Shiwe Nongwanya

article about member of the South Africa women's national football team deleted without discussion. Deleting admin attributed G5; however it looks like this and several other articles about members on the team were actually created before user was banned and G5 may not be applicable. Wikipedia inclusion criteria is met according to WP:NFOOTY. -Hmlarson (talk) 22:31, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

 Not done This was created after the original user was banned, only a week ago. You are free to recreate this page yourself. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 22:55, 21 October 2014 (UTC)
The text written by ElSwankoCasa was: "Shiwe Nongwanya is a South African women's footballer and plays as a striker. She plays for Bloemfontein Celtic. (http://www.sasolinsport.com/banyana/player-profiles/shiwe-nongwanya) She represented the South Africa women's national football team at the 2014 African Women's Championship"

@Graeme Bartlett: Thank you for reviewing my request. Would it be possible for you to userfy the article as well as these other ones so I can review and potentially re-publish if inclusion criteria is met?

Template:South Africa women's football squad 2014 African Women's Championship

template related to South Africa women's national football team deleted without discussion. Deleting admin attributed G5; however there appears to be nothing controversial about the template. -Hmlarson (talk) 22:36, 21 October 2014 (UTC)

I don't plan to oppose the restoration of the template, Graeme, but I thought I would mention that I don't agree that G5 was "not strictly applicable". G5 is "Pages created by banned or blocked users in violation of their ban or block, and which have no substantial edits by others". (My emphasis.) There is obviously a judgement to make about what is "substantial", but it is certainly not the case, as you seem to be suggesting, that any other editor having edited the page automatically invalidates G5. In this case, I find it difficult to see adding the words "2014 African Women's Championship" as a substantial edit.

prajyot mahajan

The page is not an autobiography please do let me know what can be done to undelete the page as i can prove that it is not a promotional/autobiography/advertisment. it is just a information about the person named prajyot mahajan -FredrickEllifsen (talk) 06:03, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

@FredrickEllifsen:  Not done. Since the article Prajyot mahajan was created by user Prajyotmahajan (talk) and contained extremely promotional language like "Prajyot's astonishing technique enhances his lyrical interpretations. From the whimsical to the bittersweet, Prajyot brings science and poetry into perfect harmony", it is understandable that it was considered to be self-promotional autobiography. Since you are his manager, you have a Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and should read that guideline carefully. In brief, you should not edit about your client directly, but may submit a draft for consideration by uninvolved users.
As you have a draft page in your userspace at User:FredrickEllifsen/Prajyot Mahajan, you should submit that for review, when it is ready, by clicking the green "Submit" button at the top. Its chances will be improved if you first edit it to make it less promotional by removing "peacock phrases" like "highly unique style", removing gossipy unsourced material and making sure that all claims are verified from reliable sources. JohnCD (talk) 10:07, 22 October 2014 (UTC)

Star Wars: Jedi Academy (book)

It is turned into a redirect page and I want you guys to change it back into an article. I spent a long time to make that article so please change it back. -Awesomeninja1589 (talk) 22:56, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

@Awesomeninja1589:  Not done. The page you wrote was made into a redirect in preference to deleting it, but it would not have been an acceptable article, because (a) it gave no indication that the book is notable enough to have an article - Wikipedia is quite selective about subjects, and not every book deserves an article, see WP:Notability (books); and (b) it was almost entirely plot summary. An article about a book needs more than that, see WP:NOTPLOT #1. Don't be discouraged, but read WP:WAF for advice about writing acceptable book articles. If you're not happy about this, discuss it with user Randykitty (talk) who made the redirect. JohnCD (talk) 09:23, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

Briggsdale, Columbus, Ohio

Article Deleted in 2011 because it was a small article and deemed 'Unremarkable;' Doesn't appear it was deleted for any other reason than it was a small article. Requesting the Article to be restored for my students because I'm an instructor for a course: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education_Program:Ohio_State_University/City_and_Regional_Planning_(Fall_2014) and have students selected Briggsdale for their course project. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kenitzer.1 (talk • contribs) 11:47, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

@Kenitzer.1: checkY Restored to draft. This article was deleted after a discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Briggsdale, Columbus, Ohio, so should not be undeleted here; but I have restored it into the Draft namespace at Draft:Briggsdale, Columbus, Ohio, where your students can work on it. Before returning it to the main encyclopedia, please consult the administrator who closed the discussion, user Tone (talk), who may decide that it should go through another WP:AFD discussion.
The reason for deletion was not that the article was short, but that it gave no references to show that Briggsdale met Wikipedia's inclusion criterion, WP:Notability, which looks for evidence of "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject."
The result of previous discussions on articles like this is summed up at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Common outcomes:
  • Cities and villages anywhere in the world are generally kept, regardless of size or length of existence, as long as that existence can be verified through a reliable source. This usually also applies to any other area that has a legally recognized government, such as counties, parishes and municipalities.
  • Larger neighborhoods are usually kept if their names are found to have verifiable widespread usage.
  • Smaller suburbs are generally merged, being listed under the primary city article, except when they consist of legally separate municipalities or communes (e.g., having their own governments).
The neighbourhood is presently covered at Neighborhoods in Columbus, Ohio#Briggsdale. Whether a stand-alone article can be justified will depend on how much coverage you can find. That will also help to meet the WP:Verifiability requirement. WP:WikiProject Ohio is a group of users interested in this area, where your students may be able to get help and advice.

