<div>== Glad to have you aboard ==<br />
Hi Geo Swan. I'm glad to have you aboard and thank for your contributions. I see you have a great deal of good articles userfied over at Wikipedia. I'm fairly certain that they'd be welcome here. Anyhoo, I just wanted to say hi and thanks for contributing. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:17, 6 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
== Articles deleted from Wikipedia ==<br />
<br />
I'm working on your list of articles deleted from Wikipedia. Looks like some have been userfied, so I'm still running through the list trying to figure things out.<br />
<br />
The first 20 have been undeleted and copied over here at WikiAlpha by Moonriddengirl who has been generously helping me. There is a [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10105 list here] showing the progress I'm making. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:48, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
* Thank you very much with your help with this. I anticipate this will be hundreds of hours of work to get these deleted articles into article space here. And I appreciate every bit of assistance. <br />
* Another complication is that in some cases the article on the captive has been replaced by a namesake. [[Charles H. Carpenter]] being a case in point. <br />
* I'll try to get all the userified ones copied here within the next 10 days. For them I can look at the full revision history and form my own judgment as to whether I was the sole author of the intellectual content. When I askedthe closing admin of [[Charles H. Carpenter (lawyer)]] for their help I asked them if they could either also email me a listing of the contributors, or confirm my recollection I was the sole author of its intellectual content. They didn't confirm, orsend me a listing. I am not 100% comfortable, but I went with my recollection.<br />
:Thanks again! [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 20:16, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
::I've gone through the list and [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10265 updated it here] .It appears about half are already userfied, so I included those links for convenience. There's another set that were moved to your userspace then deleted, so only you are able to ask for those to be undeleted. I'll see if I can get a few admins to undelete the rest and move them here.

* If you introduce new material here, when your block period is over, you could cut and paste sections you drafted here back there.<br />
<br />
* Someone nominated the [[Danqi Chen]] for speedy deletion. If it is deleted, or any of the other articles is deleted, the version here will still be readable. This wiki falls far lower on a google search list than a wikipedia article. But, when the wikipedia article is deleted some people will see the version here.<br />
<br />
* If you like, I will offer my opinion as to what might trigger problems with your work, here, so, when you have access to the wikipedia, you can avoid some of the problems you encountered before.<br />
<br />
* As for whether you really have to wait six months... I am only an observer. Sometimes people make a convincing case for early restoration, but it isn't looking promising for you. Did you get blocked from your user talk page? That is not promising.<br />
<br />
* With regard to Danqi Chen, just checking out a hunch, do you know her? <br />

== Deleting the old version of the picture. ==<br />
[[File:Creative_style.jpg | thumb | 200px]]<br />
Good afternoon. Can I ask you to delete the old version of the picture?<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/images/archive/8/86/20200302182900%21Creative_style.jpg 11:43, 8 November 2015<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/wiki/File:Creative_style.jpg<br />
<br />
* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], you call this ''"the old version"''. Are you arguing it should be replaced by a newer version?<br />
<br />
: This image is in use, in [[Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)]]. [[User:Stella|Stella]] uploaded it, in 2015.<br />
<br />
: I saw your note on [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]]. He and I have been entrusted with administrator authority here, mainly because we have both been very prolific here, and it helps us do our own work. <br />
<br />
: The inclusion rules here are much looser than on the wikipedia. I would delete an image, without consulting the site's owners, if there was a very clear cut reason - like if it seemed like "revenge-porn". This isn't an example. You haven't really offered a reason for deletion. If Mathew or I did delete the image, we would have an obligation to explain to Stella, the uploader, why we did so.<br />
<br />
: FWIW, if you want to link to an image, without it rendering on a page, preface it with a colon, like this, <code><nowiki>[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]</nowiki></code>. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:* Ah. Once I clicked on the wikilink to the image, [[:File:Creative_style.jpg]], I see someone uploaded a slightly different version of the image in March, 2020. <br />
<br />
:: On the wikipedia older versions of images are only very rarely deleted. 99.9 % percent of the time all versions are kept. <br />
<br />
:: The old version, here, is only 73 kb. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* Yes, I wanted to ask You to delete the old version. I like the new version with flowers, it doesn't need to be deleted. I wanted to delete the 2015 version. The author of the picture asked me to delete the old version, and let the new one remain. If it is not difficult, please delete the old version. <br>[[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], understanding discussions is best done when everyone observes the usual indentation conventions. I encourage you to learn them.<br />
<br />
:::: Older images are only rarely deleted. Someone would have to take extraordinary efforts to look at the older version. So I think it requires extraordinary reasons to delete. What if Stella returned here, told me she preferred the original version, and asked me why I deleted it - what am I to tell her?<br />
<br />
:::: Over on the wikipedia, images are allowed to be used under "fair use", but only under rare conditions. There are individuals who reduce the resolution of those fair use images. They '''then''' delete the original version. It is the only time I have seen older versions deleted. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::: I was asked to delete by the author himself, I am not the administrator of this wiki encyclopedia. Let the new version remain. Everything else I personally like. The author is currently making new versions of the paintings, so he asked me to delete the old version of the painting... [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::: Thanks for using indentation. It doesn't look like you read the reasons why I declined your earlier requests. Forgive me, but I am going to ignore any further requests you make that don't address my replies. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:51, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::: I didn't think it would be so hard to delete an old version of the picture. I'm not saying that you would completely delete it, I asked you to delete only the old version. Besides, it's not Wikipedia. Ignore it, your right. I gave you the reason for the deletion (request from the author of the picture).<br />
::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::::* Yes, I saw you said the author of the picture requested deletion of the old version. You ignored my reply. Only the most recent version is visible, without a lot of effort.<br />
<br />
:::::::: I googled "Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)". I bet you know what I found. Dozens of other wikis have essentially the same article about him.<br />
<br />
:::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], did you use [[User:Welux8|Welux8]] to upload that image, back in March? Are you [[User:Stella]]? Did you start some of those dozens of duplicate articles, on the other wikis?<br />
<br />
:::::::: When you refer to what the author wants, are you referring to Tatarnikov? Are you, yourself, Tatarnikov? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 21:52, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::::: Who cares who I am? Even if this old version is not removed, I will not be upset. Let there be both a new and an old version. Is that so hard to do? Why do you need the old version? [[User:Walte8|Walte8]] <br />
<br />
== Deleting my picture from the site ==<br />
Good afternoon. My picture was uploaded to Your site. It is displayed on our search engine in Russia.<br />
Please delete the old version of my creative work from the site. Please understand the situation and delete the old version of my image.<br />
[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]<br />
<br />
{{unsigned|DiezelSun|2020-10-21T02:52:03}}<br />
<br />
Please delete the old version of the image, as it belongs to my intellectual property. Today I registered on the site.<br />
[[User:DiezelSun|DiezelSun]]<br />
Each picture has its own author and this author can ask either to replace it with a new version, or to delete the picture, this is his intellectual property, which is established in the civil code. Any country in the world has intellectual property laws, including the United States, Russia, and England. Will you continue to think that this is not the author of the paintings? I am the author of this picture. I am writing to you in all seriousness. I have intellectual property rights to these paintings. So please delete the old version of the image. If you think I'm not the author, you're wrong about that.<br />
<br />
== Delete page ==<br />
<br />
I have sent an email requesting [[Trisha Paravas]] to be deleted. Please delete as soon as possible. Thanks. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 13:02, 9 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
* [[User:TimesSquares]], neither you nor [[User:Ranarian]] responded to my questions at [[Talk:Trish Paravas#Please show your work...]]<br />
<br />
: I asked whether any other wikipedians had worked on the article, prior to it being copied here. If anyone else made a meaningfl contribution to its intellectual content then I'd question whether it qualified for speedy deletion under good faith sole author requests deletion. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 03:57, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Further, a third person [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Trisha_Paravas&type=revision&diff=211143&oldid=209386 made close to a dozen edits] to the article's content. When the claim was made that you and Ranarian were the sole authors of the article did you take their contributions into account?

===Reply===<br />
Hi Geo Swan, at the moment, there is nothing about copyright. The full explanation had already been given at Richard's talk page at [[User talk:Richard]]. Here is a letter regarding the [[Trisha Paravas]] page deletion request.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Fashion Week Inc.'s corporate attorney Ms. Erica Doran, has requested that Ms. Trisha Paravas' (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha page to be deleted permanently from public view due to a pending legal matter at New York federal court. In addition, Ms. Doran requests a WikiAlpha administrator to provide a written confirmation that Ms. Paravas' WikiAlpha page has been deleted permanently from public view and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha administrators in the future indefinitely. The reason for the request for permanent deletion of Ms. Trisha Paravas' WikiAlpha page is a legal necessity and requirement. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation. We look forward to receiving a written confirmation from WikiAlpha admins as soon as possible.</blockquote><br />
<br />
The written confirmation can be sent to ericadoran@gmail.com, to trish.paravas@fw-investors.com, or at [[User talk:TimesSquares]].<br />
<br />
This is a polite request to delete the pages [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] due to legal orders. I myself do not intend to harass anyone or post any legal threats and am simply relaying Trisha Paravas's request. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 04:49, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:A simple email from you or any other WikiAlpha administrator stating: '''"Ms. Trisha Paravas's (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha.org page has been permanently deleted from public view at WikiAlpha.org, and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha.org admins in the future indefinitely."''' This statement should suffice, and the matter would be considered resolved provided the content is deleted and confirmed. That is it: a simple deletion and one-sentence confirmation via email to ericadoran@gmail.com, and trish.paravas@fw-investors.com. Thank you very much.

(edit conflict)<br />
<br />
: Lawyers. <br />
<br />
: Lawyers sometimes make ridiculous and unsupportable demands, which can safely be ignored. Over at the wikipedia article subjects don't get to try to control their content. Article subjects who make deletion requests, as a courtesy, get a fair hearing. Neither the wikipedia or wikialpha, or any one else, has an obligation to delete anything written about a public figure, when that material is fair and honest.<br />
<br />
: Over at the wikipedia parties who request courtesy deletion, who seem dishonest, or bluster and bully, have their requests turned down. Individuals who request courtesy, who are significant public figures, have their requests turned down. In general the only people who receive a courtesy deletion are people who are on the cusp, the boundary, of notability.<br />
<br />
: However, wikialpha doesn't have the stringent notability requirements of the wikipedia. So, for a public figure like Ms Paravas, there would be no cusp of notability.<br />
<br />
: So, did Ms Doran write to you? Why you? If they wrote you, why didn't you include a verbatim copy of this letter?<br />
<br />
: Her legal dispute is complicated. Is Fashion Week Inc Ms Paravas's company? Or is it one of the firms she has a dispute with?<br />
<br />
: Have you ever heard of Mattel's Cyber Patrol? If you thought a toy company, like Mattel, would have nice lawyers you would be wrong.<br />
<br />
: In the late 1990s, much earlier in the history of the Internet, Mattel thought "Parents trust us. We could sell them an (expensive) program and tell them it would protect their children from the dangers of the internet." Internally, their product, Cyber Patrol, was a stinking pile of crap. But well marketed. A couple of Computer Science students reverse engineered how it worked, and found it was just a very simple minded blacklist. If a parent ran it one the family computer it tried to block all URLs to news sites. And it tried to block all URLs that looked like they might lead to naughty pictures. But it did so in such a lazy manner, that it blocked a lot of innocent sites. It blocked everything from Carnegie Mellon university, apparently because a woman's bosoms are sometimes referred to as "melons".<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: The two students wrote an academic paper on their work. They published the source code to the program that decrypted cyber patrols blacklist database. (Mattel's programmers used very weak encryption, 19th century encryption.)<br />
<br />
: Mattel's lawyers made an enormous effort to suppress that source code. They sent their customers updated blacklists that blocked all the mirrors that held that source code, and all the sites where problems with cyber patrol were discussed.<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: After a week or two the two students went silent. Mattel's lawyers had convinced them that, since Mattel was a billion dollar company, their lives would be ruined unless they completely buckled. Mattel's lawers apparently demanded that they not only go silent, but sign over all the intellectual property rights to their programs and papers. Mattel's lawyers apparently threatened to bankrupt them and tie them up with years of lawsuits, unless they completely buckled.<br />
<br />
: The laughable part of this story was that they then threatened to sue the people managing the mirror sites. [[Steve Mann]], an early expert in wearable computers, wrote about their threats for his continuing to mirror the source code. They claimed Mattel now owned the source code and Mann was violating Mattel's intellectual property rights by continuing to mirror it. Mann pointed out that, as was the usual practice for sites where programmers offered their source code, the two students had already released most of their intellectual property rights when they put their source code under the GNU license, which is like creative commons.<br />
<br />
: Mann's correspondence with these hyper aggressive yet incompetent lawyers seemed to show they did not understand intellectual property. It sounded like they were angry at the students because they didn't realize that when they agreed to sign over all their intellectual property rights they were signing over a mere rump, because the students had already released significant rights.<br />
<br />
: If I recall Mann's correspondence properly Mattel's lawyers were considering suing the kids into bankruptcy after all.<br />
<br />
: Mattel ended up selling cyber patrol to another firm, at a huge discount, because its value had been blown.<br />
<br />
: Now, if I am not mistaken, everything that was put into the article(s) on Ms Paravas was backed up by meaningful references. If I am not mistaken, it didn't slander anyone. So, Ms Doran has no legal justification to request its deletion.<br />
<br />
: This is all up to Richard, since wikialpha lacks the strict notability criteria of the wikipedia. He could decide keeping the article was going to be just too much trouble. But, if it were up to me, I'd stand on principle and tell Ms Doran her deletion request was going to be declined.<br />
<br />
: Another anecdote. About a decade ago I started an article on guy who was a counter-terrorism expert. He had written a paper on counter-terrorism, which I had cited in another wikipedia article. As I cited it I decided I should learn who he was. At the time he wrote those articles on counter-terrorism he was a public figure. He published. He was a public speaker. He was a panelist at conferences. He was a professor specializing in security and counter-terrorism at, iirc, the Coast Guard Academy.<br />
<br />
: He also remained a part time NCIS agent. Prior to becoming an academic he had a long career as a counter-terrorism expert, who engaged in classified assignments. He had been an interrogator at Guantanamo. People don't know this, but the military interrogators had to share the Guantanamo captives with other agencies, including the CIA. Our guy had been assigned to a joint task force, the Criminal Investigation Task Force.<br />
<br />
: He had earned some kind of highly prestigious award for secret work, which was, itself, classified. Except some of the sources that wrote about it revealed that the award had come with a very substantial cash payment. <br />
<br />
: I had only learned part of this when I put the initial article into article space. I had only spent a half hour or an hour at it. Or, at least I thought I had. <br />
<br />
: But, when I went looking for it, to add more information, I couldn't find it. I wondered whether, as sometimes happens, my session had gone stale, so that when I thought I save it, the article wasn't saved, after all. <br />
<br />
: But that wasn't it. It had been deleted, without the deleting administrator telling me what he had done.<br />
<br />
: He was nice about it. He sat on the OTRS, and the subject of the article had written to him, and requested deletion, because he didn't want to be covered by a wikipedia article. The administrator was clear, the guy hadn't complained about the article being inaccurate, or unfair. He just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: I corresponded with that administrator, half a dozen times, over the next two years, when new RS about the guy emerged. He was very nice about it, but he wasn't going to restore the article.<br />
<br />
: So, I gave up on him, and took it to the wikipedia's deletion review forum. Everyone there agreed that subjects don't get to have their articles deleted just because they don't want to be covered. If the wikipedia allowed that, and news got around, it might then be flooded with hundreds of thousands of requests for deletion from people who just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: So, the article on my guy was restored. The ironic thing is that when he left the public sector, and became a pure private industry consultant, I think I detected him making edits to the article himself. I didn't out him for lapsing from the conflict of interest policy, under the "don't sweat the small stuff" rule.<br />
<br />
: But, the whole experience reinforced for me the importance of standing firm, and not agreeing to delete neutrally written properly documented articles on public figures.<br />
<br />
: If Ms Doran had a serious justification would she have sought a publication ban from her judge? Is it possible she sought one, and the judge turned that request down?<br />
<br />
: TimesSquares, I am going to return to conflict of interest. If I am not mistaken while there is a conflict of interest policy on the wikipedia, there is no conflict of interest policy here on wikialpha. But I'd be grateful if you an Rararian clarified whether you had a real life tie to Ms Paravas's firm, or a real life tie to her legal opponents.

