Slovenly is a word I find myself using quite a bit at the moment. Slovenly is what I think of anybody who leaves a message here about an article and fails to provide a wikilink to the article. How do you expect me to read the article if you don't link to it?
I reserve the right to ignore any message which does not provide links where appropriate or has not been signed with ~~~~. Even if the article has been deleted, you should still link to it.
And if that sounds like a grumpy old man, it's because I am ...

iON Manufacturing page
Hi Roger, Thank you for taking the time to carefully review the content of the iON Manufacturing Solution page. I understand your concern on the advertorial language and would like to meet all the wiki guidelines. We put our best foot forward to give a neutral picture of the Cloud service offering provided by iON for the SMB verticals. As best practice, have also reviewed the SAP ERP page. Kindly put the page back online (un-delete) and mark the sections you feel should be re-written and our content writer will follow the prescribed guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.111.249.151 (talk) 13:42, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

- Please read this. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:03, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
Not sure why my name is not showing the above post despite logged in Wiki. Kindly make the iON Manufacturing Solution page live and mark the areas that needs re-work in your opinion. Chirantan Ghosh (talk) 10:00, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
- You are so wrapped up in your specialised trade that you have forgotten how to talk to people in the real world. For example, in the above what the <expletive deleted> is a "vertical" and what is special about the verticals on Santa Monica Boulevard? Your article says that it is about an "integrated manufacturing ERP on Cloud" but since the concept of electronic road pricing on clouds seems like a joke, one is left bemused as to what the article might be about.
- But seriously, Fuhghettaboutit (talk · contribs) applied the {{db-spam}} tag with an edit summary of "this could not be more of an advertisement" and I agree with them. Kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no COI thinks your product is notable and writes about it here. You can raise the matter at deletion review but do not raise your hopes too high. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:54, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
- I see that you have already been told about marketing buzzwords. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 11:02, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
The Wizard Man of Sutton and Croydon
I am asking you this as someone else who is likely to have heard of him. Before I write the article on him, how likely is he to be notable?--Launchballer 17:39, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
- I have never heard of him. Let us see the external links you would use in the article. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:00, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
- When seeing the title, I assumed it was a nickname someone had come up with for you! --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:28, 10 May 2013 (UTC)
He's this guy who walks up and down Sutton High Street in a wizard costume; he's a real celebrity around this area. I thought you might have heard of him since he appeared in the Croydon Guardian. I've dumped the urls at User:Launchballer/sandbox, but I'll need to format them Done.--Launchballer 07:22, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
- I must admit when I first saw the title, I thought it might be sarcastic article about me. Again, I have never seen the guy but then I don't go into Croydon or Sutton very much at the times when he is likely to be around. (But the way these things work, that probably means that I will see him the very next time I am there!) Sorry, nice set of refs but I think the conclusion will be that he is world famous in
PolandSutton and Croydon. Don't waste too much time on it - add some text and submit via AfC. That means it will be visible here for at least a year and someone from a distant country (eg. Summerston or Govan) may pick it up and confirm the guy's notability. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:55, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi, If it's not a copyright violation, can you undelete the backhistory of Harold C. Edwards please? The subject is pretty clearly notable, and possibly should never have been subjected to admin roulette in the first place. Barney the barney barney (talk) 10:43, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
- Done. I must say the latest version is not much better for asserting notability. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 10:47, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
I'm not quite sure what the problem with this is. He was made a CBE (CBE is normally considered a significant award), he's also in the National Portrait Gallery (the NPG only hold portraits of notable people). He's in who's Who (Who's Who only include notable individuals), he was also editor of Gut and meets WP:PROF. I fail to see how 4 times over was deleted for "lack of notability". Barney the barney barney (talk) 18:08, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
- Slight inversion: usually we delete because an article asserts notability but does not provide refs. I this case the refs were OK but the text was distinctly short on assertion of notability, eg. if he is a CBE we need to be told what he did to get it. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:20, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
IP address
If I create accounts, do administrators know my IP address? How to know my IP address if I create accounts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Fceefyahoo.ca (talk • contribs) 22:58, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
- Creating multiple accounts is very strongly deprecated. You already have one account therefore you should not be creating any more. If you always edit in a logged in state your IP address will only be invisible to a very select group of people - those with CheckUser rights. And even they are told only to use the right to protect Wikipedia against disruption, abuse, or vandalism. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:20, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Martin Port
Please could you undelete/userfy the deleted page Martin Port. We would like to review the talk page and article to identify what the inconsistencies/lack of references were so that this article can be re-added. Many Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asleeds (talk • contribs) 00:26, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
- Just as in last December, I am puzzled as to why you are talking to me. Please explain what connection you have with theredrocket (talk · contribs). Please see my comment against the RefUnd request. I cannot see the reason for the falsification allegations but certainly the article stood no chance of survival with the refs that it had. Text e-mailed to you. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:20, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Macau
Hello, I saw that you delete the article Macau New Technologies Incubator Centre under G12. The image and website are owned by us would like to donate the materials. Could you please let me to re-create the page. Thank you. Frankietou (talk) 03:11, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
- Please read this. Do you seriously think that an article containing "we are determined" and "we seek to establish" is going to stand any chance of survival? Kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no COI thinks your company is notable and writes about it here. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 15:20, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
