I have now been given a lot of information about transfusion practitioners by transfusion practitioners from around the world. Could you please restore the page so that I can completely change the page based on all the information I have been given. Thank you--TransfusionDoctor (talk) 13:25, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi you cannot just copy in the text given to you as happened with http://www.isbtweb.org/working-parties/clinical-transfusion/10-role-of-transfusion-practitioner/ into Transfusion practitioner. However you can start writing again using original text. I cannot restore the old version as it contain copyright infringements. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 14:31, 20 July 2018 (UTC)

HKU students reach out to Graeme here

Hi Graeme this is Alex, can you provide the passcode via email for students to join the class?

Hello Graeme, this is Yuwei. I have a question. I am doing a page which is an expansion of original wiki page [Analogue Modelling (Geology)]. At the date of my page goes live (Nov.17th), will you help me to edit my extended part to the original page? or do I need to edit it by myself?

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:05, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

Rating

Dear Graeme Bartlett, thank you very much for your rating. I try to get better with every article and i woul love to read some A-rated article, to see, what is still missing in mine. Is there a list of these kind of articles? Could you be so kind to give me hints, what is still missing in my articles, or what you didn't like? I would appreciate this very much! Kind regards, --Gyanda (talk) 08:47, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

@Gyanda: If you are talking about Achim Zeman, the C class is the highest rating I have rated today. To get to B class it will need to be converted to English punctuation, have a bit of a copyedit and tidy up to look good on phones and wide screen computers. Perhaps there should be more on the artist's personal life, and a picture of the artist would add to the article. There is no A class possible for Visual Arts. But once improved to B class the next step is WP:Good article. GA needs a formal assessment. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:04, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your answer, dear Graeme Bartlett. This helps! Kind regards, --Gyanda (talk) 10:14, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading File:Zupan's Markets logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Hi Graeme, thanks for reviewing my article. I've improved and added a few more sources, could you check again in regards to notability? Thanks. prokaryotes (talk) 15:11, 23 August 2018 (UTC)

Notability on Northwest Unitarian Universalist Congregation Entry

Graeme, I have returned from my bicycling trip across the US have added a number of outside/public reference to my Northwest article. Comments added:

"In response to “notability” raised by Wikipedia editors, added approximately 12 additional pubic references from Atlanta papers emphasizing the historic significance of the century old stained glass windows housed in the church, recognition of the church’s commitment to social justice activities and its contributions to the Atlanta arts community."

Please review and remove Notability tag as appropriate.

BTW: I have been won over from an “enthusiastic contributor” to a “reluctant, discouraged contributor.” Wikipedia is filled with arcane, lengthy and confusing directions and woefully lacks examples especially on this notability requirement. I know you're only doing your job. But the cost of purchasing additional newspaper references and the time researching archives has made this effort "un-fun." — Preceding unsigned comment added by UU Archivist (talk • contribs) 20:42, 27 August 2018 (UTC)

Dashes

The MoS says "en dash (– or {{ndash}})". Why do you consider that the first needs to be changed to the second? Deb (talk) 05:57, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

What I put in looks a lot cleaner in the Wikitext, using "–" rather than &ndash ; or {{ndash}}. This is neither of what you put in, You can see what it is. The example given for the case uses the Unicode symbol for – . The reason you may not want this is because it might look too much like - or — or − which are all different in use here! Anyway I won't be tying anymore to edit that page we are disputing. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:16, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

I've always used – since the MoS was introduced, and I've created and edited an awful lot of biographies. I'm just thinking that you would be making a lot of work for yourself if you tried to change them all. However, if there's a good reason to use the alternative, I don't mind doing it in the future. Deb (talk) 08:06, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

Well you can see I have a reason, but it is not a very strong one. Can you type the "–" character? I use the insert at the bottom of the edit box. It is easier to use than the template or html. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:58, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

I much prefer to use a template. Particularly since en dashes are almost always supposed to be spaced, and the space before the en dash is supposed to be a non-breaking space; {{snd}} is just a lot easier to type. And there's the issue of clarity for a future editor: In the wikitext it is too difficult to see which dash (or hyphen or minus) has been used. Jeh (talk) 09:17, 30 August 2018 (UTC) (talk page stalker)

Well, yes, it is difficult, which makes me wonder why people think it's of any importance. I've just got so used to typing it (and I am a very fast typist, which means that sometimes typing can actually be quicker than copy & paste) that I've never thought much about whether I could make it any easier for myself.

