It is probably confusion with the contribution notes.


It would have been clearer if you would have written

Changed common name for Josh/Joshua Peace based on common name thread http://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=viewtopic&topicID=732320&PageNum=1&messageID=2294690#M2294690


Or something like that.

It is usually best to keep the notes to what you did.

My guess us you got two different screeners for each profile.

two different profiles with same contribution notes.

one right, one false? it can not be well that are differences for screening.

and no one has looked at the common name thread. neither the 10 NO voter nor the screener.

now I'd like a statement from the screener.

thx emmeli

its already been pointed out to you that there is more than one screener..

And the notes are NOT identical..

Just resubmit the one which failed

If you had 10 people voting NO i don't have to guess why the screener declined it.

You didn't provide enough information for voters and when you did update the notes you made them less useful, not more.

Scooter's suggested notes are good.  The more information you provide the better.

Whenever I receive even a single "no" vote I double check my contribution.

Most of the time the voter is correct and I need to add or change something.

On the rare occasion I feel the contribution is correct as is I usually send a pm to the "no" voter. I want the voter to know that I saw their vote and explain why I disagree.

"No" votes are a way to let the contributor, voters and screeners know that there might be a problem with the contribution.

If you receive any, you might want to reassess your contribution and see if you can change things to address the voters' concerns.

This is what I do.  Sometimes the NO voter is wrong, but they usually aren't.  But even if they are wrong many times it is because of how the notes are worded and many times that is all that needs changed.

But never take a NO vote personally.  All here have good intentions and there is nothing personal about the votes.

such situation as to be seen at last happens often while contributions are made before checking out pending updates for the same profile

I know at least two pending updates from other users in my country doing the same right now ...

And that exactly was the point. If someone votes no, and believe me it happend more than once to me too, than first try and check if you've overlooked something. It happens to everyone.

Exactly; I've actually received Greenies for my No votes when the person, instead of taking them personally, finds them helpful and the No vote explanation enables them to correct their contribution... and an accurate database is awhat we all want in the end