<br />
::Please contact Trisha Paravas and her attorney directly if you have any further questions. A simple deletion would be enough because I sincerely don't know what this is about. Thank you from a completely clueless confused wiki editor. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:29, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

:::Again, I am sincerely clueless about the situation. Please completely delete the pages and send a one-sentence email, and Trisha Paravas will consider this matter to be resolved. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:38, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

::* You called yourself a freelance writer, and web designer. In addition, I think you are saying that, in this particular case, you were paid to add content you did not yourself write. Is that correct?<br />
<br />
::* Ms Paravas hired you to cut and paste content she provided to you? Hmmm. Couldn't she have just pasted that text in herself? Do you think your admission raises the question of whether she hired freelancers to give the appearance this article was written by volunteers who aimed for neutrality?<br />
<br />
::* So, when it was in her business interest to have an article about herself, that gave the surface appearance of being written by neutral third parties she paid you to do that - and then, when it was in her business interest to have the article deleted she pushed for it to be deleted.<br />

::* Do you think Ms Paravas can meaningfully claim she owns the intellectual property rights to the text she provided to you, when the '''save page''' button requires agreement that the contribution is being put into the public domain?

; My administratorship<br />
<br />
I am an administrator here. So is Matthew. Matthew has been very prolific here, for a long time. I have been pretty prolific too, for close to a decade. Richard trusted us with administrator bits to make our work here easier. Some wikipedia administrators ignore all rules, and make their own policies in areas where the policies are unclear or not yet set. But I don't think Matthew or I should do that here.<br />
<br />
I will use that administrator authority to delete an item, but only when I am absolutely sure I am being helpful. I deleted an article and a image a week or so ago. But I was absolutely sure they really did meet the speedy deletion criteria.<br />
<br />
I am not sure the article on Ms Paravas meets the speedy deletion criteria. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 08:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I can't say much about this, but I do thank you for your time. I am only requesting a page deletion on her behalf. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 08:51, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] ==<br />
<br />
Let's talk about [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] now. Please disregard my comments above and let's start completely again, completely from scratch.<br />
<br />
We are following the procedure for CSD Criterion #3, and nothing else.<br />
<br />
[[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]] had been deleted in good faith due to the following.<br />
<br />
;3. Author requests deletion: If the author of a page or file is the only substantial contributor, they may request that it be deleted if they so wish. Note that this does not apply to user talk pages, which are never deleted, and that these requests are not binding. Add <nowiki>{{Db-requested}}.</nowiki><br />
<br />
We would like to follow the same procedure that [[User:SomeDude]] had followed for [[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]].<br />
<br />
[[User:Ranarian]], [[User:TimesSquares]], and [[User:Albnwunne]] are the only 3 '''substantial contributors''' to the page [[Trisha Paravas]]. All 3 of us would like to unanimously vote to delete it because we so wish, and all 3 of us can sign here indicating our unanimous deletion request. Thank you! [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 09:52, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
*'''Support''' deletion as the page creator. I can't comment on TimesSquares' comments posted in any other page sections of WikiAlpha. I don't know if everything has been neutrally written or not, and I don't know about whether the page could have issues. All I can say is that I support the page deletion. [[User:Ranarian|Ranarian]] ([[User talk:Ranarian|talk]]) 15:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** [[User:Ranarian]], clarification please. I think [[User:TimesSquares]] said that the three of you were paid to submit content supplied to you by Ms Paravas. If you cut and paste content supplied to you by Ms Paravas, for a fee, I can assure you no one would think for one moment that was neutrally written. If I understood what TimeSquares wrote I think it implies a charade, where the paid content was designed to give the appearance it was neutrally written by genuine volunteers, like Matthew and I. <p>So, was your work on Ms Paravas article for a fee? Has all your work on wikialpha been paid work? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:55, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** Can you explain any further the dispute you and TimesSquares had, six months ago, over whether the article was a copyright violation? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:58, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
(edit conflict)<br />
# Do you know [[User:Ranarian]] and [[User:Albnwunne]] worked for Ms Paravas? [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Geo_Swan&oldid=206778#Delete_potential_copyvio This message] from Ranarian implies the opposite.<br />
# Shouldn't they too explicitly call for the article's deletion for the criteria for speedy deletion to be met?<br />
# Didn't you initially call for the article to be deleted as a copyright violation? Copyright violation can be tricky. If the material was taken from another source, like another wiki, its copying could have been permissible. If your initial concern was correct can the three of you claim to be the sole authors?<br />
# I don't mean to be mean about this, but, in your comments, haven't you repeated, multiple times, that the deletion request is being made in good faith? Well, as I pointed out above, the paragraph above the '''save page''' says you promised ''"you wrote this yourself"''. But didn't you acknowledge you submitted content supplied to you by Ms Paravas - ie not written by you? I don't mean to be mean about this, but, if you submitted content written by someone else, that you said you didn't even actually understand, while implying you were a neutral third party who composed the content yourself - does that measure up to a, well, good faith contribution?<br />
# As I explained, above, wikipedia administrators go through a formal process where the community entrusts them with administrator authority, and entrusts them to exercise that authority to use their judgement to implement the wikipedia's policies. Matthew and I, on the other hand, were rewarded with administrator authority in order to make it easier to do our own work. I don't think we were entrusted to make judgement calls as to what is best for wikialpha in tricky cases. I see this as a tricky case, where you and Ms Paravas really need to wait for Richard to weigh in.<br />
* Richard leases or owns the wikialpha servers, and pays all the bills. I see this decision as up to him. If I leased the servers, and paid the bills, I would decline Ms Paravas's request.<br />
* Wikialpha looks like the wikipedia. Wikialpha articles look like they too were written by good faith volunteers aiming for neutrality. Ms Paravas could have paid web designers, like you, to create a brand new website that didn't look like wikipedia, to host the content she wanted online. Presumably she didn't do that because she wanted the content to look like independently written, third party, neutral material. <p>In order to do so she had to agree to put the material in the public domain. I think this means she has no legal right to try to claw it back.<br />
* You keep repeating that Ms Paravas won't be satisfied until she gets an email from wikialpha promising to delete the article about her, and promising wikialpha will never carry an article about her, in future.<br />
* Well, I read about her enough to decide she, or her firm, may measure up to the wikipedia's GNG. She certainly measures up to the much looser inclusion criteria here. I considered drafting a second version of the article about her, that didn't incorporate any of the existing wording. Should Richard promise that no one should be allowed to draft a second version of an article about Ms Paravas?<br />
* When you tell us what Ms Paravas needs to be satisfied - well, did she use that wording? That wording implies Ms Paravas thinks she has an obligation owed to her. But, by paying you to submit content she approved as if you composed that text with no input from an employer, wasn't she trying to trick both readers and the wikialpha management? So, how could wikialpha have an obligation to her?<br />
* Some newspapers publish '''"advertorials"''' - content that was drafted by advertizers, and published after payment, that gave the appearance of neutrally written journalistic content. If Ms Paravas had paid you to put her content on a brand-new website, that didn't look like wikipedia, she would have both paid you, and paid to lease a website server. She chose to skip paying a website server, so how is it she could think wikialpha had an obligation to her, and not vice versa? <br />
* Someone like Richard could start a website like wikialpha, that used the same underlying software as the wikipedia, but with a revenue model of publishing paid content from people like Ms Paravas, who are prepared to pay for articles that look like neutrally written content drafted by good faith volunteers. <br />
* I see that as a decision that would open a can of worms. What if Ms Paravas read everything here, including your assertions of what wikialpha would be required to do to satisfy jer? What if she wrote an email to Richard, clawed back your assertions, apologized for using wikialpha as a server for paid content she didn't have to pay for, and offered to pay him cash money, I dunno, $1000, to delete the article, now that she no longer wants it? If he agreed would Richard have to worry he was being entrapped into a blackmail charge?<br />
* Most, of the wikialpha content was submitted by volunteers, like Matthew and I. It was thousands of hours of work, thousands of hours of volunteer labour. If our neutrally written content, written for free, was mere window dressing to enhance the illusion that paid content, like the content Ms Paravas paid you to submit, was also neutrally written by volunteers, would it be in our interest to continue to volunteer here? <br />
* Any implied threats Ms Paravas has directed against you? Almost certainly just bluffing you can ignore. You can tell her, ''"Ms Paravas, you paid me to put that content up. I did that, and you paid me. Relationship over."'' Then ignore all future emails and phone calls. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:44, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

<br />
I sent an email to Trish Paravas and Erica Donan... [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 19:20, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
:{| class="wikitable"<br />
|+ email I sent to Trish Paravas and Erica Donan<br />
|-<br />
|<br />
I have been a volunteer at wikialpha for close to a decade. I am not an employee. Nevertheless two of the three individuals who worked on the wikialpha article on Ms Paravas asked for my help in getting it deleted. <br />
<br />
If I understood him properly, one of those individuals says you paid him to cut and paste content you provided into a wikialpha article about you, and that you now require that article to be deleted.<br />
<br />
If I understood him properly you require a letter from the wikialpha administration assuring you that, first, the article had been deleted, and, second, that wikialpha management assure you it will never carry an article about you, in future.<br />
<br />
Could you please clarify how much of that is accurate?<br />
* Did you pay people to add content to create an article about you?<br />
* Are you now behind the request for its deletion?<br />
* Are you really seeking assurance that no one ever write an article about you?<br />
<br />
Because of all these questions I found myself reading the various versions of the existing article, and reading the news articles about you and your firm. In my opinion you may measure up to the criteria for a standalone article on the wikipedia, and you unquestionably meet the inclusion criteria for wikialpha.<br />
<br />
Over on the wikipedia nothing prevents someone making a good faith attempt to create a second version of an article that has been deleted, although they would be well advised to address the policy shortfalls that triggered the first deletion.<br />
<br />
If you actually did seek a promise that no one ever create an article about you I have to tell you that seems unprecedented to me. <br />
<br />
Ultimately I see your request being one best decided by wikialpha's owner, Richard, who your employees can help you reach.<br />
<br />

Hi Geo Swan. I'm glad to have you aboard and thank for your contributions. I see you have a great deal of good articles userfied over at Wikipedia. I'm fairly certain that they'd be welcome here. Anyhoo, I just wanted to say hi and thanks for contributing. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:17, 6 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
== Articles deleted from Wikipedia ==<br />
<br />
I'm working on your list of articles deleted from Wikipedia. Looks like some have been userfied, so I'm still running through the list trying to figure things out.<br />
<br />
The first 20 have been undeleted and copied over here at WikiAlpha by Moonriddengirl who has been generously helping me. There is a [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10105 list here] showing the progress I'm making. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:48, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
* Thank you very much with your help with this. I anticipate this will be hundreds of hours of work to get these deleted articles into article space here. And I appreciate every bit of assistance. <br />
* Another complication is that in some cases the article on the captive has been replaced by a namesake. [[Charles H. Carpenter]] being a case in point. <br />
* I'll try to get all the userified ones copied here within the next 10 days. For them I can look at the full revision history and form my own judgment as to whether I was the sole author of the intellectual content. When I askedthe closing admin of [[Charles H. Carpenter (lawyer)]] for their help I asked them if they could either also email me a listing of the contributors, or confirm my recollection I was the sole author of its intellectual content. They didn't confirm, orsend me a listing. I am not 100% comfortable, but I went with my recollection.<br />

::I've gone through the list and [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10265 updated it here] .It appears about half are already userfied, so I included those links for convenience.

* If you introduce new material here, when your block period is over, you could cut and paste sections you drafted here back there.<br />
<br />
* Someone nominated the [[Danqi Chen]] for speedy deletion. If it is deleted, or any of the other articles is deleted, the version here will still be readable. This wiki falls far lower on a google search list than a wikipedia article. But, when the wikipedia article is deleted some people will see the version here.<br />
<br />
* If you like, I will offer my opinion as to what might trigger problems with your work, here, so, when you have access to the wikipedia, you can avoid some of the problems you encountered before.<br />
<br />
* As for whether you really have to wait six months... I am only an observer. Sometimes people make a convincing case for early restoration, but it isn't looking promising for you. Did you get blocked from your user talk page? That is not promising.<br />

== Deleting the old version of the picture. ==<br />
[[File:Creative_style.jpg | thumb | 200px]]<br />
Good afternoon. Can I ask you to delete the old version of the picture?<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/images/archive/8/86/20200302182900%21Creative_style.jpg 11:43, 8 November 2015<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/wiki/File:Creative_style.jpg<br />
<br />
* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], you call this ''"the old version"''. Are you arguing it should be replaced by a newer version?<br />
<br />
: This image is in use, in [[Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)]]. [[User:Stella|Stella]] uploaded it, in 2015.<br />
<br />
: I saw your note on [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]]. He and I have been entrusted with administrator authority here, mainly because we have both been very prolific here, and it helps us do our own work. <br />
<br />
: The inclusion rules here are much looser than on the wikipedia. I would delete an image, without consulting the site's owners, if there was a very clear cut reason - like if it seemed like "revenge-porn". This isn't an example. You haven't really offered a reason for deletion. If Mathew or I did delete the image, we would have an obligation to explain to Stella, the uploader, why we did so.<br />
<br />
: FWIW, if you want to link to an image, without it rendering on a page, preface it with a colon, like this, <code><nowiki>[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]</nowiki></code>. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:* Ah. Once I clicked on the wikilink to the image, [[:File:Creative_style.jpg]], I see someone uploaded a slightly different version of the image in March, 2020. <br />
<br />
:: On the wikipedia older versions of images are only very rarely deleted. 99.9 % percent of the time all versions are kept. <br />
<br />
:: The old version, here, is only 73 kb. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* Yes, I wanted to ask You to delete the old version. I like the new version with flowers, it doesn't need to be deleted. I wanted to delete the 2015 version. The author of the picture asked me to delete the old version, and let the new one remain. If it is not difficult, please delete the old version. <br>[[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], understanding discussions is best done when everyone observes the usual indentation conventions. I encourage you to learn them.<br />
<br />
:::: Older images are only rarely deleted. Someone would have to take extraordinary efforts to look at the older version. So I think it requires extraordinary reasons to delete. What if Stella returned here, told me she preferred the original version, and asked me why I deleted it - what am I to tell her?<br />
<br />
:::: Over on the wikipedia, images are allowed to be used under "fair use", but only under rare conditions. There are individuals who reduce the resolution of those fair use images. They '''then''' delete the original version. It is the only time I have seen older versions deleted. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::: I was asked to delete by the author himself, I am not the administrator of this wiki encyclopedia. Let the new version remain. Everything else I personally like. The author is currently making new versions of the paintings, so he asked me to delete the old version of the painting... [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::: Thanks for using indentation. It doesn't look like you read the reasons why I declined your earlier requests. Forgive me, but I am going to ignore any further requests you make that don't address my replies. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:51, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::: I didn't think it would be so hard to delete an old version of the picture. I'm not saying that you would completely delete it, I asked you to delete only the old version. Besides, it's not Wikipedia. Ignore it, your right. I gave you the reason for the deletion (request from the author of the picture).<br />
::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::::* Yes, I saw you said the author of the picture requested deletion of the old version. You ignored my reply. Only the most recent version is visible, without a lot of effort.<br />
<br />
:::::::: I googled "Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)". I bet you know what I found. Dozens of other wikis have essentially the same article about him.<br />
<br />
:::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], did you use [[User:Welux8|Welux8]] to upload that image, back in March? Are you [[User:Stella]]? Did you start some of those dozens of duplicate articles, on the other wikis?<br />
<br />
:::::::: When you refer to what the author wants, are you referring to Tatarnikov? Are you, yourself, Tatarnikov? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 21:52, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::::: Who cares who I am? Even if this old version is not removed, I will not be upset. Let there be both a new and an old version. Is that so hard to do? Why do you need the old version? [[User:Walte8|Walte8]] <br />
<br />
== Deleting my picture from the site ==<br />
Good afternoon. My picture was uploaded to Your site. It is displayed on our search engine in Russia.<br />
Please delete the old version of my creative work from the site. Please understand the situation and delete the old version of my image.<br />
[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]<br />
<br />
{{unsigned|DiezelSun|2020-10-21T02:52:03}}<br />

Please delete the old version of the image, as it belongs to my intellectual property. Today I registered on the site.<br />
[[User:DiezelSun|DiezelSun]]<br />
Each picture has its own author and this author can ask either to replace it with a new version, or to delete the picture, this is his intellectual property, which is established in the civil code. Any country in the world has intellectual property laws, including the United States, Russia, and England. Will you continue to think that this is not the author of the paintings? I am the author of this picture. I am writing to you in all seriousness. I have intellectual property rights to these paintings. So please delete the old version of the image. If you think I'm not the author, you're wrong about that.<br />

===Reply===<br />
Hi Geo Swan, at the moment, there is nothing about copyright. The full explanation had already been given at Richard's talk page at [[User talk:Richard]]. Here is a letter regarding the [[Trisha Paravas]] page deletion request.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Fashion Week Inc.'s corporate attorney Ms. Erica Doran, has requested that Ms. Trisha Paravas' (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha page to be deleted permanently from public view due to a pending legal matter at New York federal court. In addition, Ms. Doran requests a WikiAlpha administrator to provide a written confirmation that Ms. Paravas' WikiAlpha page has been deleted permanently from public view and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha administrators in the future indefinitely. The reason for the request for permanent deletion of Ms. Trisha Paravas' WikiAlpha page is a legal necessity and requirement. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation. We look forward to receiving a written confirmation from WikiAlpha admins as soon as possible.</blockquote><br />
<br />
The written confirmation can be sent to ericadoran@gmail.com, to trish.paravas@fw-investors.com, or at [[User talk:TimesSquares]].<br />
<br />
This is a polite request to delete the pages [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] due to legal orders. I myself do not intend to harass anyone or post any legal threats and am simply relaying Trisha Paravas's request. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 04:49, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Everything on the pages had always been written with Trisha Paravas's full approval. All WikiAlpha contributors who have worked on the page have all had her full approval. She previously had approved for her page to be published, and is now requesting a page deletion. A simple email from you or any other WikiAlpha administrator stating: '''"Ms. Trisha Paravas's (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha.org page has been permanently deleted from public view at WikiAlpha.org, and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha.org admins in the future indefinitely."''' This statement should suffice, and the matter would be considered resolved provided the content is deleted and confirmed. That is it: a simple deletion and one-sentence confirmation via email to ericadoran@gmail.com, and trish.paravas@fw-investors.com. Thank you very much.

