Revision as of 18:25, 23 April 2013
Requests for undeletion is a process intended to assist users in restoring pages or files that were uncontroversially deleted via proposed deletion, under certain speedy deletion criteria (such as maintenance deletions or rejected Articles for creation drafts), or in "articles for deletion" debates with little or no participation other than the nominator. This page is also intended to serve as a central location to request that deleted content be userfied or emailed to you so the content can be improved upon prior to re-insertion into the mainspace, or used elsewhere (you may also make a request directly to one of the administrators listed here). This means that content deleted after discussion—at articles for deletion, categories for discussion, or miscellany for deletion among other deletion processes—may in some cases be provided to you, but such controversial page deletions will not be overturned through this process.
This page is only for requesting undeletion of articles or files which have already been deleted. If the article you are concerned about is still visible, but has a warning message (template) at the top, please do not post here, but follow the instructions on the template or on your talk page.
Note that requests for undeletion is not a replacement for deletion review. If you feel an administrator has erred in closing a deletion discussion or in applying a speedy deletion criterion, please contact them directly. If you discuss but are unable to resolve the issue on their talk page, it should be raised at Wikipedia:Deletion review, rather than here.
To contest deletions that have have already been discussed (in particular, at Articles for deletion), or that are likely to be controversial, please make a request at Wikipedia:Deletion review instead. |

Burnpur cement
the article has been written by me, so it does not violate any copyrights. Secondaly, the company is a leading manufacturer of cement in india and hence is of importance to the public(a proof of this is that many people have searched for the wiki page of the company on google) this was the reason that prompted me to create this article -Rishabhgutgutia (talk) 20:01, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
- Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles about companies. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning companies will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject.

Aneuch
The reason given for the page being deleted is that the software was "only" created 7 months ago, and doesn't "seem" to have any notability. The 7 month comment notwithstanding, the latter part seems woefully subjective. I'm the developer of the application the page covered, and can assure you I'm quite actively working on it. I see no reason why the page should be excluded from the community. -Cajunman4life (talk) 20:20, 16 April 2013 (UTC)
- Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. Let me point you to our policy about conflict of interest, though. Lectonar (talk) 08:39, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
- I will review COI. I didn't intend it to be an advertisement, merely information. I'll do what I can to insure I'm not self-promoting, I only wanted information about it to be available on the source I most use myself for info (wikipedia). Thanks.--Cajunman4life (talk) 14:09, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
- The point is more: even if not intended as advertising, results from Wikipedia usually show in the first 10 results, so what you get is: unpaid advertising. Better to let someone else write articles about something I am (professionally) related to, imho. Almost no one is that altruistic ....but we have our policies, and so the article is restored. Regards. Lectonar (talk) 14:15, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Certain(horse)
When looking at wiki Arkansas Derby winners over the past 100 years, the yea 1999 Certain has + by his name. the only refence that Wiki gives is Valhol was the winner. So why not explain the + on this horse. It is the most important black mark in horse racing history. Valhol's jockey Billy Patin was caught cheating by using a electical device to make his horse run faster. This info needs to be told somewhere in wiki. So we should just let cheaters not get noticed. The winning jockey for this race would have recieved a paycheck for 10% of the winning purse or $30,000 would have been his part of the winning purse money. Dont let cheats get away with it let the story be told. -Certain99 (talk) 06:00, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Certain(horse)
Wiki admin says the info is to short and not notible. Here is my take on that. Then lets delete most of the racehorses from the database becasuse they are all to short. Certain that competed against Cat Thief has twice the info and is just as important as Cat Thief. If you turn on the TV and cheating is brought up in horse racing the 2 horses brought up everytime is the 1999 Arkansas Derby where jockey Billy Patin is accused of using or caring a electical stimulating device during the race. The +++++++ sign next to Certain name in 1999 Arkansas Derby needs to be explained -Certain99 (talk) 06:17, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

- Try submitting it at articles for creation, and you will get a step-by step guide on how to write an article; btw, if the article should be about yourself (one never knows ;)), mind our policy regarding conflict of interest. Lectonar (talk) 12:54, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles about music.

