Edits to Ryan D Craig's page 12/6/17

Hi Chrissymad,

I noticed that you removed my edits for Ryan D Craig and I wanted to see if I could get clarification on why it was removed. I look forward to hearing back from you.

Thank you! Tara — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tnjones522 (talkcontribs) 15:42, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

That thing needs a complete overhaul, and probably a couple of tags. If the spirit moves you, there's material in here that will probably allow for a decent rewrite... Drmies (talk) 17:42, 11 December 2017 (UTC)

Speedy Deletion Tag

Hi Chrissymad, I created an article for Turicum Private Bank, which was nominated for deletion and then deleted, with the following reason..."because the article appears to be about a company, corporation or organization, but it 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." I'm surprised I can't create a simple article about a company when there are hundreds of articles about companies, organisations etc The article will hold basic information about the company, when people search Turicum in a web browser.

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Praxidicae, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

  • The new page backlog is currently at 12713 pages. Please consider reviewing even just a few pages each day! If everyone helps out, it will really put a dent in the backlog.
  • Currently the backlog stretches back to March and some pages in the backlog have passed the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing some of them!

Outreach and Invitations:

  • If you know other editors with a good understanding of Wikipedia policy, invite them to join NPP by dropping the invitation template on their talk page with: {{subst:NPR invite}}. Adding more qualified reviewers will help with keeping the backlog manageable.

New Year New Page Review Drive

  • A backlog drive is planned for the start of the year, beginning on January 1st and running until the end of the month. Unique prizes will be given in tiers for both the total number of reviews made, as well as the longest 'streak' maintained.
  • Note: quality reviewing is extremely important, please do not sacrifice quality for quantity.

General project update:

  • ACTRIAL has resulted in a significant increase in the quality of new submissions, with noticeably fewer CSD, PROD, and BLPPROD candidates in the new page feed. However, the majority of the backlog still dates back to before ACTRIAL started, so consider reviewing articles from the middle or back of the backlog.
  • The NPP Browser can help you quickly find articles with topics that you prefer to review from within the backlog.
  • To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.

Here are few additional points to adequately show the subject's notability.

One of the important contribution by Pankaj Patel is 130/30 index. He was the one who build the portfolio from the idea of 130/30 type needs the index. Prof Andrew Lo provided theoretical reasoning, Pankaj Patel created portfolio of equities to build the index. Philip Vasan brought Pankaj and Andrew in one room to come up with index.

In partnership with Professor Andrew Lo of MIT, and Philip Vasan of Blackrock, Pankaj launched the first passive and investible 130/30 Equity index.[1] [2] [3] [4]

Hello Chrissymad,

I am seeking to make a page for Wenonah Hauter, who is featured in the Requested articles page here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requested_articles/Biography/By_profession#Activists

Previously you flagged the page for speedy deletion for copyright infringement for being too similar to the website about her. I have worked hard to put a biography of her in my own words but wanted to see if I could run it by you first to get your approval. The copy I had in mind is below, please let me know!

Request on 16:04:54, 17 December 2017 for assistance on AfC submission by Constant shallowness


Hello Chrissymad,

You suggested changes on an article for the group called Vukovar. Your suggestions were based around the references. The references used are mainly Louder Than War which is a national publication in print and online. These alone should be strong enough without the secondary references. Can you please look into it and reconsider your position.

Also, you said something about the presentation - would you kindly give me instructions on how to improve this?

Thanks.

Yours, Constant Shallowness. Constant shallowness (talk) 16:04, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Constant shallowness (talk) 16:04, 17 December 2017 (UTC)

Constant shallowness, while Louder Than War does appear to be a reliable source, the issue is that the three references given are by the same author (to quote from WP:GNG, "Multiple publications from the same author or organization are usually regarded as a single source for the purposes of establishing notability). Thus, you essentially have "one" good source that discusses the band. You will need to add more in order to demonstrate notability. It will also be helpful to turn your end-of-page references into inline citations; see WP:REFB Section 3.1 for information about how to quickly and easily add references to a page.