Thank you for your information and reply. Can I ask how long should I wait for the result? I can modify the previous content to avoid COI if necessary. Thank you. Frankietou (talk) 09:06, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
- You should wait indefinitely. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:08, 22 May 2013 (UTC)
Dolphin Embassy
Dear RHaworth, today I've made an article about the Dolphin Embassy (sorry, I don't know how to put the link to the delited article), few hours ago I've got the message about the "speedy deliting" baner, after I've rote my cases in the Contested deletion and at the end (since less then 2 hours, I guess) I found that the article is already deleted (surely by you : ) - how it's possible? Why you didn't give me any aportunity?? and who with I have to "contest" now about the flash-like delited article? ). Regards Soderjanie Pustoti (talk) 22:33, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
- But you have been given an opportunity - at AfC - which is more than you deserve because you probably have a serious COI. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:59, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
Dear RHaworth, I'm talking about ability to take part into contested deletion but not about AfC - by the way, I create this article accidentally (I was sure that I'm on the main Wiki "Creating" field - so, it's really my mistake (incidentally - how to delete it? ; )). You also suppose, that my article is "probably have a serious COI" - but (between us) you didn't even have a look on it before deleting. — Soderjanie Pustoti (talk) 15:55, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- The point I am making is that there is no deletion to contest (yet). Here is your article at AfC. The text is identical to that which you posted in mainspace. Don't be impatient - wait until an AfC reviewer looks at it. If it is accepted, then it will get moved to mainspace. "Probably have a serious COI" is not a reference to the article - it is a reference to you. What is your connection with the Dolphin Embassy? And how do you know I did not look at the article? I did look and fully agreed with Barney the barney barney (talk · contribs) that it is spam. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 16:40, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- You might want to look at 30th parallel (phenomenon) as well, which is a WP:COATRACK for the above, and is extremely bizarre. Barney the barney barney (talk) 18:43, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
- I saw your comment to Barek: "the only solution to create the Dolphin Embassy article for me now is to wait for the decision in the Articles for creation field?" I will offer you a choice of C or D - AfC or AfD. That is: Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Dolphin Embassy can be left where it is which virtually guarantees that it will remain there for at least a year or it can be moved to Dolphin Embassy and discussed at AfD which probably means that it will be deleted within a fortnight. The choice is yours, please let me know. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 12:59, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
C is surely better )) Thank you! Also, please, have a look to the 30th parallel (phenomenon) - I deleted "The expedition" section and so on. — Soderjanie Pustoti (talk) 13:09, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- I looked. So what? Do you seriously think your deletion makes the article any more acceptable? — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:55, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Almond cookie v. Chinese Almond biscuit
Did you actually look at the articles in question before speedily deleted? This is the second time this has happened to me so I'm a little annoyed.
First of all, if an article covers the same subject why not merge it or at least redirect it? No need to speedily delete and lose the history. And in this case, the article on a Almond cookie is ab out a Chinese biscuit/ cookie and is not the same as the article I created on almond cookies. Please restore the article history I was working on.
And while you're at it if you could restore the history beneath the parillada redirect i would appreciate that also. I'm not sure it's not a distinct topic and at the very least the history should exist so it can be split back out if need be without having to start over from scratch. Thank you. Enjoy your Friday and weekend. Candleabracadabra (talk) 20:34, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Both histories restored. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:55, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you very much. I apologize for being a bit curt. It's been a long day. Take care. Candleabracadabra (talk) 22:59, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Unprotect request
Please unprotect Tonight We Raid Calais (you protected it) in order to address this strangely implemented page move request and perform the requested page move, which looks reasonable to me. Staszek Lem (talk) 22:11, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
- Done. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:53, 16 May 2013 (UTC)
Kim Bok Man deletion
Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Bok Man Kim is listed as deleted because it violated copyrights. When the article was first created, I was using Wiki as a place to draft the article, and that first save did indeed contain text copied from another page. However, the page submitted did not contain any copied and pasted text; I wholly wrote it, and it contained references, etc for documentation. So I'm confused about the problem. Please re-instate the article so that I may edit it as necessary, and please advise. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mike.e.swope (talk • contribs) 15:44, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
- Restored. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:31, 17 May 2013 (UTC)
Data Control & Systems
Please may you send me the entire page of Data Control & Systems as it was prior to deletion. I spent the whole night writing that and when I woke up 4 hours later it was gone. It was an article "under construction" and totally incomplete. Is this normally the policy of Wikimediaists to erase without a chance of talk on articles being written but not completed? I did not even have time to put in the formatting, cites or sources before the whole thing was removed. In my opinion it was unfair, but at least send me a copy and I won't bother posting it again. -- Ashattock (talk) 04:46, 18 May 2013 (UTC)
- All edits restored. An article that has survived for more than seven years deserves better than speedy deletion. Even in the state I have left it the article is a bit too long, containing unencyclopedic detail. Do your additions actually add anything useful? The most desperate need is for multiple independent references. If these are not provided asap, I am likely to nominate the article for deletion. If you must add text, some other hints are: section headings are a good idea. I am dubious whether the staff (especially Adam Shattock!) are notable enough to justify their own articles so we do not link to them. As a general rule when we mention a linkable subject, we link the first time - we do not link every time we use the term.
- I strongly recommend that put your text on your own web site or blog. Eg. the "electronic cup-holder" story is good but does not belong here. A link from Wikipedia to your website would probably stick - but would not constitute evidence of notability. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 08:32, 18 May 2013 (UTC)

