I'm an independent financial adviser and wanted to let people know about this charity who are providing young people with financial education. Other providers have Wiki pages, can't see the problem in this small noting. -Martyhobby (talk) 14:46, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Someone transferred this to Commons despite the fact that it's not in the public domain in Italy until 2014 and (IIRC) it was tagged as such. It's now (correctly) up for deletion there. Can the local version be restored please? -Iain99Balderdash and piffle 14:19, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

April Jeanette
An editor by the name of Anthony Appleyard deleted a page for AJ Lee. He first renamed it from 'AJ Lee (wrestler)" to 'April Jeanette' (so April Jeanette was the article's final name I think), before deleting it. He then created a new page called April Jeanette and made it a redirect. So right now the entire article is gone. The page was in the process of a requested name change before this delete happened. There was no reason for this article to be deleted and must have been some mistake. -Wrestling0101 (talk) 23:41, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
- The page itself was intended to be moved back to AJ Lee for precision purposes after an undiscussed move two some-odd weeks ago. Serious bit of mistepping afoot. Papacha (talk) 03:54, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- Done I have undeleted April Jeanette. (The move request went through twice due to a system hiccup. Sorry.) Anthony Appleyard (talk) 04:21, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
Eric Townsend
By my count this person has worked on around 40 CDS, DVDs, radio shows and other things. His co-worker Tom Gulotta has a page for working on many of the same things. There are many other articles for record producers and engineers all over wikipedia. Some well known, some not. Seems lik a random deletion. RockHoney — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockhoney (talk • contribs) 00:39, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
- Done. The article was deleted after a deletion discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eric Townsend, but due to low participation the closing administrator made it a WP:SOFTDELETE so, as with a WP:PROD, it has been restored on request. It may still be re-nominated: the main claim to fame presented in the present article is a list of people he has worked with, but Wikipedia:Notability is not inherited, what is needed is references about him that show "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." In regard to other articles, see WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. JohnCD (talk) 21:58, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Rad Rides by Troy
I believe this page is coverd by "An article about a company or a product which describes its subject from a neutral point of view does not qualify for this criterion" -67.53.14.222 (talk) 16:09, 3 August 2012 (UTC)

Additionally new references have come to light which can help validate the information of the article such as Frontier being featured in recent publications http://www.bearbiology.com/fileadmin/tpl/Downloads/IBN_Newsletters/IBN_Low_February_2012.pdf and being listed as a member of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (ICUN) http://iucn.org/about/union/members/who_members/members_database/ (National NGOs no.788) demonstrating its relevance on the subject matter. -217.39.138.113 (talk) 14:04, 7 August 2012 (UTC)

I do not understand the reasoning for the the deletion of this page. When reading through your guidelines of why this page was getting deleted in the first place, the reasoning stated that it was a page for an individual person... there are plenty of other pages on the wikipedia database that are dedicated to a single person, how is this one violating the policies of wikipedia? -Markusmcdonald (talk) 19:21, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
- 1) It was written by you. 2) It was nominated for deletion as shamelessly and unsalvageably promotional (and with good reason). 3) YOU blanked the page. 4) Since you (the sole author of the article) blanked the page, the blank page was deleted. --Orange Mike | Talk 12:27, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

NFD
The band NFD is referenced within the article about Fields of the Nephilim, a famous British goth rock band. It also includes some former members of that band and helped to spawn another popular goth band The Eden House. In that way it is an essential part of the Goth Rock scene. -Markandre13 (talk) 10:16, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

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.

- The material is not all there, but that section does discuss the character. But all of this are editorial decisions and you can reverse them yourself. Please see my talk page, though, for some alternatives--including the one I think best, which would be a separate article on the short story. DGG ( talk ) 02:44, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Deception Island, Fiction
I can provide references for three independent reviews of this book. As the page was previously deleted for lack of reviews/notability I would like to have the page restored so I can add the references (which I believe constitute notability... please correct me if I'm wrong). I considered contacting the admin who deleted the page, but I think he is listed as semi-retired so I wasn't confident that I would get a response that way. -Tombriggs (talk) 20:36, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
- Not done - As announced at the top of the page, this process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially and has no applicability to articles deleted after any deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Deception Island, Fiction, it cannot be undeleted through this process. Nevertheless, if you believe that the consensus found at the discussion was in error, or that significant new information has come to light since the deletion, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Ron Ritzman (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. Since Ron Ritzman is not available then the next step would be to go to WP:DRV GB fan 23:51, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi this page is set up no different than V8 Supercar teams - this Team is the most known of all Drag Racing Teams in Australia and competes in the Fastest Catergory Top Fuel - Also the team Owner & driver is a 3x National Champion which was referenced to the Official Sporting Body ANDRA

