Speedy deletion of "Jack Yang"[edit]

A page you created, Jack Yang, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how they are important or significant, and thus why they should be included in an encyclopedia. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and the guidelines for biographies in particular.

You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.

Thanks. Mifter (talk) 04:06, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

sure, he is notable, but fix the article. I'd advise you to do this very quickly, before it gets nominated for regular deletion. Dont write it as PR, see below. And list his 4 or 5 main papers, with their number of citing articles--it helps. Do not give external links to his conference presentations. DGG (talk) 00:40, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

July 2008[edit]

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, edits where there is a conflict of interest, or where such a conflict might reasonably be inferred from the tone of the edit and the proximity of the editor to the subject, are strongly discouraged. If you have a conflict of interest, you should avoid or exercise great caution when:

editing or creating articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with;
participating in deletion discussions about articles related to your organization or its competitors;
linking to the Wikipedia article or website of your organization in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam); and,
avoid breaching relevant policies and guidelines, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, verifiability of information, and autobiographies.

For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for businesses. For more details about what, exactly, constitutes a conflict of interest, please see our conflict of interest guidelines. Thank you. -- SEWilco (talk) 22:15, 24 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

advice[edit]

Watch it. What SEW says above is very highly relevant, and if you do not follow the advice there the articles you have been creating are going to have considerable difficulties here. Do not copy information from journal or society web pages, unless you actually release them under GFDL--and even then the Public Relations description of a society or a journal on such a page is not likely to be suitable for an article. Only the ed. in chief is considered appropriate content. An indication of the length of time the journal has appeared is highly relevant content, along with coverage by the major indexes--preferably ISI, not just Medline.

For bio articles, please follow our format to show notability, see WP:FIRST. Do not add excessive external links, see WP:EL.

I have helped many journal articles and articles on scientists remain in wikipedia , even when written with conflict of interest, but they must be rewritten to meet our standards. Please contact me on Wikipedia or by email from my user page here for further assistance. I have helped some other BMC journals to show enough notability even when fairly new, but you need to do it correctly. If they are actually just started, you will almost certainly need some 3rd party independent reliable published sources, print or online (but not blogs or press releases) to show notability. DGG (talk) 00:38, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Username policy[edit]

I do not know the meaning of your name, but there are hints that it may be related to a company. Please note that Wikipedia:Username policy prohibits shared user accounts, thus accounts that represent an entire group or company are not permitted. Accounts should be used by individuals and not a "role" (such as several people acting in the role of "Public Relations Department"). I don't know of a set procedure, but if you were not aware of this, consider putting a message on both the user page and this page saying something like "This name was created by [company name] and has been set aside after the error was pointed out. Please leave this account as a [trade name/trademark] protection measure. Employees might participate as individuals, following Wikipedia policies." You might mention the position ("Lead editor"?) of the person who will be in charge of the account in case someone wants to contact them (and then they get to store the envelope with the account email name and password in their Wikipedia file folder), just in case the policy changes and someone wants to notify you. -- SEWilco (talk) 15:06, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of International Society of Intelligent Biological Medicine[edit]

A tag has been placed on International Society of Intelligent Biological Medicine requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

If you have a close connection to some of the people, places or things you have written about in the article International Journal of Functional Informatics and Personalized Medicine, you may have a conflict of interest.

Please stop removing speedy deletion notices from pages that you have created yourself, as you did with International Society of Intelligent Biological Medicine. If you continue, you will be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Themfromspace (talk) 22:16, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

July 2008[edit]

I am about to remove the copyvio inappropriate material you have readded, such as the email addresss of the officers of the society some remaining copyvio. Do not readd it, or you will be blocked. I can do this, and i will. It would be very much easier to simply let the article be deleted, than to keep fixing it, but I try to save articles on this subject if possible. This needs you cooperation. Once more, see our Business FAQ. DGG (talk) 23:08, 25 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image source problem with Image:Dr. Jack Yang.jpg[edit]

Image Copyright problem

Thanks for uploading Image:Dr. Jack Yang.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Image copyright problem with Image:Dr. Jack Y. Yang.jpg[edit]

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Dr. Jack Y. Yang.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their license and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. J Milburn (talk) 13:03, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

November 2008[edit]

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Jack Yang, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. El on ka 18:48, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop. Continuing to remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to may be considered vandalism. Further edits of this type may result in your being blocked from editing. El on ka 23:28, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

IJFIPM, hi, I see you've been adding several articles to Wikipedia. Thanks for the help! However, you also appear to be running roughshod over a few of our policies, so I hope you'll allow me to give you some good faith advice?

You seem to be here representing a professional society. This is fine, but you should probably pick a username that is personalized, as we do not allow users to have names which are commercial in nature.
When maintenance tags, such as {{cleanup}} or {{wikify}} are added to an article, you should not remove them until/unless the problems are addressed.
Please familiarize yourself with our Manual of style. For example, images are normally placed at the upper right of an article, and you should be very careful of overlinking things.

Thanks, and let me know if you have any questions, --El on ka 23:34, 13 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image:Dr._Mary_Yang.jpg[edit]

I can see that this image is severely distorted. My guess – it's a capture from anamorphic widescreen video. Resizing in vertical direction down to 3/4 of its current height seems to fix the aspect ratio. In case if you have some problems with image editing software leave me a message and I may be able to help.
P.S. I've made an ajustment to this image: ☺. If it looks good to you – feel free to use it. Skarebo (talk) 07:59, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

December 2008[edit]

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Mary Yang, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. El on ka 05:39, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

February 2009[edit]

You must use an individual, not a corporate user name. Please see WP:USER. Change it now, as explained at our Business FAQ (which also applies to non-profit organisations).This one will very soon get blocked. Please do not over-link or over-caption articles. People, journals, or institutions mentioned in articles get linked once and once only, at the first significant mention. Do not list people in the see also if ty re also linked in the article. Do not write captions or links so as to bring in the maximum possible number of illustrious people, universities, or organizations. Do not over-describe people; if someone has an article in WP, that will be the description. Please do not include Mary Yang in all pictures of other people. A picture showing them alone is much better. I'll be glad to offer you advice--ask at my talk page or email me. As reviewing administrator, I think the group of articles related to this society wildly excessive; though the society and its journals are probbly notable, some degree of proportion is needed to avoid WP:SPAM. Over promotional article are much more likely to get nominated for deletion. I would like to help you keep the articles if possible.

If you have links, it would be very useful to have a link to the current CVs of the Yangs, and an exact description of their present positions. DGG (talk) 16:44, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

just how unperceptive do you think we are around here? we will block all anonymous accounts adding spam, just a quickly as we will ones with user names.

It always raises suspicions when people do this, that perhaps the people, journals, and organizations are not notable after all. I am prepared to defend all articles on notable scientific journals as scientists as strongly as I can, and also to remove non-notable ones just as strongly. I think you will do much better in establishing these articles if you don;t try to flagrently and repeatedly break our rules in the process. There is nothing you can do to harm Mary Yang's reputation more, than to try to put pictures of her in all possibly relevant articles here, and to link to her papers every place there is a possible chance to do so.

This is the last warning you will receive for your disruptive edits.
The next time you use Wikipedia for advertising, as you did with the above articles, you will be blocked from editing. DGG (talk) 02:28, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
