Speedy deletion nomination of Nadia lebrun

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Nadia lebrun requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.

Vidya Niket

You've just deleted our page and the reason given was it was advertising. It was not advertising but just general information. Before creating the page we checked numerous pages of similar type. You can refer to few pages given - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Angels_High_School, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delhi_Public_School,_Gwalior. If our page can not be published then can you please explain what is the reason for these pages to continue. Anurag gupta17 (talk) 15:44, 3 June 2014 (UTC)Vidya Niket Anurag gupta17 (talk) 15:44, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Unlike those articles, your article had promotional language like "The mission and implementation of our goals are guided by some of the most outstanding and accomplished individuals in India and abroad" and "the school campus abounds in natural splendour". You were writing the page as if it were a mirror of the school's own website, rather than a neutral encyclopedia article. See WP:NPOV and WP:SPAM. NawlinWiki (talk) 15:46, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Before writing to you we made these two changes in the text but before publishing you had already deleted the page.

If we make these modifications then will it pass through your standard criterion ? If yes could you please help us to retrieve the text so that we can make necessary changes. Anurag gupta17 (talk) 15:53, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Deletion of Minus33 Clothing

I am writing to inquire why you deleted the page I wrote about Minus33 Merino Wool Clothing. The reason you supplied was advertising, but it was not. It was modeled very similarly to LL Bean, Icebreaker, and SmartWool. Many of those companies have pages outlining their history, product line, and competition, as we did. If it is OK for those companies to have pages, it should be allowable that a 90+ year old company have one as well. Please advise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Csexton25 (talk • contribs) 21:19, 3 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Company Wikipedia page deleted

Hello,

I noticed that a few days ago, my company's Wikipedia article was deleted because the user who created the page was either blocked or banned.

Here is the original link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EDSI_(company)

What steps can I do to recover the content from the article?

Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shanafan (talk • contribs) 16:01, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

the Lotus and the Storm

I think you deleted the page just created because the note says it looks like the page was used for advertising rather than a encyclopedia type of document. This is a book and the page was simply describing the book. here's the link to another book that appears in Wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_History_of_Love This wasn't deleted, so I assume it conforms to whatever your policy is.

I'm not sure why what was created was deemed "advertising." Could you explain and help? Is it the format? Is it because the content didn't have "boxes" ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Connghe (talk • contribs) 18:46, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Because, unlike The History of Love, the Lotus page is promotional, with language like "The Lotus and the Storm moves forward with a plot that is filled with action but is also deeply reflective about how one makes one’s way through the discordance of life in search of home and peace.", as well as a set of blurbs from other authors. Please see WP:SPAM and WP:NPOV. NawlinWiki (talk) 18:49, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]


Minus33 Again

Why did you delete the Minus33 page re-write? There was no advertising in it at all. The page was completely factual and had the history of a textile mill from 1916. This company is a great historical example of the textile manufacturing business in America. Can you please give some insight as to why it was deleted again?Csexton25 (talk) 19:36, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • "some of the most distinguished manufacturers and retailers". Also, there are other problems: (1) the description is almost all about the Packard company rather than Minus33; (2) the article cites no reliable, independent sources (see WP:V) to show that Minus33 (as opposed to Packard) is notable per WP:CORP.

Fast Deletion

Hello, You recently deleted the Cerego page in wiki. Not sure the reasoning behind this. This company has been around since 2000, has raised $30million+ and have strategic partnerships with the Gates Foundation, etc. All this has been referenced. Could you please explain why you deleted and how to fix the article so it works? This company recently moved from Japan to the USA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart.fm Thanks Williefoxtrot (talk) 20:43, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article was promotional. "Cerego’s patented technology enables users to learn information quickly and track their progress within a personalized “Memory Bank”, a visualization of learning progress that maps activation and memory strength across all courses and individual items studied. The Memory Bank makes learning and re-learning more efficient and effective by surfacing a granular, real-time understanding of the learning and forgetting progress for each unique learner." This reads like advertising copy. See WP:SPAM and WP:NPOV. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:11, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Would it be better to use spaced rehearsal instead of the description of the memory bank? This is pulled from press/references written about Cerego. So don't reference the references? Williefoxtrot (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 21:16, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • What you need are *independent* references (i.e., not press releases) that discuss Cerego and show that it is notable per WP:CORP. If there aren't any independent sources, then there shouldn't be an article on this company just yet. See WP:RS. NawlinWiki (talk) 21:20, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Could you define "independent source" These references are not press releases, they are written by journalists. Thanks. Williefoxtrot (talk) — Preceding undated comment added 21:25, 4 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

