User talk:GB fan/Archive 11
Re: edit to User talk:47.62.16.28Oh. I thought English Wikipedia worked just like other Wikis in Wikimedia when it came to discussion pages. Just out of curiosity, is there a page that mentions it? Thank you for your kindness. RequestHi, I found a draft that was 48 percent copyrighted (according to Earwig's detector). I cleaned up the copyright (per WP:SOFIXIT) and got it down to below 20 percent). I need you to rev delete all of the revisions which had the copyrighted material. The draft is Draft:Indian_association_of_Dermatologists,_Venereologists_and_Leprologists_(IADVL)#State_branches_of_IADVL . Thank you JC7V-constructive zone 14:06, 25 August 2018 (UTC) Deirdre JacobHi, I was about to create an article on the above person, when I was notified that a page had previously existed and had been deleted by you at 22:13, 5 August 2013 under WP:A7. Her case is no longer that of a missing person and has been upgraded to a murder investigation. The Garda announcement mentions an unnamed suspect as well as results of a review of the case and unspecified new information. Would a new article on her fall under WP:A7 or would it now have WP:SIGNIFICANCE? Autarch (talk) 20:04, 27 August 2018 (UTC)
PP of x86Thanks! Now we'll see where Jan. surfaces next... Jeh (talk) 09:36, 5 September 2018 (UTC) thanksThank You for advise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Radhashyam Gayen (talk • contribs) 21:00, 5 September 2018 (UTC) deletion of IMPERIAL-Newton CorpHi, I work for IMPERIAL-Newton and a customer informed us the other day that he noticed our page had been deleted. I was surprised to confirm this, and read the reasons stated for the deletion. I was wondering why you removed the page about us, and how we get it restored? Since our founding, we have transformed the custom/specialty segment of the hand tool industry in a way no other company has done; which is likely why someone created a page about us. We solve unique need within our industry, and while we might not be known to your average consumer, we are very well known within our industry and the world's largest and prominent organizations like NASA, the NAVY, Halliburton who have special needs others cannot meet. Other companies in our industry have pages on this site, but are arguably less notable in that they produce commodity items same to a dozen other brands and are unremarkable in this regard, while we fill a unique niche producing highly special variations and have transformed a subset of an industry that is over 2000 years old. Many find our role as being highly notable, including the largest tool brands in the world who come to us when they need special lengths and sizes, and we ask that your please restore the page about us. if you need evidence of validity or other substantive justification for why our page is justified, and not an advert, please ask. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueDog111 (talk • contribs) 05:21, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
Thank you for restoring the page, and please retract the listing for deletion. No employee created the page, but i know that years back people began to mention us and noted our unique role in our industry in other wiki pages, which was very basic, and my understanding was that since we now had a page and were mentioned, it should be a proper page with accurate info. So we reached out to the user to please improve it and complete it to be more proper in appearance such as adding facts. As a courtesy we were given the login to make updates in the future, which is why I am using it still now. If that was improper I apologize, but the intent was to improve quality on existing content, and it does not diminish our notability, or worthiness to distinguish our unique role from the many others in our industry on Wikipedia who simply make the same products as all the others. I would be happy to provide supporting facts or information if needed to substantiate why what we do is notable, and why others felt it worthy to mention us in the scope of tool making history. We are notable in that we make the world's largest sockets and wrenches, including the development of a new square drive to handle loads above 150,000 ft-lbs which did not exist prior. We also have the widest size range of any tool maker in the world, surpassing over 480,000 sockets and wrenches (which is unique in itself), including sizes and shapes that no other manufacturer offers. We have manufactured special tools in support of NASA missions including the Mars program and international space station, for which the other brands could not supply. If changes need to be made to the page to remove any hint of promotion please let us know, but we are not deserving of deletion. I ask that you please remove us from the AFD deletion process please and let us know what changes need to be made if any to allow us the same listing status as Matco or other routine brands which are not being targeted for deletion. Our page certainly has merit beyond mere sales figures, and we are willing to support that fact however needed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueDog111 (talk • contribs) 19:41, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
I understand your concern with this account (we make sockets we are not web programmers so it was a courtesy and it not been abused), and will cancel this account and figure out how to create a new account if necessary to rectify this. For what it is worth I agreed with some who commented on the page he made, so I went in and tried to clean it up and provide relevant support the best I know how. To your point about relevancy not being valid if self proclaimed, I fully agree with your logic but I wonder how then it can be substantiated for other companies in our industry who have pages here which they probably made unlike ours. Does being publicly traded or doing a lot of adverts in magazines make you notable? That seems contrary to the purpose of this site, which is not a popularity or familiarity contest. If you sincerely believe we are completely un-noteworthy despite others feeling it worth mentioning us and making a page, then I don't know what this is about, and I guess we will just wait for someone else to make the case for us, or we run more advertisements we can point to? As I offered previous, I will provide what you ask for. There are chat forums which discuss us that I can give you, and product photos substantiating what I said is true. We are a notable manufacturer in a niche market, and others have said so (to your point). Unless CNN or the BBC does an article on us we are unnotable? A california newspaper felt our leaving was notable, which I saw was included in the page they made on us. What does it take? I noted that Wingify above still has a page, and they seem even less notable than us. Very confused by why we are being targeted or how we make this right. We are certainly more notable or equal to Wingify and I am fully willing to do what you ask. Please tell me what is needed to resolve this, and just allow us to have the page that was made on our behalf to remain. Do we simply need more links to online content discussing us or what is the bar we must meet if mentions and a user making a page are not it? Thank you for your time and understanding to our situation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BlueDog111 (talk • contribs) 21:18, 2 September 2018 (UTC)
