Buchalter, A Professional Corporation

Hello. It appears you have flagged the page Buchalter, A Professional Corporation as an immediate deletion. There seems to have been a previous article about this firm but it too was taken down. To contest this immediate deletion, I provided several points outlining the notability of this firm. However, you were unable to respond to the case in which I presented because another editor seems to have deleted that page as well. Can you please outline here why this page was voted into immediate deletion? I have edited several Law Firm pages and have noticed almost all have flagged pages however are able to stay up. What edits do you see fit to change in order to make this article work? This topic has received significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be suitable for a stand-alone article or list. I have identified and included independent sources (also called third-party sources) that fairly portray the subject, without undue attention to the subject's own views. The majority of the references are solely about the articles subject. The deletion of the original page was questioned by a Wikipedia editor who has been editing for over a decade. This editor requested the page be relisted for further discussion DOC James. In accordance with Wikipedia's dispute resolution we were unable to come to a consensus as to which would allow for this article to be published in order to satisfy both editors. Per Wikipedia guidelines, may we discuss and compromise this dispute since there is a disagreement over complete deletion of this whole article?

Hello. It appears your talk page is becoming quite lengthy and is in need of archiving. According to Wikipedia's user talk page guidelines; "Large talk pages become difficult to read, strain the limits of older browsers, and load slowly over slow internet connections. As a rule of thumb, archive closed discussions when a talk page exceeds 75 KB or has multiple resolved or stale discussions." - this talk page is 132.9 KB. See Help:Archiving a talk page for instructions on how to manually archive your talk page, or to arrange for automatic archiving using a bot. If you have any questions, place a {{help me}} notice on your talk page, or go to the help desk. Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 17:42, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

I'm seeing you are leaving friendly messages at talk pages such as this one (as opposed to that one). Are you using a script or a tool? Which? Thanks. Gryllida (talk) 06:24, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

@Gryllida: Yes, in a way. Normally I tagged pages for speedy deletion using our new page reviewer tool, which allows automatically notifies creates a notice on the talk page of the article in question's creator. This notice functions the same as, but is cosmetically distinct from, the template you referenced in your dif [1], which has to be added manually. SamHolt6 (talk) 06:44, 5 April 2018 (UTC)

Davidinkeene

DavidinkeeneDavidinkeene (talk) 23:15, 6 April 2018 (UTC) No clue who you are and why you want my first page deleted; it's plain you dont know the band but i thought that was what a encyclopedia was for. But rather than learning you want to "speedy delete" I also dont know if this is how i "leave a note" on this page.. this is my intro to wikipedia post ing... Can raandom people just say "speedy delete" to any page they fancey? Is this how it works?

@Davidinkeene: your article was deleted (per my tag) for being overly promotional and for failing to assert a claim to significance. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information, nor is it to be used for the promotion of subjects; rather, subjects must have their notability established through the citing of verifiable sources. To answer your question, yes I can tag any new article for deletion as I hold new page reviewer rights. Note that as an editor, you are warned before you publish an article that said new article is fair game for being tagged/flagged/deleted if it does not comply with Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I recommend WP:AFC as a possible alternative, cheers.--SamHolt6 (talk) 23:28, 6 April 2018 (UTC)

  You deleted 5 minutes after saying it could be  discussed or fixed..what was the point of the warning? Seems to me you abuse your position.Davidinkeene (talk) 19:15, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

Davidinkeene (talk) 19:16, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but you are also incorrect; the article was deleted by Bbb23, not me.--SamHolt6 (talk) 19:33, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

Sorry

Alright, Sam. I won't do it again. Surely, you can understand why I am upset, but I agree that a Wikipedia article is not the place to vent.

I look forward to more details being posted as you obtain them.2A00:C1A0:489E:9600:C8AA:7E25:273E:967B (talk) 17:18, 7 April 2018 (UTC)

Hello SamHolt6, nevermind, I am new in wikipedia. Heroes of 71 is one of the most successful android games made in our Bangladesh(My counrey). So it became a little promotional when I wrote abut the game in Wikipedia. But you could've just edited it and made it non-promotional. I will make some chandes in that file and try to make it better please pick a look at that article and confirm me it it's okay. Sincerely Ayan Boom(😊😊)

Sam -- thanks for your guidance on redirecting the Maura Horton to her company. I am in the middle of wading through some legal stuff around adaptive clothing (as larger companies catch on) and Maura holds multiple patents in the space. Trying to document it all. I will be sure to re-write and focus on her as the inventor/designer as opposed to company owner. Distinguishing people/technology/brands is of great importance here.