George Kerr Mackie

You deleted an article about George Kerr Mackie who is a historical figure with references, who house is on the protected historical sites of Kansas and who had references. We had an intro to wikipedia course today and you deleted the work of a 12 year old girl who is learning to use wikipedia. Please restore the article.

Here is the source : http://skyways.lib.ks.us/genweb/archives/1912/m3/mackie_george_k.html from Kansas: a cyclopedia of state history, embracing events, institutions, industries, counties, cities, towns, prominent persons, etc.

Here is the letter about the significance of including his in the national registry of historical places: http://www.kshs.org/resource/national_register/nominationsNRDB/Douglas_MackieGeorgeKHouseNR.pdf Criterion A : "for the reflection of the commercial success of the entrepreneur George Mackie".

thanks mike James Michael DuPont (talk) 23:46, 5 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • Mr. Mackie's house is notable for being on the National Register of Historic Places, but I don't see how Mr. Mackie himself is notable per our guidelines at WP:BIO. Please read those and let me know how you think he qualifies. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 12:08, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
As I said, his house qualifies because of his success at least according to the National Register of Historic Places. I already said that, (A. That are associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of our history;) So his commercial success was what made him notable. And please, for the sake of a first time editor, if you are going to keep it deleted, can you at least restore the article in HaseBears userspace and explain to the 12 year old girl what when wrong. I am doing a course on Wikipedia over the summer with these kids and I dont want to have to have them type it in again. We can put his son under his fathers page which is already notable. Here are some more citations for him : The Bulletin. Concatenated Order of Hoo-Hoo. 1905. pp. 2–. Nelson Sutro Greensfelder; Harry Roberts (Jr.) (1952). The Explosives Engineer.

Bluepoint Delete

Hey there, this article was my first one so the writing isn't all that good. I hadn't read some of the other Wiki guidelines but I do see that the company isn't notable enough for an article at least at this point. It was kinda hard to make it neutral since pretty much everything I found was promotional and I don't know a whole lot about the company either, but thanks for your time.

And no, I was not paid to write that article. Jdb213 (talk) 22:04, 6 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I was wondering if that move protection can be undone now; I'm asking here because I've no idea about the correct procedure for this kind of thing.

Ong Kean Swan

You closed the debate on this on 6 June, but has been re-written essentially as the same thing, complete with lauds. Bearian (talk) 18:32, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your contribution for updating the biographies. Just a gentle reminder that editors must take particular care when adding information about living person: See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:BLP

Regarding the lawsuit of Tengku 1) A person accused of a crime is presumed innocent until proven guilty and convicted by a court of law. For people who are relatively unknown, editors must give serious consideration to not including material in any article suggesting that the person has committed. 2) Question: No conviction record was found from the reference link and he has pleaded not guilty, and he should be presumed innocent. We should not include the article suggesting he is committed, isn’it? This has violate the NPOV as well.

