Hello, I removed that edit because it came thru my talk page. Why would it be on my page for removal?

I reverted you because you removed a barnstar from DrStrauss's talk page. Did you mistake his page for yours? RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 01:29, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

I was somehow copied in on his barnstar and I removed it as I had no involvement in it, i dont know why it came up own my talk page

I don't know what you are talking about–I see nothing on your talk page. Also, what do you mean by "copied in on"? I don't see any evidence that you were ever mentioned anywhere in the "Good Article Barnstar" section. Could you please clarify? RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 01:41, 29 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello, first I apologize if I'm not communicating to you in the correct way, however there were recently made edits to NY Mets Pitcher Kevin McGowan's page. They were removed due to not having any sources, understandably. I can not provide any real citations, however if you can look where my IP address is from (If that's even a thing) you'd see I'm in Nashua, NH where Kevin is from. In fact, he was siting next to me when I made the edits. I can see if I have any old photos laying around that I can upload if it helps prove the info. Thank you!

Well, unfortunately, you'll have to get a published source to be able to add that info. Plus, there are some problems with what you said anyways. First off, it wasn't written like an encyclopedia. For example, don't say hone. I do have one solution, though. If the subject themselves self-publishes something, if there is no doubt that it was written by the person, then you can use it. But, you cannot make any claims that are exceptional (like one that isn't really believable) or any claims about other people (like their parents). So, if you can do that, then add back in the stuff that I didn't say you couldn't with a source (inside ref tags, like this: <ref>Source</ref>). RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 21:28, 30 October 2017 (UTC)

Signature causes lint error

Your signature is causing a newly-identified lint error, Tidy bug affecting font tags wrapping links. The error is that Wikipedia's parser software changes <font>[[foo|bar]]</font> to [[foo|<font>bar</font>]], but as we upgrade to HTML5, the parser software will stop doing that. Your signature also has an unclosed <sub> tag.

Your signature line,

• <font color="#2D3D67">[[User:RileyBugz|RileyBugz]]</font><sup><font color="#D7000B">[[User talk:RileyBugz|会話]]</font></sup><sub><font color="#D7000B">[[Special:Contributions/RileyBugz|投稿記録]]</font> (RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録)

is pre-processed into

• [[User:RileyBugz|<font color="#2D3D67">RileyBugz</font>]]<sup>[[User talk:RileyBugz|<font color="#D7000B">会話</font>]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Contributions/RileyBugz|<font color="#D7000B">投稿記録</font>]]</sub> (RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録)

but that preprocessing (except for closing the <sub> tag) will disappear before long.

It's questionable whether it's a good idea to override default link colors, but if you must do so, move the font tags inside the link brackets and after the pipe (|). And, while you are about it, please be aware that <font> tags are deprecated and will eventually be ignored; <span style ...> is used instead. Your sig file, preserving your link color overrides, would be:

• [[User:RileyBugz|<span style="color: #2D3D67;">RileyBugz</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:RileyBugz|<span style="color: #D7000B;">会話</span>]]</sup><sub>[[Special:Contributions/RileyBugz|<span style="color: #D7000B;">投稿記録</span>]]</sub> (RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録)

Note that the links to your user talk page do not work here because this is already your user talk page. —Anomalocaris (talk) 05:47, 1 November 2017 (UTC)

Request on 20:08:41, 7 November 2017 for assistance on AfC submission by Mirandafyfe

• Mirandafyfe (talk · contribs)
  • User:Mirandafyfe/sandbox/Magog Down (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi, many thanks for looking at my draft article on Magog Down. I'm stumped to know where to find what you would class as "a reliable source" for the existence of this piece of land and its name? It was obviously all in the news at the time the land was bought (in 1989) but none of those articles are now searchable online (or not in any simple way that I know of). The land is registered to the charitable company Magog Trust - would you expect a link to the Land Registry? (But they charge for such information, as far as I can tell, don't just leave it searchable.)

