I was presented with a vandalism message, but I did not edit any wikipedia page
editI was presented with a vandalism message, but I did not edit any wikipedia page. I am confused, especially as I am on a shared network, which is collectively blocked from editing wikipages —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.80.20.230 (talk) 12:07, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

hello Vrenator I am not vandalizing "nick james" Thanks Nick James
edityour right his lacrosse is a much more interesting then my patents or multimillion dollar company right? Anyway I would like to create a page ( if need be I will have one of my people do it ) that is under Nicholas James not nick james but cant seem to figure out how to do it. It appears to revert to nick instead and says that page exist but not under nicholas it dose not. What do you suggest?
- Nicholas James is set as a redirect to Nick James. If there is more than one notable Nick or Nicholas James then a disambiguation page can be set up like this, Murdo MacDonald (disambiguation). I put a welcome template on your user page User talk:99.170.144.10 which gives a bit of help and guidance for new Wikipedians. I suggest to create a User first and edit using a log in rather than an IP address as you have been doing. Vrenator (talk) 12:15, 6 January 2011 (UTC)

editYou left a message for me on 29 December 2010: "The recent edit you made to Katya Virshilas constitutes vandalism, and has been reverted. Please do not continue to vandalize pages; use the sandbox for testing. Thank you. Vrenator (talk) 19:30, 29 December 2010 (UTC)". BUT... I bought this computer with, presumably, this IP, on 31 December and it was supposed to be brand new, unused! What does this mean? Was it a used computer? From the posting, can we find out the country from which this posting was made? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.157.191.107 (talk)
- The IP address is not to do with the computer you are using but the Internet connection. It is possible the IP address was assigned to someone else previously. The best way to avoid any confusion is to set up a user name and log in to Wikipedia with that. Vrenator (talk) 09:07, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

- I've put a message on your talk page which gives advise on creating a new article. You have already put the 'Hang on' on the page to contest the speedy deletion. you need to ensure that you provide citations to show notability.

Please reconsider Beelzebub's characters
editDear Mrs. Vrenator,
I understand your concern that my recent interventions on the "List of Beelzebub's characters" may seem overattentive to detail. However, allow me to explain:
- Since any criterion to leave out characters is essentially arbitrary, I've opted for maximal coverage. Other than characters who do not appear more than once, I've decided to include everyone, and Kido and Sadohara were missing. If you think this should be discussed further, please expose your reasons in the discussion page before reverting my recent edits.
- I decided to go into more detail on Saotome because he may represent an evolved version of Oga's powers, and because his introduction was a major plot twist.
- Kiriya's name was spelled incorrectly over most of the text.
- Sometimes, usage of the pronoun compromised understanding. In one instance, it would be impossible to say whether the text referred to Oga or Alex, for example. I took care to eliminate sources of ambiguity by using names in a more liberal way.
- Izuma's reaction to Saotome's use of demonic power was missing from his character's description. Symmetry with the other characters who responded to the pulse of energy was lacking.
Therefore, instead of reverting to 82.35.239.159, consider comparing the first version of 75.207.225.49 to the previous one by Hugosworld92. I say that because 75.207.225.49 is also I: you will find that I am almost solely responsible for the article in its current state, devoted a lot of effort to it and would like to have a word in its evolution. I believe there was significant improvement of the article relative to when Hugosworld92's version was current. The manga is very popular and the anime has just been released, so interest in the page is bound to increase in the near future. Is it not reasonable to present a neat description of characters for those interested?
If you feel that some of my edits are unnecessary, consider not jumping back to a version several steps behind, but to one that retains the most substantial changes and gets rid of the "unconstructive" edits. Or else, change the "unconstructive" parts back manually.
If you would like to make a substantial contribution to this article, why not help me with including more references? It is a tedious, cumbersome task and, although I have read the manga several times, I still cannot bring myself to do it. Finding the names in Japanese script is also in good order. 144.92.43.122 (talk) 23:09, 13 January 2011 (UTC)
- The main reason I reverted your entries was that it showed up as removal of content with no edit summary. I see you have now put those edits back in with a summary. I apologise if I was a bit hasty in reverting. I do not know enough about the subject nor do I have the time to provide references but I wish you success with the project.Vrenator (talk) 10:21, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

editSir I am a student of Sathyabama Uinvesity. This page has very an very old photo the university. So i want to put some new photos the university and its new infrasturure. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 117.197.250.42 (talk) 12:54, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
- You may have intended to put up new photos of the university but you actually put up a load of Wikipedia example files. If you want to put up photos you need to upload them first and ensure you have the rights to use them. Vrenator (talk) 12:59, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

