Mill Creek Town Center

The article for the Mill Creek Town Center in Mill Creek, Washington was deleted last year due to lack of notability. The Town Center is easily the most visible and important part of Mill Creek, and I feel that if there is an article about Mill Creek (which there is), there should be an article about the Town Center. I'd like to rewrite the article if you're all right with that. Ekaune (talk) 03:37, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

Sure, go ahead. But make sure you address the notability issues so that it does not get deleted again. Greetings. --Tone 10:11, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

EmoTrance

Please could I have the deletion of the EmoTrance article reviewed, as per my discussion here: [1]. Alex Charles Kent (talk) 13:22, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Don't delete articles with sources. --Feu Follet (talk) 21:07, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Which one do you mean? --Tone 21:10, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Futurepop! It was a sourced article. --Feu Follet (talk) 21:13, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

I see. No matter sourced or not, it was deleted in a previous AfD discussion yesterday so if you disagree, take it to WP:DRV. Greetings. --Tone 21:15, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Turkish information on Kosovo

I found a translation from Turkish to English of a text from a XVII century traveler that mentions Kosovo, I believe it would be worthy mentioning that it was not 1800's the first time that Kosovo was used as a name for that administrative territory. About the theory of the name Kosovo being a Turkish name, I would agree that there is a gap of sources! Sot it is fair that you removed it. AnnaFabiano (talk) 15:21, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm fine with that, however, since the article is a bit controversial, you may want to discuss changes on the talkpage of the article first. Greetings. --Tone 15:23, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/2009 Australian network television schedule (weekday)

Hi. I'm not sure why you relisted this. I participated in the discuss so I inherently have a bias, but consensus seemed strongly on the side of deletion. WP:RELIST instructs to only relist discussions if they have been under-attended, so could you please explain your decision a bit? Cheers. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 15:49, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Yeah, I am in favour of deletion as well. However, there's an AfD on the pretty much same topic, US TV program, and I believe there should be a broader consensus because it affects several articles. Anyway, any admin can close it any time, no need to wait 7 days before closing now. Cheers. --Tone 17:47, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough, thanks for the explanation. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 02:46, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

As long as people are arguing about this one, it shouldn't go on ITN... that's all... --Tone 14:20, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

I suggest you not revert that addition again. This has been raised at AN and AN/I. I'm not uninvolved but I imagine there are plenty of uninvolved admins who would be willing to block you for edit warring if you did. ++Lar: t/c 21:08, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

I assume you haven't read my comment at the last revert. I have no intention of edit warring whatsoever. I invite you to constructively participate in future ITN/C debates so that such disputes won't occur again. --Tone 21:12, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

The antidote to insularity is wider participation. I think the better place to start seeking fresh eyes is on the guidelines themselves rather than the debates, but ya... glad to. Time permitting, of course. (Most of my en:wp time today was spent CUing). ++Lar: t/c 21:21, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, I know... there was some progress last year when we reshuffled the guidelines for the first time in a while. Needs more eyes for sure, after all, ITN it is on the Main page. Well, maybe something good will come out of this discussion today and more people will participate in future... who knows. Cheers. --Tone 21:28, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Note

Just a courtesy note that I've added Ted Kennedy back to Template:In the news per the increasingly strong consensus at WP:ITN/C. I apologize if I've stepped on any toes. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 20:51, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Don't worry. I've decided to step down here because this is really getting ridiculous. Interpretation of a consensus may be tricky in this case because both sides have relevant arguments. The criteria are not perfect, this we are aware of. There have been some attempts to make them better but this is what we have at the moment. It would be great if more people participated in the daily debates because ITN is seriously lacking staff and this is just a side effect of it. --Tone 20:59, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Luqman Ali

Tone,

I was wondering what copyvio problems there were for the Luqman Ali article (deleted June 2006) and if it would be alright to recreate one.

Thanks. Systems polk (talk) 02:23, 28 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi. The text of the article then was a copy of a website. If the link still works, you can find the content there. If you would like to recreate the article, you should write it in your own words and then it will be fine. Gretings. --Tone 19:10, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

Geographic locations

Hi. With all due respect, could I kindly ask why you think the geographic locations are "totally redundant?" Isn't that template there for a reason? Isn't it helpful? In peace, eu.stefan (talk) 16:03, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I agree it can be useful in article about cities but for countries, there is a map in the infobox and all the surrounding countries/seas/else are stated in the intro and linked. So, for that purpose, useless. Greetings. --Tone 18:09, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Actually, I also think it is too big and provides too little information/size in its present state. However, for articles without maps, I see it is somehow useful. Greetings. --Tone 18:19, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

