Speedy deletion nomination of Moonpig
[edit]A tag has been placed on Moonpig, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam.
If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}}
on the top of Moonpig and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. 217.33.69.50 (talk) 16:38, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Deletion of Acclaim Resource Partners
[edit]Hi Rcawsey, I'm new to the Wikipedia community, but trying to learn the official rules and regulations as quickly as possible of the Wikipedia network. I'm inquiring about a page that was recently added for speedy deletion, but I was not tentative enough to add the {{hangon}} to the top of the article, because I have been out due to bereavement of a father-in-law.
The deletion reason appears to be "does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject." I wasn't sure if this is a special tag that needed to be added to the Acclaim Resource Partners past page or if it's an interpretation of the Wikipedia reviewer. The Acclaim Resource Partners page was a company website that was attempting to communicate a non biased explanation of a full service subrogation company that is developing a process for the trade of subrogation consulting. This trade in the United States and focuses with in insurance carriers and self-insured entities and how parties can resolve a dispute around vehicle insurance, property insurance, workers compensation and health claims resulting in recovery of claims paid on behalf the carrier’s policyholders. Our company is apart of an official organization with in the United States titled the "National Association of Subrogation Professionals" that are referenced on the Wikipedia page about "subrogation" as an External link, which is to enhance the stature and effectiveness of subrogation and recovery professionals and we participate in annual conferences to share our effectiveness of recovery through the different subrogation processes.
Would it be possible to recover the Acclaim Resource Partners Wikipedia page or correct/add any information to the past page that would appease the Wikipedia community or "does not indicate the importance or significance of the subject" notation to preserve a Wikipedia presence?
comment added by AaronWagner
- You could ask the administrator who deleted the article to restore the page, at User talk:SarekOfVulcan, but if you were, say, the Chief Marketing Officer at Acclaim Resource Partners, you might have a conflict of interest, which is frowned on by Wikipedia. Ideally, the article would be created by someone with no vested interest in the company, this indicating its inherent notability. . .Rcawsey (talk) 16:43, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the information you added on the Elfe PM-3 to this article, although it seems to contradict the US FAA registry data. Can you provide a reference that shows that the PM-3 has been in the UK since 1999? Basically everything stated in Wikipedia needs to be properly referenced as explained in policy at WP:V. - Ahunt (talk) 11:42, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for providing the reference. It is unfortunate that it didn't have more detail than it did! I have "massaged the wording" to include more details, plus what it seems we know from the refs. The FAA says it was sold to the same person that the Swiss newsletter says it was, Graham McLean, so I assume that it was just not properly de-registered in the US when it went to the UK, which is why the FAA has it listed as "Status - In Question". - Ahunt (talk) 22:16, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

- Thanks for adding the specs, just to note we dont normally use the type numbers in British aircraft articles if they have a name but as you say it may be confused with the earlier Falke (which is not on the list of types in the Slingsby article!) so I wouldnt have a problem with a rename.

- The article seems meaningless, once the buzzwords are removed nothing is left of any encyclopedic value. Rcawsey (talk) 22:12, 9 December 2008 (UTC)
- I don't want to sound patronising, but please read (or re-read) Wikipedia:Criteria for speedy deletion before you do any further deletion tagging. If you can't find a criterion there which fits the article, then the article isn't speedy-deletable – you certainly can't make up your own deletion criteria when you can't find one to fit, as you appear to have done here; this kind of WP:IDONTLIKEIT tagging just wastes the time of the admins who have to clean up after you. Had you bothered to actually read the history of the article, you'd have noticed that not only was it not a speedy candidate, but it unanimously survived an AFD discussion. – iridescent 22:22, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Some tips: Never go by the current version for deletion. An article may have been subject to vandalism, so there could be a good chance of what you are seeing would have had a much better version written. So do check the history always. Next, we delete articles because they are not-notable, or a blatant copyviolation. We do not delete articles for poor grammar, we use the {{cleanup}} and its variants for such. To get a sense of notability, you can do a google book and google news search and get a feel on what's written on the subject by independent sources.

