Ten Years

On 2015 Jan 1, I joined the Wikipedia Ten Year Society.
Will I make it for another ten?

Hi RHa ! I noticed you deleted my page. I was just going to delete it myself but saw no provision for that. Maybe because it was already done or because the originator of the article cannot do that ?

I like that you guys read new articles and delete them if need be. If I ever need to delete one again and cannot get it done I will ask you ! Patent nonsense is a fun way to put it ! I will tell this genius mathematician who told me last year that this number is the weirdest one he has ever seen... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C824767 C824767 (talk) 15:12, 19 March 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of Delta Airlines Flight 1086

You deleted this article with reason A7. I fail to understand how this criterion applied. I recognize that there is room for debate about the notability of the incident, but it seems to me that you have significantly misused the speedy deletion criterion: Nominally, the article is about a particular scheduled commercial airline flight, making it an "organized event"; however, the fact that the airplane operating the flight crashed on landing, clearly described in the article, is a more-than-sufficient "claim of notability" to exempt it from speedy deletion under this criterion. — CarLuva (talk) 12:13, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

I made some major improvements to this article, and I do believe the subject accident definitely meets the standard for notability. Since you were the original AfD proposer, I'd appreciate if you could take a look at the article now and perhaps reconsider your position on nominating it for AfD. — Darkest Tree Talk 01:42, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

  • It is always a bit depressing when you start an AfD discussion and nobody joins in. In this case the opposite has happened so my withdrawing the nomination would make little difference. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:53, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Deletion Help

Hi, I had noticed that some time ago you had deleted a page I'd put up ' Russ Appleby'. I wondered if there was any tips you could give me to rewrite it which would make it more Wiki friendly if possible. Maybe including some tv work, international work or more photos or links to other articles relating to things. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Russpie — Preceding unsigned comment added by Russpie (talk • contribs) 12:44, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

You delete a lot. If you and I find articles that should be deleted, we should do it. As far as personal pages being deleted, that could make people mad unnecessarily. — Wowee Zowee public (talk) 15:48, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Gray Matters Capital Foundation

I work for Gray Matters Capital Foundation and this page was wrongly deleted. We are a non-profit, so we were not advertising. We own the website, so there is no copyright infringement. Please advise the steps that need to be taken to activate this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jen404 (talk • contribs) 16:05, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Ceschi

Why did you delete the Ceschi page? He has plenty of coverage: Village Voice, AllMusic, Exclaim, Boston Phoenix, etc. Pretty sure these were referenced in the article too. -- Forty.4 (talk) 17:23, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

Forty.4, have you even bothered to read the info presented on Ceschi? Hint: it's impossible to miss and even in RED. I'm smelling a WP:COI, to be honest. — The Dissident Aggressor 00:37, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Where? Here? Or here? Where is it? You are not linking me to it. Where is the discussion around Ceschi's notability in the year 2015? All I see is a discussion that took place eight years ago. He has become a good deal more notable since then, releasing his most widely reviewed album and founding Fake Four. Non-notability is not a permanent affliction. And you have absolutely no basis for suspecting a COI, get a hold of yourself. -- Forty.4 (talk) 02:50, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Weren't the above sources referenced in the article? -- Forty.4 (talk) 01:42, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Okay. One of his albums (the one released after the 2007 AfD) has its own article, which was certainly linked from the Ceschi article, and the sources were all there (bar the Village Voice one, plus the Tiny Mix Tapes one). I think there was enough evidence of notability here for you to have not salted the page based on an AfD from eight years ago. - Forty.4 (talk) 01:12, 13 March 2015 (UTC)

Sarah Gertrude Shapiro

hi. I am new to wikipedia. I love this site and tried very hard to make sure my first article was factually correct, well sourced, and on a topic that has not been previously covered. I chose Sarah Gertrude Shapiro. She is a television show creator, musician and director of note who is referenced on several pages but does not have her own page, so it seemed appropriate to create. I had gathered 15 references and was careful to be accurate, but for some reason you deleted it. My formatting was still in progress as this is a little confusing at first. If you could please explain what was wrong with my article I will gladly fix the issues so that I can learn how to be a helpful to wikipedia, which has helped me so much. Thank you, Dinosuarus (talk) 07:50, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

Deep Kapuria

Hello. We had previously created a page for a CEO with whom we are working. The page was supposedly deleted owing to G12: Unambiguous copyright infringement. But we believe we gave necessary sources to support our content, especially the link mentioned. We wish to create a new page for the same person, and have rewritten the content. Frankly, we are a bit lost on where we are infringing. Request you to please help us on how to avoid the mistakes in particular if any. — 103.227.69.154 (talk) 13:40, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

