About Happy Science article

Dear Bonadea, Thank you for your contributions.

You claim that ‘Happy Science is widely criticized as a cult’ at the beginning in the article. However, I think it is a slightly exaggerated expression, because the circulation of these references is less than 0.5% population in each countries as follows. On the viewpoint of circulation, it’s not ‘widely’. So it need not to be described at the beginning, and the expression at the begging is misleading for many readers. I was wondering if you could replace it with another expression or delete it based on the following investigation.

To save space on the page, I am collapsing the numbers you give above, but they are easily acessible by clicking "show" in the box.
Thank you very much for opening a discussion instead of just deleting the word. A few points here. The word "widely" does not originate with me, I have just restored it several times over the past several months when the article, sadly, has been vandalised by people who seem to wish to remove sourced criticism of the organisation (I know that is an odd thing for anyone to do in an encyclopedia, but it does happen). It is not I who claim it, the claim is based on several different reliable sources. Secondly, the numbers you present above are a clear-cut example of original research, which we can never use, and in addition, circulation figures are not a good measure of reliability - the most prominent example being the Daily Mail which has a large circulation but is not considered a reliable source on Wikipedia. One reason why circulation figures are unreliable is that they sometimes include online circulation, and sometimes not. This is not an invitation for you to provide sources for the figures, though - it would still be original research. The fact that is missing from your reasoning above is that it is very difficult to find reliable, independent sources that do not claim that HS is a cult (even if that exact term is not used). If the larger papers haven't discussed HS, it's because it is a marginal religious movement, not because the cult claim is inappropriate.
You also employ a specific and narrow interpretation of "widely". The word can equally well refer to the case that media in Japan, Uganda, Australia, the UK, and the US have all used the term "cult". In the interest of neutrality, Wikipedia uses the phrasing currently in the article, instead of simply calling the movement "a cult"; the encyclopedia has to be neutral, and so the phrase "widely critizised as" is used instead. --bonadea contributions talk 09:21, 2 December 2017 (UTC)

Dear Bonadea, thank you for your quick response and a polite answer. I have understood Circulation and reliability. Follow your precious advice, I've found some independent widely sources that are indirect evidence 'HS is not a cult'. For example, introduction of HS (Fox TV, US), HS'lecture live (10 or more stations including national broadcasts and a lot press reported about it), HS's book introduction and so on. Because they treat HS favorably, they are indirect evidence about it. From the perspective of neutrality, not the purpose of publicity, I think we should add such sources. May I add some describes in Controversy Section? Or Is it better for us to discuss a little more? Thank you.Rithtree (talk) 14:44, 6 December 2017 (UTC)

Sir please tell me the steps so that i can follow thank you sir. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Majaz- Ae Gham-e-Dil Kya Karun (talkcontribs) 11:27, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

@Majaz- Ae Gham-e-Dil Kya Karun: Thank you for your message. I suggest that you start by reading - carefully - the advice you were given at Wikipedia:Teahouse#Majaz- Ae Gham-e-Dil Kya Karun. ColinFine gave you some very specific step-by-step instructions there. Also make sure that you have read Wikipedia:Your first article, as was also suggested to you in that section. You can also simply wait for your draft to be reviewed (well, you will have to do that in any case) and see what the reviewer says. But since the draft is in fact not well-sourced at all, it would be better if you worked on it, and then perhaps it will be approved for mainspace when it is reviewed. To improve it, again, read the information given to you at the Teahouse. Thank you. --bonadea contributions talk 11:33, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

unhelpful

why delete the whole section on field spaniels when you dont like one of the references. The description of the dog, its origination and colours are wrong. I am assuming you dont like the fact that the field cockers are referencing this, but it is a new issue, new slang, and causing a real confusion. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kriswarry (talkcontribs) 13:54, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

Please use the article's talk page to discuss this. Splitting discussions into several different parts means that most of the participants won't be able to see most of it. I have already written an explanation on the talk page of exactly what is the problem with the edit I reverted (well, some of the issues, anyway.) If you read that, you'll get answers to your question above. --bonadea contributions talk 13:59, 5 December 2017 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Bonadea, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Backlog update:

  • The new page backlog is currently at 12713 pages. Please consider reviewing even just a few pages each day! If everyone helps out, it will really put a dent in the backlog.
  • Currently the backlog stretches back to March and some pages in the backlog have passed the 90 day Google index point. Please consider reviewing some of them!

