Revision as of 01:05, 11 February 2013


Welcome. Please note that this page is NOT for challenging the outcome of deletion discussions nor to address the pending deletion of any page.

Requests for undeletion is a process intended to assist users in restoring pages or files that were uncontroversially deleted via proposed deletion, under certain speedy deletion criteria (such as maintenance deletions), or in "articles for deletion" debates with little or no participation other than the nominator. This page is also intended to serve as a central location to request that deleted content be userfied or emailed to you so the content can be improved upon prior to re-insertion into the mainspace, or used elsewhere (you may also make a request directly to one of the administrators listed here). This means that content deleted after discussion—at articles for deletion, categories for discussion, or miscellany for deletion among other deletion processes—may in some cases be provided to you, but such controversial page deletions will not be overturned through this process.

This page is only for requesting undeletion of articles or files which have already been deleted. If the article you are concerned about is still visible, but has a warning message (template) at the top, please do not post here, but follow the instructions on the template or on your talk page.

Note that requests for undeletion is not a replacement for deletion review. If you feel an administrator has erred in closing a deletion discussion or in applying a speedy deletion criterion, please contact them directly. If you discuss but are unable to resolve the issue on their talk page, it should be raised at Wikipedia:Deletion review, rather than here.

I do not think this page should be deleted. I do not understand the reason for the exclusion and wanted the opportunity to review and fix the errors that caused the deletion.

This was deleted after a discussion on AfD where no substantial references could be found. It is unlikely to be restored and this page is not the correct forum. Rmhermen (talk) 20:03, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done. Please assume good faith. The article was deleted after a deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Laurie Elyse. If you think the discussion was wrongly decided, or you have new information, you should contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Malcolmxl5 (talk). Then, if your concerns are not addressed, you may raise them at WP:Deletion review. JohnCD (talk) 21:23, 3 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ziron

After wanting to confirm a feature of Ziron i found the page had been deleted for a lack of reliable independent secondary sources, but i believe with a correct "google search", results will turn up from even a university, http://www.google.com/#hl=en&tbo=d&sclient=psy-ab&q=%22Ziron+programming%22&oq=%22Ziron+programming%22&gs_l=hp.3...3241.4357.3.4484.12.12.0.0.0.11.196.1621.1j10.11.0.les%3B..0.0...1c.1.2.hp.UIDvDZkkpqk&psj=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.41867550,d.Yms&fp=bc1f469cdd946056&biw=1920&bih=1055 -78.83.46.47 (talk) 16:20, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Question: what was the title of the deleted page? There has never been an article at Ziron until just now (after your request) a very basic one-liner was created. That has been PRODded, but if you can expand it and add the references to significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources needed to show notability, please do. JohnCD (talk) 11:06, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The version created in Oct 2010 was a single paragraph about a property company, written by someone with obvious COI.

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. The COI company page version was a different topic. I have restored the deleted revisions on the software but not the company. Bwilkins likely looked at deleted revision after I restored some.

Kendra Morris

Article was rightly deleted due to AfD 4 years ago. She has since been signed, released an album and several singles, and is gaining attention due to a song in the upcoming film Dead Man Down. I'd like for the old revisions to be undeleted so that I can see if there is anything useful. At least I want to see why someone thought she was notable before she was even signed. Even if it's garbage, it won't hurt anything in the history. -▫ JohnnyMrNinja 10:41, 5 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Monsterland

unclear why it was deleted

12:13, 25 April 2007 Fuhghettaboutit (talk | contribs) deleted page Monsterland (Article about web content that does not assert the importance or significance of the subject. (CSD A7))

The deleted page referes to the band Monsterland which was an important part of the Connecticut music scene in the 1990's. The page is referenced in the existing Wiki page here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thom_Monahan I have no way of knowing why it was deleted but I think it would be more fitting to include whatever further information needed to make the page viable than to delete. If the page returns I will attempt to add content.

