Deletion of Zumbeel

Dear Orange,

Can you plz let me know which portion of the article on Zumbeel made you call it a blatant advertising?

Just to add a note, I am not a member of the team that owns Zumbeel, so I dont find anything that might benefit me in advertising it on wikipedia?

But still, I am willing to edit those portions of the article which you think are advertisements.

Thanks & Regards,

Deletion Of Durham/N'thm'land 1

Why have you deleted this page - this is a league within the English rugby union league structure and you deleted it saying it is not relevent. Tell that to the 14 teams which play in it every weekend.

If you search for its relevence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Durham/N%27thm%27land_1) you will see a good 50 or so reference to it. Please reinstate it

Deleted The Numa

Hi Mike,

A quick look at this page shows that you are drunk with power. You dude, are a deletion machine! I wonder why you have such a hard time with ideas?

I was under the impression that Wikipedia is all about ideas. But apparently you don’t agree. You could have deleted the link to the International Capitalist Parties article about the Numa but you chose to eliminate all reference to the idea of the Numa. I don’t believe for a second that you actually believed that the page was blatant advertising. I believe that you don’t like the idea and therefore feel it your duty to eliminate the idea… to protect the little people from a corrupting idea.

What you don’t realize is that you censors can try to stop human progress and stifle ideas that you find offensive all you want. But the river of human affairs will wash you and your small minded ilk from the earth.

I feel sorry for you. To be so small minded. Do you get a lot of headaches?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.154.206.18 (talk • contribs) 18:51, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

IP indef blocks

Hey there, I noticed you blocked 71.219.57.192 (talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) indefinitely for a 3RR violation. Was this a mistake? I also notice you have several other indef IP blocks on Wikipedia:Database reports/Indefinitely-blocked IPs. Per Wikipedia:Blocking IP addresses, IP addresses should almost never be indefinitely blocked. From my understanding consensus is that this means only for something extreme like a WP:OFFICE or OTRS action. Even death threats and legal threats from IPs deserve no more than a year or so from my understanding. Do you have a problem with unblocking (and in some cases, reblocking for a set period of time) the IPs in question? Thanks, VegaDark (talk) 22:46, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lee Hasdell article

Hey Mike. Could I ask you to stop by the Lee Hasdell article and help out dealing with COI-affected ClaudioProductions edits when and if you have the time? Thanks. --aktsu (t / c) 23:53, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Update: I'm nearing 3RR and tired of the BS so I'll leave the page for today. The current issue is his complete rewrite of the lead to one that's IMO both non-NPOV and unreliably sourced (the one that was, was completely sourced). Hopefully you can take a look at it.

Thank for your response to my "Mongolia" question

I do understand that I don't own the articles. But since I am the only author, I figured that I could get them deleted to start again. Anyhow, I'll try your suggestion of just using the existing pages. But I have a bad feeling that this won't work. We'll see.

Redirect issue

Hello Mike.

I got your message about the inappropriateness of redirecting a talk page (would have responded there, but somehow I lost the page, so I'm responding here).

I guess my only defense is a pure heart but an empty head. :>) Didn't know that I was doing anything inappropriate. I value Wikipedia, for which reason I've contributed (along with a financial donation) four rather serious pieces based on research using a variety of languages. But I must say that for me, at least, the rules and instructions written by Wikipedians (?) are so complex and so jargon-laden that it's hard for an old dog like me to follow this stuff. This is not a criticism, just an observation.

Which brings me to the fact that I really have no clue what I did incorrectly or how to fix it. I'm happy to do so, but directions in non-technical language would be very helpful. Thanks —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mongolia62 (talk • contribs) 18:38, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

what do you mean my signature??? I'm just figuring out how to use the links and I just figured out the wiki links problem. I'm at a point where I'm not understanding whats wrong and being redirected to links isn't helping. The information of the other DJs is pending dude to a request of our manager to for approval. I'm still not understanding what you're talking about so unless you got some help detail "how to fix" run throughs that aren't robotic I don't know what to do and might have to seek another information hub that is user friendly.