Dr. Salman M.A. Salman

The article was deleted because it lacked sufficient copyright. I would like to recover the page and contents in order to edit the copyrights which were taken from the website which I own, www.salmanmasalman.org.

This is my first time working on wikipedia so I thought that saving it would keep the content in draft before before going for final editing and publication. Could someone also please explain how I can now re-edit this page and have it edited by WP editors before going live?

thanks sarah -Sarsalman (talk) 16:45, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

@Sarsalman: Please read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest, because you clearly have one regarding this subject. To answer your other points:
There is no way we can restore copyrighted material. The page content can be emailed to you, but there isn't really any point to that if it came from a public website to begin with. To make it acceptable for use on Wikipedia, the copyright holder would need to put a notice (like a footer) on the web page saying that the information is released to the public domain, or released under an acceptable free license. Or, the copyright holder would need to use the template at WP:CONSENT to send an official permission statement to the Wikimedia Foundation, from a verifiable address.
As to your final question, because you have a conflict of interest, your best venue for submitting articles is Wikipedia:Articles for creation. There, neutral editors will review your submission prior to accepting it for publication on Wikipedia. This may involve multiple submit-reject rounds before it is accepted. To ensure acceptance, the article must be written in a neutral manner and conform to the requirements outlined in Wikipedia:Golden rule.
Based on the above, the request for restoration is no Declined. Thank you for your understanding. ~Amatulić (talk) 17:05, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

Many thanks for your response. If I re-write the article content and include a copyright holder (since the information is coming from the website which I own) could I then resubmit for approval/editing by you guys?

thanksSarsalman (talk) 18:00, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

@Sarsalman: yes, you can, but you may find it harder than you think, because Wikipedia is not intended as a place like Facebook or LinkedIn for people to write about themselves, and an encyclopedia article is a different thing from a CV. Start by reading Wikipedia:Autobiography, and note in particular that if an article about you is accepted, you will not own it or be able to insist on your preferred version: others can and will edit it. If you want a page about yourself that you can control, Wikipedia is not the site for you.
The inclusion criteria are stated at Wikipedia:Notability, WP:Notability (people) and WP:Notability (academics). WP:Donating copyright materials explains how to make the necessary copyright release for any material from your own website that you want to use.
In line with the WP:Conflict of interest guideline, you should not post an article directly, but submit it by the WP:Articles for creation process, for an uninvolved user to review. Read WP:Your first article and WP:Writing better articles for advice.
One further note: as a Wikipedia contributor you have a "User page" at User:Sarsalman, but that is not intended for extended biographical material; its use is explained at WP:NOTWEBHOST and WP:User pages. Regards, JohnCD (talk) 19:21, 23 October 2014 (UTC)
Um, slight correction.... "If I re-write the article content and include a copyright holder" -- no, you can't include a copyright holder in any Wikipedia article, because you irrevokably give up any claim for anything you write on Wikipedia. If you want to copy material from a web site you own, you must follow the procedure I described above: either put a notice on your web site that the particular page being copied is in the public domain or releasable under an acceptable free license, or write to OTRS with a legal notification of release under an acceptable free license. Those are your only options for copying material from elsewhere to Wikipedia. For your own protection, we can't rely on assurances from random Wikipedia accounts that happen to have a similar name. ~Amatulić (talk) 22:21, 23 October 2014 (UTC)

ok that makes sense, thanks Sarsalman (talk) 13:04, 24 October 2014 (UTC) Sorry, one last question, where on the page would i post the notice? is there anywhere in particular on the page where it should be posted? top? under references? under its own heading? thanks Sarsalman (talk) 13:06, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

The release notice should not be on the Wikipedia page, but on the source website, thus making it clear that the actual owner of the site is granting the release. It would typically be at the head or foot of the page, like a copyright notice, but the actual placing is not important. The procedure is explained, and a form of words suggested, at WP:Donating copyrighted materials.
There is useful advice on writing biographical articles at Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography#Tips for writing biographies and at User:Randykitty/DGG's advice for writing bios. JohnCD (talk) 13:48, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

GitLab

GitLab is the only product/service listed in Comparison of open-source software hosting facilities which doesn't have it's own article and is also significantly more common than others on the list and was mentioned in Chicago Tribune; I don't see why it shouldnt qualify too -Diskurs (talk) 14:23, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

