Critical commentary on cover art and FFD closes when speedy deletion intervenes

Thank you for your remarks on Fastily's talk page (permanent link) and I have replied there. I would be interested in your reaction but maybe Fastily's page (which has a very rapid turnover!) is not the best place. Both the problems I mentioned are common at FFD and are not specific to Fastily although his lack of feedback exacerbates the situation. Thincat (talk) 10:34, 15 March 2012 (UTC)

Deletion review for File:Reg cox civvy.JPG

I have asked for a deletion review of File:Reg cox civvy.JPG. Because you closed the deletion discussion for this page, speedily deleted it, or otherwise were interested in the page, you might want to participate in the deletion review. --George Ho (talk) 03:14, 16 March 2012 (UTC)

Ted Robinson

Hello,

My name is Vitali Zatroutine, and I am a New Media student at Ryerson University, in Toronto, Canada. I work on media projects, and for one of my final exams, I have been instructed to create a false identity for educational purposes only. This is to help me develop skills on narrative, and to fully understand authenticity of an identity online. You deleted my page on Ted Robinson, an identity i created for a supposed "Invisible Person". This page was created entirely for my final examination. I understand you are very strict on creating a trustworthy community of information, but I do not plan on displaying anything offensive, or anything that might interrupt the flow of other pages. This is strictly educational. I would highly appreciate the opportunity to work on my assignment, and create a page for my false identity (even temporarily).

Thank you so much, this means a lot to me.

DYK for Grown-Up (EP)

On 21 March 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Grown-Up (EP), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that South Korean band F.T. Island's mini-album Grown-Up debuted at number three on Gaon Chart's monthly albums chart for January 2012 with one day worth of sales? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Grown-Up (EP).You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Zynga With Friends

I am curious why you moved Zynga With Friends (capital "W") and all its game titles (Words With Friends, Chess With Friends, Hanging With Friends, and Scramble With Friends to page titles with a lower case "w". If you check out each of the game titles in their respective app stores, you'll see they all have a capital "W". The Zynga With Friends website also indicates the proper studio title has a capital "W". I hope you'll consider reverting the page move.NinaSpezz (talk) 15:17, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Those articles were moved in accordance to MOS:CT. Because 'with' is a preposition, the first letter of the word should not be capitalized. This takes precedence over the way the game developer stylizes its game titles. — ξ 18:49, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

I understand it's a preposition, but the MOS:CT in no way indicate it takes precedence over the composition creator's stylization. If that is the case, perhaps the MOS:CT should be revised?NinaSpezz (talk) 19:21, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Misplaced Pages would have a lot of whacky article names if we started making exceptions to observe the stylization of the creator's work; SHINee instead of Shinee, the GazettE instead of The Gazette, DJ OZMA instead of DJ Ozma, or even worse, /\/\ /\ Y /\ instead of Maya. If you feel that MOS:CT could be reworded a different way that would better help other users in future cases, consider raising the issue on its talk page. — ξ 19:46, 23 March 2012 (UTC)

Avvasi Deletion

Hi there, in regards to the Avvasi page that was deleted this morning, I'm wondering how it a non-notable company and therefore deleted? Thank you (Kelliott14 (talk) 19:40, 26 March 2012 (UTC))

The text that was left on the article's talk page was as follows: "Article needs a little work, and I will see if I can clean it up a little later. Any other help would be good. The article *does* need better citations, from reliable sources. All the current citations do not establish notability by themselves. Won't tag for notability now, figuring (hoping) I can find some better references to add." — ξ 23:47, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

  • I've actually been meaning to clean up my archives. I had the habit of adding 25 threads per archive, but I want to start archiving about 50–80 bytes per archive. I wouldn't want to go any higher because I would probably end up having five archives. I can't look that unpopular, either. :( — ξ 19:17, 27 March 2012 (UTC)

I finally got permission from the original owner of this image to display it on the Kat Parsons Misplaced Pages page, but as it took longer than 7 days the image was deleted. Sorry I didn't contact you sooner, I meant to but I forgot!

