Revision as of 10:20, 26 March 2018
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 rejected Articles for creation drafts), or in 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, restored as a draft 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. Copyright violations and attack pages will not be provided at all.
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 in the template or on your talk page. Please do not request that articles deleted under speedy deletion criteria A7, G4, G5, G11 or G12 be undeleted here.
Note that requests for undeletion are 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.
- Instructions for special cases
- Speedy-deleted articles - see WP:CSDRFU
- G13. Abandoned Drafts and Articles for creation submissions – see Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion/G13 for instructions.
To contest deletions that have have already been discussed (in particular, at Articles for deletion), or that are likely to be controversial, please make a request at Wikipedia:Deletion review instead. |

There was no need for the page to be deleted. The person in the article was sufficiently significant —Vipcarortann (talk) 05:19, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- Not done – this page was deleted as a blatant advertisement under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion and Wikipedia is not to be used as a vehicle for promotion. This does not necessarily mean a suitable article on this topic cannot be created. If it is a notable topic, e.g., multiple reliable, secondary, published sources that are entirely independent of the subject have written about it in substantive detail (not just mere mentions), then a neutrally written article may be possible. This one was written like a commercial. Hut 8.5 07:50, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Kurt Hill
The reason for deletion is not at all true. Currently I compete in Asia's top formula racing category called Asian Formula Renault Series. Please see wiki page 2018_Asian_Formula_Renault_Series. —Khracing96 (talk) 07:44, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
- Done – as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored upon request. ~ GB fan 09:13, 19 March 2018 (UTC)

- Done – as a draft or Articles for creation submission deleted under CSD G13, the page has been restored upon request.

- Done – as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored upon request. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:10, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- You'd think that valid grounds for undeletion would have to be provided not a list of musicians in a band that lacks notability. Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:23, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- The list adds nothing, but prods can be reversed based on a request. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 00:43, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- Requesting a PROD undeletion here is essentially contesting the PROD after the fact. The next step is AfD. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 11:01, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- And AFD is what is happening now. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:53, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- So if I simply add the name of an article that has been PRODed to this page it will be deleted? We have to provide a rationale to delete or the AfD is rejected by the closing admin. Why doesn't a rationale have to be provided to restore? This needs to change as it's clearly a waste of the project's time to restore a non-notable subject on a whim. Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:41, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- It's specifically because of how PROD works - anyone can contest a PROD at any time, even post-deletion, for any reason. It's something you should be taking up at Wikipedia talk:Proposed deletion, not here. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 05:40, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
Geoffrey James (writer)
Please undelete it and merge histories with Geoffrey James (journalist). - recently recreated and appars to have reasonable notability, for at least three things: The Tao of Programming, several other less famous books, and award-winning blog. Staszek Lem (talk) 21:38, 19 March 2018 (UTC) —Staszek Lem (talk) 21:38, 19 March 2018 (UTC)
Talk:Zak Elbouzedi
The article Zak Elbouzedi was recreated, had its former history undeleted, and I have closed the AfD as "snow keep". The deleted revisions for the talk page should therefore also be undeleted. —GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 02:18, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
Enter your reasoning here and then click the "Publish changes" button below —192.0.143.109 (talk) 02:25, 20 March 2018 (UTC) Have not finished editing.
- Well please get on and edit it. THE PAGE WAS NOT DELETED, BUT you have to work on it at least every 6 months to avoid deletion. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:13, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
Daniel_Pickering
Daniel is the creator of a major children's TV show, Little Charley Bear. The show has aired in over 120 countries. A Google search of "Little Charley Bear" will show how much content exists. —Mark Williams 222254 (talk) 02:49, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- Not done The AFD was very recent. I have also deleted Daniel Clark Pickering Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:11, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Mark Williams 222254: You need to ask the deleting administrator Sandstein (talk · contribs) to consider restoring the page to draft space for improvement, or failing that, request a Wikipedia:Deletion review. ~Anachronist (talk) 00:41, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

- @Agajania: Last time this was restored, nothing happened to improve the page. What do you plan to do this time around? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 04:16, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Graeme Bartlett: I expect to work on this article soon. I just did a search and there is are many sources readily available. Agajania 4:57, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

