Thomas P. Griesa

Ok, I got the warning. But what about the defamation against my country that was in the previous edition of the entry? Did you warn that editor too?!?! That edition, besides defamatory, has no links, no info, only a complete bias article against Argentina and pro-vulture funds. This well known 'Case of the Century' is something very important, a bomb that could make implode the whole financial system to ashes, and the Griesa entry didn't reflect that. In fact, it looks like it reflects the vision of the vulture funds, like all the U.S. media. France, Brazil, the I.M.F., the World Bank, the United Nations, Mexico, Economy Nobel Prizes, magazines and specialists like the Financial Times, New York Times, and The Economist, China, Russia, Africa, everyone is on the Argentina' side, but judge Griesa, its Wikipedia entry, and the vulture funds DON'T. Please, give me an advise, what should I do as an editor?? Let the biased entry?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.48.126.52 (talk • contribs)

All of the unreferenced and irrelevant stuff has been removed from the article. This has nothing to do with bias or any other perceived slight, it is a matter of complying with our BLP policy, plain and simple. If you have a problem with the content of an article, you discuss it on the talk page.--ukexpat (talk) 00:16, 23 July 2014 (UTC)

criticism

Hello, it was not the criticism of AIRCA that I wanted to be removed - we are all fine with being criticized. But the sentence that CGIAR (what some perceive as our competitors, but they are in fact not) are doing only research is simply not true. Many thanks, Marita — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marita Dieling (talk • contribs) 13:59, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Be that as it may, the criticism is sourced and you, an editor with a COI, should not be removing it.--ukexpat (talk) 14:02, 24 July 2014 (UTC)

Is The New York Times a reliable source of information to you?

Excuse me Mr. Ukexpat, do you consider The New York Times as an "unsourced", or maybe a "violation of a living person Wikipedia entry" or a "defamatory" source of information? Or can I use it to edit the biography of Mr. Thomas Griesa, please? Would you let me?.. I'll be waiting for your answer. THANK YOU!: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/25/business/rulings-add-to-the-mess-in-argentine-bonds.html?smid=tw-share&_r=0 — Preceding unsigned comment added by HeroPsycho22 (talk • contribs) 00:45, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

It's a reliable source for his rulings and no more. It is certainly not a source which you can use to infer anything about his competence or motivations etc. And there is no need for the sarcastic tone - please assume good faith in your dealings with other users..--ukexpat (talk) 01:15, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

Please, I need your answer..

I need to know if I can use The New York Times as a source of information about the rare, unusual, and strange way of work of judge Thomas Griesa, that "hardly inspired confidence in the American legal system" (according to the most important financial journalist of the United States: http://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/25/business/rulings-add-to-the-mess-in-argentine-bonds.html?smid=tw-share&_r=0).

Wikimedia in education: Education program gaining momentum in Israel

"Great success" in Israel universities is leading to collaboration and editing in high schools.

Traffic report: The World Cup hangs on, though tragedies seek to replace it

Last week I predicted that the World Cup dominance on the report would be over—but I was wrong. The World Cup Final fell on the 13th of July, which was actually the first day of the week covered by this report, not the last day of the last report. Hence, five of the Top 10 this week are again World Cup related-topics.

News and notes: Institutional media uploads to Commons get a bit easier

Galleries, libraries, archives, and museums (GLAMs) today are facing fewer barriers to uploading their content onto Wikimedia projects now that the new GLAM-Wiki Toolset Project has been launched. The tool, which is the fruit of a collaboration between Europeana and several Wikimedia chapters, relieves GLAMs from having to write their own automated scripts and gives them a standardized method of uploading large amounts of their digitized holdings.

Forum: Did you know?—good idea, needs reform

The English Wikipedia's did you know (DYK) section has been a feature of the site's main page since February 2004. From the beginning, the section has served as a place to highlight Wikipedia's newest articles. But over the last few years, the did you know section has gotten steadily larger and more complex, and non-notable or plagiarized articles have occasionally slipped through the reviewing process, leading numerous editors to call for reforms to the system. We asked two editors to share their views.

Featured content: Why, they're plum identical!

Ten articles, five lists, and 25 pictures were promoted to featured status on the English Wikipedia last week.

Mark Kritzmann

Hey there, I'm the editor who originally reviewed at Mark Krtizmann at AfC. 200Boston has posted an explanation here of why he unblanked the page, and since the article was close to being acceptable at AFC I'm inclined to keep it in article space and correct the deficiencies instead of deleting and making 200Boston go through AFC gain. Sound OK to you? --Cerebellum (talk) 19:08, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

I guess, but I moved the text from mainspace to userspace based on their request at the Help Desk to delete it. If it's close enough, sure.--ukexpat (talk) 19:56, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

It's fine, it can stay in userspace for now. --Cerebellum (talk) 20:03, 28 July 2014 (UTC)

And this one?!

