Vandalism

Just so you know, the false defamatory statements I made on Daniel Kahl's page were not false defamatory statements about Daniel Kahl. If you wish to know why I vandalized the page, please read further. I have a friend named Daniel Krol, and he and I like to insult each other as a joke. I just used Daniel Kahl's article to make false defamatory statements about Daniel Krol because I knew that if I tried creating an article about Daniel Krol, it would never get approved with its obvious false defamatory content and would never be on wikipedia, so I thought it would be better to use another article to write about Daniel Krol. I apologize for abusing the power to edit, even though I always find abusing such power to be rather amusing. If vandalism has consequences that I am not aware of, please make me aware. Sincerely, Mcleod Allen Mueller-Hill — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:C541:CC60:5C8D:9AA2:A1FD:64DB (talk) 06:24, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi Mcleod - thanks for the message. That's nice and all, but think about it: you're vandalizing an encyclopedia that millions of users (which most likely includes you) use as a daily source of information, and because of that, you're damaging the work that's been done and wasting the time of the many who are trying to improve it, me included. It's not easy helping an encyclopedia, especially when it's getting hit by vandalism on a minutely basis. If you'd like to know of any other consequences, just know that the biggest one is damaging a site that millions come to for information. I seriously suggest you look to more constructive things to pass your time with, especially if your idea of amusement is silly edits to an encyclopedia. Trust me, they'll get reverted anyway. I do appreciate your second thoughts and apology. Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 06:37, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Dear Super Hamster, I would like to thank you for your polite and quick response to my message. It's true, I do frequently use your encyclopedia as a source of information, especially when I'm looking for plots of fictional media. Just so you know, I spend plenty of time doing stuff besides wiki vandalism. I spent most of today reading a Sherlock Holmes novel by Arthur Conan Doyle.

Luxo Jr. revert

When a film is long enough that seconds are a imperceptible percentage of its running time, I agree with you. When a film is short enough that seconds are a noticeable percentage of its run time, I don't. - Denimadept (talk) 16:55, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

@Denimadept: Sure - I don't have a preference between 00:02:12 or 2 minutes or 2 minutes 12 seconds, take your pick. I've seen all three used on short-film articles. All I'm saying is that 2:12 by itself isn't clear, which is why I reverted Niamh's edit. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 16:59, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

...thought I do suggest "2 minutes 12 seconds" more than anything, if mentioning seconds is vital. It seems standard to spell out minutes for movies < an hour. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:04, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

That's a good compromise, given the links you left in the revert comment. Thanks. - Denimadept (talk) 17:08, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Sounds good, thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:12, 2 July 2014 (UTC)

Reverted Conservapedia edit

Hi, I saw you reverted my edit on Conservapedia, saying it was slanderous and that the sources weren't reliable. One was a primary source, and the other was a secondary source. While I have been a victim of this over the years, I was not intending any bad faith statements towards Conservapedia, just stating cited facts. I don't really care about the revert, but I do care about your allegations of slander. Why? -bleak_fire_ (talk) 02:33, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

@Bleakfire: Huh, very amusing. Not in the slightest did I even imply slander, which ironically makes your accusations false. Here is my edit summary:

Reverted good faith edits by Bleakfire (talk): Sources provided are not reliable and the analysis is original research. (TW)

I'm curious as how you derived slander from that; I'd like to emphasize the part about good faith. I'm well aware of Conservapedia's history, and as far as I know, what you added to the article was indeed factually correct. But any analysis dervied from the Conservapedia leaks is original research, and RationalWiki itself isn't a reliable source, being both a very biased source and a wiki (which are generally regarded as not acceptable). The content you added to the article needs to be covered and attributed to a reliable source, especially considering the good article status of the article. These are issues that have been hit on several times in the past on article's talk page. Let me know if you need any more explanation or still think your edit fits. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 02:57, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

You said my edits were done in bad faith, doesn't that imply slander? -bleak_fire_ (talk) 03:47, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

So you said I was acting in good faith? I thought you were saying I was violating Wikipedia's rules on good faith. -bleak_fire_ (talk) 03:49, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Ah, I see where you got confused - yep, I was saying you were acting in good faith. I "Reverted good faith edits by Bleakfire", and then provided my rational for the reversion. Apologies if that wasn't clear. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 03:52, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

OK good, sorry about that. I was a little disappointed when I was an unfortunate victim of the blocks (despite being repeatedly told they had unblocked me), but I don't want the wrong people to see something and misinterpret it, when it comes to the Internet you never know who'll stab you in the back this week. -bleak_fire_ (talk) 03:58, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Heh, sure, no problem - definitely understandable. Luckily most people here aren't looking to stab ;) Cheers, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 04:00, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

02:53:41, 7 July 2014 review of submission by Lorenzo Guzman

  • User:Lorenzo Guzman/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi, good day to you. Thank you for your fast review on the article that I've submitted. Few questions that I need to ask: first the article talks about "The Green Book" thus, information regarding the said company is the main focus, it might sound to be like an advertisement but it is not. All information written was to introduce The Green Book, its description, history, business and the like. Second, is it because there are few external references used? Please advise on what to do best without modifying majority of the content because that is the way I wanted the reader to learn about The Green Book.

Thank you and best regards. Lorenzo Guzman (talk) 02:53, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

@Lorenzo Guzman: Hey there, thanks for reaching out. Are you associated with The Green Book by chance? If so, you'd have a conflict of interest with the subject, which might be why what you wrote doesn't seem promotional - though it is. Unsubstantiated statements such as "it constantly met and satisfied the procurement needs of wide range of industries and interests" and "The Green Book has become a trusted name for establishing business contacts" are wholly promotional. Statements like these need to be sourced, and/or attributed to the origin. For example, according to whom is The Green Book a trusted name? Is this a widely-held view, or the view of single entity? A lot of the page needs to be re-written and better sourced to be encyclopedic.

Looking at the sources provided, it also looks like the majority of them come from The Green Book itself, or a directory listing. Statements on Wikipedia need to be sourced to independent and reliable sources that verify information within the article, preferably through in-line citations. These sources are also needed to prove the subject's notability, which is the measure of an article's noteworthiness based on its coverage in independent and reliable sources. Only subjects that have received significant coverage should have their own articles.

I know this is a lot to hit you with, but feel free to ask for any clarifications. I've also left a welcome message on your talk page with useful links that you might find helpful. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 03:52, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi there,
We are requesting re-review as the article is a description of Huawei new eLTE technology (enterprise LTE). This new technology has many characteristics which are unique to Huawei company. Please see the details in the article. The first deployment has been made in Madagascar country, and to be deployed in other African countries soon.

Kindly help review and comment. Thanks.

John Stroject (talk) 13:34, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

@John Stroject: Hi John! I've re-reviewed your draft. In addition to what is written in the red box, I've added an additional comment below that (right before the start of the article) that elaborates on my review and provides a few suggestions. Feel free to ask any questions.

