Your edits are appearing under Vandalism in Huggle
This is fyi only. for Encyclopedia. Clearly bot mistake. --AmritasyaPutra 06:24, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- I don't use automated tools, the editor in question has been reverted and blocked. Thanks for the heads up, I'll let the bot operator know. Nakon 06:26, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
Product data
You recently closed Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Product data record where you say "Should additional references become available, I would be willing to review this close." I don't understand why you didn't accept the existing reference which I supplied but, anyway, here's another one: Product Data Record: The heart of PLM. This source goes on for pages discussing the product data record which is an essential in a manufacturing administration system. Andrew D. (talk) 12:39, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks, this reference does look a lot better. I'll revert the close and restore the article if you could please add it to the article. Nakon 16:29, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
just rich gates
Hello. Can you please reconsider that article deletion? It was re done and one of the delete votes states that their reason was that the subject did not fit criteria.....but actually the artist does fit. On case my IP changes again I am the IP who keeps voting keep on that article. Thank you2601:C:6783:6A01:E1C0:CBAF:775F:268C (talk) 00:59, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
- At the time of deletion, the article did not meet the notability criteria for music-related articles and there was a consensus to delete it. Nakon 16:35, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
Thanks...
...for reverting the vandalism to my user page. Here's a question: I wasn't able to open the page to see what the 988K bytes were that the vandal posted there (or, rather, I didn't have the patience to wait until it loaded), but do you think it could be related in any way to this, in which an editor named Moxy_reborn's user page wouldn't open because of the million bytes of images of Angela Merkel which that editor had posted there? My understanding is that "Moxy" is the username of a banned or indef blocked editor, and I'm wondering if these things are all connected. BMK (talk) 23:59, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
- It's very likely. The edit contained hundreds of image inclusions which would overload the page when trying to render it. This activity matches several patterns of long term abuse. Nakon 00:02, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thought it might. Could you also take a look at the IP editor who'se currently vandalising by talk page, 82.132.219.228? Thanks. BMK (talk) 00:03, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Re:ISUPsychlaw
The account was blocked after I had a look at the subject matter from which they were editing, a psychology and law professor from Iowa State University. Iowa State University would abbreviate to ISU, and psychology and law would abbreviate to psychlaw. The latter part wasn't an issue, but the ISU part suggested that this could be a corporate account or an account with a shared editor base, hence the block. It was, in fairness, a judgement call on my part, so I am open to a review of the action. Don't be shy to ask if there is anything else you'd like to know. TomStar81 (Talk) 00:04, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the clarification. The editor was confused due to the block message itself since it implied bad faith on their part. From the template that was used, " is obviously profane; threatens, attacks or impersonates another person; or suggests that you do not intend to contribute positively to the encyclopedia". I'll explain that it was due to their possible shared account status and go from there. Thanks again, Nakon 00:09, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- Before the account be unblocked (if it comes to that) it'd be a good idea to ask about the Psychology1234 account, if the person behind that account is the same one behind ISUPsychlaw then that will create trouble for the user vis-a-vis sock-puppetry. I intentionally avoided filing for a case for the two editors on good faith grounds since with one account blocked a new account could be created to take its place, but if they belong to the same editor it should be explained that any unblocking for a name change would also have to result in a declaration of multiple accounts and the appropriate tags for both accounts so that the editor can avoid any future allegations of socking here on the site. TomStar81 (Talk) 16:09, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Assuming you're an admin
Regarding correction tape, it looks like there's more than enough images there, especially since they're all of the same tape model. Moreover, they're all uploaded by a user named "Fullmark," which seems like a "subtle" advertising attempt... Is it alright to remove all but one of those images? If it's okay, I assume you'll do it, since you would be able to delete them at the same time (assuming you have that power). -- UltimateKuriboh (talk) 02:10, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- Yes, removing all but one of the images would be most appropriate. Please go ahead and make this edit. If you run in to any issues, please let me know. — Nakon 02:12, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- UK, the images themselves are on the Commons. Neither Nakon nor I has admin rights there. To get them deleted, you would have to go to the Commons and make a deletion request. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:56, 11 April 2015 (UTC)