A fraud like Richard Kastle does NOT deserve his own page...
editAfter lots and lots of searching, I was able to find a video of him accusing pianists (most of whom are now deceased) that they used shortcuts and had sloppy playing techniques. Here it is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-vwBkg3TbHg
As a musician, a piano teacher and performer - I feel it's pretty fraudulent to let someone like Richard Kastle have a page on Wikipedia. There have been a number of nutters on YouTube (one of whom was called MikeCaffey) who seemed to go to INCREDIBLE detail to try and promote this fraud, and to remove comments of those who disagreed (and chances are there are people doing it to his Wikipedia page), why I don't know, but I feel it's only fair not to promote someone who feels he needs to circulate untrue statements.
This video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=drEFMz7HiCU was made a while back when mikecaffey was rampant on YouTube. There have been some assumptions that Richard Kastle was mikecaffey, however it's impossible to prove or know how much truth there is on the matter (if there IS any).
As someone who cares about the quality of the arts, and music in particular, I feel I have to say this, simply because the fact that a page like this is dedicated to him, to me, reeks of someone 'wanker' (not you obviously), but some nut who seems to have no agenda but to promote this nutter.
I'm not denying that this guy studied at University, or that the page contains false information, but I feel that if someone like Kastle who mocked, lied and made statements to denegrade the reputation of others... then I do not see why this guy has... no, DESERVES a page of his own.
Is it possible for the page to be deleted... or is there a process that has to take place before it is deleted? I'm sure there are many others (and there WERE many others) in the past who saw Kastles derogatory comments as sick and decietful.
Thank you for your time.
- I note your comments about the article but putting them in the body of the article is not the place. Comments about the article should be on the talk page. I note you have made some comments there already. If there are factually accurate contributions you can make, put them in the article but be sure to include references. If you believe the article should be deleted there are procedures for that here Wikipedia:Deletion process. The criteria for having an article is notability - not likability so providing there are references to demonstrate notability then the article should remain. Your comment in the article saying it should be deleted is vandalism and this is why it was reverted. Vrenator (talk) 08:47, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
NO. What Kastle says is vandalism against the reputation of GOOD pianists... What I said had to be said. I shall definitely look at the process of getting an article deleted.
Did you bother to check?
editThanks for the warning. Shame you didn't bother to check what my edit was, else you'd have noticed I was reverting a vandalism edit by a IP that just has the intention of vandalising wrestling pages. 86.186.84.220 (talk) 17:00, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Kashoo Online Accounting
editVrenator,
I am wondering why you removed the addition of Kashoo Online Accounting? This is a fairly new company but has recently been purchased by FBC. Kashoo is the #1 search term on Google for 'Online Accounting Software' and has numerous non-trivial articles written about it. Does this company need a Wiki article before it can be included?
Thanks for taking the time.
Best regards,
Christopher. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tekgrunt (talk • contribs) 19:07, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
- The criteria for inclusion is that the company must have an article. To have an article notability must be demonstrated by including external references. All the other items listed have Wikipedia articles. Vrenator (talk) 09:50, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
Rapini

- I inadvertently reverted your changes and then immediately put them back. I've changed some of the formatting so that it doesn't go over the picture but I'm not sure exactly how you would like it set out. The best way is to find an article that is set out how you want it and copy the formatting or look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia. Vrenator (talk) 15:27, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

RAPINI 3/ over and out
editDear Madam. I appreciated your attention.
I tried again and, I don't know how or why, this time it worked.
The article is a very tangled issue and the boxex are necessary, as they contain detailed information, which may not interest the general public. I am not familiar with the procedures, so it was very fatiguing. If you want to complete the job , you might provide a redirect for each synonim of rapini. It is impossible for me, because just to obtain ONE simple correction, I had to fight a whole day with ignorant editors. Some are not native English speakers and, probably, have also problems in comprehension. A youtube COMMERCIAL video has been removed, if you can restore, it would be fine! Thanks for your help.

RAPINI- P.S.
editDear Madam, The article RAPINI has beeen vandalize by Bkonrad.Could you restore it?93.43.209.146 (talk) 08:21, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- I understand your frustration but the article wasn't vandalised by Bkonrad, he reverted back to a previous version in good faith as unfortunately the style and formatting of your changes left the article confusing and unreadable. It is unhelpful to verbally attack editors such as Bkonrad who are trying to keep Wikipedia a useful encyclopaedia. It may be helpful for you to set up a user account and a sub page to try out your editing on Rapini before putting the changes into the live article. you will find that if you log in and edit under a username your edits are less likely to be automatically reverted as vandalism. Unfortunately I don't have the time or skills to spend time helping edit the article but maybe another editor may be able to help - try putting {{helpme}} on your talk page. Vrenator (talk) 09:11, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
Rapini-saga
editDear Madam, I apply to your English fair-play. I haven't verbally attacked anyone!, on the contrary I have been very mild. 'Incompetence and arrogance ' is the LEAST one can say. I realize that an editor may be incompetent. The point is that if you don't like the format of an article, [because of your incompetence], you have the authority to change it, to your shame!. But you have NO RIGHT whatsoever to DESTROY one week of painstaking research, because you are too lazy or too ignorant to read and comprehend it. I am a retired Professor, and ,look, I grow rapini in my kitchen garden.I was intrigued by the extreme difficulty of the issue , that few people in the world can clarify.I hope you grant that is simply outrageous that anyone Jack-in-the-office may take the liberty of liquidating so many efforts without a warning, as you kindly did, or without discussion. If I decide to verbally attack your colleague, I hope you forgive me. With my best wishes. P.S. The Cambridge dictionary translates cimedirape 'turnip tops'.I guess it is wrong.Do you have rapini in Wales? A.C.93.43.208.140 (talk) 12:32, 4 February 2011 (UTC)
- Firstly, I did not destroy or revert your work, another editor reverted it and I believe he was right to do so. I have no wish to engage in any further discussion about the article. I find your tone to be abusive and insulting both here and on Bkonrad's talkpage. I have done nothing but try to help you to edit the article in a constructive way.

