  • 10:27 4 Jan 2003 . . Vera Cruz ()
Created by banned user? Vera wasn't banned on January 4, and bans are not retroactive last time I checked. The other reasons are a pretty poor excuse for skipping VFD. This is really unacceptable. I've restored the history. -- Tim Starling 06:26 23 Jul 2003 (UTC)
Subsequently redeleted about a month later - replacement article at theories of the New Imperialism. Martin

Real album - needs POV fixing (IE, delete last sentence). Martin 19:38, 15 Nov 2003 (UTC)

IPCC TAR summary conflict

IPCC TAR summary conflict. Undelete and redirect, please - no need to break this link. Martin 09:14, 5 Sep 2003 (UTC)

What's the use of a redirect to the user talk space? This causes problems for those who reuse our data but only download the article pages, not the user pages. Angela 07:11, 6 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Sorry, should have specified - I intended to redirect it to IPCC, since the material that was there (and is now in user space) should eventually end up at that article. Martin 22:22, 7 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Ok, that makes more sense. Undeleted. Angela 22:27, 7 Sep 2003 (UTC)

King & Spalding

Undeleted by Angela on 6 September.

Finding child pornography on the Internet

The article was posted on October 9 and deleted on the same day. In the deletion log it's said that "Evercat deleted "Finding child pornography on the Internet" (content was: 'Listed on Wikipedia:Votes for Deletion')", but it definitely is not there now and in any case it wasn't listed there for 7 days. The article does not fit any of the 9 criteria for speedy deletion, so it should be undeleted.

While the article is definitely controversial in topic, this is not a sufficient reason for deletion. The article also contains some useful and rare factual information. The article itself is also completely legal is most countries (confirmed by a brief comment from a professional lawyer) and activities described there are legal in at least some. Deleting an article in violation of Wikipedia procedures only because some people are not comfortable with the topic is not good. This article should be undeleted. Paranoid 22:20, 9 Oct 2003 (UTC)

I have undeleted this in order that people can see the content and discuss it. But I'm uncomfortable with leaving this in the article mainspace, so I have moved it to User:Cyan/Internet child pornography. -- Cyan 22:54, 9 Oct 2003 (UTC)
The article has been moved to User:Paranoid/Internet child pornography. -- Cyan 22:45, 28 Oct 2003 (UTC)
Seems like in started as, and continues to be, an advocacy piece. Delete. orthogonal 19:16, 11 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Delete. It links to pages with nude children. I won't argue that for those pages to have those non-sexual images is wrong, but we shouldn't link to them, only mention them. - Arthur George Carrick
Probably illegal. Stay deleted. (Illegality should also be reason enough for speedy deletion) DJ Clayworth 17:48, 12 Nov 2003 (UTC)

I have put the article back into the article space, at Internet child pornography. This was extensively discussed at the time, and there was not only no consensus to delete the article, but in fact majority support (in the opinion poll on the talk page) for keeping it. -- Oliver P. 01:24, 16 Nov 2003 (UTC)

I think this is the best solution. --Daniel C. Boyer 20:32, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Canadian year pages

The hundred or so articles that used to be listed at Timeline of Canadian history. They were listed on VfD for only a few hours before being deleted. The new articles are already too long, and they contain at most 10% of the content that I am preparing to add. The articles are also much less useful in this new form. - SimonP 05:36, Nov 19, 2003 (UTC)

Lake Clifton Eastern High School

Perfectly valid-looking article deleted by User:RickK without listing on Vfd. Such blatant abuses of sysop powers are really starting to annoy me now. I might start making formal complaints. -- Oliver P. 01:24, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Oh, please do complain. You'll notice that the article even mentions that the school will no longer exist soon. Let's please not keep creating these bogus articles. RickK 01:28, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)

I've undeleted it. If the reason for deleting it was that it soon won't exist, that's not a good reason (other things that no longer exist include Beethoven, Atlantis, and the Roman Empire). It needs work, and it needs to be deorphaned, but it's fine to keep. --Camembert
That's your opinion. There are a number of users who feel that high schools don't need their own articles. I've listed it on VfD. RickK 01:34, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Whether or not we should keep the article is a matter of opinion, and seeking those opinions is precisely what Wikipedia:Votes for deletion is for. Whether or not sysops are allowed to delete articles without following the deletion policy is a separate question entirely, and as far as I am aware there is still a consensus that they are not. -- Oliver P. 02:09, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
nod. Martin 03:09, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Sunset High School