OK, thanks for your explanation. I see your point there. Cheers! eu.stefan (talk) 18:21, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Just a hello

Hello there Tone, just wanted to drop a quick semi-annual note to say hello :-). Been awhile since I saw you around, guess we are just traveling in different circles now :-). Take care and I hope all is well. ShoesssS ^Talk 23:01, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey, long time not seen, indeed! Yes, everything is doing well, more or less, thank you. I hope you're fine as well. See you around. --Tone 06:59, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

Frank and Mary's Restaurant and Lounge

Since you've closed the AfD, are you going to delete the improper cross-namespace redirect left behind at Frank and Mary's Restaurant and Lounge? (If I may say so, I was hoping for a more definitive verdict on the AfD. The article's author keeps having this userfied, or moving it back into his userspace himself, whenever the possible deletion of it is brought up; and then he later moves it back into mainspace with no substantive improvements. I don't think there's ever going to be a sufficiency of reliable sources to sustain an article on this local eatery, and I wish that someone would just remove it from his userspace as well so that the kid doesn't keep fiddling with it and recreating it as an article.) Deor (talk) 21:21, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

I'll delete the redirect, thanks for spotting that. If the article is recreated in article space again, let me know. There's an easy solution for that, delete&salt. Greetings. --Tone 21:26, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

The article has been recreated once again: Frank and Mary's Restaurant and Lounge. Deor (talk) 12:46, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of schools in Romania

Hi, I would respectfully ask you to reconsider this close. A redirect, rather than a merge, is effectively a deletion. Your view may be that the list is useless but that was not the consensus of the discussion. Probably a 'no consensus' may have been the most accurate close. TerriersFan (talk) 21:40, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Could be, I considered it. Still, a list incomplete the way this one was is useless. As I've written in the comment, when there will be some motivation to create the other articles, the one in question can be brought back with one click without admin's assistance. I hope I've explained my actions. Greetings. --Tone 22:02, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

The problem with that is that it is highly unlikely that an editor will compile a comprehensive list from scratch. In general they need a basis to start from which is why we have stubs. I agree that this list, at present has little utility, but if left it will, hopefully grow and, when large enough, can be split into more definitive sub-lists. TerriersFan (talk) 22:30, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Deletion review for List of schools in Romania

An editor has asked for a deletion review of List of schools in Romania. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. TerriersFan (talk) 22:22, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

AfD closes

Although they did not match up with my preferences, I think your closes look very reasonable and well considered. Several popped up on my watchlist. Take care and have fun. ChildofMidnight (talk) 23:02, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Re: | Afd: Epilogue (web site)]

You 'closed the debate' before it was really closed. I had created the article and I asked for an explanation of 'NN,' and when I got the reply I explained why it is notable. Apparently it was deleted by then, but I would like to be able to make my statement in the debate.--Dchmelik (talk) 00:11, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Then, it is probably best if you rewrite the article in your userspace, addressing all the criteria, and then contact the original nominator to have a look. If it is ok then, just move it back to the articlespace. Greetings. --Tone 07:04, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

I guess also the problem is most/all the other Wikimedia wikis notify you of messages you want to read, but this one does not (and maybe there was a time limit.) Ok, I will try to do that, though I still do not know why it was nominated NN. I will have to see if there is a way I can get the article back since I wrote it.--Dchmelik (talk) 07:16, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

I can provide you the content, just tell me where shall I put it. The easiest way to be notified is to put pages on your watchlist, there's a button on the top of each page. Greetings. --Tone 07:26, 10 September 2009 (UTC)

Watchlists are not easy if you do not login. You could copy it here: User:Dchmelik/Epilogue_(web_site).

Yep, that can be a problem... Anyway, the content is there. Not much of a content but for a start... Cheers. --Tone 11:48, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

ITN

Hi Tone, any chance you could add the ITN notification to the talk page for Norman Borlaug (and please credit me for the nom!), it seems to have been missed when the update was done. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 09:30, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I am really not a fan of this ITN credits but I suppose sooner or later one of the regulars will put the boxes on the proper sites. Cheers. --Tone 10:35, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Ah, no probs. The item in question has been taken down and discussion is going on about whether to put it back up anyway so it probably doesn't even warrant it. Cheers - Dumelow (talk) 20:23, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Resistance projection welding Removed 9/12/09 ,10:05

Hi there -

Your introduction makes you sound like the friendly sort and I REALLY need that about now. I am having a lot of trouble figuring out the right way to post things (adding content, links, etc.) and getting them to stick. I'm having an equal amount of trouble figuring out how to use the 'talk' function to communicate on issues. Not very user friendly in my opinion!