Soul Signs
Hallo, why did you delete Soul Signs? It's a very very notable book, written by a bestselling author and internationally known spiritual healer, featured on Oprah, Larry King Live, Vanity Fair, People, The New York Times, published by Rodale, translated in numerous languages[1], and reviewed by The New York Times[2]. Kenneth C. Davis, author of Don't Know Much About History, commented that “Rosemary Altea once again provides miraculous proof of the unseen world of spirit that surrounds us all?[3].
This book is also previewed by book.google: look here ! And there is voice also in italian language, and on esopedia.it , and on Facebook.
Please, stop deleting Soul Signs any more from Wikipedia, thanks. -- Ballanti (talk) 13:32, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

No WP:RS or any sort of interest other than by this user seems to appear anywhere. I certainly understand having patience and working to help users understand WP but I am led to believe that this user is knowing advertising a product they have a relation to (thus also WP:COI). — MrBill3 (talk) 20:48, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
- Please stop adding Soul Signs or Soul Signs or Soul Signs any more to Wikipedia. Your latest submission contains less evidence of notability than that deleted by this AfD discussion.

Empty administrative category
Why did you delete this category Category:Category:Wikipedia articles incorporating a citation from the Encyclopedia Americana with no wstitle or title parameter without altering the template that generates entries in it or talking to me if you did not understand what generated entries?
I am not in he habit of creating categories without a reason, and by deleting a hidden administrative category without altering the template that populates the category you run the risk that in future a red administrative category will pollute article space. -- PBS (talk) 16:53, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
- What's with this weird category:category: namespace? There is plenty of precedent for deleting empty cleanup categories - for example look how many times Category:Unreferenced BLPs from April 2011 has been deleted and re-created. But if you recreate your pet category on a sensible title and put {{empty category}} at the top of it, I promise not to delete it again. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:24, 20 May 2013 (UTC)
Black Women Playwrights' Group
Hello RHaworth, My article for Black Women Playwrights' Group was recently deleted on May 16th. You assumed that the BWPG logo was copyright material, which it is not. Is there a way to retrieve the article, delete the image, and move forward to approval? It took a great deal of time to format the article and I am hoping not to start the process over again completely. Thank you for your concerns.

