SEMI-RETIRED
This user is no longer very active on Wikipedia.


Dear Sir, the said article has eventually been deleted after going through a proposed for deletion nomination, then article for deletion nomination followed by two re-listings - which goes to show the procedural maturity in wikipedia - but my only regret is that despite my elaborate explanatory notes as well as complete revamp of the article when compared to the 1st version (as also acknowledged by an administrator regarding the author's "hardwork") - still till the end, I remained the sole creator -cum- contributor to this article - whereas I kept hoping throughout this duration of nearly 4 weeks that some of the reviewers would also help me out in tracing more material and content for the same.

I just have two queries for you, that is if you may choose to reply: 1. Did you go through the talkpage contents - both at the AFD talkpage as well as the article talkpage OR the deletion was due to no . of "Delete" vs "Keep" votes? 2. Is it possible for you to have the deleted article put into my userspace?

Update ...

... on our FAC editorial in the Bugle, including your comments, here. The idea for this editorial was to give a lot of brief statements by a lot of people to convey the idea that there's broad support for the idea that anyone can (and more should) review at FAC. After we see if the editorial has any effect, we can try to do something less scattershot in another editorial. Please let me know if you are (or aren't) happy with any effect this might have at FAC. - Dank (push to talk) 19:45, 2 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

RE:Heads up

Ok. Thanks for the heads up. Hope it has enough supports for me to pass it. GamerPro64 03:31, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Transylvania Television Page Reinstatement Reqeuest

Dear Wizardman,

I am posting another talk thread to your page to request reinstatment of the Transylvania Television page.

The article was subject to an AfD: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Log/2011_April_17#Transylvania_Television

Which unfortunately, none of the interest parties commented or provided additional content, media references during the discussion period and then you, per the AfD deleted the page.

I subsequently contacted you and MelanieN, about reinstatement, you both advised that if provided more noteable articles, the page could be reinstated. http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:ElationTalk&oldid=425940633

Given that advice, I created this talk page, providing more content, which is now moved to your archive, and as far as I can tell, no comments back from you on the issue. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Wizardman/Archive36#Transylvania_Television_Page_-_re-in-statement_request

Please forgive me, if I am missing something, I am new to the WP, and am trying to follow protocol. Does my request being moved to your archive, with no follow up, mean you will not reinstate the page? Or have you not had time to get to it? I have tried to be patient and not pester you, as it's deletion is our fault in not providing information during the AfD period.

If we can get the page reinstated, we will update and address the AfD issues. If you cannot reinstate, is our next best option to go through the formal Deletion Review process?

Thank you and regards ElationTalk (talk) 23:10, 3 May 2011 (UTC) ElationTalk[reply]

FTC problem

Hey Wizard, I just promoted Atlantic Coast Conference football championship games. When I updated the history part in its talk page, it says that its a good topic. Do you know how to change that? GamerPro64 01:49, 4 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You have to mark the topic's repromotion on each articles' talk page, and add it to the topic's relevant category. Once that is done- you'll have four articles in the topic's "featured content" category and four in the "good content" category, the wikimagic will take over and promote it to an FT on the topic's talk page.

Would you be billing to userify to me? He'll be a 1st round NHL draft pick next month, so he'll meet the "rules" at that point.--Milowenttalkblp-r 17:39, 6 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Datang town (Chengdu Datang) at RFD 04-24

Not to cast judgment or doubt on your actions, but I seriously question whether a waiting period of several months (perhaps July) would resolve these issues:

  1. Whether Thryduulf or Rossami come barging in. They say they seriously consider my arguments, but did not respond at all to my first bullet point (about confusion). So long as they come in, they will absolutely ruin the debate, to the effect of trolling, even.
  2. Whether new arguments or circumstances can surface. The metropolitan area of Chengdu would have to expand at an unthinkable rate (60 km in several months!!) to even barely include this town and possibly force a re-organisation of counties. So long as the current state of affairs holds, my argument about confusion will remain the same. My other arguments will probably be the same.

Hence why I consider waiting out useless and why I will probably consider renominating within a few weeks. –HXL's Roundtable and Record 04:23, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Rfd closures

Thank you for going through and sorting the backlog at RfD, but you didn't place the {{oldrfd}} template on the talk pages of redirects that were not deleted. I'm going through and doing this for you now, but it would be helpful if you could do it yourself in the future. Cheers, Thryduulf (talk) 08:36, 7 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
