Jishnu Raghavan
Hi. Im quite surprised by your comment on Draft:Jishnu Raghavan. Jishnu has acted in more than 20 films as supported by the reliable source from Indian express which states; His performance in the movie also earned him Kerala Film Critics Award for the Best Male Debut. In all, he acted in 21 films, including a Tamil and a Hindi film. He was next seen in films like Choonda, Freedom, Parayam and then later in a supporting role in Nerariyan CBI, Pauran and Chakkara Muthu. He also took a brief sabbatical from movies but made a comeback with super hit film ‘Ordinary’. Adding to this, as per WP:NACTOR, the person who has had significant roles in multiple notable films, television shows, stage performances, or other productions is notable. He is also the winner of the Kerala Film Critics Association Awards, one of the highest award given in Malayalam film industry. This makes him notable as per WP:ANYBIO. Most importantly, he has Wikipedia articles across 28 other languages. Most of those content was basically translated from English Wikipedia only. The article was unfortunately deleted due to persistent sockpuppetry. So could you please give me a further clarification on your rationale behind the declining. Thilsebatti (talk) 16:38, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Please include those sources and info, as it isn't present anywhere in the article. Tavantius (talk) 16:48, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- Actually I'm very disheartened by the behaviour of some veteran editors of this site and lacks motive now. I was happily coming back to my normal editing after a long gap at a slow pace . I just wanted to improve this site. But seeing arguments such as I'm doing favour for socks makes me disheartened. The article still has a big socking issue, but it doesn't make it non notable. Thanks and regards. Thilsebatti (talk) 16:58, 30 September 2024 (UTC)
- I have improved the article with new sources. Could you please take a look, especially [1]. This implies that he had notable roles in multiple films. Thanks Thilsebatti (talk) 17:49, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Tavantius (talk) 04:59, 3 October 2024 (UTC)Re: Ruth
Hey there, good job on Ruth! If I had to give one piece of feedback, you use the "would" verbiage a lot, ten times in the article. It's a fluff word that doesn't add much to the meaning. For example: " before weakening into a tropical storm over land. A weakening Ruth would recurve south of Taiwan" -> works better without "would" and mentioning "weakening" twice. Sometimes less is more. But thanks for working on an old storm article, and helping make Wikipedia a bit more complete. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 07:02, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

AfC notification: Draft:Typhoon Thelma (1977) has a new comment
Disambiguation link notification for October 9
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Effects of Hurricane Helene in Georgia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Georgia. 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.)

Good morning, Tavantius, and I hope this message finds you well. I am asking you to revert your closure of the MfD for Hurricane Kirk's draft. Although new information has emerged that could (and, with enough time, probably will) influence the outcome of the discussion, it isn't appropriate for anyone who voted in that discussion – including you or me – to close it. What makes this case worse is that, at the time of closure, most of the votes were in favor of deletion (though I would switch my own delete to a keep if the discussion were to be reopened), which causes the 'keep' closure to appear as a supervote. I was close to reopening the discussion myself, but having also participated, I had second thoughts about whether it would be appropriate. Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 11:50, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hey @Tavantius: You should never close an RfC, AfD, MfD or any other discussions in which you have participated, unless the nominator withdraws the nomination. If you believe something new has occurred that could change the votes, you should ask others to reconsider and wait for a third, uninvolved editor to close the discussion. Thank you. GrabUp - Talk 12:02, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you Tavantius for self-reverting the closure. I note that you also reverted your change of vote from 'delete' to 'keep' – just giving you a heads up in case this was an accident. Cheers, and happy editing, Dylan620 (he/him • talk • edits) 20:17, 10 October 2024 (UTC)
Maka (TV series)
Maka (TV series) has been deleted G6. Please proceed with acceptance of the draft. -- Whpq (talk) 15:45, 11 October 2024 (UTC)
That we disagree is fine
If you are correct, then someone will send John Gower (British naval officer) for AfD. If I am correct, they will not. I feel it stands a better than 50% chance of surviving an immediate deletion discussion, hence my reply on WP:AFCHD and my acceptance.
I'm sure you won't take disagreement personally. I've been wrong several times before over acceptances 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 20:02, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Moving a draft
Hello, Tavantius,
If you are seeking to move a draft article to a page title occupied by a redirect, please do it this way. Go to the Redirect page, using Twinkle, select CSD>G6 Move and in the field putting the name of the draft. This tags the page appropriately, providing a live link to the draft. After the patrolling admin has reviewed the draft, they can hit the "Move" link and delete the redirect and move the draft in one edit. You'll get a much faster response than if the admin has to cut and paste the draft title in the search bar to get to it and then use the manual move page option. Liz Read!

