Pure Hemp

Why does information on Pure Hemp (which, by the way is the world's FIRST 100% hemp cigarette paper) keep getting deleted, while brand new brands like RAW have boastful ads in the place of encylopedic information?

Users keep deleting any non-large brands. Pure Hemp is already covered under the Smoking / Miquel & Costas pages so there is no need to cover them again. Many brands have been deleted from that section as well. I take it from your few posts that you work for Pure Hemp - please don't try to use Wiki to promote your brands if that is the case.

By the way...

E-mail

It seems as though there was a problem with my email during the last couple days, so did not receive emails sent until about 12:00PM EST today. It seems to be fine now, but if you sent me an email before then, please resend and know that that's why I have not replied :)

Tuesday or Wednesday would probably be a good day to transclude the request, schedule-wise, so let me know how it's going. Leebo ^T/C 01:55, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why the deletion of Darwinian Theory and Ethical Problems

I'm sure you probably disagree with the article I was constructing, but I'm not sure why that makes it deletion material. If it was the puppy part, that was just me being humorous. You could have just asked me to remove that section. So why did you delete it, and what can I do to post it whilst making you happy?

Retrop1111 09:38, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

With all due respect, I had less than 7 seconds (i.e., an arbitrarily short length of time) to start making citations. All of the claims I made were going to be cited. I have a degree in philosophy, for which I specialized in the philosophy of science and biomedical ethics. I do not have a degree in working at the speed of light. Retrop1111 09:52, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why an article concerning the widely accepted ethical implications of Darwinian theory is unencyclopedic, but if you say so. For the record, though, I have several encyclopedias of philosophy (some of which are written by a single individual, such as Antony Flew), and they are replete with similar listings.

Hello Merope. Just a quick note to say thank you for the Barnstar. As you may be able to tell I am adding the episode summaries as I am rewatching the series so I should be finished in a few days.

Traffic Cops deletion and User:Baarskaagaard

Hi I noticed when checking today's page history in Scottish music articles that a user has twice been reverted or deleted with the accusation of vandalism. I do not know what was on the page you deleted but you suggest "cut and paste" vandalism and a comment on the user's talk page called it a hoax. I also notice that the users edit to the article The Don (song) was subsequently reverted as vandalism by User:Chappy84 -perhaps taking the lead from the other article action. Now "The Don" edit was a good faith edit as far as I can see although not especially needed in the article and arguably not correctly licensed tagged (photo of a 7 inch single to illustrate unusual colour). It was certainly not intentional vandalism.

It seems to me a new user has been called a vandal twice and a hoaxer - unless I am missing something where is "assume good faith". I have no idea who Baarskaagaard is and I suppose something might have been obvious from the Traffic Cops page you deleted that but it is a UK single by Calvin Harris and fits in with the users surrounding edits today. Could you (as deleting admin) check the users contributions and talk page in case they need friendly advice rather than a sledgehammer?

Apologies if there is any history here I am unaware. Citizensmith 19:43, 13 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Update Chappy84 informs me that the Calvin Harris related info was false and that the user had faked the record cover in his opinion. If they really went to that length then I guess they might have also deliberately added an intentionally unclear but genuine image of a single in the other edit which would make it vandalism (if subtle) rather than just a newbie I guess...

Hey..you deleted my article called 'DarkMindZ'

I know you probably thought it was spam, but it wasn't! Me and some others were still working on it, it's more about telling people about the group's achievements, history, and so on. It's not spam, I promise!

I will try to make the article again. Please give me a chance, and don't delete it :( —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wolfrat (talk • contribs)

OK, but the article was more about the group than the site anyway. I will try to make it 'notable' anyway.

Re: Resolved & locked

Yeah, I get that. It's just that the locked template is unsightly and does more to draw attention to the discussion than to dismiss it. I think that you and Michaelas10 thoroughly defused the situation even without the templates :) ˉˉ^anetode╦╩ 15:10, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

QuadSearch deletion

Mrs Merope

I'd like to know why you deleted my aricle. (QuadSearch) It was a presentation of a metasearch engine.