Ok, and The New York Times and the Economics Nobel Price Joseph Stiglitz, both talking about the terrible consequences to the global financial system of the crazy decisions of the corrupt judge Griesa, is a reliable source of information? I need a straight answer, because I don't want to be blocked BY YOU for editing an entry.

Alan E. Freedman

Thank you for your response to my inquiry concerning article on Alan E. Freedman. I appreciate the tone which was much warmer than the scolding I received from another responder. Back to the original inquiry, I did read the "B" criteria, but am not experienced or competent enough to apply those to the article without knowing the reviewer's specific findings. The article has 20 citations, and I believe all of them have links either to web page images or to images of documents posted to wikicommons. In viewing the article today, I see a warning that some of the citations may be unreliable. This just confuses me further, given that they are either published documents, images of hard-copy documents or framed testimonials, or images of photographs. I don't know how any of these citations could be disputed, but then I am not a Wiki editor. If you have any further thoughts on the matter I would appreciate them. BTW, the scolding I received from the initial reviewer included that I was posting my article, inquiries, and responses on the wrong pages. I am not totally computer inept, but I have found it very difficult to find the right pages to initiate conversations. And yours is the first comment that I was able to find what I hope is the correct avenue to continue. If that is so, I am grateful. Regards, Mbarrach2601:0:B100:264:F9D9:CA76:1C8B:917E (talk) 15:45, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

You have edited an article, so you are an editor - there are no special qualifications! If you need help with an assessment, the Biographies WikiProject may be the place to start - their talk page is at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Biography. The important thing to remember about sources is that they have to be verifiable. That doesn't mean that they have to be online, but they must be available, say in a library, so that if a user wants to, they can go and read for themselves what they say. The problem with scanned and uploaded sources is that (and I am not saying of course that you would do this) they can be manipulated by the unscrupulous, which is why we don't consider them reliable. As to the correct venue for asking questions, the best are usually the Tea House (for newer, less experienced users), or the Help Desk. I hope this helps.--ukexpat (talk) 16:57, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

R.e. Alan E. Freedman article: Your response eclipses the sum of what I have received in the 2-3 months since I started this venture. Thank you so much for laying it out so clearly. Regards, Mbarrach 76.111.36.241 (talk) 18:02, 31 July 2014 (UTC)

Book review: Knowledge or unreality?

In Common Knowledge: An Ethnography of Wikipedia, Dariusz Jemielniak discusses Wikipedia from the standpoint of an experienced editor and administrator who is also a university professor specializing in management and organizations. In Virtual Reality: Just Because the Internet Told You, How Do You Know It's True?, Charles Seife presents a more broadly themed work reminding us to question the reliability of information found throughout the Internet.

Recent research: Shifting values in the paid content debate

Kim Osman has performed a fascinating study on the three 2013 failed proposals to ban paid advocacy editing in the English language Wikipedia. Using a Constructivist Grounded Theory approach, Osman analyzed 573 posts from the three main votes on paid editing conducted in the community in November 2013.

News and notes: How many more hoaxes will Wikipedia find?

Another hoax on the English Wikipedia was uncovered this week—not by any thorough investigation, but through the self-disclosure of an anonymous change made when the editors were in their sophomore year of college. The deliberate misinformation had been in the article for over five years with plenty of individuals noticing, but not one suspected its authenticity. This leads to one obvious question: how many more are there?

Wikimedia in education: Success in Egypt and the Arab World

A "program of heroes" is leading the charge in Egypt.

Traffic report: Doom and gloom vs. the power of Reddit

We indeed moved far away from football this week, and further into much more serious issues of war and death. The Israel-Palestinian conflict continues to dominate the news, and the top 10, with Gaza Strip, Israel, and Hamas. The top 25 also includes Palestine and the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Death also lies behind the popularity of James Garner, the American actor who died on July 19th, Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, and deaths in 2014.

Two articles, four lists, and seven pictures attained featured status on the English Wikipedia last week.

Mark Kritzman Draft

Hi Ukexpat! Thank you for moving my draft to my new user page. I finished editing the page based on the suggestions made when I put the original draft through the Article Wizard, and so I tried just going ahead and posting the article. Now, though, when other people have search for the Mark Kritzman Wikipedia page, they come across the draft on my 200Boston user page rather than the actual Mark Kritzman user page. Do you have any suggestions on how to fix this? Should I delete my draft for the article? And if so, how do I do that? Thank you! 200Boston (talk) 19:23, 4 August 2014 (UTC)

Verification, creds, links

I have several books including two anthologies I edited, won two NJ State Arts Council Fellowships, one in prose and one in poetry, won the Kinereath Genseler Award for my book Panic (also a BOTYA finalist) with Alice James Books, and there are a ton of links to my work on line. A quick search pulls these up.

