Noteflight article deletionHi there -- you appear to have deleted the article on Noteflight on 17 February 2010. The reason you gave for the deletion was "A7: Article about an eligible subject, which does not indicate the importance or significance...". For background, Noteflight is a free online music score writing program that is used by many musicians, kids and teachers, and many similar programs (both open source and commercial) have associated articles on Wikipedia. I would like to ask for your help in restoring the article so that an eligible author can resolve the issue, so that it does not need to be rewritten from scratch. Can you please assist? Thank you! Jberkovitz (talk) 10:52, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your help. SatyrTN. I see what you mean, the article is really thin (I didn't write it in the first place). I think a new one will need to be written from scratch and of course will need to conform to the Wikipedia guidelines. 64.119.145.114 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:18, 8 September 2010 (UTC). Overcast deletionThe fact that Overcast is a band composed with Killswitch Engage's guitarist and bassist and Shadows Fall's vocalist gives the band enough notability, so to speak, to have an article in Wikipedia. It's been years since the last time I read the notability guide for bands and musical ensembles, but I'm sure if a band/side project is composed with notable musicians, it complies with Wikipedia's notability criteria.--Kmaster (talk) 10:32, 12 September 2010 (UTC) Orphaned non-free image File:Aloha Council Marshall Islands.png Thanks for uploading File:Aloha Council Marshall Islands.png.

(More of them need to be tagged as well.) But are you interested in assessing other articles? Because this project is a little bit different than other Wikiprojects especially in assessment. There is more information about it on the talk page but basically you would assess about 8-10 specific articles approximately once a month. Other people would assess the same articles and I will be doing some analysis of the assessments to learn things about article assessment in Wikipedia. Like do subject matter experts rate differently than Wikipedians? What is the best way to measure article quality? How does this article quality assessment compare with the results from the new article feedback tool? If you would like to be involved, you participation would be very appreciated. Please let me know on the assessment page or on my talk page. Thanks ARoth (Public Policy Initiative) (talk) 22:56, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Thank you for assessing with the PPI, assessing with this project will probably be different than assessing with other projects in Wikipedia. It's different because the many of the articles are stub, start, or C class, and we are not working to assess long lists of articles, but will have multiple reviewers assessing the same set of articles. We are looking for Wikipedians who want to take a more in depth look at assessment and help define what is article quality. Please go to the WP:USPP Assessment page to find more details and your assessment page with the first group of articles for you to evaluate. Thanks and happy editing, ARoth (Public Policy Initiative) (talk) 21:42, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Nashville meetupHey there, Get in touch with Steven Walling about hosting a meetup on January 15th.

Keegan (talk) 06:56, 5 October 2010 (UTC) WP:USPP, still interested?SatyrTN, you signed up to assess with WP:USPP. If you are interested in public policy or assessment, check out your assessment page, because there is a lot happening on the project. Most of the recruitment for the assessment team was targeted, so I know you have a lot to offer to the research goals of this project. I posted the second assessment request and there will now be a weekly update on the project assessment page. If you are no longer interested in working on this project, I promise this is the last message you will get, but I hope you decide to check it out.

Regarding your deletion of ClueNet
I believe your speedy deletion of ClueNet does not fall within WP:CSD#G4, as stated in the deletion rationale. Here is my rationale:

Dr. Michael SchwartzDear Sir: We are very disappointed that you chose to delete the Dr. Michael Schwartz Wikipage. Dr. Schwartz has worked for the past 20 years as a Ringside Physician creating novel and critical testing protocols in Professional Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts in order to save lives. As you know, these fighters are primarily minorities and uneducated who rely on boxing to support their families. Dr. Schwartz has been the leading physician in the world protecting these individuals. Once again, boxing and those who participate have been dealt a "Black Eye" by your decision to delete this post. As such, once again, it just exemplifies the problem that most people dont care about these minority athletes nor anyone who is trying to protect their lives and spread the word of safety in boxing. We hope you reconsider and add this post with the corrections necessary. We have also sent this note to Mr. Wales to see if he can help as well.

Do you have a reference for that? I ask because both Hsieh and Jewitt seem to refer to the object more often by the cometary name. So 133P would seem (IMHO) to be the common name. Having written what I did I notice JPL only refers to the asteroid name even when you specify 133P. Which do you think we should use? -- Kheider (talk) 17:35, 17 December 2010 (UTC)

The same happened to a bunch of other album categories. Rich Farmbrough, 00:42, 25 December 2010 (UTC). Dancing DemonYou deleted the page I put up. Dancing Demon was not unambiguous advertising. There is nothing for sale. It discussed a classic game from 30 years ago that hasn't been on sale anywhere since, and run's on hardware that also is no longer available. I am new to Wiki and it's rules, but I don't understand the logic of deleting an article about my all time favorite video game.