Anyway - in reference to the above. Technical Sales Solutions (TSSA) the company/item you referenced in removing my data is a Sales Rep for Miyachi Unitek Corporation. The piece that they posted, Fundamentals of Resistance Welding, is OUR piece and any copyright belongs to Miyachi Unitek. Not TSSA. Now, I don't mind them having posted that, but I'd like it to refer/link to Miyachi Unitek - give credit where it's due. Furthermore, I'd like to know how it is that they were able to post that as a link somewhere when I've been completely unsuccessful in doing the same. Things keep getting deleted, I imagine, because they appear to be advertising where something like this piece is not - it's strictly informational.

Please help!

Miyachi Unitek 68.5.78.30 (talk) 18:24, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I can't tell you about the other one but let's have a look at the Resistance projection welding article. It got tagged as a copyvio - this means that the text was copied from another website and this is not ok with Wikipedia copyright policies. Considering the fact that the article is not very long, it can be recreated with little effort, just try to write it in your own words. If nobody tags the article as a copyvio, it will not get deleted as it happened this time and if there are any issues, you can discuss them on the talkpage. They are useful, once you get used to them. And people do use them. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. Good luck! --Tone 21:21, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Text not taken from another website. Taken directly from our published, copyrighted datasheet. See page 3 paragraph 1 in http://www.muc.miyachi.com/res_resources/pdf/FundamentalsofRW.pdf Can't paraphrase that - it is what it is. So the OTHER content - wherever it is on Wikipedia - should be removed. Not my entry. 64.94.102.20 (talk) 20:23, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Rivka Barry

Why was this entry deleted?

She is a major news item that people need to be able to research, the information was sourced and detailed, and in every way she embodies the kind of subject that Wikipedia members *should* be able to add to this database.

IT is easy enough to restrict an article to quotes and facts surrounding a controversy without Wikipedia taking sides, jsut as has been done with other controversial subjects. What on earth makes this one different? You've never been the kind to tiptoe around political correctcness, but is there any other explanation for this?

Refusing to allow information to be provided on a legal case that is of significance to millions of people, in numerous venues, seems arbitrary and incomprehensible. This case impacts numerous religious, legal, and political issues, and however it is ruled, will provide a pivotal precedent for future rulings in these areas. That people will need to research. By what remote stretch of logic do you deem it is inappopriate for a public encyclopedia?

(PS I'm guessing this is what the "asshole" comment referred to, for those reasons.)

I just saw a TV special explaining how Wikipedia was meant to be an encyclopedia "of the people" HOw is that compatible with this override?

Hi. I can't find the article, could you give me the exact title (with the proper capitals and all that)? Then I'll have a look, without the article I can help you here, really... --Tone 21:21, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Tiagong Akyat

• I want to contest over your deletion of the page. You claim that it was copywritten from a website. Even though, the story of the real person, "Tiagong Akyat" was taken from the WikiPilipinas page; the page for the Philippine informations. While the character and other information were taken from the show's website. To conclude, it isnt the wikipedia editors who copywritten the website, but its the website who took copyrights from the wikipedia page. --CocaCirca2009 (talk) 21:42, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Tricky one... well, in that case someone should contact that website and remind them to credit Wikipedia as a source of their content. However, since the series is very new, I believe it may be a little to late to have a separate article about the character, why not wait a couple of months and recreate the article then? Greetings. --Tone 17:04, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

Question

Now that some more ITNs have been posted (Precious, Northern Sea Route, etc.) and the two sports ITNs are no longer consecutively aligned, is there space for the 2009 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final? It seems odd to leave it out as it is more popular than hurling and there are still references to the game in the Australian media. --candle•wicke 23:41, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

I am still not really enthousiastic to have it on ITN... Opposition is quite strong at ITN/C as well. Hurling was more or less an exception, to feature an interesting sport and I would not use it as a precedent in this case. --Tone 07:18, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Israeli_theft_of_Arab_cuisine

Was SNOW really appropriate after all of 2 hours and 11 minutes? Was about to post a response to the AfD and edit-conflicted with you. nableezy - 18:45, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

After rethinking, it was maybe too early for a SNOW... What way was your comment heading? --Tone 19:01, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

I just happen to have it right here

Not sure, the comments above are correct as the title is inherently non-neutral and the article is not well-written. That said there is a topic here that could be an article, a NPOV article. Arab food in Israeli cuisine. An article on that subject could be informative, interesting and NPOV. As it stands now though this article has serious problems that would need to be addressed. But moving it Arab food in Israeli cuisine and performing a substantial rewrite could also be done. There is some material in here that is salvageable and would fit in such an article. Though maybe it would be better to just start from scratch on an article like that.

