Hi, and welcome to my User Talk page! For new discussions, please add your comments at the very bottom and use a section heading (e.g., by using the "+" tab, or, depending on your settings, the "new section" tab at the top of this page). I will respond on this page unless specifically requested otherwise. I dislike talk-back templates and fragmented discussions. If I post on your page you may assume that I will watch it for a response. If you post here I will assume the same (and that you lost interest if you stop following the discussion).

Peter Bradley-Fulgoni

[edit]

Dear Randykitty,

I recently tried to find the edit history of the page for Peter Bradley-Fulgoni and saw that it was deleted by yourself many years ago Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Peter Bradley-Fulgoni

I am a novice to Wikipedia, so I’m sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, I was wondering if there was any way I can request special access to the edit history for this deleted page?

Many thanks for your time Strangelooper (talk) 21:19, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hi, the Italian version of this article overlaps largely with this article, except for the reference bombing. I don't see much use in undeleting this. --Randykitty (talk) 16:49, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Thanks for your reply. I do not want to undelete the article (absolutely not!!!). I merely want to view an edit made circa 2011 on the English article. Is this possible without undeleting it? A very strange and specific request I know but nevertheless important to me. Strangelooper (talk) 21:31, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • It would help if you could tell me what exactly you're looking for. This is a bit cumbersome. --Randykitty (talk) 06:24, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    My apologies. The edit in question specifically concerns the sentence toward the end of the article “Peter is recognised as an inspirational teacher also giving piano and chamber music masterclasses”. The word “inspirational” was changed to something indicating the contrary, and it is possible that the name “Henry N******d” crops up somewhere (redacted to maintain privacy of a real person).
    The edit was made by an unregistered user with an IP starting with (my memory of this is foggy) 192.161… or something very similar.
    If it was not done in 2011 then it would be some time from the early part of 2012.
    I feel like it would be useful for me to explain the reasoning behind my request. It is purely of personal interest to myself and has very little to do with contributing to Wikipedia. I do not wish to revive or edit the article and would never do so to this or any related articles as per WP:COI. The edits in question resulted in the harassment of the editor. A recently renewed interest in these events has led to me searching for the article and its edit history to assess whether that harassment was justified.
    Sorry again for having roped you into this annoying task, I am aware there are much more pressing matters to be attended to on Wikipedia and I understand if you don’t want to bother with this. I am incredibly grateful for your help thus far.

Sinai (journal)

[edit]

@Randykitty:, shalom. I do not question for one moment your expertise and skill in judging the notability of academic journals and periodicals, but I would only add to your knowledge that, among countries, the notability of some journals may vary, depending on the language in which the journal is published. For example, the English-language academic journal, The Jewish Quarterly Review, has a far-higher bar of notability in English speaking countries than, say, its Hebrew-language peer, Sinai, and which latter has mostly a Hebrew-speaking readership. Still, this is not to diminish from its overall reliability and verifiable-nature when it comes to academic journals in use by scholars. I only wish to humbly remind a woman of your important standing on Wikipedia, the online encyclopedia, that the journal Sinai is held in the library holdings of the National Library of Israel.[1] Moreover, renowned Palestinian/Israeli scholars have throughout the years written articles for Sinai, among whom include Samuel Klein,[2] Saul Lieberman,[3] Ze'ev Safrai,[4] Yosef Qafih,[5] Zohar Amar,[6] among others. Does this not vouch for notability? Whatever your decision, I assure you that I still hold you in the utmost esteem. I see myself as always learning.Davidbena (talk) 13:36, 13 September 2024 (UTC) [reply]

@Davidbena (talk page watcher) For future use, please note that your "ping" to Randykitty will not have worked. The {{ping}} must be added in the same edit as you add your signature to a post. In this case she'll have seen the post anyway as it's on her own talk page, but if you had been trying to alert someone else to the discussion it would have had no effect as you weren't signing the post when you added it.