Text e-mailed but kindly have the decency to wait until someone with no COI thinks your company is notable.

Thank you, RHaworth, for attending to this. The same material was previously deleted as an attack page at this MfD months ago. Could you possibly look at this user also who seems engaged in a similar act of impersonation? The user name mirrors my own user name; this circumstance is made clearer by the same user’s “creation” of this article, one that I wrote but one that consensus at this AfD determined should be merged elsewhere due to the subject’s lack of notability. This “new” article simply resurrects—verbatim, I believe—the earlier article that did not survive the AfD. — Tristan noir (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 05:06, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- Quite a witty mirroring. Now blocked. Let me know if they pop up again. (Hint: a red-linked user page always screams "newbie". Please put something in User:Tristan noir if only "I am a male living in England".) — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:39, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, a witty mirror, indeed. I’ve followed your advice and written a simple description on my user page. Meanwhile, given the similar content and modus operandi, it appears that this user and perhaps this user as well may be other puppets associated with the two previously blocked.Tristan noir (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 04:20, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Prots
Hi. This and this are both odd pages, but what is even more odd is that you protected them. I'm not sure that's the proper response. Maybe you'd like to take them to a deletion venue instead? In any case, the author is posting edit request notices on the respective talk pages. It would be nice if you cleaned up a bit here. Cheers, Killiondude (talk) 06:12, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- I think my replies on two sandbox talk pages and one user talk page cover the matter adequately. MFD would be a bit cruel - these are good faith edits. Once we can ram into the heads of these two guys that that they are in the wrong wiki and they re-post in the right place, I will be willing to delete the sandboxes here without further sanction. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 09:39, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
Help needed in the plasma universe
IRWolfie- has deleted the page plasma universe by redirecting it without warning or discussion [1]. Whatever his reasons that is clearly wrong. His stated reason is that it is a redundant disambiguation page. It isn't a disambiguation page (and it doesn't have the disambiguation header), although it started out with two editors (one was me) trying to make sense of the way the term has been used, it was explicitly changed by you a long time ago to not be a disambiguation page [2] (BTW that was against what I'd done, but I thought it was a good call). Anyway, I reverted IRWolfie-'s deletion and was trying to write something much like I am writing now on the talk page when he deleted the page again, so I now have no page on which to explain why I don't think the page should be deleted. IRWolfie- is a very experienced editor (we have clashed in the past so I can vouch for that) but I think this behaviour is way out of line. Have you any recommendation as to what I should do next? Aarghdvaark (talk) 15:02, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
p.s. because he is redirecting the page the timeline is lost. This is his second deletion [3] which he calls a "minor" change. I think I gave him more than fair warning in my comment on my revert that what he was doing was unacceptable, Aarghdvaark (talk) 15:14, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
- I tend to agree with IRWolfie- (talk · contribs). The page was an uncomfortable hybrid of disambig. page and article. And where is the timeline that you mention? Since redirects are not supposed to have discussion pages, if you really think there should be a separate article, I suggest you seek consensus in talk:plasma cosmology. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:13, 23 May 2013 (UTC)
OK I can live with discussion about AfD. What I think is unacceptable is unilateral deletion, which is effectively what a redirect is. As an article it had a timeline. As a redirect it hasn't. That's why I say the timeline is lost. Aarghdvaark (talk) 23:40, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

Hertfordshire Health and Wellbeing
Hi, I am wondering why Hertfordshire Health and Wellbeing was deleted. I was in the midst of editing it, and adding more content. I wanted it to be a starting page for other health and wellbeing topics that affect this county and where people could explain the services they get. For example someone with a disease or illness getting services from the NHS or organization for their needs (Autism, Ageing etc). Also a place where relevant data and information about each topic could be displayed. Please tell me the best way I can do this.

But the thing is 3.2.1 and their hit, "Splash Out" has become a phenomenal big hit in Thailand right now and it has started to get overseas interests as it reached Top 10 iTunes single in Malaysia, Top 40 iTunes single in Taiwan, and Top 100 iTunes in Singapore. MTV Taiwan is using the song on their show now -> hear youtube. That was why I thought the english details about the group, 3.2.1, should be available so I started writing their English wiki page. Anyway, if you don't think it's significant, could you please give me the text of my written page so I can use it somewhere else. Unfortunately, I didn't save it on my computer. Thank you in advance.