Help! TIA.Mirandafyfe (talk) 20:08, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

Mirandafyfe (talk) 20:08, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

@Mirandafyfe: You don't have to cite something online, but you do need to cite some reliable source. If you can find a source, even if its not online, that supports the existence of this, then you should be good. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 20:59, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

Clarification

Hi, I just wanted to clarify something for you based on your voter guide because you seem to have misinterpreted my comment. You have pointed to a spot on my archive and said that is the block I am standing by. That is not the comment I stand by. It's clear from your statement that you didn't understand my answer. Also, Guy Macon wasn't blocked, and I really have no idea what he's doing in your statement. As for your comment re: antisemitism, can you imagine if someone made a comment about a black, women, Muslim, and that person said, "I don't know if you meant it, but your comment came off as being anti-black, women, Muslim?" Don't you think the civil response would be "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it in any bad way and if you perceive it as such, I apologize and I will edit my comment?" I have emailed that comment and context to many people and 99% of the people shared the concern I had. Regardless, I wanted to set the record straight with regards to the block comment. Sir Joseph ^(talk) 14:25, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

@Sir Joseph: In relation to the anti-semitic thing, I was more talking about your tone. Sure, its fine to address those things, but you should have been a bit less accusatory about it (not to justify the other person's comments; they certainly weren't right at all). And, as for Guy Macon, I mentioned him because you 1. implied that you stood by that comment (see Boing!'s 3rd question for you) and 2. never said otherwise. I will remove that, though, since you seem to not stand by it any more. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 16:12, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

My statement about standing by my comment was in regards to my comment that got me blocked, Guy Macon had nothing to do with it. I don't want to mention it or link you to it because I don't want to get blocked again. (Even though I am 100% sure the person I made that comment about could not give one flying Jimbo about my comment. I made a comment about an admin, and another admin blocked me for that comment.)

Hi there! I got your comment on the draft of the page I've been writing, for Xometry. Thank you for your feedback, I really appreciate it. I've gone in and made edits with more solid news sources including Forbes, Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, USA News, and more. Looking at the draft now, is there anything else you would recommend I can edit? Any feedback you could give on this draft would be very helpful for my editing. Thank you so much!

Sgarg01 (talk) 15:12, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

@Sgarg01: Hello! I declined again; see my comment on the draft for more information. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 16:19, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

Hi there, thanks for your prompt response! I've adjusted for a neutral tone and taken out all press releases. Really appreciate all your help with this. I think the latest draft should be good to go, if you could take a final review - thanks again!!Sgarg01 (talk) 14:39, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

@Sgarg01: And I've accepted it! Also, thanks for your cooperation with the process; it isn't rare that we get people unwilling to remove promotionalism from their draft just so they can promote their company. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 14:56, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Draft:Evgeny Sklyanin

Hi RileyBugz, I see you declined the above, which puzzles me. For any article on WP:AFC, the passing criteria, if the article is going to deleted in mainspace, then it should be passed. The guy easily passes WP:PROF. Here is his stats from GScholar.

Citations 10099 2344 h-index 36 23 i10-index 50 36

Cited 10099 times. Easily passing WP:BIO. The criteria is, even if it had no references and it is notable, it should pass WP:AFC, as they can be added later. Next please be more careful. scope_creep (talk) 16:48, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

@Scope creep: That would be a violation of BLP, though, so I would still decline it. I mean, sure, I probably should have added a few references myself, but I don't see how there would be a problem with a decline for a draft in violation of policy. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 16:54, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

It is not violation of WP:BLP. Please read the front page of WP:AFC. This is what it says at: Wikipedia:WikiProject Articles for creation/Reviewing instructions. It says in the coloured box:

If this article were nominated for deletion at WP:AFD, would it be likely to survive?

• Yes, it will probably be kept. Then ACCEPT it now. (You can tag non-deletion-worthy problems.)

