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 |
|||
Perhaps I did it wrong, I'm unaware. I didn't know where else on my userspace I can put it. |

Thank you. ([[User:Ansakhad|ansakhad]] ([[User talk:Ansakhad|talk]]) 17:24, 4 October 2008 (UTC)) |

I have also advised Ansakhad to create a subpage in user space in which to work on the article there. --[[User:Metropolitan90|Metropolitan90]] [[User talk:Metropolitan90|(talk)]] 18:11, 4 October 2008 (UTC) |

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". QED.

== 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" |

:Hi there, this is a difficult one & I can see both sides of the coin. I've tried to see if there is a consensus by looking through [[:Category:Redirects from alternative languages]] but I'm still not sure. I have always read the "redirect from another language as being more related to things such as [[Kyiv]] (topical one that one - read the talk page! - but I digress), or [[Das Wohltemperirte Clavier]] rather than a literal transalation of every article's name in to other languages, particulary those with non-Latin character sets. This is why I feel that the two (Mandarin?) words/phrases you have mentioned equally fall in to the territory of unlikely/implausible phrases for a person to type on the English language Wikipedia. But the bottom line is that I am one admin & one opinion (which is a valid opinion but equally is far from unchallengable). The redirects were speedily deleted so as there was no deletion discussion there is no community consensus for their deletion which means that you are free to recreate. If they are renominated for deletion I will recuse myself from the process and we'll see what others think. Sound OK to you?

::Well, there's the essay [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Redirects from foreign languages]] . The article's name is a phonetic and literal translation of the actual name. (ie. It's a chinese spacesuit, the actual name is in chinese, not English). From the bit about non-Latin characters, doesn't that indicate bias, since English is used in Hong Kong as an official language, where Chinese characters are prevalent, or India, where non-Latin script is common and English is widely used. But we already use a lot of implausible names that people would type for actual article names (all the non-ASCII ones, and particularly, the widespread use of eszett, a non-English, non-Roman character, that is very likely to be interpretted as a "B" or beta).

== Page Deletion == |
|||
Nancy, |
|||
It appears you have deleted this page back in August, due to it being a Non-Noteable Student Club? |
|||
http://deletionpedia.dbatley.com/w/index.php?title=Loughborough_Students_Union_Gliding_Club_%28deleted_17_Aug_2008_at_18:07%29 |
|||
I set up this page some years back to acurately reflect the history of this club, and after 2007 it was left to the Club to continue to update it. The Club is still a prominent club within the Loughborough Athletic Union. Can you please reverse the deletion? |
|||

:Hi there Eltep. Yes, the article was deleted in August as it had been [[WP:PROD|proposed for deletion]] due to lack of notability. I have just reviewed the text again and I have to say that I think that the original tagging and subsequent deletion were absolutely correct. Our [[WP:NOTE|notability guidelines]] say that if the club has received significant coverage in [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] that are [[Wikipedia:Verifiability#Sources|independent]] of the subject, then it can be presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article and I see no assertion of notability in the article and have been unable to find anything in the [http://news.google.co.uk/archivesearch?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-GB:official&hs=UK0&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tab=wn&q=%22loughborough+students+union+gliding+club%22 news archives either]. You mention above that the club is "prominent within the Loughborough Athletic Union" which I have no doubt is true however for inclusion in Wikipedia it needs to be notable in a wider context and for this reason I am unwilling to restore the page. I would normally offer to copy the content to your userspace but I guess you don't need it as you have full access to it as deletionpedia already.

== History merge == |
|||
You recently performed a history merge on [[Matt Hazard]] and [[Eat Lead: The Return of Matt Hazard]]. These were separate articles on separate subjects with parallel editing histories and should have been handled with a regular merge and redirect. Merging the histories has resulted in versions of the two articles being interleaved, muddling the edit history.

== Speedy deletion == |
|||
Nancy, |
|||
I got your name on the Administrators list - we have not met yet. |
|||
I tried to post a biographical article about a business executive named Norris Lozano this morning and it was speedily deleted. |
|||
The reason given was "advertising" - which gives me some guidance about how to fix it. I'd like the opportunity to edit the piece down and take out the editorializing and just stick with the facts. I think the subject of the bio is valid. |
|||
I don't know what happens here, what if I were to edit the piece down and re-submit it? I've searched the site, but it seems like there is no "second chance"(?) in cases like this. |
|||
Could you please give me some guidance about what I can do next? |
|||
Many thanks, |
|||