<br />
(edit conflict)<br />
<br />
: Lawyers. <br />
<br />
: Lawyers sometimes make ridiculous and unsupportable demands, which can safely be ignored. Over at the wikipedia article subjects don't get to try to control their content. Article subjects who make deletion requests, as a courtesy, get a fair hearing. Neither the wikipedia or wikialpha, or any one else, has an obligation to delete anything written about a public figure, when that material is fair and honest.<br />
<br />
: Over at the wikipedia parties who request courtesy deletion, who seem dishonest, or bluster and bully, have their requests turned down. Individuals who request courtesy, who are significant public figures, have their requests turned down. In general the only people who receive a courtesy deletion are people who are on the cusp, the boundary, of notability.<br />
<br />
: However, wikialpha doesn't have the stringent notability requirements of the wikipedia. So, for a public figure like Ms Paradas, there would be no cusp of notability.<br />
<br />
: So, did Ms Doran write to you? Why you? If they wrote you, why didn't you include a verbatim copy of this letter?<br />
<br />
: Her legal dispute is complicated. Is Fashion Week Inc Ms Paradas's company? Or is it one of the firms she has a dispute with?<br />
<br />
: Have you ever heard of Mattel's Cyber Patrol? If you thought a toy company, like Mattel, would have nice lawyers you would be wrong.<br />
<br />
: In the late 1990s, much earlier in the history of the Internet, Mattel thought "Parents trust us. We could sell them an (expensive) program and tell them it would protect their children from the dangers of the internet." Internally, their product, Cyber Patrol, was a stinking pile of crap. But well marketed. A couple of Computer Science students reverse engineered how it worked, and found it was just a very simple minded blacklist. If a parent ran it one the family computer it tried to block all URLs to news sites. And it tried to block all URLs that looked like they might lead to naughty pictures. But it did so in such a lazy manner, that it blocked a lot of innocent sites. It blocked everything from Carnegie Mellon university, apparently because a woman's bosoms are sometimes referred to as "melons".<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: The two students wrote an academic paper on their work. They published the source code to the program that decrypted cyber patrols blacklist database. (Mattel's programmers used very weak encryption, 19th century encryption.)<br />
<br />
: Mattel's lawyers made an enormous effort to suppress that source code. They sent their customers updated blacklists that blocked all the mirrors that held that source code, and all the sites where problems with cyber patrol were discussed.<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: After a week or two the two students went silent. Mattel's lawyers had convinced them that, since Mattel was a billion dollar company, their lives would be ruined unless they completely buckled. Mattel's lawers apparently demanded that they not only go silent, but sign over all the intellectual property rights to their programs and papers. Mattel's lawyers apparently threatened to bankrupt them and tie them up with years of lawsuits, unless they completely buckled.<br />
<br />
: The laughable part of this story was that they then threatened to sue the people managing the mirror sites. [[Steve Mann]], an early expert in wearable computers, wrote about their threats for his continuing to mirror the source code. They claimed Mattel now owned the source code and Mann was violating Mattel's intellectual property rights by continuing to mirror it. Mann pointed out that, as was the usual practice for sites where programmers offered their source code, the two students had already released most of their intellectual property rights when they put their source code under the GNU license, which is like creative commons.<br />
<br />
: Mann's correspondence with these hyper aggressive yet incompetent lawyers seemed to show they did not understand intellectual property. It sounded like they were angry at the students because they didn't realize that when they agreed to sign over all their intellectual property rights they were signing over a mere rump, because the students had already released significant rights.<br />
<br />
: If I recall Mann's correspondence properly Mattel's lawyers were considering suing the kids into bankruptcy after all.<br />
<br />
: Mattel ended up selling cyber patrol to another firm, at a huge discount, because its value had been blown.<br />
<br />
: Now, if I am not mistaken, everything that was put into the article(s) on Ms Paradas was backed up by meaningful references. If I am not mistaken, it didn't slander anyone. So, Ms Doran has no legal justification to request its deletion.<br />
<br />
: This is all up to Richard, since wikialpha lacks the strict notability criteria of the wikipedia. He could decide keeping the article was going to be just too much trouble. But, if it were up to me, I'd stand on principle and tell Ms Doran her deletion request was going to be declined.<br />
<br />
: Another anecdote. About a decade ago I started an article on guy who was a counter-terrorism expert. He had written a paper on counter-terrorism, which I had cited in another wikipedia article. As I cited it I decided I should learn who he was. At the time he wrote those articles on counter-terrorism he was a public figure. He published. He was a public speaker. He was a panelist at conferences. He was a professor specializing in security and counter-terrorism at, iirc, the Coast Guard Academy.<br />
<br />
: He also remained a part time NCIS agent. Prior to becoming an academic he had a long career as a counter-terrorism expert, who engaged in classified assignments. He had been an interrogator at Guantanamo. People don't know this, but the military interrogators had to share the Guantanamo captives with other agencies, including the CIA. Our guy had been assigned to a joint task force, the Criminal Investigation Task Force.<br />
<br />
: He had earned some kind of highly prestigious award for secret work, which was, itself, classified. Except some of the sources that wrote about it revealed that the award had come with a very substantial cash payment. <br />
<br />
: I had only learned part of this when I put the initial article into article space. I had only spent a half hour or an hour at it. Or, at least I thought I had. <br />
<br />
: But, when I went looking for it, to add more information, I couldn't find it. I wondered whether, as sometimes happens, my session had gone stale, so that when I thought I save it, the article wasn't saved, after all. <br />
<br />
: But that wasn't it. It had been deleted, without the deleting administrator telling me what he had done.<br />
<br />
: He was nice about it. He sat on the OTRS, and the subject of the article had written to him, and requested deletion, because he didn't want to be covered by a wikipedia article. The administrator was clear, the guy hadn't complained about the article being inaccurate, or unfair. He just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: I corresponded with that administrator, half a dozen times, over the next two years, when new RS about the guy emerged. He was very nice about it, but he wasn't going to restore the article.<br />
<br />
: So, I gave up on him, and took it to the wikipedia's deletion review forum. Everyone there agreed that subjects don't get to have their articles deleted just because they don't want to be covered. If the wikipedia allowed that, and news got around, it might then be flooded with hundreds of thousands of requests for deletion from people who just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: So, the article on my guy was restored. The ironic thing is that when he left the public sector, and became a pure private industry consultant, I think I detected him making edits to the article himself. I didn't out him for lapsing from the conflict of interest policy, under the "don't sweat the small stuff" rule.<br />
<br />
: But, the whole experience reinforced for me the importance of standing firm, and not agreeing to delete neutrally written properly documented articles on public figures.<br />
<br />
: If Ms Doran had a serious justification would she have sought a publication ban from her judge? Is it possible she sought one, and the judge turned that request down?<br />
<br />
: TimesSquares, I am going to return to conflict of interest. If I am not mistaken while there is a conflict of interest policy on the wikipedia, there is no conflict of interest policy here on wikialpha. But I'd be grateful if you an Rararian clarified whether you had a real life tie to Ms Paradas's firm, or a real life tie to her legal opponents.

::Hi Geo Swan, [[User:Ranarian]], I, and everyone else who has ever edited Trisha Paravas's WikiAlpha page are completely clueless about Trisha Paravas's situation. All users who had edited [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] are independent contractors who are just hired to copy and paste and format. That is it. I am not in any way officially affiliated with Trisha Paravas or her legal opponents. There is no "real-life" connection other than the fact that she had paid freelance writers to copy and paste and edit content that we do not understand. I do not read and write legalese, and I sincerely do not know what the case is all about. I am just a random freelance web designer hired to publish drafted text Trisha Paravas had provided me. I did not compose any of the text myself. Please contact her and her attorney directly if you have any further questions. A simple deletion would be enough because I sincerely don't know what this is about. Thank you from a completely clueless confused wiki editor. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:29, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Again, I am sincerely clueless about the situation. Please completely delete the pages and send a one-sentence email, and Trisha Paravas will consider this matter to be resolved. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:38, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* You called yourself a freelance writer, and web designer. In addition, I think you are saying that, in this particular case, you were paid to add content you did not yourself write. Is that correct?<br />
<br />
::* Ms Paradas hired you to cut and paste content she provided to you? Hmmm. Couldn't she have just pasted that text in herself? Do you think your admission raises the question of whether she hired freelancers to give the appearance this article was written by volunteers who aimed for neutrality?<br />
<br />
::* So, when it was in her business interest to have an article about herself, that gave the surface appearance of being written by neutral third parties she paid you to do that - and then, when it was in her business interest to have the article deleted she pushed for it to be deleted.<br />

; My administratorship<br />
<br />
I am an administrator here. So is Matthew. Matthew has been very prolific here, for a long time. I have been pretty prolific too, for close to a decade. Richard trusted us with administrator bits to make our work here easier. Some wikipedia administrators ignore all rules, and make their own policies in areas where the policies are unclear or not yet set. But I don't think Matthew or I should do that here.<br />
<br />
I will use that administrator authority to delete an item, but only when I am absolutely sure I am being helpful. I deleted an article and a image a week or so ago. But I was absolutely sure they really did meet the speedy deletion criteria.<br />
<br />
I am not sure the article on Ms Paradas meets the speedy deletion criteria. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 08:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I can't say much about this, but I do thank you for your time. I am only requesting a page deletion on her behalf. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 08:51, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] ==<br />
<br />
Let's talk about [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] now. Please disregard my comments above and let's start completely again, completely from scratch.<br />
<br />
We are following the procedure for CSD Criterion #3, and nothing else.<br />
<br />
[[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]] had been deleted in good faith due to the following.<br />
<br />
;3. Author requests deletion: If the author of a page or file is the only substantial contributor, they may request that it be deleted if they so wish. Note that this does not apply to user talk pages, which are never deleted, and that these requests are not binding. Add <nowiki>{{Db-requested}}.</nowiki><br />
<br />
We would like to follow the same procedure that [[User:SomeDude]] had followed for [[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]].<br />
<br />
[[User:Ranarian]], [[User:TimesSquares]], and [[User:Albnwunne]] are the only 3 '''substantial contributors''' to the page [[Trisha Paravas]]. All 3 of us would like to unanimously vote to delete it because we so wish, and all 3 of us can sign here indicating our unanimous deletion request. Thank you! [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 09:52, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
*'''Support''' deletion as the page creator. I can't comment on TimesSquares' comments posted in any other page sections of WikiAlpha. I don't know if everything has been neutrally written or not, and I don't know about whether the page could have issues. All I can say is that I support the page deletion. [[User:Ranarian|Ranarian]] ([[User talk:Ranarian|talk]]) 15:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** [[User:Ranarian]], clarification please. I think [[User:TimesSquares]] said that the three of you were paid to submit content supplied to you by Ms Paradas. If you cut and paste content supplied to you by Ms Paradas, for a fee, I can assure you no one would think for one moment that was neutrally written. If I understood what TimeSquares wrote I think it implies a charade, where the paid content was designed to give the appearance it was neutrally written by genuine volunteers, like Matthew and I. <p>So, was your work on Ms Paradas article for a fee? Has all your work on wikialpha been paid work? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:55, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** Can you explain any further the dispute you and TimesSquares had, six months ago, over whether the article was a copyright violation? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:58, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
(edit conflict)<br />
# Do you know [[User:Ranarian]] and [[User:Albnwunne]] worked for Ms Paradas? [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Geo_Swan&oldid=206778#Delete_potential_copyvio This message] from Ranarian implies the opposite.<br />
# Shouldn't they too explicitly call for the article's deletion for the criteria for speedy deletion to be met?<br />
# Didn't you initially call for the article to be deleted as a copyright violation? Copyright violation can be tricky. If the material was taken from another source, like another wiki, its copying could have been permissible. If your initial concern was correct can the three of you claim to be the sole authors?<br />
# I don't mean to be mean about this, but, in your comments, haven't you repeated, multiple times, that the deletion request is being made in good faith? Well, as I pointed out above, the paragraph above the '''save page''' says you promised ''"you wrote this yourself"''. But didn't you acknowledge you submitted content supplied to you by Ms Paradas - ie not written by you? I don't mean to be mean about this, but, if you submitted content written by someone else, that you said you didn't even actually understand, while implying you were a neutral third party who composed the content yourself - does that measure up to a, well, good faith contribution?<br />
# As I explained, above, wikipedia administrators go through a formal process where the community entrusts them with administrator authority, and entrusts them to exercise that authority to use their judgement to implement the wikipedia's policies. Matthew and I, on the other hand, were rewarded with administrator authority in order to make it easier to do our own work. I don't think we were entrusted to make judgement calls as to what is best for wikialpha in tricky cases. I see this as a tricky case, where you and Ms Paradas really need to wait for Richard to weigh in.<br />
* Richard leases or owns the wikialpha servers, and pays all the bills. I see this decision as up to him. If I leased the servers, and paid the bills, I would decline Ms Paradas's request.<br />
* Wikialpha looks like the wikipedia. Wikialpha articles look like they too were written by good faith volunteers aiming for neutrality. Ms Paradas could have paid web designers, like you, to create a brand new website that didn't look like wikipedia, to host the content she wanted online. Presumably she didn't do that because she wanted the content to look like independently written, third party, neutral material. <p>In order to do so she had to agree to put the material in the public domain. I think this means she has no legal right to try to claw it back.<br />
* You keep repeating that Ms Paradas won't be satisfied until she gets an email from wikialpha promising to delete the article about her, and promising wikialpha will never carry an article about her, in future.<br />
* Well, I read about her enough to decide she, or her firm, may measure up to the wikipedia's GNG. She certainly measures up to the much looser inclusion criteria here. I considered drafting a second version of the article about her, that didn't incorporate any of the existing wording. Should Richard promise that no one should be allowed to draft a second version of an article about Ms Paradas?<br />
* When you tell us what Ms Paradas needs to be satisfied - well, did she use that wording? That wording implies Ms Paradas thinks she has an obligation owed to her. But, by paying you to submit content she approved as if you composed that text with no input from an employer, wasn't she trying to trick both readers and the wikialpha management? So, how could wikialpha have an obligation to her?<br />
* Some newspapers publish '''"advertorials"''' - content that was drafted by advertizers, and published after payment, that gave the appearance of neutrally written journalistic content. If Ms Paradas had paid you to put her content on a brand-new website, that didn't look like wikipedia, she would have both paid you, and paid to lease a website server. She chose to skip paying a website server, so how is it she could think wikialpha had an obligation to her, and not vice versa? <br />
* Someone like Richard could start a website like wikialpha, that used the same underlying software as the wikipedia, but with a revenue model of publishing paid content from people like Ms Paradas, who are prepared to pay for articles that look like neutrally written content drafted by good faith volunteers. <br />
* I see that as a decision that would open a can of worms. What if Ms Paradas read everything here, including your assertions of what wikialpha would be required to do to satisfy jer? What if she wrote an email to Richard, clawed back your assertions, apologized for using wikialpha as a server for paid content she didn't have to pay for, and offered to pay him cash money, I dunno, $1000, to delete the article, now that she no longer wants it? If he agreed would Richard have to worry he was being entrapped into a blackmail charge?<br />
* Most, of the wikialpha content was submitted by volunteers, like Matthew and I. It was thousands of hours of work, thousands of hours of volunteer labour. If our neutrally written content, written for free, was mere window dressing to enhance the illusion that paid content, like the content Ms Paradas paid you to submit, was also neutrally written by volunteers, would it be in our interest to continue to volunteer here? <br />
* Any implied threats Ms Paradas has directed against you? Almost certainly just bluffing you can ignore. You can tell her, ''"Ms Paradas, you paid me to put that content up. I did that, and you paid me. Relationship over."'' Then ignore all future emails and phone calls. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:44, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

Hi Geo Swan. I'm glad to have you aboard and thank for your contributions. I see you have a great deal of good articles userfied over at Wikipedia. I'm fairly certain that they'd be welcome here.

