Current requests

Emerald Editor

I am currently developing Crimson Editor and would like the content of Emerald Editor userfied so I can use it. I will be creating a redirect from Emerald Editor to Crimson Editor since Emerald Editor is not presently notable. Bridgeplayer (talk) 15:38, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

There is nothing worthwhile there for you Bridgeplayer. The entire article reads

Emerald Editor is to be a an open-source replacement for Crimson Editor licensed under the GNU General Public License. Crimson Editor was opensourced on December 29, 2006, but it is built with MFC and therefore is tied to Windows. Emerald Editor will be multiplatform. It is about to start the design phase.

Anchalee Voogd

Anchalee Voogd - Thai Figure Skater this was the "reason" it was deleted. Non-encyclopedic vanity article created by a not-very-notable skater to promote herself) if I valid reason then the folowing pages should also be deleted...at least of the Thai skaters. http://en.wikipedia.org/Phanyaluck_Raisuksiri http://en.wikipedia.org/Amy_Alisara_Arirachakaran if you do not consider it a valid reason then I would also like to do pages on all the skaters on this page: tracings.net/thailand.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.24.52.170 (talk) 17:48, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

• restored as contested prod, has competed at the highest level for her national team so i can't see how she cannot be notable. Spartaz 22:28, 23 December 2009 (UTC)

The Raunch Studio

deleted as advertising? I think

Please tell me what I have done wrong the page that I included the article in was for Recording `studios in London" I thought it was ok to name my own studio here/ I am sorry if this breaks rules I saw all the other studios mentioned and added mine? many thanks Phil

• Not done. Misplaced Pages isn't a place to advertise. Spartaz 11:06, 25 December 2009 (UTC)

Sentrigo

This page was deleted via PROD, and unfortunately I did not see the notice at the time.

As the original author, I attempted to write this article from a neutral POV, following several examples of company overview pages in Misplaced Pages.

SamCERA

I wasn't even notified that it was going to be deleted, and didn't get a chance to protest or refute.

It took me a lot of work to setup that page, please restore it. I don't understand the reason for deletion in the first place.

Here is the reason: 14:59, August 18, 2009 Lifebaka (talk | contribs) deleted "SamCERA" ‎ (Expired PROD, concern was: unnotable organisation)

I don't know what "unnotabel organisation" is? SamCERA has been around for over 65 years.

Thanks for any help.

•  Donebut its vulnerable to being deleted permanently if you don't find some decent sourcing for it. Spartaz 11:43, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

User:Eveswing/Here (2009 film)

There article is still under-construction and would lie to expand further on it. Thanks. eveswing(talk) 10:46, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

•  Done When you put a db tag on the page you asked for it to be deleted. I have undeleted it and moved it into main-space for you. next time you need {{helpme}} :-) Spartaz 11:40, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Thank you very much. eveswing(talk) 13:29, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Participatory democracy

I added a reference on this page on November 28, 2009. It relates to my opinion that the concept "participatory democracy" is in fact a pleonasm! Indeed, according to me, democracy demands participation by the citizens. I justify this opinion in an article which I placed in the section "external references".

Now, somebody erased it on November 29, 2009 explaining that "Misplaced Pages is not a place to disseminate your own papers"!

- First, I would have appreciated being informed by this person when he(she) unilaterally decided to erase my contribution. He(she) could also have asked me why I feel this inclusion is usefull for all. Am I not supposed to be a responsible contributor?

- Second, does the fact that I am the author of this added reference prevent me automatically from being authorized to insert it? If yes, it is rather strange!

Best regards,

•  Not doneThis page is only for dealing with deleted articles. For removed content you need to speak to the editor that removed your edit or leaving a note on the article talk page. Spartaz 19:14, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

LEO Learn Enrich Optimize

The article was nominated and deleted under "section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company". But this is not the case LEO - Listen Enrich Optimize is a registered service mark and a new business consulting process which has received attention from various personalities and media.

The Unites States patent and Trademark Office - www.uspto.gov mentions LEO as - IC 035. US 100 101 102. G & S: BUSINESS CONSULTING RELATING TO IMPROVING BUSINESS PERFORMANCE. FIRST USE: 20051101. FIRST USE IN COMMERCE: 20051101

LEO - Listen Enrich Optimize was first introduced by Management Consultant and eminet author Subir Chowdhury in his book The Ice Cream Maker

And if this is restored, it should be restored to LEO Listen Enrich Optimize, and not LEO Learn Enrich Optimize — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arijit (talk • contribs)

The Money Masters

I am not sure why this article was deleted, but it was about an important documentary that points out exactly who in the world controls our money supply in North America. This article should not be deleted, there is no reason for it to be deleted, and it is important that the article stay up so as to further educate the American people as to how to solve our problems of inflation, debt, and financial crisis. There are a multitude of other articles which summarize similar documentaries:

http://en.wikipedia.org/Zeitgeist,_the_Movie#Zeitgeist:_Addendum

http://en.wikipedia.org/The_end_of_suburbia

http://en.wikipedia.org/Wal-Mart:_The_High_Cost_of_Low_Price

http://en.wikipedia.org/Who_Killed_the_Electric_Car%3F

Along with many more that I cannot possibly list within this message. It is to my understanding that Misplaced Pages prides itself in the free education of all people, so please, PUT THIS ARTICLE BACK UP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. REMOVE THE RESTRICTIONS, AND ALLOW THE COMMAN MAN TO SEE THE ARTICLE ONCE AGAIN.

