Fəxrəddin Veysəlov

Hi, You have deleted my wikipedia page. May I ask you why? I am a professor of linguistics and my books, articles and work was pulled together on that page. Could you please reinstall it. Kind regards, Prof. V. Veysalov — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fəxrəddin Veysəlov (talk • contribs) 10:04, 27 March 2016 (UTC)

Fəxrəddin Veysəlov aka User:Fakhraddin Veysalli, Wikipedia is not a free host for you to write about yourself and your work. Regarding a possible mainspace article, kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no CoI thinks you are notable and writes about you here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:03, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

RHaworth deigns to reply

Wikicology, I am pleased to see you withdraw your legal threat. I would prefer you to withdraw fully your moans about invasion of privacy.

Fully withdrawn. Thank you. Wikic¤l¤gy^{t@lk to M£} 11:08, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

@Peter Damian: I'm deeply sorry for any misuse of words. It has never been my intention. Cheers. Wikic¤l¤gy^{t@lk to M£} 11:11, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Peter Damian, is there actually any request in the above for me to take action? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:03, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Wikicology, thank you. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:33, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

I think, seeing as you hold the block button, and seeing as you indirectly allowed him wreak devastation on articles about poison, an indef block might be in order. Against this, people (and he himself) are arguing (1) that he made a few innocent mistakes, and has learned his lesson, and (2) that he has been a credit to Wikipedia since he 'rejoined'. In reply to (1), the mistakes clearly weren't innocent. He lied about IP addresses, pretended he had only socked for a few says, rather than nearly a whole year etc, and is still saying it was merely a 'misuse of words' rather than blatant lying. Clearly his whole purpose was to get his wretched autobiography onto Wikipedia, it's just that he became increasingly sophisticated. To (2) his bizarre edits to two poison articles could easily have caused someone to get killed. This is hardly a credit to Wikipedia. Clearly to establish a reputation he tried to create as many articles as possible, by the simple technique of plagiarising a single article then supporting it with unconnected references to add gravitas. Indef block in my view, to encourage the others. What sort of message are we giving out by allowing him to stay? I will leave it to you. PS I have just been notified about this, which seems to be the same story. I will check out tomorrow. — Peter Damian (talk) 19:03, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

You and Wikicology both need to be less long winded. Could I have a link please to these "bizarre" edits. I am inclined to say reformed character. What sins has he committed in the last six months? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:33, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Let's start with Nitrogen dioxide poisoning. Now deleted, and some other articles cleaned up. Basically to gain points on Wikipedia he plagiarised other articles, and added fake references. Some of the stuff he added about poisons was completely wrong. Is that enough? Jytdog has suggested he be banned from any medical topic. I suggest he be completely banned from Wikipedia. EOMPeter Damian (talk) 19:43, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

I am sorry that you feel this inappropriate, but I had understood that seeking advice and counsel is something encouraged by behavioral guidelines, and while I do appreciate your own efforts to ensure Wikipedia is to be edited only by experienced editors, my question becomes how does one gain that experience unless one actually does edit the encyclopedia we are told ANYONE CAN EDIT? Might you be wiling to assist in my minor efforts to improve the project? Wikic¤l¤gy^{t@lk to M£} 23:58, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

(talk page stalker)

A recent example. This was just the first randomly picked recent contribution that I checked and just reverted, so there's probably a lot more, likely far too much to be checked by even a handful of people. - DVdm (talk) 20:06, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Second random check: [1]. Removed unsourced red links [2]. - DVdm (talk) 20:19, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for your comments. My action is fine in the example you pointed out. Yes, I removed the external link because the link there is already on the infobox. In this edit, and this one you pointed out, my edit is also fine. Firstly, I created Olu Aboluwoye and I nominated it for deletion myself. The article was deleted and it still appear on the list of notable faculty member on the Adekunle Ajasin University article. {U|Dvdm}}, should "Olu Aboluwoye" remain on the list? The removal of other non-notable people from the list is also justified.

