Hi @Davidmpol! There is no formal format when creating company articles. But there is the Manual of Style that should be used for writing articles, and so is the defacto format.

A tag has been placed on Wole Sentimenta 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 a band or musician that does not credibly 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 "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 deleted 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.

My AFC Draft:Motor Rifle Troops (Soviet Union) was rejected by you for being "improperly sourced", and lacking reliable sources.

Hi, @ToadetteEdit You recently declined my AFC request for Ahamd Shah II's invasion of Mewar by reasoning that "'This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article.", but if you would look into the sources there is an individual section for the same as we can't use the same source.

@Rawn3012, the reason is that sources should be indepth and that it should lack original research WP:INDEPTH, WP:OR). I recommend finding at least two sources that have that.

You have indicated that my draft:aliasing (factorial experiments) "is not adequately supported by reliable sources." Two previous editors said this, and I have tried each time to correct this. I need more information as to what is unreliable or otherwise deficient in my sources. My sources are all published and easily available.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not sure what "it may be" means here. Is that your determination, or are you unsure? And what would be the target for an appropriate number of inline citations?

You’ve been relisting at MfD, here, for example.

A meaningful relist is done by a someone looking to close, who finds it is on a path to a consensus but not there, and in need of refocusing, or calling back earlier participants to consider a new, later, argument or evidence. Your relists have no explanation, no refocusing comment, and appear to be meaningless. A meaningless relist shuffles the order of the MfD page, and hides the old mfd discussion amongst newer one, and is actually counter productive.

I don’t remember seeing you at MfD before. Have you participated in many mfd discussions?

1) I actually participated in MfDs, albeit only a few of them, and rarely ever. 2)I understand relists. In my point of view, the discussion I've relisted had multiple valid arguments, and consensus wasn't clear. I've also seen relists without valid reasons. I'll try to make reasoning on every comment.

Every time you relist a discussion, it means you were qualified and prepared to close it, but found it not suitable for closing it. I’d ask, “why is this not yet suitable for closing”? Hopefully your answer could say something about how the next participants could help make it suitable for closing. If you will add reasoning on every relist, that would be fantastic, and if every relister did the same, I think it will really improve all XfD.

No shame zone. ToadetteEdit, you did your job, in good faith, and editors are discussing it realizing that you closed in good faith. Jut Wikipedians discussing something. On this one, I think I see where the misunderstanding comes from. This youtube link shows that assassination attempt and Trumps reaction. He does do a few fist pumps, but then he holds his arm up, alternating between open handed and closed fist. It looks like the iconic photographs, which the article is about, came after the fist pumps and were taken as he held his arm up. Make sense per article title?

Likewise, I am very confused by this close. I count 44 editors who voted in the RM, and 7 supported the move (Sir MemeGod, CaptainJZH, S5A-0043, SimplyLouis27, Keeper of Albion, Kowal2701, and Picard's Facepalm), while the other 37 supported something else. I get weighing votes and all, but 37-7? I've never seen such a dramatic weighing. You wrote the support side mainly cited WP:CONSISTENCY, as well as attributing sources for proof but I can't imagine how "fist-pump" is more WP:CONSISTENT than "raised-fist"--can you explain that? Also, of the 7 that supported "fist-pump," I see zero sources in their !votes, so what "attributing sources for proof" were you referring to?

@Levivich, @Randy Kryn, the reason I took the approach is that the votes for the current title is more supported than the other title. In the opposes, there isn't any strong opinions other than some "it's fine" and "look at the photo". According to a comment, more sources support "pumped" more than "raised". In short, as @Gluonz said below, the consensus wasn't misread, and raw votes are nothing. I consider the ~7 supports more standing the the more piled opposes.

With all due respect, if the title moved it would be moved to the title in the nomination, which was what was being discussed and either Supported or Opposed. "Fist-pump" has little support, no sources, and received explanatory opposes. Please read the discussion again with the nomination and lack of sources for 'fist pump' in mind, thanks.

@Randy Kryn:. Did you understand that the original proposal (shown here) was "Donald Trump fist pump photographs"?

Regardless, the photos which the article focuses on were made after Trump's several quick fist-pumps and as he was holding up his arm, alternately opening his hand and making a fist with his hand.

Firstly, I thank you for all your volunteer roles that for you do on Wikipedia. I am reaching out to you because you state on your user page that “ToadetteEdit … tries to do their work right”. I appreciate how hard it must be to get up to speed in a diverse and specialist subject areas including medieval castles and Welsh medieval history.

