New Page Reviewing

Hello, Janweh64.

I've seen you editing recently and you seem knowledgeable about Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
Would you please consider becoming a New Page Reviewer? Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; currently Wikipedia needs experienced users at this task. (After gaining the flag, patrolling is not mandatory. One can do it at their convenience). But kindly read the tutorial before making your decision. Thanks. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 08:37, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi Insertcleverphrasehere, I appreciate the kind words. Sure I would love to help out. However, I have only been hesitant because I am on occasion a paid editor on Wikipedia. Of course, as you can see, I am already trusted with several flags (pending changes reviewer, pagemover, etc...) which give me privileges which I would never abuse in my paid editor capacity. If you feel that the community will not see my declared COIs as an issue, I would like the opportunity to help with the new pages backlog.  —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 10:01, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
There is a relevant discussion on the Reviewer discussion board. The gist is that a condition of granting the flag is "The editor must review pages solely on a volunteer basis." If you are paid to edit certain articles/topics you cannot review articles as part of that paid editing, but can review other articles just fine. I personally don't see it as an issue, as you have clearly declared your paid editing on your user page. If you decide to request the user right at PERM I recommend declaring the paid editing and that you do not intend to review any articles as part of your paid editing activities. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 10:09, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
I hope you decide to join us. We could definitely use the help. We are currently treading water at around a 13,500 page backlog. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 10:22, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
@Insertcleverphrasehere: just applied at PERM.  —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 10:25, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
Janweh64 this is really not a good time for you to apply there. Would you please consider withdrawing your request? The reason is that this is the one you gave above - the issue of paid editors having advanced permissions, especially related to any kind of page review, is very hot right now. We just community banned a paid editor who was abusing an advanced permission (see here), there is currently an RfC at VPP about preventing this via policy (here) and there is an arbcom case about to be accepted about paid editors having any kind of advanced permissions like this (see here). Pinging User:Insertcleverphrasehere so they are aware of what I am writing here, and Insertcleverphrasehere please see your talk page. Jytdog (talk) 15:00, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
Yeah, I apologise for giving what turned out to be rather bad advice. I was unaware of the recent Arbcom case, and in line with the rules that we has chosen recently for NPP, I naively thought that we could assume good faith for editors that had pledged to keep their reviewing and paid editing privileges separate. I regret that you can't join us over there, as I personally think you would have been a great asset to the team, but this was supremely bad timing to be giving you that advice. I'm sorry. — Insertcleverphrasehere (or here) 17:14, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
@Jytdog and Insertcleverphrasehere: no actual harm done. Perhaps some other time.  —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 21:42, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

Patrick Zhuwao

Thanks for your concern about Patrick Zhuwao. I haven't yet finished adding all of his career information. I added the 2016 incident because it was an isolated event whereas his career would require more time to draw out. I will be expanding that article today and tomorrow so I wouldn't worry too much about it. Peace and thanks. Jgefd (talk) 16:01, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

@Jgefd: I will sit back and wait for improvements. I still believe that the section describing how he was removed from a parliamentary sessions is way too long. It could just as well been summarized in 2-3 sentences without quoteblocks. You are giving undue weight to a single negative incident that cannot be reasonably balanced with other content. Perhaps you plan to expand the article triple-fold. If so I could see how this could work. Otherwise, I don't see how you plan to maintain NPOV.
BTW, It is preferable to keep discussions in one place. I wish you had replied on your own talkpage and pinged me there. —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 21:51, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
@Janweh64: I just expanded the article further. I also truncated the section about that 2016 incident. I plan to continue expanding the article, but any feedback is appreciated. Peace and thanks. Jgefd (talk) 23:25, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
@Jgefd: Much better but you still don't need a separate section for controversies. Doing that is discouraged because you are highlighting negatives unfairly. Its like saying "Hey! Hey! Read this dirty bit!" to the reader.
Also his banishment from the EU requires a secondary source to establish that this is a notable fact about him. You should not be looking for legal documents and citing them as direct sources. Primary sources in BLP articles are only intended to supplement and augment secondary sources. —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 23:45, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
@Janweh64: I removed the EU banishment until I find an independent source, and I incorporated the other two "controversies" into his political career section as they are related to his work as a politician. Jgefd (talk) 00:35, 24 November 2017 (UTC)

Generation 40

Hello, recently you tagged a source "iHarare" I used as copyvio. I don't understand why you labelled it as such, you gave no reason for it. I will be obliged if you explained how it is in violation of copyrights. If it is indeed copyvio, I will replace it at the earliest. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 05:46, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

@MonsterHunter32: The source is not the problem. The problem is that your words are almost a word for word copy of what the sources says. This is a violation of Wikipedia policies on copyrighted material. This is an easy problem to solve. Simply rewrite the sentence in a different way using your own words.
The biggest problem is the part that says "...added that he used the term in its demographic sense in reference to a broader spectrum of young people across political persuasions and gender and not a faction." This is an exact copy of the iHarare article.  —አቤል ዳዊት?(Janweh64) (talk) 06:08, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
Sometimes we aren't able to make up our own wording. There was no intention of violating any copyrights. I'll change it. MonsterHunter32 (talk) 04:54, 25 November 2017 (UTC)
I have rewritten it. Hope you are satisfied. Thank you.MonsterHunter32 (talk) 04:57, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Jane Stanton Hitchcock

