Universal Ai University

Hi@Russ Woodroofe got your undo on the article Universal Ai University - trim top 125 ranking from Times of India: yellow source according to WP:RSP, known to accept payment for positive coverage.

Thanks for going through the article and removing the additions for ranking, however https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/indias-growth-champions-2023-ranks-nations-fastest-growing-companies/articleshow/98454662.cms citation is not from TOI,its from Economics Time and the ranking was in collaboration with Statista and not doesn't seem to be a paid coverage. Kindly see and undo it if you find it authentic.

Happy Editing ! MSatindia (talk) 08:51, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

MSatindia, I believe the consensus on ToI applies also to its sister publication, the Economic Times. I am skeptical that this rather random ranking from a low-reliability publication is due to include in the article. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 13:46, 11 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Invitation

Hello Russ Woodroofe, we need experienced volunteers.
  • New Page Patrol is currently struggling to keep up with the influx of new articles. We could use a few extra hands on deck if you think you can help.
  • Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.
  • Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, it basically boils down to checking CSD, notability, and title). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us.
  • If you would like to join the project and help out, please see the granting conditions. You can apply for the user-right HERE.
  • If you have questions, please feel free to drop a message at the reviewer's discussion board.
  • Cheers, and hope to see you around.

These things can take time

Thanks for your efforts in the Tosca-discussion. I'm reminded on the extensive discussions that predated this section:Tom_Willett#Legal_issues, that issue was discussed in several Youtube videos, at least one of which had over a million views. Many new people turned up on the talkpage, and people like me kept saying no, no, no. Funnily enough, the usable source was first "discovered" on Wikipediocracy. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 17:48, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gråbergs Gråa Sång, thank you for the kind words! And thank you even more for your part in building a consensus at the Mika Tosca article. Working at the intersection of two contentious topics is certainly a bit tricky. Patience is certainly a helpful virtue in general on Wikipedia, although I am hoping to edit in calmer waters for the next while. :-) Russ Woodroofe (talk) 20:42, 14 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

please include this information as part of Justin Paul (scholar)

This profile is written by the subject person

Grzegorz Mazurek please read carefully and you will see in Para 3 that he wrote - " Since 2018, I have been a member of the EFMD Advisory Board for the Central and Eastern European region."

Shame for wikipedia to list this, without reading....I suspect that entire profile is written by him. Mashteacher (talk) 23:40, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:WHATABOUTX? That article is not in great shape. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 00:00, 11 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Could you help with - adding this sentence / info on Justin Paul's (scholar) profile

can you add this sentence with the citations below -

During 2018-19, Dr Paul served as a faculty member with the Rollins College, Orlando- Florida, in the United States. He moved to Florida due to the serious problems caused by Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico in 2017. Citation 1: https://www.rollins.edu/provost/documents/Faculty%20list%202018-2019.pdf

citation 2 https://go.activecalendar.com/rollins/event/dr-justin-paul-emergence-of-india-and-china-in-the-global-market/ citation 3 https://www.thesandspur.org/visiting-professor-wins-international-business-award Jimsocial (talk) 14:40, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Moving also to Talk:Justin Paul (scholar), and responding there. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 16:40, 13 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just noticed the picture

[2] That is so cool! Thanks to you and @Katja Berčič! And if you walk by again, you can ask him to change the "The last heir of silvesmithing" typo on his website [3]. It's one of the left/right scrollable headings a bit down on the page, to the right of the pic with the raven. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 07:04, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Btw, you may want to consider Help:Archiving (plain and simple). Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 10:06, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Gråbergs Gråa Sång, thanks for reminding me about archiving! It took me a little bit to get time work through, but I've done it. (Let me know if you see something obviously wrong :-) ) Russ Woodroofe (talk) 14:23, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I know from experience that the bot can take 24h or more to show up. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 14:35, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jeff Sebo

'The ethicist tag is not incompatible with other tags -- the tag means it is a main part of his work, not the only part.' If the 'tag' is 'not incompatible', why you are removing it? Ethics is the 'main part' of Sebo's work. As I understand Jevansen's edit, Sebo doesn't belong in BOTH the 'ethicist' category and the 'bioethicist' category. That's of course silly; Sebo might be a bioethicist, but he's not only a bioethicist. But I'm afraid I'm at a loss to understand your edit. Could you please self-revert, or explain what I have missed? Josh Milburn (talk) 06:53, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@J Milburn: Sorry! Self-reverted. I was editing perhaps a little too late at night, and thought you were removing the tag instead of adding. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 07:15, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Russ Woodroofe: No problem; thanks for the quick response! Josh Milburn (talk) 07:49, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@J Milburn: only, as I look more closely, the "American bioethicist" category is a subcategory of "American ethicist". Except for exceptions of nondiffusing categories (such as "American women xoccupation"), we're not supposed to have members of a subcategory that are also members of the parent category. Do you think he belongs more correctly in the broader parent category then? See WP:CAT for the rules, which are slightly arcane. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 08:20, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If it must be just one, 'ethicist' would, I think, be neater. I suppose I'm not really sold on that kind of hierarchy; lots of ethicists will work across several areas (or, to go a step higher, lots of philosophers will work across several areas). But that's a broader conversation. Josh Milburn (talk) 08:29, 8 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