Per this policy, a person is typically included in a list of people only if all the following requirements are met:

* The person meets the Wikipedia notability requirement.

The person's membership in the list's group is established by reliable sources.

There are some common exceptions to the typical notability requirement:

If the person is famous for a specific event, the notability requirement need not be met. If a person in a list does not have a Wikipedia article about them, a citation (or link to another article) must be provided to: a) establish their membership in the list's group; and b) to establish their notability on either WP:BLP1E or WP:BIO1E.

No reliable sources to established the subject notability and no indication that the people met the above requirement. Hence their removal. Please don't see my comment as argumentative. I'm only trying to explain the reason for my action. There are lots to learn here and no one is perfect. I will address all the concern raised and there is no doubt that I've learn from my mistakes. In the interim, I will focus on general cleanup on the articles I created. If I need help, I will contact a more experienced editor. However, I will start doing this by next week. This week is a stressful one for me. SlimVirgin's and other editors at ANI have advised me to stay away from health-related topics and I will stick to that advice. — Wikic¤l¤gy^{t@lk to M£} 22:46, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Unblocking deleted page

Hi there. The page Ritika Singh was deleted (rather abruptly) last month. She has since gone on to win recognition at India's biggest film awards, National Film Awards for her work in that film. [3] The actress in question has also provided several more interviews, signed more films etc. Would you be able to unlock the article and allow it to be created again? — Editor 2050 (talk) 10:44, 28 March 2016 (UTC)

Editor 2050, "abruptly" - nonsense - the AfD discussion ran twice as long as usual. Giving interviews is not evidence of notability! What matters is where the interviews are written up and published. If you really can show that she has become notable since Feb 22, submit a new article via AfC. If it is accepted then unprotection will be uncontroversial. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:33, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

H.I.Fraser

Hi RHaworth, H.I.Fraser Group page has been deleted. What can I do to bring it back and could you please also explain what exactly is the problem, I am not too sure. Many thanks! Marina Zarnitsyna 06:20, 30 March 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Marina Zarnitsyna (talk • contribs)

If you do not accept unambiguous copyright infringement as an explanation, then I cannot help you. But kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no CoI thinks your company is notable and writes about it here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:33, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Deleted Article

Dear Roger, I was just informed that you deleted a Wikipedia page named Goran Obradović - Čele that I created. The page was removed under Article7 article about a real person, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject. Seeing that I am new at this, I did not have time to write the whole biography about Mr. Obradovic, who is the best track and field coach in history of Serbia and one of the best track and field coaches for jumping events in the world. I want to publish another article, but this time I will write the complete biography. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Track & Field Serbia (talk • contribs) 09:27, 31 March 2016 (UTC)

Noted. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:00, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

LuxuryEstate page deletion

Hello Roger, Please forgive me, I am new to Wikipedia as a contributor. I am writing this following the link you provided me in the email I received from you. I have little background in coding so I understand some things, but it's not easy :) Let me please try again.

You deleted the page: LuxuryEstate and this page was already tagged for "Speedy deletion" by another users. I clicked the button and wrote why I think this website should have not been deleted. I do not know if you can read this message. If not I will write it again. If you had the chance to read it, I would like to ask you why the page has been deleted.

I took this page as an example, because it's a similar website with similar numbers. And it's listed in Wikipedia. JamesEdition. I just do not understand and I would like to learn. I paid attention in writing it, not emphasising anything, just wrote facts supporting them with references. — Marcus Domus 11:42, 1 April 2016 (UTC) Mark — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mark parmigiano (talk • contribs)

Mark, if and only if you have no COI, create a new article which provides some evidence of notability and submit it via AfC. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:00, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Rickey BackWood$

