Hello, Yesterday I edited an article on David Lowe to include a reference to Staffordshire University's list of honorary doctorates - David Lowe is under the 2005 entries. This has now been removed an replaced with "citation needed" again. I am struggling to understand how we can get a better citation than the University's list of honorary doctorates. Any help or advise would be welcome — Preceding unsigned comment added by Estmarc ( talk • contribs) 12:19, 20 October 2016 (UTC)
Dear FoCuSandLeArN, I must say I agree with you that I was expressing a personal enthusiasm over the Laurence Durrell talking-book recordings made by the fine English actor, Nigel Anthony (I've long admired him). But visiting the page again, now, you seem to have removed much more of the body of the article, some of it with genuinely informative information that I, myself, was very glad to learn... am I right? Also, I'd certainly gladly rewrite my own adition in a less personaly enthused voice: I accept your editorial position! Many thanks, R.S. (Rio de Janeiro). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 179.218.83.124 ( talk) 18:03, 20 October 2016 (UTC)

Hey FoCuS,
I apologize for removing the "Speedy Deletion Notice" from my page. I was just trying to remove all the content to eradicate and subsequently neutralize the promotional content, and didn't realize the notice would be embedded in the code.
My apologies.

Hi! Why are you reverting my edit? -- AdityaChanana ( talk) 18:56, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
Hello FoCuSandLeArN. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as mark pages 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. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at
page reviewer talk.
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. Kudpung กุดผึ้ง ( talk) 22:18, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

How can on claim that shown pictures are from megalithic periods and also where are these pictures coming from ? what is the source of these pictures ? Can you name the Jaffna University members involved in the mentioned excavation and where are the verified articles of the same , can you show this on the page ?
After acceptable answers to these questions, I would rest my case.

Can you please tell me why the first page has been deleted? They are 2 separate things. The first refers to the music album by William Control, and the second refers to the book he also wrote.

Hi FoCuSandLeArN,
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.

Dear FoCuSandLeArN,
I am the Brand owner of Bun&Bunee and the changes you have made do not reflect facts, so please stop editing our page to reflect the wrong info.
The creators of the show we have now listed are the actual creators of the show. The ones you have listed are in fact NOT the creators of the show, nor did Miramax have anything to do with this show.
Even though you may think our page reads like advertising you should respect our outhority as the brand owners.
We will, over time get the page in the shape it should be for WikiPedia, however our goal now is to get the page current, so that it reflects the true and correct information and gives more information about the show.
We are happy to entertain suggestions, in the interest of learning the correct way to construct a WikiPedia page.
But we do not appreciate you reverting the info of our brand to something that is not true. In this way you are doing us and our brand a disservice.
Please stop doing this as it is a real pain and causes us to have to go back each day and check and re-update the info
Your cooperation in this regard is much appreciated.
Best!

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.

Hey there, just wanted to contest the speedy deletion of the Charlie Zeleny American Drummer Biography Page. His page has been up for 5 years but was completely outdated (from 2011) and am trying to update his page with all his current bands and projects including Whiplash, Gala, Thalia and other bands/artists/sessions of note he has done. All the references are being put in over the next couple days. But I was able to grab all the data from credible sources throughout the internet with his updates. He is significant drummer and member of the session drummer community. He has been featured in hundreds of publications and is even found in hard cover music history books listed at the bottom of the press section.
Also posted this on the actual article: This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because Charlie Zeleny is an important member of the American session musician community and is a drummer who plays with major bands and artists including Blotted Science, Behold the Arctopus, Jordan Rudess, Terry Bozzio, Joe Lynn Turner, Steve Augeri, The Great Kat, Gala, Thalia, Outasight among many others. This article is not vandalism, SPAM, or an attack page against Charlie Zeleny or anyone.
Furthermore, this article has been on Wikipedia successfully for 5 years and are current changes are updates to the Biography of Charlie Zeleny including new and updated musical projects. All References are being added over the next couple of days. Please do not delete this article during this update process.
Charlie Zeleny has played on over 135 records, many by major bands and artists on major labels. He is also well renowned specifically for his Drumageddon series of YouTube videos garnering over 1 million views and thousands of subscribers. He's been featured and interviewed in hundreds of publications, received front page newspaper and magazine coverage and been featured on the front page online magazine articles, blogs and interviews. Also, Charlie Z is mentioned in 4 music history books as being significant here with references added here:
Hard Cover Books: Mean Deviation: Four Decades of Progressive Heavy Metal by Jeff Wagner[17], The 100 Greatest Metal Guitarists Book by Joel McIver[18], New Wave of American Heavy Metal by Gary Sharpe-Young[19] and Encyclopedia of Bohemian and Czech-American Biography, Volume 1 by Miloslav Rechcigl Jr[20].
Please let me know if there are any additional edits that need to be made to this article to save it from the Speedy Deletion process. Thank you very much. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.35.194.25 ( talk) 22:47, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
