Recreation of Pokernews.com Re-direct page

Hello MBisanz. Last Friday I reached out to User: Sirex98 seeking advice on changing Pokernews.com from a redirect page to having its own Article Page. User: Sirex98 suggested that it would be best to get community feedback on this topic through posting it at WP:DRV. After reading the policies and procedures for the Wikipedia’s Deletion Review I realized that I had to discuss the matter with the administrator that closed the discussion. I found that to be you and thought that I better contact you as soon as I could so here it goes.

I would like to bring back to discussion the consensus for the deletion of the pokernews.com article page. On December 7, 2008 the result of the discussion, found here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pokernews.com, was to set Pokernews.com as a redirect page to Tony G. However, today I’d like to state the case that after 5 years I think PokerNews no longer fails WP:WEB or WP:N and is suitable to have it's re-direct page re-created. I was able to find more sources that help prove that Pokernews.com can now act as a notable Wikipedia article page. If you can take a look at my account sandbox here, User:AthenasMuse/sandbox, you will see that I drafted an article for proposal. This article is now aided with many sources that verify Pokernews’ existence and high regard as a leader in news coverage for the poker industry. The article is cited with better reliable independent sources that include third-party sources such as: http://www.prweb.com/releases/2007/05/prweb525316.htm , http://www.24-7pressrelease.com/press-release/pokernewscom-releases-us-poker-room-and-instant-play-top-lists-198748.php , http://www.reviewjournal.com/inside-gaming/feds-eye-poker-champs-assets , http://www.wnd.com/markets/news/read?GUID=23446428 , http://www.igbaffiliate.com/events/igbaffiliateawards/winners-revealed-2013 .

I hope this can suffice as a more credible page than what was originally created. Please let me know what you think. Thank you.--AthenasMuse (talk) 20:37, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Looks fine to me, but I'm not specialist. Feel free to re-create it, but I can't promise others will be as open-minded. MBisanz talk 21:47, 27 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  • Sounds good, I'll give it a shot. Thank you for your help. --AthenasMuse (talk) 04:20, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Neptune Pine Smartwatch

Back in January, you guys deleted an article called "Neptune Pine" stating that it wasn't notable at the time. Now the said product has reached $270K in the first 3 days of its Kickstarter campaign, and the story has been covered by numerous media outlets such as FOX, Huffington Post, Globe & Mail, CBC, Global, TechCrunch, etc., especially regarding the founder, Simon Tian, a 19-year old college dropout that founded the company.

The page needs to be restored and content needs to be rewritten with recent sources. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Baclavalucas (talkcontribs) 07:48, 23 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The user on zh.wiki registered Landis in 2013, so he has a better claim to the name then you do. MBisanz talk 07:55, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations

Hi MBisanz! I placed a request on Wikipedia:Changing username/Usurpations page several days before, but without reply for over 2 weeks. My fomer contributions were under the name Jing-hai Huang, I used to want to put my contributions under that name in all wikis, but too many wikis to change. So could I get my contributions back under this original name Huangjinghai? If not, would you be so kind to simply close that request please?

Best wishes, and sorry for my poor English.--Huangjinghai (talk) 05:41, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Do not worry about your English, it is quite good. Sorry about the delay. I have processed the request. MBisanz talk 07:57, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you very much!--Huangjinghai (talk) 11:08, 1 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
