User talk:MuradAli2000 — Preceding undated comment added 21:26, 15 October 2021 (UTC)

MuradAli2000 Good day. I have sent you an email prior your second edit on the page. Pls re-read the message again.

Lastly, the message is a standard level 2 warning message and also for having 57 main space edits is not considered an experienced editors. Cassiopeia talk 03:11, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

New Fighters

Hey Hey, hope all is doing well. I am just providing another batch of fighters

All the best! HeinzMaster (talk) 15:56, 16 October 2021 (UTC)

@HeinzMaster and Ticelon:  Done review and as always thank you for your contributions. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 00:57, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
@Cassiopeia: Was just wondering if you are gonna fill in the rest of the results on the List of Current Bellator fighters and if Julius Anglickas is eligible for a page. In regards to the first, I would have no problem with doing so.HeinzMaster (talk) 05:26, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
HeinzMaster I have filled the main card bouts and if you want to continues the rest, that is fine with me. As for Julius Anglickas he is not notable yet as Bellator men division is not yet considered notable at this moment. If he fought in notable promotion in the championship bout (such as UFC) then he is considered notable. He is ranked # 27 in Fight Matrix. In short we need to wait unfortunately. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 05:33, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
@Cassiopeia: I'll do the rest, all the best and thank you! HeinzMaster (talk) 05:34, 17 October 2021 (UTC)
HeinzMaster Sure and thank you. Have a wonderful weekend. Cassiopeia talk 05:36, 17 October 2021 (UTC)

I'm sorry if it seemed this way but it was not an attack at anyone. I was just editing a wikipedia page.

Please don't ban me for that. Mcgerveyj03 (talk) 02:40, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Mcgerveyj03 Good day. I have replied on your talk page. Stay safe. Cassiopeia talk 03:04, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Ok thanks I will know for the future. I don't think there is any source for it but many people do think Stipe is the best Heavyweight MMA fighter and many think Fedor is. I think that would be a good fight to see if they were both in their prime. Mcgerveyj03 (talk) 23:53, 18 October 2021 (UTC)

Wikidata weekly summary #490

Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata over the last week.
  • Tool of the week
  • Development
    • Mismatch Finder: We are continuing the work on the review part of the system. We are working on letting reviewers submit their decision if the mismatch is on Wikidata, the other database, both or neither.
    • In the previous week we migrated all Wikimedia wikis to use the new change dispatching system. This system is responsible for notifying the other wikis about edits made on Wikidata that affect their articles so the article is refreshed and edits are added to recent changes and watchlists. This week we monitored the new system and investigated and fixed a few issues that came up.

You can see all open tickets related to Wikidata here. If you want to help, you can also have a look at the tasks needing a volunteer.

A late reply regarding Daniboy0202

Hi Cassiopeia, Sorry, I had clicked the notification [2] away too early. The Sherdog source doesn't seem to be cited in the article; the article thus currently lacks a citation for "TKO" (and "KO"). So what actually happened there is an experienced user reverting a new user with the reason "Unsourced", while both users added material without providing the citation for it. 😉

Regarding the reliability of the sources, relatively independent of what a WikiProject says, a large sports organizator's website does seem to be a reliable source for the result of their own matches. A primary source, yes, but a reliable one. Sherdog, on the other hand, is a property of mandatory.com, a tabloid-styled male lifestyle website that wants to "entertain and inspire". The table at WP:RSP links to a discussion you know about and which led to a yellow entry in the table.

It may be reasonable to:

  • Generally question the approach of the WikiProject WP:MMA, which makes the strange claim that "Any result that is not referenced or that is not the same as in Sherdog, must be returned to how it is described in Sherdog.", which is a misrepresentation of the verifiability policy, and
  • Add the missing citation to UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Oleinik. I personally won't do so, because I personally don't consider Sherdog to be a more reliable source for the raw end result than the organizator's website.

Best regards,

An attempt to fix the WikiProject description: [3] – feel free to adjust. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:02, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
I have reverted your revert per WP:CONLEVEL. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:37, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
Cassiopeia, "Any result that is not referenced or that is not the same as in Sherdog, must be returned to how it is described in Sherdog." is factually incorrect. I'm fine with restoring most of the original text, but I'll insist in having that specific sentence removed. Even if there was a green entry at WP:RSP (there isn't), this statement would be questionable. Editors are free to use any reliable source, and Sherdog may not always be the most reliable one available. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:51, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
ToBeFree Pls give me sometime to give you an explanation as I am heading out to work soon and will reply to you on the matter. Thank you. Cassiopeia talk 19:50, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
No worries, I won't revert again – I'll just keep insisting that "Any result that is not referenced or that is not the same as in Sherdog, must be returned to how it is described in Sherdog." is a factually incorrect sentence that should be removed. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:52, 20 October 2021 (UTC)
ToBeFree I thought I have replied you and noticed that I didnt. For that I apologies for the delay. I noticed you have raise a discussion at the project talk page and I have make my comment. Once again sorry for the late reply. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 02:28, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

Help me

Hi, I wrote an article about (Ali Tajdary), but I can not fix the references with the article, can you help me in this case to correct the edit, the article is in my draft box, thank you --Hoseinkandovan (talk) 11:53, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for help me

hello, thank you for your help in correcting the links. finally, i was able to correct their format in Ali Tajdary article. Hoseinkandovan (talk) 18:57, 26 October 2021 (UTC)