Speedy deletion question
editHello, I was just curious as to why my page [Savannah Bogat] was deleted. In your explanation for the deletion, it stated "does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject". However, I do not agree with that. There are pages that others have made that only say one useless sentence about the person, while my page provides adequate information regarding Savannah Bogat. I always thought of Wikipedia as a viable source for information on a variety of people, and for my page not to be approved, is upsetting. I hope you will find the time to review my page for Savannah Bogat and reconsider your deletion. Thank you. Savbogat (talk) 15:53, 24 March 2011 (UTC)
- I did not delete the page, that was done by an administrator, User:Lifebaka. I nominated it for deletion as there were no external references which indicated the notability of the subject. See Wikipedia:Notability for guidelines on what is considered notable. Your username also suggests that this is an autobiographical article- Please also see Wikipedia:Autobiography Vrenator (talk) 09:14, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Admittedly that was, but afterwards i was deleting sections that were not necessary.

Re: reverted change to Fedde le Grand article
editI recently edited the Fedde le Grand article to correct his birth name from Fedde le Grand (which is his stage name) to Ferry de Groot (which I believe to be his true birth name). This change appears to have been reversed by you on the grounds of suspected vandalism. May I ask on which basis you decided that my modification is (a) in error and (b) vandalism?

While it turned out to be the correct reason, nominating Frigate Ecojet for deletion under Very short article lacking context within 1 minute of creation is not Assuming good faith. It is explicitly stated that you wait a reasonable amount of time in the footnotes for this criteria see Wikipedia:Criteria_for_speedy_deletion#cite_note-Hasty-2. While I appreciate you are eager to work on New Page patrol it should be done without Biting the newbies.

Re: reverted change to Fedde le Grand article
editI did not see an edit summary or reference for the current birth name on file, so I'm not sure why the omission of these (to the best of my knowledge) optional attributes gets my well-intended correction reverted for suspected vandalism. Wouldn't it make sense to at least verify the correction, instead of just dismissing it based on the crude assumption that the lack of a summary or reference implies malicious intent? Absence of proof is no proof of absence.
FWIW: my source is the article below combined with the knowledge that "Fedde le Grand" is not a Dutch birth name and "Groot" is Dutch for big/great/grand.
Why do you keep reverting my articile I am trying to write?
editCan you explain why this is getting reverted?

Mahoonagh
editHi, Thanks for editing the Mahoonagh article back to its original form. I'm glad somebody shows interest in our small parish! However, I must correct you on the issue of Clooncooravane North and South. I'm a local historian and etymology enthusiast and my recent research has indeed uncovered an approximate translation of this region of the townland. Clooncooravane is indeed a very large region of the townland, hence its separation into two distinct areas and my insistence that it was a big caravan. The translation comes from a British mistranslation from the original Irish, into English and then back into the original Irish. It was thought that travelling circuses (or "clown caravans") would rest here during the long transit to Kerry, where circuses were very popular. I hope this recently discovered meaning can be re-added to the article as soon as possible.
Thanks,

IBM was an integral part of the Holocaust.
editI was browsing the news online and my curiosity was sparked about how many people knew about IBM's role in the Holocaust. I decided to check wikipedia and was dismayed to find that somebody saw it fit to put there that IBM "talked" about providing supplies to "accommodate" the prisoners. In reality the supplies that were provided were used to track all prisoners and log their names in a punchcard system. Since these punchcard systems were relatively complex machines, IBM employees at to visit the concentration camps all the time in order to fix them, If you think that this is not worth mentioning, especially given the fact that IBM also provided the weapons that were used against the Nazi party, then I am really not sure what to say to you.

Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know.

ERPNext
editHello.
OK - first thanks for volunteering to keep wikipedia sane and I totally respect your opinion to mark my page for deletion. But before you do, I hope you take some time out to hear out my case because I think you may have missed something.
Notability: This page is the de-facto listing of Open Source ERP softwares and very important for any Open Source project like us.
Why we qualify?
- The project is a fully functional software used by many clients across the world. (https://erpnext.com#!demo)
- Its been Open Source since 2009 (http://code.google.com/p/wnframework/)
- Being actively developed (https://github.com/webnotes)
- Mentioned in some of the leading blogs (see references in the main article)
- Active community (http://groups.google.com/group/wnframework)
Fairness: Please have a look at some other ERP pages and see if they also fit the same critiria you are using to mark this.
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedena
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebERP
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tryton
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LedgerSMB
Please compare:
- Please see what community they have
- Please find out how active is their development
- Do they have a working demo? If yes, is it just scaffolding or something real
Neutrality: Since I am the creator of this project, I may be biased, but if you look at the page, I have tried to keep opinions out of it and have also listed some of the weaknesses of the project. Like lack of automated testing. For your info - I have seen other projects and 90% don't even have any test case.
I will ask some other members of our project community to update this page. But I would request you to look at my case with fairness.
Thanks, Rushabh — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rushabhmehta1 (talk • contribs) 15:30, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- Update
Hello. I just thought a bit more and have an idea. Since you are a frequent moderator at List of ERP software packages, why not allow all open source projects to be listed and only those with "significant coverage" to be allowed a page?
We can also separate "new" open source projects from the mature ones, so visitors can decide for them selves. This way, all projects get a fair listing and we also keep wikipedia's sanity.
If you say yes, I can do the change. I the page is too important and needs a restructure.
(The reality is that the "significant coverage" is a self fulfilling concept. List of ERP software packages is the #1 search result and all listed projects will get more and more coverage.)
Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rushabhmehta1 (talk • contribs) 16:37, 4 October 2011 (UTC)
- Firstly I didn't nominate the page for deletion although I did tag the page as I felt it did not demonstrate notability, parts are written like an Advert and the creator has a Conflict of Interest. It is not my decision as to whether it gets deleted. I am just a Wikipedia editor not an Administrator. I do regularly look at various pages such as List of ERP software packages to remove "Red Links" as the main criteria for inclusion is that there is a WIkipedia page and to have a Wikipedia page the item must demonstrate notability. If you feel the criteria for inclustion should be changed it should be discussed on the Project's Talk page. You will probably find that on most of these pages there has already been a fair amount of discussion on what should or should not be included. Vrenator (talk) 08:39, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
CSD A7 on Arturo Alvarado
editI have challenged you WP:CSD A7 on Arturo Alvarado. In my opinion the claim about being nominated for a music awards is sufficient to pass the low standards of criteria A7.

