[edit]Hi. I notice you deleted the Alicia Douvall redirect as implausable. No problems with that as she isn't well known, but shouldn't we also remove the links to that page? I'll do this while I think about it. Hope you don't have any objections. Cheers TheRetroGuy (talk) 12:30, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
Deleted article left in userpage
[edit]Hi there. Recently you speedy deleted this article per WP:CSD#A7. The article creator has left a copy of the deleted article on his/her userpage. Shouldn't the content of this userpage be deleted as well? Amsaim (talk) 09:18, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
Using Wikipedia List as footnote
[edit]Hi there. Is it permitted to cite a Wikipedia List within an article using footnotes citation style (e.g. like in this article - see reference No.1)? The Wikipedia List is not used as a reference or source, however the footnote number appears in the infobox. At the moment an IP editor is busy removing all of such citations from various articles. Any ideas? Amsaim (talk) 22:03, 6 August 2010 (UTC)
- Update: I took the issue to Ani and an admin wrote that he liked the IP editors version. Thus it's no longer an issue to me. Thank you. Amsaim (talk) 11:14, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
Gerald FitzGerald 8th Duke of Leinster & Lord John FitzGerald
[edit]My name is Adrian FitzGerald, the second son of the 7th Duke. While there are many errors regarding the FitzGerald family in the pages of Wikipedia, it does not particularly worry me, however I insist that articles regarding me or my immediate family are correct. The 8th Duke Gerald, my half brother, was my father's first son and not the third son as stated on the page. With regard to the information contained on the page relating to the 8th Duke's son Lord John FitzGerald, in the succeeded by box the name Adrian FitzGerald appears with a link to a totally different family. I ammended both articles yesterday 6th August. Today I note the artcles have reverted back to include the incorrect information.Fitzegg (talk) 14:34, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Sock puppet (disambiguation)
[edit]What exactly was wrong with "Sock puppet (disambiguation)" that you have deleted under G6? Though I am not exactly a novice here, I have not been able to figure out how to view what the content of the deleted page was. Your view that it was "unnecessary" may have been well-founded, but I now find that I need several well-aimed clicks backed by some previous knowledge about how WP is architected and how it works in order to get from "sock puppet" as a query argument to "sockpuppet (internet)" which I was looking for. One can imagine that a non-technical neophyte here might well give up in despair (if not disgust) before finding the information that s/he wanted. We would do well to remember that navigation is easier when we already know where everything is than it is for beginners who are new at this. Or is there something simple and obvious that I have overlooked?
Your reaction may be emailed to piper@xs4all.nl or left on my talk page. Thank you for your time. Piperh (talk) 16:45, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
Anthony, thank you for your prompt and courteous reply. You wrote: "If you search in the seachbox for "sockpuppet" then "sockpuppet internet" appears as a front page menu item. I have confirmed this statement while typing this message." Yes, I realize this, and if you will kindly reread carefully my message above, you will see that the problem arises not when "sockpuppet" is entered as a search argument, but rather when "sock puppet" (with a space) is entered by someone who may not be aware that this term is usually spelled without a space by fast-lane people who are familiar with technical internet jargon. My point is that we need to be kind to everyone. Many of the people most likely to come to WP looking for information know little or nothing about the subject they are researching, including what the conventional spellings are. That is why we ought to be generous and careful with how redirects and disambiguation pages are crafted. Can we agree that this is a fixable problem for "sock puppet"? Piperh (talk) 05:43, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
I created the page Ramzy Baroud and started putting in links from the 12 or so other Wikipeida articles that refer to him. But within about 1 minute oyu had deleted the article - rather discouraging!

Professor Dr. Abbas Quli Khan-e Zand Khajeh-Noori
[edit]Why has this been deleted? I referred you to the translation of a full biography except that the name came out funny in translation as 'Noor' in Farsi means 'light' so Khajeh-Noori translated as Khajeh Light. The dates relate to the Persian Calendar. The translator has translated Abbas Quli as Basqly. But it should be clear that we are talking about the same person. This is a personal slight and an insult to have it deleted in this manner.
ProfESo —Preceding unsigned comment added by ProfESo (talk • contribs) 19:01, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
"Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not vandalism. For example adding a controversial personal opinion to an article is not vandalism, although reinserting it despite multiple warnings can be disruptive (however, edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism, see edit warring). Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism. Careful thought may be needed to decide whether changes made are beneficial, detrimental but well-intended, or outright vandalism."
I submitted this article in good faith, took great lengths to comply with what you asked and you do not even respond! ProfESo (talk) 21:50, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- In case you are looking here and not at your own page, I will repeat that I responded two hours ago. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:56, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Thank you, I see it now. I am not used to Wiki techiniques as you can see. If I get the text properly translated and a summary put onto the page, will that be acceptable? The point of the article is to make it available in the English speaking world. Thanks again. 83.137.252.210 (talk) 22:11, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) As I explained on the article's talk page before it was deleted, the main concern is that it seemed to be a somewhat meaningless collection of impossibly long names; I believe part of that may have been due to the fact that the page had been automatically translated, and the grammar, etc. was poor and and difficult to interpret. You should attempt to write the article in your own words if possible, and if you are not confident enough in English to make it understandable, you may be better off contributing to a version of wikipedia in your primary language; you do not appear to have any great difficult responding to comments, however, so if you write the article in your own words, that's likely to be good enough with help from others clearing up any grammatical errors or confusing statements. The main thing you need to be aware of though, is that articles must meet certain criteria in order to be kept; I will post a (hopefully) useful summary of some of our main policies on your talk page here.

Request for rehabilitation
[edit]My name is barryispuzzled and I saw your thoughtful offer to GEORGIEGIBBONS and thought that you might be able to help in my rehabilitation here. I write maths and logic puzzles for a UK national newspaper and also teach maths at an independent sixth form college in Oxford, UK. My website is here. A few years ago on Wikipedia, I created the Baconian theory article and contributed constructively to several other articles. Then it all fell apart. Over two years ago, I received an indefinite block here when I became embroiled in an edit war over the Shakespeare Authorship Question article. Outnumbered and frustrated by other editors, I started inventing sockpuppets, each with a different personality, some of them rather unpleasant (that is, I was rather unpleasant), to help me out on the discussion pages, and eventually (and bizarrely) I voluntarily admitted it here. At that point, I quit Wikipedia. I naively thought that other editors would find my confession of sockpuppets amusing, but instead I received an indefinite ban. When I wanted to continue editing again I came back under sockpuppets (similar to GEORGIEGIBBONS, over 30 in the last two years) but they were easy to discover. When the Baconian theory article I created started to receive large changes from one of the editors who had assisted in banning me, I disruptively attacked the article to get it protected by the admins. When editors succeeded in conspiring to blocking me, I invented new sockpuppets with silly names to leave ironic comments on their talk pages. I boasted that these editors would never keep me away because of the many internet cafes in London. My crime nowadays is not that I vandalise, or make no useful contribution, but that I use a sockpuppet, and when it’s identified my edits get deleted and I get thrown out again. So I’m now stuck in a vicious circle. I’m now starting a PhD on Sir Francis Bacon and really feel I can improve the articles about him but at the moment I can’t go anywhere near them. Having written books on recreational maths, there are also several such articles (e.g. Sleeping Beauty Problem) I’d like to assist with. I don’t want to keep inventing sockpuppets. I don’t want to feel excluded. I want to make a useful contribution. Of course, the original ban was entirely justified and I have no argument against it. But now I’d like to continue to develop articles as before the ban and for that I’m more than happy to keep within the rules. I really believe that both myself and Wikipedia can benefit from this. Could you please help out with a standard offer? (Please forgive this sockpuppet but I really don’t know any other way of contacting you. Feel free to delete it. If you feel able, perhaps you could leave a response at the barryispuzzled talk page.) PleezRehab (talk) 08:24, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

William J. Lashua - Page Deletion
[edit]This page was deleted hastily before contributions could be added to the credibility of the page and the article topic. He is part of an organization and is indeed listed with the article "Ashburnham, Massachusetts" seen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashburnham,_Massachusetts
There is relevance to this man, as he is a World War II Veteran still living and has served in a significant war. More significance to this article is how thousands of people world-wide are sending this man correspondence for his birthday. This may not be relevant until after September 4th or after, but the man and his veteran history with World War II should be more than significant to allow an article on William J. Lashua.

Nightrage band member
[edit]Hello, one reason for my marking "Anders Hammer" for deletion is that even though the bands might be somewhat notable, there are several quite bigger bands whose members do not have their own Wikipedia pages.
Also, I actually work with Nightrage and I'm trying to clear up misinformation and duplicate/old/bad information about the band on various locations on the Internet. I know for a fact that one other member of the band created this Wikipedia page when Anders joined the band in an effort to spread more information about the band. But this is not what Wikipedia is for and it's my opinion that the page is redundant. Will you please reconsider? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FiskarensFiende (talk • contribs) 12:49, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) You may wish to have a look at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: remember that wikipedia is a work in progress. The fact that something similar exists is not a grounds for keeping it, and the fact that something similar doesn't exist isn't a grounds to delete it. Note that A7 only applies to articles which don't assert any importance for the subject at all, and being a member of a notable band is a sufficient assertion of importance. You may wish to try prodding the page or taking it to AfD. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 12:53, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
Elements
[edit]Hi Anthony you deleted Elements rolling papers - it is significant can you please help me rewrite it in a way that you won't consider it a db-delete?
Elements is a brand of rolling papers. Each pack is imprinted with ELEMENTS ULTRA THIN RICE PAPERS, and the saying GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, CARRIED BY THE WINDS AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE. File:Elementsmagnets.jpg In 2010 the saying was altered to reflect the use of wind-power in production; GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, POWERED BY THE WIND AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE.
Each sheet of Elements paper is watermarked with a criss-cross imprint. The manufacturer says that this imprint helps control the burn and prevent runs [1].
In 2008 Elements 1 1/4 sized papers received a magnetic closure system. This holds the pack closed when it's not in use, and helps protect the papers inside [2].
Seems simple? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshmann (talk • contribs) 20:11, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Luke Leighfield speedy deletion
[edit]While this was a dreadful stub, the article included a credible claim of significance (charting recording), as well as references to what appear to be RS news coverage. I therefore think speedy deletion was inappropriate. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
Page move disaster
[edit]If you have a moment, can you take a look at SilkTork's recent page moves? I first noticed this one, because the article Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion is on my watch list. He moved the talk page, but not the article, to a location which simply makes no sense. Looking at his contributions, I see that this was part of a long series of page moves I cannot even begin to attempt to sort out. So, I thought I had better bring this to the attention of an admin. Your thoughts? ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 21:50, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- The page move to which I was referring was already dealt with by another admin. And, no, it was not correct. It was not maliciously intended, certainly, but it was poorly considered. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 17:32, 2 October 2010 (UTC)

Incoming message
[edit]Kieran sseed (talk) 19:05, 6 October 2010 (UTC) Hi,
I am a bit confused about wiki. please bear with me as i may take a while to get to know how to use this.
With reference to the deletion of the page i posted, law of sustainability. I have no objection to the theory and/or law of sustainability being added to the page on sustainability!
I created a new page because personally i find it odd that there were not any pages on theory or law of sustainability. It's a very important subject. I have studied sustainable systems for some time now. I thought it about time I start the thread as there are other biologists, ecologists, engineers and systems thinkers that I'm sure would be interested in these theories - and add to them accordingly. Hope this message finds you Tony,
Kind Regards,
Kieran
ps. I see you are a physician. Well look at all the cycles that happen in the human body: eating, sleeping, breathing, heart beat, cellular life cycles?? these cycles have all to be in balance with each other don't they?
CSD:G5 for Nava Applebaum
[edit]It appears that you have speedy deleted the article Nava Applebaum under CSD:G5, an article that had previously been deleted and restored per my request by User:Fribbler. To the best of my knowledge and based on a cached copy of the article, this was created well before any topic limitations were imposed -- the sources are dated as having been found in 2008 -- and the article is backed by reliable and verifiable sources. The subject of deleting such articles has been discussed at WP:ANI and there is no consensus there that articles created by this editor should be deleted. I would like to ask that the article be recreated and that any global decisions relating to this editor's contributions should be decided based on community consensus and any individual articles that might be subjects of concern be discussed at WP:AFD. Once restored, I am willing to make the edits to address any issues identified with the article. Alansohn (talk) 14:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- The issue appears to be moot for now, as the article was restored and turned into a redirect. Alansohn (talk) 14:25, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

If you could look at the Manual of Style guidelines and comply with them in future, this would be splendid. --Pete (talk) 23:44, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your comment. If you could read the Manual of Style and comply with the guidelines there, that would be even better than your current practice. Alternatively, I'll keep an eye on your edits and tidy them up. --Pete (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks, again. I don't mind doing a little wikihousework to keep things in line with the Manual of Style. I'm very glad that you have put in the research effort to include the service histories of these great old warships, and I hope you don't mind me adding a touch of wikipolish to your solid input. --Pete (talk) 14:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your input. You may be right in your views, but they are inconsistent with the Manual of Style, which in this regard is the result of long and often heated discussion. I would appreciate you initiating discussion on change there, so that other editors may add their opinions. I am uncomfortable with the idea of individual exceptions to the MoS if the only reason for exception is that they have had your personal input, and I trust that you can understand my position in this regard. --Pete (talk) 14:48, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll keep on doing what gives me pleasure: tidying up articles to conform to the MoS. Hardly police work, though - more like a dab with the polishing cloth! I'll keep an eye on your edits, and if I can spot any other areas where I can help, I'll let you know. However, it really would be better if you could read the Manual of Style for yourself. But not necessary - just add well-sourced content and other editors will come along sooner or later and tidy it up. --Pete (talk) 15:06, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Usages such as 1st February or January 2nd are plain enough, but the suffixes are superfluous and may be dispensed with entirely. losing no information. Clarity, simplicity and elegance are good principles to enshrine in an encyclopaedia. --Pete (talk) 15:19, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Deletion Astrid Bryan
[edit]Hi Anthony, You have deleted the article Astrid Bryan. It was restored by Dougweller (talk) Can you please restore it? There is a lot of new notability. Or give me a reason so we can discuss it? MESCREM308 (talk) 12:10, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Jordan Anderson (NASCAR driver)
[edit]Thanks for the note, but there was also an AfD on the NASCAR driver. See here. I was even careful to click through the link created by the speedy deletion template I added to ensure that it went to the right place, so I'm not sure where the confusion arises. Thanks in any case for deleting the article. Someone who's fond of the NASCAR driver has been creating SPAs and restoring the article. JohnInDC (talk) 22:31, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
Jonathan Pillado
[edit]If I follow what happened, you speedily deleted the above article earlier today, and then it was recreated. The recreated article has now been proposed for deletion. Although I can't see the original article, I seriously doubt that anything in the new article would withstand a speedy deletion. I'm assuming there is no mechanism to prevent the recreation of a deleted article?? In any event, I thought you might wish to take some action on this as I can't see any way of saving the article, so why should it hang around for 10 days?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:23, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Anthony, WARNING!!! Blocked user Thmc1 is abusing once again! PLEASE READ!
[edit]I want to report that someone I suspect to be blocked user Thmc1 (logged on as IP Address user:96.242.217.91 and sometimes user:151.198.55.159) may be trying to continue his/her use of Wikipaedia as a propaganda tool. This person, whicn I have reason to believe is Thmc1, is attempting to pawn his revisionist pro-NY views, citing un-reliable business/travel sites as his source. When others undo his edits for this very fact, what does he do? He comes back with a similar business/travel site and says "Here's your proof!". If you examine the logs carefully, you will notice that activity from IPs 96.242.217.91 and 151.198.55.159 were virtually non-existent prior to Thmc1 being banned in June 2010. Since then, both IPs have come alive with activity displaying behavior identical to Thmc1's- using business/travel sites as souces over & over again and making edits to the very same pages! In his quest to seek re-instatement, Thmc1 claimed that he had learned his lesson and would never abuse Wikipedia again. Apparently, he has not learned that lesson. You were right in refusing his requests, and I hope that this will carry over to what is happening now. I STRONGLY urge that you initiate an investigation, which will hopefully lead to blocking him out again.MBaxter1 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:55, 1 December 2010 (UTC).
Re: Barts1a
[edit]Well, it seems that Barts1a has been blocked for a week for the very edit you reverted. Now, considering that the IP that I warned and that he thought I was not assuming good faith of has, for the fourth time, vandalized the page, would you mind blocking the IP in question? It appears that the general people who read AIV reports do not think what he is doing requires their services.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:09, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

RAINBO
[edit]Thanks for your prompt response to the speedy deletion request. RAINBO and Toubia played an important role in raising the profile of FGM as a human rights issue rather than simply a medical problem affecting individual women. The O at the end is in fact the female gender symbol of a circle with a cross below (so it's not so odd that the organisation's name is RAINBO rather than RAINBOW). I don't see the symbol in the available WP symbols - do you know how to access it? I'd like to include a refernce in the article. Opbeith (talk) 23:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Need your suggestion
[edit]About Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition (Mahitala Unpar). I have given the bracket at Mahitala Unpar, because the official name is include Mahitala Unpar. It is like Cocacola FIFA Yunior Champhionship, if we also mention Cocacola it doesn't means promote Cocacola. It is also similar with F1 Ferrari Marlboro Team. Certainly, I want to write about Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition that also support by government of Indonesia. Which one is better:
- If I write with the title Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition, certainly still mentions Mahitala Unpar in the body, but with limitation to expose Mahitala Unpar or at least different style of writing or different redactional.
- Write on Special: ..., but which one is better, with mentions Mahitala Unpar in the title or not.
Thank you so much in advance for your suggestion.

re: Adenoid cyctic carcinoma
[edit]This is a courtesy notice that your speedy-deletion of the redirect at Adenoid cyctic carcinoma has been reverted for the reasons noted below. If you still feel that the redirect is inappropriate to the encyclopedia, please comment at the RfD discussion in progress. Thanks for your understanding. Rossami (talk) 19:41, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- By policy, speedy-deletions are restricted to those named cases where every reasonable administrator will agree that deletion is appropriate. Once an XfD discussion has been opened and a good-faith arguement to keep a page has been made, the page is no longer eligible for speedy-deletion. (The exceptions to that rule are documented copyright violations and BLP violations, neither of which apply in this case.)
- The given reason for speedy-deletion was R3, recently created, implausible redirect. This redirect was created on 1 June 2004. The generally accepted standard for "recently created" is 'in the past few days'. Pages that are years old are explicitly excluded from that criterion.
- The redirect is a mistake but not necessarily an implausible one. A legitimate article exists at Adenoid cystic carcinoma. "Cyctic" for "cystic" is a plausible misspelling. Note: The RfD discussion already includes a recommendation to retarget.
Speedy deletion criteria
[edit]Hi. I am an administrator on the French Wikipedia. This message is to let you know that the deletion of Lilly Wood and the Prick that you have just performed has made me realize that the speedy deletion criteria adopted by the English encyclopedia are really different from those established by the French one, and quite a disappointment from my point of view. That stubs should be deleted only because they do not indicate the importance of their subject is quite shocking to me. Of course, you just did apply the rules prevailing here, and I do not blame you for that, but I wanted to let you know my surprise, just in case it may interest you or someone else here. As you can read French, you may also have a look there for more. Thierry Caro (talk) 22:32, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Rood & Riddle Deletion
[edit]Please explian why the entry for North America's most recognized and advanced private equine hospitals was deleted as "advertising" when there was no such advertising in the article? This is an important institution which is referenced at least nine times in other direct WP articles and is a host to a major horse racing event each year? Perhaps we should delete the entry on Coca Cola next? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coolrascal (talk • contribs) 08:54, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Response to my inquiry: Do do not believe that your assessment is correct in the matter. And by whose authority are you the king-maker for article? What makes YOUR opinion the final authority? If this is to be a site of contributions, your "contribution" of merely deleting an article of importance that is referenced frequently seems more like an act of vandalism rather than a contribution. To me, a contribtion would have been to do something to enhance the article. Random deletion because you have had a bad day hardly seems like an enhancement. Your deletion of this article denied any other Wikians the opportunity to assist and help expand the article, as what happened when I created the stub for J.A. Jones Construction. I began that stub and it has been greatly expanded by the community. I am sure that if you had gotten to it first you might had deleted it as well. The whole world is watching...

