Draft:Charlie Bailey Disambiguation
Hello Robert,
Thank you for your feedback on the Draft:Charlie Bailey (Georgia Politician) page. In regards to the lack of a disambiguation page, I found one under the name Charles Bailey and was wondering if that would work? If so, I am curious if the way the Charlie Bailey page currently links to that disambiguation page is acceptable. Thanks again. LucilleAustero2 (talk) 18:35, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

Your draftification of Marine resources
Hi Robert. I hope you are well. I'm feeling compelled to share some feedback on your recent draftification of Marine resources:
- It is a good idea to check for incoming links before draftifying an article. Your move created redlinks in 27 articles.
- I don't know how any editor could understand how to address a rejection that consists entirely of "This is a dictionary definition", especially considering that the article didn't cite or quote from any dictionaries. The sole source in the article was a United Nations General Assembly resolution. The United Nations General Assembly isn't a dictionary.
- When the topic of an article is literally "all the useful stuff contained in something that covers 70% of the surface of the Earth", it is notable. I can't believe I have to say this. I hope I don't see page moves like this again. Best wishes, Clayoquot (talk | contribs) 05:27, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
Why are you telling AFC submitters they can end up with partial blocks. That's incredibly hostile.
{{Sentback}} is ... bad advice and WP:BITEY. We should not being doing that. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 08:38, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- If used correctly and with discretion, it's perfectly legitimate. I can think of a dozen recent cases where I might well have used it. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 08:54, 27 May 2022 (UTC)
- User:Headbomb - I have removed some of the wording from the template. It doesn't change the fact that tendentious moving of a page back into article space should result in a partial block. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:53, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- That can be address when the time comes, but the warning 'Do not resubmit this draft without addressing the comments of the previous reviewer.' should cover that without being bitey. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 23:55, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
- Depends whom one is warning. As I said: If used correctly and with discretion, it's perfectly legitimate. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง (talk) 16:00, 29 May 2022 (UTC)
- As I said, I have reworded it so that, as requested by Headbomb, it says not to resubmit without addressing the comments of the previous reviewer. There are other stronger warnings that can be used for tendentious editors. Also, what is incredibly hostile is the way some editors either insist on submitting a draft repeatedly or move a draft to article space repeatedly. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:26, 29 May 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Elissa Auther
Hello, Robert McClenon. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Elissa Auther".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 16:55, 30 May 2022 (UTC)
- User:Liz - At least this time it doesn't tell me, uselessly, that it is about to be deleted. Now it is only telling me uselessly that something I probably only ever moved from a sandbox to draft space has been deleted. I do notice that no one else was notified of the deletion, but it had been someone else's sandbox. I see that blocked sockpuppets are also getting these useless notices. Oh well. Robert McClenon (talk) 17:19, 30 May 2022 (UTC)

Thanks. It's a sock mess. I'm sure we'll see the copy pasta back again soon sadly. Star Mississippi 17:17, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Star Mississippi - You made an ambiguous remark about if a neutral AFC reviewer thought there was any merit to the draft. I saw the usual demerit to the draft. After the draft is deleted, another sock will come and create a new version, as you said. AFC reviewers may either just decline the draft as not meeting notability, or notice that the title is salted, and reject the draft, and report another sock. I won't discuss the beans. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:40, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
- I responded at the SPI. I'm hoping Girth puts us out of our misery if they concur with the report. I'm tired of whack a mole to be honest, but leave it to others in case they prefer the sock catcher. Star Mississippi 23:51, 2 June 2022 (UTC)