Dialogic Corporation

Please help me to understand why you have deleted my page. It was quite a bit of work to pull all of the necessary links together. I was the writer of the 'Eicon' page some years ago, so my intention was really to update the information, since Eicon is now Dialogic, and really a lot of changes needed to be recorded. I tried to build the Dialogic page on the same format as the 'Eicon' page, but for some reason you have taken exception to that. I read the section about 'asserting notability', but really I'm none the wiser; it is a fact that it's a well-known international company with a large number of customers, and it is in that sense notable. I could list other company pages I've visited on Wikipedia that are about much less notable companies and yet their pages can still remain up.

It would help me if you could guide me what to do to make the Dialogic entry acceptable in your eyes, rather than just summarily destroying it.

UPDATE: Sorry. I found it now. That must be someone else's dialogic page you deleted.

David Lenz

A penny for your thoughts on David Lenz. I put the COI tag on the article after the subject added an image. Before that, an SPA did all of the edits. It could be a vanity article.

HeroCraft Wikipedia article

Greetings!

Thank you for the quick reply, but unfortunately you just copy/pasted the paragraph from rules, which doesn't answer my question (or perhaps it does, but I just didn't get it). I refer to this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HeroCraft While writing the article I had some other moderators looking into it and pointing out which phrases violate the neutral position rule and should be removed and which statements require references... But the current issue is slightly different: I want to post the logo screenshots for our recent products which isn't actually a promotion or breaking of neutrality, but the answer from moderators was that usage of these pictures may violate copyright. So I just wanted to ask how can I verify the right to use these pictures (they're openly available on HeroCraft company's website http://www.herocraft.com). Thank you in advance for your answer and for your time and please excuse me if I'm asking stupid questions.

Fr. Thomas Janetius

Mike! Your deletion was too soon. I was still fixing it when you began deleting what I was doing sacrificially for hours in the middle of the night. I only slept for a while, and wheww, my article is gone. I guess you don't realize the time difference between your country and mine. By {hangon} I mean hang on for at least twelve hours.FadulJoseArabe (talk) 02:47, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not the Mike you're looking for, but I'll throw in my two cents anyway :P. I would suggest fully making articles in your userspace first, for instance I make my articles in User:Darth Mike/Sandbox. You could use User:FadulJoseArabe/Sandbox or User:FadulJoseArabe/Fr. Thomas Janetius etc. This ensures that your article is fully done before you even create it. -- Darth Mike  (join the dark side) 04:27, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Username question

I was browsing the recent history of WP:UAA and noticed you blocked User:Zentralbibliothek Zürich though it's noted the user is "active on German Wikipedia, contributing to some rather decent articles". I don't read German, but the user is active there and has never been blocked.

I know the German and English Wikipedias have some differing policies, but it seems to me that the username policy between the two projects wouldn't differ that much in this instance. Toliar (talk) 16:16, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Electronic Lab Notebooks deleteion

Hi, Orangemike. Though I'm not excited that you deleted a link to my site :), it was neat to get a look at your page (which quite frankly, I would have never seen otherwise). Anyway, I'd like to plead my case. The link you deleted - to e-lab-book.com - is simply a site where I talk about ELNs (try to compile the latest news and knowledge on ELNs), also a forum is attached. I make no money, in fact I lose money. It's a hobby. I am a neuroscience researcher, the guys who keep editing the link out, are from Recentris or other ELN companies. They SAY my site is an ad, and belittle its webdesign (hey I'm a researcher not an artist), but the fact is they don't like it because besides discussing all the pay-ELNs, I talk about how you can use the computers and software you have as an makeshift ELN. Anyway, I really feel I am within wikipedia guidlines? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.200.86.85 (talk) 18:53, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your deletion of G7 tag on Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/BillGatesRox.