NPOV issues about Naderkhani
editWhat should we do with Youcef Nadarkhani article? By media reports he was sentenced to death because of Christianity, and by official reports he's rapist. There's kind of dispute because some may claim it's anti-Iranian sentiment by Western propaganda and official sources are more relevant, and others may claim it's Iranian propaganda so Western sources are more relevant. Before I've edited text there was a clear violation of NPOV: sources and categories were one-sided. In my opinion, we should include both of it. --109.60.1.39 (talk) 14:43, 11 October 2011 (UTC)
- To Remove the categories you have and put him in the category of Iranian Rapists is unjustified.

- This article is not intended to add spam links. After the Zoo Printing article was deleted, I attempted to create a page that was more informative and did not come across as advertising in any way. The link to the Zoo Printing website was relevant, as the site offers clear information on the home page to define what trade printing is. My goal is to further educate people about the purpose and definition of trade printing. It's unclear to me how this demonstrates spam or advertising, especially as the link has since been removed. It's also unclear how this article is anything other than encyclopedic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Estduran (talk • contribs) 15:39, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

- I agree that you are very good at anti-vandalism, but tagging a page as empty one minute after the creation of a page isn't a good idea:
- "Consensus has developed that in most cases articles should not be tagged for deletion under this criterion moments after creation as the creator may be actively working on the content; though there is no set time requirement, a ten-minute delay before tagging under this criterion is suggested as good practice. Please do not mark the page as patrolled prior to that suitable delay passing, so that the wait does not result in the article escaping review at a later time." taken from WP:CSD#cite_note-Hasty-2

- You are a good new page patroller, please don't take our comments the wrong way. One of the reasons that people who watch Category:Candidates for speedy deletion are commenting on your nominations is because we are trying to avoid putting new editors off. Obviously this has had an unintended consequence of irritating someone who is an excellent contributor. Most of the nominations you have made are perfectly valid. Your talk page would fill up very quickly if we congratulated you on every valid nomination, which clearly results in a negative seeming talk page, and for that I'm sorry. --Mrmatiko (talk) 16:05, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Naive IP editor, but not vandalism
editHi there, I see from my watchlist that you reverted this edit at Paganism which very clearly needed doing. However the IP editor clearly wasn't being a vandal - if you read the edit they made, it's clear they were being misguided but very honest in what they believed to be improving the article. I've left a note on their talk page encouraging them to look at WP:V and register an account, as I think it's possible they might become a constructive editor with some guidance.

New to WikiPedia.
editHey Vrenator,
I am completely new to WikiPedia, the reason I created a Wiki Account was to create my very own Wiki Page, Oliver Crow. I don't really know how WikiPedia works behind the scenes yet, and that's why I am guessing that I am getting my page deleted. I'm not even sure that I am posting this in the right place, or if you will see this. I really want to get involved in Wiki, but it seems that I have already gotten myself into trouble.
Is there anyway that you can assist me in learning the Wiki ways?

So basically I can't make my own WikiPedia page without getting in trouble or being deleted by someone like you. Correct? Randomcheesecake —Preceding undated comment added 17:16, 17 October 2011 (UTC).
- Anyone can edit Wikipedia but you just need to ensure that any changes you make are properly sourced and constructive. If you create a new page make sure it follows the guidelines. Happy editing Vrenator (talk) 17:35, 17 October 2011 (UTC)
Why have you reverted my edits?
editHi,
I see my edits on the Datanomic page have been reverted. I was trying to address the concerns that this page appeared to be written as an advertisement, remove extraneous (and some obsolete) external links and to also correct errors and add correct factual information. The page has now been reverted to a condition that is inaccurate and full of marketing speak and few facts.
Regards, Dataguru
Reverted.
editHi Vrenator,
I'm just letting you know, that I have reverted your warning on User:Bongwarrior's talk page, as it actually was your edit, that just so happened to contain the vandalism, and Bongwarrior had just reverted it. Please make sure you carefully take a look at an edit, before you revert it, and warn a user, next time. Thank you, and Happy Editing! -- MelbourneStar☆ (talk to me) 09:06, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
- I was actually trying to revert the same thing as Bong Warrior at the same time - Igloo must have missed this and reverted the wrong edit. Vrenator (talk) 09:09, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
- Well that's fine, but just make sure you look back incase - 'cause trust me, in the small 10 months I've been here, I've had my run-ins with editors on simmilar issues. Thanks for explaining your reason :D -- MelbourneStar☆ (talk to me) 09:12, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Ernst Alexander Rauter
editWikipedia sais my article will be deleted if I won't provide it with a reliable source within 10 days.
Therefore, I have 3 questions :
(Q1) Do the links in the section "External Links" count as reliable sources ? (actually THESE were my sources for the article)
==============================================================
edit(Q2) Does this link count as a reliable source ?
[3] (probably from the German author)
=============================================================
editNote that this page (as of now) exists in 3 different languages : German, English and Greek.
I wrote the english and Greek versions of this page. The German one ALREADY existed when I wrote mine.
(Q3) Why the existence of the German one, does not (necessarily) mean I can write my article ?
(My article was based ALSO in the German one. I'm a bit confused, because it looks as wikipedia doesn't seem to consider itself a "reliable source" - I don't mean to offend anyone here)
==============================================================
editThank you for your time, Sincerely, ak8978
- The PROD (Proposed deletion) has already been removed so the article won't be deleted as it stands. Vrenator (talk) 13:15, 18 October 2011 (UTC)
Altered speedy deletion rationale: Sana Ditta
editHello Vrenator. I am just letting you know that I deleted Sana Ditta, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided, which doesn't fit the page in question. Thank you. A fluffernutter is a sandwich! (talk) 15:41, 18 October 2011 (UTC)

