deleted article 'GKR karate'

Dear R. Haworth, I've no other experience of creating Wikipedia pages than this one, which apparently you deleted Gkr karate. Is it really 5 years ago? If I remember rightly, I didn't publish it but kept it private, intending to edit it up to the point where it was worth publishing. I don't think I realized it could be deleted by an editor. Could I revive it, please - unpublished for now - so I can add to it and eventually publish it? Best wishes, Graham (talk) 18:58, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

  • Learn: a) to provide a wikilink when you talk about a page, b) the difference between "published", ie. in (article) space and "private", ie. in draft: or user: space and c) how to read your own contributions history! I have emailed you the text of Gkr karate which was the one and only contribution from Naughtydog101 (talk · contribs). Unless they have cleaned up their act significantly in the last five years you should include the criticisms by the naughty dog and McDojo - assuming sound references can be provided. (By the way: only admins can delete pages but "private" stuff can certainly be deleted for a variety of reasons. I have deleted a few hundred myself.) — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:52, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

I saw a deletion discussion for Keith Ferrazzi and voted keep after cleaning it up, and the nominator went to the article and peppered it with hatnotes to influence the voting. Is that allowed?

Your restoration of Danemann

Hi, RHaworth. I'm not sure I understand your deletion/restoration of Danemann. I tagged it for speedy as spam and because the text came from http://www.obriainpianos.com/page_145.html; you deleted it and restored it, twice, with 43 revisions out of the 50 restored the second time (with the comment "revert to non-spam, non-copyvio"). But my problem is that the way it looks now it's still all spammy, and still looks just like http://www.obriainpianos.com/page_145.html to me. Am I missing something? — Bishonen | talk 17:38, 3 July 2017 (UTC).

  • Re #Reminder below: what's the hurry. Don't be so impatient. Check out the edits that I left deleted. It was one of those cases where the subject of a well-established article changes it to spam and it nearly gets deleted. As to that which is currently showing, I suspect the copyvio may be in the other direction. Let us see what Cathal O'Briain has to say. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:22, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

Another post (not part of Bishonen's)

Hi, I was making an article for a non-profit organization All Our Kin that I'm interning at this summer. I'm a Yale student, and the organization is almost 20 years old. Can you explain why you deleted the article? I have to write one, as it is an assignment that I need to complete. And I wanted to ensure that I do it correctly this time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ashtan.towles (talk • contribs) 18:38, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Yet another post, also not part of Bishonen's

All Wedgies and related pranks. You deleted this under G3: Vandalism. This was an original post and not vandalism. I had no chance to give a reason to not delete the post, because it was marked for speedy deletion and speedy it was. The original/official Wedgie page was mostly describing a 'regular'. In my article, I was going to fit all of the wedgie types I am aware of into one page plus pranks administered along with them. I know the original one had related pranks, but I didn't feel like the pranks listed were connected to wedgies. I was going to make a more connected web of pranks usually done with wedgies and *all* wedgie types. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikitributoranon (talk • contribs) 19:47, 3 July 2017 (UTC)

Draft:Chloe + Isabel

Can you please restore this draft? It was not unambiguously promotional and the creator had previously requested it's restoration and had disclosed as per our policies. This is the point of AfC draft space. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 17:15, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