I went looking for some information about him, and only found peripheral references from his television program, etc. As a somewhat casual Wikipedia editor, I'm not too overly familiar with the deletion process, but I see assurances that the information is not gone. I also see the rationale for the deletion (living person with no indication of importance or significance. Since I can't find the content of the deleted article, I can't assess that critique. 1. How does one find the content of deleted articles, assuming you know. 2. Since Eskola is a journalist and television personality of some note (having hosted the premier political/public affairs show in Minnesota, Almanac for about 25 years, 'I feel the article should be undeleted.'

Stub articles questionHey Satyr, I'm reviewing some of the B names . . . I know how to raise the rating, but some are definitely stubs. If so, should I remove them from the list after I've looked at them, or let them stay there? Textorus (talk) 05:26, 31 March 2011 (UTC) And another thing: if an article on the list has been redirected elsewhere, like Barbara Gittings Award, should I remove the LGBT Project box from the original article's talk page, or leave it alone?

I posted a message about it at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject LGBT studies, which you may have seen already, but I hardly get any help from there or other WikiProjects these days. So part of my approach these days is to go to relevant editors individually and hope they weigh in.

WikiProject LGBT studies partnership with new WikiQueer project?Greetings, I am the sysop and public representative for a new Wiki project, WikiQueer - specifically for the LGBTQ communities - that supplements the LGBTQ content on Wikipedia with other resources, talking points and information pertaining to the LGBTQ population. Essentially content currently not allowed on Wikipedia or articles that don't meet Wikipedia's notability requirements but might meet the notability requirements of a queer historian. Put another way - all that content some of us wished we could post but have had shot down too many times to keep trying. We will be soft launching in the next few days with a grand opening later this year. I am very interested in partnering and supporting Wikipedia and the Wikimedia Foundation in whatever ways we can. A number of international, national and local nonprofit organizations and community leaders have already signed onto the project or are preparing to publicly join in the coming months. I am hoping that as a deputy coordinator of WikiProject LGBT studies you can help us navigate a possible partnership. We're especially keen on helping convey that we support Wikipedia and are trying to expand on and enhance that experience rather than challenge or compete. In a number of ways we are attempting to promote and give due credit to the WikiProject LGBT studies and will continue to expand on those efforts. Any feedback on the WikiQueer project itself is also appreciated. We're also actively seeking individuals within or supportive of queer communities to join our Global Advisory Board if you or others you know may be interested. Thank you in advance for your time and I appreciate all of the great work you and other Wikipedians are doing!! --Varnent (talk) 07:02, 1 July 2011 (UTC) External linksHey Satyr, I trust your judgment and would rather ask you about this than get a jumble of replies from the Help Desk or wherever. I just substantially expanded In re: Gill with more info and sources. It's good to go as is, but there's an excellent YouTube video, uploaded there by the producers of In the Life, that explains the case and has an interview with Martin Gill. This is responsible journalism, and meets the requirements for reliable source IMO. Problem is, I'm not sure if WP:YT allows such an external link to the article or not. What do you say? Textorus (talk) 15:15, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
SatyrTN - I am curious as to why you have changed my entry on the listings for Gay and Lesbian people for Anthony Venn Brown - he hasn't been an evangelist for over 20 years now and resigned his credentials with the AOG back in 1991 . You said that my entry was a strange entry but Anthony Venn Brown is known these days as an author and an advocate for gay and lesbian people including Christian people - that's why I changed the entry Cheers Frollus (Frollus (talk) 03:03, 15 October 2011 (UTC)).
Seems to have been deleted by you in 2007 but references to it seem to accumulated since so probably should be undeleted. Of course it could have just been your Bot but thats still your fault ! The reasons given in 2007 were DB-A7, DB-A3 which suggests the issue was no content and no indication of importance. I could start rectifying this if page available. I noted issue with links that lead nowhere. I have identified at least 5 articles that refer to recently famous persons worthy of own wikipedia articles that were educated at this prep school vis: It seems to be potentially notable by quality of education and British establishment connections. Has educated a few famous sportsmen too (gold metal Olympics).

Whether you think the category is useful or not, please do not empty out existing categories without seeking an WP:CFD consensus to do so first — especially when the tree has been in existence for almost three years already. Trust me, I'm not too crazy about some of the "LGBT occupation by country" diffusions either (like we ever actually needed to sort journalists or comedians that way?!?), but "I don't like them" isn't a valid reason to depopulate a category that doesn't have a broad deletion consensus behind it.