editHello Vrenator. Thanks for patrolling new pages – it's a very important task! I'm just letting you know however, regarding GamesPunch, that tagging articles for speedy deletion moments after creation as lacking context (CSD A1), content (CSD A3) and articles created through the Article Wizard, is too fast. It's best to wait at least 10 - 15 minutes for more content to be added, and the articles should not be marked as patrolled. Attack pages (G10), blatant nonsense (G1), pure vandalism (G3), and copyright violations (G12) should of course be tagged and deleted immediately. Thanks.Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 11:11, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

editI feel my edit was constrctive. I do not think you need 5 different defintions by different writers and authors, who each have a particular narrative. I think the guardian definiotion is the oldest one and most wildley accepted. I wanted to write about how the support for media freedom changes ie the policies of the Establishment are non constant they do change.Also wanted to explain the cycle the military is called in often as a helper of last resort but then fails on the political front --Multanguy47 (talk) 14:48, 19 October 2011 (UTC) please do not undo my change
- I'm not sure what page you're talking about here - I did revert one of your edits but that was undone straight away. Another user has reverted other edits maybe you need to speak to them? Vrenator talk 14:59, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
I did not realise you had undone it, I was just wondered why I got a warning --Multanguy47 (talk) 15:04, 19 October 2011 (UTC)

AfD
editHi. You recently edited World Marketplace. You might like to know that I've started an AfD discussion about the article here. andy (talk) 12:37, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
Hi Vrenator,
I've removed the PROD template you replaced on this page - the article creator is within his rights to remove it, even if he did so without leaving any reasoning. From your note on his talkpage, I deduce that you read it as a AfD template instead of a PROD - you'll be pleased to know that it has now been AfD'd for precisely the same reasons (I see you've already been notified, above). Sorry for the delayed notification, real life got in the way a bit. Cheers, Yunshui 雲水 12:46, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for letting me know - yes I had thought it was a PROD but I did think that the edit summary saying it was removing vandalism suggested that the user is not being honest. It appears to be a Spam only / COI account. He is also trying to drum up support for his vandalism accusations against User:Andyjsmith from other Admins - but I'm sure you've looked at his other edits already. Vrenator talk 12:50, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
- I see your point. I know of the issues with this user (I think I may have speedied a couple of his articles myself, from memory) - not sure if it's deliberate vandalism or just a chronic COMPETENCE issue. Yunshui 雲水 12:58, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Collapsed notes from article creator

Good afternoon, let me add few words in response to your strange accusations and group comments about me and some of my articles. About the companyeditBefore you put on the deletion it would be not bad to see what you are removing, and have a look in some original sources. I will not enumerate all, but merely point out three things only:
Conclusion: World Marketplace hardly needs advertising in Wikipedia. In general, people in this system involves a friendly attitude, an optimistic approach and a lot of completely free services ( for example: all money transfers are commission free to the bank or free hosting, free domain name, etc. ) Interface Designer (talk) 11:54, 29 October 2011 (UTC) Interface Designer About the article World MarketplaceeditIn principle, it can be removed, if you want to do it. I do not care about that. Just one thing I would ask you to do: please make removement as soon as possible. It is very desirable to look at this page now. Since the terrible inscription "This article is being considered for deletion ..." can not decorate such respectable System like Wikipedia. It's not just my opinion. If you decide to leave this article, by adding a few lines, I think, the World will be very grateful to you. About meeditI wrote a few words about myself. Something will have to be repeated. I'm not a young boy. And Wikipedia is not for money (I have enough money, thank God), and not because I need a career (I've been once working as an editor of a prominent journal, but it's long past time ago. I do not think to move back to this stage). In fact now I have, unlike many people, free time and I can afford to publish some of my useful life ideas. I think they can bring tangible benefits to mankind in various fields: from micro to macro space, from small to large businesses, from microbiology to medicine. This is one reason why I'm in Wikipedia. The second reason: I'm more and more attracted by all positive, constructive and, at the same time, disinterested things. In all this lies a gigantic power. At the biggining Wikipedia was also disinterested. General opinioneditI'm just 24 days in Wikipedia. In that short time I have seen here a lot of interesting ideas and met nice people. I can not say about everyone, but about some patrols can say this: behind the mask of an instantaneous speedy removals of articles with unselfish in words, lies hidden vandalism and as always happens in such cases: someone's serious interests, visible by the naked eye. People here tend to operate in pairs user (User talk:Andyjsmith) + user's administrator who help him (User talk:Nyttend), and sometimes catching up friends (User talk:Yunshui) to solve some of there questions. It's not a secret that all around and even inside Wikipedia industry is making money, but to the outside observer it looks quite good and free. If a person works for free there are only two choices: he is a complete idiot, or he has enough money to afford it. With your permission, I can put on the Wikipedia a couple of dozen different sources as well as where you can earn money in Wikipedia and on Wikipedia with whom and how. Although I think this is not interesting, because everybody knows it. I would not want to be like those comrades who misrepresented me and my first articles in the Wikipedia, but I want them to read this lastly. User User:Andyjsmith + his administrator User:Nyttend + there fried User:Yunshui All those who destroy, remove, and does not create, support or help people - is causing harm to himself a thousand times bigger than that which they have caused to the person offended or insulted by their destructive actions. This is an energy law. And it works everywhere 100%. The more you'll destroy the worse it will be to you on all levels, that's for sure and certain. One of your friends, by whom I was attacked User:Nyttend, is engaged in Aikido and he knows all these laws. So he did the right thing to resolve the conflict immediately. He is a very good person I think. An interesting point: if a man or a destroyer in your case the vandal (this is the one who destroys without thinking about the consequences and doing it without any warning) - if the vandal will learn over time to reflect negative energy attacks, destroying all his life (health, life, strength, brains, and so etc.), it is completely unknown why all negative energy somehow spreads to his relatives. A very strange fact. A sad example: physicians surgeons. Look at them and their families. 90% of unhappy people - although they do seem quite good things. My advice: until you have at least some chance to get away from vandal way - get out and start helping people, do not try to kill them! Have a nice day! And good luck!

