Hi,
Sorry, no idea whether this the right place for it, but thought I should report my concern over the deletion of the following page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shinsei_kamattechan
I'm a music journalist based in Tokyo and am reviewing an album by this band. I checked the information in the above wiki page through Google's cache and found it extremely useful. The band is currently rising to prominence in Japan.
Just so you know, the page was of use to me and possibly to others.

Ashley Steel page was deleted?
Hey I am Ashley Steel pornographic actress and model. I had hired my publicist to do my wiki page, along with many other things. She did Sunny Leone, Nikki Benz and others that work along side me.
Why was my page deleted by you? I believe it needs to be reinstated. I did not see the content of the page before they posted it but I imagine it is along the lines of my 5 year career in adult.
Thanks.

--- Thank you John. I greatly appreciate your response. I suspect that the article did not produce any notability due to a conflict with my publicist in which I believe they purposefully posted an unverified article. I never got to see what was posted and what links and references they used for it. I am sorry about hiring for article, but it was just one of the many things they were supposed to do and never did. I have asked for a complete refund, as this was the only thing left for them do in exchange for the large amount of money I paid for PR, since all other things and contacts they were supposed to utilize, fell through. I just wanted to be done with it since they are very angry and difficult to talk to. After reading your response, I feel like this is principle now. As for this, I gave them many cited links and information, and never saw the article so truthfully I cannot say that it was wikipedia worthy or not.
I greatly appreciate your response and truthfulness. If this is ok, I will likely use this statement in court... Thank you thank you thank you. - A Steel —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.105.78.139 (talk) 02:49, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

...for your help with the Sphinx. Chrisrus (talk) 23:58, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
John,
Many thanks for reverting the standard reference for Will Hanrahan. The vandalised article which appeared in various forms from March 5th to March 17th, containing multiple and hurtful libels, was brought to my attention by a Libel lawyer and a TV agent. The solicitor did in fact work for a leading English company. Various attempts to remove the libels gave the impression of multiple vandalism. In fact this vandalism was an attempt to remove the errant material.
The reference to Will Hanrahan as of 07.32 GMT, March 19th, is fine. I would be most grateful if you could keep a watch on the article to ensure the libels are not repeated. Meantime, the IP address of the author of scurilous writing has been forwarded to Police in Birmingham, England. For the record, and I hope you may be able to help on this, I would prefer if the article was removed for a short period. It has been prepared well by a clearly interested person but is not 100% correct.
If your advice is to leave and amend later, then I will follow it. (Willhanrahan (talk) 07:37, 19 March 2010 (UTC)) Willhanrahan (talk) 07:37, 19 March 2010 (UTC)

I must say how impressed I am by the throughouness and sncerity of the administrators. I am new to Wikipedia and, though a victim of someone's efforts, think it excellent.

Thanks, John.

Hi John,
I was notified that you speedily deleted Lesly as a redirect to a non-existent page. I am not an administrator, therefore I am unable to determine what the target was before the redirect was deleted or whether it was performing the same function I had it performing when I initially created it. In any case, I believe that a disambiguation page should exist at Lesly as there are articles about people with both the given name "Lesly" and the surname "Lesly". Would you object to my creation of such a disambiguation page at Lesly?

Hi. :) The question of deleting the history of removed material came up at copyclean following Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2010 March 4#List of pop culture references to the 69 sex position. Now that I've got enough caffeine in me (early yet, in my part of the world) to grasp what's going on with it, I agree that we don't need the history if the material is removed, but it seems there could be some danger of inadvertent restoration since the content is still in the article's history. What about a history merge to preserve that attribution so that there's no danger of that? --Moonriddengirl (talk) 11:17, 22 March 2010 (UTC)

Hi JohnCD. I had to temporarily recreate Jason LH Seow because you userfied it without redirect. There's a bug in Special:NewPages where userfying an unpatrolled page without redirect causes the page to be stuck in the unpatrolled log.