For what it's worth I endorse an undeletion. Happy to modify it to remove the guff if necessary. Primefac (talk) 17:22, 4 July 2017 (UTC) (talk page stalker)
  • WP:What Wikipedia is not, WP:Criteria for speedy deletion and WP:Deletion policy and Terms of Use support removal of violations of WP:Paid ("on any contributions", and disclosure is necessary) since all of the relevant edit summaries or the userpage did not contain the necessary disclosure each time. Because it was so promotional, it was not improved and therefore shows the promotionalism becomes WP:Disruptive. A second chance for the user to improve and without the necessary actions is enough to show the user couldn't make it satisfactory. SwisterTwister talk 18:53, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
SwisterTwister Perhaps you missed the giant disclosure that was on the top of the draft and their username. They hadn't resubmitted it for awhile and if you took issue with the content (that was not in violation of any policy) you should have taken it to MfD. Merely having a conflict of interest or being a disclosed paid editor does not automatically qualify any content they create for G11.CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 18:59, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
The contents were clear violations of the three policies I first mentioned. Not only single of the day "Drafts are exempt from deletion", in fact they say it applies to all pages, mainspace or not. Even with disclosure or not, it was clearly material unacceptable in Wikipedia's goals, which is therefore enough. As it says at MfD, contents that were controversial, and advertising is not at all controversial to remove, especially when it showed it was hopelessly promotional after 2 times. Also, again please don't ping. Actually, G11 says exactly that: "anything that would need a fundamental rewrite". FWIW, I would only support an undeletion as long as actually use a Foundation policy about it which is what our own policies adopt. Without it, there's no benefit to an encyclopedia. SwisterTwister talk 19:09, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
It is standard procedure to ping someone when responding on a talk page that is not their own. You seem unable to understand this policy - they disclosed, no where in this policy does it require every edit to disclose when it is very clear to anyone who can read that they are either a paid editor or have a conflict of interest when the notice is plastered to the top of the page and they are the only one editing the draft and their username clearly also identifies their conflict. Since you seem so keen on Wiki-lawyering: You must make that disclosure in at least one of the following ways. (emphasis mine). CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 19:22, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
  • The main important thing here is that there's no proof anywhere that Drafts are exempt from speedy deletion yet our 3 policies approve of it, therefore inarguable. SwisterTwister talk 21:22, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
Hi, please show me where I've ever said that "content in draft space is exempt from speedy deletion criteria." The issue here is not that there's no "proof." The issue here is that you've been disruptive, yet again to the point of being WP:POINTY, bordering on casting aspersions and have been proven wrong after making unfounded accusations and attempting to support a bad argument with policy that directly contradicts what you're saying. Since you seem so fond of quoting WP:NOT perhaps give this a once over: WP:bureaucracy. I also believe you're already familiar with WP:COIN. That's where your accusations of UPE/UCOI belong. It's not what G11 is for. Speedy deletion isn't a punishment for breaking the rules, it's meant to preserve the integrity of the encyclopedia. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 22:07, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
For what it's worth, I agree with Primefac that the draft should be undeleted. Is it too promotional to become a live article? Yes. Is it unsalvageable and starting over is easier than improving the draft? I don't think so. Thus the CSD don't apply. WP:NOT doesn't apply because it's clearly meant to be an encyclopedia article about a company. I don't see how the deletion policy is violated by the draft, and SwisterTwister hasn't made a case unless it was meant to be a redundant duplicate of the CSD. Huon (talk) 00:03, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
Yes, not all COI articles are spam. Only 90% of them are. If it is from a paid editor, probably 95%. It's more than a little difficult to fairly pull out of the heap the other 5 or 10%, and when the COI is as blatant as this, and the article as bad as this, and it has been turned down or deleted so many times, and the eventual notability so very borderline, it is probably not really worth our while to attempt to rescue what will never be an article.
And the person who tagged the article has no need to make a case for deletion, nor should they be blamed for it--the deletion is the responsibility of the deleting administrator. DGG ( talk ) 04:53, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
DGG FWIW, I agree it's the responsibility of the deleting administrator, however since ST butted into my request here, that is why the rest was brought up, since he wrongly implied this was a policy violation. I agree that this may not be notable however I do think G11 was a bad deletion and if there was an issue, it should have been taken to MfD, not speedy since A7 also doesn't apply in draft space and I see no harm in a resurrection to see if it can be adequately made as an article. If not, no harm, no foul and the encyclopedia is no worse off for having it as a draft for a couple of months. I, of all people, am not hesitant to tag spam, but as I said, I do not believe the last iteration of this met that criteria. CHRISSYMAD ❯❯❯¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 05:03, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
  • What a lot of waffle! Swister, please try and write in comprehensible English. It is in draft space so the rules about spam are less strict. The author has declared their CoI. So restore it. Swister, if you are not prepared to grant it six months more life, raise the matter at MfD. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:22, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
Well, apparently he couldn't wait six months. He's already listed it at MfD. Waggie (talk) 02:12, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi again, RHaworth. Not sure if you saw my post above?[1] I still have trouble understanding your deletion/restoration of Danemann. It looks to me like the version you restored is as much a copyvio as the one I speedied. Bishonen | talk 18:55, 4 July 2017 (UTC).

