Nominating Articles for Deletion

[edit]

Hi! I noticed you nominated 6 articles for deletion in an 8 minute span, and wanted to be sure you were aware of the Wikipedia deletion policy, especially WP:BEFORE. From WP:NEXIST: "The absence of sources or citations in an article (as distinct from the non-existence of sources) does not indicate that a subject is not notable. Notability requires only the existence of suitable independent, reliable sources, not their immediate presence or citation in an article. Editors evaluating notability should consider not only any sources currently named in an article, but also the possibility or existence of notability-indicating sources that are not currently named in the article." Did you carry out the expected checks before the nominations? Orville1974 (talk) 23:54, 7 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm DarkAudit. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to McGirr—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. DarkAudit (talk) 01:44, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to McGirr. Your edits appear to be vandalism and have been reverted or removed. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism can result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. DarkAudit (talk) 01:53, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

it was not vandalism. david mcgirr, who i know personally, really was mayor of huron south dakota twice. how is adding that info not constructive? i was adding factual info. Pcourteau123 (talk) 01:57, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It is generally considered bad form to include redlinked names into a list like this, and at first glance, mayor of such a small town would not pass the general notability guideline. So while it may not be completely vandalism, it is still not a proper edit. DarkAudit (talk) 02:06, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
his reference is no less significant than any of those other people listed who no one has ever heard of. youre being unnecessarily picky for no reason. Pcourteau123 (talk) 02:23, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
A subject has to pass the general notability guidelines, and in this case, the politician guidelines. Again, it is not immediately apparent that he is notable enough to pass that test. DarkAudit (talk) 04:42, 1 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
and thats totally fine. i agree, he's not super famous. MY point is that he's still no LESS significant than any of the other no-name douchebags on that list that no ones ever heard of. clearly that list was put together by someone with very strong leanings towards british/australian/new zealand sympathies and while thats not necessarily a bad thing, some jackass who played cricket in 1930 is somehow so important that HE gets put on the list? another guy who played cricket in the 19th century is SO important as to be included? really? it just proves my point: its completely arbitrary how anyone makes the list. roll the dice, flip a coin, theres no rationale to it.

Great Uncle

[edit]

Can I ask why you keep reverting this despite being pointed to the evidence that A) a great uncle is indeed a thing and B) is more used than grand uncle (which in Ireland would actually be a generation higher anyway?) Even the dictionary definition for grand uncle states it's another term for great uncle. Additionally there is the fact that you are changing the English version against WP:ENGVAR. Just because you personally don't use the term doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and in fact the term you are insisting on inserting which is not a common term in the English variation for the article, is also less used than the great uncle. At this point it comes across that you are being deliberately disruptive. Canterbury Tail talk 17:39, 17 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

youre an idiot. just because lots of people use the wrong term doesnt make it correct. right is right and wrong is wrong. unfortunately there are so many dipshits in the world who do the wrong thing that other dipshits assume its right. oh well, cant fix stupid.

Harry S

[edit]

Hello, an interesting amount of time. Anyway, I checked the 'S.' reasoning in Harry S. Truman and it makes sense, even though I agree that accuracy is important. He did sign autographs with the period, although I wonder how often or consistent. The Talk:Harry S. Truman/FAQ page does give a full description of the whys and sources used concerning the S. An interesting notice page. Thanks for inspiring my reading of it. Randy Kryn (talk) 04:18, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