Also deleted without listing on Vfd. -- Oliver P. 02:16, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)

The policy states that if something is deleted out-of-process it may be instantly undeleted, which imo is what you should have done. This page is not the place to air your differences of opinion with RickK. Angela
Does it? Oh... I thought we were meant to list here, even if we felt they were out of process. Maybe the intro to this page needs fixing? Martin 02:25, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Well I thought it did but I can't find it now. Should it? Angela
No idea. I love conversations like this for highlighting how much we're making it up as we go along. People must come to us, now with more market share than slashdot, expecting big things and incisive comment and decisive action and organisation - but we really are just a bunch of amateurs... it's funny.
What if I think a deletion was in-process and you think it was out-of-process? That's the worst case, imo. Martin 02:40, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Well there's no such thing as a professional deletion policy writer is there? Anyway, I rewrote the policy to make it look like I was right all along. Comments, reverts etc welcome there. :) Angela 02:53, 23 Nov 2003 (UTC)

Brianism

Brianism - This article was prematurely deleted. VfD (by my count, I could be wrong) was split 5 for and 5 against. Vote was only 5 days. Discussion was ongoing and productive. - UtherSRG 20:29, 16 Jan 2004 (UTC)

Yellow Pig Day

See also Wikipedia:Votes for undeletion/deleted for the first time it was deleted and placed on VfU

Consensus on vfd was to keep. Anthony DiPierro 01:57, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Undelete! Thanks for catching this, Anthony. Not a reposting of earlier content; I had no idea the page had existed before. Certainly a real day; new information (that many people knew of/celebrated this day) changed opinions about keeping/deleting. +sj+ 19:47, 2004 Feb 20 (UTC)
Also -- just saw this note on the [former deletion] of the page... sorry that some YP fan was being a punk. It's ok by me if ppl decide again to delete this, but I promise I'm not related to any of those sock puppets. Could we at least put this back on VfD? [Some people] take the celebration [very seriously].
Keep deleted. Was recreation of previously deleted page. --Wik 02:03, Feb 15, 2004 (UTC)
Undelete. Everyking 01:26, 16 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Keep deleted - Texture 05:52, 20 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Undelete. Yes, a recreation of a previously deleted page, but this time we got some verification that this was real and promises to make it a better page. Let's give it a run and see if it turns out worthwhile. —Morven 04:32, 22 Feb 2004 (UTC)
Undelete. YP Day may be a math geek in-joke, but it's nonetheless something with a real following (among math geeks). Robert Southworth 17:54, 27 Feb 2004 (UTC)
The lack of consensus on the second deletion has not been contested, so I've undeleted this. Angela. 18:59, Feb 27, 2004 (UTC)


W. Thomas Smith, Jr.

W. Thomas Smith, Jr. was a controversial delete at the time, w/ much discussion on VfD. I believe that he passes the 5000-readers test, which did not exist at the time of deletion. Meelar 22:22, 16 Feb 2004 (UTC)

noxious trade

The page has the VfD message added on the 17th January. I can't see when it was actually deleted though, or who deleted it. I don't know why this is. theresa knott 17:24, 3 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Ok I found it in the deletions log. "20:34, Jan 22, 2004 Angela deleted "Noxious trade" (listed on VfD and moved to Wiktionary) So it looks in order to me.theresa knott 17:31, 3 Apr 2004 (UTC)

It should be undeleted. The wikipedia should have a list of occupations which are considered to be part of the "noxious trades" Lirath Q. Pynnor

Temasek Secondary School

Deleted after going through VfD with the summary "listed on vfd for six days, consensus to delete", but on the (also deleted) Template:VfD-Temasek Secondary School I see ten votes to delete versus six to keep, which I wouldn't call consensus (if I'd seen the vote in time, it would've been 7-10). Also, all of those votes were made before the article was expanded a bit by Tim Starling, and I see no reason in policy for the page as it was in its final state to have been deleted. --Camembert 15:37, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

After deleting the article I discovered that some of the discussion had been added to the main vfd page and not to Template:VfD-Temasek Secondary School. I would suggest looking at the history of Wikipedia:Votes for deletion to get the full tally which was, if I remember correctly, 12 votes to delete v. 6 to keep. -- Graham  :) | Talk 15:40, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Thanks for pointing that out (though I make it 11-6). I'd still like it to be undeleted, since, as I say, all the votes were made before Tim expanded the article (it wasn't by much, I admit, but it turned it from an uber-stub to just a regular one-paragraph stub). --Camembert
Well I don't have a problem with that myself. -- Graham  :) | Talk 16:59, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Even if it were 12-6, you're pushing it to say that is a consensus. Taking into account other factors, such as the article having additions made after some of these votes, I'd say there isn't a case for deleting this. I've undeleted. Angela. 19:40, Apr 24, 2004 (UTC)


