Murillo de Aragão
Dear Bastun,
Greetings! Thank you for your review on my bio article about Murillo de Aragão. I am trying to locate the draft version of it so I can make the changes you suggested, but I am not managing to find it.
Could you help me, please? Bruno Furtado Vieira (talk) 18:38, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
:Hi {{u|Bruno Furtado Vieira}}, you'll find the draft at Draft:Murillo de Aragão. Regards, BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 18:46, 6 January 2025 (UTC)
:Dear Bastun, greetings once again!
:I tried to comply with your suggestions, but I am not sure if I managed. Please let me know how I can improve. Since I am new here, if you can lay out the details of how to fix the erros I would be very grateful. Bruno Furtado Vieira (talk) 20:00, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Dallas Pro Volleyball vs Kansas City Pro Volleyball
Hello,
You recently placed Draft:Dallas Pro Volleyball into the draftspace. Comparing it with the Kansas City Pro Volleyball page I see no difference. Both have local references, both start off in the same year. Shouldn't KC also be in the draftspace of both in the mainspace of Wikipedia? Explain the difference to me...Roberto221 (talk) 19:57, 10 January 2025 (UTC)
:Hi, {{u|Roberto221}}. I draftified Dallas Pro Volleyball as it appeared on my New Pages Feed, required review, and met the criteria for moving to draft, as set out in the notice. Kansas City Pro Volleyball, on the other hand, was created in February 2024, and can't be draftified. It also fails to meet WP:NSPORTS, so can be nominated for deletion, or draftifying could be suggested as an alternative to deletion. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 17:37, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
Malskinsfjørður
May I ask why you tagged this page, Malskinsfjørður as reviewed? Seems to be a hoax. Fram (talk) 14:27, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
:Hi, {{u|Fram}}, it's been deleted so I can't see it now. IIRC, it was referenced? I didn't check all the references but nothing struck me as out of place at the time. I'll try to be more diligent future. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 17:19, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
::It had one ref which didn't mention the place (logical, as it doesn't exist). No problem, shit happens. Fram (talk) 17:23, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
:::I see that editor had also added related hoax material to List of airports by ICAO code, caught by {{u|Guliolopez}}. BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 17:35, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
::::And created another hoax, also deleted. If they resume similar editing in the future, they will get blocked (not by me obviously). Fram (talk) 17:43, 14 January 2025 (UTC)
Improper page tagging?
How are you Bastun? Please don't tag articles with improper tags as you did to The Arrangements (short story), and others. I provided sources for many of them, and tagging with "notability" makes me worry whether you did a BEFORE before tagging, and so, you should have done, be it you are taking it [the articles] to AFD. Cheers. Safari ScribeEdits! Talk! 12:38, 23 January 2025 (UTC)
:I don't believe any of the tags were improper? You must provide sources for all of them, and single sources for stub articles (as some had) is questionable. Re notability - please see WP:GNG and WP:NBOOK. Is there any significant, lasting coverage of any of these short stories? It may have served better to include a section in the author's own article or on her bibliogrpahy article on her short stories, rather than one-sentence stub articles that may very well be deleted. Additionally, you should note that notability is not inherited - yes, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is notable; not all of her stories are necessarily notable. As a new page patroller yourself, you should know this. Please also see WP:PAGEDECIDE. Regards, BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 13:23, 23 January 2025 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: [[Harsh Patel]]
Hi there, and thank you for your work with NPP! I want to let you know that I declined your G4 speedy deletion nomination of Harsh Patel. G4 only {{tq|applies to sufficiently identical copies}} of previously-deleted articles. Although you cannot see the previously deleted version, one of the things to look out for is the date of the late deletion and compare that with the information provided in the article. In this case, the AfD was in September 2015, and the new article included many sources published since then, indicating that the new article is sufficiently different. Therefore, the article isn't eligible for G4. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions, comments, and/or concerns on the matter. Take care, Significa liberdade (she/her) (talk) 04:30, 26 February 2025 (UTC)
:Good spot, {{u|Significa liberdade}} - I'll watch out for things like that in future. Thanks, BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 23:06, 26 February 2025 (UTC)r

