Could you tell me why you delete my Draft:Sakura Mobile?
editHello, Thank you for reviewing my article "Draft:Sakura Mobile". However, could you please tell me why you deleted the draft? I created the draft by using Article Wizard, and it was written in a neutral point of view. I believe there were no promotional content. Thank you for your help!Zuuutotokyo (talk) 01:47, 12 August 2021 (UTC)
- Hi, i'm sorry that your page was deleted. Unfortunately your article read as a WP:PROMO which is a violation of our policy here, if you wish you can re-write the article. I believe this links maybe helpful as a firsttimer WP:YFA, WP:RS and WP:NPOV. Riteboke (talk) 20:38, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
- Thank you for your reply. I read the wikipedia policies you provided. Then, could you please tell me why you found the draft was promotional? From my point of view, the draft was written without promotional contents and it was in accordance with wikipedia's policy. This is because I worte only facts about the company based on many referrences, i.e. the contents were verifiarable through the third party media sources. I know I ma a firsttimer, however could you plesae specify what was wrong with my draft? I would like to re-write it. Thank you for your help! Zuuutotokyo (talk) 06:18, 16 August 2021 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, I do not have access to the Draft again as its been deleted. If i tagged your article for deletion as being promotional there was really something promotional about it. However you can request for a WP:REFUND of the article. Riteboke (talk) 23:16, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
- I won't be able to request to restore my Draft:Sakura Mobile because it was deleted under criteria G11. Is it possible for you to check the Draft if I attach the link to dropbox page where the article is written? Thank you for your help! Zuuutotokyo (talk) 06:39, 18 August 2021 (UTC)

editNot sure why you did this - but I've reverted you. The text is nothing to do with Nomis. Ghmyrtle (talk) 09:06, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Ghmyrtle, The link was a bare url and what i did was fix the bare url. If you checked, the NOMIS link is basically just a citation supporting the population of the village. Hope that satisfies your curiosity. Riteboke (talk) 09:19, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
- Yes, but the statement you have referenced concerns the origin of the village name, for which the archived link was a perfectly good source, and which has nothing to do with Nomis... ?? Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:07, 27 July 2021 (UTC) PS: Ah, I've seen what you did now - you "corrected" the wrong citation. I'll sort it out... Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:09, 27 July 2021 (UTC)
Rollback granted
editHi Riteboke. After reviewing your request, I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when using rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
For some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into trouble or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ~ ToBeFree (talk) 19:58, 3 August 2021 (UTC)

editThis is not the way to go about it. That user did not move the page, I draftified that article. Please be careful when issuing warning.s Thanks. Kleuske (talk) 15:48, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
- My bad, i had noticed that article was still in mainspace after i saw the log for draft move by you. Will be more careful next time. Riteboke (talk) 16:16, 9 August 2021 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted
editHi Riteboke. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers
" user group. Please check back at WP:PERM in case your user right is time limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page. In addition, please remember:
- Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
- You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
- If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
- Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.
The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. signed, Rosguill talk 19:11, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
Just Yellow Media
editI have declined your speedy deletion nomination of Just Yellow Media, because the closure of the deletion discussion was a soft deletion, which means that any editor may have the article restored. However, in its present state the article is clearly unsuitable, so you may wish to take it to a new deletion discussion at AfD. JBW (talk) 10:21, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
- @JBW:, Yes I had thought it may not be eligible for WP:G4 because it was a soft delete, just wanted to try it anyway. I will open a new AFD on it thanks. Riteboke (talk) 10:35, 22 August 2021 (UTC)
Speedy deletion togyzkumalak draft
editHello Ritebok,
You have placed speedy deletion tag in togyzkumalak draft to due to violating rules (promotion). Can you please clarify which part of the draft you consider as a promotion?
Speedy deletion Safe Society draft
editHello Ritebok,
You have placed speedy deletion tag on my draft on Safe Society to due to violating rules (unambiguous promotion). Can you please clarify which part of the draft you consider as a promotion or no cited well, I am working on making the article compliant as per the wikipedia rules and it would be great if you be of help. I revise the COI, as I used to volunteer for this organization years back, however no current liabities. The organization in discussion is more than a decade old and has been recognized by UN itself(included in the citation/reference). It has been working in the ground level for the underprivileged. Also, I checked for plagiarism before updating the draft here. Regarding copyright, mentioning anything other than the organization's work would be misleading it would be very helpful for me if you can help me rewrite it, suggesting areas of improvement in the article. I'll be mentioning more references(news publication. Thanks a lot.
- Rudra14 as admins told, the article was an advertising. It was largely unsourced, promotional in tone, and lacking in verifiable facts. Riteboke (talk) 09:41, 24 August 2021 (UTC)
Reverted page to Draft:Patrizia Polliotto
editYou reverted an article that I edited to draft. I took time doing the right thing and other editors accepted it but you just came and reverted it to draft. Can you please look into it again? Thanks Eddyug (talk) 11:04, 8 September 2021 (UTC)
- You should have submitted it for review instead of moving pages directly. Riteboke (talk) 08:10, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
Thank you for your work
editRiteboke, I noticed that someone at The Teahouse was unhappy with you for not accepting their article, so I just wanted you to know that I am thankful that you have volunteered for the often thankless job of reviewing draft articles. I get stressed out just thinking about taking on the responsibility of a reviewer, and I am grateful that you are stepping up to help with the backlog of Wikipedia drafts. Best wishes in all your volunteer endeavors. Karenthewriter (talk) 01:46, 12 September 2021 (UTC)
New Page Patrol newsletter September 2021
editHello Riteboke,
Please join this discussion - there is increase in the abuse of Wikipedia and its processes by POV pushers, Paid Editors, and by holders of various user rights including Autopatrolled. Even our review systems themselves at AfC and NPR have been infiltrated. The good news is that detection is improving, but the downside is that it creates the need for a huge clean up - which of course adds to backlogs.
Copyright violations are also a serious issue. Most non-regular contributors do not understand why, and most of our Reviewers are not experts on copyright law - and can't be expected to be, but there is excellent, easy-to-follow advice on COPYVIO detection here.
At the time of the last newsletter (#25, December 2020) the backlog was only just over 2,000 articles. New Page Review is an official system. It's the only firewall against the inclusion of new, improper pages.
There are currently 706 New Page Reviewers plus a further 1,080 admins, but as much as nearly 90% of the patrolling is still being done by around only the 20 or so most regular patrollers.
If you are no longer very active on Wikipedia or you no longer wish to be part of the New Page Reviewer user group, please consider asking any admin to remove you from the list. This will enable NPP to have a better overview of its performance and what improvements need to be made to the process or its software.
Various awards are due to be allocated by the end of the year and barnstars are overdue. If you would like to manage this, please let us know. Indeed, if you are interested in coordinating NPR, it does not involve much time and the tasks are described here.
To opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself here. Sent to 827 users. 04:32, 16 September 2021 (UTC)

editIf this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Gustavo Lopez (music executive) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Gustavo_Lopez_(music_executive). When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.
