You appear to be mass creating articles about Indian villages. Some of these have no indication of notability. Please note that these kind of mass creations need prior approval by the bot approval group, which it doesn't appear you've consulted with. Please stop this mass creation without prior discussion.

I`m not using bot or semi automated tools to create articles. How can I get the authorization?--Александр Мотин (talk) 09:03, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You've massively created articles of questionable notability. For the bot question you might investigate Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval. As a general issue, I'd suggest you slow down an expand upon some of the articles you've already created. Shadowjams (talk) 09:07, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I will look into it.--Александр Мотин (talk) 09:18, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The next step is ANI. Is your response a joke? "I will look into it". You aren't in control of this account? It's this account I'm referring to. Shadowjams (talk) 10:10, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I asked advice from User:Starzynka because you make me to get approval form bot approval group. But I told that I do not use automated or semi automated tools to create articles. Also your phrase "questionable notability" seems to be unclear for me.--Александр Мотин (talk) 10:24, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

• I requested autopatrolled rights — Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/Autopatrolled. It will help to reduce the workload of new page patrollers. If you have claim regarding notability of my stubs we can discuss it here.--Александр Мотин (talk) 12:58, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your autopatrol request has been granted.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 17, 2010; 13:41 (UTC)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Patagundi, and it appears to be a substantial copy of https://www.vedamsbooks.com/no52728.htm.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

It's a (weird) false positive. I have removed the copyvio tag from the stub in question. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 17, 2010; 14:02 (UTC)

I think I`ll get lots of this kind of stuff.--Александр Мотин (talk) 14:04, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'll notify the bot owner. The stub text doesn't even appear on the pages in question. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 17, 2010; 14:05 (UTC)

Thanks. These false positives distracts me so much.--Александр Мотин (talk) 14:07, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You don't need authorise for manual stubs. You are now on good list so no problem. As you see there are a few editors who oppose mass stubs but a lot like you and me who think this very important for future growth and potential of project. You are welcome to help me stub articles. Keep up good work, it encourages me alsoStarzynka (talk) 14:42, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Great. Glad to hear that.--Александр Мотин (talk) 14:45, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

List of places in Serbia needs finishing. It has the population figure next to the village. If you could start them like Lopardince maybe. They all have the same reference. The districts of Serbia list the municipalities to work through. Perhaps you ask User:Ezhiki what can be done for Russia.Starzynka (talk) 15:08, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Alright. I will start asap because it is already evening in Moscow. And I have already sent a wiki-email to Ezhiki.--Александр Мотин (talk) 15:13, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've just replied. Probably not what you expected to hear...—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 17, 2010; 15:42 (UTC)

Well, I know Ezhiki likes to control Russian creation. I thought know as you both speak Russian he would be better to create Russian districts/main towns than me and Ezhiki could provide Russian source. Starzynka (talk) 15:50, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, exactly.--Александр Мотин (talk) 15:56, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I really don't want to "control" anything. I am merely trying to keep the workload manageable by making sure the newly created stubs don't require massive cleanup. WP:RUSSIA is hopelessly undermanned as it is; the least we can do to help is to make sure the new material is of acceptable quality from the very start. Starzynka has been very helpful and understanding of that by far. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 17, 2010; 16:02 (UTC)

This is what I mean Ezhiki, is control not correct word maybe. I mean you want them started with no cleanup needed and some content. I am sure Александр Мотин could create good stubs which you are happy with Ezhiki. For instance Ezhiki, if you provide online Russian source Александр Мотин can understand it where I cannot.Starzynka (talk) 16:07, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Online sources of this sort aren't always easy to come by, but I'll be happy to send copies via email, if that works. The important thing is that Alexander can read and understand them :) That'd be a great help indeed (if Alex is interested, of course).—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); September 17, 2010; 16:26 (UTC)

Sure, I`m interested in this. It`ll be more easy to cooperate because both of us are russian-speaking.--Александр Мотин (talk) 16:48, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I think Russia probably needs the most work than any on wikipedia because of massive size, followed by China.Starzynka (talk) 17:12, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Russia is really large but almost empty . I heard that China has more than 800 000 populated placed and Russia - 157 000, and Russia is only 2 times larger than PRC. So I think India follows China.--Александр Мотин (talk) 17:18, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

India has about 638,500 villages. Starzynka (talk) 17:54, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

So I can suppose that US, China, India and Russia have together more than 2 million populated places. It is very huge amount.--Александр Мотин (talk) 17:57, 17 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Need approval

Hello Александр Мотин, Please see this discussion. Any mass article creation needs bot approval even though they were created by human editors. I suggest you please stop creating the stubs and get an approval. — Ganeshk (talk) 16:11, 22 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