File:Sioux Hustler Trail sign.JPG
Would like to see the information on the file, if the deletion was based on sourcing issues we compare the metadata for this image with the other uploads to see if it matches. If they do match, it would be reasonable to say that the photo is the user's own work and can be transferred to Commons. —Jon Kolbert (talk) 15:22, 20 March 2018 (UTC)
- After a conversation with Killiondude and Nick, it was determined that File:Trail sign.JPG was an exact copy of this file available with licensing information on it. It has since been transferred to commons at File:Sioux–Hustler Trail sign.jpg. Jon Kolbert (talk) 20:22, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

Lorenzo Iorio
He has over 3200 citations (non-self citations), as per NASA/ADS database, a h-index of 39 (NASA/ADS source), he was cited several times by the Nobel prize 2006 George F. Smoot who is enlisted in the editorial board of a peer-reviewed journal, Universe, directed by Iorio himself. Also the Nobel Prize Kip Thorne cited a work of him in his latest book, and Sir Roger Penrose is enlisted in the editorial board of the journal directed by him. Wikipedia hosts articles for several other scientists in his field who are at a lower levels. It seems to me that its page was deleted because of sockpuppetry issues, not for truly scientific reasons. In any case, years have passed since then. Thank you for the attention Reagrds. —Redwheel (talk) 17:02, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
- Note: The page was deleted as a result of a deletion debate. Admins will not undelete pages that were deleted with discussion here; go to WP:Deletion review or contact the administrator that closed the deletion debate instead. Whether or not it was ages since the last deletion is irrelevant. This page is not for restoring pages that were deleted as a result of discussion; the proper venue is WP:Deletion review. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 19:33, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

- Done, merged with Draft:ComedyShortsGamer. The article was not ready for main space, and there was a later draft. The draft is sparse, the older revisions have more content (but no sources), so work on it there and resubmit for review. The main space name has been protected so that only an experienced editor can re-create the page in main space. ~Anachronist (talk) 22:09, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

Mathletics (educational software)
I just noticed that this was deleted. The deletion rationale was "G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion", which is bizarre because I made an effort to make the content neutral and informative. I would like it to be undeleted so I can have a second copyedit for tone and improve it further. :) —Coin945 (talk) 23:56, 21 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Coin945: Um... there are exactly zero edits from you in the deleted history of that article. Were you thinking of a different one? In any case, I have looked at the deleted version and while I agree it's promotional, it doesn't seem unambiguously promotional. And the creator is a long-term low-volume editor who has edited a variety of subjects and doesn't appear to have a COI, so I couldn't say for certain that the article was created for publicity purposes. It isn't clear-cut to me. But because it was deleted per WP:G11, the person to ask about restoring it (perhaps to draft space) would be the deleting administrator Dlohcierekim (talk · contribs). ~Anachronist (talk) 01:21, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- Oh... whoops I thought I had contributed to that article. I worked on one of their sister games (IntoScience) and when I noticed Mathletics had been deleted I assumed it was one of mine. Don't worry about undeletion. I can just start from scratch. :)--Coin945 (talk) 01:30, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

