Hi Juliancolton.

I saw in my list that you have closed the Black & Lane's Ident Tones for Surround AFD as a delete, noting that the sources I provided don't work. This is my fault. The sources do work, but I had misformatted the links, and as a result, they have a pipe mark and a number at the end, which is being treated as part of the URL - it is this which is breaking them. The correct links should be:

  1. https://ips.org.uk/knowledge-base/blits-black-lanes-ident-tones-for-surround/
  2. https://tech.ebu.ch/docs/tech/tech3304.pdf
  3. http://www.tcelectronic.com/blits-a-new-optional-tool-for-touchmonitor/

I have purposely not formatted these as external links in markup, as I broke them last time and I'm not doing it again!

Could you please review these links and let me know if the decision can be amended please?

Many Thanks

Hi Sunil The Mongoose, thanks for the message (and sorry I missed you on IRC this morning!). I've reopened and relisted the AfD, and fixed the external link formatting, to allow for review of these sources. Hopefully we can get some more eyes on the discussion in the coming week.

Blocking of UMCS2006

You posted a note on their user talk page stating they had been blocked, but you never actually blocked them. I have taken care of that for you. Have a wonderful day! ···日本穣 · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe · Join WP Japan! 06:21, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh, that's the second time I've done that recently... I'll have to try and figure out what I'm misclicking on Twinkle. Thanks for the note and for fixing my error. – Juliancolton | Talk 13:02, 13 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Creators of deleted pages, categories, etc.

Hi, How can i find the creator of a deleted page on commons or wikipedia? I'd be useful for this case. Thanks, 176.126.68.77 (talk) 12:43, 13 May 2017 (UTC) No feedback? 176.126.68.77 (talk) 14:18, 18 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Ashfield Mall deletion and undeletion

Greetings. As part of my routine of behind-the-scenes gnoming, I've watchlisted WP:BADAFD and periodically look there for things that I can try and fix. The article on Ashfield Mall popped up briefly here, as it has just been undeleted by DavidLevinson following your deletion last month per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Ashfield Mall. He has made no edits to the article itself other than to remove the AfD template. This does not appear to be in response to any request--based on his user page, he himself seems to have an interest in shopping mall articles in general.

Anyway, the action appears to be good-faith, but to restore the article with no changes in light of the consensus to delete seems to me to be outside of policy. Not wanting to accidentally start any disputes, I wanted to let you know of this action and seek your opinion as to what the best (or, failing that, the least-worst) actions to take from here. Thank you for your time. --Finngall talk 00:10, 15 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for the notification and keen eye, Finngall. I agree that this out-of-process undeletion is problematic, to say the least. I've deleted the article once again and will shortly be engaging David in discussion. Hopefully we can get this sorted without any sort of wheel war breaking out.

DYK for Cyclone Ada

On 15 May 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Cyclone Ada, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that hundreds of tourists became stranded when Cyclone Ada ravaged Whitsunday Island resorts in January 1970? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Cyclone Ada. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Cyclone Ada), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
