Fancy helping out on Slashdot article?Not sure of protocol, but you're listed on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Internet_culture and seem to have a good grasp of Wikiquette. I posted on Third opinion: Active disagreements yesterday but am getting impatient. The only other editor keeps reverting everything.

csdThere is basic verifiability for Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Paul Leigh so I did not delete. CSD deletion to does not extent to BLPs that are merely poorly sourced. (or even unsourced, unless they are negative or dubious). I did not accept it though, pending improvements--he might actually be notable and one of the refs does give basic verification. DGG ( talk ) 20:07, 20 March 2013 (UTC) For DGGFeel free to ring if you need another opinion about why minor artworks are not notable, or inappropriate for inclusion. I'm not implying that I am an art elitist, nor that I would be a sycophant-as-a-service. I do know a small amount about some art history. Also, I think I may have messed up the Singularity Institute's Russian and Belorussian Wikipedia articles by mistake. I did the English and French page moves correctly. I don't know who to tell about the RU and Belorussian problem, as I don't speak the languages, and the more I try, the worse of a mess I made. I don't want to agitate the Transhumanists, as I don't intend to be disrespectful. They mean well, and don't hurt anyone. Can you tell me who to go to, so that that gets taken care of nicely? --FeralOink (talk) 07:41, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
Help to review a draftHi FeralOink, I'm looking for editors to help review a new draft for a software company article and was hoping you may be able to help, since you are a WikiProject Business participant and the article falls under that project. The draft is for the marketing software company Vocus, which already has an article but one that has fallen into disrepair. In my user space, I've posted a new draft that I've written, which provides better sourcing and a clearer overview of the company's operations and products. You can see the draft here: User:16912_Rhiannon/Vocus If you'd like more details, there's a full explanation of the draft in my request on the Vocus Talk page. As I've explained there, I do have a potential COI on this topic, as I've written the draft on behalf of the company. This is why I'm looking for impartial editors to read through and make sure the draft is neutral, non-promotional and otherwise follows Wikipedia's guidelines. I should also note: I will not make any edits to the Vocus article myself. One editor has taken a look at the draft so far and made some edits, although they've not left any comments, so I'd like to get other editors' feedback and ask that they move the draft if it's ready. If you're able to help, please review the draft and let me know if you have any questions or comments. Thanks, 16912 Rhiannon (Talk · COI) 20:38, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
AFT5 re-enabledHey FeralOink :). Just a note that the Article Feedback Tool, Version 5 has now been re-enabled. Let us know on the talkpage if you spot any bugs. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) (talk) 00:49, 24 April 2013 (UTC) Tt30 prodI think it makes sense to merge rather than delete; see my comment on the talk page. Thanks for helping clean up! – SJ + 01:09, 28 May 2013 (UTC) Disambiguation link notification for June 7Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Short story, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Novelettes (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

I wanted to let you know about some changes I made to your recent update. You were right that the Gang of Eight article needed to have a spelled out list of who the members were, instead of just their titles. Unfortunately the Gang of Eight page (now Gang of Eight (intelligence) you edited is about the original Gang of Eight that works on intelligence and not the new Gang of Eight (immigration). I fixed both pages to include the correct lists of members and renamed one of the pages; hopefully this will help end the confusion (which other people shared). If you have a few minutes to look around at my changes, will you see if things are clarified enough? Both pages really need more content, but I don't have time to add to them at the moment. Thanks!!

 WikiProject AFC is holding a one month long Backlog Elimination Drive! Delivered at 12:53, 19 June 2013 (UTC) by EdwardsBot (talk), on behalf of WikiProject AFC Stanford College of Business and Technology AfCDear FeralOink, I recently submitted an article about Stanford College of Business and Technology: Stanford International College of Business and Technology is a private career college in the province of Ontario, Canada. [1] Founded in 2003 Stanford College has 5 locations in Southern Ontario and offers education programs for diplomas and certificates in Technology, Trades and Healthcare. [2]The college is a member of the Ontario Association of Career Colleges[3], the National Association of Career Colleges [4] and is an approved training provider of the Technical Standards and Safety Authority. [2]Stanford International College is also an educational partner of Cape Breton University in Nova Scotia; Canadore College of Applied Arts and Technology[5], Ontario and the American Hotel and Lodging Educational Institute[6], USA. The school is also a Testing Centre for both the Technical Standards and Safety Authority and the Canadian Welding Bureau. [2] You said that this does not have reliable sources and sounds like an advertisement and needs to be improved. Can you please give me some suggestions on improvement? I got my ideas for this article based on an article of a similar business: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TriOS_College If my article is exactly like theirs but with information on Stanford College instead of Trios college would it be ok? They only have references based on their own website and the OACC website (http://www.oacc.on.ca/Default.aspx?webpage=OACC_member_colleges), If I also have references from the Stanford college website (scbt.ca) and the OACC website would it be ok? Should I only mention the year founded and the basic introduction? Thank you for your time!

It will be a struggle for me to remain NPOV on there, I'm pretty horrified by it... WykiP (talk) 18:10, 17 July 2013 (UTC) ReplyHello pal, thanks for your recent kind words regarding my few lines on the nataraja some years ago. I'm a white British practicing Hindu and keen writer on Hinduism; I have a great deal I might like to share but for now I can link you to some in-progress files I'm going to be using for talks, if I can get them proof-read properly. I regret it's not finished work- come back to me in six months and I'll have much more, best wishes, Sean Considering it passed AfD at 2011, I'm not comfortable deleting it via speedy,even if it isnt quite the same reason. You'll need to use AfD. I suggest the nomination is more likely to succeed if you adopt a less outraged tone. DGG ( talk ) 18:39, 30 July 2013 (UTC) Help with AccentureHey FeralOink, I'm reaching out because I see that you recently made an edit to the Accenture article. I'm currently working on the company's behalf to correct some inaccurate information in their article. Because of my financial COI, I don't edit articles directly; instead, I've posted a note about some of the changes that I'd like to see over at Talk:Accenture. If you have time, do you think you could take a look and, if the changes seem acceptable, go ahead and implement them? Thanks! ChrisPond (Talk · COI) 15:10, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Article Feedback Tool updateHey FeralOink. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles. We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article. Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks!