Twinkle notices
Hello, Robert,
I saw your message at Twinkle Talk about unwanted notifications of CSD G13s that resulted from redirects that you created after moving a page, which were later turned into draft articles by other editors. This exact thing just happened a few minutes ago with Draft:Jakir Hossain where you were listed as the page creator. Since I'm the admin who does leave talk page notices when deleting stale drafts, it is easier to change my behavior than Twinkle's so I'll just uncheck the box that says "Notify page creator" when I see your name at the bottom of a page history. I might make a mistake or two but I'll try not to annoy you with those unwanted notifications. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 21:51, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Liz - They don't really annoy me, so much as give me something to ridicule. But if you can turn off the stupid notices, that is fine. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:10, 2 June 2022 (UTC)
Draft:Lubna Marium
Dear, Robert McClenon Brother, how else can I prove that she is a notable person? Doesn't it prove that there are national and international news in his name? I am adding what I found in his name in Google. If this is not the case with Wikipedia, then how can I work on Wiki?--Ayatul nish (talk) 09:12, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Ayatul nish - Did you read what is displayed at the top of my talk page? If you have questions about drafts, please ask at the Teahouse. I will also ask you what your association is with Lubna Marium. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:55, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- @User:Robert McClenon, Lubna Marium has nothing to do with me. I don't even know him personally. I saw some news on Google and saw that he is a significant person so I did Wikipedia.--Ayatul nish (talk) 16:39, 3 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Lubna Marium - And you don't even know whether Lubna Marium is male or female. Not everyone whom you find on Google is notable or significant. But did you see my advice to ask at the Teahouse? Robert McClenon (talk) 17:35, 3 June 2022 (UTC)

Sendbox me
Hello, did you move my training page? What is the reason? I was completing the article.--Liyan baboo (talk) 06:02, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Liyan baboo - You had submitted the sandbox for review. If you have submitted the sandbox for review, it can be moved to draft space. You may edit it in draft space. It is at Draft:Amir Sarkhosh (2). In the future, do not submit your sandbox for review while you are still working on it. Robert McClenon (talk) 15:55, 4 June 2022 (UTC)
Regarding declined submission
Hi, I saw that you recently declined the AfC submission at Draft:May 2022 Midwest derecho, I've contributed to this draft and I somewhat disagree with the reasoning. A derecho is a type of storm complex that will commonly produce tornadoes along with significant non-tornadic winds, so inclusion of the tornadoes is appropriate. Storm events are often multi-faceted in any case. This might be something to bring up at the talk page. If the tornadoes are a non-starter under that title, something more like Derecho and tornado outbreak of April 4–5, 2011 might be worth considering. TornadoLGS (talk) 20:52, 4 June 2022 (UTC)

Camille Vasquez RfC
Hello, first of all, appreciate you for setting up the RfC. Just out of curiosity though, why did you decide to only ask about inclusion in the lead and infobox? After all, the initial dispute was about whether the name should be noted at all. Throast (talk | contribs) 16:25, 6 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Throast - Perhaps I did not read the dispute a third time as slowly as I should have. However, my experience is that there are commonly disputes about what should go in the lede sentence and in the infobox, and that, in both my opinion and general experience, disputed matters can usually go in the text of the article. If you also want an RFC on including Brown Rudnick in the text of the article, I will start another one. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:31, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Cartifact
Dear mr. McClenon,
As a former map librarian of the koninklijke Bibliotheek (National Library of The Netherlands) I have been confronted with this phenomenon during my inter(national) career (1979-2017). As the wikipedia page looks now it seems to be an explanation from a dictionary. The emphasis should be more on the material form on which a cartographic expression is used and not on the cartographic expression itself.
Since a long time it has been a topic in the world of map librarians. On the website 'Map History / History of Cartography: THE Gateway to the Subject' (http://www.maphistory.info/mapsindex.html), that is updated by the former map librarian of the British Library (1987-2001) Tony Campbell it has its own chapter under the heading 'Miscellaneous' (http://www.maphistory.info/topics.html#oddities). And I myself wrote an article concerning this subject in the peer-reviewed 'Journal of map & geography libraries'.
For the reader of wikipedia it seems elucidating to know that cartifacts come in every form are and expressed in/on many unusual materials one may meet in every day life (http://web.archive.org/web/20150906092947/http://persons.kb.nl/jsmits/cartifact/list.html).
While creating the page I was not aware of it being deleted in 2005 and I have not used any text previously published on wikipedia. I'm not aware that it is a neologism, but the term 'cartifact' was introduced by J.B. Post, former map librarian at the Free Library of Philadelphia and since then established itself in common use with map librarians and professionals in the field of cartography.
With kind regards,