Regarding Red Island Coffee franchise business 1) His name is not appeared on the Guangming daily. (Please read thoroughly, I cannot find his name) 2) This is the Biography of Ong Kean Suan not Ong Tong Suan. Furthermore, SSM website listed Conviction for Ong Tong Suan only. 3) Question: I cannot find his name from a reliable source of reference. We should not include the article suggesting he is committed, isn’it? This has violate the NPOV as well. Garydog (talk) 22:55, 10 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, I agree with Bearian, Garydog has gutted the article, removing the civil judgment against Ong in the Melilea case, the charges against surewin4u by the Central Bank, Ong involvement in Red Island Coffee with the conviction of his brother Philip, and Ong's arrest for impersonation. I do not have access to paper newspaper archives, so many secondary sources are unavailable. I also wonder what happened with MLB Resources, their insurance business. I could not find anything after the 2009 news release. Anyway, what is the proper recourse? --Bejnar (talk) 16:45, 14 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

ESafely was deleted

Hi- You recently "speedily deleted" an article which I wrote about a software product that offers parental controls for computers. The article was called ESafely. I understand that you felt the article was too promotional, but I tried to follow precisely other wiki articles about similar subjects which have not been deleted, so I assume those are not overly promotional. I would like to try to get my article up again, so can you give me more specific guidelines on what I need to do to write a "wiki-worthy" article that will not be deleted? Thanks so much.Secretsources (talk) 08:34, 16 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fantastic Cleaners Notability

Hally NawlinWiki, I have a basic question - why was the article for Fantastic Cleaners deleted under A7? The text was not promotional, it was for a notable company in London. The article was marked as "under heavy construction" with the intent to be edited, expanded and moderated under the guidelines of wikipedia. Information about the intents was also included in the Talk page, written by me. It was included in the Portal:London and Portal:Companies as a sign for the article's intentions - to be informative and provide insight for the company it is written for. By deleting it under A7, you suggest it was not notable enough despite its presented references? Here are some of the achievements and proofs of concept I have found so far: The Scoot Headline Golden Award for 2014 (NATIONAL GOLD WINNERS Fantastic Cleaners, London – LARGE BUSINESS) - http://www.headlineawards.co.uk/winners-2014/ CLENSA approval and endorsement - http://clensa-approved.com/consumers/listing/fantastic-cleaners-2/ (please look up what CLENSA is) The company featured and working with "The Kindness Offensive" - http://thekindnessoffensive.com/component/content/article/42-supporters-landing-page/238-fantastic-cleaners (Look that up too) About the work with "The Kindness Offensive", featured in PR News Wire - http://www.prnewswire.co.uk/news-releases/fantastic-cleaners-fight-library-closures-with-random-acts-of-kindness-231533611.html Presenter at "Ideal Home Show" - http://www.idealhomeshow.co.uk/exhibiting/exhibitor-search/exhibitor/32637-fantastic-services (please take your time to check and familiarise yourself with the partners and sponsors of this event and the role of Fantastic Cleaners there) Let's not forget other media coverage: Featured in TNT Magazine UK - https://www.tntmagazine.com/london/lifestyle/moving-out-in-a-hurry-you-can-now-shift-your-stuff-via-video-link (You may find their work interesting in the field of journalism) Or maybe you are familiar with "Virgin" magazine? Fantastic Cleaners is featured there as an example for innovative company with notable achievements in its field - http://www.virgin.com/disruptors/the-zappos-affect-why-innovation-needs-to-be-underpinned-with-core-values If you think these are not "personal" enough, check the featured article for the company in UK's leading property selling company - http://blog.zoopla.co.uk/2014/05/21/cleaning-service-tips-for-landlords/ Or the personal preference of clients in Bristol(since you chose to ignore any and all reviews reviews) - http://slummysinglemummy.com/2014/05/23/review-a-spring-clean-with-fantastic-services/ Also, could you please tell me how are companies like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superior_Rug_Cleaning https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mr._Rooter https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxi_Fresh_Carpet_Cleaning Have more notable articles (when it comes to A7) than the company I decided to edit for? Have they achieved more?

