Hi there
I created a new page for the ZMAK wrestling promotion in Greece. I was away from 23/12-3/1 and I see it doesn't exist. Can I please have some feedback as to why so I can try and 'fix' some things? I see the reason as to "Unsourced newly founded wrestling promotion of no notability" but ZMAK is extremely popular at the moment in Greece, several international pro-wrestlers are asking to work for it and it is in major news websites for sports, lifestyle etc. eg Article from vice.com [1] or another credited site called mixanitoxronou. [2]

The reason I reverted to a redirect was that the original article is at the Shripur spelling (which is claimed to be the correct transliteration), but Spramodyadav is insisting on Shreepur. (He is also very insistently trying to get an article about himself, with no apparent sign of notability.) If the Shreepur spelling is correct, the original article should be moved back to that spelling. Otherwise, we've got a copy and paste move by Spramodyadav and the original work concealed in a redirect. I take no stand on which spelling is correct. Peridon (talk) 12:04, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
I've having a hard time working up much enthusiasm for WP these days. Any thoughts on Devi Khajishvili? The page needs a reviewer and it seems more up your alley than mine. Papaursa (talk) 21:23, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

I am trying to work out why the version of firefox in my old imac seems to jump the window so often and I have almost given up making compensatory moves lest I do things exactly like that, and the proximity of the logout button on the top bar to contributions as it is configured is another issue... oh well, thanks for your understanding JarrahTree 13:24, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for fixing my categorizing into article space from two pages in my sandbox. I wasn't aware of the protocol for dealing with this and I appreciate the fix. I had also just tried a "move" of one of these sandbox pages which went awry. I think everything should be back to normal now. Kumboloi (talk) 18:01, 30 January 2017 (UTC)
We now have 826 New Page Reviewers!
Most of us requested the user right at PERM, expressing a wish to be able to do something about the huge backlog, but the chart on the right does not demonstrate any changes to the pre-user-right levels of October.
The backlog is still steadily growing at a rate of 150 a day or 4,650 a month. Only 20 reviews a day by each reviewer over the next few days would bring the backlog down to a managable level 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!
It didn't work in time to relax for the Xmas/New Year holidays. Let's see if we can achieve our goal before Easter, otherwise by Thanksgiving it will be closer to 70,000.
Remember that we are the only guardians of quality of new articles, we alone have to ensure that pages are being correctly tagged by non-Reviewer patrollers and that new authors are not being bitten.
This is even more important and extra vigilance is required considering Orangemoody, and
Kudpung is stepping down after 6 years as unofficial coordinator of New Page Patrolling/Reviewing. There is enough work for two people and two coords are now required. Details are at NPR Coordinators; nominate someone or nominate yourself. Date for the actual suffrage will be published later.

Hi, I'm DrStrauss. I wanted to let you know that I saw the page you reviewed, Moneyfacts.co.uk, and have un-reviewed it again. If you have any questions, please ask them on my talk page. Thank you.
Wikipedia appears to be making hasty misjudgments. (a) this is not a page about a "club"; as it is clearly a "School" and a recognized School (P'ai) at that; Tested and Accepted by ICKF R. o. China 1985-1987. T'ien Ti Tao has been favourably featured in many British and American Martial arts magazines, newspaper articles and other media. It has been fully tested and accepted by a world-wide Chinese Arts regulator, the International Chinese Kuoshu Federation (Taiwan) through what was the British Kuoshu Promotion Association in UK, and accepted as "Genuine traditional Chinese Arts" by them. This makes both the school and the event unique to British based Chinese Arts schools as well as a notably Historic Event. These three factors alone make it a notably historic. This suggests that whomsoever is suggesting the page for deletion is not only ignorant of the facts, but that Wiki is contra to its "encyclopedic" claims of noting historic references!
Wiki processes are seemingly too complex, too judgmental and often by not knowledgeable (not of the field) or perhaps even bias people. Noted with interest is a proposed deletion of a page on Master Wong, Ark Yuey. He was a remarkable historical figure in the Chinese Arts. Living in San Fran Cisco, he taught only Chinese at first. During the 1930's some American/s wanted to learn his Arts. They could not understand the Chinese terms, like Ch'uan-shu, so he translated learning as "Kung Fu"; to learn by hard work. This was the founding of the expression which is even now commonly used in Mainland China.
Other areas where Wiki is contradictory are, for example, having a page on Mixed Martial Arts/MMA. There is no such thing as MMA, unless a practitioner has gained skills in more than one recognized Martial Art. To teach would require Teaching Qualifications in two or more known Martial Arts. But even then, s/he would be a practitioner of (e.g.) Shotokan Karate and Jiujutsu. Wiki in giving a page dedicated to MMA gives unqualified credence to unqualified people who claim to be MMA Teachers!
Furthermore, many Wiki pages are based upon promotion, falsehoods and fiction. The whole concept seems to be randomly defined by its randomly self-appointed (?) editors and many facts overlooked by simple lack or depth of knowledge and experience, personal translation of Wiki Rules, etc.
Loosing faith in Wiki!
Hello PRehse. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Mark Godbeer, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: An article that is almost half about 2015/16 events is unlikely to be "substantially identical to the deleted version" when the deletion was in 2014. Thank you. ϢereSpielChequers 17:21, 11 February 2017 (UTC)
Hello,
I am an intern with Libraries Without Borders - I tried to edit the Libraries Without Borders page to be a separate page with more specific information to the US organization than the French one. My edits, however, were deleted. I believe this is a mistake.

