Welcome. Please note that this page is NOT for challenging the outcome of deletion discussions nor to address the pending deletion of any page.
Shortcuts

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 "articles for 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 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.

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 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 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.

C-Loc Present Camp III: Thug Brothas

reasoning i wish to have the article undeletion because the article is the offical complication album by rapper Lil Boosie and C-Loc (Concentration Camp) this album & youngest of the camp landed him to be sign with Trill Entertainment -Loso1993 (talk) 04:45, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have asked the deleting admin to comment here. JohnCD (talk) 21:52, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The main group of the article is C-Loc which is apparently deleted (to my surprise as I see it meeting GNG). Just because Boosie was part of the group doesn't mean the album is notable, and as long as the C-Loc article is deleted and the album shows it meets WP:GNG I'm not going to restore it. But if someone willing to userfy, that's fine with me. Secret account 04:50, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Angolans in Brazil

The only discussion of deleting it (then as "Angolan Brazilian" – I would remember that one of the reasonings is that it is a rather problematic term as according to the English usage we are >70% of the country, both me and my parents could be Angolan Brazilians by the given definition even if our phenotypes can perfectly match French [only me], Portuguese or Romanian according to Europeans themselves) took place in 2008. One of the reasonings was that it was another ethnic plus Brazilian term that isn't recognized in Brazil society, and a lot of the hyphenated Brazilian categories we see now – such as much less known Barbadian, Latvian and Icelander – weren't created yet.

One of those users that frequently edit articles on hyphenated nationals re-created it with an adequate title. It was nice, and the <2000 figure of Angolan Brazilians given by the source is way far off. They only need a year in the country to be naturalized AFAIK, speak a dialect of Portuguese extremely close to ours, have a deal of cultural contact with us by media, and are the African group to arrive by illegal immigration to the most though easily mantain themselves invisible. Like, I have an Angolan neighbor, and I live in the middle of nowhere, it is a frequent sight. There's a lot of them in Rio de Janeiro and Niterói, they are about as recognizable as the Koreans here (though less than the Chinese). Brazilians aren't concerned with illegal immigration – we have a mentality that we shouldn't be, we immigrate at least tenfold more than we receive immigrants over the past 5 decades, further we would need U.S. American numbers for about 4 or 5 years for them to become a reasonable percent of the population –, we mostly lack true Western-style right-wing politics, the only bigger force of this are the Evangelicals with their social conservative issues but then they don't mind poor people, so in recent years after the earthquake Haitians arrived in the thousands and hundreds of them were granted naturalization just by arriving at the frontier and before we could learn how to pronounce "Pórt-ôo-Prrénss" everybody already forgot what happened.

But then it got deleted again by the reasonings of 2008 that really don't apply anymore. Angolans are among the most visible groups of immigrants and expatriates here (apart of being part of the few that are [relatively] recent), much more than other hyphenated Brazilians with even poorer articles. -Lguipontes (talk) 12:48, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No comment? Ok, here goes a source: http://pt.globalvoicesonline.org/2013/04/03/brasil-ira-deter-o-novo-curso-da-imigracao/ "O Brasil abriga cerca de 4.500 refugiados de 75 países, a maior parte deles vindos de Angola e Colômbia." The figures shown in the Angolans in Brazil article count legal immigrants only, not an estimate of all of the number of Angolans here including illegal immigrants and refugees.

Betterfly

I think the article was deleted as the noteable point was not prominent - the noteable point being that Betterfly is the company responsable for the innovation of Verbal Aikido - an increasingly popular form of conflict management. Maybe I should include the Newspaper reference, but it is in French and as I'm not quite sure yet how to create an article in another language, or link two articles about the same think in different languages... Maybe you could point me in the right direction. Many thanks -Frogmaneo (talk) 17:05, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles about companies. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning companies will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. Well the article was within speedy criteria when deleted with three sources LinkedIn, Facebook, and some blog like source none of which are acceptable sources, see our criteria in reliable sourcing and WP:GNG. I could move it to your userspace to work on the article, or better yet go though articles for creation where a better review would happen. Secret account 04:59, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Union_Square_Ventures

This venture capital firm page was deleted for Unambiguous advertising or promotion (G11) because the body listed the investments it has made. The firm exists to make investments, so its investments are part of what make it notable. -NYC Avidya (talk) 11:47, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Holistic management

I had it Userfied User:Redddbaron/Holistic_management and have completely rewritten it in a way that I hope will be up to wiki standards. It was deleted per the discussion. In the process of rewriting it, I did receive messages from 2 people that agreed there should be an article, it's just that the original article was very poor and did deserve to be deleted.(I didn't write the first one) They have been guiding me along with advise, since this is my first article for Wiki (although I have made anonymous very minor edits for years, before I ever had a wiki account.