Comment on talk page
editWhat I was trying to do WAS constructive... however I was not able to do it. I am now going to dit back the changes i've made as what I was trying did not work. What does not help is you posting that rubbish on my talk page literally the minute i edited it. This also gives users no time to roll back. I am an experienced editor and have made many edits helping to improve wikipeia. So I do not appreciate someone writing on my talk page the moment I do something which pupose was constructive.

I did it to make my best friend laugh, which I realise is not in the interests of the wikipedia community nor its mission to share the world's knowledge. However, he has been having a rough time recently and I know appreciated it. I shall leave you and the encyclopedia to it, and revert to being a watcher/user/plagiarist of wikipedia, rather than a vandal.

- Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia and any edits which are not constructive will be considered as vandalism and will be reverted - even if you intend to revert them later. If you continually make such changes you may be blocked from editing. It is not possible to make exceptions for your final day of high school this could lead to all sorts of "Joke" edits being permitted. Vrenator talk 11:43, 7 November 2011 (UTC)
Carlin correction.
editThe only correction I made to the George Carlin page was to put the album Am and FM before Class Clown, as it was chronologically released that way, and misrepresented on the page.

So I am protesting the warning I have been given. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.20.143.92 (talk) 13:45, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Taxation in Sweden (Taxation in Sweden)
editHi!
i only added the links to the www.skatteverket.se website for verification purposes, so that the information posted could be verified. They are not advertisements of any services, rather they are the only verfication of the source that exists.
The previous information posted on taxation in Sweden was not correct (obviously erroneous), and also, it too uses direct linking to the skatteverket.se website. I chose to do the same, but simply added links to the correct parts of the website.
Please advise on how to 'suggest' the changes if i cannot enact them myself. My apologies for any inconvenience. I am new at this.
I also wanted to add a link to the Nordic councils information on taxes in the Nordic countries, Nordisk eTax, however, that is also run by the Nordic Tax Agencies. Will that also be a 'conflict'?

Questions from wiki beginner
editDear Vrenator,
Could you help me improve article which you've recently checked (UkrSib Asset Management)? You've wrote, that this article needed additional citations for verification. But there are some proof-links (Net asset value ratings of asset management companies on Investfunds.ua and on Expert RA rating agency). Unfortunately, there's no english version of web-site Investfunds.ua, because it's an Ukrainian independent source. What should I do to place a correct reliable source? Thank you in advance! — Preceding unsigned comment added by AnnaPol (talk • contribs) 11:51, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
- I have put a template on your Talk page which gives a bit of guidance on creating your first article. Your article. I've also changed the references a bit on your article UkrSib Asset Management. You need to provide citations for all the information in the article. If they can't be done in English that's OK. Vrenator talk 12:01, 30 November 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you very much! I've just added more citations to this article. Is that enough? And could I hope that article will not be removed? And if everything is ok, could I remove "improve" message by myself? AnnaPol (talk) 12:44, 30 November 2011 (UTC)AnnaPol
- It is looking better. I see no reason for it to be deleted again but that's not to say another editor may see it differently. I've removed the Ref Improve Tag and put in a few "Citation Needed" tags where sources should be provided. Vrenator talk 13:35, 30 November 2011 (UTC)

Question about new wiki entry
editHello,
Today I just saw that the Wikipedia Entry about "Park Sanghyun" I made for MBLAQ got deleted. I'd like to know why. I saw that he and 2 other members still didn't got an own wiki page and wanted to do this. Did I do something wrong maybe, if so please tell me because I'm still a beginner. =)

StarWind company info?
editDear Madam! Right now Wikipedia has half a dozen references to StarWind software titles. Created by different people and in different places. Don't you think keeping article about company created them has sense? You've marked one as "advertisement" but it only helps people to verify already existing links! What should be done / changed to keep the article safe from deletion? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.211.183.197 (talk) 16:42, 4 December 2011 (UTC)
- A lot of the article really needs to be rewritten to take out the promotional stuff - the whole product section looks like an advert. There is also a question of notability which is why the article got deleted last time - see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/StarWind Software. It needs independent sources to establish notability (See Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies)) otherwise someone is likely to nominate it for deletion again.Vrenator talk 09:48, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

editDear Vrenator,
I want to thank you for your comments and recommendations. This is my first article for Wikipedia, so I found them really useful.