Lambda Olive Oil page deleted
[edit]Hi, I see you have deleted the Lambda Olive Oil page two days ago because of "(G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)" Could you please explain why it was regarded as adverting? Did I write something in the wrong way? I'm planning of rewriting the page of lambda, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time
Tassosl (talk) 10:18, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for the quick response.
I read through the pages with the relevant policies you sent me (WP:NN, WP:ADVERT). So, about Notability, Reliable sources etc., I think that the references for lambda include quite reliable and worldwide-known sources like for example LA-Times, Time Magazine, Wallpaper magazine, Packaging Digest magazine etc. that have featured lambda among other Food products, not in any advertising page but in proper articles, noting lambda's quality as a product, delivered in a nice package etc. I had included only one reference which was a public release by lambda's creator, that I'm happy to leave out in the new version of the page. Other than that, I think (well I tried) the article was written not as an advertisement but as a presentation of the lambda product.
Tassosl (talk) 11:28, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for restoring the article. I have already done a bit of housekeeping, restoring some broken links and making the references section more tidy. You say that I have not included the references in the article, but I think I have. They are numbered 1-13 in the text and they link to the reference section which again point to the original articles. Isn't this the correct way?
Tassosl (talk) 08:47, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
So, I read the article again, replaced some "citation" tags that were inserted by a bot with references, added some new references and finally removed text in one or two places that could be regarded as advertising. I also compared with a few other Wikipedia articles of other products and I think it is now OK. I don't know what else I can do. Please review it if you want, and if you agree, you could remove the ADVERT tag. Thank you very much for your help and your time!

Deletion of user talk page
[edit]I see that you deleted User talk:Silkyaqua123 as a copyright infringement. I agree that the latest revisions of the page needed to be deleted, but it seems to me that the earlier revisions, which contained warnings to the user about copyright problems, should be kept in the record, so perhaps it would have been better to have just deleted the relevant revisions, rather than the whole page history. I have restored the older history, but please let me know if you disagree. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:53, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Thanks for the bold deletion. There are plenty more that are simply copy/pastes from parent articles. A healthy listing is here: User:Anna Frodesiak/Silver sandbox. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:36, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- If you find an article which appears to violate copyright, please just tag it for deletion. There is no need to start a discussion in a sandbox, or indeed anywhere else. Again, if you see an article that you feel merits deletion on the basis of content, then please mark it - either for {{speedy}}, or {{prod}}, or AfD. Discussion in your sandbox is again not the usual way of doing things, and discussion on the article talk-page with either keep or delete or merge !votes is not similarly the right way of doing things. Also if, as it appears, you are concentrating on only one editor's contributions, you may be laying yourself open to accusations of stalking. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 17:08, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- Anthony, as someone who has worked at WP:CCI I can confirm that Anna and Sitush have got more than enough evidence to file there. This is a very problematic editor. I will recommend that they file at CCI, so the i's are dotted etc, and an admin is on hand to edit history etc. CCI always has way more work than it can handle, and they are entirely welcome to try to sort out copyright issues having uncovered them. If you've not taken part in playing hunt the copyvio after a CCI is filed, I'm sure it does look exactly like stalking to the editor listed, as all their edits are up for examination.--Elen of the Roads (talk) 19:50, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Mo Sabri
[edit]Hi there, I noticed you deleted the Mo Sabri page. I saw that it was created before without any references to reputable sources that explained his notability. However, I have written a new article and have linked it to newspaper articles and other reliable sources. Can you please undelete the article? My username is Troydamonsta. Here is the link to the article I have created: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Troydamonsta/Mo_Sabri
This is the first time I am posting on talk so I apologize if I have done so incorrectly. Please let me know if you can undelete the article. Thank you for your time sir.

Thank you for your quick response. I have removed the social networking reference and added another legitimate local news source. After my changes, I believe this performer is notable due to two reasons:
1. Mo Sabri is notable because he has created a song that is the "official anthem of a notable state, region, province or territory" which is Johnson City, Tennessee (which is a notable region that is home to Steve Spurrier, Kenny Chesney, Phil Roe, and others; it is also home to bluegrass and other types of music). Since the song is the official anthem of Johnson City, Tennessee, it qualifies under the requirements of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_wizard/Musical_notability.
2. I have 2 total reliable references: one major local newspaper article reference and one major local television network reference. This satisfies the "subject of multiple published works" that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles requires. Full citation: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself." which includes "This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles or television"
For these 2 reasons, I believe Mo Sabri is notable. Please let me know what your thoughts are. I appreciate all your help.
Sincerely, Troydamonsta (talk) 16:32, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Flimibuff and User:JDavie
[edit]You recently deleted Flimibuff, an article I tagged for speedy deletion as vandalism. The article's author seems to believe I am responsible for the article's deletion and was upset with the article being deleted. I did not respond to her comments, partly because they were somewhat troll-ish. Unfortunately, that led to this behaviour. I'm still not inclined to respond, but I thought I would bring it to an administrator's attention in case any admin observation or action is required here. Singularity42 (talk) 22:05, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Declined Speey of In Memoriam 2014
[edit]Hi. You recently declined the speedy deletion of an article I tagged, stating that notability was shown. However, I am curious as to what actually denoted the group being notable in the article? I initially tagged it as an unnotable group because the article states that the group in question hasn't actually been launched yet, and is just projected to sometime later this year, and the fact that none of the references cited in the article actually talk about the group at all. They merely show that some of the stuff talked about within the article is notable, but not the group itself. While some of the concepts the article talks about are notable on their own, I still don't see how the article sufficiently explains how the actual subject of the article itself is a group notable enough to be included in the encyclopedia.

[edit]I see, Well that does make sense. Then again you can go through these. Tata Archives for Naval Tata. And this small part of his biography. "Naval also played a hand in development of sport in India becoming the first President of the Indian Council of Sports and giving India its first ever floodlit hockey ground in 1958. His support of hockey also saw India win gold in three successive Olympic Games in London (1948), Helsinki (1952) and Melbourne (1956)." "“I am Indian first and last and a nationalist who is deeply conscious and proud of a priceless heritage of this great country.”, these lines are used in our history books." I would like to see the original text which was in the given page. Perhaps i can edit it. Yes, that would be most helpful. Please leave the earlier text. I will edit it and update it to best of my ability. Although i'm quite new to editing in Wikipedia. Perhaps i'll ask for some guidance from you if i need any?

Then, I contacted him via the "Radeon R700" Talk page. And I told him that:
"Incorrect, ATi is Still ATi Regardless. ATi is still designing these Chips, AMD is just Slapping their Logo on recent Graphics cards: Nothing more.
As i said, ATi is ATi, AMD is AMD. Regardless of the Buyout."
Which is true, AMD is merely Slamming their Logo on recent ATi GPUs. But ATi is indeed still making the GPUs, Not AMD, Regardless of the buyout.
Yet, even as he knows this, He is still continuing to Edit the GPU Pages to look like AMD is making these GPUs.
I would not see False Information to be shown, Thats why I'm "Doing this".

[edit]My name is Marlissa, and I am new to Wikipedia and I was unaware of everything that went into making a new article. I am unsure the exact ways to go about things. I am very confused about the way things work, and how I am supposed to rectify that there is indeed notoriety. However, I have found many references citing her notoriety. I am listing them below as proof that the page should be kept, and the references should be added to the page. I hope they will suffice, if not, let me know if there is anything else I can do.

Hello I requested Delores Chamblin (Duncan) deleted, NOT Delores Chamblin. I know the articles are the same. I simply wanted to remove (Duncan). Delores Chamblin (Duncan) appeared automatically when I created the article. I am new to Wikipedia and still learning how to use it Afridel (talk) 20:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello As requested I kept Delores Chamblin (Duncan) because it was created prior to Delores Chamblin. Reasons for deletion should be more specific and not broad generalizations. Afridel (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Please specify what you are referring to from the article. Comments about this article are very generalized. Afridel (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
The above comment is regarding the article Delores Chamblin (Duncan). The article Delores Chamblin (Duncan) is being wikified, however Delores Chamblin is the one I want to keep. What is the best way to handle this? What I would like to do is indicate in the body of that article is that Delores Duncan is the birth name or former name. Basically all the content of Delores Chamblin (Duncan) should be at Delores Chamblin. I think both should be kept open to fix it unless there is another way to fix this.

Your deletion of the Bruno Facciolo page in 2008
[edit]Why did you delete this page??? The reason you gave was "NN Gangster". What does that mean? I was interested in finding out if Facciolo was related to Carla Facciolo who currently stars in Mob Wives - but I can't tell because you deleted the page. I might note that you seem to delete an awful lot of pages - you make dozens and dozens and dozens of edits a week - as if you spend you life on Wikipedia. How in the world can you delete stuff if you are not familiar with the page's contents - you can't be familiar with everything in the world. Are you even aware that Bruno Facciolo is DEAD??? May I make a suggestion??? Instead of just going around and entirely deleting stuff, perhaps try to clean up the pages instead. What you are doing is making Wikipedia a less and less valuable resource.
- You wrote, "As you point out, I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it. It was deleted as being an uncontested WP:PROD, which is wholly appropriate assumimg that the deleting admin agrees with the rationale for deletion which in my personal view is uncontestable in the case of a non-notable gangster such as this one. To answer your further point, the articles states that he is dead, so clearly I was aware of that at the time. If you wish to comment on the functions of admins in the maintaining of the integrity of the encyclopedia, it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page. Without in any way wishing to give offence, I do not feel that I need to defend any of actions of mine to you."
- ANSWER - Again, I have no idea what an "uncontested WP:PROD" was, so had to go look it up and hope that I could understand it (I do not build my life around Wikipedia, thus do not know the in's and out's of it). No doubt it WAS uncontested - I mean, it might have only been looked at a couple times a week/month/year, and most readers are like me - we don't bother getting involved in these fights to get pages deleted/not deleted (some of the stuff gets so nerdy - I can't understand the Wikipedia abbreviations and have no desire to go chase down the links to figure out the arcane names mean - that is for "admnistrators" like yourself - the public sure isn't going to do it). We assume that, as an administrator, you are only going to make edits/deletions on subjects you are familiar with (aside from obvious vandalism). And here, you say that Faccciolo is a "non-notable gangster". Firstly, let me thank you for finally telling me what "NN" means. Secondly, who are you to say that he was "non-notable"? Are you aware that his murder was one of the murders that not only put the Boss, Underboss, and Acting Street Boss of the Lucchese family away, but was also one of the murders that put the so-called "Mafia Cops" in that spectacular case, i.e. he was murdered by New York City Police officers acting on the orders of Lucchese mafia family. I knew that name. And then I turn on the TV this year and watch the new "reality" show "Mob Wives" and see that one of the four mob wives is one Carla Facciolo, daughter of one-time Lucchese acting street boss Louis "Crossbay Louie" Daidone (yes, here is a Wikipedia page on him), and I said, "Wait a minute, is she related to the Facciolo guy who got rubbed out???", so I immediately went to Wikipedia . . . . . . and found that you had deleted the page. Thank you. To a mafia buff, all these murders are important to keep track of. Any mobster is notable because he fits somewhere on a mafia family chart (can't produce one from Wikipedia - too many names/pages have been "deleted"). This happens all the time on Wikipedia. A few months back, it was being proposed that the Motion Lounge page be deleted - even though it was actually portrayed in the movie "Donnie Brasco". Wikipedia is becoming less and less useful.
- You stated that "the article states that he is dead" - do you mean there is a way to look at the old deleted page??? - wow, I didn't know that - can you please give me the URL here/below - I don't know how to do that, and I would like to read it. Thanks for that. You would be doing me a favour - also, how do I find those pages???
- Okay, fair enough - you don't want this sort of talk on your Talk page - but you say, "it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page". Then where??? I have no idea where to put this sort of question to you. Again, I don't know that much about the in's and out's of Wikipedia.
- Thanks in advance. Sorry if I offended you. I guess I was just letting off steam because when I saw the page had been deleted, I just thought, "There we go again!!!"
- P.S.--I might note that I know you are not an expert on the subject of the mafia. Do you know how I know that??? It's because you said, "I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it." If you were interested in the mafia, or where an expert on it, you would have remembered it because the name Bruno Facciolo would have rung a huge bell in your head saying, "GUY WAS MURDERED BY NEW YORK POLICE DEPARTMENT OFFICERS ON ORDERS OF THE LUCCHESE MAFIA FAMILY!!!" The name may not mean anything to you, but it is important to people who study the mafia. I just don't understand all these administrators going around deleting pages on subjects that are not familiar with. It would be like me reading some page on some obscure physics problem and saying, "This isn't important - it is not notable". No, you don't have to explain your actions to me, but it is the combined huge number of deletions that go on that are making Wikipedia less and less useful, so, do what you want with it. There is so much missing from it that used to be here.
- P.P.S.--Now that I have written this much, it has come to mind that it would be informative to know just what criteria administrators use to determine "notability". Is is the administrator's idea or conception of notability??? If so, how could you determine, say, the notability of some obscure physics problem that some graduate student dreams up??? For that matter, how could you determine the notability of Bruno Facciolo??? I am now intrigued by all these deletions that are going on. Thanks in advance.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 20:08, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
- More - this is Bruno's brother, Louis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Facciolo Do you think that page should be deleted as well (it mentions Bruno and his death). Or perhaps put Bruno Facciolo's page back up. It always amazes me when the people take all the time and effort to put up a page on a subject/person (thus helping Wikipedia), and then some "administrator" comes winging in and zaps the entire page, and then you research the "administrator's" contributions and realise that the person has created a life out of deleting other people's work because he isn't familiar with it. Wikipedia is going downhill because of this - it has a HUGE problem. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 04:34, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Trevor Sharpe Speedy Deletion Questions
[edit]Sorry I'm a relatively new user, and I have a question. a couple minutes (seconds?) ago I found in the "Recent Changes" a new topic that was made which turned out to simply be vandalism, so I at first just deleted all the text, but after realizing that didn't get rid of the topic I looked up the wikipedia rules on how to delete a topic and found the header that was to be placed for a "speedy deletion", which apparently worked, as you deleted it. Now my question is: Did I carry out that request for a deletion correctly? Soloman212 + tortoise (talk) 4:21 pm, Today (UTC−5) 16:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Dispositio Achillea
[edit]Your deletion of Dispositio Achillea seems to have been a mistake. Neither of the reasons for deletions given appears to be applicable. It is not a dictionary definition of anything (making it a candidate for Wiktionary) or the original text of a source (making it a candidate for Wikisource) but an article about a mediaeval document of obvious historical significance. Nor was it in a foreign language: the Google cache shows that it was in English. I don't personally care for machine-translations, if that was an issue, but this does not appear to have been one, at least not in its final state.
I suggest that you undelete it. If you were to apologize to the user who made the translation from the German, User talk:HansM, it would probably not go unappreciated. --Hegvald (talk) 10:31, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

I'd taken a look at their situation earlier today with Checkuser, and while the IP address they've recently been using is blocked, it is an anonymous only block that should not be affecting them. IP Block Exemptions are only given on an as-needed basis, so I'm not sure why you chose to grant one after I noted that on the user's talk page. I haven't removed the flag, but I was hoping to get a reply from the user to pinpoint what the problem was - it should not be a block. Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:53, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Gerald FitzGerald 8th Duke of Leinster & Lord John FitzGerald
[edit]My name is Adrian FitzGerald, the second son of the 7th Duke. While there are many errors regarding the FitzGerald family in the pages of Wikipedia, it does not particularly worry me, however I insist that articles regarding me or my immediate family are correct. The 8th Duke Gerald, my half brother, was my father's first son and not the third son as stated on the page. With regard to the information contained on the page relating to the 8th Duke's son Lord John FitzGerald, in the succeeded by box the name Adrian FitzGerald appears with a link to a totally different family. I ammended both articles yesterday 6th August. Today I note the artcles have reverted back to include the incorrect information.Fitzegg (talk) 14:34, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Sock puppet (disambiguation)
[edit]What exactly was wrong with "Sock puppet (disambiguation)" that you have deleted under G6? Though I am not exactly a novice here, I have not been able to figure out how to view what the content of the deleted page was. Your view that it was "unnecessary" may have been well-founded, but I now find that I need several well-aimed clicks backed by some previous knowledge about how WP is architected and how it works in order to get from "sock puppet" as a query argument to "sockpuppet (internet)" which I was looking for. One can imagine that a non-technical neophyte here might well give up in despair (if not disgust) before finding the information that s/he wanted. We would do well to remember that navigation is easier when we already know where everything is than it is for beginners who are new at this. Or is there something simple and obvious that I have overlooked?
Your reaction may be emailed to piper@xs4all.nl or left on my talk page. Thank you for your time. Piperh (talk) 16:45, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
Anthony, thank you for your prompt and courteous reply. You wrote: "If you search in the seachbox for "sockpuppet" then "sockpuppet internet" appears as a front page menu item. I have confirmed this statement while typing this message." Yes, I realize this, and if you will kindly reread carefully my message above, you will see that the problem arises not when "sockpuppet" is entered as a search argument, but rather when "sock puppet" (with a space) is entered by someone who may not be aware that this term is usually spelled without a space by fast-lane people who are familiar with technical internet jargon. My point is that we need to be kind to everyone. Many of the people most likely to come to WP looking for information know little or nothing about the subject they are researching, including what the conventional spellings are. That is why we ought to be generous and careful with how redirects and disambiguation pages are crafted. Can we agree that this is a fixable problem for "sock puppet"? Piperh (talk) 05:43, 21 August 2010 (UTC)
I created the page Ramzy Baroud and started putting in links from the 12 or so other Wikipeida articles that refer to him. But within about 1 minute oyu had deleted the article - rather discouraging!

Professor Dr. Abbas Quli Khan-e Zand Khajeh-Noori
[edit]Why has this been deleted? I referred you to the translation of a full biography except that the name came out funny in translation as 'Noor' in Farsi means 'light' so Khajeh-Noori translated as Khajeh Light. The dates relate to the Persian Calendar. The translator has translated Abbas Quli as Basqly. But it should be clear that we are talking about the same person. This is a personal slight and an insult to have it deleted in this manner.
ProfESo —Preceding unsigned comment added by ProfESo (talk • contribs) 19:01, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
"Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not vandalism. For example adding a controversial personal opinion to an article is not vandalism, although reinserting it despite multiple warnings can be disruptive (however, edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism, see edit warring). Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism. Careful thought may be needed to decide whether changes made are beneficial, detrimental but well-intended, or outright vandalism."
I submitted this article in good faith, took great lengths to comply with what you asked and you do not even respond! ProfESo (talk) 21:50, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- In case you are looking here and not at your own page, I will repeat that I responded two hours ago. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:56, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Thank you, I see it now. I am not used to Wiki techiniques as you can see. If I get the text properly translated and a summary put onto the page, will that be acceptable? The point of the article is to make it available in the English speaking world. Thanks again. 83.137.252.210 (talk) 22:11, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) As I explained on the article's talk page before it was deleted, the main concern is that it seemed to be a somewhat meaningless collection of impossibly long names; I believe part of that may have been due to the fact that the page had been automatically translated, and the grammar, etc. was poor and and difficult to interpret. You should attempt to write the article in your own words if possible, and if you are not confident enough in English to make it understandable, you may be better off contributing to a version of wikipedia in your primary language; you do not appear to have any great difficult responding to comments, however, so if you write the article in your own words, that's likely to be good enough with help from others clearing up any grammatical errors or confusing statements. The main thing you need to be aware of though, is that articles must meet certain criteria in order to be kept; I will post a (hopefully) useful summary of some of our main policies on your talk page here.