MissTofATX (talk) 09:32, 14 April 2018 (UTC)MissTofATX MissTofATX (talk) 09:32, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

@MissTofATX: The rollback feature does not allow for edit summaries. What brought me back to the article was further significant changes to the article that were again made without gaining consensus on the article's talk page. See more comments there shortly SamHolt6 (talk) 10:51, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

@SamHolt6...I thought your issue was with lists of products, and Smallbones was with advertising phraseolgy/worried about paid editors? Most liquor brands on wikipedia have detailed chronology on their pages, so as I said today, I completely overhauled what I had that seemed like advertisements. It's all bare bone facts, independent sources, ect.

@MissTofATX: I would counter that some information should be left off the page, as Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. You could stretch that WP:NCORP also takes a hard stance on press releases, such as the announcement of the acquisition of a new brand. All of this is better suited to the article's talk page, however; I recommend that you submit the changes you want to make their, then ping me, Smallbones, other editors from the talk, or file a RfC, and then we collectively decide what is inserted into the article.--SamHolt6 (talk) 11:25, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

I have restored the edits. The material is clearly not an indescrimitie collection of information but a well-sourced timeline of the company custody presented in a proper prose form. Removing it blindly is a pointless exercise in attaching a good faith, new editor who is clearly, based on the multiple areas of where she's edited, not a paid editor. Smallbones is jumping at shadows, and as usual has an overstrict reading of guidelines that are clearly not how they're intended. oknazevad (talk) 15:08, 14 April 2018 (UTC) PS, the fact that rollback cannot give an edit summary means it's inappropriate to use when making such a large reversion. It was intended for obvious vandalism, not good faith contributions. Be more careful in its use. oknazevad (talk) 15:11, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

@Oknazevad: I see you've been called to the Sazerac Company article. If you (as I gather from you edit summaries) agree with his additions, then I am assured that MissTofATX is no longer acting without some sort of support. My major concerns are still unaddressed; Potential WP:NOTNEWS, WP:UNDUE content, etc, but given that you have thrown you weight behind them and they are no longer acting by themselves, I will work the article from the other end along the lines of WP:CYCLE. Cheers.--SamHolt6 (talk) 16:12, 14 April 2018 (UTC)

@Samholt6: Before the dramatic theatrics take us further off the rails, the assumption of ::@Oknazevad: is a total mischaracterization. Earlier in the week, I edited one of Sazeracs acquired brands pages, incorrectly and oknazevad reverted my edits a few times until we disscussed it on my talk page. They took the time to explain what the issues are & I learned something rather than being stonewalled every turn. So, when I had with issues earlier this week on the Sazeracs & I could not get smallbones to discuss with me or answer any questions (smallbones only answered my question after they threatened me and posted edit war on my talk page). So, I did my best to figure out what the issue was, overhauled everything in my sandbox, and despite the way he addressed me on my page, I invited smallbones to look at what I was working on, give me feedback, and that my intent was to try and clear up any misunderstandings. I did not cite press any releases. I got no response. So, I asked @Oaknazeved to review my work, knowing there is no personal bias and could (and absolutely would) revert my edits if I was in the wrong. I've only been editing on wikipedia for less than 60 days, so I have asked more experienced editors to review my work. For a separate example, I've edited a bunch of random movies, got frustratingly reverted by an editor that works in the film project, so, when I had something I felt their expertise would be helpful on, I asked. That editor reverts my things here & there as well, when called for. There are no sinister motives, no connivance. And I did try to discuss on talk page and tag you & smallbones, only to find that y'all don't communicate with me, and I have no control over that, but to claim that I have not tried to discuss it is another baseless accusation. All of this is on my talk page. Know this, I will not be bullied in communication or through lack of communication, ever. enjoy your weekend!

