SurrealDB moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to SurrealDB. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability and you may have a possible Conflict of Interest. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Ratnahastin (talk) 15:21, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Ratnahastin.

I will look for more secondary sources, however will make it clear I have no COI except for being a user of the database.

I believe the subject has pretty strong notability, as it has received VC funding, and has been posted on reliable sources such as Tech Crunch.

Once I add some more sources I will move it back to mainspace. Mr vili (talk) 20:16, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have found sources noting SurrealDB as the fastest growing open sourced database, which I have included in the article Mr vili (talk) 20:47, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit summary when removing WikiProject banner

Hi, I reverted your recent edit to Draft talk:Tristan Tate where your edit summary said you were "Adding WikiProject tags using AfC-submit-wizard", while your actual edit removed the WikiProject Crime banner. WP:PROJSCOPE advises that WikiProjects determine which articles are within the scope of their projects, and you should discuss removal with the project, not be bold and remove a banner without discussion or explanation. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 22:21, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry my apologies, I must've accidentally removed it - not sure how that happened - was not my intention Mr Vili talk 22:25, 21 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have seen this happen before, with the same message from other users. So I wonder if there is a bug with whatever browser tools you are using to edit Wikipedia. You might want to preview your edits and check for changes before committing to an edit permanently. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 01:32, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure, maybe it's something broken with the AfC Submit Wizard? I never recalled actually editing the Draft talk page, only the draft page.. Mr Vili talk 01:36, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for January 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Mistral AI, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Claude. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 05:48, 22 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yamla, hey just noting that I did in fact include the IP address Mr Vili talk 11:26, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Are you sure? I can't see it. Your request reads, "Caught by an open proxy block but this host or IP is not an open proxy." There's no IP address that I can see there. --Yamla (talk) 11:39, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. You did but you subsequently removed it. In any case, the IP address you provided is a confirmed p2p proxy. See Template:Blocked p2p proxy for more details. --Yamla (talk) 11:40, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry didn't notice that. Can you explain what the p2p proxy is? I'm literally just connected to my home network so not sure how that might be @Yamla Mr Vili talk 11:58, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also I checked the IP contribution logs but I found no edit history from it? Mr Vili talk 12:02, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See Template:Blocked p2p proxy. Note often this is a person's ISP selling proxy services, rather than the person themselves. A lot of ISPs are... politely, somewhat shady. --Yamla (talk) 12:22, 29 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Remove semi-protection

Hello @JBW. Can we remove the semi-protection on my talk page as I believe it is no longer necessary and may prevent legitimate editors from reaching out to me via my talk page Mr Vili talk 00:44, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. I hope you are right in thinking that it is no longer needed. JBW (talk) 01:31, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Robert McClenon (talk) 00:26, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You had tried to move the blocking redirect from Tristan Tate to Andrew Tate into draft space to unblock acceptance of the article. You sort of moved it, but did not accomplish what you were trying to do. Your move left a redirect from the move. Moving a blocking redirect out of the way requires the WP:Page mover privilege, which allows one to suppress creation of a redirect (or admin status). I moved the redirect out of the way in order to accept the draft, and have tagged the extra redirect that you created for G6 housekeeping deletion.

Now someone may nominate the article for deletion. In the meantime, it is an article. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:35, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that was an accident unfortunately (my bad) Mr Vili talk 04:57, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

February 2024

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. VQuakr (talk) 21:51, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Undoing a single edit is not edit warring. Please discuss on the talk page Mr Vili talk 21:52, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit warring is distinct from the 3RR. What you did was the former. VQuakr (talk) 21:56, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This is your only warning; if you violate Wikipedia's biographies of living persons policy by inserting unsourced or poorly sourced defamatory content into an article or any other Wikipedia page again, as you did at Tristan Tate, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Drmies (talk) 00:00, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain what was unsourced, or defamatory? Mr Vili talk 00:01, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Really? Do I have to explain that posting information about a living person's alleged children sourced to ridiculously unacceptable websites is a BLP violation? And that's besides the edit warring, which is being looked at on a noticeboard, a charge leveled at your partner Desmay but perhaps includes you. Drmies (talk) 00:05, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You're continuing to spam unreliable sources, to the point of disruption and including the exact same source that you were chastised for above. At some point it's going to become clear you're not capable of editing in this subject area. Is that the result you want? VQuakr (talk) 01:10, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They're not unreliable my man, most are just general news websites. You do not solely decide what is reliable and what is not, if you wish we can discus the reliability of sources in the right place if you believe they are not reliable Mr Vili talk 01:25, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure I trust your judgement when it comes to this considering you claimed an article with the title "Tristan Tate's height, brother, daughter, net worth, Instagram, and career" was reliable when there are dozens upon dozens of garbage bin spam sites with those kinds of titles. If you think that's qualified as reliable I really don't know what to say PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:29, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A sports website which seems generally reliable and writes about athletes is exactly the type of title I would expect from such. Mr Vili talk 01:30, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Then you clearly have no idea what is or what makes a source reliable for the purposes of Wikipedia. PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:31, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That is your opinion Mr Vili talk 01:31, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you say so mate. We'll see where this conversation ends up I suppose. PARAKANYAA (talk) 01:32, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AN3