Request for rehabilitation
[edit]My name is barryispuzzled and I saw your thoughtful offer to GEORGIEGIBBONS and thought that you might be able to help in my rehabilitation here. I write maths and logic puzzles for a UK national newspaper and also teach maths at an independent sixth form college in Oxford, UK. My website is here. A few years ago on Wikipedia, I created the Baconian theory article and contributed constructively to several other articles. Then it all fell apart. Over two years ago, I received an indefinite block here when I became embroiled in an edit war over the Shakespeare Authorship Question article. Outnumbered and frustrated by other editors, I started inventing sockpuppets, each with a different personality, some of them rather unpleasant (that is, I was rather unpleasant), to help me out on the discussion pages, and eventually (and bizarrely) I voluntarily admitted it here. At that point, I quit Wikipedia. I naively thought that other editors would find my confession of sockpuppets amusing, but instead I received an indefinite ban. When I wanted to continue editing again I came back under sockpuppets (similar to GEORGIEGIBBONS, over 30 in the last two years) but they were easy to discover. When the Baconian theory article I created started to receive large changes from one of the editors who had assisted in banning me, I disruptively attacked the article to get it protected by the admins. When editors succeeded in conspiring to blocking me, I invented new sockpuppets with silly names to leave ironic comments on their talk pages. I boasted that these editors would never keep me away because of the many internet cafes in London. My crime nowadays is not that I vandalise, or make no useful contribution, but that I use a sockpuppet, and when it’s identified my edits get deleted and I get thrown out again. So I’m now stuck in a vicious circle. I’m now starting a PhD on Sir Francis Bacon and really feel I can improve the articles about him but at the moment I can’t go anywhere near them. Having written books on recreational maths, there are also several such articles (e.g. Sleeping Beauty Problem) I’d like to assist with. I don’t want to keep inventing sockpuppets. I don’t want to feel excluded. I want to make a useful contribution. Of course, the original ban was entirely justified and I have no argument against it. But now I’d like to continue to develop articles as before the ban and for that I’m more than happy to keep within the rules. I really believe that both myself and Wikipedia can benefit from this. Could you please help out with a standard offer? (Please forgive this sockpuppet but I really don’t know any other way of contacting you. Feel free to delete it. If you feel able, perhaps you could leave a response at the barryispuzzled talk page.) PleezRehab (talk) 08:24, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Not MySpace
[edit]Hey Anthony, in regards to this, doesn't WP:NOTMYSPACE, item 1, give us (or you as an admin) a clear license to blank that page? I mean, that the dude attended a Massive Attack concert and has had a number of phone numbers in his life, that can't be seen as relevant to the project.

William J. Lashua - Page Deletion
[edit]This page was deleted hastily before contributions could be added to the credibility of the page and the article topic. He is part of an organization and is indeed listed with the article "Ashburnham, Massachusetts" seen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashburnham,_Massachusetts
There is relevance to this man, as he is a World War II Veteran still living and has served in a significant war. More significance to this article is how thousands of people world-wide are sending this man correspondence for his birthday. This may not be relevant until after September 4th or after, but the man and his veteran history with World War II should be more than significant to allow an article on William J. Lashua.

Nightrage band member
[edit]Hello, one reason for my marking "Anders Hammer" for deletion is that even though the bands might be somewhat notable, there are several quite bigger bands whose members do not have their own Wikipedia pages.
Also, I actually work with Nightrage and I'm trying to clear up misinformation and duplicate/old/bad information about the band on various locations on the Internet. I know for a fact that one other member of the band created this Wikipedia page when Anders joined the band in an effort to spread more information about the band. But this is not what Wikipedia is for and it's my opinion that the page is redundant. Will you please reconsider? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FiskarensFiende (talk • contribs) 12:49, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) You may wish to have a look at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: remember that wikipedia is a work in progress. The fact that something similar exists is not a grounds for keeping it, and the fact that something similar doesn't exist isn't a grounds to delete it. Note that A7 only applies to articles which don't assert any importance for the subject at all, and being a member of a notable band is a sufficient assertion of importance. You may wish to try prodding the page or taking it to AfD. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 12:53, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
Elements
[edit]Hi Anthony you deleted Elements rolling papers - it is significant can you please help me rewrite it in a way that you won't consider it a db-delete?
Elements is a brand of rolling papers. Each pack is imprinted with ELEMENTS ULTRA THIN RICE PAPERS, and the saying GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, CARRIED BY THE WINDS AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE. File:Elementsmagnets.jpg In 2010 the saying was altered to reflect the use of wind-power in production; GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, POWERED BY THE WIND AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE.
Each sheet of Elements paper is watermarked with a criss-cross imprint. The manufacturer says that this imprint helps control the burn and prevent runs [3].
In 2008 Elements 1 1/4 sized papers received a magnetic closure system. This holds the pack closed when it's not in use, and helps protect the papers inside [4].
Seems simple? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshmann (talk • contribs) 20:11, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Luke Leighfield speedy deletion
[edit]While this was a dreadful stub, the article included a credible claim of significance (charting recording), as well as references to what appear to be RS news coverage. I therefore think speedy deletion was inappropriate. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
Page move disaster
[edit]If you have a moment, can you take a look at SilkTork's recent page moves? I first noticed this one, because the article Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion is on my watch list. He moved the talk page, but not the article, to a location which simply makes no sense. Looking at his contributions, I see that this was part of a long series of page moves I cannot even begin to attempt to sort out. So, I thought I had better bring this to the attention of an admin. Your thoughts? ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 21:50, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- The page move to which I was referring was already dealt with by another admin. And, no, it was not correct. It was not maliciously intended, certainly, but it was poorly considered. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 17:32, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- No worries. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 00:12, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
Incoming message
[edit]Kieran sseed (talk) 19:05, 6 October 2010 (UTC) Hi,
I am a bit confused about wiki. please bear with me as i may take a while to get to know how to use this.
With reference to the deletion of the page i posted, law of sustainability. I have no objection to the theory and/or law of sustainability being added to the page on sustainability!
I created a new page because personally i find it odd that there were not any pages on theory or law of sustainability. It's a very important subject. I have studied sustainable systems for some time now. I thought it about time I start the thread as there are other biologists, ecologists, engineers and systems thinkers that I'm sure would be interested in these theories - and add to them accordingly. Hope this message finds you Tony,
Kind Regards,
Kieran
ps. I see you are a physician. Well look at all the cycles that happen in the human body: eating, sleeping, breathing, heart beat, cellular life cycles?? these cycles have all to be in balance with each other don't they?
CSD:G5 for Nava Applebaum
[edit]It appears that you have speedy deleted the article Nava Applebaum under CSD:G5, an article that had previously been deleted and restored per my request by User:Fribbler. To the best of my knowledge and based on a cached copy of the article, this was created well before any topic limitations were imposed -- the sources are dated as having been found in 2008 -- and the article is backed by reliable and verifiable sources. The subject of deleting such articles has been discussed at WP:ANI and there is no consensus there that articles created by this editor should be deleted. I would like to ask that the article be recreated and that any global decisions relating to this editor's contributions should be decided based on community consensus and any individual articles that might be subjects of concern be discussed at WP:AFD. Once restored, I am willing to make the edits to address any issues identified with the article. Alansohn (talk) 14:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- The issue appears to be moot for now, as the article was restored and turned into a redirect. Alansohn (talk) 14:25, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Objections to re-creating Douglas C. Schmidt ?

Date formats
[edit]Looking at this edit, I see you applying US-format dates to an article on a British subject which requires International-format dates as per WP:DATE. If you could look at the Manual of Style guidelines and comply with them in future, this would be splendid. --Pete (talk) 23:44, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your comment. If you could read the Manual of Style and comply with the guidelines there, that would be even better than your current practice. Alternatively, I'll keep an eye on your edits and tidy them up. --Pete (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks, again. I don't mind doing a little wikihousework to keep things in line with the Manual of Style. I'm very glad that you have put in the research effort to include the service histories of these great old warships, and I hope you don't mind me adding a touch of wikipolish to your solid input. --Pete (talk) 14:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your input. You may be right in your views, but they are inconsistent with the Manual of Style, which in this regard is the result of long and often heated discussion. I would appreciate you initiating discussion on change there, so that other editors may add their opinions. I am uncomfortable with the idea of individual exceptions to the MoS if the only reason for exception is that they have had your personal input, and I trust that you can understand my position in this regard. --Pete (talk) 14:48, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll keep on doing what gives me pleasure: tidying up articles to conform to the MoS. Hardly police work, though - more like a dab with the polishing cloth! I'll keep an eye on your edits, and if I can spot any other areas where I can help, I'll let you know. However, it really would be better if you could read the Manual of Style for yourself. But not necessary - just add well-sourced content and other editors will come along sooner or later and tidy it up. --Pete (talk) 15:06, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Usages such as 1st February or January 2nd are plain enough, but the suffixes are superfluous and may be dispensed with entirely. losing no information. Clarity, simplicity and elegance are good principles to enshrine in an encyclopaedia. --Pete (talk) 15:19, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Jonathan Pillado
[edit]If I follow what happened, you speedily deleted the above article earlier today, and then it was recreated. The recreated article has now been proposed for deletion. Although I can't see the original article, I seriously doubt that anything in the new article would withstand a speedy deletion. I'm assuming there is no mechanism to prevent the recreation of a deleted article?? In any event, I thought you might wish to take some action on this as I can't see any way of saving the article, so why should it hang around for 10 days?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:23, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Anthony, WARNING!!! Blocked user Thmc1 is abusing once again! PLEASE READ!
[edit]I want to report that someone I suspect to be blocked user Thmc1 (logged on as IP Address user:96.242.217.91 and sometimes user:151.198.55.159) may be trying to continue his/her use of Wikipaedia as a propaganda tool. This person, whicn I have reason to believe is Thmc1, is attempting to pawn his revisionist pro-NY views, citing un-reliable business/travel sites as his source. When others undo his edits for this very fact, what does he do? He comes back with a similar business/travel site and says "Here's your proof!". If you examine the logs carefully, you will notice that activity from IPs 96.242.217.91 and 151.198.55.159 were virtually non-existent prior to Thmc1 being banned in June 2010. Since then, both IPs have come alive with activity displaying behavior identical to Thmc1's- using business/travel sites as souces over & over again and making edits to the very same pages! In his quest to seek re-instatement, Thmc1 claimed that he had learned his lesson and would never abuse Wikipedia again. Apparently, he has not learned that lesson. You were right in refusing his requests, and I hope that this will carry over to what is happening now. I STRONGLY urge that you initiate an investigation, which will hopefully lead to blocking him out again.MBaxter1 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:55, 1 December 2010 (UTC).
Re: Barts1a
[edit]Well, it seems that Barts1a has been blocked for a week for the very edit you reverted. Now, considering that the IP that I warned and that he thought I was not assuming good faith of has, for the fourth time, vandalized the page, would you mind blocking the IP in question? It appears that the general people who read AIV reports do not think what he is doing requires their services.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:09, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

RAINBO
[edit]Thanks for your prompt response to the speedy deletion request. RAINBO and Toubia played an important role in raising the profile of FGM as a human rights issue rather than simply a medical problem affecting individual women. The O at the end is in fact the female gender symbol of a circle with a cross below (so it's not so odd that the organisation's name is RAINBO rather than RAINBOW). I don't see the symbol in the available WP symbols - do you know how to access it? I'd like to include a refernce in the article. Opbeith (talk) 23:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Need your suggestion
[edit]About Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition (Mahitala Unpar). I have given the bracket at Mahitala Unpar, because the official name is include Mahitala Unpar. It is like Cocacola FIFA Yunior Champhionship, if we also mention Cocacola it doesn't means promote Cocacola. It is also similar with F1 Ferrari Marlboro Team. Certainly, I want to write about Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition that also support by government of Indonesia. Which one is better:
- If I write with the title Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition, certainly still mentions Mahitala Unpar in the body, but with limitation to expose Mahitala Unpar or at least different style of writing or different redactional.
- Write on Special: ..., but which one is better, with mentions Mahitala Unpar in the title or not.
Thank you so much in advance for your suggestion.

re: Adenoid cyctic carcinoma
[edit]This is a courtesy notice that your speedy-deletion of the redirect at Adenoid cyctic carcinoma has been reverted for the reasons noted below. If you still feel that the redirect is inappropriate to the encyclopedia, please comment at the RfD discussion in progress. Thanks for your understanding. Rossami (talk) 19:41, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- By policy, speedy-deletions are restricted to those named cases where every reasonable administrator will agree that deletion is appropriate. Once an XfD discussion has been opened and a good-faith arguement to keep a page has been made, the page is no longer eligible for speedy-deletion. (The exceptions to that rule are documented copyright violations and BLP violations, neither of which apply in this case.)
- The given reason for speedy-deletion was R3, recently created, implausible redirect. This redirect was created on 1 June 2004. The generally accepted standard for "recently created" is 'in the past few days'. Pages that are years old are explicitly excluded from that criterion.
- The redirect is a mistake but not necessarily an implausible one. A legitimate article exists at Adenoid cystic carcinoma. "Cyctic" for "cystic" is a plausible misspelling. Note: The RfD discussion already includes a recommendation to retarget.
Speedy deletion criteria
[edit]Hi. I am an administrator on the French Wikipedia. This message is to let you know that the deletion of Lilly Wood and the Prick that you have just performed has made me realize that the speedy deletion criteria adopted by the English encyclopedia are really different from those established by the French one, and quite a disappointment from my point of view. That stubs should be deleted only because they do not indicate the importance of their subject is quite shocking to me. Of course, you just did apply the rules prevailing here, and I do not blame you for that, but I wanted to let you know my surprise, just in case it may interest you or someone else here. As you can read French, you may also have a look there for more. Thierry Caro (talk) 22:32, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Response to my inquiry: Do do not believe that your assessment is correct in the matter. And by whose authority are you the king-maker for article? What makes YOUR opinion the final authority? If this is to be a site of contributions, your "contribution" of merely deleting an article of importance that is referenced frequently seems more like an act of vandalism rather than a contribution. To me, a contribtion would have been to do something to enhance the article. Random deletion because you have had a bad day hardly seems like an enhancement. Your deletion of this article denied any other Wikians the opportunity to assist and help expand the article, as what happened when I created the stub for J.A. Jones Construction. I began that stub and it has been greatly expanded by the community. I am sure that if you had gotten to it first you might had deleted it as well. The whole world is watching...

Did I write something in the wrong way? I'm planning of rewriting the page of lambda, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time
Tassosl (talk) 10:18, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for the quick response.
I read through the pages with the relevant policies you sent me (WP:NN, WP:ADVERT). So, about Notability, Reliable sources etc., I think that the references for lambda include quite reliable and worldwide-known sources like for example LA-Times, Time Magazine, Wallpaper magazine, Packaging Digest magazine etc. that have featured lambda among other Food products, not in any advertising page but in proper articles, noting lambda's quality as a product, delivered in a nice package etc. I had included only one reference which was a public release by lambda's creator, that I'm happy to leave out in the new version of the page. Other than that, I think (well I tried) the article was written not as an advertisement but as a presentation of the lambda product.
Tassosl (talk) 11:28, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for restoring the article. I have already done a bit of housekeeping, restoring some broken links and making the references section more tidy. You say that I have not included the references in the article, but I think I have. They are numbered 1-13 in the text and they link to the reference section which again point to the original articles. Isn't this the correct way?
Tassosl (talk) 08:47, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
So, I read the article again, replaced some "citation" tags that were inserted by a bot with references, added some new references and finally removed text in one or two places that could be regarded as advertising. I also compared with a few other Wikipedia articles of other products and I think it is now OK. I don't know what else I can do. Please review it if you want, and if you agree, you could remove the ADVERT tag. Thank you very much for your help and your time!

Deletion of user talk page
[edit]I see that you deleted User talk:Silkyaqua123 as a copyright infringement. I agree that the latest revisions of the page needed to be deleted, but it seems to me that the earlier revisions, which contained warnings to the user about copyright problems, should be kept in the record, so perhaps it would have been better to have just deleted the relevant revisions, rather than the whole page history. I have restored the older history, but please let me know if you disagree. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:53, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Copy paste deletables
[edit]Thanks for the bold deletion. There are plenty more that are simply copy/pastes from parent articles. A healthy listing is here: User:Anna Frodesiak/Silver sandbox. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:36, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- If you find an article which appears to violate copyright, please just tag it for deletion. There is no need to start a discussion in a sandbox, or indeed anywhere else. Again, if you see an article that you feel merits deletion on the basis of content, then please mark it - either for {{speedy}}, or {{prod}}, or AfD. Discussion in your sandbox is again not the usual way of doing things, and discussion on the article talk-page with either keep or delete or merge !votes is not similarly the right way of doing things. Also if, as it appears, you are concentrating on only one editor's contributions, you may be laying yourself open to accusations of stalking. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 17:08, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- Anthony, as someone who has worked at WP:CCI I can confirm that Anna and Sitush have got more than enough evidence to file there. This is a very problematic editor. I will recommend that they file at CCI, so the i's are dotted etc, and an admin is on hand to edit history etc. CCI always has way more work than it can handle, and they are entirely welcome to try to sort out copyright issues having uncovered them. If you've not taken part in playing hunt the copyvio after a CCI is filed, I'm sure it does look exactly like stalking to the editor listed, as all their edits are up for examination.--Elen of the Roads (talk) 19:50, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

5/16/11
Thank you for your quick response. I have removed the social networking reference and added another legitimate local news source. After my changes, I believe this performer is notable due to two reasons:
1. Mo Sabri is notable because he has created a song that is the "official anthem of a notable state, region, province or territory" which is Johnson City, Tennessee (which is a notable region that is home to Steve Spurrier, Kenny Chesney, Phil Roe, and others; it is also home to bluegrass and other types of music). Since the song is the official anthem of Johnson City, Tennessee, it qualifies under the requirements of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_wizard/Musical_notability.
2. I have 2 total reliable references: one major local newspaper article reference and one major local television network reference. This satisfies the "subject of multiple published works" that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles requires. Full citation: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself." which includes "This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles or television"
For these 2 reasons, I believe Mo Sabri is notable. Please let me know what your thoughts are. I appreciate all your help.

Flimibuff and User:JDavie
[edit]You recently deleted Flimibuff, an article I tagged for speedy deletion as vandalism. The article's author seems to believe I am responsible for the article's deletion and was upset with the article being deleted. I did not respond to her comments, partly because they were somewhat troll-ish. Unfortunately, that led to this behaviour. I'm still not inclined to respond, but I thought I would bring it to an administrator's attention in case any admin observation or action is required here.