== Articles deleted from Wikipedia ==<br />
<br />
I'm working on your list of articles deleted from Wikipedia. Looks like some have been userfied, so I'm still running through the list trying to figure things out.<br />
<br />
The first 20 have been undeleted and copied over here at WikiAlpha by Moonriddengirl who has been generously helping me. There is a [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10105 list here] showing the progress I'm making. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:48, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
* Thank you very much with your help with this. I anticipate this will be hundreds of hours of work to get these deleted articles into article space here. And I appreciate every bit of assistance. <br />
* Another complication is that in some cases the article on the captive has been replaced by a namesake. [[Charles H. Carpenter]] being a case in point. <br />
* I'll try to get all the userified ones copied here within the next 10 days. For them I can look at the full revision history and form my own judgment as to whether I was the sole author of the intellectual content. When I askedthe closing admin of [[Charles H. Carpenter (lawyer)]] for their help I asked them if they could either also email me a listing of the contributors, or confirm my recollection I was the sole author of its intellectual content. They didn't confirm, orsend me a listing. I am not 100% comfortable, but I went with my recollection.<br />

* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], you call this ''"the old version"''. Are you arguing it should be replaced by a newer version?<br />

<br />
: I saw your note on [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]]. He and I have been entrusted with administrator authority here, mainly because we have both been very prolific here, and it helps us do our own work. <br />
<br />
: The inclusion rules here are much looser than on the wikipedia. I would delete an image, without consulting the site's owners, if there was a very clear cut reason - like if it seemed like "revenge-porn". This isn't an example. You haven't really offered a reason for deletion. If Mathew or I did delete the image, we would have an obligation to explain to Stella, the uploader, why we did so.<br />

:: On the wikipedia older versions of images are only very rarely deleted. 99.9 % percent of the time all versions are kept. <br />
<br />
:: The old version, here, is only 73 kb. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* Yes, I wanted to ask You to delete the old version. I like the new version with flowers, it doesn't need to be deleted. I wanted to delete the 2015 version. The author of the picture asked me to delete the old version, and let the new one remain. If it is not difficult, please delete the old version. <br>[[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], understanding discussions is best done when everyone observes the usual indentation conventions. I encourage you to learn them.<br />
<br />
:::: Older images are only rarely deleted. Someone would have to take extraordinary efforts to look at the older version. So I think it requires extraordinary reasons to delete. What if Stella returned here, told me she preferred the original version, and asked me why I deleted it - what am I to tell her?<br />
<br />
:::: Over on the wikipedia, images are allowed to be used under "fair use", but only under rare conditions. There are individuals who reduce the resolution of those fair use images. They '''then''' delete the original version. It is the only time I have seen older versions deleted. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::: I was asked to delete by the author himself, I am not the administrator of this wiki encyclopedia. Let the new version remain. Everything else I personally like. The author is currently making new versions of the paintings, so he asked me to delete the old version of the painting... [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::: Thanks for using indentation. It doesn't look like you read the reasons why I declined your earlier requests. Forgive me, but I am going to ignore any further requests you make that don't address my replies. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:51, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::: I didn't think it would be so hard to delete an old version of the picture. I'm not saying that you would completely delete it, I asked you to delete only the old version. Besides, it's not Wikipedia. Ignore it, your right. I gave you the reason for the deletion (request from the author of the picture).<br />
::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />

<br />
:::::::: I googled "Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)". I bet you know what I found. Dozens of other wikis have essentially the same article about him.<br />
<br />
:::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], did you use [[User:Welux8|Welux8]] to upload that image, back in March? Are you [[User:Stella]]? Did you start some of those dozens of duplicate articles, on the other wikis?<br />
<br />
:::::::: When you refer to what the author wants, are you referring to Tatarnikov? Are you, yourself, Tatarnikov? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 21:52, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::::: Who cares who I am? Even if this old version is not removed, I will not be upset. Let there be both a new and an old version. Is that so hard to do? Why do you need the old version? [[User:Walte8|Walte8]] <br />

== Deleting my picture from the site ==<br />
Good afternoon. My picture was uploaded to Your site. It is displayed on our search engine in Russia.<br />
Please delete the old version of my creative work from the site. Please understand the situation and delete the old version of my image.<br />
[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]<br />
<br />
{{unsigned|DiezelSun|2020-10-21T02:52:03}}<br />

Please delete the old version of the image, as it belongs to my intellectual property. Today I registered on the site.<br />
[[User:DiezelSun|DiezelSun]]<br />
Each picture has its own author and this author can ask either to replace it with a new version, or to delete the picture, this is his intellectual property, which is established in the civil code. Any country in the world has intellectual property laws, including the United States, Russia, and England. Will you continue to think that this is not the author of the paintings? I am the author of this picture. I am writing to you in all seriousness. I have intellectual property rights to these paintings. So please delete the old version of the image. If you think I'm not the author, you're wrong about that.<br />

Hi Geo Swan, at the moment, there is nothing about copyright. The full explanation had already been given at Richard's talk page at [[User talk:Richard]]. Here is a letter regarding the [[Trisha Paravas]] page deletion request.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Fashion Week Inc.'s corporate attorney Ms. Erica Doran, has requested that Ms. Trisha Paravas' (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha page to be deleted permanently from public view due to a pending legal matter at New York federal court. In addition, Ms. Doran requests a WikiAlpha administrator to provide a written confirmation that Ms. Paravas' WikiAlpha page has been deleted permanently from public view and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha administrators in the future indefinitely. The reason for the request for permanent deletion of Ms. Trisha Paravas' WikiAlpha page is a legal necessity and requirement. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation. We look forward to receiving a written confirmation from WikiAlpha admins as soon as possible.</blockquote><br />
<br />
The written confirmation can be sent to ericadoran@gmail.com, to trish.paravas@fw-investors.com, or at [[User talk:TimesSquares]].<br />
<br />
This is a polite request to delete the pages [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] due to legal orders. I myself do not intend to harass anyone or post any legal threats and am simply relaying Trisha Paravas's request. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 04:49, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Everything on the pages had always been written with Trisha Paravas's full approval. All WikiAlpha contributors who have worked on the page have all had her full approval. She previously had approved for her page to be published, and is now requesting a page deletion. A simple email from you or any other WikiAlpha administrator stating: '''"Ms. Trisha Paravas's (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha.org page has been permanently deleted from public view at WikiAlpha.org, and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha.org admins in the future indefinitely."''' This statement should suffice, and the matter would be considered resolved provided the content is deleted and confirmed. That is it: a simple deletion and one-sentence confirmation via email to ericadoran@gmail.com, and trish.paravas@fw-investors.com. Thank you very much.

(edit conflict)<br />
<br />
: Lawyers. <br />
<br />
: Lawyers sometimes make ridiculous and unsupportable demands, which can safely be ignored. Over at the wikipedia article subjects don't get to try to control their content. Article subjects who make deletion requests, as a courtesy, get a fair hearing. Neither the wikipedia or wikialpha, or any one else, has an obligation to delete anything written about a public figure, when that material is fair and honest.<br />
<br />
: Over at the wikipedia parties who request courtesy deletion, who seem dishonest, or bluster and bully, have their requests turned down. Individuals who request courtesy, who are significant public figures, have their requests turned down. In general the only people who receive a courtesy deletion are people who are on the cusp, the boundary, of notability.<br />
<br />
: However, wikialpha doesn't have the stringent notability requirements of the wikipedia. So, for a public figure like Ms Paradas, there would be no cusp of notability.<br />
<br />
: So, did Ms Doran write to you? Why you? If they wrote you, why didn't you include a verbatim copy of this letter?<br />
<br />
: Her legal dispute is complicated. Is Fashion Week Inc Ms Paradas's company? Or is it one of the firms she has a dispute with?<br />
<br />
: Have you ever heard of Mattel's Cyber Patrol? If you thought a toy company, like Mattel, would have nice lawyers you would be wrong.<br />
<br />
: In the late 1990s, much earlier in the history of the Internet, Mattel thought "Parents trust us. We could sell them an (expensive) program and tell them it would protect their children from the dangers of the internet." Internally, their product, Cyber Patrol, was a stinking pile of crap. But well marketed. A couple of Computer Science students reverse engineered how it worked, and found it was just a very simple minded blacklist. If a parent ran it one the family computer it tried to block all URLs to news sites. And it tried to block all URLs that looked like they might lead to naughty pictures. But it did so in such a lazy manner, that it blocked a lot of innocent sites. It blocked everything from Carnegie Mellon university, apparently because a woman's bosoms are sometimes referred to as "melons".<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: The two students wrote an academic paper on their work. They published the source code to the program that decrypted cyber patrols blacklist database. (Mattel's programmers used very weak encryption, 19th century encryption.)<br />
<br />
: Mattel's lawyers made an enormous effort to suppress that source code. They sent their customers updated blacklists that blocked all the mirrors that held that source code, and all the sites where problems with cyber patrol were discussed.<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: After a week or two the two students went silent. Mattel's lawyers had convinced them that, since Mattel was a billion dollar company, their lives would be ruined unless they completely buckled. Mattel's lawers apparently demanded that they not only go silent, but sign over all the intellectual property rights to their programs and papers. Mattel's lawyers apparently threatened to bankrupt them and tie them up with years of lawsuits, unless they completely buckled.<br />
<br />
: The laughable part of this story was that they then threatened to sue the people managing the mirror sites. [[Steve Mann]], an early expert in wearable computers, wrote about their threats for his continuing to mirror the source code. They claimed Mattel now owned the source code and Mann was violating Mattel's intellectual property rights by continuing to mirror it. Mann pointed out that, as was the usual practice for sites where programmers offered their source code, the two students had already released most of their intellectual property rights when they put their source code under the GNU license, which is like creative commons.<br />
<br />
: Mann's correspondence with these hyper aggressive yet incompetent lawyers seemed to show they did not understand intellectual property. It sounded like they were angry at the students because they didn't realize that when they agreed to sign over all their intellectual property rights they were signing over a mere rump, because the students had already released significant rights.<br />
<br />
: If I recall Mann's correspondence properly Mattel's lawyers were considering suing the kids into bankruptcy after all.<br />
<br />
: Mattel ended up selling cyber patrol to another firm, at a huge discount, because its value had been blown.<br />
<br />
: Now, if I am not mistaken, everything that was put into the article(s) on Ms Paradas was backed up by meaningful references. If I am not mistaken, it didn't slander anyone. So, Ms Doran has no legal justification to request its deletion.<br />
<br />
: This is all up to Richard, since wikialpha lacks the strict notability criteria of the wikipedia. He could decide keeping the article was going to be just too much trouble. But, if it were up to me, I'd stand on principle and tell Ms Doran her deletion request was going to be declined.<br />
<br />
: Another anecdote. About a decade ago I started an article on guy who was a counter-terrorism expert. He had written a paper on counter-terrorism, which I had cited in another wikipedia article. As I cited it I decided I should learn who he was. At the time he wrote those articles on counter-terrorism he was a public figure. He published. He was a public speaker. He was a panelist at conferences. He was a professor specializing in security and counter-terrorism at, iirc, the Coast Guard Academy.<br />
<br />
: He also remained a part time NCIS agent. Prior to becoming an academic he had a long career as a counter-terrorism expert, who engaged in classified assignments. He had been an interrogator at Guantanamo. People don't know this, but the military interrogators had to share the Guantanamo captives with other agencies, including the CIA. Our guy had been assigned to a joint task force, the Criminal Investigation Task Force.<br />
<br />
: He had earned some kind of highly prestigious award for secret work, which was, itself, classified. Except some of the sources that wrote about it revealed that the award had come with a very substantial cash payment. <br />
<br />
: I had only learned part of this when I put the initial article into article space. I had only spent a half hour or an hour at it. Or, at least I thought I had. <br />
<br />
: But, when I went looking for it, to add more information, I couldn't find it. I wondered whether, as sometimes happens, my session had gone stale, so that when I thought I save it, the article wasn't saved, after all. <br />
<br />
: But that wasn't it. It had been deleted, without the deleting administrator telling me what he had done.<br />
<br />
: He was nice about it. He sat on the OTRS, and the subject of the article had written to him, and requested deletion, because he didn't want to be covered by a wikipedia article. The administrator was clear, the guy hadn't complained about the article being inaccurate, or unfair. He just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: I corresponded with that administrator, half a dozen times, over the next two years, when new RS about the guy emerged. He was very nice about it, but he wasn't going to restore the article.<br />
<br />
: So, I gave up on him, and took it to the wikipedia's deletion review forum. Everyone there agreed that subjects don't get to have their articles deleted just because they don't want to be covered. If the wikipedia allowed that, and news got around, it might then be flooded with hundreds of thousands of requests for deletion from people who just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: So, the article on my guy was restored. The ironic thing is that when he left the public sector, and became a pure private industry consultant, I think I detected him making edits to the article himself. I didn't out him for lapsing from the conflict of interest policy, under the "don't sweat the small stuff" rule.<br />
<br />
: But, the whole experience reinforced for me the importance of standing firm, and not agreeing to delete neutrally written properly documented articles on public figures.<br />
<br />
: If Ms Doran had a serious justification would she have sought a publication ban from her judge? Is it possible she sought one, and the judge turned that request down?<br />
<br />
: TimesSquares, I am going to return to conflict of interest. If I am not mistaken while there is a conflict of interest policy on the wikipedia, there is no conflict of interest policy here on wikialpha. But I'd be grateful if you an Rararian clarified whether you had a real life tie to Ms Paradas's firm, or a real life tie to her legal opponents.

<br />
::Hi Geo Swan, [[User:Ranarian]], I, and everyone else who has ever edited Trisha Paravas's WikiAlpha page are completely clueless about Trisha Paravas's situation. All users who had edited [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] are independent contractors who are just hired to copy and paste and format. That is it. I am not in any way officially affiliated with Trisha Paravas or her legal opponents. There is no "real-life" connection other than the fact that she had paid freelance writers to copy and paste and edit content that we do not understand. I do not read and write legalese, and I sincerely do not know what the case is all about. I am just a random freelance web designer hired to publish drafted text Trisha Paravas had provided me. I did not compose any of the text myself. Please contact her and her attorney directly if you have any further questions. A simple deletion would be enough because I sincerely don't know what this is about. Thank you from a completely clueless confused wiki editor. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:29, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Again, I am sincerely clueless about the situation. Please completely delete the pages and send a one-sentence email, and Trisha Paravas will consider this matter to be resolved. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:38, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* You called yourself a freelance writer, and web designer. In addition, I think you are saying that, in this particular case, you were paid to add content you did not yourself write. Is that correct?<br />
<br />
::* Ms Paradas hired you to cut and paste content she provided to you? Hmmm. Couldn't she have just pasted that text in herself? Do you think your admission raises the question of whether she hired freelancers to give the appearance this article was written by volunteers who aimed for neutrality?<br />
<br />
::* So, when it was in her business interest to have an article about herself, that gave the surface appearance of being written by neutral third parties she paid you to do that - and then, when it was in her business interest to have the article deleted she pushed for it to be deleted.<br />
<br />

