Speakeasy Submission
Hello Sarah, Thank you for reviewing my submission for The Speakeasy with John Bateman & Matt Steffich. My submission was rejected due to "not adequately supported by reliable sources". I have since embedded a link to "The Speakeasy" at the beginning of the descriptive paragraph. The link leads to a program schedule on the broadcasting station CFSI which is recognized by wikipedia. Please advise me on further information I can add. Thanks for your time. TusketTusket (talk) 06:36, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
Death of Carole Waugh
Hi Sarah, you were the closing admin at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Death_of_Carole_Waugh. I've been contacted today by someone with a personal connection to the victim, who is appalled at our having an article based on press reports that are full of inaccuracies and erroneous speculation [1]. It's a fact of life that press reports on ephemeral cases like this often contain inaccuracies which, due to lack of enduring interest, are never corrected. Now, as I said in my comment on the talk page, by any interpretation of policy this article fails WP:NOT#NEWS by a mile. There is simply no evidence and no likelihood of enduring notability for this murder case (who will talk or write about it in ten years' time?), and the article is causing significant distress. Is there any chance I can get you to reconsider the close? Best, Andreas JN466 01:08, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hey Jayen! Man, I am really regretting ever getting mixed up with this article. I've had another user absolutely blow his lid about the keeping of the article. It was asked that discussion about it be brought up at Wikipedia:WikiProject Crime or the article talk page. I have to be honest, I don't feel comfortable getting that closely mixed up with the article from this point out. It'd probably be best to seek a different admin or something more higher level. I'm really sorry - I have a feeling if I make one decision or another all hell will break lose and I really don't feel comfortable (as a volunteer and as a Wikimedia Foundation Fellow) moving further with this. Sorry you have been put in this position. SarahStierch (talk) 02:06, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hi Sarah, Jayen’s wife here. The person who is suffering from this article being on WP is my friend, too. I’m seeing a lot of “I”s in your reply. How about you forget about your concerns for your Wikimedia career for a minute? Try and imagine what it would feel like if the victim was your sister and you couldn’t bear seeing her remembered this way, awful photograph and all? You assumed responsibility for the article by closing the Afd. Having followed some of the many good things you did for the project, I know you can do better than bow out of this now. Please reconsider. DracoE 10:41, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Sarah's due responsibility as an administrator in closing this AFD was done in accordance with policy in determining consensus. If you disagree with the consensus, the option is not to request the closing administrator to disregard consensus. At this point, I think Sarah has spoken her thoughts rather clearly, so I would recommend a review of the Guide to deletion, which provides a review of the policy process. You may also wish to submit a request for deletion review. Best regards, Cindy(talk to me) 11:29, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- AfDs are not decided on numbers; they are not a vote: a closing administrator has to weigh policy-based arguments. WP:NOTNEWSPAPER is fundamental site policy, and applies, in spades. Cindy, you need to understand that an attempt to resolve the situation with the closing admin must precede the initiation any deletion review. I have made more than 40,000 edits here for the past seven years, and I can wikilawyer with the best of them: you may indeed assume that I am well aware of policy. But this is not about wikilawyering; it is about being human. Policy is informed by and represents conscience in this project, and we have to act with conscience, for the benefit of both this project and our fellow human beings. JN466 11:50, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- You have attempted to resolve the "situation" with Sarah, yet she has not responded in the manner in which you desire. Beating a dead horse here or on the article's talkpage has now gone beyond par. The community has determined in the AFD that the WP:NOTNEWS argument did not hold water in this regard. You have other options here. I'm sure there are thousands of individuals that would prefer to see an article removed from the encyclopedia, but there are also many disappointed people worldwide. I don't consider it wisdom for both you and your wife to essentially brow beat the closing administrator's decision, based on emotional pleas from your friends. Respectfully, it is apparent that there may be a conflict of interest here that you may wish to consider. Again, there are other options available to you. I recommend that you choose one of them. Cindy(talk to me) 12:04, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- Cindy, I appreciate your loyalty to Sarah, but you and I wouldn't be here if our parents hadn't let their emotions get the better of them at one point in time. Your "dead horse" analogy seems especially cruel in this context. Here's hoping you'll never learn of the death of a loved one via email or google news, and then went on to find a sensationalist article about them on Wikipedia. Neither JN nor I got no conflict of interest here. This is about basic human decency. DracoE 14:29, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- You are right. It was highly insensitive of me to relate this discussion to a "dead horse". Please accept my apologies. As a personal note, I actually learned of the suicide of a sibling in a phone call and the murder-suicide of an uncle in an email. In a separate incidence, when my sister was murdered, it was reported in regional and statewide news that I was actually the one that died, rather than my sister. My closest friends mourned my death and it took heaven and earth to get the news media and law officials to correct their mistake. In professional interviews I have given, I have been misquoted and misrepresented in newspaper articles that have been picked up and repeated in international news without retraction. I have personally experienced all sides. (My book is forthcoming.) In regards to my personal emotions, they are not dependent on my parents. Human decency is defined and governed by community standards. I am able to separate my personal feelings and professional expertise from the guidelines and policies that govern our community. In doing so, I am able to carry out responsibilities in an objective manner. When colleagues have asked for my assistance in creating or deleting an article, my first question is one of notability and sourcing to support the same. Outside of that, my personal emotions matter little. I have to question when others disregard consensus (which does not equate to a vote), claiming a loyalty to a friend in an effort to alleviate suffering that an article on Wikipedia brings. At this point, there is an option to review any information that may conflict with that presented in the article. Once this information is made public, we can review independent and reliable sources that may provide balance to any outstanding questions, then add that new information to the article, while retaining or dismissing the current content. Other options include WP:DRV or a second AFD. There are constructive alternatives available, that none seem to have considered. We need to refocus. My loyalty lays not with Sarah, but with the community. We have a deletion process for a reason. The approach with Sarah has made. I simply recommend following the process to the next logical step. In all though, I sincerely apologize for equating the discussion to a dead horse. Thanks for calling me out on that. Your admonition here is not one I will soon forget. Cindy(talk to me) 17:09, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

