I am unable to make specific changes. Can you please help me in the draft and point which specific parts I need to change or add citations. As I believe most of the parts are self-explanatory that's why the article looks a bit empty. Please help me out. Thank you. Rohansahamusic (talk) 05:14, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rohansahamusic, there are fully paragraphs and sections that are not sourced. Moreso, writing about yourself is strongly discouraged. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 06:58, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I need a wikipedia page for my Spotify artist profile and also, the article would significantly help my internet presence as wikipedia is the go-to source for every web viewer. Please tell me if I'm unable to publish one for myself, how can somebody else make it? Who should I ask to make one for me? Rohansahamusic (talk) 07:03, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rohansahamusic, every Wikipedia page is created when the general notability guidelines are met. We do have a criteria for musicians but I don’t think that you’ve merit either. I do not know any one that can create one for you (and neither can I) because you are probably still new in the industry. So, I would encourage you to hold on till you’ve become notable in the future. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 07:19, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello User:Reading Beans,

I hope this message finds you well. I recently made several major changes to the Wikipedia page for Peller (comedian), and I would appreciate it if you could take the time to review them. I believe these edits improve the page's accuracy and comprehensiveness, but I would welcome your expertise and feedback on the revisions.

Additionally, if you make any further changes or reviews to the page, could you please ping me on the talk page? I'd be happy to address any concerns or suggestions.

Thank you for your time and consideration. I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Cameremote, my expertise is not actually needed to edit the page and neither do I have control over what you can edit. It’s a wiki; anyone can edit it as far as it is constructive. I’d take a look at the page now and revert anything I assume to be Unconstructive in good faith and would leave an explanation in the edit summary. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 17:58, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Cameremote, it does appear that there seems to be a possible conflict of interest: I’m looking at Peller’s TikTok where they’ve stated that they are not a comedian and you have started a move request to implement this. While having a COI is not prohibited, it is required that you disclose it. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 18:21, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I must ask that you desist from repeatedly suggesting that I have a conflict of interest (COI), as this is the fourth time you have raised the issue across different articles. My editing efforts are always made in good faith and with the intention of improving the Wikipedia environment. I have no connection to the subjects in question, and I urge you to refrain from making such claims without basis. Let’s work together constructively and focus on enhancing Wikipedia Cameremote (talk) Cameremote (talk) 18:30, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You mustn’t ask me of anything, it’s a simple yes or no as I provided the basis of asking the question. Don’t shift the goal post. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 20:18, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sir, I must once again ask that you refrain from making unnecessary accusations. I have noticed that my articles and creations about subjects outside of Nigeria tend to receive more positive recognition, largely because of the persistent negative criticism from Nigerian editors like yourself.

It is evident from a simple Google search that the subject of Peller (comedian) is not actually a comedian but a streamer. I conducted thorough research on the subject before publishing the article. If you are seeking a reason for my edits, please avoid defaulting to accusations of a COI, as this has become a recurring and baseless claim.

You mentioned checking the subject's TikTok, where they explicitly stated they are not a comedian. This should confirm their role as a streamer rather than fueling unnecessary allegations. Wikipedia reviews should remain impartial and free from bias.

I have clearly stated on my user page that I do not write on behalf of any organization or subject. All my contributions are voluntary, made in the spirit of fostering encyclopedic growth. Cameremote (talk) I came from a remote place Cameremote (talk) 21:16, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Reading Beans,

Thank you for your recent edits and comments. However, I would like to clarify that the changes made were thoroughly verified and sourced to improve the article. If edits like these continue to be reverted without detailed discussion, it might discourage constructive contributions and hinder the collaborative editing process. I hope we can find a more cooperative way to address any concerns and work together towards improving the Wikipedia.

Best regards Cameremote (talk) Cameremote (talk) 18:22, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

No, there were unverified informations there and some were sourced to unreliable sources. Wikipedia takes biography’s of living persons very serious and so every information has to be verifiable. You can take this discussion to the talk page. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 20:21, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You recently left a comment on the Skylineword draft depending on whether it needs context it can be improved or not it qualifies? 187.190.174.42 (talk) 12:53, 6 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Reading Beans,

Hoped you might be able to assist in review and/or approval for my first draft submission: Draft:Gerry Cardinale It's been two months waiting in review, I've tagged multiple groups, unsure if something is wrong. Saw you were recently active in afc approvals and so might be a good place to start.

