It may not be a great article, but the author was working on it shortly before deletion. Lack of sources is not grounds for speedy deletion of an article like this. No one could have understood this deletion from the speedy policy page. Inexperienced editors should be treated much better than this. Especially when they're recognized outside Wikipedia as knowledgeable. Beating people up with templates and uninformative policy citations does not improve Wikipedia. Besides, aren't speedies supposed to undeleted on reasonable request unless they include offensive content???????

Revision as of 20:13, 24 January 2009
Districtfile (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore | cache | AfD))
My input meets the criteria insofar as possible. Youmeo, Xt3, and many more are social networking websites with equal or less input. For this reason, I do not find it fair to exclude an entry for a social networking website that is real, that exists and that has been written about. I monitor social networking websites and am happy to defend my position. As an alumnus of the London School Of Economics (LSE) I and thousands of other alumni monitor the activities of other alumni (see: http://www.aflse.org/article.html?aid=904) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theibanker (talk • contribs)
Thank you.
- Endorse deletion. Valid A7 deletion; article did not assert notability; "claims to have international membership scope" is probably not enough. Sandstein 18:47, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Miscellany_for_deletion/User:Andries/Sathya_Sai_Baba topic ban by the arbcom was partially revoked: I now have the right to engage in talk page discussion again. See Wikipedia_talk:Requests_for_arbitration/Sathya_Sai_Baba_2#Alternative_motion I think this user space helps me to present source etc. Btw, I do not think that I was ever informed of this MFD and I only found out recently.

Dave Simons (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (restore | cache | AfD))
The entry for Dave Simons was deleted without consultation and also before the page could be fully finished. The reason given was that Dave is "is not inherently notable", an insult to a comic book artist, writer and creator who has been working in both that field and the animation world since the 1970s. The person deleting the page has also stated that only one source was used, this is wrong as sources were being added as the page was being expanded. I believe the page was deleted in haste and wish for it's re-instatement asap. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Daniel best (talk • contribs)
- While the state of the page when User:Gwen Gale speedy deleted it as WP:CSD#A7 needs to be checked by an administrator, can you provide the further sources here to aid this discussion? Usrnme h8er (talk) 11:35, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- See User_talk:Gwen_Gale#Dave_Simons. Gwen Gale (talk) 15:07, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Endorse deletion as valid application of CSD:A7. I also would like to put on record that Daniel best's conduct at Gwen Gale's talk page was extremely poor. Despite that, some citations of reliable sources might change my mind. Stifle (talk) 16:24, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
- Strongly oppose speedy deletion. Based on the Google cache of the article I found this article should not have been speedy deleted.
