Foster Cummings
Why would you remove prolifically documented allegations of corruption from his page? There are many newspaper articles corroborating these allegations which are supported by extensive documentation. He may not have been prosecuted for his financial crimes, but neither have many ruling tyrants of the world who repress their judiciaries - neither should he nor should other tyrants be above criticism on wikipedia.

- Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a free speech forum for the airing of grievances or the righting of perceived wrongs. Please see WP:RGW first of all, and then please join the discussion on the article's talk page. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 19:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
- It is a fact that Foster Cummings uses his political influence to procure lucrative government contracts for his personal businesses, and while he is able to use his influence to evade prosecution, his misconduct has been documented by our 57 year old newspaper, The Trinidad Express, which I cited, among other national newspapers. Which do you take issue with, my source or the allegations? Websurfer868 (talk) 20:22, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
- I am not going to respond about this here. See the discussion on the article's talk page. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:23, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Administrators' newsletter – August 2023
News and updates for administrators from the past month (July 2023).
- Firefangledfeathers
-
- AlisonW
- Amberrock
- Closedmouth
- Scottywong
Interface administrator changes
- The tag filter on Special:NewPages and revision history pages can now be inverted. This allows hiding edits made by automated tools. (T334338)
- Special:BlockedExternalDomains is a new tool that allows easier blocking of plain domains (and their subdomains). This is more easily searchable and is faster for the software to use than the existing MediaWiki:Spam-blacklist. It does not support regex (for complex cases), URL path-matching, or the MediaWiki:Spam-whitelist. (T337431)
- The arbitration cases named Scottywong and AlisonW closed 10 July and 16 July respectively.
- The SmallCat dispute arbitration case is in the workshop phase.
Hi @Ivanvector. Your message to me in your edit feels quite bitey. Personally, I do not see any clear claim of significance. The article outlines her early life moving to Germany from Kenya, and then has some rather promotional-sounding wording about her "versatile skills" and "loyal following of fans who are drawn to her infectious energy and fierce spirit". Hmm, very encyclopediatic. To me this article clearly fails WP:GNG and WP:SINGER. Yours, Osarius 13:47, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
- Apologies for my tone, but the speedy tag had been removed in good faith by an editor who was not the creator, and a valid CSD tag removal should not be restored (per the policy). The claim of significance is this: "standard magazine Kenya named her as one of the top female artists to look out for in the year 2024". That is a credible claim of significance; it does not have to be a statement that demonstrates notability, it only has to assert significance. Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 13:53, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Your draft article, Draft:St. Joseph's Health Care London
Hello, Ivanvector. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "St. Joseph's Health Care London".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 19:59, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
- Thanks Liz. It's been on my mind to continue with this but haven't had time. I'll restore it myself when I have more time, if that's alright with you? Ivanvector (Talk/Edits) 20:09, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
Deleted pages
Hello, Ivanvector,
You asked in Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bayanni (2nd nomination) if there was a way to search for deleted pages and the only way I know is to use Special:Undelete. Of course, you have to have the name of the article of draft you are looking for or know some variations of it. But it is a resource that is available for editors to use. Liz Read! Talk! 20:38, 11 August 2023 (UTC)
Hello! Please delete the Controversy section from the Kristin Harila page. Regards Szelma W (talk) 12:58, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