Also, quick question for you: did you take the pictures you uploaded for the draft? If not, do you hold the copyrights to the photos? They appear to be from various other sources (such as this one), which there may be a copyright issues with. Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:02, 7 July 2014 (UTC)

14:44:15, 8 July 2014 response by John Stroject

Hi there ~SuperHamster ,
Thank you very much by all your valuable inputs. Actually, John is a colleague of mine and he is handling the communication part of all our events. I am Project Manager at Huawei Technologies Madagascar, and my name is Jaypaul ([email redacted]). You can see 1 of my pictures in the article and also in the URL you mentioned above.
Note: all pictures have been taken by our own photographer and the ones you see in the above URL have been taken by Minister's photographer.
As the first Huawei office to have deployed 4G eLTE in Sub-Sahara region, we feel important to communicate this through Wikipedia (very popular informative website in here). As per your recommendations and also as Huawei employee, we want to talk mainly about this 4G eLTE technology. Examples of deployment in Europe have already been covered by other colleagues, but this one where National Police changed their network name to 4G eLTE is the first one to exist in this region.
I believe this is more of an encyclopedic article rather than normal news broadcast, due to eLTE being proprietary to Huawei Technologies. John will input more independent references today, and he will refine the article as well. We will surely need your help to advise for any changes to be made.
Grateful if you could help us out with this publication buddy.
Thank you very much for all your good inputs.

• Nova1021 (talk · contribs)
  • Draft:Thank You A Lot (film) (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Sorry for any confusion, but I realize now that I didn't include enough information in my previous post. I am a representative of the filmmakers behind the film Thank You A Lot (Clearing a Comma, LLC). At their request, I submitted the press packet (containing the content in question, which they created) to permissions-en@wikimedia.org on July 2nd to be published under Creative Commons Attribution. From the information provided to me on wikipedia, it is my understanding that there is no copyright violation. Please correct me if I am mistaken. Thanks!--Nova1021 (talk) 01:34, 8 July 2014 (UTC) Nova1021 (talk) 01:34, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

@Nova1021: Hey there, sorry for missing your original reply on the draft's talk page! Thanks for the clarification.

Most of the time, it's far easier and quicker to write article content from scratch (and I'd normally suggest you do so). However, since an OTRS ticket has already been submitted for this, we can run along with it. This is the first time I'm going through this process, so bear with me :)

The way the OTRS process works is that once permission is received via email (which hopefully contained a mention of the article the content would be used in), an OTRS volunteer confirms it and tags the page with the ticket number corresponding to the email. Since an OTRS volunteer hasn't done anything with the draft yet, I recommend doing the following:

• Place {{OTRS pending}} on the draft's talk page. This will attract the attention of an OTRS volunteer, who will then check to see if the proper permission has been granted via email. Since you state that you sent the email instead of what I presume is the actual copyright holder, I'm not sure if that's adequate, but we'll see.
• If the email is found but there's a problem with it, the OTRS volunteer will replace the tag with Template:OTRS received. Otherwise, if everything is fine, the volunteer will mark the talk page with a ticket number and we'll be good to go.
• At this point, if not done already by the OTRS volunteer, you can place Template:ArticleOTRS at the top of the 'References' section, providing both the source and the OTRS ticket number. This properly attributes the text.
• I'd also add a footnote to the end of the synopsis, stating its source. This will avoid plagiarism issues and makes clear what exactly was taken from the press packet.

Let me know if you have any questions! Hopefully what I wrote isn't too convoluted. Once this is taken care of, I'd be happy to re-review the article, which looks pretty good to go from a quick glance! Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 04:45, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

@SuperHamster:Thank you so much for all of your help. I decided to rewrite the synopsis and have resubmitted the article.--Nova1021 (talk) 16:25, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

@Nova1021: No problem - definitely the easier option, thanks. I've gone ahead and accepted the article, well done! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 16:41, 8 July 2014 (UTC)

Rollback & admin rights

Hi SuperHamster, do you have rollback or administrator rights on Wikipedia because the vandal edits are undone by you reverted them. Aside that I revert some vandal edits what they did vandalized an article I undid them. --Allen ^talk 19:12, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi @AllenHAcNguyen: I do indeed have the rollback tool, though that is certainly not required to undo vandalism. Could you please elaborate on the particular edit or editor who is vandalizing? I'm not really sure what you're referring to right now. Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:16, 22 July 2014 (UTC)

Exide Life Insurance

@SuperHamster Thank you for the correction of page [[1]]. Can you please help me to understand how I can make this article better? Any specific feedback on which part of content you found 'promotional' in the one that I submitted before? My team here has researched a lot and took reference from other similar pages such as [[2]] It would be great if you could provide your valuable suggestions regarding this. Thanks again! Ashita Vishnu (talk) 08:24, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi @Ashita Vishnu: Thanks for reaching out! A few notes about why I reverted your edits:

• The content, while not an exact copy-and-paste from an official company press release, was closely paraphrased. Taking content and only switching a few words around isn't adequate. Content should be written entirely in your own words, summarizing a variety of sources.
• The content wasn't sourced. Of course, the content you did add did come from the press release - but this should be referenced in the article. Help:Footnotes provides some help on how to add citations to an article. Material from the company (such as a press release) is indeed acceptable for information about the company itself (such as number of employees, history, areas served, etc.), but should be used limitedly, as independent sources are preferred. See WP:SELFSOURCE for more info.
• As for the content being promotional, I marked it as such since it's directly taken from the company's press release, with no sourcing and unsubstantiated statements. Wikipedia also does not typically link to all the social networking profiles of a company (see WP:ELMINOFFICIAL).

Since you appear to have a conflict of interest with the subject, I strongly advise you to not edit the article directly. Instead, any additions you want to make should be provided on the article's talk page, and tagged with {{request edit}} to let editors know of your request. This way, another editor can review the request for sources, copyright problems, etc. Thanks, and let me know if you have any more questions! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 15:02, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Your review of my article on the EIGCA

Thank you for reviewing my article on the European Institute of Golf Course Architects (EIGCA). I understand that you cannot add copyrighted material to Wikipedia, but in this instance I am acting on behalf of the copyright holder - the Institute itself. We wanted to have an article on Wikipedia to as there wasn't one already. Is there any way round this or must I re-write the article?

Eigca (talk) 09:56, 30 July 2014

Hi @Eigca: Thanks for asking! Technically, you can directly copy-and-paste a company's content, with attribution, only once it's explicitly released under a license compatible with Wikipedia (which essentially means that anyone can use the content, for any reason, including commercially). See WP:DONATETEXT for more information about how the company can go about releasing its text under such a license.

Now, I don't recommend doing that. The first issue is that the content you copied is promotional in tone, and won't be acceptable on Wikipedia either way. Second, content on Wikipedia should be attributed to a variety of reliable and independent sources, which helps establish notability - or the significance of a subject based on its coverage in the media (news articles, interviews, books, etc.).

What should be done is looking into a variety of sources covering the institute and its history history, and writing the article in your own words as a compilation of information from these sources. The company's profile can indeed be used as a limited source for information about itself (see WP:SELFSOURCE), but a variety of third-party sources should also be used. Otherwise, the article will be rejected for lacking reliable sources and appearing non-notable. I know this is a lot to hit you with, so let me know if you have any more questions. Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 15:21, 30 July 2014 (UTC)

Re: Deletion

Deleting the /GA1 page simply opens up the page for another reviewer to review. You don't have to re-nominate, the article is still a GA nominee. Noms themselves aren't deleted; if it takes six months it'll still be on the page. Wizardman 11:33, 20 August 2014 (UTC)

Which one?

