Not done - the article cannot be restored as it was identified as advertising. If you create an account and attach an email address, however, we can email the text of the article to you for improvements. Regards, Arbitrarily0 (talk) 01:52, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
Insufficient information available online for Champion Ruby's explaining ingredigents, affects on the human body and nervous system and addictive levels.
To whom this may concern,
I have decided to quit smoking in the last couple of weeks and its only been then that have been thinking about these last 7years- what have i really been smoking and do other people think the same as me? After many hours of searching throughing numerous pages online i found nothing that could of gave me some kind of indication on what was in the packet i smoked- not even there average strength. Actually sorry i should correct myself there, i did find some reviews but they weren't warning people on the affects. It was more advertising the great 'taste & flavour'. Hmmm so yes by the end of it all i was quite disgusted with the effort of warning by all, as you can most probably tell by my letter by now.
Wikipepedia- (you guys) are the only people in the whole world that have done a full review on other ciggarets! So why has it been deleted for champion ruby???? We need more awareness... before our kids and gran-kid see these websites & see it as 'cool' and not see the mouth & lung cancer and yellow teeth etc before its too late. Help me, help you, help the kids and get it back up.
Yours sincerly

I have already mentioned that this does not contitute copyright infringement because the information that i posted are publicly available not only to the first gen corporate website but listed in several websites such as the philippine stock exchange, department of energy and other references. I am working for first gen and i am the one who wrote the article, including the references, news websites and even wikipedia references, i am not sure why jimfbleak keeps on deleting my article, i truly felt harrassed. kindly review the article before deleting it. -Sunkissedguy (talk) 08:31, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
Not done and will not be done. You do not understand copyright law. The fact that this is publicly available does not make it free to copy; the fact that you say you wrote it is not enough, because we have no way to know that someone on the end of a wire is who he says. Wikipedia will not accept material copied from elsewhere unless a formal release has been made as described in WP:Donating copyrighted materials; and even then, material from a company's website is likely to be too promotional for an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not a business listing directory. If you work for First Gen, please read the guideline on WP:Conflict of interest. JohnCD (talk) 09:04, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Vodacom Challenge 2008
This is currently a redirect to the main Vodacom Challenge article. However, I certainly feel that this page should be brought back. The afd discussion about it was very limited both in terms of its number of contributors, and the points that it made.
The Vodacom Challenge may not have been supremely notable back in 2008, but it has since grown in stature significantly, and is Africa's answer to the Audi Cup. In this case, the recent history of the tournament becomes more notable, as fans are more interested in the history of the competition.
There are many similar articles already in existence. There are Vodacom Challenge articles for 2009 and 2011 (there were no fixtures in 2010), as well as 2006 and 2007, but oddly no 2008.
Please reconsider this request. RedvBlue 22:33, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
Not done As per the instructions at the top of this page, articles that went through AFD cannot be undeleted here. You will need to take this to WP:DRV (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 22:44, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
- It says: "articles for deletion debates with little or no participation other than the nominator". I would have described that discussion with little participation other than the nominator. RedvBlue 23:14, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
- ...and? I see a nominator, a merge !vote, and a delete !vote ... that's certainly more participation than just the nominator (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 23:17, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Not done and will not be done The article in question went through AFD with more discussion than many articles that have been AFD'd. It cannot be undeleted in this forum. Please use a policy-based discussion at WP:DRV (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 23:34, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
- Alright, but I would like to say that if there are articles being deleted with that little participation in the debate, and they are not allowed to be brought up here, then there should be a review into the procedure. RedvBlue 23:45, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
- I agree. However creating a third process (or expanding this process to include marginal AfDs and CSDs) would involve a lot of pushing boulders uphill. Rather than spend energy fighting policy and bureaucracy battles we created this page to serve as an easy answer for some common use cases. Eventually we will simplify the undeletion process so there are more options (or just better options) for new editors but that isn't the focus right now. Protonk (talk) 23:53, 7 September 2011 (UTC)
- Doesn't this page already include the marginal ones, though? It says "debates with little or no participation other than the nominator". I guess that my take on what is little is different from another's. Anyway, this is all rather disillusioning, and I think that it's best for me to wait until the process becomes simplified.