Draft:Aaron Violi
You have just declined my submission, because another article on that subject already exists. That's fine. I realised the duplication a few hours after I wrote it almost weeks ago. I would have deleted my draft if I could have found a way, but couldn't. There needs to an obvious way to do so, to save work for people like you. HiLo48 (talk) 01:22, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:HiLo48 - Well, first, you can delete a draft, by tagging it for G7, author requests deletion. But, second, the preferred answer is to redirect the draft to the article, rather than to delete it. Redirects from drafts to articles are common; they are what is left when a draft is accepted. So redirection rather than deletion is the answer. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:28, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
European Colonization of the Americas mediation
I am formally asking for your mediation and agree to all of your rules. I have already written to the people I accused and apologized but DeCausa stil refuses to mediate. I feel like they discriminated agaisnt me and he feels that I was disruptive. I think, after reflecting on your words, that we are equally wrong. However, I think that I am not going to get the block lifted because they really have an issue with me. This happens to me alot, partly due to my disabiltiies and difficulty communicating online. §cbinetti — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbinetti (talk • contribs) 22:11, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Cbinetti - You may request mediation at DRN. Follow all of the instructions, including notifying the other editors. DeCausa may or may not agree. If there is discussion, it will only be about article content, and comments about editors will not be permitted. The next step, if you wish, is for you to request moderated dispute resolution of article content. Robert McClenon (talk) 23:20, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
I do need being unblocked to be part of this. My character is being attacked. How do I defend myself without discussing the false accusations of DeCausa? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cbinetti (talk • contribs) 23:25, 12 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Cbinetti - No, you do not need to have a partial unblock from editing the article lifted in order to discuss article content. I have not reviewed the history of your block and am willing to take a look at the history, but the content of the article can be discussed without discussing DeCausa and without discussing the partial block. There are two separate issues, the content of the article, and conduct issues. What I am willing to do is to discuss article content only. Do you want to discuss article content? Robert McClenon (talk) 15:13, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- I’ve just noticed this thread and I’ve posted a reply on Abecedare’s talk page. You may have got the wrong end of the stick. I wasn’t actually in a content dispute with Cbinetti in the way you think. Others were in a dispute with him about the issue since Decemeber. My involvement was about his edit-warring on 11 June.

