New Orioles Yankees rivalry

Hi there. I saw that you had mentioned that there was a previous attempt at an Orioles-Yankees rivalry article. In the previous deletion description, users agreed that the article lacked reliable sources speaking of the rivalry. However, I made another attempt at the article because I found more reliable sources and listed them because of it. Was the reason why you turned it down solely because there was a failed attempt in the past? I just was curious as to what more would be needed to make it into an article. Thanks for your help. Arnabdas (talk) 16:17, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

  • Possibly not wise to start the article by referring to the previous AfD discussion - better to keep schtum about that! I also deleted it because it was empty - but that was wrong since it was in draft: space. It is more than four year since the AfD decision. So I have restored it. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 17:09, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
Yes, RHaworth, you are. Arnabdas contributed to the AfD discussion he points to, which means he should've accepted its outcome.--Launchballer 17:14, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
You asked a question in your edit summary. It was that which I was answering.--Launchballer 21:40, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Request for comment

Deletion

Ok fine, go and delete the subpages of NN4. But please let just the non-subpage pages be there because it is a form of short form. And anyway, just delete the shortcuts of all the things (in my subpages). Thanks! Don't delete the User:NN4 and User talk:NN4. It applies to User:I dream of horses too, she just use User:IDoH as short form. What's wrong with that? --NN4 | Any thoughts? Pen 'em down here! | No Editcountitis! 09:50, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Arrow

You deleted an article and provided A7 as the reasoning behind it. However, ARROW is a standard system created under directive from the European Parliament and Council to store and organize information about copyright and is not any of the things listed under A7. Please provide clarification. As you may be aware (I'm assuming you read the article since you deleted it), the process of cataloging is very time intensive. You may also be aware of the existence of the Virtual International Authority File and how that has an article of its own. Since ARROW serves a similar purpose to VIAF, I do not understand why one has an article and the other doesn't. --Llehsadam (talk) 20:45, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

  • You claim that VIAF has an article but contradict yourself by providing a red link! A7 requires an indication of importance and it is felt that you have not provided such indication. If you can create a version with with decent references, raise the matter at deletion review. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:23, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

It's red because I included "the" in the link by accident. Fixed it. The article is not important enough for me personally to raise the issue any further. Someone who knows more on the issue of orphan works and how that affects digitization of public databases will figure it out eventually. I think it was disdainful to delete it on such short notice. --Llehsadam (talk) 21:32, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Wow, now that article is proposed for deletion... rough day. --Llehsadam (talk) 21:55, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

my deleted page

Hi, I'm sorry I didn't know I couldn't use my user page to communicate pretty-printed text to friends. It is some useful information on how to build CLANG/LLVM compiler on windows with visual studio, it's not spamming of anything else. I used wikipedia as a notebook and as a document writer this afternoon, because I prefer typing text on wikipedia than on microsoft word, and I let it there because I didn't know I couldn't.

I read Wikipedia:NOTWEBHOST and I understand I was wrong, but about the deletion without pre-notification, the size of the datas wasn't so large, maybe 500 lines of text ? Is there a way to retrieve the content and the source code ? I don't have any copy of this, and it represents 4 hours of work ! Thank you in advance and sorry again, R. Acx01b (talk) 22:05, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Silent Criminal Records

The deletion of this page should be reversed as I do not feel it was a mis-representation and it was in fact relevant as the company had just been formed SCRecords (talk) 23:20, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

So what! That the company has just been formed makes it doubly as likely to be non-notable. Kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no COI decides to write about the company. -- Launchballer 23:24, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

See the extended rant hatted at [1] and an IP edit today[2] which I think I will delete as off-topic forum stuff. Could be coincidence of course. But it looks like the account's stuff. Dougweller (talk) 17:08, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

And this edit by the IP[3] is the same sort of stuff the account's been adding. Dougweller (talk) 17:10, 29 May 2014 (UTC)

Howard Charles Fraser Riddle

I don't understand why Howard Charles Fraser Riddle was deleted ('under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant') as Riddle holds the office of Chief Magistrate in the UK government. There is only one Chief Magistrate. He is head of the UK government office of Chief Magistate, with a large staff and an important role in the administration of justice in the UK. — Preceding unsigned comment added by DerFreischutz2014 (talk • contribs)

Hi. Just wanted to drop a line and thank you for the speedy delete of St Lawrence's GAA, Manchester and ask if you could close the related Afd?

