Hello. How did you do this? You just deleted my page without giving me 3days to explain my side. I felt like you have stepped on my ego as a page creator.!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by JmKissme (talk • contribs) 14:44, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
rm speedy deletion of latif yahia page in favor of lock request
hi, I put the wiki bio page up for speedy deletion. Not 100% convinced yet if this user deserves a wiki bio, but have reconsidered deletion in favor of locking page, and reversion to an Accurate version.
Users: "81.83.157.57", "AMA2010", "2.49.216.202", and "TVNEWS11" appear to be created for the sole purpose of spreading misinformation about this person, erasing CITED information about the topic (ie: my research), and promoting a book and movie about the claims.
I've also contacted Admin C.Fred about this, who has edited the page in the past, requesting page protection and reversion. I tried to undo some of the fake user edits, but it got to be tedious, and i figure you admins can do it easier anyways. Thanks!

File (Image) deleted
Hi You deleted File:Mobile payments model india.png under F3. Considering I created this image on my own, was the problem that I had chosen to upload it under a license that limited derivatives..etc.? Let me know what needs to be done to restore the image because it acts as a simple pictorial summary for a section of the article. Tanmaig (talk) 11:55, 6 January 2012 (UTC) Tanmaig(talk)
- I tagged this image for deletion because I believed it was a copyright violation (image extracted from a copyrighted document and presented as own work). The image description helpfully said where it came from, but now it is deleted I cannot see the source and recheck; if I got that wrong I apologise, and it should be restored. I subsequently also nominated File:Mobile growth india.svg and in this case I definitely was incorrect; the data - not image itself - was taken from a copyrighted document. I have removed the speedy tag from that one. RichardOSmith (talk) 14:59, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
Hello,
My page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Samara got deleted due to allegedly being advertisement. I would like to know why was it considered advertisement and what makes it advertisement.
I am asking this again since i did not have a straight answer why the page is not acceptable. My intention is to correct it and resubmit it.
Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pedro Bestler (talk • contribs) 14:37, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
I thought that you would be able to help rather than simply put what caused the deletion. I need to understand the cause for the deletion, not just a standard reply as that is not going to help. If you are not able to help please let me know of someone else that i can contact to help me understand how to create the same article in a different way so that i don't have to go through this process again. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pedro Bestler (talk • contribs) 11:16, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

This and associated pages have been speedily deleted incorrectly. I contested this as soon as I became aware of the issue but my following of 'due process' has been ignored. A simple look at the page history makes it obvious that after 100s of contributions this page does not deserve speedy deletion. How is this recified??Rjstott (talk) 20:59, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- [1]. Revise the body of the article as you had intended. Once you're done, I'll give you the deleted text of the infoboxes, categories, meta-templates, ect, so you can re-create the article. -FASTILY (TALK) 21:11, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
Sorry, this doesn't fix it at all. Nor do I or anyone else now have access to the original article to enable recovery on the non-copyvio text. I had no intention of changing it at all, I was just the original author. If there was just one sentence that showed copyvio then this was easily fixed with appropriate identification and edit. Rjstott (talk) 18:06, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
Have found the text on a wiki mirror but can't spot the copyvio nor can I move the non-wikipedia material easily because of formatting issues. Any chance you can let me have the original wiki entry as a text file that I might re-engineer into the article which is already being re-written from scratchRjstott (talk) 18:15, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
Copyvio
This image File:Tim Burton Image425.jpg is just a cropped version of this copyvio File:17566561-17566563-large.jpg you deleted. Can you either delete it or add the source info that I seem to remember was on the deleted image? ww2censor (talk) 20:56, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- We can't use it anyways: the file is non-free and Tim Burton is still alive. Textbook violation of WP:NFCC#1. At any rate, this was the source. Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 21:13, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
Hi Fastily. Would you consider salting 4shared? its gone through an AfD with the result of delete and has been repeatedly recreated since. It seems that there is little chance that a viable version is going to be created. Just a thought. Best, Sparthorse (talk) 21:57, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- Second the motion. Ive nominated it twice for speedy now, and it looks like its been created and deleted 5 times today. Gaijin42 (talk) 22:01, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
- I have left a waring for User:Articleperfector. If they recreate the article, we'll remedy this with blocks, not salting. -FASTILY (TALK) 22:18, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Dakota Curling Club part 2
Hi Fastily, This is Ryan, the Dakota Curling Club President, I believe the information on http://www.spiritus-temporis.com/dakota-curling-club/history.html was taken from wikipedia and not the other way around. For example, compare the information for the St. Paul Curling Club with that on spiritus-temporis. Likewise compare the Geographic information for St Paul with that on spiritus-temporis and you'll see that the spiritus temporis is nearly identical to parts of the wikipedia entry. In fact, spiritus temporis says they get their data from publicly available sources, probably including wikipedia. Please undelete our wikipedia page Dakota Curling Club entry. Thanks, Ryan DCCLeagueMgr (talk) 18:31, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
I've read the G12 provision multiple times, but as I said, that other website (spiritus temporis) copied this content out of wikipedia. We (the Dakota Curling Club) wrote the original wikipeida article when we first opened the club. If anything, spiritus temporis is in violation of the Creative Commons license associated with wikipedia for not attributing their work. How do we get the original text and article back?

