Shortcuts

Requests for undeletion is a process intended to assist users in restoring pages that were uncontroversially deleted via proposed deletion and under certain speedy deletion criteria, such as CSD G6. This page is also intended to serve as a central location to request that deleted content be userfied or emailed to you so the content can be improved upon prior to re-insertion into the mainspace, or used elsewhere. This means that content deleted after discussion—at articles for deletion, categories for discussion, or miscellany for deletion among other XfD processes—may in some cases be provided to you, but such controversial page deletions will not be overturned through this process.

This page is only for requesting undeletion of articles 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 on the template or on your talk page.

Note that requests for undeletion is not a replacement for deletion review. If you feel an administrator has erred in closing a deletion discussion, and you are unable to resolve the issue on their talk page, it should be raised at Wikipedia:Deletion review, rather than here.

National Center for Midwest Art and Design

The National Center for Midwest Art and Design was founded in 2007 and is based at the Figge Art Museum, the oldest art museum in Iowa. NCMAD is headed by Dr Gregory Gilbert, the head of art history at [[Knox College][1].. NCMAD has sponsored a number of important projects and exhibitions, including the current John Deere art collection show.[2]. This is a significant institution in the field of 19th and 20th century Midwestern art and design history. -173.29.33.192 (talk) 07:38, 31 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why don't you register an account (it takes less than two minutes) and start the article? The article was first created with no references and no indication of importance and, more importantly, was a copyright violation of Figge Art Museum#National Center for Midwest Art and Design, as it copied and pasted the text from that section of that article without any attribution. It was then speedy deleted, then recreated with no content and speedy deleted again. I will not undelete the copyright violating version, and even if it wasn't a copyvio, were I to undelete and then add your content in its place I would be claiming your content as my own. So just register an account and start the article. If you do so with the above content, it should not be speedy deleted as it contains sources, and does not appear to be a copyvio, though you shouldn't forget that to make those sources display, you need to create a separate references section and add {{Reflist}}.

As a patented professional pluridisciplinary painter LINKELS Josy, pseudonym: JOLI is an inhabitant from Luxembourg. Having achieved a countless number of personal applied art exhibitions and participations concerning art competitive exams in Europe and beyond he accomplished the missions as a permanent european Deputy of the Académie Internationale de Lutèce (Paris/France), as an official corresponding of the Encouraging and Educating French Society of Education "L'ELITE" acting also in Paris such as the academic French Society of Education "Arts-Sciences-Lettres".

Since 1970 Josy achieved also numerous unpaid artistic, cultural, social, humanitarian, altruistic and philanthropic activities.

He is titular of the "European Merit" as an inhabitant of Luxembourg born in 1943 in Luxembourg-City. Josy is today a qualified Doctor of sc. art. h.c. and as a Doctor of fine arts h.c. (honoris causa), a distinguished Officier de Leopold II,King of the Belgians, Officier de la Couronne du Royaume de Belgique/Officer of Royal Crown of Belgium, Chevalier/Knight de l'Ordre de Mérite du Gr.-D. de Luxembourg and Chevalier de l'0rdre grand-ducal de la Couronne de Chêne/Knight of the grand ducal Order of the Oak Crown,a golden Cross holder of the French Order of Merit and Devotion, gold Medal bearer of the French Courtesy and of the academic Society Arts-Sciences-Letters and so on.

"JOLI" is ambidextrous and able to realize simoultaniously the same drawings, creations and texts a. so on using '''both hands''', the right hand to draw "them" from the right side to the left side and the left hand starting from the left side to bring "them" to the right side and vice versa on all fixed support staying in any position.LINKELS Josy (talk) 15:30, 2 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

William_J._Lashua

I don't mess with wikipedia's pages, but to dispute against the deletion of the article on Joshua J. Lashua that he is indeed a significate person and is related to web content. Joshua J. Lashua is a World War II veteran, and hundreds to thousands of people are attempting to come together from various sources to thank him for his services on his upcoming birthday on September 4th. I understand if he was just another person, but his veteran status for World War II should have significance on allowing a page to exist on him.

Pentaphobe

Despite limited dispute around 27-28 June, 2009 (on the deletion request page), the artist appears to pass numerous notability requirements at this time.

Although the artist has a minimal online presence, a google search shows hundreds of related videos, reviews, social mentions and they appear closely related to other artists and pages listed on wikipedia Beats Antique, Maduro, Amon Tobin, Ark 21 and Bellydance Superstars.

Perhaps notable that the admin who finalised deletion has dishonourably resigned?. -Visinaut (talk) 04:21, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Consider writing an article in your userspace with some specific refs and asking for input from others about whether it's viable (need evidence to see what you're seeing). An AFD "delete" decision is not "and never", just a "not at the time of the discussion". Seems pretty obvious that artists could become notable over time no? I would have closed the AFD the same way given the evidence presented there. DMacks (talk) 04:26, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Makes sense. It appeared that there was a fairly even spread of pass/no-pass criteria and that the deletion went ahead regardless - I will read up more on the specific criteria that it didn't pass and address them, rather than staring intently at the ones that did.