I, oo64eva, request the undeletion of this Articles for creation submission deleted under CSD A7. GitLab is widely used open-source software for using Git collaboratively. GitLab is used by over 100,000 organizations and hundreds of software developers have voluntarily committed code to the project. It is mentioned in over a dozen other Wikipedia articles. GitLab is notable both for its aid in developing software, but for its example of successful open-source project management. -— oo64eva (Alex) (U | T | C) @ 15:47, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

There is no AFC submission for GitLab, and it was not deleted by WP:CSD#A7.
Not done - this Requests for Undeletion process is only for articles that were deleted uncontroversially, and does not apply to articles deleted after a deletion discussion. Since the article you are here about was deleted after a discussion took place at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/GitLab, it cannot be undeleted through this process. However, if you believe that the outcome of the discussion did not reflect the consensus of the participants, or that significant new information has come to light since the article was deleted, you may contact the administrator who closed the discussion, user Mark Arsten (talk · contribs). After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. ~Amatulić (talk) 17:49, 20 October 2014 (UTC)

@Oo64eva: it would look like this:
  • Read WP:Notability and WP:Notability (summary)
  • Identify independent reliable sources discussing GitLab
  • Contact the administrator who closed the deletion discussion, user Mark Arsten (talk), linking your sources, and ask him to restore the article so that you can add references. Alternatively, he may agree to "userfy" the article - move into a sub-page in your user space where you can work on it.
  • If he is happy with the result, he will restore it; if not, you can appeal at WP:Deletion review.

The article was deleted under speedy deletion because page seems to be unambiguous advertising. But the page should be reinstated because it is about a public figure and TV host -Ajlawren (talk) 03:04, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Note: The page was speedily-deleted under criterion G11. Pages deleted under that criterion are generally not undeleted because they require complete rewrites to be viable encyclopedia articles or because they violate our biographical or fair-use policies. Being an advert has nothing to do with what the article is about; the issue is with the tone of the writing (overly positive).

Rosemount International School (formerly Rosemount Kindergarten)

One article I wrote was removed for being “promotional”.

I do not agree, however I have a positive view of the company I wrote the article about and perhaps some found it to be too cheerful. I would be willing to change the article, to make less “promotional” however it was removed without giving me a chance.

If you read other articles of private schools in Singapore they are all written in a similar way, it is hard to describe a high quality school accurately without it at the same time sounding promotional. That being said I will take the Briticism to heart and change the content so that it is more balanced.

I wrote the article because I used to be employed at the school. Friends and families back home would search for it, and complained that there is little information of the school online. I thought I would change that I and therefore wrote an article describing the school, it's history and what it offers.

It is one of the oldest private schools/kindergartens in Singapore, and it makes sense that there is an article on it. I was sad to see it has been removed. The only thing I can think of is that one of it’s competitors marketing team have reported it. A lot of new schools has been opening in Singapore in later years and some have a rather aggressive online marketing strategy as a way to push into the market. It is sad to see that they get priority on Wikipedia over a small company that does not have a marketing team.

The article was legitimate. I was not paid to write it and I no longer work for the company. I did it because I love the school and I could not believe that there was not already a Wikipedia article on it!

I am no expert user of Wikipedia, I do not know how to retrieve my old draft. Can you please send it to me so that I can make some changes and put it back up?

I appreciate your help! -Idunn Gro (talk) 03:12, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Freefall (webcomic) (second request for undeletion)

The initial request for undeletion was submitted on October 3. The ensuing discussion can be seen here. Essentially, it was suggested I discuss this with the admin who initiated the original deletion of the article in question. I posted the request to his page, and this request can be seen here. There has been no response in over three weeks, which I am not criticizing; we all have our own reasons for not keeping up with Wikipedia. Nonetheless, I feel this is sufficient time to move forward and request that this process be forwarded to the next stage, bypassing Stifle's authorization and opening an actual discussion on undeleting the Wikipedia article Freefall (webcomic). I'm placing this back into contention for undeletion one more time, using this as my justification:

"If you are not a fan of Freefall you ought to be. Alas, it really will involve some time because it is a serial story, and the current panels are shocking — that is, they have a total surprise that I do not think many readers saw coming...The story is well developed and very logically constructed. I’d like to see it win a Hugo. It’s really good." -- Dr. Jerry Pournelle, March 2, 2014, http://www.jerrypournelle.com/chaosmanor/forced-sale-of-crimea-learning-math-prince-igor-and-the-hearing-log-continues/

-Modemac (talk) 17:54, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

Note: The page was deleted as a result of a deletion debate. Admins will not undelete pages that were deleted with discussion here; go to WP:Deletion review instead. The proper place to contest this if discussing with the deleting admin is fruitless is WP:Deletion review, as you were likely told when it was declined here last time. We will not unilaterally overturn XfD discussions here. —Jeremy v^_^v Bori! 18:43, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