Donald Adams

Needs to be undeleted so that it can be properly transwikied to sep11 wiki. The page history is missing from that site. anthony (see warning) 23:54, 20 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Meg White

It was ugly, but I think Fuzheado deleted it without cause. It could have been wikified into an article. RickK 04:48, 12 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Rallos Zek

Appears to have been deleted through speedy deletion. Did not, from summary on deletion log, fulfill qualifications for SD. Rallos Zek is in fact god of war in EverQuest, there is a PvP server named after him, etc. Maybe a case could be made for a VfD listing (Though I'd oppose deleting there too), but it was not a case for speedy deletion. Snowspinner 16:09, 12 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Koss

It was an accurate sub-sub-stub that was deleted by someone before anyone else got a chance to expand it. --Zigger 16:12, 2004 May 17 (UTC)

Keep deleted. The entire content was "A company that makes sound stuff". There is no reason to undelete this. It provides no useful information whatsoever and would waste the time of anyone clicking on a link to it. Angela. 02:06, May 18, 2004 (UTC)
Keep deleted. If you want to write a real article, nobody's stopping you, but what was there was nonsense. RickK 19:29, 20 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
I accept that it was a valid candidate for speedy deletion on the basis of shortness, but not because of lack of facts or patent nonsense. That short (and short-lived) article was enough for me to want to help expand it. We now have a Koss disambiguation page, and a Koss Corporation stub. I would have liked to provide attribution for the original contributor. If I do get around to writing a "real article" on Koss, thanks for the permission :-). --Zigger 09:57, 2004 May 23 (UTC)
Since a real article exists there now, I've undeleted the original six words to keep the author attribution. Angela. 12:11, May 24, 2004 (UTC)

Trip Hawkins

I authored an article on Trip Hawkins a while back, but it's been deleted. I didn't see it listed on VfD, it's just gone! As the founder of Electronic Arts and 3DO, I think he is worthy of an article. Does anyone know what happened to it and why it was killed? —Frecklefoot 20:30, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

From the deletion log:-
05:38, 13 May 2004 Dysprosia deleted "Trip Hawkins" (just an external link - content was: '==External links==* [http://www.fuckedcompany.com/ Digital Chocolate website]((msg:stub))').
Lee (talk) 20:36, 19 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

It was a full article at one point. You can see the cache of it here. However, it was ofen vandalized (apparently by a digruntled former employee of 3DO). I suspect the same person trimmed it down to the link and Dysprosia deleted it. The history would have shown the correct, full article. Is there some way to restore it? —Frecklefoot 20:42, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

I expect the deletion was accidental. I've undeleted it now and reverted to an earlier version. Angela. 20:45, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

Thanks, Angela. Yes, I suspect the deletion was accidental too. I didn't think Dysprosia knowingly deleted a legit article. Now if we could just get the vandal to stop vandalizing it... —Frecklefoot 20:50, May 19, 2004 (UTC)

How to learn a language

Keep- The reason given was it belongs in the Wikibooks, (Categorical) if so then the whole How tos should be transferred. The article is not mature yet to be a book. It gives useful advice that people don't normally do. --Jondel 04:37, 2 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Reinhard Hauff

Stubbish article about a German director. RickK 00:07, 20 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

It's borderline. I don't think Guanaco was wrong to delete it, but I have no objection to it being undeleted. Entire content was "German Film Director Directed and wrote many movies in Germany during the late sixties to early ninties." Angela. 00:56, May 20, 2004 (UTC)
Please recreate. That's more than I knew about him, and this will probably expand eventually. Meelar 18:17, 20 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]
Undelete. The information is not very extensive but it's enough for a stub. Worth remembering that search engine hits on stubs, even very short ones, are likely to be a significant source of editors for an article, one which isn't going to be present if the article isn't around. Jamesday 16:30, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Per the undeletion policy I've undeleted and expanded this article, seeing three undelete votes (assuming RickK to be suggesting undelete), one neutral and no opposing votes. The expansion appears likely to resolve the doubts of the neutral voter. Still rather stubby, though. Jamesday 17:05, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Keep the expanded and cleaned up version. Guanaco 17:17, 3 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Template:BPOV and Template:BPOVbecause