Hi there. Would you have some time pls to look into this issue? In October 2009 I created a couple of articles about the African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA), including a list of African Movie Academy Awards ceremonies, highlighting some of the main events of the ceremonies and the nominees & winners (the articles were written by me, using my own words, and I did not copy & paste anything from anywhere). One of my main sources for the nominees & winners was the official website of the African Movie Academy Awards. Since October 2009 the content and the URLs of the AMAA website kept on changing, and thus I had to fix/adapt the references on the wikipedia articles accordingly. Now, to my surprise, the official AMAA site has copied & pasted the entire wikipedia text which I wrote last year in October unto their own website (e.g. here). Here's my question: what can be done to ensure that these wikipedia articles which I created won't be tagged for copyright-infringement, given the fact that it is the official AMAA site that copied from wikipedia?

Hi, I have gotten into an edit war over Jon Nelson. First I added a ((unreferencedblp)) tag, which was repeatedly removed. Then I took a closer look at the article and this musician was not mention in any of the articles linked to the page. So I added a ((db-person)) to the article which is now being repeatedly removed. I realise I never should have gotten into this war over these issues, and wish not to have any more to do with it. Whatever you think is the right thing to do.

Hello I am perfectly aware that you have these “please don't delete my page “requests all the time. So not once am I going to ask that. I just want to state why I believe my page should be added again. The house in question is a student house which has gained a rather famous reputation in the street and in the area of Cathays. Many people from the University of UWIC know of the happenings which take place there. So this is why I believe as a representative for the house that it should be on Wikipedia. There is no harm in allowing it and it was all true what was said and was written professionally and was information that others would want to read. This page does not harm the reputation of Wikipedia.

Your decision not to delete this page seems odd to me. The discussion produced 2 in favour and 2 against, with the two in favour of deletion being the more established users. I don't know how much you know about motorsport but A1 Grand Prix is close to going out of existance without a rescue deal, any details of a possible future season cannot remotely be known. One large component of that is the fact that the season may not even be called '2010-11 A1 Grand Prix season' when it is created. There is every chance that a new owner could rename the series or that the season may not even start until 2011, a change of timescale such that the page would be called '2011 A1 Grand Prix season' or something similar. The chances of someone searching for '2010-11 A1 Grand Prix season' are very slim, especially as it is not the current season but the one after it. It is the same reason why we don't create redirect pages for every future season in other race series. You can't suggest that it is a good idea to create '2011 GP2 Series season' or something just to redirect to main page on the off-chance that someone might type that into the search box. The beauty of the search box is that it draws up a list of closely matching pages so if someone did type in '2010-11 A1 Grand Prix season' it would take them to the main A1 Grand Prix page anyway. I still think the page should be deleted, please to what you can. Thanks. Officially Mr X (talk) 14:37, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
Hello there, I didn't create the page for "Art Of Movement", so I don't know if there was anything wrong with it. Therefore I was just wondering why you deleted it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jayeffect (talk • contribs) 13:38, 9 April 2010 (UTC)
I am not sure if this is an attack page, a blatant hoax or what. "Most notably Atticus' life took a turn after an ordeal while attending a high performance USCA junior training camp in Rice Lake Wisconsin. Though little is know about that day, claims are boasted regarding a five gallon bucket of mixed soft drinks, a funnel, and a coffee pot full of eyelashes." Xtzou (Talk) 13:14, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
I understand about the difference between true and verifiable--I just wanted to do it for fun. Here's some sources that verify his Olympic career and career as a worker for BigBelly Solar. I can edit the page so that those are the only two facts listed. (by the way, you must be a very patient person seeing what people write on your page!)
Keep up the good work!

Hi John - thanks again - hopefully I can get in there soon to post supportive references. Another Q - I'm having problems with some images being deleted.. I upload them, but apparently they get marked for speedy deletion and get pulled down - due to copyright notices I believe. How should I go about this if an artist has given permission to use an image? I'd like to reload a few, but would like to get this corrected so they stay live.