Hi PRehse, you've reverted Xaysetha District saying Entries need at least one blue link - there was at least one blue link pointing to Saysetha District which alternatively is written Xaysetha. Btw: Lao name transliteration into English seem to be ambigous if starting with Xa* or Sa*. So could you please re-consider your revert? Regards --katpatuka (talk) 09:36, 14 February 2017 (UTC)
Hey, umm ... I reverted you, but I don't fully understand your rationale. If a redirect has the "MOS:" prefix, is it in the article namespace? If so, why do MOS:ISLAM, MOS:CHINA, MOS:JAPAN, and so on all exist? Does one need community consensus to establish these as "official shortcuts" or something?

I've been tinkering with the article about O-sensei for a bit now, and am just about ready to nominate it for FA - I need to do a bunch of work on the sources (since all the Encyclopedia of Aikido ones are now 404 errors...), but it's getting into shape. I wondered whether I could ask you to cast an eye over it when you have a bit of time, since I'm getting to the point where I'm too close to the text to be able to read it objectively. If you fancy a spot of proof-reading, I'd greatly appreciate your suggestions and input. Yunshui 雲水 11:21, 27 February 2017 (UTC)

Hi PRhese, there seems to be a bit of a problem with that redirect, plus I found a variety of technical problems when reverting, I was prevented from it I do not know why. First I was reverted without an explanation and citing "Talk" in the edit summary, but nothing to be found there. I noticed that the disambiguation page José Salamanca I created had an José Eliseo Salamanca talk page, totally out of place, but I was reverted. I should also excuse for some problems when writing on the edit summary, since I can hardly see its content. May I say, it is not very appropriate to own the name of the article for a tennis player from El Salvador few people know, as compared to the other José Salamanca, critical figure in finances and politics in the 19th century Spain. Hence I created the disambiguation page. So now the talk page of José (disambiguation) is still problematic. Help is appreciated. Thanks Iñaki LL (talk) 19:10, 4 March 2017 (UTC)
Dear Peter: Many thanks for your kind gesture and welcome message. I have been using wikipedia past many months and finally took the plunge of giving back to the community as a contributor.

It says it requires an administrator approval. thanks again and I look forward to learning more and hoping to contribute more. Agraable1 (talk) 15:36, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
Hi PRehse I created the disambiguation page as I was drafting the article for Rose Williams (Artist). You are right, I probably should have waited until the article was published, but that was the order my brain was working in.

Hi There
I hope you're well. I see you've recently reviewed my Sony Music UK page and that it is no longer live.
Sony Music UK is a completely different label from the main Sony label, therefore, I feel it needs it's own page. The label is one of the most successful labels in the world with hundreds of millions worth of sales across the roster.
There are similar pages for Sony Music Austrailia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Music_Australia
And Sony Music Nashville https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Music_Nashville
Would you be able to let me know why this page has not been approved so that I can try and try again?

Hi,
Can you please stop acting like you are alone on Wikipedia? Cătinaș was a finalist in K-1 twice, fighting in the Final 16 events. Kleibl was also a K-1 fighter. César Almeida, Cristian Spetcu and Marija Malenica are their champions, last two are actually first champions at some weight classes. Stauros Exakoustidis is that guy that defeated Spetcu, and is fighting now in China. Tarik Khbabez is the guy that won the Superkombat finals and defeated clearly Roman Kryklia. Mustapha Haida and Cedric Manhoef don't have pages but they are actually top 10 in their weight classes. Actually only Cedric still is, sixth in the world or so. Yousri Belgaroui will be top 10 in the world at some weight class soon, and made debut in GLORY. Setdany (talk) 15:04, 23 March 2017 (UTC)
In the future, if you tag a page as WP:A10 for being a duplicate of another page, please look into the history to see if it has recently been converted from a redirect to that page, and restore that version if you can (e.g. ). Even if it wasn't previously a redirect, the very fact that the new page was created might mean that it's a valid search term and should be redirected to the page it duplicates.