hi, i notice you have made an edit on the pcubed article i am pulling together. i am pretty new to wikipedia and wondered whether it was your tag that has appeared at the top of the article regarding the content and contribution? if you could let me know that would be great, also, i have been reading through all the links and am still a little confused as to how to get this removed. thanks for your help (T.boyce (talk) 11:07, 12 January 2009 (UTC))
- I have tidied up the references and removed the conflict of interest tag as there are no obvious signs of an improper connection with the company. However it still has a NPOV tag as parts of the article sound like an advertisement and it is lacking in content from independent sources. Hope this helps. . . Rcawsey (talk) 12:12, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
Thanks it is a help, I notice you have added a couple of dead link tags to the refence to the 2007 best places to work. I tried the links again and they do work, is there another reason why the tag is there? With regard to the advertisement sounding parts are there any particular areas that you can outline? I will run through again to see if I can improve it further. Thanks again for your help. (T.boyce (talk) 15:54, 12 January 2009 (UTC))
- You're right; the links were dead this morning but are working now, though reference no. 4 does not seem to relate to Microsoft Office Enterprise Project Management (EPM) Solution. Advertisment sounding parts tend to contain buzzwords and non-Neutral point of view terms, such as Helping organizations to deliver their most challenging initiatives in an efficient way, focusing on the delivery of business goals.

[edit]I just saw that you removed my SD tag from this article without any explanation. I have reinstated the tag; however, if there is a valid reason for removing it I would be more than open to reconsidering the removal.

[edit]- You are right about the jurisdication policy of Wikipedia. Also, please look at that:
- As for the "Move Tab" suggestion: It is very logical. Unfortunately, the old page is recreated for those who are unaware of the related name law. Hence, the old version is re-edited and redirecting tag is removed from them without knowing the issue. We opened this arguement in the deletion review page of Wikipedia ( http://en.wiki.x.io/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_review/Log/2009_February_7 ) and the solution offered is that one.

I actually do have a substantial amount of research, sources and references to write this article. I sat down to write it out last night and after just a few minutes, wikipedia.org went down so I didn't have access to the site for over 6 hours. It appears that during that time you came by and marked the article patrolled and the ever gleeful CambridgeBayWeather couldn't wait to use his delete button.
I understand why you two responded the way you did to the stub you found. Just wanted to let you know it was because of technical problems with the site.
I will develop the article on my userpage sandbox and then publish the full article when it is done to ensure technical problems don't create another roadblock.

Proposed deletion of Kirkcaldie & Staines
[edit]A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Kirkcaldie & Staines, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

issuing warnings
[edit]Hi Rcausey, can I suggest that you consider informing the authors when you tag their pages for deletion? I appreciate there are some occasions when further warnings are superfluous, but if we don't tell people why their article disappeared they won't know what went wrong with their page. Most of the speedy tags generate an easily copied template for the authors user page, and This is a good page for vandal warning templates. ϢereSpielChequers 12:59, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Otherwise, I think it is worth the time and effort to inform the author what the problem is before deleting. --R'n'B (call me Russ) 10:56, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

Tracks in east London
[edit]Sometimes a clean-up in WP turns out to need a much longer edit session than the available time. That was the case yesterday with my making separate articles about the railway line under the Thames. As I see it the detailed early history of the track should be in an article entitled "East London Railway Company", and not in the LU line article (which seems to carry a note about its length). "East London Railway Company" should not redirect to anything but have a hatnote asking "Did you mean This or That?". That much of ELRC history was still in the ELl article was for the reason in my opening sentence. The indiscriminate capitalisation of LU lines strengthens the impression that much railway editing is none too careful and is based on "What I think I know" rather than evidence (an example was the strongly insisted nonsense about the original name of Waterloo station). I mean to look and maybe put things as I see them. Your comments would be welcome--SilasW (talk) 11:55, 7 May 2009 (UTC)

