G12 Unambiguous copyright infringement

This article was erased due to a false copyright infringement http://en.wikipedia.org/Dogo_Sardesco

sources about the Dogo Sardesco found in many forums and websites were copied by the article of wikepedia started years ago and wrongly erased due to the absence of references and bibliography months ago. I wrote again the same article (cancelled months ago) adding bibliography and external sources, because i'm not able to restore cancelled articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.39.118.133 (talk) 03:33, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages:Requests for permissions/Header

Just curious: can you please point me to the discussion where consensus was reached to reduce the threshold for Autopatrolled from 50 to 30 articles. Thanks. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 04:34, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

I got that update from Misplaced Pages:Autopatrolled where the number was changed from 50 to 30 by our fellow admin Espresso Addict. INeverCry 04:46, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. FWIW, although there is a current discussion at the VP about unbundling Autopatrolled from the Admin toolset, where there is, AFAIK, no discussion with a community consensus for this change. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 05:59, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

The unbundling proposal is a bit strange, and a consensus looks unlikely. I won't worry too much about it though; I was autopatrolled long before my RFA. As for the drop to 30 articles, I can agree with that. If you can write 30 decent articles, the next 20 will probably be ok too. INeverCry 15:50, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

I'm not worried about having or losing the 'right' which is only of true interest for the hat collectors because it does not give editors any personal advantages at all. As one of the most active admins at PERM however, who checks all of an applicant's creations, I feel that a lowering of the bar may not be entirely appropriate. My main concern however is that it appears that this the decision to change the threshold - unless I am mistaken - to have been made without any formal discussion and consensus. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 23:06, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

I think the autopatrolled right has more benefits than giving an editor any kind of vanity hat status or even lightening the patroller load. Other less-experienced users who need help or advice on writing an article might prefer to look to someone who's autopatrolled, or might give more weight to their comments in a discussion about an article. For admins like us, the fact that we qualify to be autopatrolled probably lends a certain ammount of credibility to any content-related log actions we perform, seeing that it signifies a certain level of content creation experience.

In regard to the lower number of articles idea, we have some editors who may not be up to 50 articles, but who'd probably be a safe bet as autopatrolled; folks like User:Harrison49 or User:Richerman and others. I certainly agree that consensus for any kind of change in the article creation # requirement is needed though. INeverCry 01:29, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

I will certainly admit to having accorded Autopatrolled to users who have slightly less than the recommended 50 creations. In such cases, the articles were flawless, but IMHO and based on my experience of having accorded or rejected 100s of applications at PERM, and having patrolled literally tens of thousands of new articles over the years, I consider 50 to be a safe guideline. The new NPP interface accords the opportunity for patrollers to provide the creators with tidbits of useful help and information. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 02:48, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Why keep one page while you delete the other

I see you deleted SP:BR. If you deleted that, why is SP:AF still redirecting to Special:AbuseFilter? Shouldn't you delete that? Or "un-delete" SP:BR? 15:55, 12 May 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Infinity to the power of infinity (talk • contribs)

That may have been a mistake on my part. The page was created by a sockpuppet though, so I've asked a fellow admin for advice on what needs to be done. INeverCry 16:21, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Update: I've re-created it. INeverCry 20:31, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Confirmation on "Nino Micozzi" Submission

Hi again.. I was just wondering if the following article previously deleted "http://en.wikipedia.org/User:Alex-bellux/Nino_Micozzi" would be ready to be submitted to be a Misplaced Pages article. It has been a work in progress for a little over a month and I finished editing it (for now). But I am afraid it still does not fulfill all Misplaced Pages standards. Thanks in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alex-bellux (talk • contribs) 18:39, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

One concern I can see at the moment is the need for inline citations. Aside from that, the sources still seem quite local, and may not be enough to establish WP:N. Coverage in national sources would be better, if they exist (Boston Globe, Wallstreet Journal, Forbes, etc). INeverCry 20:12, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

I searched on Boston Globe and for "Micozzi" I had a redirect to Boston.com which is by far one of the few "bostonian" sites to cite his name aside from GlobeSt.com which is a real-estate based site. Micozzi's holdings are mostly private, but they are however mentioned in Newton Public Records which does not disclose its archives online. Since his business is only based in New England, they occasionally talk about him in the local news. Moreover, he's generally not very known unless of course someone types it in Google and finds the Misplaced Pages article. Thanks.