Outreach and Invitations:

  • If you know other editors with a good understanding of Wikipedia policy, invite them to join NPP by dropping the invitation template on their talk page with: {{subst:NPR invite}}. Adding more qualified reviewers will help with keeping the backlog manageable.

New Year New Page Review Drive

  • A backlog drive is planned for the start of the year, beginning on January 1st and running until the end of the month. Unique prizes will be given in tiers for both the total number of reviews made, as well as the longest 'streak' maintained.
  • Note: quality reviewing is extremely important, please do not sacrifice quality for quantity.

General project update:

  • ACTRIAL has resulted in a significant increase in the quality of new submissions, with noticeably fewer CSD, PROD, and BLPPROD candidates in the new page feed. However, the majority of the backlog still dates back to before ACTRIAL started, so consider reviewing articles from the middle or back of the backlog.
  • The NPP Browser can help you quickly find articles with topics that you prefer to review from within the backlog.
  • To keep up with the latest conversation on New Pages Patrol or to ask questions, you can go to Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers and add it to your watchlist.

Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays
From Stave one of Dickens A Christmas Carol

Old Marley was as dead as a door-nail. Mind! I don’t mean to say that I know, of my own knowledge, what there is particularly dead about a door-nail. I might have been inclined, myself, to regard a coffin-nail as the deadest piece of ironmongery in the trade. But the wisdom of our ancestors is in the simile; and my unhallowed hands shall not disturb it, or the Country’s done for. You will therefore permit me to repeat, emphatically, that Marley was as dead as a door-nail.

So you see even Charles was looking for a reliable source :-) Thank you for your contributions to the 'pedia. ~ MarnetteD|Talk 00:28, 24 December 2017 (UTC)

New Years new page backlog drive

Hello Bonadea, thank you for your efforts reviewing new pages!

Announcing the NPP New Year Backlog Drive!

We have done amazing work so far in December to reduce the New Pages Feed backlog by over 3000 articles! Now is the time to capitalise on our momentum and help eliminate the backlog!

The backlog drive will begin on January 1st and run until January 29th. Prize tiers and other info can be found HERE.

Awards will be given in tiers in two categories:

  • The total number of reviews completed for the month.
  • The minimum weekly total maintained for all four weeks of the backlog drive.

NOTE: It is extremely important that we focus on quality reviewing. Despite our goal of reducing the backlog as much as possible, please do not rush while reviewing.

Request for confirmation of the page.

Thank you for your edits. I request you please have a review on the page Jatin Wahane < ref>https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jatin_Wahane</ref>. Ken Moss Jr (talk) 23:26, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

I have reviewed it the article, and its sources. There is one paper published by Wahane, and that is a primary source that can't be used to show anything except that he's had that one paper published. There is a speakersbase.com listing, which is also a primary source and doesn't show anything at all. And finally there is a trivial mention of his name in a newspaper article that's not about him. What is needed is several independent reliable sources that write about him in depth, and the article has no such source. --bonadea contributions talk 23:35, 6 January 2018 (UTC)

Clarence Article Deletion

Greetings Bonadea,

I am having a hard time writing my article to comply within Wikipedia's guidelines. I've accomplished work with very notable people, and my article keeps getting flagged and removed. Can you give me suggestions on how to give information about myself without having the page deleted? Do you all supply writers to ensure information is written correctly?

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clarence McNair (talkcontribs) 23:31, 7 January 2018 (UTC)


Hi Bonadea,

In this talk page, I have included the information to insert for the Clarence McNair page. Can you review for submission and contest the deletion of this page please and thank you!

Why do you say that? "Male humans" is the term used in the source, and it is a more specific term than "men". There is nothing incorrect about it, so what makes you think it is wrong? --bonadea contributions talk 09:10, 28 January 2018 (UTC)

Mirraw

Mirraw is not a "run of the mill" company - it is one of the biggest online retailers in the world's fastest growing online retail market (india) and to this day is a bootstrapped company (another "novel" aspect about Mirraw - to have raised funding would have made them "run of the mill"). The sources are not all Press Releases either - the first 3 references are absolutely bonafide from some of India's biggest media companies, and the last one, though not from a "media" source (but still not a press release) - it is a website that is run by Franchise owners association of India and they feature their artices about promising companies. Its not a news-media socurce in the traditional sense but it is no press release either. user:Subho2017

