I'm not sure you saw the references included which would seems to fit exactly the definition of "notability" as per the guidelines.Crowdleaks were implicated in uncovering key aspects of the HBGary/Anonymous/Wikileaks/Bank of America/Chamber of Commerce scandal.Pretty much every news agency in the world has covered the story. The two references I used were the two I felt had the best analysis.Admittedly, the page was a little brief, I was hoping the page would receive more than just my interest and so would be more complete in time.— Precedingunsigned comment added byUrl w edit (talk •contribs)03:39, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Fair point. Both references conducted their own (more thorough) investigation into the points Crowdleaks raised. This is what informed my decision to include them. Rather than create an article from scratch, can you e-mail me the mark-up I used please. I'll flesh out the article in a sandbox and submit via the AfC as per your suggestion.Url w edit (talk) 11:59, 23 February 2011 (UTC)Email received!

I would please like access to a deleted article:Payoneer. I notice the entry has been deleted on numerous occasions for blatant advertising. The company has become more relevant and is linked to by other articles. I have a unbiased, well cited draft that I was hoping you could look at. I have at times served as the editor for Merchant Services: Guides and Directories at the DMOZ open directory project. So, not really a newbie. —Meshatz (talk)18:20, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
Could you send me over or republish the article. It was a work in progress that I was trying to prove notability and relevance by providing a number of links to. I'll keep reworking it and see if I can get it up to standard. Cheers.JLAnchor
Thanks, appreciate it.(JLAnchor (talk)20:59, 18 February 2011 (UTC))

Hello, I was wondering why this article has been deleted. There are artists that are ranked lower in artfacts.net, that had less international exhibitions and are less well-known.So I was wondering what the key factor is, to allow people putting up artist biographies? I am an art historian and curious, because I like to update some of the contemporary artist sections, where there is no info to be found yet.Thank you for getting back at this.Sincerely, Richard.— Precedingunsigned comment added byRichardDeiss (talk •contribs)
You are right, this is my account –Hasna Sharif, I didn't have a Wikipedia account before and now, that I am in the United Arab Emirates I wanted to post something about middle eastern artists as well – and be surprised – Hassan Sharif, was the first person I wanted to add, because he is really famous here in the Middle East and also had a lot of exhibitions in Europe ( also at the Biennial in venice). That is what inspired me to use this Alias.As for the Nic Hess article, I was very surprised to find it deleted because it just contained basic information and it is perfectly relevant information as well – which is proved by the link possibilities below:

But if this doesn't seem serious or honest enough to edit and contribute to wikipedia, I can't help it.Do you block people with a European IP Address also this quickly?Thank you for your quick reply and your detailed explanation of the matter. I do know how IP addresses from other parts of the world can make the seriosity appear little and I accept that. I do not have a VPN Tunnel here, so if my IP looks odd, then I just have to accept to post again, when I am back in Europe. Again thank you so much for the detailed information.

Dear RHaworth,
Thank you for the constructive feedback.This isthe link with the name mentioned in Wikipedia.
And then decide for yourself. When I first entered the Article it was deleted before I was able to link it to the pages..sryThanks so far, Richard— Precedingunsigned comment added byRichardDeiss (talk •contribs)13:44, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
--- ah okay I see,external links – sure. ok make sure it has them next time. You can also delete the hasna sharif account— Precedingunsigned comment added byRichardDeiss (talk •contribs)13:54, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for doing that. I am his great-grandson. Yes. I will work on figuring out how to upload the picture. I am running into all kinds of licensing issues, it seems. I didn't think it would be this difficult.TomWatsonB (talk)07:21, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
I created a page forQuido since it was in demand that a lot of people wanted to know about this new artist. It is my first time at this and so there is no doubt that I am a novice. What seems to be the problem? I got the information from sources the artist himself. So if any explanation could be given for its speedy deletion. I would just like to know what it takes then for an article or biography to be kept on Wikipedia? I even got newspaper writers to look through the io and they approved of its composure.
Apologies, so then?— Precedingunsigned comment added byQ da Hustle (talk •contribs)02:00, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
I notice that you deleted this, and yet it is still there. Can you explain? Did I screw up in some way?Wwwhatsup (talk)03:44, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi, I hope you don't mind but I've restoredBrittany Dawn Brannon as I was declining the speedy whilst you deleted it. I wouldn't have blinked at a BLPprod tag but A1 seemed odd to me – she does seem to have won that contest.ϢereSpielChequers10:01, 10 February 2011 (UTC)
I received my firstspeedy deletion nomination today (for an article onRed Light Management I'd started). I followed the instructions, justifying the page in terms of musicology & awaitedadministrator input (esp' in terms of targets & urgency). Instead, its been unceremoniously deleted, judgedUnambiguous advertising or promotion. Its very disheartening that hours of my work have been junked. However, the reason "unambiguous" stated is downright insulting, implies my case was obvious lies – Not so!
I've been been editing here for over six years (mostly corrections / updates / elaborations). It seems iconic that, a few days ago, I donated (to help ensure reliable edit-submission, i.e. saving me time) – then, a few edits later, hours on my time are trashed.I would like to learn from this experience & given the topic's worthy – How might I have approached the article's creation more acceptably? - IanDjScrawl (talk ·contribs) 21:16, 10 Feb 2011 (UTC)