- File:Sega_Genesis-_Sonic_&_Knuckles_locked_on_to_Sonic3.jpg · ( talk | logs | links | watch ) · [revisions]
This was image was deleted as a derivative work, as it includes video game cartridge artwork. However, the artwork is only a small part of the image; the main purpose of the image is to show how two video game cartridges can be connected. A photo makes this much easier to understand than just explaining via the article prose (Sonic the Hedgehog 3). —Popcornduff (talk) 03:18, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Nothing seems to have changed since Wikipedia:Possibly_unfree_files/2014_May_15#File:Sega_Genesis-_Sonic_&_Knuckles_locked_on_to_Sonic3.jpg including your argument. The artwork is nearly half the image. I think there needs to be a new photo without so much artwork involved. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 06:15, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply. Re: "nothing has changed, including your argument" - I wasn't part of the original discussion. I'm only recalling the image from memory years ago - is it possible it could be uploaded somewhere else so I can see it? Popcornduff (talk) 06:33, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- This discussion shows a majority of users opposed deleting it as well. JOEBRO64 10:42, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Well, to be fair, we're all talking about it based on a memory of the image years ago, and we don't seem to have a great knowledge of Wikipedia copyright policy between us. (The editors in the discussion Joe linked, I mean.) From the sounds of it we're better off sourcing or creating a new image with less of the artwork on on display, but it'd be helpful to see the original image so we can see where the limits are. Popcornduff (talk) 11:00, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Game art is allowed under fair use, so there must be some way that the image can be stored under a fair use license. Was the original reason it was deleted because the uploader tried to release the photo as public? - X201 (talk) 12:07, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- It was deleted because people like deleting things, with a single person calling it "derivative work of the game cartridge art" that got it removed. How is it any worse than game articles that have multiple in-game screenshots, on top of the logo? I fully support the undeletion of this photo. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 18:44, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- We do allow game art under fair use, but only if it meets the non-free content criteria. One of these is that the image must not be replaceable with a free alternative. In the case of game art being used to show the reader what the game art looks like that is not replaceable and it is frequently OK to use it under fair use. This image is being used to demonstrate how two cartridges can be linked together, and you don't need to use the copyrighted portion for that. A picture of two blank cartridges being linked together would serve exactly the same purpose and would be a free image. Hut 8.5 19:09, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Alternatively, one could take a picture of them from behind, which would by and large bypass any concerns about the artwork on the front of the cartridge. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 01:04, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- I think taking the photo from behind might look rather strange. What if we just blurred out the artwork? Would that also be weird? Popcornduff (talk) 02:55, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- Photoshopping the artwork out would be fine, I'm sure it could be done in a way which looks normal. Hut 8.5 20:15, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

