation
    .
  • Kimball Dean Richards
    is the CEO of Allied Artists InternationalPitctures Corporation.
  • Kimball Dean Richards has a criminal record that includes so many crimes over the past twenty years that he has been identified as a “Master Criminal” by the FBI, was sentenced to 20 years for bank fraud, mail fraud, an wire fraud in about 1990, and plea bargained after he solicited the MURDER of one of his own employees, tapped the phones of the Sheriff’s office in order to pre-warn drug dealers of impending searches, and was extradited to Arizona for still more criminal charges.
  • WarriorBoy is an editor who only writes articles that promote ALlied Artists International.
  • By allowing the vandalism of reliably sourced content, from LA Times, federal court records, etc., WarriorBoy and the Consolidated Allies gang are linking a beloved 93 year old man with a Master Criminal, in order to profit from his computer illiteracy, and use the name of his company by forming similarly named companies. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ChinaUpdater (talkcontribs) 21:09, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment about the hidden text, Comments not related to AfD issues (by 75.84.158.222, ChinaUser and 99.166.95.142) are hidden below. appears incorrect. It looks to me as if 99.166.95.142's is very much about the AfC. Who then was a gentleman? (talk) 20:54, 20 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I moved it along with ChinaUpdater's ranting and accusations of sockpuppetry, because he seemed to be addressing ChinaUpdater. Please feel free to move it back or change the heading if you think it's warranted, but I think 99.166.95.142's comment was meant to advise ChinaUpdater to get back on topic, rather than weigh in on the substance of the AfD.

OK, I see what your comments mean. Yeah, he/she did seem to be addressing ChinaUpdater. BTW, I'm staying out of this, I've warned ChinaUpdater and warned him/her, but there's a bee in their bonnet about this subject, they're way beyond BLP violations with this, and they won't let it go.

  • I have seen enough, as of this, - [1] –, which when coupled with the massive other edits by WarriorBoy85, all overtly NN ADVERTs, all NRS, and all COI and POV, to make the following accusations.
  • WarriorBoy85 is clearly trying to defraud people who read Wikipedia into thinking
    Allied Artists Records
    (by WarriorBoy85s own edits here).
  • I accuse WP:WarriorBoy85 and WP:TechnicalExpertise of being Sockpuppets for
    Kimball Dean Richards. I dont care about his overt legal threats, or his history of Solicitation for Murder here [2]
    .

Slow Down and Reconsider

Look HERE [7]. You will see

Allied Artists Pictures Corporation

  • I had never heard of any of this before a few days ago. In fact, I thought the name was Allied Artists MOTION Picture Company, a different name entirely, and I cretainly never heard of this RIchards guy.
  • Allied Artists Pictures Corporation
    , which is at least in part owned by a 93 year old man who has no relationship to KDR, NONE.

Email

  • I have received death threats, recorded by the LAPD, and in posession of the SFPD.
  • I reported them to Agent McClatchy at the United States Secrete Service, Division of Bank and Wire Fraud, as well as to Detective Level II Barragan in the same office, both of whom I met with in person.
  • Because of KDR's past "solicitation to commit murder", and other crimes to further his Allied Artist misrepresenations, I do not feel comfortable with giving my email, as I know from personal experience that there are problems with at least two admins related to something else entirely.

Hi TheFeds, at the AfD for Saltine cracker challenge you commented "Delete ... It's not notable enough in its own right, though. (At best, find sources and include in an appropriate article.)". I've since improved the article to the point where I think it addresses your concerns; there are sources demonstrating notability, and there is enough material already for the article to stand alone.