•  Not donethis was originally deleted through a deletion discussion so this isn't suitable for REFUND. See Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/The Money Masters. If you want this back you will need to present a decent sourced draft to DRV. Since this has been recreated several times by a banned user I suspect the bar will be set higher for this one. Spartaz 17:32, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

• Okay, I am a new user on this forum and I do not know how to work any of the functions, or rules, on this site, and I want you to tell me personally why you think this article should be deleted. I would like to ask you if you have seen the video, because, in my humble opinion, this video needs to be seen by everyone, and I have withdrawn from my humble dredges of everyday life to ask you why this article has been deleted, and why the video doesn't deserve to get an extra 100,000 hits on the general internet as a result of this article. Again, I am asking this independent of all Misplaced Pages opinions and rules. I am an independent supporter of this video, and am not affiliated with the video or its creators. I am simply an independent, concerned citizen. Please send me a reply AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. JChuchman 07:34, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

• Anyone on the website who is capable of writing drafts to DRV with sources, please help me restore this article!!! JChuchman 07:39, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Don't understand why Wide Area Multilateration was deleted

Wide Area Multilateration - This page was deleted with the following reason: "A tag has been placed on Wide Area Multilateration, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Misplaced Pages. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article." The article simply described a technology, much like other pages that describe technologies (see "Multilateration", "TCAS", "ADS-B"). It does not promote a company, product, group, service, or person. If it was deleted due to lack of references, please let me know as there are a number of additional ones that can be added.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Ludmilovna (talk • contribs)

I don't see the unambiguous advertising here, so your best bet for an answer to this is to ask either the person who requested deletion, Ironholds (talk · contribs), or the deleting admin, Fastily (talk · contribs), if they can give you more information on this. HTH --Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:52, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

And I now see you've already contacted both of them.--Fabrictramp | talk to me 22:54, 29 December 2009 (UTC)

David Cole (revisionist)

First, I must admit right up front that I have never seen the deleted article. It was very short-lived (about a week from establishment to deletion, and the User that established it was similarly short-lived). I was surprised today when seeking an article on the subject, whom I regard as notable, and finding none. While I am not David Cole, nor have I ever met, seen, spoken to, or knowingly corresponded with him in person, I have some knowledge of what an accurate article on this subject would have contained. His work is very controversial, such that a person whose POV opposed Holocaust revisionism would favor suppression of information about him and his work. Most of his work is currently viewable on YouTube.

I reviewed the Discussion of the Deletion (3 weeks ago), and I was struck by something about the four votes to Delete: one was from the person who apparently tried to initiate the Deletion; two others were from Users now permanently blocked, of which one was a sock puppet for a User permanently banned at that time; and the last was from a User whose contributions I have some previous familiarity with whose NPOV in matters involved with the Holocaust I regretfully find questionable.

I request that this article be restored. If it is restored, it may confidently be expected to be Nominated for Deletion in very short order, at which time perhaps a more judicious consideration of the nomination may be undertaken.--Joe (talk) 15:50, 30 December 2009 (UTC)

Since David Cole (revisionist) was deleted as a result of the discussion at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/David Cole (revisionist), this is not something we can unilaterally restore here. If you think the discussion was closed in error, talk to the closing admin, JForget (talk · contribs), and then if you still aren't satisfied you can take it to deletion review. (But talk to JForget first, because if you don't, deletion review will kick out your request.) HTH. --Fabrictramp | talk to me 00:48, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

A.C. Read Golf Course History

Hi. Please undelete "A.C. Read Golf Course History" ... I was in the middle of standing it up this afternoon and had just posted a "talk" input to request it not be deleted while I was standing it up.... and ... an administrator deleted it. If sports history is not befitting wikipedia...let me know. If so, I think you are making a mistake and make sure you don't tell the book writers, magazine article writers, and the fans of golf. garryshaf — Preceding unsigned comment added by Garryshaf (talk • contribs)

Ayttm

This was deleted via PROD but there was no notification of the same (I was watching the Talk page as well as the article). There should be at least some advance notification/discussion before such an action is taken.

--Siddheshp (talk) 12:15, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

 Done - I don't know why you say there was no notification - the PROD template was on the article for the full seven days from 22 Dec. However, I have restored it per WP:DEL#Proposed deletion and will notify the editor who PRODded it in case he wishes to take it to AfD. JohnCD (talk) 12:38, 31 December 2009 (UTC)

Undeletion request for Ayttm

Ayttm

It appears that this page was put on PROD and then deleted after 7 days. I've checked with other people who've contributed to the page, and it turns out that no one was aware that it was on PROD or we'd have objected at that time. This may be due to the fact that it was put on PROD while most people were on Christmas vacation. Bad timing perhaps?

Anyway, the page is about an instant messaging application that is the default in at least one distribution of linux. It was also the first implementation of Fallback Messaging developed by Torrey Searle. Finally, it has been referenced in several newspaper articles around the world and at least on one international business news television program. I believe that this is sufficient to make the application "Notable".

The reason for the article's deletion was: "non-notable software package, marked as unreferenced on 7/2009"

It states that the page was marked unreferenced on 7/2009, however the page was referenced on the Comparison of Instant Messengers page until 2009/12/28 with this edit: http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=Comparison_of_instant_messaging_clients&diff=334778257&oldid=334431762

There are no comments for that edit.

I have also heard from the authors of other Opensource Instant Messengers that the pages for their apps were also deleted.