Dear John, We appreciate your effort to keep us from littering the Wiki and your explanations given to CENTROCAPITAL in the last TALK
We ask you also to explain contradiction between what you said in the TALK to that what is in the article A7 citation:
"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"
. The exact understanding of the need for reliable and independent sources can be of great help for us.
With best regards. CENTROCAPITAL
Not too worried about it being converted to a PROD, John. I'm a little concerned about this user, though - doesn't take a genius to see that ((twain)) is very specific to Mr. Clemens and has little to do with Jantzn May. Misguided, perhaps? --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 21:26, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
Maybe he is an about-to-be-published author but then again you have a track record of deleting the WP article about Malta's most published and best-known journalistDaphne Caruana Galizia, who has had her work published in national publications literally thousands of times. You deleted the article about the subject despite the fact that it had dozens of verified references from independent national publications.

Hello John,
Sorry for misleading actions of my team. I've created Centrocapital account to see what options WIKI has for us and how we will be able to contribute to WIKI in return. Earlier this year I've asked my assistant to check these options. Sorry that she decided to start with my biography which I consider not that notable. Team thinks different. But regulations are regulations and WIKI is a private project with rules that have to be followed. We accept this. So thanks for your actions. I appreciate cleaning and guarding job that you do, since it adds value to the whole of the project.
As you said, you can userfy the source code that have been created. Despite I have a plenty to say to the world I personally have no current plans to contribute much, probably I'll be more available at the time of retirement. Since team insists on finding as much as possible reliable independent references (and my history is not only GM – I started as a research scientist with about 20-ty published papers some of which got in the Citation Index, so they have a chance to file the form) can you please userfy Centrocapital/Alexander Sergeevich Afanasyev source code for user Afalse? This will save my assistant some time when she’ll be ready to submit the article for validation – first with me and then, if possible, with you (confirm please).
I’ll take more care of our actions next time and allocate some time to understand what corresponding WP policies are. I will delete the Centrocapital account since it violates WIKI username policies, as soon as you will transfer user data to my personal username Afalse

You deleted an entry I entered about an album that my band recorded. It was never released and clearly stated so, but with that being the situation I really can't produce any "press" on the matter. The label is now defunct and it's a years old, dead in the water situation. Being that it was a signed, internationally touring, professional band I'd say it doesn't fall under the reasoning on your list of reasons to delete things. It's part of the accurate history of a band. I can send you a copy of the song if you would like, but other than that it doesn't exist. The point of me writing about it was to let people know that it DID exist and how we ended up getting out of one record contract and into another. It was a vital part of the history of the band that no one knows about. Just seems silly is all and while I see that perhaps this works in some situations, it's definitely not on par with your examples: "the band you started with your friends, (even the ones that are so close to being noticed/signed/gigged) the shop down the street that sells good donuts." The rest of The Banner's page is a fairly detailed page and having been in it for years I can tell you you're doing the opposite of fact finding in this situation. You've simply deleted facts.

HiJohnCD you were most helpful the other day in helping with the establishmen of the page, I was wondering if you could assist again on the talk by adding constructive crit. The problem may have been that I have based the article on other ones such as 'Burnistoun','Abderite Theatre Company', 'Scotland the What?', 'Comedy Unit'. And thought I was establishing a good factual based article for others to develop later. Any help would be appreciated? Would it be better if I just got somebody else to do it? Do I need more references? A lot of articles appear to have no references whatsoever. Any help appreciated. Steverance (talk) 10:35, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
Hi JohnCD.
Again someone seems to wilfully ignore Wikipedia's aims and seeks to hurt me personally by placing or reverting to offensive comments on a page about me - Will Hanrahan. John, I would be most grateful if the page about me was regularly watched to avoid this happening. Indeed, I would be happy for it to be deleted for the time being. I did not write it, have spent some time taking away comments attributed to me which I did not make and removing some hyperbole which seems to have been listed from a BBC site. offtoriorob did a brilliant job on April 11th of allowing the hurtful reversion to remain for only a few minutes - but it is a shame it has to be done.

