Undeletion request GOFINDER

Why delete an article? Why care if it's in beta-test? You may answer me by my talk page.

What does it mean for it beeing non-notable?

Undeletion reuqest

Hi Whouk. I see that you recently deleted Bendigo and District Cricket Association as an expired PROD. I think there's a good chance it's notable and think it should at least go through AfD, so am requesting undeletion of the article. Sorry I didn't catch this before you deleted it. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 00:48, 23 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. No problem - now restored. Whouk (talk) 15:53, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. Jenks24 (talk) 16:05, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Recent deletion of Kid's Praise! 4: Singsational Servants

Greetings. I noticed you deleted this page recently and wanted to suggest also deleting the associated redirects that can be found here. 138.162.8.57 (talk) 13:42, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

2359 Media

Hey Whouk, Sorry for the inconvenience caused. Regarding the article on 2359 Media that has been deleted, I know it is because I was not able to provide any references to provide credibility for the article. I was trying to provide the references but I still do not know how to do it. But recently, I just found help to do so. I'm hoping that you can restore my article and let me add in the references. Thanks a lot and sorry again!

The Avengers

Can I interest you in helping me start the episodes of the Avengers? I want to see articles on them! Google book searching and the Avengers website should be enough to meet guidelines and be of use to us British cult TV fans.

Undeletion request

Hi Will - You recently deleted a page on me (Benjamin Parzybok) - stating the page did not meet the qualifications of WP:Author (lacking multiple independent substantive sources). Though I did not create/edit the page, I thought I'd make an undeletion request, by mentioning the following sources.

Ron Laura

I was sent a email that said that you were the person who deleted the detailed information about Dr. Ron Laura, professor at University of Newcastle, Australia. The information posted was from Dr. Laura himself. It was posted by me, Dr. Fred Berman DC, who moderates his forums, Facebook and YouTube sites. I am also working with Dr. Laura on a new book. I am not a expert on the inner workings of Wikipedia so I am a bit confused why the material was deleted. It was a accurate portrait of Dr. Laura. He is a top selling author, world lecturer, and professor. Please reconsider the removal of his biography or at least explain to this Wiki novice how to reintroduce it.

Thank you,

Fred Berman DC, assistant to Dr. Ronald Laura — Preceding unsigned comment added by Overfiftylifter (talk • contribs) 22:53, 5 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Gliding New Zealand

As the creator of Gliding New Zealand I would have expected the courtesy of being notified that this was an proposed AfD. I notice from your talk page that this has occurred before. Please re-instate until we can discuss this. JMcC (talk) 13:25, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks. Sorry about my grumpy request. I should not have directed my grizzle to an administrator instead of the proposer of the AfD. JMcC (talk) 16:19, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Dizozza deletion

First of all, I don't have a copy of my wikipedia page and now it, and all its annotations, are completely gone.. Can I at least have a copy of what was there?... I believe it is notable. I am an active composer with a long history contributing to experimental musical theater here in New York with La Mama and Theater for the New City. I am Theater Director for the Williamsburg Art and Historical Center... I think that was why I was put into Wikipedia some 8 years ago. I just wrote a new score for a production by Toby Armour and directed by George Ferencz Celebrating 25 years of Theater for the New City at its current location: "155 First Avenue." I am re-appointed Chair of the Entertainment Committee of the New York City Bar Association. I am a council member for the Lambs... Look at the shows I wrote. And I'm working on a new script and score called "The Ocean Floaters." Please communicate with me. Consider restoring the page. Thank you. Peter Dizozza dizozza@gmail.com, dizozza600@cs.com 917-915-7635 ```` — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.173.25.193 (talk) 04:06, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Peter. I can userfy the article for you, but for that - and ideally to communicate on here - it would help if you registered an account (or could confirm that your IP address is unchanging). As per the WP:PROD policy, any user can request the undeletion of a page so deleted - even in a case such as this where there's a clear conflict of interest, since you're the subject of the article - and I've therefore taken your message as such a request and restored the page. You should be aware, though, that the article may well end up being referred to the full articles for deletion process and possibly then deleted again. Whouk (talk) 11:57, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

peter dizozza achieving something notable...

Thank you, Whouk... I'll do my best to keep my artistic endeavors rising up to a level where they might be perceived as Notable... And yes, given that I constantly refer to and rely upon wikipedia pages I will create an account, and do my best to be a helpful contributor as well...

