Wiki page deleted

You deleted the entry for Gorwel one of only three think tanks in the whole of Wales and the only one that is centre right, when the entry was just started.

Can you restore it and then view it again in a week once I have has time to put all the material on please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dmellor1 (talk • contribs) 22:26, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Wiki page deleted

Hi Nawlin

You nominated my page for speedy deletion. My page title was Pie-pacifique. The article was deleted while I was added references. Please help me assist me in adding this article.

Wiki page deleted

  • Hi Nawlin. I would like to include these links as reference for the wiki page(Echospawn_Studios). I hope I am posting this correctly as I am very new to this wiki creation, and it has been quite hard to understand all the processes. I just want to set up the wiki pages properly.

Link 1: http://unityassetreview.com/publishers/29429 Link 2: https://www.assetstore.unity3d.com/#publisher/5886 Link 3: http://www.echospawnstudios.com/ Link 4: https://www.facebook.com/EchoSpawnStudios Link 5: https://twitter.com/EchospawnStudio Link 6: http://www.linkedin.com/company/echospawn-studios

I am not sure what kind of references you are looking for but I hope this is enough. Please respond quickly so I can re create the wiki page.--NickLustig (talk) 07:07, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • The problem with all of these sources is that they were written or posted by the company itself. In other words, they're not independent. We require independent, third-party sources. Please read, carefully, WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:12, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Ok now I understand, I thought it meant credible sources of the actual information. I will find links of public reviews from third parties, because there have been several. --NickLustig (talk) 11:28, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Hello Nawlin, I am inquiring about the page recently created for Jennifer A. Borg. Can you kindly advise what changes need to be made so that this will be an acceptable entry? Thank you so much. :) MRWilt218 (talk) 15:38, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Nawlin, Just following up on this. I see the reason for deletion as: "..did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia." Can you please advise how to indicate this? Is there something separate to complete? Thank you for your help. MRWilt218 (talk) 17:37, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Price & Myers

Hello, I have updated the link on the Astley Castle Stirling Prize to one that lists all parties involved in the restoration and not just the architects. This, and many other awards won by the firm, is why the page is notable. Also note that Price & Myers is mentioned (and linked without a page) on multiple articles throughout Wikipedia. Pm12345678910 (talk) 13:59, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Well, (1) I can't read the article because it requires registration; (2) the article on the Stirling Prize specifically says "The RIBA Stirling Prize is awarded to "the architects of the building which has made the greatest contribution to British architecture in the past year." " (architects, not "architects and consulting engineers"); (3) even if the article you cited mentions Price & Myers as the consulting engineer on the castle, that's not really enough. You need to cite us to articles that describe Price & Myers itself. See WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:59, 4 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not certain precisely what passages you find in need of improvement, but if you can point them out; I'm happy to provide the relevant links - especially around this sentence "Some of the methods, language and analytical approach is borrowed from a precursor projects "Doing business" sponsored by the World Bank and WIPO "Start Up Academies" - which are cited with links. The original <no follow> links appear to have been deleted because those are intended for the references section (correct)? horizontal integration 23:46, 5 March 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cfelker (talk • contribs)

Reinstatement of Houghton International

Dear NawlinWiki,

I added the response below on 24th February but have not received a reply. I have made all the amends requested and as far as i am aware the current draft on my user page meets the criteria as stated below. I would be grateful if this could be resolved as a matter of urgency as its been over a month since my original contact.

Regards Cedric McMillan


Reinstatement of Houghton International

Dear NawlinWiki, Thank you for your feedback. I am somewhat confused as to why we do not meet the WP:CORP criteria as we now have 3 quality independent sources linking directly to the organisation; The Journal( national media),AEMT the international trade association and IPO, the UK patent authority.Is there a minimum number of references required as i have seen other organisations on Wikipedia with less than 3?

  • OK, so you have a writeup in a trade journal and one article in a local newspaper. That's arguably enough to prevent the article from being speedily deleted, but I still don't think it's sufficient under the criteria in WP:CORP. If you were to repost the article, I would not speedily delete it, but I would list it for a deletion discussion at WP:AFD to see what other editors think.

