Hi I recently had a page deleted, and was wondering if I provided proof that the model has a large fan base and made unique contributions to their field of entertainment would that be enough notability to keep the page up? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cjaxel (talk • contribs)

Hi there,
I am Charles Bird, Marketing Director for RugGear, a rugged device brand. I am trying to create a company page. I'd like to know why it was deleted before with the G11 reason?
We are not trying to promote, just to show the history and some of the key products in the timeline. How is that considered promotion? Please let me know how to proeceed.
Thanks,
Charles
Hi Acroterion,
You're right, I looked again and didn't believe my eyes, I thought the person I asked to do it knew the tone of Wikipedia. Sorry for this. I will personally rewrite all from scratch.

Ok got it, when you say "declare any conflicts of interest", does that apply to an internal employee of the company, and second, how is that appropriately declared as that info is not in that article you mentioned. Thx.
Does this look like our old friend user:Realitytvshow? -Ad Orientem (talk) 18:13, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
The articles got deleted before I had a chance to check. This user has been warned and blocked before for adding copyrighted material, do you know the origin of the source code he was including? I can't see the revision history etc. of the deleted articles but Adding two numbers in C had some kind of note in the edit summary about the author of the code. This seems like a persistent problem user. He is also painfully ESL so I am going to look at his contributions for grammar problems. —DIYeditor (talk) 16:51, 15 July 2017 (UTC)
Hello Acroterion. I'm asking it here because you have participated to change the visibility of some vandalism. It may be a bit early because the vandalism is still ongoing, but I seem to remember that it's possible to delete history entries (the history is now rather useless after so many edits/reverts), but I forgot where to ask for this or if revdeleters can also do it... and my searches fail to find the docs about it. If you can, that would be most useful. Thank you, —PaleoNeonate - 02:40, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
Hey I noticed you deleted the Wube Software page, could you then fix the link here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_best-selling_PC_games so the list doesn't have an odd one out? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 163.158.214.31 (talk) 20:21, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Acroterion! Not sure how to proceed with this. Can you check out this edit that moved Suicide of Vince Foster to Death of Vince Foster? This change appears to have been implemented based upon the claims of Miguel Rodriguez whose views don't get any substantial coverage in reliable source.

Howdy! Was wondering if you wish to, as an expert on the NHS stuff, merge the Rising Sun (Montana) stuff into the Rising Sun Auto Camp article, dumping the advertisement spiel from former in the process?

Nikunj3121994 has created a copyvio page again (CdmHUB). Was previously blocked for copyvio and has made a number of bad edits since last mention. Does not seem to be reading/responding/reacting to any warning on his talk page or any edit summaries correcting his mistakes. There seems to be no way to interact with this user. —DIYeditor (talk) 17:33, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
Actually to be fair I think he got the copyvio material from Composite material. However he has been copying material between articles without attribution which is another kind of copyright violation... —DIYeditor (talk) 17:45, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Can you semi-protect I Want to Know What Love Is to persistent long-term abuse of Hanoi Vandal. 183.171.181.75 (talk) 03:16, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
Dear Acroterion,
Kingd97 here. I understand that you have deleted the Easyship Wikipedia page due to Criteria A7, but it is extremely important you could reverse the deletion as this Wikipedia page possesses no threat but credible information. With all due respect, many other company companies and brands have made a Wikipedia Page for their companies, including Shippo, Shyp, Google, Apple Inc., and many more. Therefore, what makes the Easyship page different from every other company page that are on Wikipedia? Thank you.
Cheers, Kingd97 (talk) 01:58, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
Understood. But so many other companies such as Shyp and Shippo have a company page... what about them? What is the difference between their company page and the company page that I am trying to create for Easyship? (P.S., I don't mean to disrespect you) Kingd97 (talk) 03:15, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
Alright. I understand. So just for my satisfaction, is there any way I can create a Wikipedia page for Easyship without it being deleted?Kingd97 (talk) 10:12, 9 August 2017 (UTC)
So basically you mean cite all things necessary? Kingd97 (talk) 02:48, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
I will no longer try to bring up the defecation incident on the talk page, but for the record, vandalism by others should have no bearing on whether something is included on Wikipedia. If something should be included per Wikipedia policy, then it should be included in a non-vandalistic way even if some people have tried to include the information in a way that violates Wikipedia policy.

hey man you recently deltelted my page Omri Dayan, and i was wonderign if you could reverse that i was not quite done — Preceding unsigned comment added by Javabula (talk • contribs) 01:38, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
his page should be undelteled for several reasons. First of which is that I was not finished writing I just reached a good stopping point saved it with thought to continue the next day but it was deleted very very quickly. The information I was going to add included some of his past work, why he is important and some of his family history. In addition to that, I have found out today that he is creating a car show(like a meet) which just adds more reason. If possible I would really appreciate this page being restored... An editor has asked for a deletion review of Omri Dayan. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Javabula (talk) 02:14, 10 August 2017 (UTC)
Yea look at his drivetribe account... he has several thousand followers and if you would just undo it so I can finish it then re-review it? Javabula (talk) 04:27, 11 August 2017 (UTC)
hey man i read over the guidlines again and realize you are right, maybe in the futer but for now no need for a page, thanks for the help