West & Intercall Reversions

Hi Chrissymad,

I wanted to chat with you about some reversions you made in early November on the pages for InterCall and West Corporation. I am the editor who's changes you reverted (hi!) and was hoping to 1) hear in a bit more detail what your concerns are, and 2) work out a compromise to restore some of the content to the pages, in order to ensure an accurate representation of Intercall (West UC) and West Corporation.

{{connected contributor (paid)}} COI Disclosure: Partly thanks to your reversion, I'm more familiar with Wikipedia's COI guidelines, and am now working to be more transparent! I am employed by R. Clement Creative, a creative consultant firm retained by West Corporation to develop content that accurately represents West Corporation within Wikipedia's guidelines. I would like to work with you to find ways to develop content that accurately represents West but follows Wikipedia's ethos and guidelines.

Hope we can talk soon! CCDirkes (talk) 20:08, 21 December 2017 (UTC)CCDirkes

Advice on editor's illogical actions

Hi. May I ask your advice on something? I added an edit to a page that was unbalanced with proper citation. But an editor just removed it, citing I'm 'socking'. I read up on that, but I am not doing that. The only way to prove i'm not a 'sock' is by meeting people on Wiki, but there's been no recent or upcoming meetings in my city to prove I'm a real person. I reverted the edits I made on the page since the editor didn't state good reasons. I stated my reason for reverting it, and asked how he could remove cited information that is relevant to a page. He just reverted it again and sent me a warning for editing war.... Surely someone can't just remove an edit and make a false accusation, and then I get the warning? If you could advise me on what to do, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! AspiringCheetah (talk) 05:34, 22 December 2017 (UTC)AspiringCheetah

AspiringCheetah, I've only briefly looked at the situation, but my advice would be to discuss the matter on the article's talk page. You might have valid concerns and useful contributions to make, but clearly there is an editor who feels they are neither. So discuss the matter on the talk page, remember to keep calm and civil with the other editors, and if it's clear the discussion is going nowhere you're welcome to request a Third opinion or dispute resolution. Primefac (talk) 13:57, 22 December 2017 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
More eyes and assistance would be appreciated. Long story short, cult who's leader was convicted of rape (to be released early 2018) has aggressively tried to push a pro POV view into Wikipedia articles. Some years ago, the article was ugly, using several unreliable anti-cult websites in areas, and cult published websites in others. Multiple sock puppets, meat puppets and lots of civil POV pushing from cult followers. It's so much fun. Providence (religious movement) is the article in question.

From Stave one of Dickens A Christmas Carol

Old Marley was as dead as a door-nail. Mind! I don’t mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country’s done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

New Years new page backlog drive

Hello Praxidicae, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Announcing the NPP New Year Backlog Drive!

We have done amazing work so far in December to reduce the New Pages Feed backlog by over 3000 articles! Now is the time to capitalise on our momentum and help eliminate the backlog!

The backlog drive will begin on January 1st and run until January 29th. Prize tiers and other info can be found HERE.

Awards will be given in tiers in two categories:

  • The total number of reviews completed for the month.
  • The minimum weekly total maintained for all four weeks of the backlog drive.

NOTE: It is extremely important that we focus on quality reviewing. Despite our goal of reducing the backlog as much as possible, please do not rush while reviewing.

I spent a long period of time, compiling accurate race details and updates, and in one swift second, you've deleted my work, and on your talk page, you absolve all responsibility for your conduct. I assumed, Wikipedia was about working together, to create a worthwhile input of material.

Speedy deletion

I notice that you tagged the page ShowBiz Cinemas for speedy deletion with the reason "non-notable business". While that's a valid reason for speedy deletion in general, this page does not qualify for speedy deletion under that criterion because the article states that the chain owns 7 locations with 117 screens, which is a plausible indication of notability. If you still want the page to be deleted, please consider tagging it with a speedy deletion template which does apply, redirecting it to another page, proposing the page for deletion if it appears to be an uncontroversial matter, or taking the page to WP:AFD for discussion on the merits.