I believe you made a minor slip up. Duke Olav Otterson of Bornholm (talk) 20:32, 6 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Page Deleted from User Space

Hi Nawlin, you appear to have deleted a page from my userspace. Could you please restore it. Please note the page is an important resource for me and was userfied for a reason. A comment on my talk page would have been appreciated. Thank you. Affinemesh94464 (talk) 06:27, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please reinstate the article about WeatherTAP.

Deleted Page

Please restore page "Deon Levingston" as it is under construction. He is a significant name in the radio broadcasting industry, as the many sources provided showed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by LMSalandra (talk • contribs) 17:31, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Napier Enterprises

Hello, I believe you may have protected this article from being created due to repeated attempts that met WP:G11. That was over three years ago. I came across another attempt at WP:AfC, and it looked like a fitting stub. I found some good sources and moved the submission to Napier (company). I would like to Napier Enterprises to redirect there, if possible. Thanks! — MusikAnimal talk 00:52, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Tyler James Jacobs

Hello, I'm extremely confused on why the page, Tyler James Jacobs was deleted. it was marked as no list of why it was necessary, but a film maker holding large quantities of awards for short films and being rated Q and J's TV personality of the Year, is obvious reasoning for significance. Thank You. If you could help, Please Restore.

  • No, this is a high school/college amateur filmmaker posting multiple articles about himself and his films. See WP:V, WP:COI, WP:SPAM. NawlinWiki (talk) 19:59, 10 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Incorrect, My name is Jacob Hamm, i am a photographer in Oklahoma, i wrote the information about Tyler James Jacobs, who is yes, a student at Oklahoma Christian University, but Tyler is also holder of large short film awards and has been nominated for Q and J awards, which from the links you gave and the information above, show validity, weather you feel a person is an amateur or not, does not discount them being information people should be allowed to view. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, If a five year old were to write a book, and it got published, would you not put the book in an encyclopedia, because the child is an "amateur"? It remains the same, fact is fact and when a page has information one might look up with the proper references and information without exploiting itself as trying to "grab attention", then it is what it Wikipedia was first meant to be, a way for people to learn more about the world.

Question regarding your recent blocks

Why did you block User:Urrgh! it's an account? The block reason says disruptive editing but I do not see anything disruptive maybe other than the Shakugan no Shana edit, but the user apologized for the failure to understand WP:UCN and I don't think people are normally blocked for one mistake without even having the possibility to appeal (talk page blocked). Was it a misclick and you intended to block someone else? Negaternary (talk) 21:50, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Talk page access for 74.44.160.39

Hey Nawlin, I've been watching that IP for a little while and it is obvious that they will not be using his talk page for anything constructive. Is it possible to revoke their talk page access? -- LuK3 (Talk) 22:06, 11 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Reinstatement of Beer Auction Game

Permit me to disagree on the Speedy Deletion of the Beer Auction Game. You refer to A7, which explicitly excludes educational institutions when using A7. I therefore would like to state that you used A7 incorrectly for Speedy Deletion of a University content output. Also I disagree to Speedy Deletion which would not have been the proper way anyway in this context.

Therefore please reinstateBmwtroll (talk) 14:17, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    • without being to harsh, I understand what you say, but a quick excuse that you did not pay attention to the educational institution issue in A7 would have been a nice sign as well. Now you bring A11 and later in your sentence you talk about proven sources about notability. A11 has nothing to do with notability but only significance or importance (clearly either of them). Notability is explicitly put at a higher level. Why are you bringing in levels personally which are not in the guidelines? When you look at Wikipedia:Credible claim of significance and read 1-6 it contradicts what you are writing. Therefore please reinstate Bmwtroll (talk) 14:46, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
        • A7 does not apply and A11 does not require sources. Nevertheless two separate sources have been included from the very beginning at the bottom. Permit me to say, I still believe this is acting outside the boundaries of Wiki rules. Please reinstate and still you can propose it for deletion in the proper way where I believe your arguments do not hold up Bmwtroll (talk) 15:03, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The first source is a blog (yours?) that describes the game. The second is the university's own site. Neither satisfies WP:V. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:05, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • The first Website is a cooperate website of a 500 Mio. Euro company with an editorial desk where such topics are regularly published. And yes, certainly I have access to this company. But it passes the editorial desk. Nevertheless this does not justify that you apply A7 and A11 incorrectly in my eyes. So please give a final yes or no to my original request - Please reinstate and still you can propose it for deletion in the proper way where I believe your arguments do not hold up - so I can place my complaint through the alternative channels Bmwtroll (talk) 15:15, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion review for Beer Auction Game