I was searching for martial arts articles that were tagged for notability and reference issues that hadn't been edited this year and came across this article. Once again I defer to you and Yunshui when it comes to aikido. If you believe he's notable then you may want to remove the notability tag from that article. I also created a list of articles in my sandbox that met the criteria I just mentioned and that seemed of questionable notability to me when I took a quick look at them. I wouldn't mind your comments on them. Papaursa (talk) 22:59, 1 April 2017 (UTC)
Sorry to bother, but I have noticed you have done a great deal of editing on martial arts topics including one I have infested frequently. I have a question on the Importance/Notoriety of individual practitioners.
Specifically, looking for a reference/avoiding work I wandered to the Shorin-ryu page. I noticed some grammar problems, but I also noticed a list of high-ranking practitioners. One of them does not seem to actually practice or practiced Shorin-ryu. He was also listed merely as "(Black Belt)." The others mainly seem to be "soke" of their own styles. I removed the first after some research and left a topic in the article's Talk page asking for references/correction. The others I did not remove but also invited references to their Shorin-ryu grades/standing.
"Did I Do Good?
What constitutes "important" in martial arts will generate a lot of flame certainly, particularly in a world where anyone can buy a "soke" and a "10 Degree Grand Master" from webpages! There are significant practitioners, however, but if they are not notable enough to merit their own linked page are they notable for Wiki? Take Chuck Norris. Whatever one thinks of him positive or negative he is known so including him as a notable figure in one of his martial arts pages certainly works. The problem I have is we can lists literal crap-tons [Citation needed.--Ed.] of practitioners in just the US who are maybe all Great and Wonderful People but outside of the realm of their school/organization really are not notable.
Sorry for the Long-Winded question; just want to avoid mistakes in the future/sore posteriors: "HOW CAN YOU REMOVE GRAND-MASTER ED GRUBERMAN!!!! HE RECEIVE A BOOT TO THE HEAD FROM MASTER!!!!!!11"
^^, TheDoctorX (talk) 20:53, 4 April 2017 (UTC)
TheDoctorX You did fine. Generally if the names are in text there is not much you can do but long lists of Notable people should have either their own page or a reference to a reliable source as per WP:LISTS. That's true in any type of article but something about martial arts seems to attract name cruft.Peter Rehse (talk) 07:45, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
Thanks so much! I will leave it "as is" for now. If no one responds to the Talk question on the other people after a month or so, I will research each individual to see if he is actually connected to Shorin-ryu in some verifiable fashion. TheDoctorX (talk) 07:54, 5 April 2017 (UTC)
Hello PRehse, I don't understand the WP:A7 you and another placed on my talk page to speedy delete the page Sierra Ventures. It's a redirect page. It has no CSD tag on it. It has no history of edits at all. It is not really planned for speedy deletion. It is a valid redirect, one of hundreds I have created over the years.

I would like your opinion/criticism/Wrath from Above on the Tatsuo Shimabuku history under History
I know I need to fix the Reference section ^^,
This is NOT a request to resolve a T3h DREADLY EDIT WAR!!11![!--Ed.] or other such conflict.
I and another editor Billyinthedarbies are politely trying to sort out references which disagree with one another--one denounces the other in fact! As you know, martial arts "scholarly references" are worth about as much as the paper they are vanity printed on! However, if you have actual evidence cited, I do not think that can be discounted with a simple wave of the hand. Nevertheless, I do not think anyone wants a Wiki article consisting of a combined summary of "He sucks!" "No, he sucks!" dueling references.
Perhaps just cut out most of the details, list the respective references, and let the reader do his own research. I tried to do that in my "combination" edit I just made, but before I go on, I figured I would ask for another pair of eyes with more experience.
One Other Thing the article critical of common histories of Isshin-ryu is listed as written by "Staff":
Classical Fighting Arts Staff (2012). "Isshin Ryu Karate: A Riddle Wrapped in an Enigma". Classical Fighting Arts. 2 (46): 52–59.
According to Billyinthedarbies and the competing reference he cites:
"Rebuttal to David Chambers' article about Tatsuo Shimabuku & Isshin-ryu Training | The Isshin-ryu School of Karate, Hackettstown, NJ". Retrieved 2017-04-24.
the author of the Classical Fighting Arts article is actually the Editor/Publisher David Chambers. This does not surprise me: he basically is the entire staff of the publication! Billyinthedarbies feels he should be identified as the author even thought the article lists "staff." I have no idea what is appropriate.
Thanks so much! TheDoctorX (talk) 06:54, 3 May 2017 (UTC)
Hello, I have added a NPOV tag to the article in question. My questions actually concern 1) undue weight and 2) proportionality. The single, spurious article seems to derail the "History" subsection intended to be a bio of Tatsuo Shimabuku. Rather than contextualizing the non-mainstream point of view alongside other sources, the section language once again leads with it (after the subject's name and birth/death dates). The following information becomes a referendum on that single source's rather sensational allegations rather than a clear, balanced, and brief bio of Shimabuku. Thank you for your attention in this matter. Billyinthedarbies (talk) 19:19, 5 May 2017 (UTC)
_______
I am glad the other editor has added to this request for "another pair of eyes" as it were to look at the article. "Spurious" means quite an entirely different thing than I think he believes it to mean, and as a dismissal of one article, one could just as--unjustly--apply it to his source. Given this uncritical dismissal I must agree that it rather calls into question his neutrality, for the veracity of the history of a Founding Figure given by said figure and followers is, indeed, relevant to a section on the history of such a figure. Similarly, the veracity of a source is relevant to the value of the source.
Thus a "fresh pair of eyes." Please refer this to others. From my--utterly neutral, unspurious, but wholly cromulent--perspective I think it stands well enough as it is minus the grammar/taste tweaking. It acknowledges the controversy--which does exist--while also acknowledging different sources. Readers may evaluate both critically.