The guy is also memeber of the Royal Society, which is the premier scientific society in the UK. By any definition of WP:AFD, it would have passed an automatic snow keep by everybody. The whole process of WP:AFC is to gate to check articles for notabilty. If they are verifiable, then pushed on. If they are not verifiable, then tag them. It took me a bit, until I went through this process as well. I was hoping to have shiny brand articles out of it, fully ref's and linked, but doesn't work like that. It is much simpler, it is a gate. scope_creep (talk) 17:05, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

@Scope creep: (by the way, are you watching this page so I don't have to ping you?) I just referenced it... RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 17:51, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Yip. I passed it, and added a reference. scope_creep (talk) 18:00, 25 November 2017 (UTC)

Stubs

Hi, can you expand that stub a bit, it's a bit short for the list at present. Thanks for creating it though.♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:00, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

@Dr. Blofeld: Will do. It might take a while, though, since there aren't any more sources in English that I can use, so I will have to find articles in Japanese. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 18:06, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Try to add a few more lines and it should be OK. Thanks!♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:10, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Eh... I'll just remove it, because I don't think I can expand it enough. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 18:25, 26 November 2017 (UTC)

Hello RileyBugz,

I noticed that you are considering a run for administrator, and I am glad to hear that. I just want to offer a friendly and entirely optional suggestion. There are some editors who object to to signatures that include text not in the Latin alphabet, since they cannot read that text. You may want to think about revising your signature to remove a minor reason to oppose. The decision is your, of course. Good luck! Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 17:15, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

If someone is opposing purely because of a few non-Latin characters, their vote should be shown the door. Primefac (talk) 17:35, 30 November 2017 (UTC) (talk page stalker)

@Cullen328: Thanks, but I would like to keep my signature as is. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 19:22, 30 November 2017 (UTC)

Ericorbit • Perceval • Thingg • Tristanb • Violetriga

Guideline and policy news

• Following a request for comment, a new section has been added to the username policy which disallows usernames containing emoji, emoticons or otherwise "decorative" usernames, and usernames that use any non-language symbols. Administrators should discuss issues related to these types of usernames before blocking.

Technical news

• Wikimedians are now invited to vote on the proposals in the 2017 Community Wishlist Survey on Meta Wiki until 10 December 2017. In particular, there is a section of the survey regarding new tools for administrators and for anti-harassment.
• A new function is available to edit filter managers which can be used to store matches from regular expressions.

Arbitration

• Voting in the 2017 Arbitration Committee elections is open until Sunday 23:59, 10 December 2017 (UTC). There are 12 candidates running for 8 vacant seats.

Miscellaneous

• Over the last few months, several users have reported backlogs that require administrator attention at WP:ANI, with the most common backlogs showing up on WP:SPI, WP:AIV and WP:RFPP. It is requested that all administrators take some time during this month to help clear backlogs wherever possible. It should be noted that AIV reports are not always valid; however, they still need to be cleared, which may include needing to remind users on what qualifies as vandalism.
• The Wikimedia Foundation Community health initiative is conducting a survey for English Wikipedia contributors on their experience and satisfaction level with Administrator’s Noticeboard/Incidents. This survey will be integral to gathering information about how this noticeboard works (i.e. which problems it deals with well and which problems it struggles with). If you would like to take this survey, please sign up on this page, and a link for the survey will be emailed to you via Special:EmailUser.

20:32:53, 5 December 2017 review of submission by Lloan

• Lloan (talk · contribs)
  • Draft:Fit Body Boot Camp (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Thanks for reviewing. I submitted a question elsewhere, I believe. Very new to the Wikipedia environment. My question is, would it be possible to get a bit more detail or any tips as far as what you think I should remove from the article? A company that is similar to FBBC has a Wiki page and they ultimately have the same kind of content and we even have similar links -> Orange Theory Fitness. I essentially utilizes Orange Theory's Wiki to create a draft for FBBC. Also, is the graph on the right with the information generated by Wikipedia or is that something we create when viewing the Orange Theory Fitness wiki page, includes their logo?