- We really need to change what it says in the introduction. The language regarding little or no participation was added in light of this discussion: Wikipedia talk:Articles for deletion/Relisting straw poll. It refers to AfD debates that are relisted twice and still no discussion occurrs so instead of relisting a third time, the debate is closed as a "soft delete"—the equivalent of a PROD because there was no actual discussion.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:20, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
- So, will it be changed? I did actually look at the other place first, but then I came here, read the introduction, and from that I realised that this was exactly the page that I was looking for. Anyway, it is more important to know when the process, itself, will be changed. Yes, this may not have turned out to be the right place for me to make my request, but I don't think that that should matter. People could have been much more helpful. My argument for undeletion is clearly stronger, and it wouldn't have taken anyone else a couple of minutes to realise that. Yet, the article still hasn't been restored. The system now is way too complicated. Why not have just one page for all undeletion requests, and label the ones which need a greater review in a different colour, or something like that, so that they can be clearly identified for the people in charge. In that situation, people could just propose what they want, and then it would be up to the people who know about these things to decide how to deal with it. That would be a lot easier for people like me, who can't really tell. RedvBlue 00:17, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

William S. Tribell
reasoning -Cillaf1 (talk) 22:01, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I am creator of a page dedicated to an up and coming professional poet by the name of William S. Tribell. It has taken me some time to gather up all links etc. so I am not sure what I could have done wrong and why this page was up for deletion as I think there is more then sufficient resources for this site.
Is there anything I did wrong? I know nothing in the article is misquoted, all links are legit. I am really not sure.
Could you please not delete the page, or at least let me know what is wrong. I am hoping this is not due to there being 2 pages active, one for William S Tribell and one for William S. Tribell. One one was created by me and someone else created a link to the now corrected version: William S. Tribell
Thank you in advance. Cilla

I believe I have the right to get my work back, if not put up on the Wikipedia website publicly. I believe that this, although in my mind, did not have partial views towards an organization, can be changed to seem less partial, and can be edited as such. However, this can only be done if I can receive the text of the Wikipedia page back. I thank you for your cooperation, and I hope to fix the problems you believe I have with my page. -Shyam.raghavan.1 (talk) 23:03, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
Done I have emailed you the article text. However, I have to completely concur with the deletion as this was plainly and clearly "adcopy" more suitable for a corporate website then a Wikipedia article. If you create another article and it looks anything like this then it will be deleted again.

Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles concerning companies. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning companies will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. Note that you claim the company is in "Portsmouth, United States of America" (what on earth does that mean?) yet tag the article as using U.K. English. You say they sell "solutions": that's marketing-speak for whatever it is they actually sell: unless they break encryptions or sell solutes dissolved in solvents, they are not selling "solutions"! The tone is promotional and gives not the vaguest hint that the company is actually notable in any way. --Orange Mike | Talk 14:37, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

- General answer - if it was deleted under WP:CSD#G11 that means the deleting administrator thought it too promotional for an encyclopedia article. Wikipedia is not for advertising or promotion of any kind, and is very resistant to attempts to use it like that. Also, it is not a business listing directory, and does not expect to have articles about every company that exists, only those that are notable enough to have been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources. See the WP:FAQ/Organizations and WP:Notability (organizations and companies for more information.
- I cannot tell you what was in the deleted page, unless you can tell us the exact title of the article. We have never had an article Integrated Display Technology or Integrated display technology or IDT Integrated Display Technology or IDT integrated display technology or any other variation that I have tried.

- I've no objection to that, but is it the policy on resurrected pages (or just your wish that it be)? LadyofShalott 00:04, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- Actually, as the template throws up an error message if you try to put it on page created earlier than the blpprod process, I think you'd get that error if you put it on this article (or ones in similar situations). LadyofShalott 00:07, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
- There is no policy for this, only a compromise agreement not to use it on old articles. IAR says it is no longer an old article. You can ignore the template warning- it still works. Incubation is fine, but that is a bit of a black hole. The-Pope (talk) 00:56, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles concerning companies. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning companies will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. --Orange Mike | Talk 20:17, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
UK Alfa Romeo Owners Club
The article was one of many that fall into the category Automobile associations and none of the others have been flagged for deletion. The article had useful content and was as notable as other articles in the category. The club is well-known in the UK, as evidenced in part by its representation on the Internet. The article has good references (but as I recall, none inline. I'll fix that if it's recovered). -The Skywatcher and me (talk) 18:10, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user HighKing (talk), who proposed it, in case he wishes to consider nominating it at WP:Articles for deletion. The only references are the club's own website and what seems to be the website of another AR owners' club; what the article needs to establish notability is references showing significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources.