American Society for Muslim Advancement
I don't remember this article, but it might make sense to merge its material to the articles about the co-founders, then redirect to founder page. Because the article has already been deleted, I have no way of knowing what it contained. I'm surprised it went through the speedy deletion process rather than the normal deletion process if there was a notability question. - Flatterworld (talk) 14:59, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Envita
Deleting this page was unnecessary. It was not an advertisement. I tried to write it as objective as possible and was working to improve it. There was a "notability" deletion warning, but I was working to prove the notability. Envita is just as notable as MAYO Clinic or Cancer Treatment Centers of America, but at least the page for CTCA was given a warning. I was given until Saturday to prove that (which I believe I did a sufficient job of, using multiple sources outside of the website and remaining objective) but this speedy deletion request came out of left field. Please reverse this deletion so I can instead improve the article. -Blatantly Evil (talk) 17:16, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- As notable as the Mayo clinic? Um, no. Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles about companies. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning companies will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 17:42, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- The guidelines say "An organization is generally considered notable if it has been the subject of significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources." Envita fits these guidelines. They've been featured on ABC 15[1] and numerous other secondary sources. I don't understand why I wasn't even given a chance to defend my article before it was deleted. That's all I'm asking for. A chance to improve this article, make it more objective, etc. Like I said, CTCA was given that chance and still haven't improved since the warning was issued in February 2012! Tell me what I'm missing, because I'm trying to be compliant. Blatantly Evil (talk) 17:52, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
Not done. A paid interview (look carefully at 4:30) on a local network affiliate, hardly satisfies either WP:GNG or WP:CORP. I agree that the article is not advertising, but there isn't a hint of importance asserted, so it might as well have been deleted under WP:CSD#A7. Toddst1 (talk) 20:20, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
- Fair enough. I can try to find more proof of importance, but I'm glad you at least agreed it wasn't an advertisement. I personally value objectivity very highly and my only goal was to improve on that. Blatantly Evil (talk) 20:39, 18 April 2013 (UTC)
The Transport for London Forum
There is no reason for deletion, there wasn't a discussion on the reasons for deletion it just simply disappeared. It's a genuine and helpful article which has a right to be included on Wikipedia. -Kylesw555 (talk) 23:37, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Joaquin Lievano
reasoning -Tonbo0422 (talk) 00:31, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
I request that the deletion of the start of my page for musician Joaquin Lievano be un-deleted.
I did not put the page up for my own edification and further, knowing it was probably going to be deleted by your zealous axe-wielders probably before the last letter had been typed, I did not go into detailed linking or any other information other than to wonder aloud WHY no page had been created for Mr Lievano.
Apparently, your deletors do not even do even a bare minimum of checking (say, typing "Joaqin Lievano" into a Google search box -- perhaps it would waste a valuable 12.86 microseconds from your busy deletion schedule) or they would have quickly discovered that Lievano is not an 18-year-old wannabe musician acting on his heart's desire to see himself on *gasp* WIKIPEDIA! but is a seasoned professional musician, as mentioned in my brief blurb, who not only has put out a significant number of commercial musical CDs but has performed live on stage with such jazz greats as Jean-Luc Ponty, Andy West and many, many others.
Please take the time out to visit the following links:
http://guitargear.org/2007/07/17/yet-another-incredible-guitarist-joaquin-lievano/ http://www.amazon.com/Joaquin-Lievano/e/B000APVN5G http://grooveshark.com/#!/artist/Joaquin+Lievano/1865705 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmic_Messenger (note guitar player in the credits) http://www.allmusic.com/album/one-mind-mw0000198220
I am not a friend of Lievano's but as lover of jazz and guitar i couldn't help but be appalled that Lievano does not even rate a sentence on Wikpedia.The least you could have done was email me at the email address provided and at least asked why this guy deserved his own page, but let me tell you -- he's more deserving of his own Wikipedia page than is Joaquin Phoenix.
Obviously your job is not to question anything, merely robot-like, delete anything about anyone who doesn't come with a begging bowl in hand. Pretty shoddy treatment of a very fine musician. I can almost guarantee that Justin Bieber's Wikipedia monument is at least 17 printed pages long where he deserves prompt and unquestioning deletion as opposed to Lievano, who DOES NOT deserve such dismissive attitudes.
However, from what I know of Wikipedia's "moderators" the futility of such protests matches the futility of trying to outwit the Borg.
Sleep well and don't let the air escaping from your inflatable Madonna doll disturb you overmuch.

