Bot Approvals GroupThat method of selection does not have community consensus, and those nominations which were approved were ran while it was clear that method lacked consensus (in seemingly direct defiance of that, in fact).

Would you mind reviewing the article? If you choose to do so, thankyou in advance. Bookkeeperoftheoccult (talk) 09:58, 17 May 2008 (UTC) Hey Rjd, on the 8th I added a prod tag to Swoogle.

ANI thread regarding unblock declinePlease see this ANI thread, where I've criticised an unblock review (a decline) that you performed. Carcharoth (talk) 01:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC) I disagree with your closing the debate because of "no consensus." The proper course of action would have been to relist in order to gain a consensus, since it had not been relisted before. Because of your action, I will now be forced to take this to deleteion review to obtain a proper outcome. - Realkyhick (Talk to me) 18:15, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

I think the PROD was pretty off; as a fictional character, it's tough to establish any kind of real-world notability outside the books, as you well know. However, WP:OTHERSTUFF aside, targeting that one article out of the slew of Redwall character articles that we have seems a little unnecessary and unfair. Would you consider restoring it, or at least merging it to a different article, like List of Long Patrol hares? If you choose the latter, I'll be happy to help. Thanks. GlassCobra 15:55, 21 May 2008 (UTC) DELETION OF THE CHUCK LEONARD PAGEChuck Leonard was a notable disc jockey because he was the first African American (and if I'm not mistaken the only African Amercian) to work at WABC on the air and the reason for that was because back in the 60s as you probably remember ws the time of the Civil Rights Movement. Chuck Leonard did something what not a lot of people were able to do, he became one of the most popular and most remembered radio Disc Jockey's on the air at WABC and he became known across the country. Also, if I remember correctly, I never saw a notice on the Chuck Leonard page about it being deleted if noone said why Chuck Leonard should be remembered. SO I think the page should be put back up. Thank you --Chrismaster1 (talk) 19:29, 22 May 2008 (UTC) Please do restore the page. Because the reason that Chuck Leonard should be noted is because of the same reason as above.

You deleted this as an expired prod, but I had previously deprodded it.

The deletion was uncontested, so you deleted the article. I would like to request that you restore the original article, so that I can merge and/or redirect the article to List of Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st edition monsters#TSR 2016 - Monster Manual II (1983).

What a WhopperI wish to question the deletion of this article. This was deleted as an uncontested PROD, I only became aware a short time ago that it was up for PROD, if I had been aware of this I would certainly have questioned this proposed deletion and possibly addressed the concerns some people might have had with the article. PatGallacher (talk) 01:09, 2 June 2008 (UTC) Thank you so muchThanks a lot for the help. -- Grant.Alpaugh 16:17, 3 June 2008 (UTC) Did you see my comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Midnight Cabaret? I'm thinking of taking this to DRV (or perhaps I don't need to, maybe I can just nominate for deletion again??). My concern is that clearly the solution the original nominator and his supporter were aiming for hasn't actually been achieved. The article is back in the state it was. Further, if this theatre company are notable, then the users writing about it are doing the right thing in putting their article where a redirect used to be (although they should add a hatnote). Yet if they're not notable, allowing the AfD to run its term would establish a consensus to that effect - thereby enabling any further recreation to be speedied, or the redirect to be protected, or whatever other action then becomes necessary. Do you agree? AndyJones (talk) 12:29, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
Darren WhiteHi--I noticed that you deleted Darren White, who is running for a competitive seat in the US House of Representatives, which I think satisfies the notability requirement.

AI effectHello Rjd0060 I have seen that the article about the AI effect was deleted as being not notable enough. I would like to ask whether this deletion was justified, because I think the perception of AI has played a big role in its development since its earliest concepts.

