Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove
Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in
Articles for deletion debates, as you did with
Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of pioneers in computer science. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create
consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please
comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. In particular, the comments you redacted were valid criticism of your own remarks on the AfD ("Your accusation ... is paranoid") and not a personal attack (which would instead begin "You are..."), so you had no valid reason for redacting them. And in any case you were too involved to have been redacting them yourself — that's something only uninvolved administrators should be doing. —

[removed] Articles for deletion notices from articles". Nor have I "
removed other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates", with the exception of a small number of personal attacks per WP:RPA: "Derogatory comments about other editors may be removed by any editor". (I noted that specific justification for my actions here and here, and even resorted to using Template:RPA to ensure absolute clarity.)
in any case you were too involved to have been redacting them yourself — that's something only uninvolved administrators should be doing." is false: see quote above from WP:RPA.
For what it's worth, I just saw the section at AN/I (since closed). Horrible place, and project space in general tends to easily become an arena for fighting rather than discussion. So anyway, I wanted to say that while I have gone to bat for editors' right to use "naughty words", and while I do think your refactoring was poorly done (if you must do that, leave <redacted> in place of what you've removed, but personally I prefer to leave such excisions for an admin, merely registering my disapproval), I do think you had a valid point about what you redacted, and we don't only need rhinoceros-hided Wikipedians. So I for one hope you do come back. Yngvadottir ( talk) 15:08, 14 November 2017 (UTC)
Facto Post – Issue 6 – 15 November 2017
![]() WikidataCon Berlin 28–9 October 2017Under the heading rerum causas cognescere, the first ever Wikidata conference got under way in the Tagesspiegel building with two keynotes, One was on YAGO, about how a knowledge base conceived ten years ago if you assume automatic compilation from Wikipedia. The other was from manager Lydia Pintscher, on the "state of the data". Interesting rumours flourished: the mix'n'match tool and its 600+ datasets, mostly in digital humanities, to be taken off the hands of its author Magnus Manske by the WMF; a Wikibase incubator site is on its way. Announcements came in talks: structured data on Wikimedia Commons is scheduled to make substantive progress by 2019. The lexeme development on Wikidata is now not expected to make the Wiktionary sites redundant, but may facilitate automated compilation of dictionaries. ![]() And so it went, with five strands of talks and workshops, through to 11 pm on Saturday. Wikidata applies to GLAM work via metadata. It may be used in education, raises issues such as author disambiguation, and lends itself to different types of graphical display and reuse. Many millions of SPARQL queries are run on the site every day. Over the summer a large open science bibliography has come into existence there. Wikidata's fifth birthday party on the Sunday brought matters to a close. See a dozen and more reports by other hands. Links

Facto Post – Issue 7 – 15 December 2017
![]() A new bibliographical landscapeAt the beginning of December, Wikidata items on individual scientific articles passed the 10 million mark. This figure contrasts with the state of play in early summer, when there were around half a million. In the big picture, Wikidata is now documenting the scientific literature at a rate that is about eight times as fast as papers are published. As 2017 ends, progress is quite evident. Behind this achievement are a technical advance ( fatameh), and bots that do the lifting. Much more than dry migration of metadata is potentially involved, however. If paper A cites paper B, both papers having an item, a link can be created on Wikidata, and the information presented to both human readers, and machines. This cross-linking is one of the most significant aspects of the scientific literature, and now a long-sought open version is rapidly being built up. ![]() The effort for the lifting of copyright restrictions on citation data of this kind has had real momentum behind it during 2017. WikiCite and the I4OC have been pushing hard, with the result that on CrossRef over 50% of the citation data is open. Now the holdout publishers are being lobbied to release rights on citations. But all that is just the beginning. Topics of papers are identified, authors disambiguated, with significant progress on the use of the four million ORCID IDs for researchers, and proposals formulated to identify methodology in a machine-readable way. P4510 on Wikidata has been introduced so that methodology can sit comfortably on items about papers. More is on the way. OABot applies the unpaywall principle to Wikipedia referencing. It has been proposed that Wikidata could assist WorldCat in compiling the global history of book translation. Watch this space. And make promoting #1lib1ref one of your New Year's resolutions. Happy holidays, all! ![]() Links
