Twinkle

Hi Clenpr, if you're going to be reviewing pages and either tagging, improving, or nominating for deletion, then WP:TWINKLE will make your life easier (if you've not already installed it). In particular it (semi-)automates notifying page creators. ^~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~ 02:29, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh yeah ... Wikipedia:Deletion_policy#Alternatives_to_deletion is particularly useful to consider -- articles of limited notability may well be better served by some other remedy than deletion. Happy editing, ^~Hydronium^~Hydroxide^~(Talk)~ 02:38, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for letting me know! Clenpr (talk) 10:53, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion Sorting

Welcome! I just wanted to let you know that in the future when nominating articles at WP:AfD, be sure to include the appropriate deletion sorting tags. The easiest way to do this is through WP:TWINKLE as recommended above, but there are other ways at the WP:DELSORT page under scripts and tools. Happy editing!

Your submission at Articles for creation: 2025 United States Boycott (April 18)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reasons left by BuySomeApples were:

This submission does not appear to be written in the formal tone expected of an encyclopedia article. Entries should be written from a neutral point of view, and should refer to a range of independent, reliable, published sources. Please rewrite your submission in a more encyclopedic format. Please make sure to avoid peacock terms that promote the subject.

This submission reads more like an essay than an encyclopedia article. Submissions should summarise information in secondary, reliable sources and not contain opinions or original research. Please write about the topic from a neutral point of view in an encyclopedic manner.

The comment the reviewer left was:

This topic seems like it might be notable but the article would need to be rewritten and improved a lot before going to mainspace.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

Using WP:NSOFT as a deletion justification

It's obviously causing problems for you to do this. Please, when doing a deletion nomination, at least say something beyond "fails WP:X" that gives some indication of what you did to research your nomination. Mangoe (talk) 12:16, 27 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I will not use this justification anymore. Clenpr (talk) 10:54, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Carbide.c++ proposed deletion

Clenpr, based on the IP, the topic (old software) and the terse justification given in the PROD notice, I'm guessing this is another one of the many proposed software deletions you've made while logged out. If so, I'm letting you know I removed the PROD tag after adding references. Given Symbian's dominance of the mobile phone market (until iOS and Android) and Carbide's role within it, I was amazed to see this nominated. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 16:22, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for providing the missing references. Could you link them to specific content on the page? Clenpr (talk) 10:55, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

WP:BEFORE

I see you are nominating several articles claiming there are absolutely no sources. I also see you are creating them with less than 1 or 2 minutes between nomination and nomination. Please, see WP:BEFORE. There's no way you can assess all academic sources for a software term in 1 minute. This behavior is disruptive. MarioGom (talk) 19:16, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also note that login and off to make edits to the same articles as an account as an IP may be considered abuse of multiple accounts. See WP:LOUTSOCK. MarioGom (talk) 22:31, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I reviewed the articles list before starting the nomination process. I could not find sources. Clenpr (talk) 10:57, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

GLGE (programming library) proposed deletion

FYI: I have removed the PROD tag from this article. It was proposed for deletion by an anonymous editor using an Orange España IP. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 20:55, 10 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Windows Libraries for OS/2 proposed deletion

FYI: I have removed the PROD tag from this article. It was proposed for deletion by an anonymous editor using an Orange España IP. I was surprised that anyone would tag this article for deletion since the Windows vs. OS/2 competition was such a big deal in its day. There was a lot of coverage. --A.

Another proposed deletion declined E4M

FYI: I have removed the PROD tag from this article. It was proposed for deletion by an anonymous editor using an Orange España IP. It took only 30 seconds to find the first reliable reference with a Google Scholar search. --A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 18:04, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Another proposed deletion declined Scramdisk

FYI: I have removed the PROD tag from this article. It was proposed for deletion by an anonymous editor using an Orange España IP. It took only 30 seconds to find multiple reliable references with a Google Books search.

I see another editor redirected the page due to its lack of notability. Clenpr (talk) 11:02, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion declined: XobotOS

FYI: another editor removed the PROD tag from this article and redirected it to Xamarin as an alternative to deletion. It had been proposed for deletion by an anonymous IP-hopping editor using an Orange España IP.

Other editors already concluded this article was not notable and needed to be deleted. Clenpr (talk) 11:04, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed deletion declined: Scrambl3

I removed the "drive-by" PROD tag from this article and redirected it to USMobile as an obvious alternative to deletion per WP:ATD. It was yet another technology-related article proposed for deletion by an anonymous, IP-hopping editor using an Orange España IP.

Communication is essential

Hello, Clenpr,

This is a collaborative editing project so it is essential to work with other editors and communicate with them. I notice that you have only made 2 edits to a User talk page and you have never replied to any of the messages here from editors wanting to communicate with you about some issue. In AFDs, you typically make the exact same comment, asking for sources, over and over again and not really engaging with other editors in a full discussion.

A lack of Talk page or User talk page messages often means that an editor can't communicate well in English but looking at your edits, this doesn't seem to be the problem here. However, a refusal to communicate with other editors, if absolute, leads to a loss of editing privileges so please get over your adversion to working with others. You can start by replying to your fellow editors here on your User talk page and then start discussing articles and policies with other AFDs beyond posing questions to them. We really try not to bite newcomers! Thank you. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 01:06, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'll add if you're still using Orange España IPs to PROD the articles above while logged out, it's not very collegial.

Some editors might even consider it borderline sock puppetry -- see WP:LOGOUT and WP:LOUTSOCK. I'm not personally accusing you of sock puppetry but this could get you crosswise with other editors. A. B. ^{(talk • contribs • global count)} 01:37, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I will reply to every comment on the talk page. Clenpr (talk) 10:53, 21 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
