Dear Rankersbo: You declined the above article as a test edit. I just wanted to make sure that you were aware of this article: Yang Yang (Atlanta giant panda). (It's not much of an article, even so.) —Anne Delong (talk) 22:36, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
- Hi Anne, I'm back from Upper Silesia. I'll have a look at the article and back at the one I declined and see what I can do- if I can knock it into shape myself I will do. Generally I see test edit as "needs a bit more work", not "go away and don't bother us with your rubbish". Rankersbo (talk) 09:17, 25 September 2013 (UTC)
- My understanding if test editing is more "I've typed four words now and I'm getting bored ... I wonder what will happen if I click on this submit button..." (see WP:Test edit). I just thought that if I hadn't known about the pandas, the submissions would have sounded pretty nonsensical to me. In any case, if you have been away, you may not have heard that we are having a backlog drive in October. I hope you will sign up.

Hello Rankersbo - I note that you did the decline on my effort to create this Article [with no content!]
I wonder if you could kindly look at my new submission and make comment as this is my first attempt at this task and at age 86 I like things to happen sooner than later!

- I don't generally go into such detail, usually I just take care of maintenance which stretches as far as declining blank articles. As an Electronic Engineering graduate of the 90s the name vero lept out at me- vero being a name much like hoover and ipad.
- Vero is notable, but unfortunately it seems we have articles on Vero at Vero Technologies Ltd and British Insulated Callender's Cables, so I'm not sure how your submission fits as a distinct article in its own right. We don't approve new versions of articles, we generally advise people to go ahead and improve the existing one. Rankersbo (talk) 10:03, 6 February 2014 (UTC)
- Many thanks for your kind reply. I apologise for intruding on your time.
- I have resubmitted my Vero Precision Engineering Ltd article complete with text - and also another article titled Vero Electronics Ltd.
- A further article titled Veroboard is nearly ready. I am aware of the Vero Technologies article which I intend to edit to link with my articles - this company took over the business in 2003.
- My overall intention is to rationalise the various references to Veroboard and present a definitive coverage of the history of its development.
- If this discussion should be transferred to someone else I would be grateful if you could give direction.
- PS I also am an [ex]Electronics Engineer - and the originator and joint patentee of Veroboard.

Hi and thank you for taking notice of an article I am currently working with(ernst kaps pianoforte). I am finding dedicating time to updating and improving/ learning how to manipulate this programme(wikipedia) a little trying. I have an further reasonable amount of history on this brand and images too. I did not yet want to become too involved, time wise, until I knew it was in an acceptable format/ layout and published. Once this is established, then the motivation to attention to detail will become a pleasure. I had tried to establish the way in which you tag an image but I appear to have failed? Anyones assistance here would be most welcomed.
Once again, thank you

Just to let you know
The "Epigenetics of partner preference" draft may or may not fly. I got involved when RHaworth was browbeating a professor at a university (see [1]) and I crossly intervened, telling RH to be more civil. My editing at the article was simply to give the uninitiated academic and his graduate students some guidance in how to proceed. But it may be that he/they have departed, as is often the case with content experts who get beaten up on, for not understanding the system. And I haven't time or expertise to turn this into a solid article integrating into the already existing epigenetics material here. (Alright, perhaps I do have the expertise, but I do not have time or commitment to the article.) It may have to go by the wayside. I would prefer, if it did, a means were found so the text was not lost to my access. All on this. Just wanted you to appreciate it is not "my article". (For one of mine, see [2]).

Draft:European Academy of Bozen
Dear Rankersbo, you moved the page European Academy of Bozen from “Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation” to draft space. Draft:European_Academy_of_Bozen. Why this, and what i have to do to finally publish the page? thanks Niuwörldorder (talk) 06:58, 30 May 2014 (UTC)
- I was doing some admin Niuwörldorder- pending AfC submissions are now stored at the Draft location instead of Wikipedia talk. I'm sorry I am not an expert in this sort of article, and while (to me)it looks very presentable in the formatting I cannot comment on the content. The problem now is there are perhaps too many refs for a reviewer to go through so it needs to wait until someone has time to look at such a detailed article.

Lisa Dalton (Lisa Loving) Speedy Deletion/Undeletion Request
Dear Rankersbo, I submitted a request for undeletion for an article titled Lisa Dalton (Lisa Loving) in hopes that I could continue developing the information so that it can later be accepted. I attempted to follow the format of another living person's page, Marjo-Riikka Makela, in creating Lisa Dalton (Lisa Loving), but feel I must have strayed from the more simplified format of Marjo's. I would like to workshop the page in the special:mypage sandbox. I hope that I submitted for undeletion properly and that you might provide a few quick tips as to why Marjo's page is acceptable while Lisa's current submission is not. Thank you for your time and consideration. --Josheard (talk) 16:50, 27 June 2014 (UTC)
- There were two versions of this page, one in "mainspace" that I tagged for deletion, and one in draft space here: Draft:Lisa_Dalton. You are welcome to contribute to getting the draft one into shape, which will be moved to the encyclopaedia when it is ready. You can work on this in your user area if you like but it's best if you keep the efforts in one place. Rankersbo (talk) 18:32, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Hello Rankersbo, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I deleted Madison McKinley Garton, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, under a different criterion from the one you provided.