Declined Speey of In Memoriam 2014
[edit]Hi. You recently declined the speedy deletion of an article I tagged, stating that notability was shown. However, I am curious as to what actually denoted the group being notable in the article? I initially tagged it as an unnotable group because the article states that the group in question hasn't actually been launched yet, and is just projected to sometime later this year, and the fact that none of the references cited in the article actually talk about the group at all. They merely show that some of the stuff talked about within the article is notable, but not the group itself. While some of the concepts the article talks about are notable on their own, I still don't see how the article sufficiently explains how the actual subject of the article itself is a group notable enough to be included in the encyclopedia.

[edit]Hi, Naval Tata was removed, The person in the hyperlink is a part of the history, of Indian history. He is connected in more ways than one. Father of Noel Tata, Noel is the Half Brother of Ratan Tata Separately linked: JRD Tata's father Jamsedji Tata, is the first cousin of Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata Separately Linked2: His wife is Simone Tata Each of these people are/have entrepreneur, industrialist, philanthropist, 'changed the course history' AND are extremely Rich. Which makes it important to be linked together. Please put it back up. Thanks Sunny (talk) 14:59, 29 May 2011 (UTC) Sunny
Naval Tata 2
[edit]I see, Well that does make sense. Then again you can go through these. Tata Archives for Naval Tata. And this small part of his biography. "Naval also played a hand in development of sport in India becoming the first President of the Indian Council of Sports and giving India its first ever floodlit hockey ground in 1958. His support of hockey also saw India win gold in three successive Olympic Games in London (1948), Helsinki (1952) and Melbourne (1956)." "“I am Indian first and last and a nationalist who is deeply conscious and proud of a priceless heritage of this great country.”, these lines are used in our history books." I would like to see the original text which was in the given page. Perhaps i can edit it. Yes, that would be most helpful. Please leave the earlier text. I will edit it and update it to best of my ability. Although i'm quite new to editing in Wikipedia. Perhaps i'll ask for some guidance from you if i need any?

[edit]I started contacting Dennis Via his talk page. But he deleted my "Sections".
Then, I contacted him via the "Radeon R700" Talk page. And I told him that:
"Incorrect, ATi is Still ATi Regardless. ATi is still designing these Chips, AMD is just Slapping their Logo on recent Graphics cards: Nothing more.
As i said, ATi is ATi, AMD is AMD. Regardless of the Buyout."
Which is true, AMD is merely Slamming their Logo on recent ATi GPUs. But ATi is indeed still making the GPUs, Not AMD, Regardless of the buyout.
Yet, even as he knows this, He is still continuing to Edit the GPU Pages to look like AMD is making these GPUs.
I would not see False Information to be shown, Thats why I'm "Doing this".

why did you delete the ANDi page see: http://www.genomenewsnetwork.org/articles/01_01/ANDi.shtml ====== not nonsense, you seem a bit over zealous for an encyclopedia admin , p.s. the guy above this is a moron AMD owns what ATI used to be. ati doesnt even exist . and this sucks to get in touch with people about things... you guys might wnna think about reworking this whole editable table thing

[edit]Request for additions to page Jennifer Teeter to clear A7 non-notoriety
[edit]My name is Marlissa, and I am new to Wikipedia and I was unaware of everything that went into making a new article. I am unsure the exact ways to go about things. I am very confused about the way things work, and how I am supposed to rectify that there is indeed notoriety. However, I have found many references citing her notoriety. I am listing them below as proof that the page should be kept, and the references should be added to the page. I hope they will suffice, if not, let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thank you.

Hello I requested Delores Chamblin (Duncan) deleted, NOT Delores Chamblin. I know the articles are the same. I simply wanted to remove (Duncan). Delores Chamblin (Duncan) appeared automatically when I created the article. I am new to Wikipedia and still learning how to use it Afridel (talk) 20:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello As requested I kept Delores Chamblin (Duncan) because it was created prior to Delores Chamblin. Reasons for deletion should be more specific and not broad generalizations. Afridel (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Please specify what you are referring to from the article. Comments about this article are very generalized. Afridel (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
The above comment is regarding the article Delores Chamblin (Duncan). The article Delores Chamblin (Duncan) is being wikified, however Delores Chamblin is the one I want to keep. What is the best way to handle this? What I would like to do is indicate in the body of that article is that Delores Duncan is the birth name or former name. Basically all the content of Delores Chamblin (Duncan) should be at Delores Chamblin. I think both should be kept open to fix it unless there is another way to fix this.

Your deletion of the Bruno Facciolo page in 2008
[edit]Why did you delete this page??? The reason you gave was "NN Gangster". What does that mean? I was interested in finding out if Facciolo was related to Carla Facciolo who currently stars in Mob Wives - but I can't tell because you deleted the page. I might note that you seem to delete an awful lot of pages - you make dozens and dozens and dozens of edits a week - as if you spend you life on Wikipedia. How in the world can you delete stuff if you are not familiar with the page's contents - you can't be familiar with everything in the world. Are you even aware that Bruno Facciolo is DEAD??? May I make a suggestion??? Instead of just going around and entirely deleting stuff, perhaps try to clean up the pages instead. What you are doing is making Wikipedia a less and less valuable resource.
- You wrote, "As you point out, I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it. It was deleted as being an uncontested WP:PROD, which is wholly appropriate assumimg that the deleting admin agrees with the rationale for deletion which in my personal view is uncontestable in the case of a non-notable gangster such as this one. To answer your further point, the articles states that he is dead, so clearly I was aware of that at the time. If you wish to comment on the functions of admins in the maintaining of the integrity of the encyclopedia, it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page. Without in any way wishing to give offence, I do not feel that I need to defend any of actions of mine to you."
- ANSWER - Again, I have no idea what an "uncontested WP:PROD" was, so had to go look it up and hope that I could understand it (I do not build my life around Wikipedia, thus do not know the in's and out's of it). No doubt it WAS uncontested - I mean, it might have only been looked at a couple times a week/month/year, and most readers are like me - we don't bother getting involved in these fights to get pages deleted/not deleted (some of the stuff gets so nerdy - I can't understand the Wikipedia abbreviations and have no desire to go chase down the links to figure out the arcane names mean - that is for "admnistrators" like yourself - the public sure isn't going to do it). We assume that, as an administrator, you are only going to make edits/deletions on subjects you are familiar with (aside from obvious vandalism). And here, you say that Faccciolo is a "non-notable gangster". Firstly, let me thank you for finally telling me what "NN" means. Secondly, who are you to say that he was "non-notable"? Are you aware that his murder was one of the murders that not only put the Boss, Underboss, and Acting Street Boss of the Lucchese family away, but was also one of the murders that put the so-called "Mafia Cops" in that spectacular case, i.e. he was murdered by New York City Police officers acting on the orders of Lucchese mafia family. I knew that name. And then I turn on the TV this year and watch the new "reality" show "Mob Wives" and see that one of the four mob wives is one Carla Facciolo, daughter of one-time Lucchese acting street boss Louis "Crossbay Louie" Daidone (yes, here is a Wikipedia page on him), and I said, "Wait a minute, is she related to the Facciolo guy who got rubbed out???", so I immediately went to Wikipedia . . . . . . and found that you had deleted the page. Thank you. To a mafia buff, all these murders are important to keep track of. Any mobster is notable because he fits somewhere on a mafia family chart (can't produce one from Wikipedia - too many names/pages have been "deleted"). This happens all the time on Wikipedia. A few months back, it was being proposed that the Motion Lounge page be deleted - even though it was actually portrayed in the movie "Donnie Brasco". Wikipedia is becoming less and less useful.
- You stated that "the article states that he is dead" - do you mean there is a way to look at the old deleted page??? - wow, I didn't know that - can you please give me the URL here/below - I don't know how to do that, and I would like to read it. Thanks for that. You would be doing me a favour - also, how do I find those pages???
- Okay, fair enough - you don't want this sort of talk on your Talk page - but you say, "it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page". Then where??? I have no idea where to put this sort of question to you. Again, I don't know that much about the in's and out's of Wikipedia.
- Thanks in advance. Sorry if I offended you. I guess I was just letting off steam because when I saw the page had been deleted, I just thought, "There we go again!!!"
- P.S.--I might note that I know you are not an expert on the subject of the mafia. Do you know how I know that??? It's because you said, "I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it." If you were interested in the mafia, or where an expert on it, you would have remembered it because the name Bruno Facciolo would have rung a huge bell in your head saying, "GUY WAS MURDERED BY NEW YORK POLICE DEPARTMENT OFFICERS ON ORDERS OF THE LUCCHESE MAFIA FAMILY!!!" The name may not mean anything to you, but it is important to people who study the mafia. I just don't understand all these administrators going around deleting pages on subjects that are not familiar with. It would be like me reading some page on some obscure physics problem and saying, "This isn't important - it is not notable". No, you don't have to explain your actions to me, but it is the combined huge number of deletions that go on that are making Wikipedia less and less useful, so, do what you want with it. There is so much missing from it that used to be here.
- P.P.S.--Now that I have written this much, it has come to mind that it would be informative to know just what criteria administrators use to determine "notability". Is is the administrator's idea or conception of notability??? If so, how could you determine, say, the notability of some obscure physics problem that some graduate student dreams up??? For that matter, how could you determine the notability of Bruno Facciolo??? I am now intrigued by all these deletions that are going on. Thanks in advance.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 20:08, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
- More - this is Bruno's brother, Louis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Facciolo Do you think that page should be deleted as well (it mentions Bruno and his death). Or perhaps put Bruno Facciolo's page back up. It always amazes me when the people take all the time and effort to put up a page on a subject/person (thus helping Wikipedia), and then some "administrator" comes winging in and zaps the entire page, and then you research the "administrator's" contributions and realise that the person has created a life out of deleting other people's work because he isn't familiar with it. Wikipedia is going downhill because of this - it has a HUGE problem. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 04:34, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Trevor Sharpe Speedy Deletion Questions
[edit]Sorry I'm a relatively new user, and I have a question. a couple minutes (seconds?) ago I found in the "Recent Changes" a new topic that was made which turned out to simply be vandalism, so I at first just deleted all the text, but after realizing that didn't get rid of the topic I looked up the wikipedia rules on how to delete a topic and found the header that was to be placed for a "speedy deletion", which apparently worked, as you deleted it. Now my question is: Did I carry out that request for a deletion correctly? Soloman212 + tortoise (talk) 4:21 pm, Today (UTC−5) 16:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Dispositio Achillea
[edit]Your deletion of Dispositio Achillea seems to have been a mistake. Neither of the reasons for deletions given appears to be applicable. It is not a dictionary definition of anything (making it a candidate for Wiktionary) or the original text of a source (making it a candidate for Wikisource) but an article about a mediaeval document of obvious historical significance. Nor was it in a foreign language: the Google cache shows that it was in English. I don't personally care for machine-translations, if that was an issue, but this does not appear to have been one, at least not in its final state.
I suggest that you undelete it. If you were to apologize to the user who made the translation from the German, User talk:HansM, it would probably not go unappreciated. --Hegvald (talk) 10:31, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hello Anthony. I'm somewhat confused about your actions regarding the user linked above. I'd taken a look at their situation earlier today with Checkuser, and while the IP address they've recently been using is blocked, it is an anonymous only block that should not be affecting them. IP Block Exemptions are only given on an as-needed basis, so I'm not sure why you chose to grant one after I noted that on the user's talk page. I haven't removed the flag, but I was hoping to get a reply from the user to pinpoint what the problem was - it should not be a block. Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:53, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Please respond with what makes proper notability, or I will recreate the page.

Gerald FitzGerald 8th Duke of Leinster & Lord John FitzGerald
[edit]My name is Adrian FitzGerald, the second son of the 7th Duke. While there are many errors regarding the FitzGerald family in the pages of Wikipedia, it does not particularly worry me, however I insist that articles regarding me or my immediate family are correct. The 8th Duke Gerald, my half brother, was my father's first son and not the third son as stated on the page. With regard to the information contained on the page relating to the 8th Duke's son Lord John FitzGerald, in the succeeded by box the name Adrian FitzGerald appears with a link to a totally different family.

Sock puppet (disambiguation)
[edit]What exactly was wrong with "Sock puppet (disambiguation)" that you have deleted under G6? Though I am not exactly a novice here, I have not been able to figure out how to view what the content of the deleted page was. Your view that it was "unnecessary" may have been well-founded, but I now find that I need several well-aimed clicks backed by some previous knowledge about how WP is architected and how it works in order to get from "sock puppet" as a query argument to "sockpuppet (internet)" which I was looking for. One can imagine that a non-technical neophyte here might well give up in despair (if not disgust) before finding the information that s/he wanted. We would do well to remember that navigation is easier when we already know where everything is than it is for beginners who are new at this. Or is there something simple and obvious that I have overlooked?
Your reaction may be emailed to piper@xs4all.nl or left on my talk page. Thank you for your time. Piperh (talk) 16:45, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
Anthony, thank you for your prompt and courteous reply. You wrote: "If you search in the seachbox for "sockpuppet" then "sockpuppet internet" appears as a front page menu item. I have confirmed this statement while typing this message." Yes, I realize this, and if you will kindly reread carefully my message above, you will see that the problem arises not when "sockpuppet" is entered as a search argument, but rather when "sock puppet" (with a space) is entered by someone who may not be aware that this term is usually spelled without a space by fast-lane people who are familiar with technical internet jargon. My point is that we need to be kind to everyone. Many of the people most likely to come to WP looking for information know little or nothing about the subject they are researching, including what the conventional spellings are. That is why we ought to be generous and careful with how redirects and disambiguation pages are crafted. Can we agree that this is a fixable problem for "sock puppet"?

I created the page Ramzy Baroud and started putting in links from the 12 or so other Wikipeida articles that refer to him. But within about 1 minute oyu had deleted the article - rather discouraging!

Professor Dr. Abbas Quli Khan-e Zand Khajeh-Noori
[edit]Why has this been deleted? I referred you to the translation of a full biography except that the name came out funny in translation as 'Noor' in Farsi means 'light' so Khajeh-Noori translated as Khajeh Light. The dates relate to the Persian Calendar. The translator has translated Abbas Quli as Basqly. But it should be clear that we are talking about the same person. This is a personal slight and an insult to have it deleted in this manner.

"Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not vandalism. For example adding a controversial personal opinion to an article is not vandalism, although reinserting it despite multiple warnings can be disruptive (however, edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism, see edit warring). Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism. Careful thought may be needed to decide whether changes made are beneficial, detrimental but well-intended, or outright vandalism."
I submitted this article in good faith, took great lengths to comply with what you asked and you do not even respond! ProfESo (talk) 21:50, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- In case you are looking here and not at your own page, I will repeat that I responded two hours ago. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 21:56, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
Thank you, I see it now. I am not used to Wiki techiniques as you can see. If I get the text properly translated and a summary put onto the page, will that be acceptable? The point of the article is to make it available in the English speaking world. Thanks again. 83.137.252.210 (talk) 22:11, 22 August 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) As I explained on the article's talk page before it was deleted, the main concern is that it seemed to be a somewhat meaningless collection of impossibly long names; I believe part of that may have been due to the fact that the page had been automatically translated, and the grammar, etc. was poor and and difficult to interpret. You should attempt to write the article in your own words if possible, and if you are not confident enough in English to make it understandable, you may be better off contributing to a version of wikipedia in your primary language; you do not appear to have any great difficult responding to comments, however, so if you write the article in your own words, that's likely to be good enough with help from others clearing up any grammatical errors or confusing statements. The main thing you need to be aware of though, is that articles must meet certain criteria in order to be kept; I will post a (hopefully) useful summary of some of our main policies on your talk page here.

Request for rehabilitation
[edit]My name is barryispuzzled and I saw your thoughtful offer to GEORGIEGIBBONS and thought that you might be able to help in my rehabilitation here. I write maths and logic puzzles for a UK national newspaper and also teach maths at an independent sixth form college in Oxford, UK. My website is here. A few years ago on Wikipedia, I created the Baconian theory article and contributed constructively to several other articles. Then it all fell apart. Over two years ago, I received an indefinite block here when I became embroiled in an edit war over the Shakespeare Authorship Question article. Outnumbered and frustrated by other editors, I started inventing sockpuppets, each with a different personality, some of them rather unpleasant (that is, I was rather unpleasant), to help me out on the discussion pages, and eventually (and bizarrely) I voluntarily admitted it here. At that point, I quit Wikipedia. I naively thought that other editors would find my confession of sockpuppets amusing, but instead I received an indefinite ban. When I wanted to continue editing again I came back under sockpuppets (similar to GEORGIEGIBBONS, over 30 in the last two years) but they were easy to discover. When the Baconian theory article I created started to receive large changes from one of the editors who had assisted in banning me, I disruptively attacked the article to get it protected by the admins. When editors succeeded in conspiring to blocking me, I invented new sockpuppets with silly names to leave ironic comments on their talk pages. I boasted that these editors would never keep me away because of the many internet cafes in London. My crime nowadays is not that I vandalise, or make no useful contribution, but that I use a sockpuppet, and when it’s identified my edits get deleted and I get thrown out again. So I’m now stuck in a vicious circle. I’m now starting a PhD on Sir Francis Bacon and really feel I can improve the articles about him but at the moment I can’t go anywhere near them. Having written books on recreational maths, there are also several such articles (e.g. Sleeping Beauty Problem) I’d like to assist with. I don’t want to keep inventing sockpuppets. I don’t want to feel excluded. I want to make a useful contribution. Of course, the original ban was entirely justified and I have no argument against it. But now I’d like to continue to develop articles as before the ban and for that I’m more than happy to keep within the rules. I really believe that both myself and Wikipedia can benefit from this. Could you please help out with a standard offer? (Please forgive this sockpuppet but I really don’t know any other way of contacting you. Feel free to delete it. If you feel able, perhaps you could leave a response at the barryispuzzled talk page.) PleezRehab (talk) 08:24, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Not MySpace
[edit]Hey Anthony, in regards to this, doesn't WP:NOTMYSPACE, item 1, give us (or you as an admin) a clear license to blank that page? I mean, that the dude attended a Massive Attack concert and has had a number of phone numbers in his life, that can't be seen as relevant to the project. Besides, of the 1,301 live edits, not a single one is not to their user or talk page. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 15:13, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
William J. Lashua - Page Deletion
[edit]This page was deleted hastily before contributions could be added to the credibility of the page and the article topic. He is part of an organization and is indeed listed with the article "Ashburnham, Massachusetts" seen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashburnham,_Massachusetts
There is relevance to this man, as he is a World War II Veteran still living and has served in a significant war. More significance to this article is how thousands of people world-wide are sending this man correspondence for his birthday. This may not be relevant until after September 4th or after, but the man and his veteran history with World War II should be more than significant to allow an article on William J. Lashua.

