8 September 2006

Denise Paolucci

It seems this was lost on the previous log, so I moved it here (page was edited while I was editing). My first article about Denise Paolucci was speedily deleted. At the time, I didn't really understand Wikipedia very well, so I recreated it. It was deleted again. Each time I've created it, it has been speedy deleted in a matter of seconds. (People are encouraged to be bold in their edits!) I attempted to discuss this on the talk page and to provide substantive evidence as to why the article should be left intact, however the talk page ITSELF was speedy deleted! I began a dialogue with the admin who deleted (aeropagitica) after he posted to my talk page, saying the person was not notable, according to WP:BIO. I pointed out that WP:BIO is not official policy and that I did not agree with the admin's determination that the subject of the article was not notable. The admin's response was to accuse me of vandalism and direct me here.

Therefore, I am here to request this article be undeleted and left intact. The subject in question is already mentioned on Wikipedia on Shock site, and I want to improve Wikipedia by adding more information on this person. I'm not her, nor do I know her, so it's not self-promotion or anything of the sort. A google search brings up multitudes of hits. Lastly, this person was the subject of a massive internet shock site hoax that affected people across the world. Saying she is not notable is the same as saying the Michelangelo virus (or other infamous viri or trojans) isn't notable either. TheQuandry 01:13, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've informed User:(aeropagitica) on his talk page. TheQuandry 01:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Keep deleted. Somebody being abused by the GNAA for doing her job is not notable. User:Zoe|(talk) 02:15, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep deleted Obvious case. As for the "multitudes of hits", don't forget those all-important quotation marks. Use those and she's down to just 173 unique hits. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 03:02, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep deleted, a variation on the (notable) LastMeasure. Absolutely no credible reason advanced why the victimisation of this person by self-admitted trolls should be perpetuated on Wikipedia. Guy 13:17, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Keep deleted GNAA article is already an ugly scar on Wikipedia. Unacceptable that Wikipedia should be expected to celebrate the abuse and harrassment of their victims too. Not notable. Bwithh 15:01, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Comment It looks to me like this was deleted out of process, but maybe I'm missing something here. After the first recreation, after the first speedy delete, this should have either been PROD or Afd. I can only think of two reasons we might keep this deleted WP:SNOW (as I think it would fail an AfD) or WP:IAR (but I don't see why we'd use that in this case). It should probably be undeleted and submitted to AfD - unless the source of the deleted article (which I haven't seen) makes it obvious that WP:SNOW applies (an empty article, no assertion of notability, or libelous material).

Note - I've salted the earth. This is pretty clearly non-notable, and the numerous attempts to recreate don't inspire confidence that people will leave it alone. A note to Sebbeng: What you did is not exactly vandalism, because it presumably wasn't done in bad faith, but being bold generally should only be applied until you find out people disagree with you. At that point, you should start talking - continuing to be bold is rude. --Improv 15:29, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm cool with the Denise Paolucci article being deleted. It was reviewed fairly and people talked about it and that's all I asked for. I just wanted to state for the record that I did attempt to discuss keeping the article on the associated talk page, but that during my first attempts to create it, the discussion was ignored, and that after the last speedy deletion, the person who killed the article also speedy deleted the talk page, so my commentary was gone. Anyway, thank you for listening and considering. TheQuandry 17:07, 8 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Overturn and list at AfD. If an A7 deletion is contested at this rate, it should be sent to AfD with few questions. --badlydrawnjeff talk 18:26, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
KD per above. Eusebeus 23:54, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Strong overturn and list Just because of the connection with Last Measure doesn't mean this article was created for the purposes of trolling or anything, so we should treat it the same as any other. What I see: (1) deleted under CSD A7. (2) deleted as empty. (3) deleted per not being notable, out of process. (4) deleted as a repost. I see NO reason why we couldn't have a debate on this article once before deciding it fails notability. Mango juice^talk 16:14, 11 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Overturn and list on AFD. Since process was bypassed, it is difficult for regular editors to really judge what we're talking about here. RFerreira 04:54, 12 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

-====[[〡]] and [[Ⓐ]]====
-As part of my [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2006 August 29#Various strange redirects]], I withdrew the above redirect (re-redirecting it to [[1 (number)]]) and [[Ⓐ]] (re-redirecting it to [[A]]).  I'm sorry about generating all the redirects and then withdrawing most, but I think the results of these two reviews should have been '''Keep'''.  &mdash; [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] |  [[User_talk:Arthur_Rubin|(talk)]] 00:54, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
-* [[User:JLaTondre]] and [[User:Netsnipe]] have been informed.  &mdash; [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] |  [[User_talk:Arthur_Rubin|(talk)]] 01:06, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
-:'''Endorse restore'''. I misread [[〡]] as a vertical bar which seemed to make no sense targeting to 1. I've reverted that one myself since it was my deletion. I also agree with your recreating the [[Ⓐ]] which is why I didn't re-delete it when I closed the RFD. --[[User:JLaTondre| JLaTondre]] 01:20, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
-* Chalk up the deletion up to inexperience. I was a bit overly enthusiastic about clearing backlogs on my [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Log&type=rights&page=User:Netsnipe 2nd day] as admin and was speedily deleting gibberish looking redirects without noticing the discussion. Restored. -- <small><span style="border: 1px solid">[[User:Netsnipe|'''<span style="background-color:White; color:#003333"> &nbsp;Netsnipe&nbsp;</span>''']][[User talk:Netsnipe|<span style="background-color:#003333; color:White">&nbsp;►&nbsp;</span>]]</span></small> 03:14, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
-:You also restored [[⍣]] & [[–·–·]]. Those two weren't withdrawn or contested here so I've re-deleted them. The [[Ⓐ]] was the one one of yours that Arthur was concerned about. --[[User:JLaTondre| JLaTondre]] 11:39, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
-*I think this is unfortunate -- IMO, we should not have entries for all unicode characters. --[[User:Improv|Improv]] 12:45, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
-**I thought so, too, but we have a template {{tl|R from Unicode}}, and it's presently a guideline that such are appropriate if they redirect to something related to the character.  &mdash; [[User:Arthur Rubin|Arthur Rubin]] |  [[User_talk:Arthur_Rubin|(talk)]] 15:51, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
