Deletion review for Koi... Mil Gaya 3

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Koi... Mil Gaya 3. 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. Gotitbro (talk) 15:37, 11 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Redirects

Dear Explicit, there are three redirects, like Saint Gregory the Illuminator Cathedral, Antelias, Armenian Diocese of Iraq, and Armenian Prelacy of Lebanon, which are definately not correct. It is obvious, that the main cathedral should not redirect to the pontifical see, when we have two different artilces in data ([1] and [2]). Armenian Diocese of Iraq, as the other Dioceses mentioned here, should have a separate article, as the one existing in data ([3]). Armenian Prelacy of Lebanon is the official name [4], and should never be a reference, but the main page. Please undo the reverts Խմբագրող (talk) 06:33, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Խմբագրող: Hi, these redirects simply do not meet any speedy deletion criteria. As I stated in my edit summaries, you are free to nominate them for deletion at WP:RFD. ✗plicit 13:02, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That's the first time I do it in English Wikipedia, will you support me? --Խմբագրող (talk) 13:29, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Miles Spencer - Delete

Please forgive any nomenclature shortcomings here; Interested on why this was deleted today? This page has existed for ~20 years and also has sources such as Forbes, NY Times, Fast Company, etc. contributing to the article. There are also multiple wiki pages that cross link. Note; this is also a living TV/Media personality. Full Disclosure; I work in an affiliate and was asked to investigate.

This page does not exist. The deletion, protection, and move log for the page are provided below for reference. 11:59, 18 September 2024 Explicit talk contribs deleted page Miles Spencer (Expired PROD, concern was: Poorly sourced promotional article on a "media entrepreneur".) Tag: Twinkle (thank) Fletcherpoince (talk) 20:41, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Explicit See above. I am tasked with investigating this removal, which has been active over ten years... mostly I am interested to know what promotional [piece/article/picture] may have triggered the PROD (which I missed until now- my bad)... the most likely fair solution is to remove the offending citation and let the legacy page stand. Happy to propose this back to the community, but figured I'd ask you first. Please advise. Kind regards Fletcherpoince (talk) 00:57, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Fletcherpoince:(talk page watcher) There are no "legacy pages" on Wikipedia as explained in WP:LONGTIME. A proposed deletion is, for the most part, considered to be a non-contentious one; so, if you're telling Explicit that you wish to challenge this deletion per WP:DEPROD, then (absent any really serious issues) he most likely can restore the article. This, however, doesn't ensure that the article can't be nominated for deletion by someone at some point in the future. The best way to reduce the risk of that happening is to make sure the article complies with relevant Wikipedia policies and guidelines, in particular Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons and Wikipedia:Notability.

Finally, since you're claiming to work in an affiliate and have been tasked with investigating this removal, you most certainly sound to have at least an WP:APPARENTCOI. For this reason, I strongly suggest that you take a close look at Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure before doing anything else to better understand what's going to be expected of not only you but also of anyone else who might be being asked to make requests on behalf of Miles Spencer. You might also want to take a look at Wikipedia:Ownership of content, Wikipedia:When your boss tells you to edit Wikipedia and Wikipedia:An article about yourself isn't necessarily a good thing for reference as well and pass along the information you find on those pages to whoever asked to "investigate" this matter because they might not fully understand some important things about Wikipedia. -- Marchjuly (talk) 01:19, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for guidance @talk page stalker. Please read my first sentence; "Please forgive any nomenclature shortcomings here" (rookie); I wanted to review the article for compliance as you suggest but ATM can't see it. So request is first step. Thanks again, incl. guidance on COI, Biographies, Notability. Fletcherpoince (talk) 02:12, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Explicitjust checking in on this. respectfully Fletcherpoince (talk) 21:13, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the deletion of Mohammed Tharwat Hassan (Scientist)

Hi, I have realized you deleted Mohammed Tharwat Hassan's page. This page was created to present the biography of Mohammed Tharwat Hassan, an associate professor of physics and optical sciences at the University of Arizona. All the information and references on that page were correct and obtained from the Physics Department at the University of Arizona website https://w3.physics.arizona.edu/people/mohammed-hassan and from his research group's website

https://sites.arizona.edu/mohammedhassan/

Also, The research was based on his published research articles on his Google Scholar website

https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=JA0qsY0AAAAJ&hl=en

I would highly appreciate it if you could review the information and if confirmed to restore the page.