17:51:13, 10 January 2018 review of submission by VandelBuster


Hello Chrissymad,

I'm trying to get this going here and I'm having troubles. Obviously. Haha. I have a few questions and need some help clarifying things/get a better understanding.

So, author interviews are primary sources, and I have more than enough of those. The newly added stuff from Columbia College's archives, that's all primary, except the DEMO 10 Magazine (Ref 34), as well. Mainly because they're from the time he graduated as opposed to being after he graduated, which the DEMO 10 Magazine says. Is that correct?

Book pages on the publishers own sites, are those primary as well?

Book reviews are secondary sources, right? I have a bunch of them, but I don't know if there's an acceptable amount per book/story. I mean, I don't want to put up six or seven for one book.

Lastly, what's an acceptable amount of references overall? I see pages being accepted with four or seven, you know? I've had to have more seconadry than that already, right? That's another thing that's making me ask what am I doing wrong overall (other than a lot of author interviews).

Hoping for feedback and maybe some advice. Thanks for your time. VandelBuster (talk) 17:51, 10 January 2018 (UTC)

Please do not use this tag without actually verifying its applicability, i.e., "a page that was previously deleted via a deletion discussion, is substantially identical to the deleted version, ... etc". If you are not an admin, you cannot possibly verify this yourself. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:54, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Staszek Lem I actually can see both deleted versions due to edit filters and it seemed nearly identical to me minus one new addition. Also, it's been AFD'd twice, see also Pavlo Hrytsak and deleted as a consequence of both. To say that a non-admin shouldn't tag G4 is a bit silly otherwise it needs to be admin use only and it doesn't warrant a warning, even if it's declined. Curious how you've viewed it while chiding me for the same when you're not an administrator either. And as far as "if you are an admin, you should know better." WP:AGF. Thanks! CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 21:59, 11 January 2018 (UTC)(edit conflict)
(talk page stalker) (edit conflict) It is normal for non-admins to use the G4 tag and for admins to review. If there is sourcing after the AfD took place, most admins won't delete the article, but it is very much the norm for non-admins to apply this tag for admin attention. The number of admins who actively patrol new pages is pretty low, so we rely on people like Chrissy to alert us of potential reposts with the G4 tag. TonyBallioni (talk) 22:00, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
Sorry for looking nasty. I am not aware of "edit filters" . Please tell me where can I read about them. Now, Back to the case. The Afd was dated 2016, but the article has significant 2017 info. You say yourself "one new addition". I do not know what it was, but being Executive Producer of Eurovision Song & getting an award are significant claims of notability. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:06, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
@TonyBallioni: -- Got your point, thanks; will keep this in mind. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:08, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
Staszek Lem It's not substantially different and after doing WP:BEFORE it's evident that there is no significant coverage or change from the last two AFDs. One of which was closed in October 2017. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pavlo Hrytsak. I'm a bit confused as you've commented there as well and knew that the Eurovision stuff was specifically mentioned in that AfD too, meaning it was still deleted on that rationale that affiliation doesn't = notability.

regarding the zirin article

Regarding this [4] I had already disputed the removal of a perfectly fine reference and invoked BRD at that time and already opened a talk page discussion.

Please see the talk page if you care for more information. Thank you. Lacypaperclip (talk) 22:24, 11 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi Chrissymad,

Thank you for reviewing my article. I have added a more appropriate reference to the article, but their isnt much to go at at the moment in the way of validating the info stated as this is her first major role. All the other members of the Age Before Beauty cast have pages on here, except Vicky, so I thought it would be good to complete the list.

Again, thanks for the hard wk you do & I hope this revision is more acceptable.