Updating track maps for the 1876 Atlantic hurricane season
Hey, thanks for reviewing and passing the 1876 Atlantic hurricane season. Because I can't add any comments to the review now, I'm going to say this here. I'm not against the new color scheme or anything like that, but I've never updated tracks and I'm not sure how to. 12george1 (talk) 03:55, 15 October 2024 (UTC)
Re: 1967
Hey there, I think that's a great project to work on! 1967 was such an active and important year. As for JMA intensity, I have a few points. First, you have IBTRACS, which lists the estimates from a bunch of agencies. Take Carla, the strongest storm of the season. It backs up the 900 mbar intensity estimate by JMA, and the fact that it was a typhoon (under the part "Tokyo Grade", and it's listed as "9"). As for JMA wind estimate, I don't see that anywhere in the season article right now. I just see 1-min minutes, which would suggest the JTWC. However, IBTRACS also includes other agencies, for more than just the JTWC perspective. You'll have to double check, but the China Meteorological Administration (CMA) might use 10-min winds. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:17, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks! I wanted to fix up 1967 as it was the most barebones of any typhoon season article (despite multiple systems killing dozens, and in some cases hundreds, none of them got an article). However, oddly, this piece by the American Meteorological Society and the Chinese Wikipedia's article on Typhoon Yagi states that the CMA uses 2-min winds. Tavantius (talk) 22:33, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- Hah good find about CMA being 2-min. But yea, a lot of older typhoon season articles are pretty barebones. There are many years that don't even have an article, as recent as 1934. Due to the high number of storms, you're definitely on the right path if you want to create a few articles. Carla and Clara both seem like good candidates, not just because of their similar names! Also Emma. But probably several more, considering there were 35 storms and 20 typhoons. That's a lot to write about, and there is a word limit at a certain point. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 22:43, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- With that in mind, should I make it so that the season will use JTWC/CMA winds instead of JTWC/JMA winds? Tavantius (talk) 23:41, 12 October 2024 (UTC)
- JTWC or CMA is fine. The JMA didn't become the RSMC until 1997, so we use them whenever they say something official, like the pressure, but for winds, yes, it's ok to defer to JTWC/CMA, since it looks like JMA only has winds going back to 1977. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 23:46, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

It's pretty good so far. For Sally, you should try and find more Philippine impact. You'll probably find info if you search for its PAGASA name, or once you have access to newspapers archives. Also, because Sally has its own article, you need to make sure its section in the season article is as short as possible. That's the whole point of having a sub-article, since the season article would be too long if it covered every storm in depth. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 19:46, 15 October 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Lewis family of Van, Glamorganshire
Hi,
Can you be more specific about why this article was denied, it is fully referenced so there isn't much else that can be done to fix it, you would have to help edit it rather than just simply denying it. As you haven't provided any valid reason for denying the page I have re-submitted and shall continue to do so until you have either fixed what ever your grievance is or accept the page. After checking the guide there is nothing on this page that includes "material that does not meet Wikipedia's minimum standard for inline citations" If there please point it out.

- The second and third paragraphs in the "Heraldy" section alongside three of the people in the "notable family members" section aren't supported by a citation. That was why I declined it, so I'm not sure why you claimed it was fully referenced. Tavantius (talk) 19:02, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- Have removed the family members but the heraldry para is referenced. I can't delete the House of Wyndham Lewis picture though if there is any chance you can help me with that it would be great. Demosthenes1999 (talk) 19:11, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- The two paragraphs in the heraldry section are referenced below as are all the notable family members. Demosthenes1999 (talk) 19:07, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- We could just delete the family members for now though to make it simple. The reference for the heraldry paras is definitely there unless you didn't read it. Demosthenes1999 (talk) 19:08, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
- As I stated previously, only the first paragraph has a citation next to it. Meanwhile, the other two don't have a citation there. Tavantius (talk) 19:14, 27 October 2024 (UTC)

draft : WePlanet
I am really at a loss, confused and puzzled by the comments received when declining my submisssion of this draft could you point for me the precise sentences which you consider as non-neutral, or even worse, "peacock"- like ( itself a highly non-neutral term....) in this version of the draft. I had already rewritten this from a previous version following previous similar comments from another editor, and you make me feel very very distressed, because I feel as if have worked in vain... I am not writing about myself and have no financial interest whatsoever in what I write about for wikipedia . Organizations like Weplanet are the target of frequent defamatory campaigns on the part of conspiracy-minded people and I have tried to provide a balanced viewpoint which is not easy because the mainstream organizations are much more powerful and vocal than WePlanet, and their views are more widespread I have provided many references from secondary sources like the guardian, which cannot be considered as biased (some people would say they are usually biased in the opposite direction...). I did also provide citations of a few contrarian views, but I could find only those among sources which are not really secondary sources, but mouthpieces for contrarian orgnaizations (like GMwatch, a very biased source if any...) 103.43.169.75 (talk) 08:58, 28 October 2024 (UTC)
