There is a discussion here that could benefit from your wisdom, as you have previously made an edit to the article. Hope you can help!! Pedro |  Chat  13:23, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for you input. This article's creator was rather aggressive (to say the least!) so it's nice to have another editor in support. Pedro |  Chat  20:17, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i looked into the entry (Burauen, Leyte) again today and the part that im referring to has already been deleted. i guess by the writer. Thanks for the concern anyway. :) Ciao! Ging2 14:30, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

Hi, recently the page I created (The End Of The World (Animation))was deleted (I got a notice about speedy deletion on the grounds that the article had already been deleted once, but I thought I covered my bases by putting the 'intents to resist deletion' notice under the deletion notice).

So I'm wondering what I need to do to ensure that it's notable enough. I know it is notable because people on irc, chatrooms, and social bookmarking sites make reference to it occasionally, it being a popular flash video with about the same popularity as schfifty five.

What sources to people usually cite for internet notability?

And finally, I'm kind of new to wikipedia - I saw a red link to this page, so I created an account to create the page, and now it is deleted already. : ( Isn't there some leeway given to people who are just starting out? Thanks--Phixxor 05:51, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Steenbok image

Dear Jim, Sorry...but your image of a male Steenbok is not. It clearly shows white hairs interspersed within the coat, and is therefore a Grysbok. I've never seen either Sharpe's Grysbok or Cape Grysbok, but if you tell me where exactly it was photographed, I'll tell you which it is. I am somewhat envious—I've seen Steenbok and would love to see the two grysboks!—GRM 16:10, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Jim, thanks for that and for moving the image. What I forgot to say earlier was: what was a mediocre-to-good image of a Steenbok, is one cracker of a photo of a Cape Grysbok (try Googling for images of grysbok!)—thanks again. GRM 19:47, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is a result of discussion at Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2007 May 17#Category:Mid winter flowers. It was closed as "listify". Conscious 07:25, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In fact, it seems to be SEWilco's work. Conscious 07:27, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
No, this article is subject to the same standards as any other. In fact, I don't really care whether it's deleted or not ;) Conscious 04:07, 27 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Deleted Post

Jim someone wrote a post about my website Mymarketer.net. I don't have a problem that it was deleted but I am curious what it said and who wrote it. Could you tell me how I can find these things out. Thanks. ~Paul W.

I noticed you speedy deleted the article Just Flight. I found it by pure chance a while ago when I was just doing some searching. I tagged it with the hope that someone might try and expand/fix it - though that clearly did not happen according to the logs. Anyway, thank you for dealing with it.

1. I need an urgent response.....I have been working on this project for a while now, and I should be able to continue to work on this project, right now if I so desire. No one has the right to tell me if I can work on this project. In addition, I am not willing to wait for a long while for your repsonse, until I can work on my own project. 2. Saying that the page is "inappropriate external links" or "spam" is not adequate. You have to tell me why this is so. If you paid any attention at all this issue is addressed on the rapidweaver talk page. 3. You have no right to edit content on my own page. I understand if you don't want it on the rapidweaver page, but I don't see how it harms anyone on my own wikipedia page. 4. You have an obligation to provide the stuff that you deleted. I worked over 10 hours on this project and now I can't find the the work that I have done. You can't just steal all of this code. 5. How dare you delete the page while I was working on. Especially without providing adequate documentation. At least give me a warning. At least let me finish the article. What gives you the right to go on my own page, while I am working, and delete the page? How would you like if I deleted your page within seconds? 6. Please address the following responses on my part:

The links are not a directory but like the old page are intended to be a comprehensive, thourough listing of external links and information on themes and plugins. It is not in anyway used for advertising or promotion. Either way I was going to compile the list, but I figured it would be something that nearly everyone would want access to, and so I decided to share the work that I was planning on doing.

DIRECTORY 1. I am not using Wikipeida to list loosely associated topics 2. I am not lising genealogical entries or phonebook entries 3. I am listing directory entries, TV/Radio guides, or resources for conducting business.

