== Reinstatement of Beer Auction Game ==
Permit me to disagree on the Speedy Deletion of the [[Beer Auction Game]]. You refer to A7, which explicitly excludes educational institutions when using A7.
I therefore would like to state that you used A7 incorrectly for Speedy Deletion of a University content output.
Also I disagree to Speedy Deletion which would not have been the proper way anyway in this context.

Therefore please reinstate[[User:Bmwtroll|Bmwtroll]] ([[User talk:Bmwtroll|talk]]) 14:17, 12 March 2014 (UTC)

This talk page is archived every month (if I remember). The older pages are indexed at User talk:NawlinWiki/Archives.

Please sign your comments by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ).

Wondering why your pages were speedily deleted? Check this list first.

Do you want to move a page that I've move-protected? Discuss the move first on the article's talk page. If there's a consensus for the move, let me know and I'll unlock the page.

Please add all comments at the bottom of the page (or I may not be able to find them).


Wiki page deleted

  • Hi Nawlin. I would like to include these links as reference for the wiki page(Echospawn_Studios). I hope I am posting this correctly as I am very new to this wiki creation, and it has been quite hard to understand all the processes. I just want to set up the wiki pages properly.

Link 1: http://unityassetreview.com/publishers/29429 Link 2: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#publisher/5886 Link 3: http://www.echospawnstudios.com/ Link 4: https://www.facebook.com/EchoSpawnStudios Link 5: https://twitter.com/EchospawnStudio Link 6: http://www.linkedin.com/company/echospawn-studios

I am not sure what kind of references you are looking for but I hope this is enough. Please respond quickly so I can re create the wiki page.--NickLustig (talk) 07:07, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • The problem with all of these sources is that they were written or posted by the company itself. In other words, they're not independent. We require independent, third-party sources. Please read, carefully, WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:12, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ok now I understand, I thought it meant credible sources of the actual information. I will find links of public reviews from third parties, because there have been several. --NickLustig (talk) 11:28, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Price & Myers

Hello, I have updated the link on the Astley Castle Stirling Prize to one that lists all parties involved in the restoration and not just the architects. This, and many other awards won by the firm, is why the page is notable. Also note that Price & Myers is mentioned (and linked without a page) on multiple articles throughout Wikipedia. Pm12345678910 (talk) 13:59, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well, (1) I can't read the article because it requires registration; (2) the article on the Stirling Prize specifically says "The RIBA Stirling Prize is awarded to "the architects of the building which has made the greatest contribution to British architecture in the past year." " (architects, not "architects and consulting engineers"); (3) even if the article you cited mentions Price & Myers as the consulting engineer on the castle, that's not really enough. You need to cite us to articles that describe Price & Myers itself. See WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:59, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings ... copyright references

I'm not certain precisely what passages you find in need of improvement, but if you can point them out; I'm happy to provide the relevant links - especially around this sentence "Some of the methods, language and analytical approach is borrowed from a precursor projects "Doing business" sponsored by the World Bank and WIPO "Start Up Academies" - which are cited with links. The original <no follow> links appear to have been deleted because those are intended for the references section (correct)? horizontal integration 23:46, 5 March 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cfelker (talkcontribs)

Reinstatement of Houghton International

Dear NawlinWiki,

I added the response below on 24th February but have not received a reply. I have made all the amends requested and as far as i am aware the current draft on my user page meets the criteria as stated below. I would be grateful if this could be resolved as a matter of urgency as its been over a month since my original contact.

Regards Cedric McMillan


Reinstatement of Houghton International

Dear NawlinWiki, Thank you for your feedback. I am somewhat confused as to why we do not meet the WP:CORP criteria as we now have 3 quality independent sources linking directly to the organisation; The Journal( national media),AEMT the international trade association and IPO, the UK patent authority.Is there a minimum number of references required as i have seen other organisations on Wikipedia with less than 3?

  • OK, so you have a writeup in a trade journal and one article in a local newspaper. That's arguably enough to prevent the article from being speedily deleted, but I still don't think it's sufficient under the criteria in WP:CORP. If you were to repost the article, I would not speedily delete it, but I would list it for a deletion discussion at WP:AFD to see what other editors think.

A word, sir

I believe you made a minor slip up. Duke Olav Otterson of Bornholm (talk) 20:32, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Page Deleted from User Space

Hi Nawlin, you appear to have deleted a page from my userspace. Could you please restore it. Please note the page is an important resource for me and was userfied for a reason. A comment on my talk page would have been appreciated. Thank you. Affinemesh94464 (talk) 06:27, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Affinemesh94464 (talk) 07:46, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Deleted article

Please reinstate the article about WeatherTAP. WeatherTAP is a resource used by many different industries. 21:53, 7 February 2014 NawlinWiki (talk | contribs) deleted page WeatherTAP (A7: No explanation of significance (real person/animal/organization/web content/organized event)) Counts ak (talk) 16:00, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Deleted Page

Please restore page "Deon Levingston" as it is under construction. He is a significant name in the radio broadcasting industry, as the many sources provided showed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LMSalandra (talkcontribs) 17:31, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I believe you may have protected this article from being created due to repeated attempts that met WP:G11. That was over three years ago. I came across another attempt at WP:AfC, and it looked like a fitting stub. I found some good sources and moved the submission to Napier (company). I would like to Napier Enterprises to redirect there, if possible. Thanks! — MusikAnimal talk 00:52, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm extremely confused on why the page, Tyler James Jacobs was deleted. it was marked as no list of why it was necessary, but a film maker holding large quantities of awards for short films and being rated Q and J's TV personality of the Year, is obvious reasoning for significance. Thank You. If you could help, Please Restore.

  • No, this is a high school/college amateur filmmaker posting multiple articles about himself and his films. See WP:V, WP:COI, WP:SPAM. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:59, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Incorrect, My name is Jacob Hamm, i am a photographer in Oklahoma, i wrote the information about Tyler James Jacobs, who is yes, a student at Oklahoma Christian University, but Tyler is also holder of large short film awards and has been nominated for Q and J awards, which from the links you gave and the information above, show validity, weather you feel a person is an amateur or not, does not discount them being information people should be allowed to view. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, If a five year old were to write a book, and it got published, would you not put the book in an encyclopedia, because the child is an "amateur"? It remains the same, fact is fact and when a page has information one might look up with the proper references and information without exploiting itself as trying to "grab attention", then it is what it Wikipedia was first meant to be, a way for people to learn more about the world.
  • I'm sorry if i'm sounding rude. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ovalindustries (talkcontribs) 01:38, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Question regarding your recent blocks

Why did you block User:Urrgh! it's an account? The block reason says disruptive editing but I do not see anything disruptive maybe other than the Shakugan no Shana edit, but the user apologized for the failure to understand WP:UCN and I don't think people are normally blocked for one mistake without even having the possibility to appeal (talk page blocked). Was it a misclick and you intended to block someone else? Negaternary (talk) 21:50, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Talk page access for 74.44.160.39

Hey Nawlin, I've been watching that IP for a little while and it is obvious that they will not be using his talk page for anything constructive. Is it possible to revoke their talk page access? -- LuK3 (Talk) 22:06, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