Is it standard Admin practice

…to allow, and even encourage (through absence of correction) another, presumably nonidentical User/editor/persona to reply, repeatedly, to administrative business-related queries that are directed to you, RHaworth, at this User Talk page? Or are RHaworth and Launchballer one and the same, or otherwise connected in their administrative practices here? Curious if this is standard practice that I just have missed—admins having editor-understudies handling their correspondence. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 20:19, 27 May 2014 (UTC)

Perhaps Launchballer is not in fact his understudy, but his supervisor! After all, RHaworth needs someone to whom he can defer, when someone asks to speak to someone of such rank. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 20:20, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
  • I have no objection to talk page stalkers answering on my behalf. If they say anything with which I disagree, I will resond appropriately.
We have a very firm rule: no legal threats. I hasten to say that I have not seen you make any actual legal threats but you have made numerous threats such as this one. These may be just as disturbing to their recipients as legal threats. You said here "blocks, and threats of blocks, are last resorts in modifying editor behaviour here, are they not?" But apparently you consider only slightly less serious threats to be perfectly OK. If you see actions which you deem inappropriate, by all means "forward them to an Admin page" (or take other action as you see fit) without any warning. But kindly cease and desist from simply issuing threats. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:34, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

Your 6th form protege's activities are, minimally, non-standard; more accurately, unhelpful; and likely, when discussion is raised about it more formally, against WP policy. If this overall surmise is correct, then you are abetting this dysfunctional behavior by a young editor. So, I present no defense of the statement made to him to "heed" (or any statements with which you take umbrage). Formal warnings at WP are a standard part of practice at WP, and informal cautionings all the more. (Contrary your seeming perspective to act or denigrate without warning, letting chips fall where they may.)

In this case, the only reason I haven't already "call[ed] others' attention to" his responding, as a 6th form editor to an Admins queries, since he has not heeded the call to desist, is that I view you as the primary problem, and he the simply misguided junior (in your strange relationship). If I can find a way to constructively redirect this, I will; if not, I will not sacrifice him in any vindictive effort toward you. (Even if I were disposed to such, to you alone—which I am not, as you are simply a source of wonder and amusement to me here—I would not hurt another in process.) Such personal disregard of others is, seemingly, your bailiwick. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 01:48, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

European Association for Biometrics

I believe you recently deleted an article I created for the European Association for Biometrics. I would like to have a copy of the deleted article please. Also I would urge you to reconsider deletion of this article. Articles of similar organizations are allowed on Wikipedia: for example Biometrics Institute. Please let me know should you require further information. Best wishes, Farzin — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikifarzin (talk • contribs)

Looks like my school contacted Biometric Institute to get biometrics installed there. They will not be best pleased with my take on the article.
The creator of Biometrics Institute, Izzy67, was once blocked over username concerns; she used to be Biometricsinstitute. The article has been around for almost six years and I can see nothing there that explains why it should have a Wikipedia article. In addition, sections 3 and 4 are unreferenced and smell distinctly advertish. Now being considered at AfD.--Launchballer 22:37, 30 May 2014 (UTC)

Your opinion?