Tiimiii (talk) 01:47, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

The former article's content was a word-for-word reproduction of slides from [5]. This was done without attributing the content to a third party, which in the United States represents a copyright issue. As Wikipedia offers all information on it as being in the public domain, it cannot contain information taken from elsewhere. This is in addition to the promotional nature of the article.--SamHolt6 (talk) 02:04, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

This page "Doble (Artista) is an Artist/ Musician is about the life of Doble. This page is not for promotional reasons. It is only to specify "Doble" as an artist and to show his biography and history. Doble is a Reggaeton and Bachata Artist with a growing fan-base of over 600,000 fans in Facebook, Instagram and YouTube (Combined). "Doble" has also been considered by Sony Latin Music by his ability to sing in Spanish and not being of Latino decent. I am Doble's Manager "Jorge Ortiz" and I assure you that this page is not for promotional use. Doble's fans mainly is located in Latin American as his music is in Spanish. It would be considered racist or discriminative to not approved this page as an Artist and idol being the first Non-Latino Artist to sing in Reggaeton y Bachata. Doble is well respected in Latin America.

Speedy deletion contested: Peter srinivasan

Hello SamHolt6. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Peter srinivasan, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: (Co-)Creating a notable work of indicates importance/significance (WP:CCSI#ARTIST). Thank you. ~ Winged Blades^Godric 11:54, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

CSD

Replying he so as to not confuse a new editor with off topic banter, but yeah, I've had these kinds of conflicts a lot lately, to the point where after I read a new article and/or search for copyvio/sources, I make sure to refresh the page before trying to apply a speedy deletion tag in case someone has already gotten to it. But no harm no foul either way. If it qualifies for deletion, then it doesn't matter all that much if it's messy, and I really don't understand some folks who have a strong opinion on whether we properly use db-multi to combine tags. GMG^talk 13:30, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

@GreenMeansGo: I have also seen some instances (like this one) where the new page reviewer tool does not display the "This article has already been flagged with a deletion template" and instead allows me to generate an unnecessary second deletion flag. No that much of an issue though, as I can always remove the duplicate--SamHolt6 (talk) 13:33, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Yeah, I wouldn't hold my breath for the WMF to fix it though. Honestly, if I come across an article that gets an A7 or a G11 before I find where it's copy/pasted from, I just manually type the nomination for G12 most of the time. GMG^talk 13:42, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi. I noted your comment at Talk:Lines code editor, "I will move the article to the draftspace, but note I am keeping the G12 copyright violation tag in place until the issue is fixed".

Speedy deletion Todd Person

Hi Sam --

So Todd is Cardology card reader for over 20 years. Cardology is a form of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cartomancy. Can you explain a little more to me about why he should be deleted?

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hollywood949 (talk • contribs) 01:31, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

@Hollywood949: Hi, thanks for reaching out. I flagged the article for deletion on account of two violations of Wikipedia's guidelines. First, the article was written in such a way as to be overly promotional (hardly surprising given the content was lifted from his Linkedin), which is a contrary to WP:NOT. The second and far more serious reason is for infringing upon the copyright of the subject's Linkedin page. Copyright violations are a major issue for Wikipedia, as Wikipedia's content is in the public domain and thus can be used for any legitimate purpose. This represents a legal issue if content on a Wikipedia article is taken (I.E. stolen under US law) from somewhere without proper permission, as the real owner/producer of content may find their rights infringed upon by Wikipedia. Hope this helps--SamHolt6 (talk) 01:41, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

Wrong

I corrected much of the information, you don't even have his date of birth correct or anything, I included correct information and was going to include all of the sources today as it was getting late. But if you want your article to remain incorrect, that's fine. I'll have to let him know though so he can state that the wiki article is false. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcwaffles829 (talk • contribs) 17:53, 17 April 2018 (UTC)

@Mcwaffles829: I may very well be wrong, but Wikipedia has a policy (see WP:BLP) that requires major edits about living people to cite sources. This is especially prevalent given the contentious nature of Meechan's work. I will restore the information I reverted if you can provide the sources you hinted at, but not before.--SamHolt6 (talk) 19:45, 17 April 2018 (UTC)
