Why was an advertising template warning added?[edit]

Hello Jimfbleak - thank you for the feedback on my edits to the page 'House of European History'. I am new to wikipedia, and would like to contribute more regularly. I am based in Brussels and passionate about European history, as a way of building bridges between people from different countries in the continent. I am highlighting free resources and offers for tourists, as well as famous people in European affairs. I was editing the page for the "House of European History", however you've indicated that my edits were like advertising, and thus a template with a warning now appears over the page. Please could you explain specifically what changes I made were problematic? Also, I would like to upload an updated logo for this page, but cannot seem to do it with my account - can you help with this? The previous logo is out of date. Kind regards Liam Jays (talk) 11:47, 21 June 2024 (UTC) Liam Jays (talk) 11:19, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Liam Jays I'm not sure what you mean. I've never edited that page, and this tag was added by Mean as custard
My query was solely in regard to whether you have a COI that you need to declare. Your response on your talk page doesn't really answer that

Hello - thank you for the feedback - I don't have a conflict of interest - what are you basing that on specifically? I've explained in the previous post why I am editing pages on European cultural heritage and tourist offers, in my home city of Brussels, Belgium. I have mentioned this on my talk page too. ~~~~ Liam Jays (talk) 12:51, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Liam Jays people who write about topics often, unsurprisingly, have a COI, and the fact that you are writing about your own city doesn't preclude that. You have answered my query, so no more needs to be dome Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:10, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Draft:David Goodblatt[edit]

Hey, you deleted my draft. Why? This is a very well-known researcher and historian. (He passed away a few years ago, so I think it's pretty obvious this isn't an ad. Enhazaam (talk) 14:29, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed the table at WT:Today's featured article/August 2024 so that your name shows up in the blurb column rather than the notes column ... and then it occurred to me that maybe this was actually meant as a note, so I'll ask ... are you planning to do the loon blurb? - Dank (push to talk) 19:47, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wait, I did that one back in 2017 at WT:Featured article candidates/Black-throated loon/archive1, but you're more than welcome to have a peek and a tweek. - Dank (push to talk) 22:04, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Dank, I'll have a look Jimfbleak - talk to me? 08:01, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Jim,

I wrote about a general topic which has no commercial implication or marketing related content. The usage of these certificates has an increased interest by the general public and is underreported, hence the need for creating this page. Isn't that what wikipedia is all about?

I would highly appreciate your input into the article and your added information to the topic to make the page better suitable.

deletion of the page for the artist Ali Hassaan (علي حسان)[edit]

Hello Jim,
you deleted my entry about the Egyptian artist Ali Hassaan using a fast-track procedure less than 30 minutes after publication. Unfortunately, you were faster at deleting it than I could add further links.
I would like to object to your reasoning (G11, WP:COI, WP:RS.).
Regarding G11: There are no links to commercial galleries that sell pictures by the artist. Only the artist and his work are presented here.
Regarding COI: I visited the exhibition "on the papier" 2022 in Cairo and have now created a wiki entry for this artist without payment and in a neutral tone. The artist Ali Hassaan is exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in Cairo and is currently exhibiting in the General Exhibition at the Palace of Arts in Cairo of the 300 best Egyptian artists.
Regarding RS: There are links to government websites and several press websites. I would have liked to have linked more external sites, unfortunately you were faster with the deletion.
Could you please tell me how I can adjust the entry so that it complies with the WIKI standard?
Many thanks in advance - Blana22 (talk) 14:09, 25 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Leo Wyre Zimmerman[edit]

Hi, I saw this article was just deleted. This was in my long-term improvement bucket. May I have a copy of this in my user space so I can rewrite it? I have seen at least one source that indicates his potential notability. Thanks. Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 08:04, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@StefenTower:, now at User:StefenTower/Leo Wrye Zimmerman, masses of unsourced crud and UPE/SPA editing, so good luck! Jimfbleak - talk to me? 09:16, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I may just knock it down to a stub and see if there is anything salvageable in there, as long as I can properly source it. Stefen Towers among the rest! GabGruntwerk 09:18, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

G11 deletion of Virginia Velasco Condori[edit]

Hi, I just saw that you speedy deleted Virginia Velasco Condori, which I was about to review while new page patrolling. She easily meets NPOL (having been both senator and minister in Bolivia), and, while some wording was definitely promotional, most of the two paragraphs was honestly fine and could have been kept. Spanish Wikipedia has a sourced article on her, and someone who has been Minister of Justice can easily be well-sourced.
Given that the article was unsourced for now, WP:BLPPROD would've been reasonable, but deleting the article without leaving time for new page patrollers to add sources is a bit harsh. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 10:48, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Chaotic Enby there is a referenced draft at Draft:Virginia Velasco Condori. We don't allow multiple copies of drafts, so one has to go. The one you mentioned was not ready for article space, and is poorer than the draft version. I think I'd need a very good reason to restore the deleted page and delete the draft instead Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:00, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the reply! I'll see if I can improve the draft instead, as it is nearing G13 range. Chaotic Enby (talk · contribs) 16:25, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Yash Wadali[edit]

It seems you deleted a page - Yash Wadali which was posted with WP:RS. This article was written in a neutral tone, and includes many independent citations. It is of a notable individual who is a renowned Bollywood Singer, and fits wikipedia criteria of notability* 1. “The person has been performing plenty of Live Shows globally and has been continuously registered on the eventbrite website* 2. “The person has also received a prestigious award or honor at a national or international level.” 3. "He has lots of music albums on Apple Music, Spotify Music and other notable articles. All of these have independent sources cited. Please let me know what else was wrong on the page which leads to the deletion. Your positive and kind response would be highly appreciated.

A barnstar for you![edit]

Can you please republish Syed Tariq Mahmood Ul Hassan[edit]

Hey there,

you have removed the page Syed Tariq Mahmood Ul Hassan. Which you created 2 years ago. Please republish it.

thanks & regards, team of Syed Tariq. 154.198.94.6 (talk) 15:16, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Your only edit is this message. The text was almost completely lacking sources and there were no independent sources supporting the claimed facts about him. The text was highly promotional and it's not clear that he meets our notability criteria. I'm also going to block this account for paid editing Jimfbleak - talk to me? 15:40, 30 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