Hello, I'm curious about the deletion of my page based on a YouTube channel. It was not a promotion of the channel, and it was not poorly written (at least, in my opinion). Are there any suggestions you can give me that would make this page appropriate for Wikipedia? Is it a lost cause? Cheers. Reidsome (talk) 04:02, 19 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi, Acroterion. Can take a look at the edit history of the Jack Ruby article? I'm not sure if it is the L/K/T IP, but two IPs struck back-to-back and seem to be tag-teaming in a few of the same articles, including Lincoln assassination. @Sundayclose: -Location (talk) 22:15, 12 September 2017 (UTC) <outdent> Both IPs blocked, thanks for the note. Acroterion (talk) 03:54, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
Hi Acroterion, thanks again for your encouragement on the WTC collapse article. I've now gotten the existing material moved around and trimmed the way I think it should basically be, and I'm getting ready to comb through it with the Good Article guidelines in mind. There is one last bit of content, however, that I think needs to be added. Like the Moon landing and JFK assassination articles, the collapse of the WTC has an associated "conspiracy theory" article that it seems weird not to link to. In the other two cases, the problem is solved simply by having a small summary of the CT article. This is of course the whole crux of past controversies, so I want to be careful about introducing it. But its absence here is actually more glaring than its presence would be, and with the article now otherwise completely "mainstream" there seems to be no issue of weight or balance. I'm hoping to get your agreement about how to do this before I proceed. Without your support, I think any effort in that direction would be futile. What do you think? --Thomas B (talk) 06:25, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
I would be interested to see an RfC on my proposal , mainly seeking comment from people who have not been directly involved. I don't think it will be taken seriously if I propose it. But if it's something you think would be useful, people might take the time to consider the matter carefully. I really do think those who are defending Wikipedia from conspiracy theories have lost sight of the ball and are now going only after the man. The result is that the article is not nearly as good as it could be.--Thomas B (talk) 09:55, 6 September 2017 (UTC)
Like I said, I did not come back to engage in these controversies. You seemed to understand and appreciate the edits I had made so far. I just wanted to let you know that I'm not going to engage with MONGO on this. It is pointless. If you can open his mind, great. Otherwise I'm going back into retirement. Except for the value it would have to the article, it's not worth any trouble.--Thomas B (talk) 13:01, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
I recently received a message from you about COI on the Klein Tools talk page. I am the copyright holder of those images that I wanted posted but do not have a high enough status to update the wiki page. Recently the wiki page could only be edited by credible users and I work for Klein and am just trying to update the wiki page with new photos and the new logo that we have. Every photo has been accepted by wiki commons. Please let me know how I can unlock the Klein Tools wiki page and update it with the new photos.

Hi,
I was prompted to create an account and send you a message by your Andy Summers / Police slide scans.
I am independently making a documentary about the Police and would like to ask if you have any more sequential shots from this show (or any others) which you took - and if you would consider allowing me to use them in my draft of the film? I can show you some cuts, examples of how I have used other photo sequences etc
No work from photographers will be used in a final production for even possible distribution without agreement by the photographer of course.
Message me here with best way to contact you - I am unsure about leaving my email address here as I do not know if this message is publicly viewable or not...
Thanks for your time,

Hi, I just noticed my talk page. I did not even know I had one. I see several mentionings where I have been editing articles. To my knowledge I have never edited a wiki article, nor has anyone else whom shares my IP address. I dunno if someone is hacking my account or...what? I dunno. I did not even know I had a talk page until now. Love Wikipedia & do not want to see it damaged. Therefore I request you to please block my IP address from editing articles in the future. I do not see myself becoming an editor now or in the future. Thank you. 107.77.173.10 (talk) 21:22, 27 August 2017 (UTC)Josh

Hello,
you deleted the page I have created on "Warwick Congress".
This page should not be speedily deleted because it provides important information for the students of the University of Warwick and other UK/European universities. Warwick Congress is a startup conference that was founded in 2016 and has been very successful on the campus of Warwick Uni. It would be a shame for the students of the university of Warwick and other universities to delete this page, which provides a quick and easy overview over one of the biggest conferences on Campus.
According to A7 of Criteria for speedy deletion "with the exception of educational institutions." this article should clearly not be deleted as it directly linked to the University of Warwick, which indeed is an "educational institution" and Warwick Congress is an academic conference at Warwick University.
This article is still a work in progress and I will link external sources to show the media acclaim to this academic conference in due course.

On Wikipedia, vandalism has a very specific meaning: editing (or other behavior) deliberately intended to obstruct or defeat the project's purpose, which is to create a free encyclopedia, in a variety of languages, presenting the sum of all human knowledge.
Acroterian, On the WikiMedia Commons web site I viewed a photo of yours with the file name, File:Hager House.jpg. I would like permission to use this photo in the 3rd edition of a book I am writing on historic preservation. Your photo would be a wonderful example of vernacular (folk) architecture. Of course, attribution will be given as you designate if permission is granted.
Information describing the 2nd edition of our book can be found at our web site at: [1].
Thank you in advance for your consideration. Please let me know if you have questions or comments. I would appreciate a response via my email, since I do not check the Wiki Talk Page regularly.

Hi, Acroterion! Frank Nugan currently redirects to Francis John Nugan and Michael Hand currently redirects to Michael Jon Hand. Both are known in conjunction with the Nugan Hand Bank scandal which has a CIA conspiracy theory attached to it. As the vast majority of reliable sources use the common names "Frank Nugan" and "Michael Hand", I am wondering if you are willing to reverse the redirects that were put in place by a pro-conspiracy editor here and here. If you prefer that I take it through the regular channels, just let me know. Thanks! -Location (talk) 00:09, 26 September 2017 (UTC)