Blacklist for preposterousuniverse.com

Hi. You seem to be listed as the admin who added this entry to the spam blacklist: 

\bpreposterousuniverse\.com\b     # NawlinWiki  #  multiple spambots

I haven't been able to find any discussion of the reason for that blacklisting, so I thought I'd ask you what led to it. The author of the blog in question, Sean M. Carroll, is a rather well-known cosmologist at Caltech, a Fellow of the American Physical Society, and a colleague of mine. I can't imagine why anyone would be spamming links to his blog on Wikipedia, but blocking links to his site from his own entry here seems like an undesirable response. I'm not especially familiar with the process for this sort of thing, so any advice would be appreciated. --Steuard (talk) 01:19, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I'm sure it was being spammed, or I wouldn't have added it - but given that it is a legitimate site, I'll take it off the blacklist and we'll see what happens. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 01:48, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Bruma Lake Flea Market, Gauteng

For your information, the references were not added earlier as the server was down/ links were not accessible. The page has been tagged under tourism appropriately as it is a tourism attraction. The site is already mentioned by City of Johannesburg and other entities having tourism attraction and essence. There is no company operating or a brand being promoted of a company, these are the local arts and crafts traders. Majority of the product is hand made. I invite you to visit the place and meet these traders. The flea market was already existing adjacent to the present site and was closed in 2012 due to Chinese mall coming to the place and because of which these art and craft traders which is their livelihood had to move to nearby street.

Hi Nawlin - I think an admin is needed here but didn't want to go to a dramahboard straightaway - partly because this editor would qualify for notices at more than one and anyway, me no admin. So, the above is a new article created by User talk:Vinaygurung2 whose other creations have been speedied (including one by you a couple of days ago - hence why I'm contacting you about this one!), and article contributions deleted etc. Guy's had some warnings but they're not getting through - I don't know if there's a new article checking process that would catch this one but I thought I'd better get someone on to both it and the creator. Best, Plutonium27 (talk) 19:35, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

PS I've just noticed in the History that User:Anupam marked the article as reviewed, added a cat and an 'unreferenced' template (which has been removed by the creator). I don't know but that article does seems to me like it had many more problems than that tag would cover? Plutonium27 (talk) 20:00, 13 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of CEO Connection

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on CEO Connection, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. NawlinWiki (talk) 16:00, 15 July 2014 (UTC)

you already deleted the page...not just one but all I created...not cool...do you have any grudge against this company? how can you delete without giving a chance to contest and explain? i was developing it slowly and was doing my best to not make it an advertisement issue...seems you have some issue with this company...

not cool...mr administrator...to delete all the pages at once that I invested time on creating it...not cool..

Speedy deletion nomination of TubeMogul Inc.

Hi Nawlin, yesterday you took down our article TubeMogul Inc. citing criteria A7 "This was done because the article, which appeared to be about a real person, individual animal, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, did not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia." The company created one of the world's first demand-side video advertising platforms, and has launched several well documented global initiatives to improve the digital advertising sphere. Additionally there are 42 second and third-party sources from publications ranging from Huffington Post to Mashable.com. Several of our competitors articles are far more advertorial than ours. What should I do to get this up permanently??? - our IPO is very close would that be substantial enough for you!? It's very confusing why some businesses get to shamelessly promote themselves while others are denied for an subjective reason. Please let me know what I can do to get this article up... for good. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pastrygirl37 (talk • contribs) 21:50, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Understood I have updated and have several new citations given that our company went public today (7/18) - TubeMogul is the first programmatic advertising platform for digital branding to go public, . I have the code saved - The page advised me to contact you prior to attempting to launch again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pastrygirl37 (talk • contribs) 19:03, 18 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

More Edit Filter Requests

I had a request to make of you if you are willing, there has been a tremendous amount of socking by a certain puppetmaster, and I was wondering if it would be possible for you to go into the deleted revisions and create edit filters to prevent their use in further vandalism. I do not want to repeat what the BLP vandalism was, but if you take a look you should see what I'm talking about.