There were also wikipedia references to my musical productions "The Last Dodo," "The Eleventh Hour" and "Prepare to Meet Your Maker" that were deleted... Are those projects notable? Can I say? Yes, a person other than me should determine that, though I think that if anyone gives them consideration they'll enjoy the process and find some benefit in having done so...

I remain at your service...

Dear Mike, I apologize for not having been logged in... I should probably review my wikipedia page, too. Is it OK if I update it? Thank you. Peter Dizozza Dizozza (talk) 13:54, 14 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy removal at User:RevMegatherion

Hi. May I ask for your rationale in removing the speedy at User:RevMegatherion? From WP:CSD: "These apply to all namespaces (and so apply to articles, redirects, user pages, talk pages, files, etc.)". The user is spamming himself and his organization. A lot of OR added to boot. I did not speedy delete outright to give the user a chance to respond and other admins to take a look and make a decision. I do not understand yours. Thanks for any info. -- Alexf(talk) 12:45, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

deletion of Abd (Arabic)

Hi. I'm a bit unhappy about your recent deletion of Abd (Arabic). Unfortunately I missed the PROD, otherwise I would have intervened earlier. The reason given for deletion was "Wikipedia is not a dictionary and no evidence that such a word exists in the Arabic language." Well, there is not the slightest doubt that the word exists in the Arabic language and I could easily provide a wealth of sources for that. It is true that Wikipedia is not a dictionary, but Abd is significant as an element in a large number of personal names, as could be seen from the inward links to the article (over 60 of them). I can't remember exactly what was in the article (as it isn't there any more), but if some improvement is need I'm willing to provide it. SamuelTheGhost (talk) 10:46, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for restoring the article. I notice that the insertion of the PROD, here, didn't have any edit summary, so people who had it on their watch-list (as I did) could easily miss it. Wikipedia:Proposed deletion says "Make sure to provide an edit summary that clearly indicates that the article has been proposed for deletion." Perhaps you would agree that the "Procedure for administrators" on that page should also say that a PROD should not be actioned unless properly flagged up in the edit summary? SamuelTheGhost (talk) 17:20, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your reply. I totally agree with what you suggest. Perhap the instructions in Wikipedia:Proposed deletion could be modified to that effect? SamuelTheGhost (talk) 21:04, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Q-Bah

Page was very well documented and there were wikilinks to articles, interviews and newssites after every phrase. Dutch version on Wiki is also available. Please put it up again or tell us what specificly you missed on the wikipage, so we can add it. Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.77.158.99 (talk) 21:39, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your quick reply. Yes we did. Perhaps it's better to change it to Q-Bah instead of MC Q-Bah (as Google will give out more results, and the Dutch wikipage has Q-Bah in it aswel, not MC Q-Bah). Everything else that was asked for is available and was linked in the wikiarticle: music releases, interviews and links to articles. Also, there are Q-Bah links available on Wiki EN (see articles Xzibit, Fredwreck, Low:http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?search=q-bah&title=Special%3ASearch ). So the article is not an orphan. Could you re-install the page and see what is really missing? Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.77.158.99 (talk) 22:11, 16 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Undeletion request

I'd like to request undeletion of the entry on CARIS. The company has a long history and is very active, and there's a lot of information about it online (www.caris.com, for starters). Lots of mentions in hydro international, and other pubs. Also, I can provide additional info or updates if needed. (sorry about the double entry, I didn't sign the first time) Mark7kram (talk) 12:57, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the fix, and for the welcome info. Full disclosure - I work at the company but have not edited the article. I would like to make the information more current and relevant but, given the COI guidelines, I should probably not edit the article myself. If you have any advice on that issue, I'd welcome it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mark7kram (talk • contribs) 13:21, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of WP Symposium

Hi there,

As the producer of WP Symposium I would like ask for its re-statement.

It was remiss of me not to add 3rd party references of which there are many and I will gladly do so.

Users of WP Symposium have raised its removal as many fou d the page useful in initially understanding what the purpose of the open source WordPress plugin is (similar to BuddyPress which also has a Wikipedia page).

Could we please discuss so I can understand how I can help?

Restore deleted article

Good morning Whouk,

About a month ago I've requested to delete an articular I wrote about Arnon Goldfinger - film director. The reason for my request was my intentions to re-write the article. Unfortunately I realized I requested to delete the wrong article. I would greatly appreciate if my original article can be restored. It was an honest mistake which caused me great grief. I trust you to contact me if any more information is required.

Thank you in advance