May 2025 Revert O Comain
I see you've just now reverted my page edit to the page I created at O Comain.
As you know, on the Talk page I posted earlier in the week explaining my intention and reasoning for refreshing the page with the Clan O Comain recognition, and to please post objections.
Your response "My advice, if you do proceed, would be to go slowly, use accurate edit summaries, and absolutely excellent sourcing."
The page edit I created has proceeded exactly as that. However, on reviewing your response again, you mention that you believe Irish clans should be on a Wordpress site and not represented on Wikipedia.
You are violating:
- Tone and Civility (WP:CIVIL) terms like "bolloxology" and the dismissive recommendation to use a Wordpress site
- Bias and NPOV (WP:NPOV) – Your comments reflect a clear bias against the inclusion of Irish clans on Wikipedia, despite their historical and cultural significance. Dismissing the relevance of Clans of Ireland without counter-evidence violates the core principle of neutrality.
- Assumption of Bad Faith (WP:AGF) – You assumed, without basis, that my intention was to promote unsourced or inappropriate content. In fact, my edits were based on verifiable information and clearly stated sources, as noted in the Talk page discussion.
- Ownership of Articles (WP:OWN) – It appears you have taken ownership of the article, reverting changes without reasonable cause or collaborative discussion. Wikipedia is a shared platform, and unilateral control over content is not acceptable.
- Reversion without Dialogue (WP:BRD) – You reverted the page without a meaningful attempt to discuss your concerns or engage in the collaborative process that Wikipedia relies upon.
I kindly request that you reconsider your approach to this matter, and if you have specific, fact-based concerns, I am more than willing to address them in good faith. Waiting for your reponse. Kellycrak88 (talk) 18:17, 18 May 2025 (UTC)

Articles for Creation backlog drive
Hello Bastun:
WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in June!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 1 month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 June 2025 through 30 June 2025.
You may find :Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.
Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over {{Rounddown|{{formatnum:3,205|R}}|-2}} pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:25, 20 May 2025 (UTC)
- If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add :Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page.
Roy Jay
Thank you for removing the slander directed against me on the Roy Jay talk page, the particular user doing it is rather annoying, making death-threats on my talk page (already removed) and making annoying little edits on the article. Could you look into it, perhaps request a block of that particular IP-address if that is possible?

--Not-Roy-Jay (talk) 13:31, 21 May 2025 (UTC)
:Hi, {{u|Not-Roy-Jay}}. I've just removed another threat made on that article talk page. Please also see Wikipedia:Responding_to_threats_of_harm. I am emailing the address listed there, now, with diffs (links of the edits) of the threats made to you. The IP account will likely be blocked immediately, but if you receive further threats, the information on the linked page is the best advice to follow. I am not an admin and can only delete the threats; an admin can erase them from the page's history. Regards, BastunĖġáḍβáś₮ŭŃ! 10:04, 22 May 2025 (UTC)
:Thank you, will do that. Not-Roy-Jay (talk) 13:36, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

@bastun I’m posting here directly, as the main thread is already long—and on your talk page keeps the discussion fully transparent for anyone who wishes to follow it.
It seems to be that—putting aside broader disagreements—the focused objection you’ve raised is the inclusion of the President of Ireland in the modern clan recognition section.
While I had hoped we could build consensus by handling the article section-by-section, starting with the historical background, I appreciate your input has stalled.
So, in the spirit of compromise and as an olive branch: I'm open to potentially removing the president. In return, I’d ask whether you’d be willing to review the updated historical section—based on Cotter and other secondary sources—for merger into the main article.
Then we can focus on the modern clan info separately.
I believe this would be a constructive way forward and a good-faith step on both sides.
Thanks for considering this. Kellycrak88 (talk) 13:52, 26 May 2025 (UTC)
