American International School of Vienna

supposed copyright infringement is not accurate - the page referenced http://newkai.com/reviews/ais/ does not exist. If there is anyhting copyrighted on the page we will remove it immediately once we can see the page. This is a K-12 school page and is subject to spurious edits from students -194.166.187.156 (talk) 12:20, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

  •  Not done It's clear based on a simple Google search that the referenced page certainly did exist, and thus the claims of copyright violation are valid - even though the source has now been moved. We cannot under any circumstances undelete copyright violations. A quick read of the article does not show me any form of notability or even reliable sources, so any future version of the article must have those. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 12:29, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Marc Pattison

musician has noteworthy fame and accomplishments, including hundreds of placements in television and cable media, and still active, in Futures End, who also have a wiki page -66.87.119.5 (talk) 23:25, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Patchy1 (talk), who proposed it, and who may choose to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days to which you would be welcome to contribute. The article needs references to reliable sources, to verify what it says and to establish notability, see WP:MUSICBIO. JohnCD (talk) 15:49, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Jono Lester

Deletion was based on "Expired PROD, concern was: unsourced BLP". This page is valid however perhaps sources were not sufficient or substantiated. Please refer to source 'Official Website of Jono Lester' (http://www.jonolester.com), in particular "Career", regarding the validity of Jono Lester as a professional sportsperson / auto racing driver. Reinstatement of this page would be much appreciated for search engine and general informative purposes. Thank you. -101.98.166.164 (talk) 12:14, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Not done - this article has not been restored because it does not appear to meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles about people. In general, Wikipedia considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Articles concerning people will be deleted on sight if they are considered to be unambiguous advertising or promotion, or if they do not contain a credible assertion of the significance of the subject. Note that their own website is not a reliable source for the purpose of a biography article on Wikipedia (✉→BWilkins←✎) 12:54, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Cupcake Digital

Autism therapy -Michael William Sweeney 11:30, 26 February 2013 (UTC)


I am the father of an Autistic child and Cupcake Digital's stories work very well with our population of kids. I did not want to identify myself or my son as being part of the Autism world, but now I will in order to write a more "notable" page. ~~MikeSweeneyMV~~

  • As it stands the article had no claims of importance. It may be important to you, or perhaps you know where other independent people have written about it. If that is the case I would suggest that you have a userspace draft to develop it. Let me know if you want this restored as a userspace draft. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:16, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

This is just wrong. Sorry if anyone is upset by my not posting this in the right place, but the article should not be deleted. The author worked very hard on it and added substantial image contributions. Really the reasoning behind all of this is ridiculous. Can someone please look at this? I cannot believe that this page was deleted.24.0.133.234 (talk) 23:41, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

And in case any kind person does take a look at this, look at how many pages are LINKED to this deleted page! by clicking the link thingy. I'm just astounded by this.24.0.133.234 (talk) 23:45, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

A new article was created that should meet concerns at AfD. Some of the content of the new article is based on old content deleted by the AfD and those deleted revisions should be restored to maintain the required attribution history. -Geraldo Perez (talk) 21:46, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

 Done - I have merged the histories, but you need to check with Courcelles (talk), the closing admin, whether he agrees you have overcome the reasons that made the AfD decide delete, or whether he would like it to go through DRV. JohnCD (talk) 21:57, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
He said no need for DRV. Geraldo Perez (talk) 16:33, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
Fine. It might be a good idea to put a link to that on the article talk page, to prevent it being tagged WP:CSD#G4. JohnCD (talk) 12:23, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

File:School crest.jpg

OTRS permission has been received. -Kevin Rutherford (talk) 04:32, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

 Done. Please up date the file details. I do not see why this is needed, though, because there is already File:Crest for The Schilling School for Gifted Children.jpg on Commons, which is a slightly larger version of the same crest, and is used in the school's article. JohnCD (talk) 16:00, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
I just realized it is a duplicate, but I was unable to see it based on the information given to me over OTRS. If you want to go ahead and delete it and migrate the OTRS template, go ahead. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 18:25, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Ian Kirkby

