Detroit Focus Quarterly

Hello -- thanks for leaving a message. First, let me remind you to please sign all messages with your Wikipedia username by typing four tildes in a row ~~~~. Otherwise a person has to look back through the history of their talk page to see who to answer. Okay, formalities out of the way, as to your concern over the deletion of DFQ. Wikipedia works through consensus in all decisions, and the consensus of editors who voted whether or not to delete DFQ was unanimous to delete. It was not, you see, my decision; all I did was carry out the will of the community in physically deleting the page. Even if you had voted to keep the article, your vote would not have been enough to sway the result because otherwise it was unanimous. I hope this makes sense. Thanks. · Katefan0^(scribble) 15:07, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

On your points -- you're right, in some ways Wikipedia is not a democray, and in cases where there is no apparent consensus articles nominated for deletion may be kept, since generally Wikipedia errs on the side of keeping where there is a question. But in the case of this article, there was no question, no quibbling, no equivocation; the vote, in all cases, was to delete, the voters feeling that there was no chance for an article on this entity to ever have encyclopedic merit. I don't say that to be harsh as it's clear you're of a different opinion, I am only summarizing the fact of the matter. As for your entreaty about not having been notified that the article was up for deletion -- with all due respect, that is what watchlists are for. When an article is on your watchlist, it's flagged when changed, and it would've been easy to have seen that it was nominated for deletion. It is unreasonable to expect someone to notify you -- beyond the watchlist, which is what that feature is expressly for -- every time someone changed an article, or, yes, even nominated it for deletion. That you were not logging on often enough to see the deletion notice, or weren't checking your watchlist, is unfortunate but is noone else's fault. Continuing to try to convince me that DFQ is a worthy article is fairly fruitless; I have no special power in this instance, save to help you understand Wikipedia's policies. I'm very sorry you got caught off guard. You should know that you are not preluded from re-creating the article at a later date, PROVIDED it is significantly different and significantly expanded from the first version. If it is not, and instead is significantly the similar to the article that was deleted, it may be deleted on sight by any administrator. Best of luck · Katefan0^(scribble) 15:41, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I will not reverse the deletion; the community's consensus was unambiguously unanimous that it should have been deleted. There has been some discussion of other means of notifying people of various changes to articles, but none have borne fruit. You might like to visit Wikipedia:Village pump (policy) to discuss those sorts of issues further. Thanks. · Katefan0^(scribble) 16:31, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You can request undeletion at Wikipedia:Votes for undeletion. However I must caution you that the VFU process is intended to be deliberative only of whether the process of deleting an article was proper, not for judging whether content itself was encyclopedia-worthy. Good luck · Katefan0^(scribble) 16:55, 2 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Criteria for inclusion

Hi/hei there - you've expended a lot of work on articles, but I am concerned that a number of them are about subjects who simply may not meet the generally accepted guidelines for inclusion. (You can find these at WP:BIO). The guidelines agree that inclusion should cover: painters, sculptors, architects, engineers, and other professionals whose work is recognized as exceptional and likely to become a part of the enduring historical record of that field

Those articles which document or relate closely to your personal exploration of arts and culture probably belong on your own personal website rather than on Wikipedia. Humansdorpie 15:06, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your reply. I am sorry if you felt patronised by my message above - that was not my intention. I agree with you that there is a need for emergent, often regional, artists to be criticised and documented. However, I don't agree that Wikipedia is the place to do it. Regards, Humansdorpie 15:58, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks for your message. With the greatest respect, it might be helpful for you to reconsider what you are trying to accomplish. There is an important official policy of long standing that Wikipedia is not a place to publish your own research, thoughts or critical analyses, and I repeat that articles which document or relate closely to your personal exploration of arts and culture probably belong on your personal website rather than on Wikipedia. On a related matter, don't forget that the deletion process involves not only the three or four people who actively vote to delete a nominated article; it also includes the people (twenty individuals? Fifty? 100?) who view the nomination for an article and decide not to vote to keep it. Regards, Humansdorpie 10:23, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Gretchen Kramp

I nominated an article that you created, Gretchen Kramp, for deletion. If you think that the article is salvagable, or that I'm mistaken, please comment on its talk page. Please see the Guide to deletion and proposed deletion guidelines if you have any questions about Wikipedia's deletion process. --Thatcher131 03:33, 7 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Water Works Theatre Company

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Water Works Theatre Company, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria. — Swpb ^{talk contribs} 05:37, 8 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

various articles

Ive seen your comments at AfD, and I in general agree very much, and I appreciate your persistence. But I do have a suggestion. I've got a similar problem with science or humanities researcher's articles getting deleted, which is mainly why Im there. They tend to write too much, or too little, and don't pay much attention to the way the WP style is. Some of them I can coax into adequate attention, but often I just take one or two a week and simply rewrite them to the accepted style with the accepted type of documentation. It looks like many of the artists--visual artists and classical musicians alike--do something similar. They write one long paragraph the way hey would write it for a bio at a show or performance, and actively resist putting in straightforward links to reviews or catalogs. They'll link to the MOMA home page, when they could have linked to their artwork. You might want to do similarly. I've found it's easier and more rewarding than defending them at AfD.

Walk and Squawk Performance Project

Walk and Squawk Performance Project has been proposed for deletion. An editor felt this organization or company might not yet be notable enough for an article. Please review Wikipedia:Notability (organizations and companies) for the relevant guidelines. If you can improve the article to address these concerns, please do so.

If no one objects to the deletion within five days by removing the prod notice, the article may be deleted without further discussion. If you remove the prod notice, the deletion process will stop, but if an editor is still not satisfied that the article meets Wikipedia guidelines, it may be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion for consensus.

Image copyright problem with Image:Charles McGee2007.JPG

Image Copyright problem

Thank you for uploading Image:Charles McGee2007.JPG. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page. STBotI (talk) 19:55, 5 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

AfD nomination of Rosetta Pebble

An editor has nominated Rosetta Pebble, an article on which you have worked or that you created, for deletion.

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.

File permission problem with File:Inzero johnny.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Inzero johnny.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ronhjones ^(Talk) 21:56, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
