Please do be nice.

Please read before posting

[edit]
  • Post all new sections under a new header at the bottom of this page, not at random. If you make it clear you ignored these instructions by placing it elsewhere, I am likely to ignore your request in turn.
  • If you leave me a message here, I will respond to it here, as fragmented discussions are confusing. I may or may not leave you a notice that I've responded on your talk page. If you specifically request that I do (or do not) give you such a notice when I respond, I'll honor that request. If I contact you on your talk page, I will watchlist it so that I can respond there. If you'd like to leave me a notice when you respond (a ping will also suffice), it would be appreciated, and you'll probably receive a faster followup.
  • No lulztxtspk or emojis on my talk page, please. "You" is spelled "you", "though" is spelled "though", "because" is spelled "because", "people" is spelled "people", and so on. There is no character limit on Wikipedia comments, so there is no need whatsoever for ad-hoc abbreviating. If you don't even take yourself seriously, don't expect me to take you seriously either.
  • If you are an admin here to ask me about someone I blocked for vandalism or spamming/advertising, they've agreed to stop it, and you believe they intend to edit productively, go ahead and unblock them. If you still want my opinion please feel free to ask, but there's no obligation. For more complex cases I would appreciate a heads-up, but please go ahead with your best judgment if I don't seem to be online. I would appreciate it if you'd let me know after you do.
  • If you are here to discuss edits made to an article, please use the article talk page, not this talk page, to discuss them. If I made the edit and the question is specifically directed at me, you are welcome to ping me.
  • If you email me a question or request, and do not indicate why the matter is sensitive and must be handled privately (and such is not immediately obvious), I may ignore it or respond on your talk page rather than by return email. Talk pages are open to other editors to read, and so are the preferred method of communication for matters involving Wikipedia. If the matter you are speaking to me about is Wikipedia-related and would not violate anyone's privacy by being posted publicly, please use my talk page instead of email. This does not, of course, apply to editors who are blocked from editing, though I still may respond on your talk page rather than by return email.

FLORIDA CURRICULUM (GRADE K DELETED)

HOW CAN AN ARTICLE PROVIDING DETAILS AND FACTUAL INFORMATION ABOUT AFRICAN AMERICAN HISTORY IN AN EFFORT TO HELP EDUCATORS AND PARENTS THAT MAY NOT BE VERSED IN HISTORY....BE CONSIDERED AMBIGUOUS OR ADVERTISING??? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JPGonz (talk • contribs) 18:30, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Josh Jacobson - bot

[edit]

Dear Seraphimblade,

I am writing to respectfully request a review and reconsideration of the speedy deletion nomination for the article on Josh Jacobson. I believe that this article, which documents the contributions of a notable local artist, Josh Jacobson, aligns with Wikipedia’s goals of providing reliable and informative content about individuals who have made a significant impact on their communities.

Rationale for Retention:

  1. Notability: Josh Jacobson is a recognized public artist in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, whose works, such as the murals "Confluence," "Inner City," and "Prairie Petals: Lilies in Luminous Frames," are integral to the city’s cultural and public art landscape. These works have been commissioned by reputable organizations and are celebrated as cultural landmarks, demonstrating Jacobson's notability in the field of public art.
  2. Neutral Tone: The article was written with the intention of providing an encyclopedic overview of Jacobson's contributions to public art, avoiding promotional language. Any content that may have been perceived as promotional can be revised to ensure a strictly neutral tone, focusing solely on verifiable facts about his work and impact.
  3. Verifiability: The article includes references to independent sources that discuss Jacobson’s work, such as local news coverage and official city announcements. These sources are intended to verify the significance of his contributions and align with Wikipedia’s standards for reliable sourcing.

Request for Revision Opportunity:

If the article still does not meet the required standards, I am eager to make the necessary revisions. I kindly request guidance on specific areas that need improvement so that I can refine the content to fully comply with Wikipedia’s guidelines.

I understand that the initial deletion may have been based on an assessment by the bot or model used for identifying potential issues with content. However, I believe this is a case where the decision may not fully reflect the article's intent and content. I am committed to ensuring that the article reflects the neutrality, notability, and verifiability required for inclusion on Wikipedia. Please consider allowing the article to remain in the userspace or draft space for further refinement.

Thank you for your time and consideration. Dfsjlk1 (talk) 06:00, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion Review

[edit]

Hi Seraphimblade,

You recently reviewed my company profile [./Https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php%3Ftitle=Draft:Midlands_Parking_Ltd&oldid=1243529332 article], and you deemed it (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion). Please note that I feel it is a subjective assessment and that you have miscategorized it. All that article include is company profile, their services and products, and their operation. Nothing else. Not a single promotional statement as per my understanding. However, if you feel there can be some changes, could you please let me know so that I make the changes accordingly?

Thank you! Srezah (talk) 12:32, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion Feedback Request: VAULT Festival

[edit]

Hi Seraphimblade,

You recently deleted the page on VAULT Festival as you deemed it (G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion).

After the first submission of the page earlier today where it got flagged as being (unintentionally) advertising or promotion, I had made amendments to the article to neutralise the article further and add more external citations. So I wanted to check if the revisions I had added to the page had been taken into account in your review and subsequent deletion?

If they have been taken into account already, and you feel there needs further changes, could you let me know where so that I make the changes?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Andy AndygeorgeHAC (talk) 17:03, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

AndygeorgeHAC, as you have been writing promotional material, please first clarify if you are being paid or otherwise compensated to edit Wikipedia, including being asked or expected to do so as a duty of employment or internship. If so, you will need to make the mandatory disclosures before we proceed. Seraphimblade Talk to me 17:47, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Seraphimblade, just to be clear, I wasn't deliberately writing "promotional" material. It was deemed that way by others which is a perspective I politely contest.
But yes, I can confirm I am not being paid or compensated for editing Wikipedia and am not being asked to edit under employment or internship either.
Thanks
Andy AndygeorgeHAC (talk) 20:55, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Politely or otherwise contest it, but it sure was, both before and after your edit. From the very first sentence: VAULT Festival was one of the largest and most diverse arts festivals in the United Kingdom, celebrated annually in London between its inception in 2012 until it's closure in 2024 (the "largest" bit is sourced to [1], a clear editorial puff piece completely inappropriate as a source for factual statements, and held, not "celebrated"), underground warren of electrifying experiences, with each festival showcasing thousands of bold and brilliant new shows ("electrifying", "bold", "brilliant", etc., are puffery, leave the adjectives out), epic late night parties (do not editorialize that they were "epic"), and the whole thing is talking it up, often from unacceptable sources such as editorials. Articles should be strictly neutral in tone and content, and stick to factual information from reliable and independent sources, not editorials, fluff pieces, or the like. If you were truly unable to see how what you wrote was entirely promotional, I strongly suggest you gain experience by editing existing articles for a while before you try writing an entirely new one.