Hello! Great article, great subject. I just wanted to let you know that I took out the paragraphs about her stepfather because they were so lengthy -- I would have condensed it but I couldn't figure out the basic narrative. It's really interesting, though (and of course you should add it back as you see fit). Thanks! JSFarman (talk) 04:32, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

@JSFarman: Thank you so much for the kind words. As to that section you removed, actually it was more to do with her and Kenneth I. Starr than it does with her step-father. Starr embezzled a lot of celebrities including Hitchcock's family. After the death of her step-father and later her mother (one of his biggest victims), Jane Hitchcock was instrumental in bringing down his embezzlement scheme. It is a very important part of Jane's personal life. In fact, this story including interviews with Jane Stanton Hitchcock was the subject of an episode of American Greed, Season 6 Episode 1: "Naked Greed: Celebrity Scam Artist". Watch it here if you have access to Hulu: [1].
I don't know if you noticed but I have a declared conflict of interest (paid) with this article. I would like to minimize the amount I directly edit the page now that it is published. I would appreciated if you took a second look and possibly restored the content even if in a truncated form. I would prefer to stay hands-off from this point forward. —አቤል ዳዊት (Janweh64) (talk) 05:39, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
I did see your disclosure. I restored the section, but it truly needs an edit for clarity. I understood the significance of the event in your response to me above, and on the draft, it is obscured by all of the detail. JSFarman (talk) 16:43, 14 January 2018 (UTC)
@JSFarman: I have started to trim it down. How does this version below sound? I know it needs more trimming down but I think this will suffice in the interim.

At the time of his death in 1987, Hitchcock's step-father, Arthur Stanton, had left his wife and Hitchcock's mother Joan Alexander Stanton, an inheritance estimated at about $70–80 million.[1][2] The estate was to be overseen by Kenneth Ira Starr[3] who the Stanton's had met through their daughter.[1][4] Starr, on Joan Stanton's behalf, eventually began making investments in a number of questionable ventures in which he had a personal vested interest, many of which resulted in a loss.[3] Sometime after 2006, Hitchcock and her mother became suspicious of Starr's dealings. A family friend, Jim Fennell, had discovered a scheme to use their East Hampton home as collateral to obtain a $5 million line of credit under the premise that the funds would be used to make more investments. Instead, Starr had been using Stanton's money to fund his lavish lifestyle.[3][4] When Hitchcock learned of this, she convinced her mother to seek legal assistance and brought the case to the attention of the New York County District Attorney. Her mother sued Starr in April 2008[3][4] but she died in May 2009.[5] Hitchcock settled the lawsuit under undisclosed terms but continued to assist in the ensuing criminal investigation. Starr was charge in criminal court for defrauding several celebrity figures.[3][6] He pleaded guilty[1] in September 2010 and he was sentenced to seven and half years in federal prison in March 2011.[7][8] In January 2012, the fraud case was featured in an episode in the sixth season of American Greed which included interviews with Hitchcock detailing how she pursued Starr until his conviction was secured.[4]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Vanessa Rubio-Márquez (January 20)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by The Drover's Wife was:
This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability. Wikipedia requires significant coverage (not just mere mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject—see the guidelines on the notability of people, the golden rule and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. Please improve the submission's referencing (see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners and Help:Introduction to referencing/1), so that the information is verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. If additional reliable sources cannot be found for the subject, then it may not be suitable for Wikipedia at this time.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Although she seems likely to be notable as far as I'm concerned, Wikipedia requires articles to reference significant coverage in reliable sources that is independent of the subject. What is in there isn't bad - but it needs quite a bit more of it.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.

April 2018 Milhist Backlog Drive

G'day all, please be advised that throughout April 2018 the Military history Wikiproject is running its annual backlog elimination drive. This will focus on several key areas:

  • tagging and assessing articles that fall within the project's scope
  • adding or improving listed resources on Milhist's task force pages
  • updating the open tasks template on Milhist's task force pages
  • creating articles that are listed as "requested" on the project's various lists of missing articles.

As with past Milhist drives, there are points awarded for working on articles in the targeted areas, with barnstars being awarded at the end for different levels of achievement.

The drive is open to all Wikipedians, not just members of the Military history project, although only work on articles that fall (broadly) within the scope of military history will be considered eligible. This year, the Military history project would like to extend a specific welcome to members of Wikipedia:WikiProject Women in Red, and we would like to encourage all participants to consider working on helping to improve our coverage of women in the military. This is not the sole focus of the edit-a-thon, though, and there are aspects that hopefully will appeal to pretty much everyone.

The drive starts at 00:01 UTC on 1 April and runs until 23:59 UTC on 30 April 2018. Those interested in participating can sign up here.
