Lack of Participation at DRN
Yuck. I see that you are getting no response. So am I. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:23, 4 September 2016 (UTC)
- Ha, I think it has to do with how much time it takes for us to open a case and then proceed. Editors loose interest in the dispute. It's a pity we have less volunteers, but what's even more pity is that the participants loosing interests in the very few cases opened for discussion.

Hello from Bec colman
Hello UY Scuti,
Apologies if this is not the correct forum or way of contacting you regarding your review of my article 'Steve Dub'.
Firstly thank you for taking the time in doing so, especially as I only submitted in yesterday.
However, I strongly believe this was wrongly rejected on the basis of Notability. Steve Dub is a record producer, engineer, mixer and song-writer, which is clearly stated in the opening line of the article. The article doesn't state anywhere that he is/or has ever been part of the band The Chemical Brothers.
Steve has engineered and mixed many of their albums and from doing so has won 3 x grammy awards and been nominated for a further 2 (for his engineering and mixing work). The Chemical Brothers are a duo. Please check their wiki page for details. They don't have any other band members. Please note that the links I provided to the Grammy Awards clearly state Steve as an engineer and mixer, not a band member. This means he was awarded these grammy's for being part of the recording, production and mixing of the records, for example 'Best Dance Recording'. etc..
I hope this has cleared it up. You may note that I also have listed a lot of other acts that Steve has produced and mixed over the years who have nothing to do with The Chemical Brothers.
Thank you for your time and kind regards,

- Hello Bec colman, thanks for contacting me. Indeed this is the right place to contact me. Coming to your article Draft:Steve Dub, I believe I've done it right. I acknowledge the fact that being nominated and (or) winning a Grammy is a de facto notability. But the three Grammys are not for his sole performance, but for the band, The Chemical Brothers. If you have a look at the article, all the three Grammys are listed as awards for the band. If anything, everyone that worked in the song are sharing the award and that makes the band notable (per WP:NMUSIC). If you disagree, by all means (you are free to) please resubmit the article for another reviewer to take a look and see what they think. Or alternatively, you can bring it up in the help desk.

New articles
Hi. Thanks for recently approving a new article I worked on. I have been writing many new articles on Olympic athletes. For some reason, many sit without being approved. I put in many footnotes. They are not turned down, just not acted on. Should I just wait? Should I let you know of some of them? Maybe people are not sure that Olympic athletes are notable, even if they have a short article. Thank you. --2604:2000:E016:A700:45E:4C3:4B78:5AA4 (talk) 19:50, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
- @2604:2000:E016:A700:45E:4C3:4B78:5AA4: Sure. Submit it for review and please link them here. I'll see what I can do. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 18:24, 11 September 2016 (UTC)
Really? Youre so nice. That would be great. Some have been sitting there as long as two weeks. I'll just mention a few here. I don't want to overload you. And if you dont want to touch them, for some reason, thats fine too of course.

Wax (rapper)
Good day! I noticed that the AFDs for Liquid Courage (Wax album) and Eviction Notice (Wax album) were closed without agreement of the creator, and without allowing seven weeks days or seven comments of discussion. Is there a reason for this? --Jax 0677 (talk) 19:26, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- Jax 0677, sorry, but agreement of the creator, seven weeks, seven comments are not policies. Consensus overrides creator's agreement, discussion is run for 7 days (maybe relisted two to three times i.e., two to three more weeks) and number of comments don't make a difference. Please refer to WP:CLOSEAFD. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 19:36, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- Reply - Sorry for my error, I meant to say seven days. --Jax 0677 (talk) 19:45, 12 September 2016 (UTC)

- Jax 0677, A deletion discussion should normally be allowed to run for seven full days (168 hours). The AfD was nominated at 18:27, 5 September 2016 (UTC) and was closed at 19:10, 12 September 2016 (UTC). So, the discussion did run for 7 days. To be even more specific, 168 hours and 40 minutes. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 19:54, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
- And for the second AfD, it was closed after 168 hours and 55 minutes. Regards—UY Scuti Talk 19:56, 12 September 2016 (UTC)
