Deletion of wiki page Business School PAR

Hello.

I have a question about deletion of wiki page Business school PAR. The reason was G8 (Pages dependent on a non-existent or deleted page).

What page is deleted on non-existent? Please explain in detail.

Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Parovci (talk • contribs) 08:01, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

I wrote an article

Dear Gogo Dodo,

I wrote an article this morning, it was the "Before and After Treatment" in "Dental Implant". Now, I can't find it, it looks like it's disappeared. What happened? Is it deleted or something like this?

Biased stub

Hi again! I always wondered why people complained about bad entries rather than changing them, but now I have an idea. I really know nothing about the subject, so I don't feel comfortable doing an edit, plus don't want to get in an edit war over a topic I know nothing about...I had looked up Syracuse Cultural Workers because I saw a reference to them and had never heard of them before. The entry is described as a stub but the second paragraph is an angry tirade and lacks references. Any thoughts? Jeaniac (talk) 20:44, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Question about an IP

May I ask why you blocked 222.127.85.54 (talk · contribs · WHOIS)? I've looked over many of the user's edits and except for the one I warned them about, they seem like they were doing a great job. --Nathan2055talk - contribs 21:14, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

I blocked that IP along with 81.88.159.56 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) because they have been trying to stuff the false Disney Channel ‎Kazakhstan into various articles for a long time. There are several deleted articles and talk pages that you can't access, but the information on the supposed channel keeps shifting. Articles got created and deleted. Then IPs started creating fake pages on talk pages since they couldn't create a real article. The premiere date is always a month or two away from the article was created. If you look at the history of Disney Channel (Central and Eastern Europe) and Template:Disney Channel, you can see a lot of the attempts at forcing the channel into the article. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 22:05, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
Huh. I was just interested because it seemed like a better move to take it to a user talk page than to do a block, but it's not my problem. --Nathan2055talk - contribs 14:06, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello Gogo Dodo. This user (LOLYOUTROLLED (talk · contribs) that you blocked for vandal-only, I think that it is a blatant violation of the username policy because it is an offensive username; the word troll threatens other users.

GOAL

Could you please help me understand why the article about the largest international NGO in Ireland was deleted? I can't understand it. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.223.222.32 (talk) 14:51, 12 October 2012 (UTC)

The deletion log at GOAL (charity) states G11: Unambiguous advertising or promotion, but I did not do that deletion, only your inquiry about why it was deleted at Talk:GOAL (Organization) as a matter of housekeeping. I see that you asked Jimfbleak about the deletion of the article, but he was unable to find the article, which was deleted over a year ago. I will leave him a note about it, but you will need to ask him about the original deletion. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 16:09, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
OK, thanks for that. I'm away for the weekend, but I'll reply on my return Jimfbleak - talk to me? 18:58, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
Ok - since I can't re-crete the article, and since it seems clear to me that there should be one (and perhaps it was deleted for copying from a promotional source?) would you mind creating a stub (something like "GOAL is an international NGO based in Ireland") that I can work on expanding? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.58.197.6 (talk) 17:54, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
Jimfbleak is currently away for the weekend and has yet to respond about the deletion. Instead of creating a stub right now, I recommend you wait to see what Jimfbleak's response is regarding the deletion. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:34, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
Thanks - he suggested I create it, but I can't. Since he seems to be really busy, I'd appreciate it if you could help me out and create it.
BTW - is there any for me to have known what happened to the question I asked on the talk page? Deleting it seems a rather oblique way to answer it - thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.58.197.6 (talk) 01:36, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
The easiest way for you to recreate the article is to create an account and then you would have the ability to create new articles. Alternatively, you can use the Articles for Creation process and one of the AfC volunteers will review and move the article to the proper place. But really, creating an account is the best long term solution.
As for your question you originally asked on the talk page, I deleted it because it did not have an associated article. I didn't figure out what the original article was until you asked later. The original article was under a different name than the talk page that you created. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:46, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
Thanks. If I get round to it I'll try to figure out how to create an account. Maybe in the meantime someone else will be more interested in this and create the stub. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.58.197.6 (talk) 03:24, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Spam farm