Black Women in Europe Blog
deleted as a result of an Expired PROD -83.145.25.80 (talk) 13:12, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
- Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Cordless Larry (talk), who proposed it, and who may choose to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days to which you could contribute. What the article needs, to establish Wikipedia:Notability, is references that show "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." There are many links, but some are to the blog itself, some are the blogger herself talking about it, some do not mention it, some are dead. JohnCD (talk) 22:20, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Dingoes in Tiaras
It was about a legitimate band that although it is widely unknown, has contributed to the underground scene of Death Metal in Mexico City. Dingoes in Tiaras needs to be recognised by the general community, as other musicians already are. -Bobsmith1000001 (talk) 05:45, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
Although dingoes in tiaras are a widely unknown band they are extremely popular in parts of mexico and their music has influenced a whole underground scene in mexico as well as this they have done quite well with their latest single Silly Billy ate my Willy. -220.239.137.58 (talk) 06:46, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Aminur Rahman,Khosru
Aminur Rahman,Khosru. The deletion type was PROD.The reasons why the article should be Undeleted:
a)As per Wikipedia rules the name of Military Persons can be saved If a person have received the highest Military Award or if a person have taken part in an operation and lead the operation: Its clause no 5. The article is written on Aminur Rahman, Khosru who was the youngest commander of Operation jackpot in Mongla on 15th August 1971 in Bangladesh Liberation war.In that operation he lead the operation and the naval commandoes destroyed 6 Foreign Ocean going ship in that operation under his command. This particular military operation comes under the wikipedia regulation of Military persons whos Biography could be saved in Wikipedia. Beside this the Biography has references and sources and these references are included in that Biography which could very well be checked by editors. Due to the above mentioned reason I would request not to delet the article. Regards, --Frankfurt55 (talk) 00:09, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

same as V8 super car team pages as duplicated same style content as Brad Jones Racing -AusTopFuel (talk) 06:24, 12 August 2012 (UTC)
- Not done The page Darren Morgan Racing looked too much like an advertisement. If you can rewrite this without trying to make the team sound great you can attempt to do so, but there is almost nothing in the deleted page suitable for an encyclopedia. Brad Jones Racing has a suitable stye to follow, so you can use this as an example. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:03, 12 August 2012 (UTC)

First off, I would like to thank you for adding me to this amazing site. I learn more in ten mins, then I do searching the day away on the internet. It's been a priveledge to be a part of it. I understand that pornstar "acressses" may only be added after winning a major award, and may only be kept for 4 years. Instead of searching one day, on your site, to find me coldly deleted, even when I suspect it's coming this year, I do not wish to cry, blame, or simply pout. It took me 4 years, nominated every year by every comoany,without the proper means of monetary adverting to back, to win what I got. That was the year, After signing for free,to a company owner that as a favor, I moved to vegas Three hours before the AVN awards ceremony that night, and here comes 'MURPHY- to award me as winner.

I would appreciate an explanation as to why these pages were deleted.
I would also like an explanation as to how I my get my pages published on Wikipedia...
Thank you,
Dr. Marco Bitetto
- None of your pages have been deleted. Instead the page was moved to User:Drmarcobitetto. This is your own user page, and is a more suitable place to write about yourself. Autobiographies are discouraged as Wikipedia articles. Articles on Wikipedia should be based on published writings, rather on what the writer knows. What you know about this special topic is called original research|. If there are multiple published sources it shows notability. But for your page about yourself there are no published sources.
- To get pages to appear here you can read WP:your first article. Pick a topic that you can find published reliable writings on, and then describe the information that you find there. Not done as page exists. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:17, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