Miniature portrait of George Washington, by Peale

- Hello, the article was deleted after the discussion at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Miniature portrait of George Washington, by Charles Willson Peale. Please review this discussion before making any further edits. Thanks, Nakon 03:40, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
AfD Question
Hi, I am not questioning your closes on the Deathcentrik albums but for my own information I would like some help. My understanding of significant coverage is more than one or two reviews in RS. If that is not the case I would like to know what the community considers significant coverage for music so I do not AfD things for mo reason. A person with a couple minor articles would never pass GNG and ir uses the same criteria. I am still learning and prefer to not repeat mistakes. Thank you for your help.Jbh (talk) 10:57, 12 April 2015 (UTC)
- Well it has been a couple of days and I see you have been active. Just to be clear, despite the wording, the above request was to request to please explain an administrative action. Thank you for your help and understanding. Jbh (talk) 10:51, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
- Apologies for the delay, I must have missed this thread in my notifications. The articles were kept as the sources were determined to be reliable enough to meet WP:NALBUMS. As to why the community considers it reliable, I would recommend asking at the reliable sources noticeboard for a wider review. If I can answer anything else, please let me know. Nakon 22:44, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thank you for getting back to me. I was more interested in the quantity of coverage rather than the quality of sources ie the meaning of significant coverage as the community now considers it. My concern is that if significant is seen as one or two RS in total ie nothing else is out there not that only one or two are currently in the article, then I really need to adjust my judgement. I am not saying these were bad closes I just do not have enough experience here to have parsed community definitions vs my own ideas. (For instance I would judge significant coverage as being similar to the coverage received by a band with a charted album, in a major market rotation etc. - in other words a comparable standard rather than a lesser standard.) Any help understanding would be great. Jbh (talk) 23:15, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
- Generally, if there are at least two reliable sources, the criteria is met. Per the guidelines at WP:GNG, "significant coverage" refers to the quality of the sources rather than the number available. Nakon 00:27, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
- OK. Thank you. That helps a lot. Jbh (talk) 00:32, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Archamia fucata
Greetings. I was following up on a new article that I patrolled and found that it has been deleted because it was created by a band user. Obviously, I thought the article was worthwhile enough to be part of the encyclopedia but I understand that you probably have to enforce the ban on this user. Is there any way to resurrect this article put it onto a draft page in my user space and allow me to submit it as a new article? I don't even know this person who created the article and so there is no conflict of interest and I am not a sock puppet as you probably can tell from looking at my contribution history. Also I'd like to know if any other articles that this band user had submitted have been deleted and I would like to ask for the similar courtesy of resurrecting these articles so that I can submit them into main space. Let me apologize ahead of time if I'm asking something that goes against Misplaced Pages policy because at this point in time I have no idea whether I'm doing something wrong by even asking you to do this. I am submitting this request to you in good faith with the goal of improving and expanding the content of the encyclopedia. Best Regards,
- Bfpage |leave a message 13:13, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
- I just found the drafts of these articles in the user space of this banned editor. Is it appropriate for me to remove them from the draft pages and resubmit them as articles in main space? Best regards,
- The list of deleted articles is available in the section a few up on my talk page. If there are any on that list that you feel would still be appropriate, please check with User:OccultZone, as the content should be available in their userspace. Nakon 22:47, 14 April 2015 (UTC)
Joseph2302 Block - Speedy Deletion
I just came upon a page (https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=For_muy_bien&action=history) that, as you can see through the linked history, Joseph put up for speedy deletion. This tag appears to have been removed by one of the original authors, but in my opinion the tag is valid. This is especially given the content in the last section which states information about two random people in Spanish class.
I was going to bring this to Joseph's attention, but as it appears he cannot do anything about it currently I was unsure of where to turn. As you were the admin who blocked, I am making the assumption that you can do something or pass it along to an appropriate admin.
Thank you very much for your consideration! WhistlingZebra (talk) 04:04, 15 April 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks, I've deleted the page. Nakon 15:38, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

Responding to Nakon's deletion of the article "Learning-Disadvantage Gap"
Hello Nakon,
I consider your deletion of the article "The Learning-Disadvantage Gap" a hasty and inappropriate decision as it was based on a single quote that was taken out of context from a 25 March 2015 talk page response in regards to the proposed deletion of this legitimate and informative article.
Please note in my quote, “The Learning-Disadvantage Gap is a collection of original articles,” of which you focused on, I was referring not to myself but rather to the authors of the two hundred verifiable reference articles.
The seventh paragraph of the same communication went on to address specifically these two hundred references as shown here. Here’s the quote: “he collection of two hundred plus references to the Gap consists of works by the U.S. Department of Education, K-12 teachers, principals, and district superintendents, university professors, and studies, parents and students, civil rights groups, court cases, constitutional attorneys, statistical groups, arts advocacy groups, and more. Just one reference alone includes a list of five hundred university professors who as a group are petitioning the U.S. Department of Education…”
The rest of my quote, “reliable separately published articles not yet compiled in a format easily accessible to the public,” explains that while these independently authored articles are currently and verifiably published and accessible to the public through various online and traditional sources, they are now compiled as a quick-read and convenient WP article.
I'm not making an appealing your decision here, asking only for future editor/administrator fairness and to be judged solely on how well the article itself abides by WP written policies. For all that has been said, I appreciate the opportunity to rewrite the article in our user-sandbox which will hopefully establish itself as a legitimate standalone WP article in the future. Thank you, as well as to Audacity, Four Violas, and others.
JCharlesThompson (talk) 01:49, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hello, thank you for your comments. Please feel free to work on a new draft in your sandbox that addresses the issues outlined in the AFD discussion and submit it for reconsideration once you feel it's ready. Thanks, Nakon 02:00, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
Deletion review for 2015 Los Angeles train crash