The extent to which you "own" you own user page is limited and you cannot be said to own another user's page at all. I can only repeat that it was a blatant case of using Wikipedia as a free host and thoroughly deserved to be deleted. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 18:49, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

Ninetology Palette
Hi RHaworth, the article I had written about Ninetology Palette on the 28th of May was deleted due to G11. The style and tone I had written the article in and the lack of references was probably the main cause of this. Would it be possible to email me a copy of my written article so I may revise it accordingly before resubmitting it to AfC for review to recreate the page? Thank you.

Deleted - Comprehensive Cancer Centers
Hello, I am inquiring about why my company's page was deleted? We were first moved into the "Wikipedia talk: Articles" due to our "promotional tone" and "lack of evidence." I went through our submission and added references to many news articles and publications as well as made the tone more neutral. Please let me know why the page was deleted.

DIY Road Cases
Hello Roger, I am looking to gain some advice with regard to possibly preparing a new article regarding the recently deleted DIY Road Cases article. I have re-read my saved file several times to determine what parts lend themselves to "the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person . . ." I thought that my article was as objective and factual as possible, but now that I have scrutinized it to no end, I feel that I can edit it to a more acceptable re-write, as DIY Road Cases is definitely a bona fide product/concept. Maybe you could provide me with a little clarification to help me as I consider the re-write. For example, when I read an article such as P90X, to me it looks like a full-blown on-page infomercial, yet it exists on Wikipedia, seemingly in line with the above-quoted reasoning for speedy deletion, so that confuses me a little bit. Now, on the other end of the spectrum from that, the product Little Giant Ladder System is actually contained on the Wing Enterprises article, which seems to be a brief, straightforward, article. Can you recommend a happy medium between the two versions, or a better way, that I could execute a re-write that would prevent a deletion? Also, would I encounter an issue in re-creating an article under the name DIY Road Cases, and if so, should I maybe create an entry in the fashion of the above mentioned Little Giant Ladder System - Wing Enterprises article? Thank you - John - Manicrino (talk) 16:44, 29 May 2013 (UTC)

Hi, I believe I am speaking English. To wikt:action something means to action, implement, in this case a request, a G6 request. Anyway, can you please tell me where I will find the deletion log for the G6 on the article page? Then I don't have to ask the person actioning the G6 next time. In ictu oculi (talk) 19:33, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Some would say that "G6" is English - I say it is gobbledeegook. But "speedily deleted" is undeniably English and that is what I prefer to see. The Joseph Michel article has never been subject to deletion. Look at the edit history and the log. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 19:54, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
Well, it wasn't I who left "G6" as an edit summary, it was you. If you object to your edit summary as goobledeegook and not English perhaps there is some mechanism in your tools which allows yourself to overwrite it with words of your own choice? But I can't help you with that.
Anyway the question I am asking is where I will find the deletion log for the article page, the Joseph Michel article page only shows this. No history or trace of the original content, or move, or redirect which seems to have been totally erased.
Sorry but what am I supposed to click to see the "log"? In ictu oculi (talk) 20:03, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- It is not an edit summary, it is a deletion summary. And the G6 in it is a bit of incidental flack. The operative words in the summary are "deleted …: housekeeping and routine (non-controversial) cleanup" which are plain English. I am truly amazed: you have thousands of edits to your credit and are asking "what am I supposed to click to see the log" like a newbie. To see the edit history you clicked on view history. On that page, immediately below the article title you failed to see a link view logs for this page. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:25, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Well, you're a biter. In ictu oculi (talk) 21:01, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Dear RHaworth, I have been reading the disambiguation guidelines on the English Wikipedia and have come to the conclusion it is best to move the article Joseph Michel (musician) back to Joseph Michel, since the other topic of the same name does not have an article of its own at this juncture. I know you are an admin. Would you be able to do this for me? Sorry for the inconvenience. Sincerely, Taketa (talk) 20:42, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
- Done. Let us see if that confuses In ictu oculi even more. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 20:52, 31 May 2013 (UTC)
Exsite Webware
If you recall, you had previously deleted pages titled Exsite Webware and Exsite Webware (software). Due to academic pressures I had to defer updating the deleted page to include some notability to meet your standards. At that time, you emailed me the deleted page, but I can't find your email to me containing the deleted page. Are you able to find the page in your records and email it to me again? Unfortunately, I don't have the tools or administrative wherewithall to locate the deleted article on my own, so I will need to rely on you for assistance from time to time until this matter is sorted out.