Deletion of File:Coat of Arms for H.E. Archbishop Christoph Card. Schönborn.svg

Salutations!

You recently deleted the image of Christoph Cardinal Schönborn's Coat of Arms. The reason for doing so was that there was no evidence of Permission (F11). The Editor (Mlpearc (Please note that the name of the person (and file) is incorrect. We were both talking about Schönborn and not Collins) who nominated the picture up for deletion. I informed him that:

• I had put a request for permission at permissions-en@wikimedia.org as he requested.
• I made that image in question. Any files that I used to make the coat of arms were listed in the information info box and sourced. I also verified in their licensing that I was allowed to modify their files without having to ask for explicit permission.
• I asked if this was standard procedure as I have uploaded similar files on both Misplaced Pages and (especially) the Commons.

His response was simply that the matter had been resolved. Since I never had any problems with the other files, I assumed it was just an overeager editor who didn't read the info box and tagged the file. I waited for a response from Misplaced Pages Permissions but I never received one.

Can you please assist me in the correct way to proceed? I believe that the file does not deserve to be deleted and I would wish you can enlighten me on any errors in my logic/proceedings.

Thank-you very much.

Pierre Vogel

You deleted the article of the german islamist preacher Pierre Vogel because of a lack of nobility. That seems quite strange for me, as this man is the most active german islamist and extremely popular among young muslims, especially among those who recently converted to islam. He is often interviewed in the german press as "the evil islamist" and is believed to be one of the most influential radical muslims in germany, according to the german security authorities. Maybe he is quite unknown outside germany, but that should not be a reason to delete the article. From Germany, --Antemister (talk) 13:27, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

I think you mean lack of notability, not nobility. Anywho, prior to the article's deletion, two users agree on the talk page (before it was deleted) that the individual did not seem notable per WP:GNG. If you'd like, I can restore the article if you plan to work on it so it can meet the general notability guideline. — ξ 23:54, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Thought a correct the numerous spelling errors of my english... Anyway, I do not know the quality of the article, but deletion only because a lack of notability was not right.--Antemister (talk) 19:49, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Mephisto Award Deletion

I feel that it's a bit insulting to have a criteria as "Does not appear to be a notable award". Kodansha is a well respected and established publisher in Japan, so I would think that an award given out by one of it's magazines would be considered as legitimate. Not to mention the award itself has paved the way for a lot of famous Japanese detective novelists since it's an award given for their rookie status at the time. At the same time, after going over the articles for deletion, your claim of "Does not appear to be a notable award" doesn't fall anywhere underneath the accepted guidelines and as the article creator, I would have at least liked a message on my talk page so I wouldn't have to find out and get blindsided like I did just now. I realize that the page was a bit sparse, but that alone is no grounds for deletion, especially when the page is young and I was waiting for help with the translation of the Japanese Misplaced Pages page. 1Q84 (talk) 07:17, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

The deletion was not meant to devalue the magazine or its award in any way. An editor (not myself) proposed that the article be deleted under the rationale "Does not appear to be a notable award". That person was responsible—but not required—to notify you of the article's pending deletion. As the proposed deletion went uncontested for seven days, it was procedurally deleted. If you'd like, I can restore the article upon request. — ξ 22:29, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

I would appreciate if you could restore it very much. 1Q84 (talk) 14:44, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Hey I'd like some reason as to why you deleted the Enzo Martinez page. I see "your rules" for deleting an article and I think the Enzo page met them. It had plenty of sources for the content and was still in the process of growing and getting better. I hope you rethink this and know that I will be a constant editor of his page so that it adheres to Misplaced Pages standards. Thank you and please let me know because there are plenty of pages on European, South American, African, etc. footballers who have less content on their articles and no sources. Please reconsider.

Contesting a prod can be done before or after the article is deleted. The last line of WP:CONTESTED reads: If the article has already been deleted', please go to Requests for undeletion.