Request on 08:13:19, 15 January 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Batbaatar


I made changes following your suggestions. Please re-review of the draft: Jigjidsuren_Gombojav Dear Chrissymad,

I made changes to the draft according to your suggestions, and I would like to request if you could re-review the page. You noted that the subject of the page is lacking notability, but I would like to appeal to you why the subject was notable and worthy of a wikipedia page. Here are the reasons:

  1. The topic, Mongolian Cinema, is not popular among western audiences, yet it does not make it unworthy of discussion, or inclusion in the wikipedia. I can argue that it is the opposite — obscure topics and subjects should be encouraged to be included in the wikipedia, and would be important additions to English references.
  2. The subject of the page, Jigjidsuren Gombojav, is a prominent film director in Mongolia. His film won the main award from the Karlovy-Vary Film Festival, which was a first for a Mongolian film. Then, two of his films were included in the competition program of the Moscow International Film Festival in the 1980's, an accomplishment a very few other directors have achieved in Mongolia. In other words, his films represent the Mongolian cinema of the Soviet era. Please verify from the references below.
  3. For his work in cinema, literature, and teaching, he was awarded the highest honors from the Mongolian government. Please verify the information from the references I included in the draft.
  4. To quote from the wikipedia's own suggestions on creating a biography page:
  • The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times.
  • The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field.
  • The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors.

I think the collective works (~20 feature films, 2 encyclopedia, 1 historical book) of Jigjidsuren Gombojav and his accolades satisfy the above mentioned criteria. As I said above, the topic could be unfamiliar to western audience and the sources are scarce but that does not render the topic or subject unworthy of discussion.

Please consider your decision one more time, and re-review my draft. Hope you will approve the article this time.

Thanks for your time and efforts.

List of programs for point cloud processing - edits

Chrissymad -- I'm not clear why you would go into a compiled list and decide to remove certain items. The page is merely a list of programs that provide information for users. I didn't create the page, nor do I maintain the list. A while back I added an entry to the list. Yes, my company provides that software but it is not promoted nor advertised in any way on the page. Or more to the point -- it's one entry on a list that contains many other programs that do something similar.

What was your rationale for removing some items from the list and leaving others on your initial edit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by KKSolv3D (talkcontribs) 16:08, 17 January 2018 (UTC)

As I explained several times - Wikipedia isn't a directory and we don't blindly list non-notable items. If it's inclusion is warranted it should at least be mentioned in an associated article (and sourced to reliable sources, not primary, as many of those were) or have an article itself.

In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks.
I noticed you arbitrarily absolutely gutted the articles for the page List_of_scrypt_crypto_currencies and the same for the SHA256 one. You didn't even bother to even start a discussion on the talk pages, just went ahead and made a list of coins you consider to be valid. The whole point of this article was a quick and easy alternative to the List of cryptocurrencies page. Please be more constructive in the future. This is your first warning leopheard (talk) 01:06, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

re: List of X11 cryptocurrencies — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leopheard (talkcontribs) 01:12, 15 January 2018 (UTC)
Leopheard, first off, leaving three warning messages for what is essentially the same issue (just on three pages) is a bit excessive. Second, I have looked at the three articles you mention and I see nothing "arbitrary" about Chrissymad's edits - they are removing non-notable (i.e. "redlinked") names from lists. This is perfectly acceptable, though I suppose I can see how "rm nn" to someone not familiar with their style wouldn't realize that was "remove non-notable". Third, there is nothing wrong with being bold and making an action that one thinks will improve Wikipedia. If people disagree, there is discussion and a consensus is reached. That's the way it should be. I do encourage you to read through WP:LISTCRITERIA for the main reasons why Chrissymad trimmed down all those redlinked lists. Primefac (talk) 01:55, 15 January 2018 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
What is excessive is making dramatic changes to a page without any form of discussion, as you yourself say should be done. For one person to simply decide what is and isn't notable is obviously going to run into problems. So, just because a user hasn't heard of a particular thing, it shouldn't be on Wikipedia? This isn't a site for the most popular things, but surely a lot more than the status quo? Should all references to car manufacturers be removed that aren't Ford, GMC and Chevy? Exactly. leopheard (talk) 00:53, 18 January 2018 (UTC)
Leopheard, it is not excessive. Aside from bold editing being perfectly acceptable, the removal of redlinks in lists is supported by LISTCRITERIA, REDDEAL, WTAF, and LISTCRUFT. Primefac (talk) 16:00, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

Paul Sidwell article

Hi Chrissymad, could you revert your deletion of Paul Sidwell?

