Why was Christopher DeJoseph deleted?

edit

He is a writer for WWE and has appeared on television over 4 times. Why would he be deleted? Isn't wikipedia supposed to be an overall encyclopedia? Why not include a currently frequenting character on WWE television? DaHumorist |

Christoper DeJoseph must be re added to wikipedia immediately, has appeared several times as "Big Dick Johnson" on WWE Programming including November 6th edition of Raw, for DX. He must me accounted for.

I'll second this. I came to Wikipedia looking for who this was after seeing him several times only to find the deletion. He is at this point a recurring character in addition to being a member of the WWE creative team. Paladin677 07:15, 7 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

My RfA

edit

Hey Teke,

I just wanted to thank you for your support in my recent request for adminship, which passed unanimously with a final tally of 38/0/0. I appreciate your trust, and will do my best to uphold it. Don't hesitate to let me know if you ever need anything.

And, as a note, one thing about tis username (which I have had for a while elsewhere on the Internet) is that I've seen people accidentaly use just about every permutation of its three lettters. Don't know whether you ever had that experience as TKE, but just thought I'd share a little anecdote while I'm here. :) — TKD::Talk 05:40, 21 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

Canon PowerShot A520

You speedied this article as promotional. I remember the article, it was about the camera and seemed reasonably balanced, or atleast far from 'blatent'. It may have been suitable for deletion, but I don't know about speedying it. When I bought my camera I went there and found usefull information, so it was not entirely unencyclopedic.

I found this on youtube the other day. Some high school kid made a video for the They Might Be Giants song James K. Polk. Check it out. youngamerican (ahoy hoy) 18:28, 27 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

November Esperanza Newsletter

Program Feature: Admin Coaching (needs coaches!)
Admin Coaching needs coaches!!! If you are an administrator, or even a generally experienced user, do consider signing up to be a coach.

Admin Coaching, now being coordinated by HighwayCello, is a program for people who want help learning some of the more subtle aspects of Wikipedia policy and culture. People are matched with experienced users who are willing to offer coaching. The program is designed for people who have figured out the basics of editing articles; they're not newcomers any more, but they might want some help in learning new roles. In this way, Esperanza would help keep hope alive for Wikipedia because we would always be grooming the next generation of admins.

What's New?
The Tutorial Drive is a new Esperanza program! In an effort to make complicated processes on Wikipedia easier for everyone, Esperanza working to create and compile a list of tutorials about processes here on Wikipedia. Consider writing one!
A discussion on how Esperanza relates to the encyclopedia has been started; please add your thoughts.
Many thanks to MiszaBot, courtesy of Misza13, for delivering the newsletter.
  • The list of proposed programs has been updated, with some proposals being archived.
  • There is now a new program: the Tutorial Drive! Consider writing a tutorial on something you are good at doing on Wikipedia.
  • The suggestion of adding a cohesive look to all the Esperanza pages is being considered; join the discussion if you are interested!
  • In order to make a useful interlanguage welcome template, those involved in translation projects will be asked what English Wikipedia policies are most important and confusing to editors coming from other language Wikipedias.
  • A discussion of Esperanza's role in Wikipedia is being held, with all thoughts of all Esperanzians wanted!
  • Shreshth91 informed everyone that he will be leaving the Esperanza council as life is rather busy; his spot will be filled by the runner up from the last election, HighwayCello.
Signed...
Although having the newsletter appear on everyone's userpage is desired, this may not be ideal for everyone. If, in the future, you wish to receive a link to the newsletter, rather than the newsletter itself, you may add yourself to Wikipedia:Esperanza/Newsletter/Opt Out List.

Thanks for advice ...

Teke,

I appreciate your review of my draft article about the Big-8 Management Board. I'm not sure that I know how to get away from the FAQ/"All About Us" tone of the piece. I'm asking among my acquaintances to see whether there is a third-party who would want to revise it. As far as I can tell, I'm pretty definitely disqualified under the Conflict of Interest rule from submitting the article myself.

There are already articles on Usenet and the Big-8 in Wikipedia:

Big-8 (Usenet) has an external link to the Big-8 Management Board. Maybe that's all that is needed or wanted.

Dovico - article deleted ...

edit

Can you please explain why the article on dovico was deleted? The article has relevance as many whitepapers, awards etc. have been written about this company. I was adding them as a simple reference only. As I understand the fact that they are a company, does not warrant exclusion from wikipedia.

This will be linked from this article: Comparison_of_time_tracking_software

Ben Harrison

edit

The only problem is that he was never referred to as Benjamin Harrison VI, and he also had an uncle named Benjamin Harrison VI who was marginally notable. T Rex | talk 02:22, 26 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Red labor

edit

I found this message on my talk page :

Hi there. I deleted an article you created, Red labor, as failing our criteria for speedy deletion, specifically A7 as lack of notability and G11 as promotional for a small group. Please do not recreate the article, but continue to edit! Teke(talk) 03:27, 23 November 2006 (UTC)"

and I object to you making this a speedy delete instead of normal a AfD.

You cited G11 "Blatant advertising"

Pages which exclusively promote a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Note that simply having a company, product, group or service as its subject does not qualify an article for this criterion: an article that is blatant advertising should have inappropriate content as well. If a page has previously gone through deletion process and was not deleted, it should not be speedily deleted under this criterion.

but I don't believe that the article had "inappropriate content" and request that it be recreated so it can go through an AfD review.

Jones Lang LaSalle

edit

Hi! You deleted this article [1], as I understand it for "blatant advertising" (G11). I recovered it via google and am surprised because I really don't see what is so bad about it. It is just describing one of the major real estate companies in the world. I c&p it here so maybe you can reconsider. --Kricket 16:24, 30 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

PS: looked at it again and did a few minor changes, there was bad style in it (posted it under "alternative?" on my talk page. But just deleting an article like this is really overdoing it.

Hello Teke! As you didn't answer for a week I just put it back in (with the changes you can see on my talk page). Talk to me if you have any comments. --Kricket 13:48, 6 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Red Labor on deletion review

edit

An editor has asked for a deletion review of Red Labor. Since you closed the deletion discussion for (or speedy-deleted) this article, you might want to participate in the deletion review. JohnRussell 17:58, 15 December 2006 (UTC).Reply

Hi, I actually REMOVED some vandalism from the Cleo Lemon article (Someone had put tt8matador rules!! or something like that) and you apparently blocked me for it. What gives? DasGreggo 04:42, 26 December 2006 (UTC)DasGreggoReply

I have unprotected an article you protected, Allah, since it's been five weeks. Just a friendly heads-up, happy editing to you :) Teke (talk) 20:25, 30 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
