Aspersions and good faith[edit]

The summary in this edit is in my view not appropriate. It is an example of casting aspersions, making negative assumption without citing evidence about the motives of an editor. It is also a failure to assume good faith. HelpUsStopSpam has edited on a variety of topics over more than 2 years, far from all of them related to open source software.

Sign your comments[edit]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you.

Please avoid editing all the time both logged in and logged out, to make it easier to follow. Sign comments: Help:Talk pages#Identifying_yourself. Please learn to use basic Wikipedia formatting, such as using : appropriately for threaded discussions on talk pages. It is impolite if you ignore basic Wikipedia best practices like this.

Don't shoot the messenger![edit]

I know that you blame me for the article being deleted.

But while I had added the initial "COI" warning, you may want to notice that I neither nominated it for deletion, nor do I have the capacity to actually delete articles - only administrators can delete articles, and it followed the established Wikipedia procedures, that just had not yet been applied to the article before. I repeatedly tried to help you understand which kind of sources are going to be accepted as supporting notability (that German article seemed good), and which sources are considered to be not independent and low quality (copy and paste from your homepage). But rather than following the well meant advice to focus on quality references, you were very aggressive, and that may have backfired to some extend (although the deletion was because of WP:GNG and lack of reliable sources, not because of aggressive behavior).

As for why your article was nominated for deletion, see this archived discussion: Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions/Archive_766#DataMelt (no involvement from my side either, but supporting my point of view: "like an advertisement for a new product", "suggestive of a COI violation"). HelpUsStopSpam (talk) 11:50, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on DataMelt (software), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, such as at Articles for deletion. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Stop your stupid games. The article was deleted after a community discussion. Recreating with yet another name is childish.

You are not the first to try to circumvent the deletion policy by renaming. We even have templates for handling this: Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion#G4. Instead, resolve the issue why the article was deleted. The, play by the rules, rather than recreating the article with three different article names, and two different users.