In this case, I would also be very appreciative if you could place your view on the article on its talk page in order to start a discussion about how to improve it. best regards - Columnist (talk) 09:14, 12 June 2008 (UTC) ToyThe article on the Album Toy was deleated. I think this article should be brought back as it has important information to David Bowie's career inbetween the albums "...Hours" and "Heathen." I am not the only one who feels this way and I felt that somebody should make a request to bring this page back. There wasn't anything in the article not confirmed by David Bowie or his manegment and the album was fully written, produced, and released in pieces. I'd appreciate if this article were brought back and if not who do I need to talk to, other than yourself, to bring it back. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.37.12.182 (talk) 21:54, 14 June 2008 (UTC) Whittlesea Fire BrigadeI am interested as to why you thought this article did not fulfill the notoriety requirements.

Kurt Weber (Go Colts!) 02:08, 23 June 2008 (UTC) Spike O' Neill PageHello, you recently deleted and protected this page, citing the reason of 'A7 Nothing noteworthy about person'. Spike is a Pacific Northwest radio personality, with a fairly sizeable listener base. I created the page as a placeholder to be filled in. He had expressed on air an opinion that wikipedia was an unreliable source of information, and I contacted the show with a challenge, proposing that they announce the pages existance to the listeners. The point was to test the speed and accuracy that the page could be created once it was announced. PLEASE undelete and protect this pave ASAP, as continuing this blockage is going to produce negative publicity for wikipedia. If in another week or so there is still no worthwile content, his point will have been validated, and you can delete it again.

There is no encouragement to vandalize the page or wikipedia in general in any way, shape, or form. The point was to prove how quickly a accurate and factual article could be produced, and demonstrate that wikipedia's methodology is solid. Please revert this page's status. Thanks.

I take offense to your reasons for deletion, unfortunately by your criteria, almost every "indie" game or game related product or service made that is listed on Wikipedia should be deleted because it is non-notable. As for your "lack of sources" just how many sources do you need? Do you want every link listed where a person can buy this game electronicly and retail? What about all the fan sites? You tube vidoes? etc. I listed a decent amount to begin with which I felt was adiquate, but if you would like more I can go forth and deposit more if you feel that this is enough to qualify it as "sources" to proove it actually exists and that people play it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by LoganCDN (talk • contribs) 15:49, 27 June 2008 (UTC) Small questionI can understand why you closed the 3RR request as you did, but I have to wonder: Who's responsibility is it to start a discussion on the talk page, the editor who made the initial bold edit or the editor has said, or is going to say, "No, that's wrong"? In this case, I've got a bad feeling that if it were me (2nd editor) I would have been the only one posting to the talk. No, that isn't assuming bad faith, I can see that the ball started with an edit that, in that editor's opinion, improved the article. It the sinking feeling that the editor was disinclined to discuss it. And yes, by extension that means it's a dead issue since that version has "won", that image is up and the other is in a likelihood going to be deleted. I could start the conversation, but why would the other editor want to even bother? I've also run into situations that make me wonder how long an edit has to be in place before it stops being the "bold initial edit". Worst case (not this situation) was a removal of stuff that had been in an article for over a year. The editor removing it took the position that the inclusion, not the removal, was the bold edit that had to be justified. Now I'm second guessing, was the image change or my reversal of it the bold edit that needs to be justified. - J Greb (talk) 23:11, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

I had trouble with my first article's casing (Easily embarrassed) and I probably went wrong about trying to rename it myself, as I had moved content to new article Easily Embarrassed and made redirect from old article Easily embarrassed to Easily Embarrassed. I suppose I should have read more into wiki policy, but there is just so much :) Now I went to the deletion log and altough I don't understand what TW is, I do understand Easily embarrassed was deleted and in follow up I understand you or somebody then proposed deletion for the real article Easily Embarrassed. I just haven't been around to see it and respond within 5 days I suppose and now it is gone :( Are you able to restore this one or something? I'd like to continue on it. Also any pointers to wiki pages I should read are appreciated. Thanks Ayane1985 (talk) 15:29, 17 July 2008 (UTC) It's an attack page.GrazieI think the measure of a person's integrity is whether, in the face of contradictory evidence, they're willing to reconsider issues they think are closed.