Deletion of The Shangri-La Diet page

This page was not "advertising" anymore than any article which discusses any book or movie etc. This article discusses the diet, it's pros/cons etc. Also there was no warning, discussion, etc. prior to the deletion. Why is The Tipping Point not "advertising"? Why is The Dark Knight not "advertising"? Why is Invasion of the Bee Girls not "advertising"? Why is Freakonomics not "advertising"? Why is The New York Times not "advertising"? etc. etc. etc. Alight (talk) 15:03, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't agree. But if you can restore the text, I'll make edits to make it seem less like an ad.

The The New York Times article states "[it] is regarded as a national newspaper of record. Founded in 1851, the newspaper has won 98 Pulitzer Prizes, more than any other newspaper." Sure sounds like an "ad" for the NYT to me. I think this particular article was held to a higher standard, but so be it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alight (talk • contribs) 15:13, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Your deletion of Monsooned Malabar

Hello,

You deleted the article Monsooned Malabar this morning. Intriguingly, for a four year old article, with over a dozen editors, you did so after it was tagged with a suggested speedy-deletion criterion that is clearly inappropriate. A moment's checking of the article's history would confirm this; such checking was clearly not undertaken by you. It saddens me that you would fail to take the appropriate care, and fail in your duty as a sysop. I would ask that you reverse your action and restore the article. I will also be leaving a note on the page of the CSD tagger, who has similarly erred.

Your deletion of Brainify

You deleted the page for Brainify. To people who are not members of the educational technology community, this may seem like a page which simply describes a website. It is not. This is a site of significance because: 1) its creator is a pioneer in educational technologies. He is a UBC faculty member who produced WebCT - the first widely adopted course management system for higher education. It is used in 80 countries and was the primary driver in on-line learning in higher education 2) this site (Brainify) is the first ACADEMIC social bookmarking and networking site for students. That alone makes it significant.

In my opinion, the article was not biased in any way - though I am happy to argue that point if you feel otherwise. However, as to its significance, as an educational technologist, I can assure you of its significance to the university and college community.

I respectfully ask that you either reinstate this article, or *at the very least* ask the opinions of a few experts in this field as to the significance of this article.

I appreciate very much the need to keep Wikipedia on track, but question the rapid deletion of articles of significance by administrators who may not be subject-matter experts.

Edtechguy46 (talk) 18:46, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(I made the following argument in my talk page, but place it here so people can follow the thread. Sorry - not sure what the convention is for this) Understood Mike - however, the site itself IS still noteworthy to the educational technology community. As evidence of that, the moment it was launched it was covered by the "Chronicle of Higher Education". The Chronicle is the "New York Times" of the higher education world. It is highly unusual for a new website to be covered, but it *was* covered due to the significance of the site. The article is here Artcile. The creator may not be sufficient criteria for notability - but should lend evidence to its notability. The article in the chronicle is direct evidence. Edtechguy46 (talk) 19:02, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]


=======

Mike - regarding Brainify: I received the following suggestion from Wuhwazdat on my talk page. It reads as follows:

-

Perhaps Orange Mike can bring it back from dead article purgatory, but if he does so, I would recommend having the article placed in your user space, editing it there, and BEFORE you put the article back in mainspace, ask a few editors to give it some constructive criticism. Wuhwuzdat (talk) 19:40, 5 February 2009 (UTC)

-

This seems reasonable to me. If it does to you, I would respectfully ask that you place the page in my userspace, and then before I go live with it again, I will connect with you to ask if the significance has been articulated sufficiently.

Please let me know if that is acceptable to you.

Thanks. Edtechguy46 (talk) 19:53, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Clarification

I just wanted to clarify my comment I made on User talk:76.66.196.229. Essentialy what I meant as science fiction themes is that there wasn't any time travel, parallel dimensions, etc., often seen in other works of alternate history. I was assuming that the annon is one of those alternate history fans who support the contention that alternate history is its own genre. I used the Timeline 191 stories as an example to show that even when such themes are not present it still is science fiction.

