Your block of IP 2A00:23C6:4090:D701:9153:7364:4C0C:9FA9

Just FYI, I changed this block from indefinite to one year, because we don't indef IPs. Let me know if you disagree. -- Auntof6 (talk) 11:20, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

Reminder

I have notified you about this many times over years now, but please remember to close RfDs where you have deleted the page, such as on Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Iwasawa theory. The details of how to close RfDs are at User talk:Macdonald-ross/Archive 29#Deleting pages at RfD, if you do not know how. Also, the criteria in the deletion policy (and on the deletion dropdown) are the only reasons we should be deleting articles - you should not be overriding consensus by deleting them for your own reasons. --Ferien (talk) 14:23, 11 February 2024 (UTC)

Peer review?

Hello, can you take a look at Biological interaction when you get some time? I have the impression it is still a little on the complex side of things. Thank you Eptalon (talk) 16:50, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

I think the main problem is that the original, whilst much longer, is more specific. I had a look at it earlier and decided it would not be good if simplified, yet without that it would not be good for our wiki. I mean, from one perspective all living things engage in interactions... It doesn't follow that it makes good teaching. Anyway, I decided not to do a version for us. It was brave of you to try! Macdonald-ross (talk) 17:26, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Interesting IP

So that page you just deleted if you go to the ip address of the creator you get a Linux/UNIX not found page which means it’s a server (possibly a proxy too). Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 12:15, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Archive

Hey I found a duplicate part of the archive code with a nowiki wrapper randomly on your page and I removed it for you. It won’t have any effect on the archive process. Did the process break on you? I’m pretty sure it’s because the topic “Words” is not dated so that will halt the archiving from taking place. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 12:51, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

Reverted your change

Hey on ST I reverted your change back to the original. Proposal is way to generic and this is a media wiki extension so I feel it makes more sense to leave it as is so when it’s seen again we can reference it. I don’t typically revert an admin as you know (and all others) but I strongly feel that wasn’t necessary. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 14:51, 24 February 2024 (UTC)

How To Train Your Dragon

Heya Mac, you deleted the article under non-notable. It actually is as it is part of the entire franchise. See en:How_to_Train_Your_Dragon#Literature. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:09, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

Séverine Keimig Article

I noticed that you deleted the page for Séverine Keimig that I submitted without any reason provided. I also noticed that none of the citation links were working because I copy pasted them incorrectly. Is this why it got deleted? I am pretty sure you were not able to verify any of the citations and if so I would like to resubmit. Is there way you can restore it into draft mode so I can fix citations? Plus I have also found some more citations. Grrnpokes (talk) 07:14, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Grrnpokes The person you wrote about Séverine Keimig is not notable. A WP:BEFORE search shows nothing except her personal websites and social media accounts. Please see WP:Notability to see what is needed for inclusion in simple Wikipedia. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 08:20, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

There were over a dozen citations, but unfortunately due to coding error on my part, none were working, so nobody could have actually checked her notability. Is it possible to restore it into drafts so I can add the citations for another review?

(talk page stalker) @Grrnpokes It doesn’t require the use of your links to look up people. We use various ways to look up people and nothing showed notability for this person. All it brought up was that she is a model and that is not enough to establish notability. Models do not qualify in any way as notable. There has to be a lot more about them in numerous sources and they have to meet the requirements (as I stated before in looking at WP:Notability). Tyra Banks started as a model and was not notable until other actions she performed brought her to that status. Please do not assume we do not check for these things before we nominate an article for deletion because we do, as do administrators before it is deleted. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 11:58, 9 March 2024 (UTC)

Article

I noticed the deletion of PianobyG. I am requesting it to be unblocked and I will rewrite it without copying from wiki. I apologize, I assumed because it was under the same umbrella, it would be okay. My apologies Davidnorco86 (talk) 18:37, 14 March 2024 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Davidnorco86 As the nominator, this individual absolutely fails WP:Notability. It is highly unlikely they will anytime in the near future, as our requirements are quite high. Before nominations, we do a WP:BEFORE and if they do not meet the requirements, they get deleted. Re-creation will result in the same thing until they become notable.