Nightrage band member
[edit]Hello, one reason for my marking "Anders Hammer" for deletion is that even though the bands might be somewhat notable, there are several quite bigger bands whose members do not have their own Wikipedia pages.
Also, I actually work with Nightrage and I'm trying to clear up misinformation and duplicate/old/bad information about the band on various locations on the Internet. I know for a fact that one other member of the band created this Wikipedia page when Anders joined the band in an effort to spread more information about the band. But this is not what Wikipedia is for and it's my opinion that the page is redundant. Will you please reconsider? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FiskarensFiende (talk • contribs) 12:49, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) You may wish to have a look at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: remember that wikipedia is a work in progress. The fact that something similar exists is not a grounds for keeping it, and the fact that something similar doesn't exist isn't a grounds to delete it. Note that A7 only applies to articles which don't assert any importance for the subject at all, and being a member of a notable band is a sufficient assertion of importance. You may wish to try prodding the page or taking it to AfD. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 12:53, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
Elements
[edit]Hi Anthony you deleted Elements rolling papers - it is significant can you please help me rewrite it in a way that you won't consider it a db-delete?
Elements is a brand of rolling papers. Each pack is imprinted with ELEMENTS ULTRA THIN RICE PAPERS, and the saying GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, CARRIED BY THE WINDS AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE. File:Elementsmagnets.jpg In 2010 the saying was altered to reflect the use of wind-power in production; GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, POWERED BY THE WIND AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE.
Each sheet of Elements paper is watermarked with a criss-cross imprint. The manufacturer says that this imprint helps control the burn and prevent runs [5].
In 2008 Elements 1 1/4 sized papers received a magnetic closure system. This holds the pack closed when it's not in use, and helps protect the papers inside [6].
Seems simple? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshmann (talk • contribs) 20:11, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Luke Leighfield speedy deletion
[edit]While this was a dreadful stub, the article included a credible claim of significance (charting recording), as well as references to what appear to be RS news coverage. I therefore think speedy deletion was inappropriate. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
Page move disaster
[edit]If you have a moment, can you take a look at SilkTork's recent page moves? I first noticed this one, because the article Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion is on my watch list. He moved the talk page, but not the article, to a location which simply makes no sense. Looking at his contributions, I see that this was part of a long series of page moves I cannot even begin to attempt to sort out. So, I thought I had better bring this to the attention of an admin. Your thoughts? ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 21:50, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- The page move to which I was referring was already dealt with by another admin. And, no, it was not correct. It was not maliciously intended, certainly, but it was poorly considered. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 17:32, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- No worries. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 00:12, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
Incoming message
[edit]Kieran sseed (talk) 19:05, 6 October 2010 (UTC) Hi,
I am a bit confused about wiki. please bear with me as i may take a while to get to know how to use this.
With reference to the deletion of the page i posted, law of sustainability. I have no objection to the theory and/or law of sustainability being added to the page on sustainability!
I created a new page because personally i find it odd that there were not any pages on theory or law of sustainability. It's a very important subject. I have studied sustainable systems for some time now. I thought it about time I start the thread as there are other biologists, ecologists, engineers and systems thinkers that I'm sure would be interested in these theories - and add to them accordingly. Hope this message finds you Tony,
Kind Regards,
Kieran
ps. I see you are a physician. Well look at all the cycles that happen in the human body: eating, sleeping, breathing, heart beat, cellular life cycles?? these cycles have all to be in balance with each other don't they?
CSD:G5 for Nava Applebaum
[edit]It appears that you have speedy deleted the article Nava Applebaum under CSD:G5, an article that had previously been deleted and restored per my request by User:Fribbler. To the best of my knowledge and based on a cached copy of the article, this was created well before any topic limitations were imposed -- the sources are dated as having been found in 2008 -- and the article is backed by reliable and verifiable sources. The subject of deleting such articles has been discussed at WP:ANI and there is no consensus there that articles created by this editor should be deleted. I would like to ask that the article be recreated and that any global decisions relating to this editor's contributions should be decided based on community consensus and any individual articles that might be subjects of concern be discussed at WP:AFD. Once restored, I am willing to make the edits to address any issues identified with the article. Alansohn (talk) 14:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- The issue appears to be moot for now, as the article was restored and turned into a redirect. Alansohn (talk) 14:25, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Objections to re-creating Douglas C. Schmidt ?

Thanks for your comment. If you could read the Manual of Style and comply with the guidelines there, that would be even better than your current practice. Alternatively, I'll keep an eye on your edits and tidy them up. --Pete (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks, again. I don't mind doing a little wikihousework to keep things in line with the Manual of Style. I'm very glad that you have put in the research effort to include the service histories of these great old warships, and I hope you don't mind me adding a touch of wikipolish to your solid input. --Pete (talk) 14:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your input. You may be right in your views, but they are inconsistent with the Manual of Style, which in this regard is the result of long and often heated discussion. I would appreciate you initiating discussion on change there, so that other editors may add their opinions. I am uncomfortable with the idea of individual exceptions to the MoS if the only reason for exception is that they have had your personal input, and I trust that you can understand my position in this regard. --Pete (talk) 14:48, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll keep on doing what gives me pleasure: tidying up articles to conform to the MoS. Hardly police work, though - more like a dab with the polishing cloth! I'll keep an eye on your edits, and if I can spot any other areas where I can help, I'll let you know. However, it really would be better if you could read the Manual of Style for yourself. But not necessary - just add well-sourced content and other editors will come along sooner or later and tidy it up. --Pete (talk) 15:06, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Usages such as 1st February or January 2nd are plain enough, but the suffixes are superfluous and may be dispensed with entirely. losing no information. Clarity, simplicity and elegance are good principles to enshrine in an encyclopaedia. --Pete (talk) 15:19, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

[edit]If I follow what happened, you speedily deleted the above article earlier today, and then it was recreated. The recreated article has now been proposed for deletion.

I'm assuming there is no mechanism to prevent the recreation of a deleted article?? In any event, I thought you might wish to take some action on this as I can't see any way of saving the article, so why should it hang around for 10 days?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:23, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Anthony, WARNING!!! Blocked user Thmc1 is abusing once again! PLEASE READ!
[edit]I want to report that someone I suspect to be blocked user Thmc1 (logged on as IP Address user:96.242.217.91 and sometimes user:151.198.55.159) may be trying to continue his/her use of Wikipaedia as a propaganda tool. This person, whicn I have reason to believe is Thmc1, is attempting to pawn his revisionist pro-NY views, citing un-reliable business/travel sites as his source. When others undo his edits for this very fact, what does he do? He comes back with a similar business/travel site and says "Here's your proof!". If you examine the logs carefully, you will notice that activity from IPs 96.242.217.91 and 151.198.55.159 were virtually non-existent prior to Thmc1 being banned in June 2010. Since then, both IPs have come alive with activity displaying behavior identical to Thmc1's- using business/travel sites as souces over & over again and making edits to the very same pages! In his quest to seek re-instatement, Thmc1 claimed that he had learned his lesson and would never abuse Wikipedia again. Apparently, he has not learned that lesson. You were right in refusing his requests, and I hope that this will carry over to what is happening now. I STRONGLY urge that you initiate an investigation, which will hopefully lead to blocking him out again.MBaxter1 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:55, 1 December 2010 (UTC).

Now, considering that the IP that I warned and that he thought I was not assuming good faith of has, for the fourth time, vandalized the page, would you mind blocking the IP in question?

RAINBO
[edit]Thanks for your prompt response to the speedy deletion request. RAINBO and Toubia played an important role in raising the profile of FGM as a human rights issue rather than simply a medical problem affecting individual women. The O at the end is in fact the female gender symbol of a circle with a cross below (so it's not so odd that the organisation's name is RAINBO rather than RAINBOW). I don't see the symbol in the available WP symbols - do you know how to access it? I'd like to include a refernce in the article. Opbeith (talk) 23:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Need your suggestion
[edit]About Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition (Mahitala Unpar). I have given the bracket at Mahitala Unpar, because the official name is include Mahitala Unpar. It is like Cocacola FIFA Yunior Champhionship, if we also mention Cocacola it doesn't means promote Cocacola. It is also similar with F1 Ferrari Marlboro Team. Certainly, I want to write about Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition that also support by government of Indonesia. Which one is better:
- If I write with the title Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition, certainly still mentions Mahitala Unpar in the body, but with limitation to expose Mahitala Unpar or at least different style of writing or different redactional.
- Write on Special: ..., but which one is better, with mentions Mahitala Unpar in the title or not.

re: Adenoid cyctic carcinoma
[edit]This is a courtesy notice that your speedy-deletion of the redirect at Adenoid cyctic carcinoma has been reverted for the reasons noted below. If you still feel that the redirect is inappropriate to the encyclopedia, please comment at the RfD discussion in progress. Thanks for your understanding. Rossami (talk) 19:41, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- By policy, speedy-deletions are restricted to those named cases where every reasonable administrator will agree that deletion is appropriate. Once an XfD discussion has been opened and a good-faith arguement to keep a page has been made, the page is no longer eligible for speedy-deletion. (The exceptions to that rule are documented copyright violations and BLP violations, neither of which apply in this case.)
- The given reason for speedy-deletion was R3, recently created, implausible redirect. This redirect was created on 1 June 2004. The generally accepted standard for "recently created" is 'in the past few days'. Pages that are years old are explicitly excluded from that criterion.
- The redirect is a mistake but not necessarily an implausible one. A legitimate article exists at Adenoid cystic carcinoma. "Cyctic" for "cystic" is a plausible misspelling. Note: The RfD discussion already includes a recommendation to retarget.
Speedy deletion criteria
[edit]Hi. I am an administrator on the French Wikipedia. This message is to let you know that the deletion of Lilly Wood and the Prick that you have just performed has made me realize that the speedy deletion criteria adopted by the English encyclopedia are really different from those established by the French one, and quite a disappointment from my point of view. That stubs should be deleted only because they do not indicate the importance of their subject is quite shocking to me. Of course, you just did apply the rules prevailing here, and I do not blame you for that, but I wanted to let you know my surprise, just in case it may interest you or someone else here. As you can read French, you may also have a look there for more. Thierry Caro (talk) 22:32, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Rood & Riddle Deletion

Response to my inquiry: Do do not believe that your assessment is correct in the matter. And by whose authority are you the king-maker for article? What makes YOUR opinion the final authority? If this is to be a site of contributions, your "contribution" of merely deleting an article of importance that is referenced frequently seems more like an act of vandalism rather than a contribution. To me, a contribtion would have been to do something to enhance the article. Random deletion because you have had a bad day hardly seems like an enhancement. Your deletion of this article denied any other Wikians the opportunity to assist and help expand the article, as what happened when I created the stub for J.A. Jones Construction. I began that stub and it has been greatly expanded by the community. I am sure that if you had gotten to it first you might had deleted it as well. The whole world is watching...

Lambda Olive Oil page deleted
[edit]Hi, I see you have deleted the Lambda Olive Oil page two days ago because of "(G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)" Could you please explain why it was regarded as adverting? Did I write something in the wrong way? I'm planning of rewriting the page of lambda, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time
Tassosl (talk) 10:18, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for the quick response.
I read through the pages with the relevant policies you sent me (WP:NN, WP:ADVERT). So, about Notability, Reliable sources etc., I think that the references for lambda include quite reliable and worldwide-known sources like for example LA-Times, Time Magazine, Wallpaper magazine, Packaging Digest magazine etc. that have featured lambda among other Food products, not in any advertising page but in proper articles, noting lambda's quality as a product, delivered in a nice package etc. I had included only one reference which was a public release by lambda's creator, that I'm happy to leave out in the new version of the page. Other than that, I think (well I tried) the article was written not as an advertisement but as a presentation of the lambda product.
Tassosl (talk) 11:28, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for restoring the article. I have already done a bit of housekeeping, restoring some broken links and making the references section more tidy. You say that I have not included the references in the article, but I think I have. They are numbered 1-13 in the text and they link to the reference section which again point to the original articles. Isn't this the correct way?
Tassosl (talk) 08:47, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
So, I read the article again, replaced some "citation" tags that were inserted by a bot with references, added some new references and finally removed text in one or two places that could be regarded as advertising. I also compared with a few other Wikipedia articles of other products and I think it is now OK. I don't know what else I can do. Please review it if you want, and if you agree, you could remove the ADVERT tag. Thank you very much for your help and your time!

Deletion of user talk page
[edit]I see that you deleted User talk:Silkyaqua123 as a copyright infringement. I agree that the latest revisions of the page needed to be deleted, but it seems to me that the earlier revisions, which contained warnings to the user about copyright problems, should be kept in the record, so perhaps it would have been better to have just deleted the relevant revisions, rather than the whole page history.

Copy paste deletables
[edit]Thanks for the bold deletion. There are plenty more that are simply copy/pastes from parent articles. A healthy listing is here: User:Anna Frodesiak/Silver sandbox. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:36, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- If you find an article which appears to violate copyright, please just tag it for deletion. There is no need to start a discussion in a sandbox, or indeed anywhere else. Again, if you see an article that you feel merits deletion on the basis of content, then please mark it - either for {{speedy}}, or {{prod}}, or AfD. Discussion in your sandbox is again not the usual way of doing things, and discussion on the article talk-page with either keep or delete or merge !votes is not similarly the right way of doing things. Also if, as it appears, you are concentrating on only one editor's contributions, you may be laying yourself open to accusations of stalking. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 17:08, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- Anthony, as someone who has worked at WP:CCI I can confirm that Anna and Sitush have got more than enough evidence to file there. This is a very problematic editor. I will recommend that they file at CCI, so the i's are dotted etc, and an admin is on hand to edit history etc. CCI always has way more work than it can handle, and they are entirely welcome to try to sort out copyright issues having uncovered them. If you've not taken part in playing hunt the copyvio after a CCI is filed, I'm sure it does look exactly like stalking to the editor listed, as all their edits are up for examination.--Elen of the Roads (talk) 19:50, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

5/16/11
Thank you for your quick response. I have removed the social networking reference and added another legitimate local news source. After my changes, I believe this performer is notable due to two reasons:
1. Mo Sabri is notable because he has created a song that is the "official anthem of a notable state, region, province or territory" which is Johnson City, Tennessee (which is a notable region that is home to Steve Spurrier, Kenny Chesney, Phil Roe, and others; it is also home to bluegrass and other types of music). Since the song is the official anthem of Johnson City, Tennessee, it qualifies under the requirements of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_wizard/Musical_notability.
2. I have 2 total reliable references: one major local newspaper article reference and one major local television network reference. This satisfies the "subject of multiple published works" that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles requires. Full citation: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself." which includes "This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles or television"
For these 2 reasons, I believe Mo Sabri is notable. Please let me know what your thoughts are. I appreciate all your help.
Sincerely, Troydamonsta (talk) 16:32, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Declined Speey of In Memoriam 2014
[edit]Hi. You recently declined the speedy deletion of an article I tagged, stating that notability was shown. However, I am curious as to what actually denoted the group being notable in the article? I initially tagged it as an unnotable group because the article states that the group in question hasn't actually been launched yet, and is just projected to sometime later this year, and the fact that none of the references cited in the article actually talk about the group at all. They merely show that some of the stuff talked about within the article is notable, but not the group itself. While some of the concepts the article talks about are notable on their own, I still don't see how the article sufficiently explains how the actual subject of the article itself is a group notable enough to be included in the encyclopedia.

Naval Tata 2
[edit]I see, Well that does make sense. Then again you can go through these. Tata Archives for Naval Tata. And this small part of his biography. "Naval also played a hand in development of sport in India becoming the first President of the Indian Council of Sports and giving India its first ever floodlit hockey ground in 1958. His support of hockey also saw India win gold in three successive Olympic Games in London (1948), Helsinki (1952) and Melbourne (1956)." "“I am Indian first and last and a nationalist who is deeply conscious and proud of a priceless heritage of this great country.”, these lines are used in our history books." I would like to see the original text which was in the given page. Perhaps i can edit it. Yes, that would be most helpful. Please leave the earlier text. I will edit it and update it to best of my ability. Although i'm quite new to editing in Wikipedia. Perhaps i'll ask for some guidance from you if i need any?

[edit]I started contacting Dennis Via his talk page. But he deleted my "Sections".
Then, I contacted him via the "Radeon R700" Talk page. And I told him that:
"Incorrect, ATi is Still ATi Regardless. ATi is still designing these Chips, AMD is just Slapping their Logo on recent Graphics cards: Nothing more.
As i said, ATi is ATi, AMD is AMD. Regardless of the Buyout."
Which is true, AMD is merely Slamming their Logo on recent ATi GPUs. But ATi is indeed still making the GPUs, Not AMD, Regardless of the buyout.
Yet, even as he knows this, He is still continuing to Edit the GPU Pages to look like AMD is making these GPUs.
I would not see False Information to be shown, Thats why I'm "Doing this".
Please, Do something about "Dennis". — Preceding unsigned comment added by Spartanmastah (talk • contribs) 22:09, 1 June 2011 (UTC)
why did you delete the ANDi page see: http://www.genomenewsnetwork.org/articles/01_01/ANDi.shtml ====== not nonsense, you seem a bit over zealous for an encyclopedia admin , p.s. the guy above this is a moron AMD owns what ATI used to be. ati doesnt even exist . and this sucks to get in touch with people about things... you guys might wnna think about reworking this whole editable table thing

[edit]Request for additions to page Jennifer Teeter to clear A7 non-notoriety
[edit]My name is Marlissa, and I am new to Wikipedia and I was unaware of everything that went into making a new article. I am unsure the exact ways to go about things. I am very confused about the way things work, and how I am supposed to rectify that there is indeed notoriety. However, I have found many references citing her notoriety. I am listing them below as proof that the page should be kept, and the references should be added to the page. I hope they will suffice, if not, let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thank you.

Hello I requested Delores Chamblin (Duncan) deleted, NOT Delores Chamblin. I know the articles are the same. I simply wanted to remove (Duncan). Delores Chamblin (Duncan) appeared automatically when I created the article. I am new to Wikipedia and still learning how to use it Afridel (talk) 20:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello As requested I kept Delores Chamblin (Duncan) because it was created prior to Delores Chamblin. Reasons for deletion should be more specific and not broad generalizations. Afridel (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Please specify what you are referring to from the article. Comments about this article are very generalized. Afridel (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
The above comment is regarding the article Delores Chamblin (Duncan). The article Delores Chamblin (Duncan) is being wikified, however Delores Chamblin is the one I want to keep. What is the best way to handle this? What I would like to do is indicate in the body of that article is that Delores Duncan is the birth name or former name. Basically all the content of Delores Chamblin (Duncan) should be at Delores Chamblin. I think both should be kept open to fix it unless there is another way to fix this.

