I'm replying here rather than on the Military History Talk page, because the following are assumptions. They may help if you don't get a sourced response on that page:

d.R./Fl.: der (or Dienst [service], but that should be capialized) Reserve (Resierve?) Fliegerkorps (If he had a Luftwaffe reserve commission) (Can't remember the German spelling offhand)

Stab/Lg.Kdo. Moskau: Stab/Luftgruppe Kommando Moskau Staff of the Moscow Air Group Command

Koflug Thorn: Kommandoflug Thorn Thorn Flying (or Flight) Command Lineagegeek (talk) 14:18, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

I would have to defer to someone with more knowledge of the Luftwaffe command structure as to whether these are the exact names for the command involved. For example, since the Germans were forced in some cases to put training units on the front lines, it occurs to me that Lg could stand for Lehrgruppe as well as Luftgruppe. (one of the reasons I didn't want to embarras myself on the MILHIST talk pages). --Lineagegeek (talk) 20:50, 30 June 2014 (UTC)

I see I was right about embarrasing myself. I'll have to agree that the "g" in Lg. didn't stand for Gruppe (I thought the lower case g was being used to distinguish it from the upper case G, which is the usual abbreviation for Geschwader (traditional translation "wing"), even though the usual abbreviation for Gruppe is Gr. Luftgau Kommando Moskau translates something like Air Area Command Moscow. --Lineagegeek (talk) 22:24, 1 July 2014 (UTC)

Thank you for responding to my article about the Staten Island Clown

Sorry I took so long to respond back for I was doing a sabbatical, thank you for reaching out and getting back to me. The wording I used about it's marketing ploy being "genius" among others was stated by media outlets, and being a professor in marketing and management I agreed with that it was a well done publicity stunt. I did not intend for it to be promotional for the production company. I understand that youtube is not a good source of references but it was the videos that were on youtube which were from CBS, ABC, CNN, FOX etc that were being relayed. Again, thank you for your feedback, is there anyway the article could be reinstated and I could adjust/fix it so that it is not seen as promotional for its company's creators? Thank you for your time and I appreciate your feedback. — Preceding unsigned comment added by PenWriterX12 (talk • contribs) 20:37, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Galina Vale

Dear Jim, We created the page for music artist Galina Vale 5 years ago, the page was here all these time, was checked by moderators over the years and nobody have just deleted it for no reason. If you found any errors why you couldn't just correct it, why have you delete the page. We are requesting you to restore the page please.

Galina Vale

Hi Jim, What were the specific details in the Galina Vale article that constituted unambiguous advertising? I remember the article was somewhat brief and could be considered polemical in style; it probably didn't do justice to the subject. I am a newcomer to Wikipedia so would welcome your assistance in creating an article that doesn't violate any Wikipedia rules! I don't appear to have access to the discussion about the content which resulted in deletion. Many thanks Pupsikon (talk) 20:13, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

Galina Vale

Thanks for getting back to me! Looks like some problems with language expertise here, I'm guessing but probably English is not the first language for the editor, hence the copying and pasting from various sites (no offence intended). The text examples do jumble subjective and objective statements in an unfortunate manner, so maybe I can assist to untangle it. Still getting to grips with the technology here myself so the editor has my sympathies, but it may take some time! Pupsikon (talk) 08:41, 4 October 2014 (UTC)

Looks like the editor has problems. If you restore the page I'll have a go at rewriting it, I'm not quite up to creating pages yet - still learning the ropes! Shouldn't take me long, would welcome your assistance in creating a good article that will satisfy the Wiki criteria and hopefully do justice to the subject Pupsikon 15:26, 8 October 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pupsikon (talk • contribs)

Sorry about that, still learning. Pupsikon 15:35, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for that, I can see restoring the page in full would raise a problem for the reasons already covered. It would be helpful if you could provide a link so that I can access it. That way you could provide oversight and discuss any issues remaining problematic. Pupsikon 02:48, 9 October 2014 (UTC)

Deleting Ansarada

Hi Jim, just curious as to why you deleted the Ansarada page. As far as I can tell it is a valid topic. They were recently named the 5th best place to work in Australia, they have 90+ people working globally, and they have been used in dozens of $100Million+ deals. If the article was badly worded or needed more information I would be happy to do that. Let me know what you need to get it up and working again. Cheers, Triast (talk) 04:33, 1 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jim

