Hello, your speedy deletion of an article I created is mentioned here:
You are personally misapplying and/or enforcing policies which punishes good faith editors. In my experience, Speedy deletion of copyrighted material is almost always brought to the attention of administrators by overzealous misguided editors who are ignorant of copyright law.

- I'm confused. What does this have to do with me? Jinkinson talk to me 12:50, 22 May 2014 (UTC)
Dear Mr. Jinkinson: You deleted an article (Eurhytmy) wich is a new scientific concept developed by a group of researcher from CEFCUL (http://cfcul.fc.ul.pt/) lead by J. Croca (http://cfcul.fc.ul.pt/equipa/jcroca.php) an awarded Physicist (Galileo-Santilli Prize 2008). The same article in Portuguese was deleted buy an English reviewer and I thought that it was a language issue. You said that this article was an obvious invention. Well, I am not sure what do you mean by invention. Maybe you are right, since this concept didn't exist before our work. However, we would like to see it labelled as a discovery rather that invention. Anyway, please, check this up, with a little more time, and I am sure that you will find that this is a real article, resulting from a scientific research process. My contact is ricsal@uab.pt .Thank you so much for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ricsal2000 (talk • contribs) 08:49, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
- Oh I see what you mean. Technically, as I am not an admin, I not only didn't delete that article, I couldn't have--all I did was tag it for speedy deletion. You should contact User:NawlinWiki, the admin who deleted it, if you want to know why he did so. Jinkinson talk to me 12:57, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.
If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Sleeping in the Aviary (2)}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save page", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. JMHamo (talk) 15:55, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

I saw that you nominated Ronin Ro for speedy deletion. I completley can understand that. But could you maybe help me improve it so its not deleted? Thanks! CFP2016 (talk) 16:41, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
- Maybe--if you want it to be kept, you should add some independent reliable sources, as opposed to Amazon.com, for example, which has pages about almost every author. I suggest this as an example of such a source. Also, consider adding the "Under construction" template to the page so people won't mark it for speedy deletion and you can expand it as I said above. Jinkinson talk to me 16:44, 11 June 2014 (UTC)
Please do not tag articles using either criterion until at least 10 minutes have elapsed since creation, e.g., Canada Waterworks. You've been asked not to do this before (by me at least).--Bbb23 (talk) 14:41, 13 June 2014 (UTC)
Hi Jinkinson. I was looking that new article the same time you were - it looks like the user may have intended this for Simple Wiki, hence the informal tone. There already is an article here on this war at Aceh War, which the author of this article even references, so that's probably the case. I've asked him on his talk about that, so if we can wait a bit for his answer before deleting it, that would be more friendly to him. Regards, Electric Wombat (talk) 14:56, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
- Sure, sounds like a good idea. In the meantime, I think one of us should redirect War of Aceh to Aceh War while he figures out how to create that page on Simple Wikipedia as he had intended. Jinkinson talk to me 15:02, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
- Done, and left the user a note on how to get the original text, in case he's not familiar with the History. Done here, I think. Electric Wombat (talk) 15:17, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

It's generally not considered good form to list an RfA on someone else's behalf if they haven't given you permission to do so. Airplane54 is obviously not ready for adminship, given that he has less than two months' editing experience and fewer than a hundred edits to his name; you do him no favors by putting up his grossly premature self-nomination instead of offering him a kind word of advice. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 22:22, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
It's also very problematic that you did all this – moving the draft RfA from userspace to the Wikipedia namespace, and then trying to transclude the RfA – without notifying Airplane54 that you had done so, or making any attempt whatsoever to contact him. TenOfAllTrades(talk) 22:27, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
- Right. I was trying to help because I thought I knew a misplaced RFA when I saw one, and that he would appreciate it if I moved it into the right namespace for him. I also thought I didn't necessarily have to be the one to close his RFA early and explain to him how much more experience he needs before he can have any hope of passing. Thank you for explaining how this is actually supposed to work, though. Jinkinson talk to me 22:29, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
I just wanted to say thanks for making it out to the 2014 Atlanta Wiknic. I think it was our best one yet, and I hope to see you again at future events. I was able to make a rough draft of the article time lapse project we discussed. I put it on YouTube here. I used Mozart, since it was the first featured article of the day back in 2004. Did you happen to catch Juan's username? I thought it had "mega" in it or something, but I don't see him on the event sign up page. I'd like to follow up with him too, and since he first suggested making a video, he'd probably be interested in seeing the rough draft.