FYI, all related accounts are here from the quick SPI. I would suggest someone create a filter for text + there consecutive links. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 01:14, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks. I think the current filter picked up or would have picked up all of these accounts. It has some false positives from time to time, but it also picks up some spam accounts that do not appear to be part of the same spam operation. I noticed that Reaper Eternal added the filter to Mr.Z-bot reporting, which I appreciate since going through the list by myself was quite a chore. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 03:36, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
No problem, you put the list together for me, which takes time, and I appreciate, therefore I always try and return the favour. Do let me know when more shows up, i'll kick the sleepers that will show up. (and maybe we can get an IP block :D) This ANI thread is also related and could reduce quite a few of the issues your getting, should it be chosen to be blocked. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 03:54, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
The filter picked up four more before I'm going to sign off for a bit. How about you watch the page and I just add in whatever gets picked up by the filter that isn't a false positive or some other kind of spam? I'd be happy to filter (ha!) the filter to help you track the bot farm. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:03, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
For sure I can do that! and lol, filter the filter :) Probally best if they are dropped in a new section though (as Stewards might be locking) and feel free to name it whatever you wish. If a new one shows up (like a different spambot), I'd be happy to check into that too. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 07:38, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
Done deal then! I've added in a few more accounts. I know there is a few more spambots around, but I haven't studied them closely enough to figure out some kind of filter. For example, there is the replica jersey spammers like Xiaoxi2 (talk · contribs). Or the random character accounts that post a wall of Chinese text but no links like H6ehwu3gz (talk · contribs). Or another mass wall of text with no links: Lu113185 (talk · contribs) That one has some possibilities though. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:53, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
The first guy, i'd not track, I don't think were going to have a farm there (not even sure it's a bot). Second guy, ya I found a few spambots...keep an eye out in general. The final one is our crosswiki spammer, so please do track him and anything similar. His ranges are usually globally blocked. I'll go take a look at the others. -- DQ (ʞlɐʇ) 04:05, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
Can you provide a list of a few of the old accounts like the last two? They are currently harder for me to find in the recent changes log. The second one has some edit filtering possibilities. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 02:46, 15 October 2012 (UTC)

Bosnian Pyramid

I changed " It is still the tallest pyramid." (they are talking about the egyptian pyramid) into " Currently, the tallest pyramid in the world is the Bosnian Pyramid of the Sun." I am just wondering why it was removed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ncoart (talk • contribs) 03:44, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Because mainstream scientific opinion is that the Bosnian pyramids are natural formations that happen to be pyramid-shaped. Acroterion (talk) 03:48, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Is it possible for me to add a 1.15 called Bosnian Pyramids where I would talk about both views of the bosnian pyramids? Ncoart (talk) 03:54, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

I would strongly discourage that: the Bosnian pyramids are a fringe theory and Wikipedia treats them as such. Acroterion (talk) 04:06, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

"Costrarica's next top nonexistent TV series"

Hi Gogo Dodo. At first I found it mildly amusing, now it's just getting tedious. Is there some sort of abuse filter thingy that can be done about this? (Don't ask me how that would be done. To me, "regular expressions" means "dark, mysterious art of doing computer search somethings... I think.") --Shirt58 (talk) 05:49, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