Deletion of The world is a beautiful place & I am no longer afraid to die

I'd like an explanation as to not only why this article was deleted but why it was ever even considered for deletion. This group of musicians is extremely well documented and can be found everywhere from music publications and online sources as well as youtube. Removal was done I suspect due to personal dislike, is highly irresponsible and reckless. I'm not sure what you're playing at here by removing this article.

TopTenWholesale

Hello Explicit,

I received notification from my office yesterday that not only our wiki page for TopTenWholesale.com was removed by you, but also a wiki page that was done on me - Jason Prescott. Yes, I am more than familiar and have read the wiki guidelines. There should have been no reason for the pull-down. This has been very embarrassing to me and our staff. After scouring around wiki, I was just shocked that there are pages that exist like: http://en.wikipedia.org/Chinavasion , http://en.wikipedia.org/Kole_Imports , http://en.wikipedia.org/Alibaba_Group. With ease, I could submit to you 100's of wiki's that are in clear and blatant violation of the TOS. It was rather humbling to see someone post wikis on our organization and my personal achievements. It was also shocking to see wikipedia take down content and referenced material that is / was valuable, factual, significant and credible.

It is understood that mistakes happen. If you would please re-consider posting the entries back up and make live - it would certainly be appreciated.

The wiki entries were on Jason Prescott and TopTenWholesale.com

Hi there. As far as I can see, I don't think I deleted any of these articles.

Most of these deletions occurred in 2007, long before I was an administrator myself. — ξ 23:31, 10 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello and thank you for the fast response. OK, so here you can see the page was pulled down April 8th : http://en.wikipedia.org/User:Jason_Prescott - and this image / file http://en.wikipedia.org/File:JasonPrescottLA.jpg belonged to the wiki on Jason Prescott that was pulled down. I can also see that 2 other admins pulled down the page on TopTenWholesale.com that was up for 2 months: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/TopTenWholesale.com - It just baffles me how any admin could make this error. All it takes is few strokes in google to confirm our significance and credibility. Can you please give me a hand to get this corrected? Thank you, in advance.

j TopTenWholesale (talk) 13:58, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

I deleted User:Jason Prescott because it was a red-linked redirect after DGG (talk · contribs) deleted the target article Jason Prescott. The image File:JasonPrescottLA.jpg works just fine, it just isn't currently used on any page. It seems that TopTenWholesale.com was deleted as it was written by Expewikiwriter (talk · contribs), a user who was engaging in paid editing, which is strictly forbidden on Misplaced Pages. Although the company may be notable, its article was written in a promotional manner, which met the criteria for speedy deletion as unambiguous advertising or promotion. In order for TopTenWholesale to merit an article, it must meet our guidelines for inclusion of articles concerning companies. In general, Misplaced Pages considers a topic to be notable if there exist multiple reliable sources of information on the topic, external to the subject itself. Once that happens, then there should be no problem with creating the article. — ξ 23:19, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Thank you so much for this info. Yes, of course we have a zillion' notable references about Jason Prescott and TopTenWholesale.com - I am not aware of anyone paying a writer for a wiki.

File:Iron Range Ironheads vs Flyers.png

Least in the Kingdom of Heaven?? LOL... what did you do? Anyways... I've been trying to get help with this and no one has helped me, at least usefully. I uploaded this image (that you just deleted) and a bunch of others (one of which is listed for F11 deletion on the 15th) with permission from the author of the photo to post to commons on Misplaced Pages. The conversation was over facebook. I put the conversation on the permission part of the template and it didn't seem to be an issue for months. A week ago an OTRS admin puts the image up for deletion and tells me that my conversation with the guy isn't good enough... I have to prove I'm not a thief or something. I contact the guy on facebook again and ask him to e-mail permissions @ OTRS and tell them I have permission... a couple days later he tells me he did on the 4th... which should have kept the image safe from deletion... it's the 10th... it got deleted... as far as I can tell, I've shown due diligence that I am not violating any copyright laws with these images... can you help me rectify this situation? It seems like a shame to put in all this effort for nothing. DMighton (talk) 00:26, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