I was in the middle of some expansion and citing when my edit screen told me it was deleted. I do not know why the fellow who contested the speedy did not atate a reason on its talk page, but I think I can use the one found news source,[1] and the several book sources to show notability.[2][3] Might you restore so I can continue work?Schmidt,MICHAEL Q.10:02, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

How do I trigger a review now that I've added notable content to the article? I notice you reflagged it despite the substantial new content added since the original flagging. Is the current content lacking in some way?Daniel Pritchett (talk)01:28, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Recently, you deletedTemplate:Noinclude underWP:G4. Although the criteria does apply in this case, the rationale given at the cited deletion discussion does not (see what links here). Therefore, I'd like to request undeletion. (Failing that, I intend to take it toWP:DRV). --NYKevin @903, i.e.20:40, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Yes I have. The rationale for deletion was that the template was old and unused (and "[did] not function correctly"). That is no longer the case; it is used inTemplate:Wormhole. I took that toWP:VPD and got areasonably positive response. I've reread G4 a little more closely, and it appears to explicitly exclude "pages to which the reason for the deletion no longer applies". Therefore the deletion was against policy. I really want to minimize drama, and I feel that asking you to undelete it will be less dramatic than DRV. But if you really won't undelete it, I suppose we'll be going to DRV... --NYKevin @710, i.e.16:01, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Would you mind going toWikipedia:Articles for deletion/Abbotts Mill, Delaware and commenting with your opinion on the deletion I proposed?

I was just curious as to why my articleModel Airplane Collectors was deleted.
Extended content |
|---|
This was my first attempt at creating an article and the article format was based off of other articles I had read. I was using a social network to show the modern-age twist on a very old human instinct. Humans have always formed groups, clicks, and found ways of belonging to or participating in groups of others with similar interests. Aviation has been around for just over one hundred years. From the very beginning there have been those interested in model airplanes. Then came the model or hobby magazines. Then came small local clubs followed by organized regional events. In the nineties blogs and forums became a popular way to communicate and network. Airline forums began popping up and people began posting about their hobby. Now, with the popularity of facebook and the social network it seems more and more specific interest groups are starting their own social networks. I feel that my article is covering a very current and popular movement that is no more or no less relevant then articles on social networks such as facebook. I already noticed some people adding to my article as well. Can you please explain to me how this was spam or irrelevant?????? I am afraid that after reading your members page that you seem to be very proud of the fact that you have so much power. The power to decide what is and what isn't relevant or worthy of Wikipedia... While my article may have fallen short in terms replacing the common layman's vocabulary with the very obvious thesaurus upgrade, I feel my article was ever bit the read your members page would appear to be although found in the non-fiction section of this virtual library. While you may choose do delete this post with a simple click of the mouse I have no doubt the other hand will be simultaneously patting yourself on the back. |

I've looked at a few, the only problem I can see is that the coords have been changed from degrees, minutes and seconds to decimal degrees, such as inthis edit to St Martin's Mill, Canterbury. The display of grid ref and coords in the infobox itself is good.Mjroots (talk)05:58, 18 February 2011 (UTC)