The Paul Sidwell article is notable because Sidwell is currently one of the most important scholars on Austroasiatic languages (the largest language family in Southeast Asia), with many publications. Many Wikipedia articles link to this page. Before, someone had written that article to look like a personal page. But the Paul Sidwell article should nevertheless be revived, since it meets all the requirements in Wikipedia:Notability (academics)#Criteria. — Stevey7788 (talk) 06:07, 18 January 2018 (UTC)

I suppose that's the paragraph "Since 1969…" on the ARITH-21 page, which can also be found (with minor changes) already on the ARITH-18 page. But I don't know whether it was used earlier. The original author probably didn't care about copyright issues. I wonder whether the use of this paragraph can fall under fair use; in particular, it has been copied year after year for the subsequent ARITH conferences.

Draft: David Holy - Submission declined on 16 January 2018 by Chrissymad (Question)

Dear Chrissymad,

first off, thanks for your great work and immediate response!

"David Holy" is my first contribution to Wikipedia and I totally get why my first draft was declined. However, I'm not sure how to resolve the issue (-> This submission's references do not adequately show the subject's notability.). The article is supposed to be the English version of an article that already exists (German Wiki). I tried to use the new translation tool but I can't publish the translated article (because I'm a noob and therefore not permitted to publish ;-)). The German version seems just fine and the English version is basically the same, including the sources.

This discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.


I do not understand what is wikipedia's definition of 'notability'. The company has multiple independent articles done by The Vindicator and sells nationally. It has appeared in a national magazine for the most popular home & garden show twice and even appeared on the inside cover of the one issue. Just because you may not be aware of the company does not discredit its existence. It has plenty of reviews on multiple websites to prove that it, in fact, exists. The company is in an industry that has magazines that are not as popular as the high tech or banking industry. Plus after all this is an online encyclopedia, so, if the company has proof of existence (58 years), as this one does, and the article does not appear to be biased, then the page should be published in order for wikipedia to meet the definition of itself. Unless of course, there is actually a market cap requirement for companies to be listed on wikipedia. In that case, I was not aware of the large barriers to entry on an open source encyclopedia...

Additionally, the main source that I used for this article is on Wikipedia. So I think I would be safe to assume that it is considered to be notable and reliable by Wikipedia, unless now we list newspapers that are neither reliable nor notable, which would be in contradiction for your requirements for businesses. So my question is this: How is a company that has multiple articles on it published by The Vindicator (Which is considered notable and reliable by Wikipedia, and actually centered politically), not notable itself? If you say that it is not then your whole argument is a blatant contradiction. Think logically please.

JJNelson (talk) 18:19, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

JJNelson (talk) 18:19, 23 January 2018 (UTC)

JJNelson It's not about it's existence, it's about notability and none of these sources establish it. They're largely PR, run of the mill, primary or fluff pieces. Wikipedia is not itself a source, whether it links to an existing article is irrelevant in determining notability. As far as the Vindicator source, it's an interview and not independent coverage. The rest, again, are passing mentions, primary or not coverage. Please also see WP:PAID and WP:COI before continuing to edit. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 18:54, 23 January 2018 (UTC)


What do you mean that they are largely PR? The Vindicator discloses if the article is a paid interview (As you can see if you click the link, neither of these articles are). Also, if you even took the time to check the one article used titled, "Baird Bros. event offers carpentry projects, demos, tours," you would realize that not a single employee or owner of the company was interviewed in that article. It was a report on the event going on there and interviews of people attending the event. It is possible for an interview to be independent coverage. You just keep making up rules as you go when you come to the realization that your initial premise was utter garbage. Is there any hierarchy at Wikipedia so I can bypass your changing narrative? Or is this an 'open source' platform where one editor can decide whether or not something makes the cut. JJNelson (talk) 15:33, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

JJNelson I broke it down for you on your talk page. I'm not the only editor who has declined this. It is possible for an interview to be independent coverage. It's not possible when it's someone affiliated with the company. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 15:36, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