M. A. Varughese

how can help this page from speedy deletion. They argue that it is previously deleted page. But the previous page had not been created by me. M. A. Varughese is the leader of largest christian church in India by people attendance. (with an approximate attendance of 8000 people). So it should be on Wikipedia. Please help this page to avoid deletion from Wikipedia.

@Arun4biju: Well the G4 was invalid, but the Early life section does appear to be copied from a web site. So the G12 was appropriate. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:55, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

@Graeme Bartlett: Can I overcome this by article rewrite?

@Arun4biju: rewriting in your own original wording will avoid a copyright infringement. I suggest that you write in Draft:M. A. Varughese so that it can be checked to prove that it would survive another AFD. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:46, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

Please explain the deletion violating copyright???? If it was the summaries those could have been removed. And IMDb plot summaries are not copyrighted as they are user contributed. 119.224.3.221 (talk) 01:47, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

It is the plot summaries that are the problem. Being user contributed does not void copyright at all. See https://www.imdb.com/conditions?ref_=helpms_helpftr_conditions for what imdb claims. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 03:16, 12 September 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Bacterial secretion system

Bacterial secretion system which I created yesterday was deleted

because the page appears to be an unambiguous copyright infringement. This page appears to be a direct copy from http://colloidalfrere.blogspot.com/2015/04/secretion.html.

And this I think is a very hasty and imprudent decision. The said blogspot is, in all honesty, one that I have never ever seen, and I cannot even access it right now to know its content. If my article had been carefully read, it opens (the lead section, rather lengthy one) entirely and genuinely with my own words. In fact the rest of the text, i.e. Type I secretion, etc. came from the page Secretion. Is there any check on the blog as a mirror page/copy of this Wikipedia article? If mine is a copyright infringement, that Wikipedia article should also be immediately deleted. In fact, my plan is to present an exhaustive article on bacterial secretion system with new scientific information which are not covered in "Secretion" and sub-articles, and rewrite my page entirely. It is disappointing also that I am not given even a chance to justify ("contest the nomination by visiting the page" is already dead). I have so far worked diligently in improving medicine and biology information through Wikipedia. This action is a bit discouraging. Therefore, I request you to restore the page, and I shall do the rest. Chhandama (talk) 11:13, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

@Chhandama: That is interesting because it also seemed to be a copy of a paper published in a journal which was pretty definite about its copyright claim. The Secretion page may also need to be chopped off, if that is where your content came from. Anyway perhaps its should be restored to see if someone else copied Secretion. The copyvio report alerts everything from Type I to type VI sections. But your introduction appears to be clean. Anyway Sphilbrick has restored it. To copy Wikipedia without a copyright violation, you must link to the earlier article, perhaps at the bottom of the article in an attribution statement, or on the talk page, or in an edit summary. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:07, 17 September 2018 (UTC)

Thank you very much indeed. As to the attribution, that would not be necessary, I think, as I am planning to rewrite the entire text, add more info, and perhaps, if suitable, submit it to WikiJournal. Chhandama (talk) 05:46, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

If you rewrite the lot it can also be submitted for WP:DYK. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:41, 18 September 2018 (UTC)

Your review

Hi, dear Greame, thank you for your quick work! :-) - How did you like the article? Remembering your last answer, i asked the artist, whether we could also have a picture of her, and she wrote back that she is willing to give one. Once i uploaded it to commons and everything is okay, i will post it in the article. Kind regards and again, thanks! --Gyanda (talk) 11:37, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

