Regarding removal of DOB

Thanks for your contribution on Draft:Sudipto Sen, but I want to know why you removed date of birth? Need guidance on it. IvivekChoudhary (talk) 00:10, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi @IVickyChoudhary, as far as I could see in the source linked there was no mention of the date of birth, if you can find a reliable source feel free to restore it. Good luck. – Isochrone (T) 00:13, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
Ok, thanks for your kind words. And what's about the approval? IvivekChoudhary (talk) 00:18, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

Keystone National High School Edit Removal

Hello, thank you for your assistance on the editing for the Keystone National High School. The information on there is extremely outdated. The history section that was removed was listed as fact as to the establishment of programs at Keystone, as it is no longer just a high school as is currently listed on the Wikipedia page. The demographic information provided was fact and established based on the accreditation information approved by Cognia. How can I go about getting the factual, up to date information listed without it being removed and looked at as a "commercial"?


The below, which was listed as the Demographics section, is fact about the school based on the information provided for accreditation in 2023.


The Keystone School is a distance learning program that serves a variety of learners across the globe. Keystone students are located

across all 50 United States and almost 100 countries. Schools and districts across the country utilize Keystone’s curriculum to offer their students

credit recovery, summer school, or individual course offerings. Families enroll for a variety of reasons, typically including one or more of the following:

· Traditional homeschool families

· Increased flexibility when compared to brick and mortar school

· Year-round start options

· Accredited education

· Greater parental involvement when compared to brick and mortar school

· Support from certified teachers in a home learning environment Natialyse (talk) 14:06, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello @Natialyse,
First of all, please add a reliable source instead of adding an external link. You can do this by pressing the cite button in the toolbar. Wikipedia articles must be written from a neutral point of view, and the above text is very clear promoting the establishment:

when compared to brick and mortar school

like a sales pitch, comparing it to competitors

across all 50 United States and almost 100 countries

The above uses very peacocky language. To add, the content you added was like a copyright violation of https://www.keystoneschoolonline.com/. Wikipedia can only accept freely licensed content.
It's pretty obvious you have a conflict of interest with the article subjects so I highly recommend you follow the information at the aforementioned page on how to make edit requests so others can update the information for you. – Isochrone (T) 14:23, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Hello. I suggest replacing File:St John Ambulance UK Logo 2019.svg with File:St John Ambulance logo.webp, as the former will be removed from Commons by c:COM:TOO UK. — Ирука13 04:50, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

@Iruka13 I've uploaded it as pd-usonly on enwiki and replaced it as suitable – Isochrone (T) 16:26, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

More ads, please.

I am requesting you make three more ads, one about astronomy, one about biology, and one about geography. I will really appreciate them animated, questioning if they like anything similar or exact to the WikiProject topic. 8  foo.bar("baz"); 04:30, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Hi @FooBarBaz, it's been a few years since I've done ads, and I'm a bit busy at the moment. I'll have a look to see if I can but it may not be for a while. – Isochrone (T) 14:06, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
@Isochrone As long as the ads are complete, I will be fine. Take as long as you wish. 8  foo.bar("baz"); 19:25, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

New page reviewer granted

Hi Isochrone. Your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group. Please check back at the permissions page in case your user right is time-limited or probationary. This user group allows you to review new pages through the Curation system and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or nominate them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed. New page reviewing is vital to maintaining the integrity of the encyclopedia. If you have not already done so, you must read the tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the deletion policy. If you need any help or want to discuss the process, you are welcome to use the new page reviewer talk page or ask via the NPP Discord. In addition, please remember:

  • Be nice to new editors. They are usually not aware that they are doing anything wrong. Do make use of the message feature when tagging pages for maintenance so that they are aware.
  • You will frequently be asked by users to explain why their page is being deleted. Please be formal and polite in your approach to them – even if they are not.
  • If you are not sure what to do with a page, don't review it – just leave it for another reviewer.
  • Accuracy is more important than speed. Take your time to patrol each page. Steps such as checking for copyright violations using Earwig's copyright violation detector, checking for duplicate articles, and evaluating sources (both in the article, and if needed, via a Google search) for compliance with the general notability guideline are mandatory and will take a few minutes per article.
  • Please review some of our flowcharts (1, 2) to help ensure you don't forget any required steps.
  • Use the message feature to communicate with article creators and offer advice as much as possible.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you also may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In cases of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, or long-term inactivity, the right may be withdrawn at administrator discretion. If you can read any languages other than English, please add yourself to the list of new page reviewers with language proficiencies. — Ingenuity (talk • contribs) 23:38, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