LGBT terminologyHi. Our paths have probably crossed a few times. I remember the TN part of your name because I lived in Tennessee for a couple of years in the 1980s. I'm interested in LGBT concepts and issues, particularly terminology. I've joined the LGBT Studies project [4], and I've started a list of terms One thing that makes it hard to write about homosexuality - or anything related to it - is the shifting use of terminology. Does "gay" mean male homosexual, as in "gay and lesbian"? (What happens if we don't tack on Lesbian?) It even looks like LGBT started off as LGB. More about me: In the distant past, I worked on "Gay gene", trying to make a neutral and comprehensive article about the then-controversial idea that homosexuality is inherited genetically and therefore immutable; I've also worked on "Reparative therapy", based on the still-controversial idea that homosexuality might not be 100% inherited and immutable. Then there's how (if?) homosexual and/or bisexual preference, desire, orientation, identity or "behavior" are related to their heterosexual counterparts: same as, same but different, different only because society looks at it that way, etc. What's the best way to get started? Or is this not a good area for me to contribute in? --Uncle Ed (talk) 18:31, 24 January 2012 (UTC)

I've closed the LGBT sportspeople discussion with a keep decision, and now there's the thorny problem of putting back the entries of the categories you emptied prior to the discussion. Are you willing to put those articles back in those categories?--Mike Selinker (talk) 02:10, 10 February 2012 (UTC)
LGBT people by occupation and nationalityI couldn't support killing off the whole tree, no. I still do agree that some of the subcategories aren't particularly needed; as you may recall, sportspeople was an edge case that I really had to struggle with before "voting" one way or the other, and I would probably still support killing "comedians", "journalists", "radio personalities" and "television personalities" as not really needed. But by the same token, I'd have to oppose killing off "musicians", "politicians" and "writers", since typically those are the things that constitute the most distinctively and relevantly unique aspects of one country's LGBT culture vs. another's; for instance, if I had to pick out the things that made LGBT culture here in Canada most uniquely Canadian, rather than generically international, I'd pick out things like Timothy Findley novels, the musical career of Carole Pope and the political impact of Svend Robinson. Conversely, broadcasters like Jane Farrow or Rick Mercer are just people who happen to be queer, but whose cultural significance is quite "general interest" in nature and not LGBT-oriented per se, which is why the radio and television personalities cats are less useful. Being an "LGBT writer from Canada", in other words, is an aspect of Findley's notability in its own right, and being an "LGBT politician from Canada" is an aspect of Robinson's — whereas Mercer is both an LGBT person from Canada and a television personality, but the fact that he's specifically an "LGBT television personality from Canada" isn't really all that important. I'd suggest maybe holding off for now, and instead initiating a project discussion to hopefully come to a better articulation of where such categorization is useful and where it isn't.

MSU InterviewDear SatyrTN, My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community HERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.
If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you. Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.
Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) 07:26, 12 February 2012 (UTC) Young June Sah --Yjune.sah (talk) 20:14, 15 February 2012 (UTC) I am currently copy editing and amending Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky to improve the article's overall quality and ensure it remains an FA. If you have time, I would greatly appreciate your looking over the article and giving feedback. My aim, other than the stylistic goal of improving the writing quality, is to add information and sources to keep coverage of Tchaikovsky's life and music as well-rounded as possible. I want to remain as sensitive to LGBT readers and issues important to them, especially in how facts and phrasings about Tchaikovsky's life might be taken, and have very little experience in this matter. Therefore, I hope you will please help. Thanks. Jonyungk (talk) 21:55, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notificationHi. When you recently edited Paul Babeu, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ABC (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

I don't know much about the criteria used, but I was to the belief that it would be at least C-class at this time.

Credo Reference Update & Survey (your opinion requested)Credo Reference, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:
It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve. At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange). Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot. If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at wikiocaasi@yahoo.com. Cheers!

My discussion went off on a tangent with Malik Shabazz when it really should have included you as well. The Jean Claude Baker book on Josephine Baker seems biased and unacceptable. For example, he states at the beginning that he "hated her" and refers to himself eighteen times on the first page. Since he did not meet her until she was 52 it seems inappropriate to rely on his claims about her life when she was 20 or 30. The blanket statement "Baker was bisexual," written as if it indisputable, really has to go, don't you think? There is no evidence given except the claim of a fan who changed his name to hitch onto her celebrity. Doesn't this kind of TMZ gossip presented as fact diminish the biographies of people who have the courage to acknowledge their sexuality up front?Catherinejarvis (talk) 19:39, 7 January 2013 (UTC) 19:38, 7 January 2013 (UTC) 19:37, 7 January 2013 (UTC) I appreciate your additions on January 9.

Wiki Loves Pride 2014Hi SatyrTN. (I think you are aware of this effort, but...) In case you are not aware, there is an upcoming campaign to improve coverage of LGBT-related topics on Wikipedia, culminating with an international edit-a-thon on June 21. See Wiki Loves Pride 2014 for more information. If you are interested, you might consider creating a page for a major city (or cities!) near you, with a list of LGBT-related articles that need to be created or improved.

A tag has been placed on Recompression requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable. If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.

Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas. In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.

A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right. It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best. If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR.
