==image stuff==
Jimfbleak, I replaced the generic {{tl|PD}} tag at ] with a {{tl|PD-USGov-Interior-FWS}}, interpreting your summary, "public domain USFWA," as meaning exactly that. If this is right, then no need to respond (though a more precise source for the image would be great if you have the info on hand). If not, then please fix the tag or let me know. Thanks. ] 01:02, 13 February 2006 (UTC)


== Costa Rica == == COI workaround? ==


Hi Jim,
I felt the same way you did about the people and scenery in CR. I was there for a few days and added only 4 species to my life list (all found in North America too), as I recall, but as I added Total Solar Eclipse to my astronomical list, the trip was definitely worth it.


Got your message, thanks. First article attempt got deleted. Probably quite common. Still sad.
It's nice to know I didn't put any misinformation in Clay-colored Robin.


As you rightly mentioned, conflict of interest (COI) is the problem. Is there a workaround? Do I get someone else to write about me or are there more ways to just about keep article neutral enough for publication? Can I trouble you to have a look whether if it's worth my time requesting for a retrieval of the deleted content for another try? Thanks.
I'm glad you liked ]. I added one of your comments. I've barely even seen these&mdash;I've been unlucky in my small amount of winter birding in the eastern U.S. (or maybe I just thought "This is a good spot"), and the flocks don't seem to happen much in New Mexico. If you feel like it and have the time, I think that page could use a description of how close the birds are, what it's like when they show up, etc.


Cen2mftn
The ''Firefly Encyclopedia of Birds'' seems to say that drongos follow mixed-species flocks rather than leading them. See the bottom of and the top of the next. However, if you saw them obviously leading the flocks, I'm not going to argue.

I hope you're doing well. I noticed that the Misplaced Pages page for Derek Warburton was recently deleted under the reason "G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion."
Greetings. From the description and use of ], it appears you intended this media to be freely available.
I believe the deletion may have been made in error, as I have reviewed the content of the article and would like to provide clarification regarding its notability. Derek Warburton has been covered extensively in independent, reliable sources such as:
I took the liberty of applying a {{tl|GFDL-presumed}} tag. Could you confirm this at by replacing my edit with {{tl|GFDL-self}}?

Hi there. I saw that you blocked an ] with a good history of contributions because of just one incident without warning him. The ] indicates that you should warn the user about his contributions (unless the vandalism is ''truly'' severe) before resorting to blocks, and if you need to block, to do it in short periods of time (usually 24 hours) for anonymous editors, as they can be editing from a shared IP pool. As a result, I've unblocked the user for the time being, but if he continues vandalizing, feel free to block again. ]]<sup>(] - ])</sup> 08:09, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

Hi Jimfbleak, just wondering why you removed my addition to the ] gallery? Even if you have a really good reason, it would have been nice of you to have left a message in the talk page under the "Gallery" heading I'd started. trolleymusic 20:53, 21 March 2006 (UTC)


Thanks for your review on my recently created page for Mr. Lindholm. Mr. Lindholm is a friend and I will disclose that COI moving forwards. Before I request recovery for the draft, I have some questions.
:Fair enough given the reasons left on my talk page - I'm quite new to this and was just a bit startled when it disappeared with no reason. I've removed it from the article, and thanks for the reply :)


Would you be able to provide some clarification on why the page was deleted for ]'':'' ]? Mr. Lindholm is still alive and the purpose of the article is to provide additional context and information behind the development of graphic processing units, in particular the GeForce 256 hardware T&L and GeForce 3 shader units, as these technological advancements were key to modern GPUs.

Request for Review of Deletion of "Derek Warburton" Misplaced Pages Page

Dear Jimfbleak,

I hope you're doing well. I noticed that the Misplaced Pages page for Derek Warburton was recently deleted under the reason "G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion." I believe the deletion may have been made in error, as I have reviewed the content of the article and would like to provide clarification regarding its notability. Derek Warburton has been covered extensively in independent, reliable sources such as:

  • Forbes: An interview discussing branding in the media and entertainment sectors. (Forbes)
  • Elle Canada: Featured for promoting international emerging designers. (Elle Canada)
  • Flaunt Magazine: Covered for launching a makeup line in collaboration with FACE Stockholm. (Flaunt)
  • Glamour Magazine: Featured for his philanthropic work encouraging self-love. (Derek Warburton Press)
  • Mr. Warburton Magazine: As the founder and editor-in-chief, showcasing art, fashion, and celebrity. (Mr. Warburton Magazine)

Furthermore, we understand the importance of adhering to Misplaced Pages's guidelines for neutrality and verifiability, and we are currently in the process of editing the article to ensure it aligns with these standards.

I would be grateful if you could review the article again, considering these improvements and the sources supporting his notability. If the article can be restored, I will continue to monitor and improve it to meet Misplaced Pages's guidelines. Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing from you.

