Hello Tim, Thank you for your review of https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Draft:Franti%C5%A1ek_Jozef_Tur%C4%8Dek&redirect=no. What kind of reference I have to use to make the article supported by reliable sources? There is no online sources which could be used as support for the info presented in my article. Any suggestions will be very helpful for me. Sincerely Benjamin — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benjamín Jarčuška (talk • contribs) 06:28, 8 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi Timtrent,
Thanks for your feedback. I agree and understand that the Products section should not be integral to the article, and have cut it down further. I believe that the notability requirement for this article is mainly achieved through Bmai's utilization of the C2M model, but the products are also related to this because part of their aim is to make really great products, and this section relates back to this aim through writing about the specs of the products for readers' information. The "Products and Services" section of the version that I submitted for review has been substantially condensed and moderated from earlier versions - I have tried my best to focus on only the most important specs. At the same time, I have also condensed other sections a lot, so it may seem like there is more weight given to products whereas it probably has more to do with condensing other sections. I hope you can empathize with this and would welcome particular feedback on this.
As for your comment about the references being in Chinese, I will seek help through live chat and would appreciate other pointers for channels to resolve this issue. Thanks again for your help! Leahnaz (talk) 10:06, 10 December 2015 (UTC)
Hi Timtrent,
I improved the PubNub submission's referencing as per your comments and the exchange of messages we had. I'm anxiously waiting for a follow up review to confirm that the information is now verifiable, and there is clear evidence of why the PubNub subject is notable and worthy of inclusion in the encyclopedia.
I'm grateful for your help in considering the PubNub article for inclusion in the encyclopedia.
Yigal59 (talk) 18:05, December 3, 2015 (UTC)
Hi Timtrent,
I read all your comments and feedback, and you have my word of honor that I take full and complete attention to all of them, my last submission for review is absolutely not because I'm in any hurry or there is a boss out there telling me to get results, this is not my case.
My previous submission of the PubNub was on November 14, 2015 and until your recent review on December 3, 2015 I kept making improvements to the PubNub article almost every day, that was an improvement process of 19 days which turned to be the wrong improvements, your observation was correct, I did not get the proper direction what to improve as you provided, but rather vague and unclear feedback. My submission today is not the end of the road, and I'm committed to making changes every day based on your comments and feedback.
At this stage I have no idea when the PubNub will be reviewed, but I'll keep making improvements irrespective to when the review will take place, so please do not consider my submission today as ignoring your comments or feedback, to the contrary I spent few hours today, and I'll continue making improvement each and every day until the review, and I'm also committed to improve the PubNub article even after it will be approved.

Hi Timtrent,
I can't thank you enough for the time you spent and the effort you put to provide me the in-depth input and feedback. Words cannot express my appreciation for all that you did.
I followed your feedback to its fullest without any shortcuts, and I "got rid" of all references and citations which were tagged as "fail", and I did so while going thru each one of them and understanding the reason(s) they should not be included in the first place.
I strongly feel that the PubNub article in its current state should pass Wikipedia:CORP and I'd like to submit PubNub article for review, but I hesitate, since I'm not sure if I need to include any additional citations at this stage or not.
I'm grateful for your guidance on this matter.
Yigal59 (talk) 23:21, December 4, 2015 (UTC)
Hi Timtrent,
I strongly feel that the information on the PubNub article is correct and adequate, and any removal of copy will be a misrepresentation and incorrect depiction of the subject.
I Resubmit it and will be grateful for your consideration of the PubNub into the Encyclopedia.
Yigal59 (talk) 00:02, December 5, 2015 (UTC)
Hi Timtrent,
First I want to extended my gratitude for your help and leadership.
Now that the PubNub article was approve, others in Cyberspace are free to make changes and contribute to it.
Have a wonderful weekend.