::* Do you think Ms Paradas can meaningfully claim she owns the intellectual property rights to the text she provided to you, when the '''save page''' button requires agreement that the contribution is being put into the public domain? Do you think it leaves room for her to try to claw it back?<br />
<br />
::* Note the second point. When you clicked '''save page''' weren't you promising you wrote the content yourself? Yet didn't you just acknowledge you were merely pasting in content written by someone else?<br />
<br />
; My administratorship<br />
<br />
I am an administrator here. So is Matthew. Matthew has been very prolific here, for a long time. I have been pretty prolific too, for close to a decade. Richard trusted us with administrator bits to make our work here easier. Some wikipedia administrators ignore all rules, and make their own policies in areas where the policies are unclear or not yet set. But I don't think Matthew or I should do that here.<br />
<br />
I will use that administrator authority to delete an item, but only when I am absolutely sure I am being helpful. I deleted an article and a image a week or so ago. But I was absolutely sure they really did meet the speedy deletion criteria.<br />
<br />
I am not sure the article on Ms Paradas meets the speedy deletion criteria. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 08:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I can't say much about this, but I do thank you for your time. I am only requesting a page deletion on her behalf. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 08:51, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] ==<br />
<br />
Let's talk about [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] now. Please disregard my comments above and let's start completely again, completely from scratch.<br />
<br />
We are following the procedure for CSD Criterion #3, and nothing else.<br />
<br />
[[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]] had been deleted in good faith due to the following.<br />
<br />
;3. Author requests deletion: If the author of a page or file is the only substantial contributor, they may request that it be deleted if they so wish. Note that this does not apply to user talk pages, which are never deleted, and that these requests are not binding. Add <nowiki>{{Db-requested}}.</nowiki><br />
<br />
We would like to follow the same procedure that [[User:SomeDude]] had followed for [[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]].<br />
<br />
[[User:Ranarian]], [[User:TimesSquares]], and [[User:Albnwunne]] are the only 3 '''substantial contributors''' to the page [[Trisha Paravas]]. All 3 of us would like to unanimously vote to delete it because we so wish, and all 3 of us can sign here indicating our unanimous deletion request. Thank you! [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 09:52, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
*'''Support''' deletion as the page creator. I can't comment on TimesSquares' comments posted in any other page sections of WikiAlpha. I don't know if everything has been neutrally written or not, and I don't know about whether the page could have issues. All I can say is that I support the page deletion. [[User:Ranarian|Ranarian]] ([[User talk:Ranarian|talk]]) 15:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** [[User:Ranarian]], clarification please. I think [[User:TimesSquares]] said that the three of you were paid to submit content supplied to you by Ms Paradas. If you cut and paste content supplied to you by Ms Paradas, for a fee, I can assure you no one would think for one moment that was neutrally written. If I understood what TimeSquares wrote I think it implies a charade, where the paid content was designed to give the appearance it was neutrally written by genuine volunteers, like Matthew and I. <p>So, was your work on Ms Paradas article for a fee? Has all your work on wikialpha been paid work? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:55, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** Can you explain any further the dispute you and TimesSquares had, six months ago, over whether the article was a copyright violation? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:58, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
(edit conflict)<br />
# Do you know [[User:Ranarian]] and [[User:Albnwunne]] worked for Ms Paradas? [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Geo_Swan&oldid=206778#Delete_potential_copyvio This message] from Ranarian implies the opposite.<br />
# Shouldn't they too explicitly call for the article's deletion for the criteria for speedy deletion to be met?<br />
# Didn't you initially call for the article to be deleted as a copyright violation? Copyright violation can be tricky. If the material was taken from another source, like another wiki, its copying could have been permissible. If your initial concern was correct can the three of you claim to be the sole authors?<br />
# I don't mean to be mean about this, but, in your comments, haven't you repeated, multiple times, that the deletion request is being made in good faith? Well, as I pointed out above, the paragraph above the '''save page''' says you promised ''"you wrote this yourself"''. But didn't you acknowledge you submitted content supplied to you by Ms Paradas - ie not written by you? I don't mean to be mean about this, but, if you submitted content written by someone else, that you said you didn't even actually understand, while implying you were a neutral third party who composed the content yourself - does that measure up to a, well, good faith contribution?<br />
# As I explained, above, wikipedia administrators go through a formal process where the community entrusts them with administrator authority, and entrusts them to exercise that authority to use their judgement to implement the wikipedia's policies. Matthew and I, on the other hand, were rewarded with administrator authority in order to make it easier to do our own work. I don't think we were entrusted to make judgement calls as to what is best for wikialpha in tricky cases. I see this as a tricky case, where you and Ms Paradas really need to wait for Richard to weigh in.<br />
* Richard leases or owns the wikialpha servers, and pays all the bills. I see this decision as up to him. If I leased the servers, and paid the bills, I would decline Ms Paradas's request.<br />
* Wikialpha looks like the wikipedia. Wikialpha articles look like they too were written by good faith volunteers aiming for neutrality. Ms Paradas could have paid web designers, like you, to create a brand new website that didn't look like wikipedia, to host the content she wanted online. Presumably she didn't do that because she wanted the content to look like independently written, third party, neutral material. <p>In order to do so she had to agree to put the material in the public domain. I think this means she has no legal right to try to claw it back.<br />
* You keep repeating that Ms Paradas won't be satisfied until she gets an email from wikialpha promising to delete the article about her, and promising wikialpha will never carry an article about her, in future.<br />
* Well, I read about her enough to decide she, or her firm, may measure up to the wikipedia's GNG. She certainly measures up to the much looser inclusion criteria here. I considered drafting a second version of the article about her, that didn't incorporate any of the existing wording. Should Richard promise that no one should be allowed to draft a second version of an article about Ms Paradas?<br />
* When you tell us what Ms Paradas needs to be satisfied - well, did she use that wording? That wording implies Ms Paradas thinks she has an obligation owed to her. But, by paying you to submit content she approved as if you composed that text with no input from an employer, wasn't she trying to trick both readers and the wikialpha management? So, how could wikialpha have an obligation to her?<br />
* Some newspapers publish '''"advertorials"''' - content that was drafted by advertizers, and published after payment, that gave the appearance of neutrally written journalistic content. If Ms Paradas had paid you to put her content on a brand-new website, that didn't look like wikipedia, she would have both paid you, and paid to lease a website server. She chose to skip paying a website server, so how is it she could think wikialpha had an obligation to her, and not vice versa? <br />
* Someone like Richard could start a website like wikialpha, that used the same underlying software as the wikipedia, but with a revenue model of publishing paid content from people like Ms Paradas, who are prepared to pay for articles that look like neutrally written content drafted by good faith volunteers. <br />
* I see that as a decision that would open a can of worms. What if Ms Paradas read everything here, including your assertions of what wikialpha would be required to do to satisfy jer? What if she wrote an email to Richard, clawed back your assertions, apologized for using wikialpha as a server for paid content she didn't have to pay for, and offered to pay him cash money, I dunno, $1000, to delete the article, now that she no longer wants it? If he agreed would Richard have to worry he was being entrapped into a blackmail charge?<br />
* Most, of the wikialpha content was submitted by volunteers, like Matthew and I. It was thousands of hours of work, thousands of hours of volunteer labour. If our neutrally written content, written for free, was mere window dressing to enhance the illusion that paid content, like the content Ms Paradas paid you to submit, was also neutrally written by volunteers, would it be in our interest to continue to volunteer here? <br />
* Any implied threats Ms Paradas has directed against you? Almost certainly just bluffing you can ignore. You can tell her, ''"Ms Paradas, you paid me to put that content up. I did that, and you paid me. Relationship over."'' Then ignore all future emails and phone calls. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:44, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

Hi Geo Swan. I'm glad to have you aboard and thank for your contributions. I see you have a great deal of good articles userfied over at Wikipedia. I'm fairly certain that they'd be welcome here. Anyhoo, I just wanted to say hi and thanks for contributing. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:17, 6 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
== Articles deleted from Wikipedia ==<br />
<br />
I'm working on your list of articles deleted from Wikipedia. Looks like some have been userfied, so I'm still running through the list trying to figure things out.<br />
<br />
The first 20 have been undeleted and copied over here at WikiAlpha by Moonriddengirl who has been generously helping me. There is a [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10105 list here] showing the progress I'm making. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:48, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
* Thank you very much with your help with this. I anticipate this will be hundreds of hours of work to get these deleted articles into article space here. And I appreciate every bit of assistance. <br />
* Another complication is that in some cases the article on the captive has been replaced by a namesake. [[Charles H. Carpenter]] being a case in point. <br />
* I'll try to get all the userified ones copied here within the next 10 days. For them I can look at the full revision history and form my own judgment as to whether I was the sole author of the intellectual content. When I askedthe closing admin of [[Charles H. Carpenter (lawyer)]] for their help I asked them if they could either also email me a listing of the contributors, or confirm my recollection I was the sole author of its intellectual content. They didn't confirm, orsend me a listing. I am not 100% comfortable, but I went with my recollection.<br />
:Thanks again! [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 20:16, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
::I've gone through the list and [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10265 updated it here] .It appears about half are already userfied, so I included those links for convenience. There's another set that were moved to your userspace then deleted, so only you are able to ask for those to be undeleted. I'll see if I can get a few admins to undelete the rest and move them here. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 19:10, 12 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
:::I got some very generous help from two great admins, Dcoetzee and WereSpielChequers. It looks like there's only 40 or so articles left to go.

* If you introduce new material here, when your block period is over, you could cut and paste sections you drafted here back there.<br />
<br />
* Someone nominated the [[Danqi Chen]] for speedy deletion. If it is deleted, or any of the other articles is deleted, the version here will still be readable. This wiki falls far lower on a google search list than a wikipedia article. But, when the wikipedia article is deleted some people will see the version here.<br />
<br />
* If you like, I will offer my opinion as to what might trigger problems with your work, here, so, when you have access to the wikipedia, you can avoid some of the problems you encountered before.<br />
<br />
* As for whether you really have to wait six months... I am only an observer. Sometimes people make a convincing case for early restoration, but it isn't looking promising for you. Did you get blocked from your user talk page? That is not promising.<br />
<br />
* With regard to Danqi Chen, just checking out a hunch, do you know her? <br />

An article has just been listed on [[:Category:Candidates for speedy deletion]] as a potential copyvio, so it's best to delete it. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 20:43, 20 February 2020 (UTC)<br />

:* I'd like to understand the issues with this article. Usually, I'd expect a link to the original. Third parties be able to confirm or refute whether something is a copyright violation. I've written material, on non-WMF wikis, and then had that material challenged as a copyvio, when it was ported to the wikipedia. <p>Obviously I can port material I wrote anywhere I want. <p>So, things can seem like a copyvio, but have a legitimate reason for that appearance. {{U|TimesSquares}}, {{U|Ranarian}} [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 01:49, 22 February 2020 (UTC)<br />

== Deleting the old version of the picture. ==<br />
[[File:Creative_style.jpg | thumb | 200px]]<br />
Good afternoon. Can I ask you to delete the old version of the picture?<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/images/archive/8/86/20200302182900%21Creative_style.jpg 11:43, 8 November 2015<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/wiki/File:Creative_style.jpg<br />
<br />
* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], you call this ''"the old version"''. Are you arguing it should be replaced by a newer version?<br />
<br />
: This image is in use, in [[Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)]]. [[User:Stella|Stella]] uploaded it, in 2015.<br />
<br />
: I saw your note on [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]]. He and I have been entrusted with administrator authority here, mainly because we have both been very prolific here, and it helps us do our own work. <br />
<br />
: The inclusion rules here are much looser than on the wikipedia. I would delete an image, without consulting the site's owners, if there was a very clear cut reason - like if it seemed like "revenge-porn". This isn't an example. You haven't really offered a reason for deletion. If Mathew or I did delete the image, we would have an obligation to explain to Stella, the uploader, why we did so.<br />
<br />
: FWIW, if you want to link to an image, without it rendering on a page, preface it with a colon, like this, <code><nowiki>[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]</nowiki></code>. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:* Ah. Once I clicked on the wikilink to the image, [[:File:Creative_style.jpg]], I see someone uploaded a slightly different version of the image in March, 2020. <br />
<br />
:: On the wikipedia older versions of images are only very rarely deleted. 99.9 % percent of the time all versions are kept. <br />
<br />
:: The old version, here, is only 73 kb. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:46, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* Yes, I wanted to ask You to delete the old version. I like the new version with flowers, it doesn't need to be deleted. I wanted to delete the 2015 version. The author of the picture asked me to delete the old version, and let the new one remain. If it is not difficult, please delete the old version. <br>[[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], understanding discussions is best done when everyone observes the usual indentation conventions. I encourage you to learn them.<br />
<br />
:::: Older images are only rarely deleted. Someone would have to take extraordinary efforts to look at the older version. So I think it requires extraordinary reasons to delete. What if Stella returned here, told me she preferred the original version, and asked me why I deleted it - what am I to tell her?<br />
<br />
:::: Over on the wikipedia, images are allowed to be used under "fair use", but only under rare conditions. There are individuals who reduce the resolution of those fair use images. They '''then''' delete the original version. It is the only time I have seen older versions deleted. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::: I was asked to delete by the author himself, I am not the administrator of this wiki encyclopedia. Let the new version remain. Everything else I personally like. The author is currently making new versions of the paintings, so he asked me to delete the old version of the painting... [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::: Thanks for using indentation. It doesn't look like you read the reasons why I declined your earlier requests. Forgive me, but I am going to ignore any further requests you make that don't address my replies. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:51, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::: I didn't think it would be so hard to delete an old version of the picture. I'm not saying that you would completely delete it, I asked you to delete only the old version. Besides, it's not Wikipedia. Ignore it, your right. I gave you the reason for the deletion (request from the author of the picture).<br />
::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::::* Yes, I saw you said the author of the picture requested deletion of the old version. You ignored my reply. Only the most recent version is visible, without a lot of effort.<br />
<br />
:::::::: I googled "Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)". I bet you know what I found. Dozens of other wikis have essentially the same article about him.<br />
<br />
:::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], did you use [[User:Welux8|Welux8]] to upload that image, back in March? Are you [[User:Stella]]? Did you start some of those dozens of duplicate articles, on the other wikis?<br />
<br />
:::::::: When you refer to what the author wants, are you referring to Tatarnikov? Are you, yourself, Tatarnikov? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 21:52, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::::: Who cares who I am? Even if this old version is not removed, I will not be upset. Let there be both a new and an old version. Is that so hard to do? Why do you need the old version? [[User:Walte8|Walte8]] <br />
<br />
== Deleting my picture from the site ==<br />
Good afternoon. My picture was uploaded to Your site. It is displayed on our search engine in Russia.<br />
Please delete the old version of my creative work from the site. Please understand the situation and delete the old version of my image.<br />
[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]<br />
<br />
{{unsigned|DiezelSun|2020-10-21T02:52:03}}<br />
<br />
Please delete the old version of the image, as it belongs to my intellectual property. Today I registered on the site.<br />
[[User:DiezelSun|DiezelSun]]<br />
Each picture has its own author and this author can ask either to replace it with a new version, or to delete the picture, this is his intellectual property, which is established in the civil code. Any country in the world has intellectual property laws, including the United States, Russia, and England. Will you continue to think that this is not the author of the paintings? I am the author of this picture. I am writing to you in all seriousness. I have intellectual property rights to these paintings. So please delete the old version of the image. If you think I'm not the author, you're wrong about that.<br />
<br />
== Delete page ==<br />
<br />
I have sent an email requesting [[Trisha Paravas]] to be deleted. Please delete as soon as possible. Thanks. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 13:02, 9 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
* [[User:TimesSquares]], neither you nor [[User:Ranarian]] responded to my questions at [[Talk:Trish Paravas#Please show your work...]]<br />
<br />
: I asked whether any other wikipedians had worked on the article, prior to it being copied here.

[[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 03:57, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
: Further, a third person [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Trisha_Paravas&type=revision&diff=211143&oldid=209386 made close to a dozen edits] to the article's content.

===Reply===<br />
Hi Geo Swan, at the moment, there is nothing about copyright. The full explanation had already been given at Richard's talk page at [[User talk:Richard]]. Here is a letter regarding the [[Trisha Paravas]] page deletion request.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Fashion Week Inc.'s corporate attorney Ms. Erica Doran, has requested that Ms. Trisha Paravas' (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha page to be deleted permanently from public view due to a pending legal matter at New York federal court. In addition, Ms. Doran requests a WikiAlpha administrator to provide a written confirmation that Ms. Paravas' WikiAlpha page has been deleted permanently from public view and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha administrators in the future indefinitely. The reason for the request for permanent deletion of Ms. Trisha Paravas' WikiAlpha page is a legal necessity and requirement. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation. We look forward to receiving a written confirmation from WikiAlpha admins as soon as possible.</blockquote><br />
<br />
The written confirmation can be sent to ericadoran@gmail.com, to trish.paravas@fw-investors.com, or at [[User talk:TimesSquares]].<br />
<br />
This is a polite request to delete the pages [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] due to legal orders. I myself do not intend to harass anyone or post any legal threats and am simply relaying Trisha Paravas's request. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 04:49, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Everything on the pages had always been written with Trisha Paravas's full approval. All WikiAlpha contributors who have worked on the page have all had her full approval. She previously had approved for her page to be published, and is now requesting a page deletion. A simple email from you or any other WikiAlpha administrator stating: '''"Ms. Trisha Paravas's (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha.org page has been permanently deleted from public view at WikiAlpha.org, and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha.org admins in the future indefinitely."''' This statement should suffice, and the matter would be considered resolved provided the content is deleted and confirmed. That is it: a simple deletion and one-sentence confirmation via email to ericadoran@gmail.com, and trish.paravas@fw-investors.com. Thank you very much.