Regarding Draft:Allen Career Institute
Hello, how are you? I read that you suggested that this draft should be allowed to be reviewed. Can you or someone else lift the admin requirements so that if someone wants to review it, they can? Thank you so much! Mtpos (talk) 13:45, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Mtpos - I don't see where I requested that the title be partially unprotected. I see that the title has been admin-protected (salted) for six months. I agree that downgrading the protection to extended-confirmed would be a good idea, but please either show me where I commented on it, or make a request to one of the protecting administrators. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:50, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
- You are right Robert McClenon. You didn't. I shouldn't have assumed. Sorry! Mtpos (talk) 16:28, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- I have trouble following this. Robert, you proposed here that a review of the draft should be allowed. I'm sure you know more about the review process than I do. Does that process depend on the article being unprotected? Isn't it the draft (which in this case has never been protected) that's reviewed? I'm somewhat unwilling to unprotect the article before review, considering how many times it has been recreated and re-deleted. Look at this long list, from which I get the impression that the Allen Carter Institute has been trying for many years to get an advert on Wikipedia. Could you please explain to me how the review process works, and if/why the article would need to be unprotected first? (PS; I protected the article indefinitely in 2016 - I don't know where "six months" comes from.) Bishonen | tålk 17:19, 17 June 2022 (UTC).
- User:Bishonen - I will try to explain. First, I think that I meant six years rather than six months. The title was indefinitely salted six years ago. Second, as a general matter, and this may be a personal eccentricity to which I am entitled, I don't like to review a draft that I can't accept even if I want to accept it. I don't like to review a draft if the title is admin-protected in article space, because I can't guarantee the author that I can accept it, or that my request to unprotect it after review will be granted. I don't want to make a Technical Move Request for the administrator to accept the draft as an article, because then the administrator moves the draft into article space, and it requires tedious cleanup that is normally done by the acceptance script. Third, however, in this case, given the history, I can see why any draft should be reviewed first. I am not sure that I want to be that reviewer, but I can see why we don't want to downgrade the protection. That is why. I just don't want to waste my time reviewing a draft when the title is locked. Is that sort of an answer? Robert McClenon (talk) 18:26, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Mtpos - I will be making the conflict of interest query on your user talk page. I certainly don't recommend that anyone review the draft until the COI inquiry is answered either with a disclosure or with an explicit disclaimer. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:26, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
- If I were to review the current draft, I would decline it and would use the template {{compsays}}. I might also ask the author to provide the three to five good references, because it appears to have been reference-bombed. But I am not reviewing it. Robert McClenon (talk) 18:26, 17 June 2022 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Michael Pollack
Hello, Robert McClenon. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Michael Pollack".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 22:14, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Liz - This is actually interesting, rather than just being a case where I can poke fun at Twinkle. The draft was probably a redirect to Michael Pollack (musician), because I accepted and renamed the draft. The search for expired drafts didn't notice that it was a redirect, or, probably, didn't pay attention to the fact that it was a redirect to a different title. Redirecting a draft to the same title is common, and is what is done when the reviewer accepts the draft. But we already knew that. Interesting. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:27, 18 June 2022 (UTC)
Dewey Case
I went ahead and closed the Dewey case- upon reading the talk page and teahouse case- there does appear to be off-wiki harassments (ish?) (attempting to contact on FB) and one of the users involved literally wrote the book in question on the topic. So..... COI. That combined with the less than 48 hours discussion time- that's just not a case that is going to be fruitful at this time. They DRN filing did get another user interested- so maybe they will head on over and form a consensus. If not- it belongs at ANI for a book author deciding they WP:OWN a page they wrote about off wiki. Or using an article to WP:SELFPROMOT their own book. The only disagreement is on if the comment about the book the editor wrote- winning an award belongs in the article. :-/Nightenbelle (talk) 15:15, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
- User:Nightenbelle - I haven't yet read the Teahouse case. I did notice that Flahistory was asserting their ownership of the article, but I noticed that after I had made a comment on the case. I will look at the Teahouse, but I agree with your closure. Robert McClenon (talk) 16:25, 19 June 2022 (UTC)
Just wish to understand a little
Greetings @ Robert McClenon,
Coincidentally I happened to reach Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Warina Hussain. May be subject does not pass notability as of the day so I do not have any question on that.
A very detailed table got me curious about. What does column 'Independent' signifies?
- a) Whether it means sources are not Independent and directly / indirectly influenced by the actress/ person?
- b) Or it means Whether it means sources are not Independent and directly / indirectly influenced by entertainment industry?
- c) Or it means Whether it means sources are not Independent in their political outlook and political outlook of the respective sources have some relation to entertainment industry in this case?
- e) You mean something else.
In either case I would like to understand your view just out of curiosity if you do not mind to share with me.
Thanks and warm regards