ZzzQuil is an existing trade name for diphenhydramine. I see no reason to delete the former as a redirect to the latter. Kindly restore it. — DS (talk) 14:10, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

File:GerardLopez.png

Why was this picture deleted for being a copy violation? I credited the website that gave the photo from. They released the photo for free on one of their web pages. Anyone can view the webpage. I even have the website that the image came from: [1] Please take this into consideration. — FordDixon (talk) 14:53, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

  • The person who applied the speedy deletion tag did so with this edit summary: "nothing from the source states this image is available under Creative Commons". End of story. And why did you scale it down? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:22, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

I scaled it down because it was simply too big. I didn't want the image to be so big on the article, as the dimensions are 1600x900, which is much too big to be usable. Do you know who tagged the image for deletion? I'd like to have a word with them. — FordDixon (talk) 14:23, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Rfd: Eginyn

Re: Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2015 March 5#Eginyn: I think that you interpreted a comment from the nominator incorrectly in this discussion. You closed this as "delete per nominator" but another editor struck a comment by Some Gadget Geek which seems to have made it appear that they favoured deletion when they do not. I am in favour of deletion myself and the discussion was clearly going that way, but since the nominator seems to still be looking for a way to keep the redirect I think it will save future headache if the deletion is for a policy- or consensus-supported reason rather than "per nominator". Thanks. Ivanvector (talk) 17:27, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

  • I don't know what you think the nominator said but I read "inter-language soft redirects are not generally considered useful" which, I hope you will agree is well-established policy. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 22:01, 11 March 2015 (UTC)

My goodness, I seem to have confused nominator with creator. Apologies, of course you're right, and thanks for taking a look anyway. I shall consume greater quantities of caffeine before reviewing long deletion threads again. — Ivanvector (talk) 14:01, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of Article

Fair use, in my draft of the Stentorians, which you deleted, I made reference to materials which you cited as infringing on copyright. However, on that site, it clearly states that the material is sourced elsewhere and "You are free to use this material in any constructive way. There should be no charge for the use of this material or any profit made from the use of it. For the most part it was freely given and should be passed along the same way. If you have material to add, or changes that should be made, please contact me."

The sections you deleted the draft for sets the foundation, the history, that presaged the creation of this fraternal organization. without it, the story lacks background, and as historical material, cannot be refuted as heresay. My sources were Lafire, aaffmuseum timeline and the paper researched by Joe Shalmoni. In creating the draft I find that I cannot make the references link correctly and while the citations were listed but not referenced, they were there for perusal.

While Changes were being made, you did not join the discussion, but rather deleted the entry. Can you please explain how you came to this decision on a draft in progress? — CaptJayRuffins (talk) 15:01, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

Thank you!

Thank you for correcting the error I made when trying to archive my talk page. I appreciate it! Safehaven86 (talk) 19:27, 12 March 2015 (UTC)

AfD cleanup

Hi. You recently deleted Kingdom Hall (disambiguation). Can you also close (or just delete) the AfD discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Kingdom Hall (disambiguation)? I raised the AfD before considering that the page could just be speedy-deleted. Thanks. -- Jeffro77 (talk) 13:17, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

I wasn't sure if I should. WP:NACD says "In general, administrators are responsible for closing deletion discussions." I've never closed an AfD before, so if I've done it incorrectly... oh well.--Jeffro77 (talk) 23:09, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Washington High School

The page titled Washington High School (East Chicago, Indiana) is not a hoax. The high school merged with E.C. Roosevelt to become E. C. Central in 1987. What would lead you to believe that it was a so-called 'blatant hoax' ??? My friends and I attended that school, as did ....

...and thousands of others that do not (yet) have a Wiki article about them. Please un-delete it. Sincerely, Jess (talk) 14:32, 14 March 2015 (UTC) ECW Class of 1980

  • You could have added Ray Ragelis and Pete Trgovich to your list. So if it merged in 1987, why is its soccer team still playing as Washington in 2013? The words "East Chicago Cardinals" are visible in massive letters in Google's satellite view of their gridiron. To further the confusion, the E. C. Central article calls the previous schools Roosevelt Rough Riders and Washington Senators - though that is probably confusing the names of their sports teams with the official school names. I have been criticised before for giving wrong deletion reasons. In this case the real reason was: hopelessly stubby. Restored to User:Jguad1/sandbox. Probably worthy of its own article rather than creating as a redirect to the E. C. Central article. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:13, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

BGMEA

You have deleted a Wiki page titled BGMEA. The page contains an important organization which is a trade body that is related to the ready made garment industry of Bangladesh which is the second largest apparel exporting country in the world. Besides, the article contains no promotional stuff; rather it has some important information for those who are interested in the garment industry of Bangladesh and BGMEA. BGMEA is the member of the International Apparel Federation (IAF). I hope you understand the importance. So please restore the article. — Nirnasim (talk) 06:39, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