Paul George back to semi protection

Hey RHaworth. Bagumba recently increased protection on Paul George to admin-only due to content disputes regarding a transaction he is involved with. That transaction, a trade, has now been completed and made official [2] [3], so the page can be returned back now to semi-protect edit mode. I logged a request at Bagumba's talk page, but he is currently inactive. With this being a pressing event, the page needs to be returned back to allow confirmed users to edit the page to reflect the trade being officially announced. If you could help out, that would be much appreciated. Cheers. DaHuzyBru (talk) 17:48, 6 July 2017 (UTC)

Robert Quintanillo Olivores

Hi, I note that back in June 2015, you deleted Robert Quintanillo Olivores, a page created by User:Tejanohistory. I can't see what was in the deleted article, but as of late there have been many attempts to insert what appears to be an article which I suspect is what was deleted, into several pages, 4th & B'way Records, Cherrytree Records, Mercury Records (this one was self reverted), Safehouse Records and possibly others. There was also a page Robert Quintanillo Olivares which was deleted by another admin back in 2014 I believe.

Users involved have been User:Universal Music Distributor, User:Cherrytree Distributor (both blocked), User:Cherrytree Music Inc. and others, including several IPs most recently User:2601:2C1:4380:2280:53E:4863:3837:CA82. Fairly obviously all or most of these are socks. I'm hoping you can track them all down easier that I can and possibly protect some of the pages. Thanks. Dan D. Ric (talk) 11:49, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

End-user security awareness

I figured I'd start here in hopes of getting a draft restored. I had a draft on end-user security awareness where I pulled five bullet points from a blog that reposted them from another study. I cited the bullet points to the blog with what I thought was a proper citation. Is there any chance I can get my draft restored and remove the section marked for copyright? I simply will use the full report and cite the data myself if that was the problem. Thanks RHawroth, I appreciate your time!

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 Raffles Institution String Ensemble, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent. If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do.

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 removed 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.

Weird deletion

You deleted a Draft as U1 [6] which is Draft space not User space which seems incorrect Then an editor who was improving the page (but did not get creation credit for the first version) promptly recreated the article minus the sources and AfC comments. It popped on my watchlist. Can you look at the deleted page and new page and consider restoring the deleted page if it is the better version? I'm wondering if they are trying to game AfC because the page is pretty promotional. Or maybe the deletion was some sort of error. — Legacypac (talk) 00:56, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

  • Ks0stm, do the words "references", "external links" and "co-ords" suggest anything to you? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:58, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

I mean, they help somewhat, but I was trying to decide if you meant no evidence of notability, no evidence that it exists at all (i.e. hoax), etc. There are a lot of things there could be no evidence of. I see that it was deleted as "no evidence of notability", which is fine by me. I just didn't want to delete with the only public reason being a generic "no evidence". — Ks0stm (T•C•G•E)  If you reply here, please ping me by using {{re|Ks0stm}} in your reply.  21:46, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

  • Ks0stm, what a crazy, unside-down attitude. "No evidence" means just that - no evidence of any sort. It is therefore a much stronger reason for deletion than "no evidence of notability". — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:33, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Yeah? Ok. We'll go with that then. — Ks0stm (T•C•G•E)  If you reply here, please ping me by using {{re|Ks0stm}} in your reply.  03:42, 19 July 2017 (UTC)

Article deletion, question

RHaworth, Yesterday, July 15, you deleted an article on the Board of Certified Safety Professionals (BCSP), which I created to clean up an existing article on one of its certifications certified safety professional. The page on the CSP has been added to by various organizations over the years and now contains many tangential topics not related to the certification itself. Seeing that the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals established a wikipedia page, I sought to create one for the Board of Certified Safety Professionals, and clean up the Certified Safety Professional wikipedia page. Is there a way to have this restored? What was objectionable about the original copy that requires changes? I will gladly make those in order to restore the page. Best, Kiholmes (talk) 15:11, 16 July 2017 (UTC)