Thank you so much! — Preceding unsigned comment added by MTH111 (talk • contribs) 01:44, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MTH111: Sorry, but as the page was deleted as a result of a deletion discussion, I cannot unilaterally undelete the page. I see that you created a draft. You are free to work on it and submit your work for review at Articles for creation. ✗plicit 03:34, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank! @Explicit is there a particular reason for the deletion of the page?

also I would like to declare COI for the draft page i just submitted for review. MTH111 (talk) 03:52, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@MTH111: The link to the deletion discussion is at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mohammed Tharwat Hassan, where other editors argued their reasons for deletion. To declare your COI, please see the instructions at WP:UPE, particularly the "Connected contributor (paid) template" box. ✗plicit 04:00, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Explicit, I saw the discussion led to the deletion. However, the H-index is not a rigid parameter for the scientist contribution. For example, Prof. John F. Clauser (Nobel prize in Physics in 22) his H-idex is 39 and when he won the prize it was 28 https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=BDm2SGcAAAAJ&hl=en . Also, Prof. Donna Strickland ( Nobel prize in Physics in 2018) , same research field as Mohammed Hassan, has H-index -39 and much less in 2018. Mohammed Hassan is the inventor of the the world's fastest (attosecond) electron microscope 2024, He demonstrated the fastest attosecond laser pulse in 2016, the attosecond optical switch in 2022.

I saw also an argument about his education. He got his PhD from the prestigious Max-Planck Institute of Quantum Optics, Munich, Germany . His PhD supervisor is Ferenc Krausz (Nobel prize in Physics 2023). Then, he did his postdoc at the California Institute of Technology under the supervison of Ahmed Zewail (Nobel Prize 1999 in chemistry).

Hassan research on attosecond electron microscope and for the first time imaging the electron motion was all over the media in the last few weeks ( one week after the page deletion) , see https://scienceadvances.altmetric.com/details/147507143/news

Hence, I would ask you to reconsider the deletion of Mohammed Tharwat Hassan Page. Thanks! 2601:500:8785:9F90:E080:24C9:6B78:65FC (talk) 05:37, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request for undeletion of pages of IMOCA 60 class boats

Hello, I noticed you deleted the pages to these three boats: IMOCA 60 11th Hour, IMOCA 60 Initiative Coeur 4, IMOCA 60 Maitre Coq 5. It is common practice, that every boat of the IMOCA 60 class has its own article. As the most important race of that class, the Vendée Globe is about to start in about two months, these article become more relevant and the sources available about the boats get better. I would like to have the chance to bring the pages up to a worthy standard and would like to request the undeletion of these. V.Glas (talk) 10:09, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done – as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored upon request. ✗plicit 10:15, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Request Undeletion

Hi, I'm Monophile I would like to request the undeletion of this page Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tushar Palve i need more one chance and find Sufficient sources and add to the page, deleted I believe I can build this article so that it visibly meets WP:GNG and WP:BIO, Please restore the page Moved into draftspace, so that I can make edits to it. Thank you. Monophile (talk) 04:55, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Monophile:

Done, now available at Draft:Tushar Palve. I suggest going through the Articles for creation process to get an independent reviewer to look at your improvements and determine if the subject meets notability guidelines. ✗plicit 10:19, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

FYI, this article has been recreated under Dr Tushar Palve, even shorter than before and without addressing the prior issues that led to deletion. As your refund was not conditioned on use of the AfC process I'm not sure if this is something I should be raising here, but since it started here I wanted to let you know.

I will be considering whether to PROD/AfD this again, but have given @Monophile the opportunity to move it back into draftspace. Oblivy (talk) 04:15, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A Grammar of Vai.jpg

Hello! I re-started the article A Grammar of Vai after I found some book reviews about it. I am aware A Grammar of Vai.jpg was deleted because the article had been made into a redirect (as the sourcing was not yet in place). Now that the article is back, is it OK if the image is re-uploaded?

@Reading Beans: Hi, these do not qualify for speedy deletion as subpages. They should have been bundled in the above AFD. They must go through a separate deletion discussion to get deleted. ✗plicit 23:49, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Fresh start?

so first off, i was gonna put this in an, which sent me to an/i, which sent me to recently active admins, i went with you because you reply fast, if you know a better place to ask this please tell me...

so a few years back, i got indef-banned for, frankly, being a piece of shit...

but as i mentioned it's been a few years, and i feel like i've improved? on the WP:NOTHERE side, i've become what i swore to destroy (take this reddit comment i found that might explain it), on the maturity side... i was 12... not trying to excuse my actions, but... and finally take my inkipedia contributions, and this one singular edit i made here since, i guess??

so... can i come back to editing? 99.137.85.166 (talk) 06:18, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well, by editing while logged out, you're already off to a bad start because you are evading your block, something your IP was blocked for nearly four years ago. Wikipedia does offer clean starts, but this would only apply if your account is not currently blocked. You have the option to log into your original account to appeal your block, but I can't guarantee you'll get the result you want due to the aforementioned block evasion. ✗plicit 07:40, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Peter Krasinski filmography

Hi Explicit. This redirect was a blank-and-redirected article, so not eligible for WP:G8 unless its prior history was also eligible for speedy deletion.
