InformNapalm

The page was arbitrarily deleted by User:RGloucester. On his page he identified himself as a Marxist, his political views might be involved in his decision. If you look at his edit history you’ll find out he routinely removes politics-related articles he doesn’t like, and threatens another Wikipedia users. ) -Const.me (talk) 15:43, 31 January 2016 (UTC)

Const.me, RGloucester did not delete the article, he merely tagged it for deletion. And his personal political views are not relevant to arguing for the restoration of this article. Attacking another editor is not a shrewd strategy for arguing why this article needs to be undeleted which should focus on the merits of the article itself. Liz Read! Talk! 16:59, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
Liz About who deleted — do I have a way of knowing that? I am not a moderator, can’t see history of deleted pages. The only e-mail I have about that says “RGloucester left a message on your talk page in "Speedy deletion nomination...”, it was 4 days ago. Speedy indeed.
About RGloucester’s political views not being relevant, please take a look at his edit history. I am not an expect Wikipedia editor, but to me it looks like he took his side and now abusing his administration powers.
About deletion — so, will someone please undelete the page? The subject is perfectly notable, I even put links to sources like BBC, The Guardian, and Die Welt writing about InformNapalm.
Both RGloucester and someone else who as you say deleted the article ignored that. They also ignored my comment on “Dispute deletion” page I left after getting that e-mail 4 days ago. And the fact the article exist on German Wikipedia, and in dozen of local versions.
Const.me (talk) 18:03, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
If you had read the reply to your question at WP:ANI#RGloucester - Vandalism you would have seen a link to the article's deletion log so that you can see who deleted it. You would also have seen a link to RGloucester's rights log where you can see that he could not be "abusing his administration powers", as he does not have such powers. --David Biddulph (talk) 19:16, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
First, Const.me, if you go to InformNapalm there is a notation saying that RHaworth was the admin who deleted the page. Secondly, Wikipedia doesn't have "moderators" which is usually a role on message boards. Third, RGloucester is not an administrator, he is an editor, like you only with a lot more experience. Finally, the administrator who evaluates a tagged article looks over the talk page but can still delete the article if the comments posted there are unconvincing. Again, this page is for arguing for why your article is important and should not have been deleted and your criticism of another editor who merely tagged your article is a distraction from your goal which is convincing an admin that your article is worth restoring. Liz Read! Talk! 21:14, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
  • Const.me is apparently new here and unfamiliar with WP deletion processes: you can see the deletion log of the page here. After a quick web search and looking at a cached copy of the page, I can't predict whether it would have survived AfD, but I don't think it should have been speedied or tagged for speedy. Support undelete, can be taken to AfD if necessary. Blurb at top of this page says this type of undeletion request (because of the A7 speedy) should be done at DRV but that seems overly bureaucratic to me. This article was obviously not a speedy candidate. 173.228.123.101 (talk) 19:04, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
There were no indications of significance, no sources that indicated the notability of the website. RGloucester 19:25, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
The proper way to ask for this is to ask User:RHaworth nicely to reconsider their delete and to restore it for you. If you attempt to recreate the page, you can see a text in a pink box that tells you who deleted it, and the reason: "A7: Article about a website, blog, web forum, webcomic, podcast, browser game, or similar web content, which does not credibly indicate the importance or significance of the subject". Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:14, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
There were indications of significance. There were links to major media writing about the InformNapalm portal. I wrote some links on the dispute deletion page.
OK, you haven't deleted that, sorry for accusation. However, you did arbitrarily labelled that as “insignificant”, which is IMO pretty close. Here’s larger copy-paste for you: Wikipedia bases its decision about whether web content is notable enough to justify a separate article on the verifiable evidence that the web content has attracted the notice of reliable sources unrelated to the web content, its authors, or its owners.
And here’s from another WP manual: “before proposing or nominating an article or deletion, or offering an opinion based on notability in a deletion discussion, editors are strongly encouraged to attempt to find sources for the subject in question and consider the possibility of existent sources” Have you done that, User:RGloucester? I think no, because if you did, you’d find even more reliable sources writing about InformNapalm, e.g.: http://news.nationalpost.com/news/canada/russia-makes-complaint-to-canada-after-site-hosted-in-quebec-reportedly-posts-details-of-soldiers-fighting-isil
Const.me (talk) 00:09, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
The linked article does not even mention "InformNapalm". The only mention of it is in the comment section below, and user comments are not a reliable source. Why exactly are you pushing what is clearly a non-notable advocacy blog? RGloucester 00:14, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
Re Const.me's claim about "links to sources like BBC, The Guardian": the Guardian source has only one sentence mentioning this blog. The BBC source doesn't mention it at all. If you want to see the article survive the inevitable AfD after it is undeleted, you are going to need significantly more in-depth coverage than that. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:08, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
I would have deleted for A7 too; anyway, if this is so contentious, it should go to deletion review Lectonar (talk) 09:55, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
David Eppstein, I believe you're wrong about that.
BBC source #1: Volunteer activist group Inform Napalm sifted through more than 35 gigabytes of the data and found what looked like official reports confirming that Russian military servicemen were among the hundreds of people evacuated to Russia after being wounded in Ukraine.
BBC source #2: After studying images posted on social media, analysts from Ukrainian military research group Inform Napalm claimed they were members of the 5th Tank Brigade in Buryatia.
Const.me (talk) 20:25, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
So, is that notable enough? How many "blogs" out there receive regular BBC coverage?