Thanks for your quick work on China's Response to the West (book). But I’m not clear why we should cut the red links, and there was no edit summary.
Maybe I have misread or missed something, but my use was based on WP:REDLINK, which says “Do not remove red links unless you are certain that Wikipedia should not have an article on the subject, or if the red link could be replaced with a link to an article section where the subject is covered as part of a broader topic.” I have draft articles for these red links, so I’m curious.
There was a back and forth rivalry between Fairbank, one of the editor of China's Response, and Michael, whose name was redlinked, so it will be useful for readers to check them out.

When you nominate an article for deletion, as you did here, could you please use the edit summary to explain what you are doing? I have had a look back at your edits for today (so far), and only a couple have non-automated edit summaries; the vast majority have nothing filled in at all. Edit summaries are very useful for helping other editors browsing the page history to see what has been going on, and as far as tagging for deletion goes, it is essential. Please see WP:ES for a more detailed explanation. Stephen! Coming... 11:29, 10 May 2017 (UTC)
Thanks for marking the dab page Lyric Suite as reviewed. I see you removed the classical music project banner from the talk page, but then put it back in again. I was unsure myself whether it should be included – the two entries that could claim primary topic status are the Berg and Grieg Lyric Suites, both of which come under the classical music banner, but some of the other entries don't. Is there a guideline anywhere about project banners on dab pages? --Deskford (talk) 19:43, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

Since rolling out the right in November, just 6 months ago, we now have 826 reviewers, but the backlog is still mysteriously growing fast. If every reviewer did just 55 reviews, the 22,000 backlog would be gone, in a flash, schwoop, just like that!
But do remember: Rather than speed, quality and depth of patrolling and the use of correct CSD criteria are essential to good reviewing. Do not over-tag. Make use of the message feature to let the creator know about your maintenance tags. See the tutorial again HERE. Get help HERE.

Dear PRehse,
the page Gal4 redict to specialized application of splitted Gal4 in Drosophila, adapted from yeast two hybrid system, which was invented by James P, Halladay J and Craig EA. PMID: 8978031
The Gal4 is an yeast transcription factor, coded by a yeast gene, therefore the main Gal4 page should deal with yeast Gal4 transcription factor and not with domain used in some constructs in Drosophila
Please undo your intervation, You could give me also stronger arguments, which entitle you to do so I would like to see your qualification for your handling (publication with Gal4)
I hope, that was just misunderstanding, which you could handle

Dear PRehse, your answer "I done because it was easy" is really not satisfactory to your qualification (reduced thioredoxin) is general but really very well nevertheless, you did not justified your intervantion and obviously you done it without reading the context I agree, that formatting on wiki is not my strong part, but this is not enough reason for your intervention I suppose, you agree now with direct Gal4 redict to the yeast Gal4 transcription factor page Piskacek (talk) 17:48, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
Hi.

As far as Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio is concerned, all short stories are inherently notable, and there's plenty of coverage out there to meet GNG.