nableezy - 19:05, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

I agree completely with you, it is possible to write an article about influences but on the other hand, with a title like this and all the issues, it is better to start from a scratch. --Tone 19:09, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Sure. I suggest you create it under a different title and take into account what was said in the AfD and in the above discussion. A great deal will be done by that and improvements will be easier. Good luck ;-) --Tone 19:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

The article is about the believe amongst some people that Israelis have "stolen" Arab cuisine, so what should it be called? --Supreme Deliciousness (talk) 19:13, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Arab food in Israeli cuisine is a good start. And there can be a section about some people's perception of the influence. Or, maybe similar articles already exist and would just need expansion. --Tone 19:20, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Poker Pack

Hi, will you please take a second look at this close? I identified a number of references that would meet the sourcing concern. Even the nominator acknowledged that they were sufficient to support a stub after the unencyclopaedic list of successes was removed. The only other contributor simply failed to address the sources that I found and made a generalised statement without considering the pros and cons of the notability of this group of people. I think that this should have been a 'no consensus' at worst. TerriersFan (talk) 23:49, 26 September 2009 (UTC)

Just adding my thoughts here since I missed the deletion discussion and it says to post here instead of in the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.111.130.44 (talk) 04:42, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

Well, in that case it should be easy to find enough 3rd party sources to add to the article - lack of those was one of the reasons why it got deleted. Maybe it's better to start writing from beginning or if you want, I can provide you the old content. Let me know. --Tone 11:40, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

"Undid revision 320593889 by Proger - redundant to map and intro. no reason to have this template in the article" - Why? Example Turkey. :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Proger (talk • contribs) 05:39, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

It is redundant there as well, same reasoning ;-) Greetings. --Tone 14:26, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

But why? :) I think, this is not :) --Proger (talk) 16:04, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Well, it is basically duplicating the information. Countries articles all have a map in the infobox and all the surrounding countries listed in the introduction (with geographical position). Besides, the template occupies disproportionally big amount of place in the article... --Tone 16:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

O`kay. Thank you :)--Proger (talk) 12:36, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

2160p

Hi, Tone. You recently closed the AfD for 2160p. GraYoshi2x has changed it to a redirect. Axl ¤ [Talk] 07:51, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Hi. This is an editorial issue, AfD outcome is not really relevant here. If you feel the article needs to be brought back, just revert the redirect. Greetings. --Tone 14:26, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

muneshige tachibana page

hi i added a page on muneshige tachibana but it has been deleted as copy right of samurai wiki -is samurai wiki not part of wikipedia so why would it be deleted if it is being but on your main wikipedia page and also mot of it was re-edited so not to look nearly the same and had parts removed from it to make sure of this —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hurleyma (talk • contribs) 12:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Nope, that wiki is not a part of Wikipedia. I suggest you start the article from scratch so that there will be no problems with copyright. Greetings. --Tone 13:47, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Health effects of wind power

Hi, I thought you might be interested to know that Kerberos, who created the Health effects of wind power article you previously closed the deletion discussion for, is currently recreating the article in his sandbox. This version of the article seems to be more focused on Nina Pierpont and Wind turbine syndrome than the previous version was (those articles' deletion discussions can be found here and here). As this creation is in his userspace, I am unsure how to proceed, but it seems to me that if Kerberos moves the article into the mainspace in its current form, it should be speedily deleted for exactly the same reason as it was previously deleted - rst20xx (talk) 19:53, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

I am concerned about these developments also. Tone, isn't there some policy about re-creating deleted articles in user space? Agree that the article should be speedily deleted if brought to mainspace, as the re-created article is substantially the same as before. Johnfos (talk) 19:52, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Indeed, if the article is brought back to main space, it can be G4 speedied. Otherwise, if it remains in userspace, this is ok as long as there are no BLP, advertising or similar issues. I hope this helps... --Tone 15:45, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

OK thanks, I'll keep an eye on it then - rst20xx (talk) 20:26, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

This unsatisfactory situation continues, yet Wikipedia:User page#Copies of other pages says "While userpages and subpages can be used as a development ground for generating new content, this space is not intended to indefinitely archive your preferred version of disputed or previously deleted content ... Wikipedia is not a free web host." -- Johnfos (talk) 06:53, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

True. If you think this is violated, you should take it to WP:MFD. I don't feel comfortable with deleting the content straight away because it's not in the article space but if the outcome of MFD is delete, then you can always point me the recreations and they can be deleted easily. Greetings. --Tone 17:50, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/User:Kerberos/Sandbox -- Johnfos (talk) 21:18, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Just wanted to tell you.