New Page Patrol newsletter June 2022
Hello Robert McClenon,
- Backlog status
At the time of the last newsletter (No.27, May 2022), the backlog was approaching 16,000, having shot up rapidly from 6,000 over the prior two months. The attention the newsletter brought to the backlog sparked a flurry of activity. There was new discussion on process improvements, efforts to invite new editors to participate in NPP increased and more editors requested the NPP user right so they could help, and most importantly, the number of reviews picked up and the backlog decreased, dipping below 14,000[a] at the end of May.
Since then, the news has not been so good. The backlog is basically flat, hovering around 14,200. I wish I could report the number of reviews done and the number of new articles added to the queue. But the available statistics we have are woefully inadequate. The only real number we have is the net queue size.[b]
In the last 30 days, the top 100 reviewers have all made more than 16 patrols (up from 8 last month), and about 70 have averaged one review a day (up from 50 last month).
While there are more people doing more reviews, many of the ~730 with the NPP right are doing little. Most of the reviews are being done by the top 50 or 100 reviewers. They need your help. We appreciate every review done, but please aim to do one a day (on average, or 30 a month).
- Backlog drive
A backlog reduction drive, coordinated by buidhe and Zippybonzo, will be held from July 1 to July 31. Sign up here. Barnstars will be awarded.
- TIP – New school articles
Many new articles on schools are being created by new users in developing and/or non-English-speaking countries. The authors are probably not even aware of Wikipedia's projects and policy pages. WP:WPSCH/AG has some excellent advice and resources specifically written for these users. Reviewers could consider providing such first-time article creators with a link to it while also mentioning that not all schools pass the GNG and that elementary schools are almost certainly not notable.
- Misc
There is a new template available, {{NPP backlog}}
, to show the current backlog. You can place it on your user or talk page as a reminder:
>NPP backlog: 8577 as of 14:00, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
There has been significant discussion at WP:VPP recently on NPP-related matters (Draftification, Deletion, Notability, Verifiability, Burden). Proposals that would somewhat ease the burden on NPP aren't gaining much traction, although there are suggestions that the role of NPP be fundamentally changed to focus only on major CSD-type issues.
- Reminders
- Consider staying informed on project issues by putting the project discussion page on your watchlist.
- If you have noticed a user with a good understanding of Wikipedia notability and deletion, suggest they help the effort by placing
{{subst:NPR invite}}
on their talk page. - If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process and its software.

2022–23 Inverness Caledonian Thistle F.C. season Main Article deletion
Hi, you left a message on my draft article about it being declined because there was already an article on it, however for whatever reason the Main got completely deleted for no reason sometime last night, there wasn't a discussion, no AFD, nothing. I'm not sure if this was a case of butterfingers by somebody trying to delete the Draft or whatever, but at the end of the day, it's not a massive issue, as I've updated the draft to mirror the (old) main article.
Anyway, as said, the draft article's been completely updated, and if there's any way to fast track it through the reviewing to fill the void, it'd be greatly appreciated.
Cheers, POTH94 (talk) 11:47, 26 June 2022 (UTC)

Draft: Arknights: Endfield
Hi!I noticed you helped figure out some problems with the draft I tried to submit. I understand that subjects on Wikipedia need many references to support them. When I was writing the draft, I take Zenless Zone Zero's, Honkai: Star Rail's, and Granblue Fantasy: Relink's wiki pages as references because they are all upcoming games. So I tried to match the number of references to those published pages. About the notability part, I am not sure if over 40,000 followers on Youtube and Twitter are enough, but since this upcoming game share the same name with Arknights, a game that has 270,000 followers on Twitter, I think that might kinda help it match the requirement on game notability. Those are my personal opinions, and I am glad and willing to discuss more on how I should modify the draft. Reedemmna (talk) 08:06, 5 July 2022 (UTC)