When you say "constructive and unconstructive elements," are you referring to Olive The Ostrich, or Zerby Derby? - CharlieBrown25 (talk) 03:20, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

@CharlieBrown25: For unconstructive edits, I was referring to Olive The Ostrich. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 04:32, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Zerby Derby Canadian?

Exactly what are the sources that tell you this is Canadian? - CharlieBrown25 (talk) 04:13, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

The show is produced by Breakthrough Entertainment through TVOKids, which are Canadian. That's what I was going off of, anyway. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 04:36, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

How to cite?

I tried using the cite template, but it asked for my first and last name, which I don't want to specify. I put a link to a website on the bottom of the page instead, does that count? - CharlieBrown25 (talk) 04:52, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

@CharlieBrown25: That template is actually asking for the name of the author of the page you are citing, not you :) Not all fields have to be filled out, so if an author is not available, you can leave the field blank. I do recommend using the cite template when you can, as it makes references more informative and clean than just a plain URL. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:15, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

Okay, I figured out how to cite Mango Plumo properly. Do you mind removing that tag now? - CharlieBrown25 (talk) 05:37, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

@CharlieBrown25: Looking good! I have replaced the unreferenced tag with a refimprove tag, as the article needs multiple references to verify all content. I'll try to help out with that article if and when I can. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:56, 10 September 2014 (UTC)

That would be greatly appreciated. - CharlieBrown25 (talk) 03:15, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

Explanation of semi-protection

I found your recent help desk post about how to edit semi-protected pages. Your answer is well put, and this question is likely to appear again in the future, so I created Template:Explain semi-protected with your directions given at the help desk. Whether you wish to use it or not, I guess this could be of interest to other volunteers answering questions at the help desk (however I'm unsure about how to make everybody aware of it). Thanks for good guidance! Iceblock (talk) 06:55, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Hey Iceblock - nice job, thanks! I've changed around the parameters a bit so an article is not required; I've also added some basic documentation. I think my answer could still be improved, and it may be worth mentioning the process to request a reduction in protection, but looks good as a start. I'll see if I can help improve this template in the future. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 07:20, 2 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for help at Teahouse re my sandbox. (Couldn't get your name to "ping" at Teahouse so leaving thanks here too). Eagleash (talk) 08:44, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

Oh dear, on clearing the article from my sandbox it blanked the Wiki page completely. (Undid so now reinstated). Maybe I'm wrong in thinking the page is now in article space? Or maybe it needs moving again, which I would not know how to do. Eagleash (talk) 08:56, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

Update; all fine now. Thanks again for help. Eagleash (talk) 14:11, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

@Eagleash: Ah, no problem! Regarding what happened - when you visit your sandbox, because it's a redirect, it will automatically take you to the live article. To go back to your sandbox once the page redirects, you can click on the little link right below the article title (see File:EnWiki redirect - Pichilemo.png for an example; see how it says "Redirected from Pichelemo?). From there you should be able to edit the redirect. Hope that helps! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 16:35, 7 October 2014 (UTC)

Toontown Online page; Your edits to my major ones.

Can you explain why, exactly, you changed all of my work on the Toontown Online page? I know why you took the links off but WHY the whole thing? Epicandrew1220 (talk) 14:32, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi @Epicandrew1220: Thanks for asking. TTR is a third-party site; it really wouldn't be appropriate to have a great portion of the article cover something that is only indirectly related and not particularly significant. What we cover on Wikipedia is based on what independent and reliable sources say on a subject. TTR has very limited coverage, which is why they currently only have a brief mention in the article. Please see the discussions that occurred at Talk:Toontown Online and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Toontown Rewritten regarding this. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:12, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi there - the reason I gave is in the red box at the top:

Great start - however, at the moment, all of the sources provided are links to the official UGet website. Reliable, independent sources are also needed in order to meet the notability requirements for articles.

I recommend taking a look at WP:Notability and WP:Reliable sources for more information on the types of sources needed. Let me know if you need any more clarification or details on anything. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:23, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for Reaching Out

Hi Kevin!

Thanks so much for reaching out. As you can see on my course page (which from what it sounds like you found), I have several students working on creating, updating and changing pages on Columbus Neighborhoods. I'm glad you're as excited as I am about this! Have you been involved with WikiFoundation: Education to make yourself a Campus Ambassador? Are you in the middle/end of that process? I know my students (many of which are your peers) would appreciate any feedback. I also have two other students who have volunteered to "Edit" for our class. I'm not entirely sure how their roles will operate, but your expertise and experience may be useful for them. I let them know you exist!

Also: feel free to keep me posted on things you see, as they come available. I've viewed some of your contributions (and see you're quite active), so anything you can provide would be appreciated. I can be reached at kenitzer.1 or via Talk Page.

Kenitzer.1 (talk) 11:15, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

@Kenitzer.1: That all sounds great to me! Love the idea of expanding Columbus-related articles. I'm basically at the end of the process to be a Campus Ambassador, just waiting for the final approval. In the meantime I wanted to reach out to current instructors ASAP, since it seems to be getting to around the time that students are beginning to work on their entries. I'll be happy to provide any feedback, or assist in any other way you think would be useful, so feel free to contact me at any time (or your students, for that matter). Cheers, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 15:17, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

WP:Co-op

Hey Kevin, this is Jethro, a fellow host at the Teahouse. With a small team, I'm piloting a new mentorship space on Wikipedia called The Co-op. I wanted to ask if you might be interested in mentoring 1 or 2 editors during our pilot in December. The idea is that mentors will be doing one-on-one teaching specific skills based on what an editor wants to do or accomplish, and it's not some huge commitment to teach comprehensively about Wikipedia. If you're interested, please sign up here and we'll keep you posted when we have an actual interface to work with. I'm happy to answer any questions you might have, of course, so let me know if there's anything about the space you'd like to know more about. Much like the Teahouse, the only way we'll know if our project is useful is if we can get folks to help teach. I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} 21:50, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

In particular, your background with files would be very valuable, as many new editors are interested and have trouble walking through the image upload process and relevant considerations about fair use / copyright. I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} 21:53, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Hey @I JethroBT: Sounds good to me! I've signed up - love the concept, so thanks for the invite. Files would definitely be an area I'd be happy to help with. Is there a list of "areas" that mentors can be placed under (or is that coming?)? ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:55, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks! If there are other editors who you think might be interested in volunteering, feel free to pass this message along. There will indeed be a small number of areas, very broadly defined, that we'll layout for mentors so that they can choose what they want to help with. We have one that is broadly dealing with content creation, though we've considered forking image work from other content work as it can be a very complicated topic on its own. What do you think? I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} 22:00, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Very cool, thanks for the info. Definitely looking forward to this. I think image work would be great on its own, as there is a lot to it - though I guess it all ultimately depends on the availability of volunteers. If it hasn't been looked into yet, I'd guess that the regulars at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions would be great additions to help with images. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:04, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Copyright checks when performing AfC reviews

Hello SuperHamster/Archive. 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).