Hi Yachtahead, thank you for your contributions but I’m not really knowledgeable in “entrepreneurs” and “investors” unless they are very clearcut or from my continent. So, I’m sorry I can’t help at this time but I’m pretty sure someone will get to it in no time. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 08:35, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Reading Beans. I just want to let you know that the picture you added to the Liang Wenfeng infobox is actually a namesake person who serves as the director of brand operation center (品牌运营中心总监) at Foshan Badis New Building Materials Co., Ltd. (佛山市巴迪斯新型建材有限公司), according to the 2021 Sohu News article. Yes, I understand that it is the original uploader made the mistake. No worries. Next time you might consider seeking corroboration from multiple reliable sources before adding a portrait image to a person's Wikipedia entry. Thank you.

Hi. When did this move Talk:Nick Gates#Talk:Nick Gates you didn't leave a hatnote at Nick Gates to Nick Gates (cyclist), which makes that latter page very difficult to find. Please take care when moving pages like this overwriting a 2-entry disambiguation page. You should also have put an Rcat on Nick Gates (American football).

Hey @Reading Beans, I've seen you have AfC accepted this article, but I think it does not align to WP:AT due to the honorific, that too seperated by a comma. Could you move it to a more appropriate title? John Scott is a dab, so you'd need to investigate a bit more on the disambiguators. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 14:07, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Bunnypranav, thank you for noticing the error. Someone has fixed this but as always, you can always fix it yourself. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 17:46, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I actually try to do it myself. I was actually in a bit of a hurry IRL, and noticed this, so thought to inform you. ~/Bunnypranav:<ping> 02:52, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It’s all good. Happy editing! Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 03:50, 15 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello RB. You happen to have accepted this article from draftspace via AfC. Becareful of hoaxes. This article was just recently deleted after the outcome of this discussion. This alone should have made you exercise extra caution before deciding to accept it. The claim that He is a Fellow of the Energy Institute, Fellow of the Chemical Society of Nigeria and Fellow of the Nigerian Academy of Science. is hoax. While this source says that "Bala Wunti is a fellow of the Nigerian Academy of Science and the Chemical Society of Nigeria", the part about him being a fellow of the NAS is deceptive because the Academy did not list him as a fellow or whatever. The source also is a redflag because we do not know where they got literally all their information from, no hyperlinks and what have you. This is also the only source in the entire web that mentions him being a fellow of the Academy; the Academy itself didn't say so. Subjects are not inherently notable for being a fellow or member of the CSN either. In a nutshell, this draft was not supposed to be approved at all in the first place. Also worth noting is that, the first two citations in this article are to pieces which were published January 5, 2025 and 10 February 2025. This again, is a regular red flag when doing AfC reviews, especially on subjects that were recently deleted after a consensus was established. This article also happened to be created by an account that registered on 29 January, seven days after the article was deleted via AfD. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 18:31, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces, I don’t understand what you mean by your warning. What do you mean by I should be careful of hoaxes? If you think my review was wrong, you can send these walls of text to the publication house to which the article was sourced to. Subject are inherently notable for being a fellow of CSN (or any Academy as outlined in NACADEMIC) and I would approve and would defend my stance anywhere, any day and I was honestly angry with the outcome of the previous AfD as the fact of him being a fellow of CSN and NAS was not put into account during the discussion.