Distances between

Why was my page distancesbetween.com deleted? I was still working on my page. Since I am new to wikipedia, I did not know that Save Page will publish a page and it will be under review. Please retain the article. It is not yet complete. It was deleted when I was in the process of editing it. -- Juhimateen (talk) 10:34, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

Coverwallet

Hi Roger, I was creating a wiki entry for the company coverwallet but the page was marked for speedy deletion so I didn't have further opportunity to keep adding documentation on it. I would like to understand with you why the company does not represent significance to appear on wikipedia, being awarded important prizes and employing more than 70 people. I'm happy to review with you your point of view on the subject and apply the changes you think may be necessary to introduce the company in wikipedia, considering that companies in the same category have been included Insureon. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mememax (talk • contribs) 12:30, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

I'm sorry if I may have seem rude to edit, it wasn't the intention. Is there a place I can request a review for the significance of my company, or should I just wait for someone to talk about it in this space? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mememax (talk • contribs)

Recombinase-mediated cassette exchange

Hi RHaworth. This was a while ago, but I noticed you deleted File:RMCE.PNG back in 2013 as a G7. I posted this over at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Genetics, but I wanted to copy it here too: A friendly reader contacted the WP:OTRS team the other day and pointed out that the two figures in the Recombinase-mediated cassette exchange article are identical and that the caption to Figure 1 doesn't seem to make sense. I took a look and, indeed, the two figures, which have different captions that refer to different things, are both copies of File:RMCE2.PNG. A while ago, the article had another image, the now-deleted image File:RMCE.PNG. I think an error might have been made here, and I think File:RMCE.PNG should be undeleted and restored in the place of "Figure 1" in the article. Do you have any thoughts? Thanks, Mz7 (talk) 02:26, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

  • I have no idea how file:RMCE.PNG ever came to my attention. Now restored. I leave you to sort out its usage. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:33, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

deletes article 'Xi'an Muslim Quarter

Hello, I have already contested the speedy deletion by explaining that I am in the process of adding content to the page. You should have some consideration for time differences and people's need to eat, sleep etc. Actually, you deleted the page within an hour of my last edit, which was an almost immediate response to the speedy deletion tag. Your lack of patience is unfair. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dorisyong (talk • contribs) 11:40, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

  • Please learn: new messages go at the bottom of talk pages; always provide a link when you talk about an article. It is article suicide to try and develop in mainspace. Try again via AfC. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:41, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
    • I'd say very, very dangerous rather than suicide. I *have* pulled it off, but for pages about older defunct fraternities and sororities (and where I had access to Baird's Manual of American College Fraternities and a history book for the fraternity/sorority that they merged with) *and* I put in the Under construction tag *and* I worked on it more or less constantly. — Naraht (talk) 14:31, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Draft: AeroSource India

Hi, You deleted my draft that I was preparing: Draft:AeroSource India. I would like to clarify that it was not copied from that website and whatever was being written first hand. However the company seems to have the same description of it floating around, would request you to reinstate the article as a draft and also help me to make qualify for approval. It would be of great help. Thank you, Kushal B Kusram — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kushalbkusram (talk • contribs) 10:15, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

Flag speedy deletions

You recently deleted the redirects 🏴󠁮󠁯󠀰󠀲󠁿 , 🏴󠁧󠁥󠁴󠁢󠁿 , and 🏴󠁮󠁯󠀱󠀴󠁿 under WP:R3. In what sense are they “typos or misnomers”? — Gorobay (talk) 19:19, 20 July 2017 (UTC)

  • I have just tried on three different computers and on all three these redirects just appear as small squares or blanks or similar. Clearly they are using a very rare font that very few machines have. So tell me: what would I see if the fonts were installed? What earthly purpose do they serve? They cannot be used as search terms and they are not being used in any articles. I have a good mind to delete all 300 of the similar that you have created. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:15, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

They would look like the flags of various subnational regions. An example, with images so you can see it, is at http://emojipedia.org/flag-for-england/. The purpose is so that people who do have the fonts installed can search for them. They are not typos, misnomers, nonsense, invalid, unsearchable, or vandalism, so if you want to delete them, please take them to WP:RFD where they can be discussed. Please don’t unilaterally speedy-delete them per R3 when R3 does not apply, just because you personally see them as squares. — Gorobay (talk) 13:15, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