Question re starting article with title in disambiguation page

Hi SuperHamster, thanks for your interesting answer on Talk: bitcoin. I'd love to find out if this surge was a bug. what to do?

I see that you have more wiki-experience than me and hope you can answer a question thats also bugged me: How can one start writing an article, the topic of which is an ambiguation page?

For example, ghost soldier redirects to 2 wikipages Ghost Soldiers and Ghost Army. Is the only way to write a primary topic like ghost soldier by adding a term in parentheses (qualifying the term) like ghost soldier (in general) to distinguish it from the existing disambiguation page? I'd think there should be another way. I read under WP:PRIMARYREDIRECT that you can redirect the disambiguation to the primary topic, after placing it in [Category:Redirects from unnecessary disambiguation] with REDIRECT ghost soldier {{R from unnecessary disambiguation}} but that clearly is a remedy for after the fact. How can one do it right from the start? --Wuerzele (talk) 03:31, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Hey there @Wuerzele: No problem! I'm not sure about the technical details behind the bug, so I'm not sure how it can be technically confirmed, but I'm 99.9% sure the count was a result of the bug - it's not natural for the page to see an increase from 5,000 to 60,0000 views overnight, and then go back down to 5,000 the next day. What was the original theory you had behind it?

Regarding the latter question: Just to avoid future confusion, a redirect is a page that automatically takes you to another page (e.g. bit coin will automatically take you to bitcoin), so I'd avoid using that term in this situation. Anyway, there are two options in this case:

• Make the page w/ a parenthetical description (e.g. ghost soldier (explorer), ghost soldier (car), etc.), to distinguish it from other pages. You can then list that article on the disambiguation page.
• If your topic is the primary usage of the term 'ghost soldier', you can move the current page to Ghost soldier (disambiguation), and then edit ghost soldier to be the article you desire. You would then add a hatnote at the top that leads to the disambiguation page if the topic is not the one the reader is looking for. You can see an example at the very top of Mouse.

Your case is interesting, since the items listed at ghost soldier either don't have articles, or are slight alterations (e.g. ghost soldiers). I think it would be appropriate to go ahead with the latter option - what's your article going to be about? ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 04:05, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

SuperHamster thanks for your quick reply, despite this being busy, valuable college time still. after reading more I thought the same thing. hat note option seems appropriate, no consensus needed to establish. the first option would be, as I said, for after the fact of writing the primary topic in secondary topic robes (with parentethical term).

as far as the bitcoin viewership surge: there was an article in a widely read bitcoin magazine reporting on a respectable conference entitled "prominent economist tells the world to sell bitcoin", that could have increased readership. However, in my experience the viewing pattern naturally is such, that a surge dies down gradually over another day or more, , like the curves of epidemics ( I am an epidemiologist), and not a single day surge with return to baseline the next day. So I agree with your theory.

the article i envision would be about the present-day use of the term ghost soldier, as found in newspaper articles. I ll just start and you'll see. I do that occasionally - that's how I wrote up dirtbox, which still needs to be renamed. someone renamed it dirtbox (cell phone) -in my view improperly, cause looking at other phone surveillance articles it should be [dirtbox phone tracking] analogous to Stingray phone tracker- so I should move/ place another redirect? --Wuerzele (talk) 05:09, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

@Wuerzele: No problem! It is finals week unfortunately ;(

Regarding bitcoin, I think there are plenty of even bigger news events (Microsoft accepting bitcoin, etc.) that would potentially drive much more people to the article, but even those big-hit stories result in a gain of only a few thousand views.

As for the Dirtbox title, I'm not really sure - not my area of expertise. I could see either title working honestly. Let me know if you have any more questions as you continue your work :) ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 08:37, 14 December 2014 (UTC)

Wikipedia and copyright message

Hello SuperHamster, thank you for notifing me the addition was incorrect. It was not my intent to do this would you please let me know how to post the same material, with out the copyrighted material.

Example: December 2014 Starbucks opens its first Starbucks Reserve Roastery and Tasting Room in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle, nine blocks away from its original store in Pike Place Market.[89]

Thank you Edelg003 (talk) 21:40, 18 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi @Edelg003: The easiest way to put it is to write everything entirely in your own words. Never take a phrase from another source and copy it down directly - just changing a few words isn't adequate, either. A nice way to avoid paraphrasing is to take simple notes on the subject you're writing about (ideally from a variety of sources), and then writing content using those notes in your own words. You might find Wikipedia:Close_paraphrasing#How_to_write_acceptable_content useful. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 02:28, 19 December 2014 (UTC)

copyrights

thanks for your remarks regarding adding a file image without clear copyrights. what can i provide if i take the personal image from its owner personally. should i ask him to email me the permission of use? and how can i add this permission to the file? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 3adel80 (talk • contribs) 09:38, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi there @3adel80: We would need the copyright owner to agree to license their photo under a free license - that is, a license that allows anyone to use the image, for any purpose, including commercially. Note that the copyright holder of the image is most likely not the subject in the image, but the person who took the image. If you can get in touch with the copyright holder, here are the steps you'll need to take:

• Place {{OTRS pending}} on the image. This will alert admins to the fact that permission is going to possibly be obtained for an image and not to delete it immediately.
• Ask the copyright holder of the image (the one who took the image) to license their work under a free license. Options are listed at WP:ICTIC; The Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 4.0 International license is the most common one for images.
• If and when you receive a reply from the copyright holder affirming that they have freely licensed their image, forward the email to permissions-commons@wikimedia.org. Once an OTRS volunteer verifies it they will appropriately tag the image and reply back to you. You can let me know when you've done this, and I can take care of it myself.

Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission provides more details on this. Let me know if you have any questions! Thanks, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:30, 21 December 2014 (UTC)

Happy New Years! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lantrebarr (talk • contribs) 22:05, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Hi there @Lantrebarr: Thanks for the update! Be sure to also take into considering the short comment I left below the review box - "A list of press releases and a press kit is not something covered in articles." I recommend removing these sections altogether.

