Speedy deletion nomination of Участник:Smallhedgehog

[edit]

Hello Smallhedgehog,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Участник:Smallhedgehog for deletion, because it doesn't appear to contain any encyclopedic content. Take a look at our suggestions for essential content in short articles to learn what should be included.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Xx236 (talk) 08:23, 22 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:18, 28 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Possible conflict of interest

[edit]

Information icon Hello, Smallhedgehog. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 20:17, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Almost all of your editing, as far as I can see, relates to one institution. The nature of your editing makes it inconceivable that you do not have a personal connection to that institution. That being so, you are apparently editing in ways which are contrary to the guidelines on conflict of interest, and if your editing here is part of paid work for that institution then it is also violating the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use. Complying with those terms is a requirement, not an option. Please state whether you do have a connection to the institution about which you have been editing, and also whether the editing you are doing is all or part of work for which you are paid, and if so who is paying you and in what capacity (e.g. employer or client). Please do so before you do any more editing relating to that institution.
  • Some of your editing adds to articles content which appear to be there for the purpose of promoting or publicising the work of the people you have edited about. For example, you have added to articles "references" which do not support or confirm the statements to which they are attached, and which appear to be there in order to publicise work of the people who are subjects of the articles. As you have already been told, editing for the purpose of promotion is not permitted. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 09:52, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Dear JamesBWatson! In Wikipedia, I'm interested in the history of the Imperial Universities of the Russian Empire, as well as the history and modernity of Moscow University. I live in Moscow and have access to many sources in the library of Moscow University. This is the main affiliation. I have never received remuneration for my work in Wikipedia and I am not going to receive it in the future. Smallhedgehog (talk) 14:33, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Since I am new to English Wikipedia, I would be grateful if you would let me contact you for advice to avoid possible mistakes. Sincerely. Smallhedgehog (talk) 14:40, 30 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Perhaps your suspicion of affiliation is related to the choice of seven new articles about university professors who are graduates of one faculty. I will try to explain the reasons for this choice. Mathematics is the most abstract of the sciences, the language of mathematics is essentially the international language of science. The second factor is that the MSU Faculty of Computational Mathematics and Cybernetics is practically the only one from the faculties of Moscow State University, which has a website with a Free license, which facilitates the work with materials. It also seemed to me that mathematicians could be least suspected of having to advertise their activities. With deep respect and best wishes. Smallhedgehog (talk) 08:37, 31 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you translated text from Aleksander Raevsky (japanologist) to another page. While you are welcome to translate Wikipedia content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing requires that you provide attribution to the contributor(s) of the original article. When translating from a foreign-language Wikipedia article, this is supplied at a minimum in an edit summary on the page where you add translated content, identifying it as a translation and linking it to the source page. For example: Content in this edit is translated from the existing French Wikipedia article at [[:fr:Exact name of French article]]; see its history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if translation is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{translated page}} template on the talk pages of the destination article. If you have added translated content previously which was not attributed at the time it was added, please add attribution retrospectively for that also, even if it was a long time ago. You can read more about author attribution and the reasons for it at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 00:57, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contributions to Aleksander Raevsky (japanologist). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has too many problems of language or grammar and Has many problem from non-standard references, incorrect image placement, embedding of a secondary article, substantial tones issues (several blocks need rewritten), it needs copyedit. . 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. scope_creepTalk 10:08, 1 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I forget about this. I also checked other pages you created [1]. All of them are subject for AfD. Well, creating such pages for hardly notable (or borderline notable) people is a bad idea. I will not help with this, sorry. My very best wishes (talk) 19:37, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, User:Eraevsky - is it you or someone you know? I am asking because that user also has created a bunch of very similar pages about Russian scientists (mostly living people) of disputable notability [2]. I am sure all of them are wonderful people, but do they satisfy Wikipedia:Notability (academics)? I would say a lot of them do not. My very best wishes (talk) 19:53, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
And of course you created two pages about members of Raevsky family (same name as name of the user). Speaking on the 2nd of them, for example, i.e. Alexander Raevsky (aviator), do you have any info about him published in RS? I realized he lived long time ago, but if he is notable, there must be something in printed books. My very best wishes (talk) 22:25, 9 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Speaking on the page about another Raevsky, I assume this is his channel. It does not look too impressive in terms of subscription. I would say the new version of this page is going to be deleted, just as the previous one. Do not do it. This is my advice. Note that repeatedly recreating such pages can be regarded as disruption (wasting time of other contributors) and might result in a block. My very best wishes (talk) 00:41, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Indeed, I considered the criterion of the significance of the article about the personality Alexander Raevsky (Japaneseist) to be the position of a YouTuber whose channel has 60 thousand subscribers and 8 million views. This fact did not exist in 2020. But I accept your advice with gratitude and thank you for your prompt and detailed analysis of the article. Sorry to bother you. Sincerely, Smallhedgehog (talk) 04:09, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
"Level One"/levelvan seems to be a project with YouTube and other channels run by other people [3]; he is probably just one of "lecturers". His actual YouTube channel is apparently [that one. Happy editing, My very best wishes (talk) 14:56, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