Delete? Keep? Unblank? [4] I don't think IP's can have subpages FWIW. --NeilN talk to me 01:05, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

As it has been blanked it can be speedied under WP:G7.--Launchballer 09:45, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
  • This pages serves a very useful, and I say necessary, purpose of tying together the IP address contributions by this user - who has explicitly indicated a desire to tie IP address edits to logged-in edits. Even as a blank page, it serves a useful purpose as long as the incoming links are still there.
I have seen nothing to forbid subpages [[user talk:IP address/]]. Besides, if you are going to delete it on those grounds, you will have to delete the more extensive page which ties together my IP address edits. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:52, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

Uniagonal deletion

Not the first with the idea of the term uniagonal, see this. The term has been discussed before, it's not pseudo-science it's an actual state. Also, your own policies state if the idea has significance and is credible, which if a state exists it is credible, that it's not supposed to be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Steihl (talk • contribs)

Jabari Parker's high school career

Why did you revert ThaddeusB who granted my userfication request as an WP:AFD decision? He was well aware of the AFD. -- TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 19:07, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

I have not been admin shopping. After Floquenbeam went offline for 3 days, I randomly chose 10 admins to make the request with. I chose 10 starting with the letter T because of my ID. 10 was just because "you don't know how many have retired, gone on wikibreaks, have no interest in the issue, etc". I think it is admin shopping to chose someone already predisposed one way or the other like Ivanvector (talk · contribs). Shouldn't you choose someone neutral rather than someone I am already bickering with. -- TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 20:52, 31 May 2014 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Why, then, do I see posts to the talk pages of Titoxd, Thespian, ThaddeusB, Tawker, The Placebo Effect, Thehelpfulone, Thingg, Tijuana Brass, Toon05 and TParis in your contributions history - all of which were made within mere seconds of one another? -- Launchballer 21:07, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
  • What an admission! Asking ten admins is admin shopping with a vengeance! AfD 1 and AfD 2 both closed with "delete" decisions. Since userspace is only for stuff that stands a chance in mainspace, there is absolutely no point in userfying the article. It is as simple as that. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:25, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
    • Like I said that was because "you don't know how many have retired, gone on wikibreaks, have no interest in the issue, etc". I could have asked one single admin who I am friends with, but I did not think that would be any fairer than asking one who was already predisposed against. There is no rule that "userspace is only for stuff that stands a chance in mainspace". My bio is in userspace and has survived Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:TonyTheTiger/Antonio Vernon (2nd nomination). This is a userfication request to enable me to become a better editor by understanding policy and guidelines. It appears that you have reverted another admin because you don't understand the rules (if you think it has to have a chance to be in mainspace).--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:31, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
      • This is getting utterly ridiculous. Tony, you do not need a user copy of this article to "become a better editor by understanding policy and guidelines", and I doubt anyone paying attention to this drama is naïve enough to believe this is your true intention. Certainly Floquenbeam saw through the charade, and he wasn't the only one. This is all about trying to save this fork on a subject that you have, to be perfectly blunt, an unhealthy obsession with. And I can predict at least one (if not multiple) trips to ANI in your future when you continue this forum shopping by trying to turn "policy discussions" into unofficial DRVs. Resolute 22:49, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
        • Resolute, If you honestly believe what you say I am sure you would accept an offer to delete the userfication if at any point I am not using it investigating policy.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 23:13, 31 May 2014 (UTC)
          • I closed the AN in the hope you would get the hint and drop it for your own good. If you want to discuss or learn policy, go to policy talkpages. Or the help/reference desks. There is absolutely no need for this content in your userspace as multiple people have told you in multiple venues. If you are unwilling to listen to people when they advise you of something, you run the risk of being topic banned from the subject. Only in death does duty end (talk) 00:53, 1 June 2014 (UTC)
            • Only in death, Since you may not have noticed the multiple instances in the AN discussion where the unavailablility of history caused confusion and you are certain the histories are not necessary for my intended discussions, would you be willing to userfy them when it becomes obvious that their unavailability is causing further confusion?--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:03, 1 June 2014 (UTC)

Hello,I reali appreciated your contributions on wikipedia.

