I had just declined the A7 speedy deletion of [[Thorybos]] as they made a claim of significance (15 albums released and a world record) and was in the midst of cleaning it up when you deleted it under A7. Would you mind restoring it so I can finish wikifying it? --[[User:Ponyo|<b><font color="Navy">''Jezebel's''</font></b><font color="Navy">Ponyo</font>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Ponyo|<font color="Navy">''bons mots''</font>]]</sup> 21:37, 5 December 2011 (UTC) |

:Cheers for that. Not sure if the band will ultimately meet [[WP:NMUSIC]] but I'm going to try to separate the wheat from the chaff. --[[User:Ponyo|<b><font color="Navy">''Jezebel's''</font></b><font color="Navy">Ponyo</font>]]<sup>[[User_talk:Ponyo|<font color="Navy">''bons mots''</font>]]</sup> 21:47, 5 December 2011 (UTC) |

I had a declined A7 speedy deletion of [[ByWater Solutions LLC]] but the company is significant because it's one of 3 Koha support companies in the US and the other two have pages on Wikipedia. The company was named the top in the industry for support last year and also several citations and references were added to provide accurate information. Would you mind restoring it so I can continue working on it? --Talia 21:48, 9 December 2011 (UTC) <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Talia679|Talia679]] ([[User talk:Talia679|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Talia679|contribs]]) </span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

==NFL templates== |

Hello NawlinWiki. Since you are the one who protected the templates [[Template:PackersQuarterbacks]] and [[Template:JetsQuarterbacks]], I wonder wondering if you would move them to [[Template:Green Bay Packers starting quarterback navbox]] and [[Template:New York Jets starting quarterback navbox]], respectively. I've been trying to standardize the names of [[:Category:National Football League starting quarterback navigational boxes]] which only had four names moved to away from the CamelCase style of template naming before I came there. — [[User:Moe Epsilon|<font color="DD0000">Moe</font>]] [[User talk:Moe Epsilon|<font color="0000FF">ε</font>]] 22:45, 5 December 2011 (UTC) |

Hallo! You have deleted the page [[Selton]] that I've made. I've re-written the article correcting the errors. Do you think that in this way is acceptable? If no, what is the problem? |

*The problem is that you haven't made any showing that Selton meets our notability standards for bands, see [[WP:MUSIC]], or that Selton has been recognized as notable in reliable independent sources, see [[WP:V]].

*[[Selton]] made some featurings with two famous italian artist: [[Enzo Jannacci]] e [[it:Cochi e Renato]]. Moreover they took part in a show on MTV with [[it:Fabio Volo]], a famous italian showman.

*Language like "Opengear’s commitment is to deliver solutions that secures and simplifies remote management tasks while providing IT and security professionals with tangible cost savings benefits and high ROI." is advertising.

== Deletion Confict == |

I am new to Wiki. In my searching, I found that there are not many resources regarding local agriculture, specifically the importance of cooperatives. In the process of trying to figure out why my page was being attacked, it was deleted. The company I was writing about is one of teh oldest agricultural institutions in our city. The fact that a handful of "poor farmers" built it to make things better, and grew the company to its current size is amazing. Why is it that this would be deleted? No advertisement was listed, simply facts. I am happy to cite my information, but other than tax documents and such - no book has been written about the company. I guess I am confused, because there are several companies with similar pages that I see as less significant, but they havent been deleted. Will you please restore my page? <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Richard.ohara|Richard.ohara]] ([[User talk:Richard.ohara|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Richard.ohara|contribs]]) 20:25, 7 December 2011 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

I guess I created some random article about my life. Sorry!!! Am I embarrassed. And all because I forgot a stupid "/". Hope I didn't cause the collapse of Wikipedia. :) Thanks for the help.

== Contested prod == |

Just to let you know, I've contested the prod on [[chicken and chips]]. I've done a bit of cleaning up on it - it still needs a lot doing, but I think it's a viable article. See for example [[fish and chips]] for a similar article. — An [[User:Optimist on the run|'''<span style="color:#A00000">optimist'''</span>]] on the ''[[User Talk:Optimist on the run|run]]!'' 10:52, 8 December 2011 (UTC) |

==Let's Do It! World== |
|||
Hello, you have deleted an article I wrote today about Let's Do It! World. I understand it was deleted because of "Unambiguous advertising or promotion". I tried to make it objective as possibe - but I guess I did something wrong? Would it be possible to undelete it so I could fix the problems? <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Martinn13|Martinn13]] ([[User talk:Martinn13|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Martinn13|contribs]]) 19:26, 9 December 2011 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |
|||
*The article wasn't at all objective - it was entirely laudatory of the project (including exclamation points), and went on at length urging readers to join. Please review [[Wikipedia:Neutral point of view]]. In the meantime, I've moved it to your userspace at [[User:Martinn13/Let's Do It! World draft]].[[User:NawlinWiki|NawlinWiki]] ([[User talk:NawlinWiki#top|talk]]) 20:28, 9 December 2011 (UTC) |
|||
::I believe the exclamation point is part of the article subject's name. What it needs are citations to independent coverage. NawlinWiki I think you need to slow down. You could also help instead of just quickfiring and assuming bad faith. Take care. [[User:Candleabracadabra|Candleabracadabra]] ([[User talk:Candleabracadabra|talk]]) 21:02, 9 December 2011 (UTC) |
|||
:::There are other exclamation points, not something usually encountered in an encyclopedia. The article needs to be rewritten into neutral language. I would suggest that you reconsider your approach as well; many of your articles, while they concern notable individuals or companies, rely far too heavily on overtly promotional quotes.

::::The quotes I have used are assessment made by independent media sources. If you find other independent assessments feel free to include those as well. [[User:Candleabracadabra|Candleabracadabra]] ([[User talk:Candleabracadabra|talk]]) 21:35, 9 December 2011 (UTC) |
|||
:::::They are quotes from feel-good feature articles and are inappropriate for an encyclopedia. The manual of style and general Wikipedia policy strongly discourages such quotes, which can in any case be easily recast into neutral language and then sourced to the magazine.

|||
::::::Actually, the descriptions and awards reflect the judgments of a independent panel of experts. I am not opposed to the language being modified to become more encyclopedic, but substituting descriptions of fine crafts that could equally be applied to mass produced wares isn't appropriate. I would expect an article on The [[Four Seasons Hotel]] to differentiate it from a [[Days Inn]]. The fact of the matter is that these are highly regarded craftspeople with expertise in their field. More and better sources are most welcome. [[User:Candleabracadabra|Candleabracadabra]] ([[User talk:Candleabracadabra|talk]]) 21:51, 9 December 2011 (UTC) |

:::::::Rather than continually light up NawlinWiki's new messages bar, I've provided a little context back on your user talk on why extensive quotes are discouraged. We can continue the conversation there.