Thanks for uploading File:Attica album cover.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.

Hi- thanks for the message. I'll get to this over the next few days. J Milburn (talk) 17:12, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
Hi Jinkinson- I'm afraid the article still looks a little below the bar for GA purposes. Compare it to All Hands on the Bad One, a GA punk rock album which, like this one, seemed to attract considerable critical acclaim. I reviewed that article a few months ago. J Milburn (talk) 18:45, 15 July 2014 (UTC)
- The lead image still doesn't look right, which really affects the first impression of the article. You may also want to use {{Album fur}} in the future (though this particular cover is probably PD, as per {{PD-text}}).
- Personnel section is still lacking. Allmusic mentions at least one other person. See how the example article above handles the credits section for inspiration.
- The reception section is better, but it surely could be expanded further. The same for most other sections- everything still feels a little brief for GAC. For instance, the background section doesn't mention any album deals/signings, nor does it mention that this isn't the band's first album.
- Do you perhaps have access to any interviews with the band members about this album? They can be very useful sources for background information.
The article Diesel Only Records has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- Unremarkable business that fails to meenotability guidelines. citations provided mention the business in passing and are about the artists. This label does not inherit the notability of its artists.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Who exactly is Nnimrodd and what did he do to get banned from the whole wiki community? RWCasinoKid (talk) 03:19, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what he did to get banned but I think that was the account of Nimrod Kamer. Jinkinson talk to me 11:15, 23 August 2014 (UTC)
- And I thought there was only the Biblical Nimrod ;) RWCasinoKid (talk) 08:03, 24 August 2014 (UTC)
- I'd surmise Paul Maskfire (talk · contribs) picked us because of this thread. He got blocked, though and looking at the history of this talk page, it's not hard to see why. RWCasinoKid (talk) 01:08, 25 August 2014 (UTC)

Why did you delete the ODataHQ page? I was working on it Erjjones (talk) 13:21, 26 August 2014 (UTC)Erjjones
- I did not delete that page, but I did mark it for speedy deletion, after which User:Bbb23 deleted it. If you want to know why he did so, ask him on his talk page; I suspect it was because there were no reliable sources cited in the article and encourage you to only recreate the page if you can find multiple such sources. Jinkinson talk to me 14:20, 26 August 2014 (UTC)
Hi I do not want my wiki page (The Celestial hunt) to be deleted. Please help me and tell me fixes about the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vis says (talk • contribs) 04:03, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
- Well, the main problem is that it needs more independent reliable sources; press releases and reviews by readers won't cut it. See WP:RS and WP:NBOOK. Jinkinson talk to me 11:21, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for providing the date of birth. I looked but couldn't locate it online. Yours, Quis separabit? 21:54, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
Hello, Jinkinson. Back in June, you created a new section of the COI editing of Wikipedia article, "2014 statement by 11 PR firms"; it's a matter of interest to me because I have been the leader of this effort, as both a Wikipedian and business consultant. Someone pointed it out to me recently, taking issue with the second sentence: "The statement therefore implicitly acknowledged that these firms had not always done so, but instead had edited Wikipedia pages about their clients to remove negative information from them." I would submit that the better summary of the statement would be that PR firms had for the first time adopted a formal position supporting Wikipedia's rules and pledging to communicate this widely throughout the industry.
To be sure, the current version does reflect a conclusion drawn by the Business Insider story cited. As a group, we take issue with this: no doubt some agencies have done so, but the statement is intended to acknowledge that the practice exists, not that any signatory agency is saying that they had specifically done so. In fact, one of my partners in leading this effort responded to this effect in the comments of the BI story, however the writer has not acknowledged this.
Given this evidence that BI is less than attuned to "fact-checking and accuracy" (I'm thinking of WP:RELIABLE), not to mention Wikipedia's preference for facts over opinions (I'm thinking partly about WP:ASSERT) and the fact that BI tends to be rather sensational compared to sources like PR Week and Wall Street Journal, which covered it in a more straightforward manner, I figured I would ask to see if you would be willing to consider writing it differently using one of these sources. I haven't written an alternative, thinking you may wish to take another crack at it, but if you'd like me to suggest an alternative version, I'd be happy to do so. Thanks for your time, WWB (talk) 14:04, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
- I have reworded the relevant sentence a bit to clarify that it might not have been the signatory firms who violated Wikipedia's policies; if you want me to change the reference too, I will do that as well. Jinkinson talk to me 21:59, 28 August 2014 (UTC)
Hello, I'm Narutolovehinata5. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Jimmy Wales, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

| On 2 September 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Ice Bucket Challenge, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that due to the viral meme "the Ice Bucket Challenge" (example pictured), the ALS Association has received over US$100 million in donations since July 29, 2014? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Ice Bucket Challenge. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