I hope you will help me make it better. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Runa zor (talk • contribs) 16:06, 7 December 2011 (UTC)
- Unfortunately the article has been nominated for deletion. It will be up to an administrator to decide based on the consensus whether or not it meets WP:Notability. As there has been a previous failed attempt to get this article established and having read the previous AFD it doesn't look very promising.There are not enough independent sources to demonstrate notability.Vrenator talk 16:34, 7 December 2011 (UTC)

- It is not up to me to decide whether it is OK it will be decided at the conclusion of the AFD by an administrator based on other comments by users and the consensus. As your comments here have been made from 5 IP's and a registered user all SPA Accounts. It gives the impression that you are editing on behalf of the company which would be a Conflict of interest. If you are serious about editing Wikipedia I suggest that you edit from a registered account and that you contribute to other articles. Vrenator talk 09:36, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Sadat X
editI'm confused why my edits to the Sadat X page have been erased. Sadat X made those statements. They are linkable. A figure that is notable enough to have a Wikipedia making such statements is, itself, notable. What I wrote was not false, defamatory, and was not irrelevant.
I am rather inexperienced editing Wikipedia, so, I am not being sarcastic when I ask why the changes were made.
Jedsa (talk) 01:56, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- As you have not made any edits to the Sadat X page since 20th September I am assuming that you are referring to the edit made my IP User :76.193.177.51 yesterday. If that is the case then the reason the edits were reverted was that there were no sources provided for the comments. If you can provide reliable sources for the comments please include them as references when you make any changes. Vrenator talk 09:20, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
I was under the impression that I did provide reliable sources for the comments-each one was linked to the individual Sadat X tweet I was referring to, and I think my links were input correctly and visible? I can't imagine what would be deemed more reliable than an individual's own verified Twitter account... Jedsa (talk) 00:22, 14 December 2011 (UTC)

Help dealing with a discussion with another editor
editHi Vrenator, You said I could ask you if I ever needed help, so I was wondering if you or someone you know of could possibly help me on something: I am kind of in need of a neutral party or two at a discussion I am having over on Talk:Child destruction. An editor who comes across to me as potentially having some ownership issues (James500, he is the primary and frequent editor of the article) reverted my edits and so I left a polite comment on the talk page explaining my edits and asking what he has issue with and how can we fix it, etc, see: Talk:Child destruction#Why were my edits reverted? Basically he hates every single change I made, claims that "they make no sense" and doesn't seem to want me to have any input in the article. He has already left me 7 replies (so far) over the course of less than 2 hours (at this point I still haven't replied yet). I can just see this going in a bad direction, so I was hoping that some other editors might join the conversation to help keep it from escalating, without having to make a big deal out of it or get formal help with the situation. Right now it's seems like he's telling me I can't edit the article and he will just revert any changes I make, and while I don't have any huge personal attachment to that particular article, I don't agree with his reasoning or approach and I think it's non-constructive and unwelcoming. Should I just give up and move on? MsBatfish (talk) 10:44, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Hi MsBatfish, I have read the discussion and while I can see that it appears that it may come across as James500 having Ownership issues, it could also be taken that he has put a lot of work into the article and is trying to keep it accurate. I am not an expert on the subject, have not read or got access to the books referred to and don't have the time to familiarise myself with it. I think James500 makes some reasonable points as do you. I suggest that instead of making large changes to the article you make only small well referenced changes with good edit summaries. Discuss any disputed issues on the talk page as you have been doing and if you can't come to an agreement then maybe it would be time to look at Dispute Resolution. Hope this helps a little. Vrenator talk 11:07, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks Vrenator. A lot of my changes were really small (although they were done at the same time), things like changing grammar and making some things flow better, removing things that were said twice, filling in missing headings, or removing random ['s etc. He is claiming they are all useless, and seems unwilling to consider any of them or make any effort to work out a compromise, so I'm afraid if I so much as touch the article he will immediately revert. Shall I just try to talk to him again and hope for the best? I was kind of hoping someone other than me would at least comment there so that I don't feel so alone dealing with him and so he realizes that other people are reading it. MsBatfish (talk) 11:18, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Maybe just test the water and do a small edit to correct grammar or something with an edit summary. If he reverts for no good reason then you can take it from there and maybe put in Wikipedia:Editor assistance request. I will keep an eye on it myself as well.
- It looks as if your edit has prompted him to make a lot of changes to the article himself all of a sudden as he hadn't edited it since October until today! I also note that James500 has been editing since 2008 and is a member of WikiProjectLaw Vrenator talk 11:47, 8 December 2011 (UTC)

Vrenator talk 11:07, 8 December 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, he's actually now made some of the edits that I had made, so perhaps he either just didn't actually look at everything I'd done and was only claiming to hate it all after the fact in order to back up his choice to revert, or perhaps he just wanted to do any editing himself. Either way, I think I will probably just end up leaving that article alone for a bit as it's not high on my priority list and not worth the un-needed stress. Thanks for your help.