I've revision-deleted the edits and blocked the IP range. AN3, or any administrator's noticeboard, isn't a good place for dealing with that kind of BLP violation, it's best to email an admin privately. If the issue pops up again, let me know. I've watchlisted the article. Acroterion (talk) 12:23, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you Mr Vili talk 12:51, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

And I've semi-protected the article for three months, until primaries are over (whenever that actually is). There are only a couple of autoconfirmed accounts in play, and they were mostly reverting what they thought was an acceptable inclusion. I leave aside the gossip provision of BLP, an I haven't revdel'd everything, it's mostly to keep people from easily reverting. Acroterion (talk) 12:58, 18 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of SurrealDB

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on SurrealDB requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/SurrealDB. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Owen× ☎ 10:47, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @OwenX, can we get that undeleted and go under an AfD as opposed to speedy deletion as the article had substantial edits and source changes due to the company raising $20m in funds days after the original AfD so I think it may have a good shot at surviving an AfD Mr Vili talk 10:01, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mr vili! It was JBW, not me, who deleted the page this time. I only placed the tag there. Feel free to contact him about this, or take the case to WP:DRV. I'll be surprised if the $20M funding press release will be enough to turn things around as far as SIGCOV is concerned. This type of press releases are not considered to be independent, significant coverage. Owen× ☎ 10:37, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, thank you @OwenX, i only just noticed that now. I was able to find other additional sources and scholarly articles which I now believe cover WP:SIGCOV so hopefully it can under go an additional AfD.

Regardless, I believe it was incorrectly speedy deleted under WP:G4 which excludes articles that have had substantial changes or have been improved via drafts. Mr Vili talk 10:40, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I understand what you're saying, but even if that were the case, I see no value in undoing the G4 just to re-delete it in a subsequent AfD. I also don't understand your apparent obsession with this one article. Is there a conflict of interest you haven't told us about? If you are here to improve the encyclopedia, there are thousands of other articles that could benefit from your diligent search for sources. Owen× ☎ 10:52, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The point is I see it surviving an AfD. There's no COI but I think their product is notable and deserves encyclopedic coverage.

I quite enjoy writing articles about software, AI and other topics, and I had no issue with it being deleted under the original AfD, however in light of new sources and events, I believe it now has sufficient notability to survive an AfD. Mr Vili talk 11:18, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As a co-editor on this article I see the software & services as something with significants and want to facilitate the creation of the article with Mr Vili.

I am a developer myself, I use it, i see others using it and plenty of buzz around SurrealDB since 2023. Its being adopted and used by other companies, which for new tech often doesnt happen this fast, which shows what a challanger position SurrealDB is in, if companies are willing to drop traditional old timer databases for Surreal.

I would much rather see a more collaberative effort on the article rather than having to fight deletions everyday. If there are areas of improvement, point them out and allow us to improve them, rather than just deleting it at the first chance. TagKnife (talk) 12:04, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The first thing that needs to be done is to determine what exactly the article is supposed to be about. As I noted in the AfD discussion, the article then was a confused mess, supposedly describing software (sometimes in excessive detail), but then going off at a tangent, describing how a company (unnamed, which hadn't even been mentioned previously) was acquiring investment. Is the article about database software, or a company? These are two different subjects, and as such, if they meet Wikipedia notability criteria, should be covered in two different articles. But note that writing about either requires demonstrating that that topic is independently notable. If the database software is notable, this needs to be shown through sources discussing (in depth) the software, not the company. Not investment in the company. The previous article attempted to cobble together 'notability' through a mishmash of questionable sources on two different topics. It failed. AndyTheGrump (talk) 14:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Claude-3.5

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Claude-3.5, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
