Speedy deletion of Sandbox Biography

Hi Spenser, I am new to the Sandbox process and was publishing while adding/editing information thinking it was a draft publication. I used the publish button since I was unable to see a save button, apologies for the oversight. I noticed the Sandbox biography has been speedily deleted. The biography is referenced and is impartial and independent and follows the Wikipedia policy. I would like to next complete biography before publishing in the Sandbox for review. I hope this is acceptable and wanted inform before doing so. Many Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adpb (talk • contribs) 12:53, 1 May 2020 (UTC) placing signature (oversighted previously) Adpb (talk) 10:37, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

I thought Publish was the same as "save my sandbox". How do I save my sandbox. I was not ready to publish.

Deleted sandbox

Hello, my sandbox page was deleted without me knowing that it was public, please restore as I had spent a lot of time developing that page. I was going to save the information for myself but now I can't do that since you deleted, and I am a bit new so I was not aware that my sandbox was open to the public. Again, I was only using my sandbox to create a draft. Please do not delete my sandbox, I need it. Thank you if you read this. I hope my situation comes to your concern.

Please take action

Thank you,

User: Jana Hawley

Hello Spencer

ITAA is the premier global professional organization of textile and apparel scholars and educators. We have more than 800 members from around the world. Our members publish in scholarly journals and teach at major universities as well as small liberal arts colleges. We meet annually and our graduates work at the world's second largest employer, after agriculture--the retail industry. I have been a member since 1993, am a past president and have been named the chair of the ad-hoc committee to drive the wikipedia project to make the world better aware of our field. I do hope you will consider reinstating our article as we plan to build out more articles on our most prestigious scholars who have made impact through sustainable textiles, consumer behavior theories, historic archival records, technical design, aesthetic design, and pedagogyJaghawley (talk) 01:11, 6 May 2020 (UTC) among others.

About SpeedDeletation

Hello Spencer. Nice to meet ya, hope is everything well in your end. I would like to know why you have requested the Speedy deletion of the page User:Vintagemusiclabel/sandbox/Stark D? I read all the guidelines and wasn't planning to use Wikipedia as a host page! All idea is to have my Biography and discography like many other artists listed here on the encyclopedia. Wikipedia is like a proof of a public person and would grant me as an artist the opportunity to have my verification badges in all social media and would give the certification of my work for possible investors.

Please undelete my page, it would mean a lot to me and my record label which I was starting to create the page right now.

Hope to hear from you, Kind Regards,

Diego Paulo Jacintho — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vintagemusiclabel (talk • contribs) 01:00, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a soapbox or means of promotion, and if you are truly notable, someone else un-connected to you will create an article. Wikipedia is not the place to generate evidence for verification badges on other sites. Please review also Wikipedia:Notability (music) and Wikipedia:Conflict of interest (creating an article about yourself is strongly discouraged). Furthermore, based on [1], there are username issues with the account, which will necessitate a block. SpencerT•C 14:53, 17 May 2020 (UTC)

Hello Spencer’s I received your request for speedy deletion. I apologize if I broke any rules or guidelines. I do not know how to delete the wiki post... do I leave it to get taken down or can you tell me how to remove it myself. I never meant to upset anyone. Oscarbean (talk) 22:02, 18 May 2020 (UTC)

Tanaza - Deletion page - User:Paul Smith 1970

Hi Spencer, here is Paul Smith 1970. You have recently deleted a page that I've created about the company Tanaza. Is there a way to publish the content of this company without receiving a deletion? What I've written on that page it's simply what Tanaza is and what is its history. I've mentioned also more than 30 resources (including citation and articles from Facebook Engineering Blog, Il Sole 24 ore, Yahoo Finance, and also 2 patents on Google Patents approved by US government!): the sources are really of high-level. Please I ask you to reconsider that page or alternatively suggest me advise to try a re-publishing. In Wikipedia, several companies with less information and less impact in society have been published and accepted: Tanaza has a global impact in the creation of hardware and software wifi disaggregation. It has a partnership with great manufacturing companies such as Linksys and it collaborates with Facebook for several projects of wifi democratization.

Thanks for your answer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paul Smith 1970 (talk • contribs) 08:07, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Re: ITAA

Hello spencer. Once again, the ITAA website sandbox was removed. I still do not understand why. If we hired a wikipedia editor to write, would it be accepted? How so or other professional organizations get their org published? ITAA is the organization for CTRJ which DOES have a wiki page. I just need to understand so that we can do it correctly.

I think you got the tag on before I deleted the page (don't think I saw the tag) haha. SpencerT•C 05:09, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

Why was my page deleted?

Good day, I tried contacting you about the page I created ( Amor Lilman Arteaga) that you erased from my sandbox. I wanted to point out that Amor Lilman Arteaga who had a viral video in 2012 titled “Pull your pants up” and featured then Brooklyn borough President Marty Markowitz is already found on Wikipedia under sagging. My intention of making this page is for Amor Lilman Arteaga to be able to provide his information directly by searching his name. I would also like to point out that General Larry Platt who also went viral for his anti sagging song “Pants on the ground “ can also be found along side Amor Lilman Arteaga on Wikipedia under sagging, yet he has his own Wikipedia under his name sharing his similar story. I respectfully ask you to restore the deleted page in light of the information I’ve provided. I’m open to suggestions on any changes you feel are needed to proceed. Thanks Amorlilman (talk) 21:38, 27 May 2020 (UTC)

Reviewing pages in my userspace

Hi Spencer, could you tell me why you're reviewing pages in my userspace? I'm not asking you to stop, but I'm just curious as to why. Thanks, ◊PRAHLADbalaji (M•T•A•C) This message was left at 21:09, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

They show up as yellow when I'm reviewing recent changes, so when the page is good to go or something created by a trusted user (i.e. not userspace spam), then I mark as reviewed so I know what I have and haven't reviewed when going down through recent changes. Happy to not do that on user subpages for you if there are any concerns. Best, SpencerT•C 21:11, 19 June 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User talk:Zacktweets12

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 User talk:Zacktweets12, 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, group, product, service, person, or point of view 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 "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 deleted 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. Cahk (talk) 07:31, 13 July 2020 (UTC)

Manuel Moroun ITN nom

Thanks for marking it as ready! Unfortunately, there isn't an additional "support" vote in sight 14 hours later. You make the final call. I'm fine either way – just find it puzzling why my ITN noms are being held to higher scrutiny than others. —Bloom6132 (talk) 06:48, 15 July 2020 (UTC)

I don't see consensus to post at this point even though IMO I feel like the article has adequate depth of coverage at this point. However, others may rightfully differ. In many RD noms, I frequently observe and point out resumes in prose format, so if anything other RD noms should be getting higher scrutiny if that is not presently the case. Those issues should also be improved too. Best, SpencerT•C 17:34, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