- Hi everyone. My emails are blowing up with MediaWiki pings from this thread. I certainly understand how Draco and Jayron feel, but I disagree that the closure of the AfD gives me responsibility over the article. As an administrator, my role there was to read the consensus of the community involved in the discussion, and I think I discharged that duty. If you believe the closure was inappropriate, I would recommend deletion review. SarahStierch (talk) 17:15, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- If your first question is one of notability, then delete. There is no notability here, just a tragic death of an ordinary person, blown up out of all proportion by tabloid speculation (Libya, oil millionairess). Obviously the tabloid writers have to earn a living by exaggeration, but this is supposed to be an encyclopedia. Not that it really is, of course. See my note below. 86.173.254.83 (talk) 21:22, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
I am the person who got upset by this article. Carole was an old friend who I lost touch with a few years ago and I was very shocked to see this ghoulish article. She was not a 'millionairess' nor a 'businesswoman' and these touches have been added to give a patina of notability. She was just a secretary on a modest income whose late partner left her a little money to buy a flat in London. Including the photo is especially unkind - it was issued by the police for identifying a missing person - I don't believe it should have been uploaded to Wikipedia. If you had any human decency, you would remove that. As for the deletion process, I looked at the page and I see a small number of votes to keep, most of them from a small coterie of editors devoted to turning Wikipedia into 'Sensational crime daily' or 'True detective' or whatever. This is just a sad story of someone who was dear to a few people, including me, who was robbed violently. I don't see any 'process' or 'consensus' and I don't see any 'community'. 86.173.254.83 (talk) 21:19, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- I am very sorry for the loss of your friend, but I do not believe it is in my discretion as an administrator to override the people in that discussion. If you feel differently, I hope you will visit Wikipedia:Deletion review. If you have difficulties with the forms, I'll be happy to help you. SarahStierch (talk) 21:29, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
I don't understand what 'discussion' you are referring to. There was a small group of ghoulish people determined to play at being crime journalists. This is wholly inappropriate for an 'encyclopedia'. I notice that the article has changed now - the photo has been removed, confirming my view that it was not fairly used. Some of the speculative material has been removed. Why as an administrator did you not question these problems in the first place? What actually is the point of being an administrator? I am very confused. It was an obvious breach of policy, and you did nothing. Shame 86.184.50.36 (talk) 06:06, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hi Sarah. I don't know if the reference here to a user "blowing their top" is to me, but if so, that is slightly uncalled for. Yes I pushed on this issue at the original AFD, but that's because it seemed so obvious to me (so obvious that I originally simply prodded the article for deletion when I first saw it; but the creator objected and forced us to AFD) - but when I queried your decision at that AFD here, I was extremely apologetic about coming to your talk page and bothering you for clarification, and very explicit that I was simply trying to understand your reasoning - because you gave none - rather than berating you. I then left one, equally calm and explanatory follow-up response. I know it's hard for a reviewing admin to overrule what appears to be a vote in favour of something, even if AFD discussions are not meant to be such. The problem is with the system more generally, where the right decision can effectively be vetoed if enough people (often as few as 2 or 3 people in a small debate) insist on the status quo. It seems at least now that we're going to get back to where we should have been on pure policy grounds, after many hours wasted on all sides, and needless upset caused to people familiar with the victim.