Gobonobo Edit reversion
In the Minnesota section of "Education", I deleted the Quitno press' 'Smartest state' survey information from 2006. They are a publisher in KS that conducts data surveys of various data criteria of state governments, among the major categories are "Smartest State", "Most Dangerous State", "Most Dangerous City", "Most Dangerous Metro Area", "Most Livable State", "Healthiest State", and "Most Improved State". Further, their ranking of jurisdictions in terms of "safety" has been criticized for faulty methodology and inappropriate use of data by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the American Society of Criminology, and the U.S. Conference of Mayors.(1) Their methodology used in benchmarking educational systems is no better. And the title of 'Smartest state' is dubious at best even with only a minor glance at their 21 criteria of 'statistical analysis'--rather limited in scope: http://www.morganquitno.com/edfact06.htm#FACTORS More importantly, it is outdated. The 2009 information combed from the U.S. Census is hardly more current but it is reliable, accurate, and relevant. Even more noteworthy are the results of the survey conducted by National Center for Educational Statistics that I included. It proves that despite lower per student expenditures, the state of MN does provide sufficient skill in teaching Math and Science proficiency--an area that has recently garnered negative press for the country as a whole. Additionally, many states in the upper Midwest (including MN) can boast high marks in the SAT exams---this was not included in the original pre-edit section. However, I updated the ACTs average composite scores for MN students to reflect pertinent data as recent as 2014. User 'Gobonobo' reverted all of my edits, and explained in their summary that I had not included an explanation for my initial edits. I thought the edits spoke for themselves: they are accurate, current, and relevant. All sources were cited and are totally accurate and verifiable. You the be the judge.

WP:PERM/RV
Hi Nakon, I'd like to know why am I still remaining in WP:PERM/RV neither being approved nor being denied... I can also see that you have accepted the request of the editor who had asked two days after me. Please make your intentions clear. Regards --JAaron95 | Talk | Contribs 19:19, 19 April 2015 (UTC)

- Hi @Nakon:,Can you ask someone (admins who routinely check WP:PERM/RV) to say their opinion on my request. I don't think other admins will voluntarily post a comment on what you purposefully didn't touch. It seems they don't wanna mess with you .

Deletion of the page Ingele Juif Genial
Good day dear Nakon. I would like to know what was wrong with the page you deleted. I have never created an article before so I might have not followed the rules. I would like to know them. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leon1778 (talk • contribs) 07:42, 20 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hello, the article was tagged for deletion because it did not include an indication of why it was important. If you would be able to update the draft to include why the subject is notable, it may be submitted for review. If you have any further questions, please let me know.

OccultZone
Hi Nakon - I've made an offer to OccultZone, which I believe is in keeping with your re-block. If he agrees to that, I'd be willing to unblock - but would like to hear any thoughts. Worm(talk) 07:44, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- My unblock is currently set to expire within 24 hours as it was just a re-block of their initial block. I don't feel that an unblock before 2015-04-22T18:36:30 would be beneficial. Nakon 07:47, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- As per their additional comments, I am strongly against an unblock as the editor clearly does not understand the reason behind the re-block. Nakon 07:53, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- So am I, don't worry I won't be unblocking. Worm(talk) 07:57, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Page protection
Could you semi-protect the article on Kai Budde. It seems to be our IP hopper's next target. Thanks in advance. Sir Sputnik (talk) 08:20, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- Done Nakon 08:21, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
- And they've moved on to Josh Utter-Leyton. Would you mind semi-protecting that article as well. Thanks. Sir Sputnik (talk) 04:22, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Sahil Rayyan at AfD
No problem with the deletion of Sahil Rayyan, as done by you per Misplaced Pages:Articles_for_deletion/Sahil_Rayyan. However, I must have missed the preceding events involving a contested PROD as well as the AfD nom, despite it being on my watchlist - too busy elsewhere, I guess.
Is there any chance you could let me know (a) who contested the PROD and (b) what rationale they used (if any). I'm not intending to go have a word with them but there is some background stuff going on and the info might prove to be useful at a later date. - Sitush (talk) 04:31, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
- The PROD was contested by Pankajclub1 (talk · contribs) and the rationale was "everything is perfect". Nakon 04:34, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
- Ok, thanks very much. - Sitush (talk) 05:11, 23 April 2015 (UTC)