I think that a visiting user that wants to know about metasearch engines, metasearching and/or information retrieval would like to read it. It's another metasearch engine and I was about to add some scientific references tothe article.

Wikipedia has many similar articles e.g. for dogpile, metacrawler etc. Was my article something different?

Terry Borman deletion

stub.--80.109.98.103 17:35, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Merope,

You recently deleted the page on Terry Borman as I was creating it. I feel this was an error as he is a well known and well respected current violin maker.

He has published many articles of interest in the world of violins including articles in Strad Magazine, The Violin Society of America Journal, and the Journal of the Acoustical Society of America.

He is one of the most respected contemporary makers and his instruments are owned by numerous performers listed on Wikipedia including Kyung-Wha Chung, Jaime Laredo, Pamela Frank and Pinchas Zukerman.

He was one of only a handful of makers from around the world invited to the International Violin Competition of Indianapolis 2007 to show his instruments.

He is conducting cutting edge research into the acoustics of historical instruments with acousticians around the world.

Additionally, he is working with dendochronologists around the world to examine the wood densities of historical instruments.

All this research is being conducted in order to improve the construction of current instruments.

There are numerous other contemporary makers who have pages on wikipedia, many of whom do not have nearly the credentials of Mr. Borman. Why was he singled out for deletion?

Thank you --Aintmo 17:44, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Terry Borman deletion

I disagree and I think you deleted too quickly.

The journals in question do not keep past issues on their sites, so the original articles are all published on a page on Terry's website. Clicking on the links brings up the original articles from the magazines and journals in pdf format.

The internal links linked to 4 other Wikipedia pages of top international violinists who own and perform on his instruments.

It took me 45 minutes to create that page and all that work is now gone. I would ask that you read more carefully and check all the links before you delete so quickly.

Regarding your comment about watchlisting, you may want to consider adding Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Roma Virtual Network, which concerns (or rather, is supposed to concern) the notability of a set of Yahoo! Groups mailing lists created by Novoselsky Valery. So far there have been no personal attacks or incivility, though some editors are making racially-grounded arguments, and I fear they may develop into the same sort of behaviour witnessed on the Bangová and Valery AfDs. —Psychonaut 08:50, 23 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fraternity Sigma Kappa Alpha

Dear merope, I am writing in regards to an article about my fraternity which you deleted due to notability.This group of brothers really wants to see the page remain active, and i am attempting to find the best route to take. I wish to run this by you for noteworthyness. We are a group founded by WWII veterans at the university of redlands. Now We have alumni who are gulf war veterans, as well as multiple alumni who are currently doing service in Iraq. they are members of the U.S. marine core, and the Elite Army Rangers. This brotherhood truly founds that to be a unique and noteworthy note. If referenced, would that be sufficient to keep the page active?

He just told me he was off his ArbCom probation. This seems weird. He said that he was on probation for a year and ended in May. But Wikipedia:Requests for arbitration/Deathrocker#Enforcement by block Deathrocker says it passed on June 27, which means 5 days from now, his probation will end. Am I correct in assuming this? In fact, I never even saw the word "only for a year", on his ArbCom page, I just assumed good faith and took his word for it. Very confusing. — Moe ε 19:47, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I reversed an edit you made in the above article, but perhaps (upon general browsing) I am behind the WP times here, based on the general massacre of interesting graphic-based articles that seems to be going on right now, whether such images have direct relevance to the article subject or not.

So, please do feel free to revert my edit if this puritanical approach to images really is WP policy right now, but please do let me know (if such is the case) exactly which pending legal case has provoked such an onslaught of Cromwellian desperation with respect to fair-use images intended to achieve nothing but enhance an encyclopedia without prejudice to extraneous commercial interests.

