Hello Viewmont Viking. I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of Cougars (band), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: "embarked on several extensive US and European tours" is enough for A7 not to apply. Thank you. BangJan1999 14:39, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
I’m writing to ask that my recent edits to the Wikipedia page of the Golden Crown Literary Society, a nonprofit organization, be restored. I want to assure you that GCLS is an all volunteer organization in which I have no financial interest and benefit financially from in no way. GCLS recently received a restricted grant from a charitable organization for its Goldie Awards and, as I am not an author and am nearly 75-years-old, I can again assure you that I will not benefit financially for this grant.
Rather, I’m working with a volunteer committee to revise the seriously outdated GCLS Wikipedia page to reflect recent changes in the organization’s mission, goals and objectives, and Goldie Awards. Time is of the essence because we expect widespread publicity after the new cash prizes are announced on August 21. We expect newcomers to turn to Wikipedia for information and we want that information to be complete, accurate and up to date.
To accomplish this, I created a personal Wikipedia account last week and began making updates little by little as I learned how to do so. Then I turned to more extensive updating as I became more efficient, finally learning how to use footnotes and references. I was very careful to indicate either “a minor change” or a “watch this page” for all revisions. I was so happy with my progress through yesterday but now all my edits have been reversed. As stated above, I’m appealing to you to restore my updates at your earliest convenience so I can complete the process prior to August 21.
Given that I have a Ph.D. in Mass Communications from Indiana University and spent 27 years as director of research for a major newspaper company, I understand the importance of accurate reporting and thorough source documentation. Please note that the source for most of the needed updates is, in fact, GCLS’s website, which fulfills Wikipedia requirements that information be accessible to others. There is a dearth of information from such sources as journals, books and newspaper, given the nature of the information.
Thank you for your kind attention and I look forward to a speedy resolution of this matter.

Hello Viewmont Viking,
I recently added a maturity model (PEMM - Process and Enterprise Maturity Model) to the Maturity Model page. You removed it for being advertisement, which really surprised me. The reason I added the model is due to my process management study program at the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria where I learned about the model. Right now I am writing a thesis about maturity models and I simply wanted to add that one to the page (just for completeness). What was the reason for classifying it as advertisement?
Currently I am researching and writing about maturity models in general and I would alter the description of maturity model according to my findings (as it even has already been mentioned in the article talk and I already know that the description is not accurate). What do I have to consider so my correction would stick?
Thanks in advance!

Hello Viewmont Viking, would be interested why my addition of InsideBlue to the Lazarus IDE page has been rejected. It's an open-source tool done with Lazarus IDE much like the other tools in the section "Examples of applications produced with Lazarus". Thanks. LinsErik ( talk) 10:31, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
You recently reverted my first use of a hashtag in twitter. Saying it was poorly sourced. Could you help me improve it instead of removing it? I am kind of new in Wikipedia and I can use the help of someone more experienced. I didn't quote my first tweet with hashtag since it is in spanish, so I picked one in english that is also previous to the messina one. Thanks in advance Htmllife ( talk) 14:59, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
I deleted the speedy tag. Let's give the guy some time. It's in draft space so it's doing no harm.
This company is a player in its niche so an article in main space should go to AfD to be deleted.
Thanks for caring about our content.

Hi Viewmont Viking,
As a rookie Wikipaedian, I’d like to ask for your help!
You reverted my edit to the Lighthouse page over the weekend quoting the ‘Manual of Style’ and I would like to know what specifically I did wrong so I can improve my edit. Any help you can share would be appreciated.
(Link to Lighthouse revision history edit page: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Lighthouse_(British_organisation)&action=history )
I’ve also had another go at writing a more encyclopaedic entry and would like your feedback on it please, before making another edit:
“Following allegations about Lighthouse made in the UK based newspaper, The Daily Mail in April 2022, the south african newspaper the Saturday Star interviewed chairman Paul Waugh who stated he was taking legal action against the Daily Mail.”
(And then link to this article as before)
Many thanks for your help!

Hello, Viewmont Viking. I don't see why you deleted my edit on the page for 'Cash Converters' about DankPods. I don't see any problem, I didn't write a lot about it, and I made sure to use proper language. Similarly, I stuck to the truth and I don't understand what I got wrong.
And looking around your page, it appears you've deleted quite a bit about sports. Why were you drawn to Cash Converters? And why do you think this was necessary? Have you watched these? Do you have a problem with DankPods' work? Or- this is a long shot- do you find pleasure in deleting and undoing Wikipedia changes?
I'm not mad, just curious. What'd I do?