  • I hope you understand the importance that: a) Wikipedia articles should be written by people with no COI and b) must provide evidence of notability. The best I can offer is that you should follow this advice and find an established Wikipedian willing to write about your organisation. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:47, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Dear RHaworth, thanks for your advice. However, you did not mention what is wrong (please suggest if any) with my writing the article on BGMEA. If my first article is accepted and published in Wikipedia, then I will be encouraged to contribute more to Wikipedia. I hope you would consider. — Nirnasim (talk) 05:57, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

  • I have already told you that Wikipedia articles must provide evidence of notability and yours did not. "Let me have this one and I will become a good contributor" - I've never heard that argument before. But it cuts no ice with me - I just turn it on its head and say: establish a good record of edits with no hint of COI and about notable subjects - then I may consider approving your creation of BGMEA. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:56, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Deleting HJMS

The article deleted was a request from the author himself of the website in the "copyright infringment" he himself preferred to have the same text in some paragraphs and I commented that "the ok was given unofficially and I will personally contact him for official approval" have him send a permission granting email (OTRS). What is frustrating are the hours of work with the formatting and markup going back and forth to the author himself for approval just to scrap all of it — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kanoog (talk • contribs) 14:48, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

  • I deleted HJMS for lack of notability, though now you point it out there was copyvio also. But what a terrible admission of COI - the whole point of a Wikipedia article is that we do not need any approval from the subject of the article. Real editors take a pride in their independence. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:56, 15 March 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of PileInspect

The article is proposed to be deleted due to 'no evidence of notability'. To provide the evidence of notability, I added two sources relating to this article:

  • "Description of Work of the PileInspect project - Integrity Testing of Deep Foundation Piles", Grant agreement no: 605676, FP7-SME-2013
  • "Ensayos de integridad de pilotes en cimentaciones profundas (PILEINSPECT)", 13th National Conference on NDT (Spain) , Sevilla, 6-8 May 2015

The PileInspect system is now being developed and cited in publications from journals and conference proceedings in the field of Nondestructive technologies (NDT). One paper (full manuscript) was accepted last week and to be presented in 13th National Conference on NDT (Spain) which will take place in Sevilla in 6th to 8th May 2015. The paper is in Spanish: Ensayos de integridad de pilotes en cimentaciones profundas (PILEINSPECT). I added this reference in the page to be used as proof of notability. The other publications are in submission and review. The abstracts of two papers as below have been accepted and to be presented in NDT-CE 2015 (Sept 15-17, http://www.ndt-ce2015.net/) -in Berlin, Germany :

  • “Old ideas to improve pile integrity testing revisited and optimized“
  • “Defect Detection in Concrete Pile Using Impulse Response Measurements with Sine Sweep Excitations”

I will keep this page updated on any progress of the development of PileInspect system and publications relating to this topic. Please can you advise on what I can further provide and modify to improve the article? Thank you! Zhenghaitao (talk) 16:25, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Ivo G. Gut

Dear Mr Haworth, My article Draft: Ivo G. Gut, has been deleted by you due to Copyright Conflict but there was no conflict there. Can you please let me know what is wrong with it. Thank you, anna — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anna bpages (talk • contribs) 16:41, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

  • The amount of wording copied was probably enough to qualify for deletion as copyvio but, more importantly, there was a total lack of evidence of notability. Kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no COI thinks the guy is notable and writes about him here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:05, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Was Maleficent simply missed?

You got the talk page deleted but missed the main page. Just an oops? Fyunck(click) (talk) 05:53, 17 March 2015 (UTC)

  • Definitely a temporary brianstorm: I have firm policy on db-move requests: if I agree the move, then I will do it so that the requested deletion is just a side-effect of the move. Otherwise I leave the page alone. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:56, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Deletion of Eliacom ESP page

Hi RHaworth,

I am a little confused as to why you deleted the page Eliacom ESP (Enhanced SQL Portal) for advertising while I was discussing the issue with Trivialist. There was no advertising or effusive language on the page. It was purely informative. If you compare the page to phpMyAdmin, or heidiSQL (which are exactly the same type of topic) there is absolutely no difference. In fact, when fashioning the page, I used those as templates to guide me, as those are clearly acceptable. Therefore, it doesn't deserve deletion by merit of Unambiguous advertising or promotion, or else those pages should be deleted as well. If you can show me a difference between those pages and the ESP page, I will gladly remedy it.

If the argument is about notoriety, then that is a more complicated discussion. I was in the process of discussing this with Trivialist, when you deleted the page. I think that's somewhat bad form.

Best.