Deleted a Wikipedia Page without any reason

You have deleted a page named Prof. Dr. Muhammad Ali without any proper reason. I have added a prompt in the article and comment in a talk. But you have deleted a page. Harrybills (talk) 20:58, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Harrybills An admin has the right to delete a page without warning or waiting. A search was done and the only links coming up were social media accounts. Just being a scholar does not qualify one to be on the wiki. See WP:Notability for the criteria. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:14, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

I am writing to request a review of the decision to delete the page associated with Prof. Dr. Muhammad Ali. Page is referenced by seven reputable news & official websites, indicating its significance and authenticity. Additionally, it is linked to the only LinkedIn account of Prof. Dr. Muhammad Ali, further underscoring its importance. If you demand I will send you links of websites. Harrybills (talk) 21:26, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Harrybills Again, the search was already completed. This individual does not meet our requirements of being included in Wikipedia. We do not need the sources you used as we do our own searches. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:34, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

I'm interested in contributing to Wikipedia, but I'm facing challenges with page deletions where no clear explanation is provided. However, I'm unsure about the criteria for notability and the reasons for page deletion when the content is not promotional. Can you provide some guidance on what makes a person notable for Wikipedia and suggest a notable individual who doesn't currently have a Wikipedia page, so I can create one? Harrybills (talk) 21:40, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Harrybills I included above the guidelines WP:Notability. This is just one of the things we look at. As far as who doesn’t have one, that would be up to you to look as we do not maintain a list. I will advise you though that should they not be notable they will be quick deleted. As far as page deletions where no clear explanation is provided it is on the QD notice on the page and you get a talk page notice about why as well. Before you create an article in the main space you can create it in your own user space so it doesn’t get tagged. Put at the top {{in use}} which tells other editors you are working on it. However, if it stays there too long it will be deleted. You’ll get a notification about it first. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:47, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Ok Thanks. Harrybills (talk) 21:59, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Kindly explain it more "Before you create an article in the main space you can create it in your own user space so it doesn’t get tagged. Put at the top {{in use} which tells other editors you are working on it. However, if it stays there too long it will be deleted. You’ll get a notification about it first." Harrybills (talk) 22:02, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Harrybills I will move this to your talk page. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 22:06, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

U1 articles

Hello, you appear to have deleted a couple articles under U1, specifically, Mika Brzezinski, Bert, and Your Name. Can you undelete them? Thanks, Justarandomamerican (t • c) 21:11, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Justarandomamerican Sorry about that we had an edit conflict and I was about to paste your comment back on but you beat me to it. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:16, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

@Macdonald-ross FYI a vandal was tagging pages as U1 but they weren’t. @Justarandomamerican you can also request this on the WP:AN board as well. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 21:18, 15 March 2024 (UTC)

Done. Macdonald-ross (talk) 06:51, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, Mac! Justarandomamerican (t • c) 17:04, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Please undelete Kavya Kishor (magazine)

Kavya Kishor, a notable magazine. It is largest Bengali language magazine after Anannya magazine. It claims to Notability here. I think you should undelete it. Sylheti Puaa (talk) 07:18, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

It's not on En wiki, which suggests my assessment is correct. Macdonald-ross (talk) 07:27, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) @Sylheti Puaa The magazine is not notable nor can it be used for any citations. It’s a Creative Commons magazine and has no sign of WP:Notability. A WP:BEFORE shows nothing but social media. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:29, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

@Sylheti Puaa Also stop going to other users talk pages asking for it to be undeleted. That is called WP:Canvassing and is frowned upon and can get you blocked here. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:33, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

It was WP:BEFORE, but now it is notable to stay here. You can see 1, 2, 3, 4, however, it is a largest magazine of literature in Bangladesh after Anannya magazine. Sylheti Puaa (talk) 07:33, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

WP:Canvassing I was Unknown about it, sorry. I just want to contribute here. Sylheti Puaa (talk) 07:36, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

@Sylheti Puaa The links you provided show nothing of notability from what I was able to translate. They simply talked about the magazine and that it is recognized by other wiki’s which are not affiliated with is. We have higher standards. I recommend you find something else to write on. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:43, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

thanks, some Notability is not bordered with Links. This magazine is notable in Bengali literature. Sylheti Puaa (talk) 07:53, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Archiving

Hey Mac, you ok if I get your page to start archiving again? Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:35, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Yes OK! Macdonald-ross (talk) 07:40, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

I couldn’t move things over to your main page because of its protection but you have User:Macdonald-ross/Transfer. It should run tomorrow (today) and chop this down for you. If it stops, it will be due to no date on the comment or post. You can copy that page to your main page if you’d like or rename it. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 07:53, 16 March 2024 (UTC)

Hey Mac - So I manually archived everything (everything was handled anyways). I also reset your archive settings (same parameters you had) based on mine. It should work going forward now. I’ll check in a few weeks from now and see. If you need anything else, let me know. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 08:14, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Archive works

Hey Mac — So my test worked. I adjusted it back to archive 7 days after the last comment and only if there are more than 4 threads left (your old settings). Do not add anything above the mizabot config or you will break it. I’m going to place the other items back on that you had. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks - PDL^{Talk to me!}_{Please don't eat da 🐑!} 05:09, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