I have appended a subset of the many motte and bailey sites already in article space. The articles are small in content and low in citations/references. The common factor is that they have all being though the authoritative and rigorous national scheduling process for historical monuments, like LCM. Effectively, their notability has been established by regulatory bodies e.g. Cadw in Wales, English Heritage in England etc. Clearly, this has been recognised by the article reviewers.

Given that the feedback from my first reviewer was ill-informed, let me expand upon the process of scheduling. Cadw have been tasked by the Welsh government with the specification of the criteria needed for the legal protection of historical assets in Wales. Cadw identify the buildings and monuments that meet their criteria. Scheduled historical assets receive legal protection under the Historic Environment (Wales) Act 2016 and Ancient Monuments and Archaeological Areas Act 1979. Sites are assessed by professional archaeologists. If scheduled, the Welsh government takes on the responsibility to fund Cadw to maintain a perpetual watching brief on the scheduled site. A field monument warden, a professional archaeologist is assigned to the scheduled monument, which includes regular site visits. I can provide contact details for the PhD qualified field warden for LCM, if required.

I hope you will review your decision about LCM, and come to the same conclusion as the reviewers of the articles below. Note a medieval motte and bailey castle that does not have existing evidence of the bailey is called a mound, tump or twt:

• Bledisloe Tump.
• Castle Tump.
• Castle Tump, Dymock.
• Stow Green, St Briavels.
• Twmpath Castle.

* Wormelow Tump.

Hi, ToadetteEdit,

I saw your comment at your request for global permissions when you withdrew your request. I'm sorry that you are discouraged but I wanted to reassure you that the opposition doesn't seem to be about the quality of your editing but just the fact that you seem to be pursuing acquiring a lot of permissions over a short period of time. You already have pending changes, rollbacker and new page reviewer permissions on this Wikipedia which is quite a lot to achieve for an account of just one year and three months. There are editors who've been active a decade or more who have no advanced permissions at all! I waited until I had been editing Wikipedia for two years before starting an RFA and even then I was criticized for not having enough experience.

Trust comes with time and productive editing and requesting a global permission requires even a higher level of trust as you could impact smaller wikis that don't have a lot of oversight. The potential for inadvertent damage is high there unless you really know what you're doing and I think that those who opposed your request just want to see over a longer period of time that you can handle the permissions you have already have been granted. Finally, there will always be editors who view your behavior as hat collecting so you have to realize that and be prepared for those objections from editors who are not shy about voicing their opinions and doubts. Just know that your entire contribution history might be examined and scrutinized which can put many editors off from even attempting to ask for any permissions.

On the plus side, you look like you are doing good work on this Wikipedia so keep at it! Just wait a while, six months or, better yet, a year, before inquiring about getting even more responsibility.

I hope it's ok to post here? If not, it's your talk page so feel free to remove this message, no judgement from me. I think we both watch each others pages due to anti-vadal work, so I noticed your recent addition to your user page.

You've accomplished so much in the short time you've been here. You're a benefit to this project and nobody can fault your enthusiasm.

Over the last year or more, I know you've been praised and encouraged within the project. There are a lot of people rooting for you. And I think that says a lot about you. Wikipedians generally don't bother with such advice and encouragements for those editors who don't put the work in. We all recieve criticism from time to time. It can be frustrating and demoralising BUT...people here are offering you advice on addressing those issues. They wouldn't bother if they didn't think it was worth it. Maybe look at the criticisms as a way to learn and a way to improve your Wikipedia work? I'm sure you're aware of the difference between criticism and constructive criticism. I think the advice of slow down and sit back a bit in some areas can be great advice? I don't know much about the closing matters that have been brought up, but one way to assess how you're doing would be to stop any closes for a short while, assess how you would close an issue and then see how it compares to how others are closing XfDs. How have they done things differently to what you might have done? Look at how they came to their conclusions and why they might be different to your own conclusions. We can learn so much by slowing down a bit and watching (the equivalent of listening irl right?). Don't be hard on yourself, if you get something wrong (I do every day), then ask if you can observe what they have done and then ask questions if you're still not sure.

If this is TL;DR then give yourself a break, take a small step back, acknowledge that some people are really trying to encourage you, watch, learn and compare.

Just delete this if it annoys you or it's unwelcome advice, I won't be offended at all.

I was coming here to talk about Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Red Ink Awards. Generally speaking, non-admins should never be closing as no consensus.

ToadetteEdit, I am disappointed. Less than a week after I told you to slow down, you have three complaints about your closes. Let me try again, this time with a little more force.

First, I cannot emphasize this enough: When you are closing discussions, you need to follow WP:ADMINACCT. See WP:NACD: Non-admin closers are accountable to the policies at WP:ADMINACCT and WP:UNINVOLVED. Repeated non-adherence to these policies may result in being topic banned from closing discussions.