Please edit the page to address the issues raised when it was declined, and re-submit it; "Articles for creation" is not for the indefinite hosting of material found to be unsuitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia.

  • I restored this over 6 months ago for you, and nothing at all happened to improve the page. What do you plan to do? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:59, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

We would like to edit the page and add relevant info re:notability to submit it again -HarrisEvan (talk) 11:33, 1 February 2016 (UTC)

Who do you mean by "we"? You've been trying to get this on Wikipedia for a couple of years, you have zero other edits. This looks fishy to me. Guy (Help!) 12:05, 1 February 2016 (UTC)
Yes, @HarrisEvan:, if your account is shared, you need to disclose that. If you are editing in behalf of another entity, you need to disclose that too. We gave you 6 months to improve that article and you did nothing. Wikipedia is not here to host unsuitable material indefinitely. Please convince us why this should be restored, when we have already done so in the past with no followup from you. ~Amatulić (talk) 00:21, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi @Graeme Bartlett:, @JzG: and @Amatulic:. My apologies for any confusion. I assure you there's nothing fishy going on. I plan to add information (with supporting independent links) that I believe will attest to the notability of 90min. This includes additional information from sources like TechCrunch, ComScore, Adweek, ProSiebenSat.1 and other notable publications/media companies.

List of 3D locations in Google Earth

Requesting to restore the page to user space so that the article can be improved upon. -ESRoads (talk) 03:42, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

Not done - this Requests for Undeletion process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially, and does not apply to articles deleted after a deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of 3D locations in Google Earth, it cannot be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Coffee (talk · contribs). After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. ~Amatulić (talk) 11:28, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
I don't have any of those concerns, I only want to move the article back to my user space so I can address the issues that led to the deletion. Is this not the correct process for userfying deleted pages? ESRoads (talk) 23:44, 31 January 2016 (UTC)
@ESRoads: Yes, this is the correct process, but as an administrator I am reluctant to override the deleting administrator in this case, because I am unconvinced that an article like this would survive an AFD. That's why my reply above suggested you contact Coffee instead. ~Amatulić (talk) 00:40, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
Thanks, I've got it back now. I have to admit, it would be hard for me to make this into an article that would survive, if it remained deleted and I couldn't modify it! ESRoads (talk) 05:20, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

The Pilgreens

The stated article was deleted due to a lack of importance for public. I think this is definitely not the case, as already stated in the discussion for deletion. I do agree that the article needs to be improved with more sources but to do this we actually need to see and then revise and improve the deleted article. The article is about a group of students that have undone the first tour around the world in an electric Tuk Tuk. Obviously this was much smaller than Solar Impulse but for example they also got an article so I do not understand the reason for deletion. I admit the article was not finished yet and should be improved. Undulation would help us to do so. Maybe a restore as draft is possible. Thank you! -Ludwigmerz (talk) 13:41, 5 February 2016 (UTC)

The reason stated was "He has not played in a fully pro league or received significant coverage". It is disappointing to have an article you wrote deleted. You can read WP:Your first article, but I am sure that will not cheer you up. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 05:05, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

you say that this got deleted because he has never played in a pro league but he has just signed for birmingham city who play in the league below the premier league so that statement is false. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dat Guy Stevo (talkcontribs) 15:02, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

@Dat Guy Stevo: "Just signed" is not the same as "has played for the first team". Maxwell is in the BCFC under-21 squad. Once he has actually played for the first team, he can have an article. JohnCD (talk) 15:24, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

he has actually played though. the Birmingham senior cup against lye town. And will this article get undeleted when he has made a league appearance or something? because he is eligible to play in the capital one cup and fa cup right now as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dat Guy Stevo (talkcontribs) 14:39, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

It is indeed a shame to have lots of work be thrown away on a page that may indeed become notable (given more research, writing, or likely future developments).

