Draft:Investindustrial approval
Hello,
I'm writing to you regarding the Investindustrial page. After the page was deleted (speedy deletion), you created a Draft page Draft:Investindustrial so that the new text could be reviewed and approved. The page is now complete and is waiting for approval. My doubt regards the approval process, there is a functionality where I can mark the draft as ready and submit it for approval? Sorry about that. Thank you very much, Tinext (talk) 16:01, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
on this, you actually reverted me. slipped in before you sorry. i didn't revert you. Jytdog (talk) 00:14, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
- Fixed. Warning shot fired. Warrior for truth on numerous topics, and I think not long for this place. Guy (Help!) 00:15, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
Regarding Dugu
But why did you just reverse ALL the edits? I also included citations and references to four books, which you also reverted. Which is not right. You should have let me know and I would have removed the blog entries. That would have been much easier and much less frustrating. The Ralston, Richardson and Rixon references were to well-known books on diecasting. Can you revert back and I will remove the blog notes instead of rewriting all the references? Thanks. --Cstevencampbell (talk) 23:59, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
- Cstevencampbell Like I said, it is too hard to pick apart the mix of good and bad when you make an edit that adds multiple purported sources at the same time. Guy (Help!) 00:03, 15 October 2016 (UTC)
The Hum
Usually it's obvious when something is nonsense but here I just couldn't tell so I did the next best thing and at least cleaned it up a bit. Could be someone with a latest possible explanation, "increase in Smart Grid technology" why not. I've followed that story for a while and everything about it is weird. Anyways I'm glad you caught it. Best. SlightSmile 00:05, 15 October 2016 (UTC)

Tanning bed
Hello,
You reverted my edits, many of which were based on the fact that content was unsourced. I then noticed that you then deleted content that was unsourced. So you it's not okay for me to do it, but it's okay for you to do it? Can you please explain? Thank you. --Darkwaterbuffalo4 (talk) 17:28, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- I reverted your succession of edits, which served overall to minimise criticism of a deadly product. Nothing else requires explanation. Guy (Help!) 17:58, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- Guy, by virtue of you saying "A deadly product", you raise very serious issues about your ability to be objective and edit without a bias. I have no idea what your experience is with them, or your background, but that is a very telling sentence. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 18:38, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- Is skin cancer not a deadly disease, then? Guy (Help!) 21:51, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- Lack of sun also causes skin cancer and colon cancer, so it is about being objective. The tanning bed article isn't the place to debate UV of course. If you came across someone editing the cigarette article and they insisted on calling them "cancer sticks", you would wonder about their objectivity. It isn't about sources, it is about WP:weight and npov. I take it you can stay neutral, but I had to point that out, just as you would if it were I. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 22:46, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- That is the classic bait-and-switch of the snake oil salesman, and you should know it. Come on, you are better than this. There's no credible evidence supporting sunbed use, it is a vanity thing and one which comes with serious and well documented risks. And I say that as one who has used these things many times. Guy (Help!) 22:57, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- I have put out many of them with doctor's prescriptions. I have sold many to doctors themselves for use in their practice. We never made claims. One doctor bought 20 for various offices, sometimes blending them with 633nm tubes. By any measure, I'm an expert in this one field. I wasn't some schmuck working the docks, I actually know the physics and mechanicals. There are plenty of people selling snake oil, I'm not one of them and not trying to cover anything up, but perhaps I know things you don't. Assume good faith, ask questions. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 23:10, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- But, as you know, the vast majority are sold and used for purely cosmetic purposes, at considerable risk to the user. We have an article on UV therapy, the two concepts are different. This distresses me, Dennis, because I have absolutely no desire to pick a fight with you. I would rather walk away than end up in dispute with you. Guy (Help!) 23:23, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- Of course most are sold for purely cosmetic reasons, I've never disputed that. I just don't want to see the article stay like it is, a 2 dimensional slam that resembles a high school project slamming them for slamming sake. Of course there is risk, but since 1988 (US), Congress regulated them so they only produce 4 MEDs, and in the EU, the lamps can only be as strong as the natural sun as of a few years ago. They aren't nearly as strong as people think. This is what I mean about balance. I've never denied the risk to anyone, which might make me rare, but I am who I am. Most newspapers overblow the risk because they don't understand the physics, but that doesn't change the fact that risks exist, and this is why we should use MEDRS sources for risks. Dennis Brown - 2¢ 23:42, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- I have thought long and hard about this. I have a view of the neutrality and ideal format of that article, and I find the promotional edits of recent months abhorrent given that the number one documented adverse effect of these things is malignant melanoma, but if it means having a fight with you, I am not going there. You have a COI, I recommend you also leave it alone, maybe recruit Jytdog or someone, but I am unwatching that article. Note that this is not normal for me. Content is king, as far as I am concerned, but I simply do not feel strongly enough about this to risk falling out with someone I consider a friend. Guy (Help!) 23:17, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
- I expect to limit most of my edits to the talk page and formatting, as well as uncontroversial prose. I respect that I have a COI but at the same time, I also have some expertise that can be helpful. I want neutrality as well. I hate that you feel you need to walk away, but I understand.