PS Nation
The page was marked for possible speedy deletion and it was deleted. The page was waiting for additional information to be provided to me by others to help justify its importance. PS Nation is one of the top PlayStation podcast downloaded on I-tunes as well as accessed by people all over the world. Besides just a podcast, PS Nation also comprises a web site with video game and other independent content, and a Facebook group page. While that may not sound like much it is evidence that there is more to it than just a podcast. Additionally they were one of the charter members of PlayStation Home's Community theater, and continue to have videos posted there. They are one of the larger independent podcasts, who as part of retroid's network managed to collect more money for extra life than other bigger media corporations such as IGN. I believe that they raised over $18,000 last year. Additionally as an independent podcast they have been invited to events such as E3, Starhawk announcement, and other major industry events. If there is any other thing that I can do or information I can provide that helps to prove the relevance and importance of PS Nation please let me know.

Ok how about these outside references? from Sony: http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/07/28/this-week-in-playstation-home-mag-personal-space-community-theater-update/, Linkedin: http://www.linkedin.com/company/ps-nation, Joystiq: http://www.joystiq.com/2008/06/20/ps-nation-podcast-066-metal-gear-molecule/, iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/au/podcast/playstation-nation-podcast/id251193106
- What about 'em? A blog: worthless; a LinkedIn listing: meaningless; a minor notice on a hobbyist blog; and an iTunes listing: worthless, since you can try to sell any kind of crap you want on iTunes: Steve Jobs don't care. --Orange Mike | Talk 18:37, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
First Mr Orandemike, I would like to thank you for your quick response. I know that it must be a thankless task moderating Wikipedia. I don't take this personally and I know that when somebody has to judge content it is very subjective in nature some times, so again thanks for your quick response. Now for the sources I had listed above. First the Sony blog is the way that Sony is communicating what is going to be on the Playstation Network, and what videos are going to be in Home. This isn't a random blog, but one run but a major company. I agree with you about Linkedin not being the greatest reference, but since it is used to network business people I feel that there is some more merit to it than what it was given. The minor notice on a Hobbyist blog is fine with the exception that that same minor hobbyist blog has a wikipedia page. To me it seems odd to discount something that is currently on wikipedia as a reason to discount this page. Since they are both media enterprises at what point does it become deciding which point of view you want to share instead of the idea of sharing all points of view? As for the iTunes reference, the show is a free download from there, not something that cost money. I also don't feel that even if money is involved that should matter where something is a candidate for Wikipedia. By the same logic that things should be discounted in value because you are trying to make money off of it and it may be crap, there should be no listings on Wikipedia for tabloids but this exists http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gossip_magazine. I think that the real issue here is that PS Nation is not a business but a media enterprise. And under that belief I am trying to prove its validity by mentioning major corporations that refer to it or other things that have Wikipedia pages. Again thanks for taking the time to review this Orangemike, and for your feedback. Also I do appreciate you doing this job, I for one wouldn't want to have to deal with people questioning me on my decisions like this. Have a good day.
Mock chop
This article was deleted because user Tikiwont does not think there is such a thing. Mock Chops do exist and are widely available in Scottish fish and chip shops.

- Although this is effectively a contested PROD, you might want to rethink your reasoning. Just because something exists (which I don't doubt) that does not make it notable, and WP:GNG was noted in the PROD.

Daniel Juster is both an important theologian and one of a handful of pioneering leaders within the modern Messianic Jewish Movement. As the first president of the Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations and author of several important books about Messianic Judaism, theology, and leadership development, it is beneficial to have a wiki article that documents his contributions and work.
