Episerver Article Deletion
Hello - The Episerver (EPiServer) -- https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=EPiServer&action=edit&redlink=1 -- page was deleted by you in October 2015. The reason is -- "Expired PROD, concern was: No evidence of notability. Only one reference that might possibly be considered independent, and that is no more than an announcement of a business deal."
I am hoping to have this page restored. There is evidence of notability as one of the top web content management systems and ecommerce platforms, and you will see independent references below, including other Misplaced Pages articles. I work for Episerver and I am happy to update the article with relevant content and proper citations. Is there any way you can reinstate the article or make a recommendation on how I can get it undeleted? I'd appreciate any help you can offer. Thank you in advance. References on the Internet

Deletion of Aref Aghasi
In the deletion of the article of Aref Aghasi you stated that he has never played in a professional league. However, the Azadegan League is a fully professional league and has been since 2016.http://www.varzesh3.com/news/1333441/%D9%84%DB%8C%DA%AF-%D8%AF%D8%B3%D8%AA%D9%87-%D8%A7%D9%88%D9%84-%D8%AD%D8%B1%D9%81%D9%87%E2%80%8C%D8%A7%DB%8C-%D8%B4%D8%AF
Move Metro (design language)
@Rjd0060: I see that you protected the Metro design language article from being moved. I want to make a WP:BOLD move to Microsoft Design Language, as that appears to be the common and official name used by Microsoft and other news sources for at least 3 years, as you can see it is even stated the "Metro" is a defunct name, and there was a trademark dispute causing Microsoft to abandon it.

"Blast from the past"?
(Before I get to the point, I'm forced to admit I'm impressed with your mechanism to short circuit bitching & moaning about you deleting articles with expired PRODs. It's certainly worked with me!)
Howdy. Back in August 2015 you deleted John Young (cinematographer) stating "(Expired PROD, concern was: No obvious notability; run-of-the-mill.)" I understand the "Expired PROD" bit. Given that, among other things, the guy has discovered/identified two new parrots, I don't understand the "No obvious notability; run-of-the-mill" bit. Perhaps if you can put a copy of the deleted article into my user space I can work out whether there is scope to address the notability issue? Your thoughts?