In regards to your reversion of my edit. I dug a bit deeper. Well basically your revision is more correct than mine, but not exactly correct.
There was the first peer review. Went through that and was published. Then due to outside pressure, a very rare second peer review. Went through that no problem. Then the publisher, again under pressure after the post hoc reviews, retracted the study. Then the paper was submitted to a new publisher. (4 journals volunteered to republish but ESE was chosen due to it being open access) That publisher hired 3 "reviewers" to review what had already been peer reviewed twice and passed. Those three "reviewers" basically were only looking for fraud though, since the paper had already been peer reviewed twice and they found no fraud or significant changes, they recommended that there was no need for a full formal "peer review" by a third team.
So in a way both versions of the story are correct, yet both are a bit slanted to produce bias. ESE did "review" as they do peer review all the studies they publish. But the 3 member review they did was not exactly what would be considered a formal "peer review" in the traditional sense, due to the unique circumstances. That 3rd review was more checking to see if the first two reviews was sufficient or if Seralini had fudged any raw data or any changes like that in the new version submitted for republishing. They found that the original peer reviews were competent, and no need to go through the full formal process again.
I have no axe to grind here though. Since technically the third review was not exactly a "peer review" in the traditional meaning, the version you produced is closer to the truth. So I am going to leave that alone. The one thing the article needs though is an update that includes this information. Conflicts of interests, confidentiality and censorship in health risk assessment: the example of an herbicide and a GMO http://www.enveurope.com/content/26/1/13 Which was published as commentary at the same time as the republishing. I'll let you add that though. I don't want to start an edit war on an obviously controversial page.Redddbaron (talk) 10:34, 5 September 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for adding a category to that Philosophia (journal) stub. I only found it by accident when I started working on an article for philoSOPHIA. Do you know much about how to handle problems with lowercase title publications? Lightbreather (talk) 19:25, 8 September 2014 (UTC)

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Sockpuppet investigations. Since you had some involvement with the Sockpuppet investigations redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so.

I do not want Charge(game) to be deleted.I shall improve my article if that is what has to be done.I erased the two sources that is unacceptable.Please help me to stop this page being deleted.
- OK, so what you need to do is find independent, reliable sources that discuss the game in depth and add them to the article. If you can find such sources and add a substantial number of them, I (or maybe someone else) will remove the prod tag. Jinkinson talk to me 01:35, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
Thank you very much.
I do not want this article to be deleted https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadeem_Bhabha . I would like to improve it and trying to improve it. Please help me to improve the article by suggesting what to remove from the previous information.
thanks Nadeembahoo (talk) 15:35, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
- You need to find independent reliable sources that discuss Nadeem Bhabha in detail. Also, if you are Nadeem Bhabha you probably shouldn't edit the page yourself, so instead, add links to these sources on the article's talk page and propose they be added to the article.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tangled Tales (album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bluegrass. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi Jinkinson: Thanks for your work in adding deletion sorting to AfD discussions. Just a note regarding Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Odense Boldklub squads: for articles that have lists of people, it's preferable to delete sort under "Lists of people", rather than "Lists" as you performed there. Just a heads up, and cheers. NorthAmerica1000 06:36, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

| Hi there. You nominated an article for evaluation against the good article criteria some time ago, but I noticed you have yet to review an article yourself. Although it's not mandatory, it would be helpful if every user who creates a nomination also reviewed at least one other article, as this would help clear the massive backlog. Reviewing someone else's article can also help you in the long run: every article reviewed brings yours one position closer to the top of the nominations list! If you worked on the article you nominated, chances are you're already familiar with the six good article criteria. It really isn't hard to review, and may take an experienced editor only a few hours to complete. If you have the time and would like to help, please click here, take a moment to figure out which article you'd like to review, then click on its (start review) button. Thank you for reading, and if you need assistance with your review at any point, please feel free to leave a message on my talk page and I'll respond to you as soon as I can. Homeostasis07 (talk) |