I think there is something that can be done. I'll look at the old accounts in greater detail over the next couple of days and see what I can come up with. There are some fairly obvious things to look for so it shouldn't be too bad. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:40, 27 October 2012 (UTC)

y_marianna

Hello there - thanks for the comments. Agreed that it is best if someone else writes it, I will just wait for a little while. Agreed about the critisizm directed against me personally - and I even know where it came from: I did a rough translation of the wikipedia article into Russian. Russians are extremely opinionated and actually the idea of the global warming is hostile to them: despite the fact that the film with Al Gore was never screened in Russia legally, the common opinion is that this is an "American propaganda". What reinforces me in that opinion is that when I wrote the Russian translation I cited filmthreat.com about my Student Academy Award film. They cited filmthreat.com regarding the Al Gore film, out of all sources. I.e. it is the same people who are attacking. Also the Russian argument was that the Student Academy Award is not a notable award (there are a lot of articles on wikipedia where winners are on the page). But I agree that the article should be written by someone else, or at least majorly edited, and that there should be just bare confirmed facts there, so I requested deletion, also to escape the Russian-speaking critical attacks of the film I am affiliated with (I did not want any scandals etc etc).

Thanks again for your support/understanding! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Y marianna (talk • contribs) 16:37, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I think the website Film Numud that you have removed some links to matches the link guidelines. Namely it includes content that would not be reproduced on Wikipedia and in that sense is similar to such websites as CIA World Factbook, travel guides, etc. The website includes documentary films on various world countries, listed by country.

My objection to you deleting "Talk: Stevie Vann" page

Talk: Stevie Vann page I re-created because I wanted to discuss a previous deletion of the subject "Stevie Vann" page and the singer Stevie Vann herself, with a view to restoring or creating a new "Stevie Vann" page.

The criterion you quoted for a speedy deletion, G8, "21:17, 29 October 2012 Gogo Dodo (talk | contribs) deleted page Talk:Stevie Vann (G8: Talk page of a nonexistent or deleted page)" may not apply because an exclusion for talk pages without a corresponding subject page is given in Wikipedia's Criteria for speedy deletion, G8, to quote -

"This excludes any page that is useful to Wikipedia, and in particular deletion discussions that are not logged elsewhere".

So "G8" may not be a valid criterion for a speedy deletion of a deletion discussion; your speedy deletion was particularly invalid I suggest because you seem to have exhibited a demonstrable disregard for the need to log the discussion elsewhere. Tut, tut.

It appears that Philosopher, with knowledge of your summary deletion of that talk page I started, it, has dug out my deleted text using his administrator abilities and pasted it into his talk page here.

So my thanks are due to Philosopher for logging my content but no thanks to you, Gogo Dodo, as you seem to have disregarded the deletion discussion I was attempting. So I object to your summary deletion but if you now restore the Talk: Stevie Vann page you deleted, perhaps suggesting why you think it ought to be deleted then we can take the discussion from there on that page, where it belongs. If you insist and refuse to reverse your deletion I intend to request elsewhere that my Talk: Steve Vann page be restored, overruling your inappropriate, invalid, heavy-handed and contemptuous abuse of administration powers. Peter Dow (talk) 20:07, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Replied on your talk page. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 20:24, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply. However, I find your explanation "I deleted the talk page per G8 because your post did not lead to the deletion of the article as the exemption is intended to cover." unconvincing and somewhat fanciful as an explanation for the intention of the exemption. I didn't read that intention stated explicitly anywhere. Did I miss something?

Whatever the intention of the authors of G8 it seems to me that anyone should be allowed to discuss the need for a subject page and to question why an original subject page was deleted without having their contribution to the discussion censored.

I did note this in the Criteria for Speedy Deletion page - "A creator who disagrees with the speedy deletion should instead click on the Click here to contest this speedy deletion button which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag." but I could not see such a button anywhere on the Talk: Steve Vann page nor did I know where else to look for such a button.

No worries

Now I am pleased to note that Philosopher seems to have restored the deleted Talk: Stevie Vann page, reversing your deletion. Therefore I am content to leave matters between us at that and thank you for your time.

