Why was my page declined?
per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Roger_V._Gonzalez
I believe you declined my page and yet I meet at least two of the eight academic-specific criteria and it says you only need to meet one. I meet criterion 3 (Fellow of American Society of Mechanical Engineers) and 5 (Endowed Chair at the University of Texas at El Paso. What is going on and what do I need to do. Rvgonzalez (talk) 19:16, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- The endowed chair is not really relevant as nowadays there are too many of them. The fellowships are and I missed them, my error. It needs some format editing which you should not do, writing and editing pages on yourself is strongly frowned on. I will try and do some cleanup this week then pass it through. Ldm1954 (talk) 21:20, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you. Let me know what else you may need from me. Rvgonzalez (talk) 21:39, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hello. Do you happen to know when you will approve the page? Rvgonzalez (talk) 05:22, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- I have cleaned up somewhat your page, but you are going to have to do far more.
- Include a COI disclosure on your user page and the Talk page of the article
- Add the title of your PhD to the infobox scientist, and other relevant information
- Add an image
- Provide sources as marked with a citation needed on the draft. These have to be independent, you should not use ones you provided yourself such as blurbs before talks. For instance, use a link to the pdf of your PhD, your commencement etc.
- Note: there may be mistakes in what I have changed Ldm1954 (talk) 06:36, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi ... here is the situation. The Society launched this effort to bring recognition to fellows and hired an entity (American Wiki Editors) https://www.americanwikieditors.com/ to do this, and they have gone defunct (no number works, chat doesn't work, no responses to emails), and they left the project as is, and that is why I am not, as a non-experienced wiki developer, trying to bring this to a close. I hope that makes sense. Thus, several of the points you bring up like COI etc are new and unknown to me. What do you suggest? Rvgonzalez (talk) 17:58, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- Plus, in Awards, I am a Fellow of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers, not Metallurgical Rvgonzalez (talk) 18:15, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) I suspect the society may have been scammed. Theroadislong (talk) 18:23, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
- So, what should I be doing now since it is looked upon as my doing my own bio? What is your recommendation? Rvgonzalez (talk) 21:37, 11 April 2024 (UTC)

New Pages Patrol newsletter April 2024
Hello Ldm1954,
Backlog update: The October drive reduced the article backlog from 11,626 to 7,609 and the redirect backlog from 16,985 to 6,431! Congratulations to Schminnte, who led with over 2,300 points.
Following that, New Page Patrol organized another backlog drive for articles in January 2024. The January drive started with 13,650 articles and reduced the backlog to 7,430 articles. Congratulations to JTtheOG, who achieved first place with 1,340 points in this drive.
Looking at the graph, it seems like backlog drives are one of the only things keeping the backlog under control. Another backlog drive is being planned for May. Feel free to participate in the May backlog drive planning discussion.
It's worth noting that both queues are gradually increasing again and are nearing 14,034 articles and 22,540 redirects. We encourage you to keep contributing, even if it's just a single patrol per day. Your support is greatly appreciated!
2023 Awards
Onel5969 won the 2023 cup with 17,761 article reviews last year - that's an average of nearly 50/day. There was one Platinum Award (10,000+ reviews), 2 Gold Awards (5000+ reviews), 6 Silver (2000+), 8 Bronze (1000+), 30 Iron (360+) and 70 more for the 100+ barnstar. Hey man im josh led on redirect reviews by clearing 36,175 of them. For the full details, see the Awards page and the Hall of Fame. Congratulations everyone for their efforts in reviewing!
WMF work on PageTriage: The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers deployed the rewritten NewPagesFeed in October, and then gave the NewPagesFeed a slight visual facelift in November. This concludes most major work to Special:NewPagesFeed, and most major work by the WMF Moderator Tools team, who wrapped up their major work on PageTriage in October. The WMF Moderator Tools team and volunteer software developers will continue small work on PageTriage as time permits.
Recruitment: A couple of the coordinators have been inviting editors to become reviewers, via mass-messages to their talk pages. If you know someone who you'd think would make a good reviewer, then a personal invitation to them would be great. Additionally, if there are Wikiprojects that you are active on, then you can add a post there asking participants to join NPP. Please be careful not to double invite folks that have already been invited.
Reviewing tip: Reviewers who prefer to patrol new pages within their most familiar subjects can use the regularly updated NPP Browser tool.
Reminders:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Pages Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
- To opt out of future mailings, please remove yourself here.

How dare you accuse someone of lying about this subject's academic career! You clearly did not check the citations that PROVED HIS ACADEMICS. You should do yourself a favor and bone up on the definition of legal defamation in a public forum. I demand you remove your defamatory comments immediately, or be subject to further action. Act professional or retire from this work...I will not respond further. 2601:586:D021:1539:7460:63ED:6A0C:4453 (talk) 13:02, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
- It's not a good idea to threaten legal action on Wikipedia. See the page Wikipedia:No legal threats. If you feel like you have been the target of defamation, you can read the page Wikipedia:Libel. Please remember to be civil and assume good faith on the part of other users. HenryMP02 (talk) 16:56, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Links to user pages and sandboxes
Please do not introduce links in actual articles to user pages or sandboxes, as you did at X-ray diffraction. Since these pages have not been accepted as articles, user pages, sandboxes and drafts are not suitable for linking in articles. and such links are contrary to the Manual of Style.

RVGonzalez Page
Hi LDMI1954 ... I think I found how to start a thread here for the page that was scammed that was started for me.
I asked a question via the previous discussion. But I presume you want it here? Rvgonzalez (talk) 17:38, 4 May 2024 (UTC)