Got it. I made a new account and will discard or cancel the old one as you can see from this post. Unfortunately I don’t have coding skills to deploy these links and footnotes on our page, but here are some reliable sources that comprise "significant coverage of the subject": http://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=314827&mid=2450060#M2450060 http://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=314827&posts=9&highlight=imperial-newton&highlightmode=1#M2450393 http://www.shopfloortalk.com/forums/archive/index.php?t-34748.html http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/projects/216630-slugging-striking-wrench-square-nut-2.html http://www.practicalmachinist.com/vb/general/help-finding-octagon-socket-235477/ http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=112590 http://www.redpowermagazine.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=75414 http://www.jvmv2.se/forum/index.php?mode=thread&id=24460 http://talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=314827&mid=2449638 http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=281854 http://www.theoildrum.com/node/6562 https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-230072.html I think you will find the content of this coverage meets the standard, in that we are unusual enough to pique interest and spontaneous discussion and strong reaction, and are being talked about, because (dare I say it) we are notable to those who deal in our sphere. They are reliable sources because they are unsolicited and genuine examples of real people in the general public who know our industry and how notable it is that we do what nobody else does (much like only veterinarians or horse owners would find a new treatment notable, the rest of us don't care but it's still notable to lots of people just not everyone). I have dozens of emails from major corporations telling us how unusual we are, and grateful they found us, but those are not public so they don't count. We are not a public traded company, and what we do isn't juicy news headlines or controversial. We are at the lower end of the "notable" spectrum, in a niche corner of a 2000 year old market; and we are not media hounds chasing publicity, so we will not be in all the newspapers; but I don’t think that is required is it? The newspaper article on us I know of, was the result of a customer who contacted a major news agency in California because they were upset at our departure. Doesn't that say something about our significance in our industry, that someone would make that effort to contact a reporter? Who cares if some un-notable company leaves town? They called a reporter (and that reporter acted on it)! Further, we are considering a submission to the Guinness Book of World Records but that is low on our priorities. We are engaged in helping with unusual needs because nobody else does, not with getting publicity and doing press releases. It was nice to see that people noticed, and made a Wiki page about us and mentioned us in relevant categories. I just didn’t want to see that recognition torn down because the average person doesn’t know we exist, and those who do - at NASA and GE and BP - aren't writing articles about it. I guess we aren't deserving until we make the news or get listed on a stock exchange or bought by some big conglomerate. I thought it was about being unique and noteworthy, or transformative on an entire industry, not just being in the press. Is it fair to ask our customers and engineers at these companies to please contribute to making another page for us? Is that allowed to ask them to share their perspective to prove it's not just us?--Wiki5711 (talk) 00:54, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
Ok, was hoping that sine we had one major newspaper article about us, that 12+ different people across the world commenting about our notability would hit the "multiple" reliable mark. But I guess not. The idea being that we could have faked all those links and unique member forum discussions all by ourselves? I give up. You know, if we were trying for the deceptive marketing spam thing, I would not have contacted you with the account that made the page, and would have pretended to be someone else using a new account. Instead I explained things, and was forthright. Despite all this a page someone made about us is being subjected to deletion on the basis that it was just an advert for an un-notable entity. Nice. Oh, and not sure how to disclose I work for the company - but I do. We're an honest bunch and mean no harm. Carry on as you will. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki5711 (talk • contribs) 01:37, 3 September 2018 (UTC)
I understand, and I know you are just doing a job that needs to be done given all the garbage people put up. I've seen the self aggrandizing statements companies put up about themselves that Mean as Custard took down. They treat it like it is a sales brochure, not a respected source of factual info. I agree that what that guy wrote about us was of little value, it is not what I would have wrote at all. While we appreciate the sentiment of his actions to try and recognize our contribution to the sector, it was just so many words about nothing of substance. Nothing he said concerned how we are notable. I support wiping that garbage off the site same as you, but we didn't write it, so please don't penalize us for it. We don't control what he did. That is kind of the point right? We aren't supposed to talk about ourselves. Yet the collective details of what makes us notable isn't public knowledge, so he didn't have much to work with. I cant blame him for trying. I wish someone more sophisticated had made our page with more information, but we don't get to choose. I tried to strip it down to only what matters while retaining what others said about us; adding substantive facts that point to reasons why he was compelled to make page about us. I hope I succeeded, and now others will contribute to it. We are learning, and will respect the framework of this platform.--Wiki5711 (talk) 01:43, 4 September 2018 (UTC) Thank you for hearing our thoughts, and sorry for filling your page with unnecessary text about it.