Just to be clear, Asilvering, can you provide a copy of both article to make sure they align with the criteria stated in G4? I am unable to view both versions. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 18:58, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Reading Beans "Becareful of hoaxes" means, you should watch out when reviewing articles that were previously deleted via an AfD discussion, it wasn't meant to come off has a warning to you but a friendly advise, unless there's more to your reaction for taking this as a warning. You didn't address the concern I raised about the dubious claim of being a fellow of the NAS, well, it is what it is. For CSN and inherent notability for academics, it does not by any chance qualify under criterion #3, but if we should be lenient, I would only agree that we consider Honourary Fellows, just maybe, looking at https://chemsociety.org.ng/service/membership/ but not ordinary Fellows or Members or any other categories. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 19:21, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces, there’s no need of pinging me on my own talk page. This alone should have made you exercise extra caution before deciding to accept it. The claim that He is a Fellow of the Energy Institute, Fellow of the Chemical Society of Nigeriaand Fellow of the Nigerian Academy of Science. is hoax doesn’t sound so friendly to me rather it seems like you’re suggesting that I have a competency problem. I told you to send a mail to the publication house and ask them on how they got the information of Wunti being a fellow of NAS. And also, if you didn’t make your research, Wunti is a Honourary Fellow of the CSN^[1] and I also consider actual Fellows to be inherently notable and because you don’t agree does not make it so; you need to show reasons why it should not be so. My tone might come off as harsh and that’s because I’m usually angry when articles from Africa are being deleted while their counterparts in the West are being left; this ofcourse could not be your intentions. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 19:53, 21 February 2025 (UTC) Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 19:53, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Stop being ridiculously dismissive as it’s not addressing the concerns I have raised. You have refused to talk about why you believed he was a Fellow of NAS when he clearly isn’t as I stated. You are asking me to send my message to the the publication (the reply I expected from you) where as the burden is on you, the reviewer at AfC, to make sure whatever you’re accepting to mainspace, especially if it is going to be controversial, is at the very least verifiable. You also are mentioning that my message suggests that you have “competency problems”, which my original message didn’t imply. You’re making me to think that now with your attitude in form of replies to my message.

And No, Fellows whether honorary or not, of the CSN are not automatically considered per NACADEMIC #3, not in any way, it isn’t my opinion, it is a what the guideline says. You referenced a publication that mentions him and another person being given a Honorary Fellowship, but then, where around CSN can you verify that? When you get an evidence from the CSN that they’re indeed an Honorary Fellow, we’d have another topic, and even if there is, my stance on their notability still holds. Vanderwaalforces (talk) 20:15, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are being utterly ridiculous here; what do you mean I should verify what a source says with another sources? Did you actually read what you sent to me or are you finger happy? What is controv about any BLP? What controversial event did Wunti engage in? If you think I am incompetent, I think you should stop coming to my talk page.

Your opinion that a Fellow of the Chemistry Society of Nigeria (with the criterias listed on their website) is non-notable then I think your whole argument and thoughts on what constitutes to notability is nonsense. If you can provide a database where CSN lists their fellows, then I’ll be happy to check there myself. The truth is that I honestly do not care what your stance on their notability is as I am going to re-create this article when Asilvering has shown that the two versions where identical to merit a G4. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 20:30, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Reading Beans, I don't understand why you want to recreate an article that was deleted in a very recent deletion discussion? If you want to try to create the article and send it through AfC yourself I suppose I won't stop you, but I do think it would likely be a waste of your time. Regarding the G4, there was no new information that was not available to the participants in the previous AfD, which was only a month ago - you don't need a copy of the articles to see that.

Regarding the notability claims, CSN does not appear to be the kind of society where fellowship indicates a solid NPROF pass, see the guidelines here: [1]. It looks to me that this membership is to some degree almost automatic for anyone who is in the career for long enough, which is to say, it's a decent indication that someone might be notable, but not clear evidence that they are. The honourary fellowship is even less of an indication of notability, as far as I can tell. Being a fellow of the NAS, that I would absolutely argue is an NPROF pass, but he's not there: [2]. -- asilvering (talk) 21:41, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Asilvering, I think I have already stated my reason above, read above. I can’t retype. If we are arguing that it is the same content (as it should be to warrant a G4), I think that me, as a non-admin, should see it.

CSN isn’t sufficient but NAPA in US is. I love this explanations. We are indeed building a global encyclopaedia. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 21:50, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like, yes. NAPA is highly selective, in the same way that NAS is. Whereas CSN appears to be a normal professional society. I'm a member of a handful of societies like that, and I am not notable. Continuing to be a member in good standing of those societies for another ten years would mean that more people in my field know my name, sure, but it wouldn't mean that I was wiki-notable. Being FRS or FRHistS sure would, though. -- asilvering (talk) 22:01, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I’ll make a reply later. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 22:02, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Vanderwaalforces. Forgot to ping. Best, Reading Beans, Duke of Rivia 20:32, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