I just bloody made the article , i gave sources , hes written several books and played a key role in delivering news from the french campaign in WW2, he was also a broadcaster , so how does that make him not notable... ? Goldblooded (talk) 17:43, 23 June 2011 (UTC)

Hes an Author, Broadcaster and Journalist, So how can he not be notable? He was one of the main war corespondents in the French Campaign in WW2 Goldblooded (talk) 00:28, 24 June 2011 (UTC)

Your deletion of the Bruno Facciolo page in 2008
[edit]Why did you delete this page??? The reason you gave was "NN Gangster". What does that mean? I was interested in finding out if Facciolo was related to Carla Facciolo who currently stars in Mob Wives - but I can't tell because you deleted the page. I might note that you seem to delete an awful lot of pages - you make dozens and dozens and dozens of edits a week - as if you spend you life on Wikipedia. How in the world can you delete stuff if you are not familiar with the page's contents - you can't be familiar with everything in the world. Are you even aware that Bruno Facciolo is DEAD??? May I make a suggestion??? Instead of just going around and entirely deleting stuff, perhaps try to clean up the pages instead. What you are doing is making Wikipedia a less and less valuable resource.
- You wrote, "As you point out, I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it. It was deleted as being an uncontested WP:PROD, which is wholly appropriate assumimg that the deleting admin agrees with the rationale for deletion which in my personal view is uncontestable in the case of a non-notable gangster such as this one. To answer your further point, the articles states that he is dead, so clearly I was aware of that at the time. If you wish to comment on the functions of admins in the maintaining of the integrity of the encyclopedia, it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page. Without in any way wishing to give offence, I do not feel that I need to defend any of actions of mine to you."
- ANSWER - Again, I have no idea what an "uncontested WP:PROD" was, so had to go look it up and hope that I could understand it (I do not build my life around Wikipedia, thus do not know the in's and out's of it). No doubt it WAS uncontested - I mean, it might have only been looked at a couple times a week/month/year, and most readers are like me - we don't bother getting involved in these fights to get pages deleted/not deleted (some of the stuff gets so nerdy - I can't understand the Wikipedia abbreviations and have no desire to go chase down the links to figure out the arcane names mean - that is for "admnistrators" like yourself - the public sure isn't going to do it). We assume that, as an administrator, you are only going to make edits/deletions on subjects you are familiar with (aside from obvious vandalism). And here, you say that Faccciolo is a "non-notable gangster". Firstly, let me thank you for finally telling me what "NN" means. Secondly, who are you to say that he was "non-notable"? Are you aware that his murder was one of the murders that not only put the Boss, Underboss, and Acting Street Boss of the Lucchese family away, but was also one of the murders that put the so-called "Mafia Cops" in that spectacular case, i.e. he was murdered by New York City Police officers acting on the orders of Lucchese mafia family. I knew that name. And then I turn on the TV this year and watch the new "reality" show "Mob Wives" and see that one of the four mob wives is one Carla Facciolo, daughter of one-time Lucchese acting street boss Louis "Crossbay Louie" Daidone (yes, here is a Wikipedia page on him), and I said, "Wait a minute, is she related to the Facciolo guy who got rubbed out???", so I immediately went to Wikipedia . . . . . . and found that you had deleted the page. Thank you. To a mafia buff, all these murders are important to keep track of. Any mobster is notable because he fits somewhere on a mafia family chart (can't produce one from Wikipedia - too many names/pages have been "deleted"). This happens all the time on Wikipedia. A few months back, it was being proposed that the Motion Lounge page be deleted - even though it was actually portrayed in the movie "Donnie Brasco". Wikipedia is becoming less and less useful.
- You stated that "the article states that he is dead" - do you mean there is a way to look at the old deleted page??? - wow, I didn't know that - can you please give me the URL here/below - I don't know how to do that, and I would like to read it. Thanks for that. You would be doing me a favour - also, how do I find those pages???
- Okay, fair enough - you don't want this sort of talk on your Talk page - but you say, "it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page". Then where??? I have no idea where to put this sort of question to you. Again, I don't know that much about the in's and out's of Wikipedia.
- Thanks in advance. Sorry if I offended you. I guess I was just letting off steam because when I saw the page had been deleted, I just thought, "There we go again!!!"
- P.S.--I might note that I know you are not an expert on the subject of the mafia. Do you know how I know that??? It's because you said, "I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it." If you were interested in the mafia, or where an expert on it, you would have remembered it because the name Bruno Facciolo would have rung a huge bell in your head saying, "GUY WAS MURDERED BY NEW YORK POLICE DEPARTMENT OFFICERS ON ORDERS OF THE LUCCHESE MAFIA FAMILY!!!" The name may not mean anything to you, but it is important to people who study the mafia. I just don't understand all these administrators going around deleting pages on subjects that are not familiar with. It would be like me reading some page on some obscure physics problem and saying, "This isn't important - it is not notable". No, you don't have to explain your actions to me, but it is the combined huge number of deletions that go on that are making Wikipedia less and less useful, so, do what you want with it. There is so much missing from it that used to be here.
- P.P.S.--Now that I have written this much, it has come to mind that it would be informative to know just what criteria administrators use to determine "notability". Is is the administrator's idea or conception of notability??? If so, how could you determine, say, the notability of some obscure physics problem that some graduate student dreams up??? For that matter, how could you determine the notability of Bruno Facciolo??? I am now intrigued by all these deletions that are going on. Thanks in advance.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 20:08, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
- More - this is Bruno's brother, Louis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Facciolo Do you think that page should be deleted as well (it mentions Bruno and his death). Or perhaps put Bruno Facciolo's page back up. It always amazes me when the people take all the time and effort to put up a page on a subject/person (thus helping Wikipedia), and then some "administrator" comes winging in and zaps the entire page, and then you research the "administrator's" contributions and realise that the person has created a life out of deleting other people's work because he isn't familiar with it. Wikipedia is going downhill because of this - it has a HUGE problem. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 04:34, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Trevor Sharpe Speedy Deletion Questions
[edit]Sorry I'm a relatively new user, and I have a question. a couple minutes (seconds?) ago I found in the "Recent Changes" a new topic that was made which turned out to simply be vandalism, so I at first just deleted all the text, but after realizing that didn't get rid of the topic I looked up the wikipedia rules on how to delete a topic and found the header that was to be placed for a "speedy deletion", which apparently worked, as you deleted it. Now my question is: Did I carry out that request for a deletion correctly? Soloman212 + tortoise (talk) 4:21 pm, Today (UTC−5) 16:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Dispositio Achillea
[edit]Your deletion of Dispositio Achillea seems to have been a mistake. Neither of the reasons for deletions given appears to be applicable. It is not a dictionary definition of anything (making it a candidate for Wiktionary) or the original text of a source (making it a candidate for Wikisource) but an article about a mediaeval document of obvious historical significance. Nor was it in a foreign language: the Google cache shows that it was in English. I don't personally care for machine-translations, if that was an issue, but this does not appear to have been one, at least not in its final state.
I suggest that you undelete it. If you were to apologize to the user who made the translation from the German, User talk:HansM, it would probably not go unappreciated. --Hegvald (talk) 10:31, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hello Anthony. I'm somewhat confused about your actions regarding the user linked above. I'd taken a look at their situation earlier today with Checkuser, and while the IP address they've recently been using is blocked, it is an anonymous only block that should not be affecting them. IP Block Exemptions are only given on an as-needed basis, so I'm not sure why you chose to grant one after I noted that on the user's talk page. I haven't removed the flag, but I was hoping to get a reply from the user to pinpoint what the problem was - it should not be a block. Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:53, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Gerald FitzGerald 8th Duke of Leinster & Lord John FitzGerald
[edit]My name is Adrian FitzGerald, the second son of the 7th Duke. While there are many errors regarding the FitzGerald family in the pages of Wikipedia, it does not particularly worry me, however I insist that articles regarding me or my immediate family are correct. The 8th Duke Gerald, my half brother, was my father's first son and not the third son as stated on the page. With regard to the information contained on the page relating to the 8th Duke's son Lord John FitzGerald, in the succeeded by box the name Adrian FitzGerald appears with a link to a totally different family.

Sock puppet (disambiguation)
[edit]What exactly was wrong with "Sock puppet (disambiguation)" that you have deleted under G6? Though I am not exactly a novice here, I have not been able to figure out how to view what the content of the deleted page was. Your view that it was "unnecessary" may have been well-founded, but I now find that I need several well-aimed clicks backed by some previous knowledge about how WP is architected and how it works in order to get from "sock puppet" as a query argument to "sockpuppet (internet)" which I was looking for. One can imagine that a non-technical neophyte here might well give up in despair (if not disgust) before finding the information that s/he wanted. We would do well to remember that navigation is easier when we already know where everything is than it is for beginners who are new at this. Or is there something simple and obvious that I have overlooked?
Your reaction may be emailed to piper@xs4all.nl or left on my talk page. Thank you for your time. Piperh (talk) 16:45, 20 August 2010 (UTC)
Anthony, thank you for your prompt and courteous reply. You wrote: "If you search in the seachbox for "sockpuppet" then "sockpuppet internet" appears as a front page menu item. I have confirmed this statement while typing this message." Yes, I realize this, and if you will kindly reread carefully my message above, you will see that the problem arises not when "sockpuppet" is entered as a search argument, but rather when "sock puppet" (with a space) is entered by someone who may not be aware that this term is usually spelled without a space by fast-lane people who are familiar with technical internet jargon. My point is that we need to be kind to everyone. Many of the people most likely to come to WP looking for information know little or nothing about the subject they are researching, including what the conventional spellings are. That is why we ought to be generous and careful with how redirects and disambiguation pages are crafted. Can we agree that this is a fixable problem for "sock puppet"?

[edit]Why has this been deleted? I referred you to the translation of a full biography except that the name came out funny in translation as 'Noor' in Farsi means 'light' so Khajeh-Noori translated as Khajeh Light. The dates relate to the Persian Calendar. The translator has translated Abbas Quli as Basqly. But it should be clear that we are talking about the same person. This is a personal slight and an insult to have it deleted in this manner.

"Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not vandalism. For example adding a controversial personal opinion to an article is not vandalism, although reinserting it despite multiple warnings can be disruptive (however, edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism, see edit warring). Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism. Careful thought may be needed to decide whether changes made are beneficial, detrimental but well-intended, or outright vandalism."

- (talk page stalker) As I explained on the article's talk page before it was deleted, the main concern is that it seemed to be a somewhat meaningless collection of impossibly long names; I believe part of that may have been due to the fact that the page had been automatically translated, and the grammar, etc. was poor and and difficult to interpret. You should attempt to write the article in your own words if possible, and if you are not confident enough in English to make it understandable, you may be better off contributing to a version of wikipedia in your primary language; you do not appear to have any great difficult responding to comments, however, so if you write the article in your own words, that's likely to be good enough with help from others clearing up any grammatical errors or confusing statements. The main thing you need to be aware of though, is that articles must meet certain criteria in order to be kept; I will post a (hopefully) useful summary of some of our main policies on your talk page here.

Request for rehabilitation
[edit]My name is barryispuzzled and I saw your thoughtful offer to GEORGIEGIBBONS and thought that you might be able to help in my rehabilitation here. I write maths and logic puzzles for a UK national newspaper and also teach maths at an independent sixth form college in Oxford, UK. My website is here. A few years ago on Wikipedia, I created the Baconian theory article and contributed constructively to several other articles. Then it all fell apart. Over two years ago, I received an indefinite block here when I became embroiled in an edit war over the Shakespeare Authorship Question article. Outnumbered and frustrated by other editors, I started inventing sockpuppets, each with a different personality, some of them rather unpleasant (that is, I was rather unpleasant), to help me out on the discussion pages, and eventually (and bizarrely) I voluntarily admitted it here. At that point, I quit Wikipedia. I naively thought that other editors would find my confession of sockpuppets amusing, but instead I received an indefinite ban. When I wanted to continue editing again I came back under sockpuppets (similar to GEORGIEGIBBONS, over 30 in the last two years) but they were easy to discover. When the Baconian theory article I created started to receive large changes from one of the editors who had assisted in banning me, I disruptively attacked the article to get it protected by the admins. When editors succeeded in conspiring to blocking me, I invented new sockpuppets with silly names to leave ironic comments on their talk pages. I boasted that these editors would never keep me away because of the many internet cafes in London. My crime nowadays is not that I vandalise, or make no useful contribution, but that I use a sockpuppet, and when it’s identified my edits get deleted and I get thrown out again. So I’m now stuck in a vicious circle. I’m now starting a PhD on Sir Francis Bacon and really feel I can improve the articles about him but at the moment I can’t go anywhere near them. Having written books on recreational maths, there are also several such articles (e.g. Sleeping Beauty Problem) I’d like to assist with. I don’t want to keep inventing sockpuppets. I don’t want to feel excluded. I want to make a useful contribution. Of course, the original ban was entirely justified and I have no argument against it. But now I’d like to continue to develop articles as before the ban and for that I’m more than happy to keep within the rules. I really believe that both myself and Wikipedia can benefit from this. Could you please help out with a standard offer? (Please forgive this sockpuppet but I really don’t know any other way of contacting you. Feel free to delete it. If you feel able, perhaps you could leave a response at the barryispuzzled talk page.) PleezRehab (talk) 08:24, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Not MySpace
[edit]Hey Anthony, in regards to this, doesn't WP:NOTMYSPACE, item 1, give us (or you as an admin) a clear license to blank that page? I mean, that the dude attended a Massive Attack concert and has had a number of phone numbers in his life, that can't be seen as relevant to the project. Besides, of the 1,301 live edits, not a single one is not to their user or talk page. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 15:13, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
William J. Lashua - Page Deletion
[edit]This page was deleted hastily before contributions could be added to the credibility of the page and the article topic. He is part of an organization and is indeed listed with the article "Ashburnham, Massachusetts" seen here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashburnham,_Massachusetts
There is relevance to this man, as he is a World War II Veteran still living and has served in a significant war. More significance to this article is how thousands of people world-wide are sending this man correspondence for his birthday. This may not be relevant until after September 4th or after, but the man and his veteran history with World War II should be more than significant to allow an article on William J. Lashua. Thanks. 71.200.27.204 (talk) 17:04, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Nightrage band member
[edit]Hello, one reason for my marking "Anders Hammer" for deletion is that even though the bands might be somewhat notable, there are several quite bigger bands whose members do not have their own Wikipedia pages.
Also, I actually work with Nightrage and I'm trying to clear up misinformation and duplicate/old/bad information about the band on various locations on the Internet. I know for a fact that one other member of the band created this Wikipedia page when Anders joined the band in an effort to spread more information about the band. But this is not what Wikipedia is for and it's my opinion that the page is redundant. Will you please reconsider? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FiskarensFiende (talk • contribs) 12:49, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) You may wish to have a look at WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS: remember that wikipedia is a work in progress. The fact that something similar exists is not a grounds for keeping it, and the fact that something similar doesn't exist isn't a grounds to delete it. Note that A7 only applies to articles which don't assert any importance for the subject at all, and being a member of a notable band is a sufficient assertion of importance. You may wish to try prodding the page or taking it to AfD. GiftigerWunsch [TALK] 12:53, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
Elements
[edit]Hi Anthony you deleted Elements rolling papers - it is significant can you please help me rewrite it in a way that you won't consider it a db-delete?
Elements is a brand of rolling papers. Each pack is imprinted with ELEMENTS ULTRA THIN RICE PAPERS, and the saying GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, CARRIED BY THE WINDS AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE. File:Elementsmagnets.jpg In 2010 the saying was altered to reflect the use of wind-power in production; GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, POWERED BY THE WIND AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE.
Each sheet of Elements paper is watermarked with a criss-cross imprint. The manufacturer says that this imprint helps control the burn and prevent runs [7].
In 2008 Elements 1 1/4 sized papers received a magnetic closure system. This holds the pack closed when it's not in use, and helps protect the papers inside [8].
Seems simple? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshmann (talk • contribs) 20:11, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Luke Leighfield speedy deletion
[edit]While this was a dreadful stub, the article included a credible claim of significance (charting recording), as well as references to what appear to be RS news coverage. I therefore think speedy deletion was inappropriate. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 19:40, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
Page move disaster
[edit]If you have a moment, can you take a look at SilkTork's recent page moves? I first noticed this one, because the article Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion is on my watch list. He moved the talk page, but not the article, to a location which simply makes no sense. Looking at his contributions, I see that this was part of a long series of page moves I cannot even begin to attempt to sort out. So, I thought I had better bring this to the attention of an admin. Your thoughts? ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 21:50, 1 October 2010 (UTC)
- The page move to which I was referring was already dealt with by another admin. And, no, it was not correct. It was not maliciously intended, certainly, but it was poorly considered. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 17:32, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
- No worries. ---RepublicanJacobiteThe'FortyFive' 00:12, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
Incoming message
[edit]Kieran sseed (talk) 19:05, 6 October 2010 (UTC) Hi,
I am a bit confused about wiki. please bear with me as i may take a while to get to know how to use this.
With reference to the deletion of the page i posted, law of sustainability. I have no objection to the theory and/or law of sustainability being added to the page on sustainability!
I created a new page because personally i find it odd that there were not any pages on theory or law of sustainability. It's a very important subject. I have studied sustainable systems for some time now. I thought it about time I start the thread as there are other biologists, ecologists, engineers and systems thinkers that I'm sure would be interested in these theories - and add to them accordingly. Hope this message finds you Tony,
Kind Regards,
Kieran
ps. I see you are a physician. Well look at all the cycles that happen in the human body: eating, sleeping, breathing, heart beat, cellular life cycles?? these cycles have all to be in balance with each other don't they?
CSD:G5 for Nava Applebaum
[edit]It appears that you have speedy deleted the article Nava Applebaum under CSD:G5, an article that had previously been deleted and restored per my request by User:Fribbler. To the best of my knowledge and based on a cached copy of the article, this was created well before any topic limitations were imposed -- the sources are dated as having been found in 2008 -- and the article is backed by reliable and verifiable sources. The subject of deleting such articles has been discussed at WP:ANI and there is no consensus there that articles created by this editor should be deleted. I would like to ask that the article be recreated and that any global decisions relating to this editor's contributions should be decided based on community consensus and any individual articles that might be subjects of concern be discussed at WP:AFD. Once restored, I am willing to make the edits to address any issues identified with the article. Alansohn (talk) 14:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- The issue appears to be moot for now, as the article was restored and turned into a redirect. Alansohn (talk) 14:25, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
Objections to re-creating Douglas C. Schmidt ?

Theology of evangelism page
[edit]Anthony, I'm at a loss as to why the page "Theology of Evangelism" was deleted earlier today. I added the tags as was suggested to indicate that it was assignment.