My reviews are very basic, to determine if the page should stay, or be speedy deleted. The problem of other people's pictures will be to prove that copyright permission is granted. A photo of a person, is not normally copyrighted to that person, but to the photographer. It is easiest if you are the photographer. Otherwise there needs to be written proof that the photographer is grantingthe license. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 13:21, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Dear Greame, thanks for your answers, i always do everything i can to fullfill the copyright needs, all will be fine! Kind regards, --Gyanda (talk) 19:55, 19 September 2018 (UTC)

Sri Somesvara Temple

I've just read this. The editor is continuing to add copyvio links to YouTube to the little group of related articles, including the one he agreed not to use. And as we have Mount Soma, the community where the temple is located, I've turned the temple article into a redirect and added a bit from it to the Mount Soma article. Michael Mamas is a mess and I see that this editor added a source[1] which doesn't even mention him but was used to back text for these edits[2] I'm reverting expect them to be put back.

AWB bug

This edit changed "contributory" to the rare variant "contributary", but your edit summary says you meant to change "tributory" to "tributary". So I reverted that word. If that came from AWB's standard edits, those edits should be fixed. Art LaPella (talk) 06:35, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

@Art LaPella: Thanks for fixing that. The rule was just a local one and designed to fix errors from tributary. However it also needed me to know that contributary was not correct. I was going to change all of the "contributory" spellings, I saw it was used a lot, but then I checked if that was a valid word, and it was, so I aborted that change. I did not realise that I had left a change done. I have now disabled that "tributory" rule. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:45, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

Liquidsoap

• Liquidsoap · ( talk | logs | history | links | watch | afd ) · [revisions]

• Hi, favour please. Liquidsoap was deleted at [AfD]
• Have found significant reference in article Linux Journal volume 280 August 2017 Creating an internet radio station with icecast and liquidsoap

  ... and I am finding putting "Liquidsoap" -washing into Google scholar yields significant results (not mentioned at AfD ?)

  Of the AfD .. the admin is no longer admining ... one delete supporter is blocked and the other sort wikibreaking though the nom may be active.

• I don't want to rebuild the article from scratch .. I have little clue about soap, liquidsoap or how to use them.

  Request Draftification or Userification to see what article looks like, and then to see if I can good faith/salvage it back with new references back to mainspace ( I could go via DRV but seems a poor choice as it may have simply been a WP:TOOSOON ).

  NB: Came across this deleted article in a side show in a sort of pre-rescue attempt of Altacast, however Liquidsoap is mentioned on about five other Wikipedia articles so its bigger than just Altacast.

  Tried as requests from undelete but rejected as had been part of a deletion discussion.

Colourise?

Hi there. Regarding your recent changes, is "colourise" not the correct spelling in British and Australian English? That's what I have in my Collins dictionary, anyway. Thanks, JG66 (talk) 12:10, 7 October 2018 (UTC)

@JG66: I also have a Collins dictionary which has (US) colorize, (non-US) colourise or colourize. I have been changing "colorise" which is not on the dictionary list to either colorize if it looks American, or colourise if it looks British. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:09, 7 October 2018 (UTC)

OK, but I think a few of the changes you made should actually be the British version, ie when the article's style is British English. As it happens, I see Adam9007 has just imposed this in the articles I was watching. JG66 (talk) 01:50, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

I've noticed that the script I was using changes 'Colorize' to 'Colorise' (and doesn't seem to think there's anything wrong with it when I use it to change to UK spelling), which is non-standard. I had to change it manually to 'Colourise'. Pinging Ohconfucius in case there's something I'm missing. Adam9007 (talk) 01:54, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

