Non-free files in your user space

Hey there AntonV, thank you for your contributions. I am a bot, alerting you that non-free files are not allowed in user or talk space. I removed some files I found on User:AntonV/Irish Theological Quarterly. In the future, please refrain from adding fair-use files to your user-space drafts or your talk page.

• See a log of files removed today here.

• Shut off the bot here.

• Report errors here.

Thank you, -- DASHBot (talk) 05:01, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Irish_Theological_Quarterly_cover.gif)

Thanks for uploading File:Irish_Theological_Quarterly_cover.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Melesse (talk) 05:30, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Journal infoboxes

Hi Anton, thanks for your good work creating journal articles and improving existing ones. Just two short notes: infoboxes go on top of a page and the "country" parameter should only be filled in if a journal really has strong and clear ties to a particular country. For instance, although SAGE may be based in the UK, it's a bit strange to put "United Kingdom" for Theology Today, which is published by SAGE on behalf of a US institution. These are just details, keep up the good work! --Crusio (talk) 14:54, 17 June 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Crusio - that makes sense, will bear that in mind in future. AntonV (talk) 14:47, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Please also be aware that a page which consists only of an infobox, with no actual body text, is not a completed article — if you want to start a page about an academic journal that doesn't have one yet, you need to add at least the beginnings of an article in addition to the infobox. Thanks. Bearcat (talk) 05:27, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Is it ok to have these infobox-only entries as part of my userspace? I plan to flesh them out as proper articles in due course - I don't think I've published any infobox-only entries in the mainspace (I certainly haven't intended to do so). Thanks Bearcat! AntonV (talk) 14:47, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Ah, just seen that I didn't create some of the pages correctly in my userspace, sorry! Will complete the entries now (Contemporary Sociology (journal), Comparative Political Studies, Clinical and Applied Thrombosis-Hemostasis, Biological Research For Nursing and Applied Psychological Measurement - I'm hoping that's it).AntonV (talk) 14:56, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Hi Anton, let me also thank you for your work. I have redirected almost all of your userspace drafts to the edition of the page in mainspace, so that your userspace doesnt unnecessarily add items to Special:Whatlinkshere/Template:Infobox journal and stale data into search results. They are all still at Special:PrefixIndex/User:AntonV/, and you can undo my redirect if you wish to resume editing the draft. There are only three which do not have a 'published' article on Wikipedia, being d:Q15710224, d:Q15710222 and d:Q15710197. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 08:30, 5 February 2014 (UTC)

Nomination of Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Stuartyeates (talk) 23:11, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

see my comments there. The nominator could not be more mistaken about the practice here with these articles. I see no objection at all to your editing, and will defend it. I shall follow your work,and move all your user space article to mainspace when you have finished them, provided they meet the requirements of being indexed by the major services, which is not necessarily the case for all Sage titles. The main information you need to add is the successive editors in chief, with links to their articles in Wikipedia if they have them (and they should, for being editor in chief of a major scientific journal is an accepted criterion for notability of a scientist--see WP:PROF), the impact factors from JCR if they are covered, and a full list of the major indexing services that include them--that means SCI/SSCI and Scopus if they apply, and then the major service in the specialty. It also helps to give a list of the 4 or 5 most cited articles, using either ISI or Scopus. It's absurd that you should need to do this indirectly to escape misinformed criticism. There is actually no rule against editing in mainspace with a conflict of interest, provided you do it properly and objectively. anyone who tells you otherwise has not actually read and understood WP:COI -- a proposal to prohibit such editing has been sometimes suggested, and always rejected, because a/ we have no way of enforcing it, and b/ about half the good articles on organizations and products and people in WP have been written by people with COI.

What I normally tell people about the sort of article is :

Based on what is generally accepted here, an article about a journal should also contain:

1. Full titles, any earlier titles, and the corresponding dates. Make cross references from any variant titles.
2. Standard abbreviations used--make redirects from them.
3. publishing & sponsoring body, as well as earlier publishers & sponsors
4. availability on line
5. no. of articles published a year
6. ISSNs for both print and online versions
7. Online availability of current and earlier issues
8. Open access availability, if relevant.
9. Circulation (sourced somewhere--default place to get it is Ulrichs)
10. coverage in major standard indexes, inclding particularly Scopus and Web of Science (Science Citation Index)
11. latest year's impact factor if available, and rank in the JCR subject field(s). Include the year so it can be updated.
12. any actual references providing substantial coverage from 3rd party independent published reliable sources, print or online, but not blogs or press releases, or material derived from press releases.
13. a list of the 3 or 4 most influential articles similarly, getting citation figures from Web of Science.
14. External links to the journal's main web site, and , if relevant, the main website of the sponsoring body.

It should not contain

1. General information listing all the fields covered, unless it is not obvious from the title
2. Statements of praise for the journal -- see WP:PEACOCK
3. A list of those on the editorial board
4. names of the staff, except editors in chief; subordinate or section editors should not usually be listed.
5. Information about subscription prices
6. Information about how to submit articles
7. Links to the publisher's general website, or to subpages within the journal's site.
8. and, most important, it must contain no text from the web page description of the journal. That is a copyright violation, and needs to be rewritten. Even if you are prepared to donate copyright according to WP:DCM, it is likely to be unsuitably promotional.

For more specific information our Wikipedia:WikiProject Academic Journals/Writing guide. As it specifies there, the best way to start is by using the infobox journal template; but also convert the information there to prose. DGG ( talk ) 04:15, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