Prabhloch Singh and Middle Finger Protests

Thank you for putting your views across for Prabhloch Singh article. I agree with you that if convinced enough to be deleted, it should be merged with and redirected to Middle Finger Protests. However, the same user has also nominated middle finger protests article to be deleted as well. Could you kindly post your views on Middle Finger Protests page as well? The user who nominated unfortunately seems to be not being fair with the nomination.ThisMr (talk) 13:43, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

@ThisMr: thanks for your message. I had actually posted there, too, but it took a little while because I wanted to have a second look at the sources first. I don't think the nominator has any bad intentions, I just don't agree with the nomination. It can be hard to evaluate Indian sources, because a lot of what is published in even reputable newspapers is really press releases from organisations, but in this case I don't think that's the case. --bonadea contributions talk 13:58, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

New Page Reviewer Newsletter

Hello Bonadea, thank you for your efforts in reviewing new pages!
The NPP backlog at the end of the drive with the number of unreviewed articles by creation date. Red is older than 90 days, orange is between 90 and 30 days old, and green is younger than 30 days.

Backlog update:

  • The new page backlog is currently at 3819 unreviewed articles, with a further 6660 unreviewed redirects.
  • We are very close to eliminating the backlog completely; please help by reviewing a few extra articles each day!

New Year Backlog Drive results:

  • We made massive progress during the recent four weeks of the NPP Backlog Drive, during which the backlog reduced by nearly six thousand articles and the length of the backlog by almost 3 months!

General project update:

  • ACTRIAL will end it's initial phase on the 14th of March. Our goal is to reduce the backlog significantly below the 90 day index point by the 14th of March. Please consider helping with this goal by reviewing a few additional pages a day.
  • Reviewing redirects is an important and necessary part of New Page Patrol. Please read the guideline on appropriate redirects for advice on reviewing redirects. Inappropriate redirects can be re-targeted or nominated for deletion at RfD.

About my changes about page Sambhaji

Hello,

I have added those changes with a reference to hitorical book Sambhaji by Vishwas Patil.

Sambhaji has been made a controversial figure by wrong people majorly due to his conflicts with Shivaji's ministers viz. Annaji Datto. On Marathi wikipedia page about Sambhaji, these changes are taken care of but not in English page.

I would like to add more info on Sambhaji.

Also the same wrong information is there on page Shivaji Maharaj. Please restore my contribution.

Awaiting your reply. Vikram Vikram-dattu (talk) 18:49, 17 February 2018 (UTC)

@Vikram-dattu: As I mentined on your user talk page, you need to start a discussion on the article's talk page, Talk:Sambhaji, and get consensus in favour of your proposed changes. This has to happen before you restore the changes - don't remove existing content unless you have a clear consensus in favour of that. Note that you need reliable sources to back up your claims; the novel by Patil does not meet those criteria. Each Wikipedia project in different languages is a separate encyclopedia with a separate community and separate guidelines. That Marathi Wikipedia has different information is thus not in itself a reason to change the info here. Regards, --bonadea contributions talk 18:54, 17 February 2018 (UTC)

@Zara st: The reason is provided here. There is unfortunately no sign in the article that the person (who is yourself, I believe?) meets Wikipedia's definition of notability. Very few people meet those requirements, so that's not a slight on you or your work, it just means that you are not a suitable topic for an encyclopedia article.

New Page Review Newsletter No.10

Hello Bonadea, thank you for your work reviewing New Pages!

ACTRIAL:

  • ACTRIAL's six month experiment restricting new page creation to (auto)confirmed users ended on 14 March. As expected, a greatly increased number of unsuitable articles and candidates for deletion are showing up in the feed again, and the backlog has since increased already by ~30%. Please consider reviewing a few extra articles each day.

Paid editing

  • Now that ACTRIAL is inoperative pending discussion, please be sure to look for tell-tale signs of undisclosed paid editing. Contact the creator if appropriate, and submit the issue to WP:COIN if necessary.

Subject-specific notability guidelines

Nominate competent users for Autopatrolled

  • While patrolling articles, if you find an editor that is particularly competent at creating quality new articles, and that user has created more than 25 articles (rather than stubs), consider nominating them for the 'Autopatrolled' user right HERE.

News

  • The next issue Wikipedia's newspaper The Signpost has now been published after a long delay. There are some articles in it, including ACTRIAL wrap-up that will be of special interest to New Page Reviewers. Don't hesitate to contribute to the comments sections.