I deleted tons of one user's subpages. I have become horribly unpopular with that IP. :( As for permission of the image, after reading the conversation, it seems that the author didn't specify which license exactly they released the images under. Stating "Creative Commons" by itself is insufficient. Creative Commons license#Original licenses lists the possible licenses, and only Attribution and Share-alike are free enough to be uploaded on Misplaced Pages. The other two (Noncommercial and No Derivative Works) would make the images eligible for deletion under F3 as unacceptable licenses. So, what needs to be done now is to have the author specifically state which Creative Commons license(s) she is willing to release her work under. If compatible with Misplaced Pages, that statement can be forwarded to OTRS and things should be sorted out shortly after that. — ξ 00:38, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Ok thanks. Hopefully he hasn't had enough of this license stuff... to people not associated with Misplaced Pages, they seem to find it confusing and alien. I've personally taken to just taking my own photos just so I don't have to deal with these "hoops" to jump through... but when the subject is too far away to take a pic myself... my hands are tied. Thanks again. DMighton (talk) 00:55, 11 April 2012 (UTC)

Hello! I am extremely new to wikipedia and wanted to start editing a while ago. I created an article about myself for practice but not realized it was not a sandbox article. The article in question is here here and I have tried to delete it myself but it still appears in searches. I was wondering if it is possible to either permanently delete or make it not appear in searches. Egemnator (talk) 00:27, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

File:Amet Han Sultan.jpg

Hey there,

The deletion review page of wikipedia suggested that speak to you concerning this file(File:Amet Han Sultan.jpg), thus I really want to ask; how come despite an argument made against the deletion of the file was it deleted without a viable reason? I find this to be unreasonable at best.

Thanks The Night and the Silent Water (talk) 21:46, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Your keep argument on the discussion page didn't really address the nominator's concern. The file was tagged with a non-free license and violated WP:NFG. Whether a deceased photographer would care about the copyright didn't really matter, as it's the copyright laws we're trying to abide by. Although you did assert that the image may be in the public domain, you did not verify that it was; as you argued to keep the file, the burden of proof to verify its copyright status was with you. — ξ 23:44, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

File:Ryad Boudebouz.jpg

Hi Explicit, you deleted the file I uploaded because of reason F11 (no permission). However, I emailed the permission letter to permissions-en@wikimedia.org and tagged the article with pending (meaning I sent the email in and I am just waiting for permissions to process it), so that it does not get deleted. However, you still went ahead and deleted it. Please restore it and give "permissions" time to approve/reject the picture. Thanks. TonyStarks (talk) 09:11, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

Article "List of trains run by Indian Railways" is long, unreferenced and links to several external internet sites

Hey, quick question for you. Should List of trains run by Indian Railways exist in its current form?

Sebwite (talk) 01:57, 24 April 2012 (UTC)

Various options were considered, but none were implemented.

you destroyed someone else's work unnecessarily

Explicit: you deleted a disambiguation page I created. While admittedly it was not the most important disambiguation page on Misplaced Pages, it definitely wasn't wrong for it to exist, and I can't believe you haven't got more important things to do than deleting other people's work when it doesn't need to be deleted. If you want to discourage people from contributing to Misplaced Pages, go ahead, you're doing the right thing. And if you're going to destroy someone else's work unnecessarily, you should at least clean up your mess and not leave broken links on other articles. Azylber (talk) 03:02, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Rio Turbio (disambiguation) was deleted because it was an unnecessary disambiguation page with only two items. Because these types of disambiguation pages are generally not needed, they can be speedy deleted as such. In fact, there's even a speedy deletion template for it: {{db-disambig}}. I hadn't noticed that it was also linked at Rio turbio (film), as disambiguated pages generally don't need any hatnotes. I will go ahead and remove that link now. — ξ 23:28, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

You're still missing the point, but it's explained very clearly in my previous message, so it's a waste of time for me to type it again. And apart from that point you're missing, you're also missing yet another point: how do I add the other entries I want to add to that disambiguation page, now that you've deleted it? If I want to add more entries, do I have to retype the whole page just because you decided to rush and delete it? Azylber (talk) 14:27, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

I'm not missing the point. The disambiguation page you created was tagged for speedy deletion by another user. It remained tagged for nearly eight hours. It met the speedy deletion criteria and was deleted as such. It's very straightforward. If you feel discouraged from editing because of one deletion that was well within policy, that's unfortunate. Should pages never be deleted in fear that it will "destroy" someone's work?