I really like your background. I'm a biologist by training and appreciate your work. Aren't those synchrotrons greats! You have a fun hobby too.
I noticed you edited on World Botanical Gardens (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=World_Botanical_Gardens&action=history) on April 17 this year, just after the Marspokane edit of the same date. Marspokane is the user name of Mark Robinson of Spokane, Washington. He is one of the two persons who are defending themselves in court in the botanical garden lawsuit against them, referenced in the article (In re WBGI).
In his edit, he claimed that Notice was given to the shareholders on the WBGI website. His reference, however, was to "Business Bankruptcies" which makes no mention of that. Essentially, that is a fraud. He is also being accused of fraud in the legal proceeding. He was managing the WBGI asset (the botanical garden) when he concocted a scheme to steal all of the asset for himself and his partner (Steve Bryant). They filed for bankruptcy liquidation, claimed the company was losing money, told no one about it, and obtained a dissolution while selling all of the asset to himself and his partner. I learned about it anyway, and now the dissolution is being unwound based on that fraud. Apparently, he feels the noose tightening, and tried to bolster his case by making that edit on April 17.

There are no details available for Illathu Nair in Wiki,its a separate class of Nairs. Nair is a very large community. this article helps people to understand about the different group existed in Nair group. These days Nairs are generalized as sudra category, its very important to give awareness to public that Nair community had both Kshatriya and Sudra group existed in this community same like Singh community where Kshatriya, Bhrahmin, Sudra and Sikh exist in the group.
Please note this is not a duplication of Nair article. Illathu Nair is a sub group of Nair thats the only similarity. A seperate article is required for awareness.
The article about Nair in Wikipedia is incomplete and edited but few having vested interest in defaming the community. I belong to Nair community and I know in and out of this community well. So separate article is required and hierarchy is very important to avoid confusion about this community with the public.
All citation given in Nair article are not really relevant for supporting the claims. i kindly request to review the citation given in Nair article.
Hello PRehse. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of LGBT En Marche!, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Being part of a notable entity indicates importance/significance (WP:CCSI#CORP, WP:CCSI#ORG). Thank you. SoWhy 11:56, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
I've declined that speedy nomination, just because she's due to fight in UFC 214 tomorrow. If she does, she'll satisfy WP:NMMA. I think it's fair enough to wait for that.

The following posts were made;
Blatant WP:COI - Wikipedia is NOT an advertising site. Nearly all edits are by Ggmatrix (who only edits this page and his wifes) and Jessicacoward (obviously his wife) - The same has been done for the wife's account which is also AFD, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Jessica_Coward
I have to take moment and let the hate sink in, lol, first off I don't advertise anything on Wiki, I own 31 websites and I have a massive social media following based off my Proven Professional background and current professional status as a trainer. Your frivolous comment regarding me advertising on Wiki makes it very obvious that your just not happy about another individuals success. The bottom line is this, I have a proven high level professional background and continue even in my 2nd career to exceed exceptions, especially given the short time it took me to get here. You seemed (like most haters) to have taken a lot of time to look at my page here on Wiki as well as my wife's, I think its only fair that I oblige you and do a little digging myself and Im very confident given my unique background and skill set that I will find out everything I need to know about you. Also my profile has been on Wiki since 2013, and Im certain if there were any issues with my page, the true professionals at Wikipedia would have contacted me to make any necessary adjustments. I thank Wikipedia for the privilege of having a page here but at the end of the day I didn't ask for this page to be setup and quit frankly it hasn't done anything for me professionally or business wise, all of my success is the result of hardwork, intelligent decisions and skills that Ive spent thousands of hours developing and refining to be at this level now. I do hope that the professionals at Wikipedia take a moment to vet individuals like the one making these frivolous and unsubstantiated statements / attacks on honest, hardworking individuals featured on Wikipedia.

TY for adding those WikiProjects to Tyrol (region). I first fell across Tyrol as a DAB page with a bad link into it. I kid you not - that DAB page was then linked only to Simple English, to Scots, and to Swedish Wikis - and Tyrol (region) was a redirect into it(!). de:Tirol and it:Tirolo, which relate to Tyrol (region) as such, are around 20 and 13 screensful respectively. There's fluff in both those articles, but if you feel like helping to bring the worthwhile bits into English Wiki, please go ahead. Narky Blert (talk) 23:27, 7 July 2017 (UTC)
Hi.
I saw that you have contested our post for "Furian" in UK bands. I understand that you have your reasons but I have a more personal plea with this one I suppose. You are correct in saying that we have never charted but we have featured on Kerrang radio (which I can provide proof for) and have been established as both a registered business and a band and are registered with PRS as an artist (the global royalties agency). By that merit we are surely a band that could be entered.
I completely understand that you are playing by the rules and don't wish to approach from any other angle than, we could really use the traffic that this wiki entry can provide (due to our relation to the chronicles of riddick searches). Being a band is a very tough game to play and we need every little bit of help that we can get in directing people to our page. I ask kindly that we work to fix this instead of denying it. Would love to hear your feedback, ears are completely open. I am new to wikipedia and I'm positive that you've identified that straight away. But I would rather be helped than denied.
Kind regards,