I have resumed [discussion of the deletion of the Steve Vann subject page with Philosopher] and I quoted there the earlier part of my communication to you from this page, if you are interested to know. Peter Dow (talk) 21:56, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Well, technically I was restoring a prod'ed article (that I'd deleted) and therefore restoring its talk page, so the issue of whether Gogo Dodo's G8 deletion was valid simply didn't arise. But if all's sorted, that's a good thing. --Philosopher Let us reason together. 01:36, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

Marianna yarovskaya

Hi! I just noticed that the CoI article you deleted a few days ago, Marianna Yarovskaya, has been recreated as Marianna yarovskaya (without cap on the family name) by another user, User:Inga nataya, whose only activity before now had been on the article Inga Nataya (a LA-based fahion designer). Despite assuming good faith, and considering the huge discussion going on at the Russian wikipedia about their version of the article ([1]), I think the probability of Marianna using another editor to keep pushing for the inclusion of her article is far from zero. Can you look into the matter?178.134.206.93 (talk) 10:28, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

I deleted the article because the author requested its deletion. I can't read Russian, so I can't comment on any issues regarding the Russian Wikipedia. Additionally, the different languages are run separately, so what happens on one language Wikipedia does not usually affect another. The newly recreated article is pretty much a copy of the deleted one with the addition of the awards section. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 18:24, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Message from Lucy Paquette

Gogo Dodo,

I am sorry for this misunderstanding -- I am new and am attempting to add content, not to promote. In adding the existence of this book for information purposes, should I add the title,author and ISBN number only? I have mistakenly added the website/link in an attempt to provide information, but that appears to the be issue. May I add the title, author and ISBN only, to conform as other books and movies are added to Wiki? Respectfully yours, Lucy PaquetteLucy Paquette (talk) 18:52, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

Survivor Voting History tables

Hi Gogo Dodo.

I sincerely apologize for the adjustmests I tried to make regarding the tribal council voting history tables on several of the season pages about the TV series, "Survivor." Just so you know, I had noticed similar changes on the pages for their first, second and third seasons prior to the changes I tried to make, and felt nothing more than inspired and/or compelled to do what I could to chip in.

I just checked the pages for every season and looked at every tribal council voting table, and the only table that still needs to be changed back is the one on the page for "Survivor's" first season in Borneo. I trust that that will be fixed soon.

One more thing, I also noticed that a few season pages have a discrepancy with the contestant tables. The ones on the pages for seasons 7 (Pearl Islands), 22 (Redemption Island) and 23 (South Pacific) have duplicates of contestant names, and even I cannot figure out why that's so, let alone what to do to make the tables look neater. I'm sure there's a way. I just cannot figure it out.

Again, my apologies for what I tried to do. It was all because I noticed similar changes on some pages. Nothing less, nothing more. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Patrickballoonman (talk • contribs)

Test Edits

Hi Gogo Dodo,

I just wanted to say thank you for being on top of things with Wikipedia. I made a rather crazy comment on a page that you went back and fixed. I am an avid Wikipedia fan and user and I grow weary of people dismissing Wikipedia as a non-credible source. They argue that "anyone can go in and change it", to which I point out "yes, and it can be changed back". Being a doctoral student, and a researcher I set up this bogus account to do just that; record exactly how long it takes wikipedia editors like yourself who dedicate your time to this site to fix it. So far, the results of my research are quite promising. I apologize for the inconvenience of having to correct such comments, but I required hard data. I thank you for your dedication to this great site with my utmost sincerity and respect. - JC. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TestMaster (talk • contribs) 17:36, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

Palestinian Incitement page

while the deletion discussion is continuing its course readers are reading such unnecessary content on WIKI. the content needs to be deleted now! not tomorrow, not later, but now. If you're unble to do so then others will continue to delete the info (or garbage) until it's taken off wiki. it's that simple. anyone who agrees with such hatred against antoher race should be ashamed of themselves.

My Apologies for the BLP violation, but you also removed a significant chunk of text from which I was in the process of editing. Would it be possible to remove the name and restore the other content? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mbarzetti (talk • contribs) 21:06, 27 November 2012 (UTC)

Hello,

Several months ago I have added some links to Wikipedia (Film Numud website links from a few country pages, namely Palestine, Micronesia, United States and a couple others, less than 10 in total). After a month or so you have removed the links commenting that they infringe WP:EL and not explained any further how they infringe it.