I would like this article userfied at User:The C of E/kirk to see if there is anything worth retrieving from it and to see if I could write a better article than the one that was deleted. - The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 18:32, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

Hmmm, it was deleted via AfD (so can not be undeleted here anyway), and consisted essentially of one line telling us when and where the actor was born, and a list of his televison and film appearances. No sources except ImDB Lectonar (talk) 20:07, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
I could use that info, it might be helpful. I'm not asking for it to be undeleted, just for what was on the page to be userfied so that I can tinker with it to see if the page could be brought back with better sourcing. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 20:18, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Done Userfied as requested; sorry, but I had to delete your oneliner already there to make the move. Lectonar (talk) 20:24, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Thanks, I understand, there wasn't much in that oneliner that couldn't be redone anyway but there is definitely something that can be retrieved here. Just needs a rewrite and reffing. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 20:27, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
Just one more thing: before moving this to mainspace, talk to the deleting admin, Rlendog if he is fine with that. Lectonar (talk) 20:30, 5 March 2013 (UTC)

— Preceding unsigned comment added by Gon266 (talk • contribs) 07:18, 7 March 2013

In order to have a Wikipedia article a "micronation", or any subject, must have WP:Notability. That is not a matter of saying so but has to be demonstrated by references showing "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject." See WP:ANS for what that means.

List of Minute to Win It challenges

reasoning -Minutetowinitman (talk) 02:56, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

 Not done. This will not be restored, because it was deleted after a deletion discussion at WP:Articles for deletion/List of Minute to Win It challenges, but I will email you a copy if you enable email on your account. Instructions for how to do that on your talk page. JohnCD (talk) 10:59, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Lock key

The article was prodded for not being "a real term", but it's used at Template:Keyboard keys as well as three articles that link to it, so it's a likely search term. I want its history restored to determine if a broad concept article can be written, or to turn it into a disambiguation page. -Diego (talk) 12:55, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. The present article is neither one thing nor the other. A DAB page looks the better option to me, as there are detailed articles about the individual keys, but maybe you can find material for a concept article. JohnCD (talk) 15:06, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Lighthouse Library/ECCRC

reasoning - Lighthouse Library/ECCRC was deleted and was said by the editor to be nonsensical. Lighthouse Library was featured in Hatteberg's People on KAKE TV. Library on Hatteberg's People, KAKE TV, Wichita, Kansas Article from newschannel 10, KAKE TV web page: Story by Larry Hatteberg, KAKE TV, Wichita, KS Larry Hatteberg,KAKE TV, Wichita, KS.

The library has over 21,000 books in its collection. It was built by volunteer labor. A thrift store and a rental cabin on the site are the sustaining projects for the library. Over 300 volunteers built the library. 64.71.115.234 (talk) 13:48, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Safiel (talk), who proposed it, and who may choose to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days, to which you would be welcome to contribute. The reason for proposing deletion was not that the subject was nonsensical, but that it did not appear to be "notable", Wikipedia's criterion for inclusion, which requires references to show "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject" - see also WP:ANS. I have added the kake.com reference you give here, but it needs more. Youtube is not considered a reliable source. JohnCD (talk) 15:21, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Justin Wilkes

reasoning -92.19.150.2 (talk) 18:21, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

  • Not done - As announced at the top of the page, 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 at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Justin Wilkes, 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. After you do so, if your concerns are not addressed and you still seek undeletion, a request may be made at deletion review. (✉→BWilkins←✎) 22:18, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Cold Meat Industry

This page should contain information about an small, obscure, but influential record label. It appears to have been deleted without contest using the criteria of a band. It was also cited that there were no reliable third party sources, I am not entirely sure what would qualify as a reliable third party source for a record label that services a small global audience that is not a website. Searching Wikipedia for this text string will show a list of bands associated with this label. -64.121.230.24 (talk) 12:34, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. It is, however, severely lacking in sources, and would probably not survive an AFD. Yunshui 雲‍水 12:43, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

