Speedy deletion nomination of Beijing 2008 (painting)
Hello Beta Lohman,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Beijing 2008 (painting) for deletion, because it seems to be promotional, rather than an encyclopedia article.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

@Beta Lohman, I made a few little edits to your draft, am sure with a small amount of extra work then you'll have a worthwhile article which won't suffer from a speedy deletion again. MathmoTalk04:20, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
As it says, "There are 2,512 pending submissions waiting for review." Unlikely that it will get reviewed, I'd suggest probably to just refine the article a bit more (slimming it down for instance might even be a good idea, something "less is more") then WP:BEBOLD and summit it yourself. Then if someone tries to speedy delete it again, simply contest it! Make it actually go to WP:AfD for a proper discussion. Good luck! MathmoTalk04:30, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
Your article is not ready for publication and has been moved to draft space. Please work on it there before submitting for review. Deb (talk) 08:15, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
You wrote "I don't have time to answer some users to make comments on the article." What do you mean, you don't have time? What is the urgency? You don't need to answer queries; you just need to make the necessary corrections. It seems like you are not familiar with the correct procedures. I see that you have now recreated the article in your sandbox. Don't even think about moving it to article space without a review. If you do, I'll protect the page so that it can't be recreated without administrator authorisation. Deb (talk) 10:04, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
What? I was trying to rewrite the article with new sources. Hey, the painting Beijing 2008 is very notable in Chinese internet world (and also in English world seemingly, too). So I solved the notability problem. --Beta Lohman※Office box10:09, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
I don't wait for review because I'm going to retire just today in my timeline. It's unlikely to wait for many users to make a long comment on the article. For the current of time, I was trying to solve the problems. You could also list some issues on my talk page or yours, instead of just locking the article.--Beta Lohman※Office box10:16, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
@Deb: I could make a new draft instead of making a new article. But take note of this, I won't do any edits since tomorrow. So the draft might be removed without my participate. --Beta Lohman※Office box10:22, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
This response shows you don't understand the drafting process. The draft would only be deleted if it met the speedy deletion criteria. No one cares whether you, personally, "participate" in the review. Deb (talk) 10:26, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
Incorrect. It's flagged after six months only if you haven't made any changes to it and haven't submitted it for review during that time. Deb (talk) 11:36, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Eh, Beta Lohman made 'one edit' (no other users, than myself) in a manner that doesn't exactly fall outside the scope of WP:APPNOTE. For you to then label it "disruptive" is I'd say hyperbolic and very much reflective of the intolerant bias you're pushing. MathmoTalk03:25, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
Are you, User:Mathmo, a “talk page or noticeboard of one or more WikiProjects?” No? You sure? Ok. APPNOTE doesn’t apply.
Are you, User:Mathmo, a “central location for discussions?” You’re not that either? Oh. Well, then APPNOTE is irrelevant.
Are you, User:Mathmo, a “talk page of one or more directly related articles.” I don’t believe so. So stop trying to use this as an excuse for your WP:STALKing of my edits.
Were you, User:Mathmo, mentioned in discussion between myself and Beta Lohman? No, no you weren’t.
Have you, User:Mathmo, made extensive edits to this article before? No, no you haven’t. This was your first appearance. Have you participated in related discussions? No, not but immediately before this canvassing. Are you a recognized expert in this topic? Lol, no. Have you asked to be informed of this topic? Not on-wiki you haven’t.
So, the canvassing was not in the least bit “appropriate”. Beta Lahman called you in to help them in an edit war, which is a violation of both WP:CANVASS and WP:TAGTEAM. The appropriate thing for both of you to do now is to step back from the article rather than continuing with the tag-team reverts. Still wondering how exactly they found you in particular. Volunteer Marek 05:54, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
Let's read that one more time, but extra slowly for you: "Editors who have participated in previous discussions on the same topic (or closely related topics)"
Well then, I was the most recent editor for the parent page. I'm clearly one of the most clear cut appropriate examples of WP:APPNOTE that you could wish for! Don't be so surprised and shocked. MathmoTalk13:46, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
No, no you haven’t. @Beta Lohman: please explain why you asked THIs particular editor - who’s now following me around Wikipedia and WP:STALKing my edits - to come to help you edit war? This is extremely disruptive and a clear violation of Wikipedia policy, especially since the two of you are now WP:TAGTEAMing. Volunteer Marek 14:07, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.
You have shown interest in Eastern Europe or the Balkans. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.
To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
