If I declined your draft at AfC, and you came to ask me to re-review it, please don't (unless I expressly said you could) – I feel it's fairer to the other drafts that yours goes back to the pool... and probably also fairer to your draft that someone else reviews it next. (And if you just came to tell me you've made changes, that's great, but no need to inform me.)

If you still want to leave me a message about a draft or article, I'd appreciate if you could please link to the page in question, so I don't have to go hunting for it. Ta.


Hello. You mentioned Draft:Benjamin Warlo isn’t notable enough. Should Sylvester Seeger-Hansen still be an article? Regards, StadionK (talk) 10:16, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@StadionK: I don't know, I haven't reviewed that article. I was only reviewing the Warlo draft, and it didn't demonstrate notability. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:24, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Pratikshourabh1122: the issue is that you should not be a) writing about yourself (see WP:AUTOBIO), or b) promoting anything including yourself (see WP:YESPROMO). -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 07:33, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
ohh so i can't create my page on wikipedia in anyway Pratikshourabh1122 (talk) 08:24, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You can include limited biographical information, as relates to your work on Wikipedia, on your user page, in compliance with WP:UP. This must not be promotional in nature, or include links to external resources, and must not be effectively an online CV/resume. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:27, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Nor can you upload your image to Wikimedia Commons. You do not own the copyright 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 08:27, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You can have a lot more fun!

[edit]

Following files in AFC submissions to Commons almost always shows that they are copyvios in some way. It's not only more fun, but very useful to nuke them, and also see what other files an uploader has uploaded "in error"

If you're very good(!) a Commons admin will let you have a bulk nomination tool, which makes it a lot easier, but I think deletion options exist in the left hand margin, and tineye and google lens searches are tabs at the head of the page. Happy to endorse an application for the bulk deletion tool. What you need is rights like I have there. 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 08:26, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Timtrent: I'm a bit shy on Commons, it's outside my comfort zone. I mostly go there to see an editor's contributions, as part of trying to figure out if they're a sock or UPE. But yes, I remember you mentioning before that there are better deletion tools available to those who are deemed worthy. I guess I ought to put in an application (unworthy as I no doubt am). Thanks for the nudge, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:32, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I started out shy, too. The best approach is to build up a track record nuking the easy ones. after a month or two it becomes second nature. And the admins there are excellent tutors and guides 🇺🇦 FiddleTimtrent FaddleTalk to me 🇺🇦 08:34, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