Didn't the article claim to be assigned to a notable label, or am I thinking of another article? — Adam9007 (talk) 12:38, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Adam, please learn to provide a link if you talk about an article - even if it has been deleted. Fourth time lucky for the creator. Currently at AfD. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:00, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

deleted article, need the info

Hi, You deleted my page that I have been working on for hours. Can you please send me the content? I currently have a page in draft (waiting to be reviewed by wiki). This page is not for promotional use. Just like many non-profits on wikipedia, this page aims to inform people about the organization and it's founder, etc. Link to deleted page: Deeds Not Words(DNW). I had also explained why this page shouldn't be deleted under Talk. Please further explain why you deleted my page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nshower (talk • contribs)

Nshower, all your edits are available in the edit history of the draft article. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:28, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Deletion of Hartert's fig parrot as hoax

Hi @RHaworth: - just noting that the bird in question does actually exist, e.g. see [4] - entry #4. User:Hinata Ryunosuke have been harshing my mellow for a good while because they never source their additions and apparently don't know what a talk page is, but at least they are not making up birds (1st of April notwhithstanding). That stub would need sourcing but it's legit. What do you think of reinstating it? I shall then go about ref'ing it. - On a related note, if you know of a method to get an editor to pay attention to their bloody talk page at all, please tell me, because that person seems to exist in blissful and futile isolation... -- Elmidae (talk) 15:37, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Ageline database

This was not spam, restore the article please. Likewise for Ageline. And Art Index. — Headbomb {talk / contribs / physics / books} 15:51, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

copyrighted material

You deleted our article citing copyrighted material. I would like to let you know that you are wrong in your swift judgement! The material used was a personal account of meeting the person who the article was written about. I personally put that information online in 1997. Even more, the current Assembly that owns the content of the website granted a written permission to use this historic account.

We've been trying to comply with Wikipedia's requirements, despite useless canned responses of various Wikipedia reviewers for nearly two months. A number of folks stepped in to assist in research. Please be a bit more sensitive to other folks' time and effort. Please restore the article and we can make adjustments, if you be so kind to read and explain your objections. If you need any proofs that we have all legal rights to the materials used, this can be arranged as well. This is what you deleted: draft:Anna Reinke. Cheers. Ssinyakov (talk) 17:08, 1 April 2016 (UTC)

Ssinyakov, who the "we" in whose name you are writing? Corporate accounts are not allowed. Also I object to the phrase "canned responses" - draft reviewers do not do that. You clearly did not read their responses and act on them. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:28, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

RHaworth -- No, no corporate accounts here. Just a number of volunteers, members of the Baha'i community, that decided to commemorate the life of a historically significant member in our community. She happen to live in the very same county as we are, and the very first Baha'i in the entire state of Texas. Unfortunately, we added all the new findings about her directly to the Wikipedia's article, assuming it'll be always there. Had we known about possible delete action, we'd at least keep a copy of the draft for ourselves. In fact, the very same day that you deleted it, we've added two additional references, one from an doctoral dissertation and another from a regional newspaper. So, we were getting pretty close, or at least we thought so...

If you'd be so kind to restore the article, we'd be able to submit new changes for review, and hopefully get it approved this time. Ssinyakov (talk) 02:14, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

See this re using copyright material on Wikipedia. But establishing notability may be the greater problem. Text emailed. Feel free to try again. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:38, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Hello

I know you can't possibly do anything about this issue that I am going to address, but I saw that you deleted a file that I uploaded File:Ariana Grande - Dangerous Woman (Album).png because it is redundant to File:Ariana Grande - Dangerous Woman (Official Album Cover).png. I have seen that the second file was actually uploaded later than mine, so I don't know why my version was deleted but not the user's. I have noticed that the user is always doing the same thing, trying to delete album covers while replacing with his own version, and nominating the original party's as deletion because it is redundant, but in most cases, he does it to replace the album covers with 300px PNG covers, which he claims it is what is "preferred". However, I uploaded the Dangerous Woman album cover with the same 300px PNG and the file size was lesser than 100KB, and he removed mine for some reason after I uploaded mine. I just wish that such file deletions should be checked first before deleting the album cover. I apologise if I sound rude or whatsoever, but this user has always had something against me, and I am really annoyed. I don't see how he can get away with it, but when I tried to do the same thing, I can't escape. Do you have any solutions? Thanks! (please ping me if you reply.) & mdash; Nahnah4 (talk | contribs | guestbook) 04:38, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Nahnah4, why do you say "you can't possibly do anything about this issue" and why don't you name "the user"? The fact is that if it is a genuine problem then something can be done. I am not myself inclined to take the matter up but a well referenced request for action at ANI may well produce results. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:52, 6 April 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Firearms Import & Export