I am disturbed that you feel that my page about the history of St Michaels Church in Chiswick was unambiguous advertising or promotion and frankly very surprised. The page contained historical facts about a church that is a listed building by a well known architect and traced its history including the memorial to the men who died in WW1. Please define your definition of what was wrong, the facts are well researched by the church team and evidence is available at the church to support this. Slightly confused and as we are not "advertising" anything this is clearly a mistake. Please let me know why you have deleted us in detail and I will ammend Basilcat1 (talk) 07:28, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Hi Jim

Thanks for your response, the article in Chiswick W4 is actually written by one of our congregation and he wrote the text I used ( you would not however have known that and I apologise), I will ensure he is credited and refered to, I already have his express permission and written evidence to support that - however I will make sure this is shown I will note all your points about style and following house style of Wikipedia, bit unsure about how all that worked but thanks for the reference to the other article. regarding COi I will make sure it is rewritten without what i understand you to mean, The Church is notable given its listing as a building of historical interest in the UK by the relevant UK bodies but again this needs to be demonstrated and I will make sure that is done . I will of course delete the main church message of "we" under the picture - fully understood. As this is my first go at Wikipedia I appreciate the guidance and help - very useful. May we have the page back and rewrite/resubmit as it took me a while to set it up ? Basilcat1 (talk) 11:23, 5 October 2014 (UTC)

Deletion of NSIT Page

The page you have linked to as the unambiguous copyrighted page is the actual copy of the wikipedia article. How was it determined that the site's data came before the page ? I had personally written most of the NSIT page 3-4 years ago while I was in college (so long ago that I dont even remember my username to Wikipedia and I have switched countries). I would request you to restore the page or atleast help do the same. If a DMCA notice was filed, please ask for proof that the page existed before the NSIT page.

The page referenced does not even list any sources and most content is just copied tidbits from the Wikipedia article.

@Smartsahilgulati:. I'm not sure what you are asking here. The article is shorter because the copyrighted text and promotional text have been removed. The copyright text cannot be restored for legal reasons, and it is obviously pointless to restore spammy sentences that will just get the article into trouble again. You are, of course, at liberty to add to the article, as long as your additions are neutral in tone and not copied from anywhere.

"Abbey Rader" - deleted from Articles for Creation and Sandbox - User: bodrad

Hi - thanks so much for your review of my article. I notice that you deleted it from both the Articles for Creation page, and it was then deleted from my personal Sandbox as well. In response, I would like to ask a couple of questions so that I can properly fix and attribute the article so that it can finally be posted.

First, let me mention that this article was already reviewed multiple times by another Wikipedia editor before I moved it to the Articles for Creation page. It was then also patrolled by another editor weeks later.

Next, I notice that you cited: G12 for this deletion, along with a particular reference (a webpage) from the Abbey Rader article. In reviewing that criteria, I am a bit confused. It states: "Text pages that contain copyrighted material with no credible assertion of public domain, fair use, or a compatible free license, where there is no non-infringing content on the page worth saving. Only if the history is unsalvageably corrupted should it be deleted in its entirety; earlier versions without infringement should be retained. For equivocal cases which do not meet speedy deletion criteria (such as where there is a dubious assertion of permission, where free-content edits overlie the infringement, or where there is only partial infringement or close paraphrasing), the article or the appropriate section should be blanked and the page should be listed at Wikipedia:Copyright problems."

The article uses a vast array of other sources and content beyond the website you listed, so I would contend that there is a lot of content that is work saving. Should I not be given a chance to make those corrections? In fact, it was entirely written by me, in my own "voice", and any quotes were clearly marked.

I've worked diligently on this article to ensure it meets all Wikipedia rules, had it reviewed, and followed all the appropriate steps. Could you please point out the infringements? Is it possible to restore the article, at least to my Sandbox at the least so I can make the corrections?

Thank you for your consideration as I learn the Wikipedia process. Bodrad (talk) 20:20, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

As far as I understand the situation, you are the subject of the sockpuppet investigation, and you are therefore not allowed to create or edit articles.

95.97.153.87 (talk) 08:43, 14 October 2014 (UTC)Yes, i am a sockpuppet of the blocked account. But do you know why I made a new account? Because the first account I made was one with a wrong account name. It wasn't allowed because it was the name of the subject, I didn't thought well about that. Then I made a new account so it wasn't in violation of the rules. I don't use the other account anymore, ever! Do you understand what I'm trying to explain? Thanks in forward!