On the Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/MechScape_(2nd_nomination), you made a redirect to User:Jeremjay24/MechScape. That page was actually a redirect to MechScape, due to moving by User:Gordonrox24. It now remains a redirect loop, so could you please change the status into Delete and delete the MechScape page and my userpage? You got my approval. Jeremjay24 02:02, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, done. Greetings. --Tone 07:49, 7 November 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of cats with fraudulent diplomas

While I agree with keeping the page, closing an AfD you voted in is almost always inappropriate. To avoid the inevitable drama, I recommend reverting your close and leaving it for another admin. I won't make a big deal of it though. –Juliancolton | ^Talk 00:57, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Page protection

You protected The Fame: Monster after this AfD discussion, but you did not protect The Fame Monster, causing the article to be re-created again and again. Would a full protection be possible? Thanks, Dale 13:38, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Done. Greetings. --Tone 14:09, 8 November 2009 (UTC)

Oh dear! It appears to have happened again at The Fame Monster (album). May I suggest the following articles be protected as a redirect to The Fame to save this happening again?

• The Fame Monster (album)
• The Fame: Monster (album)
• The Fame Monster (2009 album)
• The Fame: Monster (2009 album)
• The Fame Monster (Lady Gaga album)
• The Fame: Monster (Lady Gaga album)

Thanks again :) Dale 01:48, 10 November 2009 (UTC)

The Fame Monster

Hello,

I've noticed that you've protected "The Fame Monster" article (Lady Gaga's album). Well, let me tell you that you shouldn't redirect it to "The Fame" because of a very important reason: It's no longer being released as "The Fame" re-release, instead it's being released as her second studio album (stand-alone cd) and will chart as that, as her Second Album. It will also have a deluxe edition including "The Fame" tracks (2 cd), but that's only the "deluxe edition", the standard edition will ONLY include the 8 tracks from "The Fame Monster". She confirmed it on a very recent interview (3 or 4 days ago I think), just in case you haven't been informed.

I think that "The Fame Monster" deserves its own article, as it's no longer related to "The Fame".

Thanks --DanV (talk) 18:49, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I'm probably not the best person to present arguments to, I just did the admin work. You should talk to user who proposed a redirect at the AfD and if they are fine with the new situation, I can easily fix the redirects back to the previous state. Greetings. --Tone 05:45, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Just a quick addition here. I know you just did the admin. work, but where is this AfD? I'd like to have the person who nominated The Fame Monster for AfD take a look at the comments here. The 8-track disc is now undisputably a standalone album and needs to have its own article for the sake of Wikipedia. I'll check your contributions to find this AfD as well and locate the nominator. CycloneGU (talk) 15:40, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Found it. Look at the dates in the AfD. Look at the dates of the current sources. The nominator isn't clear, but the age of the AfD in light of the new material demands the page be recreated with the new material. CycloneGU (talk) 15:45, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

All fine with me. Could you just talk to User:Dalejenkins, who nominated the article, so that this thing is fine after that? Then, I can easily remove protection from the article so it can be brought back. Greetings. --Tone 16:32, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Done. I've asked in general for other editors to not add on, but if you wish to say something there, by all means. I've asked him to check this page in any case. =) CycloneGU (talk) 16:51, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

UPDATE: Explicit has unprotected the page based on MTV's report of Gaga herself referring to the project as an EP. This makes sense for an 8-track collection, and for now it sounds like we're going to treat it as such unless other sources (AllMusic, per se) say otherwise, at which point we can change the classification.

I'm going to take the time to recreate the page, and will be very careful to source it as I go. I'll keep an eye out for any edits reversing the creation of it. CycloneGU (talk) 18:37, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

The Fame Monster IP Edits

IP edits are constantly trying to change the type to a studio album when it's actually an EP at the moment. Can we semi-protect the page again so only established editors can edit it? So far I've reverted these edits. CycloneGU (talk) 21:51, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

Done. For one week, I think it should be enough for now. --Tone 08:11, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Regarding deletion of Thomas Goggin

Good day, you were the closing admin for the Thomas Goggin AfD. There is currently an RfD for Thomas goggin, which had a concensus of keep prior to the target page being deleted. Could you speedy delete the redirect under G8 if you have the time? I will list it as such now, however I felt I would inform you. Happy editing, --Taelus (talk) 09:29, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Thank you, have a good day! --Taelus (talk) 12:20, 13 November 2009 (UTC)

Deletion of topics - Network Node Manager ...and... HP Network Node Manager

The HP OpenView topic references Network Node Manager which was the foundation product for much of HP OpenView. The Network Node Manager page was renamed to HP Network Node Manager, and then later I think you deleted the HP Network Node Manager page. One reference for the deletion say the software was obviously not notable, but it was the foundation of the large success of HP OpenView products. Another point suggested the product was not notable/memorable due to being referenced only from the HP site. I find that very unlikely. I do suspect HP did everything it could to make it's pages come up first in a search, though. It was and still is a key HP brand. Another point said the content was limited, but I don't know about that point -- the content is even more limited now (deleted).