Hi JohnCD,
you deleted my entry about "Sunta und die Klauses", a band which is very close to my heart on the grounds that it had no relevant information regarding the band. I can provide any information you require regarding this band, as everything stated was entirely true and relevant to the subject. It would be greatly appreciated if this were reinstated somehow, as there are many people who want to know about this particular band. I would also appreciate it if you would maybe give me some hints as to how I could write an article that won't be considered straight away for speedy deletion as I feel that there are many reasons as to why this should be part of the great online encyclopedia that is Wikipedia.
Thank you Tgreen1550 (talk) 21:52, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

JohnCD,
I am writing from Baltimore, Maryland in the USA. I appreciate the work that you do to edit and organize Wikipedia. It is because of people like you that the site remains relevant, useful, and uncluttered by nonsense.
However, I think you are in error about your repeted deletion of the entry for Mary L Washington.
The Wikipedia policy for unimportant topics reads:
"A7. No indication of importance (individuals, animals, organizations, web content). An article about a real person, individual animal(s), an organization (e.g. band, club, company, etc., except schools), or web content that does not indicate why its subject is important or significant. This is distinct from verifiability and reliability of sources, and is a lower standard than notability. This criterion applies only to articles about web content and to articles about people, organizations, and individual animals themselves, not to articles about their books, albums, software, or other creative works. This criterion does not apply to species of animals, only to individual animal(s). 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. The criterion does apply if the claim of significance or importance given is not credible. If the claim's credibility is unclear, you can improve the article yourself, propose deletion, or list the article at articles for deletion."
I would contend that a candidate for public office is, in fact, an important and significant person. The fact that we live far from you geographically does not mean that our electoral politics are irrelevant or uninportant. I feel quite certain that serious, credible candidates for public office are people of significance, regardless of whether they are in England, the US, or the Middle East.
Under the A7 rule, it does not matter whether the article could be longer (it should), better cited (it should), or beter cited (it should). These are all editing tasks that need to be accomplished, and I am happy for people to comment on ways to improve the entry. But once the article mentions credibly that she is a candidate for public office, the deletion provisions of A7 no longer apply.
Thank you very much.

Hey JohnCD I'm fairly new to Wikipedia, so I totally respect your decision to delete the article.

Hi, I am wondering if I tagged this correctly. At first I tagged it ((db-person)) (because it has a real person's facebook link in it), and then I tagged it ((vandalism)) because of the title. Which is right? Thanks, Xtzou (Talk) 19:30, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
Thanks for cleaning that speedy deletion request off Ryan Morrison, it was placed there in error. You are correct that it's recent history is just vandalism and the article itself is fine beyond that. Sorry for the noise.--RadioFan (talk) 20:25, 8 May 2010 (UTC)
Original quote:
For a policy reason, I would cite the passage in WP:BLP#Presumption in favor of privacy about: "...dealing with individuals whose notability stems largely or entirely from being victims of another's actions. Wikipedia editors must not act, intentionally or otherwise, in a way that amounts to participating in or prolonging the victimization." JohnCD (talk) 13:22, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
See my ANI response:
In essence, we need to decide what we want to include and then be consistent. The Mrs. Duffy issue potentially has the issue of supporters having one opinion and opponents having another. Once we are consistent, then that problem can be reduced. Should we come up with a practice that Wikipedia will not have obscure stuff, just mainstream stuff? Or everything goes? If we have a policy of "I will decide once I see it", then there will constantly be conflict. Suomi Finland 2009 (talk) 15:27, 9 May 2010 (UTC)
Douglaseivindhall left a message on my talk page prior to being blocked and he said he wants to edit as Douglaseivindhall. Consider blocking Dhall10067 indefinitely and change the indef block to temporary for Douglaseivindhall. Marcus Aurelius (talk) 16:14, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
Hi John, Thank you for your message and tips. I'm looking forward to being a contributor in the Wiki community. Cheers, EmilyPalm (talk) 20:36, 12 May 2010 (UTC)
This actually doesn't meet the speedy guidelines. It is not an attack page. Per the target's article page, and his youtube channel]. Please try to do a little research on things before deleting, but I could see how this could happen. Therefore I am recreating the redirects. Cheer. Adam in MO Talk 09:20, 13 May 2010 (UTC)

Good close. I totally forgot to block Peoplemedia (talk · contribs) during all my cleanup, so I'm glad you did that... — Scientizzle 22:18, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