You have to admit though that despite Turtledove's POV that those novels and others like them have just as much in common with historical fiction as they do with science fiction. I believe Turtledove commented that once that he thought the reason that alternate history has gained an upswing in popularity recently was because of the number of science fiction authors in the 80s who had backgrounds in history. Turtledove, Eric Flint and S. M. Stirling are just a couple of examples who either had degrees in history or else had a strong interest in it. Though interesting to speculate about, I personally have not seen any works covering such a theory. Zombie Hunter Smurf (talk) 19:15, 5 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi - I saw you speedy-deleted Fit for Life. Badagnani (talk · contribs) disagreed and dealt with the issue by cut-and-pasting a version of the article back onto Wikipedia.

Fair enough. And yes, the blog one's not up to much, but the other three at least come from outlets with editorial procedures. So, hm.

Deletion by mistake?

Re the deletion of File:WhiteHeart1970.png. It says F1 and I only ever uploaded this one. Two issues - one is that somebody simply re-upped the exact same image yesterday, cut and pasted the exact same image page, including license, FUR and description supplied by my original upload - they are exactly the same. The only difference is the format which does not meet F1 deletion requirement. So it was not really an F1 because it is not in the same format, secondly I have no idea why the user did this anyway. Could you please restore the original you deleted? Thanks. Soundvisions1 (talk) 13:31, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mike,

1. Last night and this morning two versions of the privateering article came up when the single word ORDRONAUX was entered into the Wikipedia search engine. However, when I tried just now only one appeared so it may have corrected itself. 2.Before I began improving this article there were no primary source references given at all. I have now added source references (not footnotes) to support the whole text, as well doubling its length. I am a published author of history book and know the importance of being able to support every statement. The information that you asked me to read about citing references looks like an encyclopaedia in itself and I do not think it is appropriate to expect someone to absord this without help. And I certainly do not think criticism is due. I have rated the article a STUB myslef as you will have seen. I haven't finished yet and I am being helped in Wikipaedia style by ukexpat.

Why is a living person's biography blatant advertising? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jgalfas (talk • contribs) 19:03, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Does that mean that even if the article is rewritten in a neutral tone about the man that you're going to delete it anyway? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jgalfas (talk • contribs) 19:10, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Q-Industries

Was wondering how I may improve this article as I don't see how this is blatant advertising. This article seems to be on par with articles such as IBM, Proxicom, Ascentium, and Accenture. I also would like for my user page to be restored as I apologize for messing up the editing with this article. This is a new try at it so would like another chance as I navigate through this complicated process.

TechAmerica Deletion

Mike,

You deleted a post I recently put up for "TechAmerica," as per it was just advertising, but the intent of my post was to be the new home for:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Electronics_Association

and

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_Technology_Association_of_America

The organizations recently merged and I would like to start building out the new association's content. Please let me know how I should move forward.

I went ahead and posted a new section in each of the former profiles about the merger being finalized.

Vandalize of article

Did not mean to vandalize Webby Awards page. Did not realize this was overwritten and would never do this intentionally. Sorry about that. Will look at instructions as to how to roll back screw ups like this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Margpeng (talk • contribs) 19:26, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Yoozur/Yoozur.com

A few months ago, I published an entry for Yoozur. The page was speedy deleted because the site was still in Beta testing and had not gone live, therefor the landing page read "Future Home of Yoozur.com".

The site is currently up and running (http://yoozur.com) and I would like to ask that I be able to go in and recreate my entry. This is a social networking site, not unlike Facebook or MySpace, and I would ask that it receive the same respect and opportunities that these sites do within the Wikipedia community.

Thank you.

edit Q-industries article

Thanks for the advice. If I edit it in my sandbox, could I run it by you again before trying to post to make sure it's ok? Margpeng (talk) 22:03, 10 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

User talk:KWesting

This user has made an unblock request. Seems legit and the "self-promotion" she was engaged in before the block seems relatively tame. I'd appreciate it if you hopped over there at your convenience and took a look at the block (alternately you can hit me up on my talk page, as I probably won't watchlist this one).

APAMSA?

Would you be able to review jellybeaneater: APAMSA post? It's the one that you had deleted. Thanks! Jellybeaneater (talk) 03:24, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