Hallo, I came across this while stub-sorting, found that in its then state it only duplicated text from Professional certification, but then realised that you had removed most of its content. Looking further into the history, this article had been created by splitting the "business" section out of Professional certification, and is linked as a "Main" article from there. The list which you called spam seems much the same level of detail as much of that article (yes, WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS, but a certain level of consistency makes sense), and I've reverted it. If you disagree philosophically with the content of Professional certification (business), you might want to take action about the more general article Professional certification. Or perhaps trim out some of the spammier elements of the business article. But removing its entire content doesn't seem to me to improve the encyclopedia. PamD 07:37, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

You know that Nair article is protected from editing. So I add few information about Illathu Nair in a new article. And now I am blocked from editing it and all my entries are removed. I really suspect that a group is trying to defame the Nair community, and I charged a case with Kerala cyber police about the activities and statements in Nair article, its heinous crime in Kerala cyber act. Also I also would like to bring your attention on below blog written by an editor of Wikipedia about the Sitush a WIki editor who deliberately blocked me for writing in Wiki about Nair, he just needs to defame the community and many had highlighted about this in the Nair talk page and all of them were blocked accessing it. A piad group is trying to defame a community in Wikipedia and its exposed now. As you are an editor I kindly request you to check the sources of Nair article and also do a comparion check on the old Nair artciel and the new Nair article written by Sitush.

As per Wikipedia editors, they never consider the details of Raj era. Then may I know why derogatory information such as Polygamy, Hypergamy, Thallikettu kalyanam, sambandham etc are included in the page. Those were practices of Raj era. Take Wikipedia serious. Its not a place to put your views and suggestions. Either go with the rule that no old Raj era customs will be included or take consensus from other editors and add non derogatory customs and prides of these caste and elaborate the page. Apparently it look like few has taken the control of few pages like Nair, Ezhava etc and I have seen you using derogatory statements in Ezhava as well.
Remove below derogatory line in Nair article. ""These people were then distinguished from others in the local population by their occupation as protectors, with the others all being classed as out-caste. Pullapilly describes that this meant they "... were given kshatriya functions, but only shudra status. Thus originated the Nairs.""

You reverted my changes and noted that a "correct move" is needed to reverse the redirect of Auraeus Solito to Kanakan Balintagos.
This past May, I tried to remove the redirect at Auraeus Solito, but received a notice that I lacked the authority to do so. I submitted a request to Wikipedia to do so, but received no response.
Mr. Solito contacted me this past weekend asking why this has not yet been done, so I thought and looked for a few hours about how to change it myself since Wikipedia would not cooperate. The Help section was entirely unhelpful. I was successful in figuring out how to redirect the redirect --- but you did not like it.

Hello, This is regarding the wiki page of Dr. Komal Rao. In India female MMA artists are very rare due to social taboo. Komal Rao represents a medical doctor who has chosen to enter the MMA arena. She also is a woman who has fought a male and defeated him at YBN in Germany. A notable achievement by Indian standards. She is a well known student of Richard Bustillo, original student of Bruce Lee and president of India chapter of JKD, governing authentic JKD in India. On social media she has 30000 Facebook fans and is a well known personality in the Indian marital arts circuit. I want to avail of your guidance on the subject, how to deal with the page issues on Wikipedia. Since there aren't many people here who are available with the expertise of the intricacies of Wikipedia editing, if you can help, it will be well appreciated. She is very popular in India, on social media and offline. There are many articles written about her and she is a very notable personality in her own right.

This article is not self written by Eric Grant but rather requested by Eric for help in doing a Wikipedia Article. I accepted doing this article for no pay because I have been wanting to learn how to contribute to Wikipedia for a long time but never had an official opportunity to do so. I am very passionate about publishing and contributing to editing sources. As a previous DMOZ contributing editor, this is a passion for me to contribute and give freely of time toward volunteering. I would like to one day see if Volunteering as a Review Editor with Wikipedia could be an additional avenue to volunteer publishing. I realize that I have much to learn but I also realize the benefits to learning for this efforts, contributing aligns with my goals.
I'm not sure this is a COI issue but need assistance in what I should cite for this as I am not paid by Eric but rather a publishing entity volunteering.
Thank you for helping me understand and providing help to do better with my first article.