BMW 2 Series

reasoning -31.126.109.193 (talk) 01:39, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

i didn't write the page, neither have i read it. However the PROD system is likely to have been misused in this case, as BMW are re-organising the bottom end of their range; with the introduction of FWD models and RWD models with the 1 and 2 series monikers in the near future. I would have to read the deleted article and do some research to verify . The use of CRYSTAL may then be premature and 7 days an unrealistic timeframe before a deletion takes place. Certainly there is a page missing now. Sorry I was just passing through, you have your systems; but why would you not delete the offending crystal gazing part of the page rather than the whole page? doesn't make much sense to me.

Done - as a contested proposed deletion, the article has been restored on request. I will notify user Darkwind (talk), who proposed it, and who may choose to nominate it at WP:Articles for deletion, which would start a debate lasting seven days, to which you would be welcome to contribute. Five months have gone by, so maybe there are now reliable sources, but as you can see, the whole thing is WP:CRYSTAL with no sources at all. Wikipedia doesn't do rumours, WP:Verifiability is a fundamental policy. JohnCD (talk) 10:14, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Beverly Hills Chairs

I would like to retrieve my article so that I can rewrite it to the standards that wikipedia allows to have published -RachelLauren124 (talk) 21:24, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

 Not done. That was far too promotional, a blatant advertisement: "fast increasing success... legendary... luxurious seating at affordable prices... wide variety of luxurious CEO chairs... " You need to start with a clean sheet and write for Wikipedia, not for the company, no glowing adjectives, just plain facts cited to reliable sources, and references to significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources to establish notability. Read WP:Your first article, and if you are connected with the company, read WP:COI and WP:BESTCOI. JohnCD (talk) 12:52, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aravamu

Had added the reference for this article to address the concern of deletion -Pon.ramesh.k (talk) 05:35, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

John B. Kimble

The article was removed contrary to wikipedia guidelines. There have been numerous news sources that made this subject notable such as the New York Times, Washington Post, Today Show, Daily Show, etc and the deletion review seemed to be only by a certain group of people that may have been from a certain clique or group that did not act according to wikipedia consensus review guidelines or notability principles. Therefore, I am requesting the previous decision vacated. -Badpuppy99 (talk) 20:52, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