LISTING 1. The sites are not personal web sites or blogs (Even if a few are personal websites the same links existed on the old rapidweaver page). 2. I am not affliated with any of these links. 3. The intention is NOT, nor does that page exist to attract visitors to a website or to promote a site. Ultimately, it is a reference to serve RapidWeaver users not the 3rd party developers or any other interest.

I don't feel that any of the external links are inappropriate. I am simply expanding on the external links (of 3rd party themes and plugins) that were on the old page. Previously, there was a list of exernal links to these developers. I am simply expanding on that by providing hopefully an end-all be-all type reference page detailing all the plugins and themes availabe, by who, for how much and how to access the pages. In addition, I haven't composed the article in a biased way. I think the page will be a valubale resource for any RapidWeaver user and will be a enhancing tool. The price is done is a non-biased way and is not intended to promote any particular company/service, beside RapidWeaver.

After I complete the page, I will be more than happy to move the added info to my personal page if you still desire.

I hope this works.

RapidWeaver2

This is about, that fact that all of my work was deleted from the RapidWeaver page. I moved all my work to me personal page and made additional changes. Then you deleted without warning, all the work that I had done on my user page. Since there is no history page for your user page I can't access the latest version of my work. I can assure you that if you look at the history, my RapidWeaver work was deleted from my user page and the official RapidWeaver page. The title of my post on this page was RapidWeaver, this I think is what you are referring to. I don't know what a "speedy request" is. You deleted my entire user page that did ahve additional work (from the last offical RapidWeaver changes) that I made. I don't know where the "sandbox" is.

The work I did was not spammy. How was it spam? I was acting in a unbiased way with n interest in mine. It wasn't a price list. It was a list of all plugins and themes, with the prices as a reference to users, so they could easily see the prices. Basically, my list was an impartial tool for users. Regardless, I would ALL the code that you deleted. I know I don't own the material, but I would appreciate a headsup: 1. When I am working on the material 2. When it is my personal page 3. When I lose all the work I did 4. When you do it so fast without notice 5. When you don't provide adequate reasoning. IT WAS NOT ADVERTISING. I don't understand how it fails to meet the "notability criteria." It is your obligation to explain this. THERE WAS NOT ADVERTISING ON ANY PAGE. Advertising implies that I am trying to sell a product, which I am not. According to your reasoning, my work should be reinstated, omitting the prices, which I would be more than happy to do. IF YOU LOOK AT THE ORGINAL WORK, WHICH YOU HAVE AN OBLIGATION TO DO, BEFORE MAKING ANY CHANGES, I WAS SIMPLY EXPANDING ON THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE BY ADDING THE SPEFIC THEMES/PLUGINS TO THE PREXISTING THIRD PARTY LINKS.

RapidWeaver3

As I referenced earlier this is not the latest version. After I moved the material from the RapidWeaver page to my personal user page I had made significant changes. Under the themes list, I had added information on 30 more themes and had the details down to WaterMedia. Where is this version? THAT IS NOT THE PAGE OR VERSION YOU DELETED.

It is not highly promotional nor is it intended to be my any means. Are you a RapidWeaver user? Doesn't sound like it. If you are not, you should not be editing the RapidWeaver page or RapidWeaver content on my page. How did you even find my user page?

Any RapidWeaver user understands how integral themes and plugins are to the use of the program. This is what RapidWeaver is all about. This list and my work came out of the need to have a comprehensive encyclopedic resouce telling users where to find these things. Indeed many of these plugins and themes are free. ONCE AGAIN, AS I STATED EARLIER, THE CURRENT RAPIDWEAVER PAGE, LISTS ALL THE THINGS I LISTED (THEME AND PLUGIN 3RD PARTY DEVELOPERS), WITHOUT THE THROUGHNESS THAT I OFFERED. My list expands upon this and provides an all inclusive list that is even more encyclopedic. I am describing the product, just like the current page is. I am descibing what is available and is INTENDED to enhance the functionality of the program. The material added is not intended to promote it, but explain to RapidWeaver users what can be used to enhance the program. This is my no menas a marketing effort. Non-RapidWeaver users would not even understand those links (thus, the people I would try to be "selling" RapidWeaver to.) Nor, do I have any intention of promoting the add-ons (I have no affliation with any of the add-ons). Notice that this is an effort to list all available themes and plugins and provide the information that RapidWeaver users want. BOTTOM LINE- RAPIDWEAVER USERS WILL FIND THIS INFORMATION EXTEREMELY BENEFICIAL AND ENCYCLOPEDIC, SERVING AS A RESOURCE TO EXPLAIN THE USE AND ENHANCE THE USAGE OF RAPIDWEAVER. I like the sortable table to, and that is why I believe I should be able to AT LEAST display it on my user page.