My Satte Pe Satta edit

Hello Bonadea, I am Indiancinemafan. I respect your point of view that I should not add personal view but the songs of Satte Pe Satta are considered to be famous in general in India. There are plenty of other film articles that claim a movie’s soundtrack was a major success and my comment was no different. Indiancinemafan (talk) 04:51, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi Indiancinemafan, and thanks for your message. It's not my point of view that's relevant here, but the Wikipedia policy about neutrality. This edit added POV/promotional phrasing saying that the film "has very melodious songs" and talks about "eerie backgroun[d] music" and a "negative character" (I understand that it is common in Indian cinema to talk about villains as "negative characters" but to people outside that context it sounds like an insult against the actor). That's all opinion, which should never be part of a Wikipedia article. If the music has gained significant recognition, a neutrally-worded sentence about this (not mentioning all the songs) could be added with a reliable source. This is not a reliable source, I'm afraid, and in any case it doesn't support the claim that the music is particularly noteworthy. Yes, there are many articles about movies, not only Indian movies, that contain personal opinions by fans. Those should all be cleaned up, but it is a huge task. :-) Cheers, --bonadea contributions talk 12:01, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

PRK Audio

Bonadea I wanted to inform you that I have removed the redirect to Puneeth Rajkumar of the page PRK Audio. I think it satisfies the Wikipedia:Notability criteria. So I have reverted your edit. If you have change in opinion please share. -- Thank you TheUnbeatable (talk) 06:04, 13 April 2018 (UTC)

My Amitabh Bachchan edit

Dear Bonadea, My sources supported the humanitarian work that I said Amitabh Bachchan did. On Shahrukh Khan's Wikipedia his humanitarian causes are listed in his third lead paragraph. If you truly want to be fair, remove that part of his paragraph too. If not then allow me to put my info for Amitabh Bachchan. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Indiancinemafan (talkcontribs) 18:03, 16 April 2018 (UTC)

Possible sock

Hello Bonadea, can you please take a look at this user who was registered a couple of days after Pappig (talk · contribs) (a sockpuppet of عثمان خلیل) and editing in the same area. You seem to have enough knowledge about their behaviour so bringing it to your attention and also pining Fitindia who filled the SPI. Thank you GSS (talk|c|em) 08:11, 20 April 2018 (UTC)

@GSS: Sorry for late reply. Thanks - my recollection was a bit faint but I remember this editor, now. I'll have a look. --bonadea contributions talk 14:50, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

The provided content that i removed and you restored is totally false and against the religous sentiments of the vast muslim population. I ask you humbly to please the content because its a fabricated story . Umea2222 (talk) 07:23, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

@Umea2222: Wikipedia reports what reliable sources have to say about a subject, and the content you removed had multiple sources. --bonadea contributions talk 07:52, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

Oops. Thanks. (Not that it matters much which troll it is, but I did wonder a little about the edit summaries which were not typical for the one I thought it was, so I appreciate the heads-up.) --bonadea contributions talk 09:35, 22 April 2018 (UTC)

Hi Bonadea,

The information about the page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Mazhavaraayas was wrongly depicted in that page need to be deleted or else modified since it links with

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gandaraditya  chola king.

Or Else unlink that data from https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Gandaraditya&action=edit&section=4 where it says she belong to malavarayars which is correct but the linking is wring here

Queen and heir Gandaraditya's queen was Madevadigalar alias Sembiyan Madeviyar who bore him a son called Madhurantaka Uttama Chola. This must have been very late in his life.[5][6] At the time of Gandaraditya’s death (c. 956 CE), Uttama Chola must have been a young boy, as he was set aside in the order of succession and Arinjaya took over the Chola crown.[7] Sembiyan Madeviyar survived her husband for a long time. She seems to have been a pious lady as she figures in several inscriptions, making donations to various temples. She died c. 1001 CE during Rajaraja’s reign.[8] She was the daughter of Malavarayar chieftain and is described thus in inscriptions.[9] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bornspy (talkcontribs) 05:26, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

@Bornspy: Thanks for your message. I see you took care of the unlinking already. --bonadea contributions talk 05:40, 25 April 2018 (UTC)

@Habibkaka07: all information in Wikipedia articles has to be supported by reliable sources. The reference you provided is not a reliable source for Wikipedia, and the information you gave is not supported anywhere. Wikipedia can't make vague and general statements like "lots of people earn money from this" unless there is actual well-researched data showing it. --bonadea contributions talk 10:53, 26 April 2018 (UTC)
