Deletion of Images of William Green Elementary

Hi Fastily, you deleted the images I had uploaded and you cited lack of licensing information as the reason for the deletion. I made these graphs and I'm OK sharing these graphs with anyone. Would this be the correct license to include in teh description: {{PD-self}}?

Reese Williams

Hello, Fastily. Will you redirect Reese Williams to Reese Williams and Bianca Montgomery? Why was it deleted when it was just a redirect before? Because of copyrighted versions of the storyline in the edit history? Flyer22 (talk)

As you can see, Fastily is away. I would expect that it's because Reese Williams originally redirected to List of All My Children miscellaneous characters#Reese Williams, and when List of All My Children miscellaneous characters was deleted, the redirect was deleted too (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 10:20, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

I see. I suppose I'll wait until Fastily has returned, instead of requesting this of someone else. Flyer22 (talk) 21:22, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

The editor who redirected it to that character page really should have left it as a redirect to the couple article, I must say. That article covers the character in great detail, and with real-world information instead of just WP:PLOT. Flyer22 (talk) 21:24, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Re-started Talk:Applied Biological Materials, a page you previously deleted

Hi Fastily. Hope that was OK. Then again, see this. Best wishes, and looking forward to see you back in late Nov 2011 --Shirt58 (talk) 12:45, 7 November 2011 (UTC)

Google Adwords Express article deleted

HI,

I had created an article "Google Adwords Express" and submitted to Wikipedia. I think its a new product from Google and people must know what it is exactly all about. You had mentioned G11 some promotional touch that article have. I dont think so the article hold promotional touch. Even I had edited the page viable to wikipedia.

If possible let me know what mistake I made exactly, so that I can overcome from next time. Is it possible to resumbit the same article or renew the article I had submitted.

Wikibreak enforcer

Hi there, this is User:Basalisk. I'm editing as an IP as I messed up my configuration of the wikibreak enforcer and have managed to lock myself out of my account until next week. Would you mind sorting things out on my java page? Thanks 46.64.86.194 (talk) 13:33, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) It just happens that Fastily is using the wikibreak enforcer till 24 November 2011. HurricaneFan25 13:34, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Could you (or, in your absence, an admin TPS) please look at this template and determine why it was deleted? G6 seems pretty tenuous to me. — This, that, and the other (talk) 23:27, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Undelete File Request: File:SPRIMONT (Huy).jpg

File:SPRIMONT (Huy).jpg

I believe I fully specified the source for this file; apologies if was incomplete (but the trail indicates I fully cited the image.) Here is the full citation:

1. This is OUT OF COPYRIGHT; it is 361 years old.

2. The source is: Fonds LEFORT, part IV, register 3, Armorial de Huy.

3. This source is maintained (archived) in the AEL (Archives de l'État à Liège).

This is COMPLETE, and proper way to cite a primary source (many examples of scholarly citations exist; MLA, CMA, Turabian, etc. For example;

http://libguides.gwu.edu/content.php?pid=8881&sid=189511

Please be so kind as to undelete the file, as it is fully cited. You can visit the State Achives in Liege as I did, and confirm this as a primary source!

Thank you and Best Regards,

Thomas SPRIMONT

P.S. There is no additional information. If you required something else, I cannot determine what that is, so please let me know.

Added by another used: Support I think. I can't see the file but the source given above was plainly in the description (which I can see via Google cache); not sure why a no-source tag would have been applied. I admit I can't find much information about the named source, but I do see similar references in a couple of places (such as here). If there is any doubt about the named source, it should be brought up in a regular DR (or asked on the uploader's talk page first).

YOHO Artist Studios - Is this article OK now? Please advise. Thank you very much.

Article in a box.

