MINOS (optimization software)
Hi, I'm requesting an un-delete of the page for the software package MINOS (optimization software). While the package itself has not changed much in recent years, it is still heavily used and cited. It is also supported in a number of optimization related packages, including but not limited to, AIMMS, AMPL, and GAMS. It is also one of the first (if not, the first) general-purpose optimization software package to come out. In addition, this software package and its author received the inaugural Beale-Orchard-Hayes prize, awarded by the Mathematical Optimization Society. I would be happy to update the page, if necessary. -75.80.52.214 (talk) 01:29, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
- Done Let me know if you need help with formatting references and what-not. Protonk (talk) 01:46, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
- As nominator of the article for deletion, what's necessary is finding and adding independent references that discuss the software in depth. Stuartyeates (talk) 02:46, 23 September 2014 (UTC)
- Hi guys, thank you for undeleting the page. I made an effort at updating the page with a high-level description of the software and added references to sources indicating the importance and continued use of the software, as well as links to the documentation and papers related to the software. The page has been given a third-party tag, and I just wanted to ask what else would be required? I've sort of been looking at pages of the other optimization software packages (e.g., KNITRO, IPOPT) as a guideline, but that may not be the best idea. I can try to find scholarly works that reference the software and describe its use in some application, if that helps. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Gnowzil (talk) 18:52, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Gnowzil: Here's my immediate suggestion. Draw the page down to the absolute minimum first. What the software is, where it was designed and why it's interesting (e.g. the award). Source that material to reliable sources--the journal articles (namely "Large-scale linearly constrained optimization") work well for this. this may also be helpful as is this if you can find a copy. That gives us a pithy, verifiable summary of the subject. It's not complete or comprehensive but it's a good starting point. Once you have that, you can expand individual elements as you like. A good wikipedia article may not have all the detail on the operation of the software (or it may, it often depends on the sourcing), what we should shoot for is a clear summary for a general reader who wants to know about MINOS. The further reading and external links sections can be used to provide pointers to more detailed resources. Does that help? Protonk (talk) 19:01, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Protonk: Thanks Protonk. The article is admittedly terse at the moment, but I think it provides at least a summary of MINOS, which can be expanded on. The article currently starts with a general description of what the software is meant for, citing the user guide for the software as a ref. Then goes into the when/where it was developed, and mentions the prize it was awarded (with a cite to the awarding society's page) and then cites a few sources that discuss the current status/use of the software in modeling systems. The rest of the article gives specifics on implementation and method and cites one of the two refs you provided. I've left the two papers in the Further Reading section, as they are very technical papers describing the method used in MINOS and its implementation. I understand the need for verifiable and neutral sources, but it's odd to me that there needs to be references to third-party sources to describe the software, when it seems that the best and most accurate sources would be the papers and user's guides for the software. If it was a matter of software performance, then yes I definitely agree that third-party references are necessary. Gnowzil (talk) 22:53, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Gnowzil: the need for sourcing isn't unique to software, it covers any article on wikipedia. The expectation is not zero "primary" sources but that many of the references on the page be to independent actors. What it allows us to do is write articles any critical reader can verify without relying too much on one particular viewpoint--in many cases we don't want to write an article on a web site or an actor using their own (potentially promotional) material. This seems like less of a problem with software, especially older software developed by academics, but it's a good rule to follow. Like I said, using documentation and the like is fine (also the papers written by the authors of the software are considered third party if they've been printed in a peer reviewed journal), but we don't want the majority of the article to rely on them. Protonk (talk) 23:01, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Protonk: Thanks for your response and your patience in explaining the wiki viewpoint. I agree with you and will try to improve/expand the article to include more references in my spare time. In this case, I thought incorrectly that "third-party sources" meant sources that do not include those involved in the software. It seems that a few of the pages for other optimization software packages would need improving/expanding as well based on this conversation. Thanks again.