Is there any other entry on Misplaced Pages that currently exists besides Turbio River that would need to be disambiguated? If not, adding {{Distinguish}} or expanding the hatnote already on the Río Turbio will suffice. If more pages with the same title are created in the future, the disambiguation page can be restored upon request. — ξ 22:54, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

You're still missing both points, but nevermind, it's all clearly explained above anyway. I've done my best to explain it to you, but I'm giving up now.

Also note that 8 hours is not enough time for a deletion to be contested by the author. Unless you edit wikipedia as a full-time occupation...

Afaik there are a total of 4 articles (1 unwritten) that need to be disambiguated. But I can't add them because you rushed to delete a page that didn't need to be deleted.

Azylber (talk) 09:43, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

Bruce Herman File Deletion

Why was a photo that I took with my own camera, with permission of the subject, deleted?

The file you uploaded was tagged with a non-free license which, because the subject is a living individual, violated the first point WP:NFCC and was deleted as such. Unless you release the image under a free license, such as the public domain or a Creative Commons license, your image can not be used on Misplaced Pages. Additionally, because a copyrighted painting was also part of the picture, that would constitute as an unacceptable derivative work. — ξ 06:26, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

File copyright question

What is the general believe (if you may know) about photographs of paintings. I cannot figure out one way or another if the photo of a painting (one done in the US anyways) is allowed to be PD, or if it falls under the original painting's artist's copyright. I do not know if any of that makes sense, but hopefully you can help. Thanks -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 23:52, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

I believe you mean if it's an acceptable form of a derivative work. It depends on who created the painting, when it was painted, and when it was published. If it's a recently created painting (~70 years), the painting is likely still copyrighted. If it's older, it would depend on the aforementioned information. — ξ 23:58, 29 April 2012 (UTC)

Another question: The file File:PBB Protein UBADC1 image.jpg and many others like it are listed with the source: and as {{{PD-release}}. The only information on the site that I could find in reference to this is at . No where could I find the words Public Domain on the website. And I do not believe that the criteria of their conditions (see would really allow them to be Public Domain, but alas, I do not know. There are over 20 of these files uploaded by User:ProteinBoxBot which has two operators. What would you suggest? -- ТимофейЛееСуда. 00:19, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

Under the Usage Policies header, the text states "Data files contained in the PDB archive (ftp://ftp.wwpdb.org) are free of all copyright restrictions and made fully and freely available for both non-commercial and commercial use. Users of the data should attribute the original authors of that structural data." As such, the images uploaded by this bot seem okay to me. — ξ 00:49, 30 April 2012 (UTC)

J.X. Williams Article Deletion

Dear Explicit,

When consulting for a retrospective on the films of J.X. Williams, I was very alarmed to find the entry on his Misplaced Pages page to be deleted. Though Williams has been the subject of some controversy, I published a book with Noel Lawrence on the director in 2010. This book contained essays from nearly 20 film scholars and critics on Williams' contributions to cinema.

Here's a link to the book from which most of the article had been sourced: http://www.camionnoir.com/?p=detail_livre&ID=152

I'll be happy to share a PDF copy with you for your review. The book also will be coming out in a German edition next year.

Finally, I should mention Paul Cullum. He wrote the NY Times article on J.X. Williams back in 2005. If you would like to see it, I have a videotaped interview with him where he recants many of his previous statements in that article.

Please let me know how we could proceed on this discussion most productively.