  • CommentFrom reading wikipedia consensus on wikipedia and the comments from the alleged "editors" it does appear that a "clique" from England may have existed to remove the article. Was the article notable? Yes. Were some users single purpose accounts? Yes. Does it matter in an argument of facts? No. What matters is right and wrong and the deletion was wrong. I supposed that I have to make time and make my time available to remove articles that truly are not of notable people and see what happens on them. But I do appreciate your time in reviewing this matter even thouhg it does appear that there is nefarious actions by some wild and crazy deleters. Badpuppy99 (talk) 02:39, 1 March 2013 (UTC).
  • Comment I have argued for years that in a 2-party system the candidate of a major party who loses in the election for a national level office such as Representative in Congress can and should be presumed to have enough sources available, and be an automatic keep. This was the situation here; I continue to think so--the difference in importance is minor and it would add only a few hundred articles per year. However, consensus has consistently been against me; I did not comment in the AfD1, AfD2, or even the deletion review, because I consider this hopeless for the present, though I may try again in 2 or 3 years. I suggest the editor realize that sometimes a person can be right and all the world wrong, and yet nothing can be done about it. Of course, he could always actually win an election. or take up one of the activities where WP seems to consider everyone notable. DGG ( talk ) 05:29, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
  • I have left Badpuppy a warning about the ad hom attacks and slurs in their statements. It would be nice as a mark of good faith for them to redact their commentary to remove the personal attacks. Spartaz Humbug! 07:50, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
  • I don't think anyone is attacking anyone or making slurs etc except to say the truth about what appears to be a move that was not done properly and appears to be possible skulldrudgery by some editors who listed that they/he is from London. When I looked at the 2011 dlr it showed that a man from London was the original nominator for deletion and that he used two names to post and he was the same man. That combined with the wikipedia summary on consensus review which states that most deletions are carried out by a "few" editors makes it seem that this article was removed improperly. I don't think badpuppy has ill will towards anyone if his comments were misconstrued but from what he wrote it does appear to be accurate or give the impression of being accurate in that if the editor from 2011 has changed his name and written the same arguments again it looks strange to most of us.. I will request the article to be replaced again in a few days and see what happens then. Thanks for making time for Wikipedia. From what I read the article still meets general notability guidelines and should be replaced 2001:558:6020:192:78BE:D5:281D:41AA (talk) 05:00, 3 March 2013 (UTC)2001:558:6020:192:78BE:D5:281D:41AA (talk) 05:32, 2 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Hello, so can different users request undeletion or what is the next appeal process? I read the article and find it to be notable and I believe the article deletion was contrary to consensus guidelines. 204.14.79.70 (talk) 05:30, 3 March 2013 (UTC)
The place to appeal is WP:Deletion review, but if you have no further arguments except WP:ILIKEIT and allegations that many experienced Wikipedia users have repeatedly given their opinion that this is not notable only because of "possible skulldrudgery" by "a certain clique or group" and "nefarious actions by some wild and crazy deleters" you will not get far. Also, be aware that there are technical means to tell whether edits purporting to come from different users or IPs are in fact from the same person. JohnCD (talk) 16:15, 4 March 2013 (UTC)
  • What people are talking about is that JZG and Guy were the admin/editor that was the main people involved in the dlr of 2011 and the names could be the same person again. There is sufficient notability for the article to be kept other that just liking it. To me having only three so called "senior members" of wikipedia claiming to remove the article does not make a consensus. Look at all the news outlets that covered the subject, New York times, Washington Post, BBC, Today Show, Hard Copy etc. It is one thing to be collegiate but bnot giving credit to arguments that have merit is just not kosher.2001:558:6020:192:78BE:D5:281D:41AA (talk) 03:21, 5 March 2013 (UTC)
  • Not done and will not be done Period. The fact that you're having discussion proves that this board is not the correct place - this board is for uncontrovertial undeletions only.

John B. Kimble

This article in my opinion was deleted contrary to Wikipedia guidelines and the deletion did not have a consensus. The subject was notable because of his exploits running for office which gave him nationwide coverage and even overseas coverage. In 1996 he volunteered to pose for Playgirl magazine to raise money and this caused quite a stir. In 2000 in he had his opponent's wife as his campaugn manager and this caused even more of a stir. They also had signs and a radio message talking about the opponent leaving his wife for a woman of a different race. The man was very provocative and notable becuse of these exploits. Sometimes notability is different for people running for office and this is an exception to a politician article because of the man's exploits and provocative nature. The article should be replaced. - 68.50.111.217 (talk) 11:33, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

Joe Swan is a local politician and has received several awards including the 1867-1992 medal from the provincial government and the Queen Elizabeth gold jubilee award in 2012. He also received a volunteer award from the United Nations He was the chairperson who build the Budweiser Gardens in London, and was the chair or vice-chair associated with re-building our local market and many libraries. He moved out of his home, so that it could become the first aids hospice in London , when they could not get anyone else to rent to them. He has made significant contributions to our local community - and continues to do so. Swan is currently the Executive Director of Orchestra London - and has just received approval to begin to build a new concert hall for the orchestra. I think he passes the notible criteria.

Out of process speedy deletion of user talk page. See discussion here[1] for recent confirmation of the principle that user talk pages are not subject to speedy deletion by user request.

Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 03:38, 7 March 2013 (UTC) -Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 03:38, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

This was an WP:RTV deletion, done by me in my capacity as a bureaucrat. The RTV policy at the time was looser than it is now regarding user talk page deletion. Even now, it gives bureaucrats a mandate to delete on occasion. Either way, the proper way for this to be discussed is, as spelled out in the current policy, at DRV, but I would recommend that unless there is a pressing need for material deleted four years ago and not missed since to be brought back, doing so is not beneficial to the RTVd user and even opening the DRV is heading into Streisand effect territory. --Dweller (talk) 11:11, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

Just to note that the not missed since statement is inaccurate, since I objected to User:Dweller at the ime (roughly) of the initial deletion. Allowing the talk page to remain deleted merely allows the damage done by the resigned admin to remain place while concealing the criticism of their damaging actions. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 14:14, 10 March 2013 (UTC)
"pressing need for material deleted four years ago and not missed since" -- the missing material appears to now be missed. you have every right to hold strong personal feelings about the rtv, but unless there is some valid reason for maintaining "privacy" (because of something specific on or about the user's talkpage?), transparency & openness of the record is more important. & one is left wondering about the reasons why you would resist undeletion of something as unimportant as you have claimed this item is? (i.e.: you are in danger of generating the "streisand effect" you cite, by your own actions). for that matter, why would a non-controversial rtv *talk-page deletion require attention in your capacity as a "bureaucrat"? *(my understanding, upon reading the relevant help info is that a "bureaucrat" is only needed to do the official-rename (-vanished); the rest of the work being admin-level?) o__0 respectfully, Lx 121 (talk) 22:33, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
in case the point was unclear in the above, i favour undeletion; for whatever that's worth, in this process. the cited reasons by the requesting user (hasty deletion process & usefulness for citation) seem perfectly valid (which is what i meant re: transparency & openness of the record) Lx 121 (talk) 22:42, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

File:Temisquare.jpg

This photo was used in an article that was recently restored. The photo seems to have been deleted after the article was restored: I think I saw it after the restoration but I'm not certain.

Although the restored article is in AfD, I've merged its text into Temiskaming Shores and it would be nice to have the photo too. The photo was on Wikipedia for over six years and doesn't show any people.

Its deletion was requested for the reason "Orphaned, used in a now deleted article on en.wikipedia. no foreseeable use" but I'd like to use it in another article.

Hello! I am an artist who has worked with slate for over a decade. I want to share with the public that slate can be used as a material for art. On the Wiki page, I have added other uses for slate, "as a material for art," and this was deleted. I included an image of one of my slate relief carvings as an example of art and this was also deleted. I believe my entry is expanding the knowledge base regarding the many uses of slate in today's contemporary world. Not many people today are using slate for relief carving and because this is unique I think my reference and image will be of interest to your readers. -Kofurlani (talk) 16:18, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Not done I have looked at the deleted piece from AFC; let me quote a comment of the last reviewer: "This is a corporate promotional piece. The Youtube videos are blatant corporate hype. This has been declined by three other editors for good reason. The amendments to this article have not addressed the underlying issue, it is not an encyclopedic article.It is full of peacock phrases. The use of exclaimation marks shows how far this is from a neutral tone that is required by an encyclopedic article. The youtube videos are patently crass corporate hype. Is there any redeeming merit? Perhaps it can be cleaned up but the author will have to carefully consider the Wikipedia policies, format and purposes. It is not the role of Wikipedia to be a forum for corproate(sic!) promotion". I agree with this evaluation wholeheartedly. Lectonar (talk) 10:48, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

I'll reply here rather than on my talk page to keep everything centralised.
The article lacked any references which actually said what the article claimed - a photo of the two together and a passing mention that they collaborated. One member of the two people quoted in the article emailed OTRS pointing out that the duet is nowhere near notable enough (as a duet) to be included in Wikipedia, as they have barely collaborated together. I agreed, and thought that it was a misrepresentation to allow the article to stand. Per their request, I deleted the article for the pair. I won't be undoing it and will be deleting any recreations. I also strongly agree with the block for the username, although I'd argue that the account could have been blocked on promotion/'unapproved and unverified representation of a public figure' grounds anyways.

The reason for deleting Word windowism is that it is about a club or organization and that it does not state why it is important, but in-fact it is a subculture-a scientific concept of the culture the popular world calls outcasts, and it is also a very large subculture found everywhere across the entire USA but was founded in Austin.