- Draft:Liz Evans ( | talk | history | links | watch | logs)
Hiya, I'm really confused by the reasoning for this- perhaps I'm not looking at the right place for why it's being rejected but can't see a detailed reasoning? Genuinely not being hostile, probably am being an idiot, a prospective parliamentary candidate in a relatively safe Labour seat (ie should be an MP early next year) so should fit notability criteria- she's also referenced (I wanted to create this article in order to link to) within the Gower Constituency article as being the selected Labour member (her Tory opposite number has a page).
Kindest regards,
Alastair
Alastair jb (talk) 22:48, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
- Hi, you are lucky that you got a British reviewer as there are things you are taking as read that might not translate to a wider audience. The reasoning is given in the purple box inside the pink one, with further comments below. I gave you a reasoning that is tailored to the case, as well as the stock one. Basically, my understanding of the guidelines are that candidates are not notable under WP:POLITICIAN until elected. No matter how safe the seat is. Your argument is that Evans is likely to become notable, which I don't dispute, but you need to show press coverage to prove notability now. Being the selected candidate is not enough for that this far out. Rankersbo (talk) 06:44, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
Draft:John Boyd (Milliner).)
I wrote the article "A Milliners Dream" as a creative piece. This contained all the biographical information required to compile the entry for Wikipedia. For Wikipedia I have stripped out all the flowery text and presented the basic facts with citations from trusted 3rd party sources such as major British newspapers and the V&A museum London. I have read the articles on the milliners Stephen Jones and Philip Treacy and followed a similar format. I have removed the citation to my article "A Milliner's Dream" as this may have appeared too biased. I retained some of the quotes from John Boyd as they seemed pertinent.

Hi, I submitted an article about Mr. Sanjay Mehta yesterday and it was immediately submitted for speedy deletion. On my part I would like to say, that Mr. Sanjay Mehta is the Managing Director of Teleperformance India (a part of the Teleperformance Group USA, Teleperformance offices are present over 62 countries across the globe, please refer- wwww.teleperformance.com) and he has asked me to get his profile submitted on Wikipedia. The data which I submitted yesterday was on another site which we only submitted on behalf of Mr. Sanjay as he was a keynote speaker over there. It is definitely not for promotion, and I very well understand that Wikipedia is not for promotion. Keeping that in mind, I've only included FACTUAL DATA in the article and those cannot be changed, for example, his education, his career etc. If you suggest that re-wording it would help, please let me know, but like I said, the factual data would remain the same. The links that are given as References are the articles where he has given an interview or his article has been published in a leading newspaper. I also read and refered to Wikipedia pages of some other famous & influential personalities. Nonetheless, the article about Mr. Sanjay Mehta would keep getting updated/edited. I would request you to please remove it from speedy deletion if possible and some valuable feedback would be much appreciated on how we can avoid speedy deletion of the article the next time I publish something. We can also connect over a phone call/email if you prefer and we could talk it out (if that works for you?). Awaiting your kind revert. Thanks! Have a nice day.

Not asking for a re-review. But apparently, newspaper articles are not evidence or at least not strong enough evidence of notability? What more are you looking for -- articles in literary journals? The fact that the author is a recognized author of books about the Underground Railroad -- is that enough. The link to the website showing that was provided.

I decided to take on the article as a response to a request in the "Requested articles" section Wikipedia:Requested_articles/Business_and_economics/Companies and am determined not to give up! What were the changes that you made (you wrote "cleaning up the submission") and are there any comments you might have on the article based on the responses I got from Cerebellum and DangerousPanda? Also, do you have any "authority" to approve the article and, if so, would you consider taking another look at it to see if you would consider it ready to be approved? It'd be great if you could help me out! Thank you! All the best, -- Reconnamon (talk) 07:00, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
- Basically what I did was run an automated process that puts all the templates in the right place, comments out the main-space categories and removes stuff like sandbox headings. I'm not going to be much help, I just tinker round the edges at WP:AfC and tidy most days, and do the really obvious fails and passes.Rankersbo (talk) 07:52, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Hi Rankersbo,
Thanks for the comment about a lead paragraph to this article. I've added a very brief paragraph. How does it read to you?