<br />
(edit conflict)<br />
<br />
: Lawyers. <br />
<br />
: Lawyers sometimes make ridiculous and unsupportable demands, which can safely be ignored. Over at the wikipedia article subjects don't get to try to control their content. Article subjects who make deletion requests, as a courtesy, get a fair hearing. Neither the wikipedia or wikialpha, or any one else, has an obligation to delete anything written about a public figure, when that material is fair and honest.<br />
<br />
: Over at the wikipedia parties who request courtesy deletion, who seem dishonest, or bluster and bully, have their requests turned down. Individuals who request courtesy, who are significant public figures, have their requests turned down. In general the only people who receive a courtesy deletion are people who are on the cusp, the boundary, of notability.<br />
<br />
: However, wikialpha doesn't have the stringent notability requirements of the wikipedia. So, for a public figure like Ms Paradas, there would be no cusp of notability.<br />
<br />
: So, did Ms Doran write to you? Why you? If they wrote you, why didn't you include a verbatim copy of this letter?<br />
<br />
: Her legal dispute is complicated. Is Fashion Week Inc Ms Paradas's company? Or is it one of the firms she has a dispute with?<br />
<br />
: Have you ever heard of Mattel's Cyber Patrol? If you thought a toy company, like Mattel, would have nice lawyers you would be wrong.<br />
<br />
: In the late 1990s, much earlier in the history of the Internet, Mattel thought "Parents trust us. We could sell them an (expensive) program and tell them it would protect their children from the dangers of the internet." Internally, their product, Cyber Patrol, was a stinking pile of crap. But well marketed. A couple of Computer Science students reverse engineered how it worked, and found it was just a very simple minded blacklist. If a parent ran it one the family computer it tried to block all URLs to news sites. And it tried to block all URLs that looked like they might lead to naughty pictures. But it did so in such a lazy manner, that it blocked a lot of innocent sites. It blocked everything from Carnegie Mellon university, apparently because a woman's bosoms are sometimes referred to as "melons".<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: The two students wrote an academic paper on their work. They published the source code to the program that decrypted cyber patrols blacklist database. (Mattel's programmers used very weak encryption, 19th century encryption.)<br />
<br />
: Mattel's lawyers made an enormous effort to suppress that source code. They sent their customers updated blacklists that blocked all the mirrors that held that source code, and all the sites where problems with cyber patrol were discussed.<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: After a week or two the two students went silent. Mattel's lawyers had convinced them that, since Mattel was a billion dollar company, their lives would be ruined unless they completely buckled. Mattel's lawers apparently demanded that they not only go silent, but sign over all the intellectual property rights to their programs and papers. Mattel's lawyers apparently threatened to bankrupt them and tie them up with years of lawsuits, unless they completely buckled.<br />
<br />
: The laughable part of this story was that they then threatened to sue the people managing the mirror sites. [[Steve Mann]], an early expert in wearable computers, wrote about their threats for his continuing to mirror the source code. They claimed Mattel now owned the source code and Mann was violating Mattel's intellectual property rights by continuing to mirror it. Mann pointed out that, as was the usual practice for sites where programmers offered their source code, the two students had already released most of their intellectual property rights when they put their source code under the GNU license, which is like creative commons.<br />
<br />
: Mann's correspondence with these hyper aggressive yet incompetent lawyers seemed to show they did not understand intellectual property. It sounded like they were angry at the students because they didn't realize that when they agreed to sign over all their intellectual property rights they were signing over a mere rump, because the students had already released significant rights.<br />
<br />
: If I recall Mann's correspondence properly Mattel's lawyers were considering suing the kids into bankruptcy after all.<br />
<br />
: Mattel ended up selling cyber patrol to another firm, at a huge discount, because its value had been blown.<br />
<br />
: Now, if I am not mistaken, everything that was put into the article(s) on Ms Paradas was backed up by meaningful references. If I am not mistaken, it didn't slander anyone. So, Ms Doran has no legal justification to request its deletion.<br />
<br />
: This is all up to Richard, since wikialpha lacks the strict notability criteria of the wikipedia. He could decide keeping the article was going to be just too much trouble. But, if it were up to me, I'd stand on principle and tell Ms Doran her deletion request was going to be declined.<br />
<br />
: Another anecdote. About a decade ago I started an article on guy who was a counter-terrorism expert. He had written a paper on counter-terrorism, which I had cited in another wikipedia article. As I cited it I decided I should learn who he was. At the time he wrote those articles on counter-terrorism he was a public figure. He published. He was a public speaker. He was a panelist at conferences. He was a professor specializing in security and counter-terrorism at, iirc, the Coast Guard Academy.<br />
<br />
: He also remained a part time NCIS agent. Prior to becoming an academic he had a long career as a counter-terrorism expert, who engaged in classified assignments. He had been an interrogator at Guantanamo. People don't know this, but the military interrogators had to share the Guantanamo captives with other agencies, including the CIA. Our guy had been assigned to a joint task force, the Criminal Investigation Task Force.<br />
<br />
: He had earned some kind of highly prestigious award for secret work, which was, itself, classified. Except some of the sources that wrote about it revealed that the award had come with a very substantial cash payment. <br />
<br />
: I had only learned part of this when I put the initial article into article space. I had only spent a half hour or an hour at it. Or, at least I thought I had. <br />
<br />
: But, when I went looking for it, to add more information, I couldn't find it. I wondered whether, as sometimes happens, my session had gone stale, so that when I thought I save it, the article wasn't saved, after all. <br />
<br />
: But that wasn't it. It had been deleted, without the deleting administrator telling me what he had done.<br />
<br />
: He was nice about it. He sat on the OTRS, and the subject of the article had written to him, and requested deletion, because he didn't want to be covered by a wikipedia article. The administrator was clear, the guy hadn't complained about the article being inaccurate, or unfair. He just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: I corresponded with that administrator, half a dozen times, over the next two years, when new RS about the guy emerged. He was very nice about it, but he wasn't going to restore the article.<br />
<br />
: So, I gave up on him, and took it to the wikipedia's deletion review forum. Everyone there agreed that subjects don't get to have their articles deleted just because they don't want to be covered. If the wikipedia allowed that, and news got around, it might then be flooded with hundreds of thousands of requests for deletion from people who just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: So, the article on my guy was restored. The ironic thing is that when he left the public sector, and became a pure private industry consultant, I think I detected him making edits to the article himself. I didn't out him for lapsing from the conflict of interest policy, under the "don't sweat the small stuff" rule.<br />
<br />
: But, the whole experience reinforced for me the importance of standing firm, and not agreeing to delete neutrally written properly documented articles on public figures.<br />
<br />
: If Ms Doran had a serious justification would she have sought a publication ban from her judge? Is it possible she sought one, and the judge turned that request down?<br />
<br />
: TimesSquares, I am going to return to conflict of interest. If I am not mistaken while there is a conflict of interest policy on the wikipedia, there is no conflict of interest policy here on wikialpha. But I'd be grateful if you an Rararian clarified whether you had a real life tie to Ms Paradas's firm, or a real life tie to her legal opponents.

::Hi Geo Swan, [[User:Ranarian]], I, and everyone else who has ever edited Trisha Paravas's WikiAlpha page are completely clueless about Trisha Paravas's situation. All users who had edited [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] are independent contractors who are just hired to copy and paste and format. That is it. I am not in any way officially affiliated with Trisha Paravas or her legal opponents. There is no "real-life" connection other than the fact that she had paid freelance writers to copy and paste and edit content that we do not understand. I do not read and write legalese, and I sincerely do not know what the case is all about. I am just a random freelance web designer hired to publish drafted text Trisha Paravas had provided me. I did not compose any of the text myself. Please contact her and her attorney directly if you have any further questions. A simple deletion would be enough because I sincerely don't know what this is about. Thank you from a completely clueless confused wiki editor.

::* You called yourself a freelance writer, and web designer. In addition, I think you are saying that, in this particular case, you were paid to add content you did not yourself write. Is that correct?<br />
<br />
::* Ms Paradas hired you to cut and paste content she provided to you? Hmmm. Couldn't she have just pasted that text in herself? Do you think your admission raises the question of whether she hired freelancers to give the appearance this article was written by volunteers who aimed for neutrality?<br />
<br />
::* So, when it was in her business interest to have an article about herself, that gave the surface appearance of being written by neutral third parties she paid you to do that - and then, when it was in her business interest to have the article deleted she pushed for it to be deleted.<br />

; My administratorship<br />
<br />
I am an administrator here. So is Matthew. Matthew has been very prolific here, for a long time. I have been pretty prolific too, for close to a decade. Richard trusted us with administrator bits to make our work here easier. Some wikipedia administrators ignore all rules, and make their own policies in areas where the policies are unclear or not yet set. But I don't think Matthew or I should do that here.<br />
<br />
I will use that administrator authority to delete an item, but only when I am absolutely sure I am being helpful. I deleted an article and a image a week or so ago. But I was absolutely sure they really did meet the speedy deletion criteria.<br />
<br />
I am not sure the article on Ms Paradas meets the speedy deletion criteria. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 08:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:I can't say much about this, but I do thank you for your time. I am only requesting a page deletion on her behalf. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 08:51, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] ==<br />
<br />
Let's talk about [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] now. Please disregard my comments above and let's start completely again, completely from scratch.<br />
<br />
We are following the procedure for CSD Criterion #3, and nothing else.<br />
<br />
[[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]] had been deleted in good faith due to the following.<br />
<br />
;3. Author requests deletion: If the author of a page or file is the only substantial contributor, they may request that it be deleted if they so wish. Note that this does not apply to user talk pages, which are never deleted, and that these requests are not binding. Add <nowiki>{{Db-requested}}.</nowiki><br />
<br />
We would like to follow the same procedure that [[User:SomeDude]] had followed for [[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]].<br />
<br />
[[User:Ranarian]], [[User:TimesSquares]], and [[User:Albnwunne]] are the only 3 '''substantial contributors''' to the page [[Trisha Paravas]]. All 3 of us would like to unanimously vote to delete it because we so wish, and all 3 of us can sign here indicating our unanimous deletion request. Thank you! [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 09:52, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
*'''Support''' deletion as the page creator. I can't comment on TimesSquares' comments posted in any other page sections of WikiAlpha. I don't know if everything has been neutrally written or not, and I don't know about whether the page could have issues. All I can say is that I support the page deletion. [[User:Ranarian|Ranarian]] ([[User talk:Ranarian|talk]]) 15:33, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** [[User:Ranarian]], clarification please. I think [[User:TimesSquares]] said that the three of you were paid to submit content supplied to you by Ms Paradas. If you cut and paste content supplied to you by Ms Paradas, for a fee, I can assure you no one would think for one moment that was neutrally written. If I understood what TimeSquares wrote I think it implies a charade, where the paid content was designed to give the appearance it was neutrally written by genuine volunteers, like Matthew and I. <p>So, was your work on Ms Paradas article for a fee? Has all your work on wikialpha been paid work? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:55, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
** Can you explain any further the dispute you and TimesSquares had, six months ago, over whether the article was a copyright violation? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:58, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
(edit conflict)<br />
# Do you know [[User:Ranarian]] and [[User:Albnwunne]] worked for Ms Paradas? [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=User_talk:Geo_Swan&oldid=206778#Delete_potential_copyvio This message] from Ranarian implies the opposite.<br />
# Shouldn't they too explicitly call for the article's deletion for the criteria for speedy deletion to be met?<br />
# Didn't you initially call for the article to be deleted as a copyright violation? Copyright violation can be tricky. If the material was taken from another source, like another wiki, its copying could have been permissible. If your initial concern was correct can the three of you claim to be the sole authors?<br />
# I don't mean to be mean about this, but, in your comments, haven't you repeated, multiple times, that the deletion request is being made in good faith? Well, as I pointed out above, the paragraph above the '''save page''' says you promised ''"you wrote this yourself"''. But didn't you acknowledge you submitted content supplied to you by Ms Paradas - ie not written by you? I don't mean to be mean about this, but, if you submitted content written by someone else, that you said you didn't even actually understand, while implying you were a neutral third party who composed the content yourself - does that measure up to a, well, good faith contribution?<br />
# As I explained, above, wikipedia administrators go through a formal process where the community entrusts them with administrator authority, and entrusts them to exercise that authority to use their judgement to implement the wikipedia's policies. Matthew and I, on the other hand, were rewarded with administrator authority in order to make it easier to do our own work. I don't think we were entrusted to make judgement calls as to what is best for wikialpha in tricky cases. I see this as a tricky case, where you and Ms Paradas really need to wait for Richard to weigh in.<br />
* Richard leases or owns the wikialpha servers, and pays all the bills. I see this decision as up to him. If I leased the servers, and paid the bills, I would decline Ms Paradas's request.<br />
* Wikialpha looks like the wikipedia. Wikialpha articles look like they too were written by good faith volunteers aiming for neutrality. Ms Paradas could have paid web designers, like you, to create a brand new website that didn't look like wikipedia, to host the content she wanted online. Presumably she didn't do that because she wanted the content to look like independently written, third party, neutral material. <p>In order to do so she had to agree to put the material in the public domain. I think this means she has no legal right to try to claw it back.<br />
* You keep repeating that Ms Paradas won't be satisfied until she gets an email from wikialpha promising to delete the article about her, and promising wikialpha will never carry an article about her, in future.<br />
* Well, I read about her enough to decide she, or her firm, may measure up to the wikipedia's GNG. She certainly measures up to the much looser inclusion criteria here. I considered drafting a second version of the article about her, that didn't incorporate any of the existing wording. Should Richard promise that no one should be allowed to draft a second version of an article about Ms Paradas?<br />
* When you tell us what Ms Paradas needs to be satisfied - well, did she use that wording? That wording implies Ms Paradas thinks she has an obligation owed to her. But, by paying you to submit content she approved as if you composed that text with no input from an employer, wasn't she trying to trick both readers and the wikialpha management? So, how could wikialpha have an obligation to her?<br />
* Some newspapers publish '''"advertorials"''' - content that was drafted by advertizers, and published after payment, that gave the appearance of neutrally written journalistic content. If Ms Paradas had paid you to put her content on a brand-new website, that didn't look like wikipedia, she would have both paid you, and paid to lease a website server. She chose to skip paying a website server, so how is it she could think wikialpha had an obligation to her, and not vice versa? <br />
* Someone like Richard could start a website like wikialpha, that used the same underlying software as the wikipedia, but with a revenue model of publishing paid content from people like Ms Paradas, who are prepared to pay for articles that look like neutrally written content drafted by good faith volunteers. <br />
* I see that as a decision that would open a can of worms. What if Ms Paradas read everything here, including your assertions of what wikialpha would be required to do to satisfy jer? What if she wrote an email to Richard, clawed back your assertions, apologized for using wikialpha as a server for paid content she didn't have to pay for, and offered to pay him cash money, I dunno, $1000, to delete the article, now that she no longer wants it? If he agreed would Richard have to worry he was being entrapped into a blackmail charge?<br />
* Most, of the wikialpha content was submitted by volunteers, like Matthew and I. It was thousands of hours of work, thousands of hours of volunteer labour. If our neutrally written content, written for free, was mere window dressing to enhance the illusion that paid content, like the content Ms Paradas paid you to submit, was also neutrally written by volunteers, would it be in our interest to continue to volunteer here? <br />
* Any implied threats Ms Paradas has directed against you? Almost certainly just bluffing you can ignore. You can tell her, ''"Ms Paradas, you paid me to put that content up. I did that, and you paid me. Relationship over."'' Then ignore all future emails and phone calls. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:44, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

Hi Geo Swan. I'm glad to have you aboard and thank for your contributions. I see you have a great deal of good articles userfied over at Wikipedia. I'm fairly certain that they'd be welcome here. Anyhoo, I just wanted to say hi and thanks for contributing. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:17, 6 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
== Articles deleted from Wikipedia ==<br />
<br />
I'm working on your list of articles deleted from Wikipedia. Looks like some have been userfied, so I'm still running through the list trying to figure things out.<br />
<br />
The first 20 have been undeleted and copied over here at WikiAlpha by Moonriddengirl who has been generously helping me. There is a [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10105 list here] showing the progress I'm making. Best regards. [[User:Web|Web]] ([[User talk:Web|talk]]) 15:48, 11 June 2012 (MSD)<br />
<br />
* Thank you very much with your help with this. I anticipate this will be hundreds of hours of work to get these deleted articles into article space here. And I appreciate every bit of assistance. <br />
* Another complication is that in some cases the article on the captive has been replaced by a namesake. [[Charles H. Carpenter]] being a case in point. <br />
* I'll try to get all the userified ones copied here within the next 10 days. For them I can look at the full revision history and form my own judgment as to whether I was the sole author of the intellectual content. When I askedthe closing admin of [[Charles H. Carpenter (lawyer)]] for their help I asked them if they could either also email me a listing of the contributors, or confirm my recollection I was the sole author of its intellectual content. They didn't confirm, orsend me a listing. I am not 100% comfortable, but I went with my recollection.<br />

::I've gone through the list and [http://en.wikialpha.org/wiki?title=WikiAlpha:Sandbox&oldid=10265 updated it here] .It appears about half are already userfied, so I included those links for convenience.