Prix Valery Larbaud winnersHello GB fan, I discover that nearly 2 years ago I asked (haven't the slightest souvenir of that) the masking of this category which yet contained quite a number of names. Was I high on something or maybe wasn't I satisfied with the title, I shall never know (I may thought that "Valéry Larbaux Prize winners" or "laureates" would have been more approriate on the en Wiki. Pick your choise). Could you please release this page? Sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks in advance, LouisAlain (talk) 10:09, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
The most likely explanation is that I created the category, forgot about it and it remained empty until it was deleted. Someday I'll proceed to start from scratch again and fill the new category as soon as created. Thanks for your help and sorry for the time wasted on that sillyness of mine.

Baseless accusations re: NewtPlease do not accuse make the serious accusation of ban evasion without proof. With all due respect, it’s beneath you to immediately report and, frankly, lie about an editor who is adhering to admin requests and using the talk page to resolve the clear issues of NPOV and agenda pushing on the part of prior editors on the Newt Gingrich page, who I won’t name at the risk of your reporting me for some other baseless accusation, like civility.

Disambiguation pagesThank you for reviewing my work. I appreciate your comments, and I have done my best to address them. I looked at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Disambiguation_pages#Red_links and saw an example of how a red link can be used. In the example the redlink Flibbygibby is not mentioned in the article Cornice. I felt frustrated after seeing ICT in many papers that did not explain what it meant. After much more searching I finally found out it meant immunchromatographic. I thought I would spare others the same frustration, by entering a definition in a disambiguation page. I intend to either create an article on immunchromatographic or a redirect to another article where it is defined. As you know, redlinks are for notable topics that deserve an article or further explanation, otherwise there would be no purpose of redlinks. I thought it best to at immediately create a disambiguation entry to provide minimal information until the article gets created. Thanks again for reviewing my work. Please let me know of any other solutions. Comfr (talk) 22:11, 3 January 2019 (UTC) I have since found a broader article on the subject, and added a subsection in ICT.

Cecily Jordan FarrarHi, I requested a speedy deletion of a redirect, as I had built a new version of an article that been moved to a new topic, as it had wandered far afield. The original article, which was 8 years old was about a person and the article rapidly change to a legal case, which caused the change. I rebuilt the article, and I don't think it is controversial at this point (I outline the history below.) So what is the best way to request a redirect to the new/old article about a person instead of the legal case, which as a life of its own? For reference, Here's are my steps, since the recent January 19 redirect:
The redirect just recently happened, so I don't think there are many links to the new topic, yet. The original links are intended to point to a biography, not a legal case. I don't think adding a replacement article for the one that was moved is controversial. I certainly didn't intend it to be so. It's just returning to the original biography that has 8 years of link history. (I also left related note with Anthony Appleyard, as he addressed a history merge request. Any guidance or help about how I can get for removing the redirect in a straightforward fashion that follows WP protocol would be appreciated. Thanks!Wtfiv (talk) 02:55, 23 January 2019 (UTC) It's been taken care of. Thank you!Wtfiv (talk) 07:05, 23 January 2019 (UTC) Revision delete at Talk:Tom BradyHello! I saw you were listed as an admin willing to take revdel requests. There's a bit of IP vandalism at Special:Diff/880635645 that looks libelous and should probably be revdel'd - not so much for the content, which is routine vandalism, but for the edit summary. Thanks! PohranicniStraze (talk) 15:06, 28 January 2019 (UTC) ANIHi, can you please look at the edits I deleted at WP:ANI? I believe they should be suppressed.

