Sandy Fields - editor is at it again

You were the closing admin at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Sandy Fields (2nd nomination), which resulted in speedy delete per G4. The original creator was User:Theo Jeffries who was warned extensively about recreating a deleted article. Today, User:William Jeffries created an account and then re-created Sandy Fields. This person is sockpuppeting, disruptively editing, recreating previously deleted articles and clearly disrespecting the entire Wikipedia process.

Can you: (a) permanently block both users, (b) delete Sandy Fields (again), and (c) is there any way to prevent the re-creation of an article?

Thanks, Jrcla2 (talk) 15:33, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Jrcla2! Thanks for monitoring the situation. I blocked both accounts (and didn't formally confirm, but it's fairly obvious re: socking, so I blocked for suspected socking), looks like Sandy has been deleted. I did a WP:SALT to the article so it can only be created by Sysop's now. Thanks again for being on the lookout! SarahStierch (talk) 17:58, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Thank you. Jrcla2 (talk) 20:19, 30 December 2013 (UTC)

Deletion of article The Yellow Wallpaper (film)

Dear Sarah:

Rquirements per WP:NF satisfied.

Evidences of Notability per above article:

1. "The film is widely distributed": 4 major studios have (or are) distributing this title: Netflix (2012-2013), Amazon Studios, ITunes Studios, Inception Studios, Government

backed institutions (Baker and Taylor) Libraries across U.S.

2. "The film is historically notable": a. "Publication of 2 non trivial articles within 5 years": There are too many articles on Google, search engines, magazines to note here, plus the referenced 125,000 print run

of discussion and referencing the film in Harbrace Guides for colleges and universities across America.

3. "Some films do not pass the above tests....and should be evaluated on their own merits".

a. "the film represents a unique accomplishment in cinema".... this is the only period film shot on the 950 camera (same as Avatar). this needs a reference and the article

needs to be expanded regarding this. This film is the only feature film made from the historical story. the film in 1989 was a TV movie. for more here, article needs to be

re-posted and expanded.

4. "the article has significant involvement of notable persons":

Notable people: 5 time emmy award winner, golden globe winner, 2 time tony winner: Michael Moriarty Notable person: 3 time emmy award winner Veronica cartwright Notable person: Independent spirit award winner Dale dickey Notable person: emmy award winner Raymond j. barry Notable person: Juliet landau, daughter of Martin landau, star of buffy the vampire slayer Notable person: writer Charlotte Perkins Gilman, social revolutionary, writer, feminist

5. This article was approved for 6 years by previous editors at wikipedia and expanded.

There is a lot more, but the article needs to be expanded.

Where has the original article gone with the references? etc?

Thank you for your help.

Delete merge several articles about towns in Shangzhi county, Hunan

I'm trying to clean up a little after a series of deleting discussions about towns in Shanzhi county, Hunan which were done in a batch because of their similarity. They were closed as "merge "X" into "X, Sangzhi", but I believe this is a mistake. The nom suggests this but the editors agreement is per their rationale stated at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Zhuyeping. There it is pretty clear that the concensus supports merging "X, Sangzhi" into "X". I started performing the merges in-line with that assumption, but I stopped because I worried that going against the stated result of the discussion was likely to lead to confusion for anyone paying attention (probably no one). So, can I be bold and continue making these merges as I have with Zhuyeping, Liaojiacun and Lifuta. I have been making this kind of merge because of my understanding of the place article titles guidelines, see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (geographic names)#Disambiguation and WP:PRECISE. It is my understanding that the shorter less specific name is prefered where no disambiguation is needed. Is this a correct understanding of the guidelines, that names like Lifuta, Shanzhi should be Lifuta if no other topic has that name?

Should I continue moving and merging, should I stop and wait for some thing else to happen first, should I reverse the merges that I have made? - Metal lunchbox ^(talk) 11:33, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Hi there. I suggest keep being bold, and frankly, if you haven't been pinged on your talk page about it keep going ;) I also agree that following the naming convention link you shared is best - I do the same when editing cities and places for the layout, and never had a problem when someone has challenged my changes. Thanks for being bold, and editing. Happy New Year! SarahStierch (talk) 17:59, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the prompt guidance. - Metal lunchbox ^(talk) 18:03, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

Dear Sarah,

Happy New Year! Could you please review the many warnings at the top of the Ressence page, and my comments in regards to this on the page's "talk" page. I have tried to ensure it now meets all the standards, and it would be great if the many warnings could be reviewed and deleted...

With many thanks,

Dear User:Maliangkay. I regret to say that I'm pretty busy with some offline projects and some other things right now, and I would like to ask that you request review and assistance for that article at the Teahouse, a space I co-created to help editors find friendly and fast assistance. They will be able to provide more feedback faster about your article than I can at this time. Thanks for contributing to Wikipedia! SarahStierch (talk) 16:44, 2 January 2014 (UTC)

Miku Matsumoto article deletion

Hello Sarah,

Recently, you were the closing admin for the former page dedicated to retired mixed martial artist Miku Matsumoto. The article was removed due to what was cited as a lack of "top-tier fights." I believe that the page was removed in error and I would like to explain why before making use of the deletion review process.

The current "top-tier" criteria for fighter pages lists Jewels (mixed martial arts) as one of the promotions deemed eligible for consideration for female fighters. Below it, Deep (mixed martial arts) is listed as a "second-tier" promotion and is only deemed eligible for consideration for male fighters.

The main issues with this are that: 1) Deep was the "big brother/sister" promotion to Jewels and the companies are now merged under one banner, so Deep should surely be given equal or greater weight in comparison to Jewels, which was a much smaller promotion, 2) At the time that Miku Matsumoto was competing, Deep was the second-largest MMA promotion in Japan and its female champions typically received greater recognition than most of its male champions, and 3) As the final Deep women's lightweight champion, Matsumoto was the holder of what is generally thought to have been the most prestigious women's title in Japanese MMA history so far.

In addition to the points above, Matsumoto also defeated the following fighters who all have Wikipedia pages that remain intact: Rena Kubota, Seo Hee Ham, Hisae Watanabe (whom she defeated for the Deep title) and Lisa Ellis. Also, Deep's other women's champion, Satoko Shinashi, still has an active page. I have never before questioned an article's deletion and probably won't again, but I do feel strongly that the page for Miku Matsumoto is worthy of restoration. If I can be of assistance by adding new references and/or bio information to the page should it be restored, I will gladly do so. Thank you for your time.

Hi there! Thanks for editing Wikipedia and I'm sorry that the article for deletion process didn't lean the way you prefer. Since I don't handle undeletion discussions on my talk page, I ask that everyone take them to WP:Deletion review, because I could not undelete the article without the community coming to consensus for that. All heck would break lose if I undeleted something even given your earnest effort to express why the subject may pass the general notability guidelines and those guidelines for athletes. I suggest that you post it on deletion review, and perhaps solicit the participation of people from the MMA community here on Wikipedia, and also the women's sports Wikiproject. I'm sorry I can't be more help. I do appreciate your contributions. SarahStierch (talk) 16:41, 2 January 2014 (UTC)
