The external link "Sergeant Stubby. The war dog of WW1" (Video). Youtube. July 11, 2014. Retrieved July 13, 2015. you removed here appears to be a reading of the Wikipedia article. I don't know if it is properly attributed to Wikipedia, but I do wonder about your claim that it is a copyright violation. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 18:22, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- The audio might be a reading of a version of the article but the video looks very much like it breaches some news channels copyright by using their background and inset newsreader, go right to the end and watch a copyright come up on the bottom left of the screen. WP:YOUTUBE is quite clear about being careful when linking, so without explicit evidence that it's PD or CC I took the link out. Nthep (talk) 18:42, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- Thanks for the clarification. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 20:23, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
- I'm only suspicious there is a possible copyvio, it might be legit but I think this is a bit of spamming - if not why not just make a recording of the article and upload that? Nthep (talk) 21:40, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Hi, Nthep,
I see in my CSD log (User:Liz/CSD log), I gave this article a CSD G13 on 8 July 2015. My question is not that the page wasn't deleted (which is an admin's call, after all), it's that I don't see my edit in the page history. Until your edit on 10 July, there weren't any edits in the page history since September 2014.
Was my edit deleted from the history? I see from the page stats that some editor (probably me) looked at this draft around 8 July and I don't know why my edit would be removed. I care because I like to check my CSD log and see if a page wasn't deleted, what was the reason so I can improve my skills. So, it's puzzling to remember tagging this article but not seeing my edit in the history. Do you remember whether it was tagged for a G13 deletion when you edited it a few days ago? Thanks for any information you can provide. Liz Read! Talk! 18:37, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Liz: You did edit it on 8 July to tag for G13 deletion. I'd restored it the day before at the request of the only author via an OTRS ticket but they then dallied and didn't edit it before you'd tagged it for G13 again and it had been deleted. When I restored it for a second time I didn't bother to restore the two edits that were the G13 tags. Nthep (talk) 20:29, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- This is very interesting, thanks for explaining it to me, Nthep. I didn't see any indication that the draft had been deleted and restored, is that indicated anywhere in the page information? I also didn't know that when an admin restores an article, they can choose which edits to include or exclude.
- There has been one other time where I could swear I edited an article talk page and participated in a discussion (it was a very contested article) but when I went back to look at the archived talk pages, no edits of mine show up! I still find it baffling but this provides me with one explanation of what might have happened there.
- Thank you again for indulging me with an explanation. Liz Read! Talk! 21:09, 14 July 2015 (UTC)
- Liz, my pleasure. You can always check the public logs for a page from it's page history (on most skins it's a link at the top of the page) and see deletions and restorations. What the log won't tell you is how much has been restored and it is an admin privilege to be able to only restore certain versions of a page. Nthep (talk) 21:17, 14 July 2015 (UTC)

Verifying OTRS
Hey Nthep, in reference to your comment here, how do non-admin editors actually verify that something has been verified by OTRS? While we don't need to see the actual evidence (like a driver's license), it would be nice to have an official statement that can be referenced along the lines of "OTRS sez this is the TRUTH!" SQGibbon (talk) 16:43, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
- I didn't add the comment as an admin but as an OTRS volunteer, so with that hat on you'll have to take it that as "OTRS sez this is the truth". I can't disclose what evidence other than to say it suffices, even other admins can't verify it unless they also work OTRS. Nthep (talk) 16:47, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
- This seems like a problem, no? While we don't need to see the actual evidence itself it would be nice to have a link to a page that only OTRS can edit which states, like in this instance, "Patrick W.'s birthdate has been verified by OTRS as x". SQGibbon (talk) 21:36, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
- But that's what my statement on the talk page does with a link to the ticket. If you doubt this or any statement relating to information supplied via OTRS then you can always ask at Wikipedia:OTRS noticeboard for another OTRS volunteer to confirm the information contained in the ticket. Apart from that you just have to take it on trust that information posted by anyone identified as an OTRS volunteer (checkable via m:OTRS/Users) is an accurate summary of an OTRS discussion. Nthep (talk) 21:55, 16 July 2015 (UTC)
- Sorry for belaboring the point but in all my years of editing Wikipedia I've never really had to deal with OTRS and now the process seems a bit of a mystery to me so thanks for clearing up these details for me. When I click on the link for the OTRS ticket I'm unable to get past a log-in for OTRS folk so I am unable to verify that there is any such ticket in existence. Is that how it's supposed to work? As for posting at the OTRS noticeboard that's a decent enough compromise but still doesn't feel like like it's in line with the verifiability principle on Wikipedia. While I see no reason not to trust OTRS folk it's kind of weird that we have a claim that comes down to "trust us" where that sort of thing doesn't fly in any other situation on Wikipedia. SQGibbon (talk) 22:13, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
- @SQGibbon:, sorry for the delay in replying. I understand where you are coming from. There are two things you want to know; the information and how it is verified. The first is easy, the second is a bit like any other source that isn't online - you have to accept it unless you have access to the source material. This verification by OTRS is fairly uncommon and it really only ever occurs when it involves personal information (especially in relation to BLP subjects) where to reveal the information used would breach privacy. All the OTRS volunteers are experienced Wikipedia editors as well so while it might not be as open as you might like, the answer is it is as good as it can get while respecting the confidential nature of the subjects.