YoHo Artist Studios is a community of producing artists and crafters that work out of two of the former Alexander Smith and Sons Carpet Company Mills buildings at 540/578 Nepperhan Avenue in Yonkers, New York. The population renting private studios here has grown to over 60 working artists since the current owners acquired the five-story loft buildings in 2005. History of The Alexander Smith and Sons Carpet Company Mills: The buildings were originally developed in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s and housed the Alexander Smith and Sons Carpet Company, as well as seemingly endless ancillary plants. The entire complex consisted of 38 sprawling acres with more than 40 buildings contributing. Hordes of workers filed in each workday, some manufacturing Moquette and tapestry power looms and others using these looms to weave their share of some 50,000 yards of carpet daily. At the peak of production the facility was the largest carpet manufacturer in the world, employed more than 7,000 people, and required wool from 15,000 sheep each day. This was the largest carpet manufacturer in the world for much of the 83 years the company was in operation here in Yonkers. Not one employee lost his or her job during the Great Depression; it was agreed that hours would be cut, but jobs were not. The company was constantly improving their looms and increasing output. The company maintained a good reputation and solid success until the end of World War II, when, after a number of employee strikes the city’s largest employer relocated to Greenville, Mississippi, where workers were not unionized. In the mid-1950’s the Yonkers plant shut down entirely, leaving a massive complex vacant and an estimated 5,000 workers without jobs. At closure, almost half the workers had put 25 or more years of their life into this company. The stronghold along Nepperhan and Saw Mill River, and within the Yonkers community, was suddenly gone. Beginning of YoHo Artist Studios: With the deindustrialization of cities like Yonkers, comes the abandonment and deterioration of these massive buildings as communities develop an alternative economic purpose for their vacant properties. In this case, most of the 40-building complex stood empty for nearly 20 years until developers and smaller manufacturers began securing them for various uses. The two loft buildings that house YoHo Artist Studios today were purchased in 1978 by Mr. Allan Eisenkraft of Yonkers Industrial Development Corporation, who spent a total of about $4.5 million in conversion renovations. The buildings were then rented out to small businesses, mainly for manufacturing or creative industrial uses, the lower floors still operating in this manner today. In 1983, the loft buildings were listed in the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of the Interior. Several years later, Yonkers and Eisenkraft began see the trend of artists moving out of Manhattan and into more affordable work space outside of the city. Thus, some of the space on the fourth floor was dedicated to be used as artist studios in the early 1990’s, and was given the name YoHo, or “Yonkers’ SoHo.” As artists sought larger spaces that they could afford, they were attracted to areas like Yonkers, which are within a 25-minute commuting distance to the traditional arts centers in SoHo and Chelsea. Some artists and crafters began sparsely occupying Alexander Smith and Sons Carpet Company Mills as well as other aging buildings in Yonkers in the early 1990’s, YoHo Artist Studios, its Members, and Their Work: When asked about YoHo, members describe what their personally customized space at Nepperhan Avenue means to them. Many of the studios exhibit their artwork and interests . The Great Hall on the fifth floor is a common, gallery-esque space where the artists are able to display their creations and collaborate with fellow members or meet with prospective customers. Private events are also held here, as well as scheduled open house events when the building and its members open their doors to the public. The studios and common areas utilize the original 14-16 feet high ceilings and factory-style windows to allow for bright light and open floor plans. Among the artists that rent or have rented space at YoHo include producers of murals, collages, sculptures, mixed media, and portraits. While the population is made up of primarily visual artists and specifically painters, there has also been a jewelry maker, a surface decorator, tattoo artist, lighting fixture designer, and custom motorcycle graphic artist. Recent Expansion and Recognitions: The community has earned official recognition by New York State Senator Andrea Stewart Cousins, who deemed April 18, 2009 “YoHo Artist Studios Day.” In addition, the Mayor of the City of Yonkers Philip A. Amicone issued a Proclamation recognizing YoHo’s role in the growing artist community by dedicating a day to YoHo as well. YoHo has grown and expanded since the property’s most recent acquisition in 2005. In the beginning of 2011 the owners started planning for the incorporation of 25 new spaces that would occupy a newly-opened fourth floor wing. These new studios sought to improve upon the original 50+ studios that were already occupied at 540 and 578 Nepperhan Avenue – by this time known to be Southern Westchester’s largest artist community. Transportation: Yonkers has a extensive public transportation network, and therefore the studios are accessed from many directions. Transportation to and from Manhattan can be obtained via the Hudson Line Metro North Railroad (the Glenwood and Greystone stations are just a couple miles away), express service operated by the MTA and Bee-Line bus systems (a bus stop is located in front of the YoHo building), as well as the New York Water Taxi.