I am new at Wikipedia management, and not familiar with the decision process. Has this page deletion topic been raised before?

Appreciate your time to read and respond to me.

Alan (removed mail for anti-spam purposes) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Acarwile (talk • contribs) 17:09, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. In short, the article was way to short that the notability could be established (actually, it was not written why it is notable). Every article has to fulfil this requirement. So, basically, my suggestion is wither to start the article from the beginning and write more about it or, as someone else suggested, merge the info about this product to one of the HP articles and leave a redirect. I hope this helps. Greetings. --Tone 17:25, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/New album

You closed this AfD with a consensus of delete, but I noticed the main article New album - Rotting Christ has not been deleted. There were some issues related to page moves, so I'm guessing this was an unintentional oversight on your part. Was it? KuyaBriBri^Talk 03:08, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Yes, probably this was the case, the script deleted a redirect page but left the new one. Manually deleted now, thanks for noticing. --Tone 09:59, 17 November 2009 (UTC)

Regarding deletion of Robert Gimson

Hi,

I am an active booster for CMU Football, and I wanted to put some of our record holders up on Wikipedia. The first name I went to enter came up as a deleted entry, and said I should contact the admin (you). How do I go about getting this deleted page back up?

Everything can be verified in the History section of the website http://www.cmu.edu/athletics/sports/football/index.html

Please let me know,

Thanks!

Hi. I could bring the article back but it won't last long before someone else tags it for deletion. The problem is that the guideline WP:ATHLETE says that a player has to play for a professional league and this is college football. On the other hand, the article was deleted almost 2 years ago, if there's some new content, it could be added. Greetings. --Tone 16:26, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi Tone. Thank you for the quick response. I'm just trying to understand the situation as best I can. Almost any Division I College Football player I can think of can be found on Wikipedia. I understand this is a less prestigious football program, but I'm only seeking to add the major record holders, which to many of our alumni and D3 football enthusiasts would certainly be considered of interest. Can you please clarify for me.

And it would be great if you could bring back the article.

Thanks again! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Footdball3 (talk • contribs) 16:45, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. The article is back now. For further details, I believe you'll find much more useful help at one of the Wikiprojects, maybe Wikipedia:WikiProject College football. Good luck! --Tone 16:49, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

Noteworthy Article?

Hi. My name is Sean Wolfington and you recently decided to delete the article written about me and it was then deleted. Over a year ago i recieved a message that someone wanted to delete the article but other people decided to keep the article after making edits and adding references. Since i am not very familiar with Wikipedia I wanted to find out why the article was not noteworthy. In addition to not being noteworthy some people said it was self-promoting. This is not true. I discovered this wikipedia page when i googled my name for something else. A freind showed me how i could update it and i updated it so there was more accurate information and then i was told i should not do that. Since that time i never updated it again.

Since i don't know alot about Wikipedia i asked a freind and they suggested i provide information to the people on the business page of Wikipedia to get their oppinion of wheter the article is noteworthy and i wanted to give you additional information that was not on the article you deleted to see if that may change whether the article is noteworthy.

Here is a summary of my background so you can evaluate whether it is noteworthy. All of this information is available through major news outlets and some of it was referenced in the article that was deleted, which i thought was the criteria for determining if something was noteworthy... but again i don't know alot about how this site works. Below is my background information, please tell me if any of this is noteworthy. Some of the information was not in the original article and the additional information may effect whether the article is noteworthy.

