== [[User:Swamilive]] socks == |

Obvious sockpuppet of blocked user and persistent sockpuppeteer {{vandal|Swamilive}}. {{vandal|Lorries_and_owt}} and {{user|Stanley Collins}}. Reported at AIV, which seems to be napping. Thanks.

:Nevermind, Nancy. [[User:Lorries and owt|Lorries and owt]] was blocked by [[User:Black Kite|Black Kite]]. Indefinitely, too. So, we won't be seeing anymore vandalism from that user. [[User:Colin Jacobsen|Colin Jacobsen]] ([[User talk:Colin Jacobsen|talk]]) 15:11, 28 September 2008 (UTC) |

::Sorry, Nancy. I deleted this section since Black Kite blocked the socks and you didn't seem to be around, but Swamilive restored it. It's probably less confusing for you to just leave it now.

== Page Deletion == |
|||
Hi Nancy, I know you did not delete my page, but I figured since you were on the list of administrators that would help with deleted pages and your name is Nancy, I should contact you first. My page was titled [[Nancy Chandler Associates]] and was deleted yesterday. I was wondering if you could help with restoration efforts or send me a copy of the page to my email, robbie@ciniva.com. Thank you for your help. [[User:Cinivasystems|Robbie Foglia]] ([[User talk:Cinivasystems|talk]]) 13:45, 2 October 2008 (UTC) |

== Sarah Lovejoy page == |
|||
Hi Nancy |
|||
Sarah Lovejoy is one of several important artists living on the Midlands Meander craft route in South Africa. |
|||
Be gentle this is my first article of several containing information about these artists. |
|||
I'm really not sure how notable you have to be to appear here, but in South Africa they are all a big deal!!! |
|||
Cheers |

:Hi there Twinstar. You mention that you are not sure how notable someone needs to be in order to have a Wikipedia article which is why I think that before you make any other pages you should check out our [[WP:BIO|notability guidelines for biographies]] and in particular the specific section on [[WP:CREATIVE|creative professionals]] as otherwise I fear that you may suffer further deletions which is not a nice thing to go through, especially for someone who has obviously come here with the best of intentions. Best of luck, kind regards, [[User:Nancy|<span style="font-family:Segoe Script;color:#FF6600;font-size:14px">Nancy</span>]][[User talk:Nancy|<span style="font-family:Segoe Script;font-size:14px"><sup> talk</sup></span>]] 16:18, 2 October 2008 (UTC) |

== Gentle Giant Moving Co. Wiki == |
|||
Hi Nancy, you deleted my page as it was flagged by the coren search bot for copyright infringement. After reading your page, I have a better understanding for what is and is not acceptable for wiki pages. If you would be so kinda as to un-delete the page, I will go through an totally overhaul the page, adding pertinant references Gentle Giant in the media, taking out language that makes it sounds like spam, as well as totally re-write any language taken from my company's website. As a Gentle Giant employee who works along side the creators and maintainers of the website, is there anyway to use that info if given permission? (http://www.winningworkplaces.org/topsmallbiz/2007winners/tsw2007_gentlegiant.php Here) is some proof of Gentle Giant's notability: We were a 2007 Winner of the Wall Street Journal's "Winning Workplaces: Top Small Workplaces". Hopefully that is enough to prove our legitamacy. I hope you will un-delete the Gentle Giant Moving Company page I was working on. Thanks |

:Firstly thank you for reading my "why?" page and I'm really glad that it helped to explain a little of how this great place operates. I am afraid that I am going to have to decline your request for a copy of the deleted article because of the [[WP:COPYVIO|copyright violation]] issues - even if I copied it in to your userpage we would still be the wrong side of our own policies and wider copyright laws. There are ways of releasing the text of the website to [[GFDL]] (the copyleft license which Wikipedia uses) and they are explained on the copyright page linked above but to be honest it is probably not worth the hassle as the text on the website is written in a very promotional way (understandably!) and is not therefore not appropriate in tone for an encyclopaedic article and would likely get deleted as advertising. You also need to make sure that GG meets the notability requirements for inclusion - a skim through [[WP:ORG]] would be a good use of a few minutes. Finally, there is the issue of your conflict of interest - whilst it is not specifically disallowed, people editing articles about themselves or companies they work for is generally frowned upon as we recognise that closeness to a subject may make it very difficult to be [[WP:NPOV|neutral]] - a good rule of thumb is that if a subject is notable enough for inclusion then likely an uninvolved editor will be along soon enough to create a page. Hope this helps & good luck in whatever you decide.