Non-free use disputed for Image:Rspb.jpg

I added the Kolea information to Pacific Golden Plover because I had been working on Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/Hot/K, which included Kolea. When I did a Google search, the top response was the Pacific Golden Plover, referred to as "Kolea". The top response from other online encyclopedias was a town in Algeria. I created a dab page at Kolea, a new page at Kolea, Algeria, and added the Kolea information to the plover page. I think the one-line mention of the Hawaiian name in the plover article is useful because of the link from the dab page, and because of the apparently well-known use of "kolea" as another name for this bird. Let me know what you think -- thanks, NawlinWiki 14:20, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Your point makes sense. I added a reference to the Hawaiian name on the Kolea dab page. NawlinWiki 15:44, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

An editor has asked for a deletion review of vault (company). Since you closed the deletion discussion for this article or speedy-deleted it, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Cheapestcostavoider 02:33, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I spotted you'd deleted a couple of pages I'd done on british designers. They were work in progress as I'm a bit slow as I'm new to this. I'd appreciate advise as they disappeared only an hour or so after I'd created them. I'm adding info now, please be patient.Kodystanton 15:14, 7 June 2007 (UTC) Much appreciated advice, I'll prep more before uploading from now on, thanks. I've previously added public domain notability/refs with links to the British film designers guild, I'll now get to work adding notability to British film designers/production designers. Thanks for being patient.[reply]

Charlotte Wyatt

Hey. Can you explain your deletion and protection of Charlotte Wyatt? The article did not meet A3, as the user who tagged it first blanked the redirect. There was a redirect/keep edit war earlier, but the redirect was by no means "the right version" (that should be settled at AFD or at the article talk page). The page also did not meet any other speedy criterion and was extensively sourced (13 citations) according to Special:Undelete/Charlotte Wyatt. Also see Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Badlydrawnjeff/Evidence#Charlotte Wyatt. Thanks, Prolog 15:33, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

(copied from user talk:prolog): Hi, I just saw the db-empty tag, noted 112 edits and four previous deletions, so it looked like time to call a halt. However, I didn't work through the history, so my bad call, sorry. I've deleted the page now so it can start from scratch. Jimfbleak 19:51, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Alright, but why wait someone create an unreferenced stub with possible BLP problems instead of restoring the revisions from June 2-4 (redirect + proper article by Serpent's Choice)? Note that this new article had not been deleted before, and even of those four log actions for the old article one was actually a restore. I'm not gonna undelete those good revisions myself now, though. Prolog 21:35, 7 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Actually the page was just a redirect to "Right to life", where the details are recorded under "Test cases". Charlotte was a minor (born three-months premature in October, 2003) and the case is only of encyclopedic interest because of the ethical implications. [1] It therefore appears without her name. The link could be restored as a redirect, but I don't see what use it would be except as a search term on her name. The encyclopedic content is somewhat less than one would get from a newspaper search on the name. --Tony Sidaway 03:05, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why was this article speedy deleted? While it was not written very well, it did not meet the critera for Speedy Deletion. Was it too much Informaion? Or was the (rapper) part too much? Just Trying to get it right.. natalac 06:33, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alternative forum for non-english word

Hi there, my apologies for creating an article that didn't fit a guideline. Total novice here, so thanks for setting my ukay-ukay article straight (and deleting it). Is there an alternative way to add an article on this topic? It seems significant enough to warrant a presence in the English Wikipedia but perhaps I need more information on what constitutes significant. Thanks for your time, Jeff Werner. Update: I just realized that the article was tagged non-notable. Is there a system in place or recourse I can take to present evidence to the contrary?