You wrote there:
Well, he did continue as several users mentioned on that page. My evidence of a new 3RR violation was removed for 3 times by him By doing so 3 times within 30 minutes this resulted in yet yet another edit war. I cannot undo that anymore since that would mean I also was violating the 3RR. Please take some action. - Robotje (talk) 14:41, 21 July 2008 (UTC) Ok...I hope you take the protection off soon.

The win goes to 67.40.211.121. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.42.82.43 (talk) 21:44, 26 July 2008 (UTC) Hi. Ok, I know the article was deleted due to a PROD, but since I have no idea who put up the PROD, I will ask here. Compare the murder of Alicia Ross, an incident of similar media coverage in Canada, with a similar outcome (murderer convicted of second-degree), and thus, in theory, have similar notability. "Single incident coverage", how is that different from the Alicia Ross case, other than the fact that the victim in this case was a minor? Also, what specific BLP concerns were raised? Apparently we must get the article right, but a search for "Cecilia Zhang" finds thousands of potential news sources. If an article is not warranted, should there not be a brief mention in a particular related article? Thanks. ~AH1(TCU) 15:07, 27 July 2008 (UTC) RfB Thank You spam

You wrote a short explanation in the deletion log, saying that the article lacked a good reference, but I think this could have been fixed easily in this specific case. I couldn't also understand why the article was lacking of notability, when it is a much debated phenomena within the field of A.I. and there were at least five pages on wikipedia that linked directly to the article, such as http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_intelligence http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_artificial_intelligence http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_winter http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loebner_prize http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Artificial_intelligence I have never been really affectionated to such radical methods like deletion reviews, so I'm asking you again to restore the article or respectively giving further explanations about the reasons for deleting it.

The correct adress of the article is here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AI_effect It had since been restored and deleted again; Although I do not understand what the reason for restoring/deleting was, I suppose (regarding the comments in the deletion log) that the article page had been redirected to a user page, and that this redirect had been removed again later.

Jack WilshereHey, I was wondering if you could help me out with this. There is a soccer player named Jack Wilshere who was just recently made a starting player. Before he was only on reserve squads so whenever people tried to make a page for him it was quickly deleted. I guess this happened so often that now the page is blocked from being created. Since he is a now a first team player I assume he is notable enough for his own article. Could you unblock this page, or show me how I would go about doing that? Thanks.

Hi Rjd0060 could you please explain to me how you came to the conclusion that User:The Thunderer was tag teamed on the UDR page. So you feel that User:Jdorney here, User:Valenciano here, User:Blueputtnam here, User:Maxburgoyne here and myself here all teamed up together got consensus on the talk page which also included User:Traditional unionist here just to lure The Thunderer into breaching 3RR. This is a ludicrous claim, so what you mean is five editors who disagree with an addition to an article and all get consensus and remove it are all part of a tag team.

Oversight questionHi. :) I note that you cleared the article Paul Doktor after receiving verification of permission. I'm so glad it came through! I'm dropping you a line to see if you are also handling clearing Yaltah Menuhin. The articles were created by the same user and sourced to the same website, and the copy of the permissions letter he cc'ed to me addressed both articles. I don't know, of course, if he sent another letter to the Communications Committee that only covered the one. However, I thought I would check, since the second article covered in the same letter may have been overlooked. Please let me know if I should forward that letter to Permissions again. I had such trouble contacting the gentleman in the first place, thanks to e-mail wonkishness, that I'd hope not to have to ask him to send the letter again himself. I'll be watching your talk page, so feel free to answer here. On the other hand, I'm comfortable with an answer at my own page, too.

Deletion of Afterburn(Carowinds)Hi there, I'm a little confused as to why the article on the roller coaster Afterburn was deleted.

Basically I'm wondering why this article was singled out. Thanks, Abowers87 (talk) 04:07, 22 August 2008 (UTC) Yes, okay, it isn't called "Administrator reports", but this is more informative to a new person finding their way around. If they want to report something to the administrators, they'll click on "Administrator reports", but there is a higher chance they'll be confused with "Administrators'", because the latter could almost be construed as a place where admins exclusively posted. —Anonymous DissidentTalk 02:18, 23 August 2008 (UTC) |