Pednekar is a notable person in the Hindi Film Industry with two confirmed films (one released and one in production) and multiple awards. -Monica982 (talk) 05:25, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

 Not done. @Monica982: regardless of Pednekar's notability, the article cannot be restored for two reasons:
  • The most recent version was a copyright violation, and we will absolutely not restore such an article.
  • This page is for requesting uncontroversial restorations. Before the copyvio version, the article was previously deleted as a result of the deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Bhumi Pednekar. Because of that, it cannot be restored by request on this page. You must ask the deleting administrator Coffee to reconsider, and if the administrator declines to restore it, then your next step is to present your case at Wikipedia:Deletion review.

I made minor updates to my userpage & then before I could even blink the page was flagged & completely deleted even tho I was in the process of working to make changes to rectify the complaints. I've had my userpage since 2013 & I've made edits to articles where I had value to add, I'd like a chance to get the source code back from the old page so I could at least use the hours of work I put in as a base for a new user page.

User:Jenny Death/sandbox

I request that my page be undeleted. I was planning to continue working on some tables I had there. Jenny Death (talk) 06:29, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

  • Done @Jenny Death: I've restored it since I do see that you have done some work on music related lists, but I have to warn you: I'm mildly concerned that creating a soundtrack list for all of the music in Saints Row might be considered a bit WP:INDISCRIMINATE since it's not a major feature of the game like it is for something like Rock Band. No reason you can't continue to work on this, but you'll likely need to provide some sourcing to justify a list page for the songs. (An example of a good list page can be seen at 2007 in downloadable songs for the Rock Band series.) Not all soundtracks and lists really warrant inclusion on Wikipedia. If this isn't being done with the intent to make an article page, please be aware that Wikipedia is not a WP:WEBHOST. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 08:30, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

The Unlucky 31

I forgot to save it as a draft, and accidentally published it without any references, notability, etc. -Tjsmith9656 (talk) 22:07, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

@Tjsmith9656:  Done - I have restored the page to User:Tjsmith9656/The Unlucky 31 where you can work on it; but there are two important things to say:
  • It seems from your username and the name of the company's website that you are connected with it. In that case, you should read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and the Wikipedia:Plain and simple conflict of interest guide. You will see that you should not submit an article directly, but may submit a draft for review by an uninvolved user. Note also that you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's Terms of Use ("Paid contributions without disclosure" under section 4), and in some jurisdictions by laws against covert advertising, to disclose your interest in any edits where you have a COI.
  • Wikipedia's inclusion criterion, called Wikipedia:Notability, is quite demanding: it looks for references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." Significant means more than just listing-type mentions; reliable excludes Youtube, Facebook, blogs, places where anyone can post anything; independent excludes the subject's own website, affiliated ones and anything based on press releases. The test is, have people not connected with the subject thought it significant enough to write substantial comment about? See also Wikipedia:Notability (summary). It seems to me wildly improbable that a shop founded two days ago can yet have acquired the independent comment necessary for notability, and I urge you to think hard about this and not to waste your time trying to get an article accepted.
I am sorry to be discouraging but Wikipedia is not here to help publicise start-ups. JohnCD (talk) 20:31, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

@Nasaspaceman: Done - as an Articles for creation submission deleted under CSD G13, the page has been restored on request to a new location at Draft:Pridwin Preparatory School. Please edit the page to address the issues raised when it was declined, and re-submit it; "Articles for creation" is not for the indefinite hosting of material found to be unsuitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia..
Please check out Wikipedia:Notability and Wikipedia:Your first article and note the need for independent references. Also, short though it is, this reads like a prospectus and is unacceptably promotional. An encyclopedia article is not a place for the school to tell the world about itself, in the first person ("We strive... "), and should not contain marketing fluff like "positive learning experience... unique and multifaceted potential... " Read WP:PEACOCK. You should write in a neutral tone, no opinions or glowing adjectives, just plain facts cited to reliable sources. If you are connected to the school, read WP:PSCOI and note that you are required to declare your interest. JohnCD (talk) 20:57, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
