Disruptive activity following your partial block
Following this EW partial block that you made in September 2020, an RfC was later opened on the same article's talk page. The same editor made the same revert that caused the partial block, during the RfC, and is continuing to bludgeon the RfC despite several requests to stop.
The editor has not been listening to requests to stop reverting and bludgeoning. Could you take a look? Thanks. — MarkH21talk 15:40, 31 October 2020 (UTC)

Review of deletion
Hi, I wanted to bring this up at WP:Deletion review but figured I should write to you first. I believe that this discussion which you closed (in good faith) as "delete" was actually supposed to end in "no consensus". I'm not talking of course into the subject of the article, which is quite notable, but about the procedure: Besides the nominator, it initially had 2 keep votes and could have been closed as keep, it was re-listed. Then then after days it still had more keep votes, and was again relisted. And then it still had more keeps, and was relisted for a third time, which is not recommended at all according to guidelines. It then ended in a "draw", and got deleted. If possible, please take a look at it. Thanks, EliQM (talk) 11:32, 12 November 2020 (UTC)

Deletion review for AirDee
An editor has asked for a deletion review of AirDee. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. Deletion Review logged to add new independent reliable sources on a biography of a living person. Please note that this is to further enhance the case for notability as the subject was covered extensively in physical copies of publications which are intended for citation but otherwise not available on line but can be verified.