The article (Scroogle) has been censored by Wikipedia administrators/moderators and no specific reason was provided. The discussion page has been emptied and there is no log available anymore. This isn't acceptable for an open and democratic system which Wikipedia describes itself as. The reason why this specific article is being censored is obvious: the author of Scroogle.org is the same author of Wikipedia-watch.org, which is a website where there are articles talking about the dangerous power of Wikipedia's administrators and moderators. Isn't it funny? Let's prove there're wrong and remove the censorship of the Scroogle article on Wikipedia. -Poulpage42 (talk) 21:47, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done. The article was deleted as a result of a deletion debate at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Scroogle (2nd nomination) and, as it was re-created after that, protected from recreation. The deletion debate has been blanked for privacy reasons, but you can still read it by clicking the "history" tab. If you think the deletion debate was wrongly decided, or that there is more information available now which might affect the outcome, you should first approach user PMDrive1061 (talk · contribs), the administrator who protected it, and if he does not agree you can go to WP:Deletion review.

There was a time when people like you weren't administrators because there wasn't such thing as an administrator on Wikipedia. At least not ones that are completely anonymous and have an underestimated power. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Poulpage42 (talk • contribs) 20:50, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done. No coherent reason given in this "request". DMacks (talk) 22:37, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The deletion debate can be read at [3]. Myself I would dispute the blanking as there is no obvious reason for it. However WP:DRV is the place to go to get it back. A userfication could be possible as it was deleted for lack of notability. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:12, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Remixes for the Damned

Why would you delete a page describing a band's album? Your reason was 'unremarkable album'. That is a matter of opinion. -Grozo (talk) 00:18, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Aiken drum (talk · contribs), who PRODded it, in case s/he wishes to nominate it at Articles for deletion. Wikipedia doesn't aim to be a catalogue of every album issued - albums, like other subjects, don't get an article unless they are notable, and to show that you need references to show substantial independent comment about this album. At present the article is no more than a track listing. JohnCD (talk) 08:49, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unikkatil

-96.251.150.190 (talk) 00:47, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. You do not need to post a whole new article here. I have restored the article that was deleted; please add new information, and particularly references to establish notability, to that, but do not give links directly to music samples.

I wish to restructure the old content with more research to identify its notability. I need the content that I added to the page in order to work on it -Silivrenion (talk) 03:21, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Imperfect Harmonies

JzG deleted the article, because he says the album is "not out", which isn't an excuse to delete the article, because there are hundreds, if not thousands of articles already on unreleased albums (take Linkin Park's "A Thousand Suns" as an example). This album comes out tomorrow, so I was restarting the article with the basics, then allowing other users to fill in the blanks, so I'd like the article undeleted, please. -MightyJordan (talk) 09:29, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The release date is postponed 2 weeks, see http://www.artistdirect.com/nad/news/article/0,,7351945,00.html However I think that the concerns in the AFD were addressed as there is now a known tracklist, album cover and release date. So the G4 delete was inapplicable. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:24, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Not every album is notable ... (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 13:21, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It may actually need to sell copies before it proves itself, however notability was not an issue in the AFD. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:43, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

GoodyBurrett LLP

The proposed article on GoodyBurrett LLP, deleted on 19th June 2009 3rd September 2009 and 7th April 2010, should be undeleted as it meets the guidelines for inclusion. The company operates in Colchester, Essex and plays a key role both within the local economy and as a responsible member of the community. I believe the article should be re-instated firstly as it would add balance to the other Colchester-based solicitors firms that have been allowed wikipedia pages in the past. The most notable example being Birkett Long LLP. Secondly, in light of the companies continued efforts in fundraising through events such as the Three Peaks Challenge for The Anthony Nolan Trustand their involvement in the Colchester Cycle Challenge. Thirdly, in it's field, GoodyBurrett LLP operates a unique, Lexcel accredited practice. It's a member of the GLEAMED mediation providers and several of it's partners hold and have held intresting roles within the community. The company also offer services to Japanese clients in Japanese language. The company also has a long and varied history in the Colchester area, over 250 years, leading me to believe it would be of interest to potential wikipedia viewers. Further, I believe previous articles have not attempted such an in-depth and unbiased view of the company as could now be offered by users such as myself. I look forward to a reply.-Loz1234 (talk) 11:37, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why is everything else being answered except this??
Everyone here is a volunteer; in my limited time recently I have answered first those that could be done quickly. Yours needs a longer response, and here it is:
 Not done This article has been posted and deleted so many times that the title has been salted - protected against re-creation. It gave no indication of notability - just said that they were a firm of solicitors with offices in Colchester and Great Dunmow, and gave a long list of the things solicitors do. Wikipedia is not a business listing directory. If you want an article, what you should do is
  • Read WP:Notability. Note that it means showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Myspace, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. More detail in WP:Notability (organizations and companies) Think seriously about whether you can show that, because if not you will find that attempting to get this firm into Wikipedia will just be a frustrating waste of your time as well as ours. There are many worthy organizations that do not qualify to be in an encyclopedia, and that is not at all to their discredit.
  • Read the WP:FAQ/Organizations
  • Read WP:My first article
  • If you are connected with the firm, read WP:Conflict of interest and WP:BESTCOI
  • If you then want to go ahead, make a draft in your user space at User:Loz1234/GoodyBurrett LLP. If you ask, I will copy the deleted article there, but you will not find it much help. Make sure that your draft is not promotional in tone, cites independent references, and does not go into great detail of the kind that would be better on the firm's website than in an encyclopedia.
  • Post at WP:Requests for feedback to get advice from other users.
  • When you are ready, make a request at WP:Deletion review for the title to be unprotected. (Normally, the first step would be to contact the administrator who protected the title, but in this case he has retired).
With regard to the other sites you mention, the argument What about article x? is never accepted - each article is considered on its own merits.