Teahouse talk
Hi Sarah. I've been asked to give a talk to a group of librarians in a couple of weeks about Wikipedia, with a particular emphasis on how to get involved. The organiser has asked me to raise the Teahouse, so I thought I'd check with you if there was anything in particular you normally cover in regard to the Teahouse that I should make sure to mention. :) It should be a good opportunity - they've already asked about meetups, so it is looking really promising, and I suspect they would be great contributors. - Bilby (talk) 01:30, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hey Bilby! There really isn't much that I share that is out of the ordinary - depending on the audience, I might explain why the project formed (after presenting my research about why women edit Wikipedia, the community and I discussed ideas to create a more friendly and engaging help space...and voila!), and how it has been a proven success (33% recention, 28% women participants). But, if we aren't trying to inform people about the research and reasoning behind the Teahouse, I'd just encourage them to use the space, and after you speak to them and if they create user names, get their accounts and we can all welcome them and invite them to the Teahouse. Or even give them an assignment to ask a question (no matter how stupid) at the Teahouse or make a profile. I think it's a good starting point. If there is anything on your mind, I'm happy to break things down further with you if you'd like (or give a review of your presentation ;D) That's a great opportunity. OH! On a related note: I'll be at Linux.con.au in Canberra talking about the Teahouse - in late January early Feb - think you'll be around? I'll also be spending some time in Sydney! SarahStierch (talk) 21:42, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
- That all sounds great. :) In this case, the focus is on how to get involved in WP, so I'll raise the Teahouse and do exactly as you suggest about getting them to use the Teahouse early. As this talk is mostly about editing, I'll probably give a variation of the "How WP works" with more of a focus on practical stuff, and bring up the Teahouse as part of the process of getting started. This one is a bit unusual - most of these for me are an hour of presentation and about 30 minutes of questions, but they prefer 30 minutes of presentation and an hour of questions. :) Which is neat. The great part of this group is the focus on becoming editors that they asked for. I have another talk for a different group coming up a couple of weeks later, but they're more focused on what WP is than how to be editors.
- I'd love to go to Linux.con.au and say hello - I'll have to see if the uni agrees and will fund the trip. :) Canberra is a bit of a drive, but if I can do it via Broken Hill I'll be able to vist some of the big things that I haven't made it to yet, which will make it doubly worthwhile. - Bilby (talk) 00:31, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for editing Wikipedia! Need help?
Hello SarahStierch, thanks for contributing to Wikipedia!

Help Project newsletter : Issue 4
The Help Project Newsletter Issue IV - September 2012 | |
|
Hi, and welcome to the fourth issue of the Help Project newsletter. It's been another busy month in the world of Wikipedia help. The results from the in-person usability tests conducted as part of the help pages fellowship have been released. There are no great surprises here, the tests confirmed that people have trouble with the existing help system, and people looking for help on the same topic often end up at wildly different pages. Editors who experienced a tutorial and/or edited a sandbox as part of their learning were noticeably more confident when editing a real article. Drawing on that, three new "Introduction to" tutorials for new users have been created: referencing, uploading images and navigating Wikipedia. These join the popular existing introductions to policies and guidelines and talk pages. Feel free to edit them, but please do remember that the idea is to keep them simple and as free from extraneous details as possible. All three have been added to Help:Getting started, which is intended to be the new focal point for new editors, and will also be seeing a redesign soon. In other news, the Article Feedback Tool (AFT) can now be used to collect feedback on help pages. By default it has been deployed to all pages in the Help: namespace. It can be disabled on any page by adding Category:Article Feedback Blacklist, or enabled for pages in other namespaces by adding Category:Article Feedback 5 Additional Articles. Once a page has AFT applied, you can add feedback using the form which appears at the bottom of it. Feedback can be reviewed by clicking "View feedback" in the sidebar, or the "Feedback from my watched pages" link at the top of your watchlist. I'm now entering the final month of my fellowship, and will be focusing my efforts on making much needed improvements to Help:Contents, the main entrance point to our help system. It's been a pleasure working as a fellow, and I just want to thank all the people who have helped me or offered advice over the past months. That definitely won't be the end of my involvement in the Help Project though, I'll be sticking around as a volunteer and continuing to write this newsletter. Any comments or suggestions for future issues are welcome at Wikipedia:Help Project/Newsletter. If you don't wish to receive this newsletter on your talk page in future then just edit the participants page and add "no newsletter" next to your name. |