Update 02:30, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC): These templates were created ten hours before the injunction took effect. They were improperly deleted. Please be reminded that their content is not relevant, it is their improper deletion which is the issue. - Vague | Rant 02:30, Jan 8, 2005 (UTC) These templates were deleted because User:CheeseDreams has a temporary injunction from editing articles: [3]. A template is not an article, and these two templates should not have been deleted. They were, at the time of deletion, on TFD: [4]. The TFD process should be allowed to be completed, and as such these templates will need to be restored. - Vague | Rant 10:46, Jan 7, 2005 (UTC)

Sex Diet

I created a Sex Diet article. It was deleted for being an advert, which is ridiculous. My only guess is that the person who deleted it was not educated on the subject. I know the name is "sensational", but a Sex Diet is actually recognized by members of both the American Academy of Clinical Sexologists and the Female Sexual Medical Center at UCLA School of Medicine. If you speak to a sexologist about a Sex Diet and sexual nutrition, chances are pretty good they are familiar with it.

I'm guessing that the "advert" claim is because of the link to the book site. I only put that link up because it is the only current comprehensive book on the matter. It would be just as easy to take the link down but I think it's helpful for anyone who wants to learn about it (I'm not going to sit here and type in all 150 pages of a copywritten book). Heck, if you don't like what I wrote, research it for yourself and edit it, but don't delete it. (above from User:Lovelyrita)

High Tauern[edit]

There used to be this page which I created on November 5 on the basis of the one in the German Wikipedia article([5]). The page seems to have just dissappeared, without me noticing, even though I was watching the page and still am. I couple of pages, including a redirect, are linking to it. I fail to see a reason for deletion. Martg76 23:06, 28 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Defunct Games

I created a article for Defunct Games yesterday, and it seems to be missing, there is no VfD history or anything... and i looked at the description for speedy deletion, and it doesnt seem to have violated any of those rules.

Defunct Games is a NPO, and was not put in here for advertizing... I figure if you have Burger King, Pepsi, and numurous other companies, then why not Defunct Games... if you want a better detailed description, let me know, I can supply anything that would make it a valid entry

User talk:Arminius

from delete log -- 13:48, 31 Dec 2004 Arminius deleted User talk:Arminius (time to go)

this does not fall under the criteria in CSD. it is inappropriate for an admin to delete the history of their correspondence. it is inappropriate for an admin to delete a page with no supporting policy. it is particularly inappropriate to do so given that page's role in the recent arbcom case concerning Arminius. this admin recreated page shortly after deletion, but with all history missing and has activily continued as an admin since the deletion of his talk page [6]. Wolfman 03:23, 13 Jan 2005 (UTC)

You're right, it doesn't fall under CSD. I undeleted the page history and left him a note. But, since the arbcom case was closed, he can have the page deleted under option 7 of "Other pages" on CSD. —Ben Brockert (42) UE News 04:25, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)
I'm not sure I understand. You're saying WP:CSD doesn't allow admins to delete their own user pages, but they can ask another admin to delete their user pages for them? I don't think that necessarily follows from WP:CSD, and I don't think it's common practice either (thought I may be mistaken on that last bit). --fvw* 04:37, 2005 Jan 13 (UTC)
Pretty much. It is to prevent the type of abuse that Wolfman is alleging. If something isn't specifically allowed on CSD, you aren't supposed to delete it. In the same theme, you can't block yourself from editing, but you can ask someone else to block you from editing. —Ben Brockert (42) UE News 04:42, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)
Two heads are better than one. It's bad enough admins insist on protecting their own subpages when there is no history of vandalism. Deletion of user pages should involve two people. -- Netoholic @ 04:47, 2005 Jan 13 (UTC)

Mycosis Fungoides

Content was: 'A form of lymph cancer characterized by scaly skin patches. It progresses over several years to form elevated skin lesions and then tumors.' Kappa 08:28, 19 Jan 2005 (UTC)

You know the entire content of the article, so you could have just re-created it. I undeleted it, because it's on the edge of "Very short article with little or no context". If it's not improved in 24 hours, it will get VfD'd. —Ben Brockert (42) UE News 08:52, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)
Wow, you're quick. I was about to move the article, but you beat me to it. I listed it on cleanup. —Ben Brockert (42) UE News 08:58, Jan 19, 2005 (UTC)

  • Yes thank you Starblind, good job. I didn't want to recreate it myself because I wouldn't feel comfortable taking credit for it, and also that would be a violation of the Gnu license. Kappa 05:51, 20 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Route 128 Station