AfC notification: Draft:Nucleus Software has a new comment
Hi,
This is regarding your comment on our page Draft:Nucleus Software "Comment: This is heavily referenced to the company's own website. Rankersbo (talk) 09:18, 13 November 2014 (UTC)"
This article is under process, we just wanted to remove the 'Draft' tag so that it starts appearing in the search results. We would be working on this further, trying to get as many references (internal to company website as well as external links). Also, the reference links currently added are from most reputed sites (bseindia, nseindia, moneycontrol, economictimes) which ensures the validation of content.
Is there any immediate action we need to take to fasten up the approval process for our page? BTW: Is there any guidelines about ratio for internal vs external reference links?
Regards, vishal soni (talk)
- I could see there were other references, vishal soni, but my impression was that the number of self-references were overwhelming and would make reviewing difficult. It will get reviewed in due course. Rankersbo (talk) 07:05, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Ok. Thanks Rankersbo. Will it be feasible if i keep making changes to improve the document now (After submitting it for review). Maybe i could add more reliable references by the time it gets reviewed. Will that be possible?
- You can keep editing it while it waits in the queue for a full review, yes. Rankersbo (talk) 11:06, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks (talk) for creating the Talk page for Nucleus Software. By when can I expect approval/further activity on this page? Is there anything i could do to fasten up the process (like running some scripts/automated-checkers etc.). Vishal0soni (talk) 05:08, 1 December 2014 (UTC)
Draft:Yukio_Utada
Hi! Why did you restore the copyright violation at Draft:Yukio_Utada after I had removed it? Do you think you could perhaps leave an wp:edit summary when editing? - it might help others to understand what you are trying to do. For your reference, the edit summary I left was "text cleared, copyright violation of [4]"; was that in some way not completely clear? Would you like to reconsider, or shall I blank it and list it at WP:CP (where, to be honest, we already have quite enough to do)? Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 22:13, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- You applied the AfC cleared template without declining the article, so I reverted it and hoped to decline as a copyvio properly. And when I did the check I found it wasn't a clear copy-paste that would warrent a blanking, unfortunately life intervened at that point, sorry. Rankersbo (talk) 22:21, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- OK, NP, I'm totally at sea in that AfC business, sorry if I screwed up. But, please ... do take care not to add copyvio material back into the project - it's enough work trying to take it out once! Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 23:21, 14 November 2014 (UTC)

Copyright checks when performing AfC reviews
Hello Rankersbo. This message is part of a mass mailing to people who appear active in reviewing articles for creation submissions. First of all, thank you for taking part in this important work! I'm sorry this message is a form letter – it really was the only way I could think of to covey the issue economically. Of course, this also means that I have not looked to see whether the matter is applicable to you in particular.
The issue is in rather large numbers of copyright violations ("copyvios") making their way through AfC reviews without being detected (even when easy to check, and even when hallmarks of copyvios in the text that should have invited a check, were glaring). A second issue is the correct method of dealing with them when discovered.
If you don't do so already, I'd like to ask for your to help with this problem by taking on the practice of performing a copyvio check as the first step in any AfC review. The most basic method is to simply copy a unique but small portion of text from the draft body and run it through a search engine in quotation marks. Trying this from two different paragraphs is recommended. (If you have any question about whether the text was copied from the draft, rather than the other way around (a "backwards copyvio"), the Wayback Machine is very useful for sussing that out.)
If you do find a copyright violation, please do not decline the draft on that basis. Copyright violations need to be dealt with immediately as they may harm those whose content is being used and expose Wikipedia to potential legal liability. If the draft is substantially a copyvio, and there's no non-infringing version to revert to, please mark the page for speedy deletion right away using {{db-g12|url=URL of source}}. If there is an assertion of permission, please replace the draft article's content with {{subst:copyvio|url=URL of source}}.
Some of the more obvious indicia of a copyvio are use of the first person ("we/our/us..."), phrases like "this site", or apparent artifacts of content written for somewhere else ("top", "go to top", "next page", "click here", use of smartquotes, etc.); inappropriate tone of voice, such as an overly informal tone or a very slanted marketing voice with weasel words; including intellectual property symbols (™,®); and blocks of text being added all at once in a finished form with no misspellings or other errors.
I hope this message finds you well and thanks again you for your efforts in this area. Best regards--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC).
Sent via--MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 02:20, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
- Hi thanks for your concern. I'm already on the case, there were a large number of copyvios caught yesterday. Don't know if it was Monday or if it's always like that. Rankersbo (talk) 06:31, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
Stub vs start
I'd suggest assessing articles like Talk:Tenement at Gdanska Street 9, Bydgoszcz as stub. Prose check script gives "Prose size (text only): 997 B (170 words)" and I support the rule of thumb of 250 words as dividing stubs from start. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:59, 18 November 2014 (UTC)
- If you wish to disagree and reclassify it, fine, but I am happy with my original assessment. Rankersbo (talk) 07:03, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

Thank you sir for the review on the Cokodeal draft.
Please sir, the organization is a start-up organization and does not yet have enough review in independent reliable sources. With time, i hope that there would be reviews in independent journals and articles. Is there a way to get around this for now, and still make the article accepted?