Lion in Steven UniverseI added the Steven Universe character Lion to the page Lion (disambiguation) You reverted that with the comment:
The character's name is indeed "Lion" - see for example our page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Steven_Universe_characters#Miscellaneous
Or https://steven-universe.fandom.com/wiki/Lion
I'm going to go ahead and re-add it to Lion (disambiguation) - 189.122.248.181 (talk) 02:44, 1 February 2019 (UTC) This has gotten out of hand because until a few minutes ago I didn't know what the tweet said in English. I believe the material I deleted should be suppressed. If you agree, then you should also know that similar links exist at the AfD (added by an admin) and, although I haven't looked, probably in other forums, including ANI. It would be easier if you disagree with me.

disambiguation pagesLists of names Shortcut WP:NAMELIST To prevent disambiguation pages from getting too long, articles on people should be listed at the disambiguation page for their first or last name only if they are reasonably well known by it. We reasonably expect to see Abraham Lincoln at Lincoln (disambiguation), but very few sources would refer to the waltz composer Harry J. Lincoln by an unqualified "Lincoln", so he is only listed at the Lincoln (surname) anthroponymy article. This is even more widespread for first names—many highly notable people are called Herb, but typing in Herb gets you an article on plants. Herb (disambiguation) does not even list any people named "Herb", but instead links to Herb (surname) and Herb (given name), where articles on people named "Herb" are listed. Consensus among editors determines if an article should be listed on the disambiguation page. 97.92.91.74 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:53, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

Hey bro - could you please do me a solid and recreate this page, that you wrongfully deleted last year? It was about the martial artist/actor Eugene Thomas Trammell, whom you did not know, and therefore deleted the page, despite the fact that he has a HUGE cult following in martial arts B-movie communities worldwide. The famous blaxploitation star Rudy Ray Moore even made a tribute-film, "Shaolin Dolemite" honouring Trammell in 1999 - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0292232/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_1 If you need me to provide more details on the page later, I can do so, if you just re-create it again, thank you. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people)#Entertainers Actors, voice actors, comedians, opinion makers, models, and celebrities: Has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions.

Speedy deleted redirects and mess created on user pageHi GB fan, I am writing to let you know that you have succeeded to annoy a constructive fellow editor by wasting my precious time through speeding deleting a bunch of redirects I created yesterday and by templating a regular in a rather abusing way. The redirects I created are perfectly valid per WP:REDIR. Assuming you are unfamiliar with the topics, you might find these names to look somewhat odd, but these terms are actually the standard names of certain CAD layers in several rather common EDA tools (EAGLE, TARGET, Protel). They define the solder cream/paste and stop masks needed in PCB production and assembly. Many users who are new to PCB design mix up these terms and their purposes, therefore I created redirects so that users who run into them and search for background information will be directed to the corresponding Wikipedia pages. Per WP:RPURPOSE this is one of the very purposes for why redirects exist and should be created and since none of these redirects was conflictive with any other usage, it was not okay to delete them (see WP:R#DELETE and WP:R#KEEP). Since it will take me considerably more time to recreate them than for you to undelete them, I sincerely ask you to restore them so that we can both continue with constructive work in our respective areas of this encyclopedia instead of wasting energy working against each other. Thanks. --Matthiaspaul (talk) 21:49, 21 March 2019 (UTC)

Hello GB fan. I have noticed that you deleted the article Robert Verrijt due to copyright infringements.

