Hi Roger. I reported several other socks to DoRD if you feel like blocking them.User_talk:DoRD#Sock_accounts.INeverCry22:09, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
I would like to know why you delete my article. I understand that the first time my article got deleted was because I did not cite a reliable source. But this time I am citing from a reliable source, United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Also this article is about an invention which technical aspects are being explained here. And can not be changed in second article. But I did amend by using this reliable source. Please explain why you delete thisautomatic pitch turbine.

Hello Roger (RHaworth),You deleted my submission forIsaac Fadoyebo because it didn't meet the significance test however I feel your deletion is not merited. Please restore the page.
Extended content |
|---|
for the following reasons: 1. Mr. Fadoyebo's death was covered by multiple news sources, see the following links:http://www.theguardian.com/theguardian/2012/nov/21/isaac-fadoyebo-obituary,http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/obituaries/9709639/Isaac-Fadoyebo.html. When he was alive an Al Jazeera documentary was produced about his World War 2 actions in Burma, see:http://www.aljazeera.com/programmes/aljazeeracorrespondent/2011/08/20118101111351997.html 2. There are now 2 books that cover Fadoyebo's perspective as an African fighting for Great Britain in World War 2, see the following;http://books.google.com/books/about/A_stroke_of_unbelievable_luck.html?id=9ByFAAAAIAAJ, and a new book by Barnaby Phillips of Al Jazeera and formerly the BBC:http://www.amazon.com/Another-Mans-War-Britains-Forgotten/dp/1780745222 |
4. TheBarnaby Phillips article references Isaac Fadoyebo. Furthermore, Barnaby Phillip's documentary about Fadoyebo can also be viewedhere.
5. The most important reason why Fadoyebo's submission in Wikipedia is important is that his personal account of the war is now stored at the Imperial War Museum .

Hello RHaworth. Recently this articleJohn J. "Bald Jack" Ryan was created by what looks to be a SPA editor. A discussion on the talk page wound up showing that there are some references out there that could be used but at the moment it is an unsourced mess that (IMO) is a long way away from being a Wikipedia article. The question I have is there a place to go other than AFD to recommend that it be moved to a user sandbox or draft space as you did with the article mentioned in the above thread? If not are there any other alternatives? Thanks for your time.MarnetteD|Talk16:07, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for the responses. I have not dealt with this before so I appreciate the input. RH, I haven't userfied anything before and I am leery of creating redirects. I am as likely to mess it up as not. D, I am not interested in the subject at all and I don't have the time or desire to work on the article. When I posted my question there were no sources in the article. I notice that there are some now. It is still a long way from encyclopedic and reads like a college thesis paper. But that is just me. Others who are interested in the subject will come along and improve it in time. Thanks again to you both for sharing your thoughts. Cheers.MarnetteD|Talk20:32, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello, I want to publish an article about a company I work forXeltek and I saw a previous article that was deleted in 2012because: A7: Article about a company, corporation, organization, or group, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject. This is a Global leader company in its industry that has more than 20 years of history so I would like to know how did we fail to indicate the significance of the subject, other companies of the sector such asElnec have an article in Wikipedia. In their page they mention Xeltek as big competitor.We can provide strong secondary sources and information about the company. This is a technology company that manufacturers programmers and works on developing technology,it also publishes valuable information on electrical engineering and programming. I would like to write an informational article about the company, its history and its trademark registered line product.Please let me know how to proceed.Thank you,Pilarxeltek (talk ·contribs)

You recently deleted a wikipedia page onQ&Aid Research Institute on 18 August 2014, 09:23 because of (A7: Article about a company, corporation or organization, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject). I believe that this is not true. The wikipedia page I posted about this company had no bias or promotional material. Everything was properly cited and nothing on that page was false. While this company is new and does not have much attention, it does provide an important community service by providing free information on cancer prevention methods and health management techniques. The company currently has a database for traditional herbal medicine with modern scientific backing and research. this should fall under and "educational institute" and it does have importance and significance.— Precedingunsigned comment added by97.78.44.42 (talk)18:35, 18 August 2014 (UTC)

You seem to have deletedan afc for world champion in two sports, which had extensive acceptable documentation (which I verified). Fortunately, I check the deletion log from time to time, even though it is much harder to check on the contents after an article has been deleted. Relying on a no longer present editor to ask for restoration is not often effective. I apologized to the after I undeleted and accepted the article as it stood, though I subsequently made a few formatting changes. (to be sure, the editor made the error of not formally re-submitting it after he changed the unacceptable references to acceptable ones, but we can hardly expect newcomers to get our procedures right all the time.) — DGG ( talk)16:03, 19 August 2014 (UTC)

Hello RHaworth,Sorry for coming back to this topic a bit later than helpful, but we have a time difference here so I just noticed that the articleCyberGhost VPN has been deleted faster than the speed of light ... ;-)I didn't intend to provoke such a harsh reaction. Otherwise I would have sandboxed the article and discussed it from there. In fact, I had been pretty sure I have avoided as much pitfuls as possible to leave room enough for discussions with other Wikipedians to create an article which serves public interests - that's why I did tag the article with the neutrality flag myself. I obviously failed. But I am also very astonished to be kicked out from Wikipedia, even though I offered all possible forms of discussing the topic (imo).So, how can we open a frutile discussion? I'd be eager to learn, why you decided the way you did, what you think, I/we can do better, what passages need to be re-written and what other changes need to be done. After all, CyberGhost VPN is a software product like many others and does serve a public interest by providing a powerful free anonymization service for everybody. - Ulrich (which is my real name)W1k1p1CG (talk)10:36, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
Well, ever thought about why I never made any attempt to hide my intentions? I actually thought, we are all grown ups and would be able to start a discussion without offending people. To make this one clear: I am not a marketing specialists nor do I want to be confused as one nor am I experienced with Wikipedia. I am just an ordinary german content provider who tried to start an article in a foreign language and actually also asked for help. So did anybody actually read what I wrote or was it just a reflex? However, I carefully read aboutCOI and do understand your point of view - even though I felt misunderstood and offended by the words you used and the harsh reactions. I believe as much as you in what Wikipedia should provide (an objective encyclopedia of everything) - but we might just have different opinions on how to reach that goal ... - Ulrich91.11.66.13 (talk)09:39, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
You assumed wrongly, sorry. It was simply a mistake, based on the German word 'fruchtbar'. I just confused it with the English word 'frutile' because of its somehow similar spelling for me as a German. However, that's nothing I expect you should have known, of course, but, since these are my last words here about this topic (the article on Wikipedia had been given up) allow me to correct this to fruitile as a neologism to fruitful and fertile. Have a nice life. - Ulrich91.11.66.13 (talk)09:39, 22 August 2014 (UTC)

It seems as if every darn character in every darn video game is thought worthy of inclusion, yet a significant music ensemble (which pulls up over 500 hits on Ixquickwhen put in quotes and another 300+ under its alternate name without "Armenian" in it, and 170 for Youtube hits alone) is removed. It is good that there are options to retrieve some articles, or to protest a removal, but that isa lot of extra work for the user!