In regards to sources and notability, more coverage is needed to show that the subject is notable. Sources should be from more reliable sources - with exception, blogs aren't particularly notable. Thanks, and have a great 2015 yourself! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 01:09, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

SuperHamster, happy new year to you, too! I look forward to working with you next semester. Meanwhile, I hope to tell the registered students about the plan for Wikipedia assignments, maybe survey them or otherwise prime the pump (so they'll be generally enthusiastic). I'm also working on specific assignments and Lesson Plans, as you may have noticed from my subpages. Anyway, a delightful 2015 to you ProfGray (talk) 01:18, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

Thank you ProfGray! Your course page is definitely coming along nicely. Let me know if and when you need anything, when the time comes. Feel free to throw my name out to students as a resource if they ever have any quick questions, too. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 01:52, 1 January 2015 (UTC)

Interview for The Signpost

This is being sent to you as a member of WikiProject Articles for creation

The WikiProject Report would like to focus on WikiProject Articles for creation for a Signpost article. This is an excellent opportunity to draw attention to your efforts and attract new members to the project. Would you be willing to participate in an interview? If so, here are the questions for the interview. Just add your response below each question and feel free to skip any questions that you don't feel comfortable answering. Multiple editors will have an opportunity to respond to the interview questions, so be sure to sign your answers. If you know anyone else who would like to participate in the interview, please share this with them. Thanks, Rcsprinter₁₂₃ (push) @ 10:41, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi @Rcsprinter123: Sounds like a nice opportunity, thanks for the invite! I see there are already quite a few responses to the questions - is there an optimal amount? I imagine there is a line to draw for too many responses. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 10:45, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Well, it is a big project, with many members. You can still add any comments you would like to, and I can trim down the whole thing afterwards. Rcsprinter¹²³ (warn) @ 10:49, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Cosmology portal background

I tried to fix the background in the Cosmology portal to make the image fill the border in wider monitors. Tell me if it looks ok now, because I can't know Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 21:58, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: It looks fine width-wise, but increasing the width also increases the height - which causes the image to extend beyond the bottom of the table. If there's no code-based solution, I think the best bet would be to take a portion of the image and modify it so that it can be tiled. I can try my hand with this when I've got time this weekend, if you'd like. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:01, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

What matters to me is that the width problem has been fixed. It was simpler than I thought, I just enlarged the image :) I don't believe the extra space at the bottom is a big problem, but if you could fix that, it'd be cool. I often have problems with copyright stuff so that's why I haven't uploaded a cropped image to fix that Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 22:30, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

I mean, from a design standpoint, it's not really fixed if it breaks other things, but it's definitely better than before :) For future reference, there are sites out there that can simulate what websites look like at other resolutions, such as this one. I'll take a look at creating a tiled image when I've got a bit of time. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:40, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Volvo Logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Volvo Logo.png. 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).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Stefan2 (talk) 23:33, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

copyvio

what's a copyvio? Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 16:16, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Stands for copyright violation - so in this case, the image I removed from the article was deleted for not respecting the copyright of the original works it was created from. Let me know if you have any questions! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:42, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Haha. It is my work, man. I made that. If you do a reverse image search on google, you can see that image is posted in a few other places, but I was the one who posted it. It is mainly on reddit and my username is Cosmobrain. I can edit my comments there to prove that's really me Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 19:46, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: You did assemble the image - but unless you yourself created each one of those pictures and artworks illustrating the different galaxies, you used works by other creators. If you use other peoples' work to create your own, you need respect the copyright of the authors of the works you are using. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:49, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Oh, come on. They are hubble images. They are freely licensed by default. Removing it for that reason is rather dumb. Sorry for honesty. Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 19:51, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Not all of them were - and even if they were Hubble images, you need to provide the source of all images you use in your work. I recommend you understand how copyright works and how we manage images on the Commons before making judgement calls. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:54, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Fine. How the hell do you want me to upload that image to commons then? How can I possibly add the source to all those images?

Also, all the images were either hubble images or already licensed images. I got them straight from the

lead section of the articles of the galaxies. In my opinion, reporting it for deletion was a really ridiculous action. They are f---- licensed images I got from the articles Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 20:19, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Argh. Sorry for the anger above. The thing is that I'm already sick and tired of those copyright garbage. Also, it is not your fault, so sorry for taking that more personally Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 20:37, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: It's cool, just keep a cool head.

I know that the Milky Way image was not from Wikipedia, at the least. In regard to sourcing, all you have to do is link to the image's source and state its authorship/licensing. If you can take the time to copy and edit a bunch of images, you can surely take the time to source it correctly.

The point of the Wikimedia Commons is to provide freely licensed content; its entire existence revolves around copyright, and it aims provide freely-licensed images for both Wikimedia projects and the public in general (primarily for educational purposes) It's not "copyright garbage" - if you don't want to take the time to respect copyright law and recognize the purpose behind the Commons, then there isn't a point to contribute there. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:20, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

If you'd like to discuss the Commons, how it works, and free licensing, I'd be happy to do so with you - as long as you're willing to keep and open mind about it. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:22, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

Yes. I still want to know how I will upload the image then. I'm guessing I have to cite the source of every single image? To do so, I will have to claim it as not my work. Also, I bet such composed images are not allowed. By that I mean, it is not allowed to use images of others to make a work Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 23:31, 17 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Not quite. The first step is to figure out how copyright and free licensing works.

For the most part, every creative work that anyone creates (in the U.S. and most other countries) is automatically copyrighted. This can include artwork, graphics, music, etc. Copyright means what it sounds like - the "right to copy", and that lies with the author of the image.

Now, you can't simply use another person's copyrighted work without their permission (sure, you can put together a graphic and post it on reddit and nothing will likely happen - we're talking from a technical and legal point of view, though). If I make a painting, and you take that painting and stick it on a shirt and sell it without my permission, I could potentially take you to court.

There is an exception to this, called "fair use" in the United States (and "fair dealing" in some other places). Since Wikimedia is based in the U.S., we'll look at it from a U.S. perspective: fair usage allows you to use a copyrighted work, without permission, with the following factors taken into consideration:

* The purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes

* The nature of the copyrighted work

* The amount and substantially of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole

* The effect of the use upon the potential market for, or value of, the copyrighted work

It's a case by case basis, but fair use allows, for example, Wikipedia to display short samples of songs in its articles, or a low-resolution picture of Mario in the Mario article, all without permission. But fair use is a whole other topic - back to copyright.

This is where the free license movement and the Creative Commons step in. The Creative Commons are a suite of licenses that allow authors to license their works in a way that allow anyone to use them, as long as the original author is attributed. There are other optional limitations, such as not allowing people to use your work for commercial purposes, or requiring anyone that uses your work to license their derivative under a similar license. The Wikimedia Commons is a host of free media, for anyone to use for any purpose (including commercial). This "free license movement" has lead to hundreds of millions of works being made available for all to use freely, often for educational purposes. For example, I myself have seen a couple of my freely licensed images appear in news articles or educational publications - it's a nice thing to contribute to.

So, this hopefully answers your question about whether or not you can create a work for the Commons that is composed of other images. You can, as long as the images you are using are also freely licensed. Remember, the point of free licenses is the let people to use works for their own purposes without seeking permission. If the images are copyrighted (or show no sign of free licensing), you don't have the right to copy the work to use in your own work. And yes, you should cite the sources of all the works that go into your own, even if they're in the public domain - claiming them as your own work is plagiarism. I know this is a lot to hit you with, and it is a broad overview, so feel free to ask for clarification or more details. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 10:03, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

Let me see if I understand. Basically I have to cite the authors and source of the every image and not claim it as my work? I mean, a good portion of it is indeed my work. But that's fine, I guess. I still don't understand if that would work, considering none of the sources refer to that image I made. I don't wanna take the risk of uploading it again without being 100% sure. Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 14:49, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Well, kind of - you are still the author of the work, but you are also using work from other people that you need to cite. It's like writing a research paper: you write the paper, but all of your facts came from other sources, which you need to cite. Not doing so would be plagiarism. Take a look at File:Tokyo Montage 2012.png, for example, or File:NYC Montage 2014 4 - Jleon.jpg for examples of how sources are given. Each file (or external link) is linked, along with the author.