Here is my background: I am an Entreprenuer and a film maker. I founded and sold 2 technology companies by the age of 34. The first company, HAC Group which operated as Cyber Car and Automark, sold for $200 million (article with info can be viewed at: http://www.nytimes.com/2000/04/18/business/company-news-reynolds-reynolds-to-buy-hac-group-for-200-million.html) and the second for $125 million dollars of enterprise value (BZ Results article- http://www.dealerrefresh.com/adp-buys-bz-results/ - there are many articles about these companies but these are links i just found). My company was recognized as the "Innovative company of the year" from Auto Success Magazine along with SAP (http://www.autosuccessonline.com/leadership.aspx) and I was a finalist for the Ernst & Young "Entreprenuer of the Year" when i was 34 years old and a few months ago was recognized by Haute Living Magazine as one of the top 100 most influential leaders in the Haute 100 (view at:http://www.hauteliving.com/?s=sean+wolfington). After selling the second company, I started a film production company where i financed, produced and distributed the first film myself (Bella)and it was the #1 top grossing film in its category. (here is an article i wrote for the Huffington Post about it- http://www.huffingtonpost.com/sean-wolfington/what-i-learned-about-maki_b_102704.html and LA Times wrote an article about it - articles.latimes.com/2007/dec/04/entertainment/et-bella4) It also was the #1 rated movie on Yahoo, NY Times, Fandango and Rotten Tomatoes while in theaters and it is currently one of the top 50 Rated Films of All Time on Yahoo and it was the #1 Rated movie of 2007 by the users of the largest film review site in the world, RottenTomatoes.com. After that i produced 2 other films including a new motion picture called Mighty Macks (you can view at IMDB http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1034324/ and you can view my film history at http://www.imdb.com/name/nm2055676/). In addition to the film production company i currently own 6 companies in the technology, real estate and entertainment industries.

I can provide more information but this is a summary of my background. Please let me know if you believe this is noteworthy enough. Thank you. Seanwolfington (talk) 05:31, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Well, this reads good. However, when the article was deleted, it did not contain any of those information so it's a bit hard to say from that point of view... I suggest you bring the article to the WP:DRV and present the new arguments, they will direct you how to proceed. I hope this helps, good luck. --Tone 17:47, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for your quick response. What is the WP:DRV and how do i bring the article to them? Also, is it possible to view the old article because other editors edited the article and added references that would be nice to have if i am going to submit something to someone. Thanks again for your advice. Sean.Seanwolfington (talk) 05:05, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. DRV, deletion review, is a process where a revision is made of the articles that were deleted through one of the deletion mechanisms. Admins will have a look at the article (an admin can view the deleted history) and new evidence you can present and wil then decide whether it is possible to bring the article back. All the instructions are at that page. Le tme know if you need any help. Greetings. --Tone 08:03, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Biotitiative page deletion

Hi, Tone

You deleted the BioInitiative page on 19th June 2008 due to reasons that are very unclear to me. http://deletionpedia.dbatley.com/w/index.php?title=BioInitiative_Report_(deleted_19_Jun_2008_at_21:51)

Things have moved on since then and the BioInitiative Report has been widely cited and discussed around the world (including by various Governments and the European Environment Agency) and from the many comments I hear damage Wiki's reputation w.r.t. Wiki deleting it so that moderated public debate can take place around it. The BioInitiative Report was not written by a bunch of activisits. Most of the authors were respected professors at leading universities (with masses of peer-reviewed paper citations) who believe that it was long past time the EMF/health debate was widened. By deleting it you went against what I believe is the whole essence of what Wiki is about.

In March this year (2009) on-line and in August in print, the Elsevier Journal Pathophysiology has published (with proper peer-review) revised copies of all the chapters. See: http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/524214/description#description

Pathophysiology (Elsevier) Volume 16, Issues 2-3, Pages 67-250 (August 2009) Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) Special Issue

So, I am formally asking you to reconsider and undelete and re-instate the page (with a short note about the deletion and re-instatement) and provide the link to the Journal issue where the current version of the BioInitiative papers may be found. Maybe even list the individual papers as full citations? I can prepare that for you if that would be helpful.

I look forward to a positive response. Regards Alasdair Philips (mail removed) www.powerwatch.org.uk —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.136.212.32 (talk) 14:53, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. That article was deleted in the proposed deletion process, pretty routine thing. A tag was placed on the article and since noone objected to deletion (people review those nominations and if they find the nomination reason bad, they remove it - apparently, noone did this time), it got deleted after a week. The standard policy in such cases is that if a deletion is contested (as you just did), the article is simply brought back (what I'll do just now). Since you say there's been new development and new sources in the last months, I invite you to incorporate them in the article. Let me know if you need any help. Greetings. --Tone 21:46, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

Many thanks. I have extensively edited the page and hope that I have complied with Wiki requirements. I have inserted several caveats, some of which will be able to be removed later. I have also tried to set the purpose of the page into world EMF debate context. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alasdairmp (talk • contribs) 19:51, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Restoration of deleted articles to userspace