Andrew Grayham Doe
I'm requesting that the former page "Andrew Grayham Doe" be userfied as I am willing to take the groundwork developed and add further references and reliable sources before moving it back into the mainspace. The writer in question is comparable to someone like Alan W. Pollack and has been used as a reference by a myriad of authors distributed by a range of publishers. Though an argument for the delete was the use of liner note essays in the sourcing of content, they were published by Capitol Records and as such are officially sanctioned by the record label of the band and exhibit his ties to the organisation. -Jamekae (talk) 04:09, 19 April 2013 (UTC)
Not done - As announced at the top of the page, 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 at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Andrew Grayham Doe, 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 Courcelles (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. Yunshui 雲水 07:40, 19 April 2013 (UTC)- Actually, ignore that: User:King of Hearts pointed out that a userfication request isn't the same as a straight undeletion, so I've userfied it instead; it's now at User:Jamekae /Andrew Grayham Doe.

Page was deleted by Yunshui, under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. I fail to see how a person who presumably knows nothing about Welsh actors is qualified to decide whether or not Jason May is notable. I have a vested interest in Welsh films, and can state, for the record, that Jason May is a prominent professional Welsh actor, and most definitely a notable personality. The page consisted of a brief precis, and was acknowledged as such, being marked as a stub. I would like the page replaced. At the very least, I would like access to the template, so I can add the relevant sources. -Cromanology (talk) 07:18, 19 April 2013 (UTC) Cromanology (talk) 07:18, 19 April 2013 (UTC)

- Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles about companies. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning companies will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. Even if not deleted as advertising, it still does not pass the notaility threshold. The other problem really is the tone in which it was written: talking about "missions" is advertising-like.

- This was a valid speedy deletion for a lack of any claim of notability. In fact, the Wikipedia guidelines strongly discourage users from creating an article about themselves; Wikipedia is not a vehicle for self-promotion.

Please see the criteria for speedy deletion and the relevant notability guidelines - articles that are not in compliance will be deleted.

Please do not remove this article, as I am continuing to add content and references. Other finalists of The X Factor who have not yet released any music have their own Wikipedia page, so I feel that Union J should have an article based around their band too.

The Gurdjieff Journal
Originally this article was deleted because of the two following automated reasonings: 1. It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information. 2. It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. The Gurdjieff Journal is published trianually and has been in continuous publication since it's establishment in 1992. It is the first journal devoted to G.I. Gurdjieff and The Fourth Way. Included in every issue are timely feature articles, essays, interviews and book and film reviews expounding and applying the principles, perspectives and practices of the teaching to everyday living. It is a mature journal standing on it's own as do similar journals like Parabola (magazine), Christianity Today, etc, yet carries no advertising which tends to influence what is written to appease advertisers. Also, I have an expanded version to fill out the article notating all the issues, images of critical issues, etc. -Waterman12 (talk) 05:34, 20 April 2013 (UTC)
- The article does read as spam. It needs to be written from a neutral point of view and requires referencing to independent third-party reliable sources to both show notability and verify the information content. That being said, the article has never been deleted and so there's nothing to ask for here. The article has only been redirected.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:20, 20 April 2013 (UTC)

- I have no reason to believe that the tagging was invalid. The Flickr page clearly had a 2.0 Attribution tag, and I see no evidence that the Flickr uploader does not own the image. The Flickr account is identified as Lunchbox LP, and their website seems to corroborate the artists photographed on their Flickr account.

You may work on improving the article's assertion of notability at its new location, but please contact RHaworth (talk · contribs), the administrator who deleted the page, before moving it back to the article space. Please see the criteria for speedy deletion and the relevant notability guidelines - articles that are not in compliance will be deleted; also, read carefuly the important policies WP:Biographies of living persons and WP:Neutral point of view.

deleted because subject was non-notable because subject is not the subject of source articles. The standard for notability, though, specifically states that that the subject need not be the main topic of the source material. Even so, sources included a profile of the subject in a major newspaper as well as interviews with the subject in high profile media - WIRED, CNN.com etc. -198.84.235.45 (talk) 02:37, 22 April 2013 (UTC)

Joshua Frank
Curious as to why this page was deleted. I am not associated with Mr. Frank, but am an avid reader of his work and the site he edits, CounterPunch, which is also a monthly magazine. The site is one of the most popular left-wing political magazines in the United States. As such, this alone is notable as Frank's place in this spectrum is significant. Please visit's CounterPunch's page for verification of this assessment. Additionally, Frank has been awarded journalism awards and is often cited as a significant environmental journalist. I believe the references I used as well as the external articles I linked verify this. Please review. reasoning -Counterp (talk) 17:47, 22 April 2013 (UTC)