On 13 December 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Keith White (yachtsman), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that yachtsman Keith White set out on 25 October 2015 to make a literally single-handed solo global circumnavigation? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Keith White (yachtsman). 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. |

Hi,
thanks for preventing the deletion of my article but it is a pity that the uniqueness of the topic is not understood. EU competition law has been the first and traditional area where the EU has had enforcement power vis-a-vis companies. This has changed quite a lot in the recent decade (ECB and ESMA are among new supervisors, who can enforce law directly in relation to private actors. This has been neglected so far! I am now researching this area from an academic perspective and teaching a course on that. I thought that it was also a good idea to make this information my and other students, practitioners and the public about it. My plan was to start this page, develop it gradually and since wiki pages can be edited by others, invite others to develop this page with me...can I not proceed this way?
Thank you for your reaction. Mira — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mira Scholten (talk • contribs) 19:25, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

Hi there,
You are receiving this message as you have been involved with the Kevin Gorman Arbitration case. I just wanted to let you know that the case timetable has been changed - evidence now needs to be presented by 22 December 2015, the workshop closes 31 December 2015, and the Proposed decision is targeted to be posted 3 January 2016.
I would therefore be grateful if you could submit any additional evidence as soon as possible.

Hello Tim! (Sidenote: I voted for you for ArbCom – it's too bad that prior time commitments forced you to drop out!...) Anyway, I have a quick question – can anyone leave an ((AFC comment)) at an article in Draft space? Or is the use of this template explicitly restricted to "regular" AfC personnel? I'm asking because I'd like to leave a comment at Draft:Ricky Garcia about the recent AfD of the Ricky Garcia (actor) article.

Hi, this is our first article in Wikipedia, can you tell us what exactly is the reason for rejecting? It should not sound like an advertisement or PR etc, but simply a description of the software CAESES. Which expressions were the reasons for rejecting it? How can we improve this article so that it gets accepted?
Thanks a lot for your help in this, we are eager to learn from you to improve this and future articles, and to join the Wikipedia community.
Thanks for your help and quick response. I've tried to adjust it according to your comments, but I am not sure whether I did everything correctly. I also remove the rights-reserved character. FSAG is an abbreviation for FRIENDSHIP SYSTEMS AG.

Hey Trent of Wikipedia. May I know your last name and where are you located? How do I reach you? Will you be at the Wikimedia party in San Francisco? I'm kind of hurt that you turned down my article. You see, I'm the REAL Princess Leia (Lucas), who grew up and worked with Georgie Lucas for years, and my life is the one the Star Wars movies may be based upon. I had severe amnesia for over 40 years due to major trauma, (from the US government, among others) and just got my memory back recently, (starting in late 2012), which may be why Georgie and Disney started up the Star Wars movies again. Also, my article describes the very latest brain technology that I used to recover, which is pretty big news in the scientific world, especially given that my own foundations are the ones that developed the technology, and are building the equipment that will utilize the same for other trauma survivors. And, it turns out that I am the best qualified person to explain this since I basically invented it, which is why I wrote the initial article myself. Also, I'm a former federal agent and covert operative, agent Lucas, which I also didn't remember, until now. You should be able to verify this at www.cia.gov. So you see, I thought some of your readers might be interested in me and my scientific info. for reasons OTHER than promoting myself or my foundations, which honestly, I'm not sure that I need to do. So, if you don't want me around, I'll leave. But, I want to make SURE that I tell people correctly, that you asked me to leave for non-compliance with Wikipedia rules. Also, Disney and Georgie can probably figure out the truth of what happened from this entry, so no problem. Sorry I disappointed you. Thanks anyway, from Princess Leia Lucas®.

It appears that you may have been tagging it for speedy deletion at the same time as I moved into from user space into draft space, and was about to decline it as an advertisement, but you were also declining it as an advertisement and were tagging it for speedy.

I just came across your thoughts on adminship, quite accidentally. I found it quite thought provoking. I've been toying (just toying, mind you) with running for adminship at some point in the future; your essay has not dissuaded me, but if I ever do run, I will certainly take it into consideration. In particular, the point that every admin action should have the scrutiny of two editors struck me as something very basic that we do not give enough thought to.

Hi Tim,
I was searching Rightmove for images of Rock Cottage and ran across your blog. Just prior to you acquiring Rock Cottage, rented Dec79 to July80 during a family breakup, I lived in Rock Cottage as a 9 year old boy. Before your ground floor extension and any central heating. There was an open fire grate and an old musket hanging over the fire place. The place was freezing!
Around 2004/5 I passed by Rock Cottage with my then Chinese partner but no one was home. We briefly spoke to the neighbour at the rear, he might have mentioned my visit back then.
I was wondering if you had any images of the house, garden and area that are closer to the early 80s when you first moved in, as I might have remembered it. Sadly I took none.