* Someone nominated the [[Danqi Chen]] for speedy deletion. If it is deleted, or any of the other articles is deleted, the version here will still be readable.

== Deleting the old version of the picture. ==<br />
[[File:Creative_style.jpg | thumb | 200px]]<br />
Good afternoon. Can I ask you to delete the old version of the picture?<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/images/archive/8/86/20200302182900%21Creative_style.jpg 11:43, 8 November 2015<br />
<br />
https://en.wikialpha.org/wiki/File:Creative_style.jpg<br />
<br />
* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], you call this ''"the old version"''. Are you arguing it should be replaced by a newer version?<br />
<br />
: This image is in use, in [[Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)]]. [[User:Stella|Stella]] uploaded it, in 2015.<br />
<br />
: I saw your note on [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]]. He and I have been entrusted with administrator authority here, mainly because we have both been very prolific here, and it helps us do our own work. <br />
<br />
: The inclusion rules here are much looser than on the wikipedia. I would delete an image, without consulting the site's owners, if there was a very clear cut reason - like if it seemed like "revenge-porn". This isn't an example. You haven't really offered a reason for deletion. If Mathew or I did delete the image, we would have an obligation to explain to Stella, the uploader, why we did so.<br />
<br />
: FWIW, if you want to link to an image, without it rendering on a page, preface it with a colon, like this, <code><nowiki>[[:File:Creative_style.jpg]]</nowiki></code>. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 16:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />

<br />
::* Yes, I wanted to ask You to delete the old version. I like the new version with flowers, it doesn't need to be deleted. I wanted to delete the 2015 version. The author of the picture asked me to delete the old version, and let the new one remain. If it is not difficult, please delete the old version. <br>[[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::* [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], understanding discussions is best done when everyone observes the usual indentation conventions. I encourage you to learn them.<br />
<br />
:::: Older images are only rarely deleted. Someone would have to take extraordinary efforts to look at the older version. So I think it requires extraordinary reasons to delete. What if Stella returned here, told me she preferred the original version, and asked me why I deleted it - what am I to tell her?<br />
<br />
:::: Over on the wikipedia, images are allowed to be used under "fair use", but only under rare conditions. There are individuals who reduce the resolution of those fair use images. They '''then''' delete the original version. It is the only time I have seen older versions deleted. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 17:36, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::: I was asked to delete by the author himself, I am not the administrator of this wiki encyclopedia. Let the new version remain. Everything else I personally like. The author is currently making new versions of the paintings, so he asked me to delete the old version of the painting... [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::: Thanks for using indentation. It doesn't look like you read the reasons why I declined your earlier requests.

::::::: I didn't think it would be so hard to delete an old version of the picture. I'm not saying that you would completely delete it, I asked you to delete only the old version. Besides, it's not Wikipedia. Ignore it, your right. I gave you the reason for the deletion (request from the author of the picture).<br />
::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]]<br />
<br />
:::::::* Yes, I saw you said the author of the picture requested deletion of the old version. You ignored my reply. Only the most recent version is visible, without a lot of effort.<br />
<br />
:::::::: I googled "Alexander Tatarnikov (diezelsun)". I bet you know what I found. Dozens of other wikis have essentially the same article about him.<br />
<br />
:::::::: [[User:Walte8|Walte8]], did you use [[User:Welux8|Welux8]] to upload that image, back in March? Are you [[User:Stella]]? Did you start some of those dozens of duplicate articles, on the other wikis?<br />
<br />
:::::::: When you refer to what the author wants, are you referring to Tatarnikov? Are you, yourself, Tatarnikov? [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 21:52, 20 September 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::::::::: Who cares who I am? Even if this old version is not removed, I will not be upset. Let there be both a new and an old version. Is that so hard to do? Why do you need the old version? [[User:Walte8|Walte8]] <br />
<br />

* [[User:TimesSquares]], neither you nor [[User:Ranarian]] responded to my questions at [[Talk:Trish Paravas#Please show your work...]]<br />
<br />
: I asked whether any other wikipedians had worked on the article, prior to it being copied here. If anyone else made a meaningfl contribution to its intellectual content then I'd question whether it qualified for speedy deletion under good faith sole author requests deletion.

<br />
: Further, a third person [https://en.wikialpha.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Trisha_Paravas&type=revision&diff=211143&oldid=209386 made close to a dozen edits] to the article's content. When the claim was made that you and Ranarian were the sole authors of the article did you take their contributions into account?

Hi Geo Swan, at the moment, there is nothing about copyright. The full explanation had already been given at Richard's talk page at [[User talk:Richard]]. Here is a letter regarding the [[Trisha Paravas]] page deletion request.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Fashion Week Inc.'s corporate attorney Ms. Erica Doran, has requested that Ms. Trisha Paravas' (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha page to be deleted permanently from public view due to a pending legal matter at New York federal court. In addition, Ms. Doran requests a WikiAlpha administrator to provide a written confirmation that Ms. Paravas' WikiAlpha page has been deleted permanently from public view and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha administrators in the future indefinitely. The reason for the request for permanent deletion of Ms. Trisha Paravas' WikiAlpha page is a legal necessity and requirement. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation. We look forward to receiving a written confirmation from WikiAlpha admins as soon as possible.</blockquote><br />
<br />
The written confirmation can be sent to ericadoran@gmail.com, to trish.paravas@fw-investors.com, or at [[User talk:TimesSquares]].<br />
<br />
This is a polite request to delete the pages [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] due to legal orders. I myself do not intend to harass anyone or post any legal threats and am simply relaying Trisha Paravas's request. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 04:49, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Everything on the pages had always been written with Trisha Paravas's full approval. All WikiAlpha contributors who have worked on the page have all had her full approval. She previously had approved for her page to be published, and is now requesting a page deletion. A simple email from you or any other WikiAlpha administrator stating: '''"Ms. Trisha Paravas's (CEO of Fashion Week Inc.) WikiAlpha.org page has been permanently deleted from public view at WikiAlpha.org, and shall not be restored by any WikiAlpha.org admins in the future indefinitely."''' This statement should suffice, and the matter would be considered resolved provided the content is deleted and confirmed. That is it: a simple deletion and one-sentence confirmation via email to ericadoran@gmail.com, and trish.paravas@fw-investors.com. Thank you very much.

(edit conflict)<br />
<br />
: Lawyers. <br />
<br />
: Lawyers sometimes make ridiculous and unsupportable demands, which can safely be ignored. Over at the wikipedia article subjects don't get to try to control their content. Article subjects who make deletion requests, as a courtesy, get a fair hearing. Neither the wikipedia or wikialpha, or any one else, has an obligation to delete anything written about a public figure, when that material is fair and honest.<br />
<br />
: Over at the wikipedia parties who request courtesy deletion, who seem dishonest, or bluster and bully, have their requests turned down. Individuals who request courtesy, who are significant public figures, have their requests turned down. In general the only people who receive a courtesy deletion are people who are on the cusp, the boundary, of notability.<br />
<br />
: However, wikialpha doesn't have the stringent notability requirements of the wikipedia. So, for a public figure like Ms Paradas, there would be no cusp of notability.<br />
<br />
: So, did Ms Doran write to you? Why you? If they wrote you, why didn't you include a verbatim copy of this letter?<br />
<br />
: Her legal dispute is complicated. Is Fashion Week Inc Ms Paradas's company? Or is it one of the firms she has a dispute with?<br />
<br />
: Have you ever heard of Mattel's Cyber Patrol? If you thought a toy company, like Mattel, would have nice lawyers you would be wrong.<br />
<br />
: In the late 1990s, much earlier in the history of the Internet, Mattel thought "Parents trust us. We could sell them an (expensive) program and tell them it would protect their children from the dangers of the internet." Internally, their product, Cyber Patrol, was a stinking pile of crap. But well marketed. A couple of Computer Science students reverse engineered how it worked, and found it was just a very simple minded blacklist. If a parent ran it one the family computer it tried to block all URLs to news sites. And it tried to block all URLs that looked like they might lead to naughty pictures. But it did so in such a lazy manner, that it blocked a lot of innocent sites. It blocked everything from Carnegie Mellon university, apparently because a woman's bosoms are sometimes referred to as "melons".<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: The two students wrote an academic paper on their work. They published the source code to the program that decrypted cyber patrols blacklist database. (Mattel's programmers used very weak encryption, 19th century encryption.)<br />
<br />
: Mattel's lawyers made an enormous effort to suppress that source code. They sent their customers updated blacklists that blocked all the mirrors that held that source code, and all the sites where problems with cyber patrol were discussed.<br />
<br />
: No, I am not making this up.<br />
<br />
: After a week or two the two students went silent. Mattel's lawyers had convinced them that, since Mattel was a billion dollar company, their lives would be ruined unless they completely buckled. Mattel's lawers apparently demanded that they not only go silent, but sign over all the intellectual property rights to their programs and papers. Mattel's lawyers apparently threatened to bankrupt them and tie them up with years of lawsuits, unless they completely buckled.<br />
<br />
: The laughable part of this story was that they then threatened to sue the people managing the mirror sites. [[Steve Mann]], an early expert in wearable computers, wrote about their threats for his continuing to mirror the source code. They claimed Mattel now owned the source code and Mann was violating Mattel's intellectual property rights by continuing to mirror it. Mann pointed out that, as was the usual practice for sites where programmers offered their source code, the two students had already released most of their intellectual property rights when they put their source code under the GNU license, which is like creative commons.<br />
<br />
: Mann's correspondence with these hyper aggressive yet incompetent lawyers seemed to show they did not understand intellectual property. It sounded like they were angry at the students because they didn't realize that when they agreed to sign over all their intellectual property rights they were signing over a mere rump, because the students had already released significant rights.<br />
<br />
: If I recall Mann's correspondence properly Mattel's lawyers were considering suing the kids into bankruptcy after all.<br />
<br />
: Mattel ended up selling cyber patrol to another firm, at a huge discount, because its value had been blown.<br />
<br />
: Now, if I am not mistaken, everything that was put into the article(s) on Ms Paradas was backed up by meaningful references. If I am not mistaken, it didn't slander anyone. So, Ms Doran has no legal justification to request its deletion.<br />
<br />
: This is all up to Richard, since wikialpha lacks the strict notability criteria of the wikipedia. He could decide keeping the article was going to be just too much trouble. But, if it were up to me, I'd stand on principle and tell Ms Doran her deletion request was going to be declined.<br />
<br />
: Another anecdote. About a decade ago I started an article on guy who was a counter-terrorism expert. He had written a paper on counter-terrorism, which I had cited in another wikipedia article. As I cited it I decided I should learn who he was. At the time he wrote those articles on counter-terrorism he was a public figure. He published. He was a public speaker. He was a panelist at conferences. He was a professor specializing in security and counter-terrorism at, iirc, the Coast Guard Academy.<br />
<br />
: He also remained a part time NCIS agent. Prior to becoming an academic he had a long career as a counter-terrorism expert, who engaged in classified assignments. He had been an interrogator at Guantanamo. People don't know this, but the military interrogators had to share the Guantanamo captives with other agencies, including the CIA. Our guy had been assigned to a joint task force, the Criminal Investigation Task Force.<br />
<br />
: He had earned some kind of highly prestigious award for secret work, which was, itself, classified. Except some of the sources that wrote about it revealed that the award had come with a very substantial cash payment. <br />
<br />
: I had only learned part of this when I put the initial article into article space. I had only spent a half hour or an hour at it. Or, at least I thought I had. <br />
<br />
: But, when I went looking for it, to add more information, I couldn't find it. I wondered whether, as sometimes happens, my session had gone stale, so that when I thought I save it, the article wasn't saved, after all. <br />
<br />
: But that wasn't it. It had been deleted, without the deleting administrator telling me what he had done.<br />
<br />
: He was nice about it. He sat on the OTRS, and the subject of the article had written to him, and requested deletion, because he didn't want to be covered by a wikipedia article. The administrator was clear, the guy hadn't complained about the article being inaccurate, or unfair. He just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: I corresponded with that administrator, half a dozen times, over the next two years, when new RS about the guy emerged. He was very nice about it, but he wasn't going to restore the article.<br />
<br />
: So, I gave up on him, and took it to the wikipedia's deletion review forum. Everyone there agreed that subjects don't get to have their articles deleted just because they don't want to be covered. If the wikipedia allowed that, and news got around, it might then be flooded with hundreds of thousands of requests for deletion from people who just didn't want to be covered.<br />
<br />
: So, the article on my guy was restored. The ironic thing is that when he left the public sector, and became a pure private industry consultant, I think I detected him making edits to the article himself. I didn't out him for lapsing from the conflict of interest policy, under the "don't sweat the small stuff" rule.<br />
<br />
: But, the whole experience reinforced for me the importance of standing firm, and not agreeing to delete neutrally written properly documented articles on public figures.<br />
<br />
: If Ms Doran had a serious justification would she have sought a publication ban from her judge? Is it possible she sought one, and the judge turned that request down?<br />
<br />
: TimesSquares, I am going to return to conflict of interest. If I am not mistaken while there is a conflict of interest policy on the wikipedia, there is no conflict of interest policy here on wikialpha. But I'd be grateful if you an Rararian clarified whether you had a real life tie to Ms Paradas's firm, or a real life tie to her legal opponents. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 06:15, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Hi Geo Swan, [[User:Ranarian]], I, and everyone else who has ever edited Trisha Paravas's WikiAlpha page are completely clueless about Trisha Paravas's situation. All users who had edited [[Trisha Paravas]] and [[Trish Paravas]] are independent contractors who are just hired to copy and paste and format. That is it. I am not in any way officially affiliated with Trisha Paravas or her legal opponents. There is no "real-life" connection other than the fact that she had paid freelance writers to copy and paste and edit content that we do not understand. I do not read and write legalese, and I sincerely do not know what the case is all about. I am just a random freelance web designer hired to publish drafted text Trisha Paravas had provided me. I did not compose any of the text myself. Please contact her and her attorney directly if you have any further questions. A simple deletion would be enough because I sincerely don't know what this is about. Thank you from a completely clueless confused wiki editor. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:29, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:::Again, I am sincerely clueless about the situation. Please completely delete the pages and send a one-sentence email, and Trisha Paravas will consider this matter to be resolved. [[User:TimesSquares|TimesSquares]] ([[User talk:TimesSquares|talk]]) 06:38, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::* You called yourself a freelance writer, and web designer. In addition, I think you are saying that, in this particular case, you were paid to add content you did not yourself write. Is that correct?<br />
<br />
::* Ms Paradas hired you to cut and paste content she provided to you? Hmmm. Couldn't she have just pasted that text in herself? Do you think your admission raises the question of whether she hired freelancers to give the appearance this article was written by volunteers who aimed for neutrality?<br />
<br />
::* So, when it was in her business interest to have an article about herself, that gave the surface appearance of being written by neutral third parties she paid you to do that - and then, when it was in her business interest to have the article deleted she pushed for it to be deleted.<br />
<br />

::* Do you think Ms Paradas can meaningfully claim she owns the intellectual property rights to the text she provided to you, when the '''save page''' button requires agreement that the contribution is being put into the public domain? Do you think it leaves room for her to try to claw it back?<br />
<br />
::* Note the second point. When you clicked '''save page''' weren't you promising you wrote the content yourself? Yet didn't you just acknowledge you were merely pasting in content written by someone else?<br />

; My administratorship<br />
<br />
I am an administrator here. So is Matthew. Matthew has been very prolific here, for a long time. I have been pretty prolific too, for close to a decade. Richard trusted us with administrator bits to make our work here easier. Some wikipedia administrators ignore all rules, and make their own policies in areas where the policies are unclear or not yet set. But I don't think Matthew or I should do that here.<br />
<br />
I will use that administrator authority to delete an item, but only when I am absolutely sure I am being helpful. I deleted an article and a image a week or so ago. But I was absolutely sure they really did meet the speedy deletion criteria.<br />
<br />
I am not sure the article on Ms Paradas meets the speedy deletion criteria. [[User:Geo Swan|Geo Swan]] ([[User talk:Geo Swan|talk]]) 08:10, 10 December 2020 (UTC)<br />

<br />
Let's talk about [[WikiAlpha:Criteria for speedy deletion]] now. Please disregard my comments above and let's start completely again, completely from scratch.<br />
<br />
We are following the procedure for CSD Criterion #3, and nothing else.<br />
<br />
[[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]] had been deleted in good faith due to the following.<br />
<br />
;3. Author requests deletion: If the author of a page or file is the only substantial contributor, they may request that it be deleted if they so wish. Note that this does not apply to user talk pages, which are never deleted, and that these requests are not binding. Add <nowiki>{{Db-requested}}.</nowiki><br />
<br />
We would like to follow the same procedure that [[User:SomeDude]] had followed for [[Azrael Jorithian Djayaprawira]].<br />
<br />
[[User:Ranarian]], [[User:TimesSquares]], and [[User:Albnwunne]] are the only 3 '''substantial contributors''' to the page [[Trisha Paravas]]. All 3 of us would like to unanimously vote to delete it because we so wish, and all 3 of us can sign here indicating our unanimous deletion request. Thank you!