Thanks for your quick work on Stephen F. Teiser, though I resurrected him from "living = no" to "living = yes", which I thought only appropriate for a scholar of religion.
But while I'm at it, since you are experienced with a range of articles, I thought I'd ask what the procedures and expectations are about when & how an article is "reviewed." Does being reviewed seem to make a difference other than removing the ugly template?
Is the "Start-class" related, that is, if it's not reviewed is it "start"? This seems to me to be more than "An article that is developing, but which is quite incomplete. It might or might not cite adequate reliable sources." I wouldn't be insulted by a "B" class: "The article is mostly complete and without major problems, but requires some further work to reach good article standards."
The standard problem with academics is finding biographical sources. Their personal lives are not usually what makes them notable, so the emphasis is properly on their work. I could add more reviews, but I selected these to show the nature of Teiser's work but not the puffery.
In any case, cheers and apologies for intruding. ch (talk) 16:51, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
Hello, Since you reviewed the page Khufiyya which I created recently, I'd like to know if I am entitled to rate the importance according to the scale of importance myself? Or do I have to wait to receive a grading?
Thank you very much.----損齋 (talk) 16:48, 20 October 2017 (UTC)
I see. I am not trying to change the rating. I asked because next time I create a page, I know I can rate it. Thanks again.----損齋 (talk) 17:03, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

I had the same concerns you did, but earwig tool checks out as low probability of copying. If you can find a copied source, then prod tag it, don't just un-review it based on a vague gut feeling. There are 12K articles yet to be reviewed... plenty on India-related topics that are BLPs and probably have issues. Montanabw(talk) 19:38, 21 October 2017 (UTC)

Hello. In reference to your message regarding my alleged review of Russian people in Israel (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views), FYI, I did no such thing. As the page log shows, you reviewed the page and then unreviewed it within 8 minutes. I was not involved in any review of that page. Best. Dr. K. 21:56, 24 October 2017 (UTC)
Where is the place to define this abbreviation ? The article involved by the redirected page don't define it !

Dear PRehse,
I am wondering why you left a notability tag on this page? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlad_Tuinov
I am the one who created the page. Everything in there is factual and backed by a reference. I was told the last time to find reputable references, when they took his page off. Yes there are some references from smaller media, but thre are a lot of interviews and exposes from Channel 1 Russia, which is the largest channel in Russia and CIS. The channel is also broadcasts throughout Eastern Europe. There are also numerous references from other media sources from around the world. According to wikipedia that fight results and mentions can be used but more importanly are main stream media sources on him and those are provided. Wikipedia's policy also says a person is noteworthy based on if they had a stellar amateur career. If you look at his amateur career and professional career, at 19, it is more than stellar and media does cover him. I would like to resolve this, especially considering fighters like Massaro Glunder and Gokhan Saki have profiles and there are no problems with their pages and Gokhan Saki's references are all broken links. All my references are verifiable.
In your recent edit to Appiani, you deleted two redlinked names. I considered it acceptable to include them because this sub-list is just a précis of Appiani family, which has the same redlinks; if someone adds the articles in response to the implied request, it will resolve both. I understand your reasons (as far as I can guess with no edit comment) but you have still left a dangling reference to Alessandro; see Isabella. How should that be fixed?

Hi PRhese, I created two pages well written and organized, which are Joana Cunha and Portugal at the 2015 Summer Universiade, but I need the review, could you possibly tell me a way of someone reviewing my pages in the future, or I'll just ask it here? Thanks. Phospor (talk) 19:00, 3 November 2017 (UTC)

