User talk:Sainik1
A tag has been placed on J3HaaD requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a real person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable. If this is the first page that you have created, then you should read the guide to writing your first article.
If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.
For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Corvus cornixtalk 22:23, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
J3Haad
[edit]Hi. Thanks for your note. I've recreated the article as a subpage of your user page at User:Sainik1/J3HaaD. I'd recommend you read this page to find out more about our guidelines on notability and verifability - i.e. what is and is not acceptable content in this encyclopedia. If you can adress these concerns feel free to work on the article and move it back to the main encyclopedia (ask on my talk if you need some help!) Best wishes.

- You may want to check out your subpage as it looks like some one is vandalising it. I didn't want to mess with it as it's on your page but I thought you' want to know. BigHairRef | Talk 21:21, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
- YOu may want to ask for it to be semi-protected here, making sure you mention its a personal page so it's not going to restrict edtis. It's only likely to succeed if it keeps being vandalised though so if this is the only time it's less likely. Other than than I can't think of anything as long as each time you log on you check the edit history and revert back to the last one you did. BigHairRef | Talk 07:31, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
J3HaaD
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article J3HaaD, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}}
to the top of J3HaaD. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 16:13, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
- I replied at the talk page for the article. You can read my opinions there. You might also want to join the conversation here. ~a (user • talk • contribs) 19:26, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
User:Sainik1/J3HaaD
[edit]Hi, I took the option of copying the article to User:Sainik1/J3HaaD as before you had a redirect and if/when the article is deleted the redirect will not work. I suggest you keep the page here until such time as you have WP:RS then it could be recreated. SunCreator (talk) 15:50, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
Techniche
[edit]Hello Sainik1, I've checked through the history log and notice that ever since bytes sizes have being added for his article, there have been tons of spam and poorly written edits added by User:125.20.8.166 in August 2007 and also User:Bhatla.ankit last month a couple of weeks prior to its speedy deletion per criteria G11 because of its load of spam. Basically, it would have to be reverted back to the version of April 17, 2007. By then the version seems somewhat better but with no sources so validate some of the content that proves its notability like it is one of the biggest festivals in eastern India (I presume the festival is held in India).
But another possibility is that Techniche would have to be re-started over again because of all the mess-up. If it doesn't bother you, you can start a new version of the article since criteria G4 (re-creation of a previously deleted material) does not apply for this article since once it was deleted as a proposed deletion (WP:PROD) (not a deletion discussion (WP:AFD).
Before I make a sudden move I will give you three options here to see what you do prefer. Do you want me to restore the article minus the spam (but you have to make some improvements to solidify its notability (WP:N) and to meet WP:V. The article would have to be reverted to the April 17, 2007 version. Secondly do you want to simply restart the article or thirdly (and mostly because if I cannot reply to your reply quick enough - see below for reason) you can contest the speedy deletion at WP:DRV
Keep in mind that on weekdays I cannot reply after 2 PM EDT (1800 UTC) as I am at work during evenings, so the response might be slow. --JForget 15:25, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
- Another option could also be to contact User:Mangojuice the administrator who deleted the article per G11 (spam) on August 29 to let him know that the article was infested by spam by two editors. --JForget 15:32, 10 September 2008 (UTC)
- Actually even the pre-April 17 edits were mostly spam so I guess it would have to be restarted if the new article can solidify/assert the notability of the festival. --JForget 14:42, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
First, I think I should send you the copy of the deleted article first because if restored in the condition it was someone might tagged it has spam/speedy deletion for that reason. I will send you two copies of the article - one before the recent deletion and the other minus all the spam. You can proceed with the improvements and add sources so it can return. I made a quick check on Google with the terms Techniche + India and while there were plenty of returns - in the first pages of returns I have not seen a whole lot of those on the Festival or at least not a lot would give tons of non-spam and/or sourced information and few third-party sources, but I'm giving you the occasion to improve it. Like I said the version prior to the insertion of the spam doesn't really assert its notability and could be susceptible for a deletion discussion thus AFD.
See User:Sainik1/Techniche (with the spam content) and User:Sainik1/Techniche2 which has the first version and the one on April 17, 2007. Those links are available at your user page as well. Feel free to use which one you want to do the changes. After you are done you can ask any administrators if it can have the green light or since it was not subject to AFD you can be bold and restore it. However just make sure that the version is not susceptible for deletion. It has been deleted twice already and maybe some editors might request the title to be salted or protected against re-creation.
If you are unable to make the article pass WP:N you can still add some content if needed to the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati. There is a breif mention of Techniche in the Festivals section. --JForget 14:48, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
Sorry to bother you again, but while you have started editing in March 2008, you have not received any of the welcome messages with some helpful links, so I will add some of the links which might help you for that article.