I'm asking you, since you were the deleting admin: Would you please restore all of the articles deleted as a result of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Grand Prix 2005 (snooker), to my userspace, e.g. as User:SMcCandlish/Grand Prix 2005 (snooker), etc.? That AfD simply ripped a hole in that series of articles, half of which are still standing. The issue with them can be fixed by addition of prose with sources. Or maybe the lot of them can be merged in some way. Or something. I'd just like to have the content to work on myself, and for WP:SNOOKER to have a chance to do something with it all that will survive AfD. It was a lot of work to compile and source all of this perfectly valid information, which does not violate WP:NOT except by a pretty torturous [mis?]interpretation of that policy. I'm not disputing your finding of "delete" consensus, such as it was (I don't think anyone from WP:SNOOKER even knew the AfD was happening). I just think the material is reparable, userspacing is commonplace, and I already have a history of fixing nuked articles (see, e.g., Albinism in popular culture, a sourced, stable rewrite of Evil albino stereotype which was AfD'd into the bit-bucket). — SMcCandlish [talk] [cont] ‹(-¿-)› 12:44, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Sure, no problem. There it is. If you can work on the article, it will be nice because when it was deleted, it was in awfully poor shape... Greetings. --Tone 20:23, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Tone, thank you for your continous efforts to improve Wikipedia. I wanted to leave you this note to explain the change to the Kosovo infobox. That change stems from continous discussions and consensus reached. There was a vote that was taken and ended up 10-1 to the change. Please see the discussion page in "Infobox", I have made the last three entries (and several others). We cannot have South Ossetia with one infobox and Kosovo with three. The merge into one single infobox with a coat of arms and flags was needed and was successfully made. Thank you for your time. user:sulmues----Sulmues 16:08, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

This is somehow better with all the improvements than the version I've reverted but I am pretty sure that not everyone will find that this a consensus. Anyway, this is not a priority topic for me at the moment so I'm staying out of this discussion. --Tone 16:34, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

A page for The Canon Logic

Um hello! I have never published a Wikipedia article before but I have spent the last few months writing one about the band The Canon Logic. I was excited to finally be able to publish it when I discovered that pages had been written about the band before, and they had all been deleted! I believe you deleted the most recent one, on the grounds that they do not meet the criteria required for WP:Band. So my question is, will I be able to publish my article once their debut album comes out? Will they be meeting the criteria then? It should be out very soon, in the next couple months. There is a lot of information out there about them on the internet, and I think it would be nice to have it all in one easy-to-find place so fans can learn more about them! Also I was wondering if working on Wikipedia is a full-time occupation for you, or if you just do this in your free time. Because you seem to do so much on here, whereas it took me forever to write this one article! Just curious. Thanks! Brittl33 (talk) 22:35, 27 November 2009 (UTC)

Hi. Well, just a debut album is not enough to meet the WP:BAND, but, as the guideline says, if the album gets lots of coverage/gets awards/comes to some music charts..., then it should be fine. So I suggest you wait a bit for the reception. And no, WP is not a full-time occupation for me, just free time. But I've been around a bit so I suppose I have some experiences. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. Greetings.

Invitation to comment

Hi Tone. I am Cargoking and you probably have seen me around ITN. I have identified you as an ITN regular, so I thought I would inform you of a discussion opened on 5 December 2009. MSGJ suggested on Arsonal's (who's fairly new to ITN) talk page, that ITN suggestions made on the candidate's page would be put on separate pages, such as Wikipedia:In the news/Candidates/2009-12-05. The past seven days of discussion would be automatically transcluded. "This would avoid the need for archiving and it would also leave the history of the page intact. It might also make it easier to create new days because we can use preload templates, etc." The only disadvantage to this proposal would be that each new comment would not show up on people's watchlists. You are invited to take part in discussion here. Thanks,  Cargoking  talk  17:37, 5 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi. The proper channel will be deletion review. Since there was a rough consensus that the article should be deleted, the new arguments should be presented there. WP:DRV. Greetings. --Tone 22:11, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

The National Society of Leadership and Success page deletion

Hello,

It seems you deleted the page for The National Society of Leadership and Success (Sigma Alpha Pi), one of the largest leadership/honor societies in the US with more than 80K members.

Was there a content issue that could be addressed, or can you perhaps explain how you felt it wasn't relevant?

Thanks!

Deletion of "List of camera clubs in Ireland"

Could you advise why the page "List of camera clubs in Ireland" was deleted?

This page was used quite regularly & was very handy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.42.193.235 (talk) 18:28, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi. The article was deleted after a discussion. Simply, the reason was that WP is not a directory. Greetings. --Tone 20:38, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

WP:ITN Credits

Hi Tone. If you get a chance, could you check the conversation at Wikipedia_talk:In_the_news#Contributions? Just a discussion about a WP:ITN posting you did that you may have forgotten credits on. Thanks! --Shirik (talk) 06:30, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I was never a fan of posting those credits... Could someone else do that? Thanks. --Tone 11:05, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