There are four outstanding requests for reconsideration of closes you made on this talk page. § Requesting review of Wikipedia:WikiProject Hillary Clinton MFD has received an inadequate response which completely misses the point of Jonesey95's request. Randy Kryn has a similar request at § The presidential navbox RM (which was actually a TFD). You have edited since both of these were left, so there is no excuse for you not to have already answered these questions. And there are two discussions here, which in fairness were left after your most recent edit (though asilvering's was only a single minute later).

Considering your track record of diving in too fast, I am certain there would be support for another pblock (and if you are not immediately responsive to all four outstanding requests for reconsideration, I would support one to prevent further unaccountable closes). And depending on how you respond to these concerns, there very well might be support for a sitewide block per WP:IDHT.

Slow. Down. Consider taking a break from closing XfDs. But at the very least, respond to all four outstanding requests for comment on your own closure before making any further edits.

Hey, don't be disheartened, TE. The messages left on your talk page (and your archives full of barnstars and advices) are evident to the fact that a lot of editors care about you and want to see you get better. The community really loves your enthusiasm, but you need a little short break. Have a baklava (tea goes best with it), got out and touch the grass, be back in a while and start slow. Roam around various noticeboards and discussion to analyse consensus and how to be a better closer. Your next RfA will have my full support if you are willing to edit more productively and maturely.

ToadetteEdit, I do not doubt for a moment that you are acting in good faith. Taking this to ANI was one of the most difficult things I have done as an admin because it is so clear you are acting in good faith.

Hi. The ANI thread has been closed with an indefinite topic ban from closing discussions. While this is obviously not the outcome you would have preferred, it's worth noting the great many positive comments about your contributions. There's a strong sentiment that you are a net asset to Wikipedia. Hopefully you take that message from the thread as well as from the positive comments on this talkpage.

We wouldn't be in any hurry of course, but you and I could look at others' closes, make predictions about closes and converse about reading discussions and !voting. We could create a subpage for semi-privacy while giving nervous editors no reason to believe you were hiding something. This would be leaning into the sanction, might demonstrate your willingness to accept the sanction without tactics, and perhaps actually improve your potential usefulness to the community. I find it heartening when I see wikipedians make adjustments to their behavior based on offered good faith critique. If I were in your situation, I would be trying to impress other wikipedians that I was a net positive, so I might continue to make edits in situations where I could add sources or express more than just an opinion.

@BusterD, I do not want to be mentored. I'd rather stay away from the closing processes, as I couldn't handle any longer. I remembered making a statement in the RfA days, and it exactly happened, with most of the community against me and threatening for a ban on me. I would rather be orphaned from the community, doing what I could do. Reviewing pages, patrolling recent changes, and improving articles are the only fields that don't get any criticism. Right now, attempting to use a close template would be a one-way ticket to a block. The whole reason I was imposed on a ban is not responding to criticism here; I often get stressed before answering, cooling myself by making a few edits. I was depressed and would be depressed after this. I couldn't handle the situation anymore.

Hi, ToadetteEdit,

I just noticed that you have returned to editing after your WikiBreak. I have taken two extended WikiBreaks during my 11 years as an editor and I know that if I hadn't gone away while I was under a lot of stress, I probably would have said things or done edits that I would have regretted.

Wikipedia is a fun hobby but it's good to just see it as that, a hobby, not a lifestyle. We are lucky to have competent editors like you who are willing to devote some time to work on this project. But it's good to see your time here in the long-term, not short-term. I know things haven't gone the way you wanted them to but that doesn't mean that they will never happen, it's just that trust takes time to develop, especially among longtime editors who have seen more than their share of well-intentioned editors who couldn't handle additional responsibilities and let it go to their heads. While we keep our eyes out for vandals, experienced editors who go a little mad with power can cause much more damage to your fellow editors, and especially newbies, than the more obvious trolls. But keep doing the good work you're doing and it will happen in time. Have faith! Liz ^{Read!

I just read your response to BusterD (above). Unfortunately, it doesn't matter what privileges you have or how long you have been here, none of us are immune from criticism. If you look at my own talk page at any random time, you'll find more complaints about me than "thank yous". It's good that you have found areas of the project that you feel experienced in and comfortable doing, but just know that most criticisms are about ones edits or actions, they aren't about you as a person. And all of us, even those who have been here since the beginning, can always improve as editors. It's not easy, but it helps if you don't take these remarks personally. But, as I said, sometimes, it isn't easy sometimes. That's the best advice I can offer. Good luck! Liz ^{Read!