Where can I find the deleted talk page for this article? Was there any input from other editors, such as was solicited from Wikiproject Firearms? Why was I not given an explanation for the deletion on the article talk page or my user page? I put quite a bit of effort into that article so I think I at least deserve some explanation. Not much incentive for people to donate their free time creating useful articles if they are summarily deleted. — Ghostofnemo (talk) 06:58, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Also is there any way I can recover the content? Perhaps it can be used elsewhere.Ghostofnemo (talk) 07:00, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

News article that mentions the firm (Associated Press): https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2194&dat=19691217&id=hKIyAAAAIBAJ&sjid=-uwFAAAAIBAJ&pg=3013,951304

Mentioned in a gun enthusiast article: http://www.guns.com/review/2013/04/08/gt-27-tanfoglio-pistol/ The reason for creating the article was that I could not find this information, and there were many Google Search results with people asking at discussion lists, "Have you ever heard of this company?", "Where can I find information about FIE?", etc. — Ghostofnemo (talk) 08:07, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

From the Guns.com article cited above: "The GT 27 and clones were made from the 1960’s or possibly earlier until 1990, and can be fun to collect. The earliest all steel Italian guns are of course the most desirable, followed by the early EXCAM imports. FIE sold several variants, including a highly ornate and gold plated “ladies” gun with painted roses on the grips. The best part about collecting the GT 27’s are their low cost and ready availability. Many thousands were sold in this country, and many still remain in sock drawers and closets gathering dust, and even the scarcest will not command much over $200 new in box." Thousands sold over 30 years. — Ghostofnemo (talk) 13:33, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

RHaworth, any way this article could potentially be restored to userspace or draftspace since Ghost appears to be committed to trying to improve the article and search for sources to establish notability? Appable (talk) 22:12, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

I understand that the administrators who deleted it didn't think the company was notable, but on what basis? It was in business for decades and its products are well known. It sold a wide range of firearms. I'm just curious what objective criteria were used to determine notability. Was the decision made by people who have any knowledge of firearms? — Ghostofnemo (talk) 07:47, 3 April 2016 (UTC)

Could you, please, restore the page you deleted on April 1. A lot of research was put by a number of people and after two month we just don't feel like starting it all over again.

Iranian Biofuel Society (IBS)

Dear RHaworth, Iranian Biofuel Society (IBS) is not a company, nor a normal organization but an academic society in charge of promotion of biofuels in Iran. I had placed sufficient explanations in the Talk page earlier. I greatly appreciate it if you kindly take a look at the references again and please reconsider your decision.

IBS is a non-profit academic society established by an act of the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology (Iran) and is in fact contributes to the implementation of clean energy carriers in the country. It is the focal point of scientists and scholars working in the field in the country and hold educational and extension workshops, seminars, and conferences to achieve a cleaner environment.

This is the announcement of the establishment of IBS released on the Official Newspaper of the government of I.R. of Iran. It is in Farsi though but any Editors on Wikipedia who also understand Farsi can verify the authenticity of the page.

Thank you again for your kind understanding and cooperation. Regards, Meisam tab (talk) 12:15, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Please also consider the Official Site of the Ministry of Science, Research, and Technology (Iran) announcing the inauguration of the IBS branch in the Central Region of Iran in Isfahan. (my apology for the lengthy link; that`s how it appears in the address box :-))

I would also like to point out that the User nominated the page for deletion, i.e., User:World Cup 2010 is apparently a native Farsi speaker and could have very easily verified these points. However, my gut feeling is that the major pint of the nomination was vandalism. — Meisam tab (talk) 12:31, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
