Pump.fun

Pump.fun (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (XfD|restore)

The article was deleted due to a lack of sufficient reliable sources. However, new independent and reliable sources have been identified that address notability concerns, including coverage in the Nytimes, Wired, Bloomberg, Gizmodo, and Yahoo Finance. These sources provide substantial and independent analysis of the platform, demonstrating its notability under WP:GNG. I believe the article can now be reinstated in compliance with Misplaced Pages’s guidelines. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chiffre01 (talk • contribs) 19:44, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Confirming I'm aware of this as the most recent deleter, and see prior discussion on my talk page at User talk:Pppery#pump.fun. I'm going to let other deletion review regulars comment before making a more substantive comment. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 19:50, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• An assertion that "sources exist" without providing them is never enough to restore a page, but especially not for one deleted at AFD a week and a half ago. —Cryptic 20:54, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

  There were, admittedly, additional sources in the G4-ed versions that aren't in the deleted version. * Pppery * _{it has begun...} 20:59, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

  I was taking them at their word here that there were "new" ones. Almost all of the ones in the recreation long predate the afd. —Cryptic 21:15, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• (Original AfD nominator comment:) There are a couple of usable sources in the G4ed article, but there are also several sources that are being laundered through news aggregators. @Chiffre01: Just because something is syndicated by Yahoo! Finance or MSN does not make it more reliable; CoinDesk, CoinMarketCap, and Cryptopolitan are not usable. GorillaWarfare (she/her • talk) 22:15, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
• Overturn G4 and unsalt If there are new sources in a re-creation, it's not substantially identical to the deleted version. Now, if the same user keeps adding inadequate sourcing, that's a user conduct issue, and should be dealt with as such. G4 and Salt are blunt instruments best suited to when many people are trying to re-create and article. Having said that, I have no particular reason to think this will survive a new AfD, and would recommend it be worked on in draft space until everyone's satisfied about the sourcing. While that might not make everyone happy, it's better than out-of-process G4s or repeated AfDs, in my opinion. Jclemens (talk) 22:30, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Shay Albert Vidas

Draft:Shay Albert Vidas (talk|edit|history|logs|links|watch) (restore)

I recently created a draft titled "Draft:Shay Albert Vidas," but it was deleted under G11 (unambiguous advertising or promotion). I understand Misplaced Pages’s concerns about promotional content and would like to request that the draft be restored to my user page so I can revise it.

The draft was still in the draft stage and not yet published. I was working to present factual information about Shay Albert Vidas and his work in a neutral and encyclopedic manner. Unfortunately, the deleting administrator, Bbb23, did not provide feedback on what was considered promotional, and I was not given the opportunity to revise the content.

Additionally, I cannot contact Bbb23 directly because their talk page is restricted. I am also unable to post on the Administrators’ Noticeboard due to semi-protection and my account status. I have no way to resolve this issue without assistance.

I am committed to addressing any issues raised and rewriting the draft to ensure it meets Misplaced Pages’s neutrality and notability standards. I kindly request that the draft be restored to my user page for improvement. Thank you for your time and understanding. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shayvidas (talk • contribs) 00:14, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• Endorse, having not seen the deleted draft, but trusting the judgment of Bbb23, and being familiar with autobiographies. The originator should be able to reconstruct what he wrote about his own career if he didn't keep a copy on his computer. Robert McClenon (talk) 04:54, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
• Endorse but it doesn't hurt for someone to email him the deleted content. Jclemens (talk) 07:13, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
• Egregious spam. Endorse and do not provide the deleted content, on the slim hope he'll have to pay someone to write it again if he wants to use it elsewhere. —Cryptic 10:45, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
• Endorse and do not undelete. Vidas or his company may well be notable but nearly every single sentence of that article is unusable because it's 100% promotional (about the only one that would survive is the one about where and when he was born; even the sentence about his wife feels the need to eulogise her.)

  we are very known in israel, i can show you a lot of proof i'm not sure how to attach it,

  can i do another one, and you will tell me now if it will pass or not ?

  or adleast give me some info on What was wrong, so i will know to change it,

  i can do another draft and this time just tell me what to modify it ?

  would it be ok ?

  it's ok if it needs to be deleeted

  just to refrain from that happening again and again, can you look at a modified version i will write now and tell me what is wrong with it ? Shayvidas (talk) 14:19, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• “I cannot contact Bbb23 directly because their talk page is restricted”.

This is a failure of WP:ADMINACCT on the part of User:Bbb23.

Userfy or email. User:Shayvidas, ensure that you have enabled email. SmokeyJoe (talk) 11:29, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

SmokeyJoe I'm not entirely sure what else Bbb23 is supposed to do when your talk page history includes 57 protection entries from 21 different admins and 118 removals of offensive material via revision-deletion. Black Kite (talk) 13:08, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Me either. Create a special mechanism to flag a desire to talk? Give the DRV applicant some benefit of the doubt? SmokeyJoe (talk) 13:11, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

It's a tricky one. I'm sure there's some cunning way of getting around it, though. Black Kite (talk) 13:16, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• Shayvidas has recreated Draft:Shay Albert Vidas. It is tagged as G11. I'll let another admin evaluate the tag. As an aside, the user is auto-confirmed and could have posted to my Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:56, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

  the user is auto-confirmed and could have posted to my Talk page - that is incorrect. They are autoconfirmed now, but when they attempted to contact you, they had only 8 edits to their name - two edits short of the number needed for autoconfirmed. They made a genuine attempt to contact you, and when that failed - they tried to get help at the Help desk before bringing it here. Owen× ☎ 16:21, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

I appreciate all the feedback and understand the concerns about promotional content in my draft. My aim is not to use Misplaced Pages for advertising but to provide factual information about my career and contributions to watchmaking i have no reason to lie to you, this is 100% true. I am committed to rewriting the draft to meet Misplaced Pages's standards for neutrality and notability.

I would be grateful if specific examples of problematic content could be highlighted, so I can address them in a revised version.I dont want to be blocked, as i worked hours on all the text and I acknowledge past mistakes and am seeking guidance to ensure my next draft avoids similar issues can you please tell me what in my last draft was bad as in spacific sentences ?.

I also noticed suggestions about restoring the draft to my user page or emailing it for further revision. I would greatly appreciate this, as it would help me revise the content more effectively and align it with Misplaced Pages's guidelines. Thank you friends. --Shayvidas (talk) 18:16, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

I want to acknowledge Robert McClenon suggestion that I can rewrite the draft with a more neutral tone. I am more than willing to remove or rewrite any sections that were problematic.

I also want to address the point raised by User:Bbb23about contacting their Talk page. As Owen× correctly pointed out, I was not yet autoconfirmed at the time I attempted to reach out. I made a genuine attempt to resolve this issue and avoid any misunderstandings.

If it’s possible, I would kindly request the restoration of the draft to my user page so I can make the necessary revisions based on the feedback provided.

If this isn’t feasible, I would greatly appreciate detailed guidance on how I can approach a new draft that aligns with Misplaced Pages’s standards.

Thank you again for your time and understanding.