Paul Watkins (Manson Family) (2)

I ask again: why has the link to the third-party transcript of the Watkins appearance on CNN's Larry King Live been left at the page? There is no possibility the transcript is a CNN product. It appears at the Manson Family Today website, where whoever posted it states (at its conclusion) that he or she "typed it on [his or her] laptop as [he or she] watched the show."

The partial transcript that has been deleted from the Wikipedia page was my own work -- as is demonstrated by its few, minor differences from the linked transcript. It was a valuable part of the article; it connected the Watkins appearance with information in his autobiography. Twenty years after the Manson crimes, Watkins was obviously disturbed by the call that came in to Larry King Live from the once-Family-member. The partial transcript made this clear. Without it, the article's final section -- "CNN Interview" -- has no meaning.

My question restated: If there are no copyright concerns associated with a link to a third party's full transcript of the broadcast, why may the Wikipedia article not contain a Wikipedia contributor's own partial transcript that has been included for a specific point?

In assembling the article, incidentally, I searched the CNN website for a transcript. I'm pretty sure I saw one there a year or two ago, but it didn't turn up in the search. -- John Bonaccorsi, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USAJohn B of Philadelphia 18:31, 26 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Paul Watkins (Manson Family) (3)

Your reply is unsatisfactory.

I am going to re-post my transcript of the conversation that took place among Watkins, Maureen Reagan, and "Jenny." As I have indicated, the transcript is a partial one that reveals that a significant event in the Manson Family's history occurred during the broadcast. Accordingly, use of it is fair.

I will search CNN's website one more time for a full transcript. If, again, I do not find it, I will link again to the third-party transcript, which reveals the context of the "Jenny" call. I will also link to one of the three YouTube video clips that were previously posted as "External Links" at the page. Clip 2 of the three picks up with the material I transcribed; that is the one I will link. -- John Bonaccorsi, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USAJohn B of Philadelphia 01:02, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, true -- the "historic significance" thing (re the transcript of the Watkins CNN appearance) is a bit weak; but I thought I'd give it a try. Anyway -- thanks for the reply. -- John BonaccorsiJohn B of Philadelphia 05:32, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Margita Bangová

Whoever proposed the Margita Bangová article for speedy deletion has a point. It's been censored to the point where it no longer gives any indication as to why she is notable. (Some editors have removed all material in the article sourced by the Sun as "bogus", and are rather adamant that it stay out.) —Psychonaut 13:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I understand. I am hesitant to get into an edit war about this, but I think the stripping of legitimate sources and attempts to restore "NPOV" are just a way to acheive a backdoor deletion of sorts. I'll look it over today, perhaps -- I'm leaving for vacation tonight so I can just edit it and run away. :) -- Merope 13:38, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to get into an edit war either, which is why I reverted only once. But there's no sense in keeping the article as it currently stands, as it cleary doesn't meet WP:N. Having failed to persuade the community that the article as it was orginally written did not meet Wikipedia's standards, certain editors have now completely rewritten the article so that it now very obviously doesn't meet Wikipedia's standards. There is doubtless some policy against such circumvention of the rules, but I'm not sure what it is. BTW, there's more about this at User talk:David Gerard#AFD closure. —Psychonaut 14:02, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I completely agree. Also, when one begins a controversial edit like that by mentioning civility and etiquette policies and warning against trolls, it's clear that the person knows he's going against consensus and wants to appear the honorable party. I've reverted the edit and left a couple of notes on the talk page. We'll see what happens. -- Merope 14:10, 28 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Am I doing something wrong?

I looked at several other pages on the Professional certification page and followed there examples. Below is another version of the page that I would like to create but I wanted to check before I posted it and got blocked from adding/editing pages to the site.

Nortel Certifications in Network computing, is an Information Technology (IT) professional certification on Nortel products and IEEE standard technologies. The Nortel Certification tests are administered by a Prometric test center. Nortel Training is accomplished by Nortel training partners like Global Knowledge.
