Dear Ian,

I appreciate that you are a keen community Misplaced Pages community member and wish to remove enteries which you think damage the site however be careful to not over police.

I see you have added a an AfD tag to the site televisionfreedom.com

May I please ask why this was done? as this site is currently advertised on the London Underground and does fall under the category 'not notable'.

If you beleive the entry needs expanding this is a different matter.

Regards and keep up the good work.
{{unsigned|81.153.43.139}}

:Thank you for your comments. I tagged this article for a community vote of deletion as I feel it is website spam. Also all other parties who have participated in the vote so far have opted delete, which shows the community also feel it should be removed. I respect that you may feel it is worthwhile, but dosen't seem to think so, and I am unable to find a link to the website on the first few pages, dispite talk on other sites. I feel it is not notable, and does not have the status to be included within an encyclopedia. The key quote you mentioned was ''currently advertised on the London Underground''; anyone can do that with the relevent resources, but please refer to ]. And please remember WP '''is''' an encyclopedia dispite that all can contribute. Please do not hesitate to contact me. (And also note I ask all comments are signed with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>) ] ] 18:32, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Dear Ian,

Thanks for your response. I realise that an encyclopedia does not usually include business names and that this site is not not meant to be a propoganda machine, but then again there seems to be massive inconsistency with regards to this issue.

For example,why is a company like Ryan Air on the site along with hundreds of others? Purely because it is well-known owing to its massive resources and advertising campaigns ( including on the London Underground);-)

The fact that something is not listed on Google is also a matter of financial resources, clever meta-tags, back-linking to other sites etc and does not in and of itself justify an entry.

I am certainly not blaming you for this and I realise your concerns are shared by others, but if you dlete sites like this you would presumambly need to delete virtually every business entry.
--] 18:56, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

:I fully understand your viewpoint. In the end it is just what the community feels is relevent, and a site with a good google place and many links is generally considered that. Personally I would view that a expancive website (I am not discrediting yours, however I expect a good 30 pages for a site with full article). POV also needs to be taken into account, and although the article is well writen, it would possibily be more suitated to a section in an article about telecommunication servies. I have been in your position myself, and it is not an easy one. I would consider in a year or six months time returning creating a '''full''' article (bit more contentful and insightful), or finding a place in another suitable article (if the current is deleted). I myself only act to highlight possible articles to the community, so they can judge. I also see how it is unfair that some articles are kept and others dropped, but I would say there is a level of content expected (esp. for websites) that your article does not quite meet. A more suited title like 'Television Freedom' may seem less like an advertising plot. Please do not take any of the points I have highlighted personally. ] ] 19:16, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

::Also please consider the huge levels of spam and vandalism WP recieves. It is very hard to consider every case fully before deciding what to do. (Put forth block request, revert any edits, put for speedy delete, AfD ect.) so I try as much as possible to judge correctly, the problem is that everyone sees the world differently too. ] ] 19:20, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Dear Ian,

I take your comments on board and I thank you for taking the time to reply in a well-balanced manner.
The site is not actually mine, but this is besides the point.

Carry on the polcing but don't get addicted. :-)

== Multiple AFDs ==

Ian, I am concerned with the number of afd's you brought in the past few minutes. For one, it doesn't seem that you completed the afd process...which involves placing <nowiki> {{subst:afd2|text=}} on the article's afd page and adding it to that day's afd page</nowiki>. I found that because I checked the AFD page for ], which had been afd'd before and was redirected to a mario article. An anon changed the redirect to the current crappy article, so I believe that the best course would have been to revert the changes back to the redirect.

I would go ahead and do this for you (at least on Angry Sun, I didnt look at the others...but suspect they could also be redirected to the same article), but I don't want to interfere and remove afd tags if you *really* want to bring another afd.

Please respond here or on my ] page and let me know. --] 18:11, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

:Yes, I am dealing with rather a lot, all done by the same user. I am rather new, so wasn't sure how to go about this process, so you are most welcome to change some if you feel nessarry. ] ] 18:14, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

::Ok, let me take a look. Heh my connection to wikipedia is a little slow, so it may take me a few mins :) --] 18:15, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

:::The idea was to create one AfD vote page for all of the nominated articles, however I am not sure how effectively this has worked. And yes, it is rather slow at the moment. ] ] 18:18, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

::::Yeah, I see the afd page now. I'm still investigating (and unblanking the anon's talk page) so I'll either just comment on the big afd page (and add it to the afd log for today) or re-set the redirects if enough of them were pointing the same place. Either case I'll let you know here. :) --] 18:29, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

==Japanese redirects==
I have been looking through the information at ] and can find no explicit reason to take action with regard to the list of redirects recently created by ]. If you wish to have them removed, you may list the redirects at ] and see how the community views them. As these redirects may be viewed a equivalent to redirecting European city names from the locally used name to the English equivalent (i.e. Firenze &rarr; Florence or Wien &rarr; Vienna), I am unsure of how such nominations would be received. --'']''&nbsp;<sup>]</sup> 13:03, 21 November 2005 (UTC)