Ilia932 (talk) 08:45, 14 October 2014 (UTC) Whoops, wasn't logged in. Sorry. But that was my reaction.

@Ilia932: You were initially blocked because you created an account with a promotional name, presumably because you didn't read the advice on choosing a user name, and used that account to promote the company of the same name. There is a procedure to get yourself unblocked, and to be permitted to create a new non-spammy username. Part of that procedure is to give assurances that you will not edit articles associated with the blocked username. User @Inter:, rather charitably, soft-blocked you so you could avoid this procedure and just open a new account. @Alexf: has taken the view that yours is nevertheless a sockpuppet account, and I am unwilling to override another admin and restore the article until that issue is resolved. It's him that you need to talk to; if he is satisfied that you have not broken our rules, then I will look again at restoring the article. Jimfbleak - talk to me? 10:08, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

The account was listed at WP:UAA and after investigation was soft-blocked with a warning on the users talk page for that reason. Talk to @Alexf: on the article restoration bit. Oz\^InterAct 11:45, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Deletion mis-process

hi, please revert your deletion as per the discussion at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions#lack_of_process_in_user:Jimfbleak.27s_deletion_of_Hiren.27s_BootCD. BenevolentUncle (talk) 22:34, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Wow, I've just read the previous msgs to you, most of which are people asking you for access to material that you deleted seemingly without warning. What processes are in place to monitor that you are not sapping energy from wp contributors by deleting too fast or without any warning at all? Have your habits been reviewed lately? BenevolentUncle (talk) 22:40, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

I've restored the contested article since the deletion has been questioned by an established editor. It could, of course, be nominated for a deletion discussion. I think you misunderstand the speedy deletion process. The point of the procedure is that discussion is not required, and even if the creator contests the deletion it usually doesn't effect the outcome (most common claim is on the lines of "it's not really promoting, just informing people about my company"). Most deleted pages are reviewed by two people, the SD nominator and the deleting admin, although I will delete the most blatant copyright violations and spamming on sight. In a minority of cases, people ask for the deleted pages to be sandboxed so that they can be rewritten in an acceptable form away from article space. I suspect that you didn't look at my replies to the messages asking for the text to be placed in user space, but where it is possible I always do so (the most obvious exceptions are verbatim copyright infringement, where we cannot legal host the pages anywhere, and sockpuppetry) My deletion and blocking logs, like the rest of my contributions, are a matter of public record, although you would need an admin to review the content of deleted articles if that is your concern. Obviously, over nearly twelve years of active editing, I sometimes get it wrong; if that is the case, I try to fix the problem. If you have concerns about my general editing practices, you will need to raise them here. If you do so, you will need to provide links or diffs to evidence of of your concerns, and to let me know of the discussion. I hope this helps, let me know if you have any further questions, cheers, Jimfbleak - talk to me? 05:55, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your impeccably civil reply. Could you also restore the Talk page, because:

• I think it makes a useful example re stage 2 of the concerns I have sketched, even if the article is later deleted.
• The Talk page and its history is useful in understanding the beast. E.g. I thought Hiren's was entirely without merit until I looked up (from memory) MrPeteWiki's contributions. Indeed, if possible, could you restore the Talk page from the the previously deleted version - it would have helped my investigations if I had had access to that before.
• There is a strong financial incentive for Hiren & Co to recreate the page and grow it to look like it did before, and perhaps it would be most sensible to have a complete record so that it is easy for subsequent editors to guard against a repeat whitewash in years to come. Hiren's CD may fail the test of having sufficient sources to justify a separate article (although it would be a fairly simple exercise for its authors to create such sources), but it is at least close to having sufficient notability, and I will be proposing that wp does the world a service if we don't enforce the rules in certain cases.

btw, I did understand that speedy deletions don't require discussion as per Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions#lack_of_process_in_user:Jimfbleak.27s_deletion_of_Hiren.27s_BootCD; my gripe was that it didn't qualify for speedy deletion because it had survived the deletion discussion (circa 2011??) after its 2010 deletion.

BenevolentUncle (talk) 11:56, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Please allow for sometime to comply with all policies. Thanks. --Ayman.alhasan (talk) 06:23, 15 October 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by BenevolentUncle (talk • contribs)
