Speedy removal

edit

A tag has been placed on Phileas, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Sting_au | Talk 23:25, 19 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

I'm in the progress of translating an dutch article. So it needs to be proofreaded and translated and proofreaded. If it deleted it can not be proofreaded. The sources are placed, maybe I should replace it in whole to the german or the simple english pages. I don't care. Let some one else do the cleaning up and filling the holes. If the english are not do it, the dutch people are going to do it. Carsrac (talk) 00:22, 20 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

In reply to the message you left on my talk page....I placed the speedy delete template on your article mainly because it looks like nonesense to me. This may be due to use of poor English? An article on the English Wikipedia should be understandable by English speaking people. Perhaps a better translation of the original article source (which you also need to reference) is in order. In the mean time I'll leave the deletion tag there for an Admin to decide on. Sting_au | Talk 00:10, 20 November 2007 (UTC)Reply
    • I don't think you did read the article in the present form. Yes, for one second it was nosense, but that is the way I work. If you don't like it. Fine, but a work in progress is a work in progress. And if you don't understand it, please learn dutch and then we can discuss it in nobel language. Carsrac (talk) 00:26, 20 November 2007 (UTC)Reply

I have discussed the speedy delete with the Admin who removed it. Have now placed cleanup, unreferenced and wikify tags on your article. That way editors who may be able to assist with this article can find it easier. Enjoy your editing on Wikipedia and I'm sure the article will eventually read much better.

The bot removed a bunch of correct interwiki links from 0 (number). It made a similar edit to another article before, so please fix this. Thanks --Oxymoron83 22:17, 7 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Both are manual controlled actions. With 0 (number) I have made the two lists one with the word Zero or its translations of that word. And 1 with only the number. The problem is that in some translation there is only one article about zero and the number 0 and in others there are two.

With Jezus of Nazareth and Jezus Christus. In some translation there is made a difference between holy being Christus and the human Jezus. Carsrac (talk) 17:26, 11 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

CarsracBot - a suggestion

edit

Hello - I came across edit by the bot and thought "well, if I can spot that the severe lack of interwikis is likely to have been caused by vandalism, could the bot have not not flagged it?". Hence this suggestion: could the bot add to a warning page if it ever adds more than a given number of interwiki links? That page could then be watched so that editors such as myself could double-check edits for prior vandalism. Just a thought... Stephenb (Talk) 09:35, 15 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

  • Thanks for the suggestion, but it is not the way the bot works. And I have not the permission to change warning pages or generate those pages. My bot does interwiki and may only do interwiki. Removing iw vandalisme is something bots can very good counter. And it is very quickly repaired. Carsrac (talk) 19:19, 17 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

French wiki : framework.net and Microsoft.net

edit

Hello, I'm Anne97432 from French wiki. I have have tried to explain your concerns to the community but found little sympathy for your suggestion of a merge. The idea seems to be that the philosophy of the two articles is too different and that the contents of either are so fully developped that a merge (everyone seems to think framework.net would be subsumed into microsoft.net) would result into a huge, bloated article and that things are fine as they are. If there are any further arguments you would like me to experiment with, please answer on the French wiki. I seldom check this one. --Anne97432 (talk) 15:59, 3 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion of Frances Y. Slanger

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Frances Y. Slanger requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

CarsracBot issue

edit

Hi Carsrac, recently CarsracBot edited several pages of the Ada Programming wikibook. It removed some obsolete interwikis (e.g. [2]), and that's great. However, it also moved valid interwikis out from a 'noinclude' section to the bottom of the page (e.g. [3] [4] [5] ...).

Placing the interwikis within a 'noinclude' section was intended because wikibooks usually have a printable version which includes all chapters, so otherwise all the interwikis for each page will be shown in this printable version. I'll be forced to revert those edits made by your bot to avoid this problem. Please, change the behavior of your bot so it doesn't move the interwikis out of those noinclude sections. Cheers, —surueña 11:24, 18 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

I will correct this unwanted behaviour by hand. The problem what that is first removed the iw and after that added the iw, but the bot is programmed that iw should allways be the last line. I will try if some is willing to change this behaviour in last line except if the last line is the /noinclude tag Carsrac (talk) 22:14, 23 October 2009 (UTC)Reply

Caroline Kaart moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Caroline Kaart, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I have nominated it for deleting as this article is a translation of the Dutch article that is wel sourced. It is enough that there is a dutch article about this person. Thanks for the cold welcome of this translation. Google translate is good enough so I do not need to make my own translation. Carsrac (talk) 08:11, 21 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Rob Slotemaker's date of birth

edit

Hi Carsrac. I reverted your change to Rob Slotemaker's date of birth because you did not provide a reliable source to support the change. Numerous sources including historicracing.com and motorsportmemorial.org specify his date of birth as the 13th of June. DH85868993 (talk) 02:28, 20 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
