Klook (company) moved to draftspace[edit]

Thanks for your contributions to Klook (company). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. BoraVoro (talk) 16:09, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Nomination of Alpha Group International for deletion[edit]

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Alpha Group International is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alpha Group International until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Fellows of the British Academy[edit]

Hi Signal Crayfish. Can I please (politely) suggest before you nominate further FBAs at AfD, that you consider holding off to give time for responses to your AfDs on Richard Gray and Anthony Guest? I strongly suspect that these people will be found notable, but, either way, there are a lot of short articles on FBAs which you could apply your logic to and further nominations could end up duplicating discussion and creating quite a time sink for me; if, of course, either are found to be worthy of deletion, then I welcome whatever you decide to do about other FBAs. Thanks, —17:40, 3 February 2024 (UTC). Noswall59 (talk) 17:40, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Noswall59 I nominated those pages for deletion because of something called the Pokemon test. It's clear to me that some of the British Academy fellows are notable but not all of them. Therefore, I am going to continue nominating the BLPs that aren't notable for deletion and if you have a problem with the nominations then take me to WP:ANI.Signal Crayfish (talk) 17:52, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. I disagree but you can do what you think is best -- it was just a polite request. —Noswall59 (talk) 18:03, 3 February 2024 (UTC).[reply]
Why do you feel that every member of the British Academy is notable?Signal Crayfish (talk) 18:04, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't necessarily agree that every member is notable purely on the basis that they were elected to the academy; I do recognise that every article on WP must be about a topic which has been discussed in secondary sources. What I know is that every single FBA I have come across (including all of those whose articles I have created) is notable because this is the most prestigious academic honour that can be given to a humanities or social sciences scholar in the UK -- itself home to one of the most respected higher education sectors in the world. What this means is that anyone elected to the FBA will have influenced their subject areas in often profound and important ways. This is basically the criteria for inclusion and has been for decades.
Every FBA I've written and read about has written multiple highly impactful books and articles, which have been the subject of considerable scholarly discussion and have indeed influenced scholarship. This means that there will be a great deal of discussion about their thoughts, findings and work -- and frequently about their lives too. Even if the articles I have created are not long or especially well-cited, they are there because the sources cited in them support facts -- like their professorships, FBA status, authorship of multiple books, etc -- which indicate quite plainly that they have contributed significantly to their field, and thus will have been discussed widely in academic literature and therefore deserve articles here. —Noswall59 (talk) 18:22, 3 February 2024 (UTC).[reply]

Please stop your bad nominations of academics who clearly meet our notability standards. If you do not stop on your own you may need to be blocked from making any further nominations. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:02, 3 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry David, I can see that my nominations were ill-informed. I will refrain from further nominations until I understand WP:ANYBIO better and do some community-service to atone for my mistake.Signal Crayfish (talk) 12:05, 4 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Signal Crayfish,

You are not an experienced enough editor to know when articles should be moved to Draft space. For one thing, an article shouldn't be draftified more than once and you moved this article to Draft space twice. A content creator has the right to object to draftification and move an article back to main space. Don't get into an edit war about this. For more guidance, read over WP:DRAFTIFY thoroughly but right now, I recommend that you stop doing any draftification until you have several more hundred edits to your account. Before passing judgment on other's work, you have to establish yourself as a good editor.

If you have questions about any of this, please bring them to the Teahouse. Thank you. Liz Read! Talk! 06:35, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Additionally, every time you draftify, you need to post a message informing the article creator, in this case User:BANEN24, what you have done and where the editor can find their article. There are several scripts that can do this for you if you spend some time and look into this or ask at the Teahouse. Liz Read! Talk! 06:38, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. I've warned them on their talk page. Signal Crayfish (talk) 11:31, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The page The RoomPlace has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This was done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it was a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.

Please do not recreate the material without addressing these concerns, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If you think this page should not have been deleted for this reason, you may contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you may open a discussion at Wikipedia:Deletion review.