"I still don't understand if that would work, considering none of the sources refer to that image I made." - I'm not sure what you mean by this? It sounds like you're thinking of article sources; we're not verifying information with images, we're simply stating where the images are coming from. Finally, I'd like to re-iterate that you need to make sure all the images you're using are freely licensed in a way that's compatible with the Commons. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:02, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

I'd like to re-iterate that you need to make sure all the images you're using are freely licensed in a way that's compatible with the Commons.

Well, I thought they were. They're all from NASA (except the Milky way image maybe) and are already on Wikipedia. Well, thanks. When I have the patience I'll cite the sources and upload. Also, thanks for explaining me about copyright laws, even though I still don't understand it 100%. Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 17:10, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Sure thing! Feel free to message me if you have any questions along the way. It definitely is a lot to grasp, and what I've told you is just the foundation - there are exceptions and special cases, such as photographing a sculpture: do you own the copyright to that image, since you didn't create the sculpture you're photographing? In some countries, yes, while in others, no. The key is to take it slowly and ask questions until you get there :) ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:06, 18 January 2015 (UTC)

I put my work back on List of galaxies with the proper sources, as you've probably seen. Since I was at it, I uploaded a cropped image of the hubble ultra deep field and added it on my Portal:Cosmology. I was too lazy to make it fit perfectly, but it is much better now :) Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 17:47, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Sourcing looks great, nice job - the only potential issue I see is the "Galaxies" text up top. Looks like that was made with a logo generator of some sort?

As for the portal, it does seem to fit a bit better - the problem is that you can never make a single image "fit perfectly", because people view the page at different resolutions. Image sizes don't change with the browser. What works for you won't work for me, and vice versa. I'm working on a tiled version now, though, and will see how that goes. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:51, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Did some investigating - so it turns out that background image URLs are suppressed on Wikipedia (even on-wiki images), so I don't think there's any way to make the background I had in mind tiled. The only sensible option I can think of for the background image would be if the size of the layout is kept constant (User:Juliancolton for an example), but that's not really sensible either for a portal. Unfortunately I don't think there's any way to make the background play nice :/ ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:14, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

You said that different monitors will show the background image in a different way. Well, that's partially true. The resolution of the screen affects the width of the page, not the height; so vertically the background can still fit in all resolutions. I didn't make it fit perfectly, by the way. There is some spare space at the bottom that can be easily removed if I calculate the number of spare pixels and remove them from the background image (by uploading a new version of the file) but I am being lazy now. Thanks for your work, but it seems fine as it is right now. It is not perfect but I guess no one will complain :) And in the future, I'll crop the image even more to make it fit Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 21:22, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Well, no, the height isn't constant either; as the monitor/browser gets narrower, the overlap will shrink until it actually starts cutting content off at the bottom. Mess around with this to see examples. I did remove the green border, so it's not obvious that the image extends beyond the border at higher resolutions. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:31, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

I made it so the portal will start auto-scrolling when the background isn't tall enough to fit the content. Portal should appear fine for most cases, I suppose. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:39, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Oh, the height changes as well, although not much.

The portal looks good without the border as well, although I'd prefer to leave it. Well, thanks for the edits there. Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 21:44, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

No problem. Cheers, ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 21:47, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

Nazi Police

Hi, you accepted that request but did not create the redirect. Just wondering if you forgot or mistakenly accepted it, rather than declined it? Bellerophon _{talk to me} 17:54, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Bellerophon: Aye, nice catch! I did create Nazi police, with differing capitalization from Nazi Police. Should we have both? ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:56, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

I don't see why not, I've created Nazi Police now. We often create alternate casing rediects as they may sometimes be useful Wikilinks, even if they don't strictly comply with WP:MOS. Thanks for handling requests at AFC/R, did you know the AFCH beta script allows scripted reviewing of these requests. It makes the process much easier and I fairly stable. Just thought I'd mention it :) Bellerophon _{talk to me} 18:16, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Bellerophon: Sounds good, thanks! I do use the AFCH to review drafts, but I haven't been able to figure out how to use it for redirects? All I see at WP:AFC/R is the typical "Review (AFCH)" link used for drafts. Either I've configured something wrong or I'm losing my eyesight. Could you point me in the right direction of what I should be looking for? ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 18:42, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

The current "pushed" version of AFCH does not work on rediects and categories. You need the now unmaintained beta version, you can find the import code at User:Bellerophon/common.js. You will need to disable the current version of the script in gadgets before importing the beta script. Personally I prefer the beta script, especially it's interface. The only real function you loose is that it does not support adding a copy of the decline reason to user talk pages when reviewing articles. Bellerophon _{talk to me} 18:56, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Bellerophon: Got it, thanks a bunch! Things should be a lot easier now... ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:15, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

commons

This is more of a test than anything else. Check out this image I uploaded and see if everything is ok with the licensing. If it's not, please let me tag it for deletion. If someone else does it, it will be kinda bad for my reputation on wikimedia Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 02:15, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Looks good, well done :) ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 02:17, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

Nice. I was kinda worried because PublicDomainPictures obviously isn't the actual author. It is just the name of the page where thousands of images have been uploaded, but since the image is free, I guess that doesn't matter :) Tetra quark ^{(don't be shy)} 02:23, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

I intend to upload some screenshots from a space simulator. Is this legal information enough? I think so, but I guess it should be more specific, right? I mean, it should mention "Creative Commons Attribution ShareAlike 4.0" or something Tetra quark ^(talk) 06:37, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Good question. Template:Attribution sounds like the template that could be used for this. However, I'm not really sure about this particular case - their FAQ seems to be very lenient, but I worry about the limitations of the last two bullets and I'm not sure if it qualifies for use in any product for any purpose. I'd take this to Wikipedia:Media copyright questions, and see what others have to say. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 17:41, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

I asked the owner of the website to add a specific license. He said he liked my idea and will do it but he doesn't have time now to do so. Meanwhile I'll bring this case to that page you linked. By the way, where exactly would that attribution template go? If I were to upload it, what would I have to choose in the "not my own work" list and later where to add that. Tetra quark ^(talk) 19:17, 23 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Great, even better if the organization agrees to license any screenshots under CC-BY-SA. If you get a thumbs up from the copyright help desk, the attribution template is just another license; you'd place it where you'd place any other licensing template. If the default upload wizard at the Commons doesn't provide it as an option, the older basic upload form has more options and customizability, including an option at the very bottom of the list ("May be used for any purpose, including commercially..."). ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 00:27, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

That older upload form is far better!Well, I left my question at the Media copyright questions you linked. Thanks Tetra quark ^(talk) 00:53, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Agreed - the wizard is great for simple uploads, but the old form is much more powerful. And thanks for posting the question. Looks like Masem already replied, and they're one of the most knowledgeable on the subject, so I'd go with the non-free upload. If there's an update on Creative Commons licensing in the future, a free image can be uploaded to the Commons then. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 00:56, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

How would the non-free upload work exactly? You mean fair use? Tetra quark ^(talk) 01:30, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Yep, fair use. You seem to have successfully uploaded non-free images before, but let me know if you need any help. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 06:05, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

The purpose of the images I want to upload isn't for fair use, so nevermind Tetra quark ^(talk) 06:19, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Gotcha - was thinking you wanted to put a screenshot into the Universe Sandbox 2 article, but I realize there's already one there. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 06:22, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Nah, that article is getting deleted. My intention is to upload a bunch of screenshots to commons because they can be very illustrative. I had added an image on moons of jupiter once that showed the planet, the moons and their orbits to scale. There's no image, as far as I know, that represents accuratelly what that planetary system actually looks like Tetra quark ^(talk) 06:48, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

Religions of the Hebrew Bible (Spring 2015) -- next week

Hi there. Just wanted to let my course starts tomorrow. We meet M and Ws. I'm not asking students to do anything with Wikipedia until after the first two class sessions, but some may want to begin sooner. How is your semester going?