User:Susanteng at article on Ong Kean Swan

Twice since the protection has been removed from the article Ong Kean Swan, User:Susanteng has gutted the article, placing promotional language in place of the existing NPOV text that was supported by independent sources. His first edit, 13 July 2014, had the disingenuous edit summary: Delete dead link. I reverted that edit. The second time, 18 July 2013, he was more honest with his edit summary, but used existing footnotes for new unsupported text. The new text inserted by User:Susanteng paraphrases text from surewin4u.com. I'm not sure what to do at this point. Any suggestions? --Bejnar (talk) 20:16, 19 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Block question

I see you reblocked this IP, but I don't see where that IP has been used since my block expired on the 20th?--Jezebel'sPonyobons mots 19:03, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I saw that the IP had previously been active with respect to Evlekis sock User:The Excavator of Knowledge, which he used (to post an abusive unblock request) after creating several new socks last night. It may be coincidental, but the socking stopped after I blocked the IP again. But if you want to unblock it, that's fine with me. Thanks, NawlinWiki (talk) 19:10, 23 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Planetization

Note this was not a G12 but an A10, copied from Spamdexing. From my quick research "planetization" has nothing to do with search engines, not a fitting redirect.

Hello NawlinWiki, you recently deleted Poetry trend in new india article per CSD A1 & A11. It was already nominated for deletion discussion when you deleted.

Be careful when deleting pages. Always check older revisions before deleting it. Thanks, Jim Carter (from public cyber) 20:44, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion of Pursued!

I was the one who PRODed Pursued! for deletion, but I am not sure the deletion reason you gave is acceptable. The page claimed that Pursued! was a film, which I believe A7 does not apply to. The CSD criteria says that A7 does not apply to "books, albums, software, or other creative works." Although I agree with your deletion, is A7 is acceptable reason? I think that G3 would have been better. Thanks Piguy101 (talk) 21:35, 29 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Article Gen Re, edits on financial security and historical information revoked

I appreciate your recent attention to the Gen Re article and your concern for the issues you raised on User_talk:General_Re (and which, as you suggested, I have now commented on Talk:Gen_Re), and would like to give some additional background for you as a member of Category:Wikipedia_administrators_willing_to_handle_RevisionDelete_requests .

While on first sight my recent changes might be viewed as WP:COI and "advertising" language, I respectfully disagree here. In fact, I am quite aware and conscious of COI as a WP issue and have studied the applicable guidelines across the WP language versions relevant here (mainly English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese; which by the way do vary among each other to some degree).

No doubt, Reinsurance (the line of business of Gen Re as a company) has immense economic impact; so it should be in the interest of WP to provide reliable encyclopedic information insofar, including information on the largest global companies in this field. However, the subject tends to escape the focus of interest of active Wikipedians who are usually unaffiliated with the (re)insurance industry: Experience shows that over time they made few update edits to the Gen Re page, quite in contrast to other, more popular lines of business. As a consequence, several years ago it was felt that in the interest of correct and timely encyclopedic representation a certain amount of such information should be inserted by an affiliated user, observing a neutral and open manner.

Being aware of the WP:COI issue, a colleague first corresponded in person and in writing with several seasoned Wikipedians (of the English and German WP) what approach to take. Only then a dedicated user was created under the name "General Re" (with obvious reference to the corporate name) for the purpose. NB, this is not a shared account but used by a single person, myself.

If you inspect the edits made by user General Re over the last three years, you will notice they are all focused on economic or historic facts, and substantiated by links to independent parties or within WP itself where possible, and only to the Gen Re corporate website where no independent quotes were available. With all due respect, neither are the external links added recently "advertising or inappropriate external links"; I have offered arguments on Talk:Gen_Re.

Hopefully the above will have convinced you of my main point, i.e. WP:COI and biased "marketing" language or links have been avoided. So I would ask you to reinstate my edits dated July 29, 2014 -- thanks. General Re (talk) 17:23, 31 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

PromotionalCodes.com

Hi NawlinWiki, my page for PromotionalCodes.com was speedily taken down. I don't work for the company, it's just a website I use a lot. I'm sure it receives tens of thousands of visitors per week and when I search for 'promotional codes' or 'promo codes' it's right at the top with RetailMeNot. I was pretty sure since it's been featured in significant media outlets -- from the NYT to CNN to Parade -- it would be good enough to have on Wikipedia. Please let it stay? Thanks!