Can you please help me to understand what the problem is and how to avoid this situation in the future? Thank you, Jjaekley (talk) 00:14, 3 November 2010 (UTC)

Date formats
[edit]Looking at this edit, I see you applying US-format dates to an article on a British subject which requires International-format dates as per WP:DATE. If you could look at the Manual of Style guidelines and comply with them in future, this would be splendid. --Pete (talk) 23:44, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your comment. If you could read the Manual of Style and comply with the guidelines there, that would be even better than your current practice. Alternatively, I'll keep an eye on your edits and tidy them up. --Pete (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks, again. I don't mind doing a little wikihousework to keep things in line with the Manual of Style. I'm very glad that you have put in the research effort to include the service histories of these great old warships, and I hope you don't mind me adding a touch of wikipolish to your solid input. --Pete (talk) 14:27, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for your input. You may be right in your views, but they are inconsistent with the Manual of Style, which in this regard is the result of long and often heated discussion. I would appreciate you initiating discussion on change there, so that other editors may add their opinions. I am uncomfortable with the idea of individual exceptions to the MoS if the only reason for exception is that they have had your personal input, and I trust that you can understand my position in this regard. --Pete (talk) 14:48, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. I'll keep on doing what gives me pleasure: tidying up articles to conform to the MoS. Hardly police work, though - more like a dab with the polishing cloth! I'll keep an eye on your edits, and if I can spot any other areas where I can help, I'll let you know. However, it really would be better if you could read the Manual of Style for yourself. But not necessary - just add well-sourced content and other editors will come along sooner or later and tidy it up. --Pete (talk) 15:06, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Usages such as 1st February or January 2nd are plain enough, but the suffixes are superfluous and may be dispensed with entirely. losing no information. Clarity, simplicity and elegance are good principles to enshrine in an encyclopaedia. --Pete (talk) 15:19, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm assuming there is no mechanism to prevent the recreation of a deleted article?? In any event, I thought you might wish to take some action on this as I can't see any way of saving the article, so why should it hang around for 10 days?--Bbb23 (talk) 00:23, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Anthony, WARNING!!! Blocked user Thmc1 is abusing once again! PLEASE READ!
[edit]I want to report that someone I suspect to be blocked user Thmc1 (logged on as IP Address user:96.242.217.91 and sometimes user:151.198.55.159) may be trying to continue his/her use of Wikipaedia as a propaganda tool. This person, whicn I have reason to believe is Thmc1, is attempting to pawn his revisionist pro-NY views, citing un-reliable business/travel sites as his source. When others undo his edits for this very fact, what does he do? He comes back with a similar business/travel site and says "Here's your proof!". If you examine the logs carefully, you will notice that activity from IPs 96.242.217.91 and 151.198.55.159 were virtually non-existent prior to Thmc1 being banned in June 2010. Since then, both IPs have come alive with activity displaying behavior identical to Thmc1's- using business/travel sites as souces over & over again and making edits to the very same pages! In his quest to seek re-instatement, Thmc1 claimed that he had learned his lesson and would never abuse Wikipedia again. Apparently, he has not learned that lesson. You were right in refusing his requests, and I hope that this will carry over to what is happening now. I STRONGLY urge that you initiate an investigation, which will hopefully lead to blocking him out again.MBaxter1 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:55, 1 December 2010 (UTC).
Re: Barts1a
[edit]Well, it seems that Barts1a has been blocked for a week for the very edit you reverted. Now, considering that the IP that I warned and that he thought I was not assuming good faith of has, for the fourth time, vandalized the page, would you mind blocking the IP in question? It appears that the general people who read AIV reports do not think what he is doing requires their services.—Ryūlóng (竜龙) 06:09, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

RAINBO
[edit]Thanks for your prompt response to the speedy deletion request. RAINBO and Toubia played an important role in raising the profile of FGM as a human rights issue rather than simply a medical problem affecting individual women. The O at the end is in fact the female gender symbol of a circle with a cross below (so it's not so odd that the organisation's name is RAINBO rather than RAINBOW). I don't see the symbol in the available WP symbols - do you know how to access it? I'd like to include a refernce in the article. Opbeith (talk) 23:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Need your suggestion
[edit]About Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition (Mahitala Unpar). I have given the bracket at Mahitala Unpar, because the official name is include Mahitala Unpar. It is like Cocacola FIFA Yunior Champhionship, if we also mention Cocacola it doesn't means promote Cocacola. It is also similar with F1 Ferrari Marlboro Team. Certainly, I want to write about Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition that also support by government of Indonesia. Which one is better:
- If I write with the title Indonesian Seven Summits Expedition, certainly still mentions Mahitala Unpar in the body, but with limitation to expose Mahitala Unpar or at least different style of writing or different redactional.
- Write on Special: ..., but which one is better, with mentions Mahitala Unpar in the title or not.
Thank you so much in advance for your suggestion.

re: Adenoid cyctic carcinoma
[edit]This is a courtesy notice that your speedy-deletion of the redirect at Adenoid cyctic carcinoma has been reverted for the reasons noted below. If you still feel that the redirect is inappropriate to the encyclopedia, please comment at the RfD discussion in progress. Thanks for your understanding. Rossami (talk) 19:41, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
- By policy, speedy-deletions are restricted to those named cases where every reasonable administrator will agree that deletion is appropriate. Once an XfD discussion has been opened and a good-faith arguement to keep a page has been made, the page is no longer eligible for speedy-deletion. (The exceptions to that rule are documented copyright violations and BLP violations, neither of which apply in this case.)
- The given reason for speedy-deletion was R3, recently created, implausible redirect. This redirect was created on 1 June 2004. The generally accepted standard for "recently created" is 'in the past few days'. Pages that are years old are explicitly excluded from that criterion.
- The redirect is a mistake but not necessarily an implausible one. A legitimate article exists at Adenoid cystic carcinoma. "Cyctic" for "cystic" is a plausible misspelling. Note: The RfD discussion already includes a recommendation to retarget.
Speedy deletion criteria
[edit]Hi. I am an administrator on the French Wikipedia. This message is to let you know that the deletion of Lilly Wood and the Prick that you have just performed has made me realize that the speedy deletion criteria adopted by the English encyclopedia are really different from those established by the French one, and quite a disappointment from my point of view. That stubs should be deleted only because they do not indicate the importance of their subject is quite shocking to me. Of course, you just did apply the rules prevailing here, and I do not blame you for that, but I wanted to let you know my surprise, just in case it may interest you or someone else here. As you can read French, you may also have a look there for more. Thierry Caro (talk) 22:32, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Rood & Riddle Deletion
[edit]Please explian why the entry for North America's most recognized and advanced private equine hospitals was deleted as "advertising" when there was no such advertising in the article? This is an important institution which is referenced at least nine times in other direct WP articles and is a host to a major horse racing event each year? Perhaps we should delete the entry on Coca Cola next? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Coolrascal (talk • contribs) 08:54, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Response to my inquiry: Do do not believe that your assessment is correct in the matter. And by whose authority are you the king-maker for article? What makes YOUR opinion the final authority? If this is to be a site of contributions, your "contribution" of merely deleting an article of importance that is referenced frequently seems more like an act of vandalism rather than a contribution. To me, a contribtion would have been to do something to enhance the article. Random deletion because you have had a bad day hardly seems like an enhancement. Your deletion of this article denied any other Wikians the opportunity to assist and help expand the article, as what happened when I created the stub for J.A. Jones Construction. I began that stub and it has been greatly expanded by the community. I am sure that if you had gotten to it first you might had deleted it as well. The whole world is watching...

Lambda Olive Oil page deleted

Did I write something in the wrong way? I'm planning of rewriting the page of lambda, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for your time
Tassosl (talk) 10:18, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for the quick response.
I read through the pages with the relevant policies you sent me (WP:NN, WP:ADVERT). So, about Notability, Reliable sources etc., I think that the references for lambda include quite reliable and worldwide-known sources like for example LA-Times, Time Magazine, Wallpaper magazine, Packaging Digest magazine etc. that have featured lambda among other Food products, not in any advertising page but in proper articles, noting lambda's quality as a product, delivered in a nice package etc. I had included only one reference which was a public release by lambda's creator, that I'm happy to leave out in the new version of the page. Other than that, I think (well I tried) the article was written not as an advertisement but as a presentation of the lambda product.
Tassosl (talk) 11:28, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for restoring the article. I have already done a bit of housekeeping, restoring some broken links and making the references section more tidy. You say that I have not included the references in the article, but I think I have. They are numbered 1-13 in the text and they link to the reference section which again point to the original articles. Isn't this the correct way?
Tassosl (talk) 08:47, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
So, I read the article again, replaced some "citation" tags that were inserted by a bot with references, added some new references and finally removed text in one or two places that could be regarded as advertising. I also compared with a few other Wikipedia articles of other products and I think it is now OK. I don't know what else I can do. Please review it if you want, and if you agree, you could remove the ADVERT tag. Thank you very much for your help and your time!

Deletion of user talk page
[edit]I see that you deleted User talk:Silkyaqua123 as a copyright infringement. I agree that the latest revisions of the page needed to be deleted, but it seems to me that the earlier revisions, which contained warnings to the user about copyright problems, should be kept in the record, so perhaps it would have been better to have just deleted the relevant revisions, rather than the whole page history. I have restored the older history, but please let me know if you disagree. JamesBWatson (talk) 12:53, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

Copy paste deletables
[edit]Thanks for the bold deletion. There are plenty more that are simply copy/pastes from parent articles. A healthy listing is here: User:Anna Frodesiak/Silver sandbox. Anna Frodesiak (talk) 15:36, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- If you find an article which appears to violate copyright, please just tag it for deletion. There is no need to start a discussion in a sandbox, or indeed anywhere else. Again, if you see an article that you feel merits deletion on the basis of content, then please mark it - either for {{speedy}}, or {{prod}}, or AfD. Discussion in your sandbox is again not the usual way of doing things, and discussion on the article talk-page with either keep or delete or merge !votes is not similarly the right way of doing things. Also if, as it appears, you are concentrating on only one editor's contributions, you may be laying yourself open to accusations of stalking. --Anthony Bradbury"talk" 17:08, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
- Anthony, as someone who has worked at WP:CCI I can confirm that Anna and Sitush have got more than enough evidence to file there. This is a very problematic editor. I will recommend that they file at CCI, so the i's are dotted etc, and an admin is on hand to edit history etc. CCI always has way more work than it can handle, and they are entirely welcome to try to sort out copyright issues having uncovered them. If you've not taken part in playing hunt the copyvio after a CCI is filed, I'm sure it does look exactly like stalking to the editor listed, as all their edits are up for examination.--Elen of the Roads (talk) 19:50, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Here is the link to the article I have created: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Troydamonsta/Mo_Sabri
This is the first time I am posting on talk so I apologize if I have done so incorrectly. Please let me know if you can undelete the article. Thank you for your time sir.

5/16/11
Thank you for your quick response. I have removed the social networking reference and added another legitimate local news source. After my changes, I believe this performer is notable due to two reasons:
1. Mo Sabri is notable because he has created a song that is the "official anthem of a notable state, region, province or territory" which is Johnson City, Tennessee (which is a notable region that is home to Steve Spurrier, Kenny Chesney, Phil Roe, and others; it is also home to bluegrass and other types of music). Since the song is the official anthem of Johnson City, Tennessee, it qualifies under the requirements of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_wizard/Musical_notability.
2. I have 2 total reliable references: one major local newspaper article reference and one major local television network reference. This satisfies the "subject of multiple published works" that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles requires. Full citation: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself." which includes "This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles or television"
For these 2 reasons, I believe Mo Sabri is notable. Please let me know what your thoughts are. I appreciate all your help.
Sincerely, Troydamonsta (talk) 16:32, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Declined Speey of In Memoriam 2014
[edit]Hi. You recently declined the speedy deletion of an article I tagged, stating that notability was shown. However, I am curious as to what actually denoted the group being notable in the article? I initially tagged it as an unnotable group because the article states that the group in question hasn't actually been launched yet, and is just projected to sometime later this year, and the fact that none of the references cited in the article actually talk about the group at all. They merely show that some of the stuff talked about within the article is notable, but not the group itself. While some of the concepts the article talks about are notable on their own, I still don't see how the article sufficiently explains how the actual subject of the article itself is a group notable enough to be included in the encyclopedia.

His support of hockey also saw India win gold in three successive Olympic Games in London (1948), Helsinki (1952) and Melbourne (1956)."

As i said, ATi is ATi, AMD is AMD. Regardless of the Buyout."
Which is true, AMD is merely Slamming their Logo on recent ATi GPUs. But ATi is indeed still making the GPUs, Not AMD, Regardless of the buyout.

I am listing them below as proof that the page should be kept, and the references should be added to the page. I hope they will suffice, if not, let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thank you.

Hello I requested Delores Chamblin (Duncan) deleted, NOT Delores Chamblin. I know the articles are the same. I simply wanted to remove (Duncan). Delores Chamblin (Duncan) appeared automatically when I created the article. I am new to Wikipedia and still learning how to use it Afridel (talk) 20:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Hello As requested I kept Delores Chamblin (Duncan) because it was created prior to Delores Chamblin. Reasons for deletion should be more specific and not broad generalizations. Afridel (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
Please specify what you are referring to from the article. Comments about this article are very generalized. Afridel (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
The above comment is regarding the article Delores Chamblin (Duncan). The article Delores Chamblin (Duncan) is being wikified, however Delores Chamblin is the one I want to keep. What is the best way to handle this? What I would like to do is indicate in the body of that article is that Delores Duncan is the birth name or former name. Basically all the content of Delores Chamblin (Duncan) should be at Delores Chamblin. I think both should be kept open to fix it unless there is another way to fix this.

What
[edit]Why was the article "Gordon Waterfield" deleted?
I just bloody made the article , i gave sources , hes written several books and played a key role in delivering news from the french campaign in WW2, he was also a broadcaster , so how does that make him not notable... ? Goldblooded (talk) 17:43, 23 June 2011 (UTC)
In reply to your comment ,
Hes an Author, Broadcaster and Journalist, So how can he not be notable? He was one of the main war corespondents in the French Campaign in WW2 Goldblooded (talk) 00:28, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Why do you have war correspondents on here whos only work is in Libya or authors who have only written one or two books? -_-
Goldblooded (talk) 00:28, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Fine i get your point, so what your saying is add to it and put more sources and references? Goldblooded (talk) 12:35, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
Oh and adding on to this, why is Christabel Bielenberg An acceptable article while mine wasnt, Their more or less the same , BOTH were war correspondents , BOTH were interviewed in world at war and BOTH wrote books ,So whats the deal? All my article Gordon Waterfield needs is some work and itll be sorted. Goldblooded (talk) 13:01, 27 June 2011 (UTC)

Your deletion of the Bruno Facciolo page in 2008
[edit]Why did you delete this page??? The reason you gave was "NN Gangster". What does that mean? I was interested in finding out if Facciolo was related to Carla Facciolo who currently stars in Mob Wives - but I can't tell because you deleted the page. I might note that you seem to delete an awful lot of pages - you make dozens and dozens and dozens of edits a week - as if you spend you life on Wikipedia. How in the world can you delete stuff if you are not familiar with the page's contents - you can't be familiar with everything in the world. Are you even aware that Bruno Facciolo is DEAD??? May I make a suggestion??? Instead of just going around and entirely deleting stuff, perhaps try to clean up the pages instead. What you are doing is making Wikipedia a less and less valuable resource.
- You wrote, "As you point out, I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it. It was deleted as being an uncontested WP:PROD, which is wholly appropriate assumimg that the deleting admin agrees with the rationale for deletion which in my personal view is uncontestable in the case of a non-notable gangster such as this one. To answer your further point, the articles states that he is dead, so clearly I was aware of that at the time. If you wish to comment on the functions of admins in the maintaining of the integrity of the encyclopedia, it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page. Without in any way wishing to give offence, I do not feel that I need to defend any of actions of mine to you."
- ANSWER - Again, I have no idea what an "uncontested WP:PROD" was, so had to go look it up and hope that I could understand it (I do not build my life around Wikipedia, thus do not know the in's and out's of it). No doubt it WAS uncontested - I mean, it might have only been looked at a couple times a week/month/year, and most readers are like me - we don't bother getting involved in these fights to get pages deleted/not deleted (some of the stuff gets so nerdy - I can't understand the Wikipedia abbreviations and have no desire to go chase down the links to figure out the arcane names mean - that is for "admnistrators" like yourself - the public sure isn't going to do it). We assume that, as an administrator, you are only going to make edits/deletions on subjects you are familiar with (aside from obvious vandalism). And here, you say that Faccciolo is a "non-notable gangster". Firstly, let me thank you for finally telling me what "NN" means. Secondly, who are you to say that he was "non-notable"? Are you aware that his murder was one of the murders that not only put the Boss, Underboss, and Acting Street Boss of the Lucchese family away, but was also one of the murders that put the so-called "Mafia Cops" in that spectacular case, i.e. he was murdered by New York City Police officers acting on the orders of Lucchese mafia family. I knew that name. And then I turn on the TV this year and watch the new "reality" show "Mob Wives" and see that one of the four mob wives is one Carla Facciolo, daughter of one-time Lucchese acting street boss Louis "Crossbay Louie" Daidone (yes, here is a Wikipedia page on him), and I said, "Wait a minute, is she related to the Facciolo guy who got rubbed out???", so I immediately went to Wikipedia . . . . . . and found that you had deleted the page. Thank you. To a mafia buff, all these murders are important to keep track of. Any mobster is notable because he fits somewhere on a mafia family chart (can't produce one from Wikipedia - too many names/pages have been "deleted"). This happens all the time on Wikipedia. A few months back, it was being proposed that the Motion Lounge page be deleted - even though it was actually portrayed in the movie "Donnie Brasco". Wikipedia is becoming less and less useful.
- You stated that "the article states that he is dead" - do you mean there is a way to look at the old deleted page??? - wow, I didn't know that - can you please give me the URL here/below - I don't know how to do that, and I would like to read it. Thanks for that. You would be doing me a favour - also, how do I find those pages???
- Okay, fair enough - you don't want this sort of talk on your Talk page - but you say, "it is better if you do it in a more generally accessed forum rather than my talk page". Then where??? I have no idea where to put this sort of question to you. Again, I don't know that much about the in's and out's of Wikipedia.
- Thanks in advance. Sorry if I offended you. I guess I was just letting off steam because when I saw the page had been deleted, I just thought, "There we go again!!!"
- P.S.--I might note that I know you are not an expert on the subject of the mafia. Do you know how I know that??? It's because you said, "I deleted this page; as it was in 2008 you will appreciate that I had some difficulty in remembering it." If you were interested in the mafia, or where an expert on it, you would have remembered it because the name Bruno Facciolo would have rung a huge bell in your head saying, "GUY WAS MURDERED BY NEW YORK POLICE DEPARTMENT OFFICERS ON ORDERS OF THE LUCCHESE MAFIA FAMILY!!!" The name may not mean anything to you, but it is important to people who study the mafia. I just don't understand all these administrators going around deleting pages on subjects that are not familiar with. It would be like me reading some page on some obscure physics problem and saying, "This isn't important - it is not notable". No, you don't have to explain your actions to me, but it is the combined huge number of deletions that go on that are making Wikipedia less and less useful, so, do what you want with it. There is so much missing from it that used to be here.
- P.P.S.--Now that I have written this much, it has come to mind that it would be informative to know just what criteria administrators use to determine "notability". Is is the administrator's idea or conception of notability??? If so, how could you determine, say, the notability of some obscure physics problem that some graduate student dreams up??? For that matter, how could you determine the notability of Bruno Facciolo??? I am now intrigued by all these deletions that are going on. Thanks in advance.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 20:08, 28 June 2011 (UTC)
- More - this is Bruno's brother, Louis: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Facciolo Do you think that page should be deleted as well (it mentions Bruno and his death). Or perhaps put Bruno Facciolo's page back up. It always amazes me when the people take all the time and effort to put up a page on a subject/person (thus helping Wikipedia), and then some "administrator" comes winging in and zaps the entire page, and then you research the "administrator's" contributions and realise that the person has created a life out of deleting other people's work because he isn't familiar with it. Wikipedia is going downhill because of this - it has a HUGE problem. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.154.11.20 (talk) 04:34, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

Trevor Sharpe Speedy Deletion Questions
[edit]Sorry I'm a relatively new user, and I have a question. a couple minutes (seconds?) ago I found in the "Recent Changes" a new topic that was made which turned out to simply be vandalism, so I at first just deleted all the text, but after realizing that didn't get rid of the topic I looked up the wikipedia rules on how to delete a topic and found the header that was to be placed for a "speedy deletion", which apparently worked, as you deleted it. Now my question is: Did I carry out that request for a deletion correctly? Soloman212 + tortoise (talk) 4:21 pm, Today (UTC−5) 16:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Dispositio Achillea
[edit]Your deletion of Dispositio Achillea seems to have been a mistake. Neither of the reasons for deletions given appears to be applicable. It is not a dictionary definition of anything (making it a candidate for Wiktionary) or the original text of a source (making it a candidate for Wikisource) but an article about a mediaeval document of obvious historical significance. Nor was it in a foreign language: the Google cache shows that it was in English. I don't personally care for machine-translations, if that was an issue, but this does not appear to have been one, at least not in its final state.
I suggest that you undelete it. If you were to apologize to the user who made the translation from the German, User talk:HansM, it would probably not go unappreciated. --Hegvald (talk) 10:31, 11 July 2011 (UTC)

I'd taken a look at their situation earlier today with Checkuser, and while the IP address they've recently been using is blocked, it is an anonymous only block that should not be affecting them. IP Block Exemptions are only given on an as-needed basis, so I'm not sure why you chose to grant one after I noted that on the user's talk page. I haven't removed the flag, but I was hoping to get a reply from the user to pinpoint what the problem was - it should not be a block. Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:53, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I would like to know why my Softgenetics page was deleted, given that I have already estabished notability by linking 3 independent papers on Softgenetics products (with their names in the very titles!) on the ncbi website. If ncbi papers don't establish validity, I don't know what does. Although the page was sparse, I was going to add more information. Please respond with what makes proper notability, or I will recreate the page. Given that it was up for only 1 day, I feel that not enough discussion (not at all really) went into the deletion of this article. --Pyrogen53 (talk) 15:06, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

The 8th Duke Gerald, my half brother, was my father's first son and not the third son as stated on the page. With regard to the information contained on the page relating to the 8th Duke's son Lord John FitzGerald, in the succeeded by box the name Adrian FitzGerald appears with a link to a totally different family.