Thank you again for your willingness to serve as an online ambassador for the course! Education Program:Miami University/Religions of the Hebrew Bible (Spring 2015)

Take care, ProfGray (talk) 19:35, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads up, @ProfGray: The course page looks pretty great, too - very specific and well laid out.

My semester is off to a good start, thanks for asking. Enjoying the classes now that they're getting more specific to my major. As always, feel free to ask me anything, and I'll try to keep tabs on students' edits. Cheers! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 20:45, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

  • User:Mediasingapore/sandbox (edit | talk | history | links | watch | logs)

Hi, we are creating a profile Mr Low who is an investor in Singapore and perhaps he has been quoted around wikipedia in many article.

Am new to creating a wikipedia article and hence the linking up wasn't right, however a profile page of his should contain the above info?

He is a board of director at a few places and it is important we have a profile on wikipedia now.

We seek your understanding in this.

Thank you

Mediasingapore (talk) 02:45, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

Hi @Mediasingapore: Several points to make.

• You say "we" - editors on Wikipedia should be editing as individuals. Your current account name is not appropriate, as it should represent you as an individual, not a company or organization.
• Subjects for Wikipedia article's need to meet our notability guidelines. This means that subjects must be covered in a variety of independent and reliable sources; this is how we determine what subjects are significant enough for coverage.
• Information in articles must be cited with sources, to verify the information and establish notability.
• The page you wrote is entirely promotional of Mr. Low - Wikipedia aims to be a factual source of information, free from bias.

If you wish to continue editing, I suggest you create a new account that represents you as an individual (I see you've filed a username change request). I also suggest you read our page on conflicts of interests, which covers writing about subjects you are associated with (and why it is discouraged). Finally, I suggest taking a look at Wikipedia:Your_first_article to guide you on gathering references and writing a page appropriate for Wikipedia. Thanks! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 02:52, 27 January 2015 (UTC)

New article references

I've created that article like 10 seconds ago. Can you please wait a little? Also, it seems that you've been stalking my activity, so please stop it. Even though your intentions are good, it's annoying and creepy. Tetra quark ^(talk) 02:42, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

I decided to create that page because I saw that article name redlinked on a See also section. I don't remember in which article though. I had a couple of beers Tetra quark ^(talk) 02:53, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

@Tetra quark: Any new article without references is subject to be tagged as unreferenced, as there's no telling whether the original author of an article plans on coming back to improve the article. It's useful for both editors and readers alike. Simply remove the tag when you add at least one reference - it's not a big deal. If you want to avoid it, I strongly recommend working up new articles in a sandbox until they are appropriately referenced, instead of pushing an article live without any. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 02:53, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Yes, maybe. I'm actually surprised at how quick people were at tagging it. I thought the article would pass unnoticed for a couple of minutes at least. Tetra quark ^(talk) 02:57, 30 January 2015 (UTC)

Adjusting pilot start date - WP:Co-op

Hello SuperHamster,

I'll be putting out a formal update sometime soon, but I wanted to inform you that I've decided to push our start date back to mid-February rather than in January. There are number of reasons for this, but the biggest factor is that we are now facing the hard work of implementing our designs on the Mediawiki interface. It's a limiting environment to work with from a web-building perspective, and the team that worked on the Teahouse can offer similar testimonials to these challenges. We also want to make sure there is time for us and for you to test the environment out, ask questions at our project's talk page, and give us a little time to make any last changes before we start inviting editors to the space. If some of you know you will be unavailable during this time, it's totally fine if you need to bow out for the pilot. But we do need all the mentors we can get, so even if you can take the time to mentor just one or two editors, that would be fantastic.
Thanks a bunch, I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} on behalf of Wikipedia:Co-op.

Contributions

Hi SuperHamster, thanks for your help on Nodejs. This year I've participated on WP a lot. New articles like MPLAB devices, Flare3D, Away3D, Lightbot, OpenStudio, as well as new sections on topics I have worked with : OrCAD#Products, SpeedTree#Products, and so on. Consider awarding me a barnstar, for a little happiness goes a long way! Kudos Wonderfl ^(reply) 07:18, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: Fantastic contributions! Glad to see computer and software-related subjects getting attention from you. Unfortunately, I don't give out barnstars per request - it's much more rewarding to be surprised by a barnstar than to be expecting one, anyway! Keep on doing your great work - and maybe you'll see me again in the future ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 07:24, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the encouragement. Any specific computing-related topics that are notable (and have good refs, news, or otherwise) and are missing articles? I usually like working my way up from non-existing articles or stubs (stuff that gets very little attention). The ones that are already documented are already getting the lov' from all around so my help isn't significant. Keep pinging. Its easier that using my watchlist to find your replies. Wonderfl ^(reply) 07:28, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: Ohh...good question. Can't really think of anything off the top of my head, but there are tons of stub and start-level articles at Wikipedia:WikiProject_Software#Project_Articles or Category:Computer_science_articles_by_quality, so I'd sift through those to find anything you might be familiar with. I've done some work with Google articles, and there are plenty of stubs to expand there, too (perhaps Google Fit, Google Flights, and Android Wear - at the least, these could probably use updating). ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 07:42, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Can you help me add my articles to the Wikipedia:WikiProject_Software? The full list is at my user page, if you can do one, I'll repeat for the rest, or just tell me how to do it. ie., what tag to add to the talk page. And how do I mark it "to be reviewed"? -- Wonderfl ^(reply) 09:15, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: Sure - I've done so over at Talk:OpenStudio, which you can copy the template for. You add the article to WikiProject Computing, and then specify WikiProject Software as a "sub" WikiProject. If you want, you can try to evaluate the quality / importance, though I try to usually leave that to WikiProject members with more experience to do. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 14:47, 10 February 2015 (UTC)

Thank you. I'll copy it over. Any such thing for electronics related stuff like MPLAB devices?? Wonderfl ^(reply) 12:59, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Okay. Figured it out. I added Computing, Electronics, Free software and Open (where appropriate, of course). So many articles I've encountered not part of any project. Such as the articles I've collected into navboxes. What is to be done with those? Add 'em all into a project marked as start/stub class? And how does one go about requesting for rating? Is it periodic or do you have to ask? Certain well written articles I'd like to get rated. Any benefit of rating? Wonderfl ^(reply) 13:13, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Also, dunno what people consider important. PIC microcontroller gets like 1K views a day, and it was marked "Low" importance. I cleared that rating (unrated importance). Is there a scale or metric for these things or is it entirely by gut? Wonderfl ^(reply) 13:18, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

