A barnstar for you![edit]

The Original Barnstar

Hello dear Ms. Knewdates,

I got spotted your well referenced addition to Conrad Celtes, and wanna express my sincere respect with this star to you, nice work thanks to your research and work, please keep it up. PS: Allow yourself to be a bookworm and be a librarian, a few works like that of Dr. B. Long cables, for example, which the previous owner had laboriously restored, are in my possession. Kind regards, and please stay safe.

Abani79 (talk) 11:32, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Awww. Thank you so much! Your comment encourages me to improve my contributions. So kind! Knewdates (talk) 04:08, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Emmanuel Franck Biya moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Emmanuel Franck Biya, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. Celestina007 (talk) 17:41, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! I found extra sources and I submitted the draft. He is the most talked-about political figure in Cameroon right now, It's a bit weird that there's not a Wikipedia page of that person. Knewdates (talk) 17:15, 2 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Societé de Presse et d'Editions du Cameroun moved to draftspace[edit]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Emmanuel Franck Biya (April 29)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by M-Mustapha was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

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 when they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Emmanuel Franck Biya and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Wikipedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Emmanuel Franck Biya, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

I've started a discussion about your edits and accusations on Daniel Lee (designer) on the admins noticeboard[edit]

Firstly, I do live in Berlin, secondly I am not on any social media nor do I look at social media, and thirdly I think we can both agree that an independent party needs to come in for arbitration at this point given the wealth of accusations you have levelled against me, your animosity towards me, and your nonstandard intepretations of citations. Furthermore, I don't need to have an account to edit on Wiki and I am glad wiki respects my privacy enough to allow such editing, I show my respect for this practice by signing my details each time I edit, as you can see when things get complicated I immediately go for arbitration and administrative help. I specialise on controversial topics and marginalised persons, because I am careful, an ally, and I know how to vet citations for controversial topics, especially when they have to do with the city I live in. talonx78.55.186.185 (talk) 08:28, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Talk:Daniel_Lee_(designer)[edit]

Please be mindful of harassment via WP:OUTING, in particular Dredging up their off-site opinions to repeatedly challenge their edits can be a form of harassment. Whether or not that material belongs in the article can be discussed without attempts at identifying the IP off-wiki, which can be viewed as a form of intimidation. OhNoitsJamie ^Talk 14:14, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You are right, I am terribly sorry about that, I am going to fix this and apologize to this person right away. Knewdates (talk) 16:58, 13 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

someone is once again manipulating both botega veneta and daniel lee pages on wiki. this time the deleted contextualising information regarding the pandemic lockdown during which private parties were not alowed and that staff-confirmed gatherings at soho were 100% confirmed to have taken place.. talonx77.13.166.64 (talk) 18:54, 2 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced Claims on Rina Dhaka[edit]

Hey, just a heads up that I removed the unsourced claims that Rina Dhaka's looks have been "showcased by celebrities such as Lara Dutta, Naomi Campbell and Uma Thurman." If you want to reinstate that claim, it's fine by me. Just make sure there's a valid reference to accompany it.

Thanks, RFZYNSPY ^talk 09:15, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The claim is sourced. I didn't add the source in the lead, as its a resume of the article, but it's in the article. Knewdates (talk) 09:42, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Trussardi[edit]

Hello Knewdates, I noticed that you have recently edited the article about Trussardi. A week ago I proposed an edit in the talk page (here). I have not, however, received any feedback since then. It would mean a lot to me to have your take on what I have submitted there. Would you have a look and let me know what you think? :) Stephanie Epiro (talk) 14:42, 13 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @Stephanie Epiro! I have checked your comments on the talk page of Trussardi. Well, if an article isn't very popular or controversial, there will not be so much discussion on the talk page. I think that the changes that you're proposing improve the article. So, go ahead! Knewdates (talk) 20:03, 14 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot for your help :) Stephanie Epiro (talk) 15:38, 16 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

TheChronium 09:11, 15 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, @TheChronium. All the info in the article is backed with sources and anyone that uses Google News can find a lot of info about the brand. Are not reliable media of the largest English-speaking country? I consider that the decision is based on a biased and Western-centric perspective. I spent considerable time planning that entry and I don't pretend to spend more, this is not my job. I think that Wikipedia loses in diversity with this kind of short-minded criteria.