Sock puppet (disambiguation)[edit]What exactly was wrong with "Sock puppet (disambiguation)" that you have deleted under G6? Though I am not exactly a novice here, I have not been able to figure out how to view what the content of the deleted page was. Your view that it was "unnecessary" may have been well-founded, but I now find that I need several well-aimed clicks backed by some previous knowledge about how WP is architected and how it works in order to get from "sock puppet" as a query argument to "sockpuppet (internet)" which I was looking for. One can imagine that a non-technical neophyte here might well give up in despair (if not disgust) before finding the information that s/he wanted. We would do well to remember that navigation is easier when we already know where everything is than it is for beginners who are new at this. Or is there something simple and obvious that I have overlooked? Your reaction may be emailed to piper@xs4all.nl or left on my talk page. Thank you for your time. Piperh (talk) 16:45, 20 August 2010 (UTC) Anthony, thank you for your prompt and courteous reply. You wrote: "If you search in the seachbox for "sockpuppet" then "sockpuppet internet" appears as a front page menu item. I have confirmed this statement while typing this message." Yes, I realize this, and if you will kindly reread carefully my message above, you will see that the problem arises not when "sockpuppet" is entered as a search argument, but rather when "sock puppet" (with a space) is entered by someone who may not be aware that this term is usually spelled without a space by fast-lane people who are familiar with technical internet jargon. My point is that we need to be kind to everyone. Many of the people most likely to come to WP looking for information know little or nothing about the subject they are researching, including what the conventional spellings are. That is why we ought to be generous and careful with how redirects and disambiguation pages are crafted. Can we agree that this is a fixable problem for "sock puppet"?

Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism.

Beeblebrox (talk) 16:32, 25 August 2010 (UTC) Request for rehabilitation[edit]My name is barryispuzzled and I saw your thoughtful offer to GEORGIEGIBBONS and thought that you might be able to help in my rehabilitation here. I write maths and logic puzzles for a UK national newspaper and also teach maths at an independent sixth form college in Oxford, UK. My website is here. A few years ago on Wikipedia, I created the Baconian theory article and contributed constructively to several other articles. Then it all fell apart. Over two years ago, I received an indefinite block here when I became embroiled in an edit war over the Shakespeare Authorship Question article. Outnumbered and frustrated by other editors, I started inventing sockpuppets, each with a different personality, some of them rather unpleasant (that is, I was rather unpleasant), to help me out on the discussion pages, and eventually (and bizarrely) I voluntarily admitted it here. At that point, I quit Wikipedia. I naively thought that other editors would find my confession of sockpuppets amusing, but instead I received an indefinite ban. When I wanted to continue editing again I came back under sockpuppets (similar to GEORGIEGIBBONS, over 30 in the last two years) but they were easy to discover. When the Baconian theory article I created started to receive large changes from one of the editors who had assisted in banning me, I disruptively attacked the article to get it protected by the admins. When editors succeeded in conspiring to blocking me, I invented new sockpuppets with silly names to leave ironic comments on their talk pages. I boasted that these editors would never keep me away because of the many internet cafes in London. My crime nowadays is not that I vandalise, or make no useful contribution, but that I use a sockpuppet, and when it’s identified my edits get deleted and I get thrown out again. So I’m now stuck in a vicious circle. I’m now starting a PhD on Sir Francis Bacon and really feel I can improve the articles about him but at the moment I can’t go anywhere near them. Having written books on recreational maths, there are also several such articles (e.g. Sleeping Beauty Problem) I’d like to assist with. I don’t want to keep inventing sockpuppets. I don’t want to feel excluded. I want to make a useful contribution. Of course, the original ban was entirely justified and I have no argument against it. But now I’d like to continue to develop articles as before the ban and for that I’m more than happy to keep within the rules. I really believe that both myself and Wikipedia can benefit from this. Could you please help out with a standard offer? (Please forgive this sockpuppet but I really don’t know any other way of contacting you. Feel free to delete it. If you feel able, perhaps you could leave a response at the barryispuzzled talk page.)

More significance to this article is how thousands of people world-wide are sending this man correspondence for his birthday.

Also, I actually work with Nightrage and I'm trying to clear up misinformation and duplicate/old/bad information about the band on various locations on the Internet. I know for a fact that one other member of the band created this Wikipedia page when Anders joined the band in an effort to spread more information about the band. But this is not what Wikipedia is for and it's my opinion that the page is redundant. Will you please reconsider? —Preceding unsigned comment added by FiskarensFiende (talk • contribs) 12:49, 26 September 2010 (UTC)
Elements[edit]Hi Anthony you deleted Elements rolling papers - it is significant can you please help me rewrite it in a way that you won't consider it a db-delete? Elements is a brand of rolling papers. Each pack is imprinted with ELEMENTS ULTRA THIN RICE PAPERS, and the saying GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, CARRIED BY THE WINDS AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE. File:Elementsmagnets.jpg In 2010 the saying was altered to reflect the use of wind-power in production; GROWN IN THE EARTH, NOURISHED BY THE WATER, POWERED BY THE WIND AND ALAS TO BE BURNED BY THE FIRE. Each sheet of Elements paper is watermarked with a criss-cross imprint. The manufacturer says that this imprint helps control the burn and prevent runs [9]. In 2008 Elements 1 1/4 sized papers received a magnetic closure system. This holds the pack closed when it's not in use, and helps protect the papers inside [10].
Luke Leighfield speedy deletion[edit]While this was a dreadful stub, the article included a credible claim of significance (charting recording), as well as references to what appear to be RS news coverage. I therefore think speedy deletion was inappropriate.

I first noticed this one, because the article Arsenal/Surrealist Subversion is on my watch list. He moved the talk page, but not the article, to a location which simply makes no sense. Looking at his contributions, I see that this was part of a long series of page moves I cannot even begin to attempt to sort out. So, I thought I had better bring this to the attention of an admin.

Incoming message[edit]Kieran sseed (talk) 19:05, 6 October 2010 (UTC) Hi, I am a bit confused about wiki. please bear with me as i may take a while to get to know how to use this. With reference to the deletion of the page i posted, law of sustainability. I have no objection to the theory and/or law of sustainability being added to the page on sustainability! I created a new page because personally i find it odd that there were not any pages on theory or law of sustainability. It's a very important subject. I have studied sustainable systems for some time now. I thought it about time I start the thread as there are other biologists, ecologists, engineers and systems thinkers that I'm sure would be interested in these theories - and add to them accordingly. Hope this message finds you Tony, Kind Regards, Kieran ps. I see you are a physician. Well look at all the cycles that happen in the human body: eating, sleeping, breathing, heart beat, cellular life cycles?? these cycles have all to be in balance with each other don't they? CSD:G5 for Nava Applebaum[edit]It appears that you have speedy deleted the article Nava Applebaum under CSD:G5, an article that had previously been deleted and restored per my request by User:Fribbler. To the best of my knowledge and based on a cached copy of the article, this was created well before any topic limitations were imposed -- the sources are dated as having been found in 2008 -- and the article is backed by reliable and verifiable sources. The subject of deleting such articles has been discussed at WP:ANI and there is no consensus there that articles created by this editor should be deleted. I would like to ask that the article be recreated and that any global decisions relating to this editor's contributions should be decided based on community consensus and any individual articles that might be subjects of concern be discussed at WP:AFD. Once restored, I am willing to make the edits to address any issues identified with the article. Alansohn (talk) 14:17, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

You may be right in your views, but they are inconsistent with the Manual of Style, which in this regard is the result of long and often heated discussion. I would appreciate you initiating discussion on change there, so that other editors may add their opinions. I am uncomfortable with the idea of individual exceptions to the MoS if the only reason for exception is that they have had your personal input, and I trust that you can understand my position in this regard. --Pete (talk) 14:48, 7 November 2010 (UTC) Thanks. I'll keep on doing what gives me pleasure: tidying up articles to conform to the MoS. Hardly police work, though - more like a dab with the polishing cloth! I'll keep an eye on your edits, and if I can spot any other areas where I can help, I'll let you know. However, it really would be better if you could read the Manual of Style for yourself. But not necessary - just add well-sourced content and other editors will come along sooner or later and tidy it up. --Pete (talk) 15:06, 7 November 2010 (UTC) Usages such as 1st February or January 2nd are plain enough, but the suffixes are superfluous and may be dispensed with entirely. losing no information.

Blocked user Thmc1 is abusing once again! PLEASE READ![edit]I want to report that someone I suspect to be blocked user Thmc1 (logged on as IP Address user:96.242.217.91 and sometimes user:151.198.55.159) may be trying to continue his/her use of Wikipaedia as a propaganda tool. This person, whicn I have reason to believe is Thmc1, is attempting to pawn his revisionist pro-NY views, citing un-reliable business/travel sites as his source. When others undo his edits for this very fact, what does he do? He comes back with a similar business/travel site and says "Here's your proof!". If you examine the logs carefully, you will notice that activity from IPs 96.242.217.91 and 151.198.55.159 were virtually non-existent prior to Thmc1 being banned in June 2010. Since then, both IPs have come alive with activity displaying behavior identical to Thmc1's- using business/travel sites as souces over & over again and making edits to the very same pages! In his quest to seek re-instatement, Thmc1 claimed that he had learned his lesson and would never abuse Wikipedia again. Apparently, he has not learned that lesson. You were right in refusing his requests, and I hope that this will carry over to what is happening now. I STRONGLY urge that you initiate an investigation, which will hopefully lead to blocking him out again.MBaxter1 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 18:55, 1 December 2010 (UTC).

Your deletion of this article denied any other Wikians the opportunity to assist and help expand the article, as what happened when I created the stub for J.A. Jones Construction. I began that stub and it has been greatly expanded by the community. I am sure that if you had gotten to it first you might had deleted it as well. The whole world is watching...

Lambda Olive Oil page deleted[edit]Hi, I see you have deleted the Lambda Olive Oil page two days ago because of "(G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion)" Could you please explain why it was regarded as adverting? Did I write something in the wrong way? I'm planning of rewriting the page of lambda, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time Tassosl (talk) 10:18, 4 April 2011 (UTC)

I agree that the latest revisions of the page needed to be deleted, but it seems to me that the earlier revisions, which contained warnings to the user about copyright problems, should be kept in the record, so perhaps it would have been better to have just deleted the relevant revisions, rather than the whole page history. I have restored the older history, but please let me know if you disagree.

Thanks for the advice[edit]I carefully read your comments on my page at that time, but i didn't replied as i was afraid, as most of the times my words were being used against me. Thanks. (Mahesh Kumar Yadav (talk) 18:58, 14 May 2011 (UTC)). Mo Sabri[edit]Hi there, I noticed you deleted the Mo Sabri page. I saw that it was created before without any references to reputable sources that explained his notability. However, I have written a new article and have linked it to newspaper articles and other reliable sources. Can you please undelete the article? My username is Troydamonsta. Here is the link to the article I have created: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Troydamonsta/Mo_Sabri This is the first time I am posting on talk so I apologize if I have done so incorrectly. Please let me know if you can undelete the article. Thank you for your time sir. Troydamonsta (talk) 05:11, 16 May 2011 (UTC) 5/16/11 Thank you for your quick response. I have removed the social networking reference and added another legitimate local news source. After my changes, I believe this performer is notable due to two reasons: 1. Mo Sabri is notable because he has created a song that is the "official anthem of a notable state, region, province or territory" which is Johnson City, Tennessee (which is a notable region that is home to Steve Spurrier, Kenny Chesney, Phil Roe, and others; it is also home to bluegrass and other types of music). Since the song is the official anthem of Johnson City, Tennessee, it qualifies under the requirements of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_wizard/Musical_notability. 2. I have 2 total reliable references: one major local newspaper article reference and one major local television network reference. This satisfies the "subject of multiple published works" that http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:MUSIC#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles requires. Full citation: "Has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable and are independent from the musician or ensemble itself." which includes "This criterion includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles or television" For these 2 reasons, I believe Mo Sabri is notable. Please let me know what your thoughts are. I appreciate all your help. Sincerely, Troydamonsta (talk) 16:32, 16 May 2011 (UTC) The Bugle: Issue LXII, April 2011[edit]

Flimibuff and User:JDavie[edit]You recently deleted Flimibuff, an article I tagged for speedy deletion as vandalism. The article's author seems to believe I am responsible for the article's deletion and was upset with the article being deleted. I did not respond to her comments, partly because they were somewhat troll-ish. Unfortunately, that led to this behaviour. I'm still not inclined to respond, but I thought I would bring it to an administrator's attention in case any admin observation or action is required here.

Declined Speey of In Memoriam 2014[edit]Hi. You recently declined the speedy deletion of an article I tagged, stating that notability was shown. However, I am curious as to what actually denoted the group being notable in the article? I initially tagged it as an unnotable group because the article states that the group in question hasn't actually been launched yet, and is just projected to sometime later this year, and the fact that none of the references cited in the article actually talk about the group at all. They merely show that some of the stuff talked about within the article is notable, but not the group itself. While some of the concepts the article talks about are notable on their own, I still don't see how the article sufficiently explains how the actual subject of the article itself is a group notable enough to be included in the encyclopedia.

Naval Tata[edit]Hi, Naval Tata was removed, The person in the hyperlink is a part of the history, of Indian history. He is connected in more ways than one. Father of Noel Tata, Noel is the Half Brother of Ratan Tata Separately linked: JRD Tata's father Jamsedji Tata, is the first cousin of Ratanji Dadabhoy Tata Separately Linked2: His wife is Simone Tata Each of these people are/have entrepreneur, industrialist, philanthropist, 'changed the course history' AND are extremely Rich. Which makes it important to be linked together. Please put it back up. Thanks Sunny (talk) 14:59, 29 May 2011 (UTC) Sunny Naval Tata 2[edit]I see, Well that does make sense. Then again you can go through these. Tata Archives for Naval Tata. And this small part of his biography. "Naval also played a hand in development of sport in India becoming the first President of the Indian Council of Sports and giving India its first ever floodlit hockey ground in 1958. His support of hockey also saw India win gold in three successive Olympic Games in London (1948), Helsinki (1952) and Melbourne (1956)." "“I am Indian first and last and a nationalist who is deeply conscious and proud of a priceless heritage of this great country.”, these lines are used in our history books." I would like to see the original text which was in the given page. Perhaps i can edit it. Yes, that would be most helpful. Please leave the earlier text. I will edit it and update it to best of my ability. Although i'm quite new to editing in Wikipedia. Perhaps i'll ask for some guidance from you if i need any? Thanks Sunny (talk) 17:28, 30 May 2011 (UTC)Sunny I have been[edit]I started contacting Dennis Via his talk page. But he deleted my "Sections". Then, I contacted him via the "Radeon R700" Talk page. And I told him that: "Incorrect, ATi is Still ATi Regardless. ATi is still designing these Chips, AMD is just Slapping their Logo on recent Graphics cards: Nothing more. As i said, ATi is ATi, AMD is AMD. Regardless of the Buyout." Which is true, AMD is merely Slamming their Logo on recent ATi GPUs. But ATi is indeed still making the GPUs, Not AMD, Regardless of the buyout. Yet, even as he knows this, He is still continuing to Edit the GPU Pages to look like AMD is making these GPUs. I would not see False Information to be shown, Thats why I'm "Doing this".

I am unsure the exact ways to go about things. I am very confused about the way things work, and how I am supposed to rectify that there is indeed notoriety. However, I have found many references citing her notoriety. I am listing them below as proof that the page should be kept, and the references should be added to the page. I hope they will suffice, if not, let me know if there is anything else I can do. Thank you.

I know the articles are the same. I simply wanted to remove (Duncan). Delores Chamblin (Duncan) appeared automatically when I created the article. I am new to Wikipedia and still learning how to use it Afridel (talk) 20:14, 18 June 2011 (UTC) Hello As requested I kept Delores Chamblin (Duncan) because it was created prior to Delores Chamblin. Reasons for deletion should be more specific and not broad generalizations. Afridel (talk) 23:15, 19 June 2011 (UTC) Please specify what you are referring to from the article. Comments about this article are very generalized. Afridel (talk) 00:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC) The above comment is regarding the article Delores Chamblin (Duncan). The article Delores Chamblin (Duncan) is being wikified, however Delores Chamblin is the one I want to keep. What is the best way to handle this? What I would like to do is indicate in the body of that article is that Delores Duncan is the birth name or former name. Basically all the content of Delores Chamblin (Duncan) should be at Delores Chamblin. I think both should be kept open to fix it unless there is another way to fix this.

Hes an Author, Broadcaster and Journalist, So how can he not be notable? He was one of the main war corespondents in the French Campaign in WW2 Goldblooded (talk) 00:28, 24 June 2011 (UTC) Why do you have war correspondents on here whos only work is in Libya or authors who have only written one or two books? -_- Goldblooded (talk) 00:28, 24 June 2011 (UTC) Fine i get your point, so what your saying is add to it and put more sources and references? Goldblooded (talk) 12:35, 24 June 2011 (UTC) Oh and adding on to this, why is Christabel Bielenberg An acceptable article while mine wasnt, Their more or less the same , BOTH were war correspondents , BOTH were interviewed in world at war and BOTH wrote books ,So whats the deal?

I was interested in finding out if Facciolo was related to Carla Facciolo who currently stars in Mob Wives - but I can't tell because you deleted the page. I might note that you seem to delete an awful lot of pages - you make dozens and dozens and dozens of edits a week - as if you spend you life on Wikipedia. How in the world can you delete stuff if you are not familiar with the page's contents - you can't be familiar with everything in the world. Are you even aware that Bruno Facciolo is DEAD??? May I make a suggestion??? Instead of just going around and entirely deleting stuff, perhaps try to clean up the pages instead. What you are doing is making Wikipedia a less and less valuable resource.

Now my question is: Did I carry out that request for a deletion correctly? Soloman212 + tortoise (talk) 4:21 pm, Today (UTC−5) 16:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC) Dispositio Achillea[edit]Your deletion of Dispositio Achillea seems to have been a mistake. Neither of the reasons for deletions given appears to be applicable. It is not a dictionary definition of anything (making it a candidate for Wiktionary) or the original text of a source (making it a candidate for Wikisource) but an article about a mediaeval document of obvious historical significance. Nor was it in a foreign language: the Google cache shows that it was in English. I don't personally care for machine-translations, if that was an issue, but this does not appear to have been one, at least not in its final state. I suggest that you undelete it. If you were to apologize to the user who made the translation from the German, User talk:HansM, it would probably not go unappreciated. --Hegvald (talk) 10:31, 11 July 2011 (UTC) The Bugle: Issue LXIV, June 2011[edit]

I'm somewhat confused about your actions regarding the user linked above. I'd taken a look at their situation earlier today with Checkuser, and while the IP address they've recently been using is blocked, it is an anonymous only block that should not be affecting them. IP Block Exemptions are only given on an as-needed basis, so I'm not sure why you chose to grant one after I noted that on the user's talk page. I haven't removed the flag, but I was hoping to get a reply from the user to pinpoint what the problem was - it should not be a block. Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:53, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Softgenetics[edit]Hello, I would like to know why my Softgenetics page was deleted, given that I have already estabished notability by linking 3 independent papers on Softgenetics products (with their names in the very titles!) on the ncbi website. If ncbi papers don't establish validity, I don't know what does. Although the page was sparse, I was going to add more information. Please respond with what makes proper notability, or I will recreate the page. Given that it was up for only 1 day, I feel that not enough discussion (not at all really) went into the deletion of this article. --Pyrogen53 (talk) 15:06, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