Lisa Lavie
Hello Mr. Haworth. I see that you have speedy-deleted the June 2 Lisa Lavie article that I posted, based on G4, "Recreation of a page that was deleted per a deletion discussion." However, G4 "excludes pages that are not substantially identical to the deleted version" and my June 2 submission was more concise, about a fourth as long, and more consistently well-referenced than the 2009-2013 article that was deleted on April 1. Because of the differences between the two versions, deletion review also doesn't seem appropriate. So I need your advice on how to get the new article fair consideration: my notability arguments are here: "Establishing notability...". Can you reconsider your speedy deletion or give some practical advice? Thanks. RCraig09 (talk) 23:05, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
- Deletion review seems completely appropriate. I have restored your last version. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 23:28, 2 June 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, I found the previous version in the revision history. I'll look into the deletion review process. RCraig09 (talk) 02:29, 3 June 2013 (UTC)
- Supplemental: preliminary to considering DRV, I consulted with the 1 April closing admin Spinningspark, who indicated (here) that if the new article that you speedy-deleted on 2 June is substantially different from the deleted original, I should take up the matter with you. In fact they are very different (new 16KB vs original 65KB plus other differences listed at "Changes" here). Question: There is an ambiguity in your above comment, which of the 1 April deletion or the 2 June speedy deletion you implied I should take to to DRV. If you meant the 2 June (improved) version, then can you simply reverse your own speedy delete decision? Please clarify and advise. Thanks. RCraig09 (talk) 03:38, 6 June 2013 (UTC)
I am not particularly sure why an article about an American radio and television corporation fell under "Article about a company, corporation or organization, which does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject", but I do believe that to be a very incorrect statement. From the last I saw, the article looked fine. Granted this was about 2 weeks ago, so things could have changed. I would ask the article be undeleted and taken to AfD for proper consensus or moved to my userspace (User:Neutralhomer/SagaCommunications is fine) so that I may work on it. But I highly certain the article didn't fall under A7. - Neutralhomer • Talk • 00:09, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- The amazing thing is why the article has stayed so stubby for so long. I looked for comparisons and found Global Group. Have Saga never been involved in any controversies or other newsworthy activities. Userfied. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 08:58, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
- Saga is one of the very few radio station companies in the US that buy stations, make them sound awesome and keep ahold of them for years. They don't make many "waves" either, don't do anything controversial. The only thing remotely newsworthy is when one of their DJs said Mount Trashmore Park, a park made out of a converted landfill in Virginia Beach, Virginia, was going to explode from the methane in the trash. This was said, on the air, on April Fool's Day in 1992. The DJs were suspended for two days. That's really it.
- I will, however, work on the article and try and get it back within the GNG. Thanks for moving it to my userspace. Take Care...Neutralhomer • Talk • 19:05, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Unspeedy deletion request for Accurate Technologies Inc.
I am requesting the speedy delete be removed, so I can make your requested changes. "Speedy deletion is intended to reduce the time spent on deletion discussions for pages or media with no practical chance of surviving discussion." This article does stand a chance, because:
- G11 states "Note: An article about a company or a product which describes its subject from a neutral point of view does not qualify for this criterion." This article was neutral.
- Stated in A7 The criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source or does not qualify on Wikipedia's notability guidelines.If the claim's credibility is unclear, you can improve the article yourself, which I was not given a chance to do so. There are sources in this article, thus a claim of importance has been made. The proper 7 day debate should have taken effect, not a speedy deletion.
- G11 states "Note: An article about a company or a product which describes its subject from a neutral point of view does not qualify for this criterion." This article was neutral.
I understand notability needs work, but there is evidence that an attempt has been made, therefor enough to qualify for debate. If the speedy delete is removed, requested improvements will be made as the 7 day debate takes place.
One other argument that was brought up was potential copy write infringement to this page: http://www.accuratetechnologies.com/content/view/199/197/lang,en/
This was proven false by doing a side to side comparison of content on website and in article. The format and the 5 terms were the only thing that had similarities, thus not a violation.
Please consider this article for reinsertion into Wiki, with promise of improvements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rowebot86 (talk • contribs) 13:54, 7 June 2013 (UTC)