- In a (not particularly good) fantasy novel, there is an island where the inhabitants forcibly elect their leaders. The (potential) leader is placed under armed guard as soon as they are nominated (against their will) to prevent them from fleeing. Should they get elected, all their possessions are sold and the total invested in the national economy. Should the economy make a profit, they get it all back with interest. Should it tank, they lose money etc. I always thought the concept of enforced service should be extended to wikipedia. Admins must spend 3 months a year handing arbitration cases etc....

Over the hills...
So going down the rabbitholes from Peter Hofschröer I have ended up at Willem Jan Knoop which has issues. Specifically the third paragraphy at the end of 'Siborne controversy' that makes a number of statements in wikivoice that appear to be very non-neutral, not supported by sources (except heavily POV-slanted ones) etc. "Siborne's book nevertheless became a celebrated source in Anglophone historiography for many secondary accounts of the battles of Quatre Bras and Waterloo, that faithfully perpetuated the many egregious errors of fact and fabrications (willful or accidental) in Siborne's work." Which is strong wording which is not mentioned in Siborne's article at all. You would think someone who made many 'egregious' errors and falsifications would have it mentioned somewhere with a reliable source. "Recently the controversy resurfaced with the attack by David Hamilton-Williams, who used Knoop's rebuttal as one of his sources (though not for his accusations of fraud aimed at Siborne).[8] This apparently earned Hamilton-Williams the enmity of many Siborne-fans, and an avalanche of mostly ad hominem attacks." etc etc. I'm tempted to nuke the paragraph in its entirety as it appears to only be semi-related to the subject and more of a catfight between competing historians? In a wider sense, there are a number of related articles relating to the Napoleonic wars that appear to be having similar problems. Only in death does duty end (talk) 10:58, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

- Ah I see. I am writing up a list to get to in my future spare time so will be adding some of the Napoleonic articles to it. Unfortunately I have been distracted by what appears to be some sort of template-war currently in progress. Not the usual 'should we have/not use a template' but lots of RFC's over the wording on templates and then edit warring to make the use (of the template) on the article adhere to their interpretation. Although if we are talking EU Pro-Cath military commanders, I have a soft spot for Gustavus Adolphus who really should be taught more in the UK.

Chiropractic as pseudoscience
There are numerous sources which categorize the entirety of chiropractic as pseudoscience. The only possible defence against this is to claim that chiropractic isn't a science at all, but with all the work being done I have a hard time justifying that. Also it's important that this is visible in the first or second sentence of the introduction, as these are the only ones to show up in Google searches (where we get most of our readers from). Carl Fredrik 💌 📧 16:24, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
- You know the solution. Demonstrate that the preponderence of RS sources supports the characterisation overall, and not just in respect of innate and the so-called chiropractic subluxation. Guy (Help!) 18:21, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
- Of the sources discussing the overall basis of chiropractic most do indeed describe it as pseudoscience or similar. I added a reference to a very thorough book which states (among many other things):
The profession is rooted in pseudo-science, and much of it is actively antiscientific.
- I can frankly not find any RS that claims it is scientifically sound, only some that suggest it should be evidence based [1], not that it is. Carl Fredrik 💌 📧 18:39, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

- I wanted to discuss the nature of Wiki medical articles in general. It did not seem to me that discussing it on the Talk page for NCGS was the appropriate place. Actually I am just asking for advice, and I saw this: "Everything I do or say could be wrong. I try always to be open to that possibility. If you think I am wrong, please just talk to me nicely, and it can all be sorted out like grown-ups." Or maybe not?Keithbowden (talk) 19:33, 4 November 2016 (UTC)
- Check the left-hand column of this page; look for "Email this user" indented under "Tools".

Deletion of [Mesh (band)]
The article [Mesh (Band)] was deleted in September; at the time the majority of those in favour of the deletion cited the poor style of the article and the lack of references. Some also claimed the band was not well known enough.
I reworked the draft article to address these issues, and someone resubmitted it for review. Yesterday you have deleted the article again without reference to the improvements made, or any explanation why. The article has been substantially changed, so I believe G4 no longer applies. No one has had a chance to respond to your concerns. As I write, the band is number 1 in the German Alternative Charts.

Questionable edits on LearningRx and Brain Balance
The "further reading" section in LearningRx links to what looks like to me a promotion. A book title that seems to advocate the program, something that would be a wp:advertising. And also on Brain Balance, I put reliably sourced criticism of the program. A few days later an IP (probably affiliated with the company) added that a randomized control trial showed benefits of the program. But I can't seem to figure out weather it verifies if the company funded or had links to the trail. If so I don't think it should be there as it become WP:SPAM. Better check them out.--Taeyebar 23:22, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

A new user right for New Page Patrollers
Hi JzG.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins).MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 13:47, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
New Page Review needs your help
Hi JzG,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

RE Your block of Hewitt...
...You do know that any block in enforcement of an arbitration sanction can be an AE block right? It doesnt have to go to the AE noticeboard to do so. The noticeboard is just a central location to report them. Any administrator can place an AE block as long as its enforcing an active arbitration sanction against a user. Only in death does duty end (talk) 09:25, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
- Yes I do, but the bar is higher and this was an admin block based on behaviour not an AE block based on matching behaviour precisely to sanctioned behaviour. Maybe I am being too cautious. Guy (Help!) 00:20, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
- I have always been of the opinion the bar is lower for AE blocks due to the sanction already existing. There is a de-facto justification already in place for a substantial block. Only in death does duty end (talk) 09:23, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