Actium erp
[edit]Thank you for your comment! Can you provide us with more information about your criteria you made use of in tagging our article about Actium ERP as "Unnotable software; borderline spam" !?! There must be something we don't do right! We are not intended to "spam" the readership as much as demonstrate the inter-relation and co-existence of Open Source and Proprietary software. When we compare ourselves with Compiere, SAP Business One and other companies using either type of licensing in the development of their product, we fit right in! So please, can you provide us with more information about the process you make use of in the determination of our presence here representing a "spamming" threat to your readership! We will be glad to oblige! Perhaps is it the format of the article that is a problem; perhaps it is the category it belongs to! One thing is for sure, we have no intent of spamming your readership. Without prejudice! --PMaloney (talk) 21:09, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Deletion of content
[edit]Hi Rcawsey,
Could you please xplain what about the content I updated to a corporate site was deemed "blatant marketing"? I had received alot of feedback from people inquiring about the lack of information on BlackRock. I provided insight into the structure of the company which subsequently received feedback that this content was very useful in researching the firm.
As R'n'B requested, would it be possible that you inform someone before deleting all of their content or atleast notifying that this has been deleted? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rishsk (talk • contribs) 14:52, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
- The Wikipedia article about BlackRock is not a "corporate site", it is supposed to be unbiased and encyclopedic. Hence my deletion of paragraphs like: Since our founding in 1988, BlackRock has come to be known as a problem solver. In times of need, some of the world’s most prominent private and public institutions have turned to BlackRock and our fiduciary mindset, depth in the capital markets, world-class risk management, sophisticated analytics and solutions-driven culture.

A bit more than a week ago, you proposed this article for deletion. I deleted it as uncontested after seven days, but the article was then undeleted by another administrator. So I nominated the article for deletion at WP:AfD. If you would like to comment, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lancaster Community Safety Coalition.

Hello Rcawsey, and thanks for your work patrolling new changes. I am just informing you that I declined the speedy deletion of SMB ABI - a page you tagged - because: if that is the case, it's probably a likely search term, so merge and redirect instead. Please review the criteria for speedy deletion before tagging further pages. If you have any questions or problems, please let me know. SoWhy 13:27, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
Radio Shawty Critised & Offended by Harsh Judgement
[edit]Dear Rcawsey,
Why did you have to add a "speedy-deletion" templete, on an re-assesed, constanly updated article page, that has been edited, more than 20 times, and rejected in the past.
The Radio Shawty team, was highly offened, by your critising judgement. After the article, had been submited 2 hours before, and edited to be error free, more than 10 times, after that.
The Manager, has decided to add the following message (on the bottom of this section) to the articles page, as well the discussion page of the article, on behalve of the Radio Shawty team. Plaese note, you have been informed in the past of addiing "speedy-delete" tags, on unread, and unadmistered articles. My advice to you is, please help, where needed, before judgeing. Cause unlike somepeople, others have a heart.
Thank You Lil' K-Mario (Radio Shawty Conslutant)

Many radio services have an encyclopicdic article, which states, there productions, and establishment.

I am, DJ Real U, Manger of this service, and as such, have illistrated evey aspected needed to produce this professtional, article. And by such, only true cietations, and information has been added. Upon reviewing, this article is a non-spam, and non-corruptive article, and has been approved by its owned firm, U.N.T Media Productions. Even so, this article, has listed its importance, by citeing, that it is "THE ONLY FOUNDED RADIO STATION IN EERSTERUST, SOUTH AFRICA, WITH A RAPID GROWING AUDIANCE OF BETTEWEEN 10 TO 20, NEW LISTERNS, IT CURRENTLY, HOLDS AN AVERAGE OF 47 LISTERNERS. It has also been cieted to be, the number 1, online urban radio service, of Pretoria, and the greater Tshwane region, this is a well-earned successful radio service, with regular donations, it has been blessed.

Hi there. I noticed you added 'COI' and 'NOINTRO' tags to this article some time ago. Well almost immediately afterwards the author, who obviously has a close connection to the subject, simply removed them. I added them back however he removed them, this process has been repeating itself every couple weeks, no matter how many times I explain it to him on his user talk page he simply continues to remove the tags without explanation. Quite frankly I'm a bit sick of it so thought I would bring it to the attention of someone else, he obviously won't listen to me, maybe you will have some luck.