I explained my position on your talk page which you have never answered and archived my message. Therefore I have reverted your edits believing that you have agreed with my explanations. Now after more than a week you have reverted my edits once again, with the same comment that they infringe WP:EL and without replying anyhow to my previous comment at your talk page explaining that they don’t infringe it.

No other users seem to either support your or my side as when I have added the links they stayed until you removed them and when you removed them they stay until I readded them.

Please note that I have not reinserted all the links you have deleted but I have weighted each link separately and reinserted only the ones I thought to be most valuable.

Please explain your position. I hold my own position on the issue. I believe a vote may be needed (RfC or similar) to establish Wikipedia guideline on this particular website if you will insist, just as guidelines on some other websites are explicitly mentioned in WP:EL.

Previous comment on the issue I made in October:

Hello, I think the website Film Numud that you have removed some links to matches the link guidelines. Namely it includes content that would not be reproduced on Wikipedia and in that sense is similar to such websites as CIA World Factbook, travel guides, etc. The website includes documentary films on various world countries, listed by country. Faisal 1918 (talk) 23:36, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

I have planned to introduce more similar links to Wikipedia not only to this website but others as well, however with such disputes I refrained from editing. Let’s resolve this. Faisal 1918 (talk) 20:20, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for reply. I don't think it is a viable option to post at every Talk Page the same discussion although I could if needed. As this is the same website the issues are very similar whether it would be link from article United Arab Emirates or Israel. I also noticed you have removed even the link from List of documentary films about the People's Republic of China even though another similar link is also there to "China Docs" website (but the "China Docs" site shows more anti-PRC films whether the one I put in shows more neutral films). Therefore I think it may be possible to reach an agreement that e.g. such links are acceptable epending on the number of films present. I agree that it is incorrect to put them as the first link.

Request for autoreviewer to be removed from my account

Hello, I no longer have a need for autoreviewer so could you please remove it from my account? (If you are wondering why I am asking you, it is because you were the first administrator name to pop up on recent changes.) Thank you very much. -- Cheers, Riley Huntley 06:51, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

Done, though I don't usually deal with account rights so hopefully I did it correctly. If not, I'll try again. =) When I think about it, you're the first one who rights I've changed besides my own. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:57, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
You did it correctly, except I meant Autopatrolled (I am used to the old work) my mistake, sorry. Could you remove autopatrolled and add back reviewer? -- Cheers, Riley Huntley 07:01, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
No problem. You tripled my user rights log length. I'm not sure I can handle that... -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 07:06, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
Thanks, would you be able to handle my user rights log length if I offered this in apology? ;) -- Cheers, Riley Huntley 08:36, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
I think I can get over it. Thanks for the revert. =) Not sure what prompted it. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:30, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Contesting a Deletion

You recently deleted EnvisionWith.Me with reasoning "A7: Article about a website, blog, web forum, webcomic, podcast, browser game, or similar web content, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject". However, stated article was about a social network, and several networks have Wikipedia pages, such as Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, LinkedIn, etcetera. I am not a part of this entity, the article had accurate and reputable sources, and the content was grammatically correct and factually accurate.

Please clarify why this article did not fit standards, and if there is a possibility of improving the content for potential un-deletion.

Gogo Dodo hi,

I created a talk page which you deleted noting that there is no associated page. It was my understanding that in the absence of a page, creating a talk page was the first step. If I have misunderstood please provide a link to the page telling me how to create a page. Is there anyway I can retrieve that talk page so I don't have to recreate it.

I am having trouble retrieving my password to log in so please reply here.

Thanks Jane

I'm not sure which talk page you are referring to as you have no deleted contributions. If you could tell me which talk page you are referring to, I can give you a specific answer. In general, if you wish to have an article created, but do not want to create the article yourself, you can request it to be created at Wikipedia:Requested articles or Wikipedia:Articles for creation. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 05:52, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