Request to review Ali Tajdary article

Hi, my article about Ali Tajdary was not approved, which of the links had problems? the article has links to national newspapers, magazines, reputable iranian sites in the field of film and music, as well as news published by ali tajdari in reputable iranian news agencies. are other links necessary for the reputation of a singer or actor? isnt the actor who played the main role in five 52-episode movies and series famous ?! Isn't the singer who has released dozens of songs and two music albums and whose songs have millions of visitors famous ?! ali tajdari is an actor and singer who has played the lead role in several movies and series and also has several songs and two music albums that are most visited on iranian sites. he is very famous in two professions in iran. i made good links in the article. but the managers rejected it. i spent ten days on this article because i am an iranian art journalist and ali tajdary fame in iran is quite clear. Please help me to register this article because the article has no defects and all the rules of Wikipedia are included in it,thank you. Hoseinkandovan (talk) 07:10, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Oleinik

Hi Cassiopeia, thanks for the reply. Regarding the article UFC Fight Night: Lewis vs. Oleinik, please provide a citation for https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=UFC_Fight_Night:_Lewis_vs._Oleinik&diff=1050630623&oldid=1050568043&diffmode=source . I guess it's Sherdog, but it isn't cited yet. There is a citation at the bottom of the table, but it doesn't seem to be your source of information. My primary concern, which I had originally messaged you about, is that you have reverted a change as "Unsourced" without providing a source yourself. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 17:57, 28 October 2021 (UTC)

ToBeFree Source added at the event page in hidden text and here is the source. Pls note I am not an irresponsible tanager who is a mma supporter nor unreasonable but one of the oldest in age (I was a university student during George Bush senior as the President of US) mma editors in the en Wiki. All the regular and experienced mma editors in Wikipedia do check the source prior reverting. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 00:56, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
Thank you very much 🙂 Yeah, no worries, we've had interacted before especially regarding CVUA, and I didn't assume you to be a teenager or irresponsible. In the specific case regarding Daniboy0202, I was a bit upset to see a very experienced editor insisting in the use of one specific, yet not even cited, source justified by the content of an essay. If I remember correctly, Daniboy0202 appeared at WP:AIV, leading to a short discussion (Special:Diff/1050638430) when I failed to find a justification for taking any action. That left me a bit baffled. ~ ToBeFree (talk) 14:34, 29 October 2021 (UTC)
ToBeFree All is good here. Btw the mentioned editor was informed by several editor of the source as well as the editor kept on going around adding unsourced fight method as they see fit countless of time. You can check their contribution log. As a CUVA trainer myself and having about 50k-70K counter vandalism edits , I dont see them as a good faith editor after so many warnings, communication and yet continuing to do the same actions. And he should have been blocked when he started editing Wiki when he calling other editor "asshole" - see here-1, here-2, and "You're a fucking retarded fuck" - see here-3. When bad actions go wihtout consequences, bad actions will continue that is go without saying. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 23:18, 29 October 2021 (UTC)

Requast to transfer Ali Tajdary article to you

hi, my article was reviewed by one of the managers named (Qwerfjkl ), and he mentioned some problems and i fixed all those problems, that manager said that i am still not sure and you should transfer it to another manager. check me out because i applied all the wikipedia rules to the article and Ali Tajdary the article is complete and has the right links,thank you Hoseinkandovan (talk) 11:32, 27 October 2021 (UTC)

Hoseinkandovan Good day. Sorry for the late reply. First of all, You dont need to write 3 different messages, if the message is about the same subject/concern. You can just write your messages in the same message title. Secondly, there is no manager in the Wikipedia English page or any other different Wikipedia sites but in the Wikipedia Foundation. We have patrollers or reviewers who review the new pages or draft pages. For a subject to have a stand alone in the mainspace of English Wikipedia, the subject needs to pass the notability guidlines which means the the subject need to be have significant coverage from independent, [[WP:RS|reliable}} sources where by the sources talk about the subject in depth and in length and not only mere passing mentioned. Pls read - WP:SINGER, WP:NACTOR and WP:NBASIC. I didnt check throught all the sources on the draft, but for Tidal, radiojavan, ganja2music, and sherdog, the sources doesnt not indicate the contribution of the source requested. I suggest you to go through WP:TWA a 90min program to understand some basic Wikipedia guideline. Btw, pls do dont remove catogories for no reasons which you did many times and have been informed twice not to do so for that is considered disruptive. Stay safe and best. Cassiopeia talk 02:03, 1 November 2021 (UTC)

Boo!

Happy Halloween!
Hello Cassiopeia:
Thanks for all of your contributions to improve Wikipedia, and have a happy and enjoyable Halloween!

Interest in WP:NPPS

Hi Cassiopeia, I'm interested in the New Page Patrol school, and wondered if you were willing to take on students at the moment? If you were able to, and wanted to help me, I'd be interested in starting the school sometime in the next few weeks. Please do let me know if you'd be able to help, or if you think I'm not right for this yet. Thank you and best wishes! Mxtt.prior (talk) 19:54, 31 October 2021 (UTC)


Mxtt.prior Good day and thank you for interested in joining the NPPS program. Pls note that the program is very comprehensive and it covers many topics related to New page requirements. There are 10 assignments and one final exam. Reading material and links will be provided and do expect a lot of reading time and time spend on working on the assignment. Many participants abandon the program even after being informed of the above for they didnt anticipate the amount of time is needed. There is no time frame to complete the program and participants usually would take about 3 months to finish it. If you are still interest then pls complete WP:TWA first (only takes an hour) then pop back here and let me know so I could set up the program for you. Stay safe and best.