Thank you for the new info & helping out about the duplicate Raphael RJ2 page!
You are right about my duplicate page about music producer Raphael RJ2 and everything is accurate. I even have pictures but don't know how to post them!
This is the correct page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Raphael_RJ2
I have more info about Raphael RJ2's production team Beats How U Want Em winning a grammy with Lil Wayne but don't know how to add it or write it, I just have the proof sources. His production team is on Lil Wayne's Carter 3 album. Song titled Don't get it aka Misunderstood which has Raphael RJ2's group member Rodney "Rodnae" Young of Beats How U Want Em Credited.
Rodney "Rodnae" Young Jr also needs a wikipedia page being he is a grammy award winning producer. I know all the facts & sources about him but don't know how to write it in a factual way that wikipedia accepts. RaphaelJohnson2 (talk) 03:18, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Draft:Negative Energy
Hi, I reverted your cleanup to Draft:Negative Energy because it muddled up the comments made on the currently submitted version, with comments made on the previously-submitted and very different version. This led to a false presentation of comments relevant to the current version. Would you be willing to explaining the rationale behind your cleanup, so that we can agree a cleanup that does not introduce confusion? — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 09:38, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
- I just ran the automatic clean up tool. It puts templates in date order at the top, and then comments. Rankersbo (talk) 14:23, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

- I'm going to report it to the tool developers, I don't understand what the tool did to the comments.Rankersbo (talk) 17:28, 28 November 2014 (UTC)
- As far as I can tell it ordered the comments in reverse chronological order, presumably as it was supposed to. But it stripped out any paras that were not templated as comments (i.e. two inline entries being used as sub-headings) and slung them in at the end. — Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 23:20, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

- Elder Rankersbo, Sorry if my reference to you as a missionary is out of place. But your page indicates that you are a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Later day Saints. With I happen be a member of and know that all missionaries are Elders. Sorry for the side conversation but The WS-POE is simply a wireless configuration and addition to the POE specification. I'm simply trying to assist the next user that is looking into what WS-POE is. I was thinking that the link to the POE page would suffice. If you think I need to duplicate that information on this page that sounds counter productive and feels like a waste of space.

This is Mrjdavethor responding to feedback about my two contributions to the wemen in science list. I was told that I had not highlighted the "notability" of the individual scientist. I understand your desire to highlight the notability factor; however, it seems to me that Wikipedia could make a contribution to women in science by simply notifying readers about current women scientists and the work that they are doing. I went to the "women in science" entry and notice that the attention seems to be on past award winners. That is very important indeed, however, there is no reference at all to all of the women who are presently engaged in scientific work. Your request for contributions to women in science, with its list of names, is a very good idea; but I don't think that you should limit contributions to only those who are "notable". Surely any woman who has fought their way into the position of a research professoriate should get notice for that fact alone. Young women who are aspiring to such positions would benefit greatly from a list of such women and their specialty research (awards or not), organized by research domain or by university. Such a compendium would inspire them and would provide guidance as to career paths in research. Also, of course it would provide recognition for all of those women who are presently laboring in science in obscurity relative to their male counterparts.

I'm new to this article writing so thanks for the feedback and I'll look to add some more citations to give more notability to the article. I can add more content to the article too but thought I'd get it approved first before-hand. Is that the right approach?

- It's usually best to start small and build up once published, yes. But to be reviewed the reviewer needs to have some idea the company is notable so there needs to be enough context to judge the company, and some independent, reliable sources showing that significant coverage is out there.

Hello Rankersbo,
We don't know each other, but you reviewed my page and concluded that my page lacked a clear opening line. Without asking you to write my page for me, it would help me a lot, if you gave me some ideas as of how to do it. Also I tried to create an intro box, but miserably failed, even when taking the http out of other pages. Is it possible for you to do some guiding here as well ?

Please help me understand why you rejected a redirect on the WS-POE page? The purpose of the redirect is to help people to who are looking for Wireless Power over Ethernet WS-POE. I think that it is a subject that is related to Power over Ethernet (POE) or is covewred in the POE article. As such it should just a redirect to the main POE article. It will help a user to understand that the two techniques are related or that the WS-POE is a configuration change to the POE systems.