Your message duplicates (as you noted) your message that you are not on WIKI much. That's fine however, given that you are the person who apparently rejected the WAC entry by Taylor Kuhn a more expedient and responsible message would include an indication as to how to proceed and with whom??? so that we can all move forward -- really not much point in repeating the already stated without providing actionable instructions.
SO to whom shall I direct my inquiries and contest the rejection of this amply documented historical movement that is featured in the New York Public Library, has been the feature of numerous print media articles, and impacted the lives of tens of thousands of people?

Irony as well: indicating that "you might improve it, but you have a conflict of interest."
Especially considering that I only intervened on behalf of the author of the entry that was rejected for having too few references which I then provided in my letter trying to get her article loaded.
Furthermore, I no longer have a copy of Taylor's article not sure what you mean by comments you added to it "on the article" (which) (when) (where).
You do not have to help me but it would be appreciated if there was someone with whom to communicate in full. I was given a link indicating that you were responsible for the rejection of Taylor Kuhn's article (better written than the one included). I was asked to follow up with you. That is all I did. Once. And I got a oneline message that repeating that you weren't available. I left you alone in the intervening months OUT OF COURTESY and imagining that a more useful response would be forthcoming or that you would perhaps forward this situation to someone else more involved and/or willing.
As for the entry that exists well it appears to have been added this past March so apparently during the FemWIKI drive and likely by a student given the writing so after both Taylor and I were in contact with you.
So as one of the founding members of WAC and as the author of the only historically replete history of the organization, CAN I or CAN"T I submit corrections and improvements? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tracy ann essoglou (talk • contribs) 02:27, 16 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi, re: your question at WT:Notifications#Overwhelmed by notifications that do not go away - Explanation: There are only 25 notifications shown at a time in the flyout, and hence the "Mark all as read" button only clears 25 at a time, to avoid someone dismissing notifications they haven't had a chance to see. So, you can either clear them in batches of 25 that way (recommended) and it will eventually decrease to under "99+"; or you can visit special:notifications directly and view the new (!) in-development interface for seeing the messages grouped by day, where each day's messages can be marked as read. Sidenote: There is a feature-request to add a button for "mark absolutely everything as read" (phab:T136614), but that only has 1 user-request and it risks adding clutter to the interface for very infrequent value, so it is low on the priority list. Hope that helps, and sorry for the delay in replying. Do let me know if you have any other feedback on Notifications (positive, or constructive criticism/suggestions!), and thanks again.

Hi! I have tried to modify the text and added references, just as I was encouraged by the reviewer. Since this method of abrasive blasting is quite new, there is little updated text about this topic to be found (the technology have existed for a while, but have not worked properly until recent years). I believe there should be an article about this topic under abrasive blasting so I tried to write it myself :) Vacuumblasting (talk) 11:46, 6 October 2016 (UTC)
Hello Timtrent. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator.
Administrator note You have been grandfathered to this group based on prior patrolling activity - the technical flag for the group will be added to your account after the next software update. You do not need to apply at WP:PERM. 20:56, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi Timtrent,
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.

If each reviewer does only 10 reviews a day over five days, the backlog will be down to zero and the daily input can then be processed by each reviewer doing only 2 or 3 reviews a day - that's about 5 minutes work!
Let's get that over and done with in time to relax for the holidays.
Not only are New Page Reviewers the guardians of quality of new articles, they are also in a position to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged for deletion and maintenance and that new authors are not being bitten. This is an important feature of your work. Read about it at the new Monitoring the system section in the tutorial.
With some tweaks to their look, and some additional features, Page Curation and New Pages Feed could easily be the best tools for patrollers and reviewers. We've listed most of what what we need at the 2016 WMF Wishlist Survey. Voting starts on 28 November - please turn out to make our bid the Foundation's top priority. Please help also by improving or commenting on our Wishlist entry at the Community Wishlist Survey. Many other important user suggestions are listed at at Page Curation.

AfC Reviewers are asked to be especially on the look out 08:00-20:00 UTC (that's local London time - check your USA and AUS times) on Thursday 8 December for new pages. The BBC together with Wikimedia UK is holding a large 12-hour editathon. Many new articles and drafts are expected. See BBC 100 Women 2016: How to join our edit-a-thon.