I see you deleted theFalling in Reverse page because it did not have any significance. I agree. However and article was made for the lead singer of that band who has no real importance or notability on his own to sustain his own article and constantly revert the edits but I am being attacked by a fan girl who not only gives unreliable sources but also stalked my youtube and facebook giving links out to my page telling people to bad mouth me. I really don't know what to do. I keep reverting her edits, but she keeps reverting mine. I am here to request you delete the pageRonald Joseph Radke. Or (perhaps more effective) lock it so she cannot continue to keep adding to an article which has no place being there. I have redirected the page toEscape the Fate cause that was the only significance the person had and it was only related to that particular group yet this girl doesn't seem to get it. The user isUser:Marissac95. Her account was made just to make that article. I would also like for her to be banned for harassment but I think that's a little to far so I can't blame you if you refuse to that. So that's my case. i would really appreciate your help :). -User:D33deed33guy—Precedingundated comment added18:16, 20 February 2011 (UTC).
I appreciate you locking the page. Thank you so much, however can you please set it as a redirect toEscape the Fate? as I said, there person alone is not worthy enough for his own articleUser:d33deed33guy—Precedingundated comment added19:08, 20 February 2011 (UTC).
I wonder why this page was deleted. Articles of similar saints (e.g. his guruSwami Samarth Maharaj) exists on Wiki.May I request you to reconsider and restore?Das krishnadas (talk)03:32, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
I do not know much about wiki editing but I would like to state that Krishna Saraswati was a great saint in tradition of Lord Dattatreya. 1.Shripad Shri Vallabha 2.Narasimha Saraswati 3.Swami Samarth followed by Krishna Saraswati. The 2 pictures added are scans of very old (taken before 1900) and copyright free. I had put 2 websites also as references and list of meditation centers. I plan to put life and work information in due course of time. I request you to restore the article. Thanks,Das krishnadas (talk)—Precedingundated comment added15:48, 21 February 2011 (UTC).
Thanks Roger. I will go through AFC. I am not much familiar with, so i will have to read carefully. Meanwhile may i request you to email me my article, so I can then use and develop it further?Das krishnadas (talk)—Precedingundated comment added01:15, 22 February 2011 (UTC).

This was my first attempt at contributing. I believe this article should remain. It is notable for two reasons.
1) it is the first rugby club in the history of the town and explains how it came into being
2 it details the positive social aspects of a developing community and the cycle through education into adulthood. The whole philosophy of western society.

1-I received an alert from Google talking that SpaceMETA is inside an wikipedia article here:Google Lunar X Prize
2-I went there and click on SpaceMETA , and it was a broken link.
3-So, I decided to contribute and writing something about SpaceMETA
I saw you have deleted theTeam SpaceMETA page.I would like to ask you to undelete this article based on this premisses above.Otherway I really cant understand why we are in one article in a link format and we cannot fill the page created by wikipedia automatically.Thanks Guy,— Precedingunsigned comment added bySergio123cabral (talk •contribs)15:50, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
I disagree with you. We are talking about innovation , so how innovation can have a lot of reference before ? Don't make sense your position. I insist to you undelete the post. Please Remember: Wikipedia was the first to talk about SpaceMETA, AND, your system created automatically the linkTeam SpaceMETA. I will not stay here trying to convoke you about it. You just need to be reasonable and remember: Innovations don't have any previous reference. If you cannot support it , I think that you are transforming wikipedia in the oldBarsa Encyclopedia. One more time , kindly undelete our post. About a better English , unfortunately we live global times, and language and way of expression is always changing, so I will accept you nice advisor but I will not change my way of write.— Precedingunsigned comment added bySergio123cabral (talk •contribs)02:39, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Hey Roger. One of the classes working with the Wikipedia Ambassador Program, Jonathan Obar'sMedia and Telecommunication Policy, is working in small groups and would like us to assign a mentor to each group (rather than having students request the mentors they'd like, as other classes are doing).
I invite you to sign on as the mentor for one or more groups, especially if any of the topics catch your interest. To sign up, go to the course page and add yourself as "Mentor: you" in the section for that group. They students and/or professor or campus ambassadors should be cleaning things up soon to list all the usernames for each group and add a few more groups. Once you know who the students are in the group, you can leave them each a quick introduction to let them know you'll be mentoring their group.

You will not find much about him on net because he’s a true saint and keep a distance from media or any kind of promotion. I, and several others, strongly believe that he’s a person of significance.

Dear sir, you just deleted my article on the Institute ofBrilliant failures. You mention that this is promotion. However, the Institute is fully ooen source and non-profit. I created the article because many people want to know more about it and we have been interviewed recently by a couple of news media, like BBC World Radio. This gave me the idea to put it on the Wikipedia in the hooe that many people will enjoy and learn from it. I regret that you have interpreted it as a 'selling attempt' which it is not. I am professor in open innovation and particularly interested in crowd sourcing, so I am a bjt disappointed about this first experience as an editor with Wikipedia.