@Lloan: First off, the Orange Theory Fitness article is a bad model to go off of. As for what you should remove, there are a good amount of things. First, look at this list to see terms that are usually just to promote the subject. If you see any of them in your article, then they should probably be removed. But, I think that your problem is really that the article almost needs to be fundamentally rewritten. If you want an example to go off of, go see the McDonald's article, or something similar, to get an idea of what an acceptable article should look like (although yours certainly doesn't have to be that long). It introduces the subject, tells you who founded it, where, but not why it was founded. As for creating the box at the right, you can fill in a template (Template:Infobox company, in this case) to get it. If you need help with anything else, just ask.

Unreliable sources

Hi you deleted the section I added to honey in Islam stating that I had unreliable sources. I wanted to ask what about my source was unreliable. It's a book and I believe it's a reliable source. Thank you

This was the other source a book as well. https://books.google.com/books/about/Sugar.html?id=v_hQDQAAQBAJ Khatijajaffer (talk) 16:23, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

@Khatijajaffer: It was actually Zefr who reverted your edits. As it happens, I think that your edit should not have been reverted. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 16:38, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

This edit does not have reliable sources. The book reference, using the word "healing" about honey, is spam (see WP:MEDRS for sources in context of human health), and references to the Quran and an ancient prophet are not reliably objective or documented, i.e., not WP:RS. --Zefr (talk) 16:51, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

@Khatijajaffer: Ok. Now that Zefr has explained why they reverted your edit, I agree with them. Also, you could add to the paragraph about the Quran that is already there. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 16:58, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

23:08:29, 7 December 2017 review of submission by Lloan

• Lloan (talk · contribs)
  • Draft:Fit Body Boot Camp (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

I have reworked the article, included sources from different news sites and removed anything that sounds subjective. I removed anything that looked like promotional text. Hopefully this is better suited for Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lloan (talk • contribs) 23:08, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

@Lloan: There are still some problems. First off, there are still a lot of unreliable sources, specifically press releases. Second off, there are still some things that aren't very neutral, but this time, it is whole sentences. For example, "The main goal of each session is to burn calories and foster a team environment where each session is both fun and effective", isn't very neutral. Finally, you should not source things like charity work to the subject itself. If they are not mentioned by independent sources, remove them, and if so, cite those sources. Hope that helps. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 22:09, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, I deleted a few sections (mostly what I did) - removed a few sections that you mentioned too. I really appreciate you taking the time to make sure this meets Wiki's standards by the way. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lloan (talk • contribs) 03:41, 10 December 2017 (UTC)

@RileyBugz: Also removed sources that may seem like press releases, some content I can't find appropriate sources for and reworded a few things as well. Not sure what else I can do, but any input you can give me is welcomed. Thanks.

@Lloan: To be honest, the company just doesn't seem to be notable. This basically means that there will probably not be an article until more articles on the company are released and found. You can work on something else in the meantime; I suggest birds, but I love birds, so I might be biased. :) RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 12:11, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

@RileyBugz: I see. Just out of curiosity, are the sources I used like 'inc. magazine', 'Fox6Now', 'Fox17', 'wzzm13', 'kdlt', 'entrepreneur' - are any of those suitable? I suppose that's what has me confused the most. This company has appeared on the news all over the place, so I think I'm just really confused, lol. I don't know about birds, but my wife has almost 10 that don't let me sleep, they're always singing. Thanks for your time RileyBugz!

@Lloan: Ahh... I don't have any; I like to just watch how they behave. Anyways, I don't really regard Fox News as a reliable source (and most on the site agree with me on this point). But, you might be able to get it through if you add another source of the quality of the WZZM and KDLT, then you should be good. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 23:08, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

@RileyBugz: Thanks for pointing those out. Very much appreciated. I managed to find a couple more, ranging from WTOL, WDBJ7, WJLA, Globalnews, WSLS and UTV44. I've added those sources for specific sections: individual location challenges, modified workouts based on fitness level, battle ropes, schedule variations by location, type of workouts, etc. Hopefully these are good enough sources! Then I can move along and start writing about birds! Lol.

