Regarding the declined speedy deletion

WP:G7 actually states the following: "(For redirects created as a result of a pagemove, the mover must also have been the only substantive contributor to the pages prior to the move.)" Therefore, your reasoning for declining was invalid, and I ask that you reconsider. Dogmaticeclectic (talk) 18:18, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

you are correct, I didn't look at the target article close enough. GB fan 18:36, 21 October 2013 (UTC)

Poshitis

I have removed the {{prod}} tag from Poshitis, which you proposed for deletion. I'm leaving this message here to notify you about it. If you still think the article should be deleted, please don't add the {{prod}} template back to the article. Instead, please to list it at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion if you feel it should be deleted. Nsaa (talk) 15:16, 22 October 2013 (UTC) Nsaa (talk) 15:16, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Boy, he really went bananas. Thanks for cleaning it all up.--Bbb23 (talk) 01:09, 23 October 2013 (UTC)

yw, it is hard to believe that he was that upset about the article being deleted. GB fan 14:10, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Some speedies

like Kath Eats Real Food should probably be marked as G11 as well as G7 (and might turn out to be G12 also, ) For articles that assert something , but not anything that is really important, I usually think it best to give all applicable reasons. Saves a lot of arguments, and discourages re-creation of what's inevitably going to be hopeless. DGG ( talk ) 00:51, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

I agree that speedies when applicable should be marked with all criteria that apply. In that case I did not think that the article was "exclusively promotional, and would need to be fundamentally rewritten to become encyclopedic." A lot of times it is subjective if the article meets certain criteria. In this case you obviously thought it met the G11 criteria and I didn't think it met the criteria. When I nominate or delete articles under the speedy deletion criterion, I mark/delete them with the ones I believe they meet. GB fan 14:08, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

You may recreate it, but you may not advertise anything on wikipedia the way you did on your user page. Also do not threaten anyone even in jest. GB fan 00:06, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

Reversion

Please review your recent reversion and verify if it was accidental or intentional. If intentional, please explain as it does not seem worthy of reversion at face value.—John Cline (talk) 22:53, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

It was accidental. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. GB fan 23:02, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

You've deleted a page

Hi You have deleted a page regarding the director Antonio Tublén for the following reason: "(A7: Article about a real person, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject)" On what grounds do you find a person who has directed two feature films (where one won the price for Best Feature Film at the Shanghai Film festival, considered an A-film festival)?

Sincerely /Robert — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drmoog (talk • contribs) 22:52, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

If the article had said anything about the things you say he did, I would have not deleted it. Here is the the entire text of the article I deleted.

Swedish director, composer, writer. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0875659/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1

As you can see it did not make any claim to significance. You can create an article that does make a claim of significance. GB fan 23:05, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

Sorry, don't know how to reply within a conversation. I see your point regarding the deleted article. Now I've created a new page about mr Tublén with a fair amount of references to his work. There's still a "speedy deletion" tag, that I deleted and you reverted back to. Sorry, didn't know you weren't supposed to do that. But right now I'm confused over why the speedy deletion tag is still there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drmoog (talk • contribs) 23:59, 6 November 2013 (UTC)

The tag is there because an editor believes that the article does not make a claim to significance. I am not going to review this article as I have already deleted it once. Another admin will review the article and either delete it or remove the tag. GB fan 00:10, 7 November 2013 (UTC)

Ah, ok! Still learning the tricks of the trade here. Thanks for swift reply! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drmoog (talk • contribs) 00:37, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