Go on why you deleting my question for? Answer it

Al Nahyan family
Then which talk page should he be on considering he is a part of the A Nahyan family? And any member of the Al Nahyan family is considered to be royal person due to the background of the family? So how about you add it on the correct list which clearly indicates the family. This is his role and background , Sheikh Umar Shahab Butt bin Zayed Al Nahyan — One of the many Prince of Abu Dhabi and prominent young businessman. Member of The Ruling Family. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jameyboy12 (talk • contribs) 21:33, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
- We're not adding anything until you provide a source, that we can verify by going to the exact page you cite, showing that this person is what you say he is. We CANNOT just take your word for it. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:41, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
- @Jameyboy12: Names and articles don't get included in Wikipedia just because they exist. They are added because they are notable and this information can be verified by information in reliable sources. As there seems to be zero information avaialble about this person that you and several others keeps insisting on adding to this article and others. Provide some specific sources and establish that he is notable then the problem is solved. But all I have seen is unverified rubbish that contradicts itself and a complete refusal to provide a single shred of evidence about him. If he is as prominent as you say this shouldn't be hard but you assertion that he is prominent flies against what you wrote in the edit summary before - "He is not internationally known due to his age" so which is it? Nthep (talk) 21:46, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
If you don't live in Abu Dhabi it's not my fault! How about you come to Abu Dhabi and see for yourself! Absolutely unhappy with your reasons for removal! Does not make sense. If you don't live in Abu Dhabi then ask residents of Abu Dhabi and find out for yourself! I've emailed Wikipedia even they said they don't know why you are are doing this unnecessary removal! So as advised by Wiki I am now adding it again! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hollomanshanks (talk • contribs) 22:00, 20 July 2015 (UTC)
- Read the answer above, the same applies. And it is down to you to provide the evidence that the person you are talking about is notable and that sources exist to support this. This is standard Wikipedia policy - see WP:BURDEN. Nthep (talk) 22:20, 20 July 2015 (UTC)

Article Johan Matton
Dear Nthep, Can you please have a look at the article Johan Matton and patrol it if you agree that it is an article to keep? It seems notable to me and the Subject has had several recognition at festivals and major media attention through a TV interview and Swedish news papers, see full TV interview here: http://www.kens5.com/story/entertainment/2015/07/31/till-we-meet-again/30936177/ Thank you kindly for taking time to read through the article, it seems to me that Users in general do not take time to write KEPP comments on articles.

OTRS help
Hi Nthep. Not sure if you remember me from a while back? You helped me out with the OTRS/Commons process from Flickr users who are willing to donate an image to Wiki under Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0. I was wondering if you could help me out again, as another Flickr user has contacted me regarding a donation of an image of Iggy Azalea. I was hoping I could forward the the e-mail they sent me to you and you could take it from there? Please let me know! CoolMarc 03:06, 8 September 2015 (UTC)

Undeletion Request - File:Yoshi's Island - Gameplay.png
The image is a Super Nintendo screenshot. It is incapable of high-resolution output. That the original image was at 512 × 448 is because it was artificially enlarged in the emulator I was playing on, in actual fact - the resolution is 256 × 224. Resizing it to 338 × 295 has only distorted the image. - hahnchen 15:45, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
- Those three sizes all give aspect ratios of 1.142 give or take so I'm not sure how the current image is distorted. Also restoring the larger image will just result in the bot reducing it again - there is no auto-exclusion process. If you think it is distorted then uploading the original image at its native resolution is going to give the best result. Nthep (talk) 16:03, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
- 512 × 448 is exactly four times 256 × 224. The pixel widths within the image are perfectly preserved. Yes, I'm aware that a bot could reduce it again, I've previously asked to re-examine the image resizing aspect of Theo's Little Bot, but no one seems to care. - hahnchen 16:24, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
- Then uploading at the native resolution of 256 x 224 seems to solve the problem. Nthep (talk) 16:31, 24 September 2015 (UTC)
- I originally uploaded it in 2012, I no longer have the source image. - hahnchen 18:42, 24 September 2015 (UTC)

- Thanks for the link, I'm going to be watching that series with interest. Nthep (talk) 20:31, 10 October 2015 (UTC)
Nthep, can you recover one of previous revisions? Someone replaced it, and I was oblivious about it. --George Ho (talk) 03:47, 11 October 2015 (UTC)

Mobilelink cricket
Hi,
You deleted Mobilelink cricket as spam. I came across Mobilelink usa which has also been tagged for spam. I was checking if there is a copyvio and it appears that the usa version of the article may be the same as the cricket version. Can you check? There may be some sockpuppetry going on or similar shenanigans. Thanks. -- Whpq (talk) 19:52, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
- The two articles were identical, obviously one was a cut and paste of the other. The socking looks to be after I blocked the first account. As both accounts are now blocked for spamming I'm not sure and SPI is needed unless you want to create one to record the evidence. Nthep (talk) 20:04, 14 October 2015 (UTC)
- I don't want to cause extra admin work if there isn't going to be a recurrence. It has the smell of an SEO company at work, so if it does reappear, it can be dealt with then. Thanks. -- Whpq (talk) 01:34, 15 October 2015 (UTC)

Hi, I'm puzzled by this edit. You don't seem to have removed any parameters from refs; rather, you seem to have reverted the three edits made two days ago by Keith D (talk · contribs). --Redrose64 (talk) 13:43, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
- No idea what happened there. There was CS1 error due to the use of
|language=
in the cite and the intention was to remove that. Nthep (talk) 14:10, 15 October 2015 (UTC) - Think I've fixed the disappearing bits. Nthep (talk) 14:17, 15 October 2015 (UTC)