Besides the high jacking, much of that information was useful, could I get a copy please [ Ray-Rays 17:46, 24 September 2014 (UTC) Contact ]
- The talk page is not deleted. Are you asking about the user page? Protonk (talk) 17:48, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- They're referring to the user page, which I deleted. And won't ever restore: Freedom Gamers is a Steam Community Group created on the 3rd of June, 2010, by the infamous Max Norton, known as by his community of 12 year old children as Wolfman. The initial Freedom Gamers Garry's Mod server consisted solely of the prepubescent-filled game-mode known as Jailbreak And it gets worse after that. So much so that I can't even paste it here. §FreeRangeFrogcroak 18:25, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- Yeah, wanted to say thank you for deleting that, I just need a copy of the base information. I don't see why your gotta be a fool about this matter. As they say, give a small man power, and watch him abuse it. That describes you Frog. I also like to point out you ignored 2-0 against deleting the page vote in chat, and counting me and you that makes 3-1, but that doesn't matter to you because you abuse your power.[ Ray-Rays 23:27, 24 September 2014 (UTC) Contact ]
- If you need a copy, get it from FGWolfman, who originally created the page. Wikipedia is not a web host for such stuff, and using Wikipedia for that purpose runs the risk of losing the content. It doesn't matter who 'voted', the fact is that the page violated Wikipedia content policies and had to go. FreeRangeFrog was entirely correct in deleting it, and it should have been done sooner. ~Amatulić (talk) 23:36, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

The Night Runners · ( talk | logs | links | watch | afd ) · [revisions]
The Night Runners page was placed in "Speedy Deletion" for no reason. Please reinstate this submission. The article was re-written, updated with new credible sources (MTV, All Music, IMDB, & more) honoring Wikipedia Guidelines. The band are public figures and i have clearly demonstrated that with multiple sources. I kindly request for that article submission to be "undeleted" and reapplied for Wikipedia induction. Thank you. --Takemenow24 (talk) 01:36, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- Not done @Takemenow24, Callanecc, C.Fred: Hello. I take it you are the same person who has the accounts Mason8252, Iampixiedust, etc., and who created multiple other accounts to !vote in the articles for deletion discussion that were confirmed as sockpuppets. Anyway, no, there was no recreated page with new and better referencing. The article at the time it was deleted on September 4, 2014, and the time you recreated it on September 23, was word-for-word identical except for the addition of one citation to this Allmusic page (all other cites, includes iMDb and MTV were the same), and that Allmusic page provides no new basis to notability (it is not substantive treatment of the topic at all). The page was thus speedy deleted (under CSD G4) as a substantial recreation of the topic that had already been considered on the merits at articles for deletion. This band can have an article here once they achieve sufficient notoriety to be the subject of substantial write-up in reliable, secondary sources. That just has not happened yet. If it does, we will welcome a neutrally written article. Until then, please find something else to do. There is no shortage of currently notable topics that don't have articles.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 12:30, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- I am a new user and your accusation of me being a "sock puppet" is false. The All Music page is a legit source referring from Rovi Corporation which is an affiliate of Billboard. In that source it clearly shows that the band are public figures/recording artists and have released their song "Single". This page is not "recreated word-for-word", if so please provide evidence of such a false accusation. For the record, please refrain from disrespectful threats such as "please find something else to do". --Takemenow24 (talk) 20:25, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- @Takemenow24: I just looked at the deleted versions ([1] and [2], visible only to admins), and they are practically identical. They also both mention the release of "Single", so its release (and the pending release of an EP in 2015) was known at the time of the AfD. Thus, the community decided that wasn't enough to establish notability then. They'll need to do something additional and/or get substantial coverage in reliable sources for an article to be created. —C.Fred (talk) 20:37, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- It's interesting that someone who denies being a sockpuppet account of the original (blocked) accounts involved in this article would re-create it verbatim. Takemenow24, you provided evidence yourself. ~Amatulić (talk) 21:11, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
- We have this thing called the duck test which seems to apply here--you're using here multiple points of the same language phrases as some of the accounts (all shown to be the same) used, such as "public figures", "credible sources", "kindly", after posting content of a deleted article (showing you are not some random new person but had access to the content before it was deleted). But, it really doesn't matter if you are the same person. It doesn't change the issue of whether we should have this content or whether its reposting met CSD G4. Please understand that being "public figures" is not an inclusion standard, and you have already been advised what would be needed for an article that would meet our core inclusion standards.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 22:35, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