Traffic report: Ebola

Serious news continues to dominate the most popular articles chart on Wikipedia this week, with the Ebola virus disease far and away in the top spot. In the top 25, we see the related articles Ebola virus, which talks about biological aspects, at #18 and 2014 West Africa Ebola outbreak at #19.

The Wikimedia Foundation has published its first transparency report, covering from July 2012 to June 2014.

Special report: Twitter bots catalogue government edits to Wikipedia

Slate reports that Tom Scott, co-creator of the emoji social network Emojli, created a Twitter bot called Parliament WikiEdits to automatically tweet a link to any Wikipedia edits made from an IP address belonging to the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Scott's bot initially did not tweet any links to edits made from Parliament and, according to Scott, an "insider" reports that their IP addresses changed. Despite this, Scott's Twitter bot has inspired similar creations in numerous other countries.

Traffic report: Disease, decimation and distraction

It's been a grim few weeks. It says something that formerly arresting crises like the war in Ukraine, Boko Haram and the 2014 Israel–Gaza conflict, despite still being ongoing, have fallen out of the top 10 to make way for the 2014 West Africa Ebola outbreak and the equally if not more intense conflict against the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant.

News and notes: Media Viewer controversy spreads to German Wikipedia

Wikimedia Foundation staff members have now been granted superpowers that would allow them to override community consensus. The new protection level came as a response to attempts of German Wikipedia administrators to implement a community consensus on the new Media Viewer. "Superprotect" is a level above full protection, and prevents edits by administrators.

Op-ed: Red links, blue links, and erythrophobia

Erythrophobia is the fear of, or sensitivity to, the colour red. Recently, I have seen more and more erythrophobic Wikipedians; specifically, Wikipedians who are scared of red links. In Wikipedia's early days, red links were encouraged and well-loved, and when I started editing in 2006, this was still mostly the case. Jump forward to 2014, and many editors now have an aversion to red links.

In the media: Monkey selfie, net neutrality, and hoaxes

The Observer reported (August 2) that Google would "restrict search terms to a link to a Wikipedia article, in the first request under Europe's controversial new 'right to be forgotten' legislation to affect the 110m-page encyclopaedia."

Question about warning?!

Good day,

I`ve received information about an inappropriate link that I`ve added or edited. Can you please specify exactly what I`ve done wrong? I would like to be sure I`m not doing anything wrong here. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreea Codreanu (talk • contribs) 15:29, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

It looked to me like a spam link, and you removed the reference template which in turn disabled the display of the sole reference in the article, even if it is a dead link. In fact the whole article is mass of completely unsourced material and should be reduced to a stub pending the addition of reliable sources.--ukexpat (talk) 15:35, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

I`m sorry for the inconvenience,I meant to offer the page a new live link. I will pay more attention to each individual link. Sorry once again, thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Andreea Codreanu (talk • contribs) 15:42, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

Concerning deleted article Society for Planetary SETI Research

Hello Ukepat

About 5 weeks ago I sent the following message to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. I have received no response or acknowledgement. I would greatly appreciate your help.

Horace Crater >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> The note below is in response to the Speedy Deletion of a submitted article on The Society for Planetary SETI Research.

Please let me know if the material I provide below is sufficient for me to use the first few paragraphs from my website http://spsr.utsi. in the formation of my proposed Wikepedia articles. Let me know if there is any thing else I can provide to you.

Thanks

Article

hello

please i have not been able to submit the article , i would appreciate a guide that can help me t com[let this profile .. regards Arinzea (talk) 12:49, 26 August 2014 (UTC) Arinze Arinzea (talk) 12:49, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

I assume you are referring to User:Arinzea/sandbox? To submit it you would click the green "Submit your draft for review!" button in the box at the top of the draft. But I wouldn't do it yet as the article is far too promotional in tone and would almost certainly be rejected. I suggest that you take a look at articles about similar companies to see how they are written. Also, if you copied and pasted text from the company's website, that's a copyright violation and not permitted. You must write the text yourself. I hope this helps.--ukexpat (talk) 12:54, 26 August 2014 (UTC)

Beatrice Looi

Hi

Good day! I wrote an article about a living person on which I believed to be a notable person. I created Beatrice Looi yesterday and I was really wondering why my article has been removed/delete. I hope you can help me with this matter. Please do enlighten me.

Respectfully MarjaniMrsmarjanilee (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 07:27, 28 August 2014 (UTC)

As indicated by the messages on your talk page, it was deleted because it was too promotional in tone, reading more like an advert for the subject than a neutral, encyclopedic, article. Please take a look at WP:SPAM.--ukexpat (talk) 12:01, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