Jenn Salmorin, you claim to know the content of a deleted article that you cannot see, and you say we are currently in the process of editing the article to ensure it aligns with these standards. You have an obvious conflict of interest, please read independent verifiable sources (sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the person or an associated organisation, press releases, YouTube, IMDB, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the person claims or interviewing them), the notability guidelines, promotion (articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic, with verifiable facts, not opinions or reviews) and paid editing. I note that your supposed refs include an interview with him and his own magazine, how are these independent third-party sources as we require here? If any new version appears that is non-compliant with our rules, I'll delete it and consider blocking the creator. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 06:26, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Derek Warburton has been covered by publications such as Forbes, Elle Canada, and Flaunt Magazine, which I believe meet these standards. If necessary, we are happy to provide a full list of these sources for your review.
My main objective is to ensure that any future article on Derek Warburton is fully compliant with Misplaced Pages’s policies. Could you advise on the best way to move forward?
I understand the importance of relying on independent, reliable third-party sources. Going forward, I will ensure that the team references only notable publications excluding interviews, press releases, or any sources affiliated with Derek Warburton or his organizations.
The primary goal is to ensure that any future article fully meets Misplaced Pages’s standards for neutrality and verifiability. I would greatly appreciate your guidance on how to proceed constructively. Would preparing a draft and submitting it through the Articles for Creation (AfC) process for community review be the appropriate next step? If there are other considerations or steps we should follow, I am happy to relay this to the team and ensure they are addressed.
I sincerely apologize if my initial outreach caused any misunderstanding about my intentions. I fully respect Misplaced Pages’s guidelines and your authority in this matter. My goal is to address the issue constructively and ensure compliance moving forward.
Thank you again for your time and insights. I look forward to your advice on how best to resolve this matter.

Request for Review of Deletion of Lindholm Misplaced Pages Page

Hi Jimfbleak,

Thanks for your review on my recently created page for Mr. Lindholm. Mr. Lindholm is a friend and I will disclose that COI moving forwards. Before I request recovery for the draft, I have some questions.

Would you be able to provide some clarification on why the page was deleted for U5: Misuse of Misplaced Pages as a web host? Mr. Lindholm is still alive and the purpose of the article is to provide additional context and information behind the development of graphic processing units, in particular the GeForce 256 hardware T&L and GeForce 3 shader units, as these technological advancements were key to modern GPUs. I included numerous citations and kept the tone of the article objective to avoid bias. Would you be able to let me know which sections were not objective and require updates or edits?

Your help is much appreciated as I'd like to ensure that any future article on Mr. Lindholm is compliant with Misplaced Pages policies.

Thanks! Bage4416 (talk) 16:36, 20 December 2024 (UTC)

Request for Review of Deletion of Guanghua Li Misplaced Pages Page

Hi Jimfbleak,

Thanks for your review on my recently created page for Guanghua Li.

Guanghua Li is a photographer, I like her children's pictures and that's the reason I create this page.

Would you be able to provide some clarification on why the page was deleted? The purpose of this entry is to introduce her briefly. There are many reports about her in Chinese. I already remove some personal description words and write it neutrally.

Your help is much appreciated as I'd like to ensure that any future article on Guanghua Li is compliant with Misplaced Pages policies.

Thanks. 数峰青 (talk) 15:08, 21 December 2024 (UTC)

Follow up on ZKH Industrial Supply page

Hi Jimfbleak,
Thanks and well received the latest feedback. I will adjust the content accordingly.
Don't get me wrong. I don't want to create promotional content for the organisation, I just want to write some existing facts about the firm so that audience can have more visibility about the company when they search it. The company is a Chinese firm and has listed on NYSE since 2023. Currently most of third-parties (like news) are from local and not in english language, I wonder if that's acceptable if I use them in citation? And is there a minumum number of reference needed?
Besides reference issue, regarding the latest edits, are any other parts that I need to adjust my wording?
Thanks and looking forward to your feedback.

I see they tried your generosity a smidgen too far 😇😈. Folk think that making the declaration gives them great latitude. As a pedantic old scrote I thought of Bah! and Humbug!. Please never stop being generous, especially with rope. Mwahahahaha! 🇺🇦 Fiddle Faddle 🇺🇦 17:59, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

Thanks Fiddle, I was recently criticised for being too gung-ho, so I'm playing nicely over the festive season, merry Christmas Jimfbleak - talk to me? 20:41, 23 December 2024 (UTC)
I doubt one will please everyone. Whatever you do, do it justifiably, as you do normally. Festive leniency of a good concept. A velvet fist in an iron glove? 🇺🇦 Fiddle Faddle 🇺🇦 21:19, 23 December 2024 (UTC)

I am writing an article titled 'Kibirige Desire Edward" and just noticed that it was previously used but deleted on its submission. I hope you do not affect mine, it is an author's biography. (~~~~) Habombo (talk) 06:53, 25 December 2024 (UTC)