Thanks for the welcome
Hi, Sarah! I wanted you to know that the Barnstar you gave me way back when was part of the reason I have stuck with Wikipedia. If you would, I'd appreciate an honest critique of the last two things I did at teaahouse before signing on to be a host. One was the reply I gave to DEIDRA C at Teahouse (Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions#I don't understand.). The other was a reply I made on the talkpage of an obvious WP:SPA, User talk:Adecoratingmom. I want to do the best job I can at Teahouse cause I think this kind of thing is my Wikiniche, if you will. I am not much for writing articles, although I can refine ones already written. Thanks! Gtwfan52 (talk) 05:51, 9 September 2012 (UTC)
- Hi! Awe, that means a lot to me - about the barnstar, etc. That really does :) I have taken a look at what you wanted me to review, and honestly - there isn't much to review! You truly are a great lead in the Teahouse "movement" of help - clear and respectful answers that don't make those you are helping feel stupid (at least, it reads to me like that!) but it explains things simply and clear. I also like the use of bullets :) (re: the SPA case) so I'm bias. I'm glad the Teahouse has been able to provide a space for you to feel productive and a part of this - everyone has their "niche" and perhaps it will strike you someday to write more article content - but every type of person is needed at Wikipedia. I do everything from help people, review articles, do disambiguations and so forth! I think you're doing great - and you know me, if I have a problem, I'll tell you ;) SarahStierch (talk) 18:02, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

You have helped so many people. Read this poem:

Ask for details to improve the article
Dear SarahStierch,
Thanks for your review on the article I created. (Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Transport_Marketplace ) However, it was declined again with the reason that it looks like an ad. I did several modification accordingly but it seems more work still need to be done. Could you be so kind to explain to me in details what exactly I should improve this time? Thank you so much!

Please help us with the creation of new articles for the Indian Ordnance Factories
Hi Sarah,
- Thanks for the warm welcome. We would be needing your generous help for the creation of new wikis for the Indian Ordnance Factories, part of Ordnance Factories Board which is controlled by the Ministry of Defence, Government of India. It's world's largest government operated company and the oldest run by the GoI. It has served India for over two centuries and proven its reliability in both the World Wars, Indo Pakistani wars of 1965, 1971, 1999 and Indo Chinese war of 1962. Each of the factories is notable and is prime national importance. It would be a great help if you can help us with this or find some people who help us. Thanking you in anticipation. --BharatRakshak (talk) 14:29, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
Backstage at the Smithsonian Libraries is part of Wikipedia Loves Libraries 2012, the second annual continent-wide campaign to bring Wikipedia and libraries together with on-site events. Running this fall through October and November, libraries (and archives) will open their doors to help build a lasting relationship with their local Wikipedian community.
Organized by Wikimedia DC, this event will take place on October 12, 2012, and will include new editor training, a "backstage pass" tour of the National Museum of Natural History, and an edit-a-thon. Everyone is welcome to attend!

Hi GLAM PMA folks! I wanted to update you about some recent events related to our fantastic Museum. I met Jessica Milby, PMA Collections Information Project Manager, at Wikimania in July. Jessica was looking for ways to improve articles on Wikipedia about the Museum and its artists/collections. We followed up a few weeks later at the Perelman Building in downtown Philadelphia where we discussed ways to increase participation in the GLAM/PMA project.
- The first idea is to do some outreach to the GLAM:PMA project members, including mass messages updating you all about plans and, seeking feedback about new ideas, and hearing your thoughts about what's in the works.
- The next step is a drive to improve the main Philadelphia Museum of Art article. The article is currently 'B-Class', but Jessica was confident that with the abundance of high quality sources about the Museum that it could be improved even further. Jessica recommended this extensive source from the Museum's website.
- Another idea that came out of the meeting was a project within the Museum to assess which PMA-related topics are missing articles on Wikipedia.
- One of Jessica's ideas is to have the knowledgeable curators of the Museum provide recommended reading lists for PMA-related articles. That should be a great first step to guiding editors towards the information they need to expand and improve that content.
- Also raised for discussion were some ideas about how to engage the broader community. There is interest in setting up a tour/edit-a-thon, but this remains in the preliminary stage. Would you be interested in participating in such an event?
- We have new stats! These 24 articles are all under the PMA project. I compiled the last 90-day page views and then annualized the results. PMA-related articles get almost 800,000 view per year!
See the stats!

It's exciting to have a partner in Jessica Milby and there should be a lot of good work coming out the collaboration within the next 3-6 months. Please stop by the GLAM/PMA project page and leave your thoughts. What ideas do you have? How can we move forward on the above projects? I Hope you're all well. Cheers!