- Not done - this page was deleted in accordance with criterion for speedy deletion A7. If you believe that this decision was made in error, or that significant new information has come to light since the deletion, please contact the administrator who carried out the deletion, user WilyD (talk · contribs). If you have already done so, your concerns can be taken to deletion review.
- Also, no one single user made the decision to delete. Someone proposed it, and an administrator agreed. The fact is, that being published is not a factor for notability, as far as Wikipedia is concerned. Notability in Wikipedia's context is defined as having significant coverage by multiple, reliable sources that are independent of the subject.

Enviorment
This could be a piece of information about earth's enviorment and how much greenhouse gases we are causing. -Wikipedian 2 (talk) 08:19, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
- Not done This is actually a misspelling of the word environment. We already have a fairly substantial article on the topic at Environment (biophysical) and you're welcome to help contribute to that article. I do want to caution you about using Wikipedia as a WP:SOAPBOX for environmental causes, as we need to make sure that we're neutral about this sort of thing- regardless of how good and just we think that the cause is. I'm not overly worried about this, but I feel that I have to say it since you did say something about writing about the amount of greenhouse gases that are being created.

europlus sialkot pvt ltd
Enter your reasoning here and then click the "Save page" button below -Qaseen (talk) 07:11, 30 September 2014 (UTC) sir i work in this company my boss said me to make the wikipedia page for our comapny so i create the page in wikipedia but why u are deleting this page sir please if ther is any problem with page please correct it but donot delete it
- The problem is that the page was fairly promotional in tone and the entire initial paragraph would have to be re-written in order to fit our neutrality guidelines. I'd say that a better way to phrase it would be "Euro Plus Sialkot (PVT) LTD is a manufacturer and exporter of military and sports equipment and clothing." That sums up everything in a nutshell and removes all of the promotional ad-speak, which again, isn't allowed on Wikipedia. You can elaborate somewhat from there, but avoid any WP:PEACOCK terms like "leading" and phrases like "would like to develop its presence on the world wide web to cater the business & business requirement of today's e-media world.Euro Plus, being a manufacturer and exporter wants to deliver quality products on global basis through skilled manpower, Best service & competitive prices." That's pretty much the biggest reason why the page was deleted as WP:G11. However that said, there are also some issues with coverage in reliable sources (WP:RS). Even if it is restored or re-created, you will need to show where the company has received coverage in independent and reliable sources like newspapers and the like. I do note that your company is not located in the United States and because of that, coverage may not necessarily be in English. As long as the coverage is in a place that would pass muster at WP:RS/N, it can be used to help show notability regardless of what language it is written in.

Galina Vale
Enter your reasoning here and then click the "Save page" button below -Novaguitarra (talk) 19:22, 28 September 2014 (UTC) Page for musical artist Galina Vale was created 5 years ago, and all these time nobody tried to delete it. Why suddenly someone decided to delete it that is the question.
- According to the logs, it was deleted because it was deemed to be 'Unambiguous advertising or promotion' Stuartyeates (talk) 19:52, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
- The article was quite short and was only giving some facts of biography and achievements of the artist. It was here for 5 years, "no" major changes was made to it.
- If someone could just improve it it would be much more helpful rather then just speedy delete it .
- I request to review deletion please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Novaguitarra (talk • contribs) 20:07, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
- Then the first thing you must do is contact the blocking administrator Jimfbleak. If Jimflbleak won't restore, it, then you can make your case at Wikipedia:Deletion review.
- However, I'd say don't waste your time. The most recent deletion was due not just to promotion, but because the article contained copyright infringing material. Copyright infringements are deleted on sight, regardless of the duration on Wikipedia, and cannot be restored. Your best bet is to have the deleting administrator email you a copy, which you should not repost. ~Amatulić (talk) 16:52, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
Thank you for looking at this issue. Yes, I have contacted jim, but has no answer. I think that the page was deleted because someone wanted to attack it, same time as the page was destroyed, also artist youtube channel was attacked. There was no copyright infringement on this page, page was standing here for 5 years, surely was checked by moderators many times over the years. No major changes was made, except it was only shortened. How to appeal against attack here in wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Novaguitarra (talk • contribs) 19:18, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Calling deletion an attack is pure rubbish. We have 30million+ pages and <700 active admins. We don't have time to patrol every article. Literally, nobody knows who Galina Vale is, so how could it be an "attack"? the panda ɛˢˡ” 10:49, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