Quick work on getting rid of that. I've been following this new user and cleaning up. See this diff [2]. She/he was obviously planning an attack page and I'd just found my db-attack template when you nuked the page - damn fine work. While you're in the mood to nuke, care to take care of the image she/he uploaded to illustrate the article too? [3] And perhaps you could pop something stronger than the vandal 1 warning I already placed on the talk page? Cheers, Paxse 15:11, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why have you deleted the page for a band I am managing? That took me ages to do, and how does it not comply with the speedy deletion criteria? Beefkidney 15:54, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply. I understand what is wrong now. The band has only been talked about in a local news article and a school newsletter, and they have a website, its just in the process of being finished off. Also, thank you for placing it in my sandbox! Beefkidney 15:54, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The above article was created and I was initially thinking this could be reasoned with the author, but now I see that the author User:Nikro is a juvenile and surely cannot understand the issues involved. The article merely recreates content and uses improper titling. Wonder if you could treat the article as a speedy. thanks. Shyamal 04:32, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The move from Anomalepidae also needs to be undone. I may have messed this up a bit since I did not realize that all this was done starting with a move from this article. I am unable to undo the move. Shyamal 05:25, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The entry Blind snake was a disambiguation to three families of snakes. User:Nikro moved family Anomalepidae to Blind Snakes (note spelling) and edited it to mix up content from the three families and was asking for deletion of the other entries. I think the move needs to be undone and that should be enough. Shyamal 08:41, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Should not be deleted

Hey, my site is way better than others to be speedy deleted. Whats the point of deleting pages anyway? It doesnt help wikipedia at all, gives them a bad name, and also the people are mad INCLUDING ME. YOU GAVE ME ONE DAY TO WRITE ONE ARTICLE, AND YOU DELETE IT! GIVE THESE PEOPLE A WEEK OR TWO AT LEAST. I STARTED A SITE AT 11 AT NIGHT SO I DONT HAVE MUCH TIME AND I WAKE UP TO WRITE MORE BUT I CANT. NOW THIS IS TO ALL THE OTHERS WITH DELETED SITES: NOW BACK TO JIMFBLEAK, JUST BECAUSE MY REAL SITE IS BEING ADVERTISED GIVES YOU NO RIGHT DELETE MY CHANCE OF HAVING A REAL SITE. DELETE MY PAGE, GO AHEAD. BUT THE PEOPLE WHO WANT A WEBSITE WILL READ THIS AND BREAK AWAY FROM YOUR TIGHT LIMITS TO WEB PAGES. LET PEOPLE HAVE FUN. I was just much much happier there. GET A LIFE JIMMY!


Here, Here

Dont talk to me about manners. I find it expectionally rude that my article was deleted for no reason. I find it further more rude that I wasnt given a reason for this. I was only trying to help people. If that has offended you well then im sorry, but i think the world should try and help each other not just go behind peoples backs and delete things just because they dont like it. I have tried to be civil about this but this has got me nowhere.

Oh and leave my school out of this okay the whole world cannot be perfect and im on holiday, so im not fussed about my spelling right now so be it.

PROVOKED!!!!! I HAVENT PROVOKED YOU AT ALL, IM JUST TRYING TO ADD MORE INFORMATION TO AN EXISTING ARTICLE. I AM THE ONE BEING GANGED UP ON HERE, THE AVERAGE AGE FOR YOU LOT IS ABOUT 30 IM ONLY 14 FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!!!!!! THIS ISNT FAIR AT ALL Whoisthis2007

Civility

I noticed you responded to the comments by Whoisthis2007. Seems as though you arent helping the situation by insulting the contrib's school. Not yelling just pointing out that you were just fueling the fire. Please try to be more civil when warning to be civil. Kind of an oxymoron there. Just a friendly reminder that I'm sure you don't really need but just wanted to point it out. Cheers and Happy Editing! Plm209(talk to me contribs) 13:53, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is my understanding that a wiki was started for the band ILAD. This wiki was quickly deleted by you. Just curious, as I'm new to wiki, who decides what stays and what goes? Why was this entry deleted?