Sockpuppet Question
Mr. McClenon: I came across a section where you accused me of "If this isn't sockpuppetry, it is some sort of meat coordination.'" I didn't even know what sockpuppetry meant! I have never coordinated anything, ever with anyone on wikipedia! It must have been an example of two editors thinking the same thing at the same time. Why did you not ask me directly?
Suspected sockpuppets Karagory (talk+ · tag · contribs · logs · filter log · block log · CA) ( Clerk note: original case name) TestingSwype (talk+ · tag · contribs · logs · filter log · block log · CA) Tools: Editor interaction utility • Interaction Timeline • User compare report Auto-generated every hour. This is not an open-and-shut case that can be decided by the duck test, but it is a strange situation. Karagory first edited in 2008, but made a total of seven edits between 2008 and 2020. They then began editing Peter Navarro on 3 January 2021, and then reported a content dispute involving the Navarro article at DRN. TestingSwype began editing on 2 January 2021. The only edits that they have made have been to their sandbox, and to volunteer at DRN, and to mediate the Navarro dispute. If this isn't sockpuppetry, it is some sort of meat coordination. Request Checkuser to see if they are the same person. Robert McClenon (talk) 22:44, 5 January 2021 (UTC) Respectfully, Karagory (talk) 00:19, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Karagory - I didn't ask you because it was clear to me that something improper was going on. Creating an account, making a large number of edits to their sandbox, and then trying to mediate a dispute was improper. In fact, User:TestingSwype was a sockpuppet of someone else. It wasn't a case of two editors thinking the same thing. You made some edits to Peter Navarro and then opened a request for dispute resolution about Peter Navarro. Another editor appearing out of nowhere to mediate the dispute was improper. Either you were involved also, or you weren't involved in the misconduct. It turns out that you were not involved in the misconduct, but only happened to be where it happened, and there wasn't a conduct dispute after all. That is why I didn't ask you. It isn't useful to ask an editor if they are involved in misconduct. Is that an answer? Robert McClenon (talk) 00:50, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Karagory - I was mistaken in thinking that you had anything to do with it. I still don't know what the puppeteer was trying to do. I apologize for thinking that you were involved. I made my sockpuppet investigation quietly, behind the scenes, which is how this is usually done. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:55, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
- Mr. McClenon, looking back seeing everything that you saw, I understand it could potentially look and be bad. However, your initial quess was wrong! I was in the wrong place at the wrong time. I want you to know that so that you do not block someone incorrectly in the future. That would be awful! For the past 15 years, or so, I only used wikipedia for technical information which doesn't have much controversy; this other part of wikipedia kind of sucks. I use my real name because I don't believe in hiding behind my words; I want to know when I am wrong. In any case, thanks for taking the time to make wikipedia a better place for people like me.

Hi, I wanted to wait until the DRV closed to ask you this. In your comment on the DRV you said, "This was a poorly written close that reads more like an !vote than a close..."