Hello there, I see you have deleted my submission for the Education Commission in Hong Kong. I want to know why you deleted this. This entry was created by 3 other students (plus myself) as part of our university studies (HKU) in which we were tasked to create and upload a wikipedia page. Since the previous entry on the Education Commission was lacking content, we thought to add to this. Please let me know what concerns you have and if you would like to add anything to our submission.

Hello,
Could you assist me in updating the Stop TB Partnership page? The information is quite incomplete and outdated. I don't think the edit I have made are self promoting but if they are kindly suggest a better way to present it? I also find it peculiar that the article states that the information is outdated, yet whenever it is edited by people it is consistently struck down.
Any help would be greatly appreciated... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 105.161.225.252 ( talk) 19:39, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
Hello. I am a professor at the University of Hong Kong whose students wrote the Education Commission update that you deleted. I checked their original entry and found that the biographies of the Commission leadership could be considered promotional. The summaries of the Commission publications, without proper contextualisation referencing public and industry reactions, could also be considered promotional. We will resubmit after revising these parts of the entry. Feel free to respond to the student posting on your talk page if there are other outstanding issues. 119.237.167.185 ( talk) 00:08, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

I am not sure why you keep reverting my edits. Please discuss any issues with me.

Hello Viewmont Viking,
I recently made an edit to the pyroluria section of the Orthomolecular Psychiatry page on Wikipedia ( /info/en/?search=Orthomolecular_psychiatry). My edit was intended to update the section with recent research findings, supported by two articles from recognized scientific journals and a comprehensive post citing a range of further scholarly articles.
I understand the importance of maintaining the integrity and accuracy of Wikipedia content and appreciate the role of experienced editors in this process.
I would be grateful if you could provide specific feedback or reasons for the reversion of my edit. My intention was to contribute valuable and credible information, with a focus on the most recent research findings, adhering to Wikipedia's guidelines for verifiability and neutrality. If there were any issues with the content or sources of my edit, I would welcome your guidance to improve my contribution.
Thank you very much.
Best regards,

Hi @ Viewmont Viking: How are you? I removed the airmail reference from the article, which you strangely reverted without any knowledge of the previous state of this spam BLP article. You don't need to a take a reference to a reliable sources noticeboard to know that it is junk. It looks and reads like a clickbait site. I've worked at Afc, NPP and coin for years and know how to check a news site for validity. It may be hybrid right enough, doing that to ensure it survives but still doesn't read or look right. That reference was used to prove build an attack section with no collaborating references to ensure that WP:NPOV was being followed. The thing is completely unbalanced. You should have taken it to the reliable sources noticeboard at the time instead of leaving that junk in. I'll kick it off today and if its good it go in. I've taken it out in the meantime. scope_creep Talk 09:53, 7 January 2024 (UTC)
Hi @ Viewmont Viking, I saw you reverted my edit in this article. What do you mean by "possible spam"? Gemdira ( talk) 15:24, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
You keep on deleting important information on Khyber Medical College and labelling it as promotional. How is it promotional? Is stating facts promotional? I even provided suitable sources. And this is the kind of information everyone looks for in a medical school (in our country at least). What you deem promotional may be extremely important information to someone else.

Thank you for adding in the talk page that you do have a COI. Individuals who have a COI whether they are being paid or not, whether the organization is for profit or not for profit, often have a difficult time writing about the organization in a neutral fashion. Your edits had that issue. Please recommend your edits on the talk page utilizing the tools I shared with you on your talk page. In addition Wikipedia is not concerned with what the organization says about itself. We look at what 3rd party Reliable Sources say about the organization.-- VViking Talk Edits 15:52, 6 February 2024 (UTC)

Once again you have baselessly accused me of COI, and refused to engage in conversation on the talk page. As your own talk page shows you seem to consistently engaging in edit warring/disruptive editing on other article without engaging in consensus.
Unless you can prove the irving group of companies is indeed a real company, and address the evidence stated within the talk page of the article, that illustrates it indeed is not a real company, Im going to have to ask you to stop disruptively editing the page with false information.