This was deleted in October 2004. The article fits perfectly into Wikipedia:WikiProject Stations. It's not even a questionable rural station that sees one train a week - it's served by Amtrak's Acela Express high-speed service, as well as the MBTA's commuter rail, and is a major station, if a bit spartan, for people south of Boston. The vote was 4-2, not even really a consensus. --SPUI 23:03, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Jam 1575

This is an article about a UK student radio station which is listed in List of UK radio stations. Please have a look at this list before commenting on this undeletion request. I would like somebody to give me a valid reason why this particular radio station should be deleted while others on this list should not. The station broadcasts on AM, like many other stations in this list, and is a community radio station, like many others in this list - it is no more 'unnotable' than them. This article was also much more detailed than the articles of many of the other stations in the list.

There is no Wikipedia policy on radio station articles, so rather than telling me whether or not the VfD was legit, I would like someone to tell me the reasoning behind why someone cherry picked this particluar station for deletion out of the many which are listed and have articles on Wikipedia. This list was becoming a comprehensive guide to UK radio stations, a small and very useful part of Wikipedia which people should be proud of. Instead, people whith little apparent knowledge of this part of Wikipedia seem intent on taking parts of it away, without respect for the comprehensiveness or usefulness of this list. Please restore this article so that it can exist alongside other articles for other stations which are just as notable as this one. PJBeef 01:59 5 January 2005 (UTC)

((cleanup-tone))Einstein was working as a Patent Clerk in Bern, but the cash was tight so he totally decided to start tutoring physics (because he's so good at it - LOL). Well, he tutored a dude who turned into his buddy, and they would totally just chit chat all night about physics and philosophy, so Einstein couldn't really charge him anymore, unless he was going to be an unfair jerk. They got some other buddies together and had regular meetings where they talked about crap. Einstein's woman apparently came to the meetings too, but she didn't talk much or something. The Olympia Academy was probably pretty important for the foundations of a lot of Einstein's personal philosophy, and physics theories. Peace.

Falling Up (band)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falling_Up_%28band%29 was deleted by a VFD apparently around April 9th, unknown to me. I never knew a falling up band article had ever been created, and I wrote an entirely new one. The main reason given for the band to be deleted was that they had made only one CD independantly and were therefore non-notable, whereas in reality they were signed on to BEC recordings, a major Christian label that also produces for big Christian Contemporary names like Jeremy Camp, Kutless. (Take a look at http://www.becrecordings.com/front.php). As well, there is a precedent for single-album Christian Contemporary bands on the wikipedia--for example, Casting crowns. To summarize -My article was different from the article deleted and should, at the least, get a separate VFD. -The reason for the VFD (independant release and therefore non-notability) was untrue since they were signed on to BEC. -Please put my article back :) -Cookiemobsta

Agreed that a separate VFD is needed if it wasn't a re-creation of the old one. Can an admin verify this? --SPUI (talk) 23:19, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Maha Jana High School

Solid proof that this school exists is provided at this official Indian National Information Centre site for the Erode elections, which shows that the school has been used as a polling station: [7]. This site was inaugurated by the chief returning officer--who presides over elections in Tamil Nadu.

I was sifting through some of the old deletion debates and noticed that this one was red in spite of consensus to keep (or "no consensus" which is almost the same thing). The debate is at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Maha Jana High School. Also when I looked at the deletion log I found these entries

Strange, why would people fight so vehemently over redirects? I suspect that there is something in the page history of Maha Jana which should be undeleted per the VfD debate. Note that I am listing this merely as a policy issue, usually I avoid VfD debates about high schools. Sjakkalle 12:51, 5 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Undeleted, VfD'd, kept.

9 undeletes; 5 keep deleteds, one of which was struck; two comments. A better article on the same topic existed at Gustavus Swift and was moved over the deleted page. The old history was then undeleted under the better page. —Ben Brockert (42) UE News 05:29, May 16, 2005 (UTC)

New stub written, history undeleted.

A1 (rocket), A2 (rocket) etc

See Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/A1 (rocket). Including A1, A2, A5, A7, A8, A9, A11, A12 as far as I can tell. These were all speedied with "merged" as the reason given. Some still have red links to them. Should be recreated and then redirected, to preserve history. Kappa 06:31, 15 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Articles undeleted, merged properly, and redirected. —Ben Brockert (42) UE News 02:10, May 26, 2005 (UTC)