Nova Scotia
Hello,
It deeply, deeply saddens me to see the dispute resolution closed. I had no access to internet because I got caught in travel issues crossing back home into Canada, so I was unable to respond. I truly believe this is an issue with the content of the article, namely the abject erasure of relevant history and equivalent treaties (and more than enough historical and contemporary source material to back this up). There is a history of the other editor, Moxy, erasing Indigenous content for nebulous or tenuous reasons, and I would humbly ask that you re-open the discussion. Danachos (talk) 20:02, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Danachos - It appears that you requested to open a DRN case when you may not have been ready to take part in dispute resolution, which requires that you respond to the moderator within 48 hours. It now also appears, to my embarrassment, that if I close a case, a bot makes an edit to it to request its archival, and I don't know how to reverse that. So I will see if I can prevent the dispute from being archived as closed. However, I will assume that the case will be archived as closed. What you can do, and I encourage you to do, is to resume discussion at the article talk page. Please ping Moxy. Please also ping Headbomb, who became a minor party in the case. After there is discussion, you can make another request for dispute resolution. Please try to make an effort to plan to be able to take part in the case; I understand that you were without Internet access. So, resume discussion at the article talk page, and if that is inconclusive, you can open a new dispute at DRN. Robert McClenon (talk) 00:13, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Danachos - I think that I have tweaked the closed case so that it will not disappear. Resume discussion on the article talk page anyway, and then we will see whether dispute resolution can be restarted. Robert McClenon (talk) 01:41, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- Darn it! It really is difficult to participate without consistent access to internet...
- Of course, I will follow your direction with the talk page. However, I find that discussion there becomes very one-sided. I plead my case, provide sources, etc., and the same one or two users (cited in the DRN) shoot down any attempt at good-faith dialogue with the same excuses seen in the DRN. I will attempt once again on the talk page, but I am unsure how to proceed with minimal internet access (sometimes none for days at a time, if not a week) and with minimal external input in the matter Danachos (talk) 20:35, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Danachos - There is not much advice that I can provide about how to change an article with minimal access to the Internet. Wikipedia has been characterized as one of the crown jewels of the World Wide Web. You might be able to get more informed advice about your problem at the Teahouse. I suggest that you ask at the Teahouse if anyone has any advice for editors with inconsistent access to the Internet. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:06, 19 July 2022 (UTC)
Noah Zuhdi page feedback
The draft of the Noah Zuhdi entry (Draft:Noah Zuhdi) is my first for Wikipedia. I felt like I had a well-rounded list of sources (ranging from ESPN to university records to boxing organizations to boxing industry sources to the most widely circulated publications/periodicals in Oklahoma) that were properly cited. I only have one account. So, I'm intrigued by and hoping to find out what was meant by your feedback on my page: "Comment: There is a history of sockpuppetry associated with this draft. If this draft is resubmitted, please check the history and determine whether the submitter is quacking. If so, please take appropriate action, which may include filing a follow-up sockpuppet investigation.
This does not mean that the topic is not notable, and it does not mean that the topic is notable. If this draft is resubmitted by a neutral good-faith reviewer, it may be reviewed and accepted based on its content and sources. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:08, 20 June 2022 (UTC)"
Any guidance you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Przybylop (talk) 18:48, 16 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Przbylop - On further looking at the draft, I see that I probably should not have put that tag on the draft, and may have been acting hastily. It appears that it was the previous reviewer of your draft who has been blocked for sockpuppetry, which doesn't affect the draft content. So I will remove that comment, and will also remove the comment from the reviewer (because the reviewer was a sockpuppet), and will allow someone else to review the draft. It still might be a good idea to ask for advice at the Teahouse. Robert McClenon (talk) 21:39, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Draft:Pathaan (2023 film) and Draft:Pathaan (film)
I noticed your action upon Draft:Pathaan (film). After your rejection a new user came up with a new AfC of the same topic, Draft:Pathaan (2023 film). The account is only used to create the film's new draft See contribution, contrubutions. I have declined the new draft and the author commented on my talk page regarding my action which seems fishy, See discussion.
The user started working for the draft on the same day of his account registration and have done the draft like an experienced editor and he is claiming that he is from France. Can we check the location of the account? My strong assumption is both drafts are created by same person with alternative accounts, ie; WP:SOCKPUPPET. Onmyway22 talk 12:22, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- User:Onmyway22 = I also think that there is a coordinated effort to advertise the film with a listing. However, the reason that David Teckdens replied on your talk page is that you questioned their good faith publicly with a note on the draft that you suspect sockpuppetry. Saying that an active editor may be a sockpuppet is a personal attack. Either file an SPI or leave it alone. We know that David Teckdens is not User:Cambria Math. Either there is some other sockmaster, or there are multiple humans who are being paid, which is UPE, or the director has ultras. Do you have a specific sockpuppet concern? Robert McClenon (talk) 14:08, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
- @Robert McClenon I have the same thought like you that this might be a promotional campaign for the film. I read your reviewer comment that the topic might need a topic ban if the draft submit again without establishing notability. So the editor is just only created. In addition I didnt aware about that sock personal attack. Thanks for the reply Onmyway22 talk 15:57, 21 July 2022 (UTC)

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Editor's refusal to source team season pages
I commented on your AfC note on User talk:Bremerton98310. This otherwise productive user rarely responds to comments (and when they do never seem to sign). What they do is mechanically crank out team season articles, so I don't really want to impede them, truly. The subjects are presumed notable and their effort is appreciated and needed, especially in realm of women's sports coverage. But given the repeated similar comments on their talk page over their entire editing history about failing to reliably source such pages, I was wondering what you thought the best way forward might be. BusterD (talk) 04:51, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
I have an idea......
So we are getting a lot of too soon disputes on the DRN..... what if we made a sub-page where editors could ask for a mediator to keep an eye on their discussions as they are happening? Maybe step in and help mediate discussions on the talk page while they are happening and help them avoid the DRN alltogether? This would give the toosoon people a place to go- and also maybe help keep discussions from escalating- what do you think? Nightenbelle (talk) 17:20, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