Roberto A Dabdoub

Roberto A Dabdoub not a Microbiologist. His contributions has been in the area of Photography, Phomicroscopy and Electrophotography, more specific in the early colorization of human chromosomes in Cytogenetics. His early research with fluorescent insitu hybridization and digital photomicroscopy helped many doctors and scientists. He developed a technique to identify DNA fragments and subsequently into the genome project. he is a Photographer who used scientific methods to make art and to show the world the beautiful side of medicine, using a very simple light microscope. I am not sure how electrophotography, a somewhat controversial subject was incorporated into his photomicroscopy. No one has done this before. This was highly revolutionary. He produced very unique images. One of the reason he has been included in NOMA, and had a solo exhibit at the Contemporary Arts Center All I can said, Dr Dabdoub's work it's truly revolutionary, perhaps in the tradition of Man Ray and others. Here in my desk, I have several scientific publications and hundreds of newspapers articles from reliable sources. I'll be glad to provide more documentation if you feel it's needed. Again, this article should not be classified in the area of Microbiology. He is an Artist and a scientist. A photographer whos work showed a connection between science and art. For over three decades his work has been a source of inspiration for budding scientists across the globe. Over a millions neckties, labeled with his name were made. Procedures of the sale went to cancer research. The first time images taken under the microscope were used in the fashion industry. Other followed later perhaps, but he paved the road. -Hr1kb5 (talk) 04:38, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Richard McIver

Seattle politician, recently deceased. Deleted as non-notable (and the article wasn't much as it stood) but he served 3 terms (12 years) on the Seattle City Council (which has only 9 members, all elected citywide rather than from districts, so anyone on the council is elected in a district with half a million people). One of less than half a dozen African-Americans ever to serve on the Council. I think he's notable, the article was a perfectly good start, and should be restored as a basis to expand. -Jmabel | Talk 04:23, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. Yunshui 雲‍水 10:06, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done - As announced at the top of the page, 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 at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Global Network for the Forecasting of Earthquakes (2nd nomination), 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 RegentsPark (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. Yunshui 雲‍水 10:04, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DNS Service Discovery

I am not sure why this article was deleted. DNS-SD is one of three Zero Config technologies, each of which stands on its own and is defined by a separate RFC. The other two have their own Wikipedia articles, this one currently doesn't. IMHO, all articles relating to Zero Config need some work, which I anticipate doing, but they cannot be consistently structured unless this article is restored. -Joeldbenson (talk) 13:37, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done This was the article: "DNS service discovery is a sort of protocol used by Apple. In a nutshell, it puts SRV records in a DNS server.", and it was deleted in 2007 (the older versions were just links). I'd say better to write a new sourced article.

Camp Quest

Page was speedily deleted as G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion, however I do not see how it can fit into that definition, and how it can be considered exclusively promotional as G11 states. -CitiCat ♫ 04:02, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have undeleted it (before seeing this), I came across it when cleaning up redirects to deleted pages. A page with an 8 year history and over 240 edits should rarely, if ever, be speedy deleted as G11 promotional. If necessary, it can be reverted to an older version, rewritten, or taken to AfD.

Talk:Toki Pona/Archive 1

This talk page archive was deleted at a time when Toki Pona had been deleted. There is a deleted redirect to the archive called Talk:Toki Pona/Archive1, which is also linked to from Talk:Toki Pona; as this conforms to the current standard format for talk page archive titles, this should be the goal for the restoration. -Florian Blaschke (talk) 10:19, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

 Done - I have done it as you asked, since the other archive from that page is "Archive2", but in fact the format described in Help:Archiving a talk page has the space between "Archive" and number. JohnCD (talk) 17:40, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! Whoops, I missed that. Damn. I'd have asked to restore it to the original title (with space) then and move the other archive accordingly. Oh well, I dunno, perhaps you'd like to do that still, anyway, but it's not that important. --Florian Blaschke (talk) 21:37, 11 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
OK, both moved to titles with spaces. I didn't leave redirects: you might do "What links here" from the old titles in case any links need updating, but I doubt it. JohnCD (talk) 11:48, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Nikki Awesome & The Royal Society

The article was deleted under section A7 however there is sufficient appropriate material supporting its notability after the removal of sources such as YouTube that should still make the article relevant. The band did have a Canadian top 10 and top 20 in radio and video and the lead singer has gone on to perform under another name.

 Not done. What you wrote was an advertisement from the centre: "we support each other's dreams... We work together... more things are constantly being added for people to use and make awesome stuff... everyone is invited to all of our events and meetings... " Wikipedia does not allow promotion, even of non-profit organizations. An encyclopedia article should be about the centre, in neutral terms, not trying to boost it; also, it needs references to significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources to establish notability.

Bonsai Trading

I did originally create this page for my own store, as a form of promotion, so it was removed correctly, I realise that. However, the store has been closed for over 5 years, so now that there is no commercial benefit to myself, I'd like Bonsai Trading to reclaim it's role in Discworld Merchandising History with a more appropriate page. An L-space (Authorative Discworld Site) page mentioning my store can be found here http://www.lspace.org/merchandise/videos-and-dvds.html and there are favourable mentions of the store and it's products online (many which were custom designed and sold exclusively by myself). The store can be seen listed with others who have Wiki pages here http://www.oocities.org/area51/1777/links.html. I am unfamiliar with the ways I should best go about this - but am willing to read up and ensure I produce a page as appropriate as possible. My main desire is to get the mention on the Discworld article that currently links to a dead page working again. I'm open to advice of course as to whether I should in fact be creating a listing for Myself as a merchandise creator (ala Bernard Pearson) rather than the Store (ala Clarecraft) -John Pagan (talk) 12:06, 15 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
