Hey . I have noticed that you added a deletion tag on Shrinkhala Devi. I think the article is not so short. It is fulfilled by many informations from various books, websites and scholars etc Kamalika Basu (talk) 06:03, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide your input at the article's deletion discussion. Thanks. ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 08:35, 10 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Rayden,

Can you please help me with permenently deleting all of my edits with all the information on Hafiz Saeed page?

Also, can you help me with deleting my account?

Thanks. Vitthal2081 (talk) 06:09, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Vitthal2081, as I can see, you're asking a revision deletion of your contributions. However your edits doesn't meet any criteria for RD. Why you're asking an RD is something I can not understand. Furthermore, Wikipedia accounts can't be deleted. But if you really want to leave this account behind, you might be interested in clean start. Thanks. ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 06:31, 11 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for looking over the draft for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Hugh_Goldsmith. I was wondering if you could give any specific advice for how to edit it so that it is appropriate for Wikipedia. I can add more links to cite his noteworthiness or make other changes that you think would help. Thanks so much for your work. 51.190.232.32 (talk) 11:39, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

51.190.232.32 (talk) 11:39, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there 51.190.232.32, in my opinion, the notability is not the issue here. The issue is that the draft is written in a way which publicizes the subject in a promotional manner, rather than stating facts. I suggest you re-write the draft to comply with Wikipedia's Biography of living persons policy. Happy Editing! ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 14:46, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I've deleted the redirect, so moving the draft can go ahead. JBW (talk) 18:51, 15 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good evening @Raydann! Due to an Educational Project, other users and I have this draft: Draft:Silly Mountain (Arizona) - as you can see on the Talk Page-. We have submitted it, but we want to ask your thought, in order to improve some parts or to fix something wrong. Could we ask you for your opinion? Thanks in advance! Team5DTVanessa (talk) 08:59, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good evening to you as well! I looked over the draft and found it all good, so I've Accepted it. Kudos to all your project members and your instructor Limelightangel for providing a thorough review of the draft. Keep on editing & learning. Thanks! ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 15:07, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your time and availability! Team5DTVanessa (talk) 16:43, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Her article on W. says: Corby in 1969 trained as a teacher of transcendental meditation.[7]

That sentence is a little terse, so I tried to complete that line by adding where the training took place and who trained her. Also I added that she was pracising TM since a few years already. For the latter there is no website to reference to. She said so herself during the Merv Griffin show, recorded on 27 March 1975 (to be broadcast on 14 April 1975) at the Hollywood Palace, Hollywood. Should I re-enter the text? 81.173.96.144 (talk) 14:47, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I see you already re-entered it. Suggestion: in the future I suggest you provide a precise edit summary so that other editors have a general idea of your edit and not just a vague description. Thanks. ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 14:59, 16 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I hope not to bother @Raydann, Me and other users had to create (for an Educational Project) this draft page: Draft: Velca Design , we have submitted it on 9th of December and we wanted to kindly ask you if you could have a look and tell us how to improve it in order to fix all the mistakes. Thak you for your time.Fraliuc2 (talk) 11:10, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Fraliuc2. I believe as long as you follow Limelightangel's instructions there won't be any problems. The draft looks good and it is  Highly likely to get accepted into the mainspace. However, for the sake of transparency, I must clarify that I will not publish any more drafts by LIUC students or of their/your Educational Project because other editors might think I have a conflict of interest, which is obviously not true. I understand that the reviewing process takes time, but reviewers are trying their best to reduce the backlog (3000+ currently). So sit tight, and a reviewer will be on your draft soon. Thanks! ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 11:39, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your time, I understand the issue of this false conflict of interest. I hope it will be accepted soon, thanks for your assistance and good words Fraliuc2 (talk) 12:45, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good afternoon @Raydann! Me and a group of other students are working on creating an article on Wikipedia for an Educational Project. The Draft is the following: Draft: Dylan O'Donnell; we have submitted it for review on 14th of December and we are looking forward to receiving any feedback. Therefore, we would be glad if you could review it, telling us if it needs any improovements or if there are any mistakes that have to be fixed. Thanks in advance for your time!

Please see this discussion for my input. Thanks. ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 15:54, 17 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Raydann. 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 17:20, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Raydann, I noticed you closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Massacres of Azerbaijanis in Armenia in 1917–1921, an AfD I was aware of but not involved in. I would consider this to be a WP:BADNAC, which identifies situations where non-admin closures are inappropriate. This includes cases where "the outcome is a close call (especially where there are several valid outcomes) or likely to be controversial." To me, the discussion clearly indicates controversy, suggesting that a NAC is inappropriate in this case. Let the admins take the heat for this kind of closure! Thanks, Suriname0 (talk) 23:14, 18 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey there @Suriname0! Thanks for pointing this out. I agree with you, the discussion, as I came to realise now was indeed a controversial one. I assure you, I'll be more careful in future non-admin closures and you won't see another WP:BADNAC coming from me. See you around! ❯❯❯ Raydann^(Talk) 08:23, 19 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