<div>==Images?==<br />
I just tried uploading in image to [[Overdrive (Transformers)]] and it worked. Before I do any more, what sort of licensing is required? Same As Wikipedia? I know you guy don't have the same notability standards, what about non-free image licensing? Same? Stronger or looser requirements? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 17:38, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:The site is under public domain licensing (which means stuff posted has no copyright.) However, if you want to publish images from Wikipedia (i.e. under the CCA Share-alike license) that's fine too, as long as you cite the original source of the image and mention that it's under CCA licensing. Govind is adding a new template to help with this. <nowiki>{{image-cca|http://originalsource}}</nowiki> [[User:Richard|Richard]] 18:03, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:::They are images I uploaded to Wikipedia, but when the articles got deleted, so did the images. If they are no longer on Wikipedia, can they still be shared? I'm not sure how to procede. It might be that the images don't belong on Wikialpha unless they are free.Is licensing like Wikipedia, where they consider all toy images non-free because they are considered "art"? How about a TV series screen capture? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 18:06, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
::::If it's license-free then you can publish it. If it's public domain then you can publish it. If Wikipedia deleted it, then you can publish it. If it's still on Wikipedia then you need to use <nowiki>{{image-cca|http://originalsource}}</nowiki> . If you're not sure where it's from then you can put it up anyway as long as you're reasonably sure it won't cause a copyright issue. TV and movie screenshots are fair-use, since we are a news and encyclopedic publication, and they are being published for educational and/or parody purposes. Any other questions, feel free to ask. Cheers [[User:Richard|Richard]] 18:13, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:::::I'm worried I'd not do it right. If someone loads a screen shot to an article and licenses it, I'll use that as an example. I got in trouble on Wikipedia once for adding images and then using the wrong licensing, and I don't want to be stuck with 20+ images that are licensed wrong. If I wanted to add a screen shot to an existing article, and it's a screen shot I took, what license would I use? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 18:25, 9 July 2011 (MSD) <br />
::::::Ok, I hear you. We'll make a <nowiki>{{image-fairuse|source|explaination}}</nowiki> template and if later there are problems we'll help you fix them :) [[User:Richard|Richard]] 18:40, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:::::::So does the image licensing for [[Black Shadow (Transformers)]] look right? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 18:48, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />

The Wikipedia community isn't responsible for what a loose cannon does, unless, of course, it is. Wikipedia is far more vulnerable than you, in reality. You can set non-open policies, you can use bot reversion, you can easily, being small and close-controlled, outmaneuver these idiots with too much time on their hands and a habit of coercion and threat. Be careful you don't imitate them, though. Choose, and I recommend you choose openly and clearly. And listen, as you did to complaints about the emails. There is more than one way to bell a cat.

Recently user Alicianpig started making article about groups and terms that have no references at all, and I can find no proof they even exist.

==Classic skin error==<br />
The Classic skin seems to have an error. I can't view any pages, and I can't turn it off, because I can't view the pages that changes the skins! I tried creating a new account to edit a page to tell you, but it won't send me a confirmation. I've been told by several people recently that they are not getting confirmation letters from Wikialpha. Maybe that's why you can't get any new users?

Little something neat. I've written so many toy articles on Wikialpha that it's starting to become known for them. I had a Chinese toy company contact me with an email attaching the first pictures of their new toy coming out called "Rhinohorn Aces Version" with them wanting me to write an article about it on Wikialpha!

<br />
Greetings, <br />
Hope you are safe and indoors.<br />

I'm a contributor in WikiAlpha since 2017 and I have been created and edited many articles with sources. Previously, I worked in Wikipedia for over 2 years as a contributor. I know most of process and rules of Wiki.<br />
<br />
I was thinking if it's possible to get another role on WikiAlpha. As for now, I'm only contributor and can't work on the platform properly. I believe my contribution will improve more if I have any other roles rather then only contributor.<br />

<div>==Images?==<br />
I just tried uploading in image to [[Overdrive (Transformers)]] and it worked. Before I do any more, what sort of licensing is required? Same As Wikipedia? I know you guy don't have the same notability standards, what about non-free image licensing? Same? Stronger or looser requirements? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 17:38, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:The site is under public domain licensing (which means stuff posted has no copyright.) However, if you want to publish images from Wikipedia (i.e. under the CCA Share-alike license) that's fine too, as long as you cite the original source of the image and mention that it's under CCA licensing. Govind is adding a new template to help with this. <nowiki>{{image-cca|http://originalsource}}</nowiki> [[User:Richard|Richard]] 18:03, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:::They are images I uploaded to Wikipedia, but when the articles got deleted, so did the images. If they are no longer on Wikipedia, can they still be shared? I'm not sure how to procede. It might be that the images don't belong on Wikialpha unless they are free.Is licensing like Wikipedia, where they consider all toy images non-free because they are considered "art"? How about a TV series screen capture? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 18:06, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
::::If it's license-free then you can publish it. If it's public domain then you can publish it. If Wikipedia deleted it, then you can publish it. If it's still on Wikipedia then you need to use <nowiki>{{image-cca|http://originalsource}}</nowiki> . If you're not sure where it's from then you can put it up anyway as long as you're reasonably sure it won't cause a copyright issue. TV and movie screenshots are fair-use, since we are a news and encyclopedic publication, and they are being published for educational and/or parody purposes. Any other questions, feel free to ask. Cheers [[User:Richard|Richard]] 18:13, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />
:::::I'm worried I'd not do it right. If someone loads a screen shot to an article and licenses it, I'll use that as an example. I got in trouble on Wikipedia once for adding images and then using the wrong licensing, and I don't want to be stuck with 20+ images that are licensed wrong. If I wanted to add a screen shot to an existing article, and it's a screen shot I took, what license would I use? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] 18:25, 9 July 2011 (MSD) <br />
::::::Ok, I hear you. We'll make a <nowiki>{{image-fairuse|source|explaination}}</nowiki> template and if later there are problems we'll help you fix them :) [[User:Richard|Richard]] 18:40, 9 July 2011 (MSD)<br />

::If I may chime in, the informative email from WikiAlpha allowed me to know the page I wrote was being copied to their site, and I found that information helpful. I don't think it's "spam" to inform someone via their public email link that you are doing something with a page they wrote. That's just using thier email link for the purpose it's intended.

How is it false information?

The Wikipedia community isn't responsible for what a loose cannon does, unless, of course, it is. Wikipedia is far more vulnerable than you, in reality. You can set non-open policies, you can use bot reversion, you can easily, being small and close-controlled, outmaneuver these idiots with too much time on their hands and a habit of coercion and threat. Be careful you don't imitate them, though. Choose, and I recommend you choose openly and clearly. And listen, as you did to complaints about the emails. There is more than one way to bell a cat.

==Question, do we need some proof term exists at all?==<br />
Recently user Alicianpig started making article about groups and terms that have no references at all, and I can find no proof they even exist. I know we are not Wikipedia in requiring notability, but do terms need some kind of proof? Anyways, since the pages have no references or Categories, maybe we can at least suggest they get some?[[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 17:47, 26 August 2011 (MSD)<br />
:Unsourced material may be freely challenged and if it is a blatant hoax then tag it for speedy deletion. I'd recommend Googling around to see if the term exists first, and if not, delete it. [[User:Govind|Govind]] ([[User talk:Govind|talk]]) 21:51, 26 August 2011 (MSD)<br />

==Classic skin error==<br />
The Classic skin seems to have an error. I can't view any pages, and I can't turn it off, because I can't view the pages that changes the skins! I tried creating a new account to edit a page to tell you, but it won't send me a confirmation. I've been told by several people recently that they are not getting confirmation letters from Wikialpha. Maybe that's why you can't get any new users? Anyways, can you fix the skin, or change it for me? Thanks [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 13:36, 12 April 2013 (UTC)<br />
:Additional - I managed to turn off my Classic skin setting by putting a skin override command in the URL of the preference page. Still, you have 2 problems. Anyone using the Classic Skin gets locked out of viewing pages, and no one seems to be getting confirmation emails. I tried to just email you at richard@wikialpha,org, and that email doesn't work. Is there a support email for wikialpha? [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 13:39, 12 April 2013 (UTC)<br />
::Fixed. Sorry, it was a mistake I made while trying to set up Google Ads. [[User:Govind|Govind]] ([[User talk:Govind|talk]]) 23:48, 12 April 2013 (UTC)<br />
::Also, I've tried registering a test account and it works, including email confirmation. [[User:Govind|Govind]] ([[User talk:Govind|talk]]) 23:58, 12 April 2013 (UTC)<br />

==Wikialpha is getting famous in the toy world==<br />
Little something neat. I've written so many toy articles on Wikialpha that it's starting to become known for them. I had a Chinese toy company contact me with an email attaching the first pictures of their new toy coming out called "Rhinohorn Aces Version" with them wanting me to write an article about it on Wikialpha! So I wrote the article, and linked it to collector sites.. and it's making the news section. http://www.fullmetalhero.com/content/keith-s-fantasy-club-rhinohorn-aces-version-6277/ [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 16:50, 17 April 2013 (UTC)<br />

==Robot invasion==<br />
The last 2-3, this site has been invaded by spam inserting robots. Has the security against robots joining been removed since the wiki was updated? They are literally adding nonsense articles with spam limbs at a rate of more than one a minute! [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 01:04, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
::Fuming at Govind at the moment. I forwarded him your email as I was taking a few days rest from work and he didn't fix this. I've fixed it now. I'll have to figure out some way to remove all the spam pages/users. [[User:Richard|Richard]] ([[User talk:Richard|talk]]) 16:54, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::Sorry, I tried, but all I could do is watch. They were making new pages faster than I could deleted and block them individually. Can you block any new user who joined in the last 72 hours, and delete any pages created by them?[[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 17:06, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::Not your fault at all. Recaptcha plugin was replaced with ConfirmEdit and it was not clear that the new plugin needed additional configuration when I did the changeover. There were a lot of edits by spam bots and I mean a lot. They made 12,000 user accounts. I'm trying to clean it up now. [[User:Richard|Richard]] ([[User talk:Richard|talk]]) 17:14, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::::Update on this. I'm merging all the spam users into a single user via a script. However the process is CPU intensive so it will take a while. (Approximately 12 hours by my calculation.) Once they are all a single user I can nuke an perm delete their edits quite easily. [[User:Richard|Richard]] ([[User talk:Richard|talk]]) 18:14, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::::Sounds like a plan, I will stop individually deleting their work then. [[User:Mathewignash|Mathewignash]] ([[User talk:Mathewignash|talk]]) 18:17, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
:::::::Yep don't worry about spam unless they start joining/getting through again in which case let me know ASAP. This will all be completely cleaned up by the end of tomorrow. Cheers [[User:Richard|Richard]] ([[User talk:Richard|talk]]) 18:26, 30 January 2016 (UTC)<br />
::::::::So I've re-added our second, custom signup challenge to the signup page and finished merging and deleting the spam accounts and pages. I also fixed the front page listing although its not quite as good as it used to be. Let me know if anything else needs fixing. Cheers [[User:Richard|Richard]] ([[User talk:Richard|talk]]) 13:17, 31 January 2016 (UTC)<br />

== Request to be admin/patroller/ rollback/page reviewer or any ==<br />
<br />
Greetings, <br />
Hope you are safe and indoors.<br />
<br />
I'm a contributor in WikiAlpha since 2017 and I have been created and edited many articles with sources. Previously, I worked in Wikipedia for over 2 years as a contributor. I know most of process and rules of Wiki.<br />
<br />
I was thinking if it's possible to get another role on WikiAlpha. As for now, I'm only contributor and can't work on the platform properly. I believe my contribution will improve more if I have any other roles rather then only contributor.<br />
<br />
Here is summery of edits made by me: [[http://wikialpha.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/Foos Here]]<br />

'''Trisha Paravas''' is an American fashion executive, entrepreneur, and CEO based in New York City, United States. She is best known as the founder of Fashion Week Inc.<br />
<br />
As an adolescent, Paravas created her first entrepreneurial startup by developing a textile company, which she successfully exited by selling to a major competitor. Subsequently, Paravas, on full scholarship, acquired an MBA in business and marketing. After graduation, Paravas, worked in the financial industry on Wall Street in numerous management roles for over a decade, specializing in various financial products, with focus on the Dodd-Frank Act and U. S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) violations. <br />
<br />
==Career==<br />
In 2013, Trisha Paravas founded Fashion Week Inc. in New York to produce fashion shows after realizing the current state of fashion shows during fashion week in New York were invitation-only, and designed solely for industry professionals and media with no access to consumers. According to Paravas, Fashion Week Inc. is in the business of “extending the exclusive runway show access to the consumers, building connections between fashion designers and clientele.”<br />
<br />
Fashion Week Inc. hosts bi-annual February and September consumer fashion shows with the first of these shows having launched in 2012. Initially, these shows were produced and marketed during December and Summer as part of market test. Following the success of the first slate of shows, Paravas realized she had a hit concept on her hands. Noting the increasing interest in them by consumers, fashion designers, and sponsors, the savvy business executive marketed the shows to notable fashion designers, sponsors, and created a niche market in the consumer fashion shows arena in New York capitalizing on the strong market demand and high yield segment. Among Fashion Week Inc.’s notable sponsors are J.P. Morgan Chase, Ritz-Carlton, and Dr. Pepper.<br />
<br />
Fashion Week Inc. produces fashion shows where fashion designers display their latest collections for the season during fashion week in New York. Fashion Week Inc.’s shows are consumer shows only, and offer tickets to runway fashion shows where fashion designers display ready-to-wear Fall/Winter and Spring/Summer collections. Consumers can readily purchase the new collections from fashion designers directly. In addition, Fashion Week Inc. provides an exclusive opportunity to meet the fashion designers. Each runway show features a new set of designers, ensuring all of its runway fashion shows are one of a kind.<br />

==Early Life and Education==<br />
Born in Bolton, in 1985, he grew up in a working-class family and was a first-generation University student. He has spoken candidly in the past about the challenges he faced with his mental health during his time at university, which led to him failing and being taken home. Despite this, he returned to finish his studies and graduate in International Business Psychology at Manchester Metropolitan University.<ref name="psychreg" /><ref name="essentialise" /> He holds a Master's in Environmental Psychology from the University of Surrey.<ref name=urbanistamagazine>{{cite web|url=https://urbanistamagazine.uk/interview-with-lee-chambers-environmental-psychologist-and-lancashires-wellbeing-champion/|title=Interview With Lee Chambers, Environmental Psychologist And Lancashire’s Wellbeing Champion|publisher=urbanistamagazine.uk|accessdate=14 August 2020}}</ref><br />
==Career==<br />
Upon graduation in 2007, he starting working for the Co-operative Bank as a Financial Advisor. Due to the economic crash in 2008, he was made redundant. In 2008, he founded a video game company PhenomGames, which he recently sold<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.explosion.com/136290/lee-chambers-moves-out-of-the-video-game-industry-with-sale-of-phenomgames/|title=Lee Chambers Moves Out of the Video Game Industry with Sale of PhenomGames|publisher=explosion.com|accessdate=14 August 2020}}</ref><ref name="essentialise" />. In 2019, he launched Essentialise, a workplace Wellbeing company based in Ribbleton Lane.<br />
Lee has also worked within local government, with world-class athlete's, and within the charity sector. He has continued with his education, earning additional qualifications in Nutrition and Sleep. Using his knowledge, he created his own life coaching framework, known as the DECIDE model<br />
He set up Covid-19 Counsellors to provide phone and video support sessions to NHS staff across the country. As part of this initiative, Lee coaches an NHS frontline staff member weekly for free.

He is a regular contributor to Yahoo, Metro and Psychreg on subjects such as organisational wellbeing, positive psychology and conscious leadership.<br />
Given all that he has achieved in his relatively short life so far, possibly the most inspiring element is that in 2014 he lost the ability to walk due to chronic illness and battled back to learn again.<ref name="psychreg" /><ref>{{cite web|url=https://uspire.life/2020/06/10/autoimmune-disease-lee-chambers-wellbeing-expert/|title=MIRACLE MAN WHO LOST ABILITY TO WALK LEARNS TO AGAIN WITH UNIQUE APPROACH TO RECOVERY|publisher=uspire.life|accessdate=14 August 2020}}</ref><ref name="urbanistamagazine" /> Now he coaches disability football teams as a way to give back to society.