Williams has endured undeserved obscurity for too long so I'd be very grateful if we could rectify this injustice.

You can contact me at je.deluxe1970@gmail.com and I'll be happy to provide extensive details on the life and work of this filmmaker.

Just as a clarification...

You declined the prod on The Warriors (gang). Did you consider the prod from when it had a totally different title and focus to be a previous nom? There were some moves in therem, and my view would be different title, different article. Doesn't matter much, as prods don't need a reason for removal, but I was just wondering. MSJapan (talk) 21:20, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

The article was previously deleted under that same title, see the log. The deleted version shows that it was about the same subject that was written nearly identical to the current page. Per WP:PROD, an article may be deleted via prod only once. — ξ 23:38, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Actually, an article that has survived PROD cannot be prodded again. This one did not (and was in fact recreated by an SPA), but it's not going to kill anybody to AFD it. MSJapan (talk) 06:50, 8 May 2012 (UTC)

Disputed fair use rationale

I have seen you tagged some album covers for being disputed like this. Could you tell me how to know a disputed one. I'm new to Misplaced Pages so I don't know very much. Thanks in advance--Morning Sunshine (talk) 09:25, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

I tagged alternate covers uploaded by Chikazuku as disputed fair use in compliance with the non-free content criteria, as Misplaced Pages's mission is to produce as much free content and to limit the amount of non-free content used in articles. Alternate covers from Japanese singles and albums are usually used for differing editions, like CD-only editions, CD+DVD editions, etc. My rationale points to these image violating the eight point of this criteria, which reads Contextual significance. Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding. In removing these covers, the reader does not lose any essential information, as it's still understood in the text of the article that multiple editions were released. If an alternate cover is subject to critical commentary from secondary reliable sources (for example, the alternate cover of Lady Gaga's The Fame Monster), then it may merit inclusion. But these covers don't have that, and they hardly ever do, which is why I tagged them for deletion. — ξ 22:57, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Xplicit,

Massimo Calabretti, the director & appointed representative of the G. M. Aicardi Foundation (owned by the daughter of the painter) has sent an e-mail to en-permissions through m.calabretti@gm-aicardi.com to give permission for use of all the images listed above. I understand there might be a backlog but we are currently setting up the foundation, the website and wikipedia page for the painter G. M.

Maximo98 (talk) 21:09, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Once an image is deleted for lacking evidence of permission, I'm not too keen on restoring it until OTRS confirms permission. As an example, an email for evidence of permission for File:Saint Paul's Cathedral 2012.jpg was also sent to en-permissions, but ultimately, the license was not suitable with Misplaced Pages and was deleted. I'm not sure of what the email says exactly, but I prefer to err to the side of caution when it comes to copyright. If the permission checks out, it will be restored on the spot. — ξ 22:57, 9 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi there! I'm here regarding the files File:Wae Ireoni.jpg, File:BoPeepBoPeepVersionB.jpg, File:YayayaVersionB.jpg, File:YayayaVersionC.jpg, File:T-araRolyPolyVersionB.png, and File:T-araRolyPolyRegular.png. Though I agree with the reasons why they should be deleted, I feel like the limited-edition single covers (E.G. Bo Peep Bo Peep version A and B) should only be removed and that the regular edition covers (File:JapanBoPeep.jpg, YayayaVersionC.jpg, T-araRolyPolyRegular.png) should be kept in the articles because it creates consistency and well, because they're the regular covers; the limited-edition singles are produced in a limited quantity. I've also created the article for the single "Wae Ireoni" which was released before Temptastic but uses the back-cover of the album. Best regards, Chikazuku (talk) 01:29, 10 May 2012 (UTC).

I, too, use the regular edition covers for Japanese releases (like Let It Go! and Neverland (song)). If you'd like, you can just go ahead and remove the limited edition covers from the articles and move the regular edition cover to the lead infobox image. The cover for "왜 이러니" seems fine now, though it should still be removed from Temptastic. — ξ 05:53, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