Rollback

Hi! I just put in a request for rollback. Earlier my request was denied because I was not eligible for it, after lots of hard work reverting vandalism and patrolling new pages, I think I am up for the task, I am almost at the thousand edit mark. Am I eligible or not? If you can you may decline or accept my request on the page with the requests for rollback, but remember to check my progress :) Thanks. PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 22:47, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

• (talk page stalker) Looking at stuff like Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Flatbush zombies, and you asking for rollback in mutliple places . I also saw Misplaced Pages:Sockpuppet investigations/WorthWert where you asked for a Checkuser on an IP, which isn't done, and a less than great record with CSD User:PBASH607/CSD log (trying to CSD List of Oldest Breweries of Canada is almost criminal ;). These are innocent enough mistakes, the kind new users make, but it does make me wonder how familiar you are, and how easy it will be to get in trouble with rollback. But, this isn't my page and you didn't ask me, I'm just butting in... Dennis Brown - 2¢ - © - @ - Join WER 23:37, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Well true, anyways thanks for telling me now, I asked for rollback with a user I knew earlier, he helped me so I asked him and the admin for help, and I put Flatbush zombies for nomination rather than CSD, because some users see it as a potential article, the breweries article, was only one sentence long when I saw it, and out of the 54 articles I nominated, 41 were deleted, thats a decent record, anyways thank you for your opinion on me :) PBASH607 (The One Day Apocalypse) (talk) 23:52, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Your vote at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/The Motherfucking Browns was concerning to me, as we have to base our actions here on policy rather than personal feeling. The last week or so of posts on your talk aren't the best recommendation either. That and the opinion of Dennis above would swing me towards declining the request. But I don't quite feel neutral since you asked me specifically, so I'll let another admin make the final decision on this one. INeverCry 01:56, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

• And I don't have a bad opinion of you, you seem like a nice enough fellow. I worry about giving someone rollback if they aren't familiar enough with policy mainly because using it improperly can get you stripped of that right, or even blocked if you abuse it. It is a tool, but like a knife, it can cut the hand of the person holding it just as easily as what you are pointing it at. My concerns shouldn't be seen as a judgement on you as a person, I'm just worried you might not be sufficiently experienced. That is easy to cure, it just takes a little time and practice.

deletion of sandbox / information about DeSScipher on wikipedia

Dear INeverCry,

Our page about the project DeSScipher was deleted because of unambiguous copyright infringement.

18:11, 20 April 2013 INeverCry (talk | contribs) deleted page User:Novor/sandbox (G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement of http://www.uni-giessen.de/cms/fbz/fb11/institute/klinik/rheumatologie/desscipher-en/about-desscipher/about-the-desscipher-project/about-desscipher/view?set_language=en)

However, I am also the administrator of desscipher.eu. A link was added in the article. This is a link to the webpage you have identified as copyright infringement of. Can you please help us, how we can report about our project in accordance with the[REDACTED] rules? Can the sandbox be recovered? Thanks for your help in advance, kind regards Novor (talk) 05:46, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

Tagfry

Hi. This is regarding the deletion of page titled Tagfry. It was nominated for deletion by you considering article A7 into account. However, I would like to bring into notice that pages of other similar websites like Pinterest are still existing on wikipedia. In addition to that, my article was to make people aware of an important website which will help them in increasing their knowledge and keeping up to date. Requesting you to please look into this matter and guide me with best possible solution. Thank You. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swarnkar.wiki (talk • contribs) 06:34, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

In order to have this article on Misplaced Pages, you have to show WP:N using WP:RS, of which there were none in this deleted article. INeverCry 23:23, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

SP:BR listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect SP:BR. Since you had some involvement with the SP:BR redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion (if you have not already done so). — This, that and the other (talk) 08:07, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

Parag Parikh

Hello! I see you just recently deleted Parag Parikh. I just posted a note on the talk page of the person who nominated it here: User_talk:MohitSingh#Parag_Parikh and figured it'd be pertinent to give you the same message (though it may be too late for that now). Either way, thanks for all your hard work. :) --Pusillanimous (talk•contribs) 21:46, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

userification please

You speedy deleted Bashir Ahmed.

I didn't see the speedy nomination until after you deleted it.

I request userification.

I had a very persisten wikistalker, probably the wikipedia's most persistent wikistalker ever, who routinely gutted articles I started. In the two years prior to their final indefinite block over 80 percent of this contributor's edit were either to material I contributed or were about material I contributed. So, it is quite possible the article once satisfied A7 -- prior to their extreme and counter-policy disruptive editing.