"colorise" is certainly not a standard spelling, not British or US. Anyone is welcome to fix the style of spelling to the consistent one. I merely used a default, and if I saw a header to suggest otherwise manually changed it, so the edit summary may not match the final outcome. It would be good if AWB had a flag to indicate spelling style. That would make it easy to tell how to change it. Adam9007s script is not doing the right stuff. I am just using a change and replace pattern that cannot tell automatically the spelling style. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:24, 8 October 2018 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Return of the Ten Masked Men

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Return of the Ten Masked Men requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Review question (Article)

Hi Graeme Bartlett. Thank you for taking the time to read my question. Months ago you helped me with the very first article I created. I figured you are the best person to ask. I am relatively very new to Wikipedia but am learning more and more as I dive deeper. The latest article which I have created; named Dear Reality, I believe has not been reviewed or checked. The very first article I created months ago, was reviewed and accepted, which I received a notification for. My concern is; have I somehow not submitted this particular article correctly, because I haven't had any type of notification since its creation? Is it because it does not qualify to be submitted, as I believe I have provided adequate review sources and comply with Wiki standards. Must I add some type of text for it to be open for review within the edit source? I have been reading into Autoconfirmed users, which I believe is what my account is, but I'm still reading and taking all that in. I just want to make sure I haven't done something completely wrong and can avoid this in the future.

I apologise if this question is very newby and may be making it more complicated than it should be. I get a tad nervous on Wikipedia as I know I am no way near as skilled as others on here. I am just trying to take my time and slowly understand how all things work.

Any help is greatly appreciated and really does help to increase my knowledge and confidence. Thank you! Falconik123 (talk) 20:07, 17 October 2018 (UTC)

List of gases

I have long been collecting information about gases. I now know about 844 gases.

I will gradually add information to the wikipedia page whenever possible.

1. Can your add list number into page "List of gases"?

2. XeO4 isn't gas. (Inorganic Chemistry. - 1982. - Vol. 21, No. 2. - p. 687). It vapor pressure is 25 mmHg (0 C).

Curious2013 (talk) 11:05, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

@Curious2013: It will be great for you to contribute. By list number, do you mean the name of the list, or the entry number in that list? The default there was the CRC Handbook. Perhaps I should add "†" or the like to mark these entries. If XeO4 isn't a gas with pressure 1 atm,at or below 25° vapour pressure, it should be taken off! Graeme Bartlett (talk) 20:31, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

Other symbols for indicating big lists: §¶‡¤◊*⁂‖

I mean entry number in that list. Some cell does not draw the borders of the table cells (e.g. Vinyldifluoroborane). Why?Curious2013 (talk) 08:48, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

THe lack of box drawn is due to the row finishing early, in this case because the minus sign is − and not -. These are two different symbols. The |-41 combo, terminates the row of the table, you should use |−41 with a unicode minus sign. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:15, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

Ahmed Farid

Hi there! I was sent a remark by concerning the article "Ahmed Farid" with tag peacock; I looked that up and understood the meaning, but I don't see how that applies? There are no words describing the subject as great or fascinating or anything, but there is a reference mentioning something close to that, so are references considered part of the problem if glorifying the subject? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MostafaAdelSaf (talk • contribs) 13:53, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

Hi @MostafaAdelSaf:. This is pretty easy to fix. The words that have triggered my use of the peacock tag are: "passion", "front runner", "scouted" and "Microsoft gold partner". For that last one it will be better to actually say what the company name is without any mention of its certification. Some of these words may be due to the writing style. Because Wikipedia is an encyclopedia please keep a serious formal tone. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:05, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

Thank you very much! I've rectified the page in accordance with your recommendations. If you could help with why the page was also labelled "orphan" and how to amend that too (I can't figure out which links to put where exactly, there are Wikipedia links on the page so I don't get what's wrong), I'd be very much grateful! — Preceding unsigned comment added by MostafaAdelSaf (talk • contribs) 22:33, 14 November 2018 (UTC)

@MostafaAdelSaf: "Orphan" means that no other article link to this one. So it means that you should find mentions of Ahmed Farid in Wikipedia and then link to this article. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:36, 14 November 2018 (UTC)