They interviewed an 11 year old girl and a carpenter... Besides that, would any of these be acceptable, the one is strictly news coverage of an accident that one of the companies drivers was involved in. [5] [6] [7] [8]

JJNelson I've already explained a half dozen times why these are not appropriate sources. Specifically, the one about the crash is NOT about the company whatsoever and in no way would make anyone notable. They are not independent coverage and even if they were, they're all local. This is getting into the realm of tendentious editing and I'd strongly suggest you take a breather. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 16:05, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

Saying I am biased yet I was asking if a negative article, or at the very least a neutral article, about a truck accident involving one of the companies drivers could be included. Your premise is proven invalid right there. Plus they are independent, you just don't like them because in your opinion you think the company paid for them. And since you cannot prove that they did, you say that they are local, which should not matter. If a newspaper is notable enough to be listed on wikipedia, that should make their stories notable enough to be accepted by wikipedia. JJNelson (talk) 16:15, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

JJNelson My assessment is no invalid - it's not coverage of the company and were the other sources able to establish notability, I'd say that the information is trivial and unencyclopedic at best. However, I'm not going to keep repeating myself. If you have no interest in listening and actually attempting to understand what is being said, I can't help you. Have a nice day. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 16:17, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

I also highly doubt that every company listed on this website is covered by a national media outlet. Making your premise once again invalid by contradiction. The problem with Wikipedia editors is that they are not objective and edit things subjectively for an encyclopedia. Which is why ultimately this website will fail, blockchain will crush it. See Lunyr. JJNelson (talk) 16:18, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

Regarding Deletion of the page Kaamini Khanna. Why are you Deleting the whole page again and again. Read it first. The information that is matching as per the duplication tool cannot be deleted. They are the names or important thing. Don't just rely on the tools at least read first. Over that I have the permission to use that content anywhere. Secondly if you want any proof I can provide you. Revert... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nigam.kirtimaan (talkcontribs) 18:43, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Two issues. 1.) No it's not just a list and it's incredibly heavily paraphrased and 2.) It's incredibly promotional. Please review WP:COI and WP:PAID. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 18:45, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

What do you suggest then ? As the person is important no doubt, I have heard her on Radios here in my Country and seen her on TV {{subst:Db-notice-multiple|Kaamini Khanna|header=1|G11|G12}} ~~~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nigam.kirtimaan (talkcontribs) 18:53, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Hi Chrissymad and nigam, I went through the articles and crossed check with my sources, some information is correct but there are some information which I was unable to verify from anywhere. My Conclusion is that this article needs heavy editing. Upto you Chrissymad and nigam. GaneshSrivastav (talk) 19:47, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

As a moderator, along with other moderators, shouldn't you follow the rules?

From the page YOU linked me to. "Before reverting, first consider whether the original text could have been better improved in a different way or if part of the edit can be fixed to preserve some of the edit, and whether you would like to make that bold edit instead. The other disputant may respond with another bold edit, or with a refinement on your improvement. The "Bold–refine" process is the ideal collaborative editing cycle. Improving pages through collaborative editing is ideal. However, if you find yourself making reversions or near-reversions, then stop editing and move to the next stage, "Discuss"."

No one originally DISCUSSED my edits. Citations were made. My sources are not third-party? Except they are. The links are directly to pages that show the content. You should better explain yourself. Other moderators should definitely ALWAYS give reasons why performing a revert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TempusInfernus (talkcontribs) 20:49, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

TempusInfernus A.) I am not a moderator or administrator. B.) There is absolutely no rule about reverting and removing unsourced information (and especially when it's bordering on promo.) I'd suggest you read the helpful links you've been given instead of yelling at people. The onus is on you, not other editors, to provide the sourcing when adding material.CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 20:52, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