Response to your suspicion of vandalism
editHi Vrenator, I'm new to Wikipedia, having just published my first article (National Guard units with campaign credit for the War of 1812), and I'm still figuring out editing and how to contact editors. I believe that what you have caught as "vandalism" was my attempt to edit my own article in response to a comment from another editor. Upon looking at a recent version of my article I found, at the bottom, a comment to the effect that my External Links section didn't conform to Wiki policies. I read the links in his comment (to discussions of External Links), and concluded that, indeed, none of my links were really necessary. Many were to a website (globalsecurity.org) that charges a fee if you view the website more than 8 times a month (or something like that), which, I believe, makes it inappropriate for use an External Link. Others just didn't add all that much to my article. So, I deleted all of them. I believe that's the edit you reversed. Thank you for your vigilence and any suggestions you might want to make. Cheers, (Mmcmartin35 (talk) 17:22, 9 December 2011 (UTC))
Thank you
editHello again, Vrenator: Thank you for the suggestions. I will certainly endeavor to do these things using proper protocol, etc, in the future. (Mmcmartin35 (talk) 18:53, 10 December 2011 (UTC))
WorldNet TPS
editHi,
It appears that you have deleted a page which I had created. The page was titled 'WorldNet TPS'. I feel it was unfairly deleted.
The purpose of the page is to provide Wikipedia users with some background/history regarding WorldNet TPS. WorldNet is the second largest payment service provider in Ireland and it is important that web users who choose not to use the WorldNet website (worldnettps.com) can access information regarding the company on the most popular encyclopaedia in the world.
I would like you to review your decision to delete the WorldNet TPS page.
Kind Regards,

— Preceding unsigned comment added by MarkWN (talk • contribs) 12:40, 12 December 2011 (UTC)
- It's not really up to me to decide, although one of the links is a blog and another a press release so probably not. I didn't delete the article, I nominated it for deletion and an admin then reviewed it and deleted it. Check out the link I gave you above and if you think you can establish notability you can recreate the article - this time properly referenced or you can submit an Article for Creation so that it can be reviewed before being created. Please remember that Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia not to be used for promotion. Vrenator talk 14:18, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Approach to newbies
editHi,
While I recognise the importance of quality control on Wikipedia, could I ask you to please take a look at this? Consider how that would feel, to the new editor, within minutes of them making their first contribution to Wikipedia. Instead of tagging such pages immediately, perhaps you could wait a little while to see how editing progresses (as it did in the above case, quite satisfactorily), or check the editor's contributions and if, again as in this case, they're new, reach out instead with some friendly words of welcome and ask of they need assistance? You could then tag the article only if they don't respond. This would help us overcome our problems with retaining new editors. Cheers, Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 10:12, 15 December 2011 (UTC)
- I take your comments on board. I would however like to point out that, if you check my contributions, I have on a large number of occasions assisted in cleaning up articles, adding references and categories where possible to retain articles with potential. I quite often tag articles quite early as there are a number of editors who will Speedy them too quickly and tagging tend to prevent this as well as giving guidance to the editor who has added the article.Vrenator talk 10:37, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for your reminder. I simply forgot to add the reference to the CV provided for by the ICC website which I had included with Anthony Carmona and Robert Fremr. I'd be thankful if you removed the deletion application. Best regards. --EBB (talk) 11:14, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
- Okay - it has been removed. Vrenator talk 11:16, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

editPlease engage brain before reverting edits. I'm in the middle of a GA review, undertaking edits being discussed on the review page, so your RV and vandalism message on my talk page is neither welcome or helpful! A quick look at the history page of the article would have shown I've recently made 174 edits to get it to the stage where it's nearly a GA-level aritcle. - SchroCat (^ • @) 14:03, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'm sorry - I made a mistake; it does happen and I am always quick to correct as soon as I am aware. Please be a bit more civil in your comments - insults do not help. Vrenator talk 14:07, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
Umbrella Media CSD Contest
editHi there!
I created an article about an emerging trend here in delhi. It is about using LED screens for the purpose of advertising. In Delhi, India, i have seen marketing with this medium for the first time, so i thought documenting it and its sponsors. I think i might have made many mistakes while documenting it, which must have made you mark it for CSD. I truly hope to make it a better article with your help & guidance, worthy enough to be put in encyclopedia.

- As I have said on the article's Talk Page there are no references in the article other than to the company's website and nothing therefore to suggest that it is notable enough to be included on Wikipedia. This would need to be addressed to enable the article to be kept. Vrenator talk 15:26, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
Dear Editor As per your suggestions, diversification of resources through references has been done in the article . Thanks for prompting the improvement. Dexter.enemy (talk) 16:14, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
Hi Vrenator! I'd be thankful if you removed the deletion application. Best regards, Dexter.enemy (talk) 16:49, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
- I'm not sure that the references given are sufficiently independent and that they demonstrate notability. An Admin will review the article shortly and will decide whether to keep it,delete it or tag it for further improvement. For now I'm going to leave it. Vrenator talk 16:52, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Re: Tokheim
edit- Thanks. Amazing that the inventor of the petrol pump was totally absent from Wikipedia!! It's a shame I'm not an expert on business/finance though. Hopefully, someone with more experience in the field will take over, but I think I'm about done now. Emeraude (talk) 16:41, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
Nine Technology
editHey there,
Just wanted to check in with you on the best way to establish notability on the Nine Technology page you flagged. There's a patent for the technology that the product uses, and getting one of those takes years and years of review, skepticism, and publication. I had thought the patent in and of itself made the company notable, but perhaps I haven't made it clear in the page. How would you advise making that more notable?
Thanks,

- Hi ajvsell, To establish notability you will need to provide evidence of significant coverage in reliable and independent sources. A single independent source is almost never sufficient for demonstrating the notability of an organization. See Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) and Wikipedia:Verifiability.