Hey, First of all, thanks for taking the time to rate the articles. Secondly, as I created both Valérie Gauvin and Grace Geyoro, and I thought they're both on about the same level, I was wondering why you rated Gauvin a start-class and Geyoro a C-class (I'm not very familiar on how to choose ratings so I'd appreciate some general tips too). Cheers, --SuperJew (talk) 13:47, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
Hello PRehse - I've declined your speedy deletion nomination of Sexsomnia as it was a plausible redirect. I have noticed that this is not the first time you have received a notice of a declined speedy on your talk page (for the exact same reason), and would therefore advise you to exercise caution when dealing with CSD in the future. Thanks, Patient Zerotalk 11:37, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
When I try to move Nils Nilsson (ice hockey player) to Nils Nilsson (ice hockey), it says that that action is not permitted as the destination article already exists - which it does! as a redirect back to Nils Nilsson (ice hockey player). So, I'm not sure how to move the page other than copying the text... –uncleben85 (talk) 14:49, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
Per the displayed text of the template, it is perfectly acceptable for me to remove it as I am not the original creator of the article by any measure. I am not a member of Delta Phi Lambda. (I'm actually a white male) And I've improved the article, so why shouldn't I remove a speedy. If you would like to make another AFD, that's fine and I'll contribute to that.Naraht (talk) 19:01, 17 November 2017 (UTC)
Would you mind explaining the "restore redirect" concept to me? What you did appears similar to an article deletion, except that the procedure for article deletion has been bypassed. Nom is a writing system while Sino-Vietnamese characters are of course characters. English alphabet is an article, not a redirect to standard written English or English orthography. Sino-Japanese characters are discussed in kanji while Sino-Korean characters are discussed in hanja. This is despite the fact that hanja is not a term in common English-language usage. I am planning to submit articles for Asian Month. If redirects are commonly considered to have priority over articles, that would be a hindrance. CrayFishBob (talk) 06:10, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Hi! Thanks for taking an interest in the Algorithmic bias article. I noticed you removed the discrimination tag from the category list. I'd like to add it back in, but wanted to understand why you removed it. To me, the article belongs in the list, since it is primarily concerned with discrimination resulting from flawed algorithmic processes. This seems very relevant to people who might be interested in discrimination topics. I'd like to tag it again if you don't mind - or if you disagree, please let me know what you think. Unrelated, also thanks for all the work on martial arts subjects! I also lived in Japan and have done a lot of work on shrines, temples, and Shinto. -- Owlsmcgee (talk) 06:04, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
Dear PRehse,
Returning back to Vlad Tuinov (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Vlad_Tuinov), he has now been ranked by two independent organizations. I am now wondering, as that is one of the three ways to get your page published based on notibility issues, if these two organizations are acceptable by wikipedia and if the page can now be published without problems?

Hi. Can you please explain the reasoning for creating a new article Weser-Rhine Germanic which copy-pastes material from an existing article Istvaeonic languages. What discussions have there been about this please, because there seems to be something strange going on. That article was under discussion and at the exact same time material has also been copy pasted to a previously deleted (therefore also effectively new article) Istvaeones.--Andrew Lancaster (talk) 22:38, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi PRehse, I'm not sure what your role is in all of this, but to keep it simple and factual: I've effectivly split the current Istvaeonic languages article into two separate articles, after I prevously edited the article, in which I partially combined two previous (and quality -wise unsufficient) existing articles. A choice which I now see as a mistake. It's clearly the way to go given that Istvaeonic languages currently includes two very different meanings. The talk page has become close to incomprehensible to me after Andrew Lancaster, who in all honesty does not seem to be particulary well read on the subject, got involved and turned what should and could be a fairly simple matter in a head ache.

Hi PRehse, I would like to seek your advice on UFC 221 where no official announce of a bout would consider speculation under WP:BALL wikipedia policy.

Hello, PRehse. You have redirected Cebuano Wikipedia using this as a cause. The bad thing is that the version nominated for its elimination was this, and not the one that I translated. I hope soon your reasons why you redirected the article again. Super Ψ Dro 16:23, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

Hey Pete, merry Christmas if you are so celebrating. I noticed you tagged the gyaku-zuki article that seems to have popped out of nowhere yesterday. Seems that user:Dwaynewest has started creating stubs for the Japanese names for some karate techniques. Bluntly put, I don't think these articles should exist. These are exactly the sort of "will never grow beyond a stub" items that list articles are meant for. (Not to mention the incorrect capitalization of the titles, which is just annoying.) Do you think we should just merge them back to karate techniques, which had been the redirect target of at least one article before yesterday? I don't want to be too bold, but frankly I just don't see the point of these articles. oknazevad (talk) 00:05, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
Gyaku-zuki and Uchi-Uke I am also willing to accept if it is seen as to short to be merged to karate techniques.
If Ushiro-Geri is not considered good enough then I will accept that being merged too among the other recent karate technique articles. I honestly didn't mean any harm I thought I was helping expand the knowledge of useful karate techniques.Dwanyewest (talk) 21:18, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
As you will have seen over the years I have tried to add reputable sources to martial articles like Kime and other without sources. I just wish to ask if as I seen to be making missteps if Karate in the United States is notable or if making an article on the question mark kick aka Brazilian kick is worth making (I don't the name in Japanese) or if it should be added to karate techniques or Kick the same with Rolling thunder kick (I also don't know the name in Japanese).
The other question is more a personal question could you design for me a talk archive inbox or show me how to do it myself please. Dwanyewest (talk) 21:33, 26 December 2017 (UTC)
Hi, PRehse - hopefully you can advise - if an article TP has a Banner shell, and the article ends up being deleted, is that deletion discussion +result added or maybe transcluded to that TP banner? We just had a discussion at NPP (I believe) about such article history and for some reason, I thought the TP banner shell was the place to keep such info archived. Is that "wishful thinking?"