== A-League referees == |
|||
I understand why you would speedily delete [[Chris Beath]] but there are identical articles [[Strebre Delovski]], [[James Lewis (referee)]], [[Steven Gregory]], [[Craig Zetter]] and [[Kevin Docherty]] which have existed for quite some time. Surely all the pages fail the same notability? You've probably come across [[Chris Beath]] randomly and not noticed that other articles existed, so can you please look at them as well. --[[User:Squilibob|Squilibob]] ([[User talk:Squilibob|talk]]) 12:19, 3 October 2008 (UTC) |
|||
:Squilibob, hello. As an admin one of the tasks I do here is to review articles which other editors have submitted from deletion - Chris Beath was on the list but the others you mention were not so you are right, I haven't looked at them but equally would have had no reason to. I'm not sure exactly what you are asking me to do here as it sounds like you are suggesting that the other articles should also be deleted? If this is correct then the way to go about it would be to tag them with the appropriate deletion request tag - if you feel they meet the [[WP:CSD|speedy deletion criteria]] then <nowiki>{{db-bio}}</nowiki> would be appropriate or otherwise you could use [[WP:PROD|proposed deletion]] or [[WP:AFD|articles for deletion]].

== Marcio Stival's page. == |
|||
Hello, |
|||
I just wanted to let you know that Márcio Stival is a internet personality who is fairly famous in Brazil. Stival drew nationwide audiences when he admitted taht he had AIDS in a fairly unusual way. Stival has even appeared in talk shows. I, as for myself, do not have much information, except the trivial stuff, on Stival myself, but since there was no article referring to Stival I thought it would be best to start one, and later other users ( or myself ) may add more information. |
|||
I understand you had no way of knowing all that and I understand that you were doing your job. |

Nancy, |

We will rework the article. I didn't give my team enough time to research what you require for us to be in Wikipedia. The truth is I should have looked into myself before we submitted. We'll re do it and get it to meet the Wikipedia standards. |

:Hello .ffarmer90, the article was deleted because it does not show why Marcio is notable in the context of Wikipedia. If you have not already I strongly suggest that you have a good read of [[WP:BIO|the notability guidelines for biographies]] and, if you are sure that you can [[WP:VER|demonstrate]] within an article how Marcio meets these guidelines then you might want to try again. The most important thing for you to do is to make sure that you have plenty of [[WP:RS|reliable, secondary sources]] backing up the statements in the article.

Thanks for deleting those two foreign-language redirects. Just to let you know, the IP (User talk:70.51.8.75|70.51.8.75]] user who originally requested that those pages be created has been somewhat persistent and will probably try to have them created again; if they are, should I just put the same speedy tag on them? —[[User:Politizer|Politizer]]<sup><small>( '''[[User talk:Politizer|talk]]''' • '''[[Special:Contributions/Politizer|contribs]]''' )</small></sup> 13:37, 4 October 2008 (UTC) |

deletion of user Ansakhad..I think there has been a misunderstanding. I didn't plan advertisement. I was told to write an article up for amendment to my username, which I did. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection#.7B.7Bla.7CPakpassion.7D.7D |

Hi, I couldn't help but notice that you have deleted several of my contributions that I worked very hard to create, including several brand new pages that I had just made. Yes, I know these pages were short and lacked content, but you must know it takes time to write a long and informative page on wikipedia. I'm just trying to contribute and I don't know why I'm having such a hard time doing it. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Rocker85|Rocker85]] ([[User talk:Rocker85|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Rocker85|contribs]]) 17:28, 4 October 2008 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

:I'm not sure that edits such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Veganism&diff=prev&oldid=242412510 this] back up your claim of "just trying to contribute" and neither do the three 'articles' which you created this afternoon which were, as you know were just made up nonsense - example "If Plato was a Christian this is what his philosophy would be called".

== 飞天号航天服 & 飞天 deletion == |
|||
Hi, |
|||
you deleted [[飞天号航天服]] & [[飞天]] |
|||
I think these qualify under {{tl|R from another language}} since they are the original language names for the article in question ([[Feitian space suit]]), so are indeed likely search terms. If someone read an article and copypasted or typed in the original name, shouldn't they be able to reach the correct article?

|||
You used CSD reason R3 |
|||
:''"Recently created redirects from implausible typos or misnomers. However, redirects from common misspellings or misnomers are generally useful, as are redirects in other languages."'' |

This says "redirects in other languages are generally useful" |