E-wing

Hello R Haworth, You recently deleted an attached file to the article Anne Ewing. I do not understand why. Is it because it was the wrong format (PDF vs. JPG)? Or is there another reason. I do not understand Wiki syntax well and the help pages are extremely hard for me to parse. I'd appreciate some advice. My original intention was to attach the PDF to provide a more detailed understanding of how the textbook requirements were changed. Thank you. SDFeminist2.0 (talk) 00:30, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

  • The PDF was totally useless for Wikipedia purposes. It is a primary source which we do not hold here. Upload it to your own website and then link to it from the article. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:15, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

Hello, May I please understand the reason as to why this page was deleted? Sunny Pawar is a Social Activist based in Mumbai and has done commendable work wrt social service, etc. and has got press coverage for the same as well and I wish to have him on Wikipedia. Can you please tell me what went wrong or what changes can I do for the same? — VidhiV (talk) 11:00, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

PRODs

Hi RHaworth, I appreciate your good faith concerns regarding the articles Hripsime's School for Girls (Yerevan), Fridtjof Nansen Museum, and Civil Aviation Museum (Armenia). It appears these articles were created by a new and inexperienced user. So I decided to improve them. I've added sources to these articles to fix these urgent concerns. Hopefully that'll be enough justification to remove these PRODs. Thanks! Étienne Dolet (talk) 19:55, 22 July 2017 (UTC)

  • Total absence of references to information in English so impossible for me to tell whether there are independent references. In the Nansen case: a) the grammar seems to break down circa "Refugees, Fridtjof Nansen in the design" and b) it would be interesting to know what the connection is between Nansen and Yerevan. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:15, 24 July 2017 (UTC)

Lutontownfc Sandbox

You deleted the Sandbox I worked so hard on. I put almost everything that came into my head into that Sandbox, such as imaginary people, characters, boxers and plans for a story. Now it has been deleted, I'd like to find a way to have this page back. I never intended to move the page to this mainspace thing, I just wanted to change the name of the Sandbox. I don't think you even have the right to delete some drafts for pages I never even intended to make. That was private content that I never wanted others to view. I demand that you get my Sandbox back, no matter what! — Lutontownfc (talk · contribs) 20:45, 24 July 2017 (GMT)

Lutontownfc, when you post anything to Wikipedia, even in a sandbox, you make it public and agree that anyone may edit it in any way, and that anyone may view it, or copy it, repost it elsewhere, or even sell it. Nor is Wikipedia to be used as a free web host for things "never intended" for the article mainspace. "Demands" are not likely to be taken seriously. Polite requests possibly might. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 02:53, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
  • What a barefaced cheek! You admit to using Wikipedia as a free host and then you have the effrontery to demand that the page be restored. If you promise to keep your fantasies a long way from Wikipedia and ask me nicely, I will email you the content of the page. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:03, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Peoplesopen.net article

The article was deleted under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. The Peoplesopen.net organization and the network that it has built serves hundreds to thousands of people on a daily basis, and most likely has served millions over its 4 year history, owing to its operation in a high population metropolitan area. The above fits the guidelines for Wikipedia:Credible claim of significance. l also wrote a protest using the protest link from the speedy deletion template, citing the above, as well as an NPR audio (not text) report featuring Peoplesopen.net that can be listened to at the WBUR radio website. The article's subject fits the guidelines for Wikipedia:Notability. The protest in the talk section of the page has also been deleted within the day without any apparent review. Please restore the deleted page so l can add the claims and citaion. If l don't see the page restored or hear from you within a few days, l will rewrite the page from scratch. — Ellesmelle (talk) 10:49, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

  • I am dubious about its notability and certainly you made absolutely no attempt to provide evidence of its notability. No need to re-write from scratch - read this. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 13:03, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

l see you've responded on this talk page then deleted my message to you as well as your own response. Again, this article fits the Wikipedia:Credible_claim_of_significance criteria. — Ellesmelle (talk) 20:09, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

How to reverse a deletion?

What I said was that... 1-I am the owner of the web page that was similar to http://davidr.net/charts.html 2-That web page is now gone.

I can find NO reference to this matter anywhere on your page(s) nor Chris' page(s). Maybe I do not know what I am doing?