Fbot task 4
Do you think it would be possible to either
- a) run Fbot task 4 daily at 23:00 UTC for the rest of the month; or
- b) give me a copy of task 4 so that I can do it?
I'd like to have it run right before the daily stats are compiled for the drive. Thanks, Sven Manguard Wha? 23:41, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
P.S. Thanks for the kind words re: the RfA.
- I definitely am not able to run the bot daily. Presently, I run it once a week. I'll be happy to give you the program and let you run it, if you're able to secure BRFA approval. And you're most welcome! :) Regards, FASTILY (TALK) 00:53, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Here's the thing. It would be so much simpler if I had a copy of task 4, but then again, I could also make use of tasks 2, 5, 6, 8, 11, 14, and 15 (and probably whatever else you come up with next). In order for me to be able to use any of them, I think you'd have to do some recoding, and I myself have about the same knowledge of javascript as your average squirrel does, so I can't help, or fix anything that goes wrong. For the once a month that I'd want anything run, it's just as easy to ask you to do it. There's no reason for me to ask you to spend hours coding me in, and then keeping me up to date when the code changes. If it were all on toolserver and I could stick in a password and click a button, it'd save me asking you, but none of your programs are built that way. Nevermind, I guess. Just please have task 4 run daily now, and during future drives. Sven Manguard Wha? 04:19, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Again, I'm unable to run the bot daily. Believe it or not, it's not that difficult for me to code in a login function as described above, and I'd be happy to do that if you could secure BRFA approval for any of the above tasks. If you're planning on running the bot off the toolserver, I can also supply you with a bash script that will run the program indefinitely. -FASTILY (TALK) 07:11, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oh wow, misread... I did not see the "not" in "not able" there at all. Please code Svenbot in for task 4, I'll be filing a BRFA shortly. Sven Manguard Wha? 13:36, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Wikipedia:Bots/Requests for approval/Svenbot 2 has been speedy approved, so as soon as you have the code ready, I can start the run. Sven Manguard Wha? 15:38, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

deleted Category talk:A-Class Disability articles
Hi. Did you check the authorship of the page Category talk:A-Class Disability articles before deleting it because an author who had not edited it requested deletion under CSD G7? Did you read the notice I added to the cat page? Did you read the contested deletion section on the talk page? Please restore this, which is needed by WP Disability, or explain to me how a project is supposed responsibly to manage its classification categories. Thanks. --Mirokado (talk) 00:42, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- You blanked the page on December 31st, 2011. In accordance with WP:CSD#G7, page blanks by the sole author of a page can be interpreted as a request for deletion by the author. -FASTILY (TALK) 00:48, 7 January 2012 (UTC)
- Ah, very sorry, you have just removed the talk page! I have spent most of the day worrying about someone trying to delete another article and "must have lost my presence of mind" (link for when you feel like relaxing and a laugh). Yes deleting the talk page was fine as I decided the project template is not helpful for mass-produced pages like that. I think next time I will add the deletion template myself instead of just blanking the page. Thanks and sorry again. --Mirokado (talk) 01:01, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

Deleted DirectFix
Hi,
You deleted the page I created "DirectFix". To be fair I ask that you either re-instate the page or go delete the following pages. If you look at the pages I created and compare it to iFixit you will notice we are the same type of company. I used very similar wording like their page because it is live and not deleted. Please look at their page and then look at mine and if you deleted mine then I ask you to delete theirs and also iResq. Here are the links.

Here is what we had on our page. We have great references go search us on the internet.........Again this is not fair... our info is just as valid as iFixit yet you are showing favoritism to them by deleting us and not them.