ResponseHi, I didn't see where to add a reason for the removal. I removed the content because it seemed biased. The source given in the paragraph I removed came from the American School Bus Council which is an organization that promotes school bus use and/or operators. The paragraph's main intent seemed to be to minimize the environmental impact of school buses, which should be the way that a section on the environmental impact of school buses is begun. It lessens the value of this section, and of Wikipedia as a reliable source. So, if I add this reasoning to a discussion page, I can remove the said content? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IslandMountain (talk • contribs) 19:11, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
Lynne_DiSantoThis[1] was in inappropriate revert. My edits updated the information, which was out of date, and removed inappropriate content. I started a discussion yesterday but Velella apparently only wanted to get into an edit war. Please revert to my last edits or respond to my discussion on the "talk" page. Everyone seems to be telling me to discuss this and I have tried. It's Velella that has remained silent and violated the 3-revert rule. Ryno35 (talk) 21:48, 30 April 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion requestHello GB fan, i have noticed that you are willing to handle speedy deletion requests, so please allow me to bother you with a relevant issue. Earlier today, i created Template:Television ratings graph/styles.css in an attempt to deal with an issue that has affected the template for a long time. This didn't seem to work as i had hoped, so i decided to request a speedy deletion of the .css page, both with the help of Twinkle and by tagging it with {{Db-test}} and {{Db-author}} myself. However, i was not able to save these edits, as i was getting an error reading something like "Missing selector list at line 1 character 1". I do not know how i should proceed now, so i was hoping that you could help me with that, either by deleting the page or by explaining the steps i need to take in order to properly submit a deletion request.

BeveridgeWell, he didn't take the opportunity of raising it on the talk page during protection, just waited for the protection to expire and immediately restored his preferred version. I've reverted and said to go to talk page per BRD, but now you will block me if I keep trying to get him to go to talk. You clear it up. DuncanHill (talk) 17:35, 9 May 2019 (UTC)
Dear GB Fan, Why are you siding with DuncanHill instead of staying neutral? I made a minor edit to a page, which DuncanHill then tried to veto. As far as I know, minor edits highlighting information already found worthy of a whole section - William Beveridge being a significant proponent of eugenics - is not an edit that necessitates a lengthy discussion on the talk page. I'm of course sorry for participating in an edit war - I was provoked by the threatening messages written by DuncanHill on my talk page. When the protection period ended, I made the minor edit again - not adding any content, simply highlighting it - and DuncanHill chose to restart the edit war. I found this to be an attempt to veto my edit. The process, BRD, mentioned by DuncanHill and enforced by you, is optional (as mentioned here) and - as I interpreted it - something that applies mostly to more significant edits. I really wonder why you chose to block me without also blocking DuncanHill. He fought an edit war just as much as I did - the only difference was him trying to enforce an OPTIONAL discussion method. He restarted the edit war - I didn't. My edit was minor - I simply highlighted an information already mentioned in the article 18 times. --Cat Elevator (talk) 17:56, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
I would think that is in the spirit of "an editor must not perform more than three reverts, in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material, on a single page within a 24-hour period. Any appearance of gaming the system by reverting a fourth time just outside of the 24-hour slot may also be considered edit warring. " If you've attempted the discussion and the editor persistr file the report, don't revert. You don't have a problem at all as long as you can control yourself and make the right report on the right boards. It's good advice on the policy when it tells you If, despite such efforts, one or more users fail to cease edit warring, refuse to work collaboratively or heed the information given to them, or do not move on to appropriate dispute resolution, then consider making a request for administrative involvement. The standard way to do this is to add a report at the Edit war/3RR noticeboard; please see WP:AN/EW.Hell in a Bucket (talk) 23:42, 12 May 2019 (UTC)
Regarding the Page WPWell, then how do you explain the page Warsaw Pact because it does not mention any relation to WP? It does not have WP included also. I also highly doubt if Weakest precondition should belong to the page since it has been redirected to the page Predicate transformer semantics and acts as an subcategory (to differ with strongest-postconditions). --Timmyboger (talk) 22:27, 13 May 2019 (UTC)

You removed the deletion notice, saying "being a proffessional[sic] sport team is a claim to significance, decline WP:A7." The page was again proposed for deletion, for the same reason, May 25, 2019. The notice of deletion was removed by User:Kvng, saying "The AULD articles should be taken to WP:AFD as a group, not picked off one at a time with PROD." Thought you should be notified.

Ibuprofen discoveryIn the part of 'History' about the discovery of Ibuprofen, my edition was eliminated by you because 'in the patent does not say a single inventor'. A patent is filled by the inventor and co-inventors. In a patent, the inventor is always the last in to be mentioned. There are many sources you can find this info (I know this because I am a chemical scientist). My edition is motivated by the accuracy of giving the actual name of the inventor, instead of saying?..discovered by (by someone) a team led by XXXX'. There are references (in Spanish)[1] that describe the actual inventor of the structure of ibuprofen was only Antonio Ribera Blancafort, but the rest of the team and the boss are included at the light of the company policies. Please, allow this edition in the name of the fairness of the actual inventor, who always was ignored by his own collaborators — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nonius9 (talk • contribs) 11:18, 11 June 2019 (UTC)