Thank you for your time.-108.176.254.124 (talk) 04:26, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done well the deletion note you found above (from 2007) mentions some web content and in fact the deleted page was not about a band but about a browser-based drawing game called Monsterland as well. If you think the band merits a page it still needs to be written. If you don't have an account you can try Articles for creation --Tikiwont (talk) 15:45, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Joe Vaz

I have no idea why my page was deleted, according the reason given on the page it was due to "Not notable unreferenced autobiography. No significant coverage in independent reliable sources". I find this very odd since a) I am an actor working in major international motion pictures and television, and b) since the page contained links to my official website at JoeVaz.com as well as to my imdb page, http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1978748/, both of which, I think, 'provide significant coverage in independent reliable sources'. Run a google search upon my name and you will find books, films, television programs, reviews and interviews about and with me. I do exist, and I am in the public eye, so I do not see why my page should be removed. -Fridgerat (talk) 02:16, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles concerning people. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning people will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. Your own website is not independent; and the IMDb is not considered a reliable source. Besides, lots of people in the IMDb are not notable: I ought to know, I'm one of them. --Orange Mike | Talk 19:13, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This has nothing to do with unambiguous advertising or promotion. I am a public figure, mentioned on several pages already on wiki with no wiki profile. Have some links.

And I hardly think 28 acting credits and 95 news articles on imdb is 'not notable'
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1978748/news
I just find it a little odd that every one of the films I have worked on is on wiki, with my name in the credits, and yet you feel that having a wiki page for Joe Vaz is unnecessary. I thought the point of wiki was to be able to cross-reference information. I was obviously wrong. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.132.180.69 (talk) 11:32, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

reasoning -108.20.187.56 (talk) 14:42, 8 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi AxVault is significant because it is not a for profit business yet and it has created a new use for the web. I wish we made money.

This description may get to the essence of the new concept better. ’AxVault online guitar archive, introduced the concept of web based records for historical provenance and the idea of “virtual Provenance”: i.e. utilizing the crowd sourcing of the internet to help identify and create a web based pedigree for guitars and other collectibles.

maybe we are not wording properly. There is no website that is that has attempted this concept. I believe it belongs on Wikipedia. Our concepts are very original.

From: Mindscape Sent: Saturday, February 09, 2013 5:17 AM To: Wikipedia Subject: Question about a deletion

Hello,

I was searching to edit content on Mindscape Band and it shows it as non-existent anymore. I am wondering if it was vandalized or removed by someone in an abusive manner. I can’t even find an instance of its existence anymore and appreciate any help one can offer.

Thank you for the support.

Creator, founder and copyright holder to all Mindscape material www.mindscape.ws


two users show as deleting the US bands page after over 8 years of ethical actvity and acceptable use and standards with Wikipedia. I would like to contest the deletion and ask that Wikipedia please reinstate the band's page. There are no known dead links, or invalid info that is linked to the bands page. Phantomsteve was notified of communication with Wiki admin support via PM, also unclear on why site would be deleted. Can support documentation with supports emails. It is all copyright protected info and validated information from cited sources in accordane with Wiki policy. Thank you for assistance -Mindscaperussia (talk) 11:22, 9 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Farrah Sarafa is a notable Palestinian poet, who has won awards and helped support justice, peace and understanding of the situations in the Middle East -- Iraq as well -- at large. There is speculation that article was deleted by a pro-Israeli propagandist--- trying to wipe out any mention of Palestine.

Please reinstate ==> shouldn't take down valuable references to a region in conflict .... Her poems are being studied in schools around the world and are present in textbooks.

 Not done We don't normally undelete pages that were deleted through speedy deletion criterion A7 here in any event, though I do question whether it met that standard—certainly I would have declined an A7 given the content—and it might very well be overturned at Wikipedia:Deletion review if properly brought there, but note that even if this was a proper topic for undeletion here, such as a article deleted based on a prod, I would not undelete the article based on your request because it contains an unsupported, scurrilous assertion of bias as the basis for the deletion. We should never allow even an appearance that an undeletion request was carried out because it was in any part acceding to such uncorroborated rumor mongering, as granting your request might by viewed.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 17:46, 10 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