I'm somehow pasting quotes to you from pages I haven't read? And I'm suddenly yelling? Why are you being emotional & unreasonable and making assumptions? What is your motivation? I posted 3 direct citations to uses of the design. I initially avoided citing Weiss as they are a for profit company owned or affiliated with, I believe, CNBC. If you have a problem with that, please explain what it is more directly rather than unhelpfully impeding the information. Be specific about YOUR problem with the sources. You shouldn't be reverting, you should be fixing - according to the EXACT page you linked me to. TempusInfernus (talk) 21:00, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @TempusInfernus: Hey there I watch Chirssymad's talk page and saw this come along. I'd like to provide you with a brief explanation of WP:BRD (Bold, Revert, Discuss). Here is how the cycle works: You make a bold edit → Someone reverts → you go to the talk page and discuss the edit. As for sourcing, Wikipedia places an emphasis on verifiability if you don't include a reliable source your edits are likely to be reverted. All information on wikipedia needs to provide a reliable citation. Generally on Wikipedia we prefer not to use primary sources, secondary sources could be used whenever possible. Hope this helps explain things. As far as I can tell, Chrissymad is inline with our policies. --Cameron11598 (Talk) 21:18, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

Request on 03:24:18, 5 February 2018 for assistance on AfC submission by Atszostek


Hello - thank you for your help with this article! Endorfin is a young company and has only received media coverage from small, local news sites.

I have noticed multiple articles about chocolatiers on Wikipedia that cite very few sources other than their own websites (e.g.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chocolaterie_Robert, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fazer). Is there something about these articles that makes them acceptable for Wikipedia with so few references?

Would the Endorfin article be acceptable if I edit it to only include very basic information about the company (i.e., name, location, awards received)?

Thank you again, Anne

Atszostek (talk) 03:24, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Atszostek Please see WP:OTHERSTUFF in response to the other articles. If there is no significant in depth coverage, it's likely WP:TOOSOON for an article. Please also review WP:COI. Cheers! CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 03:27, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

Don't contradict yourself

You talk about "Unsourced npov crap" on iCELL Network. (1)What proves do you have saying that the coe's name isn't Chua Thiong Kien? (2)That the company isn't dead? (3)That it is located at 19 Kallang Ave, Singapore 339410? (4)That the company isn't bankrupted/indebt? You don't have any evidence*/source* that you mention earlier. Since you said "Inspired npov crap" and undid the truth, you're implying to me that the old information is* up to date.

Here's my prove. (1)His name is* Chua Thiong Kien (surname first) because I've worked with him and seen* his ic before. (2)The company is dead. If you can try to call their phone no. Which is +65 63094520 which it won't even connect. If the company is very successful as it claimed to be then why is their website down? (Source*: [1][2]) (3) If their company is still located at 19 Kallang Ave, Singapore 339410 till today then why is there no unit number? Because the company isn't even there anymore.(source*:[3] (4) Since it is so successful as it claimed to be then why did it not have a webpage or updated webpage? Or a proper address? Or why did it dropped from the Wireless@sg programme? Because Mr Chua did things unregistered and that ended up in a law case. Want a prove? Give me your email and I'll prove it to you with my "source"*. A real bold state you made there without a source* to back you up. Tell me how can there be a neutral point of view in the truth. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.90.36.152 (talk) 06:03, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

It's very possible, and you may be right, but we don't accept unsourced changes to a page, even if this means restoring the "wrong version." If something has changed, and there are reliable sources that demonstrate that change, then obviously the page should be updated. If something is currently unsourced, then it should be removed (not replaced with more unsourced information). It's not a "contradiction", it's just the way we work.

Scooby-Doo reversion

Hi! Just wanted to let you know that I undid your revert on Scooby-Doo. The IP that you reverted was actually correcting the date from this earlier vandalism which somehow got missed. Cheers, Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 15:12, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Yesha Sivan

Hello Chrissymad. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Yesha Sivan, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: No copyvios left anymore. And I don't think it's spammy either. Enough notability for A7 as well. Needs to go to AfD if you still want it deleted. . Thank you. GedUK  16:12, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Ged UK, just as a note from a copypatroller, if you're declining a G12 please make sure you revdel the content that caused the request to be made in the first place. Thanks! Primefac (talk) 16:31, 7 February 2018 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