Rype
The page Rype has been requested for speedy deletion, even though there looks to be sufficient references from credible sources including Forbes, Huffington Post, Inc. Magazine, and more that either mentions or is featuring the brand. The first reason for deletion seems to be because it's not showing importance, but given the media exposure from credible sources in addition to the number of lessons booked on the platform: 150,000, it appears to show credibility. The second reason is because it claims to have unambigious advertising, but there is no direct call to action or references that may appear to be advertising the brand. The language used of the brand is neutral with no direct mentions on why it's better than similar products or even a mention of its main benefits. Therefore, I request that this page be undeleted. —Seankim53 (talk) 23:43, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
- Note: This page was deleted under speedy deletion criterion G11, indicating an page that was irredeemably promotional or blatant advertising. Note that G11 deletions are more an issue with the tone of the page as opposed to its sources or formatting. As articles deleted under G11 need to be rewritten from scratch, they will not be undeleted as-is here; try contacting the deleting administrator (Ritchie333 (talk · contribs)). Alternatively, you may request the page be restored as a draft or to have the contents of its last known revision emailed to you provided you have email enabled in your account's preferences. A mere "mention" doesn't make a source useful; the source needs to discuss the subject in some depth. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 01:03, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Jéské Couriano: Actually, WP:A7 was probably the real reason for deletion. I looked at the deleted version, and it definitely isn't written in a promotional manner. It's rather well written, actually. It seems well sourced at first glance, but the sources don't confer notability on the subject. I would support restoring this to draft space for further improvement and AFC review, if that's OK with Ritchie333 (talk · contribs) who deleted it. ~Anachronist (talk) 01:13, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- Restored to Draft:Rype. This does not meet the criteria for A7 whatsoever, so I can only assume I hit the wrong button. If I get time later today, I’ll copyedit the draft and accept it if I can find enough sources to cement notability. Sorry about that. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 07:30, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
Massacre of Brzostowica Mała
First, my vote count suggest 'no consensus' rather than preference delete (merge 1, Delete 6, Keep 7). Second, deleting admin (User:Sandstein) noted problems with verifiability, which puzzles me. He notes the lack of English language sources, but so what? WP:NOENG and such - an experienced editor such as him should know well no English language sources are necessary for a topic to be notable (and verifiable). His opinion that " controversial issues in WP:AC/DS topic areas do require good sources in more than one (non-English) language in order to allow as many editors as possible, and not just a few or those possibly associated with one side of a conflict, to assess the content" is totally novel and goes against NOENG spirit. We DO NOT need English language sources to estabilish notability or reliability, scholarship in Foo language is totally fine. Finally, he mentions issues with neutrality and the controversy about perpetrators ethnicity. Neutrality is never a factor in AfD when it comes to deciding whether a topic can be deleted or not, we have {{NPOV}} that suffices for content disputes. Further, as I stated on the talk page of the article where we had a relevant discussion (now deleted...), yes, there are no good sources for this controversial description of the massacre perpetrators ethnicity (regardless of language, when I reviewed this article yesterday or so I couldn't find a single source in any language for that claim, as I noted on the talk). I expected within the few days at most we would remove relevant adjectives from the article as unsourced, and should address neutrality concerns. A lot of people participating in this AfD voted 'delete' because they DONTLIKE said claims about ethnicity of perpetrators - an invalid deletion rationale, and anyway, irrelevant concern since this claim is likely not going to survive in the article because I don't think it is verifiable. But to delete the article about a notable event just because of controversy over a single claim is IMHO quite improper. To summarize: there was no consensus for delete, and I don't see any valid reasons for deletion of this notable topic, controversy over a single fact (nationality of the perps) is not relevant to the notability of the main topic (massacre did happen, nobody disputes that). —Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:34, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- Not done @Piotrus: Since you're a regular, I won't answer with a boilerplate template reply, but I must ask, why are you posting here? Did you not see the blue box at the top? We don't restore AFD-deleted articles by request on this page; this is for restoring non-controversial deletions. You need to contact the deleting admin and state your case to him, and if you are not satisfied with the response, take it to Wikipedia:Deletion review. ~Anachronist (talk) 04:45, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- @Anachronist: Thanks. I've done so but it seems DR will not result in a restore (Wikipedia:Deletion_review#Massacre_of_Brzostowica_Mała). In that case, in line with Wikipedia:Userfication ("For help getting a copy of a deleted article, to put into your userspace, see Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to provide copies of deleted articles, or post at Wikipedia:Requests for undeletion), I'd like to ask for this to be userfied in my userspace, since as at least one other editor suggested in the AfD, parts of this may be eligible for merging to Skidel revolt. At the very least, it will save me time to re-code / reformat some references. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 05:33, 26 March 2018 (UTC)

Michelle McNamara
Initial deletion argued that she had not done much substantial work herself, but was mostly talked about in relation to her famous husband. The page was marked a deletion and redirect to her husband's, Patton Oswalt. Since then her book, I'll be Gone in the Dark, was published. Thanks for considering. —Mvocab (talk) 19:30, 23 March 2018 (UTC)
- Not done – this Requests for Undeletion process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially, and does not apply to articles deleted after a deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Michelle McNamara, it cannot be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Coffee (talk · contribs). After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. ~Anachronist (talk) 19:56, 23 March 2018 (UTC)

—95.187.159.183 (talk) 10:39, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
- Not done – this page was deleted as a blatant advertisement under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion and Wikipedia is not to be used as a vehicle for promotion. This does not necessarily mean a suitable article on this topic cannot be created. If it is a notable topic, e.g., multiple reliable, secondary, published sources that are entirely independent of the subject have written about it in substantive detail (not just mere mentions), then a neutrally written article may be possible. This one was written like a commercial. Hut 8.5 18:06, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
Draft:Quantum enveloping algebra
G13. This is a notable topic not covered in mainspace yet, as far as I can tell (consequently, the draft is still needed) —- Taku (talk) 20:47, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
- Done as the page survived MfD it shouldn't have been deleted under G13 anyway. Hut 8.5 22:34, 24 March 2018 (UTC)
So, the page is again nominated for G13. It seems a bit ridiculous to keep deletion and restoration... -- Taku (talk) 00:05, 25 March 2018 (UTC)No longer nominated. -- Taku (talk) 00:09, 25 March 2018 (UTC)