Tia Singh

I had no COI when I wrote the article about Tia Singh. I found out that the article was deleted because Wikipedia found it as a promotional material/spam and don't have encyclopedic value. I believe that it happened because of the lack of substantial references to hold my article . I was not deeply aware of Wikipedian policies while I wrote this article, hence I do agree that it was a mistake from my side. I am looking forward to become a serious Wikipedian and can't risk my account getting suspended. If you check the other articles, you can see that I've given enough references that meet Wikipedia standards. So a new article won't be written about Tia Singh until I find proper references that follow Wikipedia standards. — AbyJohn1991

  • @Abyjohn1991: I assure you that you are a long way from having your account suspended. Creating a few non-notable bios is harmless. What matters is how you react when they get deleted. See Olatunde olalekan isaac for an extreme example of someone who has kept pushing the same nn-bio again and again!
You came under attack from 117.214.28.134 (talk) (based in India). They had a 50% success rate. The ones that got deleted are: Thais Lopes, Tara Wheeler, O Malli, 46 Mommas and Tia Singh. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 14:48, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Insight E

Hi RHaworth, I hope this finds you well. I am emailing in regards to the deletion of the INSIGHT_E page, which was about a European-wide energy research programme. I received a message from JacobiJonesJr on 1 June that the page had been deemed promotional and needed to be amended or it would be queued for speedy deletion. I revised the article later on 1 June and removed "the principles" section which might have contained unnecessary information about the conceptual purpose of the project. I then sent a reply to JacobiJonesJr on the talk page about the amendments and asked if the article was now suitable for Wikipedia. I did not receive a reply and instead the page has just been deleted.

I would be most grateful if you could let me know how I can rectify this problem and create a page that meets Wikipedia's criteria. Here is the original link to the page: Insight E. Any guidance would be most appreciated. Very Best, Matthew Reading-Smith — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.39.171.60 (talk) 10:45, 2 June 2014 (UTC)

Please read this (which contains WP policies, rather than just personal statements): As a user, despite being an administrator, you are required to follow WP policies. It is against policy to deny editors working from IP addresses the ability to edit, whatever your personal feelings on the matter might be. Please see WP:IP, where it states "Contributors… identified by their IP address… may… edit pages that are not protected or semi-protected."
You are also expected to lead in your discourse with other Users, "by example"; per the administrative conduct section, "Administrators should strive to model appropriate standards of courtesy and civility to other editors and to one another… if an administrator finds that he... cannot adhere to site policies and remain civil (even toward users exhibiting problematic behavior) while addressing a given issue, then the administrator should bring the issue to a noticeboard or refer it to another administrator to address, rather than potentially compound the problem by poor conduct." Italics added. Last friendly encouragement (or moan, if you will). Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 16:22, 3 June 2014 (UTC)
Where in the moan RHaworth links to does it deny IPs editing rights? Of course they can edit this page - my reading of it asks them to state what their relationship to the article is. Not difficult.--Launchballer 16:43, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Obviously, you are the one who hasn't done their research since each of the following websites include information about Mr. Cook being the mayor of the CITY of Mansfield. [non-talk stuff deleted] You tell me to wait for someone else to do the bio, but the point of me submitting this draft was to get this done soon and not have to wait on someone else to take care of it.

And you what, feed somehow, on this admin's approval/encouragement of the same? You twins really are the LCD of this place. You are like cats playing with their food. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 01:52, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
Ms Cook, there is a serious conflict of interest (COI) that is against Wikipedia policy that you will not be able to circumvent here if the commonality of your last name with the article subject implies what it seems to imply. Click here to further explore [5].
Someone without an apparent COI has to write about the title individual, and when they do, it has to be neutral, and well-sourced (reputable news sources, print and/or online, no self-generated autobiographical material). You will not succeed otherwise, even with sympathetic and more cordial editors, and for having failed once, the second submission will generally receive greater scrutiny.
There is no recourse in discussion here, with RH-LB, or elsewhere, if there is (as seems) a close relationship between those submitting and the subject. (However, you and the title personage, both joining Wikipedia, could both hang out together and tag-team browbeat naive, new editors with abandon. That is apparently allowed.) In any case, apologies that you could not get such a plain English answer from this seemingly plain English pair of attached [6] editors. They really are civil, truly ethical, utterly independent-thinking, experienced Users. They just sprang fully formed from a union of Lyssa and Donal (it is rumoured), and so have difficulty in entering into the mere mortal early Wikipedia experiences of others. Cheers, best wishes.