File namespace noticeboard idea

Hi there. As a file worker, I'd like your input on the idea of a noticeboard for file workers. The prototype is at Wikipedia:Village pump (idea lab)#File Namespace Noticeboard.

Please comment at the VPIL thread, or edit the page linked to there directly, as I can't keep track of this conversation if everyone I invite to comment on the matter responds on their own talk pages. Sven Manguard Wha? 07:41, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

P.S. I know you might not get this for a few weeks, but it's worth a shot. Plus, people stalk your page.

360networks page

Could you please provide some direction as to why you deleted the 360networks page and how I can recover the content to make any edits you require? It had been posted for nearly 2-years with no reported issues, regular updates as needed, citations provides and guidelines of encyclopedia-like entry followed in terms of factual vs. advertising content. It was even cited in other Wikipedia articles, such as the Hibernia Atlantic and Global Crossing entries(now broken links), as well as external links such as http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-214-506-7177 for a citizen researching a telemarketing fraud issue. The company has been instrumental in building the wholesale telecom industry and is a case study in effectively emerging from bankruptcy. Having just been purchased by Zayo, the article's absence from Wikipedia in September now creates a hole in the greater wholesale telecom story. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skeoch.s (talk • contribs) 15:55, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) The moment anyone thought it was a good idea to include the supposed fact that it's "debt-free", it became obviously promotional, possibly intended to prop up the value of the company via its Wikipedia entry. On top of that, I see nothing in the entire article that even suggests that it meets the notability guidelines...especially those in WP:CORP. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 16:35, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Deletion of Ansell

I see that you speedily deleted this article per G11. Unfortunately, this created quite a few redlinks, including Ansell (disambiguation) where the deleted article was the primary topic.

I seem to remember contributing to the article some years ago, and at that time it was not advertising. It seems that at some point the article was highjacked. Is there any way of retrieving the history so that we can restore an earlier and acceptable version?

Thanks.--Mhockey (talk) 03:07, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

I've gone back to a December 2008 version, and it pretty much matches the June 2011 version. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:14, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, but all I see now is a redirect to Ansell (disambiguation). The lost article I was looking for was one on the long established Australian company Ansell, which started life in about 1890 as Dunlop Australia. There are now a lot of links to the dab page which should be to the lost article on the company.Mhockey (talk) 03:13, 14 November 2011 (UTC)

Fbot adds "move to Commons" despite wrong template

Fbot marked File:159th Fighter Wing.png (and a few other files) as eligible for a Commons move despite having {{Non-free image data}} and {{Non-free image rationale}}. The two templates imply that an image is not eligible for a Commons move, so could you add them to some template blacklist? It would also be practical to have "move to Commons" tags removed if found on an image with these templates.

File:159th Fighter Wing.png is in fact in the public domain, so I will fix the licence templates and move it to Commons. --Stefan2 (talk) 16:45, 13 November 2011 (UTC)

Oh wow. Those templates are so old and ill used that neither Fastily, Drilnoth, nor I remembered that they existed when we built the blacklist for Fbot. I've added the template to the Fbot task 2 and task 4 blacklists, meaning that files with those tags won't be tagged in the future (task 2), and images that have those tags and are tagged for transfer to commons will be untagged for transfer (task 4). I've also sent an email to Fastily, who is on Wikibreak, to see if he could run an emergency run of task 4 to fix this. Thank you for bringing this to our attention.