It was deleted via CSD-A7 before i could respond to the tag. -Trinidade (talk) 06:30, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
- I'm a little concerned that the article is for a company that has yet to actually start operating. However, if @FreeRangeFrog: is OK with it, I have no problem transferring it to your userspace. The problem here is that if this company never gets off the ground (drum riff) and never opens, then all we have are a handful of news stories about a company that never launched (sorry with the puns, can't help it) and that wouldn't really be enough to pass WP:CORP. It's just a little WP:TOOSOON for a mainspace entry. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 09:38, 30 September 2014 (UTC)

- Not done Gladys1555 The page hasn't been deleted yet and since this is a speedy deletion, the best place to argue against this would be on the article's talk page. There are some other issues with the page- it's also tagged with an WP:A7, meaning that there is a concern over Barcella's notability. You can address this by providing coverage in reliable sources such as links to news stories about her and so on. I notice that you have said that she has been on various shows, but we need to see proof of this to show what type of appearances these are and how in-depth they were. Was she only briefly shown in a 1 second flicker over her artwork? Was she shown in-depth? I also note that the article is still written in a fairly casual tone, as if it was a fan page or was taken from her personal website. I don't know that it's still overly promotional in the "buy her stuff now, she's awesome" way, but the overly casual tone can negatively impact a page and still come across as a little promotional. Not only that, but if this was taken from a press release or personal website, you need to be careful to avoid WP:COPYVIO. Tokyogirl79 (。◕‿◕。) 07:37, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
Windows 9
The Windows 9 page was deleted because it was serving as a redirect that many thought confusing to many people. However, not only has there been a plethora of news articles and such concerning this topic, but Windows 9 is also set to be demoed tomorrow by Microsoft as a Technical preview. As such, this page could validly serve the Wikimedia community, not as a redirect, but as a full-fledged article detailing the deluge of information and news that will be coming over the next several weeks. Plus, it's bound to be confusing to type Windows 9 as an article search in to Wikipedia and not find it, considering that this has been kind of a hot topic on the Internet for several weeks now. -173.21.51.97 (talk) 15:35, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- Not done. The redirect was deleted as a consequence of Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2014 May 11#Windows 9. We don't restore pages by request if they were deleted as a result of discussions.
- However, feel free to write an article about Windows 9. The entire deleted contribution history of that page was never more than a few hundred bytes long, when it was a disambiguation page 2 years ago.
- It's high time Wikipedia had a full-fledged article on this subject. Go for it. ~Amatulić (talk) 17:03, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
Great. Thanks for the info; I don't have time right now to create a new article from scratch, but maybe if I make a stub, people will see the topic is open again, and it can start anew. Also, since the article was recreated once and deleted again as it had been proposed for deletion, maybe there should be a note of some kind that says there is permission from an admin to start the article again? So it doesn't get nominated for speedy deletion? Thanks in advance. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.21.51.97 (talk) 17:27, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
- You can always flesh out a draft article (just create Draft:Windows 9, or if you don't have an account, use Wikipedia:Articles for creation) and it won't be deleted. It's the main space articles that get closer scrutiny. ~Amatulić (talk) 23:50, 29 September 2014 (UTC)