Biophysiotherapy

I was reading an interesting article about biofisioterapia (in Spanish) and I've tried to read it in English to share the concept with my North-American and European colleagues, but the link seems to be deleted (biophysiotherapy). It looks that there is a copyright problem but I've seen that the page you refer (a wordpress page) is open or public license or something similar (Creative Commons), so I don't understand why I can't read the page in Wikipedia. As a MD&Ph, specialized in ESWT, I found BioPhysioTherapy an interesting concept (and the page in Spanish provides an accurate approach). BioPhysioTherapy starts to be known in LatinAmerica and I've heard about it even in an international medical congress, so I would like to discuss with you, with the due respect, why you don't allow to create a Wikipedia page. Of course, I appreciate your work controlling the quality of the content, but I wanted to talk with my international colleagues about the concept to prepare the next Shock Waves international congress, and I couldn't, because the page was deleted and I can read just in Spanish and Catalan... why not in more languages? . Thanks. -- Traumatologo-Rehabilitador (talk) 19:46, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

If you can read that article, why not translate it into English and write the article here?

Even if the copyvio situation were to be fixed the article would still be likely to fail on the grounds of lack of notability. But if you can provide good sound references, preferably in English, then you could try again. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:20, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Hi. As I explained when I contest the speedy deletion of biophysiotherapy, I own http://biophysiotherapy.wordpress.com and I included the text "The text of this website is available for modification and reuse under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-Sharealike 3.0 Unported License and the GNU Free Documentation License" as requested in Wikipedia:Donating_copyrighted_materials. I also modified the original content. But anycase the page has been deleted. I'm sorry about not being able to do it correctly; I usually work on spanish Wikipedia and maybe in english is very different. I want to ask how can I publish a translated version of a page (actually someone of my team, who wrote a correct english, not me), because I think biofisioterapia is an spanish word (the concept was born in leading hospitals from Barcelona, Spain) but not an exclusive spanish concept (I think that biological effects of physical stimuli to treat neurological and musculoskeletal problems, instead of physiotherapy, drugs or surgeries, are universal). More links about the concept can be found in http://www.biofisioterapia.org or http://www.biofisioterapia.com (sorry, both are in spanish, but as you can see there are not commercial but informatives). Anycase I don't wanna generate any problem with you or Wikipedia; my only intention was to explain a concept to contribute my two cents. Thanks in advance for your cooperation. --Xavierguillem (talk) 22:54, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Sorry. As I've published my talk I've realized that there is a previous talk about the sabe subject. I don't know what is correct to do in that case. I apologize for the duplicate. --Xavierguillem (talk) 23:01, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Just get rid of the duplicate header. Both mine and RHaworth's comments apply here. And this is going to sound terribly nitpicky, but your phrase 'anycase' is grammatically incorrect: you mean "in any case".--Launchballer 23:11, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Launchballer for the info; I will check it. And thanks for your kindly correction of "in any case"... --Xavierguillem (talk) 23:19, 3 June 2014 (UTC)

  • Launchballer, yes, it was nit picking - as recommended here, don't do it. Remember that contributors may not have English as their first language - as is pretty obvious in this case. Also errors may simply be typing errors. If the meaning is clear, don't complain about poor English. (Although technically it is a sin, I think it is OK to silently correct another editor's spelling or grammar mistakes - I do it often enough!)
Xavier, absolutely no need to apologise for duplication - I have some firm layout rules for this page but I recognise that they are personal and idiosyncratick so deviations from them are silently corrected. As to biophysiotherapy, I get a strong feeling that this is very much your invention. But in this case my usual "kindly have the decency" mantra does not apply because the minute number of Google hits for biophysiotherapy suggest that no-one is going to be writing on this subject here in the foreseeable future. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:35, 4 June 2014 (UTC)

This should bring a laugh

woosh deletion

Hi, I ran into this page and saw the article had been deleted (more than once, but I assume giving this name the last deletion for test edit was correct because of his name)

I think this subject is admissible, plenty of result in google search, and serious books speaking about it. Can you restore it ? If this was a promotion article it can be neutralized.