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Beer Auction Game. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Bmwtroll (talk) 15:40, 12 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Page The Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation has been speedily deleted

Hi Nawlin

You nominated my page for speedy deletion. My page title was The Guthy-Jackson Charitable Foundation. The article was deleted after I finished creating it because it did not indicate how or why the subject is notable. I wrote about the basic information of our foundation which funds basic science research for Neuromyelitis Optica (NMO). Please help me in making sure the article is improved so it can be included in Wikipedia.

Filter 31

Any way that this one can avoid the problem of disallowing changes that include Chinese characters (which I presume is the problem here?). Cheers, Black Kite (talk) 11:44, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My recent changes to Daniil Kharms were identified as potentially unconstructive. Since I cannot see Filter 31 myself, I used trial and error to check my changes in (see Special:AbuseLog for 72.244.204.73). It took a while to figure out that adding a section called "Death in prison" was the problem, even though Daniil Kharms did die in prison. Calling Filter 31 an "ASC art" filter was not helpful. Clearly some higher purpose is being served by filter 31, but even after I figured out what I did to cause the filter to block my edit, I'm not sure what I should be doing to avoid that filter in the future. Is the phrase "Death in prison" really the issue? Please reply at User talk:72.244.204.73#Death in prison. Thanks. 72.244.204.73 (talk) 22:29, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Tomato (company)

It appears as though you deleted the new page I created for Tomato (company). May I ask why? The page was newly created to remove any subjectivity -- just statements of fact -- supported by a plethora of verifiable outside references. Please advise on your reasons, and if there is specific content you find objectionable. Thank you. Quiller1970 (talk) 19:55, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I've gotten myself involved in this already, so I'll explain over at my talk page. SmartSE (talk) 20:14, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Some protected redirects need categorization

It looks like you've protected quite a few redirects with log summaries similar to "no reason to move or edit redirect without discussion." The problem is that, while this may make sense for the target of the redirect, the lack of redirect categorization templates on many of these redirects does technically give a reason to edit them. For example, Windows 3.1 (redirect=no) should be {{r from subtopic}}, and Hanging, drawing and quartering (redirect=no) should be {{r from modification}}.

The reason I didn't just use {{edit protected}} is that I wanted to discuss the possibility of unprotecting such redirects; I'm sure there are many more in question. Unfortunately, there isn't yet a database report for protected uncategorized redirects.

I don't know whether it's still the consensus to protect mainspace redirects indefinitely for a single incident of vandalism or edit warring, even if no banned user or long-term abuser is suspected. --SoledadKabocha (talk) 01:13, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • These are based on spates of pagemove vandalism by a longterm banned abuser from about 4-5 years ago. I am fine with unprotecting them at this point - let me know which ones you are talking about. NawlinWiki (talk) 12:50, 15 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Just the two I mentioned above would be fine for now, until I have time to examine further. --SoledadKabocha (talk) 00:49, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Both changed to semis. NawlinWiki (talk) 02:20, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
For the record, I have asked about the possibility of a database report: WT:Database reports#Fully-protected uncategorized redirects. --SoledadKabocha (talk) 00:18, 19 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Scawfell redirect will need to change soon

I thought I should contact you as the creator of the redirect page for Scawfell. I have been working on a draft article for the record-breaking Tea Clipper of this name. Once this goes live, I will need to change the redirect. Clearly it would be appropriate to have a disambiguation note at the top of the article about the ship that can take you to Sca Fell (the mountain). It is also an opportunity to allow navigation to Scawfell Island, part of South Cumberland Islands National Park. Any thoughts on this? At present the draft article is set up to send the user to a disambiguation page - but it's probably better to put this all at the top of the new article. (Incidentally, the draft article has quite a lot of work left to do.)ThoughtIdRetired (talk) 11:43, 17 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
