Just in case anyone wants to talk to me.... Peridon (talk) 20:42, 18 May 2008 (UTC) Back numbers of this magazine can be found at: User talk:Peridon/Archives/2008/November User talk:Peridon/Archives/2009/May User talk:Peridon/Archives/2010/February User talk:Peridon/Archives/2010/January[reply]

The rest of this is archived somewhere. There's a nice little bot comes in and tidies up. (Could do with one at home...) Not quite sure where it puts the stuff, but I'm working on it... Meantime, copy one of the above and change the date to suit - or look at the little archive box that Jean Calleo gave me.

Please add messages at the bottom of the page so I can find them. Thanks. Do put a heading inside == == and sign with ~~~~. If you don't get a reply from me (or one of the stalkers...) within a reasonable time, you've probably not read this. If you have read it and ignored it, it's your own fault. If you haven't read it, READ IT NOW. Another reason to post at the bottom is that if you post at the top and someone else posts at the bottom, I'll see their message, but won't suspect there's another. Up to you. Ignore this if you want. Just don't blame me.

S K News Portal

Why did you delete the page S K News Portal? For what reason? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Prince.aliabbas (talkcontribs) 19:06, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Unambiguous advertising. One small bit saying what it is, and a lot telling people how to get it. Sorry, but that's not what Wikipedia is for. This is an encyclopaedia, not a directory. You have to show that the subject is of note (see WP:CORP and/or WP:WEB and prove it with references (WP:RS. You cannot use your own site to show notability, nor any blogs, forums or wikis, or places like PRWire or AboutUs. If you can do this, contact a regular editor or admin and ask for an opinion.

The Signpost: 02 July 2012

Sparlock

No, Sparlock is not a toy. It doesn't exist. It is a metafictional plot device in a cartoon. The article is ostensibly a commentary about the Watch Tower Society. To clarify, the only exposure the fictional character has had has been on web forums after unauthorised exposure of the character on youtube, and a subsequent meme that has not had coverage in reliable sources. Web content falls well within the applied speedy deletion criteria.--Jeffro77 (talk) 12:10, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I understood it was on DVD - which doesn't come under A7. As it seems contentious, I'd recommend AfD for it. Peridon (talk) 17:51, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps. But the DVD isn't about Sparlock. As far as the subject of the DVD goes, the fictional toy is nothing more than an ancillary plot device. The purported significance of the fictional toy itself is purely the result of an internet meme, and certainly unintended by the producers of the film.--Jeffro77 (talk) 08:08, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sasson Sarooei

Why did you delete page on Sasson Sarooei? The article was well-written and was for a notable person, with many contributions in field of IT. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.178.89.214 (talk) 11:29, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Did I? Can't remember the name or find it under that title. I'll look again. Peridon (talk) 17:53, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Looked back through a month of my deletions (about 500) and didn't see it. If you post here while signed in, I can find it in your deleted contributions (assuming you were the author). Being well written doesn't come into speedy deletion. The main reasons I delete are advertising and/or lack of shown significance. That's by our definitions, by the way.

This is the page: Sasson Sarooei — Preceding unsigned comment added by 182.178.52.145 (talk) 05:02, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Sorry, I can't see notability. I can see a highly promotional piece about someone who is marketing some software (which has no references to show that that is notable either). Please read WP:SPAM about advertising, WP:NPOV about neutral point of view, WP:BIO about biographies (and if applicable, WP:AUTOBIO as well), and WP:RS about the reliable independent sources needed to prove any claims of notability. As it stood, the whole article looked as if it had come straight from a PR department or other advertising place. Peridon (talk) 10:01, 5 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Joke and Dagger

Are you really sure this is a good search term for Spy vs. Spy? How? --PRProgRock (talk) 19:00, 7 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