Discovered the quality criteria, but wondering how to get something nominated for review. I wonder why I rated everything I did as "start" class. According to this guide, its at least "C" class. Substantial, at least one reliable source, may required cleanup. Can I change page ratings as per this guide or do I have to ask? MPLAB devices is at least C if not B. MPLAB is Start, Flare3D/Away3D is C, Adobe Flash Player, Adobe AIR, SpeedTree are C or even B. PIC microcontroller is C. The rest are mostly correctly rated as Start. Am I right? Wonderfl ^(reply) 13:23, 11 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: Hey, sorry for the delayed reply - been a busy last couple of days for me. You're free and encouraged to place articles in WikiProjects. Regarding requesting ratings, you usually don't do anything - if you leave a rating/assessment field blank, WikiProject members will oftentimes swing by to rate it (assuming the WikiProject is active). The most direct benefit of ratings is that it mostly serves as a way to keep track of how much progress is being made in a WikiProject's subset of articles, and for editors to be able to identify articles that need expanding.

Regarding article importance, most WikiProjects have their own guide for how to assess that (e.g. Wikipedia:WikiProject_Video_games/Assessment#Importance_scale, for video games). I note that WikiProject Computing also has one, though it's very brief and rather subjective.

The reason why all your ratings are turning up as "start" is because that's what you defined the parameter as in your templates: {{WikiProject Computing|class=start|importance=|software=yes|software-importance=}}. You need to indicate its class yourself. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 05:56, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

P.S. I think you'll find the general assessment FAQ to be helpful. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 06:04, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply. My final question was asking if I could change the rating parameter based on the criteria. My question still holds:

"Can I change page ratings as per this guide or do I have to ask? MPLAB devices is at least C if not B. MPLAB is Start, Flare3D/Away3D is C, Adobe Flash Player, Adobe AIR, SpeedTree are C or even B. PIC microcontroller is C. The rest are mostly correctly rated as Start. Am I right?"

Wonderfl ^(reply) 06:13, 13 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: Oop, my bad! I'd say those are pretty solid ratings - I'm not too experienced with quality ratings (especially since I'm not a member of those particular WikiProjects), but looking at the criteria, those all seem sitting. And thanks for your interest! The more we can sort articles into their respective WikiProjects, the better. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 03:38, 14 February 2015 (UTC)

I waited for an answer here and here for more than a week, but no replies. Should I just go ahead and change article ratings then? Or is there someone experienced in this that I should first confirm with? Tired of waiting for confirmations .. Wonderfl ^(reply) 12:16, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: I don't think it's a big deal - if you're confident in your ratings, I'd just go along through it. Some WikiProjects are more active than others. What I do recommend is getting familiar with the article rating guidelines of a few WikiProjects (computing, software, etc.), and focus on rating those articles. This allows you to be well-versed and confident in rating for those specific topic areas. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 19:02, 20 February 2015 (UTC)

I did it. Rated all articles I came across. I'll remember to do the needful from here onwards. I noticed that articles are rated one below the obvious rating. Like if an article is pretty long (2-3 sections) you'd think its C but usually Start is used. If an article is very long and quite thorough, then C is used, not B, because B has a strict criteria. Thanks for the help and encouragement!! Wonderfl ^(reply) 15:01, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

@Wonderfl: Sounds good - glad to help! I've noticed that too - I'm guessing editors tend to be conservative in giving higher ratings, and/or there's simply a lack of editors who rate articles once improvements are made from the stub/start level. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 16:09, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

WP:Co-op news for December 2014 – Feburary 2015

Hey SuperHamster/Archive, it's been a while. The Co-op team has been hard at work during over the winter, so let's get right into what's been happening:

Landing page draft. You know it's a draft when you need to squint at the logo, ha ha.

• Graphic design work is nearing completion and development work is coming along slowly but surely. The main components of the space, profiles, the landing page, and the mentor landing page have all been built, and we're basically just putting the pieces together. We have close-to-final draft of the landing page, which is currently at User:Slalani/Landing_page, and in the thumbnail to the right. You can check out other components over at User:Slalani if you're curious. Soni, Slalani, and I are working together on some of the front page elements. We've also been doing some testing on test.wikipedia.org for profile building and matching. If you're curious about checking that out, let me know.
• We've finished up a survey for newer editors to assess their experiences of using existing help spaces (e.g. Reference Desk, Teahouse, IRC, The Wikipedia Adventure) on en.wikipedia. Gabrielm199 is putting together a summary of that survey, and in the meantime, some findings from that survey of 45 newer editors include:
  • On average, editors found contributing to Wikipedia to be easier after using the help space compared to before.
    • However, after using one or more help spaces, only half of editors reported that editing, addressing social challenges, and resolving technical issues were easy or very easy. The other half of editors were either neutral, or reported that these matters were difficult or very difficult.
  • Just under 30% (11 of 38 editors) of newer editors said they probably would have stopped editing entirely had they not received support from the help space they used.
  • Editors frequently reported either 1) that they would not have been learn what they needed without the help space, or 2) That they could have found it, but admitted that it would have been difficult or taken much longer.
• We will be making one final move of the pilot start date to March 4th, 2015. This is the last move (I promise), because we can't afford to run the pilot any later than that. So there it is: March 4th or bust! But we won't bust, because there are just a few things left on our plate before we can run our pilot successfully. I'll be alerting you about when you will be able to make mentor profiles soon, so when you get a message about that, please take a minute or two to create your profile here (otherwise, you won't get matched to any editors!).

Thanks to all of the new mentors who have joined over the past few months. Big thanks to Missvain to posting about our little project here to the gendergap-l mailing list. I, JethroBT ^{drop me a line} 00:47, 13 February 2015 (UTC) on behalf of Wikipedia:Co-op.

Thank you!

Thanks for passing the article! I'm gonna go through the history and figure out which people were involved in expanding it significantly (there's several) and give them a barnstar for it. Also, i'm planning on submitting the article to Featured nominations next, is there anything you think I should change in the article beforehand or is it good to go now? Silverseren^C 22:28, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

@Silver seren: No problem, the barnstar awarding sounds great! If I recall correctly, the majority of the plot summary came from one IP editor, which is pretty cool.

I wish I could offer any advice on getting it to featured status, but I'm relatively new to GA's (and as I mentioned, that was my first review!), so I'd say I'm even less qualified to provide any suggestions towards an FA. But it looks pretty good, and I can't see anything in particular I'd like to point out, so good luck! ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:32, 21 February 2015 (UTC)

Hey @Theviewsw1: Sure thing. The messages I left on your talk page were generic welcome messages, but I do hope you find them useful. I think the number one point to make is that you seem to be editing on behalf of The View, for which you have a conflict of interest - which resulted in you creating a promotional page, which resulted in that page's deletion. If you'd like to continue editing, I do recommend creating a new account first to identify yourself as an individual, rather than on behalf of a company.