Zishan Engineers

reasoning The website for Zishan Engineers is there and shows the list of projects that have been done till 2004 and the website up-gradation has started and would be completed with a couple of weeks time. Ottawa mentioned in his discussion that the website of the organization doesnt serve as a secondary source and only a primary source, then please check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nespak - Nespak Pakistan which only presents two references that are of its own site (no secondary sources). There are also many statements in that article that need citations for e.g the last sentence. This is common for numerous articles concerning pakistani companies (I can give you the article names too if you want) With these emerging pakistani companies and organizations its very hard to find secondary sources since the primary sources themselves (their own websites) are rare. I believe it is for this very reason why wikipedia launched WikiProject Pakistan to improve wikipedias coverage of pakistan realising the need to promote pakistan and that it is new into the internet world.

In all fairness, I feel that ZEL's article has more secondary sources and more notability ( even in its un updated website) than NESPAK(that article doesnt even have one) if you need a comparision, one can google both organizations and compare its notability. I dont see how ZEL is not as notable like NESPAK or other articles on pakistani organizations. I would request you to kindly restore the article please. -Uzairsyedahmed (talk) 22:35, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - As announced prominently at the top of the page, this process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially and has no applicability to articles deleted after any deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zishan Engineers (2nd nomination), asking here for any action is a waste of your time as it will not be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the consensus found at the discussion was in error, or that significant new information has come to light since the deletion, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Cirt (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.. Every article must stand or fall on its own merits, regardless of what other pages may exist and any problems they may have. DMacks (talk) 23:09, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

this page may have been deleted in error -Fahd (talk) 00:36, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify users Stormbay (talk · contribs) and Dlohcierekim (talk · contribs) who proposed it, in case they wish to nominate it at Articles for deletion. The article needs references from independent sources to establish notability. JohnCD (talk) 09:53, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lars Pearson

Lars Pearson is a notable publisher, editor, and writer, who has been producing media-tie in reference books and essay books for over a decade. One of the books from his press, Chicks Dig Time Lords, was featured on IO9.com this past week. He has worked with notable, Award-winning SF/F authors in his essay books, as well as numerous writers associated with Doctor Who, from both the classic and new series, and tie-in novels. You can find out more information about his publishing company Mad Norwegian Press at their website: www.madnorwegian.com. -Caitlinpapa (talk) 02:31, 7 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Kenilworth Terrace (talk · contribs), who proposed it, in case s/he wishes to take it to Articles for deletion. The article has a long list of books by Mr. Pearson, but what is needed to establish notability is references about him, showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."

Polar Tree

Genuinely useful article deleted

I have been using Wikipedia as a resource for many years, but this is the first time I've been motivated to contribute back.

This deleted data compression article is useful and interesting to anyone practicing the art. I have created data compression codecs that have shipped in tens of millions of products on Xbox 360/PS3/PS2/PC (and this is easily verified, as I am in the public credits for these titles) since 1993. Polar Coding is extremely useful - it is simpler to implement, results in less code, and is extremely fast. I cannot find a reference to the technique anywhere else. It's as least as useful and relevant as (say) these Wikipedia articles on ROLZ or Truncated binary coding:

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

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

I feel the Wikipedia deletion process has gone off the rails if these two articles stay, but an article on a useful technique such as this is deleted.

Nu Youth Systems

WARNING: you did not submit your request correctly!

You need to replace the "PageName" parameter of the template with the name of the page that you would like restored, spelled correctly, with proper case. Please click the "[edit]" link to the right, and replace the contents of this section with:

{{subst:refund|The name of the requested page|your reasoning for asking to undelete it}}

reasoning -Aske Jeppesen (talk) 06:24, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

My page was deleted by an admin called Kuru.

I would suggest he gets his administrator status removed immediately as I obviously has no idea what he is doing. I am writing an article about a company of importance called Nu Youth Systems and an important subject as well as adding viable references.

Undelete the page immediately