Please re-review when you have time. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lloan (talk • contribs) 18:11, 14 December 2017 (UTC)

Almost there... you now have to remove the things that are not sourced to independent sources. The only acceptable use of the company website (at least as I see it) is to establish the name of the company. But, since that doesn't seem to be a problem, that source should be removed, as should the press releases (including what they cite, of course). RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 12:02, 15 December 2017 (UTC)

@RileyBugz: I removed external links to Fit Body sites, removed more sources, but the only sources I'm not sure about are Entrepreneur and Inc, 5000. Thank you, let me know if I missed anything. I've learned quite a bit through this process. Specifically researching for sources. Thanks!

Oh, sorry for the late reply. I don't really know about the two sources you mentioned. I'd say they're probably ok, though. Now you need to do a bit of cleanup. You should probably remove some unneeded information, though. For example, one doesn't really need to know what they don't provide (see the second-to-last sentence in franchising). Also, one doesn't need to know when the locations are open. Finally, you need to remove everything that isn't cited by a source. Hopefully that helps. Good luck! RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 21:03, 21 December 2017 (UTC)

@RileyBugz: Thanks. I removed the content as suggested. Let me know if this is better or what else I can do to get this approved. Happy Holidays!

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello RileyBugz, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

• The new page backlog is currently at 12713 pages. Please consider reviewing even just a few pages each day! If everyone helps out, it will really put a dent in the backlog.
• Currently the backlog stretches back to March and some pages in the backlog have passed the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing some of them!

Outreach and Invitations:

• If you know other editors with a good understanding of Wikipedia policy, invite them to join NPP by dropping the invitation template on their talk page with: {{subst:NPR invite}}. Adding more qualified reviewers will help with keeping the backlog manageable.

New Year New Page Review Drive

• A backlog drive is planned for the start of the year, beginning on January 1st and running until the end of the month. Unique prizes will be given in tiers for both the total number of reviews made, as well as the longest 'streak' maintained.
• Note: quality reviewing is extremely important, please do not sacrifice quality for quantity.

General project update:

• ACTRIAL has resulted in a significant increase in the quality of new submissions, with noticeably fewer CSD, PROD, and BLPPROD candidates in the new page feed. However, the majority of the backlog still dates back to before ACTRIAL started, so consider reviewing articles from the middle or back of the backlog.
• The NPP Browser can help you quickly find articles with topics that you prefer to review from within the backlog.
• To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.

Hi RileyBugz, I've updated the draft and taken some advice from a user in the live help chatroom to remove a potentially problematic section/source. Could you please re-review and let me know what you think/suggest additional changes? Thank you

@Golden tamarin: Hello! It seems that all of the sources are either press releases or don't mention the company, except the fourth citation. This means that you have to find new sources; remember, use reliable sources independent from the company. This excludes write-ups because of financial compensation, and excludes things written by the CEO. Hopefully that helps. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 12:08, 13 December 2017 (UTC)

RileyBugz, I had to cut a good amount of the info, but also found a few additional news sources. I re-sourced it all, and will keep an eye out for additional news articles so I can expand the page in the future! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Golden tamarin (talk • contribs) 16:18, 18 December 2017 (UTC)

@Golden tamarin: A bit better, but there is only one reliable source: the TechCrunch article. The first citation doesn't help at all because it only mentions it once, and doesn't even dedicate a full sentence to it. This is the same for the second citation. The third citation is of dubious reliability, and the fourth is just a routine announcement. This doesn't mean that you can't use them all as sources; the first, second, and fourth citation don't need to be removed. But, you need to use more of those independent reliable sources. If you can find one or two more, you should be almost good to go. RileyBugz^会話_投稿記録 21:08, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord."
